The Southern Pacific Rail-
road Company.—-The prospects
of tMs great Southern enterprise
are steadily and grandly looming
up. The directors, we understand
closed yesterday^ contract with
Jdbo T. Grant & Co., of Georgia,
the most celebrated and successful
railroad contractors in the United
States, for the completion of seven-
ty-five miles of the road, and as
iron sufficient for. the laying of
twenty-seven miles of the track
is already ou the ground, the pub-
lie may confidently anticipate the
completion of the seventy-five
miles contracted for at a day suffi-
ciently early to secure beyond a
doubt the valuable charter granted
by the State of Texas. There
seems to be a rivalry growing up
between the supporters of what is
termed the Memphis and El Paso
road and the Southern Pacific—a
rivalry on the part of the former
which is as silly as it is futile.
The Memphis and El Paso road
may become a profitable auxiliary
to the great Southern Pacific, by
forming a junction with it, but it
caa never become a rival, for by
the charters of both companies, so
&r as the State of Texas is concern
eel, the Memphis and El Paso
road can never go farther west
through that State than a certain
point which common sense and the
true interests of the latter company
point out as the proper junction
of both roads. As the two lead-
ing features of Mr. Buchanan's ad-
ministration are said to be the
purchase of Cuba and placing the
completion of a railroad to the
Pacmc beyond a doubt, we see no
reason to despair of the accom-
plishment of both.—N. O. Delta
Nicaragua.—We learn from a
gentleman who came passenger by
the Philadelphia from San Juan
del Norte or Greytown, that when
he left there were no Walker men
at that place. By bungo arrivals
from above, the news at Greytown
was that the Gautemalians and
Hondurians had returned home,
leaving a force in charge of Rivas
and Granada ; but that since
Walker left the country, the old
intestine feuds had broken out
afresh, and that those two north-
earn States were preparing for war
upon each other. The Costa Ri-
cans have returned home, though
the Castillo and San Carlos forts
ares till fortified by them. The
natives at Greytown are in bad
spirits, and the expectation is that
Walker would have very little
trouble in overrunning the country
again if he went there with 1000
men, and the means requisite.
There are but two vessels of the
Enjrliph fleet now left at Greytown.
Col. Kinney is supposed to have
been lost, having gone up the
coast some weeks since in a leaky
coasting vessel, and had not been
heard of when our informant left.

The Washington correspond-
ent of the Richmond Enquirer, tells
the following good joke. The En-
quirer Iran is a good deal like Mr.
Buchanan, in one respect—he seldom
jokes—so when he does, it must be
good and worth repeating:
With regard to the much debated
governorship of Utah, we can tell a
little anecdote, which, if not very
unique, is still a good specimen of its
class. We were lounging carelessly
yesterday morning, in the ante room
of Democratic majesty, at the White
House. Among the swarming throng
we particularly noticed one individu-
al with long hair, unshaven cheeks,
seedy garments of an anterior fashion,
boots of no fashion at all, and that pe-
qpliar, gawky, rambling gait, which
always distinguishes the third rate
gentleman from the country. When
the doors of the reception rooms were
opened, Seedy was the first man to
grasp the hand of the President Af-
ter sundry compliments to the im-
proved appearance of that high dig-
nitary, and sundry qualified anathe-
mas oo the National Hotel, Seedy
proceeded to state the real object of
his visit. " Mr. Buchanan, the news-
papers inform me that you find some
difficulty in obtaining a Governor for
XJtah." "Then, sir," replied the
President, "the newspapers do not
telt the truth." ** But,", said Seedy,
"every gentleman to wnom the post'
tion has been Offered has refused it.'-
" We have had, thus far, but one re-
fusal," answered the President. "Ah!
well," sighed the applicant, with a
desperate attempt to be funny, "I
suppose that when no one else could
be persuaded tar accept an office, I
might very properly ask foe it."—
The President is not famous for his
love of joking; but on this occasion,
he showed his appreciation by de-
clan 3g : "Rely upon it, sir, that
when we can find no one else to ac-
cept the office, you shall hear from
The Jewish rage.--The He-
brew people, remarkable all over
the world for their thriving pecu-
liarly in business of a mercantile
nature, (for they never touch agri-
culture) are still more remarkable
from the fact that their entire num-
ber in the world at present is about
the same as in the palmiest days of
Judea. This fact is worthy of
note in the statistics of the Jewish
population, and is among the most
singular of all people. Under all
their calamities and dispersions,
they seem to have remained nearly
the same amount as in the days of
David and Solomon, never much
more in prosperity, never much
less after ages of suffering. Noth-
ing like this has occurred in the
history of any other race ; Europe
in general having doubled its pop
ulation within the last hundred
years, and England nearly trippled
hers within the last half century
the proportion of America being
still more rapid, and the world
crowding in a constantly increas-
ing ratio. Yet the Jews seem to
stand still in this last and general
movement. The population of
Judea in its palmy days, probably
did not exceed if it reached four
millions. The number who enter-
ed Palestine from the wilderness
were probably not much more than
three millions, and their census,
according to the German -statistic,
who are generally considered to
be exact, is now nearly the same
as that of the people under Moses
about three millions.
Vitality op Seeds.—The vital-
ity of seeds, with proper care and
under favocable circumstances, can
be depended on for the following
periods : Indian corn, wheat, rye,
Ac., for two years. Of course
every farmer will sow fresh seed
when it is possible to obtain it of
equal quality.
Millet, and the grass generally,
will grow the second year, if sav-
ed over with proper care, but not
with the certainty and vigor of
fresh seed.
Parsnips, rhubarb, and other
thin, scaly seeds for one year.
Carrot, cress, leek, onion, peas,
pepper, sage, salsify, tomato, for
three years.
Asparagus, egg-plant, lettuce,
mustard, parsley and spannach,
for three years. .
Brocoll, brussels, sprouts, cab-
bage, cauliflowers, raddish, sea
kale and turnips, four years.
Beat, celery, cucumber, melon,
pumpkin and squash, from eight
to ten years.
Volcano in Georgia.—Accor-
ding to a writer in the Chronicle
and Sentinel, a volcano has recent-
ly made its appearance in Pigeon
Mountains, some ten miles distant
from the town of Lafayette, in
Walker county, Georgia. A roar-
ing had been heard, at intervals, in
the mountains since October, 1856,
but on the 24th of April last the
earth was violently agitated.
"The citizens in the vicinity were
aroused and terribly frightened by
the commotion. When observing
the mountain they were more than
ever terrified, for a brilliant light
was plainly seen issuing from the
summit. The atmosphere soon
became strongly impregnated with
a disagreeable sulphuric odor. On
the following day a thick torrent
of smoka and ashes ascended from
where this light was previously
seen. The smoke was not visible
at night. This was perhaps owing
to the elements being covered at
the time with a very dark cloud.
No blaze has yet been seen to issue
from the crater. It has continued
about as above described ever since
emitting smoke and ashes without
intermission. The crater is thought
to be about one hundred yards in
diameter. No one has yet ventur-
ed near enough to ascertain any-
thing of its general depth. Sever-
al springs in the vieiuity have total-
ly disappeared. Many of the citi-
zens are very much alarmed, and
some are even moving out of the
valley, through anticipations and
fears of a violent eruption."
Greatest Leap on Record.—
A Wisconsin paper, the Helena
Shot-Tower (good name that for
a newsprper) records the greatest
leap on record:
A horse, twelve years old, jump-
ed from the bank over a perpen-
dicular precipice of one hundred
and eighty feet into the river below
aud came out safe and sound, after
swimming nearly half a mile to a
suitable landing place. The wa-
ter at the point where the leap
was made, was from twenty to
twenty-five feet deep.

DR. M'LANE'S VERMIFUGE
prepared by fleming bros. ,
New York, August 26,1852.
This is to certify that I am well acquain-
ted with a man fifty years of age, for manj
years a resident of this City, who has been
at times extremely ill, but could not toll
from what cause, unless it was worms. He
told his attending physician his suspicions*
but the physician at once ridiculed the idea,
and refused to attend him any longer. His
son then mentioned Dr. M'Lane's Vermifuge
and asked him if he would take it; his re-
ply was—I must take something to get re-
lief, or die.
They at once procured a bottle of Dr.
M'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge, and h9
took one half at one dose. The resUlt Was
he passed upwards of three quarts of worms
out up in evei7 form. He got well immedi-
ately, and is now enjoying moM excellent
health; and, like the good Samaritan of
old, is endeavoring to relieve hie unfortu-
nate neighbors. He makes it his business
to hnnt up and select all oases similar to hie
owitr that may be given oter by regular
physicians, and induces them to toy Or.
M'Lane's Vermifuge. So far he has indu-
ced more than twenty persons to talpe the
Vermifuge, and in every case with the meet
happy results. He is ^ell satisfied that
Dr. M'Lane's Vermifuge, preparedby Flem-
ing Bros, of Pittsburgh, is far superior ^
any other known remedy, and thatif more
generally known, would not fail to save
many valuable Uvee. For farther particu-
lars, inquire of Mrs. Hardie, 124£ Cannon
street, New York.

WORMS.
{t^Various theories have been
started relative to the origin of intes-
tinal worms, and yet the question is
still a vexed one among medi-
cal authorities. Of one fact, howev-
er, all are informed, and in which all
agree—the fatal nature of the influ-
ence they exert on children. At this
season of the year, the attacks of
worms are most frequent a* well aa
most dangerous. We take great
pleasure in directing the attention of
parents to the Vermifuge Dr.
M'Lanc, prepared by Fleming Bros.,
Pittsburgh. It is one of the most
extraordinary medicines ever intro-
duced to the public, and ,has never
failed of success wht-u tried.
