The FEvER.-On what ground our friend
of the Wing, imagines the health Of Woodyille
is restored, we cannot perceive. We know, the
physicians do not think SO, nor do they think
it safe for persons from the country to come
into town. One and two new cases are oc-
curing daily some Of these too after but a few
days exposure, since their return TO their resid-
ence in town. The truth is, az tie time Of
writing this, a recurrence Of the epidemic Is
threatened, the weather is warm, and enough
of our citizens have returned to furnish ample
material for it. We, would advise abseutees
to return Only after the weather has become
really cold, and there has been frost enough
to Kill vegetation--wlich God grant we may
soon have. ~, -

"Pears are sometimes found IN the heads
of toads &c"- Wilkinson Wig
Not a doubt of it. We have thought for
some time, we discovered something peculiarly
bright about the writings Of those elegant
gentlemen, who attempted to enlighten q the
public through the columns of the Whig, and
the principle of natural history, spoken Of
above, it is easily accounted for. AS TO the
school muster being abroad" we have only
to express our regret that our friend Of the
Wing has never met with him. ,Sensibie
people will be aware Of the errors in proof
readings, which must occur when the whole
labor Of getting out paper devolves mainly
on single workman, and that too, without
the supervision and corrections Of the editor.
But would it not have looked better had
our neighbor replied to the substance of our
article, referring to the outrage perpetrated in
its issue Of the 18th inst, on the feelings Of
those Independent whigs who exercised the
freamans right of voting rs they pleased, and
were accordingly denounced by our neighbor
as unworthy the name "a name too, Of
which they are doubtless proud, and also en-
deavored to make some amends for that gross
insult, rather than to have attempted the HtHe
business, in political controversy, Of picking
out flaws and errors oftype, which as we have
shown must under certain circumstances occur.
The Wing, labors under a grand mistake if it
imagnes it can avoid the consequences Of the
fragrant outrage it has committed against the
rights of suffrage, in so fimsy and futile a
manner as that attempted in its article, classic
ally headed Whar's the Dictionary" We
would refer our friend, for his own good, to
that imperisllable couplet Of the immortal
Burns:
80 wad some power the gifie gle us,
To see ourselves, as Others see us"

AxxExAnoN.-W are to be annexed, it
seems, to nearly all the nations. with whom
we have diplomatic intercourse Don Cal
deron de la Barca; the Spanish Minister at
Washington, now summoned, as Minister OF
Foreign Affairs, married an American lady
Mr. Bodisco the Russian Minister, has an
American wife, and family Of seven children
American born Monsieur Pageot, former,
and NJ. Startiges, the present, French Minister
at Washington, have both American wives.
These facts seem to speak well for the supe-
rior attractiveness of American ladies. What
influence might they not have in the future
1t seems that progressis is not shut out, even IN
this field.

How it Works.

In New York, where, on account Of disap-
pointment resulting from the distribution Of
offices, the democratic party has been divided
and split into factions, the result has been the
complete overthrow for the tme-being Of the
Democracy and the elevation to office Of Sc
ward-Whgs throughout the State. Though
this result is to be deplored yet we can but
feel our party have got their just deserts
When men allow their passions to carry them
to the extremes of disunion and loss Of or
gsnmtiou, defeat aud disgrace must iueyita-
bIy oversize them. In New York there is
less excuse Cor this. state Of things when we re-
fleet on the trivial causes pgoceedingit As in
an army ali cannot be officers, so in the con
fering Of Executive patronage, every hungry
aSpirant, cannot have his cravings satisfied,
Nor is it true as the whig press Is insinuating
and contcnding, that il was tine favor which
freesoilers were receiving which has caused
the trouble of which we ,peak--this is only
an eycuse--a halfway rcas on, True It has
the policy to admit to favor all who united on
the democratic platform without regard to an
teccdcuts, and in this way some who had
formerly acted with the Van Buren, party,
doubtless received faith of their new pledges.
Now the huukers wishing all the loayes--
were not willing that any one else should have
so much as fish, or, to 90 further with the
illustration without any disrcspcct for Holy
Writ there is an mwillingness that they who
came in at the eleventh hour should share
with those who have borne the heat Of burthen
of the day. But the strength of the admin
istration, is shown in that, all opposition to it,
in the political ranks, goes down--being pow.
erless to oppose the steady on going policy
which charsctcrizcs our present executive.
What spectacle Barroom Oratoritors and
Newspapers scrblcrs who loudly huzzaed for
Pierce aud King, and swore twas all for pat
rotsm, no sooner find him elected than they
clamor for favor and reward, aud if this is not
extended as they wish forthwith set up cries
of opposition and hoYls of rage. Who thinks
himself ms well ouafihol for office ns ''some
folks" is at his old tricks Of abuse and Sian.
der aud so il goes. Elsewhere where men
have been governed by reason and common
sense allowances have been made for the diff.
cuIhes which must always surround an incom-
ing administration aud large democratic ma
jorties attest the favor with which the
people regard the course of the President and
his able advisers, and we are proud to record
Mississippi rs not behindhand in this respect
and ere long we predict tie New Workers,
having reflected, will conclude that in union
aud harmonious support of the great prinei-
pies Of democracy can they alone expect to be
found on the winning side. Mutual sacrifices
must always be made to secure harmony IN
any bodyor party.

DEATH or Dr. Il. BALDwiN.-lt has never
been our lot to put pen TO paper on subject
so mounful to ourselves Ms that on which we
pen these few words.
During the past season, while the arrows
Of the great destroyer have been hurting
through the air striking down in all parts Of
our fair land, the lovely, the gifted and the
good, none more beloved in the circle in which
he moved, and by all who knew him every
where, and none more worthy Of that lore
have fallen, than was the subject Of these
lines. A most pleasant companion, gifted
with rare conversational powers, learned and
accomplished in bis prolession-a devoted
and srlf-sacriiicing friend---a consistent chris
tan, and in every respect, a noble MAN.
We know that obituaries are generally
regarded like epitaphs, as dwelling on the
bright points fully as much, or more than
truth would exactly permit; so Of friendly no.
tees ike the present, but we also know, none
who knew our friend, will accuse us Of exag-
geration IN what we are saying; he was, and
is, 50 to speak, an exception to the supposed

wondering If it he indeed true, we shall see his
face and bear his cheerful voice no more
But there is consolation in knowing dIe loss
is all on our side, that bitterly az we may
mourn, with him there is gain, Eternal gain.
Sweet be bis sleep, light the turf and fresh
the flowers above his head,
The night dew that falls, though in silence
it wecps,
Shall brighten with verdure, the grave whore
be sleeps,
And the tear that we shed, though in silence
il rolls,
Shall long keep his memory green in our
souls.
