The raising ofa new Presbyterian Meeting house
in the village of Saugatuclr, iv-'is coiiiriiem‘-ed On
Tuesday last week, and completed oriTliiirsday.—-
Previous to commencing the \vn_rk, :1 very fervent
and appropriate prayer was oflered by the Rev.
Mr. Benedict, of'l\'orwalk.

The inliabitnnts ofthe village in general. and the
Building Committee in particular, beg leave, tliro’
the medium of your paper, to express their licai't-
felt gratitude to the gentleiiien from iibroad, for
their kind. prompt, and cflicient aid in raising the
f'ramc. Never have we nitnessed so excellent a
conipaiiv ofhands, and such order and stillness on
such an bccasion. The frame went up with ease,
and without accident, or any serious iiijiiry in any

one. After this state-inciit, it is almost needless to
say. that no artlonl .spi.rits were furnislied.

Mn. C_tr.iioUN.—'I‘lie spirited correspond-
ent ofthe Journal of C-ommerce,whose letters
from \Vashington have been among the most
intelligent and interesting sources ofinforma-

had from the seat ofgovernrncnt
for many months past, thus closes one ofhis
last letters :

“ A friendship and intercourse of 40 years
standing, without interruption, exists bletwcen
Mr. Calhoun and myself, which the jeers or
no iiiiprincipled Changeling will be able to
destroy. I-lis father was the favorite elder in
my father’s congregation, at least forty years
and Mr. Calhoun is now a coiiimutil-.

ecccntricities in his political on
only have they been, he is ncvc . O
admired for many splendid political services.
M ore : he is one ofilie mostpure. unu averiug
men in private relations, that graces any so-
ciety. \Vliile I make these dcclarations,l say
as I have said before, I am not his partizau,
nor that of General Jackson, nor that of Mr.
Clay. In that respect l_arn aVan Burcn man.
W'hnt l the editors of the Courier and Enqui-
rer will say. you a Van Buren man Oh, gen-
tlemen ! I mean I am a“non committal man.’
Mr. Livingston is convalesceiit,and attends
his office every day. I hope the reformed
Cabinet may heal the sores of the adminis-
tration ; butl fear they come like consulting
pliysiciiins, just in time to close the eyes ul
a dying patient. The political bear-pig of
Mr. Livingston is precisely to my taste , and
he must be to that ofyours also. He is an in-
ternal improvement, and a free trade man.”
In another letter the same writer informs us

ry favorable impression upon all persons con-
nected with his Department. I am sincerely‘
rejoiced that he has a prospect of bringing
that Department into good repute, and no one
will be more grateful than I shall be. for so
good a service. May be, he will prove the
“ roclc" of of the Navy, instead of the “ rank"
of the democracy of New England."

A This writer‘ also states that the rumor of
Gov. Cass having been offered the VVar De-
partment is unfounded. “ The better un-
derstanding now is, that the hope of obtaining
the consent of Judge White to accept, is not
surrendered by the President.”

After an absence of two months, on a visit
to Georgia, Mr. Attorney General Berricn
arrived at \Vashington on Tuesday morning

.last. ’

Gen, Bernard after several months absence
on a visit to France, has arrived at Washing-
‘ton. lIe met a kind reception from his nu-
onerous friends at the Capitol.

- The lRicliinond Enquier says that Philip

.-ncy General of the United States. There
can be no doubt, therefore, that Mr.- Berricn
has resigned, and that his resignation has been
‘accepted.

The report spoken of by the Baltimore Pat-
"riot, of Mr. White’s provisional acceptance of
the \’Var Department, we have it from good

Tho New-York papers mention the convic-
tion ofa young man named Sylvester \'Vooley
upon a charge of an assault upon Prciitiss
Keys with an intent to kill. Wooley and
Keyes were fellow boarders, and the latter
tindinghis companion had a considerable sum
ofmouey in his possession, invited him _to an
excursion upon the water. In returning zit;
dark Wooley pretended to be exhausted and
told his companion he must. row, which he
did ; and as Keyes was sitting with his back
towards him he came upon him and struck
him three heavy blows on the head. The 3d
blow seemed to revive him, and he clenched
his assailant and cried murder, which brought
iiniiicdiate assistance from a boat's crew at
the wharf, who secured the assailant, and de-
livered him to the Police.

The Journal of(.‘omuicrce says that W'ooley
was not long since a lecturer at Philadelphia
in support ot the principles of Fanny \Vriglit.
Our informant says he has frequently seen his
handbills in that city, one of which he remem-
bers was headed ‘ Lecture on IIeterodoxy.’—-
Thus it is that infidel principles lead to infa-
rnous crimes. Abolish the sense of reliigion
in any community, and who would venture his
life and property there a moment?

As the fourth of July is approaching we
hope that clergymen and others friendly to
the American Colonization Society will not
forget the collections in the churches on the
Sabbatli immediately preceding or following
that day. —N. Y. Obs.

The steamboatjl-ludson, Capt. Beecher, on
her passage from New Haven, ran upon a
rock near Tinnecock Point, (about 30 miles

worth, which arrived yesterday morning from
Ilartford. The ll’ICl'Cll(If1tII'l.|3 on board was
placed on the proinenaile deck, and would all
be saved. It was expected that the boat
would be got off without niaterial daiiiagc.

The Albany Journal of Tuesday says,-—
“The persons who were engaged yesterday,iii
raising the wreck of the Gen. Jackson, found
the body ofa passenger who was drowncd.——
'I‘l1is swells the number of the dead to twelve."

Mr. Ratlibone, who was so terribly injured
by the explosion of the boiler of the steam-
boat General Jackson, died at his residence
opposite the scene of the disaster, at 12 o’-
clock on Monday night. He was in the 527th
year of his age.

power each. She ascended the Enlield Falls
without any perceptible diminuation of speed.
She is li'ereat'ier to run daily between Spring-

A Noble Cargo.— The ship Splendid of
642 tons, whose magnitude justifies her name,
commanded by Capt. Britten, cleaved at Mo-,
bile on Qdinst. fior Liverpool, having on board
two thousand and ninety-nine bales of cotton,
amounting in weight to 853,643 lbs. Aver--
aging consequently, over 406 lbs. to the bale.
Her freight money "amounted to about four
thousand one hundred pounds sterling, premi-
um of Exchange included, or about eighteen
thousand two hundred dollars.

Dreadful literary calcuni£y.—-Tlie whole
bundle of Mrs. Royal's southern Tour, inten-
ded for her subscribers in this town, was burnt
in the LaFayette hotel, in the late distressing
fire at Fayetteville. We have heard nothing
like it since the destruction of the Alexandri-

DOING the tiring. —- A meeting of citizens of
Boston was held on Friday last to take meas-

met, and voted to advance two thousand dol-
lars at once. A draft for the amount was
procured, and instantly remitted by the Chair-
man of the Committee to the Presidentof the
Branch Bank at Fayettevillc. ‘

Trznnrizm ExrLosioiv.--A Rio Janeiro
paper ofApril 13th contains an account of
a violent thunder storm which descended
upon port Alegrc on the lltli of March.
The rain fell in torrents, and the lightning
struck in several places. A powder-house
about a league from the city, containing
37,500 pounds of powder, was struck and
blown to atoms. The explosion shook the
whole city, like an earthquake. The hou-
ses on the margin ofthe river felt the shock
most, and every building received more or
loss injury. All the materials ofthe pow-
der house werc thrown to the distance of
more than 200 rods; the foundations were
torn up, and not a tile or beam was left.-—
Tlie woods in the immediate vicinity were
swept down, and the largest trees torn up
by the roots. At a distance of 16 or 20
rods from the magazinc,a military guard
was quartered, and although the ‘building
which they were in was greatly injured,
particularly in the roof, not a single soldier
suffered any material ltarm. Several cat-
tle, which happened to be near, were kil-
led.-—Journal of Commerce. _ ‘

fects arising from the use ofyour invaluable Sap-
onaceous Compound for shaving, and with whom
I entirely concur, having used it two years, during
which time I have not had my razors honed or
ground; a circumstance which has never before

occurred, although using the same razors for 20

years. With much respect I am, dear sir,
. Your most obedient,
Mr M. Prentiss. Roiiitrtr DONALDSDN.

New York Aug. 4, I830.
The excellent Compound for shaving, called by
Mr N. Prentiss " Siiponaceoiis.” I have used al-
most daily, for about 2 yenrs,\vitli cold water and,
[find it superior to any I ever made use of both
for the ease of shaving over a very tender skin,
and the pleasant sensation experienced after the
operation is performed. Fmncis H.u.r..
I agree with Mr Hall, C. Bonrox.
From my experience in the excellent article
called the "' SiiponaceousCompound," manufac-
tured byMrN. Preritisss, I am convinced it needs
not, (with such as have ever used it,) the recom-
mendation ot‘ Faxsrimv.

Dear Sir, Having used your Saponaceous Com- ,

pound these last 8 months for shaving, I there-

fore do recommend it with confidence ttsthe best

article I ever used for that purpose. Yours, &c.
N. Prentiss. Lem: DAVIES.
August 5, I830.

I have used the “ Saponnceous Compound” of
Mr. l’rentiss.and find it more pleasant to the face,
than any of the shaving soapsl have ever em-
ployed, ¢-ithcr foreign or domestic. I have no oc-
casion for warm water, 8:. the operation ofshaving
has lost with me lialtitii inconvenience, since I
availed myself oftliis useful invention. As ii mild
emollient, and soothing application to the skin, I
highly esteem it,and recommend it to my patients
as a medicament in cutaneous diseases.

Respectfully yours, 1). M. Rizasrc.

N. B. The subscriber having sold the above
Compound to some of his customers, after using
it six months they pronounce it the best article
they have ever used. M. M. LAWRENCE.
