We understand (says the Staunton Spec.
• tator,) that Mr. Shaw, the Engineer of Yu.-
_ ginia,who has been engaged for some weeks,
-in an examination of the country, between
this place and fames River, speaks most
encouragingly of its adoption to u Rail Road
improvement. Frqpi what wo have heard,
the cost of a considerable part of the work,
on either side of the mountain, would not be
more than that ofthe Petersburg Rail Road
—say 0 or 87,000 a mile.
AMERICAN INGENUrrY.—From the CM
cinnati Republican, we gather the follow.
ing particulars of a new Quadrant, invented
by a gentleinan there for Mr. Clayton, to as.
certain the velocity of his balloon in his as
cenaion,which took place the 4th of Julylast.
"Dr. Locke has invented and made for
Mr. Clayton a Quadrant, by means of which
he can ascertain his velocity in the high re
..
glens of the air. The instrument plumbs
itsel[by a weight, and has three pair of fix
ed si;Vits. The first pair range. perpendic
ularly; the second to 40 degrees from a per
pendicular; the third to 63 degrees. These
— three ffnes, projected from the balloon, will
strike the earth at plats including two dis.
lances, each ecpj,a.l to its altitude, which is
known by the barometer. An object noticed
ut qvance of the balloon, will first come in
the nge of the line of 63 degrees, and
lastly in that„ of the perpendicular. The
instrument may then be reversed, and the
same object noticed by the watch. The
velocity over a distance equal to four alti
tudes is at once obtained, without any cal
culation. This is more simple and exact
than the reckoning by casting the log at sea.
"Dr. L. has also prepared for him a
Phosphoric Lamp, without fire, by which
this instrument can be road in the night.
Our enterprising ./Eronaut, thus furnished
with the barometer, watch, compass, chart,
quadrant, or motometor, and lamp, will be
enabler!, by his reckoning; to know what
part of the country he may at any time be
traversing, and may be trusted on his track.
less journey with less anxiety than we pre
viously suffered on his account."
Who that is familiar with the slate arm
ciety both of the South and the North, but
will acknowledge the full force of the follow
ing brief paragraph fron► tho pen of Major
NOAH I—Nat. Intel.
"Talk of the slavery of the Southl—
Would that our free negroes were half as
well off—as comfortably clothed and fed—
as well taken care of, and provided for in
sickness and calamity. It is the name co
!every, not the reality. Here we have
slavery, whites and blacks—there is liber
ty under the name of slavery. A field ne-
gro has his cottage, his wife and children,
his easy task, his little patch of corn and
---iietutoes, his garden and fruit, which are his
revenue and property. The house servant
has handsome clothing, his luxurious meals,
his admitted privileges, a kind master, and
indulgent mistress. In the South we see
nothing of the poverty, crime, and abandon.
- meat of the blacks that we have at the North.
Let fanatics rave—let false philosophy have
sway—this is the truth of the picture, and
-men of sense must admit it.r—Even. Star.
We find in the U. S. Telegraph, a most
loving and moving epistle from Miss Silvy
Johnson, (daughter of Col. R. M. Johnson)
to Mr. Stevenson, president of the, late Van
Buren Convention, expressing the thanks of
herself; mother, sister Prissy, uncles Cufy,
Cudjo, &c. for his exertions in procuring
the nomination of Col. Johnson as Vice Pres
ident. The family group had just received
the Globe containing the organization of the
Convention—when the following dialogue
ensues:
Col. .I.—"My dear, I shall be nominated
in preference to Rives; for I see that Ste
venson is elected President of the Baltimore
Convention."
zo . "Bless de Lord ?".ejaculated my mother,
11 2 111 1 always said 1 loved Mr. Stevenson better
than any body in de world except my hus
band."
Sister Prissy and I could say nothing:but
we poured forth tears of gratitude to the
Convention and its venerable head.
Uncle Cuffy, could not contain himself—
He sprang up and began involuntarily to
pat 'Juba' as if his heart was in bis hands,
and his soul was in his feet.
But Uncle Cudjo was not so sanguine—
not that he doubted your friendship, my dear
sir, but because the experience of sixty
years has taught him to rejoice at nothing
which is not certain.
• "Stop," said he, "bro'er Dick! Read dat
ting agin; I want my own ear fo' hear urn."
Papa then read over the whole proceed
ings. When he had concluded—
'Well," said Uncle Cudjo, Mae. Stevenson
strait enough then: but how he gwine to
make all dem duckeramen do what he want
um?"
"Oh," said Papa, "Cudjo, be will not in
fluence them. This is not what I expect;
but their choosing him, shows that they go
for tne."
"Ah, dat de way you work um, ha! Well,
, may be he work right; but I tell you now,
you better not laugh before de fun come; for
white man mighty unsartin."
- Should Col. Johnson be elected, he can
not do less than advance Uncle Cully and
Cudjo to auditor's births, and , marry the
.young ladies, Miss Silvy and Miss Prissy, to
8 couple of his friends in Congress.

TO TEMPUBLIC.
Cramps,
THIS medicine has been before the pub
lic for three or four years past and has ac
quired probably a greater degree of popu
larity, than any article ever bethre introduc
ed into general use. It contains no noxious
article, nor mineral or metallic substance
and is carefully compounded so as to always
be of uniform strength and consistency.
It will keep good for years and grows
more pleasant by age. Children are gen
erally very fond of it, and none will refuse to
take it. It is so well adapted to the various
complaints of children, that every family
should always keep it in their houses, as
most families who have used it, now do.—
Sailors and travelling persons should always
carry it with them.
This medicine is put up in round brass
moulded vials of two and four ounces each,
with the words "Da. D. JAYNa's CARMI
NATIVE BALSAM" blown on them, and the
written signature of D. Jayne to the bottom
of each direction—none others are genuine.
This medicine is not recommended as a
"Panacea" to cure all diseases to "which
flesh is heir to" but as a remedy in Diar.
rhcen. The beginning and latter stages of
Dysentery, Cholera Markus, the Spasmodic
or Malignant CHOLERA, Cramps, Cholics,
Sick and nervous Headache. For the Sum
mer Complaint or CHOLERA of children it is
Unrivalled by any other combination of medi
cine ever used. It has repeatedly effected
cures, when every other means had failed
aided by the attendance and skill of the a
blest physicians, that could be procured.—
Obstinate Diarrhceas of s ears standing, have
been reifloyed by the use of a few bottles of
it; violent Dvsenteries arrested and Cholera
Nlorbus cured. The Spasms attending the
Malignant Cholera have always been sup
pressed in from one to three minutes time,
and that much dreaded and fatal disease re
peatedly cured without the aid of any other
article of medicine. In filet its power over
spasmodic diseases of every kind seem to be
absolute as it has never yet been known to
fail of giving relief in a single instance.—
Griping pains, tormina and tenesmus Chol
ics, Cramps &c. are also soon removed by it.
Hundreds of females and sedentary per.
sons can attest to its superior excellence in
sick and nervous Headaches as two or three
tenspoonfulls generally gives them relief in
the course of half an hour.
Children laboring under the Stino67l
Complaint, have been cured in a short time,
after all known remedies had failed:--those
too who have been so extremely emaciated
that their bones almost protruded through
their skins, and all hope of recovery aban
doned, by ikg who saw them, have by a few
weeks use of this medicine been restored to
perfect health.
CERTI Fl GATES.
Certificate from Dr. William Bacon, Pastor oftho
Baptist Church at Pittsgrove, Salem Co., N. J.
Having been made acquainted• with the ingro-
Aionts composing Dr. Jayne's Carminative Bal
sam, I believe it to be a very happy combination,
and a useful medicine in many complaints which
almost constantly occur in our country, such as
Bowel Affections of children, Cholic, Cramps,
Looseness, Dyspeptic Disorders of the Stomach,
Coughs, and Affections of the Breast, together
with all those diseases attended with Sourness of
the Stomach; and believe that the regular physi
cian wilt often find it a useful remedy in his hands,
and ono that is proper for domestic use, and can
be put into the hands of persons at largo with
safety. WM. BACON, M. D.
Pittsgrove, Salem Co. N. J. May 4th, 1831.
Certificate from Dr. Wm. Steeling
This may certify that I have used Dr. Jayne's
Carminative Balsam very extensively in Bowel
Complaints, and have not the least hesitation in
declaring it superior to any preparation that I
have met with, hr the relief of those diseases.
WILLIAM STEELING, M. D.
Bridgeton, July 19th, 1831.
From Dr. M. L. Knapp, late Physician to the Dal
titnore Dispensary, and Agent for the Mary
land Vaccine Institution.
Baltimore, March 27th, 1833.
Dr. JAYNE—Dear Sir.--You ask mo what proofs
I meet with of the efficacy of your medicine. I
can safely say that I never prescribed a medicine
for Bowel Complaints that has given mo so much
satisfaction, and my patients so speedy and per
fect relief as this. Whenever introduced Into a
family, it becomes a standing remedy for those
ailments, and is called for again and again; which
I think a pretty good proof of its efficacy and use
fulness. In the Summer Complaint of children, it
has frequently appeared to snatch the little vic
tims, as it wore, from the grave. "It saved the
life of my child, and of such and such a child," I
have repeatedly heard said. In dysenteric affec
tions of adults, I have time and again seen it act
like a charm, and give permanent relief in a few
hours, I may say in a few minutes. In fine, it is
a valuable medicine, and no family should be with
out it. Respectfully,.
From Dr. L. Lawrence
Cedarville, Oct. 9th, 1832
Dr. D. JAYNE—Dear Sir.—The curative powers
of your Carminative Balsam appears to be fairly
established in all Bowel Coinplamts, &c.; and
from the experience I have had with the medicine,
I am disposed to think very favorably of it. I
have lately tried it on one of my children, who
was severely handled, and with complete success,
without the use of any other medicine. So fat as
my practice has extended, 1 think it a deaidora•
tum in medicine, especially among children, who
are apt: to be affected this way; and which every
practitioner in medicine has found to be a very
troublesome disease. Respectfully,
LEONARD LAWRENCE, M. D.
From Dr. Charles Hammond.
Dr. JAYNE—Dear Sir.-1 have made use of the
Carminative Balsam prepared by you for Com
plaints of the Bowels, with complete success in
every case and I do not hesitate to recommend it
to tho patronage of .tho public as a medicine,
worthy of their particular notice.
CHARLES HAMMOND.
Leesburg, Va. Oct. sth, 1834.
From the Rev. Charles J. Hopkins, Pastor of the
Baptist Church at Salem N. J.
Dr. JAYNE—Dear Sir.—Understanding you
wore about to publish certificates respecting your
valuable Carminative Balsam. I thought if it would
be of any service to you I would wish to bear a
public testimony in its you,
.115 we have proved
its excellency very frequently is our family, and
M. L. KNAPP, M. D.
a Ise administered it to our friends, who have visi
ted us, and always found it gave them speedy re.
lief. Yours Respectfully,

DR. HULL'S RECENTLY IMPRO
VED 'TRUSS.—The distinguished
surgeons and medical faculty of the cities
generally, and elsewhere, have come to the
conclusion that this Truss, in its present im
proved state, is the only instrument surgi

the only one that patients can rely upon for
the safe retention of the bowels and the final
cure of the disease.
In confirmation of which the following
names of distinguished medical gentlemen
of New York city, with many others, have
expressed a i tledided preference for this in
strument, are respectfully added:

Also, the following extract of a late certi
ficate of Dr. Mott, of New York:
“For the last twelve months, the curative
powers of Dr. Hull's Truss have been tested
under my own observation with the most
gratifying success in cases of great difficul
ty, in which the mutilated imitation Trusses
so common in out market, had only aggra
vated the disease. Dr. Hull is an experien
ced surgeon, who has displayed not a little
surgical skill and mechanical ingenuity in
bringing this unrivalled instrument to its
present state of perfection, rendering it,,l
know, the best 1 ever saw for securing, com
forting and curing the ruptured patient, and
is in my opinion;the only instrument of the
kind that is entitledto patronage of the pra.
fession, and the confidence of the people.
