Is- I Post-Office Departments-Lottery Circu iars. The frequent and pertinacious attempt of those who are, or pretend to bo, keep ers of lottery offices, to induce Postmas ters, or their assistants, to act as their a gents, and the enormous amount of the schemes of real or fictitious lotteries sent by them through the mails, and address ed to Postmasters, render it peculiarly appropriate at this time to invito the at tention of all Postmasters and their as- sistants to the 6th section of the act o Congress approved March 2, 1827. That section declares "that no Post master shall act as agent for lottorv offi ces, or under any color of purchase, or otherwise, venu lottery tickets; nor shall any Postmaster receive free of postage, or iranh, lottery schemes, circulars or tickets. For a violation of this nrnnrximt tficjxrson offending shall suffer ajicnally ty jijiy aouars." The order of the Denartmenfc is. th.it tit all such lottery schemes, circul ars or uicKcts, addressed either to a Postmaster, 'must hereafter be excluded from the mail, together with all other transient matter .

Some time since, William Stavely, of ducks county, bought a lot of young caivcs, some ninety in number, lroni Now Jersey. Two or three weeks aero, a dis ease broke out amongst them, which car ried off a number before the nature of it could be discovered. Mr. Stavelv had homo of them examined after death, when the cause appeared to be a collection of small worms in the windpipe and lunjrs Iu some of the cases, the lungs were very much diseased and hardened, makin" respiration almost impossible. It has been found that a dose of turpentine, about a table spoonful, administered as soon as the disease appeared, is au effectual rem edy,. affording almost imniedfcto relief in the worst cases. Extraordinary Flying Machine. The following curious statement ap pears in Paris Pcdric. It sounds rather fishy, but in these telegraphio times we niubt not be too incredlous: "The Aca demy of Sciences is a good deal interest ed at the present time by the invention of a flying machine by Don Diego de Sal amanca. With this machine Don Diego's daughter, Kosnnna, rose in the air, some time ago, at Madrid, to the great aston ishment of the Spaniards, who are but very little accustomed to this sort of mir acle. Don Diego and his daughter are about to arrive at Paris to show the ef fects of bis marvelous invention. The machine is very simple. It consists in a case two feet long and one foot wide, a dapted to a band of leather round the waist buckled behind. The two iron rods fastened to the case support a small piece of wood, on which the feet repose. The case contains a simple and ingenious mechanism, similar to that employed in the automaton in motion. The mechan ism is worked by means of a handle. It sets in motion two large wings, ten feet long, made of very thin caoutchouc cover ed with feathers; and the wings may be bo worked as to procure vertical, per pendicular, or horizontal flying. The number of turns given to the handle de termines the height to which it is desired to go. The handle has to be turned ev ery quarter of a league to regulate the distance. The operation of turning lasts about a minute. Horizontal flying is the most difficult. The wings beat the air like the oars of a boat, or rather as the foot of a swan when it swims. By means of this curious machine a man can go al most as rapidly as a carrierpigeon from the Hotel de Ville to the Arcade Triom phe in eight minutes, and in half an hour to Versailles. Although greatly aston ished at this new invention, several mem bers of the Academy have pointed out the inconvenience of bringing it into gen eral ute. In point of fact, there will be no security for any one, if by the aid of such machines all our usages and customs be overthrown, and if malefactors can fly upon the roofs of houses, and afterward get into apartments and commit all sorts of depredations. It will be very curious to see policemen in France and England pursuing thieves in the air in order to lock them up on earth. It appears that the year 1655 promises us all sorts of marvel"." Tight between a Rattlesnake and Hogs. The Stale Rights Democrat, published at Elba, Ala., narrates the following: "Iwo gentlemen were lately in the woods when their attention was attracted by an uproarious noise of hogs. Thinking that something un common was to pay, they repaired to the spot, and found ththe hogs had been in a light with a very large rattlesnake. The fight, from appearance, had been a long and desper ate one. The snake was torn to pieces, three hogs dead and a fourth a dying. They say that as the last hog would groan, the snake would raise his head, being unable to do any thing else. The snake and fourth hog soon died. They report that for thirty yards a- round, the grass and ground was torn up. The snake was six and a half or seven leet long. The hogs, in the fight, had demolished all the rattles except two." Death of a Child from Drinking Gin. A few days since the father of a family resi ding in North Margin street, Boston, sent for a half pint of gin, which in some way got in to the hands of his son, a fine boy of four years, who, unknown to his parents, drank a "(Considerable portion of it, was soon after seized .with epaems, and in a short time died. A physician called in gave it as his opinion that the child died from theeffectsof the gin upon his system. Judge Campbell's Post Masters. No less than eleven Post Masters in Ohio, ap pointed by Judge Campbell, have been ar rested for atealing money from the mail. Bribery in Kansas. The St. Louis Democrat says, 'those representatives who voted in favor of the Atchison and Kick npootferry companies, received a free pass for thempclves and horses for the next twenty years V . Blessing to the Country. ' A lady now on a visit to Paris. Tenn essee, has written to a friend here some particulars of a remarkablo and exem plary matron of that vicinitv. which Dar tioulars have been communicated to us as worthy ot a place in our columns. The matron m question is a Mrs. D , now eighty-seyen years old. She had twenty three living children, and prayed to the good Lord to give her one more, to make the round and goodly number of two doz en. Besides these, she has raised four teen orphan children. She has educated thirty children her own and a portion ot the orphans and for many years sent nineteen children to school in Pans, and their dinners with them. She says tha none of those she has reared and educat ed have ever disgraced her or themselves The girls have all married well, and are rich, Iho boys have all done well one of her orphan inotegc has been in Con gress, several others in the State Legis lature; there are Mindry Colonels, &c, a mong them, and all aro highly respecta ble. We fully agree with the friend who communicates these particulars to us, that thoy are worthy of pubhcalion.- Indianapdis Journal. IQ3 The infamous Judge Kane, of the U. District Court at Philadelphia, pronounced a new opinion in the Pass- more Williamson case, last week which makes every State a Slave State for pur poses of transit; which in effect makes each a Slavo State for all purposes, in de fiance of its own constitution and laws. Iu taking this ground, (says the Tri bune.) J udge Kane oontradicts an unbrok en chain of judicial decisions mosi of them pronounced by slaveholding judges for the last three-quarters of a century. lhat property in men (unlike other pro perty) is the creature of municipal law, and is bounded by the jurisdiction of that aw that a slave taken by his master in to a Free State beoomes thereby free, and cannot be remanded into Slavery that even the voluntary return of that slave into bondage cannot invalidate his right to freedom has been adjudged again and again. But Judge Kane reverses all this, and by his Opinion practically converts all the Free States into Slave State?; for if any slaveholder have a common-law right to take his slaves to New- York for the purpose of shipping them thence to New-Orleans or Galveston, he has a right to work them there while they are awaiting a passage, and to hold on six months for the sailing of the vessel of his choice and at last take them back f he sees fit. If Judge Kane's opinion is aw, then New-York is a Slave State this moment so is every other State and they cannot help it. Are the free people of the North pre pared to assent to a doctrine so monstrous? Are they willing to upset all bygone ad- udication of this question, and allow slaveholders to enjoy immunities and priv- leges m their very midst of which they hemselves are constitutionally deprived? Surely the mere statement of such a le gal and political absurdity shows it to be as outrageous a fallacy as ever was put orth by a judicial tool of the slave pow- er. Judge lvane s upmion is an insult o the common sense of Mankind. If we had any warrant lor the assertion, we should pronounce him a fool; but knave ry is so palpably at the bottom of his le gal sophistry, that there is no mistaking jthe rascally stuff of which its warp and wool are composed. Ttc Slianaliai Nuisance in a Neio Suzpe. In a letter describing the curi osities exhibited at the Connecticut State Fair, last week, we find the following items: Eli Wright, of Glastonbury shows a ot of little-bodied animals, half covered with hair, which he calls China or Shang hai sheep. Shey are meaner than Shang hai chickens. The only virtue claimed or them is that they will breed like rab bits. Death should be their instant doom, before they feed any more.
