From tl:e Dutchman’s Firc-StJp,
A LONG VOYAGE!
Much has been sung and written uf the
Charms cf the glorious Hudson— its smiling |
teiilages.its'noble cities, its magnificent banks,!
majestic w aters. The inimitable Knick
•rWrkc r, tlw graphic Cooper, and athousatid
less celebrated writers and tourists have <ie
lig.it,-d to luxuriate in descriptions of its
rich fields, its bowery meadows, whispering
groves, and clo d-capped mountains, until its
name is become synonymous with all the
tr autifu! and a ibliine of nature. Associated
ns are these beauties with uur earliest recol-
JcctiiMiS, and nearest, dearest friends—en
twined as they inseparably are with memori
als of t’uepist, anticipations of the tulure,
\vc too would oiler our humble tribute, lint
tho theme lias Imen exhausted by hands that
snatched the pencil from nature herself, and
tmtiling is left for us but to repress the feed
ings of our swelling heart - hy silent musiugs.
Catalina, accompanied by her father, em
barked oa board oftlie good sloop Watervliot,
•h roof was commander Captain Baltos Van]
FHngerland, a most experienced, delibera
tive, and circumspective skipper. This ves
sel was noted for making quick passages,
w herein she excelled the much-vaunted Li-,
verpool packets; seldom being more than
three weeks in going from Albany to New-
York, unless when she chanced to run on the
Fats, for which, like her worthy ow ners, she
Seemed to have an instinctive preference.—
Captain Baltus was a navigator of great sa
lacity, and courage, hail been the first inart
that over undertook the dangerous voyage be
tween the tw*ocities without asking the pray
<ra of the church and making his will.—
Moreover, he was so cautious in all his pro
ceedings that he took nothing for granted,
and would never he convinced that his ves
s< 1 was near a slioai ora sandbank until she
was high and dry aground. When properly
Certified by ocular demonstration, he became
perfectly satisfied, and sat himself <0 smok
ing his pipe til! it pleased the waters to rise
end float him off again. His patience under
•in accident of thi* kind was exemplary ; his
pipe was his consolation —more effectual than
41 the precepts of philosophy.
It was a fine autumnal morning, calm, still,
clear, and beautiful. The forests, as they nod
ded or slept quietly cti the borders of the
pure river, reflected upon its bosom a varied
carpet, adorned with all the colouj* of the
fainbow. The bright yellow poplar, the still
brighter scarlet maple, the dark-brown oak,
and the yet more sombre evergreen pine and
hemlock, together with a thousand various
trees and shrubs, of a thousand varied tints
end shades, all mingled together in one rich.
Inexpressibly rich garment, with which na
ture seemed desirous of hiding her faded
Beauties ami approaching decay. The vessel
g ded slowly with the cuncnt.now and then!
assisted by a liw! breeze that for a moment
ripDh.d the rarfitre and tilled the sails, and
<lieiulii and away again. 1m thb* manner they
uppr* arhi and tb< Overslaugh, • place in famous
jn all ■ ast time for its narrow crooked channel.

•'lte-s,* said tlie ebony ISilinurtts, wlto
presided over the destinies of the good sloop
W atervliet—‘' boss, don’t you link I'd better
jtet about* t H.-k we’re closy U> the ()cr-1
sla- gh nmv.”
Captain Bnltus very leisurely walked to
the Ww of the vessel, and after looking about
H Tittle, replied, “A lectlc furder, a lecfk
nirder, U;oin ; no occasion to be in zuch a
Ucibre you nreatrre of a ring.”
Rrorn kept ou Ins course grumbling 3 little
in 4‘i twidcrt'.ajc,until the sloop came teasud
d(oi .itop. The captain tlicn bestirred liim
: self to li f go the anchor.
“ No fear, boss, she won’t run away.”
f ‘‘ ery well,'’ quoth Captain Baltus, “I’xn
zatistred now, hrrfectly zntisfieef. We are
1 co rtaiidv on de Overslaugh.”
i .. . . . .p _
“ A* clear as mud,” answered Broiji.—
1 he captain then pre ceded to light his pipe,
anc tSrtjrn followed his example. Every quar.
ti r ol an hour a sloop would glide past in per
lect warned of the precise situation of
the be: by the position of the Watcrvliet,
and adding to the vexation of our travellers
'■ M being thus left behind. But Captain Bui-
I Kia smoked away, now and then ejaculating,
i “ .ly, ay, the more liashtc do lcsch shjiced;
we shall see py-and-py.”
-Vs the tide ebbed away, the vessel, which
: lutd grounded on the extremity of the sand
bank, gradually heeled on one side, until it
I vras difficult to keep the deck, and Colonel
! I ancour suggested the propriety of going on
' shore until site righted again.
! “II hy, where's de uze, den,” replied Cap
tain Baltus, ‘of daking all tis droublc, boss !
We shall pe off iudwoor dree lays at most.
t It " ill pe vullinoon tay after do-morrow.”
“ Two or tlnec days'” exclaimed the eolo
! t'd. “It I thought so, I would go home and
| wait for you.”
“ Whv, where's de uze den of daking zo
much droublc, goloncl ? You’d only have to
gome pack again.**
“ But why don’t you lighten your vessel,
or carry Out an anchor ? She scents just on
the edge of the bank,almost ready to slide
I into the deep water.”
‘ hy, where’s de uze of daking zo much
[droblc den? She’ll get ofT herzelf one of
| doze days, goloncl. You are well oil' here ;
I nothing to do, and dc young woman dare can
Iknid you a hair of stagings to dime.”
“ But she can't kutt stockings,” said the
ccloncl, mniling.
“ -Not kind stagings ! By main zonl den
I what is zhe pool vor? Den zhe mtut zmoke
; a bipe j dat is and- next pest wav of bassiup
de dime.”
“ But slicdon’t smoke cither, captain.”
“Notamokc, nor knid stogings? Chris,
tus, whotc was zhe pro ugh tub don T I would
n’t hatfe her vor my wife iv zhe bad a whole
zloop vor her vorlutnc. i don’t know what
I zhe gan do to bass dc dune dill next vull
uioon, put gotozlccp ; dat is dc next best
diitgto knidding ami zinoking.”
Catalina was highly amused at Ca;.tain Ba!-
i tug’s enumeration of the sum-total of tier re
sources for passing the time, fortunately,
however, the next rising of the tide floated
them oilj and the vessel proceeded gallantly
on her way, with a line northwest breeze,
which carried heron almost with the speed of
a steamboat. In the course ot a few miles
they overtook aud passed several sloops that
had left the Wartcrilict aground on the Over
slaugh.
“ You zee, goloncl,” said Captain Halt us,
complacently—“ you zee—where’s di* uze of
peingina hurry den? Dey have peen at
anghor, and wo have peen on a xandpank.—
II hat s de difference, den, golonel 1
“ But it is easier to get uj an anchor, cap
tain, than to goto!!' a sandbank.”
“ iVcll, zubbosc it is ,* if n man is not in
a hurry,what den?” replied honest Captain
Baltus.
At the period of which we arc w riting, a
large portion of the banks of the river, now
gemmed with white villages ami delightful
retreats, was still in a state of nature. The
little settlements were “ few and fir be
tween,” and some scattered Indians yet lin
gored in those abodes which were soon to
pass away from them and their posterity for
ever. The river alone was in the entire oc
cupation of the white man ; the shores were
still, in many places, inhabited by little rem
nants of the Indian tribes. But they were
not the savages of the free wild woods; they
had in some degree lost their habits of war
•ml huntiug, aud seldom committed
ties upon the whites, from an instinctive per
ception that they were now at their mercy.
Still, though the banks of the river were
for the most part wild, they were not the less
grand aud beautiful ; and Catalina, as she sat
on the deck in the evening, when the land
scape, tinselled with twilight, presented one
long perspective of lonely grandeur and ma
jestic repose, could not resist its holy influ
ence. On the evening of the sixth day the
vessel was becalmed in tire centre of the
Highlands, just opposite where West Point
now rears its gray stone seminaries, consecra
ted to science, to patriotism, and glory. It
was then a solitary rock, where the eagle made
his abode, and from which a lonely Indian
sometimes looked down on the vessels gliding
past far below, and cursed them as the usur
per- of his ancient domain.

to their friend* in the Southern States, for their
support in the persecution now carrying on against
them, for their refusal tn join a combination in
fixing one tariff of prices for Crockery*, through
out the trade. It is mainly attributable to theln
flmjucc of our Southern friends that we have been
erfr.Tded to survive thus lar, in this most trying
situation: exposed to th* combined influence, mid
capital of the whole trade, endeavoring to effect
our ruin and expulsion from business. We plrd.ro
ourselves to our friends to give them every satis
faction in our power as regards the quality of our
goods, the excellence of our packers and the low
ness ot our prices lbr cash or city acceptance* ;
and 111 return solicit from them a continuance of
their patronage, uiui particularly request those
who have influence with their friends to exeit it
111 our behalf, as we trust the cause is one tin y
are a!) interested in and much benefit will acme
to ustV. in tii* ir friendly acts in this way. It has
been said, the Combination was broken up
it regards prices, this is true, and all, we think,
ti tends or toes w ill allow that we have effected this
change; hut we do asure our friends, that at no
period since we commenced our sy stem of un
shackled prices were we in greater want of as
sistance than at the present moment. This com
bination ot men are leaving no means untried for
effecting our luiu, that they may revive the old
system ; cur credit and character are assailed in
every shape, our importations waylaid and stop-!
ped in every instance where threats are sufficient
to intimidate the manufactures from supply!!!**
11s:—in fine, no vexation or trouble which the
malice ol men could devise has been neglected in
this struggle to subdue us. We once "inore call
upon every friend ofu free trade to come up to
our support, and pledge ourselves to give them no
cause to repent oi their liberality.

and semi-weekly, on fine paper of the hirg :
size. In its politics ii is purely democratic—Li
licring to the principles and usages oftlie liepui
ean Party, and advocating the re-election of Gen.
JAC h.SON, to tlie Presidency. Its column arc
alike devoted to Foreign Intelligence, Murals,
Literature, mil the Fine Arts, in Morals how
ever, it doe- tret act upon the creed of Fanatics,
or Bigots, but on llie contrary, inculcates tine'
principles of morality and religion only, w lnck
are found and upon peace and good will to' all man
kind—the ire it of which is tolerance and brother*
ly affection instead ol “persecution Cor opinion's
sake.” All Bigots, Fanatics, .Sunday Mail Ad
vpcatefi, and Church and >. tate-rnen are opposed
on principle, and their hypocrisy and machina
tions fearlessly t ~posed.

their annual expenses. Vessels from Europe
will be boarded at sen, long before they reach,
the harbor, and tin ir news disseminated througi
the cdtintjy with more than ordinary despatch.
111 incurring this heavy increase of expenditure,
the Proprietors look for remuneration to all who
fool an interest in the affairs of the Old World,
aud it' they have properly estimated the popular
1 fueling m relation to this matter,they will hceflt*

It dj. .* not become them to speak of the man
ner in which their Editorial Department is con
ducted—lt may be stated however, that Assist*
nut Editors and Reporters are employed at liber !
salaries, ami if the Commercial, Political, Liter::*
ry, Foreign and Domestic News, were not at least
egitvl to any other Journal, it would scarcely
have acquired in the short period of five years, a
greater daily circulation than any other paper in
America ! Yet such is the fact, and at this mo
nient the Courier & Enquirer circulates daily u
the city of New York more than one hundred per
cent more papers than any of its cotemporarics.
Daily paper- sent out of the city, are not prin
