The Examiner argues that if England would savo
herself front so formidable a desertion she “ must
loose no time—not a week—in solemnly proclaiming
the total abolition of impressment by a short and easily
Intelligible Act,or Proclamation, which sliallbe foiVh-
with punted up in great numbers in every port of the
United Kingdom and of all our colonies; so that the
English sailor all over the world may at unco know,
that there U uotliiug for him to lose by continuing an

It adds: “ Unless the Crown lie now WvMd to
renounce this power, the .war with Husain. If U
any timo, will not only cause the loss to England of
a great part of her maritime population, but trill

The Examiner does not exaggerate the probability
of a war between Ureal Britain and America, grow
ing out of the contest with Russia, in case the former
shall attempt to revive the practice ol naval impress
ment. It is well known that this question was at
the bottom of tbo second war between England and
the United States. Nor was it settled by that war,
nor by the terms or peace with which it was conclud
ed. England, denying the right of expatriation,
claimed the privilege of Impressing the soils ol llrit-
aiu wherever they might be found. Her long con
tinued contest with Napoleon threw & large portion
of the carrying trade or the world into the hands of
Americans. Induced by lucrative pay, her sailors
and subjects sought protection and prollt under the
flag of the Union. When she attempted to search
.American vessels, to reclaim her seamed, she was
refitted. Should she again attempt it, again she will
be resisted ; and we may have a second war cry of
“ Free Trade nnd Sailors' Rights."

The friends oi the lion. Thomas Putsk—and there;
is no man in our midst who bus more numerous or
more devoted personal friends than he—will rejoice
to learn that he has received from tho President of
the United States, the appointment of Appraiser of
Customs for this port. He is a gentleman to whom
both Savannah ami the Democratic party owe much.
The former has no citizen who has more fuitnfully
devoted himself to her interests ; tho latter has no
member who has been more uniformly true to its
principles. Being, wc believe, not ovi-rbiirthoned
with this world's goods, not many are who possess
Tom. Pl iisk’s generous spirit—men of all parties will
rejoice that he bus received this ollice.

Willi*. Esq., mude some Inti resting historical remarks
in relation to lii-t experience during his sixty years
connection with the press. He worked in Court
street when u youth, in the same ollice hi which Ben
jamin Franklin once labored as a printer. His futlicr,
Nathaniel Willis, published the Independent Chroni

about lilty years ago, established tlm Eastern Argils
in Portland. Nearly forty years ago he started the
Hostuu Recorder, and when he wt
of age, commenced the public
Companion.” All three of those journals are now
published.
Mr. Willis gave some excellent ndvice to his young
friends present in regard to their profession. III,.
comments upon the change* he hud witnessed during
his life, were of on interesting character. He closed
by wishing all present the choicest blessings of lienv
on in tliut branch of labor nnd toil to which they
were devoted. Fov the Itciieflt of ouv distant venders

at the railroad station in that city, whilst ubout to

a light mulatto, tint huh of a Virginia planter of the

The people of Dittshnrgh are indebted to him for the
llr-t public hath* established ill that city. Until the
Supreme Court of Deimsylvanin decided that people
of color were not legal voters, Vn.-hon enjoyed the
right of Hiiffrage. In 1830 he .-mpported a gentleman
for the Assembly, upon the ground that hu was a
“ fashionable mail," the meaning of which was that
he bought hi* soap at Vushon's shop.
On one occu*iuii Va*hon visited trie Fall* of Niag
ara, and there met with u DitUhurgh acquaintance,
who introduced him t-* a friend from llocheater, X.
Y\. as “ Colonel Vasltoti, of the Mexican army.”—
Shortly afterwards Vnslion met tins gentlemen in
Rochester, who paid him great attention, introduced
him to the leading notabilities of that city, uud the
Dittshnrgh bat her was for some day* the lion of the
place. Vn-lion kept his own counsel, and on his re
turn to DitL-huigli related the story with great glee,
always winding up with the remurk, " See what a
thing this prejudice of color i-! As long as they
thought mu a Mexican colonel 1 was good enough

Va-li'-n considered himself as a sort of Western
rival of the hte Thomas S. Aimers, of this city, whom
he described us "a very pompeuiis man."—JJizurre.
Free Negroes In Mlxxourl.
A case was recently brought before one of the Su
perior Courts of Mi—ouri, in which it was sought to
expel a mulatto from the State under a statue nl
1817, which declares that no free negro or mulatto
shall Dome to that State under any pretext whatever.
It was contended in reply that this statute was un
constitutional, and that Missouri was hound by her
own solemn compact and agreement, hy which she
bad pledged herwll never to no** any law prohibit
ing any citizen of any one of the States of this Union
from emigrating to Missouri, and enjoying nil tho
privilege* ol citizens of like class iu this Stale. The
court suxtuined the motion and dismissed the pro
ceeding*, declaring that the Legislature of this State
had no right to disregard and violate the solemn
compact entered into by Missouri in order to be ad
mitted as a State of the American confederacy ; and
therefore that the act prohibiting free negroes and
inulattocs from emigrating to the Statu was uncon
stitutional and void.—Unit. A inn icon.

the following description of an Illinois farm :
“The cars are now passing an immense corn He'd,
of Jiftn n hundred arret, within one enclosure. Think
of Unit I It. is owned by Mr. John Alexander, of
Sangamon county, who has 3.000 acres of pruire.
here, iu one lardy, 1,800 of which is in corn. His
business is stock feeding. To raise his crops and feed
them out, he employs about thirty men, ami thirty
head of horses, per year. His sales of stock, the
past year amounted to over $30,000. Eight year*
-incc, he had about ?’>00 iu his pocket, and bought
-oiue of this laud. Now it is paid for, and he is
worth his thousands. Hero is u specimen of Illinois
farming.
Mr. Alexander’s profits will bo immense this sea-
son. as corn is selling at 56 cents a bushels at St.
Louis.
The Treasurer of Mississippi, in a report to the
Legislature, states tliut the balance iu the Treasury
on tim 1st of January was $204,524.02, all ol which,
however, with the exception of $170.31, belonged to
various trust* controlled by the State. In order to
inert the current drafts on the State Treasury, the
Treasurer suggests that the Trust funds ho used, to
be reimbursed when future taxes are collected. He
ulso proposes a change in the mode ol taxing slaves
—not, a* heretofore, a per capita tax, hut nn ad valo
rem tax of one twentieth of one per ccut. which
would yield $125,000.

impression made on the extremities of the nerves
communicating with the skin I* transmitted to the
brain at 1rate ol ubout one hundred ami ninety-live
feet in a second, a rate of travelling which vuriesnu*
either in dilTcrcnt person* or at dillerent times of tli
day. Arrived nl the brain, nu interval of one tenth
of a secon I passes before the will,even when the at
tentiuu i( strung to the uttermost, is able to issue iu
command to the nerve*, that their respective muscle
shall execute a certain motion. This interval varies
with the person and with the degree of attention :
when Ulh is lax.it is very irregular, when fixed very
regular. The order issued by the brain probably
travels to the muscle with ntxuit the same speed as
the impression to the brain. Finally, about onc-htin-
dredth of a second elapses after Lite receipt of the
command before tho mnsclo i* in action. In all,
thereh r , from the excitation of tho sensitive nerves
of tin- B'tin till the moving of the muscle*, one and n
quart) r or two-tenth* of a second ate consumed. To
take tho maximum difference available iu the human
body, it is found that intelligence from the great t>

oml l»t-r than when umanating from the ear or the
cheek.
