On the subjeot of the Petite Anse
salt bed, Prot.:HLlgard makes the fol

at a depth of about four hundred feet.
and that. a cretaceous ridge extends anwhom

quivsetb t little stretch of imaginati on c
to suspect that the rocksalt mass of
Petite Anse is but another cretaceous
summit ofthat ridge. In that case, it
is probable that the mass is of greater
thicknesi than has yet been suspected, On ter
and that gypsum, and perhaps the sul
phur bed, will be found beneath it. At, I hav
regards the latter deposit, its impor- arie..
tank can h.Irdly be over- estimated, too oz.
when we consider the primary impor- so o
tance of sulphuric acid to most modern 20
manufactures. Its price regulates that

its quality influences theirs. In view
of the disadvantages under which the
production of Sicilian sulphur, labors,

TsH JEFFERSON PBISONERS.--The I
following prisoners were discharged bu,
from the stockade on Friday: W. L" i
Crawford, Colonel Rt. P. Crump, J. M.
Vines, J. C. Murphy, Jr., R G. Batte,
M. W. Joplin, H. N. Geer, H. M.
Woodsmall, M. D. Hanigan, Silas H.
Nance, W. H. Magill, W. A. High
tower, D. A. Carpenter, and two cof
owed men, Dick Davis and Mac McCoy. .r.
The following persons were retained: w
Colonel Ludwig P. Alford, Oscar
Gray, C. L. Pitcher, Matthew Taylor.
and Dr. J. A. Richardson. Upon the
release of the others, the last named
prisoners were ironed, showing they
were convicted on some count; bu"
what, no dne knows.-Jefferson Times.
Thus the St. Louis Times: "A
Spanish proverb says the climate of
Madrid is three months of winter and
nine months of hell. Somebody un
kindly thinks Sickles has gone to the
right place, after all." Somebody may
think so, but the general impression is
that the right place for Sickler is where
they have hell all the year rounid.
A statement of the specie in the
banks of the Southern States shows
that the Texas banks hold over $4,000,
000 in the precious metals, against
$270,000 in banks of the other seven
States. Arkansas only reports $983.
Sarsaparilla Townsend died in
Boston on Sunday, the 3d instant.
He was seventy-six years of age, and
ot course had never indulged in his
medicines.
The Georgia newspapers announce
the serious illness of General Robert
Toombs, of that State. The many
friends of the distinguished Georgian
will hear of his illness with sincere re
gret.
There is a provision in our postal
laws whereby a letter directed to a
person ait a postoffice from the vicinity
of which he has moved, may be for
warded to him without the payment of
additional postage.
Prentice says that' nearly all the
Spiritualists are holding interviews
with Byron. They report him swear
ing and cursing worse than he did in
life. Mrs. Stowe's article has demor
alized him. He threatens to take his
revenge on her in a continuation of
D)on Juan.
