JAMES FSSNIMORE Coo1>isii.-—This gentle-
man, who, it seems, isnot satisfied with the no-
toriety already acquired by him in the defence
of liischaracier as” agentleman and a scholar,”
has, in his crusade against the press, commenced
another suit for anallcged libel. The object of
his ire at this time’ is M r, Tlrurlovv \Vecd, of the
Albany Evening Journal. The offence was
given three years ago, The damages are laid
at $10,000. It is stated that Mr. C. has re-
cently made three or four attempts to obtain
bills of indictment against other gentlemen of
the quill, but’ the Grand Jury deemed it proper
to throw them out. I

soon yield to the relentless hand of fate.

gence had just been received at that place of
the destruction of three more families by a
band of about 50, or 60 Indians, concealed in

sition the Legislature may think proper.”
The average number of convicts for the
last year has been about 25 less than the av-
erage of the last five years, and of course it
corresponding diminution of labor would
take place, while the general expenses have
been about the same.

The whole number of convicts on the first
of April, l839, was 183. Of this number
54 have been tliscliiirged by expiration of

The following paragraph from the Charleston
Mercury. a -warm administration paper, can-
didly admits what we conceive to be the true po-
sition of Virginia.

“ It is by no means difiicult to suppose that
Virginia will cast her vote for Harrison and
Tyler. The odds are fearful against the old
Republican (Loco Foco) doctrines. The can-
didates for President and Vice President are
both Virginians. linked by their connexions for
three centuries with a thousand ties that WI”

thrill through the heart of the old common-.

wealth ."

Court, and five have died-—leaving in im-
prisonment at the present time 169.

Among the prisoners are 7 females and 44
colored persons. The proportion of colored
persons is unnatural, since at the ratio_of
otlr population it should be only 3 per cent.
whereas it is 26.—New Hat,-en Herald.

Williamsbitrg/i.-—By a statement publish- ‘
ed in March last, it appears that the collec-
tors oftaxes and assessments are greatly de-
ficient in their returns, and unless the village
recovers of them or their securities great
loss will accrue. The village do not pay
their debts, and there is no tangible property
on which to levy. In the midstofthis stateof
bankruptcyand general derangement an elec-
tion of village Trustees takes place, and one
of the defaulters with a Board of incompetent
men, are chosen. . Their debates are said to
exhibit ludicrous, but nevertheless’ disgrace-
ful, evidences ofquarrclliug, swearing, threat-
ning each other &c. The example of Mr.
Bynum and others on the floor of Congress,
is expected to find humble imitators in other
public bodies.——Long Island Star.

 

The Captain ofthe Arabian ship, learning
the constitutional prohibition ‘against the re-
ception’ of presents from foreign powers by
the officers-of our government, declined send-
ing to the President the magnificient gifts
from the Sultan of Muscat. He has no
idea of seeing tbein exposed at auction in
Washington. Oi'd'ers have heenreceived at
the Navy Yard to take the Sultanee into
dock, and thoroughly repair and paint her
at the expense of the government; a so to sub-
stitute fourteen carronadcs for the four guns
which now constitute her armament.

1 ~ - PILLS.

I-IESE pills raise from the greatest weak-

‘ ness. distress, and 'sirlTering, to a state of
strength. health, and happiness. The name of
these pills originated from the circumstance of
the medicine being found only in the cemctries
ofPersia. T-his vegetable production being of
a peculiar kind, led to experiments as to its
medical qualities and virtues. In halfa centu-
rv it became an established medicine for the
diseases ol't'hat- country. The extract. of this
singular production was introduced itito some
parts of Europe in the year 1783, arid used by
many celebrated physicians in curingicertalo
diseases, where all other medicines had been
used in vain. Early in the year 1702. the ex-
tract was combined with a certain vegetable

_ imported from Dura Baca, in the East Indies.

and formed into pills. The admirable effect of

' this compound upon the human system. led phy-

sicians and families into its ‘general use. Their

long established character. their’ universal and
healing virtues.-the detergent and cleansing
qualities of their specificial action upon the
glandular part ofthe system, are such as will
sustain iheir.r»eputation and general use in file

MOFFATT’S VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES.
HESE medicines are indebted for their
name to their manifest and sensible action
in purifying the springs and channels of life, and
enduiug them with renewed tone and vigor. In
many hundred certified cases which have been
made public, and in almost every species of
disease to which the human frame is liable, the
happy effects of 1lIa_fl'at‘s Life Pills aria’ Phcriiz:
Bitters have been gratefully acknowledged by
the persons benefittcd, and who were previously
(1 iacquainted with the beautifully philosophical
pinciples upon which they are cotnpounded,aud
upon which they consequently act.
The Life Medicines recommend themselves
in diseases ofevery form acd description. Their
first operation is to loosen from the coats of the
stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
cruiliiies constantly settling around them. and to
remove the hardened fzeces which collect in the
c'0t_)\.'0luli:)n3 ofthe small intestines. Other me-
dicines only partially cleanse these. and leave
such collected masses behind as to produce lia-
biiual costiveness, with all its t.rain of evils. or
sudden diarrhoea, with its imminent dangers.
This fact is well known to all regular armin-
misls, who examine the human bowels after
death: and hence the prejudice oftliese well
informed men against quack medicines——or nic-
dicine prepared and heralded to the public by
ignorant persons. The second effect of the
Life Medicines is tocleanse the kidneys and the
bladder, and by this means, the liver and the
lungs, the healthful action of which enierely de-
pends upon the regulari-ty of the urinary organs.
The blood, which takes its red color from the
agency ofthe liver and the lungs before it passes
into the heart being thus purified by them
and nourished by food coming from a clean
stomach, courses freely through the veins, re-
news every part ofthe svsteiii. and triumphant-
ly mounts the banner of liealih in the blooming
cheek.
