"Ctolina,, for the satis factory and interesting information concerning : Bouth Carolina enterprise in hefconstruction of railroads, especially that no Camden, in the di rection to Raleigh, now under contract and rap idly progressing to completion.- server u. indebted to -Carolina" for details of which he Lad teen " ignorant ;M having perhaps strangely . 1 imbibed the idea that the railroads in South Car - Una, leading from Charleston, were the fruits of private enterprise, and that the State of Georgia was entitled to ihe credit of the system of rail- roads ' in that' Stated arid "now in progress to Tennessee- in one direction and to the Chattahoo . chie in another." The .Observer" would not rob South Carolina of a single leaf of the chaplet she has earned by her glorious public works ; on - the contrary; he wishes her good speed, and that he i may soon undertake' the -remaining "sixty miles in the direction of Raleigh she is prepared . tX any time" to do, "if North Carolina can only -be awakened from her slumbers." Is there no .-way to wake up" Old Rip Van Winkle !" Surely North Carolina will construct the "one hundred ?miles" in that Slate. Her intelligent and patriot iccitizens cannot be so insensible to the interests "of the Old North" as to leave that link alone nnproTtded for in the great chain of railroads be- ; tween the Potomac and the Mississippi. This link once under way, much time would not elapse before there would be a continuous railroad from Washington to New Orleans.- The entire dis tance might be then travelled with safety in less than four days ! I now learn that to supply the deficient links between Washington and Vickaburg, on the " Mississippi, would not require more than five hun dred and seventy-fjve miles of railroad. Six mil lions of dollars would be a liberal allowance for its construction, and to put it iu operation the entire distance." According to the data for the construction of Southern railroads at this time, the cost might be considerably less. The links in the great chain unprovidedjor and unfinished are .' as follows: t-'- '' 1 " l Prom Washington to Aquia creek, on ' the Potomac, about ' 50 miles. From Raleigh (N. C.) to Camden (S. C ) 160 From "Portsmouth" towards Montgo- : mery (Ala,) , . . 135 From Montgomery to Jackson (Miss.) 230 " . ' -"'"--' " .' 573 From Jackson to Vicksburg, on the Mississippi, there is a railroad now in use. If the Carolinas, or private associations, construct the railroads thai are needed in those States, it js not unrea eonable to conclude that the three hundred and izty miles allotted to Alabama and Mississippi will be done also, as the cost would scarce ex- . ceed half that of the railroad between Boston and Albany, constructed by the enterprise of the citi xens of Boston.' In Massachusetts alone, there are now upwards of seven hundred miles of rail roads in use, and other railroads are being con-.-. srtructfid and are in contemplation. Their cost , per mile has averaged more than three times as much as the estimate of railroads in Alabama. Yet (he investment in every instance has proven to be advantageous. If the Yankees-would but - lend -a band, the hundred and sixty miles of rail road needed in the Carolina would be speedily , constructed, and at a cost not much exceeding ' one million of dollars. Perhaps their aid is not . - needed on the route. from Georgia to Jackson, in n Mississippi. . On the completion of the railroad . to that point it would probably be extended south, ward, by Baton Rouge, to New Orleans, about two hundred and seventy miles, at a cost perhaps of 81,900,000 ; assuming, as data, the estimate -ifbr a railroad from Mobile to Pascagoula, at S7, - .000 a mile? For less than eight millions of dol--Jars it is very likely a continuous railroad might be jnade from : Washington to New Orleans, in ; connexion with the roads already constructed, ' that would lead from the seat of the National v t Government and pass through those Southern capitals Richmond, Raleigh,' Columbia, Mont gomery, Jackson, and Baton Rouge. Why should cot such a work be constructed! may be asked, in these days, with amazement. So soon as a con tinuous railroad shall be in operation as far as :j Montgomery, in Alabama, it is likely it would be ... continued io the most direct route to New Or- - Jeans by Mobile. Advantage, however, might be taken of the Jackson railroad nearly as far as DemopoIis. From the intersection with It of the ..railroad to Mobile might, be about one hundred ' s miles; the cost of this branch might be about a million of dollars, but probably less. From Moble to Pascagoula, on the Gulf of Mexico, forty miles, the route has been surveyed for a railroad, and an estimate made, amounting" to 8288,458 04. . MUpoa inspecting the map of Alabama," says the report, ? it will be perceived that Pascagoula is nearly in a direct line between New Orleans and Mobile.., A railroad is now, 1840, in course of construction from New Orleans to Cat Island, distant from Pascagoula about thirty-five miles. In the event of the completion of these two lines, a continuous chain of railway communication will be afforded between two of the moat impor tant commercial cities in the South, with the ex ception of thirty-five miles of unavoidable steam boat.traveL" ' But that would be along a bay, sheltered by .the island in the Gulf of Mexico. The distance by this route would not much execeed one hun. .t dred and twenty miles. A friend of the under taking is. of the opinion that .When the Mexican Gulf Railway and that from Mobile to Pascagoula shall have been com pleted, the distance between New Orleans and Mobile will be travelled in six to seven hours, and the -great communication between the North and New Orleans shortened by these roads near - twenty.four hours.- How important, then, that the 'jt.V6 min be lirecle to this road toPascagoo- : ; The want of capital at Mobile, the depression ef the price of cotton, and commercial embarrass ments since . 1840, have hitherto nre vented the prosecution of the railroad to Pascagoula, notwith- sianaing. enure conbdence tha$ it would be a profitable investment The writer quoted adds: ' The estimate of cmt 'vnnU r.n v less than at that time, IS40, labor and materials of all Kinds navrng fallen. 1 At the satne time, that the expense of building the road would now be "less, the travel wbuld be greater.

TV . , - .. route from Washington to New Orleans, .both by Mobile and Baton Rouge. In case of war yjese roads' would be of the first importance, as connec ted:with the defence of. tbe country. The Hon. A; iSrxwAST, of Pennsylvania, in late speech irf Congress on interflal improvements, apposite ly and forcibly remarked: . j . As a means of national defence, a general system of Raifroads,' connecting our cities on the seaboard and penetrating the' interior, was belter and more effectual in an extended country like ours than any system of fortifications that could be devised. Should the enemy make a de monstration on any point on the seaboard, before he could approach and effect a landing, troops would be collected sufficient to prevent the suc cess of his enterprise. Had we possessed such roads last war, this city Washington would ne ver have fallen into the bands of his enemy; in two hours, troops might have been brought from Baltimore, who would have effectually cheeked the march of the invaders, and they never would have wrapped the Capitol in flames. But forts, except in very particular cases, may be avoided." , 'Intimeof peace forts are useless; costing millions to erect them, they are utterly without value; while, at the same time, they continue to cost large sums to keep them in a state of repair and suitably manned. But rail roads are as useful in peace as in war. They are well worth all they cost for the purposes of commerce and intercourse." "If rail roads are a better means of defence than forts, then they are more constitutional, being more necessary and proper' for carrying out the de fensive powers conferred upon Congress. "The military power in the Constitution empowered Congress to make military roads for the trans portation of armies and the munitions of war. And so the commercial power authorized Con gress, to make commercial roads, whether over the land ur by the channels or course of rivers." " Whether the road be five or five hundred miles long, is a matter perfectly imma terial : the true question is, what is its purpose! '.Congress." says the Constitution, 'shall have power to establish post offices and post roads.' " And suppose a continuous lino of railroads, di rect from Washington to; New Orleans, be the established post road, we shall no longer hear of "six mails" at a time being "due at New Or leans," no intelligence having been received there for more than a fortnight from Washington. Concurring with the honorable member from Pennsylvania in the right under the Constitution, I beg leave to inquire how can Congress expend the public money better, in preparing for nation al defence, than in the construction of the rail road from Washington to New Orleans ? While the railroad is in progress South, I should be glad to see the Cumberland road in pro gress West, and that it also start, as it ought to do, from the seat of Government. It appears to me very strange that the link of railroad should be wanting between Washington and Aquia creek ; and of the Cumberland road, about the same dis tance, between Washington and Fredericktown. Should such things be ? AN OBSERVER. Beautiful Tribute The Rev. Orville Dew ey of New York, preached j in the Hall of Repre sentatives at Washington City, on Sabbath, 22d February 1816. The following is an extract from his discourse : j " There was once a man who stood in the loft iest seat of power and did t not fall. Hallowed for all time be this anniversary of his birth. I cannot let 'this day pass, and in this place, without an allusion to his memory. Nor is it by any forced construction that I connect his example with the theme of my present discourse. For, much as has been said of the peculiar traits of bis character, I do not know of any thing more marked in it than the discrimination upon which I have now been insisting. Our Washington was one of the I few great men in the world, in whom the better sentiments were wrought into established and governing principles. This was emphatically his greatness. ' He was not among the greatest in intellect, in genius ; but be was grea'est in this, that bis whole character was bas ed upon steadfast andtuflexible principle. I mafk this trait in all his writings.! I see every where, how all that there was of feeling and enthusiasm in his mind, was tamed town to the sedateness and strength oT principle. I see in his whole life the same concentration of every thing to the one point of duty. Duty, principle, was the pole star that guided him through the troubled and trying scenes of his life. It is this which the sculptor has set forth, when he represents the victorious chief, with one hand surrendering to his country the sheathed sword, the emblem at once of com mand and of power, and with the other, pointing to heaven, in token of humble and solemn grati tude and allegiance to the Power Supreme. "And this teas in the sphere in which he moved it was greatness. It was a greatness of which many who are called great, are utterly inca pable. It was a greatness which no roan in simi lar .circumstances ever exhibited. A Cesar grasping at the sceptre of empire, an Alexander sweeping the skirts of Asia with his hosts, a Na poleon or a Cromwell vaulting, when occasion served, to the seat of arbitrary power what are those examples of miscalled greatness, to the sublime and Christian heroism of our Washing- ion This, my brethren, is greatness for every man. Ibis demands a resolution, an energy, a nobleness, to be'seen no where else. To abjure all ease, all softness, all indulgence, all ambition, at the solemn behests of charity ; to bring to an end this eternal contradiction between our ideal and our practice, to pass through the great re generation, from passive sentiment to resolved and active-principle ; this, in every walk, indi vidual, social, political, in every career of commu nities or nations, is the only path to unfading glo ry on earth, and eternal bliss in heaven." We thiuk the editor of the Jeffersonian has tipped Mr. Leak the cold shoulder rather uncere moniously, especially when it is borne in mind . t t . . tnai ne came oat tor nun in a very decided man ner.

The Clerk of the Howe brought in the Sub Treasury Bill passed by that branch yesterday, which was twice read by its title and referred to the Committee on Finance. ;y , . v A large, number of reports from . Committees, chiefly adverse, upon private cases, were taken up and concurred in." ' "' " " .! v ; The special order being resumed, . -Mr. Ashley made, his long-interrupted speech. The most, he expected to accomplish he said, was the dressing, up of old arguments in a new guise ; still he could not feel justified as a repre sentative of a sovereign State, in remaining silent upon a question which might possibly involve two great nations in war. After defending the west from the charge of ignorance msde by Mr." Archer, and comparing statistical notes to shew that Virginia, though a hundred years old, was but a fraction of 1 per cent..in advance of Arkansas, only eight years old, on the subject of education ; and after vindi cating the Baltimore Convention from the charge of Jacobinism, made by the same Senator, Mr. A. entered upon a long argument concerning the title, and proved, to bis own satisfaction, that we owned, and must have, " the whole of Oregon." Mr. A. could not vote for Mr. Colquitt's form of notice because he believed that the House would reject it, and then we should have no no tice at all ; neither would he vote for Mr. Crit tenden's allowing the President to give the notice any time after this session. Mr. McDuffie next rose and moved an ad journment. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Burt, of S. C-. rose to a privileged question, with reference to Army estimates. The Committee on Military Affairs had direc ted Mr. B to notice an Editorial in a late number of " The Union," in which it was maintained that no confidential communication had been made to the committee by the Secretary of War, as alleged in the House by members of the same, as the reason for not making known the said recom mendations and estimates. In order to disprove the article in the " Union," and to set the Com mittee right upon the subject, particularly the Chairman and Mr. Burt, who had stated the con fidential nature of the Secretary's letter, he read extracts from the same, by which it appeared that the estimates were confidentially submitted by the Secretary, and the Committee requested so to regard them. On motion of Mr. Robert Smith, of 111., the House went into Committee of the Whole, (Mr. Foot, of Vt., in the chair.) and took up for con sideration the bill making appropriations for the continuance and completion of the Cumberland Road. An amendment was offered providing that an appropriation of the Public Lands be made instead of money. The Bill appropriates $100,000 for the State of Ohio, and .$150,000 each fur the States of Indiana and Illinois. Mr. Stanton, of Tcnn., perceiving that there was to be a general grab for the public domain, put in for 280,000 acres for the State of Arkansas, in the shape of an amendment, appropriating this much for the completion of a military road in that State. There was somewhat of a protracted debate upon the question, whether tfie appropriation should be in money or land, in which Western and Southern members alone participated. Upon the principle that land was better than no thing, and it was that or nothing, several from the West advocated it. The Committee rose, a resolution limiting debate to half an hour, when next taken up was adopted, and the House ad journed. SENATE. April 4ih, 1846. The morning hour having expired, the Senate then resumed the consideration of the Oregon Notice Resolutions. Mr. McDuffie having the floor, went into the able question of title, and argued that our right extends no farther than 49. He also ad duced authorities to show tht Oregon is worth nothing for agricultural pumoees. lie was with Mr. Webster, convinced thai public sentiment on both aides the Atlantic is in favor of a settlement upon the 49ili degree. He said no one could suppose for a moment that England would take less than 49. Hence it was either 49 or war. The cost of a war would be at least 100 millions annually, and the whole territory was not worth a tenth part of that sum. He then drew aglow, ing picture of the horrors of war, and the im mense damage England with her steam navy could do us at the outset. He argued that the honor of this country could not at all be compro mised by settling upon 49, as we were entitled to nothing more, lie said he would vote in favor of the form of Notice which shall best express the views of the Senate in favor of compromise. tie concluded by observing, that if he himself were to aid to bring on war by grasping at more than 49, he would deserve the execration of pos terity and especially that of h:H own children. On motion of Mr. Webster, the Senate adjourn ed to Monday. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. As soon as the journal -was read, the House resumed the consideration of the resolution of Mr. Linn Boyd, to the effect, that all debate in Com mittee of the Whole upon the Cumberland road, shall cease in half an hour, after the considera tion of the bill shall have been again resumed. Some conversation ensued, after which Mr. Boyd modified his resolution by substituting "two hours." After an ineffectual motion to lay it on the table, the resolution was adopted by a vote of 94 to 63. On motion of Mr. Daniel, the House then went iuto Committee of the Whole, and spent some hours in the consideration of bills on the private calendar. At two o'clock, "as usual, there being no quorum, the Committee nse without having accomplished any thing, and the House adjourned. SENATE. MONDAY, April 6, 1846. During the morning hour, numerous petitions and other unimportant matters were disposed of, after which Mr. Webster took the floor, and oc cupied the remainder of the day in a speech ex planatory of the reasons which influenced him in closing the Ashburton treaty relative to the N. E Boundary. It would be impossible to condense a speech ot such a character into a reasonable space, as it covered the treaty and embraced vo luminous documentary evidence. The object of Mr. W. was to refute the numerous charges made against him of compromising the interests of this country in fayor of the British. He endeavored to show that his country instead of being a loser, was, on the contrary, a great gainer by the trea ty. Without concluding, he yielded to a motion of adjournment.. He has the floor to morrow. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. " This was the regular day for petitions, but by unanimous consent, the Committees were first called on for reports. . A great numbet of private and local bills were then reported and referred to a Committee of the Whole. ; , . . . . , ' .

THE FURLOUGH AN IRISH ANECDOTE. j Time was called." Roxan.na. In the autumn of 1824, some 'private affairs called me into the sister kingdom, and as I did not travel, like Polyphemus, with my eyes out, I gathered a few samples of Irish character, amongst which was the following incident: I was standing one day at the window of mine inn, when my attention was attracted by a scene which took place beneath. The Belfast coach was standing at the door, and on the roof in front sat a solitary passenger, a fine young fellow, in the uniform of the Connaught Rangers. Below, by the front wheel stood an old woman, seeming ly his mother, a young man, younger woman, sis ter or sweet-heart, and they were all entreating the young soldier to descend from his seat on the coach. . . ' Come down wid ye, Thady' the speaker was the old woman 'come down now to your ould mother. Sure it's flog ye they will, and strip the flesh off the bones I give ye. Come dnwo, Thady, darlin" ! - It's honor,' was the short reply of the soldier; and with clenched hands and set teeth he took a stiffer seat on the coach. 'Thady, coraq down ye fool of the world como along down wid ye I' The tone of the present appeal was more impatient and peremp tory than the last j and the answer more prompt, ly and sternly pronounced ; 'It's honor, brother !' and the body of the speaker rose more rigidly e rect than ever on the roof. Oh Thady, come down ! sure" it's me, your own Kathleen, that bids ye. Come down or ye will break the heart of me, Thady, jewel, come down, down then' The poor girl wrung her hands as she said jt, and cast a look upward that had a visible effect on the muscles of the sol dier's countenance. There was more tender ness in his tone, but it conveyed the same reso lution as before. 'It's honor, honor bright, Kathleen !' and as if to defend himself from another glance, he fixed his look steadfastly in front, while the renewed treaties burst from all three in chorus with the same answer. Come down, Thady, boney ! Thady, ye fool, come down ! O, Thady, come down to me !' It's honor, mother ! It's honor, brother! Honor bright, my own Kathleen !' Although the poor fellow was a private, this appeal was so public, that I did not hesitate to go down and inquire into the particulars of this distress. It appeared that he bad been home on furlough to visit bis family and having exceed ed, as he thought, the term for his leave, be was going to rejoin his regiment, and to undergo the penalty of his neglect. I asked him when his furlough expired. "The first of March, your honor bad luck to it, of all the black days in tho world, and here it is come on like a shot !' The first of March ! why, my good fellow, you have a day to spare, then, the first of March will not be here till to-morrow. ' This is Leap year, and February has twenty-nine days.' The soldier was thunderstruck. 'Twenty nine days it ? Yon're sartin of that same t Oh, mo ther, mother! the ;Devil fly away with yere old Almanac a base crater of a book, to be deceavin one after living so long in the fami'y of us.' His first impulse was to cut a caper on the roof of the coach, and throw up his cap with a loud Huzza! His second was to throw himself in the arms of Kathleen, and the third, was to wring my hands off in acknowledgement. 'It's a happy man I am, your honor, for my word's saved, and al by your Honor's manes. Long life to your Honor for the same ! May ye live a long hundred and leap years every one of them I' ! Washington, Apart. 6. We cannot conceive what motive the Adminis tration can have in the language which it speaks, through its official organ, ostensibly to our own Senate in the tone of reproach but effectively also to the British Government, in terms well suited, and as if intended, to extinguish all hope of its amicable advances ever being met in a corres ponding spirit on our side. The official paper of Saturday night has an ar ticle of some length, (a continuation of which is promised,) the burden of which is comprised in the following extract : Let us no longer Jput the cart before the horse.' 'Negotiation will 'not come, until we give the ' notice, i That is the first step in the process ; ' and, when England sees that we are in earnest, she will then seriously consider what she is to do. Pass it (we respectfully suggest) without any formal compromise attached to it Give the notice without: faltering qualification." ' Now, we think we do not mistake the opinion of intelligent men of all parties, including the Members of both Houses of Congress, when we say that it is the opinion of four-fiftha of them that the very thing which the government paper enjoins upon them that is, to give the notice tciih out qialificalion--wpud't under present circum stances, be tantamount to an invitation to war, instead of peace.

' . - ; - : ' IT Woaus are formed from tha foul humors which settle in tb stomach and In the intestines, because thes matters hare acquired by their degeneration, a strong slimy natnre, proper to the concretion of, Ahew insects-khese matters are always the cause of the formation of worms ; they are variously;nned tne round worm, generally iu" persons of tender years; the maw worm, a most troublesome inseet ; and also, the long thread worm; the tenea of tape worm, &. They exist under different forms, sometimes they knit together and go out ia balls ; oftener they .divide and go out one after another. When they ascend' thro the intestinal canal, they may b ejected by the mouth and even by the nose.;. When this happens, the pa tient is in much danger, such symptoms being strong evidence that his system is dangerously encumbered with the corruption, and iu re-uuion, and these two affections, when united, may cause instant death, or a short illness, ending in inevitable death. : N- The tape worm is almost always foond alone. ; It is sometimes very long. : The Brandreth Pills have brought them away over fifty feet long. " The tape worm is flat;' jagged from one end to the other: It is seldom ejected entire. I' i-sl'"-:: : .5.;f-rH . Those who are afflicted with any kind of worms, have usually a dull complexion, the circumference of their eyes is usually black ; they are pale and debili tated ; palpitations, a miserable wearinessoa the least exertion, and other unpleasant affections. , Children are subject to small and middle sized worms ;, the te nea or tape worm is principally found in grown per sons. Vermifuges are often more injury than benefit; they never entirely evacuate the worrnSfbntby break ing the mass which contains them, and in which they have ever been formed, they become scattered among the folds of tbe intestines, pierce their tunics and cause the most fatal accidents. .- : 1 It requires but a common understanding to conceive well the. cause and formation of worms -A: simple and natural comparison plainly shows tbe principles of their formation. Every one knows they are not to be foond in fresh meat; and that, on the contrary, tbey are engendered in spoiled meat. It is tbeu evi dent they cannot be engendered in the body of a per son whose humors are sound, but in those persons on ly where humors are corrupt ; therefore, to cure and prevent the formation of worms,' the humors of the body must be purified must be free of corroption. ' BrandretV Pills remove not only the worms ef whatever kind, (being equally adapted for the round or tape worm,) but also the humors which form them, aud upon which they feed. . Besides, they have the property of evacuating every substance which might favor a new formation of worms by regenerating the mass of humor. : ,., ----s- ' The following testimony in proof of the powers- of Brandreth's Pills as a remedy against .worms, is in serted here.
