Clay’s Itch Ointment.
S the application of this ointment is made to
.1. the pimples only, there is no danger of
taking cold, no washing, no brimstone or other
disugiecable smell ; may be applied with safety to
ihc most delicate female, or infantat the breast.
Should the eruptions prove not to be the itch, it
will most certainly ctire them, as it is a specific

of the bead, pimples on the face, ring worms, tet-
ters, grubsi, morplrew, and any defoedations of the
skin. The unprecedented sale of this ointment
for the last year, demonstrates its siiperiority over
every other ointment for the above usc; upwards
of lQ,000 boxes sell annually. Pi-it-,e 33 as a box,

tone of the viscera. In weakness ofthc stomach,
there is not their equal, and for pain in the breast
they are a specific, as thousands can testify; the
heart burn is instantly removed by them, and for
general debility, they are a sure restorative. The
above hitters have found patrons in numerous
physicians and private families ofthc first respec-
ability ; and inn-keepers have adopted them for
tuvern use ; they inoreover possess in a i'emarka-
blc degree, the property of rendering ardent spir-
its an invigorating cordial, which if taken without
them upon an empty stomacli,‘are sure to prove
fatal in the end, by destroying; the tone of the sys-
tem, producing trembling, want of appettie, des-
troying digostion, and inducing along train of
melanclioly evils. For nervous complaint, they
are superior to any of the boasted panaceas.

’ ‘ EFFECTS OF SLAVERY.
The Governor of Virginia”deplores, with much
apparent feeling the effects of Slavery upon that
state, as will be seen by the following extract from
his speech to the Legislature.
‘ The deplorable error of our ancestors in copy.-
ing a civil institution from savage Africa, has fix-
ed on their posterity a depressing burthen, which
nothing but the extraordinary benefits "conferred,
and the great energy infused by our happy cli-
_m:tte, could have enabled us to support through
sogreat difficulties, and at the same time to main-
tain for so long a period our lofty station in the
Union. The want of moral motives and defect
of intelligence, the too common absence of settled
character, that marks the race degraded by slave-
ry, ifnot by nature, which supplies so large a ma-
jurity of the laborers of om: state, have deprived
us, in a melancholy degree, of the immense ad-
vantages for enlightened agriculture, manufact-
ures and commerce, in vaiiiolfeicd by our fertile
soil, and our long and deep rivers, the abundance
of minerals, and the extract-dinai‘y frequ_en‘cy of
fortunate localities. VVe have been outstripped
in those important pursuits of civilized man. by
states to which nature has been far less bountiful.
The unnecessary quantitygof labor thoughtlessly
wasted among us in unproductive, menial offices,
forms a heavy deduction from the sum of our
productive means, which the contemptible ineffi-
ciency of the laborers themselves could alone in.
duce us to make. The steady exertion of in-
genious skill, the dcxtrous mauageinent of com.
plicated macliinery, can never be relied on from
such agents, and the deficiency of those of a su-
perior character, whosc places are unfortunately
thus pre-occupied, must keep its long dependent
on others for the comforts which refined life r'e-
quires. To these disadvantages, by which the
valueof the general industry is so much dimin-
ished, may he added an enormous amount of
waste annually committed through ignorance, ap-
uthy and want of responsibility, supported not bv
fear, but by reason and self interest, which nh
mechanical habits given by education can ever
sufliciently replace. It is painful to cal:-ulate
what mig/it have been, udder other circumstances,
the amount of the general wealth in Virginia, or
the whole sum of the means of comfortable ex-
istence and happiness possessed by all her inhab-
itants at the expiration of two centuries, with the
energy her free citizens have displayed, and the
advantages nature has bestowed.’
The Governor also says—.‘ Ideem it proper to
inform you, that a number of free persons of col.
or have emigrated, and are daily emigrating to,
and settling in this state. The policy of our
country forbids the increase of this class of per-
sons amongst us, and under existing circumstans
ces, to disturb our domestic tranquility.’
Covemor Ceddes, in his message to the legis-
lattiie of South Carolina, very pointedly, and with
much prudence, adverts ‘to the increasing num-
be!‘ of free people of color,by migration, within
. 1
_ _.ul n I ll\7'lTluuvvAu5 lu\.-_v,, ___A_"nV. _
degree with this subject, are silently submitted,
without comment; they have, as Patrick Henry
said upon another occasion, - an awful squinting.’
From the year 1800 to the year 1810 the white
population of the non-slaveholding states, viz. the '
New-England states, N. York, N. Jersey, Perin-
sylvania and Ohio, increased from 2,442.250 to
3,388,492; being an increase in ten years of
946,232, which is within a fraction of 39 per cent,
The colored population being nearly all free,
in the some states, increased within the same
time, from 89,375 to 100,289, being an increase
of10,/114, which is a fraction over 1 l per cent.
The free white population of the slave-holding
states, viz. Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Ken-
tucky, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Georgia, and the
District ofColumbia,increased during the same pe-
riod from 1,908,362, being an increase of307,214,
which is a small fraction over 19 per cent.
The colored population of the same states, be-
ing mostly slaves, iiicreasecl during the same time
from 904,439 to 1,164,789,which is about 28 per
cent. _
These historical facts are derived from the two
last enumerations, by authority of Congress; It
is presumed that the result of the census of the
present year will not differ much from those of
the two former periods mentioned ; therefore we
may expect to find the population of the last men-
tioned states as follows: white people about
S3,227’0,000 ; colored people, bond and free,
1,500,000. Should the increase of the colored
people continue at this rate, which is about 50
per cent greater than that of the white people of
the shine states, they will out number the vvliites
in less than fifty years ; and during the life time
of the grand children of the present generation,
they will to all probability double the number of
the whites.--.l’ee Dee Gaze-tic.

his Message to the Legislature, states a fact in
relation to the Yellow Fever at New-Orleans, that
merits partictilai' attention. He asserts that those
confined in the prison of that city were, in no in-

An ox was killed in Virginia on the 17th tilt.
in which was found a silk pocket handkerchief
which he had swallowed about a year before.
An English paper states, that a country lad
having lain dowujn aharvest field to sleep, a

aod descended into his stomach; after remaining
there some days, it came out alive the same way
it entered. . *' '
