accommodate the immense crowd at the
London Fair with ''lodgings' who are
barred out from feather beds in snug
inns, that the River Thames be covered
with RATS, on which lodging rooms or
stalls shall be constructed and let out at
a cheap rale. Another expedition is to
erect ''bridges" at the crossings above

Was WASHINGTON BoRNIN ENGLAND !
The Boston Transcript publishes an
extract from a letter dated lsleworth,
Middlesex, England, February 25th,
1851, and addressed TO George Harvey,
Esq, Winthrop House, Boston.-Mr.
Field has in his possession an original
portrait of Washington's mother, which
he wishes to present to our government.
Mr.. Field is IS years old, and gentle
man in every way to be relied on. He
raises the question of Washington's ma
tive land, by the following paragraph:
at happened when was boy, that
being in the neighborhood Of Cookham,
Berkshire, with an uncle Of mine, he
pointed to pretty country cottage i'll
which the parents of General Washing
ton resided, and from whence they re-
moved to America. Our road led to a
green or common, where there resided a
Mrs. Ann Morcr, whose maiden name
was, believe, Taylor, who there showed
me the portrait of Mrs. Washington, and
other reliques of the family, given to her
when they quilted the place for Ameri-
ca, to which country her aunt AMI moth
err, she told me, took their son, Geo.

MONUMENT TO JOHN S. SINNER
The services rendered to the State of
Maryland by this pioneer of Agricultu-
raj improvements, entitle him to the
gratitude of every citizen of this, his ma
tive State. The Marlboro Gazette sug-
gests that subscription be taken up to
erect an appropriate monument to his
memory. The Gazette says;
s'His remains are inferred in the city
of Baltimore, which was the theatre of
his most useful labors. There, amidst
her many proud monuments, let the
sculptured shaft tell to future ages the
worth of the man who devoted his whole
life, and sacrificed his time and fortune,
to the cause of the first and most inn
portant interest know to the world-the
cause of agriculture. If the MAXIM
HE who is instrumental in making two
blades Of grass grow where but one
grew before is a greater benelactor to
mankind than the whole race of pol
iticians," be true-and few will deny
it-then the name of John S. Skinner
is worthy niche in the proud Temple
of Fame.
awe hope the matter will be taken
up by the leading agricultu,i,ts and
others in the different counties. and we
suggest that the sums of money raised
for this purpose be sent to the estima-
BILE President of the Maryland State
Agricultural Society, Charles B. Cal
vert, Esq, at Bladensburg, who, we hes
itate not to say, will cheeriully present
the subject to that Society at its next
annual meeting"

The New York Tribune states that a
clandestine correspondence which has
been going on among the inmates of the
Sing Sing State Prison for some time
past was discovered last week. When
first implicated those engaged i'll it
strenuously denI"d any agency in the
matter, but resort to the usual punish
ment ofthc prison-the shower bath
brought forth full confession. Con-
corning this mode of punishment the
Tribune says
The person who is to undergo the OPP
alton is re d, and his legs, arms and
head are firmly fastened with wooden
clasps, so that he cannot get away from
the water nor use his hands to break its
force. The water falls about six feet
and at the rate of about a barrel min
ute, through piece of iron pierced with
quarter-inch holes. The officer inhict-
ing the punishment lets on and shuts off
the water by means ola cord attached to
valve.-Since the lash was abolished,
this mode of punishment has been found
very efficacious.

with age, you present Yourself at the
Threshold of the election, and in accor-
dance with the long established usage,
offer your ballot, this locofoco / arty
steps in and says, because of your age,
and pains and dccrepitude you have no
right to vote. This is the incontrovert-
ible effect of their action against you in
this case-remember it, and mark them
at the coming elections,
In the matter of persons voting who
had no legal residence in the district, it
is manifest that there were more whose
right to vote was doubtful in this respect,
who voted the locofoco ticket than who
voted the wing ticket, and the instiga-
tors of this suit know it. Their only
hope is that by some chance of law, or
the better chance of decision by par
tizan jury, they may set aside the cleo
ton; and we dcnounce the effort as
II TOLD attempt to set aside the W7H 81
people as expressed through the ballot lor:
I'm appeal from the people to a parti-
san jury:
I'm effort to Mmart the sense Of the
people by legal technicahittcs:
I'm attempt Of one man, (and his dack-
ers,) to overthrow the acork Of 800 free
and Independent rioters:
II blow struck at the freedom Of Elec-
tions:
II distrust ofMe decisionscfhe people.
Citizens! of whatever party, guard
your rights--watch with jealous care
these appeals from the people to the
courts.
Wings of Cecil protect your rights as
citizens-stand by your party through
this effort by some of your unprincipled
opponents, to wrest from it the power it
has fairly acquired.

THE STATE OF AFFAIRs.-The Alex
dria (Va.) Gazette says: "Our country
is now eminently prosperous and happy
Were it not for the movements of Abo-
litionists at the North and Disunionists
at the South, there would be nothing 10
obscure the brightest sun that ever shonc
upon a great nation. And how readily
could the clouds that hover upon us be
dissipated if men would only act with
calmness and reason, and with due re-
gard to their own interests and welfare.
TO see the people of the United States,
harassed as they are by band of faction
lists at one extremity, and coterie of
mad politicians at the other, is provok-
ing enough; nor is it easy to measure
language when we are called upon to
contemplate such a scene. Finally,
however, these fanatics and agitators
must be put down by the overwhelming
force of public sentiment.'

The N1cARAGu, ROUTE TO THE IA
c1Flc.-The arrangements for the trans
portation Of passcng rs by this route are
gradually approaching towards compile
ton, and will soon be such as to add
much to its disturbances. Three iron
steamboats, are building in Delaware for
the Atlantic and Pacific Ship Canal Co.,
and will be shipped in the steamer of 4th
of June for their destinations, so that
they may be put together, to be ready
for service by the LIST Of July following.
On the day last mentioned, steamships
will leave both New Y ork and San Fran
cisco, forming, in connexion with these
steamers, a complete line of trans-conli-
mental communication. Each boat is
40 feet long, and very wide, capable of
carrying 300 pas. engers. 1t is probable
that two Of them will run on the san
Juan, as far up as the portage or rapl'S;
the other from the portage to Nicaragua.
From the latter point 10 San Juan del
Sux, on the Pacific, distance of twelve
miles, good mule road has been COM
pleted. The steamer Director, which,
at last accounts, was still running on the
Lake, will very likely be kept as re-
serve boat.-Jour. Commerce.

TIE T. S. Consul AT NALPARAIzo.-
We are highly gratifed to learn from
an entirely authentic source that Col.
4. w. POTTER the manly and accom-
plished Consul at Valparaiso HAS NOT
BEEN RECALLED, but still enjoys, as he
is likely to do for the time he was APP
pointed, the honors and profit, ofhis
lucrative position. The newspaper re-
ports in regard to the matter are incor-
rect, and it is but due to the Colonel that
these papers publishing the rumored re-
call, should now pul fish the contradict
ton. We should have deeply regretted
a step of the kind Oh the part of our
Government, not merely because ofour
partolity to Col. p but because of the
National reputation he won for himself
on his way out, in chastising Wanting
sprig of English nobility. Though this
has been said to be no proper subject for
newspaper or Legislative applause, mas
much as any other American would
have in the same manner resented an
insult to his wife, yet it is the first in
stance of the kind on record, and the
dignif-d and manly bearing Of Col. p.
throughout the whole affair, strongly
commended itself to all, and excited
among his countrymen ev, rywhere un-
bounded admiration and regard.

With the present system of taxation
we think it not improbable that the an
nual surplus, after the present year, will
exceed half IA million Of dollars--so that
the whole debt rcdcenablc at pleasure,
can be paid within few years, and the
State be released from all debt within
the space of ten or twelve years. For,
although large portion Of the debt will
not be redeemable until 1890, yet the
accrung surplus may be invested so as
to afford an interest equivalent to that
paid by the state.-Boh. Clipper.
