RESIGNATION OF GOV.SIIANNON.
Governor Shannon ofOln'o, having been
t a ipjunted by President Tyler Minister to
'Mysjco, has resigned the office of Govern
oso lhal Stale; and we presunm the Demo
TMid 'Duckeyea' aro not all sorry. T.W.
Ifhntoy, Speaker of the Senate ( Demo
'cai).has become Governor by virtue of the
t5tuiitii)n. anu lias entcreu upon tlie tils
fJrfcfge of his duties. Mr. Hartley i the
' sy Mordecai Hartley, the present Whip
irtarfOftiute for the same office.
Curious. Thero nro strong doubt
whether Mr. Harper, the Mayor elect of
New York, ran constitutionally discharge
the duties of his office 83 it is alleged that
lie arrived in this country from England
when about four years of age, and has nev.
rr taken out letters of naturalization.
A strange anomaly it would present, should
it be made to appear that the Native Jlmcr
icens had elevated to offico an unnalurali
zed foreigner
Infanticide in China. From the inves
tigation made by the Rev. David Abeel,
Missionary to China, it appears that pro
bably about one third or nno fourth nf nil
the female children of that country are slain
soon after birth.
A machine by which old woollen rag?
can be. converted into superfine cloth, nt a
.vine of money and labor, has been intio
duced into this country finm England.
The cloth made in this way is rotten, and
liable to tear very easily.
Manufacturing Artificial Marble.
The Fittsbiug Chrnnirle says an individual
lias a mode of manufacturing marble which
t pronounced superior to any oilier artifi
cial itona or marble in use, and will-super
cede the use nf lime mortar in the varied
processes of plastering, will be extensively
used for stucco work, mosaic, statuary,
mantle-pieces; tablo slabs, atmospheric and
hydraulic cement, rnnfing of houses, paving
of streets, &c. It will set or harden in six
hours wlion applied in plastering houses.
It will resist the action uf atmospheric heat,
damp, frost, &c , and is susceptible of a
high polish, and can be manufactured at a
cost little exceeding ordinary lime mortar.
The Magnetic V'elegraph. .The Nation
nl Intelligencer says; "Considerable pro.
tress has been made in the construction of
the Magnetic; Telegraph, the invention of
Professor S. F, B. Morse, upon which a
test experiment i3 being made under the
authority of an act of Congress. Tho line
of conductors is constructed as far on fiom
Washington as to a point on tho lino of thr
v railroad opposite lo the residence of C. H.
Jalvert, Esq (six miles) and the work is
making progrexs at tho rata of about n mill
a day. A trial of it was made on Tuesday
ss ihe cars pasaed Mr. Calveit's by commu
nicatir.g the fact of their passage lo the point
al which the line begins in Washington;
and an answer, acknowledging tho receipt
of tho in lelligence, was received back in
t wo or ihree seconds."
IMPORTS OF SPECIE.
From a table in Hunt's Merchants' Mag
jizino, furnished from the Treasury Depari
ment, it appears tint tho amount of specif
imported into ihe United Statrs in the yeai
1843. was S23 7.I2 031. Of this am'fUH'
817,251.470 were in gold, and SO. 33. 075

MORE OF THE WHIGS ELEC
TlOiVEERING GAME.
Tho reader will probably remember hnu
much capital tho WMl's made in lolO In
illuming t It u endorsement uf clergymen
for lluir candidate. I hey have already ut
tempted the same course in 1843. Rut
they do not find it quite so easy lo procure
tho lufititnce of the clergy in favor uf the
western duellist as they did fur tho moral
and amiable Ilairtson. Still Ihey feel the
importance of securing this influential and
weighty portion ol our citizens, and to pro
euro it has fallen on tho old gamp of pipe
aying, for winch they are so justly distiti
guished. Tho following letter jrom l)t
Gapers, n distinguished minister of the
iVmhodisl churuli i) Hie West will show to
what means they have rosnrled in older to
obtain tho voles of the religious community
for their candidate. It seems that n forged
letter, purporting to have been written by
l)r Capers, and glorifying Henry Clay, lies
been put in circulation Newark Morning

from a speech said to have been delivered
by Dr Gapers, 'before the whig convention
of Alabama last year 1 tic speech is high

Now, of the merits of this speech as a

im in tiuli concerned about the mutter of its

thete is no peculiarity of this State more
congenial to mv lasto and feelings, or which
my understanding more entirely approves,
than that which makes it scandalous for
ministers, of the gospel to be bandying poli
tics 1 had the mortification to hear, some
nine months ago; that polnical speeches, nl
the same party character as the present and
from the same quarter, were imputed to me;
and 1 then exculpated myself (hs I hoped)
through the Southern Christian Advocate
uut it seems I could not gain the ear ol
political editors through the channel; and I

VALUE OF CORRESPONDENCE
It is proverbial at VVashington, that tlu
people there, both citizens and members
f Congress, are in a great measure de
pendant upon Ihe Iclter-wi iters station
ed there by the more distant pi ess, for n
knowledge of most of Ihe local news &
lomestic gosip, as it returns in the
published coi respondencc. This fact?
reminds uj of another which may be
ited in apt illustration. A seruean'
serving under the Duke uf Cumbei I and.
in thu Lowlands in 17-15, wrote to hi.
wife in London 'Send me some news-
tpeis, that I m ly learn where we are

OUTRAGE AND DEATH.
Three men are in jail at Schenectady
on a cnarne ol causing Hie death ol a
woman named Jane Oillespie, of Oswc-
i;o, on the LS I ult. I he lie Hector
ays, they took the woman from a wagon
nd compelled her to follow them to
this city, on foot through Ihe mud.
rriveil hero, ihey took her lo an un
occupied house in iiuvernoi a lane,
near the river, where they remained all
night, abusing her person. On Ihe
morning of the 23d, at about seven
'clock, screams of distress were heard
to is-fiie from the house and thoic who
arrived Iheie, witnessed an awful ?pec
'acle tho woman lying on ihe flooi,her
clothing entirely burnt from her, sod sh-
literally roasted alive! bhe was im
mediately taken to the alms-houe, where
she was propel ly cared for& she linger
ed till tho morning in great agony when
she expired.
Tieinenduus Explosion al Norwich,

On Satiuday afternoon, the citizens of

i tietnendnus concussion, which shook
their buildings with great violence, and oc
casioned considerable damage in the ties
ruction of cro. kery and window glass.
Wtrihuling it lo the explosion of powder
stored in a building erected for lhal purpnM

tou n many persons repaired thither to a?
erlain tlie i;auu and consequence of the
-aiastrophp. They found the house. which
lad contained between eighty and a hundred
kegs of powder, a mass of ruins. In ilt
vicinity were the bodies of four bnys; and
'hough life was not oxtinci, they had lieen
dunned into a state of insensibility, and
were incapable of rendering any account of
dm disaster. Two of them, at least, are
probably fatally injured, nnd it is doubtful
whether more than one of the four can sur
vive. It is probable that playing "ith pow
lur in the neighborhood, ihey communicat
