chariot wheels, mill-stones, ropes of ships, cannon

them burst into a flame. There are other meanof clicitinz fire, but the instances I have siven

may suffice ?0 call your observation to tlie subject. Tire or heat makes bodies heavier tlian they

were when cold. In a winter's day, if a plate of

gold i-e briskly rubV! fl--iinst another, both will qrow hotter nnd hotter, til! they cradusMy become red hot, and at the point of melting; yet the plates increase in weiirht and sie, which shows that the particles of thi- cadd are not converted into f.re, but that an additional quantity of heat h:.s been collected from tho atmosphere. The fluidity of humours, juices, e. vegetation, pu'refartion, animal heat, and numerous other chemical processes which contribute the comfort of human life, ilepend upon this (ire diffused throughout the universe. A natural division takes place between fire that

yhines, and that which does not shine. A piece

of iron taken out (if the fire before it is red hot. j;ives no lihb yet is capable of setting lire to

other bodies. Shining lire is of two kinds; one

commenced their massacre, but fortunately some , producing ILd.t only, the other loth light nnd

of their confederated slaves informed their mas

ters. A body of men was immediately raised at Bayou .Sara, and some 1 5 or 20 of the leaders have been arrrested, and will no doubt be tried and executed immediately. This is no humbug. tScnd me up a dozen of your best bowie knives. T. S. It appears to have been a reguhrly organized conspiracy from this jdace to "atchcz, (neaily lot) miles of coast.) Tho leaders have been white men, one of whom is now in jail at St. Francisville, nnd will no doubt be eTceuted.

We find another letter on tho French side cf

the Courier, dated July 21, giving the following details: "We have had a nczro insurrection, or rather it was on the point of breaking out, when the plot was discovered. All the white population rom Natchez to Baton Kouze, and all the negroes refusing to join the insurrectionists were to be asr assinated. There are in our prison twenty-two negroes who have been given up by their masters; about a dozen more are expected to-day, to be exaahncd and tried. White men are implicated in this servile plot, and were to have been the principal leaders.. One of them was taken yesterday near Jackson; he is safe in prison with the nogroe. A rumor prevailed yesterday that he

would be hung without form of trial. 8inee

aturdrv, no one has slept. The militia and citi

zens keep guard around the prison, and the patrol

maintain nn active watch, Ac." It is possible that before our paper goes to

cress, further particular. may be received if so.

heat. Flame is the brightest and subtlesh part of

the fuel, ascending above it, and has been termed

red hot smoke: it varies in color, according to the

nature of what is burnt. Sulphur produces blue

fame, copper-dust green, tallow yellow, and cam phor white.

Soot is an earthly matter, formed by the fames of coals, wood, or other fuel, adhering to the sides

of the chimney. Smoke i.s a humid vapor exhaled

by the heat, so nearly approaching to the nature of fame, that it kindles into a ihtmc very easily. Ashes are threarth and salts that remain after the

evaporation of the other particles of the fuel. The subject admits of many more remarks, but thev must be deferred to another paper. l'a.rfield. It i so seldom thhtwe sec even common justice meted out in a loeo foeo paper in relation to any measure of the present administration, that it of lords us pleasure to transfer to our columns the following remarks from the "Natchez Free Trader," on the bill for the relief of Mrs. Harrison. The tribute to the lamented Harrison is ns just as it is elo-jnent. How does it rebuke the sentiment of our Loovfoco delegation in Congress that the appropriation was an "unwarranted and wasteful expenditure cf the public money." Xihvil!e B-oiucr.

The north rtiul south are equally interested, because silk may be produced in everv part of the Union. Why will not our

There are hundreds of thousands of women and children and infirm persons, who have no employment, who would glroilv eng.ige in this business. Why delay? Let the Members of Congress cut sdmit or omit a few of their speeches, and at e-nce accomplish this great object. It will help the poor, give employment to the idle, correct the unfavorable balance of trade piessing so heavily against us, ami add great, durable, and increasing weaidi 10 our eountrv. 1 venlv believe if, as ?u;.TTes!cd, a duly eopi-il to that imposed in 1810 on cottons had been imposed on Silk, that at this time, in addition 10 supplying our own want?, large amounts of ,i!k would have been exported from the United States; and that the money we have paid for imported silks now worn out would have saved us from our rmbai rassrnents, and prevented the wide-spread destruction which our discredited circulating medium has brought upon us.
