Dedication of tie Fourth Volume.
To Fletcher Webster, ho/.- My Deur Sir I ded
icate one volume of tnesc speeches to the memory
of four deceased brother and sister, and 1 am de
voutly thankful that i am able to inscribe another
to you, my only surviving child, aud the object ol
my affection aud hopes. You have been of an age
at the appearance of most of tiiese speeches, and
writings, at which you were able to read and under
stand them ; and iti the preparation of some of
them, you have taken no unimportant part.—
Among the diplomatic papers, tiiere arc several
written by yourself wholly or mainly, at the time
when official and confidential connections subsist
ed between us in the Deportment of State. 'Die
principles and opinions expressed in tneso pro
ductions, are rucL tut I believe to be essential to
the preservation of the Union, the maintenance wf
the constitution, aud the advancement of the coun
try to still higher stages of prosperity and renown.
Tnesc objects have constituted my pole star during
the whole of my political life, which has now ex
tended through more thun half the period of my
existence of the government. And 1 know, the
dear non, that neither parental authority nor pa
rental example, is necessary to induce yon, in
whatever capacity, public or private, yon may be
called to act, to devote yourself to the accomplish
ment of the same ends.
Yota Affectionate Father.
Dedication of the Fifth Volume. .
To J. K'. Faige, Esq.— My Dear Sir The
friend snip which has subsisted so long between us
springs not more from our close family connection
than fr >m similarity of opinions uud sentiments.
J count it among the advantages and pleasures of
my life; and l pray you to allow me as a slight,
but grutefui token of my estimate of it, to dedicate
to you tills volume of my speeches.

Dr. B. S. Taylor, writes to the Detroit (Midi.)
Free Truss that he boa discovered a now and sure
specific fertile Fovorand Ague. The account of his
t discovery, u- published in the Free Tress, will be
likely to interest our medical readers :
“ Certain accidental occurrences led rao to make
i tonic experiments with u plant which grows in the
woods of Michigan; but wliiuh hus never been ‘
supposed to possuss medicinal properties. The
result of experiments has been tooonvinco mo and ■
ull v ho have tried it, that this plunt is quite it>
certain a remedy for ague, intermittent and re- J
mi’.tont fever, a* quinine. It has been thoroughly
tried during the past summer without u single
fuliure. Its mime I have never been able to find '
in any Dispensatory or Mcdioal Botany, and I uni
confl lout I rum various considerations that it lias ne- '
ver been used in domestic practice. It is not among
thill kind of plants from which ull ague medicines 1
have hue it derived; there is not the slightest hitler
or pungent taste to the plant or any of its prepare- '
tioiia. I claim, therefore, to have made a discovery j
—to have used a plunt wliieh Lbs never been used 1
before, and found it possoasod of important modi- I
cal properties. The preparation wliioli is do- 1
signed to lie official, and to which has been g'von 1
the tiainu of Upocuru, is simply tlio plantpul ver- J
seo 1 and gfcmnd with sugar. An ounoir of this
preparation will goes far as a drachm of qniuine. I
It is admissible in ovory ca«o wbero quinine is. 1
Ills as certain us that medicine tourroatiho parox '
ysins, it is much cliouper, it will cos. loss than half I
the present i*rleo of quinine, it lisa no bad taste )
whatever, and is never followod by uny of those 1
unpleasant effects which follow thu uso of quinine.
J have given it in ton timos tho described dose J
without bsil effects. Indeed I liuvo never boen 1
able to diseovorany effuets from it, used in what- f
ever doses, except a cessation of the ohilla and J
fevers. The disease is not liablo to return in a 1
week or two, as when brokou tip with quiuino.” 1
ICi-> i>u Jamtmo.—Tho Mi]ip Grey Eagle, at Phil

On tho 10th September tho Emporor and Empress

Tho notional hymn wn», at the same moment,

elegantly decorated with tings, drapery and flow
ers. Two elegant chairs wore provided for thoir
majesties. Tito Emperor proceeded, in company
with Mr. Thompson, the chief engineer, to osamiue
tho ditl'erunt parts of the ship, and appeared much
delighted with her machinery and accommoda
tions. In the meantime, tho Empress was enter
tained by Mrs. Flotoher and Mrs. Kent, who were
presented to heron tho ooatsiou. When the Em
peror returned to the forward deok, ho was re

Abbott Lawrknob. —This distinguished oitizen
who for several years poet lias represented his
country at the Court of London with great ability
nnd wisdom returned to his homo at Boston on
Thursday in the steamer Niagara. In tho Liver
pool Times of Get. l*th we find the following arti
cle respecting him:
A distinguished American, Mr. Abbott Lawrence
leaves till) shore* nf England this duv for his native
country, and it is needless to aay, that he carries
with littn tho respect of every member of tho Gov
ernment to which he was accredited, aa well as
of those who succeeded them in office, while the
numerous private friendships which ho lisa formed
on tills side of the Atlantic will experience no in
considerable regret at tho severance. It has otten
boon the good lortono of tho American Union to
lie represented at the Court of St. James’s by able
and experienced men ; but we know of no instance,
during recent years, in which this fact has been
more palpably brought out than in the person of
the Minister'who now returns to Washington. Os
course, a diplomatist cannot take no part in the
politics ofthe nations to wliioh his Government
Muds him out: but there are groat -nd vital ques
tioos in tho discussion of which all persons are pri
vileged to tube part-questions of un enuoblingcha
racter, hearing upon science and literature and
the education of a people, which influence national
character oven more than the turmolts of political
strile. On suoli questions an accomplished man
like Mr. Lawrence is at homo, and, ns tho opinion
of an intel.iiflent stranger is always mi object of in-*
teres!, tho British public oouli) not fail to listen
witli attention to tlie comparison which this gen
thunmi drew, a couple of years back in Liverpool
and Manchester; between tho stato of education,
in Kugiaud and the gdmirablo machinery fir the
saute cud which prevail* in the United States. It
wx in no unfriendly spirit that Mr. Lawrence
touched this delicate subject, lor the voice was
* one of warning and gentle reproof. Bo showed
that the defect was the weakest feature iu tho na
tion. and that, without* remedy, it would be irn
poeihtefer uain future years to remain in the van of
civilization. We mention ttiis ns one incident in
the earner of this distinguished Republics', who
cannot fail, at no remote day to play* a still more
itmvirraat part in the great theatre of American
politics.
Tire Bumsu tt’sff India Ksoimknt*.— The West
Indiiu regiment* are entirely recruited from the
coast of Africa, no Weet Indian negro, ou account
of their notorious pusillanimity, being allowed to
enlist, the ruerniting officer give* them any name
that enters into hi* hood. Comparatively few of
the soldier* speak English, their knowledge of the
language being confined to the word* of command.
Tiie siK'i.tl position a* full private* in her majesty’s
aerviea* is no much higher titan that of any other
of the Weet Indian negroes, their pride in their
uniform *o great, end their difference in language
jutd disjositiotl so complete, that the pure Atnoans
as*-n'iate very little with the negroes of the islaud,
an i in the event of any disturbances, tar from hav
ing any disposition to fraternise with them against
the whites, tlie greatest difficulty has been txperi- 1
eneed, iu some recent riots at Triuidad and else- ;
where, to restrain their almost ferocious hatred of ;
! heir black brethren. The foot is, the black soldier is '
proud of is position—that most valuable of all
Uio feelings that can animate a soldier—» much
superior to urv that he could ever have ho|>ed to
have attained iu hi* owu coon try, and moreover,
has never bee it exposed to any of that debasing
treatment, which In moat countries has created an
envious hatred of the whiica.—SVlmm'i ItombU*

Ambassador rtoa. Pitcairn’s Island. —Among
the passengers by the Orm-co steamer, which ar
r'ved at Southampton, Eng., on the fith October,
from ihe East Indies, was on inhabitant of Pit
cairn's Island, eelehrated aa the resident;* of the
dcivndant* of the mutineers of the Bounty, lie
» a* the tKirerof de-patchee from Admiral Moores
l,» iu the Pacific Ocean, and his object in coming
to England is to obtain some asabtauce for the re
ligious euucatiou of tlie people of Pitcairnaia
laud,andto induce the government to allow Eu
giish ships of war to visit the Island otioner thau
U*t v now do. The individual alluded to U %bout
sixty vears of age, and about twenty-five years ago
visited Pitcairn, and was allewed to remain on the
Island a* a religious teacher and medi
eine. He is almost the only stranger ever allowed
to remain at Pitcairn, and td"bs> considered as one
of the community. The inhabitant* of the Island
in question, numbered, when he left, eighty-six fe
males and eighty-eight males, whu are nearly all
descended of the Bonuty mutineers, and three
Tahitan women. They are still remarkable for
their moral and religionsaharaoter, chiefly through
tin t . aching and example of Adams, the chief mu
tineer.
Tat Mrs.iocsx Railroad.—' The tlfty milee of this
road belonging to Columbus have been completed,
and it tr&iu was to hare passed over yesterday, as

and Mott is putting on six horse coaches which will
pas* over the distunoe in flve hours. As wu have
id rcody stated, the connection from Fort Valley will
doubtless be completed by tha first of Marchnext.
The iron is all received, and ore long the staging
will be reduced to ten or twelve mile* by another

A correspondent states that the rise in the price
of British Railroad iron lias been so great that ma

] have a caution to give our iron-masters. Thev
must go into the manufacture of rails, if they do it
at a I, v itk the rid- of hating the duty on the British
article entirely repealed. An attempt to do this
will be made in Washington this winter. The nu
merous roads in progress and wanting iron, will
crowd upon Congress to get rid of the duty. The
agt nts of the British manuafacturea will Vie at their
side helping them.
Fojib or the Dead Lf.ttebs.—During the last
quarter, one thousand seven hundred and eighty
one letters were returned to the Dead Letter Office,
in the Tost Office Department. These contained
$10,631, in tiie aggregate. Recently, about one
million and a third of such letters were publicly
destroyed, a bonfire being kindled with them on
the Mall.
On Saturday week, the editor of the Washing
ton Republic saw a large number of the various ar
ticles transmitted through the mails, the majority
of which will never come 1 into tiie possession of
those to whom they were addressed. Amongthese
maybe mentioned a hffrse-shoe; a ginger-cake,
(the postage of which was $2 10;) a donation to a
church, being a small cake in a paper box; a quilt,
a New Year’s present to a bachelor; a Dutch pat
tern for a child’s dress; a pin-cushion, the stand of
it the bottom ot a glass lamp (the postage $4 —tiie
intrinsic value as ninny cents;) a zinc frame, be

by “Eliza," as a samplo of his geuorority; a pair
of men's boots sent to a lady; a largo bottle of

Honorable Conduct of the Turkish Govern
ment.—Those who have road the altercating let
ter oftbo Rov. Ur. Bacon, whilo on hia recent tour,
will recollect hia being robbed by a Kurdiah chief,
und hia life and thoae with him endangered. The
facia in the case were made known to the Turkish
Government, and the result is given in :»n article
in the Independent of this week, which we sub
join :
The Robbers in Kurdistan. —The robbery of
I)r. Bacon and Mr. Marsh by a Kurdiah chief
named Malnl Aglia, has not been forgotten. Our
friends have often inquired whether the property
bus hoen recovered, and whether Malul Aglia and
hia associates have been in any way punished by
the Turkish Government.
Mr. Williams one of onr missionaries at Mosul
says, in u letter dated Aug. 80, 1852, “1 have just
received 4500 piustrus from Ilia Excellency Ilumly
Pacha, for the spoiling whioh the Kurds aid your
party a year since.” Three cannon and three hun
dred men were sent up there und collected this
money, refusing to take the articles, as the owners
wero m the United States and the articles proba
lily injured. The troops also brought back 70,000
piastres government arrearages, and secured 200,-
000 more which i» to come down after the rico har
vest.” Mr. W. also writes as soon as the 200,000
piastres still duo to the Government shall have
been received at Mosul, the robbers will be pun
ished.
Tnis is a great lesson to the plundering barba
rians of the mountains, a lesson which they will not
be likely soon to forget. Other travellers may be
able to pass through those wild districts in safety,
in emsequonce of the people having been taught
in this way how sacred is the duty of hospitality
to strangers.
In this act of restitution, we hnvo anew instance
of the ffiondly disposition of the Sultan toward
American citizons, whothor they visit hia domin
ions as merchants, as travellers or as Christian
missionaries. Thanks to his Imperial Majesty 1 —
Uur thanks are also due to Hia Excolloncy the pa
clui of Mosul, for the energy and fidelity with
which he has executed the orders of the Supremo
Government at Constantinople.
Mr. Rassaintho British Vice-Consul at Mosul
has promptly and geuorously done all in this mat
ter that could have hoen oxpeoted had he been in
the service of our own Government, and the result
now announced, is due in uo small measure to his
hearty and uncompensated interposition. He, in
the first instance acting as agent of a friendly power
took up the wrong that had been done to citizens
of the United States, and made n communication
on the subject to Sir Stratford Canning (now Lord
Stratford) the British ambassador at Constantino
ple. Nor from first to last has anything boon
warning that ho could do to obtuin the restitution
which lias now been made.
A Bequrst to Doha. —On the sth of May, 1805
Mr. Busliby, a gentleman of considerable proper
ty, who dic’d at Kingsbridge, loft by his will ajaen
sion of £25 to four of his dogs. Ho hnd beon ro
markublo for his attachment to the canine race,
and when it was reraarkod to him that a portion of
the sums expended upon them, would lie hotter
employed in the relief of his fellow-creatures, he
replied, “ Men have attempted to deprive me ol
life; a faithful dog has preserved it.” Mr.
Bushby bad, in hot, owed his sufety to a dog,
when attacked by brigands during a tour in Italy,
and tlie four animals to which lie made the bequest
hod descended from that one. The deceasod,
feeling liis Isst hour anpronoiiing, had the four
dogs nlaood on chairs by his bedside, received
their last oaresses, returned thorn with n trembling
hand, and died, as it were, botweon their paws.

Fashions. — The Diplhera Bonnet.— Madame Du
hay D'Goldbcrg, whose name is known through
out civilizod Europo as the presiding goddess of
fashion, has just astonishod her votaries by the
production of a chapeau. Tlio history of this no
velty is somewhat curious, aud peculiarly marks
the character of the Parieiaus. Sadamo U'Gold
berg, abou> to retire frill of honors was struck with
a desiro to leave a something which would attach u
“glory to her uamo.” Fired with the notion, and
in the pure spirit ot a Frenchwoman, she seized
upon a skin of polished leather, and in an instant
converted it into a bonnet. Yes, s bonnet—
charming as ever claimed Paris os its birthplace 1
Madame lias secured a patent for her ingenuity,
slid has conferred upon Messrs. Jay of Regent st.
the exclusive right of the sale in this country of
those made in black aud violet. The posses
sion of these bonnets has already become a perfect
furor in Paris, and the really beautiful way in
which the material is made subservient to every
style of wearer, from the truly coquettish to the
sombre or demure, fully justified iu this distinc
tion—London Jfirning Herald.
Brttsc.so Shore. —Two years ago, the eities in
England and Scotland were liko smoked hams,
owiugtotlie dense relumes of smoke which filled
the atmosphere by the use of bituminous coal.—
The fields of grain were blaok in appearance from
the same cause, and the hedges were in the like
condition. Now all is changed: the aky is no lon
ger like a smokehouse; the rains descend ir. clear
streams, not in inky rivulets; the houses begin to
look as if their faces were washed, and the hedges
begin to wear their old dark grean appearance. All
this lias been accomplished by an aot of Parliament
making it penal for factories to let their smoke es
cape. The smoke is all burned by simple contri
vances of furnaces, among which -‘Juke’s” is con
spicuous. A Commission of Government first es
tablished that the burning of smoke was perfectly
practicable, and then Parliament enforced the fact
by law. The factory and mill owners soon iaond
out how to fulfill the conditions of this law, and the
result is, they save a great deal of tuel by the ope
ration. — SeMntiJe American. ' ,

* “Jons Tat no a: I am glad to bear from you
' again, and to leant that you are well, and that vour
1 teams and tools are ready for Spring’s work, when
ever the weather will al(ow you to begin. I some l
I times read books on farming; and 1 remember
that a very sensible old anther advises fanners ‘to
1 j plow uaked and bow naked.’ By this, he meai.s
, j that there is no uac in beginning Spring’s work till
. ! the weather is warm, that a Tanner may throw
aside his Winter cloths and roll up his sleeves.
Yet he says we ought to begin as early in the year
■ !as possib . He wrote - otnc very pretty verses on
i ‘ this subject, w..*eh.for as 1 remembe- run thus:
. | “ ‘While yet the .spring 1 1 young, while earth unbinds
The friaen bosom to the western winds:
While mountain soowt dissolve gaiast the sun,
And streams, yet new, from precipice run—
K’en in this curly dsw- ing of the year.
Produce the plow, and yoke the sturdy stew;
And goad him Ull he smoke beneath bis toil,
And the bright share is buried in the soil.'
“John Taylor: When you read those lines, do
you not see tiie enow melting, and the little
streams beginning to run down the elopes of your
Punchbrook posture, and the new grans starling

“ ‘But, when cold weather, heavy enow and rata,

Let him forecast his work, with timely care,

Thi n let him mark the sheep, and whet ttw shining

Or uuiiow tree* for boats; or number o’er
His tacks; or measnrebis increa-ing store;
Or sharpen stakes, and mend each taka and fork,
Ho to be ready, In good time, to work—
Visit lib crowded barns at early morn.
Look to his granary, aud tludlhia corn:
Give a good breakfast to hit numerous klne,
Bit ihirering poultry and his fattening twin*.’
“And Mr. Virgil says some other things, which
vou understand up at Franklin as well aa ever he
did:
“ *tn chilling Winter, nraine enjoy their store,
P, rget their hardships, and recui: for more;
The firmer to fill f-atts invites hit friends,
Aud what he got with paint, with pleasure spends;
Ilraws chairs around the lire,and tells ones more.

An Incident of Mr. Webster at the South.—
When the distinguished statesman first visited the
South in 1849, lie enjoyed tiie unbounded hospitali
ties of the citizens of Charleston, and was shown
all matters of interest as they thought in aud
around their ancient appearing city. The writer of
this meeting him at the early hour of five in the
morning of the day on which lie was to leave the
city, uude the enquiry of him if lie viewed the
Statue of Pitt, standing on tiie Orphan Bouse
Ground wliioli wu* obtained by tiie colony ot
South Carolina in 1766, ten years previous to the
Declaration of our independence. His expressive
eye at once kindled up as be replied, “No, I have
not, and will not leave tiie city without visiting
it. His morning wrapper was soon laid off; and
putting on his coat lie accompanied the writer of
this before the breakfast hour on a visit to this
most wonderful statue in tho United States. For
many minutes his eyes were riveted on the Statue.
Then, turning to me, he said. “ I desire to get up
and embrace it; and I would restore that noble
right arm, stricken off by a ball of his own tyrani
cnl government when bombarding this city, which
arm was raised with his voice in defence of the
colonies, and in commemoration of which service
this statue was erected.”
I would recommend to all onr countrymen, and
also to all foreigners visiting Charleston, to view
this statue. Its history is oue ol singulgr interest,
The likeness of tho grout orator is said to be per
fect. The name of the sculptor is not now known,
it was erected previous to tnc Revolution, and its
right arm broken off by a ball from the British can
non when bombarding the city of Charleston.—
During the disturbances of the French Jacobin-,.
Genet, exciting the Huguenot population, to riot
(the only riots ever occurring in Charleston,) the
-tatue was thrown down, and the head knocked
off, the other arm broken, and the statue itself oast
into a eornor ofthe grounds surrounding tho City
Hall, and there covered with rubbish, it was af
ter many years obtained by the commissioners of the
Orphan House, on application to the city council, i
and by thorn placed on a pedestal in the grounds
ufthe Orphan House, tiie head being fastoned <n '
by a wire, Ac., on the back of the neck, where it t
now stands. A statue of more historical interest i
there is not iu tho United States.— N Y. Jour, i

Mcsical Hall in Boston.— An elegant and spa
cious new Musical Hall is to be opened in Boston
on tlie 30tli inst. An improved mode of lighting
it has been adopted, which is thus described in the
Daily Advertiser:
The New Musis Hall. —AVe have kept our readers
informed, from time to time, of tlie progress ofthe
now Musical Hull in this city, and have spoken of
its chief features. One of them, however, which
has not been alluded to is tho novel manner of
lighting the hall. This is to be dono by gas lights
upon a cornice near the ceiling, on the sides of the
hall. The burners wore partially lighted for tlie
first time last evening, and tlie result was such as
so completely demonstrate tho success of tho plan,
which we believe is used in a few halls abroad, but
in no other in this country. Tito lights arc at snob
a distance above tho audience as to effectually pre
vent the disagreeable dazzling ot the eyes which is
so often found a necessary attendant of the hril
liunt lighting of a large room, and at the same time
it proves that they are simply sufficient to illumi
nate tho whole hall. Only a portion ot tlie burners
were used last evening, and yet the hall was per
fectly lighted. The position of tho lamps near the
celitig has tlie additional advantage of promoting
• ho action of tlie ventilators abovo thorn, which arc
nineteen in number. Some of the seats already in
the hall prove to be luxuriantly comfortable to a
degree heretofore unknown in conoert rooms. The
beautiful coloring and chaste ornaments of the
hall make the whole effect excellent.

Tliia company is authorized by it* charter to

tend the same road to the Mississippi river to any
j oint below Cape Girardeau, or to the southern

in view the proposed extension of a chain of rail

to connect with New Orleans by crossing some
where near Memphis, and then continuing ou to
meet the Jackson road, or going down the western

on towards the Pacific. The first link of this con

Krasorai* Ancient and SltoMricENTCnT at Tin
ian Island, in the North Pacifio.— Captain Alfred
JC. Fisher, of this town, informs us that when ou
mis last whaling voyage, in the ship America, ot
New Bedford, (which was about eight years ago,;
he had oecasiou to visit the Island of Tinian, (ont
1 of the L’idroii- Islands,) to land some sick men
lie stooped tin re some days. One of his men, it
his walks abont the island, came to the entrance
of the main street, of a large and splendid city, in
ruins. Captain Fisher, on being informed of tin
fact, entered the city, by the principal street, which
was about 8 mile* hi length. The buildings were
all of stone, of a dark color, and of the mo*'
splendid description.
In about the centre of the main street, be found
12 solid stone colnms, 6 on each side of the street.
they were about 45 or 60 feet in height, surmount
ed by cap-stones of immense we : ght. The column
were 10 feet in diameter at the base, and about $
foot at the top. Capt. F. thinks the columns would
weigh about 60 or 7o tons, and the cap-stone* about
15 tons. One of the columns had fallen, and h.
had a fine opportunity to view its vast proportions
and fine architecture. From the principal street, i.
large number of other streets diverged. The.'
were all straight, nml the buildings wore of stone
The whole of the city was entirely overgrown with
cocoanut trees, which wereso and 60 feet inheight
In the main street, pieces of common earthen
ware wore fonnd. The island has been in posses
sion of the Spaniard* for a long time. Six or sev
en Spaniards resided on the Island when Capt. F
was there. They informed him thatthe Spaniard:
had had possession about sixty year*—that they
took the island from the Knockas, who were en
tirelv ignorant of the builder* of the city aud ot
the fonner inhabitants. When questioned a* t'
the origin of the city, their only answer was
“There must have been a powerful race here along
time ago.”
Capt. F. also saw on the island immense ledges
of stone, from which the buildings and columns
had evidently been erected. Some portions of then
exhibited sign of having been worked. Here isfoo
fur speculation. Who were the founders of this onei
munificent city in the North Pacific, and whai

of forty miles an"hour, struck his horse and killed
him instantly, tore off the saddle so that it hung
to the aidcß of the locomotive, and yet left the man
perfectly unhurt, though he was thrown off to
some distanoe. When the train was stopped, and

how to take advantage of things. A Maine brig
recently arrived at Havana with a perishable cargo.

The scrip was Uu.*«*;.. I' -• _ if premium —hen
the first intelligence arrived of difficulties of the
Turkish Cabinet, and a fall immediately commen
„ oed, which was not arrested until yesterday, the
lowest price reached having been premium.
The detail* of the affair are as yet verv imperfect
ly known, bat as U appears to involve political con
-idemtions of importance, it has attracted a great
degree of attention, upaiTfroin that which has been
bestowed upon it from it* pecuniary bearings. As
tar as any geueral infereuees can be drawn from j
the isolated facts that have transpired, it would ap
pear that Ku.-sia and Austria, mortified at Turkey
tiaving eutered into independent and success
ful negotiations with France and England, re
solved mi mediately to cause the overthrow of the '
Ministry by wh >m the step had been taken, lienee,
although the negotiations for the loan had been a'l- 1
thorued by a preliminary firman, while each stage
of tne proceedings had barn duty sanctioned b\
the Finance Minister, (the Turkish Ambassador at '
Paris having actually signal the scrip receipts) they 1
,-er-uaded the Sultan, after the whole had b«t-u '
completed, to quarrel with his Minister regarding 1
'■ a term-, that fad been agreed to, and to summon
•» new Catiinet that would be prepared to disavow I
all their acts. i
To give strength to the movement, the services <
*f chiefs of toe Maii.'imnedun priesthood were i
ike wise enlisted, aud these parties, who are in pos- |
*tsai nos enormous revenues, went with an offer i
io the Sultan to let him have a loan of the same I
• mount upon much better conditions tiniu that |
which he w« urged to repudiate. After the dis
iiissal of the late Ministers, a story was got up a!- *
•o that they had refused certain advances required <
>y the Sultan at a time when there was actually '
H 0,000,000 in the treasuar., and while ihis seemed >
to show that the loan had been contracted without
any necessity, it served at the same time to create <
I prejudice against tffe faliou i abinet, as if they i
•ad been guilty of ooneealment and an ttemptat ’
uisapproprjuuon.
There i* uo reason, however, to believe that any
thing of the sort had taken p)a«. the demand of
he Sultan having probably beeff inude at the sug
gestion of the parties to the intrigue, who knew
'hut the Minister would feel Bbund, from the gen
ual Btate of the finances, to decline compliance
vitn it. How far the plot may yet be successful
cumins to be seon. From the predominant, al
though secret, influence of Russia aud Austria by
the universal use of bribes, there can belittle
loubt that it wouid have been triumphantly curried
iut but for tiie interference of the French Aiubas
uidor. On behai lr f the stock in Paris, this persou
ige ut once protested against the evasion that was
ueiug practised, and insisted either that the loan
should be ratified forthwith, or that the deposit al
.eadv puid should be leturned with full damages
o-all the parties who had purchased the stock at a
premium, liis course, it is said, has been fully ati
iroved by the French Government, and it would
lierefore appear that there cau be little prospect of
escape for the Sultan. In fact, if has been reported
hat after one or two fresh efforts to avoid the de
uaud, compliance was at last found necessary, and
hat the ratification has consequently already taken
dace. This statomeut, however, is supposed to be
premature, and hence much anxiety will be felt for
ne arrival of the next packet, which is to bring fall
ntelligence from the French Minister at Constan
tinople of the result of his negotiations.
It' the ratification is actually obtained, the anger
ff Russia and Austria, who have not forgotten
their old spite regarding the sheltered Hungarians,
vill be intense. Ou the part of Austria, moreover,
this feeling will be quickened at the annoy ance
-lie feels at the coufideuce with which the loun was
irigiuully received, while her own recent loan,
iveil with all the influence of the Rothschilds to
luck it, has already fallen, like the previous one,
<> a discount, from which there is no prospect of
ts rising.
Tho political aspects of the case arc remarkable,
nasmuch as it places France as a competing pow
er against Austria in Turkey, as she is already in
taly. The most bitter jealousy will arise from
his, and there can be but little doubt that France
would improve tho opportunity, except that just
iow it would militate ugainst ihe President’s de
puration that “the Empire means peace.” In fact,
nis last consideration may yet lend to some com
promise, since, if Austria and Russia could be
nollified tili tne period of the coronation, by ilie
acrifice of th# scrip-holders on tho Puris Bourse,
t would be by no means certain thut they might
lot be thrown over at the eleventh hour. They
vill, therefore, have every reason to rejoice when
heir position lias been placed beyond doubt.
The amount of tiie scrip held in the London
narketis s4,ooo,ftfto, but os far as the protection of
English interests is ooncerned, no steps appear to
iavc been taken by our Minister at Constautino
pie. Indeed, it is rumored that he has rather sid
ad with Austria and Russia; although this is pro
oaUy a mere Parisian invention, to set off the ser
vicesof their own representative. There has been
io time for him to receive any instructions from
Lord Malmesbury.
Iu home polities there is nothing new. D’lsraeli
'till keeps the secret of his wonderful.financial
nostrum, which is to astonish the world, and witli
he approach of the session and tiie absence of any
•übjeots of oxcitemont, there is an increase of that
mutering curiosity which threatens to explode ul
imately in a burst of ridicule. With regard to
die Ministry generally, tlieir unpopularity increas
es daily, but at the same time there is uo eager
ness on the part of the liberal members to eject
them from office, the Whigs having as yet recover
ed but little of tho confidence so recently with
drawn Iromthem.
The activity of business throughout the country
continues, aud the diminution of pauperism and
crime is noticeable every day. In faet there i«
ibundance of employment every where fur all
who will honestly seek it, and it is unquestiona
ble that at no former period of English history has
diore been anything like such universal prosperi
ty. Among other illustrations of tins state of af
fairs it has just been mentioned that tiie Bridg
north Union, wtiich comprises 57 parishes und o
population of 16,000, in a rural districj, there is
uot a single üble-t*>died pauper; and tliatkhe pa
rish guardians have been obliged to hire meu to
supply the workhouso with water,, the only males
available to work tiie pump being two idiots and
iu old mail of 71. Similar accounts arc constantly
t>eing received from other districts, and in the '
neighborhood of large manufacturing towns the
results arc still more striking.
The English funds remain tolerably steady, but
the dullness before aliudod to still hangs ovor
them. They constantly advance to about
end then experience a slight reaction. This ba
boon the case during the pre-ent week, and they
nave closed this afternoon at 100)^.
Speculation on tho Paris Bourse is carried to a
treater exeoss than ever, and suoh is tiie madness
u some cases, that parties are found to pay at tiie
• ate of loft per cent, for money to carry on tlieir
transactions from settlement to setilement. There
can, of conrso, bo only one end to sueli proceedings,
but it is understood that all the resources of the
state will be employed rather thuu that any reac
tion should take placfc before the declaration of
lie Empire. Hence there are reports that tho
bank of France will lower its rate of discount, or
effurd increased accommodation in other ways.

Extensive Swindlino.— A Spaniard named De
maseo Pinto, was arrested at New Orleans ou the
26th ult., for having beeu engaged in swindling
transactions to an enormous umoiint. Ae the story
runs, Pinto, some months ago, arrived at Mexico
from Spain, and ut once applied to a largo com
mercial House to know if auy letters had been re
ceived by mail in which lie wits interested. On
receiving a negative imswer he expressed surprise,
but trusted thut the next steamer would bring
them. And by tho next mail, letters arrived, by
which lie was recommended to credit to aliiio
any amount. Those letters, which have since
turned out to be forged, enabled him to swindle
oue house out of $36,000, and various,other house
in Vera Cruz, Monterv, and other cities of large
amounts. Pinto commenced operations in Texas,
and from a house in Brownsville lie fraudulently
obtained $2,000, and made for New Orleans, when
bo was arrested. It is supposed thut the letters ol
credit were forged before lie left Spain.— N. O.

TiieTelf.orai'ii to Texas. —The projected line
oftelegraph from New Orleans to the West is to
pass direct through Tliibodauxvillc to Franklin on
the route of the Opelousas railroad, thence to St.
Martins, Opelousas, Alexandria, Nachitoches, and
Shreveport. This is the main wire. The exten
sionsarc to be from Opelousas direct west to Hous
ton, Texas thence to Galveston ; and a short line
from Thibodaux to Donaldsonville the whole length
of wire being about 525 miles.
The stock is rated at $l5O per mile, which will
be (including tho patent,) about the actual cost ol
construction. A commendahle spirit has already

Dow Junior on Quarrelling. —My hearers !
“Suffer not the sun to go down upon your wrath.”
One of tho moat perfectly fooli.-h things in the
world, is to quarrel, upon any pretence provoca
tion, oroccasion whatever, especially with skunks,
women, little men, and cripples. # Tiiere is no kind
of necessity in it, no manner of use ill it, and no
species of degrees of benefit to be gained bv it;
and yet, strange as the fact may be, theologians
quarrel, lawyers, doctors, and princes quarrel;
the Church nuarrels, and the Slate quarrels, na
tions and tribes, and corporations, men, women,
and children, dogs; and earn, birds and beasts,
quarrel abont all manner of things, and on all man
ner of occasions.
If there is anything in the world that will make
a man leel bad,except pinching his fingers in a
erack of a door, it is anonestionablyaquarrei. No
man ever fails to think less of himself after than
he did before one ; it degrades him in his own
eies, and in the eyes of others, and what is worse
blunts his sensibility to disgrace ou one hand, and
increases the power of passionate instability on
ti e other. The truth is. the more quietiv ami
peaceably we get on the better ; the baiter for our
selves; the better for our neighbors. In nine cases
out often, tbe w sestcourse is, if a manebeuts yon
quit dealing with him, if he is abusive, quit his
company; if he slanders, take care to lit e so that
no man will believe him. No matter who he is or
how lie misuses you, tho wisest way is just to ’ let
him alone, for their is nothing better than this
cool, calm, quiet way of dialing with the wrongs
wc meet with.
