NEW 8 ITEMS. [From the Washington Union.] \ APPOINTMENTS BY THE PRESIDENT. Buckingham Smith, of Florida, secreta ry of the legation at Madrid, in the place of Horatio J. Perry, recalled. J. Blake, commissioner o f Public Buildings, in the place of B. B. French, resigned. New York, June 6.—lt is reported that a duel has been fought between two gentlemen of this city, named Leaven worth and Breckenr dge, resulting in the death of the former, and severe wounding of the latter. It is stated that Leaven worth was the challenger, owing to offen sive remarks made at the Shakespeare Club. Henry Ward Beecher calls Garrison “my dear brother Garrison,” and Garrison publishes a communication in his Liberator, in which lie says, “If God has the power to abolish slavery, and does not, he is a very great scoundrel.” It is evident that some thing else needs abolishing bes ides slavery. —W. Y. Mirror. Buffalo, June s.—Mr. Masten, the regular democratic candidate, is elected judge, over Houghton, the know nothing candidate, by two thousand majority. ....An ingenius chemist has sent a bottle of London fog to the Paris Exhibi tion, as a specimen of the raw material. Commencing Late.— On the recent, election day in Virginia, a resident of Hampshire c.runty,aged 88 years, cast his /irs/vote; and the Romney Intelligencer states that he gave it for Mr. Wise. .... The Mobile Advertiser says that ripe peaches were offered for sale in that city on Monday last. The Advertiser adds that they had a lamentable appear arfee of premature age, as if their growth qad been stimulated by unnatural means. The Governor of Arkansas has ap pointed James M. Brown Swamp Land Commission, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Col. Noland. Brevet Capt. Schuyler Hamilton, of the 6th U. S. Infantry, has resigned. Frost in New York. — The Albany Eve ning Journal says there was a pretty se vere frost in the central part of the State of New York on the night of the 2Gth ult. ....We clip the following paragraph in regard to the spread of Mormonism in Texas, from the State Gazette-. The counties of Leon and Madison are still the scene of Mormon excitement, and we are sorry to say, that the Mormon [ireachers are not without success. We earn that several men and women have joined the new church, and that they are fully impressed with the belief that the “strong in the faith ” can cure the disea ses, heal the wounded, give sight tp the blind, and that they can speak in unknown tongues. They are very zealous and swal low the plurality of wives, and every othei, monstrosity, as sound djetrme and good example to society. We would not be surprised to find some missionaries at Aus tin shortly. .... Something new was learned by New York State Engineers, in the use of the first locomotive run upon the Copiapo Rail Road.in Chili, South America. This was, that there is water whose boiling is quite as much a process of making stone, as one of generating steam.' They were aston ished down there to observe the difficulty of getting up steam, within a week after . •the engine was put upon the road. The machine soon become nearly useless Ou examination, a deep deposite of stone, hard enough on its lower side to scratch glass, • was discovered upon the sides and bottom of the boiler and its flues. Tests, chemi cally applied, showed that it was composed of magnesia, carbonate of lime, and earth ly matter. Subsequentobservationsproved that the water or the country deposited this scale in steam boilers at the rate of one quarter of an inch per week. To ob viate this great, difficulty the Rail Road Company was obliged to distil sea water for the use of their locomotives.—Charles ton Courier. ... .The defeat of the abolitionists in the election held in Kansas on the 22d ult., has had the effect to allay all excite ment on the slavery question in that re gion, and the people of the Territory, ac cordingto the intelligence recently receiv ed, had dropped politics and taken to their ordinary occupations. In Nebraska, the proscriptive action of the emigrant aid faction had aroused a spirit of resis tance, and wo hear .of public mootings being held, resolutions passed and address es published, advocating the establishment of a slave State in the Southern portion of that Territory. In fact several families have gone there already with their slaves, ■ and there they intend to remain.—Charles ton Courier. Friend Hooper, of the Mail, dis courses thus about Samuel’s misfortunes iu Virginia: “Samuel? Samuel!”—Sam isdecidedly down in the mouth to day. He evidently thinks that his bread & butter has eluded his graspand fallen into thedirt. We shall ’not go so far as to say that, like other truculent youths in fits of disapointment, he weeps aud says bads words, but it is patent that he makes “ugly faces” and is ill content with himself and the world at largo. Vir ginia was his bread aud butter—nay, his slice of plum-cake—and lo! a bigger boy [with an “unwashed” face] hath taken it* away. Sam yet swears quoad the cake, that he a trill have it,’ ride the Journal of this morning] when in point of fact he kuows full well that he can’tj;ft it. This is silly. Sam is a big boy, and he must’ behave. He is a spoiled boy, too; he has been indulged too much and he “takes on “ about his first considerable reverse. The eobler who tried to kill Napoleon has been tried, convicted and condemned but without extracting from him any par ticulars as to his motive or his co-conspira tors It has been discovered that he was in London when Louis Napoleon was there, and that measures . were taken to effect the object during his passage from the palace to the Mansion House, but hap ily they were frustrated. Pianori exhita ited no feeling at the trial. His expref sion was one of decision, -but calm, and rather sorrowful His face was pale, probably its natural color, but did not ap- Sear disturbed by passion or fear. Two ays after his conviction, he signed an appeal to the Court of Cassation, which would be decided on the llth or 12th.— It was said that he had agreed to sign a SMtiticn for pardon, and hence it Was in err «d that he could make disclosures. INSECTS INJURIOUS AND BENEFICIAL TO VEGETA TION. Mr. Mason, Commissioner of Patents, has had employed Mr. Townsend Gloyer an artist and naturalist of distinction, for the purpose of investigating the habits of the insects injurioustud beneficial to err and illustrating the same with the view oi describing them with the remedies for their diminution or destruction, and all other information on the subject, in the agricultural reports. He has recently left for Florida, where lie will pass several months, studying the insects pernicious or beneficial to rice, tobacco, sugar cane, or ange, and the cotton plant, and also to dis cover the cause and remedy, if practicable, of the white rot in the live oak. Mr. Glover has been engaged daring the year past in watching the operations of the rice and cotton insects in the Carolinas, Geor gia, and Alabama, the corn and grain in- the Middle and Nortb<r.i States, and the insects attacking vines and fruit trees in general, as well as numerous in sects beneficial to the farmer. Many of the insects referred to he has engraved on stone, which are now in progress, of printing, and will illustrate the next agri cultural report. As this subject is onp of unusual interest, and will tend to the ben efit-of all section of the Union, we trust the indefatigable efforts of this gentleman will receive the hearty co-operation of the agriculturists throughout the coitntry, and' I his labors be crowned with success.— ■ Union. THE CUT AND WIRE WORMS. The white grub or cut worm has been very destructive in my corn-field and also the wire worm. Year before last they came so thick that I could pick a handful from the furrow in going four rods. So soon after planting, and before the corn was up I put on every - hill about a gill of ashes, lime and salt, mixed together, The compost was in proportion a bushel of ash-' es, a peck of lime, and four quarts of salt: i My corn camo up looked fine, and at the first hoeing scarcely a hill was touched by the grub. They worked a little after, but did not destroy ten hills to the acre. If any are likely to be troubled the present season, I would advise them to try this. —Rural New- Yorker SCENE AT THE GATE OF PARADISE. A poor tailor being released from this troublesome world and a sc Iding wife, appealed at the gate ot Paradise. “Peterasked him if he had ever been to purgatory ?” “No,” said the tailor, “but I have been married.” “Oh,” said Peter, “that is all the same.” The tailor had scarcely got in -before • a fat turtle eating aldermau-came puffing and blowing. “Hallo, there, you fellow,” said he, “open the door.” “Not so fast,” said Peter, “have you ever been to purgatory?” “No,” said the aiderman, “but what is it to the purpose? You let in that- halt starved tai'or, and he has been no more to purgatory than I have ” “ But he has been married,” said Pe ter. “Marri dI” exclaimed the “I have been married twice.” “Then please go back again,” said Pe ter ; “paradise is no place for fools.” 9®“ When Dr. Rush was a young man. he was invited to dine in company with Robert Morris, a man celebrated for the part he took in .the,Am trican Revolution, that the company had wai r ted sometime for Mr.-Morris, who, on his appearance, apologized for detaining them ly saying he had been engaged in reading a sermon of a'clergyman who had just gone England to receive orders. “Well, Mr. Morris,” said the Doctor, “how did you like the sermon ? I have heard it highly extolled.’’ “Why, Doctor,’’ said he, “I did not like it at all. It’s too smooth and tame for me.” “Mr. Morris,” replied thcDoctor, “what sort a sermon do you like ?” “1 like,sir,” replied Mr. Morris, “that kind of preaching which drives a man in to the corner of his pew, and makes him think the devil’s after him.” THE RUST IN WHEAT- An old farmer —an inteli.ent friend who was cultivating the soil successfully years; and years ago, informs the editor of the Fayetteville Observer that llust in Wheat need not be feared before the last of this month. Watch closely, ami as soon as it appears, commcnee cutting—don’t delay but begin at once—and the Rust, will die in one hour from the time the Whe it falls. The nutritive juoes in the stalk will rush to the heads, and the grain thus m inaged will be nearly as good, if not quite, as that which is left standing to arrive at maturity undisturbed by Rust. The informant ] speaks from experience. One year he lost : his entire crop ip consequence of the rav ages of thh Rust; during another, he saved it by the course here indicated. Corn.-—An ide has been advanced by a friend who has tried it, wtich to us is new Here it is: After harvesting the Gats, if yeti need more feed than they af ford, sow the field iu Corn, and drill it in let it. Our informant says that this food is decidedly better than Oats, and what is j more, the stock prefer it Those to whom Iwe have mentioned it to think the plan a good one. It is worth a trial; particular I ly if the indications eontinu- to point toa | short Oat crop.— Fayetteuille Observer. • Six Degrees of Crime —Who steals a million is only a financier Who steals a half million is only a defaulter. Who steals a quarter of n million is a swindler. Who steals a hundred a rogue. ’ Who steals fifty thousand is a knave. But he who steals a pair of boots or a .loaf of bread, is a scoundrel of the .deepest dye, and deserves to be lynched. .... Mr. S. F.

Scarcely anything more characteristic . of Mr. Randolph is recorded of him in any of his biographies, than in the follow r ing inckleut. which occurred on the m'orn f ing he was to leave for England, on his last visit to'that country 'lhe steamer 1 was awaiting to convey passengers when r his friend calls upon him I I ‘ Randolph,” he says, “in the name of >1 Heaven, what is the matter! Do you I knoifr that it is nearly - ten o'clock and that 1 the steamboat waits for nobody? Why, i-1 you are not even dressed yet. “I can’t help it, sir,’’ replied he, “I’m . all confusion this morning; everything goes wrong; even my memory has gone a . woolgathering. lam just writing a fare- - well address to my constituents, and I’ve forgotten the exact woids of a quotation . fiom the Bible, which 1 want to use, and . as I quote correctly, cannot clpse my letter until 1 find the passage; but, strange to say, I forgot both the chapter and the verse. I never was in fault before, sir. What shall I do?’’ “Do you remember any part of the quotation ? asked his friend, “perhaps 1 can assist you with the rest.” “It begins,” said ho, with “how have I loved thee, oh—, but for the life of me 1 can’t recollect the nexj words. Oh, my head ! There do you take the Bible and run. over that page while lam writing the 1 remainder of mp address.’’ “My dear sir,” was the reply, “you have no time to do this now; let us take the letter, Bible and all on board the stea mer, where you will have time enough to find the passage you want before we reach the packet.” After a great deal of hesitation and re luctanc ■, and after much expostulation, 'the proposition was agreed to. A .rather cruel test of the affection of' I his servant John was tried on the occasion referred to. John had in some way offen ed his master that morning; and as he was j preparing the trunks, Mr. Randolph said I to him.. , “Finish that trunk, at once, John, and take, it down to the steamboat, and on your return, take passage in the Philadel phia; call on Mr. , in Arch street, and tell him that 1 have sailed; then go to Bal timore, call on. Mr. , , in Monument Place, and say that J shall write to him from Loudon; thence proceed to Washing ton, pack up the trunks at my lodging, take them with you to Roanoke, and re port yourself to my overseer-” After a pause, he added in a sarcastic tone: “But you need not obey them, unless you choose to do so. You can, if you pre fer it, when you arrive at Philadelphia, call on the Manumission Society, and they will make you free; and I shall never look after you. Do you hear sir ?” Vhis unjust aspiration of John’s love was too much for the faithful fellow; his cheek swelled, his lips quivered, his eyes filled, and he replied in great agita tion : “Massa John, this is is too hard I I don't deserve it. You know that I love you better than any one else, and you will find me at Roanoke when you come back I” “I felt my blood rising,” said Mr Ran dolph’s friend, and e I could not avoid say ing: “Well, Mr. Randolph, I could not have believed, this, if I had not seen it I thought you had more cotnpwioi for your slaves. Surely you are unjust in this case; you have punished hitn severely enough by leaving him behind you, without hurting his feelings. You have made the poor fellow cry, Mr. Randolph.” “What 1” said lie with true emotion, “does he shed tears ?” “He does,” I replied, “and you see them yourself.” “Then,” said Mr. Randolph, “he shall go with me. John take down your bag gage. and let us forget what has pass ed.” ‘ I was irritated, sir,” he added turn ing to me, “I thank you for the re buke.” Thus ended the singular scene between Randolph and his servant. John instant ly brightened up —soon forgot.his master's anger —and, in a very few moments, was on his way to the boat, perfectly hap py- _ _ BURNING OF STEAMER KEYSTONE.—LOSS OF LIFE. We had, a few days ago, a brief an j nounccment by telegraph, of the destruc- I tion of the steamboat Keystone State by I fire. The St. Louis Republican of Suu j day last, furnishes the following particu lars of the disaster. It appears that four I lives were lust: ” he steamer Keystone State was burnt I at Florence, a landing on the Illinois river Thursday night last, between twelve and i one o’clock. Thefireoriginatedimniediate i ly aft of the boilers, among some freight stored in the engine room, and spread with such rapidity as to baffle the energies of ' the crew in their endeavors to quell it.— I The flames soon enveloped the lower i deck, and before the passengers, who were sleeping in the after part of the cab ( in, were aroused to a sense of their danger | had bursted into the cabin and encircled i the light wood work about mid-hips of the I boat, thus cutting off all retreat byway ot the stage plank. Fortunately but few < passangers were on the boat, otherwise the . loss of life would have been great. As it , was, we regret to say, four human beings ! found an untimely death. Mrs Greene, a lady passenger, and wife of Dr Greene, :' of Bellville, jumped overboard and was i i drowned The stewards of the boat—the > first named Benjamin Quills, and the se cond named Aaron Stockton, as also the . chc.mb- rmnid. named Emily Austin, all : free colored persons, are missing, and sup- I posed to be drowned or burnt. . The Keystone State has been afloat i i about four years, was recently purchased ■ for the Illinois river trade, and valued at j : $15,000. She was commanded by Capt. I Ruggles, and owned by himself aud Capt.' ' Willard—the latter having the largest '. interest in her value. e did not ascer -1 tain whether or not she was insured j ■ She had on board at the time of the ca ' laiuity about 5,000 sacks grain, and 500 barrels whiskey, park. &c. Her books f and papers were all destroyed. , s The e was great consternation among • the passengers; several ladies who jumped overboard were rescued by the crew of the , boat, among whom we hear of Mrs. Ma si pies who, when taken from the water, was insensible from fright and exhaustion - but we are glad to hear was soon resusci , I tated. f®*W?kio v a m n so me in that he 0 won’t dr>w hi b.eaih for fear that he’ll lose the interest. THE EL DORADO OUTRAGE. ■' The late debate in the Spanish Cortes. ;in relation to America, is reported more at length in the papers received by yester day’s mail. A very important part is the. public declaration by the Spanish Minister of foreign Affairs’in regard to the affair ol the El Dorado, and others, of which this country has made such strong complaint, the Spanish Government never intended to exercise the right of search, and his statement that our Government is alrea |dy undecieved in this respect. We infer that official disclaimers have made which are satisfactory to our Government, and that the conduct of Spanish officials, who ! have assumed to interrupt American ve.-sel in the Gulf, will be disavowed of M. Lu-; zuriaga are : In (the American Government) is in formed already of the instructions which our cruisers had received beforehand from the Governor, Capta n, General of Cuba, which prescribed that they should abstain from that'class of requisitions, and should limit themselves to observe those vessels which might come towards the Havana and to escort or follow the suspicious ones I until they should cuter the jurisdictional ! waters of our territory— a right nnques tionable-and unquestioned. Consequent- : ly, the whole question comes to be reduced , to the appreciation of the fact, which may j indeed, be interesting to the officer of the j Ferrolana, but but which leaves the Gov- i eminent well covered. The latter has not I wished or intended to exercise the right of I visit, which is what might have complica- j ted the question. The case is thus narrowed down to an inquiry into the conduct of the Spanish officers for interrupting American vessels. The right to arrest or interrupt them on tfie high seasis renounced in the most ex plicit terms, and the right to stop and ex amine them expressly restricted to waters within the jurisdiction of Spain. The Spanish Government has thus ad mitted the wrong-doing of its officers, and confesses the right of United States to re paration—part of which the speech of M Luzuriaga intimates will fail upon the commanding officer of the ojjending ship. It is a curious proof of the diversities of opinion, if it may not be described as a proof of the perversities of the human mind, that a good many journals in this country defended the aggression upon the El Dorado as an act justifiable in the ex ercise of a lawful i ight of self defence, while the Spanish Government has pub-: licly disclaimed such interpolation for itself.

James Parks, who was executed at Cleveland, Ohio, on Friday, for the mur der of a man named Beatson, made quite a long speech from the gallows. Refer ring to his family he said : I have a dear wife, who has, in my long confinement been an angel in her soli i tude and care of me. I had never known her virtues, had it not been for my sad misfortunes. I leave a dear infant, who has been tauirht to clasp its arms around my neck, and whom 1 love dearly. I leave aged parents, now near eighty years old, from whose kind hearts I had hoped to keep the sad news of the ignominious fate of their son.

This preparation is extensively known through out the United States as one of the l>est remedies fur dyspepsia, indigestion, fever and ague, and a thousand other diseases which fl?sh is h“ir to ;> besides recommended by our most talented phy sicians. We remember the time.very wuli, and not very long ago, when this excellent medicine was first noticed through the press. It had at that time gained a wide spread reput 'tion f»r its many cures; and certificate after certificate pour ed in from nearly every State in the Union Those were*not like many others that we see daily through public journals, and attached to patent medicine p imphlrts, but rpal genuine affidavits, sworn to before ti e justice ol the peace. This tel’s more than volumes, for the qualities of this excellent syrup. In order to give our readers a further view in this matter, we took o'c-sion to visit the manufacturing estab lishment of Mr. Hurley the other,day from which we gleamed the following descript.on: Mr. Thus. A. Hurley’s manufactory is situated on the corner of Green A Seventh streets ; entrance on Green street. Visit the establishment hhen you please, you will fin.i a large pile oi squ ire boxes each containing one doz *n bottles, prepared and ready for shipping. On both sides of his sa'cs room his shelves arc arranged in the neatest man ner, on which are displayed drugs and medieines of all denominations. On passing through the ware room we enter the manufactory. Here we , find a row in which are steeped ! the sarsaparilla ruot ground up line, and satura ted with first proof alcohol. From here the root is taken and pia< ed in a large vat, on which de scends a pow< r press of great weight until t!.e sap or juice is ail pressed into a large cooler be neath. in which it remains long enough to settle, it is mixed with other vegitable and chemical pre parations, and. all put into a large cauldron to boil. From the cau dron it is taken and put into large casks, where it remains for several days, before being bottled up. 8o great is the demand for this excellent preparation at present, that Mr. Hurlpy has been compelled to employ extra hands We will now lead you upstairs to two large ware rooms, which are riammed full of bottles in stacks; some are being c ukud.but sec these large stacks of empty ones—thousands—find xet though a person woald thinknlu y ought to last for years they will not last the demand a month.’ Now a word from uur-self.
