Slav ?/ Afhgutand v*. Jlfitcheti.?-An In
dictment in We Baltimore city court, ?M
found against the travener for a violation of
the Uw of 1777, prescribing a penalty of
indicting persona from marrying within the
degree* of affinity as therein expressed?the
traveller having married hit wife'* daughter
?the parties were both residents of the
Mate?they left the state, went to Pennayl
van!*, there joined In wedlock, and return
ed again to Baltimore. At they were citi
xens belonging to the stato at the time of '
the contract, which* though stipulated to
!>c performed ivhllc la Baltimore* was not
solemnised, until they reached Pennsylva
nia, and beiug there consummated, was ft
nnlly completed by again coming to the state,
which circumstance* dearly brought the
ofTeiye within the provisions of tho act of
assembly to which we have alluded. Th!
trial, from its novelty, having produced con
siderable fxcitemciit In the public mind,
we have been induced to make a report of
it. The connscl for the accuscd contended
that the Baltimore city oourt hud no jurisdic
tion over the case, iutd that they could not
he amenable to n Maryland tribunal for a
crime committed beyond the limit* of the
state. The case was well argued and every
| circumstance that could possibly tend to
Ihcneftt the traverser was ubly enforced?
I but the charge was too strongly sustained to
I be shaken by any eloquence however Irre
sistible. The eourt overruled the objections
to the jurisdiction, fcc.?.ind pronounced
agsinst the offender tho penalty annexed
to his transgression.
In the Cour..v Court of Anno Arundel,
John Lowtrv anil James Hughes, found guil
ty of stealing sheep fr*..n Capt. Barber's
farm, were each sentenced two years to the
I'enctentlary, forty days of which to be in
the solitary "cells.
.Yew Surgical O/irrothn.?There is <n
the middle of each tooth, aa every anatomist
known, a little cavitx, in which tliu fine
branches of nerve*, passing through the
ntotit of the teeth, 'arc expanded. Thin ex
pansion of nervous matter is the Meat of gen
nation in the teeth; nud when, by caries or
ileeny of the enamel, it ia exposed to the
influence of external agencies, the patient^
generally obliged, on account of the violence
of the pain, to have the whole tooth pulled
out. An ingenious surgeon from America,
lately settled In London, has satisfactorily
shown, that the diseased part of the tootit
includiug the cavity ithove described, may I
he cut olt with the greatest tasu and celeri
ty, and that the sound root or roots may be
allowed to remain hi theif sockets. This
mode of procedure has been show a und ex
plained to the most scientific surgeons of
lliiirtuwn, who linve without exception, ex
pressed their conviction of Us utility./ The
operation has been tierformed on more thtui
200 mcmhen of tne profession, and they
have invariably declared that It occasioned
no pain, und that it could scarcely befell;
as tlieii' own ccttlfleateH show. The instru
ments used for this purpose arc very simple ;1
they are a few plain forcep*. right angled
ana straight, with cutting ndge*, like the|
common suivlcal bone fort-ens, but those
edges are made accurately to fit the neck* of
the teeth, ami only the neck*; to that,
however decay* d a t?#oth maybe, the for
ceps may be safely and easily applied, with-1
nut any risk of brcaking'th* tooth. 1 laving
been thus carefully applied on the neck of
a tooth, the edges of the forrejMi should be
held |mndlel to the edge of the gain, and
should be made to press it down a little, h|
order to get the neck, about a line bt low
the uuixl height of the gum; the handles of
the forceps arc then pressed gradually but
ftrmly together, and In a moment the-upper
part of tlie tooth simps ofT, including the ca
vity containing the expansion of the nerve,
MM thus In an instant, permanently relieves
-till pnin. The ud vantage* of this operation
are?'1st. It is painless und instantaneously
performed. 3d. The surface, of the sound
Mump remaining in the Jaw, presents a Arm
base for mastication; or for the Axing of an
artificial tooth. 3d. What Is' of greatest
moment, the stump or stumps left in the
jaw, aflord a firm support to the adjoining
teeth, and without which support, the
alveolar process corresponding to the pnrt
before occupied by the diseased tooth, and a
part of the interstice structure of the jaw,
become absorbed; the adjoining teeth in a
few ycats become loose, and ultimately pre
maturely fall out, an dutly experience shows.
Mr. Fay has, for his improvement in this
branch of surgery, and for other forceps for
the perpendicular extraction of teeth, when
extraction muy be absolutely required, re
ceived the large silver medal from the Hocic
ty of Arts; and the instruments, with en
f;raving?, will be published in the next vo
ume of the transactions of the soviet)-.

We were visited on the morning of (he
1Mb Inst, between 3 and \ o'clook, with one
of the mo*t awful earthquakes that has been
felt here for fifty vests past, at which time
nearly one half ?>? the town was destroyed.
There were two shocks, the second more
severe than the first, and the duration of
each was al?out one minute. The noise re
sembled the tumbling of heavy loaded wh
Sons dragged over a paved archway, and
mshed with a tremendous explosion like
the simultaneous discharge of an immense
number of cannon. The confusion was un
exampled?men, women and children sud
