American civilization over .the heretofore | unsettled or deserted'regionß oftbia conti nent, as the present. Every item of the nows ,of; the day seems to point in this direction, ( and the efforts now being mado to direct tho j course-of-empire westward are so powerful, j' that we, cannot bnt bblievo that they will lead , to the most extraordinary results. What is :; our army doing 7 It is.chasing down tho red man of the forest through his last haunts. It is driving-him from tho fastnesses which, Within a few year's, had never been trodden by the foot of the white man; it is teaching sad and bloody, but necessary, lessons of the power of-this Government, to the monarebs of-the forest, on the outskirts of Texas, in tho wilds of Oregon, in the. wildernesses of Wash ington Territory, thronghont Utah, and wherever.ho dares show n hostile front to the paio faces ; ob it Is off thousands of miles, among the Mormons; in a region'which but a few years since was almost entirely unex plored. -Wagon roads are being constructed over the whole route to onr .Western States. One ovenßkt mail route has been, repeatedly .travelled, and three .more have been settled upon; and all these are but precursors of the practical realisation of the great project with which the minds of many of .onr statesmen, and those of many of the aotlve, .enterprising spirits oi the country are' filled—the construction of at least one, and perhaps Several great Pacific railroads. Further south, a new route vih Tehuantepec has Jost boen opened to California, by which the trip can be made from New Orleans to San Francisco in twelve days. And while the red man is thus being swept away as so much brushwood from . the . onward maioh' of pro egress, or compelled to how his haughty nature in- strict obedience, and .while'these routes.of communication, which- will all form great chains of civilisation are being established, that tempting lure; mineral wealth, is inviting and urging men to fill up our wild regions. The Pike’s Peak and the South Platte gold mines will certainly attract an immense crowd of miners during the coming year. Notwith standing the - unfavorable news from Frazer river, we should not bo at all astonished if the reports of gold deposits in Washington Terri tory, which is immediately sonth oi it, should be verified; and greatly accelerate the settle ment of that region. Already the silver : mines of Arizona have attracted around them 1 many energetic men. Thousands of longing eyes, too, ara cast upon Sonora, and in the natural coarse of things tho dsy cannot ho far distant when it will be peopled by our,citizens and beoome the property of onr Govern ment.

In Nicaragua have been chocked, and very properly•- too', for he has only brought dißgraee upon., our national character, and misery . upon , his misguided followers and the people whose territory hb wishes to in. vade. Bat the condition of Mexico is full of significance. The discordant factions of the ' nation are doing their best to rend it into pieces, and the better portion of its own citi zens, as well as the civilized world, implore ns to take possession of tho oountry, as tho only means of , bringing order ont of chaos and a stable Government ont of anarchy. It will thus.be seen that, almost unconsciously to our selves, wo are at this moment practically making more rapid and notable atrides toward the extension of onr civilization than at any - former period of onr history. G.oldqn oppor tunities are opening up. before na; and if onr ' statesmen.aro eqrial to the responsibilitlea of their position, this period may he made one of the most memprablo.and glorious in the history of theßepnblio. Real Estate in New York. We published, on the 13th ult-, an article showing the difference.between tho prices of real estate in this city and New York, as shown by the recently reported sales in the New York Timti. Among the sales we then referred to was the following: "r Ootober 28th (we quote from report,) ten lots eo, Fifth avenne,, between tSightv-elghth end EightV.nlnth atreets, (over five mllea.from the City Hall and two miles above-aU-lmorevements,) at a considerable advance on 830,000, tho prloe at wbioh it was lately Bold, We presume that the property Cannot now be bought for much less tbau $40,000 (It has since been add at *35.000 )' Now at *36 000 the lota would aver age $4,600 eaob, nr $72,000 por aore.” As an evidence, of the continued extraordi nary advance of vacant ground i n that city, and what is doing thefo in the way of real estate Investments, we give below an account of) the sale of the same property, as reportod In-tbe New York Times of Monday, the 20th utt., which shows that the lots have again been sold at an average-of $6,000 each, or at the rato of $BO,OOO per acre although they are, more than five miles from the City Hall, and two miles above all improvements: !' Mr. Ludlow reports the sole of the ton lots heretofore noticed on Fifth avenue, between Eighty-eighth and Eighty-ninth streets, being eight on the avenne and one on oaeh stroet in tho rear, for the snm of $5O 000. These lots wero bought by Albert Horn, last August, of Peter Mor ris for $30,000; resold by him last month to Almon W. Griswold. Esq., for $35 000; now resold by him to 800. W. Douglass for $50,000.” ' Herring’s “ Village Blacksmith.” There is now on view, at the store of Mr. E. H. Hnnt, northwest oorber of Ohestnnt and Fifth streets, one of the finest English paintings ever ex hibited In this oity. This is “ TlWVillage Black smith,” by J. F. Herring, who, as an animal painter, has a place next to Edwin Landseer, and in the same rank with Bichard Ansdoll. For many years, Mr. Herring has been at tbe head of his profession, chiefly distinguishing himsolf as painter of the winners of Jho St. Leger and the Derby. Latterly, he has got far beyond this, as a variety of fine snbjeot-pictnres from his skilful hand amply attest. Many of these have been en graved, and are well known in this country. Hlb latest and best work,. " The Blacksmith,” en graved by George Patterson, an Eogtish artist of .repute, who died a few hours after he had finished it, has been pnrohased, for $6,000, by the Cosmopolitan Art Association, and will form one of the, prizes at their oiisuing dlstribntion next month, Mr. Hunt, who is tho Society's Honorary Secretary hers, assures us that the current year will end on" January, 1, 1850, that the subscrip tion is $3, and that, besides ohanoes of winning various valuable prises, each subscriber will re ceive the illustrated Cosmopolitan Art Journal (a monthly periodical of groat merit), with an impression from Patterson’s engraving of "The Village Blaoksmith',” whioh is a companion to the well-known “ English Homestead” and “Eng lish Farm Yard,” also by Mr. Herring. Specimens of this fine engraving, plain and co lored, bang In Mr. Hunt’sstore, side by side with the original painting, and their exactness Is tbns tested by strict comparison. We know’that the engraving is richly worth $lO. The piotnre tells its own story. The blacksmith is Bboeing the horse, bis wife and dog standing by ’—a fine dog and a bonnie lassie of a wife, who brings in his dinner, and whoso advent ho greets with a smilo. Man and wife are portraits—tho smith being Hicks, the Lanooshire field-preacher. The horse is a portrait also, representing the fine animal presented to Mr. Herring by Queen Victo ria. The face of the horso is remarkably expres sive. As for the greyhound—go to Mr. Kant’s andjee him. Go to the extreme right, and you see his elongated extent; pass gradually round to the left, and see bow wonderfully be is fore shortened. The ooloriDg is equal to tho drawing. We ore glad to say that Mr. Herring, albeit born in England, Is tbe son of American parents. We hope that the picture may bo won In this country. Meanwhile, It may be seen, free, of admission oost, at Mr. Hunt’s, for a few days longer.

It seems to be generally oonceded that Mexican and Central Amerloan affairs will oomm&nd a large share of attention, bat th&t the President will be rather disposed to submit a statement of the eondltlon of thoeo couatrioa and oar relations with them, and to Bsk for advice, money, and power to act in any contingencies that may arise, than to oommit himself to any definite policy. I fear that a oold shoulder will he turned upon the great but languishing interests of Pennsyl vania. Although Mr. Buobanan Is understood to have repeatedly stated his anxiety to prove his eentimied attachment to the doctrines which he warmly espoused in former days, I shall be very agreeably disappointed if he reaffirms them now, although this is one of the most propliioas mo menta for enforcing them that oould have been, presented. The thunder of half-a-dozen fire eaters inspires so much terror in his soul, that be would rather incur tho 111-wIU of hun dreds of thousands of the people of his own State than their oensure. He is brave only when he executes their behests of proscription, and he is brave then in the same way that those soldiers are who know that if they were to attempt to run from an enemy, they would be shot down at onoe by their own officers. The South has two Interests whioh demand the proteotlon of the Government, the slave Interest and tho sugar Interest. For tho promotion •of the- slave interest long columns of Presidential pmesnges oan be written, the whole nation be plunged into repeated convulsions, and new theories invented as rapidly as the slightest demand for them is created. For the protection of the sugar interest ah enormous tax is annually levied upon the oonsumers of that article; and but little is said upon tho subjeot. Ido not particu larly object to all this, and only refer to-it here on aooount of the comparative coldness whloh is mani fested to all appeals for protection to the great In terests of your State. The news of the suooesaof Gon. W. H. Eelm, the volunteer oandldate for Congress in the Berks distriot, has pub Mr. Baohanan in a worse humor than ever. Two Administration defeats in Old Berks, after the immortal Jehu had been allowed a wide range of patronage to provide for his pro teges, after the people of that rebellious distriot had an opportunity of expressing their gr&titndo for the honor done them in fjhe selection of their great man as Minister to Austria, and after his own law partner, Mr. Wanner, had been seleoted the “ re gular” oandldato to suooeed him, exhibit the ingratitude of Bepublios in so terrible an aspect that I doubt whether our venerable President ean see a safe refuge for the country in anything short of that “ military despotism” whloh he hasde olared will be oertain to be established if the praotice of using money to inffuenee elections is not discontinued. What a pity it is that his edu cation has been exclusively olvil and legal, and tbpt he had not graduated at West Point! for if this defeot had been remedied tho oountry would have been oertain of always having, so long as he lived, a firat-rato ruler of the kind indicated, op hand whenever its necessities required one. In France the press is fettered— terribly. But in Amorioa it is free—very free—particularly at • Washington, the oitadel of our national The Union , the other day, published one of the best things it has contained for a long tlmor-a late speech of Senator pougl&s. Certainly there was no great crime in a free press in a free oountry 1 doing a thing of this kind. But our rulers thought otherwise, aud as through defect in onr laws, , (whioh, perhaps, the President may yet have re- medied before his term expires), the offending journalist oould not be thrown into prison, the editor of the Union (Mr. Guliok) who had au thorised the insertion of the speech has been sum marily discharged.

It Is‘said by leading Southern polltloianß that the way Gore OaFeley pulled wool over oar aged President’s eyes is enough to make wiser men than they mad. Sir William is now at Sxn Juan, and by this time, without doubt, has his treaty in tho process of ratification This faot vexes the Southern members, and they are not in tho best humor for giving the Administration a hearty support. Matt. Ward, tho new Senator from Texas, ar rived here a day or two slnco, and from his ante cedents he attracted a good deal of attention. He has a fine bearing, and, it is said, is an able debater, and will represent Texas well in the Sen ate. r But it is hard to improvo upon old Sam Houston. He is a general favorite here among men nnd women. As Moxieo now wins the atten tion of the whole oountry, Mr. Houston will, the ooming winter, press upon tho Senate his plan for a protectorate over filoxioo. A great class of peo ple baek him in the Idea, and among them a body of woaltby English creditors. In a day or two wo shall see what the President has to say upon the subjeot. I understand that Mr. Buobanan is not a little worn by his troubles, among whloh, not least is the faot that three-fourths of his subordinates are seoretly bis enemies, or, if not his enemies, Dou glas’ friends.

Suoh was the oourse pursued by the oity of New York with regard to their park; and as the ex pense of laying out any suoh ornamental work de pends in a .great measure on tho topographical features of the land, It is evidently of the greatest importance that correot information be afforded. A Civil Engineer. Shipwreck and Suffering. fProm the Boston Traveller, 80th.] The sohooner M. F. Webb, ot Brunswick, bound for Hartford with a load of coal, during the storm of Sunday Dight last dragged her anohor and struck on a reef of rooks off Guilford, Conn., whore the waves broke more than half-mast high, making a complete breaoh ovor her. Tho persons on board, oonsiating of tbe oaptaio, three men, tbo oaptain’s wife and daughter, a little girl three yoars of age, took rofugo in tbe rigging, one of the seamen taking oharge of the little girl, while the captain assisted his wife.

They wero all neurly chilled through; the Incessant jerking of the ves sel threatening to pitch them into the m&ddenod feea beneath them. At thiß time, the man hold ing the girl, worn out with tho great exertion he was obliged to make, could do no more, and a wave striking the doomed vessel, the little girl dropped from bis arms and fell on tho deok and w&b probably instantly killed, as tbo angry sea washed the little body back and forth between the railiegs of the deok in tho sight of its agonized parents, aid was fio&lly carried te tho boiling sea beyond. During all this time, the keeper of the light house at Faulkner’s Island had been watching them, and at last he resolved to resoue thorn, or perish In the attempt.

CLEVELAND'S INTRODUCTORY LECTURE Among the results of what has been termed “ The Woman's Rights Movement,” the Impetus it has given to oertain branches of female educa tion is certainly commendable. The want of fe male praotilionerf, in at least some of the depart mentsof medical eoienoe, has long been felt, and the flattering success whioh baa attended tho | medical schools now established in this oity and Boston, in fitting females for the high and honora ble aaiiing of practising medicine, has, we think, fully demonstrated that there aro no good rea sons, on the ground of montal or moral superiori ty, why the disoiples of Esonlaplus should be re- Striated to the sterner sex. We nre warranted in szylng that in this community the antagonisms of prejudioe, and sober opposition of honorable con servatism against femalo M. D has largely been overcome, and that the popular mind is appre- ' heading tho need of onlightoned, Intelligent fe- . male physicians. Tnarooont visit to Boston tho writor had the , g«od fortune of meeting the physlolan and author, J Miss Harriet K. Hunt, and a more finished medioal ; scholar, and enlightened philanthropist, wo do not { bellovo honors her profession. This lady has ap* j patently so thoroughly overoome tho weakness of ; her sex, that we feel It to be no unsafe presump tion to state that shehas boon a practising physi cian for more than twenty yoars. Her sucoess has been marvellous, often baffling the understanding of her contemporaries of a tnoro straightened aobool than she adheres to. It may not be Improper to ' remark here, that the seoret of her sucoess in re* I markable cases lies in her extraordinary diognostio ' powers. Her skill as a pathologist Is measurably 1 owing to the inventory she takes—so to speak—of , the idiosyncrasies, temperamental condition, age, spiritual state, and other considerations of her patient, for whioh it must be admitted the more Impressible and sympathetic nature of woman i* better qualified than that of man. The Female Medto.il Oollego of Pennsylvania, looated at No. 627 Aroh streot, commenced its onrrent session on the 19th of October, at which time the Introductory leoturo on bohalf of tie faculty, to the oioss, wa9 delivered by Mrs. E. H. Cleveland, M. D., who holds the professorship of anatomy and histology in the institution. This leoturo, of whioh the following Is a condensation, -ia alike oreditable to its author and the cause for which it speaks: “As a profession, the hearings of our cause upnn woman may not be disregarded. ‘ The highest boon of existenoe,’ * the grand pabulum of tbe human soul.’is useful, satisfying ocoupatlon. ‘ Something attempted, something done,’ must graco tho pago of each day’s history, if one would maintain tt oheerfal. joyous life, nnd the health and happiness so often sought elsewhere in vain; and our enterprise comes alike with hopes and promises of blessing, to tho daughter of luxury over-burdened with timO'Serving, and longing for ’ some.noble work, and the daughter of penury (\nd want compelled to'labor at uncongenial and profit* , lessmnp'oyments, and exposed to the temp’a'i ms > o£ vice and crime; and truly royal hoarts will e r er rise up in honor of a movement that promises to oxteoa the area of woman’s usefulness and relievo her alike fr6m the tedium of * nothing to do,* with its trains of gossips and discontents and diseases, and from the pains and sorrows and heart-aohings of unrequited toil. “As a question of rights we reoogniso the foot that they have their foundation in duties and that ao* oiety, in its growing qivilisfflion npd its advanoing ißtprests, may, and often does, demand of woman enlarged activities—that she stop asido from the . beaten traok, and devote herself to the perform . anoo of untried labors. “As an educational movement, our enterprise hss few equals. Tho great faot that tho civilization Snd Refinement of any community are indicated by the advance, morally and intellectually, of its women, Is an admitted one, and has been so long reoo£nDed and so fully*disoussed. that the expres sion and even tho thought have beoome well-nigh hdeknied.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAI. The Money Market# • Philadelphia, Dec 1,1856, The business of the Stock Board to-day was below the average In amount with little variation In prices. The fancy stocks continue depressed, and to-day’s sales show a falling eff of if in the prico of Reading Railroad atook, in the face of many opinions that there was al most a certainty of its Improving. Its fiscal year ter minated on the last day of November, and the total tonnage of the year wa51,542 591 tons against 1,T09 : 551 tons in 1857, a falling off of 165,960 tens, The fiscal year of tbe Leblgh Valley Railroad Com pany also ended on Tuesday} and tbe total tonnage for the year was 471,000 tons—an increase over 1867 ef about 53,000 tons. Oaupqna forwarded to California by the steamer of December sth. from New York, will reach there In time for collection, and tho remittance of the proceeds by the return m*il of January 6th. The New York pa pers also represent the necessity of prompt aotlon on the part of the holders of California State debt not yet con verted into the new seven per cent bonds. It seems that a olerioal error of $200,000 or more in the amount of the ac’nal debt has had the effect of leaving abont that amount unprovided for under the new law, bat it is nevertheless important that the holders of the old evidences cf debt should forward their claims promptly, and receive the benefit of the new arrange ment that will probably be made this winter for their settlement. The Lehigh Caoal tonnage for last wftk was 26 211 ton", against 19,517 in the corresponding week of 1667, a gain of 0,694 tons.
