The Eilk County Witness. «Jn the spring of 1845, afterg@he close of a long tiresome session 'of the Pennsylvania legislature, the writer was invited by Col. A--, the clerk of the House of Representa: tives, to accompany him to his home in the backwoods of Elk-a new county that had been partitioned off from Jefferson, Clearfield 'and M'Kean, at the session. The object of this visit was two-fold; first, to enjoy the fine Araugifishiog of that prolific reglon, (1 'have taken here three hundred that would average -* ight inches, in-siz-houyre, with a worit,) ahd secondly to ggaist tho glondél 'in getting. the seat of Justice-where ha-wanted it.\ The thing was so well worked that I must tell it before coming to the lawsult stofy. ~ 'The Colonel owned a mill and store at Caledohia, ot one edge of the county, and a very fine mill at Ridgeway, the principal town-in the county. He wanted the court- housost Ridgeway, but was not Inclined to pay anything for It, as Mr. John Ridgewa?, wfulliionare of Philadelphia, owned nearly all (He Tand | about it, and the county seat would gretitly increase its value. - A--'s plan was ta putin'strong for Caledonia,and he did. - He offered to build the court-house and jail, and gave bonds theréfor-if Caledonia should be chosen. Ridgeway became frightened, and offered n similar proposition, for his own town, which was, of Gourse accepted by the - dommiesioners, who were all personal friends bf 'the Colonel. the Colonel and myself went over to Caledonia, to see how things Gourished pver thers and eat some of Aunt Sally Warser's pumpkin pies and venison steaks, tirid oo arriving at the door found a justice's gdurtio full blast.

One day last summer I took my place in a tere, 'Two persons in particular attracted my notice; one was a middle aged gentle- many stout; rather: sultry, taciturn, who paid mo attention to any living being on board, panting or lolling out his tongue, roaming his way, or frightening children, by suddbnly covering their faces with one liek of His great tonghe, and convincing ladies that he was going mad, by the vigor with which deck.\ His mistér eyed these pranks wilh a.) sly smile; and seerfled quietly to enjoy the' terrors-Uetasfoned Uy the antics of his burly friend. 'The other person whoth I specially noticed was a very pretty and well dressed lady. Young lady et would no doubt have been called. but that she had with her a little girl, about seven years old, who called her She was evidently possessed of nerves; Indeed, she seemel to be ~fitmae‘qaed by them, and their name was legion. End; less were the petty annoyances in which they involved her. But her keenest suffer- ings in the small way were caused by the unwleldly gambols of Lion, the Newfound- land dog; and her intessant and purile excla- mations of terror, indignation, and spité, parantly unnoticing master. The little girl, on thecontrary~ had, to the increased alarm of the weak mother, made friends with the monster, and for a long time amused herself by throwing bite of biscait_for him to catch, which feat, notwithstanding the incorfect- mess of her aim, he managed to accomplish, by making a boisterous pldnge to one side or the other, and when atlast she timidly offered hin a piece out of her hand, and he acknowledged the complifient by litking ber face and rubbing bis side dgainst.her, tntil he almost pushed ber down, the little creature fairly screamed with delight. 'The mother screamed too, but in one of the small, hysterical screams in which she was fond of indulging and which was followed by an outburst of anger at Lion's audacity : \ Good gracious!\ she exclaimed, \if that borrid creature should be mad, he'll have killed my child ! - How dirty heis, too! - Loo at your pelisse, Adeline; see what a state itis in! How dare you play with that ani- mal?\ This tranaeition from bydrophobia to a soiled dress, was too much for Lion's master, and h&'burst into a lood laugh. \I wish, sir,\ said the lady, snappishly \ that you would call dway that nasly dog; instead of setting bim on to sunoy every- body who is not accustomed to have such dirty Animals about them.\ The geotleman said nothing, but bowed and walked forward; and I soon after say him enjoying a cigar, while Lion played the agreeable, in his own rough fashion to people who knew how to read the expres- sion of his bopest and intelligent pbysiogno- my. Little Adeline,\ deprived of the attraction which had fixed her attention to the inside ofthe boat, began to see antusement in waich- ing the foaming water, as it rushed from the paddle wheels,and danced In long lines behind thei. - Sho knelt on a abawl which a fellow» passeager had lent, as a cushion for the little knees, and leaned quietly over the side, watching the roaring water: so her mother was for a time relieved from the ihoueand mosqulto- winged verations which had hither- to beset her. We were within a few miles of Gravesend. £ {licked his master's hand and stretched him: And Lion-did look out, with wild flashing eyes und limbs that trembled with anxiety.- What a moment that was! Every one else was passive, every other attempt was laid aside, and all stood in mute expé¢tation.- 'Those who were near enough watoléd. the third rising of the poor child, and thbsa.wlid could not see the water, kept their gy6s fixed upon Lica. hms © In another instant a ory was raised, as a golden tréssed head-was seen to emerge from the:water.

His master marked his progress anxiously. His face was pale as death, and it was only by rigidly compressing them that he could control the nervous quivering of his lips. \ He has her,\ he exclaimed, as Lion rote to the surface, after a long dive, holding the little Adeline by the hair of the head in such a manuer that her face was out of water.-- \ He has her, and she is sited !\ Down went the steps, and on thet étood a couple of active sailors, encouraging the brave dog by shouts and gesiores, and ready to receive his precious burden when he should approach them. - ° Slowly he caine on, wishfully eyeing the steps, and new and then looking up ag his master, who was leaning over the side er- cudraging hit with his well-known voice. \ Here you afe!\ cried the sailors, seizing the litle girl. She was handed from one to another and at last deposited in the arms af an active looking gentleman, whom every one sewed instinctively to recognize ag a susgeon, and by him tarried-below. ._ ' \Now coma up, that's a brave fellow,\ said the sailor, retreating to- make way for Lion to climb the steps. But the poor crea- ture whitiel pitcously and, After one or two {ruitless attempts to raisethimself out of the water, he remained quite passive. 'Help bim-help him! he 18 ethausted ? cried his master, fighting his way thtough the crowd to go to the rescue of his favorite. by this time, however, he had reached the top of the ladder, the sailors had perceived the condition of the dog, and with some difficulty dragged him from the water. With their as- sistance, he crawled feebly up. and languidly self on the deck. 11 would be difficult to tell which received the most attention-the little girl under the hand of the surgeon and all the women who had squeezed themselves into the cabin under the firm conviction that they were exceeding- ly useful, or the noble dog from the rough but kind attentions of the steamer's men, un- der the superiatendence of his master. Both the invalids were convalescent, and Lion was sitting up, receiving with quiet dig- nity the onresees of his friends, when Ade: line's mother came running up stairs, and throwing herself on her knees before him, and clasping bim afféctionately in her arsts, laid her cheeks upon his rough head and wept. 'He's a dirty animal, madam,' said the gen- tleman, who had not forgot her fortner elight- ing remarke ;' He'll make your pelisse in such a etate: - Besides re may be mad? She cast up her eyes with an etpréssion of meek reproach. | 'They were fine eyes, and 1 think be felt, for his features softened fin- mediately. ' Oh, pray, pray, give him to urd !' sho ear- nestly entreated. 'Give Lion to you /' he etelaimed, in de- rision : ' Why, what would you do with him? I will tell you.

In 1845, while waiting at the foot of the White Face Pang: of the Adirondac, for the clouds to re- ove froth the summit, a fire broke out: in the woods of the eastern slope of the rtoun- tain, and soon this gigaotle hountaln: was . wrapt in-a sheet of Hame. Tha thes and every combustible gubstdncé on the earth was conslimed, and th6 thin covering of loose earth. (about a foot in thitkness) on the racks was calcined by the heat. About three years afterwsrdo1 again visited this mountain, and found the burned. district a vast field of blue- berry bubHes: Ddfing the frillt session moré than 2000 bf\ bloebErrles were gaihbred IH thisfield; for (he Montreal market. < About forty years afro, the extensive bat- tens lying between Cudriberland and Green river, in Kentucky, were covered with high grass, strawberries and wild flowers.

No frees cobld grow here, but the grass rtéprotited and appéared to gather new life froth the fire. Since the barren hate been sbttled, the Autuinn fires hate been prevented, and it is now a thickly wooded district. Chestnut, oak and hickory have spring up, and when L saw the first growth, it looked like one vast nursery, boun- ded on all sides by the horizon. . ___ 2 In'my examination of the extensive plain iying betwen lake Ontario und the river Ot- bwa; L found that districts of pice timber, which had been swept by the flames, were supplied with a now growth of hardwood in- stead of the pine. Near the: bordéfs .of the Tike Champlain, on the western sfdg, farm- era cultivate the blogberry bushes ; they pile brush on the ground laid oft for thé berry in abundance, These facts bédr witness (d the harthonies of nature, and give evideocé of thé fertility of our beautifol barth.\ The most nuelent accoiint of out earth, makes mention of the \ grass, the herb yield- ing seed, and the fruit tree yielding freit after its kind, whose 'seed is in itself, upon the earth.\ wile, The \fire weed,\ is well known among farmers. - This weed is planted by the fire. The place whera'a coal pit bas been burnt may be easily distinguished by theloxurience of its vegetable products. When Kotzhue was in the far Northern seas, he landed upon an island covered with grass. His men, in making an excavation, found that this island: was a mass of ice, and that the loose earth on which the grass was growing, mas not six inches thick, In one,of. the Northern lakes, I found the \ Lungwort,\ as large ns a tea-saucer grow- ing on a bare granite rock, with a stem not larger than a common knitting needle, and ocnoly 1-4th of gn inch in length. .
