tells curious story, which we shall read at our

of entertainment. Go and see for yourself.

LIBEI.s AND LIBEL SulTs.-Mr Webb, of The
Courier and Enquirer, explained yesterday how it
happened that the extraordinary statements against
Messrs. Rust and Banks, were published in his pa
per-statements which seem to have originated BY
some mysterious process not yet developed. 1t az
pears that the publication was made during Mr.
Webb's absence, by some one in his office, who
has more vanity than discretion, and whose want
OF judgment Is only equalled by his want of com
mon sense, and it is not at ali unlikely that
II was the same individual who had the impotence,
under the sanction of his employers name, to prate
about falsehoods and lies in relation report of Mr.
Webster's great speech at the New England dinner,
which was copied by the Courier day or two at
ter it appeared in the Herald. The libel on Messrs
Rust and Banks and the Towards, was one of the
most atroclous things we have ever seen in the
way of libel. Nothing but the grossest stupidity,
or the most inveterae malice, could have prompted
its publication. We hope, however, that the mat
ter may be amicably settled, and that an ample
apology will be made for the imputations on the
character of gentlemen who are so far removed
from any suspicion of dishonorable conduct.
Setting aside the libel which Webb himself per-
petrated on Fennimore Cooper, he is probably in
the same predicament that we have been as the
manager of newspaper We do not recollect
single instance in which prosecution was brought
against this paper for libel, unless it in case
in which the article complained of was written by
ourself And we venture to say that most of the Ii
bells which appear in the newspapers, are written by
persons employed on them, who, without any desire
to bring their principals into difficulty, are yet not
sufficiently guarded in speaking of individual cha
racter. Indeed, the law of libel ought to be care
fully studied by all who write for the press. And
we trust that the project started last year with a
view to its revision by the legislature, will be re-
newed, for it is really wanted much.

numbered but few hundred voters, and their ef-
forts were subject of derison, in order that nu
clens might be formed, around which the friends
and converts to the cause might IN time rally.
AS to qualifications, his claims are equal to that
OF any other citizen. He Is man of talent and
education, and though modest and unassuming,

WATKINS IMPROVED

'6Ni Il undersigned announce to the public that
they can, in their opinion, supply Farmers
with the model of WHEAT-FAN combined
with SCREEN, that for UTILITY cannot he sur
passed; and for the invention of which they have
recently received Letters Patent.
The Improvement consists i'm the application
OF Horizontal extended Screen, which will
cleanse Wheat of cookie, cheat. &c., &C., as fast
and as perfectly as the best Revolving Mill
Screen. This Screen can, at a small expense,
be affixed TO any Fan in common use, and is sc
constructed that it can be attached 10, or removed
from the Fan at pleasure, without any inconven-
icnce.
We are confident in the opinion that the I'm
provement has only TO be known TO the public 10
come into general use.
The ATTENTION OF MANUFACTURERS
OF WHEAT-FAiIS is particularly invited Ia
this highly valuable Improvement; and they arc
informed that they can obtain, at moderate price,
a Right to manufacture to any extent tina,
may be agreed on, by application to either David
Watkins. OF BIidgewater, or John w. Lee OF
