Wo Invite attention to the card of D. D. French, \ Esq., In another column in this day’s Georgian. Mr. French has been engaged for many years at hotel- Steeping, and is well and favorably known os the pro- . prietorof French’s Hotel, Norfolk, Vo. He has re cently opened the Irving House, in Washington, D.C., • t and we deem it bnt justice to state, that under his supervision it has beeorao one of the cleanest, most convenient, and best regulated hotels in the United States. Southerners visiting Washington would do well to stop at the.Irving. ' The Steamship Augusta and the Baric 8. E. ^ Baxter. In noticing the recent relief afforded the S. E. Bax■ ter, by the Revenue Cutter, Hamilton, and her arri val in this port under charge of Lieut. Morrison ; her master, Capt. Darnaby, being prostrate with inflam matory rheumatism, we stated: “On Wednesday, P. M., as related to us, the signal of distress was made to the steamship Augusta, Capt. Lyon- from this port for New York, which was noticed from the steamer, but she kept on her way without inquiring into the nature of the case. Of this we are at a toss to account, it being so entirely contrary to the well known character of Capt. Lyon and the officers under his command; and wo doubt not will be satisfactorily explained, at least we hope so.”- » Yesterday Captain Lyon, of tbo steamship Augus ta, called on ns to say that at the time signals were exchanged between the steamer and the bark, be was himself at dinner, and was afterwards informed by tbo second officer, then on duty, that signals btfd been exchanged with a vessel in the distance which he was unable to make ont, but which he supposed was a packet dealrooa of being reported—not having the most distant Idea that sho was a vessel in distress— Owing, doubtless, to tbo inexperience of those ma* king the signal on the bark, their purpose was entire ly misapprehended. Those personally acquainted with Captain Lyon would need no explanation of this matter, well know ing the rules that govern his conduct as a seaman and gentleman, but to those who are not acqnaintcd with him it is alike duo to them as well os to himself; and one which We are happy in having it in our pow- .hr to make. t .• • • Ifew Ocean Highway. Mr. W. L. Mackenzie, of Canada, has published a letter in the New York Tribune, commending a new route for the transatlantic highway travel between Earope and America. His plan is to construct a Rail- ' toad from QaabeQ to the coast of Labrador, north of Newfoundland. If this were carried oat Liverpool would be bat five days’ from Labrador, and a line or telegraph thence north of the Qulf and River St. Lawrence, would bring Europe and America within five days’ distance of each other at ail seasons o( the year. The route would, however, bo none the eas iest—Mackenzie describes the country between Quo bee and the harbor on tho coast of Labrador as full of vast plains—valleys of great extent—mountains, ono of two thousand feet high—rocky coasts, barren sands, immense cod and other fisheries, plenty of granite, abundance of land and water fowl, puffins, gnnnets, galls, elder ducks, cormorants, all sorts of • , northern climate fare. The Milton (Fla.) Courier, states that a meeting is to be held in the town of Miiton on Wednesday, the eighth day of Jane, for the purpose of discussing a Railroad construction, the terminus of which shall bo upon the waters of Pensacola Bay, and of appointing a committee to devise ways for bringing this great enterprise to a successful and advantageous issue. Milton is a small town at the mouth of Middle River, where that stream enters Pensacola bay at the head of Yellow Water bay. Pensacola bay, the reader wilt remember, is terminated on tho north by two bays, formed by two rivers. Tho eastern is called Escambia,.and the western Yellow Water bay. At the head of the latter stands the town of Milton, a site - perhaps, aa suitable as any other for a Railroad termi nus to the waters of Pensacola. From Texas.—The particulars of the news from Tens, brought by the steamship Louisiana, at New Orleans, to the 37th May, is of very little interest, in addition to what we have already given by telegraph. The gold fever has entirely abated—the crop proving entirely too thin to pay for harvesting. The storm that was so destructive at Galveston a . few weeks since, appears to have extended to several parte of the interior, doing much damage, pBooW for edbecriptlon to the stock of the Galveston, Houston and Henderson Railroad Company, have been opened In Galveston. Proposals aro Invited for the construction of the several sections of the road between Galveston and Houston. The Civilian un derstands that Professor Forsbey, chief engineor of the company, will soon commence the survey of the rente between Houston and Henderson. . .. Antl-BIbU Convention. Another reach has been takbn by tho fanatics of the North. A motley gathering, terming themselves an Anti-Bible Convention, was in session in Hartford, Conii., daringlast week. Says the New York Herald: - “The abolitionists, free sollere, spiritualists,and strong-minded women, of this region, have at length 4 Into a flair w»y of exhibiting themselves In their _ Jtim dfawn W llfe^n the Wr ortd, talrae ite.lqoal habitation from ouk owa'l and our own immediate section.

Perhaps yon will allow me to enliven my dull prose with a fow lines of his beautifol poetry. After describing the Bufferings of the poor In London at that time, reverting to tho condition or the inhab itants of his imaginary Auburn, and asking whether they probably shared tbo woes he had Just painted, he that answers his question s “ AUI no. to distant dimes, a dreary scene, Where half the convex world obtrudes between; Through torrid tracks, with fklnting steps Uiojr go, Where wild Attains murmurs to their woe, Far different there from all thatcharmed before.

Tho notlco oi Mr. George Peabody's dinner to the American Minister, iu London, and the accompany ing sketch of tho banker’s biography, which we pub lish iu to day’s American, cannot full to Interest scores of our citizens who know this liberal gentle- mnn. Tho life of Mr. Peabody ia a useful lesson which we are glad to have the opportunity to impress on tho minds of onr people, ns far as tho intluenco of our Journal may extend. His youth was passed in care ful industry which won ita way not only to compe tence but wealth in a country whoso paths to fortune are open to all. His manhood shows the wise use of wealth, acquired not so much by close economy os by Judicious enterprise tlmt displayed the higher charac teristics of intellect. He neither gained nor hoarded his treasure in order to make'riches the great object of existence, bat, when fortune smiled npou him, he remembered the cause of science, literature, art, and humanity in his native land, and strove to aid it by unselfish generosity. His hospitable Aonie, in Bug- land, is familiarly known .to American travellers.— Whenever this hospitality was exercised t» vrivate, the recipient felt at once his extreme cordiality but, within the last threo or four years, there have been more public displays of this virtue, in which we are quite sensible that national feelings were mixed witli tho social rite. Mr. Peabody’s entertainments have assembled, in tho English capital, large num bers of our most estimable citizens, who wore met by corresponding classes of British subjects. The good feeling of the two nations was cemented by on inter change of liberal sentiments. From all parts of our country—North, South, East, West—our people have mingled around this board, enjoying foreign luxuries, foreign music, and foreign stylo in a foreign land; yet, amid oil the splendor of tno festive scene, wo are confident there was not a guest who did not feel that the hearts of the company were fused by tho Ameri canism of the generous host.

Arthur Spring, the Murderer. Philadelphia, May 30,1853. Dear Sir .-—Through tho kindness of ono of the of ficers of tho Moyameusing prison, I to-day Bpcnt Borne moments in the cell of Arthur Spring, the condemned murderer. On entering the cell we found him seated on his bunk, by the side of ids spiritual adviser, who happened at the time to be making bis morning visit, the clergyman holding in his-bund a copy of tho Bible. There were two chairs In tho cell, and by invitation of Spring himself we took seats, and he readily enter ed into conversation. In reply to tho remark that he was looking very well, he said bo foil more and more chfierful os uo approached the grave. To.the question of tho writer, who was ignorant of the precise time of the execution, ho replied that “a week more next Friday is the day.” He then alluded to the report that he committed a murder at Halifax some years sinco, and said tbatitwus another person of the same naroo, and that ho knew him well.sc. The huge iron chain, one end made fast to a staple in tho tloor, and the • other about his ancle, prevented him from leaving bis seat, though from accident or design on his part the chain was nearly covered by some of the beaclothcs. From tho fiendish nature of his crimes, and the likeneBsos, or what purported to bo likenesses, in the newspapers, I expected to seo a man with a savage nud desperate expression of countenance; but in this 1 was strahgeiy disappointed. He has rather of an intelligent, thoughtful look, with an eye entirely at rest, and indicating the most perfect self-possession. In short, he is about tho last person who would bo se lected in a promiscuous assemblage as the author of tho horrid deeds which have been attributed to and proved upon him. Ho still persists in charging bis son with the horrible murder for which he is soon to suffer death. Correspondcnco of the Journil of Commerce. Unties on Spwilih Tonnage, &c„ Washington, Tuesday, May 31. You will probably see. in a fow days, a Treasury circular In reference to the differential duties on Span ish tonnage, and abolishing the same for tho future. Mr. Meredith had suspended the collection of these discriminating duties, but Mr. Hodge restored them. The subject was brought prominently to tho notice of Congress at tho late session, and particularly by the resolution and speech of Mr. Mallory, the Senator from Florida. Very recently, tho attention of the present Secretary of the Treasury was called to the subject by Southern merchants engaged in tbo trade with Cuba, through Mr. Harto, editor of tho Charles ton Mercury, who has spent somo weeks here for this purpose. Meanwhile, a correspondence was entered into with the Spanish Minister on the subject, and ho expressed a great desire on the part of bis govern ment, that the differential dnties Bhould bo established. Thus, in adopting this measure, a courtesy is shown to the Spanish Government, while it promotes our own commercial interests. We may now expect, very soon, to seo Spanish vessels in our ports. The Secretary of tho Treasury has decided to re open the contract for tho material for building the Charleston Custome House. Messrs. Leonard A Dakin, of New York, were tho originnl contractors. But the contract reserved to the Secretary tho right to change the material to marble for the superstructure. Mr. Guthrie, having decided to adopt marble, has limited the existing contract to tho supply of granite for the basement, and the advertisement will appear forth with, inviting proposals for furnishing the marble. Marbio Is hereafter to bo adopted oy the Govern ment for all public ediiioes, here or elsewhere, instead of granite orBandstone. To the climate of tho South, particularly, marbio Is much better adapted than granite : for in a humid climate, granite soon be comes rusty and moss-covered. It ia suggested that possibly the President will ap point Gov.^Iarcy as Minister to France, as soon aa the Governor shall have completed the task of organ izing the Government for the ensuing four years, and -regulating our foreign policy for the same term. Governor Marcy will, In this case, leave nothing for his successor to do beyond tho mere routino of offii Au action has lately been tried at Guildhall, Lon don, before Baron Alderson, in which acertuinMr. Gibbs was plaintiff, and Col. Fremont defendant. In this suit, say the London papers, tho following facts were disclosed: " Colonel Fremont had led tho American forces in tho conquest of California, and having accomplished that object found himself in want of money for the support of his troops. In this exigency ho applied to a Mr. Hutman.a trader at Ban Francisco, who ad- vlnced him $19,500 on four bills of oxchange, drawn by the Colonel upon the Secretary of Slate, at Wash ington. Congress, however, did not vote the sums in time to meet tho bills. A great deal of correspond- enco afterwards took place between tbo parties, and eventually Hutman, who was absolutely ruined by the loss of the money, passed the bills to the plaintiff, an eminent South American merchant, who advanced him money upon them. The question now was, whether the bills were to bo paid with Washington Interest, at 6 per cent., or with iuterest at San Fran cisco, which was 30 per cent.? If Hutman had ob tained punctual payment or the bills, he could have invested the money in goods, and sold them at a profit in Saa Francisco of from 30 to 50 per cent. But If, on the other hand, they had been returned to him at San Francisco, he conld have only taken them up by borrowing money at 30 por cent., which was the rate of interest cnarged at that place. The bills were payable at Washington, and the Attorney General now submitted that, although the contract was to pay at Washington, the drawer of the bills would bo enti tled to damages for the broach of the contract, and that such damage would amount to the sum now claimed.” Mr. Baron Alderson said tbo question was mice one to dientw* Petrified Man.—The Morris (111.) Yeoman states, that not long since, while some men were digging in a coal bank, near the canal, they exhumed a body of a man in a perfect state of petrifaction. From the corduroy cloth in which the legs were encased, the cords and seams of which areporfoctly defined, it U supposed to be the body of one of tho Irish laborers engaged In tho construction of tha canal. Tha limbs are nearly perfect, and aro completely transformed to jails, and the perfecting of a system of ednoatlon for criminals, bnt left the education and proper up bring ing of the children of honest poor men to obtriur and chance? .Will It be believed, that though the charity-achools of England and the endowed oolleges of the nation possessed an annual income of from four to five mil lion* sterling, this revenno was devoted mainly to the education or the children or the rich, and furnlihlng rloh sinecure offices for gentlemen: while the chil dren of the poor, lor whom these charities were he- queathed by ploas men, were left chiefly to the edu cation or the streets and the back lanes? ■ Will it be believed, that tho average pay of a po- llcomau who looks after criminals was, In 1852, one- third more than the average pay of the sohoolmaster appointed to educate immortal minds ? Will it 1m believed, that the 14,000 armed police employed In Ireland received aonnal salaries of about thirty pounds a year, and that the 5,359 teachers of youtn under tho Irish National Board of Education, received an average salary of only fourteen pounds a year. Will it be believed, that the British Judges got each from £4,000 to £5,000 ayear for trying felons, and the British Astronomer Royal waa paid with a fifth part of tho sura—or no more than the salary of the deliverer of votes at tho House of Commons. Will it be believed that while we paid without ob- jectlou several millions a year for arresting, trying and condemning criminals, we could not agree to provide one-hair ot the funds so to educate men as to prevent their becoming criminals ? Will it be believed that all the large towns of Great Britain paid more for the conviction and confinement of juvenile criminals than they contributed for the education of children bo as to prevent their becoming criminals? Will it bo believed, that Great Britain excelled all other nations in working up raw materials—such as iron, cotton, flax and wool—into wondrously beauti ful fabrics, hut left the raw material of humanity in tho most neglected state that she devoted infinite pains and skill to the perfection of machines of all kinds, but left Man, of all other machines, the least improved? Will it bo belloved, that it could be said in the House of Peers, of London.—the scat and centre of modern civilization, that there werein that city “100- 000 children who had received noeducation whatever, and that, with one or two cqceptions. England was tho least educated country in Europe r” And, will it bo believed, that another noble lord, now a peer, could also have said in the House of Com mons without contradiction, “ I know that out of tho pale of tha church, beyond the limits of the • denomi nations,’there is a vast, destitute, neglected mass fes tering in our streets and alleys ; with every sight and sound of contamination choking tho accessess to eve ry sense,-without and idea of duty to earth or heav en,—upon whom no word of instruction ever falls, upon whom no breath of love ever settles .—unclaimed by Lambeth, unkuown to Geneva, unconverted by Rome,”—and that about such a time, the ladies and gentlemen of England were peering across the wide ocean for objects on which to bcBtow their tender philanthoropv ? No, no l These things will not bo believed some fifty years hence 1 An Exciting Contest Between Northern and Southern Horses. An exciting trotting match came off yesterday at the Union Race Course, on Long Island, which waa nearly equal to tho great race between the Southern horse Pcytona and a Northern horse known as Fash ion, in the year 1843. On this occasion, $4,000 was the stake, and the contest three three-mile heats. At 3 o’clock, P. M., there were some ten thousand per sons on the ground, and tho following horseB were entered : Kemble Jackson—(Drlvon by Hiram Woodruff.) O’Blenis Pet—(Driven by H. Jones.) Boston Girl—(Driven by George Nelson.) Honest John—(Driven by Geo. Spicer.) Iolo—(Driven by C. Brooks.) Tho favorite steed at the start was O’Blenis, and even bets outside were freely taken that this horse would be the winner against the field. The first heat was won by tho following timo: First mile 2 minutes and 41 seconds; second mile, 2.39&; third mile, 2.42J. Half an hour elapsed and tho second heat then enmo off, which was accomplished in 8 minutes and 4( se conds, by the stallion Kemble Jackson, which was ac cordingly declared victor by the jutlgcs amid great excitement. Each horse was attached to wagons weighing 250 pounds, and the above time is said to bo beyond any precedent in a three-milo trotting racd. pwireroturaSii m*y«? PHILBRICK k BELL.

CniOAOO, Jnne 2. Tho steam tng Eclipse burst her boiler in this port yesterday. Tho explosion was terrific, tearing the boat entirely to pieces, killing a fireman and boy, and severely injuring tho engineer, cook, wheelman and one deck hand. Tho captain was also slightly injur ed. Tho boilers were new, and tho boat which waa own ed by E. K. Blackwell,of Buffalo and Captain 8. M. Johnson, of Chicago, was valued at $10,000. Engi neer’s life is despaired of; ho was dragged out of the engine room after tho explosion terribly scalded. of the creditors 'of tho late firms of Spence, Cocio rane ft Co., and Spcnco ft Co., at Liverpool, for tho purpose of receiving from James Snouce payment in full of ?ho debts due to them by these firms when they stopped payment. On receiving tho money, amounting in the aggregate to £18,477 16s. 4d., from which Mr. Spence nod been legally discharged, the creditors passed a resolution of thanks, and ordered tho presentation to him of '* a testimonial suitable to tho estimation in which the meeting holds his con duct.” For this purposo flvo per cent, on the amount received by each creditor, wus appropriated : which would raaKo the pecuniary value of the testimonial, including the cost ot manufacture, about £1,000. It will be a pleasant object for him to look upon id his declining years, and a valuable legacy to his chil dren. Interesting Relic.—Gen. Kosiusco received from his sovereign the King of Poland, a little before the destmetion of that kingdom, a golden cross, beauti fully enamelled of the Ordor of St. Stanislaus. On ono Bide of this cross aro the letters 8. A. U. P., the Initials of Stanislaus Augustus Rex Polonice, with the figures 1792. On the reverse are tho words “ Vi- renti Militari.” When Kosiusco was last in this country, being on ono occasion at Elizabethtown, N. J., and being In formed that a son of Shepard Kollock, Esq., of that place, was named after him, he presented the lad this golden cross, which is still preserved in the family. A New Mode of Firino Artillery.—Col. Tol- cott, of tho Ordnance Corps, reports favorably upon a now method of discharging artillery, invented by Joshua Shaw. Ho says, it combines several requisites not heretofore obtained, namely, 1st, a primer truly mater proof, ono that will bear submerging for hoars without injury to its forceor effect; 2d, a guard which protects the primer from being exploded until the sig nal is given; and 3d, it furnishes the means for ex tracing a pike, whenever such a misfortune may be fall the piece, with ease and certainty in one minute, and that without exploding the gun or incurring the slightest injury. Besides these very great advanta ges over ail the modes In use for firing guns, we learn that it possesses the peculiar advantage of accom- plishingit with or without a lock, the destruction of which often disables n, gun In active service. Cure for Croup.—As soon as the first symptoms ore discovered, apply cold water suddenly and freely to the neck and chest with a sponge, then lay a cloth wet with cold water on the chest and cover closely with cotton batting—nothing else will do as wetl and the breath will be instantly relieved. Givo the patient plenty of cold water to drink, and cover it warm in bed. and it will sleep Bweetly. There is no dauger of taking cold, and the dreadful effects of an emetic are all avoided.

Trying One’s Temper.—" During the recent trip- of tho Eclipse from New Orleans/’ says the Louis ville Journal, " a young gentleman, who had just got married, came onboard at Memphis to engage passage for himself and wife, but. before bo cuuTd get ashore again, the boat had shoved off, and he round himself going up the Mississippi at the rate of twenty miles por hour, his lady-love standing at the wharf and witnessing the distressing sljjht. In vain did he appeal to the captain to land ... g f r .. . fm, deputing ituatlon and sufferings as well as id him?’ f his own "tbo wife he left behind him/’ in tho most feeling terms. At Paducah, the Eclipse took a boat in tow laden with wood. On it he escaped, and Intended to hail tho first steamer for Memphis. From his condi tion when he left the Eclipse, the passengers were of opinion that he could not survive the shock forty- eight hours longer.” * A Bright Prospect.—Lt. Maury soys, "Japan is to bo opened to our commerce ; China Ib to be Chris tianized. with her millions ; our people are to hay, sell, and get gain; Australia is to be a mighty nation, and a good customer; and all the islands or tho Pa- ciflo are to attract our ships, bail our flog as tbo em blem of freedom, and court friendly alliances with us the champion by example of tho rights of man.” Sand Key Liout*—The structure now in process of erection on Sand Key, Gulf of Florida, to replace that destroyed by tho hurricane of 1846, is founded upon seventeen iron piles, covering a square of fifty feet at the has. 1 and tapering to twenty feet at the top. The light U a fixed white light, varied by flashes. The focal plane is ono hundred and ten feet above low water. From an elevation fifteen feet above tho level of the sea, this light ought to be seen at a distance of nearly seventeen nautical miles. It will probably be exhibited ia the coarse of the ensuing month of June, of which, however, due notice will be given.—Fla. Republican. At a meeting held in Philadelphia on Tuesday night $10,000 were subscribed toward the bulldlnj fund of the American Sunday School Union, anu committees appointed to obtain additional subscrip tions. New and extensive buildings for the use of tbo Union are to bo erected in the vicinity of Tenth and Chestnut-streets. Tho Central Railroad of Virginia is being pressed forward with energy. AU the unlet work on the route from Staunton to Clifton Forge, and from tho latter point to Covington, Is about to be placed under contract. The Richmond Enquirer says that the moat confident hopes are entertained that in leu than two yearn the oars will be running from Rich mond to Covington, interrupted only by the portago at the Tunnel. • tat or ttonmeu o( tolly rtxWUmtobyto-p.pOTor and so can any one else who comes here with that termination, but as I said before, 1 will solicit no one to come here.” Under dato of March I4tb, 1853, Moore writes as follows: Friend Walker:—Wo are all in good health and prosperity. * * * I havo more than I can do daily and tlmt to my profit. My income here is nearly $109 per month. I attend to the immigrants nt tho Vir ginia reception hoase, for which I get $42,50 per month, hut this docs not interfere with my private business.” He then alludes to his family an 1 friends, all or whom are Bpoken of as being in good health and engaged iu profitable business. “ John Bowie is the only one of the expedition who is not doing well. He is working about by day’s work for other people.” (The expedition spoken of left here in the bark Libe ria Packet, in 1851, and numbered upward of sixty persons.] “ politics run high here now. as our Pres idential election comes off next May. The nominees are : Samuel Benedict, for President, and E. J. Ray, for Vice President; and J. J. Roberts, for President, and 8. A. Rcnsou, for Vice President.” * * * “ You know mo well—come out here and you will never regret it. and come at once. Your six months provisions will give you a sufficient start. I only brought $16 with mo, and after eighteen months I am worth some hundreds, clear of all demands.” In relation to the condition of the immigrants the other letters corroborate the statements of Messrs. Johns and Moore, and several of tho writers are anx ious to have their friends follow them. COMMERCIAL. New Yorkers Ubiquitous. The Philadelphia North American discourses very sensibly on somo of the peculiarities and business characteristics of our citizcni. It suspects that though New Yorkersare to bo encountered by dozens through out all tho Mississippi valley, there is another object in view than mere pleasure peeking.—that they are " walking and talking advertisements,” attracting hither au immense western trade. Tho Gazette says " Throughout that vast region of country to which the rival markets of the Atlantic are cngerly looking for the trade that is destined certainly to determine their relative importance and power when our foreign commerce will havo sunk into comparative insignifi cance, this city, in the persons of its citizens, is scarcely known nt all, while New York may almost be said to be domiciliated in every village in the Mis sissippi valley, and to havo a speaking acquaintance with its whole population. Go where you will west ward, from the lakes to tho gulf, and you will run against a dozen or more of the wide-nwake,go-nhead, ubiquitous cosmopolitans from Gotham. It is not possible to miss or mistake them. They do not move about like travellers " incog,” but take special pains to notify everybody as to who they are and where they aro from. On their trunks and the registers of hotels, their names and the place they bail from are written out In clear, legible characters; and whether yon meet them In railway trains and steambonts, in the counting house of tho western merchant, in the wayside or tho town Inn, tho per petual theme of their discourse is tho " Empire City” —its glories and magnificence. They are. in short, walking and talking advertisements of New York, through whose glowing and graphic descriptions, people ut a distance gain grand notions of that me tropolis, magnify it in imagination a thousand fold, belioiro it a huge curiosity worth crossing praries and mountains even to get a look at; and so multitudes from every part of the wide region between this and the Pacific ocean, aro being drawn yearly to it as to wards the great commercial capital of tho United States. No other portion of the continent, either nt home or abroad, is heard of so constantly, spoken of so par ticularly, seen so much in tho persons of its own in habitants, its sailing vessels, steamships, agencies, advertisements, and all the varied evidences ofwoaltli, populouaucss, and enterprise, as New York. This omnipresence of tho place, this universal notoriety, is what is doing so much, In combination with its Immediate resources and energies, to crowd it, at all times, with strangers, to build its mammoth hotels and stores, theatres and opera houses; to multiply and extend Us railway and ocean steam lines; to fill it with men of large means and large minds; to make it the great centre of American trade, art, industry, social luxury and private speculation. The hold which New York magnificence and splen dor havo got upon tho fancy of tho whole of the inte rior, is exemplified in an infinite variety of ways.—. One which strikes the eusteru man, who is going west and south, with peculiar force, partly because of its ridiculous pretension, is to seo nt points along the thoroughfares of travel and in every town or village of tho States, signs and houses bearing in great black capitals, "New York Goods,” "New York Store,” " New York Company,” etc. These things arc, of course, tho devices of shrewd traders to catch custom, but thev indicate tho prevalence of that popular feel ing aim conceit respecting the magnitude and pre eminence of tho " Empire City,” on which the sharp country dealer finds its profitable to play, and disclose a-chief element of tho rapid progress of our nval In her domestic traffic. There can bo no doubt that the itinerant habit of New Yorkers, which keeps thousands of men contin ually scattered throughout the Union, and that bravo, earnest, and practical business sense which induces them, wherever they go, to let the world know who they are, and to mix frankly and cordially with it for the sake of social and commercial fellowship, have done, and are doing as much for tho prosperity of their city as any other one influence. Mutiny and Murder at Sen. Baltimore, June 2. It is reported, although there seems to bo somo doubts on the subject, that the Captain and Passen gers of tho Hhip Reindeer, from Boston for Valparai so, bad been murdered by tho crew, who had escaped to Montevideo, where they were all arrested. Death of a Missionary.—The Boston Traveller, of Friday, says intelligence has just been received at the Missionary rooms in that city, that Rev. G. Dou ble. Missionary of the American Baptist Missionary Union, in Assam, died of cholera, March 23d, at Nowgong. Mr. Dobbin, the Secretary of the Navy, left Wash ington on Wednesday evening, to visit his homo in North Carolina. It la expected that he will bo ab sent about two weoks. Mr. Davis, the Secretary of War. will in the moan time take charge of the Navy Department. At Marseilles the melancholy event of tho death of Vico President King was noticed by appropriate de monstrations at the American Consulate and by tho American shipping in port.
