Post il not advised Of what the precise diff
Guilty was, but il was of an insurmountable
character, and hence the negotiations entered
into by Mr.. Shaffner, the agent Of the company,
with the respective governments for right to
lay wires from the coast Of Norway, by way Of
the Farce islands and Iceland, to the coast Of
Labrador, by which they escape the necessity
of using any cable Of more than five hundred

IL Sick Headache Remedy remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
10 the public, is attracting great attention. not only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials TO
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by il, but also because
there are so great number OF people who are af
Aicied with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public. DR..
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy of his ''rem-
edy" is physician in this city, in high standing,
with large practice. He is 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 attracted the attention
Of all sufferers from headache who have heard Of il.
From our own knowledge Of DIR. Eastman's char
acier and practice we have no doubt that the med
cine deserves the favor receives and that il will
prove 10 be a great benefit to all who may give il
a trial-Lyn,, Ne,cs, December 80, 1853.

The Abolition organ, in this city, publishes
a letter written in Baltimore before the recent
election Of Mayor, in which the defeat of the
Democracy is predicted, and the anticipated
result attributed to the aid which the Wing
candidate would receive from the Freesoilers
and Maine Law men. If this statement be
true. il would indicate that there are Adolf
t;onists in BALTIMORE, and that they have de.
termined TO give effect to their hostility to the
institutions among which they live, by the
secret movements which the knos-nothing
organization enables them to make. The cor
respondent Of the Abolition organ affirms In
effect, that SO far MS Baltimore is concerned,
the Native American movement is . mere pre-
tence, and that the organization which has
been built up under that pretence is really the
work of Abolitionists and Maine Law men, and
is intended to carry ont their purposes. The
letter to which we allude is Ms follows:

wouAS FouND IN THE Woops.--A woman,
upwards of fifty years Of age, was found about
seventy or eighty miles above the mouth OF the
Oconto river, in the early part of last week.
She seems to be partially crazed, and can give
no intelligence as to where she belongs. She
has probably been wandering on the woods for
weeks. She says that her maiden name was
Mary Ann Kingsland; that when child, she
lived in the city of New York; went from there
to Geneses county, where she went to school
until she was 10 years old; she there married
n man by the name Of Crosby, Who lived in
Canada, who died soon afterwards; that she
came neEt to Illinois, and married Mr. James
DAY, an engineer on an Ohio river steamboat.
Up to this point she rslates her history very
clearly, but oil after is confused, and il cannot
be sscertaned where she belongs or how she
came TO stray into the woods, except that she
has been on Wolf river, and says something
about hunting Cor roots and herbs, II is pos
sible that she wandered from there 10 where
she was found on the Oconto. II was the IN
tention to bring her here. --Grcen Bay Adrcr-
