Indeed, it was not knownjtp ex ist in this country in its native state ;! but is mostly contained in the argent ferous lead ores, from which it was sometimes extracted. Indeed it is generallv from ores; the annual product in Great lead cunosity.and ntiJ Some by the tain, bit the rest of thedaf, to dry our baggage and take some astrononiicl observations. The stream va9 about forty' feet wide, and . two or three deep, with clear water and a full swift current, over a sandy bejel. - It -was timbered with a growth of low bushy and dense willows, among which were -little verdant spots, which gave our animals fine gfai is, and where I found a number of interesting pl.ints. " Among the neighboring liills l noliced filgments of granite containing magnetic ironf Longitude of the camp was 109 degrees 37 Jrrin. 59 sec.,' and latitute 42 degrees 27 min;34 sec.

The scenery become hourly f more interesting and grand, and the view bore X-is truly, magnificent ; but, nritam from these ores, is about 110,000 lbs, valued at some 14 or 815,000. It seems, however, from an article in tne last number of Hunt's Merchants' Magazine, that the. Washington Mining Company, incorporated by theAssembly ofl Portb Carolina in 1839, have been operating at the mines discovered a short time! previ ous in Davidson county, with' 'considera ble success. The Washington rrjirie, it seems, is situated about eighty milsfrom Raleigh, the capital of the State, and the present terminus of the great chain of rajl-road from the North. From Decem ber 1843, to' December 1814, silver! had been extracted from the ore to the value of 624,000, and of-gold 87,253. This a mount of ore has produced from about 160,000 lbs. of lead, making an average produce of over 240 ounces of silver to the ton, 4000 lbs of lead. From tle 'com mencement of the mining operations up to November IsC 1842, a period of 27 montns, tne actual product was 2tMH pigs of argentiferous lead, yielding silver and gold to the amount of 813.288, this being the nett value after deducting the charges of the United States Mint for separating the 'gold from' the silver, and alloy!, requi site to reduce it to the standard cpinage. From the 13th of October, 1843, tol the 1st of October; 1844, the produce of thef Wash ington mine has been 840,379,is follows : Amount of silver received, missionaries ttrhong-thersav these have been washed away thefercat e r I ho mbe rare ! still ?ery legible, "i Ijlie pofeition, of this Vock is in longitude 107 deWeJ5fi minutes, latitude 42 gttes 29 min.T3G sdc." . i ; - - " MVe had iqiight : ifo shelter froinlhfr rain, hich commencipd, wilh squalls of vvind. about ;simet.

Taylor, Esq., of delphia,made a report of these (which is embodied iu the article in Magazine.) in which it is stated the forty feet level, the yield of the-ore, when dressed, was about 5fJ per elent. of lead, and from 20 to 120 ounces of silver to the, ton of lead. The value of jthe sil ver varied from 81 80 to 82 80 pet ounce, " ' '.at. .a its price being enhanced by tlie large pro portion of gold found in combination wilh it at this depth. - ( j ; At the sixty feet level, the ore increas ed in richness, but was irregular i in its value. At its best and most remarkable point, it yielded as much as 5,0C0j ounces to the ton. Such points were however few and small, forming exceptiotls to the prevailing richness of the lode. Ilhe gen eral average is stated to be 123 ohncesof silver to the ton of metal. Here Ithe sul- phuret of lead, or galena, was frst met with in small quantities ; but the j bulk of the ore continued similar to the' forty feet level, being a carbonate of lead, with the exception of the proportion of golu which . i "t I 1 . a J ! gradually uiminisneu, out. was recovereu again at the 100 leet level. Arriving at the hundred feet leyel, the galena predominated ; but, in o Doctors : Comer and Anderson, of this County, were recently called to see Miss .(it is tfnnccessary to name the lady,) living in the South part of, Caswell, who they found under great nervous debility, and in a mesmeric state.- .The patient slept a great deal- she. seemed ? to have fallen a victim to strong lethargic spellst rioyrc6rningi now going but her spells of repose were iengthy,while she found t impossible to keep awake but a very Miurt imie, comparatively. . v nen asieep she was always in a chiirvoyic state. On visiting her and finding her asleep to all intents And purposes the two attending physicians tested -her.clairroyic. by blind folding her so that she could not possibly " sink a wink," even though she were not asleep. Prom jthis experiment grew the following results: Dr Comer gave patient's sister a pbeket knife, to present her, with the inquiry, Myhoser knife is it?"; The knife was put in the patient's hand and the question asked, when she answered, " Dr. Corner's.w Patient had not seen Dr. Comer nor his knife. Dr. Cjhen slipt a pen knife bf his i,n the sister's hand, who .put it in the hand of the patient, and ask ed " whose knife is this V (DrJ Anderson present.) j Patient passed the knife to her nose, smelt of it, and replied, " this, too, is Dr. Comer s knife. Dr. Anderson acci dentally spied patient's mother at a dis tance going to the spring asked patient as to the whereabouts of her mother? She replied, " going to the spring. The mother was seen returning from the spring with a pail of j water on her head and a jng of milk in pne hand. Patient was a gain interrogated about her mother, and she minutely described her returning from the spring told about the vessel of water on her mother's head, the jug of milk, and in which hand she held it. She was ask ed where the horses of doctors C. and A. were? Patient replied that her father had put them in the stables, and then told the particular ;srat)le in which each man's horse had been put. Patient was then asked when it'had rained at Dr. Comer's ? (Dr. C. lives a long distance from patient, and had not been home for several days, moreover he was not aware that it had rained at his house the day before.) Her reply was " yesterday." Patient was call ed on to say when it had rained at Doct. Anderson's; she answered, "the same time it rained at Dr. Comer's." She was hasked to. state at which of the two places fell the most rain ? Her reply was, that " it rained vefy little at Dr. Comer's, but a great deal at Dr. Anderson's." All this was found to be precisely as she stated. Patient bad no knowledge, not the least idea, of any thing she said, or of the pre sence of the pbysicians while she reposed, when she afterwards awoke from her sleep, and denied having held any conver sation. Various other questions were ask ed the patient, and all that related to any thing that had taken place, or then in pro cess of occurrence, she answered and told about it with the greatest accuracy. . Pa tient couldn't tell about the future knew nothing about the occurrences behind the curtain of Time to come. -ANECDOTE OF MR. PROFFIT. ;Thc following aiiv-cuole of T-Ir.'

If Miss America be indeed, as she pretends, a descendant of the renowned Vespuc- cius, she is playing a role that exhibits as little respect for her 'renowned ancestry, as for the many fashionable and distin guished people in this country who feast ed and followed her, a few years since. In addition to the foregoing, we find the following notice of the Vespucci family, who were visited, by Mr. Lester, late Con sul to Genoa." From this it would seem that the lady referred to is an old sinner. The Vespucci family are poor. Two daughters areengaged in teaching school, while the son, the only lineal male de scendant, is employed in the Treasury De partment of the government, at a salary less than a hundred dollars. The Duke of Tuscany, however, supplies the wants of the family from his own pocket. Mr. L. was the first American that trad ever called on the family, and they were deep ly affected by the compliment, as they had been before mortified at the neglect of our Countrymen. They are deeply chagrined at the conduct of their sister, who after having been the mistress of some dozen men, had the impudence to ask our gov ernment for a grant of land to herself ras the only descendant of the V espucci fam- uy." z , ' .... So are we ever destined to be humbug ged, in ibis country, until our ridiculous mania for everything foreign shall be ful ly cured. We recollect very well the fi gure this woman cut, through two seasons at Washington ; how flattered by the men, how envied by the women, how feasted by the rich, how talked about by the poor, how courted by cabinets, how gallanted by Senators, how lionized by all. ' She was, and we suppose, is still, beautiful in person, accomplished in mind, and engag ing in manners. She had the 'address to push her interests-almost to the success ful point, but' was deterred by the inter position of one of those lucky accidents in legislation which often defeat the best laid plans of the kind. We have reason, in deed, to congratulate ourselves, in this case, that such obstacles do sometimes su pervene. It would not be a very credita ble record in our annals that we had been bejuggled out of a large grant of the na tional domain, by the meretricious arts' of " the mistress of a hundred men." If this title, at the time Mr. Lester was every member friend or foe, that rose. oh the iloor. v 1 his cacoethes loquaiai was so -strong a passion, that his attention was not confined to public measures and gen eral laws but descended to eyefy private act or local bill brought before t he house; not a propositions to remove the scat of- justice oc change the lines of a country, ; -' to appropriate d he local sckooL fund to cbangc or establish an election precinct, to incorporate a-.village pr 'cstrainTgeeso . and hogs from running. atcJarge-lnt any town or illage in the StateVcbuld be rnado in-'fheIIiseby but4 Mr, .
