FOR GOVERNOR, ciiani, i: s i) orcni; it r v, OP CLARK COUNTY. \V a had the pleasure yesterday evening of waking a short visit to tlio Cocoonery of Mr. Hutchinson, at the Hampton Course, at the l ower end of this oily, and cannot withhold the expression of our admiration of the evidences which met our eyes, not only of the practica bility of raising silk here, hut of doing it pro fitably. He has now near 100,1)00 worms either in the act of spinning or almost ready to do so, and they are. the largest we have seen. We witnessed also the machinery of Mr. fisy, for reeling the silk from the cocoons, and inarm factoring it into sowing silk If is an ingenious invention, yet simple and efficacious. Should the culture of silk he carried into successful op eration, this invention or something similar will be as necessary to the silk business, ns the gin is to cotton. It will he exhibited again this even ing, and is well worthy Ihe at lent ion ofall who fe 1 an iTitcrcsl in the silk culture, or in ingenious in ventions in machinery. Sometime since a report was in circulation in this city, sud ns we understood, iii several other parts of this Nlntc, in the highest degree injurious and ruinous to the character of Dr. Marks' Fe male Institute at Oaiiihanivilie, near Columbia, IS.

Hill, Esq. late librarian to the De partment of Stale, and author of the “Ruins of Athens, Fitania's llanquot," and other poems, lias been appointed a Consul of the United States lor tile southwestern portion of Turkey in Asia, Important Decision. — We learn from the Philadelphia Ledger, that in u ease which cai.'.c before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, at the late session, it was decided that the goods of u boarding house are nut liable for the tenant's rent. The plaint!lT occupied two rooms of a boarding house and furnished his apartments with furni ture of his own, paying a slated sum per week The landlord distrained the furniture for rent due him hy the tenant. Tne Chief Justice, in deliv ering the opinion of the court, declared, that this case fell within a principle already established, that for the benefit of trade, a thing put upon ren ted premises hy a customer in the way of a tenant’s business, is privileged from distress; and after proving, in opposition to the statements of some text-writers, that the ground of this exemption was in all cases public convenience and policy, he showed that there was no difference in this res pect between the present case and any of those in which the exemption was admitted, nor more es pecially between the case of an Inn, where con fessedly the goods of ugliest arc not subject to dis tr*ss for the tenant's rent. Tuvbstun cvi i.iit a <l atn , On Thursday last Elijah Corley, Esq. brought this notorious fellow to the city, having arrested him in the low er part of this county on the preceding evening. While preparations were in progress for ta king him on to Mdlodgoville. a few of our citi lens concluding that Mr. Corley had no right to detain him, attempted to rescue him. and would probably line succeeded hut for the timely inter ference of the Sheriff, and his Deputy, Mr. Aver. Su li conduct is exceedingly reprehensible. It is suffi icntly difficult to correct offenders against the laws m this county, without attempt ing by violence to shield them from punishment a nor they are convicted. Tne only excuse we know of for those who ni ule lie atle opt. is, that they were probably ro >veJ i V comp ission I ir the lellow. and acted vvuho it retlecti in. as they desisted as soon as they faun Iso n i person to oppose them, ami are no d>u a heirtilv ashamed of the attempt.— GV<).- gm Argue of the Slh. I Ihe New York Courier stmcs that the gnat i s'.com skip nritiuh Queen, which in to sa l from Portsmouth on tlie Ist July, registers £Ol6 tons, | ami will accuinin .dale upwards of 200 passcngcrc. Whan the Great Western left, nearly all the : Inr.hs in the liritish Queen had been taken, and I it was supposed that she would have a lull freight lof 800 tons measurement. The following is an i extract from a letter from a gentleman in Glasgow : I “ I yesterday went down to see the British Queen. They are completing the ladies' cahin, and next week put in old cloths, carpels, heda. and begin to paint her from stem to stern, outside and in. You will, as will every body else, be sur prised at her massive machinery. All around the engine room there is a wide walk (on a level with the saloon door) protected by a hra-s railing, so that visiters and passengers may have a fine view of the machinery without interfering witli the men. There is a separate entrance to it from the deck; the ceiling of it is panelled. and is to he painted oak and varnished.

The Loco Faces of New York appear deter mined to carry matters with a high hand in that city. They have hit upon a novel hut outrage ous expedient, In order to secure the election of a chief engineer of the fire department, of their own s bool of politics. The Commercial says, By u recent law a change lias been presc ihcd in tire mode of electing the chief engineer of I lie (ire department, by which that oiiiecr, in stead ol lienig elected l>y the people, is to lie ap pointed by l lie foremen and assistant foremen of the fire engine and hose companies. Now, inas much us the lire department is made up of a class of highly respectable elKeient and energetic men, it so happens that a very decided majority of them are Whigs. The election of a chief en gineer takes place by law tonight; and in the ordinary course of events, Mr. Anderson, the pre sent excellent engineer, who is deservedly popu lar with the department, would have been re el cled. But the Agrarians could not endue that a single Whig should by any means he retained in any oflice whatsoever. They have, therefore, proceeded privately, in getting up and organizing, by the selections of tools of their own, a hutch ol' twenly-lour new fire companies, not wanted for the public scrvi e of the city, for the sole and only purpose of creating forty-eight foremen and assistants, to vote to-niglit against Mr. Anderson! The expense of organising these companies will | he one hundred thousand dollars. One of the most glaring and objectionable spe cimens of "J'lxecutivo interference with the free dom oi Flections ” that we have ever vet seen is to be liiund in the Globe of Thursday last, in which the Attorney General of the United Stales appears under his own sign manual, m propr. a persona, ns the writer of an electioneer- . mg paper intended for the Tennessee market, i written and sent to a citizen of that State, to lie I used in the political contest now going on there, \ and published now for the benefit of the party c generally. This article is an elaborate vindicu- v lion of the conduct of Mr, Van Buren duringtbe late war, and a labored attempt to prove liwn to I have been a "war democrat.” If the duties of j Mr. Grundy’s ollice, for the performance ofvvhich j he receives a handsome salary, are so light as to enable him toilevole much ol his .fine to “inter ference with the elections” in the tSiulcs, the compensation ought to he decreased. At any rale, we hud thought that Mr. Grundy, now dial • fio is escoueod in n comfortable berth, would have ( borne in mind his own famous speeih, in which he said that he “never saw an office-holder busy j with elections, that lie did not think that he (the j office holder) was more concerned about his bread and butter than his country.”— Alexandria Gazelle.

A remnrkable feature in the character of the Cnbeans is their fidelity and unfaltering alle giance to tbc Spanish crown, ft may he called i remarkable, because it is the only colony of Spain i in the two America* that has proved true to the mother countiy. One a ter another, the posses sions ol on this continent has been wrest i e.l from her. By revolt nr purchase, encroach i inenta have been made upon her domain, till a territory that oner contained half a world has i dwindled down to the compass ol a single island, i Rebellion has spread through all the other pro | vineos. The colonial yoke has been thrown otf i l>y every slate from Mexico to Chili, but amid i the disaffection Cuba remains firm in her attach j ment to the throne. During the three hundred I ears that have elapsed since the first habitation ! f the Island by the Spaniards, no mention is 1 nnde ul any insurrection, or serious attempt to 1 i eitablish an independent government. Revolt!- j lion after revolution fibs fhroken out on the con t tinent, but the contagion of the example lias never rc.idird the insular province of (ail'a. ’l'hin may be accounted for partly from the pro- i cautions of •'Spain, and partly from the position of j the Island. The government have always bud j a powerful force established at Havana, strong enough to keep in subjection the population oi mo whole eily ami country adjacent. Ibe for tifications at that port arc esteemed impregnable. As long as the garrison proved true to their sov ereign, its eaptuie was ( n ndered impossible. Ret it had command of the Island. Hence all that wits necessary to overawe the spirit ol sedition and revolution, was to strengthen this point by garrisoning it with an army of tried and un doubted fidelity. This Spain has always taken care to do. The number of troops stationed at Havana is seldom leas than twenty thousand. The officers j selected for the station are always men whose al legiance is unquestioned. As a lurlber security against secret plots or conspiracies, every few years changes are made in the appoint ments, and the old regiments ore removed to distant parts to make room for a fresh garrison. I In this wav 100 great an intimacy between the populace and the garrison is avoided, thereby avoiding any sympathy or concert of action be- i tween them. For if the army weie. once gained over to the popular side, an end would soon be put to the Spanish domination; hence the fre quent changes that take place. The jealousy of I the Government would not suffer even Gen. Ta con to remain long at the head of affairs, not withstanding bis great usefulness and efficiency. Heie no little sagacity is evinced, and to precau tions of ibis kind, ami the insular position of the province which separates it from the other Span ish American stales, is Spain indebted for the preservation of that bright jewel of her crown — the Island of (Julia. Rut Ibis security cannot last much longer. Already signs of disaffection show themselves, and if we may believe current reports, the spirit of revolution is at work. A gentleman just arrived from the Island, on whose veracity every reliance eon he placid, has inform ed the editors of the Louisianian, “that great dis content prevailed among the natives. They arc much dissatisfied with the European Spaniards, who have seized upon all employments, civil and military. There ware some apprehensions of a revolt.

Bulletin, A Gemots Historical Fact.— The first rough model of a steamboat, made by Fulton, in New V ork was cut ou* of .. shingle, slipped like a mackerel, with the paddles placed further in front than he hind, like the fins of a fish. The paddle wheel had been first pul in the rear, on the sculling principle, hut was abandoned, on consulting with Mr. Greenwood, the well known ingenious dentist, of New York, now deceased, in whose possession the model remained for many years. Old Admiral Landais; who many of our readers recollect as the enemy of Paul Jones, was also in frequent consultation with Green wood, at the time. He recommended the paddle wheel to he placed in the stern, and to he moved by a tunnel-shaped sail, which was to catch the wind even when it blew directly ahead. anjJ thus communicate the power by reaction to the wheel. Huron Rothschild. A late German journal {die 12.'senbalm, the Rail Road) relates the following incident: A merchant named Joseph Rothschild resided at Pesth, in Hungary. His business was small, a-d became quite unprospcrcus. Ui« wife j auk. and every thing seemed to be. going barfly in his establishment. Notwithstanding ins in telligence and his industry, he was not able to supply the w ants of his family, and he resolved to go to Vienna, and try to obtain from some of his fellow countrymen some articles of trade, upon credit. Two days after his departure, his wife gave frith to a son. The child was flourishing, but the mother, alone and destitute, wrote to her husband to beg him to return to her, and not knowing where he lodged in the great city, she addressed her letter merely to Joseph Rothschild, Vienna, dinner, which has overlhown many well laid plots, and sometimes causes miserable ones to succeed, was this lime favorable to the unfortunate. Flic letter was carried to the Ranker, Raron Solomon Rolhehild, who having accidentally opened and read it, moved by the complaints of the poor woman, sent her immediately a hill at sight lor a hundred florins, and afterwards caused search to he made in Vienna for Joseph Roths child, of Pesth. The latter was ngm found, and desired to go to the house of hia n; frsakc. The poor merchant was not a little jprised to he summoned to visit a man whom he did not know, and with whom he had never had any intercourse. He went, however, and was received hv the hanker in the most friendly manner, and liaron Rothschild congratulated him on the birth of his sin. The merchant was much astonished.and ha dly knew what to say. Mr. Rothschild then gave him the letter from Pesth, and said to him, laughing, ‘you will now want a godfather; take me. if yon please, and have no anxiety fur the future support of the little citizen of this world, who has just seen the light—l will lake charge of it myself. A considerable present crowned the good work. From Chambers' Kdinhurgh Journal. I.ove at «>ne Glimpse. Some years ago, there used to be painted out, upon the streets of Glasgow, a man whose intel lect had been unsettled upon a very strange ac count. When a youth he had happened to pass a lady on a crowded thoroughfare—> lad-; who, e extreme beamy, though dimmed by the inter vention of a veil, and seen but nme nt, made e.n indelible impression on bis mind. This lovely vision shot rapidly past him, and was in an instant lost amidst the common place crowd through which it moved. He was so confound ed by the tumult of his feelings, that he could not pursue or even attempt to sec it again. Yet he never afterwards forgot it. With a m-tul full of distracted thoughts, and J a heart alternately filled with gushes of pleasure l and paiu.fhe man slowly left the spot where he j had remained for some minutes as it vveic thun | derstruek. He soon after, without being aware | of what he wished, or what lie was doing, found himself a an at the plare. He came to the very spot where lie had stood when the lady passed, mused lor some lime about it. went a lit | tie distance, and then came up as when he met | the exqu site subject of his reverie—uneonseinus | ly deluding himself with the idea that this might j r-call her to the spot. t»he came not. he felt | disappointed, he l ied again, still she d.d not pass. lie continued to traverse the place till evening when the streets became descried. Ry and hv he was loft altogether alone. He then siw that all his fund ctluris were vain, and he ; left the silent, lonely street at midnight, with a soul as desolate as that gloomy terrace. For weeks afterwards he was never out of the street. He wandered thither and hither, often visiting the place where he had fiisl seen the ob ject nt his abstracted thoughts, ns if he consi dered that In- had a better chance of see-ng I cr there than any where else. He frequrr.te 1 every pi tee of public amuseihent to which lie could pu c.ii’bs the admission, and he made the tour of I all chinches. All was in vain He never again pliiocii ins ojes on that nngc'tc countenance. j She was ever present to his mental optics, but ; she never appeared again in a tangible form. , Without her essential presence, ail the world | besides was to him a blank a wilderness. j Madness invariably takes possession of the i , mind that broods over much or over upon j I some engrossing idea. So did it prove with this | singular lover. He grew innocent, as the people of ibis country tendcily phrase it. His insanity, however, was little more than mere abstraction. The course of his mind was stopped at a parti cular point. After this he made no further pro- j gross in any intellectual attainment. He ac- t quirt'd no new ideas. His whole soul stood still. . He was like a clock stopped at a particular hour, with some things too. about him, which, like the motionless indices of that machine, pointed out the date of the interruption ; ns for instance, he ' 1 ever after wore a peculiarly long-backed, and j | high-necked eoal, as well as neck-cloth with a | particular spot, being the fashion of the year when he saw the lady. Indeed, he was a sort of living memorial of the dress, gait, and manners of a former Hay.— 1 It was evident that he clung with a degree of | fondness to every thing which bore relation to the great incident of his life. IVor could he cn [ dure any tiling that tended to cover up or screen | from his recollection that glorious yet melancholy I circumstance. He had the same feeling of ve neration for that day, the circumstances, and for | himself as lie then existed, which caused the ] chivalrous lover of former times to preserve upon bis lips, as long as he could, the imaginary de j light which they bad drawn from the touch of I his mistress’s hand. When I last saw this unfortunate person, he | was getting old, and seemed more deranged than formerly. Every female whom he met on the I street, especially if at all good looking, he gazed I at with an enquiring, anxious expression; and j when she had passed, he usually stood still a few } moments and mused, with his eyes east upon the I ground. It was remarkable that be gazed most j anxiously upon women whose age and figures I most nearly resembled those of bis unknown mistress at the time he had seen her, and that he ( did not appear to make allowance for the years [ that had passed siace his met that vision. This was part of his madness. Strange power of j love ! Incomprehensible mechanism of the hu ' man heart! April Pools.— A French paper gives the following ludicrous account of a trick played by a wag upon the custom-house officers at C'bcr bitrg : He was seen driving a horse up one of thesis, with a suspicious looking sack on its bark, and I from time to time he tinned himself rm rid as if to see whether he was pursued or not. The cu | nosity of the custom house officers was soon ex cited, and at length they judged that he must he j a smuggler of the most formidable description. Some of them commanded him to stop, but he on ly drove Ills horse the faster, and on their coining after him. he whipped the sack oil’ the anhmti’s back, threw it on his own shoulders, and took to h's heels.—This was too llagfhnt; so away went a posse of offi. ers after him, and after dogging him through several streets, for the fellow had a stiff pair of heels, finally caught him in a store keeper’s shop.—Here he refused to open bis sack, being in a private house wi bout the presence of a commissary—so the commissary was sent for. the officers stood round in greedy antiripation, of their capture, and the sack w T as opened—it was full of hay.

K oing composed of ingredients which exert a specific action upon the heart, give an impulse or strength to the arteral system ; the blood is quick ened and equalized in its circulation through all the vessels, whether of the skin, the parts situated internally, or the extremities; and as all the se cretions of the body arc drawn from the b ood there is a consequent increase of every secretion, and a quickened action of the absorbent and cxlia lant or discharging vesse s; any morbid action which may have taken place is removed, all ob structions are overcome, the blood is purified, and the body resumes a healthful state. TUe. circula tion, that important function, was not known to the great Cclsus, Galen, or Hippocrates ; therefore, their deficiency of knowledge led them to extract the vital fluid as a cmvative means; but upon the principles of the circSlation of the blood, the prac tice of bleeding is proved to be fallacious..
