It is a point df land, between the Des Moines and the Mississippi rivers, ‘extending from the mouth of the Des Moi nes nearly or quite to the head of low er rapids of tlje Mississippi. . The Half-Breed land 19 stated to bo in a very peculiar conditibn, unlike that of any other tract within tho limits of tho United Sfatcs or their ter ritories. It is’not . within the organized limits of any State .or territory.—It is not public land, subject to tho disposal of congress, nor is it Indian land. It is subject to no established community, civilized or savage—yet it is inhabited. The town of Kcokuck, at the foot of the rapids, is already growing intd importance, aud will, at no distant day, become a city. At low water, it is tho limit df steamboat navigation, and the point of transhipment of all the trade with the upper Mississpipi. .If the nortljen boundary of Missouri had extended to the Mississippi in a straight line it would have included this country wfthiu that State. By the Indiau treaty of 1824, between the U. States and the Sacs aud Fox Indians, those tribes ceded to the Uuited States “all their lands within the limits of the State of Missouri,” in cluding within the lines of discription, this coun try, tfhich, tho treaty stipulated, “is iutcuded for the use of the half breeds belonging to the Sac.aud Fox nations; they holding it, however by the same title, arid in the same nianucr, as other Indian tribes arc held. These half-breeds f6rm no-nation or tribe, aud do not live together as a community. The laud is said to be among the finest and most valuable tracts iu the west.— Balt. Am.

Shocking explosions.—Another grindstone late ly exploded at Nortliamton, Mass, and the whole concern, crack, strap and handle .blown sky high —A beer bottle'also burst in an oyster cellar No. 1370 Duane-sticet, New York, carrying with it the sum total of an honesty Irishman’s nether olfac tories. and doing other serious damages upon the premises—and last, though not least, a party of “National republicans” were blown at the Masonjc Hall in the same goodly city, while in solemn con clave, for the purpose of securing Mr. Clay’s elec tion. This latter eruption was only collateral and preliminary to the main catastrophe, for Mr. C. and his whole party will be in the air very soon—dang ling like the new Comet, alter Davy Crockett’s operation unit—headless and tailless—a scattered constellation of decapitated Jack O’lantcrns.— Camden Journal. Water oh the Brain.—In 17C9, Dr. Ilnles Was on a visit to Coik, when he was seized with a vio lent fever, which* for some lime interrupted thq course of usefulness in which he was engaged, 'll was said, that his physician treated him injudi ciously, and gave him too much laudanum. He returned to Killesandra, against their advice, but he was weak and relaxed, unable to make any ex ertion of mind or b ody, nhd a deep depression hung on his spirits. Ilaviug,"however, read somwhere of a great author,, who when in it fever', had taken laudanum, on which fire had flashed front Iris eyes, (circumstauces that had occurred to himself,) and that lie had recovered his health, by constantly pci- serving in great exercise, he determined to try the experiment himself, and accordingly walked.every day in his garden, with such rapidity and exer tion, that he was frequently obliged to change Iris clothes from heat. Ode day while so employed a sudden and great discharge of water ran from • his nose, and he instantly felt as if-a great weight was removed from his brain.' The grateful and happy sensation was such that he was hardly able to get into the house, where it Was .sonic time before he could cofbpose his feelings of joy. From that time he felt his mental faculties almost clearer than they had ever been., He mentioned the Strange cirauin- stance to many physicians, who said that his disor der apparently had been water on the brain, but they had never known a similar instance of rccov- .ery.—British Magazine. • . Very Singular.—We. see it noticed, says ,thb Hagerstown Free Press, in one of the western pa pers, as a curious circumstance, that every blade on the stalks of oats of this year’s growth had on i: the letter B. We had the curiosity to examine several and found it to be true. The paper to which We had reference says, that this freak of na ture had created some alarm, inasmuch as the knowing ones had fouud out that the letter was the initial of Blood and Black'Hawk.

Founder in llorsts, by Turkish Veterinary Sur- geons. , Ancient Chelerdou, Kadi Kinny, April Si, 1832. Dear Sir—There are few sailors who are ‘judges of horse flesh," and I make no pretentious to that sort of knowledge. I am going, however,- to relate what 1 have seen ; if it is worth knowing, it is well: if not, it is the easiest thing in, the woild to throw this in the fire. Sometime ago I bought a very good horse in tho bazaar, forwHich I paid 900 piastres, or 50 dollars. Eotrie thoughtffie'was dear, at that price, as you may for five or six hundred piastres, buy here such a "horse as no gentleman need be ashamed to mount; however. I was much pleased with my batgaiu. On my removal from Buyurdine to tins place, the horse was rode very hard, and ori his ar rival at Top Thana, a distance of 14 or 15 miles, was permitted to stand in the cold wind and rain two hours, without being rubbed do wn tir walked about; consequently be becamefoundtred in the right fore leg, 20 that he could scarcely walk. I Sent for a Turkish farrier; the one who attends the Sultaii’s" horses, lie immediately .pronounced the liorse foundered, and said he must be bled in the inside of the diseased leg. He put a nipper on his rinse to keep him steady, then lookup the left leg, and crossing it over the right, gave it to au at tendant; he then struck liis lancet into the vein a. little abqve the fetlock joint, and took from it about three and a half pounds of blood—the vein bled very freely: He now.said he had taken enough; he then went in die very opposite side of the leg, and slicking his lancet into a vein above the knee joint, a single drop of blood exuded, and both that and the first opened vein instantly ceased bleeding. There may be no novelty in this, but it certainly astonlihed mb to find, that opening two veins In the Same limb would stop both from blee ding; sufch; however, is the fact, ibi I witnessed it. • He desired that the horse should rest the.next dayi that Ire should then he lode with great violence ’until he was in a profuse perspiration, the deceased^ limb then to be rubbed dry, and walked about un til cool, and recovered with blankets ;„and the sanie process to be repeated next day, which was done, and all lameness from .that time disappear ed—the horse the third day after the first rubbing was perfectly well;' An trish hoist—a peg. /oirer.—His Excellency James Hamilton Govenorof S.

Cure for the Gout.—Tho Notizia del Gioruo of Rome gives circumstaucial details of several ex periments. most successfully made on persons of every age and both sexes iu that capital, for the ra dical cure of the gout, rheumatism, sciatica and dis eases, which have been hitherto thought incur a We. The receipt consists iu administering to the patient 48 doses of warm water, each dose to weigh 8 ounces, and to be taken every quarter of ah hour during tho paroxysm of the dis'order. The result of this potiou^of whjjh the effect i3 diuretic, aud excites perspiration, is obtained at the tenth or eleven, amr suiuiumcs :n me m■■ f physicians say, that although this quantity of drink may occasion nausea and vomiting, the doses should not, however, be diminished; and the remedy, which is cooling antiphlogistic, is recommended by Doctors Ressi and Tom;tssiiri.— Anolo-German Advertiser. Ncid Variety in the Human Species.—Winkle- man had.perceived that the ear was invariably pla ced muqh Higher in the Egyptian statues than the Greek;' but he attributed this singularity to a sys tem irithS Egyptian artists, of elevating the ears of their kings, in the same way as the Grecian artists had exaggerated the perpendicularity of the facial angel in the heads of their gods. M. Bureau de le Malic, ori his visit, in May, 1831,to the Museum at Turin, so rich in Egyptian monuments, was par ticularly struck with this peculiarity in all thcslat- ucs of I’hia, Meris, Osmandyas, Khmnses, and Sesostris. Six mummies, recently arrived from Upper Egypt,-were at that time under examination, and afforded him tho means of ascertaining wheth er this special character of the higer situation of orifice of the ear really existed in the skulls of the natives of the country. lie was much astonished to find ip these, as well as in many skulls from the same place, of which tht-facial angle did not.differ from that of tne* European race, that the orifice of the ear. instead of being, as with us, on a line with the lower part of the nose, was placed on a line with the centre of the eye.—Ijie head, in the re gion of the temple, was also much depressed, and the trip of the skull elevated, as compared with those ofE-uropeffroin one and a half to two inches.

Whilst his wife was engaged in bathing her infant,' another child, a few j cars.oldcr, took tho bill and tore it to pieces. The father, entering at the’ moment, became so enraged, that he gave the child a violent blow ou tho head;'audit fell lifeless to the ground. The mother dropt her infant into the bathing tub, aud ran towards her elder child, but h'er assist tanco was of no avail,', fu her despair, sjfe forgot the younger child for a - fetv minutes, aud re turning to the tub fouud her infant drowned.— English paper. ,j * protection of manufactures, is an exercise of pow ers, not granted by the constitution, but a plain, and palpable violation of the true intent, mean ing and spirit thereof; that the. said acts cannot be justified under the power of regulating com merce with foreign nations, since to regulate is not to destroy; aud the principle of a substantive protection to domestic manufactures assumes, and in some instances, exerts the power of impo sing a duty, which effectually prohibits the impor tation of foreign fabrics of like kind with those which are thus protected, and to this extent de stroys foreigu commerce, instead of regulating it. That they cannot tic supported under the power to lay and collect duties, since this power was given solely for the purpose of enabling the gov ernment to raise a revenue, which, should be ad equate to its wants, and the amount of revenue which is raised by these protective duties,, very- far exceeds the legitimate wants’ of the govern ment—aud that the attempt to vindicate the ex ercise of a power to impose a burthen bn the la bor and industry of one portion of the people of the,United States for the benefit of another por tion of the same people, under the power to pro vide for the common defence and general welfare of the United States, is even more alarming than the direct results of the system itself, because that is to ascribe to congress a power to- do whatever in their judgment may cdnducc to the commop dofence anil general welfare, apd thus to invest* the National Legislature with.unlimited, (because merely discretionary) power over the rights and liberties of tho people of Georgia. 8. That the people of Georgia are sincerely attachcd to the Federal'Constitution and to the* union of these states, which it creates arid guar antees—that they consider it as a"precious inher^ itancc received from their fathers, which it is the duty of patriotism to .maintain and defend, and estimate it above all price, save that of liberty: that they arc ever ready to peril ih'eir fortunes and their lives in its defence, and would deeply deplore its dissolution, as an event alike inauspi cious to themselves, and to the cause of civil liber ty throughout the woild. That actuated by these feelings! aild oven amid the difficulties. whiAi be set then), uot despairing of the Republic, they Will .still persevere in the use of every proper and efficient mentis for t[ic peaceful adjustment of this unhappy controversy, which may be within their power as one of tho sovereign members of this confederacy, or which may result from consulta tion aud conference with their.sister states, hav ing a common interest with them in this 'matter. That taking the payment of the national debt, as the period after which the present tariff of duties, so far as - it transcends the purposes .of revenue, and is designed for the protection of domestic manufactures, cau find no plausible pretext iu our cotistitujional charter, they are-willing to wait until Congress shall have full time deliberately to determine whether they will reduce and equalize the. duties on foreign imports’, so as to bring the income of the government within the limits of re venue, and to collect the contributions of our cit izen’s on tho principles of just taxation. That having regard to the iutercstsof those whose cap ital has been invested in manufactures, during the progress of that course' of legislation of which they complain, they are willing that the reduc tion and equalization of duties which they ask thrc3 or fonr months.

A murderer, men tioned by Mr. Combe, had dreapied of committing murdersome years before the event took place* But more remarkable still are. those instances, many of them authentic, in which# dream has given no tice of an event which was occurring at the time, or occurred'soon after. The following story has been long rrlecittbned in Edinburgh, and there sqcmsno reason to doubt its authenticityA clergyman, had come to tliis city from a short distance; in the country; and jvas’^ sleeping at an inn, wften he dreamed ofsccingha fire, and one of Iris diildrcn in the midst of it. He riwoke with the imricssion, and instantly left town on Ids return home. : When he arrived witbio sight ufhis house, he fouid it on fire, and got there in time to assist in saving one of his chrildren.'who in the alarm and confusion had been left in a situation of danger. Without call ing in question the possibility of supo’rnttural com munication in such cases, this striking oecuiitnce; ofwhichl believe there is little reason t* doubt, the truth, may perhaps bp accounted for ocsitiiple and natural principles. Let us suppose hat the gentleman had a servant who had shown greit care lessness in regard to fire, and had often cuen rise in his mind.to a strong apprehension that In might set fire to the house. His anxiety might be in creased by his being from home, and thi same circumstance might make the servant stil more #are*ess. I,et us further suppose that the jentje- man, before going,10 bed! had? in .addition "to Iris anxiety, suddenly recollected that there w^s on that day, in the neighborhdtid of hi* house, sono fair, or periodical merry-making, from which tbe servant wa> very likely to return hoaie in a state of intoxication. It was most natural that these m- pressions should be embodied into i .dream -of l*is bouse being on fire, and that the samecircumstcmfb.' might lead lo the dream being firifillsd.
