are without any, and, not unusually a solitary 0 18 seen, the only tree upon an island, as if to guide in approaching or a place of sigual or look out for its former denizens. e surrounding waters are covered with the tall saw-grass, shooting up its straight and slender siem, to the heignt, of ten, feet above the surface. The bottom of the lake is covered with a deposite of decayed vegetable Bubstance, the accumulated product of ages, gene- rally two or three feet 1n depth, on the white sand and rock that underlies it, over the entire surface the basin. The flexible grass, bending gently to the breeze, protects the waters from its in- fluence. Lillies and other aquatic flowers, of every variety and hue, are to be seen on every side, in pleasant contrast with the pale green of tae saw-grass; and as you draw near an island, the beauty of thie scene is increased bythe rich foliage and ing flowers of the wild myrtle and the honeysuckle, and other shrubs and vines that ge- ~ nerally adorn its shores. The profound and wild solitude of the place; the solemn silence that per- vades its, “Sunless broken by the splashing of a ddle of the cunoe or light batteau, with which = an you traverse the Pahayokee, or by the voices of your compagnons de voyage, add to awakened and exci'ed curiosity, feelings border- ing on awe” No human being, civilized or sa- vage, inhabits the secludedjinterior of the glides. ‘The Seminoles reside in the region between them and the gulf. Except for the occasional flight of an eagle ora bittern, startled by the strange in- vaders of their privacy, or tor a view of the fishes clapped, some hissed, and others groaned. Gea. C. did not saya word. Soon the cries of * put em out,” came from the Cass and Butler clubs, and then commenced a fight which throughout the crowd below. Some hissed in the gallery, but were so near being pitched over to those below, that they deemed it prudent to stop, and with the others, quietly view the scene below. {t truly wasa sight; umong all the hghts at Tammany Hall, [never saw anything equal to it’ Oace or twice around the stand the combatants cooled, and General Cushing attempted to speak, but it was no use, it only set them harder at the fray. This lasted about half au hour, when the Cushingites ejected the prominent hissers, &c., out of the hall. The fight ceased, all seemed tired. General Cushing now got a fair start, and with his eloquence soon set his opponents at rest. He had but just finished an examination of General Taylor's po- sition, and that of the whig party, when loud hurrahe were heard from the ejected outsiders ; many of the:r friends and others rushed out to as- certain what the matter was. The hurrahs continued, so did General C., and his friends cheered him He finished, and Mr. Hallett was invited to address the meeti Col. Wnight was loudly calied for by the anti Cush- ingites, but was not present. | Mir. H., continued, and I wishing to know what was doing outside, went to see. I found them shouting and groaning. One would call out, ** Three cheers for General Taylor.”—* Hurrah ! hurrah! hurrah!” “ Three in the shallow waters, gliding swiftly from your boat as it goes near to them, your eye would not rest on living things abiding in this wilderness of grass waters, shrubbery, and, flowers (the sea- cows, reptiles, sand flies, musquitos, &c., of course Sapepted.) tae: General Jesup, among other distinguished of- ficers, has given his views. He says that if the Jands were reclaimed, they weuld soon be con- verted into as valuable sugar plantations as any in the world. The hammocks are extremely rich ‘The swamps are genezally peat swamps, which, if drained, would soon be converted into olive Jime, and orange plantations, and would be cul- tivated by a numerous white population, which would be interposed between the sugar plantations, cultivated by slaves, and the free blacks of the West Indies, ‘This, he thinks, in a military point of view, would be highly important, and add ee to the strength and security of the South 'o protect our valuable and growing western and south-western commerce, we must command thy communication between the Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico. This canbe done only by tortifications on the Florida Keys, combined with war steamers; to support these fortifications we require a nume- rous population in their rear. One of the effects of reclaiming the inundated lands of south Florida, will be to give us this population, whose labors will render us as independent of the West Indies, as regards most of the tropical products, as their presence will protect vs trom the influence of the policy adopted in the British islands. A gentleman from Illinois informs me that, on the basts of representation under the new consti- tution, one-third of the democrats in the legisla- ture are from Long John Wentworth’s district All but three of them are pledged to the support of the Wilmost proviso, and to elect no man to the United States Senate who is not known to be in favor of it. Mr. Wentworth, before he left Wash- ington, was a candidate for the Senate. ‘There is no mistake about this gentleman’s Wilmotism. General Shields is non-commital, relying upon his eo owder. My friend says that the contest for the high honor will be, mainly, between him and the‘long man. £95 Our citizens have been availing themselves of the recreation afforded by a campmeeting among the Methodists, about fifteen miles from Washing- ton, in Montgomery county, These kind of assem- blages should now be abandoned The idea that God can only be found in the woods, was a belief of Druidical times, before the circulation of the Scriptures. _ Mr. Ritchie has not yet demed my charge that he was made to back out from the positive asser- tion that “General Cass will veto the Wilmot proviso. Lieut. Col. Fremont was to have left the city this morning, to join his party in Missouri, to accom- pany him beyond the Rocky Mountains, to com- plete, on his own hook,,the surveys &c., com- menced by him when he was an officer of the ‘Topographical corps. Fexrx. BautmMone, Sept. 5, 1848. Emigrants for Liberra—The Steamer Isabel—An Absconding Clerk--Ratlroad Accident, &c. The Liberia packet sails to-morrow morning, from this port, for Liberia, with a large number of emigrants, most of whom are free persons, priacipally from Washington city, who have come forward voluntarily. The number going out, in- cluding passengers, will be about one hundred. The steamship Isabel left her moorings last night, for Norfolk, and moved off in gallant style. She walks through smooth water swifter than any steamer we have ever had in these waters, and will doubtless prove equally swift at sea, when loaded, as her wheels will then take a stronger hold on the water. She will be coppered in the government dock at Norfelk, and return to Balti- moreon Monday The steamer is built onan entire new model, with her cross beams on the upper deck; and it isthe genera! opinion of nautical men that she would have been unrivalled in speed had she been supplied with an engine of about 700 horse power, instead of 500 horse. However, itis the opinion of seme that her power is all sufficient. Augustus Kerner, a clerk of Mr. Charles Gher- man, lost himself, a few days since, on his return from the bank, with a $300 check in his pocket. A reward of $100 is offered for the finding of the elerk and the money.

Puapepaia, Sept. 5, 1848. Political Movements. Considerable progress was made yesterday by the various political parties in forming their tickets for the coming election. The democrats com- pleted their city and county ticket, which is as follows :-- é Clerk of the Quarter Sessions, Thomas Doyle ; Auditor, Wm. Clothier ; Coroner, Barnet Cohen ; Recorder of Deeds, Samuel C. Thompson; Pro- thonotary of the Common Pleas, John J. N Doug- trdaes; Prothonotary of the District Court, John Kline ; Clerk of the Orphans’ Court, Henry Fuller; County Commissioner, Joseph Freas. Lewis C. Levin has been nominated for re-elec- tion in the first Congressional district, by the Na- 1¥e Americans. The demecratic and Taylor and Fillmore conventions, for this district, met, but did not proceed to nominate. Col. Thomas B Florence will probably be the democratic cai didate, and most likely be elected, trom the dis- sentions among the opposing factions. The great majority of the whigs will not support Levin, and the natives generally are also dissatisfied. _ he Taylor and Fillmore men have nominated Hehbry D. Moore, in the third, and John S. Littell, in the fourth Congressional districts. The demo- crets of the third district have selected Wiiliam S. Hallowell as their candidate for Congress. The democratic candidates in the fourth district, are Change J.elngersoll, John Robbins, jr, Wm. F. oo j Hugh Clark, Thomas S. Fernon, and A. P. re. Menry 1.

Intemperate ha- s ‘ed to this rash act. Boston, Sept. 4, 1848. The Democratic Meeting—Speech of Gen. Cushing Washington by the return of M. — Tremendous Excitement,and Great Fun. j During the last tew days, we have been inform. . ed that ameeting ot the democracy of this cy cheers for that man,” cries anoiher ; which, to make a noise, would be given. ‘ Three groans for General Cushing,” says one ; they were given. “Three cheers for the git] who broke his leg,” says another. “ Hurrah! hurrah! hurrah!’ And so things went on. Presently some one comes round the corner, rolling an empty hogshead, which some one mounted, and as quickly got off. “Up stairs with it,” several cried; but poor hogshead got too harshly treated, and it collapsed. Now came empty barrels fur up the steps, but the ie had learned a lesson; they managed to knock into pieces the barrels. Here the speaker inside fimshed. The resolutions were put, and carried almost unanimously; three dissenting. ‘* Look out for Cushing!” was the general cry ; they crowded around the door, and did look cut, until the lights were put out, and the doors fastened, when they found “the bird had flown.” “ Three cheers for Cass,” shouted one ; those of the meeting had dispersed to their homes, and the response was but taintly given. ‘ Three cheers for Van Buren and Adams,” shouted another; and they “went it with arush.” So you may guess who the anti Cushingites were—not demo- crats. All ended silently, and I believe without any serious injury being done. Haroup. Sporting Correspondence. Loc ‘Hous ox tHe Lert Forx or THE Avenue, Essex County, Aug. 26, 1848. Yesterday we had a capital time. It was de- cided that we should start out early, make the rounds and bring home a fat buck ordce, in season for dinner. Knowing that all signs failin dry weather, and that in consequence we might come home empty handed, I arranged, after some per- suasion, for Jeremiah to stay behjnd and course up and down the little brook whjch “hops, skips and jumps” along, not a stone’s tlfrow from our domicil, and which we had not yet considered worthy a piscatorial visit. At day break we set out, andjdividing into two parties of three each; we went on our several ‘Ways, agreeing to bring up at the cabin about noon. Now be it known, that in vicinity of our hu that is, within two or three on dre several anal ponds, averaging some two sin length, and mes half a mile in breadth, where at cer- tain hours of the day the “retpideer’’” come to slake their thirst and browse upon the yerdure around the shore—sometimeés they come in little companies of six or eight, sometimes in couples, sometimes ‘‘solitary and alone.” In short, they arrange these matters very much as they please, in all which, the “melancholy Jacques” would doubt- less find ample room to moralise. i Well, one party was to take the ‘east pond,” and the other the “north pond.” Before setting out, 1 took a peep into the kennel to see that the dogs were well secured, as they would be very sure to spoil the kind of sport we were seeking, should they break away. Old Hectog, a staunch veteran hound, cast upen me an imploring look as 1 came up, which seemed to say: “ Pray, Mr. Shandy, take me along; I see you intend to go with- out me, but Tenenhey ae will miss it if you do.” Ishook my head at th@old fellow, as muci as to say, ‘it can’t be helped this time,” and started off. Israel, Abraham, and myself laid our course due east; end despising as the **day of small things,” several good chances at partridges, pigeons, and black squirrels, we proceeded to the valley. Now for a iecord of lack—what kind of luck, you shall find in the sequel. As we were proceeding care- lessly along—quite too carelessly tor our reputa- tion as sportsmen—jump! starts a deer over the hill yonder—away goes another and another! jump! jump! quick—there are three or four more ! ‘What huntsman who has not felt at certain times, when taken by surprise, a certain clumsiness in “making ready?” We wereall aback—Abrahayn, the youngest of our entire company, made out to fire; but he might as well have saved his shot. The herd rapidly descended the valley, and we saw them no more. This little incident lowered our spirits considerably, but it served to put us on our guard; we saw nothing worth remarking until we came to the pond. There, the first object that met our view, was a fine doe standing near the water’s edge, on the opposite side. Abraham, youngster as he was, prepared to blaze away at once; but fisrael interfered, declaring that it was 120 rods across, and, of course, nothing but a waste-| of ammunition to shoot, besides losing the game into the bargain, and that he could easily steal round and get within fair distance; but Abraham begged so hard to try his chance that we finally consented. Making an allowance for the great distance by elevating his piece, he let drive. It was really a beauuful shot. The ball struck in the water, apparently not a foot from the animal, spattering her with the fe so suddenly disturbed. the doe started up, looked this way and that, shook her tail, but did not run off. * Now is our tme,” said Israel; ‘come with me, Abraham; please to stay where you are, Mr. Shandy, so as to take the critter if she comes by you, and we will have her re Off they started.” To tell the plain truth, 1 egan to watch the poor animal with something like a nervous apprehension as she continued to browse up and down, unconscious of the danger thatthreatened her. In a few minutes, however, she stopped and seemed to listen. Sud- denly, she jumped to the left, away from the water, towards the mountains; at the same time the sharp report of a rifle told the cause of her alarm, and once more Abraham had lost his chance. Soon the two came back wn eye! Israel being especially provoked that the deer should have been scared by the first shot. As lama truthful historian, I must fain confess that the morning wore away, and noon came and found us still ‘unlucky. Everything went against us. We saw deer enough, but not within shot; and the only good chance we had, we lost by a cap missing fire. We now had nothing to do but shoulder our pieces and trudge home, decidedly ashamed to meet the restof the company, who, doubtless, were already stomach-deep in the me- Tits of venison steak. Back we went; strange to say, the other party were still oat, but Jeremiah had not been idle. He had caught nearly two hundred smail trout, just fit tor the pan—and these were dressed and ready for the fire. Old Hector gave me a knowing look as leame in, as much as to say, “Itold you so,” and the other hounds whined out their condolence. Presently Eli and his two comrades came up; but—no deer. They had many stories to tell ot several that bad actually been shot, but which, somehow, could not be found, and so forth and so on; but we only laughed the louder, and they gave in. We soon sat down to dinner--and such a din- ner—with such an appetite! Would that you— or denizen of Gotham—could be blessed with oth. Jeremiah was the hero of the ae lcer- tainly ranked next¢for having suggested that he bef stay behind... Of thejtwo hundred trout, not a vestige remained (for they were small enough to devour bones and all), and what we did after din- ner _I will tell you in my next. Suanpy. From Crmvanva.—The St. Lows Organ pub” lishes the annexed extract of a letter from Chihu- ahua, under date of May 17:— “Gen.

The liealth of the troo)s is good—whiskey and other wickedness are doing their usual work, and many officers and soldiers, are on the sick list. Many (officers and soldiers) will leave this country entirely different men than when they entered it, ruined in health, in morals and almost everything that make the character of a good citizen in the United States.

The public bodies ure introduc- ing ameliorations everywhere, under the iadus- trious adm ration of Herrera. Lately, a plan of prison discipline was subniitted to the Chamber of Deputies, by the Minister of the Interior, in which a lively desire 18 expressed to imitate the penitentiary system in our own country. It forms & very remarkable feature in the new order of things which now reigns in Mexico, evincing very plainly that there is some recuperative power, or wish for recuperative power, in the character of the people. The Monitor Republicano announces that an offi- cial notice, was lately published in the Guatemala Gazette, giving an account of a triumph achieved over the Indian insurrectionists in Gavia. The same periodical, in speaking of late events in Chiapas, states that more is to be feared from the collision of parties in that state, than in the war of castes. Intelligence has reached the capital of the final evacuation of the city of Chihuahua by the Ameri- can troops. It took place on the 18th ult. The Fo del Comercio, of the 10th, reminds the people that on the day preceding, just one twelve- month ago, the American forces took up a position in front of the city, when so much enthusiasm was exhibited by the National Guard, and the citizens in general, to hasten to its defence. All was, how- ever, useless, and the hopes of victory were buned in ruincus deteat. That journal significantly re- marks that the recollection should not tade from their minds ; it deems it a duty to freshen their memory, a8 & useful lesson. | The Arco Irs, of the 15th inst , states that smug- gling has already commenced on various parts of the coast, and that it 1s impossible to prevent it for the want of gun-boats, as a coast-guard. The at- tention of the government is earnestly called to the want of some naval force. The governors of ull the States of the Republic have sent congratulations to the President, on the happy issue of Bustamente’s operations against Paredes. F A remarkable mortality has lately prevailed among the élite of the society in Mexico ; no less than five generals have deceased, among whom is Gen. Don Gabriel Valencia, Tranquility will soon be re-established in Mazatlan. Gen. Anaya has united under his command a sufficient force to crush the insurgents instantly. The official organ at Monterey announces th:t a party of Americans, from Laredo, had commit. ted a several robberies and murders in the State of New Leon. They had obtained a booty of $41,000 in sacking the towns of Sabinas and Aldamas. Complaint was made to the commandant at Lare- do, but he declared his inability to apprehend the robbers, and intended to lay a statement of the facts before the authorities at Bexar and Camargo. The freebooters had returned to Laredo. Information had reached the government that Paredes has taken refuge among the Indians in Sierra Gorda. He is denounced by the Momtor as now trying to raise up a war of castes. The Arco Iris, in remarking on the complete restoration ef order at Vera Cruz, since the depar- ture of our troops, acknowledges, that with our men has totally disappeared that activity of traffic which existed there during the occupation. From time to time, at the capital, the few ene- mies that the government has, endeavor to excite the fears of the population, by sinister reports. First, 1t was an insurrection in Gascrarcone then, that Santa Anna had disembarked at Vera Cruz} at another time, that he was en route for Mazatlan, to jom the insurgents there. Weak inventions a, to stagger the present vigorous administra- ion. . The Senate had suspended its sittings for a while, in Consequence of a want of a quorum.

It isnot worth while to fies the compla- cency with which the editor dwells on the picture.

INTELLIGENCE FROM Santa Fg.—An express ar- rived at this place on Wednesday last, direct from Santa Fe. It was brought by Mr. Estes and another individual, who were twenty-five days in making the trip, having left Santa Fe on the 21st ultimo. They bring little news; Gen. Price and his com- mand were but a short distance below Santa Fe, on their return from Chihuahva. Lieut. Royall had arrived with his command. Lieut. Colonel Gilpin came in with the express, and has, we un- derstand, gone down the river. His battalion remains at Fort Mann.—Weston (Mo.) Journal, Aug. 19. A gentleman who arrived in the Sacramento, on Sunday, informs us that on his way in from New Mexico, he met over one thousand wagons in different trains, bound for Santa Fe, El Paso, sand Chihuahua. Nearly four hundred belonged to government, and were laden with supplies for the troops in that region; the balance to traders, and were filled with merchandise for the different points named. But a few days before our in- formant left Chihuahua, a train of two hundred and fifty arrived from the States, and a large train, bound out, were not met, in consequence of its having taken the Bent’s Fort route. ‘The past is said to have been a very profitable season. A large ameunt of goods has heen taken into the country and sold at high prices, but it is thought that the increage in number and the unusual quan- tity of merchandise now on the way thither, will make it, to thoee last in, something of a hazardous speculation.— St. Louis Republican, Aug. 30. Texrimie Storm in Mississipr1.—The Natchez Free Trader of the 22d ult. says :— This section of the country was visited on Friday night last by one of the most violent rain and wind storms we have experienced for many years. The rain fell in torrents from dark until daylight, and the wind blew a pale from southeast the whole time. The crops of, cotton have been materially damaged in every direction, Whole fields of it have been en- tirely prostrated, much broken and twisted off, vast uantities of bolls and forms thrashed off, and all the open cotton stained and damaged. One gen- tleman whom we met yesterday considers his loss one-fifth his entire crop. As tar up and down the river as we have heard, and out on Tensas, the storm has been equally as disastrous as in our im- mediate Viper 4 The Baton Be Advocate of the 23d has the following paragraph on this storm :— “A very severe storm of wind and rain was ex- perienced in this region, on Thursday night and Friday morning last, doing, as we learn, consi- derabfe injury to some of the cane and other crops. The quantity of rain that fell during the storm, according to the meteorological records at the Barracks, reached the almost incredible and un- recedented measurement of five inches and a half! We are informed by Dr: B. F. Smith, the dentist, who arrived here on Monday, from the Plains, that the damage done to the cotton crops in that oily. and near Port Hudson, will be equal to a loss of one-fourth—some think two-thirds—of the eotire crop. Thompson’s Creek and the other streams above here were two feet higher than they pits ever been known to be by ‘the oldest inha- tant.’ ” Wriniwinp at Mapex, Mass.—Dunng the storm yesterday forenoon, in East Malden, a whirlwind blew down the shop of Mr. Fernald, morocco dreseer, scattering the timbers in every disection. Some were thrown with such force as to penetrate through the side of a house some forty feet distant. Another house in the vicinity, occupied by a Mr. Simmons, was moved some nine or ten inches from the sills. In the neigh- borhood, many sheds were overturned, and trees uprooted and thrown across the road; many win- dows were broken. One man at work at Mr. Fernald’s, had his collar bone broken. ‘The wind was from the 8.E. to N.W., and the track of the whirlwind w; apparently about forty feet wide, and some hi long-—Boston Maul, Sept. 2 Comma orn’s Dav.—A case was recently dec in the ola Court, Chief Jus- tice Shaw .presiding,in whieh the validity ot the statute prohibiting secular business on the Lord’s Day was fully recognised.

Greely, fora viola- tion of a bond not to run a bread cart, on his own account orfor any other persen except the plaintiff, over # certain route, fora epecified length of time. Greely pleaded that though the bond was dated on # week day, 1t was in fact made and signed on the Lord’s Day, between sunrise and sunset; and not being » work of necersity, charity, or merey, was Ha oy Mie Le me Py act, and re wily noll and void, Cluef Justice Shaw de- cided that the bond in this case was void, because made at a time when such an act could not legally done, and gave Fe al Fy pein for the defendant.—Boston ATE Renconrre.—We copy the following } from the Pauldeng (Muss.) Clarion, of the 19th ult:—Mr. H. E. Raney returned home from his act Daniel Stuckey, on the 124 inst. He rings intelligence of the Kulitg of his brother-in- law and Ben) Stuckey, 10 a recent attempt to take the latter individual “Jt appears that Mr. Raney, the sheriff of Lauderdale, his dapaty, and his bro- ther-in-law, traced Stuckey to the interior of Texas, where himselt and his son hod quietly settled. At the tume ol their arrival in the neigh- borhood, Daniel Stuckey was abyent some sixty miles from home; and the party at once took steps for the arrest of his son. This was done by ea- fone one of the neighbors to decoy him from his jouse, under the pretence of takinga hunt In ac- cordance with this agreement, Raney and his part were concealed in the house of the neighbor allud- ed to, when Benjamin Stuckey came up. Young Stuckey took his seat upon the step of the gallery, after having arrived, and leaned his gua beside him against the house. Mr. Raney, who had been watching his movements, now cautiously ap- proached behind him, and succeeded in gettin possresion of the gun. This drew the attention of Stuckey, and he at once comprehended hus situa- tion, The deputy sheriff, Herbert Ranev, and his brother-in-law, were present in the gallery, with each a loaded gun presented; but Stuckey, nothing daunted by the hry against him, drew a bowie- knife and rushed Sram assailagts. In this cri- sig, the guns in the hands of the deputy sheriff and his companion missed fire, and the combat, for a moment, was now hand to savin ap ssing fiercely upon Mr. R. for the eter! of his gua and that gentleman being unable to defend himself from having two firelocks in his hand, was com- pelled to relinquish one, in order to use the other. A shot from 4 pistol in the hands of the brother-in- law of Mr. R., at this juncture, took effect upon Stuckey, who by this time had recovered his gua, and immediately returned the fire, mortally wound- ing his antagonist. Stuckey now again turned upon Sheriff Raney—but that gentleman by this time was prepared, and as the desperate man leap- ed forward with his bowie-knife, discharged the whole contents of his gun into his breast. This ended the struggle. Stuckey lingered about an hour and died, with loud imprecations upon his lips, and the unfortunate brother-in-law, whose name we could not learn, expired also in about four hours The deputy shenff was left to bury the dead, whilst William Raney and four others, started in pursuit of Daniel Stuel ua This 1s the last account we have from him. Herbert Raney, after the burial of his brother-in-law and Benjamin Stuckey, returned home and is now in Lauderdale He was severely wounded in the hand by the Ramie knife of Stuckey, during the rencontre above related. Tue Town or Fregrort, Ini1vors.—I{t 18 a source of great pleasure to witness the thriving prospects of Freeport. It is about one year since we first came into this place, and since that time, the town seems to have increased nearly one half in size and business. From the time we first came here, to the firet of November, there will have been put up in Freeport, over one hundred buildings, many of which are good and substantial, giving our town a city-like appearance. We say to those whohave capital to invest in a new town, come and try your fortunesin Freeport. A sufficient capital could not be better invested in the Western States, than by erecting an iron foundry here. The county must now contain a population of near 12,000 seuls, which is increasing at the rate of about 30 per cent, with a hike ratio in counties adjoining. Still, our farmers and mechanics have to get all their cast- age &c., at Chicago, a distance of 110 miles. e have water power in any quantity, which can be easily obtamed for the above, or any other ob- ject, en the best terms.

Anotuer Factory Srorragr.—The proprietors of the barre woollen factory in Ware village are stopping their looms, as we were informed when in that place a few days since. They have deter- mined to shut down as soon as they have worked up the raw material now on hand. ‘Give us,” said one of the proprietors, “the tariff of 1842, and we will start every machine again in six weeks.”—Barre Patriot. ‘We were informed on Saturday evening, by one of the firm of Jenks & Thomas, that their large bale-rope end bagging manufactory had been closed, owing to the disproportion in the prices of hemp, and the manufactured articles, which makes the carrying on’ of that establishment a losing business. This 1s the largest factory in the city. Last year 150 hands were cniged, ine it; but this season there have been only about 130, who are now thrown out of employment.—St. Kouis Union. Awrrt Murper.—The Centrai Georgian of Aug. 29, says that on the 16th instant, a negro boy, the property of Matthew Parker, about the age sixteen, entered the house of his master, and as- saultéd James L. Taylor, fracturing his skull with" anaxe. He then struck his mistress, andfractured her skull also ; both were asleep at the The only motive for the deed was that he had been threatened with a whipping, The boy was ar- rested, tried, and committed fr trial next week. Taylor lived a day and mght only. Mrs. P. had been trepanned, and was alive on the 20th inst. The villain has confessed the murder, and will, doubtless, expiate his guilt upon the gallows. Suppen Deatru.—A young man, named James C. Travers, late of New York city, died at the re- sidence of Mr. Brown, in this city, on Saturday morning, at four o’clock. On Friday, he was engaged all day in house painting, and retired at 8 o'clock, 1m his usual health, was, heard to groan about three o’clock, an 8 goon dis- covered to be rapidly bleeding at the langs:* Every attention was shown him which kindness and medical skill could suggest, but without avail. We understand he was formerly a clerk in the office of the New York Mirror, and that he has a brother still residing in New York, and another at Yonkers.— Syracuse Journal. Turee Lives Savep.—On Sunday last, a party of young men, clerks in Boston post office, who were on a fishing excursion, saw a sail boat cap- size in Broad Sound. They immediately steered for the boat, and succeeded in rescuing tee ‘oung men, who were hanging to its bottom. hen they reached them they were almost ex- hausted, and could not have sustained themselves many minutes longer. The names of the gentle- men who thus saved the lives of three fellow be- ings, are John Lewis, ene. Bolles, James Mills, Charles H. Melcher and Benjamin B. Hersey.— Boston Transcript, September 4. Fink iv Cornine, N. Y.—Between the hours of one and two o'clock, on Mondy morning last, the new steam factory in this village, owned by J. M. Mallory and I. Lyon, was discovered to be on fire, and before assistance could be rendered, it was burned to the ground. The factory has only been in operation a few days, and cost about $8,000. The boiler and some portion of the engine, to- ether with a quantity of iron bolts, will be saved leaving the actual loss about $6000.—-Corning (N. Y.) Journal. Fire in tHE Woops on Lone Istanp.—On Fri- day last, a fire broke out at one of the coal pits near Cook’s public house at Islip, which has prov- ed very destructive. It has been confined to the forest, spreading over a space of ten miles long and five wide, extending in an easterly direction from whence it commenced. An immense quantity ot valuable wood has been destroyed, and up to last Monday evening, when our informant left, the fire wes still raging. Fire at Aveusta.—At nine o’clock last night, an Augusta correspondent informs us that the warehouse of Andrews & Spears was destroyed by fire in that city, and six hundred bales of cot- ton burnt. The fire commenced at noon, The loss, which falls probably on a number of persons, some planters, will probably reach $20,000, in- glnging the warehouse shed.—Charleston Courier, Tur Rev.

To tne Eprror or Tue Hikuauo— Sin:—To the numerous aud oftentimes denun- ciatory strictures upon my conduct as a public man, which find their way into the newspapers of the country, I have been in general, altogether 1a- diflerent, and in all cases heretotore, [have been absolutely silent. Nor should I vary from my ordi- nary course upon the present occasion, but that it is icured by others, whose counsels I greatly re- spect, that silence On my. part might be construed into a tacitacquiegcence in certain misrepresenta- tions, which, if effectual, might by possibility do mote or less injury toa cause to which my life has been devoted. I find myself charged’ with having declared, during the last hours of the sea- sion of the United States Senate, that Cass and Butler, m consequence of the conduct of some of their Northern friends in Congress upon the Ore- on question, would lose the whole vote ot the Southern States inthe approaching Presidential election. Now this is not only wholly without toun- dation, but 1s moet mdiculously false. What I did say, 1 substance, was this: It will be borne in mind, that the Oregon bill had been returned to us from the House with «ur amendments to it stricken out, There was reason to believe, had a commit- tee of conterence been allowed us, in accordaace with weil-known legislative usages, that a satis- factory compromise of all the matiers in contro- verry could yet have been effected. Various facts were stated by myself and others,’ showing, as I think, conclusively, that a compromise might still have been attained through a committee of con- ference. The Senator from Illinois, (Mr. Doug- Jass,) who had principal charge of the Oregon bill, had consented to. a committee of conference, and had even urged it upon the Senate with his own characteristic manliness and ability. Other distinguished democratic Senators trom the Noth were more than wiiling to try the experiment of a committee of conference, Under such circum- stances, the Senator from Missouri, (Mr. Benton,) insisted'upon his mction to recede frum our amend- ments; which, taking precedence of the motion to reter the subject to a committee of conference, cut off, if suecesstul, ull hope of present compromise. We had struggled for a committee of conference during the ole of Saturday night. Suaday morning had arrived, when | took occasion, in the course of a speech running through some fifteen or twenty minutes, to warn certain senators against the possible consequences of their rigorously coer- cive course, I urged upon them that their conduct was likely lo be bil ae as evincing asettled hos- tility and contempt for the South and southern men, I went so far even as to Giines a fear that their in- diecretion and seeming liberality might have the effect of weakening our presidentiol ticket in some quarters ef the South, or might at least impose upon its southern advocates a heavy and oppres- sive burdén of explanation. I besought them ear- nestly yet to allow a committee of conference, and thus place our ticket beyond the reach of misre- presentation and injury; avowing, all the while, that I knew Gen. Cass to be thoroughly sound on the Wilmot proviso question, and that [ should be the last man in the Union to forsake him. When Sunday had passed away, and Monday morning was in progress, the Senate was again in session. Southern men had reflected well upon all that had occurred, Southern democrats had conferred to- gether, They bore im mind that northern demo- crats, in both houses of Congress, had been sus- taining the constitutional rights of the South, and been laboring to secure our safety, when northern whigs, toa man, had proved hostile, and even a few Southern men had shown themselves unmind- ful or regardless of Southern interests. They re- collected that explicit assurance had been given us by the senator trom Jllinois, (Mr. Douglas,) with his own characteristic frankness, that he and his friends would again unite with southern men next winter, as they had done already in the ses- sion of Congress now closed, to bring about such a compromise as to the territoriesof New Mexico and California, as tnat for which we had been contending. We knew that Dickinson, and Douglas, and Hannegan, and Bright, and Stur- geon, and Cameron, and other geod and true de- mocrats from the free States of the North, in both houses of Congress, would still be with us. We resolved to trust to the. assurances of our brethren who have already, in many fierce encounters, proved themselves worthy of confidence; and, ac- cordingly, when on Monday morning the Senate again assembled at nine o’clock, and a motion was mude to epcend the 17th joint rule ot the ¢wo houseg, which prohibits the presentation of a bill or joint reeolution to the President for his sprue tion on the last day of the session, without the sus- pension of which rule the Oregon bill could | not he become a law; when, as Mr. Calhoun ‘em- phatically observed, the ill stood defeated accord- ing to parliamentary rules; when all acknowleged that it was completely at the mercy of the South, we resolved, on full consultation, and on the as- surances above mentioned, to spare it; and, after an attempt or two to amend the resolution, | was authorised to rise in my place and announce that all further opposition would be relinquished; and thus the Oregon bill did become a law. This is the sum and substance of what occurred on that interesting occasioa. If this seems to indicate an inclination on my part to abandon our nominees, what will be thought of my hastening to the heart of Virginia, on the Monday might succeeding, fa- tigued as 1 was with such labors as few men living have vg undergone, and addressing a large con- course of citizens, in my native county of Fauquier, on the Wednesday atter, in support of our noble ticket? If any are disposed to conjecture that the Jast scenes in the Senate augur the enfecblement of our ticket 1n the South, let me assure them that never have I seen such signs of concord and bro- therly love among democrats from the North, South, East, and West,(with very slight exceptions indeed,) as those same closing scenes unfolded. Imay go further, and declare, (as 1 did by their express authority, on last Wednesday, in Vir- ginia,) that distinguished democratic leaders rom the South, heretofore lukewarm or hostile to our ticket, encouraged by the assurances given that Northern democrats will hereafter concur and co-operate with southern democrats and Southern whigs, 1n bringing about a fair and equitable compromise of the territorial question, will now support our nominees cordially, actively, and to the end. 1 could go yet further, and state what I personally know to be actively truae—that Southern whigs, as leading and influential men as any in the whole South, seeing the united and unanimous opposition of northern whigs in Con- gress, to the constitntional rights of the South— seeing the extraordinary indications now dis- closing themselves, of a general disposition among the whigs of the North to fraternize with the barnburners,in support of Van Buren and Adams —pcrceiving, as all discerning men must now at last percelve, that Generai Taylor has really no strength anywhere, and that the only hope of de- feating the abolition ticket et Buffalo, and thus eecuring the safety of the South, and the integrity of the Union, lies in the success of the democratic ticket, have not hesitated to avow a strong doubt whether it is not their duty, as true patriots and southern men, to come with all their weight and influence’ to the support of Cass and Butler, I Elisha W, Pratt has been appointed Postmaster at Ontario, in place of Charles P.

Captain Higgins stopped at Kline on his outward passage, to sell his cargo, w! ich he was unable to do, in consequence of the unsettled state of the island. ‘The negroes had the complete control of affairs, but had committed no new out- rages.
