Mr.. Editor,-The family at Churn Hill Farm,
considering themselves privileged, with the rest Of
their fellow citizens, 10 celebrate the .hundreth
birthday of WashingtOn,--tley too had their CEN
teniel.
The day was ushered in, with thanks to the au.
thor OF our being, for casting lots in the land,
where Washington born, and also for preserving
for us, unimpared, to this day, the blessings which
Washington, under Providence, achieved for us
and fellow-ctizens, as well as cntreating that
we might be inclined 10 use our civil aud religious
liberty, and not abuseit Also, that the privileges
we enjoyed, might be handed down to the latest
generations.
After which, the younger branches Of the family
being seated, it was explained to them, who WASH
ingion was, how much the country was indebted,
in gratitude TO him, The sacrifices he had made.
How amidst the gloomy periods of our revolution
AIRY struggle, when the stouest hearts began TO fail
he never gave up the ship, and by giving them
such other information, as was calculated 10 cause
love, veneration and respect for the character Of
Washington.
The day passed pleasantly away in rural diver.
sions, and was closed as il was begun.

LONDON, January II,
Information has just reached us that i courier
arrived in Paris Sunday afternoon, bringing in
telligence that the Cabinet Of ST. Petersburoh had
AFTER several discussions, come To determination
not TO raiify the Tfeaiy of the Conference in the
present siatei and that the Austrian Cabinet had
come to similar decision, without recurring any
further time for consideration. 1t would appear
theieforei that not the slightest hope can he en-.
tertaihed Of ali exchange Of ratifcations even on
the Slst inst and that il tho treaty 10 10 be adopt
ca at ALI it will be after having undergone very
material notifications We stated Yesterday that
tne frussian Court announced Its intention Of
ratiiying, tut rith a condition. ] hat condition,
as stated in the information nuv before us, is that
inc ratification should he eShanged, together with
those OF all the other Powers, but not otherwise !;
consequently it is as dead letter, supposing that
either of the othei Powers refuses 10 ratify. In
publishing these facts they have reached US, we
merely fulfil what we conceive to be our duty 10
cur readers. We may, at the same time, he al.
lawed TO express hope that these new difficulties
may be overcome.--CoErier.

Mcsssrs Editors-Permit me in a plain and COM
prehensve way TO call the public attention, though the
columns OF your paper TO this important and valuable
institution in full and successful operation in Viii
mington The managers met and organized under
their act of Incorporation about the first Of February
The first weeks IF the month were required to pre-
pare books and make all the necessary arrangements
for future operations; conscquently there have been
but two days of this month on which the hank has
been open for deposits (which is On every Saturday
from 10 O'clock 10, and from till 4. p. NJ and in
this short time there have been deposited upwards of
thousand dollars in different sums BY house keepers
persons at service, hands in factories, tradesmen
&c and there is every prospect of rapid increase To
the number of those who have already awaited them
selves ct the advantages which this bank holds out
the poorest person that chooses to make use of
lay up and nurse the little means which he or she NAV
acquire in health and youthfor sickness and old
And it important for thosepersons know flor whose
beneff this bank was chartered that the President
and the officers that direct its concerns derive no ben
eft or favor from its funds. They cannot borrow
farthing from il ON the best securty-but they give
their time and attention without any comDensa
ton and from the best of motives-the desire to do
good, and to every class of their fellow creatures
provident and savingthat they may have some tie
III store for "rany day" about which there can be
"no mistake, and to which they should only fy for
succo'r when cast down by sickness overtaken by
misfortunes or the inrmities of age Every work inn
man. woman and child may here throw in their mites
them and receive their with interest," and this In
terest may again be added to the principal at the end
OF tine year, and the Whole so anew interest," till the
nieanest tres, when thus saved and added together
soon acquire the form and substance of real wealth.
The Managers have published he bye-laws Of The
Society," which canbe obtained by all persons DESTROYS
to inform themselves on the subject, and let all those
who have heretofore spent fast as they have earned
do so no more, but curtail their expenses and put
whatever and ali they spare into the Savings Bank
Let heads of families and factories those
under tteir care and erpl the benefits held out BY
this Society. 1t is fairly established and in hands
that will not ''slight their work"
The faith thus carly bestowed upon the bank in its
common ement, has greatly tended to encourage its
friends, and as they have every confidence in those to
whom they have committed s interest," they can safe
y recommend to the Public with the hope that its
influence may be as extensive its utility will be great
and lasting. FRANKLIN

PuBLIc SENrrmENT.--The burst Of indignation
eliciteo by the rejection of Mr.. Van Bu en- is not
confined to those prints alone which are friendly
to the administration. We'copy with pleaaure the
following just remarks from the Pennington Yeo-
man, neutral paper.
Mn. VAN BUREN.--We learn by the late pa.
pers from Washington, that the nomination Of this
distinguished and talented statesman, as Minister
to England, was rejected in the Senate of the Uni
ted States, by a vote of 90 to 23--the Vice Presi-
dent voting in the negative. Although we do not
take sides with either Of the present prevailing
political parties ofthe day, the excitement ofwhich
is so great as to cause our most eminent statesman
10 bear under the most scandalzing abuse 10 which
the mouth alone is able of giving utterance, yet
we feel it our duty raise our feeble voice against
the conduct of our public servants, in depriving
their country ofthe services highly esteemed and
talented an individual in foreign court. However,
we are ofopinion that free and independent Amer-
ca will not permit one of her distinguished sons to
go unrewarded from the tolls of many long year Of
official duty spentchiehy in her service, but she will
honor him ere long with the highest Office in the
gift of free and enlightened people. Mark that"

The effects Of the late unprecedented ria. IS
the waters of the Ohio appear to be fully as dis.
asterous as the first accounts had led US n s0.

along the Ohio. have been wholly or in uar, i

sustained at Wheeling is given in tue Time, q

Great and Destructive Flood 1t falls toor.

structiye fl0d which has occurred in the hi>,or.
of this country. The Ohio river commenced ~:
ing at this place on Thursday last. On FRIDAY
soon after IL o'clock. it began to overflow r.
banks. The water rose at the rate of 70 inches
an hour Till Saturday morning. when it bean !,
rise less rapidly till eight at night, when it came
to stand and soon after began to fall. The pre.
else height of the river above low water mark b,s
hiuher than II has risen since the memory Of H.
oldest person now living; IT being from 5io 6 f-e
higher than it was at the memorable floods Of 4!
and 10. The destruction Of property occasion
ed by this calamity IS beyond calcu laton. tn.
whole valley Of the Ohio from its source to +;
mouth within the reach OF this tremendous frp,L
ct must present one interrupted scene of waste
Jesoa,inn and distress. The farms on the ricb
bottoms have been swept Of the fences, aud dss.
Iinss, barns. corr aud meat-houses with their CON-
tents. and the stock.
All the towns and villages along the river have
been much injured.
, All the low part 1T our town has suffered Sc.
verely-it is impossible at this time TO estimate
the loss Of property 40 houses, We ATE inform.
ed, mostly small frames have been swept ava,
from SOUTH Wheeling. The bridge over Wheel.

ing bv on tbs river from naturday morning ,iI
12 O'Clock. A large warehouse filed with -four
lodged on the upper point of the Island The
river is now even with the banks. In our ne1!
we shall be able to give more particulars.
" A gentleman who came up the Ohio from
Louisville to Vine cling, and reached this City on
Saturday night, confirms the statement made
above, that almost every town and village on me
river was more or less injured by the overflow Of
the waters. He states that he counted two hun.
dred houses which had been carried Of, and we're
floating down with the current.-Bah. timer.
The Wea.-The western mail, Of YESTERDAY,
brought us no papers from the siciai,y ofthe late
distressing freshet. This circumstance has RE-
ated our uneasiness as there was report in town
on Saturday, that Marisia, Ohio, with the ex
cep,ion of one house, had been swept away. In
1920. this town had 100 houses and population
OF 1000, and from the rapid increase Of that part
of the country. we presume its population must
have been at the date OF the food, between four
and five thousand. -Bah. Chron.

John Edelnn, ESP, is our painful duty to
announce the death of Jon EnsGEN, Esq, late
delegate from Charles county, in the House of
Delegates of this state. Mr.. Edelen was most
estimable man, and united 20 the highest sense of
honor. talents of the most respectable order. As
representative he was intelligent, and faithful
to the interests OF his constituents. Few men
were more deserving of respect, or possessed, in
a higher degree, the confidence Of those who knew
him. He has been cut of in the prime Of life. and
in the fitness of his usefulness. To his surviv-
ing relatives it will be consolation to know, that
his memory will live in the fondest recollection.
He had served in the State Legislature often,and
never without gaining the affections and esteem
Of 'hose with Nhom he acted. He died at Anna
polls. on FRIDAY evening last. OF pleur,sy.
