It is recorded of John Jay, that ha v. ing injured his health, by too close con. tinement 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 tha* without a day's neglect of business or study; nnd - ' without the expense of a medical bill*? One fact is worth a thousand theories. ANOTHER BANK KOH1IKRY. A young man who was a clerk in the ] Hcrkiux-r County Rank, of N. York, 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 was pursued on Monday arid in two or j three day's was overtaken, and the money j recovered except the travelling expenses i of the rogue and two associates. A Mr. Geo. K. Griffin has taken out a patent for an invention to raft cotton bales like wooden logs down rivers in the driest season. He envelops the hales in 1 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 years. The cost and risque of transport, ing cotton in this way are said to be very trifling. A most hokrid ml'rdkr was lately committed in a hou*e in Droadivay, Now York, by a man immod Colt. A printer named Samuel Adams left his office on the 111h. ^Jept. on business and never returned. His liahits were regular, and his character excellent. On the day on which he lelt fhe office, the occupants of rooms adjoining Colt's hoard ; vhufflmg in his rooin, and then some one fall;! after winch there was perfect silence. After ??tne time they knocked at the door but r?. ceived no answer. One of them looked J through the key hole and saw Colt washing ! the floor, and some time afterwards he was eeit through the key hole scraping the handle of a hatchet with a pie~e of broken window glass. The next d tv a box large enough to contain the body of a tn in was sent down from his room and suffered to remain some time in a pu die parage, till a cartnan carne for it. and carried it off to a vessel at some wharf ^ of the city. It was directed to some one at St. !,ouiH, via. N. Orleans. All this, however * $ excited no suspicion at the time, in a place like N. York, where scarcely any one pays j attention to the movements of those who are | strangers to him. But as soon as the adver. tisenicnt announcing the unaccounlabie absence of Adams from home appeared, suspicion arose in the minds of those who had heard the noise in Coil's room, and they had him arrested. The carman who carried off the box was hunted up, and lie showed the vessel to which the 1>o.\ was carried. The box having 'been taken out of the hold and opened, mas foortd to cut a in the mangled body of Adams, packed in salt. No motive has been suspected for the murder except that Colt owed Adams a tew hundred dollars, the payment of which he might escape by murdering the creditor. A meeting of the Whigs of Lexington, 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. Three abolitionists passer! over a few months since, from IHinios nto Missouri, ? i .1, . i . i _ i i fliiu auempieu 10 persuade several slaves to runaway and accompany them over the slate line, promising the slaves a safe passage to Canada, where they might be free the remainder of their <days, without molestation. The slaves ipretending to accept the offer engaged to meet the abolitionists by night at a designated place, then informed their masters ot what had occurred. The masters, with the concurrence of the negroes, con. ceaied themselves, along with other witnesses and a deputation from the sheriff, .so near the place of meeting as to be able to hear what might pass between the no groes 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 penitentiary fit hard labor. One of them ] i? a preacher, we think either of the h Congregational order, or of the New & School secession from the Presbyterian Church. In a letter published by him soon after his apprehension, he professed to consider himself imprisoned for the Gospel's sake, and compared his case to J that of Paul when imprisoned at Rome. ^ Would not a lunatic asylum he a fitter ^ residence than a penitentiary for such a person? p President Tyler for one term.

L In reply to some inquiries by a political th meeting held in Charleston some time tc last year, among several reasons which he assigned for supporting General Hnrrison as a candidate for the Presidency, one was, that the General had come out T for confining the service of a President to a single term. Will his desire to maintain a character for consistency now . IP1 make him adhere to a principle which he , did not suppose at the time lie advocated jej it, would ever lie in his own way ? We ' tt shall see. t at ^ ijr President 1 ylkk's Tkbuivers itions. i in ?Mr. Botts states, in a note to his speech j P( on the second bank hill after it was re- ! I) turned to the House, that the President j If with his own hand prepared the following |SJ amendment to the bill to be offered to the House. ^ w " And provided, further, And it is to he j expressly understood that before auy such , agency shall he authorized to deal or trade, as is in this and the ninth section r< of the bill provided, the assent of the State tr in which any such agency is established P' shall be first had and obtained hv an ex- ,r press resolution of the Legislature, or in >r some other form of usual legislative pro- p ceeding." a Before the member to whom this u L amendment had been entrusted, was in CJ his place w ith it, the bill was about to be j reported from Committee of the Whole and was on the eve of its final passage. It was therefore deemed an unsuitable ti time for offering the amendment; and be- si fore it was determined whether or not it sl would bo advisable to offer it in the Sen- r.' ate, the President sent for the member e into whose hands he had put it, and told him he had changed his mind. n Mr. Bolts also says, in the same note, a, that in the first week of the extra session, ti the President said to a g jtleman of the ( u highest respectability, while speaking of his standing in Virginia: ''Let them , CT h; give me an opportunity to exercise the ve- . to jiower, and I will have the whole state t| with me." a All this is precisely in character with Ij the developments made hy the ex-mem. c hers of the President's cabinet. a The following is the letter of Mr. Botts P to which the President's veto of the second ? bank hill is ascribed, after he had himself i requested the bill to be drawn up, and then read and approved it after it was se drawn up. tr " August 16. 1341. n< " Dear Sir?President Tyler has finally rf resolved to veto the Bank bill.

Sir?On arriving at Cheraw a day or vo since, I learned that considerable a p. rehension prevailed among judgment editors as to the effect of an Act "to stablish a uniform system of bankruptcy TT 'a J Ct. , _ *1 irougtiout cne unuea aiaies, pas.spu t the last session of Congress, and that i consequence of this apprehension, inny such creditors either had or intend* 1 to direct the sheriffs in the surrounding districts to proceed forthwith to the colsction of their debts, if necessary, by tie of defendants' property. The simulineous attempt forcibly to collect debts itcon existing judgments in nit cases here creditors may choose to entertain nubts as to the ultimate solvency of nbtors, under the belief that by the ope. ilion of the bankrupt law, simp e conact and judgment creditors, will be laced on an equality and share pro rata ? the property of the bankrupt, would, 1 the present state of the money market, roduce great distress in the community, nd convert what was intended as a mcas. re of emanc.pation and relief to the oncst but unfortunate debtor, into a iiusc of ruin, to many, who probably avc it as little in contemplation to avail lemselvesof its provisions, as their cred. ors. To prevent if possible the inflicon of so great an evil on the Districts urrounding Cheraw, [ask permission to tate through your paper, that the hankapt law does not go into operation till the rst of February next; and therefore, ven if the apprehensions of judgment reditors are well founded, there is no eccssity for immediate proceedings gainst their debtors : That it was passed irough the House of Representatives ndcr the influence of the arbitrary and tringent rules adopted bv the majority at ic late session for the regulation of de. ate, with but lit tie discussion, when conidered in reference to the importance of ie subject: That its advocates did not tternpt to defend all its details, hut frank. i admitted that it was imperfect and flefared that their principal object waa at resent merely to lay the foundation of general system of bankruptcy to be erfected by future legislation: That ne of the chief motives for postponing :s operation until the 1st of February ext, was to afford an opportunity to meud it after the meeting ofthe regular >s?ion of Congress : That Congres will leet on the first Monday in December ext, and that the law will probably lie >vised before the time arrives for it to go ito operation. I do not intend to yenture an opinion, 1 this h.xstily written letter, as to the rohahle interpretation that may be pin;d by the Courts on the provisions of the ct in r< I ition to lion on property crea. d by judgments or other existing secutiesshould the law go into operation in s present form, but in order that some uiders may have an opportunity of judg ig for themselves, I request, it tnere is ioin in your paper, that you will publish ie 2d and 5th sections, which are the incipal soctions relating to the subject.
