It is I taken for granted that an interest which pro- I duces annually' to the value of £185,000,000 in the form ot so convertible an article as cotton, may, by good management, bo made the found ation of an extensive banking operation. The mother bank will be either at Brussells or at Antwerp is very similar. Both occupy a cen tral position on each continent Both have an extensive and expensive railway system which only needs a regular and direct st’eam commu nication to make these great works complete. Antwerp is becoming a fine tobacco market, and, through her arrangements with Cologne and Switzerland, will offer strong inducements for the tobacco and naval stores exported from Baltimore. It is hoped that the necessary pre liminary arrangements will have been comple ted by the end of the year, so that the trade may commence in a largo way. The American party at Spa lias broken up. The Minister (General Fair) has returned with liis family to Brussells, as also the Hon. Mr. Spence, late United States Minister at Constan tinople. Tho new American Consul at Antwerp has also returned to his post from Spa. This gentleman has made a veiy favorable impres sion at Antwerp.

It came, and the rocks .shook around me. “Hurrah!” shouted those on the outside, as the success of the experiment was announced. I hastened to the entrance and found the top of the rock rent off. Climbing over the remain ing fragments, I grasped the hand of the Colo nel, and was just going to weep tears of joy, when he burst into a violent laugh. “What arc yon laughing at?” “It is so queer, I can’t help it. The idea of your being locked up there with a dead bear! Excuse me.” Have your laugh. Colonel, but for my part, I thank God to be in the daylight once more,’’ I replied. The bear was hauled out of the cave, and we had a fine fat steak for supper that night. From the Washington Constitution. Tlie English and tlic Chinese—Items OF SECRET HISTORY. Contemporaneously with the exciting newa from China, we have received from England the Parliamentary Blue Book, containing such portion of Lord Elgin’s correspondence as the routine service of the foreign office chooses to disclose. It is especially interesting in the light it sheds on what is now going on, and the causes of the new outbreak of war, as to which we desire simply to say that many cf the details of facts and most of the interpre tations of the causes of the war had better be received with some cautiou. No doubt our government will soon be in possession of intel ligencc from Mr. Ward, and until we know something more precise, we arc very much in clined to suspend our judgment on what is sup posed to have occurred. In looking over the parliamentary papers, our attention is attracted by one or two revela tions of the doings of last year, which are full of significance. It will be remembered that at Tcintsin the right of visit to Pekin was willingly conceded to tlie Americans and Russians; and An Adventure in the Cave of .Stars. A correspondent of the True Map, who hail crossed the plains, relates the following adven ture: While our party were resting the horses for a day near the head waters of tlie Salmon river, Kcnoshe, my Indian friend and myself left the camp for an excursion among tlie mountains which towered to the skies on either side of us. We left the river at about ten o’clock, and at noon we sat down in a deep gorgo to take our I that more than this tho French did not ask. It lunch.

Of course we followed him, for a bear-hunt is al ways an exciting event But the rascal seemed to have halked us, for he suddenly disappeared among the disturbed bouldres. “ Cave in the rocks,” said Kcnoshe. as he fas tened his eyes upon the spot where the bear had disappeared. “Then, we have lost him, perhaps.” “No lose him; follow him. ’ “I am ready; but we must be very careful. These rocks are loose, and may fall and crush us.” “No fear,” said my companion. We pushed forward over the rough ground, and reached an aperture in the rocks, which proved to be the entrance to a large cavern. Wo glanced down into the deep recess, and saw that-the darkness benertli was penetrated in one place by a volume of rays. “The cave is open at the other end, and the bear will qscape us,” I remarked. “No escape; me go to tlie other end,” replied Kcnoshe. I stepped into tho cave with my rifle present ed for use, and again cautioned Kcnoshe to be careful of the loose rocks. Poised on a pointed foumlation by the entrance to the cave,- was a large rock, which appeared to be ready for a slide if but a zephyr touched it In passing out the Indian leaped upon this roA, regardless of my caution, and it rolled over. A thrill of horror crept through my veins, for I thought hc was crushed; but in a moment .his voice was heard, and he assured me that lie he was not hurt Then my own situation pre sented itself in no envious light, for the rock, in falling, had completely closed tlie entrance to the cave, and I was a prisoner, like Sinbad, in the sepulchre of his dead wife. Myself and tlie bear were left alone in the gloom, which was softened only By a few rays from the entrance, and by the volume of light further down. How should I get out? . Could 1 find the other ontrance? 1 bade Kcnoshe seek for it, and I remained in feverisli anxiety while he engaged in tlie search. If ho did not find it my ebanaes of escaping would be small indeed, for the united strength of twenty men would have been insufficient to remove the rock from its present position. For half an hour I wilted, b-forc Kcnoshe returned to inform me that he could find no out let of the cave. I gave up in despair, for the thought of fighting tlie bear in tlie darkness was no better than sure defeat. But that was my only hope, and 1 resolved to do my best With my riflo ready for use, I advanced slowly ,»riric“Rwtowmd, Akin’sma- 1 tl J,^Position) milieu nsre ** 1<H - ■ Al der's 4 Hi" om Uummin R (Dcm.) and cautiously. As yet 1 saw nothing of tlie bear* but 1 had almost readied, behind a turn in the cave, tlie hole through which the light gleamed in upon me. When I reached it, I found a small hole.in tho top of the cave, not bigger than my hat It was directly over my baad, and for the first time in my life 1 observed that remarkable phenom enon, known to miners in deep pits, of seeing stars at mid-day. Through tlie aperture above me I saw three bright stars in the sky. and for this reason I gave the den the name of tlie Cave of Stars. I was not then in a frame of luind to give much attention to - the phenomena, for my per sonal safety was a consideration of higher mo ment. I took my station under the hole, and strained my vision to discover tlie bear in the gloom around me. By degrees my eyes became habituated to tho darkness. I heard a slight motion, and penetrating the gloom in the direc tion from whence it proceeded, I discovered the dark form of the bear. He was not fifteen feet from me, and taking good aim at bis eye, I fired. A howl of rage followed tlie shot, and all was still. The bear was dead. . Satisfied with my success in ridding myself of my enemy, I turned my attention again to my own position, which seemed more hopeless than even that of my great compeer, Sinbad. I always regarded myself as a man of expedient®, but there seemed not to be the slightest oppor tunity even to try an experiment, and I return ed to the entrance of the cave to consult with Kcnoshe. After I had told him the bear was dead, I asked him if Be could move the rock. “Mo no move him; million men no move him,” replied hc in despair. “Go and tell Colonel Johnson my situation, said I, feeling that in him was my only hope. Me go—go quick,” replied he. Mind the place, so- that you can find it lg “Mc find it,” and I heard liis receding foot steps as he ran to tlie camp. . , , . I am not generally much given to indulge in bu"-bears, but I could fancy a thousand ills that might liavo conspired to keep me a prison er in that mountain-dungeon till starvation should have done its work. Suppose Kcnoshe should not find tho place again, or in his swift flight he should be crushed by an avalanche! Mv companions would have searched for me in ram in that wild region. An hour that seemed like an ago passed by, and I heard with a joy I cannot describe1 the voices of my fellow-voyagers on the outside of 1,1 “ VVhat is to be done ?” demanded the ColoneL “Can't vou move the rock?” “Impossible.

The’other facts appear to be"these:— Tin the 11th of June, before the American treaty was signed, the cominiszioners, in writing, (their letter is in the Blue Book) gave a doubt ful, hesitatory promise to concede the residence at Pekin. This, for some reason never yet as certained, was never made known to the other plenipotentiaries. There was to be no sharing of Lord Elgin’sglorv. On the next day, (12th) by way of riveting this engagement, the city was invaded. A week or ten days elapsed, and the Chinese venturing as far asthey safely could, signed tlie American and Russian treaties. On the 21st, they wrote to Lord Elgin to be reliev ed from their promise, if promise it was. Their words were these: “We have this day received an imperial de cree commanding us to reconsider these propo sitions with your excellency thoroughly and attentively. Wc wish no evasion or delay what soever, nor have wc any other purpose than that whicli wc declare. The many difficulties in volved in the concession of these points make us apprehensive that in time to come it will be to the disadvantage instead of to the interest of your excellency’s nation. Wc at the same time look forward to the dissatisfaction of the peo ple." (Blue Book, p. 336). The English plcni- potqntiary»did not choose to relent. 'He was deaf even to the representation of his French colleague. Mr. Bruce, the present minister, then secretary of legation, was sent to the Chi nese authorities sternly to hold them to their bargain. Mr. Bruce had been for years colonial secretary at llong-Kong, and we fear belongs to that school which Lord Elgin, in a dispatch to Lprd Malmesbury, describes as holding “the doctrine that every Chinaman Is a knave, and manageable only by bullying and bravado.” What at this crisis he said or did can only be inferred from Lord Elgin’s guarded language. “Mr. Bruce,” lie says, (p. 344) “was perfectly successful in the object of his vlsi^ though he felt very sensibly the painfulncss of the position of a negotiator who had to treat with persons who yield nothing to reason and every thing to fcaf.” Again, a few necks later, (p. 345) he writes, “The concessions obtained from the Chi nese Government, in the eves of the Chinese, amount to a revolution, and involve the surren der of the most cherished principles 01 the tradi tional policy of the Chinese. They have been extorted thus far from Hb fears.” On tlie 20tli of June, nnder their presence, the English treaty was signed. Aftcwards at Shanghac the poor Chinese thus, in a letter to Lord Elgin, describes what had been done: “When we negotiated a treaty with your excellency at Teintsen, British vcssels-of-war were lying in that port; thus was the presence of an armed force a state of excitement anil alarm, and the Areaty had to hc signed At once without a moment's delay. De liberation was out of the question; tho commis sioners had no alternative hut to accept tho con ditions forced upon them. Among them were sonic of real injury to China, to waive which would have been no disadvantage to your cxcel- lency's government; but in tlie hurry of the moment the commissioners had no opportunity of offering your excellency a frank explanation of them.” (Blue Book, p. 408j. This seems to have softened Lord Elgin, for hc agreed to re commend to his government the abandonment of the residency and adhering merely to the right of visit Wc have rapidly collected these matters of secret history, in order that the Americanpub lic ihay, if the late news be confirmed, sec how this new evil of Oriental war. for so wc regard it, has come to pass. ' ** IjS^On Friday last a freight car on the Illi nois Railroad took fire, und while all a-blaze was subjected to a pour bath which soon ex tinguished the flames. A portion of. the car and a large amount of the freight was burn ed. Among the latter was a box marked ‘codfish,” which was so badly charred that I on attempting to remove it, it fell to pieces, and was found to contain two kegs of gun powder. An Illinois editor with a dry humor which such an event is so liable to provoke, dosses his account of the affair with the re mark that “ in a few minutes more the engi ncer would have received the worst blowing up he ever got.” .flatters about the Capitol. We notice several prominent branches of the work on tills grand and iieautiful edifice, or rather collection of edifices, to be within hail of being finished! Of both the north and south wings, the fronts are so nearly done as to give a good idea of the richness and majesty of the style, which, whilst impressing the mind by its massiveness, please also by its cleganco and beauty. The cornice, with’ its elaborate capitals, will engage the admiration of the beholdtr. With the dome, noble work that it will prove to he, a quite observable advance lias been made since our last notice of it. The heavy work of the first story seems to be mainly- done, and tho foundations for the next tier of columns are preparing. In the .Senate or north wing of the Capitol, wc find the great marble stairway in such a state of forwardness as to make it evident that it will be ready for use by the beginning of the next Congress. There is no extravagance in saying that it is such a won dcrof sumptiiousncss and grandeur that it must be seen to be at all appreciated. Quite handsome piece of work has just been finished in tlie new Senate pcstoffice, consisting of a framing for anil around the letlPr boxes. It is built of birdseye maple, all the produce of Pennsylvania, and finished in tlie first style. It is perhaps the best specimen of birdseye maple carpentry in the world. Every visitor the Capitol should take a look ot it. The corridor, through which you enter the Senate on the cast front, requires but little to finish it; the columns and pilasters appear to be all up, and but little more than setting in a few scag- Iiola panels is requisite there. The Senate Chamber is yet in dishabille, but it cannot be long before it will be carpeted and duly fur nished for its dignified occupancy. In the Representatives’ Hall, in tho south wing, the concentric circles around which the desks anil chairs of tlie members were disposed, have been recently contracted, so as to bring the house more within the earshot of the Speaker. The desks and chaiis used hitherto in the new hall ore to be dispensed with, and only sitting accommodation.® are to be allowed tho mem bers, differing little from flic pew scats of 11 church. This is similar to the British House of Commons. Desks for writing are to bo placed along the walls of the hall, which will, wc think, have tho effect of keeping the benches in front of the Speaker less generally filled than hereto fore. Judging from (he instincts of members, as developed in the past, wc arc inclined to doubt the long continuance of the plan now about to be trieel; the divorcement of a mem ber from liis pen, ink and papers! will be found, if we are not mistaken, toe severe a bereavement ta be put up with. Nevertheless we think the experiment should be iiiirly made, for experi ence only can decide upon its advantages or their opposite.—Nat. Intel-. Anecdote or Patrick Henry. Very many years ago an ejectment suit was brought in Loudon county court to recover a large and valuable tract of land called the Fry- ingpan. It was a contest between two brothers. Tlie defendant was called Blaze Carter; Tho plaintiff was represented by Mr. Henry, then in tho meridian of a fame which can never die. During the revolution his awful voice had echoed across the Atlantic, and shook the British throne to the centre; and now that the storm of war was hushed, ho was engaged in tlie strife of tlie forum. Immense crowds filled the court-liouse, the yard, and the streets to witness the display of liis wonderful powers. He was dressed in common clothing, and enter: cd the arena calm, sclf-posscsscd, yet firm and anxious for the contest. The defendant’s counsel were John Marshall, then young, but giving unmistakable proofs of his future greatness, power,, and learning, un surpassed by Lord Mansfield himself; Buslirod Washington, of whom it was said that lie never once made a bad argument in his longlife; Edmund Randolph, once governor of Virginia, and a distinguished member of the convention Qf ’88, Attorney General apd Secretary of State in the brightest, best, most glorious Adniiiiis- (ration this country ever saw; »nd, lastly, Thomas Swann, of Alexandria, one of the best men of his day, respectable before the court — 'with the jury almost irresistible. For three long, anxious, and laborious days tlie battle raged with doubtful result. The judges and the crowd looked on the excitin scene with wonder and astonishment.* It wa impossible for human foresight to see liow tlie cause would end. * At length Henry, walking out through the immense throng overheard some of the yeomen sympathizing with tlie defendant. “Poor Blaze! 1 pity him,” was sounded in his ears from various quarters. This was enough. He came into court and said to the opposing counsel, “ I will compro mise with you.” It was done. Such was his knowledge of human nature, that he rationally concluded that tho jury were composed of tho same who wished success to the defendant, and therefore by liis manteuvre saved the land for his client, which probably hc would have lost entirely.

Any oue considering the advantages of Iron over Hope as a material for binding cotton bales, will be surprised that it has not been adopted long since.— In is security against fire, there is an overwhelming reason for its adoption. The presses in the seaport cities have been th* main cause of its not being generally adopted; but noxr that objection is removed generally, and the Orleans Press, the largest in New Orleans, gives it the preference over rope. The Passman Iron Hoop and Tie is the improvement of one of the proprietors, and is adopted from the fact, that it is found, after long experiment, to combine the greatest merits in simplicity and facility of application of any one yet raaae. It is so prepared as to require no change for re-compressing. Thus obviating the only remain ing difficulty at the seaboard cities. The hoops arn sent of any length, from eight ot ten feet, and a full guarantee given that neither the Ties nor Hoops shall break. And farther, that all cotton bound in them shall be reoeived on the same terms, at the Orleans Press, as rope bonnd cotton.— The weight per bale is about the same as rope, not one pound more or less. To show tho opinion shipmasters have of it, we give the following, among uumerons commenda tions we have: The undersigned masters of vessels, haring had cotton compressed with Passman's new Iron Hoops and Ties, hereby recommend the same. The bales being well compressed, and tbe buttons or hoops, never breaking when thrown down in the ship’s hold, or when stowed. L. L. Condey, Captain of ship Moses Davenport, A.
