The A. has since been fallen in with, but until
now the fate of her crew was unknown.
The correspondent of the New York Express
gives farther particulars of this melancholy sh p
wreclc. Ho slates:
“ The A. was lying too in a gale of wind, when
a sea hoarded her in the night—washed elf Jere
miah Berry, 2d mate, and most of the watch on
deck, filling the cabin and forecastle , in the lat
ter some warn drowned. The captain, Charles
Bates, and Wilson Pariow, male, gained the
main top, also one or two boat steerers and s uite
seamen, where they died in about 30 hours. The
% raptain died and fell oil', the mate eame on deck
and died ; the captain was yet alive when the
/Buiah have in sight, but died before she reached
them.”
One of James Madis m's last acts, shortly be
fore he died, (says the Democratic Review,) was
to pen the following patriotic aspiration. Let it
be listened to as a voice from the tomb and lie
treasured up as an invaluable legacy :
“ A hire In mi/ rniin/rn, —As this advice, if it
ever see the light, will not do it idl I am no more,
it may be considered ns ism.ng' from the tomb,
where truth alone can he respected, and the hap
piness of man consulted. It will he entitled,
therefore, to whatever weight can he derived from
good intentions, and from the experience of one
who has served his country in various stations
through a period of forty years, who espoused
in his youth, and adhered through his li c to the
cause oiflts liberty, and who has borne a part in
most of the goad transactions which will consti
tute epochs of its destiny.
“The advice nearest to my heart and deepest
in my convictions is, that the Union of the States
bo cherished and perpetuated. Let the avowed
enemy to it he regarded as a Pandora with her
box opened, and the lisguised one as the serpent
creeping w ith deadly wiles into Paradise.”
CoaniEttcu or Odessa.—But few arc aware
of the immense trade of this port, on the Black
Sea, and of the exhaustless resources of Southern
Russia. The Odessa Journal says:
“ The year just ended was one of the most bril
liant for the trade of Odessa since the foundation
of the town. The value of the exports in 1837
exceeded 38,000 000 roubles, and that of the im
ports was nearly 22,000,0011. Above 800 ships
arrival in our part from various parts of the globe,
an I an oqiul number sailed, loaded with the pro
duce of the south of Russia, among which there
was nearly a million chetweits of wheat.”
A Riiik. —During the Revolutionary War,
when a corps of the American army were en
camped near the borough of Elizabethtown, in
New Jersey, an officer, who was rather more of a
devotee of Venus than of Mars, paid his addres
ses to a lady of distinction, whom he was in the
habit of visiting nightly, in the cultivation of those
\ kind feelings which love so cordially inspires. On
a discovery of the came of the repeated absence
of the officer, and of the place where his inter
views with his Dulcinea were had, some waggish
friends resolved to play ufifa handsome trick nt
his expense, which should deter him from a re
petition of his amorous visits. The officer, it ap
pears, rode a very small horse, of the pony kind,
which he always left untied, with the bridle reins
over his neck, near the door in Order to mount
and ride off with mt delay, when the business of
courting and kissing were over; and the horse al
ways rent lined until harked by the owner, with
out attempting to change his position. On a cer
tain very dark night, waen the offirer had ns usu
al gone to piv his devoirs to the object of his af
fections, and was enjoying the approving smiles of
the fair one, his waggish companions went pri
vately to the door of the house where the, oilicer
was, took the bridle and saddle from the horse,
which they sent quietly away placed the former
on the tail, and the latter on the l ack ol a very so
ber, ruminative old cow, (with the cruper over
the horns,) who stood peaceably chewing her cud
near the spot. Immediately thereafter, they re
tired some distance from the house, and separating,
they raise 1 a loud cry of alarm, that the enemy
had landed, and were marching with full force
into the v.llage. On hearing the voice of alarm,
the people ran out, greatly excited; and conster
nation entering every dwelling, found its unwel
come way u: ee lily into the household temple
where our olli -ini hero was worshipping. Ta
king counsel from his tears, and snatching a hasty
kiss, he started from the lady's chamber, and
rushing down sta rs, shot out of doors with the ve
locity of a musket bad, and owing t > the darknet s,
not seeing the interesting change in the confor
mation of his nag, it ounted hastily on the saddle
with his back towards the head of the cow, and
plunging his spurs deeply into her side, caused
f her to bawl out with excessive pain, and she start
ed off in gallant style, and in her best galop, made
towards the camp. The officer still plying his
spurs and whip to the skin and bones of the suf
fering old animal, and with all his wine and love
onboard—finding himself hurried rapidly back
wards; m lugre ail his efforts to advance; and
hearing the repeated bawlings of the tortured and
frightened beast imagined that lie was carried off
by magic, and roaring out most lustily that the devil
had got him—was carried in this stale of pertur
bation into the very alignment of the camp. The
courageous sentinels hearing the noise, and im
agining that Hannibal and bis oxen were coining,
discharged their pieces and fled as if the devil
chased them ; the alarm guns were fired—the offi
cers left their quarters, and cried “turn out! turn
out!” with all the strength of their lungs. The
soldiers started from their sleep, as if a ghost had
crossed their dreams—and the whole body run
ning half naked, together formed a gallant dishablc
prepared to repel the invader. When lo! the
ludicrous sight soon presented itself to the eyes
of the gallant officer, mounted >n an old cow, with
his face towards her tail, and this appendage
sticking straight out behind ; her tongue hanging
out—her sides gory with the grievous gigging of
the spurs—and himself, owing to his excessive
fear, almost deprived of reason, and half petrified
with horror. A loud and general roar of laugh
ter broke from the assembled hand at the rider and
his stee.'t—the whole corps gave him three times
three hearty cheers, as he bolted into the camp,
and he was seized and carried to his quarters in
i triumph, there to dream of love’s metamorphoses,
' backward rides, sternway advances, and alarms of
invasion, and thereby to garnish his mind with
materials for writing a splendid treatise on the
-** novel adventure ol cowology.— Co fa I Hut ion.

Cat ton. —During the former part of the week the
demand lor cotton continued regular,and to a mod
erate extent, botn for t,.e trade a id for speculation
account. The arrival of toe Great Western, how
ever, with orders for goods, reported to be on an
extensive scale, an 1 with continued advices as to a
large deficiency in the American sappl/, has given
a renewed impulse to the market since t\ ednesday,
and tue in reused speculation inquiry since then, in
eon jun lion with tolerable trade demands, has given
an adrltional impetus to prices of nearly all des
criptions.
We quote American of middle and infetior qual
ity liner sort; jd, and Brazil jto . d per pound
higher than lust week’s prices, t wing to the un
favorable accounts from the East Indtes of the
crops, there has been a large business d ring in Su
rats on speculation, at an advance ot fully |ri per
pound.
The sales of the week amount to 60,732 bags, of
which speculators have taken 25,000 American,
2-00 Pernams, 7to Babias, 1500 Maranharn, 1600

principally, however, from speculators. In prices
American and Brazils have advanced j a yd , Egyp

March 22—3 o’oloek. P. M.
The business in cotton was closed at 2 o’clock
to-day. instead of 3, ns usual, on account of the
sailing of the Great Western, and we are thus cn
ab cd to give a statement of the week's transac

The demand still continues, and holders are firm.
