Any of our readers afflicted with Scrofula or Scro- fuous complaints, will do we'll to read the remarks in our advertising columns respecting it. But little of the nature of this disorder has been known by the people, and the clear exposition of it there given, will prove acceptable and useful We have long admired the searching and able manner in which Dr. AVER treats every subject he touches whatever has his attention at all, has great deal of it; he masters what he undertakes, and no one who has a particle of feeling for his afflicted fellow man, look with indifference upon his labors for the sick. Read what he says of Scrofula, and see in how few words and how clearly he tells more than we all have known of this insidious and fatal maiady.

THE OBERLIN SLAVE CAsEs-A new complication has arisen in the trials of the persons accused under the fugitive slave law for aiding the rescue and es cape of certain slaves at Oberlin, Ohio. The two kidnappers from Kentucky were summoned by the s. Court, now in session in Cleveland, as witess- es. but on Wednesday, while in attendance ut Cleye- land, they were arrested on warrant issued by the Lorain county court of common pleas on an indict- ment for kidnapping. The U. s. Marshal then step ped forward and showed bench warrant by which they were held as witnesses. The Lorain county officers stated that the arrest was naae suhiect to the prior claim of the U S. court, and they only asked that the men might be delivered to them when released by the marshall The Judge declared the arrest made by the Lorain officers con tempt of his court, fur which the officers were liable to committed. but he did not choose to 20 to that length in vintcation of the dignity of his court. No further action was had but this matter will evidently tend to complicats the case still fur ther and if the Ohio courts get the kdnappers within their jurisdiction there will bs | return watch played.
 These cases are to be taken before tho Supreme Court of the State, and the conflict between Stafe laws and the fugitive slave enactment will then be pressed to an issue. We presume Ohio will follow the example of Wisconsin, and protect the rights of her citizens The day has gone by when this odious law can be executed in the free States.

THE SLAVE TRADE.-The New York Journal of Commerce copies an advertisement from Missis- sippi paper, in which eighteen gentlemen in the town of Enterprise in that State, offer to sp-own- CTS and others, the sum of $500 per head for 1000 native Africans, tween the ages of If and 20 of sexes equal, to be delivered at any port between Florida and Texas or ss50 each, if ifde;ivcred at the said town of Enterprise The price offered is rath CT low, good negroes are now worth, in any of the Southern States, from 1000 to 1900 dollars. A lot of likely fellows from Africa might not at first be as valuable as those from Maryland or Virginia, but ought nevertheless to bring five six hundred dollars each, and the business of importing them may not be very profitable even at that price, when the risks and dangers are taken into the account. The advertisers mention that of their objects in encouraging the importation is ito extend the privileges of becoming emi-civilized to other of Africa's degraded race, by mingling at least like number with the four millions now in this country. Good logic certainly. if Slavery is benefcent in stitutiun.

LIrCHFIE1D COUNTY seems determined to have her share of special legislation, this spring. The first topic is that of the dicson e te Contv The spring ing up of numerous manufacturing villages and the construction of the two railways that run through her eastern and western boundaries, have drawn the bulk of business away from Litchfeld, the shire town, which was very nearly the centre of the old farming population of the county. People that travel scores of miles railways dislike to take stages for four miles, the distance of Litchfed from the Naugatuck road, and therefore demand change.
 Making another shire town besides the present does not satisfy. The Naugatuck and Housatonic valleys will claim it. Whichever is selected will disaect the other for Ltchield would be easier of access than the other valley. Another proposition is to select two towns in each valley, for shire towns. To this plan there is the same objection. The inhabitants of each valley would alternately. have too far to go to att end to lawsuits.
 The proposition then remains to divide the coun- ty. The plan is to draw line north and south through the county, and separate the two valleys, whose interests and associations are 50 distinct The eastern county would include Colebrook, Barkham- sted. Winchester, Torrington, Litchfeld. Harwin- ton, Plymouth. and perhaps Hartland from Hart ford County. The western would include Salisbury, Canaan, North Canaan, sharon, Cornwall. Warren. Washington, Kent, Roxbury, New Milford and Bridgewater. The location of Norfolk, Goshen Woodbury and Bethlem, would be uncertain. This is the natural division, following the line of the water shed, but it would divide the county uncaual ly. <
 The next topic of discussion, the settlement of which will probably upset the whole plan. would he where shall be located the shire towns In the western county ito be called Housatonic County New Milford and Falls Village would claim the shire town-one about as far too south the other would be too far north. Kent Plains would be about cen tral, and Pigtail more central still storm would soon gather. In the eastern county (to retain the old name) Wolcottrille and Plymoath Hollow would put in their claim to compete with Winsted, though the latter is becoming of the most enterprising prosperous and consequential villages of the county There would be no end of strife

MR. EDITOR As an etfort--an unsuccessful one, trust is to be made to divide Litchfeld County, enclose you an Extract from President Dwight's ago, which contains suggestions worthy of the con sidcraton of those who will bc called upon to act on this subject. SHARON. |" Formerly Connecticut was divided into six Counties. The distribution into eight was injudi- cious, as well as unnecessary. Great Counties have sense of importance and dignity, which is emi- nenty useful. It prompts to honorable and beneti- clal conduct and prevents much of that which is
 little, degrading, and of course mischevous. The same things true 'nuatis muandis of sHbdivided Townships and Parishes. Where men are mpa- tieDt to become Judges, Shers, and County Clerks, to be Representatives, Select-men, even Parish however, be pushed so earnestly, and long, as in | the end to be accomplished This spirit of subdi- vision has produced, and is still producing. unhap- py consequences in the state of society in New England. Offices are multiplied to q useless de- gree, and byond the ability of the country to fill l these subdivisions have been made, becomes pow l erful reason for making more. He, who voted for the last, claims the suffrage of him. who has been profted by that vote, in his own favour. In this manner silly and deplorable ambition becomes a source of multiplied mischeS to the community. Small parishes are unable without serious incon- venicnce, to keep their Churches in repair and sup port their ministers Small towns are often obi ged to send diminutive Representatives. because they can send no other Small Counties have often very imperfect courts, because they have no mate rials, out of which to constitute better Represen- tatives, also, in this manner multiplied beyond every rational limit In most of the New-England States the number is twice, and in Massachusetts. at least three times, as great either experience, | or common sense. would justify.
