The undersigned, as chairman of the
committee" appointed at the last annu.
al meeting of the National Medical As
sociation, held in Philadelphia in May
lS47, to make report to the next meet
ting. to be held in Baltimore in May, l648
"on all the important improvements in
obstetrc medicine effected in America
during the past year." begs leave most
respectfully to call the attention of the
profession Throughout the country to the
effects of chloroform in alIeviatng the
sufierings of childbirth, and TO request
that those gentleman who have tried or
may try this potent remedy would trans
nit to the subscriber, at Washington, a
brief but precise report of its effects in
their hands, that the facts thus collected
may be presented by the committee to
the Association at their next annual meet
! ing.
Chloroform has now been employed in
obstetric medicine in great number of
cases, by some of the most distinguished
practitioners in Edinburgh, London. Bos-
ton, and various other places, aud if the
current testimony Of these gentlemen
can be depended on, this agent, when
cautiously aud judiciously adminste ed,
is efectual in controlling the pains Of
this generally agonizing process of ma
ture, aud at the same time is perfectly
safe.
That the correctness of these views
may be tested by a still wider and ex
tcnsive experience, and the results be
placed before the profession in an author
tive and accessible form, is the object OF
the committee in asking these contribu-
tiOns.
All communications addressed to the
undersigned, and received before the
25th of AprilneXt, will be preserved and
duly noticed in the report.

" GEN. CAMERON AND THE TARIFF
The Danville Democrat, is wrong in suppo-
sing that Gen. Cameron has abandoned his
views on the tariff question, because he
occupied a seat in the Baltimore Conven-
ton, which passed resolutions lauding the
tariff of 1916. Gen. Cameron we know,
has not changed his opinions on that sub
iect. 1t does not follow that a member
in holding a seat must necessarily conform
to all that is done in convention. or adopt
the opinions Of the majority. There was a
considerable difference of opinion on that,
as we'll as on the subject of slavery, in the
convention. And friend Cook knows full
well, how much greater this difference OF
opinion, upon the same subjects, existed in
the late Wing Convention.

The New Orleans Telegraph Line via the AIissis.

Dispatches by lightning from Memphis,
received to-day, show that the New Orleans
Telegraph is working successfully to that pon,
on the Mississippi. The line runs from
Louisville, via Nashville, to Tuscumbia, Ala
bama and Columbus, in Mississippi, on its
route to Memphis The remainder of the
line to New Orleans has all the posts up, and
will soon be in full operation to the Crescent
city. The line now working from Philadelphia
to Memphis is about thirteen hundred miles
long, and is part of the "Atlantic, Lake and
Mississippi Lines" constructed by Henry
O'Reilly. This New Orleans line is worked
by the new Columbia Telegraph, invented
by zook & Barnes, From Memphis to New
Orleans dispatches are at present forwarded
by steamboats--thus shortening the commu-
cation between New Orleans and the north.

u TIE WEATHER. state of the
weather is alwaysa ready topic of CONVEX
sation, though often, apparently, without
interest. Yet there is nothing IN which our
happiness is more closely Connected
There can be no doubt, but that the wealth.
er affects the temperament and condition
of the mind, as well as the body. Cold,
cherries and gloomy weather, produces
like effects upon the system. Variety, even
in weather, is necessary to enable us prop
erly TO appreciate its blessings. Eternal
sunshine and cloudless sky, would soon
bring about ennui. We would soon have
enough, even to safety. But We find that
we are writing chapter on the weather,
which we did not intend, but merely to
say, that on Monday and Tuesday last, we
enjoyed the comforts of coal fire with a.
much zest as during the holidays.

THE COLUMBIA DEMOCRAT.

Th6 CO6UmHiA DAMOCAAT.
The valiant Colonel of the Bloomsburg
Democrat, has taken into high dudgeon the
castigstion we gave him few weeks since,
and rails At W in his last paper, with all
the eloquence and fror Of a 1ish-woman,
although, we regret to say, with good
deal less honesty. No one can doubt the
paternity Of the article. II isa much like
Col. Tate himself, as two peas, and If it
should lack the chaste and easy style of
Addison and Irving, it should be remem-
bered that military men cannot be expected
to devote much time and attention, to such
small matters as correctness of style, or a
proper construction OF sentences. Even
Gen. Jackson himself sometimes failed in
this. But then the General would have
disdained uttering falschood, however
great the provocation. But, alas for poor
human nature. the gallant colonel falls far
behind the old Hero, in this respect [!
The colonel in his frenzy, charges us with
having DETAINED the character of James
X. Polk and Governor Skunk. This, no
doubt, was intended as bit of original nems,
manufactured specially for the Democrat,
in advance ofthe Telegraph. Our readers,
certainly never yet made the discovery that
we DETAINED either friend or foe. The
colonel is decidedly wrong in imagening
that an editor cannot be consistent demo-
crat, without defaming the character OF
his opponents. Even at this late day it
would be we'll for him to retrace his steps,
and if he should make an effort even to
"pretend TO be decent" it would be deci-
ded improvement.

THE NEWS BY THE ACADIA.

The news which the Acadia brings shows
continuation Of war and political insurrec'
ton France, in spite of the gloomy forebo
dings of the English press, is steadily pursu'
ing its course, and endeavoring to mould the
Republic in form which will give ii strength
and durability, There are, of course, many
difficulties lying in the way. Such change
as has occurred can scarcely happen in a day
and every thing be expected to move imme,
diately with the order and regularity of long
established usage. Conservatism is at wal
with ultratism, and, as in all revolution, the
latter will probably have the advantage, fol
where great changes are to be produced, the
former is too cautions, too fearful, perform.
too little when so much is expected, ever Il
be able to retain popularity. ... ...
In Ireland the excitement still continues
and it will in no wise be abated by the con
viction of Mitchell of sedition; In England

by the House of Lords. In Austria there ha,

~ We have few subscribers who have
probably never been struck with the thought
that they ought, in justice to us as we'll as
themselves, contribute, at least something,
for the paper which they have been recei-
wing for some years, without paying us a
penny. We leave it for them to say, if it
is not bad policy, on their part, to treat
printers so shabbily. Such as those who
have not paid us anything, or do not in
tend to, unless they please, must not be sur
prised, if we should cut off their supplies,
as our paper is rather too expensive since
its enlargement, to give away .tree,gratis

Col. Gilpin had encountered large party

nuous resistance until the Americans charged
upon them, when they precipitately fed,
leaving many of their number dead upon the
field, and the great portion of their stock in
the hands of the Americans killed. and very
few wounded. Col. Gilpn was still on the
trail of the Indians, and, it was thought,
would soon whip them into terms.
All was quiet at Santa Fe; but on the
