WOOD GAS??CAUTION*
BE it known that I, the subecrlber ob
tained letters patent in December, 1851, tor
apparatus for tbe destructive distillation ol
wvou and the making therefrom of tar or pitch ai
pleasure, and gas; and that in the judgment of
competent persons the invention of an appar
tua recently patented by W. D. Porter cannot be
uaed by him or any other person without infring
ing my aaid patent. And, further, that what u
patented by aaid Porter rightfully belong# to me,
as I expect to prove ere long before the United
State* Patent Office; and, further, that the use of
said Porter's invention involves also a process
which I am now claiming before the United States
Patent Office, and which has been adjudged to be
patentable to the first inventor thereof, and which
said W. D. Porter has formally disclaimed, as ap
pears upon the public records of said office, ol
which an official copy is hereto annexed, and also
a copy of hia claims.
In the National Intelligencer of the 25th instant
Mr. Porter announces that he has secured by
patent the "exclusive right to making gas from
wood." and threatens prosecution to all parties
infringing his patent. I ask how this statement
comports with the fcct of my patent of December,
1861, and how far the throat can intimidate under
sech circumstances? Mr. Porter's claim is based
upon a movable perforated diaphragm, and was
?^understood by the Patent Office,M it appear*
from the records of the Patent Office that his
claim was at fir? refused as interfering with a
prior patent to Robert Foulis, of Canada, for an
equivalent contrivance. This claim, an given be
low, and in which the perforated diaphragm is the
saving clause, is what Mr. Porter calls securing
the "exclusive right to making gas from wood.
The statement carries absurdity on its front, and
is a libel on the good sense of the Patent 0??i ce
If such a claim or right had been granted, it would
forbid every coal-kiln and charcoal tnanulactory
in the country. , >
The following copies of correspondence and
extracts from the records of the Patent Office will
show the true state of the ease:

to any other person or persons, securing to him
or them " the exclusive right of moling gas from
wood," and whether any such.claim was made by
W. D. Porter, under his application for a patent,
which letters patent were issued bearing the
above dale, you Are informed that W. D. Porter s
claims are believed to be c nlined to his appara

PROSPECTUS
or THK
"WASHINGTON MENTINBU'
T PROPOSE to publish iu the city of Washiu^
1 Ion, in September, a political newspaper, un
der the name of the WASHINGTON SENTI
NEL
In doing so, it is proper 1 should make known
the prinoiplea it will maintain, and the policy it
will advocate.
It will support cordially and earnestly the prin
ciples of the Democratic party of the United States
it does not propose to be the organ of any Depart
ment of the Government, except in so far as an in
dependent maintenance of the doctrines of that
party may represent ita opinions and express its
views.
It will not be ambitious to commend itself to the
people by a blind flattery of their ruiers. It will
seek public support by the bold avowal of the
sentiments which are common to the genuine
Democracy of the Union, and by the condemna
tion of all such as may conflict with them, from
whatever quarter they may come. Tt will seek to
be (and it will endeavor to deserve the litle) the
organ of the Democratic party of th^ United
States.
The Sentinel will maintain, as a fundamental
truth of that great party, that the States formed the
Union between them by the ratification of the Con
stitution as a compact; by which, also, they created
the Federal Government. Hnd delegsted to it,
aa their common Rjreni, the powers expressly
specified in it, with su explicit Reservation of all
others to the States, or to their ?eparnte gov?rn
ments. The exercise of any powers beyond these
thus delegated, is, therefore, an usurpation of the
reserved authority of the States bv 'h* 'arent ot
their own creation.
The Sentinel, will uphold und defend the Union
upon the basis of the rights of th? States?under
the Constitution?and thus by sedulously guarding
the latter, it will the more effectually ?tr?*npthen
and perpetuate the former.
With regard to the exercise of the |>owers of the
Fei.-ral Government, the Sentinel will take as
the t rinciple* of its action, that Congress shall ex
ercis no power which has not been delegated by
the C. nstitution, according to a strict and fair in
terpret tion of its language and spirit; and that it
shal' nt seek to attain indirectly an object through
the exei 'ise of constitutional power, for the direct
attainme t of whieh it has no delegation of power.
In othwr words, all powers exercised must be
clearly gra ted, and all granted powers must l>e
used for no uirpose. except such s? is c'earlv in
tended by th Constitution.
In respect to the internal administration 01 the
Government, the Sentinel will sustain the settled
policy of the Democratic party. It will labor to
inculcate this cardinal doctrine of Democratic in
ternal policy:?that this Government will best
promote the freedom and prosperity of the people
of the Stales, by being less ambitious to exercise
Eower, and more anxious to preserve liberty; and
y leaving to the individual States the manage
ment of all their domestic concerns?while it eon
tents itself with guarding the confederacy from
external violence, and directing the foreign policy
of the country to the promotion of the common
interests, and defence of the common ritrhis. and
honor of the States composing it.
The Sentinel will advocate such a progressive
foreign policy as will suit itself to the exigencies,
and correspond with the expanding interests of the
country. That policy should be energetic and de
cided; but should temper firmness with liberality,
and make its highest ends consist with the strictest
principles of justice. The real interests of the
country, upou each occasion demanding attention
will be its guide in the course the Sentinel wil
pursue.
The national policy of the world in this age is
essentially aggressive. In the growing sense ol
weakness of some of the nations of the Old World,
and the ambitious restlessness of others, a com
mon motive to colonial extension has developed
self.
Our settled determination to repel interference
from abroad with our domestic concerns, wil
prompt us to avoid it in the affairs of other coun
tries, unless by their foreign or colonial policy our
peace should be threatened, our security endan
gered, or our interests invaded. For when the
selfish interests of other nations prompt a foreign
or colonial policy which infringes upon our rights,
and places in the pathway of our commerce a
dangerous and unfriendly rival, such a policy must
be resisted by remonstrance, and, it need be, Wy
war.
Our foreign policy should, indeed, be defensive,
but to be properly defensive, it must sometimes be
apparently aggressive. Our administration should
be vigilant, watchful, and energetic. The world
is full of important movements, commercial and
political, deeply concerning American trade and
American power. It is time we had an American
foreign policy. We must have it. We cannot
avoid it if we would. We have larger interests, and
a greater stake in the world and its destiny, than
every other people. We occupy the best portion
of a continent, with no neighbors but a colony, and
a worn-out, anarchical despotism. We are the
olny people whose own land, without colonial de
fendencies, is washed by the two great oceans ol
the world. Our agricultural productions are more
varied and mora essential to civilised life, and t?
human progress?our mineral and manufacturing
resources more vast?ourfacilities and capacity for
internal and foreign commerce more extended
than those of any other people living under one
government. A continent, to a great extent, un
explored and exhaustless in its yet hidden wealth
it at our feet. European trade seeks the great East
through avenues which are at our doors, or must
be made through oar own limits. Europe, Asia.
Africa, and the isles of the sea, lying all around
us, look to us as the rising power, through the
agency of whose example, and ever widening and
extending, though peaceful influences, the bless
ings of liberty, civilisation, and religion, are des
tined to triumph over the barbarism and supersti
tion of the millions efthe world. And shall such
a people refuse to lay hold upon their destiny, and
act upon the high mission to which it is called?
A mission so full of hope, though so lad?n with
responsibility, wh>ch, if properly directed, must
mike our confederacy the harbinger of peace to
the world, as well as the peaceful arbiter of its
destiny.
The Sentinel will, therefore, advocate a bold
and earnest foretgn polity, such as the condition of
the country demands; but it will advocate it under
the flag of the country?nowheraelse. Its foreign
policy must be consistent with the spotless honor
and unimpeachable good faith of the country. To
be respectable at home and abroad, and to be great
in the eyea of the world, it must ask for nothing
but what is right, and submit to nothing that is
wrong. It must he liberal and magnanimous to
the rights of others, snd firm and immoveable in
insisting on its own. It must, in fine, be true to
its own interests, rights, and honor?it cannot then
be false to those of other nationa.
Such, then, is the chart by which we ahall be
guided. Independent and free, we ahall endeavor
to be honest snd truthful. The true friends ot
democratic principles we shall cordially support
and defend. Its enemies in the field or in ambush
we shall oppose, and on all proper occasions fie*
nounce.
To onr future brethren of the press we extend
the hand of friendly greeting. The Sentinel is the
rival of no press ol its own party?the personal
enemy of none of the other.
The present Democratic Administration has our
t?st wiahes for its success in the establishment ot
the great principles upon which it came into power,
and in its honest labors to attain such an end it
will find the Sentinel its friend and coadjntor.

ROSPECTU8.?SOUTHERN CONSfcR
vative Magazine.?When new aspirants
tor popular favor are announced, the public have
a right to demand the grounds upon which such
show ol title to their patronage is made. In ac
knowledgment of this, we trace the customs of
parties in the avowal of principles; of religious
sects, in the promulgation of creeds; and of per
sons in all pursuits of lile, dependent upon the
public for success, in their preparatory expositions
of plans and purpnses. The customs thus origin
ating, though sometimes abuwed, are useful and
proper, ana ahuuld not be discarded. And when,
in obedience to custom, new plans are proposed,
those approving ought not to withhold their en.
couragement, as too many do, until they see that
success is sure, for their aid may be needed to
secure it. Such a foolish policy as this jeopar
dize* tbe plan they approve, and hastens its failure:
it has defeated many important enterprizes, ana
has deprived the country of good and useful works.
If a new proposition of any kind is approved by
the public, the support of those spproving is of
right expected, their approval being solicited only
in the view that their more substantial aid will
not be withheld.
BRIEF OUTLINE OF THE PLAN OF THE
PROPOSED PERIODICAL.
The Southern Conservative Magazine will
occupy grounds but little cultivated by American
magazinists. It is believed that a field is open for
a periodical of a new and, in some respects, a
higher order than has been aimed at in oar maga
zine literature. In this belief, and with such an
aim, we announce the Southern Conservative
Magazine.
The new magazine will be national and not
sectional; claiming no merit by virtue of its es
tablishment in tbe South, but aiming at a higher
usefulness and a more general acceptability.
It will be Protestant, but not sectarian; opposing
religious bigotry or intolerance on the one aide,
and infidelity on the other? laboring in its teach
ings to advance a closer union between the several
branches of the great family of the church.
It will be political, but liberal; owing no slavish
allegiance to partiea or politicians, it will advocate
measures, not men, and will labor only for the
success of principles.
It will be progressive, yet sternly opposed to
the reckleaa spirit of innovation so rife in the
country?aiming to elevate and advance, not de
press; to reform and improve, not to destroy;
?scredly adhering to the true intent of our great
republican theory, and laboring to advance it to
its fullest development.
It will be truly American in tone and sentiment,
but will repudiate nothing foreign, merely because
so; believing that the good, the useful, and true
beloug not, par excellence, to any favored people,
but are tbe common right of all
It will be the organ of pure oonservstism.
It will encourage a high-toned literature, and
defeud pure morala in all tbe social relations of
life.
And it will number in its oorps of regular con
tributors some of the ablest political and literary
wrltera of the country.
The magaime will be printed on the finest
quality of paper, with new type, and in a plain
but superior style.
Each number will contain not lesa than 50 large
octavo pagea, made up of original articlea, con
tributed and editorial ? reviews, political and
scientific essays, romances, poetry, Ate.
We promise much for the new magazine, and
we intend to perform it all, and more, if the read
ing public will give the enterprise a liberal en
couragement

has been the editor and proprietor, and to the
publication in the City of Washington of a weekly

The material for this paper will consist, in part,

the day, home and foreign ~ the proceedings ot
Congress and the acts of the Government; lite
rary and scientific sketches and essays upon
leading and popular topics; biographical sketches

Federal; the state of the markets in the several
arge cities; the progress and prospects of crops;

country as shown by statistics, bringing down
those of the National Census always to date

management and ? arge and well selected cor
respondence, to establish st the seat of govern
ment a Family Newspaper which shall be adapted

musement and information, and political, only to
the extent of maintaining the institutions of the

guity to the large commercial cities, from the ex
tended, exciting, and all important interests that

tors.
A month!" istorical digest of events will be
embraced in its pages, valuable for future refer
