Au intelligent Baltimorean who ha# spent #orne time ui an extended tour on tlie Conti at nt o , Europe, and is now purging Ins travels m Kussia, has uuuMiiitted to iiis mends at home tiie tullow ii,ir interesting loiter of id# impressions of the an cient eanital of that empire : | Moscow, July 2< tli, lt>o2. ** *«•*«•** My letters contain but a faint impression of the pleasure ana satisfaction 1 havejiau in my visit to Ru-sia, (little as 1 have seen of it) tor you must re member tiiul 1 staid but a few days at 6t. Betel s burgh, intending to see more ot it on my return, and 1 nave been here only two days ; though it is probable 1 have had tne good fortune to see more in that short time than one traveller out ot a thou sand who has visited Moscow. Thinking it prudent to come on here at once while I was well and tne weather good, I made up my mind after consulting with friends to set out on Saturday in the forenoon train, so as to arrive here on Sunday morning at 9 o’clock —say in twenty-two hours. This was accomplished with the utmost punctuality, and as the whole distance, about 400 miles, is laid olf in three hrsl class sta tions; cue precisely hair way and the other tv,o j intermediate between the centres and the ex tremes, making four great stages of 100 miles each* and eacn of these tour stages again subdi vided into eight minor stages with a second rate station ut the end of each. 1 found that wo reach ed thj end of the first 100 miles at half past 4 o clock, cr in five and a half hours, whore we dined, and the centre or end of 20u miles ut 10 o’clock, live and a half hours more, where we supped. The next llr-st class station, or end of 300 miles, we reached at half past 3 in the morning and Moscow at 9 o’clock. Making tlie rate of our speed, after deducting the long stoppages of supper and din ner, to which 1 have refer re 1, and those for lunch on the first day, and breakfast on the second morning, which 1 did not refer) not less than thirty utile* an I. <ur, for the running time. Tne road is made with a double track througli on;, and the stations and depots for passengers, engine houses and machine workshops,, ere all completed inn style of great elegance and comfort, but the Emperor has still to meet a vast outlay for merouaudbe depots, and for the building of ad -ditionai houses ut all stations, for the accomodation i of the numerous cmployeis on the road, including I 2,000 persons in the service of the Messrs. Winane, 1 and di'persod along the route to carry out their i contract for twelve years, not long since com- j meixccd, to keep all the cars, engines, «fec.,in good ! running order, and to return them at the end of ; that time unimpaired (withduc allowance for wear I and tear,) they receiving periodically acompensa- | t!on which it is thought will greatly augment : tiie fortunes they and their partners have reaiized ! by their former contract for building and equip- | ping the engines, carriages and all other appropri- ; ate equipages. Tuc carriages a ere pretty full and wore as comfortable as tho ß e ot other railways in Eu- j rope. The cost of a ticket for the 400* miles is ! about twenty silver roubles, or sls. The second 1 class carriages v'm which I wax) arc quite as cum- i fortabie as our first class cars, with arm-chairs well ! cushioned and the scats arranged precisely as in our cars, with an alley in the centre, and each ! long car holding about fifty or sixty persons. Tne cost here was thirteen silver roubles, or $lO. The third class, in which were several decent peo ple and especially females, are covered, with a i lew glass windows, arranged as to seats, like the I second class cars, but each seat, without any j , cushion, being a Jong oench of wood, and the price ' seven silver roubles, or $5 to $6. The fourth class were uncovered, cars of about the same length as the otiiers, with wooden benches, but without backs to them as in the third class, and the price of tickets was 1 presume very low*, and probably four siivcr roubles or $3. It appeared to me the carriages were generally fall, and I observed that ■g casionally por»ou# joined us in the second class cur.- tuat ha i to stand until liiey could lind scuts. They seemed to know very accurately what calcu late ms to maice of the number of passengers at any particular time and to regulate the number of oars accordingly. 1 separated from the only acquaintance I ! Inal in tiie train, a respectable German merchant who spoke English perfectly, and who to bis re gret t.-okii first class ticket and never found any more than I, a person to converse witli except when indeed we got oat at the principal stations, and I ii i i passed the day and night in silence, and \v;i> approaching the station next to Moscow wneii I beard a good looking man, who had joined us early in the morning with ins little daughter, sav t * her “ offer some of your raspberries (which I* lie had just given her) to those Judies on the other side of the carriage. 1 instantly approached and spoke to him and ; the kind-hearteu manner in wiiich this worthy j and weli doing Scotch mechanic from Glasgow re- f ceived and t reate 1 me is worthy of a long chapter i if 1 should he fool enough to write a book, but | there is no danger of that. Ho told me that he 1 had been eighteen years employed as a plumber, | and had during that time done all the government ; work here and that of tiie nobility and wealthy cit- | izeus in the way of bath fixtures, water closets Arc., etc.; that lie received as much a# s3ooper annum from the University alone for looking after and keeping in repair its conveniences; that he had laid up a comfortable independence for bis wife and cuildreu, and knew ilia, he could continue to i do well in Russia; that by remaining boro seven j years longer i.e would be entitled to a pension of S6OO, one-half of which would go to Ins children and the other halfto his wife during widowhood; but that his wife and children all had an intense longer j Togo and settle in the United States, and that they j constantly read and studied publications illnstra*- j ting the resources of America, and that the desire j t" and resolution of hU whole family to emigrate and settle in one our Western States were constantly , B fortified by reflection and would be gratified as ' soon as lie could wind up his business hero and • jjjk leave honorably and without loss. He then ex- ( pressed his joy at falling in with au American * gentleman, the second one he had ever seen, and I again aduding to his humble though independent position as a mechanic, begged me to allow him to ne useful, and said he would Had time as he had the power to introduce me to the new palace and { other remarkable buildings in the Kremlin, as well a# the chuichc#, there and throughout the city. it was in vain, had I been so disposed, to resist thahospitality of this good Samaritan, and the mo- s •nent we reached tne depot here I hurried by* Mr. McMullen with his Htrle daughter into a drosky J i,m and whipped off to his house; a neat, comfortable j «>ne, were kindly met by his estimable ; wife, a line German wonran brought up in Russia, and his other children, who, like the mother, talk j ■gaw English, French and German, as well r.s Kuss, and who in an instant caressed me as a stray American their father had providentially picked up, in accor dance with their united penchant to become citi „. as of that Republic, They had been uneasy at the failure of Mr. McMullen and his daughter to come the day before, as expected, from a visit to an old nobleman in the country, who had invited him to spend a few days at his splendid country house, on the occasion of his birth-day, (Mr. McM. being a favorite of his''' and who detained them by force of ids hospital will a day longer than was con template 1. This afforded me the pleasure of fall ing m with on the railway, and of accompanying to their house, the worthy father of this family and his sweet little daughter. Auer sitting down to a comfortable breakfast, and Such tea as you will never di ink till you come to Russia, inquiries wore made of “ papa” whether Miss Victoria hud conducted hereselt on this fiist visit to a noble family (where she had the old Count’s grand-daughter tor a plflyinatej with due propriety, and upon a satisfactory answer being given, the children rose Mieoessivelv from table, each on# saying, "Thank you papa,” ‘‘Thank you mamma," as they turned from one present to the other. 1 w s much touched with this dutiful cereui my, so expressive of filial affection, and so well ca’c'uSated to preserve it—and this led me to remark the modest refinement of the mother, who T found had been brought up as the humble com panion of the young ladies, and encouraged to par ticipate with them iu all the advantages of educa tion they enjoyed. Mr. McMullen took me yesterday in his drosky, from breakfast to dinnertime, all over the city, and alter visiting the museum of the University, con ducted me to tho great tower of the Kremlin, which contains thirty-one bells, many of enormous size, two of which are of silver, and the largest of baser metals, weighing about forty tons. But this * was only one of tiie many towers in the Kremlin, not to speak of the two thousand supposed to be in all Moscow, some of the churches having a do- ( zon, and most of them five or six, and few being wiUfemt bells. The “monster bell" is in the open ] court or phiee not far from where I ascended, and weighs sixty tons. Jt is eighteen feet high, and 1 its diameter ayhcrrm fount en feel. About 150 I years ago* t.xistvdi, which was hung up fell and buried iisctfcomplotely in the ground, where it re- j tnaineufor more than one luma red years. Butin ] 1880 it was raised and placed on the stone founda- ( lion prepared for it, and where it now remains, he- < I ingj ist so much elevated above the that -■ one cm walk under it mid imagine oneself in a ' good sized hut, to which light is admitted through an aperture as large as the half of a very large round dining table, caused by the fracture of a piece atone side of the lower fim. which piece nas ; pot b#«n soldered or cemented, but is allowed to 1 r remain as it is for the double purpose of commem orating the downfall and of admitting light. From the Kremlin we passed out through the Holy Gate (where every one, not excepting the Czar, is required to take off his hat going in or coming out i« honor of tho image of the Virgin, which is hung np over the outside as well as the inside of the gate) to seethe famous nondescript edifice, one of the oldest in Moscowand one of the most curious churches in the world, having thir teen towers and not one like the other. But we could not find the keeper, and therefore postponed seeing tho inside until we go back to-day to the Kremlin to see tiie new palace; the old church there (the first iu Moscow land the arsenal, which, besides arms, contains the crown jewels at' Russia. These jewels murk the conquests and acquisitions of the Czar’s from the earliest times to the present day, and I have been informed that those well ac quainted with Russian history, can point out this instructive collection of the crowns ot the different countries conquered by Russia, the progress of her augmentation of territory, and the scries ot her several conquests in Europe, Asia and Ameri ca. If you throw out of view the Kremlin, the old walls which surround it, those which enclose the old city proper, and the multitude of gilded or green painted and parti-colored domes of all sorts (but most of them in tho style of mivants, of oriental architecture,) which adorn or disfigure the churches, there is nothing iu modern Moscow, re built on the foundation of the houses destroyed by fire in 1812, different from most of the Conti nental cities 1 have visited, except that some of its streets arc very wide, and so far more like St. Pe tersburg than any other place. In looking out from my window, in a fine build ing at the corner of two broad streets, the hand some houses all of stone, three or four stories high, in good taste, with abundant ornaments in stucco, fine doorways, et cetera , which are in view, only remind mo of the fine cities of Italy, Germany, Denmark, and Sweden, and there is nothing to mark the change of country but the universal drosky, and the costumes which distinguish the drivers of these vehicles and various other classes of the people. For example, the merchant wears a long black dress, not unlike that worn by priests in the street, with a peculiar black cap, rather high, and having a small rim iu front; and these grave looking men of trade, having also very long beards, under nicer culture than the beards of the drosky driver# and others of the lower classes, which are never neat but often very much the reverse. An to the women, they are dressed much like other women in tho cities of the United States as well as of all Europe. Go where you will you see the same classes of women in the cities, dressed in the same fashion—the same bonnets, shawls, veils, ribbons, mantles, dresses of silk, cotton, of other material, and generally iu imitation of wlial Is un lerstood to be the last mode in Paris. I am compelled to say that the women in Eu rope generally are not■ good looking, and I have seen so few handsome ones, except m tho higher circles of London, that I look back with no little pride upon the la;r sex of our own land in the length and breadth of it. True it i# that female beauty abounds more in one part than another, and 1 think wo may say without vanity that ours is the favored latitude where womanly beauty i • to be found in greater perfection than ’in any - other i part of our continent. 1 But I call your attention to a fact on which you ; can rely as uu undoubted one, which distinguishes j the case of onr Continent, in regard to the de j volopment of female beauty in different latitudes, • from that of Europe. With as —assuming our I temperate latitude of Maryland as the best for the ; production of the handsomest women, of the most ' delicate form, feature and complexion—we must | admit that wc find these characteristics detcriora : ting more rs you go South than as you go North ; , but Am? in Europe, assuming that the handsomest women are to be found in an intermediate latitude, it is quite tire contrary to what it is with us as ! regards the North and South—for here, as you go | South, you continue to find tho attractions'of fe ' male beauty, though under a different form, ind ■ generally under a darker complexion; whereas. ! coming North, you seldom fall iu with a good look i ing woman, so plain are the great majority of ; them, and if there in such a thing as a handsome woman in those Northern latitudes, it has not been my good fortune to see or even hear of her, and I must be pardoned if, remembering the old Latin I law provere, "de nmiappareutibuset non e.nstentihus | eadein est,"‘ the., I adhere to the opinion that a i beautiful woman is a ram ads North ol Germany. Moscow, Tuesday Afternoon, July 27th.* I have visited the new palace, remarkable church es, drc., and will be able to return to-morrow to St. Petersburg'.!, after spending three days here in the most satisfactory manner. The new palace of the Kremlin is magnificent and some of its immense hall# are in size and splendor superior to anything of the kind I have seen in my travels. St. George’* Hall, which, if I may so express myself, is dedica ted to the chivalry of Russia, as the famous one at Windsor is to a similar purpose in England, can not he described, and after all is very little supe rior to two others en suite with it. The Emperor’s private cabinet i# in the best possible taste, having ho superfluous furniture or decoration of any kind’ but every thing there and in the other rooms of moderate size appropriated to his use, being as simple as possible, and the few modern pictures that are hungup being illustrative of the overthrow of Napoleon in his invasion of Russia. One of them represents him looking with anxiety at tire burning of Moscow, the red glare of light being reflected on his sad and astonished countenance. Another, and indeed several, show him in all the confusion of his retreat, and the last in the series represents him iu a sledge, deserting his ruined army and hurrying back to France, to prepare as j he did for the great conflict iu which he was over [ thrown. ’ I saw, however, in his cabinet a small but very fine equestrian bronze bust of Napoleon placed I very near the writing table of Nicholas, and 1 ; think there is a fine portrait of him hanging up iu ! some part of the palace, ail showing the profound ; respect in which this groat man was and is held ; even here whore his mad ambition inflicted so much mischief on the invaded nation a# weli as ut>ou himself and tha nation over which he ruled. Tnose only who visit thi» country can form a just idea of the vast undertaking of Napoleon in this disastrous campaign of 1812. Moscow, Wednesday July 2Sth. j 1 have seen the inside of that queer church to which I have alluded. Its numerous chapels arc j so connected together, one under each tower, and j every thing so irregular, that the winding passages form a sc.„ of labrynth, and it require# the aid of j the keener to pilot you through all the different i parts. This is the famous church which being completed the architect was asked whether ho } could build one like it, and on his reply ing that ho i thought he could improve on it, the Czar ordered hi# eye# to be put out, aud that cruel sentence was ■ carried into effect to prevent hi# ever building an j other church. I alto saw tho famous church, near the suifd] old palace in the Kremlin, where the Czars are crown ed. This is interesting only as tiie coronation ; church ol Russia. The small old palace is tho one where the Imperial family reside when they come I to Moscow, which is no*w very oiten, and then only for a short time. The new palace is distant • from it several hundred yards, and is only a show palace, though it has been and will continue to be i used for great Court fetes. Arc. 1 was much amused in visiting what is called the i “lousy market,” where the lowest orders, incln i ding thieves and pickpockets, meet to buy and sell old clothes, <tc., most of them stolen goods. This has been au immemorial custom in Moscow, and you see there poor devils bargaining for a filthy ragged shirt, and things of that description, with as much earnestness as the merchants are bargain ing not far off iu the streets near the Exchange for teas and oth#r merchandise of groat value. You see there the merchants at their exchange all day long, and as you pass among them it is easy to dis tinguish that the different groups are Circassians, Armenians, Russians, «fcc., as the case may be. Those of each nation standing together, and being marked by their national costumes. I ought to mention that the tea houses of Mos cow are very numerous, and so much frequented that a Russian spends more of his time undercover at a tea house than in his store or dwelling. All bargains are made in teahouses, and parties about to make a contract, always repair to such au estab lishment and proceed with iheir busiuess, at tho same time sipping tea. If they do not finish the business, they agree to nieet again at the tea house, and in fact nothing in the way of business is brought forward or concluded here except under the influence of tea drinking. Some of these cb tablishments arc of enormous size and employ a large number of waiters, but yon find them, largo or small, everywhere. The tea is generally drank from glass tumblers and without inilk or' cream, but always with sugar; and tho quality of the tea is universally and often superior; each es tablishment priding itself on the high character of the tea, which you know is brought overland from China. I shall be off in half an hour for St. Petersburg, • where I shall arrive at 9 o’clock to-morrow.

Quite a discussion has sprung up between some j of the New-Orieans journals in reference to the votes of Wm. R. King, of Alabama, the Democratic candidate for Vice-President, on the United Slates ■ Bank and Bankrupt Law. The Courier denies, and shows that he voted against the bills passed in 1840, and the Bulletin, seems to doubt whether it had not been ral-taken in charging him with vo . ting for both a Bank and Bankrupt Law. This * was a very adroit manoeuvre in the Courier, to deny and disprove what nobody, who knew anything of i the history of those event?, ever charged. Mr. j King was charged with voting for the Bank Bill of ' * 1816 and the Bankrupt La tv of 1827 —we think ’27 ’ was the year. Every man who had watched Mr. > I King’s course, knew that he was too servile a fol t I lower of Jackbox to have voted for a Bank bill in j 18-io, however his better judgment might Lavedic ; i lutedits constitutionality and public necessity. l We are not surprised at the eager anxiety of the i j Democratic organs to relieve their candidate from ' | the dilemma, especially as the support of those - | measures constitute now, in their estimation, the > ; only true embodiment of Federalism, notwith : J standing the Bank charter of ISI6 was supported f by the Republicans and opposed by the Federalists. ; j Blit they cannot relieve Mr. King from the meshes 1 ! which his own votes have woven for him, and which the records of Congress abundantly estab ? lifsli. He was a member of Congress from North 1 Carolina from ißll to 1816—and voted for every ’ Bank Bill acted upon in Congress during those . years. We recapitulate. November 2-th, 1814,he voted for a Bank bill, which was rejected. This ; bill was re-considered and amended, and on the 2d January, 1815, came up on its final passage, when r Mr. King voted for it again—it tfus a second time > rejected, and after being re-cousidered and ameud ‘ ed, was finally passed on the 7Lh January, 1815, when Mr. King voted for it again —the third time - This bill was p evented from becoming a law by ’ the veto of Mr. Madison. r ’ Notwithstanding these repeated defeats, the Ro s publicans in Congress persisted in their efforts to 1 re-charter u Bank, and on the IGih of March, 1816, the Bank charter was passed, for which Mr. King f again voted, and then oceanic a law. ? As to the Bankrupt Law, wo have not at hand ' tile documents to refer to, and cannot give the dates, ! except from recollection. We think a Bankrupt i bill was before Congress in 1c27, when Mr. Kins taken in the fact that he voted for it, when it v. as upon its final passage. If we err, the correction is easily made, but we are well satisfied our memo | i ry is not at fault. ! , As to his votes for the Bank charter, we speak 1 from the record. There can, therefore, be no mi»- take in that. And, what is n little remarkable, or ) 5 may appear so to Georgians, who have not inform . ) ed themselves, among those who voted for the k j Bank charter of ISI6, were Alfred Cuthbeet, Juun Forsyth, Wilson Lumpkin, and Richard H. ; Wilde, of Georgia. Tiie only vote in eitherHoure, ) from Georgia, against tbo bill, was Bollin® Hall. ; > Alfbed CrximtßT and Wilson Lumpkin are now ! violeutuuti-bank men. It was a Republican measure M in 1816, and they voted for h. They then acted ■ j with the Republican party, and say they have not ■ I changed. We all know, the constitution nor the , i principles of the Bank charter have not been i i changed or altered—yet they are now. according * ! to their version, the only true Republicans, and j the advocacy of a Bank, according to the Demo. . | oratic nomenclature, makes a man n Federalist. ; Noah .Strong, Esq., ' f Forsyth county, has been I placed on the Webster Electoral Ticket in place of i Warren Akin, Esq., who declined the nomina i lion. This is an excellent selection. Mr. Strong, I , ' j although u private citizen, has been long and favo rably known in that section of the State, for Ins high character and sterling integrity. Troup and QuUtnau .Meeting. We understand, says the Columbus Enquire, | that at a meeting of the Southern Rights party of this county, hold at Concert Hall, in tins city, on \ Saturday last, Gov. Troup, of this State, and Gov, Quitman, of Missis-ippi, were nominated for President and Vice President. Judge John A. Jones, of Paulding, and John A. Tucker, Esq., of Stewart, were put forth for Electors for the State at large, ana Capt. A. 11. Cooper, of this city, for this Congressional Dis trict, with a recommendation to the other districts each to nominate its own candidate. Wenowhnve, in this Stale, five different tickets for President. Th at man must, be fastidious in deed who cannot find one to his ta.-te out of .-o many. We should not be surprised to see this ticket, if one be made, get quite a number of Secession votes. For there is no denying the fact that the New Hampshire Brigadier is a very bitter pill to his party in Georgia—and many of them “loathe'' the idea of voting for him, nearly as much us be “ loathes ” tha institution of slavery. They hon estly believe he is altogether too obscure, and quite too scant a pattern tor a statesman —that be is an exceedingly small, narrow man, with views . entirely too contracted and circumscribed to be at the head of this great Republic of Freemen.

A ’Wi I I 1 I KJUMIMW-IMWMggTi | Atlantic and Pacific Canal. —We published a paragraph recently announcing that Mr. Gather wood, tho artist, had just left New York for Chagres, in connection with the London project ol constructing a ship canal across the Isthmus of Darien. The New York Post furnishes the fol lowing particulars: The route has the advantage of any others pro posed, that it is shorter and is to be so constructed i as to accommodate vessels of every dimension and I tonnage. It is designed to communicate between i San Miguel, on the Pacific, and the nearest point, on the opposite shore—a distance of about fifty miles; of which only thirty would require to be cut, the remaining twenty being navigable by a small river which empties into the Gulf of Darien. It is proposed to make the canal thirty feetdeep, and to construct it without locks, which the for mation of the country and tho peculiar tidal cur rents of the two opposite waters seem to make not only practicable but j referable. it has been ascertained that the waters iu the Caribbean !sea rise and fall 24 inches, while that , of the Pacific rise and fall 24 feet. This curious : ordination of nature, would give to the waters of j a canal communicating between the two seas, a I tide each way once a day, with twelve feet head— a sufficient motive force to deliver vessels from one fide to the other in a single tide, without any other I propulsion, tints rendering the tow path and loco motive power of a!l kinds superfluous, whether for sail vessels or steamboats. The deepest cut to be made in the whole dis tance is only one hundred and twenty-five feet, I I #ad the cost is estimated at £7,000,000. The ; ! prcmmeuL Lai ties to the project in London are i j Messrs. Henderson, the architects of the j | Crystal Palace. They have procured a survey to i , be made by Mr. Gisborne, un eminent English en gineer, from whose report we gather most of the foregoing particulars. Abbott Lawrence, our late Minister to England, also, is understood to have tin interest in the enterprise. From the character of the parties, and the en couraging tenor of Mr. Gisborne's report, there is reason to hope that a ship channel is destined finally to be opened between the Atlantic and Pa cific oceans in New Granada.

A ■ graduate of Trinity Cdlege, Dublin, with an expo- ; rienco of thirty years in the profession of teaching, : he is eminently qualified for the duties of Pri :i- \ ■/d of that institution. I congratulate the Trustees | and the public on having at the bead of the Rich- ' j mond Academy, a Rector under whom the estab- ; ; lishment cannot but flourish. I anticipate a large i ! increase in the number of students during the j scholastic vcar now about to commence; and I i doubt not that tho institution will become daily | more popular under its present management.

Our readers have not quite forgotten the collision on Laks Erie of tho steamer Atlantic and the pro peer Ogduiisburg, by which the former was sunk | and several hundred persons suddenly precipitated ' into eternity. A statement of facts recently pub lished by the captain of the propeller discloses the 1 follow iug particulars: ( It was impossible, says Captain Richardson, to j ascertain for some considerable time how much damage bad been done to the propeller. The stem 1 ad apparently been wrenched from its place, and ; if such was the ease, the sinking of tho propeller • was inevitable. He accordingly lowered a boat to * learn the worst, and found the sftm of the pro peller completely turned from its place. The dis- p 1 acen»ent of the stem, on which rested the for ward portion of the promenade deck, caused the •leek to settle, aud from this they were fearful that tho propeller was sinking. The steamer had kept along iu her course at full speed, until the engine was checked by the water putting out the tires. Gaplain Richardson inferring from this that the steamer had e- caped, and his ow n vessel left in a sinking condition, at once put after the steamer for hi- own safety, making every exertion to signalize her by ringing the bell and other means. The passengers also felt persuaded that tho steamer had abandoned them, and were devising means for dieir own safety, either b% discharging the deck load with which the propeller was freighted, or by j running her on the beach. What seems very strange in the whole matter, 1 and what has produced such a fearful result, is : 1 1 1 at the Atlantic should have been suffered to pro i cced on her course by the officers, regardless of | their own safety, or the safety of the propeller. | Cut such was the fact, end the reckless criminality of the conduct of the officers of that vessel, even after her condition was ascertained, chills the j blood with horror, and calls loudly for the exeera- : tiou of every rational mind. The propeller con- i tinned her chase after the steamer, and ere long I the wailing cry of the victims of the catastrophe ' broke upon the ear. As they hastened to the ill-fated vessel, the first hail for assistance came from a small boat, in which wore Captain Petty aud two of his officers. He j was hailed in this wise, “I am Captain Petty, of i tho Atlantic—save me first!’ 4 The officers with I him joining iu the cry, 44 this is Captain Petty, of I the Atlantic—save ns first!”. Captain Petty and hia companions were taken on board and properly ; car'-d for. But how fared it with the other suffer ers? Little did these men who were saved care for the fate of the others. On the contrary, the j first salutation that came to the ears of their de •leUvcrers was— 44 For God's sake don’t go near the steamer; there are six hundred passengers on board, and they will sink you. Captain Rich ardson did not* heed their protestations, but he hastened to the ill-fated Atlantic. As be came up with the wreck, he discovered the perilous condition of the vessel, and set to work to rescue 1 the victims. Much care and caution was necessary, , as tho propeller was in a perilous condition, her j bow t rn out and leaking badly—the water threet ! ing to gain on the pumps, three of which re i 1 kept working. Nothing daunted, the captain and j crew of the propeller, by skillful manojuvering, j j succeeding in approaching the wreck stern on, | and taking off the passenger®. The propeller cou j tinned to play about the wreck for several hours, until all that could be, were saved. United States Mint.—We copy from the N.

Coy’s gun squad, with artillery, j and two bands of music accompanied us. The ! progress along the river was marred with denrou j stations at every landing. ! At Concord a large number of persons assembled, ! lining the banks of the river. When the boat i reached the landing, citizen- of Kentucky crowded | on board, and the boat was compelled t-r stop half ' an hour. Many soldiers came on board, undone old soldier who had fought with Gen Scott through ' the wars was much affected when he shook hands | with his old commander. At Manchester, Ohio, the greatest demonstrations j took place. The boat reached this plate at half an hour Before dusk. The banks were crowded with people, and cannon sent back the roar of artillery ; on board. Across the landing was spread u broad 1 j banner, bearing trie inscription—“ One hundred ; guns tor old Chippewa.’’ Delegations came on ! board inviting Gen. Scott to land, which he did. | Gen. Scott said—“Ci'.hx-ns of Manchester, I am j not travelling about making speeches, nor for po litical purposes, but as a citizen of our common | country, employed as I Lave ever been actively in , her service. But when my heart is touched, my lips refuse to remain silent. The banner spread : before my eyes calls up memories which always as- I feet me ; and scenes which I know many of you yourselves have witnessed, and events in which you have borne honorable part. My time is brief; but from my heart I thank you ; for the kind welcome you have given a traveller, ; and an old sold soldeir, who has spent many i years in the service of his country. An old man, 95 years of age, w ho whs one of the earliest settlers, in that section of Ohio, was here ; introduced to Gen. Scott, He said: “General, 1 hope God will spare rny life long enough—for the I last vote I shall 'ever- cast—to assist to p ace the hero of his country in the highest office she lias to bestow." The General appeared much affected at the en -1 thusiasm of the old veteran. At about half past eight o’clock he reached Maysviile, where, the demonstrations of welcome were very heavy. Fires were lighted at a dozen ■ different points, and all the hotels and buildings along the banks of the river were briilianllv illu- giving a magnificent effect to the whole scene. Several bands of music, and numerous cannon were placed along the heights, and as the boats neared the ehoros the sweet strains of music and roar of the cannon gave notice of the h ero’s ap proach. Several thousand persons tiir nged t< « the , landing, compelling the cortege to force its wav through to the hot J. Governor Metcalf, of Kentucky, and Gen. Mor gan, with the delegation, came on hoard and re ceived Gen. Scott from the Portsmouth delegation. The General, addressing a few words of thanks to his Ohio friends, took leave of them, and then pro ceeded to land with the Kentucky delegation.— i Immediately on reaching the shore, the eonege was met by the Hon. W. H. Wad-worth, of Mysville, President o- the City Council, who spoke as fol lows : “Our people meet you at the threshold of the State to open the door of all Kentuckians and bid y«u a cordial welcome. The people of our lit tle city generally are especially gratified and honor ed by this visit, and welcome you w ith ail their hearts.,We must not, however, exult ourselves too highly by reason of this unexpected honor. Gen eral, since it is not voluntry, but enforced —made • in the line of a duty specially imposed. But no thing can disturb the great happiness of beholding amongst us, and thanking profoundly so long tried, . f»o wen tried, so distinguished a public .servant and . benefactor, both in j e ice and war. We can only thank you, General. Devotion to ( the country, like yours can never he repaid. Do not think Kentucky believes your patriotic arid arduous services have been overpaid—can ever he paid. The lives of her beat sons, as well before as since the fatal ha’ tie whose sconce y on are are about i visiting, have been sacrificed too m-ely to permit us to weigh the blood of our defenders with gold. We do not receive you as a stranger. General. You are known to every one of us. The old have grate ful remembrances of you, and the young find your name in every page of their country’s history . We do not come to praise you ; but to*testify our gra titude for faithful public services, and graify'onr longing eyes to behold the c itizens who has made his country renowned and respected throughout the world. Mr. Wadsworth closed lib remarks by referring to the object of Gen. Scott's visit, enlarging upon his kindness to the soldiers under his command and tendering him a warm welcome to the hearts and homes of Kentuckians. Gen. Scott in reply returned his grateful thanks for the imposing demonstrations of welcome w ith which they had honored him, and expressed him self overpowered by the enthusiastic greeting of the citizens of Maysville, who had extended to him a true Kentucky welcome. He paid a high compli ment to Kentucky and her heroes, and alluded rao.-t feelingly to the gallant Clay. He said lie did not come among them as a poli tician, seeking political preferment, but ns an old soldier engaged in the discharge of a special duty, imposed upon him by the councils of the nation. Whatever service he had rendered his country, were rendered for the love he bore her. The honor and glory of the Union had ever been dear to him, and his highest ambition was to attain a place in the hearts of his country men. At the conclusion of his brief but appropriate address, he was greeted with the most enthusiastic applause, and escorted to bis hotel, where lie was called out and obliged to make another short address, lie then returned to his apartments, but a boat arriving Irom Ripley, Ohio, with 250 passengers, ho was again caked out and made a brief speech, in wbicu * c raid an elo quent tribute to the memory ot . lay. Gen. Brown, aner whom Brown county, in which K’piey is situ а, is called. Ho also eulogized Generals Ripley and Havner, and concluded by thanking the depu tation for their invitation to attend a Whig meet ing in Ripley, but declined on the ground that he had made it a rule to attend no partisan meetings. During the evening he was introduced to the widow of Gcu. Hayner. It is estimated that about б, people were present. At uoou to-day, Gen. Scott and Maj. Lawson left privately for Blue Lick Springs,to meet Gen. Wool, and will remain there till Tuesday. They will then go to the Agricultural Fair at Paris. Thence they will go to Lexington, Louisville, Cin cinnati, and through Ohio to Sandusky, and tq Naw York byway of the Labes and Buffalo*
