From the Neao- York American.

 Indusny.-The following anecdote may give some encouragement to the industrious husbandman Not long ago, country gen. tleman had an estate of SB200 year, which he kept in his own hands, until he found him. selfso much in debt, that to satisfy his cred itors, he was obliged to sell the half, and to let the remainder to farmer for twenty -one wears. Towards the expiration of lease, the farmer, coming one day to pay his rent, asked the gentleman whether he would sell the farm. Why, will you buy it.! said the gentleman. If you will part with it, and we can agree,' replied the farmer This is exceedingly strange said the gentleman Pray tell me how it happens, that, while l could not live upon twice as much land, for which pay no rent, you are regularly pay ing me hundred year for your farm, and able, in a few years, to purchase it ? 'The reason is plain,' answered the farmer; you sat still, and said, go.' I got up, and said scome ;'-' you lay in bed and enjoyed your ease rose in the morning and minded my business

 The following amusing and pithy sketch of few remarks by Mr. Prentiss of Missis- sippi, is given by one of the letter writer's It was upon the bill prohibiting the reissue of the notes of the old Bank of the United States, in the House of Representatives.

 MT. P. compared the old currency before the experiment, to the bread. of the people !; this the Administration had taken away, and had given them a stone. But, not satisfied with this, they now enyied them their little ginger cakes of these poor five dollar bills, (that were as good as gold. and better,) and wanted to take this last remnant of the good times away. It was cruel. He could not but fancy that he heard in the language of this bill the last growl of the old Tennessee lion. How would it make his eyes flash and tighten to witness this last attack on Riddle and Biddle's Bank! It would awaken the 'gaudia certaminis,' the old long loved joys of the fight, and be almost equal to glance at the field of New Orleans.

 "This Administration had tried to wield his armor but they might as we'll take Da- vid's course, and put it off, for it was too hea- " for them. They wanted to play the part of Sampson, but they seized hold on the strong pillars of the State after their locks were shorn. It was vain to strive against the will and wants of the People. The Go vernment might as we'll attempt to enforce an assize of bread as to control the bills of State Banks. He appealed to the compass

 

 any thing of the milk of human kindness in them, they would consider the state of the people of Mississippi. When lately travel ling through the State, he had discovered that the silver ninepences that used to be hung round babies necks by string, had been all cut off and used up, so that the in- fants of Tennessee could not get one of them to cut their teeth upon. Loud laughter.1-- The Administration, by this bill were pass. ing tacit compliment to the dead bank the paper even of the dead Bank of the United States was better than the paper of this liv- ing Government The dead Percy was bet ter than the live Falstaff. It was said that when great julep drinkers died, the mint was seen springing on their graves; it seem- ed so of this Bank of the United States though it was dead, its money continued to supply the people with their best currency"

 Sandusky, June S0.-A Relic of Antiquity. Some days ago, tho laborers engaged in excavating portion of the Monroeville and Sundusky railroad. about five miles from this place, and near the 'deep cut discovered the tlsk of some unknown animal, of extra ordinary dimensions. Its whole length was about ten feet, seven of which is in perfect shape. The diameter at the base of tha, portion which remains entire, is nine inches but judging from the appearance of the frag. ments, and the taper of the existing portion the extreme base must have been over a foo in diameter. In shape, it very near resem. blcs the tusk of an elephant, and where bro ken, the fine cross-grained appearance O ivory is distinctly visible. saag vss.p

 It's color is a light brown, and near tn, base it is somewhat decayed, and crumble easily--but near the point, which is quit sharp, it still presents the hard polished ap pearance of ivory.-It was estimated b, some of those present, to weigh l50 pounds we think, however, that is rather exaggera ted. Near by, were dug out some pieces Q bone, in tho last stage of decomposition which are supposed to be portions of tn skull. From this circumstance, hopes ar entertained of finding the other .tusk, if an other still remains. It was found embedded in a marshy, alluvial soil, about five fee from the surface underneath, at the dis tance of from two to four feet, are strata O slate and limestone. This, we believe, is thu first thing of the kind ever discovered ii this part of the state, and is we'll worthy the attention of the curious,-C Clarion. 's'''' 't
