A valued correspondent in the interior sends ns the following: Suppose the British Corn Laws were now in full force, and every grain sent to poor j Ireland subject to a heavy duty; would we 1 rot have a beautiful exhibition of the opera tion of the Restrictive System? Suppose that people had millions of holts of Irish Lin en, that they would be willing to give in ex change fnrctrn, but which our people would not take by reason of the tariff on the arti cie, would we not have another proof of the ; value of that system to both countries?

On Sund»v 1 si hair negro men were ar rested and confined in the Guard House, carg- i rd with the committal of a most horrid and j revolting act, almost before unheard of. It ! *»eems, from the confessions of one of them, ! that on F> id a y nighr, I tie four negroes pro ceeded to the* Grave Y trd, where they ex humed the body of a white man who had been buried during the day, and cut from it the fingers, toes anti tongue! They then rare- : fully reburied the body, returned to theirquar- | Its and hung up to dry, by the tire, the trophies of their horrid depredation. The j next dav, one of the party becoming alarmed or conscience stricken, told ofTi e affair, and i the actors n it were all arrested. On being I questioned as to their motives for the out rage, they gave as a reason, that the fingers, j to»-s or tongue of ahead body, possessed a *•charm ,” which would enable the possessor to be always successful in any species of gambling in which he might engage! Tins is one of the most revolt ing outrages o r wh ch our city has been the scene for rnanv years; and it is some satisfaction to know (hat the perpetrators of it have been arrested, and will be dealt with as the Jaws d rects. —M bile Register, 9lh iusl.

Dr. Win. A. Shaw, of Washington, N.

I have j : used the \N il»l Cherry a great deal in practice, and • with marked good result?. in those causes of great j nervous mobility, and irritability, to w hich phthis ical patients are subject. I have no doubt it is the bt st form in which the effects of Pru-sic arid may I he had as a sedative on the constitution without I danger to the patient. Every one knows the rep i utation of the Turpentine and Balsam constituents | in protracted coughs. The combination of these principles in Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry is ingenious and judicious.

On Saturday a i good enquiry was continued, hut the light stock on sale prevented the business from reaching any very important extent, and the transactions were con futed to some lUJO bales, at prices a shade higher : than were prevalent on Friday. On .Monday the j enquiry was again very active, hot the moderate , supply tiff-ring, and the further advanced rates 1 claimed by holders, prevented parties from op r | ating to the extent desired, though sales of about I 55()o hales took place, at prices still more in favor j of sellers. 4 esterday the rn irket appeared to open ! rather quietly, and little or nothing was done dor- I ing the early part of the foteno- n; but later in the i day buyers came forward and took some round i lists, w hich had been he d at advanced rates, and i tiie business of the d ty readied fulty 7500 bales; 1 making a total of 17.0U0 bales for tiie last three days, taketi principally for England, France, Spain, the Continent and the North.
