From Our Special Correspondent.]
The organs of public opinion in England
aem to be of one mind on- the subject of the
satisfactory adjustment of the claims made by
the United States for compensation on the
question of losses sustained by the depreda
tions of the Alabama and other pirate ships
during the late war. The London Times
bares the question to its nudity so far as Earl
Russell is concerned, apd boldly states that
that is the only question in which he could be
tolerated in the office of First Minister of the
Crown. He has a character to loss by a base
compliance or a needless war, and as he is
committed to the subject, he should not be
permitted to slip away from it; neither should
it he taken out of his hands nor thrown upon
those of any other party.
Tlie remains of the late Prime Minister of
1-inglandVere interred in Westminster Abbey
between those of the two Pitts, the Earl of
Chatham and Wm. Pitt oh one side, and
Charles James Fox on tjhe other.
During the rage of the cholera in Paris the
Empress Eugenie made frequent visits to the
hospitals, and expressed her deep sympathy
with the patients and the surviving friends
of the dead.
At every point from which returns have 5been
as vet received, the Republican ticket is tri
umphant. and the papers in the interest of that
party are crowing with ail their might and clap
ping their wings over the great majority which
the present elections will have returned to the
Senate and the houses of Assembly on Republi
can principles. New Jersey has become Repub
lican. - - .
A man named Alabady, in a drinking bouse,
deliberately advanced to another named Neville
and discharged a loaded pistol at him, wound
ing him seriously, but as yet not pronounced
mortally.
Daniel McDonald, a native of Ireland, and
driver of aBtreet car was stabbed by —Good
man, a native American. Those men were at
variance for some time previous, and -McDonald
proposed a reconciliation -in a drinking house,
and Neville reciprocated his proposal by using
the knife. The wounded man was removed to
hospital, but on reaching the portals his humane
assistants discovered that he wag dead.
A respectable looking man rather advanced in
life, and apparently in the capacity of a porter or
confidential messenger, carrying a parcel in each
hand, and walking down Nassau street on Wed
nesday, was roughly spoken to by a fiery red
hirsuite of tewer years,'who acted like ruffian.
Tlie respectable aged man took no notice nor
gave provocation by word or set, when the other
crossed over from the opposite side using op
probrious words and threatening gestures, and
walked up deliberately with clenched fist and
struck the quiet, unoffending man a blow on the
back of the neck and kicked him violently in the
rear. Not content with this outrage, he re
peated the assault with greater violence—the
poor man’s hands being -occupied on bis em
ployers business, and if .bb'had laid down the
parcels to defend himself against a better dressed
men aud a ruffiian, the chances are they would
soon disappear, and perhaps be possessed by
some accomplices of the assailant.
One other of the passengers of the Atalanta
died of cholera in hospital. The malady was
pronounced by Dr. Sayre of unmistakable Asi
atic type, but it is subsiding—many cases hav
ing yielded to treatment, and no new cases ap
pearing. The healthful passengers are permit-
fed to come ashore, the stricken ones removed
to hospital, and the ship fumigated. On the
arrival of a steamship from Bremen on Thurs
day, with 560 cabin and steerage passengers,
the was removed to quarantine; but, after a
rigid medical examination, the passengers were
permitted to land—leaving the ship at quaran
tine to be fumigated. -The epidemic is abating
—no death and. no pew .case down to Friday.
This morning there is nothing new to record.
Thgkpamship Jacob Bell, from Washing
ton tTOew York, was abandoned in Chesa
peake Bay, and those on board were saved by
the Banshee and conveyed in safety to this
port
Captain Fyer, of a New York Regiment, on
his recovery from the sufferings he underwent
after the wreck of the steamer Republic, from
Georgia, gave a thrilling narrative of the event
and blames the Captain (Young) as the cause
of the calamity.
Every mail and every arrival from sea brings
distressing intelligence of some kind or other
» refer*** to the and damage of ship-
1 those on board. The latest accounts received
are to the effect that the schooners Cleveland
and Crawford, and the barque Great West, all
of this port, were wrecked or seriously in

The Convent of the Sacred Heart, in
131st street, is an extensive educational es
tablishment for young ladies, and the pious
community keep two boilers for thcjmrpose of
generating steam to heat the establishment.
Yesterday morning one of those boilers col
lapsed from want of water, exploded and
smashed to atoms itself and the engine house,
killing Fitzpatrick, the engineer, -rind
his body in the ruins. The superioress, Madame
Hardey, caused a letter- to be written to the
New York editors, stating that there was no
injury sustained by the pupils nor any other
person except Fitzpatrick, and this she did to
allay all apprehensions on the subject.
Miss Mary West Jenkins, of St. Louis, was
married on Wednesday morning to Prolessor
Boynton,of Syracuse, and in the evening the bride
and bridegroom made a tqur in a balloon from the
park to Westchester county, about 20 miles, and
having surveyed the heavens and the earth at an
altitude of two miles iu nubibus, descended at six
o’clock after an aerial voyage of two boars. They
then retired to discuss the wonders they had seen.
What a celestial tour 1 !!—cried many of the
gapiDg crowd who followed the course o! the be I*
loon nntil wrapped in clouds, and even after
that continued to gaze on vacancy, wondering a*
so long and so strange a flight on a bridal trip.

ta th*' effect that the ca'amity was occasioned by
some detect in the construction ol the boiler, or

Cholera had broken out in 8julhamptoD, of
which Dr. Cooper, an eminent physician there,
died afier]a few hours’ illness. •
Ginglini, the distinguished opera singer,
and reputed tlie first tenor in the world, died
on the 12th of October in a lunatic asylum in
Pesaro, his natal place, in Iialy, aged thirty-
nine years. The first development of insani
ty was easily perceived, and the hope, was en
tertained by his physicians that under treat
ment in an asylum a recovery might be ef
fected. He had been only a short time in the
asylum when be sank into a state of helpless,
hopeless idiotcy, and in that condition he who
kept thousands in silent rapture hanging upon
the charm of liis musical and vocal powers
passed away from life.

Death ol the Last Chiel of the Choc
tswi
The Jackson (Miss ) News, of October 19th,
announces the death ot Col Del Greenwood Le
flore, the last chief of the Choctaw Indians, and
by his influence mainly the best portiofi of the
State of Mississippi was ceded by the treaty of
Dancing Rabbit Creek to the Cni ted States. La*
flora was formerly State Senator from this ooffu-
the son cf a Frenchman, ty an In
dUn wife, but identified himself fully with tha
Indians.
Some time early in the “forties,” while he was
State Senator from Carroll county, there was
great temperancejerivff in Jaekson, and a State
temperance society was formed, oyer which
the Chief Justice (now Governor Sharkey) w*
president Laflora took an active part in this
movement. -
Two negro women appeared-in a Memphis

Exbcl'tioh or J. L. Grower.—At noon, on
the 3d instant, this man, perhaps more unfor
tunate than criminal, was executed at Talla
hassee, by order of Major General Foster,
founded upon the fiuding of ‘‘Guil’y of Mur
der'' by the Military Commission before whom
he was tried.
Immediately before the ex* cation he made
a lew rt m irk* to the peoi 1 ‘ pre-ent, most of
whom were n-groes which is thus f irrushed
by the Semin 1:
“He w:nn il all, and pi-pccially young men,
to beware of the inmxicHiing cep; that he
va< not him-tlf when Le fired the pistol, being
under the influence of liquor; and but for that,
he said, Jasper Bassett, who *** ihe bqstfriend, .per bushel. Si
he' ever had] would not now be in his grave, fit scarce at $32
and he (Groner) under the halter. He hoped
the citizens of Tallahassee would treat his
wife and children kindly, and would not look
upon them as disgraced by this unfortunate act
of his.”
Wbat a sad commentary upon the abuse of
strong drink, that a man should coolly and
without provocation shoot dead his “best
friend.” Let our young men, iedeed, take
warning, lest they meet the fate of Groner.

A FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT.
The Ca/itain of a Schooner Bb/wn to Pieces i)y
the Kx/dosion of a Torpedo, and Instant
ly Killed the in Presence of IBs Wife—The
Mate also Killed.
The schooner A. Richards, of Boston, Captain
Nelsou H. Arey, of Thomastou, Maine, cleared
lrom Richmond, Va., for this place ou the 19th
Oct., with oue hundred tons of coal and two
Locomotive Engines, lor the Florida Atlantic
and Gulf Ceutrat Railroad, and entered the St.
Johns on the 4th mst.
While comiDg up the river the following day,
Sunday—the vessel got aground at the mouth
of Duons Creek, about seven miles below Jack
sonville, near the place where the Harriet A
Weed was blown up in June, 1864. While wait
ing for the tide t > rise and float the schooner oil,
the captain, accompamed by his wife and the
mate, Ch rles Hopper, of ,St. Thomas W. I.,
went on shore in a boat, the captain taking with
him an axe—proceeding along the banks of the
river a tew steps in advance of bis companions,
his attention was attracted by wbat, to him,
must have been a angular lo> king object, lying'
near the edge ol the water, paitially covered with
barnacles and weed, which be stopped to examme
While doing so, be was seen to strike a slight
blow with bis axe, and the next moment, as his
wife says, he was enveloped in a cloud ot sm 0 ke
which was immedia'ely followed by a terrific ex*
plosion, throwing the Captain some fifteen paces,
m .ngling him frightfully, and ot course killing
him instantly. The mate was also thrown seme
distance and «bockingly burned, and died of bis
ojuries the following day. The torpedo was of
the cigar shape barrel variety, and must have
been one of the number planted at the time the
ill-fated Weed was blown up, nearly eighteen
months agu, and which the Boston with a large
load of passengers so narrowly escaped, she hav
ing passed over them immediately ahead ol the
Weed. On being informed of the particulars of
the explosion, a party of cur citizens visited the
scene of the disaster and gathered up the remains
of the Captain. A subscription was started
among tbe Captains of tbe vessels io port and
onr merchants and shippers, for the' purpose of
raising funds to procure a metallic ooffin for tbe
C-ptaio’s remains and to defray the expense in
curred in buryiog the mate. With commendable
promptness aod liberality tbe handsome sum of
$364 was immediately raised, which after paying
all expenses left a gratuity of $269 which was
presented to the widow.—Jacksonville Union,

Great Storm at Key West—Shipwrecks
ahd Terrible Loss or Life.—We learn that
on the 23d instant a terrible gale was expe
rienced on the Florida coast, ip the vicinity of
Key West, daring which a large number of
vessels were wrecked or driven ashore, and
great loss of life Was occasioned.
A steamer, purchased a few weeks since in
New York," by Mr. McKay, of Tampa, for the
purpose of transporting cattle to Havana, is
supposed to be lost. On this steamer theGov-
erdment had provided transportation for one
bnodred and fifty men, mostly mechanics, who
were sent out from New York to work on Fort
Taylor at Key West. We .have no particulars
as to the other vessels reported to be lost or
driven ashore. In Key West much damage
was done; and cocoa nut trees were torn up by
the roots. On the Dry Tortngas a large frame
building was lifted up and carried a consider
able distance without damage to it, and a
Quartermaster at that station is reported kill
ed. The gale was more severe than any expe
rienced on the Florida coast for many years
The rumored disasters at sea are so numerous
that we can hardly credit them—Tallahassee
Sentinel, 31st alt.
Thb Steamer D. H. Mount.—We forbear
saying anything on the long absence of this
boat and its freight of precious life. We would
not add to a pang that is now felt by so many
in Florida, nor would we encourage a hope
that may in a moment be blasted.—Jacksonville
Herald.
[The above steamer wm advertised in the
New York Shipping List of the 8th inst., to
sail on the fOlh November, and the anxiety felt
by the Herald at her non-arrival is premature.
__Ed. Sav. National Republican.]
A VatRRAN Gone,—Died, at St. Augustine,
Nov. 2d, Cspt. James R. Hanham, aged ninety-
four years. 1
Cant. Hanham was tor many years connected
with the army of the United States, and was tbe
eldest resident of St. Augustine. He has been
identified with the history of EMt Florida since
1811, when; by eommaad of Governor Andrew
Jackson he took possession of tbe public records
which were of great value, and whieh were
piekfd aod about to b* shipped to Cuba.
Advertise- Now Is the Time,
Tlie columns of the daily newspaper
are the proper medium for the business
maD, if he desires to make known to the
world his avocation. He may open his
establishment, display his stock, and yet
every endeavor he may make will not
bring abound him the trade to lie secured
by a proper system of advertising. The
most prosperous business men of New
York and Philadelphia, as well as our
own city, have fully proven this fact.
Stewart and Vanderbilt, tbe millionaires
of tbe Empire city, accumulated their
wealth by keeping persistently before tbe
public the-, feature that they were en
gaged in a business, the character of which
it was to the interest of the public to
know. Girard, who was the wealthiest
man of the Quaker city, owed his great
success to printer’s ink. Coming down
to later examples, we find Jay Cooke, who
has mamevered the United States loans
to such advantage, among the most emi
nent patrons of daily journals, ascribes
his good fortune to a liberal dispensa
tion of patronage to the press.
It is scarcely worth our while to call at
tention to the Bonners, and Jaynes, and
Ayers and Brandreths, who have years
since been enabled to accumulate fortunes
by advertising on an extensive scale.
They have become so well convinced of
its advantages in tbe past that they ad
here to it with pertinacity even in the
days of their retired prosperity.
The time to advertise is now. Make
your advertisement in a readable shape,
and keep it before the people.—
From them you must derive some
patronage, and they must know that
you are requesting their attention.—
Every journal of a fair circntion is
worthy of your consideration, and
you must remember that for every
subscriber it may have, it generally has
a half do^en readers—and all the bill
posting in the laud is not so really and
lastingly beneficial as a continued series
of advertisement^ gotten up in good
ahjtpe and thus published. Try it once,
try it twice, and don’t get discouraged—
it will pay in the end.—Ecchuw/e.
Demise of Capl. John H. Moore.
It becomes our painful duty to chronicle the
death of Captain John II. Moore, U. S. A-,
late Chief Quartermaster of this Military Dis
trict.- The sad event occurred on the night of
Saturday last, and was unexpected and sud
den. Captain Moore had been ill for some
days, but his illness was not considered of s
dangerous character by his friends and those
who were attending him. His connection
with tbe army dates back to an early period,
his first experience being that of a Clerk in tbe
Qoartermaster’s Department in the Western
section of the country. He was identified
with the Department of tho South from the
first, and for several months held the respon
sible position of Chief Quartermaster of the
Department. For a. long period he attended
to the duties of Quartermaster at Beaufort,
and subsequently at Folly and Morris' Islaods,
and at Jacksonville, Fla. His high reputation
as a faithful and efficient officer hat been fre
quently mentioned in the reports qf the-Com-
manding Generals, and all who ever bad busi
ness transactions with him will testify to his
promptness and ability. In social life, Capt.
Moore was one of the most genial and agree
able of companions. In manners he was rather
quiet and always'unass anting. His delight was
to make gvery one around him "feel cheerful
and happy. In paying this brief tribute of re
spect to his memory we cannot but be assured
thi.t his friends and acquaintances will join us
in giving expression to the sorrow which his
sudden death has created.—Charleston Courier,
Nor. 13

We leant that this eminent gentleman, law
yer and statesman, is exported in a few days

to take his place among the bar of this city,
so long his adopted and much lemd home. Of
that distinguished body he Was one of tbe
brightest ornaments, and fiisnry of onr citizens
Will never forget the electric tffifct of his ioren
