At a recent festival, held by the English in New York, in honor of the birth day afid ma jority of the Princess Victoria, Heiress Ap parent to the British Throne, Captain Marry att was present as a guest, and, on brfing toast" ed, arose and delivered the following amusing address, for which we are indebted to the New York Albion: "Gen lemen : I assure you that it is with great pleasure that I find myself surrounded j with so many of my countrymen, at such a distance from my native land; and further, that we are met together to celebrate an event of so much interest. "Your own gallantry will enable you fully to enter into my feelings, when I state to you that I have always conceived ? and 1 trust 1 may so without b ing accused of disloyalty ? * that 1 could serve a Queen with even greater zeal and fidelity than 1 could a King. Indeed, it would ap! ear that women are more calcula ted to wield the sceptre than men ; for, if we refer to our own history, we shall find that England never was so great and so glorious as under the dynasty ot our Queens, and that, alt:ioagh they sometimes surrendered up their hearts to individuals,they always reserved their heads pro bono ?publico Gentlemen, I have minutely investigated every form of govern ment at pn sent existing, and have come to the conclusion that the most legitimate, the one most approaching to perfection, and most a grecable to all parties, is a-rPetticoat Govern ment. ? a . - ? me advantages which would be derived from a youlliful Queen being surrounded by a youthful Ministry ofhec own sex, must be ob vious.

"At pr -sent we say the King can do no wrong, and his Ministers alone are responsi ble. But if the Government were constituted as I propose, no one would ever allow that either her Majesty or her Ministers cou'd do wrong ; and how much grumbling would be saved"to the country. "Gentlempn, that there is a strong feeling towards this form of government in Engla id, is m de evident from the numbei of old wo men who hold offices under the Crown ; but as 1 perceive that you are already inflamed with the idea, and I do not wish to produce revolutionary feelings, I shall drop the sub* ject- .

The reading public have ?een the no tices of the recent experiments of Ehrenberg and Cross, in which some ot the low *r orders of animals were produced by elect- icity, from a fluid containing sil^x and muriatic acid; they have also seen the notices of the late discove ries of Davenport and Cook in an electro magnetic engine. We are now to notice further discoveries by these invisible agents ? they are the mo tions, and the causes of motion in animals, in and of animate and inanimate matter, and in animals, and of animals, in the mehanic arts, and also of electro galvanic symptoms and electro magnetic remedies in chronic diseases. H. H Sherwood M. D., of Cin cinnati, has been investigating these sub jects many years, and describes and de 1 monstrates these motions in a great variety of cases, so as to leare do doubt on the subject whatever. They are the push and pull, or pull and push motions, and are the motions of electricity, galvanism, and magnetism, and produce all the motions in na ure. We need not dilate on the impotence ot these di-cove-. ries; they will be understood by scientific men throughout the world. A new age is begun. The moot important pirt o! these discoveries which will be immediately felt by the commu nity, are the new symptoms anil remedies in chronic diseases. VVe have seen the Dr. de~ tect disease in a variety of cases where it was affecting organs and limbs, with tfce most per feet ease, without any previous knowledge of them, and symptoms are no doubt invariable. Indeed they are such as to require no previ ous knowledge of the disease necessary, and demonstrated in such a way as to give confi dence to the patient in the certainty of the diagnosis or the nature of the disease and the organs aflected.and form a wide contrast with the uncertainty attending the old or common j symptoms. He shows tli.j body formed on the principles of the galvanic battery for the pro duciion of motion by the electro galvanic fluid, and when chronic enlargements of the organs and limbs arise, one of the motions (the repul- ; sions and expansions) prevail in the organ or limb over the other motion (the attractions and contractions. To cure the disease in any of the organs or limbs, the most safe and sim ple means are adopted. They are, we learn, electro-magn.'tic remedies consisting of a pre paration of gold made and maintained in a negative state, and a preparation of iron made and maintained in a positive state. They reverse the order of motions in the organs or j limbs wnen the attractions and contractions prevail over the repulsions and expansions ; i without any restriction in diet or other nwtrns the redirction commences itnmedia'ely, and in, j a few weeks all the cases (with few exceptions in the last part of the last stage,) are entirely and permanently cured. These results have attended the causes in this city, and causes analagousare detailed in a small popular work published by Dr. Sherwood. The Dr. has been travelling several months, visiting some of the principal towns in the western States for the purpose of making the medical profession acqua nted with these dis coveries, He arrived here a few weeks since, where he proposes to spend part of the summer. In closing these remarks it may be useful, and save much unnecessary suffering, from the ap plication of severe remedies, to announce to the profession a fact developed by the new symptoms which proves that ail the symptoms that are given for spinal neuralgia are dedvc* ed from false premises, in as much as the symptoms given for that disease are never symptoms of any kind of disease of spine what ever. N. B. ? The chronic diseases alluded to generally originated from a scrofulous dia* thens, affecting the organs and limbs, and known under the names of consumption, King's Evil, Liver Complaint, diseased and distorted Spine, Lucorrhoes, disease of the hip joint, white, swellings, &c. &c.

A large and splendid Steam Packet, called the Charleston, has lately been built and is to run between Philadelphia and Charleston. It is one of the amusements of the loungers in Broadway, New York, to throw vitriol o n the dresses oftho ladies. In Charleston, 5845 shares have been sub scribed to the Insurance .and Trost Company in Co!umbiap476 shares. The" deep distress of the country, and the desperate and before unthought of crimes to which it leads, are shewn by the novel fict, that during the last week there have been se veral attempts made to rob editors. An exchange paper very shrewdly remarks, that General Jackson made a mistake when he said he would restore the constitutional currency. He meant the con/inen/aJ currency. The following odd (and quite improbable) information, comes to us throrgh the Ruther ford, N. C. Gazette. 4 General Jackson. ? Just as our paper was going to press, we learned from a gentleman of high re spectability, just from Tennessee, that Gen Jackson has come out m a letter in favor of a United States B*nk.

The excellent arti cle concerning the Southern Reuiew, which we lately credited to the Mercury , was from the Pendleton Messenger. We again remind our readers that it is the bounden duty of every Southern man to give at least the sup port of his subscription to an undertaking the purpose of which is to elevate our literature and defend our institutions. "Before that God to whom I am responsible for what 1 say here, I believe the annals of human idolatry and delusion, cannot furnish an example of more impudent, audacious and monstrous imposture, than that which this Administration is attempting, tad, I fear, with too much success, to palm upon the th?

Nothing that I have read, c mongst all the superstitions of the world, transcends its monstrous audacity." ? McDuffie. ? It is proposed in a Pittsburg paper that the Government shall improve the climate of the Northern portion of the United States, by "draining the great Lakes." The idea is doubtless suggested by the wonderful skill which the Government has displayed m drain ing the Treasury and the people. ORIGIN OF POLITICAL ECONOMY. Plato, who in his Republic, B. 2, skctcf.es the separation of social employments, in order to shew how the diversity of human want, brings men together into extensive societies is t*ie first of the Ancients ?vho noticed, tho' but in a political aspect, any of the laws of Production. Aristotle, however, discusses the difference between natural and artificial Production; bu t upon neither does he seem to have had any distinct ideas. See his Politics. It was in l^aly, soon after the Rivival of Letters, that an enlarged Commerce began to enlighten itself, and investigations of the laws of Currency and Exchange sprung up. Among abundant examples, that constantly crowd upon us, of the degradation and slavish nessto which the bulk ofthe American people have descended, the following resolutions, u nanimously adopted at a large meeting lately held in Philadelphia, afford a striking speci men. If the blood which animated the hearts of the race of *76 yet beat in American veins, the People would long since have dragged from "their places the wicked and foolish men who have destroyed the property, the laws, the morals, and the spirit, of I he country. But in stead of this, each fresh act of ryranny, each new outrage upon law and common sen.se.oolv encreases their loyal devotion, and they pledge themselves to support ??t :e orders of the Exe? cutive, either now issued or hereafter to be is sued." 1.
