The ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE forthe coun try is printed on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. _ ■Ml advertisements appear in both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates. THE ELECTIONS. PENNSYL VASIA. The following is the state ol the Pennsylvania Congressional Election, so far as heard from: Jackson. Whig. Sutherland, Harper, Ash, Ingersoll, Fry, Darlington, Wagener, Potts, Hubley, Heisler, Mnhlenburg, Morris, Logan, Clark Miller, Chambers, Henderson, McKennan, Beaumont, Denny, Anthony, Banks,—11. Laporte, Mann, Klengensmith, Buchanan,—15. Two districts yet to hear from, namely: 22d, composed of Clearfield, Armstrong, Jefferson and Butler, and now represented by Mr. Har rison, (Jackson); and the 25th, composed of Crawford, Erie, Warren and Venange coun ties—represented by Mr. Galbraith, (Jackson.) Both are candidates for re-election, and have both probably succeeded; in which case, if the above accounts are all correct, the Pennsylva nia delegation in the next Congress will be 17 Jackson and 11 whigs. We announced, yesterday, on the aumoriiy of private letters, as well as of newspaper state ments, that Messrs. Miller and Beaumont, Jack son Members of Congress from Pennsylvania, had been beaten by their whi» opponents, Messrs. Whitesides and Shoemaker. We ob serve that the re election of both these members is asserted in the Globe of yesterday, and such may be the fact. We do not hold that authori ty in the highest respect, but it may have later information than ours, and, in fairness, we think it right to mention the adverse statement.— One of the changes, however, in that State, about which there is no doubt, is the defeat of Mr. Coulter, the present Representative from Westmoreland district. This gentleman has been a member some six or seven years; and, although always elected as a Jackson man, has, combined with fine talents, a degree of inde pendence in his public course which commands our respect—Nat. Int. The following is a list of the Members of As sembly, as far as ascertained. The whole num ber is 100: Anti-Jackson. Jackson. Philadelphia 7 Philadelphia Co. Delaware 1 Montgomery 3 Chester 4 Dauphin Lancaster 6 York 2 Lebanon 1 Mifflin Juniata 2 Dauphin 1 Union 1 Cumberland 2 Lycoming Adams 2 Northumberland 1 Franklin 2 Beiks Huntington 2 Northampton 4 Union 1 Centre 2 Somerset 2 Columbia Beaver 1 Lehigh 2 Alleghany 1 Luzerne 2 Bucks 1 Cambria 2 Beaver 1 Alleghany 3 Bucks 3 The whole number of Anti-Jackson members last year in the House was 35—Jackson 65. The counties yet to be heard from, are Bed ford, Fayette, Greene, Washington, Westmore land. Alleghany, Butler, Mercer, Erie, Venan go. Indiana, Armstrong, Bradford, and Tioga, Susquehanna, and Schuylkill. There is, un doubtedly, a Jackson majority, but it will be di minished considerably since last year. The Pennsylvania House of Representatives comprises 100 members, being already the ut most limit allowed by the Constitution. Last vear. (tie House consisted of 65 Jackson, and 35 Anti-Jackson members. The change since then is not lar?e, but so far as it goes is certain ly in favor of th^ Anti-Jackson cause. The members of the next House will probably be as 60 to 40. Returns of the election of 38 Anti Jackson members are already in. OHIO. The news of the success of Mr. McLene in Franklin county is confirmed. This was calcu lated on as giving a majority against the Demo cracy—the Bank holding sway in Columbus, the Capital of the State and seat of justice in this county. From Ross, Allen's District, we learn, that Bond (the Bank candidate) has received 100 of a majority less than McArthur received at the last election. From Steubenville, we learn, by the follow ing letters, that Kilgore (the Democratic candi date) has succeeded over Stokeley (Bank can didate) several hundred. From St. Ciairsville we learn that Mr. Bell, the present opposition member in Congress, is beaten by Mr. Kennon, Democrat, 41 votes. St. Clairsville, Oct 17th, 1934. Sir: I have thought fit to let you know how the election has gone in two Congressional Dis tricts of Ohio, viz. In Belmont and Guernsey, the Jackson candidate, Kennon, has carried by a majority of 41 votes. In Jefferson and Harri son, the (Anti-Bank) Jackson candidate, Kil gore bas carried.” Gov. Lucas has, for the most part, outrun the Jackson Congressional tickeL Mr. Mitchell, the worthy and faithful member from Muskin gum, is beaten by a schism in the Democratic nak*.—Globe. [The intelligent reader will please to excuse ns for quoting the slang terms used in the Globe. 'AV. desire to give both sides, just as they report themselves.!— &L Alex. Oax. From OMoi, our information is extremely fa vorable to the complete regeneration of the State. The returns are not sufficiently com plete to enable us to give many results of the Congressional elections; but we can state, that, in almost every county from which we have heard, the Whig cause has gained strength, and many of them, heretofore Jackson, bavebecome decidedly whig. For example: Turnbull—last year Jackson, this year whig. Portage—last year Jackson, this year whig. Belmont—last year Jackson, this year whig. Muskingum—last year Jackson, thi9 year whig majority 1300. e Fairfield—Jackson majority reduced from 1226 to 500. Perry—Jackson majority reduced 300. These changes give fair promise of the elec tion of the whig candidate for Governor, and a gain in the Congressional Representation^ [Be it understood, however, that “fair pro mises” weigh very little with us. We have no faith in fair promises.”]—Ed. Alex. Gaz. We understand that the French Minister’s el dest son, Mr. George Serrurier, has been re cently appointed attache to his father’s mission, and is to sail the first of November for Havre, bearer of despatches for his Government Globe. Gold Eaglet.—Some six weeks ago, the Globe congratulated its readers on the fact that the gold coins were making their appearance in this city, and it expressed its opinion that they would cheer with delight the honest farmer and mechanic.” We believe there were a few that made their appearance, but they dis appeared in a very few days, there being no election in the city at which they were wanted to be jingled in the ears of the voters. Some office holders, for a few days, had some pieces which they were very fond of showing, but they soon either became ashamed of the humbug, or found it more convenient to apply them to ano ther use. We have been attentively looking out for this flood of gold which, according to the Globe and Mr. Penton, is to deluge the land and drive out the notes—but we scarcely see the signs of it yet. The bank notes hold their own, and we very much doubt if there be in the District a single note the less, on account of the gold coin bill.— Telegraph. Tobacco Crap*.—'We regret to learn that the frost of the early part of this week, has done im mense injury to the Planters. Whole fields lay prostrate and whole crops, in some cases des troyed. A gentleman mentions the name of a widow Lady, whilst we are writing this para graph, who had sufficient out to make twenty hogsheads, utterly ruined.—Maryland Repub. Health of the City.— By a reference to the re port of the Board of Health in our paper ot this morning, it will be seen that the number of deaths during the past week was 106. Of these only 7 were of Cholera. The number of deaths during the week preceding were 117; 11 were of Cholera.—Phil. Uaz. Joseph L. Hays the New York Police Officer, who recently died in this city of cholera, was worth 20.000 dollars. He was a distant relative to “Old Hays,” as the High Constable of New York is called, and was early in life a shopkeep er. He afterwards was attached to the Police Office, where he did business “on his own hook,” as it is termed—that is, he employed few or no stool pigeons.” During the ten years that he was a police officer, he is said to have realized nearly 30.000 dollars. He left the Po lice Office a few years since, and although he still held his Marshal’s warrant, and officiated at Niblo’s Garden, yet he was principally occu pied as an agent for the firm of Hendriques Co. and in buying and selling houses and landed estates. He was alive and well in New Y'ork on Friday morning at 9 o’clock, at which hour says the New York Transcript, we were conversing with him in the Police Office about the cholera in Philadelphia, whither he was going; he expressed his fears that he might fall a victim to it, and on Saturday noon he was a corpse.—Phil. Inq. An Amateur Coachman— Kobert Brockhouse, in a notice published in the Salem Gazette, cau tions the public, who would be saved from dislo cated and broken limbs, to avoid the Eastern Mail Stage below Portland, which, he says, is frequently driven by Albert Smith, the Marshal of Maine. Mr. Smith, it is stated, is in the habit of taking the reins when he travels in this line, for the gratification a childish vantity. Mr. Brockhouse and his wife were recently upset in the stage while it was under the control of this modern Phaeton, and suffered some disloca tions and bruises.—Boston Cour. The Washington correspondent of the Alba ny Daily Advertiser avers that Forsyth has man aged to let Kendal] Co. know he has a most sovereign contempt for them. An incident, says the writer, occurred the other day which satis fies most people that there is no affectation about it. Two or three Clerks here have subscribed and got up a lithographic print of Kendall—and they had the impudence to send one Miller, who|is hawking about the print, into the Secre tary of State’s office, to offer one to the Secre tary. Mr. Forsyth was indignant at the insult, and handed Mr. Miller out of the office, with directions, if he wanted to sell his prints, that he had better take them to Mr. Kendall himself. Boston Atlas. Interesting to Shiv Owners:—a new article, Chenam.—Our merchants are indebted to Cap tain Thomas Bennett, of the New York and Li verpool packet line, for the introduction of this article into use here. Chenam (the East India name) is made by mixing slacked and fine pul verized lime with whale oil, to the consistency of mortar. It is so tenacious that it adheres immediately to wherever applied, and is entire ly impervious to water, and becomes perfectly hard in it It is laid on ship’s bottoms, sometimes under the sheathing, and sometimes between the cop per and sheathing, and in some instances in both places. The copper is put on while the Che nam is soft, and adheres to it so completely, that no water passes between them; and it is said that copper on vessels which have a coat of Chenam wears nearly double the usual time. Whale oil is used here in making it, because it fully answers the purpose, and is two-thirds cheaper than vegetable oil; but vegetable oil makes much the best Chenam, becoming as hard as stone. It is suggested that the celebrat ed Mortar of the Ancients was made of lime and vegetable oil. We understand that some experiments will be made here on roofs and outside walls of houses, with Chenam, as it is believed it will ef fectually resist the fogs and frosts of our cli mate, which the common rough casting does not—New Bedford Gnz.

We are very much gratified to see that me annual Thanksgiving has been fixed in Con necticut, Massachushusctts, and New Hamp shire, on the same day, viz: the 27th of Novem ber; and we hope the States of Vermont, Maine and Rhode Island, will follow the example, and select the same day for the same purpose. Thanksgiving Day is the great festival of the New England States, and is observed with the most lively feelings of gratitude (we trust) as well as joy. There is something interesting and very solemn in the idea of the meeting of so many Christian communities, at the same moment, to acknowledge their dependence for all their blessings upon a Divine Benefactor, and to render their tribute of thanksgiving and praise, for the favors received from his Provi dence. We could wish to see the practice ex tend through the country.—N. Y. Daily Adv. British Gold.—A gentleman recently from London states, that the leading topic on Change was the agitated state of American politics, cou pled with remarks on the quantity of gold ship ped to this country. The reply of a gentleman who generally leans against one of the Pillars was, il it is not all sent out on commercial ac count; and if the British Government were to send a million annually to keep things in their present position, it would be the cheapest mode of putting down democracy in England and Ire land.”—iV. Y.Star. Mysterious Affair.—We are informed by Mr. Briggs, that Mr. James Perkins of Newington, N. H., left the Eastern Stage Office, in Ann street, last evening, between 5 and 6 o’clock, for Cambridge Port, on business, since when he has not been heard from. Previous to his start ing, he told his son (a lad about 11 years of age) and another man in his employ, whom he left at the office, not to feel uneasy should he be ab sent till after 10 o’clock, as he should ride out in the Hourly and walk back. His hat and poc ket book were found last night on Cambridge bridge, his pocket book rifled of its contents (except some papers.) His son states that he had with him when he left the city, about $600. Mr. P. was the Postmaster at Newington, which place he left for Brighton with a drove of cattle and sheep, which he sold at Brighton on Mon day last.—Boston Mer. Jour. Trial of the Convent Rioters.—At the Su preme Judicial Court, held on Thursday, at Cambridge, the following persons were arraign ed on an indictment for destroying the Ursuline Convent, and severally pleaded Not Guilty: John R. Buzzell, Prescott P. Pond, Wm. Mason, Marvin R. Marcy, (aged seventeen) Sargent Blaisdell, Isaac Parker, and Albert Kelly. Five other persons, included in the same indictment, have not been arrested, viz: Nathaniel Budd, Jr. Benj. Wilbur, Aaron Hadly, Ephraim G. Howell, and Thomas Dillon. The Court nam ed the first day of December next for the trials to commence. Two females, Sophia Emery and-Hall, were brought into Court, on a capias, for refu sing to testify. The Attorney General said he considered only one of them, Sophia Emery, guilty of wrong against the Government. She absconded, at the instigation of a friend of one of the prisoners, whose name she refused to tell, until the Court told her she must, when she said it was Smith, whose Christian name she did not know, but he kept a Carpenter’s shop in Han cock street. They were then discharged on their own recognizances. Mr. Thurston has not vet been arraigned upon the indictment found against him.— Boston Gazette. Lookout for Pirates.—Capt. Jenks, of brig Helen, of Dresden, which arrived yesterday morning from Maracaibo, reports, that on the 3d inst. lat 25 52, Ion 73 10, he was brought to and boarded by a piratical schooner, mounting 10 guns, with a crew of about 80 men, Balti more clipper built, showing a black and white flag—robbed them of a hawser, coils of rig ging, small stores. &c. without ceremony, and on leaving, very politely bid them good morn ing, wishing them a pleasant voyage. Money appeared to be their principal object. All the men who boarded the Helen spoke Portuguese. Boston Gazette.

Early Snow— Snow fell in Bangor and Nor ridgewock on Monday and Tuesday last. The Bangor Whig says, that enough had fallen there to make very tolerable sleighing, had the ground been frozen. We see by the papers that snow has also fallen in the interior of New-York. Portland. Adv. We learn from the Wabash Courier, that the Elephant attached to the menagerie of Messrs. Porter, Howe, ACo., while it remained in Coven try, Indiana, killed a man instantaneously, for having several times offered it tobacco. He had been warned to desist by the keepers; but did not regard their admonitions. The same paper states that the Rhinoceros be longing to that company, died in Vermilion County, in that state, on the 2bth ult. It was about three years old, one third grown, and in a very thriving condition. Economical made of preparing Food for Carl Horse*.—The Earl of Balcarra’s horses, ten of which are kept in Liverpool for the purpose of delivering the coal brought thither from his Lordship’s mines, like most of those used for draught in that town, are particularly large; and in a district quite celebrated, and justly so, for this description of horse, we certainly have seen nothing equal, take them altogether, to his Lordship’s teams. They are fed in the follow ing manner:—Statement of the nature, quanti ty, and cost, of the food consumed by ten horses duriifg seven days. The outside current prices are charged for each article, and, of course, the different states of markets will vary the cost of maintenance: 32 bushels of potatoes, steamed, at ls6d per bushel, £2 9s 6d; 2 1-2 bushels of barley, crushed very fine, at 4s, 10s; 2 1-2 of beans, at 4s 6d, 1 Is 3d; 22 stones of cut hay, to mix with potatoes, at 9d per stone, 16s 6d; 14 stones of hay, uncut, at 9d, 10s 6d; fire and la bor, 2s Total, £4 9s 9d. We repeat, that the horses kept there are in the highest possible con dition and health; and, while we re assert that the particulars of the statement may be relied on, it will be admitted that this plan, which has been adopted in Ireland, as also in America, is well entitled to be called economical.

ALEXANDRIA? I WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCT. 227Ts3? We are more and more convinced every day j that if the institutions, and laws, and liberties of this country are to be preserved, it must beef. fected by a general diffusion of knowledge and I extension of education among the people—from the richest to the poorest man in the land Where there is no national education, theie can be no durable legislation.” Where the mass of the people are ignorant and uninform, ed, there must be room for the machinations of demagogues, and the arts and tricks of design, ing political knaves. Public Knowledge is th( basis of Public Virtue, and Public Virtue is the chief corner stone of the Temple of Republican Liberty. An enlightened population cannot be imposed upon for any length of time—an igQo. rant one may be bound and shackled as long as it suits its masters. The motto or tne irienas or ,\ir. Muhlenburp one of the Jackson men elected to Congress from Pennsylvania, was, No Free Schools!” A let ter-w’riter, complaining of the defeat ofthe Jack son candidate in Bucks county, ascribes it to a report that he w'as represented to be favora ble to the School Law”—than which, adds the letter w'riter, a more foul slander was never uttered”! &c. Ac. Where ignorance is bliss, His folly to be wise.” Venerable Patriarch.—Moses Brown,there nerable patriarch of the Society of Friends, in Rhode Island, entered upon his ninety-seventh year, on the 23d of last month. Several of his personal friends, on this occasion, paid him a congratulatory visit at his residence in Provi. dence, and were kindly received and hospitably entertained. John G. Watmough is spoken of as Mayor of the City of Philadelphia. A blasphemous production, gotten up by the debased portion of the Jackson party in New. York, has been noticed in this Gazette. We have received some inquiries in relation to it It is entirely too profane and low for us to refer to it more particularly. _ Mr. Kendall, who lately run some horses on the Washington Race Course, has been mista ken, in the Northern papers, for Amos Kendall, the Fourth Auditor. The latter gentleman, we believe, is employed altogether on the jHilitical race course. Mr. Page, the Postmaster at Philadelphia, has denied the language lately attributed to him, and which has been mentioned in this Gazette. We shall now probably have the proofs. An excellent and well-written communication from the pen of a gentleman of talents, signed Marco,” which appeared in this Gazette last week, has, we observe, been extensively copied and recommended to public attention by seve ral intelligent editors. We should be glad to hear often from the writer.

Considerable excitement exists at Augusta, Maine, in consequence of an Anti-Slavery Con vention, which is to be held in that town next week. The church where the Rev. Mr. Tappan is pastor, had been selected as the place of hold ing the meeting, but, in consequence ofthe ex citement among the congregation, some other building has been obtained. The Montreal Herald of the 9th instant says; We understand that the officers of the Cus toms at this port, have received instructions by the last packet, from the Honorable Board ol Customs, that salted Beef and Pork, imported into Canada from the United States of Ameri ca, by inland navigation, is admissible duty free, upon exportation in any British colony in North America, or the West Indies, and that a com munication to that effect has been sent to the Board of Trade in this city.” The author of the following curious panegyric is the W ashington correspondent of New Wk Times, and the object of it is the President of the United States. “There is a mysterious light that directs hi* intellect, which baffles all speculations upon the philosophy of mind, and the channels through which conclusions are reached without the aid of that mental operation which can alone shed light upon the pathway of research. He arrives at conclusions with a rapidity which proves that his process is not through the tardy avenues of syllogism, nor over the beaten track of analy sis or the hacknied walk of logical induction.' For whilst other minds vigorous and cultivates, are pursuing these routes, he leaves them in the distance, and reaches his object in much k*J time and with not less accuracy. His mind seems to be clogged by no forms, but goes *it& the lightning’s flash and illuminates its own pathway.” There is no doubt but that the above will be religiously believed by a great number of {*r' sons! _____ New Moving Power.—At a meeting of the French Academy of Sciences on the 16th o June, a very interesting communication w*a read from M. Thilorier, a skilful chemist, who exhibited to the Academy the apparatus by which he procured a litre (two pints) of l><lu* carbonic acid in a few seconds. The propelrtj of this substance, he observed have been but i tie examined, chiefly because it requires to confinedinaclo.se vessel hermetically *?ai and capable of resisting a great pressure.

One of the late Philadelphia papers relates a most melancholy instance of depravity, termi mtin* fatally, in infancy, at a moment when fortune was prepared to shower her favors up on the hapless victim of evil associations. It was the case of a lad from the country, of most respectable and worthy connections, who had been reared in habits of innocence and virtue, until apprenticed to the printing business in that city, and who, by ignorantly at first going out into the streets at night to play with other bovs was gradually led "on to the formation of pverv evil habit, which he expiated by an ear lv and disgraceful death in a foreign land, just at the time when he might have inherited a handsome estate. t This is no uncommon incident, and the chro nicles ol our jails, penitentiaries, and alms-hous es abound in similar narratives. Amongst our philanthropists who are busy in forming societies and plans for the suppression of vice and immortality, none has yet directed attention to this fruitful source of crime and con sequent misery. Can there be no plan devised for keeping boys off the streets at night? Can not those "assemblages at the corners, the fire engine houses, and other places of resort, be dispersed. Is there no mode of preventing them from parading our streets at all hours of the night and disturbing the sleep of others by their noisy and tumultuous uproar? If the police can not suppress this nuisance, certainly it is incum bent upon the parents, guardians and masters to employ or retain these minors at home. Can those to whom the government of youth is con fided, sleep soundly whilst their charges are thus spending their nights in disgraceful and de moralising rioting and debauchery? Christians Patriots. Parents, what says conscience!!! Balt. Gaz. Outrage.—On Saturday evening last, an in famous outrage was committed by some person or persons unknown, in the Free Church, in this city. While the minister of that Society was delivering his Sermon, as usual, to his congre gation, a tremendous explosion, equal to that of; a twelve pounder, took place within the build ing, not in the audience room, but in the enclos ed passage to the north aisle. The sash of the window near the explosion was broken out, and a man near the door was somewhat injured.— Much fright and some fainting was occasioned, but happily no great actual injury sustained.— The explosion was of gun powder prepared like that of a petard. During the same evening, as we hear, a mob collected near the meeting house of the African M>»thodi'for action in a moment, and can be made, at Wl'h to pour out, for any desired time, a conti nuous stream of bullets, which can be di rected towards any point or object, with the mtie facility as the stream of water from a fire rigine and with perfect precision; whilst the men who direct it are sheltered in entire secu f,!.v- Mr. Toplis looks forward with so much confidence to the moral influence which this new eighty power must exercise upon the world, lt denominates his engine the Pacificator.

In Baltimore, on the 19th inst, at a quarter af ter 11 o’clock, A M. the most Rev. James Whit field, Arch Bishop of Baltimore. He was born at Liverpool in England, on the 3d of No vember, 1770. Hts father, James Whitfield, a respectable merchant of that city, gave him the advantages of a liberal education. At the age i of seventeen, he was bereaved of his father, and became the protector of his mother. To assuage her grief and to restore her sinking health, he accompanied her to Italy. On his return from that country, where he had been for some time engaged in mercantile pursuits, he found himself in France at the time when Napo leon had decreed that every Englishman in France was a prisoner. He spent the greatest part of his exile in Lyons, where he became acquainted with Ambrose Marechal, the late Arch Bishop of Baltimore, who was then pro fessor of Theology in the Seminary in that city. The piety of his youth inclined his mind to the sacerdotal state, and he commenced the study of divinity under the direction of his learned and pious friend. He distinguished himself by his solid judgment and persevering industry, and his illustrious professor has often been heard to relate the anecdote, that his fellow students would frequently request him to cause the young Englishmen to recite, so much were they taken with the elegance of his diction, and the perspi cuity of his arguments. In the year 1809 he was ordained priest in the city ol Lyons. After the death of his mother he returned to England, and was employed in the discharge of paro chial duties in the town of Crosby. When Dr. Marechal was elevated to the Arch episcopal see of Baltimore, he wrote to Mi Whit field, earnestly soliciting him to give his assist ance to the flock which Providence had placed under his charge. He complied with the re quest of his former friend, and landed on our shores on the 8th Sept. 1817. He was immedi ately appointed one of the pastors of St. Peters, and performed the duties annexed to that office with zeal and piety. In 1825, by a specal indult he received the degree of Doctot of Divinity from the Court of Rome. At the death of the most Rev. Arch Bishop Marechal, his name was first on the list which was sent to Rome to re ceive the sanction of his holiness, and he was soon after consecrated Arch Bishop of Balti more in the Cathedral in this city. His career in this elevated station was marked with pru dence and zeal. It was through his solicitude that was held the first provincial council, which spread universal satisfaction through the catho lic congregations of this country. His fortune was considerable, and it was generously conse crated to the purposes of religion. The Cathedra experienced his liberality, and the beautiful edi fice of St. James’s in our city is a lasting monu ment of his munificence. Of him may be said, what can be said of few, he entered the career of honors in wealth, and left it poor. Such was Arch Bishop Whitfield: he has fought the good fight, he has finished his course, he has kept the faith;” for the rest is left to him a crown of jus tice, which the just Judge will render to him. Balt. Amer. It is with feelings of deep regret we announce the death of Thomas S. Grimke, Esq. of South Carolina. Travelling on last Saturday (11th inst.) from Cincinnati to this city, he was seized with sudden illness in the stage-coach, (his at tack being, it is supposed, of cholera.) and una ble to proceed further, he was left at Anderson’s tavern, twenty-four miles west of Columbus, un der the care of its inmates, where he expired on the following day. It is consoling to remark, that his eyes were not closed solely amidststrangers. His brother, the Hon Judge Grimke, of this State, being in Columbus, to meet him on his arrival, was early enough apprized of the melancholy occurrence to reach the bedside of the deceased on the eve ning of his attack, and thus to alleviate his suf ferings till his last moments. His remains were brought to this city on Monday evening, ac companied by several of our most respectable citizens, and consigned to the silent tomb. In the decease of T. S.

BROOKVILLE ACADEMY. THE Trustees of this Institution, situated in Brookville, Montgomery County, Mary land, about 20 miles from Washington, and 28 from Baltimore and Frederick Cities, deem it proper to inform the public that they have en gaged Nathan C. Brooks, A. M. as Principal of this Academy. Mr. Brooks is a gentleman o most unexceptionable character, of high standf ing as a scientific and classical scholar, and of very considerable experience in the education of youth, having been very advantageously known for some years past as the Principal of Franklin Academy at Reisterstown; and the high reputation which that school attained un der him, is strong evidence of his qualifications for such a station. The central position and convenient distance of Brookville Academy from the cities of Wash ington, Baltimore, and Frederick; its retired si tuation and location in a healthy, moral, and intelligent neighborhood, in which the retail of spiritous liquors is prohibited by an express act of the Legislature, and where there is, conse quently, less danger of the youthful mind beco ming contaminated by the frequent observa tion of vice and immorality; together with the high moral and scientific qualifications of Mr. Brooks, the Board of Trustees flatter themselves will give their Academy claims upon public pa tronage which are surpassed by none, and per haps equalled by very few, similar institutions in the State. Mr. Brooks will enter upon his duties in the Academy on the 8th September next, and will be assisted by three gentlemen well qualified to instruct the pupils in their respective depart ments. The terms for tuition in English, Mathema tics, and Ancient Languages, Board, Washing, Rent, and Fuel, 330 374 cents per quarter. The modern languages are 86 per quarter each. No money will be required in advance, 4or either board or tuition; but respectable references must be given to the President of the Board of Trustees, on application for admission.

I sept I FRANKLIN ARMFIELD. HYGEIANI3M. 1 rHE following testimonial* of the »uperior efficacy t of the HYOEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of ,ur diseases, speak in a language which must carry :onviction to the mind* of the most skeptical:— Brown Univbrsitt, Dec. 25, 1831* I*o Mr. Samuel Young. Agent for the Hygeian Vege- table Universal Medicines, for the State of Rhode t Island. a Sir—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pel* me, in compliance with your request, to give a brief statement of a cure, which, I think, I received1 from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the same the more cheerfully, because thereby, perhaps, I may be useful to some of my fellow-men, who may i be afflicted with a similar disease. My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition maybe explicitly under- stood, I state, in connexion with the relation of the cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep tember, 1812,1 caught a severe coIJ, which settled on my lungs; 1 was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining my health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be fore in usual health. I found myself bleed1 ng at the lungs, I had not, to my knowledge, received any hurt or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut ed. I spat blood, occasionally, for four days; it left me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap petite, and withal, very weak A few weeks determined that l was in a decline I received the attention of the most skilful Physicians, who often seemed to check the progress of the dis ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. Hut rel’pse upon relap one hundred per mi nute, food produced great distress, appetite very poor, pain in the breast directly opposite lire heart, attended with some cough, &c. &c. Such was my condition, when I first became acquainted with the Hvgeian Medicines I commenced taking the medi cine*, four pills at a dose, and increase L the dose dai ly, one up to the number of twelve. In about ten days, my appetite became good, and fo id produced no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing, and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease had nearly all disappeared I took the medicine sixty days regularly every night, averaging about ten pills at a dose; the greatest num ber taken at any one time was fifteen After tins, I took about four doses a week, until l had taken about thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored to health. After I commenced the Hyg'ian, l took no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I w»* able to resume my studi -s in college, where I have since remained without 'any recurrence of the disease. Hitherto 1 have been convalescent; and it my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I have less pains, and am more free from temporary sickness, than at any time since my earliest recollec tion. Yours, with respect, HORACE T LOVE. Du II. Shepkeard Moat. Dear Sir—1 wish to state that mv sister, after -evere suffering, and employing a medical man three years, was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines. Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her side; indt«sd, to use her own expression, her >s on one side had turned in, actually deformed The pain was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers o If, and perhaps, over exertion with it. After using a few, doses of Mo. 1 and 2, alternately, about eight pill* for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, she is now restored to health; and I have no objection to this case being made public for the benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly, I! 1)YB It. Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834 Injustice to Dr. H. her medical adviser, when he heard her improvement in health, lie recommended perseverence in the use of he medicines. This valuable Medicine, being composed only of vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted, on oath, as containing not me particle of mercurial, mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un congenial to the nature ol man, and therefore dcstruc live human frame,) is found to be perfectly harmless to the —,>s* tender age or weakest frame, un der every stage of him...., suffering; the most pi asant and benign in it-operation, an,t „'t the same time the most searching out the root of every complaint, how ever deep, and of perfotming a cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the least trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or exhaustion of bodily strength, anil without tlu tear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustom* d habits. These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken to excess Experience, which is the touchstone of all human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the fact; and extensive use of them has already verified 119 iruiii in hi 19 uuuuiry. These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak, j the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by their operation, beca ise they clear the body of its bn I humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious mcnicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, costiveness, &c. The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bad humours; they sotten, cleanse, and detach the acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst. One, two, or three powders may be taken throughout the day, mixed in halfa wine glass of water. The genuine Medicines can be had of VVM. POMEROY, Alexandria, Sole Agent for the District of Columbia and its vicinity.

IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow with the growth of civilized society, Consumption takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human life; yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar rives at the terrific maturity \vhl:h so often baffles the sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms-oppression of the breast; greenish and bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri veiled extreineties, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of s'rength; flushed cheeks; swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the lull posses don of the mental faculties, and while hope still whis pers her flattering tale—rold extremities, and a pre mature death. For the various stages of this complaint, one of the most approved r.-medies ever yet discovered is Dll. HKLFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
