VERa CRuz, Jauuary, .1858 The steamer fur Vera Cruz leaves New Orleans on the Ist and the 15th of each month, and ro turns from the former .port to the United States ; abed the 7th tind the 21st. The time occupied in the passage is from 3 to 3i clays, and the fare "for eabin passage is $5O. The steamer now on the line is the "Tennessee." She has the reputa tion of being a good sea boat aid well supplied with the luxuries of the table; on this latter sub ject, however, am not -e, competedtviteess, es at - sen"(ort short passages) 'the amotivit of food con sumed by me is not much, and the taste anything but agreeable. I never omit, however, the usual sacrifices paid by most landsmen to Neptune.— Though I was unable to appreciate the good fare of the gallant steamer, I was fully sensible of the -gentlemanly - and' obliging conduct of those in charge of her. Those that make the passage of 'the gulf iu.her will probably not soon fotget the atteuttve and agreeable purser, Mr. Da Costa.— The Captain seemed to be of the right stamp; he did not spend his time dowu in the cribin'p laying, games with the passengers (as is too . Often the case,) but appeared to look carefully after the .safety of his ship. •Some.fearfal 'accidents 'hare •ticeurred-from cams (wbosedrat duty it . is to at tend to the working of the vessel,) being too con stant in their attendance in the cabin. The pas eenger businese between New Orleans and Vera Craz is not heavy; they seldom have such a large party on board as ours; this accounts for the high rate - of charge, S5O for n-three duys' postage.— Land is generally visible some three or four hours before reaching Vera Cruz, provided the weather be-clear. The rabuntaine in the neighborhood of Perateare generally the first seen ; they are rug ged, broken, volcanic formations, highly pictur esque, - rising as they seem to du out of the sea; while high above them towers the huge round top ped "Care de Perot.," (collie of Peente,) so called .from the resemblance the top of the mountain bears 'to a Shrouded corpse. The summit of this last is about 134,00 feet above the level of the sea. As We progressed .a still grander and more impos ing' objeot appeared, the voic:me of Orizaba!— Titls . is the mountain of which Bayard Taylor says "Orizaba.divells alone in my memory as the ogy.perfect type of a mountain to be found on 'the - earth ! " As it was probably 100 miles off *en we first sighted it, it was impossible to form airne estimate of its real magnitude, but the snow that covered its apex slimed that it stretched far upwards into the regions of everlasting frost. Its height is stated at near 17500 foot. At about 3 o'clock In the afternoon of January the 4th, we came to anchor oppoSite the town of Vera Cruz, just as the English mail steamer was Aleut sailing for the West Indies. There is no harbor here, only an open road-stead, and ono by no means safe. Its entrance and exit are from -the north, on all other sides it is slant in, by either coral reefs or the shore. The usual anchorage is just between the Fort or castle of San Juan and the mole or little pier built out from the city wall. The most dangerous winds that blow here are from the north, and to -these this roadstead is quite exposed. When vessels, are naught bete by a "(norther" their only security is in the strength .of their cables and anchors; and that these are -often 'unequal to the-emergency, several shattered wrecks on the southern side Vali) , attest. Not very long ago a screw -steamer belonging to the Mexican Navy was forced ashore in spite of all her crew could do, and great loss of life was the tonsequence. Wnen it is found that a vessel will ot ride out the gale without dragging her an ‘eborsi.all that remains, is to try and run her on the sandy beach and avoid the fatal coral reefs; this is generally accomplished, though as in the MAO of tae above mentioned steamer, they some times fail. If Mexico were in the -hands of an energetic people a breokwator could be so con structed as to render this anchorage perfectly safe; wit is, it probably will never be done. It was once proposed leo the story goes,) to Santa Anna ,to build this . breakwater, "What" replied that patriot; "put all that money into the sea! much better to put it into my pocket," and so the mat ter rests. The town' of Vera Cruz tanking some 10 to 12000 inhabitants. Formerly there were many :more, but it seems to be retrograding like every *Wag else in this country. A greeter contrast to a bustling go-ahead American city than it pre sents cannot well be imagined. In the first place it is Walled and fortified, (not that it could stand maw' slays before a well appointed besieging ar xny,) at every corner.one sees soldiers. There are •few if any wooden honks (inside the vrallsj dwellings being generally one or two story bout. es, wbems-walls are built of a considerable thick- I/015 (they are ahead of us in that at any rate,) the material used being coral and brick, laid with out any regularity, and held together by cement .of- a most excellent quality. These houses aro square buildings containing a kind of open court. inithe center in which aro generally conic shrubs .orliairt trees. As the families sit mostly in elois lore ar oorridors surrounding these courts, and there are few windows looking out towards the streets, the appearance of the private houses 'is rather gloomy and prison like'; and this resem blance is heightened by the heavy bars of wood oriren which protect all the street windows. In thwevenings however the fair inhabitants of these domicile may be seen seated behind these grated windows chatting together, or excbangien sale titfons with passing friends, and not unfrequent lj- puffing clouds of smoke from their pretty tiodtbs. Most certainly nothing reminded ins morn forolhly that I was out of the "States" than '-to see a pretti black-eyed "senora" loaning back chair et a window and smoking a cigarette -with the utm /rat nolichalince. Just fancy a Chest . •eint street-belle so enjoying herself! And another difference is, that, so far from new buildings , going up every-here and there on "corner lots," -they don't , even keep in repair those already up; itzera. are Teat cumbers cif ruined houses to be seen on 'all sides, and they seem 'to have been so forniany years. Tho oldest church in the coon try-built- in 1531, has Just tumbled down ; the 'town authorities bad for some time considered it Itil'agicbut before they could makeup their minds - whitheourse to pursuo, the building took its own course, which was straight down to the ground. The various churches and most other buildings were ones washed over with lively colors, gener ally pink, but the destructive action of the sea air has mottled them over with a dull uniform tint of gray. -7 From the same cause iron is destroyed very rapidly. The average size of the men is lower than in this States, some of the soldiers almost looked like bla=st se little distance, they never could be e. `match far those of the stalwart Anglo Saxon-race. ene thing however struck me favorably with re g people, nt to 'these viz: their extreme polite- ries& The contrast between the porters here, arid those of a similar class in New York and other of your large cities was great indeed. Baltimore think carries* the palm for savage ill-man , nered'haek drivers from all the other„citieo of the Erhard. This is quite a clean town; and for this etOillenee our beet thanks are due (in a great lawn' re) to a very =worthy and industrious class; I think the most hard working of say to be met with, in_ the country and . one wliose :merits have been overlooked heretofore by "own" and-"ape chit correspondents" as well as regular travelers, and book makers; so for want of an abler advo cate, it has fallen to my lot to introduce to the notice of your readers that numerous fraternity, the buzzards of Vera Cruz. If it were not for the efforts of these self•constituted scavengers I fear the yellow fever would make still greater havoc than it does. While on this subject it may he mentioned that this place is never free from this scourge. In the winter of course it is not so had as in the hot season, but not a week passes that sonic do not fall victims to it. Its ravages are confined to foreigners or those from the interior, the natives of the place hover take it, and could the influx of strangers be prevented it would soon die out. I was told by a gentleman long resident here that it was the "worst spot on the globe for the 'Vonlito.' " Two died of it in the hotel just, about the time I was there. They say itis much better to tali° the disease soon after arrival, for if adong , time elapses first the chances are that the patient dies. ED. M. R. Letter from Washington. WASRINGION FED. 2i ; . 1858 The past week so far as Congressional matters are concerned, has,notresulted in anything bene ficial to the country. In, the Senate the political history of Tennessee has been'thei'eiighly over hauled, in an animated discussion 6etWeen Messrs.

The President bas however performed his duty, and should the traitorous saints, cut off, or defeat our little army, the re sponsibility rests not with him. The political Leviathan—lfoomns—is made the special order of the day far Meuday--and as at least twenty honorable Senators are desirous of being heard,_ upon the trio of reports from the 'Committee on territories, we may safely predict, that the middle, of March will be upon us, crc a &nal rote will be taken in that body, on its ad mission as a State. The Douse on yesterday passed two appropria tion bills viz., an set tasking approprialon for the Indian Department for the year ending June 30, 1853 ; also 'an act to,e table the President of the U. S. to carry out the treaty stipulations., en tered into between this government : and the King of Denmark, fur the discoutinuanee 'Of the Sound dues. The debate upon the resolution to expel from the House, one of "Sir R. Walpole's men"--Orsa- Inns B. Matteson of N. York, attracted quite a large crowd to the galleries of the New Hall. The resolution was referred to a select commit tee. While we are uo Dpologists 'for .Mr. Matte eon, and sincerely believe that he justly merits 1110 rebuke called for in the resolution ; we would most respectfully suggest to those members, whose virtuous indignation has been aroused, to open their eyes to the fact—that there is at this time, a delegate occupying a seat on that floor, repre senting a constituency, which is engaged in open rebellion,cgainst the government. Why not put them is the same boat; and expel them both ? That "Jacksonian" document, the"Presiclent's Kansas Message," is reeciving . tbe'en"dorsement - of the Democracy in all iitiartori of 'the Country, and that the position assumed by the ".Noble OJAI Chieftain, of the Key-Steno State," will be confirmed by both brandies of the national legis lature, by the admission of Kansas under the oLecompton Constitution," is as certain 11.5 x that the "Orb of day rises in the East." Tho editor of the Press, Col. Forney, must feel highly edified, at the expression of the Democra. cy of his State through their county conventions and particularly of his native city; the capital of the "Old Guard," and we can almost hear him ex cle.lin—"Hold-me, Douglas, or I sink." Forney's defiant, malignant and unscrupulous opposition to the administration, and his alliance ith the "union sliding" agitators and 1. unties have placed him alms t beyon cl the pale of redetep ?Jon, and when hit present politieal "Sun goes down" (as it surely will) in. darknesf, nothing short of ten years , probation, as high'priva4 in the ranks, should be meted out to him, before he again be entitled to the confidence of . the democ racy of the Old Key-Stone State. It is confidently asserted that, next week, the Select liansas committee. of the house, will :Jai,- mit It majority report, when an opportunity will bcolicred to those of our Pennsylvania Democratic members, who hare put themselves on the record as opposed to the administration, "To flee the wrath to caroe"-•-• particularly those representing, the Afth s •sixth, eeleenth, and eleventh, congressional districts. Notwithstanding the dire effects of the mone tary crisis, through which we hare just passed, in Washington a gayer winter than the present has not been witnessed by the "oldest inhabitant."— Iteceptions,—Dalls and "Soirees" are the order of day and night, and the magnificent display of dress exhibited on each and all of these occasions, is in striking contrast with that of the "Days of cold Lang Syne— when as "the chronicles of the past," tell us Mr. Jefferson, most graciously roeeivod his company, clad in a well-made suit of home-span cloth. The weo.ther is very mild, and stern winter is rapidly.disop,...earicg, to give way to more genial Spring. • B. H. 0. WasilviGroN, March tt,ISSS Both Houses of Congress seem to have adopted a "masterly inactivity" - policy, 'or at least•have determined that allmattet s, both of a public and private character, shall slumber either on the pri vate calender, or in that comparative "tomb of the Capulets" the hands of non-reperting com mittees, until the great "bone of contention" Kan sas, is in some 'way settled. In the Senate, the different reports from the committee on territories, are being thorutolly canvassed, by the loadings spirits of that beery. Mr. Douglas, the champion.of the A n ti- Lecomp ton, Anti-administration factionists in the Senate has at last met more than his equal in tho cut and thrust debate attendant upon this question. Not satisfied with the argumentative mention. he re ceived at, the hands of our distinguished Senator Mr. Bigler, his gauntlet was thrown down to Mr. Green of Missouri, who reported the majority re port from the territory committee, and despite his best attempts of 'his style of cutting oratory, he was met at every point, and completely vanquish. cc!. I think by this time the fate of fallen politi cians, with whose history,tio must be conversant, has produced for his peculiar gratifieatien, a mir ror; iu which his own sad doom has boon too truly reflected. • Poor Forney ; the political world is anxious to see and hear which way he now will turn since the democracy of his own State have nailed his bogus issue to the counter. Ho boldly asserted that forty conventions could not muzzle him; but with all his tact, low, cunning, over-rated sagaci ty and shallow foresight, he. little anticipated such a "Waterloo" defeat. He must now choose one of two alternatives, either recant, and nail the ticket to his ""maSt. head," or sever the-slender link which binds him to the Democracy, and throwing off his masque, fall int,o4lp .arms of Circely, Beecher, Banks Ia the House, Kansas will very soon be :node the special orde-, as the majority of the "Harris committee" have determined to report favorable to the admission of that territory under tht Pompton constitution."

St. john's Lutheran congregation, under the great exertions of their popular minister, the Rev. D. Steck, has experienced a remark/thin degree of -that joy which alone is essential to make mortals happy hero below, and insure life-eternal the world, to come—in heaven. The pastor of this.congre gation commenced delivering a course of sermons to the young. Last Sunday evening was the first of the series, and 'to judge; from this one, they will be highly interesting. The attendalec on this occasion was large, esiceeiallyt;k the part of the yonni. The Methodist citurbes, hafe also held SpeOfal meetings, Which have been largely attended, and hopes are entertained that great and lasting good may ..rettilt from these 4 ‘reii.-. Tals." .T llOtice In the pitp-me., that ell 'New York is roused to a sense of their religious necessities, and conversions by the thousand are taking place. It takes hold of all classes and con ditions,of men, and must certainly be significant of great regen oration ;arta reformation. , .The_ Tribune, on Mon. day. last contained a s.lx column article on the subject of "Religion," which strangely contrasts with its oddly cooked-up daily articles on"bleed-, ing Kansas,'! "abolitionism," Sc. I hope it may continue to publish such articles, and exclude all other misfihisif making stuff, and its large num ber of readers will vastly profit by it. All pa per?, secular and religious, should lend their aid more to the religious cultivat ion of the commu nity in which they are published, and in cense. quence a more appreciative and intelligent ,elass of people would spring up UM live together up on more social and intimate terms. Crime would be suppressed, and the Sanctuaries of the Lord would be,better attended.

This should not be so, and a care should be had that More substantial.mental food would be adminis tered to the public through the medium of the press. This reminds me of the powerful lecture delivered by the Rev. G. F. Krotel, on last eve ning—the third of the "ROWard-Evenings"—on the "Power of the Press." I see it announced in the papers, that two of our cotton factories are again to resume opera tions in a few days,.

The old saying is that when March seines in like lion, 'the going out will he like a lamb.— I hope it may be so. Entron:—When I penned my last, I. thought I had done with this subject. But "Sis" not yet satisfied; continues to indulge herself (in her propensity for writing) wonderfully enlighten ing the people of Lebanon arid'the world in gen eral, with her very original remarks on .tho pro. priety of Gossiping. It is somewhat ludicrous, though, to hear her rant about the good motives of that (in "Sis' estimation) much injured class of individuals—the Scandal-Mongers. From the pertinacity with which she maintains her asser tions as to -it being our duty to tell all we know about our neighbOts, one might bo led to doubt one's judgment on this subject; notwithstanding that Iva are inStractedfb,y .the wise to speak ill of no one. If we can say nothing good. then ivo shall say nothing, evil: But probably "Sis" has examined this "icxeri" subject thoroughly' nd has come to conclusions difrering-frotri' that embedy ing in the above Instruction, and; consequently is for ahead of the ago ; destined to goon unap preciated amidst sods "worn' ignorance" tliat still darkens the beclouded intellect of the present gen eration. If "Sit" 'would know what is thought of the Gossiper, "by the wisest of men,"let her refer to the Boost of Berms. Pray. XXVI chap.; which I always have considered good 'authority; and which alio answers her question, "41164 is Solomon and the wise men." "I consider it an imperative and high moral duty to - declare openly what men and women are—" She " first article' “Sis I” did you ever belong to the "Know Noth ings?" It seems there belonged to that order,. some years ago, some one who considered : that it was a "high moral duty to declare openly what men and women are," and, as a consequence, de clared openly to the Democrats what men were "Know Nothings ." In this your principles wore carried out, and the community thought it a very scurvy trick to "declare such things openly." By the way "Sis." what would you think of a person who would take-upon himself the obligations to Seeresy that aro administered in most of these Secret Societies, and then "deehtro openly what be had them learnt d. "Sis" has taken it into her head, that I "defend, the Slanderer." That's funny! "Sis," especially when I 'thought all along that I was condemning him. I hope "Sis" will excuse tne for not believ ing that I "defend the SlanderetY! for I really would not like to bare it thought that I would do so. I. asking "S is" to remove that libel from the schools, she wishes to know. what I term a, libel. Why "Six" I really do not know exactly. You say "a rotten apple spoils its companions." "I point your attention .to schools fur a proof of this," If you do not mean to libel oar schools by that "rotten" allusion you mean nothing. Infect the schools are referred to as a proof that "a.rot ton apple spoils its companions," but as I could see no connection between_ our schools and "a rot ten apple," I guessed (for I find it necessary to guess often to get at your meaning,) that you in tended to libel them iu some way or .other. In speaking in the same connection in another arti elo you say, "an illustration of "good boys'" could be seen at Prof. Beck's lecture." What have good boys to do with sehools provinz that "a rotten ap ple spoils its companions?" Why "Sis" you are simply ridiculous ! and would better leave the Schools alone. And doubtless you would have had no remarks to make about the schools had you become teacher a certain school in town,— "There is where the galled jade winces." Now "Sis" I wilt call you& attention to that "woful ignorance" again, of which you have ac cused me as displaying, and then I have done for the present. It used to be a practice in Jerusa lem for every one to sweep before his own door, and thus the city was always kept clean. I will not, at present; attempt to deny that I am igno rant, but wilt ask you since you have discovered iu zne such "woful ignorance," what you would have' thought had I written the sentence, "where fa Solomon and the wise men of the East." Sup pose you parse that for me "Sis," if you can't ask any schoolboy and.he will point you out an egre gious Gramatical blunder in it. I would also ask you to explain to use how I blindly sail "Like the lest rose of summer left blooming alone, &c." Your wits must just then have sailed off, and left you and the "Last rose of summer" blooming alone. But enough of this just now. If you in tend to discuss the question take your points and keep to them, for if you want to criticise you shall have a dish f the Critic criticised to your heait's content; your articles giving ample Opportunities for it.
