Trouble among he Anti-mas0nS- prosecuting each- other, Sc.-The charge of Masonic abductons and prosecutions which has kept political antimasonry alive, and made this great State the scene of excite ment, asperty and i'll will beyond measure, is now coming home to the right source The following shows that antimasons have arrested and imprisoned upon pretence of debt one of their most active and talented Editors, W. w. Phelps of the Ontario Phnnix It seems that Mir Phelps took trip to Palmyra, from a curiosity to compare "the Book of Norman" new discovery, with the Bible, and while there arrested by certain persons living in Canandagua and thrown into Jail where he must remain thirty days, leaving sick family at home. This is something like the original arrest of Morgan for q small debt at Canandaigua, but let us hear what he says, which is curious.
 |" Is this one of the principles of antlmasonry? If 1t is save me from it's ransacking scourge, for it is cruel as the grave, parting and wife, and vaun- ing in the dregs of Imprisonment for Debt!
 Three years have labored for the public good and three times have led the free men of Old On tarlo to victory. l have always meant good, and have had the name ofso doing--tben for what act have been cast into prison? Let public opinion declare have risked all and spent all in the cause of anti-masonry-my just dues are somewhat more than my debts :-therefore if those concerned and who have had the benefit of my services. will take the whole and square all, by giving S150, which is only fifty dollars year for three years hard labor, they welcome to it; otherwise shall send fire brand abroad which shall light unquenchable flame! l shall not be separated from the Ontario Phoenix by Lord -, for nothing, go into it again disgraced. The people of Ontario will not suffer "CEiURCH AND STATE to mix and fat federalism. They will glory in seeing what has been divided in April, scattered in November unless receive the need of my merit"
 Mir Phelps may make himself easy the anti-ma- sons will give $50 and thrice that sum, rather than lose an auxiliary so valuable. But it will be asked what is meant by the remark that old Ontario will not support Church and State for the benefit of the federal party.-This may be explained by referring to the Albany Evening Journal which re-pubsLes a paragraph recommending Mclean for President, and Granger for Vice-Presdent. We have long been satisfied that the anmasons would not vote for Clay;the game, then, is to get up such candidates the anti-masoncs could vote for, leaving the strength of he State to be divided between Jackson and Clay; or if they could in between the two candidates, destroy the electoral vote of this State, by giving it 10 who is not in the field. These plans however, cannot succeed, if they continue to arrest their editors It may trouble to let the an,masons know that this State will not be broken down in it's electoral vote t will he either Jackson or Clay; and we willing to abide the result, and meet tho conflict whenever it comes.-N. Y. Eaq.
 Co6se.-The general effect of coffee upon the | nervous coat of the stomach is, unquestionably gentle stimulant; and as most substances of that class have, to certain extent, tonic power it may be safely recommended to individuals whose powers of digestion have been debtatcd by stimulants of more powerful character such as lermented liquors wine, spirits, etc. The custom of taking coffee after late dinner, and just before retirement to rest, is bad, because its stimuent property the of the stomach exerts power destructive to sleep 1t promotes an activity of the mind, and gives range to the imagination, which prevents sefforgetfulness, that sure hamburger to repose.-Mannal of Inraiids.
