was reading to the jury a romantic love lettea.

silence pervaded l(ie court—when some body j
iu the gallery gave a long, loud and shrill ;
ehout—“JosM!” It was electrifying. The
defendant whoso name was Joshua, sprang
upon his feet and looked around.—the lawyer
paused- *oe jury stared—and I directly or
dered the officer to take llio offender into cun

But alter much ineffectual anarch the design

gut on aa usual until the jury returned with a
verdiot, and the clerk wus going through the
appropriate forms of interrogstion. ‘
“Gentlemen of the Jury, have you agreed
upon a verdict.”
Answered hy the foreman, “Wu ha\>,”
“Who shall speak for'you!"

On tin* occasion the officers wore more
a'icccssftil, and (lie disturber uni'at length
brought before mo. lio was a thin, dried up,
eailor looking person, with sandy hair and
very red whiskers. Hiacyea protruded from
their sockets like a lobster's and acemod to
roll with the fierce mas of insanity. Ilia fare
waa yellow and wrinkled, like a Dighy herring
—in tact he smelt of the smoko house; and
hia whole appearance was somewhat “ancient
and fish hba.”
“Who are you?” was demanded of him
Nkoe-hl!" waa tho reply, in a prolonged
tone, as if addressed to some person ol a great
distance.
“Thia man." I observed, taking offmy glas
ses and laying down my pen, “appears to bo
out ofhii souses. Duo’s any otto know him!"
One of thu deputy Sheriffs took the aland

the town, end in body could tell hia mime, or
from whence he Came. A lew- nights ago ho

bounds of tho circuit, it was sumo time in
JJuly that 1 started in the East port packet, in
,company with Col. Clark, a tfUtinguiaed offl
.eerin His Majesty’s army, whom 1 now see
present! It happened we were passing a
.schooner, near thu Seal Islands, when a man
*t the mast head of the vessel, waved hia hat,
and akouted Josh, as if from a speaking trum
pet. 'There was a peculiar laugh among the
sailors. “Halloo,” said one, “he hast not
fonod ijoali yet."
“Slot never will, replied another, whoso
name waa Pruuly.
Uy attention waa immediately arrested. Po
cahontas, Porcupine, Josh, and the confusion
of the'Court —tho whole scene before narrated
rushed at once in my mind.
“Pray what person is that who spoke us! I
inquired.
“Why* aaid Prouty, “he has been sailing^

The next day the wind changed in the
Southwest, snd the clouds came sweeping to
wards us, over the sea. like the dark wings ol
an iinmeiiau bird. It was impossible to make
a harbor, and we «tood olf more from lhe
shore. Whilst we were enveloped in this ob
scurity, which was utterly impenetrable to
i the vision, I distinctly heard again the cry of
I Josh! It sounded through the mist, like (he
! wilk shriek of a seu-gul).—EV( ry body <ui
j board looked in the direction ot the sound, but
I nothing could be Man, In the course of the
I night ttie wind changed; and the fug slowly
J retreated before it, and we pursued onr way
1 over the trackless waves.
The next day, towards night, we poshed
{into the harbor of Mt. Desert, am) anchored,
1 for the weather again looked tbrenimng.—We
: went ashore in the boat, at a (sliding called
Barns’ Rest. .Sovend or'tltc passengers smue
ed themselves by picking wi d strawberries,
and some of us rambled into the woods, nncl
wera followed by a large Newfoundland di>g,
I »s big as a bear.—Whilst m the pine forest,
singular as it may seem, we heard a prolong

back with Cflfosidernblc precipuion, and 1 ob

at Owl’s Head. Here were a party of old
i “Dingbat" from B mgor, whl> were amusing
themselves with a field piece. 1 inquired ■if
i the cry of “Josh" had ever been heard in their
i city, and was told the same mysterious being
. of whom so much has been said, was there du-
I ring the laud fever, and at the first auction

THE RESULT IN MAINE!
A ETA it IN THE EAS T!
"Now let the kettle to the trumpets apeak; the
trumpets to the cannoneers without; the cannons
(o the heavens."
For years, no election has taken place
in the country, in a which deeper interest
has been excited, than in the recent contest in
Maine. We have rarely witnessed in this ci
ty • greater anxiety to learn the issue ot a
political struggle, or expericncud such mani
festations of joy and satisfaction at tho result.
The present critical condition of thu country
—the position assumed by the dominant party
—(lie agrarian doctrines promulgated in (ho
President’s message, and a pamtnl anxiety to
know what would be the immediate effect of
dial promulgation upon the great mass of the
people—formed a combination of c.rcuuisiun
ccs, winch rendered the recent election in
Maine one of the highest importance, and the
most absorbing interest. Tne result has been
indeed suspicious. It must inspire with re
newed hopes < ho friends of our republican in
stitutions. Maine has risen as one man to i
rebuke the administration fur tbeir pernicious
measures, and stilt mure pernicious threats.
The evil spirit lias gonu out ot oar sister
Sjiute. She is exercised—regenerated disen
thra.ledl
The administration have managed, for the
last Byears, to keep a disciplined majority in 1
Manic of more than hkvcm thousam*. Tliu
number liasoccasionally lieenjuiore and tome- '
tunes less; but the V. Boren parly have al- i
ready possessed in that Stale the advantage
ot regular ami paid troops over a raw and vol- .
uuteer militia. The utmost confidence bus
been expressed by the administration papers, 1
that they would still retain Maine in the tra
ces{ But thanks to Mr. Amos K -ndali's Ex- I
press mail, the President’s message was circu
lated throughout the State a day or two be- 1
fore Hie election. The people'raw that the '
charge of loco-focoism made by the Whigs I
against the administration wa# no longer a j
' fallacy or a fthimera. Tut Patai»i>T in* i

WILLIAM J. RHODES.
No sot of public officers, who have been honor
ed with lhe government of Georgia, ever looked
forward to an election with such tear and trem
bling as those who now infest the State House at
Millcdgcville. None certainly, have ever socom
plctely abandoned their appropriate duties, and
turned the whole power and patronage of (heir
olftees and the Treasury of (ho Stale into election
eering machines In order lo ensure the success of
the par’y whiih keeps them m power. Wo have
seen tho Governor, under the pretence of super
intending the locetio/i o. the Western Hail Road,
making two tours into the Cherokee counties—
travelling front family to family; attending bar
becues and making electioneering speeches, ami
finally rasing a regiment of men at an expense to
tho Sttlo of 30 or 40 thousand dollars per month,
to parndo through these counties with no other
real object in view hut to electioneer for himself.
It ia pretended that this force his been raised lo
protect the citizens of that country from appre
hended 1 hostilities of the Indians, who arc already
unarmed, powerless, submissive end peaceable in
the last degree. In order to give plausibility to
this imposition upon the people, wo doubt not
that all sorts of outrages will be inflicted upon the
poor Indians in Ihe hope of driviog them to mad
ness, and should some poor creature, gnarled by
the tyranny of this military hand, open his lips
to give utterance lo a groan, we shall hear the
most dreadful aecounts of Indian hostilities. We
caution the people to believe no stories they hear
from that quaiter before the election.
Hut while our patriotic Governor has been thus
laboring at the people’s expense lo secure his own
election, the Secretary of Slate has been making
a tour lo feellho pulses ot the people in the south
western counties in the direction of Lee, Ran
dolph and Baker. Gen. John Bates, Principal
Keeper or the Penitentiary, has been sent on an
embassy lo the people of Hall, and tho redoubta
ble Col. Win. N Bi-hop, haa been despatched on
a mission lo Forsyth and Murray counties, where
he gave harbacues and made speeches in behalf ol
his patron and friend, Gov, Schley, We esk who
1 paid for these harbacues! la Bishop so rich that
he can entertain whole counties with eating and
Ldi inking and making merry! No! While he was
thus feasting the people of Murray, his brother
was serving notices for him on sundry merciants,
and other creditors, to whom ho is in debt, that
he war preparing lo pay oIT their demands by ta
king the Aeries I debtor’s oath of insolvency.
In tho .816011111110, while these very attentive of
ficers are bamboozling the people in different di
rections, each receiving his pay flam the Treasury
of tho Slate, tho Treasurer and Comptroller Gen.
e ral are snugi'y quartered at Milledgoville, pocket
ing their 52000 per annum, and editing two of
tho most violent and abusive party papers in the
Slate. We ask the people if this is not a pretty
picture* We esk if these are the duties Georgia
expects from her public officers! If they are, then
sanction them by re-electing those officers ; if not
then hurl them from the places which they cm.
ploy fur (heir own personal aggrandizements! the
public expense. Let ev cry man who thinks that j
the high officers of Slate should disdain lo dea- j
cend to the huckstering ol petty paitisans, fail not
for any consideration to attend the polls on Mon- {
day next,and then and there put the seal of bis re* >
probation upon such con duct at the ballot box.
THE DIFfEREN^eT
Just before the opening of the present extra
session of Congress, Ihe Secretary of the Treasrr
ry addressed a letter to the Clerk of the House of
Representatives, informing him Urn he had pro.
cured a sufficient quantity of ye Id, with which he
intended to pay off members of Congress, their
wages. Just after the meeting of Congress,a hi »-
ker. by (be name of Noursc, informed “members
of Congress and ethers,” through the papers o*
Washington, that he was prepared to give the
highest prices for gold and silver. Gold com
mands a premium nf 10 percent, and therefore
every member of Congress, receives, 8 dollars and
80 cents per day, instead of 8 dollars. Other j
public creditors are paid MT in paper i

WASHINGTON, Sept. SO, 1537.
The annexation of Texas is the subject mailer
of nearly two tit hds of all the petitions and mem
orials that have hern presenled lo Congress dur
j lug this session. A gT.vat many were presented
r lo both houses to day retE'ifOstraling against such
a measure and were all laid it'l the table, accord
ing to Ihe rule without being reail or referred.
lo lemil the duties on certain goods destroyed
by file in tho city of N York, which was rc.id and
ordered-a second reading. The Sub-Trcost *v
j Scheme, was then brought fully before this body,
II in tllu shape of the bill imposing additional duties
on public officers, as Depositories in certain ca
ttes, or the Divorce Bii.l as it has been “afled.
Mr. Calhoun took occasion to move as an ad
j ditinml section of this Bill, the amendment on

Mt.W ight,ofN. Y. suggested some modifications

novel spectacle to see Mr. Calhoun and Silas
Wright leaning over tho Sectetary’s desk in close
consultation about this fundamental measure of
policy. I gave'you on Monday tho substanre ot
Mr. Calhoun’s proposition. Mr. Wright modi
fied it so as lo extend its provisions to payments

the following to the last clause.
“And from and after tho Ist day of January,
1041, all officers or agents engaged in making dis
bursmcnla for the United Stales or tho General
Post Office Department, shall make their pay
ments in gold and silver only, or such notes and
paper aa ahall bo authorized hy law! and any
revenue or disbursing officer neglecting so to do,
shall bo dismissed from bis office, and forfeit all
compensation which shall then bo due.”
i Upon this bill Mr. Niles took the opportunity
to speak, and if I thought there was a single ra
i tional being in yotlr quarter likely to be influenced
i i hy auch a simple, I would give some account of
I his remarks —but I cannot indulge auch an idea.
His notions about a gold and silver currency—the
I Sub-Treasury system —the divorce of Bank and
I Slate, were thoroughly Loco Foco, and borrowed
,! from the Globe, the President’s Message, and
r | other Agrarian documents. Tho Senate was
, I bored hy him for upwards of throe hours: and
t j when tho infliction of this punishment was over,
. they adjourned.
Mr. Canti rcling reported to the house the hills
■ which have passed the Senate for extending the
- i lima on Merchants’ Bonds—for adjusting the
? ! unsettled claims on certain Depusilu Banks—
. and lo authorise the issuance of Treasury N itcs
. These wore all referred lo tho Committee of the
f whole—so that tho house bills on ihe same sub
i jeets have bad the go hy.
Some conservation took place between Mr
I Biddle of Pa. and Mr. Thomas of Md, (chairman
i: of the committee of tho Judiciary) respecting
: ( the intentions of that committee on the subject of
,j the bankrupt law which had been recommended
- in the President’* Message. Mr. Thomas said
j lh» Committee had come la no decision upon the
.matter. The Senate Commute* have determined
I I Rot to bring in a hill of this character—and Ido
j not believe that of the House will.
j An animated discussion arose on Mr. Wise's
; resolution for inquiry into the circumstances of
the Florid* War, in which Mr. Holsey, of your
Stale,defended the conduct of tho Administration,
i Mr. Cushing made a spirited speech in reply :
and moved to strike out the provision in the re
solution for the appointment of a Committee by
bullet. Mr. Wise insisted on retaining this fea
tore of his resolution; and in the course of his
argument in support of it, ho made a statement
which produced a deep impression on the House.
He declared that if the Speaker had the appoint
ment, the committee would certainly be a stocked
pack! He had some experience of these stocked,
committees. The Investigation Committee, of
which he was Chairman last session, was such a
one. The report made by the majority was not
I written bv any of the members! “They taaw
j it,” he exclaimed, “and I challenge any of them- i
n-.o in-rc,ln say who penned it! It was written
!>y t irarruffr Iroui Huston, the edilor of a V an
I Buren p ifier, who was brought here hy Uutce J.
Pearce, a man, who, thank God, is now out ot
'his House, and ought to be out of Ihe country.
Ttiis man feigned sickness and remained at home,
' while drawing his eight dollars per diem, writing
' the report from notes furnished hy Ahijah Mann
j and Dulce J. Pearce. It was so full of falsehood,
} ihatlhc majority wuie obliged to expunge them.”
i He gave aa his authority Dales J. Pearce himself,
j who made the statement to Gov. Lincoln of Mass.
Col. Campbell of 8. C., and Mr. Wise, as an
apology for the falsehoods. “Do you,” ‘aid Mr.
Wise, “wish for another committee of that sort!”
Catnbieling was apprehensive of the effect of
this appeal, and called for the orders of tho day.
The Hrfuso then look up the anti-deposit bill*
i from the Senate, and the discussion was going
j on, when this packet was closed in order lo he in
j lime for the Express Mail, Ttli’bill will pass
the House by H -.mall majority.
WASHINGTON, Sept, ill, 1637.
j The resolution of Mr. Wise on the subject df
j the wdr in Florida, was again taken up to day —
I and gave rise to a dehato of great animation be
tween Mr. Muhlenbwg of Pa., and Mr. Wise, on
the subject of the proceedings in the Investigating
Comniittcc. of which the Utter was chairman at
the last session, Mr. Mohleuburg said that the
Clerk nf that Committee, Benjamin F. Huilct, was
in reality indisposed and thereby prevented from
attending ihe meeting of the Committee—that
wi.h regard to the authorship of the report, all he
knew, was, that the duty of dra ving it up was as
signed lo Duloe J. Pearce, a member of the major
ity and ho presumed that member did compose i •
Mr. Wise “you pesume sir—ii know he did not”
Mr. W. then proceeded to show that his state
ments, so far as concerned the material charges,
was not affected by Mr. Muldenlmrg. * <
Mi. Lincoln of Mass, in reply lo a call from
Mr. Wise,'testified that Mr Pearce had admitted
to him that Hidlet did write the R-port”
Mr. Wise then sard he had left out a part of
Ihe story in the speech of yesterday. The report
was so full of calumnies and falsehoods, that it
was agreed upon to notice and make tho mistale
ments as tho report was rend hy Mr. Peaice lo the
Committee. Cill. Campbell ol'S. (k, had wrlten
a whole sheet of foolscap over, but tho misrepre
scnlations and falsehoods became so frequent and
gross that be threw down his pen and insisted
upon black lines being drawn around the atro
cious calumnies,—The report, as tho reading pro
corded, grow at last so offensive lha Col. Camp
bell rose, and striking the table forcibly with bis
hand, addressed the reader, L). J. Pearce,thus ‘W-
I tell you that if this infamous report is sent into,
the House I will hold every inornlie who signs it
responsible lo me personally ; and if any one re-v
fuses to be held personally responsible, I will
chastise him, wherever I meet him in tho streets,
or in the Capitol” "Cot. Campbell then lock
ed the door of tho Committee room, and de
clared “no man should leave it, until the mon
strons falsehoods of tho report, were struck
out." Mr, Wise further said that Gov. Lincoln
had also expressed himself with the greatest
warmth on the same occasion. He adduced
these things lo show the characler of a stocked
pack placed upon an important Committee by
the speaker of tho House. Mr. Howard of Md.
moved to refer tho whole subject of inquiry to the
Committee on MililaryjAffjirs. Mr. Wise protest
ed against this reference. That Committee lie
showed was composed of eight. Administration
members, and one of tho opposition. He only
wanted a Committpo not decisively biassed against
(he objects of Inquiry.
The discussion was again interrupted by a
successful motion lo take up the special ruder—
the Asti DsPosite Bill —the consideiation ot
which was resumed in Coniiiiitiee of tho whole.
Mr. L minis of O.iioi.nadc a speech in opposition
to '.ho hill; and Mr. Jones of Va. is now addres
sing Ihe House in support of if.
The determination has been taken by tho Ad
ministration parly lo bring forward no bankrupt
law during the present special session. Tho Ju
diciary Committees of both branches of Congress
have expressed this determination.
In the Senate today,Mr. Wright from the Com
mittee of Finance, repotted a bill making an ad
ditional appropriation of a million and six thou
sand dollars for the supp ession of Indian hostili
ties, which was rea l and ordered to a second read
ing.
Mr. Wright also made a report on the subject
of the establishment of a National Bank, which
was prayed for in several memorials from ihe
Chamber of commerce of New Orleans, and from
the Stales of Mississippi, Illinois, and Missouri.
The report concluded with tho following resolu
tion :
“/ iestlveU , That the prayer of the petitioners
ought not to be grunted.”
The Sub Treasury scheme Bill was then tak
en up. Mr. Smith of Indiana apposed it in a
speech of great force and spirit; and Mr. Strange
ofN. C. made a long elaborate argument in sup
port of the measure, and in defence of the gener
al financial policy of lire Adnnnistraiion.
Mr. Tullmadga has the floor for tomorrow.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 22d.
The proceedings of this day in both houses of
Congress have been full of interest. Mr. Tall
madge, of N. Y., delivered bis sentiments in the
Senate at length, on ihe subject of the currency,
and against the newly [ imposed sub Treasury
scheme. He declared that measure was fraught
with the most incalculable n is- -i cf. The wolds
“divorce of the government” were merely catch
words. He porlrayed the effects of the measure
upon the banking, the commercial, and the agri
cultural intercstsof ihe country. Ho thought the
tendency was to bring about an exclusively me
tallic currency, and that so far as that object was
concerned, the propositions of Mr. Calhoun, Mr
Benton, and the President were the same; end
that those who would take any part of the polity
must lake it all. He dwelt upon its injustice and
inequality. It gave one kind of currency to the
people, and another kind to the office holders.
It would inevitably in rease and enlarge the pa
tronage of the Executive. He said the measure
was not so new as some persons imagined. It
had been brought forward some time ago, hy a
member of the House of Repreaen alivgs, and had
only obtained 33 voles. The administration and
iis supporters opposed it with their full force.
The organ of the Executive declared it revolution
ary and disorganizing, and proclaimed the Slate
Bank system as that of the adminiatiation. No
thing, he said, had occurred to make them change
their position, or to weaken the arguments then
advanced against the measure.
Mr. Calhoun followed with some remarks in
his support of the amendment he had offered, and
declared that the Senate bad no choice between
his pro|>osition and that of Mr. Rives. A conver
sation then look place between Messrs. Calhoun
and Rives, In regard to 'he character of their re
sp»r(i“C schemer.
Mr. Benton then •,p'>ko at length ia support ol
Mr. Calhoun’s amendment, without wliich, ho
nuid, the bill ivonld he of no u-c. Mr. Ucnlon
had nut finished, tv Lon it became necessary to
close this.
In the House, after the morning hour, Mr
Wise’s resolution of inquiry on the Florida war,
was taken up; and after being discussed for some
time, the hour lot going to the. special order arri
ved, and the debate was cut off without any de
cision having been coma to.
The anti-depoeitc bill was then again taken up
in Committee of the Whole, and Mr. Siiepherd_
of N. C., Mr. Sitdcy of N. Y., Mr. Cusliinan of
N. H.,and Mr. Dawson of Ga„ severally addtfis

I’hi! good advices from Liverpool, the dimuni
tion of stock and the progressive improvement
in tho market, have produced a good clfect in this
port,and the ordinary and middling qualites from
the TJ, S. have been in brisk demand. From day
to day the ma;ket has been more animated, anil
on Thursday the movement was extraordinay.
I he transactions on that day amounted to nearly
50U0 bales. Fuerc has been no advance in price,
however, but the prices have been well sustained.
At the beginning of the week, the fair and good
fair qualities with difficulty reached the price of
IOOf; but more recently the belter qualities have
liocr; also in demand. The demand having been
mostly for the ordinary and middling qualities,
it is proper !o state that the due proportion of
price between the ordinary and middling and the
good, has not been well sustained, and that the
advantage has been with buyers of the latter.
These however, are now beginning to feel the
impulse. A bit ot 32 bales Louisana which was
refused at 130 f, on Saturday, lias been taken at
137 50. The mark of this lot was one th it always
commands a good price in proportion lo others.
Since t|ic commencement of the mouth the con
supmtion has been 19,000 bales, which makes
1000 perdiem; and the arrivals being only 8609
bales, the sto k tr, sensibly di ninshed.

commencement of the season have been 201 857
