(fcj-The steam-ship Falcon, Lt. Hartsteinb,
bound for Cbsgres, left New-York Monday at'
o’clock, P. M., and touched at this port yesterday
morning at 6 o'clock, when she received the mails
from this place for the Pacific. The F. expert
enced severe weather on her passage hither from
New-York.
We are indebted to the polite attention of Lieut.
Hartsteinb, and Mr. Davis, 8tore-keeper of the
Falcon, for late Nsw-York papers.
Savannah Enterprise—The Charleston Cou
rier of Thursday says: "This afternoon, at half-
put 4 o'clock, a uew steam boat, will be lauucbed
from the Ship Yard of Mr. Wm. Bird, the build
er. This boat, we learn, is intended for tho navi
gallon of the Santeo and Watetee rivers, and will
bo capable of carrying from 13 to 1100 bales
cotton. Sbo will havo two engines, on the high
preeaure principle, of 80 horse power each, con
structed by Messrs. Miller & Cubit, of Savan
nah, Ga.
"This boat, entirely the production of Southern
Mechanics, will be commanded by Captain Wm.
M. Lubbock, formerly of tho steamer De Kalb.
Return op Rev, the Abducted Spaniard.
The brig Saloadora has arrived at New Orleans,
(says a dispatch to the Charleston Cburier of the
23th ult.,) eight days from Havana, having on
board at a paitengcr, Rev the abducted Spaniard.
Rev, we are informed, was given up by the
Captain-General, without any formal demand
having been made for him. He was sent home by
the American Consul.
Since hla arrival, he has given lelttmony that
he was abducted. It baa been ordered that be
should give bail to appear at the trial of the Span
ish Consul. '
Mail Detentions.—The Baltimore American
of Monday states that the detention of the great
. Eastern mall which occurred of nearly five boors
tho day before, was caused by the breaking down
of the express car when about eight tnilcs west of
Havre-de-Grace. Several passenger cars were
demolikbed, but we are pleased to state, no per
sonal Injury waji sustained.
Lou op Lire.—In firing a salute from tbe U.
S. steamer Michigan on the 27lb ult. at Erie, Pa.,
in honor of tbe President, one of the guns ex
ploded, killing one man, blowing three others
overboard, and mortally wounding another.
Destructive OvExrtow.—Tbe Red River Re
publican of the 21st lost., (says the Charleston
Courier,) gives tho particulars of a late terrible
overflow Id that vicinity, and estimates the dam
ages at five millions of dollars. That paper states
that not over 30,000 bales of Cotton will bo made
in a section of country where 130,000 were pro
duced last year.
Much apprehension has been excited by tbe ap
pearance of the Cotton worm in many parts of
IsmUiana.
Health or New OsleaNS.—There is not now
tho nlighcst apprehensions ns to the appearance of
an epidemic, and the city is eminently hcalthly.
The deaths lut week amounted to 103, of which
only two were by yellow fever, and none by
cholera.
Great Hunoabian Meeting.—A large Hun
garian meeting was held in the Park Monday
afternoon. About 20,000 persons were present.
Several stands were erected, from all of which rc
solutions of sympathy were read. There waa
much enthusiasm on the occasion.
The London papers announce the death,
on tho 30tb of July, of Jacob Perkins, Esq., for
merly of Boston, but for many years residing
and established In London, tho "inventor of‘en
graving on aleel and of tho method of transfer
ring engravings on steel plates," in his 83d year.
That Secbbt Expedition.—A New York cor
respondent of tho Wuhington Republic, allu
ding to tho Cuba scheme, nays ’.—"From all that I
can learn—and I have taken pains to Inform my
self on tho subject—thla armed expedition to
Cuba will not now take place.”
Yellow Fever at Havana.—Tbe Gacctasays
that during the month of July, 1306 cases of yel
low fever were reported for the city of Havana. Of
these 773 were In llio hospitals and maitont de
tunic, and 633 in private practice. Of tho former
•11 died; of tho latter .70; making tho mortality
6.11 per cent. In July, 1846, a year in which the
fever was considered very bad, there were
case", and 45 deaths, making a mortality of 4.69
percent. The number of coses this year Is re
markable, but the mortality is not extraordinary.
TheStatb Penitentiary.—The editor of the
Federal Union, the organ of Gov. Towns, comos
down upon us like "a thousand of brick” for in
timating that the affairs of the Penitentiary havo
been grossly mismanaged. That he should write
feelingly waa to be expectod, for ho is paid
$1,600 a year by tbe Governor for allowing him
self to he called the Director or the old Central
Bank, and fot defending the administration of
his patron. Though ho winces greatly when his
pocket nerve is touched, he takes care not to con-
ttovert a solitary position taken by ouraelvea.
We made extracts from tho Repot t of the Com
mittee appointed by Gov. Towns to examine into
the condition of the institution, a majority of
whom are Democrats, and from these extracts we
drew the inference, that the people qf Georgia
toould have to be taxed to pay the expeneee qf the
Penitentiary The Federal Union does not deny
that taxation will have to be resorted to. It docs
not deny that such is the irreaistablo conclusion
arrived at from this boasted Report. U simply
attempts to raise such a " noise and confusion’’
ovet the question as distracted Mr. Cabs* atten
tion on a certain memorable occasion, without
vouchsafing one word in denial or in explanation
of the "darknees" with which tho Commitce said
the " financial condition" of the institution waa
surrounded. 8uch a feint by way of defence may
suit the tastes of the truth-loving editor, with
_ 1,600 ginglingin his pocket, but the people will
require something more specific.
But tliere is another Richmond iu the field.
Mr Williamson, the Principal Keeper of the
Penitentiary, has eutered the political arena. He
could not find enough to attend to in his position
of Principal Keeper—he could not wait until the
1st October to make out his regular Report of the
condition of tho institution—but he must neglect
his duties for the purpose of engaging in politics
and defending his patron. Like the editor of the
federal Union, he is paid for it by appointment to
office. But what does Mr. Williamson’s bung
ling and unintelligible communication amount to?
His chief object seems to be nn attack upon Gov.
CaAwroso and Col. Redding's administration of
the Penitentiary. He says:
" If the Penitentiary, under the administration
ol Mr. Crawford, paid its expenses sud cleared
five thousand dollars a year, as alleged in the
Messctiger^ome account of its whereabouts shook I
be rendered by those who mado it and affirmed it;
fot 1 aver, that not a cent of this amount ever
leached my hands, or was received by any other of
ficer of the Institution; saving and excepting the
i uni of about aixty-tw’o dollars paid over by A. B.
tedding, late Inspector, to A. Al. Horton, present
Inspector, January 3d, 1849."
In another place he remarks, "nothing in the
shape of caaA ever reached bis hands." We must
be allowed to aay, with all proper respect, that
the effort of the Principal Keeper to deceive the
people, as disclosed in these extracts, is too appa
rent to be successful. Admitting what ho says to
be true, that no "co«A" was ever turned over to
him by his predecessor, we ask whether there
were not available atttlt placed in hi* hands?—
He admits himself that there were Twenty-fire
thousand dollar! worth qf good notet and accounta
ear to him ! Docs all this amount to no
thing? Though these notes and accounts were
not literally "casA,” they could very easily be
turned into cash. Indeed it waa his duty to have
made such collections on them as tho interests of
the institution required, and his failure to do It
is another instance of mal-administration. Mr.
Crawford was Governor for four years, and ac
cording to Mr. Williamson’* own cstininte, if
$26,000 of available notes were left in his hands,
the Penitentiary not only paid its expenses during
those four years, but cleared $6,260 per annum.
In conclusion we would suggest to tbe Princi
pal Keeper tbe propriety of attending to tho du
ties of bie office and abstaining from politics, and
he may possibly be able to relieve the people of
taxation for ita support.
The California Whio.—The Washington
'icaaya: "Mr James M. Crane, former

mond, Virginia, Is about to leave for California,

From the New• York Courier 4* Enquirer.
What the People Think or Gbk. Tavloe.—
Our readers cannot felt to have remarked the
hearty enthusiasm which has greeted Gen. Tay
lor at every step of the journey which he is now
prosecuting through the Slate of Pennsylvania.—
Nor has his welcome been confined to any party,
still leas to any class, of hi* lelluw-citizcns. Thc
whole population has poured forth to meet him.
The farmer has left bis plough—the artisan his
tools—the manufacturer his shop, and como forth
to take him by the band, and bid him welcome to
their homes and their hearts. No one can mis
take this for mere homage to the office which he
fills. It is too hearty, too spontaneous for that.—
It is a tribute of respect for hi* character, of admi
ration fot his qualities, and of gratitude for the
brilliant service he baa rendered his country.
The great masa of the American people, what
ever may be their party predilections, have,' we
firmly believe, an unwavering confidence in the
integrity of General Taylob. Whatever they
may think of the political principles he repre
sents, they do not doubt for an instant the entire
and perfect honesty of purpose with which he will
administer the affairs of (be high office he holds.
They know, that in the discharge of hi* duties he
will consult, simply and exclusively, tho good of
the people. Ho has no private objects to accom
plish, no schemes of personal ambition to com-
This conviction, which is firmly fixed in
the minds of the great body of Ihe American peo
ple, will ensure for General Taylor, wherever
be rnay go, a welcome warmer and more sincere
than any station, however high, could ever com
inand. The common sense of tbe people tells
them that integrity of character is the quality
most required in any high executive officer—that
without it the most brilliant talents become only
the more dahgerous, and that upon it as Ihe basis
may safely be rested the hopes of the nation for
good government and permanent prosperity.
No President for many years haa had so firm a
hold upon Hie confidence of the people as General
Taylor. His whole life has been spent in the
public service, and ha^^een but one continued
illustration of his single-hearted devotion to tbe
public good. His discharge of the Presidential
duties thus far has been marked by tbe same cau
tious and zealous regard for the welfare of the
people. All his sets have been marked by up
rightness of purpose, and steady devotion to what
be has deemed the best interests of the country.
In passing through Pennsylvania Gen. Taylob
has sought to become acquaintod with the people
and their interests. He is naturally desirous to
understand, so far as possible, from his own per
sonal inspection, the character of that great com
monwealth—to examino her manufactories and
her mines, to sacertain for himself the sources of
her wealth and tbe elements of her prosperity.—
Tbe fact that he has undertaken such an explora
tion, shows that he is by no means unmindful of
the duties of tho Government in regard to those
interests which may need its protecting care.—
The remarks he has made in reply to popular ad
dresses during his journey, indicate clearly en
ough that those interests will receive all the at
tention at bis hands which they may require.
Wc have no doubt that Gen. Taylob will meci,
throughout the extended tour which he designs
to make, a welcome quite as hearty as that which
has greeted him in Pennsylvania. The assaults
of the Washington Union and its affiliated press
es, marked as they hove been by the most infa
mous and unscrupulous scurrility, will only serve
to excite public indignation against their authors,
and to create new enthusiasm on behalf of the
distinguished object of their incessant and un
principled abuse.
