oF Devoted IlEitoiSM.-The follow-
A* dent is recorded of the pilot of the steamer
ing.i
n
.h who fell a victim to his own heroism :
-
G r Tlollv of Missouri , informs us that when the
,
"
es
'
were making rap idl y towards the pilot-house
^'T Gri ffith he heard some one , the mate , he
Oi
7 inquire of the man at the wheel , if ho would
d it his post." The man gave a heart y response
"S'.
:
!
l vill " This directed his attention to the wheel-
°
f "
and he watched his bearing ; when the boat
ped , he stood there unmoved , firml y graspm"

, wheel , comp letel y enve loped in flames. Mr.
I 'lv supposed he must have burned up ; but it ap-
•*"
,:that after the boa t ceased to move , he passed
P '
h the flames and overboard . Hi* body was
" 1(f badly burned. It was broug ht to this city
i0
buried in Oakland Cemetery. This noblest of
f
n
roe, who could thus stand by his post and volun-
•Iv
'
throw awav his own life, in the hope of saving
'I'
rs from death , was Richard Mann , lon g a resi-
st of our city and vic inity . No tomb deserves a

Sound the Pumps !-We have seen an ingen-
¦
oUS invention , patented by Dr. Nelson Edwai ds, of
Vs eitv , f°r ascertaining the depth of water in the
'/id of "a vessel at any time during the passage of a
. ,lcross the ocean. It is composed of a machine
* -(h clock-work ingeniousl y arranged , and a dial
i. te From this a gntta pereha , or metallic ball ,
l cends throug h the pump-well and rests on the
,ter As the water in the. hold increases or dimin-
.|lt,s the exact amount in inches and feet is indieat-
1 by the dial , by casting a glance at which , at an y
t'oiir i" the day,the depth of water may be accurate-
ly ascertained.
Ami fit' thermore ,the machine may be so arranged
,!,(,[ when the water increases to any given depth ,
liy three , five , or seven feet , an alarum will be rung
|^t will call all hands
to the rescue!
Wo
have
een cases where such a machine on board vessels
Siting in cargo would have saved a hundred times
its cost. ,
Of the practical uti lity of ihis invention there can
be no doubt. It is of simp le contrivance , and will
endure for many years without being liable to get
out of order. And we are told the expenses will be
but moderate.—[Boston Journal.
Mbs. Wkbbtrr and the Lieut. Governor.
yesterday afternoon ,Mrs. Webster had an interview
with Lieut. Governor Eeed , in the ante-room of the
Council Chamber , at the State House, and stated to
h'm that it was in consequence of her entreaties ,that
her
'
husband prepared and sent in his first petition ,
asserting his entire ignorance in relation to the
death ol
^
Dr. Parkman , &c. She was accompanied
by three of her daug hters .two of whom also addressed
a few words to his Honor. Having heard them
tlirou«h, Governor Reed called the committee on
pardons together , and some questions were put to
the Rev. Dr. Putman , who had been requested to
attend for the purpose of explaining certain passages
in his address. The interview between Dr. Putman
and the committee was private. No decision in
Prof. Webster's case was had , and the Council ad-
journe d till Monday.—[Bsston Courier of Saturday.

The farmers in the vicinity of Baltimore , are all
commencing operations in the harvest fields, and
tliepromise of an abundant yield has never been
more general. A large grass crop has been secur-

Tire weather has been fine for corn , and notwith-
standing the lateness of the season , a good yield is

A gentleman travelling on horseback "down east"

_>«¦. Corbctt's Sai'saparilla.
Here is a statement of a case worth y attention , as the
most remarkable on record :
Messrs. E. Bkixlet & Co.. Boston.
Gentlemen : Voluntaril y I render you the followina
stat ement, which I beg you broadly to lay before the
public , trusting it may teach some who have '
been suffer-
ing m health as I have been , how to be relieved. Some
eight years since, I was attacked with violent inflamma-
tio n of the bowels. Placing m_yself under the hands o(
a physician, I adopted his medicines , and thus subdued
the inflammation. But comp laints more aggravated
th en set in. It seemed after subjugation of pain by opi-
ate s I was put under mercurial treatment to check the
opiate effects. This left my system in the most derang-
ed and suffering condition. " The tone of my stomach
entirel y fuil ed.an aecrav ntcd constip ation of the bowels
ensued", while my flesh wasted , and a confir med invalid
I was unable for any duties of life. Trusting to cure I
resulted to Townscnd's and Sands ' Sarsapanlla mix-
ture s, but my comp laints daily increased, untd I was at-
tacked by occasional bleeding at the lun gs. At this
more alarmed than ever , I soug ht Dr. John Ware, of
this city , who told me my syste m had been abused by
hiMi mercurial treatment , and advised my using Sarsa-
paVilla decoction. But persuaded by him , I resorted
to the use of '-Corbett 's Shaker Sarsaparilla ," as I saw-
it came so reasonabl y acc redited by physicia ns and
others.
After using this medicine but for some six months,
my health was full y restored me. lam able'now to re-
turn again to my duties of life , a sound , vigorous and
health y man , after having been for some eight years an
enfeebled and prostrate suffe rer. By Corbett's Sarsa-
parilla alone was my cure effected , and I recommend
it to the world , advisi ng th em to avoid mercurials if
they would avoid suffer ing.

THIS is thc age of di-otoveries. The instantaneous
transmission of news/by means of the Electric Tel-
egraph, a few years ago1, was treated with as much
doubt and derision as is/now bestowed upon the great
Oxy-hydrogcn Light an,d Heat Disscmator , of Paine.—
But the telegraph discovery is a matter of fact, wheth-
er Paine's succeeds or not. There is no doubt whatev-
er in the public mind ,,that the justl y celebrated
German Luptral Washing Fluid
is as much a matter $f fact as the laws of gravitation .
Indeed, it may well fbe considered one of the greatest
blessings of the age, as wherever it is used .it turns that
curse of all days , ^'Washing Day," into a day of
gratitude and peiice| ifthe Genui ne Washing Fluid is
used. But in consotjuence of the
RASCABiliY IIWSTA'OONS,
of all reall y meritorious articles with which the market
is flooded , it has become necessary to caution the pnb-
lic against the many base and worthless counterfeits
got up to imitate thc GE RMAN LUSTRAL WASH-
ING FLUID , as many of the miserable imitations are
put up in bottles of a similar style, and lire labels so
printed that they are well calculated to deceive the
purchaser ,and injure the hi gh reputation of a trul y valu-
able article .
Indeed the Proprietors are credibl y informed that
certain individuals , possessed of more brass than brains
are now attempting the manufacture of a spur/ous ar-
ticle, which they will endeavor to palm upon the publk
as the genuine article of J. W. Emery & Co.'s manu-
facture ! Remember , thc genuine can onl y be obtain-
