Sixty Feet of Ice
The icc in tho Ottawa, river opposite Bytown is very rapidly disappearing. The great bed, or mountain rather opposite the mouth of the canal has not moved yet,- tilthough there is clear water nearly all round it. it may appear strange to our readers at a distance that we should have ice at this season of the year in tho middle of the river sixty foot thick, while near the shores there is none. The explanation appears to he this In the beginning of the winter the stream becomes frozen over unlil within a few hundred yards of the falls of tho Claudiere. During the remainder of tho cold season, and until the middle of March or thereabouts the floating ice from above the falls descends continually and slides along under what is formed below, until it arrives at a point where the current is not sufficiently powerful to push it any further. A tract of more than one hundred acres in the middle of the river, and more than half a mile in length is thus covered with the icc over CO feet in thickness. It forms along irregular hill 20 foot higher than the level of the water, and extending from a point opposite the steamboat landing in the Lower Town to the foot of the Claudierc Islands. This elevated region is traversed by cracks sometimes four or live feet wide and forty feet deep, into which horses have been known "to fall: In the spring it remains some time after the ice disappears. When the water "rises it moves down stream and usually •^grounds opposite New Edinburgh, like an -iceberg—altogether it .is one of the most interesting of the glacial phenomena of
North America it will commence its voyage in a few days, and then navigation will be opened in good earnest.

„SR ROMANISM DECLINING.—A
friend has fur
nished the Baltimore Clipper with the following extract from the communication of a very intelligent correspondent residing in Dublin, of recent date 'The Pope's priests in the west of Ireland are losing their llocks by hundreds, between emigrations and turning Protestants. Some of the chapels are now nearly empty."
Mad Dogs.
As a cry of mad dogs has been raised, the following, which we clip from an exchange, may be worth a perusal. 'A Saxon forrester, named Gastell, now of the venerable age of eighty-two, unwilling to take to the grave with him a secret of such import, has made public to thr Leipsic Journal, the means he has^used for fifty years, and wherewith he affirms he has rescued many human beings and cattle from the fearful death of hydrophobia. 'Take immediately warm vinegar, or tepid water, wash the wound clean therewith, and then dry it pour then upon it a few drops of muriatic acid, because mineral acids destroy the poison of the saliva, bv which means the evil effect of the latter is neutralized.'
jtf?" In the late fire at San Farncisco, ive notice a large quantity cf Ayer's Cherry Pectoral burned, in the possesion of one of the Dm agists of that city. Gold will not control disease, and even in that Ophir country they must provide this best of all remedies for colds, coughs and atYeetions of the lungs. Indeed,we happen to know that it is an almost indispensable companion of the muleteers and miners, who are so much and so continually exposed to the everchanging atmosphere of that climate.
The Weather asd the Crops. The Chester, S. C., Palmetto Standard, says:
After having learned from several of our •friends the sad e!T» cts produced upon the .growing crops by the late unexampled cold weather, we are not a little surprised to read the favorable accounts sent abroad from several other portions of the country. The truth is, our farmers have never had to contend with more adverse weather. Although the season has been unusually backward, much of the early planted cotton was^o severely nipped by the recent frosts as to require an entire replanting, and where seed could not be obtained the fields have in many places been ploughed up and planted in corn. The late planted cotton has not of course suffered so severe!}-, though the cold weather and the want of rain have very greatly retarded the growth of the plant and frustrated the efforts of our farmers in obtaining good 'stands.' The wheat crop lias also been considerably injured, and is now estimated at one third less than the average yield. The fruit trees and gardens, too, have fared so wretchedly that we have made np our mind to "vegitate" without the aid •of these almost indispensable luxuries. The corn crop is doing tolerably well, and is in fact the only crop which presents anything like a fair prospect. Albeit, we are sadiv in want of rain, the weather i.s now mild and pleasant, and we have good hopes that the season will in future be more propitious.
The Athens, Ga, Watchman, of the 11th inst., says: 'Incalculable damage to small grain crops, aj? well as corn and cotton, has been .sustained by the frost and drought together. "VYe doubt whether there will be half the crop of wheat and other small grain in this section this year. If the remainder of the season should be propitious, corn and cotton may recover, and even oats may make a fair average yield.'
The Aligator, Florida Advertiser, in an articlc on the recent unreasonable weather in that section says: •We regret that the crops have suffered, we fear serious injury, from the repeated nippings to which the latKfrosts have subjected them, and should we have many more such spells of cold weather, it would not need a prophetic eye to scan the result, or predict the consequences. We are informed that some planters have lost their cotton crops, and have plowed their lands anew, and sowed corn from their inability to procure another supply of seed. In our immediate section however, the case is more favorable though a slight extent only.
The scarcity of provisions is becoming of a serious aspect, and could the injury to the cotton crops in any manner ensure a plentuous supply of provision foi tho coming year, it would no doubt be hailed by some as commune bonum, or perhaps rather a boon of Heaven. The very necesseries of life are becoming to a great extent, beyond the limited means of the poorer classes, while the wealth of the more favored can scarce command them at a reasonable p.ric^» Thejaipglejp-ticle of corn commands
about $2 per bushel, and is scarcely purchasable at the highest prices. Flour .is held at $14 per bbl. Rice 8 cents per lb. Bacon 16, and hams 20 cents per lb., &c\,
Thus the results of cotton speculations and the increased demand for provisions in consequence of tho present European war, arc both readily perceived and seriously felt. However, we hope for better things for the coming year our planters we trust will make abetter move, and set the right ball in motion, or so guide themselves by the experience of this year that they may erect safe-guards.for the future.
The Mobile Tribune has received a letter from a gentleman of the highest respectability, and an extensive planter, giving a gloomy picture of the prospects of the cotton crop. It is dated Montgomery, May 2th, 1S54. The Tribune makes from it the following extract 'We Are still in the midst of dry weather. The rain of Friday last was a mere shower, which here and there brought up cotton but there is no stand of cotton on any plantation within my knowledge. I am inclined to think, from present appearance, that we may fail to get stanos at all, as many of the seed have been injured by the light showers which have fallen, swelling the seed without affording moisture enough to sprout them, and the dry weather causing them to contract. I have, say, ten acres of cotton on one plantation out of 00 acres, and half a stand on the other.— I will add that I got a stand one year as late as 7th of May, and made a good crop.
We cannot got stands, with rain to night, before the 12th or 15th instant. Many persons are planting over entirely this week, and others would follow suit, but have no seed to plant with. We had frost ou last Sunday morning, which killed all cotton upon low lands, and even bit corn to the ground when up in similar locations.'

One of my daughters was completely cured in three davs of a dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr. Means, one of our very best physicians tiee'y states that he considers it the best remedy we have for pulmonary diseases, and that he has cured more cases of Croup with it than other medicine lie ever administered.

This state of_ things too, doubtless, will continue to a greater or less degree until peace or a reconciliation of the matter of dispute is consuniated. But let this be as it may, it is quite as necessary now, as when 'at peace wilh all mankind,' we should go on in our several vocations in this land of general brotherhood, using our best endeavors for the comfort and happiness of our groat and growing race. It is not possible however, for all to see and think alike, nor do we believe it best, but we do contend that every man should do his part in that which seemest most right in his sight, for the accomplishment of this great work. For one, as an humble citizen, I have from time to time done what little was in my power in the way of supplying those in want, with the verv best and cheapest
