No hew fact beyond the spread and in crease of alarm or of irritation among the population had become known, but the ten dency of these was not only to depress the spirits, of all of the public who relied on peace, but also to.cnlmhce the difficulty and the danger of. the Government, should it be ultimately resolved that war-would not be resorted to. , From every seaport, and in deed from every internal town or city of France in> which a newspaper was published, there arrived in, Paris evidence of the' ear nestness of Government to prepare for the worst alternative; and of the ardent desire of the population for war. -In orderto-work up public feeling to the proper pilch of ex asperation, the Republicans had also-contri ved to produce in all the Theatres of France, even in the Academic Royale de Musique of Paris, calls for the Marseillaise hymn so general and so pressing that the Government, which at first attempted to stifle those cries, was obliged to order that (hey should be ac quiesced in, and accordingly we find that at the Grand Opera on Wednesday night, the Marseillaise hymn was played Tby the or chcstcr, and sung in chorus by the occupants of the pit., ..The excitement and angry feeling which the first announcement of the destruction of Beyrout caused appeared to be in no de gree moderated. ■ Even those papers which had heretofore expressed atordial desire for the maintainance of peace, represent that the attack made upon Beyrout, before Me hemet All’s propositions, suggested by the French Government, had received due con sideration, ns an outrage upon the honor of France. Such is the Tanguageiof a news paper whose reported connection with M. Thiers gives additional Weight and impor tance to its opinion. The Conslilutionncl observes, fiat a sentiment pervades the en tire population of Pan's, that the national honor has-been insulted; and (hat this'TeCi ing is. strongly entertained by the general stall of: the-National Guard, and even by men known, not for their, violent, but mod erate opinions.

Gale on Bake Huron and Providential Escape of -150'Persons.- By passengers who came in the Great Western last night, we learn that a heavy gale has been raging on Lake Huron for. several days, doing much damage to vessels and endangering the lives of many persons. Among the vessels mentioned as having suf fered, is the hew nnd elegant steamboat Mis souri, Cant. Wilkinq. This vessel .left our port for the upper lakes, on,the SOthinst. -with 150 tons of merchandize and'lso pas sengers, forty of whom were females. ‘On'Friday last the Missouri encountered the gale when she was some SO miles from, shore,'and from what has been gathered, her situatiun and those on board must have been deplorable.' Soon after the blow com menced, thc'brick, work and cDnnectirig pipe ot the boilers became loose,whiclrcnnipelled the-engineerto-quenclrthc fire in order that the disaster might be remedied. Before this was accomplished, however, the force of the waves carried awjy the rudder post, thus rendering the vessel entirely unmanageable. In this situation, she lay rolling at the mercy of the elements, all of thirty-six hours, and so imminent was Ihe danger that all ori board, save the captain and a few others, yielded to their fears, and in a circle of small compass assembled together in Ihe cabin; and prepared by prayer for the fate that threatened them. ' , Although qt every swell of (he waves the upper deck moved to and fro, and the hold was four feet deep with,water, Capt. Wil kin was firm in his belief to save the boat and those on board. All the goods upon, the deck were cast overboard, efbbracing some te.n tons of crockcty, hardware,'&c. In the liurrry was also thrown over a small part of'lbc baggagp belonging to the passen gers. This relieved the boat considerably, and by continued exertions, Capt. W." suc ceeded in getting’ the vessel under com mand again, and finally returningto Detroit in safety, to the infinite delight and thank fulness of all on board. ’ To the indomitable and persevering spirit of Capt. Wilkins, may be ascribed the preservation of those under his protection. His boat is a* new one, perfect in all her ar rangements, and belonging mainly to C. M. Reed, of Erie.' % - Since the above was in type we have the folio,ying •additional ’ particulars from the Detroit Daily Advertiser of Monday week., The Missouri met a tremendous gale in Suginaw Day on Friday night last—during, the early part of which the connections of the boilers gave way, and let off the whole of the steam.' The boat,"of course, became unmanageablc, and was. drifted more than 75 miles by. the-the hardest.blow cver-kuown upon the lake. The surges"were dverwheltiling— rack ing the boat at every sciim, and dashing im mense'quantities of water into .the hold at every-swell. . -The- passengers- manned the pumps and kept her above-water until—the storm abated. / The snioke pipes were blown away—the lower portion of the wheel house dashed in and other injury done. Ten tons of goods were thrown over-board to lighten the vessel, during the gale. VVfter the gale subsided" the injuries to the machinery were temporarily repaired, and the boat came in last evening. ’ Here follows a card of thanks to the cap tain and his officers, to whose excellent con- duct, under divipe Providence, they attri bute the preservation of their lives. In the reply of the captain he thanks the passen gers for the aid rendered to him during the storm, and says that the freight was not thrown over until all other resources seem ed of no avail; and that during the time, the boat drifted toward'the Canada shore about one hundred miles.

The oldest hoy was an idiot, a bout eight years of age, the second wasTflve years old, and dumb, and the youngest was an infant. It so .happened that the infant was lift one morning in ihargovof his broth ers, and the three had rambßoSome distance i from the chalet before (hey were missed— and, when (he mother went in search of the little wanderers, she found the two oldest, - but could-discnver .no traces of the "baby.— The idiot boy seemed to be in a'transport of joy, while the dumb child displayed every - symptom of alarm anil terror, in-. Vain did the terrified parent endeavor to 1 collect what had become of the lost infant. The antics of one and the fright of the other, explained' nothing. The dumb boy was almost bereft ol his senses, and when the idiot appeared to have acquired an unusual degree of mirth and expression, and danced about, laughed, and made us if he were imitat ing tlmaction of one who had caught up something of which he was fond arid hug ged it to his' heart. This, however, was of some slight comfort to the poor wqpian, for she imagincd-lhat some acquaintance had' taken-away the infant. But the day and night wore away and>no tidings,of the lost child. « - On.the morrow, when* e parents were, pursuing their search, an'ciigle flew lover their heads,-at the sight Of"which the.idiot renewed his antics, and the dumb boy .clung -to his fatiier'with sliricks-bf anguislt and af fright., ’4'he horrible', truth then;burst upon their minds;-that (he miserable infant had been carried off in the talons of a bird ;of prey; and,the half wilted elder brother, was happy at his riddance of an .’object of whom he was jealous. /; . On the morning rui which the accident jtapperiedi an Alpine yager," had been watclW ing, near an eaglets nest, .under theihope of shooting, the, bird upon her relurn.to ber best. The yager waiting iri all the anxious;perse verance of a true sportsman, beheld the'mpn: sterslowlytvingiri'gherwaytpwni'dsthe fconcealed. , Im aginc the; horron, when upon her near ap proach Jie.heardthc cries and distinguished the figure of an infant in her fatal grasp. In an-instant his. resolution was formed—to fire at Ihe bird at all hazards, the moment she should alight upon her nest, and rather kill the child than leave itto.be torn in pieces by the horrid deyourcr;—with a silent prayer and a steady aim, the mountaineer poised his rifle—the ball went directly through the head or heart of the eagle and in a moment after, this gallant hunter of the Alps, had the unutterable dclightof snatching .the child front the,nest, and bearing it away in triumph. It was dreadfully wounded in one of its arms and sides, but not mortally, and within tv-four hours after it was first missed, he had /the satisfaction, of restoring it to its mothcr’s arinsn- - - The JVew Species of Wheat. Baltijiobe, Oct. 3, 1840. To the. Editor of-the American Farmer. Sir:—l think it proper to take (lie earliest occasion to notice the new species of wheat, a drawing of which has just been pulished in the American Farmer, and copied into the American and Patriot, accompanied by a letter from Mr. Read. I do this for the double purpose of saving money and trouble to all concerned.' The new species of wheat is, without doubt the Egyptian wheat, Trii cum compositum —for a drawing & descrip tion of which, see Loudon’s Encyclopedia of Plants. The engraving in Loudon, ami that in the Farmer, present the same char acters precisely. 1 Besides,-I have often seen the Egyptian wheat, and,the head of the new species which has been exhibited {o ine is identical with (he Egyptian. This kind of wheat was introduced into Englaud in 1"99, and from that lime to the present has made frequent appearances in the United States. has been called successively the £gvp tian, Syrian, Many-spiked, Seven-headed, Reed, Wildp'oosc If'hcat, ij-c., <S-c._' .The name of “\V ildgoosc,” was given to it from the fact that a 1 lew grains of it was found some years ago in the crop of a qildgoose that was killed on the shores of Lakc Cham plain. Ihe name Reed wheat, was given to it because of its stout stem resembling small reed, or dine. It was,received by the Philadelphia Society lor -promoting agricul ture, in 1807", from Ucneral. Armstrong, then our minister at Paris. Judge Peters took charge of a part of it, and grew of it five or six years, it was at first very productive under his cultivation; a pint of seed sown in drills and hoed, produced one bushel and a pyck of grain. But after (he first-three or lour .years the Judge'says it did not thrive sufficient-to authorize extensive cultivation. _At that lime ir was "extcTfsively distributed by the above named society. ‘ Judge Buel „saidJ)cJiasLseenCextensivc fields, of it; In the domestic published Jo 1821, it is stated that the Egyptian'wheat docs not yield as 'mlich flour as any of the the othci kinds, and that the flour is scarce ly superior to that obtained from die 1 finest barley. .In March, Jff3B. it was selling in Albany, N. Y., at Jive dollars per bushcC It has'several" times been brought from Santa Fc, by travellers and traders.' It ap pears to be cultivated in that country, prob ably owing to its better adaption to the cli mate than any other kind. That the (Lagc Indians might have obtained it from Saida Fe, is no way improbable. How it found Us way from Egypt to Santa Fe 1 cannot pretend to guess, unless a wild goose' also carried it from the former to the latter coun try; which on reflection is scarcely more improbable than % fact stated above that one of these birds carried it to the shores of Lake Champlain. From all these facts it would appear that if (lie wheat in question nad been adapted to our climate, or was sus ceptible of acclimation, and in other respects a good variety, it would have gone into gen eral cultivation before this time, and I Take it for granted that an article: that hid been extensively distributed and so thoroughly experimented upon would have been retain ed ami universally cultivated, ifit had been found valuable. During the twenty years of thy agricultural experience it has been presentedlo my notice at least twenty times.
