Ex-President Tyler,s Letter

= oass Int explanation of the circumstan-
ces uhue which 1t was written on il. face. Home
D.asier 10 well behaved colored man, who has re-
sided among us for several years, and Ia fsyorsblv
known to many Of our citizens
SHERwooD FoRrsr,
CHARLrs Crrr CoUsrY, Va, May 81, 1855.
Mr. Coon FRIESD was highly gratifed in the
receipt Of your letter of the Attn May and shall not
fail to make known your kind remembrances to my
brother, Doctor Wat. n. Tyler, when I see him.
His post Office is the " Old Church, Hanover coun-
ty," and he would be very much pleased to receive
letter from you. Is
Mr.. William Allen is residing at Claremont, hav.
ing married Miss Jessup, from Canada, and Mrs.
Orgain lives at Berkeley, the birthplace Of General
Harrison, which she purchased in the last two
years. k1 ss...
Doctor Minge, after having sold out here and
emigrated to Alabama, has returned TO Virginia,
aud purchased the farm formerly occupied by Mr..
Cooke, near to Flowers de Hundred
Mr. Francis Ruffin still lives at Cabin Point and
Gen. Harvey IN Richmond.
regret to say that our excellent friends, Park
Crump and DR.. Robert Butler, have paid the great
debt OF nature. Two more estimable men rarely,
Il ever, lived.
Thus have given you an account of all those
you inquired after, and doubt not but that each
of them who now live, would most cordially salute
you wherever they might meet you, whether in
your old native Virginia, in your adopted State
OF New York. They say to you what Is true in
regard to the penalties imposed free persons Of
color returning to this State. But it may truly be
said that the stringency of our laws is entirely to
be ascribed to the factious interference of those
who are evermore engaged in the task Of disturb
ing their neighbors, rather than to the spirit and
feelings Of our own people. You were always
treated with attention and respect by this people,
because you were known to be correct In all your
dealings and faithful to all your engagements, and
you can well avouch that all colored men who con-
duct themselves becomiDgly among us, are treated
at all times with consideration and respect. There
are no types of Uncle Tom and bis cabin" except
during the period of his quiet and happy home
with Mr.. St. Clair.
had the pleasure Of meeting with Mr.. Cook
last year, at Saratoga, and through him made in
quiries concerning you. am glad that he made
known the fact to you, as to it am indebted for
your letter.
/ shall take pleasure in mentioning your remem.
brances to the gentlemen as desired, and am graf
lied TO learn that, at your advanced age, you con-
tinue to enjoy good health. So may it long con-
tinue to be. Such is tho sincere wish Of ono who
respects merit without distinction Of race.
Very truly, your friend,
JOHN TYLER.

A Physiological Curiosity,

st. Martin, the man who has an
opening in bis stomach, produced by
a gunshot wound, is in New York,
and number of physicians of that
city have been experimenting with
theyiew to ascertain the time required
to digest food. A thermometer in
troduced into bis stomach through the
opening rose to 101 Fahrenheit. The
carrot, DR.. Buting says, is consumed
in five or six hours. Rare roasted
beef will thoroughly digest in an hour
and half Melted butter will not
digest at all, but floats about in
the stomach. Lobster is compare
lively easy Of digestion. Upon the ap-
plication of the gastric juice to a
piece of purple tissue paper, the color
at once faded. In relation to the
patients health, DR.. Burting observed
that it had beea fortunately excellent,
having from the first effects of the
wound supported a large family by
his daily labor. These experiments
do not differ materially from those
made by DIR. Beaumont twenty years
ago. M. st. Martin is at present
little upwards of fifty years Of age,
of spare frame, but apparently capa-
BILE of considerable endurance He
is in excellent bodily health, and has
much vivacity of manner. The OPEN
ing in the stomach has no injurious
effect upon his health, nor has it pre-
vented him from pursuing active and
severe labors. If he does not keep
a compress to the aperture in drinking
water or swallowing anything else,
the whole contents of the stomach Will
pass outthrough the opneing. Through
this opening come out small parts Of
the stomach, i. e, the inner coat
shows its different appearances-thick
or swollen when under the work Of
digestion, and thinner when the work
is over. st. Martin is on his way to
Europe.

United States, and conspicuously In
Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and
Cincinnati, were keeping up most
unseemly contest with the law officers
Of the United States, and that at
least as early as May the illegality
of the proceedings had been pro-
nounced by the federal courts in New
York and Philadelphia; and yet not
withstanding this, he permitted the
unlawful acts in question to go on,
without check, until the month Of
August. For thus giving counte-
nance to those illegal proceedings he
is distinctly responsible.
But his accountability extends yet
further; for the same documents show
that the official suggestion to the Bri-
tish government of the untoward
scheme of obtaining recruits in the
United States came from the cores
pondence of Mr.. Champion, and of
the consuls at New York, Philadel-
phia and Cincinnati; and that to Mr..
Champion were the superintendent
and execution ofthe scheme commit
ted. And thus it is that he who di-
rected had the power to stop the pro-
ceeding;and thus, from early in March
until August, he is found busily oc-
cupied in experimenting enlistments,
partly in the United States and part.
ly in Canada and Nova Scotia, and in
issuing instructions to the agents en-
gagged in that enterprise.
Concluded neat sceek.
