Au inquest was held last evening upon the body of JDaniel Handcrhan, found in tho river yesterday, at the month of St. Augustine Creek, fivo miles below the city. Tho individual hero named is one of those who ■were on board tho oyster bqat mentioned by us'yester- day as having been capsized near Long (stand; and ilha body is the only one yet recovered. Attempts have been made to raiso llic boat, but they fuiled hi conto< queued of the breaking of the chain used to effect it.— The number of persons on board the boat was six—one who had intended to come up to town in her haring ermnatcly remained behind. The following is a correct list of those on board when Oin boat left Cockspur, some of whom, will probably bo discovered when she is raised—Daniel Hamlorh&n, (whose body has been found,) W. Carney, John Mur- }ihey,Thus. Proctor, JohnM’Oabe,& James Wheelan, the last named being master of the boat. Tho verdict of the Jury was “accidental drowning.” .

IsrAtffr Schools.—\Ve some tune aincc spool a fore noon in witnessing tho mode of teaching pursued in the Infant School In this city, and intended to havo boforo spoken ofiL Tho following description,howovor,of one of tho many similar institutions in tho city of New York, containing os it docs a cloar viow of tho modo of instruc tion, and perfectly applicable to that in this city, super- codes auy attempt at a description of it on our part.— The system we understand, it is contemplated to cxtsnd here, so that tho poorer classes may havo the benefit of it. It is but an act of justice, however, to tho instruc tress, Mrs. Dbqwkr, to say that her parental attention her charge, and tho tad and ability she exhibits in the execution of the arduous duty of instructing so largo a number as sixty children, from 2 to 7 years of age, de. serve oil praise. A visit will well repay tho time spent in it: From the Evening Pott, Interested tn the intellectual advancement of the youth of our city, I gladly availed myself of an invitation to an examination of a private school conducted on the u In fant School Syifcm.” at 110 Bleecker street, and was highly gratified by the pleasing result* evidenced in the accuracy oftho little pupils in their various lessons. The system of “ mental development” long since projected hy Pcstalozzi, has been but recently introduced nmong us, and promises high udvantagos to the rising genera tion ; having already, as connected with the interests of education, assumed nn importance not at first anticipa ted. The practicability of the “ Infant School System,” with even very young children, as well as its utility, were fully illustrated on this occasion, when wero presented an assemblage of more than thirty little ones, under six yenrs, and somo of them two, throe, and four, all ac quainted with the alphabet, competent to spell In words of ono and two syllables, a largo portion to read cor rectly in easy lessons, and at least two thirds of them evidencing an accurate knowledge of tho elements of grammar, arithmetic, geography, astronomy, all of which Mr. Shaw, of Prince William's Parish, South Caro lina, has invented and put in operation n machine for cleaning rice entirely by friction, without tho use of the pestle, and which, it is said, docs not brenk one fourth the quantity of tho common machines. It is worked by horses, produces three to four barrels per day to each horBO; fmd one on the largest and best scale, it is ad ded, would lint cost exceeding -10 or £0 dollurx. Gen. Harrison, and tho U« S. Vice Consul, were board the L T , S. sloop of War Hornet, at Tampico, the 9tli September This information was received tin; brig Drunio, Woodbury, arrived at New York, from Tampico.' fall i the The National Intelligencer, whilst it “confesses that, thus far, the Post Office EstubUliment generally I in; hoon Jew deranged, by the attempt to “reform it,” tliun it had anticipated,” midndmits that tho mailcontrnc liavo been mado lower this year than heretofore—yet af. firms that they have been given to men who, having no thing to risk, incur no responsibility for undertakings which, under any prudential calculation, would bo mci madness ; thatsuina contracts havo been taken, which could not ho executed fur double the amount stipulated to bo puid for them j that they must therefore, through, &c. To all which tho 'Telegraph gives following direct contradiction—“It is not true, as these i ditors assert, that contracts have, in many coin, he given to persons who have nothing to rink. It is truo that some such persons have been imposed upon every Post Master General, and it is more than probable that a fuw contracts on some oftho smaller routes nmy hnv been given to such, but we defy the uditorsoflhu Intelli gencer to namo individuals, and wu venture to nssorl that the new contractor!! will compare advantageous! with Uioxq employed by nny of Mr Barry’s predecessors, As to the mode oftransportntion, we ore informed that (lie stngn routes havo been extended and that mail on lliu great routes will travel with increased speed, 'J’uko for instance, the mail to Payette iu Missouri. <l< r the new contract it will arrive three days sooner (bail heretofore. The routes to New Orleans will more improved.” were plainly illustrated to the class by diagrams, pic tures, and sensible objects. Tho exercises wero char mingly intermingled, with easy gymnastic performances, moral’songs nhd recitations by tlm little sc! I songs nhd recitations by tlm little scholars, none of which seemed to be out ol’nlnco, nor without its np propriatc application to tho subjects of instruction, or tin moral discipline of tho school. Tlm school mom was ornamented by pictures and maps, intended, no doubt, to illustrate their daily IcssonB. My admiration was icculiarly excited by the extreme good ordcr-nml chocr- ulncss prevalent nmong tho little scholars} atul I think * discovered tho secret of their management, whilo 1 Tho condition of tlm commercial and manufacturing interests of Great Britain, is such at tho present mo ment as to require tho exertion of all tho intellect of her politicians and political economists to restore these great interests to a portion of their wonted prosperity, and to savo a largo portion of her population from actual star vation. ‘‘In every corner of the Empire, it is kcinark- cd hy the London Spectator, inovery branch of traffic, wo fmd demand small, supply in excess, profits falling, wages scanty, masters hostening to decay, laborers iu rags, nothing stationary but the taxes, and nothing in creasing but tho poor rates.—The cotton trade, the woollen trado, tho iron trado, tho silk trade,- all suffen some more, somo less.” Tho causes of this universal depression are various, according to tho political bias of those who devote their attention to it—to the com laws, inequality in taxation, tho small note bill—tho free trade system, tho taxes, to which Mr. Cobbettadds tho stdto of the representation in Parliament, and the Tory journals tho Catholic Emancipation Dill. Each discovers in tho opinions and mcnsurcs pursued contrary to his own, tho grand source of die evils which all admit, because all see and feel them—and all of course consider tho only panacea, the .repeal of the obnoxious measures opposed by them. But probably it is to no one causo to which wo are to look for tho existing evils, but to a combination of causes. Whatever are the sources, however, from which the present distress in Great Bri tain arises, that it exists docs not admit of a doubt, and it is oven stated that many of tho nobility, gentry, and yeomanry, have \\ in contemplation to hold meetings for the purpose of petitioning tho King to rc-osscmblo Par- liamont immediately, and take into consideration tho deplorable condition of tho United Kingdom. What measures it may bo supposed necessary to propose to alleviate the sufferings of tho people, are not stated; hut wo very much doubt whether nny relief will bo af forded by Parliament, before whom tho public distresses hnvo been presented for years past, w ithout any diminu tion in their amount, or much change in their character. obserred that tho system conforms to that desire for no- -city so characteristic of the jnvenilo mind—for by the arm' “ “ 1 ' ' ’ icty of subjects presented to them, and tlm pleasura ble sensutions excited in their minds, every cause of ir ritation was excluded, tlmVoby enabling Inc teacher to govern them with case, and by kindness alone. I think no parent present coulu refuse their most cordial appro bation to tlm opuning exercises of tho school} when Urn children wero examined on tho practical duties growing out of the fifth commandment. The whole arena wan ono of great interest, and excited a desire in my breast that similar establishments might ho originated in every part of our city—feeling assured that children whose education is commenced on such principles,, must not only bo improved in heart by its moral discipline, but will also acquire a stock of useful knowledge, not easily effaced from tho mind, and abundant stores of truths and facts, which tho pupils of other schools may never accumulate. Dice.—An interesting correspondence has taken plnco between Wm. Washington, Esq. on tho patt of tho Agricultural Society of South Carolina, and the Secretary of tho Navy, in relation to the more extensive introduction of Dice, as an articlo of food, into the Navy of tlm United States. Wo regret that wo liavo not room for the letter of Mr. Washington; we subjoin however, the letters of the Secretary of tho Navy r.nd tlm Commissioners of tho samo Department, Tho in creased consumption of rice, which its general adopt ion as an article of food in tho navy would cause, would bo an advantage to tho planters of the South generally, whilst as an article of food, none can he offered superior to it, either at sea or on shore. Its adoption in the army is also on object worthy of the consideration oftho General Government. Tho .Mercury*remarks on the subject:—“Thanks are duo to tho Socrctary for tho tn- Onc oftho London papers copies from tlm Australian an account of a lusua natural, exhibiting in Canton, in Chinn, passing tlm singularity of the Siamese twins— It is described us a “young Chinese, now aged about IQ to 17 years, w ith a dwarf twin, as it were, attached to his breast, complete in all parts but tho head, which is probably concealed within tho body of the other.— This appendage participates and sympathises in every move, gesture, and passion of tlm other, and seems to open a wonderful field for speculative philosophy to nc- count for the hitherto unheard-of (bet of only one life aud soul inhabiting, in all but tho head, two complete orporcal systems. Very largo sums, amounting to somo thousands sterling, have been offered hy tho Eng lish at Canton to this unfortunate creature, hut in vain, to proceed with tlu-m to England, iu order to obtain money by tho exhibition of so wonderful a curiosity.” tcrest bo haii manifested on thjs Biibject^so important to tnlSTno hSS given to Southern planters, airatortlio prori cause experiments to bo made for tho purposo of testing the objections urged by tho Commissioners oftho Navy. Tho:.o objections, it appears, resolve themselves alto gether into a prejudice on tho part of sailors against the use of rice as tending to impair tho sight, and nn appre hension of difficulty from tho quantity of water that might bo required in preparing it. Of tho first it is sufficient to sav thut it is totally uufounded, as is abundantly proved by the experience of thousands of our people who have lived all their lives in Um daily consumption of the article, lie, therefore, who should remove nn objection so utterly ridiculous, nnd yet, ns it seems, so inveterate and deep rooted, would confer a benefit upon sailors, in cnubling them to conquer an un founded fear, aud at tha same timo to enjoy an artictc of food, fully as safe, and much more nutritious and strengthening, than uny other vcgetublo now afforded them. Of tlm difficulty on tho score of water we are not competent to judgo; but rico would certainly not require more water in preparing it, than would bonus tir potatoes, or any other article fur which it might ho provided as a substitute.” Navy Dkyahtment, ? October 21, 18-29. f Sir—T liavo hail tho honor to receive your interesting communication, dated tho 2'Jih tilt, upon tho subject of introducing Rice ns a part of tlio form to lie used 1iy the Navy of tlm United States, nnd enclosing, nn Extract from the Minutes oftho Agricultural Society of South Carolina. Respectful attention has been given to your commu nication, and I enclose a ropy of a letter from the Com missioners of ibo Navy, containing their views in rela tion to a morn extensive use of the article of Rico. 1 beg you to assure tiie Agricultural Society of South Carolina, that experiments shall ho made, nnd aihiratid full investigation be had, to test the weight oftho objec tions urged by the Coinmisiouerx. I am very respect fully vnur* &c. JOHN BRANCH. Wm. Washington, Esq. ) Coring. Sec’ry. Ag. Soc’y. S. C. > Navy CoMMi?3iONi:nv Office, > October Ifi//», 1829. j ^ Sir—Upon the subject of the letter of \V. Washington, Esq. and tho Resolutions nflltc Agricultural Society of South Carolina, which you were pleased to refer to "this Hoard, the Commissioners beg leave to observe, that by law Rice is at this timo part of tlioNnvy ration—two days •» the week (Wednesday nnd Friday) half a pint is issued to each person on board of ship—it is ulso used as Hospital stores. The Commissioners concur in opinion with Mr. Washuigteii ns to Rico lining a nutritious and whole some Ihod—and they would bo glad to see it more exten sively used lliaii it is. There is however among sailors generally, a strong pre judice or dislike to it. The be lief among them is almost universal, that thnuscofit impairs tho sight, ami it is a fnct thut of tlm quantity is sued in our service,seldom morn than half is consumed Thin prejudice or dislike is so deeply rooted, that any at- t' lnpt to introduce the extensive use of Itice would, wo apprehend, render tho service unpopular. In reference to the service itself, tut objection of some weight exists, in the quantity of water which would lie consumed in boiling the rice—in a season of active op erations, this objection would bo more serious. An ollcnipt was once mode by one of our Commanders In introduce tho use of corn hominy and meal nn hoard of his ship—lint it produced such surioun discontent among tho crew, that it has never since linen revived.— I have tho honor to he, with grout respect sir, your ob’t. servant. (Signed) JOHN RODGERS. Hon. John Bra wm, > Secretary of the Navy. J Tho celebrated Gentian poet, Coe tha, completed his flOth year on the QBth August last. Ilis birtli-day was celebrated iu the Theatres at Vienna, and a subscription opened for a present in testimony of admiration for his talent* und works. be The President has recognized Hon.

The first edition of M, LevaHseuris Tour through tho United Stutes, in French, consisted of 100,000 copies. An extra session oftho Legislature of Pennsylvania was to convene at Harrisburg, on Tuesday last. The subject of principal interest before that body, will bo the Internal Improvements now-in course of completion, but which it is much feared will bo at least partially defeat ed, by tho want of necessary funds. Garcia, tho celebrated opera singer, some timo since in this country, and who afterwards visited Mexico, where it was said ho was killed by brigands, who com- polled hint to net tho part of tho dying swan by singing his own requiem, was performing iu Paris on the 23th September. Tho Grand Jury of Upland County, Pennsylvania, havo returned a truo bill ofmdictnicut against Thomas Brooke, for tho murder of hb father, General William Rfooln. — We stated yesterday tho destitution or a Mayor, for having joined in tho ltonbrs to Lafayette ! We now add tho proceeding to which tills intended disgrace gave rise:— “ Tho intelligence of this event,” says the Procurseur’of Lyons,” inspired tho inhabit ants oftho commune with the greatest indig nation—not boing able to conceive why peucu- fbl citizens may not; without crime, honor one oftho worthiest public men of tho nation; The whole population assembled spontaneous ly in tho public square : there, each one ex pressed lus regrets, and recalled, with delight, he useful and honornblo uetq of tho displaced Magistrates. Thence they proceeded to tho Office oftho Mayor, whore these functionaries still wore ; and there Mr. Rotnain Peyton thus spoke in the nutno of his fellow citizens: Jlfr. Mayor, and Mr. Deputy.—The in habitants of this communo have learned, with the greatest pain, that, by a decree of tho Minister oftho Interior, M. de Labourdon- naye, of lltli inst., you wero deprived of tho functions you have discharged with so much* zeal,& in which you have so justly acquired the confidence and esteem of those you had to ad minister to. The motives which have affor ded to tho new Ministry a pretext for this act, are too honorable to bo made a cause for coin- ilaint! You are, Gentlemen, the first citi zens stripped of their gratuitous functions, for having taken part in the honors paid to Gen. Lafayette ? Let us not envy, tho enemies of tho public liberties this poor satisfaction, whilo all France isstill echoing with the accla mations which every where burst- forth upon the passage of this great Citizen, and especi ally m the second City of tho Kingdom 1 The Deputy, who was the object of this enthusiasm will live in history,’ in spite of the calumnies of party men! Tho people will always recol lect, that he was, at the time, the zealous de fender of legal liberty—-which, among us, em braces attachment to constitutional monarchy —that on the 5th and 6th October, he twice saved the lives of the Royal Family—that, previously to the 10th August, ho sacrified his popularity in order to snatch Louis XVI. from the dangers that threatened him ; and that, proscribed for his energetic protest, at the bar oftho Legislative Assembly, and ar rested in a neutral country, ho expiated,in the dungeons of Austria, tho crime of having al ways Faithfully observed tho line of his duty!! You, gentlemen, you too, fulfilled a ditty, in not separating yourselves from all those under your core, in those imposing circum stances when the itrcsoncc of our magistrates as the organs of our unanimous sentiments, added a now value to their manifestation, and ensured tranquillity and good order iu tho midst of our rejoicings. Receive, therefore, tho expression of our thanks, nnd of our regret. The Mayor and his Deputy were sensibly affected by this address. In tho evening, a banquet at which numbers wero presented- was prepared for them, and afterwards, a bril liant serenade was performed under their windows. These testimonies of tho esteem of their fellow-citizens abundantly compensa ted lor the vengeance of Ministers. The Prefect of tho Department having de- signated M. Buscaillon as provisional Mayor, this respectable old man answered, “that M. Finnnt having been removed by tho Minister oftho Interior for having taken part in the honors paid 1o Gen. La Fayette, ho was hound to declare that lie himself had done the same thing, together with all the other inhabitants of the Commune—and that ho could not, therefore, trouble the Minister to do justice upon luinther. in similar error.”— AT. 1.

This is looked upon as tantamount to con verting these public functionaries into spies upun their neighbors’ acts and words! A Romantic Incendiary.—John Charles Bayn- tun, a person of highly respectable connexions, was lately tried in England lor tho capital offence of setting fire ton rick of hay at Bath Easton. On arraignment, ho acknowledged his guilt, and declared his reusons for committing the crimo charged. Disappointment in u lovo affair had determined him atjfirst to commit sui cide j but lest he should, as he said, “destroy both body and soul” by that act, ho took the method staled, to rid himself of tho intolerable burden of existence, by the hand of the law—first communicating his intentions to tho young lady upon whom ho had placed his affections in pussionato terms, and bidding her an eternal farewell. Judgment of death was recorded, but tho actual sen tence waft not pronounced. A Mons. Chauliert is astonishing Die inhabitants of London by sundry unnatural poison and fire-proof ope rations—such as swallowing phosphorus nnd hot oil, nnd baking himself in an oven in a temperature of500° Fah renheit.

The text wuh upon the terrors of tho gospel, ns denounced against sinners, to prove which the preacher rcterred to several passa ges of Scripture, to nil of which tho lady seem ed very attentive, but somewhat agitated. Burns, on perceiving this, wrote with a pencil on tho hack leaf of his Bible tho following lines: “ Fair maid, yon need not take tho hint, Nor idlu texts pursue; ’ Twas only ttimters that he meant— Not angels such as you.” IIypkrdolr.—A Vermont horsn jockey boasting tho other day of the speed of his horse, gravely assorted that ho could trot seventeen tiiilos au hour. “ Seventeen miles un hourl” says a by-ntnndcr, “I guess that’s a thumper.”—“ My dear follow,” ropliod ho of tho Green Mountain, “ 17 miles is not great for tho creature now; for when ho was but 2 yenrs old, tho lightning killed the old ninro, and chased tho colt all round tho pasture, without getting within ton rods of him.” A negro clorgymnn addressed his congrega tion thusBlov’d bredron and sister, you dono how to toll do ships from dogotes—borry well: I shall nsk you which ob dem hab de wool, aud which ob dem hub de hair / Married.—In Hinsdale, Henry Trivol to Miss Calistn Wright, after a short but sure courtship of thirty minutes.
