Yeu seem to be poking fun at us, and seek to convey the idea that we do things upon the high pressure prin- ple. If New York would poke fun and less goods, she would find California more stable than she deems; but me—every man who has got a dollar, or who is going to ge by the board, and wants to make a desperate effort for a raise, rashes off « shipment of goods to us; and our merchants, to sustain their credit, have got to strain ‘every nerve to make a fairreturn. And if things are * done on the high pressure prineiple, it is your own wecklessness that has forced it upon ns—we have been endeavoring to sustain you. Let us alone: we can take care of ourselves. We want no goods but what we order. We can now supply ourselves with a@B the staples of life. We can live without your fulendly sid. Let us alone.

There is no mushroom aristocracy; the banker and the merchant, like the mechanic, per- their respective ladogs; quite uahte’ yoar mobility of credit, who for years can flutter beneath the bryht sky of prosperity, because credit is years, while it is months. Come to California and try your eredit without an active business spirit, and see what Californian credit is. “The descent upon the branch bank of Adams & ©o., st Sonora,” notwithstanding the act may have mot been in strict accordance to law, yet had more ef justice in it, than the present creditors will re- eeive, The money belonged to them: they placed it im their hands for safe keeping.

Atter leaving Froderick, where I remained over sight, I pursued the upbill track of the Baltimae and Ohio Railroad to Harper’s Ferry and Cumberlind ; and after the exercises of the Sabbath I find myself at almost the snmmit of a weary trayoller’s ambition, the top of the Alleghany mountains. The mountain scenery, its pure water, and invigorating air, have already lifted me upto an appreciation of the beautiful and sublime in nature. Mr. Jefferson has said that the scenery at Harper's Ferry is worth a voyage across the Atlantic, but that is because it happens to be im Virginia ; but here the sce- nery is far auperior, partaking of all that is grand and subline, while in comparison Haryer’s Ferry is bat @ step above the ridiculous. It is to nature and scenery what Wise is to statesman, “small potatoes.” There ix, by the bye, so much onterest ani excitement #1] through this region of country, at the election news from Virginia, now coming in, that the sermon of yesterday was scarcely listened to, and ‘the stated preaching of the Gospel’? seemed suspended for one Sabbath at least, for the more pressing and important news of the eloction or defeat ot Henry A. Wise as Go- vernor of Virginin, This place is the first settlement, oa tract of soma fifty thousand acres, owned by the Montivue Mining and Mannfacturing Compary, originally owned by ex-Gover nor Francts Thomas, who fixet explored its unbroken wilds and disclosed iis immense rerourcea of mincral, manu‘acturing and agricultural wealth. The Legiste- ture of Maryland passed a special! Isw incorpo. rating the proprietor and his sasociates into company for the developement of the resources of this tract of land. 1 have been bewildered and amezed at the magnitude of the enterpcice—at the immense forests of white rock white and yellow pine, hickory, wild cherry, maple, chestavt, and bemleck, with which this tract i reel. The active and incessunt labor of hardy mi jorses, and oxen, and saw mills aud other machizery, for miles in 6x:%, titrough the trect, on the railroad, has feebly struggted thus far to let ic the punlight to 2 soil unusually rich and susceptible of beiog made to produce with very lit- tle trouble erops of wheat, rye, oats, corn and po- tatoes, equal to the best bottom lands of this or any other State. The land is well watered with never tailieg streams, which, with scarcely aay real expense, can be converted to every variety of manufacturing purpose. Indeed, ] have never ssen fo large a domain, so rich in timber and minerals, surrounded with cities and market, accessible by ra!) roads in every direction, inviting capital and enterprise with such immense and certain pro‘its, as om this tract and under the liberal charter granted by the Legislatare to the Montivue Company, of whicn Hon. Francis Tho- mas is the President. The Connersville railroad from Pittsburg, connecting with the Bompshire ana Alexandria railroad, by the Montivue railroad, will make this the centre of s new and Mliumtable amount of travel and tranalt, crossing the Baltimore and Ohio ratiroad at right angles at or near this place. There several roads are partially com- pleted and all under contract, so that in a short time the dastions ot this Mo Manofacturing ard Mining ynpany will be pouring down timber, its coal and Iroc, ite bay and grain and catile from a thousand bills, to the cities of Washington, Alexandria, Georgetown, Balti- wore, Wheeling and the Valley of the Mississippi. The eminent engineers and geologists who have ex amined the country estimates the coal alone on this tract at seventy-two millions of tons, while the iron is inex. hay ble. ink of that, ye Master Shallows on the seaboard, with your lands and beeves, meagre and stinted, and lean as ‘‘P’haraob’s lean kine.’’ For men of limtted means, but with practical common sense, and a desire to emerge from dense and degenerate populations to one where pure air, water and morals, with molerate ip dustry, will yield them abondantly more than they caa ever expect to reap in an old worn out couutry—this is the place for them to come to, Fast of thie, at Cumberland, thirty-four miles on the railroad, there is also an old and well known company, known as the Cumberland Cea) and Iron Compaay domg 8 very extensive business; and at Piedmont, eight miler east of this, also on the railroad, there ia the George's Creek Coal and Iron Company, also long establisned, and doing an immense business at that place. Although ine slave State, theee is none of the black vomit to turn even the sensitive stomachs of Northera abolitionista in the aapests and atmosphere which sur- rounda this whole region of country, Indead, it partaces mors of the character of a Yankee naighborhood, where free labor and the noise of the aaw mill drowns even the voice of the slave owner. There are no slaves here—all is free aa the air is pure and juvigorating. If the thousands of mechanics and laborers out of em- ployment in large cities, and waitiog, like poor Micawber, “for somethiog te turn up,’? would but take the cars at Baltimore, and come here {n aday, and goto work, they would never be idle or in want again.

In the former, Mr. Mayor Dew, anxious to treat the world to good liquor, a5 becomes a sound temperance mas, ordered up ‘the red Bargundy, number a-thon- sand,” and made a very nice time of it. He is no better then a murderer, as every body here says, except a few of the more extravegant Maine liw men, who hold that all means are proper that shall tend to put down the Nquor traffic; and they assome that such trenchant action as that of Mr. Dow last Saturday night, 1s just the thing to ‘‘ crush out’? the oppouents of the law—by Killing them, I suppose. Wowever, he is only carrying ~U: that system of terror which the famatics have always avowe. to bea favorite one with them, and which dis- pemses with such things as trial by jury, freedom of d+ fence, Ke. Their object has loug beea to put all Kquor dealers, and, indeed, all men whodo not support their policy, hor's de la loi, and perhaps Mr. Dow's very ener- getic movement was intended to see how fer the public ia prepared to allow of « rucpencion of all law. The radicals are having thimgs all their own way in New Hampshi ‘The Legislatare, which met on the 6th, was organized withou* the least trouble. Governor Metcaif was ixaugurated on the 7th, and sent im his message on the same day, which shows that it had ‘een all cooked and peppered beforehand, which, how- ever was nothing more than proper. Itisa regular no Aarewgy ov TUM, BO popery, and Know Nothing State paper, and cuts Governor Gardner’s adiress quite out as the exposition of Americanism in New England. He ‘appears to be ready to go further than any other Go- vernor has gone in carrying out the ideas of the tem- perance men, though he does speak of the legal rights of otber people, which was probably a slip of the pen. On slavery he is ahead even of General Wileon, and the Catholics cet even something beyond purgatory at his hands. He’ll do for one year at least. The Senatorial elections will begin next Wednesday, the 13th, when the full term will be filled up, after which the place made vacant by Mr. Atherton’s death will be attended to; and in neither case will the Presi- dent’s wishes be consulted, a piece of neglect on the part of his favorite parent of which no one could have dream- ed two y ago, when mr.

It is thought the el+ctions in the organization of the Howe indicate the choice of Mr. Hale and Danir] Clarke, the latter gentleman be! of tbe rame political sentimer with the facetious Jack. Ivis not imponsible that @ feeling of hostility to Mr. Beli may have come into existence of late, in consequence of it having beem stated that President Pierce is in favor of his election. That is a sort of endorsement tbat helps no man in these days. Two days ago & very prominent democrat, and who probably understands New England litics an well asapy men living, told m» that Mr. Burke said, eight days since, to a friend, that he wi himeelf as sure of being chosen to the United Sta Senate ax if he had the credentials already in his pocket. I give the story as [ peard it, without vonching for its accuracy. The President would rather see Mr, Garrison in the Senate than Mr. Burke, and therefore that gentle- man’s election would be a source of amazing sat ction to thousands whose opioions are not in all respecte simi- lar to these which he ajvocates with so much agimation and logic. The Senate his ass! next Tuesday for an election of & United States Senator for the full term. mr. Choate is seid to have given an opinion the vew liquor law is unconstitutional im several yespects. His position as lawyer renders his opizicn valuable; but the temperauce men don’t care a copper for the cpinion of any ae a save that of the half doven who sit on the bench of the 8u- preme Cour® if those grave gentlemen should riddle the law as badly asthey diithat of 1852, they would feel ugly indeed. Meanwhile, the law, like death, Doth ent down all, Both great and small. But the supply of liquor continues to be quite ap lo the demand, and there’s cheating somewhere. Tne expres: es bave ceased to carry any into the country, and, deed, they would not be pormtted to carry it by tae railway directors, were they minded to do so. But they supphed pretty mush every body before the 20th of May. Ie lncalonlated that. qa maacb liquor was taken out et Boston, between the day that. the low was passed and that cn which it went into effect, as woula suffice to supply tbe whole population for two years, or up to the time that the Supreme Court is expected to hang the pew statute on the same gibbet to which it assigned the Id one. > The New Hampshire Patriot, through its Washin; correspondent, intimates that Colonel Greeneis to have the place of Envoy to the Court of St James as soon as Mr. Fochapan shal} come bome to renew his search atter the great carbunsle, which he will never fini— that is, the Presidency. The appointment woull be a hetter one than the average of diplomatic avpointments that bave been made under the present administration. Colovel Greene is a man of fine mannérs and command- ing appearance, and has an exqusite tact. If he can manage diplonrstic business as wellas he can that of party politics, he would make agood Minister. I do not attach much importance to the telegraphic denial of the accuracy of the Patriot's statement, ac that paper weald not be likely to say anything about #o important a matter unless it had some authority for domg #0. A military gentleman has a'resdy gone to Washington to et the Colonel’s present place—that of Naval Officer. je was an applicant for the situation in 1858, ani @hen Colonel Greene got it he declared, somawhat bitterly, that “ink went a damn sight farther than blood,” which inn new reading of the old saw that the pen is mightier than the sword. The number of recruits obtained here for the Englieh rervice is said to be about one thousand. The Uaited States suthorities are determined to put @ stopto the business. An all the men enlisted are foreigners by birth, we ought to be glad to see them go, considering how foreigners are now looked upon. Russe might compla’n, but would probably be appeased if she ware allowed to open recruiting offices alongside those of the Foglish. I presume that the thousend men spoken ot include those who have been obtained elsewhere, but were shipped bere for the Provinces. Governor Gardner, without solicitation, has appointed a Scotch gentienien of the name of Carruthers, residing at Salisbury, a Justice of the Peace for Essex county. This is eld io indicate that his Excellency is about to overbid Gen. Wileon for the foreign yote. The tienera! can only say what ought to be done for foreigners. The Governor can do something for them. 1 do not know how much truth there is in the story of Mr Albert Morgan baving had $120,000 left him by a0 English gentleman of the nome of Brskine, in requital of the care which was taken of him by Mr. Morgan and his famiiy when he (Erskine) was sick of the small por, at the Pavillon Hotel, in Gloucester, half a dozen years ago. There is ech improbable in the story, andl hope it is true, but fear it is mot. Mr. Morgan is a printer, and 2 very good fellow. One hunéred ani fifty subscribers to Profsssor Agas- siz’s great work have already been obtained ia Boston, and perhaps as many more will be got. Five hundred is the whole number required, and New England alone ought to be good for that number. ALGOMA, Our Louisiana Correspondence.

Last evening, about half-past 10 o’clock, ary of help, wateb, &c., was heard in the visinify of the Metropoli- tam House, whieh is situated on the corner ef Broad acd ‘William streets, in this city, A man ran into the saloon door in the basement, and announced that » man had fallen from one of the upper windows, and had plunged headlong into the sub-cellar. He immediately set off up the street. Several persons repsired to the spot, and found a man horribly impaled on the iron railing, which he bad broken by the force of his fall. He was speedily released from his situation and taken into the vestibule of the hetel. Dr. Eyrick was called to his arsistance; ‘but life was extinct. He was dreadfully mutilated. His skull was fractured, his thigh and arm were broken, sad his left leg was terribly lacerated. When found he was banging head downwards, his leg being pierced through by the iron spike. At 11 o’clock this morning, Dr. Milton Baldwin, ths Coroner, held an inquest ever his remains. The first witness that was examined wass sub-clerk named Meigs, who testified that the deceased first visited the house on the 6th day of April last, and registered bis name on the books se Louis Leibenstein. — for Seoford’s Philadelphia Opera troupe; he left ai ly afterwards, apd returned en Wednesday last; he stated that hg had had a strove of paralysia; that he was una- dle to register bis name. and requested the assistant i afternoon, just re 2, ured of the landlord if be could have tea, af- ter tea be returned,and exhibited additional symotoms of wildness of manner, and stated to the clerk that he bai no desire to live since he had lost the use of his hend; he then sang 4 verse of one of his native songs; he in- quired if he could have some Jaudanum, stating that he had had no sleep for two Lay men, was refused him, when he quietly retired for the night to his room, om the third story, protesting before he left that he was neither or crazy. Samuel Nichols was called.—He testified that when deceased was first seen b; he was hanging by the leg, and bis head was pia cellar; he aasisted in taki ati ing him off; he only gave one groan—then all was Dr. Eyriok was called. This witness testified that he made a jal examination of the body of the deceased, but on ing life to be extinct, concluded to waive a further examination until the arrival of the Corouer. He examined the room wh'ch the deceased occupied: he found the bed clothes but partly turned down; a coat, vest, ts and var of boots, also s fashionable hat made by Straten, North Sixth treet, Philadelphia; from the width of the casement it was evident to him that de- ceased went out of the window designedly; in his fall he broke a light of glass in the window beneath. The ex- swipation closed and the jury retired. Ina few minutes they returned with the following verdict:—‘‘ We find that deceased, Louis Libenstein, came to his death by jump- ing or falling from the third story window of the Motre- pelitan House, on Thursday evening, while laboring under s temporary aberration of mind.” His body was taken im eherge by the Coroner, and was buried this evening. One of the clerks in the house stated subsequently that be had conversed with him curing the afternoon previous, and found that bis mind was wandering. a that he was a pative of Poland, and had been conuected for some time with Sanford’s tronpe as an agent and performer. He was not observed to use intoxicating fiquors. Our Charleston Correspondence. Cuan.zston, 8S, C., June 7, 1855. Tniversel City Dullness—The Temperance Convention— The Lodges and Cause in General—Cold Water in Geor- gia—Delegates and <Addresses—Mercantile Affairs— Meetings on ’Change. It is impossible for a barbarian to conceive of the in- tolerable and wretched dullness that has existed in the midat of all that pertains to Charleston these weeks past. Iet that man count himself happy, whichever direction unhind fortune entices his steps, so that his beat is not a hither beat. Everything is positively stupid. Banks and boarding houses refuse accommodation, except at the very highest prices and with the very best securities. ‘There is no longer a drought for people to talk about, and the new p‘easant weather and the past rain have vecome almost as stale subjects of conversation as Mr. Horatio J. Perry’s letter or the Virginia election returns" The theatre shops are all shut up, Miss Kate Saxon having left a week ago, threatening Shaker peace at your unsophisticated inhabitants of New York city. Men begin to walk with umbrellss, each day earlier in the morning ; black nigger wenches have bawled black” berries too long about the streets ; the Post Office fur- nishes you with letters three hours after the arrival of the mail; more ugly women than ever come out upon the sidewalk at the close of the afternoon ; and, in fact, ke., ke, £0, to me, it isa grateful relief that to day a tempe’ ance pow-wow has broken in upon our monotony. It éidn’t matter what should be the occurreace, so that it were not in the ordinary course of Charleston events. And there seems to me really no reason in the world why the ‘‘ National Division of the Sons ef Tem perance’’ should not effect a demonstration as well as other bodies not half so numerous and respsctable have done before them. The Nat Division is to be c dered in making notes of Palmetto localities and apper- taming appurtenances. As I am informed, there are some eighty iodges, tents, divisions, or whatever you call them, in tke State, and there cannot be less than from two to three thousand of the initiated. During the 1 ending the 31st of December last, 530 had seen ight for the first time, but perhaps it is just to mention that in the same time 121 withdrew from the fraternity; 65 renewed membership; 158 broke the ; 20 ditto second time; 40 sij over; 309 were ex; 109 were suspended, and 19 died. I cannot stop to do #o large a sum in subtraction as would be necessary to determine bow many of the original 530 would remain after these several numbers were taken away; but Ido not believe there would be a In excuse for the acknowle: small prosperity of the Order during the last year, extraordin: barrasamente and the ex ary commercial em! treme severity of the winter just over, are 5; but whetber such conditions in the disposition events will account well for the number of is more than 1 can teil. Since the orening <i the year, the Order seems to have been more successful.

THE LATEST. [From the Chronicle of the same date } The bearer of the new Austrian propositions arrived in Paris on Saturday evening last, and they were com- municated the next day to tne proper cfficials. The Vienna correspondent of the Constitutionnel, writ- ing on the 19tb, furnishes some indications as tothe pature of these propositions, which, both according to the Constitutionnel and ‘Cae own aaa it, appear ightly, or in form only, from those Penick Rossa bas alre: rejected.
