Tbe Hon. Lewis Cass, one of the eldest meo in his couutry'* service,—-having been for many years an offietr both in civil and military departments,—gires this valuable testimony: -l Rave never tasted ot ardent spirits in my li£s. and therefore know they can be dispensed with. Probably few man have undergone mora fatigue than I have. The most active portioo of my life wae passed io a oew country, on the verge of civUication, and much of it beyond, and 1 have bad my full share oi iu exposure*, exertions and priva»ions,inp«ae«and war. I have had my foil share of health. 1 might almost aay that I have uninterrupted health and am therefore,a living proof lhal ardent spirit? are oot necessary for physical endurance, under any circumstances of toil or trial. It was this convictioo which led me when Secretary of War, to authorizl'thsr commutation of the ration of ardent spirit# previously issued to the troop*, for in equivalent in coffee or sugar* which baa since bean made part of the supplies furnished to our army. -S|, .1 .uMf **B»g Thosider,** the celebrated Winnebago chief, lies biiried io Bel vide re, Boone couniy, ill. He was entombed precisely as he desired. Hw mausoleum was an oblong enclosure, made up by driving punch eon slabs of wood upright in the ground. He waa plaoed in an upright posture within, wrapped in a blanket, with hia rifle by hie side, and his knife, tobscco attached to his belt. These accompanimedta dis*ppeared one after another,* though they were sometimes replaced by the red pilgrims who came to look after the great battle be predicted. It ia aaid that when ihe Indians deposited tobacco within the enclosure, the neighboring squatters, on the lookout for such contribution, would afterwards run ramrods through the cracks, and screwing the points into the "weed," would draw it out and appropriate it to their own consumption^

Imported Cattle for Keatacky W« risifed the Antarctic, at*, thi fool %f Wall street, yesterday, to look at the imported eattkt mentioned in tVssday's "Tlrtoi une" Owing to the dtfcctlty of getting a berth at our crowded wharves, tbe &Uip waa not able io discharge the stock yesterday—that will be done io day. and they will be taken directly over to Bergen, io go forward to their now home in the West by the Erie road tbia evening. The lot cooi»u cf the fallowing animals, owned by the Ken tacky Slock Importing company, formed by about a dozen gentlemen of Fayette, Scott, and Bourbon Counties: Five bulls, two of them three year* old, three of them oaa year old and one of then coating 200 guineas, Six cows end one calf: one of tbe cows nearly ready to drop another. Eight heifers, one of the yearling heifers cost 9£^0, and is remarkable for her size and beiaty. Sho is oeerly all red. Fifty-four Cutswold sheep some of the bucks being units*ally large. Eighteen swine, one pair pair of which is large enoug to suit the breedders of moneieri in Kentucky. One Cleveland Day stallion that cost $1100, whioh a very fine horse of that excellent breed Another lot belonging to Col. Wm. Alexander, of Woodford County, oonsista of three bulls, one of them three years old and two one year four cows eight heifers.

The horned cattle are all of the Short horn Durham variety, and some of them are ol auperior quality, and the whola atook have mad* the voyage io the finest oondition we have ever seen arrive. The m°at of them look as lively as though they had been in stable on shore. The ship is broad on the beam, and the cattle arranged in stable* under the poop-deck, with their )iead« lo a broad alley in the centre, and have been evidently well fed and oared for by the per-' son in charge.^ f|s4#

Mr. James Bagg, of Scott county^ who went out as agent of the the company, with 920.000 to make the purQj)ase, came back tin the Antartio, accompanied by an Bnglish

The English speak of this lot of cattle a* one of the best that has been shipped, and no expense has been spared in the purchase of provision for the voysge. We hope they will r«ach home equally safe and that the importers will be rewarded in money and just commendations for their enterprise.

The gentlemen in charge of the cattle speak in high terms of Capt. Slouft'er, of ihe Antarctic, for his anxiety to bring his precious freight safely.
