By Dr. W. J. Raskin : # The State Homestead Hill?It has an unjust and immoral tendency, a curse o the \ poor and injurious to the people at large. Mr. B.

[For the Ledger. Mr. Editor:?1 have just been rending an -article in your useful paper, stating the beneficial effects of the quitting of the use of \ tobacco on Mr. C. M. Heath ; nnd by it I j suppose you arc willing to publish nnything d that may have a tendency to benefit mankind, and do away with a filthy nnd expensive habit. I used tho pernicious weed up! -wards of thirty years?my average weight ( after I was grown was from 145 to 150 lbs, 1 up to March, 1851; at that time I left ii off J and March 1852, I weighed 180 lbs. For yearn previous to that time, I was often troubled with din pepsin, since then it has en- j tirely left me. If any person doubts my | u-?irrhL thnu ,-nn ? I yards nnd prove the thing. i DUDLEY M. USSERY. Stabbing?Stkanoe Deposition.?a i man by the name of Wm. Drown, was I yesterday brought for examination before ' Magistrate Robertson, upon a voluntary ' revelation made by himself to Mr. James > J. Densely, proprietor of an ice cream gar- 1 den in tho upper part of the city, where lie (Drown) was staying. The following i is the deposition made by Drown : 1 On Wednesday night last, between one ' I and two o'clock, being aroused by a noise ' in tho yard, Mr. D., tho proprietor, being ' * absent, he got up nnd repaired to the spot accompanied by a little negro l??y about six years old. On approacliing the place | . thev discovered several men in the yard, and one up in n tree. Drown, on reaching them, wan seized and thrown upon the ground, by which he was much injured in I ' - the hand, and huving a knife, he, u]m>ii recovering himself, pursued one of tho party, and indicted several stabs upon his body ; he says the man cried out don't kill me ! don't kill me! Drown stubbed him several times; the man fell as though lie was dead. Drown says, that some time afterwards, thinking he had killed the man, he took the body and plneiug it in a large sack, took it out into the wood. for concealment, and ufter going a considerable distance, deposited it on the ground ; tho man did not move when thrown down. DroWn then returned to Mr. Deasely's premises, slept the rest of the night, and returned for the body, with the object of delivering it up to the authorities, but on reaching the spot it could not bo found.? lie does not know how to account for its disappearance, but supposes tliat he must | have been followed by the party, who no doubt removed the body. 1 Brown does not know certainly if the ' persons were white or black, but thinks 1 they may have been negroes as they look- , ed black to hiin, but may have hnd their faces blacked. He thinks their object was to steal chickens or commit some theft. 1 The abovo was detailed to Mr. Bcaseley | by Biown who requested that Mr. Beaseley j would publish the circumstance in some , of die papers, which might lead to some discoveiy of the injured person. On Mr. Beascley's return, previous to ' seeing Brown, he enquired of the boy < where Mr. Brown was, the boy mentioned that he had gone down to the city, having , had a fight the night previous with some men, and hurt his hand. He mentioned that Brown had given him a knife to clean and when questioned with rogard to the state of the knife,said that it had blood on it. 1 Search had t>een made,and up to die presenttime, widiout any further discovery or disclosure. Brown has been committed for further examination.?C. Standard. Burolart and Theft.?The store of | Mr. W." A. Gourdin, corner of North Commercial wharf and and East Bay, was forcibly entered on Wednesday night last, by some cool and daring villain, and robbed of a few articles of groceries, which scarce repaid him for his trouble, and by ; no means compensated him for the risk.? An entry was forced through one of the windows on East Bay, the bar having been violently drawn by prising it with some instrument; two of the panes were broken in and ssvoral bottles of wine piled I against the same, knocked down into the cellar below and broken. The villain after having succeeded in making an entry I helped himself to several hams, marked in the name of Mr. Gourdin, and then made bis exit through one of the back windows. Tho whole proceeding was marked by the greatest coolness and do. , liberation on tlie part of the robber, from various evidence* perceptible.?Ibid. * *? /i nwt f - i 1*1 ra or iiurt v/lai.?ine UMiDUig (Va.)

Another Cuban Gxi'kdition Reporten to have Sailed.- Advices from Madrid to the 21st tilt., state it was confidently reported that a telegraphic despatch had been received from the Spanish ambassador at Paris, stating that an ex|>edition had sailed from Chagres against Cuba,un der the command of an American General. It was also said, in connection with the above, that the Spanish government whom the American minister, Mr. lfarringer, has hitherto been successful in obtaining the pardon of prisoners brought there as the result of the last expedition ?have set their faces against any further exhibition of clemency, and the few who from one cause or another, have not been brought within the former pardons, ami are still at Ceuta, have little chance of getting out by any such process. Mrs. Clay.?A correspondent at Wa hington writers. 44When Mr. Clay became Secretary of State, Mrs. Clay resided here, and was universally admired for kindness and affability, and her evening parties were renJered as agreeable by her pleasing manners as by her brilliancy and spirit. I remember an incident thai occured when lie had the duel with John Randolph. As he was returning from the ground, he naked, anxiously, whether Mrs.Clay knew what had happened lie had informed lier that be was going out, and had kept it a secret. Just lielbro bis return, she lieard it from a servant, and, meeting him in the passage, threw her amies around liim, exclaming, <), Harry! how could you ro without letting me know!' I mention these circumstances in consequence of the widely circulated statements, lately made in letters from Washington, that Mrs. LJlay never was in this city?where her illustrous husband passed a largo portion if his life, and established a name that is honored by the whole civilized world."
