The undersigned ,desirous of acquainting those who
NAV be unfortunate enough be similarly afflicted,
where "A permanent relief of their sulerngs may be
obtained feels it his duty to thus publicly express his
permanent recovery of his health Borne down by
the distressing symptoms incident to the vicious prac
tice of uncomfortable passion in youth; depressed in
body and mind, unable to perform even the most tr-
fling duty imposed upon the daily avocations of life,
sought the advice of many physicians, who at first
garded my disease as of tring Importance; but, alas!
after few weeks, and in several instances months, of
theirtreatment, found to my unuterable horror that
instead of relief my symptoms became more alarming
in their torture and being told by that my disease
being principally confined to the brain, medicines
would be of little consequence, despared OF
gaining my health strength and energy and, as last
resort and with but faint hope, called upon DR..
Czapkay, who, after examining my case, prescribed
some medicine which almost instantly relieved me of
the dull pain and dizziness in my head. Encouraged
by the result, resolved to place myself Immediately
under his care and by strict obedience to all his di-
rections and advice, my head became clear, my ideas
collected, the constant pain in my back and groins,
the weakness of my limbs, the nervous reaction OF my
whole body the slightest alarm or excitement; the
misanthropy and evil forebodngs the self-distrust

Useful Receipts.

MATER -PRooF CLOTH FOR SOLDIERS OvEr-
CoATs.-Twenty thousands tunics rendered
waterproof and yet porous, were served out
to the French army during the late war with
Russia. They were prepared after tho fol-
lowing recipe:--
Take pounds and ounces of alum, and
dissolve it in 10 gallons Of water; in like
manner dissolve the same quantity of sugar
of lead in similar quantity Of water, and
mix the two together. They form precip-
tate OF the sulphate Of lead. The clear H.
quor is now withdrawn. and the cloth i'm
mcrsed for one hour ia the solution, when it
is taken out, dried in the shade, washed in
cieon water and dIied again.
This preparation enables the cloth to re-
pei water, like the feathers of aducks back
and yet allows the perspiration to pass some
what freely through it, which is not the case
with ,,utta percha or lndia-rubbcr cloth
INoRDIxATE THIHsr.--To those who have
strong desire to driul; great quantities of
water in summer writer gives the following
advice -
Take the twig of birch, elm or other
tree having a pleasant taste and cut it into
pieces abort half an inch in length EACH
Keep one Of these in the mouth while trav-
elling or working in the sun for about all
hour, throw it away and supply its place
with another. and thus continue during the
warmest hours Of the day. BY following
this advice, a person will feel no more desire
to drink in warm than cool weather.
SrMpLE CURE FOR SORE THRoAr.--The-
editor Of the Farmer aud Gardener states
that a gargle Of salt and water has com, .te-
ly cured him OF sore throat and hacking
cough, from which he bad been suffering for
many years past.
LAMP LluHTERs.-A subscriber to the
American Agriculturist says
.UninjureJ straws of rye oats and wheat,
cut in lengths Of abuutsix inches, are valu-
able for lighting candles or lamps. Placed
in glass or other small weasel. OH the man
tel or shelf they are quite ornamental. The
above may DO valuable in districts where

Important Arrest of PiratcS.-Thc
"French Lady" Caught at Last.
BALTIMORE. Monday. ,Julv 3 Is

BALTIMORE, Monday, July 8, 1861.
Lieut.. Carmichael of Provost Marshal
kenly's police went down the river in brig
and boarded the steamer Mary Washington
to arrest man named Ncill Green who was
charged with being engaged in the riot on the
10Th of april, who it was thought would
come on board at the patuxcnt.
On coming up the river re ascertared
that Capt Thomas of st. Mary's County,
who took command of the st. Nicholos and
headed the pirates, was also on board with I
OF his confederates, their objec: it is supposed
being to seize another steamer in similar
manner. Lieut.. Carmichael, on getting a.
breast Fort McHenry. ordered the captain to
stop at the wharf, where he made known the
fact to Gen. Banks; who ordered company
OF Massachusetts troops to arrest all on board
Seven of the pirates were found, but Capt.
Thomas had concealed himself, and after an
hours Search was found hid in large bu-
reau drawer in the ladies cabin.
1t will be remembered that lie went a.
beard the st. Nicholas disguised as French
lady. They were all detained at the Fort
with several Witnesses who were on board
the st. Nicholas at the time of seizure, in
cludng her captain and engineers.
There is n tremendous excitement in town
about the arrest OF Captain or Colonel Rich
ard Thomas, the French lady who captured
the steamer St. Nicholas He is well known
here, and has many friends among the first
families in the city.
Not having even letters of marquc from
President Davis for his protection, he is re-
garded in no other light than as pirate
per Sc, and will be so treated by Gen.
Banks. Thomas declared on his arrival at
Fort Mcllcnry that he was a Colonel, and
expected to be treated as such by beliserents.

Riflcd Cannon and IccbergS.

The English screw steam frigate Mer,
sey, Capt. II. Caldwell, has reached
Halifax. When approaching the Banks
of Newfoundland, Capt Caldwell fell in
with some icebergs, aud thought it would
be interesting to experiment on them
with riflcd cannon. Accordingly an
Armstrong shell was fired at small ice
berg about one hundred and fifty feet
high from the distance of four and u
half miles. Such was the effect that II
block of ice, judged to be about one
hundred tons, fell from the summit.
This large weight falling from the
top of the berg, rem wed the centre of
gravity which caused the whole fabrick
to fall over and rock to and fro. 1t was
considered a most satisfactory test of the
vast range and destructivencss of these
missiles Further trials were made with
other proieciies supplied to the navy.

Sharpnell's and time fuse shell, molten

vessel being lin flames soon after she is

BrOWnsOn on the Rebel Leaders.

In the last number of Brownson' s
Quarterly, the editor has an article on
the present war, abounding throughout
in that clearness and energy of state
ment for which he is justly famed.
For thirty years or more, the South
have been taught TO regard the North as
their enemies, and made to believe that
they could not live in peace with us (;
they have been taught that we of the
Free States are mere money makers,
destitute of any high moral or religious
principle, selfish, calculating, cold hear
ted aud worse than all, mere towards
Their teaching has been bad, and has
led them into grave miatakes. For those
who have nsed them, we have no ex-
cuse, no paliation to offer, not word in
extenuation Of their offence to utter. -
They knew better; and have sinned a.
gairst light and knowledge. For them
we have no mercy let them meet, as
they deserve, the traitors doom, not be-
cause they are Southern men, or slave
holders, but because they are conspira-
tors and rebels, bent or destroying the
Government under which they were
born to which they owe allegiance, and
which, with all its faults of administra-
ton, is the freest and best Government
ever instituted by man, and which from
its foundation has been, with that of
Great Britain, the hope of the friends of
liberty throughout the world. 1t is not
against dcspot, or tyrant, or a foreign
denomination that they have conspired,
but against their own legitimate Govern
ment, whose only defect. if defect it
have, is that it claims TOO little power
for itself. and leaves 100 much freedom
to the citizen. The American citizen
that seeks'to overthrow the American
Government is not only n traitor, but n
libcrticide, a dis-humanized monster.

A Compliment to the North.

The Savannah Republican says: In
times of great public excitement great
many stories are invented in both Sec
tions with the view of adding to the
public irritation. OF this class is the
statement, generally believed, that it is
unsafe for C citizen of the Confederate
States to put bis feet on the soil of the
enemy. This is not true OF course it
is advisable and best in times like these
for Southern men to remain at home, but
in eases where their families are at the
North, and they desire to bring them
home, or in any urgent necessity, we
have no doubt of their ability to 20 and
return with perfect safety The only
condition is, attend to your own bust
ness. and leave the affairs of others a.
lone. We know number of gentle
men of this State, some of them Of this
city. who have recently gone North and
returned without the slightest molesta-
ton. We yesterday saw letter from a
resident of Savannah now IN New York
in which he expresses his astonishment
at the respect with which he is every
where treated, after all the bloodthirsty
stories he had read in the newspapers

laws of the United States, and must there
fore be respected and enforced in its judi
cial tribunals. Undoubtedly, if the pres
ident, in exercising this power, shall
fall into error or invade the rights of the
people of the State, it would be in the
power of Congress to apply the proper
remedy. But the Courts must adminis-
ter the law as they find it. The remain
ing question is, whether the defendants,
acting under military orders issued under
the authority of the Government, were
justified in breaking and entering the
plaintiffs house? In relation to the act
of the legislature declaring martial law,
it is not necessary in the case before us
to enquire to what extent nor under what
circumstances that power may be exer-
cised by State. Unquestionably n
military government, established at the
permanent government of State, would
not be Republican Government, and it
would be the duty OF Congress to over
throw it. Unquestionably a State may
use its military power to put down arm
ed Instructions too strong to bo control
led by the civil authority. The power
is essential to the existence Of every Govern
ment; essential to the preservation of order
aud free institutions; and is as necessary to
the States of this Union as to any other Gov
ernmcnt. The State itself must dcterm me
what degree of force the crisis demands. -
And if tho Government of Rhode Island
deemed the armed opposition so formidable
and so ramifed throughout her State as to
require the use of its military force and the
declaration Of martial law, we see no ground
upon which this Court can question its au-
thority. 1t was a state of war, and the es-
tablished Government resorted to the rights
and usages of war to maintpin itself, and to
overcome the unlawful opposition. And in
that state of things the officers engaged in its
military service might lawfully arrest any
one, who from the information before them
they had reasonable grounds to believe was
engaged in the nsurrection, and might or
der house to be forcibly entered and search
ed when there were reasonable grounds for
supposng he might be there concealed -
Without the power to do this, martial law
and the military array of the Government
would be mere parade, and rather encourage
attack than repel it. No more force, how
ever, can be used than is necessary to accom-
plish the object. Baltin'ore American.
