The Newrcirk Poet.Offiee,finding the difficulty
of obtaining
_silver change, addressed a- letter on

referred to the Secretary of the Treasury: That

been made from other quarters, and adds :
Ithe,insply of American coin is found to be

ascertained; that , of foreign coinage, there is none
under these circumstances,
having no power to

ticularly when it. bears its present _premium ; all
that: : occurs to' me 'AS practicable in the way of
this Department is, in directing the

American coin all deposits of foreign silver coin;
andthis•will cheerfully be done on an intimation

Ts Congress, Mr. Chandler proposed to change

to-prevent it from going abroad. We think his

county. He commenced political life as a member
of the Legislature in 1839. Sincethat time he has
fltithfully represented big dietrict in Congress for el:
years. Hie position was with the National Demo

Although wo think the West was clearly entitled
to the-Senator, yet we are entirely satisfied with the
result. Mr. BIIODIMAD is a true, radical, National
Democrat; and this fact, alone, will entitle him to
the confidence of the honest Democracy of Penn.

The Forrest and Willis Aleatr.
We - published the other day the incident which
ocCurredletween Mr. Forrest and Willis, an ac
count of, which the latter gentleman had published.
Mr. Forrest replies to that statement ; as follows:
Mr. Forrat's,Card.—My attention having been
'calted-to a card of N. P. Willis, in this morning's
Tribune, I deem it proper to state that his charges
are consciously false. • It is false that I used to.
wards him in the street profane, abusive, or low
language. It is false that the audience at the
theatre was disturbed by any loud talking of mine—
(or I spoke in an ordinary tone of voice—or by
any gesticulations oa my part. But it is true, that
on Monday afternoon last, I met N. P. Willis
.on
the Fifth Avenue, and there'addressed him in these
wordin.--"You infernal scroundrel, liar, and coward,
this is the first time V have seen you since the
horse-wbipping I gave you in June last. Don't
tarn pale, I will, not lay Violent bands upon you.'
And he sneaked away without making any reply.
Conscious that he was the violator of my domestic
hearth, and bad desecrated and desolated a once
happy and cheerful home, he could not utter a
single word.
On - the evening of the same day, - I again met
him in the lobby of the Opera Home, and repeat.
ing the just epithets applied to him the same day,
I expressed my astonishment that one so degraded
and infamous should show himself in a respectable
assemblage. Mr. Willis then walked into the
dress circle, and then, for the first time, I knew he
was accompanied by ladies. I did not speak to
him after.
As to the absurd allusion of Mr. Willis, with
regard to the Penitentiary. I have only to remark,
that no one of my family was ever a sentenced
felon, and which unfortunately (or him the criminal
records of a sister State too plainly show was the
merited fate of one "whose veins bore blood like
his."
I do hot know how other men feelo.nd act under
the. persecutions and - - illegal prosecutions with
which Lho.ve bterulottlyavrtiled.„.e nu ngb--
which
a marr — whose only offence has been by fair
• and legal means to cast a moral leprosy from his
name, and which, when once performed, mast con

But thisl know, that not to have acted as I have
done towards N. P. Willis, I must have been either
more orleis than man. EDWIN FOIIREST.

The Illo.r.ortl.Vowdir Co.'s Works.
The Hazard Powder Company's Manufactory has
- long been established, and the quality of their gun
powder it well known throughout the country.—
They are making at the, present time seven hundred
and ylfly kegs Of gunpowder daily, though not yet
working up to the full capacity of their mills, which
consist of from seventy to eighty headings, spread
over a distacce of one pills in length. The town of
Enfield, in which the village or Hazardville is shun*
ted, also comprises the village of Thompsonvifle,
(long known for the large Carpet Manufactory, es.
tablished by Orrin Thompson, Esq.,) and is thus
distinguished by two of the largest manufacturing
establiahments of their kind, in this country or in
Europe.
Among the means employed by the Hazard Pow.
der Company we note thirteen water wheels: two
atewnengines, one of which, of about 100 horse pow.
er, was made by Stillman, Allen St Co., of New York,
sand is said to be one ",ot the finest engines in this
W
State. e mention, also, as a part of the machi.
nery referred to; used for incorporating theinaterials
of which gunpowder is composed, twenty•two cast
'iron rollers, weighing about eight tons each.
Of the powder manufactured by this Company, the
largest portion , is sporting ; of which the brands so
well known throughout the United Stites as the gen.
lucky Rifle and American Sporting, are regarded by
hunters and sportsman as equal to any powder
made in this country or in England. And we. may
heib add that this eatablialunent and that of Messrs.
Dupont, of Delaware, are believed to be surpassed,
in extent and magnitude, by no works of the kind In
Europe.
.It is not without pride and pleasure that we have
thus spoken of the works - at Thompsonville and Ha.
zardville, among the manufacturing establishments
, which open to the industrial enterprise of our peon
pie a field for development and employment; and
contribute largely to the general prosperity of the
State.—RarVord Courant.

The New York Journal of Commerce has advicee
from Lima to Dec. 9th. The Presidency ofGeneral
Castilla expires on the 20th of April next, and rev
erel candidates have taken the field for the succes

figured extensively In Peruvian affairs. Echenique,
President of the Council of State, is supported by
the Government, and thought to have a plurality of

With a large portion of the people devoted to hie
interests, te sustained by Gens. Moran, San Roman,
and other leading men,—whilo Ellin, having enter
ed the lists at a late day, they, perhaps, possess lees
personal influence,' but more gold; an important
element in this conflict. As there is little or no
probability that either of these candidates will ob
tain a majority ef the Electoral voter, the Election
must go before the Congress which meets In July,
and in the interval-between the close of Castilla's
term 20th April) and the meeting of. Congress,
(July.,) Echenique now president of the Council,
will assume the dulles of the Executive. Thit step
will be violently opposed by Vivanco, Elias and
their adherents; and the people of Arequipa, es.
pecially, have declared, that under no circumstances
will they submit to Echenique. Thus, a civil war
seems. inevitable, and the re-enactment of these

Acapulco contains a population of about 7000,
mostly natives, with here and there a mixture of
English, Spanish and American. The natives are
as much superior - to those - of Panama as is the
white to the colored racer The Indians here have
mixed with the Speniands, and the cross is alto
gether superior to where the negro is interspersed.
The senoritas are more delicate and refined, and
many possess uncommon beauty. They have
sprightly , and lively dispositioas, and are passion
ately ,fond of smoking the cigar, which is here
made for their especial nse, by wrapping some of
the leaf of the tobaccoln - paper; and the only in
troduction necessary is the presentation of one of
these petite cigars; but it you are`so fortunate as
to be able to speak Spanish, you are at once Wm..
shipped as a superior being, and nothing the house
affords is sufficiently'good for an -americana. The
houses are but one story high, with fiat, sloping
roofs, projecting some four feet over the sidewalk,
and affording a fine place for lounging in the sul
try afternoons. Many: ruins ere still visible, the
effects of the earthquake of '3/. The Catholic
religion prevails, though not carried to the extent
it is in Panama. ,During the three days we re
mained, I saw but one priest, and tie was officia
ting at the altar in the burial of a beautiful-senor
ita, who had died but aim hours' before, with the
cholera. Curiosity led me to attend the funeral
I found her, who but a few short hours since was
all life and gaiety, end whose prospects for the
future . were.as.bright end beautiful as could- have
been wished, bedecked as if for a marriage festi
val—head, arms and feet covered with - artificial
flowers. Deautiful idea. Why not make your
exit from -.this. and your entrance into another
world, with the beautiful paraphernalia becoming
a bride! ' _ • - -
Many, years since the natives attempted to dig
an opening - through, the mountain, which nature
had commenced but bad not quite finished, in or
der to let the etabreeze to upon the town, bat
owing, to the cost, it was abandoned long before its
completion. Had this project been carried
a much more healthy, atmosphere would have
prevailed.at this place,. Situated as it now is, not
a particle at the sea•breeze cools the burning heat
of this warm climate. The streets are narrow,
and no two run parallel, but very irregular. The
principal business• 'of the town is done - on the
plaza, a beautiful square, - washed on one side' by,
the.gentle waves of the hay, as the tide ebbs and
flows, and bounded on the other three by the prin
cipal buildings of the town. A small -but come

frieni nratca to es a oay or two since all alio
ccdote of early times in West Tennessee, which
we will attempt to repeat oven at the risk of losiog
the graphic'simplicity of his conversational narra.
Some eighteen or twenty years since e well-known
resident of Tipton county was put on his trial,charg
ed with the murder of his wife. As uaual in such ca.
see, popular feeling WU largely against him, and all
the eloquence 'and Ingenuity of his counsel were
'required to make any impression in his favor upon a
jury, which however impartial' it might deiire to be
in the concionsuess of sworn duty, could not but see
the waves of popular prejudice, surging in upon it.
The case - was ably argued. The counsel for the
defence made most vigorous and impassioned ap
peals. The cum woe submitted to the jury _ ; and
they retired, to Make up their verdict. Tirrio pass.
ad, and as the setting anti warned all of the approach
ing night, the large throng in attendance, the judge,
counsel, etc. retired, all anxious, the accused not
the least so, to learn the verdict of the jury, and
some wondering that the jury hesitated for one mo.
meet to`bring in a verdict of guilty. In the mean
time the jury bad come to a point beyond which they
could progress no further. The appeal. of the coup.
set Thr the defence had not been without their influ.
ence, and the jury stood unchangeably six for cone
viction and six for acquittal. Something bad to be
done. In those daya twelve good fellows could not
be got together for a night, and sleep. Cards ap
peared mysteriously from the depth of sundry large
pockets, - and exercises in seven-up and poker were
zealousy commenced.
About midnight one of their number, Col. P., pro
posed that they should play a game °leaven-up, the
result to decide the verdict. The proposition was
heartily and unanimously agreed to, in all serious..
nese, and the whole crowd collected around Col. P.
and his opponent, who - proceeded to play the game on
which was staked a human life. Cal. P. played to
save the accused. His opponent played, and quite
as zealously, to secure
, theconviction. The backers,
five and five, stood behind them, encouraging the
champions,
and watching the game, dimly soon by
the light' of' two tallow candles, with tho most in
tense interest.
The game proceeded with very equal fortune ' till
both parties stood at six and eix. It was Col. P.'s
deal ; he dealt, and Ivan= Jour.. The priamier
was acquitted, and every man of the juryjoined in a
shout which startled the whole village, even the rev.
cling " the grocery." Next morning the jury
went into court, and gave, to the astoniehment of
many, the verdict of " not guilty." The juryman
who played an unsuccessful game for human life,
still lives, a much respected citizen of this district.
°net:lithe counsel ia:a very diatinguisbed member of
the Memphis bar, and the accused has,wo be
lieve, gone to a higher - court; but neithr of them,
nor any of the assemblage, nor the court, who marv
eled at the verdict, eighteen years ago, have ever
known that a human life was saved by Coining Jack! ,
There are some curious episodes in the history of
our early nettlements but who would think am;
tilting life upon turning Jack.--Memphis Eagle.

would certainly lose not - only that one, but, a lso
the other would follow—it being a acrofalous affecton of
the blood. And I do certify, that at the time my father
(.I. E. Yastion,) came to the codelasion that we had bet.
