which have been driven bv two Breast Wheels,
each 12 feet long by 13 diameter, under, a head
ami fall of about II feet, but- the location being
subject tn back wafer, thess- wheels did not work
to advantage. Air Stanbrouh having great con
fidence in bis Wheel, not only that it would ob
viate the difficulty with back water, but he was
willing io guarantee that it would drive all the
machinery and save one ibirdthe water then used ;
and having executed to the company a bend in
S J.oO't for that purpose.it was determine i to let
him mike the trial, which I am happy to say has
resulted verv satisfactorily, and that lie has fairly

.EVERY one who is afflicted, should be anxious
to obtain thai remedy which ofl'-rs the be si, quick
est, and safest cure, no mailer from what source

proprietor, in justice lo the public and himself,
feels called upon to state, honrstlv, a few facts,
which will establish HOUSE'S INDIAN TONIC
lo be the best remedy for .CHILLS or Aue and
Fever, now known. Fact 1st The article is con
venient and pleasant to take is refined from all
gross particles, which render other preparations
so inuddv, nauseous, and disagreeable to thetasu-;
and it the directions he followi d,vv ill core anycase,
toa mathematical certainty, in from three to five

its action upon the I vtr and oth- rorgans concern
ed in forming if, the bile is regulated, the morbid
action induced by the cause of the disease is des
troyed fevei ailaytd and it will be found a
power'ul agent in assisting to remove levers gener

A respectable gentleman called to our effice, as he
said, to inform us that he had been afflicted for
fifteen years with Rheumatism or Gout, and oc
casionally with Tic Douloureux ; that he has been
frrrtuently confined to his room for months toge'h
er.and often suffered the most intense and exciu
ciating pains, but that lately 4ie had been using
Jayne's Alterative, horn which he found the most
signal and unexpected relief. Spirit of the limes.
Life ! Life ! ! Life ! ! " AH that a man
hath will he give for his life," so we find recorded
in the most ancient and best of books, but as we
see thousands dying around us with Consumption,
Croup, Cough, Asthma, Bronchitis, Spilling
blood and other Tulmonary affec tions, we are led
to doubt the correctness of the s hove assertions

commended as a universal " cure al ," have never
theless proved superior to every thing ol the kind,
especially in Lier Complaint and Dyspepsia ; and
when used in conjunction w ith his Tonic Vermi

hundred, of fleeting a permanent cure.

SUPER NATURALISM of NEW ENG
LAND. The follow ing Is an extract from a
work with ihe above title, recently written by
John G. VVhittiet :
It h is been said with far more poetry than
Huth that
" The last lingering fiction of the brain,
The Church yard ghost, is laid to ieM again."
There is a lui king belief in nearly all minds
that there may be some truth in the ide of
departed spit its revisiting their earthly friends
and places familiar to them while in this life. I
am by 110 means disposed t enter nrgumrnt
in behalf of thi- belief. ' Il does not, however,
lack greater and better namca than mine 111
its suppoit. For five thousand years tho entire
human family have givuo it credence. It was a
patt of the wild faith of ihe Scandinavian
worshippers of Odin. Il gave a niournlul
beauty to the battle songs of the old Erse and
Gaelic haids. It shook the stout heail of the
ancient Roman. It blended with all the wild
and extravagant religious of the East. How
loin hing is that death scene of Cvrus as told,
y Xenophon, when ihe monarch summoned
his chiidieu about him entreating them, dying,
to love one another, and ! lemernber that their
father's ghost would he al Iheii side, lo nj..iee
with their rejoicing, &soi row whli their ormw.
All nnliolis, all ages, as Cicero justly affirms,
hive giveu credit lo ihis ho! doctriue ; and
this alone, Dr Johnsn argues coufiuris it
The DocTur himself believed in ihe ghit of
Cockkiue. Luther saw, talked and fought with
spirits. Swedefibcrg made them his f.itniliai
acqu liutances. Coletidge and his frieDd, the
Apostle of the Unknown tongues were spec
treseets. Against as much authmity shall we
urpe the common sense view of the subject,
that ihe apparition of n disembodied spirit t
the .sensual o-gatts of sight, hearing and touch
is a solecism jli philosophy, a .-nipc-i veisiou of
all knowu laws of matte and mind ? What
will that avail with the man who has actu illy
seen a gho.-t, wiih grave clothes tuid all !
Fact befoie philosophy always. If the mail is
cet'aiu he has seen Ihe thi no, there is an end
lo ihe matter.'11 Seeing, as the old adage has it
is believing. "Disbelief under such circum
stances, would justly subject him to ihe charge;
which pious father Baxter brought agaiust
those who doubted in lelatiou to Cotton
Mather's witches 11 lie must be an obstinate
Sadducee who questions; it."
To the persons who are subjected lo
these illusions, the phantoms are real enough
pictutes born wilhiu protected outward by the
f'otce of imagination, lhat tyrant of the mind,
en-laving ihe sen-es which weie intended for
its guard agaiust enor, and making even thei'
apparently natural action the medium of false
hood. Most readcis will remember the ac
count which about a year ag, circulated
Ih rough all ihe newspapers, ol a spectre seeo
iu Wariier, N. H., two men while watching
by ihe bedside of a dyiug ueighbor. A red
uuuatural light tilled the loom a si 1 a tiger
suddeuly stood beside them, and fixed his eyes
upou the dying man, who hiuuk beneath the
ghasiiy sciutioy. On the disappearance ot
the spectre, the sick man made au effort to
speak, and in broken wotds confessed that
mauy years before he h id aided in the murder
of a man whose spectral image had just left
the room This slatemen', if I recollect right
ly was made under oath. Il is prope, how
ever, to mention; that it has beeu intimated
that the spiiit seen on the occasion was none
other than one of Deacon Giles's spirits of
the distillery one of those bottle imps which
plays as fantastic tricks with those who uncork
them as Le Diable Boitcux of the old French
novelist did with the student of Salainauca-
Guilt or remorse for injuries inflicted upou
those whose forgiveness can uot be known,
I aud whose power ol retaliation iu their uew

condition can uot be estimated, is the piolifto
mother of upectral anooyaucea. Whomso
ever we have injuied, however despicable aud
weak while liviug, becomes f.mnidablo by
death. I have noticed iu our thrifty moucy
loving community, that there is a common
notion that the di-posal of an estate contrary
to the knowu wishes of the testator is tho
most potent spell of ail rubers for raising a
Yankee ghost. Among the many ancedutes
which coiroborate this opinion, I must cou
tent mvself with citing one, the sceue of
which happens to be in au adjoining town.
Some years ago, an elderly woman, famili
arly known as' Aunt Morse,' died, leaving
a baudsnme little property. No will was
found, although it was understood before bar
decease lhat such a document was in the
bauds of Squiro S., oue of her neighbors.
One cold winter evening. Mime weeks after
her departtne, Squire S. sat in his pat lor look
ing over his papers, when hearing some ouo
cough i:i a familiar way, bo looked up, and
saw bcftue him little crooked old woman iu
nn oil uut colored woollen frock, blue and
white low and linen ap-on, and striped blanket,
leaning her j-hurp pinched face 011 one hand,
while the other supported a short black tobac
co pipe, at which she wns puffing iu ihe most
vehement and spiteful maimer conceivuhle.
The Squire was a mat) of some nerve ; but
his tir:-t thought was to attempt an escape,
from which ho was deterred ouly by the con
sideration that any effoit to th it effocl would
necessarily bring him nearer lo his unwilcotiiu
visitor.
" Aunt Morse," he said al length, ' lot i!n
Lord's sake, get tight back lo Ihe burying-
mind ! What ou earth are you here for c"
Tho appaiitiou took her pipu deliberately
from her month, aud informed him lh it file;
care to see justice done with her will ; it ml
lhat nobody uecd think of cheating her, dead
or alive. Corn-hiding her ic.maik with a
shrill emphasis, he replaced, her pipe, and
puffed away with renewed vigor. 1 he sqoiiu
had lea son - for retaining the document ut
issue, which he had supposed conclusive, bi t
he had not reckoned upon the intoiferencrj
of Ihe testator in ihe matter. Auut Morse,
when living, he had always regarded as a
vcy shrew of a .woman; and he now begun
to .suspect that her recent charge of condition
had improved her, like Sheridan's ght, "ihu
wrong way." He ,nw nothing belter to bo
done under the circumstance, thau to promise
to ffK the rrta'ler set right lhat ceiling.
The Ghost nodded her head approvingly,
and knocking the ashes out of her pi'
against the chimney, proceeded lo fill it .mow
w ith a handful of tobacco from her side pocket.
And now, Squiii'," she said; 'if you il
just light my pipe" for ine, 1 II ne a-going."
The Squire was. as has been intimated, no
coward; he had been out during the war iu .1
Meiriniac ptivalee-, and hud seen sharp work
olf Fayal, but as he? said nflc wards, "It was
110 loin h to lighting Aunl Morse's pipe."
No slavo of a pipe-bea'er ever hiuded tho
chibouque to ih Grand Tu'k wilh mure cato
and revuience, th in the Squire manifested
on this occasion. Aunt Morse dtcw two or
three long preliminary whilf-, Iu see that all
was tight, pulled her bhuUet over her head
and slowly hobbled out ul ihe door. The
Squire being Irtic lo his prorni-e wis never
ng.iiu di:dui bed. It is right in conclusion fo
say that there were wtrong suspicious at ihu
limp th.i the gho.t was in reality of flesh and
blood: iu sir one of the living heirs of
Aunt Morse, and uot the old lady herself.
A PRESERVED CORPSE.
1 11 digging, ihe other day, among the founda
tions .( (iiace Church, l-ilely pulled down, a
small load colliu was lurned up by the pick
axe. Ou opening it, a smaller one was found
inide, two feel and a hull' in length, appateti
tly of silver' bea'ing date 1767, containing
the body of n female child. The coffin had
a glass over Ihe fine; lower down, a looking
glass was set in Ihe mHal; and, near ihe foot,
was au Hpeifure closed by a glu-s stopper.
On removing thi-, it uppeared that the coffin
inside was filled with spirits of turpentine, in
which the body was so well preserved, lhat
the features, though somewhat shrunken, were
easily distinguishable through the glass. This
relic of h i.-!ocratic affection, iu ihe olden
times of New Voik, has excited considerable
interest hcu, though, as yet 110 attempt baa
been made lo nccouut !'' its history, or how
ii ciiiiii! into the resting-place where il has
just beeu disturbed. All is mystery without
a clue. A venerable fiicud, who has lived
iu ihis city for the last sixty-seveu years, and
for much of lhat lime has been in active life,
says lhat he rcmcmbe'S peifectly well, thai,
just after the evacuation of New York by the
British, in 1783, in pulling down tho old foi t
near the Battery, a vault or cell was discover
ed, containing the entire finally of a former
governor of New York oil in 8iler coffins.
A large warehouse then stood where Grace
Church.wag afterwards built, and thither tho
coffins were removed, aud slowed iu ihe cel
lar. What became of ihem afterwards, he
never heard; but, from all ihe facts especially
Ihe peculiar material silver it is more than
probably lhat the coffin just found is ojie of
Ihooi, left in ihe warehouse, and not uotictd
from its smalluess of size, aud allowed to
remain when the church wa erected over
the same foundations Aew York correspon
dence Washington Union.

reaching the Saxou territories, and inquiring
