, On Saturday morning last three renta
ble gentlemen, of thfl neighborhood, called
WS the Mayor and stated that m a house
t the corner of Howard .treet and Geu'g
Hey there resided an old lady, named Ra
chel Get, ho wa' 'n extreme destitution
and mek and that something should he done
for her. ' They did not knotf, but they had
iiq impression that she had some money.
The Mayor, prompted by his usual feel
ings of humanity, directed Dr. Chaisty, as
istant Commissioner of Health, to see to the
matter, and whether she had money or not
le seni her to the Infirmary, and take an in
ventory of whatever might be found valuble.
The Doctor proceeded on his mission, ffhd
the first business being the care of the old
lady, he expressed a desire that she should
consent to go to the Infirmary ; she seemed
unwilling to go, but consented to remain
with one of her tenants, who would take care
of her; for, surprising as it may seein, she
owned the house she lived in.
The house is a comfortable two story buil
ding, with a good buck building. It has an
office in front, and the remainder is occupied
hy two families, with the exception of the
farthest room back on the lower floor, which
ne occupied herself. Tins room was a per
Isctuoriosiiy shop, and a most miserable res
idenc.e for any human being, from the man
ner in which it w is kept. The lady in about
Virrhtv venrs ofa're. In one corner ol the
room was what might have been called, n
Jialf century ago. a bedstead, covered with old
pieces of carpet and bugs of shavings, on which
hs was accustomed to repose. The room
was filled with old trumpery, of every kind,
which had been most picked up in the street,
such as stumps of brooms, strips of old paper,
iron pots, and rags. &c, Ac. too numerous
to mention. In another corner of the room,
was an old stove which appeared not to have
known what fire was for a long time, and ev
ery 4ind of cooking utensil was absent. In
another corner was an old cupboard, tilled
willrbroken crockery ware and some of the
relics of her husbands business, who many
years ago was an apothecary in this city.
In the corner of the room was an old table,
covered with old trumpery, in the midst of
which stood her husband's morlar and pestle,
nnd to the leg of which was tied a chicken,
her companion in misery. The only ihings
found eatable were dome mouldy bread and
cheese and a little tea in a cup, which cer
tainly had not been made within a week past.
oJiiii'r here appearing very valuable.
she was asked whether she had any money,
he replied about $100. and that it was scat
tered all about, search was then made,
and in about thirty different places, concealed
in cups. jugs, bowls, and wrapped in rags
and paper, were lound about $So, all in
specie except $ 10" in paper. A large quan
tity of the specie was in 1 lie smallest denom
ination of silver coin. There were also found
12 silver table and f Silver tea spoons ; 2
pair of silver spectacles ; one snulf box. filled
with jewelry ; one iir of silver shoe buck
les of the olden time; silver sugar tongs,
and other trinkets. There were among them
four miniatures si t in gold, one of t hem par
ticularly of a child, was exqui.-ittly painted.
These things were all brought to the May
or's office and depo.Mled in the city sale, lor
tafe keeping.
In the meantime, a mattress was purchased
for her. much against hi r wish, and placed
in the room she was to occupy. She said
her bed was good enough for her.
On yesterday morning, Mr. Franklin Dohm.
in company with Mr. Ford, of Howard street,
came to the City Hall, and presented a pow
er of attorney to Dr. Chai-.lv, signed by her.
and authorising him to receive. I he money,
which, after having been counted in their
presence, was given up to Mr. Dohm.
The old lady did not at all like the idea of
giving up nil her juioney. but thought she
should have a little left to her. but was final
ly satisfied after being assured lh.it it would
be taken care of. .Sin: has no living relative,
as far as ran be ascertained, except perhaps,
a swtcr in Frederick county, about the same
age. This case presents one of the most re
markable instances of avarice and misery

WIND AND RAIN.
The heavy wind, accompanied by rain,
which was experienced here on Sunday night
last, wc learn did considerable damage to
houses, crops, dec. through the country. A
friend informs us that at Topsail Sound, and
in the vicinity of Moore's Creek, in this Conn
ty, it was very severe, doing great injury to
the crops.
CASS' OPINIONS.
A democratic Wisconsin paper goes back
as far us 1845, to prove that Gen. Cassis
devoted to Western Interest and Harbor and
River Improvements, and that he was oppo
sed to the annexation of Texas, nnd in favor
of the Wilmot Proviso. We suppose the
Cass Tories are not very anxious that the
Wisconsin man shall operate in this quarter.
The fact is, Cass has been on both sides of
the Internal Improvement question, "as well
as every other of public interest, where pro
lessir n either way would make political capi
tal for himself. But his true position, nt the
present time, is easily defined, though it may
not be so easy to guess how long he will oc
cupy it. He is committed to the Baltimore
platform of hostility to Internal Improve
ments by the (ieneral liorernmrnt, and ajh
prornl of Mr. Poi.k'b exercise of the Veto
I'ovtcr.
MR. WISE.
This gentleman has placed himself in a
singular position. When he was seeking for
the corruptions of a former administration,
and obtained his committees he charged
General ('asm. as Secretary of War. with
Bcvcrnl delinquencies. He declared, on oath,
that Gen. Cash, while Secretary ol War,
had been guilty of offences which not only
rendered him liable to impeachment, hut
were, calculated to damn him forever in the
estimation of every honorable man. He took
oath, that Cash bad been speculating in the
public lands ; had made cxhorbitant allow
ances to favorites ; hail paid one for services
never performed ; another. Hlter he had full
knowledge that the favorite had forged his
official signature; permitted commissions un
der him to be ante dated ; ordered a Treasu
ry warrant to be paid to the assignee of a
disbursing officer who had gambled it away,
after it had been protested by a deposit bank,
and countermanded by the Secretary of the
Treasury and to have been guilty ol other
acts of violation of duty.
Now, Mr. Wihf. supports Gen. Cash lor
the Presidency, nnd says he was mistaken !
We think n man is hardly to be trusted, who
makes such wide mistakes us this. If wc
cannot believe bis oath, how can we. take his
tcrit.
WHICH IS THE CANDIDATE 7
It ha been suggcs:cd in a Northern paper
that n distinction should be made in the sevi
ral General's Cass, now in nomination for
the Presidency. It would be very well to
find out which ol the candidates is the favo
rite of the Democralic party whose senti
ments they prefer to udopt because the opin
ions of Geuernl Caw of the Nsrth, General
Camh of the South, and General Cass of the
Went, differ very cscnlially from each other
in many essential particulars Gen. Cass of
the North in in fiwor of the Wilmot Proviso;
Gen. Cash of the South is against it. (Jen.

SLAVERY IN MEXICO.
It has been doubted whether slavery exists
in any portion of the Mexican Territory, by
law, or not. We see a Communication to
the Editors ol the Union, from Mr. Buchan
an. Secretary of State, in which appears a
Proclamation of President A. D. Jose Maria
oe Bocancora, dated September 15, 1829,
abolishing slavery throughout the Republic.
This was done, in "conformity with the dis
positions of the 30th article of the constituent
net employing the extraordinary faculties
which had been conceded to him." The
owners were ihdemnrfie4 fer their interests in
the slaves, estimated accordmg to proofs of
their qualities.
HAVANA.
Advices from Havana to the 7th inst. have
been received at New Orleans.
There was nothing stirring on the island
worthy of record. The Sugar market was
inactive.
Intelligence from St. Jngo de Cuba, an
nounces that a tremendous storm from the
North East, had lately considerably damaged
the cane and the coffee shrubs, on ihe planta
tions in the vicinity of that town. A fall of
hail took place at the time; a singular phe
nomenon, just nfier the thermometer had
been ranging from 90 to 93, in the shade.
Most of the. plantain and banana trees had
been laid prostrate by the wind.
The Queen, by Royul decree, dated loth
June, had dissolved the Transatlantic. Steam
Navigation Company.
AFFAIRS OF IRELAND.
The news by the Cambria conlirms our
ipprehensions, and commences a detail ol re
ults which we anticipated in our remarks in
he Cum menial of the 15th inst. We arc
not less the friend ol Ireland, or ol lirierty
throughout the world, because we do not join
in the excitement on this occasion, ami ex
pect the destruction of monarchy at every de
monstration of discontent. But we must be
permitted to look into the nature of the re
volt, nnd consult the precedents ol history, in
forming an opinion of the consequences of
mtriotic efforts in Ireland, or elsewhere.
From the very inetficcnt action of the pat
riots, we are coufirimd in the opinion that a
mere discreet orgrnizalion is required, before
they can make even n respectable resistance
to British power. That such an organization
will be effected, is quite problematical-
There are no statesmen in the niray. The
leaders of what is called the rebellion, are.
mostly, mouthing demagogues, whose object
is
money, consequence and power, and are
unfit lo lead a people to empire and to glory
though they may incite them to riot and imir-
der and private assassination ; and we !ir'
quite confident that the Irish rebellion will
assume, in its further progress, all the revolt
ing features which these characteristics indi
cnte.
If nothing but the heavy pressure of mih-
tary government can restore order in Ireland,
why was this demonftrationmadc 1 It would
seem, indeed, that if the leaders anticipated
success, their capacity iu deficient lo lead in
elements of a calmer nature and must be
utterly contemptible in the fury of a popu

THE PROSPECTS
The Cass Tories hold out very " flattering
pfospecV' for the people of the South, in the
electron of their Chief. Mr. Folk assumes
the entire control of the National Legislation.
He has given notice through his friends, that
such a bill witt be vetoed the independent
Representative of a free people, stop short in
their career and the bill is dropped. Mr.
Polk contends for the widest latitude in the
operations of the Veto. The Wilmot Provi
so is passed, and he doe not use rt, because
his approval of it will gain ubolitron friends
to his purty. He tells the people that they
shnll have no slavery north of 36 30, bnt
south of that line it may be acknowledged.
AH this is in keeping with the Dictatorship
Polk has in almost every case assumed, and
shows that he expects Congress to do no
more than bow to his will and record his
edicts.
Who hsrve denounced the Wilmot Proviso?
The Washington Union ant rU tram of ech

the prera. No country ever presented a more
degrading aepccl. than that Which the Cass
party exhibits in slavish obedience to the dic
tation of a Despot, rufing under the demo
cratic title of President.
In his message to Congress, on the subject
of the Oregon Bill, Mr. Polk hypocritically
quotes the language of Washington,, on the
subject of sectional divisions ; and yet no man
could have done more than Poi.it and Cass
have done to promote them. The Mexican
war and the accession of territory, have pro
duced a sectional feeling, that, we. fear, no
time will eradicate, hot will end in fhs most
fatal consequences, as they have already pro-

It is thought by wmic that the principle
upon which this bill was passed, is based up
on the Missouri Compromise. The Richmond
Daily hif: sayn :
Our readers will understand that the bill
which Mr. Polk has just signed is altogether
dillerent Irom the Mnutmri Compromise..
That Compromise inchideil all the territory
nrtlral lmi in ihe possession of ihe United
States, and provided that all north of ;iti 30
should be free soil, nnd vice versa. This bill,
however, withnnt mentioning any line, mere
ly provides for excluding slavery iu Oregon,
ll dm m mil ilraw ii line and say North of this
there shall be free territory, nnd outh of it
slavery shall be admitted. Il leaves the but
tle yet to be longbt. and il leaven a powerful
weupon in (he hands of free sod men.
For these men have seen die President,
through his press, denouncing the Wilmot
proviso, nnd yet. when brought lo tin; -test,
igning it. They will believe, in future, when
uny attempt is made to oppose the introduc
tion ol this provision, that il is nil mere talk
and they will have reason (bus to believe.
They will be stimulated in Ihc-ir purmnt'nl
their objec t by the late ('"'.irc i'l'i'tc Prcudeiit.
and ihe v will hold on to the last. . The Missouri
CtfhrprOmiso, or a bill resembling it in prin
ciple, would, fit once, have disposed of the
question. This Oregon bill opens a field of
eternal agitation The principle of the Wil
mot proviso has been acknowledged, and we
know, from the vote; (hat hereafter the North
will never resign the grOtind hfhal gained.
We regard this act of the President as the
most fatal of all acts that coirfd possibly have
been committee! ngaimt the interests of the
South: The free soil interest wanted noth
ing more? they knew that they had the
strength ; what they desired was to obtain
un acknowledgment of the principle. In
surrendering that, the President has sur
rendered all. He has laid the Couth com
pletely at the mercy of the North. He has
inflicted upon this portion of the Union a
more deadly wound than Garrison and Bit
nev coold nave eiven in the course of a whole
century of agitation. In vain may he talk
itbout vetoing future hills for establishing
free soil south of 36 30. He has admitted
the principle, and he will not be allowed to
draw the distinction.
Yet the people will be told, by the Lpco
foco orators in this canvass, that there h no
difference between this bill and the Missouri
Compromise. There ii the difference in
the world. Trje Missouri' Compromise said
Soufh of a certain line there shall he slavery,
and North of it there' shall be freedom. This
bill says, there shall certainly be Iree soil in
a certain district ; but it does not say that
there shall be slavery South of it. It gives
uji every thing, while it secures nbth'ing in
return.

A FACT WORTH KiNOWIIVfJ.
It may not be generally known that ihe unparallel
ed success of the Clickener Sugar Coaled Vegetable
l'urgativc Pifl. is owlrfg In h-gretchegree to the meth
od of compounding it. Olher remedies operate upon
(he sysujm generally, and without any reference to
ihe particular complaint they are intended to cure.'
Herce, H" ihe difficulty flappens itibo seated in the
stomach or bowels, so as to come mechanically in
acYsal collision with the medicine, the patient may
perchance experience a temporary relief. But ihe
Clickener Pill hnsa searching power ;' and on or
more of its ingredients must enter into Ihe circula
tion of the blood, add go directly lo the seat of iho
disease. For this extraordinary properly, it is indebt
ed, as we before intimated, to' that peculiar chemical
process, whfch enables tfle inventor lo extract the es
sential virtue of each particular article lhat enters
into it'nconYpoaition, and reject those wh'cli are val
ueless or injurious", for it is an undoubted fact, though
known only lo few, that every vegetable production
is more or less infested by cxtrnneouj substances
wh'ch contravene its medicinal effects. Hence
"rises ihe necessity of a nice discrimination Id the
selection of our remedies. The t-Iiy litest error In thU
particular might seive to prolonjr our misery, and
shorten the duration of our existence. Then do not
hefitote lo choose the Clickener Sugur Coated Vege
table Pill, because you nc certain oi a remedy which
will not Injure you, if It does not cure.
