The anniversary of our national and political birthday was celebrated yesterday —if not with all the “ pomp and circumstance;” which usually attends it, with at least spirit enough to keep alive the sacred recollections. At the hour ap pointed, the Military, as previously requested, as semilled in front of the I’nited States Hotel, where (hey were joined by the senior offices of the city, the Mechanics' Association —the Orator and Reader of the day. Citizens, Ac., from which place they repaired in procession to the I’reshy lerian church, where a largo and respectable auditory had assembled, to which beauty and fashion lent their charms. The address,as was confidently anticipated, was appropriate to the occasion. And we arc gratified that few, it any, of those who listened to the soul-stirring senti ments of the youthful orator, were disappointed in their anticipations. The orator, though young, possesses a brilliancy of thought, and energy of conception, which gives promise ol future use fulness —and we hope distinction. The day passed with many evidences of patriotism and good feeling, without, so far as wc have learned, the intervention of any accident to mar its jdeasure or tranquility. I he Artillery Guards, under the command of (,'apt. Goui.it, were necessarily absent on tins oc casion from the city, having left Augusta, on VV ed tiesday evening, fur Greensboro’, whither they had been courteously invited, to participate with the citizens ol ihut place, in the festivities ol the day. The warm aifff cordial reception which wo understand they met. from the citizens of Greens horn’, and the futility, imposes the strongest claims upon their gratitude and remembrance.— We indeed do hut half justice to the people of that old and patriot county, when wo call their reception a warm and cordial one, Jt was every thing that heart could desire, or the most san guine ejpeelations anticipate —it could not Le more, for the character of the people of “Old Greene” fur all that is noble and magnanimous, nil that is chivalrous and gallant, all that is hospi table in fueling and Ingh souled in principle, had created expectations which no realization could surpass. The highest encomium we can pass upon her people is to say, that upon this occasion she proved herself to he "Old Greene” still. A sump tuous dinner was given, of which many hun dreds partook, with all the good feeling and so ciality which ever mark the meeting of kindred spirits. In the evening a splendid parly was given in honor of the Guards, by our accom plished representative in Congress, the deserved favorite of Georgia, Cel, William C- Haw son. It is needless 10 say more, for like every thing else iUttil) llttt niTPr-'t if I it UUk I .HI I uml hum. I 1.(1 tliu to he furnished with the particulars of the visit, Ac,, for publication. The Guards returned yesterday by the Kail road. Wo are requested to slate that Divine Servii e may he expected in the Ihiptist Church 10-morrow. In to-days paper will he found the news of the arrival of lb" steam-ship Liverpool, from Liver pool, whence she sailed on the Ulili June. She hiingseheeiingnews. Cotton has again advanced in the face of the largest import, (105,04)0 hales in one week,) ever made into that place. Wo think we perceive in this, the evidence that this great staple will maintain its prices firmly until the corning in of the next crop. This result has undoubtedly been produced by the ascertained shortness of the American crop, »f which fact the English manufacturers wire for a long time in credulous. We congratulate the country upon this aus picious news, and hope it will he tidlowed hv equally cheering and gratifying results. The New York Evening Star gays:—The gen eral aspect of the news is highly favorable. The money market continued tight, ami on the l-th ■ol June, a sudden decline from I I to 2 per cent, took place in the price of hank stock ; hut the ex port of bullion is decreasing, and a return of the precious metals IVimi abroad confidently looked for. ■f or the four days preceding June 12th, there '■had arrived no less than 100.4)00 hales of cotton freai America, nud vet the prices advanced S to per IK The grain crops in England arc most promis ing. and the yield of the harves's surpasses the most sanguine expectations. This, being taken iu connection with the immense grain crops in America, the continued importations of foreign wheat into England, from the Continent, and the actual snppo e I deficit in our present ru/tun crop ot 500,01)0 halt s, it stands to reason that the rise in the price of cotton is of a substantial character ami can la. counted upon without any fear of its fj regrading- As the m iss of population will now procure their food for almost nulling, both abroad and here, there will be more money expended in clo thing and other manufactures To this, add the fan, in corroboration, that several of the unem ployed looms have again been pul in trillion. The stale of trade in the manufacturing dis tricts was also rather improving, and so far every thing looks lietter. Money, however, continued without any increase in its supply, or decrease in demand being experienced, and American securi ties are stated as neglected, and of course looking down. Hales ot I nited Hiates Dank shares were making at £24. It was reported in L uidon. that the agency of the Dank of’the t’nited States, in that city, would be discontinued, ami Mr JauJon at once return to New York. lire lion. Daniel Webster, had arrived at London, ami taken apartments at the Brunswick House Hotel. In t ic political world there appears little o'' in terest. Mr. Shaw Lefevrc had been elected hv about IK majority, to the office of Speaker of the House of ('ominous, and the ministry continue without change, although various rumors u f n ,’ situations. &e. were in circulation, The Jamai ca Bill, winch caused the resignation, had p >s ;i fi in a modified form. Lovnov, 12th June.

At Manchester, especially, there is an increase I in the extent ol lalror. and money can lie there i iobtained as well as in London, without the coin -1 in! ainn which baa hitherto been paid beyond the | rate of discount. The English Stock market con ! se(|uenlly is more buoyant throughout the day, i anil 101 l oil (inn, although the extent of business : transacted in it was not great. 1,0 N no s, June 12, 1839, I The Foreign Exchanges present much the same j upp anirice us on last post day. A leading firm | still continues to draw bills to a large extent, ; childly on Paris, (inld in lairs was 31/ 18s per o'/., standard; silver 5s 3-4 1. and dollars 4s lu3-4d. ; The exportation of the pterions metal iroin the port of I.iindnii lor the week ending on Saturday ! last, consisted, according to the official returns, of 4 58(1 ounces of gold bars shipped to Hamburg, j 3 V 50 oun es of gold coin at the same place, 7 400 ! ounces of silver coin to the West Indies, and 20.000 I ounces of silver bar to Horn 1 ay. By this it will be | seen that the shipment ofhulliun Iroin this cuun j try has again greatly diminished. The lute tlen. John Floyd. The Kuvmiriiili (ieorginn of Wednesday says ; i The intelligence of the death olden. John i'loyd 1 lias been received in this city. We wished a | confirmation of the report, before we announced the doc ease of a gentleman, to whose services bis State in a military capacity have been so conspi cuous, and whose memory will be revered by ma ny of out readers throughout the country, who remember him os the feat less and intrepid soldier. Gen. Floyd, at one period of his life, had the honor of representing bis State in the Congress of the Union, and was always respected am) es teemed in every station, which his confiding fel low citizens invited him to occupy. We arc not qualified to do justice to his many virtues. Those who knew him better can better speak his praise. The public debt of the State of Ohio, incurred for works of Internal Improvement, is about fif teen millions of dollars. The Federal Union of the 2d say* that His Excellency the Governor, has had a protracted illness which we regret to learn, still continues. To-day be is reported to be somewhat better, and we hope a few days will find him so far recover ed as to be considered out ol danger. For the Chronicle anil Sentinel. Mkssiis. EniTUKs:—l cannot forbear a pass ing notice of the performance of the young Ora tor, of the 4th. Mr. Mathews. An entire strang er to the writer of this notice, it is presented a free-will offering, a grateful return for the high , satisfaction enjoyed on (be occasion. i The Oration was, indeed, according to the promise of the committee of arran . emenls, (a promise, by the way, not always fulfilled,) “ap propriate to the occasion,” ft was a Stirring ap peal to the patriotism of the citizen, abounding i with the sentiments of a mind duly appreciating tlie excellency of our republican institutions, and understanding their philosophy, and with the feelings of a heart glowing with patriotic devo tion. These sentiments and feelings were woven As to the Orator himself, his feebleness of voice was more than compensated by its soilness and the Sweetness of its tones. His style of delivery was peculiarly happy—it was natural and easy, animated but not turbulent ; judiciously varied with the varying subjects of bis discourse. If we mistake not, it was peculiarly acceptable to men of taste, from its striking contrast with the too fashionable, bombastic declamation of the day. His whole manner bespoke to a stranger, the young man of modesty without diffidence, duly confident in his preparation for the duly assigned him. Iho Oration itself, oven its delivery, would have done credit to older years and a greater muno. His fellow-citizens will mark him as a young man of promise, and feel proud ol him us a native of our city. j[ From the Kennebec (Me.) Jo,a nal. Important. Tin: Joint Commission —hi the Kennebec Journal of May 21st, we published tho letter of Mr. Stevenson, our Minister In London, with an extract from a communication of Lord Palraer ■ ston ot April 3. proposing a joint commission to i survey and set lie the Northeastern boumlav line, I from which we learned that the British Govern ( men I bad submitted to ours a “draft of a eonven- I lion for the purpose of regulating the proceed i ings ol the commissioners.” Fmil recently we | have been in ignorance of the nature of this “draft,” j but are now compelled to pay that our worst an- I prehensions me hilly realized, Wc are not able ! lo inform our readers by authority of the precise | terms ol this ‘draft.’ but can say that then (ire tahol/i/ iitadiiiifs h/e. Mr. V orsylli, the I . S. Secretary of State, lias | been here, where the Governor ami Council arc j session. While in Poi timid last week, be had l a conference with (lov. Fairfield, Mr. Williams I (iov - Kent. Col. Davies and others, who met him’ i 'bere on bis invitation, and submitted to them the j proposition of the British government. They I were unanimous in the opinion that Maine could ; not agree to it. and they regarded it only as cairn ; fitted, if not designed to make a further and se verer test.of the patient forbearance of the Mate, by delaying any equitable settlement. What action the Governor and Council max [ lake on the subject, we do not know, but under j stand that the Governor and the other gentlemen ! who were consulted at Portland, complied with Mr. Forsyth’s request, by making a counter pro i position such us they thought Maine Would agree •r ~ Disri-iniANci.s in Maim.—The Maine I Democrat, published at ■ s aro, says that Gov. Fair- ■ field has had a request from eilizens of Thomas- I i lon and Camden to callout the militia, to quell ! | an insurrection at (’niiideii, and to aid in carrying j j into effect the militia law. It seems tin* for sev -1 eral years the companies there have been enabled, iin some way or other, to avoid military dutiesal- ' 1 together. Under the law ol 1837, an officer from ' I another company was detailed to call them out j ; and drill them. Not appearing according to or- ■ I der. suits were eoitiineneeil on the last of the 1(1 i I days, and an officer by the name of Hewed sent i jto serve litem. A large number of persons, how- I j ever, assembled at Camden—got out t swivel, a six pounder,and armed beside with small arms, not only resisted the officer in the execution ofhis duties, but took his writs front him, l ire them j up- and bestowed mu It personal abuse and lein ! ry upon him, pelting him with stones, eggs, &e. | They threaten torerict every attempt by wbrnusol | ever made, to sustain the execution of the milita ry law—ami .say that they bate a large number combined in Camden and tlieadjoining towns, lor that purpose. The Adjutant General bar been si-nt to Camden to communicate with the leaders of the mob, and by proper representations of their folly and the utter impossibility of success in tin tr att' mpt to set the lawsatdeliaiicc,to induce them ! quietly to submit. Cot. It. .VI. Jou.vso*.—The \ ice President, | Col. Johnson, in answer to certain inquiries pro pounded to him growing out of rumors relative to his course touching the next Vice Presidency, aayg, in the course of his letter; ‘•I have never authorized the declaration that I was unwilling to he a democralic candidate tor a second term, if my fellow citizens dc.-ired it. I have no reasons which did not exist at my first nomination, why I should refuse the same sta tion if re-elected. I wish it, however, distinctly understood, that I have always declared to all with whom I have conversed on this head, that 1 was j not only willing hut would cheerfully retire. If it j should be ascertained lhat it was (he wish o! those I who elected me, that another person should be | selected to fill the place,” Forit.ion I’osTAOK.—Mr.Vansant. the Post master of this city, has addressed letters to the 1 Postmaster at New York audio the agents of the ■ Transatlantic Steam ship Company of 1 hat city, I on the subject of the postage on foreign letters, and of the complaints which have arisen in this country, of the exaction, in England, of postage on letters to the Continent, which had airily been paid in the United States. The d fliculty, which caused these complaints, arose, as hereto fore staled, from the usage which had existed in the New York Post Office, of putting the letters on which the foreign postage had been thus paid, it to the general letter bag made up for the steam ships instead of keeping them separate. From the letters of the New Y ork Po tmastes and Steam ship Agency, in reply toMr. A'ansant, we observe that measures have been adipted which will prevent difficulty, on this subject, in lulurc. The Agents have simplified the tar If of foreign postages, by charging one dollar on all (single) letters for the Continent, which includes the steamship postage, and the British inland postage. And the letters on which the j ost.age to the Continent has thus been paid in advance here, will henceforth he placed in u separate bag. I'll us there need he, and probably will he, no diffi culty hereafter in the steamship) Agents adjusting the matter of advance postages, with (lie British Postmaster, so as to avoid giving cause of com plaint in future. —Baltimore Patriot, The Madisonian, in reply to a bitter attack of the Globe, remarks;—“Whatever fault may he found with the Madisonian, we have the satis faction of knowing that it lias received the volun tary support of the public. No money stolen from the United States Treasury—no money gouged out of the United States Bank—no mon ey begged of our poor Custom House clerks—no money ma le by extortionate demands, has ever entered into our collets,” The Hurricane of January 7. isttfl. A pamphlet of a very interesting character has lately been published in England, on the subject of the great Hurricane, which was experienced in Great Britain and Ire and on the 7th of January, IHtiU—it is by Wm. Thompson. It seems that during the hurricane, no bird was able to keep the wing—and immen-o numbers of various kinds, were killed. Alter the hurricane, a great many sea birds, principally the stormy petrel, wtere found living and dead, in many piarls of the interior of never found ashore in that country, since the memory of man. Fish were also absolutely blown out of the water, and thrown up on the land, high and dry, to the distance of two or three yards; and this happened on the sea shore, and on the borders of the large lakes in the iii’erior. It was staled by Robert Hall of Dublin, a gen tleman of great respectability, that after the hur ricane the dead bodies of rooks to the number of .fff.OffO, (as a matter of curiosity the number was reckoned by some boys) were picked up on the shores of a lake, some miles in extent, and with extensive rookeries on its borders, in the . ouuty ot Westmeath! and that in the same locality, numbers of porch were thrown to some distance into the field. Dean \ ignolles, on whose piro peity the circumstance occurred, confirms this extraordinary statement—and submits to the in spection of visiters, a more than ordinary strong l> iiiik'l of a new window shutter, which wasdriv” cn in and broken through by a rook dashing, or perhaps rather from being dashed against it in the night in question. He further mentions that some of the perch were found as far as fifteen yards Irom the edge of the lake —Boston Journal. Mu. Bui.wku vs. Mus. Bet.wmi.—A writer in the National Intelligencer communicates the following anecdote:— “ liulw,T on ambitious man, full of learn mg, genius, and liberal views. He became a member of Parliament; to his wife he had breathed his hopes, his ambitious thoughts of what he could effect. He spoke as he would have spoken to his own soul. He entered the House of Com moms; he rose to speak; it was his first trial; his fame was at its zenith; he saw the lights dam-e before his bewildered eyes; the student of the one solitary lamp was before blazing and flash- i ing chandeliers, and his heart crept la k to his 1 hook-girt sanctuary, and his tongue could nut j uttei its beautiful and eloquent sentiments; he t failed. Stunned and confounded, he fled to the sanctuary of home, like the culprit to the sane- 1 lu.uy of the church. His wife was in her boudoir; ' she had heard of Ins defeat at a party where she was. Her pride was stung. He entered to re ceive her sympathy. Dropping him a courtesy, she sneeriiigly addressed him—“Ah ! You are the distinguished Edward Lytlon Bulwo , author of Pelham and the D sotvned. You the man that "'its to regenerate England, to overthrow the Grey Ministry. Poor thing, scared by the glare of a caudle ! ’ He was overwhelmed with rage, and shipped Iter on the fin e. He was unpardonable among men, but not among women. The pro vocation was great. This was one of the first causes of their separation; who was to blame in. j 11! Morality and love will answer that question.. I Di.w.uiK Os a Swindlkh.—Under this head the Vicksburg Sentinel of the 17tli ult. states,, that a man by the name of H. H. Stilkh, an old' swindler, has just left that city in debt to even man that would trust him lor either labor, goods* or money. He wont there and rented theS'cr : undid) Hotel, and for upwards of three months I he has been a liberal patron of all sorts of pro i ft ssions But on Sunday, the 15th ult. he made j his escape in the most adroit manner, leaving the patronized in the lurch to the amount of several j 1 housand dollars He sold out his interest in the ' Verandah, and to blindfold his creditors he took i the Mansion House. While taking stock of the | Mansion House in great pomp, lie disposed of i his entire furniture and interest in the Verandah. Ho gave out that he was about to assume the di rection of the Mansion House, and thereby lulled his creditors. But outlie day above mentioned j he prepared his family to steal up the river to j pass the summer, and many of his creditors .;c -1 eompanied them to the boat to see them off’. He j Tied and kissed, his wife before (he crowd, pray -1 ed to their safe return in the fill to aid him in | his arduous labors, took a parting glass on the | boat with the passengers and his lovely wife; and when the third Veil was rang he started with his creditors tor the shore, Hut as soon as ho saw them all over the plank, he returned behind the boilers, the sailors immediately drew in the plank and the boat w ith Filler and his family was seen underway by the deluded creditors oi the arch swindler. He will probably make his way to St. Louis, or some part of Arkansas. Ihe Jkentinel says he has played a similar game in Chin lesion, Baltimore, Louisville. Philadelphia, New Orleans (and Natchez, we believe,) and olcottr.se he will not attempt to settle in either of those places. A Philosopher, —The editor of the Delroit Free Press sends forth the following homily to his readers. "Reader! don't look so melancholy—there is better times for you yet in store, and drop that unceasing monotonous expression of yours ol “hard limes.” Why, man, one would suppose you were under sentence of condemnation fur homicide, fratricide, or some other wrong dele. — Come, now, he cheerful—it you can’t pay your debts immediately, do the In st you can. and pay j them as soon as you are able—“care, killed a | cat”—i! you have’nt fifty emits to luxuria'eon a beet steak and “fixens,” appropriate hall the amount for a con fit- h ; it will prove equally as palateahle. if you drill your mind into a proper humor. Kiss your wile if you have got one—il you have’nt one, why, kiss somebody’s else wife, or get married immediately, for acts of despera lion frequently result happily a rut beneficial in their efi’cets. If you have got any children, romp with them : if you have’nt any, romp with some body’s else children. Look upon the bright side of things— put on a cheerful countenance —keep your mind in the right trim, by subscribing for the Post and Craftsman, and if you have the money pay in advance—ifyou have’nt, why, they will trust you if you are worthy—it’s all the same with them. Follow these instructions, and we’ll answer for it, you will find yourself a new man. Ax Ixcidext !—A Caution to the La dies.—A lew days since a young lady with her attendant beau, was promenading, and viewing one ol the U. S. establishments in this vicinity, when the fair lady, with truly feminine... timidity, became suddenly alarmed by a number of large wharf rain crossing her path—and in tier fright she fancied that one of the hideous creatures had taken refuge on her lovely person, beneath her dress, which she fortunately succeeded in seizing, and held hist in her hand. Not daring to quit her hold, and almost fainting through alarm, she explained her awkward predicament to her com panion, when they sought entrance into a neigh boring house, where the lady was kindly received and shown into a private room, to remove his rat ship from beneath the folds of her garments, when, hands oil ! lo and behold, w hat impudent animal dropped to the floor ! Not an enormous rat , but the lady’s hustle —which hud unexpect edly removed from its destination, and caused all the false alarm ? It is needless to add that the fair one’s difficulties were speedily adjusted, and she soon recovered from her fright,— Barton Mtr. Journal. Newspaper Advertising.— We are often asked why we fill so much of our space with med ical and other advertisements. Perhaps abetter reason than the one given in the following article could not he found; and we think that the editor of the Berks and Schuylkill Journal has hit the nail on the head in putting forth the following, for it is much the case with us, and we suppose with others also: “ While every editor must he thankful to a cer tain portion of his subscribers, for uniform punc tuality in their payments, and for the kind inter est which they take in the success of the paper, v.et it is seldom, we believe, that he really expo -1 he papers ret eived by each subscriber in the course ol a year, cost annually more than the price ot subscription, in the mure expense of materia! and manual labor, and if the editor finds after set tling hisaccounts, that he has any thing left for his trouble, it must come from the advertising col umns. Persons who are so much surprised to find long advertisements of quack medicines, &<•., will therefore understand that they are not inser ted from a belief that nothing more interesting to readers could be tound, hut tor other reasons equally important.” A person who had drank too much the night before, was yesterday placed before recorder Bald win, of the second municipality. ‘You were diunk last night,’ said the Recor der. ‘You’re right for once,’said the prisoner. ‘I shall send you for thirty days,’ said the Re corder. ‘Oh, don’t,’ said the prisoner. •I will,’ said the Recorder. ‘l’m a printer,’ said the prisoner. ‘Are yon,’ said the Recorder. •I am so,’ said the prisoner. ‘ VV'c invited you, you know, to our anniversary dinner.’ ‘So yurt did,’ said the Recorder. ‘How did you like that ham!’ asked tire pris oner. ‘lt was excellent,’ said the Recorder. ‘And the wine?’ a-ked the prisoner. ‘That was hotter yet,’ said the Recorder. •And the toast so complimentary to you J ’ ask- I cd the prisoner, with a stride, j ‘That was hotter than all,’ said the Recorder. { ‘1 know who wrote that toast,’ said the prison- I rr \ ‘ton may go,’said the Recorder iV.

Our market is without cliange—the business do ing being still very limited, sear-ely alfbrds a cri terion as to prices; in quarters where tire disposi tion has been to sell, a further concession of ijd per lb. has been made upon the lower qualities of American, while those ranging above fair are more steady. Expoiteis have taken 460 bales Ameri can—nothing i one on specula ion. There has been rather more inquiry to-day, and the sale of all kinds arc about 2000 bags. The import this week is 31,727 bags, and the sales are 9440 bags. May 31. In the early part of the week the demand for cotton considerably improved, both from the trade and speculators, and an auv* nee of |d. to jd. per lb. was, in many instances, obtained for the cur rent qualities of American; but, since Tuesday, the market has become more quiet, and closes heavily, with little improvement on last week’s quotations. In Sea Island a fair amount of business has been done at former rates. The sales of the week amount to 19,850 bales, including 3,700 American on speculation, and 770 American, for export. June 7. Since our last we have bad a regular trade de mand and a fair extent of business done daily, though with rather more spirit in the early part of the week than at the close; id, and in some instan ces gd advance has been obtained upon the average qualities of American, but the foimer point of im provement only is now current; id advance has al so been obtained on Maranham,and id on Pernams. The speculative operations have been confined to 500 bales American or propeily speaking a re-sale here to that extent of some purchases made for dealers account last week. The sales to-day are 4000 hales of all kinds.—The import this week is 14,082 bags, and the sales are 33,030 bags.

Oficr kinds remain steady, i be import of the week is very large, amounting to 91, OlObags, exclusive ofa number of vessels unre ported. June 12.
