&!• Kossuth and Capt. Long.
House op Riprkskktativeb, Feb. 13,1853.
Gentlemen: 1 herewith send you u copy of n letter
which i hare received from Copt. Long, of the United
States Navy, in reference to his supposed difficulty with
Kossuth off Marseilles.
The President of tho United Btntcs not having yot sent
in the correspondence heretofore called for, and seeing a
continued effort on tho part of tho Kobauth press to refer
16 Capt. Long in terms of censure. 1 deem It duo to that
accomplished officer to havo this letter published. It
contains his vindication, expressed In terms at once
modest and distinct, with n careful effort to avoid throw
ing the least censure upon Kossuth.
The country should rejoice In possessing an officer who
looks with sagacious Intuition Into tho consequences of
threatened events, and determines to avert tho danger
advance. Most respectfully,-&c.

Exktkr, (N. II.) Feb. I, IW8.
Dear Sir: 1 havo received your loiter of the 27th o*
January, Informing me “that you had called for iho oor-
respondence rolstlvo to tho supposed dirtlcultlcs which
occurred on board tho Mississippi, under my command,
with Kossutlq off Marseilles, for iho purpose of a Indlcat-
lng tho dignity of tho navy, and to sustain mo ns com-
Whllo tho circumstances which gnvo occasion to tho
honorablo Intentions tnenlloned In your letter are to me
matter of deep regret, allow me to express to you my
tlianks for your readiness to vindicate the dignity of the
navy as well ns to sustain tho character of an officer
whoso ablest efforts, In Iho dlschargo of his duly, have
mot with unmerited reproach.
It should be remombored by Iho American peoplo Hint,
in tho dlschargo of tho dollcate duty of removing Kossuth
and his companions to this country, 1 could havo been
actuated by no motive but to do It in such n manner ns
would make them happy and myself respectable. To have
treated any of them with rudeness or ucglect would havo
been inhospitable, os they were then on board ship under
my ltntnodioto commaud. It would have been Inhuman,
for they were dejected and sorrowful at tho failure of
, their exertions to give freedom to their nation. They
were exiles without a country, without n home, and had
claims upon the compassion as well as tho respect of
mankind.
Tho prominent charge against me is rudeness to Kos*
with at the time we were off Marseilles. From the first
moment I taw him to the hour of our separation 1 spared
no pains to reader him and his associates happy. When
he first came on board, ho nnd his companions were re
ceived by me and the officers and nicu under iny com
mand with every expression of welcome which language
and cheers could afford. On iny part their welcome was
sincere; ray own aimrtments woro resigned to promote
tholr comfort, and I employed all the incans In my power
to divert their attention from tho gloom which seemed to
have settled on their prospects.
My position at Marseilles was peculiarly perplexing
and responsible: but 1 did not Intend to be, nnd was not,
disrespectful to Kossuth, either In my language or man
ners. My conduct was such that ou a review of it I can
not regret and would not alter It.
In order to form a Just opinion of tho propriety of my
conduct os on officer at Marseilles it Is im|>ortanl to con
sider the strictness of my orders with reference to n com
promise of the American flag; that 1 had been cautioned
again and again by Commodore Morgan and others
whose opinions wero entitled to tho highest respect, of
the Imminent danger of compromising the (tag; that the
French authorities had refused to allow Kossuth to pass
through Franco to England: that he had once landed at
Marseilles, and tluit orders had been Issued by the same
authorities that he should not land again, together with
the excitement which his presence personally among tho
people had occasioned at Marseilles.
In the first place, please to observo the strictness of the
general orders of Commodore Morgan against nil inter
ference with the political affairs of other nations, dated
April 9,1851, from which the following Is an extract:
“To the careful preservation of the good faith of our
country, as plighted In treaty stipulations and the delicate
subject of strict neutrality, I claim your particular atten
tion. You will remember, therefore, that the ship under
your command, when lying In the port, or sailing within
the Jurisdiction of another friendly nation. Is a mere guest,
and for the time more or less under tts protection. As
sured that it Is Iho wish of tho Government of the United
States, It Is roy order that tho utmost circumspection bo
observed, particularly by tho officers and crews of the
vessels composing tho squadron under iny command, at
mil times, when in company, or conversation with the
people of the nations of Europe, that they enter Into no
• political discussions with them, or with each other about
them, or tho state of their respective countries: nnd that
they carefully avoid tho expression of any opinion which
may Justify a surmise that their sympathies are enlisted
in behalf oi; or inclined towards, any particular party or
nation. It is tho determination of the Government to
preserve our neutrality strictly, and thereby to secure the
friendship and continued confidence of all. Any devia
tion from the foregoing order in relation to this subject,
will hardly, under any circumstances, admit of on ex
cuse.”
In addition to tho nbovo general orders, please to ob
serve the specific orders from Commodore Morgan totno
of the 24th September, 1851. In these orders you wilt
find that many doubts arc entertained by him'whether
Kossuth woule bo allowed to land In France: an exprcs-
alou of regret that Kossuth had determined to land at
Marseilles; an apprehension lest I should encounter
many vexations and Inconveniences; and then enjoins
on me “tho most exact observance in every jwirticular”
or tho instructions already given me In general orders
with reference to the careful preservation of strict neu
trality, without which the most serious compromise of
tno character of our country la ulmost Inevitable.
I next received a letter from the American Consul at
Marseilles, John L. Hodge, Esq., September 3d, 1851.
In tills letter he says that ho received on official letter
from the “Prefect,” requesting him to call on him on
business or Importance. In compliance with this re
quest, he called. The “Prefect” torn him that the letter
addressed to him as tho representative of the United
States was published in a paper culled “LaJjuuple,” a
violent partisan paper, and asked by whom n had been
done, as he viewed It a breach of confidence. Mr.
Hodge stated ho let Kossuth have the teller, und that It
was published by him. The “Prefect” then gave orders
that no one but tho officers and men of the Mississippi
should land, and Mr. Hodge wrote to me ns follows:
“You will In tho most positive manner carry out the
views of tho ‘Project;’ prohibit every Individual except
your men lauding from the United States steamer Missis
sippi, no matter who may be tho jierson."
The consequence of the publication of that letter, and
the comments upon it in the paper of “La People,” was
the Imprisonment of the editor of the paper, und the
suspension of all issues from that press. A further con-
■equenco was great and verj' unusual excitement among
the people.
Had I no reason, sir, to apprehend, In view of the cir
cumstances, a compromise of our Hag* Tho populace
of Marseilles manifested so much excitement whllo Kos
suth and his associates were on shore that the “Prefect,”
through our Consul, informed mo that such demonstra
tions must cease. He also withdrew the permission he
had granted, through the intercession of CoL Hodge, for ,
Kossuth nnd his associates to laud at pleasure. Ho fur
ther ordered that no one of them should In future be al
lowed to land who had not passports signed by u French
Minister, or “vised” by a French Consul.
On tho afternoon of the same day the ship was sur
rounded by a multitude of boats, filled with |>cople in
tensely excited, calling for Kossuth, singing the Marseilles
hymn and other revolutionary sunn, accompanied by
that well-known dap of the hunds which Is employed by
the French people In times of grout excitement; at
the same lime multitudes were collected, and wero still
gathering on the shores und mole heads und drums In
the city were beating. It was in this state of ugltatlon
among the people, that 1 remarked to Kossuth that if he
would retire from the poop-deck perhaps the people
would disperse, for 1 feared a compromise of the nag.
He compiled with this request, but soon returned, and
Bald, “I hope I will meet a generous welcome from
your people also, and I am sure you would not havo
me repulse It; I am in the same position here.” 1 re
plied, of course I would not, but this was a different case.
He made a short nddress to tho people, nnd then ho
and bis associates left the deck; and In about half an hour
after this period the boats moved off slowly in the dusk
of the evening. If I was rude to him. my rudeness con-
slated in the above expressions. It is fur this that 1 have

There was strong ground for apprehension on my part,
for 1 had been repeatedly warned of tho danger of a com
promise of the flag. 1 find received express orders iu no
way to Interfere with the politics of foreign nations, nor
Buffer it to bo done by the officers or men under iny com
mand. Kossuth, though u foreigner, was under the pro-
tectlon of the American flag, by virtue of a resolve of
Congress.
He had had permission, through the Intercession of Mr.
Hodge, the American Consul, to go on shore with bis
companions. Events hnd transpired of such a character
that tho people of Marseilles Had become intensely ex
cited. I hnd received orders not to ullow uny person,
whoever that person might be. to leave the ship but the
officers nnd men of the Mississippi. Should these circum
stances and warnings have been disregarded by me, would
they be overlooked by any man having the least degree
of prudence, when tho peace of two nations was in Jeo
pardy V I hod no right to suppose that the French gov-
vernmont would prohibit Kossuth from landing at Mar
seilles on account of the excitement his presence caused
among the people, and that nt the same time they would
bo tame euough to allow him to address them in Uieir
own port, under tho protection of the American flag, and
from the deck ol an American frigate.
Suppose there had been, In reality, no danger of com
promising the flag: If I hnd reason to apprehend danger
or a compromise, It was iny duty to speak. The lip or an
officer should not bo scaled In silence till the flug Is com
promised. It Is his duty to anticipate and prevent the
evil, rather than pause till mlschler is complete; then at
tempt a remedy. Regarding It ns my duty to Interfere, I
knew of no language inure subdued and gentle.
At tho time I employed the above language Kossuth
mentioned that I had charged him with huving compro
mised the flag. I told him at once that ho misunderstood
mo; that I did not say he had compromised the flag, but
there wna danger of It. Hero I supposed there was an
end of all dlssatlsfiictlon on his part, until I wus inform
ed some days uflerwnrds, while on our passage to Gibral
tar, that Kossuth was dissatisfied at tho remarks I have
referred to. 1 immediately called on him with n view to
put a period to all dissatisfaction. lie appeared to lw ex
cited, still entertaining tho Impression that I hud ordered
him from the deck, and charged him with compromising
tho flag. 1 disavowed it most explicitly, nnd, uftcr some
conversation, rcud to him front my general cruising in
structions that—• ”- L • • •

with my explanation. Ho requested a copy or a part of
Consul Hodge’s letter which I had read to him some days
before, and mentioned that ho should like to havo me an
nex my nseuranco that ho had not compromised the flag
wbtle ou board tho ship; to which I cheerfully assented.
From thlfc period friendly relations existed between us.
We visited tno Governor of Gibraltar nnd American Con
sul, nnd partook or their hospitalities together.
I respectfully refer you to Kossuth’s lust letter at Gib
raltar, dated 13th October last, in which ho rets forth his
reasons for leaving tho ship, and expresses in slrong lan
guage his personal regard Ibr myself und the officers und
crew of the ship.
Claiming little skill, sir, in Iho arrangement and combi

Forsyth Place.—The work of puttiug up tho Iron
fence and preparing Forsyth Place for a pleasant resort,
Is, we are glad to say, progressing very satisfactorily.
The fence around three sides of it will be up by the end
of the present week, nnd the remainder will be finished
soon. The ground in the incloaure is to bo graded and
made to correspond with the level of the streets; and,
with that view, the granite blocks into which the fence-
posts are let, have been made to approximate, as near
possible, to an absolute level.
We ore Indebted to a friend for the following sugges
tions, which we submit for the benefit of the reader:
There should bo two principal promenades—one In
the direction of Bull-street, nnd tho other at right angles
to It. In addition to these, there should be two others of
less width, running diagonally from tho four corners of
the Pluce and crossing each other at the place of Inter
section of the principal promenades; nlso a wldo prom-
nude extending all round the enclosure Just Inside the
fence. Posts should be placed on tho outside for the
protection of the railing; also a few shade trees. A
circle at the centre of the Pork, at the pluce of intersec
tion of the various promenade*, would add to it* beauty
und convenience. It would be a good site for a monu
ment—the one to Pulaski or Greene—or fora fountain,
when the water works ore erected. As there Is a sewer
near by suitable to drain the waste water, the fountain
would probably be belter. It would impart a grateful
freshuess to the atmosphere in the summer, and would
not, he thinks, produce many mosquitoes. Heats should be
placed at proper distances along tho principal promen
ades, nnd tho walks made hard and rolled once a week,
or ofiener, If required.
Tho pines now standlhg, It strikes him, should be re
moved entirely, or nearly so, ns the dropping of the leaves
in the winter will render it next to Impossible to keep the
Park In a cleanly and proper condition. Mischievous
boys may set those I cures on fire, and thereby do much
injury to the trees and such shrubbery os may bo plant
ed. It would be on easy matter to replace the pines by
more sightly trees. It would be well also, if one section
or square were planted with grass, for small children to
play on, and swings and other gymnastic helps erected
for their exercise. Caro should be takeu to prevent the
occummulallon of water any where In the Park; and to
do this, It should tx> graded from the centre, running In all
directions outward. On the outside, there should be &
pavement, extending entirely around the fence. A lump
should be placed at each comer, and at equal distances
between ; nnd also ulong the promenades.
A great mistake occurred In not placing small gates
the sides of t he main entrances. As il Is, promenaders
have to go to the comers where there are foot
get In and out. Vehicles ought not to be allowed to go In
oiler the fence Is put up. The Park is designed ns a place
lo walk and sit In, nnd not to ride. Moreover, if a horse
should become frightened and run away with a carriage,
ladies and children would be In great danger, as the In-
closure would prevent the horse from getting out.
Athknjeum.— 1 The performance of Miss Julia Dean
thus fur has given very general satisfaction. With the
exception or Charlotte Cushman, wo have had no
actress here for some years pnst who equalled her. Her
conception of tho characters she takes may or may not
be correct, but whatever tliat conception Is, Mho plays It
out to Uic life. In her ucting, she makes many brilliant
points, and her declamation is alwuys good, neither too
pusslonato nor too tame. We do not like tho play of
Jtomcoand Juliet, yet wo thought her acting in the scono
In which Juliet endeavors to obtain from tho nurse tho
message sent by Romeo, was excellent, and tho best we
have thus fur witnessed. In addition to these excellences,
Miss Dean possesses a rich, musical voice. If we except
her attitudes—which ore not always natural, and con
sequently not always graceful—Mho may bo set down as
ono of the best actresses now on the boards In this countrj’.
Miss Dean is well supported by Messrs. Crocker,
Allen, Uarbt nnd Ellsler. To Mr. Crocker Is very
properly assigned the principal mole characters, and to
Mr. Allen the more versatile and facetious. Tho latter’s
conception of tho part of .Mereutio wns equalled only by
his acting. Mr. Crocker alwuys stems to bo In earnest,
hut if ho would actually be ho, his personations would ho
more complete. In the lighter pieces, JxrrEKHON Is In
imitable, und Sirs. Jefferson Is always equal to her
part. We should like to soo them In tho Rough Dia
mond, the play in which Mrs. J. appeared to such ad
vantage the pnst season, when Hlr William Don played
tho part of my_Cotui* Joe.

This being 81. Valentino’s day, there is alltUo more than

been reported to tho Senate, qulto os stringent In its es
sential provisions as that which Is now the law In Maine,
letters from Albany to-day state that there Is no probabil
ity that II w ill secure tho necessary majority. An ordi

impossible lo enforce it here. And a law that Is unoxe-

also that tho Captain agreed to give up demurrage, and

whether tho safety or tho ship required her to bo an

Hungarian exiles. It puts to (light a whole host of sur
mises and pretended statements, that have been circu
lated to tho discredit of Capt. Lono, and the Infinite
glorification of Kossuth. It Is further and especially
interesting as giving u simple and, we doubt not, truthful

that General Martin, Senator from Assumption, hns in
troduced Into tho Legislature of Louisiana a bill Interdict
ing habitual drunkards. It proposes to place habitual
drunkards in the sumo position, In regard lo tbo manage
ment of their property nnd family uffalrs, as that which
the taw assigns to lunatics and minors. They are lo havo
curators, with powers of administration; they aro to be
lu&ipable of suing or being sued In their own name; they
could not be members of a corporation, nor executors or
administrators of on estate. Such would be the legal ef
fects of interdiction.
[COMMUNIOATRU.] 1
. Messrs. Editors:—I observo that the Stockholders In
the Ogochce Hank Road Company aro nbout to call upon
iho city to subscribe $5,000 to tho stock of that Company.
Charity begins at home, and I hope they will mend nnd
sweep and raise out-of tho dust, tho ono they already
possess within tho city limits, betero they go beyond
them. Il Is a llttio strange too, that a Company mado up
of such wealthy and spirited Individuals should ask help
from tho city. There are rich land-holders enough along
tho lino of tho OgochooUoadto pay for tho cost of a Plank
Rond ter tholr own convenience, nnd for tho enhance
ment of their own property. Giles 4c Bradley lost year
built a mile of plank road, and a bridge besides, ter tholr
own Interest ’and convenience, nnd I should think tho
lauded proprietors or the Ogcchco could do In proportion
without calling on the public nt ufi. Let Counoll lay down
more plank roads In the city ter tho convenleuco of our
Increasing trade, rather than go out of town to seek ter
Investments. If they cannot give us a plank road through
South nnd East Broad-streets, nnd through Drayton, then
let them keep tholr money ter \\ ator Works and give
them to us soon. 1HUNDERBOLT.
National Wihu Convention.— 1 The Now York Tri
bune Is opposed to the assembling of a Whig National
Convention. It says:
“Wo do not believe (hero need bo any 1\ hlg Nntlonnl
Convention held; wo believe any one which may l>o held
will bo productive of mischief alone. All the States which
nro likely to go Whig ut nil—Including Kentucky aud
Tennessee—wHl-nomlnato Winfield Scott by State Con
ventions, If necessary, aud choose Electors to vote for
him. And lio matter how Iho Delegatus to a Whig Na
tional Convention may be chosen, ft will nominate Gen.
Hcolt for President. Hucli a convention may do sundry
foolish niul mischievous things—things calcinated to em
barrass tho party In the pending canvass aud reduce Gen.
Hcott’a majority—but no convention can bo got togothor
or which a majority will vote lo run the ship on tho
rocks when they might just a* well carry her gulliuilly
Into port with tho signal of triumph streaming ut tlio
mast-head.”

Hi* Excellency, Daniel Webster, Secretary of State.
United States, Washington :
Dear Old Bor—You will bo saniriscd, I doubt not,
on receiving a letter from an old friend, and ono whom
you have so often befriended, from this place; but, ns
the old lady said when she cracked her tea-pot, what’s
did Is did, mid what is the use or kicking up such it deuced
fuss generally about It ? When, In September lust year, I
partook of your chowder, in Marshfield, I little anticipated
that I should bo placed to-day in my present position.—
Hut ’tis ail destiny. Who can tell to-day whnt is going
to befall him to-morrow? Hud I taken your advice
nnd accepted the mission to tho ilurbnry States, things
would havo been better. I, nt least, would not lie so bar
barously treated as I am in this prison, where they have
not lefl tho first sign on my head or Jitce of hair or whis
kers. Concha, I am inclined lo think, Is, on the whole, a
good fellow, and I think If you wero to whisper a word to
tho Spanish Minister In Washington, Calderon do la Barca, Plies, W
In my Ihvor, there may be stiU hopes of niy release. Re- dnntly pi
metnbering me to our mutual friend, Hon.C. M. Conrad,
Hecrctary of War, Yours, as ever, J. A. Kelly.
Great Hunt in Florida.
Tlio Jacksonville Nrtes says:—“Tho party of gentle
men from Camden county, Ga n who wont up tho river ou
u “limit,” nbout ten days ago,—consisting or Major D.
Bnlley, Win. Ilallcy, Dr. Barnard, B. H. Gnwcn, A. Du-
four, D. L. Clinch snd F. Clark, havo sent a full account
of their glorious success. Wo make tlio following ex
tract:
“Having had unusual good luck In our hunt, I take
6 tonsure In coiniuuiilcatiug lo you tho glorious result.—
6 parly of hunters have ever been so successful ns iho
huutera from Old Cuinden. Our party—composed of
eight—encamped on the llnw Creeks, and in six days*
hunting destroyed 48 l)cer, 57 Turkeys, 1 monster Pan
ther, and 5 Wild Cuttle. Dr. Bnninrd well deserves tho
nntno of the ftunous Crocket, having killed n Bear and
captured two others, luuardlng Ids own life lu tlio un
dertaking. Snrgeunt Gowcn killed 3 Alligators, 1 measu
ring eighteen feet four inches; ho was a monster. Tho
credit of killing tho Panther Is given to myself.—
A portion of our party returned much sooner than wo
expected, cwlng to tho mta/les, which made its appear
ance lu cnsip. No doubt If wo hnd nil remained, wo
would hate Rilled a much lorg’r number. Wo bad tho
pleasure of passing our friend W. Bailey through tho or
deal of splnkliug with blood, having killed his first deer.
Ibcllovo I have given you all tho particulars, nnd in
conclusion would sav, that If you should ever embark In
a hunt of taekluil, 1 would suggest tho Haw Creeks, ns
tho best hulling ground—nbout 35 miles from Pulutkn,
on tho Eas. sldo of tho river. Hnd It not been for tho
measles, I leully believo wo would linvo killed one hun
dred deer. 1 never saw tho llko of game In any country.”
Leap YeiR Party.—Tlio young ladles of MiUodgcvillo
and its vlclilty, availing themselves of tho privileges of
the sex duriig I-cup Your, gave a purty on 8t. Valentine's
Eve (tho 13th instunt) which was alike creditable to lltelr
spirit nnd good taste.
Tho Representative Hall hnvliig been cleared of its
clinlrs und desks, wus handsomely lighted nnd decorated
with evergreens; nnd tlio merry dauco reigned, where a
short time before, grave affairs of State wero settled by
tho matter cf foct Representatives of tho peoplo. Tho
Senate Chamber wns appropriated to the edibles, which
were of a q mllty to excite tho allmcnltvcness or an as
cetic. If, ai somo shrewd feminine observer has said,
mail’s nffectious may bo gained through tho medium of
tho stoinncl sooner than bv nny other means, great must
havo been iho execution done among tho hearts of tho
gentleman on that occasion.
Whether tho young ladles exercised tho Important
prlvllego cf "popping tho question,” inny«doubtfess bo
known by a future reference to our Hymcnlal depart
ment; it bring understood that nny unusual increaso In
our nnuoineements of that character, will Indicate that
they did, m It Is not to bo supposed that nny gentleman
with a hea*t in his bosom, could do otherwise than refer
the fair questioner to his Pa, iu such trying circumstances.

Keepin* Up a Quaint Old Custom.—Tho Boston
Commonwealth says:
Accordlig to nil Immemorial custom, tho youngest
member o| the Massachusetts Senate presents to tho oldest
u broud-br.inmed hot and stuff, with an appropriate
speech. This year it falls to Asnon Burllnghmn to make
the presentation, nnd to Myron Lawreuco to receive the
nforesnld symbols of veneration. The sccno will be
unctuously dramatic, nnd tlio hut necessarily qulto ex
tensive and Bloomerish.
Boardino House Soap.—And first of the soap—(says
The Month)—ofthnt little inconvenient latherlesa cube of
Indurated composition which Is a part und parcel of Iho
boarding system. Whnt ts It ? Where Is ft bought V—
How is ft made? What is supposed to bo Its use? Is it
really soap, or cheese, or wax. or clmlk, or gutta pcrcha,
or cement, or all these combined? If you try to wash
with it In cold water, you might as well use a square of
Ivory—If you put in warm, utter a time u film collects
about It, ns we havo seen nbout n dead perch lu tho well
of a punt; but you will get no lather. And If, lu your
desperation, you try lo rub It hard on your conrsc sfnglo
towel, Its nipped up comerless form offers no hold; nnd
slippery, without being sajionaccous, at lost it darts out of
your hands like a bullet, Into a corner of tho room,where
you had better let It He, and purchase somo brown Wind
sor on your own account.
Public Baths nno Wash Houses.—In London, Liver
pool nnd other towns in England, these convenient es
tablishments for tho use nnd accommodation of tho poorer
classes, havo been erected. They Imvo proved protltablo
us Investments, und have been or great benefit. From the
report of the Committee, we ascertain that tho number of
Bathers at five ■•Atobllsliments In London, wus 047,242,
from whom were received £0,141 86—which is not quite
seven cents to each bather.
“ Rang inc If I don’t believe tho world’s a wheel bar-
row,” said u Jolly inebriate, as lie rolled along the pave
ment, “and Fin liio wheel rewolving on tho haxls. Now

gutter, “and now I’m on dry land,” ns lie fetched up ou
tho curb stone. Ills concluding remurk, us his boots fol
lowed his head down an open cellar way, was, “now tho
wheel Is broken and tho wehiclo is out of repair.”

Poe In the Celestial Sphere.
Some of tho “ Spirit Knockers ” having pretended to a
communication with Edgar A. Poe, in the Celestial Sphere,
and also to havo learned that Tom Paine, Ethan Allen,
wore staying nt n Porter House in Paradise, kept by John
Hunyun, wo have Induced a friend, of spare, corporeal
body, to diet on tlio shadow of cabbago until ho was capa
ble of the magnetic state, when he pussed Into n trance,
nnd got for us tho following, supposed, from Its trutAful-
ness, to coino from Poo :—
If those vulgar nftmdanc tapper*,
Allas modern spirit rappers,
Or their kin, mugnetic imppers,
Chaucu to spenk of me and mine;
Tull ’em 1 am where no vision—
Though ’twero deml-Puradisinn— ,
Cun iinpierco tho bright Klyslun,
Where my kindred spirits shine.
Tell ’em they are arrant liars
Full or foul und black desires,
Only fit for Satan's fires,
Whence their wanton orgies spring;
That, though Paine nnd Ethun Allen
Hud no care for higher callin’
Than to hall ut any dwellin’
For the sake ofirpp/e-Ing.
They would scorn, by oven proxies,
To converso with vulgar doxies
Llko tho Fishes nnd tno Foxes,
And tho asses in their train.
That truospirits speak with trumpets,
Not through liars, fools and strumpets,
And their too and finger tliump-its,
Which uro Sutnn’s own, refrain.
In my life I scorned such cattle,
And from my celestial battle,
They must call with other rattle,
Ere they bring mo down lo earth.
Thoy havo Moses for a prophet,
And his teaching—lr they scoff it,
They have Christ’s Indorsement oflL—
Tis enough—If aught has worth?

TO TIIE PUBLIC.
When I was llrst elected to the offico of City Surveyor,
I was frequently solicited to direct my attention to tho
compiling of on accurate map of tho City of Savannah.
Influenced by a desire to servo the public, I promised to
do so, as soon.as I hail acquired such Information as
would enable mo to accomplish It. Contrary to tho
advice of a friend, who hod some experience in a simi
lar enterprise, I devoted myself Industriously for many
month* In making surveys ter this object. In an evil
hour I yielded to tho importunities of Vincent, who
proffered to draw the map for me upon tho solo consider
ation of being allowed to pat hi* numo toll as draftsman,
urging that It would bring him prominently betero tho
public In that vocation, nnd would bo for him n perpetu
al advertisement. Foolishly confiding In his honesty, I
furnished him with documents from ray office, and inado
personal surveys, until I fonnd ho was nbout to dcceivo
me, when I withhold Important plans, necessary to com
plete tho map. lie has subsequently most grossly be
trayed me, by offering to publish my map, in its Imper
fect stale. Thin community know me too well to render
it necessary for me to defend my character from Iho Im
pertinence of so baso a man.
1 now unnounco that a map Is in ’progress of drafting,
which shall not be published until ll Is proved to be
correct by competent Judges.
