Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary ? are considered as wishing to renew their subscriptions. 2. If subscribers order the discontinuance of their periodicals, the publisher may continue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 8. If subscribers neglect. or.refuse to take their periodicals from the office to which they are directed they are held responsible till they have settled the bill, and ordered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers remove to other places with out informing the publishers, and the papers are sent to the former direction, they are held re sponsible. 6. The courts have decided that refusing to take periodicals from the office, or removing and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of in tentional fraud. 6. Papers cannot be discontinued after the year has been allowed to commence, except at the op s on of the proprietors. . POSTMASTERS.—The Postmaster General has recently decided that if Postmasters do not give publishers of newspapers notice when their papers remain in the Post Office without being taken out by. subscribers ; within five weeks, they are liable for the pay. - 44iongi N sitnigact 418 OWN CHURCH. First March, Auburn.—The amount contributed to current benevolent objects by this church during the last year, was about $3,000, which is an increase of $BOO, as compared with the previous year. Of $lB,OOO subscribed by individuals in the congrega tion to the Professors Fund of the Theological Semi nary, $13,000 has been paid, the balance, drawing in terest, is to be paid in future instalments; making the aggregate actually drawn from the congregation, the last year, for benevolent purposes, $16,000. Evangelist. Presbytery of Troy,—This, body met January Bth. The report in the Evangelist says: The church in Hebron, which has not been repre sented in any of our ecclesiastical meetings since the excision by the General Assembly, was welcomed in the person of J. R. Wilson, one of the oldest members of that Session. An invitation was extended and ac cepted to hold the next meeting of Presbytery with the church in Hebron. Rev. A. B. Lambert, Rev. A. J. Pennele, and Ei ders Lyman Wilder awl W. Hannas, were chosen Commissioners to the next General Assembly. Rev. J. S. L. Towle ' Rev. S. Haines, and Elders J. Ackart and E. P. Hurd, as Alternates. Action was taken on the Cause of Publication. The "revised plan" of Education was adopted. Re solutions on Church Extension were passed as fol lows: 1. That in view of the differences which exist be tween the Presbyterian and Congregational elements in the Rome Missionary Society, without expressing any opinion upon the cause of those differences, we are fully convinced that the time has come, when the interests of the kingdom of Christ and the peace of the churches require, that an amicable separation. should immediately take place. 2, That our Commissioners to the General Assem bly be instructed to use their influence and have the Assembly carry the above resolution into effect. 3. That it is the opinion of this Presbytery that the name of the Committee having charge of this sub ject should be changed from "Committee on Church Extenelbn" to Committee On Home Missions. Presbyter' of Delaware.—Rev. C. S. Dunning was appointed Commissioner to Geperal Assembly, and Rev. C. S. Marvin hie Alternate. Lay Commis sioner, J. G. Redfield, and Benjamin Hathaway his Alternate. St. Lawrence Presbytery.—At the recent meet ing held at Brasher Falls, the Rev. J. Waugh, of Can ton, was chosen Commissioner to the General Assem bly and Rev. B. B. Beckwith hie, alternate. Rev. C. /. Hutchins was installed over the First Presbyterian Church in Racine, Wis., on the 17th of January. Rev. E, Anderson conduct ed the opening exercises i Rev. Arthur Swazey preached the sermon; Dr, Patterson gave the charge to the pastor, and Rev. Z. M. Humphrey to the people. Mr. David H. Taylor, a graduate of the New York' heological Seminary, was ordained to the work of an evangelist by the Presbytery of Saginaw, - on the 9th of January, at Saginaw city. Fourteenth. Street Church, N. Y.—On Sabbath evening, January 20th, there was held the anniver sary of the missionary association of the Fourteenth Street Presbyterian Church, the Rev. Dr. Smith's, on Second Avenue. This was the fifth anniversary of their most flourishing societ a l'. Nearly eight hundred dollars bad been raised, as I ant told, during the year for the missionary work of the American Sunday School Union in the West. As usual at this church, the audience was very large, and addresses of Much more than ordinary interest were delivered by the Itcv. T. L. Cuyler, and the pastor, Dr. Smith. This school is the "home" of the little , children's friend, Lucius Hart, and it is sufficient to add that be "got up" the sacred songs especially for the occa sion, with several new pieces of good music. S. S. Times. Rev. R. R. Booth, of the Church of Stamford, Coon. has received a unanimous call to the Mercer Street , in New York city. Rev, B. B. Parsons has taken charge of the church at Lawn, 111., and is laboring with great acceptance. TERMS OTHER BRANCHES. Rev, Robert Baird, D. D.—Our readers will doubt less be gratified by the intelligence, that our Board [the American and Foreign Christian Unionl have elected the Rev. Dr. Baird to the Secretaryship made vacant by the resignation of the Rev. Dr. Fairchild, and that he has accepted the appointment, and will enter upon its duties immediately. The oversight of the Missions connected with the. Board, and the edit ing of the Magazine, will come under his special su pervision. From his long and intimate acquaintance with the "fields occupied by the missionaries of this Society, from his extensive correspondence with dis tinguished individuals in foreign lands, he will be able to make the Magazine a most interesting and valuable paper to our readers, and be the means at the Bailie time of stimulating our friends to new and vigorous efforts to aid'us in the great and good work in which we are engaged."—Christian Rev. J. R. Burgett.—Th &Mansfield, 0., Herald says that Rev. J. R. Burgett, formerly settled in that city, left about a year since to take charge of a church in Mobile. He kept a strict watch over his tongue, but finally inadvertently said that he would have voted for Mr. Lincoln had he been at the North. Such lan guage could not be tolerated, and he was compelled to start North without delay. He is now in Ohio. We find Mr. Burgett's name in the 0. S. minutes as pastor elect of the Government Street Church of 394 members. The New York Observer Ineendiary!—The postmaster at Camden, Wilcox, Ala., under date of December 14, has notified the publishers of the New York Observer, that he will no 'longer deliver that paper from his office, as he regards it as "incendiary in its teachings." The Convention of O. EL 'Spode at Pittsburg hist month was quite successful and encouraging. Probably about 300 members in. all eniolled them selves as such. Rev. A. M. Bryan, D. D.—Many of our readers, says the Pittsburg Banner, will regret to intim the death of this excellent brother, pastor of the Cumber land Presbyterian Church, on Sixth Street, in this city. Last Sabbath week he preached in the church of Bethany, some eight miles from Washington, Pa., where he had been conducting religious services for several days. At the close of the sermon he gave out a hymn, and just as the singing was about to com mence, he fell down in the pulpit, to the great con sternation of the assembly. Ho lingered until Tues day, when he expired. His death was caused by the rupture of some of the vessels of the brain. METHODIST. Orville Gardner.—We have received a circular containing an appeal to the public in behalf of the efforts put forth by Orville Gardner superintendent of the Inebriates' Institute, 26 Nee/Bowery, Fourth Ward, signed by several distinguished civilians and ministers. The appeal sets forth that more than fif teen hundred persons have signed the temperance pledge, and a large number have obtained employ ment through the assistance of Mr. Gardner, and fif teen or sixteen of those who were brought into the institution in a state of intoxication are known to have been hopefully converted, and one of these is now filling the pulpit in one of the churches in this city.—Christian Advocate. CONGREGATIONALIST. At the Installation of Rev. L. Die!Lerman over the Union Church .of Weymouth and Braintree, Mass., January 17th, the Council, after a protracted discussion, declared that the principle of - the "sis months' notice," (which allows either party to end the connection by such a notice, without any action of Council,) is not "wise or salutary." REFORMED DUTCH. Church Case in Philadelphia.—From the con cluding portion of Judge Allison's opinion, debarring Rev. G. W. Smiley from the pastorate of this church, we extract the following: "For these reasons I reject the views entertained by the defendants upon the subject, and although in the affidavit of the Rev. Geo. W. Smiley, he says he is a clergyman of the "Reformed" Church, and, was duly elected a Deacon, and afterwards an "Elder" by "Presbyterial" ordination, yet this, if intended by Mr. Smiley to meet the requirements, of the charter, fails and in this respect he is wanting in an essantial requisitelbrttre - iSletaale ottins church. ' "Mr. Smiley, in his affidavit, a:lso says that he was rejected by the Classis, solely upon the ground of holding the doctrine of an unlimited atonement; and this stands as an impassable barrier, from which there is no escape, against his being installed in the office of pastor of the First Reformed Dutch Church, or of his continuing to supply the pulpit of said Church upon any terms, or in any capacity. Neither Doctor Smiley, or any other person, who does not receive and preach the doctrine of the canon of the Reformed Dutch Church upon the subject of Divine predestina tion, which involves the doctrines of election and re probation, and the doctrine of the decrees, and, in short, the entire system of Calvinistic theology as re ceived and taught by that Church, can have no right to its pulpit, and ought to be excluded therefrom.' Eva of Me 4rteL Convicted of Murder in the First Degree.— The trial of Armstrong for the murder of Crawford, which has been exciting a great deal of interest in the city, teripinated, on Wednesday last, by the jury rendering a verdict of guilty as above. We are in formed that our State Governors are in the habit, of late, of neglecting their painful, but imperative duty, as magistrates bearing the sword not in vain, of signing the death-warrants of men convicted of.capi tal offences. This act being necessary before seri, tence can be carried into effect, it follows that the criminal remains on the hands of the county,.and cannot be subjected to the usual prison discipline; &fact, he often fares better, enjoys more privileges, and is every way better off than an inmate of the same prison, convicted of petty larceny. This is a great outrage, and should be remedied. Philadelphia High School and the Coast Sur vey.—The Press says of the Coast Survey:—This fine work has been greatly assailed in Congress, and at every session much difficulty has been experienced in securing the necessary appropriations to carry it on. The engravings and charts are, executed more accurately and beautifully than those of any other country, the most skilful artists in the world being employed upon them. Among these lam glad to no tice a number of the graduates of the Philadelphia High School, who are always preferred by Professor Bache, a ,native Philadelphian, who has a standing application at the school for the best talent furnished by that great people's college. The investigations of this important branch of the public, service have been most thorough on the Southern coast, not. only for the putpose of ascertaining .the obstruetions in the various harbors and bays, but also the character of the country for five miles inland, so as to enable the Government 'to carry on its operations, and to pro; tent all our citizens engaged in the commerce of the seas. It is no wonder that all the gentlemen con nected with the coast survey are ardent and enthusi astic friends of the Union. The Mayor's Message.--Mayor Henry sent in his message to the Councils, January 31. The total funded debt of the city is $20,962,408, as near as can be'ascertained. During the past year the sum of $064,000 has been added to this debt. The deficit in the finances of the city is $360,000. The revenue provided by the last tax rate was not sufficient for the expenses of the city. The Mayor objects to the exemption from taxation of church property and be nevolent institutions as unjust and unequal in its ope ration, and at variance with the theory of governin which exacts no tax for the maintenance of religious belief. The defeats in the systems of valuation, and assessment and collection of taxes haveliot yet been remedied by legislation. From the financial cOndi don of the city the Mayor turns to the various de partments of the municipal government., and shows their operations add cost. He renews his suggestion that the city purchase the fire apparatus, and employ the police to put out fires, as a much less expensive operation than the present, and condemns any further increase of the number of steam engines. He believes that Girard College ought to extend its bounty to a larger number of orphans. The suggestions of the Mayor are generally ouch as the public will approve. He closes as follows:-- The troubles which have come upon this nation in the full tide of its prosperity may yet prove merciful dispensations of an all-wise Ruler, to teach its peo ple, throughout the length and breadth of its borders, the true value of those free institutions with which they have been especially favored, and to knit, more clusely,'a Union over which the frenzied hands of fa naticism or treason may not prevail. The Monthly Statement fof tho United, States Mint merits more than the usual attention, as the coinage is the largest ever made at the mint in• a single month. It amounts to 1,583,106 p . ieces, of the value of $8,14421 69. The gold coinage 'is 402,506 pieces, valued at $8,032,326 69. CITY auttriratt Vrtoirttriatt atd tittoet grangtliot. STATE OF THE COUNTRY. KEY WEST AND TORTUGAS.—The United States steamer Crusader arrived - at Havana from Key West January 25th, and reports the arrival out from Bos ton of the steamer Joseph Whitney, with U. S. troops and stores. The Crusader conveyed the J. W., with a schooner in tow, loaded with guns, to the fort at Tortugas, and when she left there, Captain Meigs, of the Engineers, lid, with great perseverance and industry, suc ceeded in getting the fort in good condition for de fence. The United States steamer Mohawk, Capt. Craven, was also at Tortugas, assisting the military officers. Captain Brannan, of the artillery, had garrisoned the Fort at Key West, and it. is reported as secure against any attack. Both of these officers are said to have displayed great zeal and discretion, owing to which the government property at Tortugas and Key West is reported as being perfectly secure. THE STEAMER JAmEs ADGER. —Among the passen gers are the female members of the families of some of the soldiers and officers in Fort Sumter. This looks as if an attack was apprehended. PUT NOT YOUR TRUST IN MArr.—Asa specimen of the President's wavering policy in this critical and perilous time, take the following, clipped from the telegraphic dispatches of Wednesday of last week: Mr. Buchanan, yesterday, acceded to the request of General Scott for the employment of two more companies of flying artillery for the protection of the district, but, fifteen minutes later, withdrew his ap proval. • It is stated as certain that the . President has given orders to the Brooklyn not to enter Pensacola har bor, and that these orders have been sent to Major Chase, commanding the Pensacola Disunionists, to be transmitted to the officer in command of the steamer. The purpose of this remarkable act is to prevent the theddi of blood. 'aria M ARINE 110APITAL AT NEW ORLiANS.---thirittg to the urgent remonstrance .of Secrctary Dix the af fair in relation to the Marine H lesns nits tintirr ttststotz y arranged: ." Noun' Jan. 30th--. The House this afternoon concurred in the Senate's amendments to the Convention bill, and it was finally passed. The bill orders that the question of Convention or no Convention be put to the people, who are to elect delegates at the same time. It also restricts the ope ration of Federal laws. The election is to be held Feb. 28. TAMPERING WITH LETTERS.—A letter was received by the Postmaster-General from a Market St. merchant stating that five of his recent letters from Mobile had been opened. This complaint will be immediately investigated. It is high time the department should de cide whether the servjce shall continue in States where the correspondence is thus violated. THE PRESIDENT AND KANSAS.—The President did not hesitate a moment to sign the bill admitting Kan sas, as has been intimated. On the contrary, it was promptly signed, so soon as it could be unrolled and placed before him. To-morrow, an additional star will appear on the flags over the eapital,—thus making thirty-four in all. CONSTITUTION NEWSPAPER:The Constitution news paper was suspended recently. The Secessionists having left for the South, no funds were forthcoming to sustain it. Browne, the editor, talks of starting a new journal at Memphis, to advocate Secession. He has much to learn. WELL Dm, TENNESSEE!—Washington, Jan. 30th. —A private despatch from Tennessee states that the Commissioners' appointed by the. Legislature have been instructed to meet the Border State Commis sioners at Washington, instead of those of the South ern States at Montgomery, Ala. This is regarded as a union triumph, as ten of the twelve are known certainly to be in favor of the Union. SECESSION PRINCIPLE CARRIED OUT.-A Georgia paper states that-the town of Gordon, situated on the Central Railroad, at the junction of the road to Mil ledgeville, has, by an ordinance duly drawn up, signed and adopted by a meeting of the citizens of the place, formally seceded froth Wilkinson county, State of Georgia. The narrator proposes to call it the independent City of. Gordon. The people of Gordon can probably give as good reasons for se cession, and the act can as 'well be justified on prin ciple, as can be the'secession of the Gulf States. NORTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE.--Raleigh, N. C., January 31st.— The Legislature to-day re-elected lion. Thomas L. Clingman Senator to the United States Congress. THE REVIVAL OF THE SLAVE TRADE.-113 the Loui siana State Convention, Jan. 31, a resolution.instruct ing the Delegates p ,to the Montgomery • Convention, which is to oonattuot the new Southern Confede racy," to resist any attempt to re-open the slay: trade, eight. This is a significant indication of the strength of the sentiment in favor of a revival of the infamous traffic, which is justly abhorred by the whole civilized world; and the subsequent passage, after an exciting debate of an explanatory resolution, threw but a flimsy disguise over the real purposes and objects of the Louisiana Secessionists. CAPT. MONTGOMERY C. ,MEIGS.—Man proposes and Ged disposes. When the Secretary of War, John B. Floyd, and Captain Meigs had their differences, the President taking the side of- Mr. Floyd, Capt. Meigs was ordered to Florida to take command of Fort Jef ferson, on the Tortugas, and it was considered by himself and his friends a sort of banishment. Within the last month, however, the President and the Sec retary have separated, the latter having taken ground against the Union, and the military officer proves to be one of the strong arms of the country. He is handsomely entrenched, with an abundance of pro visions, ammunition, and men, in one of the most important fortresses of the Government, and being a native Pennsylvanian, will no doubt do credit to him self, his State, and his country.--T he Philadelphia Press. MOVEMENTS OF SECESSION.—Every effort is being made by the Secessionists to, operate on Virginia, and a despatch was forwarded to Charleston from Wash ington and re-telegraphed to Richmond, that troops bad been ordered to Fort Sumter. This is only one of many specimens of invention with a purpose in view that must be conjectured. THE DEFENCE OF THE CAPlTAL.—Washington, Feb. I.—Two qpmpanies of artillery arrived to-day from Fort Hamilton. There are now five companies of that arm of the service, which, together with the infantry and ma rines, make about six hundred Federal -troops in Washington and its vicinity. Orders have just been issued for the enrolment of all citizens subject to military duty in the District of Columbia. Bosron, Feb. I.—The Senate, to-day, refused to take up the resolutions appointing Commissioners to the Conference of States at Washington, by a vote of sixty yeas to twelve nays. SEIZURE OF THE MINT AND CUSTOM House AT NEW ORLEANS.—Nerr Orleans, February lat.—The United States Mint and Custom House were quietly taken possession of yesterday by the State authorities. The officers continued in their positions, having taken the oath prescribed by the Ordinance of Secession to-day. The balance in the Mint at New Orleans, was $389,238; and in the hands of the Sub-Treasurer there, $121,238. Goon NEWS FROM Atannte.--Liteliable advices from Alabama bring the assurance that the Secessionists have been forced to yield to the overwhelming Union sentiment in the northern part of the State, and re consider their hasty action so far as to provide for submitting the ordinance of secession to the people. THE Tare'. OF JectcaLow.--Trenton, N: J., Febru ary 2d:—The jury in the Jackalow case came in to dny, at noon, and rendered a verdict of robbery, as charged in the first count of the indictment. MEXICO.—The steamship Tennessee, which, arrived at New Orleans from .Vera Cruz, brings dates from that port to the 23d, and from the capital to the 19th ult. Jaurez had made his entry into the capital amid great rejoicings, and there were but two - or three small armed bands of the beaten faction in the field which might be easily dispersed. CONGRESS. To ESDA Y, JAN. 29.--SsiverE.—Several amendments to the Pacific R. R. bill were adopted. Momma.—The daily Overland Mail proposition passed. It limits the cost to $BOO.OOO. The mail is to start from the western frontier of Missouri, and go through to Placerville in twenty days for letters and papers, and thirty-five days for magazines and documents, but which last may be sent by steamer at the contractor's expense. Bids are to be received till April, the contract to commence on July Ist, or as soon thereafter as possible. Denver and Salt Lake are to be supplied semi-weekly by the contractor. The postage on letters is to be ten cents, and on pa pers one cent. The bill was passed by a vote of 101 against 64. WEDNESDAY, 30.—SENATE.—The Pacific Railroad bill vyas finally passed. .The bill to provide a tem porary government for the territory ofJefferson, was taken up. The name was changed to Idaho. llousc—Representative Cobb, of Alabama, stated that be had received a certified copy of the secession of Alabama, and, therefore, he tendered his resigna tion to the House. • He reviewed the history off - the country, and declared his regret at leaving Congress. During the session a mess+ was received from the President, announcing that he had signed the Kan sae bill. THuaswor, .31.—SENATE.—Mr. Seward presented the memorial of thirty-eight thousand citizens of New York City, sAing in substance for the passage of the Border State resolutions. Mr. Seward accompanied the presentation with a speech, very hopeful and rn conciliatory, but soewhat'indeffnite, in tone. He said, in regard to the remaining unorganized terri tory: "Now, under what is -ItOoPted by the Admistra tion as a judicial decree, upheld by it, and put in practical operation by it, 'eOry inch of this territory is slave territory. I speak of that decision, not as I accept it, but as it is.accepted and enforced by the existing Administratioti. '•Every foot of it is slave territory, as much so ail' SOnth'ettrolina. Over a con siderable portion of it a slarkeede has been made by a Government created by the, Congress of the United States, and is enforced; l :, that, according to the claims of those who insis upon their right in the territory of the United Sta 4s, for slavery, the whole la of this one million sixty-11110 thousand miles is slave territory. How-many Blade ' are there in it? How many have been brought in o it during these twelve As years, in which it has notiordy been relinquished to slavery, but in which the court and Legislature, and the Administration, have maintained, protected, de fended, and guarantied slavery there? Twenty-four African slaves: one slave for every forty-four thou sand square miles." i Here be argued the comparative " practical nsigni - ficance of the question of slavery in the territories. He also said: r i -, "A great many partisa interests are to be sup pressed, such as the partis t an 'interests expressed by the Charleston platform, 010 Baltimore platform, and the Chicago platform. If _the Union is in danger, and is to be saved, theSe `iiiterests, and these plat forms, and everybody standing on them- or connected with them, are to pass awl* before the Union can be saved." t . Senator Hunter seemed to become incensed in &pro portion as Senator Seward came more conciliatory! and insisted on perverting he speech into a declara tion of war, doubtless in' er to aid his traitorous plans in Virginia. Mr- , uglas ,entered the, lists against Mr: Mason., . . .. , Rii tir Le - islitti*A conciliatory speech )ar :. ms son of John Quincy _ Tritiade by Adams. FRIDAY, FEB. 1., SEN'arz.—Sen — athan, lifOrnia,, made a speechution the President's mes sage, condemning secession . ; but depreb - ating coercion, as he called it. The Tariff bill was repo#ed with amendments and made the special order r Wednesday next. The Diplomatic Appropriation ill was passed. The cre dentials of Edgar - A.'Cow of Pennsylvania, were presented. The Exeetitiv and Judicial Appropria tion bill was then taken u and passed, after which the Senate went lute Exeputive session and subse quently adjourned. , Rouse.—Mr. Kellozg, of Illinois, offered a substi tute for the Committee of Thirty-three's proposition, which was ordered to be printed. It adopts the line of 36°, 30 , , and prohibits' congressional and territo rial legislation on slavery below that line, in territory now in possession of the government. Mr. Hamilton, of Texas', made a very patriotic speech, in the conclusion de which he said he had been called on here and at home to come to the as sistance of the destroyers, and he had been threatened and entreated to come to this course, but no threats and dangers should tear him away from the Union until he had seized the horns of the altar and im plored heaven to allay the storm and again uproar the same pillars which sustain the weight and add theirwted beauty to„ the,. structure. [Great ap plause,Mr. btokes, of Tennessee t i . e?ebboed the noble sen- timents of Senator JohnsonrMr. Etheridge and other patriots from, the same State3.< He said he did not think his-State would sever : Speaking of disunion, he said: "The object was to re-open the African slave trade, conquer Mexico, and annex Cuba. Disunion was the scheme of a few excited maOmen and politicians, am bitious men seeking for povier. He admitted that he was a submissionist, and would rather be called this than a rebel and a traitor, He was for the Union, the Constitution; and the enforcement of the laws. [Applause.] He was not for coercing .a State, but would not submit to South Carolina coercing the other States. Firmness and'moderation ought to be exercised. He believed the difficulties can and would be adjusted to the satisfaction of the Border States, but not to that of South Carolina and other seceded States." SENATE.—Saturday, February 2d.—No business of importance was brought to a conclusi on. ROUSE.—A bill was passed, after some discussion, authorizitig the President, at any time before the first of July, to borrow on the credit of the United Statei, not exceeding $25,000,000,, certificates to be issued for not less than $l,OOO, with coupons payable semi annually, with interest. &bum—Monday, February 4th.,_The Idaho bill was...taken. up,. ant}. the...:.eridment of Mr:-ch. • . tneauouttaury toleTwys -- Tid:4lo. I n mo tion of Mr. Wilson, of •Massachusetts, the name was changed from Idaho to ColorOto, after which the bill passed. The Loan bill was reportk from the Fi nance Committee, and'made the special order for to day. HousE.—Mr. M'Clelland,' of 111., asked leave to in troduce a resolution of inquiry in regard to the re cent seizure of the United States property at New Orleans. Mr. Craige, of North Carolina, objected. -GENERAL The Census of Missouri shows that State to have 1,407,536 whites, 113,188 slaves, and 3,902 free ne groes, or in the aggregate 1,524,626. This is much larger than Missouri has jet been announced as having, and it places the State next in rank to. Illi nois in point of population, the total being larger than either Indiana or Virginia. Rail Roads in remisylvania.—Our good old State has now more miles of railway in operation than any State in the Union, except Ohio. The lat ter has 3057, while we have 2943, according to an account published in the U. S. Economist, ,a New York paper. The next States in rank to us in this respect, are Illinois, with 2,924 miles in operation, New York, 2808, and Indian ;2,958. But as regards the total length of lines, of which these miles form parts, our State is far ahead of all, except Ohio. We rank thus: Ohio, 4133 milegjennsylvania, 3972; Il linois, 3551; New York, 3455; Texas, 2667; Indi ana, 2522. While, therefore, Illinois is now very near us in the matter of miles in operation, she will ultimately be distanced when all our roads shall have been compleied. Considering the enormous difficulties under which we have labored in building railroads over our moun tainous soil; the progress we have made is truly sur prising. In the item of cost, of construction and equipment we head the list. thus:--Pennsylvania, $151,529,629; New York, $145,259,702; Ohio, $ll7, 353,116; 111in0i5,.5106,975,581. No other State comes within gunshot of these figures.—U. S. Gaulle. FOREIGN Sumnpry. The following is a summary of the European news to the ISth, received by;the arrival of the Bohemian. It is expected that an imperial decree will soon ap pear that if Piedmont makes war on Austria she need expect no assistance from France, Great mili tary preparations are in orogress. The Spanish go vernment has issued instructions to the commander of the fleet to keep strict neutrality at Gaeta. The bembardment of Gaeta was to . have been resumed on Monday, the 21st Jan.

Just as the hour arrived for ,the interment of his daughter, the father breathed his last. The scene was awfully impressive, Both were valuable members of the "Old Pine Street' Church." Capt. &mon Toby united with the congregation under the pastorship of Rev. Archibald Alexander, more than half a century since, and has always been regarded as one of its most useful members. For purity of life, amiability of tem per, and fulness of charity, he was a model man. Says the Evening Bulletin:— Capt. T. was born in England; but early in life he fixed his home in Philadelphia. For more than a quar ter of a century he lived upon the spot where he finally died. The deceased was bred to the sea; he was en gaged in the Havana trade about the year 1806, and after the war of 1812, he became connected with the house of Chandler Price and Benjamin Morgan as cammander in their line of packets between this city and New Orleans; being captain, of the old ship Ohio and the new one of the same name, built after the other was wrecked. About I 1823, he abandoned the sea, and was elected President of the Insurance Company of the State of Pennsylvania, which of f ice he held until a few years ago. He was, at the time of his death, President of the Shipmasters' Society. Captain-Toby was well known in commercial and ship- I Plug circles, and he was universally esteemed as a gen tleman of unblemished integrity and probity. NOTICES.

AMERICAN SLAVERY JUSTIFIED American Slavery Distinguished from the Slavery of English Theorists, and Instilled by the Lam of Nature. BY. REV. SAMUEL SEABUR/, D. D., Author of "Discourses on the. Supremacy and Obliga tion of Conscience," etc. 1- vol., 12mo. Cloth extra Pricp 1 dollar. The. country has been flooded with anti-slavery argu ments ; antislavery societies have persevered in syste matic, vigorous, and ingenious efforts to inculcate their peculiar views by means of public harangues, newspa pers, novels, sermons, tracts, pictures. and 'other means of influencing the public. Meanwhile but very little has been done to present the other side of the subject. The American people believe in full and free discussion, and can hardly wish to decide any quistion after bearing only one side, and even those who have formed opinions will be willing to consider argumt.nts, even though they tend to different conclusions, which come from an emi nent source, and which are at once able, forcible, and kind. The present work offers such arguments from such a source. Published by MASON BROTHERS, Feb. 7-3 t. 5 and. 7 Nercer Street. New York. Wbf. M.
