The Drummond Light is produced by simply
placing a piece ot limestone under the action of
Dr. Hare’s Compound Blow-Pipe. The light
emitted from a surface not larger than a ten

the shadows of objects a distinctness which we

Amos late eflort of this in
famous man, to detract from the well earned re
putation of Mr. Clay, by the publication of a
pamphlet, entitled “Clay’s Duels, whiehhas
been extensively circulated throughout the
Northern and Eastern States, while it convicts
him of the baseness of ingratitude, shows him
capable ot attempting the accomplishment of
his objects bv the Basest means. In relation to
this subject, the Washington “ JVhlg Standard"
has the following:
Opinion of A»i<>s Kendall and his Libels, by a
Democrat.—The Democratic correspondent ol
the Philadelphia Chronicle makes thefollowing
very just strictures upon Kendall’s lying pamph
let “Clay’s Duels.” The same opinion we are
"lad to know is held of this writer and his pub
lications by all the honorable men of the Loco
foco party at Washington. The correspondent
ot the Chronicle, says—
“ I have read this pamphlet ol Mr. Kendall’s,
and I must say that it is no less discreditable to
its author, tlyan injurious in its tendency to the
success of the democratic party. Mr. Olay is.
a statesman of too eminent a public character
to be lird down by detraction ! ’“ d , l ? ,srep 'T?®"'
tation. I trust that the morejtidiciousmembeis
of the democratic party will set their faces
against this and similar pamphlets from the pen
of Mr. Kendall. If party policvcannot restrain
Mr Kendall from putting forth such publica
tion's, the recollections of Mr. Clay’s benefac
tions to him when he wasa poor and unfriended
stranger in Kentucky, ought to prevent him
from"’this self-degradation. The democratic
party has stronger weapons than abuse and
calumny to employ against Mr. Clay, and wri
ters of better morals and reputation than Amos
Kendall to defend its cause and advocate its
principles.”
Dainty fare!—The late Dr. Post, of New
York is said to have furnished the following
humorous receipt for making “ Homoepatliic
soup." To get fat on such fare, would require
about as long a time, we should think, as the
Scotchman inferred would be the case with the
“ wild ass of the desert,” who “snuffeth up the
east wind!”
“Take twoistarved pigeons, hang them by a (
string in the kitchen window so that the sun
will cast the shadow ol the pigeons into an iron (
pot already on the fire, and which will hold ten ,
gallons of water, boil the shadow over a slow ,
fire for ten hours, and then give the patient one
drop in a glass of water every ten days.”
New-York Town Meetings—As far as
heard from, the Whigs of New-Y ork have re
deemed eighty towns from locofoco domination,
compared with the results of last year, in the
local elections—and the account is better still,
compared with last fall’s general election.
£J-The people of New-Jersey had a very
great blessing conferred upon them on Thursday
last. Their locofoco legislature adjourned on that
day. <
Tui" Wr t , “nF .7.--The Niagara ('IT
C) Reporter ot the Gth repons a renewal ot
trouble among the workers on this canal.
There has been a general strike for higher
•wages—at Allanburgh some of the barrows
belonging to the company were destroyed and
some windows smashed—and the engineer has
suspended one of the contracts on account of the
contractor giving short weight in the articles
purchased at his shop by the woikineii.
One of the most remarkable instances of
despatch in the communication between New
York and England is that furnished in the late
passage of the Uueen of the West, Capt. ood
house. In less than fifteen days and a h»lf al
ter leaving New York, the vessel was entered at
the Liverpool custom house, and in sixteen
days after leaving the wharf in New Y ork, the
cotton composing her cargo was offered for sale
in the trans-allantic market.
The Voice or Pennsylvania.—On Satur
day last, in the Monse ol Representatives of
Pennsylvania, the following resolution was, i n
motion ol Mr. Cooper, adopted, 58 to 32:
“ Resolved, That it is the duty ot Congress to
protect the labor of our own country against the
competition of the pauper labor of other countries,
•without reference to revenue.”
The tariff bill reported by the committee
of ways and means, it it should be adopted with
out material modifications, would reduce the
amount of revenue probably twenty-five per
cent. —and prove vitally' destruction to all tire
manufacturing interests ol New England.—Bos

Ohio.—A Committee ot Conference between
the House and the Senate have agreed on a
compromise apportionment bill, which, though
unjust to the Whigs is deemed better than to let
the Government come to a dead halt. It gives
the Locos 17 certain ofthe 36 Senators, with the
better change in three »r four other districts.
The House will stand about 32 certain to each
party; Bdoubtful. The bill has passed

Loss of Schooners Zephyr and Anulona

nublishes the following extract from a letter
received bv a gentleman of that city, dated at
Manilla brought by the ship Robert Pujsford.
“1 have just heard ofthe loss of the schooners
Zephyr and Anglona, both late of Boston. The
Zephyr was bound to Bombay, from Canton,
for a cargo of opium, and hads6oo,ooo in specie

“ She was taken in the China Sea by pirates,
and all hands murdered. I have not heard the
particulars about the Anglona, but understood

The Z was sold to an American in Canton,
and the A. to a foreigner.
Later from the West Indies.—The St.

worth recording, namely, that on the occurrence
of the earthquake in that Island on the 19th
January, thoseclocks of which the pendulums
oscillated from east to west were almost all stop

from north to south were not affected. The
Dominica Colonist states that the same shock
was felt in that Island, and also that there have
been frequent recurrences of them, tor example,
one on the 30th and two on the3lst Jaunary, and
one on the 3d inst. We observe al-o in the St.

Voting Men’s Whig National Convention of
Ratifirntion.
71 Dre. WCgsrfta' Ihuled Stales:
I’kllow Citizens:—The Young Whi.as of
Baltimore, assembled in Convention, have
delegated the undersigned, to solicit, in their
name, your attendance at the Young Mens
Whig National Convention of Ratification, to
be held in this city, on Thursday, the second of
May.
The discharge of Ibis grateful duty, requires
us to enter upon no elaborate statement ot the
reasons which prompt us to desire your pre
sence. The Presidential canvass has, already,
been opened before the nation. Already, tne
movements ofthe people have begun to indicate
the profound solicitude they feel lor the pro
ver decision of the great questions which it in
volves. Those questions have been the subjects
ofyour familiar discussion and anxious thought.
You have nothing to learn as to the political
faith you profess, and nothing can strengthen
vour conviction of the momentous extent, to
which the fortunesof your country depend upon
its successful promulgation. Upon these things,
therefore, we forbear to dwell.
Four years since, your enthusiasm burst forth
upon this spot, into a flame, which went on,
burning unto victory. We call upon you, again
to light your fires among us, at the altai of the
same patriotism. Now, as then, you have high
principles to animateyour counsels—high aims
to consecrate your action, Embracing, in itself,
all that is comprehensive and statesman ike, in
public policy: all that is thoroughly and warm
ly American in scope and spirit—blending all
that deserves the approbation of the good with
all that commands the favorable judgment ot
the wise—your cause has a right to demand,
that you should give your energies and thoughts
to its triumph. Upon the men, by whom that
cause is to be represented before the country,the
choice of a National Convention has not, it is
true, yet fallen. The public feeling however,
echoed in a unanimity of acclamation, has left
no doubt that the distinguished citizen has been,
in fact, already chosen, upon whose genius and
wisdom and virtue, the confidence of our party
will, chiefly, rest the hopes of the Republic.—
Upon his character, comment is useless. It
combines and illustrates all the elements of
nobleness which belong to the American people.
The source of our highest pride—it has been,
no less the centre of our wannest affection. 1:
was made for a nation's reverence—it has earn
ed a nation’s gratitude. Place can lend it no
dignity, higher than its own. The office to
which Washington gave lustre, is the sphere to
which its greatness belongs.
Against our principles, sustained by such a
champion, what opposition do we find arrayed?
So far as the d -scord, which results from unset
tled principlesand conflicting personal ambition
has permitted any thing like eertaintyto spring
from the action of our opponents, it seems that
thev have nothing to offer, but another trial of
the same men anil the same measures, already
so signally oveithrown. YVhat they can pro
mise io themselves from such a policy, is not
easy for us to imagine, nor is it needful that
wc should inquire. It maybe that their esti
mate of popular intelligence and consistency
suggest to them, that reprobation by the people,
furnishes the surest guaranty of the people’s
admiration now! Perhaps they have some
hope that their champions may gain in sym
pathy, as political martyrs, what was denied to
them, in respect, as political saints! Be that,
however, as it may, to them—to us, the revival
ofthe old war-cry but revives, in tenfold force,
every element,oi' our former resistance. We
deem their men and measures now—as wc
deemed them, when they last received sentence I
of condemnation—unworthy the confidence ot ,
the country —hostile to all that can promote her 1
welfare—dangerous to the purity and perman- '
cney i f her excellent institutions. Four years
cannot have made political corruption less cor
rupt, nor political imbecility less imbecile. ,
They are now. what they were before. They i
can be discomfited now, as they were routed then! 1
Let our fellow Whigs, therefore, apply them- !
selves io the task. It is easy, but it is of solemn ,
import. Let the young men of the nation gather ■
themselves together! The country has need of ‘
their united deliberation. [
We have lately exerted otfrselves, not unsuc- .
cessfully, here in Maryland, to make our State a f
proper rallying ground, for the great Whig '
Council. "We have shown to our countrymen, ,
a Whig victory, thorough and glorious, as the t
best pledge ofour devotion to the common cause. ’
We present them a regenerated Commonwealth, ,
as our worthiest and most acceptable offering.
It is to the Whig City or Baltimore—Whig, >
at last, from centre to circumference—that re
bid them make their pilgrimage of duty. Our
banner is but awaiting to be unfurled by ,
their hands. Our homes are as open to re- ■
ceivethem, as our hearts will be to give them '
welcome. ,
Come then, fellow citizens, from far and j
near. Let the East and the West assemble in j
fellowship! Let the olden brotherhood of the <
North and the South, be once more cemented, ’
bv a common devotion to a righteous cause, ;
That cause’and its success demand your pres- <
ence 1 We shall be prepared to greet you !

Individual Peculiarities of Insane Per
sons.—Div A. Brigham, in his Report of the
condition oftheNew York State Lunatic Asy
lum of which he is the superintendent and phy
sician, states that as many as fifty out of 275
patients have had their minds deranged through
religious anxiety, long attendance on protracted
meetings, &e, and that -want of sleep is also an
immediate cause of insanity, and one that
should beespecially guarded against. Ilegives
the following interesting synopsis of the varied
and peculiar fancies of the inmates, showing
how singularly insane many ol them are on one
point, or subject:
“ In addition to Emperors, Queens, Prophets,
and Priests, we have one that says he is nobody,
a nonentity. One that was never born, and one
that was born ot her grandmother, and another
dropped by the devil flying over the world.
One has had the throat cut and put in wrong, so
that what is swallowed passes into the head,
and another has had his head cut off and repla
ced every night. One thinks himself a child,
and talks and acts like a child. Many appear
as if constantly into, icated. One has the gift of
tongues, another deals in magic, several in ani
mal magnetism. One thinks he is a white po
lar bear. A number have hallucinations of
sight, others of heating. One repeats whatever
is said to him, another repeats constantly words
ofthe same sound, as door, floor. One is pur
sued by the sheriff, many by the devil. One has
invented the perpetual motion and is soon to be
rich; others have already acquired vast for
tunes; tcraps of paper, buttons and chips are to
them, large amounts of money. Many pilfer
continually and without any apparent motive,
while others secrete every thing they can find,
their own articles as well as those of others.” A
majority are disposed to hoard up trifling and
useless articles, as scrapsof tin, leather, strings,
nails, buttons, &c. and are much grieved to part
with them, One will not eat unless alone, some,
v ; n _. —(7' ’ with a few sticks and straws tills
his loom with officers and soldiers, ships and
seilois e;rri;>:.’> < and horses, t:c management
o'fv. !u 'i: o c:i; ■ s all his time and thoughts. ■
Some .. . ■g. <.l memory as regards most things,
and singularly defective asto others. One does
not recollect the names of his associates, which
he hears eveiy hour, yet his memory is good
in other respects. One says he is Thomas Paine,
author of the ’Age of Reason,’a worx he has
never read; another calls himself General
Washington; and one old lady of diminutive
size calls herself General Scott, and is never so
good matured as when thus addressed. One is
always in court attending a trial, and wondering
and asking when the court is to riee. Another
has to eat up the building, drink dry the canal,
and swallow the Little Falls village, and is
continually telling of the difficulty of the task.”
Another Steamboat Collision. — Loss of
Lip.— With regret we are compelled to record
still another steamboat disaster upon our river,
accompanied withloss of life. Y'csterday morn
ing, between 3 and 4 o’clock, whilethe Amer
ican Eagle was ascending the Mississippi, she
came in contact with the Rainbow at Roman’s
Point, some 50 miles above the city, carrying
away the boilers and chimneys, and. otherwise
damaging her. So forcible wgs the’ collision,
that the steam connecting pipes of the Rainbow
were broken, causing the instant death of one
white man by scalding, while two others were
severely injured from the same cause.—Three
negro firemen were also badly scalded. The
Rainbow was descending at the tune of the ac
cident. She was yesterday towed to the city by
the Ambassador.— Picayune, March 15.
Arkansa.—The Little Rock Gazette, gives
a glorious account of the progess of the Whig
cause in Arkansas. “It the spirit which is
now movingthemasses inall partsoftheState,
says that Journal, “shall go on, as it will do,
conquering and to conquer, Arkansas [ave Ar
kansas'! will be redeemed, regenerated and
disenthralled, by the election, in October, ot
Walker, for Congress. Gibson, for Governor
and a whig Legislature j and by tecording i»cr

It was a mysterious dispensation of Provi

was no common character. Mild and modest,
full of soft sympathies, yet firm and resolute in
the discharge of duty, her life was a charm and a
blessing to her friends. Natural and truthful,
intelligent, confiding, affectionate, and generous
to a degree that consulted the comforts of others
before her own, her character presented a combi
nation of gentle virtues which made her beloved
on earth, and qualified her for companionship
with angebsin heaven. She was indeed an ema
nation from the nature of God, his love, and his
truth ; and she has gone back to the bosom of
his spirit His will be done ! Our God has call

Liverpool, Feb. 10.
There has been no change in our market since
my let'er of the 3d, ami although business has
been irregular, there has been considerable done,
for the sales of th week reach 55,480 bales.
On the 7th the advices received by the New-
York packet of the 18th January, appeared at
first to have calmed the ardor of speculators and
possibly assisted, in a measure by the meeting of
the Manchester spinners, having for its object to
find means »o resist the Liverpool speculators.
Yesterday we received later advices from the
United Slates, subsequently to which 14,000 bales
were sold, of which 8000 bales on specnlation, at
prices tending upward. Today the market is
more active.
Liveapoo*., Feb. 9.
There has been an absence of all excitement in
our mark I this week, though on one or two days
the-e was an active speculative demand, with a
slight improvement in the prices of common
American and Surat Cotton; but, subsequently,
the Trade has been again almost the only pur
chasers, and no change can be made from the
rates current on Friday last. The same remarks
apply to Brazil and Egyptian Cotton. The sales
on speculation during the week amount to 24,600
bales, including 18,400 American, 600 Pernam,
200 Egyptian, 100 Bahia, and 5300 Surat. Eu
porters have taken 50 American and 150 Surat.

In the Superior Court, )
March Term, 1844. )
XEORGIA, Columbia, County :
Present his Honor, Judge Schly.
The Grand J mors chosen and sworn, March
Term, 1844, 1 raving gone through the business
before them, r. lake the following presentments :
We congrati ilate tfie county, on having no pre
sentments to make on the criminal side of the
court. . . i
We have exn-.mined the offices ol tne Clerks
of the Superior and Inferior courts, and find them
faithfully k ept, f -nd in good order.
We have exan lined the county 1 rttasurer s ac
counts, ami find that office, neatly and faithfully
kept, and find in the Treasurer’s hands, the sum
of two thousand one hundred and twenty eight
dollars fifty eight and a half cents. ,
We have examined tbe Jail, and fi 'd it in an
unsafe condition, and recommend the Interior
court, to have the Jail placed in a situation for the
safe keeping of criminals. , »
We have made enquiry in relation to the bridge
near James F. Hamilton’s, and understand the
Inferior court have been making exertions to
have a bridge built across Upton’s Creek, and
have entire coinfidencc in the fidelity and discre
tion ofour Inferior court. -
The Chand J ury’ have conferred with the In
ferior cciui t, in njation to the act of the late Le
gislature relative to the poor school fund, while ]
they acknowledge the education of the poor to
be praiseworthy and commendable, yet they do
not believe that our community at present is in
a situarion to bear a tax adequate to effect the
object desired, and that an insufficient one would
be p/irtial and unequal in its operations.
The Grand Jury, accustomed t hip ugh a senes ]
of years, to attend upon the Courts of Justice, <
ana to note the social evils brought to light, in <
the course of judicial administration, which call
for legislative remedy, and impressed with the
injustice done to the fairer and better part of cr?a- (
tion, bv the law which vests absolutely in the ]
husband, the property of the wife. They observe
h< >wever, with unfeigned pleasure that the policy
ofsecuring to married w omen their patrimonial
estates, is rapidly growing in public favor, vve
1 elieve not only that the policy is founded in ab
j jtract right, but that it is recommended by nu- .
merous strong considerations of public policy. ,
We believe that it will encourage marriage; that
it will avert in a great degree the terrible domes
tic social evils, which result from certain reverses
of fortune ; that it will give greater stability to
property, check the restless spirit of emigration,
and abate the too prevalent mania of speculation.
Therefore, without attempting in the narrow
limits of a presentment to enlarge upon the evils
ofthe policy, or to suggest the details proper to
such a measure, wc cannot but commend u to
the favorable consideration of the people ot Co
lumbia county, and especially to their luturc Rep
resentatives in the General Assembly.
We tender to his Honor Judge richly, our pro
found respect for the courtesy extended toward
this body, and hope ho may soon be restored to
health, and to his official duties. We tender io
John J. R. Flournoy, the Attorney (reneral, our
respects for the courtesy extended towutd tills
body.
We request these presentments be published in
the Chronicle & Sentinel, Augusta, Ga.

THE PHILOTOKEN :
“ OR FEMALES’ FRIEND.”
r efficacy of this remedy, in re
moving and correcting those derangements
to which the female system, in every condition,
is so peculiarly liable, renders it well
WORTHY THE ATTENTION OF THE
LADIES.
The Philotokcn is strictly a vegetable remedy,
prepared from roots, that act in unison with Na
ture. Its happy effects are best attested by the
warm commendation of living witnesses—those
who have given it a fair trial, and who speak
from experience. To the pale cheek and languid
eye, it brings the bloom of health. To the rest
less nights and wearisome days of the nervous
and debilitated—and to the suffering, anxiety,
and danger, frequently attendant upon the lives
of females, in certain conditions, it brings sure
relief, comfort and protection. And to those who
arc pining in dreary loneliness, unblessed with
offspring, the use of this remedy (from the “joy
ful experience”of others in such cases,) promises
the most encouraging hopes.
jflr For all particulars, (which cannot, with
propriety, be inserted in a newspaper advertise
ment,) see pamphlets— to be had gratis.
