Under the old Spanish laws, many of which are still recog- nized in Chili, most of these estates are entailed, and have thus been dp pospeminn of a few wealthy families since the early Castilian conquests.

The Copiapo road is now paying two per cent per month on its cost, and when com- pleted to the mines, it is thought it will be the most productive railroad in the world.

The crop of wheat having tallea far short of the quantity estimated, the price of flour continues to rule high in this market, with no immediate pros- pect of a decline. The best Conception brands are now worth $7 75 to $8, at which figures thirty to forty thousand bags bave recently been taken for California. These shipments have been predicated on heavy advances in that market; for, after paying duties, freights, and commissions, they must realize at least $13 per barrel to cover cost, which qill ea- able American shippers of this great staple to com- pete successfully with speculators on this side.

The Congress and Cownty Nominations—The Both tho whig and democratio..partics have their candidates inthe field, for support at the coming election, three weeks hence. A week since, the democrats held their nominating convention. There were two prominent candidates for Congress, Rufus | W. Peckham, Esq, and Col. Robert E. Temple. | The partios were so equally divided that neither could tell, with any certainty, which was the strongest, and-it was not until the ballot was taken | that it hecame :known who stood the highest. It then appeared that Mr Peckham had e majority of four votes, and was declared the candidate. The opposite side yielded with admirable grace, andthe democracy, now-united, will give him a cordial sup- port.

A heart-rending ecene occurred on the boat, while I was coming from Cleveland to Buffalo After we had left the wharf, a poor woman--an emigrant from the Rbine—was discovered on board She had got separated from her husband, and was waiting his return, whon the boat left. She had asick infunt in her arms, and was not able to speak one wori of English, to make her wants er her troubles known About midnight the child died. It seemed too much for the mother to endure—she conld not believe that its spirit had fled— she called it by en- dearing names—pressed it to her bosom, fearing that rome one would take it from her, and sank into a derponding state, gazing wildly into vacuity. Be- parated from her husband, penniless, frieudless, a stranger in a strange land, and unable to spesk the language, or receive a word of consolation in hor deep afilictions—finally, the death of her child—it was more than freil humanity could bear. Awakened toa sense of her forlorn situation, and convinced that her infant was no more, her piercing cries for her husband and her child reached every part of tho boat, and drew around her a crowd of idle people, who gazed unfeelingly at her, as though it was a rare and splendid sight. Alas for the rarity Of Christian charity Under the sun She called upon the heavens to give them back, and the sea; but the etars twinkled mildly in their arch of azure blue, and the foam capped waves danced merrily by, as if in derision of her misory and distrees forsook itstbrone Sho be- came @ raving maniac, and nothing but a wreck of her former self remained The contemplation of distress purifies a well regu- lated mind, and makes us better.

Tilden was in this place on the ult., when, in convereation with a few indiyidaals, he stated that in & private circle of friends in Cleveland, he among the number, you stated, in substance, this:—‘That you were in favor of the election of General Scott that your uxpose in coming to the West was to se- | not thought best to that ou would adopt some other ;”” and tbe regzon you faa for so doing so, as Mr Tilden made the impression, was, that you con- sider the interests of freedom would be comparative- ly safe in his hands | Believing that you never made such statements, | and for the purpose of putting a stop to the use that | is being made of them, we trust you will favor us Wa Tursrr,” Committeo. CiEveELAnP, Oct. 2, 1852 Gentlomon—Your favor of the Ist instant is be- fore in which you give cortain statements which Hon. Daniel K Tilden is said to have made relative to conversation I bad in a private circle of friends in Cleveland, he being of the number. Ihave neither time nor reco.lection sufficient to state all the conversation I have had in Cleveland; but I can state most unequivocally, and without hesitation, that I never had any such conversation with Mr. Tilden, nor any one else, in a circle of friends in Cleveland, nor elsewhere. Soon after ay acrival in Cleveland, I think the eame day, Mr. Tilden called on mo at my lodgings, and requested of me a private and confidential in- terview. AsI had known Mr Tilden in Congress, | and had a high regard for him asa man of integrity, atd also as one who had been known as an anti- | slavery man, the interview was readily granted. | Mr. Tilden represented to me that he had great | fears of the consequences that would result from the , election of Mr Pierce adverge to tho cause of free- dom, to all of which I assented, and told him I was 8¥ much opposed to the election of Pierce as ho was | He further represented that my coming to Ohio would heve a direct tendency to bring about the | very result which I deprecated, and that the only i effect of my labors in Ohio would be the defeat of | the very object I desired to promote, viz: the suc | cess of the cause of freedom. | From this I dissented, and told him I did not think it wes so, and that if I had thought that my Vitit to Obio would be the occasion of aiding and siren gihentog the cause of slavery, 1 certainly | should not have come. | : a is the amount of the conversation, as I reool- | lect it. Lhave not probably given the whole ; but I utter- ly deny, and challenge the proof to the contrary, | that l have in any private conversation, with any one, since I came into Ohio, uttered a word at va- tiance with, or inconsistent with, what I have said | in my Leap addresses. | If this conversation was had with a circle of | friends, let any and all of them be called to contra- | dict me, if { have not stated the truth My public addresses are before the public, and any one bas a perfect right to draw from them, or any one of thom, any inferences which may fairly be deduced from | them. But no man, or set of men, have aright, from convertations in private, which are in perfect, accordance with my public speaking, to form concla- | sions of their own, and then pablish them as my bayings. y phe etated that when Mr. Tilden sought a con- verration with me, ho desired that it should bea confidential one; but I have no desire for aay such shield to protect me from anything I have said He, and every other man in this State, have my fal! per- | thing I bave said to them, Trusting that J have fully answered remain, with much respect, your frien Jous P, Hane.
