St. adman," lies at McFadden's ferry, two
miles from town. Tomorrow she will go
up the river on an excursion. The Pilot
reports an easy run, and says the river, il

of cotton aboard. He thinks the river
could be cleaned at small experg'.

A "lorsct Liyer.''

Some medical students in one OF
the colleges of this city, dissecting a
female subject few days ago, found
what is called in doctors parlance a
corset liver" When tight lacing
has been practiced through several
wears, permanent dent or hollow is
produced in the liver, which may be
seen very plainly after the woman is
dead and her liver dissected out
This kind of liver occurs so frequent
ly in women that physicians have
given it the name of "corset liver"
In the subject mentioned the hollow
in the liver was large enough for the
wrist of growing man to be laid in
it. Young ladies who don't want
their livers put into the newspapers
and made an awful example of after
they are dead, would better take

Ne have nat seen a draft of the
hill Senator Davis Of this State pro.
poses to introduce into the body OF
Which he is q member, nor do we
know that such bill has been actu-
ally prepared, but we see 1t in the

patches, that, after giving much at.
teution to the subject, the Senator
has concluded 10 address himself. to
the preparation Of plan to encfnlr'
age the organization Of the militia
Of the State through the aid Of the
government. He has communicated
Ills We've to q Ypmber Of Senator'S
and members, and End that they
make very favorable impression,
Senator Davis proceeds on the idea,
and in this he is sustained By very
MANY, that the true way to insure
domestic peace and tranquility is
not to increase the regular army, but
to provide an efficient nlilitia. This
il also the view Of anumber Of mem
beers Of the House, who advocate an
army reduction. II is held that the
regular army in time of peace should
be brought down to the lowest stand
ard consistent with the proper care
OF the public works, Qualifications,
&C., and the necessities of frontier
duty. Then let the general govern
ment supply arms, ammunition, &c,
to the several States, and also make
annual appropriations in money to
aid them in putting their militia on
an efficient footing both rs regards
personal, material and esprit du
corps. These are propositions which
will be submitted for the considera-
ton of Congress, and they are likely
to meet with>popular approval AS
the case now stands we believe the
general government distributes a
Certain quality of arms and ammu'
milton among the States every year,
and we presume that it is this dis
tribution which Senator Davis pro,
poses to increase. As be would
strengthen. the militia Of the States
which constitutes the true defense of
the people, he would, in like proper
