The Baltimore Patriot of the 1th says There remain three counties to hear from Dorchester, Somerset and Worcester, each electing four delegates. They are all Whig ct .unties, and ought to tdect nothing but Whiff. If they have done so, we Mi ill have 13 delegates and the I.ocofocos 31), in the House. The whole number cf Delegates is (not 7J, as was erroneously stated in part of our edition yesterd iv,) and the Lojos must then-fore get three more than it is ascertained they have now, to give them a majority. We do net belicC tliey Kill get thrm. P. S. We Live a report from Somerset that 3 Whigs and one Loco, (Capt. Bouldin, former Sheriff of the comity,) arc elected. We understand that Capt. B. got 300 votes in Brinkley dis net, a strong Whig d.strict, which elected him. If this account be true, the Whigs have 31 nnd the Locos 10 votes, leaving Dorchester and Worcester to hear from.

Swelling Iilootl Clairvoyance. A remarkable case of southing is said to have been exhibited, for some time past, in the pcrson o' Slzan E. Tearson a young woman living 'ith . Mr. Hiram Westfall, in this town. She has been afflicted several times with severe spasms, in which she suiters great pain, and on two or three occasions sweat blood profusely over the stomach, and from the forebead This sweating of blood she prophesied before hand, and on each occasion, it took place at the precise time predicted, in the presence ot respectable persons, whose testimony we are bound to believe. It is also said that she has frequently, when setting in a closed room, related accurately what some members of the family were doing in other apartments of the house or premises. That she will tell the time of day to a rninütc, by a time piece in another room, out of her tightand, that frequently she has been heard reading the Bible correctly and fluently in her dark room. Slit says she can read end tell the time of day perfectly well in the dark, as it is all plain to her sight. Many of her Paying? and doings are strange l-eyond the common experience of human actions. We give them as we have heard them from respectable witnesses. Wabash Courier. The occurrences related above, or a part of ihem happened while one of the Editors of the Siftte Sentinel, was on a recent visit to Terre Haute, and he can testify that the Courier falls short in its relations of the preternatural pheuumena, as testified to by the witness. The-young woman in the lirst place had predicted, as stated by the respectable fimily in which she resides, that she fhould be taken rick on a certain day and hour, that she should be peculiarly atlected ; should for a certain length of time, sweat blood; and finally, that she should recover on a certain day.

some two weeks from Hi? first attack of illness, al i

o'clock. All these events are said to have happened

as the subject predicted. There were also arious other similar strange incident", which we shall not specify, as we have been promised a full account from the pen of a capable gentleman, who can testify to much from his own per-Mi;i! knowledge How much of those phenomena is to be attributed to the influence of the imagination over the subject herself; and how much the witnesses of the phen omena may have been misled by anticipations of them, is more than we can pretend to decider. But if wj allow as much weight to the testimony of the latter, as we ihould to their testimony in relation to ordinary occurrences, then the case is more remarkable than that of the 44 Seeress of Prevortt," an account of which was recently published by the Harper's, translated from the German ; and is equal if not superior to the alleged revelations of Emmanuel Swcdeiil org, w l it h were made the basis rf new religions ideas. What is net the leat remarkable circumstance in this case is.that there is apparently no M sm v ism in it. In fact it is said that experiments to magnetise Miss Pearson have been made in vain. Neither docs she appear to have been in the 44 sleep-waking' sttite, as related of the " Seeress of Prevorst." But while

Proercss of Protection.

The Lowell Patriot of September J0th, contains an account of a meeting of boarding house-keepers, connected with the factories ; the object being to obtain from the corporate factories, an advance in the price paid for the board oF females. $1 25 cents per week. The Patriot remarks : . . The price paid for board, we arc well satisfied, is lower than in justice it should be it is not sufficient to a fair remuneration of the necessary expenses of providing a good table and other accommodations. All, webclieve even the agents themselves will admit that the price is too low. Then, why not advance 3 We will not undertake to s ty that the agents are directly to blame in the matter. They act for others; yet their influence, wo have no doubt, is quite sufficient, if rightly directed, to secure a prompt and satisfactory advance in the price of board. The stockholders are now reaping rh h nnd abundant harvests, and the v can well aiford to be jtst if not generous. We think so a!d, but justice forms no part of the protective system. Think of seventeen cents per day

to feed and lodge a stout girl who must labor fourteen hours per day, being upwards of the magnificent sum cf five cents each meal and two cents for lodging. We think that stockholders who pay Mtcii sums while they receive twenty pr cent dividends, cannot have impudence to complain of foreign pauper labor. X. V. Xtiis. 44 Palter Labor." The success with which the eastern manufacturers used the cry of 4 foreign pauper lalor ' in compelling consumers to pay taxes to manufacturers, is already being turned against themselves. The 7V?7.7i? has been the most persevering utterer of the unmeaning cry, and we find in that pape of Thursday thu following reason for supposed distress of shoemakers in New York : 44 The boots and shoes made in the city, arc principally 4 Custom-made, that is, made to order. The

more common article sold here, is chiefly nvtnrjnctuml in th F.itst'rn Stairs, where the irorhni ? urn Ilia Jr almost less than hi'f the sum it costs oir cify wrezjv. Transportation from those places here amounts to a men song, and consequently ur mirket is filled with this kind of work, an 1 the laborer on this branch of industry in our city is compelled to submit to tie giiiulii. competition engendered, and give all h;s time and his health to earn fo"d and clothes." The pauper labor of New England is now the great evil it skeins. The pauper labor of old England was to be kept out by a Tar ill.

The most perfect exemplification of actual free trade

which the world ever saw, is to be found in these United States, considered as twenty-six 44 sovereign and independent " communities. Each buys what it pleases of the others, and sells what they respectively

please to uuy oi it, wiinout let or hindrance without the interference of Custom-house ofllcers without

charges or duties of any kind. Is it not a convenient

system 1 Is it not a just one ? Does it not promote tiie interests of all ! Apply the protective system to these States, and

each of them would lay duties Upon the products of cacli of the others. New York would prohibit the admission of wheat from the West, and of cotton and

woollen manufactures from New England, or charge

them with exorbitant duties, because she can produce j Maine to claim all Oregon, although she has a ri,rht horiown wheat j and manufacture her own cloths, to none of it. We say all Oregon, because she "ie(ieorgia would prohibit the importation of sugar from j mauds the Columbia to iu mouth, in lat. 13, and the Louisiana, and elsewhere, because she could grow her Mexican boundary conies to 4', leaving the United

own sugar ; and by making the duty high enough. I States one degree out of the 2 they own on the

the business would be eminently profitable to the

growers, though eminently unprofitable to the consum-

s. Every State, instead ot exchanging the commo

dities which she could most naturally and advanta

geously produce, for thoSc which, other States could most advantageously produce would by duties and

rohibitions, seek to exclude those Jnretgn corn mod 1ies. Thus all would do what they could, to invert the

order of nature raising oranges in Maine, and miking ice in Louisiana.

Substitute nations for the 120 American States,

and we are prepared to see how mutually beneficial would be a system of free trade, if mutually adopted

by those nations. 15ut it is naid, other nations tax

our commodities, and we must tax theirs in return.

Is this an hone-t argument, or only a pretext ! If the

firmer, tlien in proportion as other nations relax their restrictive system, we shall do the same. If the

Itter, wo shall secretly deprecate any such change,

and perhaps openly denounce it, as in the case of the

British Anti-Corn Law League. The grand object

ot that Association is the promotion of free trade :

m.irc especially free trade in breadstuiVs; and lirst cd all, in England herself. The value of breadstuiVs

imported into (Jreat Britain and Ireland, has amount

ed, on an average of the last twelve years, to n!7,OOO.OkO per annum ; and would have been still greater

but lor the heavy duties. No nation, perhaps is so deeply interested in a repeal of those duties thc very

obj-ct of the Anti-Corn Law League as tSi? United States. Why then should we, or any of us, ally ourselves with the British-corn monopolists, against the

efforts of the most excellent and truly noble associa

tion I

But we must have revenue. Undoubtedly ; and

tiiere is no mode of raising it so little burdensome to the people, because so little perceived by them, as by

duties on imports. v e propose no other mode of

raising it, except the three or four millions realized

annually from the sul .'S of public lands ; we kno.v of

none better. Still, it h a m de which bears very hard uimui men of small means, because it compels

them to pay;lmost as tnu -h per head, as the same number of richten ; whereas the latter ous'ht to pay

iu proporlicn to their property. A man worth ,ilt thl probably consumes half as much of dutiable g nids,

on an average, as a man worm xiuo.ooo. oonse-

niently the; latter pays but twice as much for the sup

port of Ijoverument as the former ; whereas he ought

to pay a hundred times as much. But waiving all this, wc agree that the necessary revenue, over and above the proceeus of land sales, is best raised by diitle3 on imports. The average annual expenditures of the (Bnerntnent f r many years past, have been neaily or quite sMO.OUO.t'CO. If we should keep clear of "wars and other extraordinary charge's we may possibly reduce them to .'.",( 1 10 ,tt!th To do this, however, will require the most rigid economy. If wccall the revenue from binds si'l.fjOO.OH) annually, there will remain to be raised by duties on imports, ,s! 1 ,f( HI. To raise this amount, would require an average duty of J1 percent, on slOO,(a.M,000 of imports ; which is about the average of our importations for the last 1 years. Nearly or quite one-tenth of our imports consists of specie-, which of course is free of duty. Sundry other articles are necessarily free of duty, or subject to a less duty than J0 per cent. Making these deductions it would be found that a horizontal duty on nil other

articles must be in thc neighborhood of 'S) per cent., in order to a fiord the requisite revenues. And the cost and charges of importation would be equal to about 1Ö per cent. more. So that the worst tliat could happen to the minufcturers, should the doctrines of the most ultra free trade mn, so called, be carried out, would be, that they, the manufacturers, would have a protection against f ireign, commodities, of 10 per cent, on the value ; or two fifths of the cost of the article. Is not this protection enough ! Can it he expedient to manufacture, in this country, goods which can be made two-tilths cheaper elsewhere! Cannot our labor be turned to better account in some other way ! Bit most free trade men are willing to make some discrimination in favor of particular articles.

The surrender of this to England will, like the sur

render of thc Northwestern boundary, be a bribe to a further claim, which is already preparing in California; The possession of California opens an endless dispute to our Texian boundary, and these interminable disputes are to be kept up to "avoid war." Now, war is only to be avoided by at once giving England to understand that her encroachments on this conti

nent have ceased. The matter will then end. The most extraordinary want i)f acquaintance is displayed in relation td the importance bf American interests in the Pacific ocean, and the absolute necessity

which has long since existed, to establish the United

States authority over Oregon. Let us take a glance at the whale traders that landed at the Sandwich Islands from Jan. 1st to Oct. 1st, 1311.

This interest is almost entirely American, and does not include a large trade in American vessels from the North-west coast lo China, and thence home.

iiiese vessels loucn ai me inuwicn islands lor supplies, most of which arc grown on the Oregon" territory. Now for this immense interest the United

States have never had a single irt in the whole I'acific wiiere this trade can be carried on. The whole has depended entirely upon the hospitality of the Sjuidwich Islands, and for ten years Congress has been lloodcd with petitions, from those interested, to institute some sort of authority and laws on the Oregon for their protection, some sort of refuge in case

ot necessity. Ibis has been totally unheeded. It is

true a bill was presented to extend the Iowa jurisdiction over the Oregon, and also to erect the new territory of the Nebraska and extend its authority over

the Oregon, but was not discussed last session. Thus

an immense marine and trade; have been entirely abandoned by our government, and no place of resort now exists but the Sandwich Islands. What was thc

situation of that trade, and what thc consternation of

those interested, when two years ago the English, under Lord (ieorge I'aulet, seized thoc Islands and an

nexed them to the British Crown At one blow V,(K) American ships and 10.0C0 seamen were at the mercy of the waves. It is true that the zeal of the British commander caused his movement to be premature ; but it was (nj'y premature. Twenty years ago the British seized the Falkland Islands ul a similar manner. Tiie movement was premature, and they backed out. In l-j:i the time was ripe, and they re-annexed them to the British crown by 4 'right of discovery !" England had in all last year but one whaler in the Pacific, yet she hadotr government vessels at the islands and on the Oregon coast. Now the only

harbor on mat whole; coast is the mouth ot the Columbia, and it is the only point in the property of the

United States, where a settlement for the support of a vast Pacific trade can be made. England to all apperancc, is on thc point of seizing that harbor and repeating her blow at thc independence of thc Sand

wich Islands although her whole interest in Oregon is a fast decreasing fur trade conducted by a f.-w miserable trappers, and one. whaler on the Pacific. One

movement of hers, however, will sweep the whole American interest in the Pacific to destruction, and we are told that the only way to preserve peace is to

give her the right to m ike that movement. To allow the English to remain upon the Columbia is to surrender the independence of the Sandwich Islands, to strengthen their claim to California, already commenced by negotiations, fortunately discovered, with Sinta Ana, and to throw open the western frunlier to her ceaseless encroachments. This we are told, is the vvay t- preserve peace." There are two classes who advocate this policy : the one is superficial and thoughtless, and supposes it is by this course building up a reputation for great wisdom and moderation. The other, directly in the foreign interest, because their dependences are in Canada and among the large class of alien residents, or receiving specified sums for certain publications direct from English r.tlbdnlx

Manifestly, prohibitory duties ran produce; no revenue, because under e'tich duties no goods would be imported. If prohibitory deties were extended to nil articles, there would be no revenue, and it would become necessary to resort to direct taxation for thc support of Government.

OrSome very interesting experiments were performed recently at Westminster, England, with an elcctrieal gun which was noticed as having been invented some months since ; but we have neglected a notice of it for some weeks, hoping to get borne further intelligence. The gun, a barrel for d;echarging bullets or balls Iths of an inch in diameter, is placed over the body of a machine, by which the propelling power is generated, and the whole moves upon a carriage with a pair of w he-els, weighing altogether half a ton, and is calculated to be drawn by one horse at thc rate of 3 or 10 miles an hour. When in position, a third wheel is attached, by which it traverses w ith ease and steadiness. Tho engineer is able to take a true aim, the barrel having a sight similar to that of a rille. The barrel is supplied with balls by two channels, one fixed and the other movable. This last may be made large enough to contain an immense number

of balls. It is calculated that 1000 balls or more ran be discharged a minute, the volleys being shot otr in almost continuous succession, thc stationary chamber supplying the barrel. This experiment, it appears, fully carried out all the inventor proposed when thc invention was noticed in April last. The bullets were driven through a thick plank, and afterwards flattened com pi ctt ly on an iron target. Those directed against the target, without the intervention of thc plank, were beaten to atoms and literally plastered upon boards placed by the side of the target. The force far exceeded that of any other military engine of equal calibre in which gunpowder is employed. A board 51 inches thick, at yards d. stance, was completely shattered through by thc bullets, as if done by a centre-bit and drill ; nnd the rapidity and precision of aim were extraordinary. For clearing a breach or sweeping a force, such an engine must !c most tremendously destructive. The secret of the invention has not been made known ; it is stated, however, that thc propelling power is produced by the application of gases, exploded by galvanic electricity. AxoTiir.R Mammoth. The bones of an animal that must have been of immense size, ore now being found in Evansville, Indiana. Thc writer of this paragraph visited the locality in July, in company with the ge-n-tlnnari who is superintending their exhumation. From the hours already found, thc genus of thc ani-m-il cannot be guessed, but thc lones of the clvis, the tusk and the ribs are nearly tw ice the fize of those of any skeleton the writer h is ever seen. Those of the mastodon in thc Philadelphia Museum, arc quite diminutive in comparison with them, lmt thc distinguishing peculiarity consists iu what seems to be a claw that was evidently attached to earh toe. Thc writer has in his possession a drawing of one of these claws. It is about live inches in length, two and a half in breadth, and one and a quarter in thickness. This peculiarity is not possessed by any skeleton that has yet been discovered it is not described in any of the books and is an entire nevv feature to those who have seen it or heard it described. Evcrv thing about the bones indicates that they belong to a species that has not before been discovered, and that the common mammoth must have been comjvarativcly a pigmy by thc side of it. Some of the bones arc very much decayed, and it is doubtful if the skeleton can be obtained in perfection. They arc found on the very bank of the Ohio river, from twenty to thirty feet below the snrfarc vf the ground, and mostly below low water mark. A section of the soil is thus divided : 1st, fifteen feet of sand and clay id, thre'O feet of old trees coated with iron IM, two feet of actual leaves Ith, ten feet ef shells, iron, &c, in which deposite the bones are found.
