When the main body ofthe army was disbanded at Newburab, and Sewerah aolmem were bidding a parting farewell to each other, LleutoCol, Cochran, an aged solder of theKew Haxnpehlre line, remarked, with tears eyes, as he shook hands with tho Baron: 7 " por myself, I coaid stand it t but my wife and danghtewnre in the garret of that wretched terern, and I have ho means of removing them." 44 Oomo Jcome,” said tho Baron, “don’t give way thns. I will jjay my respects to ITra. Cochran and ^Wherfthegood old soldier left them, their coun tenances were warm with gratitude—lor be left there tonancesv *ltthne of the Rhode Island regiments were several companies of black troops who had served through the whole war, and their bravery and discipline were unsurpassed. The Baron observed one of these poor negroeaon tho wharf, at Newburgh, apparently in neat distress. “What to the matter, brother soldier t” “ Why, master Baron, I want a dollar to got home with, now the Congress has no further use for me.” The Baron was absent for a few moments, and then returned with a silver dollar whloh ho had borrowed. Th^negro rocelvedUwith ioy^hailed a sloop which was pasting down the river to New York, and aa he reaoned the dock, took off his hat and said— “God-Mesa yon, Master Baron 1” These are'only single illustrations ofcondition or the army at the dose ortho war. . Ington Escrwaa v4*w •* tbouUwe of his farewell ad dress to the army at BoCky Hill, in November, 1793: “ And being now about to conclude these, his last R nblio orders, to take his nltlmate leave in a short meofthd military character, and to bid a final adieu to the armies he has so long had the honor to com mand,’he can only again oner, in their behalf, bis recommendations to their oountry, aud his prayer to the God of armies.” *• May ample justice be dono them here, and may the choicest Of heaven’s favor, both here and hereaf ter, attended those who, nnder divine auspices, have seonrod Innumerable blessings for others.’ r “ With these wishes and this benediction, the Com- mander-in-Cbief to about to retire from service. Tho curtain of separation will soon be drawn, and the military scenes to him will be closed forever.” The closing of the “military scenes” lam about to relate. New York bad been occupied by Washington on the 25th of November. A few days afterwards, bo notified the President of Congress—which body was then in session at Annapolis, in Maryland—that as the war had now closed, ho should consider it his duty to proceed thence and surrender to that body the commission which ho had received irom them seven years before. Tho morning of tho 5th of December, 1783, was a sadandheavy one to the remnant of tho American army in the city of New York. Tho noon of that day was to witness the farewell of Washington—ho was to bid adieu to his military comrades forever. The offleors who had been with him in solemn council, the private who had fought and bled in the “ heavy fight,” under his orders, were to hear his commands • no longer. The manly form and dignified counten- , ance or the “great captain ’’was henceforth to live in their memories. As the hour of noon approached, the whole garri- son at tho request of Washington himself, was put in motion, ana marched down Broad street to Fran cis’ tavern, his headquarters. Ho wished to take leave of private Boldiers alike with tho officers, and bid them all adiu. His favorite light Infantry were drawn up in the line facing inwards, through Pearl street, to tho foot of Whitehall, where a barge was In readiness to convey him to Powlo’s Hook. Within the dining room of tho tavern were gather ed the Generals ana field officers to tako their fare well Assembled there were Knox, Green, Clinton. Steu ben, Gates, and others, who had served with him faithfully aud truly In the “ tented field but alas i where were others that bad entered the war with him seven years before? Their bones crumbled in the soil from Canada to Georgia. Montgomery bad S ielded up his life at Quebec, Wooster fell at Dan- ury, Woodhull was barbarously murdered while a f irisoner at the battle on Long Island, and Mercer ell mortally woonded at Princeton; tho brave and chivalrio Laurens, alter displaying the most heroio courage in the trenches of Yorktown, died in a tri fling skirmish in South Carolina; the brave but ec centric Lee was no longer living,and Putnam, like a helpless child was..Btretched upon tho bed of sick ness. Indeed, the battle field and time bad thinned the ranks which entered with him in tho conflict of Independence. Washington entered tho room—the hour of separa tion had come. As he raised bis eye and glanced on tho faces of those assembled, a tear coursed down his chcok, and his vqice was tremulous as he saluted them. Nor was he alone. Men “ albeit, unused to the melting flood,” stood around him, whose uplifted hands to cover their brows, told that tho tear, whioh they in vain attempted to conceal, bespoke the an guish they coaid not hide. After a moment’s conversation, Washington called for a glass of wine. It was brought him. Turning to the officers, he thus addressed them: “ With a heart full of love and gratitude, I now tako ray final leave or you. I most devotedly wish your latter days may bo as prosperous and happy as your former ones have been glorious and honorable.” Ho tbeu raised tbe glass tools lips, and added, “ I , cannot come to each of you to tako my leave, but shall bo obliged to you Ir each of you will take mo « ... « E. W. ChuUtoi of ( J„h» .. by tbe hand.' Goneral Knox, who stood nearest, burst into tears, and advanced, incapable of utterance. Washington grasped him by the nand, and embraced him. The officers came up successively and took an affectionate leave. No words were spoken, but all was tho “si lent eloquence of tears.” What were more words at suchasceno? Nothing. It was tho feeling of tbe heart—thrilling though unspoken. When the last officer had embraced him, Washing ton left the room, followed by his comrades, and pass ed through tbe line of light infantry. His step was slow and measured, his head uncovered, and tears flowing thick and fast, as he looked from side to side at the veterans to whom he now bid adien forever.— Shortly an event occurred more touching than ail tho rest. A gigantic soldier who had stood by his side at Trenton, stepped forth from tho ranks and extend ed his hand. “ Farewell, my beloved General, farewell.” Washington grasped bis band, In convulsive emo tion in both of bis. All disclplino was now at an end. Tho officers could not restrain tbe men as they rushed forward to take Washington by the hand, and tho vio lent sobsaud tears of tnesoldiers told bow deeply engraved upon their affections was tho love of their commander. At length Washington reached tho bargo at White hall, and entered it At the first stroke of tho oars he rose, and turning to the companions or his glory, by waving his bat, bade them a silent adieu. Their answer was only in tears ; and tho officers and men. with glistening eyes, watched the receding boat till tho form of their noble commander was lost sight of in the distance. Contrast tbe farewell of Washington to his army at Whlteba|l;in 1793, and the farewell of Napoleon, to his army at Fontainbleu, in 1815. Tho one had ac complished every wish or bis heart. His noble exer tion nad pebteved tbe independence of bis country, and he longed to retire to the bosom of bis home.— His ambition was satisfied. He fongbt for no crown, no sceptre, bat for equality and the mntnal happiness of his fellow beings. No tint of tyranny, no breath of slander, no whisper of duplicity, marred the fair proportions of bis publio or private life; but “ Hivu » man, taka him for all In all, Wa ne’er shall look npon bis like again.” Tho other great soldier was the disciple of selfish ambition. He raised the iron weapon of war to crash, only that he might rale. What to him were tbe cries of tbo widows and orphans 1 He passed to a throne fellow men for the aggrandisement of personal glory. Enthusiasm points with fearful wonder to the name of Napoleon, whilst Justice, benevolence, freedom, and all tbe concomitants which constitute tho trae happiness of man, shed almost a divine halo around tho name and ebaraoter of George Washington, Diath ik ora Offich.—We give this morning the sorrowful intelligence of another calamity in our of fice. in tbe death of Milton Arthur, anativeof Spring- field, Hamilton bonnty, Mass,, and aged 26.

A Mistaxi nr tot Dark.—A few evenings since, while a gentleman of this city who wears a profusion of dark hair, and to of dark complexion, was walking with a lady ion tile avenne, be was accosted by a watchman, who seized him by tbe collar, and said that be had no business out after hours. “Aftef tpori,” exclaimed tbe airested gentleman, in astonishment. “ what do yon mean 7” “ Don’t yon know, yon blaok rascal, that It to agaiust the law for negroes to be ont after 10 o’clock, in Washington, and now it to near 11 o'clock.

A few years iat fram 50 cents down Parties In Georgia* Any person unacquainted with tho state of parties In Georgia, who would tako the trouble to read tho dally eflbslona of tho “ Conservative,” “ Union Con servative,” “Independent Citizens’” organs,might suppose that tho people of this Btato were engaged In a violent oontest—ono portion to break up, and tho Other to savo the Union. Nothing can bo further from the fact, Thoro novor was, we believe, a time In Georgia's history when designing politicians were more zealously bent on making false Issues and ex citing “ much ado about nothing.” Tho game is well understood. We vontaro tho remark that thoro is not a reflecting man in tho State that believes the Union to bo In danger upon any point about which tho opponents of Democratic principles are wasting so much ink and spending so much breath. If there was such danger, there would bo no particular reason for trusting to tho counsels of a party whoso wholo policy seems to bo opposition to Democratic rule, un der the profession of great love for tho Union. But this Is not all. The triumphant election of Qan. Pieuor rendered “ obsolete ” the hopes of tho Whig party, by dispensing with their services in the various offices under Government, and blasting tho prospect of preferment upon old Issues. High tariffe, lavish expenditures'of publio money, &c., Ao., all, oil have been swept away, and with them have per ished the hopes or ambitious aspirants too proud to confess tholr errors or to avow Democratio principles The administration iquetbC broken down, on account of tho evils which, as is alleged, it is bringing upon tho country. Faliiug to show wherein these evils consist, or how they exist, tho “Conservatives” ap ply harsh epithets, and if a Democratio candidate happen not to possess the “ commanding talents ” or tho “ exalted worth" or another candidate, who is, after ail, nothing but a Whig—an enemy of PiBrok’s administration—the Democrat most bo Bat aside, and is at onco branded m a"Disunionlst." But tho game will not succeed. Tho people of Georgia are too intelligent and too firm to suffer mere personal detraction to draw them from tbo path of duty. New Cotton and Rice—Tho steamer Lamar, from Augusta on Sunday lost, brought down 25 bales of now cotton consigned to 8. Solomons, .Esq. Tho first bale of8ea Island cotton received at Jacksonville was by Messrs. Bisbee & Canova on Monday the 29th ult., from the plantation of John E. Tuten, Hamilton county. Forty cents per pound were offored for it and refused. The first new bale received at Wctumpka, Ala., was last week from Col. Thornton, of that county, and sold to the Messrs. Townsend for 101-16 cents per lb. -The first bale of new cotton received this season at Georgetown, 8. C., was from tho plantation of J. B. Chandler, Esq., of Williamsburgh. Tho quality was prime, and was purchased at 12fc cents by Messrs. G. C.& W. J. Munro. The first bale of now cotton received at Oglethorpo was ou Monday, tbo 28th ult., from the plantation of Judge B. Hill, of that county, and Btored at tbe Wore-houso of Mr. G. O. Carmichael, and Bold by him to Mr. John H. Humph, at 11 cents. Since then, several other baleB havo been received In that mar ket The sloop Splendid, which arrived at this port on Sunday, from tho Satilia river, brought 1100 bushels of rough rico from the plantation of Mr. Guerrard, on Big Satilia, consigned |to Messrs.

The following letter from “ A Traveller,” address ed to tho editor of the Courier, will bo read with in terest, as furnishing practical evidence of tho pro. grass of the Brunswick Railroad. Wo were politely furnished with it for simultaneous publication with our cotemporary. Wo shall certainly take pleasure in recording all such evidences of good faith on the part of the projectors of this enterprise, and also congratulate tho people of Brunswick, and those on tho entire line of tho road, over tho advantages and benefits to be derived therefrom: 7b the Dlilor of the Savannah Courier, Sir It afford* me much gratification to comraunlcato to you, tho fact that on Tuesday the Drat trial of tho new locomotive was made over flvo mile* of the Brunswick Railroad. The citizen* and strangers In the city accepted tho pub- lie Invitation of Messrs. Collins nnd Alexander, the contrac tors, and a loigo assemblage of ladles and gentlemen, fur nished with seats on tho open car*, m&do the oxcurslon.— The Road, so fir as it is completed, exhibits a Dne specimen of tho skill and ability of tho contractors. Iron weighing sixty pounds to the yard is laid upon tho cross tioa, dis pensing with tho use of stringers, equal to a saviug of fivo hundred dollars per mile. Evory one who participated felt dclightod, and Inspirod with renewed conDdenco in tho success of this great and Important enterprise. On tho return of the cars to the de pot, Levi S. D'Lyon, Esq., who was invltod on the occasion, was particularly requested and urged to address the assem bly, to which request ho responded in an appropriate and well delivered speoeb, which was well received, and much applauded. On the succeeding day, at 4 o'clock P. M., the now and splendid steamer St. Johns, arrived in this port, in beauti ful stylo, with colors flying, nnd a flno band of music, as cending tho river for a short distance. On her arrival at the wharf, the Contractors addressed to Capt. Freeborn, a polito Invitation for himself, passengers and crow, tc accompany them on an excursion ovor so much of the Road as wa* completed, and lo take a glass of wine. The invitation was readily accepted, and with their fine band of music they rccaired to tho depot. The ladles, cltiiens and strangers in the city, assembled in greater numbers, and at the sound of the vthlstlo, the engine was again in motion. The sceno bccamo interesting and its novelty In that section of country, flllod orory heart with gladness and rejoicing. Tho rido was an easy nnd de lightful one. The day was fine, and addod much to tho pleasure of all who participated. Arrived at tho Five Mile Station, Major Edwin II. Bacon, of Savannah, being present was loudly called for, and requested to address tho people, Major Bacon then, without a moment’s notice, promptly responded in an admlrablo speoch, which elicited rounds of applause. Among the many good thing* said by him, ho remarked that 41 humbugs were generally found on paper— that there could be no humbug in laying a track of Iron rails, weighing sixty pounds to tho yard." Major Bacon en couraged, by his remarks, the Brunswick people to press In tholr enterprise, which, he said, would not only be felt by Brunswick, by Qoorgta, but tho whole world. After a delay of a few minutes, tho beautiful engine was reversed, and the party roturnod to the city, highly grati fied at their bright and growing prospects. On tho arrival of tho cars at tho depot, Colonol Edward TatnallShoftall, of Laurens county, was callod upon for an address. Unex pected as the call was to him. he readily complied, and en< tertalnod his hears in a neat, pertinent and eloquent speech, Vrhtoh was well received. Tho party then adjourned to tho Oglethorpe Ilouse, kept In One style by Mr. Wood, where . they wero refreshed with an abundance of well Iced Cham pagne, until tho moment of the boat’s departure arrived. e Many toasts were drank, nnd the party separated with but ono sentiment—Success to the Ht. Johns, the city of Bruns wick and her noble enterprise. * A Travxuxb. Democratio Meeting. In conformity with a previous understanding, the De mocracy of Camden assembled In numbers at Centcrvilisgo, on Saturday, 27th Inst., for the purpose of selecting candi dates for tho approaching Goneral Assembly. The meotlng was organised In Mr. Elsfeld’s storo, by calling to the Chair Col. J. T. plough, and appointing as Secretaries George King and James F. Caldwell.

The ballot occupying much time and not resulting In a choice, It was moved, seconded and carried, three only dls- touting, that James C.

New Steamship Line.—The Now York Courier Sr Enquirer, Bays tho steamship America, Uapt. Mitchell, was to sail from that port on Saturday last, at four o’clock P. M., for Charleston and Bavan- nab. Until her consort appears, October 1, the Ame rica Is advertised to lcavo New York overy ten days: September 3d, 13th, and 23d: Savannah on the 7th, 17tb, and 27th; and Charleston on the 8th, 18tb, and 28th September. Arrival op the Alabama.—The Alabama, Capt, ScnENOK, hence for New York on Wednesday, arriv ed all well in fifty-seven hours from wharf to wharf. Later from Texas. By tho arrival yesterday of the Btoamsbip Louisi ana, from Galveston, we have received our files of papers from that city to the 2Cth ult. The papers Boy that Galveston remains healthy, though there had been five or six deaths from yellow fever—probably of persons from New Orleans. Tho returns of tho election como in very slowly. Upwards of thirty counties remain to be heard from, nnd of tho others, many are only partially returned. As far as heard from, Pease bos upwards of 10,000 votes, Ochiltree about 7,000. Wood 3,500, Evans about 2,500, Chambers 1,500, and Dancy 200. For Lieut. Governor, Dickson has about 7.000 : Ro bertson 3,600; Henry 2,500 and Kirby 3.000. For Congress, in tho Western District, Bell has a little over 4,000, Scnrrv 3,000, Caruthere and Lewis about 2,000 each,and Blake 1,000. The appropriation for river improvements Is doubt less dofented. The accounts from the Interior still represent tho prospects for the cotton crop as unusually fine. Pick ing is in good progress in many places. The sugar cane, we are told, nardly equals that of last year at this period in the season. Tho health of tho Interior counties is generally good. The Tribuno learns that tho hands necessary for the clearing out of the Colorado Raft, havo arrived at indlnno!a^-iV. O. Courier, 314*. Heavy Robbery. Providence, Sent. 1.—The Messenger of the New port Bank was robbed on board the steamer Perry, this afternoon, of a passage containing $30,000 to $50,000. Whilst his back was turned, tho thief changed tho package substituting newspapers cut to the Hizo of tbe bills. The Messenger did not discov er tho cheat till ho arrived at the Merchant’s Bank here. Arrival of the Hermann. New York, Sept. 1. The steamer Hermann arrived at a late hour lost night, brining 250 passengers. She left Southamp ton on the 17th. Tho London Daily News announces that Austria has issued a long address to all tho Governments of Europe, showing that she was right in tho Smyrna affair, and that this is the first step towards the re alization of the Monroe doctrino by tho United States. The scaffolding of tbo Crystal Palace at Sydenham had fallen, killing eleven persons and wounding 20. Several warehouses lmd been burnt at Dover, in volving a loss of 60,000/. The intense beat caused portions of the Cliff to fall, killing several firemen. Arrival of Troops. New Ouleans, Aug. 31. The steamer Louisiana has arrived at the Brazos in ten days from New York, with a detachment of U. S. troops. It is uenied heie that uncleansed clothing or rags arc shipped for New York, The Sisters of Charity have fora long time been allowed to carry away the clothes of patients dying in tho hospitals, and they affirm that they ore well washed and purified before being sold. Trial of lllihop Donne. _. T _ . ' , Philadelphia, Sept. 1. The House of Bishops of tho Protestant Episcopal Church met at Camden to-day, for the purpose of try ing the chnrges against Bishop Doane, of New Jer sey. Bishop Brownell presided and Bishop Wain- wright acted as Secretary, Tho following Bishops were present, viz : Chase, Freeman, Kemper, Rut- lodge, McCroBkey, Unfold, Wainwright, Whitting- ham, Brownell, Eastham, Johns, Leo, Potter, Wil liams, Llllott, Otey, Poik and Hopkins. All except too ecclesiastics were excluded from the convention, ana among them wero tho connsol for Bishop Doano, George M. Wharton and W. M. Meredith, of Philadel- pbia, and Jodgo Chambers, of Maryland, who will not be admitted till the evidence comes before tho nouse. One of the new charges in tho presentment made against Doane by Bishops Meade, Mollvaino and Burgess, Is that of paying unlawful usury for money. * When the presentment was read, Bishop Whitting- ham offered a resolution that tho charges nad already ueen disposed of by a previous court, and that tho committee of the Diocese of New Jersey bo now beard. This was objected to on tho ground of being equivalent to quashing tho indictment, and tbo re spondent asked time to consider whether he would make that motion. A motion that tbo court meet at Burlington, was rejected, and tbe court adjourned till to-morrow. Affecting Incident—Yellow Fever. An incident ofthe mostnffcctingand heart-rending character occurred kt the inquest of tho desolate and ill-starred stranger, Mary Cotter—who died of yellow fever, aa ono of tho gentlemen of tho jury informed ns, from sheer and absolute neglect I There was the corp3Coftbe mother pale and attenuated, but still beautiful in death—a child but three mouths old, was evidently Becking for her “milklesa breasttbo poor father lay dying at tho foot of the corpse—and yet, that smilo which is known bnt to infancy and the an gels, was beaming on the baby’s face I—Suddenly it turned, and with all the earnestness of mature years, fixed a long and steady gaze on a gentleman named Tyrrell. Mr. Tyrrell was deeply affected; he took up tho Infant and pressed it to his heart, and, with tbe mo," bless and reward him for this charitable deed l —N. O. Courier. The Cotton Crop.—Daring tho present week wo have seen and conversed with many farmers from tho various parts of the county, and all concur In the opinion that the cotton crop of the county will be ex ceedingly short occasioned Dy tho rust, and the boll- worm which is committing sad havoo upon it. Wo are informod that some fields are almost entirely dead, so completely are they eaten np by the mat, which was superinduced by being worked when too wet. It is thought by some that there will not bo more than a third of a crop made in this county, aud scarcely any ono believes that there will be much over a half cr of the people 1 ed it much worse than it really to. Tho corn crops are generally good—much better than was anticipated, and there wul be enough tnado to support tho county, and a “small smidgen” to spare to oar less fortunate neighbor!.—Buena Vista 'emecum, 3d inst. crop.

All sorts of rascally conjectures and criminal suspi cions were afloat by both bankers and people, to the g reat annoyance of some, and. much actual damage > the banks. 1 At last the mystery has been unraveled, and we are permitted by one of the parties most deeply concern ed. to give publicity to tne following statements: A few months ago a rumor was current that a few bills on the Miami Valley Bank had found their way into circulation without the proper filling np and reg istry at the auditor'* office, It may be won to state that the general law authorizing what is called free banking In this state, requires the auditor to procure tho engraving and furnish the bills for said hank, oharging the expense on their account, and that as Tost as said banks deposit with him state stock secu rities, ho issues bills duly registered to tho same amount. IUwden, Wright & Co., Cincinnati, had been em ployed to get the plates for theso banka, and for con venience, aa they wero continually receiving orders from tbe auditor for new issues, kopt the plates la •their possession. Thus matters Btood, till, a fow weeks ago, an alarming quantity of these gcuuine bills, with counterfeit signatures, appeared not on the Miami Valley Bank, but of some hair dozen othors of tbo State stooks. The publio were alarmed and put upon their guard, and at the samo time, tho auditor, Mr, Jones, the agent of the engravers, and os wo Bald before, tbe bankers, set themselves about investiga ting the afikic. To tho vigilance and Indomitable peraoveranco of the anditor, who although silent, slept not, is much of tho credit due for oxploding this, tho most cun ningly devised and stupendous scheme of public rob bery over concocted ih this or any other country. He went to Cincinnati, found tho plates all right, and in their place in the engraver’s hand*. Nobody suspec ted about the establishment—all was quiet there— Tho next object was to trace their issue from first bands. This was impossible. Tho next was to go among tho rogues and scoundrels in the city, and they are always plenty enough in Cincinnati, visit the jails and gambling housos, and with bribes, elicit tho secret. Here “ the snake was scotched.” Among the gang of counterfeiters recently arrived at Coving ton, Ky., was found ono who knew all about this mat ter, and for a consideration, revealed the whole affair. Ho was ono of the several who had bribed one of tho employees of Rawdon. Wright & Co’s, establish ment, to furnish them bills in small amounts, from time to time, for cash la hand. This employee was counted tho most honest nnd upright man In the es tablishment, had been there 11 years, treated in all things confidentially, and was entirely above suspi cion. For some mouths back. Mr. Jones, tbo agent, bad observed a change In bis appearance, looking haggard and fatigued.and supposing it was ill-hcaltb, occasioned by so much conllnement, induced him to go East for bis health, where he still was when this development took place. Yesterday it was telegraph ed to us that he hnd been arrested, which accounts for giving publicity to this to-day. It was leered bo might leave tho country, if informed of what bad been revealed against him by his accomplice In tbu Cincinnati jail. As near as can be ascertained, about firteen thousand dollars of those spurious bills have been issued, but tbe informer thinks that considera ble of R still remains In tho counterfeiter’s bands. A lady, one ofthe gang, now confined at Columbus, confirms this statement. The banks have deterfniued to redeem as fast as presented, all their old issues, and have ordered new plates on which new Issues arc to bo made. Mr. Jones, the agent of the engrav ers, has redeemed some thousand dollars of the spu rious currency, out of his private fundB. In the end, tho public can lose but little. The banka, from the inconvenience of withdrawing their old circulation and getting np new, will Buffer much. It is said that this same gang of counterfeits had got their schemes laid to get hold of the plates of the State Bank, in tho hands of other engravers, and had not this affair exploded so soon, would have bad out any quantity of 44 State Bank ” bills, In conjunction with the independent bunks. It issaid by those who havo been Investigating the matter, that it has been the best laid plot, moat cun ningly devised and prudently conducted ot any on record in tho criminal history of tho country, nnd in another month would havo neen put in operation on so extended a scale as to havo produced n general panic by tbe distress and disarrangement it would necessarily create in our money affairs. Startling Feat. A Paris correspondent of tho New York Times glvos the following account of the latest amusement devised for tho wonder loving Parisians: The feat of jumping from a baloon, tho jumper sus tained by an India rubber ropo, was fully performed ou Thursday. It was the most stupendous exhibition of daring and address that tho Parisians have yet been permitted to witness. From one side of the car of tho baloon hung the India rubber cord, descending 150 feet, and then returning and being fastened to tbe other side of the car. It thus formed a strong loop. The athlete was dressed as Mercury; his body, from tho neck to tho small of his bock, was enclosed in a frame work, which enabled him to endure tho suspen sion without wrenobiag or dislocation. The rone passed through an eyelet in tho middlo of the baclc, placed so that he was held in perfect equilibrium. When tbe baloon bad reached an altitude double that of the supposed elasticity of tho cord, the voltigeur appeared on the edge of the car, looked over, shut his eyes, and drove off into space. The eylet slipped along tho rope, so that the first 150 feet were a positive fall through tho air, without any resistance or break. Tho rest ol the way was an elongation of the rope. It stretched four times its length, making in all a descent of COO feot, accom- J dished in two seconds. Alter having attained its owest point, tho rope contracted once, perhaps 200 feet, and then descended again. There was no farth er rebound,and no oscillation, tho voltiguer lad calm ly cradled in mid-air, and probably spent the leisure he was now permitted to enjoy in recovering his breath, and contemplating the prospect. The rcro- naut above now commenced at the windlass, and gradually wound his dangling friend up again. In four minutes he climbed over the side of the car, having made tho fastest time that any human being has ever achieved, except Buch as have been shot from cannon, as Baron Munchansen said bo was, I think. Six hundred feet in two seconds is at at the rate of 3i miles a minute. We are waltiug to know what will bo done next. This is certainly a startling feat, but not half so startling as tbe fact that the law of gravitation ope rates differently in Paris from what it docs in any other known part of tho globe. Accordingly to this law, a body falls sixteen feet the first second of time, and in two seconds, it will have fallen a height of six ty-four feet. How tho man fell six hundred feet in two seconds, is more a subject of wonder than tho feat which Is so minutely described for our admiration.— Perhaps tbo French Academy of Science will tako the matter into consideration and give a rational explan ation of tho 44 pbendmenon.” List of Ibrdffn Currencies, the Value, of which have been fixed by the Imws of the United States.

Commodore Coe. Rumors havo been extensively circulated that Com. Coo, who was recently in command ofthe naval forces of Urquiza at Buenos Ayres, bad sold his command to the opposite party, and deserted. Wo are glad to state from other advices that this Is wick edly false, having been originated in personal malice. We learn that the crews of his vessels mutinied in such a manner that it was Impossible for him to con trol them, and he was consequently obliged to take refuge elsewhere. • If o ver a high character, earned by a life-long mani festation of honorable Instincts can serve a man, It should in such an instance os this ; and persons in this, the native place of Commodore Coe, who havo known him from youth, will bo very Blow to believe a charge, as yet irresponsibly circulated, amid tho ri valries of bucu treacherous factions as now distract that part ol South America.

When the officers reached Jack sonville, where the pedlar lies, Hendrickson, pre viously arrested on suspicion, was undergoing an ex amination. The pedlar had charged him with the robbery, but on the arrival of Wood they wero both brought into his presence, when he retracted his charge against Hendrickson nnd accused Wood of be ing his ossallunt. In addition to tho recognition of the pedlar, several other witnesses swore that Wood is the man who hired a waggon nt Gayhead on tho afternoon of tho outrage, and was driven to Catskill. Other witnesses recognised Wood as the man who wns seen on the plankrond in cumpnny with the ped lar, on tho day the ncdlnr was shot. Wood, finding the evidence overwhelming against him, has made a full confession of his guilt, and was yesterday fully committed to answer the charge, by Justice Stewart.

Roman Catholics in tot United States.—A let ter from Father de Smet, written at St. Louis, and E nbllshed in the Annals of the Propogation of the uith, gives some important statements respecting the condition and prospects of tho Roman Church in the United States. According to this writer, the Jesuit Society progresses here at a slow bnt steady pace, having already seventeen colleges, a number which would soon be doubled if tbe requisite staff of teachers could be procured. Requests for new estab lishments are made by tbe Bishops in all parts of tho Union, inclnding New Mexico and California. In New Mexico there are stated to be one hundred thous and Catholics, of whom ten tbonsand are Indians, and for all these there are but twelvo priests, and not a single school nor college. In the whole United Btates, tbe letter says, there are near fonr millions of Catholics, though all these figures socm liko mere rough guesses, not based upon actual data. Father de Smet complains of a great laok of priests, which, as he expresses it, is “ keenly felt in a country where Protestantism, indifference, irreligion, infidelity, rash like a torrent in all directions, and bear in their onr- rent thousands of Catholics.”—N.

Following tbo impulse of a natural dread, tho merchant went to Mobile to avoid the destructive visitation of the scourge, and the next day buried hfs young and beautiful bride. Disgusted with a borne where nought but empty chambers served to call op the memories of departed joys, he roturnod to tho city to sell cut hia household, determ ined to leuvo a locality to him so suggestive of sor row.
