Newberry Association. At tlic mooting of this association on Monday last, the following resolutions, introduced by J. IT. <jilw?, after some eloquent discussion, wero unanimously adopted. Resolved, That all moans, consistent with tlio honor of South Carolina and the present and future safety of the institution of slavery, should be used by her to secure the co-oj?eration of her sister Suites of the South in any measure of resistance to Northern aggression, which she may adopt in wisdom and with that prudent forbearance which has hitherto characterized all her acts j in relation to her wrongs. Jicsolued, That the honor of South Car- | olina requires that the State Convention, i which has been called into being by the j people, and clothed with their power, shall ! meet as early as practicable after the close of -the next session of the Legislature, to consider the mode, measure, and time of resistance. Resolved, That if, at the assembling of \ the State Convention, at the time designa i ted in the forgoing resolution, there are no reliable and certain indications that longer delay will secure that co-operation all desire, then the honor and future security of South Carolina demand that she immediately secede from this Union, and " assume among the powers of the earth the separate and e* qua! staction to which the laws of nuture and nature's God entitle her." Resolved, That, from present indications, l.A ? t cs?.tl. n?v ov|/?uaM/ occv^oiuii ui ouuui vy'irniiii if* the only liopo of securing tlio united resistance of tlio Southern States to past aggressions, and will thus l>ecoine the efficient remedy for their past wrongs, and the sure guarantee of their future safety and independence. The following gentlemen were nominated nnd elected delegates to the convention in Charleston : James C. Crosson, A. C. Garlinglon, Robert Moorman, II. Summer, P. C. Caldwell, Dr. W. II. Harrington, Dr. G W. Glenn, John P. Kinard, D. Nance, Gen. J. II. Williams, F. 13. Iliggins, Dr. Peter Moon, Col. B. F. Griffin, Col. James W. Ducket, and Micajah Harris. From Mexico.?A well-informed Ameri March there sliouM ha&becn jZS.^'SQQ cash in the treasury, Rome how 01* instead of tliat, a deficiency of $2,G00,00(J turned up. The same writer says, that tlie present Minister of Finance of Mexico, is a dunce, l^burro is tlie expressive term used,] and does not know what he is about. At present lie has a grand project in his head to induce Congress to give back to the Vera Cruz Rail Road Company the 0 2-8 per cent, duties invested in the Company, and in order to gain this object, the members ot Congress will be tempted with the plan of a rail road to Acapulco. The present road leading out of Vera Cruz, only two miles long, hits already swauowed some millions or dollars, say all tlie 0 2-8 per cent, duties on imports for the last eight or ten years. A brother of the Minister holds the right of a rail way as far as Medellan. The people of Vera Cruz, according to another letter in our liaudR, are decidedly hostile to the Tehauntopec road, so much so, that they were about to protest against it at the capital. It was thought, however, their protest would be of no avail. The same correspondent mentions the failure, at i)ie city of Mexico, of the great bouse of Drusina <fc Co., and says that their credits were offered at Vera Cruz at from 40 to 10. The inhabitants of Tamnicn antv?nr tr? rr> ------- - ?I II ? " ? gret the departure of Gen. Li Vega, who lmd started for Yucatan. The Ayuutamiento paid him great honors previous to his departure. A company has been formed at the city of Mexico to work the sulphur mines of Popocatepetl. The small-pox was said to Ixj raging, to nn alarming extent, in the cities of Aguar Calientes and Moreli. We see in El Monitor, an account to the cffect that in Chihuahua there had been a union effected between the Jesuits and Puros, with the object of carrying on hostilities against the Government. The exclusive privilege lias been granted to Senores, Mariano. Avllon and Vincont? Rosas to navigate the lakes and canals of tlie valley of Mexico, for ten years, with steam boats. Some of the Mexican papers are advocating the necessity of closing such of the convents as have not the full number of inmates, and applying the funds raised to public instruction and to objects of beneticeuce and public utility. Spartanburg, April 10. We have had for some fortnight past a great deal of rain. Several severe thunder storms have passed our neighborhood. On Saturday night last, tlio section of country some ten miles north east of our town whs ; visited by one of the most terrific storms of wind and rain, accompanied with thunder mid lightning, of which we havo any experience in this latitude. Timbers of almost every size were swept down ; orchards were literally rooted up; houses of every dimension and use were torn to pieces; the scene was one of imminent danger and dismay, wliHe the footsteps of this dread minister of angry nature were marked with desolation ana ruin. This is indeed quito extraordinary. so early in the season.?Spartan. V4f The Bouhty Land Grants.?It is officWljr stated that up to this time, about one I Mradred thousand applications have been reOliyed for the benefit of this law ; and every Ottv's mail adds froVn five hundred to a thousand to their number. The office is now i? safyig between a thousand and twelve hunr drfcd a week, and it will require more than X eij|h(een months before tlie claims i?4j^on mV- hand can be dwpoeed of, or maturedinto warrants. All persons interested in this law, or desiring .information in regard to it, are requested .to address, their communications directly to the Commissioner of Perniom.

Editors:?Medical men are very often a^ked if one vaccination is suflicient to protect the system through life from Small | Pox?or lioxv often it is necessary to have the operation performed. The late Dr. Fisli1 er, of Boston, for a long time gave attention to this subject, and in January last published, with others, the following propositions, which are supported by numerous statistical facts, and are fully relied upon by the profession : "That one single and perfect vaccination does not, for all the time in all eases, deprive tho system of its susceptibility of variolous disease. That one or more rc- vaccination do ; and that, consequently, a physician should recommend re-vaccination, when questioned as to its necessity. i ne system is protected from variolous contagion when it is no longer susceptible of vaccine influence, :is tested by re-vaccination." Tliat vaccination will not fully prevent people taking the small po.\, is nfact beyond all dispute, for I was vaccinated, and the pox, I am told, was good?excellent in every respect; yet, when twenty years of age, I was smitten with small pox, and covered from head to foot with the 44 boils of that loathsome disease." My case was j>ecnliar?I had no knowledge of coming in contact with any person who was infected, and was not in any house where the disease had l>een. I well remember the evening when I f?*lt the first symptoms; it was in 1834, on Christmas Eve, and I lost a fine social feast by it. In 110 case, however, does the small pox, af feet those who arc vaccinated as severely as those who are not; I have not a mark on my face, nor was my rickncss over considered dangerous to myself, and I was up and at my business in four weeks from tho time I took it. Some would lead us to l>elicve that, after a certain time after vaccination, the whole of its ertecta disappear from the human system, and tho individual who had undergone tho process, is as liable to the dangers of small pox, as those who have not been vaccinated. This is not true. Of five persons who were smitten with small pox, by contact with mo in some way, one died who had not been vaccinated, and the other four (ono as old as myself) were but n^P^ly gffi^^^m^^^trison to what I was. it w<xs by pmcilc.:! not -fanning, Uhnt Jctiner d&N>irere<? irftlie Av/ie ndxl tc4tlni&j^ai0v6i^ hfrs been * worfderefill blessing to our race. 'To*v??!>e*fd iny grandfather say that, in his young daysjyott could scarcely see a European who was not terribly disfigured with the small pox. ' It was the terror of the beautiful and gay.? The wonder now is, to see people distigilred with this disease. I have heard an opinion expressed that vaccination was of little benefit to a child before it was weaned. I do not believe this; the four persons of whom I have spoken, wer? nil vn<v?innf?/l Vior'-im liim' ? V!"-J "y1-months old. Many recommend ro vaccination as tlie only sure means to prevent variloid, or tlio mild t)*pe of small pox. 1 bolieve that it should l>e practiced ; but, while I believe this, I also think that it" every perfcon born was vaccinated in early life, the sniall pox would soon lie unknown. li. New York, 1850. Who Killed Tecumscii.? At a recent meeting of the New York Historical Society, as we learn from the N. York Commercial Advertiser Major Richardson, formerly an officer in the "British Army, rfad a paper on the "incidents of the war of 1812, embracing particulars connected with the death of Tecnmsoh. The Commercial Advertiser savs: ii.: t> i :? - - iiirijin iv. ii.tviiijr i?ecn an eye witness of most of the matter described, nnd a personal, friend of the great warrior, his narrative was of more than ordinnry interest, and commanded almost breathless attention throughout. lie related many instances of generosity and chivalrous gallantry on the part of tlic Indian chief, which would havn done no discredit to tho knight of feudal times. Tn relation to the manner of his death. Major It. is of opinion that he foil by the hand of Col. Johnson. Such, he says was tho universal understanding on tho night of the battle, when all the circumstances were fresh in the minds of the witnesses, nnd ho sees no reason to dispute the fact nt this late day. The question 'Who killed Tecum seh ?' may therefore bo considered settled." Major Richardson is known to the reading public as the author of " Wncousta," "Ecarte, and other novels. m Cost of Going to the WorltVs F<iir.? j The New York Tribuno is giving some cal- | culations as to the experise attending a visit to the World's Fair.
