' Mkdioal Lectorks,— Dr. J, Clawskn Kelley, Analytical Physician, from the city of New York, delivered two lectures at education Hall, fn this bo rough, on Monday and Tuesday evenings, Dr. K. is a man of Intelligence, oml a fine speaker. In his remarks he took strong ground against the present practice of Medicine, and advocated a practice which rejects all harsh or violent agohls, such os mercury, arsenic, .bleeding, blistering, ike. His system dif fer* widely from all other*, and his remedies employ, ed are of an entire different character front those . used by our physicians. At both lectures the Doctor - was.listened (b by a very large tad intelligent por lion of cur .community* Firs at Nkwviu«k.—Wo learn by a letter from - Newvitfei that a fire.broke out in that borough, on (he morning of the 23d inst., at about I o'clock. The , fire originated in ibo atore bouse of Wiliam* and Brother, which was entirely destroyed, logelhe rwltli oil its contents, consistingdfholluw,sheet iron, and tin ware. .The flames soon spread to the dwelling house occupied by Dr. Ziegler, on the same lot, which was cinch injured, but not entirely destroyed. Dr. Zleg tor's loss in furniture, however, is said to bo consid erable. We learn (hat the firemen of the borough lobored most zealously, nod are therefore entitled to great prutse. The ladies too—God bless (hem ! worked like heroes, and are equally entitled to a full share of praise and gratitude. Fatal Accide.it.—A young man by the name of G. W.

What makes the gentleman so exiremely sore in this matter is the fact that he gave* Diana $5O to purchase a wed ding dress, and ever since she Jilted him he has been much aflocted in mind and unable to attend to bis business.

The Centreville Sentinel •ays the wheat In that vicinity has been attacked, but the crop Is probably top far advanced to be materially injured* The Cambridge Democrat says the fly has greatly injured the wheat in that county within a few days past. The Gaston Star says the prospect for a heavy yield of wheat in that county never was bettor, although there are soma complaints of-the ravages of the fly.

IIBNItV OIiHY AND OBK* TAYLOHi Jo ibs United States Senate, a few.dsys ainoo, Henry Clay opened a battery upon Gen. Taylor, and denounced what is called the .** President’s plan for settling Ihe slave .question-, In decided language. The “non actibn policy V of the. administration, which our neighbor' of iho Herald ao warmly'op* proved, is very properly, denounced, by thinking mon of all parlies. It ia auoh a policy as a school boy might recommend, and about auoh aa we might expect from the present Galpbln Cabinet.’. “Hon action " in regard to the. slave question, might suit Gen. Taylor, but the people demand a settlement of this vexed question upon a solid, basis. The ad* ministration would like to dodge Ibis question, but wc arc glad to see that Henry Clay ia determined to.force old 2aok and his cabinet to assume some kind of a position. From Mr. Clay’s remarks made in the Sonats* wo take the following t Mr. Clat expressed tho belief that if the Com* promise bill, or some measure of the same character* did not pass-nothing would be done for California and u fugitive slave not—nothing lu soothe the ogi* tated feelings of the country, end to save the effusion of blood, and even if Congress should pass any one or more of these measures, it would have no bene ficial effect upon the country—because, one section would continue bitterly to reproach iho other for having secured its own ends* without making pro* vision for the other’s interest) br considering the wishes of the other. He also again contrasted the President’# plan of settlement with that which the committee had pre. sonled, and called upon the-friends of tho former in preference ,lo Ihe latter to stand up, faco to face, in its defence. Ho challenged the contrast.

The lime is past when one man can think and act for a thousand t etrerjr man in this free land, has the right to think, and speak. On a subject, of such Vast impoft, as, that bf the rights of labor, all should take part. In the changes of forlUHb all men are alike Interested* and the niillionary of to-day, or at ledst his chil dren, may be the hardy laborer of the fbihre, and he who now plods hia wflj, through the busy crowd with the hod upon his shoulder, may soon rank among the wealthy of the.land. Therefore, whan rightly considered, It is Hot sn advantage*to any one to oppose the rights of labor. Thefe cannot, of* at least there* should nol, Be dhe sub ject which should claim the general attention more than that of the rights of the .working class. They, constitute the bone and sinew of the community—among their ranks are found the most eminent inert of ail lands, and the proceeds of their toil.build ddr cities and Internal imptuvt*- menis—extend oiif Commerce* and make us gtfeat land wealthy. In, this land* noblemen are not born, but they are made. By birth we are free and equal; we fall heir to no honored title—to no special privi leges, but upon our own toil and labor, depend our success in life. Therefore, that system or organization of society, whioh affords the “great l 631 good to the greatest number*” sliodld bo con sidered Ihe most beneficial} and find the most zealous supporters. The objects In fcl&W and. the results which are‘to-be gained In the success ol . this movement, dro lo benefit the masses} and in every man who has the-.welfare of his fellow being at heart, it should find a friend. Man has long enough been the slave of capi* tal and influence, and U is now high time to dash aside the shackles which have bound him, and stand forth the true roan—the image of his crea tor. Being,born free} lie baa the fight to life— to to enjoy the fruits of his industry*, and that syaterti of society which denies one or all of these is false, and should, in the soonest sod most practicable manner be abolished. In the present condition of mankind the most favor able mode, which appears to offer itself to con snmnte the objects desired, and secure to all the privileges-guaranteed to them by the laws of nature and laws of God, is concentration of ef forts—Combination of working men. Them Is no other piWef than this that can suc cessfully compete with capital, and without it all other efforts, it Is itneterial what may be their character, of with What ability they may he con ducted, will avail nothing. Strikes rather injure than benefit laborers, where there is not concert of action and combination of interests, ’ihe past has proved It so, and the future will sustain the conclusion. Bui, are strikes ever beneficial 1 We answer hey ore, at. times. When tho employed can Bltiks with safety—when they are in concert with their fellow laborers—ivben they are certain that their stopping will cauaa their employers business Ito stop, and his stationary or invested capital to I remain idle—when they are sure that the demand for “the article they produced will not decrease, then is a strike beneficial. Bui in a large major ity of oases, they prove injurious, owing to a want of forethought, and an ungardedness of the rights which they, by combination, could protect. Men strike for wages and before they ore aware of it their places are,occupied by others; they are thrown out of employment; they are an ex* pense to themselves, and by their own acts make themselves wretched. Then (hey cry out against capital as an evil, when they have in their own hands the power of remedying it. Capital and labor are not, nor should not bo enemies; for labor, itself is capita); and It is only when labor neglects its own rights, that it Is subservient to capital. Laborers—working men—whether yon toil mentally or-physically—through sultry day or, by the midnight lamp—in summer's heat or win* tsr's [cold, you must act. You must cooperate with your fellow laborers; you must unite us one man; you must form a brotherhood, vast as our Union Is broad; you roust bind'yourselves with ties closer than those of kindred; you must com bine; you must concentrate your efforts; you must think, act, and'speak as one; you must have one object; one aim. and that tlie ameliora tion, improvement, and reformation of tho work ing classes.
