The F«»het «>n tbe Mouoagahelo.
. , ;-JVe icam from the Fairmount Virginian, some
- particulars in regard to the late freshet on the
. bead testers of the Monongahela. The river com
menced rising at Fairmoant, on Monday the Bth
: - inst, and on Tuesday morning it had attained a
'.*••• > height of forty-three feet, which is the highest
' - stage ever before tnown. The rißefiTßt common
eed on the West Forh, and the destruction of
= property was very great.. Daring Monday, some
forty houses floated past Fairmoant, and many
' more daring the night—among these buildings
• were three mills and a carding-machine house.
Every hoase except one, and part of two others
iSf:
in the village of Worthington, were swept away—
one drag store passed down tbe river, belonging
toDr. Davis, of Worthington; but every thing was
apparentlyuninjured in it. Mr. Sood, of the
same place, lost his store house, nnd a great part
of his goods. Tbe'millofMr. Honlt, belowFair
:::■ mount,-w& a earned away; but little damage was
sustained by citisens of that placeor Palatin,—
the greatest sufferers, however, are Messrs.
- Jaokson and William Gallsher. Bivesville also
- has sustained very great damage, ■■ Several of
the best honseß there have been carried' away. •
Newport, a, little village on the opposite bank of
the river, between that place and Morgantown, i
;WM completely inundated, .and we learn that one
or two of the houses were floated' off. The l
Tygart’s Valley river was not bo high as it was i
in 1840, and but little or no damage, therefore,
" has been sustained on that river. The Virginian
>. ottimates the loss in Marion county at $lOO,OOO.
, The Clarksbwg the bridge
oeroea the Elk at that place, on the Clarksburg
- and Phlllippi turnpike, was swept away, and it
was also with considerable difficulty that the
■■■■■■.. bridge across Elk, on the North-western turn
pikewassited. ThebridgeotthemonthofElk,
' on the North-western turnpike, was swept off, bnt
cahled toil tree and saved. On the West
, ; - Pork river, the destruction was very great. Two
■ bridges were carried away. One on the road to
> Billfold, and one on the North-western turnpike,
. Wo learn that the damage of Milford, Weston
' and PMDippl, has been very great.

■ Ges, Scott and the Compromise. —During a
- ■ - discussion, in the House of Representatives, on
■ tho Sth inst., Mr.. Ward, of Kcntnoky, said he
. “believed he wns authorised to say, from Gen.
■ ■ Seott himself, that he is opposed to any altera*
tioa*of the measures contained in theCompro
■■v;mUe.” ■ ■ ■ ■ . ■
ywThp above is exceedingly definite and sab
• isfactory—we don't think! Mr. Wann must
presume a great deal npon the guillibility of the.
American people, to suppose that they will swal
low such ridiculous stuff. If Gen. Score is in
favor of the Compromise measures, fugitive stave
taw and ail, let him come out like a man and
candidly say so. It is well known that tho Free
Soil and Abolition fanatics of the North are sup
porting Gen. Scott for the Presidency, solely on
the ground that he is supposed to be opposed to
thoBC measures. Seward, Weed, Greely, Ray
mond, &C-, would drop the General “likenhot
; potato,”if they “believed" that hois “opposed
toany alteration of any of tho mcasures con
■ tainedip the Compromise,’’and so would our con
scientious, neighbor, Deacon Wixite.
Tho Southern Whigs understand Gen. Scott’s
■ " position perfectly well, and they will not, can
not, consistently support him wbilo he remains
’ 'in the hands of the Abolitionists. The Hon.
Hcmpseev Mabshall, of Kentucky, one of the
ablest, cleverest and most influential Whigs in
Congress from the South, declares openly and
above board that Gen. Scott cannot carry Ken
tucky. Ho says of the General: . si
Ufa his present position, he cannot obtain the
: vote ofKentucfy, any more than he can command
the potters of heaven. What effect a change of hie
' position at this late day would produce, will be
mote accurately determinable when the new po
sition shall be taken.”
v Judging from present appearances, we think
it likely that the Abolition Whigs .of tho North
■ will out-general the Whigs of the . South, in the
' National Convention, and will nominate Gen.
Scott for the Presidency. Fillmore and IVeb
. -Sted .will ho thrust aside, because of their deter
■ mination to sustain the constitution, and frown
down fanaticism and treason.
Well, wo caro hnt little who'is the nominee of
the whig party (if such a party really has an ex
istence, which we think is extremely problems*
~■■■ tic). We can elect tho nominee of the Democratic
- National Convention, whether that nominee is
Jamss BuciTabas, or any other man, by an over
whelming majority. The -Democracy of tho
country were never more united than at the pre-
tent moment': The only controversy in our ranks
■ is in relation to men, which is n small matter, in*

U’KEItLY StONEY ARTICLE.
IVe have made diligent inquiries this week
amoDgst our monied meu respecting the state, of
the.money market, and. wo' have invariably re.
ceired as on answer, ~ “ there Is no " change.
tfbere' is no tronblo iu getting money nit-good I
paper, and those who complain because.they are
net-accommodated, may poisibly find out that
the fauliTigawith themselves. The-transactions
in stocks are light, but permanent paying stocks
still command a good premium, especially those
of our Banks. Strong efforts have been made
at Harrisburg to inereaso the Banking capital of
this city, hut as yet the movement has been un
attended with success.
Money is represented as Btiti lieing very abun
dant in the city of New York. The New York
Courier and Enquirer, of Saturday, speaking of
thohtock andmoney markets of that city, says:
—“ Tho amount of capital offering for. employ
ment, during the pastweek, appears to bo large
ly on the: increase ; in fact, we have seldom
known money so abundant as at the present time.
Some of tho- banks find it extremely -difficult to
employ their balances, which aro daily being in
creased from the diminished wants of their re
gular dealers, and tho scarcity of good paper in
the market Tho competition between the banks
and the regular buyers of paper have" brought
the ratqgjown helow the legal standard of in
terest, end first-class names naw pass readily at
our minimum quotations.. Borrowers arc less
numerous, and ■ from. present appearances, tho
demand for money must continue on the deorease
until the'commencement of the fall trade, in
August. : Doans, -payable at some distant period,
upon prime securities,.can he obtained at some-,

material: change. The banks continuo .to do oil
the first class short paper that offers, and street
rates are only higher where the risk is esteemed
greater and the time longer.” .
■ The Boston Post says that there is n plan in
contemplation by the New England country banks
to establish-a hank of redemption in Boston, of
which the stock is to be held by such banks os
employ it as agent
This is to save tho contribution of capital with
out interest mado by them at present to the Suf
folk bank, from the profits of which they derive
no benefit
::::::APRIL 1C
It is thus proposed to establish a bank in Bos
ton, with a capital of $1,000,009, to which each
country hank is: to subscribe a certain per cent
of its capital. The country banks, therefore,
will be stockholders. Tho business to bo con
ducted ou such terms to the country banks, so
as to make not more than fair dividends, and to
release the banks from thoso embarrassments
they at present labor under, and tho tax they
are now paying. The plan meets with the ap
probation of the oldest, and must acute, and ex
perienced banks. Par redemption is to be fully
sustained.
An Amendment to the appropriation bill has
been submitted in: tho House of Representatives
of Pennsylvania, nutlioriring the contraction of
a loan of 080,000 to redeem tho loan failing
due in 1852,1853 and 1854. The rate of inter
est not to eXeccd five per cent. Tho interest to
be paid in gold or silver, cither at London or
Philadelphia.
The Pennsylvania Senate has passed tho bills
incorporating; tho Erie City Bank, the Anthra
cite Bank, and tho Farmera’ and Mechanics'
Bank of Allentown. Thebill to extend the ebar
terof the Gaston Bonk also passed.
Parties holding bills of tho Com merciatßank,
New Jersey, most present them to tho rccoivcre,
before tho £2d Inst,- or they will bocomo utterly
worthless.
Banking in Wsconsia is taking a very unsafe
range. Tho Bouse of Assembly. has. passed a
general banking law, admitting railroad bonds
as a basis of hill issues. Under such an ar
rangement as this, no safe circulation can bo
expcctec. lVisconeun has also fixed 10 percent
ns the legal rate of interest until 1858, and sub
sequently” percent
.The Albany Northern Railroad Company,
havemade o purchaso of 3700 tons of English T.
Bail, through Mr. John E. Winslow, now in En

The Scioto and Stooklng Valley Railroad Com
pany have also purchased through tho same
agent, 2000 tons heavy T rail, with which; to
complete the construction of their road from

By our report of the tobacco market a very
heavy business has been done in Ohio tobacco
within the last three weeks, the sales reoching
the largest aggregate of 4,500 bbds: The great
bulk of these purchases woe made in fulfilment
of the contract between the-French government
a , nt * Messrs. Hothscmldr The ■whole quantity,
actually contracted for'is about 5,000 hhds..
I' -1 *" the stipulation that the quantity may bo
increased -a{ , the. discretion of the government'
one third more. As the French government took
none last year,. andthe contract this year was
mauo at very low figures, it is not improbable
that the excess stipulated for will be demanded.
aver,l S ß CoBt ofthisartiole is about forty-two
dollars per hogshead; so that the value of the
purchases of Ohio tobacco, above stated, is
about $190,000.
Baltimore is tlie principal, indeed wo may say
the exclusive, market for nearly all the Ohio to>
hoc CO sent to the seaboard. It here finds Toady
Sale in connexion wi ll thatrnisod in our own
State; . while our laws regulating the inspection
and storage in the - public warehouses offer in
ducements of advantage.not to be fouud else
where. On tho completion of the Baltimore and-
Ohio railroad to Wheeling, - the facilities-, of
cheap and rapid transportation will no doubt
draw tho entire crop of the; State of Ohio to
this . market, together with large quantities
grown in other Western States that now find a
market in New Orleans, where the climate In
many cases is found to be very injurious to the
quality, and the cbargcß of storage and inspec

Berolullan In. Steam Machinery.
The Washington correspondent of the St.
Louis Republican, thus speaks of a new inven
tion that has been before spoken of in our col
umns ■
A new engine has been built at New York,
which threatens a complete revolution in this
kiad of machinery. It has been' patented by
Kricson, the inventor, of the Ericaon prcpellor.
The engine has been built, and tried and works
well—and uses only ninety pounds of coal per
day. Boilers two dispensed with nltogethcr-r
and you can well Imagine what a revolution it
will effect in the ocean steam marine—where the
largo vessels carry 900 to 1000 tons of coal for
each voyage. There will be no danger of explo
sions. or .any thing of that sort. The engine
now built is intended for it largo sea Steamer; in
course of construction at New York, and the
wholo will cost over a million of dollars. Men
of capital would not bo likely to invest such a:
sum of money upots :t doubtful experiment,' and
you may receive this information with » reason
able assurance ofi its correctness. The engine
can be applied to our boats, and to your print
iug machines, and to every thing oftbe bind."
i Wssmsotov MoyptiwT.—The Washington
hfo&uincnt Managers hnvc adopted tho following
by-laws to encourage contributions:
l«t. In addition to the persona named in tho
constitution i.f the Society, every citizen who
contributes $23 shall become an honorary mem
ber: and every contributor of $lOO or morcehall
be eligible to the office of Vice President. ;
2d. Four marble panels shall he inserted in
the on which shall be inscribed the
name and place of residence of each contributor
of $l,OOO, $5OO $2OO, and $100; one panclto
be appropriated to those who contribute $lOOO
or more, one to those who contribute $5OO and
less than $lOOO, one to those who contribute
$2OO and less than $5OO, and tho fourth to con
tributers of $lOO and less than $2OO.
Timper.
Of all qualities, a sweet temper is perhaps
the one least cnUirtited in the lower ranks of
life. The peculiar - disposition is not watched ;
care is not taken to distinguish between tho pas
sionate child, the sulky, the obstinate, and the
timid. The children of the poor are allowed o
latitude of speech unknown among the higher
orders; and they ore free from the salutary re
straint imposed by what is called ‘‘ company.”
When in the enjoyment of foil health and
strength, the ungoverned temper of the poor is
one of their most striking faults; while their
resignation under affliction, whether mentally or
bodily, is tho point, of nil others, in which the
rich might, with advantage, study to imitate
them. —Talet of the Peerage, and the Pcaianlry.
Vr'uiTxuv-’s Railroad.—Mr. Rusk, from tho
Committee on Post Offices and Post Bonds, has
reported ‘‘a bill to sot apart and sell to Asa
Whitney, of New York, a portion of tho public
lands to cnabla him to construct a railroad from
Lake Michigan, on the Mississippi river, to the
Pacific ocean: also to set apart and. sell a por
tion of the public lands to construct a railroad
from a point on the west bank of tho Mississippi,
north of the neighborhood of Memphis, in Ten
nessee, to run thonco to Bio del Norto and to the
Pacific ocotrn, to Snn Diego . and San Francisco,
or to some harbor suitable for commerce.”
Puzzked.— Tcrenco O’Flaherty was recounting
tho particulars of n convivial gathering at which
he -was present The party consisted of four
persons, and he endeavored to recall their names:
—“ The two Grogans was one; mcself was two;
Mike Finn was three, and—and—who the divil
was the four ?. Lot me see (counting his fingers)
—the two Crogans was one; Mike Finn was two;
meself was three—and—bogob! thero wns four
of us; but SL Patrick couldn’t tell the name of
the other. Now its mcself has it: Mike Finn
was one, the two: Crogans was two, mcself was.
three—and—and—be mo sowl, I think there was
but three of ub after all! ”

Georoia and Mississippi.— lt is most grati

Bights and Union, voted together ; whilo Mr.
Jackßon, the States Bights member from Geor

victory.

The Aon of Sheep.—Tho ago of sheep may
bo known by ihc front teeth. They are eight in
number, and appear the first year all .of ,the same
size. In the second year the two middle ones
fail blit, and their place is supplied by new teeth,
which may be easily distinguished by their larg
er site. In the third year twootber small teeth,
one bn each side, fail oat, and are replaced by
two large ones,. so that there ore now four large
teeth in the middle, and two pointed ones on
each side. In the fourth year this large teeth
are six in number, and only two small ones re
main. one at each range. In the fifth year the
remaining small teeth ore lost, and the whole
front teeth are large. In, tho sixth year the
whole begin to be worn, and in the seventh year,
sometimes sooner, some fall ont, or are broken.
It is said that the teeth of ewes . begin to decay
at five or six; thoso of wethers at seven, and
those of rams at eight. Sheep sometimes con
tinue strong and produetive nntU fourteen or six
teen years old, nnd occasionally longer.
Skill is Farming.—Skill Odds more to the
profits of farming than hard work.: In the arti
cle of batter, for instance, tho samo outlay is
required, or nearly the same, to make a hundred
pounds of poor butter os would be required, or
nearly the same, to make a hundred pounds of
that which is good. But, when the two articles
are marketed, there maybe five or six dollars of
clear extra profit in the pocket of the skilful
dairyman. Tho importance of scientific knowl
edge is realized by those who have: found-such
benefits as is noted above in nearly every depart
ment of: their, labor.
How to Catch a Sheep.—ln catching a sheep,
never seize them by the wool on tho back, as it
hurts them exceedingly, and has, in somo esses,
been known to kill them particularly in hot
weather, if they are large nnd fnt Indeed, the
best way is to avoid tho wool altogether, and to
accustom yourself to take them by the hind leg,
or, what is still better, by the neck, placing one
hand Under'the jaw, and the other at the back
of tho ears; by lifting up the head, a child may
hold almost any sheep.

ID* Dr. M'Lane'a Llv«r PUli—Were not,
.like die quack nostrum* of the day, got up wi'.ha view
to profit, but were discovered, alter many yean of- stu
dy, by <*qe of the first physicians in the United States
and used in his private practice. Their marked success
elicited the most unqualified approbation of physicians
asd others who had witnessed iheir effects. Possessing
all the sensitive feelings of a thorough-bred pbysioiam
Dr. M’Lane dreaded being classed with die shallow
pretenders who crowd dm columns of the newspapers
with puff’s of “ sovereign remedies, 1 ’ and far a long lime
declined the requests of many that he wonld proclaim
his great remedy (o the public; but, finally, alter much
persuasion on the part of physicians and others who
hud witnessed the wonderful cures effected by the Liver
Pills, he consented.to prepare it for general use. The
following certificate; from Dr. Morgan, will bear us ont
in this statement; ills also valuable as medical testi
mony of the ellicaay at ihcsoFilts:—
“This is to certify that 1 have been associated with
Dr. M’Lane, in the practice of medicine, for nearly two
years and a half. 1 have had.many opportunities of
witnessing the good effects of his Liver Pills; and I be
lieve they have cured and relieved a much larger pro
portion or the diseases of the Liver, than I have known
cured and relieved by any other coarse of treatment.
