Editors: We are aware that any further notice of the proceedings of cer tain persons, who have attempted to make themselves so conspicuous in opposition to this Lottery, is calculated to give conse quence where it has never existed, and per haps never may exist if dependant on any acts of theirs ; vet, from our own respect for the public confidence which has been ex tended towards us in the management of this Lottery, we cannot refrain expressing, in this public manner, our humble hut hearty thanks, •mil to repeat the assurances already given to the public, of the strictly correct and honora ble manner in which it is the design of the managers to continue it throughout. So far as regards the statements which we have seen recently published in a card, by the individuals above alluded to, in the En quirer, we are perfectly wilting for them to pass for what they are worth; we feel that we should be degrading ourselves bv paying any further notice to it, we shall not regret •the loss ol confidence, of any individual whom these gentlemen may be able to convince, espeeialy where they are known. Respectfully, DILL, BUCHANAN & Cos. From the Baltimore Republican. It is must gratifying to note the improve ments daily making in the internal commmii 'cations throughout the country. There is a roused energy which is attracting the capital and enterprise ol the people to the completion v ot old and the projecting of new routes for •canals and railroads. The advantages even tually to be leaped hv the country from these increasing facilities of travelling and internal trade are incalculable. It will not he long in deed, before one great connecting line of rail roads will he established between the northern and southern hounds of the Union. The Rich mond “Whig” thus speaks in reference to one of these improvements: “ The improvements in the South are pro gressing with great rapidity. We learn that •on the Wilmington and Roanoke railroad, passengers are conveyed in the cars 7 miles at one end and 12 at the other, and that in May next, the enterprising engineer (W. j Gvvynn, Esq.) expects to have GO miles com pleted, and that in the course of the year, 100. So that passengers will he carried from New York to Augusta, Geo. in three days. By lhc mail route it now requires seven days to traverse the route—by the route now adver tised, but four. These are cheering indica tions of the indomitable spirit of our Southern friends —They are binding the Union to gether by the strongest ties.” C (> M 31 E II C I A 1/. l’cr slip from iho office of the New York Daily Ex press, January 18. MONEY MARKET—CITY NEWS. The improvement in the Cotton market in Europe, lias not only caused a corresponding rise in the article on this side, but has had a happy effect on our shipping. Freights to Liverpool have advanced to 5-S a 3-4,1. on Cotton, higher than it has stood for a year past, and ships take up freely. For France freights are aho better. Considering the season of the year, commonly one of the dullest, there is evidently a better feeling, and •in many articles besides Cotton there is a good deal doing. A number of merchants from Mississippi have made their appearance here, and have purchased freely of Dry Goods. Our rivers continue open. Steamboats run regularlv up the Connecticut and the Hudson. Indeed they have not been discontinued at any period on the latter. It is generally understood that the United States Rank took about 150,000/. sterling hv the last packet, at 10 per cent., which is a arirte beyond the rates of the last ship. The Post Notes sold by the Bank last year, made payable at a year, payable in London, will fall due soon, and these remittances are no .doubt to meet them. The Bank will gain full two per cent, bv the operation. The last of June and Ist of May last, when they sold these Post Notes, Exchange was 12 per cent, and even higher. The whole transac tion, while it gave relief at the time to the .merchants, will prove not only a judicious but profitable investment to the Bank. The last Boston Atlas says, “ We are au thorized to state that the Bills of the Middle- Hex Bank, at East Cambridge, are no longer (taken at the Suffolk Bank. We do not un derstand that the Bank has failed, but there were rumors to that effect last night. This Is the institution of which the Hon. William Parmenter was lately President.” The following is a copy of a petition now in circulation, and which though just out, has already met with very many most respectable signatures : To the Hon. the Senate and House of Assembly of the State o f IVeto York : The Memorial of the subscribers, inhabitants of the City of New York respectfully re present, That during the last year of commercial embarrassment and distress, they have good reason to believe there are many instances where some of the Banking Institutions ot our city have improperly deviated from what has heretofore been considered the course marked out by their charter. The undersigned therefore ask of your Honorable bodies, to take early and efficient means for bringing to light any abuses which may have been practised by the Officers or Directors of said Institutions, to the end that the guilty may he punished, and the innocent relieved from the charges of a violation of the privileges granted to them bv the People. Hoping by a thorough and impartial in vestigation, the State may so improve the ad ministration of our banks, as to produce that harmony and regularity winch is vita! to the interests of the whole -immunity. •V. F. and Erie Rail Road. —We are glad to see this subject brought before the Common Council. We trust that body will unite cordially in a vote recommending this work to the special care of the Legislature. Tt ie great works of Internal Improvement are all but completed in Pennsylvania. The rev enue derived from them is already sufficient to pay the interest on the debt, as well as all the expenses of the State. What is the state of New York doing? Compartively to her resources, nothing. We hope the present Legislature will be marked by acts of enter prise, in the way of State Improvements, that will redound to the honor and prosperity of the State. STOCKS.

Messrs Editors —ln the record of the tempera hire and general slate of the weather at Columbus, which I shall endeavor to observe with the strictest accuracy, I design to mark the accompanying fffjcts, of the frequent vicissitudes incidental to this latitude, on the health of the city, in connection with its topo graphical peculiarities, &c. That diseases may, and do occur in this city, whose characteristic symptoms, influenced by local agents, ar< materially different from those of the surrounding country, even during ihe same seasons of the year, in my opinion, there can be but little doubt. A thorough knowledge, therefore, of the effects of those atmosphe rical and local influences combined, whose fruitful sources of new and strange appearances of disease are, in general, so abundantly proven, must be essentially important, in leading the practitioner to correct conclu sions in the treatment and cure of those diseases. In this record, my notes and observations will he confined alone to the city, aiul mv object will extend so far as to give a simple record or history of medica* acts, as connected with the character of diseases,which may occur, under various circumstances, during the different seasons of the year. As to the treatment, which, in my own judgment and tinder the various characteristics which diseases may assume, I may deem proper to pursue, it will form no part of this record, but perhaps, should there be matt.-r of sufficient importance, may form the subject of a separate communication in another diicction. The general health of the city, at present, is very line, perhaps it has never been belter, and the weather has been invigorating and delightful for the season. MEDICUS. COLUMBUS PRICES CURRENT.

JAMES B. BROWN. Sumpter county, January 9.1838. 51 4t A CARD. fg| xHE undersigned gave notice to the public, in the _BL Enquirer of 30th Nov., that they were not in any wise concerned in the Fort Gaines Literature Lottery, advertised by Dill, Buchanan Si Cos. They wished merely to exonerate themselves from all suspi cion ol having connived at any unfair business, and also to keep free from any embarrassment which a cannection in that affair might subject them to. It appears that Messrs. Dill, Buchanan & Cos. have thought proper, by an advertisement, to denounce the course we have pursued as “ illiberal,” and we cast back upon them their own term of” illiberally.” XVe should be very sorry indeed if our character for libe rality. public spirit. paVF.tism or honesty, should suffer by comparison with that of John Dill or James Bu chanan. It was not our intention to comment, in any way, upon the scheme of the Lottery which we be lieved to have been brought forward by the parties, more for the purposes of pecuniary profit than for the benefit of the Fort Gaines Academy. Justice to our own reputation, when accused of illiberalitv,forbids us to remain silent, as regards our services not being ” essential to the complete success of the Lottery, or our responsibility necessary to guarantee the payment of all prizes drawn.” We. fully believe that it will not require any great responsibility to meet the pavrnont of all the prizes which U'ill he drawn. And as John Dill, the Manager, and his co-adjuiors have passed such !rgh encomiums upon Col. John Dill , the Treasurer, for his business character and known responsibility , per haps Col. John Dill will turn round and vouch for the integrity of plain, simple John Dill, the Manager.— Such a certificate would probably place the Lotterv on the most creditable footing. were it not known that Col. Dill, the Treasurer, vnd John Dill, the Manager, were one and the same person. With respect to the scheme of the Lottery, which shows, on its face, sufficient to deter any one of reflecting minds from adventuring in it, as there is no limit specified to the number of tickets to be sold, while the prizes are limited. Such seems to he the character of the Lottery of which Col. Dill is Treasurer and Manager ; for it rerms that the balance of the company do not sav a word about their responsi bility. but place it all on Col. Dill. The next enquiry is, who is the company attached to the commissioners, Dill & Buchanan. It is not either of the commission ers appointed by the Legislature, in 1831, Delony, Wilson or Prescott, for all have denied being con cerned in. or having ever been consulted about the scheme of the Lottery ; but a man by the name of Jo nas Dlalt. a stranger in this vieinitv, uninterested in the fate of the Academy, but who is said to be well versed in Lottery business, having had great experi ence in that line, in Milledgeville. Pensacola, and ofher cities in the United States, such, at least, he is represented to be by Col. Dill, and from such facts we draw our inferences, that the Lotterv is more for pecu niary interest than for the benefit of the public. XV. XV. PRESCOTT, S. V. WILSON. Fort Gaines, Dec. 18. 1837. 51 It JOHN E. BACON & Cos. AGENTS FOR THE SALE OF THE INDIAN’S PANACEA, HAVE just received a’fresh supplyol this valuable remedy for the cure of Rheumatism, Scrofula or King’s Evil, Gout, Sciadca or Hip Gout, Incipient Cancers, Salt Rheum, Siphilitic and Mercurial dis eases, particularly Ulcers and painful affi ctions of the hones. Ulcerated Throat and Nostrils, Ulcers of every description, Fever Sores, and Internal Abscess es, Fistulas, Piles, Scald Head. Scurvy, Biles, Chro nic Sore Eyes, Erysipelis Blotches, and every variety of Cutaneous Affection, Chronic Catarrh, Headache, proceeding from vitiation: Affections of the Liver; Chronic inflammation of the Kidneys and General De bility, caused by a torpid action of the vessels of the skin. It. is singularly efficacious in renovating those constitutions which have been broken down by injudi cious treatment, or juvenile irregularities. In general terms, it is recommended in all those diseases which arise from impurities of the blood, or vitiation of the humors, of whatever name or kind. Some of the above complaints may require some assistant applications, which the circumstances of the case will dictate ; but for a general remedy or Purijt cator to remove the cause. The Indian’s Panacea will generally be found sufficient. The following certificates, out of hundreds similar which might be procured, are given to show the effect of the Indian’s Panacea, in the various complaints therein mentioned ; and also to exhibit in the most sa tisfactory manner its superiority over the syrups in common use. Charleston, Nov. 15, 1831. During the last, winter and spring, 1 was afflicted with a very severe and distressing Rheumatism, occa sioned by exposure in bad weather. I now take great pleasure in stating, that six bottles of Indian Pana cea, restored me to perfect health, and I confidently recommend it to all similarly afflicted. JOHN FERGUSON, King st. Charleston, July 12, 1831. I was afflicted four years with an ulcer in the leg, occasionally accompanied with erysipelatious inflama tion and an excessive pain in the leg and ancle joint. Several eminent Physicians exerted their skill upon it. but without permanent benefit. In this case, five bot tles of the Indian Panacea made a perfect cure. MARGARET A. WEST, Market st. 121.
