«SCTW—r«n—gg— pt ArFscriNo Incident at St. Kii.da.—li is well known that the “trade of 'g’gitig” is carried on with most fcttrful adventure, in many portions of the old wor'J. 0.1 Iho nig. ged shores of Scotland, in Uic Shetland Ulus, amid the Needle rocks of ihe Isle of Wiifht. and nl Garrick-tt-Reade, in Ind.-.r'l where “the incessant wearing of waves,” or smnw •nightly convulsions ol nature, through suc cessive ages, have < lit off immense ragmt n's of rocks, the sea-birds had mi listurbeidy built their nests until the "egging business’’ induc ed Uic adventurers in their perilous feats of botty. They usually swing themselves est by a rope, and descend a craggy pro ij. ee of hundreds or tect, sometimes bounding lro;n crag to crag with us much apparent case as tlic sea tiwfr (bemsolvrs. At St. Kdda. t!«o westernmost speck of an island in the Atlan tic, the ropes are made of hide nr the hair nl a cow’s tail, sometimes two or three hundred feel in length—and they have been looked upon of so much value, ns to become the mar riage portion of a Si. Kd.la girl. '1 he (earful adventures encountered by the St. Kthli ts MO numerous and thrilling. In one case, a father and two sons were out together, a;.d having firmly attached their rope at the sum mit of a precipice, descended on their it mil occupation. Having collected ns many birds and eggs as they could carry, they were all three ascending by the rope—Urn eldest of the sons first—his brother a fathom or two 1 clow him; and (ho father following last. They had made considerable progress, when the elder son looking upward, perceived the stands of the mpo grind.ng against ft sharp edge of a rock, and gradually giving way. Hi immediately reported the alarming (act. ‘Will it hold together till we can gain ike summit 1’ asked tho father.—‘lt will not hold another minute,’was the reply;‘our triple weight is loosening it rapidly !’ ‘Will it hold one!’ said the father, ‘it is ns much ns it can do,’re plied the son—‘even that is bu doubtful,’ ‘There is then a chance, at least, of one of us being saved : drawn your knife, and cut away below !’ was tho cool and intrepid order ol the parent. " Exert yourself—you may yet escane, and live to comfort your mother!’ There was no lime for discussion or further hesitation. The son looked up once more, hit the edge of the rock was culling its way, and the rope had nearly severed. Tho knife was drawn—the rope was divided and his father and brother were launched into eternity ! The old Srao.—A couple of blades once met u Vermonter at a tavern. They hud heard much of Yankee ingenuity and dinning, and they soon determined to see if they could not "come round” this son ol tho Green Moun tain. Thinking he would bo careful of his coppers, they proposed to him in the course of the evening’s chat, that each at them should propose and do something which the other two should imitate, or on tho rofural of either so to do, ho should pay nil the damages Ihe others might sustain, and the scot nl the bar. The Vermonter was « little wary at first—bin at length consented. One of the Yorkers com menced the game. lie pulled off his emit, walked up to the lire und threw it on. 1] s companion did the same. The Vermonter, as they had agreed, must do so too with h.s cnat, or pay for the other two coats and the scot. Without hesitating off went tho gar ment on to the fire. The other New Yorker next made the trial. Ho off bools and ha', and consigned them to the 11 lines. IDs com panion imitated him, and to their astonish ment, the Yankee was not backward. Now came tho Vermonter’s time to lead. “ Land loid, is there a doctor near!”—“Yes, sir,” “Send for him.” The gentlemen of York began to stare. Tho doctor soon came in. "Doctor," said the Vermonter, “get your instruments, I waul you to pull out every toolh in my head, and those gentlemen will proba bly want the same done with I heir’s.” At the name time he began to nviko roadv for tho operation. The doctor und tho other two were confounded. “ Gome, doctor, don’t wait,” ami soiling open his mouth, ho dis covered to the company that ho hid in his head but one old snag, which would hardly keep in Ins head. It was presently out. The Yorkers wisely declined following suit, paid the Vermonter lor his coat, hat, ami boots, and went off very quietly to bud.

A voter, sadly deficient in personal beauty, said to Shciidan, “Sir, I mean to withdraw my coun tenance from you.” “Many thanks for the favor," replied the candidate, "for it is the ugliest mug I ever saw.” THE “ PERPETUAL MOTION. This miserable humbug, which has been far some weeks puzzling the brains of our citizens, and testing the veracity as well as credulity of our neighbor, has at lasi, we trust received ’ its quietus. On Friday last, a committee of geollemen, at the request of the exhibitor,’(Dr. Suinglellow.) proceeded to examine his" self-moving machine," nndcr a promise from him that it should be all taken apart for their satisfaction. Several pieces were detached, and again replaced, and the thing slopped or moved as the exhihiton wished. As far aa’appcarci] to the eye, all wWplain—no trick, no secret spring no connection with any moving, principle, could be detected; and the committee were about to retire satisfied that it was in re ality what it purported to he, a self-moving mach ine—When, unfortunately for the Doctor, an old rat on the committee suggested the propriety of “cutting into that are platform,’! This liberty w»« bluntly refused, and the meeting broke up. Tho next day, Mr. Houghton having comple ted his imitation of a "perpetual motion,” made a public exhilmion/if it at the court house.

If South Carolina expects to carry through her great wotks and to sustain them—if she expects to keep even pace with tho rest of the Union in tho course of improvement, sho must not be de pendent on other Slates far the science which such efforts require. Our own young men must be educated for tho purpose. The Military Schoul at West Point cannot supply one tenth of the engineers which will be required; and besides, the education there is so much of it military, that at least two years are lost to those who intend to confine themselves to civil engineering. Other Stales have found it necessary to erect Schools for this purpose; Kentucky has a school for 'Engi neers at Georgetown; Ohio at Cincinnati, and In dians nl Madison. In those, young men are taught French, drawing, mathematics, and engi neering, and in two years complete their course, so lhat with two subsequent year* in the field on a canal, rail road, or other improvement, under a skilful' ciigiiieerj the practical as well as theoreti cal part of the science is well acquired. One who is well advanced in mathematics and French can be prepared for tho field in one year—the two years afterwards employed in some work, will cost the student nothing hut his clothes, as ht« services will entitle him to his support and expenses there. It will thus be seen that this course of education will he attended with less ex pense than any other professional one; and no other promises as great remuneration as this. The time for South Carolina to act in this matter is most propitious. Extensive works are about being undcilaken in this and the adjoining States, whore a wide field for improvement in this science will be open, and where sj ill and in . thistly will be amply rewarded. These considciations have suggested the follow ing plan. The Rico Creek Springs are now un occupied. There are good buildings there to ac commodate the teachers, a steward, and at least sixty students. The situation is central to the Stale—is retired, and as healthy as any in the United States. Tito place contains about three - hundred acres,—which, with all the buildings, , can be purchased for $2,800 and 81,200 more will put it in repair and supply the necessary ap paratus for the school. Four thousand dollars, ■ therefore, must be raised, and it is proposed to do this in shares of two hundred dollars each. The association will then consist of twenty gentlemen, under whoso direction the school will be. They w ill appoint the principal teacher, prescribe rules fortlie government of the institution, and fix tha rates of tuition and laiard. Tho principal may he permitted to engage his own assistants, and rely on the fees of tuition for bis remuneration. The benefit to the contributois who purchase the place will bo the preference they will have to name students for admission into the school. It , is expected that at least forty students will enter their names as soon as it is known that Ihe plan is perfected and competent teachers engaged. Uni to ascertain what number of students may be depended on, gentlemen wishing to send are requested to drop a lino to one of the undersigned ns soon as possible, as it is desirable that the school should he opened by the first of May. 1 hero is no doubt ; that Ihe association can bo formed, and measures are taking to engage com petent teachers.

Lord brougham, who presented one with 14,000 signatures, expressed a hope thalthe measures in preparation by the government, would be satisfactory to the petition ers. In the Houae of Commons, on the same day, a member inquired whether any steps had been ta ken, relative to the seizure of the brig Vixen by the Kusaians. Lord Palmerston answered that the matter had been submitted to the King's ad vocate, and the government was waiting for his opinion. He was able to aay, however, with rea ped to tie toll at the month of the Danube, that the Russian government would throw no impedi ments in the way of British vessels.

It was moved by Mr. Hume, and supported by Mr. O’Connell, and opposed by Sir Robert Peel and the Chancellor of the Exche quer, on the ground that it would delay the re. port of the committee, which it was important to have brought in immediately. On the 3d, in the Housp of Lords, Lord Brougham inquired whether there would be any ol jection to abolishing the punishment of death in cases of forgery, and Lord Lansdowne said he would consult the home secretary on the subject. In the Commons, a petition against the vote by ballot was presented, from a meeting called to petition for the vote by ballot.

And the motion was agreed to. At a subsequent day, however, it was reconsidered and rejected, at the request of Lord Palmerston, who said that he had assented to the motion by mistake ! SPAIN. No movement yet by either of the hostile armies but preparations making. The Span ish force to join the British under Gen.

From the New York Evening Post, March 17. There has been a general panic in Stocks to day, occasioned by the failure of a large house, J L. Joseph & Co. The circumstances have created an unusual degree of excitement, ns the house is under an immense amount of liabilities. A great many stories ate afloat re-pccting the a mount of their liabilities and assets—at any rate, no statement has yet been made, ns it yrould lake some time to do so. Tho members of the firm arc Joseph L. Joseph, Solomon I. Joseph, and Moses Henriqucs. The immediate: ca«se of their stoppage is said to be tho large amount of bills returned from the South yesterday, which cemc upon them all at once. It is reported that the failures in New Or leans, in which the house was concerned, were known in Philadelphia the day before ycsteiday, and that Mr. Biddlo iminediaeiy for warded notice to the Joseph's, with nn offer ol assistance to the amount of r million, if they would give security. But the linn wanted two and a half millions, which could not be furnished. To-day a meeting of the principal creditors of the house was held, attended by several Bank Presidents, who agreed that the amount required could not he furnished. The stoppage is, there fore, in all probability, final. But it is-satisfacto ry to learn that the loss will fall very slightly on New York. A’ca) York Commercial Advertiser, March 17.- Wall Street, IS o’clock. — The present is the most gloomy day in Wall st. for years. The news from England yesterday, of a farther de cline iti cotton, and of the bad state of the mon ey market, has had a sympathetic cftect on our own exchange. Added to which, is the re-action of the deplorable condition of thing* at the far South. Wc have been told that from many pla ces at the Smith, hardly any thing is now paid ; | and for scvctal days past, immense amounts ol ( protested paper have been coming back upon the drawers. There have been several recent fail ures in Ibis city, ot which no public mention lias been made ; but the suspension ofthe extensive house of the Messrs. Josephs this morning, has caused a sensation which it would be idle to con ceak We learn that they had an offer of a mil lion from the Bank of the United Stales, but ; judged it best to stop for the present. The fall of stocks is very great. i£j- (Ist. O’clock. —let not the public sup pose things ate worse than they arc, or that there is any thing like a general crash. The case of the Messieurs. Josephs, thus far is rather one of suspense than a failure. A house at New Orleans has failed, having a million of the funds of the Josephs. But the latter have the guaran tee of another house for a million; and if this house has not failed of which there is no certain ty, the Josephs will go on. And if not, negotia tions are on foot, which may effectually relieve them from existing embarrassments. It is not i believed by many, that there will be any mercan tile failures in consequence of this event. Office ofthe Journal of Commetcc, 7 NEW YORK, March 17, 2P. M. 5 Monet Affairs. —Wc arc sorry to say that the State of things in Wall street is most uncom fortable. It will beseenbythe sales at the Bro kers’ Board that panic reigned there, some stocks going down eight or ten per cent below the low point to which they had previously fallen. The condition of things at the Board was in sympa -1 thy with the feeling out of doors. The largest 1 ingredient in lit* cup of alarm which this day has f added, is the suspension of Messrs. J. L. & S. s Joseph & Co. whose immense business affects ! directly or indirectly a great number of persons. This house has long been one of great credit and usefulness in our city, and intimately connected with several otter great houses, particularly of Jews, both in this country and Europe. One of these was Herman, Briggs & Co. of New, Orleans • the news of whose failure reached tho city ycstcr l day. , Tho engagements of Herman, Briggs & Co. • wore enormous, being for the thirty days succeed ; ing their failure, not less than three millions of dollars, or more than a hundred thousand dollars • daily. The originator of this house came to N. Orleans some twenty years ago with a pedlar’s ■ pack on his back, soil is said, but rapidly amass- I cd a princely fortune, and with his partners retir • ed from active business a few years ago, leaving ■ thetr names and responsibility for the use of the f junior Herman and talented business gentlemen , with whom he had associated himself. A, main part of their business was that of fac t tors for the cotton planters and interior dealers. 1 Those who are acquainted with this business, know t how immense the acceptances of these factors are in anticipation of the arrival of cotton. When the cotton trade goss oft', as it has for several years i past, these acceptances arc easily met by the sales ■ of cotton as it arrives, but if the cotton fails to arrive , or cannot be sold, or the bills on Europe and the L northern States in which it is common to make ■ payment, cannot be negociated, tho state cf tho > Rise is very difljrcnt, and this is the stale of the case at present. | For this house, Messrs. Josephs are understood to be at this moment under acceptances to the . amount of one million four hundred thousand , dollars, a sum 100 great to be taken up under the circumstances, even by a house otherwise of great wealth. The letters from New Orleans to , the Blh of March say that the banks, except (wo. had agreed to sustain Herman & Co., and a meeting was to be had on the 9th, to see whether all tho banks would not come into the plan of re lief, It is hoped therefore that the next news will be a resumption of payment. Under these circumstances, Josephs’& Co. call ed a meeting of their friends this morning who have advised that they should suspend until Mon day. The sympathies of the public are particu larly excited in their behalf, for it is only within a few days that the most active partner of the house buried nn only son; on Tuesday their ex pensive banking house was a heap of ruins, and now their great mercantile credit is also pros trate. We understand that by'the’exhibit of the Messrs" Joseph & Co. this morning, it was concluded that two millions and a hall were necessary to carry them through. The U. S. Bank offers them one million, on condition that the rest can be procured elsewhere. The general impression is, that no loss can finally result to the creditors of Herman, Briggs A. Co. but unless they and the other houses here and elsewhere, associated with them, can go on, the derangement must produce great inconveni ence. Marine Intelligence. DEPARTED.
