Item* from the Secretaries’ Report*. These intereiting Report* are too long for us to insert them entire, and can only give a few extracts from them as follows : War Department. —The aggregate strength of the Army, as established by law, is 12,927 officers and rtteii. It is estimated, however,tlia* the number actually in service and fit for duty, usually falls short of the legal organization on an average of from 30 to 40 per cent. All the means at the disposal of the Depart, ment have been employed for the protection of Texas and New Mexico against the Indians in their vicinity, the force being however insuffi cient for the protection of the frontier. The regiment of mounted riflomen reached Oregon in safety, after establishing a line of military stations along the route. Tliesurveyof the Delta of the Mississippi, with a view to the deepening of the channel at it* mouth, has been confined to Major Long and Capt. Humphreys, of the Topographical corps. The officer in command in New Mexico ha* teen instructed to abstain from all further inter ference in the civil and political affairs of that country. A retired list of officers is recommended, also the establishment of an asylum for disabled and •destitute soldiers. The .Vary. —The two brigantines composing ‘the expedition in search of Sir John Franklin, at the date of their last report to the Department, •had advanced to the 75th degree of North lati_ 'tilde, and about the 60lh degree of west longitude The vessels of the Navy of the United State g 'consist of7 ships of the line ; 1 razee ; 12 fri. gates ; 21 sloops of war ; 4 brigs ; 2 schooners ; 5 Steam frigates ; 3 steamers of the Ist class; 6 steamers less than Ist class ; and 5 store ships.— Os these'there are in commission 1 razee ;6 fri gates ; 15 slAips of war ; 4 brigs ; 2 schooners, (coast survey ;) 2 steam frigates ; 1 schooner op the first class ; 3 steamers less than Ist class ; 3 ships of the line, ns receiving ships ; 1 steamer do.; and 1 sloop do. There are also on the stocks nnd in progress of construction 4 ships of the line and 2 frigates. The personnel of the Navy comprises 63 cap. tains, 97 commanders, 327 lieutenants, 68 *ur. geons, 37 passed assistant surgeons, 43 assistant surgeons, 64 pursers, 24 chaplains, 12 professors of mathematics, II masters in the line of promo tion, and 464 passed and other midshipmen ; to which is to he added, besides other warrant offi' cers, according to the annual appropriation for pay and subsistence, 7.500 petty officers,seamen, ordinary seamen, landsmen and boys. The Secretary proposes that merit instead of seniority be the criterion ofall future promotions —and that the office of Commodore lie recogniz ed by law, w ith at least two officers of the rank of rear admiral. The sum total of appropriations required for all objects under the supervision of the Depart ment is $8,111,600. Os this sum, the amount required for the naval service and maritime corps for the year is $5,900,621. The expeiiditu es during the year ending June 30, 1850, were $7,891,801 94, us which sum the ■ noun t expended tor the support of the navy and marine corps was $5,523,725 83 Post Office Department. —The increase of this service for the fiscal year,over the year preceding was about 9 4-10 per cent., and the increase in the total cost was about 12 7-10 per cent. The w lode number of post offices in tlieU n ited States ai the end of the last fiscal year was 18,417. — The gross revenue for the Department for the year ending June 30, 1850, was $5,552,971 48 . the expenditures were 5,212,953 43 ; leaving, a* the excess of the gross revenue over the ex penditures, the sum of $340,018 05. The nett balance to the credit of the Department, at ihe date last mentioned, was $ 1,132,045 82. The estimated revenues for the cuarent year are $6,- 019,809 90; leaving at! excess of revenue of $146,806 38, which is to he considered, op course, only as a reasonable approximation to the actual result. Sixeen steamships are now in aetual service in conveying the mails to foreign countries and to our possessions on the Pacific. Four more are to be added under existing contracts. The Postmaster General recommends that the inland letter postage be fixed at 3 cents the single letter when prepaid,and 5 cents wlien not pre naid ; the prepaid rate to be reduced to 2 cent, the single letter whenever it shall be ascertained th it the revenues of the Department, after the reductions now recommended, shall have ex ceeded its expenditures by more than five per cent, for two consecutive fiscal years; twenty con'* the single letter to be charged on all cor respondence to and from the Pacifie coast, South America, the Eastern Continent ane its islands, and points beyond either ; and ten cents the ■ingle letter on all other sea going letters, (where ihe postage has not been adjusted by treaty,) without the superaddition of inland postage in any case. It is recommended that the uniform inland postage on newspapers, sent to subscriber* from the office of publication be fixed at one cent each, on pamphlets, periodicals, and all other printed matter, (except newspapers,) two cents for the weight of two ounces or less, and one cent for every additional ounce or fraction of an ounce; for the sea going charges on all •printed matter, twice the inland rate where the letter postage between the same points is 10 els, .and four times the inland rate wliete the letter postage is twenty cents. A Reverse or Foivrusr,. —Congress, at its late session, created anew office in the Attor ney General's bureau—that of “Copying Clerk,', •which has been given by Mr. Crittenden to Ex Chancellor George M Bibb, formerly a U. S. Senator from Kentucky, and for a short lime Secretary of the Treasury tinder President Tyler, llow strange are the vicissitudes of life and the vascillations of fortune ! Mr. Crittenden was a law student in the office of Judge Bibb, at • time when the latter had acquired high pro fessional and political distinction. Judge Bibb now, having served with eminent credit in ma- 1 ny nftlie highest offices of the State and Nation, at an age, if wc are not mistaken, above four, ■core, finds himself in the humble office of Clerk to his former pupil. REroßeanos.—The N. O. Crescent, in •peaking of ■ recent Sabbath in that city, save that “the different plarea of worship were all thronged, and thousand* listened, with deep solicitude, to the exposition of the Scripture.— We are happy to mark the changes which arc taking place from year to year in New Orleans, in regard to the observance of the Sabbath. It is not long since Sunday was looked upon aa the best day in the week in the different retail stores* and it was considered as much of a business day as any other. ’Tis not so now. But few even of the small stores now keep open on the Sab. bath, and the custom is looked upon with so much disfavor, that it will soon be abolished.— Public opinion is becoming strongly set against the open violations of the Sabbath.” U. S. Exports and Imports. —The following statement exhibits the aggregate of Imports and exports of the United States for the year ending on the 30th of June last: Total imports, $187,217,574; (including ape cie, $4,628,792 ) Exports. —Domestic, $136,- 946,912 ; (including specie, 2,046,679;) Forergn, $14,951,808; (including specie, $5,476,315;) total exports, exclusive of specie, $144,115,169; imports of specie and bullion, $13,710,048; of which California furnished $9,081,256; and foreign countries $4,628,792. Cold Water vs. Lightning. — Mr Kingston of Baby lon, 111., was struck by lightning recent, ly, and was left dead to all external appearan ces ; but his wife, a shrewd woman, took a bucket of cold water and poured it on his breas’, when he revived, and ia doing well. Let no one forget the efficiency of water in cases like this. Divide the Profits.— Mr. Young, whose good fortune in being named the heir of a very wealthy gentleman in England, (several years ago assisted by him in New Haven,) was recent ly announerd, has found, it seems, a rival in the person of a Dr. Ulliorn, who was a partne r •a ith Mr. Young in the book trade at New Ha ven, at the time the services were rendered Col. Daniels, the testator. Both Mr. Young and Dr Ulliorn claim to have been kind to the sick stranger, and both claim the two millions be queathed to “the New Haven Bookseller." Let them divide the profits. O* The Chamber ofCommerce at Manches ter, England, has taken up the promotion of the growth of Cotton in India, with much earnest ness. The British Government could not be induced last session of Parliament to respond to the wishes of the Chamber, and appoint a com missioner to proceed to India to inquire into the obs’aeles which prevented an increased growth of cotton in that country. The chamber now entertains the idea of sending a private commis. sion to India. ITT* The census of the city of Cincinnati has been completed. The entire population is now 116,978. In 1840 it was 46,382, showing an in crease of 64,657 in the bis en years. This is certainly a very extraordinary increase, and one which has but few parallels in the Union. The Chronicle says tiiat the population of Cincinna ti exceeds that of St. Louis by 36,000 and falls but 25,000 below that of New Orleans. O’ A late Paris letter says . —“The famous Artesian WeU, commenced in 1832 at Kissen. gen, a city of Rhenish Bavaria, is just finished This immense work, of which the workmen be gan to despair, has given results which have never been seen before Kissengen is situated in a saline valley at nearly 300 metres above the level of the Baltic sea. In the month of June, 1849, after 17 years of hard labor, they had succeeded in reaching a depth of 560 me tres, (a metre is about 39 inches,) before getting to this it was necessary to cut through several beds of salt separated by masses of granite. — They then arrived at a first bed of carbon acid gas, followed by new masses of granite, and fi. nally the lltli of this month, a violent r.nncus sion knocked away, without injuring anybody, the scaffolding which masked the orifice of the well, and then was immediately pre-ented the eurious spectacle of a column of water 12 cen titnetres in diameter, which rose with prodi gious force to the height of 30 metres, spreading them on all sides like the branches of a magnifi cent paint tree, and thus forming the most ex traordinary jet d'eau imaginable. The water, clear as crystal, comes from a soil of a tempera ture of sixty-six degrees Fahrenheit and gives a volume of twelve cubic metres a minute. It is forced by an atmosphere subterranean of carlo*, nic gas acting with the force of fifty ordinary at. mospheres. Goi.d Mine in Lowndes Countv, Ga.—A letter to the Florida Republican says : “I had the pleasure a few days since, of seeing a speci men of gold taken from the bed of the Alaporha river, near Carter's Ferry, Lowndes county, Ga- The gold was discovered by some persons who were hunting in that vicinity.” Very True.—The London Times, in speak" ing of the Lind mania in this country, aays ; “It is humiliating to a nation, which boasts that it leads the van of human improvement, to be so incapable of appreciating the relative dignity and merit of different talents and as to bow down in prostrate adoration at the feet of a woman, who, after all, is merely a first rate vocalist ” More Balloon Foolery in Paris.— M. Poit evin, accompanied by M. Merle, made an as. cent from the Champ de Mar* in his immense balloon, to which was attached a bullock, bear ing on ita back Madame Poitevin, crowned with roses, and clad in a white dresi, over which was thrown a purple velvet cloak em broidered with gold. The balloon passed over the Invalids, an immense crowd witnessing its progress. The lunatics effected the descent of their balloon at a short distance from the fort of Aubevilliers. The garrison of the fort prompt ly rendered them every assistance. The bull on which Madame Poitevin was seated when the balloon left the earth, wasplaeed in a stable, where it commenced eating with good appetite. From the Nets York Herald. Important movement. Initial Meeting for the Organization of a Free Trade League In pursuance of the following invitation, cir culated among gentlemen known to be favor able to the great object therein designated to wit: A meeting of gentlemen favorable to the or ganization ot a Free Trade league, will beheld at the Irving House, on Thursday, 28 inst., at 8 o clock P. M., for the purpose of agreeing upon principles, and adopting a constitution. You are respectfully invited to amend James Lee, J. L. H. McCrackan, M. Living ston, W. C. Bryant, Edward K Collins, J. D Van Buren, Moses Taylor, A. C. Flagg, Free man Hunt, N. M. Beckwith, H. C. Murphy, H. Fuller, C. Edwards Lester, L. B Chase, C. H. Marshall, Parke Godwin, Theo. Sedgewick, R. J Walker, John McKeon, T. P. Kettle, J. Bigelow, Chas. O'Connor, R. H Morris, J. T. Brady, J. Pattison, Gods. Pattison & Cos., J. R. Whiting, J J. Boyd, T J. Gerald, G. P. Putnam, F. B. Cutting, C. F. Briggs, Sami. Bcman. New York, 25th November, 1850. Avery respectable meeting in numbers, and comprising a very large proportion ofmenop intelligecnn and experience in political and com mercial affairs, assembled in the Irving House last evening, at 8 o’clock. The meeting being called to order, on mo tion, Mr. N M. Beckwith was called to the Chair, and Mr, Samuel Bcman was appointed Secretary The Chairman read the call of the meeting and briefly slated the object to the organization of a free trade league, for the purpose of advoca ting the doctrine of free trade, and the col leclion of the revenues for the support of the Govern ment by direct taxation. Mr. James Lee briefly recapitulated the ad vantages of free trade and direct taxation over the revenue system of duties upon imports. D was a great movement, and this might be con' sidered a small beginning for an object of such magnitude. But the anti-corn law league began with a meeting of five men in the city of Man chester, who subscribed to the organization two shillings apiece ; and in two or three years it be came the policy of the British government.— The people, to be sure, were with the move, ment ; but why may we anticipate, also, the co-operation of the people in a similar move ment in the United States? It was sufficiently evident that the success of the free trade policv in England had given an impulse to the policy in this country, which promised its complete triumph sooner or later. He was ready to aid in this proposed movement to the full extent of the doctrine of free trade. Mr. Beman read a letter from the Hon. Ro bert J. Walker, regretting that buisness at Washington called him to that city, and which would necessarily prevent his attendance at this meeting. He was, however, completely identi. fied with the objects of the meeting lor the abo lition the present system of collectin the reve nues from imports, and he was in favor of free irade, and of meeting the expenses of the gov ernment by direct taxation. His reports while Secretary of the Treasury, indicated these views. After some conversation ns to the proper initi" atory steps to be taken at this meeting,in the or ganization of the league, the following resolution was proposed : Rcsolred, That it is expedient to organize an association, for the purpose of advocating free t rade and direct taxation. The resolution, and various amendments, were discussed by Messrs. Pell, Lee, Butter, worth, McKeon, Fuller, Hawks, and others, when the following substitute, by Mr. Wright Hawks, was proposed and adopted by the meet ing Resolved, That it is expedient to organize a free Irade league, for the purpose of advocating the abolition of indirect taxation and the estab lishment of free trade and of direct taxation for the support of tiie General Goveruuieiii. On motion, a committee of five was ordered to be appointed by the chair, to draft a constitu tion and by laws for the league, to be reported ai the next meeting The Chair appointid Messrs. James Lee, Jno. McKeon, H. Fuller, W. C. Bryant and Mr Butterworth, the said committee. On motion of Mr. Lee, another commute of hve was ordered to he appointed by ihe Chair, to draft a declaration of the principles and objects of the league for publication. The Chair appointed Messrs. Robert J. Wal ker, James Lee, T. P Kettle, A Ifred Pell, and Wright Hawks said committee. And, by resolution, the chairman and secreta ry of the meeting were added to both the afore said committees On motion of Mr. Freeman Hunt, the com mittee on the consli ution were empowered to designate the time and place of the next meeting And the meeting adjourned As understood, the objects of this association are—to organize a free trade party in the United States, irrespective of existing political parties, beginning in New York, and to be followed up by extending similar societies throughout the Union, for the purpose of advocating the policy of abolishing ’he system of revenues from import* for the support of the Government, and of sub stituting direct taxation upon the people, upon an equitable basis, accorting to the taxable pro perty of the citizen. This movement may be the beginning of a great and powerful element in the politiea of the country. It will be wel 1 to watch it* progress from this initial meeting Pork. —The Knoxville Register of the 28th ult. says : —“Such has been the amount of pork offered for sale in our market, much of which has been sold at sl, that we will not be sur prised if, before the season closes, the price rs. codes to $3 50 per hundred pounds. We have already heard of one or two sales at $3 75.” Elopement —Miss Jane Tracy, aged 18, Op Providence, R. 1., eloped from that place recent, ly with James Hall, aged 43, who has a wife and family in Buffalo. They were arrested the same night in New York, in consequence of a telegraphic despatch from the lady's father, and were escorted back to Providence by the first conveyance. Vailuj* —Thi New Capital or Calipor *•l* —The Rothschilds are eclipsed by a nativs Californian. M. U. Vallejo, a descendant of the old Spanish settlers of California, last win ter submitted a proposition to the Legislature of that Slate to the following effect : He haa laid out a city on a tract of land on the Bay of San Francisco, lying some twenty-five miles above the city of that name, and proposes to the State ifthey will establish at Vallejo tha sert of gov ernment permarently, to give to the common wealth 156 acres of land divided into the nece*. sary lots and grounds for the government build, ings, university, charitable institution, Ac.— And furthermore, he proposes to expend, in the erection of some twenty-five different public buildings, including $123,000 for a State house, an aggregate of $370,000, to be paid over with in two years- The State Legislature turned this proposition over to the people for their de. cision ; and, aa we are informed, says the New York Herald, they have accepted in their late election, by a large majority. We understand further, that Gen. Thomas J. Green, of Cali fornia, nnd lion. Robert J. Walker, late Secre tary of the Treasury, are now at the Irving House in this city, associated with Vallejo in this enterprise, making here the necessary ar rangements for entering promptly into a fulfil ment of the contract. The arrangement is all clear gain to the State ; but with the prospect ofmaking Vallejo the great commercial centra of California, it is not likely to prove a losing business to the other side. It is only in Cali, fornia such things can be done. Causesof Failure in Business. —An excel lent writer in Hunt's Magazine, enumerates the following causes offailure among business men: 1. The lending one is an ambition to be rich— by grasping too much, it defeats itself. 2. Ano. liter cause, is aversion to Inbor. 3. The third cause is an impatient desire to enjoy the luxu ries of life before the right to them has been ac> quired in any way. Another cause arises from the want of some deeper principle for the dis tinguishing between right and wrong, than ref erence merely to what is established as Itonnra. hie in the society in which one happens to live (LpThe Washington correspondent of the Charleston Courier, under date of 7th ins’., says: “The annual Treasury report is not yet com pleted. The annual statement of Commerce and Navigation, will be out by the Ist of January, under the newact. It will exhibitn most flatter ing picture of commercial prospects of the coun ty. The exports of domestic produce nnd man ufactures, amounted to $136,000,000, for Ihe year ending 30th June last. Os this amnunt | Cotton furnished more than one half—over $71,- 000,000- The tonnage of the United States now nearly equals that of Great Britain, being 3,586,000 tons. The report of the Quarter Master General- Gen- Jr.sur, shews that we bought a trouble some bargain by engaging, in our treaty with Mexico, to restrain the Indiana in our acquired territory, from hostile incursions upon Mexico- They would let us alone, if we would suffer them to plunder the Mexicans, They are now ravaging the frontiers of Texas, and New Mexi co is almost at their mercy. They nre warlike, and are well armed and vtell mounted. As the buffalo have become scarce, they must live by war and plunder, or must starve, and they pre fer the former. They would make treaties with ÜB , and keep their faith as long as we supplied them provisions. But when want presses, they wili mount and fight. They are a hard case.— Gen. Jksuf s lead to the conclusion, that we must meet them upon the latter alternative.— If so, we may expect a war, more protraclive and vastly more expensive than even the Flor ida war. The northern members of Congress seem de termined to suppress all anti-slavery proposi tions at this session. Seward lias called on the President, and his Albany Organ proclaimd an armistice fur the present. Elections. — We learn from the Southern Press that Hon. James M. Mason, was re-elect, ed to the Senate of the United States hy the Le gislature of Virginia, by a vote of 112 to 42 This is an unconditional and unequivocal ap proval of that gentleman's position. Gen. J. 11. Means has been elected Governor, und Joshua J. Ward Lieutenunt Governor or South Carolina. Joseph P. Wheeler, Esq., one of the most extensive ship owners of Boston, was in. stautaneously killed by the derrick of his vessel, the Moses Wheeler, swinging in three casks of nails to be lowered, which knocked him into the hold with great violenco, producing imme diate death.
