"But what is it which must undergo a retarnation, in what manner and on what prin oplesis the reformation to be founded?" We cannot answer at this time, all the Harries of a friend to science," but surely i; J it will answer some, the balance in future.

Again, "with due submission to that priv ileged body of physicians denominated, the faculty, I shall place Samuel Thomson among the reformers of the healing art, Dr. Waterham, again from the same author bays: "make any man of due reflection believe that such a practice could have spread as wide and among such a deserving, inquisitive people as those of New England certain ly are, without having discovered its nothingness, its worse than nothingness, its vein and nonsensical pretentions. It is impossible. I will close these quotations from Dr. Waterham's letter published in the "Boston Courier.' Still I consider it (Thomson's System) a valuable anchor, the emblem of hope to to which is attached a firmer cable, that numbers have been in vain trying to pick to oakum, but which I trust will be like the strongly twisted cord that binds our happy states together, acquiring strength by age. - Now and hereafter if the Thomsonian systim of medicine has no merits at whose shrine about three millions of the free people of the U. States pay their devotions, let it go down to the grave to rise no more; but if it is a system of medicine deserving merit let it at least have its due and receive that attention from medical men which dignifies the Faculty rather than degrade them.

Mr. Frederick Hoover Sir, duo regard to my own feelings, a proper regaru for 'be public, and the contempt which your conduct in thi .'natter of controversy has induced me to feel for you, all, 'npel me to desist from further noticing either you or your base, vile and false statements, published in your attempted apology for the lying and malicious slanders with which you have assaipd my character. I therefore, close this dispute with you, on my jwrt, by distinctly stating to you that you have lied in the different statements you have made concerning the originil matter of controversy between us, and this I am ready to prove, and challenge you to call on me to do it, and in regard to the insinua tions thrown out by you in your last communica tion, as to the certificate of Graves being forged bv me 1 have only to say that they are as false and unfounded as the author of them is mean and despi cable.

We are requested to announce Mr. THOMAS TYNKR, as a candidate to represent Wayne coun ty in the House of Representatives, of the state legislature. BE ALE BUTLER, is a candidate for re-elec tion to the Associate Judgeship. JESSE WILLIAMS, of Centieville, is also a candidate for re-election as Associate Judge Mr.lRVIN REEL, was elected Inspector of Elections, on Monday 3rd inst. In our hurry of ma king up the inner form of hst week's paper, we omitted to notice it among the other officers. A post office has been established at New Boston in this county, and William Rctssey, Jb. appointed Postmaster. Mt:!nvK,is- received; but we think it not advisable Vj publish it at this time. In a few days the present Council will be released ef their burthen, and other citizens will be called upon to take the winch Mentor complains. V Persons who resided here in d.iys bv-aone, will recollect the beautiful groves ot cedar, with which the banks of Whitewater were covered, particularly above where the cotton factory now stands. Tan years ago it was the resort of every visitor to our village then the summit was clothed with a thick set grassy sod, and studded with majestic oaks the side with cedars, through which the wild honey suckle twined its fragile vine, and bloomed its love' flower the rose with its modest tints of coloring ac-land peaSiint fragrance added to the scene the ... , . humble, though n not less beautiful violet and pink displayed their varigated hues, and in its season, the luscious strawberry was not among its least attractions. At short distances playful rivelcts meandered through the grove, until they reached the precipice, then leaping down the cliiT, they forrced rrost lovely cascades, almost bidden from the sight by the over-reaching branches and encircling vines; but now how charurl the sent.. The er.f,r.rit. t , 'n4 "Pim l man has felled "the Old familiar Oats, . ,i .l...u ,t -;,., L j i j ,i and the thoughtless visitant has despoiled the ce - dars.

The Governor of this State ba, we understand. appointed David Dale Own, Est, of New Ilarrnony, to superintend the Geological survey of the State, is authorized by the act of last session.

We invite the attention of oar readers to proe-

pectus, in another column of this paper, for publishing the "Battlb ovTsmcxsom, and other poem, by Wx. Wallace." We would be pleased to re ceive 15 or 20 dollars and forward them to the au thor. He is the writer of a scries of numbers, en. titled "American Poets" originally published in the Palladium of 1834. It is the first volume of original poetry, we have known published in this state, therefore we hope Mr. Wallace may be compensated for his industry. ! Just as our paper was going to press, Frederick Hoover handed us the following certificate for in sertion : I hereby certify that the statemente Frederick Hoover has made and which have been pubhahed in theiPalladium relative to the controversy with Wm. S. Addleman arc, so far as my recollection serves me, correct, PUSEY GRAVES. Advantages or thic Gold CuaaeKcr. The Treasurer of the State of Maine, anxious to exhibit his orthodox notions on the question of the gold currency, when notified that the State's portion of the surplus was in the Suff olk Uank in Massachusetts, drew a draft on that institution for the amount, and requested that it should be paid in gold. The request was complied with, and, at the expense of 8300, he got the gold home. Here he found that a large portion of it was foreign gold, tne precise value oi eacn piece ot which he could not ascertain, and the officers of the towns who were authorized to receive it, declined accepting it, knowing nothing about it. The banks refused to receive it on deposite! Here was a pretty state of affairs nobody would have his gold, and the parjv7' were not backward in expressing their dissprtTobation of his golden movement." After soinc coaxing, the Suffolk Bank consented to receive it again, and give him its notes, and the gold was carted back at another expense of $300. Here ended the Treasurer's golden scheme, by wh?ch the State lost $600, when, he might have sold his drafts at i per cent, premium. roulson s Advertiser. In Sparks' Life of Washington is the following sentence la relation to profane swearing. It is from a high source, and worthy the attention of those, who are in the habit of spiinklin;; their conversation with sundry little words which "might be omitted without injury to the sense.' 'The general is sorry to be informed that the foolish and wicked practice of profane swearing and cursing, a vice heretofore little known in the American army, is growing into fashion. He hopes the officers will, by example, endeavor to check it; and that both they and the men will reflect, that we can have little hope of the blessing of Heaven on our arms if we insult it by our impiety and folly; added to this, it a vice so mean and low, without any temptation, that every man of sense and character detests and despises it. j Miss Jane II Beck with advertises herself ready to receive propasals for matrimony, in the 25alt Kiver Journal, published at Bow linr Green, Mo. She thus describes herself: "Near eighteen years of age, fair complex ion, rather light colored hair, blue eyes, com mon height rather slender, and a round face. 1 am by no means wealthy, though 1 have enough for a comfortable support a plain English education quite a wieldy temper and well disposed towards most young men, though 1 will not condescend to notice every top, who may call himself respectable. The gentleman that takes me (if any one does) must have the following admirable qual ties attached to him, viz: A mild temper, a good leeling towards the girls generally, and be in favor of the man he thinks best quali fied for the Presidency in 1 840. lie must, also, be a man that will enguard himself when in danger, and have patience when he is dejune.

We understand that Mr. Wal ace, (its author,) is on ne a young man, and this production ol his senilis does him high honor; be has caught a Suark of inspiration from the right altar." Almdjtan Bonner. "We have read an Ode, delivered at the recent celebration nf the Tiwiiecanoe Battle. We take leave to say, that, in oor I aim Lie opinion, this production contain more of the fire and frenzy of genuine poetry than any other poem from so young an author, with which we have at any time met. Irs author is neitl er a rli j mepinner nor a poetry manufacturer, but pr ssesses native poetic genius of no commoo order. And were ours a cooutry in which poetry talent received any tolerable patronage, we should eijiect to see young Wallace oon shining with no medium biilliancy in the galaay nf the Western Muse.
