The Infant Drummer, The Drummer is u prodigy ! tho highly lati- dntoiy polices of his execution on the drum,by the presses of the different cities which lie bus visited and which had preceded him, liadcuus- ed doubts in the iniiidsofsome, whether par tiality to his extreme youth had not dictated 1hem. Rut his performance last evening be fore a highly respectable audience in St. Andrew’s Hall entirely dissipated these doubts, and established him in the minds of all who heard him, as unquestionable the great est musical wonder of the age. No language is too stronglo express his mastery over his favorite instrument. Nor is the expression of liis wonderful talent, confined alone to this. His whistling, in which be accompanied him self in several tunes oeljOio dium, is clear, strong and musical. Among the more noticeable traits of his performance, the variety and striking contrast of the nirs which he plnys, and which is regarded as the test.of niusiery in others, is in him perhups the least. In the " Grand Finale Medley,” which con cluded the entertainment last night, aud in which a great variety of airs were introduced, the changes of the different measures of time were mude without the loss of a beat or the slightest interruption to the flow of the melo dies.

This is believed to be the largest quan tity ever cleared from any port in the United Statea-ia one day. The exports to Liverpool during the preceding three days amounted to 43,406 bales, and the entire exports for the same period to 50,416 bales. Tho Bcscau of Cubit Diwcontlnueil. We find the following brief announcement in the last number of the neaf paper with the above name, started a few weeks since in New Orleans by Mr. John 8. Thrasher. What does it mean? To Our Subscribers.—We regret to an nounce to our subscribers that with (bis num ber the publication of this paper will be sus pended. Causes which arc entirely beyond our control render this step uocessary to the interest and true progress of the cause' of Cu ban emancipating Caloric (Air Ship) Enterprise.—The Journal of Commerce, understands that the geutleiuen through whose instrumentality the calorie ship Ericsson has besn built, are so ful ly satisfied with the success of that vessel, that it is their intention to shortly lay the keels of other aud still larger ships, of tho capacity of say 4,000 tons, into which engines of sufti- cieut power will be placed, to give them a «o.ieh higher maximum speed. We understand that during the present year, at leant six ves- eels of this description will be built for tbs same parties. Improvement In Tclepraph Wires. A writer in (he Philadelphia American, sug gests that ii is worthy of serious consideration of all who have an interest in the matter, wheth er the improved methods of construction used lately in British India, might not be introduced in our lines with general public benefit. In order that these methods may be properly ap preciated, we may describe them hers. They appear to be wot mere arbitrary or theoretical changes from the American mode, but very decided Imp/ovomcnts, which are calculated to impart a greater durability to a line of tele graph than can be obtained by the present sys tem. The alterations we allude to were intro duced in the lines constructed recently between Calcutta and Kedgeree. In the overground portion of lliesa lines, instead of wire, a thick rod is used, which is three-eighths of an inch in diameter, and weighs one ton to a mile. The comparative thickness of this rod and the wires of the European and American lines, inr conceived from the fact that the thickest in any of the latter route, weighs hut one hun dred pounds to a mile. The India rod is thus twenty times as thick as the heaviest wire used elsewhere. In uonsequenco of the mass of inetsl in the iron rod, it allows such a free passage of the electric current as to require no insulation yet it costs, or is said to cost, no more thnn the thin wire doos ; the welding occasions no difli cully ; it needs no protection ; it is capable oi sustaining a greater amount of rusting, with out damage, than wire, and is merely laid up on tho posts without the necessity of any strnining or winding apparatus, such as is em ployed to lighten the wire lines. It is not cas ily broken or bent; and if thrown down injured. We trust our American telegraph com patible will piofit by the success of this expert ineut, and substitute more substantial conduc tors for the present slight and frail wires. W< should tlion hear of fewer derangements and interruption.! ofcommunicaiion. It is especial ly worthy of their consideration, if it bo true, that it cunts no more to build the telegraph in a durable style tliun in the present temporary manner. Certainly it would not bq so easy to •ever n thick iron rod as to break a thin wire, and designing persona would bo more likely to be detected in the act. Storms, however severe, do not break or interrupt tho Indian lines, while they continually impair the efli- cioncy of ours iu tho United Stales. YVnought Iron Direct from the Ore, —A now process for niuking wrouglil-iron from tho ore, without the usual introductory melt ing into pigs, has been discovered by Mr. Jus. Renton, of Newark, N. J., who hus taken niour.urcs to secure n patent for it. A compa ny hus boon formed for carrying on the manu facture, and buildings have been erected on tho 1’iiHsaic. River, ut the foot of l’arker-slreet, Newark, where the process has been now iu successful operation for several weeks. The results of these experiments show that a good ipiulity of wrought-iron con be mude direct from the ore, by which an immense saving iu ilia ordinary manner of using pig-iron is ef fected. The process is founded upon scientific prin ciples, and tho ore cun ho mude immediately into blooms. Tho editor of tho Scientific American says lliut he bus visited the place and can spsuk confidently on tho subject; during his slay he saw the operation carried on, and marked the time required for making the iron, which was at the rate of a toil por day, of twelve hours—4 blooms of over 70 lbs. each, having been made iu un hour. Any de scription of fuel—wood or coal, both anthra cite and bituminous, can be indifferently em ployed for licuiingthu furnace, aud with nearly oi|unl advantage. If this discovery shall Hand the test of con tinued experiment, and of this the Scientific American seems to entertain no doubt, it will bn tho first grout discovery in tho improved inanufi|cUire of iron, since tho early duvu of German Students.—Letters from Mann heim state that in consequence ol a telegraphic dispatch from Heidelberg, announcing that the ntudents of that Univcraity were concerting with the citizens a dcmuiistiation against the “ Amtmniin,” or chief magistrate, two compa nies of infantry were sent in all haste to the Mnmiheim Railway station, ho as to bo ready to ntuit for Heidelberg at n moment’s notice. The demonstration, probably in consequence of these precautions, was, however, postponed. Powder Mill Explosion—'Puree Lives Lost. — The mill of the Atneiican Powder Company in Acton, Maas., blew up ou Satur day, killing three men, named Hudson, Bal- aud Hanson, 150 kegs of powder ex ploded. nr Thu Vermont liquor law provides that any iutolicated man maybe urrestud und com mitted !o prison until he is in a condition to tell where he got his liquor; and if he refuses to divulge, is locked up till ho relents. This law in to be voted npon by the people, and tlteir adverse decision is tu operute only for its postponement ouo year. I3T Don .Salvador lturbiUo, soil of the Em peror Iturhide, has arrived at Sou Francisco, intending to prosecute a claim before the Cali forniaLand Coininissif.n, to a tract of laud it the State granted by the Mexican Congress, in 1835, to his father’s family, for his efforts in achieving the independence of the country. 1ST The llurtford Times has u letter (rotn Washington, which soys:—“ Brickmukers here are making fortunes; and why can they not, when bricks are selling, os now, at seven to nine dollars, and the demand increasing ? It is estimuted that 20,000,000 more will be re quired to finish the Capitol extension, and ubout 12,000,000 more for the Patent Office, besides a government hospital, an usylum, pri vate residences, Ac. Abundance of wood limber and clay can atill bu obtuined on the Eastern Branch near the city, nud a good op portunity is preaeutud to those who understand the busiuess. Extraordinary Proure.-s in the North west.—in Do Row’s Review for January is an able article upon Wincousin, from which we extract the following surprising statiatics ol progress: 1810, total population 30.945 1»«. ’* “ 44.478 1846. 155,277 210.510 .305,55s the French# The brig 7'wo Indies, arrived at Boston, biings dates from Port au Platt, to the20lh of December.

A Portuguese fore-snd uft schooner, with clew of twenty men had been seized at Po itu Platte on suspicion of being a hInver, and taken m St. Domingo City. Pirates in the China 8kab.— 1 The advices received in Loudon by the overland mail state that a huge C..ineoe junk, bound to Amoy from Singapore, with cargo valued at 20,000 doll bad been attacked near Nnmoa by pirates, aud nineteen of tho crew, including a European •ailing muster, murdered.

Cruel Treatment of Indluns in Contra Costa. | Tho facts told iu thu following relation are so shocking w« fain would icgurd them its ex- Hgguiatfd, and yet they coma in such authen tic shape wo cannot dichttlievo them.] It acorns that two Culiforniua iu Contrn Costa, wiio have hud under their control, dur ing the lust summer und fall, .* iurgu number of Indians, cither employing them in work ing for themselves or hiring them out to other persons, have, now that the rainy season has cornu on and the winking seunon is over, brought ilium to the rancho Nun Pablo, on lliu buy of that name, and there uhundoned them, perfectly duHlitute of the nccesHnries fur their subsistence during tlio winter. Their number about eighty, of which nearly hull are women and chi.dren. They luivu been left there to live through the inter ua best they may, most of them being without any article of clothing or protection ugainst the weather, and nil of them left to live upon such articles of food ut might bu thrown their wuy, und for the procuration of wbic.'i they uro not in the lietit condition after the se verity of the labor they Inivo been performing during thu punt scuhon. The consequence Iiuh been that a large number have been actually prostrated, and eighteen of them have alroudy died—a frightful proportion— so much so that tho rumor Iiiih gone uhroud that they were af flicted with some terriblu epidemic; but from the facts of their condition, as testified by nu- witnesses, it cuimnt lie doubted that they perilled of actual starvation.

According to the melancholy ituls elicited by the coroner’s investigation in (In jcaso of Matthew Laiigdon, (a victim, by suicide, to the ** rap” niniiia,) on Thursday last, there are certainly three distinct circles of spiritualists in tlio city, all apparently well patronized ; nnd nt u charge ol ouo dollar for ench interview, their regular fee to customers, they uro doubtless driving tt lucrative busi ness.

It was in 1740, one day, in the afternoon, I was engaged in literary labor, when my yulei, informed me that a lady.clorely soiled, wialird to see me. I went to meet her with a kind of presentiment. *‘ M«n dieu, sir,” she said to toe, when seated on my sola, in mv little Irion ; " nothing cat) be more simple. 1 have come from Iaiudon to offer yon my bond.” Though habituated to all sorts of strange ad ventures, 1 confess 1 must Iirvs exhibited great surprise.

I gnzed upon her beautiful eyes, sparkling with love aud plea sure. Another in my place would have ima gined that he was the dupe of nil adventuress, without henrt oi money.

A Mrs. Wharing nnd two daughters, the youngest only four years old, hy liuppy pres enc.c of mind of the mother, tho husband und futlier being absent down tlio river, were for- tuuutelv suved on tiuturday night from drown ing. They lived in a cottage, iu au isolated situation, on the enst fork of the Miami river. Tha position occupied hy their dwelling, a gentle elevation from the bottom land, ' thought by them to bu perfectly secure from any immcdiule danger from the fcNahei. Tlio, retired to tied at an early hour, the water then several feet below the level of thoir dwelling ; hut iu the night they wero suddenly awakened and alarmed by the wulor lushing througl their room. Their first thought was to escape to higher land, about eighty rods distant, and to seek shelter with their nearest neighbor; hut then it suddenly flashed upon tho mind of the pa rent, that from the elevated position they oc cupied, encircled with lower laud, they were entirely surrounded, cutting of all cuuiiuuni cation, ami the wnter too deep to wade—tliev thou shouted with all their feohlo might for assistance, but llm distance and the wild fury of the storm still raging, rendered all their efforts vain.
