We hope our citizens will not be behind those of our neighboring towns and cities, in giving of their abundance for the relief of those who have been atript of every thing, except their trust in God :in three short hours. Among the resolutions adopted by the meeting held in Allentown, on Saturday June 3d, 11345, is the following rely judicious one, which will insure an equal and impartial distribution of all moneys collected, to the most destitute: Resolved, That the distribution of the moneys which may be collected for the relief of the suffer. ers, be referred to a committee of Finance, consist. ing of fifteen—no one of whom ;shall reside or own 'property in the burnt district, and who are hereby directed to appropriate the same in such manner as to give the largest portion of the funds to those who arc left most destitute.

PAIR WARNING TO Boys.—The Chief Burgess has given notice,that the law relative to the setting off of fire-crackers, within the limits of our borough, will be enforced in every instance of de tection. This, we think, is right; and we hope the officers in charge of the public safety, will en force the law. If boys, large or small, wish to show their patriotism by the firing off of fire-crack :ro, pistols, &c., &c., let them do it in the woods or open fields, where there will be no danger of burn. ing down half of our town ; as in the case of Al 'entown, which is said to have been occasioned by .he setting off of fire-crackers in or near a stable.

CRISIS IN IRISIf AFFAIRS.—The New York Her. old publishes the following highly important de. spatch, which was received in Liverpool a short time previous to the sailing of the steamship America : Liverpool, Junc 3-11 o'clock, A. M The Irish mail has just arrived, bringing us very important advices from the city of Dublin, stating that the Irish confederation had published an ad dress signed by Mr. Smith O'Brien, declaring that " the period is rapidly approaching when armed resistance to the oppressors of our country will be come a sacred obligation ;" and advising the people to "prepare at once for the protection of their in vaded liberties. The address adds :—" Learn to contemplate, calmly and firmly, the chances of a final struggle, and prepare for that struggle." From all that we can gather from our letters received by the mail this morning, there is evident. ly trouble at hand. It would be dishonest to con ceal the fact that Irelmd abounds with vast num. bers who arc, in the words of Lord John Russell, " weary with suffering, and would view with com placency a change of rule." DE tTII OF MRS. MITCHELL.-ILCUCIS have been received in this country from the Rev. James %Vil. sson, Presbyterian Minister at Lecumplire, county of Derry, Ireland, dated May Nth, that the wife of John Mitchell, the Irish patriot, died but a few days after her unfortunate husband was transported. The shock was so severe upon her, that. it brought on premature confinement, which resulted in her death. The occurrence has caused a very great degree of sympathy, and, it was thought, might end in a popular outbreak. Da. PRIESTLV'S PREDICTION OF CON 11111.RIONS IV Euaors.—On the first of November, 1791, Dr. Priestly dedicated " To the People of England" an •Appeal on the subject of the Riots in Birmingham,' in which is found the following remarkable passage, and I offer it to The Neto York Tribune for pnbli. cation. 11. B• ••The enormous expenses of all modern Europe. on Governments have opened the eyes of men to the nature and uses of Government in general; and, in consequence of this, the whole of tho Gothic Feu. dal System, embracing matters both of a civil and ecclesiastical nature, is beginning to shake to its foundations.—This will necessarily produce a con. vulsion that will be felt in every State in Europe. All nations must ultimately be benefitted by it, though they may suffer by the temporary shock. But, be assured that those countries will suffer the least in which great revolutions will be prevented by temperate and Beasonabls reforms." Sunbury, Pa.

Butler officially notified the authorities that the consummation of the sentence was indefinitely postponed, and the gallows was taken down, much to the disappointment of the numerous and motely crowd who had assembled to see four fellow beings :nett with a painful and ignominons death." Tttc Ivor .—The Choctaws and Cherokees may yet form an Independent State of our Union. According to Rev. Mr. Treat's report of his late visit among them—at a monthly missionery meet. ing, in Boston, on Sunday evening—they bid fair to become quite as worthy of the fellowship as some who now enjoy it. The former are now expending $30,000 annually from their national funds on boarding schools, and their churches number 800 members. Nor arc the latter much behind in the progress of civilization. They have a well admin. istcred government, orderly churches, two High Schools, and other means of social and moral im provement. NATIONAL.

Williford, Georgia, From the Nooklk Herald DEAD SEA EXPEDITION. The expedition under Lieut. W. F.LvNen, of the United States navy, authorized by Government to explore the Dead Sea, had reached its destination on the 23d of April, and was afloat on the sea, with boats launched, the weather mild, and all the party safe and well. CIIATEACTBRIAND, in his admirable narrative of his travels in Greece, Palestine, &c., gives us an in. tcresting though provokingly brief account of this great curiosity. His visit to it was about forty years ago, when a strong guard was necessary to protect him from the Arabs who infested its bor. dors. He says: • Should the Turks ever again give permission, and should it be found practicable to convey a ves sel from Jaffa [or Joppa] to the Dead Sea, some cu rious discoveries would certainly be made in this lake." Lieut. Lynch, we believe, is the first to visit un der the authority of a foreign Government; and, being provided with all things necessary for a thor ough investigation, we really expect that he will realize M. Chatenubriand's promise of curious dis coveries to the utmost degree of possibility, and in scribe his name at the head of the long list of phi losophers and tourists, ancient and modern, who have written upon the subject. We subjoin a few extracts front the narrative of Chateatibriand, by way of whetting the public curiosity for the report which is expected from Lieut. Lynch on his return to the United States. In his approach to the laic:: he says: "We marched two hours with pistols in our bands, as in an enemy's country. We followed the fissures formed between the sand-hills, in a mud baked by the rays of the sun. A crust of snit covered the surface, and resembled a snowy plain, from which a few stunted shrubs rearedtheir heads. We arrived all at once at the lake; 1 say all ut once, because I thought we were yet a considera ble distance from it. No murmur, no cooling breeze announced the approach to i:s margin. The strand, bestrewed with stones, was hot; the waters of the lake were motionless, and absolutely dead along the shore. The first thing I did on alighting was to walk into the lake up to my knees, and to taste the water. I found it impossible to keep it . in my mouth. It far exceeds that of the sea in saltness, and produces upon the lips the effect of a strong solution of alum. 'Before my boots were com pletely dry they were covered with salt; our clothes, our hats, our hands, were in less than three hours impregnated with this mineral." Legions of small fish leaped about the shore at night, which contradicts the opinion generally en. tertained that the Dead Sea produces no- living creature. In 177 S the water was analyzed by Lavoisier and others, who proved that one hundred pounds of it contained forty pounds six ounces of salt; that is, six pounds four ounces or common marine salt, and thirty.eight pounds two ounces of marine salt with un earthy base. Mahe Brun ascertained the the specific gravity to be 1,211, that of fresh water being 1,000. It is (says he) perfectly transpa rent. Reagents demonstrate in it the presence of marine and sulphuric acid ; it does not change col. ors, such as turnsol and violet. It holds in solution the following substances, and in the undermen tioned proportions; Maria of Lime 3.920 Magnesia 10.240 Soda 10.360 Sulphate of lime 051 2-1.380 in 100 o'rhis celebrated lake, (says M.Chateaubriand,) which occupies the site of Sodom and Gomorrah, is called in Scripture the Dead or Salt Sea ; by the Latins and Greeks, Asphalites; Ahnotanalt and Behar Laths by the Arabs ; and Via Degnisi by the Turks. I cannot coincide in opinion with those who suppose the Dead Sea to be the crater of a vol. canc.._ I have seen Vesuvius, &Altera, Monte Nu. ovo, in the Lake of Fusino, the peak of the Azores; the Mamellf opposite to Carthage, the extinguish ed volcanoes of Auvergne, and remarked in all of them the same characters; that is to say mountains excavated in the form of a funnel, lava, and ashes, which exhibited incontestible proofs of the agency of fire. The Dead Sea, on the contrary, is a' lane of great length, curved like a bow, placed between two ranges of mouotains, which hove no mutual coherence in form, no hornog,encousness of soil. They do not meet at the extremeties of the lake, but continue, the one to bound the valley of Jordan and to run north ns far as the lake of Tiberius; the other to strentelt away to the south till lost in the sands of Yemen. Biturnnn, warm spring., and phosphoric stones are found, it is true, in the moon. tains of Arabia ; but I met with none of these in the opposite chain. But, then, the presence of hot springs, sulphur, and asphultos is not sufficient to attest the anterior existence of a volcano. With respect to the engulphed cities, I adhere to the ac. count given in Scripture without summoning phy. sits to my aid. Besides, if we adopt the idea of Professor Michmlis and the learned Riiching, in Ids memoir on the Dead Sea, physics may be admitted in the catastrophe of the guilty cities wilting of. fence to religion. Sodom was built upon a mine of bitumen, as we know from the testimony of Moses and Josepltus, who spoke concerning wells of bitu. men in the valley of Siddim. Lightning kindled the combustible mass and the cities sunk in the subterrancous conflagration. M.Malte Brun inge niously suggests that Sodom and Gomorrah them. selves might have been built of bituminous stones, and thus have been set in flames by the lire of Heaven." "Several travellers, and among others Truilo and d' Arvieux, asserts that they remarked frog. merits of walls and palaces in the Dead Sea. This statement seems to be confirmed by Mundrell and Father Nau. The ancients speak more posi. tively on this subject: Josephus who employs a po. etie expression, says that he perceived on the banks of the lake the shades of the overwhelmed cities. Strabo gives a cireumlbrence of sixty stadia to the ruins of Sodom, which arc mentioned also by Ta. eitu.. I know not whether they still exist, but as the lake rises and falls at certain seasons, it is pos. sible that it may alternately cover and expose the skeletons of the reprobate cities." earth is nearly four thousand miles.

JURY PAenirra--The following address has been issued by the Confederation: " PEOPLE or- /RE/AND—Mark these facts, and learn the value of that liberty which you enjoy un der the British Constitution. ' There is a certain book called the Juror's Book, which contains the names of all the citizens of Dub. lin qualified to serve as common jurors. Out of all the names in this book, the Sheriff is supposed to select, indifferently,' a .uflicient number to act as jurors at each Commission. At present the hook contains, altogether, 4,661 names; of which 3,426 are Catholics, arid 1,035 are Protestants, including Presbyterians. Observe, there arc nearly three Catholics for one Protestant. `• Out of thes.o 4,661 names, the Sheriff has chosen 150 to act as jurors at the present Commis. sion.

We took the That dose according to directions, and almost instantly felt a glow of healthy warmth through the system. This was two o'- clock—at five we took another dose, at nine another, and we soon after detected a perceptible relief in the frequen cy of the spasms and violent pains that had before attend ed them.
