There is a lady in this county xvho says she would not be w ithont (lie Plaster for five hundred dollars a year. She was afflicted for some time with an enlargement of the spleen, which gave her great pain. The swelling and pain had extended up nearly to the armpit, and occasionally she could hardly breathe. 81 le was confined for a considerable time, during which she was attended by some of j our host physicians, but they gave no relief. She procured a j box of the Hebrew Plaster, and it relieved her almost immediate- j ly, and now she keeps a supply of it on hand constantly.— ■ These facts you are at liberty to uso as you think proper—they are substantially true. Respectfully, yours, &c., JESSE J. WELLS. Beware of Counterfeits and Base Imitations! Caution. —The subscribers are the only general agents in the ! Southern States for the sale of this truly valuable Plaster ; and j in order to prevent purchasers being imposed upon by a counter- ‘ feit article, sold in this city and elsewhere, for the genuine, they invite particular attention to the following marks of the genu ine : 1. The genuine is put up in smooth, engine-turned bottomed boxes, soldered in. 2.

Old Sultan. FROM THE GERMAN. A countryman once had a faithful dog; called Sultan, which had grown old in his service, and having, at last, lost all his teeth, was no longer able to seize either wolf or robber. “I’ll shoot that dog to-morrow,” said the mas ter to his wife, one day, as he stood at the cot tage door; he's of no use to us now. But the wife felt compassion for the faithful animal, and answered, “lie has served us well for many years —I think we ow r e him his daily bread for the short time he has to live.” “Thou’rt not over w ise, wife!” replied the man, “he hasn't a tooth in his head—he can’t defend the house at night, and if he has served us well, he has been well fed for it.” The poor dog lay basking in the sun close by, and heard all this with a sorrowful heart, lie had, for some time, been intimate with a w r olf that lived in the neighboring wood, and when evening came, he hastened to tell his friend of his approaching fate. “Listen to me, godfather,” said the wolf, when he had heard Old Sultan’s story : “Take heart; 1 can help you in this hour of need. My plan is this—when vour master and his w ife go with their babe into the hay field to-morrow morning, do you follow. The woman always lays the child in the shade, behind the hedge, while she is at work; you must lie down by it, as if to keep watch. Then, 1 will rush out of the wood, snatch up the little one, and run away, while you pursue me. Then I w ill let the child drop, and you must carry it back to its parents, who will believe that you have saved it, and. there fore, be so thankful to you, that, instead of kil ling you, they will love and honor you, and never let you want for anything its long as you live.’’ Ihe counsel pleased the dog, and it was planned, so it was performed. The countryman screamed w hen he saw the wolf running away with his child, but w hen Old Sultan brought it back unhurt, he joyfully stroked the faithful ani mal, and cried, ‘‘Not one of thy hairs shall be hurt,good fellow ! as long as thou livest thou shalt have food and shelter.” And then, turn ing to his wife, he said, “Go quickly home, and make some broth for Old Sultan, he has no teeth for meat, and put my pillow in his kennel, he shall have it for his bed !” From that time for ward, Old Sultan was as happy as he could be. Not long after, the wolf came to congratulate the dog that all had succeeded so well. “But, godfather,” added he, “you’li wink a bit now, I hope, when I want a fat sheep.” “Don’t reckon on that,’’ replied the dog, “ I must be faithful to my master.” The wolf, however, did not believe that he was in earnest, and so came slinking to the sheepfold that very night. But Old Sultan soon roused his master, who gave chase to the thief, and combed his hair very uncomfortably with the flail. “Only wait,you good for nothing dog!” cried he, as he scampered off—“you shall suffer for this.’’ The next morning the wolf sent the boar to summon the dog to the wood to settle their mis understanding. Old isultan accordingly sought someone to accompany him as his second, but could only get a cat, who had but three legs, on which she limped so miserably, that her tail stood straight up with the pain. As they came near the appointed place, the wolf and his se cond, who were already there, thought they were bringing a sword, for such the upright tail appeared to them; and w hen the poor three legged animal limped, they fancied she was picking up stones to fling at them. They were both so frightened that the boar hid himself among some bushes, and the wolf ran up a tree; and when the dog and cat reached the spot, they were surprised to And no one there. Pre sently, however, the cat saw one of the boar's ears, which were sticking out of the bushes, move, and mistaking it for a mouse,she sprang upon it,and bitit through in a moment. The boar ran off as fast as he could, screaming, “Look up in the tree, look up in the tree, the guilty one is hidden there !’ The wolf then came down so ashamed that he had proved himself such a coward, that he was glad to make peace w ith the dog. I Won't.—How full of ingratitude and bitter ness is this expression, “I won’t,”coming from the child who refuses to obey a kind parent’s command. “1 won’t!” said a child to his kind parent when he had been requested to do a little favor. That child is now despised by his associates and shunned by the virtuous and the good. “1 won’t!” was the exclamation ofa scholar, whose teacher had labored faithfully with him when he was asked to be punctual at school, and to commit his lessons more perfectly. That scholar is now employed as one ot the lowest servants in an extensive establishment. “I won't!” said a youth to his father, when requested to learn some honest trade. That youth has now scarcely a coat to cover his back. —Camden JoVKNAL.

Insane and Idiot Negroes.— The late cen sus confirms that preceding, by showing that idiocy and lunacy are more frequent among the blacks than the w hites, and among the free blacks than the slaves. We remember the* great uproar which John Quincy Adams made, when Mr. Calhoun, as Secretary of State in Tyler’s Cabinet, adverted to the fact with com ments. The fact was denied. The census was affirmed to be false. Renewed inquiries w r ere made. The fact finally ceased to be doubtful; and now, the last census finaily establishes the remarkable truth as originally asserted. The idiot and insane negroes bear the proportions of one to forty-three ot the whole number in Massachusetts. In South Carolina, they are as one in two thousand four hundred and forty! Now the question is what occasions this won drous difference \ In the North, ingenious ef forts are making to show that it. is not caused by the beaign influence of Slavery 5 which, as it subjects the w ild passions of the negro, and keeps him in proper subjection, (which is abso lutely necessary not less to bis happiness than his safety,) is undoubtedly the true secret of his superior sanity in South Carolina. One set of philosophers assert that it is due to climate, that of Massachusetts being quite too cool for Sambo, and heat being more congenial to bis nature. Another refines upon the matter, by saving that it is the superior intellectual devel opment of the negro at the North, which finally deprives him of all intellect. Credat Judceus! They have discovered that “a little learning is a dangerous thing!’’ They will find that a little freedom is still more dangerous to those who, by nature, can never make use of it. Let the North try the experiment fairly, give their negroes all a collegiate education, and give them perfect freedom, the freedom ofthe cities, and full possession of the public offices. When they have tried the experiment fully with their own negroes, it will be then time to meddle with ours.— Charleston News. Reception of Kossuth.— The arrangements fur the reception of the Magyar are progressing under the direction of the Committee of the Common Council, lie will arrive here proba bly about the 2d or 3d December, in the steam er Humboldt, and the Pilot who first boards her will convey a letter to Kossuth requesting him to remain for a day with Dr. Duane at the Quarantine. The Oregon steamer has been chartered by the committee, and the official delegation will proceed to Staten Island in her, and escort him to the city. Before landing at Castle Garden, the boat will proceed up the East and North rivers, receiving salutes from various points in the livers. Salutes will also be fired at Staten Island and the Government stations. The Mayor and Corporation will receive Kos suth at Castle Garden, and after the presenta tion of an address, he will review the troops on the Battery, t'.nd then entering a barouche, which will be surrounded by a guard of honor, consisting entirely of Hungarian refugees in uniform, a procession will be formed, and move up Broadway to Union Park, and return through the Bowery and Chatham street, to the City Hall, where he will receive the honors of a marching salute, and be thence conducted to the Irving House. On the day succeeding his arrival, the grand military and civic banquet will be given by the citv authorities, at the Irving House.— N. V. Mirror. Mormon Difficulties. The Washington correspondent of the New York Courier & Enquirer says : Dr. Bernhiescl, delegate from Utah, arrived here on Thursday kist. lie evinces mueh teeling at the re ports here prevalent to the disadvantage of Gov. Young and the Mormon community, lie denies that there is truth in any of them. The letter published in the Washington Union, and extensively circulated through other prints, which attributes to Gov. Young the most grow and vulgar denunciation of this Gov ernment, is said to have been written by a judicial of ficer of Utah. Dr. Bernhiescl says Gov. Young never used on any occasion such language as that Gen. Tay lor was dead and gone to ——. The speech in which he is charged with having perpetrated this scandalous indecency, was made on the 24th J uly, at some Mor mon celebration. The Dr. says he was present and heard all that passed, and not only was nothing said disrespectful to the memory of Gen. lay lor or the Government of the United 8t ties, but Gov. Young habitually and always expressed himself perfectly sat isfied with the course of Gen. T’s. administration to ward the Mormons, and declared that he was deeply sensible of President Fillmore’s kindness towards him self and his people. The delegate states also, that when he left the territory everything was perfectly quiet.— The blanks for taking the census of Utah had not ar rived, but theMirslial and his assistants had made the enumeration with the aid of manuscript forms, a slow 7 and difficult mode, but the work is said to have been performed with fidelity and accuracy. The popuDtion of the territory, according to Dr. 8.. is about 15,000. He would have brought the returns, but the Marshal teas engaged in transfering them to the printed forms, these having arrived alter what may Uc called the field work was completed. To Bake Applfa.— Sweet apples properly baked and eaten with milk are excellent. The best method of baking tart apples, is to take fairest and largest Lu size, wipe them clean ii thin skinned, and pare them if the skin is fbtek and tough; cut out the largest portion of the core from one end, and place the fruit on well glazed earthen dishes or pans with the pnd which has been cored upwards, ami fill the cavity with refined powdered sugar. ‘Then place them in the oven or other apparatus for baking until sufficiently cooked. Take ihem out, aud when cold they are perfectly del cious. Shifts of Politicians. — A politician, who has no resources of his own, always connects himself with some great temporary excitement just as a hungry shark rushes along in the wake of a ship, to pick up the damaged pro visions, amputated limbs, and even old shoes, that may be thrown overboard. Religion of Paying Debts.— if f* jllow ing item from a religious newspaper is a correct Jcfini lion of religion , we fear that many of our subscribers have become awfully irreligious, of kite, and need awak ening to a sense of their duty : ‘ Men may sophisticate as they please. They can never make it right, and all the bankrupt laws in the universe cannot m.iKe ii right tor them not to pay their debts. There is a sin in this neglect as clear and as deserving church dis cipline's in stealing or false swearing, lie who violates his promise to pay, or withholds the payment of a debt wheu it is in his power to meet the engagement, ought to be made to feel that in the sight of all honest men he is a swin dler. Religion may be a very comfortable cloak under which to hide; but if religion does not make a man ‘deal justly,’ it is not worth hav ing.’’ Cnrrfspnnienre. LETTER FROM AlGl’STl. Augusta, Nov. 20, 1851. The fire at Augusta—Reflections incident thereto. Dear Doctor: —You have doubtless received full particulars of the recent fire at this place, ere this, and it is simply with a view to tne en lightenment of the uninitiated, that 1 now ob trude the subject upon your notice. I, amor g others, have always been prompt to denounce ‘ idle spectators at a fire. I have ever looked upon a man who could stand with folded arms, j and gazing upon the ruin of his fellows, as ut- ! teriy void of heart and destitute of every gen erous impulse. 1 have known some wonderful admirers of the ‘sublime,’ perfectly enraptured with the‘majesty’ of fire and smoke belching i forth from their neighbors’ houses .and sweep- *1 ing destruction in their path. ‘How sublime ” \ exclaim these sentimentalists. There goes the costly edifice—thousands of dollars are fused to dross by a a single breath‘of the de vouring demon. There it totters—the fruits of years of ceaseless toil and care—the accumula tions of a life nearly spent—the hope of old 1 and young, is extinguished by that crash,— ‘How sublime!’ The expensive machinery, whose daily clank was music to the heart of the poor man, toiling for a family’s support —see I how it glows with heat and melts to ruin! Don't stand gazing at it, my man, go your way, your occupation is gone, your little ones may suffer; but is it not ‘sublime !’ ‘Ah ! look there ! see where the flame leaps up toward heaven, streaking with lines of gold the heav* ing mass of smoke. ‘How sublime !’ A hu man soul has leaped from its earthly tenement, and a human body lies buried beneath the ru-* ins! Shame upon such heartless gazers, such mawkish sentimentalists. I said that I was one of those who believed it to be the duty of every one to lend a help- ! ing hand during the awful calamity of a tire. But let no one expect other commendation, than that which must follow from the self-con viction of having done as he would be done by. ; For if ‘republics are ungrateful,’ individuals are equally so, and after all has been done that can be done, it is much more flattering to re- i ceive the condolence of kid-glove apostroplns ers of the sublimity of your ruin, than to extend a look, even, of kindness to those whose symp athies were only manifest in their exertions to avert the evil which afforded your friend sq j sublime a gratification. Heretofore, I have labored under a misappre hension with reference to lookers-on at a con- | flagration. I have lately discovered that they j are held in no mean appreciation. Haring nothing to divert their attention from the majes ty of the scene, and being neat and tidy, with al—not bedaubed with soot and du9t, they cer- I tainly are the proper persons to do the sym- 1 pathetic. ‘My dear sir, I am really sorry to 1 learn that you were a severe sufferer by the \ subl—destructive fire last evening. Any thing | 1 can do for you, (how r sublime) of course— , with pleasure,’ &c. &c. How genteel L—How t gratifying to one’s feelings—and bow fragrai 11 > j one’s nose I It is flattering, decidedly. Besides j any thing lie ‘can do’ —who knows what that j may be? Per Imps much—perhaps nothing, j At any rate, be bus done nothing yet; where as the other party, the working men at a fire. I have done all you expect of them. No one can doubt where the preponderance of favor must lie. For my own part, I am determined, whenever, in future, I discover one of this interesting class of personages at a fire, searching out the sublime points with his opera glass, he shall j h ive a fair showing. It is positively cruel to throw cold tcater uj*on his bright imaginings! j Let the walls of every house in the city crash, I but do not check the flames that are ‘taping up j to heaven,’ it is so ‘sublime !’ You will understand, dear Doctor, that I j have reference to no one in particular; but if j you should meet with specimens of the char- I acter I have depicted, let me beseech you —* I though your own house should be on fire-—do f not deprive them of the high gratification i which the sublimity of its destruction would I afford! SALAMANDER, Jr. Letter from Arkansas. Camden, Ark. Oct. 31, 1851. 1 Dear Doctor: —After a prolonged silence, J I once more address you from the wilds of 1 Arkansas. You, no doubt, would long ere J this, have had something in the shape of :> I communication from me, had it not been from 1 the fact that I was satisfied of your having your 1 hands full in the exciting election scenes I which have just, passed. I deemed any oommu- I ideation from me at such a time, a draw back I upon the arduous duties, which you had 1 assumed. I therefore have waited for the smoke f of political warfare to clear away, before trou- I Tiling you with airy of the items on matters | going on iu this portico of Uncle Sam’s domia- 1 ion. I may be claiming: too- much for Uncle Sam | or perhaps attempting to force upon him a state a he docs not want, after the recent elections 1 in this State. But lean assure yous it will ntti* E be nor is it the fault of Arkansas if it don t re- I main in this glorious Union. For although she 1 has sent a disunionist from this State, the poic- a er is so small that it will never jostle her aiv I inch. Nothing sir but faction—a determina-- fl lion to sustain party above principle was the’ I cause of the success (of what are termed the | diaunionists in this state.) They cannot be called J disunionists for They whip (as the saying is) the I devil around the stump.’ denying the fact, and 1 by such means together with faction, ruled the I day. But I assure you that Arkansas in my || opinion, is as good a Union State as Uncle Sam 1 has in bis dominions, the electing of a disun- i ionist to the contrary notwithstanding. She is | near enough out of the Union at present with- 1 out wishing to bo any further and don’t you 9 doubt her. For I assure she’ll stick to it and 1 ‘that with the tenacity of a Burgundy-pitch I plaster.’ With three cheers for glorious old jj Georgia, and three more (each) for old Sam F. I and James J. of Muscogee, I will drop politics, and talk to you about local matters. Well sir, Camden holds ber own very well, t* though improvement is slow, owing to short 1 crops.
