Summary of the Latest Intelligence. Inder our telegraphic head, in to-day’s paper, eur readers will find some of the correspondence of eur government, in relation to Kossuth and his compatriots, in Turkey; it being the letter of the Hon. Daniel Webster to Mr. Marsh, United States Minister at Constantinople, requesting him to ap- ply to that government for permission to Kossuth aad other Hunganan refugees to embark ina government vessel, to the United States. We eball endeaver to publish this correspondence in full, in to-morrow’s paper. A number of appointments were contirmed by the Senate, yesterday, as our readers will perceive by referring to ourtelegraphic head; that of the Hon. ‘'T. Butler King, as Collector of California, being among them. father Ritchie’s last hope for indemnity, it ep pears, has fled until the next session. The subjec, was brought up yesterday im the shape of an amendment to a resolution directing the Secretary of the Senate to contract for printing, at half the prices of 1849, fifteen thousand copies of the tirst part of the last report of the Patent office, and thirty thousand of the second part. The resuly ‘was, that the subject was laid om the table, and Father Ritchie along with it. The present system of having the public printing executed is about badas the old one; end we are satisfied that nei- gher the reporting nor the printing of the govern- ment will be satisfactorily performed, until the go- vernment takes this matter into its own hands. We have repeadly ssid a: much, end the longer ‘we live the more we ere convinced of it. Father Ritchie’s claim does not affect the principle we have contended for. if the payment to our vene- rable cotemporary of what he has lost by his con- tract would break up the present system, we would favor it with all our might. ‘We learn that the captain of the American brig Leander has been released by the authorities of Hayti, and that the Haytien covernment had agreed Kd pay five thousand dollars as damages for his ‘egal detention. This would mever have been ac- complished but for the peremptory demand made | root that takes the reason prisoner ?”” atthe request of the Secretary ot State, ia pursu- ance of a resolution of the Senate, a new work on Japan and the Oriental nations, which was trans- mitted to the Senate, with high commendation ; | and although, we are reliably informed, it contains a great variety of new and valuable information of immediate interest, both to the Government and Commerce of the country, it has never yet been Printed. For all these valuable labors, and his time, services, and expenses incurred therein, we regret to observe, by his said memorial, that he has mever received any remuneration from any quarter whatever. His published documents have been regarded with favor by the scientific and commercial world at home and abroad, republish- ed by many of the leading journals of-Great Bri- tain and her Oriental possessions, and translated into several European languages, as new and im- portant contributions to Oriental geography. The population of the Oriental countries exceeds six hundred and fifty millions, and is spread overa region most of which presents new fields for Ame- rican commerce. If we possessed an Executive sufficiently enlightened, and with a capaeity ade- quate tothe exigencies of his position, he would long since have adopted the policy recommended by the New York and Baltimore memorialists to General Taylor and himself, of opening and extending our trade with those regions, throvgh the agency of a new &nd specially qualified Commissioner to China, in the per- son of Mr. Palmer. But, it would appear, that after treating him with colduess and neglect, and yet eagerly aveiling of the valuable information contained in his several documents and commu nications respecting those countries, and disre- garding his high claims and recommendations as unworthy of consideration, Mr. Fillmore has seen fitto send to the wilds of East Tennessee fora political partisan and ordinary county court lawyer, not even an applicant for the post, as is believed, who knows nothing whatever of either Oriental foreign missions, ia the present posture of Ameari- can interests and commerce on the Pacific coast, and in Eastern and Soutbern Asia. We consider this a case of peculiar hardship and injustice to Mr. Palmer ; and we are warranted in regarding it as an evidence of the policy by which Mr. Fillmore is governed in his diplomatic appoiat- ments. Indeed, the deaf ear he has turned to the suggestions and recommendations of nearly all the leading merchants of this city and Baltimore, en- gaged in the China, India, and Pacific trade, on the importance of extending our Oriental com- merce, and the appoiatment of a properly qualified Commissioner, possessing their confidence, for the migsion, leads us, irresistibly, to the conclusion that they have nothing whatever to hope or expect for the promotion of that commerce during the existence of Mr. Fillmore’s weak, vascillating, and anti-commercia! administration. INCREASE oF EXTRAORDINARY SuicipEs—Tue Er. rxcrs cr Soctaist Tuzorres—Tue Famity or Oyg-Evep Tuomrson.—Our news columas con- tain an account of another suicide which has been committed by amember o° the eenior class of Har- vard College, by the identical means, even to the quantity, which were used by Oae-Eyed Thomp- son, in this city ; and a letter from Mr Grieve, the father of the young man who, with his wife, re- cently perished by their own acts at Quincy.

Commissioner Extraordinary to China. Ata time when the people of this empire repub- | lic on the Atlantic and Pacific, have been awaken- | ed by the various memoirs ef Aaron Haight | Palmer, of this city, to the importance of extend. ing American commerce with el! the chief trading | marts and emporiums of China, and of opening com- mercial intercourse with Japan, the ladian Archi- pelago, and the independent maritime countries of | the East, we connot dissemble our surprise to Jearn that the President has appoiated a Mr. Nelson, ef the village of Jonesboro’, in Eas: Tennessee, to the China mission, without, as we unierstand, eather his knowledge or solicitation, The few who chance to know him in Washington, doubt whether he willeven accept the thie be the fact, it has been suggested that the pur- pose of the administration in makiag such an ap- peintment is to create e,vacancy, in the recess of Congress, so as to enable it to promote the Rev Dr. Peter Parker, Mr. Webster's connexion, aad the present acting Charge d’ Affaires in China, tothe Post. We are bound, difficul: as the task is, in ail eberity, to presume thet this selection was made adg- by Mr. Fillmore according to the best of his ment, and with due regard ‘o Mr. Nelson’ fitners for the office; which the country, howe has yet, unfortunately for its great conmercial imterests, to learn, having never, till now, heard of the existence of such @ person. ‘Some men, says Snekepeare, “are born % some achieve gree’ and others have greatness thr wpon them.” We app nd this new sioner Ex:racracinary, #0 far as hs eppcintment ie concerned, W im the latter category We have he @an firme, lar ef opium emuge by Mr. Palmer in @ated a secret oF may be the cause of bie f te China, it couatry is thereby services ia this con Teliable gentleman, of un anw certain proitable h is denounced have inst © what the m.ssion tr angio me, eit ever be pre-eminenily qualified, is ation.

Similar memorials were ad- @reseed to Mr. Fillmore, in Ovtober last, as stated } tm this paper at the tims, signed by the same classes | of persons in this city, and aleo by the chief mer- chants of Baltimore, representing an aggregate capital of upwards of forty millioas of dollars, em- ployed in the commerce and business pursuits of the two cities, recommending Mr. Palmer, ia the highest terme, for the mission We have received, at various times, within ths Saat five years, four important memoirs of MP Palmer, relating to Oriental r printed either by order of Congress or Lepartment of State, of all Which, it appears, by hie m to he HW ase of Nepresentatives of Janva he hee printed extra copies at his own chatae, t eupply the great demand for them from Senators and members. About a year since, he prepared, commerse, & It would not be amiss in the | daily ! La some casea, the contemplation of suffer- ing families, suddenly shattered by the effects of the poison diffused through society, awakes the strong- | grow out of the poetical, est feelings in their behalf; but too lite do we heer of that reprobation of the actual causes of such occurrences, which are prepared by the hands of men who claim to be great moral reformers, and even enlightened patriots. Since the suicide of One-Eyed Thompson there has been a substantial sympathy for the widow and children of that unhappy man. We have received, from several anonymous sources, contributions in money, in one or two cases to con- siderable amounte, which show that the hand of | true charity is not only willing, but ready, to ex- | tend that aid for the unfortunate family, which may serve to alleviate their present necessities, and to educate the children in such a way, as to promote their tutare weefulness and happiness. The letter of the miserable man, who so recently terminated bis strange and erratic career by his own hand, it would appear, has had a remarkable influence on the minds of many ivdividuals throughout the coun- try, and we have no doubt that many more contri- butions for the beneht of his family will be added to thoee which already have been made. Such an is caloulated w excite the hearts of thou- }, and to suggest many serious reflections io the niinds of those who are in the habit of contem- pletirg the progress of men through lives marked by peculiarities, which are unaccountable to the mese of society. The character of One-Eyed Thompson was made op of strange elements. His letter to his wife, writ- tea a little while before his death, singular pro- doction, whieh reveals more of his true nature, and of the better side of it, than anything else with which we ere acquainted. In that document, it a, that he entertained a warm, generous, and parental regard for his family, for whose future welfare he was deeply solicitous, and exhibited val of heart, which belonged to no other rela- of his life. Dornot reepectable parents of the Methodist society, who were anxious to rear their 2 honor and usefulness, his early advantages ‘h as mighthave led him into a career very reat from that which finally drove him into a to were suc dif state of despair, and made him act the part of the ecorpion towards himself. The natural abilities which distinguished him in his early years, and 2 were then so fascinating ae to wia for him we learn, of r etrble education and c ishments, were soon led away by some of thoee peculiar theories which have been promul. geted by moderna reformers, and even warmly ad vocetel daily journals deemed respectable T theories, which teach the dectrine of iatel- lect, in contradistinction, and ia opposition to any more élevated moral pewer—which renew the pride of Lucifer against Heavena— omicg more and more common. They but yet pestiferous fan- ciee, of euch wricers as Fourier, George Saada, and @ whole race of French and German authors, who ivete youthful minds by the glare and glitter of their phraseology, and the oriental aad myatic cha- tacter of their ideas. As ifto add weight to euch mental ¢peculations, mechanical philosophy haw been brought ute action, and advocated as epiritual monifestations. The Rochester kaockings have completed the effeet of the delusion—how fear- Jolly, we thi vk the fatal end of Thompson, the sur cides of Mr. aad Mrs. Greve, at Quincy, Massa chusette, that of the German who kilied himeelf at the last hour of the last year, urd those of several other Germans, within the past two montha in this city, will sufficiently elucidate. la these cases fod in others, the socialist doctrines, through some channe|, seem to have swept each uahappy vietimn to the brink of selfdestruction. Such is the im tble tendeney of thio belief in the pride of iates daily be Oct, eo grepuicelly aud powerfully portsayed by * be nObje freight, geography, commerce, languages, or polity, to be | entrusted with one of the most important of all our | Miltaa, in his poetical history of the fallen angels. Moral accountability is a despised and neglected doctrine. The Christian , rinciples which animat- ed the Puritans, and the early settlers of Virginia, and {upon which, in some shape or creed, have been based all the groundwork of society and civili- tation, are overturned as the mere useless scaffold- ig which has been necessary only to rear the edi- fice. Men are taught to regard nothing except themselves and their fellow-mea, and the latter last, while every precept of Christianity is disre- garded as unjfitted for the state of high intellectual progreas in which mankind are now represented to exist. In this way, our public achool system, by the agency of journals devoted to these new doc” trines, is a mere intellectual one. It teaches nothing of heaven, of God, or of the belief in a fu- ture spiritual existence. Our schools are but the nurseries of that same pride and obstinacy of intel- lect which leads men into erratic courses, and, if we may believe the history of man, finally into the narrow cirele of gel‘-destruction. One-Eyed Thompson, doubtless, v’a2 one of the victims of this new school ot philosophy. He had learned to hate successful honesty, till he hated honest men. He equally detested rogues, when he could rise by their downfall. Having no regard for God, he had none for man; and we find him one of the earliest associates of the police spies of this city, end, at last, an adeyt in stool-pigeon practice, that led him to total discomfiture and defeat. However, there never was thar unnatural monster in existence who could teach his children, at his death-bed, to neglect the beneficent means which society provides for the moral culture ofthe young. Thus, Thompson, with the bravery of pride, seeking the mysteries of the great “heareafter,”, virtually acknowledges his want of reliance on his own socialist and atheistic doctrines, and commends to the virtuous and good — for vice always admires virtue—the education of his children. iflow this was to be done, the un- happy man did not state ; but there is a strong sig- nificance in his language. It was not necessary to say more. How the virtuous and the good would do this, he was well aware; and it must be the earnest hope and desire of this benevolent,community, not only to afford all requisite eid tor this purpose, but to assist also the unhappy widow to carry out her intentions. We do not know Mrs. Thompson, but tince the voluntary contributions for her support have passed through our hands, to gratify her heart and to lessen her griefs and anxieties, we have learned that she is an estimable wife and mother— that she has borne her thorny pillow with the meek- ness of a saint, and with new hopes daily in her own influence over her late husband. No one can feel as tenderly as she can for the future happiness of her children, and the charitable, in confiding to her hands the means for supporting the family in re- spectability and honor, will not misplace their bounty. We shall be happy to convey to the af- flicted mother all sums which may be entrusted to our care, amd are ready to aid, either through a benefit or by any other means which may be deemed most desirable, in raising such a fuad as will re- lieve the widow from that heart-breaking tribu'a tion which has, for many years, burthened her with griefs and anxieties. Assured that this isa work of charity and of mercy, we do not doubt that the public will nobly follow the examples which have already been given by the charitable in our columns.

Bhe left the Collime Dock, at the foot of Canal street, at about halfpast twelve o'clock, and proceeded up the North River as farasthe village of Yonkers, at a speed ranging from fifteen to nineteen miles an hour, proving herself to!beone of the fastest vessels afioat. The run from Yonkers back again te the city, was acecmplished in a very short time, al- though the engines were not more than at half speed. On approaching the dock from which she took her de- parture] the steamship Georgia was about a mile ahead, and in about balf an hour the Caribbean overtook her without any diffoulty. She then passed the steamship North America; «nd, after accomplishing these feate returned to the city. ‘The Caribbean will be commended by Captain J.
