DISPUTED TERRITORY.


We invite the particular attention
of every reader to the report of Mr.
Buchanan, on the subject of the
northern boundary. 1t is an able
production; and certainly places
that plain question on very strong
grounds. The subject is one of
observing interest at the present
moment, and it is the duty of every
citizen to make himself familiar
with the merits of a controversy
that may sooner or later involve the
two nations in bloody war.
BURNING OF THE CAROLINE.
WE publish the correspondence
between the American Minister,
Stevenson, and Lord Palmerston,
the British Foreign Secretary. 1t
Will be seen that the u. >. Minis
ter takes clear and manly view
of the question, creditable to him
as a Stateman and the Representa-
tive of the Republic. But these
documents are nearly year back
and from no quarter can we receive
any assurance that what was so vel
begun, has been continued, or tha
these demands for redress, so strong
ly founded in justice have not beef
laid aside "lill more convenicn

MAINE.


The general import Of our intel
ligence from the east is decidedly
pacific. Gen. Scott has doubtless
been successful in efl,ecting COM
promise. Gov. Fairfield has al
ready discharged a portion of his
troops, and announces his intention
of dischargng the remainder, except
a number sufficient to protect the
timber against future deprcdations.
"A letter from Augusta, of the 18th
says-"Gen. Scott received letter
last evening from Sir John Harvey,
of a highly pacific character. There
is but little doubt entertained here
that our present difficulties with the
provincial government will be ami
cably settled. Gov. Fairfeld's re-
cent message to the Legislature,
covering his correspondence with
the general government, and detail
ing his movements on the Restook,
has met with the following response:
Resolrcd That whenever the Governor of This
STATE shall be fully satisfied, either by the decara.
ton Of the Lit. Governor Of the Province Of New
,i,t. ntl,n In bt,y
all idea Of occupying The disputed territory with a
military force, or Of attempting an expulsion Of the
civil force, sent there under our Land Agent-lhat
then the Governor of this State be authorised 10
Withdraw our military force, leaving the Land
Agent with a sufficient posse, armed OF unarmed, as
the case may require, to drive out or arrest the
trespassers, and to preserve and protect the timber
from their depredalons.
This resolve-if it passes the
Legislature, and we have but little
doubt that it will-leaves the whole
matter in the hands of the Cover
nor, the practical effect Of which
will be, that 1t. Gov. Sir Johr
Harvey will write IA diplomatic let
ter to Governor Fairfield that viii
"fully satisfy" him Of the pacific in
tention of Sir John. Our troop:
will be withdrawn-the trespasser
will come on and take off the prin
cipal part of the timber they have
cut, and all will be quiet. Thu
f people of Maine will be told tina
the General Government have &C
knowlcdged their rights, and that

to settle the whole matter. Wi

STORM AT THE U. 5. CAPIrAL,-On the
Goth inst, the city of Washington was Wis
tied by heavy rain, accompanied with
thunder andlig lightning, whichiuficted consid-
erable damage on the cellars and pavements
on the Pennsylvania Avenue. The lnlelli-
gencer gives the following particulars.
"The cellars of Messrs. Middleton & Beal,
wholesale and retail groccrs, of Messrs. Fos-
sett 81 Fletcher, inn-kecpers Mr.. ]. Nj.
Farrar, and Meyworth, were filled with wa
ter, which, in the two former, has caused
very considerable damage. On the. first
floor of Mr.. Flrrar's house, there was wa
ter to the depth ottwelve or fourteen inches;
so also on the floor of stage Office, kept by
Mr.. Brown, next door. Pavcments were
washed away, aud the site of the new Gen
era! Post-ohice was covered with water, SO
as to prevent the masons and bricklayers
from working on Thursday. The water
was pumped by suction engines. About
sixty or seventy feet of the embankment of
the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, opposite the
foundry near Georgetown, has given way.
We understand there was also heavy blow
at Hampton Roads, and it is feared much
damage has been done to shipping outside. 4"

STILL ANOTHER BRocKvILLE OUTRAGE.
AS the American steamboat st. Law
renee was passing down the River st. Law
renee on her regular trip on Sunday last,
she was hailed by British armed schooner
near Brockville, and ordered to hoist her CO.
Iors; but Capt. Evans not recognizing their
right to make such demand, took upon
himself the responsibility of dsregardng it.
I hree muskets were then fired upon her,
and cannon was got out for the purpose oi
being used; but before 1t could be made
ready, the st. Lawrence was out of reach,
The intelligence was brought to tins
place by Capt. Whitney. of the United
States, on Monday morning, when the Go,

ly despatched to investigate the matter.
The Oneida returned on Monday Evening,
from Kingston, where the officer in charge
saw Capt. Sandon, commander of her Ma
icsty's Naval forces on the Likes, who ex-
pressed much surprise and regret at the cir
cumsance, and said he would send immedi-
ately for the officer commanding the schoo.
ner, and investigate the subject, and make
such further explanations as the case would
admit of.
The causes Of such explanations are be-
coming quite too frequent. Do these people
pretend they did not know the character Of
the steamboat st. Lawrence!-or that they
had any right to order her when passing
down the regular channel, to show her col
ors? 1t seems to us that the "brauc and
gdllaaf' inhabitants of Brockvlle have a
grea. propensity for fghtng; and should
such lawess acts continue to be perpetra

necessity Of giving them an opportunity for

WATERspoUT.-We copied few days
ago from New York paper an account of a
waterspout which had been seen on the
Hudson river. We learn from the Evening
Post that it completely deluged with rain
the country between Stockbridge, and .Hud-
SON 1t took place about four o'clock p.
M, and became known to the passengers on
the Hudson and Berkshire railroad BY the
instantaneous appearance OF one otthe most
violent showers ever witnessed. In that
mountainous region the accumulated water
acquired an impetus which frequently had
avery grand g fleet by creltlng in a moment
cataracts Of various sizes from every peak
and cliff, which poured their united flood
over the plain in every direction.
: About quarter Of mile from Canaan,
the progress Of the cars was Immediately
arrested by an avalanche of sand which
was swept with resistless force across the
track fairly imbedding the engine, and oblit-
Grating all appearance of railroad.
1t was some hours after the stoppage be-
fore sufficient force could be mustered to
Dig out the engine and clear the track, so as
to enable the passengers to reach the viii
lage.
The bridge at Canaan was much damaged
and was ouly saved by barn, which though
always ogh and dry before, was swept away,
and in large fragments was foated against
the bridge, and formed with an angle of the
road sort of buttress, which strengthened
the structures sufficiently to resist the Hood.
The waters swept over it, and around it.,
destroyed the neighboring gardens and fields
and carried off the fences that lay in its
course. herairoad was extensively inju-
red,, the bridge and large portion of the
track having been swept away below Cana
an, and the track having been either de-
stroyed or extensively injured in exposed
situations along the whole range Of the
storm.--P0uison.

SUDDEN EFFECTS OF THE MIND UPON
THE BoD1.--i'ato used to say that all the
diseases Of the body proceed from the soul
says MIR. Weld in his famous report. The
expression of the Countenance is mind in
visible. Bad news weakens the acton Of
the heart, destroys the appetite, oppresses
the luugs, stops digestion, and partially sus-
pends all the functions Of the system. An
emotion of shame flushes the face, fear
blanches 1t, joy lIumnates; au instant thrill,
ecctrlties million of nerves. Surprise
spurs the pulse into galop. Dcllrum ina
fuses giant energy: volltlon commands, anu
hundreds of muscles spring to execute.
Powerful emotion often kills the body at a
single stroke. The news of defeat killed
