The New York Iron Floating Battery. A Urge iron floating battery baa been building in New York for some years past. This iron vessel, so mysteriously docked and bid from public view, has already been fourteen years under way, and of course considerable progress has been made in her construction, and she could bo finished, if necessary, in one year. She is four hundred feet long, and thirty or forty feet in breadth.— She is built entirely of wrought iron plates, and each plate seven inches in thickness; these are attached to her iron frame to be propelled by two screw paddles, one on each side of her stern post. In sinoth water she will run, it is expected, from twenty to twenty-five miles per hour; and as she is intended ■ solely for harbor defences, she will have j smooth water to run in at all times.— She can, by her double propulsion pow er, by reversing one of her screws, turn in her own axis, or in the space of four hundred feet. She is to be mounted -wilh twenty guns, of the heaviest calibre and longest range. The dock where this wonderful floating battery is now lying is very mysteriously guarded. Owing to the extreme length of the vessel, rocks have been excavated, and one of the streets of Iloboken has been tunnelled to admit one end of the mon ster. When Mr. Robert L. Stevens died, he left models to enable Mr. Walker, the superintendent of her Ao complete the vessel in accordance with his original conception. She has «ost the Government, thus far, over half a million of dollars, all of which has been expended, and lately the work lias been carried on out of the private funds of Mr. Stevens. This vessel, or two or three like her, will guard New York from any force that may be brought against the piace. She is perfectly irn jiervious to shot or shell, from Lancaster, Paixhan or Oolumbiad. The iron plates of which she is constructed are each thoroughly tested by camion shot before being fastened to tho frame of the ves sel. Her marcliinery is all below the water line, and out of harm’s way.— Her speed will make her equal to twenty or thirty gun-boats of the modern style. With two or three such vessels, New York would indeed beimpregnahle. The Brooks Case. Washington, July 14. —The House to-dav resumed the consideration of the Brooks expulsion case. A resolution was offered reprobating the assault, and also language on debate personally offensive to members of Congress, or re flecting in any State, which was lost by 130 to 74. Mr. Cobb’s resolution ■declaring the House without jurisdiction was lost by 145 to CG. The resolution of expulsion was put to the House, and the vote stood yea 6 121, nays 95—it not being two-thirds, it was therefore rejec ts. Mr. Brooks made a speech, announ cing to the House that he had sent his resignation to tho Governor of South Caroliua. He then retired from the hall. Fatal Railroad Accident. John Lay blue, an Engineer on the Georgia Railroad, was killed on Sunday morning, about sixty miles irom Augusta, through some malicious person having cut the cross ties and turned over the rails. When tho train approached the .pot, the locomotive, “Atlanta,” was turned over and John Laybluo was instantly killed. An inquest was held by L. Levy, Esq., on his body, and a verdict in ac cordance with the above facts returned. We are informed that the nefarious action which caused the death of Mr. Layblue, had been attempted several times within the last six or eight weeks in the same neigtiborhood. The deceased had been on the Georgia Railroad about two months; ho was formerly for 17 years in the employ of the Charleston Railroad and was much respected. He leaves a ■wife and five children in Charleston. Chronicle & Sentinel. Arrest For Negro Stealing.—We are informed, on what we consider good authority, that a man named Knight -was yesterday arrested in Girard, Ala., at the instance of Mr. Brown, of Jones county, better known as P. B. Brown, ,(on account of his celebrated Peach Brandy,) charged with stealing a negro man named “Abe,” tli£ property of Mr. Brown. Abe was well known in Macon, where for a long time he was a check taker, at aR. R. Depot in that city; he 4s a mulatto, fine-looking, and very in telligent. He had been in this city pri ,or to the arxest, and was recognized by a jjentleinap wlw knew him, but was not >aware ,o.f bis peculiar “ mission.” Mr. t&ronre returned yesterday to Macon, taking with him his negro and the par ty implicated. These are all the partic ulars we bave been able to obtain, but we they will be found substantial ly correct. — Col’imbns Sup,—July 9<A. ill 11SI8*H IAII&I ¥I®I!#IU Testimony of a “Free State” Man. —Tho Herkimer county (N. Y.) Ameri ican contains a long letter from an antt slavcrv man in Kansas. After giving some account of the outrages by the Abolitionists, he says: “I am not a pro-slavery man, but I do despise, most heartily, this hot-headed meddlesome spirit, which so extensively exists in our country. I honestly be lieve that the Abolitionists of tho Ter- j ritory are the aggressors in nearly everv ' case of difficulty which lias occurred here—at least, so far as tnv humble knowledge extends this is positively true. I go about my own business, and have no fears of being molested ; nor do I think there is the least danger of any person being 'molested who wishes to have peace. It is tho lawless of both parties that fear danger. I Iresitate not to avow- tny principles (which are no slaves and no free negroes in Kansas,) even to Missourians, who pass my house almost daily, and they say that every man had a right, in this country, to his own views and they have no disposition to interfere with any man’s Jrights, &e. 1 hey seem friendly and well disposed, but despise highway robbers and Abo litionists.” Always do What is Right.—The truly great are those who always do what is right. To be withheld from acting wisely and conscientiously, by motives of temporary policy and fear, is to be have like a traitor to the principles of justice. A man should think less of what may be said of his conduct at the time, than of the verdict that may be pronounced a few years in advance.— It is by neglecting this, by sacrificing principle to expediency, that character lost is with difficulty regained. Besides, the first decline from right leads to others. It is like the start in sliding down hill. But there is a worse feature than even in succumbing to baseness, meanness or wrong. Ilahit soon drills the inoral perception, so that in time men come to perpetuate, without a remorseful pang, acts at which they would have been as tounded. “Is thy servant a dog that he should do this tiling?" is tho indig nant exclamation of many a person, who eventually commits the very deed he abhorred. Arnold’s treason grew up in his mind by slow degrees, nurtured by extravagance and supposed neglect. Washington, always being rigidly cor rect, left behind a name that will never cense to be reverenced. To say merely that “ honesty is the best policy,” and thus appeal to the selfish part of nature, is a poor way to educate man to do right conscientiously. Better tho No bler and higher ground, that should bo done for right’s sako.— Philadelphia Ledger. Weather and Crops in the Socth west. —The Albany Patriot of Saturday says:—This section has been visited with copious rains dur tig tho present week, and tho weather has been much more pleasant and agreeable than it was last week. The corn cropgenerully may be considered as pretty well made, and not liable to suffer to any great extent from future changes in the weather. Cotton is doing well. A private letter to the Editor, from a gentleman in Early county, under date of June 27th, says:—“We have very dry weather, but tho crops are good. — Wheat, oats and rye have goneraly been gathered, and turned out well. Plenty of vegetables. Peaches begin to ripen, apples and watermelons in abundance. A Silver Plated Fire Engine for the city of San Francisco, California, is now on exhibition at an establishment in Roxbury, Mass. Its cost it is stated, was SB,OOO. The silver is worth $3,000, and the ornamental work cost $5,000. The New York Clipper contains an account, from a correspondent in Wa tertown, Conn., of a fight between a hawk and a hen. The hawk seized one of the hen’s chicks and made off with it, upon which the parent hen immedi ately took flight after the theif, which she overtook about 100 feet from terra firma, and gave him such a drubbing that he was glad to let fall the chick and escape with his life. If you love others, they will love you. If you speak kindly to them, they will speak kindly. Love is repaid with love, and hatred with hatred. Would you hear a sweet and pleasant echo, speak sweetly and pleasantly yourself. “ Don’t tell me of to-morrow, Give me the man who’ll say, That when a good deed’s to be done, Let's do the deed to-day 1 We may command the present, If we act and never wait; But repentance is the phantom Os the past that comes too late!” Gentility consists not in birth, wealth, manners or fashion, but in a high sense of honor, and a determination to do what is right, to the best of our ability, under all circumstances —that is, “to do justice, to love mercy, and walk hum bly before God.” Specif Notices.

Augusta, Jan. 24, 1856. »»C-2i£k er Messrs. P. Dayis & Son.—Gents: Before I left Mergul, both Karens md Burmans had found out the value of your Pain Killer, and I could readily have disposed of a large quantity of it among them. It seems particularly effica cious in cholera morbus, bowel complaints, and other diseases to which the natives of Burniah, from their unwholesome stylo of living, arc pe culiarly exposed. It is a valuable antidote to the poison of Centipedes, Scorpious, Hornets, and the like I have been twice stung by Scor pions, and in both cases eased tho mo3t excru ciating pain and entirely prevented the swelliug by applying the Pain Killer. Oil our voyage homeward from India, the Captain of the ship was taken with vomiting and purging and other simptoms of cholera. I gave him a g,)od dose of Pain Killer with the most immediate and hap py result. Sn entire and speedy was the rolief, that he assured me he would never again go a voyage without your excellent medicine, if he could possibly procure it. Respectfully yours, Rev. J. Benjamin, late Missionary to Burniah. Sold by all dealers in medicine. M* Lane’s Worm Specific, PREPARED BY FLEMING BROS.

We should feel obliged by your forwarding, via Corning, N. Y., 20 dozen, with your bill, on the reception of which we will remit you the money. From the wonderful effects of said “ Specific ” in this neighborhood, there could be sold an nually a large quantity, (wholesale and retail,) from some local agent.

Tite comfort and health of their children is the legitimate source of much anxiety to those parents who wish to perform faithfully their duties to their offspring, and yet this very anxiety prompts them often to seek the aid of medical men, {who of course must give something to the child to gratify the parent ,) while, in nine cases out of ten, all that the child requires is a gentle and skilful friction, so as to arouse to ac tion the “minpte superficial vessels so apt to become torpid in infancy;” for this reason the most experienced nurses and physicians have never ceased, since its great virtues were uni versally known and acknowledged, to recom mend the “ Balm of Thousand Flowers,” which creates great elasticity and strength of limb, general health of body, and beauty of complex ion : all which is remarkably apparent in those children who have been judiciously subjected to the benign and sanitary influence of the “Balm.* For sale in Madison at the Book Store by Benj.

Her husband became greatly alarmed, as it was feared that she could not recover, so dreadful was the attack. After tryiDg many remedies without benefit, Mr. Hunt ley, at last, put her uuder a course of Holloway’s Pills, which she took for about three weeks, and the swelling considerably diminished; by con tinuing them for five weeks more, she was com pletely cured. These Pills will also cure all bilious and liver complaints in a very short time. C. P. CULVER, D. D. S., Havixo tnken the Office form- occupied by Dr. W. G.

Day.—Dear Sir—lt is with pleasure that I testify to the character and value of D ay’s M agical Cleanser, after having used it for some six or seven years. In the year 1830,1 was hav ing a house built, and by accident, a small bucket of ivory black was turned over upon anew laid floor of my house, which when wiped up, left a black spot as large us the bottom of a half bushel. After rubbing this spot with stro ig soap suds, I poured on it about three ounces of your Magical Cleanser, and rubbed it over the spot well with a cloth, for some five minutes, which removed entirely all stain of the black from the floor. I have frequently applied it to grease spots on clothing, and have no hesitancy in saying that it is/<ir superior to anything of the kind I have ever seen used. It removes the spots or stains with out the slightest injury to the color or texture of the goods, is easily applied, and requires but u few moments to perform its work. Respectfully yours, JOHN 11.

LIDDON CATHARTIC PILLS OPERATE by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the b!»x>d and stimulate it into heal thy action. They remove the obstructions of the’stomach, bowels, liver, and oilier organs of the bodv, and, by restoring their irregular action to health, correct, wherever they exist, such derangements .as are the first causes of disease. An extensive trial of their virtues, by Professors, Physicians and Patients, has shown cures of dangerous diseases almost beyond belief, were they not substantiated by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Their certificates are published in niy American Al manac, which the agents below named are pleas ed to furnish five to all inquiring. • Annexed we give Directions for their use in the complaints which thsv have been fouud to cure. For CosTTvr:,-ess.—Take one or two rills, or sy'm quantity as to gently move the bowels. Costiveness is frequently the aggravating cause of Piles, and the cuie of one complaint is the cure of both. No person can feel well while under a costive habit of bodv. Hence it should be, as it can be, promptly refieved. For Dyspepsia, which is sometime the cause of Costiveness, and always uncomfortable, take mild doses—from one to four—to stimulate the stomach and liver into healthy action. Thev will do it, and the heartburn, boilyhirn and soul burn of dyspepsia will rapidly disappear. When it has gone, don’t forget what cured you. For a Fon. Stomach, or Morbid Inaction of the Bowels , which produces general depression of the spirits and bad health, take from four to eight Pills at first, and smaller doses afterwards, until activity und strength is restored to the system. For Nervousness. Sick Headache, Nausea, Pain in the Stomach, Back, or Side, take from four to eight Pills on going to bed. If they do uot operate sufficiently, take more the next day until they do. These’ complaints will be swept out from the system. Don’t wear these and their kindred disorders because your stomach is foul. For Scrofula, Erysipelas, and all Diseases of the Skin, take the Pills freely and frequently, to keep the bowels open. The eruptions will gen erally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many dreadful ulcers and sores have been healed up by the purging and purifying effect of these Pills, and some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturate the whole system, have completely yielded to their influence’, leaving the sufferer in perfect health. Patients! your duty to society forbids that you should parade yourself a round the world, covered with pimples, blotches, ul cers, sores, and all or any of the unclean dis eases of the skin, because your system wants cleansing. To Purify tiie Blood, they arc the best medi cine ever discovered. They should be taken freely and frequently, and the impurities which sow the seeds of incurable diseases will be swept out of the system like chaff before the wind. By this property they do as much good in prevent ing sickness as by the remarkable cures which they are making everywhere. Liver Complaint, Jaundice, and all Bilious .1 feet ions arise from some derangement—either torpidity, congestion, or obstruction of the Liver. Toroid if y and congestion vitiate the bile, and render it unfit for digestion. This is disastrous to the health, and the constitution is frequently undermined by no other cause. Indigestion is the symptom. Obstruction of the duct which empties the bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow into the blood. This produces jaun dice, with a long and dangerous train of evils. Costiveness, or uTternatelv costivencss and diarr hoea, prevails. Feverish symptoms, languor, low spirits, weariness, restlessness, and melan choly, with sometimes inability to sleep, and sometimes great drowsiness; sometimes there is severe pain in the side; the skin and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow ; the stom ach acid; the bowels sore to the touch; the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever, which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic, bilious diarriioea, dysentery, Ac. A medium dose of three or four Pills taken at night, follow ed by two or three in the morning, and repeated a few days, will remove the cause of all these troubles. It is wicked to suffer such pains when you can cure them for 25 cents. Rheumatism* Gout, and all Inflammatory Fe vers, are rapidly cured by the purifying effects of these Pills upon the blood, and the stimulus which they afford to the vital priucple of life. For these and all kindred complaints, they should he taken in mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freelv. Asa Dinner Fill, this is both agreeable and useful. No Pill can be made more pleasant to tuke, and certainly none has been made more effectual to the purpose for which a dinner pill is employed. Prepared by J. C.
