TBCM THE IATIO)AL ntTEI.LIGE5CER. RAILROADS. : The ralae of railroads is made manifest by the recent example cf extraordinary despatch between Halifax, in Nova Scotia, and the city of Wash ington. The papers by the Iliberoia, up to the 4th of March from Liverpool, and to the 3d from London, were delivered in Washington at 8j o'clock on the 20th of March. The distance from Halifax to Washington, near one thousand one liundfed miles; was travelled in about sixty, four hoors,v including all detentions and delays, not withstanding the disadvantages of a bad road, travelled by ' horses, for more than one hundred miles in Nova Scotia ; a high wind during a voy age at sea by steamer, of two hundred and fifty miles on the Sound- With these Dbetacles, the rate of travel, for the entire distance, including toppagos one hour at Boston, one hour and a half at New York and others waa seventeen miles au hour. If no other valuable end shall have been attained by this express, it serves to show what can be accomplished in this way in our country. While bo much with railroads have been achieved in the northeast direction from Washington, it is to be regretted that the same has not been done to the southwest of it. How ever important the news from Mexico and Texas, time must be lost in the sloughs of Alabama, to siy nothing of other detentions to which the ex press might be exposedVAs the deficient links - to a continuous raijroad between the Potomac ' and the Mississippi are not likely to be supplied as a national work, is it not surprising, that the States and cities interested in it do not unite with our capitalists in completing a work of such in . calculable importance ! Were the wanting link supplied between the Carolina capitals, Raleigh ami Columbia, less than two hundred miles in a direct and practicable route, aud about twenty miles further by Fayetteville, there' would soon be a continuous line of railroads from the Potomac, both to the Chattahoochie and the Tennessee riv ers, to the western boundary of Georgia. Were the travel from Alabama and Tennessee brought to Raleigh, to be transported over the State road to : Virginia, it cannot be doubted it would be a capital financial measure for the State of North Carolina. Would not its citizens be benefited in various ways by a railroad from Co lumbia to Raleigh 1 When one Jooks at the adaptation of the intervening country, on many accounts, for a railroad, who can doubt it would yield a handsome remuneration for the enterprise 1 . How could planters more profitably employ their negroes than as laborers on the line 1 Why will not old Rip Van Winkle wake up? Cannot South Carolina shake the poppies from her brow? Let the Carolinas but imitate the example of other States, and the movements now making in Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, and in 'the course of a year or two, the work would be done. Some thirty or forty years ago, one more pre . acient than that age, was considered deranged for believing the time would come when the travel ' between Philadelphia and Boston would be achiev ed in forty-eight hours. It is now performed in about twelve hours. When the great plan of a direct and continuous railroad between New York .and Boston shall be put in operation, it is confi dently believed the whole distance between those ci'ies, two hundred and nine miles, may be trav elled by ordinary trains in six hours. That being the case, why should more than nine hours be required between Philadelphia and Boston! As New York is not thirty miles nearer Boston than New York to Washington, why should not the day come when one may travel of a summer's day, between sunrise and sunset, from Washing ton to Boston? We shall not be considered insane were we to venture the prediction, that the day will come, when one day only will be required for the travel between Washington and Boston ! But we must begin by accelerating the travel beetween Washington and New York, which at this time ought not to require more than ten con. eecutive - hours. If England beats ue, as she does greatly, by the rapidity of her travel, it seems we beat her by the extent of our railroads. At toe close of 1843, from the returns compiled by order of Parliament, it appeared there were in America 3, 68S miles of railroad to 2,069 in Great Britain ; and that thS mileage on our railroads nearly " equalled those of Great Britain, France, and Bel gium. But ours cost JG4.600 per mile, on an average, to 31, 043 in Great Britain. We suppose in no part of the world can a rail road be constructed at a cheaper rate than be tween Raleigh, North Carolina, and Columbia,. South Carolina. Let this work be done, and it would soon lead to a completion of the metrop olitan route, to Baton Rouge, in Louisiana, or to Mobile, in Alabama, whence there might be an easy in rapid communication to New Orleans. AN OBSERVER. From the National Intelligencer. House of Retkesestatives, Mahch 23, 184C Getixmex : From the great confusion which pre vailed in the House last Fr iday upon the pass age of the bill for the improvement of certain harbors and risers, my name was improperly re corded in the-affirmative. I have had the jou ra ils promptly corrected by placing myself right upon that question. I voted in the ueg'ative ; and, if you will do me the kindness to publish this note in correction of the report in the papers, it will at once show my true position ' before my constituents. ' When we had a large surplus revenue in the Treasury, I was the constant and steady advocate 1 of its distribution ; and it would-afford me greatT pleasure, upon a proper occasion, to sustain, by vote,that long-cheri6hed Whig measure, the distribution of the proceeds of the public lands ;:among the several States according to their fed I ,cral population, leaving it discretionary with their several Legislatures to apply . and dispose of it for the high and patriotic purposes of internal improvments, education, or otherwise. .But, for the measure of this Democratic Con gress, alluded to above, appropriating near two . millions of dollars, something near the average i annual amount of proceeds of the public lands, I conless I have no sympathy. It has no equity or v justice upon which to found its claims to the sup- u iu Mi wuuis tuuuwj. ii is sectional and iucai in iia character, ana was thus, to enmp extent, supported by drawing to its aid the strong """local" interest subserved by its own enactment. It has not generously looked to the interest f the whole country North, South, East; and West as if the proceeds of the public lands were set aejde and distributed according to the policy .contended for by the Whigs.

DOCKERY. V . GOVERNOR GRAHAM., -v The unanimity with w hich ibis gentleman was nominated by the Wbiga for re-election, and the general conviction which pervades the minds of the party throughout the State.1 and in a good de gree the minds of the opposition, as to tbe-cer-tainty of his success, roust not be taken aran in dication that no effort is necessary, on h;s part and on the part of his friends, to make such a re sult absolutely certains Custom has now made it necessary, for candidates for the Gubernatorial chair to canvass the State, and however much on some accounts we may disapprove of the prac tice, as tending to degrade the office, and in ma ny instances rendering the canvass an arena for the display of the tricks of the demagogue ; or contributing much towards making the highest Executive officer of the Commonwealth a mere partizan ; yet, in many respects, it is highly im portant, inasmuch as by this means, an intelli gent and observant candidate, such as we know Gov. Graham to be, may derive much necessa ry information in regard to local affairs, which, by a practical and wise mind, "may be made subser vient to the best interests of the whole State. Apart then from all sinister considerations, ari sing from the necessity of seeiog the people, and addressing them on the various topics necessary to be discussed in their hearing, and of meeting a contestant upon the open field of conflict before those whose suffrages they seek ; we hold that it is of the highest moment in view of the wel fare of the Commonwealth, that candidates for that high office should canvass the entire State. And this matter we take the liberty of urging on the consideration of Gov. Graham at this early day, not because he has so formidable an oppo. nent in the person of James B. Shetabd, Esq., nor because we have any doubt of his election, bnt because we are anxious that the remainder of his term of office should be signalized by the introduction of cne or more schemes of State pol icy, originating in his sound sense, and his per sonal observation of the real coaditioa and wants of the State, which shall result in great practical benefit to our people. ! This is a point which we would impress upon the minds of all our citizens who aspira to that office ; that the people expect wise measures bearing directly vpon the immediate interests of the Slate, ' to emanate from the Gubernato rial chair; nor will they be satisfied with less. Let not any young man who presents himself be fore the people for that important poet think, that the only object which the framers of our Consti tution had in view in making provision for 6uch an officer, was simply to place a leisure-loving, book-learned-, silk stocking gentleman in the pa lace at Raleigh, for the sole purposes of pardon ing criminals, offering rewards for the apprehen sion of the scape gallows, and sending in to the Legislature stereotyped messages concerning many little things in general and nothing in par. ticular. Far from it. They designed that place for the best citizens of the Commonwealth, whose great experience; strong practical sense; en lightened and liberal views; general acquaintance with the affairs of the people and steady working habits; make them at once the ornaments and pride of the good old North State. Such we know to be the character of Wm. A. Graham. His modesty, and perhaps, his avers kn, even to seem to sanction the vile tricks of party electioneering, to which a mind as pure, and as elevated as his. could never stoop, and especially his severe af fliction during the last canvass, prevented his vi siting the greater portion of the State. We hope however, co barrier will prevent his making an early announcement of his intention to canvass the whole State, from the mountains to the sea board, during tho present season. Neiclemian. A DIFFICULT SITUATION. Suppose the case of a public officer, anxious to retain his situation, acd with an elasticity of conscience equal to almost any emereencv. Which shall he go for, Oregon or Frfe Trade 1 How is he to know the mind of the Administration? The West proclaims that Oregon is first in im portance. The South shouts for Free Trade -Then again, he must choose between 49 and 5-1. Well he reads the President's Inaugural, and is perfectly satisfied that the United Slates have an ndefeasible claim to the whole of Oregon. In short, he thinks there never was such a title ex cept that of Adam to the Garden of Eden. Soon after, however, be discovers that Mr. Polk has made the offer of 49 to the British Government, and then it for the first time occurs to him that this is a most judicious proposition and he cannot sufficiently honor the wise statesmanship and the conciliatory spirit which have dictated this excel- ent compromise. But soon the scenery is shift ed again, and instead of remaining in the compar atively pleasant region of Vancouver's Island, our Clerk finds the President, with his coat buttoned up to his throat, and encased in furs, hurrying off with long strides to the North Pole, and planting the American flag under the very nose of the Russian .Bear. Of course, our unfortunate scriv ener springs at once from his position, and warm. iug his nose with one hand, and holding hard to the coat tail of the Executive with the other, makes tracks for the region, of eternal snow. Here, perhaps, he hopes to find some repose, but no! lie is condemned to a worse fate than that of the Wandering Jew. His illustrious predecessor has scarcely planted Irs foot upon the line of 54 40, before he wheels to the right about, and then the cork leg "keeps going the same as before." A gentle breath of free trade, 6oft and spring like, has come from the South, and as he inhales' the odorous breeze, aud turns to follow the President, one would think our knight of the pen the most delighted creature in the world. He smiles at the thought that he could ever have indulged the insane idea of living in a land of everlasting win ter. He utters some touching sentiments, hand somely expressed too, upon the blessings of peace, and babbles, like a poet, about "green fields." At last they reach 49 once more, but just in their path, as the President is about to repose himself upon a bank of negotiation, up starts an armed legion of Western Democrats, who, with Hanne gan and Allen at their head, bid the Executive retrace bis steps, or die- the death. Once more tbey commence. the unceasing round. Poor Clerk! He must think with the President. A hard condi tion indeed. Lke the Irishman's owl, a man must keep op a "devil of a thinking," who does not wish to be left behind by the progressive Democracy. There is no'evil from which a lesson of good may not be learned." Let our young : aspirants avoid thexontagion of office seeking, with which the land is cursed, and nevercommit their happi ness and fortune to the 'caprice of mortal man. Let their own strong right arm" wield the hammer of the mechanic, or the farmer' spade but let them not "put their trust in princes." Richmond Whig. CORN COBS?AS FOOD FOR CATTLE. " When it' vis recollected how many hundreds and thousands of bushels of corn cobs are annu ally thrown away, or wastefully used as fuel, it becomes a matter of deep interest to every corn grower to know the degree of value to which this offal of the farm may be entitled to be con sidered as food for cattle. , f v . Do . corn cobs possess." properties of nutri tion ? If so, are those properties ' sufficiently concentrated to render them safe and efficient food ? These, questions are important, and par ticularly so in those years when there may be a scarcity of long feed, as hay, tops, and fodder and, fortunately for the solution of these ques tions, a more accurate test a nicely conducted experiment was made many . years since, by P. Minor, Esq, of Ridgway, Va., and communicated at the time to the Agricultural Society of Albe marle County of that State. His experiment was conducted by distillation, probably the surest way of testing the degree of nutriment, and the result of this experiment is entitled to the more consideration, as it was undertaken at the re quest of a member of the society, with the ex press object of determining the relative propor- Wons of nutritive matter in the grata ana coos or tin corn. "Mr. Miner says the experiment was carried on under the eye of an experienced and intelligent distiller, and was as follows : Ten bushels of corn, and cob ground together were taken, which weighed 367 lbs.; and ten bushels of pure corn meal were taken, which weighed 400 pounds. jThey were both brewed, or mashed on the same day, and distilled separate ly, wi.h great care and accuracy. The product of the pure corn was eighteen gallons, and the product of the mixture, or corn and cob, was 13 gallons of ppirit, each of the same degree of proof. Now, it is generally agreed that the cob con stitutes about one half of the bulk of the corn in other words, we give two measures in the ears for one shelled ; and the cobs are either ut?ed as fuel, or thrown away, as of no value. If this U true, the product of the mixture then should have been only nine gallons, or the half of what the pure corn produced. But thirteen gallons were obtained, four of which must have been extracted from the cobs ; or, if we estimate nutritive pow er by the quantity of spirit, then it is clear, that wheu we shell ten bushels of corn and throw a way the cob, we throw away a portion of the food equal to the difference between nine anJ 13 or nearly one-half. This experiment of Mr. Miner's, as accurately and nicely as it was conducted, does not settle the question, as to how much nutriment the cob contains it only settles that of how much spirit they will make and what their relative value is for the production of ppirit, compared with the grain. It proves that while ten bushels of meal from the grain made 18 gallons of spirit, the same quantity of meal made from cobs and grain, made 13 gallons and, of course, that the 5 bush els of cobs yielded 4 gallons of spirit. - Besides the' principle of alcohol found in all grain and most vegetables, there are other sub stances, or principles in all, possessing nutritive properties ; among these, msy be enumerated the saccharine and oleaginous principles- of in finite value, not only in the sustenance of the an imal system, by the elaboration of carbon, but in the production of fat. And besides these, there are other principles which contribute to the for mation of flesh, muscle and bones. Without reference to the chemical analysis of the corn cob,' (of which we are not aware that one has been made,) we take it or granted, that as it contains four-ninths, as much spirit as does tho grain, that its elements bear a proportionate relation. But we are not left to conjecture as to its value ; because the experience of every one who may have lived in the neighborhood of a dis tillery, will have taught him that the residuum, after tlte spirit is extracted from the grain, fami liarly called distiller's slop, is used advantageous ly in the fattening of swine, and that when fed to milch cews, it is eminently conducive to the se cretion of milki and in connection with fodder or hay, never fails to keep them in good heart and condition. But to return to the corn cobs. We have al ready 6hown that so far as spirit is concerned, that tbey yield nearly as much as the grain it self, and we think the inference aifair one, that if thoy were reduced to meal, eubmrited to some cooking process, and incorporated ith chopped fodder cf some kind, they would be found, for cattle, fully equal to half their quantity of corn, whether regard be had to their general health, the formation of flesh, muscle, bone, and fat. We conclude, therefore, by the expression of the opinion, that every corn-grower should save his corn cobs for his cattle, and that to render them available, he ought to provide himself with the means of reducing them to cob-meal.

Mr. Gillis and bis Horse. Mr! Mark Gillia of Nashville, an ardent Locofoco, lost' a favorite horse doring election day. He had been some distance from the place of meeting, to procure two or three delinquent voters, and was upon the full drive towards the ballot boxwhen his horse had a leg instantly broken by stepping into a hole in the bridge over which they were passing. The delay caused thereby resulted in the !. tionof Messrs. Gay and Beard, two ataunrh Whigs.' Ane voters in charge of Mr. Gillis would have turned the scale the other way. .The Whigs in.

EDITORIAL DUELS. v ; The late duelNof Messrs, Pi.EA9ixT8and Ritchie has"; suggested to Major ; Noah some re collection of editorial quarrels in New York du ring his time.' And he tells one, which he'says has never before been given, in detail, Mo the public and which he calls'" one of the most ro mantic and extraordinary duela probably ever fought--certainly ever fought in this country the duel in 1801, between -William Coleman Editor of the Evening Post, and Captain Thomp son, Harbor Master." James Cheetham, Editor of the American Citizen, was the: organ of the democratic party. William Coleman, Editor of the Evening Post, represented the Federal party ; and both, we may say, controlled the destinies of their res pective parties. He was by birth an Englishman, of indomitable courage, great and commanding talents, and a fesocious and ungovr ernable temper. .; He had more talent than Cole man ; but Coleman was a man of better personal qualities, indolent and somewhat dissipated, but a very severe paragraphist and an expert politician. Coleman and Cheetham, after some violent in terchanges and editorial anger, finally; got into a duel. Cheetham was the challenger. Consider erable negotiation and management took place between the friends of the parties : and it appears that Judge Brockholst Livingston, in order to pre vent the meeting, ordered out the posse comita lus and had the ; parties arrested. This threw some doubt on Coleman's courage ; and Captain Thompson, a democrat a brave, tearless man, who always "uttered his thoughts" freely said that Coleman would not fight ; that if slapped on one side the face, he would turn the other. The party took tire at this declaration, and the leaders, Washington Morten, Beekman, and sev eral others, met at David Longworth's, booksel ler. Park Row, andVter a brief consultation in formed Mr. Coleman that he must challenge Mr. Thompson that there was no evasion of the ve ry offensive declaration ho had made. Thus cir cumstanced, Coleman sent him. a challenge by Washington Morton, which Captain Thompson accepted, and named Cheetham as' his second, and the friends made the necessary arrangements for the meetinsr. The apprehensions of the law were such, that it was resolved to keep the meeting a secret irom all, except the parties already acquainted with it, and to fight at night. Doctor Hugh McLean was notified toatttnd a meeting professionally, though he may have heard of the preliminary arrange ments and names of parlies.' i hey met on a cold winter night the snow was on the ground behind the house of Captain Randall, which stood at the corner of Broadway and Eighth St. The road passed through a ravine, and passed Potter's field, now VVashniffton square, turniCff - W w round in the rear of the Captain's mansion, now Univerity place. The ground was marked out, and the Drincipals took their stand. The Doctor arrived rather late, and, on alighting from, his gig, heard the report of the pistols, and a ball winch whizzed by his head, acquainted him with the fact that hostilities had commenced. He walked towards the party. " Who goes there ?" asked the seconds. " The Doctor," was the reply. "Keep at a distance, if you please, at present." " Well, gentleman," said Washington Mor ton, " we have exchanged a couple ot shots al ready. How much longer are we to remain here?' Until we fire a dozen more, said Cheetham. Well, then, said Mr. Morton, if it is to be so, the parties must approach nearer each other say at six paces. It is so dark that tbey can not 6ee each other." 44 Agreed," said Cheetham ; and the beleiger ents approached nearer each other.' Another shot was fired, but from one pistol. " No matter whose it was," said Capt. Thomp son "fire away 1". Another shot was exchanged, when Thomp son cried out, " J' re got it .'" and fell. The seconds and- Mr. Coleman immediately left the ground. Doctor McLean approached the prostrate man, and made a hasty examination of his wound. The ball had passed through his li ver and lungs. . " Sir," said he, " I am sorry to say that yon are mortally wounded ; and as a brave and honor able man, I wish you to give me your word that you will nut divulge the names of the parties in this unfortunate business." "You have my premise, sir,", said Captain Thompson. j The Doctor placed the, wounded man in his gig, and carried him down to his lodgings, we be lieve in Beekman Street, saw him comfortably disposed of, and left him. Capt. Thompson reso lutely refused toi name any one as connected with the affair, paid it was all fair and proper, and on his death the Coroner's Jury could not, after a long session, obtain any clue to the names of the portles, and it was rot for some years, that the whole particulars were publicly known of .this extraordinary duel.

Dear Sir: I send you the following cer tificate obtained from Mr. Gulick. I would juet state that I became acquainted with" him two jears ago. At that time he was entirely bald, with the exception of a lock of hair on the back part of his head, about the size of hlf a dollar, and that lock of hair he told me had been made to grow by the ose of your Tonic ; previous to which he positively avers, he had not a single hair on his head. Tbe hair now completely covers his bead, and is from four to five inches long. Very respectfully, yours, &c, .. ' ' -: . ' P. MASON. ) Another Proof of ihe Efficacy of Dr. Jayne" s Hair Tonic. This will certify that I was entirely bald for about three years, when I was recommended to try Dr. Jayne's Hair Tcfnic. I procured two bot tles of Mr. Mason, in Summerville, and using the Tonic for about fifteen months, my hair came all over my bead, and, although not as thick aa before, yet it is constantly growing. This surprising restoration of my hair has excited the astonishment of all my ac quaintances, and made me an object of curiosity to many. I am now 55 years of age, and have reason to regard tbe inventor cf this matchless Hair Tonic as a public benefactor. ' Joachim Gulick. New German town, N. J., Nov. 26, 1842. .
