All rails should be rigidly inspected and subjected tosome sort of test, to ascertain t! erial of which they are eompored; a satisfactory or conclusive one, | am aware, it would be difficult, or, perbaps, impossible, at present tospply; but the ingenuity and science of our coun- irymen will devise one, when the necessity for it be- comes more generally known.

Havana, Aug. 17.—A fair demand has continued for sugar since our report of 10th inst., and as the ship- | mc nts are pretty active, while the supplies from the | interior are diminishing, the stocks ure becoming re- | duced. Under these circumstances, the prices have | experienced an advance in some respects, and we | quote as follows:—Assorted kinds, 5-8 and 6-9 riale; crdinary whites, 634 a 7 do; choice whites, 8a9do; | superior and florete yellows, 5% a 64{ do; good to fine | €o. 43, @ 54 do; browns, 8% a 434 do; cucurochos, | 2% a 3% do. There is but a moderate quantity of | Muscovados here, chiefly erdinary, value, 3'; a4 rials. | Owing to the want of vessels, there is scarcely any- | thing doing in molasses, and prices are nearly nomi- | nal, Dealeis ask 1% a2 rs, according to quality and the outpert in which the delivery is to take place. In the harbor the rates weuld be 14a 2rs. A cargo of jerked beef bas come in from New Barcelona, but is not yet sold. Of fish, the 200 casks haddock, named in our last report, turned out sweated, and told at 26 rials; no more has been imported. Some lard was im- | ported from Philadelphia ; prices arefully sustained, and the present stock is equal to 4,900 kege, being, however, almost entirely in barrels; kegs obtain $2 more than bbls.. owing to their great scarcity. Of rice, 740 casks | Carolina arrived from Charleston and Philadelphia, of which 108 from latter port sold at 11¢ rs, and 240 casks from Charleston, at 10% rs; 420 casks on hand.

In most neighborhoods that we have heard from the showers have been plentiful, but not destructive; there have also been sufficient intervals to permit the farmer to secure a fair proportion of his fodder, and the early corn is nearly ready for housing. | ‘The prospect of the cotton crop is also fair. Some of our planters have already commenced picking. The health of this eection of Florida is generally good. Married. On Thursday, 24th inst., by the Rev. Edwin F. Hat- field, James H.

Subsequently, em- ployed as a wood-eutter on the frontiers, and a long residence there, made him a sturdy, indomitable, fearle se, hard-fisted freeman.

Although never a professional office-seeker, he would, a short time since, have taken a situation as an Indian agent, preferring to live where the “ Pure skies were never stained by village smoke,”” than in the midst of a crowded settlement in the central West.

Messrs. Ritchie and Heiss are about to separate their joint ownership in the Union, for the reason, it 18 re- ported, that the latter 1s not prepared to support Cass and Butler, and 1s not willing that Mr. Ritchie’s editorials shall be considered as ex- pressing his opinions. It this be so, we commend the Major for his honesty. The gentlemen com- posing these two firms are fat printers. They never set type, however. r. Ritel was a schoolmaster before he became an editor; Mr. Heiss, it is said, was at one period of his life a sailor; Mr. Blair was a clerk in a county court in Kentucky, and a wnter for the Argus, before he removed to Washington; Mr. Hives was an oflicer of a bank in old Kentucky, and a clerk in one of the public offices in Washington, previous to his comection with the Daily Globe, which was metamorphosed into the Union, when Presi- dent Polk repudiated Blair and Rives, and forced them into a sale of their large establishment.

Mass Meeting of the Friends of Ireand—Remarns of Captain Mason--Arrest—Volunteers Sor the Buffalo Hunt—Western Telegraph, §c. The mas: meeting of the friends of Ireland to night, will be a most excited assemblage, espe cially if news should arrive in the meantime, eon- firming the rumored battle and victory. The remains of the late Captain Mason, of the United States navy, arrived at Fort McHenry yesterday. They will be escorted to-day to the cars by the Independent Blues, on their way to Richmond, Va., for interment, the deceased being an honored son of the Old Dominion. Our police have succeeded in arresting a half dozen persons, charged with participation in the not, a few nights since, at a German ball, which resulted in the death of a man named Rechner. One of the parties arrested, named Daniel Weh- meyer, has been identified as the one who struck the tatal blow. Ile has been committed to answer atcourt, .

This line is the Morse line, position to the O'Reilly line, between Philadel phia and Pittsburgh, and will convey all despatches from points north of Philadelphia as well as those from Baltimore, and all points south of Baltimore; thus doing the whole business of the West, with the exception of the local business of Philadel- phia, and may probably get a part of that. The ine will be opened to-day to Cumberland, and, in the course of two weeks, will be completed to Wheeling, having been erected 1a the most sub- stantial manner, and ina space of time almost incredibly brief.

On Monday next the democrats make their nomi- nations for city and county offices. There are eight fat berths t® be ladled out, and there are eighty candidates for the mess of soup. Of course there 1s great cliquing and plotting, and the way the wires are worked 1s a caution to Punch; all sorts of underhand work is to be expected, and of course thorough politicians will not stop at any thing deemed necessary to secure the golden prize. It 18 pretty well known that a caucus has been held by some of the candidates and their friends, by which, on the log-rolling principle, the mutual rt of the friends of each has been pledged— the consideration “ you vote for my man fee vote for yours.” Thus, it 1s said, the whole “ row” hes been parcelled out, and candidates for each office surely settled upon. This is all in advance of the meeting of the delegation, and great sition 18 getting up to the ticket, from the fact that one ot the selected candidates heretofore acted a very prominent part in the defeat of Hutchinson, the democratic ne, for ie and vg he ‘at portion of the party to the suppert of the Chige The policy of nominating much a cand date is loudly condemned, and a pretty kettle of fish 18 being prepared.
