EGYPTIAN MUMMrEs-Mr. 3 .ckncham gives
II us his opinion that there are not less inan enc
hundred millions of mummies cnto,nbcd in Egypt
and he describes three singular that
now made of them.
For fuel. The peasantry of Egypt procure
them, break them IN pieces, and use them for fti
el-and as they have little wood, those
dried human bodies serve them in its stead. The
resinous matter and spices which were used in
embalming them, render them quite inf ,mmahle,
aud the odor which is given out at the period of
burning. is said to be quite delightful.
For Medical purposes. In most of the bodies
there IS found solid portions of the bitumen, or
resinous drug which was used in enbaIming
This is taken OF the bodies and sold large
quantities to merchants at Cairo, and from thence
1t is seat to Portugal, Italy, France and England
even, whore ii is pulversed by the apo,hecaries,
done up In small papers, and sold as n most ex-
celient drug TO cure inward bruises. And for
this purpose hundreds of pounds ofthis stuff is ca
ten every year. taken from the inside OF Egyp /
tim mummies.
The other use made of them Is, for printing.

STATE OF THE TREAsURY.-The following message
was received from the President of the United States
by Mr.. Abraham Van Buren,. his Private Secretary
TO the Senate and House Of Representatives:
submit the consideration of Congress statement
prepared by the Secretary Of the Treasury by which
appears that the United States with twenty eight
millions in deposite with the Stales, and fifteen
millions due from individuals and banks, are. from the
situation in which those funds placed in immediate
dagger OF being rendered unable to discharge, with
good faith and pompude, the various pscuniary obi
cations of the Government.
The occurrence of this result has for some time been
apprehended and efforts made it, As the prin-
cipal officially arises from prohibition in the present
law to issue such Treasury might be paid in
before they fall due and may be eectsaly obviated by
giving the Treasury during the whole year the benefit
of the full amount originally authorized, the remedy
would seem to be obvious and easy. NlN

dore having seen the Brig in safe way
and having discharged several shot at tn

the prize Sloop, which wss making for tb'
Scarborough, cut her off, boarded and tool
her and sent her 10 Providence. Capt. Hy
ers in the Washington boldly engaged anC
sustained the fire of the Scarborough I'll
the latter was fairly driven off, and then ths
former having bravely finished her duty
came in to the wharves.
The Spitfre. after dispstching the second
prize, made for the Transport ship the Scim-
etar, being reduced TO lS or 90 hands, hay
ing put IL on board the prize Brig and IL
on board the prize Sloop-but received m
unexpected broadside from the Scymetar--
and by captive midsbipman being then
informed that she mounted iS guns and
had $50 or 200 men, he bore away for
Drenton's Point 10 recruit his men from the
troops; while there the cannon at that point
viz: one "a, and three lS Founders began
to play vigorously on the Scymetur and dis
lodged her; this was about one or two o.
clock in the morning. BY this time the
Scarborough thought best TO take herself out
of the way Of the too heavy and incessunt
fire of the North Battery aud the Washing
ton Galley, and accordingly removed, ond
she with the Sc,metar anchored between
Rose Island and Canonicut, where COM
maBder Grimes once more attacked them !;
leaving Brenton's Point after the ships
we're beyond reach of the cannon there, he
proceeded over towards Canonicui, and fir
ed on the ships, which returned their FIRE
on The Galley. This was rather ia the spr-
il of braysdo; then the Commodore return
ed To Newport and came to the wharf abou,
daylight, as Capt. Hyers had done perhaps
an hour before, after having driven off the
Scarborough. A night Of great enterprise
and success, without the loss of n single
man on our side. Early in the morning
April l4th. one gun Battery began to
play from Canonicut, which dislodged them
sgain and put them to an ignominious
fight, and as they passed Brenton's Point
and Cas,le-fiill they sustained another Wig
orous and animated cnnnonade from 4 or
3 heavy cannon placed there. The ships
returned the FIRE with great fury and de-
parted in rage and disgrace. One Of Capt.
Hvef's men was wounded, since recovered,
else no one hurt on our side, from the COM
mcncement Of the action by Col. Babcock
to the final departure of the ships"

ABoLrTIoN or MARRIAGE.

Mr. CALHOUN in replying TO some excepiionstaken
by Mr.. CaTrENDEs 10 the language Of one OF his
resolutions, which states the petitions for the abo-
tion Of slavery in the District Of Columbia to be
direct" attack upon slavery In the States inquired
II section of the north should petition Congress to
abolish the institution OF marriage, whether that
would not be "direet" attack upon the domestic in
stituions of the south. The answer prob1by is that
1t would BE- a"direci" attack upon the whole insli-
tuition of marriage But it did not occur TO all per-
haps, that as Mr.. Calhoun has come out as file
leader in measure near TO the hearts of the Loco
Focos the alusion to the abrogation Of the marriage
institution was most natural We do NOT mean 10 say
that Mr. Calhoun Is Loco Foco, but only that as
he Is getting TO be first in the hearts Of that portion
of his adopted countrymen, the next thing we may
hear may be his presenting petitions from that party

THE Diplomatic definition of the Globe.
MORE BEAUTIES OF THE sUB-TREAsU-
RY SCHEME.

A late New Orleans paper states, that the
steamboat Black Hawk, on the way from
Natchez to New Orleans, burst her boilers;
and, that there was on board 100000 in spe-
Gle, belonging to the United States, $4,000
of which was saved. The difference, $l5,-
900, we take for granted was lost.
This specie, no doubt consisted Of por-
ton of the excess, beyond the expenditures
collected at the land Offices in Mississippi. In
the operation, is exhibited the beauties Of the
Sub-treasury scheme, which its advocates
maintain has been in full existence for some
months past, and which they wish to per-
petuate.
The actual loss of 1000 to the Govern
ment, Of the peoples money, is trivial cir
cumstance. The ultimate effect Of continued
transfers of surplusses in specie from the States
in which they are collected, cannot but pro-
duce serious embarrassments TO the banks
and business of all such.
1t is represented that the cotton crop Of the.
State of Mississippi, for the present season,will
produce fully fifteen millions of dollars. The
banking business Of that State is known TO be
in most deranged State, which nothing but
the proceeds Of the crop can rectify. II would
seem to us that ii would have been more for
the interest Of the State of Mississippi and its
institutions, as well as safer for the Govern
ment, that the transfers of public money
should be made now, as under tho State Bank
deposite system, through the proceeds of the
crop; and permit the specie collected to re-
main there, us an auxiliary in restoring a
sound currency in the State.
This plan, however, does not coincide with
the views of the Sub-treasury advocates, and
enemies of all banks. Specie alone, is their
hobby, by which they seek to accomplish
their designs.
There can hardly exist a doubt, that for
years to come, the receipt at the land Offices
will far exceed the expenditures in many OF
the States. These surplusses, under the Sub
treasury scheme will be taken away and trans
ported to other States in specie. Are the
representatives Of those States prepared TO
give their support to measure which must
thus operate on their constituents!

In order to have the presentation of Peti-

practice long time, for members to furnish
the Reporters with list or schedule Such
is the dispatch of business on Petition day
that the propriety Of this rule is quite obvious
