Col.

Col. Carew was elected mainly upon the issue of religion, we suppose, a mat ter with which as politicians, we do not feel either the right or the inclination to interfere, save to regret its introduction as an element in political contests.

" I It was in 1763 that the proprietaries of Pennsylvania and Maryland agreed with Charges .Mason ami Jeremiah Dixon to survey tlie boundary between their respective grants; sli id these "two mathematicians or surveyors" lamld in Philadelphia in November of the same yt nr, and entered at once jupon th.e work agreed npi u. Accordingly to thcir-own aeeouiit, their new 1 ne did not ary an inch eastward or westward of that which had beejt-established by previ us surveyors'; "ao thv after all,'rsays31r Latro e, "the sighting along poles and the rude ch lin measurements of 1761 and 1762 would hive answered every purpose, had the proprietirs only t hough. so.Jr ". He gives K minute account of the progress of this work from time to time, and thus continues: "The lines whose history has thus been iv- en were directed to be marked in a partityiar manner, both by the agreements of the pariies and the decree of Lord Hardwicke; and" the" surveyors- accordingly planted, at the end of every fifth mile, a stone graven with the arms, of the Penns on the one side and of the .Bultir more family on the other, marking the intyriue diate miles with smaller, stones having "a P on one side and an M onthe other. The stones with the arms were all. sent, from England. This was done on the'parallel of latitude us far as Side.ling Hill; but hjere all wheel transporta tion ceasing in 1776, the further marking of the line was the vista of eight yards wide with piles of stones on the crests of all the mountain ran ges, built some eight feet high, as far as -$ie summit of the Alleghany, beyond which 4-he line was marked by posts, around which stones and earth were thrown the better to preserve them." All the efforts of Mr Latrobe to discover some information in regard to the characters and personal appearance of these two remarkable individuals, proved fruitless. "Their letters," he says, "are the merest business letters; their journal is the most naked of records;" and he therefore amused himself by divining their char acters from their respective autographs. From these he very ingeniously deduces that "Mason was a cool, deliberate, pains-taking man, never in a hurry; a man of quiet courage, who crossed the Monongahela with fifteen men, because it was his duty to do so; though he would have much preferred thrice the number at his heels." From Dixon's signature he infeYs "that he was a younger man; a more active man'; a man of impatient spirit and a nervous temperament; just such a man as worked best with a 'sobersided colleague." - . r In a note he tells us that Lalahtlein his Bibliogrvphie A stranomique, says' that T)ixoiff as ovrn tn n- otic mine. ---lie aiea at Durham, 1. ti rtl .1 !-! ... 1 T T 7 limit Mnl-iMi fnM..'i..rl - Aiipiunu, iii a i i i,. uiiiy ;iiauii aui yncu miu -veil (but that has V l rr .Jeremiah liansrorbadje years, and according to the 'Encyclopedia Amefl - , ?sinn fliprl in Tt.itncivlratiia.,''iiVi tSS'V r,M?lal PL8!1 the stones that which marked? theuorthtTj " corner of' Maryland beingundermined-by?aTf "1 r r - '. - n uioyeii iu luijii pari 01. u cnuuiiey -jj ueJgii.Djr-i Mr Latrobe says, "the -Legfelwf JHU sylvania, .Maryland ' and "DelaWrc'oal matter in hand, and a joint. comns pointed,' which, obtaining the servicf tenant Colonel James D.-'GraJvamiTj V uished officer, of. the TopographicalL. hajnorr tea in an important;, particular prcdecfstninWtsvForat however- ' V.'" v.

Dr. Thomas we make the following extract: While seated one morning in the office of the American ambassador, Mr Mason eanje in, and after the usual salutations, said, "Did you ever get into a profuse perspiration and have a wet blanket thrown over you?" "No." "I didT yesterday. - A lady came to me with the following narrative: 'I am from the United States, and have in care a young lady who has been visiting her friends in'this country. She is a protestant, and tier father and mother when dying charged her never to forsake her faith or marry a Catholic. She has, moreover, a Protestant friend in the United States-to whom she is attached, .and to whom on her return to Ne'w York she expects to be married. While in the south of France she met with a French gentleman who was smitten with her; he procured - ah introduction to her, and has been courting Iter with unremitting attentions ever since. ' She has used every measure to shake him off; she has frowned upon him; she has told him she can never marry him, that it is utterly impossible; that his attentions are nu plcasant, wearisome, disgusting, even painful td her, and she has peremptorily ordered iiim never to see her. He replies, 'that is impos sible till I die. I cannot. live without eeing yon.' We came to this cityjn hopes to escape mm, uiu ue waicnea our movements and came j wjth us.. We sought to hide, from him here; but-be has found us oat. .."We hve Jtold " Kihi that we shall leave the country, aud that he had better return home. 'No. no!, says he, I will go with you when you go, I will stop when you stop, I will stay where you put up, I will live where you five, I will die where you die.' Now, can nothing be done to save us from this aiiuoyauce?" Mr Mason said he immediately sent for the prefect of police, and gave him the facts in presence of the old lady. "Your trou bles are at an end." said the police officer; "the young mau will see your ward no more. . Give me his name and address; we will command him, and if he obey not, we have a way of mak ing him obey." Mr M. returned with the old lady to her lodgings, and announced to the young one the joyful news of her deliverance from the annoyance to which she had bceu sub jected, when lo! with a gush of grief she cried, "O, you have been so cruel as to apply to the police! You will wound the young man's feelings. O, he is such a fine, such a noble young mau! I would suffer anything rather than wound his heart." "I started homeward," said Mr M., "immediately, saying within my self, we have been doing mischief; they will be married as sure as the world. No resistiug French enthusiasm." The Discussion atKf.xaxsvii.lk. We learn I by, a gentleman just from Kenansville,- that a discussion took place there yesterday, between Messrs. Reid and Wriuslow, before a large, and respectable audience of the freemen of Duplin t"ounty. Mr Reid made his usual speech. Mr Winslow s effort was exceedingly able, and so far as the almost nnivcrsal judgment of the audience" was concerned, it was a complete tri umph for Mr'Winslow as evinced by the ap plause with which .his remarks were greeted, and ie feelings upon the subject exhibited .by the ciowd". Mr Reid was cheered to his work by the applauseof one gentleman, supposed to lie the correspondent of the Herald, who, "soli tary and alone" - kept "the ball in motion." W'ilmiiigtaii Journal, 1 St A. . Son of Henry Clay n the Stamp. The Kentuckj- Statesman" of the 10th inst. says that Mr James B. Clay,.-sou of the great statesman and leader of the old whig party, has taken the stump against the Know-nothings. An abstract of his speech is published, from which we take the following: "Mr Clay said that this was his first effort at a public speech, and nothing less than the pro found interest which he felt in the great ques tions at issue could induce him to appear on this occasion. Never befo're had such extraor dinary, such alarming', such novel questions been presented fibr'the political consideration of the American people.

Modern science has made many discoveries in relation to-the ocean, its depths, and its beds or basins. According to Mr. Charles R. Weld, who recently made a tour through the United States and Canada, the vast sea-weed meadows of the Atlantic, which cover a space of ;icven times as large as France, teem with life, and deep sea soundings which repeal the sea-floor of the greatest depths, shew that the bottom of the ocean is frequently paved with calcareous and silicious shells. The Atlantic, basin is a vast trough, bounded on one side by America, and on the other side by Africa, and rising out of this trough are mountains higher than the lofti est Himalavahs, from peak to peak of which huge whales hold their course with the same precision with which eagles pass from crag to crag; and valleys deeper than any troddeli ba ttle foot of roan, within whose oozy folds the great waters lie in perpetual repose". Depths have been sounded in the Atlantic greater than the elevation of any mountain abovj its surface. Another modem writer, speaking of this great basin, says that could its waters be drawn off so as to expose this jrreat chasni, whicb separates continents and extends 'from then Arctic to the Antarctic, it would present a scene rugged and grand beyond description. The very ribs of the solid earth would be brought to light, and we should behold at one view, in the mighty cradle of the ocean, the sad remains of a thousand fearful wrecks, with their countless human skulls buried in heaps of pearl and mastimably ...

The deepest part of the North Atlantic is probably some where between the Bermudas aud the Grand Banks. The waters of the Gulf of Mexico'are held in a basin, whose greatest depth is about a mile. Letter from Hon John Jlfinor Bolts . of Virginia. Richmond, Jul if 9th, 1855. Messrs. Wm. S. Beers Jt Co., Gents. Considera tions of duty to the afflicted alone prompt me to send you this voluntary testimonial to the great value of 'Carter's Spanish Mixture," for that almost incurable disease. Scrofula. Without being disposed or deeming it necessary to go into the particulars of the case, 1 can Mty that the as tonishing results that have becji produced by the use of that medicine on a member of my own family, and un der my own observation and superintendence, after the skill of the best physicians had been exhausted and all the usual remedies had failed, fully justify me in recommending its use to all who may be suffering from that dreadful malady. I do not mean to say that it is adapted to all consti tutions, or that it will afford the same relief in all cases; for, of course, I can know nothing about that but from what I have seert of the effects, I would not hesitate to use it, in any and every case of Scrofula, with persons for whom I felt an interest, or over whom I could exercise influence jar cont rol.
