CO" Here is a, goJ rticle from the Philadelphia Ledger, which we hope none of our' readers will pas over: Military Politicians. "When Gen. Scott undertook the command of the army in Mexico, we said that he would nobly redeem himself from" the nvrk ward position into which he had strutted with Iiis 'hasty plate of soup." We knew our man. We knew that, if a peacock or a turkey-cock out of the camp, he was a game ctck within it. And nvst nobly did he fulfill the expectations of . I1 who justly appreciated his military character. The laurels which he won for the country and himself, at Vera Cruz, Cerro Gordo, Contrera Churubusco, will flourish while the country exists, or it history is extant. Cut unfjrtunjtvly for General -Scott, his duties in the field wen expended or ended ; and true to his instinct of Inordinate vanity, he laid aside Frederick and Marshal Saxe, and put on Ancient Pistol. Had he been put in cLse confinement and a straight waistcoat, when he ceased to have a campaign or a battle on hand, he would have been saved from a ridiculous position. Nor is General Scott alone in fault. General Worth could not keep himself out of political intrigues or professional rivalships, and Genera Pillow could not resist a temptation to make himself the greatest man that ever did exist. And the "squabbles" between General Scott and Mr. Commissioner Trist are another precious chapter in the war between tiie frog and the mice, that aid in making our Mexican fftirs a laughing stock to the English money jobbers wlio have contrived to make millions out of our credulity. Ti en we have General Taylor's letters about pol-'i'-g, of which each day shines upon a new one, vine of them telling, and all of them proving tniit, lie .s entirely out of place when out of his tT f-SMOU. All the-e things furnish several impressive lessons. O'.e is that, the camp is not the best null for spinning and weaving material f"r civil rulers ; anoiher isthit, our military men rontrol , our government quite too ntucli ; aiio;lu r is that the people are the authors of all the miscriief, by their thoughtless exaltation of every n.an who gains a battle on land or water. We have had two military Presidents. But each of them was an ettraordinary man; the man of his age. Neither of them had much military learning. Yet each, with an iron will, great dignity of character, great sincerity and honesty, and great fertility of expedient, was able to acquire great influence over inastfes 'f men, and consequently to achieve great military success. Every soldier of the Revolut on knew that Genera! Washington was an honest man in earnest, with extraordinary common een-e, and therefore followed him with a willing heart and a confiding mind. The same qualities won the heads and the heart of the whole army at New Orleans. They carried these qualities into the Presidency, where they were as useful as in the field. Neither of them was a statesman, according to the books. But each was an earnest patriot, with The practical common &nse adequate to the difficulties of his position ; and consequently was each sustained by the people with both confidence and cordiality. But all good Generals are not Washingtons or Jacksons ; and in vain shall we look for either among the principal heroes of the Mexican war. General Taylor seems to exceed any of them in the manly simplicity of Washington or Jackson. But in most of the letters which he has written, as if to show that anybody may fish one out of him, he shows quite as much the simplicity of credulity, as of common sense. Washington and Jackson exhibited the sturdy simplicity which cannot be imposed upon, and scorns disguise. General Taylor exhibits a little of that amiable simplicity which anybody may dupe, because it suspects no guile. In the field he is a Napoleon ; out of U a greenhorn. But why is the camp a bad school for civilians? The strict discipline so necessary to military government, restrains the freedom and expansion of thought essential to the statesman ; while the jealousy of rank and competition for" honor foster that suspicion of subordinates, that impatience of opposition, which are unfortunate traits in men who must govern by reason and consultation, and not by positive command and blind obedience. Our military men control our government too much. We have long seen this in the management of the navy, which seems to have been created for the exclusive benefit of a few Commodores. And we now see it, as in the last war, in the management of the army. In both wars, the general officers seem to have had too much discretion. They quarrelled then, as they do now. And then, as now, the government at Washington, instead of commanding quiet upon penalty of dismission, tried coaxing and courts martial. And this mistake has been founded upon the very erroneous belief, that, the country could not get along without them. We have often said that, if every officer of the navy should leave it suddenly, we 'could soon fill their places as well from the mercantile marine. And with a very high appreciation of our Generals, we add that, if every one of them should leave tue service to-morrow, we have plenty of colonels and majors to fill their places. The people abound in tal

ent, and are decidedly military, and the country is tilled with well educated soldiers from West Point. Our successes in Mex co are quite as much due to the indomitable courage and chivalrous pride of character in our men, and the native talent and military knowledge in our subordinate officers, as to the military experience and learning of our veteran generals. We will give all our regular generals to the Mexicans, and still beat them, five to one, with our volunteers, and ur regular x Miers and regimental and company rtt:r-rs. Who, before the war, thought of Shields and !'!! .v mid Cndwalader &ud Pierc a generals ! Yet vewran of a quarter of a century in camp coohl h'tve done better ! But where is the fault 1 In the people. They seem to admit but two ideas in government, the camp and the Presidency. In the camp, they take for granted lhat every thing dejiend on the General. Yet something depends on the officers and trinjps. In civil government, they take for granted that every thing depends on the President. Yet the Legislature, the Judiciary, even the people themselves, have some concern in the affair. Cherishing these two ideas to the exclusion of all others, they connect them as almost inseparable, and therefore so soon as a General gains a battle, proclaim him as a candidate for the Presidency. It if all wrong. Cwissirs M. Clat. We find in the New York Evening .Mirror the following notice of the result of the suit of Cassius M. Clay against the rioters who took down his press at Lexington, Kentucky, and shipped it to Cincinnati. We know nothing of the grounds of the statement that Henry Clay hurried home to throw the weight of his name and presence against the plaintiff. "The suit of C. M. Clay ts. James B. Clay, the eon and law partner of Henry Clay was lately brought to trial in the Jessamine Circuit Court. Samuel Shy, E-q., on of Mr. C. M. Clay's counsel, attempted to postpone the trial, as his client (C. M. Clay) and his principal witness, the publisher, William Neal, and the two other counsel, Messrs. J. Speed Smith and Garret Davis, were absent. But Henry Clay, who had hurried home from his grand electioneering tour, in order to aid, by the power of his name and presence, in the overthrow of the liberties of his State and country, assisted by ex-Chief Justice George Robertson, (the author of the 'Secret Circular,) T. F. Marshal, Mr. Robinson of Georgetown, and A. R. Wodley, Professor of the Lexingtdn Law School forced Mr. Shy into a trial. Davis Harlan, E-q., of Frankfort, was called in to assist Mr. Shy. The trial was most animated and interesting. Shy and Harlan covered themselves with that glory which eloquence, united to' and vindicating justice, can only confer. A verdict teas given for C. M. Clay! and the Hon. Henry Clay and his son, James B. Clay, fell to the amount of $2,500." Rer. Mr Clapp has created a great sensation in New Orleans by publishing a sermon, in which he undertakes to prove that, according to the Bible, there Is no such place as hell." The Delta says the excitement is terrible, and adds "His extraordinary and novel position has given great offence to nine tenths of the christians of our( various sects, who insist very warmly opon their right to be damned eternal. Several' elderly ladies protest that Mr Clapp has deprived them of their only hope and solace in life and many of our pulpit orators say iat if this doctrine grows popular, they will lose their most copious and available themes. Now it would be unbecoming in us to give any opinion on the subject, so we shall content ourselves with the judgment of Frederick the Greil, who, when appealed to by the citizens of Eonigsberg, to decide the controversy, whether they would be damned hereafar, replied, 'If the good people of Königsberg wish to be damned, 1st them be damned r

Seattiln? Rebuke or Jntlge JIcLeau. Mr. Senator Foote, of Miss, on the Oth instant, alluded to the late anti-war and anti-American letter cf Judge McLean in lh following justly severe style .Sir, one of the judges of tbe supreme court has lately taken it upon himself, whilst the country was n 2 aged in a war with a neighboring nation, to throw the whole weight of his personal character and official influence against his own government, and in favor of the public enemy. He has declared the war with Mexico unjust, cruel and unchristian. He has done more; he has undertaken to dictate to Congress as to the legislation proper to be adopted in relation to this war ; and has recommended measures such as would have disgraced the nation, and which no true friend to his country in either house of Congress could ever have sanctioned. He has urged that no supplies should be granted for the support of our army in Mexico that no authority should be given to Congress for the issuance of treasury notes, so that the government might be compelled, if the war should be continued, to resort to the most grinding taxation ; and thus, by the influence of serious suffering upon our people, to constrain them to demand of the President the recall of our brave troops from Mexico, and the termination of the war, without such indemnity for the past and security for the future as can alone secure the national honor. Sir, I have no words strong enough to express the contempt which I feel for such sentiments as this judicial functionary has dared to avow. I know not which most to condemn, the unpatriotic views which he has promulged, or his unblushing audacity in attempting to dictate to Congress as to the course proper to be pursued at this delicate and difficult juncture of our affairs. It is certain that he has been guilty of a high offence against public decency that he has expressed sentiments which, if acted out, would consign him to the scaffold as a traitor to his country that he has soiled, and deeply soiled, the pure ermine of justice, with which be stands invested that he has shown himself anything but a true American in heart, and a wretched devotee to faction in its worst and most accursed form. I will not say that his conduct has been precisely as bad as that of the notorious Arnold; but I do say that our public councils have been profaned by insidious harangues that Lucius Cataline himself would have been ashamed to pronounce ; and even the high tribunal where a Marshall was once seen to preside with a majestic dignity which acknowledged no aöinity with the low feeling of partisan warfare, has been so discredited by a presidencyseeking official, that neither gentleman nor patriot can consent hereafter to be elevated to the noblest and mo3t sacred office in the republic, without feeling that he is disgraced even by the attempt to advance him.

The Abolition of Slavery in the French Colonies. The decree of the Provisional Government abolishing slavery in all the colonies is of great importance, not only in a moral but in a commercial point of view. It will have a great influence upon the supply of sugar, particularly from the French West Indies. Air. Kettel gives some statistics on this point. In 1794 a similar decree ruined Hayti, and from a French colony it became an elective military monarchy, of which the independence was acknowledged by France in 1825, for 150,01)0,000 francs, in five annual instalments. One of these was paid, when it became apparent that the Island could not pay the balance, and the amount was modified. In 1700, the population of Hayti was 30,831 whites, and 434,429 slaves. The exports of the Island were mostly sugar and coffee, amounted to 21,000,000 per annum. In 171)4, black slavery was abolished, and with it the productions o( the Island. The present French West India Colonies are the following : Free population. Slaves. Total. Martinique, 40,000 117,502 157,502 Guadaloupe, 32,059 95,009 127,GGd Guiana, 5,05b' 16,592 21,C4tj Total. 77,115 229,703 306,818 A law was passed in 1831 for the gradual emancipation of the slaves, and the number h is been reduced about 1500 per annum. The productions of these Isalnds are as follows : Sugar and Molasses, lbs. Alartiniqe, 56,052,203 Guadaloupe, 85 .050, 33d Guiana, 5989,321 Coffee, lbs. 1,142,915 2,013,779 41,004 Total,lbs.t 157,092,022 3,198,453 This produce all goes to France, and the government derived last year 37,122,000 francs, say $7,000,000, from the duty on the sugar. The probability now is, under the decree alluded to, that this supply will be entirely cut off, and this large demand equal to the whole Louisiana crop must fall upon foreign sources for French consumption. The consumption of Great Britain in 1847, as compared with 1844, was as follows : 1844. 1847. Increase. Sugar, lbs., 496,571,512 732,452,902 235,881,450. The influence of this measure must be great. That black emancipation will prodnce any results in the French colonies different from what it did in Hayti and Jamaica is not to be supposed. The decree, in fact, is an abandonment of the colonies, as well as of the colonial system. Pondicherry and the other settlements in the east will follow as a matter of course. Important arrest of Counterfeiters in Canada. On the Ulli inst.. High Constable Clark arrested, at Barns ton, near Sherbroode, in Canada, seven persons, and lodged them in Sherbrooke jail ; having found on the premises of some of them a quantity of bad money and some tools for coining; a quantity of bank bills and and a printing press, under a forge in a blacksmith's shop. Also seme counterfeiting apparatus, and about one hundred counterfeit half eagles. About $20,000 in counterfeit bills, 120 half dollars, and 160 Ainercan quarter eagles, with a lot of balf eagles made of copper for galvanizing, were secured. The bills are on the following banks: l's2'sand 3's on the Marblehead Dank, Mass.; 1's and 3's Atlantic Bank, Boston ; 2 s Hartford Bank, Ct.; 10's Indiana Bank, (well executed, said to be from the original plate:) 2's Eastern Bank, Itangor; l's Atlantic Bank, Boston; 10's Suffolk Bank, Boston ; 2's Lebanon Bank, N. 11 ; 2's Worcester Bank, 51 ass; 5's Lansinsburgh Bank; 5's Danbury Bank 2's Deny Bank, N. II; l's New England Bank, Boston; 2's Burlington Bank,Vt;6's Dover bank; l's Kingston Bank.N. Y; 2's Mechanics Bank, Mewburyport; 5's and l's Chilicothe Bank, Ohio; l's Vergennes Bank, Vt; l's Washington Bank, Boston; 5's Nashua Bank, Mass. Tbe plates secured are a $3 tlungeford Bank, Adams, Mass.; a $3 Bank of Chenango, N. Y.; n $2 Gloucester Bank, Mass.; and on the opposite side of the same plate a $5 Suffolk Bank, Boston. The discover) which resulted in the seizure and arrests above mentioned is attributable to the energetic operations of the committee of the New England Association of Banks. Nearly all the banks in New England have associated themselves together for the purposa of putting a stop to the manufacturing of counterfeit money ; they have extended their agencies over a large part of New England and elsewhere, and although they have been but about a year in operation, the result of their labors has, been signally successful. The books of the Suffolk Bank show a wonderful falling off of the receipt of counterfeit bills: Singular Süicide. A Washington corespondent of the Baltimore Sun lias the following: A most horrible case of mcnomaniacal suicide occurcd recently at Eaton Rouge, La., in the person of a gallant soldier, an Army Major, who lost an arm in one of the earliest Mexican battles. Sitting alone in his room, at the above military post, the fancy took fast hold upon his mind that he saw the Virgin Mary sitting or standing in the midst of the fire upon his hearth! She told him he was devoid of the requisite firmness, and, as a test required hitn to thrust his remaining hand into the live coals. He did so, and held it there until the hand and half of the fore arm had peen consumed ! The spirit, or vision, eeemed not to be yet satisfied ; whereupon the Major, fitting upon the floor, filled his lap with coals, and his body was burned to the bone ! His servant found him in this condition. For two days he seemed to remain insensible, but revived sufficiently to relate the particulars as given above. Strangest of all, he experienced not the slightest pain during the time his arm was burning, or while the living coals were heaped upon his lap. His death was consequent upon the injuries self-committed upon his person. OT During the last ten years, under the reign of Louis Philliffe, in France, fourteen thousand citizens have been imprisoned for political offences ; six-ly-Sve newspaper were suppressed ; over eleven hundred prosecutions against presses were instituted; and more than a million of dollars in fines have been imposed upon editors and publishers. Q7 The government taxes on the London Daily Times newspaper are more than half a milUonof dollars a year. -

Interesting Letter. The friends and admirers of Henry Clay, celebrated the anniversary of his seventy-first birth day, in New York, and invited Mr. Van Büren to the Festival. To this invitation he returned the following answer : LETTER FROM MR. VAN BUREN. New- York, April 7, 1343. Gentlemen 1 have had the honor to receive your polite invitation for the 12th inst., and thank you very sincerely for the obliging terms in which you have been pleased to communicate the wishes of your associates. I hope to be able to leave the city before the 12ih inst., but candor requires me to add that the position in which Mr. day has been placed by his friends in relation to the pending canvass for the presidency, will unavoidably attach too much of a partisan character to your festival to permit me to participate in it consistently with my views of propriety. The rule I have prescribed to myself in such matters would irrduce me to decline an invitation given under lika circumstances by my political friends. I do not, however, regret that your politeness has made it proper for me to say, that you do no more than justice to my feelings in assuming that 1 appreciate as they deserve the commanding talent and manly frankness which have so often been displayed by your distinguished friend in the councils of the na. tion ; and that I have sufficient candor and liberality to recognize those characteristics in a political opponent. To you who understand the matter, it wou'd be

superfluous to speak of the very wide difference of opinion which for so many years existed, and does still exist, between Mr. Clay and myself, in regard to almost every political question. But we are fortunately too liberal to suffer such differences to affect injuriously our personal relations. ' It would essen tially diminish m self-respect to believe that I am capable of claiming, as I always have done, the ut most freedom of opinion for myself and unjust enough to deny the same privilege to those who are opposed to me. To embitter the few enjoyments a a -4B sin a a which public lite atiords by an indulgence in sentiment so contracted and illiberal, is a weakness which it is my happiness to believe I have been as free from as the infirmities of nature will permit. My persona relations with Mr. Clay are cf a very friendly char acter, and 1 have witnessed the recent demonstration of personal regard and political devotion on the part of his friends m this city with no other feelings than those of respect. A determination so earnest and un yielding, to sustain as long as public station is agree able to him, an aged statesman who has spent a large portion of his life in upholding principles which those who exhibit that determination regard as hav ing the public good for their object, is a demonstra tion at on.ee honorable to those who make it, and well calculated to instill into the minds of the young men of the country higher and purer motives for political action thin those which mere party warfare too often enlists. I am, gentlemen, very respectfully, your obedient servant, M. VAN BUKLN. A. M. Bradford, Jas. It. Wood, M. L. Davis. The Memory of Jefferson. ihe iunalo Courier has called our attention to a movement which had escaped us : "The Indiana Democratic State Convention, at Indi anapolis, passed a resolution recommending to ihe National Democratic Convention, when next convened, to take into consideration the propriety of erecting a suitable monument to Thomas Jefferson, bear ing tins inscription, penned by Ins own hand: '-Thomas Jeff er son, the autlior cf the Declaration of Independence. Ihe convention added, that if the Old Dominion is forgetful of her duty to her son, her younger sister, Indiana, will not prove ungrateful. We regret to see it stated that the buriol place, or grave, ot the great apostle of democracy is in a wretchfd and neglected condition, without a distin guishing monument or enclosure." We hail this tribute of respect as due to the mem ory of one of the greatest men whom this republic has produced. There are one or two mistakes, how ever, in this paragraph. The epitaph is incomplete It should have run : "Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence, and the founder of the University of Virginia." A simple monument, with this inscription, was raised over his remains, on the heights of his own favorite Monticello, in full view of the University of Virginia. But the tomb was not well put up, and we have been informed that the epitaph has fallen off! We trust the necessary facts will be collected by the delegates from the Albemarle district, and duly reported to the Baltimore convention. But we hail it as an admirable sign, that the democracy of Indiana should meect at Balti more with instructions to pay respect to the memory of Jefferson. It shows the spirit with which the con vention will be animated in carrying out the great republican principles of Mr. Jefferson. Washington Union, April 2T. Texas and the United States. The Legislature of Texas has passed a series of resolutions, which has been approved, declaring that the State has never parted with jurisdiction over any of her territory, that Sante Fe is an integral part of the State of Texas', that the attempt to establish a separate government in Sante Fe, is a violation of the rights of Texas. The following resolutions accompany the preamble: Section 1. Be it resolved ly the Legislature of the Stale of Texas, That our Senators be instructed and our Representatives requested to lay this subject before the proper authorities of the United States, and to use their utmost endeavors to have such measures taken by the Government of the United Slates as will secure Texas from any encroachment upon her rights by the people of Santa Fe. Sec. 2. Be it further resolved, That our Senators be further mstructed to oppose any treaty with Mexi co which may provide for lessening the boundaries ot lexas, as established by an act to define the boundaries of the republic of Texas, approved December 19, 1836. Slc. 3. Be it further resolved. That the Governor of the State is hereby authorized and required to issue his proclamation to the people of Santa Fe to or ganize their country under the laws of the State; and that he also requests the President of the United States to issue orders to the military officers stationed in Santa Fe to aid the officers of Texas in organizing the county of Santa Fe and the eleventh judicial district of the State of Texas, and in enforcing the laws of this State, if it should be necessary, to call upon the officers of the United States to put down any re sistance to the laws of lexas. Texas intends to maintain her claim to the Rio Grande, and all the way tip. Impof.tant Imfrovement. The improvements in the construction of the team boiler, introduced by Mr. James Montgomery, of New York, are said to be very great the steam boiler in very much reduced in weight, may be placed in far less space, and is rendered safer, while the consumption of fuel is reduced one half, and the duration of the boiler rendered far greater. It has been adopted in eome of the steamboats and manufacturing establishments with great satisfaction, and if all said of it be true, Mr. M. has conferred a benefit to society by his ingenuity. Anti-Rent Bloodshed. The Hudson (N. Y.) Republican states, that the Deputy Sheriff of that county, while returning from a sale on execution against Finkle an anti-renter, he was fired upon from the road-side, by two persons with rifles. Both balls took effect, one in the thigh, the other in the breast, passing through the lungs. But slight hopes are entertained of his recovery the sheriff's name is John II. Smith. A Present to France. Arrangements have been made and completed for the presentation, on the part of the people of New York to the city of Paris, of a grand liberty cap, on the 21th of this month. The ceremony will take place at the Fark Theatre, and on the same evening a grand military and civic ball will take place. Martin Van Buren, ex-President, will present the cap, and M. de la Forrest, the French consul, will receive it on the part of the city of Paris. Ajikansas.- They have a straightforward way of doing business in Arkansas, that is quite refreshing. A minister out there, a few weeks ago, undertook to come down on our war matters. The next day one of the deacons dropped him a line, saying that "people in his diggins went to church to hear the devil abused, and not their country ; and if he persisted in 'violating their taste any further. all he had to say was that geese etill grew feathers and North Carolina tar."

UlUft UClU Pius IX. In one short year, Pius the Ninth has earned the glorious title of Regenerator of Italy, Saviour of the Country, and the iather of his People. Pope Pius is but 56 the prune and vigor of ma ture manhood. One may hope much from a mind like his, which has at least two decades yet in pros pect before senility. His figure is noble and commanding, and his features exhibit the handsome, marked, true aristocratic outline. "How beautiful is our grand beüissimo Papa!" exclaimed the delighted people on seeing him. A fine impressive exterior is always sure to influence the feelings of the multitude; indeed, one may assert, ai an axiomatical truth, that without it no man is fitted to be a popular leader. Genius, serenity and benevolence, are stamped upon his high, calm, expansive brow. The extreme expression of kindness irradiating his countenance might at first induce the belief that he is deficient in firmness, e&vs our author : out his serenity is rather the result of the perfect self-possession, which conscious power always gives ; the noble calmness of a high resolve filling the whole mind, and the determination to execute it with the vigor of a Ilildebrand, and the inflexibility of a Sextus Quintus. "The young Fcretti was destined for the army ; but, as even from childhood he evinced a eerious religious disposition, Pius VII. persuaded him to enter the church. He soon after joined the mission to South America, where he became eminent for piety, devotion, and extraordinary benevolence of disposition. His whole happiness seemed to consist in immolating himself for others. One day, in the midst of a wild forest, he stopped before a wretched cave, where lay a dying Indian, surrounded by his helpless family. No help was near the dying savage had probably been abandoned by his tribe; but tbe young iMastai pitched a tent beul tie tended and taught the dying man 6aved his eoul, though he could not save his body and when he died, Mastai dug the grave with his own hands, and placed a cross upon the turf. Little he dreamed then that young priest in the lone ludian savannah of a day when two hundred millions of God's people would acknowledge his sway, and the triple tiara be placed upon his brow. On the death of Pius VII. he returned to Italy, and was made Archbishop of Spoleto he was then thirty-five and in 1832 was promoted to the see of Imola. His generosity to the poor around Imola was so lavish, that his major demo frequently found there was not a baiocco in the house to procure a dinner for his eminence. "Well, I must breakfast upon cheese," said tlio bishop to him upon one of these occasions, beholding the pallid aspect of the major domo. "But for dinner, your eminence V "Why, cheese, too,'! said the bishop. Another day, having invited tho Archbishop of Spoleto to dine with him, he had to sell his watch to procure' the entertainment. One really feels for tho poor victimized major domo in such trying moments ; and only two months before the bishop was elected Pope, this worthy and much tried provider of dinners of nothing was heard denouncing, in most unmeasured terms, some unknown delinquent, who had abstracted a silver spoon. "Cost what it may," he exclaimed, "I'll find him out, and turn him out of the house. "Then you must turn mo out of the house," said the Cardinal Mastai, opening his 6tudy room, "I alone am guilty." He had actually sold the spoon to Eupply the necessities of some poor family. His kindness to the poor outcasts of the Ghetto has made him almost an object of worship to the Jews. Some even imagine that be is their long expected Messiah. One day a poor old man fell in convulsions on the pavement. No one would touch him. "It is a Jew," cried the people. "It is a man !" exclaimed the Pope, descending from his carriage ; and pressing through the crowd he lifted tho poor outcast in his arms, placed him in his own carriage, conveyed him to his home, and never left him until his own physician arrived to take charge of the poor old Jew. What a subject for a painter I Dublin Nation. The Capacity of the West. The North American Review, speaking of the west, says : From the Alleghanies to the KockyMountains, from the frozen lakes of the north to the tepid waters of the Gulf of Mexico ! Every soil, every climate, every variety of surface. Of all the great products Df the world, coflee is the only only one which does not, or may not, grow there. Take the people of Britain, Ireland, France, Holland, Germany, Italy, and Spain, und place the whole in the valley beyond the Appalachians, and it would continue to ask for "more." Ohio alone, without sinking a pit below the level of her valleys, could supply coal equal to the amount dug from the mines of England and Wales for twenty-live hundred years ; and Ohio is but a pigmy, in the way of bitumen, compared with western Pennsylvania and Virginia. Iron abounds from Tennessee to Lake Erie, and forms the very mountains of Missouri and Arkansas. Salt wells up from secret storehouses in every northwestern State. Lead enough to shoot the human race extinct, is raised from the metallic dykes of Illinois and Wisconsin. Copper and silver beckon all trusting capitalists to the shores of Lake Superior. And mark the water courses, the chain of lakes, the immense plains graded for railroads by Nature's own hand, the reservoirs of water waiting for canals to use them. Already the farmer far in the interior woods of Ohio or Indiana may ship his produce at his own door to reach Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, or New Orleans, and every mile of its transit shall be by canal, steamboat, rail-car. Most Horrible Occurrence. An attemp't was recently made to murder Mr. J. Thompson, of Greenfield, Wisconsin. He was a bachelor, and while sitting alone in his room reading, he received the contents of & double barreled gun fired through the window, across the forehead, tearing one eye entirely out, (breaking the frontal bone) and wounding the other so as to render him entirely blind. Wounded as he was, he groped his way to the door, fastened it, and then crawled to his bed.

A man has been arrested upon suspicion. Gen. Taylor's opinion, has been given in advance, concerning the line assumed by the Trist treaty. He declares it untenable, insufficient, and almost impossible to be maintained, unless at an expense equal to that of keeping the whole of Mexico. This is his opinion, as a military man acquainted with the ground and its peculiarities. What he will say as the head of a party, and a candidate for the Presidency, is yet in darkness.

This disease is considered by all to be the most dreadful that ever afflicted the human race, as its tendency is to insanity, madness and death. With such fearful results as these, w bo, among its unhappy subjects does not shudder. The most skilful physicians of Europe, as well as those of our own country, have pronourrcg? Epilep sy (or falling sickness as it may be termed) incurable. We are happy however, lo stale to our readers that Drs. I vans & Hart of this city, by long and tedious research, have discovered tbe primary cause of this dreailliil disease, and also Its remedy a remedy which in most cases will in a very short lime effect a permanent cure. We speak thuspos itive, because we have within the last few weeks seen quite a number of persona who have been cured by their remedy ; one of whicn is man of unquestionable veracity, who stated lo us that be bad been afflicted with epilepsy in its worst form for nearly 24 years, and had from time to time employed the bet iredlcal talent to be ftund, and all to no purpose, until be placed himself under the treatmentof Drs. Ivans at Hart, which was but a few weeks since, and now, says he, "I thank Snd, I feel that I am a well man. I also feel it my duty to proclaim it to the ends of the earth, that those similarly afflicted, may find re'ief." We quote the tangnage used by some that are now under treatment, and others who have been cured. One says. "I have suffered beyond mr powers of description, but now I rejoice in the prospect of soon being fully restored, aa my health of Inte has much improved." Another w ho is an eminent lawyer and well known in this city, says, "My son bas been afflicted for years with epilepsy, hut ia now enjoying good health from the Vegetable Extract. Its fame, says he, should and ou;J?t to be sounded lo the ends of the earth." Another says,"Langunite is entirely inadequate to express my gratitude to Messrs. Ivans k Hart for having been the means under the Messing of God, ofrestnringme to the enjoyment of good health after baring been afflicted with epilepsy in its worst forms tor more than 23 years, and my morning and evening oUations of praise and thanksgiving shall continue to ascend to that God who bas afflicted, but lo make rue whole." We doubt not that the time hrnot far distant when thousands w ho are now trembling under the hand of this dreadful disease, and fearing that every attack may prove fatal, will find permanent relief and he restored to new life by using this celebrated medicine, HART'S VE.OFTAALE FJC1 RJtCT.Kew York True Sun, N.

Chill Fever, Dumb Ague, Intermittent and Remittent Fever, Liver Complaint, Jaundice, Enlargement of the Liver and Spleen, and all the various formt ot bilious diseases. Tbe following extract ia from the "Farmer's and Em.fant's Hand Book," a valuable work of about five hundred pages tecently published by Messrs. Appleton dr. Co. New York. In chapter 8, pae S!35, Ihe author, speaking of the Fever and Ague, remarks : "There is a valuable medicine sold in most of the Western cities, w hich we can conscientiously recommend for Fever and Ague, and other bilious diseases; it is tbe India Cholagoga, w hich is prepared by Dr. Osgood of New York, who has made the bilious disorders of the West I, it especial study. We are no friend to those medicines usually called patent, but we have '-ad ample opportunity of knowing the invaluable effects of the Cholagogum In bilious cases." The speedy and permanent relief afforded by the Cholagogue, arises from its prompt and healthy action upon the blood, cleansing it from bile ana restoring it to purity ; thus striking at the root. Its tendency is not simply to suspend disease, but to remove the cause on which it depends. It is equally adapted to all ages and conditions of ths system. From S. F. Carry, CotuuelUr at Lav, to tht AgtmU Cincinnati. Cincinnati, October 11, 1816. Messrs. Sanford (k Park : In June last I was attacked with that most afflicting and unpleasant disease, the Chill and 'Fever. Tbe oaroxvsms returned daily, and were very severe. My physical energiea had been mnch impaired, by a previous attack of bilious fever. Having tried aeveral favorite remetttea without relief, a friend in whom 1 had confidence, recommended Dr. Osgood's India Cholagogue. 1 procured a bottle, and followed the accompanying directions. The consequence was, that I had but one paroxyism after taking ihn first dose, and my general health wai rapidly restored without using any other medicine. I disposed wilh the remainder of the boule to two other persons similarly afflicted , and With the same results. One ot them had been shaking for eight months, and was relieved in two days by the use of the Cholagogue. I conaider it my duty, as it if my pleasure to recommend it, having; the most entire confidence in its sanative powers. Yours, truly, 8. F. CAREY.

In tbe fall of 1641, I was attacked wilh a severe cold, which seated itself upon my lungs, and for tbe space of three years I was confined to my bed.

My friends persuaded me to give it a trial, though I had gven up all hopes of recovery, and bad prepared myself foe the change of another world. Thiouch their solicitation, I wat induced to make use of the Genuine Wistar'f Balsam f Wild Cherry. Tbe effect was truly astonishing. After five years of affliction, pain, and suffering, and after having spent four or five hundred dollars to no purpose, and the best and most respectable physicians had proved nnavailing, I wat soon restored to entire health by the blessing of Cod and the am of Ir.
