A Cuniosity. Our friend Dr. Gorton left with us a few days ago, some pieces of wood, being part of the trunk of a tree, which was found more than forty feet below the surface of the earth. Laborers were engaged in digging a well on the farm of Isaac Sandusky, a few miles east of town. -After digging through the soil and sub-soil to the depth of nine feet, they came to a bed of pure blue clay forty-two feet thick. While digging through this clay, which was so compact as to require the constant employment of the pick, they found the wood, embedded in the clay, at the depth above mentioned. The pieces we have somewhat resemble charcoal in appearance, though very different in quality. The wood looks as if it had lost its life by Iong seasoning down below , but has no appearances of ordinary decay. It may last longer than we ehal!, notwithstanding we have been hardened by the small pox. How lung that tree has b'en imbedded, we can't even guess. Perhaps it fell soon after the time when the waters covered the face of the earth. Who shall say ! Adulterated Mr.;)tciNi Congress, at the recent M.5.-ioii( passed a law to prevent the importation of lercign adulterated medicine, requiring all which .-.opear to b. spurious to be subject to scientific examivit.w:,. Wc have but httle IV.ith in any such law, but it mav tlo no harm. The Pa. Ledger says, it is to be hoped that this law will nut be construed in
to :a measure of protection to our own quacks, who,
ously contended for by other Senators. Cnllioun made one of his characteristic speeches ; maintained that shivery was a positive good in nil its aspect, religious, social, und political, and declared that opposition to its extension would without doubt dissolve the Union, and overthrow our form of government, 'in his opinion, more likely both than one." "He would sny to the South that they could never settle this question till they took the matter into their own hands." .Mr. Duller, of S. C, called upon the South to arm, ami urged Southern men to go to New .Mexico ami California with their slaves, in defiance of the anti-slavery proviso. Reverdy Johnson, of Md., expressed his belief that if slavery should be excluded from the new territories, that the days of the Union were numbered. Put all this Quattlcbum talk did not seem to frighten the other side very much. Nile justly threw tipon the South the responsibilities of making this question ; and Mctcalf ridiculed the idea that it would lead to a dissolution of the Union. Others opposed the incorporation of the amendment proposed, us a trap, and an unfair and unjustifiable munumvro on the part of tho South. Even Webster, who has done as much ns any other man to bring about this state of Illings, and who left the Senate in order to dodge the ante issue as presented in tho lato Compromise bill, having ascertained the direction of the public .sen timent of the North, now very bravely comes in at the death, and declares his unalterable and uncompromising opposition to the extension of the peculiar institution. He had no scruples of this kind when he helped John Tyler accomplish the "Texan iniquity."

Of course many, who knew not that the question involved the levying of a tax, for the Fiipport of a new system, voted yes, being in favor of schools, as a matter of course. In this way thousands were fhmlol out of their votes, by the j'i us fraud. This matter do! not .s'rike ns f.ireibly, until the insuHivg question was propounded ton-- at the polls.

Mir couiinnnication as the oran of the P ihiinoro Con-
biilum wloeh readied me only yesterday announcing in v nomination by lhat body as thu democratic cundnlato f ir the office of Vice I'rtsid-nt. per this distinguished mark of confidence nnd trust, I ton most deeply griitoful to my friends; and cannot but the more appreciate the honor done me, when 1 reflect that ibis nomination was made without my knowledge, while absent in a distant country, anil by the unanimous voice ,f the. convention. .My acceptance is a matter of course. Ii is at all times proper in a free Country, and at a crii- like this I ib-en it indispensable in wir own, that an aspirant to ofiicu should be distinctly understood on all
j important qm siions nf n oional policy, and my iiomiuaj turn for the oilic.e of Vice President lias, no doubt, been ; m ob' with a full knowh-dgo of mine. I My position while a member of Congress compelled ' me tii take a decisive, though not n conspicuous part, in ! all the h aduig questions ef the day. 1 might therefore
appeal to tin- past as the lest arid salest guaranty lor my j j fuliire political course. Sinne of thnPy questions are, j ! however, daily crowing in importance, nnd ns I cannot j ; consent to win the p-oi opinion of others by disguising ' j in v own, and .is I desisn tliis communication to be final, j il "may be proper lhat I should he more explicit. 1 feel ; : the more impelled to this course from tin; consideration that my action us a member nf Congress may not be ac- ; 1 cessihle to the public at large. !
I With this object in view I have examined carefully the ; .. J... . .... i
proceedings ol the invention by which I was notni- , nated. 1 recognize in the resolutions passed by that j bodv, tho great hue of Separation between the Demo- 1 cia!ic and W hig parties lines thai should ever be kept before the people, i.nd which are so plainly laid down in the resolutions referred to, that tho wayfaring cannot err j
I therein. These resolutions have been widely circulated, and are within the reach of all. I dorm it Mifiicient to j i sav, that they meet my entire and unqualified upprob.v j ' tlon j

There appears to exist uo doubt cf thc election of Rcid, the democratic candidate for Governor, though
reports conflict as to which party has thc Legislature. Tiie telegraphic lines being under the control of whigs, it is very hard to get returns favorable to democracy. For instance, they are taking about whig gains in Indiana, at the cast ! Vermont. Horace Everett, formerly whig member of Congress, and Ex-Governor Sladc, of Vermont have both repudiated Taylor, and at a convention held at Middlcburg,on tho 1st inst., vindicated their course
in refusing to pupport him. They are both men of
talents and high standing, and their new attitude will influence the action of many of thc whig party in Vermont. We think Taylor's chances for losing thc vote of the State arc very good.

as they hopped over, and hegan, There goes one" there gj's two" 44 there goes three" there goes old Ewe " " there goes a black one" there gos a whole heap," and " curse them, there they all go!" If Taylor reads the papers, wo reckon he can join in the exclamation "curse them, there they all go !" He is sure of no State but Kentucky.
CO' Ihe Dayton Journal, a federal paper of the Ploodhouud stripe, utters the following : The principal electioneering capital used against Gen. Taylor in Indiana is manufactured out of the circumstanced that he pained the battle of Dueu.i Vista uftcr thc 1 lousier Regiment ran away." This Taylor whelp can very safely repeat Taylor's infamous alander in Ohio, but ho would not dare to wag his lying tongue in tho same manner this side of the State line.
