King was yesterday enabled to leave Wash- ington for Havana, in the United States steamer Fulton, which vessel had been specially fitted up for his accommodation. It is hoped that a perfect re- laxation from the cares of business, together with the change to a more salubrious climate, will suf- ficiently restore his health to admit of a resump- ‘tion of his seat at the head of the Senate by the com- mencement of the next session. Hon. Benjamin Fitzpatrick has been appointed by Governor Collier, of Alabama, to fill the unexpired term of the Hon. W. R. King, in the United States Senate. The death of Senator Upham, of Vt., was formally announced in both branches of Congress yesterday ; and after the pronunciation of eulogiums by Senators Foote and Seward, Hon. Mr. Miner and others, and the passage of resolutions complimentary to the memory of the deceased, both bodies, as a further tri- bate of respect, adjourned. The Legislature of this State was not in session yesterday, both bodies having adjourned from Fri- day until to-morrow, for the ostensible purpose of giving the different committees time to perfect their work. The democratic members of the Pennsylvania Legislature, in caucus, have chosen John M. Bi as their candidate for State Treasurer. They have also recommended the 2ith of February for holding the next State Convention to nominate a candidate for Canal Commissioner. As many vague rumors have of late been current relative to the contemplated establishment of a new democratic journal at Washington, and also with re- gard to proposals from a branch of the party for the purchase of the Republic, our special correspondent takes the trouble to raise the veil of mystery, by stat- ing that Gen. Duff Green is the person who desires to get the management of the concern. So the General appears to have given up the idea of colonizing St. Domingo and eventually routing his ebony majesty, the Emperor of Hayti, from his dominions, eh! What's in the wind now? Mr. Bartlett, the Mexican Boundary Commissioner, is reported to be on his way to Washington, he hav- ing arrived at New Orleans on the 11th inst. Late advices from Mexico state that no decision had as yet been rendered concerning the contract for the Tehuantepec route. The accounts relative to the progress of the revolutionists are so contradictory that it is utterly impossible to tell whether the gov- ernment or the insurgents, are, as a general thing, in * the ascendancy. A despatch from Halifax announces that the new Cunard steamer Arabia has one thousand tons of goods on freight. The Arabia will probably be along here to-day, and then such of our citizens as feel dis- pored, by crossing to Jersey City, will have an oppor- tunity of judging for themselves of this specimen of maritime architecture, of which some of the English | journals have recently boasted so much. Tuesday next is to be celebrated in Boston, as the apniversary of the birth of the late Secretary Web ster. We have telegraphic reports of the burning of two cotton mills, yesterday. twenty-five thousand dollars, was entirely consumed: and seventy-five hands were thrown out of employ- ment. Another was injured to the extent of six thonsand dollars, at Millbury, Mass. From Springfield, we learn that a fireman was in- stantly killed and an engineer severely injured, by a collision on the Western Railroad last Friday. It is @ curious fact that of late nearly as many employees as passengers have lost their lives by accidents of this kind, on the different railroads. ny, are said to have passed over the Buffalo and State Line Railroad since last Saturday. This is good news for housekeepers. The packet ship Cornelius Grinnell, which we mentioned as being ashore on Sqnan Beach, in our paper of yesterday, it is feared bas proved a total Joss, as will be seen by the latest report from the scene of disaster, in another column. At the time of going ashore she had three hundred passengers on board, all of whom were fortunately saved. The new bark Esperanza, and two brigs, are ashore in the vicinity of the C. G. Steamers, lighters, and a large number of men, have been sent to their assist- ance. A tin box, belonging to Messrs. Norris & Co., con taining promissory notes and drafts to a large amount, was abstracted from the National Bank, in this city, during Friday night and yesterday morn ing. As payment of the notes have been stopped people should be on their guard against receiving the same. The negro who committed the on Mr. Haydock, has been After having bee murderous assault sted by the police. identified by Mr. H., the prisoner was lodged in the Tombs to await an investigation of the case.

Among the other interesting matt 1 this number of the Henaue it the following: - Letter trom nN conesyning Central American AMuirs, &c.; Inte relative toa © talk’ with the T mation of Gov. Lane; Religi ' The suggestion first thrown out in this jour- nal, several weeks ago, that it would be a stroke of sound policy on the part of Congress to place at the diseretion of Gen. Pierce, in the outset of his administration, a fund of ten millions of dol- lars, in view of the various critical issues con- nected with our foreign relations, we are glad to see has assumed a tangible shape in the House of Representatives, the body to which the initiation of such measures properly belongs. And the pro- position of Mr. Marshall, of California, is the more to the purpose, in disclosing frankly the contin- gencies to which this money is to be applied. Tlis resolution declares, that it is “to meet such exigencies as may arise out of the momentous subjects connected with the present state of the foreign relations of this country with the other powers of the earth, so liable, on account of their character and complexity, to present themeelves, from hour to hour, for practical and immediate consideration.” We have heretofore briefly given the more prominent reasons why this fund of ten mil- lions, (for it had better be ten than five,) should be voted to the discretion of Gen. Pierce; but to the end ofconfirming the strong, and strength- ening the wavering, we seize this opportune oecasion to recur to those reasons again. And we think that a passing glance at them will not only convince every dispassionate reader, alive to the honor and glory of the country, of the safety, propriety, and expediency, but of the manifest and commanding necessity of the mea- sure proposed. First, then, our delicate relations with Spain, and incidentally with England and France, on the Cuba question; our confused and embarrass- ing relations with Mexico; our intricate, perplex- ing, and mortifying relations with England in Central America—to say nothing of the affairs of Hayti, or of the inviting field for an enlarged system of commercial facilities with the States of South America—will demand of the President elect, from the day of his inauguration, all the skill, sagacity, tact, talent, courage, and discre- tion, which he can bring into his administration. Secondly, he will be required to act without further delay, and upon a bolder and more posi- tive and decisive schedule than the milk-and- water policy of General Taylor's cabinet and of Mr. President Fillmore’s. In the third place, a decisive reversal of their policy in regard to Cuba, Mexico, or Central America, may bring us into collision with England, France, or Spain, or with all combined. In the meantime, Congress, adjourning on the fourth of March, does not regularly meet again till the first Monday in December next. During this long vacuum of nine months, the whole weight of the government, with all its foreign responsibilities, will rest upon the Pre- sident and his cabinet. In the absence of any discretionary power, or discretionary means; he may be reduced to the extremity of calling an extra session of Congress ; whereas, with a re- served fund of ten millions to back him, that ive. and generally worse than useless ex- tient. may be avoided. At all events, it is the part of wisdom to provide as far as the crisis requires against any probable necessity for an extra session. As a question of publie economy, then. this discretionary fund of ten millions to the new administration recommends itself. But the probable escape thereby, from the trouble and expense of a called session, though not a mat- ter of small importance. is babe a second- ary consideration. The moral effect upon the powers of Europe, of the proposed grant, is its paramount recommendation. It will give confidence. at once. to the administration in proceeding to business. and confidence to the country that our national honor, our national rights, and our true position among the nations of the earth. are at length to be affirmed and vindicated. On the other hand, considering the emphatic drift, of the late Presi- dential election. its unmistakeable verdict and import in reference to our foreign affairs. and considering the palpable inclinations of the * fierce democracy.” and the manifest tendencies and destiny of this mighty republic, and the mighty people who control it. the ten million | fund to General Pierce will have a moral weight. in his foreign negotiations. of the highest value. It may secure to us every contested point. every desirable concession, every disputed right. and every demand requisite to the full assertion of our rightful attitude on this continent and in Europe, without the hazard of war. It is, in fact. a peace measure—a measure of financial economy, a measure of political propriety. and a measure of public confidence—due to the new administration. and due to the late expressive and significant verdict of the American people. In conclusion, if ten millions were placed at so imposing or critical as those which, on its threshold, will confront the administration of General Pierce, what valid objections can now be made toasimilar measure? If a dis- cretionary fund of three millions was allowed to Mr. Polk, simply with reference to Mexico, (after voting him all needful supplies of men and munitions of war,) scarcely less than ten millions now would be up to the standard of that precedent. We trust that the friends of this measure will not suffer it to lie over until a want of time to act upon it shall lead to defeat. Let General Pierce be inaugurated with the full endorsement of Congress, as he has received the full endorse- ment of the country. The Mapar Famiry—Tur Prestpent’s L TER GONE ovT.—We understand that the Pres’ dent of the United States and the Secretary of State, have each written a private letter to the Duke of Tuscany, appealing for the liberation of the Madiai family, and permission to them to emigrate to the United States. We have every reason to hope that these letters will have their desired effect, from the high authority from which they emanate, and fromthe t that during a year's residence in Tuscany Mr. Ey- erett became intimately acquainted with the Duke. L ng at the success in this coun- try, in the matter of “financial aid,” of Kossuth | and Kinkel, mere political exiles, we may safe- ly assume that ifthe Madia n the more im- sressible character of religious refugees, escape | in every circumstance of thiscase. The person to our shores, it will be the making of them, It | will also he very apt to excite a religions fu- | reve among the heretics, compared with which | the reception of Kossuth will have been a mere 4 hagatelle, Let our venerable Archbishop Hughes equip himself for the fight. Tue Texas Navy.—At length a bill has been | intredneed into the Senate for incorporating | h the Navy the half dozen surviving officors of the navy of the late republic . Itt tdy plece of justice, but let justice be done. | Caine FoR Excores aT THE OreRa.—On Friday evening large portion of the audience at Niblo’s. insisted upon an encore of the music lesson in the opera of “The Daughter of the Regiment;” and though Madame Sontag re- peatedly signified her refusal in the most lady- like manner. it was still demanded, until at length she had to express, by her gestures. her inability to comply with the request. Now, we think the practice of calling for encores in operas, but especially insisting on them where the qrtistes indicate their unwilling” ness, is a great injustice, and in the case of a lady, shows bad manners and want of gal- lantry. An encore in the concert room and in an opera. is a very different thing. In the former, it is more allowable, though even there to encore everything a good artist sings, is exact- ing too much from the artiste, who does not en- gage to sing encores, and might as well an- nounce double the number of songs at once, as be compelled to sing each one twice. In opera, to compel an artiste, by clamor. to sing encores, is often forcing her to do what she is utterly unable to accomplish. There is sufficient labor in getting through the principal rd/e of a long opera, once, without having to repeat the chief songs. There is ano- ther impropriety in it—there is always a large portion of every audience that do not relish an encore of the best songs in the world. There ought to be some respect paid to their feelings, and they ought not to be driven to the alterna- tive of hissing, as they sometimes do, Another objection to encores in opera is, that it delays the action of the piece and takes away consider- ably from its effect as a whole. Let the audience, therefore, applaud at the proper places, as much as they like though not so as to drown the last notes of some beau- tiful cadence. But let them never force a prima donna to sing an encore if she shows the least reluctance to do it. It would be just as fair to ask an actor to repeat a great scene, in which he had put forth all his strength. It would be a great injustice both to the actor and to the audience. Every one who knows anything of the toil and the effort of singing an opera will come to the conclusion that the injustice is far greater in the case of the musical artiste Gems or Musican Criricism.—The following gems appear in our contemporaries. the bune and Times :— There was a full house at the Broadway last night, and “Sonnambula” was received with enthusiastic applause. Signor Vietti, whose performance was a marked improvement upon the previous tenor, was very well received; in fact, every role was well filled. Wien Alboni sung “Ah! Non Credea,” the applause was vehement; but Non Piu Mesta” was the gem which bore the palm of an encore.—Tribune, Jan. 14. On Sunday evening Alboni gives a sacred concert at Metropolitan Hall, with selections from several of | the most celebrated oratorios. On Monday she ap- | pan in “Norma,” as Lucrezia Borgia, at the roadway.— Times, Jan. 15. Of allthe musical morceaux we have ever met in the columns of our contemporaries, or elsewhere, these gems are certainly the rarest. The musical public of New York, and the rest | of mankind, will be most agreeably surprised to find that the “(Non Piu Mesta,” which used to be the finale ot “Cenerentola,” by Rossini, has been transplanted into the opera of a different composer, and the more especially as the “Nou Credea” is so magnificent a finale to Bellini’s “Somnambula.”” It will be equally extraordi- nary news to the music-loving public, to learn” that “Lucrezia Borgia” is a réle in “Norma,” instead of being a distinct opera itself. Oh; shades of Rossini, Bellini! TeLecraruic MistakE—There was pub- lished in the newspapers, a few mornings since, a paragraph among the telegraphic cor- respondence from Washington. accusing the son and clerk of the United States District Judge of New York of being involved in efforts to smuggle through Congress a special bill for the benefit of some India rubber monopolists. The correspongent was completely in error alluded to is not the son of one of the District Judges of New York. and the charge itself is reduced to an absurdity. by the following ex- planation of its origin: It appears that for some time past. a necessity has been felt for the passage of a law under the provisions of which persons guilty of contempt of court—in any of the United States courts —might be arrested in whatever State they might be found, and which would empower the United States marshals throughout the Union to take such persons into custody. All the Judges of the Supreme Court in Washington coincided as to the utility of such a measure. and drew up a paper stating their views in the matter. This they entrusted to the son of one of the New Jersey Judges, to be by him pre- sented to the Judiciary Committee of the House. for their action thereon ; and that was all. The telegraphic correspondent must have been egregiously deceived, when. out of these materials, he was induced to construct such a story of fraud and collusion. A Dickinson Movement.—We are privately informed that a majority of ten of the sixteen democratic members of our State Senate have voted in caucus in favor of Mr. Dickinsou’s claims to a seat in the cabinet. If there is no mistake in this, it is certainly a high compli- ment to Mr. Dickinson. We apprehend, how- ever, that he will not go into the cabinet, nor | yet upon a foreign mission. If the Washington cabinet-makers are to be believed, the die is | cast, as far as New York is concerned, and the hard shells must yield the wall to the softs. But if Mr. Dickinson and his set can be set down | comfortably in the Custom House, Post Otfice | and Sub-Treasury, will they not be content? Who would hesitate between the shadow and | the substance of the marrow bones?’ Who? | | Woman's Ricuts.—The Fourierite philoso- | phers of the Tribune have at length asked to | close the discussion concerning woman’s rights | without conceding to the women, as their most important right of all, the last word.

Third Day of the Cerntval, The sports and revelry, and noise aud excitement of the winter carnival are not yet over. and if we could take the sense of the whole population on the question of their continuance, we dare say they would not end for a month atleast. We thought that Thursdey’s and Fri- day's sleighing would have used up all the snow in the streets; and so far as the leading thoroughfares—Hroad- way and the Bowery—are concerned, such has been really the case. Hardly a vestige of white is to be seen, and that little consisting only of the heaps shovelled off the sidewalks on the first morning, and now standing asa rampart wall of three or four fect high, but preserving little of its native purity. The centre of the streets is swimming with an indescribable element, composed of | snow and mud, and generally kuown under the very ex pressive designation of slosh, But this, such as it is, is taken as a substitute for the real material, and through it the sleighs have been all day rattling with fall cargoos ‘of men, women, and children, as determined on sport as they have been during the past two days. But the sleighs have not, by any means, had undisputed p sion, for wheeled vehicles have made theig appearance, and though as yet far in the minority, they portend the speedy termination of the sleighing eareer. The navigation of Broadway has been a rather difficult affair, either for sleighs or wheeled vehicies, and as to pedestrians attempting to cross it, that is a feat which would require a great stretch of heroism and legs. We thought that the gamins about Canal street were not far astray when they shouted to a pretty young lady, with neat ankles, and, up to that time, spotless pantalettes, who was attempting the passage, ** Don’t venture, Marm. Ain't you afraid of being drowned?’ But she was half way across at the time, and to retreat was worse than to advance; so she rerolutely held on her course, and gained the opposite bank amid the cheers and shouts of the bihoys. In more than one respect, a sleigh ride up Broadway yesterday might not inaptly be termed navigation, The ridges of frozen snow. which crossed the street trans- versely at some six feet distance from each other, having a deep channel of slosh between them, reminded one of waves at sea, and the rising and sinking of the sleighs were as regular, and, we doubt not, as pleasant, as the motion of a vessel. We did not notice that any of the passengers were sea sick, though such a thing would not have been at all surprising, considering the rough passage. It was a regular “Here we go up, up. up, And here we go down, down, dow! —a sort of an amusement indulged in by the babies of a larger growth, amid shouts of laughter which almost drowned the tiukling of the bells. But the wheeled omnibuses, which constituted perhaps one-fourth of the conveyances, proved themselves not a whit better sailors than the hs; in fact they were much worse, and like the old round Dutch vessels, they rolled about far more than the clippers, so that their passengers must have found the motion disagreeable, causing some of them no doubt to feel disposed to be awkward. Here end there throughout the rough channel might be seen the wreck of one of these Dutch-built concerns which had Leen unable to weather it through. The sleighs gene- rally navigated successfully; sometimes, however, coming into collis hen it would be found necessary to discharge their cargo into the mud. The Colonel Baxter stuck on a shoal at Canal strect, and was unable to get off for at least half an hour, notwithstanding the inhuman exertions of her driver and conductor, who, if whipping could have effected anything in their perilous condition, would have certainly entitled themselves to the thanks of the Com- pany of Underwriters. However, after having discharged their passengers into about a foot and a-half deep of the muddy element, she righted and got oif in safety. Though Broadway was in such a condition, all the side and cross streets were in a fine state for sleighing, and were disturbed out of their ordinary quiet composure by the shouts and laughter of the merry-makers. There were more fashionable people indulging in the amusement yesterday than on cither of the two previous days; and with the bright, clear sky over head, and the balmy air which prevailed, the city presented a gay, lively, and ani- mated eppearance. Of course snowballs were an indis- pensable ingredient in the fun, and during the day run- ning fights were maintained with great spirit between the rival companies and their natural persecutors, the boys, along the route. Added to this, avalanches of snow were thrown off the roofs of the houses on the sidewalks be- low, and if no unfortunate pedestrian was baried under any of them, it was due more to the cautious look-out he must have kept than to any care on the part of the rhoveller above. To-day the omnibus sleighs will have a rest, and when the Sabbath is over, we think that the carnival will be at an end, aud— ses: sa will be the task, ly @ joy to ask, As the snow.” Effects of the Late Storm. LOSS OF THE LONDON PACKET SHIP CORNELIUS GRI EL EW BARK ESPERANZA AND TWO OT! VESSELS ASHO! In addition to the losees of vessels and life, during the late severe weather on our shores, which have already been recorded in the HERALD, we have to add the proba- loss of the London packet ship Cornelius Grinnell, Capt. Fletcher, and three other vessels, which went ashore on Thursday night or Friday morning, on Squan Beach, | during the violent “storm that prevailed then. Capt. Bullinger, who left the scene of disaster yesterday morning, informs us that it was expected the Cornelius Grinnell will be a total loss, as her back was broken, and all Ler masts gone. A letter from Squan village, dated Thursday night, to the underwriters, says,—* She is very much strained, rudder gone, is full of water, and has lost the whole or part of her false keel. ‘The masts were cut away, after which she righted and laid easier.” ‘The passengers, numbering three hundred, were landed by means of the government apparatus, and moat of them have arrived up to the city in towboats ; the remainder were at Squan village. The storm is represented as having raged with fearful violence at the time the velsels went ashore, and the landiag of the C. G.’s passengers in safety was quite miraculous, as the sea was making a clear breach over the vessel after she went on. Oving to thick weather, Capt. Fletcher had not been able to get an ob servation for some day or two previous to the disaster. He was then in the neighborhood of Nantucket. On the uight of Thursday, the weather being very bad and snow- ing heavily, he inade what be thought waa Fire Island light, and’ steered accordingly. ‘The light, however, proved to be on board of one of the vessels ‘ashore on Squan Beach ; but the error was discovered when too late to remedy, and the tide and wind earried the ship ashore.

This remarkable church, celebrated as the place where Whitefield exerted his labors, still stands in Newburyport, materially the same as when it was first built, in 1756. The same timbers which originally composed the frame still remain as sound and firm in their position as the day on which they were put together. In the north-east corner of the church is « cenotaph erected at an expense of $1,600. and presented to the society by Mr. Wm. Bartlett. It bears, among other records, the following :— “Rev. George Whitfleld, born in Gloucester, England, December 16, 1714; educated at Oxford University, and ordained in 1786. In ministry of thirty-four years he crossed the Atlantic thirteen times, and preached more than 18,000 sermons. Died, September 30, 1770.” Ina vault beneath the pulpit (the same pulpit in which he pr epose his remains, together with the two other first pastors, whove bones rest half buried in their coflins beneath the damp dust of their decayed bodies. Phrenolo, Uy, the skull of Whitefield presents no kable traits of greatness, but is marked lnrgely with goodness and benevolence. Some years ago, one of the arm bones of his skeleton was stolen from its coffin, and tor a long time was lost. About three years since, the society iceeived a small box, sent io them from an unknown source in England. ' Upon oj ening it they found the long missing bone, with the in telligence that having retained it fr | ficient time to satisfy the pleasure was now returned, as when taken, w in a mahogany box, in the pulp read in the chureh. following “This deen completed in English Neighborhood, interest at uh t .| isthe first Bible ever Upon the ‘title page is found the sible belongs to the new chureh, Norfolk street, ( ‘ederal street.)

The distance which the sound must traverse, if come ina direct line, is 120 feet, and if it follow the wall, 150 feet.
