The New York Tribune states that a letter has been written by the Prince de Joinville, with regard to the •ntiiy of Mr. Williams, with the Dauphin of France, ■ ca will appear in the April number of Putnam’s M ..odne.

In accordance with a resolution of the City Councils of Washington, and agreeably to appointment, the members ot the Board of Aldermen and Board of Com mon Council, with the Mayor and other Executive offi cers of the Corporation, waited oil President Fillmore on Tuesday, to tender their respects and good wishes in taking leave of him on his retirement from office and from the seat of government. Mr. Mai ny, the Mayor, addressed the President as follows: Mr. Pros'dent :—The Corporate authorities of the City of Washington, wait upon you in a body, as a manifestation of their high respect and regard, for the purpose of taking leave of you upon your retirement from the exalted station which you now hold ; and in doing so they desire to express to yon their grateful ac knowledgement for the kindness which you have uni formly shown towards our city, and the lively interest which you have always taken in its prosperity, and their i earnest hopes that on your return to private life yon ‘ may, surrounded by your family, live to enjoy many years of uninterrupted health and happiness. I now, in the name of the Corporate authorities oi the City of Washington, cordially hid you farewell! To which President Fillmore replied as follows: Mr. M >j r un i GenVrtn n :—This isan honor which I did not anticipate, and am therefore unprepared to ex press iu suitable language the grateful emotions which it naturally inspires. 1 can assure you however, that I feel that 1 am entitled to the congratulations of my friends at the approaching termination <>f my official la bors and responsibilities. While 1 shall retire from this exalted station without a single regret, I cannot leave your delightful city, where I have ever been trea ted with so much kindness and consideration, without feeling a pang of regret at the severance of so many so cial ties which have been to me sources of unalloyed happiness. If, in the course of mv brief Administra tion, i have been able to accomplish anything to pro mole the prosperity or add to the attractions of this lovely city, beat ing the name of the immortal Washing ton, this reflection will ever be to me a source of sincere gratification. This city stands upon a spot recently selected from the wilderness, and consecrated to the exclusive use and control of this great nation. It should be adorned as becomes such a nation, and rendered an attractive ob ject of love and admiration to the whole |>eople. It is the emblem of our union, and should be the pride of every patriot. Acting upon these views, I have cheer fully lent all my efforts to beautify and adorn it, not lucreh for the sake of the residents of the city, but as an object of just national pride, and as a means of” strength ening our glorious Union. With my profound acknowledgments for this signal mark of your respect, and my sincere prayers for the continued prosperity of your city, I bid you an affec tionate farewell. Ericsson on the Ohio .and Mississippi. —We learn lhat on the Ohio and Mississippi the liveliest interest is manifested iu relation to the caloric engine, and that one wealthy firm in Cincinnati have determined to build a first-class boat, to be propelled by hot air. Should the experiment prove successful, of which there cannot be a doubt, an entire revolution will be made in the motive power to be used on that great artery of commerce. We shall then have no more wholesale scalding of men, women, and children ; no more man gling and disfiguring them fbrlife; iu short, no further chronicling of those horrible disasters and explosions which are of such freequent occurrence on the western rivers, and which cause the blood of the nation to run cold. Those who have not seen the Ericsson engine in actual operation are, naturally enough, less sanguine as to its practicability than those who have. We are of the latter, aud rank ourselves among those who believe that the days of steam are numbered ; and that so soon as an engine shall be produced, as several will be with in the next six months, capable of propelling a vessel at the rare of twelve miles an hour, that moment steam j>ower gets its final spiietu*. Timid gentlemen need then have no further apprehension about tbe engine’s “bilingher buster; ’for, as was wittily remarked in our hearing bv an eminent g-.ailam,m ou board the Kricxx'in on her last trip, there will be “no more danger of that than of blowing off the crown of your hat by the force of your imagination. C/uri r. The Caloric Ship Ericsson.— We have no wish to say a word against the new method of propulsion that is about to be tested in its application to the Eriscson, which vessel, in the course of a short period, may be expected to arrive in this country from America. All that we wish to draw attention to, without disparage ment to any successful modification that Capt. Ericsson may put in operation connected with heated air us a motive power, is the fact, that the invention, said to be his, is not new. About thirty years ago, a vessel named the Highland Lad, that many of ottr readers will remember as a passage boat on the Clyde, was fitted up by Messrs. Claud, Girdwood A Cos., of this city, with a caloric engine, the invention, we believe, of the Rev. Mr. Stirling, now minister of a parish—Galston, we think—near Kilmarnock. This engine propelled the vessel at the moderate rate that gave satisfaction in those days, being estimated as working to twenty horse power, It was subsequently removed from the vessel In consequence of the working parts yielding to the en ormous heat, and thereby becoming soft, and giving way, and its place was supplied bv an ordinary steam engine. We fear that Capt. Ericsson’s engine will labor under a like disadvantage ; but be that as it may, he must content himself as ranking in this country as the mere modifier of the invention of Mr. S irling, whose caloric engine tve saw working regularly in Dun dee, in 1 -44, in a factory.— GL’ujow {Scotland) Adcer t us r. A Cons iexhious Patient. —A dentist of high repu tation, living on the Boulevard at Paris, was lately as tonished by a somewhat novel and curious incident. Every day at precisely the same hour his door-bell was rung with furious violence. This of itself was not par ticularly astonishing to one accustomed to receive visi tors whose pains might readily Ibrget the courtesies due to bell pulis, and whose movements were naturally con vulsive. But on running to the door in answer to the imperative summons, the domestic every day found no visitor, but iustead, upon the mat a five franc piece, placed there by some unknown hands. This mysteri ous charity continued several days in succession, and was finally discovered by the artifice of waiting behind the door for the mysterious riiiger. This was found to be no other than an unhappy subject who came every day to hbie a tooth drawn, from the pain of which he suffered terribly. But on arriving at the dentist’s door, he found, as ail ihe world has often before found, that his aching tooth suddenly ceased to annoy him, an effect which he readily attributed to the sudden approach of the ojoerator, whom with fastidious honesty he thus re paid. The dentist, who by the way, whs equally honest, tiad the greatest difficulty in persuading his eccentric patron to accept the restitution of the money, which he thought but a feeble remuneration for such efficacious consultation. “Oi k Best Society ’’ — We have lately been put in possi-jmoii ot an incident, of actual occurrence, r.l .hough we should not dare to reveal its locality, which illustrates in the most faithful and forcible manner the ignorance which is too apt to exist iu the self-styled “upi*T circles ” A gentlemen of education and refinement became in terested in a voung lady of high standing in fashionable life, whom he had met at an evening party.—Aciiug upon an impulse common to lovers, he soon after paid her a visit and found her iu the parlor enjoying In r u( wh rtftn dltj. upon a velvet soia, surrounded by all the appurtenances of elegant luxury. Tlie usual civili ties incident to such an occasion having been exchang ed, and conversation fairly commenced, the gentleman ventured *o enquire of the lady as to the employment of her time, rihe replied, languidly, “in reading and wri ting.” “Ah! lending —plenty of rare books 1 see, and writing—Poetry?” “No sir. “I'roae?” “No sir.”— “Blank verse, perhaps?” “No sir—tine hand.” Is it ncceraurv for us to add that the approximate suitor made a liaslv exit —leaving his anticipated proposal mi st d.dried and unsung.”— Llif. Erprt**. Tub President and Father Ritchie —On lhe morn ing after the General’s arrival, while getting shared at h barber’s shop, Father Ritchie stepped in, and was in formed of the arrival. “Well,” said the venerable edi tor, “i don’t care w hether he has or not. 1 have no favors to ask. 1 only want to get shaved.” “Glad of it,” replied the General. “I am happy to see you, Mr. Ritchie.” So they say. • r ~” There are forty patients now confined in tlie Ohio Lunatic Asvlum, wbo are victims of the spirit-rapping del sion and knavery.
