DELAWARE GETTING Crv1LIzED.-In Delaware
the whipping post aud pillory are favorite modes
of Furnishing offences, but it appears that those

of the barBarous character of the punishments.

On Saturday, the 2sth ult., in accordance with
the sentence of the court, Daniel Morgan was, by
the Sheriff. placed in the pilory for one hour, at the
expiration of W hich time twenty lashes were in

Sheriff declaring positively that he would not use
cowhide on any white man. Whilst standing in
the pillory, the blood became SO stagSated in the
prisoners face and hands as torender them almost

completed, the prisoner was remanded to the coun-

A BEAR FioHT. Two men; while hunting for
deer in st. Lawrence county, New York last week,
met with a monster bear One of the men, named
Chapman olmstead, leveled his double bnrreled

TmE NEW MoToR-THE ERIcssoN ENaINE'-The
following article from the New York Journal OF
Commerce, would seem to give hope that the Erics-
son engine was no failure after all:
1t will be recollected that the calorc ship Erics-
son returned from her trip to Washington about
seven months ago, and that Immediately thereafter
esSse nliaI notifications and improvements IN the
plan OF the engine were determined upon. THESE
have since been in progress at Williamsburg, near
where the ship was built, and where she has since
lain The public will be gratifed to learn that
these alterations are now nearly completed, and
that, so far from the enterprise having been aban-
doned, as has been the general belief. the fullest
confidence is entertained the part of those i'm
mediately interested, OF its complete success, on
the second "trip of the ship. MIR. Ericsson is deyo-
ting his whole tine and undivided energies TO the
realization of this end.
1t is expected that within two weeks, one Of the
engines will be completed, and ths other VIII be
n he'd soon nlter The several parts are all ready,
and now on board. Weunderstand that the pow
er of these engines will far exceed what was at
tanned under the low pressure system employed ON
The first tTp-as- they are now to be worked under
condensed, pressure. 3 .t.,J..
Ii is TO be hoped that these anticipatlons may not
prove unfounled. It would be difficult 10 preulct
what changes might ensue in the course OF lew
years, in steim navigation, should Mr.. Ericsson
succeed in the application of his principle LOT
practical purposes.

aandwich Islands.

The la,e Washington City papers bring us intel
iisence that DR.. Judd, late Minister of Finance'
IN, II signed, and that Elisha H. Allen late U. s.
Consul at Honolulu, and an American, has been
amounted TO succeed him as Minister of Finance.
This is regarded as seriously indicative of annexa-
ron TO the United States, as DR.. Judd has been
,otoriously opposed to such course and Mr.. AL
len is supposed TO favor it. The French and Eng
Iish ConsuIs, as usual, have made this the occa-
SION of letter of remonstrance to his majesty, the
King Of the Islands, aud have addressed 10 him
letter in opposition 10 annexation, in which they
AXE the position that existing treaties between his
naies.y and their powers 'were made on the clear
understanding that he was TO retain his sovereign
W Truly we may expect these powers soon to
demonstrate against the removal of one of our Sec
retaries, and perhaps Mr. Guthrie is retained be-
Cause OF some Temonstronce in these kind inter-
,neddlers. What we are TO expect next does not
appear; but it does seem rather novel that Eng
land AMI France are to exercise in every cline, in
every sea- and every island, the right 10 dictate
10 eye.y nation and power, what it shall do; AID
how every move, even to an appointment of Minis
ter, is to be made. Our Consul promptly replied
to eir note, and stated that he had noanthonty 10
make or review any proposition on the subject, but
that he doubted not but that our government
would rive any proposition from the Hawaiian 60
ve1nment a respectful consideration.
If Great Britain and France continue their reg
ular and oficiOus intermedling thus, if every sub
of those kingdoms, from he Minister down to their
pet;est consuls isregularIy to interfere whenever
any thing is said even, about the United States,
ne rally fear that they will have to be taught
lesson which must be unpleasant to all paIties.-
But our Government must take and maintain its
stand, and must say to European governments that
they shall moi interfere in that with which they
have no right to be concernedi and that'we will
annLx Whatever we please, provided the country
we annex is willing and does not belong to one of
tie renonstrants. -.t5z.
The policy of such annexation is one thing, and
on. right 10 do SO, when opposed by parties who
have no right to do so, is quite another. We could
almost wish that some suitable annexation scheme
could be presented soon, in order that it might at
once be settled, whether our every political move
was 10 lie determined and measured by the will
and pleasure of these self-constituted guardians
of the world. If our course is to be governed by
them, the sooner we know it the better, and if not
1t is right that we should stand before the world in
our true position, that of a free and sovereign
people.

CoRx AND wnEAr IN onlo.-The Cincinnati
Railroad Journal, in the course of carefully pre-
pared article on the agricultural products of Ohio
says:
tAveraging all seasons aud all lands, Ohio pro-
duces, uniformly, sixteen bushels of wheat, and
thrty-fve bushels Of corn per acre. In good
season, OH the two million of acres of.wheat, we
shall have over thirty millions of bushels; and ON
the corn lands, seventy millions. We have raised
more than that in wheat. At the rate of the last
three years, we have r ised wheat enough (at the
European allowance) for four millions of people
which is double the States population. Our corn
and cattle are in proportion. So that, somewhere
in the world. we feed two millions Of other people.
One million of those people, fed by Ohio are IN
New England, to which we sell a million OF bar-
rels of -four, with pork and lard to match. We
can feed million more, and those will be in Eu-
rome chiefly. Without ct all infringing on prop
er Dr. portion of woods meadows, pasture and fall
low, Ohio might cultivate twelve millions OF acres
in arabic ground. At our present averages, this
would give us eighty millions of bushels OF wheat,
and one hundred and sixty millions Of corn-iull
enough for the support of twelve millions oil peo-
Lie.
