altogether such an unearthly din as might have
penetrated the ears of a wooden god. When the
gongs paused to rest a moment, the prayers would
cease, and be resumed when the music struck up.
A. shelf was drawn out before the "Sash," on which
was placed for his specie/ use, roast beef, pork,
ducks, fowls, eggs, lobsters, &e. &c. The royal
god dines ale Astor, and is by no means satisfied
with plebian fare. Having eaten a sufficient quan
tity, he graciously permits Ilia worshipyers to par
'Enke of the remainder.
If the god leaves any. of the food, the natives
regard it as indication that their sins are all for
given. The result, probably, is generally very sat
isfactory in regard to the forgiving disposition of
"Josh." and so less gratifying to the palates of his
worshippers. • The exercises were continued till
about sunrise. A pail containing a large piece of
pork, Toddened by a peculiar procees of cooking
with Josh powder, is suspended from the boom—
object 'unknown, probably en offering to the god.
The officers allow the natives tnctijoy their religi
ons rites unmolested, though frequently at great
expense, end much to the destruction of stock on
board the vessel when these rites happen at sea.—
The public curiosity continues unabated. Yester
day twenty-eight hundred visitors were on board.—

ELECTRICTY—TELEGRAPII WllCES.—Messrs. Edi
tors: It is with extreme regret and mortification,
that I have seen circulating in the papers, the—arti
de alluded to in your last, in which a paragraph
published in the New Haven Journal with the sig
nsture of "O," is ascribed to me. The idea that
we shall have no heavy thunder showers, or light
ning striking, as long as we have telegraph wires
spread over the earth, could not, I should suppose,
be entertained by any one, who reflects how small a
proportion such structures of art bear, in extent, to
the grand operations of nature. Although a line
of telegraph wires sometimes undoubtedly facili
tates the passage of electricity from the clouds to
the earth (not by attracting the fluid, but by di
minishing the resistance always experienced by
electricity in passing through the air,) yet nothing
appears to me rn.,re improbable, than that structures
so limited in extent as these are, and always must
be, compared with dimensions of the whole atmos
phere, *Amid, to any great degree, prevent tho ac
cumulation of electricity in thunder storms. One
opinion, however, which I publicly expressed
through the medium of this paper, a year or two
since, may be worth repeating, namely, that on ac
count of the tendency of a thunder cloud, which
approaches near to a line of wires, to discharge its
electricity through that channel, care ought to be
taken, when the poles give warning of the approach
of a thunder cloud to some part of the line, to
complete the conducting communeation with the I
earth, and thns to prevent the charge from explod
ing through the person of the operator. Without
this precaution, I have for some time believed, that
the consequences would sooner or later be fatahis

A RACE WITH AN lairirsx.—On Saturday last a
small party, on their return from a pie nic excur
sion to the Indian village, happened to meet, about
a mile this side the council house, the "last," Indi
an, John Stesprock—(he who came near winning
the great ten mile race at Hoboken.) As some of
the party were on their first visit to an Indian
settlement and were desirous of seeing an Indian
foot-race, John was bantered for a run, and, by the
way of inducement was told that if he would reach
the council house (distant one mile and a trifle
over) before we could drive there with our two
horse team and wagon, containing four persons, he
should have a small purse which was made up on
the spot. John in a guttural " neliwy" consented,
and divesting himself of boots and hat, and tying
a handkerchief tightly around his wa.istan,d another
around his head, was ready for a start. At the
word "go!" and with a crack of the whip, away
we went—team and Indian—the latter "loping'.
off steadily, after the Indian style, and we crowd
ing with our team—a fast one—as swiftly as we
dared.
The road was undulating, winding, and in some
places rough. We thought it would be no 'chore'
at all to • distance' him, but very soon discovered
our mistake, and commenced paying out.' It was
'eat use.' Mr. Indian now and then glanced back,
and whenever we whipped up, he whipped up too,,
Sclera! times he crossed and re-crossed the road in
order to get the best track—sometimes taking the
foot path beside the road and occasionally bounding
over a log or bush with a stride that was wonder
fuL At one time we came upon a smooth, 'straight
stretch' of thirty or forty rods, and by a little extra
effort, shot ahead; but it wouldn't do—we were
sold'— for at. the next hill John respecti fully raised
his coatflaps and bid us good bye. Ile won the
race by about six rods and ran it in four minutes
and forty seconds ! It did not appear to fatigne
him in the least.
On Thursday of this week, the 29th instant,
John proposes to be in [his village, and will run
five miles against time, for a purse then to be made
up. He is to run a ten mile race at ButThlo some
time during the autumn. —. Batavia Times.

MIRACLE OF MIRACLES!:
oN the 4th of August, in the year 1843, a
singular scene occurred in the Royal Sci
entific Institute of France. The aged, white
headed President, his head bare, his arm out
stretched, his face radiant with smiles, (for
science was triumphant,) and his voice with
gratulatory tone, delivered the following re
port :
" We are astounded at this singular prepa
ration. Where indeed will science stop!—
Here we have a preparation made in the form
of a beautiful piece of soap, which we know
by actual practice. to cure every cutaneous
eruption, every disfigurement of and even dis
colored skin ! Where will its magic and sin
gular power cease? The Negro, the Creole,
the Yellow Race of the East, and the Red Man
of the Far West, are alike under the influence
of its extraordinary powers of clearing yellow
or discolored skin, and making it white and
beautiful and of changing the color of dark, or
black, or brown skin." (Here several persons
were brought forward by the President, who
had used it, in proor of his assertion.)
There are probably few persons of intelli
gence, who, after reading the above, will doubt
the qualities of
Jones' Italian Chemical Soap
in curing Pimples, Blotches, Salt Rheum,
Scurvy, Erysipelas, Sore Heads, Old Sores,
Beard and Barber's itch, Chapped and Tender
Flesh. Freckles, Tan, Sunburn and changing
dark Sunburn or Yellow Skin to a pure clear
white, as smooth and soft as an Infants, and in

His disease was SCROFULA, and terrible ma

His Palate, the entire roof of his Mouth, Nose,

give no description of his case.
Mr. B. informs us Mat in January last the whole

taking Dr. CULLEN'S laDiAN VEG'ETAELE PANACEA,
which checked the disease in a few days, and Irom
that lime the cure has progressed without inter•

the proprietor, by a young lady who was cured
of consumption:
Ho! ye who pant with failing breath,
And pine away and die,
Hance shall put away your death,
And light anew your eye.
How sweet it melts upon the tongue,
How grateful to the breast!
A glorious theme fer poet's song,
Soothing his cough to rest.
Hance! favored of the gods art thou .!
A blessing to thy race,
Let laurels flourish on thy brow,
And wealth those laurels grace.
When heroes are foreotten—kings
Defunct—or ceased to reign—
Glory for thee shall flay her wings—
Thou conquerer of pain.
