A corintinondent of the Naar York Courier
and`Enquireri writing from Florida, thus des
tribe's the famous fountain of Wakulla, which
has been rendered'historicatin the-annals of
Spanish adventure:
A few days since I returned from visit to
thiss fifainuslbuntain., I can motichfor its ex
istence. I 'suppose that the efficatiy . of its min.
virtues,has long .since vanished. But
'hi beauties are so extraordinary, and its whole
nature so anomalous as to excite in the behold
er no little admiration and wonder. "Wahalla"
Spr'ngs, for sn the Indians christened them,
are situated sixteen miles sour h from Tallahas
see. They firm the source of the Vrakulla
River, which, flowing directly south twenty
miles, mingles with the waters of the great
Gulf.
The airings, covering an area of some two
hundred yards in circumference. are entirely
embosomed in a dense forest of oaks and
cypresses, whose limbs are hung with banners
of gray moss, which give a solemn,tombre
appearance to the surroundings.. From the
shore you remark at once the singular clear
ness of the waters and the distinct colors of
blue and green which cover in patches its sur
face. By means of a rough scow and a stal
wart negro at the sweeps, our party was soon .
afloat. Not a ripple curled the smooth surface.

gazed down into the limpid depths. By actual '
measurement the bottom was two hundred
and eighty feet below ifs, yet we could distin

undulations, slipped to the bottom, and ap
peared undiminished in size. At times the
white sands were flecked with dancing, shad
owe, or when at rest were tesselated with hues ;
of every variety of shade. Shells and flakes
of mica radiated like prisms.
In gorne places immense trees wore reclin
ing upon beds of mess—like giants at rest.—
There were elevations and depressions, huge
ranges of a coral-like rock, " and valleys
stretching in pensive quietness between."
There were abrupt precipices and toppling i
crags which overhung abysses which no plum •
met has yet sounded. Mosses and water plants
eov ,, re 1 other places like forests of ferns. They
waved their top- as if fanned by a gentle
breeze. And there were vast troops of fishes
whose home life we could look in upon with
out breach of etiquette.
They seemed entirely unconcerned, looking
up at us with perfect indifference and moving

"Our fl being a very popular snhject at
all ii m o s and !, .ty partieular has given rise
to a sketch of its origin, design and formatiiin.
This pamphlet we have received, and find the
following statements of the "History of the
design of the present flagof the United States."
It seems it was designed by Capt. Samuel C.
Reid, defender of the privateer General Arm
strong, and made at his house, in New York.
by his wife and a numbe of young ladies. The
design was adopted by an act of Congress of
April 4, IRIS, and tics new flag was first
hoisted on the Capitol at Washington, 13th
April, ISIS. A resolution, acknowledging
Capt. Reid the author of the flag. and presen
ting him the thanks of Congress, has been
pending flir several sessions, and his claim for
the loss of his vessel has been on the private
calendar fir the last half century, and not
paid yet.—( Charleston Mercury.
To the above we add, that not only was
Capt. Reid the designer of the flag. but no
more gallant officer ever nailed it to the mast,
or fought his ship under it to the last stick.—
The brave old man, we fear, is somewhat
ashamed, this moment; that his flag is subject
ed to such usage at the hands of British spit
fires in the Gulf. Ile did not intend his Stars
and Stripes for this. Not for this did he flaunt
it in the face of a British fleet from the peak
of his little " General Armstrong," and keep
it flying there till the harbor of Fayal was
red with the blood of our Anglo Saxon cousins.
The lino of battle ship Plantagenet, the
Frigate Rota, and the brig Carnation, of 18
guns, all fell upon the brig "General Arm
strong." It is true there was war ; and she
was a privateer ; and lawfully their's if they
could clutch her on the open sea. But she
could lie in shallower whter than the great
ships, she boasted seven guns, and was corn
manded by Sam. Reid. The first attack was
by four large launches, carrying forty men
each, at eight o'clock at night. They were
driven off with heavy loss. Midnight came.
and with it "fourteen launches, and a force of
500 men." They surrounded the little brig,
and attepted to board her, to port and star
board, stEm and stern; the boarding pikes
were met by cutlasses; and the boarders, as
they sprang up the bulwark with a British
cheer, found pistol muzzles at their heads.—
Within an hour the four launches departed
minus half their men, and the privateer's
flag floated still. Daybreak brought the Car
nation, and regular sea fight. The Carnation
was so cut up that she retired out of reach ;
and then Capt. Reid scuttled his brig to pre
vent her from being brought off as a prize.
and abandoned her. " She was afterwards
boarded by the British, and set on • fire."
Truly they had earned her.
But Capt. Reid, he had earned surely some
thing. If he did not merit the thanks of his
country, at least he deserved to be kept harm
less. He ought not to have lost anything by
his heroic defence. Up to this day, he has
been refused all compensation. His claim of
course, was primarily against Portugal; because
Fayal was a Portuguese and a neutral port.
His government asserted the claim, and made
it their own. Portugal resisted ; the thing
was left to the arbitration of L•iuis Napoleon—
he decided against the United States. What
then? Was Capt. Reid to lose all. and that
after a defence that shed as much lustre on
the American arms as ever did Paul Jo es?
If a war should break out again, will Capt.
Reid fit out another privateer? We fear not

SAM PATCH'S LAST LEAP.—We find in an
old Rochester paper the following account of
the last leap of the fam ,us and foolhardy Sam
Patch, who lost his life in jumping over the
Genessee Falls, or rather at Niagara. His last
leap was taken November 18, 1829.
"This singular and presumptuous being
has indeed made his 'last leap.' Friday, the
18th November, at the hour appointed, in
handbills which had previously circulated,
headed ' Sam's last jump,' the banks of the
river on either side below the tells, for nearly
half a mile were crowded with spectators. Sam
appeared amid the shouts and hurrahs of the
expectant assemblage. A stage had been
erected twenty five feet higher than the brink
of the precipice, making the height about one
hundred and twenty feet. from which he was
to leap. lle had before jumped from the
precipice without injury, and now determined
to prove by experiment (in his own language)
that `,,time thingE , can be done as well as others, '
he ascended the stage, and was again greeted
by the cheers of the spectators. Sam addressed
those immediately below for a few moments,
in a language that seemed to say he halt'
anticipated the re alt of his rashness. After
adPisting his dyes bowed to the vast assem
blage, first upon the one side of the unenviable
station, then on the other, and deliberately
leaping off. was for a moment in mid air, and
then engulfed in the abyss beneath. We stood
near where he struck, and for a moment after
he had left the 'stage, heard not a word.
Each heart beat with a dreadful suspense,
and every eye was strained to behold his
rising. but they saw him not, for the water
still engulfed its victim. At length, when not
a wave or sign gave futher clue to hope, the
half formed shouts of joy died into breathing
murmurs of " He's dead I" He's gone!"
And in a moment the vast crowd knew full
well its truth, and turned half aside to conceal
the horror they felt. Thus has Sam Patch,
who had rashly, till now, sported with the
law of nature, given us an example that vain
and mortal man may not trifle with bounds
prescribed by God. The body has not yet
been found."

We have several cases of sun stroke to report since our

Some stir was mode in the political lino last week. The
three opposing candidates for Congress have been canvass

tha.peeple have been greatly edified. We have always
thought it i I became a man to solicit place or political
position for himself—that should be left to his friends.—
Therefore, we are not favorably impressed with the fash

half—telling the people of their own merits, and
demerits of their opponents. A man running for political
office, should be considered a political man, and pn'mmed
to stand upon the platform of the party so nominating
him, and VI it oink or swim. Suppose our candidates
for Constable would harangue the people from every store
box and every corner, how ridiculous it would appear—
We never knew a candidate for Governor, Congress or any
other position that gained anything by "stumping" for

the city know that the Black Republican party here is

Black Republican party in Missouri. Boerustein knows It,
and is determined if they, the Germans, must do the work
they must have the offices.
Out of about twenty offices—including the legislative

foreigners on the Black Repub icon ticket—all German but

RIVALRY AND JEALOUSY BETWEEN FRANCE
AND ENGLAND. —The Paris correspondent of
the New York Commercial Advertiser, writing
under date of June 24th, says the effect of the
Regina Cali slavery discussion in the British
Parliament, has been to arouse a degree of
irritation in France which has not before been
equalled. The writer adds the following:
"England, in provision .4 . 11 war with France,
has made an unnatural alliance with Austria,
for what end ? To let Austria loose on France
in case she should attempt to cross the channel
with an army. The same thing was done under
the First Empire, when Napoleon was at
Bologne, with his army ready to cross over to
England. Austria attacked him in the rear,
and be was obliged to leave Bologue, and
abandon his contemplated conquest of England,
to hurry to the defence of the Rhine. But
these will not be all the evils that will issue
from the Pandora's box which England will
open on France in case of war. By means of
money and promises, the Red Republicans of
France, Italy, and Germany will join the
crusade, and the third Napoleon, like the
First, will not be long in finding his Waterloo.
"It may be asked, what are the real
intentions of France toward England ? I
hard yesterday a counsellor of State say this:
It is notiour policy to quarrel with England,
because the interests of the two nations are
too closely identified ; but she has heaped
upon us lately insult after insult to such a
point that France is ready now for war, and
only waits an occasion; she will not seek the
occasion, but if it comes she will accept it with
delight. England is counteracting us in every
measure we propose in the interest of the East:
she is leagued with Austria to assist in this un
grateful work ; she insults us gratuitously and
boldly in her Parliamentary discussion on the
slave trade and in singular contrast with her
servility to the United States ; she exercises

this city will have any thing to crow over, even if Mr.
Blair is elected, for Mr. Winter, B. It., received 200 major

1858, and Mr. Filley, with a single opponent bad only 1000
majority in 1855. Now, for Mr. Blair to gain a victory he
must show an increase vote on his aide—that is he must
beat both candidates combined 200 votes, then he will
concede it a victory, but not otherwise. Every other dis

State will be Democratic and the Democratic

JIM LANE, THE MURDERER
We find in the Cincinnati Enquirer the fol-
lowing facts in relation to this notorious
scoundrel, who,—because he was.a leader
of the Abolition fanatics in Kansas, could
commit a cold-blooded murder in " self de
fence,"—copied from the Gazelle, a Republican
paper published in that city. We hope our
readers will peruse the facts attentively :
THE DIFCHARGE OF THE MURDERER, JIM
LANE, IN KANSAS.—Our readers have been
apprised that the great Republican champion,
Jim Lane. has been discharged by the exam
ining magistrate in Lawrence, Kansas, they
adjudging that his murder of Jenkins was no
crime. but was d.cle in self defence. Had Lane
not been a leading Republican politician he
would have been, executed or sent to the
Penitentiary for a long term of years. His
discharge was owing solely to his supposed
political services to the Republicans. Of this
decision the Kansas correspondent of the
Gazette says :
Though this result was not unexpected,

this quarrel, by making a vexatious claim to
land to which he had no title, how he tried to
compel Jenkins by threats and otherwise to
compromise and give him half of it, and how,
when he found it was impossible to frighten
Jenkins into any compromise, he finally pro
yoked him into hostile attitude, where he
could get an excuse for killing him. To those
who know all this, it appears a most deliberate
murder. He knew there was no possibiliiy
making any arrangement with Jenkins; with
him his case was hopeless. but may not be
so with his administrators of representatives."

wonderful effects and consequent popularity—perhaps no
article in the history of the Materin Medica, ever acquired
the same patronage, was subjected to the same number of
severe and different tests, and met wiih so few failures as
the Mustang Liniment. It has justly been styled a Pana
cea for external Wounds, Cuts. Swellings, Sprains, Bruises,
of Eiuptions on Mon or Beast. It is so far a m-dlclue of sur
prising virtue, that Physicians are compelled to prescribe
it; and fr au some remarkable cures of Chr ',tic and Dis•
forted Rhruntalic cases It has naturally attracted much
ath•ation from the first scientific minds of the age. No
I:surly can affird to be without a bottle of the Mustang
in the house. Beware of unit lions. The genuine•
is sold by respectable dealers in all parts of the world.—
