Business generally was prosperous, and there was an abundance of all kinds of produce. S14.000 Stolen. On Wednesday even ing, about 7 o'clock a man called at the house of Flanders Newbegin in Biddeford, Me., and told Mrs N. that her husband had sent for his valise, which he wanted at his store in order to close some busii.ess. fche took it from under the bed and deliv ered it to the man at the front door, in the act of doing which the wind blew her liht out, so that she did not obtain a distinct view of his features. It then occurred to her that she might have done wrong and hastening to the store she ascertained from her husband that he hatl not sent for his valise. It contained twelve nr full rtpn world. The union of a substantial edura- tion with mechanical skill will effect this. Indeed, already could we name some mechanics who are excellent mathe maticians, and acquainted with French and German, able to study the books in those languages connected with their vocations.

Improvements in Carriages. Mr James C. Spencer, of Geneva, N. Y-, has invented an improvement in carriages, for - i i . i wnicn ne has taken measures to secure a patent, that must ultimately come to be very generally adopted, as light carriages can be constructed by adopting his method, at much less expense than by any other plan with which we are acquainted. No reaches are used; the body of the carriage is jointed at the middle, and has an eiipti cal spring just above the joint. Strong curved springs, secured to the body of the carriage and sunnortini: the same are secur- ed directly to the axles, in such a way that a turning- axis bolt unites the front part of the carriage body, and a like one the back part to the axles, thereby allowing the front and back wheels to turn in a ery small compass without any intervening reach under the seat of the carriage. Tin jointing of the carriage body and the elir- : i ,i ' . ncai spring unuer me same, gives the body of the carriage an easy accommodat ing motion when the wheels are nassino- . . over uneven roads.

What a blessed hit of liberty such a people as the French must have, when they are nrohibited hv the jovernment from using all the best means of communicating intelligence, either to friends or upon business matters. We will never believe that the people of France have arrived at a decent sense of lihe-rtv until the notorious nassnort svstein U abolished, and more personal "freedom secured to the humblest of Old Gaul. A magnificent Gold atch has been re ceived in Washington, as a nresent hv t 1 J some young men in California to Senator Douglas, author of the bili fur the admis sion of California into the Union No per son was allowed to subscribe a sum exceed ing five cents towards the object, and the subscription consisted of 8300.

Sun. miser, ol the name ol roscue, wno nau emassed enormous wealth by the most sordid parsimony and the most discredita ble extortion, "was requested by the Government to advance a sum of money The miser, to. whom a fair not inducement sufficiently tit run r t n ana lile him tn tiart with his treasured gold, declared his incapacity to meet this demand; he pleaded severe pover ty. Fearing, however, that some of his neighbors, among them he was very unpop ular, would renort his immense wealth to the Government, he applied his ingenuity to discover some effectual way ol hiding his gold, should they attempt to institute a den rrh ti iw.i-t'iiM tliv rni tli nr falsehood of his plea. With great care and secrecy he dug a deep cave in his cellar; to this receptacle for his treasure he decended by a ladder, and to the trap door he attached a spring lock, so that, on shutting, it Would fasten of itself. By and by the miser disappeared; enquiries were made; the house was searched; woods were explored, and the ponds were dragged; but no Foscue could they find; and ossins began to conclude that the miser had tied with his gold to some part, where, by I v i r incognito, he would be free from the de mands of the Government. Some time passed on; the house in which he had lived i i I. - i -1 was soiu, anu oi k men w ere uusiiy employed in its repair. In the progress ot their work they met with the door of the secret cave, with the key in the lock, outside. They threw back the door and descended with ;i light. The first object upon which the lamp was reflected was the ghastly body of Foscue, the miser, and scattered around him were heavy bags of gold and ponderous chests of untold treasure; a Candlestick lay beside him on the floor. This wor shipper of mammon had gone into his cave to pay his devoirs tw his golden god and became a sacrifice to his devotion! Wiat must have been the sensations of that miserable man what the horrors of his situation, when he heard the door close after him, and the spring lock effectually imprison him within his secret mine! How bitter must have been lhe last slrujr gles of that avaricious soul ! How terrible must have been the appeals, of conscience w iioin mat soiuiu sinner : now each nag must have disgorged its treasure, and Cost of our Army and Navy.

IN Anti-Fugitive Slave Mektixg Lynn, Mass. Boston, Sunday, March 2. A very large Anti-Fugitive Slave Law meeting of the citizens of Lynn. Mass., without respect of party, was "held in that city last evening. Mayor Hood presided, and made a speech in which he said. ue considered the law unjust, inhuman, ami not lit to be obeyed. " He solemnly pledg ed himself never to lift a finger in the work of returning a fellow man to slavery, neith er would he use.his official power to pro tect Slave catchers. A series of strong resolutions were pass ed, one ol which is as follows : Resolved. That the citizens of Lynn, being free themselves, will never assist in enslaving others. A. meeting in opposition to the law is to be holden this evening in llv another in bpringfield to-morrow ni-ht. The Tobacco Hound In North At tleboniugh, Mass., there is kept in a man ufacturing establishment, a large mastiff, who takes as much comfort in a quid of to bacco, as does the most inveterate lover of the weed. So habituated has he become to its use, that he must have it, and will sit all day in the centre of the shop, chew ing way with a great appetite and a good relish. He become thus much like a man by playjng w,th -old sogers," as the ends of segars are professionally termed. In such play he would occasionally find a soger" in his mouth, until at "length a taste was formed for the tobacco, which has since ? increased, and has now ! become as degraded as a man a slave to an acquired appetite.

Diamonds are foun in India, nn tVi island of Borneo, in South America, and some few in Africa. None have been found in the United States, and none as yet except within the tropics. They are usually found in loose alluvial soil, "from which they are washed out. In South America the diamond mines are, many of them, in the beds of certain rivers, which become dry in the summer season, when we mud and gravel containing the diamonds are taken out an! searched. Diamonds are not used exclusively for ornament. Discolored and poor diamonds are broken up and used as a valuable pow der in cutting and polishing the diamond the only material by which it can be cut and policed the agate, cameo, onyx, and other hard stones. All the engraving and lettering on hard stones is done witTi the diamond. Diamonds are also used ex pensively, as everyone knows, by glaziers.

In the year 1820, a duel was fought in Belleville, St., Clair countv, between Alphnnso Stewart and Win. Bennett. The seconds had made it up to be a sham duel; Stewart, one of the parties, was supposed to be in the secret; but Bennett, Ins adversary,' believed it to be a reality. It is supposed that Bennett somewhat suspected a trick, and after receiving his gun from hU second, rolled a ball into it At the word fire Stewart fell mortally wounded. Bennett was indicted, tried, and eonvicted of murder. A great , effort was made to procure pardon but Governor Bond would yield to no entreaties, and Bennett suffered the extreme penalty of the law, by hanging, in the presence of a great multitude or people. This was the fir-t and lnt rl..l .. k:k has ever been fought in the State, by anv of its citizens. The hanging of Bennett made duelling discreditable and unpopular: and laid the foundation of that aKl,Ln of the practice, which has been felt and expressed by the people of Illinois. Sensible Horses.
