The Yankee Farmer (llosion) mentions several r.tes of croup having been cured by the application of cold wat-r, and pnUishcs an account ef two In stances in that city in which the experiment was tried with complete success. In the former of ihess Cases the patient was a boy three yeats old, had been subject to to attnrka of the disease from in fancy. The process of the first experiment of the kind with this child is thus related by the father: About fonr o'clock, In the night of dy before yesterday, we were awakened from our sleep by his distress. lie was laboring under a severe attack of the croup, lie breathed with great difficulty, and fcrmcd almost suffocated. His ceugh was extremely hoarse and crnupy, and he could hardly speak in a whisper, ond all the symtoms grew worse rapklly. We rose immediately, and took him from his bed and sttipt him, and began to bathe him all over Willi cold water, bnt most freely about the throat, head and chest ; and his mother took a vessel of cold water and poured it upon the back of his neck; and -llius we continued to bathe him till he became quite chilly. We rubed him off briskly till his skin was dry and somew hat excited. Dut as thero was considerable heat in the throat, we took a napkin, doubled six or eight times, and wet it in cold water, and then covered this wiih a dry cloth, and took him into bed between bis parents. Almost immediately, when we hrgnn to apply the cold water, the symtoms began to subside very fast, and he said, with n grateful tone, that he felt U tter in the morning, when ho arose; nocroupy symtoms remained : and, after being bathed and clothed, he went out, as usual to take his airing before break fast. Yesterday and totlay, he has showed some remaining symtoms of a, cold, and has not been so well as before the attack, but he has played about tho house, and lccn out aa usual, and has been incomparably better than he was after any former attack ; and on neither of these occasions, did the means used afford him any thing I ke asspecely re- lief as the cold water did upon this occasion. E. ALLEN, 40 Elliot et. Boston, April 2, 1838. The foregoing statement being published in a Boston paper, led to the following experiment, and also the cure made in Rochester, the account of which was published last week : Sm : In October, 1833, myself wife and little daughter, then nearly three years old, took a jour ney of about thirty miles, to sjicnd a week in the countiy. From exposure or improptr diet, or both the littlo girl was attacked with the croup, tho third night from home. fSlio aroused hrr mother from sleep by hngirj her around the neck. She could not speak, and it was with extreme di.Tic.uliy that she could breathe. I sprang from the bed, and hastened for a tub, and pail of cold water. I strpped her, and placed her in the tub, and poured the water on her freely. We then took her into bed, and commenced rubbing her briskly with flannel, and gave her cold water to drink. Sho became better rapidly, and within one hour we were quietly asleep again. In the morning, our little girl received her usual bath, and has continued well to the present time. M. WlltLLLK. Boston, March 20, 1810. Burglary ud Murder. A burghry and murder of the most atrocious character were perpetrated at St. Louis on the 17lh ulu A letter from there gives the following account of the catastrophe : "On tho ICth of April there was deposited in the warehouse of Collier & Pctlm", near $GO,000 in specie one young man and a middle aged one slept in the store. In the middle of the night the More was entered by burglars, who murdered two cleiks, Weaver and Jcsso Baker and set fire to tho house, after having, as il is supposed, plundered the vaults, in which, it is said, there were at the time ubout laro hundred thousand dollars. The building was consumed, also tho roof of an ad joining house. The goods in the latter weru much injured by water from the engines. When the firo was discovered, the fust whoeuteied, found the elder clerk murdered near the front door, cut up in the most horrid manner with knife and pistol ; ows ing to which, it is presumed he made violent ret.ist anoc. The other waa murdered in his bed asleep. Ilia remains were not found. Collier & Fettus have saved scarcely any thing, their papers and all their bock, it is feared, are consumed, and the second and part of a thiid warehouse aro entirely destroy ceL "No clue has yet been discovered as to the mur derers. In addition to the above two men, another was killed by the falling tf a wall. One of the in mates was seen near the door of the store at eleven o'clock, and it is presumed the villians rushed into the store past him. They did not succeed in geling any money it is thought ; as soon as they can gel to the fireproof it will bo ascertained for certain. The excitement here is veiy great The populace would hang any one they could ascertain was en gaged iu this horrid affuir. A Canine l'oslbcarrr. The Derby mail is met every morning, at ten o' clock, by dog from an extensive ironworks at Worksop, waiting to be the bearer of the letter bag foi his master, which ia regularly dropped by the guard without waiting. If, however, the canine messenger is not somewhere about at ten the horn is sounded, and the dog is immediately observed in the distance coming along the toaj to meet the mail at the lane end ; but this is very seldom the case, as tho dog usually seats himself upon the wall adjoining the works, listening for the approach of th maiL When the lag is thrown down the faith ful creature, without delay, invariably takes the near est way home through tire hedge and over the fields. Later in the day the empty bag is brought back by the dog ts meet the mail to Derby, but In consequence of the guard not gelling off bis seat, it is necessary to send person with the bag, who can throw it upon the mail while it ia going.

Yet this aw feil oppression and these desolating famines must go on, that England may extort a hundred millions of dollars every year, from her hundred millions of Hindoos ; and poppies mu-t grow ins'ead of wheat, that, at her cannou's mouth, she may force her o pium upon the three hundred millions of the Chi nese, while some one solitary Marahman, peibaps, is translating the Bible of the Christians, to bring theso countless millions to accept the religion of a nation that stands ready at this moment to destroy one half of them by war, that it may destroy the other half by poison."y 15ev.

A melancholy instance of the uncertainty of cir cumstantial evidence occurred at Gibraltar last Feb ruary. A wealthy English merchant of thut place, named James Boxwell, waa convicted upoa that kind of testimony, of the murder of his own daugh ter. On proceeding to the place of execution, he recognized an Englishman named John Keats, who had been active in procuring his conviction, whom be forgave for his hostility, aa he desired to die in peace with all the world. Keats seemed much affected by this, ond just as the sentence of the law was about to be executed, cried out. "It is I that am guilty, and not the convict" A great sensation was produced by this exclamation, when Keats came forward and fully confessed his guilt The tope waa immediately taken from the neck of bis victim, and the cap from his face, but it was all too late. The wrelchej father waa corpse having died of grief and terror! Keats was taken to jail amid the execration of the multitude, who weie with dilliculiy restrained from tearing him lo pieces, 1'lee Great Forgeries. Tho New Orleana Advertiser has the following paragraph which goes to explain the mode in which the lecent impositions on the Banks were practised, A fellow by the name of Matthew Dracr, depos ited four sevcial amounts in the Commeicial Bank of New Oilcans, between a hundred and seven, and a hundred and twenty dollars, each, on or ubout the 20th of March, and received certificates of deposito therefor. With this anchor to windward, the scoundrel obliterated the figures and the words, and inserted "tweniy-one thousand Mexican dollars," in the body of the certificate ; and at the bottom, iu the left hand corner; are the figures $21,000. The alteration ia not a perfect fae simile of the original filling .-p, though it is ueai enough to de ceive. The check was sold lo the Girard Bank, ia Phil adelphia, is now sent here for payment endorsed by W. D. Lewis, the cahier of that institution.

The cnterprizing manogers of this company have landed at their wharves in this borough, two sta lionary engines, each of eighty horse power, to be used in propelling their extensive furnaces at Sha. mokin. Each engine has five boilers thirty inches in dia meter, and thirty feet in length, and two sleim cy lenders twenty-two inches in diameter, Willi a six feet atroke. The blowing cy lenders are of the ver tical description, beautifully moulded, sixty-two in ches in di-meter, with a six feet stroke, and connect ed together I y a lever beam twenty feet in length. The whole machinery necessary for complete ac tion, constructed according to the most approved model of stationary engines in England, orul cor responding with those now used in the most exten. sive iron manufactories in that country, is now re a dy to be transported on the rail road from this place to Shamokin, wliere it will be soon deposited in its appropriate place for action, and contribute its mighty aid in driving the prosperous business of that stirring region. The furnaces will be put in oerallon as soon as these immense agents can be propei ly eeijusleil. The same company his extended a branch from the main rail road, to the edge of the basin in the river at this place, forming a gentle inclined plane, for the purpose of facilitating tho extensive opera linns which are to be carried on, during the present season, between the anthracite region at Shamokin and the iron region at Danville. We under- stand that arrangements have been made to keep up an uninterrupted interchange of those valuable minerals, anthracite and iron ore, during the whole season. Busiutss fourcutiou. The proposition to hold a business convention at llarri.burg, on the 25th of the present month, set ms lo have elicited a very general, indeed, we may say, an universal approbation. We have not heard voice unfavorable to the project, and may reasona bly anticipate a lull representation oi Hie business men of the state on that important occasion. The farmer, the manufacturer, the mechanic, the miner, and all who are in any degree engaged in developing the resources of Pennsylvania, are in tensely interested In ascertaining the mode in w hich their respective operations can be most readily con ducted, and tha products of theii lubor or their art, moat advantageously disposed of. ' An interchange of the views of experienced men upon tha momentous subject of the butinest of ihe country, is emphatically called for by tha peculiar and embarrassing condition of our financial con cerns, as well Uiose of the commonwealth, aa of a majority of the individuals engaged in Ihe general business of tho country. Wa Lava been sufle ring. heavily, from temporary resorts to doubtful expedi- ' ents, in the vain hope that change would sponta neously tome over the spirit of our trade, and allay the revulsions which have been -so sorely felt by the business community, crippling the energies of the aubstantial capitalist, and prostrating or blighting the hopes of the less steady, but equally meritorious adventurer, who founded his operations on an un sullied credit, golden integrity and a never broken promise. To enquire into the rent state of ihe multifarious branches of commerce within the boundaries of the commonwealth, and their relations with each other, the tesources which bountiful Providence has so abundantly and peculiarly implanted in the bosom of our own territory, with the best means of deve lopement, and the consideration of plan for future permanent operation, will be among the most pro minent subjects presented to the proposed assem blage. No community in the state is more deeply inte rested in the establishment of firm basis for trade, in every brunch of industry, than our own. The elements of wealth have been sown in our immedi ate vicinity with broad cast and bountiful band, and the luxuriant growth of business requires only tho fostering and systematic attention of its vota ries to produce the highest reward to individual and combined industry. The county of Northumberland should be fully represented; not only by a strong delegation of en terprising proprietors nJ intelligent operatives, but her statistic should be there. Her vullies, than which none richer are spiead beneath the sun, bea ring upon their aurfacea the rieJj recompense of the husbandman's toil, should I rcpiesented by her re spectable farmers; her bills, neplelo with tho kin dred elements of anthracite coal and iron ore, groan ing to display their ponderous and glittering con tents to the glars of day, snd subject their well test ed worth to the light of science, should he represen ted by the mechanic, the miner, and the merchant; and aZ, for all are interested in its great results, should remember the power of manufacturing and transporting the varied products of the land, which its waters, "broad and deep," furnish to all who de sire their aid. Wo have unrty of interest, let us have unity of action. Meetings for tho appoint ment of delegates and the collection ofinfotmation, we hope, will be immediately held, that our country may not be tardy in contributing her mite to the accompli&hnient of an object of such universal inte rest. The Bank or Revrnue Bill This biil contains twenty-nine sections anJ as it has not yet become a law we do not publish it en tiie, but merely give its prominent features, that our readers may know lww lo appreciate tiie excellent vicwa of tho Governor, contained in bis recent mes- sago to the legislature, returning the bill with his objections. There are two piovisions in the bill to which the Governor hid insuperable objections, but he is willing to forego his own opinion with respect to many other matters, for the sake of the public good. The choice of two evils is presented, and he is obliged to make a selection. The following are the principal features of this Hll, which we take from the Pennsylvania Repor ter: Sec. 1. Authorises the Governor to negotiate i loan for $3,100,000, in certificates of $100. 2. Banks to subscribe to it, and then issue $1, $2 and $5 notes to tho amount of subscription. 3. When a holder has $100, he may present it, and obtain a certificate. 4. Banks to receive an interest of one per cent foi their trouble. 5. Banks complying with the law, to be cleared from paying tax on dividends. C. Bank charters lo be forfeited, if they do not comply with the law. 7. ltauk issues graduated in proportion to capital. 8.

The bill having bees, returned with the objections of the Governor, which related principally to tho 1 7th section, it passed the senate by constitution al majority, but failed in the honse. After its re jection Mr. Titus moved a reconsideration, on which he was seconded by Mr. Weaver. Tho motion was agreed to, and the whote subject postponed till to morrow. Another bill being before tho house, Mr. Luk moved to amend it, by inserting the Revenue Bill which had been vetoed, with a modification of the 17th section, obviating the objectionable features in the bill. Mr. Lusk's amendment was so amend ed, as to repeal all the penalties against the bank (excepting as to the United States Bank) until the 10th May, 1811. The bill as amended passed tho hone, 49 to 41, and was sent to (he senate for concurrence, where it will no doubt pans. Tassaqe cf the Bank and Bcvcnnc Bill. Since the above was in type wi have direct in formation from the seat of government, that the Bank and Revenue Bill, which was under re-consideration on the 4 th inst., had passed the House ol Representatives by the constitutional majority. As it had previously passed the Senate by a similar ma jority, the bill of course has bcco.ne a law without the signature of the Governor. By ihe list of yeas snd nays below it will be seer that thirteen of the democratic memltcrs voted foi the bill.
