Affairs at Wnshington n

We congratulate the Country on the decisive
vote by which the LAND DISTRIBUTORS was on
Tuesday SUSTAINED in the Senate: 26 to % a
clear majority of the whole Senate on the right
side, and both absentees Wings, who did not
wish the Distribution defeated. So it is settled
that the Tariff passes the Senate substantially, and
we trust exactly, as it passed the House.
And now mark the course which is taken on
this important subject in and out of Congress-
The Loco-Focos every where proclaim that the
bill will certainly be vetoed by President Tyler,
and they abuse the Wings for protracting the Ses-
sion Of Congress. But who is protracting it 2
Who wastes days and weeks in pressing amend
ments which they know cannot be carried, to bill
which they say cannot ut any rate become law?
Who persists in wearing cut day after day "A this
proftless manner, and, after the Senate has decd-
ed to pass the bill as it is, demands an adjourn
ment in order TO prepare and offer several ham
dred' more amendments We entreat the Coun-
try to MARK THE MEN who thus faciiously obstruct
the progress of business, increase the expense
of the Session, and prolong the distresses of the

How TO CURE The BITE OF RATTLE
sEAKE.-As this is the season OF the year whea
accidents frequently happen from the bite of Rat.
tlesnakes and other yenomous serpenIs. ii may not
be arliss ts offer 2 few remarks in rd 10 the
cure eff them.
In the first place-when person i. bitten, a
crucial incision should be made with some sharp
instrument the vound, and the POISON shonId
be Withdrawn by applying the mouth to the wound
This may be done with safety, for the poison onl4
acts By absorption. In the next place an alkali
should be applied. Ammonia or Hartshorn is
the best, and if this is not AZ hand strong solu-
ton of Potash or Saleratus shonld be applied,
keeping the wound constantly wet with it.
The virus or poison appears 10 be acid, and is
decomposed by alkali. This should be applied
as soon as possible; in order that the poison NAV
be decomposed before being absorbed
Ammonia should also be taken internally. IN
dsses Of Ten drops Of the Aqua Ammonia or spir-
IT'S OF Hartshorn, IN water, or from ten 10 twenty
grains of the Carbonate, Salts of Hartshern dis
solved in water.
If this mode of treatment should be irnmedi.
ately put in practice, in every instance, very few
deaths would ensue, and in NEST cases but little
inconvenience wond result from snake bites
Medical aid should be procured Us soon as pos
u,
should the cure be delayed if medical aid is nos
al ihana for time in su ha case IS ever. thing.
Any person can perio1m the clre by merely suck
ing the princips! part of the poison froa, the
wound, and neutralix;ns shat may remain by means
of alkalis.
Sweet oil has been recommended as an efec,ual
remedy, to be applied To TIE wound and ,aken in
terneily but It's effects are doubtful. 1t MAJ be

Clay,s Speeches.

.
Mr.. j. B. Swain has published No. 4. OF ms
serial edition of THE LIFE AND SPEECHES OF
Henry CLAY containing a brief Introduction,
with the early Speeches of Mr.. c. 'On the Line
of the Perdido, 181O On Aiming for War with
England, 1911; On the New Array Bill 1873,
and .On the Increase of the Navy, Gn part.)
Each is prefacea with brief note explaining the
questions presented and the circumstances under
which it was delivered. The number contains as
large and fair octave pages, and Is sold at la
cents so that all the Speeches OF MIR. Clay, with
an original Life and annotations, hte'like For
trait and two steel engravings of his Birthplace,
Hanover, Va and his present residence, Ashland,
Ky viii be completed in about 500 to 600 pages,
forming tive ample octavos, and costing its SUBJ
scribers at most $2t. presume this work will
be eagerly sought and widely circulated by the
many admirers and friends Of Henry Clay, of the
Republican policy, and the great measures wilh
which he has been identified, and we are confident
that nothing can be better calculated to dispel the
unjust prejudces and refute the grcundless calum
nies TO which he has SO long been subjected.
Mr. D. Mallory is preparing more superb and
costly edition Of Mr.. Clay's Life and Speeches,
which will also be published in this City. We
see no reason for rivalry or jealousy between the
two. There srr very many whoa, she difference
in cost is no object, while splentor is, and who will
no, be bothered with work in numbers; these will
prefer MIR. Mallo1y's: While there are thousands
who canno, well pay S. even for work they prize
so highly, and who viii prefer the Speeches in num-
bers, 80 as TO resd them they fall from the press
these will take Mr.. Swaias, and would not buy the
other. We bespeak for each generous patronage,
and doubt not i, will be heartily accorded.
