their respective districts.
Lani!-zs’ COMPANION.-—The February num-
ber ofthis highly interesting ntagazine was re-
ceived with its usual. punctuality, last week.
The same degree of merit which has hitherto
‘distinguished it, marks the present nuniber—ori-
ginality. chaste and refined sentiment happily
conceived an beatifully expressed. Gt embellished
inlgood taste—the 12 numbers forming at the
end ofthe year two volumes of royal octave-
appropriate decorations for the centre table.

A barn belonging to Mr. Edwin Lyon. of
Rcdding Ridge, was destroyed by fire, on Tues-
day night of the 23d. ult. The fire was un-
doiibtedly the work ofan incendiary. The loss
is estimated at $500.
A shop owned by O. as \V. Sherman. in
the north part of Bridgeport was destroyed by
fire, on Sunday evening ofthe 31st oh. '1 here
can be no doubt as to the origin of this fire. as
the shop had not beeti occupied for months.
A hay stack, the property of Caleb Beuedit:t_
of New Canaan, was set on fire by a colored
man by the name of Lot Mitchell, on Sunday
morning the 31st ult. Malice against Mr. B.
induced the act. The perpetrator has been at-
rested, examied. and safely lodged in jail at
Fairfield.
RUM SELIIING.
The city of Bridgeport. has resolved. thatdu-
ring the coming year; all persons who choose,
may sell ardent spirits under the regulations of
the statute.

by paying 5$ into the treasury, and 25 cents for
a license. 1
In Danbury the vote was nearly 2 to 1 against
permitting the sale.

M’Lr:on,- BAILING, AND TU'.uux.'r.—On the
27th inst. the hail of $5,000 dollars which had
been required for the release of M’Leod was for-
nished. and an order accordingly given to the
counsel for the prisoner's immediate discharge
from custody. No sooner had this become known
than the citizens of Lockport to the number
of250 or 300 assembled. dc forcibly resisted the
execution ofthe order. and up to" the latest date
received. M'Leod had not regained his liberty.
The avowed object of this high handed proceed-
ing. was to give the owner of the Caroline an
opportunity to prosecute for private damages,
and thus procure the detention of M'Leod.
A letter: from the ‘scene of disorder, dated 12

Judge Bowen admitted him to bail this af-
ternoon. and Capt. Wm. Buel had become
bail. ‘, «, , _ .
The Jndge gave the orderto his (M'Leods)
attorney about 7' o’clock this evening, and
in 40 minutes 200 men were in and about
the Court House and Jail.

Vessel Sun/c wit/1. probably all on board.
—-Captain ’Hrrna. ofthe brig Anne. arrived
at Baltimore on Tuesday, states that while
at anchor of the lower end of Kent Island,
on Monday, with the wind :1 head. he obser-
ved a schooner of about 50 or 60 tons, lay-
ing near, also at anchor, but with her main-
sail up. About three o’cloclc. a squ:ill came
up from the E. N. E. and blew quite fresh
for a short time. Vllhen it. cleared away, he
sziw that the schooner was sunk, and some-
thing floating on the water. He sent his
boat and found that the Inainmast was l)l'(.l(-
en in two. and the upper part with the sail
attached floating on the surface. The main
gaff; was taken off, and brought up. Capt.
H. supposed that all on board were below
at the time and were drowned. The main-
sail he observed was new.
The Hon. Elisha IV/iitlleseg/.—VVe see
it stated here and elsewhere, that this gentle-
tnan has consented to take a prominent place
in the Post Office Department-—-that of lst
assistant Postmaster General having been
named. No piece of news could be more
agreeable to the public than that Mr. VV. is
ting industry and scrupulous honesty emin;
ently fit him for a place like this. But ‘few
men have such a plain, unostentritions, labor-
riotis habits, and none have a more upright
mind. His presence will be a. treasure for
the Postmaster General.——N. Y. Express.

‘tea to the 9th ofJanu-dry. The papers con-
tain very little news. Paris was unusually
tranquil. The uetv Ministry were. dilly
gaining strength.

Resolved, That it is the duty of each member A
to come into the department. His ‘unremitv
Tlic news from China was doubted by

It has been used by many farmers on Long
Island. for three successive seasons; and dur-
ing the past season also, used extensively in
New‘ Jersey and sortie parts of New England
-——and in all cases where reports have reached
us. with entire satisfaction. -
A small patnplilet has recently been publish-
ed. containing letters and statements from those
who have used Poudrette prepared by this Coin-
pony--in whicli are many interesting facts in
relation to the manner of applying it. and also
as to.its relative value with other iiianures.
This Company was incorporated by an act
(lflliii. Legislature of the State of New York.
in May. 1839. for 20 years. Simnits in the
Company are one hundred dollars each, which
entitle the holder to one /rumlrcd bus/iels of
Poudrette annually, dtiringtlieierm oftliechar-
ter. une.r}n"rcd. as a clit.-idcml. or return for his
investment; which when received. will be in
lull of all claim oti ilie Company. The divi-
dends are payable fifty bushels each spring antl
fall. annually.
Present price ofPoudrette 35 cents a bushel
—lteuped measure-—aud at this price, the share-
holder will receive back his investrrient. with
ten per cent. interest. eiery four years. The
price will more probably be higher than lower.
as the demand increases.
E? A few shares may yet be had at their
par v..ilue—which will be entitled to a Spring
rlivid_eud-——on application to the subscriber, at
the office ofthe Company. 120 Nassau street;
or on the receipt of one litindred dollars by mail,
a certificate will he made out, and forwarded
according to direction, the same as if the appli-
cant was present. _
Slizireholders furnish their own bags, or bar-
rels, but their divirler.ds are to be delivered on
board of vessel in this city—free of cartage.
Purchasers will be charged crlra for barrels,or
bags, but not for cartage, except when two or
three barrels only are ordered.
Poiidrette is estimated by some as 1 to 14 of
yard, or stable manure; and by otliersl to 16
or 20.-—Some use half a gill, oiliers a gill. and
others it gill and a half to the hill of corn.
Some use 25, others 35 and others 40 bushels
to an acre of wheat. Isliould recommend a gill.
and a ltalf to the hill of corn.—a part to be put
in the hill. at planting, and a part to be put on
at broad cast, and worked in with the cultivator
anti hoe, at the second lioeiug; and also 30 or
35 bushels to acre of wheat—-orie half at sowing
to give it a vigorous start, and the other halfin
the spring. This depends, however, upon the
condition ofthe lacd—some require more and
others not so much.
