New Tom, March 28 The steamer Africa, with Liverpool dates of the 11th instant, arrived this morning. EASTERN AFFAIRS. - The steteaient that Kalnfat had been captured by the Russians was an atrocious falsehood. The latest report from that quarter indicated that the Russians were about withdrawing ram that neighborhood. cia nghung worthj of notice had occur red either on the Danube or in Asia. The Loud cui Daily News says that the Czar had sent another proposal to Vienna, which the representatives of the Four Powers ha3 found inadicissible and had rejected. The allied fleets were in Beeika Bay, and the bulk of the Russian fleet was at Sebastopol, and some ships .were at Secum Kali. Both fleets had cruisers in the Black Sea. The Russian fleet in the Baltic is push ing through the ice to beveabora. The messenger bearing the ultimatum of France and England, left Vienna on the 7th, for St Petersburg. Prussia and Aus tria have not signed this ultimatum, their policy being still defined ns neutrality for the present, and mediation for the fu ture. Intelligence from the east announces that hostilities throughout Asia had been suspended. A serious insurrection had been discov ered in Turkey, or in what is known as Wetern Turkey, and resulted in framing the draft of a Convention securing the fu ture position of the Christians in that coun try. Seven steamers had been despatched by the Turks to Egypt, to bring troops from Albania. AUSTRIA AND PRUSSIA. The last advices from Paris fully con firm the news respecting the altitude of Austria and Prussia on the Eastern ques tion. Austria expressed a perfect willing ness to join the Western powers, but Prus sia positively refused on the ground that as she was not a maritime power, she had little comparative interest in the struggle A despatch from the Austrian minister Buol, was received in Paris on Thursday explanatory of the affair, but its language was said to be obscure and unsatisfactory and indicative of a change of policy on the part of Austria. ENGLAND. The first division of 14 British ships, un der Admiral Charles Napier, was to sai from Portsmouth on the 11th for the Ball tic. It was reported that 3,000 British troops will go to the Baltic for land ser vice. The 77th regiment embarked at Liverpool on the 11th, for Turkey. Lord John Russell was quite on Fri day, and unable ta attend to his duties in the House, in consequence of which the House adjourned till Monday. AH the passengers of the ship Robert Kelly had been landed safely, and the ship itself, with the mast cut away, was got off the rocks and towed to Kingston. The ship Pantheon struck on the rocks near Holyhead on the night of the 8th, and tiunk. Eight of the crew were landed, but the fate of the remainder was not repor ted. Some excitement had been created, in commercial circles by Lord Clarendon's announcement to the Riga merchants that all Russian produce, to whomsoever be longing, and even in neutral vessels, shall be lawful prizes in the event of war. The conductors of the London Herald had been much censured for publishing the fall of Kalafat, as the rumor is thought to have done much injury. FRANCE. The French Senate had unanimously voted the loan of 250,000,000 france. The first division of the troops for the East was to leave Toulon on the 20th. RUSSIA. The Emperor of Russia, with his family, bad left St. Petersburg for Warsaw, where the Czar hopes to exercise his influence effectually against Prussia and Austria. SPAIN. Advices from Spain stale that the insur gent chief, Col. Latome, had been captured near the French frontiers and shot GREECE. A dispatch from Athens to the London Morning Chronicle states that the Greek insurrection ' was extending throughout Tbessalr. . Gen. Kanyos had joined the insurgents, the city of Arta hid been taken by assault, and the Turks defeated in several encoun ters. -Prekessa still held out LATEST DISPATCHES. 'YieKnaManktk.

' THIS Invaluable Cordial, is extracted from Herbs and Roots, which hare been found after years of experienced the most skillful Physicians, to be possessed of qualities most beneficial in the dis eases lor which it, is recommended, and hence whilst it is presented to th public, , as. mn effica cious remedy, it is also known to be oi that charac ter on which reliance may bs placed as to its safety.

Henry'sInvigoratingCordtal, is one of the most invaluable Medicines in the many Complaints to which Foiualas are subject. It assists nature to brace the whole system, check excesses, and creates renewed health and happiness. Less suffering, diseare and unhappiness among Ladies would exist, were they generally to adopt the use of this C r dial. Ladies who are debilitated by those obstruc tions which females are liable to, aio restored by the use of a bottle or two, to bloom and to vigor. YOUNG MEN. That solitary practice, so fatal to the existence of man and it is the young who are most apt to be come its victims, from an ignorence of the danger to which they subject themselves, causes NER VOUS DEBILITY, Weakness of the System, and Premature Decay Many of you may now besufforing, misled as to the cause or source of disease.

Henry'a Invigorating Cordial, a Medicine that is purely Vegetable, will aid nature to restore those important functions to a healthy state, and will prove of service to you. It possesses rare virtues, is a general remover of disease, and strcngthener of the system AS A TONIC MEDICINE, it is unsurpassed. We do not place this Cordial on a footing with quack medicines, and, as is customa ry, append a king list of Recommendations, Cer tificates, Ac, beginning with "Hear what the Preacher says." and such like ; it is not necessary, for ' Henry's Invigorating Cordial," only needs a trial to prove that it will accomplish all we say.

This grand and important Remedy has .estored strength and vigor to thousands of the most ner vous and debilitated, many of whom had lost all hopes, and been abandoned to die. By its complete invigoration of the Nervous System, the whole facu.ties become restored to their proper pswer and functions, and the fallen fabric of life raised up to beauty, onsistency, and duration, upon the ruins of an emaciated and premature decline to sound and prUtine health. Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided youths been made who have been sud denly restored to health, from the devastations those terrific maladies wnich result from indis' tion.

A vat trial of Its virtues throughout this brroad country, has proven beyond a doubt, that no medicine, or combinations yet known, can so surely control and cure the uumerous varieties of pulmonary disease which have hitherto swept from our midst thousands and thousands every year. Indeed, there is now abundant reason to believe a Remedy has at length been found which can be relied en, to cure the most dangerous affections of the lungs. Our space here will not permit us to publish any proportion of the cures affected by its use, but we would present the following, and refer further in quiry to my American Almanac, which the agent below named, will always be pleased to furnish free. whrcia are full particulars, and indisputable proofs of these statements : Office of Transportation, ) Laurens R,R., S. C, Aug. 4, 1653. j J. C. Avsa. Dear Sir, My little son, four years old, has just recovered from a severe attack of malignant bcailet Fever; his throat was rotten, and every person that visited him pronounced him a dead child. Having used your Cherry Pec toral in California, in the winter of 1850, for a se vere attack of Bronchitis, with entire success, I was induced to try it on my little boy. 1 gave him a teaspoonful eyery three hours, commencing In the morning, and by ten o'clock at night I found a decided change for the better, and alter three days' use he was able to eat or drink without pom. Its use in the above named disease will save many a child front a premature grave, and relieve the anx iety of many a fond parent. For all affections of the throat and lungs I believe it the best medicine extant. A feeling of the deepest gratitude prompts me in addressing you these lines. But for your important discovery my little boy would now have been in another world. I am yours, with great respect, J. D. POWELL, S opt. Trans. L. R. R. Rock Hill, (Somerset Co.,) N.J. July 21, 1852. Da.J.C. Avxb, Sinceyour medicine has be come known heru, it has a greater demand than any cough remedy we have ever sold. It is spo ken of in terms of unmeasured praise by those who nave used it, and I know of some cases where the best they can say of it, is not too much for the good'it has done. I take pleasure in selling it, because I know that I am giving my customers the worth of their money, and i feel gratified in seeing the benefit it confers. Please send me a further supply, ond believe me Yours, with icspect, JOHN C WHITLOCK. P. S. Almost any number of Certificates con be sent you il you wish it. Windsor, C. W., June 26, 1S52. J. C.-Atbb. Sir: This may certify that 1 have used your Cherry Pectoial fur upwards of one year ; and it is my sincere belief that 1 should have been in my grave ere this lime if 1 had not. it has cured me of a dangeroua uffvetion of the lung, and I do not overstate my convictions when I tell you it is a priceless remedy. Yours very respectfully, D. A. McCULl.lN, Atrney at Lsw. Wilksbarre, Pa., Kent 143, 1860. Da.J.C. Aveb. My dear Sir, Your medicine is much approved or by those who have used it here, and its comonsi i ion is such as to insure and maintain its reputation.

GrthxzttswYl beg; leave through ihe columns of your paper to communicate, to all those who hare time and taste lor such matters, an extract from a, letter late) re ceived from, tfij old school-mate and play fellow, the now distinguibelKFrof. Baird, ofthe Smithsonian, Institution. . I recollect him .as ix tile, iithe; , and, sine wt bor. benetratinsr the woods, and . wading the atnams, contiguous to . our Alma, Mater gathering nests asdeggs. stu: snakes, and birds, and. impaling huttf . (while the rest of us were hum drumming J over the language of Homer and Thucydides, -and the perplexities of Calculas' Integral and Differencial. With acute perceptive faculties and more than ordinary powers of generalization, Baird had added so much to the domain of Natural Science as to have won a European reputation at thirty, ' Hia ability, learning and industry gave him just claims to bis present position, and Prof. Henry could hardly have found an abler assistant amongst all the scientific young men of America' r .r He has conversed with me very earnest ly upon the specimens of Natural History from North Carolina. My engagements are so pressing and my pursuits so almost entirely in-door, that I must band over this matter to the boys. Perhaps your subscri bers will iead it to their ch ldren, and some "adult boys," to say nothing of girls, small er and larger, may do something ' for the cause. In the collection of snakes in the Smithsonian Institution, it is remarkable that only two or three gentlemen have for warded 'more specimens than are sent by two accomplished ladies of South Carolina, whom I have the pleasure of knowing, and whose opportunities for making collections are not superior to those cf hundreds of North Carolina ladies of my acquaintance. Hoping that Prof. Baird, will t.ccrpt this effort to promote the accomplishment of his wishes as a discharge from the obli gations he has laid upon we, and really anxious that the zoology of our State may have a representation in the Smithsonian Institute, I beg that you will insert this ex tract and request the papers throughout the State to copy it. Very respectfully yours, CH. R DEEMS. Greensboro', Feb. 3, 1854.k ; EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM PROF. BAIRD TO C. F. DEEMS, ''I have had it in mind for some time tou write and beg your assistance in making some collections of Natural History of North Carolina for the Museum of the Smithsonian Institution. We have a pret ty fair representation from other 'parts of the country, but nothing from N. C. What I want particularly is as complete a collec tion as you can have made, of the reptiles and fishes of your vicinity, in any number of specimens, and the commonest species of all are the most wanted. I am trying very hard to connect the Zoology of the Southern States, with that of the North, and have pretty good material, but the un known state of North Carolina intervenes, and it is ofthe highest importance, to know exactly what is in this benighted region. Nothing is easier than to tell all- the idle boys about town to pick up all the snakes, lizards, frogs, toads, tree frogs, &c, togeth er with the minnows, chubs, sunfish, perchr shinera, and the like, and throw them into a keg of spirits. Gather many small fish, a r.d preserve inalcohoL To show what use we make of such materials, I enclose a copy of our Catalogue of North American Serpents, the first of a series of which I nope to carry throughout the whole Zoo logy of North America. Every locality is given and the range of the species tbue in cluded. You will perhaps see with some surprise how often the name of Miss. P. . occurs. She and Mrs. D. have been most valuable .contributors. There are a good many other odds and ends I would like, as the small field mill moles in alcohol : any nests, eggs or skins of birds, fossil bones from excavations or banks of rivers &c. And to one particular form oflizzard, please pay especial attention. In many of the rivers of N. C. is 4 small salamandroid like animal, smooth and sli my, with four feet, and a fringed flap (girls) on each side of tbo neck, it varies from a few inches to a foot. Look sharp for this; it is sometimes called water puppy or wa ter dog. I would like as many of these as I could get They are in shape much like the water lizards (without scales) found in spring bouses and under logs. oV.. J 4 P' OFFICE WIL. & MAN. R. B. CO.
