Nothing else is talked about. Democrats, whigs, free soil men, hunkers, barnburners, abolitionists—all, all, are engrossed by the wonderful intelligence. The real E] Dorado has at length been discovered, and hereafter let not cynics doubt that such a place exists. The Union, ever ready to make political eapital, triumphantly says, “there Messrs. Web- ater, Bell, and Co., there 1s the country you sneer_ ingly declared was not worth having! Why, it 18 a solid mass of gold, which, if worked properly, would pay all the expenses of the late war in a fortnight! The great difficulty is, that there is no way of keeping the geld, as every vessel, or box, which might answer to stow it away, 1s of more value than even the gold itself. This cer- tainly is measurably a drawback, but Yankee ingenuity will doubtless get over it. What a pity Congress 1s not now in session. If it was, and Whitney was to press his railroad scheme, it would be sure to pass, and, once built, what loads of passengers would be sure to be booked for the “great West,” which now means California. | ow, for our part, we do not know what to think of this gold story. It looks marvellously like a be ngevaey to duce a rapid emigration ; but then agai, it is certified by the Amercan Alcalde, at Monterey, and the American Al- calde is a very proper man, having once been a Presbyterian preacher, and, of course, a Presbyterian preacher would not tell a falsehood. it must be true. Gold, hereafter, will not be worth halt as much as paper. Here is an end at once to “old Bullion’s” triumph in the currency. We can ady see the old United States Bank, Phenix- ng from its ashes and disseminating 1ts “payer regs” throughout the eountry, at a premium. It is said that one of the proprietors of the Union, who hes lately invested a considerable sum ina Virgina gold mine, has already sold out, and is preparing to start for California, where the precious metal can be got by buckets tull, instead of—as in the Virginia mine—merely by a spade full at a tim t may all be true, or it may turn out to be a second diamond mine story; we should be sorry, at this enhghtened age, to declare our disbelief in anything—except, indeed, the disinterested mo- tives of politicians, or that the barnburners in the New York Custom House feel particularly at ease just now. By the way, the mention of barnburners re- minds us of the modus operand: which the New York Democratic Association has put in force, to find out the faithful in the Custom House. A member of this committee 1s given a section of the Custom House to inspect, and he forthwith enters the names of all the clerks doing duty therein, in a small book, and opposite each name is entered a figure, varying from5 up to10. The clerks are there waited upon by this gentleman, and blandly told that they are rated for so much— five or ten dollars, as the case may be—which is to be applied to the furtherance of the good cause of democracy. The clerk stares, and either hands over the money, or refuses, onthe ground that he 1s not a politician, and, at all events, pays as large a tax already as he can well afford. In case the democratic committee gentleman meets with a refusal, he at once brands the delinquent as a barnburner, and a black mark is affixed to his name. Now, the New York democrats are, after all, mere plagiarists. The course they are pur- suing now, has, for years, prevailed in Vashing- ton. Every clerk under government is perti- naciously solicited to become a member of the Jackson Hall Association, and to subscribe to its funds; and, it he refuses, he becomes a marked man. Such a procedure 18 truly disgracetul, but it is countenanced by the powers that be; and the result is, that the departments are filled, with a tew exceptions, with mere hang- ers-on—men_ chosen, not because of their fit- ness or ability, but because they become will- ing tools, who receive their salary with the understanding that all their influence—and every person possesses either more or less—shall be used to keep in power those who pay them. There are an abundance of clerks in each of the departments, to get through all the duties; and yet constant complaints are being made by the heads that the force ia not strong enough. The solution of this difficulty 1s plam. Men who receive government sop as a reward for their political services, think they bavefdone enough, and, as a consequence, they become lazy drones, throwing all the work on their industrious fellows. It is humiliating to see this eternal scramble for office, especially in a country like this is, where any man, if he 1s industrious, can soon become in- dependent. But office 1s looked upon as the great goal for which every lazy scamp in the Unicn strives, and being so, it is used as the reward for all sorts or dirty work and corruption. Omgca. Baxiimore, Sept. 20, 1848. Return of the San Pedro Expeditton—The Recent Mail Robbery—Grand Lodge 1. 0. of 0. F. The schooner Cecil, Captain Benny, arrived here yesterday, from the wreck of the San Pedro man-of-war, sunk an age ago in the Spanish Main, where she has been for several months engaged in rescuing treasures from the sunken vessel. She brought but about $5,500 in Spanish dollars, her opera- tions having been checked by the Venezulian war. ‘This is the fifth expedition to the wreck by the San Pedro company, who have recovered about $80,000, not more than sufficient, I anticipate, to defray all ex- peni nd pay to the Spanish government the per centage required for the privilege. The operations of young Fenton, arrested at Win- chester, Va. last week, on a charge of robbing letters, are supposed to have been very extenrive, a consider- able portion, having been abstracted from letters des- tined for New York. Some $2,400 in money, and about $400 in half notes, were found in his possession, and the Post Master General has adopted the following rule in regard to its distribution :— “All the moneys will be retained until after Fenton has had his trial, which is expected to come off at Staunton, in October next. After this trial, such parts of the money as are clearly identified, will be delivered ‘to the claimants appearing to be the rightful owners Such parte as are not thus identified, will be still fur- ther retained, until there is good reason to suppose that all probable claims have come in, when it will be distributed (pro rata, if neediul,) among euch claim- ante as may hee, to have been losers by Fenton’ malfeasance. But, in all cases, proof of mailing will be required; which ought to consist either of the cer- tificate of the postmaster at the mailing office, or of the affidavit of some disinterested ang cognizant of the fact. If, however, neither of these kinds of proof is attainable, the affidavit of the sender, accompanied by testimonials as to moral character, will be ith of Baltimore continues steadily to im- number of deatbs last week having been 71, whilst a few weeks since, they reached 130.

Death from Hydrophobia— Meet ing of the American Scientific Association—Surcide, &c. The case of hydrophobia, at the Hospital, ter- minated fatally last evening, the patient expiring in a violent paroxysm, rendering him a perfee maniac. The scene is said to have been a most horrid one.

This large body of troops from Mexico and Jef- ferson Barracks, arrived in our city, in an extra train of cars, about 6 o’clock Saturday afternoon. They are all en route for California, under the com- mand of Brevet Brig. General Riely. The condi- tion of the most of the privates is miserable.— Theytlard over here, and glept in the railroad cars; and the officers, among whom were Lieutenant Sweeny and Major Sewell, took up their head- quarters at Bagg’shotel. Last night they proceed- ed to Albany in an extra train of twenty-four cars, and no doubt, ere’ this, they have reached your city. ‘An elopement which took place in this city last (Sunday) evening, created quite an excitement. It appears a young, interesting and beautiful lady, named Miss K., had won the hearts of two gentle- men, both of whom were desperately in love with her. One of the gents, Mr. H , isa particular favorite of the oung lady’s ints who had given him their consent io e Miss K. his bride; but beadd pv gpm the other ‘oung gentleman, (Mr. N.,) agreed to elope with him. This’MEN. is from’ Mon omery county, and of wealthy relatives. Through the assistance of another you! dy, the plan to leave her parents was all ar- Tanged. At about 6 o'clock, one of the lovers, Mr. H., called at the house, and was received by the young lady and family as usual. Soon after, Mr, N. arrived at the appointed epot, with an elegant carriage. About 7 o'clock Miss K. made an excuse to 5° in another room for a few moments, when she slipped out the back door, and soon met her real lover and the young lady ; in a few seconds, they were all seated in the barouche, and started for a small village a few miles south of this city ; but, on their arrival there, they could not find any legal person to tie the hymencal knot, to they returned to this city, to one of our best hoiels ; but, getting quite late, they met with the same disappointment as at the former place. The party then went to » particular acquaintance of Miss K.’s, to remain till morning ; and, not having retired to bed, about one o'clock at ea Ay beg Phe aroused b; the arrival of some officers, who had been put on trac! of the young lady by her father; they fled, and went to another house, and there remained until the carriage was cent for, and the officers lost all traces of them. About 2 o'clock, the carriage came and conveyed the party to Whitestown, about four miles fro this city, ich t intended to have been joined together, t! morning. The services of police officer Barnes were obtained, who traced out the whereabouts of the couple, and started to bring them back. When officer B. arrived at Whitestown, the young intended bride was im- mediately secreted ina room, but through the per- severance of Barnes, he obtaired access to the room, andafter some conversation{sbe agreed to go hom to the whole party started for home, and Miss K. wi restored te the embraces of her anxious parents, The whole of this affair is a funny and romantic scene, and very seldomftakesfplace in ourjquiet city. Iunder- nd the desperate lover, Mr. N.. intends to make nother attempt to elope again with his intended, Miss ha consequently a close watch will be kept over the latter. ‘The Albany and Buffalo Railroad Companies have at last reduced the fare from $12 50 down to $9 75, to take effect on the lst January next. RADIATOR. Cotumsus, (Ohio,) Sept. 18, 1848. Col. Weller Traversing the State—Hon. William Allen— Opposition to his Re-Election—Sketch of his Speech—The Democratic Party hope to carry the State—Ohio to Decide the Election of Presi- dent. Yesterday, the democracy held a county meet- ing in this city, being the day fixed by Col. Weller, the neminee for Governor, when he would ad- dress bis friends in this county, in the order of his appointments throughout the State, The turn-out of the people was respectable in numbers, though evidently not unusually large. Even the States- man admits its disappointment in this respect, in saying, what no one had previously heard of, that owing to Col. Weller having been suddenly called back to Butler, by information from his family, received by telegraph, while in Belmont Co., many, the Statesman supposes, did not attend on yester- day, from an apprehension that the Colonel would not be here. This apology, however, I take it, rather depreciates the estimation the democracy haye of their whilome “tall young Senator,” Hon. Wilham Allen, for his name, too, was conspicu ously announced in the bills, And Iam inclined to believe that there 1s, to the mind of Mr. Allien, at least, “more truth than poetry” in the incident. Mr. Allen has not been active <* his labors for the party, since his re- electionts the Senate, in 1842, Roving allowed. the import: }1election of ’44, and the election of *46, as wel! asthe intermediate elections for State Legislature, to pass by, without scarcely any aid from him beyond the limits of his own county. His second term, however, is drawing to a close, and this, it is said, even among the democrats, brings him out on the stump to tell the “dear people” how much he loves them, and how disin- terestedly he is willing to serve them another six years! There are other laborers in the party, that are willing to serve in his place; and the leaders here at the capitol are consenting that he should be superseded; and hence, his proffered attendance here on the same day with Col. Weller, was not hailed with any particular satisfaetion, nor any ains taken to draw a crowd on his account. From this may be inferred, that Mr. Allen’s re- turn to the Senate will not alone depend upon the election of a democratic majority to the legisla- ture, in October, but also, afterwards, upon his success in running the gauntlet of what is here called the “tin-pan”—namely, the democratic caucus. ; But of the eae Col. Weller was here, and Senator Allen wes here, and both addressed the people. Col. Weller evidently relies much for support on his ‘‘ services” in the Mexiean war; consequently, he led off in defence of the war, an: in defence of those who sustained the warat home and in the field, against those who not only op- posed it, but gave encouragement to the enemy by their unpatriotic speeches. He, however, also de- fined bis position on the various questions before the people, taking the Baltimore platform, and the platform of the sth January State Convention, for us guide; and, alter defending General Cass against some of the charges brought against him, avowed his intention to vote for him. Senator Allen, in a speech of much ability, and ‘with his usual eloquence and stentorian emphasis, reviewed the character, the claims, and the politi- cal positions of Generals Cass and Taylor. He spoke of the charge against Gen. Cass of loving his own country and disliking the British government— of tne charge that General Cass was unwilling to give up our clear and rightful title to Oregon, because Great Britain claimed it. These charges Col. Allen admitted to be true ; and he asked if the American people were ready to repudiate a gallant soldier—the ablest of our statermen-—because he loved the land protected by our | stare and stripes, and disliked the fovernment of our country’s vindictive, grasping, an hereditary enemy, Col. Allen, at some length, reviewed General Taylor's position on the veto power, and showed that, even b: the Allison letter, General Taylor gave himself fal room to veto any measure he might dislike. He spoke of those who served their country, and, in 80 doing, showed the difference between the regular and the volunteer—the men who made war their trade, | and they who entered the army only when the coun- try was at war, and left its ranks at the return of | peace. The volunteer soldier has often been preferred to bigh office—but never have the people elected an officer of the regular army to any civil station since first the government was form In search of avail- ability, the whigs have gone to the regular army for their candidate for President—to fill the highest civil office. Washington, Monroe, Jackson, Harrison, Cass, Butler, and Weller, were all soldiers, but not of tl reguiar army. Their trade was not war—in pea they were statesmen. General nee is a warrior— his trade is war—he knows nought but war, and this he confessed when he frankly said that he had never yoted, and knew not whether a Bank of the United States was warranted bythe constitution or not. Thave made this skeleton sketch of the Hon. Senator’s speech, as it no doubt forms the gist of what he will speak on, ateach of the eighteen different appointments, he has made throughout the State. In the evening, Charles Sweetzer, Esq., of Dele- ware, the democratic nominee for Congress, de- livered a speech in Medary’s Hall, to a large crowd. He spoke at great len; but with much labor, in endeavoring to avoid ‘ollowing the tenor of his “illustrious predecessors,” {who spoke through the day. And, to me, there seemed to be an evident want of that stimulus which 1s in- spired by a somewhat certain expectation of gain- ing whut one labors for, rom my intercourse, which has been, and 1s, quite free with the leading democrats resident here, as wellas those who visit us, I find that their opinion about carrying the State, is open for the further developements in regard to the tree soil movement. If this will not, inthe end, amount to much--that is, if the anti lavery whigs can be brought to vote for Gen. Taylor instead of Van Buren, the State, of course, will go for Taylor. Both whig and democratic leaders are laboring as though it was already known that Ohio will cast the die. Wesrern Scring.

Capt. C. received a severe wound on the back of the skull from a cavalry sword. His life was considered in danger several days, but he is now walkingabout. Two of the other officers were wounded, but not dangerously. Three of the cut- throats were alsowounded. On the day of the 27th ult., Capt. 1otten, commanding the Water Witch, and all the officers attached to that eteamer, were, among many other persons, invited toa ball, got up in a hurry, in honor of the re-incorporation of ¥ ucatan with Mexico. ‘The ball was, to take place the same evening, at the former quarters of Capt. Bigelow. Capt Totten and some of his officers assisted, as did also Capt. Clary, The former left at about half-past ten. Some of officers, who had but scarcely arrived there, remai: longer, and were now aud then invited by some of t Mexican milit: and authorities to take some thing to drink. A Mexican seems to have b-en particularly attentive to ther the way of offering them cham ‘and other liquors, Towards half-past one in the ning. the ladies commenced to give out, and towards two the officers and Capt. Clary left the bull-room. They afterwards divided into two parties, each one taking a different street, inthe direction of the sea-shore, when thé were first separately, and then collectively attac and re-attacked, by about thirty armed men, (Yucatan. soldiers,) most of whom had cavalry swords. These barbarians then drove them from one part of the town to the other, making at every halt a fresh attack upon them, Capt. Clary was the only one who had any afns about him, in the shape of a small Bowie knife. As soon as the toldiers had com d the butchery by cut- ting rightand left, with their heavy swords, Clary took hold of his knife and ‘ied several cuts that were imed not only at him, = He soon, howeve r, found th: sive he had bi gun with, could be of no avail against such odds, he therefore made a desperate rush with his little knife upon the body of sailaate, and these, though ten- fold in numbers, armed, opened, and gave a little way ; but this gleam of hope soon vanished, The next moment Clary’s hoarse and exhausted voice was heard, crying out ‘to the officers, “Save yourselves, if ‘ou can; I have lost a finger ,and my knife is gone.”” e was then lying on the ground, exhausted. Other scencs followed, which 1 have no time to relate. Capt, Clary was taken on board the Water Witch, and left under the charge of A. J, White, who has shown him all the attention in his power, and skilfully dressed his wounds,cf which he has not less than fourteen,includiag bruises. Capt. Nicholson, commanding U.S. schooner Saratoga, was immediately informed of the ocourrence, and arrived here from outside the bar about 2 o’clock in the afternoon. He first sent Capt. Totten to the mili- tary commander of this place, to hear what ne had to say to the affair. He thought it was a very dis- agreeable one. (O calma Mexicana!) Capt. Totten saw he could not get anything more out of him, and reported the conversation to Capt. N., who was ex- tremely vexed at the occurrence, and seemed to have taken it to heart. He then went to see the com- mander himself, and told him in stron; it dignified, language thatsuch a massacre requiredan immediate satisfaction; that it must be given, and that he would not leave before it was given. The military chief tried to get clear by talking; but Capt. N.’s arguments were so short and ‘clear, that, after a little while, the former offered to inflict a severe punishment on all those men who might result guilty, and, furthermore, to send the whole body of soldiers now here back to the interior within eight days. Two days were grant- ed to the military commander for a mock trial, which ended yesterday, and this morning two soldiers re- ceived fifty lashes each, and two non-commissioned officers were suspended. It is necessary to remark, that three of the most respectable persons here declared on oath that on the same night they had heard an order given to the guard on the market- place, that they should not allow any American to'pass ‘without falling upon him and treating him like a dog.

The deceased had been the executor of an estate, in administering to which there was some alle- ged informality, which led to his arrest on Monday afternoon by order of the Orphans’ Court, He was taken in charge during Monday night, in order to be brought before the court yesterday morning, and was kept at his house. About fire o'clock yesterday morn- ing, a report of a pistol was heard by Mr. §. and his wife, when the former instantly proceeded to the room occupied by the deceased, and discovered him lying on the floor, weltering in his blood. An alarm was then raised by rome of his friends and neighbors, who, upon entering the room of the unfortunate man, found by his side @ small single barrel pistol. Upon examina- tion it was ascertained that he had discharged the contents of.a pistol loaded with buckshot into his right ear, the effect of which was to destroy the whole upper portions of the brain. ‘The verdict of the jury was, that he bad committed suicide in the manner de- seribed, while under a state of excitement, caused by his arrest and the prospect of imprisonment under eir- cumstances connected with the estate to which he had been administering.

In se- cond hands, the stock is estimated at 25 000 bbls. The demand is now very limited, and the bakers buying only for their immediate wants, cannot, therefore, expect apy improvement in prices, but the reverse, should arrivals still continue, as there is little chance of any export demand, and the opinion is general that the arrivals of the new crop will b» early and abundant.

Sales are mad with extreme difficulty, mostly at very low prices, especially teas. The old stock is still very heavy, and the large and unexpected arrivals of 440 pkgs. from the U.
