A breathless 1 silence pervaded l(ie court—when some body j iu the gallery gave a long, loud and shrill ; ehout—“JosM!” It was electrifying.

But alter much ineffectual anarch the design wa* abandoned and the trial proceeded.

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!

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.

IfUhft naming w« hoisted anchor with a a-i cht fair wind, and that night anchored 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 i sale several town-ships were struck oft’ at a i high price to somebody who gave his name as s “Josh." Hi* person could not be identified ( in the crowd who surrounded the auctioneer, I and the purchaser never called to settle the I bills. At first he was suspected to be a by. b elder, but afterwards people thought differ ently. About that time the si reels were of I ten disturbed at midnight by loud and proion t god screams for Josh, but thu watch cuuld ne ver detect the transgressor. Ho disappeared • last winter when the I hermomeler was about t BO degrees below zero ; but if you believe it, ’ wo heard him here lust mglit shouting Josh on I the summit of the hold which makes Owl’s i Head. And so we have now brought out thia r K" 11 to give him a salute, ifho appears again i to.night. .

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*.

CRAWFORD, 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.

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 wtiii-h ho made his great speech on Monday last. Mt.W ight,ofN. Y. suggested some modifications wbhh Were accepted by Mr. Calhoun. It was a 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 to, and by the Post Office Department, and added 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.

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 sed the House on the subject. Left silling. the N. Y Com. Ado, sept. 21. V LATEST FROM EUROPE. ’ Tho’sbip Natchez, Copt.

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.
