Ayer Tochman's Cas, The criminal court forthe District of Colum: bia commenced its summer term this morning. Major Tochman’s case, (for challenging J. H. Bradley, Esq.,) was among the first taken up. Ma- jor Tochman is a Polish political exile, and is now a member of the New York bar. The heirs of Ge- neral Kosciusko, residing in Poland, engaged his legal services to recover certain property in this district. M. de Bodisco, Minister from Russia, on the other hand, engaged the legal services of Mr. Bradley for the same heirs, and attempted to super- sede the authority ot Major Tochman—the laws o! Russia forbidding Russian subjects to transact any business with the political exiles from Poland. In consequence of this actof M. de Bodisco, a dif- ewty arose between Major Tochman and Mr. Bradley—the latter having used some offensive ‘anguage during the argument of a case. Major Tochman appealed to the court for protection, vhieh not being granted in his opinion, he chal- jienged Mr. Bradley, and published a people en- titled “Exposé of the conduct of Joseph H. Dvadley, counsellor employed by the Impe- rial Jussian Jegation _ towards Major G. Tochman, counsellor employed: by the heirs of For this, Major Tochman has been indicted by the grand jury here, and to-day fixed tor his trial. The Hon. Reverdy John- U.S. S., appeared for Major Tochman, and c the District Attorney, for the United State: Mr. Johnson said he believed that Major Tochman could have a fair and impartial trial in the District, but that the committee of the judiciary in the Senate upon considering Major Tochman’s petition in this respect, agreed upon recommending to Congress the passage of the law of venue, that he might remove his cause to the U.S. Circuit Court at Baltmmore, The change of venue under similar cireumstances being the right of the de- fendant, Mr. Johhson submitted to the decision ot the coprie whether it would not be gue to Major Tochman to postpone the trial of his case until the bill of" venue should be disposed of by Con- gress. The District Attorney said he would agree to the postpcnement of the trial for a few Mays, to commodate ie Hon. Senator, if he asked it for S own convenience; but he objected to the post- ponement in order to enable the defendant to avail himself of the expected law of venue ; the case commenced here, and it should be tried here. ‘To this Mr. Johnson replied that the right of changing the venue, gives the right to remove the case from the court where it originally commenced. Subse-. quently, the court suggested the postponement, of the trial until Wednesday, the 28th inst., which was agreed to and ordered. m. Gen. Kosciusko.” SuINGTON, June 19, 1848. The Medicine Bill—Newspaper Postage Bill. It has been two weeks or more since Dr. Ed- wards, of the House of Representatives, introduc- ed the bill in relation to excluding trash, honored with the name of medicine, which European vil- lains send into this country to poison our citizens, finding that they can destroy us in no other w: The bill went through the House without debate, and quicker than a Brandreth pill could pass through the human system. The Senate, when they received it, were struck with costiveness, and there the bill sticks, bound up in the Commit- tee of Commerce. Mr. Dix has been remodelling, it — trimming and cutting down the salaries of the examiners. Meanwhile, hundreds and thou- sands of pounds of trash, poison, are arriving at New York, as I have been informed by those who have received letters upon the subject. There is no law which-imposes an analysis: the article must be passed at its adjudged value. Humanity alone, if nothing else, should force through this bill with the least possible delay. Mr. Dix has promised to press the subject to-morrow, and I es he ma: have an opportunity to do so. Barn- burners and hunkers, Cass men and Taylorites, are all in favor of the measure, and politics are not likely to enter into the discussion. . i Your reporter has sent you an abstract of the bill passed by the House to-day, regulating the postage on newspapers, One more step shoutd be taken before the session closes; und that is, to reduce the postage on letters to an uniform rate of five cents, or three cents for distances under three hundred miles, and five cents over, for a half ounce. Th conld easily be done, if the franking privilege were curtailed. | Only think, five or six cart loads of do- cuments will fall to the lot of every member of Congress—at least fifteen hundred cart loads inal! —a greater bulk, perhaps, than all the letters which pass through the post offices in six months. The people will soon demand as favorable a law as that which exists in England, which 1s pro al for hi ‘axation. Why cannot the citizens of this great republic, where the people are said to rule, compel their 1 te the ta om upon their letiers?. Gentlemen, never mind Cave Johnson. Go ahead in this reform. t Fenix. Wasninaton, June 20, 1848—3 A. M. The Websterian visit to Baltimore, in Thunder, Lightning, and m Rain—Postponement of the Raticfiation. Mr. Webster and family, accompanied by Messrs. Stevens, of Georgia: Thompson, of Indiana; Wil- son, of New Hampshire; Ashmun, of Massachu- setts; Chapman and Dixon, of Maryland, of the House; Hon. John Bell, of the Senate; and several yeporters, your's among them, went over to Balti- ore this afternoon, on the heels of a thunder »wer, Arrived at Barnuin’s just in time to dis- cover that the lightning and the rain would occupy the whole evem Hence, upon consultation with Mr. Webster, by the committee, it was promptly agreed to postpone the demonstration tll to-morrow night. Meantime, there was a gathering of the rank and file in front of Barnum’s, who would admit of no apology short of a speech or two, In answer, at length, to their repeated calls, Mr. Z. Collins Lee came out onthe stoop, and addressed them briefly in support of the nomiations of the late last past whig convention. He was followed by Hon. R. W. Thompson, of Indiana, one of the most popular stump speakers of the day, in a strong appeal for Old Zachary. He dwelt particularly upon the broad and comprehensive creed ot Gen. Taylor, 4s compared with the narrow and contracted pro- erustean programme of the Baltimore convention. Mr. M. H. Morris, of Baltimore, and George R Richardson, Esq., followed next, in obedience to nds of the sovereigns. Mr. Richardson’s first choice was Gen. Taylor, because he did not wish to see Henry Clay humiliated by another de- He expatiated upon the sterling qualitie neral Taylor, as called out by his battles in Mexico, and said that while old Rough and nelly was a lion and tiger in battle, he was a lamb in his mildness (ride the well-known fable of AZsop,) when the victory won, and was characterized by a sense of justice almost equal to that of God himself. (if our ears did not deceive us, within six feet of the spea he certainly did—carried off by his enthusiasm—make this declaration. It was no doubt a slip.) In conclusion, he called for aloud acclaim, a universal shout, which should reverberate fromthe Atlantic to the Mississippi, and from Maine to Georgia. The meeting accord- ingly put up a hurrah; but it was not equal to the demand; for, on inquiry, since our return, we ascertain that it was not heard even as far as Washington, a distance of only forty miles, It continued raining softly during the meeting, which in some degree tended to dampen the ardor of the crowd. The proceedings were interspersed with frequent shouts of hurrah for ass and Butler, from the borders of the crowd; wut altogether, it was the coolest and most orderly outside meeting we ever attended. We should have sent you a word or two by tele- graph, had not the lightning taken complete possession of the wires, speaking in language not to be interpreted by Morse’s alphabet, and finally ordering the operators off their stools by disloea- ting the magnets The thunder of Jove havi of that of Mr. Webster, he gave way like tian, in the hope of an opportunity to deliver him- self to-morrow evening. Weexpect. he will en- dorse the nominations he did in 1844, and again come in as Secretary of State, in the event Gen. Taylor's election You will get a full report of the proceedings.

The magnificent steamer Crescent City, to the merits of which you have done such ample justice, in your peculiarly glowing and graphic style, reach- ed here yesterday at about haif past eight o’clock, amidst the admiring gaze of thousands, who flock- edto the levee to witness her rapid and graceful performance. She is, indeed, all youdescribe her; and must prove a source of as much profit and plea- sure to her benificent and enterpri stockhold- ers, as she will of pride and convenience to this hitherto comparatively isolated, prosperous, and continually growing portion of the great con- federacy. jousands and tens of thousands will now repeatedly visit the great “Gotham,” from hence and our tributaries, who, under the old regime, of protracted and dangerous trayel, would be content to stay at home ; to say nothing of the innumerable delicacies which il be introduced among us in five or six or days after they reach your market, which otherwise would tade and de- compose amid the sated appetites of your doubly rewarded northers. Methinks I am already set- ting down to a dish of lobster, taken from on bourd the Crescent City, as fresh, and in as good keeping as that meted out at the Astor, or any other of your numereus resorts for the pleasure and preservation of the inner man. 1 expect to receive many and many afresh salmon from you, after I shall have earned them by a faithful delineation, epistolary, of what transpires here, in the intellec- tual and’ moral doings of God’s creatures, under all the influences which can be arrived at. The most intense anxiety is felt, on the part of, the whigs, to be informed of who will be the nomi- nee of the whig convention now in session ia Phi- ladelphia. They are about divided in their choi between Mr. Clay and General Taylor; and 5 w there is any cre pondctanges Tam inclined to believe it is in favor of the former. The party in favor of the latter have been christened the ‘striped pig” whigs, which cognomen is so ungrateful to their taste that many have seceded, and will continue to secede, and oceupy aneutral ground, until later in the cam- paign. The truth of th matter is, that Louisiana 1s emphatically democratic, and cannot be other- wise, from the nature of its mixed and unhomoge- neous population. It is democratic, understand me, numerically, physically, and, no doubt, intrinsical- ly, morally; but intellectually, or, rather, learnedly, agreeably to the dictates of the schools, it is on the deficient ide of the question, and will remain so until draining machines, backed by nerve and ca- pital, are induced to make its swamps and their ittendant mortality ‘bloom as the rose.” Whether Cass or Taylor be President, it is to be hoped thata radical reform will be effected throughout the Jength and breadth of the public federal economy here; for it is more greatly desecrated to ends at war with the public interest than in any other large commercial mart in this Union; simply for the rea- son that its population, with few exceptions, care not for anything but a desire to retire from hence to their native or a more salubrious clime, as soon as possible. Without doing any one the least injustice, I will, in some of my future communications, ‘a tale unfold,” which will make you stare, as old.a stager as you are, and as keen and unerring observer as you have been of men and things in the various ramifications of the great political American dramas. Clay under- stands the ropes here appertaining to the ship of ate, and would cut off the excrescencies to a single yarn, if the people of America would give him an opportunity ; but am afraid that he and ** Ashland,” for the next four years at least, are to be assimilated in a domiciliatory connection, and that that connection is never to be severed by the ballot-box of the national franchise. Perhaps it is as well, if not better, that it should be so, as we are a progressive people, and will never be satis- fied until Europe, Asia, Africa and that part of America not our own, walk hand in hand to the tune, and under the command of our federal char- ter, in perfect “ fraternization,” to use a Freach term, which is all the rage now; or. be more American, on the same “ platform” with the now thirty sovereignties comprising “us all.” Cass is “‘some_ pumpkins,” and will do the needful, in the office line, if he is elected, which I hope and trust will be his fate. Iam no democrat as embraced on their whole platform—you see I use that ex- pressive, new coined word, again—but I am, what I conceive to be, a least evil man. I will, explain the exact dogma of that creed at a future time. The weather is oppressively warm, and has been for some time past. I am apprehensive that the large number of men which will be thrust upon us by the peace with Mexico—a consummation, how- ever, devoutly to be wished—will be fraught with strous mortal consequences, as they will be all, or nearly so, the fittest subjects for our, at best, polluting summer climate. ‘They will be like so many birds let out of a cage, and will not be re- strained from the fatal indulgences with which we lam sorry to say, more rife than elsewhere, e inore order and less law is considered suf- ent forthe harmony and prosperity of the com- pact. Although not more timid than the most of men with whom I have come in contact, I tremble for the accounts which you will get from here be- fore the summer is over. We shall see, and shall be better able after seeing, how to appreciate future wars, when waged with as much justice and as lit Ue profit, throughout all the phases of that term, as will characterise that with Mexico, Business with us is very dull. Cotton is almost a drug. Our receipts ‘shall, no doubt, reach 1,200,000 bales! When it is reflected that the crop of the United States, will be hardly 2,300,000.— We shall get, you will say, more than our share. ‘Throughout the length and breadth of the West and South-west, the most flattering accounts are being had of the future prospects of the approach- ing harvest. [or its sake, and that of what we shall have over and above what will be wanted at home and abroad this season, it is to be hoped that France, and the rest of ourconsumptive Eu- are whe ropean friends, will know what they are about before they attempt to change their forms of go- verninents. CREOLE. avannan, June 15, 1848 Appearance of Savannah. But L have not mentioned that which * pleased me most,” as they say in the “marble halls.”— The first impression on arriving at Savannah is un- favorable, viewed from the deck of a steamer, which is caused by the gloomy and prison-like ap- pearance of the stores “ under the bluff,” but after getting up into the city, the change is most delight- ful and extremely pleasing. From under the sandy bluff, and ancient, black warehouse, you step, as it were, into Elysian Fields and consecrated groves, fit only for the habitation of the gods and goddesses. The view from the top of the E y street, is very pleasing. Just imagine to yourselt a city built in the woods with every tree standing that possibly could be left, and you may form some idea of the appearance of this c New York is called the Fountain City ; Baltimore, the Monu- mental City ; New Orleans, the Crescent City, and Savannah ought to be ealled the Forest City. A number of the streets, if streets you may call them, remind me more of lengthened arbors; they have | th rows of trees in them, one on each side and one through the centre ; ali the other streets have two rows of trees in them, ; | There are twenty public squares interspersed through the city, and from the top of the Exchange, where Lam at the “ present speaking,” you cannot see where they are located, the trees and foliage are so thick, and appear as though you could step | out and walk all over the city without falling | through into the streets below. you will lend me your hand and help me down, peony re may xchange, in Bay hear again from your friend, Barrimorr, June 20, 1848. Whig Ratification Meeting Postponed—Mr. Web- ster—Sons of Temperance—Laap Year Preroga- tives—The Devil among the Women—Effect of the Weather, §¢. The whig ratification meeting that was to come off last night at Monument Square, was postponed on account of a heavy storm of rain, which came down at the appointed time, drenching the multi- tude, and dispersing them before the meeting was organized. Mr. Webster, and the other distin- quished speakers from Washington, were present, and promptly consented to remain until this eve- niug, to which time the meeting was postponed. There was every evidence, last night, of the meeting being immense and enthusiastic. The National Division of the Sons of Tempe- E somprising delegates from every St the Union, will assemble in this city this morning. They are to hold a mass meeting on Wednesday | evening, at Monument Square, and on Friday evening, in the saloon of the grand temperance temple, now building on Gay street, The Rev. John Haly, said to be the oldest Bap- . of Ralimers, if p, the oem rting ear ewaine ia a jnenner't at bout some singular breach of promise the past week no less than two professional gentlemen of Baltimore have received the mitten on what was to be have been their wed- ding nights; and in one case the guests had assem- bled, and the parson was in attendance, when the bride suddenly disappeared. Whetherit was on ac- count of the heat of the weather, I know not ; but certain it is that the weather was decidedly too hot for any sane man and woman to think ot com- mitting matrimony. One of the disconsolate (the iawye) swains has again returned to the camp and renewed his bonds, but the other (the doctor) stands off and pouts, and has been so ver inconsiderate as to exhibit certain tender little bil- let doux that he had previously received from his wife that was to be. ee Put.apetriia, June 20, 1848. Effects of the Storm on the Telegraphic Wires—Con- viction for Rape—Accidents. The storm raged here most furiously yesterday afternoon and evening, the lightniag entirely sus- pending all telegraph operations; and so much da- mage has been occasioned to the Morse line, be- ween this and your city, that it will probably re- quire several days to repair. A large number of posts were knocked down near Tacony and Prince- ton, The House line has fortunately escaped, and the connection was resumed this morning, but the lightning has again taken possession of the wires. To preserve the magnet at New York from injury, it has been disconnected. The magnet here 1s pro- tected by one of the ingenious machines invented, tor the purpose by M_. Reid, the superintendent of the Atlantic and Ohio Teiegraph Line; and if the New York office was similarly provided, there would now be no interruption, ' The line south of this has not been interrupted, and the western line is working to Pittsburg. " A young fellow, named M*‘Canna, was this morning convicted in the Court of Quarter Ses- sions of a rape committed upon the person ot a married woman, Catharine Callahan. The of- fender is about 20, and the woman at least double his age. nae Mr. Woods, an elderly female, residing in Ken- ington, was struck by the lightning last evening, nstantly killed. “She was in the yard at the ume. Robert Snowden, a young man employed at Minck & Town’s iron’ foundry, was instantly kulled last evening by the fall of a piece of iron. John Kelly, a workman employed on the St. Augustine’s church, was taken to the hospital this morning, with his skull fractured by the fall of a brick from the tower building upon that edifice. June 19, 1548. Movement in Politics in Massachusetts, tending to the Presidential Election. The papers will give you a full account of the Tay!or whig meeting at Faneui! Hall, on the even- ing of the 17th. It was fully attended by men of all’ parties—old whigs, new whigs, democrats, abolitionists, &c. The weather, too, was superb, which was in its favor. I have never had much doubt of this city going “straight out” for Tay- lor; but a visit to the country has convinced me that the integrity of the whig party in the rural districts, and in the small towns, is sadly da- maged. The address published by Henry Wilson, who represented the late Mr. Adams’s district in the late Philadelphia Convention, expresses the present opinions of at least one-half the country whigs, perhaps, if not more. To offset this disaf- fection in the whig ranks, I know of nothing in the democratic party, unless it be true, as is freely said here, that the officials in our post office and cus- tom house, are for Taylor, Several of them, it is true, did sign the call for the Taylor meeting; but this is a. mere drop from the ocean, and cannot be held to indicate much. Whatever ue have been the character of the recent anti-Taylor whig meeting in your city, 1 can truly assure you that it has had no small eflect in this State already—or rather, I should say, in, thisregion. The way it works is this. Many of our whigs, who are dissatisfied with Taylor’s no- mination, are, at the same time, not satisfied to throw their votes with a mere faction, as the bolt- ing whigs of new England would be, if unsupport- ed by any portion of their party in the other free States; but if they could become convinced that, they would be supported by some thousands of undoubted whigs in New York, Ohio, and else- where, they would bolt forthwith. ‘They wish to preserve their consistency, and, at the same time, avoid ridicule. They see, by the movement in your ¢ity, and by accounts from Ohio, that there is a chance, at least, of General Taylor being vig rously opposed by geome men of undoubted whig- very in influential States, and they hope to make their united opposition tell. Ihave heard this sub- stantially said by a score of men who voted for Clay in 1844, within the last twenty-four hours; and it isa note-worthy fact, that it comes from men who are either members of the “ rotten” or conservative branch of the party, or who have, at any rate, never been identified with the ‘ con- science,” or radical branch of their political organ- ization. You can draw your own conclusions, as os your hundred thousand readers. I only state acts. The split in the whig organization, ‘if it come to any thing serious, will extend far beyond the Presidential question. It may not affect the go- vernorship, as (rovernor Briggs is so generally, and I must add, deservedly popular, both as a man and an officer, that neither faction will venture to throw him over. But it will affect the Con- gressional elections; and a very intelligent whig, who supports Taylor, told me that he was prepared for the deteat of ‘six of the ten whigs now in Con- gress from this State. There are thousands of conscience” whigs, abolitionists, and _liberty- en, in the 2d, 3d, 4th, Sth, Sth, 9th and 10th dis- arce in all the others My own opinion is, that if the whig dis- afiection should come to a head, and if the democ- racy should come out in their full strength—the first a very probable event, and the latter as mach of a certainty as any human thing of the future can be—there will be a choice of member of Congress in only one district, and that the 1st, which is Mr. Winthrop’s ae It requires a majority to choose all officera in this State, a condition of things which throws prodigious power into the hands of voters, and which enables them at any time that they can get hold of a good solid grievance—or what 18 supposed to be such—to break up the strongest political organization. How these probable vacancies will ultimately be filled up, will depend upon the result of the Presidential contest. Should General Cass be elected, they will gradually be recovered by the whigs, with one exception, or perhaps two; but should General Taylor be chosen, they will, in all human proba- bility, be carried by the democracy, with two ex- ceptions, or perhaps three. The success of ‘Taylor would be held as virtually extinguishing the whig laa in New England, in the eyes of a sufficient portion of its members to render their opinion a certain fact, In that event, the bulk of the demo- cratic party in these States will engraft on their original principles those now held on the suoject of slavery, by the ‘conscience ” whigs; while the latter vill adopt—most of them already adopted—those of the democracy on the tariff, currency, &c. It isa fact that I ought to particu. larly mention, that, as a body, the ** conscience” whigs are not opposed to an extension of territory, but only to the admission of slavery into such acquisitions as the nation may muke. ‘There is nothing to prevent a cordial unton of at least four- fifths of the democracy, one-third of the whigs, and one-halt of the liberty-men, at the first important election held after Taylor’s triumph 4 The position of the democracy is just this: they say, that, if Gen. Cass should be beaten, it will happen from the ‘coming in of the South,” which voted for his nomination at Baltimore, against a New England man, of undoubted talent and availability ; and that, therefore, they shall hold themselves absolved from all obligation to stand between the South and the full effects of the spread and final ascendancy of the abolition senti- tricts, and they are by n ment. They determined not to permit the South to play over the game of 1840 with impu- nity, when so many of its States went against Mr, Van Buren, whose popularity at the North had been seriously damaged by his supposed andue ree gard for southern princip! This state of oput- ion ought to afford matter for the gravest reflection on the part of southern men ; and | mention its ex- istence in the Herald as being likely thereby to draw their attention to it. My remarks hold good of all the New England States, and I take the Yan- kee privilege of guessing that they might be not | quarreling: ond dovated we speak hereafter, 01 the cara, I quietly perused the we were fairly under way, When I undertook to note the company that had congregated around me. First, and foremost, at my elbow, sat my friend, and companion, G. L. N., a fellow for whom I have the most profound regpeet; and for whom at any time I would wade through fire and flood to serve. But, he is a beau, and is, I feel as- sured, at present, thinking less of me than of the oung brunette that sits in an adjoining seat.— Ths young lady’s name is B.; her father, who is along, I beheve was formerly a New York al- derman, and may well be proud of his chaboning daughter-——who, by her animated conversation,an agreeable manners, besides her beauty, has drawn upon her all eyes, and it ean be well said, that she is “the observed of all observers.” Immediately in front of hersits a lady,who has long since passed the meridian of life; and her furtowed brow, her suuken eye, all conspire to create such a confusion between the two,that the heart fairly sickens at the thought that youth must pa: ge come, ear us sit the politicians of difi+rent schools, who are entertaining themselves by an argument upon the merits of Taylor and Cass, Before them is a pretty country lady, of some twenty summers, who, with her husband, seems mightily pleased at the of the politicians. opposite to the seat occupied by me are two lasses, light-hearted and gay, who have discarded the care of a young mother, and now scem pleased at being alone, and grecdily watch the sly glances of several gallant ucks, who sit close athand. There isa mixed collection of young and old, who all give evidence that one earaate of pleasure—reigns para- mount to all others, at the present time. Thus our company was most agreeable, taken as a whole; and as my friend and myself left the nd took a tour through the whole train, we noticed that the company were generally of the same class, except those in the refreshment car, where they were somewhat varied in character from that in the others. 3y this time, our clothes were so completely be- smeared with dust, that their true colors would have been hard to ascertaia. But we soon forgot both our garments and the dust, in the contempla- tion of the beautiful scenery through which we were then passing. For a moment, on either side, stretched a meadow, clad in its robes of living green, that seemed trimmed with i Is_as the glittering dew which hung to it sparkled 1n the as- cending sun, Then came extended fields of corn, wheat, rye and oats, that had already r quite a height from the soil, and gave promise of ample crops. The scene was also embellished by neat farm-houses, pretty towns and villages, by plains, valleys, lawns, brooks, and rivers; in fact, the view was one that 1s seldom seen in such a complete phase of beauty as on Long Island. Passing trom our position to the refreshment car, my friend directed my at‘ention to the arrange- ments of the place, which consisted ofa plain board table, arranged bar-like across a portion of the car, leaving sufficient standing-room on one side and one end. Behind it were three bar-tenders, who were constantly busy in serving the thirsty mortals that crowded about the bar. _ Upon enqui- ry we learnt the proprietor of it was Mr. Van Nor- den, of Brooklyn, a well-known saloon-keeper, and general favorite among all classes, for his exempla- ry conduct and kindness of heart Our eyes now caught a glimpse, through the crowd of a number of Brooklyn men, or boys, as they are facetiously termed, each celebrated in his line, for some pe culiarity, who were amusing themselves by all manner of skylarking, that pleased not only them- selves but most of the bystanders, who laughed loud and long. 4 ‘ After a short sojourn in this modern Babel, we retired, and retracing our way back, found in a part of one of the cars, a party engaged in singing not only most of the Christy songs, but. selec- tions of sacred music, that was well led off b: of the singers. At intervals the song was hu and a cheer for Taylor, loudly s; person present, would drown th cars, and breaking forth, traverse echo be heard among the far distar Arriving at Farmingdale, a tin was seen nearing a fence on the rig and exposing to view two small | of straw- berries. This was a temptation n ye resisted, and although the cars were on thee» of starting, the writer sprang from them in less (ian no time, purchased the berries, and returned to_ his quarters. One box was handed into an adjoining car, the other through our own, and the ladies licited to partake, which they generally did, repaying the presentee a hundred fold by their gentle and kindly smiles. Thus time rolled on, and at, twelve, M., we run out upon the railroad bridge at Cran heartily rejoiced that we had arrived, as the fatigue was becoming painful in the extreme. Viewing the town from the bridge, it appears to have been originally built, ata distance from Peconic Bay, which flows before it. But the railroad being immediately on the shore, ithas drawn the village towards the water, and it has thus become quite long, with little width. Near the river thers was mach bustle, from the loading and unloading of several schooners and loops, and the repairing of four whale ships that are moored at the dock; blacksmiths, taverns, schools, and shops of every variety, are plentiful in the place; and the neatness and beauty of the dwellings, mostly small cottages, speak well for the taste of the inhabitants. Numbers of our party on their arrival, took steamboat for Sag Harbor. Here we concluded to remain, and accordingly wended our way to the Peconic House, which 1s situated in direct view of the bay, and is one of the most tidy, and well regulated houses I ever en- tered, During the past season it has been newly painte papered, aad thoroughly repaired; and under the charge of a, gentlemanly proprietor, is destined to become a favorite with all who may visit Greenport, and require a good home. After partaking of a most excellent dinner, my friend and myself proceeded to engage a_ boat for a sail on the far-famed Peconic Bay, which is a sheet of water bound in by Long and Shelter Islands; and after taking its course about Green- port, shapes for the Sound. It abounds with fish, and for the purposes of pleasure sailing, it is un- surpassed. Enjoying ourselves for an hour or so, we returned, and after an agreeable lounge at the Peconic, and plucking a few roses from its capa- cious garden, we bade firewell to several tiiends who remained, and took our way to the cars, which were then prepared fora return. We had expected to be off by half-past four; but the non-arrival of the freight train from Brooklyn, for which we were obliged to wait, detained’ us uatil five, and luckily too, tor twelve of the passen- rers to Sag Harbor were left at that place by the steamboat, on account of her despatch in leaving, and they were obliged to charter a stage to come a distance of nine miles ; then cross a sinall ferry, and again take a conyeyance to Peconic Bay, which was crossed in a sail-boi and the party only arrived in time to visit the hotel! for refresh- ments, when the cars were off. The ride by moon- light was delightful ; and ata little past nine we again found ourselves at the south ferry. Stepping into Drew’s, of the Jamaica Hotel,.we saw all the passengers alight, and heard one remark of satis- faction at the trip, pass from all; and inserting in my notes this feeling on the part of myself, I then deliberately affixed certain characters, commonly called letters, which, being read, would signify the end. if ountry lass the cial THIRTIETH CONGRESS. FIRST SESSION, House of Representative: Monpay, June 19, 1848. The Speaker of the House being confined to his house by sickness, on motion of Mr. Asumes, of Massa- chusetts, Mr. Burt, of South Carolina, was unani- mously chosen to occupy the chair for to-day. THE CHICAGO CONVENTION After the transaction of husiness of itnor import- ance, Mr. Wentworth, of Illinois, presented the memorial of the Chicago eamvention, asking for the improvement of rivers and barbors ; and it was referred to the Com- mittee on Commerce. He moved that the memorial be pri ted Mr. How, of New York, expressed the hope that there would be no objection to the printing of the memorial, He did not hesitate to say that a more im portant paper had not been prosented to Congress for many years, certainly not during the present sossic Kighteen States were represented, and the delegates were men distinguished for their learning and patriot- ism. Congress are called upon to pass bills to clear out rivers and harhors. to pronote commerce, and to afford safety and security to passengers; and the country will yot be satisfied unless their repre- sentatives perform their duty in this particular. Mr. Westwortt asked for the yeas and nays on the motion to print; and, being taken, the question was Yew York and Ohio. inaptly applied to Brooxrys, June 20, 1848. Excursion to Greenport—Criwded Cars—Agreeable Company—Dusty Travelling — Scenery — Inci- dentse—Greenport—Peconic House—The Bay— Return. Agreeably to announcement, the excursion train for Greenport left the depot in Brooklyn, on Thurs day morning last, at seven o'clock. Thinking an account of the trip would not be uninteresting to the readers of the Herald, | was mindtul, before leaving, to place a note book in my pocket, and the faithfulness with which it was used can be judged from the following transerip- tions from its pages. Our train consisted of one locomotive and tender, one freight ear fitted up tor refreshments, and five passenger cars, making a very respectable show, and the cars crowded to their utmost capacity; indeed, such was the crowd, that I noticed one individual, who, seemingly to keep determined in the aflirmative—Yoas 122, nays 56 THE TANIPR Mr. Srewant, of Pennsyivania, asked leave to offer a resolution, instructing the Committee of Ways and Means to inquire into the expediency of reporting bill to increase the rovenue, by imposing an addition- al tox on luxuries of all kinds, and on such foreign ma- nufactures as are coming into ruinous competition with American labor Objection was made ; and he moved to euspend the rules, in order to introduce the resolution, sand nays were taken, and the question was in the negative—yeas 86, nays S2~-not two- docid thirds, INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGES, On motion ef Mr. Munriy the House took up the Dill regulating the interchange of books, maps, charts, ete., betwwen this and other governments.
