■ I twi mmmmm t 111 n , BXTBAO RDINARY CASK OK DEATH, , AND SUSPENDED ANIMATION. Mr. Robert Bur, n highly respectable real- i drat of Stamford, Delaware: county, <it till* < Smut, was p seeing out of inn yard, on lua wa- i gon, drawn by two I.urges, on Finlay week lasi, nbuui ball past eix in the afternoon. Uy i some accident befell from the wagon between ' the lore and bind wheels. The hind wheel I si ruck the back of hia neck, by he did not feel i it severely at the moment. He got op ahm ' the gate, and remounted hia wagon again. At this moment befell back and swooned away. I Having been observed in this situation by aunts rtf hia family, lie was taken from the ! wagon, and conveyed into the bouse. Ah he ' appeared to be inaensiWe, a physician waa sent for. In some time his eonaciouene*a ro tnmed slowly. He recognised every friend present and gave an account of i lie acci dent that had befallen him. While talking Una way he aabed. i “Where are my arms? Can you tell me , where are ray arms! ' Hia friends and the physicicn thought, and eery naturally so that he was delirious. Yet , be conversed sensibly on every topic, but I fretrirmly, however, making the inquiry. “Where are ray arms! Where ere ray , He wes shown his arms which were laying by his side. From Friday evening, he continued in this stale till Sunday week last. At hall p«nl 9 on that morning, he died, leaving a highly re spectable lentily disconsolate lor his loan. By the investigation of the physician, it appears that the spinal marrow, which runs Kiear the surface, on Uie back nf iho nock -vee separated. His heart beat all the time he ■ waa living, but no pulae waa delected in any of hia limhe, except a alight one m one of his <e«t. . , . , From the new discoveries in electrical sci ence, it is now believed lhattliu fluid gene rated m the brain which a s galvanic battery, it ihc grcsl agent of life and motion. Thu spinal marrow is the great conductor from the brain, throughout the ayslem, the n rvea ■Dialler conductors. When Mr. B. a epioal marrow waa broken, the pheno i.ena that we have related waa produced, llm head only wag alive, all cominnnicalion between ilmi end the body being cut oil—Hence, iho very natural enquiry; where are my hands where are my hands!' tint 111 ordor to undent and the cnuw! ol those singular phenomena, it it neccaanry to a • into some explanation of this uhyaiology ol Uiu human gyalem. The body indeed is com posed of two entire and perfect systems, nili ni.iti.ly connected, and leach necessary to the prolonged existence ol iho other, but either «d' which many exist for a Limited, liras, while tne other is pcrloctly suspended. Ono is called tho system of vegetative life, and is dependant upon the nervous gan «lis about the region of the heart and stomach, ly the influence of those, all iho inaeireihlo processes ol nature, are carried on—sucli as digestion, ammahxalion, circulation, ihu growth and nutriment of every part of the bo dy, and in put the process ol respiration. All these imporianl functions arc carnt! on, in dependant of tho will, and without sensation, making a perfect system of vegolalivn life. The brain the great organ ol suitsat on. thought and voluntary mo'ion, with tins nor vous system connected with it, make a system of animal, or senaaliv# life, eupcradiiod to the lonner, and both acting together, form the period system. There are cases where chil dren otherwise of a perfect (urination,a re burn without any brain.Ritd even exist so for several days.—There are also cosea related, whore the body has existed,and all Us voluntary functions carried on with perfect regularity where the brain and nerves dependent upon it, have had their action destroyed by compression, and even by d .sense. The spinal narrow is a bundle of nerves coming from tho brain, and distributed thro every part of the system. These arc of II kinds—'.be nerves of sensation, which have tho power ol conveying pain or pleasure to iho brain—the nerves of voluntary motion, which excite the muscles to perform whatever Uia intellect dictates, ami u» Nir Charles 801 l bus demonstrated,a third set whoso office it if to convey to the senaonum a sensation o' mu lion, or aco teiousnesa of the position ol the limbs and inuocles. In the case above detailed all the nerves of the spinal column appear to have been sep ••ra'ctl, or so compressed aalo destroy their ac tion. Oi course all the voluntary and sensi- Lie functions of tho system wore suspended below the point of seporalion, while the patient bad a polled command of Ins intellectual bi vultios and the muscles of his face and 'hroat. Ho conversed sensibly, bat was utterly un conscious of the existence nl bis lower extre mities. It must also be noted that Ihu action vs the lungs is partly involuntary, and partly •lependont upon the will. The great sympa thetic nerve connects the brain with the ner vous ganglia of tl« chest and lungs, and the action of Ibis which does not appear to liavu been injured, msy Itave kept up respiration eufficienlly for tins purpose ol conversation. There isanotlier curious idea connected with this subject It has been repeatedly as serted. At many circumstances are brought to prove, that thought and consciousness remain to the brain after decapitation. This tact goes to favor that hypothesis. When tho terrible guillolin was daily and at work, in the reign ot terror, circumstances of tins kind, motions of tho eyes, the lips, sad expressions • •film features, were constantly observed. It Is even probable that in most cases of violent death, the brant retains its consciousness long ■tier the body has stiffened. We have re cords of cases of suspended animation, where persons, though presenting all the outward phenomena of death, have retained a perfect cooeciousness of what was passing, and Itave afterwards described their feeling* and aensa •ions. It was even possible—nay, it is prob- Able—that in caaes whore the bodies of con victs, are used immediately after execution, Ibr galvanic experiments, and tho nervous or galvanic fluid supplied by artificial means, that the brain isatill in a state of activity, and Buffering agonies of thought 100 horrible to dwell upon. Tbe expression ot the counten ance in bese cases would indicate that tbe re flections were ol any thing but a pleasing us (ore. From the Kuhmond Whig. JUDGE WHITE’S REJOINDER. Thi*• document Important in a public view, ■part from the persons! mailers to which it more particularly refers. That it convicts “the Hero of two wars and a hundred broils" of duplicity, want of memory, or of voracity, will be regarded «f less cooeeqaencc, than tbe demonstration it a(* fords of the cherished atlecuon of the party for « Treasury Bank. The intimate relations, which se long existed between Oea. Jackson and Judge While, the thorough knowledge, which the latter had of the views and designs of the former, give great weight to tbe declaration, that "General Jackson now toithet a Saak of the (7. Slate « founded upon the monies of the (7. Slalet, and attacked it the Treatury Department. We I teg leave to call the readers attention par ticularly to the following passages in the Judge’s 1 reply; “We all know in more than one of hi* messa- 1 gee be recommended such a bank, and I know that, in 1829, he wished Mr. Grundy elected to 1 the Senate in preference to Judge W. E. Andcr-, m, because he behoved Mr. Grundy could better ■id in making up * party in Congress to establish such a hank. . ! “His object, when ho came into the Presiden- ' cy, was to have each ■ Bank; nothing waa said by him recommending it after Mr. McDuffie's re port. In common with others, I believed he bad i despaired of it aftor that report, until I read the ; Treasury Circular, and from that lima I have be- j lie red ii wes ra object that he bad never lust; eight of. and that be and bis advisers have put into opera'iun a series of measures disastrous to the country at large, and ruinous to many indivi duals, in order to prepare the public mind for aaeh a bank. “1 have felt it my duty to make these remarks to prevent, if povsblc my constituents from Iwing incautiously bd into a trap, which I think has hern act for the people of the United Stales. I mean the support of a Treasury Bank. Should such sn one Iw established, and placed as it must lie under the control of the Federal Executive, the power thus conferred, when added to that already possessed, will give us, to every substantial pur pose, as complete a monarchy as exists any where, and one winch will equal, it it does not excel, in its means of corruption, any government known to the civilized world." In confirmation of the correctness of Judge White’s view, we copy the following from the Boston Atlas; “This waa one of Ocneial Jkvksnn’i modes of o|ir ration; he would first execute a law, and the;; call on Uongrcsa to putt it. Mr. Van Ouren will try tbe rsiue game. He will set up bis Trearnry Bank, and then require of Congress the passage of all necessary laws. This plan we know baa Icrn a favorite with the present Execu tive from the first moment of General Jackson's election. Mr. Van iluren entered on hia duties as Governor of New York in January 1829. Hia first and only important movement while in Ihia position was the safety Fund Combination— on union of political ami money pow er hy which he has since I men able to control the Slate. The first message in which be stated this doctrine is not a little remarkable. To nisrxivtr. with Ut.vas,'saiil Mr, Van Buren, ‘although it isan iilra which seems to have no advocate; to make ourselves ihpendenl on Ihoie established Ay feileral authurihority deserves none.' He then went on to say that experience is against basks owjtn vviioi.lt bt tul Statx; and that to nakv.

Twis ty niTB ar riitwanns, tic sent a pedal message based upon the views dcvelo[ied ntiovc, introduc ing to the attention of the Legislature the Havkty Ford Histkxi. With some slight modifications, the plan i*i< adopted: and from that moment to Ihia, tho Kifety Fund Interest—your Wall aired patriots—speculators and gamblers in politics and storks—in alliance with the foreign population in the city of New York, deluded hy the erv of ‘Jackson and Democracy'—havk iii'lkii that Scats with a rod or nmi*. Mr. Van Iluren remained in office just long tnongli to effect his abject; fir on the I'Jilt of March following ho re signed his seal as Governor, in consequence of hia appointment to a position in the cabinet of General Jackson. Mr Van Huron left New YmU perfectly satis fied with the promise of his Stale policy, and de termined to carry the same principle into na tional polities. While on his way to Washing ton, lie stopped long enough at Baltimore to he present at n small dinner party given in his honor to a few of the faithful, and on that occasion look ground against the Bank of the United 8 ntes.— He expressed an apprehension that the power of the Bank nkiht he used against tiir Party; and declared that it must ho pul down, and that a TREASURY BANK FOUNDED ON THE CREDIT AND REVENUES OF THE GUV EKRMKNT must he substituted in ils ;lncc. — This would move I lie control of the Public Funds from Congress to the Executive—strengthen the Executive—lncrsHvC his opportunities of advan cing the news of hia fiicnds and insuring the continued ascendancy of tho ruling party. This fact we know. We are so informed that there rail ho no question of the correctness of our assertion that Mr Vim Huron as long ago us 18‘!!l advocated the substitution oflliUTiir.*suiiT Bank under thu control of (he Executive, for u N ation al Bank under the direction of Congress. This wav the origul recommendation of General Jack son in pursuance, no doubt, of the suggestions of his Safety Fund Secretary. Os this original rec ommendation, in all his subsequent policy, Mr.— Van Iluren never permitted him to lose sight; and General Jackson to Ihu present day adheres to his first project of a "Dank nf iho United Stales founded upon the monies of Iho United Slates, and attached to Iho Treasury Department,” Tit-Bit*,—Some malicious editor has been culling and stringing together, ns so many heads, the tart paragraphs from Judge While’s letter.— We give a specimen: Jccksons I'rndencc. —"Tin re is no man who knows the Ex-President has more confidence in liis chivalry and readiness to resent an insult,than I have; hut at the same lime, the history of Ins life w ill show, that whenever ho intends to make such a reply as might provoke controversy; he al ways has timed it so prudently that there should he a sufficient number of persons present to pro vein ill tenqier from producing had consequence."

I hope it will not he considered as disic-qieeilul when I add, there is reason to be lieve the loss of memory is nol the only menial loss he has sustained within the lust few yeaia." Hit Style —" Formerly, although his style was rough and generally nut very good English, yet it »as nci vans and perspicuous. In this (his last) effort hr appears bewildered, and to have lost all distinct recollection of w hat occurred in the first years of hia administration. It is confused as to the dales of different facts and transactions, and huddles together a confused mass of matter, much of which can have no bearing un the subject," Hit Pretent Experiment —‘‘As I believe, he has come home determined to destroy every man who dared to differ from him in opinion us to his succMour, and that it the experiment he is now making. If it bo his will, let him proceed. An gry discussion can never add to my comfort, it may hia. Our temperament and aim are, as I believe, a little different, I endeavor to take facts as I know ol delieve them to exist, and tu meet all the rea;iotisiliilily they justly throw upon me" Hit Temper.— ‘ In tbe temper he now is, and with enfeebled faculties, he views every thing n» an enemy that stand* in the road of hi* ambition.” Hit .imhitioa. —He ha* determined he w ill die having tho charterer of a great man. While my highest ambition is to die conscious that I deserve the reputation of an honest one." In looking over the volunteer (oasts given at the 4th of July celebrations, we often meet with quaint ideas, amusing as well as original. The following we take from an account of the cele bration at Kanawha, in Virginia, the seat of the great salt manufacture: General Jackton. —He has struck dead the currency in the hands ol his deputy, M artin Van Buren. .ibolitiouists.— Patriots that never fight; martyrs that never die.

In this dilemma. I propose, gentleman, to deviate so fur from the usual practice of having on this day exclusively political subjects. 1 pro pose then, Edmund Jt tiffin of Petersburg, Vir ginia. the talented and indefatigable editor of the -Farmer’s Register,” and anther of that most in teresting valuable work, “Essay on Calcareous Manures.” This gentleman, by the application of great teal in hi* scientific researches and his experi ments, has produced a system of manuring, by [ which crops of all kinds in our country, may be doubled and trebled, with a permanent improve • moot ol tbc land. Not only this; hut these great advantages are accompanied by another, of at least equal value. He ha* proven almost beyond I Ihe slightest doubt, that the country thus manur ed, ia thereby tendered almost entirely free from the causes of malaria. He doe* more; he has lately published, to be distributed gratis, to magis trates and lioards of health, a part of the number of his ‘•Farmer's Register,” fur hi* month, con laining most excellent articles, painting out the , mode of purifying the air of towns, cities and oth , er pi ices containing the most abundant sources of diseases. Verily,he deserves our thanks. May your ap probation of Ins virtuous and patriotic exertions, I lie os a nucleons for the gratitude which posterity will beat to his name. In the estimate which our friend Mr. Herbc •limit I a* formed of Edmund Rulfin, Esq. of the I “Farmer’s Register," we ful.y concur. Mr. Ruf fin has for many years lieen known to the agri \ cullmal world, as a most practical and public spirited farmer, and hi* labors for the improve ment of the science of agriculture, have dune no little good in this and other countries. The ser vices of such a man, can surely not he far behind those of the ablest etatoman, fur if the one de . serves high and enduring praise for looking over the interests of our country, and protecting it in its foreign relations, the other merits no less con sideration, tor his constant and unceasing efforts to augment the wealth of our people, by alfording . them facilities in their labors.— Ed.

Looking through an English magazine we sec “nullification" mentioned as a word of Ameri can origin. This assertion shews a remarkable ignorance of the language. Johnson’s Dictionary (published about 1760) has the word, and gives it precisely the sense in which vve employ it, “annul: to make void." j So, too, says Jones Dictionary— so Walker's so even Noan Webster’s. But mueh more ancient authority can be found I than any of these. In the Lives of eminent men, hy John Aubrv, there is the following passage. ' ‘He (Harlot) was a deist. Hit doctrine he taught to Sir Salter Raleigh.lleory Earle of North-1 timherland, and some others.

The Plague seems to be on sc ie increase, and wilt probably continue to in rcase foi a lime at least. It it laid that from it ne or two hundred Turks die of it daily. I think ir not improbable that half this number, perhaps vi rote, do in fact die. From four lo sis een among b tie other papulation, are reported, and the num •er of ihoite is not likely now to be much exag- d ;eratcd. All alarm is past; ami a regular quar- 'I inline u observed by most persons aside from b Puik*. Bome of them aUo, it i** said, begin to ii akc some precaution*. Their religious belief s hat whatever is lo happen lo them cannot be es (> ;aped,leads them generally to take no precautions, b iltbough fully aware of the contagious nature of f be disease. Within a few days past, a French physician, p .horoughly educated, has come here for the pur- s lose of ascertaining the nature of the plague, and t ocated himself at the Greek Plague Hospital, v He was, I understand, several months at Alexan- ii Jria during Ihe prevalence of the Plague there, a He has full belief in the contagion of this disease, and says he knows not why he has so long es caped being infected. He has been commission ed by the authorities to make whatever arrange ments he pleases in the Hospital; with an order t from the Governor that if any thinga befalla the 1 Doctor from poison or other like cause, the lives 1 of the attendants shall go for hit life. He is said ( to be a man of fust rale abilities; and has changed ( the stale of the hospital so entirely, that the peo ple now feel il a privilege lo be taken there to ie- < ceive his attention. 1 From the Smyrna Journal , May 20. The Plague has made no progress during the current week. Among the Christians there is in fact a small diminution in the number of cases, but as the disease continues lo rage with the same violence among the Tut ks and Jews, it may he considered as on tho whole unchanged. Still, 1 the course of the disease on former occasions,give reason to hope that it will not he so terrible this year as has been feared. At Bournabat, il con tinuer lo prevail, The number of attacks among the Turks is 8 lo 10 a day, which, considering the smallness of the population is enormous. “Dr. Bulard, a young French Physician, has arrived herefrom Egypt, for the purpose ofinves tigating the nature of the plague. He lauded on the I3tb, and on the 15th entered the Plague hos pital. "Dr. B. had under his direction, for six months, a Plague Hospital at Caio, during the terrible epi demic which ravaged Egypt in 1835. Th s phy sician, whose knowledge is as profound, as it is various, has brought together observations of great interest on the subject of the plague, and his ob ject in coming to Asia is to complete his research es, hy observing it* phenomena in new localities. Cnoi.suA at Mkcca.—The Cholera haa re appeared in the holy city of the Mahometans, and committed great ravages. It is slated that a tenth part of the pilgrims had died, and two Egyptian regiments had been completely broken up. In consequence of thia painful intelligence, Mehemet Ali had given orders to prohibit pilgrims from re turning by the usual route through Egypt. Eorrr.—Alexandria dates to the 261 h of April state that new eases of Plague continued to occur there, —chiclly, however among the workmen in the arsenal, or on board the ships of war. There was a great scarcity of provisions at Alexandria, and the poor were on the bordets of starvation. The prospects for the coming grain harvest were bail, partly in consequence of drought and Sirfoc co winds, hut more on account of orders given hy the Pacha for the general cultivation of cotton, in the hope of augmenting his revenue, though at the hazard of the people starving. He has however been punished for his haihor ous cupidity, as his cotton mostly remain on hand. At first ho could hardly bring his mind to sell at 19 tulaii (ter quintal; and now he has more than 200,000 quintals on hand, which would scarcely bring 10 to 12 talari. This state of things in regard to cotton has produced a severe pressure upon the Treasury ; so much so that the army, navy, and workmen are unpaid. In the mean time they are becoming dissatisfied with the delay.—ln the hope of providing at least a temporary relief, Mehemet Ali has given orders for the establishment of a Bank of Discount at Cairo, with a capital of 1,500,000 talari.

MONEY MARKET—CITY NEWS. Thursday, P. M.—Although wc are nearly ten days without news from Europe, there is very little anxiety lo hear any thing from that country. All that is of importance is known. Specie,United State Bank Stock and Cotton are tepidly going forward, so that the debt due by this country is rapidly diminishing. Tho imports are next to nothing, and there is neither desire nor inclina tion to make any new orders for goods. The great embarrassments that our merchants experience is Irom the great difficulty in our Domestic Ex changes. Our Banks charge eight per cent for collecting notes on Michigan, a rate 100 ruinous to bo endured. (Exchange on England is gradually fading, there being less and less demand. Specie is no higher but rather on the decline. Freights exceedingly dull to all parts of Europe. To Liverpool they are taking square bales of cot ton as low as a farthing. The visit of Mr. Kendall to this city has attrac ted the attention of many of our quid nunct, and it is said that he is now on a mission very like that on which he was sent previous to the remov al of the deposits from the United States Bank. Il is also said that he has been closeted with some of the same men, who then begun the experiment of “the (tetter currency” with the Slate Banks. For this, however, we do not vouch, hut his ap pearance in the city is consideied as ominons of some new experiment about lo he inflicted upon the currency: which in connection with the late movements of Senator Wright, in behalf of what he calls a yet UNTRIED EXPERIMENT has attracted much attention. As we have staled be lore to our readers, there is now no doubt that the Administration have agreed upon the proposal of what is lo be in subslanced an Exchequer Bank; —and it is suspected that the Post Master Gencr al has visited this city to arrange with his confi 'iaius in Wall street,the untried experiment that benat° r Wright is advocating inthe newspapers. W’ith the very best opportunities of judging wh it is the stale of public feeling in this great country on a subject of so much importance, wc believe we may say with certainty, that the ad ministration cannot obtain a majority in cither House of Congress for such a bank. The Re presentatives of the Slates, or. of Iho people, in the existing condition of public sentiment, dare nol legalize the issues of irredeemable paper, or connect the Treasury with the Government hv mliusttng it with powers so august, or put into the possession of the hosts of office holders, the whole revenues of this conntry. If General Jackson was the President there is but hllle doubt that he would this moments take the responsibility of creating such a‘bank, and putting forth such issues, and there is something to fear (though nol much) that Mr. Van Buren may tread in what ho might suppose would have been his footsteps. We have reason to believe that this project has been indulged in. at Wash- I mgton, and abandoned. Indeed Mr. Van Buren 1 has not the nerve for an opetation of that kind 1 nor the popularity to carry it out. We. therefore’ ' behove the mershants and the people need indulge’ no apprehension of this new Exchequer Bank even if Mr. Kendsll has been in Wall street hi o' ' ntering for it Congress will not crests it Vir- 1 IBM U already out agslnrt It New \ ork m not wit No member of Comgftm ln the *ou«»cUrt / >turJ hi* »otc f.>r it.

The sales of strictly prime new reds liuvebeen generally made at 81, and one parcel was taken at $1 62; other de scriplions lower as in quality. Strictly prime reds would now readily find purchasers at 81 60; with in a day or two past there has been but very little of anv kind of new wheat at market. We hear of no recent sales of new white wheats.

The demand good, but being freely met by the holders, prices of last week were not in all instances maintained. The trade in the interior has undergone a little improvement, though the manufacturers of some descriptions of goods, still pretend to say, that even with cotton at present rates, they cannot gel a profit out of it. Some time will lie required to make matters straight again. The chief sales made in Upland and Mobile have been from 5± to 6J, and in Orleans from 5 to6J. The import of all sorts of cotton into the king dom since the Ist January, amounts to 781,400 hales, of which 610,800 are from the U. Stales; against 653,000 of all kinds, and 470,000 Ameri can received up to this time last year. The stock at this port, as at present estimated, amounted to about 375,000 hales against 250,000; and ol American cotton, wc have 249.500 against 176,- 500 bales, the estimated stuck at the same period in 1836.
