This science, bo necessary to the success ui young melt, is proposed to lie taught in out city, by Mr. 1!. ('. Iluyden, who comes among o.- highly recommended, both as a competent teacher, and practical Book Keeper, by some ot’ the best Merchants of the .North. Mr. li. Ins come South with a view of testing the ef fect of our mild climate on his constitution, which has been somewhat ini pared by the sc ver-ty of the chilling blasts of the North. He proposes to open a class Ihe second week in January, llis services ire much needed in our city. We copy the notice of iiis departure from his native town, from the Waterbary lI’l.) American: We regret to learn that our esteemed young triend and fellow citizen, Mr. Henry C Hay den, feels compelled by the precarious state of In- health, to give up his residence in this city and leave for a more genial clime. Though a young man, he lias by the able and satisfactory manner in which lit* has discharged the duties of the various posts ho has been called upon to till, gained the respect and confidence of his townsmen, whose best wishes will accompany him. W’o regret the necessity which compels him to leave us, because he belongs to a class us young men of whom there cannot be too many in any community. He loaves about the Ist of December, for Columbus, (la., where he roes as agent of the Wheeler & Wilson M’lg Cos. Wo hope in the “Sunny South” he will regain his health, and be enabled to return halo and hearty. We are please to leant from evidence hi his possession, that he dues not belong to that class, in his native State, denominated fanat ics ; but is a believer in the right of the people of the territories to decided the question of slavery for themselves when they knock at the door of the Union for admission. See his advertisement in another column. | —— Walker’* Prospects. A writer in theNew York Times takes a more hopeful view of Walker's prospects than most ol those who have commented on the late accounts front Nicaragua, lie estimates his force bo fore the arrival of the last accounts at I.” 00 men; (including lleuningsen'scommand) hold ing possession of the most commanding points on the Isthmus, without counting the expected i e-iuforcentents or the detached and lloatiug parties. Ifenningsen (he tells ns) occupied at the last accounts, the Church of San Sebastian on a height in an excellent defensive position, and was well supplied with artillery and the neces sary munitions of war. * % \ The writer sums up his statements as fid lows : Including the last reinforcements, General Walker must have found himself on landing at Virgin Hay at the head of ten or twelve linn- : died men independent of lleuningsen’s com mand, ami with the means of transporting them by steam in one night to points within a league of Granada, where he could take the allies at disadvantage on llank and rear. It i-. hardly possible therefore to suppose lie tail ed to relieve the Americans in Granada before j their condition became desperate. The California train having already been protected across the 1 shunts by his decisive action, and having safely embarked its treas ure and passengers on board the New York steamer, General Walker would bo at liberty to throw all his force on Granada, and not on ly relieve General llcnningsen, but living the nar to a close in one decisive battle. •hi a careful examination of all the proba bilities, 1 believe this result may bo expected with much better reason than we can suppose that a force of two thousand Americans will utter thoiuselv s to tie driven from the great Mlmitts highway and yield to their enemies ihut communication so important to all the States of the Union as well as to Nicaragua. Yours, Amkrmts. The Hattie of Masaaya. The Nicaragua correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune, writing of this battle, sav : Among the officers killed was liieut. Tyler O.

A tetter from < “l-pu- t'hristi, Texas, stale tluii Jonathan Hdmousoii, ■ ; Tazewell county. Va., was killed on the lii<> Grande mi the “Oth nit. The letter says: Kilmonson was in company with some othet men in a scouliug expedition on the Mexican side, when two Lieutenant> in the l. S. A., named Taylor and Wright got into a difficulty and crossed the Bio Grande to fight, Edmond son being Taylors second. Alter they’ reach ed the IHo Grande city, Taylor backed out and Edmonson prupozed to take bis plate, Wright said ho had no weapons, when Edmon-on told him to arm himself and turned to walk away, when Wright drew a pistol from under liis coat anil shot him. Edmondson turned immediate ly and shot Wright twice as he was running; both fell and died in five minutes. - Jacob Little’s Failure. A corrcsponddent of tly; (Charleston Courier, thus explains the late failure ot Mr. Kittle, of New Fork: “The true cause of the failure ol Jacob Lit tle lias, not yet, been publicly stated, lie wits a strong Fremont nuiu, and really thought li-. would be elected. Knowing that if such an event had occurred, there would have been ex citement throughout the country, that busi ness would receive tearful shock, and calam ities portend, he calculated that about this time, timid the universal apprehension of all conser vative commercial men, negotiations would be .suspended, veal estate declined, and securities of every description tumble down, and he would reap the profits of the public disaster. Another A ut for Bonnet to Crack. A friend from Baltimore has placed in the hands of the oh it or of the lliclunoiid Dispatch, the following copy a letter, received by a gen tleman of that city, front two ruawuy .servants, (liis coarcliinait and nurse,) who had abscond ed to Canada. They have seen enough of freedom, and arc anxious to return to slavery. The Dispatch omits tiic names and I’ost Office, as no doubt Bennett, Greeley & Cos., would try to intercept the return of the fugitives, if they could identify their persons: Canada. West, Dec. ‘Jth.

The New York Police Gazette, speaking of a late arrest of burglars in that city, says : “The facilities which the thieves of New York have for committing crime are almost be yond belief. Their organization is complete. In searching Moore’s house after his escape, the police discovered a number of confidential letters from nearly all parts of the coun try. These letters it would bo highly injudi cious to publish, as they implicate respectable merchants out West and parties in this city, who arc supposed to beyond suspicion. These letters showed the facility afforded thieves in disposing of their property. There were also letters from the owner of a noted “fence” in Tenth-street, la perusing these letters care fully, it was also discovered that this gang, with which Moore was connected, had mechan ics and laborers in their employ, who furnish ed them with a. full aud accurate description of the houses they were at work upon. “There were also found a number of dia grams of stores and dwellings, of an innumer able number ol houses in this city, how the va rious apartments were laid out, and, if a store, where the safe or silks were deposited: if a dwelling house, where the money or the silver plate was located. Who furnished the thieves with these diagrams ‘! There is not a store or house worth breaking into but is well known to the burglars as to the owners themselves. Even the very locks on the doors are known, yet no impression has been made with wax. Who gives information of this character V New York is at the mercy of thieves: no police, however effective, can afford adequate protec tior.” - - Judge Locomptc. V telegraphic, despatch from Washington to the Baltimore papers, state that the truth of the rumor of the removal of Judge Leconipte i now continued by the nomination, by the President to the Senate, of .Lames O. Harrison, of Kentucky, as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Kansas. This removal was contem plated at least forty days ago, and of which, it is ttuid, Judge Lccoinpte was aware, but up to this time nothing has boon hoard from him in defence of his official conduct. The recent proofs and representations of Governor Geary determined the course of the administration in the premises. ♦ Early Marriages. V traveller in the East writes a- follows on early marriages: On making a call, the other day, at the house of an American missionary in Jerusalem, 1 saw a little boy, in the Turkish costume, sit ting on a sofa. My first thought was, “What an enormous turban the boy has on !” and my second, “How very small lie is!” Judge of my surprise when I found he was a husband, being little more than ten years old, and his wife not nine ! Truly, this is beginning life young. Vnd this reminds mo that a friend of out • -aw an Armenian lady in Alexandria, who, although but twenty.six years of age, was a graml-mother ! This goes i|uite bcymnl the curly marriages in the United States. ♦ ■— Fatal Affray. Thomas Gray aud James Jefcoat got into an affray on the l”th instant, a few utiles below Barnwell, whereupon knives and sticks were used, and the funner not.minus individual, af ter plunging a knife into Jefcoat, was felled to the earth by a blow from a club in the hands •f the latter, from the effects of which lie soon after died. Jefcoat, it is thought, will recov er. Jjunitrrll S. C. Sri, linfl. T, T 7’E. x* It,iv/cr e'er M.-ajis .

W ho among our readers lias not taken part m u contest, somewhat similar to the following so felicitously described by one of the gallant young men of the cold- water States ? The battle is btween the editor aud his sweet-heart. The prize, a kiss. The swain opens the sub ject— ‘Oh, now Sarah, dear, give me a kiss—just one—and he done with it.’ ‘I won’t! so there now.’ I’hen I II have to take it whether or no. ‘Take it, if you dare ! ’ So at it we went, rough and nimble. An awful destruction now commenced. The bow ot my cravat was squat up in half ol'no time. Vt the next bout smash went shirt oollan, and at the same time some of the head fixings gave way, and down came .Sally’s hair like a flood in a mill dam broke loose, carrying half a dozen combs. One plunge of Salty’s elbow, and my blooming bosom ruffles wasted to the consistency and lortu of on after dinner nap kin. But she had tio time to boast. JSoon her neck-tacking began to shiver, parted at the throat, and away went a string of white beads, scampering and running races every way you could think about the floor. She fought lair, however, t must admit, and when she could light no longer, for want of breath she yielded handsomely, aud her anils fell down by her side—those long, white rosy anas—her hair hung back over tho chair, her eyes half shut, as if she were not able to hold them open a minute long..!', and there lay a lit tle plump mouth in the air ? My goodness ! Did you ever see a hawk pounce upon a robin, or bee on a clover top Bodging a Dun. iconic can scent a dun m any distance, and can dodge him effectively, it is a knack ac quired by long dxperii’ticc. If the dun, how ever, by his experience, becomes expert, the dunned stands a slinl chance of escape. We heard a story the other day of old Dr. G. ot Portsmouth, which isto t lie point, as regards amateur dunning : for there is a wide differ ence between the amateur and the profession al. Dr. G. was a man of great integrity and worth, and his business habits were on the square, exacting every tiling that was his own and paying every man liis due. He Held a note against a gentleman of Hampton for some considerable amount, and wherever he met him the Doctor was ready, note in hand, for the payment of an instalment, i t became at last tin agonizing dread with the debtor about meet ing tho Doctor, particularly tit the time when troubled with a disease known in the financial parlance as “shorts.” But whenever he met him the Doctor’s dun would be anticipated by his debtor's movement lbr liis pocket book, and frequent payments were made without sce ing the note at all. He knew that the Doctor was honest and that it would be all right, and several payments were thus blindly made. A great dearth of funds made him more shy ol meeting the Doctor, and as lie passed through the town his eyes wandered in all directions to catch a glimpse of bis dread and avoid Him if possible, lie succeeded I'm awliile, and out generaled the old man several times; but late dues nut always favor the brave, and the Doc tor from a distant position saw his victim tie his horse to a post and enter a store, lie made all tho haste lie could, and entered the store just as bis debtor dud<rod Lehiml a rice cask.’ •• Didii t i sec Mr.— emuo in here V” asked the Doctor. “ He did come in hero, sir,” said the shop keeper, “but he has gone somewhere now.” The Doctor said lie was not in a hurry, and could wait as well as not: ho saw liis horse at the door, and thought he would be buck before long. The man remained hid, and the old Doc tor waited a long time. At last fie went out. Shortly alter Mr.— himself went out, ami was just stepping upon his wagon when the Doctor darted at him from a door way. “ Belt, Mr. ,” said he, “you needn’t dodge me atty more. That note has been paid tip these six months, and I have been trying to see you that 1 might pay you hack twenty dollars that you over paid me. • - Insurrections. The rumors of a negro in. urteclion in Har rison county, Texas, have led to the appoint ment of a committee to in\. stigutc the matter. Thu committee report that they find no evi dence of any concert of action, or any definite ideas among the negroes of what they would or could do, or any real iiUeuUpu of doing any thing. There had been a good deal of loose talk “about the late election, the prospects of Ercciuont s election, and the belief of some that they would be tree, ti Fremont was elec ted. I’he committee find no evidence that any white man was implicated with the ne groes, but they suggest the necessity for each ami every slave holder keeping a strict watch over his own negroes aud premises, amluotal uwing any negroes but hi.- own to visit liis premise-, without a peeia! p„nuit. They al so rteoin end the keeping up patrols in tb Severni beats ul the county, “tid preventing ne groes from passing from me plantation to an other, midjcarryitig arm- ~c. We think tin be sug feat tons may be equally applicable to many oth - duties. ♦ M • Matilda lleiruii. in playing with great sir ( at < lisp,* Gai< tv. in New Grleaus. TELEGRAPHIC.

There seems to be quite a disposition on the i part of sundry public spirited individuals to S supply with bullion, the deficiency in our cur rency occasioned by the temporary withdrawal ul the Last Tennessee Bank Notes. About ten dny.-j since two men were arrested lor passing counterfeit silver dollars, and were found to have a considerable quantity of the same sort in the vaults of their pantaloons. They were adjudged guilty aud admitted to bail. Wc learn that they have absconded and left their securities in the suds. •hi Saturday last, two others were arrested for attempting to pass counterfeit gold coin. They were fodnd to be well supplied with ma terial which purported to be gold coin ul the denomination of five dollars. His worship, Esquire Seay, pronounced the article spurious, and, in default of bail, they were committed to jaii to await the action of a higher tribunal.— Knox nth. (Tom.) Ha/. Dec. I<S. - - Another Proposed Church Bivisiou. A meeting of delegates respecting the Meth odist Protestant Church in the West recently took place at Springfield, Ohio, when the fol lowing resolution, among others was adopted: Resolved, That wc cotrimend to the several Northern and Western Conferences to appoint at their next session their representatives as usual and clothe them with conventional pow ers, to instruct them to meet in the city of Cin cinnati, Ohio, on the 2d Wednesday in Nov., 1857, andthen and there determine whether they will attend the General Conference to be field at Lynchburg, Yu., in May, 1858: or whether they will lake measures for the organ ization ot a General Conference embracing on ly annual conferences opposed to the system of American slavery. It is said that only fifteen persons attended the Springfield meeting, but that resolution was .adopted by a vote of 11 to 1. + The Selma (Ala.) Sentinel is responsible for the following local item : A lady acquaintance of ours, who has al ways resided in the country, until recently, re moved into our city to have the advantages of our schools for her children. She was visited not. long since by one of our fashionable aud literary ladies, and during their conversation about a lady whom they had previously known in some of the Eastern States, our fashionable lady in speaking of their mutual acquaintance among other things said, site was quite litera ry ; aud I agree with you, drawled out the country lady, “ She is very titter,/, for she lias had fourteen gals and eleven boys and everv oue ol them is a livin .’ This was enough to shock our city lady, but she mustered up her courage, changed the subject, aud talked of something which she thought would better suit her country friend’s taste. Which she did for some time, and at last, becoming wearied, and as she was about bidding her friend good bye, she was solicited to call again, and replying, as any other city lady would, she said, she would return with exquisite pleasure, when, to her great surprise, the lady said, 1 know nothing about your Mr. “exquisite pleasure,” don t bring him here to bother my gals, but when you come agin, bring your old man, if you please. This was enough, and our city lady as she hut t ied off, exclaimed satin jam satin. - Hot Dead. A sailor had wandered into a churchyard, and was amusing himself by reading the in scriptions on the grave stones. Presently he came to one on wnieh was inscribed the fol lowing: “ Weep not lor me my dearest dear, 1 am not dead though 1 lie here.” I his was too much tor Jack. Shifting his quid, he ejaculated: “Well, I’ve heard say Hint there are cascsin which a titan may lie; but if 1 was dead I’d own it.” LOOK OUT FOtt SOMETHING INIGFi TTOIR, CHRISTMAS.
