but the history of the past affords ua but little comfort for the future. Within this century the Union has acquired.successively, the Fioridas, Louisiana, and Texas, and it is now about to acquire the Californias and some of the richest provinces of Mexico. — Who shall fix limits to the power of the ac tive race which people it? Let it once ex tend to Panama, and its might will be irresis tible. It will hold the dominion of the seas: it will monopolize the commerce ot the whole earth. And when the English language is spoken on all the shores of the Mexican Gulf, what human power will be sufficient to prevent the Island of Cuba and the E iglish Antilles from falling,by their own movement, and the impolsesof irresistible attraction, into the arms open to receive them.” Whoever will take the trouble to read the above thinkingly will not fail to discover that the editor of EL Heraldo is a philosopher in his review of the past, an enlightened obser ver of the present, and, in all human proba bility, a true prophet of the future. Female Patriotism. A letter was received day before yes terday by a gentleman in this city, from a highly respectable lady in Alabama, who requested information from him as to whom she should make application in order to be permitted to join our forces in Mexico. She says that site is determined, if possible, to do her part towards sns taining the honor of her country, and, from the tone of her letter, seems willing to enter either an infantry, artillery, or dragoon company. After this, who shall say that the spirit of J tan d’Arc has fled, or (hat the patriotism of the Maid of Saragossa does dot still burn in the bosoms of some of her six? We say, lot the lady have an appointment, by all means. — New Orleans' Delia. s ih inst. The Schr. Columbia Abandoned. Captain Harrell, of the packet ship Orleans, from New York, arrived yester day, reports that on the 17th nit., in lat. 2LL 4L), lon. 7(i J 80, at meridian, he de scried a schooner, bearing S. \V , distant about five miles, under hare poles, with the American ensign flying in the tore rigging, union down, lie ran down to and hailed her: not receiving any answer, lie sent a bout alongside and boarded her. ►She proved to be the schr. Columbia, of Philadelphia, abandoned, with the loss of mainmast, and eighteen inches water in her hold: in other respects she appeared to he in good condition, having good sails and rigging, and plenty of provisions on board. The hold and forecas le were full of boxes and bales of merchandize; there were several packages in the cabin, ap parently ale and dry goods, addressed to merchants in Mobile, to which port it was evident she was bound. Apparently she had been abandoned that morning, or the forenoon previous. There Wore several trunks on deck, all open, but containing nothing of any value. Capt. 11. placed an officer and three men on board, with instructions to proceed with her to Mobile, hut to touch til Nassau should he deem il requisite. The wind was blowing fresh from the N. N. W. at the time. lb. DC/ 3 Statement of the business on the Georgia Rail Road for the mouth of May of the years IS 1G and 1817 respectively. 1816. 1317. Increase.

Cotton. —Ar- riv. d flince the Ist inst., 3210 bales. Cleared in the same time, 6213 hales—making a reduction in slock of 2073 bales, and leaving on hand, in clusive of all on shipboard not cleared on the 4th inst. a stock of 177,655 bales. The excessive dullness and depression which had characterized the Cotton market for several days continued to prevail at the date of our last report, an 1 we left it in so unsettled a state, and «o irregular as to prices that strict accuracy in quotations were wholly unattainable. Bince then the general characteristics of the market have remained the same, though the sales have been somewhat larger in tiie aggregate than in the early part of the week. On Wednesday about 1600 bales were disposed of, at about the range of prices quoted in our last, and on 1 hursday 2000 bales were taken, the prices in most instances being slightlv more in favor of purchasers. Yes terday there was some enquiry, but we could on ly learn of sales to the extent of about 1000 bales, as there was very little cotton offering at the rates which buyers were disposed to pay, it appearing to be the determination of factors generally to sell no faster than is required by theii immediate necessities, until the European accounts by the Hibernia come to hand. These will be due here, by telegraph and express, about Tuesday next, the Bth inst., and are looked forward to with in tense interest. The total sales of the week sum up 7300 bales, of which 4600 bales were sold du- ring the past three days, taken mostly for England and die North. In icgard to the prices we find the market still so unsettled and irregular as to preclude the possibility of arriving at strict accu racy in quotations, and vve have again to remark that our figures in most instances are little more than nominal. Occasional parcels have been picked up at even lower rates than we quote, but round parcels, of a strict classification, can hard ly be bought at our outside figures. In addition to the sales there are still some shipments mak ing on owners’ account. NEW-ORI.EANS CI.ASSIFICa FION. (Assimilating to that of Liverpool.) Louisiana Mississippi.
