Sykaci se, Western New York. ) September 7'K J -At the close of our last' cummin its: ion.' w e promised n onr m :t to give a description ofithe bunks of thoTfud •n—cur researches in Albany, and visit i.. New Lebanon—the Shakers, Arc., Sec. But we have concluded to omit what we have to say about the Hudson, Albany, Sec-, for the pres ent, and to give you the benefit of some of our excursions in various directions around Albany. Our first excursion from Albany was to the New Lebanon Springs, and the famous Shaker village in their vicinity. These Springs lie in a beautiful valley about 26 miles east of Albany, and within a few hundred yards of the Massachusetts line. Their waters are slightly acidulous and are said to be beneficial in many diseases, particularly those of tiie skm. Many persons resort here lu bathe in, and drink the waters; but more to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and to see the famous Shakers in their mountain home. There are several Hote s at New Lebanon, one of them a very spacious building, where the young and the gay, flirt and whirl in the giddy dance, and talk, very much as they do at Saratoga. The Shaker village is perch ed in a beautiful nook of the Mountain that sepa rates the States of Massachusetts and New York, a little more than a mile from New Lebanon. From their mountain perch they can look down upon one of the most beautiful valleys that has ever met our gaze. Between six and seven hun dred Shakers here live together in families of trom sixty to eighty each. Each family has all pro perty in commou, they are under the control o: Elders, and every me benefit. There are several other communities of Shakers scattered over several of the adjoining States, but the settlement at New Labanou is con sidered the metropolis or seat of government of tlie whole sect. All of them are under the control of a woman called the elect Lady. Their first elect Lady. Ann Lee, is believnl by them to have possessed power, sauctity and authority, equal to Jesus of Nazareth, when he was upon earth. About an equal number of men and women live together in families; not as husbands and wives, but as brothers and sisters. They profess to live lives of perfect purity, honesty, and chastity. Neatness, order, and chastity, are with them the cardinal virtues. If a married man or woman joins the Shakers, they must separate from their husband or wife, and leave all to follow them. As a community they have become very rich and are fast monopolising much of the good land and many of the most lucrative employments in their vicinity. Their garden seeds are famous all over the Fnited States. Many of their manufactured articles are the best of their kind; and they have an extensive berbery w here lieibs of various kinds are cured and then put up in neat parcels and sent to various pai ts of the world. They have also an extensive distillery where they prepare extracts o 1 every herb and flow er used in medicine. All of these things and many more they have to sell, whilst they manufacture and produce almost every aiticle they use. Their village is a perfect speci men of neatin ss from one end to the otla r; every building is painted, tlie side walks paved with For the Federal Union JHIriarr System. Messrs.

We were pleased to receive a copy of an Ad dress on the subject of “Southern Education for Southern Youth,” from the author, Hon. Win. H. Stiles, delivered by him before tlie Alpha Pi Delta Society of the Cherokee Baptist College. We have not had time to read it. but from tlie character of the author, wo promise ourselves an intellectual treat. U niliinglon Colin, We learn that Crooms.who was brought to Bald win Jail sometime ago and confined for the murder of George Tucker, was arraigned at the Superior Court of Washington County, at its late term, and discharged; the Grand Jury not finding a true bill. John C- White, charged with negro stealing, plead guilty, and was sentenced by Judge Holt to imprisonment in the Penitentiary for eight vears. Judicialy System. Some complain of the Su preme Court, ethers are disposed to find fauij. without knowing much about the matters, of which they complain. The primary object of onr Judiciary System should be, to have the laws cer tain, and uniformly administered. This ca i only be accomplished by a Supreme Judicial Tribunal, au thoritatively determining, and settling the general principles of the law, and when decided by that tribunal, that court, as well as all other courts, should be required rigidly to adhere to such decis ion. and carry it out in good faith, so that the peo ple may know, and understand their rights. It is in vain that tlie Supreme Court settle the law un less the Superior Courts carry out such decision in good faith, which it is believed is not always done. The Circuit Judge is reversed by tlie Supreme Court, and the case sent hack for a new trial, and while the Circuit Judge upon the new trial, may formally comply with the decision, yet from pride of opinion, or some local feeling, will manage so as to give the case such a direction before the jury, as to evade and destroy the practical effect of the decision, for the purposeof having the first verdie 1 sustained—in short, he does not fairly, and in good faith, practically carry out the decision of the Su preme Court, so as to give the parties the full ben efit of it. This is an evil, a mischief, which is ap parent to every one who has been an attentive ob server of the administration of the law, in our mber labors for tlie common j Circuit Courts. While the Supreme Court may not have been sufficiently careful to adhere to the maxim of stare, decisis, in all their decisions, vet, the fault is not bv any means exclusively attribu table to that Court, for the uncertainty which it is said, exists in the administration of the law in our Courts. How shall this evil, this mischief, be cor rected ! The obvious answer is, by requiring the | Judges of the Superior Courts to alternate. Let the next Legislature pass a law, that no Judge j shall hold the Courts in any one Circuit, more than j one riding until he shall have held the Courts in every other Circuit in the State. The increased facilities for traveling in tin 1 State, as well as the increase of the salary of the Judges, will enable them to alternate without difficulty or detriment. The Judges are paid out of the public Treasury of the State, and it is nothing hut right and just, that the whole people should share in the benefits, or burdens of their official labors. The Judges are elected by the people of their respective Circuits in which they reside, and where thev have practised their profession. By requiring them to alternate, you remove them from all local influence, either of their friends who elected them, or their friends who have been their clients in times past— they will not preside on the new trials of the cases which they have previously decided, consequently, will have no local prejudices, or pride of opinion, to bias or influence them, but will look alone to the taw of the case, as it has been settled by the Su preme Court, and administer it in good faith, with out. partiality, favor or affection. Much more might be said in favor of requiring the Judges to alternate in the different Circuits of tlie State, hut my object is simply to call the atten tion of tiie public mind to this matter, in order that uniformity of decision, and impartial jus ;iee in accordance with law, may obtain in our Courts. One oe the People. John XV. Forney. We copy from the Washington Union an article taking the liair off this notorious office-hunter, and reviler of decent men and women. Will the Recorder, now that it has copied Foi ney’s speech viliifying and misrepresenting Mr. Buchanan, have the justice to copy the Union’s reply to Forney’s speech? We shall see. It is natural enough that the enemies of the the Democratic Party should retail with much gusto the slanders of every deserter from the Democratic ranks. They did so when Hale, and Wilrnot, and Chase, and Preston King deserted, and went over to the Black Republicans; and now they take the word of this man Forney, who they have villiriod and abused as worse than a pick-pocket—they take him up and put his tes timony against that of Mr. Buchanan, one of the purest and best in this or any other country ; and tliev seek to condemn the President with such tes timony I Mt sirs. Orme ain’t you ashamed of yourselves* Didn't you feel little and contempti ble in your own estimation, after publishing that speech of Forney’s against Mr. Buchanan? You did; you know you did. This man Forney, you have again and again told your readers was worthless and unreliable ; and now when he has failed to get position and office under the Presi dent you deliberately place in your columns, with a great flourish, the mendacious statements of this same Forney! We repeat; ain’t ashamed of yourselves: No wonder the‘Junior f-el- disgusted with politics, when lie has to re sort to such means to injure his antagonist. Let him now copy the Union’s reply to Forney’s slanderous and lying statements—it is the best apology he can make to a wounjed conscience. One thing surprises us. What good can the Hoarder expect to accomplish for its party, by parading before its readers the testimony of a "’■an who has joined the Black Republicans, to carnage the national Administration! Will not c tv intelligent reader of the Recorder say to himself—“Buchanan must be right, or Forney W"ti 1 not be found addressing a Black Republi- C m audience, in the State of New York.” But tiie Recorder didn't tell its readers of that. Oh no: : t k. pt that carefully away from their eyes. Now, Messrs. Orme, we demand as an act of sim ple justice, that you tell your readers, w ho were the leading spirits at the Haskin Meeting, w here Torn 'v made tin speech that tickled your fancy ao much. Tell them that; and if you have not the acts, call on us for them. Only publish them '‘care willing to leave the decision with your read rs. VI neon.

They were much pleased with some speci mens of Mr. Peabody’s strawberries, and some kinds of grapes they had procured from Georgia. When the dinner hour arrived they invited us to sit down to a sumptuous dinner, and waited on us very politely, but did not eat with us; that we be lieve being against their rules; they however per mitted the ladies of our company to eat with us, which was more than we had expected.

Among others, we see published one trom H. Winter Davis. Esq., of Maryland—a Southern abolition Know-Nothing. He wants Mr. Haskin re-elected, so as to rebuke the Administration and its Kansas policy. He says: ‘ I beg you to allow me to avail niyseif of the occasion to assure you of my earnest hope that Mr. Haskin may receive tho vote of all who opposed President liuchanon s administration.' The President’s attempt to force on the people of Kansas tlie Lecompton Constitution is the most flagrant and dangerous assault on the public lib erty. which the history of the country affords.' Would not the re-election of Mr. Haskin be a triumph of the opposition? Mr. Davis wants an amalgamation of "all" other parties to heat down tlie democracy. Bnt, Mr. Haskin is not only endorsed by Mr. Davis, but the veritable Horace Groely himself wants him re-elected This we consider a reproach upon democracy. Horace Greely is the head and front of abolitionism and desires the re-election of Mr. Haskin. But the proof; he says: “but I im prove the opportunity ottered by your letter to state that I regard Mr. Haskin’s course in Con gress last winter with hearty approcal aud that I deffn his re-election important, not alone to onr district, but to our States and the whole Country. ’ These words surely have a significance - that we cannot fully appreciate at this moment. Again he says, ‘please count me in with his supporters for tho contest now before us; and for all future con tests in which he shall represent and uphold the principles now embodied by them.” This endorse ment of Haskin’s course by a Black Republican, requires no further comment. The F'ce Negro Nuisance.—We see it stated that there are two agents or commissioners of the Emperor of Havti now travelling iu this country in order to induce the free negro population of our country to emigrate to that island, and also to urg/ upon rfie merchants of New York and Boston t'/e advantages which American commerce would derive from a line of packets between Port au Prince and those cities. With the first named article we sympathise most hcartly. We hope, most earnestly, that they will be eminently suc cessful in relieving this country of that degraded portion of our population. Tlie free negroes are an insufferable and an abominably nuisance wherever they are allowed to exist. Several States have abated the whole Kangaroo tribe, and we hope others will follow their example, Pennsylva nia among the rest more especially. We hope to see the time when theii will be no negroes iu this country hut such as have legal and constitutional guardians to restrain their insufferable arrogance and unblushing impudence. We go for the emi gration system, and we are ready to contribute our mite to the futherance of the desired object.— Philadelphia Pennsylvanian. The Railroad Disaster. On our first page this morning we give a brief report of the disaster which occurred early on Thursday morning, to the down passenger train from Augusta to Savannah. Since that report was written, we have obtaiued some few additional par ticulars. The accident occurred about half past three ■ o’clock A. M., and it was very dirk. The train was passing over an embankment, and the track gave way near or immediately over a culvert. | Mr. Farrar, who was reported to be mortally' injured was brought up to the city yesterday af-1 ternoon, and carried to his residence His left j arm is broken above the elbow, aud he received a i deep and severe cut about eight or nine inches in j length, on his right leg. commencing at the calf and ranging diagonally upwards Mr. Farrar came very near being drowned after t' e accident, as he was thrown into water some four feet deep, and from his disabled condition was with great difficulty enabled to save himself. Mr. Farrar’s* wounds, though serious and painful, are not, we i believe regarded mortal. Mr. Coggins had both of his leg crushed and b.oken ' by the collision, and although his father was near him and sustained his head out of the water to save him from drowning, he expired from his great from the masses, and having risen to his present position by his own efforts, from au humble or phan boy, his claims appeal strongly to the popular heart.

Their house of worship we should think would hold nearly or quite two thousand people; nearly one half ofthe house was given up to the specta-1 tors, and it was crammed to its utmost capacity, | the other half was reserved to tlie Shakers, and I was hardly sufficient to accommodate them in their j peculiar mode of worship. At first we were treated j to some beautiful singing, then a short address by | one of tlie elders, and then commenced that part! of the worship which is generally called dancing, but which was very - different from any thing we | ever witnessed at any other place. Several bun- j dred Shakers, men and women, are formed in col umns rank and file, the men in one end of the building, the women in theother, facing each other. The men are dressed iu a uniform suitable to the season, the women all in pure white, and being j generally pale, they looked like cot pses galvanized j into life. The two columns stand for a moment | perfectly still, all at once a slow chant is heard, | and the two columns wave backwards and for wards in exact time with the music—the music by- degrees becomes more animated, and the motion of tlie two columns of human beings grows faster and faster; they - advance and retreat, wheel and you | change f ro nt, all in exact time with the music, and with as much precision as West Point Cadets. At a change of the tune the evolutions become more aud more complicated, long files of the men, and long files of the women, iu alternate circles, sweep round and round th" vast hall whilst every one with hands and feet keep exact time with the music. Our seat was raised considerably higher than the floor, aud the sight of many - circles one within another, of the men in their peculiar uni forms, and the women all in dazzling white, mov ing in different directions, produced an effect be yond the power of description. At one time they appear, d involved in a labarynth of circles one within another, but every movement went on like clock wuik, aud at a change in tune the two masses would suddenly unwind and stand facing each other ill two opposite columns. Some per sons may think the whole affair ridiculous, but we can assure such persons, that was not the feeling produced upon the spectators That vast crowd sat or stood as still as ever we saw such a large company on any occasion, and their feelings ap peared to be wound up to the highest pitch. Wc did not see a smile upon a single face. The Sha kers themselves no doubt enter into it with relig ions jnthusiasm, and many times they seemed fnli of exultation as they chaunted some of their beau tiful songs. As a show, it w as more beautiful and animating, than any tiling we evi r saw exhibited upon the stage.

We have announced the fact that the President had concluded a contract with the American Colonization Society for the subsistance and in struction of the Africans recently captured in the slaver now at Charleston fur the period of one year after their landing on the African coast. We understand that this disposal of the Africans has been made w ith reference to pure considerations of economy; it having been ascertained on full inqtiiry that tho cost of executing the directions of the law would be less under this arrangement with the Colonization Society than under any that could have been made with private individuals; the character and reputation of the Colonization Society affording, in addition to superior cheap ness, a guarantee of a faithful execution of the contract, which would not have existed under an airangement with private individuals personally unknow n to tiie government. As various discussion have been lately rife in the Union on the propriety or expediency ot returning these captives again to their native coasts, and the subject has been treated as if the . i President possessed under the laws an option whether to send them back to Africa or retain them on this continent, it is proper that we should here quote the law under which his proceedings have been taken, from which it will be seen, he was allowed no such option as that we have al luded to: I11 ihe case of Africans captured on the pas age from continent to continent the provisions of tlie laws of Congress as follow s; “The Commander of the capturing vessel is directed to deliver every such negro, mulatto, or person of color, to tlie the marshal of the district into which they are brought, if into a port of the United States; * * * * transmitting to the Presi dent of the United States, as soon as may be after such delivery, a discriptive list of such negroes, mulattoes, or persons of coior, that he may give directions for the disposal of the them. ’ “He it further cna-.U.d, That the President of the United States be, and lie is hereby, authorized to make such regulations and arrangements as he may deem expedient for the safe-keeping, support, and removal beyond the limits of the United Stales of all such negroes, mulattoes, or persons of color as may lie so delivered and brought within their jurisdiction: and to appoint a proper person orper- sons, residing upon the coast of Af rica, as agent or agents for receiving the negroes mulattoes, or persons o1 color delivered from on board vessels seized in the prosecution ot the slave trade by commanders of the United States armed vessels. ' The law, it will be seen, 111aks it imperative upon the President to trausport the captives beyuud the limits of the United States; and a;SO makes it imperative upon him to appoint an agent or agents tn the coast of Africa for tlie safe-keeping and sup port of the captives; thus designating the destina tion to which lie shall send them—half the proceeds of the captured slaver going into the treasury ot the Unit* d States in liquidation pro tanlo of tlie coast of these measures. Thus tho law left no discretion to the President upon the question whether the happiness and welfaieof the captives would be best promoted by retaining them in a land of civilization and relig ious advantages, or returned to their original barbarism and darkness on the coast which the abolition sts would have us to believe a realm of neer, and firemen Mr. Fleury, were brought to the city. Their funerals will take place to-day.— Constitutionalist. A Terrible Railroad Areident.—A despatch dated Cincinnati, Friday, Sep. Id,—Midnight—says;— A terrible accident occurred to-night on the Steu benville and Indiana Railroad. A passenger train went through the bridge near Steubinviile, and a great many were killed. We are anxiously waiting for further particulars. A second dispatch, dated 4,30, A. 31.,says: — The Stubenville and Cincinnati express train go ing Weston the Stubenville and Indiana, road, run through the bridgo this evening, thirteen miles west of Stubenville. A messenger who has just come in reports that the whole train, which was filled with passengers, went dow n. It is impossible to learn the par ticulars to-night. A train has been dispatched to the scene of the disaster to render all possible assistance. Horses Drowned—Yesterday afternoon, a fine pair of draft horses, valued at about tjj>3;.0, (the property of Messrs. N.

New Regulation's for the Customs.—The Secre tary of the Treasury lias issued new general reg ulations, iu which he says that no subordinate of ficers ot the customs can be removed or appointed without his previous sanction. Incompetency or neglect of duty is to be reported to him for con sideration aud action. Hereafter,, in all cases, where parties allege to have claims for tlie return of duties paid iu error, illegal exactions, or otlier- u ise the application must be made direct to the Treasury Department, by the owner or impor ter. upon receipt of which a report of the ease, when requisite, will be called tor from the collec tor, and upon the examination the decision of the Department will be rendered. The Secretary also directs that the value of sugar imported from Cuba, be ascertained and appraised, without reference to the packages in which it is contained, whether box es or hogsheads, and to this value shall be added the cost of the packages. Scuflit-rn Jlanufacluring. There is a cotton factory now in operation in a State adjoining Louisiana which pays twenty nine per cent, on the capital invested! It is certainly] a large figure, and we must confess frankly that we ourselves were somewhat surprised at it, though we have long been satisfied that we here in the South are overlooking some of the surest means of wealth and independence, and devoting too much of our time and thoughts to matters that pay hut a very small pei cent, upon capital thus valuable.

Abolitionism a Disease.— The Boston Courier expresses itself on tlie subject in this wise: “ One of the most interesting and instructive facts in the history of the human race is the recur rence, from time to time, of diseased conditions of tiie public mind, constituting moral epidemics, which infect society with moral delusions, just as its physical conditions is occasionally distributed by intectious or contagions distempers. When ever 0110 of these moral epidemics seizes upon the public mind it becomes morbidly sensitive upon Some specific subject; it runs into the most pitiable extravagances; it seems to lose all sense, reason, and judgment; it exhibits the symptoms of tem porary delirumsness. The prevailing sentiment in Eastern States, in regard to the negro race, constitutes a striking illustration ot these intellect ual epidemics, and one which in future times will I).- looked back upon with th" same mingled sor row aud amazement with which went this time re gard the witchcraft mania ofthe old colony of Massachusetts.” Tho line of-battle ship Windsor Castle, 170 guns, was launched ou the 26th uit., from Royal Dutch Yard, Pembroke. onimand been promptly countermanded, a col lision between iho citizens and soldiery, and con sequently bloodshed, would probably have been the ultimate result. It seems that a grand tall was given a few evenings since at the Oceau House, and by the way of fencing off the hotel and its vicinity from piebian proximity, soldiers from the barracks were detailed to guard certain streets and avenues, apparently in a spirit of odi profnnum rulgus'. The news flew like wildfire among the citizens: many of them wishing to hear the music—perhaps also to see the dresses, or perndventure impelled by business—approached rile sacred precincts, but were turned back by armed men! Even the Mayor was refused a pass age, nnd insulted grossly by a sentinel. But feeling that the city over whicii he presides was treated with indignity iu his person, and thinking that lie was tlie proper authority to assert the su premacy of riie civil over the military power in these peaceful times, sent for the manager of the hail and inquired the meaning of so remarkable a proc eding iff forced exclusiveism. The latter gentleman referred the Chief ilagistrate to Col. Magruder. who, on being remonstrated with, re moved the troops immediately. Railroad Iran Lost.—The Selma Reporter states that the vessel upon which iron for the Alabama and 31ississip|>i Railroad was shipped a few weeks since from New York lias beeu lost at sea. A dispatch had been received by the Company in forming them that the vessel had been abandoned in a sinking condition. politicians connected with it, or we should Ion since have known all about it, and its whole capital would doubtless have been brought to bear iu numerous elections, every one of which was especially intended to save the South. So quietly have the affairs of this very pecu liar institution been managed that few - people, even in the State in which it is situated, probably have had, until recently, any definite knowledge of it. We do not recollect to have seen any al lusions to it iu tho papers of Mississippi until lately - , and in only otic or two at all. Col Wil liams, the editor of the 3Iississippi Planter and Mechanic, who, by the way, is doing much to for ward the true interests of the State in tlie devel opment of its agriculture and of its domestic re sources in general, lately paid a visit to this cot ton factory in Choctaw County, and from his let ter we make the following interesting extract: “Were we in search of an argument to prove the practicability and value of manufacturing cotton and woollen goods iu Mississippi, we would want nothing more to the point than the success of the Choctaw factory. Starting with but little capital, lMuote from market, and iu the midst of a community that entertained prejudices, rather than kindly feelings, it lias increased and grown in consequence until a community ot near 3DU souls are now deriving support from its operation while to the stockholders it is paying a dividend of 29 per cent. It is perhaps one of the best managed concerns of the sort to be found in the South, combining economy, skill, utility and sys tem in its details. For this, the company are in debted, to a great extent, to the prudential ad ministration of tlieir excellent President, William Wesson. We were particularly struck with the quietness, good order, and sound morality of the little town. The operatives, male aud female, all looked cheerful and content, which, of course bespoke lib' ral and punctual compensation tor their labor ’’ This extract ought lobe embalmed iu the col umns of every paper in Louisiana, and we may aud in the South. It proves what we have been contending for, that in diversifying our industry so as to devehipe our internal resources and take advantage of our means of natural wealth, is found our true policy, the means at once of our safety, of our prosperity, and of our wealth.—.V.
