The first announce- i mem appeared m the Sentinel, as fblfuvs: H Mermaid, and no mistake. —Avery gen ral disbelief in the existence of the Mer maid is likely to receive a severe shock trout the truth of the following statement: A creature in every respect answering the usual j description of the ‘sea woman, 5 was caught lately in the salmon nets at iionneraw Point, near Falian, county Donegal. .She is at pre sent under the protection of a gentleman of that neighborhood, who has kindly permitted the country people, who arc flocking in him- j dreds about the place, to ‘see and believe.’j The members of the Londonderry National] History Society, we understand, are to inves tigate this extraordinary phenomenon, for the | purpose of sending an immediate report of 1 their observations to the British Association, sitting at Newcastle. We understan I that. if the novel monster should survive the sudden i change in her situation, she vvili he sent to ! Viscount Melbourne as a present lo the Queer.; if not, the body will be preserved in spirits, and will grace the new forming mu seum of our local society. A minute descrip- j tion shall be given in our next. The efifecl of this notice was that at least i a fourth of all the inhabitants of Derry, who could afford the expense, proceeded in a body | to lionneraw where they were admitted to an inspection of tiie singular creature; which is thus described in the Fermanagh Journal. ! The Mermaid. —This is certainly a sea woman, and has such ail expression of intel ligence in its countenance that we are abso- j lulely inclined to believe that it is a creature j of reason rather than of instinct. We do not j mean to insinuate that it has any notion of j abstract ideas; but the fact is, that there is i an appearance of confusion about it that would seem to indicate sentiments of shame, j fear and supplication. Ii weighs about sc-j venty pounds, and is altogether human in its i outward organization from the head to the j navel, where the fish begins to develope itself, I and the remainder is formed very like tfie ex tremiiy of a large dolphin. The skin of the face and the breast is a whitish brown—the eyes are black and the nose purely aquiline; nail its eyebrows, lips and chin, are models for a sculptor. The hair is long and thick, and the creature’s principal amusement seems to he to stroke it downward with her webbed, but otherwise very perfect fingers. It. looks to lie twelve or fourteen years old ; and re- j girds people occasionally as if it had an in- j clination to speak; and we are solemnly of! the opinion, when in its native element, it j makes its wishes known through the medium ; of its tongue. Altogether, indeed, it is the j most singular being we have ever witnessed, | and excites feelings in die breast of behold- i ers, at least as much akin to awe as to curi- I osity. Can it have a soul, and be an ac- j countable creature? At ail events we shall ! examine it closely this week, and report par-j licubrs. We shall look with great anxiety for our next files of Irish papers, on the receipt of which we trust to be able to furnish the rea der of The Examiner with some fuller infor mation in relation to this surprising phenome non. From tiie New Ycrk Courier. Superior Court—Before Chief Justice Jones. Saturday, O t. 20. Luke Tiernan ct ah. vs. John Simpson, survivor, &.c. of Matthew Laughlin and \Y in. Head. This was an action on two promissory notes given in 1825 by the defendants, dealers in Selma, Ala., to tho plaintiffs, merchants, doing business in Baltimore, Md. The de fendants pleaded principally the statute of limitations, and the plaintiffs pleaded anew promise, under the following circumstances : ; After the notes were barred by the statute, Mr. James C. Barry, at the request of the ! plaintiffs, took the notes to Selma, and pre sented them to Mr. Laughlin, (the partner ship having since been dissolved J ami all the defendants residing there. Mr. L. re gretted nis inability to meet them, but sai l it was a just debt and should be paid. This conversation took place at the tavern after dinner, but Mr. L. although very fiequentlv drunk, was sober at that time, and perfectly understood what he was doing. At a sub sequent conversation, he repeated his pro mise to pay the notes. The witness after wards find a conversation with Mr. Sfitspson, but what transpired was not then shown in. evidence. The ilefeuff-int produced a mas of docu mentary testimony tending: to show that Me. Ln uighlin, by reason ot’ his Jtvbk* mind, induced by habitual intemperance, was in competent to bind the other parlies by anv new promises. This evidence, after n pro longed argument, was ruled out by the Court, under exception from the defend tit, lie in tending to argue tliis question before a full bench. The defendant then contend* and that the notes had been in part paid by other drafts, and this the plaintiffs admitted ; and it was further stated that at the time lie made the new promise McLaughlin was not aware of that fact. The Court charged that the only question for their decision was, whether McLaughlin made any promise. As to the question of the admissability of the testimony offered and ruled out, that was a question of law ibr the decision of the Court. Verdict for plaintifls $3,(132 52. bein;g the amount claimed after allowing the payments made on tiie notes by the defendants. G. Griliin, for plaintifls; S. 1\ Staples and John Slossflti, for defendant. Health of Charleston. —The following rat ifying account of the health oi the city is copied from the Courier of Tuesday : 4 Alter making inquiries from sources which we deem good authority, we consider it pro- j per to say that the disease which lias pre vailed to such an alarming extent in this citv, 1 for upwards of two months past, has almost entirely subsided. 4 We could not ascertain precisely the number of deaths that have taken place from Stranger’s Fever, during the week ending on Saturday last, but are led to believe that they will not amount to more than 10 or 12; am! since that time, the weather has been quite favorable and the period when tin: disease will be entirely eradicated, cannot lie tar <iis;ant. 4 Under these circumstances, we venture to express the opinion that our i’l lends in the Northern Cities may at once commence their return homeward, with but little it any learj being subject to the attacks ol the level alter their arrival.’ Further developments of dholifion.—lts pro gress and prospects. — I'ne pint thickens, r urther developments are making around us. ihe correspondence bet ween'the aboli tion committee, consisting of Messrs. Jay and Smith, with the whig candidates fir Governor and Lieut. Governor, has created no small as tonishment among many members of the whig party. It seems tb the democratic candidates for the same office have not yet replied. Cunning rogues. It is evident now that both the parties into which the people of this state are divided are courting the political abolitionists. The interest of the coming contest increases, therefore. . n s fit? ibv tinr*'•oseh?:’. I From the answers of the whig candidates, We can mark the fear which they entertain ni gv.’ iig ofleuce to tiie üboiinouisls. Mr. ilradisb is, in Lift, a full blooded abolitionist — and oo t: at ground he may gain many aboli tion votes, wiiiie .be must lose on tiie other . e —particuiui ly in this city, and the southern district generally. The abolitionists, by their organization—their power—their influence, have forced both parties to liieir-feet, seeking, ’ ilegging, asking aid, like mendicants in an Italian village, when ‘ Milord Ingiese’ stops j to ciiange horses and be cheated by postiii : ions. Every thing is in confusion. In the desire for victory at the ensuing election, both parties submit, and the abolitionists, in fact, now hold the balance of power. In this confused state of things, we hardly know what to say, or what course to take. Both parties, lor their meanness and want of moral courage, ought to be defeated and disgraced. Oa: ofr.be whole mass of candidates, the whig Congressional ticket seems to be the only one that is pure or worth contending for.

While this body wonid with great delicacy, express its opinion upon all subjects calculated to excite the public mind, it would, notwithstanding, deem it crimi nal to withhold its views upon any matter of public interest, requiring their expression. The subject of Internal Improvement is. at this time, the most important measure iikelv to be brought before the ensuing Legislature. This jury is in favor of a wise, judicious system of Internal Improvement, and would recommend to our Senator and Represent ative to use their endeavors to have an appropriation made for the improvement of the Chattahoochee river, from West Point, as far up as is practicable, for boat ing. The plan promised bv the last Legislature, of loaning the credit of the state to corporate companies, for their private benefit, we unhesitatingly condemn.
