1r IS A FACT ESTABLISHED

And we'll known that the Arabiahs attained
a height in the knowledge Of medicine which
caused the whole world to wonder and ad.
mire. With them the science of chemistry
had ito birth. and it ID, therefore, not at al
strange that people 90 eminently successful
in the healing art, and 80 persevering and
daring in character, should, by actual and un.
firing experiment, discover remedies far sur.
passing in efficacy all others. for the cure Of
those diseases incident to them from their
mode of life. The greater part Of their time
being spent in hazardous and bloody warfare
with the different tribes, they were subject to
the most violent attacks Of rheumatism, par.
alysis. neuralgia pains. and various inhamma.
tory diseases, as also the most hOrrid wounds,
sprains, bruises tumors, swellings, diseases of
the Joints. etc. etc. All these diseases they
were so surprisingly efficient in curing, that
the upinitiated looked with wonder and at.
tributed their skill u the powers OF magic. II.

The latest news seems to point unmis
takably to general war England is
ripe for it. So is France. The Czar en-
tirely refuses to treat with the Four Pow
ers Vienna--and refuses to recognize Eu-

Turkey. Tho French Government have
given notice officially that the allied fleets
have been ordered into the Black Sea, to
defend Turkish commerce. It has called
upon Austria to aid. 1t calls in vain.-

Goals in England, and is even charged
with betraying British counsels to Russia.

Sensible Appointment.

The Wayne County Democrat in speak
ing of the appointment of the Hon. D. A.

awe learn through private source that
our old esteemed friend, Hon. David A.

the appointment of Minister to Chill, in
the place of Col. s. Medary, resigned
This is glorious intelligence, and will be
hailed with unbounded pride by Mr.. S. S

particularly this region.
Mr.. S. deserves this, or even a better
position, and we are certainly reioiced to
know that President PIERCE has confer
red this mark of honor upon him and his
old Congressional District, of which
Wayne county was part. He will ac-
quit himself in such a manner as will re-
. feet credit on himself and the Admins
tration."
We have not the least doubt but that
Mr.. Starkweather will "acquit himself in
such manner as will reflect credit upon
himself and the Administration, but how
men appointed, who have ever been the
open and avowed enemies of the Admin
istration, can act in such manner as to do
credit to it, is more than we can conceive
for our life.

He was for many years a resident of Gin

social qualities; had a kind and generous
disposition, which made him a general
fayorite in all classes of society. AS a
member of the legal profession he attain
ed high rank; indeed there were few
members of the bar of our country who
were his superiors. His classical attain
ments were of the finest order, and his
mind was perfect treasury of knowledge.

more personal friends, and the tidings of
his death falls heavily upon them.-Cin.

on this road, that meeting Of the Super
intendents of the, Cincinnati, Hamilton,

running time and to perfect their connec-

have been perfected, and that in few
days our road will be supplied with two
regular trains of cars each day, thereby
making regular connections with the 9TH

sons travelling east and west will find their
route shortened very much by taking the

Decision of the supreme Court.


1t will be remembered that great deal
of difficulty occurred between the banks
and the county Treasurers in relation to
the collection of the taxes due from banks,
in consequence of which the matter was
referred to the Supreme Court, and upon
which the Court has decided. The Ohio
State Democrat says, ''The Bank taxa
ton case which has been before the Su-
preme Court several months, was decided
yesterday morning. Thus is the tax law,
and the construction given to it by Mr..
MORGAN, the Auditor of State, complete
ly yindicated. The Joamal of last even,
ing. in referring to this decision, rings the
alarm bell, and raises the old panic cry Of
the Bankers, that capital will be driven
from the State,'' &c. Very well. Il
capital is unable to stand its just proper
ton Of the burdens of Government, we
say, "let il acent!" But the people have
heard this panic cry from that source be-
fore, and they will hesitate to believe that
the Commonwealth will be pauperized by
the exodus Of all its capital during the
current year. We are inclined to believe
that the question Of equal taxation may
be regard as settled in Ohio, and that thu
insurection of the Bank power agains
the laws, is very nearly subdued.

The San Francisco Herald, of the 29th
ult., says:-We can state, on positive
knowledge, that a vessel was engaged in
this city a few days since by the fllibus-
ters; but owing to misunderstanding on
the part of some of them, the vessel was
not chartered. The number who contem-
plated going in this vessel was quite large,
and it is believed by those who know, that
they have not relinquished the idea. Many
of them pretend to be in possession of in
formation that all is going on well in the
Republic Of Lower California, and that
the reports to the contrary are manufac-
tured to deter these adventurous ones from
going. The expeditionists say that such
reports won't 60 down."

California Affairs.

To our surprise, the adventures in
Lower California, instead of being used up
by the Mexicans, were, at the latest ad-
vices, increasing in numbers and holding
their hostile position. Intelligence reach
ed San Diego to the following effect.
Since the skirmish at the Ranch of La
Grulla, the invaders have been in close
quarters at Ensenada, inhabiting an adobe
house at that place, which, up to late ad-
vices, seems to have re sisted all attacks
upon it. It is in the immediate vicinity of
a clump of willows, which have been oc-
cupied by the besieging Mexicans as a
camp ground during the time they have
devoted to watching the little garrison
The party of natives is under the COM
mand of two noted soldiers of fortune,
Nigreta and Millendrez.
Matters thus stood until the night of
the 25th, when, storm of wind and rain
occurring, it was thought favorable time
to make sortie. The fighting party was
composed oftwenty men, under command
of Lieut.. Crocker, of the battalion. They
sailed out in the darkness, and surround
ed the camp of the besiegers, who were
in torpid state from the cold and some
what sleepy from the effects of long
watching, and much unaccustomed to ex-
ercise. At given signal the attack was
made, and at the first alarm every Mexi-
can took to his heels.
All the baggage and effects of the be-
sieging army were found in the camp, and
appropriated by the victors. Among these
was brass feld-piece, lot of saddles,
brides and other horse gears, arms of va
rious pattern, articles of camp furniture
and cooking utensils, and number of In
dian bows and arrows.
Other expeditions were fitting out in
the California cities, and were organizing
to sail.-Gn. Eng.

Proclamation by the president.

dent to make an effort to stop the expe-
dition making on that country, but we
doubt his ability to do it, for the young
men of Upper California, once started are

"PRocLAMATIoN.-Whereas, intorma-
ton has been received by me that an un-
lawful expedition has been fitted out in
the State Of California with view to invade

lations with the United States--and that
other expeditions are organized withia the
United States for the same unlawful pur
pose; and whereas certain citizens and II. .

their obligations and duties, and of the
rights of a friendly power, have partici-
pated, and are about to participate in
these enterprises, SO derogsAaeA 2eour ma
tional character, and SO thr thening to

the severe penalties imposed by law
against such offenders:
Now, therefore, l, Franklin Pierce,
President of the United States. have
issued this, proclamation, for warning to
all person who shall connect themselves
with any such enterprise or expedition
that the penalties of the law denounced
against such criminal conduct will be rig

zens, as they regard our national charac-
ter, as they respect our laws or the laws

peace and the welfare of their country, to
discountenance, and by all means prevent
such criminal enterprises; and call upon

in their power to arrest for trial and pun

Railroad Accidents.

We extract from report of the Chief
Engineer, on the Ohio and Pennsylvania
Railroad, Mr.. s. w. ROBERTS, few words
for the benefit of the travelling public
Many of the accidents on railroads are
caused by the carelessness of the passen-
gers themselves, and in such cases rail-
road companies should not be held re-
sponsible. Here is the extract:
1.-The anxiety of Railroad officers is very
much increased by the determined dispo-
siticn shown by many passengers to disre-
gard the rules established for their own
protection. They will not take their seats
before the cars start, and they will leave
them before they stop. They will stand
ON the platforms, pass through the trains
when in motion, and get into the baggage
cars. The most positive warnings and
prohibitions are posted up in vain,
and the most positive orders given to the
train hands are disregarded by passengers
who ought to know better. The fact that
gentleman is a stockholder, or an editor,
or prominent politician, or an officer of
some other company, or even that he is a
frequent traveller on the road, justifies him
in his own opinion, in doing wrong him.
self, and setting a bad example to others.
In the West this evil is much more diff
cult tosovercome than in the East If it
were possible to get juries to decide that
person could not recover damages for
personal injuries, which he would have
escaped if he had been complying with
the rules of the road at the time, it would
have most salutary effect in inducing
passengers to as they ought for their own

OUR CHuRcHEs.-As our town is rapid
ly on the increase in population, and our
church buildings are small and rather in
ferior in appearance, would it not be poll
cy to make move for some improvement
in this line. And when our churches are
built and unoccupied by the persuasionto
which they belong, we think it would be
but christian-lNe, to permit preachers Of
of other persuasions to occupy the build
ings temporarily.
This subject was brought to our mind
by the remarks Of some friends, and real
ly some better and larger edifces will
soon be required for worship, should our
town increase with the same progress she
has made for the few past years. We on
ly mention this for the present to call the
attention of our citizens to the matter.
