A NEW AND CERTAIN NIODE OF CURING THE ,HAKEs." DEAD "Se HIT : - -A stranger in pushing thro' the lower cotiol les of North Carolinia and V11'616:1. Will tip struck by The sickly, cadaverous complex ion of ni.iny I inhabitants thereof. This is occ., sioned by theft proximity to the swamps and po coitus, whosel poisonous exhalations ;hey ar ,, con stantly hre.ttying, and which lorms a fearful source for that scourge of the low lands, chills awl lever. A few weeks ago, while riding is ith a friend, we halted a few at moments at the cabin 01 a shingle getter, for the purpose of obt'ainim.r some water for 1 ourselves an horse While there we entered into conversation with the proprietor of the premises. Our first enquiry. as to the health of himself and family, was answered, as his appearance indicated, " the chills had troubled them occasionally." On further conversation we advised him, to procure a medicine that we named, one that had been pat ented by sorde physicians, and was strongly puffed by the pape4 as an infallible cure for the ague, and a great renovator of the system. The man shook his head incredulously. " Stranger,'.' said he "doc tors may invent and pay editors to print and write about their medicines to cure the ague and other diseases—by so doing they have taken many a hard earned dollar nom poor men like myself—but they won't get another dollar row me in a hurry ! for, Sir, I have tried them, and their medicines won't go doWn here in the bottoms. NOw, Sir, you see thatlboy there? (pointing to a white-bead ed, pumpkin-colored lad, whose age ranged some where between twelve and twenty;) well, that boy, a month agO, was taken by the swamp shako, and, Jesou! they gave him gpss! Bless your heart, you people who live in town don't-know what the real shakes are; but here's the place to see as well as fell them. Why, sir, the very first day, Bill shook himsel right out of bed into the ashes, and kept op such a racket, that the old woman hustled me off for a doctor. I found one in town, and he came out with me. Bill Was better when we came back, but the doctor stayed with us, for he wanted to have a lair chance, he Said, to keep off the next attack. Well, he went to work on the boy—he dosed and he drenched him, as I would have done a horse with the cholic, but it did no good—for the next day the boy was down again; this time he shook himself not only out of his breeches, but came nigh burn ing his skin ior he got into the fire. The docor worked away like blazes, sometimes a tasting with 'the boy, all over the roan, knocking over the pans, tables and benches, trying to keep him in bed—but no sooner did he get him there, than out he would come again, with his teeth chattering and hair on end. The doctor foot the varmint his darndest all day, but but he couldn't lase him—he was badly whipped certain—l told him he might go. Now thinks I tcdmyself, I'll try my hand tomorrow, and see how my medicine will act; so as soon as I got up I went to that chinpaquin bush over yonder and cut me the allfiredist lohgest switch you ever laid your eyes on. When I got back I poked up Bill, who was rolled up in bed, and says I, " Sonny, sonny, hoW do you feel yourself this morning ?" " Why, daddy; " said he. rubbing his eyes," I feel bad enough ; that blasted old shakes is coming on, and its going to give me beans agin." " Get up, sonny," says I " come out here in the yard, I . want you to help s me to -drive out the old sow, for she's making awful works in our tater patch." Bill in a few moments came out with nothing on but his shirt. As soon as be got out of the house, I gave hind such a wipe around his naked legs, that he jumped about ten feet, yelling like an Injun— "now, my boy," says I, "run!" and away he went around the field like a steam engine. Every time he began to slacken his pace, I applied the chin quapin medicine to his hide. I kept him travelling. you may be sure; every time we came toward the house I pushed him the harder, to keep him from getting ins Ball would only have time to sing out, "Oh! Mairimy!" when he would dart out of hearing. Now, the old woman was getting breakfast at the time of the rumpus, and on looking out, got her natur considerably riled at seeing Bill catching it so fast—and the racket he was making led her to think he ivas nearly give out. On our approacdaing the house' for the tourth heat, she could stand it rio longer—or grabbing up the lon. ' handled frying pan that', was on the fire full .of herring out she come. Bless your Plow said she, .‘ fight me -awhile and let ahe boy rest With that she brought down the darned old pan. herring and all,cm top of my aoc•iaiaut. so hard that she cip•iD.l me fl I . into I the - hug trough. 1 don't Cal e so (111.161 tor the lick. althougl . qit made my head ache for a week after ward, hu one of them hot herrings got inside of my shirt anal, Je-ru•sa-lem l how it burnt I It ac tually brhnded me before I got it out. Herring is mighty good generally—but they aint comfortable as a poultice, no :how. When I got up, Bill had gone into the house, sweating like a stage horse in July. He aint been troubled with the shakes since. That's the way I cured him. Stranger, give us a chew of tobacco." ESPERANCE. MUIVZ I REESB ono, N. C., Dec. 15, 1852. The steamer John Simonds, which lelt here this afternoon for . New Orleans, whilst rounding out from the landinv. at Portland, about three miles be low this city, collapsed' a flue, scalding some 25 or 28 persons, and killing 12. The report so far re ceived is imperfect. I will send you tlae,particu lays as soon as they reach here. Texas Reptiles. This Texas of ours is an astonishingly prolific country. Every field stands luxuriant, crowded; so that it can scarce wave under the breeze, with corn; or sugar, or wheat, or cotton. Every cabin is full and overflowing, through all its doors and windows, with white haired children. Every prai rie abounds in deer, prairie-hens and cattle. Every river and creek is alive with fish. The whole land is electric with lizards perpetually darting among the grass like flashes of green lightning. We have too much prairie and too little forest for a great variety of birds. But in horned frogs, scorpions, tarantulas and centipedes we beat the universe.— Every body , has seen horned frogs. You see them •in jars in the windows of apothecal lea. You are . entreated to purchase them by loafing boys on the levee at New Orleans. They have been neatly soldered up in soda boxes, and mailed by young gentlemen in Texas to fair ones in the old States. The fair ones receive the neat package from the post-office, are delighted at the prospect of a da guerreotype—open the package eagerly, and faint as the frog within leaps out; in excellent health. upon them. A horned frog is simply a very harm less frog. with portentous horns. It has horns be cause everything in this region—trees, shrubs, grass even, has thorns—and nature makes it in keeping with all mound it. A menagerie of them would not be very expensive. They are content to live upon air—and can, if desired, live, I am told, for several months without that. The scorpions are precisely like those of Arabia —in the shape of a lobster exactly, only not more than some three inches long. You are very apt to put one upon your face in the towel which you ap ply thereto after washing. If you dg, you will find the sting about equal to that of a wasr—nothing worse. They are far less poisonous than the scor pion of the East—in fact none except new comers dread them at all. But the tarantula! You remember the astonish ing elasticity with which you sprang into the air that time when you were just on the point of put ting your raised foot down upon a snake coiled in your path. You were frightened—through every ft°re of your body. Very probably the snake was as harmless as it was beautiful. Spring as high, betas utterly frightened as posSible, when you just avoid stepping on a tarantula. however. Filthy, loathsome, abominable, and poisonous—crush it to atoms. before you leave it! II you have never seen it—know henceforth that it is an enormous spi der ; concentrating in itself all the venom and spite and ugliness of all other spiders living Its body is some two inches long, black and bloated It en joys the possession of eight inches long, strnng legs, a red mouth, and abundance of stiff brown hair all over itself. When standing it covers an area of a saucer. Attack it with a stick, and it rears on irs hind legs; gnashes at the stick, and fights like a fiend. It even jumps forward a foot or two in its rage, and if i bee into a vein, the bite is death. 1 have been told Ma battle !ought by one on board a steamboat. Discovered at the lower end of the saloon, it came hopping up the saloon driving the , whole body of passengers before it , and almost dro..e the whole company, crew and all, overboard The first I saw was at the house of a friend. I spied it crawling slowly aver the wall, mediating murder upon the children playing in the room.— Excessively prurient in regard is my fingers, I a' lasi, however, had it safely imprisoned hi a g:,as jar, unhurt. There was a flaw in the glass as Mr I I as a hole through the cork by which it could breathe, but in ten minutes it was dead train rage! ,non after, I killed three on my place, crawling :bout ground trodden every (lay by the bare ire' of my little boy. A month after, I killed a whole nest of them. They had formed a family-circle rimier a door-step, upon which the aforesaid lit le fellow played daily. Hail lie seen one of them, h.- would of course picked it up as a remarkably promising toy ; and I would have been childless I was sitting one day upon a log in the woods. when I saw one slowly crawl out to enjoy the eve ning air and sunset scenery. He was the largest. most bloated one I ever saw. As I was about to kill him 1 was struck with the conduct of a chance wasp. It, too, had seen the tarantula. and was fly ing slowly around it. The tarantula recognised it as a foe ; and throwing itself upon its hind lees, breathed defiance. For some time the wasp flew , around it, and then, like a flash, flew right against I it, and stung it under its bloated belly. The taran tula gnashed its red and venomed jaws; and threw its long hairy legs about in an impotent rage, while the wasp flew round and round it watching for another opportunity. Again and again did it dash its sting into the reptile, and. escape. After the sixth stab, the tarantula actually fell over on its back, dead ; and the wasp, after making itsclf sure of the fact, and inflicting a last sting to make mat ters sure, flew MI happy in having done a duty rs signed It in creation. In an hour more, a colony of ants had carried it down piecemeel, and diposi ted it in their catacombs. But the deadliest and most abhorrent of all our reptiles in Texas is the centipede. This is a kind of worm, from three to six inches long, exactly like an enormous caterpillar. It is green, or brown or yellow—some being found of each of these col ors. As its name denotes, it has a long row of feet, horny claws rather. Imagine that you walk some night across your chamber floor with naked feet; you put your toot down upon a soft some thing, and instantly it coils around your foot in a ring, sticking every claw up to the body in your foot. The poison flows through each claw, and in two minutes you will have fainted with agony; in a few more you M ill be dead. The deadly thing cannot be torn away. It has to be cut off, and claw by claw plucked out. Even if it crawls over the naked body of a sleeping person, without stick- I ing in its claws, the place will pain the person for years after—at least so I have been told. I have seen these things in which nature corks up her deadly poisons—often ; yet I have heard of few cases in which they have bitten or killed any one. The Kind Being who makes the butterflies to be abundant, in the same lolling kindness, makes all deadly creatures to be scarce.—Arthur's Horne Catette. The Lepers in Jerusalem In my rambles about Jerusalem I passed on sev eral occasions through the quarter of the Lepers Apart from the interest attached to this unfortu nate class of beings, (arising from the frequent al lusion made to them in the Scriptures,) there is much in their appearance and mode of life to at tract attention and enlist the sympathy of the stranger. Dirt and disease go revoltingly together here; gaunt famine stalks through the streets; a constant cry 01 suffering swells upon the dead air, anti sin broods darkly over the ruin it has wrought in that gloomy and ill-fated spot. Wasted forms sit in The doorways; faces covered with white scales and sightless eyes turned upward; skeleton arms. distorted and mud with the ravages of leprosy, are outstretched from the foul moving mass; and a low howl is heard, the howl of the stricken for alms; alms, oh, stranger, for the love of God ! alms to feed the inexorable destroyer -I alms to prolong this dreary and hopeless misery! Look upon it, stranger, you who walk forth is all your pride mid strength, and breathe, the fresh air of heaven; and you who have never known what it is to he shunned by your fellow man as a thing unclean and accursed; you who deem your eelf unblest with all the blessings that God has given you upon earth; look upon all that you have c,liceived to your gloomiest hours—a misery can be endured; learn that viol, the L'per. de. t gnawing at its I dills and unceasing tortures in his blood. cast out :ran rite satiety of hi. fellow man, forbidden to touch in lliendsnip or affection ihe hand of the untainted, still struggles for 'lie, and deems each hour precious that keeps him from the grave. The quarter of the Lepers is an impressive place. By the laws of the land, which have exist ed from Scriptural times, they are isolated from all actual contact with their fellow-men ; yet there seems to be no prohibition to their going out be yond the walls of Jerusalem and begging. by the road-side. Near the gate of Zion, on the way to Bethlehem, I saw many of them Bitting on the rocks, their hideous faces uncovered, thrusting forth their scaly hands for alms. Their huts are rudely constructed of earth and stone, seldom with more than one apartment, and this so filthy and lothsome that it seemed to be unfit to be occupied by swine. Here they live and propagate, whole families to gether, without distinction of sex ; and their dread ful malady is perpetuated from generation to gen eration, and the groans of the aged and dying are Loursvztxr, Jan. 7 CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 18, 1853. mingled with the legible wail of the young that are brought forth, branded for a life of misery. Strange and mournful thoughts arise, in the con templation of the sad condition and probable des tiny of these ill-fated beings. Among many there must be some in whose breasts the power of true love is implanted; love for woman in its purest sense, for offspring ' for all the endearments of do mestic life which the untainted are. capable of ieel ing ; yet doomed never to exercise the affections without perpetuating the curse ; some, too, in whom there are hidden powers of mind, unknown, save to themselves; ambition that corrodes with una vailing aspiration; a thirst for action that burns within unceasingly, yet never can be assuaged ; all the ruling passions that are implanted in man for ' great and noble purposes; never, never to give one moment's pleasure unmixed with the perpetual gloom of that curse which dwells in their blood. As I plodded my way for the last time through this den of sickening sights, a vision of human misery was impressed upon my mind that time cannot efface. I passed when the rays of the, sun were cold and the light was dim and there came out from the reeking hovels leprous men, g aunt with famine, and they bared their hideous bodies, and howled like beasts; and women held out their loathsome and accursed babes, and tore away the rags that covered them, and pointing to the shape less mass, shrieked for alms. All was disease and sin and sorrow where ever I went; and as I passed on, unable to relieve a thousandth parr of the mis ery, moans of despair and howling curses followed me, and Lepers crawled back into their hovels to rot in their filth and die when God willed. BlGOTE.T.—Phillips, the celebrated Irish orator, in one of his masterly speeches, gave a most vivid personification of bigotry. It is as follows: " Bigotry has no head, and cannot think ; she has no heart, and cannot feel; when she moves, it is in wrath; when she pauses, it isamid ruin; her pray ers are curses; her communion is death ; her ven geance is eternity ; her decalogue is mitten in the blond of her victim; if she stoops for a moment from her -infernal flight, it is upon some kindred rock to wnet her fang for keener rapine, and re plume her wing for a more sanguinary despera tion." Lunicnous.—A friend of ours who possesses a quiet vein 01 humor, was recently on a visit to Maryland. relates an amusing account at a colored chorus, witnessed by the• relator, - at one of the African churches. Tne masculine darkies were ar ranged like four and tu.etity blackbirds all in a row" on one side, and the females on the other.— The latter commenced the chorus with, "Oh for a matt—oh! for a man—oh ! for a man sion in the skies." to which the former responded— " Send dots n Sal—send down itov.e cal nation to me soul."
