There is a post at Sharon, N. J., placed to mark
a corner, shat has boen there 118 years. It is of
' red cedar, and stand? in black soil. A scratch will
show it to be Bound wood, as firm as when placed

The Austin Intelligencer says that no great time

marble quarries and petroleum springs, us the
principal sources of her wealth and prosperity.
"The only foreign clearance on Saturday was tho

cotton, i:00 bbia.' rosin, 25 cases canned goods,
2713 pounds manufactured tobacco, 1 case furni?
ture, 1 case leaf tobacco, and 1 box winter-green
oil." The above is from the Baltimore Sun of the
4th, and we are curious enough to asK a question
ss to the size of the steamship, and if they have
cotton presses and stevedores in our sister city?
A Confederate, who came out of the war minus
A leg and without money, settled on the Taronzy
River, twenty-five miles from Memphis, with a
wife and several children. He bought his land on
credit, bought pigs on credit, and bought stock on
credit. The hogs multiplied and fattened on the
mast in the woods, the cattle grew and thrived on
the wild cane, and now this one-legged man has
paid all his debts, has built a school-house, and
aided to build a church, has a comfortable homo,
three heendred acres of lana, twenty-seven head cf
cattle, and a number of hogs, and has still a little
mor :ii his pocket.
The Washing ton correspondence of the Lafayette
Courier says- : "Mrs. President JOHNSON appeared
at the reception for the first time. I felt a deep
anxiety to see tho woman who had taught uer hus?
band to read, and inspired him with that lofty
ambifciaa which led to place and power. She
?toed near the President to his right ; pale, thie,
?tamped with caro and sickness, a countenance of
thoughtful sadness. Looking for a moment at
each person introduced, her eye would drop im-'
mediately in meditative thoughtfulness, as if her
mind and heart were filled with thoughts and
emotions far different from the giddy throng pass?
ing by. All who know her speak well of her."
Judge LONGSTREET, the distinguished author of
the "Georgia Scenes, " is now h vin g in Oxford, but
is no longer connected with the University, over
-which he formerly presided. Time has dealt
gently with him, silveiing his hair and somewhat
enfeebling his frame, it is true, but nevertheless
leaving him', in his seventy-seventh year, in the
enjoyment of all natural faculties. He has prepared
a revised edition of the, "Georgia Scenes" fer the
press, containing much new and interesting
matter. This he at ono time thought of publish?
ing himself, but now wishes to dispose of the
copyright for its publication elsewhere.
On the night of January 23d, a handsome young
Prussian officer was silting in a stall at the Pa gu?
ano Theatre, Florence. A Prussian soldier stood
near 1dm in attendance. A native of Franki ort?
on- the-Alaine, who ste od near thom, suddenly
turned, on the officer and addressed him with some
grossly insulting remarks. Both Prussians re?
mained motionless, although tho eyes of the au?
dience were attracted to them. At the close of thc
performance, the soldier hastened to his master
and carried him ont in his arms. It was then ob?
served, that the officer had lost both legs, said to
have been shot off at tho battle of Sadowa. The
audience broke out imo deafening cheers of Vive
la Prtissie, and the Frankforter was removed by
the police.
The President of the Senate laid before that
body, on Saturday night, a communication from
the Secretary of the Treasury, from which it ap?
pears that the total amount received from the va?
rious sources of property enumerated under the
general head of captured and abandoned property
vras $i&,000,000, of which amount nearly $25,000.000
remain as net proceeds. Upon due proof of any
unlawful taking of private property by agents of
tho Treasury Depertment, the fact being shown by
satisfactory affidavits, the reports of agents, or by
other adequate written evidence, tho agents hold?
ing such property have been ordered to restore
the Eame to the owners, or tho proceeds, if not
actually turned into the Treasury, have boon paid
to them by order of tho department. Tho total
amount allowed in all claims is $2,200,000.
The Memphis Post says that notwithstanding
the ill BucceBS cf cotton planters last year, the
country around that city is alive with preparations
for the coming season. In some districts there may
be less land under cultivation this year than last,
but, on the whole, in West Tennessee, Arkansas,
North Mississippi, and North Alabama,there will be
considerably more planted. Thc same scarcity of
bands and the difficulty in obtaining them is com?
plained o'. Numbers are visiting or sending agents
to Georgia and North and South Carolina to pro?
cure them. Not more than half of tho planters
will have as many as they wish. The colored peo?
ple have been so much better treated in Tennessee
than any of tho surrounding States, that they will
hire no Tennea8eeans at lesa wages than to others.
Their enfranchisement will now add largely to the
laboring population of Tennessee at the expense
of the adjoiiiing States.
It appears from a recent response by tho State
Auditor of Louisiana, to a resolution of the Legis?
lature, asking for information in relation to the
matter, that Gov. JAMTS MADISON WELLS, of Louis?
iana, is a defaulter tu the State as Tax Collector of
.the .Parish of Rapides in tho year 1840. The Au?
ditor says "I beg to say that, according to the
iSookn of thia office, he appears to be indebted to
the State, as Tax Collector for the Parish of Rcp
ide3 for taxes of 1840. in the sum of twelve thou
sand six hundred and seventy-eight dollars. Tho
penalty under the law, for failing to settle within
the timo prescribed, hoing two por cent, per
month upon the sum withheld, will amount to
twenty-six thousand and seventy-two 2-100 dollars,
which, added tb the principal, makes his total in?
debtedness eighty-eight thousand seven hundred
and fifty <?9-lU0 dollars."
.The Virginia Legislature finally passed, before
Uv; close of its late session, at least ono of its rail?
road consolidation hills-that is, tho bill to com?
pleto thc "Covington and Ohio Railroad," hy con?
solidating the Central Virginia, the Norfolk and
Petersburg, and the Southside Railroads, under
tho name of tho Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad
Company. Should the scheme succeed, it will be
the means of absorbing some $7,000,000 of State
debt and of diminishing the taxation of the State
to thc amount of $320,000 per annum. There is a
contract with PELL & Co., however, for tho com?
pletion of the Covington and Obio road, and, if
they carry it out, the consolidation falls, but it is
not* believed they will succeed in their negotia?
tions.

THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 7,18(37.
THE BANKRUPT LAW.
At the close of a long congressional campaign,
the Bankrupt Law passed the House' on Friday
last, the first inst., by the closest vote we recol?
lect of during the present session, 73 yeas to 71
nays. We gave the lending features of the BUI in
our issue yesterday. It is the only measure, we
believe, in tho consideration of which party lineB
seemed to be entirely disregarded, owing probably
to private and personal considerations, greater
than party obligations.
" Tho greatest interest and excitement was
manifested on taking tho final vote," we learn
from the reports of the debate, " members crowd?
ing into the area, watching the reBult, and endea?
voring to change votes one side or. the other. At
ono moment there was a majority of one in favor
of the report (of the Conference Committee, in
the main concurring ia tho Senate amendments,)
then a majority of one against it. Then a change
of a vote from yea to nay, and another change from
nay to yea. Finally, to the great joy and relief of
Mr. JEXCKES, the author of the Bill, tho result was
announced hy the Speaker as yeas 73 nays 71."
This announcement was greeted by great ap plause
on the part of the 73, who had voted aye.
The Bill, with the House amendment, then went
to the Senate, and was by them accepted and
passed, by a vete of twenty-four to twenty, signed
by the President, and sent in before the adjourn?
ment of Congress. It is, therefore, now part of
the law of the country. We havj not yet seen the
text of the Bill as it passed, and are therefore un?
prepared to examine its several provisions, but
have long felt satisfied that such, a law was de?
manded, especially at this time, in the interests of
humanity. Wo have never seen any arguments
against it that we considered worth serious refuta?
tion. We aro not, however, prepared to go the
whole animal on this matter with tho New York
Tribune, which, in its remarks on the passage of
ibis law, says : "Under tho more enlightened reign
of modern ideas, it is to be hoped we shall soon
como to the unequivocal adoption of tho only
sound rule on this subject-that is, to regard debt
wholly as an honorary obligation. We know noth
? lng that would have a more.healthful influence
upon our deleterious credit system than to place
all debts on the basis of personal honor."
This may, perhaps, answer for tho high latitude
in which the immaculate philosophers of the Tri?
bune move. Tho personal honor ol a New York
merchant, a Wall street broker, a Westchester
farmer, or an Albany legislator may be, doubtless
is, above all reproach. No breath of foul asper?
sion could over reach it. But this, unfortunately,
is not the case everywhere. The law has still a
8trc ng hold upon men in other parts of this mun?
dane sphere.
1 FINANCIAL.
The Finances of the country occupy a consider?
able degree of attention at present in the journals
of the North, and certainly not without cau3e.
We also could say a good deal on this subject, if
thero seemed to be a shadow of a probability that
anything we could utter could in tho least degree
influence the headlong course to ruin and bank?
ruptcy, pursued by tho last Congress, and which,
no doubt, will bo continued by tho present. Tho
old adago about the spigot and the bunghole never
received such gigantic illustration, as is the case
now in the financial matters of the United States
Government. Every now and then the Secretary
of the Treasury, or, it may be, a member of one
of the Committees of Finance, or some jtyurative
ly inclined editor, puts forth a scheme, by which
die National Debt (of three thousand minions, we
believe,) is to be paid within a short given period
of timo, or else submits a plan, by which the debt
is to be "consolidated," and the amount ot annual
interest considerably lessened ; when, perhaps, the
same paper that reports these propositions brings
tho news also of the passage of an "Equalization
of Bounty" Act, which adds some four hundred
millions to tho debt ; and these $400,000,000 are
voted for with as little misgivings, as though the
mill that grinds out tho Greenbacks-Legal Ten?
ders, or by what other name the delusive commod?
ity may be called-was endowed with some myste?
rious power, by virtue of which it could indeed
manufacturo money, an actual increase io the na?
tional wealth, and not merely multiply Uncle Sam's
L ?. U's.
What is most surprising is that the United
States bond? should, under this reckless Bystem
of legislation, still maintain their figures in Frank?
fort and in London. In tho case of a private indi?
vidual, or a close corporation even, such a course
would be construed to forebode certain ana early
bankruptcy, and the moment such fact would be
brought homo to the cautious heads of the money
kings an instant and tremendous tumble of secu?
rities would be the inevitable consequence.
Unfortunately for the country, the legislation in
Congress during thc past six years has been gov?
erned exclusively by considerations of a sectional
and party character. The war was conducted en?
tirely regardless of expense; just as when a man
goes to law, determined at all hazards to gain the
suit, in the heat of passion and resentment never
stopping to consider whether the end in view is
worth the means expended in the effort to attain
it. Tho war is closed; but passion and misrule
still reign supreme. The gigantic scale of expen?
diture, introduced into every dopartment of the
Government by the war, is still in course of pro?
gress. "The heroes of tho war must he reward?
ed." Nowhere in modern times has the world
aeon such "rowards." Such a system may have
been consonant with the times of SYLLA or of WIL.
LIAM of Normandy, just as the recklessness with
which the national monotary obligations aro ac
cmnmulated resemblos tho financial policy of the
French Revolutionary Govornmebt of the last cen?
tury, in thc wildest days of their misrule; but
neither tho "rewards" ncr the extravagance seem
to us consistent with thc degree of enlightenment,
professed hy our legislators; io say nothing of tho
many examples offered by history, showing the in?
evitable consequences of such a course.
The question of reconstruction, which more
properly should be entitled the destruction of the
South, has jaundiced the eyes of Congress and of
their constituents. Every question of finance, of
tax, rovenue, protection, appropriations of all
kinds, etc.. waa invariably complicated with tho
reconstruction incubus; and, as passion will always
carry the day over judgment, when tho two come
into collision, the material interests of the country
have almost in every instanco been disregarded,
and the views of a few of the leaders of the domi?
nant faction been rammed down tho throats of the
entire party.
Now. however, that the National E.mkrupt Law
hus passed, wo suppose Uncle Sam, if hard pressed,
will take the benefit of the Act, make an assign?
ment, or go into liquidation.
But, eui bono ? ^We have allowed ourselves in?
sensibly to he drawn into making these reflections.
Wo beg pardon of our readers. Wo know very
well that ws are talking to tho wind.

SUBJECT.
JOHN BUNYAN AND LEIGH HUNT ; the Tinker-poet
and tho Poet-tinker: or how "Pilgrim'' is esteemed
in Vanity Fan*.
"What great poet over wrote his poem in prose? or
where is there a good prose poem to bc found ? The
Pilgrim's Progress indeed has been called ono, aud
undoubtedly Bunyan had a genius that tended to make
him a poet, and one of no mean order, and yet it wau of as
ungenerous and low a sort as won compatible with BO
lotty an affinity, and this was tho reason why it stood
where it did. He had a craving after beauty, but not
cnongh ot it in himself to echo to its music."
[Leigh Hunt's "Imagination and Fancy."
" Thc author of Telemachus baa a sense ol' the beauti?
ful, but was prevented by the 'cold and feeble spirit of
devotion' from giving it expression. Ho (Fenelon) waB

ABSTRACT OF LECTURE.
(1.) Defence of the horo of the Pilgrim's Progress.
(..) The Pilgrim's Progress as a prose poem.
(3.) Bunyan's conception of the neroic character com?
pared with that ol' Homor.
(4.) Tho Pilgrim's Progress aa an allegory. Bunyan
compared with bpcuser ; contrasted wiui Milton ; his
affinities with ?Sha?capeare.
(5.) Bunyan os a writer of the English language. His
book the only instance of written speech. His doggrel
verses not inconsistent with his poetic endowments. His
want of learning no miswtune to the literary world.
(6.) Bungan os mah'and Christian, the hero of his own
allegory ; of whom, like Cowper aud Coleridge, " we ask
to be forgiven for praise." March 7
