WASHINGTON CITY: ~~ SATURDAY... .....c0+s-000++.3ume Ly 18590 —— oo SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Constitugion, commenting upon the late speeches of Kossuth on the Buropean war, expresses the opinion that so long as the war is confined to Italy, and the only dispute is whether Austria shall or shall not be expelled from Lombardo-Venetia, it is very probable that England will adopt Kossuth’s advice and observe a strict neutrality, while she arms her- self at all points to provide against every con- tingeney. The Constitution gives an interesting ac- count of the Paraguay expedition from begin- ning toend. In another article it argues that the reopening of the slave trade is no party issue in the South. < ‘The Intelligencer is devoted to Paris corres- pondence and news to-day. ———_+20e- 107 In St. Louis, the first mosquito of the season made its appearance on the 7th inst.

UA meeting of the stockholders of the Balti- more and Potomac Railroad, was held at Upper Marlboro’ on Wednesday of last week. The at- tendance was full, but the proceedings were not characterized by that spirit of harmony desirable in such undertakings. A proposition to abandon the line of road as originally surveyed, and to un- dertake the construction of a road from Upper Marlboro’, was voted down. The old Board of Directors were reelected. EVENING STAR. ——_—______ I> A Richmond paper states that there is more tobacco on storage and for inspection at that place than has hitherto been warehoused at any season, and that it has been found advantageous to call in ‘white labor to prepare it for market. Until the Present year, negro labor has been used exclusively in all the departments necessary to fit tobacco for delivery and exportation, but now, as a matter of economy, it is found that gangs of white laborers can perform the work in a satisfactory manner. eae een ate Ag I> The account of the narrow escape of the steamship Edinburg, from New York for Glasgow, from the effects of a collision with an iceberg, brings to mind the general belief that the ill-fated ship President was sunk by a similar disaster years ago. In the present case, the blow was not severe enough to send the ship to the bottom; but it was not until after the most untiring exertions on the part of the oilicers, crew and passengers, that she was kept afloat and got into St. Joln’s. ‘The captain appears to have acted with great energy and decision, and those under his care be- haved bravely. U7 At Philadelphia, on Wednesday afternoon, a large number of boats were upon the river, con- taining people anxious to see the Lancaster steam- ing up the river. Among them was a boat con- taining two married men and a single female, ait of whom reside in a part of the city known as Smoky Hollow. When the boat came in at Reed Street wharf, three women, who claim to be the wives or sweethearts of the men, ran down to the wharf, armed with paving stones. Without a word, they fell upon the woman, aud beat her into insensibility, the men declining to interfere The wounded female was, after a time, taken to her place of abode, in the viciuity of Cadwalader and Marshall street, where she now lies in a very suf- fering condition. Her misery is heightened by the fact that she is enciente. No arrests have been made, the woman appearing to be wholly without friends. ——______.. {> From Taylor & Maury we have the May number of the North British Review, containing a review of Masson’s ‘* Milton and his Times; a pleasant biographical sketch of the late Doulas Jerrold ; a graphically-told account of the ever- interesting history of Port Royal and its inmates ; a sketch of the history and development of Socin. janism ; a review of Sir William Hamilton's lec- ture on Metaphysic and Logic ; also of Miss Proc- ter’s Legends and Lyrics.

All the cases containing the seed, with the exception of one which is now on the way, have been received by that Bureau. It was the original intention of the Depart- ment, that he was to visit this country for the purpose of superintending the propagation of ‘these plants, as he had great experience in their culture; but the Department having de- cided his services to be unnecessary, he was written to to that effect. A letter from him, dated London, May 8th, has just been received by that Bureau, in which after expressing regret that he was not informed of the de- cision of the Department before, as he was on the eve of embarking for this country, adds. that nothing would cause him greater sorrow than to have the experiment now fail, after so much trouble and eapense, for want of that experience which can only be acquired in the country to which these plants are indigenous. BS CEB, Laxp Orrice Decisiox.—The General Land Office have lately given a decision in a case presented from Kansas, to the effect, that if it should be found, after the survey of the public land, that the claim of an individual who had settled upon such land prior to the survey, should partly lay in a school district, such claimant would be entitled to three months’ time, from the receipt of the plat embracing the part of the school section, in which to file for the whole claim. The joint resolution of 3d March, 1857, which grants preémption rights to certain settlers on school sections in Kansas, &c., is enlarging in its tendencies, and in- creases and extends the privileges of preémp- tion. It should, therefore, be administered liberally. The settler could not divide his filing; but he had to file for the whole claim at the same time. The neglect of this claimant to file within three months after the survey in the field, did not forfeit his right, for a part of his claim is on a school section. He is, there- fore, entitled to the greatest period of time allowed by law for filing for either class of the lands constituting his claim. The greatest period appertains, in the present instance, to the portion in the school section; and the claimant being in time for shat, and regarding the claim as an indivisible mole, he has, in the opinion of the office, filed in time. potas a Nac ay Tue Navar Acapemy Grapuates.—The fol- lowing is a list of the Acting Midshipmen who have recently graduated at the Naval Aca- demy, arranged in the order of merit, viz : No.1.

The receipts for tolls at the George- town Collector's office for the same period amounts to $1,750 77, as follows: Ascending trade, $356.69; descending, $4,361.08. The entire line of the Canal is now in excellent navigable order, and the chief superintendent and his assistants are ex- erting themselves to the very utmost to keep it so. During the week ending to-day, the yw ing shipments of coal have been made from Ray's dock: Schrs. J. B. & F.S.

Heaton, Ryan, 250 tons to New Haven; Jon Cranmer, 273 tons to Hudson; Re- becca Knight, 290 tons to Boston—inaking in the aggregate 1,555 tons. The immense quantities of the article piled up upon the wharves is really a curiosity to look at, and it still continues pouring in much more ra aly than vessels can be had to take it away. are now lying along the canal wharves not less than fifty boats waiting to be unloaded. We learn that the order in relation to the packet boats upon the canal, did not emanate from Mr. J. G. Stone, the chief Superintendent, but from the Board of Directors, and that he was directed by them to carry it into execution. Since our letter of yesterday, we have learned that the Water Board have determined to award the contract for furnishing the water pipes for our city to Parham & Co., of Boston. ‘The supply of wood coming to our market con- tinues very small, and prices have advanced to $3a$5.50 for pine, and $3.75a$4 for oak, by the cargo. —————_—_— PFoProsats FOR SUPPLIES.
