LIBHRALITY AND IMPARTIALITY. The Has
sachtsetts (WOrcester) YeOmGn states that the
" Spy mould not publish notice of the Antimd-
sonic celebration in that county for less than dol
lar and then put ii obSeurely among advertisements.
We copy the above from the Ncw York
Whig, as a justification to our readers for
the notice of the Yeoman which we arc
obliged, occasionally, TO take. If the ma
lignant perversions of that paper extended
no farther than the paper itself, and were
read only by those to whom its character
and that of its editor are known, there
would not be the slightest occasion for us
to pay any attention to them. But when
they are copied into distant papers having
a claim to responsibility of character, which
circulate where ours do. but where the
Yeoman is unknown. it is then that we are
most essentially wronged and injured. 1t
is then that we see, in striking light, the
improperly OF placing man in a situation
for which he is unqualified either by capac-
ity or moral principle, for it is then that his
power to do mischief is developed.
Words are not adequate to express our
contempt Of the meGnneSS and dishonesty of
the attempt in the Yeoman TO impute inn
proper motives to us for doing in one case
precisely the same that we do in others,
and not only so, but precisely the same that

SALT MANUFACTURES IN n. YORK.
Extract of letter from, Syracuse, published IN

Extract of a letter from Syracuse, P"O''S"e" "t
the .Netc York Courier;
Syracuse and its neghborng Vii'ages' ecu

manufacture -surpass any thing of the kind In
There are in the four villages 125 manufac- I
tories of salt besides two companies, whose
watts for solar evaporation would extend IN
con, inuous line about fifteen miles each. Last
,veor there were nearly million and a half of
bushels of salt manufactured here, and this
wear am told it will considerably surpass that
Quantity. The great salt spring which sup
plies all the manufacturers with water, is stu
-atcd on the edge of the Oswego canal at a
short distance from the shore of the lake. in
the village of Salina. II is in a soft alluval
soil, and was formerly marsh, till tn; sur face
of the Lake was lowered few years ago and
the ground reclaimed Samphire grows up
'abundantly in the neighborhood. and there are
vast quantities of marine shells scattered along
the shore. On the bank of the canal there is a
large building, containing the immense reser-
voir which supplies the manufacturers for sew
era miles around. Two Immense iron pipes
on an inclined plane, throw up the waller by
two forcing pumps, which are worked by a
large Cater-wheel, driven by water taken from
She canal. The spring is close by. and con-
stantly supplies three pumps with water. The
reservoir, the house, and the buildings attach
ed, have singular bronzed appearance, inter
spersed with salt incrustations, such as one
would discover on the sea shore. Close 10 tin
building there is another reservoir and set o
forcing pumps making, which will be ready
for use whenever they are required by thu
manufacturers. The old spring in Few
years ago, is now superseded by new one, re
Gently discovered, which is much stronger ant
better than the old one. Indeed, in every di
rectioh in this neighborhood, salt springs are t'
be found. A gentleman connected with one
of the companies has discovered an excellen
spring on the margin Of Onondaga Creek, nea
Syracuse, which is said TO be very superior fo
its Strength and purity. Salt water is fount
fby digging into the alluvial formation to thu
depth of 80 or 20 feet but below that they ge

OPINIONS ABROAD. The Quebec Gazette
says: We have extracted for today's paper
correspondence between MeSsrs. Inghom and
Eaton, two persons who have left the American
ministry. 1t is lamcntablc we think TO see so
striking a departure from all the rules of edu-
Gated Society, by men holding such Offices as
those of Secretaries of the Treasury and of
War of the United States. This conduct must
tend to throw discredit on the nation and its
press among foreigners"

IHE MALIaN lNFLUEScE" An article APP
pears IN the United StatesTclegraph, in which
the President is charged with having brought
the differences of Mr.. Eaton and those public
officers whose families declined assocatng with
Mrs. L. before a cabinet council I've have
had many proofs of General jackson folly and
weakness, but this, il true. is the most striking
proof yet afforded the public, and shows how
much more important he settlement of private
grievances appears to him than the promotion
of the interests of the country. The following
passage from the article alluded to, contains
the charge in question. 1t alludeS 10 an article
in the Washington Globe;
"The President, not to say the Globe, says
( that HE endeavored to reconcile the difficulty
in his cabinet When did he endeavor to rec
oncile the cabinet 10 each other The cabinet
( had no quarrel with each other, with the Pres
dent, nor with any one else. No one moved
the matter in the cabinet. Masrs. lngham,
Branch, and Berrien, said nothing to Major
Eaton, nor Major Eaton to them. Who then
introduced this malign influence" into the
Cabinet We believe that the President called

cause any members Of tie Cabinet were in dis
cord, but because Major Eaton chose to attack

When the history of this famous consultation

pretty warm controversy thereon-that the
members of the cabinet said not word abou
it-and that, after a word Of exhortatlon, and
challenge to investigate the matter, the meet

The Physicians ofthe Philadelphia Aims
House, IN answer to a letter from the "Penn-
syvanla Society for discouraging the use
OF Ardent Spirits" mention the fact, that,
during the year 1880, there were admitted
INTO that charitable institution, 2,249 men
I,16l wonderland sos children. They give
1t as their unhestating opinion, also, that
three-fourths of the individuals admitted in
to the AlmsHouse, have become it's inmates
from their habits of intemperance. Sever
al instances Of confirmed mania, and many
OF prolonged insanity, which have occurred
there, are traced to the same cause-and it
is remarked with confidence, that four ffths
OF the deaths occurring IN the Aims House
lnfirmary, are induced by diseases which
have either been originally produced or
very seriously aggravated by the previous
Incorporate habits of the patients. The
venerable coroner of the city of Philadel-
phla, who has been called to examine thou
sands of deceased persons, says, in reply to
letter from the same Society, {" have no
hesitation whatever in avowing it as nv
firm belief, that the use of intoxicating
liquors is the prolific cause of a great pro-
portion of the deaths which come under nv

LETTER FROM CALCUTTA.

Extract of a letter from Mr.. Herrey, an liner
lean Missionary.
II has been for several weeks past quite sick
Nv in Calcutta. Intermittent and bilious fevers.
the cholera &c, have swept into eternity 1900
or 1900 souls week Natives and European
residents are more effected than strangers.
Cart loads of dead bodies in coarse rough
boxes, are often seen passing along the streets
to. be thrown into the Hoogly.
Europeans bury their dead Natives of the
;nipher castles burn theirs those of the lower
castles who are too poor to be at the expense of
burning theirs, throw them into the river, with
all such as have lost their caste.
In coming up the river | saw several corpses
floating on the surface of the water, upon one
of which or crows were feasting. The city
is almost literally alive with crows, kites, and
a large kind of birds called Adjulants, and at
night Jackalls venture into town. These are
all the scavengers of the city. 1t is against
the law TO kill any of the birds; and if | mis-
take not, Jackalls have legal protection
Hence they all become very tame. Crows
often steal meat from the Cook houses and
from childrens hands. The Jackall is much
like the fox, but considerably larger They go
in aroVes and scream and halloe almost exactly
like noisy children Just let out OF school.
Calcutta is about Is miles in circumference,
and contains from half million to $4,000
souls. The European population is from to
10000, mostly English. Such Heterogeneous
race of beings never saw before as are seen
in these streets. Here are people from almost
every nation under heaven, dressed in their
own native costume and exhibiting their own
peculiar manners. The natives of tho lever
caste are entirely naked. except a narrow strig
of cloth round the waist. Their features are
generally good not as dark as negroes, but
nearly Their moral condition is truely deplo-
rabe Bot the Gospel, which alone can ele
vate them, may be considered as already estab
Jshed here, and its influence is to some extent
felt through the city and some of the country
round.

B6NK OF THE UNITED STATES. About the
time when the present Bank was created, the
whole world underwent a change. The thirty
Vesrs' war ended. The golden days of CONNER
ciaI prosperity closed; and instead Of Eng land,
according to the plan of the two Pitts, fighting
all the world with one arm, and supplyin them
with manufactures with the other, all nations
independent of Great Britain set to work to
manufacture for themselves. An entirely new
policy was inaugurated. Pennsylvania, with
out perhaps greater inducements than Virgin
ia, took the new impulse, and became manu-
featuring State. Indeed, the upper and better
parts of Virginia did so too They also set 10
work at manufactures Mr.. Madison and Mr.
Monroe, the successive Virginian Presidents,
perceived the change, and eonformed to it.
Mr.. Jefferson strongly recommended it. I'm
der these auspices, home industry was substi-
tuted for foreign commerce, not to its exclusion.
but as the primary interest of the country and
the country, such parts of it as took and follow
ed this impulse, is now prosPerng beyond all
the examples of the day of commercial pros
perity. part and parcel Of this system rs the
Bank of the United States, by means of its
branches, restoring the currency from state
OF dilapidation, and dffusing sound medium
over all parts Of the U. States Domestic ex-
change operated by that Bank and its branches,
together with domestic manufactures, have
.difased the wealth, which was before merely |
marginal, confined to the Atlantic towns, and |
established it beyond the power of foreign enc
mics to disturb.-PhiLGdstphiG Sentinel

RELGIuM-

The Belgian Congress on the 4ih of June
proceeded to make choice of King. The
votes were for Prince Leopold l52, against HIM
10, for Sulet de Chokier, the Regent, IA .;
nineteen members declined voting, and one
vote was declared null i; total 1876. The decree
proclaimed Prince Leopold King, on condition
OF his accepting the constitution. and taking
the oath to maintain the constitution, the ma,
tional independence, and the integrity Of the
territory. was then passed, ard committee Of
ten members, including the President, was an.
pointed to proceed 10 London, to announce 10
the new monarch his election

1t is said, that Mr.. Randolph, finding his
health too much impaired 10 venture to Russia,
has resigned his commission as Minister to the
Court of St Petersburg, and that his resigna-
ton has been accepted by our government. 1t
is also sad that before his resignation was ac-
cepted, Mr. R. believing that the elections in
Virginia would take place in June, and that he
was therefore ineligible, was partly induced by
this circumstance to request his friend to an
nounce to the District his wish to decline poll
for Congress. Mr.. r. is believed to have set
sail from England before this time.

As Mr. Randolph, (says the n Y CONNER
cial Advertlser) did not remain in Russia but
nine days, he had no opportunity to try the eff
feet of the climate upon his constitution, Per
haps it might have cured him-who knows
Poor man! He must have had miserable time
of it in London. Too sick to do any thing but

CLIMAX OF VILLANT. We spoke of the
excitement occnsioned by the arrest and
carrying away slave, by a CLERGYMAN.
Another minister came as witness ifthev
we're clergymen-if they did not assume
the character.
An extraordinary fact has come to our
knowledge 1t is this: that negro dealers.
or negro hunters, come to reside in differ
ent parts OF the country; and that when it
suits their interests they are kdnappers,
managing the matter thus ;-one of these
dealers sees likely fellow, no matter
whether free or not, if he he friendless. He
obtains an exact description of his person,
the particular marks by which he NAV be
identified. This description he makes to
an accompllce below, who thereupon gets
some one to personate the master-they
come up and arrest the coIored victim
their proofs are clear, swearing is no obsta-
Gle, and the marks go well known are free
ly given, and proof conclusive. We are
not able to say that such villany has been
successful, though we doubt it not but we
do know that such scheme has been laid
of which we shall speak more hereafter
This hint may lead to vigilance, and check
the infamous traffic. 1t is time the public
feeling, so long torpid, was aroused to the
matter.-WeStcheSter Pay Record

HAT MANUFAcToRY. We presume hundreds
of our readers will recclect the hue and cry
raised against the duty of 80 per CT laid upon
imported hats. Prediction opened her mouth
and foretold that this duty would make every
sha. cost 81 so or 200 more to the wearer.-
Long and loud were the camors against the
manufacturers of Hats, for thus presumnp to
tax the People for their own benefit Then on.
'ly the richer classes pretended to put on fur
hat, while the poor were content with felt
straw and chip Now the effect Of this protect.
ing duty has been such as to enable almost ev.
cry man to wear his fur hat, by Iessening the
price Of hats almost TO the amount of the pro-
ftecting duty. The American hats are in fact
not only cheaper, but far better than imported
hats that can be afforded at an equal price
We have seen in Hat Store in this town
white hat manufactured here weighing only a.
ounces II is a beautiful specimen of American
skill and workmanship; and the price is per-
haps or s dollars less than il would have been
ten years ago. Such has been the operation of
the !" aceursed Tsriff''-POrttand .4duertiser.
