An Elephant's paternal Feeling and
Wnttjp sw^fou drawn by, peroral ol?v
^nhanti was passing our office yesterday the
following story was told, which we vouch
for as true:
~*?r, * JLast season a raenmjorie visited tho village
T>f Johnstown, llerkimor county.?
When tiro calvacado left town it passed over
a bridge which the road crossed leaving two I
elephants to bring;_Up the roar. These were
driven to the bridge, but wU lctftty i n own sa-1

The water of the creek, which, flows througha
gorge in the Blato formation, presenting at
that point banks of precipitious. character
and thirty feet liieffh, was low ntid by taking
Across acorn held, a ford could be reached.
But the proprietor of the*feorn field refused
to allow his property to be so used, except
on tho payment of an exorbitant sum,
and this the agent of tho rftenagerie refused
<to submit to. Accordingly the elephants
were again driven to the bridgo, and again
they refused to attempt the crossing. They
would try tho structure with their great feet
feel cautiously along the plank with their
firoboscal fingers but each time would recoil
rem. making tho dangerous experiment.
At last, howovcr, goaded by the sharp,
iron instrument of thoTccepcr, and accustom*ed
to obedionce, they rushed on, with a
scream, half of agony, half of anger. The
result showed tho: prudent presience of the
ipoor animals to have been correct; thoT?ridge<
brdkh, and went crashing to the bottom of,
the gorge, parrying with it both flic mon- j
strou% beasts. On,? oflhern struck upon its
tusks and shoulder, brenkiiYg tho former, and ;
very badly injuring the latter; .the other was
strangely enough, unhurt. Now was shown
the most singular and remarkable conduct
on tbepart of the brute which had escaped.
Its comrade lay there, an extempore bed being
provided for its comfort, while 110 temptation,
110 force, no stvantagem was sufficient
to euduce the other ^to leave, and proceed
avith tho main portion of the caravan, which
Jin ally weut on, leaviug the woundou beast
and its Companion under the chargo of their
"Neper. ,
Day after day the suffering creatures lay
there, rapidly falling, and unable to move.
At the eud of three weeks, the water in the
creek commenced rising, and there was danger
it would overflow and drown the disabled
elephant. Tho keeper desired, therefore
to get up and make it walk as far as u
barn near by, where it would be out of danger
and could be better cared for. liut it
would not stir. lie coaxed, wheddled and j
acoldcd, but all to no purpose. At last, enraged,
ho seized a pitchfork and was about
iplungipg it into tho poor thing's flesh, when
the companion wrenched the fork from his
^and, broke it in fragments and flung the
pieces from it; then with eyes glaring and
-every evidence of rage in its manner,'it
stood over its defenceless and wounded friend
as if daring tho keeper to approach, which
tho man was not eo green as to do again,
with cruel purpose. ,
Thus the injured animal lay there until it
died. When satisfied that it could no longer
b? of service, tho other quietly followed
^Jhe keeper aww from the spot, and shpwed
*? deettb to return; If this was not roason
,in? mmgieti wun an anecuon some men
.anight pattern after, wo should like to know
-what to call it.
The Seven Ancient Wonder3.
1. The brass Colosus of Rhodes one hundred
and twenty-one feet high, built by
Cyrus, A. D. 288, was twenty years in making.
It stood across, the harbor of Rhodes
sixty-six years, and it was then thrown by
an earthquake. It was bought by a Jew
.from the Saracens, who loaded nine hundred
cameta with the brass.
2. The Pyramids of . Egypt. The largest
of the Pyramids is four hundred and eighty-one
feet high, and six hundred and ninetythree
feet on the sides: its base covered eleven
acres. The stones are about thirty feet j
in length, and tlio layers are two hundred
and eight; three hundred and sixty thousand
mop were employed in its erection, which occupied
them thirty years. It has now stood
at least three thousand years.
3. The Aqueducts of Home, invented by
- Alipus Claudius, the censor.
4. Labyrinth of Pqnlmeticus, on the banks
of the Nile, containing within one continued
wall, one thousand and nine houses, and 12
royal palaces, all covered with marble, and
having only one entrance. The building
was said to contain three thousand chambers
and a hall built of Marble, adorned with
.statues of tho gods.
5.- The Pharos of Alexandria, built by order
of Ptolemy Philadelphia, in tho year
282 13. C* It was orccted as a light-house,
and contained magnificent galleries of marble^?
a large lanteru at the top, tho light of
which was seen nearly a hundred miles off;
mirrors of enormous sizes were fixed round
the galleries, reflecting every thing on the
?ea. A common tower is now erected in its
place.
6. The Wall of Dabylon, built by order of \
.Semirainis, or Nebuchadnezzar, and fini hed;
in one year, by two thousand men. 54{ey j
were seventy-live feet thick, and threo hunu-.
red feet high, with otto hundred brazen
gates.
7. The Temple of Diana, at Ephcsus, completed
in the reign ofServius, the sixth King
of Rome. It whs four hundred broad* ''and
supported by two hundred and twenty-six
marble pillars. It was two hundred years in
building.

"PLACE NONf BUT AMERICANS QN
GUARD."
Men are frequently met with who not only
refuse to listen to argument but deny every
fact adduced., The aborts quotation
wuicn js sain 10 iiavo ueen me language of
Wellington in oocofhis orders, has boon
recently denied by Professor Starks, the
celebrated Biographer?that he he never
mot with any such expression in anyofCicneral
Washington's orders. It is a very easy
thing to deny one's belief, I nt. ho w"ho docs
not believe incontcstiblc pioof, tho document
itself, must be "given to his idols."
In 1841, tho lato General II. A. S.Dearborn,
of Roxbury, transmitted to General
Peter S. Smith, of Philadelphia, a copy of
a manuscript in his possession relating to
this matter, and the same was published in
the JDaily Eayle, General Smith's paper.?
It reads as fallows, and is no doubt correct,
that such an order was promulgated by
Washington while at Cambridge.

had double barrelled gtf.ns, the thought "discretion

went to frtekson county and got soino twenty
of his friends to aceompntry him and returned
;-but upon their arrival thoy found
the .cabin filled and surrounded by about fifty

Missouri awbspread tbo news through the

W. P. Prick, Edit >k of TTIE ExTCftpafiM^E,.
Dear Sir:?llicro being no news St itn^portan^eAt
coratnumeato at present \f? have
concluded to^dopart from onr usuaflfcbutiu&
and enter upon tbe discussion of ^uqject
peculiarly interest^ at this timefjgfen a
Roman Cathdixc ?sstrictly guidfH Jfy th<
lava of WChnrrk nr.* yet t; g frite&?
publican, ami a good citizen 9 is ihaflluerv
upon which we offer a few remaflB. And
notwithstanding Jhe "holy horror'^with
which some of your readers nray doubtless
t view the agitation of such a question?yet
we ask them not to be alarmed or j^ouakh r
us a persecutor of their fellow-citizens gf the
' Romish Church. No harm can ever be dono
by calm and dispassionate discussion* of Any
subicet.
Wo will io this article attempt to prove
that the oath of alleginnco taken by*Tfor1
eigncr of "the Romish Catholic faith.upon
bis becoming a citizen of the United StnV*
is. not binding upon him according t& tlip
teachings of his own Church. ThisOway
be news to many but it is true. Let us refer
to "authorities." Pope Urban II?-who
lived A. D. 1080?says: "SiitwK l&lf l>^
' no authority constrained* to pay mo feoltywhich
they have sworn toh Christian Prtjjce
who oppose!^ God and liissaints."
Py the term Christian is here meant Wo-.
tcstant,lu contradistinction to Roman Calhhlic
And if-a Catholic is absolved'from the fealty
lie hath sworn to a Christian Prince, wojjdd
ho not also be free from that he hath swom to
a Christian Republic? Of course accordinjfto
the Catholic doctrine every Protestant i??*n
opposer "of God and his Saints,"-and (no
expression, as tluis used,-caif bo applied to
our people as well as to tliosp of any other
1 "Protestant" country.
In the Pope's Canon law, wo find "an oath^
I contrary to the utility of the Church is not to
1 1 ho obsorvoil."
Comment upon this is unnecessary* It
leaches perjury, and inculcates that wlucu if
carried -out would' destroy all law, morality,
and in a word, institutional democjptro
i government.
In a decree of Gregory IX*, we see it Btated
that "the fealty which suljects have
to a-Christian King, wlio opuses God and,
his Saints?(i. e. the Koman Catholics) they
are not bound by any authority to perform*"
This is a fit comparison to tho first extract.
In Baconiou's Annals wo find the followhig
language. "There can bo no doubt
that *hc political jpower is subject to tliic
ecclesiastical." "
i$o\\ to cap the climax, jrcndpvliat is
, taincd in the Bull of Pope Rixtus V. against
Henry, King of Navarre.
"The authority givin by St. Peter and hie j
successors, by the immense powers of the I
Eternal King excels tho powers of earthly j
Kings and Princes * * * * * We
do absolve and set free all persons as well as
jointly as'severally from any such oath and j
from all allegiance whatever in regard to'
domain, fealty and obcflience."
Thus we claim to have shown by reference

I iv me wonts 01 reauipg itoman uauiolics, two I
facts:
3 at. That oaths of allegiance arc not binding
upon Members of the Catholic Church ?
and that therefore foreign Roman Catholics
who have become, by naturalization, citizens
of these United State? arc not bound by their
oaths to observe the laws thereof.
2d. That thq authority of the Pope is high
above that of civil rulers.
Aro not these facts significant t We qom j
mend them to the perusal of all; especially,
to those Editors of the present day who jjplight
in extolling tho republican principles of
Roman (Catholicism, and whoso pleasure it is
to wage war, side by side with Jesuits, against
