SwINDLING REDUCED TO A
SCIENCE

They have professors of all sorts in mod
ern times in our chief cities; but it is only
lately that we have learned that there is a.
scientific mode of swindling creditors, and
that there are professors to teach the art.
The following notice we cut from the ad-
vertising columns of the New York Herald.
~ Merchants embarrassed, in want of
means, or willing to suspend with means. bv
hnanclering, can hear of a party who has inst
earned parties through to the amount of SsG.OOO
without prejudice. Address los Herald office,
Reference given.'
We can imagine, from the history of the
financial and commercial circles of Nav
York. that there must be abundant business
for this advertiser in that CITY. The efl
frontery of offering to assist embarrassed
merchants, who are "uilting to saspeaa5gl
aoah means, By .fnanciering" is amazing.
The advertiser offers to give references.
and we presume he will refer to some Of
the honorable parties whom he has ..iust
carried through to the amount of $50 200"
Is This sort of morality tolerated in New
York. and do the commercial community
really give a support to such professors of
the art of swindling!

wALEpArER POISONING.

DIR. Kinds of Birmingham, has lately
called attention to method of accidental
arsenical poison, which should be generally
known, and from which he was himself the
sufferer. He CHANGED to select, for the
adornment ofhis study, particularly bright
tinted wallpaper. the pattern of which was
confnded to two shades of green. About
two days after it had been applied, he first
used the room in the evening, sitting there,
and reading by gas-light. Whilst thus
engaged, he was seized with severe depres-
sion, nausea, abdominal pain. and prostra-
ton. The same chain of symptoms ensued
on every subsequent evening when he oc-
cupied the room. This led to an inquiry
into the cause. He scraped off little of
the bright colouring matter from his pretty
green paper, and, by sublimation, produced
abundant crystals of arsenious acid. The
paper was colored with arsenite of copper
(Scheele's green.) The use of this pigment
to colour wallpapers has already proved
Injurious in previous cases. In one, child
sucked some strips of paper thus coloured'
and narrowly escaped with life. ED.
Monthly Journal, 1851 DIR. Kinds re-
marks, that the presence of the arsenieal
pigment may be recognized by its brilliant
and beautiful hue, and by little running OF
the colour at the edges of the pattern, as
though it did not take freely to the paper.

LOOK OUT PoR SPIES"

Under the above caption the Camden
Journal cautions the Southern public against
class of persons who are frequently travel
ing throughout the South, and who, hailing
from the North, may properly be regarded
with suspicion. A correspondent of that
paper says:
1.-THE late developments made by the
committee who examined the luggage of
the ''strong minded woman" at Sumter, go
to prove the necessity of some decided ac-
ton on the part of the people of our State
and of the Southern States. In view of
the case of Mrs. Emerson, would suggest
the formation in each city, town and village
of our State a Vigilance Committee, whose
duty it shall be to look out for the arrival,
watch the conduct, and note the departure
of all suspicious persons from the North,
and New England and should such per-
sons show any disposition to meddle in our
affairs, or fail to give satisfactory account
of themselves, give them reasonable time to
depart, and report them TO the other Com
mittees throughout the State; course of
this kind may prevent serious consequences
to both parties in future.

THINGS IN UTAH.

Washington letter-writers say the condi-
ton of affairs in Utah has claimed to some
degree the attention of the administration,
but no decision has been come to in the
matter, the position of foreign affairs being
considered of greater Importance, and en-
crossing large share of the time of the
President and Cabinet. So soon, however,
as the Chinese and other questions of
moment affecting our foreign relations, are
put in fair train of settlement, Mormon
dom will receive the consideration of the
government to the degree which it deserves.
The lawless state of things in Utah has
forced the resignation of Hon. w w Drum
mond, of the Supreme Court of that terri
ry. whose reasons for such a course GRO of
nature to show the necessity for the in
reference of the federal government. This
statement adduces that the Mormons look
to Brigham Young alone for law, consider
ing no act of Congress binding; that there
is band of men set apart by special order
of the church to take the lives and proper
ty of all who may question the authority of
the CnufCH, tuat the ToCOruS OF the court
have been destroyed and the federal officers
insulted for questioning the reasonable act;
that the said federal officers are constantly
insulted, harassed and annoyed; and daily
compelled to hear the name of the republic
and the chief executives thereof, living and
dead, not excluding our beloved Washing
ton. slandered and abused by the masses
and lenders of the church in the most vul-
gar, loathsome and wicked manner.
But the time is nearly at hand when these
traducers of all that is good, and workers of
evil, will receive the due reward of their
deserts. The recent army order, for a
movement to the far West of considera-
BILE number of United States troops, is re-
garded as intended for the special benefit
of the Latter Day Saints,'' as they term
themselves. trust it may be so, and that
Gen. Harvey, whose field of operations has
been changed to the West, may be invest
ed with the command of body of troops
sufficient to chastise these vioators of the
laws of God and man, and traducers of the
Republic. That they deserve a sound
thrashing is unquestioned. and that they
may receive it is confidently hoped for and
expected. The administration would fail in
its duty were it to neglect to pursue such a
course to the bitter end.

CHURCH D1sTURBANcEs.-Two singular
disturbances occurred Sunday in one OF the
Philadelphia churches. The services of the
Fourth Baptist Church were interrupted,
both morning and afternoon, in consequence
of the baptism of young woman formerly
a member of the Catholic Church. In the
morning, at the time of the baptismal
service, the sister Of the convert interrupted
the solemnities of the occasion by her efforts
to induce her sister to leave the church, but
without avail. In the afternoon the COM
munion ceremony was performed, and the
congregation was again annoyed by the
efforts of the brother of the same Young
woman to prevent her from participating
in the corcmunion service, and even threat
ened to resort to force to get her from the
church. He did not succeed, and the young
woman was quietly removed and taken
to her friends.

ExrRAoRDINARY STRENGTH.

TIE Troy Times of the 9th recounts a
singular trial of strength, which took place
in that city on Saturday evening between
James Madison 'the cast iron man." and
Professor Carl. the " strongest man in
America. The challenge for trial of
strength sent by Carl having been accept
ed, large assembly witnessed the perform
ance:
''Previous to the trial. Prof. Carl gave an
exhibition of magic and ventriloquism, per-
formed his celebrated guitar and drum
solos, balance sixteen chairs upon his chin
and performed other feats calling for an
exercise of strength, which must have
weared him somewhat. Mr.. Madison then
unprecedented an anvil weighing two hum
dred and fourteen pounds upon his breast,
while two men struck upon it with sledges;
held an anvil upon each knee; broke num-
Der of stones with his fist; bent bar of iron
one-fourth of an inch thick by striking it
over his arm, and held an anvil weighing
about two hundred pounds upon each arm,
while men struck upon it with sledges.-
Prof. Carl then appeared, held the anviis
upon his breast; bent the bar of iron almost
double upon his arm held the anvil upon
his arms, etc.. for longer period than Mr.
Madison had done. He then took the large
flint stones which had been rejected b. his
rival, and hammered them to pieces, sig
nalzng his performance by cracking in
two flag stone about large enough to serve
as stepping block for door. After this
he held one of the heavy anvils over his
head for forty-one seconds; lifted sixty
pound weight upon his little finger and
swung it around his head, and held two men
on his hair while he whirled them about,
topfashion. until their feet stuck out at an
angle forty-fve degrees.
Mr.. Madison was then called out by the
audience, and requested to give an account
of himself. He excused himself in the mat
fer of the stones by saying that his rival
was in constant practice, while he had not
broken a stone for year. Being urged to
swing the weight about his head he declin-
ed to do it, ON the score of inability, and as
Professor Carl had held the anvils ON his
knee. In short, he virtually acknowledged
himself whipped man.
