Riot at Canton.

By the arrival ofthe Delhi AZ II. York
information has been received ola great
riot at Canton. We find the particulars
fully detailed in the Cincinnati Gazette
Of the goth instant.
A growing discomfort seems to exist
in the bosoms Of The Chinese people rel
alive to the result Of the late war with
Great Britain, and this is supposed to be
the exciting cause of the riot. The En-
glish and American factories were in
discriminatory burnt and RACED TO the
ground, the mob loading themselves
with plumber. The British and Ameri-
can sailors in the harbor however rail-
lied well armed and forced their way
through the mob, rescued the American
and British inmates of The factories who
had not previously escaped, and regain
ed much of their treasure; making a
safe retreat to their ships.
The government soldiers were CAL
led out 10 suppress the riot, but when or
dered to fire. fired in the air; when the
mob, finding the soldiery would not at
tack, drove them off and Pefted their
grea, Mandarin commanders with stones.
The engines were sent cut TO stop the
progress of the flames, but the mob pre-
vented their playing on the British or
American factories until they were en-
tireiy consumed.
When the Delhi sailed the govern
ment soldiers had possession Of the
Square, and two Of the rioters had been
executed, but renewal Of the riot was
expected. The people had petitioned
the Governor to be firm and they would
assist him in carrying on the war with
the British. Great anxiety was felt as
to the course Sir Henry Pottinger would
pursue in the present emergency.

The Drunkard,s bioodi

1t has often been doubted that the
drunkard's blood was infammable. DR.
E b. Yost, Of Massilon, Ohio in order
to test this principle, made the following
experiment, which is published under
his own signature in the Washington
an and Genius. An acquaintance of
The Doctor, who was drunkard of long
standing. called at his office while under
intoxication, and on entering cried out
"Docior, for Gods sake bleed me or
shall diet" The Doctor complied with
his request, and while the blood was
running, he discovered by the smell
that it was highly impregnated with al
cohol. In order 10 test the matter
more fully. he applied lighted taper
when the blood in the basin presented
the peculiar appearance of burning al
cohol.-T a=oo Banner
These cases are now attcsled by the

Gen. solomon van RENSSELAER,.

This veteran soldier and bosom friend
OF Gen. Harrison. who was appointed
Post Master at Albany by President Har-
rison as a means OF support in his de-
clining years, it will be recoilected by
our readers, has been lately dismissed
from office by that contemplate ACCT

Judge you, was the cause? lie was re

and 10 be an instrument to force the
other twenty three Post Masters in his
county to do the same! 1t was a work
he scorned with him who had the har-
dihood and insolence to propose it. He
treated the letter of requisition, coming
as he was aware, by consent and author
ity of the administration, though from
the editor, with contempt and loathing
but with silence. That letter, with
these facts, he has made pubic. Soon
after its reception he observed cor
respondence between John C. Spencer
and the present incumbent of the P. Of
fee, Mr.. WATSON, and was dismissed
without SO much as the pretext Of any
just cause, without having at any time
interfered with politics or the policy of
the Administrations without warning
or ceremony.
It was standing complaint with Gen.
Harrison, that many of the aged, woun-
ded and in6rm officers and soldiers OF
the revolutionary and late wars were
in necessitous circumstances and unpro-
vided for by the governdlent-he pro.

ny men in our midst into whose bosoms
such reflection will bring thrill Of
qualification, and in whose countenan-
ces you may read the smile of delight.
There are many other reflections
which might be made here and would
tend 10 show the causes as we'll as re-
suits Of decentralization in the country
az the mobocratic and revolutionary
movements, in various quarters, the sta
hstlcs OF crime, the influence Of leading
men and that Of our national councils,
the movements Of fanatics, threats Of
dlsunon, the ready rewards Of dema-
gognery in office seekers, abuse Of pat
ronagesln Office holders &C. &C.; but we
shall weary patience If we enter into
them.
DO you pronounce these evils RENE
dlIess and and ask why they are de-
nounced? We answer that if they are
ultimately remedless to the whole coun-
try palliative may be applied and their
force diminished. Even granting that
the destruction of our government, and
far worse, that of public virtue, was
settled grant the certainty, that in Janua
ry 1850, the people Of the United States
would proceed TO ex,remities, dissolve
the Union and drive the car of anarchy
like the ''three days" in Paris, still a
bare presentation of the causes al work
would be eminently useful. For ii is
admitted that if we are in danger it all
proceeds from ourselves, as a nation
we are safe if we stand uncorrupted,
and as individuals We shall be fortunate
if we stand so, either in the time when
evils are averted, or in the wreck & ruin
Of the national prosperity. If u ma
iority Of The citizens would be on the
alert 10 avoid and expose the corrupt
ing influences Of the age, this land would
be better protected than without that
vigilance by cannon enough 10 line the
the whole frontier, all the navies Of Eu-
rope, battlements solid enough to laugh
al an enemy's cannon and defy the artl-
cry Of heaven and an army strong as
Millions legions, stormlng the throne OF
the Almighty.
Undermining causes are now at work
and always will be, and we had rather
see man run, like a scared hind, from
call OF his country, than dclude others
with himself into security against his
and their OWE vices. Deluded with sha-
dows of seeming success and apparent
prosperity, and proud of the strength
of our Idol, Liberty, we may yet icurti
that its feet like those Of Nebuchadnez-
EARS image are part of iron and part
| of clay, and that the pedestal virtue, up
on which they stand is crumblng away.
Standing individually and collectively as
good sentinels firmly at our posts on the
right foot Of virtue and the left Of in
teIligence; our government may en-
dure the shocks of time, and our chill
dren's children enjoy the blessing Of
| ruling themselves we'll for many centu-
