obtain from Government a grant of the Crciwn tithes

with expense, and that a considerable delay must
ensue before it could be effected, his Lordship aban

A schism has taken place in the National Coo
vention, and the mare violent members have formed
another society, called the 'Democratic Association"
at one of the private meetings of which, Harvey
[who recently fig uieci at Norwich] drew forth a dag
ger ; and on another occasion a resolution was peas
ed, declaring ''that if the convention did its duty,
the People's rightii would be secured in less than a
month." This resolution having given offence to
the Convention, a Tote of censure on the three dele
gates who promoulid its adoption was on the 6th inst.
passed 'by 15 to ID, and on the fith a motion was
made for their eiMulsion ; but an amendment was
carried, that no further notice should be taken of
their conduct. Dr. Tayloi, the colleague of Mr. -
Harvey, who piroscieed the amendment, disputed their
right to expel a representative, but said he would in
form "his constit4nts, the Great Northerp Union,"
what he thought bf the conduct of Mr. Harvey:—
At a meeting of the Dembcratic Association on the
same day, one Williams, a baker, said that, much as
the'employment bf faggots and daggers had beam.
condemned, he thought it better ler the People to
redress their wrodgs by such weapons than to re
main any longer in hopeless Seery. Harvey fol
lowed, and advised the people to arm, sad to resist •
to the death the iutroduction of the Poor Law, or of
a rural pplice, and any attempt to deprive them of
their arms. Both the Speakers were loudly cheered.
The directors of the London and,Birmingham
Railway have signified their intention to apply to
Parliament for power to raise X 1,000,00 0. of addi
Lionel capital by the creation ofsiew shires. The
state of that great concern stands thus :—The first
subscription was; for 25,000 shares of £lOO each
making £2,500,00 in all has been paid. The di
rectors next proceeded to issue bonds at three seper
' ate periods, the fifet set amounting to 1,000,000 the
second to 119,0001 and the third to 500,0001. All
I ,
these aids to so sp adid an undertaking, may have
sufficient grounds o rest on—there is no: complaint
on that score ; bbd the difficulty is, as there is yet
250,0001 on the 001 shares, and 514000• on the 25
shares, not yet celled up, to comprehend why the
whole subscriptifms. are not y et

Daring and Murderous Assault.—Oh the night
of Monday last,ibetween 8 and 9 o'cloCk. as Mr,
Kelso, printer, of this town, was returning to his
residence, he was waylaid in Mrlean's fields, be
tween Adelaide Place and Cromac Bridge, by one
of his own work ten, whom he had discharged from
his employ men( knocked down, and desperately
wounded by repeated blows on the head inflicted
with a hemmer. He was soon after discovered, and
conveyed to Surgeon Aicken's, where his wounds
were dressed, spd he is now, we are happy to on
aerstand, in a favourable way. The person who
committed this iatrocious and unprovoked outrage
has been arrest and sent to person. preparatory w
trial.
Threatening ilistices.—For some days past threat

ble gentlemen in the neighbourhood of Muchmore
and Killead. aka this has, hitherto, been one olthe
most' peaceable idiatricts in Ireland, wb Unlit its
character may tie preserved, through the active in.

entered into extficasive of confidence in, and thanks

Outrages in iCounty Martagium—On Monday
night s last, a large puty. e armed with Bludgeons, &c.
entered the bodge of a respectable Protestant farm
er and voter, nained.Williamson, in the townlaild of
Mount Carmeili pariah df Annadmilen, and knocked
him,daavo, beat, him and his son and daughter, in a
moat dreadful Manner,and robbed him of a gun.—
They then proceeded to the adjoining , town-lend,
Carmen, broke: open the house of another Protest
ant, and treated him 'arid his wife in the most

barous manner', and ebbed him of his arras. The
information has bee given to Captain Wilcox, who

to trace the depredlitori.-
The Rev. Mr. Dill, 'efe f lonrnel, complains that

Wreck of the Forfasshire.—An•oik platik, form.
lug part of the atern•of the above unfortunate revel
has been washed ashore on the estate of the Most
Noble the Marquis of Norinanby, called Kettleness,
and near to Mulgrave Castle : On the plank, which
is now in the possession of Mr. John Smitk,Of Lyih

"Forfarabire, Dundee," one end ofwhich is broken
off, taking away the two final etas of the word Dun

of listen has been in the water, and the distance tt

Plana/ Rarity.—A splendid imeeirmen of the
Rhododendon Arbon= is at present iii flower in
the orange-house connected with the well. kept gard
ens at OaHy,' the residence of the member for the
Stowartry of . Kireudbright. Although this magni
ficent plant is not more than five feet high, it exhib•
its twenty two flower buds, most of which are fully
expanded. A' townsman who was on the spot the
other day stated in oar hearing, 'it is the loveli4t
floral gem I ever beheld, andil-weild again most
willingly deviate for miles from the public road to
witness a 'similar specimen of the beauties of na
ture." Botanists and naturalists are well aware
that the flowering species of the plant in question
ere not only rare, but require to be nursed with the
greatest 'attention ; but when they do put their
splendid petals forth, they amply requite all the
pairs which skill can suggest or expense bestow.
Steam Boat Accidents.—We observe from en En
glish provincial paper, the (Bolton-Chronicle,) that
Government has appointed two gentlemen, Captain
Pringle, R. E., and Joshua Parke., civil engineer
to inquire into, and report - upon the nature!, causes,
and practicable methods for the prevention - of acci
dents to lie and property, arising from efplosiond
-of boilers.

for his able and fnithtul ministerial services among

the long unappreciated minerals of Ayrshire are

that the ironstone on the property of Colonel Blair

Horace Pka/pole mentions in one of hit - letters
that a Welsh ' member once had audience of his

every half minute pcior Sir Robert winced and said
mildly, "Take care, you have cut mezontil at length
the Welshman drew his sword and swore, ••If you

can bear it I cannot." •
Aberstwyth.—On Friday, the 18th instant, the
inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood, in con
sideration of the great services rendefed by the late
mayor, John Hughes, Esq., during his mayorality
for two successive years, invited him to . a public din
ner, provided at the Gogerddan Arms, on which oc
casion be was presented with a very handsome and
massive Salver and Tea Service.
Fatal Colliery Aecident.—A melancholly acci
dent occurred in the Dinas Colliery, near Newbridge
a short time ago. A stone of great weight, at least
fifty tons, fell on two men 'and a lad, and instantly
terminated their lives. The roof is one of the very
best in the whole coal district ; the stall was only a
bove six yards wide, being newly turned ; but a joint
occurring just below the place where the coal was
removed, occasioned the tragical event, which no hu-
Man care averted.
Cardiff .Library.—The-magnificent collection of
books presented to the Cardiff Library and Scientif
ic Institution, by the Lord Bishop of Llandaff, has
safely reached his destination ; and the volomes have
been arranged in the library by the' secretaries. It
consists of One hundred and ninety-six volumes,
,most elegantly bound in calf, and lettered, extra.
Another Outrage on the Rev. Richard MOrgan.--
In the latter end of December last, we noticed

REMEDY FOR BURNS.
Edit;ir U. S. Gazette,—
Dear Sir—l .have so seen remedies for hu
man ills given to the new pens, and= then at once
consigned to oblivion, -that • have for a great while
hesitated to present this remedy to the public. For
fourteen years I have preseribed it r emd witnessed its
healing effects. I deliberstbly say from fourteen
years experience,- that no disease or injury to tke hu
man system has a more certain remedy than this for
the most distressing of all*uies, that of scalds and
burns. The relief is altoos instantaneous; from a
minute or too to a half an boar, will usually find a
full relief from pain. Nolu cto of the extent of the,

bead of boiling water, prepared for scalding the •
des from swine. The entire prison and limbs ef the
boy. passed under the welding watereip to the chin,
so as to scald his whole neck. On 'removing - his
clothes, nearly all his skin followed from 'his neck,
hands, arms, chest, back, abdomen, and almost every
bit of skin from his lower extremities; hi this de
plorable condition literally flayed alive with scald
ing water, the remedy was proniptly!Tlied, as a
momentary application until the physicians should
arrive, Two eminent:yhysicians soon came, and on
learning the extent of the scald, pronounced it a cer
tainly fatal case, and directed the boy to remain with
the remedy over him Until he should die. In six
weeks he was restored quite well, with scarcely -a
scar on any part of person orlinibs. The rem
edy increases in value from the fact, that under al
most all circumstance It may be obtained. It is as
follows :—Take soot from a chimney where wood
is burned, rub it fine, and mix one pert soot to three
parts or nearly so of hog's lard, fresh Mater, or any
kind of fresh greese, that is not salted ; spread this
•on linen or muslin, or any cotton cloth far easier and
More perfect adaption. If in very extensive burns
or scalds, the cloth should be torn into strips before
putting over the scald: Let the remedy be freely
and fully applied, so as to perfectly cover all, the
burned parts: No other application it required nn
tiL the patient is well, except to apply fresh applica
tions of the soot and lard, &c.
In steamboat explosions, this remedy can in near
ly all cases be at once applied, and if 'done many
valuable lives pill be saved, and a vast amount of
sufferisik alleviated.
• If you and the corps editorial, will hand this rem
edy around our country ; and invite attention to it,
and that also those who use it may give their testi
mony for or against, I feel assured that in a few
months, this moat efficatious and almost unfailing.
remedy will be every. Acre known and used in the
United States. '
A PHYSICIAN OF PHILADELPHIA
T•tzirr Juvri • iNDUSTIII..--More is to be e ip eet _
ed from laborious mediocrity than from the erratic
efforts of a wayward genius. There may he a bar
levin in mind as well as in body ; and I always con
sider him to have been of this character, who boast
ed that he could throw off a hundred verses while
stahtlincon one leg. It is not to such a.source as
this we are indebted for good poetry. Demosthenes
elaborated sentence after sentence, and Newton rose
to the heavens by the steps of geometry, and said at
the close of his career, that it was only in thehabit
of patient thinking he was concious of differing from
other men. It is generally thought that men are
signalized more by talent than by industry ; it is felt
to be a vulgarizing of genius to attribute it to any
thing.but direct inspiration from heaven ;" they over
look the steady and preserving devotion of mind to
one subject. There are higher and lower walks in
scholarship; tr,t the highest is a walk of labor.
We are often led into a contrary opinion, by look
ing at the ma initude of the .object in its finished
state ; such as the Principia of Newton, and the pyr
amids of Egypt ; without reflecting on the gradual,
continuous, I had almost said creeping progress, by
which they giew into objects of the greatest mag
nificence in tht literary and physical world. In the
one case, indeed, we may fancy the chissel which
wroug h t e a ch successive stone; but in the other we
cannot trace the process by which the philosopher.
was raise kfrom one landing place to another, till he
soared to his towering elevation ; it seems as if the
work was produced at the bidding of a magician.
But Newton has left as a legacy the assurance, that
he did not attain his elevation by dint of a heaven
born inspiration. out of the reach of many, but by .
dint of a homely virtue within the teach of all.—
Chalmers.
TBIL Rica A.VD THE Pooa.—ln relation to the
efforts of mischievous demagogues, to array the poor
against the rich, and to persuade the former that his
interests are opposed to the latter, the following op
portune remarks are found in an address from a de
mocratic association in Philadelphia. They are a
just and severe• rebuke!
He who counsels hostility egaintt wealth, is an
enemy to his race—he is an enemy to, every man
Who desires to improve his Condition and partake of
the business of Providence—he is an enemy to- his
own children, for in this country_the poor are the fa
thers of the rich. The hardy sons of toil and pover
ty—those who earn and save—are those who accu
mulate and enjoy. He who would undermine the
the security of property and declare lower against cap
ital, would arrest the march of impro4ernent and of
mind; lay an embargo upon every ship in port; stop
the busy wheels of industry ; put out the fires of the
forge and of the steatr_ engine shut up the shop of
every mechanic, and, finally, transform civilized na
tions into hordes of savages, and countries glittering
in the sun light of improvement, into dark and dis
mal forest."

Indictment for murder on the high seas, on board
the brig Braganza.
The-evidence against the accusnil was eoncludea
at 9 o'clock last evening. The principle facts- elici
ted are as follows :
The brig Capt. Armel, T. Turley, sailed from
Philadelphia, in July, 1838, which port she bad put
into in distress, being originally from Port Rico,
bound to Genoa, with a cargo of sugar. 'On the sth
of August,. the 4ecood mate, Rob't Moir, was awa
kened by cries of sunder, while sleeping in his state
room.
Moir rushed on deck, and there beheld the first
.mate, Vanderslice, lying on the deck bleeding, with
two wounds on his head. Me obseried immediate.
ly after, the Capt. engaged ink struggle with some
of the crew. Capt. Turley was armed with a cut
lass, with which he wounded one of the mutineers,
Ver Bremen. The Capt. was owniowered and cost
into the sea. He regained the brig, and begged his
life for the sake of his wife, but was remorselessly
again thrown overboard. He, however, once more
mad e the brig, and gained the main chains, but was
thrust offend drowned. •
There were on board mai' , time, independent of
the crew, Mr. Diehl, the opener ofthevessel,and his
wife, and the wife of Capt:Tinleri. These were be

THE FORTUNES OF A COUNTRY GIRL
=EI
One day, I will not say how many year. ago, for
Fintend to be very mysterious for a time with 'my
readers—a young woman stepped flew a country
wagon, that had just arrived at the yard gate of the
Chelsea Inn, the Goat and the Compasses, a name
formed by corrupting time, 'out of the pious original
"God encompasseth us.". The young woman seem
ed about the age of 18, and was decently dressed,
though in the plainest rustic fashion of the times.,
She was well formed and well lOoking, both form
and looks giving indications of the ruddy health
consequent upon exposure to sun apd air in the coun
try. After 'stepping from the wagon, which the dri
ver immediately led into the court yard the girittood
for a moment in apparent uncertainty whether to go,
when the mistress of the inn, who had come .ti> the
door, observed her hesitation, and asked her to enter
and take rest. The young woman readily obeyed
the invitation, and SOON by the kindness of the land
lady, found herself by the fireside of a nicely sanded
parlor, and wherewithal:4o refresh herself after a
long and tedious jourhey.
" And so my poor girl," said the landlady, after
having heard, in remit' for her kindness, the whole
particulars of the young woman's situation and his
tory, "so thou hest come all this way to seek ser
vice, and hest no friend but John Hodge, the wag
oner I Trely, he is like to. give thee but small help,
wench, towards getting a place. "
Is service, then, difficult to be hadl " askedthe
young woman sadly.
• Ala.; many, good situations, at least, are hard to
find. But have a good heart, child, " said the land
lady, and, as she continued, she looked around her
with an ail' of pride and dignity ; and- I left the
country a young thing just like thyself, with as lit
tle to look to. But 'tisn't every one for certain, that
must look for such a fortune, and in any case it must
be wrought for. I showed myself a good servant,
before my poor old Jacob, heaven rest his soul, made
me mistress of the Goat and Compasses. So mind
thee, girl —"
The landlady's speech might have gone on a long
way ; for the dame laved well the sound of her own
tongue, but for the interruption occasioned by the
entrance of a gentleman, when the landlady rose and
welcomed him heartily.
44 Ha! dame," said the new comer, who was a
stout, respectable attired person of middle age, "bow
sells die good Ms 1 Scarcely a drop. left in Lby- cel
lars, I hope I
4. Enough left to give your worship a 'draught af
ter a long walk," as she rose to fulfil the promise
implied in her words.
441 walked not, " was the gentleman's return, but
took a pair of oars, dame, down the river. Thou
knowest I always come to Chelsea myself to ere if
- -
thou lackeat any thing. "
44 Ati, sir, " replied the landlady, 44 and it is by
that way of doing business that you have made your
self, as all the city says, the richest man in the
Brewer's Corporation, if not in all London itself. "
r 4 Well, dame, the bettor for me if itis so, " said
the brewer, with a smile ; 44 but let as have the mug,
and this quite pretty friend of thine * shall pleasure
us by tasting with us."
The landlady was not long in producing a stoup
of ale, knowing that her visitor never set an example
hurtful to his own interest by countenancing the
consumption of foreign spirits. •
u Right, hoilteas, " said the brewer, when he had
tasted it, well made and well kept, rind that is giv
ing both thee and me our dues. Now pretty one, "
said he, filling one of the measure of glasses which
had been placed beside the stoup, "wilt thou drink
this to thy sweetheart's health I "
+The_ poor country girl, to whom this was address
ed, declined the proffered civility,sad with a blush ;
but the landlady exclaimed, ecitne v ailly wench,
drink his worship's health; he is more. likely to get
thee a 'serviced it so pleased hiairthanJohn.liodge,

This girl basroome many a mile," continued
the hostess, o to seek a place in town, that'shemsy

■ Upon thy prophesy, hostess, will I take her in
