LITHOGRAPHlC
FAc-SrMiLE OF rnE LErrERs PRoDucED
sSrHE TRiAL OF THE
REV. r. X. AVERY.
For the murder Of Sarah Mario Cornell.

The publication ofths above work was
announced some months since I; but owing to
the immense labor oftracing, and correctly
lithsgrsp phing 20 much matter, with the care
requisite to preserve perfect fac-simile Of
the original letters, has necessarily delayed
the publication until this time.
They are now completed, and offered tc
the public at very moderate price consid.
ering the nature of tho work, and the nea,
and mastery execution Of the artist In Lith-
ogrsphy lwnliam 8. Pendleton Of Boston]
from the very exact traciDgs OF David Mel.
viii esq. of this town, from the original let
ters in the Office Of the clerk Of the Su
prems court.
The Fac Smiles are printed on paper ex-
actly similar to that on which they were
originally written, as to quality and colour
and stitched in pamphlet form, in an envel-
ops, with notes Of reference, and certifi
Gates of their correctness and perfect Fac
Smile of the original. The object Of pub
fishing them in this form was to crafty the
desire daily expressed to see and compare
the acknowledged hand writing Of z. K. A
very with the letters attributed to him. with
out signaturel found in Miss Cornell's trunk
land also to compare tho known and &C
knowledged hand writing Of Sarah NJ. Cor
nell, with the note found in her band box
sfter her death, about the genuineness Of
which much doubt was expressed BY Avery's
council, and still exists in the minds of many
who have not had an opportunity to compare
the hand writings.
Having carefully examined copy Of the
work We were sgreeably surprised at its no
velty and its correctness and cannot bu,
recommend it to the patronage Of the public
To those particularly who are in possession
Of the Trial, or the writings Of .arisisdes--
and wish to preserve all the facts relating to
tho extraordinary case, il v i'll be rare and
valuable acquisition.
Those who have expressed or felt any
doubts as to the guilt Of Avery from what
they considered want of-proof in the identity
~ ofthe known handwriting Of Avery, and
the handwriting Of the letters in question 10
Miss Cornell, which they have not before had
an opportunity Of comparing, must now
have all doubts removed in the examination
Of these letters. Mr.. Melvill, will doubtless,
realize most extensive sale Of those letters,
and surely he most rictay deserves liberal
patronage, for these letters will remove
doubts that other facts in the case have failed
TO remove. The letters are now before the
jury ofthe world.

in their imaginations, they distinctly

-" Like the sweet south
That breathes upon bank of volets."
How consoling must be a superstition
that causes even the elect TO fear aud
tremble.
DR.. Reynolds in his "iheory of.meto-
ors." says this phenomenon is OCCASION
ed by minute portions of the earthly and
metallic compound of the surface Of the
globe being exposed to the influence Of
the sun,-that they become. yola,ilized
by the absorption of the heat, and then
assume the state Of elastic faids. They
then ascend until they arrive to medin
of their own density, when congregating
into immense and highly concentrated
volumes, they explode and produce this
wonderful appearance Of the heavens"
Such phenomena, though quite uncom-
mon, are attssted from earliest date.
These unimportant appearances, OF
which the iguorant superstitIous mind
stands in dread, have ever been used by
priests and tyrants as means for the
farther enslaving of the human mind.

CHOLERA.

Cholera on Manufactures is now no doubt
Of the existence Of this disease upon the Kanaw-
|ha. Several cases terminating in death in lew
hours have occurred at the Salines, and one or
two have been reported in the Town Of Charles
ton, but not fatal. We learn that very exagse.
rated reports have gone abroad in relation to the
extent OF this disease in our neishborhOod; and.
to the end that we may publish what may be re-
lied upon as the whote truth, we respectfully
request the several Physicians OF the county to
send Us, as early as Tuesday OF each week, a full
report of all cases occurring in their practice
They will readily see the propriety and expe.
diency Of this course, and we hope. Tor the relief
Of the minds of those abroad who have friends

Rumor, we learn, has already sacrificed to the
disease one half Of the population OF Charleston.
when not single death, nor even an aggravated
case OF Cholera, has occurred in the town.
Charleston Kama Banner, July 4.
The Cholera re.appeared among the laborers
on the Canal near this place on Monday last.
owing probably to the intense heat of that day.
The attacks we're Of the most malignant cha
racter. and resulted almost invariably in death
after few hours. We are unable to state pre-.
cisely their number, hu. they might be put down
at fifteen or twenty in all. The disease abated
so far, that on Thursday no new case occurred.
Yesterday, however, there was rumor of three
new cases in one shantee. 1t has caused consi-
derable dispersion among the hands, and must
materially delay the progress OF the work. if it
continue. We learn that the cases have gene.
rally been attended with the usual premoni'ory
symptoms. which have been neglected until in.
cipient collapse; too late for relief from medical
aid. They are also but slightly attended with
cramps or spasms. The citizens ct the town
continue to enjoy uninterrupted good health.
The disease in the West has greatly abated.

nothing can he more absurd. But it should be
recoIected that the Duke Of Orleans is the bro.
