BY TELEGRAPH. From the Madison Paper. Washington, Anmist 1. Sexatb. Mr Douglas movel that an independent till for the admission of California be taken up for the purpose of making it the special order. Agreed to, yen 37, najs 22. Mr. Douglass then moved to make it the special order for this lay, and every l;iy hereafter until disposed of. Mr. Atchison moved to- amend by striking out " today," and inserting "Monday." Rejected, veaa 14, fUVS 30. Mr. Atchison said Mr. Douglass' motion would supersede the Omnibus Bill, which, was the order for 12 to-day. Mr. Hale said the Omnibus was not yet engrossed. Mr. Foote wanted to take Texas first. "California could never pass. Parliamentary measures elsewhere would defeat it. Mr. Douglass motion was finally carried. Mr. Atchison moved that when the Senate adjourn, it be until Monday, hut the motion was withdrawn. The California bill was then taken up, and made the special order for to-day and every day hereafter until disposed of. Mr. Foote moved to amend by striking out after the enacting c lause and insert that part of the Omnibus Bill, relating to New Mexico and Texas. Mr. Dousrlass moved to amend by inserting the third section of the Omnibus Bill relating to the public domain of California. The latter amendment takes precedence of Mr. Foote's. Mr. Foote moved to amend tho amendment bv inserting a proposition offered bv him to the Omnibus Biil providin that California shall not exercise jurisdiction over the Territory south of 33 de. 30 min. He made an appeal to all friends of the Compromise to sustain the bill. - .Mr. Clay followed, saying that the Senate had before it a measure of peace, calculated to harmonize all discordant feelings. That measure had met a fate, not altogether unexpected, which because of the country, he deeply deplored. He did not mean to inquire into the measure of tho responsibility of those whose action had defeated the bill, and how it was defeated was too well known. The proposition of the Senator from Maryland Pearce yesterday was the immediate cause of that defeat. He Clay had said from the first that he was in favor of the aJmission of California, and he was so still. Had Mr. Foote's proposition this morning been received in the proper spirit, he Clay would have voted for it: but under all circumstances he would now be compelled to withhold his support from it. He desired now to say that he intended to lo unal.irmed hy anv menaces either from individuals or States. If anv individual State should array its arrows against the L'nion, he was for testing the strength of our Government, to try whether it was a practicable Government that could sustain itself. Applause. If blood was to le spilled, whose fault was it? It was the fault of those who raised the standard of disunion. As long as he had an arm and voico to raise, that arm and voice should be raised in support of the Union. Applause. He was lor pulling down any and all opposition to the Federal Government. Mr. Clay said he hoped the measures would be passed separately; and in conclusion he declared his opinion that the boundaries of California are suitable and require . no alteration. Mr. Pearce admitted that the defeat of tho bill was subsequent to his proposition, but he denied that he was to be justly held responsible, though he would shrink from no responsibility properly attaching to bim. Hi proceeded to defend his course." He had told Mr. Dawson and Foote-that if Dawson's amendment prevailed, providing that the Territorial Government of New Mexico should not rf into operation east of the Rio Grande he could not vote for Mr. Bradbury's amendment, to which that was appended. Ho told them it would defeat the bill. Hid Senators from Texas riven their assent to a proposition for the araendrnent which he offered yesterday, the bill would not have lcen defeated. They chose to refuse any tliin that did not come up to their demand and upon them rested the responsibili ty. He acted as he believed to be his duty. Mr. Foote's amendment, restricting the boundaries of California to 35-30 was debated till adjournment without taking any vote. Hocse. Mr. Stanton reported a bill to establish a line of steamers on the coast of Africa for the suppression of the slave traffic, and the promotion of commerce and navigation, which was referred to the Committee of the Whole. The House then went into Committeo of the Whole tm the for l;hcut ion bill. Five minute speeches were made, when at 4 o'clock t'ie Committee- rose and reported the bill to the House without amendments. A message was received from the Senate, stating that they had passed the bill establishing a central government for Utah. A jreneral laughter and much confusion ensued, and inquiries were maJe, such as, Where is the Omnibus? II js it broke down? Amid this scene the House adjourned. Washington, Aug. 2. Sexate. After unimportant business the California bill was taken up, tho question leing on Mr. Foote's amendment to restrict the boundary of Texas to 35-30. Mr. Berrien soko in favor of the amendment. Mr. Foote followed, and made some remarks altout the denunciations which had been heard in the Senate and elsewhere against traitors and treason. He said it va-av important to be understood that the United States Government was a government of force 45 well as law, and would maintain itself against all traitors. ' Mr. Berrien thought tho most effective way of destroying the Uni n was to raise threats of employing a military force to put down the movements of a minority of the people. Mr. Foote, in answer, referred to tho employment of iorce to suppress Hay's rebellion in Massachusetts shortly after the revolution. Mr. Berrien was explaining, when Mr. Winthrop rose and said Massachusetts put that rebellion down by her own arms and he indulged the hope that if anv insurrection shoirlJ occur in any State now there would he patriotism and strength enough in its Government to suppress it without the aid of the General Government. Finally Foote's amendment was lost, 23 to 33. Mf-. Öoualass' amendment relative to the public domain was then agreed to. The tjupstion recurring on Mr. Foote's motion to snlititute tor the bill the New Mexico and Texas portions of the Omnibus Bill, Mr. Rusk spoke in opposition to the conjunction of these measures. Mr. Foote, interposing, withdrew his motion. Mr. Pearce gave notice that he would on Monday in

troduce a bill to establish a Territorial Government of New Mexico and settle the boundary of Texas. Adjourned till Monday. Hocse. The California bill was laid aside by a vote of 93 to 4!, and The Indian appropriation bill was taken up ns in Committee of tho Whole. Amendments were discussed and without coming to a conclusion, the Committee rose and the House adjourned until to-morrow. Cincixxati, August 5, 8 P. M. The river has risen six inches. There were heavy rains on Saturday night The interments for the last forty-eight hours were sixty, including ten of cholera and thirty-one children five years of age. Washington, August 5, 8 P. M. Hocse. The House was engaged all day in committee of the whole on the post-ollice appropriations bill. The debate on the bill was uninteresting. Without coming to a conclusion, the committee rose and the House adjourned. Senate. After the transaction of the morning business, the Senate resumed the consideration of Mr. Cass's resolution in relation to the exercise of civil authoiity by military officers except under the act of Congress. Mr. Davis, of Miss., opposed the resolution in its present form. It was either too broad or not broad enough. The exercise of civil authority by military officers Mas often absolutely necessary, although he was himself opposed to the exercise of any such, anthorifv. He replied to the attacks made by Mr. Houston upon Gen. Taylor and the troops under his command with much warmth, observing that the Senator from Texas had showed himself supremely ignorant of the discipline of the camp, and as supremely unjust. He considered each- of the points presented by Mr. Houston, disproving every statement adverse to Gen. Taylor by reference to official document and on authentic statements of facts. In concluding, Mr. Davis paid a most brilliant and beautiful tribute to the memory of Gen. Taylor. The further consideration ol the resolution was postponed nntil to-morrow. Mr. Pearce, in pursuance to previous notice, asked tnd obtained leave to introduce a bill making proposals to Texas, for a settlement of her western and northern boundaries. Mr Pearce said it was evident this question of the boundary of Texas was the cause of mat h of tho difficulty of the past session, and it was the main cause of the defeat of tho compromise bill. Ho thought it better to give each and crery measure a consideration nnon its merits. He had therefore presented a bill for the ndjostmont of the boundary of Texas simply and alone. He explained the bill, stating and defining the boundaries proposed. In consideration of ten millions of dollars Texas surrendered all her territory north of 36 30. He was among those who ldicved that Toxns had no rights tn the territory of the Rio Grande, but she certainly hnd claims, for the surrender

of which, together with the cession of territory north of

her pr-.-posed northern boundary, he proposed to pay her ten millions, to bo applied to the payment of her debts, incurred in the prosecution of her revolution. Having concluded his remarks, the California bill was taken up in committee of tho whole, and no further amendment having been offered, that which was made in committee, relating to the publio domain, was concurred in. The question w as stated to be on the engrossment of the lull. Mr. Mason said he bad intended to make no further opposition to the bill. It would remain for those whose rights are affected by it to determine upon their course. His only object now in rising was to ask the postponement of the question until to-morrow, as his colleague was absent. Mr. Douglass would accede to tho proposition, with the understanding that the vote should be taken tomorrow. Mr. Mason said he was authorized to make no arrangement and proposed none. He only spoke for himself. Mr. Yulee Minified that ho had no objection to the engrossment of tho bill, but he must object to taking the vote on its passage to-morrow. Mr. Foote, in the course of his remarks, washed his hands from all responsibility for the passage of the bill, asserting that the line of thirty-five dejrees thirty minntes could and would have been run through California, except for the action of certain Southern Senators. This remark incited a discussion between Messrs. Foote, Butler, Soule and Mason. Mr. Hamlin expressed a hope, if there were no amendments to be offered, that the question upon tho engrossment of the bill would be taken to-day. Mr. Yulce said he had an amendment to offer, which he desired to submit some remarks upon. He hoped the further consideration of the subject would be postponed until to-morrow. Mr. Dayton hoped that no postponement would be assented tOj but that the Senate would go on to dispose of the question. There were more friends than opponents of the bill absent. Mr. Dawson submitted a few remarks for the purpose of showing that a change in the boundary of California mijrht have been made, as it was in the case of Michigan, without remanding California. After further debate by Messrs. Foote, Sonic, and Jeff. Davis, the latter of whom said he gloried in the defeat of the omnibus bill, Mr. Atchcson moved an adjournment, which was negatived yeas 13, nays 21. After further debate, upon an appeal by Mr. Berrien, the Senate adjourned. Philadelphia, Aug. 3. Erie Railroad Accipext. The men killed by this accident were four in number, namely, T. Clapp, of Parisville, Ohio, his nephew, H. Clapp, "Mr. Randall, and breakman Hutch ; condurtor not seriously injured. Out of 113 beef cattta, 446 sheep, and 265 hoars on the train, about 25 cattle and 170 hogs saved, making the number lost SS beeves, 289 sheep, and 95 hogs. Execution and Confession of Dan. II. Pearson. As stated by telegraph, Daniel H. Fearson, who murdered his wife andf twin daughters, on the morning of the llthof April, 1349, at Wilmington, Massachusetts, was, on Friday week, executed in the jail yard at East Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Boston Traveler of the 26th u!t., gives the following account of the last moments, with his confession: Early this morning tho jail yard at East CnmbriJsc was surrounded by a crowd of people, anxious to see th? execution of Daniel II . Pearson, which was to take place between the hours of seven ami eleven. Only alout two hundred were admitted, linwevcr, inside the walls of the jail, which is so situated that the sea.löld cannot be seen from without. Quite a number of yojns; men and Ihvs, ho ever, covered the roof of an adjoining house, and with clamorous exclamations, interrupted the last religious services with the prisoner. The reading of the death warrant and other forms having been complied with, the cap was drawn over his lace, just as some indistinct words came from his mouth. A moment afterwards, at twenty minutes pa.'t ton, the fatal spring was touched, and the body of Pearson was hunched into the air, the fall being ahotit eight fett. There was very little of any struggle after his fall, and it seems probable that his death was easy. Pearson was about 45 years of age, and has one daughter, an interesting girl of 17 years of age, still living in Boston. PEARSON'S CONFESSION. Jail, East Cambridge, July 25. 130. I am about to appear before God. I wish to unburden my soul and free my conscience of whatever I ourrht. With all my heart, and unJer the eye of my Maker, who will judge me soon, I declare as follows, truly, of tiie death of my wife, Sat ah B. Pearson, and of my" two twin children, Sarah and Lydia. I"confcf 3 that mtf -rlf alune took Hit Hoes of my wife and ttro children, on the morning of the 11th of April, Itctween the hours of two and four o'clock. This is the time which I did it, as near ns I can recollect, and these are the principal circumstances. On the 10th of April, having drunk ale to excess, I went to mv brother Henry's, in Broruueld street, took an umbrella, kissed my daughter Melissa, told her I -was going to Providence, and parted. Then I went down Tremont street and Temple place to a club house and got a pack of cards; then I went down Tremont street and struck over to the Providence depot, and inquired when tho cars started and loll ; then I went to Boylston street, obtained a shoc-knifo at a shoemaker's shop, and then obtained a vial of laudanum at an apothecary's store; then I went to Merrimack street and got a bottle of gin; then I went to the Lowell depot and left in the cars for Wilmington, I think about six o'clock in the evening. On arriving at Wilmington I asked when the cars left in the morning for Boston. Some 0110 answered, and handed me a " Pathfinder." I then left for my house, where my wife and two children were living. I went over through the woods, and, stupified with liquor, got lost. It was a kind Providence to hold me back. Not knowing where I was when I got through the woods, I looked round for some time aud saw my barn. I went to the lwirn, and, looking alout, saw a lisht in my house. I went and tapped on the window. Martha inquired, "who is there?" "Daniel," I answered. She came to the door and let me in. After shaking bands with her I sat down. She got me a cup of tea and I took supper. Shortly after she retired. I sat np a little while by the stove, and then went to bed with my wife. I drowsed a little, arose, went out, and returned again to bed. Between two and four o'clock I did tho fatul deed. After the first thrust, which I think did not wound her, Martha rot the knife away from me. I know not how, and held it by tho handle. It was hard to get it again; and, in the dark, 1 seized the blade in my hinds, and, wrenching, split the handle, and got the blade from her. If the handle had not been broken the deed miirht not have been done. In doing this, my hands were cut badly. I then overcame her, and in the struggle she cried out, ,k O, Daniel, Daniel ! dont murder mc murder, murder !' I pierced her in the neck. After she was pierced, she trot on the floor from the bed. She cried, " O my God !'' Bleeding, she fell on the lloor and died. Do not know how the pillow came under her. Sarah slept on the bed with my wife. She awoko and cried. I pierced her also in the neck, and she died. Lydia awoke, crawled upon the bed, saying something and laughing, I believe. I put my hand on her head, and pierced her in the neck, and this lamentable deed was finished. How could I have done it ? Now I acknowledge, as I have often anil repeatedly, that Martha, my wife, gave me no cause, "neither in any manner nor at any time, for doins this deed. I was not jealous of my w ife. All her children, without doubt, were mine. She was a rood woman, and deserved well of me. I cannot tell why I did the deed, except that I was led awny. Before leaving the house, I kindled a li?ht to dress me. I left my wife on the floor, having filaced the knife in her hand, the children on the bed, the audanum by her on the table, with the cards and notes; one of which I signed, intending to make the impression that Martha, after destroying the children, had herself committed suicide. Then going out of the back door, I crossed the woods to a brook, and there washed my person from my wife and children's blood. I then changed my shirt, which was torn in the struggle and bloody. The blood on my clean shirt-sleeve was my own blood. After wiping myself with tho shirt which I took off, I rolled it up, carried it to Boston, and sunk it iu the water just lclow tho Providence depot. (Signed) Daniel II. Pearson. Redaction of Postage.

The Mischief Maker. BY CHARLES DICK F. X 8. Between the rivers Kistnah and Beebma in the Deckhan, surrounded by wild rocky bills, lies the town of Sborapoor, capital of a State of that name, inhabited by a people who have generally been considered lawless, superstitious and quarrelsome. Of late yers they bare been more industrious and peaceable, and though still an excitable race, may be said to be advancing in the art3 of peace. It was during a more remote period, when few strangers ever ventured to penetrate tbo country, that a weary looking traveler, covered with dust, entered one of the gttes, and sat down for a while at the side of the well. He then proceeded to take off hi.i waistband and turban, washed his head and Iiis feet, drank of the cool refreshing water, combed bis bead and mustachios, and spreading- a small carpet, on which he laid his trusty sword, drew from his wallet a neat little muslin skull cap; then seated himself cross-legged, lighted his pipe, and began to look very comfortable indeed. In the meantime there were not warding many idle and curious people, who having first at a distance observed the movements of the stranger, approached him nearer and nearer. But he seemed to take little notice of the crowd, and appeared absorbed in a sense of his own enjoyment, taking long whifis of his pipe, and looking as if he had made a considerable progress towards the third heaven. At length a respectable looking man, who had come un, drew nearer than the rest, and aA'cd him from whence he had traveled and whither he was going? What he wa3 seeking in Sborapoor, and whether he was a merchant, or merely came to look about him? But the questions ended in smoke, being answered only by whiffs. m Then came another still bolder man, and said, "Sir, the heat is great; be pleased to come with me to my house and repose yourself there, and I will give you a nice cool place in which you may sleep." Upon this the stranger drew hi J pipe from his mouth, and replied, " You are extremely kind, good sir, and I am really grateful to you for your proffered hospitality; but the tact is, I don't believe you would wish to have me in your house, did you really know who I am." And thus saying, he rolled his eyes about, twisted up his moustachios, stroked his beard, and assumed such a mysterious air that an indescribable terror seized the bystanders; so much so, that in falling hastily back, some of them tumbled down, and others tumbled over them in a very ridiculous manner. "He's a thief," whispered one. "Or a Thug," said another. " Or an evil spirit in the form of a man," observed a fourth. " At all events, doesn't he look like one who has killed another.'" In short the alarm became general, and several deemed it prudent first to sneak off and then take to their heels. A few, however, of the bolder spirits kept their ground; ant', teeing that the stranger did nothing but take long whiffs from his jipe, sending the smoke peacefully curling over his beard and mousfachioM out of both bis nostrils, they regained their confidence, and began to think that after all he might be some important personage; who could tell? So after a little pudiiug and elbowing among themselves, a man was thrust forward, under an idea that something might come of it; but no, the stranger appeared a unmoved as ever. Then another, who had screwed up bis courage to that point, boldly advanced, and thus spoke " Do pray, sir, tell us who upon earth you may be." No answer. Then the man who had offered a sleeping place in his house, chimed in, an 1 said, "Aye, sir, do let us know who or what you may be. I assure you we are none of us at all afraid of you!" And with these words he twisted up his moustachios, and tried to look as fierce and bold as possible, while his knees were knocking together, and his heart fluttering all the while. On a repetition of these questions, however, by both these men, the stranger, with infinite gravity, took the pipe from his mouth, and thus spoke : " Are you not too much frightened to hear." The runaways, however, bad departed, and those left behind seemed determined not to follow them; more especially as tho stranger had made no sign a3 if he would draw bis sword; neither did they think he looked at all so horrible now. They therefore, one and all called out, "Xo! we arc not a bit afraid, let ui hear!" "Well, then," exclaimed the stranger, taking a long puff at his pipe, "strange as it may appear to you all, my name is Mischief Makeh! And what is very extraordinary, whatever 1 do, wherever I go, wherever I am, 1 ulicays create mischief, I

always havs created mischief, and shall continue to do so to the very end of my life " And upon this be rolled Iiis eye3 and puffed away at his pipe harder than ever. " Oh, is this all," cried the party, " is this all?" ' For the matter of thai," said an active little man with twinkling eves, " you need be under no uneasi ness whatever. I defy you to invent more mischief here than we have already, for we are all more or less at enmity with our neighbors; and as our fathers and grandfathers were the same, we conclude it must be owing to something that can't be changed; for instance, the air or water of our town; so set your heart at rest, and coiae alcng with us, and we'll "take care of you." Well, rejoined the stratiger, " I am very glad indeed to hear what you say of your own town; for, to be candid with you, it is exactly what I henrd of you an as 1 came along, ana mis maue me uunK mat in a place w here all were mischief makers and busy bodies already, I could have nothing to do but (for once in my life) live in peace. However, don't trust mc that's all I have to say and if any evil arises-from my visit, turn mo cut, ant I'll seek a home elsewhere." An old Brahmin had come up in time to hear tins avowal. " 'Tis very strange," said the wise man. "This fellow is surely a magician, and may set all the rocks of Shorapoor dancing and tumbling about our cars fomo day. Turn bini instantly away, or it may be the worse for us all." "No, no," shouted the multitude. "That would be inhospitable. Let him remain, and w c shall soon see what he can do." The little active man now came forward again, and said, slyly, "Sir, if you really an such a mischief maker as you describe yourself to be, suppose you were to give us a little specimen of your power just some trifling matter to judge by." " What, note?" &aid the stranger. " Aye, nmc!" exclaimed all; " and the sooner the better." "Well, be it so," said be; "let me put up my things and come along." And with this he arose, packed up, girded on bis sword, and strods majestically forward, followed bv a crowd continually increasing as they advanced further into the town. " Now, don't puh or press upon me so much," said the stranger; "but observe what I do, and watch consequences." So they let him proceed, and as h.s advanced, they soon perceived that he was forming some deep plan, particularly as he paused every now and then with his forefinger between his teeth, and nodded, and wagged bis bead, as much as to say " I have it!" Upon which he made straight for a shop kept by a man who sold flour and such like thing-a. and accosting the dealer, inquired, with great civility, whether he had any hon-y 1 " That I have, sir," replied the shopkeeper, "plenty, fresh from the comb; only taste it, and I'm sure you'll buy. Here, sir, look at this beautiful jar, full of the finest honey that ever was seen in Sborapoor." " It looks well," replied the stranger, dipping- his hand in; "and does not taste amiss;" saying which he gave bis finirer a careless kind of shake, but ho knew right well what he was abouf, as a little lump' stuck upon the wall. " It really is good," said the Mischief Maker, " Give me a small pot of it, that I may take it home to my children." While the shopkeeper was filling a small new pot, over w hich be tied a fresh green leaf, the people w ho had been following, came up and said, " Sir, you are only making game of us; yon arc giving us no 1roof of what you said. What mischief is there in mying a little pot of honey?" ?. . " Be quiet, my good people, and content yourselves for a couple of minutes, while I get my change, and put my purchase in a safe place, and you will soon sec something wait here, and I'll be back to you directly." The Mischief Maker vanished in an instant. Now it happened that this shop was a mere shed of a place, projecting into the street, from the wall on which the honey htl been thrown; nor had the tempting bait been long in there before it was smelt out by a large hungry fly, which had been upending many fruitless hours buzzing about the dealer's jar, 60 carefully was it always covered. Here v. as a glorious opportunity for a fir.c Mipfr, and down he n 1 , . 1 .1 f 1 .1 .

came upon it with eager appetite without looking about htm as he ought for over his Lead, under the cover of the wall, among old chinks and cobwebs, there dwelt a wily, dust-colored lizard, who enjoyed a fly beyond every thing else in the world, and had been particularly unsuccessful inflv-catching all day. Watching, therefore, till lhe fly had buried his mining apparatus pretty deep in the noney, he crept down quietly, looking as a bit of old plaster as possible, but for those bright eyea of his, which, in his eagerness for the capture, were intently fixed upon the fly. Unlucky wight! Little did be think that those very eyes had attracted the attention of a tine tabby -cat, who but a few minutes before, with blinking eyes, presented a perfect picture of contentment, but now roused by a sudden temptation, was stooping stealthily down as she beheld the lizard, for whom she had so often watched in vain. Down stole the lizard on stole the cat; so that here at the same moment were three creatures so bent upon indulgence that they never even thought of looking about them ! Alas !

no 1 here was a sworn enemy ol the cat's approaching also, (under cover of a large basket) in the shape of a mischievous white dog, kept by a very quarrelsome man on the other side of the street. This dog was the terror of all the cats in the neighborhood, and most of all of the flour dealer's; so often had he chased her, and so often experienced the bitter disappointment of seeing her climbing up the posts of the shop, and then spitting at him lrom the top of the shed. Infatuated lizard ! Wretched fly ! Betrayed pussy ! She heeded not the sly creep of the dog, so intent was she upon the successful issue of her spring upon the lizard. The fly was gorging himself w ith honey. He alone partook not of the intense anxiety of the lizard, the cat, and the dog. He partook only of hon?y! The crisis at length arrived. The lizard made its nimble pounce at the fly. The cat sprang at the lizard. The lizard missed its footing in consequence, and would have been the cat's portion fly, honey, and all but for the dog's sudden attack upon puss. Here was a scene ! The lizard falling to the ground, was at once involved in the consequences of the quarrel between the dog and cat. What were fly or honey to him at the moment, when in a state between life and death he crept back sore and wounded to his chinks and cobwebs! The fly might or might not have escaped. Not so the cat, now sorely worried by the dog, in spite of all her outcries and all she could do in the way of biting and clawing; for it was an old score the dog was paying her off, and that might soon cost her her life, if her master had not rushed out of his shop with a broomstick, with wliich he began to belabor the dog. Now the owner of the dog had been as long at enmity with the man of flour and honey, as the dog had been at enmity with the cat, and probably longer. Of course, therefore, when he beard his animal's cries, and saw the punishment inflicting, he armed himself with a broomstick also, and rushing across the street, gave the flour-dealer such a crack upon his head, as knocked him down as flat as a pancake. " Take that, you villain," said he, " for it's a debt I've long owed you!" "Have you?" said the Hour-dealer's son, as he rushed out with a cudgel in bis hand. " Thei tell me how you like thai" giving him such a hearty whack across the shoulders that he was fain to drop bis broomstick. Yetthe blow had hardly been given, before a friend of the dog's master ran up w ith a drawn sword, and would have made mincemeat of the flour-dealer's son, but for a soldier, who cried out, " Shame, thou coward, and a son of a coward, who would attack a youth with only a stick in his hand, and you armed with a sword! Shame on you! It's just like you rascally Hindoo fellow s, w ho pretend to be soldiers, and as much like soldiers as that poor cat. Why don't you fry me?" " Why not.-" replied the man. "Do you think I'm afraid of such a bully as you? Come on, you scoundrel, and I'll show vou wbat difference there is between a cat and a Hindoo!" Upon lids the soldier drew bis sword, and both began to cut at each other in good earnest. On this all the people cried out, "Murder! Murder!" and a great many soldiers running to the spot, were soon engaged, always attacking the Hindoos, w ho were on the dog's side, and the Hindoos the Mussulmans, who were on the side of the cat; and and wherever a Hindoo and a Mussulman were fighting, the Hindoos aided the Hindoo, and the Mussulmans the Mussulman; and the consequence was the death of many on each side, and the wounding of most of the foolish, quarrelsome people engaged. Of course such a hubbub as this could not be continued long without its being reported to the Kajah, w ho forthwith hastened from his palace with Ids bodyguard and some horsemen, and soon put a stop to this terrible fray; and all the ringleaders were forthwith seized and tied together, and marched off to prison, there to be kept closely confined till the sad business should be fully inquired into, and the cause of so dreadful a riot ascertained and fixed upon the guilty. All that night, therefore, were the magistrates and Kdice-ofiicers hard at work listening to evidence, ut they did not advance a single step in the business ; no, nor for several days after, notwithstanding the great impatience of the Tiajah, to whom they could only report from time to time the bearing of nothinsr but the words, "Cat, Dog," "Cat and Dog,", " Dog and Cat,"" Dog,' Cat. A very similar feelinir, also, was entertained by the lawyers who were called in, and who, after intense application, declared themselves doubtful, vrry doubtful so much was advanced and really to be said and supported by various precedents, both on the aide of the cat and of the dog, and consequently of the owner of the cat, as well as the owner of the dog, and the partizans of the owners' of the dog and cat insomuch that the w hole cily was split into most determined cat and dog factions, and all strangers that entered the gates were instantly absorbed in the dog and cat vortex, and whirled actually round and round in this terrible fray, which every now and then broke out with fresh fury, notwithstanding all the vigilance of the liajah's guards." And yet even these valiant heroes were in some degree infected, giving sly cuts at dog or cat men, jut as they themselves inclined to support the dog and cat question. And so matters might have remained, either to the day of the final dejopulation of Sborapoor, or Doomsday itself, but for the wise olr'. Brahmin who had such timely warning to turn out the stranger. He had in reality been quietly chuckling a little, as many are wont to do who have lived to see their prophecies first despised and then fulfilled; but bis heart relenting, he hastened to the palace, and prostrating himself before the Rajah, with his hand3 joir.ed together, he thus spoke : ' May I be your sacrifice, O thou cater of moun tains and drinker of rivers! I have a petition to make in this matter of the cat and dog!" " It shall be heard," replied the Rajah. " Thou art a wise man ; what dost thou say ? dog cat dog and cat, or cat and dog? For my own part, I still reserve my decision, though somewhat inclining to the opinion that the cat caused all the mischief, and for this reason because if the dog had not seen the cat, he very probably would not have chased her outot sight out of mind,' being one ol our oldest as well as truest proverbs." "Alas! that I should differ with your HighnessBrave Falcon, terrible in war the most valiant of the State the Tiger of the Country," replied the Prime Minister. "How could the cat help being worried by the dog? and did not nature give her a right to go where she pleased?" So the whole Court took at once different sides, and matters might have come to a serious explosion, even within tho sacred walls of the palace itself, but f j! Ti 1 1 rt I f ior me iranmm, wno again utieu up 111s voice anu said : " May it please your Highness! Let me declare to you that it was neither the dog nor the cat that caused all this miseryr.but the 7y and the honey." " The fly and the honey? The fly and the honey?" exclaimed the astonished Rajah. " What honey, and what fly?" - , - - - And, as this was a perfectly new idea, the assembly listened with profound attention while the holyman unfolded the true history of the case- His having seen the stranger, and warned the people against him. How accurately he had observed the drop of honey dabbed against the wall. Then the approach of the fly, the tly gliding of the lizard, the wily creeping of the cat, and the stealthy, vindictive movements of the dog involving all "these creatures in' much Pain and difiiculty, and which afterwards overspread the city. ' "Hold, learned man," cried the Rajah, "thou hat well &aid; my eyes are opened!" and he desired search to bo made for the man who had too well earned the title of Mischief-Maker. But be was no where tolc cither founder heard cf; and the

poor flour-dealer, who stood among the prisoners ' with a bandaged head, declared that the villain had not even paid for the honey that bad caused the w hole tumult. "Wen!" exclaimed the Rajab, after a profound pause; " here now may most plainly be seen a proof if any such were required that my subjects only want a pretext, no matter what, to quarrel, and they are sure to go to loggerheads. " I now throw no blame upon either the cat or the dog; for each animal followed its own peculiar instinct. The blame and the punishment, too, must light upon the owners of the dog and cat for fighting-, and thus inducing others to espouse so ridiculous a quarrel," And forthwith he ordered all the principal rioters into confinement, saying also to the rest cf the people: " Go home now, fools that ye are, and try whether you cannot make up your minds to live at peace with one another. I cannot prevent your keeping cats 2nd dogs, because were 1 to do so, we should be devoured by vermin or exposed to robbery. But this I tell you, you shall not turn yourselves into cats and dogs lor the future with impunity Depart!" So they all sneaked off; and the active little man, whose head somebody bad broken, scratched it and said : " Only think how well that strange fellow knew us all!". Thriliinc Incident. On Saturday last, a middle-aged man, living on Navy Island, started in a small canoe, with his son, a lad of some 12 years old, for Chippewa. The distance is short, less than a mile, we should say, and 'although the current of the river is quite rapid, the trip is not attended with any hazard, if the the boat is managed with ordinary skill. But in this case the man was very drunk, and only embarrassed the boy, so the boat drifted below the mouth of the creek, before the lad could approach the shore. Seeing the impossibility of reaching the Canada shore, the boy turned her towards the head of Goat Island, paddling with surprising strength and dexterity, his father barely steering, without rendering luni any efficient aid. The bojit was swept down with frightful velocity, but the boy struggled most perseveringly, and when she was drawn into the rapids, he had propelled her so far across the Canada channel as to direct her course between the middle and inside Sister, the little islands lying outside of Goat Island, near the upper end. There is a fall of some fifteen or twenty feet just above the little islets, extending nearly across the Canada, or main channel of the river. Mortal aid could not have availed the poor boy and his father, if the boat had pitched over this fall. They must certainly have gone over lhe Great Fall, which man has never passed over alive. Aware of the imminent peril, as the boat was on the verge of the small precipice, the lad sprang into the water, drawing his father after him, and maintaining an upright position with great difficulty, upheld his helpless parent until relieved by the people on the opposite shore.

NEW INVENTION A CHANCE TO MAKE MOIfZT. finHE above figure represents a new and valuable Gkaik Deili., Jl or Seed Sowing Mukiite, recently invented and patented I f the Subscriber. The machine is designed to be nsed in the Eastern, Middle, and Western States, for sowie Wheat, Oats, Barley. Ac; and in the Southern States for sow ing Cotton ai.d Eire. l he machine, by once passing over the ground performs the triple task of harrowing the crotind, sowlne the seed, aud covering the same a good aud proper depth with cartb. Experiments made within the last few years in this eovDtrr, and many yenrs practice in Encland, have proved beyond lh possibility of a duubt that wheat planted in drills, say 8 or 9 inches apart, will produce from 5 to 7 bushels more to the acr than when sown broadcast, the nsual way. Moreover, from a peck to a half bushel cf eed may bo saved, to the acre, by using the machine. It i equally valuable for sowing cotton. With it one hand, with one horse, will plant as much cotton iu a day a 10 hand and 4 horses can accomplish the present Way, and do the work belter. The Subscriber designs reserving a portion of the 1'nitrd State to manufacture machines in, himself. The rij-'ht to the balance of thi States he would be pleased to sell to enterprising and responsible men. The machine can be used on any Uni where a common harrow can be nwd. It is warranted to work well. If it does not work well, and rive entire satisfaction, not a cent will bo chared or required to be paid for the rieht. Jt has been tested fairly and fully, eud with whit success the following certificate will demonstrate; This is to certify that Catling' newly invented 'Vrbsat Drill was used on my farm durins the past acasoa. Koine ten acrra were put in with said Machine, and I feel no hesitation in saying that it gave entire atirfaction in every particular, nd I can very cheerfully recommend it a being the bct manner of putting in wheat that I have ever seen tried. JAMES R. BECKETT. Hanover Tcwuship, Butler county, Ohio, Sov. 10, W43. HamiTos, Omit, Nov. 13, 1819. In October last I used Gatlin' Improved Wheat Drill," in putting in some thirty acres cf wheat. 1 take treat pleasure in stating that the Machine worked admirably, and that I am satisfied that the aeticultural community would save much lator, and increase the product of their lands, by its use. 1 have not yet had an opportunity of testing the increase cf the product over the common system of sowiug broadcast; but the appearance of my wheat presents a very flattering prospect. L. Ü. AMP15ELL. The Machine may be seen in front of Messrs. Feathersion dc Maybew' Store. Any communication to the Subscriber in relation to the machine, addressed to bini at Indianapolis, Ind. will meet with prompt attention. July27 HICIIARD J. CATLING. i PROCLAMATION.
