that the Legislature of Connecticut have

WASHINGTON CITY-An election for
the choice Of members ofthe Common Coun-
Gil took place in Washington city on Mon
day last. The election was made matter
Of political opinion. more particularly in the
second and third wards, and the result was
that all the Wing candidates were triumph
anily returned. In the two wards mention
ed, the vote was more than two 10 one in
their favor. This is the result of an init
mate acquaintance with the government
officials residing in that city, and know
ledge of their character and conduct. In
deed, so far do the inhabitants OF Washing.
ton carry their hatred of the principles of
the administration, and their contempt for
The individuals comprising il, that some of
these northumberland especially MIR Van

possessed by the Washingtonians be spread

We publish to-day the proceedings OF the
Wing meeting in this town, on the 9th inst.
10 choose delegates to the State and County
Conventions. II is very desirable that every
gentleman selected should attend TO the duty
assigned 10 him, for the good Of the cause; and
we hope that nothing but the paramount claims
of business will be allowed 10 interfere with
their exerlions in favor Of good government
and sound principles. Let no one think that
his individual presence as one among many
may be easily dispensed with the idea is dan
gerous to concentrated and vigorous action II
is evident that the notion may occur TO one
as we'll as to another, and thus an apparent in
difference be generally shown when real in
terest is actually felt it is the only safe way
for every one to feel as if he were the only
delegate, and act accordingly. II is hoped
that the other towns in the county will act
with like prompttude in making arrangements
for full delegation to both Conventions
The tories are drumming up their well trained
bands to the work Of destruction, and the
Wings, though incapable from their very spirit
of freedom of being taught 10 move in the reg
ular array Of party discipline like the drilled
troops of the enemy, must come forward in a
mass TO the business of preservation, and their
unframed force, strong in the impulse OF liber-
", will drive the disconnected bands Of the
" rank and file" men from the field.
The June number Of the Ladies Compon-
ion. has lust been received, and to say that IL
EQUALS former numbers in interest IS praise en-
ough. We have the beginning of another ex-
quiste story by Mrs. S. Smith. Our readers
may be surprised that we should so soon re-
peat our expression Of admiration of this lady,
but we cannot help doing SO. TO cur taste
she is by far the first female prose writer in the
country, or out Of it either, so far as our read
ing extends. We do not wish 10 disparage the
other contributors TO the Magazine-they are
all respectable, some very good-but 'twere
vain TO affect doubt that she far outshines
them all. To receive an article monthly from
her pen is alone worth the moderate price OF
the periodical. We have received also the
frs, number OF proposed publication Of the
DoWning Papers, 10 comprise the celebrated
letters Of the original Major Jack, and other
compositions Of similar stamp by the same
author The first series consists Of Mr.. John

Scarlet F'ereF. We find 10 the Northamp-
ton Courier communication from an old ply
stefan in which he gives what he believes 10
be sure remedy for this malignant disease
He says" A solution Of tartar emetic, FIVE
grains TO pin, of hot water, should be given
10 the patient in quantities just sufficient 10
nauseaic, when the terrible symptoms run high.
When thirsty he may drink pretty freely of
saffron, low balm or imperial tea. 10 the uses
Of calhartics great care should be taken 10 adj
minister mild medicines, and by all means TO
avoid The use Of calomel. When the patient
is troubled with spasmodic affections, opia,es
should be administered, elixirs 10 children, and
to adults generally laudanum. To prevent the
wires (produced BY the exhalations from the
body, from being re-absorbed and thus finding
its way back TO the lungs and Wis vitg, have
found the following mode Of treatment very
beneficial, viz TO wash the patient with milk
and water once 10 five or six hours, and cover
with coating Of Indian meal.n The writer
says when he was in practice fifty years ago,
if be lost one patient in twenty, he attributed
Il 10 bad management on the part OF the nurse,
and for thi " he was uniformly, successful,
whenever il prevailed. We hope this remedy
will be found as successful now as il was fifty
years ago, but il is possible, the disorder has
changed in some of its features within a half a
century. IL is now a dreadful seourge 10 the
young, and ifa remedy can be found for ii, the
dlscoyeTer will be entitled to the gratitude of
The world. IL appears TO be unusually fatal

VIRGINIA ELECTION. The result of the Vir-
GINA Election appears more favorable to the
Wing cause than was feared by some of our
friends in this region. The two great parties
are so subdivided in Virginia, by conflicting
views on some points Of national or state poll
cy, some members holding to one party in some
of their principles, and to the opposite party in
Others that il is extremely difficult 10 estimate
the precise strength Of either.
II seems certain that the opposition, includ-
ing the conservatives with the Wings, have
a majority in joint ballot in the state leg
slalure. If they can agree together, an oppo-
sition governor, and Senator to Congress mar
be chosen. or the probability Of such agree
ment we cannot judge. We refer our readers
to another part Of the paper for details.
The Committee on Divorces 10 the Connect
icut Legislature have reported, that MIS-. Jar
Wis have leave to withdraw her petition, and
the Report was accepted by the House almost
unanimously. The chairman remarked on
presenting the report, that if it were adopted,
both parties could depart with honor as Dr.
Jarvis was acquitted, and no censure Of the
lady expressed. During the trial, which lasted
eight days, the feelings of the crowded audi
ence were repeatedly manifested in favor Of the
Doctor, and this feeling was prevalent gener-
ally in the community Of Hartford. Though
the charges against the Doctor were found TO
have little or no foundation, il is on the other
hand gratifying 10 Mrs. Us friends to perceive
liat his allegations against her in his answer
TO her petition are many Of them disproved, or
abandoned by his counsel in their closing nrgu-
ment.
Mrs. Jarvis is said to possess a very expires,
sive face, and manners so intelligent, gCacefal
and lady like, that even in crowd she atour>
attracts the notice OF strangers. In her youth
she was bcsieged by suitors IN swarms. Why
il should be that this celebrated couple with no
malicious feeling towards each other, and no
criminal conduct should have destroyed instead
of promoted their mutual happiness by their
connexion, is a matter Of curious speculation.
The explanation which Mrs j. herself gives
Of the circumstance is staItlng-we commend
il to the thoughtful consideration Of our fair
readers, without veniuring TO hint an opinion
touching its correctness. A witness upon the
Trial stated, that he once asked Mrs. Jarvis why
union formed under such happy auspices as
hers with DIR. Jatvis, proved SO unhappy; she
replied, MY grea, fault was that | married
the man whom had three times rejected"
The Widow Of Genl Hamilton attended the
trial as witness for Dr.. Jarvis, and excited the
curiosity Of many to press through the crowd
for the sakeof getting sight Of her. She is We
ry aged, but her counteuanee is remarkably in
telligent aud cheerful.

Collins was chosen Clerk, and Harry Hib-
berd Assistant Clerk. The officers are, of
course, all from the administration party.
Blythe result Of the late election in Vir-

practices of the party in power. The Tories
cannot long conceal their true character.

fiuence Of the temperance reformation mon
strikingly apparent than upon our gala days,
musiers, elections, 4Ih Of July, &c. The quiet
and orderly behavior ofallelasses at these times
is not indeed the chief good which temperance
has elected in the habits Of daily lie the
blessings Of the reform are, and should be prin-
cipally found-but they do not arrest the cure
less eye, as the contrast between the old cee
brations Of public days and the present method
does. Twelve years ago June TIainin' was
enacted on field whence many were borne to
their homes in state Of "glory," too intensely
felt TO permit them TO guide their conduct BY
the formal rules of conventional decency.-
Broken heads were not unusual, black eyes
frequent, overturned wagons numerous, delap-
idated ves,ments innumerable. Ruin was ev-
cry where visible, but the most universal, and
the most energetic was Of the I" blue" sort
Nothing Of the kind was seen at the last as
sembling ofour citizen soldiers upon this sol
emn occasion. or martial spirit indeed there
was little displayed There was merry
twinkle in the eyes Of the gallant band who
sauntered through our street, and comic gfSy-
ity upon their faces intimating clear enough
that they thought themselves engaged in a
practical joke, rather than The performance of n
serious duty. The palmy days Of the militia
are certainly passed for the present. II seems
TO us, that II must needs be so, after time of
profound peace; an interest in the mimicry Of
war cannot be kept up among people who
have no cause 10 dread the approach of real
contest but the martial spirit is no, exiting
uished let there be reason TO expect foreign
aggression, and the mere skeleton Of militia
which we now possess will instantly become
instinct with bold and vigorous life.
A dispute is going on in New Hampshire
regarding the location Of the proposed Asylum
for the Insane, which is producing so much as
perty Of feeling rs TO threaten serious injury
TO the benevolent enterprise Some papers as
sert that there is danger that some individuals
will withdraw their subscriptions, owing 10
their dissatisfaction with the course pursued by
others concerned. Though they cannot do
this, il the corporation act legally, yet il is
unpleasant, and directly injurious TO The iFsti-
tuition to be obliged to enforce its claims 10 vol
untary contributions by process oflaw. Fierce
contentious tend strongly to turn away the ia
vor of the calm and rejecting portion Of the
public from an enterprise, however laudable in
itself; and it is very desirable on every account
that the parties to this controversy should cul-
tivate conciiatory spirit, and the noble de-
sign be carried on TO fulilment by the harmo-
NOUS labors of all It's friends.
