To tka Editor of the Morning JSeut :
His—It affords mo much f ratification to commu
nicate to you the fuel, that on Tuesday tho first
trial of the uew locomotive was mudo over live
miles of the Brunswick Railroad.
The citizens and strangers in the city accepted
the public invitation of Messrs. Collins and Alex-
uder, the Contractors, and a large assemblage of
ladies and gentlemen, furnished with scats on the
cars, made tho excursion. The road so far as
it is completed, exhibits a f<uo specimen of the akill
uud ability of tho Contractors. Iron weighing sixty
prniuds lu tho yard in laid upon the cross lies, dis
pensing with the use of stringers, equal to u saving
of live hundred dollars per mile.
Everyone who participated felt delighted, and
inspired with renewed confidonco iu the success of
tliis great and important enterprise. On the roturn
'film curs to the depot, Levi 8. D'Lyon, Esq , who
ran invited on the occasion, was particularly re
quested and urged to addross tho assemblage, to
which request he promptly responded in an appro-
printo and well delivered speech, which was
received, and much applauded.
On the succeeding day, at 4 o'clock P. M.,
ew and splendid steamer Bt. John arrived in tiie
uri, in beautiful style, with colors flying, and a tine
and of music, usceuding the river for a short dis-
The Breadstuff* Deficiency of Europe.
The Paris correspondent of the Washington Ro
public, writing under dato of Ailgust 8, presents
some interesting views and ffccts in referenee to the
scarcity of Breadstuff* in Europe, a portiouof which
wo extract. He says:
The principal subjoct of interest aftor the Turko-
Russian complication, and one which tlironioiih to
absorb oven that inveterate imbroglio, is tho im
pending short crop throughout the South of Europe,
lou have heard of the great rise in the price of
bread in PavL, uud of the government's recommen
dation to the journals to seek rather to inspire con
fidence on tba subject, than to create uneasiness by
telling the truth. The papera aro wrong, therefore,
in spreading abroad intelligence which thoy uro not
sure they can substantiate, but they publish nblo
nud studied editorials on the resourcen upon which
the country can rely in case of famine. Wheel
suy famine, 1 mean to uso a word more expressive
than scarcity or a short crop. Euglund is tlirealrn-
ed as well as Franco. The King or Naples has pro
hibited the exportation of breadstuff*, und a day or
two ago wo received an edict from Cardinal Auto-
uolli, the Popo'a Secretary of 8ute, suspending ex
portation from the two districts of the States of the
Church known as tho soctions ofthe Adriatic and
tho Mouiterrnnc&u. Of course England und France
look to tho United States for supplies; und the De-
hats tliiuks that your grain dealers will realize enor
mous profits during tho coming scasou, but believes
that the prices will not ottuin tho same inflation us
in 18-17. Broad is now as dear, however, as ntany
period for thirty years, except duriug that ono win
ter of 1847-46.
In May of this year Couut Abel Hugo, brother of
Victor Hugo, published fora privato distribution, and
not forsalo, a “Notice upou the Period ofFuuiino
which menaces France." At tho time this did not
appear to tno to merit mention ; but a word of two
now will not he out of place. The figures given arc
extraordinary, and oviucoarotenrch and knowledge
of statistics quite beyoud the usual application mudo
of data and the science of numbers. The author
says that breadstuff* will bn largely deficient, and
that tho government, commerce, industry, and tho
people at largo, are equally threatened by the ini
A Ride with a Hindman.
eldest*
In tho month of August, 18—, it was incuinbcat
upon me to take a journey to a town at some dis
tancc from my own residence. Timo being no ob
ject with mo, und tho country through which my
route lay very beautiful, I resolved to take it in
what was to ine the most enjoyable way ; but alter
diligent inquiry for any thing in the shape of
stage, I found that tho lunil-coach had ceasod ru
ning the woek beforo ; so that “ the rail” wus u
ouly chance or getting to the rducoofiny dobtiua
Hon. Whereupon 1 mtdu a virtue of necessity—
submitting, though with tho worst grnco in tho
world ; for my habitual dislike to this mode of trav
elling was increased by one of those uiuccountublo
fils of reluctance lo takings journey, which some
times scizos ono, And widen is usually sot down to
the score of norvouanoss. Bo I tried to explain
nduo ; which, as the timo drew near, rose to aeon
ploto droud ofit, to my no'small annoyuuco, for
bad a contempt for omens and presentiments; and
zealously, but vainly, tried to pooh I pooh I myself
out ofit.
The morning broke, dull, wet, oppressive, with
apparently half a score of thunder-storms iu reserve
lor my especial uso ; and at six o’clock 1 jumped

On her arrival at the wharf, tho Contractors ad-
Ircsssd io Captain Freeborn, a polito iuvitntion for
iiiuself, passengers and crew, to uccompauy thorn
ii an excursion ovor so much of tho Road ns was
imploted, and to tuko u glass of wine. The iuvitu-
mi was readily accepted, and with their line bund
r Bumc they repaired to the depot.
The ladies, citizens and strangers in tho city, as
sembled in great numbers, uud at the sound of
whistle the engine was again in motion. The
in becitino interesting, and its novelty in that
of the country, filled every heart with glad
n.s and rejoicing. The ride was an easy and - da-
ightful one. Tho day was fine, and added much to
lie pleasure of all who participated. Arrived at
Five Milo Station, Major Edwiu II. Bacon, of
in nth being present whs loudly called for, and
•quested to uddress, also people. Major Bacon
• a, without u moment’s notice, promptly respond-
in an admirable speech, which elicited rouudsof
pluuso. Amour tho many good things said by
m, he remarked that “ humbugs wore generally
uini on paper—that there could bo no humbug in
iiying a track of iron mils, weighing sixty pounds
die yard." Major Bacon encouraged by his ro-
irk* the Itroaswick people iu press on in their
morprise, which ho said would not only ho felt by
pending danger, lu Egypt tho periods of abund
anco lasted seven years; a period of scarcity then
succeeded, which also lasted seven year*. In
Franoe tlieso periods alternuto, as iu Egypt, but
their duration is not over five, years, or six at the
outsido. This is showu by a reference to cortnin
figures which tho author places hofore the eye of tho
render hi a muuner us intelligible as succint. He
begins will* the year 1810, aftor the peace of 1815,
and the fall of Nnpolaou. Thus:
1st period, scarcity—six years, 1810 21. Excess
of importations over tho exportations, 16,500,000
bushels; which cost France 164,000,000 IVancs.
2nd period, ahundatieo—six years. 1622-L7. Ex
coss of exportations over importations, 3 400,000
buHhols ; which yiolded to France 10,530,000 francs.
3d period, scarcity—five years, 1828-32. Excess
of importations ovor exportation 2U,00ffcM)0 bushels:
which cost France 211,503,000 francs.
4th period, abundance—livo years, 1833-37. Ex
cess of exportation ovor tho importations, 3,000,000
bushels; which yicldod France 15,000 francs.
5th period, scarcity—five yours, 1838-42. Excess
of importations over exportation, 3,000,000 bushels;
which cost France 29,tH)0,000 franc*.
0th period, scarcity—fivo years, 1843-47. Ex
cess of importations over exportations, 52,000,000
huihols; which cost France 515,000,000 francs.
7*h poriod, abundance—five yours, 1848-52. (TIil
statistics for this poriod only refer to tho first four
years ; the -*.st are not published.) Excels of ox
portntious uvor importations, 33,000,000 bushels
which yielded France 180,000,000 franca.
Thus there have boon eighteen years of scarcity
nnd eighteen years of ahundanco; and the balance
against France Is 700,000,000 franc*. From which
it would appear that there will bo a scarcity in
Franco from 1853 to 1858.
1 bad written thus far wben tho decree on the
subject in the Mouitour appeared. The Government
is taking its measures of precaution. Louis Napo
leon repeals that articlo of the corn luw of 1832
which establishes a higher import duty ou bread-
stuffs imported in foreign bottoms than iu French
bottoms—this repeal to have effect till tho 31st of
December. A paragraph in tho nou-ofllcial columns
gives us tho motive of this decree the scarcity of
ships—the Government is afraid to Ray the scarcity
of the crop, but it recognizes it indirectly. The
next step will bo to repeal the duties altogether, for
a time; nud if the state of things does not improve,
this will yet have to bo done.

of his opponoiits, to assusiiuate General
llelzu, tho President of that republic. The day se
lected for the crimo was the Otu of September, 1850.
(u tho afrernoou tho President left the paluco ac
companied by an nid-de-ciimp and Col. Lagunun,
one of the principul mumbors of the seuato aud be
took himself to the public walk. Scarcely bad ho
reached it when four men assailed him. lie otood
upou his defence, but at that moment a bullet struck
bun in the face, and he fell to tbo ground. The shot
had been flrml so noar that his beard was burnt,
and his cheeks speckled with grains ofnowdur. A
second shot was fired, but without effect. When
tho assassins saw him stretched upou tho earth,
thoy fired tlireo other shots at him, but, strange to
relate, each time tho weapons flashed iu the pan.
The chief of tbo brigands—a mulatto named Mo-
rnlos, who was mounted—then fried to trample him
under the horses feet, but without success. Aftor
several efforts, he at last urged his horse closn up
to his victim, and loauing over him, put a pistol to
ms head and fired a last shot. “ The tyrant is
dead I" he cried, aud spurring his horse, he galloped
through the streets to tho barracks, to cxclto the
garrison to revolt. Alcan while Laguana, the senator,
gave tne calmness. Fixing iny eye upon hi...,
to command hi* movements, and porlmps control
hlm.I answered, quietly and firmly, "No, you arc
not." It was well 1 whs prepared. That moment
he spraug on mo, and tho death-struggle began. 1
grappled with him, and attempted to secure his
right arm ; while again und nguiu, as 1 struined «
ry nerve to accomplish this purpose, did that »«.-
cursed blado glitter before my eyes, for my antago-
»«•>• was my superior in muscle and weight, and
armed in addition with the dcinouiacnl Strength of
meduess, now expressed iu every liueamout of his
inflamed and distorted counteoanco.
What a sight was that not auper-human face
Loudly und hoarsely I called for help, but we were
rushiug along thirty milos in the hour, and my cries
were drowned amid the roar of whocis and steam.
How horrible wero my sensations I Cooped up
thus, to be mungled and murdered by a mndmuii,
with means of rescue within a fow feot of mo, and
yet that help, that communication with my fellows
that would have saved me, asuualtainabloas though
wo wore iun desert. 1 quivored, as turning a&ido
thrust after thrust, dealt with oxliuustloss and freu-
zied violonce, I doul'cd not that the nex: must
find its way to my heart. Aly strength wa* rapidly
Inning; not so that of my autaguuist. I struggled
desperately, as alone tho fear of such a death could
ouaule a man to do, aud, my hands gashed and
blooding, at lust wreuchod the knife from his hold,
aud fluug it through the window. Thenl first seem
ed to breathe; but not yet was I safe. With re
doubled rage he throw himself ut my throat, crush-
mg It as with Iron fingersjand as 1 felt his whole
frnme heave atla labor With the violeuco of tho at-
tuck, for ono dreadful niuinent 1 gave up all for lost.
But, surely then some unseen power strengthened
me. Half-strangled, I fluug lit3 wholo weight of my
body upon him, got him down, and planting my
knee on hi* breast, by main strength held him, spile
of his frantic efforts m writhe himself from uudor
me. My hands wore bitten and torn in his convul-
rago, but I fell not—heeded it not. Lifu was
at stukc, und hardly 1 fought for it.
Thu bitterness oi death was upou r
r , nnd awful-
ly clear and distinct, iu that mortal struggle, wore tho
pnst aud the future—the hutnun, sinful past, and tho
•Iread, unknown, uveuging, eternal future. How
wero they joys aud sorrows of years compressed
into that one backward glance, and how uttorly in
significant did they appear as the light of life seem
ed fading from them. Fearfully calm aud collected
was my mind, while my body folt as though diseol/-
mg with tho terrible strain to which ull its powors
wore subjected. Aud yet, consumed as I was with
mental nnd
inoulaj nnd physical agony, 1 woll remember my
sensutiou of bliea, for such it was, when the cool
breeze for a single moment blew upon my flushed
* nd ftreamjng brow, which felt as though at the
mouth of a furnace.
But this could not last long. My limbs shook, and
were fast relaxing their gripe—u mist sworn boforc
iny eyes-my recollection wavered, whou, thank
hoavcu I I becumo sousible of u diminution of
speed. Fresh strougth inspired me. 1 dashed iny
t « soon ns ho attempted ngaiu to

bullets in bis head, seemed almost impossible, he
hu.i — -— «- recent traveller,
had not oven, ho himsulf assured
lost consciousness for a moment; and when Mo
rales and his band left him, he got up unnided,
and reached, bathed in his blood, a neighboring
hut, inhabited by a poor Indian. Tbe news quickly
spread that the chief still lived, and tbe projected
revolution was stifled in its birth.
The preservation of tho President's life was little
short ol a miracle. One ofthe bullets had glanced
off the skull without doing material damage beyoud
occuaiqning complote loss of hearing with the left
ear; but the other had gone so deep into the head
that it could npt bo extracted. It, however, occa
sioned him m> inconvenience, and the only scor per
ceptible on his faco was a slight oue at Uie angle oi

ET* London letter says:—“ Airs. Howard lias
got married : somebody took n faucy to her money,
lor Napoleon’s generosity lies liberally provided for
her. It is said that she is not au American, but is
tbe identical Miss Kate Howard, who was lessee of
tho Olympic theatre acre, in 1845 or '46. Sho was
then short, squat, plump, and very rosy. Inasmuch
aa thu same Mrs. Howard bus not been in Paris
since December, 1851, there cannot be any truth iu
the marvelous story, (ruuniiig tbe ronnds of our
prase now, from an ‘ American paper,*) that tho
Empreea Eugenie came across her, eomo little time
since, in the Champs Elyaees, and gave her a horse-

An Immense Peach Orchard—A gentleman
named Davis, residing in Chennont county, Ohio,
hus a peach orchard of 100 acres, containing 17,000
trees. Air. Davis, it appears, loft Philadelphia a
lew years ago and purchased his present farm—
then considerotl the pourost one in the neighborhood
and set it out with peach trees of tweuty different
v ® r * e f tea from New Jersey. As tbo fanueie in that
vicinity had tried for several year* previous to ruise
peaches for market, and had uniformly failed, they
considered the experiment of Mr. Davis a foolish
one, and even wont so fur a* to appoint a committee
