Before closing lot me litetition Ort inci
dent in connection with the , Patent Office.
Few persons visit Washington Without ta
king a stroll through it ; mere cakes stran
gers are seen in it daily. Bawrilay morn
ing. 30th tilt., an elderly and plainly dres
sed gentleman (accompanied by a young
one of twenty-two or three) stepped into
this museum of nsuiral and artificial me
chim bons, and, after spending a little time
in the Commissioner's TOM, was attended
Illi.ough , the various apartments. The
pott•ftdieit of drawings were opened before
Wilt Ilfid among them 60M: splendid plates
of a rotary steam-engine invented by Mr.
Thompson, of New York ; next, models
of 'pending applications in the offices of
the Welt:mist and Examiners, were shown
him, and of these Iu anticipated the value
of simM, and the tickets of others. Thence
his'aumition was directed to the saloon of
Models, wherein is embodied in visible and
tangible forms, a mass of mental creations
whose value no superficial observer can e
sun begin to appreciate.
Glancing over the cases (months might be
spent over every one) in which every pro
fession of civilized society is represented
by one or more devices, he now and then
paused to remark on such as related to the
arts of Peace—industrial and ornate—pas
sed furtively by those connected with War.
and Mused his inquiries by asking "Where's
yew% best millet:tor ?" Three or four
were withdrawn, and then he commented
ill a manner that shin wed him quite at home
rmiirultural matters; that was farther
eontcraital by remarks on the Cereals, of
which he toliscrved, by the way, that Maize
was his favorite, for "he could live on corn
bread."
noW ascended to the upper saloon.
and'inspected with much interest the col
lection of natural and other rarities brought
lit one tv the Exploring Expedition; the
statuary, the paintings, Indian arms, and

AGRICULTURAL EXPER-
I NI NNTd.
Some recent experiments in wheat and
flour go to prove that both contain water
and that the iptainity is more in cold coun
tries than in W;11111. In Alsace from six
teen to twenty per cent; in England from
fourteen to seventeen per cent ; in the U
nited Slates from twelve to fourteen per
cent;.in Africa and Sicily from nine to
eleven per vent. This accounts for the
foci that the same weight 4;4011111cm flour
yields more bread than the Northern.—
English wheat yields thirteen pounds more
to die quarter than the 'Scotch. Alabama
!lour, it is said, yields twenty per cent,
4riore than Cincinnati ; and, in general, A
inericin flour, according to the authority of
one of the most extensive London bakers,
absorbs eight or ten per cent more of its
own weight of water in being made into
bread than the English. The warmer the
'country the more is the water dried out of I
the' grain before it ripens, and hence, when
made into bread, it absorbs more water a
, gain, awl is therefore more valuable. Pro
fessor !leek has written a report for the,
Patent Office, in which he shows that the
presence of water unfits these articles fur
'preservation. The books of a single in
slimmer in New York city showed that in
1847 lie inspected 218,670 barrels of sour
and musty fluor. In his opinion the loss
on these was p 250,000. Every year the
total loss in the United States from mois
10re in wheat and flour is estimated at from
$3,900,000 to $5,000,000. To remedy
this great evil the grain should be well ri
pened before harvesting, awl well dried be
lore being stored in a good dry granary.
Kiln drying is preferable. The mode of
ascertaining the amount of water is this :
Take a small sample, say live ounces, and
weigh it carefully. Put it in a dry vessel,
' Which should be heated by boiling water.
After six or seven hours, weight it careful
ly, until it loses no more weight. Its loss
of weight shows the original amount of wa
ter.
TUX /SOUTH CAiltilLlNA AND
Dlsosttosists.-11 is not a little re
markable that while , the disunionists of
Noidli'Caruhni—the clique who worship
John C. Calhoun—were sending forth
their denunciations of the Union from the
.little lowa of Orangeburgh, on the 4th inst.,
another meeting was being held in the town
of Abington, Mass., at which rentimenta
'were Uttered exactly similar as regards the
Union of the States, thus proving the truth
of Ow adage, that extremes meet. Both
meetings advocated a dissolution of the U
nion, though for very opposite reasons.—
Those at Orangeburgh, because the Union
was detrimental to the existence and
oprad of human slavery, and those at Ab
ington, because the Union was the safe
guard and protector of slavery. in one
other point they differed. At Orange
fulk,h they. relcsed to mutat. &duration

Tilt LATE. Mt. 9. MADISON:.—The death
of Mrs. Dolly Payne Madison, which took
piece An Thumb") , night in Washington,,os
an event that seems to require something
mitre than a mere passing notice by the
press. All intimate association Willi rib
tic characters and public affairs fur half a
century, has I made her almost .as well
known a character to the American peo
ple as any of our statesmen of the same
period. At the same time, her noble qual
ities of mind and heart have made her not
less conspicuous in the relations of domes
tic and social life.
Mrs. Mai'islet's maiden name was Dolly
Payne. She was of Virginia parentage,
though her birth took place in North Car
olina, during a visit of her parents to that
State. A short time after her birth, her
parents joined the Society of Friends, and
mono m Ming their slaves, removed to Penn
sylvania, and their daughter Dolly rcceiv
her education in this city. At nn early
age she was married to Mr. Todd, n young
lawyer of Philadelphia, who died a short
time afterwards, leaving her with an in
fant. The young and beautiful widow
was not long without suitors, and among
the number, James Madison, then a mem
ber of Congress front Virginia. was the fil=
vored one; to whom she was wedded in
179.1. Throughout his long and eventful
career, she sustained the character of a
devoted wife, and was of no small service
to her distinguished husband in many of
the scenes of his life.
During his administration as President
of the United States, she presided over the
White House with a dignity and grace sel
dom equalled, and commanded the admi
ration of Americans as well as foreigners.
Upon the approach of the British army to
Washington in 1814, rare heroic qualities
were developed in her character. To the
last moment that her friends would permit,
she remained in the White House, securing
cabinet papers, plate and other valuables,
and absolutely refusing to leave until the
portrait of the Father of his country, by
Stuart, was taken down and secured from
the impending vandalism of the invaders.
11cr flight from the W !die !louse, and her
escape in disguise, form an interesting and
romatitie incident of the history of that pe
riod. It was a trying time fur the wife of
an American President, and there aro few
women who Would under the circumstan
ces have displayed an equal strengds of
mind, an equal degree of patriotism, and
equal amount of conjugal devotion.,
After Mr. Madison's retirement she m
mained with him at his seat at Montpelier,
Va.. smoothing the downward path of an
aged motner•in•law, and performing, in an
equally exemplary manner, her duties to
her husband, until his death, in 1836.•+-t
During the greater part of the subsequent
peritarshe has resided at Washington, the
centre of a refined and cultivated circle;
courted or caressed by Americans, and
honored by the attentions of people of all
ranks and all nations. Hue devotion, to
her husband's memory lasted till her death,
, and through her efforts, at the last session
of Congress an appriatiun was made for'
the pnblieation of his papers.
Mrs. Madison was very aged—el:maid
erably over eighty, we believe. To the
last, however, she retained a degree of
health and activity unusual in one of her
years, and her mental faculties', were lid
gularly unimpaired. Her queenly eat ,
riage, her affable demeanor sod her many
amiable qualities have endeared her to
Washington and to all its visitors, and her
loss will be deeply felt by all iti that Me
tropolis.
President Madison, as is . well knows,
had no children. Mr. Todd, Mrs, hisith
sou's son by her first marriage,, is, we be
lieve, still living, and residing to Virginia.

AWFVL FATALITY IN LOOLOIANA.--A r e
have been favored by a friend with the fol
lowing extract of a letter received in
Bal
timore from Louisiana, which shows Sa 111.
binning destruction of the slaves ht that
State :
Peluso or Ascvoilort, June 11.11849.
"The cholera is sweeping of the black
population in great numbers. For instance
Mr. Duffel has lost 7 negroes, M. he Blanc
4, Trist 20, Kenner 34, Doile 40, Minor,
opposite this place, has lost 00 within a
week. These are within sight of our
house. Down the Lafourche, Col. Bibb
has lost 64, Bishop Polk (Episcopalian)
76, and many others in proportion. The
victims have no premonitory symptoms.
They are taken with a weakness in the
legs, and in two hours they are dead!—
They have neither diarrhea nor vomiting.
It is awful to see how they drop down in
the field ; at oue moment perfectly well and
hearty, and by the time they are carried to
the house they are no more.
ANOTHER NARROW ESCAPE FROM Be
!WINO ALFVE.—Some four or five appalling
cases of this sort have occurred at St. Lou
is, lately, in the midst of the fearful rate of
mortality from the scourge. The Cincin
nati Commercial of the 13th, gives the la
test as follows :
• We learn from Col. Williamson, of
Lockland, that a matt was seized with
cholera in that town on Wednesday, and
died in a le w hours—or rather lie was pro
nounced dead, and the paraphernalia of
mourning was assumed. The body was
laid out and placed in the coffin ; but a few
hours previous to the time appointed for
the funeral, the DEAD man rose from his
rosin, to the great terror of those around,
and walked out of it in his shroud ! lie
divested himself of the garments of the
grave, and is now apparently a well man.
It is needless to add that lie sent the coffin
back, having no further use for it. This
is true, and it is another warning against
too much haste in burials."
CHOLERA IN THE OHIO PENITENTIARY.
—The cholera rages dreadfully in the O
hio penitentiary, eighty convicts having
died from that disease since the 4th inst.
There are now about two hundred cholera
patients in the hospital of that institution,
among whom there is an average of one
death per hour.
Dr. Yard, one of the most respected
physicians, who had volunteered his ser
vices in the penitentiary, died of the epi
detnie on the 11 th inst. Dr. Lathrop, the
resident physician, has also been attacked
by the cholera, and is not expected to live.
A public meeting way called on the eve
ning of the 12th to devise some means to
mitigate the sufferings of the convicts.—
The city is otherwise healthy.
A MAN WHO ,&.via SAW A WOMAN.—
Robert Curtzan, in his "visits to the Mon

who never saw a woman in his life,•and
had on adequate idea of what sort of crea

was angry with his wife, as was often the
case, either heeling. she talked too Much
or contradicted InOs, or for some other
reason, in short, he was out of litundr with
her, and resolved mot to speak a'Aitiglc
word to her for a long, long time: Ile
kept his resolution for a few days very
strictly. One evening he is lying in bed
and wishes to sleep ; he draws his night

The wife then takes a candle, and carries
it into every hole and corner: she removes
stools. and chairs, and tablcs# sod looks
carefully behind them. The husband nits
up in bed, and gazes ouquiriagly at ,her

SINGULAR Yuman riusnx.—A corms
pendent of the' National Intelligencer,
speaking of tbe Narrative of the Dead Elea
expedition. and in connection, Oldie death
of Lieut. Dale. relates a singular, pressed
ment of Mrs. Dale, and gives the. language
elle tatted at'the time. The correspondent
says :—Ono of the gentlemen told us that
she had said to him on tbe 26th July, "I
wish you to note thia day ; my spirits are
sn oppressed, my feelings are so unac
countably strange, that I am sure some
greatealamity awaits me-note it, that this
is the 24th of July." It was the day her
husband died.

widow of ex•Preaident Illarristiti is lying

very low with the cholera.
Tug Fan DTINCL—We learn from n
gentleman who has recently returned from
a tats to the Eastern shore of Maryland,
that both sides of Chester are lined' with
dead fish, from the smallest to the largest
size. The same phenomenon was obser
ved during the existence of the tiholera in
1832. and the =WPM which.then existed
have no doubt produced a like effect now.
INVLOSICJI OW THIS hutotmaxion.--In
reference to cholera, as well as other di
seases, there is great truth in the old adage.
"Conceit can kill. Conceit can cure." as
the following facts will show. A curious
experiment, says the London Afedteal
Tunes, was recendy tried in Russia with
some murderers. They were pieced, with.
out knowing it, in four beds whore four
persons had died of the cholera. They
did not take the disease. They were then
told that they were to sleep in beds whore
some persons had died of malignant chol
era ; but the beds were, in feet,,new, ; und
ve
had not been used at all. Nevertheless
three of them died of the disease within
four hours.
On the 22d tilt. the French troops sue
needed in obtaining a position within the
outer walls of Rome. The Romans mm
tinued to conduct themselves with the Ut
most heroism. They contained every
inch of ground. Whatever the result, the
triumvirs have won for thentselven imper
ishable fame.
BRANDY MEDICINALLY.,—An old physi
cian of Cincinnati, speaking of brandy u
a preventive for cholera, says that all who
adopt it and do not die of cholera this par,
will probably die of mania a potu next
year.
The Free Sellers and Hunkers of
Vermont refuse to coalesce. ♦ large body
of the latter dissent from the "bargain and
sale," effected by their leaders, and are or
ganizing on their own hook. They have
already brought forward John S. Robin
son for Governor.
CHOLERA AMONG Hoo, &c.—The Cin
cinnati papers state that hogs, and even
horses, in the streets, have been smitten
with the cholera, and died. The Louis
ville Courier, of 13th inst.,learns that Mr.
Crutchfield, living about 50 miles below
Cincinnati, lost about 58 of his hogs in a
single night, the hogs apparently suffering
great pain, and in continued cramps and
spasms.
LOUR AS A DISINFECTANT.—Tha Sanata
ry Committee of Tcmperaneoville, near
Pittsburg, state that there had been eight
deaths by cholera in that village up to the
24th June, since which time no new cases
have occurred. The committee attribute
the disappearance of the disease entirely
to the free use of lime in the streets and
alleys.
gTThe Lancaster ExanAnor says that a recent
case of suicide in that county affords 'striking in
stance of " the ruling passion strong in death."—
The deceased was of very economical habits, and
haying decided to remove hiriself from this world
by means of gunpowder, to save the expense of

Hughes, Mr. Greatly transferred ills circular to the
Tribune, accompanying it with a warm and spir
ited defence of the Roman Republic, in which he
endeavored to show that the proposed aid to the
Pope'kbull *mount to nothing more or lea, un
cle tbecifenmstancos, than • contribution from the
Catholic Republicans of America to aid the despots
et Europe to crush* the Catholic Biiptililicaue
of Rome—and es such shook' and would be in
dignantly refused by every reflecting, intelligent
member of the Church. While every good Cath.
odic would think it right to contribute to the per
sonal support of their Holy Father, to relieve or
g uard a g ainst personal want, it is asking rather
much of Republican petri °lima and Republican
oirreenty to contribute the means of crushing •
gallant people nobly struggling fee the attainment
of Republican Freedom. That such must be the
end of the proposed aid, however designed, -Me-
Grecly thinks cannot be Anon° moment doubted,
and introduces • abatement from en intelligent
Italian resident of New York, who signs himself
G. F. Secebi di Casa'', to prove that there can be
no possible danger of Pius suffering any personal
want—
The Popo (says di Casali) is in Gaeta,
surrounded by the royal rowdy of the
bloody tyrant of Naples, and, front what I
have lately heard, is living in sumptuous
style. The King of Naples has ollitred to
the Pipe 800,000; the emperor of itussia
has sent to him 50,000 crowns ; Queen Is
abella of Spain has presented PiuslX. her
sweetest bonbons, and plenty of Spanish
gold; the Austrian Generals, in every city
they captured, imposed on the population
heavy taxes in favor of Pius IX. saying
nothing of the thousands of beings they
have butchered—in one word, the Pope
has received, from the first day he desert.
ed Rome to the present time, large sup
plies of money from various quarters.—
This money is not needed for the use of
the Church nor His Holiness. The Ito-
man People, when they proclaimed him
fallen from his tempera! throne, offered to
maintain his spiritual power with his
princely incomes as in former times.—
This the Pope has declined, and his con
duct fn making an appeal to foreign nations
to reinstate him in his temporal sway,
even through -seas of human blood, oven
though Rome should foil into ruins, is
enough to warrant a belief that the fund.s
collected in the Catholic Churches in the
United Stater'', will in effect be used to
overthrow the Roman Republic.
Mr. Greely's defence called out a lengthy reply
from Bishop Hughes in which it •is argued that
the collections taken pp in the Catholic Churches
were designed simply for the private use of the
Pope, and that it is the duty of all true Catholics
to we that the !IWO of the Churchshould not be
reduced to a state of dependence by a want of the
necessary means of conducting the operations of
the Papal 80e. The Bishop, however, it strikes
us, fails altogether in meeting the true point at is
sue, and which Mr. Greyly warmly presses in full
Conisslimaness of the vantage ground it gives him
In the controversy, viz:—that aid thus extended
the Pope pending his controversy with the Italian
Republicans, however good the traceries , of the
Amon" may be, will be construed by the despots of
Europe into a,auvlemnation of the Revohniun in
Italy, and ho converted into a means of actual,

We apprehend that there is some truth at
the bottom of this contrast—that the mass
of the Italians are far less fitted for secu
ring, defending and enjoying the blessings
of Liberty than our forefathers were.—
Whether it is politic in a Catholic Bishop
to draw the contrast so broadly, in view of
the precedent history and doinifiarit (kith
of the two countries, is a question to be
pondered: and, at all events, if ten con
tures of ecclesiastiaal sovereignty have
left the Romans so 'wretchedly qualified

they grow tired of tench unprofitable school

more manifest that the only fit preparation
for enacting worthily the part of Freemen

"Romans ! then the country is in
the enemy's grasp, every citizen ought to
arm himself for defence, and to offer him
self as a soldier. There is neither condi
tion or rank which can dispense from the sa
cred duty of repulsing the enemy from our

the feeble minded excuse themselves from
combating, command every one who truly
loves them to do his best towards a hero

ing arms is base and cowardly if he does
not fight.
"The Coins who dishonor France have
hoped to find in us the credulity of Abels ;
they have envied the purity of our waters,
the smiles of our sky, the richness of our

The people replies by arms. France and

duo,to persons eutpliqed on the public

its political friends in the Canal Itnord, as
follows ;
"In the first place we hare no hesitation
in attributing the existence 01%10i a huge
debt, to the careless and extravagant tami
nor in which the public works hare, fur
some time back, been managed ? and in

regard to them, the treasury would now be
in a better cendition at.letat two' hund
red thousand dollars. This is, in teeth, a
low estimate." , .
Here is an important admission, which
the tax-plyera and voters of the Common
wealth would do well to consider:
When Mr. Pall, the present State Trea
surer, came into office, on ~ t he 11th of A
pril last, he found that a temporary loan
of $260,000 had been contracted by his
predecessor, to meet the February interest
tiff the public debt. --- Ontrirr 91119141161 ii
was to cancel this indebtedness: Besides
this lie has paid over to meet the demands
of the Supervisors and officers odang the
line, from the 11th of April to the 9th of
July,—or in something less than three
months, the unprecedented sons of
101 02 !—or more than FOUR TiK)U
SAND DOLLARS A DAY t-•-And yet
the Locofoco officers complain that they
can get no money !--not even enough to
pay the "poor laborers !"
To show how money is wasted and
debts contracted on the public works, we
need only refer to the extravagant prices
paid by the State Agents. doubtless in con
formity with an arrangement between the
parties; by which the olliceri pocket the
surplus. The Harrisburg Telegraph gives
a few cases, as follows :
"For instance, five dollars a hundred is
paid (or iron, which the farmer has fur
four dollars. -
Six dollars and twenty-five cents a hun
dred is paid for spike. on some divisions
of the public works—the Upper Juniata,
for instance--while on other sections foes
and a half, and four and three quarters is
paid fur the same article. _
The latter pricei may be inalterable..
though many farmers buy them let kiss
money.
The same extravagant rates are paid
for beet, lumber and timber. Why do not
the Locofoco Canal Commissioners stop
this wasteful expenditure of the public
money I Now is the time to ron►meneet
The amount it is in their power to save
by such reform will pay off every laboring
man to whom the State is indebted."
We trust that these facts and this state
of things will be looked into by those coun
ties whose citizens bear the burtheu oil
taxation without the least.proepOct of ever
being benefited by the public works.—
Their rights are outraged by the extrava
gant manner in which the Locofocos con
duct them ; and justice demands that this
system of peculation and fraud, carried on
under the cover of official station. be
promptly and effectually arrested.
But how to arrest it is the question.—
The only effectual way is al the ballot
boxes. Let the control of the public works
be taken out of the hands of these Locofo
co plunderers—these rapacious blood-suck
ers, who alwayli manage to enrich them
selves at the expense of the tax-payers.—
At the O'diaber election a new member of
the Board is to be chosen, and it is only by
electing a Whig this fall, and another next
year, and thus placing the Canals and Rail
Roads of the Commonwealth in entirely
new hands, that this system of wboksale
fraud and peculation can be chocked.—
