Proposal to Correspond—Politics and Society in Ber- lin—Fire in Hamburg—King of Prussiaand Em- peror of Russia—Literature and Trade—Commer- cial Affairs. James Gorvon Bennett, Esq :— Sir :— During a residence of several years in the United States of America, I have been a constant reader of your valuable Journal, which is allowed on all hands to contain a greater mass of information than is to be met with in any of the “respectable sixpen- nies” of Wall street. Knowing that your con- nexions are not confined to America, but extend to England and France, I conceived the idea on my return to Europe that a correspondence from this part of the world might not be quite unacceptable, as I should have an opportunity of communicating a variety of facts and observations, whichwould offer more novelty to your countrymen in general, than those concerning the more beaten track of conti- nental travel. You are well aware that Berlin is the capitolof a powerful and flourishing kingdom, and may be con- sidered in an intellectual point of view, as the focus in which the rays of German science and literature are concentrated. It contains a University,which,al- though one of the newest, isalready one of the most distinguished institutions of the kind on the con- tinent, and is frequented by students from all parts of Europe, and even by a few from the United States. Many of the Protessors haye acquired the highest reputation in their several departments. M. de Savigny, the great lawyer, has been recently appointed Minister of Justice; M. de Raumer’s his- torical works and travels in England, are not un- known on your side of the Adantic;and Dr. Schoen- lein has infused new life into the medical depart- ment. The city boasts of a population nearly equal to that of New York, and has lately evinced a simi- lar tendency to go out of town, slthonah it is stopt In its vagrant prospensities by a lofty brick wall that encompasses it on all sides, including many acres of ground not yet built upon. Most of the streets are wide, straight, and of interminable length; splendid palaces and immense barracks are the distingush- ing features of Berlin, the latter being necessary to accommodate the garrison,which is said to amount to 30,000 men. There is also a goodly number of churches,but they are generally less frequented than the theatres; 1 ueeion whether even the eloquence of your friend Maffit would be able to attract a full congregation. The public symy the great ts Se u have probably seen in the English newspapers. ith the exception of the burning GEMosoow: il is the most distructive conflagration that has taken place in Kurope since the fire of London in 1666, nearly 2000 houses having been consumed, and up- wards of 20,000 individuals deprived of their homes and their property. On the first arrival of these dis- astrous accounts, tiberal contributions of provisions, bedding and clothing, were sent down the Elbe to Hamburgh, to relieve the distress of the unfortunate sufferers, and since then large sums of money have been collected for the same purpose. The King set the example by a donation of 35,000 dollars, the members of the Royal family, the nobility, the bankers and merchants, in fact all classes of people showed equal liberality, and the collections have consequently attained a very considerable amount. This deplorable event has excited the greatest sym pathy throughout Germany, every city and town, whether digs ot small, hastened to send in its sub- scription. e Senate of Frankfort voted 100,000 florins, and the Hanoverian Chambers $100,000 dol- lars for the same object. As soon as the Emperor of Russia was informed of the conflagration he or- dered 50,000 silver roubles ($40,000) to be paid over to the Hamburgh authorities; 140,000 silver roubles are said to have been collected in the Imperial fami- ly, and 60,000 by the nobility of St. Petersburg, be- sides the sumssubscribed by the merchants, which will probably be very considerable. Will the Uni- ted States do anything to assist their sister Republic? or have their financiering experiments put it out of their power? The principal Hamburgh Iusurance Company is not likely to be able to pay in full, come say not more than 20 per cent. This is the mere to be regretted, asit was principally the middle class of people, retail shopkeepers, mechanics, &c., that were insured in this Company, many of them will lose the hard earningsof their whole lives, and be reduced to comparative poverty, whereas the more opulent mercantile houses were insured in London, in the oval Exchange, Alliance, Phenix and Sun Offices, w! igh pay all their losses in full. Altogether the distress is infinitely greater than it was after the fire of New York in 1835; the heaviest losses falling on those who are least able to bear them. The King is expected to go to St. Petersburgh towards the end of this month, on a visit to his bro- ther-in-law, the Emperor, who celebrates what is called in this country his silver-wedding, that is to say the twenty-fifth anniversary of his marriage with the present Empress (sister to the King of Prussia.) In the fall grand maneuvres will take place in the Rhinish provinces, when the King will review the troops quartered near the "Fretich fualisen In this tour he will be accompanied by the Queen, and the palace of Coblence has been ordered to be put into complete Hee and newly furnished for the recep- tion of the Royal family and their guests, who are xpected to be ae at the reviews. he mercantile part of this community are chiefly engaged in buying and selling the manufactures of Germany, which have in many instances supplanted aa eee and French goods, the latter being subject to oye duties from the German Commercial League (Zollverein.) The goods manufactured by steam power in your Eastern States are equal, in most respects to (om made here by hand—In fact I have seen some do- mestics, &c. from the looms of Lowell, the Merri- mack and other companies, which are superior to those manufactured in Germany, but could not be imported on account of the duty on all foreign mer- chandise, and the heavy expenses. Business in this country is altogether conducted on a more lim- ited scale than in the States, although the amount of capital is quite sufficient to supply the means of engaging in extensive commeicial enterprises. But the merchants of this city are very different to those of your great emporium ; no ind speculations to all cuatiess of the globe are thought of here, nor could they be in the nature of things. Berlin is an inland city, situated on a small river, and many lo- cal prejudices and petty obstacles prevent the launch- ing out into new undertakings or establishing ex- tensive manufactures. Almost the only exception to this is a large establishment for spinning and. weav- ing by power, which has latery been formed in Sile- sia upon shares. Railroad engines haye also been constructed in this country for some time on Eng- glish and American models. The Bankrupt laws are very strict, and so are the lice regulations. They inierfere in. every body's usiness, and a to delight in giving as much trouble as possible about every trifle,let it be ever so insignificant. i otwithstanding several railroads have been con- structed, there is not that unfettered liberty of loco- motion that people are used to in America; you ean- not travel 50 miles without a passport, nor stay 24 hours without having your name registered at the Police office. In my next I will give you some account of the manners, customs and peculiarities of the inhabi- tants of Berlin, as well asa few anecdotes of pass- ing events, of the reforms and changes introduced by the present King, and will endeavor to tu you from time with a succinct statement of every re} able occurrence that may come to my know- ledge. ety Remaining, Sir, Your most obedient servant, A. B. Msiaxcnony Acerpext.—-On the 4th inst., Mr. James Desmond, seaman, of brig Columbo, on the passage from Baltimore for Boston port, went aloft with all hands to take inthe fore topsail. It was blowing heavy at the time with a had sea, and the brig was under close-reefed top- sails. While Pepe the sail, young Desmond fell, and struck upon the deck. He ished six hours in great sulfering, of body, but unconscious in mind, and then ex- pired. Capt. Clifford speaks in very high’ terms of the ‘ood character and conduct of the deceased. He was obe- dient and active, always ready to execute every order, and was beloved by ull on board. Bozirreation.—This is a new American word. It comes from the substantive Boz (or Dickens), and signifies ingra- titude. Suppex Deata.—The Marlboro’ Gazette says :—Mr. ‘Thomas Harwood, a respectable citizen of Queen, in this county, was found dead in his yard on Monday morning of last week. He had retired the night previous in as good health as usual. It is supposed he jumped from his Chamber while asleep. Mr. H. was nearly 80 years old, and has always borne the character of a kind and gener- ows man.

Axnany, August 14. The Millerites at Aloany—Tt Big $700 Tent—The 23d April, 1343—The Last Day, (let Wall Street look out)—Tvemendous Excitement—Great Meet- ing of 4000 People to hear the Midnight Cry. On Thursday evening, 1th August, in the year of our Lord, 1842, just eight months, two days and four hours before the final end of all things, the streets, lanes, lots and avenues, were thronged with travellers, ull bound to the big tent at the head of Third street. Some were on foot and some in wa- gons and cabs; old men tottenng from age and in- firmity, young men with their intended fair ones hanging on their arms; women with children in their arms and out of their arms ; some very respectable, beautiful women, and some not respectable; crowds of canawlers ; a good many foe cae 3 a fair sprinkling of black-legs and pickpockets; every grade of color—the black, the brown, the fair, the ex- quisitely beautiful—all, all wending their way to hear the Rey. Mr. Fitch expound and demonstrate that the 23d April, 1543, and not the 4th of April, as has been set forth by Miller, is to be the very last day that the Doctors of Divinity, the Mormons, the Fourierites, the Squashites, the Wall st. editors, and the Wall street brokers, shall have an existence. From and after that day, they, together with the United States Bank Directors, Nick Biddle, and all the other workers of iniquity, shall be burned up and utterly consumed, The ground selected is a piece of flat table land, about a mile north of the Capitol on land adjoining the country mansion of the cele- brated Dector Cooke, late of this city. It is easy of access, and a better location could not have been selected. The glorious Beompect for miles around, reminds one forcibly of the “temple not made with hands.” The first ee that meets your view is the great tent or“ markee,” 140 feet in diameter, covering an area of nearly halt an acre; it is supported in the centre by a pole 100 feet high, and round the sides by stakes or uprights. It isopenall round the bot- tom to let the air circulate freely within, and can be closed all round so as to make it tight should the weather be unfavorable; it cost $700, and is said to be the best specimen in the tent making line in the U. States ; every part of the work about it isfreally beautiful. The interior is fitted up with rude bench- es or seats without backs, The ground is covered with straw to protect the feet from damp. _ It is said that some 3000 people can be comfortably seated, but that 3,500 canbe, and have been, accommoda- ted under its roof. A rostrum er pulpit for the ora- tor, is erected at one side, so that all of the immense audience can see and hear him. The ladies are ranged on the one side, and the men on the other. Besides the big tent there are three others for the use of the brethren and sisters who officiate in the temple, where prayer meetings, bible classes, and other night meetings are held. They are all neatly and tastefully arranged. " tn addition to these, there are fifteen booths, where cakes, rum, candies, gin cock tails, ice cream, mint juleps, and oysters, can be had in great abundance, together with other luxuries in great plenty. All the houses in the immediate vicinity are turned into shops for the sale of creature com- forts, and all appear to be driving a lucrative busi- ness. ‘The interior of the large tent is dimly lighted up with canal boat lamps suspended from posts scatter- ed over the building. Every seat was filled. Some young ladies could not get seats and had to set on the beauxknees. Mr. Fitch preached nearly two hours, in an atmosphere of ninety degrees, The powers of human endurance were put to the severest lest to sustain the heat and cfiluvia of so many breaths ; some flavored with tobacco, some with gin and some with decayed teeth—still the orator hel on. He commenced with the birth of our Saviour, the star in the east, the wise men, Jacob’s ladder. Moses in the bullrushes,Lot and his daughters, Davi and Bathsheba, Joseph and the wife of Potiphar, Daniel’s vision, the seventy weeks, the horrible iniquity that now abounds, how the world is lost for want of the pure gospel,how the D. D.’s and all other Reverencesare serving mammon, how our finances are all going to the devil, how the whigs want to head Captain Tyler, [a sure sign the world is drawing to a close;) from these strong and irrefrigable shadow- ing forths of the very age and body of the time in which we live, the reverend orator deduced the fact in connection with the full of the great mammon, the United States Bank and all its $52,000 borrowers, that on the 23d of April, 1843, at 12 P. M., the last moment of recorded time had elapsed, andthe new heavens and the new earth would be established. This man’s reading, extensive research, good de- livery, perfect mastery of his subject, commands respect and attention, The services opened and closed with singing and prayer. All was orderly and decent. No disturbance. No riot. Over 4000, some say five thousand dispersed, most of them to their respective places of abode, some of them to stroll over the neighboring fields, the aight being delight- ful and the “moon having hid her face.” I believe not one found their way to the watchhouse. Do not these facts speak volumes for the orderly conduct of our wellgoverned city and its peaceable inhabitants? Saratoga Springs. [Correspondence of the Herald.)

Benner, Esq. :— Dear Sir— ‘There is no paper received at this place, that is so eagerly sought, and read with so much avidity, as the New York Herald; and, for the simple reason, that it contains the latest intelligence from all parts of the country, tells the truth, and fears neither man, the devil, nor all Wall street combined. Presuming you would like to hear from the head quarters of the beau monde, this grand resort of the fashion, folly, piety, pride and flummery of the whole country, I devote a few minutes this morning for your especial benefit. _ os The village yet continues full of visitors, dog days being in full operation; a scorching sun and pelting shower succeeding each other in rapid succession. Last week it rained here more or less, every day but one. Union Hall has now about 300 boarders—as fine a lot of Presbyterianism, and all other isms, as can be found in the country. This hotel has got tobe for the pious, sedate, steady sort of people, the crack house. The nicely trimmed whiskers, beautiful mustachios,immensely rounded bustles,and starched up belles, however, go to the United States. En passant, if the latest fashions of the ladies dresses, continues to increase in rotundity and size for ano- ther year, as much as it has the past year, the de- mand for cotton wool and curled hair, will be so great that the price must inevitably nse without even a “tariff for protection, or a tariff tor revenue.”” The number ot arrivals in town per railroad, for the eight days previous to the 12th instant, was 1379 ; and about 200 persons have arrived by railroad in the last two weeks, besides those who came by sta- ges and private conveyances. ‘ 4 Among the recentarrivals are Rev. Silas Aiken, Pastor of the Park street Church, Boston ; Profes- sor Muzzy, (or anti-tobacco Muzzy, as_he is some- times called) formerly of Dartmouth College, but now of Cincinnati, Ohio; Professor Proudfit, and Hon. Stephen Allen, of your city; Mr. Van Buren, ex-sub-treasurer. We have also at the Union, lots of D. D.’s, Reverends, Gen’ls, Col’s, Esqrs., &c “too numerous too mention.” Rev. Drs. Spring and Cox, are still rusticating at the pprings, in order, I suppose, to gain serengilito grapple with the power of darkness in your great city of Gotham. Miss Sedg- wick, of Lenox, Mass., so extensively and popularly known as a writer of nove!s and tales forthe young, is at Congress Hall. But few females, or males either,have done as much as shefhas by her writings to benefit the masses, and to elevate the condition and increase the happiness of the many. Yankee iiiil andi the Rainer family have just closed a most snecessful engagement in this place. Last evening, (their last appearance) at the sugges- tion of friends, they reduced the admittance from $1 to 50 cents. and sucha crowd is not often seen ina country town. Inten minutes you could laugh out more than 50 cents worth at Hill's wit and drollery; and the Rainers’ singing was most ad- mirable. i Among the on dits of the town is a report that a man who has. a wife in Schenectady, having pro- cured a beautiful young lady of seventeen, belong- ing to this village to tend a shop for him, seduced herto run away with him. Her father pursued thern as far as Utien, where he found them in a very e and improper situation. He caused the man to be arrested and brought back into this coun- ty, where he was held to bail in the sum of $1200, to appear at the next Court to answer to the crime of seduction. If found guilty, let the severest penal- ties of the law rest on such avillain—and let public sentiment “Lash the scoundrel naked round the world,” 1842.

The beauty and the gallantry of the place will then be brought out—the brillianey and splendor of the occasion be une- qualled :— “ And jest and youthful jolity, And pomp, and feast and revelry” will close the fashionable campaign at this gay and fashionable watering place. Captain Tyler’s fourth veto was received here on Thursday last. It is a most able and admirable document, combining the qualities of the statesman and the honest man. It has generally bege con- ceeded that General Jackson superabounded in firm- ness; but certainly President Tyler has more. For look at the circumstances with which he was sur- rounded. Never was a man placed in such a try- ing situation. Never before has a President dis- played such Roman firmness, united with so much discretion, and a conscientious regard for principle. Although the disappointed and miserable politicians of the present day may condemn him, yet still, when this generation shall have passed away, the impartial historian willdo ample justice to the ad- ministration of John Tyler. The whigs here scold, and curse, and rave at the President ; and as the ‘‘down-easter” said of his thermometer, ‘if it had been longer, the weather would have been colder ;” so ;if they could find or invent stronger and more bitter Tingnage they would apply it to their own President. ‘The demoerats generally are much pleased with the veto, and will sustain it. They are every day more and more pleased with President Tyler ; and they are glad to see a whig pursue such a noble and democratic course. He must look to the de- mocracy for support ; and let him adhere to the principles of his vetoes, and he will most surely have It A good Clay whig on reading the veto, and re- membering the log cabin days of 1840, exclaimed— “ Sic transit gloria mundi !” 1am, sir, with great regard and esteem, Very taithfully yours, A YAn«eEeE.

Lake George—Ticonderoga— Lebanon, Dear Bennert— Tired of the insipidities of ton, and the treadmill of fashion, after a delightful drive of four hours, and a delicious dinner at Glen’s Falls, we reined up at the Lake House on the quiet shore of the Horican. A heavy shower had just passed over the mountains, and the “ live thunder leaping from peak to peak” in the amphitheatre of hills which surround the classic water, mingled with the hues of sunset, was indeed aglorious treat. To our great surprise, only three or four more persons were enjoying the beauties of Lake George ; one of them, a disciple of Isaac Wal- ton, was the bestspecimen of an angler this side of the Atlantic, His eee and tact are always sure to fill his hamper with the finest trout, when others strive in vain for a nibble. The old gentle- man had just returned from the mouth of a creek that opens to the Lake by the fortress so conspicuous in former days, with his rodin hand. When exa- mining his tackle, we discovered the secret of his succest:—he used the fly when others were idling their hours with a worm bait. The discovery an- noyed the old man very much, and there is not the least doubt, when this meets his eye, he will desert the lake fora more inland water. Passing down the lake in the William Caldwell steamer, through a magnificent panorama of enchant- ing scenery, with oh two passengers, after a ride of an hour from the Horican, we loitered at Ticon- deroga. Here the hotel was deserted, formerly the mansion of Mr. Pell; the view and grounds are beautiful. In the garden we found a grove, the en- trance to which informed us wes the “Elssler Grove.” Late in the afternoon we strolled to the ruins of the fort, picking up bullets, pieces of human bones, and other mementos of many a deathful strife. The fort of Ticonderoga was the keystone of the counrty in the revolution. How great the contrast from that period when Ethan Allen, in the “name of the Continental C ss, and the great Jehovah,” summoned the Governor to surrender, which he did, to his handful of troops, when Bur- goyne scaled the overhanging hill, and dislodged the Americans who fancied they were out of the range ofhis guns. Now Mount Defiance towers sublime Over batth ments decayed. In the fortress of an olden time The fox her den hath made. Our route from Ticonderoga lay through Lake Champlain,in one of the best steamers in the world the beautiful Burlington,commanded bythe Prince o! steamboat captains, viz. Captain Sherman,to White- hall, a very uninteresting place. Alea the road Burgoyne took with him his army to Schuylerville, at hich lace he surrendered. “By stage we came to Troy, from the! to Lebanon, at which place there are about 30 visitors. The Shakers have con- cluded notto have any public exhibitions of their re- ligion, which was the poe object of attrac- tion. We saw_ several files of the Herald amongst the Shakers. ‘The hotel, however, is well kept, and the scenery around picturesque and charming.

(Correspondence of the Herald | Wasinnerox, Monday, 3 P.M Dull Day in Congress=Mr. Adams’ Report Coming—Nothing agreed upon—Mr. & well, Thishas been one of the dullest Congreslone days of the season, much to the disappointment of every body. The reports from the veto commutiee were expected, and the galleries of the House were filled at an early hour. But the business in the House as well as the Senate, has been uausually uninteresting. In the Senate, several memorials when Mr. Rives moved to g¢ sion, for the pu as was anders tion in reference to the treaties r vailed, and the doors were closed for ter o' were presented, to executive sew me ae an hour, when the legislative session was re sumed, andjthe bill for ascertaining and disposing of the lead mineral lands of was considered. The general orders wer taken up, and the Senate is now engaged upon the calendar. The resolution fixing on Monday next a» the dey of adjowrnment, which was nate on Monday last, and postponed until to-da has not been taken up. ‘The legislative | os of the session can be finished in a couple of days putting the tariffquestion out of view, but the trea ties remain to be acted on, and the resolution of ad journment will not be concurred in, watil it shal be ascertained how fully they are to be discussed The treaties have been reported trom the Commit tee on Foreign Relatiens, and a single Executive Session will determine the matter. The House has been engaged most of the mor ning on the Remedial Justice Bill, providing for taking cases from the State to the Dnited trates Courts. This was laid aside at 2 o'clock, and the bill forthe reorganization of the Navy Department was taken up. The morning business was of no public import y United States sent ance. Mr. Adams did not report this morning, but it is possible that he may be ready in the course of the day. The report is long and very elaborate, and 1 intended for general circulation, asa reply to the veto message. Messrs. Ingersoll and Roosevelt will present a minority report, and another may be expected trom Mr. Gilmer Mr. Adams denounces the message of the President for refusing to sign the bill, as “feeble, inconsistent, and unsatisfactory .””~ The report is written with Mr. Adams's accustomed ability, and more than his usual bitterness. The course of the majority is not yet determined He and the result is just as doubtful us ever — here is to be another caucus to-night, but the ex- pectation seems to be that nothing will be agreed upon. There are obstacles to any salutary action which threaten to be insuperable. The bill which the President vetoed was found to conciliate certain interests not favorable to a protective tariff, and it may be doubted whether any bill can be carried through the present Congress which shall not em- brace distribution. We shell know the resultin a day ortwo. At presentall is incertitude and an) ty. Me is not to be questioned that in the present con- dition of the public finances, revenue should be the primary object in all legislative action. Protection must be a subordinate consideration. In the bill vetoed by the President, protection was the muin feature and object. The honegt men in Congress who look at this question calmly and without pre- judice, will not consent to go above the reve: pointin a tariff bill, so an adjournment without any thing being done is highly probable. Well, this willbe better than the adoptions of restrictive mei sures. We can get more revenue under the exis ing laws than would be roduase by the bill just ve- toed, even with the land ‘fund restored to the Trea- ury. Several of the papers in your city have, through mistake, probably, attached undue importance to Mr. S. M. Stillwell’s trip to Europe. The Tribune announced that he was the bearer of despatches from the Treasury Department, and some other paper stated that he had been commissioned to ne- gociate a loan in our behalf. ‘These stories are all withoutfoundation. Mr. Stillwell is charged with no business whatever by the Government. His pri- vate affairs required his presence in England, and he came to Washington and obtained leave of absence for a few weeks. Mr. Forward and some other of the high functionaries here gave him letters of intro- duction to gentlemen abroad—among them was one to Mr. Robinson, the person sent by the Treasury Department to borrow some money. These letters, such as every gentleman takes to Europe, have been magnified into “despatches,” and much nonsense has been uttered proand con, both written and oral, ‘This short statement tells the whole story.
