Of the merits oT the Message, In all Us bearlnga, It may be unnecessary to apeak farther than we have already done. It cannot toll of being generally read and approved, even by the strongest opponents of the administration. Indeed, we cannot aee how they eaa find fault with either Its style, spirit or recom mendations. Without going into detail, we quote the following paragraphs, which especially commend themselves to the entire people of the Union: , - Tbs controversies, which have agitated the coun try heretofore, are passing sway with the cmmes which produced them and the passions which they had awakened; or, If any trace of them remains, ft may be reasonably hoped that it will only bo per- oeived la the aealooa rivalry of all good citizens to testify their respect for the rights of the States, their devotion to the Union, and their common determina tion that each one of tbe States, its Institutions, its welfhre, and its domestic peace shall be held alike secure under tbe sacred agia of tbe constitution. I am deeply sensible of the immense responsibility which the present magnitude of the repabuc, sad the diversity sad multiplicity of its interests, devolves upon me; the alleviation of which, so far as relates to the immediate oondnet of the publio business is, first, io my reliance on tbe wisdom and patriotism or the two Houses of Congress : and. secondly, in tbe directions afforded me by tbe principles of public polity, affirmed by our fathers ortho epoch of 1798 sanctioned by long experience, and consecrated anew by the overwhelming voice of tbe people of the Uni ted States. Recurring to these principles, which constitute the organic basis of anion, we perceive that, vast as ore the functions and tbe duties of tbe federal govern ment, vested in, or entrusted to, its three great de partments, tbe legislative, executive, and judicial, themselves well constituted republics, as they pre- oeded, so they alone are capable of maintaining and perpetuating, the American Union. Too federal government has its appropriate line of action in the specific and limited powers conferred on It by the constitution, chiefly as to thoso things in which the States have a common interest in their re lations to oneanother, and to foreign governments; while the great mass of interest which belong to cul tivated men, tbe ordinary business of life, the springs of industry, all tbe diversified personal and dumestlc affairs of society, rest securely upon the general re served powers of tho people of the several States.— There Is tho effective democracy of the nation, and there the vital essence of its being and its great- Lou of tbeRerenue Cutter Hamilton! Tbe Charleston Courier, of yesterday, records tho lost of the U. 8. Revenue Cutter Hamilton, Captain T. E. Ruwjlfii, with the probability of all tho officers and men oonnected with her, except one—a seaman, named James Hogan. Tbe Hamilton left tho Charles ton Dry Dock on Wednesday, for a crnlse, and hav ing, as we learn, says the Courier, reached the Bar, in endeavoring to go to sea got ashore on tho break ers in the vicinity, but was finally got off in tho eve ning, although in cousoquence of the difficulty of get ting underway near the shoals, it was deemed pru dent to anchor nntil morning. At daylight, however, it commenced to blow a gale from the north-east, which rendered it impossible to get tho vessel under way in the position she then lay, and Copt. Rudulph, directing his attention to security, brought all her chains and anchors into requisition, but the gale con tinuing to increase, one chain after another parted and was driven ashore on Folly Islands Breakers, on Thursday night, and the masts shortly afterwards go ing by tbe board, and the vessel leaking very badly, it was deemed best to abandon her. that being the only choice for saving tho lives of all on board. Ac cordingly Captain Rudulph, Thomas Stone, of Bos ton, Quartermaster, fonr men and two boys, took one . .|nwn/ uuivng »uo urtantra, was capsized, and every soul in her drowned, with the exception of Hooan, who had taken tho precau tion, which the others had neglected, of lashing him self to tbe boat, and was picked up at sea near North Edisto, Friday, by tho steamer Calhoun, Capt. Bar den, from this port, and taken into Charleston. The other life boat, of which no information bos as yet been ascertained, although from tbe aeverlty of tbe weather, the Courier says, very slight hopes are entertained of her safety, contained Cauillus Saun ders, son of General Romulus M. Saunders, of N. 0., 1st Lieut., E. C. Hike, 3d Lieut., there being no second Lieut, attached, and tho remainder of the crew, which probably consisted of the Carpenter and fonr men. As far os we can learn, among those on board, in addition to the officers already mentioned, were John U. Mahony, Boatswain, Georoe Carter, Carpenter,ol New England, James Sullivan, Mas ter-at-arms, and John Johnson, George Brown, Ti mothy Hurley, and Joseph Bowser, colored. Capiain Thomas E. Rudulph, the Commander of the Hamilton, was a native of 8t. Marys, and, we believe, one of the oldest, if not the oldest, officer in the Revenue Service. His family have resided in Charleston for many years, where Capt. R. was best known, and where, by bis affability of manners, and high-toned bearing on every occasion, bo had endear ed himself to a largo circle of acquaintances, who deeply regret tbe sudden and melancholy fate that has befallen him. In his profession, also, he was universally esteemed, and in bis death the service has sostained the loss of a gallant, conscientious, and highly efficient officer. Messrs. Saunders and Hine were likewise young officers of great promise, and it is to bo hoped that the fears as to their safety and those under their command, may prove groundless. It has been our pleasure repeatedly to record im portant services rendered by Capt. Rudulph, as also of his officers and men, along our coast, in the prompt discharge of duty In the revenae services, and in acts of daring and kindness in the relief of vessels and persons in distress; and we are sure tho people of Savannah will fully share their sympathy With those of the oitizens of Charleston, and tbe relatives and friends of tho lost. We learn by Capt. Peck, of tbe steamer Wm. Sea- brook, who arrived from Charleston last evening, via Beaufort, that when three miles north of Edisto In let, he saw a vessel bottom up, which was doubtless the Hamilton. He saw nothing of tbe other small boat belonging to the cutter, or of the persons who committed themselves to the waves in her. The late Anson G. Phelps, after providing In hla will amply for bta widow and ftunily.hu left $381,* 000 to rellgiona and benevolent societies. Swindler Cauoht.—On Tuesday last, a man, who registered himself at the Augusta Hotel, as Pktxr M. Mather, was arrested for attempting V> swindle Mr. F. 0. Barber, Broker, of Augusta, out of tlOO. He desired a loan of the money on tbe pledges of two gold watohea, which were placed in a tin box in presence of Mr. B, and soaiedup. Instead, however, of handing him the box with tbe watches, a similar one containing sand was si^Mtitnted. The money was paid over, bat before the swindler ba^ left tho city his trick was discovered, and he arrested and lodged in Jail, The great match race, for $10,000 astdo, between Oardella Reed and Compromise, that came off at Nashville, Tcnn., on the 3d inst., was won by Com promise in two heals.

Upswing or Use Great Pacific Railroad. Ou Saturday last a gallant compauy assembled at Aiglets, in compliance with an invitation of the Su- jerintendent, to participate in the festivities attend- ng the opening of the New Orleans, Opelousas and Great Western R’road. Tbe guests,numbering about two hundred, comprised members of the oity press, presidents of tbe different railroads, members of the Legislature and of the City Connell, citizens gener ally and distinguished'strangers. Among the num ber we observed tho commanding figure or tbe Mexi can General Rebles, of cx-Chief Justice Eustis, Gen. John L. Lewis, and that Nestor of the bar, Col. Johu It. Grymes, together with other notable habitues, not less distinguished for their talents than for their im portant public services. At a few minutes after eleven o’clock, the company left the foot of Canal street on a ferry-boat provided for tbe occasion, serenaded by a brass band, and ar rived at the dopot at Algiers. There a few minutes leisure was offered to examine the extensive buildings of the Company, which are laid on a grand scale. Tne depot is a spacious building, and is laid off with a view to a very large business. The locomotive upon the road is one of the finest ever constructed, and capable of a speed of something like sixty miles to the hour. Tho track is laid with T rail of heavy iron, on cross- ties of cedar, aud in point of firmness and durability is second to no other work of the kind in the States. A gnage of 5} feet is given to the track, thus insuring it against vibration, and imparting greater security, with a capacity for extraordinary speed. At a few minutes after 12 o'clock tho order of “all aboard" was given and tho train moved oil. As ttio locomotive was placed on the track reversed, and was only guided by it* ./Tango, the engineer did not think it advisable to move at a very rapid rote. The distauco, however, of seventeen miles was accom plished in about forty-five minutes. Along tho first two miles or the road, aud a half mile buck from tho river, the land is low and marshy. Beyond Gretna the region of plantations commences, and immense sugar fields spread oat to tho right and left. The greeu and luxuriant appearance ol tho cano fields, stretching away to magnificent distances, afforded a pleasant relief to the eye of the long pent up denizeu of the town. Spacious and commodious dwelling houses dot the river shore in front of all the pianta tions. and these arc flanked with the white cottages of tho black laborers, and surrounded with orange groves, covered with a profusion of rino and delicious fruit. To the right of the road aud some ten miles above the city is the Destrahan plantation, with its magnificent mansion, constructed in tho Gothicstyle, with towers and turrets, resembling those strange structures of Feudal times we read of in black letter volumes, and conjuring up odd fancies of mailed wurriors, ladies cn white palfries, troubadour* jin- ^ love fancies to sentimental misses, of cross- twanging from the costlo keep, and of bioud and wounds. From these scenes of culture the thun dering train passed rapidly to the region of swamps, where the cypress hang* it* solemn drapery of moss; and then again into broad patches of marsh, tenant ed by flock* of wild fowl that sprang from their con. ccalment in terrified baste, und sped away on whist ling wings. Theso passed, sugar estates again in tervened, that stretched away to the horizon’s edge. In tho midst of one of these tho train stopped, hav ing arrived at the present terminus of the road. For a brier hour the company had leisure to amuse themselves in the very undignified recreation of sprawling on the gras*, after which tho music sum moned them to a cold spread of various luxuries, flanked with a formidable array of hottlos of wine. At three o’clock the train started for Algiers, and this time with the locomotive going bend foremost, tho cars rattled along at a most astonishing pace, ' a part of tho time at the rate of fifty-live mile* 'jjvjljj rtflfbsndsoros.Ymf deilroSof » second" marriage. About this time, Indeed; there was visiting her a young man for whom ahe had connived an affection, a proposition of marriage she was now beginning im patiently to await. But no proposal waa mado. A dark thought finally creased the young woman's mind that there most to some obstacle In tbe wav. and that this obetacio waa, in ail probability, tne child. An unnatural struggle of jealously took place, which resulted in a fosrfol determination—she would make away with the ohild 1 Beneath her house was a deep cellar, where she occasionally stored her vege tables. Taking her ohild by the hand oue day, she led it down stairs, and, thrusting it inside, closed tho door, looked it, and hurried up stairs. The tame evening hor lover came, they sat chat ting together, but no mention was mado of the little absentee. Tbe next day, after a desertion nf twenty- four hours, the mother went softly down and listened at the door. The quick ear of the child caught her mother’s step and isbo implored her to take her out of that dark place—ahe wis so cold and very hungry.— No answer was returned, and tbe mother crept quiet ly up stairs. In tho evening the lover came again.— They took snpper together and passed a social even ing. After tbe second twenty-four hours had passed, the mother made another visit to the child. Again the little sufferer heard her, and with feeble voice begged for a crust of bread—only one crust of bread. This pulled a little upon the mother’s heart, but—her purpose was fixed. Another day passed. Tho moth er went quietly down stairs and listened. All was silent. 8be opened softly the door—tho child lay dead. Taking swiftly the body up stairs, she laid it npon a tod; and immediately making a great outcry called the neighbors together; tolling them that her child had suddenly died. And so it seemed. The day after there was a funeral. The child was lying in its coffin, bestrewn with flowers, brought by Ibe little playmates in the neighborhood, who had i to attend the funeral of their lost favorite. The fc®*, NOTICE—Tbs stMiasr T.

It is an animal raised in Texas and produced by a cross between the Mexican Polon, or naked dog, and a femal goat. He possesses to a great degree tbo remarkable qualities of the specie from which he sprung on the maternal side, together with tho endarance persevance of his paternal ancestor. His physicul endowments are such as to render him extremely rapid in the execu tion of his peculiar movements. He is a fine sample of superfluous stock-raising on the Rio Grande, and owes his present visit to this city to the fact that In dians would steal him. We understand that it is the intention of Captain Dan to ship him to the World’s Fair, where tots will bo made that in tho ex hibition of bi* peculiar parts he can be beat by no an imal that goes on fonr legs^-iV. O. Crescent. Tiib Sabdath and the Old CiiunonaBELL.—No thing awakes more pleasing recollections, and tells more of “ Auld Laug Syne,” than the sound of the old church bell on a Sabbath day, whether it to pleas ant or stormy, swinging from its old weather-worn turret, tho same pulpit from which it preached the ' tidings or great joy.” Its sounds are always elo quent to tho sensitive mind, and it makes tbe mind revert to the scenes of “ long, long, long ago,” when in childhood its mysterious yet touching tones, the first source of admiration, and in following year* it* sound was a melodious muse to the soul. Although bo who preaches tbo language ot hopo and consola tion to the flock who are wont to assemble within its sacred walls may fail, yet the old bell does not cease to preach from i'ts belfry pulpit. No doubt it has rung the funeral dirge of a father, a kind mother, son, and daughter, and still rings on ; its sounds are no less thrilling than when, for the flrat time, it broke upon the hills which have so often echoed , with its well- known voice. Sickness at Tampa and Key West.—The steamer James L. Day touched at St. Murks, on Wednesday, on her return trip from Key West to New Orleans.— Letters by her state that tbe yellow fever has broken out at Key West, and a death or two had occarrcd.— Fears were expressed that tho islund would become very sickly. At Tampa there continued to bo occasionally a death from the same cause, and at the time of the sailing of tho steamer two others were lying very, low. Rev.

The great Pacific Railroad ha* commenced— it* beginning is a reality, and the friend* of tho en terprise can work on, with a high hopo that at no distant day they may be enabled to rejoice over it* completion. There is to be no flagging in the good work, and it* course i* onward ! The Gale. As we anticipated, the effects of the storm which prevailed along oar coast on Thursday and Thursday night, were disastrous to life and property. As yet we have heard only of the loss of tbe Revenae catter Hamilton, and, probably, all hot one man of those who were on board, though we fear other wrecks have occurred. In Charleston, according to the Courier, “ the wind, early on Thursday morning, commenced blowing heavily from the N. B. and E. N. E., bat veered towards night to the north, blowiog most of the time with great violence. In consequence, how ever, of Us veering to the north, wo are gratified to state that tbe shipping in ths harbor sostained little or no Iqjni7, except tbe brig Adela, lying at Atlantlo wharves, ready for sea, wbloh had hor starboard sido badly chafed. The ship General ParkhlU, lying at Brown’s wharves, had her starboard quarter timber head torn off; and the schooner Hetewan, from West Point Hill, with a cargo of clean rice, was driven ashore on James Island Beach, but we have not learn- •d what amount of injury ahe may have sustained. Several other vessels bavo received trifling Injuries, but nothing worthy of notice. “The Steam propeller William Penn, Captain Hortixxb, from New-York, the French ship Besettc ot Peconl, from Havana, a ship unknown, and a Spanish torque, were all off tbe Bar when tbe gale commenced, hot stood ont to sea. Tbe William Penn was seen yesterday off tbe Bar by Capt. Babdxx, of tbe steamer Calhoun, with her colors flying for a pi lot. The French ship had a pilot on board. VOapt. PAim, of the steamer Col. Myers, arrived yesterday, with materials from the brig Nancy Pratt, previooaly reported as beingasbora on Cape Remain, reporta that tbe gals on Thursday wm very heavy at tbe Cape t and that bis steamer was driven ashore, but got of with some exertion. Capt. Pains wm prevented from doing ranch work at tbe Nancy Pratt, to oonaequeuos of ibe boisterous state of tbs weather. He passed Bwrjmwt’* sloop sunk at Lavender Point, From the Chattanooga Advertiser, Gentle Words. They are like the morning dew refreshing nature’s foliago; invigorating it* dress of green which the acorcning ray* of yesterday’* *un had robbed of its wonted lustre, and soon assume* it* accustomed as pect. Ho a gentle word to the erring softens his heart und brings repentant thought*; crime looses its pleasing garb, und surprise creep* in npon hi* tnind that ho waa ever enlisted within Its pules, unconsci ous of tbe evil larking beneath its alluring curtains. Gentle word* aro hi* reformer; but how different had been hla future if a person, in hi* moments of dis grace, had approached with ttevere words and repri mands, compelling a reformation, by teiliug of tho re proach upon his name and exclusion from the society of kindred spirits ! Would this avail with sinful man ? Would it lead him to reflect and amend his ways ? No, tho heart i* not softened and a change visible. It revolts at these sayings aud exclaims, ’-Art thou, 0 man, my superior, that thou shouldst ap proach iu disguise, and, by commanding voico and severe words, seek to convince mo of my inferiority?” A don’t-care feeling pervades his mind—words, In de- Uance of self, suggest that he is os good it* others, aud let every one take care of his own ucts and all will be well. In tbe secret* of his heart, he is con vinced of doing wrong, but the reproof from an over bearing tongue, mingled with the pride of bis nature, drowned all self-reproach, and hardened rather than led him to uprightness. Speak gentle ifthouwouldst reform an erring one ; let thy word* fail upon his ear like gentle showers, and they will penetrate his heart; moisten the callous feelings ; and a* tho softening in fluences are imbied, they will be visible, ia the heav ing bosom, mingled with sighs, tho dewy eye and re pentant word. Now, be assured thou hast gained thy brother, and he follows thy dictates. Then, in all thy dealings with mankind, if dilleronce of opinion arlKo, subdue such with gcntlo word*. It will take a moment, and anger will vaulsb. Gentle words flow from a pure heart, not fashioned after tbe world, but ruled by an unseen hand, guided by principles of right. They are motives to do a fel low creature good by persuading him to retrace an erring step. Gentle words from a mother dear! how they subdue all childish disputes, and ring In the ear In after years! How we hail each word as it falls from those lips quivering by age and treasure thorn as sacred, becauso they aro gentle, mild and kind! We know they spring from a loving heart. Long af ter they are hushed by the ruthless hand ot Death, do we think and profit by them. Then should we not cultivate gentle words if they exert so powerful an influence? Sow then deep in the youthful heart.and as the first bud appears guard it with care from all obnoxious weeds so apt to find root In the heart— Moisten it with the dews of affection, and by careini pruning, although at first it may have the appear ance ot a tender plant, it will become hardy, firmly rooted, and a part of thy nature. Reader, if thou bast secured this plant and art glorying iu thy suc cess, guard it well, and let it* influence be extended to all within tby range, and happiness will be thino ; and finally it will to said unto tbee, ” Blessed are the peace makers: for they shall be called tbe children of God.” Rillie. The Last Reason—Littio Eddy, ou his way to school, frequeutly loitered by a small stream whiob bo was obligod to pass, to witness the gambols of his playmates while bathing—the water being of suffi- ciont depth in some places for that purpose. Fearing accident might bofalj him, his mother bad told him novor to ventnro near, and in strong terms not to go into the water. One day, however, being overcome by temptation, and tho urgent solicitations of boy* older than himself, he yielded to their Importunities and his own wishes, and for an hour entered into their aquatic sports heartily. But m ill-luck weald have It, while dressing himself by some management be puts his little shirt wrong side out entirely unnoticed by him at the time; but the quick eye or his mother detected it, and divined the reason atone. Before le- tiring for the night it was customary for the little boy to kneel by her sido and repeat his little prayer,— While on hi* knees she took the opportunity reprove him for disobeying her commands : “Edmund, bow is it tbat tbo buttons are on tbe in side of yonr shirt collar 7” “I don’t know. Isn’t that tho way, mother ?” “No, my eon. Yon have disobeyed me, I am sorry to see. You have been in swimming, else bow could yon have turned yonr shirt ?” The litUe boy felt that his mother bad spoken the troth, and wm for a moment silent. However, the satisfactory explanation, as he thought, soon occur red.
