second day'a proceedings were scarcely lens
InUresiing and imposing than those of the
ll%|phite the crowd w?w in no way dimiu0.)$S
vfclwd. At rtine o'clock in the morning, the
? ^ <*qBffk^^rccompsiihw paraded ihreugli the
Utln^ipfti ?tree IS of the city, and after add res
^ , . ?ses at Court Square from Mayer Douglass,
' Of Memphis, Mayor Miles, of Charleston, the
representatives from the City Council of Sa
rannaTV jipd Atlanta, and several others,
they then prooeeded to tho wharf at the foot
of Court-street, where two hogsheads of
Atlantic ^vater were emptied into the Missiisippi
f>*" the Phcenitd Fiie Company of
Charleston. This was n grand and. imposing
spectacle. The blntF and wharf for sere
ml hundred yards, and several steam boat*
lying to, were literally covered with people;
and when the waters of the distant Atlantic
were commingled, for the first time, with
those of the mighty Father of Waters, n
alfbut of exultation arose fro-n that vast
multitude, which showed the j *y all felt at
the completion of the union, w'- jh binds together
the mr *. s ..ortont commercial
poipta.'of the Sou. ratriotic and appropriate
epoecltes were made on the occasion,
and" a-most- agreeable interchange of
friendly greetings and congratulations wore
mutually felt-by both our own people and
friends from the Atlantic seaboard, and all
along the route. The great undertaking is
now a fail accompli, and gratulations are
neither inappropriate or out of time.
A pleasing feature in the exercises w as
the part taken by the pupils of the City
Schools. They formed a procession, marched
to Court Square, and thence to the Navy
Ynrd, whore they partook of a bountiful picnic.
The excursion in the afternoon, was among
the most delightful incidents of tho day, and
contributed greatly to the pleasure of those
who turned out upon tire occasion. The
splendid and .magnificent steamer Simonds,
with some tw-q hundred invited guests, in
eluding the Mayors and Aldermen of;
Charleston^ Savannah and Augusta, left the i
wharf at 4 o'clock, P. M.f and run up the
river about thirty miles.
It was a most pleasant and de.ightful affair
throughout. The table set upon the oc-1
casion was oue of tho finest and best ar-;
ranged collations we have ever seen in this |
city ; and great credit is due tho efficient i
steward, Ilqrner, for the excellent manner in '
which it was gotten up. Captain Wray.!
the veteran and popular commander, did the
honors upon the occasion most gracefully j
and gallantly.
The Maltie Wayne, Winchester and'
Laughlin, with several hundred on each, in-;
eluding the firemen from Charleston, Suvan- j
nah, Augusta, Nashville and Memphis, also j
proceeded about twenty miles up tho liver,,
and wo understand everything went off plea
santly, and to the entiie delight and satisfac-.
lion of every one present.
A Fight-with a Negro Down East.

This the darkey didn't seem at all inclined
to do, and manifested his unconcern 1))':
gyrating his twvger* from his nasal protubcr- j
ance atul indulging in characteristic panto- j
mine. Officers held a short consultation
and then commenced to stave in an entrance
with an axe from the wood shed. Jake
gritted his teeth, and clenched his lists, and '
then camo down stairs and unbarred the j
door. Officers threw away their axe and j
entered, congratulating themselves on the j'
victory they had achieved. Jake wanted to '

they'd cotne to arrest him. " Yor have, |

Trkascur Trovb.?Mr. Benj. S. Dey, of
Curotuck county, N. C., while ploughing in
his field, a few days ago, dug up a pile of
old Spanish gold and silver coin to the
amount of about six thousand dollars. It is
supposed to have been buried during the
revolution?and the accident that led to the
discovery was most singular. It appears <
that an old'pine tree had fallen near the
icnce ol Air. Uey's farm, and one of the
brandies stuck in the spot where the money '
was found. As the tree was an obstruction
to those engaged in ploughing, it was raised
from its position, when it was discoveted
that the old branch had several pieces of
the coin sticking to it. They then went to
work and dug down to the depth of about !
four feet, when they were startled by the
discovery of this large amount of money.
Every eye that looked upon the shiners, we
are told, became as big as moons ; and one
of the negroes, who assisted in inising the 1
tree, on seeing the money sticking to the
limb, was so amazed at the sight, be halloed
out, " Whv, Massa Dey, what am dat?1
wonder if he grow dar ? Well, well, dis am |
de fus time I eber seed money grow on dc |
pine tree." A yoke of oxen was soon hitched
to the treasure, and it was carried to the
house of Mr. D?y, where it can now be seen.
This we assure our readers is no hoax ;
and it rather gives credence to the tradition
that there was money deposited on that part
of the coast by Blackboard, the pirate.
[Norfolk Herald.
Anot'T Whiskkv.?It is said that many |
fish havo been killed lately in the Sciota I
river, near Cliiiicothe, Ohio, by the Whiskey )
distilleries. This did not formerly occur,
and there is nothing in the grain that should
prove fatal t ? the ti-li. It is no doubt the
effect of strychnine, recently introduced into]
the manufacture of whiskey. By the use of
a certain quantity of this poison mixed with
tobacco juice, every bushel Of grain is made
to produce five gallons of whiskey, while |
with an honest distillation the product is I
one half that amount. The slop from this'
filthy compound is found to bo fatal to the
distillery hogs; and a chemist, who carefully
analyzed the whiskey, found that a barrel .
of it contained enough strychnine to kill 1
thirty men. So notorious ami alarming t
had this use of a deadly poison become that <
the Ohio Legislature has just passed a law ;
making it a State prison offence to use streh- .
nine in the manufacture of whiskey. Is it j
surprising that so many of our free diinkers c
swell np and rot in a very short time !

he, nevertheless, presides with

A scarcity of provisions, both for man and
