< ^ - ?. plead propinquity and property of blood in extenuation of offence, or mitigation of punishment." Gentral Gaines has written a letter to some of his friends at Memphis, Ten., to tell them that he 44 withdraws his name from the list of aspirants to the Chief Magistracy." It seems that somebody in Pennsylvania had previously nominated the General as a candidate for the Office of President of the United States. The Richmond Enquirer in speaking of the resignation of the Hon. John C. Calhoux, from the Senate of the United States, says: 44 We deeply regret to lose the services of Mr. Calhoun in the next Congress.? He is one of the brightest luminaries, struck out, as it were, from the firmament of our public councils. His mind, how. ever, will not be lost to his country?for we understand that he is engaged in the ^composition of a work on the Principles of Government?winch is destined, perhaps, to toe a posthumous production?and upon it Mr. C. means principally to rest the monument of his fame. For the. present session, no State will he so well represented in the Senate of the Fnited States as South Carolina, in the persons of Messrs. Calhoun and McDjffie. Or Yellow Fever and its Origin. . .fo August last the Board of Health at New Orleans addressed a letter to the president of the Board of Health in New York, asking lor such information as the experience of New York would afford Lcmching the origin, foreign or domestic, of yellow fever, and the utility of quaran tine laws to prevent its ravages. The letter w as referred to a committee, .rfmatsUng of a resident physician, health officer, health commissioner. Mayor, and iwo aldorrnen, whose answer we find in .the American of Saturday. The committee set out in reply by a .statement of the considerations which induce the belief that yellow fever is a disorder sui generis, distinct from ordinary bilious and intermittent fevers. They then enumerate briefly the grounds on which foreign origin is contended for by some and domcstie by others, with an ev. ident leaning to the former opinion?and conclude by an unqualified expression of iheir belief that the non-appearance of the disease in New York since 18*22 is mainly if not wholly owing to the increased rigidity wiih which, since that time, our quarantine regulations have been enforced.?N.

Rail Road Accident.?Last night, about 10 o'clock, as tiie train from LinJ. adelprna was approaching Newark, one of the rails broke, although an 11 rail, after the locomotive had passed ; the end toward the passenger cars was thrown up, caught the lower frame of the first one, and literally tore it in fragments, launching the body with the passengers in it on to the road, without the slightest hurt to any of them. The rails and sleepers were torn up for two or three hundred feet. A train from Newark took off the passengers, and this morning ttie wreck is all cleared away, and the road repaired and in use again.?N. Y American. Deaths iiy* Consumption in Boston, New York, and' Philadelphia.?An article by Dr. Hny ward,of Boston, for the New England Quarterly Journal of Mr. dec me and Surgery, for January, furnishes the following statistics. In Boston, the whole number of deaths for thirty years, from 1811 to 1840 inclusive, was 3* 616, by consumption, 6,243. In New York, during the same time, there were 152.485 deaths, of wh ch 27.486 were of consumplion. In Philadelphia, 113,596?by consumprion, 16,221. Average number of deaths by consumption in Boston, 1 to 6,185; in New York, 1 to 5,547 ; in Philadelphia, 1 to 7,003?the difference being in favor of Philadelphia.
