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

than it does. While on this subject it may he

scourge. In the winter of course it is not so had

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

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

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

the Indian Department for the year ending June

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

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

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

committee" have determined to report favorable

Letter from Lancaster:
Mn. Bonsmx—Dear Sir :—Great religious feel
ing is now prevailing our city, and quite 14
large number of conversions 'have taken Place
within the last two or three 'weeks. 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.-.

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

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-,

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

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. As it is now, newspa

the "Power of the Press."
I see it announced in the papers, that two of

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. Yet/re, tc. PHILANTHROPIC.

CATAWBA BRANDY.
TTAVING received from A. F. Itsa.snn a: Co:, Whole-

or Pennsylvania, the appointment as AOENT FOR LEB
ANON COUNTY, we hag leave to can your attention to
this article.
This It RANDYIias for seceral years been manufactur
ed in Cincinnati, from the PURE JO/CE Of the CATAWeA
GRAPE. thus affording additional evidence of the progress
of -American Enterprise and Industry, and of our ability
to produce articles at home equal to those made by any
other nation.
'The OHIO CATAWBA. BRANDY not only equals, but
even excels the best imported Brandies in purity and
flavour. It is in fact the BEST ?MANDY KNOWN.—
This statement is fully corroborated - by the Certificates
of many of our most distinguished :analytical Chemists,
some of which accompany this hdvertisetnent.
The want of MKS BRA.NDT has long been felt in
this country, and the introduction of an article of such
quality as to supersede the sale and 'use of those rile
compounds hitherto sold under the name of Brandy, can
only be reg arded as a grout public good. The CATAW
BA BRANDY posee,se.s all the good qualities claimed for
the best imported Liquor, and is of perfect purity and
superior flavor. It is therefore fully entitled to the pat
roan-go of the public, as the following certificates will
show. We feel confident that its reception in this State
will be as favorable as that which it hes met with in the
Great West, and that the time is not far distant, when
the superiority or , ooa OWN Isqueas will put an end to
their importation from abroad.

What the'Parzners say:
A late writer says that "the various species of vermin
are multiplying at a fearful rate throughout the land.—
Their ravages , have become a matter of serious dread."—
A Postmaster in Illinois,_ writing to "Costar's" Depot,
says, "The country is literally overrun with them, (rats,
mice, &."...") Another from the` same State, says, The
rats positively gnaw the halters off my horses while id
the stable." An Ohio correvorident remarks, "They
(the rats) are everywhere—ln the house, •tbe barn, and
under every slump in the field". Tuttle South it is still
worse. A late order front the Nary Yard at Mobile was
for thirty pounds of the Rat Exterminator alone.

To your inquiries, I would reply, that when I 'first com

almost white, and had been so for the last ten years and
it was very thin on' the top of my hem], and very loose.
and pulled out freely; but I found that before I had used
all the second bottle, (which was eight weeks) my hair
was entirely changed to its original color, light brown,
and is now free from dandruff and quite moist, -I have
had my hair cut five or six times since the change, and
have never seen anything like white hair starting from
the roots; and it is now as thick as it ever was, and does
not come out at all. It has proved in my case all that I
could wish to ask:

[From the Missouri Democrat]
WOOD'S Mare. Du:—Tor. admirable article ia rapidly
improving the hair. No article of a similar kind, now bre
fore the public, enjoys a better reputation as a restorative
and invigorating hair tOll4O. Its peculiar chemical quali
ties have a benetcial effect upon the growth and character
of the hair, giVingasill - y and gry texture to that which
eras formerly of a coarse sAI nature. It has, taw , "
understand, a tendency to preserve the youthful color and
appearance of the hair: and destroying or counteracting
the effects of age. With ouch recommendations in its h
vor, we hardlyperceive howany lady or Rentlensan should
be without so valualde an adjunotto their toilet.
