RNISCELLANEOIS. The Frovitier Wet.-A correspondent ofthe New York Journal of Commerce gi-es -ti amusing description of manners and doings on the remote frontier of the West. The introduction of judicial au thority and forms into the wilderness of Iowa some years ago is illustrated by the following story lowa isnow the finest frontier country io-the West,4and is setting up very fast. Judge Williams related to me some amu sitigseenes that he witnessed, when he irsttarted on his circuit, for the purpose Wlorganizing and holding his efirt courts - Whong the rude frontier people. In many *C'unties the had not had time even to eieit any kind of a shelter for a court QIionse. The best provision which could Li-beimade, was to form seatsof logs beneath 1iihiidie-ofra large tree, with a raised .seat'near its tiodgfr the Judge. The Sherifl~ould:pean rt by mounting a sitdMp, OrMur ;ndear by, and crying "O yes, oh yes," 4o uaionuncing to the , wholenontversethat thaecourt was then o ..pened, and inviting alleWb had business toattend. The Clerk sat o1_ abloek' of - wood, and I- used a ;bingle-on his knee for a desk. After the Grand Jury were em panelled, and charged by the Judge they were sent in care of the Sheriff to a large hollow or ravine, in which they could 'ir in conclave beyond the view of the court or spectators. A smaller hollow, or ra vine, was appropriated for the use of th PetitJury. The grass grew very tall in the neigh borhood, and if the Jurymen lay down in a ring in the grass, they could still more perfectly exclude themselves from obser vation. The Judge said that, one day af ter having charged the Grand Jury. and dismissed them to their quarters in the large hollow a tall ra -boned, live Yun kee lookig man, with hat in hand, ad dressed him as follows: "May it please your honor, I wish to speak to you." "Order sir, what is it?" "Judge," continu ed he, with the utmost gravity, "is it right for fellows to siake it in the grass?" "Hon what is that sir?"-"Why you see." said the Yankee, "there's some f.llows who's tarnel fraid the Grand Jury will find some thing agin 'em, which they desarve, and they are snaking up to the Grand Jury, on their bellies in the grass, kind of trying to hear what the Jury are talking about. "No" responded the Judge, with as much gravity as he couht command, "I do not allow of "Snaking"-Here Mr. SherilI, go station a guard round each Jury's hollow and if a man is found "Snaking," have him brought before me and I will cause him to-be purr. ished. Indeed, if this "Snaking," is per sisted in, I shall recommend a special Act to be passed, making it a misdemeanor." The fact was, the Judge said, there evere present at the time, some barefooted vagrant rascals, who were probably justly suspected of horse stealing and had -snaked it," on the Grand Jury, in order to find out whether the Jury intended to present them and if so to gain.time by this clandestine warning .and -flee-the jurisdiction of the Court by. escaping into Missouri. He re lated many other curious scenes, which I have not time to repeat. 'Singular.'-An .steemed corres on dent has furnished us with the following singular fac found among other papers sold at auction in 1830,amo g other relics of Gov, HaNcocK. Coming from such a source, the ill be read with inte rest - "The word Lord is found 6062 times in the Old Testament. T1he word bod 2725 rimes,--The name J.'sus, occurs 925 times in the Newi Testament ; the name Christ, 555 timtes. The word Se lh is met with 74 times in the Bible ; the word Eternity but once. Trhe double asser tion Verily Verily, is to be found '25 times in John's Gospel, atnd no where else. There are 314 interogationis (?) of Job. The phrase God said, occurs 10 times in the 1st chapter of Genesis. The na mes Jesus and Christ are neither of them in the 3d Epistle of John. 'rThe word fore ordained is mentiotied hot once in the 1st Peter i. 20. The word perseverance is mentioned but once in the Bible. Eph. vi 18. The word A ttonement is mentioned' but once in the New Testament The word Elect ion is nientioned only 5 timtes in the Scriptures. .There is no mentiont made in the Scriptures of Adam's fall, O' * tiginal sin, nor -t he.- Covenant of Grace The words Eternal Life are tunt men tioned from the first of Genesis rothe las chapter of Malachi-. The words Erer/as ting life are mentioned but once in the Old Testament, Dan. xii. 2. The wor Predestination is net mentioned int the Bible.- -The words Predestinate and Pre, destinated. are each found but twice from the first oftenesis to the end of Revela tions. The phrase, The JDay of Ju ge meat does not occur in theold Testament." *Singtdar Phenomenon.-AI1 at once, on. * Wednesday afternoon last, a well on the premises of Mr. Jacob Stevens, int Lyme, Ia this county, commented overlioning and still continues with utindiminsished force. It is estimated that the discharge is at least sixty hogsheads per minute!. The water is cold and very clear. .We leamr that the well hashbeendog and used for many years. To - enable our readers tojidge something of the projectile foceoof the water, it is said. that good sizedin stones the nell are quickly ejected. The redundancy of wvater, overflowing the adjoining land, is doing much damage to the crops in the vincinity. -Norealk 0. Lx positor, July 3. When adversity assails you don't grow cross. -It prevents not onl all sym pa y for your misfortune, -but also all offer- of assistance.. -People of benevolent feelings are repulsed by yotursnappishness. They are obliged to stand afar off', least you-bite --.them. Trake the matter coolly, and like. a Christian. and then God will help yotu -and your fellow men also. .Great Longesity.-Died on the Key, a few days...smce, a free negro woman named,.TiiiaLejsiu, who had arrived at at the astonishipg age of 117 years and she'has resided.on,dhis,coast for the last thirty years and w4:assaerly. a slave in ome of' he British. W.ilands. - Her fa enites r-emainsed unimpaiet the day of It Seems analempt is to be madeto. produce a geographical divison of parties -a cob:est between the free States and the Southern and Western Slaveholding States. Have the merchants and manu factores counted the probable cost of such a conflict? If they have not, they should do so at once. The West and South can get along uwch better without the East and North, than the East and North can without the West and South. Let those who seem so willing to wage war upon our interests, institutions, and rights, re collect that we have iron, coal, hemp, cot ton, and produce, of every description all the elements ofcommerce and manu faciures ; that the salubrity of our climate and superior fertility of our soil will very soon give us the balance of power-ay, the control of the Union; and we may be just enough to retaliate for the wrongs inflic ted upon us. Eastern and Northern men abould examine the map of the United States, and survey the vast country for vast country for which the Mississippi and its tributaries are the channels of trade. Whenever it may become necessary, our importions and exportations can be made without the aid ofNorthern merchants or Northern shipping. But enoogh of this. We feel confident that our Northern and Eastern brethren are too patriotic to assail our interests, and too. wise to forfeit our good will. Every acquisition to the West ot South increases the commerce and car rying trade of the East and North, and opens new markets for their manufac tures. This is the ligament which now holds.. and will continue to hold, us togeth er. This is well understood, and we ex pect. in a short time, to see the people of the free States battling as manfully as those of the slaveholding States for the annexation of Texas to the Uuion.-Mis souri Reporter. The profuse use of nick-names and oth er disparging appellatives with regard to public men is a remarkable trait in our political literature. We certainly have greatly improved in the phraseology of Journalism within a very recent period. We can scarcely oper a sheet that we -do not find these beauties of taste in almost every line. But party imagination up pears to achieve higher conquests even than a dexterous.play on proper names. The most ludicrous combinations-the oddest compounds sparkle, like gema of fancy. over the whole of our political lite rature. It is a peculiar species of origin alhy, but certainly the American mind has shoi n a high degree of inventive tal ent in this departament of compositin-a singular aptitude in the frabrication of phrases tending to th-row odium on politi cal opponents. Now if these instances of preverted taste and unmamiered contro versy derogate somewhat froin social de coruin, they proclaim at least this fact, that the parties employing these beauties of phraseohlgy are aware of the truth of the maxim, that, in a democracy, words are things.-Charleston Patriot. The Sedition La.-The Vermont Ga zette of the 9;h instant says: "Forty-four years ago this day. our honored grandfairier, Anthony Haswell, editor of the Vermont Gazette, was lib- a ted from j;iil. after having heen confrned for two months; and p . :ng $262 33 fine and costs, under ihe sediition law. This fine has been refunded. with interest, at the late "-ssion of Congress, to the heirs of said Haswell." Frauds in Gambling.-Amon; a num her of ot hers we were presenat, by itvitation at thc rooma of Mir. .J. I1. Green, the refor med Gambler. on Mlonday afternoon, when Mr. G. mamde an expositioni to the fratnds commaonly paractised by regularly initiated gambhlers, tnot only aupon mere novoices, bait even upon practised playersa, w~hen the latter pilay "uponm the saquare," as it is term udl, that is a fair gatme. Six packs of cards the hac-ks oreach varying ini pattern, one being pure white, were suiccessively ex hibitead anda the private marks so clearly cxplaied that, in a very fewv minutes, every one piresent was enabled to tell each suit or nuamber of thme card by the back. In the pancks with colored backs these marks consisted aof somie peculiar formatiotn of the flowers, stripes or stairs, while, in the white in which 'he fractu ws much more difib-tult (f detection,. the mark was known by the direction in n' hich the grain of the pasper ran. Esnough wras proven to satisfy all present that, int the mnanufacturitng of cards general, advantages are given to the pro fessiotnal gambihlers which rendaer gaming. instead of a science involving juidgemnent anal skill,. where the chances are eqnal, a perfect swinidling trnsaction. Of this any one must feel assured who wuill call and witness such an expoisition of the facts hy Mr. Gr-etn as wvas given, before the persons assembaled on Monidayt and we are authorized to say that Mr. G3. will take pleasure itt receiving the visite of all who may desire to see and be convinced. Thbere is, perhaps, rno more ruinotta vie than that of gamblitng, even whean the op. erators are tmen piossessed of too much hon esty to take any undtue advanttage; but when to this knownfact is adldedl eviudene most conclusive, of the perfect system of swinling iI becomes in the hantds of pro fessed gam-blers, the whole commity are interested in the exposition of its glaring deformity and in its speedy ex~terminatioan. Atd we trust that the effort making b~y Mr. G. in the first will so awaken the people to 1,be urgent necesity of the Last, that meas ures will imtmediately be takea to bring abouit that issue-:Ball. Amer. A Newo and Useful Invention.-Mr. R. Fitzgerald, an ingenuious mechanic of this city, has invented a new Sash Fastener, which comtbitnes mny essential- improve metnts, and it is said by all who have seen it, to be the best in use. It is a circular box about the size of half a dollar, to be scewed on the right hand of the frame, about the top of the bottom sash. It works with, a spiral screw, and by turning it dowa,. ihosash will be held at any desired place. ad turning it the contrary way will release it. Of couirse, when the win dow is down .the Fastening will hold it securely, and so as te prevent it fromi sha king or rattling. It can be put oan in: two minutes.

Climate for Consumptives.-It is a nat ier of much interest in this countryi where consuMption is a prevalent disease, to ds certain the climate most favorable to persons afflicted with pulmonary affections. Some parts of Florida are said to be unrivalled for the equable temperature of the atmosphere and for that mild and genial climate most conducive to the restoration of health incipiant stages of consumption, and best adapted to the prolongation of life where the lungs have received incurable injuries. Dr. Wilson, a highly respectable physi clan of Jackson. Miss., who is himself con sumptive. and has visited Cuba, Jamaica, and other West India Islands. and various parts of South A merica, gives it as his own opinion that the Island of Curacoa is the best place for persons in his condition. It is in 12 degrees north latitude and 66 de grees west longitude, lying in the course of the trade winds, which vary from N. E. to S. E., from which points the breeze is always soft and refreshing. He arrived there on the 1st of February and remained until the 6th of April, during which time ite thermometer stood at its lowest point 79 degrees, and at its highest 83, the usual change in twenty four hours not exceeding three degrees, a change not felt by the most delicate constitution, In Cuba, par ticularly. the Doctor's health rapidly de clined the climate being exeessively varia ble; but the mild and uniform temperature of Curacoa entirely restored him. Going through the Motions.-There was a fellow who unfortunately for himself and family; from being a pretty good husband took to drinking, and soon became an idle and trifling vagabond. Coming home one night after having, as usual been on a de bauch, he begun to call lusily-"Wife! wife! I say give me some supper! Iaiy give me some supper!" The pooor wife who, while she could do so, provided food for the family by her own toil, informed him with tears in her eyes. that there was nothing to get a supper out of. "What," said he, "hav'nt you a piece of cold meat "No." "Give me a ernst of bread, then He was told- there was none. "What! have you nothing-VoTHING ?" "Nothing at till," replied the poor wife, rnot even a crumb !" After a pause--Very well, very well ! Give me a clean plate, knife and fork. By Jupiter! l'llgo through the motions any hot if I starve afterwards. There is more reality than romance in the subjoined extract from a capital little story in a late number ofthe Knickerbock er: "It is surptising howa waoman will stick in her betrothed 'against the field.' If I knew that her lover had scraped his moth er to death % ith an oystershell, I should only make her a foe for life by the really friendly act of giving the information. A woman in such a case, will doubt the tes timony of a whore regiment under oath, and the evidence of her own senses into the bargain. Besides, if you could by some miracle, convince her, you would ae complish nothing, for she forgives even more obstinarely than Ie disbeliee,- and unless you can actnally produces before her eys a previous living wife and five children, (Ml the bona fide property of her sui-tor,) you had much better let her alone, 1irtues of Twelve Hundred a Year. The death of the KinE (William IV) was a grand blow to the "Conservative cause" -that is to say it crushed all the rising hopes oh the numerous statesmen who be lieve the country mrust be eaved if they receive twelve hundred a year. It is a peculiar class, that ?1200 per annum, paiti quarterly, is their idea ohf political science and human tnature. To receive ?1200 per annum is government ; to try to receive ?1200 per annum is opposition; to wish to receive .al209 per annum is ambition. If a man wants to get into Pairliament, and want to get ?1200 per annum they look upon him as a daft as a benighted being. T1hey stare in each other'sface, and ask "What can -- want to get into Parliament for?" They bave no conceplion ihat public reputation is a nmotive power, and with many the great est.- Conuings by. A curious instance of the intelligence of a dog is relatedl. The animal belonged to a celebrated chemist, who tried upon it the ehethc of a certain poison, and upon the next day admnitstered a counter-poison, which had the effect of preservi-ng the poor creature''s life. The next day an other dose was offered hitm; btut nerei! said he, he would niot touch it. Different sorts of poisonous drugs were presented to himn, but he resolutely refused all. Bread was offered, but he wotuld not touch it ; meat, but he turned from it ; water, but he would not drink. To re-asswre him,. his master offered him bread and meat of which he himselfaue in the dog's presence; and of that the sagacious amimal, hesitated not to partake. He was taken to a foun tain, but he would drink nowhere hut from the spot where the wvater gushed free and fresh. This contiaued for several days, until. the master, touched? by the extraor dinary intelligence of the poor creature, re solved to make no more attempts upon him with his poleont,. The dog is now very gay and very happy, but will eat of nothing that he does not first see his master toneh, nor will he drink except from the purest s pot of the founnain.-Ed. Reg. Battle between an Robin and Squirrel. A few days since, says the Springfield Republican, a red squirrel was seen on a maple tree standing by the house of Mr. Seth Smith, in West Sring~eld,, he had been there but a few mninutes biefore war wvas declared against him by an old robin, who seemed to claim the right of~ posses sion. As the battle waxed hotter and hot ter, the squirrel rtun down the tree and un dertook to make his eseape along a range of maples by the way-side; but fitnding the bird in hot pursuit, he would turn oe casionally and put himself on the defen sive by showing his ivory to the enraged bird. ~ Hie then ran up and down several trees, with the enemy at his heels, some times stopping to strike with his paw, and then resumipg his retreat. At last he ran upon a shted; and found safety in on aper-. tore tbuongh: the boards. As the robin was not accustomed to such hiding places,. she ..ttd ant roatoa-ntring thi cnest2 rhich lasted but "a short time, Ahe most >itiful cries were heard from the poor quirrel, who sometimes was obliged to ransport the robin upon his back, as her alons were finally planted there while ;he was brandishing her break about his yes and ears evidently to the infliction of 2o small degree of laceration and pain. Bar to Marriage.-The government of be principality of Wadlek, in Germany. iave given public notice, that no license to marry will hereafter be granted to any individual who is addicted to drunkenness )r, if he has been so, he must exhibit full proofs that he is no longer a slave to this vice. The same government have also directed that in every report made by the cclesiastical, municipal, and police su horities, upon petition for license to marry the report shall distinctly state whether !ither of the pardes desirous of entering in to matrimonial connexion,is given to in emperance or otherwise. floarseness.-One dram of freshly icarped horse-radish root, to be infused with fou ounces of water, in a close ves iel, for two hours. and made into a syrup, with double its weight itn vinegar, is an pproved remedy for boarseness-a tea ipoonful hasoften proved effectuah a few ea-spoonfuls, it is said, have never been known to fail in removing hoarseness. A good book and a good woman are ex elleut things to those who know how to ustly appreciate their value; but there are many who judge both only by their cover ng. Let no man ever expect to prosper in this life, or gain the respect and estuem of athers, without an undeviating course of integrity and virtue. Those who pretend to know more that Dthers, are sometimes more ignorant than those who pretend to know nothing. It is a mistake to suppose that tig heads lways contain the most intelligence. Some of them are like large turnips, rather corkv. Old sinners serve the devil for pay; but ursers and swearers are volunteers, who get nothing for their pains. Some men get on in the world on the iame principle that a chimney-sweep pass es uninterruptedly through a crowd. Arrogance can neither supply the want f talents, nor adorn them when possess ed. It has been truly said, that there is but Doe way to refbrm. men, and that is to rendet them happier.

Jufy 17 7t 25 Allum Spring Pills, for the Cure of )yspepsia, Scrofulus and Liver Diseases. T HESE PILLS are prepared by Dre S. R. Campbell, from the water of the highly celebrated Mineral Springs in Rockbridge county Virginia, called the Alum Springs. These Pills, like the water from which they are prepared, are a diuretic, promot ing the secretion of urine and an alterative, increasing the secretions of the glandular system generally, and particularly or the liver. They act gently, but effectually upon the bowels, alter two or tbree days' use of them, producing copious dark, bil lious evacuation. They also effect a determiiation to the surface, increasing the perspiration ; there fore, they are a great purifier of the blood, and equaliser of the circulation. Each pill is equal to a common glass of the wa ter. They should be taken before each meal, and from six to ten or twelve should be taken in the course of each day, for a fortnight, and then omit them for the same periods For the cure of the above diseas es, perseverance in the use of these Pills, is all important; and if t hey are persever i ingly used, every alternate fortnight, a cure may more certainly he expe:ted, than un der any other 'reatment heretofore disco vered, except from the use of the water, from which they are prepared, eiher by an attendance at the Springs or otherwise. They very speedily cure diarrhoeas, at tended with acidity of the stomach, and are n very useful remedy for the summer bowel complaint in children. as also- for expelling worms fron children. From one to four should be given in three equal por lions each day. to a child under six years, accnrding to age. When given to children, they should be powdered anti mixed with syrup. These Pills are easily taken, hav ing no nauseous taste, are perfectly safe in all cases, where active fever does not exist, and do not sicken persona while using them. S. R. CAMPBELL. For sale by J.
