Noiir, • Drireiria:77:On 'Tuesday evening' - last ,
quite a muss occurred at the Arch street Theatre.—
It was nothing less than a contention for a wife.—
From'an account published in the Evening aqua,
.it appears that Mrs. Rebecca Erdman, her maiden
name being Ford, was married some five years ago
to. Daniel H. Erdman, of this city. After living
with Mr. Erdman some four years, and having two
children by him, she left him, and went to board
somewhere in the neighborhood of Cherry and
Tenth streets.
"There, a Mr. Joseph G. Bowman saw her, and,
after a brie) courtship, made an offer of his hand
and fortiine ' which were accepted. This marriage
took place before Alderman Hibbard, on the 20th
of last August. The parties lived happily together
for some weeks, Mr. Bowman being much attached
to his new wife, and indulging her in every whim
and caprice. Finally he left the city, to pay a brief
visit to some friendain the country, and, while,ab
sent, his wile packed up a portion of his personal
effects, and lett without any intimation as to where
,or why she was going. Mr. Bowman heard noth
ing of her, and saw nothing, until last night when
chance and the Bleak House took him to the.Arcn
Street Theatre. Judge of his surprise, on entering
the boxes, to find his runaway wife seated by the
side of a strange man.
'He proceeded to the individual, and naturally.
asked him what he was doing with his wife 'She
is my wife,' replied the other, 'and I'd like to know
how you claim her as your wife.' An altercation
ensued, the officers of the house was summoned,
and Mr. and Mrs. Erdman (the man with her be
ing her first husband) were treated to a realization
of Bleak House, in Cherry street, above Fourth,
known as +he City Police Station. She denied all
knowledge of Bowmo,. said that she had never
seen him before; and probably would have indu
ced this belief in many, if her. previous history
was not fully known. A partial hearing of the.
case was had before the Mayor, this morning, and
Mrs. Rebecca Erdman was held in $5OO to await
a further investigation.'
Toe lantais IN MExico..—The late advices
state that the ravages of the Indians in the frontier
States of Mexico are more horrible than ever. In
Zacatecas and Durango, these wretches torture their
victims with an internal ingenuity of malice. On
one occasion, they scalped a female, sixty years old,
and then abandoned her, leaving her to perish by
protracted agonies. The incursions and cruelties
of the Indians are committed with impunity. Now
and theh a tew men of courage and energy band to
getherepurstie the barbarians, and recover their sto
len property or take a bloody revenge; but, for the
most part, the wretched inhabitants are panic strick
en at the mere sight of an Indian, and never dream
of any other resource than immediate flight. Our
files teem with details of Indian atrocities, but they
are only a repetition of horrible narratives such as
have been already published.

GlObl9.—The official paper of Congress,
J. and newspaper for the people.—lt will be seen
by the annexed extract from a letter of General
Washington to David Stewart; dated at New York
17th March,•l79o, that the idea of such a paper as
I propose to make the Globe, originated in the
mind of the father of his country. He said :
"It is to be lamented that the editors of the dil-'
ferent Gazettes in the Union do not more generally
'and more correctly (instead of stuffing their papers
with scurrility and nonsensical declamation which
few would read if they Isere apprised of their con
tents) publish the debates in Congress on all great
national questions. The principles upon which
the difference of opinion arises, as well as the de
cisions would then come fatly before the public,
and aff ord the beet data for its judgment.' Sparks'
Writings of Washington, vol. 10, p. 84.
In surrendering my interest in the organ of a
great political party, I cherished the purpose of
continuing the Congressional Globe, and, if possi
ble in time, to derfect it into a full history of the
action of Congress, giving the debates accurately
and fully with the proceedings—all stamped with
the variety of an official record. Prom the passage
of the letter of General Washington, which I have
quoted, it will be perceived that he thought this
office might be combined with that of a regular
newspaper; and it is certain that the avidity of the
Public for news of the lbss important kind greatly
contributed to give wings to the weightier matter
which may be called Congressional news.
Having succeeded in my purpose of perfecting
the reports of the debates in Congress and giving
them the official stamp, I now propose to send
t d h ay em i a n br s o l aA, h i aae
nco a n s ne si to i n ou w ts it t h rip the
Il l news and o a f ce th:
rate intelligence sent from the seat of government
is any other form whatever. It will even antici
pate the scraps of news forwarded to cities within
two hundred and fitly miles of Washington by tel
egraph. Before the events thus transmitted are
published in the morning papers, (for instance, of
the city of New York,)the Globe containing them
will have reached the post office of that city by the
Express Mail of the previous night. The process
by which this will effected I now lay before the
public.
I will have a corps of sixteen Reporters in Cone
grass; each in succession will take notes during
five minutes, and then retire, prepare them for the
Press,,put them slip by slip in the hands of com
positors, and thus while a debate is going on in
Congress, it will be put in type, and in a few,fnin
utes after it is ended it will be in print. I shall by
this means be enabled to send by the Express mail
of 5 o'clock p. m. for the East, West and North
and by that of 9 o'clock p. in. for the South;all the
proceedings of Congress up to the ordinary hour of
adjournment. Thus the accurate debates of Con
gress will reach the city, two hundred and fifty
miles from the capital, before their daily morning
papers are in circulation.
The miscellaneos news I shall be careful to
gather from remote sections of _ the country by '
egrapl). I will obtain from the Ex ecutive Depart
ments, through official sources• ' the matters of mo
ment transacted in them, and, through agents em
ployed for that purpose, all the city news of con
sequence in sufficient time to be put into the Globe
and mailed in the express mail trains. In this way
I hope to create a new era in the disseminatiOn of
news from Washington before the public mind at a
distance had received its first impressions from ir
responsible telegraphic despatches; or by letter wri
ters biased by peculir views.
Washington has now become so great a centre of
political iuterest during all the year—the proceed
ings of the Executive Departments, and the infor
mation collected by them, even during the recess
of Congress, is of so much importance to the inter
est of every section of the country--that I shall
continue the publication of the daily paper perma
nently, with a view to become the vehicle of the
earliest and most 'torrent intelligence.
It is part of my plan to reduce the price of the
daily paper to halt that of similar daily papers; and
thus I hope to extend its circulation so as to invite
advertisements. I will publish advertisements of
the government. To subscribers in the cities I
hope to submit such terms as will induce them to
advertise their business in every village through
out the Union, where the Globe is sent daily under
the franks of members of Congress, all of whom
take it and some of them a large number ufcopies.
The installation of a new administration and a
new Congress portends much change in the course
of public affairs as the result of the next session.--
Many vast interests which were brought up in the
last Congress were laid over by the democratic
majority to await the action of a democratic exec
utive . The new modelling ofthe tariff; the new
land system; the question of giving homesteads,
and raking every man a freeholder who may
ehoosrto become one; the approximation of the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans by a national railroad
across the terrritory of the Union; refornf in the
Army, Navy, and civil offices— all these. great
questions, with a thousand minor ones, deeply af
fecting multitudes of men and every State in the
Union, will, now being matured by public opinion
come up for the government's decision. These
new issues, co-operating with old ones, coming up
to be disposed of by new actors on the scenes at
Washington, will be apt to modify greatly if not
alter essentially, the party organizations of the
country.
To these elements of interest another is likely
to be introduced by the interposition of the agita
tions of Europe.' After nearly forty years of peace
in Europe, there is an evident restlessness that
now seems franght with tendencies threatening
war; and if war comes, in all llkeßhood there will
follow such universal hange that the United States
can scarcely hope to escape its vortex. Indeed,
from late events it is apparent that our Govern
ment is already drawn into European difficulties.
These circumstances are calculated to draw the
public mind towards the next Congress with much
expectation.
The Daily Globe will be printed on; fine paper,
double royal size,
with small typo, (brevicr and
nonpareil,) at fire dollars a year.
The Congressional Globe will also be printed on
a double sheet, in book form, royal qnarto size,
each number containing sixteen pages. The Con
gressional Globe paper will be made up of the
proceedings of Congress and the running debates
as given by the reporters. The speeches which
members may choose to write out themselves will,
together with the message of the President of the
Visited States, the reports of the Exeeutive Depart,-
merits, and the laws passed by Congress, be added
in an appendix. Formerly 1 received subscriptions
for the Congressional Globe and; Appendix sepa
rately. But this has not been fond satisfactory,
inasmuch as it gave an incomplete view of the
transactions in Congress; and therefore I have con
cluded not to sell them apart, considering that
neighbors can have the advantage of both by club
bing in case individuals shall find it too onerous to
be at the charge of both.
To facilitate the circulation of the Congressional
Globe, and cheapen it to subscribers, Congress pas
sed last year a joint resolution making it free of
postage. 'I annex it, as the law may not be acces
sible to postmasters generally e
Joint resolution providing for the distribution of the
Laws of Congress and the debates thereon.
With.' view to the cheap circulation of the laws
of Congress and the debates contributing to the
true interpretation thereof, and to make free the
communication between the representative end the
constituent bodies:
Be it resolved - by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled; That from and after the
present session of\ Congress, the Congressional
Globe and Appendix, which contains the laws and
the debates thereon, shall pais free through the
mails so long as the same shall be published by or
der of Congress: 'Provided, that nothing herein
shall be construed to authorize the circulation of
the Daily Globe free of postage.
Approved, August 6, 1852.
As I sell the Daily Globe at half the price of
similar publications, so the Congressional Globe
and Appendix is sold for half the cost of so much
composition, press-work and paper. This I can
afford to do, inasmuch as the subscription of Con
giess almost covers the cost of composition, and
this enables me to sell for little more than the cost
of press-work and paper. It requires the sale of
about 9,000 copies to reimburse expenses. If 500
only were sold, the cost of each copy would be
about $104! The debates in the English Parlia
ment cost about eleven times as much as I charge
subscribers for the debates in Congress, equal in
quantity, and as well reported and printed.
. The next session of Congress will bee long one;
and it is believed the Congressional Globe, for it,
Will retch 4000 royal quarto pages, as the last long
session made 38421 and the long one before that
made 3901 royal quarto pagesfour large volumes,
each session. If subscribers will be careful to file
all the numbers received by them, I will supply
any that may miscarry in the mails. This work
increases in value as it grows old. The first sev
enteen volumes will now command three times,
, and some of the subsquent ones twice,, their ori-*
ginal subscription price.
The subscription price for the Congressional
Globe (including the Appendix and the laws) is
six dollars.
Complete indexes will be made out and forward
ed to subscribers soon after the session is ended.
Subscribers for the daily should have their mon
ey hers by the sth, and for the Congressional
Globe by the 15th of December. The money must
accompany an order for either the Daily or the
Congressional Globe. Banks notes current where
a subscriber resides will be received at par.

rilh e Perfect Grain Drill and
1 most Valuable Agricultural Implement. --
A great improvement in Grain Drills, making this
excellent Agricultural Implement a perfect Ma
chine, for which letters patent were issued Sep
tember 20th, to Mr. Samuel Jenkins, of York cm
The improvement consists in attaching an ad
justable curved cutter of steel, to and through the
drag bar and 'through the point of the tooth or
drill, in front of the tooth, forming a triple edge
at the point, and enabling the tooth to raise up and
glide over any obstructions, and completely'regu
lating th e - depth, of furrow required, and depositing
the grain to the depth, according to the character
of the soil. The Cutter likewise prevents weeds
or stubble from clogging or choking up the mouth
of the Drill. Heretofore insuperable disadvantages
have attended the use of the Grain Drill, on any
other than a level and even soil ; but by this sim
ple invention the operation of the Machine is made
complete and perfect, and this valuable Agricultu
ral Implement can now be used on uneven, stony
or rocky ground, or on new clearing, where the
stumps have not yet been removed„With the same
easy,draught and perfect operation, iffSeeding and
Drilling, as on even and clear soil, without jarring
the Machine in the least, or putting the seeding
devices out of gear.
The model and specifications are now at the In
ventor's Institute, Fulton Hall, where J. Franklin
Reigart will be pleased to give every information
to persons interested in the matter, desiring to ex
amine the same more particularly, or to purchase
County or State rights.
Competent persons desirous of securing the
Agency to sell the County and State rights of this
moat useful Machine, should apply immediately.

necessity for it ceased.
From two eminent Pyhysicians in
FAYETTEVILLE, TZZIN., April 16th, 1661.
Sir:—We have given your Cherry Pectoral as
extensive trial in oar practice, and find it to surpau
every other remedy we have for curing affections art
the respiratory organs.:
GRS. DIEMER & LIAMPTON.
To singers and public speakers this remedy Is
invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lungs,
when taken in small quantities, it ramies al
hoarseness in a few hours, and wonderfully - creases the powerand flexibility of the voice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and ofe■
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are
some cases ao obstinate as to yield entirely to no
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will ears them, if thee
can be cured. . .
Bronchitis, or irritation of the throat and upper
portion of the lunge, my be cured by taking Cherry
Pectoral in small end frequent donee. Thikuncom
fortable oppression is soon relieved.
Rev. Dr. LANSING, of BROOKLYN, NSW Yoax,
states :—" I have seen the Cherry Pectoral cure
such cases of Asthma and lirnoctutie as leads me
to believed it can rarely tail to cure those diseases."
For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, to be
followed by large and frequent dose, of the Cherry
Pectoral, until it subdues the diaeaani. If taken in
season, it will not fail to cure.
Whooping cough may be broken up ancr soon
cured by the use of Cherty Pectoral.
The influenza is speedily removed by this rem
edy. Numerous instances have been noticed where
whole families were protected from any 'serious
consequences, while their neighbors, without the
Cherry Pectoral, were suffering from th• dibeaso.

Dr. J. C. Ayer :—I write to infOrm you of the
truly remarkable effects of your Cherry Pectoral tit
this place, and in my_own family. One of my
daughters was completely cured in three days of a
dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr.
Means, one of our very best physicians freely state■
that he considers it the best remedy wit have for
pulmonary diseases, and that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other medicine lie
ever administered. •
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church lays that
during the run of Influenza heie this seasons, he
has seen cures from your medicine he could
scarcely have believed without seeing.

Professor of Surgery in the Medical College,, Now

Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs have
been elFected by Cherry Pectoral in such extreme
case as warrant the beliel that a remedy has at
length been found that can be depended un to cure
the Coughs, Colds and Consumptions which carry
from bur midst thousands every year. It is indeed
a medicine to which the afflicted can look with
