1t is not little singular Mr.. Editor, that 4
State which processes 10 be the most truly re-
publican in Its g0vern'Haent and laws of any in
the Union, should have been the first to adopt
that arbitrary policy in reference to people Of
colour, which has lately been determined on
hy Ohio. In no State in the Union, among
no people on earth, is there more said about
the blessings oil hderty, or greater jealousy ex-
listing against any measure that bears the ap-
pearance of harshness, persecution, or intoler-
ance than IN that state. Provided that the OBJ
iect Of that harshness, persecution or intoler-
ance happens not 10 be the unfortunate Afrl-
can. The law that has lately been carried
into execution prescribing, except in certain
cases the Feople of colour in Ohio, was pas
sed several years since, and has remained
mere dead letter until very recert tIy. With
whom or from what motives it orig ginated 1t IS
not pe~haps material 10 enquire. but 1t was
probably epr up as the Electioneering Hobby
of some political demagogue, who thought the
measure would be popular with that portion
of the citizens of OHIO, formerly from slave
holding States, an. whose delicate aptlcs 1t Is
presumed were offended at the sight oil hus-
bandmen, mechanics, and labourers, prosecut
ing success ,fuly their pursuits side by slde
with themselves, y hen they had formerly been
accustomed to regard them as it'll better than
beasts of burthen. That such law was not
called for by majority of the people, or in
deed by any considerable portion Of them IS
evident from the fact Of It's having so long re-
manned unnotced Such were its provision
that its constitutionalty from the first seems to
have been questioned, not by lawyers only
| but by all who are acquainted with the mild
tolerant, and liberal character of the constltu-
ton Of that State, of how far ii was agreeable

From the Wedicai Journal-The ques-
ton naturally arises in the mind of every
observer, could not this connecting sub
stance be divided without injury to the
boys? We do not pretend to solve this
problem, which after all can only be fully
decided by the experiment; but we hesl-
tate not to say that after several very ac-
curate examinations, our impressions ate
that such division would he detriment
only to the very respectable and obliging
gentleman who offers them for exhibition
The anatomical structure of this bond Of
union is apparently simple, and we regard
the ia t that children so united should have
been ushered into the world with safety to
themselves and their mother, that they
should have escaped the ills and early ia
| tality which usually attend such prodigles,
that they should have grown up to the age
of Is years in the uniform exercise OF mu-
tual good will and spirit of mutual ac-
commodation, and that they should be so
perfectly contented with their lot, and SO
happy IN all the various unpleasant circum-
stances in which they are placed, as far
more remarkable than that such deform-
| ity should have existed.

much but that upon lit e observation,
various points Of dissimilagity may be no

The substance 5y which they are con-
nected is a mass two inches long al us up
per edge, and abont five at he lower Its
breadth fr IN above dOWuwards may be
four inches and It's thickness III horl-
zOntal direction twn inches. vi course It
is not a rounded cord, but thicker IN the

lection At its lower edge is perceived

on II is substance, which | will denomlnate
the cord, was surprised to find it extre-
mely hard. On further examination this
hardness was found to exist at the upper
part Of the cord only, and to be prolonged
into the breast of each boy. Tracing il
upwards, | found it to be constituted by a
prolongation Of the ensif form cartilage #

veninnce, 10 face in the opposite direction,
Sc that one is always at the right, the 9th
er at the left. Although not placed exact
ly il parallel line, they are able to run
and lean with surprising activity. On
some occasions, a gentleman, IN sport, pnr~
sued them round the ship, when they came
suddenly TO the hatchway, which had been
Inadvertently left open. The least check
would have thrown them down the hatch
wav aud probably killed on or both: but
they leapt over it without difficulty.
They are quite cheerful appear intell-
gent attending TO whatever is presented
to them, and readily acknowledging any
civility AS proof of their intelligence
it is stated, that in few days, they learned
to play at drafts well enough to become an
tagonists ofthose who had long been vers-
ed in the game.
The connexion between these boys might
present an opportunity for some interest
ing observations in regard to physiology
aud pathology here is no doubt, d net
work of blood vessels and some minute
nerves passing from one to the other
How far these parts are capable of trans
mitting the action Of medicines, and espe-
cially of what particular medicines, and
what diseases, arc points we'll worthy OF
investigation. Capt. Coffin informed me
they had never taken medicine since they
had been under his care Once they were
i'll from eating TOO heartily, but were re-
lieved bY the efforts Of nature. He thinks
that any indisposition Of one extends to
the other that they are inclined to sleep
atthe same time; eat about the same guam
ttv, and perform other acts with great ST.
miIiarity. Both he and MIR. Hunter, the
gentleman who united with him IN bring
my them here, are Of opinion that touch
ing one Of them when they are asleep, ava.
kens both.
The pulsations Of the heart are exactly
like in both boys, | counted seventy-three
pnI<atons in minute, while they were
sitting counting first IN one boy, and
then in the other ! then placed my fin
gars on an arm of each boy, and found the
puIsations take place aXactly together -
One OF them stopping suddenly to look al
my watch, his pulse became much quicker
, than that Of the other; but after he hat
returned to his former posture, in about {
quarter Of a minute, his pulse was precise
" like that Of the other boy. This hap
pened repeatedly Their respiration art
Of consequence, exactly Simultaneous.
The harmony Of az ton in primary func

LATEST FROM MEXICO,

BY the Virginia Capt. Collins, from Vera Cruz,
we have received from our correspondent, papers
from that port to the 9Th Jan.
The country is now restored to peace and meas
ures appear to be taken to establish it. The old
Congress assembled at Mexico on the cath, dssoly.
ell their session on the 2-th and the new was OMEN
ed on the lst January, with harmony. Guerrero
has been by the Chamber of Representatives declar-
ed President Bustamerte, Vice President, and
Santa Anna, Minister of War. Guerrero, before
this, having received the Chief Command of the
troops of Mexico, Vera Cruz, PuebIa and Caaca
had entered Puebla (the centre of Pedrazas' party
at the previous advces.) and published procama
ton, promising protection and security under the
laws and exhorting all persons to return to the en-
p!oyments and pursuits of peace.
