" The lake in which the Island is found, lies in a deep gorge or rotten gulf of high ta ble mountain, equally noted through the sur rounding country for its "huckle berries" and its rattle snakes, and called the Flat Rock. The water of this lake is very deep, and the island is constantly floating. In (act, a number of pines were growing on it at the time of the visit of Mr Wood, some of which were five or six inches in diameter. The surface is covered with the productions peculiar to marshy grounds, and though the soil is so soft that a sharpened pole may. be thrust completely through, yet stray cattle have been discovered upon it at various times. Strictly speaking, it is not an island, but a peninsula, and this will explain the apparent inconsistency contained in the last sentence, However, that the peninsula, or island, whatever the reader may please to term it, floats, and is disconnected trom me ooiiom, is demonstrated from the fact, that the wind ...:n ,.,., i tr ehiiriffe its i?t'tion varvirjff. fwwtrnytr-rrranyo3wfrorH luiPpteceding. vv ere the isthmus, that acts as an anchor, severed, it would undoubtedly float off", with trees for sails, a complete floating island.

In a communication in1 the New Eugland Farmer a few months ago, I endeavored to call public attention to the White Ash. Whether any person had been induced to try experiments with it, I am not informed, but I have extended my inquiries, and obtain ed many important facts. I lately conversed with a Baptist minister who travels much in Virginia and North Car olina. He assured me that many people in these States well knew that the rattle-snakes and mocasin snakes have the utmost dread of the White Ash, and that it will cure those who are bitten by these snakes. He related many farts proving that persons had been cured when the effects of the poison had rendered them helpless, so that others had to apply the remedy. The bark or leaves is chewed and Ihe juice swallowed, and also applied to the wound ; or if there is time, a tea may be made, of the bark or leaves and drank freely, and also used externally. I have obtained other proofs of its efficacy in curing the bite of serpents, aud of its pre venting their biting. I am cow confident that many - in all parti of our country have some knowledge of its virtues ; and it seems surprising that they have not been more re garded by our physicians. In several medi cal works the subject is mentioned ; but I have found no physician or botanist who has devoted much attention to ii. One in Low ell and one in Boston have promised to pre pare medicines from the White Ash, aud to use them when they have an opportunity. I have recently had a rase of poison from ivy. I took a little branch of this valunhle ood, bark, and leaves iuto If a pint of hot wa- I ... n I ... aoout a wine class re was nearly complete : but dose ought to have been repeated after an hour or less. I am satisfied that we can, by this mode, control this species of poison ; but I am not able to say, how it would effect cases of poisom from dogwood. In this and my former communications I have been careful to avoid expressing more confidence in the virtues of the White Ash, than the facts Which have been collected will justify. And, even, if I have erred iu any case, I see not that any can be injured by such experiments as will lead to the whole truth 1 have never heard that any bad quali ties belonged to this tree. I have often swal lowed the ju,ce of it., eave3 and bark after reiT?

VVe relates (o it " Remarkable as this floating island may be, it is scarcely more so than one of a simi lar description in Clinton county, ,in this State. Several years since. Rev. J. W. R Wood, a gentleman of an inquiring turn of The following i. copied from the Tuscaloo sa flagot the Union. Ihe tamiiy ol the Taliaferros is, we believe, numerous Those ettled in Alabama and in Georgia are of Virgijia origin. Georgia once sent a mem ber to Congress ot that name, Benjamin Taliaferro, after whom one of the counties of this state was named. There is now a mem ber of Congress of that name from Virginia. The family in Georgia was respectable , we do not know if any of the descendants are yet living in the state. If we are not mistaken in our recollection, we have read somewhere, that the names of Telfair, Telfer, Taillefer, French, and Taliaferro, look their origin of a celebrated Norman Knight, who possessed a sword so well tempered, that he could cut a bar of iron at one stroke. The surname of Taillefer was bestowed upon him, whirh be came afterwards a family name, and in the course of years corrupted into Telfair. Telfer, Taliaferro, and Tolifcr, as it is pronounced in Georgia and elsewhere. Taliaferro. The pronunciation of this name so different from what is indicated by its orthography, constitutes the strangest ano maly in ortheopy that we have ever met with. Instead of being pronounced as its vowels and syllables would indicate, it is spoken as if written Tol-li-fer. If this be the correct pronunciation of the name, then it takes a wider lepar"re from the orthographical law discovered and promulgated by the celebrated Jack Downing, and which the Major de clared to be the natural way of spelling, than any other combination of syllables in any language- Many ludicrous mistakes have happened from the anomalous pronunciation of this word, one of which we recently heard, and will tell our readers. A certain deputy Marshal of Alabama, not long since had a writ placed in his bands for service, on a geutlemnn bearing this name. The session of the District Court was close at hand, and the time in which service could be legally made had almost elapsed. It became neces sary, therefore, "if 'twere done at all, it were done quickly." The distance lo the man's residence was about twelve miles, the rain was falling in torrents. Receiving the ne cessary directions, our Marshal started on his errand, and after getting thoroughly soak ed, he at length came to the house, and en quired in a tone of official authority, if Mr Ta-li-a-ferro lived there. "No, sir," was the prompt reply. "Who docs live here?" again interrogated the Marshal. "Mr To-li-fer," answered the person addressed. "He is not the man I wish to see," replied the Marshal, and putting spurs to his horse he galloped back to the lawyer's office to report Mr Ta-li-a-ferro as non est inventus. "Was he not at home?" inquired the lawyer. "I coul l not find him home," responded the Marshall. "Did you follow the directions I gave you?" asked the lawyer. "Yes, sir," answered the Marshal, "and found a house there ; but they told me that Mr Ta-li-a-ferro did not live there, but a Mr Tol-li-fer." "Mr D !!" exclaimed the lawyer, "go back and serve your writ: they are both the same name." The Marshal scratched the new lesson in spelling into his head so deep that he has not forgotteu, and never will forget it. He was happily caved a second soaking by meeting Mr Taliaferro in the street. From tlie N. Y. Herald. SMUGGLING ON THE FRONTIER. In relation to this subject, we find the fol lowing article in a late Montreal paper: "It's an ill wind that blows nobodt good. The manufacturers of the United States have humbugged the General Govern ment into a high tariff on foreign merchan dise. The consequence is, that smuggling into the U. States from the Provinces is al ready in a flourishing coudition. From Eastport to Port Sarnia is a long distance. The republican custom-house officers can no more stop smuggling along that extensive frontier, if there be high duties to encourage it, than a man can hold water in his fist. When will men learn wisdom? Man pro poses, and nature disposes. Men will per sist in making laws to control nature, and yet they might as well try to overcome the law of gravitation, and upset the solar system. Establishments will be formed along the whole frontier, before 1843 is out, to introduce British goods into the States; and all the vigi lance of the republican officers will not stop it. Besides, the officers themselves are venal. The smuggler wtH-bribe them; and such common fellows as custom-house sharks usually are, are always open to a bribe. They have all India-rubber consciences. They will stretch to the ciack o' doom. Smuggling will put money into the Canadian purse.

His shrewd appearance, quick grey eye, and sharp features bespeak his "nation" and nativity. Ho has come here either to dispose of soms novel "uolion," or to drive a trade during the winter. What ever may have been his stock in trsde, or the contents of his purse, when he lauded on the levee, we are strongly inclined to believe that when the season for closing his books comes round, both the debt side of Cash, and the credit side of Profit and Loss account will be heavier than at the commencement of busi ness. The clerks from northern cities are another class easily recognized among the late addi tions to our population. Attracted by golden hopes and large salaries, they come on from Philadelphia, New York, Boston, &e. They are active looking and intelligent, and pique themselves as much on their ability at making out an invoice, posting an entry, and draw ing up an account current, as Sir Isaac Newton did on his discovery of the laws of gravitation. Some of them many of them, we hope will find profitable employment, but how large a proportion of them, after pre senting a letter of introduction here, soliciting the influence of a friend there, and seeking for a situation every where, wiil realize nothing but baffled hopes heart-sicken iug disap pointment 1 The northern mechanic loo, forms an IS Kln?! -Ml rfii.it 1 ' mucn grieved.

Then there are Ihe hundreds of poor, in dustrious Irish females, who come here lo seek service in our large hotels and elsewhere. They are generally a well behaved class, and give much satisfaction wherever they are em ployed. The doors of certain dens, mis called "Intelligence" offices, are beseiged with them every day, where they pay a bonus out of their slender means for information which, iu ninety-nine cases out of one hundred, a incunts to nothing. Poor creatures! hum ble as their avocation is, they verv often suffer severely here for Ihe want of employment. There are hundreds of ethers to classify whom would be a work too tedious who come to spend the wiuter in New Orleans ; some of them resolved to make a living here by their industry, some by their profession, some by humbuggery, and some by rascality. fX?-Our neighbor of the Register says, in his paper of yesterday, lhat the returns from New Yotk "do not justify an opinion as to how this State is gone, though the prospect is rather in favor of the Locos." Really it is a pity the editor cannot get somebody to help him make up his mind as to how New York is gone. But no matter what happens, we suppose Ihe editor will still cling to this old position, that the "whig" party was "never in a better or sounder condition," although it Is squabbled and delapsed ; and that the celebra ted Coon, though defunct and skinned, is ab solutely as pert and lively as a pig with his nose in a snuff bladder.
