Paludal Miasm.—The Chemists have been
laboring to detect this subtle poison, and de
termine what it is. Doctor Ayer, of Lowell,
I has at length succeeded He finds it *o be
an ertieiial exhalation of vegetable decay,
which is evolved onl” in the presence and by
the assistance of water, its absorption thro
ttle lungs into the blood is the sole cause of the
billiary derangements which resnlt in the in
termittent fevers, so afflicting and so preva
lent in our climate. An antidote for this in
sidious venom, is one of the great desiderata
. In medicine, and the Doctor feds sure that he
has found one which not only neutralizes but
expels it completely from 'he systam. It is
put up in s convenient form, called “Ague
Cure,” and furnished cheaper than other rem
edies for this complaint; which last fact is by
no means an unimportant one in these times.

the suggestion that this would test the policy
of Gov. Magoliii.’s proclamation. Scott re

you 20 000 rren in three days.
Grow, of Pennsylvania, or Frank Blair, of
Missouri, will be the Speaker of the next

Tmstworthy information indicates that the

A movement was made on Fairfax Court
House last night, but there are no particulars

FROM MISSOURI.
St. Louis, June 5.— Pi ice has issued a pro
clamation to brigadier Generals commanding
militia districts in Missouri, that his efforts
in every section have been to prevent the trans
fer of the battlefield from the Atlantic States
to Missouri; the right of Missourians to bear
aims is undoubted—to secure this right peace
ably, himself and Hartley comptoinised on
term* alike honorable to Missouri and the
United Slates. The administration has re
moAed Hainey, but doubtless his successor,
will respect ihe compact, as for himself he
would adhere to it in letter and spirit—its
violation would be a gross indignity to the
people of Missouri, and would be resisted to
ihe last extremity. The people of Missouti
cannot be forced into submission ; if it is at
tempted, no doubt need be entertained of the
result.
