A pas senger, who politely favored us with the above pa per, states that the Captain and crew of the brig mentioned below, had arrived at Matanzas, having been taken oIF by a coasting schooner, with some materials belonging to the brig, and that she bad been sold at Mat inzas, on tl c lieef as she stood, for $4 25c. The suspicions of the British Officers, as mentioned below, that this was a case of Piracy, were, therefore, incorrect. —Charleston Patriot. Havana, June 23. The Am. brig Montevideo, belonging Belfast, (Me.) under the command of an officer of her B. M. s!oop-of-\var, Pickle, with a crew of seven men. and a cargo of Molasses, and Fustic, arrived at this port yesterday. The officers report, that cruizing on the 13th instant, olf the mouth of the old Bahama Channel, the found ashore at Key Gu inclio, the above named brig, with nothing but car go on board, the cabin having been ransacked, and a boring being commenced on the starboard side of the vessel. Upon reconnoitering the Key, there was discov ered a tire, about being extinguished, a dog about the lire, and a box ol papers, that gave informa tion of the name, &c. of the brig, sho being from IS'euvitas, bound to New York, whi« h caused the officer to suspect that the brig must have been taken by pirates, and that they had made their e-cape as soon as they perceived the vessel of war, as they found no living soul on board the brig, or on the Key. A Reminiscence of Maktin Van Bures. —The editor of the Evening Journal in remar king upon the letter of a Louisville shoemaker, who lately renounced Van Burcnism, relates the following anecdote of Marlin Van Burenanda Kinderhook shoemaker. “In the summer of 1811 we were an apprentice in the office ol “The Lynx,”a newspaper printed in Onondaga-Hollow by Thomas Crittenden I Fay.—Among the village politicians was a jour neyman shoemaker of the name of Brown, who had worked at Kinderhook long enough to im bibe a high estimation of Martin Van Buren, who, in his estimation, was the beau ideal of Republicanism and eloquence. Brown talked so much and so warmly of his Kinderhook friend, that wc came to regard him with equal admira tion. The printing office and shoemaker’s shop were in the same building. One afternoon, while sitting by our oracle, who was “ waxing his end,” the stage drove past, and Brown, to his inexpressible delight, espied Mr. Van Buren among the passengers! He was in ecstacics. The strap and lap-stone were thrown aside, and having performed his ablutions, the warm hearted shoemaker hastened to the stage house (kept by John Adams,) to interchange greetings with his friend. We, anxious to see a Republi -1 can whom we had Icen taught to admire, walked 1 respectfully along on the opposite side of the street. Mr. Van Buren was strutting with a peacock’s air and plumage on the piazza. Brown approached Mr. Van Buren eagerly, look his hand and gave it a hearty shake before he descovcred that the great man had forgotten him! “Why, sir, my name is Brown. lam your old associate and friend. We have passed many days and nights together.—You cannot have , forgotten me !” but he had forgotten him ; and alter a few embarras sed inquiries and artificial replies, the repulsed friend walked oil'pained and mortified to see a professing Republican play the practical Aristo crat. The poor journeyman shoemaker spoke no more of “Martin Van Buren,” and in a few days afterwards, picked up his “ kit ” and with a wounded spirit “ tramped ” out of the vil lage. We have a distinct recollection of Van Bu ren’s looks and manner on that occasion. They were supeicilious and foppish. He was the same coxcomb and dandy then that he is now. We hated and despised him then for thus heart lessly insulting an humble, but honest admirer and friend, and all that we have seen and known of him since, has led us to hate and despise him still more.” The Defaulter’s Farewell. Air —The Bride's Farewell . Fare well, Amos ! thou art filling Extra Globes with extra lies ; , I would aid thee,oh, how willing ! But my dark fate onward cries Farewell, Amos, now I leave thee, — Hopes auJ fears my bosom swell; "Where I go they may believe me— Thou could'st never, Fare thee well ! Farewell, Martin ! thou art smiling, But there’s sadness on thy brow ; Vain the hope that’s now beguiling. Vain the trust that fills ihee now. Farewell, Martin ! ihou didst give me Office, ere thy fortunes fell; And I’ll love, although I leave thee, Suffering Martin, fare thee well! Farewell, Calhoun ! thou art turning. As thou didst when first wc met, Still thy patriot bosom burning, On the strongest side to get. Farewell, mild and gentle Levi, Though more dear than words can tell, Amos ! Martin ! Calhoun I Levi ! All belov’d ones, fare ye well. From the Louisville Journal. Oh i Had we only met. Oh ! had wo only met, when life and hope were new, When love, unmingled with regret, lay on oui hearts like dew, I had not heaved a sigh, when wrapt in that sweet trance, I raised my own and met fiine eye, returning glance for glance. Oh ! do not prize me less, for yielding to the power, The soft delicious dreaminess, that filled that twi light hour, I thought its spells were thine, around my spirit wove, And half-forgot it was not mine to give thee love for love. Love ! did I call it love ? it will not bear the name, A softer thought our bosoms moved, a tenderer, milder (lame, I felt it in the tone, that thrilled thy low reply. As thy warm lip, beside ray own, responded sigh for sigh. d love thee not, but oh ! if wc had met in youth, V hen first we dreamed of passion’s glow, its fer vor and its truth, Perhaps it had been mine with whispers soft and lo w, To place my little hand in thine, and murmur vow for vow. Dear one ! for dear thou ait, thou know’st it is not mine To lift the veil from this deep heart, nor yet to gaze in thiiie. But oh I were 1 to speak, of all I hop? an 1 near. Even thou would’st scarcely deem it weak —to give me tear for tear. Amelia, Liteuahy Curiosity.—The commencement m iLe Rev. Hardy M.

Ihe sales of Wednesday only amoun ted to 600 bales, on 1 bursday they were 1100, and , yesterday about 1200 bales. This inactivity, how evei, has been less owing to a want of demand, i than to other causes, among which we may enu [ meiate as the most prominent, the difficulty of en gaging vessels unless at advanced rates, there be ing butfew now unemployed—the scarcity of Lou isiana and Mississippi cottons, especially of the better grades, whicii continue to be in the greatest reque>t, and the high pretensions of holders, who are but little disposed to realize even at our pre sent quotations, which, it will be seen, are a quarter ol a cent higher than previously. Our receipts have now dwindled down to a very trifling amount per week, and as the season is so well advanced, we must expect them to continue light until the grow ing crop begins to ome forward. The sales for the week amount to 13,709 bales, and for the last three days to 2,900. LIVERPOOL CLASSIFICATIONS.

There is some enquiry for shipment to the North,but we have heard of no sales of impor tance within the last day or two. Some lots are going on ship-board which were disposed of some days since. The receipts, since our iast, have been very light, owing probably to the rainy weather having prevented the loading of schooners and steamboats, at plantations. There is, however, an ample supply on the Levee, though the greater part is in the hands of speculators, who are still firm at our previous quotations—say 3$ a 5$ cts.; indeed, as high as 5$ and 5J have been obtained fur some small parcels of very choice quality. We have heard of no transactions on plantation since our last. The greater part of the stock has - now passed into second hands, leaving but few crops for sale by the planters. Molasses. —There is oily a moderate stock on the Levee, but the very limited demand has caused a further slight define in prices. Vve now quote at 17 alB cents per gallon for barrels. We are not advised of any transactions on plantation. Flour. —In our report of Wednesday morning last, we represented the market as being dull, though fir n, particularly for fresh arrivals, at $3 62$ a 3 75, for Superfine, with a tendency to im prove. Since then a little better demand has been experienced, though the transactions are still very limited, and the firmness of holders has ena bled them to obtain a slight advance. We now quote Superfine at $3 75 a £3 87$, remarking that some few sales of fresh flour, of favorite brands, have been made as high as $4 00. At the same time there are parcels that have been some time in store, which can probably be bought at something less than our lowest figures Among the sales of the last three days, we notice 450 bbls for export to Cuba at $3 75, and 400 bbls for city use at $3 87$. The receipts continue limited, and hol ders of fiesh parcels at the Levee are very firm, some refusing to sell even at $4 00.

The wife knew of the fact, for it was to her I addressed myself. When I arrived at the landing, I came off leaving my cloak, which was carried off by the individuals alluded to. The lady, if I mistake not, told me they were moving from South Carolina to the western part of this State, (Georgia). If any kind friend could give me the clue to their names, or the place to which they were travelling, so that I may obtain my valuable cloak, he would confer a favor upon one who at limes is too forgetful for his own interest.

I PEDIGREE. J. R. H. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows : —“ Tom Tunstall was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; 1 the sire of Highland Mary was old PacoleL Tom ■ Tunstall was sired by old Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ • 1 arn satisfied Tom Tunstall has descended from as Hood a stock as any horse in the United States.— ; He was a race horse of tiie first order, but I fear > will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year 5 old, in training, as 1 believe. By addressing Har dy Cryer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full 5 pedigree of the dam of Tom Tunstall.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus: —“ Highland Mary 5 combined as many or more rich crosses of thorougn breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee. — She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of - imported Citizen ; her dam Rosey Carey by Sir 1 Archie; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported • horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charlemaine, > (son of O’Kellev’s Eclipse, and one of the purest importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand ' dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great -5 great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ? terrace horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great s greal-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; 1 great-great-great-great-great-grand -dam by Lee’s ' old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou- J key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie.
