NEW YORK HERALD. jovember 26, 1845, New Work, Wednesday, Progress of ¢ Success In Converting the Heathen, We published, last week, full reports of the pro- ceedings of the Baptist General Convention for Foreign Missions, which assembled in the Mul- berry street Tabernacle. This body consists of the northern branch of the Baptist Triennial Conven- tion, which held its last meeting in Philadelphia, in April, 1844, and adjourned to meet at Cincinnati, in April, 1847, The sotthern portion of the Conven- tion, it will be remembered, seceded about a year since, in consequence of a circular published, by the acting board, dated at Boston, in reply to certain juestions, propounded by the Alabama Baptist Convention, relative to slavery. The acting board declared they would not, on any consideration, ap- point a slaveholder as a missionary. In conse- quence of this statement, the southern members withdrew, and formed a missionary convention ot their own. The northern branch, therefore, called a special meeting, and edopted a new constitution, changing their name from that of “Baptist General | Convention,” to that of ‘ American Baptist Mis- sionary Union.” There are some very curious and funny things about this constitution. The “ Union” is to be composed entirely of ‘lite members,” and any person, whether a Jew, Turk, or Christian—Unita- rian, Universalist, Infidel, or Catholic, may become members on payment of one hundred dollars. The Chairman proclaimed the object of this arranye- ment to be the collection of dollars—the largest amount of money, he remarked, could be collected by this means. Every member represents one hundred dollars, and kas one vote. An application isto be made to the Legislature of Massachusetts for an act of incorporation; and when a charter is obtained, a great extension of missionary effort may be expected. Attempts will, undoubtedly, be made to evangelize and Christianize the whole world—including this hitherto much neglected por- tion of creatien, called New York. Meanwhile, the Southern convention are extending their opera- tions and usefulness. The American Board ot Commissioners—the Methodists, old school Pres- byterians, Episcopalians, and Catholics—all deter. mined to propagate their peculiar views, and make converts to their dogmas, will have their zeal awakened, their passions aroused, and a grand, and glorious outpouring of the spirit may accordingly be anticipated. Probably not less than a million and a half ot dollars are yearly expended in educating, fitting out, shipping off, and supporting enthusiastic young men in distant and unhealthy climes. The Catholics take the lead in this movement, and appear to be most successful in their efforts to convert the souls of the unbelieving heathen—the missions which they establish, are generally of a permanent char- acter, and, in a majority of cases, support them- selves. The Protestant missions have been much less successful; bat the same spirit—the same natu- ral desire to triumph—animates both parties. Here, then, we see presented, a large number of corporate bodies, and religious institutions, whose ostensible object is the Christianizing of the world. The sympathies of the members overflow, and es- cape in streams ot joy, whenever the subject is mentioned—their hearts gladden with delight | when a prospect is presented of making converts to their peculiar tenets, while boundless pleasure reigns in their souls, when the news of victory arrives— meetings are held in all parts of the country—funds are collected—prayers are offered—speeches made, and young men of talent and ability, are selected and educated as missionaries, from the funds of the society— these are sent off to the banks of the Gan- ges and Burrampooter—to China, Africa, Syria, &e.—to convert the indolent and“uncivilised ine habitants of these regions, to the doctrines and dogmas which are professed by the benevolent mis- sionaries. In this way, a million and a half of dol- lars are expended The Baptist Convention, according to their Trea- surer's report, expended, during the year ending April, 1844, $94,785 28, for this purpose. They have been in existence thirty years, and during that time have made 5000 converts in Asia. The expenses of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, last year, was $264,000, for similar pur- poses. Under the pastoral care of the missionaries of this Board, are sixty-five churches, embracing 24,- 566 members, according to the statement of the Board themselves. It 1s questionable, however, to say the least, if many of these converts to the faith would be received and acknowledged by orthodox professors here. In'England the expenditure is much greater. The Quarterly Review, tor June, 1825, states that £1,000. day were expended on Foreign Missions, which would give us an estimate of £365,000 per annum. Since then, the amount has very much increased. This enormous expenditure, it might be supposed would produce some extraordinary and beneficial results. We might reasonably expect to hear of much good being done, but j lging from all the information in our possession, but little has been achieved. One reason for the want of success at- tending missionary efforts, is to be found in the fact that missionaries do not teach one faith—one religion—but quarrel and fight about minor points. There is no harmony existing between the different sects—heart-burnings, jealousies and bickerings usurp the place of love, kindly feeling, and a one- ness of spirit, faith and interest. The beauty, sub- limity, and purity of Christianity is often lost sight of in controversies about unimportant dogmas and non-essentials, This is a lamentable fact, which requires no proof. Missionaries do not go to heathen lands for the purpose of Christianizing them, but with the avowed intention of making converts to their own sects and creeds. They quarrel about the “ saving power of baptism”—one sect contending that a man must be dipped all over in water—another that he must only have a little sprinkled in his face, in orderto be saved from everlasting perdition and damnation. This absurdly foolish and ridiculous warfare has now lasted many years, and there is no prospect of its being settled very soon. A spirit of rivalry is thus engendered, and native converts are divided into cliques, each clique filled with bitter animosity towards all others. The time that should be devoted to advancing the inoral, spiritual and physical condition of the people, 18 wasted in talking about theological maxims, me- taphysics,and abstruse rules for church government How different from the teaching and example of the mild and lowly Jesus, who commanded charity, humility and love! We would recommend the missionaries to stay at home and settle their differences, before they attempt the conversion of the heathen. They will find a wide field for operations here in their own land; and if the battle must be fought, we should like to see it settled in « proper way within the limits of our own country There is adark and benghted region in this city, hitherto unexplered, called the “Five Points,” to which we would call their attention. Itis said there are a great many “heathen” in that quarter, who have never been visited. An excellent opportu- nity is, therefore, presented for a trial of their pow- ers. The language of these “natives,” to be sure. may be somewhat difficult to understand at firet; but it probably could be mastered in half the time spent in learning Burman or Chinese. There ‘te siso, other portions of Gotham, in which missions might be established with considerable success. — ‘That extensive thoroughfare, called Wall street—the abode of a peculiar people named stock-jobbers, is yet unvisited. From all we can learn about this sin- gular race, we understand they are divided into two classes, or castes, under the name of “bulls” and “beara.” They, also, speak.an unknown tongue, and congregate within the walls, and about the doors, of a magnificent temple, erected to their pa- tron saint, called “Mammon.” They are said to | worship a curiously stamped, circular piece of me- tal, with the singular title of “dollar.” Let them, too, be converted. | We publish these interesting facts for the benefit of the charitable and benevolent, and hope some et" tention will be paid to the conversion of these hea- | thens in our midst, by the missionary associations with which this city abounds. Re-orcanization oF THE Kircuen CasineT.— The new Kitchen Cabinet, under the dynasty of Mr. Polk, is now complete. The President select- ed, a long time since, a regular Cabinet, from the great men ef the nation; but he rejected the re- | mains of the old Kitchen Cabinet, consisting of Blair and Rives, and appointed two chefs du cuisine, Ritchie and Heiss, in their place. But the filling up of this new Kitchen Cabinet, so important an item in every government, both ancient and mo- dern, was left to us. We have furnished three or four excellent reporters from this office, to the Union office at Washington, by which act the new Kitchen Cabinet is now complete. Of course there can be no doubt now that the printing of Congress will be given to Ritchie and Heiss. The members of both houses can have no objections, and can | furnish no excuse. Heretofore, the government organ has been a great annoyance to Mr. Polk and many sensible friends, from its twaddle, its silliness, its verdancy, and its continual recurrence to the dogmas of past ages and the musty resolutions of '99. Notping could be expected from the venerable Mr. Ritchie, who had passed near seventy years in a narrow cir- cle in Virginia, unpracticed in the world—knowing | nothing of its protundity, its depths, or its hollows, | and whose vision never extended beyond the nar- | row boundaries of his native State. But all this | has now passed away. The organ will be one of the most brilliant organs of the government ever | seen or read. The three or tour reporters which | we have furnished that establishment from this o fice, are some of the best in the country—yet we | have as good behind. They have taken their de- | grees in the Herald establishment, and are capable of going through the world under any cireumstan- | ces. We have, indeed, still left, twelve or fifteen, many of whom ure equally good ; but still, it was with great pleasure that we were enabled to fill up the Kitchen Cabinet. Infact, this is only an evi- dence of our system ; for during the last few years, there is scarcely a newspaper in this country that has not had reporters who have taken their degrees in this office. We have no doubt that Mr. Polk will be very grateful to us for taking off his shoulders the trouble of filling up the Kitchen Cabinet, and we are happy to find that Ritchie and Heiss appreciate our efforts. One point, however, we must insist upen: all our reporters, all those who have taken their degrees in the Herald office, and have received their diplomas from this establishment regularly, are gentlemen and scholars, and men ot intelligence. Now, looking at the piece of brutality perpetrated by Heiss, with a cow-hide, towards Grey, areporter, we have some doubts that Ritchie and Heiss may not understand the position they occupy towards men of education and reporters. We never cow-hide a letter writer here or reporters. We treat them as equals, and as men who are to instruct the world, after we leave this vale. We therefore request Ritchie and Heiss to treat them well, for they will give elevation and dignity to the Union, which all the twaddle of Rit- chie and Heiss could not effect. Commercial Posrrion or THE Unirep StaTEs.— Within the past two years there has been acomplete revolution in our foreign export trade. Weare now exporting articles of food in immense quantities, to Great Britain; and the foreign demand for our staples is increasing so rapidly, that we can hardly supply it. Our packet ships are crowded full of flour, grain, beet, pork, cheese, &c. Cotton, at present, appears to be a secondary article for shipment, and is taken principally by transient vessels. Two-thirds of the aggregate value of ourexports, in former years, have been in the great Southern staple; the planters of the South have been almost exclusively benefitted by the increase in our export trade, as it was confined to the productions of their section of the country. Qur exports are now drawn from every section of the Union: the wheat and corn of the West, the pro- ductions of our Northern dairies, are as impor- tant to the people of Great Britain at this time, as the great staple, cotton, has been heretofore. The United States are destined to occupy a position among the commercial nations of the world second to none. We have furnished the raw material to clothe the people of every coun- try, and we are rapidly becoming the granary of the world, and the principal source ot sup- ply tor food to feed the most powerfsl and wealthy nation in existence. Efforts have been made to cultivate cotton in the East Indies, but they have failed, and the manufacturers of Great Britain are compelled to consume that grown in this country by slave labor. Our breadstufis are becoming necessa- ry to the existence of the operatives of that kingdom, and they will be compelled to admit thgm upon the most favorable footing. Considering the immense extent of soil within our limits, our agricultural pro- ductions are very few, which can be attributed almost entirely to the want of markets. The popu- lation of the States is so limited that our surplus pro- ducts are annually large; but with an external demand as large as the opening of the ports of Great Britain would give us, the growth of the principal grains would be immense. The western States alone would supply any deficiency in the harvests of Europe, and nothing would enrich those States so much or so rapidly as an active demand for all the breadstuffs they could produce. Our principal staple produc- tions are so necessary to the nations of Europe, that they must have them. They must be fed and clothed, and in a few years we shall have to supply them with the raw material for these purposes,more extensive- ly than we ever yet have, and our position as a pro- ducing and exporting country, is therefore every year becoming vastly important. Movements at THE Mempuis Convention.—Our reporter has sent us full reports of the proceedings at this Convention to the 15th inst. But very little, however, had transpired that we have not already published. Wee shall continue to receive despatches from our reporter to the day of adjournment. This Convention has created a great deal of ex- citement throughout the south-west and west, and many suppose that its labors will result in a man- ner highly beneficial to the south. It is thought that the elements brought together in Mem- phis may do something. But we doubt whether the whole affair will amount to much inthe end. It has too many political aims. It appears that, not- withstanding the selection of Mr. Calhoun for President, and several leading democrats of the Valley of the Mississippi, for Vice Presi- dents, a large majority of the Convention are whigs ; and although Mr. Calhoun is probably the best man that could have been selected to give character to the meeting, yet he was placed in the chair as an act of policy, and much against the inclination of several whig members, whose aspira- tions seem to be higher than the Executive seat of Tennessee or any other State. Already have dis- sensions crept into the proceedings, especially in the Tennessee delegation, and the present harmonious appearance of the assemb!y is very deceptive. In- deed, we should not be surprised if the whole aflair ended in a row, or something equally as romantic. We are in possession of many curious facts con- nected with this movement, which we may give in due season. They may be interesting to the philoso- pher, in time to come. They may be developed, however, in the future proceedings of the Conven- tion. But, in the meantime, let us hope that some- thing will be done—that some good may come of this meeting. Boarp or ALDERMEN.—There will be a special Meeting of this Board this evening. The Hon. Caleb Cushing was lecture om ni, in Peel a evans ered ® AnoruER OurTRagx anv Gross Pisce or Inramy. —Some time in the beginning of next week, we in- tend to perpetrate another outrage—another terrible act of infamy, upon the lazy and respectable press of this city, if we possibly can. We put in the “if, because the worst intentions, as wellas the best, are | sometimes defeated by the misplacing of a little fi- gure. We mean, on thefarrival of the next Liver- pool steamer, at Boston, to run just such an express as we did the lust time, if we possibly can, and pub- lish ahead of all other newspapers, and send, South and West, the most important news then expected. This atrocious piece of infamy, as it is represented by our amiable contemporaries, is positively resolv- ed upon, and will be perpetrated, if wind, and wea- ther, and events permit. The next news trom England will be even more | important than the last, not only in relation to the revulsion then in progress, but also regard ing the impending famine, the renewed political agitation, and the various extraordinary movements com- menced in western Europe. A great many imagine that the revulsion in England had expended its force at the last accounts; others believe that the deficiency in the crops 1s exaggerated. We doubt both of these opinions, and are more disposed to think that the revulsion has only commenced, and that every arrival and every month will only give us agcounts of increasing calamity and increasing agitation. When the great revulsion in this coun- try, in 1887, broke out firstin Wall street, as all remember, after the commencement, the poor sufferers and dupes amused themselves every day by proclaiming, “ Oh, next mail from New Orleans willenable us to resume; all will be straight to- morrow ; Mr. Biddle has promised us aid from the United States Bank,” all over town. But there was no resumption fer those who failed, no salva- tion for those that trembled. The revolution went on from that time increasing, until it spread over the whole country. Such,we believe, will be the conse- quences of the revulsion now in England, aggra- vated by short crops, prospective famine, high in- | terest, and diminution of specie in the bank. The news by the next steamer, which we intend to run by express, if it can be done, will strengthen | or diminish opinion on this subject—and hence its deep interest. TREATMENT oF SzaMEN ON Boarp U. S. Vessgts. | —A few weeks since, the papers announced the fact that two officers were sent home from one of our vessels on the coast of Africa, to answer certain charges made against them for ungentlemanly and unofficerlike conduct towards each other—in fact, for calling each other sons of quadrupeds, instead of bipeds. This may have been very proper; but what the Secretary of the Navy has done in the matter, the public is at a loss to know. This should not only be the case when officers abuse each other, but when officers so far forget themselves and their station in command, as to have recourse to still more opprobrious epithets to the seamen under | B them, while directing them in the performance of their duty. Many of these men are veterans, ‘and have done the State some service;” and it must be gall and wormwood to their manly spirits to have a stripling of one or two years service, who has got permission to tread a quarter deck, through some political mag@uvre, orelectioneering tactics, address him in terms that would disgrace a Five Point loafer. That this is the case, there are hundreds of sea- men at present in this port who can fully testify ; and this is one cause of the difficulty of manning our vessels with able bodied seamen ; they cannot tamely submit to such conduct and language te- wards them—and why should they? It is to be hoped that the Secretary will direct his attention to this matter. The time may not be far distant when all the talent, energy, and valor of our seamen may be required, and in the language ofan able writer, we say— F «Ob, protect the hardy tar; Be mindful of his merit ; And when again you're plung’d in wa: He'll show his daring spirit.” Macnetic TevecRarH To THE OcEaN.—It ap- pears, by an advertisement in another column, that the “ Offing Telegraph,” connecting the ocean with this city, is completed and will immediately go into operation. Its effect may be like that of the other lightning lines. We have yet to see, however, what this effect is tobe. If the numerous lines of tele- graph now in contemplation meet with the success anticipated, the people of these United States, over twenty millions in number, will be brought to- gether like a small family circle Tue Sentences or THE Anti-Renters.—It will be recollected that we were the first to state, that the sentences of O’Conner and Van Steenburgh,the convicted Anti-Renters, had been commuted to im- prisonment for life in the State Prison. This was doubted by most of our contemporaries. We now have official intelligence of the fact, in the shape of a document signed by Gov. Wright, giving his reasons for the commutation. This important document we give in this day’s paper. Cosine or THE Sgason.—All the accounts from the north indicate the approach of winter and the closing of navigation. Activity, in consequence, seems to prevail along the line of the rivers, &c., and the utmost exertions are making to get all the produce in transitu to market, before the icy hand of winter turns the key of the locks, shutting the boats in the canals. [From the Albany papers of Nov. 24.] There has beena perfect avalanche of flour pouring into our city yesterday and to-day. Every thing that could float has been loaded and forwarded to ‘Afban The Basin d. We venture to say that at 40,000 barrels are to-day afloat in our harbor ! Winter gives us a premonitory this morning. The air is sharp, furnishing unequivocal evidence of having been in close contact with Jack Frost. But we have no cause to grumble, after having been blessed with such a lovely Autumn. We had a slight sprinkling of snow this morning, which melted as soon as it reached the und. The sun shone out finely all day, and the air, although cool, is clear and bracing. About 200 canal boats were in the Basin this morning, loaded principally, with flour. We are informed that several hundred boats are on their way East between Utica and thia city. The present week will doubtless be the busiest of the season, as enormous quantities of flour will come in, swelling the already heavy tolls greatly beyond precedent. From Albany Argus, Nov. 25] Canal basin was Fosterday jammed full nloading produce. ‘The business was very large but ns now with even a greater press considered the last week of cenal and therefore the hot haste will drive far beyond any thing we have seen yet. The news by the Britannia, forces every thing that can be brought to market. We are told that the freight on flour from Buffaloto the Hudson river, has advanced to $1.32 cents per barrel, which is an increase over 100 per cent since the first of September. The Basin is realy a sight at this busy winding up of one of the most busines sons ever known here. Phe quantity of flour which arrived in this city, via, the during the last week, exceed that of any previous —large as it was the preceding week. It was within a fraction of 190,000 barrels, Tl of our city continue to present the most unexampled activity. The world of western produce constantly pouring through the canal into our burbor is perfectly astonishing. Many of the boats are towed through to New York, but hundreds are still remaining in the river and basin, waiting for an opportunity to exchange thoir cargoos. Several extra tow boats ha been chartered to port Beas yom down the river—the large yed, number regularly emp being entirely insufficient to meet the wants of the forwarders,” ™umolen 42 New York Election.

Panx Tuxatax.—The elegant, agreeable and favorite Comedy of “London Assurance” drew a highly fashion. able and intelligent audience together last evening. We have frequently spoken in terms of unqualified praise of the performance of Mr. Placide. Mis personation of the character of Sir Harcourt Courtly is inimitable—the maaner, dress, look and tone of voice, art keeping with the ‘sovereign of the w Bland played Lady Gay Spanker most charmingly. Her | description of the “hunt” was spirited and nervous, and | the whole performance was characterized by archness, vivacity and lady-like demeanor. Some of the other per- | formers, however, were rather “shy;” but the piece as a | whole d off with eclat. Mr. Placide played Grand- father Whitehead with his usual pathos nnd feeling. ‘The delineation of this character is thought by many to | be too life-like and startling to be agreeable at all times, it leaves a feeling of horror in tho mind; aud we shudder when we think human nature can ever be s0 base as to produce such agonizing and heart rending results. This, however, only serves to reflect more credit on the skill of the artiste who enters so deeply into the mysteries of the human he: and draws its beauties and its deformi- tios into open day. To-night the delightful and celebrated comedy of the "is presented, in which Mr. Plu- cide aud Mrs. Vernon appear. After which, Mr. Placide plays his mirth-provoking character of Dulcimer Pipes,in the capital farce of the “Double Bedded Room.” Bowery Tuxatar.—A grand gala ac! ment last night at the “Metropolitan,” with Yankee Hill, J.

Delavan’s detachment at Fort Washington and McGowan’s Pass. At 11 o’clock the line, composed of the different companies who intended to parade, was formed in Washington Square. Here, after undergoing a review, they passed through the prin. cipal streets of our city,and reached the Battery at about \2o’clock. A halt was made in front of Washington's head-quarters in 1783, and an American flag was hoisted. ‘When on the Battery, a flag was hoisted on the Battery staff by David Van Arsdall, whose father performed the same duty sixty years ago. They then marched,to the Park where,after passing in review Rotors the Mayor and Council, and partaking of refreshment in the City Hall, and firing a feu de joie, they were dismiss- ed. Weare Happy to say that in spite of all the opposi- tion, nearly all the companies in the city were out. The Philadelphia Washington Grays marched with the 3d Regimont of Washington Grays of this city. Several companies, with their General Officers, the Mayor and A ad lp yo afterwards proceeded to the Arsenal, agreeable to the invitation ef Gen.

Isaiah Rinders presided, who made an animated speech, recounting his past services—his frequent abuses—and his noble daring to confront his accusers. He was lis- tened to throughout, and received the ample and extenu- ating vindication which his situation, in a political sense, seemed to demand. In connection with this matter, we are apprised of tho fact that tho Empire Club give a ball, at Tammany Hall, on Friday next—preparations of an extensive ort are already made, to make this one of the most popular and distinguished balls of the autumnal season. ASrrancer Ropnen at tue Boweny.—A resident at Newtown, Sandy Hook, by the name of John Whiley, while witnessing the performances at the Bowery Thea: tre last evening, was robbed ef his pocket book, contain- ing (ket moneys and pa notes of hand, ni ly due, one of which was drawn in favor of Mr. W. for the other for $187. eee Tne Bopy or Di in the East River identified as being tl fishing at Hurl Gate, in consequence of the boat capsizing.

Srortinc Marters.—Quite a large concourse of peo- Je attended the Centreville Course, L. I., yesterday, on fhe occasion of a trotting match, (mile heats, best three in five) announced to come off betweon Col. Bar- tine’s mare Aggy Down, and J. D. McMahon’s (sorrel rey) Peacock, for $50 aside, added to which a purse of 30 was given by the proprietor of the ground. ‘The bet- ting, ‘atthe start, was six to four in favor of the horse, which distanced its competitor in the first heat in two minutes and thirty-four seconds. After the close of this | contest the same parties again matched their horses for $50, and the result was a second conquest for Pea- cock, who gallantly and easily won three consecutive heats, making first rate time in each mile. The meeting of the Anglo-American Shooting Club on Monday, was numerously attended, and in a very short time upwards of one hundred harmless and unsuspecting igeons were despatched by the determined and unre- lenting sportsmen who assembled to annihilate them. — The crack shot of the day was a resident of New York. Last evening, the Union Star Cricket Club were to have met at Gascoigne’s house, in Myrtle avenue, to vlect officers for the ensuing year ; but only two or three gen- tlemen attended the requisition of the President, and for the present the affairs of thofassociation remain’ in statu quo. ‘There is evidently much mismanagement in tho affairs of this club, and unless better attention be paid to its interests and business details, it will be dissolved in such a manner as scarcely to leave a wreck behind. Fasnioxante Wepoixc.—On Sunday last, a young, lovely and accomplished daughter of Gee Sprague, was married to a gentleman of New York, in the pre- shionable party of friends who expressed many wishes for the happiness of the newly wedded and well matched pair. Opp FeiLows.—At a special session of the R. W. Grand Encampment of the State of New York, held last week, a charter was granted for a new Encampment, to be lo- | cated in Brooklyn, It is called Mizpah Encampment, | No.25, of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and | will be instituted very soon. A number of distin- ene past officers and most active members of the rder, residing in Brooklyn, will immediately become | members. Stirling Lodge, No. 190, was instituted last evening at the Montague Rooms, corner of Montague and Fulton streets. A large number of the Order from New York were expected to be present. Pouce Iress.—The house of Mr. Whitehorse, No. 70 Rensen street, was yesterday entered by a thief, during the temporary absence of the inmates, and robbed of several articles of silver ware ; and.on Monday an apartment in the premises of Mr. Dowing, No. 283 Jay street, was visited in a like felonious manner, by some rowling vagabond, who stole thence a pilot cloth coat. We are informed by an Ex-Alderman of the city, that ata house in the Wallabout Road, not very long siace, three men were observed by a 1 whose name he is in pi onof, in the act of dividing among them a large quantity of valuable cutlery, which the gang had with them in a carpet bag. From particulars which have since been communicated to us, we have no doubt that the property was stolen from one of the large wholesale establishments in New York, engaged in the i ion of such articles ; and we, therefore, a the police of Brooklyn to be immediately a the qui ain all the facts connected with this very suspi- cious affair.

Mr. Gil: Metancno.y Surcipg.—On Sunday morning last, the body of a female was discovered floatin, in the canal near McKinney’s store house, in this village, by one of the lock-tenders, Thomas De Witt, who procured assistance and removed it from the water. It proved to be the body of Elizabeth J. Speed, a girl oged nineteen, late of Norwich, Chenango county. An inquest was held before Coroner Congdon, at which the following facts were elicited :—Elizabeth J.Speed came to Binghamton some five or six weeks previously, remaining with some relatives, who are among out respectable citizens, until a week or ten days since, when she engaged herself to do house-work in the family of Mr. A.C. Angell. She proved a good girl, but was very silent and sedate. On Saturday eve- ning she retired to the room where she slept, with another young woman, whe went to bed and finally to sleep, leaving Elizabeth looking over her trunk. Noth- ing further is positively known of her until she was found dead as related ; but it appears sufficiently evident that, after her companion was asleep, she changed her clothes, arraying herself with much’ o e, put on her bonnet and shawl, and left the house. The next trace of her is on the west side of the canal, on the dock by Lewis’ store-house, where her bonnet and shawl were found carefully Pon together, and whore she doubt- less threw herself into the water ; whence, buoyed by her clothes, she floated down the canal some forty or Her dress was pinned to her stocking lay much upon th surface, and her clothing was unruffled, and not entirely saturated with water. We have some additional particulars connected with this most melancholy occurrence, from a source wo deem reliable, which may throw some light upon the motives which influenced this unfortunate girl to the terrible act of self-destruction.

The line of the Vermont Central Rail Road, from the mouth of White river to lake Champlain, is now all loca- ted by the directors. ,At a meeting of the directors in Boston, a further hearing Was had on the question be- \ween the Northfield and the ‘Gulf route, called. The Northfield route is a few miles the long: but the | difficulties of the Gulf route, through Williamston, are so great as to render the Northfield route most deci- dedly preferable. In the Gulf route, much of the line is on side hills, with heavy and expensive cutting, short curves, and in many respects an unfavorable and un- safo route; while the route from Royalton, through Northfield and Berlin, to Montpelier, is of easy gradients, not exceeding forty featto the milo, favorable for con- struction, and no short curves. The engineers were unanimously in favor of the Northfield rou! ind as de- cided in their opinion against the Gulf route. A full hearing of all the parties, on this important question, | wan lately had at Montpelier; theengineers have spent much time and labor in obtaining repeated and accurate surveys of the two routes, and the directors themselves have given much of their attention to the investigation and examination of the subject,—the unanimous conclu. sion of all parties being in favor of the Northfield route.

The falling off ia quotations for sterling exchange within the past month, | has been about two per cent, and the tendency is still , downwards. Under the extensive exports of our staple independent of our usual shipments of cotton, and the probable demand in Great Britain for our breadstuffs during the year, sterling exchange must touch a much lower point than has been realized for some time past. Our imports at prosent are not very large, particularly those from Great Britain, and the balance in our favor on our trade with that country for the coming year, must | be very large.
