We are now in the city, hayingnrrived here -yesterday, and oh ! ye gods! what a city ! Wil `lingly would I give you a full' description of it had I the language, bu.t..l feel that I am not equal to the task. Nay, language has not 'the power—the reality - must be seen to be fully ap preciated. The magnificence of the city and its extent, its palaces, towers, public squares, groves of oranges anirlemons, (its delicious fruits), and shady walks, the. manners, customs and peculi arities of its citizens must all be seen to he fully appreciated. The above description falls far short; but I shall endeavor to give you a full description of it in my " Journal" which you can read when I return ; at present I have not time to do more. Yours, Slave Abduction Prevented The Richmond (Va.) Enquirer publishes an ac count of a curious affair which occurred at that place on Tuesday last, the main points of which are condensed as follows: Much excitement was produced yesterday by a strange incident at the Depot of the Richmond and Potomac Railroad . Company. A negro drayman carried to the office of Adams & Co.'s Express two large square boxes, addressed to " P. Williamson, No.—Buttonwood Street, Philadelphia." On being interrogated as to whence they came, the negro '''showed some confusion. Still the boxes were pla tted on the Express wagon and transported to the cars. As the driver of the wagon turned one of the boxes over rather roughly, he heard a sort of .grunt, which proceeded from it. Suspicion was aroused, the boxes opened, and each one was found to contain a stout negro, carefully folded up, with a small quantity of bread and a bladder of water, and one of them with a FIN-a useful article in his warm situation. On examining the boxes a large auger hole was observed in each box, partially con cealed by a stout rope-knot, which could be with drawn while in the care, and allow the entrance of air. The negroes, we hear, belonged, one to Mrs. C. Christian, of New Kent, the other to Mr. Govan's estate, and were employed as waiters, one at the Washington and the other at the Columbian Hotel. Their story is ; that they had been prepared for transportation by Mr. S. A. Smith, who keeps a small, shoe store on Broad street. in Mr. J. Lyon's new buildings, and that they paid him well (some $6O each) for the job. This Smith formerly kept a shoe store at the sign of the "Red Boot;' opposite the Old Market, and has also been a lottery vender. We hear that some years ago he'was intimate with Blevins, the great negro kidnapper, (now in the penitentiary) and. that on the trial of the latter, a letter to, or frorri, the same "P. Williamson, - Phil adelphia, was read in evidence. Smith was yesterday morning present at the open ing of the boxes, and immediately went up the street and took the Northe'm cars as they passed. This fact being made kno am, after• the cars had depart ed, a telegraphic desphteh was sent to Fredericks burg to arrest him there. The negro draymaii represents that Smith directed him to state at the express office that the boxes were from the armory. At 1 P. M. news was brought by the telegraph, that terror of evil-doers, .that Smith had been ar rested at Fredericksburg., He was last evening brought down in the cars, and deposited in jail, to be examined before the Mayor: at 10 o'clock this morning. From the Natiohallnfilligencer From China. We thank Dr. Young, the Chief Clerk of the Navy Department for the Hong Kong China Mail, down to the 27th of February. The Mai/ contains an interesting account of a visit paid by the Imperial Commissioner Sue. to the U. S.,ship Plymouth at Whampoa. The cor tege consisted of thirty boats, bearing the ensigns of the Madarins. On their approach', Commodore Geisinger sent his boat, under the command of the flag lieutenant, with his flag and that of Dr. Davis, our Commissioner to China, a ceremony that was reciprocated by Sue. A Chinese salute of three guns being fired, the Chinese flag flying at the fore. Sue and his suite came on board and werereceived by Dr. Davis and the United States Cdnsuls at Canton and Hong Kong—Dr. Parker acting as interpreter. After the usual ceremonies of recep tion and the shaking of Sea's left hand by the com pany; they proceeded to the cabin, where tea was served. Sen sat between Dr. Davis and Com. Geisinger, and Dr. Parker opposite. Only Com of the Manda rins sat. Seu was in fine spirits, and chatted with ease and good humor. He was dressed very plain ly-, with nothing to indicate his high rank, except a button of the first class. Not so dignified as. Keying he is fully his equal in state-craft. His forehead:is high, and his eye hazel. He is a man of a very high order of intelligence, and a native of Horan province. He is 33 years old,' and has a wife and four sons. On revisiting the deck, he ex pressed himself delighted with the ship; and on its being intimated to him that the Commodore would gladly show him the effect of a shell thrown on the opposite shore, he promptly declined, on the ground-that the shell in exploding, might injure or kill some one. The Mai/ (Mei, not think he is so cruel a ruler as he has been -represented. After witnessing the scaling of the guns and several manceuvres on the deck, the' party returned to the cabin, to partake of dinner in the American style. The export of Tea to the United States from China. from January 1 to February 19, IS4 was G,I 37 ; 110 lbs., of which quantity 1,521,010 lbs. were black, and 4,615 ; 1151 were green.

CANLDA.—The Canada papers are unanimous in their advice to the people to withhold further vio lence, and await the result of the numerous peti tions which have been forwarded to the Queen praying the recall of Lord Elgin and the disallow ing of the Indemnity bill. Torucco Pnoscurnsn.—At the late session of the New England Conference of the Methodist Cler gyman, at Springfield, Mass., a report was made on the subject of temperance, which concluded with the following resolution, relative to the use of tobacco : Whereas, True temperance implies a total absti nence from all things injurious to health, and only a moderate use of those things which promote it, therefore Resolved, That while we advocate the cause of total abstinence from all intoxicating liquors, we will also, eve'rywhere, by example, and on all proper occasions by precept, discountenance the vulgar use of tobacco. Printing - in England. Yd America. A letter from London to, the Boston Post, thus compares the facility with which books are printed in London and New York. "The art of pnnting advances far more rapidly in America than here. Liverpool, nearly as large as New York, has no printing done by steam. In London, but one or two printers of books, print by steam, and very rarely print more than twelve pages of a 12mo. book at a time. From an exten sive acquaintance with the manner and speed of book-printing in New York and London, I will vouch for the fact that of all the books printed in the two cities, our printers print three copies to the Londoners' one in the same time. First-class pub lications are generally better got up' in England than Amelica. But, got up equally as well, the New Yorkers will print their two copies to their one. Not one book in four in London is stereotyped, In New York three. out of four. In London one publisher lately boasted that he actually published a book in three days from the time he received it. That is quoted as an acfraordinary operation that was actually accomplished, once. In New York the Harpers have issued many a book in from twenty-four to thirty hours after its receipt. But I will not multiply examples to show the greatest amount of enterprise or inventive genius in America B. G... Letters from St. Joseph, (Mo.) dated April 45th. says:—From what I have been able to ascertain. there appears to be a greater number of emigrants rendezvousing at this point than at Independence. At the commencement of the season this was not anticipated by the good people of the latter place, or expected by the business men or citizens of St. Joseph. The, roads, in every direction, are lined with the wagons of emigrating parties from the lower coun ties of Missouri, and from lowa, Wiscqnsin, Michi gan and Illinois. The majority of these intend moving leisurely as far as Fort Kearny and Coun cil Bluffs, and there make their final start. Up to this time at least three thousand emigrants have arrived at this point, en route for California. Several companies have already departed, and :ire sow about one hundred miles from the frontier: they intend remaining in camp for sonic days at Grand Island, which is about two hundred and eighty miles distant. The roads from Independence, stt. Joseph, Fort Kearney and Council Bluffs, there connect. The trying times to many will arise he fore they succeed in reaching Grand Island. Postal communication ceases alter leaving their several places of rendezvous, and the emigrant has no ready means to communicate to his friends his progress, N,e. From the Lexington (Mo.) .11.7:yrrss, we clip the Hardly an hour in the day passes, but what wagons may be seen passing on their way to Cali fornia. Many, we hear, take the left hand road at Old Town, and go to Independence. Others cross the river here, for St. Joseph. (hi the other side of the river, train after train are passing up. A letter in the St. Louis Reveille, dated near Fort Kearney, April 2 I th, says: We are all in good spirits, and have, I think, passed through almost the greatest trials of our trip—the "breaking in" part being generally the hardest part of an undertaking. Indeed, our early arrival here has been very advantageous to us, as we shall be completely prepared for the journey— for its exposures and all emergencies. We have nothing to apprehend from the Indians—not even the stealing of our animals. This point has been selected by the Mormons as much the best route to the States, either in returning or going out, and will be taken by those emigrating this spring.— Several hundred Mormons are expected here in a few days. The buflido are very numerous two hundred and fifty miles from this. Advise friends to procure everything : either at St. Louis, Indepen dence or St.. Joseph, as nothing but corn can be procured here, and even that not conveniently.— This route is very desirable—the road, for several hundred miles. being unexceptionably good; plenty of water is found in the valley of the Platte by digging two and a halt feet, wherever they choose to camp. The..water is better in warm weather than when procured from the river. This is im portant to travellers, as they can stop to camp whenever they wish, and, beside, after striking the Platte, the road is parallel with it for several hun dred miles. 1 have not learned about the facility of procuring wood, but it is not so iinportant as water grass—that is, if those'emigrating are props - rovided with pilot bread and dried meats, as we are; also, with chafing dishes and spirits /rine. We are thus entirely. .independent of wood and buffalo chips- 7 particularly when it rains— and can make our coffee under the tent or in the FECUNDITY OF YANKEE INGENUITY.—There are in the Patent Office at Washington, not less than seventy-live distinct patents for Yankee washing• machines: the total number of inventions as per patent may be guessed from that data. The wildest dream of fancy—the highest range of thought—the boldest stretch of the iniagi nation does not comprehend. It is necessary that the eye should see in order to fully understand.— Fathers, mothers, brother and sisters hold up their hands in astonishment on beholding the tremendous stock of Clothing at Jos. Gormley's. Even tailors look appalled and give it up. The purchaser who takes but one view of this immense stock, cannot see any other. True, he visits other stores, and to satisfy himself goes to Philadelphia, but quickly re turns, finding that other clothing houses are but 'notes in comparision. His ideas run in immensity —his eyesight has been dazzled by the superior quality of the material; the exceeding low priCes and the new and elegant Spring !kyles at Lancaster Hall. In vain is he olkred credit: his eye's have hems opened, and he now calculates the advant:me of purchasing superior goods at Lancaster Hall fir cash, full 30 percent. below credit prices.

(May 15-10 [Certificate rrom the Principal or the Pro.lonia (New York ] ) Seminary.] Fredonia, July .17th, 1 846. Dr. Seth W. Fowle—Dear :—From my youth I have been subject to lung complaints. In Febru ary last I took cold—a cough set in, and though slight in the beginning, I made use of the simple remedies which I :always kept liar that purpose. (These tailing, I resorted to others, but my cough increased in violence, and a pain in the side and right lobe qf the lungs set in, which soon became very distressing and at intervals were attended with oppressive strictures on the lungs.) During this time I expectorated freely, but the mucus raised from the lungs indicated a disease deeply seated. Two or three Physicians kindly sent me their medicines, which have been very efficient in curing roughs, but they FAILED to reach my case, and 1 began to be somewhat uneasy. My cough was considerably aggravated. A friend advised me to try the BAL SAM OF WILD CHERRY - , but I told him 1 haul swallowed medicine enough. Well, sir, I coughed out that day and the night following, and the next day my Piend urged me again to try 4 ' Doctor Wistar," and at 3 P.

I procured •• bottledrank of it- 7 iread the directions—continued taking it from that bottle one week, and when the Balsam! was gone my cough and pains were gone, and I &ice not coughed since.
