Sir Robert Peel announced, in the

four hundred and thirty articles. It is proposed also to abolish the auction duty altogether, and all duties on exports. The reductions to be effected are: Sugar jC1.30O.O0O Coal llbt0e0 Imported duties on raw materials, including

When the charter of the Siatc Bank of Indiana was created, it prohibited the issue of notes of a less denomination than five dollars. In a short time afterwards, the small bills issued by the adjoining States became our piiucipal circulation. The people were unacquainted with their solvency and thousands of dollars proved worthless on their hands. To remedy this evil, by givmg the people money they knew to be good, it was determined to permit our own Hanks to furnish this kind of circulation, so convenient in the every by transactions of business. Accordingly, the charter was so amended as to allow t.h em to issue bills, of a denomination not Ifeis than one dollar, for the term of five years. This time expires next winter and, the time be extended, we will soon be without the small bills of our Bank. Previous to the meeting of the last session of the Legislature, the State Board of Bank Directors adopted a resolution, 'with but one dissenting voice,' directing the President of the State Bank to ask a continuance of this privilege.

Great natural Cariosity. A late number of the Dayton (Ohio) Transcript mentions a discovery made in that region of a most singular and extraordinary character, being a stream of water brought to light under peculiar circumstances, and to be seen in Delaware county, in Ohio, about 17 miles north of Columbus, the seat of Government. The Transcript remarks that although it is one of the most novel and curious things in natural history, yet it has never bafore been made public or been known to the scientific world. It has heretofore entirely escaped the notice of scientific men, from the fact of its being- in an obscure place, and no account of it ever having been given in the public prints. The Iact9 of the case are as follows: Sometime about the year 1818, two men by the names of Davis and Richards, salt boilers by profession, commenced boring fur salt water in the bed of the Scioto river, near the place mentioned. After having bored about fifty feet through 8 solid rock, they carne upon a stream of white sulphur water of the strongest kind. The auger with which they were boring suddenly sunk something like two feet, which is probably the depth of the stream but such was fhe pressure of the water that the auger was forced up again, and large weights had to be attached to it, in order to keep it to its place, and enable them to bore further. They continued to bore on, however, until they got about 400 feet below the sulphur stream, when thev struck upon salt water. The size of the auger was about 2 inches in diameter. When they took it out, tho jet of sulphur water rose up to the height of 20 feet above the surface of the river. In order to obtain access to the salt water beneath, they procured a strong copper pipe and attempted to force it down to the place where it was to be found. But whenever it reached the sulphur stream, such was its force and pressure, that the pipe was completely flattened, 60 as entirely to prevent the passage of water through it. All subsequent attempts to insert a pipe proved ah. ortive, after prosecuting the work at intervals for several years the project was entirely abandoned. After enlarging the orifice made by the auger at the top, a wooden stock '40 feet in height was inserted yet even at the top of this, such was the force of the stream, that it required the strength of two or three men to put a plug in it. From this stock, a pipe conveys the water to a spring house on 0110 of the bluff banks of the river. The stream has been running for 20 years vet its strength and foice are unabated. Those who have recently examined it say that it is capable of throwing up a stream ten inches in diameter from 80 to 00 feet high and that water can be obtained to turn a large mill. The whole matter lay in ob?curitv tin

tizen, Mr. IV. Hart, accidently heard thj: -um'laiice and booghi the la.eJ uJ)Ol i : is situated. It was from him tha,V-. . -1e foregoing facts. Tbqrl ; ... irood white sol,.'
