COLUMBUS: Friday Morning, March dO, 1857. I.AIWEST CITY CIRCULATION. Another Duel. The New Orleans Delta states that a duel came oIF at the “Oaks,” near that city, on the 12tb Inst., between Mr. J. W. McDonald, edi tor of the Natchez Free Trader, and Copt. J. K. Duncan—pistols being the weapons, and the distance twelve paces. Shots were ex changed without doing any damage, though it was said that McDonald’s bullet passed so close to Duncan as to cut his vest. After the first fire the challenge was withdrawn by Mr. McDonald. r —■ —♦- ———— Weather and Crops in Eastern Texas. The Husk (Cherokee county) Inquirer, of the 4th inst., says: 1 * During the past month, the weather has been delightfully warm, without a single frost. The fruit trees have been long since in bloom, and the forest trees are now assuming their leafy covering. Farmers have generally made preparations for planting; and while some have planted, others preferred waiting until the sea son had further advanced. The wheat gener ally is from six to twelve inches high, and looks remarkably well, and no untoward cir cumstances intervening, the crops will be very tine.” The Nacogdoches Chronicle reports that in the last week of February, a terrific hurricane visited the western portion of that county. Rheumatic Balm. The M< dical World recommends the volatile oil of mustard as a good remedy for rheumatic pains. It is to be used as a rubefacient, being first diluted witli its own weight of alcohol at forty degrees. Though it may be objected to for its temporary pungent odor yet it is said In have effected a permanent cure in many instances. Dis applied twice a day, and the affected parts are to be protected with soft fiaunel. Whether the oil can be procured here we do not know, but it can be purchased where mustard mills are in operation. It is stated it would have become a secret remedy for rheumatism did not its pungent odor afford the means of detection. The remedy is sim ple, and if one sufferer shall receive relief from its use we are repaid for giving it further publicity. ——-* Curiosity Satisfied. “Doctor,” said an old lady the other day to her family physician, “kin you tell me how it is that, some folks is born dumb ?” “Why—hem! why, certainly, madam,” re plied the doctor ; •*it’s owing to the fact that they came into the world without the power of speech!” “La, me !” remarked the old lady, “now just see what it is to have a physic cdication; I’ve axed my old man mor’n a hundred times that ar same thiug, ami all I could get out of him was, ‘kase they is.’ ” This reminds us of an anecdote told of Pro fessor Longnecker, who many years ago, in ('(ilumiius and vicinity, taught ehirography, and lectured on Phrenology, and other scien ces generally. One evening, after he had de livered himself of a very sapient lecture (as he thought) one of his auditors confidingly inquir ed of this devotee of Spurzbeim and Bacchus, the cause of/off. Tho Doctor drew himself up in his proudest attitude, took a pinch of snuif, cleared his brain by one deafening sneeze, and emphasising each word, replied: “Adolescens, I liavo no leisure to explain at length, but suf fice it to say, it is caused by the pressure of the air on the atmosphere.” The auditor, sat isfied with this erudite reply to his question, departed homeward perfectly enlightened, whilst the Professor sought tho nearest saloon to appease a thirsty appetite, which it is said was a peculiar constitutional disease under which the Professor labored. ♦ Anoodoto of Gen. Walker. A correspondent of the New York Times tells the following anecdote of Gen Walker: And now for my anecdote, which 1 give you as it came at second hand. You will remem ber that the last campaign began about the middle of last summer. President Rivas and his officers visited the commander-in-chief at his quarters. They found him alone. The conversation took place in Spanish, which Walker used with some difficulty. Only one American bat Walker witnessed the interview, standing in the door of the ante-room. “The country,” said President Rivas, “is destroyed. \ou are seizing all the power of the govern ment, and filling the offices of State with men who have no knowledge of our language or of our laws. We cannot allow the confiscation of estates. It only makes enemies. Peace, with such a policy, is impossible. You are no longer needed here. Your presence is hurtful to us. The power which employed you and culisted you in our cause can as well unmake you. It is necessary, Senor General, you should leave us, and disband the army.” “Pay my soldiers,” fiercely responded Walker. “ 1 will pay them to the full demand,” was tho reply ; “ but you must leave the country. They shall be paid (eada nno sera yayada,)” he added, with emphasis, “but every hostile American must depart at once.” The face of tho American darkened, and uu expression of indescribable fierceness came over it. He drew his revolver, advanced a step, and, shaking it slowly in the faco of the President, replied, “ l remain anii 1 govern, Sir.” This was tho last interview between the two leaders, and may bo dated as the moment of Walker’s assumption of the supreme power and the beginning of the second war. Washington’s Farewell Address. The Philadelphia Bulletiu thus disposes of the story that tho original copy of Washing ton’s Farewell Address had been stolen from the State Department: The original draft was never in the posses sion of government. It was sent by Washington nt the time it was written, to be published in the newspaper then published in this city by Mr. Claypoole. The latter had it “set up” with out damaging the ‘copy.’ The mauuacript was carefully preserved by Mr. C., and in 1849 or ‘SO, it was offered at public sale in this city by the heirs of Mr. Claypoole. Congress entered into competition for the prize, but after a spir ited bidding it was knocked off to Jas. Lennox, Esq., of New York, for a sum exceodiug two thousand dollars. Mr. L. had some exact cop ies made for his friends, but the great origi nal still remains in his possession. We trust that this explanation will rcliove the patriotic indignation of those who evince so muoh anxie ty concerning the important document. Exemption Law of DC-ississippi. The following property is exempt from exe cution under the new Code of Mississippi: PERSONAL PROPERTY EXEMPT FROM EXECUTION. Art. 281. The following property shall be exempt from seizure under executiou or at tachment, to wit: 1. The tools of a mechanic necessary for car rying on his trade; 2.

Bail Bond Iron Mills. The following list of the Rail ltoad Iron Mills now in operation in the United States, will show that in its diffusion this important manufacture has already attained, in the ter ritorial sense term, a national import ance : The Tredgar, Richmond, Va.; Crescent, Wheeling, Va.; Washington, Wheeling, Vn.; Phoenixvillo, Penn.; Hough and Heady, Penn.; Montour, Penn.; Safe Harbor, Penn.; Lackn- Wftnn C. & I. Cos., Penn.; Pottsville, Penn.; Palo Alto, Penn.; Brady’s Bend, Penn.; Cosa lo, Penn.; Mt. Savage, Maryland; Rensselaer Iron Cos., New York ; South Boston Iron Cos.. Mass.; Trenton Iron Cos., N. J.; Lowelville, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; Wyandotte, Michigan; Chicago, Illinois; Covington, Kentucky. Only so short a time ago as the year 1840, no rails were manufactured in tho Unitod States. In 1840 but 10,000 tons were made. Seven years after that witnessed an increase of our manufacture to 150,000 tons. Another seven years of uubarrassed growth would sec this product more thnu doubled, and the Eng lish excluded forever from a market which they have plagued with depression and infla tions, and greedily harvested these thirty years. —— - ♦ New Mode of Removing Tumors. Dr. Simpson, of Edinburgh, has been expe rimenting ou the removal of tumors by a method novel in this country, lie introduces a hollow acupuucturo needle, or very line trocar, into their tissue, and injects a few drops of some irritant liquor—such as a solu tion of chloride of ziuc, perchloride of iron, or creosote. The effect has been to destroy the vitality of the tumors so treated, and they have been separated by a process of enuclea tion. Wo have seeu a somewhat similar plan adopted in Paris by M. Maisonneuve. He has slonder stylets made of a paste composed of flour, wator, mid choloride of zinc ; these are baked. A puncture is made in the tumor, the caustic stylet is inserted, broken off, and left. We saw several malignant tumors treated this way. and some cases in which a healthy gran ulating surface was left after the separation of tumors which had been destroyed in this man ner.—Medical Times. Gen. Santana, a great chief in Santo Do mingo, has been arrested and sent to the capi tal. It is said that he will be banished tho island. Civil war had again broke out, and, in consequence, martial law was proclaimed throughout the department of Seibo. The Spanish Consul had offended President Baez, who, in consequence, discarded him, and fa vored the envoy of France. GENERAL ITEMS. Col. Wm. E. Murphy, Mayor of Leavenworth city, lias received the appointment ol agent to the Pottowatomic Indians in Kansas ieriitoi^. It is said that Hon. James B. Clay, son of Henry Clay, lias declined the mission to Berlin, tendered him by President Buchanan. Two sons of Guezo, King ol Dahomey, one i of the most powerful chiefs of the Western | coast of Africa, have arrived in Franco to be ! educated. Those boys have been placed at | the Lyceu of Marseilles. Recent heavy rains at the West have caused the Arkansas river to overflow its banks, break ing away ttic levees at various villages, inun dating the whole lower country, anil destroy ing stock and plantation property to the amount of $50,000 or SIOO,OOO. The Girard College expands with each new year in its benevolent influences. Sixty ad missions for orphans have already hoen open ed, and it is stated twenty-three more will be made during the coming Summer. The col i lege will, when these additions are made, con tain four hundred pupils, the largest number it lias ever yet possessed. Late advices from Texas give cheering ac counts of affairs in the interior. The rivers are in good navigable order, the lands in fine condition for planting, and the season opening early. The work on the various railroads in process of construction, is being prosecuted with energy. The New York papers of the 14th give ac counts of another terrible accident, and loss of life, on the Pennsylvania railroad, Thursday last. It happened to an emigrant train, at Gillitzen station, which was run into by. a freight train, causing the death of six passen gers, and more or less injuring ten or twelve others. Sir Allen Park, an eminent English Judge, once said: “We speak of our civilization, our arts, our freedom, our laws, and forget entire ly how large a share is due to Christianity.— Blot Christianity out of Man’s history, and what could his laws have been—what his civil ization ?” The importation of spirits is within about one-third as great as the entire export of Sea Island Cotton, is but about one-third less than the export of tobacco for 1850, is more than three times s great as the entire export of rice for the same year, and greater by $500,- 000 than the entire sugar crop of the United States in 1850. The total entries of foreign dry-goods at New York for the four weeks just ended, are $5,092,007 greater than for February, LBSG; $0,008,849 greater than for the same period of 1855, and $4,451,022 greater than for 1854. The increase, says the Journal of Commerce, extends to every description of goods, but is comparatively greater in silks. The New York Post publishes a letter from Omaha, Nebraska Territory, which says that a Committee of Vigilance has been formed there to protect Squatter sovereignty against “Jump ers”—a class whose characters no definition can do justice to—and that the streets are fill ed with armed citizens, and adjacent towns had sent delegations offering assistance. Several Jumpers had already been tried, and forced to withdraw their claims. The New Orleans Crescent notices large and increasing shipments of cotton from that port direct to Continental Europe as proof of a growing disposition to throw off the depen dence on Liverpool. Several large shipments have recently been made from New Orleans to St. Petersburg. lion. Howell Cobb, Secretary of the Treasu ry, notifies holders of stock of the loans of the United States, that the department will purchase the same until the first day of June next, unless the sum of $1,500,000 shall be previously obtained, and will pay in addition to the interest accrued, a premium of 10 per cent, for the stock of 1842; a premium of 10 percent, for 1847-48; and a premium of 0 percent, for the stock of 1850, commonly called the Texas indemuity stock. Oue of the most common aud terrible kinds of punishment inflicted upon disobedient boys, in Africa, is to rub pepper in their eyes.— Their screams and yells under the operation arc savage beyond description, and it is a wonder that their sight is not entirely destroy ed. There lias never been known, however, a case where any permanent injury was inflicted in this way. Adult offenders are sometimes subjected to a still severer punishment. They are made fast on the roof of the house, and thoroughly smoked with pepper. Improvement in Printing Presses. The Scientific American announces that Mo ses S. Beach, Esq., of the New York Sun, has invented an attachment to steam printing presses, by which the sheet, after passing through the press and receiving an imprcssioii upon one side, is turned and without handling again passed through the press, and printel on its other side. The operation is thus de scribed : “There is no checking or reversing the ordi nary movements of the press. A double or twin set of fingers, which shut against each other, are so arranged as to grasp the back or tail end of the sheet before it leaves the print ing cylinder, aud after the first impression is taken. The sheet, thus held fast while tho cylinder continues to rovolve, is drawn again for the second impression, and thus the feed ing the sheet by hand the second time, or fifty per cent, of the labor now required, is saved, and, practically, the sheet is printed on both sides at once—two forms instead of oue being placed upon tho press.” The Scientific American thinks the invention tion will “make quite a stir among newspaper folks,” but in coming to this conclusion it seems to have overlooked the important fact that in very few, if any instances, are both forms of a newspaper printed at once on the same press. Before the invention can be made of general use in newspaper printing, the size of the presses now in vogue would have to bo doubled, so that both forms could be printed at once, and even then two copies would have to he printed on one sheet and afterwards cut.— The invention is a good one for book printing, where the sheet is turned on the same form, but is not likely to be made available for the benefit of the newspaper press until the opera tions cf feeding, flying aud cutting the sheets are performed by exuct machinery. —Baltimore American. Mr. Everett’s Mount Vernon Fund. Tho Boston Courier of Saturday says: The Mercantile Library Association have passed over to the Hon. Edward Everett sl,- 203 37, being the net proceeds of the sales of tickets to his Oration on the Character of Washington, on the 23d ult., in aid of the Mount Vernon fund. This is the largest sum yet received by Mr. Everett in any one con tribution to that fund, the next largest amount being $1,150, which was received at Brooklyn. | Mr. Everett lias delivered the oration eigh teen times for the exclusive benefit of the Mt. Vernon luiul, and is under engagement for | further repetitions of it. The amount thus i fur r..i-od by Mr. Everett is nearly $14,000. q'alOßruphod for the Daily Bud. From New Orleans.
