They informed Brown that they )usd not reeiv'ad an answer to his letter, and that ho must wvalt a littlo while. In 'the miean time they had further commu. ':-nlcation from Charleston, with a requesi that'the operator would send for 'an officar end- have Brown arrested. This was done, and while Brown was quietly seated waiting the return answer, Marshal Blod. N"~iaddg his appenfance, took' him inte cuit~y;and oarried him to jail;. Aflei he was arrested, he aoknowledged ha had 'ivhed the negro int Charleston for a small maum to a Mr. Bryant-that his name was Iohn B. Smith, and said 'that 'the negr-c was 'gierto him by a "man in Macon, nained Win. Pool, to Roll, and that he'was to tet'half thepraceeds asbhis share. He has since acknowledged that the negre bglongeid to Mr. Thomas Foster, of Butts eounty, and although Brown, aliasSmnith, saya hea di'd not steal the negro, he believes March 4.

IUSTANG" IN. WASHiGToN,--A Wash ington letter. says:- - - -, The reception of Mr. Freaner, who brought the treaty from Mexico to Washing ton, at the Department of State, has caused a. good deql of laughtier at the capitol. Coming from Mexico in seventeen days, he had but little time for his toilette and on his arrival 'ported a blue jacket. and pants, one leg of which was straples, -while the 'want of sus penders displayed a foldof check linen over the waiotband, a broad brimmed tarpaulin hat, with a face covered. with ranchero-looking vhiskers. On his landing at the wharf he hastened in a "qh (though the hackmen t were rather shy'kof him,) to the residence of the Bedretarq of State, where he was flatly refused admission by the porter in waiting.

AARON ASnBnIDGE. A CHILD ATTAcKED DY A RAT.-Onl Tuesday evening last, while the other mem bers of the family were in an adjoining room, an infant daughter of Mr. J. A. Schermer horn of Lambertville, in this State, who was ling in her cradle, was heard to cry violent ly, and upon searching for the cause, it was ascertained that a large rat had entered the apartment and attacked the child, who was found covered with blood. The voracious animal had bitten one hand entirely through in two places, which is much swollen and inflamned.-Nlewark Advertiser. The queerest object in nature is a Spanish beggai-, for these beggars beg on horseback; and it is an odd thing to see a man riding up -to a poor foot pasenger and asking alms. A gentleman ini 'apaiso, being accosted by one of these mounted beggars, replied, "Why, sir, you come to beg ol me who have to go on foot, while you ride on, horseback!". "ey true, sir," said the' beggar, "and I have thenmoreneed to beg as I have to -support my horse as well as myself." There are two lives in each of us--gliding on at the same time, scarcely connected with each other! the life of our actions--the life of our minds; the external and the inward history: the movement, of the frame-the deep and ever-restless workings of the heart. History reveals men's deeds, men's outward characters, but not themselves. There is a secret self that hath its own life "rounded by a dream"-unpenetrated,- unguessed. The physicians who made an examination of the body of the lady who died in Cincin nati recenly whiilst under the influence of Chloroform, have published a Card, in which they state the following facts "jst. Mrs. Simmons, as shown by the con.. dition of the various organs of the 'body, was in good health when the Chloroform was ad ministered. It is truo she had4 labored under Alight catarrh a few days. previous to her death; but we are of opinion that the very slight diseased action which existed; was in no way instramentai in causing the fatal re sult. 2d. We have no hesitation in express ing the oinion, tha&t death was caused by the~ action of Chloroforma. 8d..Death resulted from a rapid and com. .plete exhaustion of the nervous system." So1Itudle and disapontment enter the history of every man's lire and he is but half provided for voyage, who finds but an associate for happy hours, while for his, months of darkness nnd distress, no sympathizing partner is prepared. -Worth Trying.--The North Carolina Farmor ays :---The best cure for sore throat is- to Set miirried. to a pretty girl, and sleep everynight with her sleeve- en veloping an-arm4 round ayour nieck, in :stad af a" atocking." -r b :"~se40th Oha Art4t p n pait Oents'per pqupdo-a klight IpOepen It'bas bee t r ndu that, many perso did not obserie that the prodcedings6f the R Iif -aeeting o Irelandi" publiiedh n ou list inuder, 4were prepared "By the Edits, h therein used language in regard to j harks tf M, .

We notice a mabuscript letter from Thomas Jefferson on the aiudof the Law, which is of interest. Among other things Mr. Jefferson . advises a course of general reading, and mak this remark about Shakespeare. "ShaSpear must be singled out by one who wihes to have the full powers of, the. English language; of him we must advise as Ho race did of the Grecian models--'os ex pleriaGraeca nocturna versate mainu ver. sate diurza,'-which is frcelytranslated, --study them by day, study them by night. THE TREATY. We are in expectation that every mail will bring us the news of the ratification of the treaty by the Senate. The whiga in general are afraid to take upon them, selves the odium of rejecting a measure so ardently desired by the whole people, notwithstanding party considerations, and are expected to vote for it. It'is" said to have' the hearty concurrence of the Presi dent and his cabinet. The definite action of the Senate in regard to it was expected to take place on the 8th instant.. A MEDICAL FACT. The monthly British Medical Journal for October, 1847, states as a fact, that at least one-third of all individuals awho die after the age of forty in that climate have had diseased lungs, to a greater or less ex tent, which have healed by the spontane ous cure of nature. .This fact is eviden ced by the scars which have farmed over ulcers in the. lungs, sometimes of large size, and was ascertained by an indiscrim inate and continuous examination inilarge hospitals in England, Scotland and France. This shows that nature frequently cures consumption, and that this disease - re quently commences in many persons. It would be very gratifying'i not only' to the community at large but no doubt to th e members of the medical profession, if si milar investigations wvere made in the hos pitals in this country, with a view tonas certain if in our country so great a num ber of persons are attacked by the incipi cut stages of consumption. .We are un awvare if this has been done here; if so, a continuance ofsuch examinuktions would be interesting. JEWISH DISABILITIES BILL. The bill for the removal of the civil dis abilities of the Jews in England, embra eing the political francuhise that they shall sit in parliameont, passed its second read ing in the House of Commons, on the 11ith of February, by a vote of 277 against 204, making a majority of 73 in its favor. Sir Robert Peel made a most liberal and masterly speech in favor of the bill, and with it, losed the debate. I. is time, indeed, that sucha .en as the Rothschilds, the D' Israei,'and other *Jews ofintegrity and intellect, should 'not be any longer 'civilly or -socially disabled on account of their religion.
