Higbee, who was addressing her, and asked his advice as to th: cond visit. I then came to a knowledge of the facts, and went immediately to Joe, and said to him, “ Joseph, you area Master Mason, and Nancy is a Master Mason's daugh ter; so stay your hand, or y uw will get into trouble.” Jow you are my enemy, and wish to oppose m id 1, “1am hot your enemy, but you had better stop where you are I then went to Col.

He did so, and she went down. Joe was there, and took her into a private room, locked the door. and commenced by telling her that he had long loved her, and had asked the Lord for her, and that it was his holy will that he should have her—he told her that it would not prevent her from marrying any other person—that he h the blessings of Jacob granted to hi ind that all was right ; he desired to kiss her, and wished her to kiss him, but Joe could n’t come it. She sai{ she would alarm the neighbors if he did not open the door and let her out—he did so, and requested Mra. Hyde to explain matters to her. Joe swore her to eternal secrecy.

The celebra- ted German band of yeur city, under the lead of Schneider, the prince of music, has arrived, and we were “tripping the light fantastic toe” Jast evening to their inspiring strains, at the United States Hotel They are engaged exclusively, as 1 understand, for this magnificent establishment, and play at dinner, tea, and every evening, either in the fassembly or drawing room—its efleet, through its shady groves and spacious halls, cannot be appreciated, without being heard. ‘The distinction among the visitants, at the differ- ent hotels here, is more marked this season than ever. Congress Hall has given up its rivalry with the United States, and has gone into competition with the smaller and more common houses. ‘The that it has more company than any house here, except the United States, and of the same cla: that you formerly saw lounging upon the piuzzas of the Montgomery, American, and Adelphi hotels. ‘They consist principally of the substantial yeoma , from the neighboring States, Vermont, Ma: husetts and New Hampshire, and are, to allappear- ance, a family of real “beef eaters.” ‘They will put more pork and beans and Congress water inside their jackets, I'll warrant you, than they will either old port or champagne. ‘It is amusing to see some of your city chips, who stop at second and third rate hotels, sit, and smoke, and walk about the garden of the United States, and to see how quick porters and waiters can detect them.

Bavaimorg, July 18, 1812. Memoranda of a Trip to the Virginia Springs—The various Routes—The Expenses, §c. Mr. James G. Bennerr— Dear Sin— I propose to fgive a few extracts from a journal, and some account of a trip to the Virginie Springs last season. If deemed of sufficient interest to the travelling public to meet an insertion, you are at liberty to do so. I shall inflict only some half do- zen papers on the indulgence of your readers. There are three routes to the Virginia Springs, each of them desirable, from the points of interest— the mountain scenery and landscape views present- ed by them. ‘The first and most expeditious is from Baltimore to Harper’s Ferry—thenee to Winches- ter by railroad. From this point accommodation coaches are furnished, and you have an excellent turnpike by the way of Strasburg, Woodstock and Newmarket, to Hatrgodtie, ig down the beautiful and highly cultivate «Valle of the She- nandoah,” and through the far-famed domain of the celebrated beef speculator, Steinberger, extending six miles on either side of astream by which it 1s watered. The valley isperhene amile ora mile and a half wide, gently “undulating, and near the cen- tre is an eminence and a beautitul grove, on which is erected the Mansion House. The property has been recently sold, and is now owned} by Mr. J.G. Meem, of Lynchburg, at a cost of $85,000. From Harrisonburg, leaviag Staunton some fifteen miles to the left, you pass through the most highly culti- vated and “beautiful portion of Augusta county, ssing a branch of the Alleghany Mountain at or near Cloverdale, and reaching the Warm Springs. Six miles farther are the Hot Springs—thence an easy day’s ride, forty-five miles, to the White Sul- phur. The railroad from Baltimore to Winchester isan excellent one, and is built on the banks of the Patapsco, a branch of which it follows to its source, The road passes through a highly cultivated, and amidst the mountains, a picturesque country. | Elli- cott’s Mills. and Harper’s Ferry are the chief points of interest. Of this last, however, though much to admire, those "who have read “Mr. Jeflerson’s Notes on Virginia,” will be disappointed. The second, or middle route, viz: Washington, Fredericksburg, and by railroad to the junction oj the Richmond and Charlottsville road, the traveller stopping one night at the Junction Hotel, (by the way, a common building, but excellent fair and at- tention,) the next morning, at 6 0’clock,by railroad, to, Gordonsville—thence by stages, twenty-two miles, to Charlottsville, passin, through Staunton,to the Warm S) rings. ‘The hote Is on the route are well kept, and sufficient time isallowed for sleep and re- freshment. The stages are northern built, large and comfortable, and not unfrequently six horses are at- tached. The finest grain growing portion of the State is traversed in this route, and the crossing of the Blue Ridge and the Warm Spring Mountain | alone is well worth the trip. In either route, how- | ever, you cross the Warm Spring Mountain. | _ The third route is from Richmond by canal to | Lynchburg, thence stage, dining at the Natural Bridge, and stopping all night at Dibbrell’s springs, the next day dining at the junction of the northern route—the "celebrated Callaghan’s—at all these places company isto be found, more especially in | the month of August and September, when the ho- | tels at the Springs are crowded.

Portsmouth—Its Harbor, §-c.—Banks—Sailing of the Congress Frigate—Almost a Duel. Eprror or THE N. Y. Heranp:— Dear Sr Among the whole host of correspondents to the Herald from different parts of the Union, I do not see that you have any from this place, notwith standing your paper is pretty extensively circulated here. I will therefore take the responsibility of send- ing you a few items, and hope they may not be un- interesting to some of your numerous readers. ‘Well, then, this you are aware is the only seaport town in the state, numbering about 9000 inhabitants more or less, situated on the west bank of the Pis- catugua, two miles from the sea—its harbor one of the best in all creation. Many of our citizens are engaged in the freighting and fishing business, em- ploying from 30 to 40 ships; some of the finest in the country, and I don’t know how many small craft We have banks and hotels, meeting houses and railroads, and everything else that serve to make a big town. Financiers, too lots of em. Speaking of banks, three in this town within a year past have given notice that they intend to wind up their con- cerns as soon as their charters expire, vz. the New Hampshire, the New Hampshire Union, and the Portsmouth. Withdrawing from the circulation $400,000 to $500,000 worth of bills, that were equal to specie in any part of New FE land. Well, we shall have the fess to count, that’sall. A The U.S frigate Congress sailed this morning for the Mediterranean. She was launched about a year ago from our Navy Yard, and is pronounced by judges in such matters to be one of the best ships in every respect that ever floated. She was built under the superintendence and direction of Master P., who stands Alin his profession. She is manned by as fine a set of fellows as I ever saw, with their great long swords, and their swabs and gold lace, and brass buttons (the captain alone excepted) Gracious! I don’t believe the dogs and cats in these parts will get over their fright for years. They really astenished the natives; not so with some of the ladies, for they warn’t afraid a mite; they would go right up to ’em in the street, and take hold of their arms just as though they were only men instead of officers, and hug ’em so close and k— ‘em, and all for nothing. They have goye, and there has not been one engagement that we know of, and if there had, we shook have heard of it immediately, for what one knows here everybody knows. I really hope that Mr. Secretary Upshur will have consider. ation enough, the next time he sends officers here, to send some that are not engaged, for it is really distressing to see the poor creatures; it is, really.— Nothing but a blue coat and bnght buttons will answer. ati We came near having some fun in the shape of a duel a few days since. A gentleman at one of our hotels missed some money from his room, and sus- icion of the theft fell upon a young man here. A jeutenant took it up, and pistols for two was the consequence, but the police getting a hint of it, the matter ended. Yours, Lead Newport anp New Haven.—Both of these are charming places. At the latter the Tontine Hotel, kept by Mr. Allis, is a delightful summer residence. At the former, every hotel is first rate, as far as we know, and the sea breezes and beef cannot be beat. . Dreaprut Exrioston axp Loss or Lire.—We learn from a passenger from Boston, that the steam- er Flushing, plying between Boston and Nahant, while landing her passengers, the flue collapsed, and twelve persons were hurried into eternity. Svicior.—Garland Anderson, a wealthy planter, residing near Hernando, Miss., committed suicide on the 2d instant. It is supposed thathe was in a state of mental derangement. DistinewueED Visrrers.—A deputation from the Miami tribe of Indians of the North West, passed through Baltimore on Thursday en route to Wash- ington. Several ofticers of the Gomer, and two or three of the Commissioners which came in her, also passed through that city to Washington. t Latest rrom Yucatax,—Our last papersfrom Yucatan contain an official order from the Mexican capital, direct- ing the authorities of Tobasco to close the ports of that State to all t with Yucatan. From this it would ap- pear that Saata Anna really looks upon Yucatan as an uly of Texas; and it remains to be seen if Com. Moore vill permit the centralists to bear down by the unpre- en ling States rights men of the Peninsula. Sentmana’ has been appointed Governor and commanding General of Tobasco; and he announces that 2000 troops (wit! $100,000 for their ex; ) have been marched from Vern Cruz, to beemployed in Brin ing Foceian titers, sod troops are to follow in short order for thy at cision ‘and object. The Yucatan government ‘have become somewhat alarmed from these announce- ments, and have commenced fortifying the island of Car. in the last resort. “May heaven grant,” that Yueatan may sus- ain herself properly on this occasion, and that her sons may all death tothe ignominy of a reconquest by heMexteans.” These are the fervent prayers that are laily sent on high.—New Orleans Bulletin, July V5, | Moki Swantweurine sill be remembered was robbed of $3000 in sovereigns, at the President Hotel afew weeks since, was arrested yes- ‘erday by officer Stokely, on a writ issued under the Still- well Act, foremberzling several thousand pounds ster- jing from his employ Jitors in Ireland, He was committed to th > in default of bail. Fatse Prrrexces.—Mr. Edwin Skinner, whose resi- lence is at Oswego, in this state, was arrested yesterday and held to bail in the sum of $2,000, being charged by Lewis S. Bouton, boot and shoe dealer, of 251 Pearl street, with obtaining, in the month of May last, a bill of goods, valued at $570,91, under false pretences. The goods were Jelivered to Skinner, on his representing to Mr. Bouton that he would pay part cash, and that he had made ar- rangements with Mr. 8, Allen, of the firm of Marvin and Allen, of Oswego, to accept his drafts for the balance, pay- able at four months. Mr. B. being satisfied of the capacity of their firm to meet the payment, received $180 in cash, and forwarded the goods with this understanding. The | drafts not being delivered according to promise, enquiry was made, when it proved that Messrs. Marvin and Allen had never made any such agreement with Skinner, and he was therefore arrested on the charge yesterday, he having visited the city on business. He had not obtained bail when the reporter left the tombs last evening. Ronwine 1x tHe Puptuc Stext.—On Friday evening as Hugh Lynch, of No. 3 Centre street, was passing through Washington street near Battery Place, he was accosted by two men, one of whom knocked him down, and the other rifled his pockets of the contents, consisting of four pledge tickets representing clothing worth $13,75. ‘They were seen tocommit the desperate act by Mr, Ed- ward McDermot, of 60 Barclay street, who upon expostu- lating with the ruflians for their conduct, was significant- ly told by one of them, that “if he did not trudge along and mind his own business, they would serve him in the same manner.” He took their advice, and in company with Mr. Lynch secured the aid of watchman Wm. C. Thompson, who succeeded in arresting both the villains soonafterwards, they haying remained near the place where they committed the act, as is presumed to repeat it on some other person. On being brought to the watch house, it was discovered that their names were Richard B. Morrison, recently out ¢f state prison, and David H. Platt, two of the most villanous looking rogues that have ‘gracedthe police for years. ‘They were fully prepared with the implements of their business, as a loaded cane or “billy,” and lead knuckler were found in their pockets. The proof against them is of such a character as to ensure conviction and punishment in the state prison, which cannot be less than ten years each. One of the tickets taken from Lynch, was found in the pocket of Platt when searched. Ax Important Casr.—A case of an unusual character is now pending before Judge Barton of Philadelphia, on a writ of habeas corpus. It sprung from the following cir- cumstances ; In October, 1839. aman, named Alexander L. Clark, was convicted in this city of obtaining goods upon false pretences, the indictment being framed under a statute of that State similar to the act of our Assembly abolishing imprisonment for debt—the latter, indeed, be- ing but an imperfect copy of the former. In pursuance of erdict he was sentenced to an imprisonment of five years in the Penitentiary, at Sing Si ng, hut while on his way thither he escaped from the custody of the Sheriff,and was lost sight of from that time. A few days since, how- ever, a man calling himselt Alexander Denny, who has been trading with several houses in Philadelphia for the Jast two years, and has at the same time been carry ing on business asa merchant in one of the southwestern States, was arrested at the suit of a creditor for the*sum of $2000, and while in custody was recognised by an individual as the man Clark. Information was immediately sent 0. to Governor Seward, a requisition ebtained, andthe prisoner was about to be conveyed to this city as afugitive from justice, when this writ of habeas corpus was issued by Judge Barton. The prisoner denies his identy with Clark, and his counsel also insists upon his discharge, on the ground that the requisition can only take effect upon a person charged with an offence ; in which case he can be ent on for trial, and not upon rson convicted and sen- tenced, and demanded for the so ¢ purpo of punishment. The clause in the Constitution of the United States, which requires persons held to labor in one State and escaping to another, to be surrendered upon a requisition, it is con- tended applies only to the case of absconding slaves ; that the surrender of criminals is enly by virtue of a State law or usage, and that there exists in Pennsylvania no law or usage which empowers the executive to send persons into other States upon a requisition disclosing the tact that the individual is wanted for the mere purpose of inflicting shment upon him. The ingenuity of counsel, if not inherent ditticult has so involved this question that ill require long and patient examination, and the judge will deliver a written opinion, when it is ready to be de- ivered. More Counterrriters Annestxp.—In addition to the large number of counterfeiters arrested on Thursday and Friday, Samuel G. Barrett, a seaman, who lately arrived in this city trom Matagordas, was pulled yesterday for at- tempting to passa $3 counterfeit note of the Greenwich Bark, at the Box-oflice of the Chatham Theatre on Friday evening. He denies all knowledge of the character of the note, which is one of the best imitations of the genuine ones that we have seen. He was committed for trial. The note was letter A, and dated August 5, 1841. Sreampoat Tuier.—A ake named James McGill, was put in the Tombs yesterday for stealing a bundle be- longing to one of the passengers of the steamboat Raritan. Fine.—About six o'clock yesterday afternoon, a fire broke out among some frame shanties, principally occu- pied by colored people, in Mulberry street, near Bayard, and destroyed three or four of them. & Mvsicat.—Mre. Sutton is giving concerts at Buffalo. U. S. Marshal’s Office. Jury 23.—Silas Loudand Elihu Loud, Ist and 2d mates of the bark Caspian, have been arrested and held to bail, charged with assaulting and beating Jacob 8. Mayo, onc of the seamen, with a dangerous weapon, on her late voyage from New Orleans. A cross complaint, for mu- tiny, was entered by the mates against Mayo, and two others of the hands. Mayo was liberated on his own re- cognizance. The others were committed. Arnest of auLeGep Murpertrs.—Officers returned to town last evening with Samuel Stoddard and William Collins, two young men, canal drivers, charged with killing the old man Fish in this city during the early part of this month. Both the accused were overtaken some eo, miles east of Lockport. Bills of indictment have ali y been found against one or both of the parties.— Buffalo Com. Adv. Latest prom FLoripa.—We have intelligence of a late date from Florida. There is, however, no Indian news oi importance. “Nothing from Octiachee and the Creeks, wehearof no new depredations. It is understood however, that matters wear a favorable . Halleck and his party leave Cedar Keys for Arkansas in four or five days, together with some twenty-four warriors and forty women and children.” "The remains ofthe late Lieut’ James F. Izard, of the ist regiment of U. 8. Dragoons, have been disinterred from their resting place at Camp Izard, on the Withlacoocha, and they are removed by erder of Col. Worth to St. Au: gustine, for interment in the military burying ground near old Fort Marion. A Petaet.—Every body has heard of the curious little sea-bird called the Petrel, or Mother ey’s chicken. Very surprising to relate, one of these birds was killed in Blandford, (adjoining Petersberg) on Thursday last. It appears that a negro observing the bird on the road, threw astick atit and broke its wing. Coming into the hands ofa gentleman in town, he compared it with the plate of the Petrel in Wilson’s Ornitho! BY, and found it to be identical therewith. The Petrel is seen far out at sea, flit» ting rapidly near the surface of the water. They are commonly noticed on the eve of a storm—hence they are regarded somewhat superstitiously by the mariner. ‘The French term the Petrel *' Poiseau oy gene the storm-bird. It has also been fancifully ee that the name Petre! taken from St. Peter, because he walked on the surface of the water. We had seen the Mother Carey’s chickens at sea a number of years ago, but never expected to encoun- ter one in Petersburg. On Tuesday night last there was a violent storm or tornado in North Carolina. We have had here, also, strong cast winds and boisterous weather of late. It is therefore sup that this little Petrel has been blown inland by stress of weather, just as the first settlers at Jamestown were blown up into Hampton Roads. The Petrel is about the size of a swallow, ofdark ash color and web-footed.— Petersburg Virginian. Progress of the Medical Revolution, {From the Boston Daily Mail.] NEW MOVEMENT IN MEDICINE.—The New York College of Medicine and Pharmacy, whicn has been established for the Cy bern of quackery, both in the profession and out of it, is one of the most important move- ments which has been made in the medical world for ma- ny years. The College is composed of a body of the most eminent physicians and surgeons of the present day, and they design to popularize the whole science of medicine, and by preparing for each class of meladies the appropri ate remedy, accompanying it with full directions for use, to make every man in truth his own ph n. The idea of ‘ one disease and one remedy” is py sterous,— ‘The human system is subject to a thousand ills, differing widely one from another, and no single remedy can be perfectly adapted to every constitution and every com- plaint. Dr. Brandreth himself, the great apostle of the ‘one remedy” doctrine, has literally abandoned this prin. cipleand acknowledged that his pills cannot cure all dis. eases, by Preparing a liniment or external remedy for Rheumatic tions.

Wasmyaron, (Friday) 3, P. M. Private Business—.Navy Appropriation — Navigation and Commerce Report. The Senate is still engaged on the Private Calen- der. No public business has been transacted. A vast number of private claims had accumulated be- fore the Senate—Many just ones that ought to have been paid longago, and many without any founda- tion whatever, and there seems to be a determina. | tion to make a clear sweep of them. i The House is still on the Navy Appropriation Bill. This morning Mr. Barnard undertook to in- troduce his bill for a declaratory Tariff Act, but it was rejected. The Navy Bill was then taken up in Committee of the Whole, and debated until twelve o'clock, when the question was taken on the amendment of the Senate, increasing the appro- priation for the service trom $2,335,000 to $2,800,000, and the committee refused to concur—Ayes 66, Noess9. e The next amendmentof the Senate was to strike out Mr. MeLellan’s proviso, which declares that the officers in the Navy shall not be increased be yond the number in service on the first January, 1841, and that the excess above that number shall be reduced as fastas the deaths, resignations and dis- missals may occur,—and to insert instead, the num- ber which shall be’in the service at the close of the present session. The amendment was rejected by a dare majority. So the officers who are now be- fore the Senate for the promotion, may abandon all ‘opriating $120,000 for hope tor the present. he Senate amendment ay a floating d. and to pay for materials already pur- chased for the dry dock at Brooklyn, was agreed to. An amendment appropriating a similar sum for the repairs and improvement of the Pensacola Nav Yard was rejected. me inconsiderable amend- ments were rejected, and the bill was reported to the House. The question being on agreeing with the committee, Mr. Adams obtained the floor, and joke at some length, principally in reply to Mr. Wise. The debate is still going on, but the bill will} probably be returned to the Senate to-day.
