papers for such voyages, securing tie pri-
vileges and rights of registered vessels,
ana the privileges and exemptions of ves-
sc!s enrolled and licensed for the fisheries;
and all vessels which have been enrolled
and licenced like voyages shall have the
same privileges and measure of protec-
tion as if they had sailed with registers

EROI ST. AUGUSTINE.

By the Steamer tSautherncr, Capt. BupD,
we have received st. Augustine papers to
the 10Th inst. from which VIC copy the fol.
lowing itcms:-
ST.. AUGUSTINE, April 10.
The TTar.-The late long talked Of en-
pedition has been up TO Oclawaha, and
again returned to quarters. Among its
results accomplished, have been the kill
ing of two Indians, the capture of six or
seven ponies and horses, The wounding
and capture Of another Indian, and des-
,ruclion of several spots of planting, in
high cultivation. Those are nnimportant
events, to be effected by so large Il force
as was employed, and offer no particular
reason for any interchange Of complaint
1t has, however, demonstrated a few
things which, until lately, have been with
ont solution, although past experience had
fully established the correctness Of its data.
We allude to the fact, that Indians can be
found when they are hunted for. 1t has
shewn that reliance ON dogs is not essen
tial to the discovery Of the abiding places
of the enemy-for the dogs, in this expe-
tition, gave no evidence of scent, and
destroyed all anticipations cf their useful
ness. II established the fidelity Of the In
dian Billy, who, though closely confined
at Black Creek ever since his capture,
on tbs occasion behaved 50 as = '.cso.Yc
the commentator Of the whites, and
whose future services might, if properly
used, be eminently valuable in pointing
out locations now had by the enemy.
This expedition consisted of nearly 800
mcn-a large portion Of them mourted.
Major Childs, and Lieut.. Tompkins, OF
the Artillery, arrived in the steamer VIM
CASTOR from the Southern posts. The
garrisons are all in good health. The
long drought, it is feared, may operate
against the examination of Pal haiokee,

ment sent to China, both in its Naval and
Military branches, and the difficulty found
in preserving al their par value the British
Government Securities, are not symptoms
of hostility with friendly power of which
the termination cannot be- seen. Tint the
people of England you'd sustain the Gov
ernment under any imaginable pressure,
the point of national honour being invol-
we'd, no one can for a moment entertain a
doubt. The monied men Of the London
Stock Exchange would, in such contin.
gency, pour out their treasure in loans TO
any amount, and the people would submit
TO the heaviest burhcns of taxation. But
there is, fortunately, no sign that the pre-
sent dispute will assume any such shape.
The two governments are anxious for pa
cic settlement, and the people of Maine,
supposiug them ever 50 inclined to push
matters to cxtremi,ics, know full! well that
without the aid and countenance OF her
powerful sister State, Massachusetts,, who
has plainly limited HAT the matter should
be left in the hands Of the General Gov
ernment for adjustment, her efforts would
be uaavailing to obtain her ends by force.

Don't sleep avith your Grandmother.--.
Transferring IF rital poacer.---A not un.
common cause of the loss Of vital powers
is the young sleeping with the ged.-
The fact, however, explained, has long
been remarked, and it is well known to
every unprejudiced observer. But it has
been most unaccountably overlooked in
medicine. Ihave, on several occasions,
met with the counterpart of the following
case:-I was few years since consulted
about pale, sickly, and thin boy, of
about 5 or 6 years. He appeared to have
no specific ailmcnt, but there was slow
and remarkable decline of flesh and
strength, and of the energy Of all the
functions, which his mother very aptlv
termed a gradual blight. After inquiring
into the history Of the case, it came out
that he had been robust and plelhoric
child u2 to his third year, when his grand.
mother, very aged person, took him to
sleep with her; that he soon afterwards lost
his good looks and he had continued to
decline ever since, notwithstanding medi-
cal treatment. directed him to sleep
apart from the aged parent, and prescribed
change of air, &c.-The recovery was
rapid. 1t is not with children only that
debility is induced by this mode of abstract.
ing vital power. Those in good health
should never sleep with sickly persons.

The Belgian Giant..-One of the great
est curiosilies that has recently come to
these shores, is the Giant, who is now as
tonishing the natives in the city of Goth
am, (playing Goliah at the Bowery,) He
is more than eight feet in height, well
made, without the least apparent defect
of person. His countenance is handsome,
we'll garnished with mustachiOs and luxu-
riors whiskers. His manner is dignifed,
and his attitudes are formed on classic mo-
dels. He is a Belgian by birth, fine
specimen of humanity, and is Us tall and
more civilized than any production of the
same size that has yet ventured to these
shores. He travelled in his own carriage
in France, as no Diligence is elevated
enough to do justice to his limbs: he is
also fond of walking, and often astonished
the passengers by descending from his
vehicle, and siriding along the roads as if a
wind mill had stripped off neighbouring
elevation, or as if the steeple of one vii
lagc was going to pay visit to the spire
of the next town. The Giant is in his
his 25tl year, and if he has not yet done
growing, we may expect to find him in
the course Of the, next summer adding
another foot to his present height. lie
says he is content, and hopes that Dame
Nature will leave him at ease in his pre-.
sent high position.---PAu. Saturday Cou-
ricr.
