My grandfather was cured by h, of a putrified ferer, as I've heard my mother my. . Father was likewise cured bv the same remedy, of a dreadful rebellious fever ; but just as he was getting on his feet again, he hud a prolapse, which carried him off Be tides these, rov cousin Jonathan Jenkins was cured of an information in the bowels in the same way. Thm Mrs. Thistlesifter, who, t you ltnow, it very skilful in roots and arbs. and sofortb,tays there is nothing in the world so good lor fever, as the split fowl-' 'A split fool C 1 via going to say ; and in deed, if all fools were so, who meddle with vlhat which thev know nothing about the 'world would be Wcr off Did you give the medicine I left him 'No, Doctor; Mrs. Thistksifter came here juat after you went away, and I couldn't do no less than to insult her in to imminent a Crises ; and we come to the conclusion be tween us, that it was not best to give him the medicine you leftbut to put the split fowl on his feet, poor man, and dress him well with pepper grass tea, and a little gill go-overground, and amartweed with it.' 48o you didn't give him the medicine I left.' ' 4 No, Doctor; Mrs. Thistlesifter and I thought it such an impotent case, that the split fowl was the principal thing that could be re lied on. Besides, to tell the truth, Doctor, we were afcared there was mercury in the medicine, and we noticed a white powder in it' Indeed t and so because you and Mis. Thistlesifter noticed a white powder in the medicine, you threw it aside and then split open a live fowl I' 4 Yea, Doctor, I do think marcury is a . dreadful bad thing. It saves people's lives, to be mre ; but then k gets into the bones, as Mrs. Thistlesifter says, and there' no getting it out again as long as you live. Oh I I would' nt a had Mr. Tozer, poor man, to take it for anything ' And so, by following your own and Mrs. Thiitlcsiter's foolish notions, you've lost your husband.' 4 Lost him did you say, Dootor ; lost my dear Mr. Tozer.' 4 Ay ; I grieve to inform you, madam, that he won't live forty-eight hours !' Not forty-eight hours Doctor ! not live forty-eight hours I and I've only been mar ried to him a year' 1 I'm sorry to inform you there's no help for him.' ' And 1 laid out so much money for my wedding clothes only a year ago. And the dung-hill fowl gone too- tho fattest roos ter in the barn-yard. Oh miserable me I that I should be a widow again, so soon I' Saying this, the good woman wrung her hands, and wept bitterly. The next day Mr. Ttwcr died. Mrs. To rn ar in duty bound, wept profusely for his deathbut finally eomfoited hersell that she had done every thing an affectionate wife could dohaving taken the advice ot Mrt.

A day or two since we published the com mencemrnt of a I at of curiosities in this eern, ana the reqnest of the propnetois to nana in whatever in the way of antiquities might come to band. In looking round we have picked up the following, which we do nate: A portrait of the Printer, of the Book of Fate. A shell washed up by the tide in the affairs of men. '"The pencil with which Britannia ruled the warn A lock of hair plucked from the brow of went A portion of the yeast used in raising the wind.

Half pound of butter made from the milk of human kindness. An arrow, shot from the bow of promise. The fifty cents paid for mending the seal ef war. The saucer belonging to the cup of sor row.

The turner Great Western arrived at her docs in New York, at ten o'clock hurt night, from Liverpool, bringing dates to the 31st ult, twelve days later than those brought by the Britannia. The Great Western brings one hundred passengers. She took out the newa of the capture -of Monterey by the American forces under General Taylor, which crested no little excitement. Food RioCi in Jrttand. Ireland seems to be in a deplorable situation. Tipperary is almost in a state of insurrection. A few dsys since it was oar painful duty to notice the murder of a man named Gleeson, in that riding. Another man named Williams, has shared the same fate. The town of Templemora was the scene of three food riots on Monday, by a mob va rying in numbers from one to five hundred men. The wont feature in this transaction la, that several of the persons engaged In it might have had employ ment, though to a very limited extent, on public works, but they were prevented from availing themselves of it by intimidation. The rage for the possession of fire arms is increas ing daily. An attack upon the Very Reverend Dr. Holmes, whilst fishing on Saturday last by an armed gang, eighteen in number, was in some measure suc cessful On the evening of the si me dsy the house of a farmer in the parish Oringlaas, was burglariously en tered by three ruffians supplied with pistols, who car ried off 10 15s. Nor have the depredators spared even their own clergy. The residence of the Rev. Dr. Morsland, P. P., ofCastledown Arra, was visited on Fridsy IsSt by a lawless party, which deliberately for ced his keys from his pockets, unlocked his desk, and seized on 17 with which they decamped. In the southern division Lord Donnemore'a agent has been robbed of 700 in the open day on the mail coach road, and within less than a mile of the popu lous town of Clonmeil. By far the greatest portion of Munster presents, at this moment, the appearance of a slumbering volcano. The difficuUit otht Ministry. Lord John Russell . -.i t i i . . i i . ,. ... i COnkr LM,u uucunain, si mc ciDinei council on cc . t5kVdy, urged earnestly the constitutional neoesjdtv nor an early session of Parliament, before Christmas, not only to obtain an act of Indc rnnlty for Lord Blcso borough's extension of the labor-rate act, but also to obtain a parliamentary unction for the reducUon of the Is. duty on imported grain. The council broke up without coming to any d finite resolution. At a meeting of the Ministry on Thursday, the sub ject was resumed, and on this tstter occasion the op portents of an early session had the advantage of Mr. Bancroft's arrival from the United Statu with intelli gence that the supplies of grain collected lit the Amer ican ports for exportation is so ample as to render it extremely Improbable that the supply was equal to any demand thai could be made, eooeeqoently this re moved necessity for the reduction of ths duty, thus relieving the Ministry from the moat Important mo tire for calling an early session. Another step u, what he w said tocaB the adrolnistretton of a despo tism. The objections to sn early session have been most anxiously prrassd by the Irish Secretary, and tho Oth er ministers connected with the government of Ire land, and with soene show of reason; they allege that as early session must embroil them with Mr. 0ConneIl and hi adherents and thus depriving the cabinet of its prrocipeJ support It is not only on ths side of Ireland that there are such difficulties threatening the administration at the assembling tl Pmrttament, whether early or late.

Dfttrucitte Flood in France. -We have most dis astrous and melancholy accounts of the consequences of a flood which had occurred in the Loire, the wa ters of which Hid suddenly risen o a height exceed ing any thing known for a century hack. The Loire and Its tributaries have been the principal theatres of this phenomenon, and have produced Inundations ex ceeding any known by the oldest cltlcens of the de partment of Alller, Loire and Elochlen, In a single night the Waters of the Loire Itself rose twenty French feet. Anothtr Inturrction in Portugal.--The luteet news from Portugal received at Madrid, announced that a revolutionary movement had broken out at Oporto. The reported arrest of the Duke of Tercelr was con firmed. That statesman is in prison at Oporto. A regency, it was said, was proclaimed In the name of Bedree III. It was said at Madrid that Costa, Cabral and Gonxalcs Bravo, were to have left on the 19th for Lisbon. Our Lisbon letter of the 16th Inst., slates that al' communication between that capltol, Oporto, and Co imbra, was cut off in consequence of the telegraph being broken. The Diario of that day contains seven royal decrees dismissing from their posts as many civ il governors appointed by the late Government. Mr. Palmetta had demand his passports for France. War in Cirtauia. The news from Clrcassia which comes down to the 31st August, is of great and thril ling interest. A Russian deserted to the Circassians, Baki Deli fusengi by name, who, obtaining influence with the various tribes, hss been raised to an important com mand, haa made a successful razzia on the Russian possessions. THE MARKETS. PaoviwoN MAaatTs. Liverpool, Oct. 31. Fri day There haa been but a small demand during thia week for Irish butter, and with only a moderate Im port, holders have been enabled to keep up the former quotations. Some holders refuse to offer at present, particularly any thing fine. Bacon and hams are in good request, and at an advance in price. Lard is scarce and wanted. Beef la without alteration, whilst Pork is held by some for higher rates. LivaarooL Cotto Maskit. Friday. The ac counts by the Great Western gave a further stimulous to our msrkets and an advance of id per pound was obtained for American and Sunt, at which a large bu siness wss done on Thursday. The Hibernia arrived with further accounts of favorable weather for picking, which seemed to check the speculative srdor, and the market has been quieter since, though as yet steady st the advance noticed. Brazos and Egyptians are without change since our last. 80 also Sea Islands. There has been taken on speculation 23,100 bales, consisting of 19,320 Ameri can, 700 Egyptian, 400 M sranhsm, and 2,700 Sural and for exportation, 1,550 American, and 250 Sural furnished into the country unsold, and daring the month 590 American, and 70 Surat.

Some villain or villains, while he and his Clrk at lea, broke Into Mr. B. F. Mitchsll's Store last evening, and rifled the money drawer of about 130. we trust oar Storekeepers will take warning and look well to their fastenings. CALL FOR TROOPS. W'e learn from the Washington Union of the 16th Inst, that requisitions bare been sent out from the War Department, calling: into the servica of the Uni ted Mstes, nine additional regiments of volunteers, to serve during the war with Mexico, unless sooner dis charged. One Regiment is asked for from each of the following 8tates, via: Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mas sachusetts, new 1 ork, and one regiment of mounted men from Texas. The North Carolina Regiment will rendezvous at Wilmington. FROM THE ARMY. Ws Warn, from the N. Orleans Bulletin of the 13th Inst, thst Capt. R. Levis arrived in that city on the 13th, lo 36 hoars from Galveston. He left Monterey on lbs 13th of lost month, and brings intelligence sev eral days later than before received. It was the almost anlversal opinion through ths army, that Oca. Ampudia had not (as has been so rrneraDy battered and reported) retreated from Salu k lo 8sa Louis Potest, but that h had proceeded oa the road to Monldova, with a view lo intercept Ora. Wool, and prevent hlsjunciioa with Gen. Tayesr. It Is noi known whether Gem.

If ths march of Gen. Wool has not baaa Interrupted, he to, doabUsss now In MooUrey. snd if be has encountered A in podia, we shaS soon know the result. PARTY FATUITY. The Union warns the people that the " federal par ly" meaning the whigs, intend, among other mailer, l advocate "acsisarifly feeling thai me, (wi s tUm, mutt nfftf buU, Talker than dtftnd oyrsWr." And this vile slander, U ihe face of al troth, pro mtdgated by Mr. Rikhit, Mr. Polk-t official Editor. STARVATION W.IRELAND,, A lettor frtfrn Ireland, speaking' of the aUrvstion sod deplorable suffering in partspf that counjiy, ex presses the astonlshrricnt of th'vtCT.4hatfthe A marlcan,' tuUed with L4h as they are, ne ver manifes ted uis least sympathy for them Jn their deplorable oondiUoB, snore-especially as in India the Irish thm entered into the matter very cordially,?.' -, . The7 Pittsburg Gaietie and Advertiser says : "We blushed when we read the last paragraph In the above article, to think that nothing had been done In Pitts burg to relieve bur suffering fellow-men, and, thou sands here may say, their suffering fcllow-klndrcd, from absolute starvation. Where are our bowels of compassion 1 How can we sit down at our tables la den with the bounties of Providence, and not re flect that hundreds of thousands of Irishmen are pi ning in hunger, and dying, yes, absolutely dying of UarvatumJ Irishmen ! we appeal to you. Will you do nothing for your suffering countrymen 1 Thou sands of dollars were raised a few years ago for repeal ; can, nothing be raised for bread? Let a meeting be called at once, and a ship load of flour and corn be sent from Pittsburg before the canal closes. The weather Is still propitious, and, if we haste to do good, we may have the heavenly consolation of know ing that we have brought the inestimable blessing 'of those ready to perish' upon our heads " STATE LEGISLATURE. The Legislature of North Carolina met on Monday last, the 16th. We are Indebted to the Raleigh Regit ttr for an account of the first dsy's proceedings, which we condense below : The at tendance of members of both Houses was unusually punctual. In the Sbnate, Col. Andrew Joyrur, whig and Lou it D. rjton, deni., were nominated for the office of Speaker. Col. Joyiur received 24 votes, and Gen. Wilton 20. Henry W. Miller, whig, was elected Principal Clerk of the Senate, receiving 38 votes. . IV. Hutted, whlgi woa elected Reading Clerk, receiving 25 votes, to 21 given for Perrin II. Butbee, dem. Gran Hill, whig, was elected principal Doorkeeper, by 5 votca over Page, dem. For Assistant Doorkeep er there were several competitors. On tho fifth vote, Patrick McGowa was elected on account of a piteous appeal to the Whigs to let the other party have one Doorkeeper, to attend their Caucuses. In the House or Commons, Edvcard Stanly, whig, and Daniel W. Court, dem., were nominated for the office of Speaker. Stanly received 65 votes, and Courts 47. Chatit Manly, whig, was unanimouily elected Principal Clerk of the House, and J. R. Dodge, Clerk Assistant, without regular opposition. S. J. Finch and John C Moore were nominated for Principal Doorkeeper. Finch received 82 votes, snd Moore, 15 both whigs. W. R. Lovell, of Surry, was elected Asaistsnt Doorkeeper, without regular opposi tion. RALEIGH REGISTER. The Editor of the Raleigh Register, gives notice to those desirous of taking that paper during ths Ses sion of the Legislature, that it will be furnished for that period twice a week, for one dollar, and once a week for fifty cents, in adtanee. Mr. Gales says : "It Is evident, that the coming Session will be one of pe culiar Interest, and it shall be the aim of the Editor to give a full, fair, and Impartial account of Its proceed ings." TRAITORS IN OUR MIDST. The New Orleans Delta of the 12th Inst, furnishes us with some further particulars relative to the con duct of WylU, Egan, d Co. a Spanish House of that city, of great wealth and extensive connexions. It sppears that about the latter Dart of Sentemher or fir.t of October the brig Plymouth was cleared from Ntw Orleans for Havana. It is sscertalned that this brig wss loaded with arms, smmunltlon, and munitions of war, which were landed In Mexico, and delivered to the enemies of our country. It will be recollected that suspicions were entertain ed in regard to the cargo of the barque Coosa, of whose cspture by our Squadron we gave an account in Tues day's Commercial. The Coosa was cleared by th same House, and as it has the character of being very rupectablt, the proprietors msy escape the hanging they so richly merit, for their overt act of treason, lo the case ef tb Plymouth, and perhaps the Coooa also. REPORTED SURRENDER OF CH1CUAHUA. The Lexington Monitor say "A gentleman of this city informs us that he received a latter a day or two since, which hsd been received In Camden.gtvlng Um particulars of the surrender of Cblcuahua to ths forces under Qen. Wool. The srmy, it seems, enter ed the city without resistance. The Mexican flog was saluted by the cidsens, and after a few hours hsd elapsed, the American officers were invited to partaka of a splendid dinner, which had been prepared for them by the Chicuahuaa. That we should say was rather a new mode of capturing an enemy's town." NEW MEXICO. New Mexico Is now a territory of the United Sta tea made so by a rescript Issued by Gen. Kearney, under Instructions from the President of the United States. This document reads as follows : ''' NOTICE. Being duly authorised by the President of the Uni ted 8 tales of America, 1 hereby make the following appointments for lb Government of New Mexico, a Territory of the United 8tates. Cm Astxs Bairr, to be Governor. Donaciano Vioil, to be Secretary of Territory. Richasd Dollam, to be Marshal. Fsawcis P. Blaio, United States District Attorney.

A western paper, speaking of Um "strict conatroe tkmlsts" ef the administration, says: 'Their tender consciences win not permit them to pall a log or snag out of the Mississippi, even when It md angers thou sands ef Ives and minions of property, bat they csa ride rough-shod ever the Constitution la a career of conquest sod natJooal aggrandisement." A GOOD JOKE. Al the Marlboro' Chapel, Boston, a dull speaker was Incessantly applanded. to the annoyance of many of Ute assembly, and to ths gnat encouragement of the prosing debater, who was thus Induced to Inflict a long speech upon the audience. It was finally ascer tained that the rapping was commenced by a dog, ocntcMng out Jleae, who thus led the applause of sn Intelligent Boston audience. A CURIOUS HEAD. A newspaper announcing the sfjajr si Monterey, says-' Glorious doings st Monterey flv hundred Araerkans kUled aud wvuodsd 4 : Arri"s ii (AtrvooiA letter from Nauvoo, da ted dn tlie 28ih ult:; state's that Gov: Ford bad arri ved tliere wiih'aboul 200 men and two pieces of ar. tilleVj.

BY THIS EYENINGS MAIL. From the Baltimore Sun, of yesterday. ARRIYAt- OF THE ACADIA. Four days latet Price of Flour, Corn, Cotton, d. The steamer Acadia arrived at Boston yesterday morning at half past 9 o'clock, having sailed from Liv erpool on the 4th Instant, and making the passage from shore to shore In the brief space of twelve days and eighteen hours. The Acadia having left Liverpool only four days be hind the Great Western sho brings but little later news, snd her political news lef but slight Interest. Our correspondent st Boston having received the news by the Great Western, by telegraph, previous to the arrival of the Acadia, has sent us only the varia tions in the prices of the market quotations, which are as follows: Flour and Gtain. American flour in bond, 33s. per. bbl., free flour 34s. 6d. per. bbl , corn (duty paid) 55s. per 480 lbs. Cotton. Ordinary Orleans and Mobile 5d. to 5J.; do. fair 6d. to 6j.; do. good from 6fd. to 7d. From the above it will be seen that there has been no material change in the price of either cotton or flour during the time Intervening between the depar ture from Liverpool of the steamers Great Western and Acadia. Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun, Philadelphia, Nov. 17, 8 P. M. The flour market to day has been unsettled', and there has been no sales to note.
