Chemical .46inities.-The following
remarks, interesting alike for their nov
city and interest, are from an introduce
tory Chemical Lecture given by DR.. M.
A. Ward at Salem, Mass.
Chemistry is utterly unable TO ex-
plain the phenomena ofvitality. Indeed
the chemical and vital powers are d.
rect antagonists. The human body
maintains successful warfare with, and
efectually resists the incessaDt and COM
bined attack of all the forces of the ele-
ments, often for more than 100 years, land
then when the divine principle does at
length retire and yield up its fortress, it is
in consequence of subsection to a cause
widely different from that of being ex-
PEELED by the triumphant power of its
assailants. But when the soul has once
fed, then indeed the chemical ahinities
come into play, and the rapidity of their
devastation is terrible. In a few DAYS
all traces of organization are destroyed ;
and in few years two or three gaseous
bodies distributed through the atmos-
phere some saline solutions as widely
diffused among the waters of the earth,
and few particles of earthly matter,
are all that remain of this proud fabric
of man.
A numerous and respectable meeting
of the citizens of Jefferson County Ohio,
held at SteubenviIle, have nominated the
Hon. DEWITT CLINTON for Presi-
dent of the United States, and Gen. AN.
DREW JACKSON for Vice President
As soon as it was proposed that Mr..
Clinton would be a,candidate for the
Presidency, the expression of public
opinion in his favor, seemed to be spon-
taneons, and upon the question being
taken, his nomination was carried with
but three dissenting votes. A resolution
against caucussing was carried unani-
mously, and the nomination of Andrew
Jackson for Vice President, received the
vote of a considerable majority.
Sln0e 0essel captured.-The British
government schooner Union, captured
on the Cd of November, schooner of
about ITO tons, under. Dutch colors,
armed with 9 Founders, and having on
board 237 slaves. The slave schooner
kept up running fight of three hours.

EXECUTION OF RIEGO.

Just as our paper was going to press, we re-
celved papers containing accounts from Cadiz
to the 18th ult. the most important article
ofwhich, is an account of the condemnation
and execution of the patriotic, but unfortunate
Rlego. He was condemned on the 5th, and
hanged at Madrid, on the 9th ult. without
creating any popular excitement. His prop
erty is coniscated.

To POSTMASTERS

The Law makes it imperative on all Post
Masters to give immediate notice TO the pub
fishers of newspapers whenever any subscri-
Der shall discontinue to take his paper from
the Office. This duty is neglected. by many
Post Masters, to the great dSmager, and loss Of
the Printers. To such, we recommend to
their consideration, whether, by such a
breach of duty, they do not render themselves
liable to pay any loss, which may accure in
consequence of their neglect.

Extract of letter from Cambridge, Ms.
Dec. 9.-Official returns from the Turk
ish Custom House at Scio, report forty
one thousand qUomen and children to have
been sold as slaves, and to have paid
auction duties at that Office, in the months
of May and June, 1922. The fathers,
brothers, and husbands of these women
and children, met with more enviable
fate, and were butchered.-W. Y. Am.
Robberies.-The depredations now
committing on our citizens, appear to
be almost exclusively the work of our
"coloured gentlemen" One of this
class, named John Johnson, has been
convicted, at our sessions, of robbing
Captain G. Buckley, of plaid cloak, on
the 18th Nov. while he was on his way
from Harlaem to this city. The ruffian
threatened to knock the captains brains
out if he did not give up his money, but
some persons approaching at distance,
he seized the cloak and ran off, Another
black fellow was discovered few days
ago, concealed in cellar In the sixth
ward, evidently with the intention of
robbiug the house when an opportunity
offered. AS he seemed to be in state
of intoxication, he was supposed at first
TO have accidentally fallen into the eel
lar; but on being removed into the street,
he got on his feet and fed with great
haste-He was however pursued, taken,
and conducted to the Police Office. A
third rufiaD, of the same fraternity, con-
trived to enter dwelling house in &C.
dar street, a few days ago, about one
O'Clock, without being perceived, and
after collecting together the most port
able and valuable articles he could find,
he was in the act of moving off with
them, when one of the family, then in
the kitchen, hearing noise, went up
stairs, and found the thief rolling about
on the carpet, and making great noise,
pretending to be very drunk. The gen.
tleman of the house now appearing, the
fellow was turned into the street. 1t
was Immediately discovered, however,
that he had left an old hat behind him,
and had taken away new one. He was
instantly pursued and overtaken, and,
after desperate struggle, conveyed to
the Police office, where, on being
searched, property was found on him,
belonging to the above house, valued at
1926. He had also stuffed pillow-case
full of valuable wearing apparel, intend
ing to carry it with him had he not been
caught in the act. He is now in Bride
well.-N Y. Zee. Post.

Letters from Spain express belief that the
French will not very soon, if ever, give up
Cadiz and Ceuta, the two strongest places in
the Spanish dominious. So long as these pla-
ces are held by them, it is readily perceived
that they will maintain a strong influence o.
yer the affairs of that country, and will be
prepared to check any appearance of an at
tempt, by the people, to restore the Constitu-
ton, or recover thier liberties.
