We have received a circular fro^F Capt.
W. R. llenry, of. Sato Antonio* from which
we make the following extracts :
To tko People of Texat.
i Geo. William Walker, the man of destiny,
announces to yon the fact that he is now
prepared to return to Central America to establish
himself as the rightful President of
that Republic, which position he was compelled
to vacate for awhile, through the
combination of the surrounding States?the
influence of gold, * * * the
treachery of the notorious Spencer, the imiproper
and illegal interferences of the presumptuous
English. The conduct of Geuenral
Walker in the last trying campaign
against such powerful influences exhibits to
the world most cloarly his capacity to command
and his honesty of purpose. lie returns
to Central America for pure and pa
trioiic motives?such as the extension of t!i?
area of freedom over the superstitious and
ignorant people of Central America And the
promulgation of the institutions and sontiraents
of the Southern portion of the United
States. lie appeals to the well-known bravery
and enthusiasm of Texas to suport him.
For this purpose a regiment of Hangers, after
their former rules and customs, will l>e
organised forthwith, to concentrate at Galveston.
To those who desire to participate
in tbi9 glorious struggle it is necessary to
buckle on the war armor without delay.?
The movement will be made from Gaives ton,
on the first day of October next.
Fkllow-oitizens ok Bkxar County :?
In announcing to you my determination tn
join Gen. Walker (for a few months only)
in his return to Nicaragua, I am confident
that I will meet with the disappointment ot
a small portion of iny political friends, who
so generously assisted to elevate tne to the
respectable and responsible position I now
hold among vou ; but I indulge in the hope
that I will find some excuse at your hands,
when you exatnino into the honesty of my
purpose, and the gi eat and praiseworthy cause
which I go to defend ; and also that I have
appointed good and well-known deputies to
cxecuto the duties of the olfice of the sheriffalty
of the county.
After having come to this conclusion, it
wonld give mo great satisfaction to be accompanied
by a portion of iny old comrades
011 the frontier of Texas and in ike Mexican
and Florida wars. Thoso who nro willing
to joiu in with me in this noblo canso of
Qressior, I would say to tlicin march
iwith to thu city of Galveston, whero I
will inoct thein ou the 1st of October.

San Antonio, Sept. 22, 1837.
Pillow ti. Scott.
Gen. l'illow has replied to the card pubVisWed
by Gen. Scott, denying the charge
that he caused $10,000 to be paid to Santa
Anna during the Mexican war, as a peace
ibribo. Gen. Pillow reiterates his charge that
$10,000 was paid through Mr. Trist to influence
the negotiations for peace, and that a
further -larger -n?.aa was proposed by Gen.
Scott to bo expended in aid of the same object.
Gen. Pillow now quotes from state
tnents made by Gen. Quitman and Gen.
Shields, to sustain his charge. Gen. Shields,
whose statement corresponds with Gen. Quitman's,
says that while the army was at PileIda,
Gen. Scott invited him and several other
officers to his headquarters, and, after some
talk ahout future operations. Gen. Scott read
a letter from Mr. Trist to himself, in which
it was suggested that the Mexican authorities
were destitute of means, and that the
writer, Mr. Trist, had a good reason to believe
that a judicious application of money
would enable us to obtain a peace, and requesting
Gen. Scott to use bis etlbrU to raise'
a million or a million and a half of dollars
for that purpose. Gen. Scott having read
this letter, declaied himself in favor of the
project, as the only means of procuring a
speedy and satisfactory peace, lie stated
that he had means of raising money, and
that, under the circumstances, the course
was justifiable in point of principle and expediency.
Lie also stated that he had al
ready applied a small sum, say ten or twenty
thonsand dollars, and that ho regarded it
as bread thrown on the waters.
Now the question is?to whom was the
money "applied?'' Certainly, Gen. Scott's
language would indicate that it was not paid
to a mere spy, but to somebody who could
influence the action of the Mexican government.
Did Gen. Scott hope to buy a pence,
instead of conouerinar one ??that i* tt>?

Heartrending Affair.
At this late time we stop the prose to announce
an occurrence, most painful in character.
Our particulars are from James Jefferys,
Esq., magistrate, and Mr. Wm. M.
Kerr, the acting officer. In a fit of anger,
one John Fee, living on Bulloch'? Oreek, in
York District, a few days since, shot his
inaro, some calllo and hogs, and on Sunday,
the 18th instant, he set fire to his dwelling,
which was locked, and the key afterwards
found on his person, in which bis three
motherless children, aged from five to fourteen
years, nro supposed to have perished.
It seems a Peace Warrant had been issued
against him on complaint of a neighbor;
that when an officer weut to arrest him he
was seen to be fortified (as it were) in one of
his barns, urmed with a gun, and swearing
to shoot any who would approach him.?
There were sixty or seventy persons leaving
the Iiou.se wbcu Mr. Kerr arrived, who he
summoned to accompany him to the ham,
hut the cry was, "he will shoot somebody."
So, they refused, with the exception of John
Ilartneai and brother ; wbeu they got to the
ham stratagem had to be resorted to, which
was effectual in securing him.
The prisoner stated that the children were
at a certain house, which was known to l>e
incorrect. He (hen said ho had Last seen

Miasm and MIlama.?Miasm and malaria
are the great death agents throughout
the Inrgeet portion of the habitable globe.
Miasm is malaria, but malaria is no mi
asm.
Miasm is an emanation from decaying veg
nation. Miliaria is bad air, whatever tuay
be its source. All impure air is malaria.
M iasiu is so raritieu by a son of ninety
degrees, that it rises rapidly above us, and
1 is innocuous. The cool of the morning and
evening of summer tinio condenses it, and
causes it to fall to the surface of the earth,
where it is breathed by man, and is the
fruitful cause of pestilence, plague and epidemic
fevers. Thus, the higher persons
sleep above the surface of the earth, the
healthier is tho atmosphere.
While, as a general rule, it is belter to
sleep in apartments having a window and
! the fire place open in all seasons, yet where
miasm abounds, evidencing its presence l?y
chills and fever, fever and ague, diarrhoeas,
and the like, it is bettor to sleep with closed
windows than to liavo them open, because
men are known to fatten iu jails and small
prison cells, while the breathing a malaria a
single night lias originated diseases, which,
i from the violence of theii action, are scarcely
distinguishable from the effects of swallowing
corrosive poison, as witnesses tho National
Hotel di-case.
1.1 ut although the air inside of a house is
supplied from the outside, yet, if the windows
and outside doors are closed, it is supplied
in such small quantities, through the crevi
ces, tlint it is at once heated by tho indoor
air, and carried to tho ceiling, where it is
above reach. The difference between the
thermometor in our hall and the one out
doors, about five o'clock of a summer's morning,
is ten degrees. Ilence, dining the prevalence
of miasm, at least in August and
September, it is better to close the chamber
i windows, but let an inner door and ilie fireplace
be kept open.

" Tl?o present panic, we understand, is
having a very injurious effect on the resident*
of the interior, and especially those of East
Mississippi, where South Carolina and Geor
i gia liank Hills are the only funds on which
they depend for carrying on their business
operations. These bills the Mobile and Ohio
liniJroad Company refuse to take in payment
i for freight or passage ; the merchants and
traders refuse them in payment for goods or
debts?they cannot be passed in Mobile for
dry provisions or anything else. Thus, the
people generally, having no other kind of
money, and being unable to sell their produce
now on haud, are indeed in a most
crippled cond lion. Under these circumstan

at wliat rate it would be safe to take

! Tobacco von Wounds.? In the case of
i a snake hile nothing is so frequently applied
I as tobacco leaf or sweet oil. I remember
; the circumstance of a man who had been to

turning homo stopped to drink at a small
! spring, a few rods off the main road, and
j upon rising was bitten in lho leg by an old
( rattlesnake. The man's leg soon swelled
enormously, ami ilio pain increased; but
upon the application of some oil, which he
procured at a cabin a mile or two on the
! road, and then a lot of " cut and dry " (the
1 most trashy tobacco.) well damped and
bound round the swelling, all danger passed
| and his leg was reduced to its natural size
, by the time he reached home late in the
night. Indeed, the domestic medicine chest 1

to calt to mind how many of the

composing the Lord's I'rayor, 48 are of one
syllable. Of the 17 words composing tin

; most expressive idea of the creative power
of Jehovah is expressed entirely of monosyllables
: " And God said, let there be light,

in 16 words, all but one of which are
