. Sh<aihing for ships boifo~s.-A new
metallic sheathing, the invention OF Baron
Wet,ei stcds, has recently been made ior
covering ships bottoms. VIII ch is said to
possess many practical advantages over
copper. This new compound IS descrl-
bed as highly tenacious, elastic, and is
said to possess the peculiar and advanta-
gcous power of adapting itselft to the sur
face, so much so, that, by violent strain
o. blow, il readily yields to the force ofihe
percussion. This power Of adapting IT.
selfto any form Of surface, will not only
he found advantageous on first shcathins
the vessel, but will also. prevent the evi!
effects Of strain or blow, and even tend
much to preserve her from external inju-
w, The price is considerably less than
that Of extraordinary copper sheathing,
willis, il is found to DO far moro durable.

Mr.. Francis. The disapprobation
expressed by the freemsn to the Intrigue
and management, by which the gentle.
man at the head Of this article has been
brought forward IN opposition to Gov.
Arnold, has called forth u curious sort Of
manifesto from the alnalgamation CON-
mIttee,-in which they declare certain
things peculiarly well calculated to set
forth the modesty and consistency Of Mr..
Francis, and their own patriotic prcten-
sions to political consideration.
1t appears, from this statement, tha,
MIR. Fraacis unhesi'atingly declined the
nomination inas,nuch a. he could not
consistently oppose Gov. Arnold !; but to
effect pacifcation, and put an end III
once to political turmoil and party rancor,
the committee, two of whom, }. X. Wa
terman and Judge Branch, have long been
celebrated in Rhude Island, as partizan
pacifcators, still persisted in placing the
name OF Mr.. Francis at the head 'of the
mongrel ticket and have since been told,
that, though not candidate, Mr.. Fran
els will serve, if elected :! We hardly
know which to admire most, the patriot
ism and importance of the Committee, OF
the modesty and consistency oi Mr.. Fran

Whoever wishes to see masierly and
triumphant vindication Of the constitution
of their country, and lucid exposition oi
the dangers and absurd principles Of null
lifcation, will not Gail to procure and read
the speech Of the Hon. Daniel Webster,
on the Enforcement Bill We regret
that its great length precludes its insertion
in our columns and we Cannot consent
to mutioie so connected and logical pro
duction, by giving only few exxacts.---
1t may be considered on the whole, as
one OF MIR. Webster's highest efforts, and
is said to have been spoken in his charac-
teriAlc manner, with overwhelming elo-
quence and power. The great aud lead
ing principles Of constitutional law, in
their original simplicity and obvious sense,
are brought heme to the feelings and per-
ccptions of the most ordinary capacity,
with power and force Of demonstr alton,
which has seldom been equalled. For
beauty, strength, and simplicity of style,
for force aud clearness Of argument, VIZ
have seen nothing TO compare with it !
and take pleasure, therefore, in commend
ing it to our readers for u careful perusal.
Those also who arc desirous Of seeing q
correct exposition OF the principles con.
tanned in the famous resolutions Of the
Virginia Legislature, which have been
considered by many TO countenance sud
support the notification doctrine Of South
Carolinia, will do well also to read the
speech Of the Virginia Senator. Mr..
Isiyes; who adheres to the resolutions, ss
he understands them but dissents from
tho constructions Of modern cOmmen,a.
