— A woman named Bridget Cross, and her infant child, were run over by an omnibus, in Louisville, Tuesday last, the child instantly killed, and the woman fa-

—The Bank of Gosport, Indiana, having been duly protested, the Auditor advertises that he will dispose of the securities deposited with him, and be prepared o.o redeem all its issues in coin, on and after the 20th day of February next. —-The Attica Lodger says that Mr. George Brier, an old and esteemed citizen of Warren county, was found on Tuesday evening, between his home and Williamsport, with his neck broken, and entirely dead. Ho left Williamsport in his wagon for home, and it is supposed that the wheel of the wagon struck a stump, which caused him, with his chair, to be pitched out, and falling, it is thought, ou his head, with the above result. —A carpenter named Rogers, his wife and four children, were burned to death during the destruction of their dwelling by fire, near Allegheny City, Fa.,on Monday night last. A little boy escaped from the building, from whose statement the cau:-e of the appalling calamity is traced to Rogers’ coming home intoxicated. —On Monday night last the Court House at Albion, in Noble county, took tire in the Clerk’s office and was entirely consumed. Loss of building estimated at 85,000 ; value of judgments destroyed, about 880,000, which it will take much time and trouble to restore. The books in all the other offices were preserved. —The people of Gratiot county, Michigan, are represented as being in a very destitute condition, and an appeal has been made to the legislature for aid.— There are about 1,000 families in the county, and of these not more than one <|uarter, it is believed, have.the means of subsistence until the next harvest. An almost total failure of the crops is assigned as the cause of the existing want. — Young men! here is an exnmplefor you. On the 28th of December, Mr. Thomas Hall, of Lynn, N. II., who is 70 years of age, walkedfrnin his residence to a wood lot, one mile, chopped tltrer rordu of wood, sled length, and then walked home, and all between the hours of and B o’clock. This would be a fair day’s work for a young man. For an old man, on the verge of fourscore years, it is truly

remarkable.

— I luring the past year Lynn has manufactured more than lO,000,(100 pairs of shoes. The shoe business of Massachusetts is valued at 840,000,000 a year, and one-half the shoes made in this State are manufactured in Lynn—so the thriving city of Lynn annually manufactures $20,-

Some years since I was traveling on a line boat on the Wabash and Frio Canal, and our passengers were in the habit of amusing themselves by visiting the various orchards on the route. One young man on the boat not satisfied with what he contd bring on board in an ordinary way, cut the poeketfrom his overcoat, so that between the outside and the lining he could stow in hard on to half a bushel. As he brought so many on hoard, the rest got out of the way of providing for themslves, depending for a supply upon his capacious poekets. One day, having put on his foraging coat, as he termed it, he made his way to an apple orchard, and after filling his coat with choice fruit, was about leaving the orchard, with his coat sotting out around him very much like a modern belle'scrinoline, when he was met by the owner of the archnrd. “Good morning sir,” said the farmer.
