The war in the former, which has harrassed the country for months past, and cost the Government several millions of Dollars, and the valuable lives of miny brave soldiers and many patriotic and chivalrous young Volunteers, seems to bo rapidly drawing to a close. History has some parallels to this war and but few.

Fine. —A little after 3 o’clock this morning V our citizens were aroused from their bods by the 8 cry of fire 1 It was found to proceed from the ■ new 1J story wooden shop, at the foot of market * street, occupied by Kelly & McMillan, ns a boat M builders establishment. The building was en tircly consumed, without doing any material dam age to the small buildings near. It is probable all their tools, and a quan- ; t tily of timber were destroyed, as the combustible ® nature of the articles rendered the work of de ,•:£ struction very speedy. We were unable to ascer tain whether the place was insured, or how the pa fire originated. We copy from the Constitutionalist of this i* morning, the following remarks upon a subject, |p which may become one ofimmensc magnitude to fell this country. CUBA. We have expressed the opinion more than once, A that, if this country had another war, it would bo uion account of the Island of Cuba. Inan English paper, recently received, it is staled, that the go -11 vernment of Spain has offered to Great Britain ■J the permanent possession of Cuba, for an efficient |P aid in men and money for the purpose of subdu ing Don Carlos and his party. The English pa ll A per gives this information only as a mere rumor ; Shut there may be some truth in it; and if there fflbe truth in it, there is no doubt that Great Bri ttain would accede to the proposition, if she can ■ obtain possession of Cuba, without opposition : S' from the inhabitants of the island, and without op- Sposition from foreign powers, especially from the ■ United States. Situated as Cuba is, could we let 1 Great Britain possess that island without fighting f a for it I Could we let such a maritime power as P 1 Great Britain, command the Gulph of Mexico ! i, I The information maybe a mere rumor; but it should bo hoped that our government is wide a- Ejf wake to the consequences that would result to our commerce and navigation, should there be some ® foundation for the rumor, should the sovereignty pf, of Cuba pass from Spain to Great Britain. Georgian- Office, 7 Savannah, March 16.—3 P. M. S IMPORTANT FROM FLORIDA. The steamboat Charleston, Oapt. Donnell, ar ia rived this morning from Garey’s Ferry, Florida, H and conveys the gratifying intelligence thathos- Rfi tilitics have ceased, and a treaty had been conclu de dod with Jumper and other Chiefs. We have H been favored by several gentlemen with the fol |m lowing extracts ot letters, which induce us, at H length, to believe that a termination of this savage P and bloody warfare may be effected, and our gal- Hjg i a nt army relieved from a duty which they have ■ met with alacrity, while bleeding Florida will ob- I tain that repose, her suffering inhabitants so I much need. Capt. Hanis is the bearer of despatches, and ■ has a copy of the treaty w ith the Indians. We learn that Philip and Micanopy had not | signed the treaty, Micanopy says, that he |[ been blamed for being against the war that if ■ they made a treaty he would sign it—that Paynes ■ treaty will be recognized. ■ Extract of a letter dated « Camp hear Fonr Dade, 7 March 5, 1837. 5 “ I returned last night from a very disagreeable I and hard service of a week, mending roads. We I had a great deal of rainy weather—lt was much I worse than marching in expectation of meeting lan enemy—for then there was excitement. The I General is pretty sure of a large party coming in, I but it is very doubtful whether the others want I peace. « Jumper was in camp yesterday, and brings I word from Micanopy that he will agree to any W thing that Jumper says, and that when a day is I fixed upon he will come in with his people, their I wives, children and goods. “He says that Jumper is his sense bearer. In fact, they tell us that the Governor is an idiot, and 100 fat to come, and docs not like to leave home, and many other talcs which may or may i not be true. It is courious tliat Oscola has been invested by the ) whites with so many virtues and so mnch author- for the truth is he never has been nor is he, a chief of auy note among them, and his name is ■never memtioned unless he is inquired for. “Ho is said to lie a good warrior—has tried to risave the lives of some negro prisoners and one Express, who was killed —and has only twooi (three followers, and that his word is not more <jthan that of any good warrior among them. r “Gen. Jesup is sure of one thing, that if the other tribes don. choose peace new, enough o the Sominolcs, proffer, join him to act at , guides in this vast country, of which so little ha: V been, as yet, explored. I Twelve hostages have been living in camp so Acn days past, and others have been constantly (coming and going. All, who choose, receive rations—The Gener eral is a good negociator.” “March 5, 1837—afternoon. I have just been attendiug the talk between th head Chiefs of the hostiles and Gen. Jesup Jumper says ho will not fight any more—no can fight a whole nation like us—we are too nmnoi ous, and his feelings were hurt in finding his owi relations (the Creeks) fighting against them too. Micanopy has sent out the talk, and if any of the Indians refuse to come in they will settle it themselves. “When the General pushed him a little about ; the time of their coming to Tampa—ho said, ! that if ho agreed tohurryin.it might he sup posed they were scared, which was not the case , —they were anxious for peace and would come ■ in. “After a short conversation Gen. Jesup gave him till to-morrow evening or the next morning ' to consult his brethren and the Creeks, and giro j his answer.” TREATY CONCLUDED. ’ “March 6—afternoon. ( “Jumper, Cloud, Holatouchoy, and others have ■ just signed a treaty of the following effect. All , hostilities ate to cease from this time, and by the Ist of April all the Indians are to be south of the 1 Hillsboro, and of a line drawn East through Fort . Foster. “By the 10th of April all are to be in at Tampa ' with their families to take transports for the West. 1 All the privileges of the treaty of Payne’s landing ; are secured them, they arc to be paid for their Cattle and ponies, and to receive rations. Hostages ' remain with us, “In ten days Micanopy is to como in, ami stay where the Commanding General chooses. The ne groes that arc bona fide their own, arc also seemed to them.’’ Extract of a letter from an officer of the Army at Garey’s Ferry, to a friend in this city, dated “March 11, 1837. “ 1 understand that a treaty has been entered into with the Indians—that they agree to be ready to go west by the 10th proximo. Micanopy- is to bo kep as a hostage until all leaves.” Another letter states, that in consequence of a letter from Head Quarters “there is good reason to behove the war at an end.” * / From the Neio-Orleans Courier, March 11. \. / LATEST FROM MEXICO. * Intelligence from this country has at length been received by the arrival this morning, of the i ■ schr Creole, in 6 days from Tampico. We learn by her that a fleet, consisting of 4 brigs and 3 schooners of war, had sailed from , Vera Cruz for Matamoras, destined to operate , against Texas. Every thing was tranquil in 1 Tampico. Thcto were about 800 troops there, ' in garrison. , The Creole brings $404,300, which in this time of scarcity will bo very acceptable. Santa Anna arrived at Vera Cruz on 31st of February, where he was rather cooly received, and with no more honors than due to a common Mexican General. Ho left immeditely for hisT estate, Mango do Clavo. The ejection returns for President were. Anastacio Bustamente, 67 votes. Mamucl Gomez Pedrara, 6 “ Nicolas Bravo, 3 “ Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, 3 “ The government stands in contract with the houses of Rubio, Pedro do la Quintana, Echava ria and others, for a loan of two millions of dol lars, payable half in cash, half in paper. The above houses furnish monthly $300,000 against the revenues of the custom houses of Mala moras and Tampico. General Bustamcnte, wo arc informed, by pri vate letters, had ai rived at the* Rio del Norte, where the army is now stationed, and takes the command in conjunction with Bravo. Santa Anna, on his arrival at Vera Cruz, ad dressed the people, and assured them that his lib eration was not owing to bribery, or to any thing . derogatory to the Mexican people, but purely to f ' Who goodness of General Houston. J the Orintholooist. —It is with much pleasure we announce the arrival of this gentleman among us. He leaves here shortly in one of the cutters which our government has generously put at his disposal, to examine all the coast and inlets of our stale as far as the Sabine, to procure now specimens of birds, &c, to add to those which ho has already procured in the Uni ted States. Wo regret that Mr. A’s short stay precludes our citizens the pleasure of offering him a testimonial of their regard at the present time, while it gives us much pleasure to state that it is his intention to return amongst us in about two months, when our citizens will be afforded an opportunity of tendering that tribute of esteem which his talents and exertions in science eminently entitle him to. — I bid. Accident. —The towboat Lion, while oppo site this city collapsed one of her flues, by which one of her crow was severely scalded, and the cook killed. —lb STARTLING FACTS. The following is an extract from the Re port of Mr. Wise's Committee, to examine into the Executive Departments — « Notwithstanding the Committee refused to inquire into the appointment, and removal ol officers, yet several instances of returning cor rupt and fraudulent officers,whose malfeisance was made known to the President and Heads ; of Departments, have been proved beyond ca , vil or dispute. The clearest case of this kind, and there . could be none clearer, is the case of Joseph ; W. Reckless, a collector at Perth Amboy, s New Jersey. He was charged, on the third ■ of January, 1835, with the grossest official i misconduct, as a Collactor. The charges - were, of erabazzlemor.t and fraud, and the spe ) cifications were made. His excuses and apo logies for his misconduct were proved to bo 1 knowingly and wilfully false, before a com missioner appointed by the Department, to 1 take depositions in the case, and to report s thereon. He actually confessed himself to f be guilty of th : most serious charge of fraud, ! and offered no testimony or excuse, which could, in any respect, be considered as excul patory or in paliation. The evidence was fully reported, to the Department. A most false and exparte abstract of that testimony e was laid before the President, by the Secreta “ ry of the Treasury, containing scarcely any ol 1 the evidence, on one oftho main charges,and S only the exculpatory testimony on another. ° The President, however, as proved by the Sec t retary, and by Mr. Pearce, read all the eyi ' deuce in the case—and yet he made a decis ion, in flagrant contradiction to the testimony v of uno of the witnesses, (Brinly,) making him is acknowledge what he expressly testified to ir tlio contrary of—found that to be merely nre 2ular, which was proved and confesssd to have a been corrupt; and wfcat was more shocking t still to all moral sense, he acquitted the officer e and yet ordered him to pay back the money y which he had embezzled and defnndodthe government of, according to an account there ic 0 f by the comptroller. The amount involved r- m this case was small, being only sumo three or four hundred dollars. But thongliit was is but nutty larceny in the inferior officer, it was the grandest dereliction of duty, and injustice 0 tolhe government, on the part of hissupen -10 ors, President and Secretary. (See the en > r tiro testimony of the Honorah.e, James 1 ark. ’ c er and Win. Hook, Esq. contained m the printed Journal hereto appended, pages 1-9 le 18S inclusive. See also the testimony of of the lten G D. Wall, and Hon. D. J Pearce.) 13 This officer was detained in place, it is hardly 13 necessary to add—is, and was as stated by „ Mr. Parker, verbally, a warm and active par iJ tizan of the present and coming admntglra y tion, taking a zealous part m political moct ,r. inf r 8 and arrangements in New Jersey. Another case of precisely similar character Was proved in the instance of retaining a land ao receiver, Spencer, at Fort Wayne Indian, p. after he had been proved guilty of official I’t neglect in not making his depositee, ol ret am ir- jng balances duo the Governmcl for unreaso u vn ble periods of time, of receiving prohibited Bank notes of the drnominotion of five dollars, and of shaving the money brought to his office to purchase the public lands. (See printed documents appended to the testimony of the Hun. Bade Peyton, and his statement in rela tion thereto, hereto appended.) Another instance is the case of Samuel Gvvin, a register of the Land Office in Missis sippi, who has been repeatedly charged with the grossest official misconduct and violation oftho law in purchasing land at sales of the public lands under his superintendence; of which the President has boon informed by a reapoiisiblt person, and yet no inquiry even into his conduct has boon instituted. (See the testimony of the Hon. B. Peyton, hereto appended.) A most flagrant instance of retaining an incompetent officer is proved in the case of Herring, who was at the head of the Indian bureau. He was considered so incompetent by the Secretary of War, that the Secretary sought at the session of 1831—’3'2 to caeate a now officer, that of Commissioner of Indian Affairs, in order to supercede Mr. Herring or to take the superintendance of those affairs, from his care. He, Herring, was then receiv ing a salary of fourteen or sixteen hundred dollars; the Commisionor of Indian affairs was to receive !S3OOO per annum. The Secretary applied to the respective Chairmen of the two Committees on Indian Affairs of the Senate and House to have the law which lie drafted, passed creating the new office. The Chair man of the Senate’s Committee objected a mong other reasons, that if created, it might bo tilled with an incapable person. Pledge was given that it should he well filled. The office was created, and the same Mr. Herring was promoted to fill it by lhe Presi dent. (Sec the testimony of the Honorable rL L. White and John 8011. And it will bo found on a strict examina tion of all the testimony, that not only have prostituted political partizans; as in the case of Hooker, been appointed to office—that faithful and efficient officers, as in the rase of Melville, have been removed from office tor opinion’s sake or the want of political influ ence—that faithless, and fraudulent, and cor rupt officers, as Reckless, Spencer and Gwinn, mid incompetent officers, as Herring, have been retained in office after a full knowledge of their corruption and incompetently by the President and Heads of Depaitmenls; but that an officer has been paid for services ho never rendered, has been appointed for months before he enteroij on tho duties of lus office served during a part of that time in tho Slate, Legislature of Vermont, thus holding a State and Federal office at the same time in viola tion of the State constitution, (see the consti tution of the State of Vermont;) that all these facts were known to tho head oftho Depart ment when he allowed tho account, and that the account itself was permitted to ho filed in such form as to conceal and suppress these facts, and to suggest on its face reasons for allowing it which could not bo proved by the person to whom it was allowed.— Alexandria Gazelle, From the New York Herald. THE LOAFERS IN THE FIELD. '• A time, when all the body’s members Rebelled against tho belly.”— Conoilamu. [ignorance, folly, ambition, discontent, vul garity, are the same in every land—the same under any form of government. There is no period of public prosperity that is not atten ded with some degree of evil—all classes of the people are nut equally content—not equal ly successful, not equally industrious. The last two years in litis city have been years ot great prosperity, and groat derangement— great profits, and great losses—great excite ment, and great discontent. There lias been a general agitation in every branch of indus try, and as in other counties and other lands, tho worst materials of human nature have floa ted for a time on the top. _ After boiling over for many months, tho whole body of the loa fers in New York have held their usual riots and meetings, and are now organized as a political party determined to “ dross the com monwealth, and put a new nap upon it.” Geo. I tell thee, Jack Cade, tho clothier means to dress the commonwealth, and turn it, and set a new nap upon it. John. So ho had need, for ’tis threadbare. Well, I say, it was never n merry world in England, since gentlemen came up. Creo. O miserable ago*! Virtue is not re garded in handicraftsmen. John. The nobility think scorn to go in leather aprons. The loafers are organised. Wo have Ming, and Jacques, and Slam, and Bang, and Dang, and Hang, and Strang, and Fudge, and Budge, and Grudge, and we do not know how many thousand more, all in the field, drumming and fifeing—determined to reform society—and set a new face upon the world around them. The loafers are organized. They arc born with teeth, like Richard. Their pains of par turition were awful, as Eh Hart &. Go’s flour store can tell. Having signalized the begin ning of their great reform with an original measure to bring down the price' of flour by pouring it into the street, they are now deter mined to carry the world by storm, put in a loafer mayor, and a loafer city government, and to change the whole face of society in a little loss than no time. In every ward they arc holding meetings—denouncing the banks and crying out against the miserable rich devils, who know not the extacy of empty pockets, or tho happiness of hungry bellies. Sandy Ming and his patriots have entirely out stripped Jack Cade and his rabble in the reign of Henry VI. Cade. Be brave then ; for your captain is brave, and vows reformation. There shall ho in England, seven half-penny loaves sold fora penny ; the three-hopped pot shall have hoops ; and I will make it felony to drink small beer; all the realm shall he in common, and in Cheaps do shall rny palfrey go to grusi. And when I am kind (as king 1 will be) All. God save your majesty ! Cade. I thank you, good people there shall bo no money ; all shall cat and clnn*c on my score ; and I will apparel them all in one livery, that they may agree like brothers, and worship me tiieir lord. ... ~ , Dick. The first thing wc do, let s kill all the lawyers. „ , Our modern Jack Cade proposes the most wonderful reforms. As soon as Ming and his troops ofloafers have got hold ot the corpora tion, us they mean to do, if they can keep so her enough till that time, they intend to make \ n , v York the great Athens ofmodern times l_tho crodlikecity oftho west—the head quar ters of'mid, silver, and beef at a cent per pound, ° All the flour is to be sold nt §5 a barrel immediately, and what they dont want is to be thrown into the r.ver as useless. The loafer Mayor will take immediate possession oftho City Hall, live day and night there, have his cooks'and kitchen under way, and deal out soup and roast beef to the people without stint, and in largo ladlefnls. There will he sjlonous limes in the Park and Battery, bleep incr on the graad ami eating fat beef, will be ai?their employment. Wall street is to be boarded up, or lot for a plot to grow cabbages • and parsley iu. All the hanks and bank char ters will then como to a close—monopoly will cease forever, Sandy Ming the great 1 loafer and Jack Cade of the day, has decreed damnation to all the hanks and bank currency in the country. The paper currency will be 1 taken and used fur lighting the sugars of the loafer aldermen who, a? soon as elected, will each get a new pair of breeches from some slop shop, that will be taken under charge, as Hart’s flour store was. For the first time the banks in Wall street will then shell out spe cie—not in handfuls—hut in shovelfuls. The eagles, half eagles quarter eagles, dollars, and half dollars, will bo running up and (low* Wall street, and absolutely of their a n ac cord, going into tho pockets of the groat loaf er roibrmors. A groat reform will also take place in tho prisons ami courts of justice, thug Sing, Bellevue, Blackwell’s Island, tho city jail, will all give up their tenants, who will thencefor ward ho the great loafer lords of the city, and do nothing but promenade Broadway each with a joint of cold meat and a jack-knife in their hands eating. The Judges, Police Jus tices, Officers ami all Constables will bo clap ped into the Penitentiary, and sot to earn an honest living, cither by picking oakum or ham mcriiig stone. Most glorious times for thieves pickpockets, rogues, rioters, and loafers! — They wont steal any more, for they will have no need of it. They will never again pick pockets, for all the pockets of their rich ras cals in the city will have been picked in the first week of the new dynasty and thcrojwill be nothing to pick afterwards. The Washington and Fulton markets will ho also reformed. In three days after tho Loafer Mayor and Corporation are in power, largo fires will bn erected around the mark ets, hung with kettles tilled with fat beef for the loafers around to eat and bo joyful. The ms: ket women and the butchers, tor the legit prices, will be turned out ol their precincts neck and heels, and thence into tho peniten tiary, states prison, or either of the rivers, just as they choose, or according to (he room and convenience. But we must stop, It is utterly impossible to enumerate all tho great changes that, will take place when the Loafer ticket, aided by the Hamblin gang, will succeed in New York. At this moment there is a complete union bo ■ tween these precious squads of hickens. The penny organ of tho Loafers is managed by one of the convicts of that famous gang, and tho , promulgamator of the principles, as they cull : their ridiculous notions on hunks and ettrron i cy, are its daily topics and constant theme, i Perhaps in no country was there over a sot of men that attempted to reach political pow i or, so utterly destitute of knowledge, com i mon sense, public decency, ordinary talent, i or the common attributes of practical wisdom , as tho Loafer or Locofoco party. The ridi i cttlous trash that are found in rags on the ■ wharves sticking at the bung holes of barrels . —or sleeping on tho market stoops in snin ■ mer—or snoozing in the Park or Battery in • June evenings, have at least boon collected , together by the prime loafers, Ming & Co. and by means of tho printers and Editors of litc Hamblin gang, have elevated themselves ■ into a party, ibr the express purpose of do i tnolisliing all tho institutions of commerce and all the sources of our prosperity. Riot is organized—the mob is drilled—and the un sentonced convicts of the Court of Sessions are its advocates and supporters. These are tho men and the party that are hereafter to give law to New York, jf they can deceive a majority of the respectable voters of this country with their charlatanism. Wo doubt : their success—at least wc shall do all we can i to open the eyes oftho community. New • York is not yol ready to be governed by loaf f ere and convicts. , The Automaton Clio* Player. Tltc j. Mystery Unravelled, This automaton was invented and first ex hibited nt Presburgh by Baron Kempelen, in , 1770. The mystery remained a long time im penetrable. Master of its secret, the automa ton visited tho capitals ofGermany and France; [ every where it was received with extreme cu riosity, and often excited transports of surprise . and admiration. Arriving in Paris in 1785, 5 his star became dun before the selcbrated play- ers of the Regent Coffee House. But one can without shame, acknowledge themselves conquerrcJ by the Philidors, ami the Legale, f and yol have a brilliant career to run. On its , return to Berlin, the automaton coal longed all the Lords of the court of the great Frede ric, and was even admitted to the honor of | playing with this prince, a great aractour of chess. In a moment of enthusiasm, Frcdo , ric, at a great expense, became master of the machine and its secret; a minute account de ! veloped to him all the mistcrics of litis inno cent magic. From that time tho delusion vanished; the automaton dethroned, disdained, 1 covered with dust, was exiled to an obscure ' apartment of the palace, where it remained I nearly thirty years hidden and forgotten. It owes its resurrection, in part, to the presence j of Naoolcan at Berlin. It was taken from its obscurity, recovered its former splendor, and proud of having triumphed over the con* quoror of Auslerliz, it again commenced its . travels. London and Paris received it with renewed pleasure. Wo will pass “apidly over some years of the adventurous life of our hero. Accompanied by an exhibitor educa ted in the school of Mr. Kempelen, and al ways wonderfully aided by Ids directing pow er, without which it could not move a step, the automaton sought eagerly every occasion to distinguish itself, and never quitted the ■ battle field without being able to say with Ceaser: Veni, vidi, vici. At length, prcco- | dod by an unprecedented reputation, it arri ved at tiie court of Bavaria. There the as tonishment and enthusiam winch its play no- ( ver (ailed to excite, were renewed. So great ( was the impression it made, that Piinco Eu- ginc could not resist the temptation ol be- coming possessor of this chief d’ muvre, and to be initiated in tho occult science Which , performed so many wonders. This wish was . gratified ; and tho price of his initiation was ■ fixed at tho sum of thirty thousand francs. The time was now at hand when tho veil was to bo raised, when ho was to know tins invisi- ' ble genius, this superior intelligence which j ruled the chess-board. Ho was left alone with the exhibitor, who, for the whole explan- j ation opened botli doors of the machine at ( once ; the wheels had disappeared; a man, a true chess player occupied their place. He was scaled upon a low cricket with rollers, and seemed very ill at case. We can judge what at this sight was the disenchantment of tho new purchaser. The solution of the principal problem was reduced to a mere jug gler’s trick. These levers, these cog wheels , this cylinder were but thin paper cuttings, , placed on partitions and removed at will. i Whilst the examination of the interior rno- < chan ism took place, as the doors only opened j one after another, the player was concealed ( in the back of the automaton, his limbs folded | j under him, sometimes leaning to the opposite , side, with his head down and Ilia hands before ' him; ho thus by turns hid himself as the j doors opened alternately. One or two rope . titions were sufficient to habituate him to this exercise, and to teach him first to turn the [ cr ank for ducting the arm of the automaton, . then to put in motion the clastic spring which , was to move the fingers; and last, to pull the ' cord that the automaton might give utterance to tho word chock. The player is lighted in ' his box by a taper, and has before him a chess ■. hoard on which all the squares are numbered: , another chess-board likewise numbered, is II placed in the ceiling above his head, and forms ■ the reverse of that upon which the automaton P plays. The pccics strongly magnetised at their base, by their attraction open some little traps adapted to each square of this hack hoard. The player attentive to the rise and fall of these traps, knows precisely the move played by his adversary ; he immediately re peats this move upon Ins own chess-board; plays his own move and causes it afterwards to bo done by the automaton. Tho ingenious means invented to establish a connection be tween tho exterior ami interior of the machine alone, fixed the attention of tho prince ; per haps ho found ho had paid too dear for the secret. He said nothing, and oven amused himself a while in tho presence of some inti mate friends in playing the part of exhibitor. But that lie might enjoy 1 is knowledge for a length of time, it was necessary that a skilful player should be employed which would have soon opened all eyes and given a key to tho enigma. The prince found himself reduced to this alternative; either to employ this skil ful player or again to condemn the automaton to obscurity. He was uncertain what part to take, when Mr. M—e—l, that skilful mochan ist, who separated himself with regret from his deloved pupil, asked the favor to continue the exhibition of its brilliant talents, engaging to pay the interest of the sum disbursed. This proposition was accepted, and Mr. M—o—l, loft Bavaria and exit hited the automaton with groat success, lie was received in Franco and England like an old acquaintance of whom we just retain a recollection; it seemed to have renewed its youth, nliheugh the roiti of sorcerers had passed away, it still possosssod the power to fascinate every eye; in more simple language, it always astonished by the ingenuity of its machinery, and the skill of its concealed player. To ono or two celebrated players was confided the internal direction ot the automaton ; Mr. B—t in Paris, and Mr. I, —w —a in London, made it triumph without difficulty over all whojprcaontcd themselves for combat; when Mr. M —e—l formed the plan ot working on the curiosity ol scvcrr.l cities in England, Scotland nml Holland, whore tho automaton had never been. To accomplish that design, it was necessary to have the as sisloncc of a travelling companion who had a superior knowledge of chess ; ho proposed this plan to Mr. M., a very amiable ami lively man, who consented to accompany him, ami become his associate in the benefits of tho en terprise. The most complete success sig-’ nalized the course of our travellers. Wherever they pitched their touts, spectators gathered iu crowds to witness the combat, Tho auto maton, like a chevalier in a tournament, of fered to his antagonist the advantages of arms and ground, that is to say, in the language of chess, tho pawn am! fust move, notwithstand ing which ho was always successful. The speculation was profitable ; a perfect harmony existed between tho associates, whoso accounts were regularly soulcd with scrupulous exactness. After a while, howev er, Mr. M---o— 1 owed the player a largo sum of which under different pretexts, he de layed the payment from week to week and month to month. A year thus passed away, and Mr. M—o—l refused to settle the ac count, when M.—l found an infaloblo moans to decide it. The automaton was then in Amsterdam; the King of Holland had early in the morning engaged a fourth partol the hall and paid lor it a sum iu florins equivalent to 30,000 francs; Mr. M.—o—l ran to announce this news to his associate. They breakfasted gaily together ; Mr. M—c—l hastened to make the necessary preparations to receive tho King ; tho assembly wore to meet at half past twelve; twelve struck, nml tho player who should have been in the machine is not yet. at Ilia post; Mr. M—e—l, out of patience, went to inquire the cause of this dsluy. What is his astonishment to find Mr. M—t in bed, and trembling as with an ague fit. What do I see'! What is tho matter! I have a fever. What is that you say? you wore well enough an hour since. Yes it is a thunder stroke. The King will come. He will go away again What shall I say to him.7 That the atonm tion has a lover—A truce to your jokes. It is no laughing matter. Tho receipts ycro never better. Return the money. 1 pray you get up. Impossible. I will go call a physician. Useless. Is there then no moans of prevent ing this fever! Yes; one only—it is to pay mo the 1500 francs you owe me. Well ho it so this evening! No—no—this moment. Mr. M—e—l seeing no other alterative wont tor tho money.—Tito euro was wonderful, the automaton never piayed better. Tho King did not play, only ho advised his minister of war, who played fur him, Tho coalition were bea ten ; but tho defeat was laid entirely to the ac count of the responsible minister. Tho expe dition of onr travellers had scarcely tormina ted, when Mr. M—o— 1 engaged a player,to go with him to America. A young man, a na tive of Mulliousen,a pupil oftho best players in the Regent Coffee House, was this lime chosen fur confidant. Tho exhibitor taught him the art of concealing himself, and above all, not to make the least noise which would excite suspicion; ami finished his instructions with those words. "If you should hear lire cried, don’t move, 1 will como to your aid." The following anecdote, it is said, determined Mr M—o—l to give this advice to those ho initialed. In some of his early travels, ho was at. a Gorman city, where was a celebrated juggler, a pupil of the Conus, ami Pinotts giv ing exhibitions. The automaton soon cclips cd°tljo juggler, who piqued, and jealous, went to see his rival; guessed the secret, and aided by a confederate, all of a sudden cried “lire.” We can judge the alarm of the spectators; the automaton in his fright pushed his adver sary over ami rolled and turned himself about, he seemed to have become crazy. Fortu nately Mr. M—c— 1 had presence of mind enough to push the machine behind a curtain, when it soon became calm. Tho trick of the juggler was soon discovered, hut did him no good. His rival still boro away the palm. The automaton has spent many years in North America; he has visited successively the principal cities of the United Stales ami Ca nada, he is now exercising his talents in South America. We hopotosoe an account of his travels in the I’alatncde, a Monthly Review of Chess, published by Messrs. Bonrbonnaye & Mery.—[Translated for the Advertiser, from the French Journal he Garde National. (KHiIIURCUL. savannah, market wane'll 16.

Tho slock on sale may still bo called light for the season,particularly of Tonnosseo nml North Alaba ma Chitons, for which reason there has been very 1 little dune in ihoso descriptions Tho value of round lots of Nnshvilles, as exhibited by the low sides made, is from 131 to 131 cents, and of Alabama and West ern Districts, 13 cents. Ii is probable that the busi ness of the weak would have been larger if holders had shown more vvilliugiuis to close with the oilers made them, but in most instances they insisted on getting a retail advance on quoturiona, which buyers obstinately refused lo pay.
