new and complete Gasetteer Of The United States.
Edited by I. Baldwin and J. Thomas, M. D.
With new and superb map of the United States,
engraved on steel.
The publishers take pleasure in announcing the
completion of this, the most elaborate, compre-
henslve, and perfect Gazetteer of the United
States that has ever issued from the press. In its
preparation no considerations of expense or labor
have been allowed 10 interfere with a work de-,
signed to be as. perfect as possible in every de-
partment, and in all OF its detail. Nor have the
successive issues of other Gazeiteers hurried
through the press to claim the market, tempted
the publishers to offer their book before all the
ample census tof 1S50) and other material in the
hands of the editors were fully digested and accu-
rately arranged.
When the Gazetteer was first announced 500
pages, or at the most 900, were designed as the
limit OF the book. But so vast was the amount of
matter, accumulated through the personal abors
OF the editors and their assistants as well as
through the active efforts of several thousand cor
respondents in all parts of the United States, the
work has swelled TO near 1900 pages. Tht
amount of new matter which il contains, all of
recent character is very large, and in many in
stances embracing statistics and populations TO
1858. This gives il an intrinsic value over every
other work Of the kind in existence.
We therefore offer our Gazetteer confidently, as
the only complete and thoroughly reliable GGret-
teer Of The United States yet published.

COL. EpmuNp p. HuNTER.

We regret to learn that the cholera has made
its appearance in Martinsburg, Virginia, and
has assumed most fatal character. In the
short space of three days twenty-five deaths
occurred in that little town, scarcely numbering
three thousand inhabitants. The disease is not
yet arrested. Among its victims was Col. Ed
mund p. Hunter, who, having contracted the
seeds of disease at Martinsburg, died at the
Berkeley Spring, bath, after an illness of q
few hours. Col. Hunter was a lawyer of high
reputation in that section of bis State, and
from the honest frankness and manliness Of his
character, had won for himself a host of friends,
whose deep regrets mingle with the tears of his
bereaved family over his untimely fate. For sew
ersl years representative in the legislature Of
Virginia, he extended his reputation for talent,
and gained from all who knew him the respect
and esteem which is ever the reward of sound
intellect and an honest heart. To us he was well
known, and by us much beloved, nor can we
forbear to pay this simple tribute to the memory
Of warm friend and a good man.

OBITUARY.

DIED, in this city, at S o'clock, p. m. Sunday,
10th instant, Mrs. ELIZABETH BENTON, wife
OF the Hon. THOMAS II. BENTON, aged sixty years.
Her protracted illness of several years. which from
the first was known 10 beyond remedy, was borne
with patience and propriety Of demeanor that
proves how the noble faculties and affections may
survive the wreck of the mortal frame. Deprived
of utterance OF all her energies, Mrs. Benton still
preserved the bearing OF one whose mind would
not allow the most prostratng affection 10 over
throw the fine character il had formed. No part
Of il gave way under the long trial 10 which il
subjected. The simplicity Of manners, the domes-
tic and social virtues, the generous, hightoned,
well-regulated feelings the religious faith severe
to herself liberal 10 all the rest Of the world, in
which she was nurtured in her fathers house and
among the Virginia Purtans OF Rockbridge, stood
the test of thirty years. spent amidst the fsshona
able life Of Washington and the prejudces Of its
political strife, without reproach. Her exalted
character bore the more trying ordeal Of a maady
which conquers the will and often breaks down
the nobler traits of the most happily constituted
natures. The ruling feeling in Mrs. Benton's
heart and strongest 10 the last, was her devotion
TO her husband. Oflate she has sat constantly by
his side when at his labors at home, and indeed
their lives may be said to have been inseparable,
for she has made her home wherever business
called him. She was reconciled 10 part with him
on his late return TO Missouri because she was
too weak to accompany him, and knew that his
duty required his presence at his home When she
felt the approach of the crisis which terminated
her life she led her daughter TO the vacant chair
in which her husband worked, and, by look and
gestures, made il apparent that she required his
recall. Ii was too late. She walked TO the bed
in the next apartment, from which she was never
able to rise again.

IL Sick Headache Remedy.--A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
to the public, is attracting great attention, not only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials 10
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by it, but also because
there are SO great number Of people who are If
Aicted with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public. DIR.
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy of his "rem-
edy" is physician in this city, in high standing,
with large practice. Heis a.physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for very common disease, which
has been so long needed, has attractedhe attention
of all sufferers from headache who have heard of it,
From our own knowledge of DR.. Eastman's char
acter and practice, we have no doubt that the med.
icne deserves the favor it receives, and that il will
prove 10 be a great benefit 10 all who may give il
a trial-Lyn1 Nesos, December %, 1853.

A WING CONFESSION.

Our respected contemporaries Of the Intel
ligencer copied into their issue Of yesterday,
from the Baltimore american, the following
extract, portion Of which we italicise:
"ABoLITIoNIzED.-The Washington Senti-
nel one Of the few papers south of Mason Il
Dixon's line that seems to delight in the dis
cussion Of negrodom, is endeavoring to show
that the Northern Wing party is far more abo-
itionized than the Northern Democratic party.
We would suggest that the question to be dis
cussed should rather be-" which of the two
parties has best succeeded in deceiving the
South as to its real views for the sake Of the
loaves and fishes 2" Northern Wings and
Northern Democrats are equally opposed TO The
extension Of slapery, and whaterer either may
yield on the point IS merely TO secure the co
operation of the South TO aid them in obtaining
place and po,oer. Freesoil doctrines are uni
pcrSdl IN the Northern States Abolitionisn'
has IFS separate organization, and is nei6le,
Wing or Democratic"
We presume that the insertion of this ex
tract in the Intelligcncer is evidence of on,
neighbours approval Of it. We therefore fee
justified in assuming that the Intelligence,
unitss with the american in the declaration
that "Freesoil doctrines are universal in thu
Northern States. Abolitionism has its sepa
rate organization, and is neither Wing no
Democratic"
This is plain and voluntary confession tina
the Wings of the north hold "Freesoil doc
trines," and are therefore unworthy Of the sym
PATTY and association Of southern Wings. Al
voluntary confession Of guilt, this declaration
is unassailable. 1t is the highest evidenc,
known to the law. But misery loves company
and as the fox whose tail had been cut off, wa

TINE HYDROMAGEN is A VALUABLE
III discovery for protecting the feet from damp
or cold and therefore preventative OF many lung
diseases, pulton arg docoring Dhateuer. The
Hydromagen is in the form of a sole, and worn in
side the boot shoe. Its niedtcated character Is
powerful antidote TO disease.
For gentlemen it will be found agreeable, warm,
and healthy, to wear in the coolest or rainiest
weather. as the foot cannot become wet If the
Hydromagen is inserted. Ladies may wear the
lghtest soled boots shoes in the most inclement
weather with impunity while consumption, so
prevalent among the young OF our country, may
be thwarted by their general adoption. They en-
tirely supersede 0uerSOes, as the latter cause the
feet to perspire in very unhealthy manner; and,
besides, are not dangerous 10 wear TO pedestrians
in icy weather, like India rubbers. While the latter
cause the feet to appear extremely large, the
Hydromagen, being a mere thin slice Of cork pre-
pared, peculiarly placed inside, does not increase
the size of the boot, or cause the foot 10 appear
untidy. To children they are extremely valuable,
as they may engage in exercise with comfort and
healthy effects. Their expense is so slight as 10
scarce need mention; besides, those who pat
ronize them will find their yearly doctors bills much
diminished thereby.
As the Hydromagen is becoming more known,
lis sale is increasing 10 an almost incredible ex-
tent, Last year, in London, Manchester Birmng-
ton, Liverpool, Glasgow, Leeds, Dublin, Paris,
Antwerp, Hamburg, and Berlin, our sales reached
,732 450 pairs Of cork soes. This year the num-
Der will far surpass that.
