Friday evening by Prof. ILcS ff^° 18 wc^ ^nown 10 our cil'zerni frorn bis tiscientific ability and especially from his action with the recently finished State Geolo- l4iSurvey- i* on^y within the last few years ., .fce mineral resources of New-York have been k [be object of investigation ; and it is mainly ,-ji.bor of the gentlemen connected with the L?r, that we are indebted for our knowledgo of The account which Pre>f Beck gave of our j-ffa] wealth was of course general and con¬ ned; but enough was piescr.tcd to convince all ^Sjeard him that the most useful mineral sub- uxtt are found within our borders in the greal- (¦mfution; and that their devclopumcnt alone -ieded to rendvr us independent of foreign coun- ifj for many of those articles of which wo row ' ,i abroad for our chief supply, ja ascending the Hudson we come at once ug$n ¦fide granitic region, abounding in primeval lime- ; :e and in rr agnetic iron ores ; and in going far- j,,north, in the counties of Saratoga, Herkimer, ^is, Warren, Essex, Franklin and St. Lawrence ¦a ore is found in great abundance and purity, /ie districts abound likewise in the fuel needed i ;be manufacture of these ores; and thus all the gems are provided for the speedy developernent .the mineral weaith of this great granitic region f the State. In parts of this section are also flodbedi of red iron ore. From these sources rav easily be manufactured an amount of iron isiolotely inexhaustible; and yet, strange a3 it njv Appear, the largest proportion of theiton con¬ joined in this country is the product of foreign jraaces. For this fact two reasons may be n.3- ireed. The fir*! found in the geographical sit- iäii'jfi and character of the mining districts,.bej tl rugged and mountainous tracts, at a consider¬ able distance from the markets. And the fact is till farther explained by the mode of manufacture; M in all the principal furnaces the Catalan forge ¦ in u«e, tbo effect of which is to increase the mice of the iron while its quality is not improved, vfiie mining district in Orange county will bo found | . be free from some of these objections. It abounds n the richest iron ore and in the highest facilities for its manufacture, being situat ed only 40 or 50 iles from this city which would aft'otd it a per¬ manent market. Another circumstance which has had an injuri¬ ng r ffect upon the itiinirig operations of this State ;. the unsteadiness uf purpose which character¬ izes our people and induces them tegivo up mode¬ rate gains for the chance of grenter and more sud- Jim wealth. This tendency exhibits itself in the miner in his constantly searching for new veins of ?rc.leaving those upon which he has already ex¬ pended a large amount of money and labor for the % precarious chance of greater fticcess elsewhere. | Buttbo mineral resources of the Stato arc not jconfined to iron. Lead has been found in largo I quantities in the Northern and South-Western Spalts of the State, in St. Lawrence and Sullivan £j cmintioB, whsro it exists in veins of calcareous ipar traversing 'the primary reck. Other veins less strongly marked are difl u-ed through the limestone of thg Siiawangunk. section, The failures which htc heretofore attended the attempts to work these mines have not arisen from a want of ore, but from other onuses ; and especially from the .' practice of employing foreign miners in the work, \ who, though skilful in the modes used in their own ! countries, are ignorant of those adapted to our land .and character. To the same cause may ba attri¬ buted the failure of the English miners in Mexico. The oxide of manganese also abounds in Dutch- ess and Columbia counties, in a quantity which must at some day enable us to be independent of foreign importation. Neither coal nor anthracite are found in the State, and after the explorations that have been made, it is evidently usele.-s to ex¬ pert them. Still this deficiency is abundantly remedied by the great amount of peat turf, an¬ other fdsail fuel which is found to exist in inex¬ haustible quantities in the Southern and South- Western portions of the State. It burns freely, may easily be collected, preserved and transport¬ ed, and after combustion forms a most excellent lllitRUtC. Limestones are also found in the State in great abundance, many of them susceptible of ahighpolish ard most useful for architectural purposes. They ate found in Dutchess and Westchester counties, bom ;he last of which alone not far from 200,000 cubic ftet have been annually quarried and soid at ficai one to four dollars per foot. Other varieties abound in Putnam, Lewis and St. Lawrence coun¬ ties, where transition marble of all varieties and aU cvlors ia freely met. If a specimen of all the mstblesof the State could bo collected, it would seem to be a mattet of surprise that a single block or a single slab should ever be imported. But a still stranger fuct is that lime is note brought from diilunt parts of the Inited States. Thus fuel b now taken from New-York to Maine, and the iime made of it there is sold in this State, at a less price than it can be bought for on the Hudson.. 1 bis is certainly much like sending coals to New Castle or warming-pans to the coast of Africa; lor we have here an abundance of limestone for all sur wants. Nor can tho fact be explained by a superiority itl the quality of the stone, but proba¬ bly liom a more speedy and loss expensive method ol manufacture ; just as cotton is now brought horn India to Great Britain, where it is manufac¬ tured and tiie goods taken thence to India and sold there for less than that which is made at home can be afforded for. Matl and Gypsum, useful alike in agriculture and the arts, also abound throughout the State ; th- marl \% found in beds, sometime* pure, and at other* mixed with argillaceous ingredients. It is «uost abundant in the sections contiguous to the Hudson river and the Erie Canal. Gypsum, or Piaster of Paris, is mainly confined to the western counties. It was first found in Madison; and now there are annually produced from 40 to 50,000 tons. The supply is inexhaustible. Hydraulic or water limestone, of which the peculiarity is that it hardens under water, and is thus indispensibl-» ia building locks, dams, is found in Ulster, BY GREELEY & McELRATH. VOL. II. IVO. 271. Onondaga, and Niagara counties. Its discovcn bad a great effect in aiding the construction of the canal. It should be observed, that this lime, L not properly prepared, or if too long exposed ti the air, loses all its hydraulic properties ; and Prof Buck thought that the safest way to insure its ex cellence would be to have it quarried under tht superintendence of agents of the state. Mineral Springs are also abundant in the State springs of which the water contains nitrogen, sul phunc or other gases, or a solution of commor salt. The geographical distribution of these vari ous kinds of springs is worthy of attention. Spring- in which gas i- found occur mainly in the West¬ ern part of the State. In Chautauque County hy¬ drogen springs abound, Bind the water of Lake Erie, near that shore is often seen to be agitated with the bubbles containing this »as which rise to thr surface. In Fredenia, Wesificld, and Van Büren springs are found which yield a gas that burn« with a white light. As to the cause of these spring? diffeient opinions have been entertained. They cannot here, as in other countries, be connected with beds of coal; and the fact that in the recks are often found openings containing petroleum makes it probable that the ga» in these springs re¬ sults from the decomposition of this liquid. Nitro¬ gen is found less abunduntly ; in the Lebanon springs, however, it rises through water at a tem¬ perature of 73° of Fahrenheit. So at Hoosick, Chateaugeay and other places. Sulphur springs abound in every part of the State; and Prof. Beck said he was inclined to attribute them to son** general and deeply seated cause. The line of the Western canal contains many of them, as at*Avon, Sharon, &o. There is no part of the world in which acidulous springs are more abundant than in this State. Those at Sara¬ toga are especially well known, and arc unsur¬ passed by any in America, and perhaps in the world. The existene« of these springs affords evidence thai there exists below the surface of the Earth a large reservoir of this gas. Whether they are to be referred to volcanic action or not, it is clear that they can be accounted for by no cause operating near the surface. But of all these mineral springs, the brine or salt springs uro tho most ttsclul. To show the amount of salt consumed it will be sufficient to state that, in the manufacture of bread alone there are used annually 35 to 40,000 bushels of salt in this single city.while throughout the United States for the same purpose, more than two mil¬ lions of bushels are consumed. And yet this is only one of its uses. The term brine is applied to those springs, containing a large amount of salt, in which there is not enough of carbonic acirl gas to make them acidulous. They are not found east of the line which divides the Counties of Oswego and Cayuga. They abound particularly in Onon- daga. They were discovered thero about 50 years ago, when that section, now so populous, was a wilderness. The manufacture of salt has brought large revenue to the State and wealth to the in¬ habitants. The supply is absolutely inexhaustible : the proportion of salt varying from 13 to 17^ per cent. The modes of separating it are by boiling, by evaporation withont boiling, and by very slow evaporation by exposure, to the sun and air. The purest salt is procured by the last method; in the others, unless great care is used, it becomes min¬ gled with other ingredients. It is certainly a mat¬ ter of surprise that, when the very purest and best quality of salt may thus be made at home, the salt, for the Army and Navy should be procured abroad. In 1811 there were manufactured in. this State three millions of bushels. The springs probably have their origin in immense beds of fossil salt be¬ neath the surface, of which, some have been dis¬ covered in Virginia. The region in which the salt is so abundant is admirably adapted to other arts, to the manufacture of soda ash, oil of vitriol, and bleaching powder. Besides these which have been mentioned, other minerals abound in the State, such as brick clay, porcelain clays, quartz, black lead, various barytes, ochres, Sec. Few countries, indeed, are more richly supplied with mineral wealth ; and even now the sum total of the mineral resources annu¬ ally developed does not fall short of ten millions of dollars. Magnificent Explosion ok Gu.ntowder.. The great blast at Rounddown Cliff, consisting of 13,500 lbs. or eight-and-a-half tons of gunpowder, which has lately produced so groat a sensation in the scientific world, was tired ort" yesterday week. Long beforo tho explosion hour every hight, (at a respectful distance) commanding a view of the im¬ mense- cliff intended tobe operated upon, was stud¬ ded with spectators, and excellent arrangements were made by the company to avoid accidents.. The Rounddown Citri' overhung tiie sea, close to the one so graphically described in King Lear, and commonly known by the classic namu ot 4 Shak- speare's ClitV.' 1 ho original intention ot the South-Eastern Railway Company was to cany a tunnel through thut portion of tne hight this day blown down, us they have through the bowels the Shakspeate; but from the circumstances of tremendous falls having taken place on both sides, during the progress ot the woiks, und from thesei full, having affected the stability of the cliff, the expedient of blasting it was very judiciously re¬ solved on. A mine, consisting of three cells, was accordingly planned and formed by Mr. Cubitt, the engineer of the company, in the base of the cliff, into which the enormous quantity of powder above named was placed, and the ignition of the charges by the voltaic buttery was pertormed by Lieutenant Hutchinson, of the Royal Engineers, who was employed lately by Major-General Pas- ley, in operating against the wreck of the Royal George. On the signal being given, the earth trtmblcd to half a mile distant.a stifled report, not loud, but deep, was heard ; the base of the cliff, extending on either hand to upwards of five hundred feet, was shot as from a cannon from un¬ der the super-incumbent mass of cbaik seaward, and in a few seconds, not less than 1,000,000 tons of chalk were dislodged by tho shock, and settled gently down into the sea below. Tremendous cheers followed the blast, and a royal salute was fired.-. The sight was indeed truly magnificent. Such was the precision of the engineers, and the calculations of Mr. Cubitt, that it would appear just so much of the cliff has been removed as was wanted to make way for the sea-wall J and it is reckoned the blast will save the company £10,000. worth ot band labor. Not the slightest accident occurred. [Lofdon Sun.

Mr. Editor,.I observer! soin? time since in one of our New York papers an extract from a Montreal paper, accusing the. L'aited State* Gov¬ ernment of unfairness in conducting the late ne¬ gotiation* which led to the Ashburton Treaty, because they had in their possession information weakening the ground e>f their claim. There were also some very appropriate remarks of the editor upon the extract. I aho observed in the new* by the Acadia reference apparently to the same subject. Feeling a deep interest, in the honor of my country, I take the liberty of addressing this ar¬ ticle to you. for the purpose of meeting the slanders thu3 thrown out. The argument against us, as I understand it, is, that Dr. Franklin is said to have marked out with a red line upon a map of North Americn, the boundary line of the United States, which was nearly the same as the boundary line claimed by Great Britain. Now. I have in my possession a large English jnap, which is thus entitled, " A new and corsect map of North America, with the West India Islands, divided according to the last Treaty of Peace, concluded at. Paris, 10th February, 170?-, wherein arc particularly distinguished the several provinces and colonies which comprise the British Empire, according to the latest surveys, and cor rected from the original materials of Gov. Pou- nall. Num. Paris, 1777. Lonstun : Robert Saver, No. 03 Fleet street. As the Act directs: 10th January, 1777.*' The title of the map fully sets forth its right to be believed. Now, on this map the boundary line of Maine is marked out along a line of highlands, running precisely where we claim the boundary line to be. And there is a second line of highland? further south.the same which the English now claim to have been the highlands intended in the\ Treaty. It is published, as you perceive, in J777. one year after the Declaration of Independence, and after we became stales.whose boundaries could not have been altered by this change of gov¬ ern ment. If. therefore, a boundary' line, said to have U*.en marked out by one man, is any argument against u?. certainly this public map, drawn from the Treuty with France, and Gov. Pownall's docu¬ ments, is a much stronger argument in our favor. Very truly yours, B. S. B. Travel« in the Weat.

HTEffG, FEBRUAR1? 27, 1843. Thr Troy Cntrt»trophe. The Troy Whig ha* the following conjectural explanation of the late Lanei Slide at Troy.. Whether founded in truth or not it merit* attention : All those who have visited the land slide have been surprised at the large extent of surface cov¬ ered by it. when compared with the size of the opening in ihe side of the hill. It seems impossi¬ ble that so vast aquantitv of earth could have been taken from a spot of such narrow dimensions.. j And when aii the facts in relation to the land slide are ascertained, we believe that it will be acknowl- edged that only a small portion of the earth which now covers a surface of many thousand square yards, could have hiiien from trie side of the hill. A gentleman who was standing, at the time of tho disaster, on the level ground at the base of the hill, formed by the slide of 1337, informs us that the lirst movement of earth proceeded from the level ground and not from tha hill. That the level ground was thrown up ns if by som° internal force, and thrown over like the waves of the sea. That the hill d:d not begin to fail untii after this up¬ heaval of lev^l ground ; and that the first move¬ ment of the earih was accompanied by an explo¬ sion like that of gunpowder. From the state¬ ments of the occupants of the houses in the vicin¬ ity it also appears that their houses were much shaken ns if by an earthquake.their furniture moved, &c. ifec. It seems probable, therefore, that the house* which were destroyed, were overwhelmed, not by the earth from the hill, but by th? breaking up of the earth on the lovel at the base of the hill. The cause of the upheaval «f the earth in this unusual manner, was probably produced in the fol¬ lowing way : For two or three days previous t<s the land-slide of 1337, a stream of water was perceived issuing from the face of the hill, about halfway from the r*ase to the summit. This stream continued to run for some time after the slide, when it ceased to flow. A day or two previous to the lntc slide a stream of water also broke out near the same spot whence the stream issued in 1337, and still con ttnues to flow. Our belief is that both land sides have been caused by the action of water, which has run under ground at the foot of tho hill, until >.) large a quantity has accumulated, that, aided bv the pressure constantly exerted by the stream, it has burst up the earth above it. Tho.-e who arc acquainted with tho prinsiple of the hydrostatic bellows, and who are aware of the great force exerted by wtitcr when properly ap plied, will easily perceive thut our hypothesis may be correct. To illustrate it, let us suppose a reservoir to be constructed under the surface of the level ground at the foot of the hill; and this reservoir to bo fill ed by the stream of water which runs from the hill. When the reservoir is full, ill* water having no power to overflow on account of the superincumbent earth, and its volume being constantly augmented by the stream pouring in from above, will of course force for itself a passage in the direction in which it can the most easily be effected. This direction would of course be upward, and could only be ac quired by throwing up the earth with ttemertdous force. We have not n copy of Basil Hall's Patchwork at hand, but it strikes us, that it contains several instances of similar disasters »n Switzerland, which the author supposes to have'been produced by hy¬ drostatic pressure.

The account which Pre>f Beck gave of our

j-ffa] wealth was of course general and con¬

ned; but enough was piescr.tcd to convince all^Sjeard him that the most useful mineral sub-uxtt are found within our borders in the greal-(¦mfution; and that their devclopumcnt alone-ieded to rendvr us independent of foreign coun-

ifj for many of those articles of which wo row'

¦fide granitic region, abounding in primeval lime-; :e and in rr agnetic iron ores ; and in going far-j,,north, in the counties of Saratoga, Herkimer,^is, Warren, Essex, Franklin and St. Lawrence¦a ore is found in great abundance and purity,/ie districts abound likewise in the fuel neededi ;be manufacture of these ores; and thus all thegems are provided for the speedy developernent.the mineral weaith of this great granitic regionf the State. In parts of this section are alsoflodbedi of red iron ore. From these sources

rav easily be manufactured an amount of ironisiolotely inexhaustible; and yet, strange a3 itnjv Appear, the largest proportion of theiton con¬

joined in this country is the product of foreignjraaces. For this fact two reasons may be n.3-

ireed. The fir*! i» found in the geographical sit-iäii'jfi and character of the mining districts,.bejtl rugged and mountainous tracts, at a consider¬able distance from the markets. And the fact istill farther explained by the mode of manufacture;M in all the principal furnaces the Catalan forge¦ in u«e, tbo effect of which is to increase the

mice of the iron while its quality is not improved,vfiie mining district in Orange county will bo found| . be free from some of these objections. It aboundsn the richest iron ore and in the highest facilitiesfor its manufacture, being situat ed only 40 or 50iles from this city which would aft'otd it a per¬

manent market.Another circumstance which has had an injuri¬

ng r ffect upon the itiinirig operations of this State;. the unsteadiness uf purpose which character¬izes our people and induces them tegivo up mode¬rate gains for the chance of grenter and more sud-

Jim wealth. This tendency exhibits itself in theminer in his constantly searching for new veins of?rc.leaving those upon which he has already ex¬

pended a large amount of money and labor for the% precarious chance of greater fticcess elsewhere.| Buttbo mineral resources of the Stato arc not

jconfined to iron. Lead has been found in largoI quantities in the Northern and South-WesternSpalts of the State, in St. Lawrence and Sullivan£j cmintioB, whsro it exists in veins of calcareous

ipar traversing 'the primary reck. Other veins less

strongly marked are difl u-ed through the limestoneof thg Siiawangunk. section, The failures whichhtc heretofore attended the attempts to workthese mines have not arisen from a want of ore,but from other onuses ; and especially from the

.' practice of employingforeign miners in the work,\ who, though skilful in the modes used in their own! countries, are ignorant of those adapted to our land.and character. To the same cause may ba attri¬buted the failure of the English miners in Mexico.The oxide of manganese also abounds in Dutch-

ess and Columbia counties, in a quantity whichmust at some day enable us to be independent offoreign importation. Neither coal nor anthraciteare found in the State, and after the explorationsthat have been made, it is evidently usele.-s to ex¬

pert them. Still this deficiency is abundantlyremedied by the great amount of peat turf, an¬

other fdsail fuel which is found to exist in inex¬haustible quantities in the Southern and South-Western portions of the State. It burns freely,may easily be collected, preserved and transport¬ed, and after combustion forms a most excellentlllitRUtC.

Limestones are also found in the State in greatabundance, many of them susceptible of ahighpolishard most useful for architectural purposes. Theyate found in Dutchess and Westchester counties,bom ;he last of which alone not far from 200,000cubic ftet have been annually quarried and soid at

ficai one to four dollars per foot. Other varietiesabound in Putnam, Lewis and St. Lawrence coun¬

ties, where transition marble of all varieties andaU cvlors ia freely met. If a specimen of all themstblesof the State could bo collected, it wouldseem to be a mattet of surprise that a single blockor a single slab should ever be imported. But a

still stranger fuct is that lime is note broughtfromdiilunt parts of the Inited States. Thus fuelb now taken from New-York to Maine, and theiime made of it there is sold in this State, at a lessprice than it can be bought for on the Hudson..1 bis is certainly much like sending coals to NewCastle or warming-pans to the coast of Africa;lor we have here an abundance of limestone for allsur wants. Nor can tho fact be explained by a

superiority itl the quality of the stone, but proba¬bly liom a more speedy and loss expensive methodol manufacture ; just as cotton is now broughthorn India to Great Britain, where it is manufac¬tured and tiie goods taken thence to India and soldthere for less than that which is made at home canbe afforded for.Matl and Gypsum, useful alike in agriculture

and the arts, also abound throughout the State ;th- marl \% found in beds, sometime* pure, and atother* mixed with argillaceous ingredients. It is«uost abundant in the sections contiguous to theHudson river and the Erie Canal. Gypsum, or

Piaster of Paris, is mainly confined to the western

counties. It was first found in Madison; and now

there are annually produced from 40 to 50,000tons. The supply is inexhaustible. Hydraulic or

water limestone, of which the peculiarity is thatit hardens under water, and is thus indispensibl-»ia building locks, dams, is found in Ulster,

Onondaga, and Niagara counties. Its discovcnbad a great effect in aiding the construction of thecanal. It should be observed, that this lime, Lnot properly prepared, or if too long exposed tithe air, loses all its hydraulic properties ; and ProfBuck thought that the safest way to insure its ex

cellence would be to have it quarried under thtsuperintendence of agents of the state.Mineral Springs are also abundant in the State

springs of which the water contains nitrogen, sulphunc or other gases, or a solution of commorsalt. The geographical distribution of these various kinds of springs is worthy of attention. Spring-in which gas i- found occur mainly in the West¬ern part of the State. In Chautauque County hy¬drogen springs abound, Bind the water of Lake Erie,near that shore is often seen to be agitated withthe bubbles containing this »as which rise to thrsurface. In Fredenia, Wesificld, and Van Bürensprings are found which yield a gas that burn«with a white light. As to the cause of these spring?diffeient opinions have been entertained. Theycannot here, as in other countries, be connectedwith beds of coal; and the fact that in the recksare often found openings containing petroleummakes it probable that the ga» in these springs re¬

sults from the decomposition of this liquid. Nitro¬gen is found less abunduntly ; in the Lebanonsprings, however, it rises through water at a tem¬

perature of 73° of Fahrenheit. So at Hoosick,Chateaugeay and other places.

Sulphur springs abound in every part of theState; and Prof. Beck said he was inclined toattribute them to son** general and deeply seatedcause. The line of the Western canal containsmany of them, as at*Avon, Sharon, &o. There isno part of the world in which acidulous springs are

more abundant than in this State. Those at Sara¬toga are especially well known, and arc unsur¬

passed by any in America, and perhaps in theworld. The existene« of these springs affordsevidence thai there exists below the surface of theEarth a large reservoir of this gas. Whether theyare to be referred to volcanic action or not, it isclear that they can be accounted for by no cause

operating near the surface.But of all these mineral springs, the brine or

salt springs uro tho most ttsclul. To show theamount of salt consumed it will be sufficient to

state that, in the manufacture of bread alone thereare used annually 35 to 40,000 bushels of salt inthis single city.while throughout the UnitedStates for the same purpose, more than two mil¬lions of bushels are consumed. And yet this is

only one of its uses. The term brine is applied to

those springs, containing a large amount of salt,in which there is not enough of carbonic acirl gasto make them acidulous. They are not found east

of the line which divides the Counties of Oswegoand Cayuga. They abound particularly in Onon-daga. They were discovered thero about 50 yearsago, when that section, now so populous, was a

wilderness. The manufacture of salt has broughtlarge revenue to the State and wealth to the in¬habitants. The supply is absolutely inexhaustible :

the proportion of salt varying from 13 to 17^ percent. The modes of separating it are by boiling,by evaporation withont boiling, and by very slow

evaporation by exposure, to the sun and air. The

purest salt is procured by the last method; in the

others, unless great care is used, it becomes min¬

gled with other ingredients. It is certainly a mat¬

ter of surprise that, when the very purest and best

quality of salt may thus be made at home, the salt,

for the Army and Navy should be procured abroad.In 1811 there were manufactured in. this Statethree millions of bushels. The springs probablyhave their origin in immense beds of fossil salt be¬neath the surface, of which, some have been dis¬covered in Virginia. The region in which thesalt is so abundant is admirably adapted to otherarts, to the manufacture of soda ash, oil of vitriol,and bleaching powder.

Besides these which have been mentioned, otherminerals abound in the State, such as brick clay,porcelain clays, quartz, black lead, various barytes,ochres, Sec. Few countries, indeed, are more

richly supplied with mineral wealth ; and even

now the sum total of the mineral resources annu¬

ally developed does not fall short of ten millionsof dollars.

Magnificent Explosion ok Gu.ntowder..The great blast at Rounddown Cliff, consisting of13,500 lbs. or eight-and-a-half tons of gunpowder,which has lately produced so groat a sensation inthe scientific world, was tired ort" yesterday week.

Long beforo tho explosion hour every hight, (at a

respectful distance) commanding a view of the im¬

mense- cliff intended tobe operated upon, was stud¬ded with spectators, and excellent arrangementswere made by the company to avoid accidents..The Rounddown Citri' overhung tiie sea, close to

the one so graphically described in King Lear, and

commonly known by the classic namu ot 4 Shak-speare's ClitV.' 1 ho original intention ot theSouth-Eastern Railway Company was to cany a

tunnel through thut portion of tne hight this dayblown down, us they have through the bowelsthe Shakspeate; but from the circumstances oftremendous falls having taken place on both sides,during the progress ot the woiks, und from theseifull, having affected the stability of the cliff, theexpedient of blasting it was very judiciously re¬

solved on. A mine, consisting of three cells, was

accordingly planned and formed by Mr. Cubitt,the engineer of the company, in the base of thecliff, into which the enormous quantity of powderabove named was placed, and the ignition of thecharges by the voltaic buttery was pertormed byLieutenant Hutchinson, of the Royal Engineers,who was employed lately by Major-General Pas-ley, in operating against the wreck of the RoyalGeorge. On the signal being given, the earth

trtmblcd to half a mile distant.a stifled report,not loud, but deep, was heard ; the base of the

cliff, extending on either hand to upwards of fivehundred feet, was shot as from a cannon from un¬

der the super-incumbent mass of cbaik seaward,and in a few seconds, not less than 1,000,000 tons

of chalk were dislodged by tho shock, and settled

gently down into the sea below. Tremendous cheers

followed the blast, and a royal salute was fired.-.

The sight was indeed truly magnificent. Such was

the precision of the engineers, and the calculationsof Mr. Cubitt, that it would appear just so much

of the cliff has been removed as was wanted to

make way for the sea-wall J and it is reckoned the

blast will save the company £10,000. worth ot

band labor. Not the slightest accident occurred.[Lofdon Sun.

For ihr Tribnnr.The Anbbnrton Treaty.

Mr. Editor,.I observer! soin? time since inone of our New York papers an extract from a

Montreal paper, accusing the. L'aited State* Gov¬ernment of unfairness in conducting the late ne¬

gotiation* which led to the Ashburton Treaty,because they had in their possession informationweakening the ground e>f their claim. There were

also some very appropriate remarks of the editorupon the extract. I aho observed in the new*

by the Acadia reference apparently to the same

subject.Feeling a deep interest, in the honor of my

country, I take the liberty of addressing this ar¬

ticle to you. for the purpose of meeting the slandersthu3 thrown out. The argument against us, as Iunderstand it, is, that Dr. Franklin is said to havemarked out with a red line upon a map of NorthAmericn, the boundary line of the United States,which was nearly the same as the boundary lineclaimed by Great Britain.Now. I have in my possession a large English

jnap, which is thus entitled, " A new and corsect

map of North America, with the West IndiaIslands, divided according to the last Treaty ofPeace, concluded at. Paris, 10th February, 170?-,wherein arc particularly distinguished the severalprovinces and colonies which comprise the BritishEmpire, according to the latest surveys, and cor

rected from the original materials of Gov. Pou-nall. Num. Paris, 1777. Lonstun : Robert Saver,No. 03 Fleet street. As the Act directs: 10thJanuary, 1777.*'The title of the map fully sets forth its right to

be believed. Now, on this map the boundary lineof Maine is marked out along a line of highlands,running precisely where we claim the boundaryline to be. And there is a second line of highland?further south.the same which the English now

claim to have been the highlands intended in the\Treaty. It is published, as you perceive, in J777.one year after the Declaration of Independence,and after we became stales.whose boundariescould not have been altered by this change of gov¬ern ment.

If. therefore, a boundary' line, said to have U*.enmarked out by one man, is any argument againstu?. certainly this public map, drawn from theTreuty with France, and Gov. Pownall's docu¬ments, is a much stronger argument in our favor.

HTEffG, FEBRUAR1? 27, 1843.

Thr Troy Cntrt»trophe.The Troy Whig ha* the following conjectural

explanation of the late Lanei Slide at Troy..Whether founded in truth or not it merit* attention :

All those who have visited the land slide havebeen surprised at the large extent of surface cov¬

ered by it. when compared with the size of theopening in ihe side of the hill. It seems impossi¬ble that so vast aquantitv of earth could have beentaken from a spot of such narrow dimensions..

j And when aii the facts in relation to the land slideare ascertained, we believe that it will be acknowl-edged that only a small portion of the earth whichnow covers a surface of many thousand squareyards, could have hiiien from trie side of the hill.A gentleman who was standing, at the time of

tho disaster, on the level ground at the base of thehill, formed by the slide of 1337, informs us thatthe lirst movement of earth proceeded from thelevel ground and not from tha hill. That the levelground was thrown up ns if by som° internal force,and thrown over like the waves of the sea. Thatthe hill d:d not begin to fail untii after this up¬heaval of lev^l ground ; and that the first move¬ment of the earih was accompanied by an explo¬sion like that of gunpowder. From the state¬ments of the occupants of the houses in the vicin¬ity it also appears that their houses were muchshaken ns if by an earthquake.their furnituremoved, &c. ifec.

It seems probable, therefore, that the house*which were destroyed, were overwhelmed, not bythe earth from the hill, but by th? breaking up ofthe earth on the lovel at the base of the hill.The cause of the upheaval «f the earth in this

unusual manner, was probably produced in the fol¬lowing way :

For two or three days previous t<s the land-slideof 1337, a stream of water was perceived issuingfrom the face of the hill, about halfway from ther*ase to the summit. This stream continued to run

for some time after the slide, when it ceased to

flow. A day or two previous to the lntc slide a

stream of water also broke out near the same spotwhence the stream issued in 1337, and still con

ttnues to flow. Our belief is that both land sideshave been caused by the action of water, whichhas run under ground at the foot of tho hill, until>.) large a quantity has accumulated, that, aided bvthe pressure constantly exerted by the stream, ithas burst up the earth above it.

Tho.-e who arc acquainted with tho prinsiple ofthe hydrostatic bellows, and who are aware of thegreat force exerted by wtitcr when properly applied, will easily perceive thut our hypothesis maybe correct.To illustrate it, let us suppose a reservoir to be

constructed under the surface of the level groundat the foot of the hill; and this reservoir to bo filled by the stream of water which runs from the hill.When the reservoir is full, ill* water having no

power to overflow on account of the superincumbentearth, and its volume being constantly augmentedby the stream pouring in from above, will of course

force for itself a passage in the direction in whichit can the most easily be effected. This directionwould of course be upward, and could only be ac

quired by throwing up the earth with ttemertdousforce.We have not n copy of Basil Hall's Patchwork

at hand, but it strikes us, that it contains severalinstances of similar disasters »n Switzerland, whichthe author supposes to have'been produced by hy¬drostatic pressure.

LEiTER FROM DH. HK*dJNGWAY.Whitney's Point, April 8, bvOT.

Dear Sir;.Believing your Arabian Babani to We one ofdie best family medicines in Use, I slat - the lollowing cav,viz: Harry Green, of Triangle, Broome Co., about thirtyyears of age, during the summer of 1835 became afflictedwiUi the Ague and Fever, which continued iu ravagesmore than a year, and reduced him to a very delicate stateot health. In April, 135-S, it terminated in a suppuratingtumor on the back, in the region ot ihe kidneys; whicb,vnbeing punctured, discharged a large quantity of fetid un¬healthy matter, and trom that time it assumed a hstulou«form, penetrating two or three inebe» into the flesh of theback. He tried a great variety of remedies, besides havingthe advice of the best physicians, without the bast benehi.and it was pronounced incurable. In ti.e fall of 1837 he up-lied to me, and, after examining the case, 1 *T«*« n'ni *

small bottle of your Araaian Balsam, directing him to ap¬ply it ri^hdy; and after using three or four half botttes hewas cured, aad I am authorized to slate that b« health Ufully restored, and that no vesiigeof disease remains.
