POLITICAL.

New HAMPSHIRE. The annual election in
this State took place yesterday. The Admins
tration candidate for Governor is John Bell,
and Governor Pierce is the jackson candidate
The contest has been severe, and the result is
very doubtful, not that we think there is any
doubt that an immense majority of the people
prefer Adams TO Jackson, but the jackson men
have proclaimed theirs as the genuine republi-
can candidate, and have very artfully and in
dustriously held up the idea that State and Ma
tional politics have no particular connection,
and should be kept distinct. They are thor
oughly organized, and are led on by Isaac Hill,
host in himself, in intrigue and management
If he does not succeed, it will not be because
any possible means of insuring success to such
cause has been neglected.
New YORK. Accounts from all parts of
New York assure us that the cause of the Adj
minisration is doing welT>> The friends of civil
order are coming utand shelving their strength.
Meetings are holding, preparatory to general
State Convention, for the purpose of making
arrangements for the election of electors. In
all the western parts of the State, it is said
there will be no opposition to the Administra-
ton candidates, and tho Albany Gazette says
the State will give John Quincy Adams as
many votes as it did in 1924
MARYLAND, A bill has been passed by a
large majority in the house of delegates of this
State, for the choice of electors of President by
general ticket. 1t will, probably, pass the Sen
ate, in which case the whole eleven votes of the
State will be secured in favor of the present
Administration.

From a late London paper.

CHILD WITH TWO FACES. A most
extraordinary caprice of Nature occurred
IN Taunton, on Sunday morning last, in the
birth of female child having two distinct
and perfectly formed faces. Elizabeth
Verrler, the mother of the child, had, pre-
vlously, seven healthy children, neither of
them exhibiting the least deviation from or
binary nature. In the present instance
there was no prematurity of birth the
child lived three quarters of an hour, and in
the course of that period cried very audibly
three times. From which of the two mouths
these cries issued is not ascertained; but
there is nothing in the structure of either
OF the faces to indicate a superior faculty
IN one over the other; every component
part of the faces is distinctly formed in each.
and both of them present the pleasing coun-
tenance of two fine babes. At that part of
one of the faces where the usual formation
OF the ear takes place, the additional face
commences, with a slight undulation to-
wards the cheek of the second face. which
Then proceeds through all its regular fea-
lures until 1t terminates at the left ear-so
that the face on the right side has one ear.
and the face on the left one also. The
space on the back of the head is, from the
encroachment Of the faces, very limited !:
but It is, as well as the upper part of the
head, covered with hair. In all other res
poets the child is regularly formed. A
very accurate drawing has been made of
the child. The mother has received con-
siderable sum, in various donations. from
the great number Of persons who have been
permitted to see the infant, which has been
put in spirits.
Economy IN LONDON. Some idea NAV
be formed of the economy practised in this
great city, from the following fact, which
my companion related as having lust come
to his knowledge. About four hundred
broken down cart and coach horses are
slaughtered every week, and boiled, for the
cats and dogs in London. There are four
licensed horse butchers, who kill each a.
bout fifty per week, which they purchase at
an average price of twenty-five shillings
head. The skins are sold to the leather
dressers; the shoes to the iron-mongers
the hair to the upholsterers the bones to
the button makers; and the flesh, after
being boiled inh1ge kettles, to the retailers
of cats meat who~sell it out by the pound
to their customers, as regular as the bakers
supply the families with bread THUS
every thing is turned to account by this
economical people.--Letters Of I'm. Tyau.

necessary Tor choice, ~
= Pennsylvania and Virginia are doubtful, and
the chances in both of them are about equal, for
either of the candidates. The remaining
States, giving 63 votes, Gncluding 10 in New
York; will probably be for Jackson This es-
innate is made upon present appearances
They may, however, materially vary before the
time of election.

Extraordinary Discovery. An elm tree,
recently blown down at Barry, near Amberly
castle, containing 40 feet of timber, was few
days since sawed across in the midst when the
nest of tomtit was discovered in perfect state,
in which were five eggs, as fair to the eye as if
deposited but few days. The solid mass of
timber which enveloped this curiosity must be
the growth Of many years. No mark could be
discovered of the original entrance. The nest
at the nearest point, is five inches from the out
side of the timber.-EngGSh paper.

DUELLlNG. The house Of representatives of
New-York have passed an act against duelling
by vote Of SO to 80. The act declares that
the inhicting of wound in a duel beyond the
limits Of the state, of which death ensues with
in the state, is murder, and subjects seconds to
punishment US felons, whether death cnsues or
not.

THE HIGH CRANBERRY. Few people seem to
be aware that this shrub, or small tree, which
grows plentifully in the marshes and swamps
around us, yielding rich clusters of very hand
some fruit, a delicious tart, may be cultivated
with ease and success in our gardens and shrub
berries Without knowing that the attempt had
ever been made, tried it last spring, with some
half dozen shrubs, all of which bore the trans
planting very well, for they lived, grew as Wig
orously as most vegetables do the first year, and
some of them bore fine lunches of fruit The
twigs taken off, put out as cuttings, also took,
which shows with what facility we may stock
our gardens with Observation-Disclosures y4dv.

singular DISEASE. A missionary at one of
the Society Islands writes that many people
have been cut off by kind of apoplexy within
a few months. They are seized almost instan-
taneously with a locked jaws and paralized
limbs. Sometimes several are attacked in the
house Of worship, on the Sabbath, and fall
down one after another. The disease, which
appears to have originated in the air, began at
Tabati, and thence spread to other islands.
They now cure most Of the patients, by rub
bling, chafing, bleeding, emetics, &c

ANOTHER SIGN" The following is the
best application ofthis term that we have seen
of late One moonlight night as Jack was
leading his father home from the tavern, where
his potations had been too deep and strong for
his head, the old tppler raised his foot to step
over the shadow of the Sign post What
what is that ?" quoth the old man Nothing
but the sign replied the dutiful SON. " Sign
sign of what 7" demanded the votary Of BAG
chus. "Why, sign that you are drunk, ia.
ther," replied Jack-N Y Com. Ade.
