The Yellow Fever continues to rage in ^vew Orleans. The deaths were about 40 daily at the time of the last accounts. The Ohio river i9 now lower than it has been at any time for more than 20 years, except in 1838. It is forded by carriages near Cincinnati.

It is recorded of John Jay, that having injured his health, by too close confinement and hard study, soon after commencing the practice of law in the city of New York, he took lodgings six miles out of town and rode in and out daily on horseback. The result was a restoration to health ; and that without a day's neglect of business or study; and - - without the expense of a medical bill*? One fact is worth a thousand theories. anot1iks dank ilobllkry. A young man who was a clerk in the j Herkimer County Jhink, ot IS. lork, j lately procured from the cashier the key of the bank on a Saturday evening, and b ?fore he returned it, stole more than $70,000. He pushed off immediately ; but ; wan pursued on Monday and in two or ; ^ three day's was overtaken, and the money I recovered except the travelling expenses l of the rogue and two associates. A Mr. Ceo. K . Griffin has taken out ! a patent for an invention to raft cotton b.ilcs like wooden logs down rivers in the driest season. He envelops the hales in waterproof canvass, throws them into the ! river and attaches them together. Such ; a raft will float in water only 6 or 8 inches deep. The envelops will last a number of vears. The cost nnd risque of transport, ing cotton in this way are said to be very trifling. A most horrid mi'rdkr was lately committed in a hou.ce in Croadwav, Now York, by a man named Colt. A printer named Samuel Adams left !iis office on the llth. ^Jept. on business and never returned. His habits were regular, and his character excellent. On (he day on which he lett the office, i the occupants of rooms adjoining Colt's heard ; shuffling in his room, and then sorwe one fall;! | after winch there was perfect sdence. After j *nne time they knocked at the door but re. j ^ ceived no answer. One of them looked J through the key hole and saw Colt washing 1 the floor, and some time afterwards he was eeti through the key hole *craping the handle 1 oft hatchet with a pie^e of broken window i glass. The next d ty a box large enough to contain the body of a man was sent down from . his room and suffered to remain some time j in a pu die pa>a ige, till a carman came for <t and earned it off to a vessel at some w harf , ^ of the city. It was directed to some one at 8t. Louis, via. N. Orleans. All tins, however 7 1 excited no suspicion at the time, in a place j like N. York, where scarcely any one pays attention to the movements of those who are arrangers to him. But as soon as the adver. 1 .... i iisemcnt announcing me unaccouniauie an. cence of Adams from home appeared, suapi- < cion arose in the mnidsof those who had heard the noise in C?lTs room, and they had him arretted. The carman who carried off the 1 box was huii*e4 up, and he showed the vessel ! t? which fbe "box was carried. The box hav- ' Sng fooem taken out of the hold and opened, J was found to cut a in the mangled body of j Ad.ims, packed in salt. No motive has been { uspectect for the murder except that Colt , owed Adams a tew hundred dollars, the pay. went of which he might escape by murdering ! the creditor. 1 A meeting of the Whigs of Lexington, i Kv.. on the 13th. ult. resolved to meet ' Mr. Clay, en masse, at the county line, -and escort him home. They also resolved to invite him to a splendid barbacue. 1 Three abolitionists passed over a few months since, from Minios into Missouri, and attempted to |>ersiiade several slaves | to runaway and accompany them over the state line, promising the slaves a i safe passage to Canada, where they might be fpee the remainder of their I <days, without molestation. The slaves pretending to accept the offer engaged to meet the abolitionists by night at a designated place, then informed their masters of what had occurred. The masters, with the concurrence of the negroes, con ceaied themselves, along with other witnesses and a deputation from the sheriff, ?o near the place of meeting as to be able hear what might pass between the negroes and theives. Having heard enough to prove the theft, they shewed themselves and apprehended the rogues just as they had entered a ferry boat with the negroes in possession. The fellows were nf course committed for trial, and at a recent session of the court for the county were convicted of negro stealing, and lentenced to 12 years confinement in the letntentinry at hard labor. One of them is a preacher, we think either of the Congregational order, or of the New School secession from the Presbyterian Church. In n letter published by him soon after his apprehension, he professed to consider himself imprisoned for the Gospel's sake, and compared his case to that of Paul when imprisoned at Rome. Would not a lunatic asylum he a fitter residence than a penitentiary for such a person/ President Tyler for one tkrx. Mr. Tyler, in September, 1839, sent the following toast to a Whig dinner at o o Southampton, Va. " By John Tyler.? Pilgrim Presidents and Travelling Cabinets: The fruitful offspring of the second Presidential term.

In reply to some inquiries by a political i meeting held in Charleston some time last year, among several reasons which ocaiirnprl fnr snnnnrtimr General Hnr "v -- rr- o - rison as a candidate for the Presidency, one was, that the General had come out 1 for confining the service of a President to a single term.

(i President Tyler's Tkrdiv er* itioxs. i ?Mr. Botls states, in a note to his speech j on the second hank hill after it was re- J turned to the House, that the President j with his own hand prepared the following amendment to the bill to he offered to the House. " And provided, further, And it is to he expressly understood that nefore auy such agency shall be authorized to deal or trade, as is in this and the ninth section of the bill provided, the assent of the State in which any such agency is established shall be first had and obtained by an express resolution of the Legislature, or in some other form of usual legislative proceeding." Before the member to whom this amendment had been entrusted, was in his place with it, the bill was about to be reported from Committee of the Whole and was on the eve of its final passage. It was therefore deemed an unsuitable time for offering the amendment; and before it was determined whether or not it would be advisable to offer it in the Senate, the President sent for the member into whose hands he had put it, and told him he had changed his mind. Mr. Bolts also says, in the same note, that in the first week of the extra session, , the President said to a gentleman of the highest respectability, while speaking of his standing in Virginia: 4,Let thern o o give me an opportunity to exercise the vein nnwpr. and I will have the whole state with me." All this is precisely in character with the developments made hy the ex.mem. hers of the President's cabinet. The following is the letter of Mr. Botts to which the President's veto of the second hank bill is ascribed, after he had himself i requested the hill to be drawn up, and then read and approved it after it was Jrawn up. " August 16. 1341. " Dear Sir?President Tyler has finally resolved to veto the Bank bill. It will he jent in to day at twelve o'clock.

J. W. BLAKENEY Secretary. September 16, 1841. To the Editor of the Farmers' Gazette. Oct. 2d, 1841. Sir?On arriving at Cheraw a diy or two since, I learned that considerable apprehension prevailed among judgment creditors as to the effect of an Act "to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy throughout the United States," passed at the last session of Congress, and that in consequence of this apprehension, many such creditors either had or intended to direct the sheriffs in the surrounding Districts to proceed forthwith to the collection of their debts, if necessary, by sale of defendants' property. The simultaneous attempt forcibly to collect debts due on existing judgments in nil cases where creditors may choose to entertain doubts as to the ultimate solvency of debtors, under the belief that by the ope. ration of the bankrupt law, simp e contract and judgment creditors, will he placed on an equality and share pro rata in the property of the bankrupt, would, in the present state of the money market, produce great distress in the community, and convert what was intended as a measure of crnanc.pation and relief to the honest but unfortunate debtor, into a cause of ruin, to many, who probably have it as little in contemplation to avail themselves of its provisions, as their creditors. To prevent if possible the infliction of so great an evil on the Districts surrounding Cheraw, [ ask permission to state through your paper, that the bankrupt law does not go into operation till the tirst of February next; and therefore, even if the apprehensions of judgment creditors are well founded, there is no necessity for immediate proceedings against their debtors : That it was passed through the House of Representatives under the influence of the arbitrary and stringent rules adopted by the majority at the late session for the regulation of de. bate, with but little discussion, when con. sidered in reference to the importance of the subject: That its advocates did not attempt to defend all its details, hut frank, ly admitted that it was imperfect and declared that their principal object was at present merely to lay the foundaticn of a general system of bankruptcy to be perfected by future legislation: That one of the chief motives for postponing its operation until the 1st of February jiext, was to aflbrd an opportunity to ameud it after the meeting ofthe regular session of Congress : That Congres will meet on the first Monday in December next, and that the law will probably be revised before the time arrives for it to go into operation. 1 do not intend to venture an opinion, in this hastily written letter, as to the nrnhnhlt* interpretation that may be pla r ? cod by the Courts on the provisions of the Act in r< 1 ition to lien on property crea. ted by judgments or other existing secu. ritiesshould the Jaw go into operation in its present form, but in order that sotpe readers may have an opportunity of judg. ing for themselves, I request, if there is room in your paper, that you will publish the 2d and 5th sections, which are the principal sections relating to tire subject. MARLBOROUGH. The following are the sections of the bankrupt act refered to : Sec. 2. And be it further enacted. That all future?payinents, securities, conveyances, or transfers of property, or ngrceincnts made or given by any bankrupt in contemplation of bankruptcy, and for the purpose of giving any creditor, endorser, surety, or oiher person any prefcrencc or priority over the general cred1 I A- 1 II .1 itors or sucn imnarupi ; anaan ouier payments. securities, conveyances, or trans, fers of proj>erty or agreements made or given by such bankrupt in contemplation of bankruptcy, to any person or persons whatever, not being a bona fide creditor or purchaser for a valuable consideration, without notice, shall be deemed utterly void, and a fraud upon this act ;and the assignee under the bankruptcy shall be entitled to claim, sue, for, recover, and re. ceive the same as part of the assets of the bankruptcy ; and the person making such unlawful preferences and payments shall receive no discharge under the provision of this act; Provided^ That all dealing.* and transactions by and with any bankrupt, bona fide made and entered intr more than two months before the petitior filed against him, or by him, shall not b( invalidated or affected by this act: Pro rided, That the other party to any such dealings or transactions had no notice of < a prior act of bankruptcy, or of the inten. , tion of the bankrupt to take the benefit of < this act. And in case it shall be made to nppear to the court, in the course of the j proceedings in bankruptcy, that the bank.

That nothing in this act contained shall be construed to annul, destroy, or impair any lawful rights of married women or minors, or any liens, mortgages, or other securities on property, real or per. sonal, which may be valid by the laws of the States respectively, and which are not _r ik. inconsistent wirn tne provisions ui mc second and fifth sections of this act.

And be it further anarJed, That all creditors coming in and proving their debts under such bankruptcy, in the man. ner hereinnfter proscribed, the same being bona fide debts, shall be entitled to shnre in the bankrupt's property and effects, pro ! rata, without any priority or preference 1 in whatsoever, except only for debts due by such bankrupt to the United States, ; and for all debts due by him to persons i who, by the laws of the United States, i have a preference, in conscience of hav. | ing o.iid moneys as Ins sureties, which i shall bo first paid out of the assets ; and ; any person who shall have performed any labor as an operative in the service of any bankrupt shall be entitled to receiv the full amount of the wages due to iiun for such labor, not exceeding twenty.five dollars: Provided, That such labor shall have been performed within six months I next before the banktuptcy of his employ er; and all creditors whose debts are not due and payable until a future day, all annuitants, holders of bottomry and respondentia bonds, holders of policies of insurances, sureties, endorsers, bail, or other persons, having uncertain or contingent J demands against such bankrupt, shall i be permitted to come in and prove such ' debts or claims under this act and shall j have a right, when their debts and claims | become nbsolute, to have thcsaine allowed I ' 1 I?M?..? them ; ana sucn annuitants uuu iiuiuui* ; of debts payable in future may have the present value thereof ascertained, under the direction of such court, and allowed thorn accordingly, as debts in presenti ; and no creditor or other person, coming in and proving his debt or other claim, shall be allowed to maintain any suit at law or in equity therefor, but shall be deemed thereby to have waived all right of action and suit against such bankrupt; and all proceedings already commenced, and all unsatisfied judgements already j obtained thereon, shall be deemed to be ' surrendered thereby; and in all cases where there are mutual debts or mutual I credits between tho parties, the balance i only shall be deemed the true debt I or claim between them, and the resi- i . due shall be deemed adjusted by the setoff ; all such proof of debts shall be made before the court decreeing the bankrupt. ? cy, or before sonic commissioners appoin. j ted by the court for that purpose; but such I court shall have full power to set aside and disallow any debt, upon proof that such debt is founded in fraud, imposition, i > illegality, or mistake; and corporations J to whom any debts are due may make { proof thereof by their President, cashier, treasurer, or other officer, who may be | specially appointed for that purpose; j I unH in nnnnintim? commissioners to re.

The deaths that I orjeijr are very few, considering the un- ] common prevalence of the disease. The caqse of unhealthlulness must be more general than the mill ponds throughout the country, to which it was first attribu. ted: though the local influence of a foul pond is no doubt extremely deleterious,? and in connexion with the general cause, renders the universality of disease within its reach alarming.

' The circuit court was in session, nnd on 1 bring the case before the grand jury it ' was discovered that there is no law for the punishment of this offence. "?be thjfce nbolitionists it seems, only attempted to entice the slaves away, and this is not an offence against the criminal law of the State. A law was passed in 1837, prescribing a punishment for publishing, circulation, &c., anything cal. nted to excite slaves to insurrection, (fee., but the crime of enticing away slaves appears not to be provided for. The prisoners, it is stated, continued to boast of the attempt, and assert as they asserted in their letter, published some time ago, that they are in the service of the Lord in stealing and carrying away as many slaves as they can. That into whatever perilsor dangers they may he thrown the Lord will be with thesn and sustain thein, and finally bring them out triumphant.
