SCIENTIFIC AND .usroRIo.I ,rcrrnrs

Subsequently, TO the hour o, which we write this,
the learned DR. L,rdner will have delivered the first
Of series OF lectures on the most striking and
curious parts of Natural Science and History which
general renowu alleges to be highly Instructive as
well as interesting, and which he illustrates very
beautifully, by the aid of Illuminated pictures,
plans and diagrams, managed by every ingenious
application of light, and masnihed by glasses, so
tina. every optical help is enlisted to assist the
ceplon of the audience and to give them pleasure.
Many of these are combinations of Art and Science,
in themselves agreeable as they are ye, novel in
this country generally.
As man OF Science, the lecturer is too we'll
known 10 all the well.nformed, as having long oc-
cupisd high rank in the European world, to make
it necessary tina, we should say any thing. Nor
are his nttainmenis undistnguished in General Lii
terature as well as Positive Science.
Capibe, as he PROFESSIONALLY is, Of no. merely
amusing the eyes, like the iiinerant mountebanks
Of knowledge, of whom we see too many, but Of
giving high and rational pleasure to the well-in
formed, and all who anxious to become SO, we
hope to see the Doctors exhibitions numerously
atleaded; and that at least many will resort TO
them as erewhe ran after prousttes and fandansos.
J Heads, this time, VIII receive much honour as
heels not long ago, we trust.

Now. what the opinions thus disclosed really

EIir.e,Of. Letter from Buckingham.

You have heard good deal about the hard times
10 this County. Well, the times hard, that is
certain, and many good folks are greatly embarrass-
ed. But VIVA; OF that7 IL is oil the result Of the
glorious hard-money eXpsrimeni-M Yaneey
and Captain Booker and the Messieurs Hubards-
the heart and soul Of the Democracy have plenty Of
money, and while their iobs full, what does il
matter who are s.srving7 These are the Democrat
c Chiefs. and IL they have 10 rejoice, the fol-
lowers should be content They we're very rich
some years ago, but they are douby rich now -
They can buy half the poor men in the county out
Of house and home-which in itself is very right ard
proper. Every thing righlfuly belongs to them, &C.
cordng to the mos. approved hard-money doctrines
and poor people have no business with property.
They dom, know how TO mansge it; and four great
proprelors, 1--WE, at most, enough for any one
county. The -four above mentioned rich Demo
cratic Swe.heads can take better care of every
thing in Buckingham, than the poor and ignorant
folks
BY the way, | heard the other day tina, the Old
Wheel Horse came up the river from Richmond,
last week, with $4,000. I, is probe BILE, a, the
times will be tight at Court, that he and his Demo-
cratic associates, the Messieurs BubaTds and the
aforesaid hArd.money man" ore making prepara
tons 10 relieve the dear Democracy. II is supposed
that they greatly rejoice at the opportunity thus At
forded Of proving their practical devotion to the dear
people. They will puy CT al the executions now
pending, and save from the hammer the 100 regroes
advertised for sale by the Sheriff. And then they
will, as they may very justly do, cite their conduct
in proof Of the eIesence ofthe hard money sys-
TEN, which, while it bsggArs the mass, mikes a few
rich enough to supper, them.
Z But whether or not these amiatle gentlemen ca,.
~ oUt their benevolent designs, and ssburse amor
I the suffering masses portion Of their redundant
wealth; have faith, thu. the people Of Buckingham
can and will work out their own salvation. Much
of.ihe tlsmor about the indebtedness Of the eoun-
try has been prompted by desire to put these ar
den, lovers Of The poor man 10 the test. They were
very lavish Of their professions Of affection for the
poor particularly when candidates for popular "a .
vor-they will no, fail to make good their profess
ions, when the last and the last bed are brought
10 the hammer, under the operation Of their favorit,
hafd'money system. If,hsy toe the mark, Their,
will Of course be no need Of Say Law here; anc
Il they 10 not, the sober 'seond thoughts ofIhs peo
pie will lead them to work out Their own deliver
anoe. There will be some comfort in the affection
that at the time Of their utmost need, they save,
themselves without ,he assistance Of THOSE, who vsu
very profUse Of good wishes and loud promises II
times Of prosperity.
P.s.-From VIVA, I've just heard, think yo
may ssy for certainly, that the people will be re
lisvsd, at Court, Of oil their difficulties by these fou
dear friends Of the poor people.

The market here has opened at Sl,25 for prime
corn fed hogs delivered on foot, and this may be
regarded az the established rate, being equivalent
to LOS nett. We hear Of contracts for 5000 TO
1000 hogs at this rate. The sams price prevails

Some of our packers design preparing their pork for
tho English market, but ns;withsian ding the mit-
cation Of the British tariff, they OF the opinion
that the margin los profit IS narrow TO admit Of
paying higher price here than we have named
above. The additional expense Of packing for the
English market is estimated at 81 per barrel which
makes the cost equal TO $500 &C, rs per Dbl.
here. The English duty is 50 60 per bbl. and the
freight, charge SC, $3.50 $500 m king the pork
