JOS. CUM.MING, WM. CRABTREE ,Jr.} CommUtee. JCJ* lly the schr. Kathdin, Capt. Cole, arrived vnaterdsy from St. Thomas via Turks Island, we re ceived a paper ol die former plate of the Uljt ult. It .contains no new s. Xbk Maii..—There was no tiorthern mail received Rere yesterday mornhig, in consequence oftho culpable i,e-»'igonce, *o soy the least, of the dtirers that meet at Purvsbiirg. Instead of exchanging portmanteaus as tVy should have done, each returned on hi* route with tl\at he had brought, thereby delaying for 21 hours both outward and inward mail. We trust that tho proper corrective w ill be applied by the Post Otlicc Department in a way calculated to prC' tent a recurrence of such an evil. The Hon. Gromit M. Titovr, left this city yesterday, jit the steam packet John D. Mongin for Charleston, on Iris way to Washington. The District Court of the United States, was opened vQstcrdsy, according to adjournment; hut, no case be ing on the docket, and the Attorney stating in his pluce, that there was nothing for trial, tho Jury was discharg ed, without having been impanndlcd. Vfe this inornimg publish all the report upon the Pen itentiary of interest to the reader, excluding only some of the tables, the results of which are given in the It will be perceived, that it has been highly sue- 1 irmful, con-idcr.ng its present imperfect state. BV cannot hut hope that an appropriation will be made for 4 he purpose of constructing separate sleeping apart ments, and adapting the other improvements so success fully carried into operation in the northern states, par ticularly at Auburn and Sing-Sing, in New York, and ul Wethersfield, in Connecticut. Of another improved system, that of absolute solitary confinement, as adopted jn tho new Philadelphia Penitentiary, some parti culars were given during the past summer, in our co'umns. It was then without tenants, not being sufli- 4-icntly prepared to receive them. Thu Philadelphia Gazette, of a recent date, informs us“ that two per sons have sinco been placed there, and tho effect tlr j has been produced on their minds, is such as was anti* cipiled by tho friends of the system of separate confine ment. Each of them says ho ia convinced, that it is fir better for him to bo confined in this way, than to bo compelled to associato with those hardened in guilt.— Months of confinement undor tho new system will pro duce moro effect than years under tho old.” We do not dfcsira to recommend this systom, in preference to the others; but mention it as ono deserving of attention with rhem, when tho object of improvement is in view, A copy of the Hill in the Senate providing for the cull of a Convention for tho revision of the Constitution of Jhi* State, which was made tho order of the day for Wednesday, will also bo found in pur subsequent co- Vi nnj, Rick.—Wo published some time ago a correspon dence between tho Agricultural Society of South Caro lina and the Navy Department, in relation to tho more general introduction of rice os an article of food in the Uftvy, in which tho Commissioners state that such is the prcjudico of the seamen against this wholesome escu lent, that the introduction of tiny further quantity in their t ied would be likely to render the service unpopular. It would be useless labor, w e are awarc,to<ir£t/r against the prejudice existing among these men, that it is in jurious to their eve-sight—experience uluno will do a- way with this belief, and that experience can only ho attained by its use. Hut the manner in which Rice is used inilioNavy, is itself calculated to prejudice sea men against it. It is now served out on ban-yan days a- pine, and is given with Molasses. No ono of those c* ven who arc accustomed to the use of rice, would pre fer it in this way at all times—on the contrary it is al ways used n ith us in place of potatoes or other vegeta bles, with animal food, in which mode it is most palata ble, and w preferred to any other vegetable, by every one who becomes habituated to it. At sea, from its feshness, it is peculiarly palatable with sail provisions ; and if prepared in the mode pursued in the .South, will requiro much less water Ihun by that UKiiully pursued elsewhere, hy which another objection will he surmounted—certainlyil will not requiro moro water than beans or many article*, now in use ill the Navy.— If served out in this way at the first, »ay for two or three Times a week, wo arc confident it will become popu lar among the men, and judging from our own taste, we have no doubt they will ho inducod to prize it above any viher vegetable protluciiw either vf i to; kit or tho table. Joseph Hurnligm, who was executed some years since in Vermont, it w as recently asserted, was alive and well in the city of Now-York. Affidavit of the tact was mndo and the grave was opened, hut from the tune elapsed, thu body in it could not be recognised.— The matter came before the Legislature, and comm is Stoner* were appointed to investigate the subject. Ono of theso proceeded to Nuw-York, where, after inquiry «»f the person who hud sworn to the fact ofser.ng Burn- ham in tho street*, and an examination of the individual Kworn to bo Burnham, it was ascertained thut the Liter was ono Patrick Dolan, a worthy professor of mortar and trowel, who knew no moro of Uuriilmm, than he did or Preitcr John or tho Grand Seignor, ami was never hanged in his life. 'lid* testimony wan conclusive to the conunhmom.ru, an well it might he, who reported accordingly. Whether the editor* who have pettinaci- ,ously insisted upon the rciurrcction of Burnham, w ill he * convinced against their will," which wo have good authority for laying i* not being convinced nt all, in un i ortuin. They, like many others, find it a hard matter to surrender a good story which may be served up diur- iiully or hebdomudtilly for lha edification of their readers. It is a lingular affair altogether, and kept the good peo ple of the statu vfVonnwit for a concitlerabto time all Olive. An individual rather meanly drcaiad for the rank it pleased him to assume, a half pay British officer, has recently placed tho clotliing store*, and tho landlord of the Globe at Augusta, under contribution. He asswn- oil tha name* of .Must and Mott, and represented him self as tho brother oftho British Consul at Baltimore. After obtaining an entire new suit from the tailors, for which ho paid in part, and being defeated in his attempts to obtain horses on like lutnw to expedite his journey, he ilccan.pod incontinent, leaving not a track behind.. In an action foe Breach of Marriage Promise, in Delaware, a verdict of one Kuudnd atul tuy-Jbur dul• lart was given In favor of the prosecutrix, The value of broken hearts in Delaware proves thus to be ascer tained very exactly The l)i lawarc Journal, considers it rather crcditublo to the fidelity of tho sw ains of that neighborhood, to their engagements with the fair sex,and to the delicacy of the damsels themselves, that this is the first instance in the county, of a trial of this species of action, which has of lute years become so fashionable in this country. Richard Vfawh a very ingenious mechanic of Salem Bridge, Ct. it is said, has lately invented u clock which winds itself up. It keeps cornet time, strikes the hour regularly, and will continue to run until worn out with out the application of any pow er to if. This is perpe tual motion, nt least as far as any can ho pcrpatual form ed of materials within our grasp. But we have heard of so many perpetual motions which have perversely refused to go for any length of lime, or indeed to go nt all, that wo me quite dubitablc on this, as on many others which have come hi fore us in m:r reading. Mr. Leggett conductor of the Telegraph on the Mer chant's Exchange, N. Y., has h ft that city for ihe pur pose of superintending the erection ol u telegraphic tower on the heights of Nave-sink, on a site that will af. ford a commanding view of a long stretch of coast, and enable him to report vessels which arrive from a south and south-easterly direction a lung time before they would be visibln at the Sandy Ilouk Look-out Station. Froh Cnuro*.—Wo'lesrn, by the arrivul at New York of tho brig Guv. Van Scholton, in 1G days from Curacoa, that tho weather at that place, from the 22J to the 27lh of October, had been very tempestuous, witli much rain and heavy thundei and lightning. Thu wind prevailed for three days from S. S. W. S. W., which caused a heavy swell in thp harbor; but the shipping, w ith the exception of one man of war, which broke adrift, rode out the gate. From the country the accounts were r.ot so favorable. One man lost eight thousand barrels cf suit by the break oftho sea. Derate at: os.—It ia stated in the New Oilmans Argus, that a special committee was some time since appointed to examine tho accounts oftho Inspector and Collector of the tax on grog shops. Thu mint nit ten have made considerable progress, and discover a ih licit amounting to upwards of ten tkt/usand dollar*, A large- grog bill. West’s celebrated picturn of “ Christ Rejected," is now to be seen in New York. It occupies moro can vass than his “ Christ healing the sick” exhibited at the hospital in Philadelphia.

Tho Durlington (Vl.) stage was recently overturned between Iloyalton and Sharon, and several of the pas sengers severely injured. Judge Dana, cf Cabot, had three of his ribs broken, and was otherwise I ruiml. The (ln>t chaise, or chair on wheels, ti.-ed in New Huvcti, was introduced by Madnut SulnmMo't, when sho married President Clap, A. I). 17<10. Tho second was owned bv Mr. Greendueh; tho third by Genera) Wooster, on his return from England, about 1718 or 1730. When President Clap first came to New Ha" ven, in 1730, there were no mote than eleven houses in tho town with sash fights in windows. Madam Finos, tho celebrated Vocalist, has arrived at Charleston, and is engaged hy Mr. Adatns, to make her ftcsd appearance this evening, in an opera, with Mr. Plutncr. Tho following communication has buun on file seve ral days ; and wo now publish it with reluctance, be hoving that tho proper place for its appearance would have been tho same ns that in which the objectionable article appeared, and believing further, that the publica tion was not intended to impeach the moral or oflici.il character of Mr. Doolittle. With this, however, wo have nothing to do—we do not fed nt lilicrty to reject a vindication of the hind, so long ns it is couched in tempe rate terms, and we rc-publish the paragraph complained of, bo that ihe whole merits of the qm siion may he be fore the render. Mr. I). will perceive, that wo hnv« omitted a portion of his letter, w hich we consider unne cessary folds vindication. From the Republican, 3d JVaremher. We have received a letter from an old subscriber on Cumberland Island, complaining of an trregulani v in de livering his I tapers from the posl-ollicu in St. Mary's.— As this mail is weekly, our habit has always been to Ibid the three country papers issued during lh.it time, together ; plueing the direction on tho external one n* lone. Those without n superscription, it appears, ore never received. We would request from tlm I'ostmas- tcr, that thu integrity ofour packages should Im prevorv- ed, tuul our subscriber will not then have cause for n»m- pl.iint. This is tlm only instance in which our method of tbr warding papers by this mail, has resulted in irre- g'llai ity m receiving them, TO THeTpUBMO. I was informed last evening hy a friend, that there was ani editorial remnrlt in the Savannah Republican, under date ol the 3d November, inst which cast some severe reflections on me, as Post Master of this place. I did uot see the remark until too lute to make answer by last Saturday’s mail. Annexed is a certificate of some of the old and respectable subscribers to papers, which arc rimmed at tins office, among which is Robert Staf- ford, hsq. tho “old subscriber from Cumberland Island" alluded to in the remark of the Editor ofthe Republican, under date of the 3d nisi. I bolievo Mr. Stafford to he the only subscriber to tho Republican on Cumberland Island, and he has not yet intimated to mo that the fault ol his nut rccwving his papers regularly originated at this offico. All the netrapnners for Cumberland Island are taken out hy a single individual, who, no doubt, uses every precaution in forwarding them. Yet it is easy to iiiiagiuo, that when thirty or forty papers urc mixed to gether, immo with the subscriber's mime endorsed and www wtthput any direction, (which is the case with two out of three oftho Republicans,) should bn misplaced mn after they were taken from ilm Post Office. I do know ilmt all thu papers thut cornu directed to this office, are delivered to the persons to whom they are directed, or their ngt nts. ’ Tho Editor of dm Republican can rest assured, that the integrity or his packages will, (a* they over have been) be preserved.

GENERAL REMARKS. The Inspectors will not attempt to disguise the pleasure it gives them, to be able to an nounce to tho friends oftho system, that thoy have not found it necessary to call for any purt oftho appropriation made by tho last Legislature for the use of tho Penitentiary. They have not found it nocessary in the nine months that have passed, and they have always been confident tlnit if they could con duct it on its own resources to the end oftho third quarter, there would be no difficulty about getting through tho last quarter. Even under its.present very defective orga nization, they aro inclined to bolievo that, with patience and unceasing attention, thoy could make the- institution sustain itself.— But were tho improvements which have been made at Auburn, Sing Sing and Hartford, in troduced here, there would bo no doubt about the result. It is proper to remark that tho salary of the Physician has boon continued at §1500.. The subject was brought before the Legislature last year, and a clause was, by the House of RnprocohtttUves, attached to the bill to change the inode of appointing tho officers of the institution, fixing his salary at 8300; bv the Sennte this clause was rejected; the bill was returned to the House, and passed by it as amended by tho Scnntc. These circum stances, the Inspectors conceived, furnished a clear indication of the intention of tho Legislature to permit the salary to remain at what it was the last year, that’is 8500. The Inspectors have nothing more to add, except to repeat that, in their behalf, tho in stitution 1ms suffered to a large amount, du ring the year, for the want of well seasoned timber. Tho Inspectors have, for the rea sons stated in their second report, patiently submitted to these inconveniences, feeling well assured however, that under different circumstances in this regard, they would have hoen able to show on their balance sheet, a much larger profit than that now exhibited.

As fo contracts, tho Inspectors refer to their former reports.

OF THE STOCK. An inventory of tho raw materials, manu factured arfires, and tool* on hand, on the 30th September is submitted as required by law.

After a resolution had boon complied with, requiring every planter to hand to the Chair man and Secretary, an exact statement of the number of acres planted, and quantity of Cotton gathered, that they might ascertain thonverugo product of the whole crop, it was found that only seventy six pounds have been made per acre, and that ample allowance has been made in this average, for the very small quantity that still remains in some of the fields to he picked. Resolved, That it is the unanimous opinion of this meeting, from information obtained from the inuin, where tho crops are always more subject to frost, and havo consequently been more injured, that the average will not bo as great as on tho Island.
