Ral. Slar. From a paper very recently read re. cently read before the Statistical Society, of the number and length of railways in Great Britain and Ireland, it appears there are seventy-one lines, forming a total length of 2,191 miles. Of these fifty-three are open, eighteen partiailv, and ten are {not yet opened. The entire quantity of champagne fit for bottling, grown in 1840, according to the local journals, does not amount to fnore than 21,160,000 litres, (about A,600,000 English gallons) although ten timus this quantity is sold in Fra nce or sent abroad as genuine champagne ! the Vine and Wine making in North ' Carolina. Mr. Weller of Halifax, North Carolina, says that he has tried nearly one hundred kinds of grapes, and that his success has "fully convincec him that the busine?s is very profitable," if thegrapes are selected and the business managed with v judgment. With foreign grape*, how- . * ever, or any which are predisposed to rot i in our climate, as foreign grapf*?are, and ' the adoption of the modes of culture followed in other countries, he oohmders the Issue precurious. His estimate of the different kinds of grapes givos preference to them in the following order: 1. Toe Scupper nong, the famed native of North Carolina. Wellers Halifax, a native .of Halifax county North Carolina. 3. Nortous Virginia Seedling. 4. Lenoir, winch is the same* he says as the Clarence of France. 5. The York Madeira. -" 6. A grape called by hint' the Vita Arbor. The habella, he considers a'fine eating grape, but too subject to rotting to be cultivated for wine making AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN. Lewis Cornelius, Esq., died, in his 47th year, on Monday week, at his residence at Milford, Pike county, in the northeastern section of Pennsylvania. This gentleman was one of the most remarkable persons in respect to size, in the present age. and is only e.xcdlled by the celebrated Daniel Lambert. Mr. Cornelius was six feet two or three inches high, measured six feet round his body, and just previously to the iliness which terminated in his death, weighed 720 pounds. He felled* in consequence of sickness, ( i _r.j -.l :._i i k..? j nmu aiier ueain weijjueu uui uvo jjuuuus. ^ Such was .his extraordinary,.weight, that nn inch rope had to lie used. foT'hi? bedcord. The celebrated Daniel Lambert, | who stands unrivalled in weight of body, reached, we believe, 739 pounds, only 19 , moro than Mr. Cornelius, and the renown of Daniel has placed him among the wonders of the world. Mr. Cornelius was i hardly a less remarkable person, and filled nearly as great a space in the world. The following are the dimensions taken after death: Feet, k Circumference of waist, 6'2 1-2 Do body, 8 2 Do arm, above elbow, 22 Do arm, below elbow, 1 9 Do wrist, 13 Do thigh, " 4 2 Do calf of leg, 2 7 Do ankle, 17 /M tV / SUNDAY IN lAIUS. There is, perhaps, no line of-demarca- J lion so strong between the" English and i French, as the desecration of the Sabbath liv the latter. We may identify ourselves with their fashions, speak the Ian- i guage from preference, and visit exclusively in the Faubourg St. Germain.*, , until we have shaken off all patriotic < partiality, and we begin to fancy we are all brethren of the same lapd ; but this j illusion only lasts for six days of tie , week?the revolving seventh chills us aliens, among people who, make no distinction whatever of respect for the day i which we so highly reverence. . \ I The shops are unusually full on Sun- j day; the various labors of mechanics, masons, painters, carpenters, glaziers are | folloed as a matter of course. Ladies . stand at their windows with needlework ; and parties playing cards, .by- daylight < may be seen among all classes. I Sundav is the ureat washinir-dav with ! 1 ^ c ?J J Je* blanchisscuses of Paris, who only }>re. pare their laissivc for that day, (it is a strong infusion of wood ashes, the power- ( ful alkali of which saves them soap and \ labor, but at the cost of the linen, which it makes rotten :) the environs of Paris ' for some distance apj>ear 'so have been 1 seized by the washerwomen for drying grounds, and the number of Holds which on Sundays are hung with lines of clothes far exceeds what the eye can reach, and \ really requires to l>e seen.to l>e believed. Sunday is used also by country families who have their own laundaries; therefore it would seem to be more than a matter of chance. Cut no persons work so hard on the Sabbath as the French ' actors. Being sure ofa full attendance at any theatre on that day, they a*-e in the habit of malting excursions to Versailles anil other places within an easy distance of the capital, where they give a performance early in the afternoon to crowded audi- , ences, and then they return to Paris in i time to fulfil their usual business at their own theatres! t THE SHRAPNEL INVENTIONS. > Lieutenant Gen Shrapnel, of the Artillery, o the inventor of the shells commonly called h spherical case shot, has taken out a patent for g a new-kind of fowling piece, which without ^ using caps, may be fired more than one h ndrfd tiroes by tnearly cocking the gun and is more secure from going off accident ally which is always the case when any thing touches * the trigger, alter the gun is loaded. There a is likewise a joint in the stock, by which p means the barrel may be elevated or depres- a sed more or less so as suit the sportsman, and which may bo done in the field hy merely turning a screw for the purpose. Likewise a new musket, made to regulate the elevation ? of the barrel, according to the distance of the enemy, and also a pistol, which makes a good 8 defence against the broad sword. " t BKacriss or lynch law. t A week or two age, (says the Natchioches ^ Herald,) we gave an account of the trial of . one Jackson, in Harrison county, Texas, for murder; of the manner in which he was tried; r how he was acquitted; and how he and some c of his friends then seized the county judge, f McHenry, and brought him into Natchitoches; [ where he is now in jail, awaiting his trial. ^ under an indictment for carrying off negroes from that parish. It now appears that when Jackson returned to Texas, he was attacked and killed by four or five friends of AfcHenry; and they in their turn have been captured and s bung, without any ceremony, by the friends of Jackson. Where is this bloody tragedy te s end ? ' ?: . r A Snakc Story.?The St. Louis Bulletin t has a snake Story which will match with any t we have seen lately. The nun, too, talks j like he waa serious. Hesays; "We wit. f nessed an exhibition last Saturday that made ua *crawiali over." A gentlemen frora Iowa (Mr. Far.'and) basso completely domesticated J Hve large rattlesnakes thai he can handle them with perfect safety, and, what is most as ton- ^ ishing, he will, with as much indifference as a f horse jockeys would open a horse's mouth, s take one of his snakeship pupils in his hands j and open its mouth. He does this, as he says, , in order that the spectator can see there is no deception, and to expose the serpent's fangs. * Mr. Farland says that he has been engaged y in experiments with snakes for the last two I years,^and think she completely understands i their nature. Thclabove statement?#may appear 8 incredible, but we assure our readers we sc. tually witnessed the exhibition as above stated." - (ETThe fool will probab'y be bitten and killed by one of bis snakes some day. t A BUSTLE IN THE STREET.?OnThurSday a lady was observed pasing along the pavement not a hundred squares from our office?her form, beautifull in Its symetry, attracting the attention and commanding the admiration of all who saw her. Onward she moved with a soft but qtieeniike step?indicating a proud consciousness of the sensation she inspired? when sudenly UA change caine o'er the spirit of her dream;'* her steps became faltering and confused; her cheeks were suffused with blushes of Ibe deepest crimson, and her down cast upon the earth, as if invoking, by mute appeal, the ground to open and hide her from human sight. What could have caused so great a 1 change? Too soon was the reason seen. Alas! for human foresight and arrangement, how are they used in vain. Some slight neglect, some trifling oversight, had rendered nugatory all the work ofart.all J the laborofthe toilette,and the unfortunate I belle, whose faultless symmetry of form had been so much admired, escaped as soon as possible from observation, but left her bustle in the street. Ladies, do not accuse us of sketching the above from fancy,ft?r if you doubt its truth we can convince the most skeptical who will call at our office, by a sight of the article, which we shall be happy to return to the fair owner whenever she calls to claim it. [Bait. Clip. At the military review in Lowell on 23d ult. no less than fivp muskets burst, two of them doing serious injury, blowing to pieces the left hands of the men who held thein. The sufferers were a Mr. Kidder, of Townspnd, and William C. Reed, of Pepperell. The I guns were received from the State Armory not more than a vear and a half since. It was stated by the Secretary of the Irish I pocietv at its last meetingjthat there is about 5tK),000 persons in Ireland who have no know, ledge whatever of the English language, and about two millions tnore who have some knowledge of English, but whose vernacular is the Irish language. ?Atlas. l>?Try.r?...v .v t... t.n_ 4 vi cn/invai in ?- j Father Matliew administered the pledge to thirty-six thousand persons at Monaghan on St. Patrick's day, and to ten thousand at Clo- c ghorthe following day.

A Wisconsin paper remarks that the extensive scale upon which the business of farming is carried on in the West, is without a parallel in the Eastern States.

The crop has taken ^ a second growth, the bolls are beginning to j rot, and the worms, in many places we learn, are committing disastrous ravages. 1 A letter from theeditor of the Mobile Advertiser, dated Marion, (Ala.) Sept. 23d, says: "as to the Cotton Crop all accounts agree in this ' ?that it will hp very short. ITlt may bp ^ rnatier of interest to some to learn, that the two Postmasters, charged in the recent Official communication from the President to the Acting Postmaster-General, j with abusing their Offices for political pur- ( poses, are both Whigs, and the complaint against them was preferred by political oppo- 1 scnts. ; > Ral- Rig.
