Tho sizo of tho vein is from two to three feet wide, and about one Toot in thickness. No preparation to beat or crush the rock has been made, therefore he lias only got what gold was in tho gravel and dirt, which yiolaedaI»ut$3A0 to tho foot of vein. Tho ore hns been tested, by pounding and punning, and out of one bushel, weighing 12n pounds, he lias realized five pennyweights and eighteen grains. The surfaco of the ridgo of quartz, ona mile and a fourth in length, has been tested by nn experienced miner, who gives it as ids opinion that it will, in a sluice, make four dollars per day to the hand.

Money and the Sub-Treasury.—Tho New York Evening Post thus speaks of tho influence of tbo sub- treasury system upon business and the money mar ket : Tho Imports for tho season are drawing to a close yet the payments out of the sub-treasury are so small as to bo met by tbe payments into it for duties.— Tho largo amount of nine millions still lies in tho vaults undor tho custom-house. Had this large amount been entrusted to tho banka, what an enormous ex pansion wo should have had of credit. Tho usual prudent calculation is three times tho amount of spe cie, but bank imprudence wonld have used a higher multiple, and In such a case what a crash would have ensued when tbo money would liavo been re-called.— From this wo are savod by tho action of tho sub-treas ury scheme. Doubtless, when this large sum posses into circulation again, its lnfluenco will bo largely and widely felt; but it will bo one followed by no re action.

Jenny Lind Goldsoumidt.—Tho Rev. Mr. Wlborg, one of tho missionaries at Swoden, now on a visit to Amerioa t in a recent conversation with the editor of the Christian Chronicle, gives a very interesting ac count of this lady. Ho says alio has beon religiously Inclined for somo years, and was under decided con victions of divine truth just before sho camo to this country. Sho was received here with such a storm of opplauso wherever sho went, that her nions Wends in Sweden were anxious, and tremblod for tbo oflbet on her soot. But slnco her marriago and residence at Dresden, Germany, ber religions toelings havo deop- oood, and sho is now regarded as r hopeful Inquirer. Many will rcjolco at this, and pray that tho Spirit of God may lead her mind into nil truth, and that her rich and melodious voice may yot sing tho nroiscs of Moses nnd tho Lamb, and charm multitudes wlillo singing tho songs of tho redeemed. Bro. W. informs '“that sho has already given ono hundred thousand dollars to found an Orphan School for girls in Swo- don. A truly noble object.

On tho altornoon of tho 15th of August, Capt.Mo. Ooran, master of the ship Defiance, sent a boat with four men and a some to catch Osh, as was tbu custom; and at dark the first offleerof tho ship went In March of them, ordered by tho captain—they having beon gone much longer thau usual. They were found on board a gurd-smp in irons. Tho offleerof tho ship lit* qnlrad the cause of tliolr being thus detained, and was Informed that they bad killed a Pel Haiti. Then bo inquired what was the penalty, and was informed n lino of ono dollar, and this lino ho offbred them— happening to havo soma loose change In his pockets, This fine tho officer of tho guard-amp refused to re- coivo, saying tlmt tho men must remain In Irons. Finding it impossible to llboroto his men, the first officer of tho Defiance returned aboard, and reported the state of aflhlra to Captain MoCoran, who started forthwith for tlioguard-Hlilp, accompanied by Cnptaiu Beatty, or tho ship John Baring, who happened to ho on board tho Defiance. Cnpt. MoCoran, nflor vainly expostulating with tho comiuaudant for the liberation of the seamen, (stat ing that he wanted tho men curly, as tho ahlp iviu to haul undor tho shoot tho noxt morning,) finally said ht would not leave tho Guard ship until hismeu wore liberated. Tho commandant thereupon called up a guard ol soldiere, and luirly forced Imu into ouo of tholr boats, and took him aboard Ills own ship, Capt. Beatty having gouo with tho Defiance's boat to arouse tho Amcrlcau Captains, fearful tlmt the com mandant would uao violeneo towards Captalu McCo- ran, It tlion being elevou o’clock at night. Tho following day, a meeting of all tho American shipmasters was called, and it was tlioro decided that they should all go aboard tho Guard ship in a gentle manly manner, nnd ask tho commaurtant tho cause of treating American seamen in this muuiicr. When thoy urrlvcd aboard tho Guard shin tho com maudant was not there; a boat thou was dispatched for him, and tlio first words uttered by him,ns ho passed over tlio gangway, was to tbo Lieutenant;— Call up your forces and expel the intruders;.this was said in Spanish. Tho Llcnteimut endeavored to ex postulate with him, but no use. Tho soldiers were called, and marched arontid on the port side or the deck, having loaded their mnsketa. Then they de filed half around tho companion way, and hair for ward around the galley to the starboard side of the deck, where the captains all stood near, about forty in number, and, fixing their bayonets, they charged forward and alt upon. thoBO defenceless men, and drove them nil poll-mell, at tho bayonet's point, over tho gangway, which was very narrow, some of the soldiers heating the men over their heads and bodies with tho buts of their muskets, os they were descend ing the vessel's Bido. Many captains were seriously stabbed by tho bayo nets and otherwise injured. Cnpt. McCeran in par ticular received a wouud in tho thigh, 4j inches deep, as probed by’a surgeon of an English man-of-war, which camo In «lew days after. Time was not even given for the captains to got out their boats, and many went overboard, nearly drowning several. After the wounded captains had been attended to, n committee was appointed to draw up a statement of tho facts in relation to the affair, and a committee appointed to wait upon tho American Minister at Lima with this statement, which has been done, and a new commandant sent down here by the Peruvian Government. Here tho caso stands; hat there is yet a sequel to tliis, in the shapo of the capture and ironing of Capt. McCeran. A few days niter this, (August 21st) tbo English frigate Portland, Admiral Moresby, camo to in tho harbor. A committee immediately waited upon tbo Admiral, with a statement of thesu facts, and lie condemned tlio course pursued by the Comiuaudant; likewise, Capt. McCeran, fearing that tho command ant would endeavor to take him out of his ship, was assured by the Admiral that he should not be; there fore ho (tue Admiral) would not leai^foptH the cum- mandaut gavo his word of honor,HR gentleman, that ho would not attempt to detain Capt. McCeran a moment after his ship" was ready for sea. This, finally, the commandant promised to Admiral Mores by's son, a lieutenant, In presence of several persons. Tlio frigate then put to sea. All went well enough until Friday last, the 2d of September. That day, at about 4 o'clock iu tho after noon, tlio Defiance having weighed anchor and made sail forsea, ilred a cannon os a parting salute, as L customary with largo ships when leaving port. Un fortunately tho wind was very light, ana finally died a way i n a cal m. It was not ten minutes alter tho report of tho gun before two man-of-war's boats from tbo Peru- j r vian man-of-war steamer cninu alongside of the J '- onDllca • ship. Tho lientcnant boarded her, and Captain Me-! Cornn met him at tho gangway, saying, “Hereis twenty-five dollars, the fine for having fired a gnu, and her Is twenty-five more, tor I am going to lire another." Tho officer replied, taking the money in Ids hand, •* Another, another, captain." Cuptaiu McCeran than replied, '• Yes ; and as you used force tho other day, I supposed you came hero to use force." Upon this the officer jumped one side,saying,“Force; wuat, yon tulx force r’ Ho then called to his soldiers tliut were in the boat, nnd seizing a cutlass that lay on a spar, stuck it into tho hatch. Stepping on the opposite sido of tho deck, he threatened to shoot the man who dare touch it, at the same time cocking Ids G lstol. Before Captain McCeran had time to defend imself, a dozen soldiers were upon him. Ono cut him on the bead with a boarding oxo ; another shot .him through tho throat, and inflicted various otliei wounds upon him, beating him with tho buts of tholr muskets. Tho Peruvian lientcnant wa'> strangely ex cited, cocking his pistol with ono hand, and snap ping it with tho other, without taking any nim di rectly, the pistol being only pointed iu the direction of Captain McCeran.- Finally it discharged, and tlio ball entered tlio loins of ono of the soldiers causing a mortal wound. Finally, after beating Captain Me* Ccran until he was senseless, they tied him baud and foot, and tossed him into their boats. At the time of tho melee there were a number of American captains on bourd, and, to tlioir shame be It said, many fled by loWerlugHheinselves over the taffrail by tbo boats’ paniters into tho boat. Only ono or two lifted n hand to release Captain McCeran. One captain, bo it said to his honor, succeeded bo far as to liberate .e hands- of Captain McCeran; but tho soldiers preparing to shoot him, lie was compelled to desist. Captain McCeran,battered nnd wounded as ho was, was taken aboard tho guurdship, and here chained hand and foot to a ring-bolt in the deck, anil there kept like the vilest criminal for three days and nights, not a soul allowed eveu to see him, not excepting his son, a boy twelve years. of ago. Whilst there con fined a man contrived to speak to him, telling him to ent or drink nothing they gave him, as it was poison ed. In this state lie was until a doctor, tout down by tlio Minister nt Lima to inquire into tlio former af fairs, demanded to see him in tho natuo of the Ameri can Minister, when he very unwillingly was allowed to aco him. He inslantlyjdemanded liia release from irons, saying he could not live forty-eight hours long er iu that posion. His son then was allowed to seu him for the first time. Now ho has a room, although yet n close prisoner, nono allowed to boo him except bis son and tho doctor, and they only at a certain time of the day. His Bon now daily carried his food to him, and he is getting much belter, though seriously wounded. With regard to his ship, the Peruvian ofifeers let two men that were in irons for misdeeds, have their liber ty, nnd gave clinrgc of tho ship to tho boatswain, a man who once attempted the life of Capt. McCeran, and who also was in irons. Tho sailors abonrd now hnvo lino times ; only a day or two ago they killed ail tho fowls, and had" a glorious blow out" of chick ens ; ia fact, all tlio live stock has been sacrificed to “ old jack," who seems to ho well pleased with tho fun. Tbo chief mate, who was on the forecastle nnd unable to got aft at the timo of the trouble, has gnno to Callao *, In fact, none of tho officers aro aboard but tho boatswain. The colors were struck ns soon as thoy carried away Capt. McCeran. Thus tho affair, stands; but shortly there is to bo nn after-clap, for the'old commandant challenged any one American captain to a duel. This challenge has been accepted, and writings drawn up; but as yet,' I do not feel au thorized togivo tlio name of the acceptor; all I can say is that uo is a small man, and considered a (lend shot with a pistol, being an old California miner, lately ft >m the “ diggings." This ia about tlio state of aflhirs at this place at present. How mncli we need a man-of-war here, can well bo imngined. Tho frigate 8t. Lawrence was in Callao nearly three months ago, remaining three day a, when she left for GayanulU. This is the only American man-of-war that I havo seen here during a resideneno of eight months. If you feel disposed to give this to tho public, you are at liberty to do so, for I can vouch for its strict adherence to truth throughout; but perhaps some more able pen than mino has ero this “ put tho ball in motion." If so, I earnestly hope our Young Ameri ca, Franklin Picrco, will stir up tlicso degenerate descendants of Castile with a smell of genuine Yankee gunpowder. In tlio meautimo, who ia to pay for tho damage of tlio Defiance ? Are tho Americans to tamely submit to insults deop and degrading os there ? Afore God I hope uot. I now conclude, with tho hope that a speedy retri bution is at hand for thoso dnstardiy Peruvians. I am, sirs, with respect, Youra.etc., (J. R.

Advance in Freights—The last foreign news has created a very active demand for vessels to carry breadstuff's to Europe, resulting in an advance on the rates of freight.

Never marry a stranger, or one whose character is not known or tested. Some females jump right into tlio fire witli tiicir oyes wide open. Never marry a mono or a drone—ono who drawls and draggles through lifo, one foot after another, nnd let tilings tako their own course. Never marry a man who treats his mother or sister unkindly or indifferently. Such treatment is a sure indication of a mean and wicked man. Never, on any account, mnrry a gambler, a profane person or one who in the least speaks lightly of God or religion. Such a man never can make a good bus band.
