The Barque Philetug which cleared at the Cus’
tom-house yesterday for Havre, carried G7* bales
cotton the crop of the present year; this shipment
to a foreign port is earlier in the season, than any
which has been made from this port for several
years past.
Savannah continues remarkably healthy. We
have yet some few new cases of the Dengue; but
tho of reviving business, with consequent
cheerfulness and alacrity which so generally pre
vail, have in a great measure superceded the
symptoms of that troublesome disease.
We have had, says the N. Y. Commercial of
the 4th, a month of delightful weather. The
Equinox lingered a-week beyond its usual time,
and then let us off very gently; whereupon the
weather became more genial and pleasant than
before. The city is full of people; strangers
from abroad- merchants from the interior of our
own state, and from every part of this widely ex
tended and flourishing union. The business sea
son opened well and continues fair. Indeed the
merchants tell us they have no cause of com
plaint. All is life, bustle and’activity in the busi
ness parts of the town The clerks are kept up
oivtlie run; the employers walk with heads up,
smiles upon their faces, and firm eleaalic steps.
The fashionable streets arc enlivened with the
bright eyes of beauty, all around speaks health,
prosperity and happiness.
/gle aur .Yoir. —lt appears that this post on
lake Champlain, will not be abandoned by the
p -itish government, though sickness lias caused
a temporary romoval ol its garrison.
We are informed, says the National Intelligen
cer of the 7th, that official information has been
received at the Deportment of State, from Mr.
Tud r, our charge d'affaires at Rio de Janeiro,
that he had effected satisfactory arrangements
with the Brazilian government in the case of the
brig Spark, which secures to the owners of that
vessel the payment of the indemnity claimed by
them. viz. the sum of $35,000; and that he is as
siduously employed in the prosocutiou of all oth
er claims committed to his charge, of citizens of
the United States upon the said government.
The case cf the Spark produced the rupture
between Mr. late charge d’affairs of the
United States at Rio, and the government of Bra
zil, and led that gentleman to demand his pass
ports. and return to the F nited States.
An order from the king of Spain has been re- ;
ceived in this country from Madrid via Liverpool I
Its effect is to remit the duties hitherto exacted
on Spanish flour, imported into Havana in foreign
vessels, and thus give the article imported from
Spain an immense advantage over that from the
United States, whish is charged with au impost
of 750 cents per barrel.
The sale of American Woollen Goods, of the
well known manufacture of Mr. James Sykes,
near Baltimore, was weil attended yesterday, and
wo learn that the goods generally went off briskly,
at fair prices. There were sold 400 pieces of
Cloths and Cacsimeres, and 450 pieces of Satti
netts. The prices of the Cloths ranged from $2
50 to $5 77; of the Cassimeres, from $1 45 to $1
95; and of the Sattinetts from 70 cents to $3 45
per yard.— American .
Dye for Cotton. —Cotton, at Smyrna, is dyed
with madder in the following manner: the cotton
is boiled in common olive oil. and then in mTld al
kali; being cleaned, it will then take the madder
dye; and tuL is the fine color we seo in Smyrna
cotton yarn. I have heard that the sum of £SOOO
was given in England for tills secret.
The New York Statesman announces
the invention by Dr. Bell and Mr. Dyer
of New England, of a machine for spin
ing of fl ix, which is now in operation in
N**w York, and produces about the same
quantity of thread per spindle, fineness be
ing equal, as the throstle spindles in cotton
manufacture. This is a most impoitant in
vention if it proves in practice what is here
anticipated of its operations.
North Carolina Gold —The New York
Post has been favored wiilfthe sight of a
letter, from a correspondent at Hampton*
ville in North Carolina, giving an account
of the quantities of gold lately found in
that part of the country. Anew mine has
been discovered ab ut five miles from
H nmptonville, which is thought to promise
well. At a mine in Anson county, a lump
of the metal has been found weighing 13
lbs avordopoise, entirely solid and estima
ted to be worth from $2500 to S3OOO Os
course, this success h is produced some ex
citemeut in a neighboring county, anc many
workmen have abandoned their usual occu
pations to search for gold. At Capp,s
mine about 100 hands are at work finding
from one to five dollars worth of the metal
a day. D is generally found in fine par
ticles and perfectly pure. Large pieces
are rarely met with. The. largest ever
found in North Carolina was that found
some years since in Carbaras county. It
weighed 28 lbs. and was worth about S6OOO.
The writer proceeds to sa\:
“It is .x fine source of profit to the pro
prietors of the soil, for it is the poores’ land
which the most is found. lam told that
two merchants in Charlotte, sixty miles
from this place, have bought this year fit y
thousand dollars worth of gold dust. Tiitn

From Guafalama. — Capt. Hull, o! the
brig Joseph, at this port from Truxillo, in
forms, ih.it the misunderstanding between
the Guatamalinns and St. Salvadorians
still continued, and there appeared to he no
prospect of a speedy termination to the un
happy difference. Both parties had then
scouts out, and skirmishes often took place
between them, but nothing farther.
Capt. Hull understood that an ordel
had been made by the government of Cen
tral America, prohibiting the introduction
of any article of Spanish growth or mail*
ufactuie into the country.
Privateer taken. —lt will be seen by the
following account from the Boston Palladi
um of Tuesday, the privateer which cap
fhred the British Brig Caraboo, has been
taken at St. Eustatia There are probably
others fitted out ai St. Barts, now commit
ting depredations at sea.
The St. Thomas Times of 10th Septem
ber with which we have favored, contains
the following article.
St. Thomas , Sept. 10.—The sc hr.
which captured the English brig Caraboo,
was taken on .'hturdav last by the British
sloop of war Victor, ; t St. Eustatia. The
following extract of a letter will put our
| readers in possession of the particulars.
Extract of a letter from St. Eustatia.
| dated Bth insf:—“l -am glad to inform you
tint the little schr which captured llieCar
rabo, of Liverpool, is now in possession of
the British Government; she came here on
Saturday, to inquire after her prizes, and
there happened to be an English sloop of
war here, which had just made sail to pro
ceed on a cruise, & after having got about
four miles to the southward, she met the
schr. and gave chase. The man of war
fired on her, upon which the schooner
hoisted the Dutch pendant and flag, and
c *nsequent!y the former ceased firing, but
followed her into this port. On getting
into harbor, the schr. lowered the. Dutch
f! ig, and hoisted that of Buenos Ayres.—
Tlie ship immediately anchored about ten
or twelve fathoms outside of her, and sent
on shore to demand her from the Govern
ment, stating that he could have taken u<
sunk her, had it not been through respee.i
for the Dutch flag, which she first hoisted;
the Government called a Court, and founc
by the log-book of the schr. the time sh
captured the Carraboo, she was then, to
gether with her people, immediately giv
en up to ilie maa of war Captain J >s<. i
says, the Carraboo had a Brazilians Por
tuguese Register besides her English one.
4 I am persuaded that this vessel must
have done a great deal of mischief, and I
hope if they have been guilty of murder,
that they will meet their just reward.
“The schr. might have escaped, >f she
had gone to the north of the Island, as she
could outsail the ship; but the fellows did
not suppose their villany was discovered, or
they never would have ventured into port.
Had she made an attempt to pass the road
stead, tho garrison were ail prepared to
bring her to or sink her.’’

Disastrious Shipwreck: —A narrative
fuller of painful interest than the subjoined
has seldom been perused. The heroic de
votion of the fisherman who was instfumeu
ta! in saving so many lives and his generous
sacrifices afterwards for their comfoit, can
not be too highly extolled;
Ilis Majesty’s ship Tyne, Halifax, July 26.
Sir— l have just arrived at this port, with
152 passt ngers, men women, and children
Sived from the wreck of the brig Dispatch,
of Workinton, commanded hy tiie late
illiam Lancaster, who was drowned short
ly after tiie vessel struck on a rock, three
qu liters of a mile from the main, and 18
miles to the Eastward of Cape Rav. Tiie
mate (a brother of the ind the crew
nine in number, were all saved, and are
with me.
From the statement of die mate. it ap
pears that the brig sailed from Londonderry
with 200 passengers, on the 29h of May,
hound to Quebec; that from the 19th un
til the 29'h of June, they did not see the
sun, and from the 30;h to the 7‘hinst they
could not get an observation ;on that dav
they made the land, which they supposed
was Cape Chapeau Rouge. From that
time they had constant fog, hut having run
with a S. E. wind, till it was supposed they
were abreast of Cape Ray, the course was
altered to N. W. \ N. about SP. M o*
Thursday the 10th. At 6P. M. a roci
was discovered three points on the lee bow;
the helm was put down but the brig struck
almost immediately and filled. \r attempt
was made to land the passengers from the
lower studding sail boom hut it failed. The
pinnace was got out and instantly stove; the
jolly boat was lowered to try to save the
women, hut tiie surf was too high, and af
ter hanging on by a rope for three hours,
j the boat was thrown over the quarter and
the master with two passengers w ho were in
her drowned. The mate succeeded iii'get
ting long boat out, which fortunately
swung clear of the brig, with about 30 pas
sengers in her; they held on all night by a
rope from the hows, and the following
morning the mate and three seaman drop
ped from the. jib-boom With two oars in ihe
fu>at, and landed on the main those in hei.
The stern of the brig fortunately fell on the
rock when she parted, and the niaji.rity of
| the passengers got to the rork >u a ropt
from it. From Friday to Tuesday evening
was occupied in getting them off in small
parties, through a tremeudious surf to the
main. Four men and ten children perish
ed from fatigue on the rock, and between
thirty and t rty were washed off or fell be
tween tiie brig and were drowned. Those
who are saved are indebted for their lives
to the exertions of a fisherman named Har
voy, residing with a wife and children on
Dead Island, about four miles from the spot
where the accident happened. He had
picked up on Saturday evening, a keg
and straw bed, close to his house which led
him to suspect a shipwreck. The follow
ing morning fSuuday) at daylight ho start
ed in a boat only 12 feet long with his el
dest girl, aged 17, and eldest son only 10,
as~4iis crew, aud hy six o’clock reached the
spot where those landed at first in the long
boat, and only six others who had been got
•flflhe rock with ihe wreck of the jolly
’•oat, which had been thrown on shore.—
[J irvev’s knowledge of the place and tides
enabled him to direct the exertions of the
mate and throe seamen in placing the boats.
On Sunday evening at 6p. m. 60 men, wo
men and children were saved that ni”h t ;
during Monday, 30; and on Tuesday, ad
who were alive; the whole were obliged to
efiable the seamen in the boat to drag then*
with a small line through the surf, and were
afterwards barely covered with clothes
washed on shore. Harvey, during each
night, had conveyed to his house those
most in want f support, and shared with
them half of tlfe stock of previsions provid
ed fin* the support of his family till the au
tumn; the other half he gave to those on
the beach After all were saved, he madh
two trips to Port aux Basques, with the first
party, and was about to return to the wreck
for the remainder, when I arrived in con
sequence of intelligence he forwarded to
Cape Ray, where this ship was.

Singular Discovery . —Mi. Horton, a
gentleman who has been engaged in boring
for water in providence, lias presented to
the public some remarkable results. In his
second experiment in boring, he selected
the extreme point of a wharf, many yards
from the original land. He bored through
the artificial soil—then through a stratum ;
of mud—then through sand, pebbles and
quartz gravel At this point water impreg
nated with copperas and arsenic broke
forth, but desterminating to proceed, Mr.
Horton next struck a vineyard and drew
up vines, grape leaves, acorns, hazle nuts,
pine burs, and the seeds of unknown fruits
together with pure water. This was 35
feet below the bed ofthe l iver?
The various mo- es of writing a name
now so familiar to every one—
“A name you all must know very well,
Nobody can speak, and nobody spell’’
have been noticed in another part of our

-fates that the name on the French maps
is Citimla in the French papers Ciiutnla,
in the Berlin papers Choumla, and in the
English papers fr equently Shumla, but that
the true name is Tzchowmliew\ We should

A singularly outrageous act was commit
ted in the Police Office yesterday, during
tho examination of a prisoner on a crimin
al charge; a young man named William
Forepaugli, was called as a witness to tes
tify on the part of the commonwealth On
passing the dock where the prisoner was
seated, and within striking distance, the
prisoner sprung on him with an unsheathed
dirk, that be had secreted on his person,
md made two well directed blows at the |
body of the witness, but which were war
ded off by him, ns to prevent his receiv
ing hut one of them slightly on his right
breast
Hu was instantly secured by the officers,
lisarmed and tied, and after his hearing
and committal on several charges of lar
ceny, he was also committed for this as
sault and battery, with intent to murder, I
which he openly and repeatedly avowed.
Forepaugh was an accomplice in crime,;
and was marked by this villain for his vic
tim. The name of the prisoner is John !
Brad ford, alias John Stewart, or better I
known among thieves as English Jack, an
Id offender, having been frequently con
victed fi r larcenies, and, we regret to sav,
hut recently turned loose upon us by a par
don from the Governor of the common
wealth.
NEWSTEAD.
Bes. re the gate stands a fine spreading
oak, one of the few remaining trees of
Sheervvood forest, the famous haunt iff Ro
bin Hood and his associates, which once
ci vered all this part of the and
whose centre was about the domain of New.
stead. To this oak, the only one of any
size, on the estate, Byron was very partial.
I is pretty well known that his great uncle
(to whom he succeeded) cut down almost
I) the valuable timber, partly to pay gamb
ling debts, and partly for pure mischief’s
s <ke, to injure the property which he knew
would pass into another branch of the fami
ly, all of whom, in consequence of his hav- !
ing killed Mr. Chatworth, had forsaken 1
aim. So that when Bvron came into pos
session of the estate, and indeed the whole
time he had it, i( presented a very hare and
desolate appearance. Unluckily he hau
not fortune enough to do what lias since
boon done on such an enlarged scale, and
with so much taste, by the present own e
Lieut. Col. Wild man, and which alone can
render the property intrinsically valuable.
The soil is very poor, and fit only for the
grow th of latch and firs ; and of those up
wards of 700 acres have been planted.—
By ion could not afford the first outlay
which was necessary in order ultimately
to increase its worth, so that as long as he
held it, its rental did not exceed £I3OO a
year. In a cabinet, at tlie end of'lie room,
carefully preserved and concealed in a slid
ing case, is kept the celebrated skull cup,
upon which are inscribed those splendid
verses—
“Stait not, —nor deem my spirit fled,” &.C,
People often suppose, from the name, that
the cup retains all the terrific appearance
of a death’s head, and imagine that they
could
“Behold through each lack-lustre, eyeless hole
The g ay recess of wisdom and of wit
not at all—there is nothing whatever start
ling in it—nothing can he clearer and less
“offensive—in fact, nobody would know,
were he not told, that it was not a common
bone bowl. It is made of the crown of ilie
head cut straight off, so that all ihe disgust
ing portion of a skull is avoided; is well
polished; its edge is bound by a broad rim
of silver; and it is set in a neat stand of the
same metal, which serves as a handle, and
upon the four sides of which, and not on
the skull itself, the verses are engraved.—
It is, in short, in appearance, a very ham -
some utensil, and from which the most fas
tidious person might (in my opinion) drink
without scruple. It was produced after
dinner when Byron had company at tho
1 bbey, and a bottle of claret poured into
it. It was wrought by a man at Notting
ham, who was seve ely reproved by a wor
thy divine not far from Newstead, for this
profanation of the dead. The reply of ihe
workman, that he should be happy to make)
a similar one out of his head after death,!
upon being equally well paid f* r the trou-j
b)e, so alarmed the reverend gentleman, j
that he was taken seriously ill, and confined j
for considerable time to his house. An el- }
egant round library table is the only furni-l
ture in this room that belonged to Byron, j
and this he constantly uod. Beyond ihe 5
refrectory, on the same floor, isßyron’sj
study, now used as a temporary dining
room, the entire furniture of which is the |
same th t was used hy him; it is all very
plain—indeed ordinary. A good painting
of a battle, over ihe sideboard, was also
ins. This apartment, perhaps beyond all
others, deserves the attention, of ihe pilgrim
to Newstead as more intimately connected
with the poetical existence of Byron.
It was here that he prepared for the press
those first effusions of his genius, which
were published at Newark* under the tide
of Hours of Idleness. It was here that he
meditated, planned, and for the most part
wrote, that splendid retort to the severe
critique they had called down, which plac
ed him at once among the first poets, and
stamped him as the keenest satirist of the
diy And if was here that his tender and
beautiful verses to Mary Chatworth (after
wards and now Mrs. Musters) and many of’
those sweet pie ces found among his miscel- !
laneous poem were composed. Then a
place of deep and abstract thought—now of
merriment and rrj icing; but the memory
of Byron flings over it a charm which at
tracts more strongly than the most sumptu
ous banquet. Byron first sold the estate to
Mr Claughton, for the sum, as I am inform
ed by the then bailiff to it, of £135,000;
and upon the agreement not being complet
ed, Mr C. paid a forfeit of £25,000; hut J
do not vouch for the accuracy of this state
ment It was then st ld to Lieutenant Co
lonel \V ild ham for £94,ooo—much more
than its intrinsic value Coming from An*
nesley, nothing is seen till you are at the
top of a hill close to the Abbey, when the
south front bursts suddenly on the sight.—
Putting aside all association of idea, 1 th ’t
a more mournful, dreary looking place was
never beheld. In w inter especially, noth
ing can be more desolate; the bleak coun
try around, the thinness of the population,
and the miserable villager—all impress one
with feelings of me! un holy. For an abbey
this is so much the better; it would require
but little to put it into a state which would
realise ail our ideas of monastic seclusion.
