Chanticleer, a Thanksgiving Story of the Peabody
Family. Boston-. Mc-sey a Co.
It is many a day since we ha7e enjoyed so rich a
treat as tlrnt afforded us by tho perusal of this do
lightful little hook. If we had never known how to
appreciate a good old fashioned New England Thnnks-
giviun, which is with all well regulated Yankee fam
ilies what. Chrlstmuu is with us—tho great family fes
tival of the year—the experiences of tile Peabody Fain
ily would have given us an inkling of its philosophy,
and a relish for its roast turkeys and puddings, to sny
nothing of Its -‘pumkin pies" and other "flower doing,”
inseparable from such occasions. But the story,
which is suggested by a Thanksgiving family meeting,
hns higher claims than tboseof a more chrou iclo of
a family festival,—it possesses literary meritsof tho
highest order, and will live in thu affections of all
renders of good taste and good morals, not only while
thnnksgiving dinners are remembered, but while go.
nius is appreciated. We find to our hand, in llieNew
York Post thefollowing sketchofthe book, which so
fully expresses our own views, that wo adopt and on ■
dorse it. The reviewer says :—
"Patriarchal and primitive Sylvester Peabody,
gathers together to his country home, for the festi
val of Thanksgiving, his scattered family. They
come even to the third and fourth generation; the
thriving merchant from the city, blind to all but the
raain-chance, the noiBy, good-natured sei, captain, the
fashionable widow and her town bred son, an exqui
site, wilhafortuno in expectation, ond an Ohio settler
and hia wife, in all the freshness of western churuc.
ter. At home, living with the patriarch, there are,
to complete tho group, a widowed mother,an orphan
girl, a dependent ofthe family, and a grotesquene
groserving woman. There is one missing, absent,
from a dark suspicion, resting upon his character,
hut present in tho enduring affection of the widow
ed mother, and in tho never-doubting love of the
orphan maid.
"The story, which is hardly a story, but rather a
harmonious, combined series of pictures,depends,for
its plot, upon the assurance of the country minister,
who was lust seen in the company of old Sylvester
Peabody's grand-son, the son ot the widowed moth
er; hence the suspicion, hence the flight; and lastly
the re-appearance of the two, tho supposed victim
and the suspected murderer, to clear up the miatery
aud to crown the Thanksgiving festival.
"These are very slight materials for a story, and
do not call for uny exhibition of high-wrought scenes
or intense displays of pass.ona; but these materials
simple as they are, are skilfully worked by tho author,
Into a charming picture of life and character. Wo are
at once introduced into the family group, and see
at a single glauce, their several peculiarities, grow
ing out of difference of life, character and reality-—
The festive ..cession, and the kind feelings it sug
gests, take hold of our hearts ; we are merry with
the jovial sea captain and the laughing children, und
in turn gently 6ad with the widowed mother und the
loving Miriam. Allthesucial and religious charac
teristics of the season ot Thauksgiving are brought
out with a fancy, geniul, humorous and reverential.—
There is the first meeting, natural and expressive,
with its mutual confidence of hopes and fears ; the
Thanksgiving sermon, simple und full of wholesome
charity, and the dinuer, the ehief feature of Thanks
giving time, heartily disposed of, amid the flow of
abundance and good feeling. * * * »
" This Thanksgiving story, however, makes a
pleasing little work, is thoroughly national in its con
ception, and in sentiment patriotic, social, and reli
gious."
Wo design to read Sylvester Peabody’s Thanksgiv
ing Sermon to our little congregation on Chriatmus
morning, whethpr we ha-, e a Christmas Turkey tor
dinner on that day or not.

^^entlemmriliT Kirknldn,
Scotland, has trained a couple of mice and invented
machinery enabling them to spin cotton yarn. They
havo been employed about twelvemonths. Tltcwork
is dona on the tread mill principle. It is so construe
ted that the common house mouse is enabled to
make atonement to society for past offences, by twist
ing, twining and reeling from one hundred to one
hundred and twenty-six threads per day. To com
plete this the little pedestrian hns to run ten and a
half mile*. A halfpenny's worth of oatmeal at 15d per
prek. serves one of these tread wheel culpritB for the
long period of five weeks. In that time it makes one
hundred and ten threads per day. At this rate a
mouse ears 9d overy five weeks, which is 7s. 5d. per
annum. Take 6d offfor board, and Is for machine
ry, there will arise 6s clear profit from each mouse

HAVANA, DEC. 7,1850.
W. T. Thompson, Esq.:—
Dear Sir:—We hand you, as usual, a copy of our
printed report, to which we beg to add s few words.
There seems to bo every prospect of prices tor
new Sugars opening high, ss a contract hns already
Seen made for Spain at 7}—11} rials for delivery by
March, which, considering the extra price nominal
ly paid for tlie Whites, makes that for the Yellows
equiva ent to about 8} rials.
There are plenty of Spanish vessels in the bay
waiting new crop, and they will most probably take
off the first Sugars, as these prices cannot be jjaid
tor the United States.
Of Molasses, small parcels of the new crop are
making their appearance, and contracts for first car
goes have been concluded at 3a3}r. Larg - ones,
for early cargoes, say for delivery not later than 10th
February, have been m ido at 2}rs
In consequence of the small stock of Rice, dealers
have been obliged, within the past few days, to pay
rather higher prices, and the cargo in store per
Brothers, fetched 11} re., whilst the 188 brought by
the Isabel, belug new and of fine quality, were sold at
111 re. 500 bags Valencia Rico have also bo. n placed
at 8} Vs., leaving none on hand except n cargo of
Maranham, just in; hut there arb five cargoes on the
way from your port and Charlseton, which, with the
constant arrivals from Brazil and Valencia, will have,
no doubt, a depressing effect on our market, and pre
vent any profit being made on shipments,
the Cholera still lingers In several parts of the
' Island, and it seems likely that it will visit every
locality. The city and environs have continued free,
but it has reappeared in some districts- where its
visitation had ceased for a time, We bnvo further
accounts from Jamaica by way of the South side,
which report that the disease was raging therewith
very great mortality.

Information was received yesterday, by tele
graph, of the arrival ot the steamship Florida at New
York, from this port in 64 hours, from wharf to
wharf. Considering the extremely rough wentber
which she must nave-experienced on Saturday and
Sunday, the nia.isa most flattering evidence of her
qualities as an excellent sailer and goad sea-boat.
Shipwreck by a Waterspout—A fearful seel
dent happened to the Maltese brig Lady Flora,
which vessel left I’oj temotuh (England) on the 14th
of Oct. for Leghorn. On that same day, about 9 p,

Secession in Carolina,
A writer in ,tbe Charleston Mcrgary ■ others his
views on the subject of immediate secession by the
Legislature of tnat State. Ha thinks thu Legislature
has not the power to secede, a pewer which he vests
wholly in a Convention of the people. He says the
Constitution of Carolina was formed, and the Con
stitution of the United States adopted, by the peo
ple in their sovereign capacity, and that only by
the people, can the binding force of those constitu
tion he abrogated. Another ground assumed by the
writer is, that by the Constitution of the United
States, which so long as it lasts, is a part of the Con
stitutions of South Carolina, no State can make any
agreement or compact with another State, and that
consequently until secession takes place by the sov
ereign authority of the State, no confederacy with
other States can be formed. As the object of Caroli
na ia first to secede, and then to firm a confederacy
with other States, it becomes, in the writer's opinion,
b ghly necessary that she should conform to the re
quirements of law, through the medium of a Oenven
tion of her people. The writer concludes
But if the power of our Legislature was far less
dubious than it is, to act for the people of South
Carolina in these high matters, it would, in the last
degree, he inexpedient to exercise it. YVe should so
act us to keep the consciences of all men in our
State perfectly clear ns to the course which duty re
quires. if you secede by a doubtful authority,
many moil will think that their obligations under the
Constitudon of the United States are not dissolved.—
The General Government may question the right of
secession, when proposed by a doubtful authority
Let us put and keep ourselves perfectly right in eve
ry movement leading to this great end. Let every
man in our Legislature, who desires a dissolution of
the Union, vote for a Satatc Convention. This is
only referring the matter to the legitimate source of
all political power in South Carolina. YVhen ihe
Convention assembles, it need not secede immedi
ately. It canappeal to our si-ter States to meet us in
Convention, and adjourn over to the next full. By
this time we will be fully prepared to secede. Dele
gates fully authorised to secede, can be appointed
conjointly witheth- r Southern States, or should our
sister Southern States decline meeting us in a South
ern Congress, we can act by ourselves, and will be
prepared to meet power with power, should we he
assailed. With our population well drilled during
the summer, and well armed, we can maintain our lib
erties and dissolve this Union, either with or without
fightjug, as our oppressors shall choo-e. We will
three into existenco a Southern Confederacy.
The whole tenor of public sentiment, as well as or
the Legislative action of Carolina, goes to show that
her people are resolved upon resuming their State
sovereignty This reso’utionis not more to lie attri
buted to the aggressive character of the past Federal
Legislation than to the just apprehension which is
felt of further Innovation upon the rights of the South
Election Notice.

HAVANA, NOV. 30,1850.
Since our Report of lGth inst., the transactions in
Sugar have coutinucd insignificant, owing to tlie ex
tremely small stock exist.ug. Planters maintain their
high notions as to prices, and we place our quota
tions as before. The few small parcels of old Sugar
which still come in from the coutry.are of sott interi
or quality. The , resent purchases are cliicfiy tor
the Mediterranean, and are made ut fully sustained
rates. YVe quote:—Writes, 9 a 10} riuls; tine and
choice YVhites, 10} a 11 rials; Yellows 8 rials; very
good to line Yellows,8} a 8} rials; Browns, 7 a 7} rialB;
Cucuruclior,6 } a 6} rials.
The weather, since our last Report, has been fa
vorable for the labours preparatory to griuding. und
for maturing the cane. A few estates began that
process a short time Biuce, but were obliged to stop,
as the juice was fouud too watery. The estates
generally, will commence grinding in all next month,
some sooner and some later, averaging ou the whole,
about the usual period.
A few huds new Molasses havo made their ap
pearance, both here slid in the out ports, amount
ing, however, only to a trifling quantity. Dealers
have high notions in regard to the price, and wo un
derstand that contracts for early cargoes have been
■nude us high as 3} rials.
There is a fair enquiry for Coffee, hut tlie small
extent of supplies restricts business within very nar
row limits. Sales have been made ut $9 a $!U, for
middling to good.
Imports.—A eurgo of Rice came in from Chnrles
ton of prime quality, but not meeting with a higher
offer tliuu 10} rials, it was sent on to N. Orleans.—
Abort 3200 bags Irorn Brazil, equal to700casks,
found buyers at 10 rials for the best lots, und 6} to 8
for the inlerior. There is another cargo ol Brazil
said to he on the way from the South side. The rest
o. the Spunish Rice named as on iiund in our lust Re
port, was sold out in small parcels, and of the 400
casks Carolina in store, about 90 casks have been re
tailed, at from 10} a 11 rials. Our quotations, uuder
these circumstances, are almost nominal.
About 109,000 feet Sacnrup Lumber were placed at
$22, which establishes an advance. A cargo of steam
sawed from YVilmington, ol middling quality, and
not well assorted, rcailzsed $27. About 22,000 B. x
Shooks have come iu, pat t being on contract. Tho
dealers shew no disposition to purchase, and even
prime ,.ew quality would not at the moment, bring
our highest quotations. Their indifference is chiefly
owing to the stocks of old Shooks lying over in their
hands which, added to the new ou contract, enable
them to meat their present engagements, without
further purchases. The inquiry for Hhd. Shooks is
still quite limitet ; some old Molasses, a long time ill
store, were placed at 9 und 10 riais aud some mid
dling Mqscuvudos ut 15 rials. Sales of short und lung
Rhode Island Hoops were made at $45 and $50.-
Empty Casks ci - riuue to move upwards.
jn Fhk;g!HT8 .nudly anything has been d. ne, ow
ing to the scarcity of produce. For a small Spanish
Brig 45[ has been paid to Antwerp The rates tor
the Unltei? States are nominal; we understand a ves
sel accepter? as low as $1} lor Molasses.
