There is a spring in the bounds of Kentucky mission, in llarlin ounty. Kv., twelve miles north of Manchester on the waters of the Kentucky river. It is eallod the boiling spring. Though in the mountains, this spring rises in a level, continually rolling and boiling as though the water was in a kettle ovcr a fire. There is no branch running to nor from the spring; it never swells above its common stage nor decreases, only when a lighted torch is applied to it, when it immediately takes lire, and continues to burn until all the water is dried up by the heat of the fire, which takes some time. The blaze arises three or four feet high, at times, in irregular flashes. The spring is two fret deep, mid a? well as I could tell by feeling with mv stall", its bottom is cferaggy ra ks. It is about three feet o er, and quite round ; the water somewhat tnuddv ;its iastc is not ( tv unpleaan, resembling that of stone coal: its smell is similar to that of the American oil; its medical qualities are said to he good for rheumatisms, ulcers, occ.

We h ive been shown by Dr. Plaiitou, of Philadelphia, plans for an entire new mode of navigating canals, shallow waters, rivers, eco., of which that gentleman is the inventor. The principle is in the propulsion of the boats by means of w atcr-light revolting c liudcrs, furnished with paddles. One of these c lingers is placed at each end of the boat; a:ul acting both ::s huovances and propellers, they cllect.as the inventor veiy satisfactorily demonstates, the import mt object of impelling the boat over the suifaee of the water, w ithout having la overcome the great resistance encountered by the u-aal method of forcing it through the waters. The curlent treated by the action of the forward cylinder passes entirely tiTfder the I oat. and by I. fling il up, aids in impelling it forward. Tin: w .w rni:v i o tiiinos iv Jr.ri"iatso iovmv.

The potatoes are of the common blue kind; and we think Randolph township may safely challenge the county, or even the state, to produce their eipials. ftpThe follow ing is the official returns of the votes eien in the 4th Congressional district of Indiana, for a member of Congress, on the fir-t instant.

Hy a notice in the Times to-day, it will be seen that ttie Agricultural Society is to meet a sain on t'.;o first Saturday in rienth. 'Owing to the unsettled state of the weather, no meeting was held on Saturday list, as was advertised. XX'e are of opinion that our farmers and mechanics do not lake as great an interest in the success of this society as they ouht to. No pel son can have any doubt as to the good effect of sech Societies, and if one is established here, anil conducted in a proper manner, the benefits resulting therefrom will be beyond all calculation. X e therefore hope that those who are most deeply interested will not be behindhand in attending the meetings. riioi.r.itA. Tho ( holer i lit.s been eommittinj dreadful r ivagis in some of the small tow ns in Kentnekv and T nne-see. Lusscli i!!e, in Kentucky, h is fared, perhaps wor-e than any other. Out of a popul it ion of about 1500, it is said that 100 have fallen victims to this disease. XX"e have seen a letter from Bowline-green, dated on the i'MU nit. which describes the consternation at Biissehiil'j as very great. But one physician was able to attend en the sick, and there was not an ounce of calomel -to be had in the place. Tin; ur.AtK-i.Ec;s.

They cannot now find rest any place. Judge Lynch is after them and the moment they set foot in one towii, the Judge is at their heels; and they arc compelled to lly for refuge to some place else; but there is no protection found there. I'm ty town along the Mosis-ippi, and in fact through all the Southern and Southwestern States, have taken measures to prevent them from coming into tin ir towns. It must be gratify ing t l the people of Vickshurg, Xatchez, and other 1 1. ices, to sec their fellow citizens taking such a course. All that is necessary for the final ind complete extirpation of this villainous class of human beings, is to keep up this excitement ai tst them for some time, and they w ill be compelled to resort to honorable Inealis to gain a subM-tence. sit: V MHO ATS. Xew steamboats are almost i very day ma king tin ir appearance on our rivers. It is beyond conception, perhaps, of the ast amount of business transacted by these boats on the Western Waters, and the amount of capital employed in them. If they continue to increase for a j ear or two to come, us they have for the few past years, they will be so thick that we shall nevi r be out of the hearine of the noise of the "jrciiiK !'. XX'ithin the hut few days we have noticed three new boats passing -the Li tris Cass, a very splendidly fmi-hed boat on the outside; the wXasrjipn, and the livfus I'utnam. In Charleston, S. C. and New Orleans, public meetings have been held, wilh a view of taking measures for preventing the banished swindlers and gamblers from infesting those cities.

STEAM DOCTORS. XX'e take the follow ing paragraph from a letter from X'icksburgh, to a gentleman at Lexing. to Ky., detailing the proceedings in regard to the negro insurrection. XX'e do not see whysteam doctors particularly should have engaged in this insurrection plot, unless it is that the people of the South are getting their eyes opened, and consequently throwing these (piacks out of employment lor lew there are, indeed, but what are accomplished quacks. XX'e hay e known some few exceptions but they are few. "The steam doctors have suffered very much. The first four w ho were hung were all steamers. Two more steamers have been hung since. The character of steam doctor was a fine cloak for these fellows to assume. They had no hooks to read no time or pence to lose in preparing, and it introduced ihem amid families and negroes. A steamer is now looked upon w ilh a suspicious ex e."'

The committee for fixing the scale of premiums, have reported, and arrangements arc made to award a number of very valuable premiums. It is truly gratifying to witness the increasing interest and zeal of the public to sustain so valuable an institution. We have reason to believe that there will be great competition for the premiums to be awarded for fine slock. The high prices asked, and readily paid, for line animals ol all descriptions at this time, clearly shows that a proper spirit of improvement is abroad among the agriculturists of the country. A committee of arrangements has been appointed to superintend the preparations that are now in progress, for the accommodation of the society and their visiters. The governors of the adjacent states, and a number of distinguished agricul turists and bleeders have bcciunvited, and are expected to attend. Kvery ex ertion will be made by the society to render their Fair acc.eptible to the compctilors for their premiums, to (heir guests and to the public generally. Our sister slate, Indiana, is nobly sustaining the cause with enthusiasm, in the crganigaticn of her county societies, and bv her board of agriculture. The Engineer of one of the Massachusetts rail-roads finds that by not allowing spirits of any kind to the men employed, thirty per cent, is gained in the quantity of labor performed, besides the avoiding of quarrels and disturbances. In the face of a xasl accumulation of facts, and of each one's individual experience, were it properly noted, so many still presist in believing that the body is assisted at labor and the mind refreshed by a liltle spiritous stimulant, that it is well to make known all ihe striking cases in proof of the mulliphx benefits, not of temperance merely, but of total abstinence. The gamblers of the west are bunled from their sec ret retreats tvith great energy and perseverance. A number of town meetings have been held, with view of preventing their arrival, ?nd in some, anti-Gambling Societies have, been formed. Swindlers and Horse thieves should he included in the list. Gov. Runnels, of Mississippi, has issued a proclamation calling upon all good citizens to aid in suppressing inMirrccuonarv movements, anu in ap prehending the lawless and villainous white men now traversing that state, with a viexv of instilling rebellion in the minds of slaves. Several individuals charged with be mg professional iianiolers. Have willnn a few days, been arrested in this City one of w hom has been sent to the w orkhouse for three months. . They have all been recognised in most heavy penalties, one as high as 814,000, to keep the peace and appear at the next Circuit Court. Isxinglon h'y. (iazitlc. Postaiik.
