[ of tlie United States, "permit ?ne, through (
I your columns,to disclaim all voluntary agen[
cy in the publication of tlie offensive portion ?
U of the lGth Number of said "Work. That ?
[ Number was issued at Boston,audi was *
| surprised and shockevl%whcn the criminal 1
, character of a portion of its contents was
( brought to my attention, and immediately
i took measures for ^ suppression. No
r' Agent of mine shall TOX'ive that Number

oi any rcucuui ui uicir uisurucs ci uimui- i

that foil incessantly during the day, or the. st
apprehensions of danger from the attack c
of the military operated to prevent a recur- jj
rence of the disgraceful proceedings of (<s

Greenville, Feb. 27.?Casualties,-We 1 ?
understand that Mr. Henry Springfield was l<
frozen to death on the night of the 18th inst.
about 12 miles above this place. The
weather was very cold, tl?e ground covered n
with snow, and we regret to add, the deceased
was somewluit intoxicated, lie hns c
left a wife and several children, to mourn
lits sudden and unexpected departure.
We have clso been informed that Mr. 10

years of age residing near l!?o Tubl* Rock I
in Pickens District, perished with cold, on i (1
the nigiit of the 18th inst. in tiie vicinity of! c
his own dwelling. Wc arc not in posses- j
sioii of the particulars attending the death ! 1
of-Mr. D., but learn that ardent spirits was | n
connected with the unfortunate affair. .]
On trie evening of the 10th inst. an affray j ?
took place at a "Grocery" six or-eight miles i'
above this place, when James Brown stab-'
bed John Southern, ami wounded him so :
severely that it is considered very doubtful j
whether he recovers. Brown is in Jail to
await his trial. This is another instance in f
which Alcohol has wielded its maddening
influences over sonic of our fellow mortals. {

Improved Fire-Arms.?We saw yes- \
terday in the hands of the inventor, Mr.
Samud Colt, of Hartford, Connecticut, a t
new desaripion of fire-arms, superior to any j;
other which w? have ever seen, the tie plus !r
ultra, we should think of those implements i r
of destruction. They were a rifle and a pis-1 s
tol, constructed on the repeating principle,!
by means of a revolving chambered cylinder
filled with a number of charges, and "
capable of beiug removed and replaced,
with a fresh supply,'with the greatest case .
and quickness. We cannot undertake a
minute description of the invention, nor do (
t ie purposes x)f a passing notice require it.
We will, therefore, only Say that for siui-; <
plicity, celerity and efficiency, wc doubt if'*
the contrivance has an equal in the whole
magazine of arms. x (
The Naval and Military Force of Egypt.- t
The Pachas' navy is said to be put ujiou a j
complete war footing. His ammunition (
and stores are daily increasing, and his
crews arc also rapidly improving. He lias '
six ships of 100 guns; two of 85; two
of 80; five of 60, two of 52; four of 54; two
of 22; four of 20; three of 10; one of 14; J
and one of'10 guns. The Admiral or Muriixfroki,
has under his command 440. ofti- ]
cers of all ranks, and upwards of 600 sail. *

ors, besides auxiliaries, .in t;iu lUi .
-of this country arc being put into the most <
formidable state of defence; a nd,from the re.
cruits enlisted in the country, the army, by
the spring, will amouut to 36,000 effective j
men, without including several garrisons. (

It appear* from the Quebec Mvtcmjjl that ]
some fellow who wished to interrupt the pn^ceed, i
ings of the Assembly of Lower Canada, sprinkled
the tincture of Asaftetida in different parts
f-% *?#? for *gI rrp-.f-.
y* . Institutions. As a citizen of a Southern
slave-holding Stale, I will have no agency
in circulating calumnies against the South,
and I certainly never would knowingly have s
offered for the patronage of Southern men, a
a Work in which they were insulted and
abused. J return-thanks to the South for ^
the liberal patronage I have received, and r
again promise that the succeeding Xumbers I
of this otherwise useful and interesting Pub- i t>
lication, shall be free from the stain by which
* the 16th Number is disgraced.

Several thousand laborers, stevedores, and, j
shoreinan, are perambulating the city, com- ^
jrelling every man at work either on buildings,
or alongside of the wharves, to strike tmd
break off*. At the foot of Pine Street,
yesterday thousands of these persons were
assembled, to compel the -hands on board f
the various lines of packets to break olF. ;
Justice Bloodgood, with a possjof officers,
went there to seize 911 the rioters; a genera!
figfit ensued, several persons were knocked" ri
down and one of the police officers was badly p
beaten. The laborers demand a dollar and
half a day, and shoremen a dollar and
throe quarters, and although the merchants*
generally consented to pay these rates, yet f
the Society required that tin-principal owners
of packets should sign a paper that they w
would continue 1'acsc prices hereafter. t

object of tho publication is to disseminate
horough knowledge of the cultivation of the
albcrry Tree, in all its varieties?tho rearing of

it derived from any crop which can be put upit.
It is also a fact, that every farmer can
se several hundml dollars worth of silk, witht
interfering vtti his ordinary agricultural
crations. But in order to avail himself of this
:ility to gain competency and wealth, which
r soil and climate have given him, ho must posts

thont it his attempts will be fruitless. It is,
;refore, the object of tho Committee to diffuse J
,s information as extensively as possible, and
tho cheapest rate. Tne publication will conn
a complete manual or directory from sowing
j seed to reeling the Silk, together with such
:ts and experiments, as will enablo farmers to
se Silk, and prepare it for market, withoat fur>r
knowledge or ^sistance. It will also con.
n interesting matter on agricultural subjects in
a oral.
