The pilot h.d his boat out looking after inward bound vessels, and could not land the boy. When the poor fellow saw there was no hope he resigned himself to despair In the mean| the father and mother of the boy had beard what had been done. and they were indignant at the barbarous and inhumane treatment pur sued towards them and their son. They said they had plenty of money to support themselves and him, and they did not want him to bea burthen on the State. The Emigration Society heard of it through a friend of Ireland, and Jonn Rue, with warrants in his possersion, pursued the vessel for two days; but she was a tide ahead, and coul be overtaken. Meah- time proceedings have been adopted to make the parties in New York, concerned in this affair, amenable to jus- tice; and we understand a special messenger is to be sent out by the next mail steamer, to have the captain of the Bryan Abbs arrested under the Ashburton T and sent back here to be tried by the laws of the State of New York. The Emigration Society aro repared to go all lengths to bring the offenders to Justice. Tue Cemerenins.—The City Inspector has closed a number of the cemeteries. from their want of room for further interment, and the consequent danger to health. by allowing any further burials in them, He has applied to the Board of Health for advice and co- fon ns to others. and itis understood. they him their sanction to have them closed also. lancholy fact that the trustees of many of these cemeteries are keeping them open for gain. when they know right well there is no further room, and that they are permitting the interments contrary to law, ‘The law is, that no dead body shall be interred within less than six feet of the surface of the adjoin- ing rtreet. But, in many of these grave yards they are burying them within two feet of the surface, and the putrescence of the dead can be distinctly smelled through the earth. Take one instance. At the corner of Wooster and Amity streets. there is a cemetery b longing to the Oliver street Baptist church, It wi examined, yesterday, by the City Inspector. It w: found that the coffin ‘in one grave was only two feet from the surface ; another, two feet four inches, and another, one foot ten inches. A child, buried on Mon- day last, was interred just two feet three inches below the surface ; and there were ten new graves, in not one of which was the coffin three feet under the surface. Ina graveyard in Forty-fourth street, between Eighth and ‘Ninth avenues, other mal-practices are going on. This cemetery had been all filled, except a huge vault in one corner. That now is filled too, with but three feet of earth over the bodies. A new vault is now be- ing made, and the remains of the dead have been dis- turbed. their bones torn up, and about thirty bodies flung promiscuously into one huge grave, which is already filled within two feet of the surface. and we suppose will be filled within as many inches of it This and other cemeteries have come under the observation of the City Inspector, and we believe he will do his duty, and that it is intended to enforce the law in future against all sextons who transgress it. Fine —A fire was discovered by officer Lochead yester- day morning. about 4 o'clock, in the extensive marble establishment of Underhill & Perris, corner of Beach and Greenwich streets, It soon extended to the ad- toining premises of Simsons, ocoupied as a paint sho; ‘and damaged the rear part of the houses on Washing- ton street. (Damage to Underhill & Perris about $12,000, partly covered by insurance. Tue Russ Pavement.—Mr. Russ has commenced the work of excavation, for the contiuuation of the gra- nite pavement, from the north line of Vesey street, in Broad , to Maiden Lane. Iiis eontract requires him toj finish a section to Maiden Lane, this fall. {he remaining section, to Wall street, will be laid next season. All the leading thoreughfares in the city ought to be laid with the sume pavement. It will prove the cheapest in the end. ‘Tue Fare Acapemy.—The examination at the Free Academy has just closed, and 23 pupils were found not red to go on in the regular course, and were put Beck: to go over the ground again. Out of 136 candi- dates for admission, for the ensuing year, only 58 were found to possess the requisite qualifications to enter.

As there is at this moment considerable anxiety relative to the growing plant, and much speculative feeling @x- isting regarding the extent of the crop, we give the views of a very intelligent and carefal correspondent upon the subject. The gentleman to whom we allude bas just finished an extensive tour of some weeks through the cotton region, and uuder date of the lth inst., from Mobile, says “The general eOndition of the crop is now good. for although the planters had to contend with mauy dif. culties during the months of May and June, they have finally succeeded in working their crops into admirable order. The greatest obstacle toa very large yield, is the thinness of the stand, a result of the re- planting, and which, as it has curtailed to a very large extent the quantity of cotton actually in the ground. must of Generally speaking, the plant is very small and backward, boing not more than half the size usual at this season of the year. but in some places it looks large and vigorous, [ regard the final result as entirely uncertain; with a favorable fall, and with an exemption from any extra- ordinary dicasters, 1 can see nothing in the present condition of the crop, that would render impracticable a fair average yield, and therefore all attempts at esti- mates must prove entirely speculative, until a later period of the season The weather for the last few days has been rather adverse, being cool and rainy— we want dry weather and a hot sun, with only an occa- sional shewer, from this time to Ist October, to insure @ favorab) ‘The speculations of this correspondent upon the growth of the crop, during the past three years, have been particularly accurate, and are therefore entitled to much consideration, ‘The aunexed statement exhibits the quantity of cer- tain articles exported from this port, for the week end- | ing July 24th. distinguishing the destination and extent of shipments to each place :— | Commence or tHe Port or New Yorx—Werexry Ex- ronrs.

There has been a very great increase in the shipments of each article but corn | meal, which bas fallen off but about twenty-five per cent, The most gratifying foature in this report is the immense quantity of Indian corn shipped from this country to England und Ireland, and the weekly ex- portation continues execedingly large. Prices for breadstufls in England rule low—lower than bas been known for years. It appears, by the par- Namentary reports, that the average price of wheat for the last ten years, has been 59*, 104d. The average price now, in England, is 44s. 6d., showing a reduction of 26 per cent. Notwithstanding this reduction, prieos at present are remunerative, and shipm: canbe made from this side at # profit, eo long as our markets continu as at present. We can compete successfully with the agriculturists of England in their own markets; and the outlet thus formed for our products, particularly bread- stuff*, must have a very great influence upon this im- portant Interest, The impulse it will give to agricul. tural pursuits in this country, will tend toinorense the fupply, and prevent any expansion in prices at home, calculated tocheck shipmentsabroad.

Funeral Obsequies to Prendent Polk— Fast Day— Remains of Conrad Vintner—Cholera—The Mar- kets, ec. The funeral obsequies in honor of President Polk take place here this evening, and, as is usual with Baltimore, she outshines all her sister cities, in the evidences of patriotism. It has been con- cluded to forego a funeral procession, but at six o’clock this evening, the military and various as- sociations will march te Monument Square, where the whole front ef the Court House has been form- ed into a rostrum and staging, appropriately adorn- ed and trimmed with emblems of mourning. A spacious cenotaph is alse being erected, consisting of a succession of fine Grecian arches, each taste- fully draped with black cloth. Under the centre arch the Speaker’s stand will be placed, whilst in front will repose a coffin. During the ceremonies, which will not be finished until alter nightfall, the cenotaph will be brilliantly illuminated, Archbishop Eccleston has issued a circular, en- j his clergy and the Roman Catholics of ese of Baltimore, the observance of the first Friday in August, as a day of prayer, fast- ing and humiliation, in accordance with the re- commendation of President Taylor. ‘The remains of peor Vintner, who was hung on Friday last, for the murder of Mrs. Cooper, were taken by some friends, and buried in a. private burying ground, about four miles from the city, belonging to the Hamdesten family. The consent of one member of the family had been previous- ly obtained, but it gave great dissatisfaction to the remainder of them, and on Monday night, the body was taken up, and brought back to the city, and dumped down at the gate of the jail. It was taken yesterday mar by the warden and buried in Potter’s Field, and is this morning said to be quietly repesing on a dissecting table awaiting the attention of the you knights of the scalpel. Poor fellow !—both sou and body have had rough usage in this world. May he be better treated in the next. He was most urgent in his desire that his body should be left to rest undisturbed, where his friends had_concluded to deposit it. There were LL new cases of cholera at the Almshouse, and five deaths, yesterday, making 124 cases and 65 deaths in all. “ The probability is, that all, or nearly all of the sick inmates will be swept off by it. There 1s still no case in the city, with the exception of two paupers who had fled from the Almshouse to escape it, but were overtaken in the city, and sent back again. In the Baltimore market there were sales yesterday of 1,000 bis. Howard st. flour, at $5; also, 100 bbls City mills, fresh ground from old wheat, at $5; and1,000 bbls. ‘on terms not made public.

We have a favorable report from the Board of Health to-day—41 cases and 14 deaths in all, em- bracing 31 cases and 6 deaths in private practice, 5 cases and 2 deaths in the hospitals, and 5 cases and 6 deaths in the almshouse. The disease has broken out with great malignity in the Bucks ceunty almshouse; 35 deaths having oceurred since Friday, out of a population ot 140. The death of Phillip McQuaid, alluded to in my letter of yesterday, has since been discovered to have been caused by the lodging of a large piece of meat in his throat, which he attempted to swallow be- fore masticating it sufficiently. y ‘The contractors for the construction of the dry deck at our naval station have completed the cofier dam, and are now engaged im pumping out the water, so as to commence actual operations on the stone work, of which the sides and bottom ot the basin are to be built. One of the sections of the floating dock is nearly completed, and two others are now in progress. i Itis currently reported that an accident has be- fallen the largest of the three copper boilers built here by Messrs. Merrick & Towne, for the United States propeller steamship, now on the stocks at the Breoklyn Navy Yard. It is said that the crane at the Brooklyn yard broke, while the boiler was suspended from it, and that it fell into thirty feet water. My iofe nt also stated that aman was killed, and another dreadfully crushed at the same ume ; but this | must conclude to be incorrect, as I have observed no report ot the occurreace in the columns of the Herald. : Wm.

The journey from Fabyan’s, some twenty miles to Littleton, is by a good stage road, along the oosuck, which flows southwest into the Connecticut. The country is wild and broken, rocky, and comparatively thinly populated ' at first; but the appearance of the land and the houses rapidly improves as you descend the stream. Fires were indicated from the heavy tmoke in the mountains to the right at severa places, The houses along the way seem to be badly protected against the weather. Every vestige of a tree has been swept away from them ae if it were a penal offence for a New tlampshire farmer to have even a sapling standing near his house. They are without shutters or blinds, and through the numereus windows the sun bi into the estubliehment all day long. It is a re- markable fact, that ia a country where the woods have to be cleared away to muke room for the there is not a house in a handred that ntage of a single tree to shelter it frou therun, Live: hool houses which we passed have bed the axe eo to the surrounding weods for their benefit, and are left to the full exposure of the summer heats and the winter's winds. How there New Hampshire people got into the habit. of exposing their thin wooden houses to the elements, we cannot divine. Lut we have noticed that the practice is almost oniversal in the United States ; and that even where a man inteads to have a shade before his house, in buildiag one ona new farm, he will clear away the forest trees, affording the most beautitul grove, already grown, and plent amall saplings, of inferior varieties, which a hundred years will not bring to the perfection of those removed. There 1s a sort of stupidity in the thing, for which there is neither any reason nor any excuse—a practice by which thousands ef beautiful residences, otherwise, have me wh wy | allover the country. Isut we are surprised at the exhibition of this folly in New England. It ought to be a principal of common school education, to spare the shade trees around the honse ; and yet the echool house itself, in New Hatnpshire, is robbed of ite trees; and although nothin, could be more grateful to the children than a cool shadow: grove around the building, for thoic#ports, as well as for their comfort, we have yet to leara that in ;
