The Senate of the United States adjourned on
tjg J7fh inst. sine die.
The National Intelligencer of the 18th, says
,Receiving no additional nominations from the
President, a committee was appointed, consisting
of Mr. Sanford and Mr. Dickerson, to wait upon
the President of the United States, and inform
him, that, having transacted all the business be
fore it, the Senate was about to adjourn, should
the President have no further communication to
ia*ke. ,
“The committee having waited upon the t resi
dent, and reported that he had no further commu
nication to make, tho adjournment was moved and
carried nem. con.”
“In the sitting of tho Senate, on Monday, wc
learn, tho Message of the late President of the U.
States, transmitting the instructions to the Pana
ma Mission, was restored to the Legislative Jour
nal from the Executive Journal, to which it had
been consigned as to the stream of oblivion. But,
with admirable consistency, after decreeing it to
be public property, a motion to print it for the in.
formation even of tho members of the Senate was
decided in the negative! The real merit of tiial
measure, howav.er, is not thus to he hid under a
bushel.”

To do away with all doubt and uncertainty, ie
htive to the reform of the Post Office, tho New
York Enquirer observes, “We have never ceased
t, consider the Post Office Department is one of
the most influential in tho government—its long
infers reached the extremities of the Union; and
oar experience in this state satisfies us, that a
great difference is felt in all political conflicts, in
having postmasters with you, instead of being
Igaiustyou —in our state it is of essential, nay vi
ta! interest, particularly in the portentous hurri
cane which is approaching, and wo openly rejoice
at tnu flattering prospects which the change may
produce. We and > not approach the subject in q
mawkish, crawling, fastidious manner; vye go to
it openly, frankly, decidedly; there is no secret
ibMit it. If the administration of Genoral Jack
ion is to be firmly sustained —if it is to stand liko
i rock, on which the billows of faction break them*
selves in vain, he must turn out his enemies and
appoint his friends. There is no medium—no
half-and-half course—ho must go it like a man,
xnd taka the responsibility of such measures the

Escape of Prisoners. —On Thursday
night last, eight of the prisoners confined
in the jail of Baltimore county, broke out
and made their escape. Their names and
a description of their persons will be found
in the advertisement of the Warden* pub
lished in another part of this paper. The
following particulars of the manner in which
they effected iheir liberation, have boen
kindly furnished us. One of the prisoners,
the notorious Burr Bladen , (who escaped
from tilt* prison at Philadelphia not long
since) had concealed within the lining of
bis coat, when committed, a briar saiv s
calculated for the purpose of cutting through
iron bars, After the walls enclosing the jud
lot were raised to prevent escapes it was
considered necessary to remove all the fur
niture, benches, &r, that were in criminal s
rooms, which wo.cid bo likely to facilitate
any attempt of the kind Instead of bench
es, stools were introduced, that nothing
like a ladder mig.u be constructed; but
notwithstanding thir- caution, the object was
effected by tho .criminals forcing down the
pin racks which had been fastened to the
stope Wallis when the house was built, for
the convenience of the prisoners clothing.
These strips of plank were spliced together,
to form a ladder. While this was preparing,
one of tire large iron bars was sawed off by
Bladen, which made a small opening of
about ten by tsvelve inches, through which
the prisoners passed with considerable diffi
culty, and descended by a rope manufac
tured from their blankets and sheets. They
then ascended an inner wall of the jail lot;
on which they passed to the outer wall, and
from thence lowered themselves down out
side of the enclosure.
Three of their fellow prisoners remained
in the room, and would not assist; one ol
them was gagged and left in that condition;
the others were threatened with instant
death if the least noise was made during
the transaction. Their escape was effect
ed between the hours of 12 at night, and 2
in the morning, and with such stillness and
secrecy, that the prisoners in the adjoining
room and other parts of the house had no
knowledge thereof until day-light appeared.
The guards who travelse the building at
different times through the night, passed
tho room near 12 o'clock, when ail appeared
quiet and secure.— American.
March 16.
We learn that Thomas Ward, the mail
robber, and Samuel Thompson, two of the
criminals who escaped from the jail on Fri
day morning, were arrested on Saturday
on the Washington Turnpike, near Elk
Ridge, by those vigilant officers Thomas
Ross and John Stewart, and havo been
brought to their former lodgings.
The atrocities committed in Edinburg
have led to the disclosure of various schei* *s
practised to procure subjects, for the use of
Medical Schools. They are imported from
France and other places; and all kinds of
devices resorted to, to obtain them at home,
ever, that of murder, which it is believed
lias been practised at many places besides
Edinburg. The following trick is also
enumerated;

A swindler named James F- Nelson, who
appears to be a great rogue, and bears the
marks of hand-cuffs on his wrists, has been
ai rested in Worcester, Mass, where he had
passed himself upon four different families
in succession, as a near relative, from a dis
tant part of the country; but. before be had
an opportunity to carry his swindling plans
into successful operation, he was interrupt
ed in his course by the appearance of an
oTcer fiom Oxford in pursuit of him He
had played a similar trick at Oxford, where
he appeared and passed himself off as the
nephew of a widow woman, in that place,
the son of a sister who lived ir. a remote
section of the country. He so related many
circumstances, corresponding with the true
history of the family, as to remove all doubts
of his being the person he professed to be.
Ho represented himself as possessed of
great riches, and, after securing the confi
dence 4,f the family, succeeded in obtaining
from tho widow a sum in bank bills, for
which he was to give her gold, of which he
said he had a large amount in his trunk at
the tavern, and that the paper would be
more convenient for him to cairy. With
that he decamped, having forgotten to leave
the gold iu ilssfead. —N. J- Courier.

Questions Settled by Phrenology. —
People very often make ihemselves merry
by quizzing subjects which they do not un
derstand. Phrenology has borne its portion
of the laughter of ignorance, but its votaries
have not been laughed out of countenance.
They have raised their favorite science to
an elevated stand, whence it commands the
respect of the wise, and the curiosity of the
ingenious. This is no small triumph, when
we consider the contemptuous incredulity
with which the first promulgation of Phre
nology was received. Every one knows
that there is a great difference in beads—
that the head of a wise man is materially
unlike that of a fool in general form and
appearance, but every one does not seem to
know that th3 difference between complete
structures must arise from a difference in
the component parts of those structures.—
This consideration alone ought to claim
some respect for the science of Phrenology.
A late number of the Phrenological Jour
nal, exhibits the following points as settlpd
by the discoveries of the scippce. The
inquisitive reader will find then) worthy of
attention:
1: That the brain is exclusively the or
gau of tbe mind.
2: That the mind possesses a number of
distinct or primittve faculties, each of which
is dependent on a particular material organ
for its manifestation; tbe power of manifes
tation being ceteris paribus, in proportion
to the size of tbe organ.
3: That these faculties and organs are
divided into three great classes; propensities,
sentiments and intellect.
These may be considered as the great
leading discoveries of Phrenology. The
following either flow from, or are included
under, the above general heads.
4: That faculties, and not ideas, are
innate.
5: That attention, perception, memory,
and imagination, are not primitive faculties
of tho mind but only modes of activity of
all or any of the intellectual faculties:
6: That there is an infinitive variety
among individuals in their respective en
dowment of ifie primitive faculties. Hence
the differences among men are original and
innate; a mathematician is not necessarily
a metaphysician, nor a poet a painter.
7i That these original differences des
cend, by the laws of propagation, from pa
rents to children.
8: That it is upon this principle chiefly
that national character depends; the feeble
ness of the Hindoo character, as compared
with tfie European, being caused by the
former inheriting from nature a smaller
brain than the latter.
9: The distinctive character of the sexes,
particularly in the propensities of amative
ness and philoprogeniijveness, and in gen
eral sizes of the brain.
10: The essential distinctions between
men and the lower animals: In particular,
the latter do not possess the organs of the
sentiments of hope, veneration, conscien
tiousness, &c. nor those of the reflecting
faculties of comparison, casiiality or wit.
11: That man possesses a natural senti
ment leading him to the worship of God.
12: That man has an innate moral sense.
This depends chiefly, though not solely, on
conscientiousness. The existence of this
faculty disproves the virtues given by Hume,
Hobbes, Mandeville, Paley, &c.
13: The existence of the faculties of
adhesiveness, inquisitiveness, secretiveness,
love of approbation, benevolence, consci
entiousness, and intellect, prove tfiat a
of society or civilization is natural to man,
in opposition to the reveries of Rosseau,
Monboddv), &c. who held that the solitaty
or savage state was natural, aud the social
unnatural.
14: That we may determine, a priori,
tbe. educaiion most suitable to be given to,
and the professions best .adapted for, differ
ent individuals.
J 5: That insanity is, is in every case, a
bocljly and not a mental roaladj; and that
the seal of the disease is exclusively in the
brain, or in some particular part of it.
16; Hepce tho pause of partial ipeaaity:
J
the organ of selfesteem, for example may
alone be diseased, in consequence of which
the individual may suppose himself to be a
king; while every other organ and, in par
ticular, the organs of the intellectual facul
ties, may be in a state of perfect sanity.
17: The cause of idiocy, partial or total,
arising from the difficiency of size or struc
ture in all or any of the organs.
18: The phenomena of dreaming, pro
found sleep being the repose of all the or
gans, aud dreaming the activity only of some
of the organs.
The points above mentioned are held by
Phrenologists as indubitable. Some of
those which follow may admit of doubt, but
are considered, at least, highly probable.
19: The analysis of humor, she combi
nation of wit and secretiveness.
20: Analysis of the different faculties
which occur in producing music, chiefly
tune, time, imitation and secretiveness,
21: The necessity aud importance of
Imitation and secretiveness, (the latter in
particular giving expression,) in acting, and
in the fine arts
22: That the disputes which existed as
to the reality of an external world arose
from casuality attempting to take cognizance
of that which belonged exclusively to indi
viduality and the other knowing faculties.
23: Phrenological theory of virtue; the
faculties on which it depends being benevo
lence, veneration, and conscientiousness;
former theories having been founded chiefly
on propriety, prudence, or benevolence.
24: The cause of the different dgrees of
liberty, enjoyed by different nations, are
dependent chiefly on their respective en
dowments iff tbe higher sentiments, and
not on their particular forms of government,
free institutions being the effects and not
the causes of liberty.
Trumpeting.- r-The following account of
a circumstance which recently occurred at
New York, we find in the Evening Bulle
tin. It is too good to be passed over uuno
ticed:
Some theatrical critic in New York, re
cently took occasion to animadvert upon
one of those important occurrences whiph
commonly constitute the essence of dramatic
hypcrcriticism. In remarking upon the
accompaniments to one of Mrs. Austin s
songs, the writer expressed great indignation
at the accidental interruption of what.he
denominated the nasal trumpet of Mr. Nor
ton, the celebrated trumpeter. The latter
in a note to tho editor of the Evening
Post, justifies this obligato passage, on the
grounds of “necessity, a European consti
tution and an inclement winter, 11 f) G adds
his belief that he blew his nose strictly in
time according to concert pitch—makiug a
perfect third with the key note--the song
being in D major, and he blowing on F
sharp.
The Legislature of New York unanini
onusiy adopted the followiug resolution.
“Resolved. That ihe congratulations of
this house be presented to his excellency
Martin Van Buren. late governor of this
state, on his appointment to the office of
secretary of state for the United States;
and that while we deeply feel our separa
tion from one with whom we have been as
sociated in the discharge of important pub
lic duties, as well as iu social and friendly
intercourse, we cannot forbear to felicitate
the republic on the acquisition of his servi
ces in the councils ot the nation.”

REMARKS.
Cotton.—We have had another very dull week
in Upland, and the sales will scarcely amount tu
1000 bales. The few transactions that have been
made were in good fair to good and prime parcels,
at from 8 1-4 a 8 3-4 and 9 1-4, and in some in
stances 9 1-2 cents. Liverpool dates to 3d Feb
ruary have been received, and although
more favorable, they do not appear to have madd
the least impression upon our market. Sea Isl
ands have been in moderate request—say for the.
eparse qualities at from 17 a 20—but the ai ij.clo
must be considered as dull, and a further decline
is looked for. Wo quote 17 a 22, and. upwards for
tine brands.
Groceries.—A cargo of New Orleans Sugar,
lately arrivod, said to be of a very good quality,
was nearly disposed of on the wharf at $8 1-2.
Some sales of West India Molasses at 31 a 31 1-2
cents, and a small lot of New Orleans, in barrels,
at 34 cents. Some sales of Whiskey at 27 a2 •;
Gin, 33 a 35; N. E. Rum, 34 a 35; Coffee, 13 a 11
1-2 cents.
Rice —The demand for Rice within the last
two or three days has faqr-~sales have, been
made at from 2 1-2 a 3, principally at 2 5-8 a 2
3-4. We quote 2 1-2 a3, according to quality.
Flour—Continues to sell slowly—a small sale
of Howard street was made yesterday at s*.
