new cases anti twelves deaths. I have
, heard of more case* to-day. Speculat ion
as to the cause of this ‘••idden and des
tructive visitation appears to be paralysed
by tlie panic it lias produced The ma
jority of the cases are women and lam
informed that a very great proportion,
both of the mules and females, have been
addicted to spirits drinking. Several it
must lie admitted have been attacked who
were not. The disease is in every part
of Gateshead. I cannot divest my mind
of a belief that the immediate predispo
sing cause of the attack has been the tip
pling carried on on Christmas Eve.
There are many dirty, filthy streets, and
many poor jieople badly oil", to assist or
aggravate in extending the disorder when
it once obtained a footing, fiver m Gates
head Fell which forms the most airv and
healthy part o! the parish three or four or
five cases at least. In Gateshead, at first
1 am afraid some were lost for want of
immediate medical assistance, the Chol
era having appeared almost like a thun
derbolt. This will of course not again
occur.
Newtastlc-upon- Tyne Tuesday evening
•—The account t have to st ud to you to
day is truly app tiling.—There have been
59 new cast s, -tnd 32 more deaths in
G ucshead. These numbers tiro according
to the official report made up at 10 o’clock
this morning; it is known however that
returns from two of the snrgt ons had not
at that time been received and these re
run is are said to contain 21 new cases
and 12 deaths? The disease is found m
, all parts of the borough and extending to
Gateshead Fell the highest situation a
bove Newcastle, Persons of all ages have
been attacked and carried off by the pes
tilence. 'File malady is now spreading
westward, having reached the neighbor
hood of Ryot, a village about 7 miles up
tlm river. It is difficult to assign any pro
bable reason for this sudden and frightful
devi lopement of the disorder. Gateshead
has been clear of it for 17 or 18 days lon
ger than Newcastle, during which time
the winds generally prevailed from the
Southward. On Saturday tlieuind shif
ted to the North—blowing direct from
Newcastle to Gateshead and on Sunday
the disease was found raging in every
quarter of the town though attacking
scarcely any hut the poorer closes of people
Newcastle and Gateshead are Loudon
and Southwark in minature. London
and Newcastle are to the North, and
Southwark and Gateshead to the South
ot the river. A bridge connects Newcas
tle and Gateshead, which may be about
3- »ds the length of L ndon bridge.
'1 iioiig!) the disease is clearly epidemical
there can be no doubt of its being also
contagious, and a prevailing idea both
here and at Sunderland, and I think
strongly supported by facts, is that the
danger of infection is infinitely increased
by coining within the sphere of the effluvia
of rlie dead- 1 cannot conclude without
Observing, that in Gateshead, particularly !
there is nothing Ike a sufficiency of tiled- !
ieal men to attend all the cases of the j
cholera. Jt is known that at Gateshead
many persons have died without being a- 1
blc to get any medical assistance whatev
er. 'There can be no Want of navy and
army surgeons in London, anxious i
for employment. Let ns hope that a few j
of them will be seat down to render that j
assistance to the poor which humanity a- j
.lone must point out as indispeusible re
quisite.

PUBLIC MEETING.
At a large and respectable meeting
of the Clark party, held ut Columbus on
the llth inst. for the purpose of recom
mending suitable persons to the electors
of the county of Muscogee to represent
them in the next Legislature, Doctor
Ai.gkr.nos Si. Clifton was selected. for
the Senate, and Willis P. Baker and
William Kirk for the Representative
branch. And it was voted unanimous
ly by the meeting to support said tick
et.
Perhaps no man ever lived, who de
i served more entirely the gratitude of
| his country, than Washington. Other
| individuals have risen to eminence,have
j acted conspicuous parts on the Theatre
. of tiie world, and many have acted them
'•veil; but they have died, and their la
'oors, their usefulness, died with them.
But it w as the peculiar felicity of Wash
ington, to have been one of the formost
I among those who gave the first impulse
| to, and who has directed by his wisdom
.and energy a mighty revolution, which
i not only conducted his own country to
happiness and glory, but even after his
own agency was w ithdrawn, continu
ed, and siii! < oiilinues to go on, and
whose influence is bit through every
part of the world. By his wisdom and
energy, by iiis zeal and devotion to their
success, he gave a sanction to princi
ples, which not only secured the pros
perity of his own country, but has iden
tified his name with liberty and free
dom throughout the world. Those
principles which he successfully vindi
cated in his own country, are now
powerfully operating in favor of public
liberty, among nations and people, who
while living, knew not, or contemned
bis name. They are undermining the
thrones of despots, sapping the strong
holds of oppression, and bursting asun
der the chains which have so long bound
the human mind, in every country which
has been connected by trade or social
intercourse with our own, and which
we have every reason to believe will
continue to move onward and onward,
until the whole earth shall acknowledge
their ascendancy.
It is but proper therefore that we
should on certain occasions, recur to the
signal services which he conlerred on
his country, and seriously examine
those doctrines anil principles which
he taught, and which under the blessing
of Providence, have so efficiently ad
vanced our happiness &t glory. What I
period more appropriate for this duty,
than the anniversary of his birth? On
Wednesday next this anniversary will
return for the hundredth time, and our
fellow-citizens have determined to cele
brate it with becoming honors. While
therefore we reverently present on that
day. our humble offerings of gratitude,
to the Great Controller of all events, for
his kindness in fixing the theatre ofthis
great and good man's usefulness among
ourselves, let us recur to the doctrines
he taught, to the principles he upheld
both by precept and example. 'The
following order of celebration has been
; aelojitod By the committee.
CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION.
The procession will form at the Co
j lumhus Hotel at 11 o’clock A. VI apd

Having introduced in our last paper
the subject of Mr. Van Buren’s rejec
tion by the senate, it will probably be
deemed but fair that we should give
the reasons of that rejection, as urged
by those who opposed him. \Ve have
accordingly inserted in this day’s paper,
Mr. Webster’s remarks, and shail fol
low it up in our next by Mr. Forsyth’s
speech on the other side. There nre
other speeches on both sides pregnant
with interest, which we may find room
for in some ensuing number.
Our readers will probably recollect
that some time since we republished a
paragraph from the Havnnmdi Republi
can, detailing the particulars of a very
extraordinary operation in Dentistry,
performed by supplying a jaw, which had
liven lost, by an improper use of mercu
ry. It was also mentioned that Mr.
Osdorx. toe distinguished Dentist alia- ‘
ded to would probably be in Columbus!
on u professional tour, cnrly in the win I
ter. We have since learnt that an un
expected press of business oas delayed
his progress, and that he will not reach
this place till the last week in February
or early iu March.

It is known that many decent women
at service in the city, or otherwise too
much occupied to take proper care ol their
own children, place them nut at nurse,
and often pay the greater part of their
wagi s to pi rsons who take care of them.
A women who makes her liv mg from this
class of mothers, lately called, on one <>f
our most respectable medical gentlemen
to prescribe for one of her nurslings that
was ill. The physician was surprised at
perceiving strong symtonns o i mania ap, -
tu. He asked the woman what was the
infant’s fond, and she said bread. Being
further questioned she said, “He won’t
eat the bread, sir, unless it’s sopped in
whiskey. They are very fond of that,
and it’s an excellent thing for keeping
them quiet. If makes them sleep from
morning to night.”
Philadelphia Paper.
A curious method, is mentioned iu the
Gazette of Practical Medicine of the cure
of chronic rheumatism by means of quick
silver applied to the surface of the body
in phials. A case is narrated of a lady
suffering all the extremes of fortune!. frcrVi
the disease and having tried nil means
sulpherous baths, &e. in vain, who was
cured by this novel means. Two phials,
containing seven ounces of mercury each
were filled, well corked, and sewed into
a belt of thin calico, which the lady wore
round her body, so that one lav applied
to each side. In three mouths after their
first being applied, the pain she says was
in a great measure gone, and she is now
quite well, the phials w ere of cast, not
blown glass and of course more porous.

writes there is attached a high interest,
independently of the intrinsic ex-celli ncs

production of the author; and those who I
have derived pleasure and profit foil. Ins
prolific pen will read with deep me! ■ . ho
ly the notice that the author appends
to these volumes. We will copy it for the
benefit of those who have not yet had a
taste of the work. *
The gentle reader is acquainted, that
these are in all probabilty, the last tales
it will lie the lot of the author to submit to
the public.
He is now on the eve of visiting foreign
parts; a slup of war is commissioned by
his Royal Master to carry the author of

health as may serve him to spin his
thread to an end in his own coun

an uncommon share of tlie most inestim

complain that life, advancing to its peri

portions o' shadows and storms. They
have affected him at least in no more
painful manner than is inseparable,

of humanity. Os those whose relation to
him in the ranks of life might have insur
ed hint their sympathy under indisposition

may yet follow in his wake, are entitled to

joyed no small good fortune during the
course of his pilgrimage. , j
Tin* public have claims on his giatir

has no adequate mean- of expression;
but we may IW permitted to hope, that
the powersof his tniitd such as tbev are,
may hot haw a different date Ironic those
