I regret that I am unable to reproduce the spirit and humor with which thelnimitable Jndge graced his simple Btory> hut I will , do my best to remember his.owa words. , “When I was only eight years old,”.said dodge N., “my father and my mother being poor, with half adozen children better than my self to take care of, I was given to a farmer , in tbe town of F-———, who designed making a plough-boy of me, and kept me.- in his service until I was of age.- “Well. I had not a very gay time in Deacon Webb’s service; for although be was an honest deacon, and a tolerably kind man in his fami y, ha believed, in making boys work, and understood : how to' avoid spoiling them by indulgence. “ So I had plenty of work to do, and an abun dant lack ofiudulgonces to enjoy, .ltwascon eequently a great treat for os to get tho enor mous sum of one or two pennies into.my posses- ( sion, by any sort of good fortune—a circnm aianco of such rare occurrence, that at the age of eleven, 1 bad learned to regard money ns a blessing bestowed by Providence only on a favor ed few. “ Well, I had lived' with Deacon Webb three years before X knew the color of any coin except the vile copper. By an accident I learned the j color of gold. That is the story lam going to . tell you. "Ono Saturday night, Mr. Webb sent me to the village store on somo errand; and.on return ing home, just about dusk, myattention was at troclod by a little brown package, lying on the road side. ; - . ' 41 1 picked it up to examine its contents, with out the least suspicion of the treasure within.— Indeed; it was so light, and tho volume of brown ■ paper appeared so large, that I undoubtedly sus peotod- that I was the victim of an April fool, although it was the month of June. I tore open the folds of the paper, however, and discerning nothing, I was on the point of throwing it into - the ditch, when something dropped out of it, and fell with a Tinging sound upon a stone. “ I looked at it in astonishment. It was yel low, round, glittering, too bright and too small tor a penny. I felt of it, I squeezed it in my fingers, I spelled out the inscriptions, then something Whispered to me that it. was a gold coin of iuoaiculablo value, and that, if I did not wish to lose it, I hod better pocket it as soon as possible. , ... 44 Trembling with excitement, I put the com in roy pocket.* But it would not stay there..— ’ Every two minutes I had to take it out and look at it. But," whenever I met anybody, I was ■ careful to put it out of sight. Somehow I felt a guilty dread of finding an owner to the coin. Provided I found none; I thought it was honest ly mine, by right of discovery; and I comfort ed thyself with the sophistry that it was not my business to go about the streets, crying, ‘who’s lost T V * “ l went home with the gold in tny pookot. would not have th© deacon’s folks know what v liad found, for the world. I was sorely .troubled with the fear .of losing my vast and incalculable treasure. This was not all. It ©denied tome that my face betrayed my secret. I could not look at anybody with an honest eye. « These troubles kept me awake half the night, and projects for securing my treasure by a safe investment,, the other half. On the following morning,- I was feverish and nervous. When Deacon Wobb, at the breakfast tabic, said, “‘William!’ “I started and trembled, thinking the next • words would be— ' _ , «*‘Where is that piece of gold you have round, and wickedly concealed to keep it from the right ful owuer ? 1 “Bat he only said, „ *• ‘1 want you to go to Mr. Baldwin s this - morning, and ask him if he con come and work forme-to-day and to-morrow.”- “ I felt immensely relieved. I left the house, and got out Of eight as soon as possible. ' Then onus more' I took the coin out of my pocket, aiid ■ feasted on its beauty. Vet I-was .unhappy.— ■ Consciousness of wrong troubled - me,-and 1 al most fished I had not found the sovereign.— Would l not be called a thief, if discovered? I asked myself. Was it not as wrong to conceal what I had fonad, os to take the same amount originally from the owner’s pocket? Was not he defrauded the same? “ But then I said to myself— -“'“Why, if t don’t know whotbeloser is, bow calf I give him his money ? It is only because I am atraid Deacon Webb will take it away from -me, that I conceal it; that’s all. I would not steal gold; and if the loser should ask me for it, I would give it to him.’ “ I apologized thus to myself all the way to Mr. Baldwin’s house ; but, after all, it wouldn’t do- 'The gold was,-like a hoavy stone, hound to, my heart. It was asort of unhappy charm which gave an evil Bpirit power to torment me. And I could not help thinking that I was not half Bo well pleased with my immense riches as I. had been with a rusty copper; which I had found some weeks before. Nobody churned tho penny, although I kept my good fbrtuno nosecret; and I had been as happy as a king—or as a king is commonly supposed to he. ‘•Mr. Baldwin was not ot home; and I return ed to the deacon’s house. I saw Mr. Wardley’s horse standing at the gate, and I was terribly frightened. Mr. Wardly was a constable, and I knew he hail come to take me to jail. So I hid in the garden until he wentawoy. By thattime reason began to prevail over cowardice, and I made my appearance at the house. The deacon looked angrily at me. . “Now, thought I, feeling faint, lie s going to accuse me of finding the gold. “But ho only scolded mo for being so long about my errand. “I never received n reprimand so willingly.— His severe words sounded sweet I had expect ed something somuoh more terrible. «, •<! worked all day with the gold in my pocket. I wonder Deacon Wobb did not suspect some thing, I stopped so often to see if the gold was really there; for, moch as the possession of it troubled me, the fear of losing it troubled me scarcely less. I was miserable., I wished a hundred times I had not fonnd the gold. I felt that it would bo a relief to lay it down on the rood side again I wrapped it in brown paper, - just as I had -found it. I wondered if ill-got wealth made everybody, so miserable. "‘At night I was sent again to Mr. Baldwin’s, - and, having found bim, obtained his promise to work at Deacon YTebb’s on the following day. “It was dark when I went home, and I wns afraid of?robbers. I never felt so cowardly in - my life.- It seemed* to mo that anybody could, rob me with a dear conscience, because my treasure was; not mine. I got home, and went , trembling to bed. “Mr. Baldwin came early to breakfast with us. I should tell you something about him. He was - on honest, poor man, . who supported a large family by hard work. Everybody liked him, he was so industrious and f&ithful ; and besides: making good wages for hiß labor, be often got presents of meat and flour from these who em ' ployed him. . . ■ _ - “well, at the breakfast table, after Deacon. Webb had asked the blessing, and given Bald win a piece of pork, so that he might eat and get to work as soon as possible, something was said about the news. . ■ <‘l suppose you have heard about my misfor tune,” said -Mr.: Baldwin. “Yonr misfortune ?” ! “y e g.” . - “Why, what has liappcncd-to-you?” asked the Beacon. ■■■ v ■. • ’ , “Ithought everybody budbeard of it,’ replied Baldwin. “Ton see, the other night, when Mr.- Wooly .paid me, he gavemea gold .pieces” -.-- “I* started, ind felt theblood' forsaho my cheeks. All eyes were -fixed upon Baldwin bow ever, as my trouble was not observed. - > “A soTerign.” said Baldwin—“the first one I • ever had mmy life, and it seemed to mo that? if .1 Bbonldputifcin my pockety dikea--center a half, dollar, 1 should lose it. So, Ufee a goose, I wrapped it up in apiece of paper, and stowed it- Vsx my pocket, where Ithought it was- flafo. !

The aUasioa to i conscience brought the gold out of mjrpocket. I resolved to make a clean breast of it, ; and be' - - honest, in spite of-my. poverty and shaiuo. So. I held the gold in my trembling hana, ond - gsid, “ ‘ls this yours, Mrs-Baldwin?’ “My voice was so faint that he did not hear me.' Sol repeated fay question in a mors ' , courageous tone.

EOITORUL COBRE3PONDKNCE Philadelphia, March 10,;l8S2. Dear Phillips:—i have been so busily engaged, since my arrival in this city, that I have found itimpossihle, until the present moment, to write a letter for the benefit of our numerous readers. Philadelphia, I am told, uever presented so much activity as it does this spring. The city iscrowd ed with strangers, principally* merchants from the West and South, who are purchasing their spring and summer stock of goods. The hotels are fall to overflowing with customers, and many persons are compelled to find repose for the night upon the floors. Market streetis crowded to overflowing with boxes, piled up “ like Fe lton upon Ossa,” so os to render it almost im possible for pedestrians to find their way along. Cbesnut Btrcct is a moving panorana of mortal ity, beanty, gaitey, folly and vice. It is un questionably the most beautiful Btrcet I ever beheld, and there appears to bo a rivalry among the shop keepers as to who shall get up the most splendid adornments to attract the eye. The oil Quaker habits of, tho people oro rapidly disappearing. William Pens would gaze in as tonishment, should ho arise from the dead, attho extravagance of his descendants 1 Thero are a thousand objects of attraction and interest in Philadelphia to afford themes for nowspaper paragraphs, hut it would require o long residence hero to become familiar with them, so os to speak of them intelligently. The first-place of notoriety I visited wos Gi rard College, which is situated on Fairmount, about a mile and a half from the State noose. Itis truly a magnificent building, ami is an honor hot only to the memory of the founder, .but to the city of Philadelphia. The main building is made entirly of pure white marble, and is of the Grecian style of architecture. Tho building is surrounded with massive pillars of marble, which give to tho whole a chaste and classic ap pearance. As the visitor enters the front door, the first object that attracts the eyo is a marble etatuo of Stephen Girard, which is said to be a correct representation of that extraordinary man. This statue stands immediately in front of a plain marble tomb, within which repose the remains of the man whose wealth gave existence to this noble institution. Through the polite ness of ray old friend, Professor Stephens, (every person who has heard of “ Nantucket pint ” knows tho gentleman of courso,) I was taken through the entire collego building, and theiarge buildings adjacent, used for- boarding and Bleeping apartmentß, and the, preparatory classes. Order, cleanliness, neatness,'comfort, are evetywhere to be seep. From the top of tho college, (the roof is made of Blabs of marble also) there Is a grand view of Philadelphia and the surrounding country. There are now, I believe, Bomo.two hundred and fifty pupils re ceiving instruction and maintenance in the. Co l Mr. William Tl. Allen is the President, and Professor L. Stephens, instructor in English and Mathematics, assisted by numerous other teachers in the various departments. The next place of interest in Philadelphia to visit is Dr. David Jayne’s great building, on Chesnut street. It is 4$ feet in width, 136 feet in depth, and is eight stories high. The height of the building above the pavement is 90 feet, and the height of the cupola !13 feet, making tbs elevation above the pavement 129 feet, to which may be added 27 feet far the stones under ground, or foundation, which makes the entire altitude, from bottom to top, 150 feet! The materia! Of which this immense structure has been constructed is. granite, from the Quincy quarriea r in Massachusetts, ulhe front of this building has numerous columns, which inclose Oothio windows, and the whole is.crowned with Gothic cornice.. I was: also token through the bnilding from foundation to turret,, by one of the polite clerks ofthe establishment. From the top Ihad another magnificent view of Phila* delphia and environs, the shipping, ..navy- yard, Camden, &0., &c. The cost of Jayne’s building exceeds s3so,ooo—tho ground alone cost $144,-; 000. If Dr. Jayne hod not advertised imthepa pers he never would, hove been able to erect this wonder Of Philadelphia. Mind that, rea der! ’ , ' The third great building of Philadelphia is the Girard House, situated on Chermont street, between Eighth and Ninth. "Iris altogether the largest and most magnificent Hotel I have ever seen,: It is. impossible to - conceive of. a more beautifully finished and furnished bnilding. Ev erything is-rich: and gorgeous in the extreme. The gronnd- on which the Girard- Hons© was erected cost $76,000; the bnilding cost $160,- 009; and the Furniture $lOO,OOO. There are 1 283 rooms in tho bouse, and there are accora- inodatlons for 460 visitors. The building was -ejected by Geo. W. Howards, Esq., of this city, pud is under the management oT Messrs. Geo.. G. Presburg and James B.' .Billings, two . active' und intelligent .business: men-^ Tfivo give their personal attention lothe affairs of the. house, and spare neither pains nor .expense to - make their guests comfortable.- y ' lam stoppingat tho Merchant’s Hotel, North Fourth street, kept by onr old townsmen Messrs. C. &J. McKisbin. It is-a most excellent house .and- it is doinga tremendouß business. Indeed, it is a perfect jam all tho time. The Western i merchants, especially, those from the neighbors hood of Pittsburgh, stop there, as it is In tho heart of lho business-part of tho city. There is no local news here worthy of being chrouicled in Ihecolumnsof the Post. 1 learned this evening from our fnend John S. CosgrnYe, that tho cars ran off the track on the Pennsyl vania Railroad, on the Juniata, on Tuesday, and were thrown down a considerable distanco, into the chasm below. There were no lives lost, al though Mr. Cosgravo was severely injured. l. n In Ins farewell speech in Louisville, Kossuth , administered a sovero and well merited rebuko to those gentlemen who abused tho privney of his interview with Mr. Clay, by publishing their confidential conversation. We thought at the time that such conduct was no better than that of eavoB-droppers. The remarks of Mr. Clay were made in his chamber, and Kossntli sajs, that out of respect and personal affection for the distinguished invalid ho refrained from an swering them, preoisely because ho took the in terview to bo a private one. Even then (in Louisville) ho refrained from entering into a discussion from tho same considerations of deli cacy Wo are glad to soo that he did not com promise Ins sense of gentlemanly propriety in tho matter, even if the sensibilities of others showed obtusity and provoked a reply. We havo not published tho speeches of Kos suth in tho West and South on account of their numbers. They evince a wonderful and mex haußtiblo mino of thought, and tho metal does not seem to deteriorate ns tho mine is worked. We have space only to givo the closo of his speech at Louisvillo, in winch he gives a capital hit at the cowardly conduct of some of the of ficers of our squadron in tho Mediterranean.— ::::: MARCH 16. His gentleness towards them only provokos tho Indignant frown of the people whom thoy serve a people that never will ho dazzled by tho pa geantries of royalty, or intimidated by tho threats of all the absolutists on tho earth.— After showing tho progress of Russian diplomacy in Europe, and what may be apprehended from the natural enemy of democratic institutions in this country, through its Satanic wiles, he thus concludes: Gentlemen, would 1 had had time to say, in a few abort words, that which, by want of time, l hove so diffusely said; and would I had had time many tilings else to say again in well-di gested, short words. But day by day a meet ing day by day a some what elaborate speech— and in the night trumpet serenades and fire alarms and merry songs, instead of a little sleep and never a moment’s fresh air or a moment's ezercise, but from the writing desk to the tri bune, and from the tribune to the writing desk that is indeed more than I can endure—and I am wont to endure much; so excuse mo for not having answered your expectations, and allow me to’draw to a close. Great countries are iu the necessity to hold the position of a power on earth. If they do not thus, foreign powers dispose of their most vital interests. Indifference to the condition of the foreign world is a wilful abnegation of the position of a power on earth. That position abandoned, independence is abandoned. Neutrality, ns a constant rule, is impossible to a great power. j Any small countries, ns Switzerland and Bel gium, can exist upon the basis of neutrality. Great powers can remain neutral in a partic ular case, but they cannot take neutrality for a oonstant principle, and they can chiefly not re main neutral m respect to principles. Great powers can never play with impunity the part of no power at all. Neatrality as r.-principle is so much as indif fereneo to the condition of tho world. Indifference of a great power to the condition of the world is so much as a ohance given to foreign powers to regulate tho interests of that indifferent foreign power. Remember tho Sybilline books. Look in | whot light you appear before tho world with your policy of indiffercnco. Look at the instructions of your novy in tho Mediterranean, recently published, forbidding American ofiioers oven to speak polities in Eu rope. \ Look at the correspondencies of your commo dores and consuls, frightened to their very souls that a poor exile on board an American ship, is cheered by the people of Italy and France, and charging him for the immense crime of having met sympathy without any provocation on his part, and tha t he ia possessed with tho doviL Look at thu cry of nstonishmont of European writers, that Americans in Europe are so little republican. Look how French Nnpolconlst papers frown indignantly at tho idea that the Congress of the United States dared to honor my humble self. Look how they consider it almost an insult, that an American JTinister, true to his always professed principles, dares to speak about Euro pean politics. Look how one of my aristocratical antagonists who quietly keeps houso iu France, where I was not permitted to pass, and who, a tool in other hands, would like to cheek my endeavors to benefit my country, because he would liko in some other way to get home than by a revolu lution, and into a republio—look how he from Paris, in London papers, dares scorn the idea that Amoricn could protend to weigh anything in the scale of European events. Do you like this position, freo republicans of America? And yet that is your position in the world now, and that position is tho consequence of your adhering even then to your policy of in difference, when it would have been a necessity to oct like o power on earth. Remember the Bybilline books. The first throe were burned when you silently lot Russian in terference be accomplished in Hungary, and not giving us the saving bark of your recognition when wo hod achieved and declared our inde pendence. Six books yet remain. Tho spirit of the age, tho sybitla of opportunity, holds tho other three books over the fire. Do not allow her to burn them—else only tho Inst three remain, and I fear you will have, without profit, more to pay for them—when you would havo bought all the nine, and with them tho glory nnd happiness of on eternal mighty republic. Sir, yon have told me that I am hated by the despots. Indeed, so it is. My post was full of suffering—my present full of sorrows and toils; and who knows what the future will bring? Still I say, with elevated -brow and humble heart, 1 thank Thee; oh my-God, that Thou host judged me worthy to be hated by tyrants! I have the tranquility of my conscience that I have done what an honest map could do, to have well se« cured that hatred; and, I swear to do all I can to merit it still more. , Gentlemen, I humbly thank you for your kind ness, and bid you an : sffeotionate farowelL Government Bills tinder Protest. Wo learn from the Baltimore Sun that a bill tor $4,000, drown by the Purser of a U- S. ship on the Paoifio coast, upon the Department at Washington, and endorsed by the commander, was cashed at San Francisco, and forwarded to How York for collection. On presentation at Washington, payment was refused, and it was returned to Californio. Within a few days, a bill for Government supplies to the amoun o $16,000 was drawn by Capt S. Van Vhet, upon tho Quartermaster's Department, and the <kaft forwarded by the cashier of one of the New York banks, to Washington, for collection. On Monday it was alao returned accompanied by the statement that the appropriations to that department have all been expended, but that it ■would be paid as soon as Congress made the ne ceasary appropriation. This should admonish the Peoplethatwewant a “change” at headr quartern. Itappeara tobe necessary. The : Galphin*diseaffe has prevailed bo long %ith the preßjeht administration that a “change” must take place or the Government will collapse.

AU seemed to have met ] there far the purpose of offering and receiving , Jeu toy meat; and I presume that thero Was not 1 one, of all that large party, who. did not go home umh*r tho Influence of warmer and more elovat* I cil social feelings, than when he came.

I could not help asking myself—l Tow little is known of thcßO people ; though so many of them arc in our mtdst 1 How little are appre ciated—how Httlo understood! .Their, very , name as a people, is by some, used'as q term of | derision; and their manners and habits aro ) made subjects for ridiouleby manyonly those, , however, who aro not only ignorant of the real i oharacter of tho German People,, but who. keep , thomselves so free from nil connection with , i them, that they are likely forever to remain ig i norant of a nation who havo given to the world i more that is valuable in science, and who havo : impressed more ennobling features upon the i community, than any People on eorth. No peo i pie arc more eminently soci d, none ore kinder I in all their domestio relations; none oro in gen** i eral bettor educated; none aro moro slmplo- I minded and honest; and none more faithfully attend to thovanons dutiesdevolvingupon them.

I am pleased to be able to say, that tho Ball of Thursday night was not only the affair of the [ season; but the most pleasant affair that has [.been enjoyed foy many seasons; and that it has probably never been equalled in the city of Pittsburgh.

The Pennsylvanian says I that the Sping elections in New York exhibit 1 satifactory results to tho Democratic party ia all j the cities but Buffalo, while in the Rural Dis- j tricts the gains have been large beyond the ex pectation of our brethren of that State. There j is hardly a county in the State, in which tbp Democratic vote is not up to the tnaik reached in former years, before division or disaffection was known in the ranks of the party. The strongest democratic counties of old, were those in which tho fend raged with greatest violence from 1&47 to 1850. In these the party is en tirely united and gives promise of larger major- I hies than ever.. We allude more particularly to Oneida, Otsego, St. Lawrence, Onondaga, Dela- : ware &c. The vote of these counties is In strik ing contrast with that Of those counties which have uniformly, upto the election of last Fall and this BpriDg, proved reliable for overwhelming Whig majorities. While tho Democrats are closing up their ranks in the former, the breach amongst the Whigs is widening in the latter. Of these, It Is sufficient , to instance Monroe, whose vote is now no indi cation of the preponderance of Whig sentiment, but of the relative strength of the whig factions | whioh there as elsewhere, in New York, are prin | cipally intent upon the overthrow and prostration of each other. Bio re Votes* The Harrisburg Union thinks that if the pre sent Legislature oontinuo their session any great length of time, our excellent Executive will have to employ a ready writer, to sit constantly'at his elbow inditing veto messages, as ho wiUnever be able to write them all himself. The last bill wo observe that be has vetoed is one authorizing tho citizeua of Lewisburg to sell out her streets in toxen lots , and we presume to require the citi zens to travel ora tho tops of the houses. Well this is a singular movement in a county where towns are so small and land so plenty. Death of the Queen or Madagascar.— Tho Queen of Madagascar died in November last, aN ter the defeat and degradation of the flower of her army, in a contest with a belligerent chief. By this event, as by that of the late King of Siam, an exclusive and obstructive policy is abo lished, and under a liboral successor tbore is every prospeot of a fertile country being thrown open to our trade. The advancement of Mada gascar, now seemingly unchecked, will influence not only the Mauritius and Natal, but will be a means of creating trade on the African cast coast, so long lost right of by tho commercial world. The Old TinnTsEN.—The Legislature of Mas sachusetts has just passed a resolution ordering the election of two delegates to a Convention in Philadelphia, July 4, 1852, to consider the pro position of ereoting monuments in Independence Square. The Legislature of New Jersey, now in session, as also that bf Virginia, should at once take up the matter, and bo prepared to meet in Convention. Our friends in these States must arge this patriotic work, and see that dele gates are elected. Tots United States and France. —The Nation al Intelligencer learns from on offioial source, that nothing has 1 occurred to disturb the harmo ny existing between the United Btatesand Prance. The government of the United States has, ac cording to its uniform usage in such cases, re cognized the existing authorities of France os the national government of the ooantry. Inter national duty and respect alike demanded this, and this government could do no less.

Tho apportionment bill being tho sp.eoial order of the day, was taken up, and amendments to different districts were offered by members, upon which tho yeas and nays were called every few moments. r Mr. James, of Warren, moved to refer the bill to a select committee of five, and supported his motion in a few remarks. Mr. Bonham op posed the reference. Messrs. Kelso and Ma deira favored tho reference. Mr. Lilly moved to amend by adding that the committee be required to report to-morrow morning, and that their report be spe cial order of the day every day until disposed of. On the question, will the House agree to tho amendment, it was decided in the negative. Mr. Hill moved to amend by making the’com mittee Beven. This was also voted down. The question then occurred on the original motion, made by Mr. James, upon which the yeas and nays were colled, and resulted os follows —yens, 31; nays, 60; so it was not agreed to, and the House proceeded to consider the bill.

Caiifobhia Fabmtho. —From a little work written .by John J. Worth, of California, whose statements are deemed reliable, jnst published, we extract the following in relation to the pro. duotion of tho Boil. Mr. John Homer, a respectable farmer, testi fies as follows: My younger brother arrived here in January, 1850. We managed to feaco in 400 acres, and farm 160 principally in potatoes. Our crop yielded as follows: Potatoes, 1,700,000 lbs. Pumpkins, 80,000 lbs. Onions, 40,000 “ Barley, 20,000 “ Tomatoes, 40,000 “ Wheat, 40,000 ' “ Beets, 0,000 “ Chickens', 100 Cabbages, 60,000 “ Eggs, 600 dot. In 1861, he fenced in 1,300 and farmed 800.— His crop of potatoes this year is set down at 120,000 bushels, besides a large quantity] of other vegetables. The farm of Mr. Horner is near the Mission of San Jose, Santa Clara oounty. Mr. Worth says: The soil throughout these va rious regions is either sandy or a Chocolate loam, extremely easy of tillage and .without exception so far as it has been cultivated—productive to an extraordinary degree. fry Free Laud meeting,—A Pqblic Meetlngor citizens favorable to the freedom of the PUBLIC DO MAIN' to actual settlers, and opposed to the numerous -hind Monopoly Sebemes now before Congress, Will be bold THIS EVENING, (MONDAY) at T o’clock, tn UNION HALL, earner of Fifth arid Smtthneld street- Citizens of all parties and occupations anvreqaested to attend.
