State of the Country—What’s to be done? We give in our columns to-day some startling dis- closures of the recent shocking tragedy in Pennsy vania, and of the great bank robbery in Georgia.— We should have added to these the curions letters of Colonel Munroe Edwards on finance and roguery, but are compelled to leave them out till to-morrow, in consequence of the want of room in our paper. The particulars of the horrible murder and the extensive bank robbery are signs of the times, and exhibit at once the recklessness of the fashionable gambler in this country, and the condition of the poor, half-starved classes of Europe, especially of England. We refer our readers to the facts themselves, as they stand in our paper. It is to be hoped that the affsir in Columbus will lead toa tull exposure of all the raseality at the south, and the detection and conviction of all such men as Shelton, and Graves, who have so disgraced the communi- ties in which they lived. The half starved murde- rer, Mason, is but one of a thousand who are this moment ready in England to do as he did, if need be, fora crust of bread or a bone topick. He had just arrived from there, leaving hundreds and hun- dreds behind him as hungry and as desoerate as he has proved himself tobe. Read the particulars, and ponder thereon. Honoxen.—This delightful spot is beginning to adorn itself in all the charms of spring, like a bride for her nuptials. They are levelling, grading and trimming up the walks and promenades—clearing away the rubbish and underbrush—mending the gates, and nailing up the fences—resetting posts, preparing the scups and swings, refitting the ride- a-bouts, jimeracks, and all the other outdoor para- phernalia of rural sports and amusements—while within doors such an overturning, outpouring, up- setting, clearing up, sweeping out, scrubbing down, washing over, scouring, painting, varnishing, white- washing, and polishing, was never before seen. Several new public houses are to be opened, and all the old ones refitted and returnished. And we may as well say here that one of the finest of them all, the Washington Gardens, is to be kept by Mr. John Ireland, the well known proprietor of the First Ward House in New-street—we advise visiters tofgive him a call. Should tlfe weather prove favorable, and no un- fortunate accident occur to-day in the great solar machinery, our citizens who are fond of a Sunday jaunt, cannot find a more pleasant amuzement at less time and expense than to make a trip over to Hoboken to-day: They will probably for the last time this season, at any rate, see how this little para- dise looks in dishabille, just before she begins to put on her attire, and paint up for company. Deatu or Commopore Porter.—It will be recol- lected that we have already published the death of this distinguished naval officer. He acquired a very enviable fame during the last war with Great Britain, and particularly in that desperately fought battle between the Essex, and the Phabe and Cherub, which lasted nearly two hours and a half. The following particulars of his last iliness, death, and burial, we take from the Philadelphia Ga- zette :— The following extract of a letter from a relati modore Porter in Consta: of Com- inople, contains some interest- ing particulars of his last illness anu death. The Commo dore had been for some years past in very feeble health, and latterly had been exceedingly prostrated. On the Q7th February last he was scized with an acute attack of plenrisy and ‘pericarditis, which after a few days of in. tense suffering, terminated fatally on the 34 of Mareh. ‘The letter proceeds to say — Fripay, March 34, 1 P. M. The poor Commodore is no more. ie died withont pain and scarce a struggle, st exactly !2 meridian. To the last wehad no reason t+ believe he was sensible All that could be'done by the most assiduous ani untiring attention to re. lieve him in his last moments, was dove. Nature was ex- haustet, and to judge from his tranquillity we may say that for some hours previous to his decease he was in. sensibleto pain. He now leoks as tranquil as if asleep, and hiscountevance shows no torture he had been endu- ring for the last five days. He seemed to have a presenti- ment for some time past of his approaching tate, for he often repeated to us that he felt he would die soon. By his last will Commodore Perterr directed that his body should be interred at the foot of the flag staff. Thrs will be done. His bedy will by put in a leaden coffin with an outer one o! mahogany. Commodore Morgan will be written to, to request him te send avessel of war to convey the re- mains to the United States, as it would be very improper to leave them here, since the property may pasé into other hands. The morning of the day he was taken ill, he took along ride in the carriage he had lately purchased. I went with him. He appeared to suffer much pain, and I urged him in vain to return home. The roads were deep with mud, and as the carriage is rather heavy for the horses, they were obliged to stop once or twice for breath, and once fell; still he ordered the coachman to drive on. He leaned back his head and groaned, as if suffering great pain, but uttered no complaint. On our return he was ar exhausted, and he was almost carried to his ped. Sunpay, March 5th. A deep "grave has ‘been dug a few yards to the nortl ward of the flag-staff; it is lined and floored with bricks. A flooring of oaken boards is 0 laid dewn to prevent the effects of the dampness. There will be three ‘coffin ‘aninner one of lead made air tight and filled wit ‘next a walnut casing covered with black cloth with etters D. P. in brass nails on the lid, it being found possible to have a silver plate engraved here. In the grave will be placed an outer coffin in strong deal stained black, in which the coffin will be deposited. Invitations have been issued to all the diplomatic corps, and the Ame- ricans here for the funeral ceremonies, but asthe weather is bad, I fear the attendance will be small. Moxpay, March 6th, 3 P. M. The funeral isover. It was attended by the attachés of several legations and allthe Americans resident in Pe- ra. The ministers who were not present themselves or who had not sent representatives, sent letters of condo- lence. After the funeral, the Americans present assem- bled and passed the following resolution That they would wear crapefor the space of one month—2nd. That letters of condolence should be sent to Mrs. Porter— 3d. That copies of resolutions should be sent to the De- partment of State, to Mrs Porter, and to the family here. Signed by all the Americans in Pera. Larest rrom Jamaica AnD Hayti.— We have re- ceived the Kingston Journal to the 25th ult. {t is principally filled with matter in relation to Hayti. All that we can find about Jamaica, is that a smart shock of an earthquake was felt at Black River on the 20th. That black philosopher, Boyer, had taken up his residence at Kingston. Among the articles he stole at Port au Prince, just before his flight, was the crown of Christophe, which is said to be studded with jewels, worth $2,000,000. Generals Inginae and Victor had reached Kingston from Hayti. Among the results of the revolution are the fol- lowing, which may be considered important ina civilization point of view :— The President in future isto be elected for three years only, but may be re-elected it his policy and government are approved of. The army is to be abolished, and a strong police substituted. The old Generals ‘will be pensioned off, and every effort made to employ the soldiery in agriculture. re All gions are to be tolerated, and capitalists encour- d. Seminaries of learning will be established, nd the publie allo expression of their own opinions through the medium of t ress. It is ex- ted that Ferry, a gentleman of great talents, a ilan, and also a very popular man, will be elect- edto the dential chair. The greatest difficulty will be in disposing of the old Generals, and leading the soldiery to habits of agricultural industry. The mass of the population is represented to be ina state of the grossest ignorance, and it willbe the work of time to difluse knowledge, education, and religion, among the people of this benighted country. News rrom Mexico.—Advices from Tampico to the 24th ult., have been received. One thousand troops arrived at Tampico on thatday, and an em- bargo was laid on the vessels in port, for the purpose of conveying the soldiers to Yucatan, (o assist in the operations against Campeachy. This embargo, however, after standing for four days, was with- drawn, and the troops were ordered back to Mate- moras Musicat.—Signor Nagel is in Philadelphia, pre- paring to give a farewell concert in that city. He will be here tweek, and after a concert here, will, on the 16tn of May, return to Europe. He is a wonderful violinist—a perfect Paginini Max Bohrer is at Cincinnati Iurnovine.—The health of Sir Charles Bagot Tue Hargssurc Tracepy—Exreaorpinary Conression.—We take the following particulars of the recent Harrisburg tragedy trom the Philadelphia Times of yesterday. 1t was one of the most brutal and horrible murders on record :— Asxotnen Muapeaer Cavont.—Itis our duty to re- cord the arrest of the individual who on the 14th inst., the murder of Mr. and Mrs, Parthemere, an old couple who resided about three miles trom Harrisburg, Pa. As their son has been arrestedon suspicion of hav- ing committed the deed, the discovery of the real culprit becomes doubly fortunate. It will be recollected, that on the day alter the murder, asuspicious character was ar- rested. He was taken before Justice Weiss, and after an examination was discharged for lack of evidence. On the clothes ofthis person, spots were found, which ap- peared to have been blood, washed out. Still the proofs were too weak, and so, after giving in his name as John Mason, he was released, Sul juently, he obtained from this justice a certificate of his discharge, upon the ground that he might be again arrested on suspicion for t! offence. This person left Harrisburg on Monda: rived at Reading, Pa. late inthe afternoon. He there pe up atthe White Horse Tavern. About 6 e’clock, P.M., one of the workmen employed at the railroad depot, nam- ed Robert McWhirter, who boarded ut the White Horse, going home tosupper, found Mason sitting in the barroom behind the stove, and was struck with his excited and un. easy manner and appearance. He gotinto conversation with him. All ofa sudden, in the course of conversation, Mason asked MoW. ifhe had heardof the recent murder ofthose old people at Harrisburg.” He replied that he had heard it from a young man who had come from the scene. Did you hear of a wood.chopper being arrested for the offence?” inquired M. The reply was in the firmative. mthe man,” said Mason ; ani then countenance in its changes betrayed the workings of his feelings of apprehension. After a little more conversation Mason told McW. that he was in a great deal of trouble, begged him to sleep in the same room with him, and said that after they had re- tired he would “ break his mind” to him! When they ot up in the room, and they went there without a light, Mason stated that he had a paper which hi ed McW: toread. It was the certificate of his prev’ discharge. McW. turned pa down stairs, but in descending heard afoot-step behindhim. He turned and beheld close at his heels, Mason, as pale and trembling all over.— “ Why do you not remain till I get a light?” “ Oh” said he “Tam so frightened I cannot stay in the room alone.” At the earnest solicitation of Mason, McW. slept with him, the former averring that he was labormg under such dreadful feelings that he dare not sleep alone. In bed, he told McW.at first, that he had committed a great crime, that it was his first offence, that he was consequently in great trouble, apprehensive of consequences, and anxious to get outof the country assoon as possible. He after- wards implored McW. to be his friend—swore he would never commit another crime—and told him that if he would pledge himself not to betray him, and would get him out of Reading in safety next morning, he would con. fess all. McWhirter gave the required pledge, aud Mason then made the following Conression oF THE Munper.—He was after work. He arrived at Philadelphia fram Ireland in July last, and had been wandering about the countryfever since. When in Harrisburg he heard that this old couple had laid up, from their sales of marketing, quite a large sum of money to support them, and that they had it in the house in spe- cie. He was in a state of utter destitution, and having nothing to ¢o, and no prospect of work, he conceived the plan of'h murdering the couple alluded to, in order to ob- tain their wealth. He began by lurking abvut the premi- set to ascertain when the old people were alone. On the morning of Friday he watched until he saw theson leave for market, when he sneaked up cautiously towards the house. As he looked in the door, he saw the aged couple sitting at a table, upon which were spread a number of small pieces of money The old lady was sitti end sewing, with her spectacles on her gentleman was sitting at the other end, apparently en- gaged in examining and counting the coin. Fired by the exhibition of this money, which brought into vivid dis- tinctness the picture of his own beggary, he retreated to an adjacent wood pile, and selecting from it an oak stick about a yard long, and knotty at the end, returned atealth- ily to the house. He first struck the old lady a tremen. dous blow upon the head from behind,completelymashing in ker skull, and exposing the brain. The sudden blow paralyzed with fear and astonishment her husband, be- fore recovering from which he received from Mason, a blow also that gave him an awful gash upon the foreheai, from out of which gushed a torrent ofblood. This would seem to have finished the dreadful deed, but the old man was athletic, and though blinded by his own gore, and agonized with the pain, he attempted to grapple with his assailant. Another aud {another blow followed, some of which struck the table and broke the corner ofit off. The old lady here made an outcry, it was her death-shriek, and the murderer alarmed, aim other blow at her, which missed her head, but dashed the speetacles from her face, andbroke thom when with » gurgling gcoan, she dropped ani expired. The old man now grasped thejvillain, in a mo- ment of Teiurning consciousness, by the leg. ‘Another blow with the bludgeon, which by this time was covered with blood and brains, and the gray heirs of the murdered couple, completed the fiendish work, and all was quiet. Mason now hastily snatched up the money from the table, and proceeded to rifle the drawers. He saw one drawer open with akey in it—probably the one from which the coin upon the table had been taken. From this drawer he took some relief notes, an? some silver. Just as he was about to close this drawer, he discovered a little box in it. He broke it open, and found it tull of gold. He seized one gold piece, but just at that moment the old man, turn. mg over in his blood, began to groan. The murderer be- came alarmed. At the same instant, he thought he heard approaching footsteps—possibly the’ son returning home. A panic scized him—there lay the gold before him—he wanted it—he could readily clutch it—but his fingers seemed paralyzed—his brain bewildered—and giving way to an instinctive sense of safety, he rushed out of the back door of the house, leaving his bloody stick behind him, and made will all porsible speed for the woods. He next went to the river, and there washed thestains of blood from his clothes. That night he sleptina barn. On ex- amining the money he had taken, he found that the whole sum did not exceed twenty dollars. The next day he was arrested and discharged, as above stated—proceedi 7 to Reading—where our narrative finds him. Tue Carture.—McWhirter was astounded at this hor. rible narration, and regretted that he had promised not to betray him, and to aid in his escape. When that pro. mise was given, he had no idaa that the crime referred to was the awful one of murder, and his first impulse was to have Mason arrested. But the word of an Irishman he thought should be held sa- cred, and much against his better feelings, he reluctantly made arrangements te “get him out of Reading”—the extent of his promise. On Tuesday morning, he accom- panied Mason tothe Philadelphia cars and him off. He then went to his work. In about hal hour, he commenced and told his fellow workmen the whole affair. He told it also to the foreman of the Depot, the agent of the Railroad Company, and one of the contractors. ‘These three gentlemen informed the police. On the oath of McW.a warrant was issued, and Mr. Stilwell was depu- ted by the Justice to pursne the murderer On Wednesday evening, S. and McW. arrived in Phila. delphia in pursuit. They went before Recorder Vaux. The Recorder issued a warrant for the arrest of Mason— sent for Col. J.K. Murphy—and was the whole of that night and the hext day, Thursday, engaged in buatin upthe offender. On Thursday afternoon, Murphy trac Mason to the p cket ship Monongahela, near Walnut street wharf, which vessel leaves for Liverpool next Mon- Mason arrived here on Tuesday, and the same evening made application to the master of the Mononga- hela fora Hi not enough money his p in did not like his appear away. The second mate n called again on board the sip on Wednesday, and again on Thursday. Qn that af- ternoon Mason returned to the ship. and manifested the greatest anxiety to get to Europe. He offered the chief mate a five dollar gold piece and two dollars in silver to stow him away in the hold and keep him concealed, until Monday when the would sail. According to agreement, the mate promised to conceal him, took his money and then went to seek fer officer Murphy. He went to the Mayor’s, and told his story. This was about dusk. Fearful that Mason might escape, and not know- ing where to find Murphy, His Honor despatched Captain Young, of the Night Police, and one or two ather officers totheship. Mason was brought to the City Lock-up. Yesterday morning he was brought before the Recorder, who heard the evidence of Stillwell and McWhirter, had Mason put in irons, and placed in the charge of Mr. Stili- well, to be conveyed to Harrisburg for trial. Mason appears to be about 36 or 39 years of age. He is of small stature, with an ordivary, rather feeble, expres. sion of conntenance, a wild, maniac-looking eye, and is evidently a man accustomed only to the lowest associa- tions. His clothing was very coarse and poor, and his whole appearance common and dirty. The stains upon his clothes were pronounced by McWhirter, who has been a bleeder in England for 25 years, to have been occasioned by blood. About $20 have been traced to his possession. We may as well remark here, that he now denies having made any confession. His whole demeanor, his uneasiness, &c., all betrayed before the Recorder} his guilt. He calls himself now William Mason. From Port av Piatr.—We are indebted to a gentleman in this city for the following letter rela- tive to the tobacco prospects :— Port av Piatt, March 14, 1843. Since my last, or indeed since the last of January, we have not had a single sprinkle of rain, and as this drought happens in the i dbaotie season of the tobacco, very little has been transplanted ; and as Jong as it continues dry it cannot be done. We shall have, therefore, very little tobacco this year, and it will be late, say Joly or August, before it comes in. APPOINTMENTS FOR iG Sinc.—We learn that the following are the appointments just made for the Sing Sing prison :— Principal Keeper, Elam Lyndes; Agent, Michael Hoff man ; Principal Matron of Female Prison, Mrs. Isabella ard. Great Fire in Newnern, N. C.—On the 18th inst. a tremendoas fire was raging in Newbern. Over one hundred buildings had been destroyed, and the flames still spreading. It broke out in the saw mills of John Blackwell. Excunsions.—What is pleasanter than a’ spring excursion out to Nowland’s in these fine days? His place is beginning to put on its vernal dress. Spring in Canapa.—A bright sunshine, warm breezes, and a cloudless sky, made their appearance at Quebec on the 18th inst. Reiicion.—The Rev. Mr. Kirk’s Society in Bos- ton have, itis stated, decided to build a church on the vacant lot of land at the bottom of Somerset Court.

Dear Bennett: ‘ Here we are all excitement—business suspended— volunteers called out—because there are net officers enough, if any, to keep the peace and arrest bank robbers, &c. You must know that last night Fow- ler, the Phrenologist from New York, gave a lecture on his favorite science, which he illustrated through @ magnetic subject (a yellow boy) to the satisfaction of some and the confirmed disbelief of others. He also told us some rather tough stories, or as the say- ing is here,“the streiched his blanket rather too large.” Fowleris a very bad lecturer as regards de- livery, and Ithink his lectures would be better at- tended if he were a better lecturer. p While we were all listening to this favorite or fashionable science, a game of rather a high charac- ter was going on in this place. On the return of Mr. Wm. Morton from the lecture, he heard a noise as he proceeded along the street ; ine listened and listened again, until he was convinced it was in the Bank of the Western Insurance and Trust Com- pany. Having a lady with him, he disposed of her as soon as possible, and procured help, got into the Bank, followed the noise until they come to the vault—on_ opening which, they there found Mr. Robt. B. Murdoch, Sec’y. and Mr. Allen Bass, Tel- ler. The statement of these gentlemen runs thus:—As they were balancing or settling up their cash a count last night, (by the bye rather late hours to be balancing a Bank's cash, 7 0’clock, P. M.) they per- ceived the bank door open; Mr.Bass took the candle andjlocked the door,immediately on returning to the counter the candle was knocked ont of his hand, and he and Mr. Murdoch were both knocked down; thetcoat collar of one of the gentlemen was cut through—in mistake, no doubt, for his throat. From the threats of the assassins these gentlemen were induced to hold their tongues until they were secur- edin the vault. Mr. Murdoch, after being locked up and while in the vault, I suppose feeling so thank- ful tor his preservation, could not help exclaiming to his comrade in trouble, “What gentlemen they were.” I eappone because they saved his life, but, poor fellow, this morning he looks more like one dead than living. a This morning immediately the robbery became known, volunteers were called out, (there being no. efficient civil officers, if any, besides our Mayor, Moses, of the firm of Hall & Moses,! who, by the by, was much excited) and scattered through all the town, searching houses, holes, cracks and corners. While this was going on, Mr. Mitchell magnetis- ed a boy, who in that state, said the money was all in town, that it would be found to-day, and that more than one person was concerned in the robbe- Be He also said that one man would be taken to- jay, and the others in a week at farthest. After searching for some time, the officers entered the house of a Mr. T. C. McKeen, who, on seeing them, in a very friendly, offhand manner, said, “well, T sup you want to search my house— here are the () and I have no objection, eee you don’t disturb my clothes and upset them too much.” They searched, McKeen going through the operation with them, and affording all the assis- tance he could, until they commenced searching a large box containing aplant. The earth wasdug up and there wasfound money to a considerable ex- tent. On looking round for McKeen he was “non est inventus”—but was immediately pursued, over- taken and made prisoner. He was taken toa grog shop, and shoe-makers’, all in one, where he was artially examined, the volunteers keeping guard. le was then brought out, headed by the Mayor, and ashe proceeded to the market house,he exclaim- ed—“‘ Now, gentlemen, I am the prisoner.” On ar- riving at the market house, he sent for Judge Col- quitt and Judge Willburne, for his counsel. They came. They are talented men, and the opinion now prey ailing is, that McKeen will turn State’s evidence, in order to save himself. Rae: _ T.C. McKeen was formerly a lawyer in this place in partnership, as | understand, with a gentleman o| some repute in this place. McK. at that time stood very high in the estimation of the community gen- erally. He isa fine looking man, about 5 feet 8 inches high, well proportioned, a fine round robust countenance, with ruddycheeks, fine black hair,and wears gold specs; his present and second wife he ran away with; she is the daughter of a respectable and entity planter in Alabama—she is a very fine ee I understand—amiable, accomplished, &c. McK. was also a member of the Methodist persuasion, and a very ieecetae man. As I expect to leave here soon, I am afraid I shall not be able to keep you well informed of the remain- der of the proceedings—if I can I will. Iam anxious our paper should contain the first report of this af fair. The Herald is here read the first of all, even before letters. No body seems satisfied until they have read the Herald.

A very cold backward spring. Excuse haste, as [ write to save mail. _ Yours, respectfully, H. T. P. S._ It issupposed by some that Jacob Shipman passed through this place in the mail line of stages the day before his defalcation became known here; how true 1 cannot tell; it was, I think, on the morn- ing of the 12th inst [Correspondence of the Herald.) Tek Cotumsns, April 16, 1843. As this is a day of rest, and nothing to do, and sup- posing that you take alittle interest in the ways and doings of the good citizens of this place, I write this scroll to give youa faint idea of whathas been going on for the last thirty-six hours. We have ha‘ the greatest excitement that I have ever known here, and you know that we are subject to excitements, as thatisall that keeps us alive in the summer. The Western Insurance and Trust Company (Shylock), on Friday night between eight and nine o’clock, was robbed of about $60,000. Murdoch and Allen Bass went into the Bank for the purpose of counting the money. They opened the vault. and whilst in the vault Bass thought he heard some per- soa at the door; he went to the door, saw no ene, locked it, and went back again into the vault; he held the candle in his hand, standing with his back towards the door, in an instant himself and Mur- doch were grabbed by some persons, and the light put out. Bass commenced making a noise, they told them that if they made any noise; they would at once kill them, whilst each had his man by the throat. e one or two more were picking up the funds indise’ fai inthe vault. After they had gotall a wanted, they locked Bass and Murdoch in the vault, and*told them if they made any noise before they (the robbers) got out of the house, that they would go back and put their lights out. They remained in the vault about three hours before they could make. themselves be heard. The next morn- ing the excitement commenced. No one knew anything about it; every man had his own conjec- tures; no one knew where to go nor what todo. The company at once offered a reward ot $5,000. Nearly every person suspected the gamblers, of whom we now have a goodly number. After a while there was a negro who said he saw Thos C. McKeen about that time in the evening, coming from towards the bank with something under his arm, and went into his room adjoining the Oglethorp, in the wing on Randolph street. search was immediately made there, and in a few minutes they found $4, in the bottom of a flower pot, the flower was growing finely. He was immediately taken inte custody by A. K. Ayer and N. M.C. Robinson; they took him into a room, qxestioned him fora long time before they could get any thing out ofkim. After a while he intimated that if the Shylock would give their obligations not to prosecute him, give him $1000, and carry him one hundred miles from here, he would tell them where the money was. The proposi- tion was made to them, they at once complied with it, loving money better than their souls—and Tom started on his way rejoicing, accompanied by Ayer and Robinson.. Tom was to tell them where the money was alter they had left here. As soon as the citizens had found out what was done, every voice was raised against!that course, and it was proposed atonce to go after them. Ina few hours after Ayer came back, as he said, to ascertain the feelings of the community, leaving Tom and Robinson in the wood. Ayer soon found out that it would not be safe for him unless he brought McKeen back. Before Tom was brought back, he told where the money was, gave anorderto Ayer on J. I. Lewis (Lang) to “give up the bag of poe Lang new nothing about it. Tom was brought back and putin jail We were all well satisfied in our minds, that Ayer and Robinson knew more about it than the rest of us; the excitement was turning inst them. Some time in the night they went to Lang’s house, told him that he had the money and muet give it, as they were now implicated. After a while, he told them where to find it. To-day (Sanday) thoy have been examining witnesses. . J. L. Lewis, now District Attorney,dis in custody ; to-morrow may bring forth something more. P. 8. I have just learned, that Tom has told of two more persons that were with them, who are on their way to Mobile. They are strangers in this place. If the whole truth can be brought out, it isithought some more in high life will be found in the scrape. Navas Movewents.—Commodore Charles Morris now on the Brazil station, is to relieve Commodore Morgan, ang take cemmand of the Mediterrerean Squadron ; and Commodore William Compton Bol- ton will shortly sail to assume the command of the Brazil fleet. Captain J. Abbott has been appointed to the com- mand of the U. S. sloop of war Decatur, now at Nor- folk. It is supposed that she will go to the Coast of Africa. Subjoined is a list of the officers of the Truxton, now at Norfolk, ready for sea:— George P. Upshur, Lieutenant Commanding. Lieuten- ants—O. H. Perry, E. J. DeHaven, Jas. H. Strong; Master Edward Donaldson; assed Assistant Surgeon Charles D. Maxwell; Parser A. W. Upshur ; Midshi 8. Nichol- son, Henry Willis, Robert Selden, Charles C. Simms, B. F. Wells ; Captain’s Clerk L. U: Mayo; Gunner John Caulk; Boatswain Wm. Smith; Carpenter Samuel J.Seily ; Purser's Steward Samuel C. Upham; Captain's Stewar John Carpenter. The Boxer, Lieut. Com. Bullus, bound to Hava- na, was spoken on the 9th inst., off Double Headed Shot Keys, by the Annewon, arrived at Norfolk. The officers and crew were all well. There were in the harbor of Pensacola, on the 8th iast., the frigate Independence, the sloop-of-wa¢ Fal- mouth, and brig Dolphin. On the 19th inst. there were lying at Norfolk, the United States ship of the line Pennsylvania, Capt. Zantzinger, bearing the pennant of Oom. E. P. Kennedy; frigate Brandywine, Capt.

It is to be seen that Lieut. J. I. Boyle arrived yes- terday in the Baltimore, from Bremen, and is alive and in the enjoyment of excellent health. This proves that he has not been shot by Capt. Voorhees, according to rumor. There has never been any occasion for such a shot between those two offi- cers. Latest or rar Fresuets—Loss oF Lives.—It ap- Pears by the latest accounts that the waters were subsiding, and that the sufferers were beginning to repair damages done. We regret tostate, however, that several lives have been lost. In Lowell, where the mills were compelled to run “short time,” all was nearly right again. The Connecticut, and indeed all the rivers have fallen back to their proper length and breadth. It is estimated that the aggregate loss sustained will reach $1,000,000 in amount. The damage done tothe Concord, N. H. Railroad alone was up- wards of $40,000. [From the Buffalo Gazette, April 19.) We learn from Tonawanda, that the flood in the Creek has been attended with disastrous conse- quences. A serious breach was made in the Canal, below the Tonawanda dam and between it and the Guard The Creek made a clean 81 mined all the earth between the end of the Canal Bridge over Ellicott Creek and the Lock is washed Me The south end of the Bridge of the Buffalo and Ni- agara FallsRail Road is carried away. The Ca: nal_ Bridge is also gone—demolishing a building which stood in its course. The Creek no longer runs over the dam, but has deserted its old channel and formed a new one through the neck of land be- tween the Canal and Niagara River, known as Foose Island—about an acre of which has been washed away. The dyking on the Creek, above the bridges, has all been carried away. This is the most disastrous flood that has occurred on the Ton- awanda for years. Mr, Kibler’s building, however, had been carried off. The front part of it was used for the Post office and a store by Mr. K. and the rear fora dwelling.

[Correspondence of the Herald.] Seneca Fats, March ia , Quarter-past 11, P. M. During the confusion which pervades this com- munity, I have just this moment found leisure to in- torm you of one of the most disastrous freshets which has ever occurred in thissection of the State. On the evening of the 17th it commenced raining, and continued unabated until last evening, which, together with the immense poy of snow on the banks of the river and the fields adjacent, contribut- ed to swell the stream at (its pape to anuncommon heighth, and spread alarm and fearful apprehensions in its train. The new bridge, recentiy erected in the upper part of this village, was carried away, to- gether with the sash and blind factory of E. Par- tridge. ‘The tannery of A. P. Tillman is also very much injured, together with a large quantity of leather which was on hand. The extensive flour- ing mills of A. S. and D. W. Dey are very much da- maged, and it is fearful they will be lost. The grist mill of S. S. Gould is undermined by the force of the water, and is expected to tall Bs minute. We hear that it has also done immense damage at Waterloo. Our village presents a scene of the most heart-rending desolation. a Twelve o’clock, P. M.

James Gorpon Bennett, Esq.— Dear Srr— After a protracted silence, I again sit down to re- late toyou some of the on dits of this great and flourishing City of the Saints, yet in embryo, but destined soon to be the great emporium of the West im religion, literature, morals, government, learning and accomplishments, despite the opposi- tion of newspaper penny-a-liners and pulpit declaim- ers, who pervert truth and traduce the innocent. Isee byan article published in the Times and Seasons, over the signature of Joseph Smith, that some exceptions are taken to some publications of yours in the Herald; and if you should think the gauntlet thrown, an a brave Knight bound to take it up, we shall have the two creat Napoleons, one of the East, and the other of the West—one on the shore of the Mississippi, and the other on the At- lantic, clothed in armour, with lances poised, battling for their respective empires, and if our Western champion’s pen is as mighty as his clo- quence onthe stand, you will have no mean com- petitor. I therefore would advise a close husband- ty of your resources, as there will be blows to re- ceive as well as to give, though all in good feeling, for I know he loves you for your candor and inde- pendence ; but agreat mind seeks greatness when it wants an object upon which it may bestow its en- ergies—although the mighty combat may not cause rivers of blood to flow and the plains to be bleached with human bones—although the earth may not rock to and fro like a drunken man, and the Eagle de- scend from her lofty seat and flap her wings upon the tomb of liberty, still we deem our cause of sufficient importance to declare boldly for our cham;ion, and for whose success and immortal honor we pledge our lives and our sacred honors. A very important trial toek place last week before his Honor the Mayor. Dana vs. Brink, a physician —an action of assumpsit for damages done the plaintiff by Brink the defendant, by maltreating the plaintiff's wife in the character of aphysician. The case occupied the time of the court for two days. Several learned and skilful M. D.’s were examined, and edified the court a whole day in illustrating the principles and science of Toxicology. Joseph Smth, our worthy Mayor, presided with great dignity and decorum, and manifested a considerable know- ledge of ‘law in deciding promptly and correctly on tules,of evidence. Able arguments were made by the Attorneys Skinner and Emmans for plaintifis; ee pad Rigden for defendant. The case not yet lecided. B . Thad the pleasure, a short time since, of looking in on avery pleasant party of young ladies and gen- tlemen assembled at the house of Professor Rigdon. Achoice collection of beautiful ladies graced the party with their presence, who disseminated their smiles and blandishments with nearly as much ef- fect upon the _wights present as does the immortal Cupid himself when he wings the best barbed arrow from his quiver. The walls resounded and reverber- ated with the “melodious notes of song, and joy and padaeee reigned supreme. The venerable hust stood in the centre doer with his silver locks stream- ing over his temples, his Grecian countenance light ed upand beaming ith Peee and happiness at the animated scene around him. The Miss R——'s and the Miss I——’s sang enchantingly. Miss M— looked still more fregoeneeni ng in convales- ence; the accomplished Miss H——n, with the step of a fawn and an eye like the gazelle, for the first time appeared, and added a rich gem tothe beauty and fashion of Nauvoo. Miss B—— looked as charming as usual ; all appeared to enjoy themselves and seemed to appreciate the rich blessings of social enjoyment,with a due regard to the high moral and inte lectual condition of mankind. — “A gentile correspondent in the city of Nauvoo.” “Who is it?” ask the ladies; one says it is Mr. A, another Mr. B., and so on through the alphabet. Now [ will give them a sign whereby they may know. As people seek for a sign in these last days, the first lady who meets me, and says, “As Nathan said unto David, thou art the man,” shall have the admission by the ear of a pair of gloves; but she must be enjoined to silence, and if the hand is not asked in return, why then she will have the gloves in tee simple; and if asked and refused, why then your humble servant will sigh and moan like Romee, “Oh, was I but a glove, and on that hand, that I might touch that cheek, &c.” Our Prophet Joseph Smith has obtained his tree- dom from the shackels of Missouri, which were il- legally imposed upon him, and he now stands re- deemed and disenthralled by the genius of our fe- deral institutions. The charter of our city has been attacked by the legislature of the State, fbut the ood sense of that body frowned it down at once. go we go, overceming all opposition, and risin; triumphant over all religious prejudices, bigotry, an intoleration. With the bible for a standard, that mighty engine of truth, wielded with dexterity and power, this church is peering her head above the religious horizon, soon to set in the very zenith, and from her meridian height dart forth her retulgent raysto the uttermost bounds of the earth. The leader, with a gigantic mind, and indomitable cou- rage, wraps himself in the ample folds of the consti- tution, and bids defiance tu the snarling curs that growl and grind their teeth. Foe after foe falls van- quished at his feet, while he bestows upon them one single look of tender ity and a forced emile at therr folly and temerit: few days since, he delivered aspeech in the City Council on the constitution, which would have done credit to the ‘ God-like Dan” himself. I do not intend to frighten you from the coming contest, but as a friend only advise you of facts, so that you may use the precaution of a skilful general who arranges his army according to the forces which he is to meet.

Apnit 22.—Shindy vs. Skidmore et al.— This was an ac- tion of trespass on the case for unlawfully entering the laintiff's premisos, and for an excessive levy under a land- lord’s warrant. Damoges $1000. ‘The plaintiff was tenant ot a house in Spring street, to a person of the name of Stevens. The latter hud mort- gaged the premises, and a bill was filed to foreclose the mortgage, and under the bili the plaintiff was appointed receiver. The defendant applied to plaintiff (as is usual in such cases) to produce his receipts, but the plaintiff re- fused. The defendant then made an affidavit of two quar. ter’ rent being due, $260, upon which he issued a land. lord’s warrant, and seized for thatamount. It appaared that some arrangement was entered into between plaintiff ‘and Stevens, by which the rent was reduced, and that the plaintiff only owed $125. The defence wasa tender of amends, and that defendant was justified in levying in consequence of the refusal of plaintiff to produce his receipts. Pe Vanverror. Charged the Jury in substance as jows:— Gentirmen—This is an action o ti the plaintiff is bp HS og? and the defendant isa member of the legal profession. It appears from the tes- timony that plaintiff was atenant of Stevens’, and that the control of his (Stevens’) property was taken from him by defendant as a receiver, under an order of the Court of Chancery. An attempt was made in the course of the trial to show that he wae improperly appointed; but, gen- tlemen, in my opinion, this fact has not been established. Counsel always oj their case as fully and as strongly as they can, but whether he was in point of fact receiver, andthe manner m which he was op jinted as far as re- gards his office, for all purposes of this action, you must ‘esume that he got it fairly. It would be doing great in- justice to Mr. Skidmore to say that he had resorted to un- fair means to have himself appointed, but if he transcends his office, he uatly amenable as any other person.
