FIRE ANNIHILAToR COMPANY.

Some citizens of the United States OF high stand
ing having, after negotiations during the summer,
obtained from the patentees in England the right OF
fabricatng and vending PHILLIPs's celebrated fire
a,anhilator, they have, in conjunction with other
respectable gentlemen here, formed an association
for carrying into effect, in the most vigorous and
extensive manner, their laudable and interesting
object The members Of the company have been
in conference in this city several days past, and the
result Of their meeting, we understand, has been
the appointment Of the Hon. ELISHA WHITTLEsEY
as President of the Company, and P. t. BARSuM,
Esq.,, Of worldwide celebrity, as General Mana
ger and Secretary. Such an organization gives to
the public every guarantee Of good faith. The
universal respect in which Mr.. WHITTLEsEY is
held throughout our country, and his known pro-
bty and talents, will command confidence in every
purpose to which he gives the sanction Of his name
and connection. As for Mr.. BARNUM-the least vi
sionary and the most PRACTICAL sagacious, and ener-
getic of all the sons Of Yankeedom, which is as
much as to say Of " all the world and the res, Of
mankind he takes in hand is bound to
succeed.
The Company have already entered on measures
for the fabrication of annihilators fast posi-
bic, until they shall be commensurate with the de.
mands OF the country, and that we presume will
be every house throughout the land worth saving
from the flames.

EDITORS CORRESPONDENCE.

BALTIMORE, SEPT. SIS p. M.
sent you this morning brief despatch from
New Orleans, announcing the arrival there of the
Cherokee, with intelligence that LorEz and his
command had been captured by the Spanish autho-
rites and put to DEATH have, up to this writing,
received nothing further. My impression is that
the despatch is true. Probabilities are all in its
favor. If this be SO, it is nothing more than what
might have been expected. Never have men been
SO deceived as were those who joined the standard
Of Lopez. They run madly, wildly into the very
jaws of death.
The Wings Of our city held meetings last night
in all the wards, and elected delegates to Com
vention to nominate Judges, Clerks of the Courts,
Sherifs, and other officers under the new Const-
tuition. There seems to be determination to rom--
nate straightout Wing ticket.
regret to perceive that THos. F. Bowie has announced
himself independent Wing candidate for Congress- in
the first district, in opposition r. BowIE, the regular
nominee. Unless the difficulty healed Democrat may
alp in between the two.

ExEcuTIos.-George Pharaoh was executed at West
Chester Pa Friday for the murder Of Rachel Shapless
committed on the 2Sh Of September last The crime was
pepetrated BY Pharaoh shooting her dead with gum while
she was unlocking the school house door at West Goshen
Chester county she being teacher there. Pharaoh was
pected Of the crme from having been seen in the vicinity with
his gun, and this suspicion rendered certainty by ind
ing that the wadding used the occasion matched torn
copy Of the Saturday Evening Post which was found in bis
possession when arrested.

We are in receipt of the Frontier Guardian Of

infallibe prophet Elder ORsoN HYDE, and, as usual,
filed with novel, amusing, and very readable mat
ter relating to the prospects and progress of the
new sanctity. good portion Of the paper is taken
up with an elaborate essay in support of the pro-
position that Mormonism is utterly distinct from
Mesmerism, and performs cures not by any physi-
cal process, but miraculously. The following de-
scription Of the Mennonite miraculous healing
power will be read with some curiosity
total blindness is cured, and that suddenly deafness and
dumbness Of many years. duration cured
