DISTRESSING AccIDENr.--We learn
that man was discovered about five
miles from Charlotte, where wagoner
had camped on the 18th inst, so much
burned that he could not be recognised.

toxicated that when he fell into the fire
he could no: extritate himself-a bottle
was found near him which strengthens
this supposition. One or two books were
found on him, but nothing that could
give any clue to his name or from whence
he came. 1t is thought that he might
have been schoolmaster, as one of his
books was an arithmatSc.
We have learned since the above was
written that his name was William Rob

Mr. 0Conner, unable to stand under the opprse siye
aggressions Of despotic bigot, made his appeal TO

by the testimony that Father 0'Flsherty not only
assumed to excommunicatc Mr.. O'Conncr and IA

down and remove the old geutlemah's pew. Hence

CHoLERA.--The following extract from the
letter Of clergyman to the Lord Lieutenant
oil lrland, presents very simple, and, he
says, effectual, preventive Of cholera, as well
as a remedy Of great power:-
"The preventive is simple; teaspoonful
OF powdered charcoal taken three or four
times a week, in cup of coffee, or other
liquid, in the morning.
"When attacked with cholera a mixture OF
an ounce of charcoal, an ounce of laudanum,
and an ouce of brandy, or other spirits, may
be given as follows-after being well sha.
ken: teaspoonful every five minutes. = In
hall an hour have known this eGectually to
relieve and stay the desease. As the patient
becomes better, the mixture may be given
at longer intervals.
~ have known pa,ihnt in the blue stage.
and collapsed, perfectly recovered in few
hours
"The charcoal was tried as a preventive
on large platform in the Mauritius, and
not single individual out of eight hundred
was attacked with cholera"

THE sHAMoKIN COAL TRADE.

We shall next week, under the head of
''Shamokin Coal Trade" give our readers a
statement OF the amount OF coal sent TO mar.
ket from this region for the present year, up
10 the first OF July; and thereafter report the
weekly shipment
So far this season, there has been, and still
exists, great difficulty in obtaining snfi-
cient boats, nor is there even yet anything
like adequate wharfage for The convenience OF
the trade al this point. The demand for
coal is active. The mining facilities, very
far exceed the means OF shipment. There
is therefore, pressing necessity, for the
completion of Railroad communication with
the Atlantic markets. Operators are now
obliged to limit their contracts, and will be
compelled to do so, till the Transporting ia

! bury, but from this point, owing to INSULT
cient wharfage and deficiency OF boats, az
we have said the amount demanded by the
market cannot be shipped. The Company
are however, we understand, making ar
Engagements, by purchasing their own boats
to remidy the difficulty al this point, and new
wharfs are in rapid progress of completion.
A New Engine, called the Lancaster
constructed by Norris & Sons of Phiaiel phia
drew ninety five loaded cars, each car carry
ing five tons, from Shamokin TO the wharfs
at this point on Monday last. The Engineer
Mr.. J. s Funk tells US that, in his opinion sh
is capable OF drawing one hundred AM
twenty five cars.
