The following article is taken from the Missouri Herald, published at Jackson M. T. and published merely to show how easily ? a hoax is pa*sed : 1 Postscript .?J us t as our paper was going to the press, we were in formed by a gentleman of thin place, that he had seenmnd conversed with two gentlemen, thirteen days from Alexandria, (La.) one of whou. states that a few days before he lrf? that place, a person had arrive*! *here in disguise, who was recogni zed Lv some officers offctbe late "Vench army, resident thw, to be ?A ttjjoleon Lomwarte. The gentle man who made this statement is known to be a man of good standing, v ? A bill was introduced into the le gislature of Ohio at its last session, to incorporate a Company to cut a Canal 4rora the River Ohio to Lake Brie. Owing to the magnitude of the undertaking and the members not understanding the subject, the bill failed ; hut it is supposed it will be re newed with success at fhe next ses sion. The distance of the projected Canal from Ohio to Erie, is 200 miles ? and it is prt*>osed to cut it in a direction which may meet the great Western Canal at Buffalo. Most Extraordinary of all. ? The Rutland (Vt) Herald, after giving the particulars of. the cattle show at Castelton, in that state, mentions the follftwing extraordinary circum stance* ? " The day was i i udered peculiar ly interesting by the presence of Hen ry Francisco, of the age of 187 years; who ploughed a furrow with the oxen that day exhibited. This veteran, who in the year 1702, bore arms at the time oMhe coronation of Queen Anne, in (the year 1819* held the plough, at the first exhibition of the Rutland Co.\ity Agricultural So ciety, and witnessed the assemblage of many thousands of wealthy, in dustrious, and respectable inhabit ants, in a section of the country which was uuia habited and scarcely known when he had attaineu to his threescore years and tern Dark Day. ? Yesterday, (says the Albany Gazette of Nov. 10,) we bad an uncommon dark day. At about day-light, and at different times in the forenoon, we bad thqn der and lightning ; some tain also in the morning, and about 8 o'cloc k a pretty severe fall of hail? during which, and for almut an hour after* ?wards, Was -necessary to Irave lighted canities in our houses in or*| der to attend to almogf any kind of business From three o'clock in the iaflernooo, *'e were obliged to use candles in on? printing office. ?
