Louisville, Cincinnati and Charleston Rail
Road. Every citizen should subscribe for one
or more shares, and all who can afford it should
subscribe literally. Only Ffe Dollars is to
be paid on each share, at the time of fsubscrl-
hing, and this will be returned should the
scheme fail. The Shares are One Hundred
Dollars each; and after paying the first FIVE
dollars, no more will be required, unless the
plan succeeds; and then only In small amounts
at such long intervals, that no subscriber can
be nut to any inconvenience, inmaking his pay
ments. Before the whole amount can be call
ed for, a part of the Road, within the State,
viii be made, Of which every one Will feel the
benefits. This Great Work will enrich the
whole State. Every man will be able to get
his crop to market, and to procure his supplies,
cheaper and quicker than at present, and will
be able to travel in two days, as far as he can
ROW in ten. The money subscribed will be
spent at home, there viii be an increased de-
mand for all kinds of labor, and we shall have
markets almost at our own doors, for all our

and brotherinlaw to the other. One OF them
Knocked him down, unarmed, with club and
continued to beat him with the esameinstrument,
while the other stood by with cooked pistol
in each hand, belching forth oaths that he
would kill any man who should attempt to in
terfere. A number of persons however did
interfere, and the savage actually did shoot at
one of them, but owing to sudden movement
of his body at the instant of firing, the ball
only grazed his skin. 1t was aimed at his
heart. The fellows are In jail.

VEGETABLE EXTRACT.

sIJF" INC cure " A"o" DtSfeWpeT,SC.
VUNIIlS is the most valuable remedy yet discov-
d cred for the cure Of Throat Distemper, or
Malignant, Putrid, liberated Sore Throat; Scar
let Fever; Canker Rash; Canker in the Mouth,
Throat and Bowels; iDar,eha; Dysentary; Sore
Mouth Of Nursing Women; and the Acrid liumors
Of Teeihing Children; in short, for almost all the
aiiec,ons Of the Mucus Membrane Of the Mouth,
Throat and Alimeniary Canal. These diseases
are acknowledged by all Physicians to be Of the
most severe and obstinate character, aud have
long bailled their skill and research. The dscOv-
cry, therefore, Of an eflectual remedy for them,
particularly for the various forms OF Scarlet Fe-
yer, must be considered by every true philanthrO-
pist a. an invaluable desideratum. As common
and perfectly safe family medicine, it will be
found Of inestimabe value in cases OF common
Sore Throats and Colds; disordered state Of tho
Stomach and Bowels; such as habitual COstive-
ness; Indigestion; Flatulency; Nausea and Vom-
iting. Also, in cases of weakness arising from
Fever and all debilitating diseases such as Con-
sumption, sc; it will be found very beneficial as
a cathariic aud alternative, AZ it neither causes de-
bilty, nor does il is the case with the opera
ton Of most medicine, so readily dispose one to
take cold.
The Vegetable Extract has now been some time
before the public, and its great powers justly tes-
ted. Hundreds Of individuals have successfully
tried it, and several eminent Physicians are in the
almost daily use Of it in their practice. who are
truly asionshed at its great curative qualities, and
are ready to give their testimony in favor OF its
efficiency and power. There now remains but
one obstacle in the way Of its very general use.
and that is, the price. The proprietors. being de-
sirous to obvate this difficulty have therefore de-
tern,inod to reduce the price to 62A cents per bot
tie, for one year, which barely remunerates for
the great expense Of preparing the article; this
will bring il within the means Of every person, SO
that no one need suffer for the want Of it; and the
poor man be able to obtain it for himself and
family, as well as the rich.
N. B.-Should any one still feel scrupuous Of
what is here stated, relative TO- the Vegetable Ex-
tract and will call on one Of the proprietors, No.

dations which will accompany each bottle, other
abundant and most satisfactory evidence will be

in the union, where young men are less in-
dustriously inclined, or taught useful branch
cs Of trade than ours. Two pursuits seem to
have the only attraction for parents and chill
drcn-the law or the counting house, neither
of which in these times, promise any consld-
erable advantage to young men; and though
they see lawyers without practice, and mer-
chants without profit, while the tailor, shoe
maker, butcher, baker, aud other mechanics,
are comfortable, yet will their foolish pride
be- shocked AT the name Of II tradeSmaD, and
they would rather stafve as gentlemen, than
labor as mechanics.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.

The government Of a nation, of a kingdom,
OF city, village, or family, is predicated
pretty much on the same basis; an enlarged
and extensive system is required for the ma
ton, which system decreases in Importance
until it reaches the family; yet the government
Of family, and the regulation Of domestic
concerns, are the main springs to higher de.
partmcnts and are ever objects of peculiar at
tention. | have had frequent occasions to
complain of the want Of attention and system
to domestic concerns generally, but particu-
larly TO the instruction Of children, and the
example of industry ond economy, which is
necessary to be exhibited to them to secure
their happiness through life. Some parents
think that they acquit themselves if they treat
their children tenderly, send them to school
and give them plenty to cat; but with all their
good intention, they neglect the most partic-
ular branch of their duty.-A tree will not
grow fair to the sight and produce fine fruit
by merely watering the roots, its branches
must be occasionally trimmed, and all noxious
sprouts cut of; in short, like a child, it de-
mands attention; and child does not require
D sickly, incessant and anxious superintend-
snce, but simply a regard to health, morals
Ind usefulness. Probably, there is no city

I
! INTELLECTUAL PnILosoPHy.-We arc not
about to offer an essay upon the subject which
stands at the head Of this article, nor a li.era-
ry criticism upon any book which relates to
it. A daily newspaper would be as unfit n
medium for the publication Of the former, on
account of the deep study and fixed attention
which the subject would require of the reader,
as it would be for the publication of the lat
ter, on account Of the necessary liability Of
the medium itself to all the inaccuracies of
thought and language, which are the legiti-
mate subjects of critical reproof. But it is
our design to direct the attention Of our read
ers to work recently published in this city,
which we have read with unmngled admira-
ton and delight. 1t is presented to the read
er under the indefinite and unostentatious
title of"LANGUAGE," and the timorous author
has put forth this first offspring of his genius
under the very anonymous patronymic of a
"Hcteroscian;' word signifying "that por-
ton Of the earth's Inhabitants, who dwell be-
tween the tropics and the polar circles"
For the honor of our little State, of which
circumstances have assured us that the author
is native citizen, we hope that in the next
edition, he will at least circumscribe his To-
cality to Rhode Island, albeit he should still
be too modest to assume the chaplet which
the learned and the wise have already woven
for his brow.
We shall not attempt to describe this book
any further than to say, that it treats of Ian
guage in its broadest sense, as a means of
communic alton between rational beings, and
as an instrument Thought. Much oft, like
much Of all metaphysical reason, is sustained
only by analogy, and it is sometimes highly
visionary; but when the writer is led by his
analogies into the region of floating probabili-
tics, the images of his fancy are extre,oely
beautiful, and the flights of his imagination
adventurous and sublime. He even lifts the
curtain which hangs between US and futurity
and opens to the unobstrncted vision, broad
view of those things which "eye hath not seen
nor car heard, and of which it hath not enter
ed into tho heart of man to conccive."-
Propositions which philosophers and dvines
have abored through tedious controversies to
establish, he has demonstrated withthe clear
ness and brevity ofintuition; he has exhibited
the obstacle to harmony Of sentiment through
out society, and explained the true causes Of
bitterness and hatred between different sects
1t is great excellency Of this work, that /
is written with pcrspicuity that renders il
ineligible to common understandings, ant
is so full of commanding interest that it will
be read without any effort to fix the attention
Finally we conceive it to be one OF the great
est achievements of the human mind; a mint
bending its untried pinons into the unknown
and unexplored regions of religion and phi
losophy,an there combining the grandeur o
new and undiscovered truth with the highes
beauties of poetical description and illustra
| tion
