Selden, Withers & Co.—The articles in to- day’s and Thursday's Baltimore Sun, upon the affairs cf this firm, have created much excite. ment here. This was to have been expected, in view of the fact that they have made no show- ing to their creditors, for whose kindness and leniency so far, théy have expressed great gratitude, inthe cewspapers. It was expected that the notice of their suspension would be Promptly followed by some such explanation of the condition of their affairs as would sat- isfactorily explain why, with as:ets (as mem- bers of the firm declare) far above their lia- bilities, they only express in their card the hope that they will ultimately redeem ail ‘heir obligations—one of the firm publishing an additional card. which has sstiefied the com- munity that he by no means considers his pri- vate fortune respensible for the causalities of the business, in which, so far as was known from the published transactions of the frm, he was as deeply interested as any other of the parties. We now learn, however, that they have made an assignment of the assets of their late bank to Mersrs. William Bayne, merchant, of Alexandria, and John A. English, of the same city. The first isa brother of Mr. Lawrence P. Bayne, (of the firm.) and a business man of high standing, while the second is the nephew of Mr. John Withers, (of the firm,) and, we hear, is in all respects a compotent business man. We hear, also, that this as” signment does not cover any property of any one of the parties not already involved in the business of their late bank; or, in other words, that it only covers that which was found insufficient to sustain the house during their late troubles. Now, wo have to say, that we have done a!) in our power to sustain the credit of this house—ail that a newspaper honestly conduc- tel could possibly do—in the beliet that they were amply able to meet all their ongage- ments, and that it was our duty tothe commu nity to strive thus to induce them to make sacrifices to pay all demands upon them, a: presented, rather than te throw all or much of the disastrous ioss upon their aote holders. depositors and other creditors, while, as they say individually, their means «re more thay amp'y sufficient to pay their liabilities, dclla; for doilar. To us, it matters little whether they pay or fail to pay brokers who may purchase thei: notes and other evidences of indebtedness We desire to see the present note holders and depotitors so paid, and any arrangemen: made by men noturiously good for far more than they are supposed to owe, by which people o! small means rathor than themselves are madc to be the heaviest ultimate losers, will meet as it should, our earnest roprehension. While we have no reason to doubt eithe: the integrity or ability of the trustees these gentlemen have appointed, we have tosay tha it would have been far more acceptable tc their unpaid creditors in Washington. if they had consulted at least some of them in making the selection; there being other interests to be protected in sucha business arrangement, be- sides that of the suspended firm. Why is it that no detailed publica'ion a3 to the exten: of their outstanding liabilities has been made? Why none such with reference to their assets? Why, we repeat, is it, that while they privately maintain that they are fully able to pay more than dojlar for dullar in the end, they seem studiously to avoid making an authoritative showing, calculated to prevent persons of small means, among their creditors, from part- ing with their netes, &c., at a ruinous dis count? Why, in fine, is it that nothing but the bu:iners assets of the banking firm har been conveyed to the trustees, when, as al! the world know, those assets failei to prove sufficient to prevent the disasters which have so far befallen the public through confidence in their late bank? There is intense feeling ia Washington upon this subject, as losses great or emall, through confidence in this house, have overtaken many of our fellow cit- isens. Popular patience is well nigh exhaust- ed with the failure of these parties to make something like a satisfactory showing, in vien of the fact that it is very generally believed that their property is gufficient to justify stropger assuranocs as to the redemption oj their liabilities, than the mere expression of the hope that they will be able so to do in the end, which the managers of every failing bank in creation, always express for the public eye Mr. foule—The London Kzaminer, the leading liberal paper in England, in its last issue received on this side of the Atlantic, say: with great truth and force of the Soule affair. “As we last week antisipa‘ed, the French Government has found it impossible to custain its refusal of the right of innocent passage tc Mr. Soule through its territories; and having committed a great absurdity, has, on second thought, made the amende honorable to the American diplomatist. The oxcuse is that ‘he refusal was founded on a supposition that Mr. Soule meant to take up his residence in Pari:; whereas, it now finds out that bis intention was only to pass tbrough that Capi al, 62 rouse to Madrid. But, surely all this prying sonsi- bility on the part of the rulers of a great na tion, like France, is most unworthy. Mr Soule, it seems, from his first entrance acrose the Spanish frontier into France, was dogged with epies to an extent alternately annoying and amusing, and when this unpleasant sur- veillance was represented to Mr. Drouin de 1 Huys, that able and courteous minister could only express regret for that which he was not himself responsible for, and f:it thoroughly asbamed of. Thus. the French Governmeni bas made itself supremely ridiculous, and Mr. Soule, a personage of infinite importance— which was what Mr. Soule wanted.” Now, these are precisely the conclusions concerning this affair to which sensible people bave come, ererywhere. The Missouri Senatorial Contest.—We learn direotly from Missouri, from a source in which we have reason to place confidence, that the new Legislature, thoroughly canvassed, con- sists of 61 Democrat:, 60 Whigs, and 40 Ben- tonites. The latter, having abandoned all hope of the election of Colonel Benton to the Senate, are now playing their cards only to Prevent the re-election of Senator Atchison. ‘They cffsr freely to the Whigs, many of whom are known t» favor Senator Atchison’s re-eleo- tion, that if they will vote in a body for one (Whig) of their own number for Senator, they (the Bentonites) will vote in a body for such measures of State policy as the Whig party may sustain as party measures. Pay of United States Consuls.—The Rich- mond Enquirer of yesterday contains a Paris letter of the Sih ultimo, signed BR. G. 8., evi- dently from the pen of Robert G. Scott, Esq.) of Richmond, Va., who is now in the French capital. The pith of this letter is an attack upon the bill of Judge Perkins, of Louisiana, equalising the pay of United States consu!s It strikes us that this attack comes with 111 grace from the pen of that gentleman, inas- that of Rio—pays $15,000 per annum, which is far more than any United States minister Plenipotentiary receives. The writer, evi- dently, has no relish for any change in the consular system of this Government that by any porsible chance way decrease the perqui- sites of his office. So they go!

Bautrvore, Dec. 1—p. m. Incidents sometimes occur, which, though simple in themselves, when observed with serutiny may be turned to practical utility. The aim of man’s ambition should be, and I am charitable enough to hope generally is, the accomplishment of good. It is my pur- pose in writing, and yours as judicious journ alists in publishing, to give your reader: that which will not only interest but touch some cord in the complicated machinery of human life that may awaken thought and furnish nutriment to the fountain of contemplation Toward this end I am induced to speak of a simple but very suggestive incident which fell under my observation yesterday while passin; along one of our wharres A gqatntity of: o0 (ee, secured in canvas bags, had been landed on the pavement, preparatory, perhaps, to being shipped for the use of some country merchant. When at a square’s distance, saw congregated aroun: this pile of merchan- dize quite a group of idle spectators iotently iooking, as C supposed, upon some ephemeral object of curiosi'y or excitement. Aotuated by similar impulses, I nsired the ssene and found in the midst of a laughing circlo two young, rosy-faced girls, neither oc whom had scarcely reached sixtcen summers, fighting wost ferociously. They stood up like young gladiators in a miniature arona, and belabored ouch other unmercifully. Anger and ali the baser passions rose to an excited temperature, which found veotin words and blows Boast- ing bullies of the ‘+ ring” and ‘ belt’ could -carce have evinced better metal or blocdier ferocity. Blows were dealt and returned, un- til the combstants clinched, when they were zeparated by some of the more humaue bystanders who had given them audience. When the battle ended they presented a truly horrible picture. My incident has a moral, and bore it is: On inquiry I learned that these two girls were familiary kuown along the wharves. They had been schooled almost from infancy in the occupation of picking up offal. Each went forth with their baske:, tin kettle, sack, spoon and scraper to earn a livelihood, not alone for themselves, but perhaps for elder parents who sent them thus abroad. scavenger- iike, to prowl the streets. pick upcvffe grairs, :crape sugar hogsheads and mulasses barrels, and bring home at nightsuch merchandise ag, in this peculiar occupation, might full in their way. Custom, it is snid, b>comes almost se- cond nature, and habit g-ows until it afiliates with crime. These poor creatures, had been so lo: g habituated to taking what was not their own yet seldom claimed by others, that they have lust the ability to discriminate be- tween offal claimed as free to them and proper- ty belonging to privateindividuals. In thecase hero alluded to, which gave rise to the quarrcl noted above, it appears that the quantity ac- cidentally spilled on the pavement was meagre, and to facilitate operations, one of them had perforated a hole in the bag which let outa continuous flow. This she rapidly stowed away io herbasket The other, holding her- self to be a partner in the business, and equally entitled to a portion of the spoils, claimed a right to havea share of them. This was obstinatoly refused, and hence the fight which ended not only in scratched faces, bloody noses, &c , but in torn dresses and un exposure of the larceny. Such is the school in which too many females graduate for p:o- fessions of infamy. There does not really ap- poar at first view to be any cerious wrong in picking up and appropriating to useful pur- poces that which is seemirgly public property, bu: when the vagrant habit becomes a regular business, scarcely one in ten fail to become worthless and dishonest. Those who chose may argue from this the pressing necessity of such children being taken charge of by the publis authorities, and placed in a position where temptation cannot reach them. Our City Council bas been in rather a quan- dary. They have passed an ordinance au:hor ising the 4ppoio‘men* of an additional di- tector, upon the prt of Baltimore, to aid in representing her interests in the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad A more clo:e examina- tion into the enactmon's in reference to said company, has raised a question whether or not the Council has auth ity to appoint such director The member who offsred the reso- jution had only looked at an old law, which, it seoms, is annulled by a supsequent act, passed 1836 Upen making him acquainted with this fact, he said he had never seen or referred to it. His plea of ignorance, how- ever, was a good one—‘ He isa Know Noth- ing.’’ There are serious doubts whether the Council can legally create such an office or appoint such director. The matter wiil re- quire considerable Know Nothing investiga on. . Hard times are still loudly complained of One amongst our oldest, largest, and most re- spectable grocery houses suspended to-day. I allude to the house of James Sellman & Son. They have an abundance of assets, but imme- diate payments could not be met without great sacrifice, and it was deemed most judicious to saspend No man stands higher in our com- munity for all the qualities of honor and in- tegrity than Col. Seliman. It is sincerely hoped he may be able soon tc resume business again. Teererai Congressmen are now in our city en route for Wasiington. I notice quite an inerease of travel, and the hotels are woll filled. I observe amongat the recent distinguished a rivals at Baroum’s, Major Van Horn (of the Army) and lady. (oe was recently married to a beautiful young lady of the West, and is now on a bappy bridal tour. In my letter a few days ago, referring to Rev. Mr. Myars, who preached the Know Nothing sermon on Thankegiving day, speak- ing also disrespectfully of President Pierce and the presept Aduwinisiration, I uninten- tionally classe him amengst the Methodist Protestant Clergymen. ‘this was an error. He belongs to the Methodist Episcopal church. It ia fair to make the correction, as the de- nomination alluded to, would, doubtless, not desire the odium of having such a clergyman in its midst. Business generally is quiet—I may sey dull. The scarcity of money paralises all branches of trade. Breadstuffs—flour especially, is dull. Grain scarce ard firm. Brn Boxr. Avorner Secret Orpen.—The San Augus- tine Red Lander learns that a new secret order has been instituted at Lockhart, Texas, called the ‘Temple of Wisdom,’ and that the mysteries and ceremonies are conducted by a a young lady. We do not see how any Order can be secret when a young lady is cognizant of the mysteries. Of one ing, however, we are certain, if branches of ‘he Wisdom” are established in every city, town, village and hamlet throughout the Union, and oung and pretty ladies are the priestesses, all ‘oung America will soon be worshipping at je and the order will become omnipo- 4 “Temple of | ber. 1 $4, Srrenera or Sxsastorot.—The following is a list of the forts, 40. of Sebastopol—guns chiefly 68 pounders: Battery of Sebastopol.

Dr. Juartues, of Ireland, in a lecture on the spread of Protestantism in that coun- try, states that the population of Ireland pre- viou» to the year 1845 smounted to 9,000,000, of which 2,000,000 were Protestants. During the great famine, not less than one million Persons perished of starvation; while one and ahalf million have emigrated to the United States and Aus‘ralia, and the manufacturing towns of England and Scotland ; leaving an existing population of six and a half milllons. It is remarkable, however, that while this dimioution of population has been going for- ward, the number of Protestants has actually increased, so that two millions and some thirty or forty thousand now profess that faith.
