Iltn miiig Incendiarirm. lam sorry to inform you litul two fires have 'urred in Georgetown viitiiin the last ttvonty-lbur hours, of an alarming and destructive character, which are believed to have been caused hy wicked incendiaries. Last night about 10 o'clock it wooden stable liclong ,ag to Coroner Woodward was set liio to liy some diabolical person. Thu horses were sav ed, liut tlie stable, containing a quantity of hay and stiaw, was totally consumed. This morn- j ing the Ma yor of Georgetown offered a reward of s'2oo for the discovery and conviction ol the incendiary; and tins afternoon, as if in mockery j of tlie Mayor's proclamation and the civil au- I ihoritii's, the torch of an incendiary was ap- ! plied to tlie rear of a wooden warehouse, occn- j pied by Mr. I'iekerell, and situated on tlie north j side of Water street, in which there were vvliis- ; key and other infl itnmablo liquors, that blazed I oat like blue rtiin all over thu street, and which could not be put out, until tlie warehouse with ' is contents were totally destroyed. I have past seen a gentleman who was present at the ; conflagration, and he says, the loss of property . s estimated at S.aOOD, The citizens of George town are thrown into consternation and excite ment by these repeated acts of incendiarism; and it is fervently prayed by every good tili- j /en that strenuous exertions will be made hy the police to apprehend these daring incendia ries, who are indeed a terror to tlie whole com-1 inanity. \ man namcil llicliard Hlaiiil lxaiidolpli was arrested in litis city last Thursday, by (Juptain ( be! J tril, on a eoiii|il.iint issued i'ruin tlie Navy Department and directed to the Mayor, that the said Richard Bland Randolph was a dan gerous lunatic.and had escaped from the Naval Hospital at Norfolk, where he had been confin ed under the care of the Hospital surgoon.— Tiio unfortunate man was committed to our co inly jail for safe keeping'. This morniti" I!. May, Ivsq itad Randolph hrouglit before the Circuit (2ourt, under a writ of habeas cor pus, and the Court derided to remand the pri soner, and directed that a copy of tin: commit ment should he sent to the Secretary of tin; Navy, in the hope that immediate steps might be taken to removu the unfortunate man to a lunatic hospital and he properly taken care of, tho Court concurring in the humane suggestion of Mr. May, that a jail is an unsuitable place o! confinement for a poor man in the prisoner's unhappy situation. Thcro was rather a singular wedding in this city to-day. A very young couple, who had travelled post-hasto about 50 miles from Virgi nia to get married, put up at tho Virginia House, to take a little rest and refreshment.— While the aboul-10-be-wuldetl coupl < were taking a hasty meal, the brother of the bride arrived at the house to claim his sister and prevent the intended nuptials. But the bride, the britl - groom and the bride-maid slipped out of the house by a back door and repaired forthwith to an lighboring church, where, a clergyman be ing in attendance, the loving couple were law fully pronounced to bo inan and wife. It is said the brother was very much excited at this hasty and unexpected frustration of his pur pose; Imt went r.wav at last somewhat compos ed, observing that "what can't be cured, must lie endured," I lie sale of Mr. Buist's flowcio plants, by Messrs. Botelcr, Donn ft Co., was well at tended at their spacious room this afl:.- noon METROPOLIS. jCorrcsponilencc of the American Republican.] WASHINGTON, May 5. 1845. The Circuit Court has adjourned until this day fortnight. Tho Court is ttoxv sitting at Al exandria. In tho case of Byrne vs. Henderson, the jury not being able to agroe on a verdict were discharged. I wrote you late on Saturday night, concern .ng tho lire at Georgetown, which caused the destruction of Messrs. Ptekerell's warehouse and two other building contiguous thereto.— Although I wrote to you on what I considered good authority, that this fire was lite act of an incendiary, 1 am now induced to think, that it was caused by accident or carelessness in the cooper shop.

From the invariable success which | b is attended the use of Dr. LAN Ills S PATENT 'TRUSS, it is with the utmost confidence that it is of fered tu the use of the afflicted portion of the commit L uily. Tile Patentee states, without a doubt, p., at when properly applied 11 will fully answer the d„. sired purpose, and produce a radical cure, on persons under -10 years of age, and with confidence w ill gun ; ranlee a cure on all such cases, by personal npplica- j lion at bis office, at the risk of charge. The following ' testimonials from the most distinguished Surgeons ol > the day, trie respectfully submitted. Lancaster, Pa., Nov 17th, 1848. Edmund Landi*, AL D.— Dear Hii: I have, on se veral previous occasions, given my name in favor oi ymir Truss, hut, as 1 have frequently been called upon j of line, lui the same purpose, I have thought proper to ! address you, and give you my views, respecting your ! patent Truss, in detail. I have been extensively ell gaged in the application nfevcry description of Truss es for Hie hist ten years. I have professionally ap plied., in every variety of cases, the various Trusses extant, such as Hull's, Knight's, Chase's, Hisby's, the i hollows, ivory, wooden aml cushion fail; and alter a ! lair trial ot them all, I liavi found none to equal yours, |in palliative as well as cuiativc piineiples. Your ! Truss. I am happy to say, sir, combines all that other Trusses possess, lie side* iis own improvement. Hernia is much inure frequent m the community than is gen erally supposed. It is an infirmity that is at best,one of trouble ami anxiety, one that may terminate m ra pid fatality if neglected, and one in which a want of proper surgical judgment in the application of itnpro i per instruments may cost the wearer their lives. Tile | it: e of your Truss, if applied as you direct, will eii e I j in nine cases out of ten. The pivot and independent | sptinghas been a desideratum which your ingenuity has happily supplied, inasmuch as,no tnattei what the labor 01 contortion of ihc lindv may he, the I'ail is kept neatly adapted to the part from which tne nmeii j tout or intestine may escape. Again, itcan be worn with inore ease than any otliei kind. I have used it ■ in infantile cases with the most complete success, \ where every other kind have failed. I have known ] adults lo abandon Chase's, Hull's, Knight's. & others, i and rejoice in the benefits derived from "Laudis's j Truss." ho (ii : it from actual observation, and oil | anatomical and pathological principles, I cannot avoid | coolly and deliberately giving my medical opinion and i name to all who desire it. in favorof so invaluable an Instrument as Dr. I.andis' Patent't russ for Hernia. 1 am, dear sir, tru'y vours, GEORGE B. KERFOOT, M. D. Prof. MeClelltin. the most distinguished Surgeon of 1 Philadelphia, writes thus: Dr. I.andis, dear sir, I ) have taken an opportunity nf examining your Ti uss; it appears to m exceedingly well adapted to the re tention ami cute of Hernia. I have every confidence 1 ill the opinions expressed in the high testimonials of ' the distinguished Surgeons who have used it. GEO. McCI.ELLAN, M.

J. It. VV. DUNBAR, M. I)., Late Prof, of Stir., Wash. College, Balto. Baltimore, Dee. 31st, 1843. Having witnessed the application of Dr. Lnndis' improved Trusses in several cases, I do not hesitate to pronounce them superior to any thing hitherto ap plied for the relief and cure of Hernia. F. E It. HINT7.E, M. D. Carlisle. Pa., December !Btli, 1843. Dr. E. I.andis—Dear Sir: I have examined your Truss, and am decidedly of the opinion that it is well adapted to the retention and cure of Hernia, and do not hesitate to say that it is the • nly truss that will answer a good purpose thai I have seen in upwards of forty-three years experience in the medical profession.

Evidence the most con vincing—evidence that no one can doubt—fully estab lishes this fact. For the sake of brevity, we select the following from thousands. Isaac Piatt. Esq , Editor of the Po'keepsie Eagle, one of the most influential papeis in the slate of New- York, stales under iln: authority of his own name, that a young lady,a relative of his, of very delicate consti tution, was attacked in February, 1842, with severe cold, which immediately produced spilling of blood, cough, fever, and other dangerous and alarming symp toms. i'hrsugli medical treatment and care she par tially recovered during summer. Cut on Ihe. return of winter she was attacked more violently than at first; she became scarcely aide to walk, ami was troubled with cough, chills and fever every day, and appeared to ho going rapidly with consumption; at this time, when there was no sign of improvement, Mr. Piatt procured a bottle of WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, which she took, and il seemingly restored her. She got a second, and before it was half taken, she was restored to perfect health, which she has en joyed to the present time, without the slightest symp toms of her former disease.
