 Ploughing to Some Purrose.-We were pre- sented yesterday with two French silver coins, one issued in the reign of Louis xvi the year lG76, and the other in the reign of Louis XIV, in 1722, which were part of par eel found on the farm of Mir. Nash of Colds borough, (Me.) MT. Nash was ploughing in a field, assisted by two hired men, brothers. One was with him at the plough, when tho treasure was turned up by the share. They stopped to examine it, and on discovering it's value, Mir. Nash with noble generosity, or- dered the man who was with him to call his brother, saying they would all share alike in the good fortune. The brother, who was at work at a distance, was called, when all three commenced search and found French crowns, half crowns, and other fractional parts of crown, to the value of over $500 The coins were all of the reigns of Louis 14th and Lou- is 10th, and bore the dates ofthe years 1674- 5 and 6--172O-21 and 9, and were in per- feet preservation. The coins ot Louis XV's reign appearing never to have been in circu- lation, and the impression is as sharp as if just issued from the mint. A tradition has long existed in the town, that the place was once settled by colonisfs from France who were driven away by the Indians, and this money is supposed to have been buried by them for concealment. We arc told by the gentleman, who gave us two of the coins, that the good people of Goldsborough (not so in- apt name by the bye) have aii turned out. and not foot of ground in the town but has been or will be turned up in search of more of the treasure. f'3@ 8'4 -tt.
