The northern tribune. [volume] (Bath, Me.) 1847-1855, 1847-12-18

New York papers give the following particu-
lars of the melancholy death of DIR Vain
wright from the bite of snake -
On Thursday afternoon DIR w. received from
a brother-in- law in Alabama, through one OF
our packets, a number of rare plants, &C., the
productions of that section of the Union-and,
probably, for the purpose of furnishing a
subject for more scientific experiments, a
rattlesnake. six feet long, was contained in
the invoice. Y.#r H#U
The reptile was securely boxed but it
seems that DIR w. for the purpose of exhibit
ting it to some friends in the evening, took
the box to the Broadway House, corner of
Grand and Broadway, where, knocking OIL the
top, the snake was let loose upon TIE bar
room floor. Throwing itself into coil, the
dangerous creature Immediately commenced
that low hum or species of ringing, lnot the
rattle,) which is peculiar to the species, and
seemed inclined to remain quiet; probably
the change of climate produced sort OF
torpor, and it was repeatedly leased with
stick, without betraying much viciousness.-
Indeed, one gentleman ventured so far as to
The northern tribune. [volume] (Bath, Me.) 1847-1855, 1847-12-18

raise it with the toe of his boot, escaping
unscathed.
After being exposed some twenty minutes
to The gaze of those present, DR. Wainwright
attempted to return the snake to the box, and
for that purpose inconsiderately seized the
venomous thing with his naked hand when,
in an instant, with only the slightest pre-
monitory rattle, the reptile iaised his head,
threw back his upper jaw. and struck-the
fangs entering between the fingers, and fasten-
ing on the inside of the ring-fnger of the
right hand Immediate measures were taken
to prevent the spread of the poison through
the system. The flesh in the neighborhood
of the wounded part was cut out, and DR.
Wainwright removed to his house in Crosby
street, where other medical and surgical aid
was called, without delay, and in a few
minutes the room was filled with his profess
| sional friends, among whom were Drs Whit
taker, Parker and Caldwell, of the institute.
Energetic means were made use of to coun.
teract the effect of the venom, but unaccount-
ably, all known remedies seemed to be of no
avail, and the entire arm commenced swelling
most fearfully. AT this juncture we are in
formed that DR. Wainwright, with much pres
ence OF mind, begged to have an amputation
of the whole arm performed but, after con-
sultation, this course was deemed unadvisable,
and the victim, enduring the most excruciating
agony, continued to sink, and finally expired
at half an hour after midnight-the lamp of
life going out at last quietly, and with, APP
parently, no struggle.
The unhappy man seemed to possess his
full faculties almost to the last moment, and
was perfectly aware of the fate to which he
was inevitably fastening. Some fifteen min
utes before his decease, turning to friend
who was supporting him, 81 this is horrible %
said he, as he felt the extreme pain leaving
his hand, and the sensation of ease slowly
creeping up the arm from the seat of the
wound" this is horrible Ito know that
death is gradually feeling his way to my ytals
that arm is dead already! and placing
the uninj ured hand over his heart" the
destroyer will soon be here p This acute
knowledge of his sure dissolution, which, as a
medical man he must have possessed, could
have been nought else than truly fearful
The body after death presented the usual ap-
pearences of decease from the bite of those
hideous reptiles, it being frightfully swollen
and mortified.

Correspondence of the Northern Tribune.

##r BosToN, Dec. 4, 1847.
Mr.. ED1ToR:-For want of more profitable
method to secure sufficiency of bodily exer-
else, frequently perambulate the city and SUI
burbs, and regale my outer senses with fresh
breezes and pleasing views of town and coun-
try, while the inner man is gra,ifed in rumi-
mating upon the past, present and future, as
the view of various interesting spots impress
the mind.
In the dearth Of "News," therefore, will
expend little "pen, ink and paper" in occa-
sionally delineating some of my
Walks about Town.
To one who has traversed but limited por-
ton of the city, he will be somewhat surpris-
ed to find its limits so extensive as they really
are, if indeed there are any limits to Boston.
To-day what is mere marsh, or waste ground,
or sheet of water, a year hence is found to
be covered with blocks of elegant buildings,
with streets, lanes and courts. A panoramic
view from the dome of the State House, the
summit Of the Bunker Hill Monument, or any
other eminence, will look down upon city
that seems to be huddled into comparative
small space for so important city as Boston,
yet if all the houses which are occupied by
business people of the city, and are located all
around Boston, within the distance of fifty
miles, and which go to build up many pretty
villages, were mousd into the limits of the city
proper where would sufficient room be found
to contain them
| Another circumstance which contributes to
impress upon the stranger the want OF vast
ness to the city, is the irregnlarity OF the
streets, which precludes him from. seeing at
one glance, excepting from very few points,
but few rods in any one dmectioa, while it
he were permitted to view street in its whole
length, until the vision is nearly Lost in the
distance, as, for instance, Harrisom Avenue,
the idea of magnitude is impressed upon the
mind and the Imagination loves co revel in
the picturing of the real or supposed greatness
of the whole place. ,....a.a aAea-v

Eyading Inv.

The Legislature of Maine recently pass
ed law requiring that the compositions
aud the proportion of each article OF the
composition of every patient incidence
offered for sale, shall be print ed on label
and pasted on the bottle, package, &C.,
containing it. Whereupon the proprietor
of a certain patient medicine had the
composition, proportions, &C., of each
article IN the compound translated into
Chinese, and in that language the requir.
ed labels are printed. He maintains that
he thus complies with the act-because
the law does not define the language ofthe
labels. We apprehend, however, that
this excuse would not avail him before a
court aud jury.

A PrOpOsitious

Sunndry Of the citizens of New York
have petitioned Congress that the Presi-
dent Of the United States "be authorized
and requested to permit and cause any
and all, or SO many OF the public ships and
vessels Of the United Stases as may not be
employed in the public service, TO be EN-.
ployed in Transporting such Grain, Flour
AM, other Provisions, TO the furnishing
people of Ireland, as may be contributed
by public bodies, or By individual citizens
or inhabitants of the United States"
The principal reason given for this re-
quest, is the enormous price TO which
freight has riseu-from for,y.fve to sixty
two cents per bushels, which is double the
price of Indian corn in parts of the ooun-
try.
We like the idea that some one has pro.
posed. of employing the monster ship
PennsylSania, upon this errand Of beney'
lencs.

bold trumpet of Democracy is again sounding
it's familiar and praise worthy notes, in behalf
of the people and peoples rights, which for
q long time have been neglected and tram

ruption managed to get the power in our
Ligisture. The editor (Col. s. MRpARrl as
Democrat, able writer and conductor of a
Journal, Is altogether too well established to
require word of praise from us. His pen
has too long been the chasteHing rod Of the

to be injured by the foul ISLANDERS Of any en-
emy. Read the prospectus in to-days paper,

THE DEMOCRATIC PIONEER.

1t is nearly one year and half since we
commenced the publication of this paper, un-
der no very flattering circumstances, but with
an expectation that our friends would make
some exertions in our behalf, and some few
did SO and have our thanks for it. But nearly
all are apprised Of the fact that much has
been left undone which might and would be
accomplished if our friends would only exert
themselves. We have been and are still of
opinion that FIVE HUNDRED GOOD
SUBSCRIBERS could be raised by little
exertion being made. We call upon each
and every true friend to Democracy, in this
county, to try and obtain ONE GOOD sub
scriber to the Pioneer. Our advertising list
as well as our subscription is small, and our
expense very heavy, so that you must know
that il has been witt the utmost perseverance
and difficulty that we have got along thus far.
We have always attempted TO render our
paper interesting and worthy support, and if
we have failed to do so, it has not been be-
cause the attempt was not made. For few
times our paper was filled with the delinquent
land list but such was necessary. During
that time, we were satisfied that it was not
interesting and did not satisfy many. But
since then the latest and most intelligent news
has been or tried to be selected and sent out
with all possible dispatch, SO that our paper
might give general satisfaction, and how far
our aim has been accomplished we leave our
subscribers to answer.
If our conduct and paper is such as to merit
a generous support, let our friends show their
liberality by aiding us to increase our cub
scription list; if not, then all we ask is an
immediate payment Of all arrearages, SO that
we may be enabled to seek other quarters
While we remain here, our endeavors will be
to print paper that will meet with general
appreciation if not support. But it is an esta-
bished fact, that while laboring under pc
cuniary difficulties, that no man can proceed
with the energy that he otherwise could.
Let each person interested in their county
paper, take hold and get one or more subscri
bers, and they shall be remembered by the
printer, who may at some future period be
able to return good act.

From the N. o. Picayune, Feb. Is.
Later from Vera CurZ.

BY the arrival of the bark St. Mary, from
Havana, we are placed in possession of the
advices by the British steamer from Mexico
Our letters and portion of our papers have
also come to hand. The Medway arrived al
Havana on the morning Of the 9th inst. from
Vera Cruz, with dates from that city to the
evening OF lst instant, and from the city Of
Mexico to the 10Th of January. The Med
way brought over 100000 in specie and
fifty-two passengers.
The rumor of the assassination of Santa
Anna turn out to be unfounded; so also of
his active opposition to the seizure of church
property. At last accounts he was still at
San Luis Potos Vera Cruz papers of the
2Sth ult. announce that letters from San Luis
speak of his immediate departure for Tula.
Letters from the city of Mexico are to the
same effect, and represent that he would move
at the head of the main body of the forces.
Letters on which we rely confidently say that
his whole strength does not exceed $4,000
men of all arms. They are represented to be
in deplorable condition for want of means.
They are destitute of clothing and provisions,
and one regiment had actually left for the
city of Mexico. Santa Anna employs his
time in gambling and cock fighting and writ
ing menacing and energetic Representations
to Congress for money. We even have as
surances that he quite recently won $4,000
at monte from his own officers, very many Of
whom are very young men.
General la Vega has been appointed COM
mandant general of Vera Cruz. Letters of
the Goth ut. from Mexico mention this fact.
and there can be no doubt of it. He will be
fortunate if he has not an early opportunity
of revisiting the United States in his former
capacity.
Our private accounts, from most RESPONSE
BILE sources, set down the number of troops in
the city of Vera Cruz at 35O0-some say
5000. The garrison of San Juan dc Ulloa
does not exceed 100 troops.
The Mexicans appear to be particularly
well informed of the movements and positions
of our troops. They give, from time to time,
the forces at Tampico, Saltillo and Victoria
and other places. Every where they see our
arms advancing, and, to the CONSERVATION of
all parties, sweeping all before them. This
occasions much speculation in Mexico, as may
we'll be imagined, as to the final issue. Let.
tiers from Havana express the belief, founded
upon information from high quarters in Mex
ico, that their Government will very soon en-
ter into negotiations for peace, from total ina
oility to subsist and protract the struggle.

From the Rough and Ready.
who commenced the war?

Who commenced tne war!
We have already alluded to the fact that
Congress, by n nearly unanimous vote
declared that MEXICO MADE THE WAR
The words Of the preamble to the bill
passed ON the 18th of May last, authoriz.
ing the President to accept the services
of fifty thousand volunteers, and provid-
ing for loan of ten million of dollars, are
as follows
"Whereas, BY THE ACT OF THE RrPuBLic
OF Mexico, a state Of aOar erists between
that government and the United States"
This declaration passed the Senate with
but too voices in the negative, and it
passed the House with every vote in the
Affirmative But fourteen. This would seem
to be pretty conclusive evidence that
Mexico COMMENCED THE WAR. But not>
withstanding this, the Mexican advocates
and allies in this country, still keep up
their special pleading in favor ofthere side,
and readily resort to any sophistry and
falsehood TO make their own country out
in the wrong. They endeavor to make
it appear that the movement Of the army
from Corpus Christi to the Rio Grande,,
as a hostile act on the part Of the Bnited
States, and that that was the commence
ment of the war. But there happens to be
another fact which dispels at once this
argument of the Mexican allies, and that
is, that the .Herican President declared ,oar
against the United States before the move.
ment Of our army front Corpus Chriai.-
These are the facts, briefly stated by the
Hartford Times
"Mexico, by proclamation, signed by
her dictator, Parades, DECLARED WAR

Congress or the President, acknowledged

cute his orders, in doing which he caused

Grande t. subdue the State ofTexas."
These FACTS must satisfy every man who
possesses an american heart, that MExi-
co COMMENCED THE WAR, and that the war
ON our part was one of self-defence. The
man who would ende eavor to falsvy history
