Mu. Editor :—Finding that you have tak«*n
possession of my oobp—pondenoc to print it—l oon
-4 elude it inay aa well Ik- addressed direcUy to your
sclf. Here we are in the beautiful city of Matan
zaa. My room opens on the fine bay, and after a
hot ride on the Railroad, and refreshing sea breeze
in delightful. In this spacious harbor I see “young
America" represented in the shape of a score of
ships, hailing from Charleston, N*-w York, and
}V*too, ioading with the products of this rich Island.
I like Matansus, in many respects better than
Havana. The inhabitants look more comfortable
and the streets are wider and cleaner.
The country from Guineas to this city is very pro
ductive, and the hills and valleys through widen you
pass, make it a most picturesque ride. On either
side, are large fields of orange, banana, cocoaaat,
and royal palm trees, loaded with fruit. Matanzas
has an active thriving w*t of merchants, and carries
on a brisk trade in sugar, coffee, molasses. etc. I
am now travelling with a Boston mercharit, and u
N. O. Physician, ar»d here I meet a Charleston friend
C. E M We “Americanos,” as the Cubans call us
stick together like brothers. I have been quite
fortunate in making aoq u a intances in this land of
strangers. Ido feel thankful for a social disposition
for it gives ine kind, good friends, from whom I de
rive much Information and happiness.
I roust now tell you about the celebrated Yumore
Valley Having procured four fine Spanish ponies,
and friend M. tor our guide, we started for the
mountains. On we marched, in regular Indian file,
ascending hill after hill, until we reached the summit
of Cosnnoea mountain. Here let us rest and behold
the most magnificent scenery in the world ! Sow
imagine yourself on a high mountain, with not even
an intervening leaf to obstruct your view in any di
rection.
Cast your eye to the north, and you see the broad,
blue Gulf of Mexico, and there comes a steamer
from Havana. Those ship* which are sailing so
gracefully into port—where are they from ? They
have not yet hung out their flags and I cannot tell.
To the West and East is the harbour and beautdul
city of Matanzas . to the South—ah ! here is the
picture which tills the soul with rapturous joy and
delight. I»ok upon Yumore, the most beautiful
valley oa the globe 1 I had always thought Uw-re
was no laud sc* lovely ns my own dear Naeoockc c,
the Tempe of the South,
“Wherethe zephyr*perfumeda* from the Spire Inland-
Mount up from the Valley to v. elemne the morn—
Where the gale robs the zephyr to gladden the highland,
With sweet ness that e'en to proud You&h in borne.
*Ti» a valley of peace, rich in every soft feature,
In sunshine or shad*-, in its own verdant green,
’Tia Georgia’s Egeria. most lovely by nature,
Carved out of a chaos of wild mountain seeae.”
Yes, for once in my life, have I beheld a valley,
far more beautiful than even the “ sweet vale of
Naooochoe." These rich and varied scene* have
produced a well spring in my heart, from which I
can ever draw happiness. A* I looked forth on the
natural beauty tliat lay spread out beneath and
around roe. O, howl did wish that all my friends
could be with me and feast on the rich scenery of this
charming Valley. Ear, far below are broad, gre**n
fields of sugar cane, now in full bloom, and on the
sid«*s of the mountain, standing like a queen in her
glory, you see in thick groups, the majestic royal
palm. On the quiet and peaceful banks of the
Vumore River, which winds its way through the
valloy, #ire beautiful groves of orange, banana, lemon
and almond, and here and there, peep out farm
houses, almost hid by luxuriant vines, tre us and flow
ers, We could not leave this enchanting spot, until
the sun had dropped behind the distant mountains,
and warned us that dark nor s would soon be upon us.
As w<- wen- returning to tie* rity, a pack of fierce
Cuban blood hounds attacked us, und it neeim-d
that we should be torn to pieces, fortunately the
largest and most desperate fellow was muzzled.-
They seized our Boston friend by the foot, and 1
thought would unhorse Inin. They chased us near
ly a mile. Ido not know when 1 have witnessed a
more exciting scene. Nearly all the planters keep
these dogs, and train them to catch runaway negroes,
that hide in the caverns of the mountains. Near this
valley is a cave, worthy of a visit. The entrance is
rather narrow and difficult; after you have gone
some hundred feet it becomes wider. You find it
necessary to carry lamps und matches, for if your
light should become extinguished, it. would be very
difficult to find your way out. The cave enters the
mountain half a mile. The drippings through the
rugged cliffs, become petrified, and hang down in
clusters resembling icicles. Owls and lwtts inhabit,
this dismal abode in great numbers : and it was for
merly a safe hiding place, for the highway robbers
who commit many murders in this region, and were
the terror of the neighborhood.
We left Matanzas in the steamer whieh carried
the unfortunate Lopez and party to their lust home
on earth. The engineer—an American—pointed
out the place on deck, where three young men from
New Orleans were shot. The poor fellows were*
sent int<* eternity without a moment’s warning. The
prisoners were all treated with tlie greatest indigni
tv—Oeu, I/opez was chained and strongly guarded.
After a pleasant sail up the coast, of six hours, w«-
reach',;d (’nidenas. This is the City of eight thou
sand inhabitants taken by Lopez with five hundred
men Their marks are still to be seen on tin* houses
and doors. Here I find a great many persons dis
siitiified with tin? tyrannical government, but they
we e too cowardly to join or they might Mow
in' free. Lopez finding himself surrounded with
j2,ooff troops, was compelled to leave for the I'.
States, Cardonas is located on the coast. As a
place of residence it is uninviting, but a large trade
is carried on. One fourth of the sugar crop is ship
ped from this port. Here you find Massachusetts
and Maim* merchants buying up the "slave molas
ses" mid shipping it to Boston and Portland, to be
manufactured by our sanctimonious t Yunk< e breth
ren, into pure New England Rum, and sold to
Southern heathens for “slave money.' 5 This is con
sistency for you. 1 have lowers of introduction*to
the proprietors of Elor de (Tuba, Ponina, Alva and
St. Ilelcua, fourof the largest sugar estates on the
Island. When I have visited those places, you
shall hear from me again. Yours very truly,

The Creocent City Herald, of January 16th, says
tliai : “About New Year’ll day a Hinall party of
whites discovered a band of ImliauH on Appellate
Creek, some twenty five or thirty miles from Jack-
Honville. Fietendiug to be miners on u prospecting
tour, they managed to remain on the creek, uusu.h
peeled by the Indians, until they could send word
to the nearest settlements. As soon ns information
of tin- whereabouts was received in the valley, about
one hundred and fifty of the troops, ami many citi
zen volunteers, t«»ok up the line of march from Ap
pellate on the 2d of January, carrying one of the
mountain howitzers along. When about two miles
from Jacksonville, Mr. Martin Angel nud John Me
Luughlin passed ahead of the troop of thirty soldiers,,
amt within n distance of only four hundred yards of
them were shot at by the Indians. Mr. Angel's
horse took fright and ‘while cantering off the trail,
the Indians succeeded with several more shots, in
killing horse and rider, and then stripped them, tak
ing Mr. Angel’s two revolvers and rifle. Mr. Henry
II llutehiiis, our informant, learned that on the
same morning Mr. Hull was out hunting tvith his
son, when the latter was killed by the Indians, and
it is thought this done by theseout which killed Angel*
Late in the afternoon of the sth the howitzer was
got ready, tired, and the shot fell directly upon one
of the uubins, killing three Indians. Several more
shots were fired before night, but without effect.
During the night the Indians, judging discretion to
be t he better part of valor, broke through the guards
ol the whites and «‘»eaped. We learn with regret
that in this untoward affair Dr. William Myers was
killed, and several others wounded.
The disappointment of the public in hearing of the
Inglorious issue ol this movement is the more acutely
fen us from the previous successes on Unite Creek it
was confidently expected that the troops at length
had concluded to go it with a will. The escape of the
Indians remains to many inexplicable. Five weeks
earlier, from four to five hum!red troops withdrew
from before one hundred and fifty Indians ut the
“Big Meadows”—now thirty-three Indians elude the
vigilance of eight tinus their number of whites. We
are too remote from the scene of action to judge cor
yeetiy of the merits of the case, but this much we
might infer from the past —that it takes a long time,
to whip two hundred hostile Indians.
Movement of the V. S. Troops. —On Wednesday
last the brig Nonsuch, from Humboldt Bay, arrived
off our harbor, and landed fifty soldiers uml« r com
mand of t’apt. Jones, formerly stationed at Hum
boldt and on the Klamath. The brig had also am
munition aud provisions on hoard, but finding the
sea too rough to discharge them, she stood off. and
has consequently to call again.
By the arrival of the Colombia, the San Francis
co papers have dates from Portland, 0. T., to Jan
uary 12; Puget Sound to January 4; and Crescent
City to January IC—two weeks later. We are in
debted to the’ purser for the following memoranda
ami list of passengers.
Attack on Fort Walla Walla.—Defeat of (hr Jr
Mans. —According to the last account* received
from Oregon, Lieut. Colonel Kelly, with a larg •
force of volunteer, was mnivhing upon Foil Wnlla-
Wulia, which had been captured some time pre
viously by the Indians, anu had encamped at Fort
lleurietta. The Columbia brings us the news of the
defeat of the Indians at that point, with great
slaughter, on the Hth, 10th, 11th, and 13th of De
cember. The following abstract of a volunteer's
journal is copied from the Statesman :
Indians made their appearance in the morn
ing on the battle-ground, but not half so thick as
the day before. Kept a continuous firing all day,
but doing little execution, ns the boys were getting
pretty good at dodging. Wasco boys took the bill,
and after two hours sharp shooting, routed the ln
e.umsont of their tivneln-s. ete . that tie y bad dug,
leaving guns. knives ami blankets. At the satin'
time, the Indians were seen driving off their stock
up the river.
10th, Monday Morning.—A few Indians present id
themselves on the hill; filled up some of our trenches
and dug new ones of their own. Wasco boys on the
hill, aud Linn boys along the hrnsh . fought on the
bill for an hour or two. when the Indians began to
retreat. Mi\j. Chinn ordered a charge, when Linu
nml Wasco pitched in and rail the de\ ils past their
upper caunv—three Indians killed. As we were
coming baca. they tired a few times at us, but no
one was hurt during the day on our side. At dusk
the enemy all disappeared.
11th.o'clock —Three hundred andfiftvmen,
under Col. Kelly, mounted on horseback and pur-
Mied the eiiemy. Followed about forty miles, found
considerable stock. but not one Indian. All left in
the direction of Snake river suppos'd to l av*
crossed over to the other side of Snake river. From
the appearances in the Indian camp, eight or ten
miles above Whitman's station, tin-re must have
been fifteen hundred or two thousand Indians. Then*
were one hundred and tliirtv lodges . some wen*
twenty-five and forty feet long, and others only
large enough to contain six persons.
loth. 5 p m.—Col. Kelly and conn any returned .
brought with them thirty or forty Indian horses;
saw quite a number of cattle and horses as they
were passing up the valley, but ou account of ts:
fog could not find them as they returned : found
a valuable cache deposited by a settler. House>
nearly ail buned; grain, etc., destroyed by the
Indians.

of an incendiary. The fire was first seen at j ,

first discovered by Dr. Wi son. (who lives near.) j
the fire was issuing out of the unfinished part of the j ’

The Lu-u Da>«. of Jeffrey, one of the Airo
cion* Judges.
Front the Sete Volumes of Macaulay's History of
England.
Among the many offenders whose name* were
mentioned in the course of these inquiries was one
who stood alone and unapproached in guilt and in
famy, and whom whigs raid tories were equally wil
ling to leave to the extreme rigor of the law. On
t!.. * terrible day which was succeeded by the Irish
Night, the roar of a great city disappointed of its re
venge hod followed .Jeffreys to the drawbridge of
the Tower. His imprisonment was not strictly legal;
but he at first accepted with thanks and blessing*
the protection which those dark waff*. made famous
by so many crime# and sorrows, afforded b-.m against
the fury of the Diuititude. Soon, however, he be
came sensible that his life was still in imminent peril.
For a time 1 e flattered himself with the hope that
a writ of hal fit corpus would liberate him
from his confinement, and that he should lx- able to
steal away to some foreign country, and hide hiiOocdf
with part of his ill-gotten wealth from the detesta
tion of mankind : but, til! the government was set
tled, there was no court competent to grant a writ
of habeas corpus ; and soon as the government
had been settled, the habeas carpus act was suspen
ded. Whether the legal guilt of murder could be
brought home t*t Jeffreys may be doubted. But he
was morally guilt v of so many murders, tliat if there
had been no other way of reaching bis life, a retros
pective Act of Attain hr would nave been clamo
rously demanded by the whole nation. A disposi
tion to trinn p;* over tlx* fallen lias never been one
of the besetting s.ns of Englishmen ; but the hatred
of which Jeffieys was the object was without u pa
rallel in our hbterv. and partook but too largely of
Uk* savageness of Cis own nature.
Ti.e pc*>j v» i.en* : was concerned, were as cru
el as himself, and exulted in his misery as he had
been « . u-t** ~. i to exalt in the misery of convicts
listening to the sentence of death, and of families
dud in mourning. Tne rabble congregated before
his deserted mansion in Luke street, and read on
the door with shouts of laughter the bills which an
nounced the *:»!e ofliis property. Even the delicate
women, who had tears for highwaymen and house
breakers, breathed nothing out vengeance against
him. The lan spoons cm him which were hawked
about tin* tov .v<-r«* distinguished by an atrocity
rare even in th«*sc days. Hanging would be too
mild a d- .ill for him ; a grave under the gibbet too
respecta* !*■ a•> Mieg place :he ongl*t to be whipped
be taf**
tored like nn Indian ; he ought to be devoured
alive. ...
Tice street poets portioned out all lus joints with
canniOai f* i ocity, and computed how many pounds
of steak might be cut from his well fattened carcass.
,\ v. tbi - was Mich that in lan
guage seldom heard in England they proclaimed
their w isli that he might go to the place of wailing
and gnashing of teeth, to ike worm that never dies,
to tiie. fire that is never quenched. They exhorted
him to hang himself in his garter*, and to cut his
throat with a razor. They put up horrible prayers
that la* might not b able to repent, that he might
die the sam* hard-hearted, wicked Jeffreys that he
had lived. His spirit, as mean in adversity aa inso
lent and inhumane in prosperity, sunk down under
the load of public abhorrence. His constitution,
originally bad, and much impaired by intempe
rance, was completely broken by distress and
]|< wn - tormented by a cruel internal disease,
which tin* moat -killful surgeons of tliat age were
| seldom able to relieve. One solace was left to him
brandy. Even when he had causes to try and
I <*ouncW*~to attend, lie had seldom gone to bed sober.
Now, w hen he had nothing to occupy his mind, save
terrible recollections und terrible forebodings, he
abandoned hiin.o ls without reserve to his favorite
vice. Many believed him to be bent on shortening
his life by cxc< *s. lie thought it better, they said,
to go off in a drunken tit than to be hacked by
Ketch, or torn limb from limb by the populace.
Once he was roused from a state of abject de
spondency by n:i agreeable sensation, speedily fol
lowed by a mortifying disappointment. A parcel
had been left for him at the Tower. It appeared to
be a barrel of Covhester oysters', his favorite dain
ti<He was grejiffy moved ; for there are mo
ments when tiio.-e who least deserve affection are
ph ;is«*d to tLink. that, they inspire it. “Thank God, 5 '
he ex< li'-imed, “I have still seine friends left.' 5 He
opened the barrel, ai d from among a heap of shells
out tumbled a tout j alter.
It does not appear that one of the flatterers or
bnff'oor.H whom he had enriched out of the plunder
ot he victims eame to comfort him in the day of
trouble. But he was not left in utter solitude.
John Tutchin, whom lie had sentenced to be flog
ged every fortnight tor seven years, made his way
into the Tower, und presented himself before the
fallen oppres-or. poor Jeffreys, humbled to the
dust, behaved with abject civility, and called for
wine. “I am glad, sir,” he said, “to see you.” “And
I nin glad,” answered the resentful whig,“to see
your lordship in this place.’ 5 “I served my master, 5 '
said Jeffrey s : “I was bound in conscience to do
so.” “Where was you conscience.” said Tutchin,
“when you passed the sentence on me at Dorches
ter ?” "It was set down in my instructions,”
answered Jeffreys, fawningly, “that I was to show
no mercy to men iike you, men of pails and courage.
\Yh'*n I vent back to court, I was reprimanded for
my lenity.”
Even Tntehin, acrimonious as was his nature,
and great ns wen his ymoigs, seems to have been
a little mollified by the pitiable spectacle which he
had at first contemplated with vindictive pleasure.
ll** nhyays denied his truth of the report that he was
the person who sent the Colchester barrel to the
'Power.
A more benevolent man, John Sharp, the excel
lent Dean of Norwich, forced himself to visit the pri
soner. It was a painful task, but Sharp had been
treated by Jeffreys in old times, as kindly as it was
in the nature of .Jeffreys to treat anybody, and hail
once in- twiee been able, by patiently waiting until
the storm of curses and invectives had spent itself,
and by dexterously seizing the moment of good hu
mor, to obtain for unhappy families some mitiga
tion of their sufferings. The prisoner was surprised
und pleased. “What!” he said, “dure you own me
It was in vain, however, that the amiable divine
tried to give a salutary paiu to that sacred con
science. Jeffreys, instead of acknowledging his
guilt, exclaimed vehemently Against the injustice of
mankind. “People call me a murderer for doing,
what at the time was applauded by some who are
now in high public favor. They call me a drunkard
because 1 take punch to relieve me in my agony."
He would not admit that,ns President of the High
Commission, he had done anything that deserved
reproach. IBs colleagues* he said, were the real
criminal; and now they threw all the blame on him. I
He spoke with peculiar-asperity of Sprat, who had
undoubtedly been the most humane and moderate
member of the board.
It soon became clear that the wicked judge was
fast sinking under the weight of bodily and mental
suffering. Doctor .John Scott, prebendary of Saint
Paul s, a clergyman of great sanctity, and author of
the (.hristian Life, a treatise once widely renowned,
v. ns summoned, probably on the recommendation of
his intimate friend Sharp, to the bedside of the dy
ing man. It was in vain, however, that Scott spoke,
as Sharp lmd already spoken, of the hideous butche
ries of Unruliestcr and T.iuuton. To the lost, Jeff
reys continued to repeat that those who thought
him cruel did not know wlmt his orders were, that
he deserved praise instead of blame, and that his
clemency had drawn on him the extreme displeasure
of his master.
Di-ease, assisted by strong drink and misery, did
its work fast. The patient's stomach rejected all
nourishment. He dwindled in u few weeks from a
portK and even corpulent .man to a skeleton. On
the 18th of April*he died, in the 41st year of his age.
lie had been Chief'Justice of the King’s Bench at
d-i. and Lord Chancellor at 37. In the whole history
of the English bar there is no other instance of so
rapid an elevation, or of so terrible a fall. The
emaciated corpse was laid, with all privacy, next
to the corpse of Monmouth, in the chapel of the
Tow.,.

SCIRRHUS BREAST CAN BE CURED.
LET IHE PUBLIC READ!
IN MERCY to the afflicted, and the gratitude and
high opinion I entertain of Dr. MOSELEY as a Surgeon
and Physician. 1 deem it nay duty to mention the ease of
my wife, hoping, at the same time, that ail person.* simi
larly afflicted may be benefitted bv it. In the first part
of this year, my wife had several small lumps to make
their appearance in her breast. They continued to ir.
crease in size, until the whole brea.-t became a diseased
mass, and very painful. 1 procured the best medical aid
in the city of Rome, and notwithstanding the earnest and
faithful attention of the most skilful physician -. she con
tinued to grew worse and worse, until tiiev gave the ease
up as incurable, and ad\ ised amputation. I was ad* ised
by many of my friends to visit DR W. R. MOSELEY,
of Griffin, Ga., which I did, and. astonishing as it may
seem, he had her entirely cured tritkiu one mouth, and sh«-
is now in good health ! I would advise all who are :if
tlktevi with S' irrhns. and Cancerous affections, to vi«di
