WASHINGTON, February lO.-The
act which we mentioned some days
ago, to be in contemplation by the
Legislature of Kentucky, Tor the incorpo-
ration Of thirty three independent banks,
has passed both Houses of The Legisla-
ture, with the additions of SIR more, max
ing total of thirty mne. There are al

two Branches of The Bank of the United

The House of Representatives by Mr..
Forsyth, from the Committee TO whom
was referred so much of the Presi-
dents Message as relates to the CONNER
ciai intercourse between the United States
and the British West India islands and
possessions in North America, was wor-
Thy of more particular notice, than from
It's technical title of bill supplemental
~ to the act regulating duties or i'm
ports and tonnage, &c" we gave to il. Ii
is literal transcript, we believe. of the
bill reported by the same committee at
Tie last session; which was ably debated
but was laid over as deserving more ma
tire consideration. Few subjects of the
present session are likely TO excite more
interest than this bill for c0untervalling
the British Colonial Policy; if we except
perhaps the bill for establishing an uni
form system of Bankruptcy, which seems
to be loudly demanded from all the com
mercial sections of the country.
We have satisfaction in stating that
contract has been entered INTO for erect
ing AT the mouth of the Mississippi
Light House, on scale and in style,
commensurate with the magnitude of the
trade of that river. the obstacles, which,
have so long inpeded The accomplishment
of this object, are al length overcome,
and, il is contemplated, it will be fully
effected within two years.

Otsego County agricultural Society.
CATTLE SHOW AND FAIR.

| We learn that the concourse Of people
who attended the Anniversary of this
Society on Tuesday and Wednesday last,
was very great. The animals presented
for premiums aud for sale, were much
more numerous and in superior condition
than those presented at the Fair of last
year. The lot Of young cattle of the
shakespeare breed shewn by MIR. Hudson
of Cherry alley, we are told are partic-
ularly admired, as were the very fine
oxen of Mr.. Eldred, of Laurens. Con-
sidering the unfavourabIe season for cat
tie, those shown we're highly creditable
to the farmers Of the county-the un-
favourable state Of the weather on Mon
day prevented many farmers who lived al
a distance, from driving their flocks Of
cattle and other animals to the fair. Sheep
and Lambs of Bakewell's improved, and
1.-THE South down breed, were shown, which
we're pronounced by good judges to be Of
the first order.
The specimens of linen cloths presented
for premiums and inspection, we are told,
were highly creditable to the ladies of
the county, who manufactured them. A
lpiece of flannel was shown, which for
fneness Of texture, and beauty, is not
Exceeded by scarcely any imported.
Every one who attended the fair seems
| to think that the Ladies of the county, by
the specimens of their industry shewn,
merit the greatest need Of applause. The
Society were honoured with the presence
of his Excellency Governor Clinton, e.
Watson, Esq. General S. Van Rensselaer,,
and other gentlemen of distinction.
On Tuesday Mr.. Watson delivered to
crowded auditory, in the courtroom, ar
address on the subject of Agriculture, il
his usual able and dignified manner. After
which the different committees proceeded
TO the examination of the animals, and ar
ticles of domestic manufacture, offered foi
Ipremiums.
On w ednesday, pursuant to the order
of the day previously published, pro-
cession was formed under the direction Of
the Marshals of the day, Col. Morell and
Mai. Jordan-at the head of which were
the Otsego Volunteers, with the Band d

persons, to be safe and certain remedy
for the following obstinate diseases, some
sof which have SO long baffled the skill o.
medical science.

mours-particularly those hardened tu
mours in women's breasts, which often
times terminate ia liberated cancers. 4th
Fellons, or what some people know by the
name Of catarrhs, Of every description
5th. Rheumatic pains of the joints. 9th
Sprains or bruises Of every description
or in whatever part situate. 9TH. letters
of all kinds in this complaint, the patient
in applying the ointment, must keep the

1t is also one of the best remedies fol
burns and scalds. 1t eases the pain ant
draws the fire out in short time.
For inflamed women's breasts, ano
glandular swellinss, il is superior to any
medicine yet known TO the medical facui
ty. It is much safer than mercurlal ap
plications, Gas it does not contain the
Smallest atom of any preparation OF tina

tient liable to injury from exposure tt
