m Having thus briefly touched at the cans- I 4 ttf our .present oinbarrasmcnt.s let us now took to fho remedy. This is plain and palpable. The triumph of Whig principles, and the administration of tho Government by honest and capable inon, can alone giy^us relief. This is a truth wo would, iipprjbss upon tho honest mon of all parties. Tho people know that if John Tyjor luul not proved a traitor to his pn. litioal friends, we should now huvo had an old fashioned U. S. Rnnk in full opera* tion; Commerce, Agriculture, and Man* u fact urea, would havo onco more flourish' odf and in consequence, the pcoplo would have compelled the General Govornmcnt to come forward in support of the credit of the States. His treachery has almost ro-consignod us to the slsugh of Loco focoism ; and it remains for the people to detsrmino whether they will extricate themselves and the country from tho deep disgrace into which we hnve fallen, or svhather the curses and abominations of a hard mooted Government and a pauper population, are to be entailed upon us for* ever t>y the triumph of our political op. ponentsin 1844.

WANTED, At this office, as apprentices, two active lads of good character, from 14 to 16 years of age, and able to read. A shock of an oartliquakc was felt, one day last week, in Columbia, Charleston, Wilmington and Raleigh. Tun FaKSSIU' ItEaiaTK*.?XVn liuvn n>n.i..il the January number of this periodical, which is the first under the management of the now Editor, Mr. Pleasants ; and our readers will consider it no small praise to say that it well sustains the character of the work whilst in the hundsof the former Editor. The Tabloof Contents, which is excluded this week, for want of room, shall appear in our next. The present number is the commencement of a new scries; the tiino is therefore suitable for new subscribers to commence taking the work.?

EimortAN Agricultural Tour anj Survey. We invite attention to tho article on the first pago under the abovo title. Mr. Cohnaa's reports of his Agricultural Survey of Massachusetts ore among the most valuable papers on the subject of agriculture ever given to the public in this coun. try. That his reports from Europe will be of in. calculable value to the country can be doubted by no one who has read hie Massachusetts reports and who knows any thing of European agriculture.? Although the crops, the soils, the climates, and the laborers of Europe are all different from ours, particularly in the southern states, still tho general principles wluch sro at the foundation of improve, ments in soils and crops are the same in ah coon, tries and climates. An intelligent agriculturist cannot read a good report of a *r?od system of general agriculture in any p?rt of the world without profit. We return our thanks to tlio H >n. John Campmix Am* sundry valuable public documents. CONGRESS. In the Senate Ute Oregon kill finally passod by a small majority. On Uio third instant, Mr. Berrien mado a report from tho Judiciaty Committee on the bill of the House, and a bill of the Senate to repeal the bank, rupt act. The report recommends that the Senate bill be indefinitely postponed; and that the bill from the House be so amended as not to repeal *-.1 k..i .k~i:.u ?l? ? r . no >W| vu? wiuni pi?yvioivit lur vuiuiuurjr bankruptcy, and require the consent or a majority of creditors to forco a debtor to bankruptcy. On the 6th Mr. Archer moved a reconsideration of the the vote on the Oregon bill. Tho question of re. consideration was postponed till the next day. On the same day the Senate look up an Exchequer bill on the table, and Mr. Tsllmadgo ma Jo a very able speech on tho subject of the currency. On the 7th tho motion to reconsider the question *>n the Oregon bill was taken up and lost, by a vole ef 34 to 34; not a majority for it. Had this quasi ion and vote been on the passage of the bill it would have been lost. On tho scmo day Mr. McDuffic submitted resolutions in favor of adopting measures to revive tho commerce of tho country, increitc its revenue, and prevent the accumulation of debts; also for modi, fying the tariff to a strictly revenue standard, and retrenching expense*. On the next day, Mr. Evans submitted a siring of resolutions which lie aaid he would move as an amendment to Mr. McD.'s when taken up. These declare that tho principal causes which depressed the commerce of ,i .1 - ?j ?J iiig guuiivijr wuiu uiu waiuui n ^wu currency, ana 4latc repudiation ; that the Federal Government will not pay tho state debts but that tho slates themselves ought to do it. In tho House the navy bill in still under consideration, and nothing else of much importance. A very interesting scene was exhibited in tho House of Representatives on tho 7th. Mr. Hum. mora, of Va., presented to Congress in the name of Sxmukl. T. Washington, a grand nephow of General Washington, tho War-Sword of the General, and a cane bequeathed by I>r. Franklin to General Washington. Mr. Summers nccompa- i nicd the presentation of tllr.Rn interestifirr rrlirx nf I tho Revolution" and mementos of WASHINGTON and FRANKLJN, with a few very appropriate remark", which were moat happily responded to Mr. Adams. At the close of those addrc < see tho crowds in tho galleries under tho impulse of the moment guvo emphatic expressions r?f! strong feeling mid warm approbation. Mr. Ad. 4 iui> at the cjo-o uf hia addrcaJ moved a resolution j that the thanks of Congress bo presented to Mr. Washington, and that the urticles bo deposited in the State Depart invnt, which was adopted, ~ On motion of Mr. Taliaferro the addreasos of Messrs. Summers and Adams were entered on the journal. The House then adjourned, though early in the day. Tho next morning tins resolution was adopted by tlio Senate, after a few eloquent and impressive remarks by Mr. Archer and tho Senate adourncd. TEMPERANCE. In the large, wealthy, and populous district of Newberry such has been tire influence of tho Tern- i pcrunno Reform upon public opinion, that at tho January meeting of tho Commissioners of Roads, the time when it was usual for rctuilers to apply for a renewal of their liconscs, thrre teas not a tingle application. Such a tiling has probably not occurred in any district in the state before, since the present license system went fully into operation. At Laurens C. II. the last retail shop has recent, ly been closed; and tho Commissioners have determined to grant no licenses for tho district. Mr. Carey is now in Charleston Iscturing on Temperance. We see in a Columbia paper an advertisement offering for sale a quack nostrum on the recommendation of "two members of Congress from South \ Carolina." The Hon. S. II. Butler recommends ; it as " highly valuable in colds, because" he certi- 1 fics " I have experienced rolief from it mysolf, and ' I can safely recommend it as possessing great 1 healing powers.'" Tho Italics are so marked in ' the certificate. Tho Hon. James Rogers adds: 1 " I havo tried the above medicine, and mnnir i>n. 1 tircly in Mr. Butler*? opinion." 1 JVe autor ultra crepidam. If members of Con- ' gross would confine the publication of their opin- 1 ions and cortificatcs to the subject of national politics and President-making?tlio ono in which a large ( proportion of them sccin to feel the deepest interest, 1 and with which they arc, generally, somewhat acquainted?they would be less upt to fall into ludicrous mistakes, than in making publications on Therapeutics and Mutcria Mcdica. Tho only " healing" power in Therapeutics (known to those J who understand the subject) is the via medicatrix 1 natur.k. Suppose Mi# power to be extinguished 1 in the animal body to which tho 44 Life Preserver" 1 of " tho two members of Congress from South 1 Carolina" is applied, and what would be tho effect c produced by its 44 great healing powers" ? The 1 lunguagc of the honorable gentlemen is about as " correct as it would be to sjteak of the propclliug power of the grease and blacklcud applied to u F wagon wheel. All intelligent physiologists know ' that in healing processes in tho animal economy, 1 medicines act only by removing obstacles out of 1 nature's way, or by aiding nature in removing or 1 overcoming them. The 44 hculing" is dono by nature herself. If the Honorable 44 members of * Congress" apply to a physician a dozen times, and ' ho relieves them each time of their 44 colds," though 1 in all the successive instances, a change of symp- I torus requires a change or modification of treat, ment, they think nothing of it- 'Treating diseases 1 is his vocation. He has studied it, understands it, and therefore succeeds in it. But if they apply to an ignorant empiric,?or what is inorc common, if he applies to them for permission to cxi>criinent upon thorn, sad kin ?qnriinoi?t fnils, nothing is said about it. But if his nostrum happens to suit the particular variety and stage of " cold*' from which tticy sulTcr, they arc in f.ipturcs that u fellow so ignorant should know how to cure a cold, und they give liiin an unqualified ccrtificuto of their confidence in him, or rather, in his " modicine," as a general cold-curcr; and that without referonco to the variety or stage of tho cold?to ' constitution or age?to climate or season?to the ' effect upon tho secretions, whether cutaneous, re- ( nal or mucous?whatever may bo the state of the 1 body, whether sthenic or asthenic?whether it suf- ' fcrs from plethora or depletion?whether it needs 1 bleeding or stimulants, starving or stuffing?whatever may havo been the previous stato of health? whatever organ may be atfectcd, however, and to whatever extent; let the disease only he called " a ' cold," and whatever tho symptoms, this is " tho best medicine." Because the Honorable gentle, men once " tried'' travelling up tho river from the I mouth of Potomac Creek, and thus they reached Washington City, do they thcrofurc infer that by travelling up the river from Ceorgotown, Balti- e more, Philadelphia or Columbia, they will also reach Washington City ? No. Why do they not ? Because they understand tlic subject matter of consideration, and know better. We repeat the adage: Ne tutor ultra crepidam. Wo mean no disrespect to the " two members of Congress from South Carolina." Nor can the most fustidious allege that there is any indelicacy r in inf pn/liir?t in?a nf llioir nnmou tnfn r??ir n/.Iimana I in connection with this subject. They gave tlio ? certificates (supposing thcin to be genuine) with their names appended by themselves, evidently for the purpose of being mado public, and thereby challenged public scrutiny. The small pox is now prevailing to more or less extent in Ronton and New Orleans, and one or two small towns in Mississippi. It was stated in tlio Columbia Chronicle two or tlirco weeks since, on the authority of a letter from Charleston, that it existed ulso in that city. We see advertised in the Georgetown Observer, u negro man committed to the jail of Williams, burg 44 who says his name is Jim, nnd that lie be. longs to Neal MoBride of Chesterfield District." If the law requires nothing to be done to inform the owners of runaway slaves taken up and commit, ted to jail, except to advertise in any paper which the sheriff or jailor may select for that purpose, it ought to be amended. It is the interest of sheriffs or jailors to retain slaves as long as they can, be a I e at I ! -1 1* ciiujhj mtir iucs uru inuruiiy incrciMCU* 11 in mere- ) fore tlicir interest to select that pn|>cr for advertising ^ which liic owner of a slave committed will he least apt to see, or hear of. Not many sheriffs or jailors would do so; yet the law ought not allow uny to do it. The Naval Court Martial for the trial of Alkxani>KK Si.idki.i, MuKknzik and others, for alleged murder on board tho brig Somrrs, is in session in the city of New York. Commander Mclvcnzic admitted the facts alleged, and plead not guilty to 11io charges, which arc murder, oppression, illegal punishment, ami conduct unbecoming an officer. It is probable tint the trial will not occupy a shorter tt*iio III ?n the Court of Inquiry consumed in its in vi i.tijiit ioiu. Judge Burrs of New York lias recently deci. tied that a foreigner, after residing a certain time in this country, is entitled to avail himself of tlie Bankrupt Law for the purpose of extinguishing debts contracted in his own country before he ran. away to this. Is it any wonder that, in tho light of such decisions, we should be considered a nation of thieves and robbers, by foreigners ? Tho following statement appeared in tlie Char, leston Mercury of the 4th February, and was overlooked by us at the time or we should Iftve copied it sooner. Humbugs aro so common in our day, and tlie public seem so easily gulled by thciu, that ovcry exposure of any of them calculated to impress the popular mind, ought to l>e as extensively circulated as possible by the conductors of newspapers. THE SO-CALLED MERMAID. "We have examined the production recently exhibited at the Masonic Hall purporting to be " the most wonderful curiosity in the world?the Mermaid." This pretended wonder is formed by the artificial union of two very distinct and widely separated species?an Ape and a Fish. The form of the head?the presence of hands with flat nails, and the long canine tocth, prove that the upper part of this compound belongs to the order quadruinana or four handed animals, which arc composed of many genera and species, [hat arc usually called by tlie general name of Monkey* The presence of check pouches, which n this dried specif011 are thrust upwards on tho :hcck bones, announco ii to Ijavo been an inhabitant of the old world and not ol' iliP V.C-vr, as no Ymcrtcan Monkey has as yet been discovered with these appendages. The specimen has been nueli distorted and disguised in the preparation; t appears, however, to be that of an African spesies, frequently seen in the managcrics of the tinted States. Tho lower part is the tail, together with the skin if the body of a Fish of the order Malacoptcrygii Ybdominalin of Cuvicr, which includes a large umily of fishes whoso rays are all soft, followed >y a second one, small and adipose. The method which has been adapted to iinposo his gross deception on the public, is the following. Hie body of a Monkey, (the hips aud lower cxrcmilieu having been removed,) is inserted into ho skin of the Fish deprived of its head?the vorcbral column of the Monkey descending eight or en inches into the fish's skin. The termination if the fish skin upwards can be traced without nueli difficulty round the body, resting on the kin of the Monkey which passes underneath. This caricature of nature is rendered inoro aburd when we tukc into consideration that we i.?

Qiicre :?Is there no way by which impostors ike those who practise this trick upon a too crcd. jlous public can be suitably punished ? Lawyers, ve believe, have a way of bringing suit for the re. sovery of money obtained by fulso pretences. If i few hundred of those who paid their money for t sight of this made Mermaid, were to bring suit n this form against the exhibitor, the sum total of ho costs would amount to a very considerable line.

Two days afterwards intelligence was received that the steamer Creole was down the hay making her way up with Hknrv C'i.ay on hoard. In u few minutes the whole city was in commotion, and "alive with enthusiasm." The '. UamhoutJ in port lighted up their tires and moved down the river to form an escort. The military turned out extemporaneously in their gorgeous uniform, and the citizen* iu countless crowds thronged the wharf, on foot, on horse back, and in carriages. Wo have not room for a description of the scene on the appearance of lite boats and Uicir arrival at tlic wharf, with flying colors and crowded decks; llio debarkation of the eminent Guest, and his triumphal escort through the thronged streets of the city in an open carriage drawn by four splendid and richly caparisoned grey horses. Of the liberal and patriotic spirit with which this able, faithful, and long tried servant of his country was welcomed by all parties, some opinion insy be formed from the following: ADDRESS OF GOV. GAYLE. " Mr. Clav?The citizens of Mobile have assigned me the grateful and pleasing duty of congratulating you on your arrival in Alabama, and of assuring you of the unfeigned satisfaction your Visit llinni " !? ? * ' ? ? -MVIU* Iitiaii IU HIUUIII^ u WVICOIII6 iU OUT shores. I represent tlic entire body of our citizens, who disdain, on this occasion, to bo recognised hy any party designations. Our municipal authorities, our military companies, our scientific, literary and professional men, our farmers, me. chanics and merchants?all, sir, of every trade, calling and vocation, unite with one voice in the offer of their cordial salutations, and in ten. dering to you the hospitalities of this ancient city. This, sir, is the spontaneous homage which an in. telligcnt, discerning and virtuous community, arc ever ready to pay to great talents, to exalted worth, und to eminent public services. " Your connexion with public affairs embraces u i period of more than thirty years, and when it is re. | mcmbcrcd, that during the time, you have been called to participate in the control and manage. < mcnt of almost ui*cry department of the public service, and that you have excrtC'' ? marked and decisive influence upon those great niC.ast.'TO which lave been proposed ,-s proper to fix and scttio til? ralicy of the government, it is obvious, that the ' events of your life and the history of the republic ' ire so blended, that the pages which record the one nust include the other. During your long, ardu. >us, and conspicuous career, it could not be exicctcd, that you would escape- those angry party collisions which urc inseparable from free governncnt. Nor could it be supposed, that the prcju. j liccs and passions which these collisions seldom j( 'ail to excite, would exempt your conduct from a Kccasional, unjust and illiberal criticism. But like [ ill bad feelings and passions, their duration has j Keen brief. They have vanished before the light p if truth, und given way to those sentiments of jus- ice and liberality which the American people vill ulways tiltimutely entertain towards their ' uithful public servants. And now, sir, when you ^ tavc withdrawn from the perplexities and cures of (, >ublic business, und sought in retirement the re- ? >ose so congenial to the evening of life, it cannot mt be gratifying to behold the cheerfulness with ! which your countrymen every where, and of eve- ^ ry party, hear witness to your ardent and lofty patriotism and to tho purity und intcgiity of your political life. 44 We of Mobile, in an especial manner, owe you a debt of gratitude for your patriotic efforts in inducing the government to wrest from tho dominion of tho King of Spain this interesting section of the Union. Those who were opposed to this step, were alarmed at, and deprecated the wrath of Great Britain, which they supposed would be roused against us by any interference with the ter- 1 ritories of Spain, tlton her friend and ally. But as it formed no part of your creed to take counsel from tho imaginary fears of the colossal power of the mistress of the seas, you fearlessly and eloquently maintained our right to the possession of tho country, and demonstrated (lie policy and propric. ly of subjecting it to our lawn. Mobile was then an obscure village, a mere dcj>endcncy of a Spanish military |K>st?you now behold it a city of extensive commerce, and the emporium of one of he largest staple States in the Union. For this, tir, and for all the distinguished services you have rendered this great country, we tender yon our 1 thanks and gratitude, und again I bid you wcl. come, thrice welcome to tltc Slate of Alabama." We have not space for the eloquent reply of Mr. Clay. ] ? ? The two mates of the brig Poukney, of Balti. more, attempted ubout the 25tl? November, to murder the captain und take the vessel, which at the time was on a voyage to South America. The f>lan seems to have lieen badly concerted and worse executed. The Captain was knocked down late at night, whilst he was p issing up tire companion way, hy one of the mates; the other mate immcdi *??ly wcnton dc.sk to prevent the crew froin intcrfcrin?? by telling them that the captain had a scuffle ivith the second mate and would certainly shoot tny of tlieni who might enter the cabin. Soine if tliem, however, did enter and save the captain's ; life. One of the mutes is said to be from Charleson, and well educated. Tlieso facts are stated ' >y the captain of a vessel which arrived in Boston y "rom Pcrnambuco. The plot seems not to have been f .ommuuieuted to any of the crew. Those who ( would have McKcnzic convicted of murder for c executing Spencer and others for plotting a simi- | ar clime, may derive some comfort from this. If r >iracy on board American vessels is what they ? wish, it would seem they arc likely to be gratified. Since the above was put in typo we have re. jcivcd the Charleston Courier of the 8th, in which . tve find the following paragraphs: r " Mutiny.?A letter from Iluvanasays: 'We | liavc had a ' Somcrs Mutiny' on a small scale.? riio brig (Inula, of Boston, Saui.k, master, from ' Mobile for the former port, put in here two days ( since, the crew having refused duty and plotted to , murder the Captain and Mate, and lake tlio brig lo?' the Isle of Pines' of course.
