PATENT EXCELSIOR STRAW, HAY AND CORN-STALK CUTTER. subscriber* invite the attention of Farmers, and 1 all others Interested in feeding Htock, to their newly invented CCTTKR, which they confidently offer to the pub lic a* the most durable and effective Cutting Machine ever ÜBCd. The Machine (except the leg* an*] hopper) is made en tirely of Iron and Hteel, thus securing the important de nideraturn of durability ; aud being simple in its construc tion, there is hut little liability to get out of order. The Knives are nineteen in number, of fine Cast Steel, with a cutting edge of thirty-seven and a half feet; they work against nothing but the material to be cut, therefore, they do not wear out the Machine or soon become dull; and when necessary they can be sharpened in five minutes without removing them from the shaft. With these Machines the cutting of food for a large stock is but the work of a few minutes, and with them can be cut Hay, Straw, Fodder, Corn-Stalks, Pea-Vines, Turnips, Pumpkins, and all such food as is used for Stock, and with such rapidity us is truly astonishing. An Inspection will convince all of its great superiority, and all interested will be pleased with thisgreat improve ment lit Agricultural Implement*. The** Cutters are securely boxed, so that they will bear transportation to any distance without injury. K. T. TAYLOR & 00., Columbus, Ga.

My Dear Sir: —l had, a few days since, at the planta tion of Mr. Malory, the opportunity of witnessing the per formance of your newly invented Gin, and I was particularly pleased and struck with the improved method of separating the lint from the seed. The arrange ments for moving the Gin were very imperfect, got up merely for a trial, and It was in consequence operated to n great disadvantage, yet the quality of the lint over that made by one of the very best Saw Gins from the same heap of Seed Cotton, was superior beyond my conception, and the seed was left unusually clean. lam satisfied this im provement will succeed, and I beg you to have me a Gin made as soon as you are prepared to do so. Permit me to suggest to you the propriety of having one in operation at the next Agricultural Fair at Macon.

Too dear for this cold world to know, In the caverns cf earth there are fountains that start And forever in loneliness flow, On whose echoing waters no morning shall rise, Yet their waves are as pure, and as bright, As if gushing along beneath blue sunny skies They had Uved an existence of light. And the travller’s torch, as»he roams through the cave, On those mystical river* will beam, With a glory that falls on each slumbering wave Like the spell of some beautiful dream. And thus, one sweet moment of rapture will pour A bright halo of gladness and love On the spirit all shrouded in darkness before And Its midnight of sorrow remove. And when they have fled—when not even a trace Os these meteor-joys shall remain, The pathway of time we will fondly retrace, And still live them in memory again. As a dove will fly back to her favorite bower. Though the mate that once shared it has fled, And the bee Unger still around summer’s lost Jlouer, its leave* are all withered and dead. Though, far, far away from its own native deep, Yet through the heart of an ocean shell The murmur of billows seems ever to sweep, Like the voice of a mournful farewell. And thus, in the heart a low echo will ring From worlds which no more shall be si>okea, And a thrill of delight to the spirit still bring, When all its best chords have been broken. Canton Place, La.

The day is bright, and fair, and cheery, It shines, and the sun is never weary; The rose in bloom, and the orange tlower, Scatter their sweets o'er hall and bower, And the day is bright and cheery. My life is calm, and bright, and cheery, It shines, and the day is never weary ; My thoughts still dwell on the gladsome past, And the hopes of the future rise full and fast, And the day is bright and cheery. Be calm, light heart, and when repining, Behold the clouds when the sun is shining; Your lot is the common lot of all, With every breeze some sweet must fall, When the day Is bright and cheery. Cyclone Storm. A strong proof of the circular direction of th» wind in many groat storms, appears in the won derful fact that Bhips on the ocean while souddina fairly before the tempest, otton sail round and round the compass, showing the truly whirling na ture of the gale. As vessels are daily arriving at this port bearing on their log books tho records of stormß, it seems advisable that all instances of circular or rather cycloidal sailing be duly report ed to the public. Wlien once seamen better under stand the whirling direction of great gales, a firm and valuublc advance will bo made in the art of navigation, especially in tho Eust Indies, where tho forward motion of the whirl has been found to be slower nnd the diameter shorter, and conse quently where a ship should fly off from tho storm in a tangent and not ignorantly circulate nrouud theoeutro. Mr. Kedileld, of this city among his vast collection of important facts lias given a num ber ol instances where vessels huve scudded nrouud successively through all the points of tho compass. “Tho most striking case” ho says, in ono or hii memoirs, “is that of the Charles Ilcddle in a hur ricane near the Mauritius in February 1845, which lias been furnished me by Mr. Peddington. This wus a clipper built vessel, once a slaver, and was bound from Mauritius to Muscat. It appears from tlio log, that in her conrso round and round the gale, the wind received five complete revolutions in 117 hours, with an average run of eleven and seven tenths knots per hour; tho whole distance thus sailed, being 1878 miles, while the progression of the hurricane at this period was less than four miles per hour. During thia time tho vessel made a good oourso S. W. 854 miles only, nearly on the usual course pursued by the hurricanes near Mau ritius. Her average distanco from the gales cen tre is estimated at about forty-five miles. “ Mr. Thorn, in tiis account of the Rodriguez storm in April, 1848, has shown that tho Robin Cray ran once and a hull times around tho axis of the storm, till being thrown on hor beam ends, she was prevented from continuing her circuits. In the samo storm, tho Argo mado part of hor second circuit, scudding round in the gale in the samo di rection. In like manner, the Margarot mado a cir cuit and a quarter around the axis, chiefly in tho heart of tlio gale. Several vessels, after once falling out of tho hurricane, pursued their course, again overtook it, and plunged into tho heart of the storm, whore they suffered most serious dis asters. It appeal's probablo, and indeed certain, that noarly all tlio great loss and dnmago sus tained in 'this hurricane, might well have been avoided by a knowledge of tho laws of rotation and progression in these storms.” Our spaeo docs not permit us to enumerate other instances of circular scudding beforo the wind, given by Mr. Kedileld. His first discovery of this whirling motion of a storm was in that memorable one whose centre passed through Now England in September Bd, 1821. The centre being on hind, a fair opportunity was afforded by terra nrma obser vations, to show that, at the same instant, indiffe rent plneos, tho direction of tho wind could have been in no other than cycloidal. This was not an nounced to the world before 1881, when it was done through Stillman's .lonrnal ot Arts and Seionces. Every one who knows anything about meteoro logy, is’aware that, as a scicnco, its principles and general laws are altogether unsettled, it is not so far advanced as ohemistry or astronomy, or other natural seionces. Hence it is that what we now need, is a carelul collection of all the facts. In this way, (tho method of induction,) science hasalways made progress. It is tho business of theory to ac count for these facts. Mr. Redficld lias given one theory which lie supposes accounts for them; Mr. Thorn has given another theory. Rut what if both should fail to give the true causes of this circular motion; are wo therefore to deny tlio motion it self? Better go to work and collect tho data of meteorology; if unexpected and wonderful facts como to ligfih then modestly give a theory to ex plain them, but do not, in tile mere infancy of this Bcicuce, becloud it all in the mists aud fogs of dis pute about theories.

The Power ot Reltc.ion Illustrated.—A hus band aud wife, in New-Y’ork, who have lived in harmony and uninterrupted confidence for nearly a quarter of a century, have recently had a misun derstanding which grew out of somo trivial family circumstance. The wife took deep umbrage at some chiding remark of tho huabeud, and left him and abandoned her family of children. Her ab sence occasioned great distress, and efforts were made to bring her home; but she had resolved never agaiu to live with her husband. Her friends expostulated, her son entreated, and the neighbors who had noticed her long years of joy urged her to return to her family. The interference of these Earties only heightened her anger and intensified er hate, and she finally wandered off from tho scenes of home. She went to Cincinnati: was pur sued bv her friends, and hearing of their approach, left, the next that was heard of her, she nad ar rived in this city. Her husband and son arrived here on Saturday morning; sought an interview with her, whiefi, after muoh hesitation, she grant ed ; but only to give positive denial to their en treaties. The husband, bowed down with heavy grief, finally asked a clergyman to visit her. Tho priest eoiuplbad, and the result of his conference was deep contrition in the mother and wife, and a desire again to see her husband and son, and a consent to cheerfully return with them to New- York. Here was accomplished through the agency of religion, a blessing that never could have been accomplished by law or physical force. And this is always the czee wherever there is faith in God and a true reverenoo for His commands. — Boston Courier. Arcnos or Ladies.— An auction of unmarried ladies used to take place annually in Babylon. “In every district,” says the historian, “ they assem bled on a certain day of every year, all the virgins of marriagable age.” The most beautiful were first put up, and the man who bid the largest sum of monev gained possession of her. The se cond in personal appearance followed, and the bidders gratified themselves with handsome wives, according to tho depth of their purses. But alas! it seems there were 'ill Babylon some ladies for which no monev was likely tobe offered; yet these were also disposed of, so provident were the Eaby lonians. “ When all the beautiful virgins,” says the historian, “ were sold, the crier ordered the most deformed to stand up; and after he had open ly demanded who would many her with a small sum, she wa« at length adjudged to the man who would be satisfied with the least: in this manner the money arising from the sale of the handsome, served as’a portion to those who were either ot disagreeable looks, or that had any other imper . faction.

There is a trait in Irish character which I have always conceived to be naturaJly chivalrous and that is a general dislike to seek iu courts of law a momentary compensation for honot outraged through woman’s folly. In England, reparation for loss of services is considered a thing as correct ly reclaimable as lost of profit on a broken con tract for a cargo of seal-oil or guano, while in the sister kingdom, in nine cases out ot ten, the man who works upon the weakness of a wife, or trifles with the affections of a sister, is not subjected to the assentmentor amounts of ininry to the compu tation of a jury but summoned to give persona! satisfaction in the field. Many a fatal case re corded in the annals of Irish duelling, will tell how frequently profligate success has paid, in turn a bloody penalty. In caricaturing Milesian manners and feelings, it has been asserted that you could notlook at a Cork lady at a supper table but she graciously murrner ed, “Port, if jou please!” or dance a second lime with a man’s sister, that he was not certain to drop it next morning, before you dressod, to inquire whether your intentions to the young lady were matrimonial. That a number of unhappy mar riages have been effected by pistol-intervention, is too true ; and I recollect one sad cose where the love was on the lady’s side, and a fine spirited and honorable young fellow, with all before him that could promise happiness, was suddeulv re moved from existence, ero the third week closed that followed as bright a union as could bo fan cied. B wus remarkably handsome, and those per sonal advantages were enhanced by tho total un consciousness that he possessed them. A young lady saw, loved—and, remembering what Viola’s friends suffered from concealment, she saved the damask of her cheek, and intimated to the gcntle mun the stato of her affections. In reply, poor R candidly confided his situation to the lady. He had wooed and won the only woman he loved, and the next Monday would bless him with her hand. Harriette M was handsome, self-willed, rich, and proud as Lucifer. B ,in fortune, was her equal, but in birth a caste below. The circumstance however, that embittered her rejection—and if re jection bo humiliating to a man, how fearfully must it agonize the woman who, perverting con ventional usages, sues when she should be Bought —supplicates what she would conceal and is re jected 1 “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman spumed.” And for whom had her hand and fortune boon de clined ? Tho daughter of a village curate; rich in nothing hut youth, and innocoaec, and beau ty- The devil never prompts a delinquency that he does not manage to supply a tool. George Pem berton was Hariette’skinamsn, a Lieutenant in the —th, wrotchedly poor, and his regiment an expen sive one. HiH manners were assuming; and, with an empty purse, how many slights will an ill-tem pered individual experience, should ho have the misfortune of being gazetted to a crack corps?— George Pemberton was returning, on leave be tween returns, to raise a small sum of money ; or, tailing, to sell out: and he found his cousin Hur riette all alone, fivo minutes after the Chroni cle had been received, detailing in glowing lan guage, the beauty of tho bride, as being in perfect keeping with that of the handsomest man who for years, hud sworn conjugal allcgiences at the altar. “The happy couple,” the paper added, “had gone to to spend the honeymoon.” In such frames of mind, and under such circum stances, the cousins met. Pemberton, in right of his relationship, would have saluted his fair kins woman ; but she drew her face away, und looking contemptuously at his shsrt and shapeless person coolly observed— “ Palm to palm must do, George ; for i’faith ! you are too ugly even for a cousin to kiss !” “As handsome and as insolent as ever ! Why, Harriette, I expected to have seon a willow wroath and palid ciieek. You bear your throwover pa tiently.” Tho lady’s brow contracted, and she haughtily waved her hand. “Enough! no more of this. I know your busi ness here. You want two hundrod pounds, and mv father will not advanco as many pence, wore it to save your neck, and not your commission.” Then I must send in my papers, and leave tho —th.” “Unless some fool is found who will lend mo ney to a gentleman, who on six shillings a day, keeps a pair of hunters!” obsorvedtho lady. Pemberton looked sulky and displeased. “Nay, George, on my conscience, thou art ill favored enough, without knitting those beotie brows together. 1 have tho money. Would you earn it ? “I would go to the devil,” was the reply or ra ther than quit tho—thfrom sheer poverty What shall 1 do» She turned her dark and lightning eyes on his, and after a pause of half a minute, pointed with her Unger to the paragraph which announced the hated marriage. Then dropping her voice to an emphatic whisper, she laid hor lips close to her kinsmans ear— “ Bead I—Spoil me that honeymoon—tho money’s thine 1” And without awaiting a reply, sho liurriod to her own apartment. Never did the arch-enemy of man seloct a bet ter agont than George Pemberton. To a currish temper he united a sufficiency of animal courage to make him dangerous; and secret influences with which his revengeful kinswoman was totally unacquainted, fitted him for the task. 110 knew that his retirement from a regiment, officered by men of property, and to whom he had made him self obnoxious by tho idle uttempt of veiling pov erty under insolence, would bo felt a triumph.— But deadlier feelings toward the husband of Lucy Meadows, urged lnm on to vengeance. Ho had seerotly, but passionately, loved her ; and sho had neither tact, nor prudence to conceal a personal dislike, amounting to aversion. Keeping in tiic back ground tho real causes which induced him to attempt the life of one against whom lie eould plead no injury, an alleged slight to his fair cousin would, form “a very pretty quarrel,” and with a congenial spirit as demoniacas his own, he sot off without delay, to tho retired watering place, where the handsomest uud happiest pair that Connaught could produce, were, in tlieir own be lief, entertaining an elysiau existence. The barbarous punctilio of the times—provided a mau could boast gcntlo lineage—almost prohibit ed. a refusal to his call for satisfaction, .no matter liow flimsy the pretext might be, under which he demanded a hostile meeting, and Pemberton availed himself of it. It wasevening. B had been engaged in an swering congratulatory lettors, and had proceeded with his billet* to tho post. Lucy watched Jiim from the inn-window, and thought hor husband never looked so handsome as when, in turning the corner, ho smiled and kissed his hand. She gazod at the sun, sinking gloriously in the far west, and in u flood of gold hiding his broad disc in tho boundless waters of the Atluntie. Alas! sho little dreamed, poor girl, that “The moon that rose And promised rapture in the close” was fated to usher iu a night on whoso deop, deep darkness a ray of hope should never break again. Pemberton and his companion wavlaid their in tended victim; but R felt himself too blessed with Lucy to risk aught that could interrupt his happiness. Against the impnted offenso he tem perately remonstrated, and repudiated all inten tion of wounding the feelings of the lady, whoso imaginary wrongs were made tho basis to rest a quarrel on. A meeting hi declined ; at least until he could send for and consult a friend. From in solence, Pemberotn proceeded to verbal, and at last to personal insult. B 's was a brave and manly spirit. Good Heaven 1 to feel the Ruffian’s whip upon his shoulders, and not resent the out rage. His temper yielded ; he longed to wipe dis grace away in blood. He urged delay no longer, demanded instant satisfaction; hurried into the inn garden and within ten minutes from the time he waved a passing—little did he fancy it at last— adieu, B. was strctchod, in death upon the Bowling green! What Lucy suffered may be radily conceived. — Human misery could not go farther ; in one sheer plunge to reach, from tho very pinnacle mortal happiness, the dnrkest abyss of despair. The imagination must All out what fancy cannot pencil. And how did she feel—she, that guilty woman, when “The ruin that her raehness wrought,” was told her. * Before her emmissary had accomplished half his journey, Harriette's better feeling had regained as cendency, and, when too late, she would have giv en thousands to have recalled her hireling kins man. In charity, wo will hope that her wounded f ride sought vengeance short of her destruction. — udeed, the effect of the sad intelligence, when it arrived, would go far to prove that such was the case. She was convulsed, fevered, delirious for two months after, and recovered strength only by the loss of reason ; and in a few years after closed her wretched existence in an asylum. I often culled to memory the truth of Father Malachi’s duelling deductions—for the finale to the careers of Messieurs Andrews and Pemberton, proved them correct to the letter. Both died vio lent but inglorious deaths. Frank Andrews, some half-dozen years after ho had placed the -house of Sheive-nagarrcw in mourning, repaired to the metropolis on business. The evening he arrived in Dublin he contrived to fasten a quarrel on a linendraper, whose sister he had insulted at tho theatre, and hurried the devo ted tradesman by the first dawn of day to tho 1 ‘twelve acres.”* The hour of retribution had come for a man whose hand has never clasped before a deadlier im plement than a clofh-vard, oontrived to pop. par accident, a quarter of an ounce of lead into tho per icardium of Mr. Francis Andrews. Well, though he fell in the lap of honor, still, the artiste who sped him was a linendraper ; that was certainly a sad drawback; but, if Mr. An drews’ erit was not the thing, Mr. Pemberton’s was even less distingue. Never had homicide, by permission of Irish gen tlemen, promised more satisfactory results to its perpetrator. The transmission of Harriette and her father—the former to a madhouse, and the latter to a grave—occurred within the month, and as heir-at-law, Mr. George Pemberton succeeded to the management of the states and custody of the lunatic. Mr. Pemberton determined that during his life his fair cousin should continue in seclnsion, and fate gave a kind consent. It was a gray Autumnal evening, when Pem berton, who had taken formal possession of his uncle’s house, was carrying two strangers home to supper, whose acquaintance he had made that morning at the fair of town. It may be here necessary to remark that B—- had a natural bro ther, to whom he had been generous and kind, and who had been often overheard vowing eternal vengeance on the destroyer of his kinsman. He took his mother’s called 'William Hal ligan, but by the country people, was better known by the eota-iuuet of Liaume Vaddagh.t Eightmonths had elapsed since R was killed by Pemberton and people began to say that “George was safely seated in his saddle.” To this opinion others dissented. Liaume Vaddagh, before his kinsman’s death had been held in light estimation. lie drank freely, headed faction fights, and more than once, had been hinted at in chapel asosagay deceiver.— But a marvellous change since his brother’s death had come over his wild youth—whisky never passed his lips—no inducement, at fair or market, could rank him in a faction-fight—his youthful compeers declared he was bewitched—but older men shook their heads, and hinted that the young Liaume Yiddagb, under a quiet exterior, was of mischief than a loaded blunderbuas.’awThe old folks were right, for “Long William” only bode his time, like the red Kirkpatrick, to “strike sicker." Pemberton, although several monitory Junto were given him, remained in false security ; and yet there were times that the altered habits of this wild young man, when coupled with his omnipres ence in fair or market, or wherever else the place he frequented might be, went some length in crea ting suspicion in the mind of Pemberton. At tMk fair, on thisday, he onoo ante red “Long William” i more than once and to did others, who noticed to r each other a change equally remarkable in his ha -1 bits and appearance. Liaume Vaddagh had hither- C to worn the deepest monming and avoided spirits * as he would poison. On this day his aablss wen f discarded, and ha was gaily dressed ; while with to have departed. He drank deep to his brother’s memory, mentioning that this was the birthday of the deceased. One other circumstance requires a passing notice. , Lney had frequently requested that “Long Wil [ Ham" would come to see her, aware how strong , the attachment was, which had existed between i hormnrdered husband Jand bis wild half-brother. To every invitation the same answer wa*. greatfully returned—“He would dutifully wait upon her when his vow should be accomplished”—what the vow was none knew. When evening came, and Mr. Pemberton had ordered his horses to the inn door. Liaume Vad dagh wus seen, wrapped in his catamore, riding briskly, from the market-town. The distance to reach the principal entrance to the park would re quire a detour of at least two miles, while a back gate opened upon the road that William took.— There was no lodge, but Liaume Vaddngh was seen to gaiu admission by a key aud carefully lock the gate afterward. The scene that followed was thus described by one of the strangers. On reaching the back eutrauce of the park, Mr. Pemberton unlocked tho gate, and when he had \ again secured it, he turned to his guests and bade them a courteous welcome. ' “This is the first time I have had tho honor, gen tlemen to receive you at Mount Hazle—May I hope it will not bo the last?” The strangers’ | bowed ; while a voice that seemed an echo, repeat ed in hollow and distinct tones, "the laet ” I A gun exploded—Mr. Pemberton staggered and fell—tho | strangers’ horses went off at speed—one rider man aged to keep his saddle, while tho other was rough ‘ lv dismounted. The fallen horseman rollod into the ditch, and there, in mortal agony, he viewed the denouement of the tragedy. A tall man, wrapped m s frieze groat-coat, step ped leisurely from the back of the hedge and quiet ly approached the body. Ho looked-t'or imminent ' at the glossy eye and bloodless lips. “One barrel did tho business!” he muttered, and laid the gun in a slanting direction across the corpse. Then ta king a writteu paper from his pocket, he affixed it to the dead man's breast. All was methodically done ; a pin secured every corner of the pluourd, and these pins woro placed carefully in the enff of the murderer’s catamore. That done he eooly re loaded the discharged barrel. Tho strango'r ro , marked that the gun had been prepared for con cealment and assassination, for the barrels had been shortened by a foot. The murderer gazed on the dead body for a minute, but his hands nevor re proached the pockets of his victim, except whon he drew a gold watch from tho fob, muttered it was “half-past seven,” and cautiously returned the time piece. The murder being doncto his satisfaction lie led a horse into the avenue, unlocked and re fastened the gate, and rodo off loisurely. Half dead with fear, the strangerlistened to the horso trnmps, and crept cautiously from the ditch. lie shuddered as he looked at the body, for, on tho breast of tho doud, man a paper written in bold cha racters, bore the single sentence of “Blood for blood It Lucy K , in widow’s weeds, was sitting in hor drawing-room ; the gloom of twilight accorded with “soul’s sadness;” for tho period was ap proaching, when a being, orphaned long before it saw the light, was to claim a mother’s care. Her past was frightful to recall, her future fearful to look forward to. What should sho bo were her hour of trial safely over ? A widowed mother at twenty! Wrapped in sombre meditation, she did not hear tho opening door, until, moving across tho light, a tall figure arrested her attention, whon standing within two yards. “Who are you?” domandod the startlod mourner. “William Halligan, lady, como to bid you an eternal tarewell?” A deep low voice respond ed— “ Brother of him in whom every feeling in this young heart was centered, and ever will be, I give you a widow’s welcome—sit down, Wil liam.” “Lady, I dare not, for time is precious.” “How ofton have I sent for you, William 1” “And think you, lady, that a whisper from you would net have brought me here at midnight ? Bound however by a secret vow, I dared not see jon until I came to-night to say farewell.” “Where are you going, William ?” "lhat Heaven and aceidont only can decido.— Tho money, which he, whom w c both lament, bo queuthed me, was, months ago, transmitted to America, and there I sail to claim it.” “ 1 need protection, William. That hardened wretch—he whogobbed mo of my husband, rode past my window yesterday.” “lie will never repeat tho offence,” returned Long William calmly. “But time hurries forward and upon a few minutes with me, life and death may depend. Should the promised infant be a boy, give him this, as a dear memento.'’ and ho took a gun from beneath his great-coat, and laid it on the table Toll him that a cross is iilod deeply in tho barrel that sped—” “Whom —in the namo of heaven?” exclaimed tho lady in alarm. “The slayer of his father! And now, farewell forever 1” He fell upon his knees, caught tho lady’s hand in his, and covered it with kisses. A low shrill whis tle was hoard beneath the window. “It is tho signal. May heaven bless and oom fort you ? Lady, farewell, forever ?” Before tho words were heal'd distinctly, he van ished as ho entered. All knew that the homicide of George Pemberton was Liaume Vaddagh, and in a wild community, “With whom revenge is virtue.” his memory is still handed down as ono who did “the Stato some service.” Ho sought the back woods of the Illinois, led a hunter’s life, and died iu an Indian wigwam. It is only necessary to add that tho family of tho unscrupulous duelist have been extinct for thirty years, whilo the descendant of the victimized bridegroom is prosperous in worldly circumstan ces. The circumstances under which I witnessed this fatal encounter were purely accidental. I had been stopping at tiie same inn where poor B was passing his honeymoon, and had often admired a couple, whom nature, it would seem had created for each other. The evening when the wicked deed took place—for Pemberton’s friend gave the false signal, and R was shot before ho could raiso his pistol—l was in my bed-rooin making a trifling change in my toilet, preparatory to an ex cursion along the cliffs, when without tho custo mary knock upon the door in rushed the chamber maid— “ Sir! sir!” she exclaimed, inn voice of wild alarm ; “run down stairs, for God’s sake! They’re going to shoot the handsome gentleman!” Before I could ask a question, or comprehend what the frightened girl meant, pop went a pistol in the garden. I jumped to th# window—it over looked the bowling green—and there, upheld by the gardener and a boy, 1 saw a gentleman in the agonies of death. Half undressed, I hurried down stairs, and saw the two men mount tlieir horses and ride coolly away from the yard, and on reach ing tho scene of action, found that with poor B , suffering was at an end, and life was extinct. Thirty years after the sad ovent, I was marching a wing of the —d through Johnstown, whore we were to halt for the night, when 1 received a visit from the squire to invite me to dinner, and offer me a bed. Both were willingly accepted; for the village hostlcrio was ill-kept and sadly overcrowd ed. O.i inquiry, I found that the gentleman to whoso hospitality I was about to be indebted, was tho son of poor It , whom I had seen shot at East Port; and, as the reminiscence might be un pleasant, I kept it to myself. 1 was most kindly entertained, and after supper—in those days a favorite meal in Ireland—was conducted by a gray haired attendant to my sleeping chamber. “ Have you been long in the family ?” I inquir ed. “ I have lived in Johnstown under three gener ations.” “ Then you remember some family changoa in your time, John ?” “ Ah, many,” said tlic old man; “ some for tho better, and others for the worse.” “ You lived with tho father of Mr. B ?” “ I lived with the best master and the hand somest man that ever fell in a wicked duel.” “ I saw him shot.” Tho old man started, crossed himself devoutly, and poured out a supplication for mercy to tho de parted. “ May I ask your name, sir?” I told it. “1 remember it well. You were the young of ficer who held the poormastcr in youranns, when yon sent the gardener aud his boy to feteh the doctors.” “ lam that person, and would have acted as your master’s second, could I bavq reached ’ the bowling-green in time. But they mado short work of of it.” “ Ah, they did, indeed,” said the old man, “but the vengeance of tho Almighty has pursued them hard.” “ Did he who killed your master come to an untimely end ?” I demanded. “Come into the next room, and I wili tell you, sir.” He lifted the candles from the table, and led me into an adjourning apartment. It seemed a sort of private room or study. There were a couple of book cases, whose shelves were tolerably filled, a collection of stuffed birds, and a glass press above the mantel-pieces, to which, when he had placed the lights on the marble slab, he selected and ap plied a key, and from two pigs within lifted down an antiquated weapon. 1 look the gun and ex amined it carefully. In its day it was, no dAbt, held in high estimation. The pans and touch-holes were bushed with gold, and the mountings of the stock were elaborately finished, the finishings being silver. But the barrels were shortened by a foot. , , . “Why, John, these barrels have been ratted. How short they are!” “They were found long enough to do the work of vengeance ! returned the old man, drily.

Capt. Laurie was or dered out of the Bay, and told not to return, and was forbidden to anchor there or anywhere in the Bav of St. Lawrence nnder a penalty of £2OO.

London, Sept. 15, 1852. Dear Republican :—Drawn by that irresistible charm which invests every spot which has given birth to a brilliant mind, been the scene of its bud ding glories, or the theatre of its full development. I found myself one morning in the little town of Stratford-upon-Avon. Here I put up at the “Bed Horse Inn” of Irving memory. The cozy little parlor, of which he makes mention, is stiil to be seen. A fine engraving of the author graces the left wall as you enter. Here lot me observe, by way of parenthesis, that our American writer is highly appreciated in this country—hisprodnetious familiar to every one. I have not read his notices of Stratford upon Avon and New stead Abbey since a little college boy, but 1 well remember they are among his happiest sketches. After some small talk with miue host, who is as usual in England, a bustling, fat, good uatured fellow, and making some inquiries alter the objects^my visit, I plum ed my imiuagination uud set forth on a Shakspca rcan ramble. A few minutes walk up Ilendey-street brought me in front of a hut blaekoncd with age, aud which among tho tidy cottages around it, looked like a dark spot on a beautiful picture. Untho tow win dow hung an old sign-board—tiie paint almost gone—with tho words faintly discernible, “ The imnmrtal Shakapeare waa born in this houae.'' On entering tho doorway and stoning down upon the earthern floor, 1 was’met by tno guardian spirit of tho premises, a smiling, conrtesying dame, whose business it is to entertain pilgrims with chit-chat, and show them the consecrated parts of tiie con secrated building. This last it docs net require long to do. From the ground floor runs a narrow and winding stair, which by ascending conducts you into birtU-apurtuient of the' “divine” poet. It is an obloug room with low eeiliing. The walls are as black as pencils can make them, for like all places of the kind, they are defaced with countless autographs. The floor, though probably not as ancient as the building itself, is worn into large holes. One small window lights tiie apartment, out of which doubtless little Slmkspeare peeped many a time, particularly on a rainy day, whon lie looked wistfully into tho’ street, but was kept back by mamma’s apron strings. The articles which at ono time were exhibited in this room—the poet’s chair, <tc., have boon removed, and very properly, for they only served to render the matter farcical. All now to be seen are a lew copies of the poet’s works, aud somo bronzo medals representing on ono side the monumental bust as seen in the ciian cel of Stratford Church, and on tho reverse tiie house in which tho renowned bard was born. Tito medal is neatly got up, and reflects credit upon the artist. The representations uro very faithful, and this exquisite memorial of the matchless Shakspeare should be exceedingly acceptable to the thousand strangers who yearly flock to his sacred birth place aud tomb. After lingering some time, amusing myself with the laughter loving house keeper, and taking a peep into the old garut, witcro doubtless little Will frequently played “seek and seek” with tho contemporaries or Ills school days, and which now is filled with mouldering trash and cobwebs, presenting a most “rustifiod, fasti tied, mustified air,” I descended into the street and di rected my footsteps towards tho church, passing an antique looking building where Shakspeare is said to have received his early education. The church is in the midst of a lovely ground. Around it, in broken fragments, Ho memorials of tiie dead. Tall and wide spreading elms shade the fallen tombstonos. The ground is broken and grassy and the Avon glides slowly through tho seeno. An avenue of old lime trees, whose limbs, meeting, form a perfect arch, leads to tho church entrance. The duy was stormy, and the wind whistled and the old elms cracked and bowed down, giving forth sol emn and dirge-liko sounds. I wandered over tho scene stooping over the grey tombstones, endeav oring to deoiphor what time’s effacing fingers had well nigh removed. It was very evident that Old Morality had not visitod that church yard for some timo, and when he does come ho will havea heavy task bofore him. With the assistance of the sex ton I entered tho chapel. The edifice being very ancient lias much about it of the curious and quaint in design. It speaks of the olden time. In its deop niuchcs stand the monuments, and around its walls hang the tnaiguia of the departed. Passing down tho navo into tho chancel 1 stood upon the slab which covers tho remains of the poet, and bearing this well known incription— “ Good friend, for Jesus’ sake forbear To dig the dust, enclosed here. Blest be the man that spares these stones, And curst he ho Hint moves my bones. An imprecation which certainly implied that ho had u strong desire to remain where lie is. West minister would probably hnvo been honored with his remains, had not tho terrible inscription had the effect of proserving his ashes intact. Near his resting plaoo, in a niche in the wall, is tho celebra ted bust, as it was taken from life, probably is a representation of the poet. There are some lines bolow said to have beon written by Ben Johnson. Shakspeare has never had any great monument raised to his memory. Indeed, ft won’d have been a. mookery of his fame and undying worth. How well Milton bos alluded to this: What needs my Shakspeare for his honored bones The labor of an age In piled stones, Or that his hallowed reliques should be hid | Under astar-y-pointing pyramid? Dear son of memory—great heir of fame— What need’s thou such weak witness of thy name ? Thou in our wonder and astonishment Hast built thy self a live-long monument. Woro tho poot to return now, he would scarcely recognize tho old place of his childhood’s sports andlatter days. It lias risen into quite a town—a model of neatness and beauty, fully worthy of its great son who has conferred upon'it so much im mortality, and thrown around it a glory such as genius alouo can give. The stone feeling that directed me to Stratford upon Avon; that took me to Abbotsford and Ayr; that visitod me at Rvdal and Skiddaw, also lured me to Newstead Abbey aud its vicinity. Byron’s iB the greatest name in the catalogue of modern poets. No writer ever crcuted so much interest, or has so worked upon the feelings of mankind.— He played in literature a part similar to that which Napoleon did in arms. The world was not pre pared for it, and was stunned by the electric shook of one of tho most powerful butteries of genius which nature has over placed at the disposal of any mortul. In truth, “He touched his harp, A-’ 11 ! nations heard entranced.” His cheokered life aud melancholy career soften the reproach which many are disposed to heap upon his character, while to the majesty of his muBO, all uuiv Tsally how. There is'a wild fas cination about the man, and every memorial of his life lms all the potency of a spell. What ever ob ject claimed his pen, drew fresh immortality or was invested with a charm it had not before.— Beautiful Venice “throned on her hundred isles,” Rome, Naples, in fact, all Italy, fair always, have caught new beauty. Greece with her “august Athena” is more classical—Spain more romantic even bull fights appear less barbarous, while “old ocean” has lost its terrors, and bceome as it wore, a house-hold god. It is not surprising, then, that Newstead Abbey, the loved home of Byron, should have become a plnce of pilgrimage. Thousands gather there to look upon tho scones he looked upon, and to feast over overy relic of that peculiar genius. Even its proprictor„Col. Wildinan, seems so perfectly under a spell, that his whole life, since he came in pos session, lias been devoted in improving the place, rearing, as it were, a monument to the memory of its last owner. With all the improvements, liow ever, everything Byroniul is strictly and religiously preserved. In the poet’s day all wus dilapidation und decay. Tho woods and lino groves had been cut down and laid waste by its previous owner, William, justly entitled the “Wicked Lord By ron.” Evon the building was for the most part roofless, having suffered greatly in the civil war, which Lord William was not disposed, and the slender income of his successor did notenable him, to repair. Byron frequently lamented tiie forlorn condition of the old mansion uud its grounds.— You remember lie says: “ Through thy battlements, Newsteail, the hollow winds whistle! Thou, tho ball of my fathers, art gone to decay.” And again he says: Newstead 1 what saddening scene of change is thine 1 Thy yawning arch betokens sad decay ; The last and youngest of a nolile line, Now holds thy mouldering turrets in his sway. Deserted now, he scans thy grey worn towers, Thy vaults whore dead of fuedal ages sleep ; Thy cloisters pervious to the wintry showers These—these he views, and views them but to weep. To Col. Wildman. th# friends and admirers of Lord Byron owe a heavy debt of gratitude. He has, as I said reared a monument to Ills memory. The time-honored place has grown green again.— Nearly or quite half a million sterling has been spent upon it, which lias nearly impoverished its owner. Every facility is extended by him to stran gers, and he seems more the agent for exhibiting the establishment than as its worthy and noble proprietor. Bac. London, Sept. 15, 1852. Dear Republican: —My visit to Newstead was fraught with such peculiar pleasure that I am tempted to give some account of it, hoping that it may be agreeable, as the subject, at least, is to every one so interesting. It was one of those days yon “read of”—and when I say that you know exactly what kind of day it was—that taking an early railway train from Nottingham, a ride of some flfteri miles brought me to the littlo village of Limby. Here I disbur dened myself of all useless encumbrances, reserv ing an umbrella only as protection against those extempore showers for which this climate is re markable, and taking a northerly course, set out on foot to Newstead, some two miles distant. Tiie snn shone brightly. Feathery clouds flit across the iky, the toys of the fresh morning breeze. Tho hare and the rabbit wore out of their eoverts, nipping the sweet scented grass, and pricking up their ears, pause in their morning men! to see tiie stranger pass. Enlivened by the scene around me I went on at a brisk, pace, at one time through fields and along hedged lanes, at another through hazel and hawthorn tickets, and glens of as ask and oak, and anon over brow ofsolitary hill. On emerging from a dark wood and ascending a gently rising hillcrowned by a single tree, Newstead’Abbey stole slowlv on my view. On the hill’s summit I paused. From the Abbey tower floated a flag with the cognizance of England—a custom of the gee try in this country of denoting their presence—anil silence rested on the valley below me. On the lower lake floated numerous water-fowl, among which a solitary white Swan glided with arched neck, the seeming queen of the water domain. Bundrv pieces of sculpture ornament the shores. Beyond the lake and towards the mansion rise a luxuriant garden with its terrace and shadv walks —backed by a deep and solemn grave. Bolling hills meet the eye m all directions, crowned with clusters of larch and spruce. Turning to the left, I passed down the road, along the skirts of a beeclien wood—reach the water-fiiil from the up per lake—and passing "the little stream a few steps bring me to the western front ofthe venerable pile. Near me to the west, stretches out the upper lake —which doubtless is an artificial pond—formed for utilitarian purposes by the old monks, who al ways settling near fine water courses, and in the midst of a fruitful country, in spite of tlieir appa rent holiness and religious seclusion had a lively sense of the good things of this life. This lake’s farther shores are dignified with one or two mimic forts, with rich woods in the back ground. The Abbey presentsa mixtureofthe antiqueand modern. To the left projects the old wall of the western end of the nave, clothed in ivy. Its but tresses, fantastic heads, sculptures anil exquisite moulding are worn by time and weather. A huge doorway, which was the western entrance of the church, allows the eye to pass into the garden and enclosed grounds—displaying the monument of Byron’s immortal dog “Boatswain.” To the right ot' this door, the old wall continues some one hun dred feet. Behind this part the old building has been fitted up anew—excepting two or three rooms which the poet occupied, and which remain as lie left them. To the extreme right the structo re with its tower is almost entirely modern, projecting ont with a wing to the front and flanked by four large lime trees. After the usual prefaratory contemplation which everv one indulges in on an occasion ofthe kind, I approached a Gothic door with large bronze knocker—near the modern portion of tbe building —rang the bell, and was shortly admitted. My conductiese—l cannot withstand paying her a passing notice, for upon my word sho deserves it —was the honse-keeper, Ann Shepherd, who cer tainly fills th# office of guide better than any indi vidual I evar mat ina similar voaation. Shesearn •d imbued with the Kaxit of the piaee, and hearti- ly enters into the poetry of tho thing, laying off Byron’s verse in a style he would not be ashr.med of. “In point of fact,” she plays her part to per fection. And now for my tour through the rooms, l’assing through tho “entrance hall” to the left, I was eonduoted into tho “reception room,” a largo apartment with stained windows, and ascending a stair case was shown into“ Lord Byron's bed oham ber.” It is a neat room, the bed and furniture kept in the same state they woro left by the poot. In entering you pass through a little dressing room. Portraits of the faithful Joe Murray and tho pugil ist Jackson, hang upon the wails. I was next ta ken to the “haunted chamber,” occupied in By ron’s time by his page. Passing through tho libra ry, an oblong, oak-panuolled room, roofless in tho poet’s day, and taking note of some portraits— Nell Gwynno, Are., by Laly, Sir John Byron, the first owner of Newstead, and several of the Wild man family—tho corridor is crossed, and I cuter tho “tapestry bed room.” This apartment wus also roofiess" in Bvron’s timo. It was originally for tho use of Charles 11, and has been splendidly repaired by the present proprietor, with paintings aud tapestry to correspond exactly with the Stuart times, in honor to tho occasion which brought about its original erection. I was then conducted through various rooms, all raised from dilapida tion, and about which there is nothing to remind us of Byron, with tho exception of one which con tains a portrait of “Boatswain,” taken by a painter of Nottingham. “The grand drawing room” is quite imposing, some fine paintingsgraoo tho walls. The noted portrait of Byron by Phillips, occupies a conspicuous place. This portrait, yon remember, was taken from life, and represents tho poet to be handsomer than any likeness I have hitherto seon. Col. Wild man. who was tho poet’s friend mid monitor at school, and by whom tho portrait was bought from the artist while Byron was alive, considers it a perfect likeness. If so, he was certainly a hand some man according to my notion of that descrip tion of person. In u cabinet at one end of this room is deposited the skull, whieh was found in an old stone coffin dug up in the elmnecl of tho Abbey Church when Byron was having somo ex cavations mado, and which you recollect was used by him as a wine goblet. It waa customary in By ron’s early life at the Abbey, whon ho had a merry party of youthful gents, after tho dinner cloth had been removod, to pass this skull round tho circle, filled with Burgundy. It is neatly mounted in silver, aud bears tho inscription which is familiar to every one— Start not 1 nor deem my spirit fled,” &o. “ The grand dining hall" is also a fino room—* was used by Byron and his youthful friends at one time, as a shooting gallery. Quite changed now! A small room which the poet used as a dining room adjoins this. Tho cloisters form a central court, still “ pervious to tho wintry showers.” I n tho middle stands the ancient fountain of the Ab bey. After peeping into Byron’s bath-room which opens to tho cloisters, luid the stono collin of tho departed monk, in which it is said tho poot desir ed to lie buried, my survey of the building was finished. The old gnrdonor then took mo through the garden and grounds. Tho first object of in terest is the “Byron Uak” planted by the poet, and alluded to in his verso. It is green uml flourish ing. 1 next entered tho “DovU’b Wood," a deep ly shaded grove, und had my attention soon culled to a beech upon which is cut— Byron, 20 September, 181 A, Augusta. This is an interesting momoriul. Tho letters are nearly overgrown, hut tho tree is now dead, and precautions will be taken that tho rolio should be preserved. Tho love of Byron for his sister iB a bright phase of his life ami character. Her name is enshrined in his verse. When the world grew dark, lie felt he had u sister’B lovo, and wus con tent. Among many others, liow sweet are thoso lines, “ When fortune changed and lovo fled far, Aud hatred shafts flew thick and fast, Thou wert tiie solitary star Which rose and set not to the last. ******** Oh ! blest be thine unbroken light, That watched me as a seraph's eye, And stood between me and the night, Forever shining sweetly nigh.” This sister—tho Honorablo Mrs. Leigh—diod last October. While at News.tcud, I had given mo the particu lars of the first and only visit mado there by Ada Augusta—the Countess of Lovelace—Byron’s only child, whom ho uffectingly calls “solo daughter of his house and heart.” This visit was mado two yours since, and was brought about by the instru mentality of Col. Wildman. All know how sho was kept from all knowledge of her father’s histo ry. Servants were discharged that were suspcctod to have made the slightest allusion to him. It is not astonishing then, that a visit to Newstead should have peculiarly melancholy associations. Still, us sho has never been taught to say “father,” and to l'eel an interest in his memory, Bho could scarcely realize the solemnity ofthe visit—although it is said, at times she betrayed considerable feel ing, particularly in her futhe'r’s bed-room, as wellas at his burial phieo in Hucknall Church. It is rela ted that on retiring the first night after her arival —after a day spent in making her acquaintance with the memorials of her neglected sire—sho ob served : “Well, Col. Wildinan, 1 fool that I am go ing to restin the tomb of my ancestors;” to winch the Col replied! “No,Lady Lovelace, not in the tomb of your ancestors, but in u monument 1 liuvo raised to your father’s memory, and 1 think you wili confess it is a very beautiful ono.” It is pain ful to know that thin Lady is now iu a dying con dition, under the torriblo affliction of a cancer.— She is now in this city, and has her mother with her. Hoiv strango tho coincidence 1 She is just thirty-seven years of age, and but two or tlireo months older than her father at his death. ’l’was delightful to loiter iu thoso noble grounds —to promenade tho terrace walks, and thread the mazes of the luxuriant garden, in returning to wards the mansion, I stopped and drank from a clear and crystal spring—a favorite of Byron’s. Tho bust moment of my visit was spent at “ Boat swain’s” monument, the inscription upon whieh is known to overy schoolboy. No dog has over been so much honored. Ho will live in memory when millions of immortal beings are, on earth, lostiu oblivion. Bidding Newstead adieu, after having spont several hours there, 1 took the road to “Annesly Hall,” some three miles distant. Day was waning, and I was satisfied with gazing at the old Hall, from a neighboring hill, whence it was just visiblo iu a dense und splendid wood. I had to visit Hnckiudl and my time was growing limited.— Turning to tho “Annesly hills,” I entered a soli tary avenue of elms, which lor u mile fringed a ridge of these hills. It is an ancient avenuo, and was formerly the entrance-way to an old castle which stood at its southern extremity. It was here that Byron and his Mary were wont to meet —that sweet passage in his life, whieh was des tined to exert so painful an influence on his sub sequent existence. His early love, no doubt, was tiie hinge upon whieh his fortunes turned. Near the a venae is the “gentle hill, green, and of mild declivity,” where met “two beings in the hues of youth,” so beautifully described in “ the Dream." The scene train that hill is strikingly pieturesquo. In the poet’s own truthful language, it is Os woods and corn-fields, and tiie abodes of men Scattered at intervals—” Tho “diadem of trees, in circular array,” has been cut away by order of Mr. Musters, who did not fancy having tho hill a place of resort. John Musters, Esq., the husband ofthe unhappy Mary, died two years since. There is no one in tho vicinity to hallow his memory, for he was a man not respected in life, not less for his character than his unkind treatment of his unfortunate wile. A wulk of two miles was necessary to reach Ilucknail. I arrived there as twilight was deepen ing into night. The sexton conducted me into the village church, and, by the light of a solitary can dle, I read over the memorial tablets of the Byron family, many of whom sleep beneath that old cha pe! floor. But, it is the “ last and youngest of u noble lire”—the gifted but unhappy poet—who draws daily pilgrims to that resting-place of the dead. No ono else claims a thought—all other monuments pass unnoticed—and the oyo seems alone attracted by tho plain Grecian tablet on the southern wall of the chancel, hearing an inscription whieh, though simple, yon never get tired of read ing over. I left tho solemn scene, inwardly ex claiming—in which I feel that thousands join— “ Then let his failings be buried in his tomb, And guardian laurels o’er his ashes bloom.” ’Twas late when I reached mine inn at Limly. 1 had walked far—some ten miles—during the day, which will do very well for an American. I had spent a day, however, which will not soon ho for gotten—not “ while Memory holds her scat.” Hoping I have not been tiresome, I remuln Yours, <fce., Bao. Three Thousand Savages attacking an Ameri can Vessel. —Wo mentioned yesterday, that the American brig Marv Adeline, A. Oaksmith, of ’ New York, master, liad arrived at Rio de Janeiro, from the coast of Africa, where she had a most perilous and thrilling adventure with the savages “n.Congo River. Private letters, received in New York, state that “ she was bound into the river with a valuable cargo from Kio Janeiro, and, on round ing Siinrk Point, unfortunately got aground I near the shore. The natives, seeing her helpless condition, flocked to the shore to plunder the ves sel, and, in tho coarse of the day, tlieir numbers amounted to some three thousand. They made a furious and savage assault on the vessel, which was most bravely and gallantly defended by Capt. Oaksmith and his crew tor some hours, till the Bri tish armed brigantine Dolphin, whioh was fortu nately in the river, came to her rescue, and saved ! the vessel and cargo and the lives of ail on board, though not without the loss of life on the part of the savages. On tiie following day, tho British steamship Firefly came into the river, and prompt ly rendered every possible aid, together with the Dolphin, to relieve the Marv Adeline, whieh wus at length got afloat, and enabled her to pursue her ’voyage without much loss ordatnage.— Savh.

Baker, of Boston, arrived at Lobos Islands from Acapulco about the 18th ult., and was ordered off by a Peruvian brig of war, but refused to leave, aud wus lying off'and on, await ing tho arrival of Commodore McCauley, in pur suance of instructions from his owners, aud in conformity to authority of the Government of the United States, as contained in the letters of Se cretaries Webster and Graham, of which ho had certified copies. Capt. Baker makes no mention of any other force at those islands, but states there were two vessels loading there on account of the Peruvian Government—one English and the other American. Captain Baker boarded tho English steamer from V a!puraiso, on her way to Panama, and sent this intelligence by her. The U. S. frigate Raritan was left at Valparaiso by the steamer, whither the instructions of June were sent from Panama.— Malt. Amer. T' e New York Commercial Advertiser attaches no importance to this information. It says At our latest dates from Valparaiso, September 2, Commodore McCauley was still there, with no intention, apparently, of visiting the Lobos islands. Yet it is morally certain that the instructions of June 8, sent to him from the Navy Department, requiring him immediately to sail thither, had readied him long before, The natural and indeed almost only conclusion is that tbe despatch coun termanding those instructions had also been re ceived by him. If so, any fear of a oolHsion be tween the naval forces of the two republics is at an cud, and tiie Manlius and the other vessels, as they subsequently arrive, will be doomed to a severe disappointment witli reference to tbe main object of the expeditions, and the owners will bavo to seek their remedy from their own Government, under whose guarantee of protection the enter prise was undertaken. The Manlius belongs to Boston, where her own ers reside, for it is expressly said, in all the ac counts published this morning, that she is “ not one ofthe fleet chartered by parties in this city.” It is also said that C’apt. Baker “sent this informa tion to his owners.” Yet we find no mention of the matter iu the Boston papers.
