That it is possible for a Union army to abandon its base of supplies, to give up its communications, and, entirely self-depend ent, to move unopposed into the heart of the enemy's country, is alone proof that the rebellion is indeed the hollow shell which General GRANT declared it. Bum- MAN is now beyond the help of the Government, and so far from the loyal border that we hear of the progress of his march only by the vague reports of rebel journals. We guess from the alarm of the foe the success of his movement, and, for the first time in the war, get all our news of the great Union army by the way of Rich mon d, If Ave may judge by the fluttering of the doves, the eagle is far into the 'cote. No rumor of failure to SHERMAN deserves the slightest credit.' The rebel report which left him within eighteen miles of Macon was a virtual assurance of his per fect safety. And it may be added that the ad vance into Georgia would never have been ordered if it had. involved any risk. But SARRMTN will find no army on his march to Augusta, an.d all the impediments to his progress the rebels may interpose will only serve to show the weakness of their forces. Bold as the advance may be, it Is not so 'bold as it seems. It is the natural result of the capture of Atlanta and the siege of Richmond. The central gates o r f t ale renfreli r that triter find , . 0 ."`"! . - e - p - assage. For the present we must be content to lose sight of SHERMAN in the darkness of the rebellion ; it will not be many days before the splen did rays of his victories 'will disperse the clouds that now surround him. Strength from Emtgration. We have one grand and singular element of greatness which no other country in the world can be said to possess. This ele ment is constantly supplying us with new strength—making up, as it were, for the waste of population, and infusing fresh blood into our system. Its possession places us very greatly at advantage over the " so-called Southern Confederation." In the South, the great depletion caused by the war has sensibly diminished the population, but with us there has been, and more particularly since the rebellion commenced, an immense and even aug menting accession of numerical strength by the process of Emigration. Particular - proofs of this are contained in an article entitled "Emigration as influenced by the War," in the last number of Dr. SEAus' National Quarterly Review, a periodical of great ability, high character, and large cir culation. We can scarcely be mistaken in attributing this article to the pen of. Dr. BEAm "himself. One result of the Know-Nothing system, which was very strong some ten years ago, and was got up by the most thoughtless and least intelligent of the community, be sides being originated by the immediate children of foreigners, was to check emi gration from Ireland. There was religious fanaticism in the Know-Nothing conspi racy, for it was bitterly opposed to the Irish, on the grounds of the religion which most of them professed. "As soon," Dr. SEAM says, " as the Irit found that there would. be no welcome for them in this country, there was a considerable and im mediate falling off in the quarterly and annual number of emigrants coming from Ireland ; and we see from the satne data that as soon as they found again that this feeling had passed away, and that all who could come were wanted to fight for the preservation of the Republic, they began $o come in greater numbers than ever." Thus, the Annual Report of the Commis sioners of Emigration states that the year 1863 was marked by a lame increase of emigration to the port of New York, being more than double that of 1862—namely, KM persons, who were generally in bet ter health and condition also. The number of emigrants who landed in New. York, in 1863, was 156,844, for whom commuta tion was paid or bonds executed—a large increase over the preceding years. Of these emigrants 92,157 were from Ireland, 35,002 from Germany, 18,757 from Zngland, and 10,928 from other countries. " Thus," Dr. Beams says, "we see that nearly three times as many came from. Ireland, during the past year, when they were most needed, as from Germany considerably more than from all other countries, including Germa n. That is, Ireland alone has sent us more emigrants within the past year than all the world besidee. From the same ex tract we see that the increase is composed of a stronger, healthier, and More inde- pendent class than those that usually came Ain time of peace. The arrivals at Boston and. Philadelphia exhibit a similar increase as Compared to former years, together with a similar disproportion in the nationalities of the emigrants, the Irish in each case numbering as much as all others put to gether. And who• will deny, that if the muster rolls of our armies be examined, the Irish will be found equally in the ma jority in the service of the United States, above all other foreigners ? At least nine tenths of the Irish in the land anPmarine forces of the United States are Catholics ; but we ask again, are they the less brave, or the less faithful on this account '" The foolish fiction, not credited by the partisan politicians who circulated it, as a parliamentary weapon, that the United States Government employed agents in Ireland to decoy the young laborers there in order to make soldiers of them, as soon as ever they landed in this country, ought never have been received as even possible by any British statesman. The condition of Ireland explains, of itself, why the find and found a new home e Continent. The depopulation of Ireland is the natural result of utter hopelessness in the mind of the working-class there. The proprietorship of the island has large ly changed hands since the act to facilitate the sale of Encumbered Estates was pass ed, in September, 1848. The ties between landlord and tenant, never very strong there,. (how weld it be, when Abseil- teeism so generally prevailed ?) became at- tenuated==and even broken under the new sysfem, which uprooted "the ould stock," as the original landed proprietors were called, and this, following close on the fa mine and fearful sickness of 1846-7, was a leading inducement for impoverished mul titudes to come to a land where honest in dustry could readily win good employment at high wages, where their religion was freely tolerated, their children were edu cated at the public, expense, and where they might obtain citizenship, as full and free as if they had been born here. The increase of population in this coun try is pqculiar to the Free States. Emi grants arrive in large numbers at New York, Philadelphia, and Boston, but"who has heard of their landing at Richmond, Charleston ' Savannah, Mobile, or New Orleans The Free States, constantly re cruited from foreign countries, are perpetu ally recuperating, but the South does not possess this mode of renewing its strength. Emigration is that element of greatness which appears peculiar to that portion of this country in which. Slavery does not txist. The South has no such means—in fact, has no means whatever-L-of thus sup plying the deficiency in its population caused by the war. The number of emi grants for whom commutation money was paid or bonds executed, at New York, in the last seven years (1857-1883) is 784,825, and it, may be doubted whether as many as the odd hundreds of this total have ar rived'inthe whole of the South within the nameperiod. The absolute insanity of the Rebellion is evidenced by the fact that every day thins the population of the South, without there being any accession of popu lation lation from without to replace the dead. American Art. It has been remarked that times of war are unpropitious to art ; but this is not al together the case with our own. Perhaps it is because American art has now attained that period of growing youth and destiny when the conditions which check older communities only try its strength and make it grow. Our own war, however, is different from others, because in a strife of the widest magnitude it leaves the peo ple not only free, but prosperous. The arts are sought as a refuge from the.cares . of war, and music and the drama take their full share of success. The tine arts, always more neglected, becauSe not so-self advertising, still keep due on. The time is one of celebration—the nation is making a new history by war, and seems to be liv ing altogether in public. Art, too,-comes out of its retirement, and performs its part in the celebration. Portraits of the Gene- rals and of the President and his Cabinet, scenes of the war, statuettes and groupings from army-life, patriotic ideals of sculp ture, show us from time to time that art is also making its raised and illuminated his tory. Ambition in war is said to devour other ambitions; but art still holds itself sacred, and is only kindling new ardor from the general experience of fame. We are making history ; perhaps in this genesis of the new Republic we are also making art. America has not yet produced a painter or sculptor great enough to hold equal rank with our very best minds in literature; but, since the date of books, literature of necessity precedes fine art in use and de mand. The latter, of course, grows more slowly, more independently. It takes time for-Ipfsbla-tankPui koG n W e had old-world books to feed our young litera7 ture ;. but few traditions of art, no ancient masters, no treasure-houses of painting and sculpture, and at first no art-community to teach and encourage the American idea. Like Romtmos, who founded Rome, Ame rican art was not originally the nursling of any parent, but a foundling in the wilder nese, suckled by a wolf. Yet our litera ture and art have nevertheless grown to some pride. The pen has begun to understand its office 'toward the brush, and when they are well acquainted we shall, no doubt, have better results from both. From the time when. BEaseatru WEST, and, after him, CHARLES LESLIE, left Pennsylvania to acquire fame in British art, and siktimong the RoYal Academicians, there has been a regular exodus of artists from the New World to the Old. Many go there simply for pilgrimage, but others, we hear, have become Romans, Parisians, Londoners, Viennese, Bavarians. Few born Americans, however, . can itay long away from their country, while hundreds of foreign artists come to make their home with us, impressed with the feeling that there is a new idea to be discovered in the New World, or, at all events, that there is a clear field' and a fresh atmosphere. There are so many wonders in America that art should certainly have a share in them. We are without a Louvre or Luxembourg, and have to make a gallery of our own—this is true; but, in the meanwhile, American scenery is in itself a newer and more inte resting gallery to imaginative and observant explorers of art than the boasted studies of the Old World. Instead of feeding upon ancient sentiment, BIERSTADT and CHURCH ! set up their easels among the mountains; and at trip on the coast, a winter's day in the suburbs, a passage in Shakspeare,, or the " Ancient Mariner," -are sufficient for a more imaginative genius like HAMILTON. Our best sculptors cannot do better than go to Rome ; but our genius in painting must remain where it is, for we are now almost able to instruct other art, because we can tell it something new—if not from inven tion, at least from our grander portion of the book of nature. As yet, we find it hard to imagine a standard of value and . exchange between our literatUre and fine art—n sign _that balance and re-. ciprocity are not yet established, and that art and literature have yet ttrmake their joint community. None WhO read. books, and occasionally look at pictures, know where to place the painter and sculp tor in the general relation. They are, in fact, admired apart; and few understand how much to admire them. There is no impartial tribunal to give equable praise to the poet and the painter. In common esti mation, the latter falls often far below the actor. All genius is peer ; but poets and actors are famous,' while many of our best artists arounknown. Painters and sculp tors must work the hardest and endure the most for their fame, and, therefore, deserve all the more when the grand instalment is to be made. But why should we not be able to regard fine landscapes with the same favor paid to the poems of - LorroyELLOw and BuTlarr ? Our painters have some times made better poems than our poets— our sculptors finer epics. We do not know in what relation of mind our own familiar citizen, HAMILTON, stands towards Pon, or care to find out that Pownns"-cGreek gave" exceeds by its marble 4eight hun dreds of books, and yet.may not be equal to one poem of EMERSON or Pon. One idea exists, the test and- solvent of painting, sculpture, music, and literature. It is not necessary that we should all possess this idea, but appreciation of art demands that we should have its feeling. Coming down to the more practical view - of American art, its present expansion is encouraging. The numberof -the earlier distinguished artists is easily counted. Gm- BERT - STUART, not' altogether excelled in portrait painting by any successor ; Col. TRUMBULL, who helped to make as well as to paint the history of the Revolution ; Joan SINGLETON COPLEY (the father of Lord LYNDHURST) ; WEST and LESLIE, always patriots in feeling towards Ameri ca, but Englishmen in their art—these were some of our first painters, most of whom were simply remains of British art, rather than founders of anything new. After these came WASHINGTON ALLSTON, a poet and painter worthy of the friendship of COLE : I on, and many of the best men of his • Victoria, George Frederick Cooke, an generations of eminent worthies, a true father of art, and still the greatest, as the oldest of our portrait paintev ; VANDER- Lyn and Iratkx, the eminent New York artists ; REmnianntj'EAlo, perhaps more celebrated for his associatTen with WAsII INGTON than any great success in art; Um:LAS Brum; predecessor of HAMILTON in marine painting ; and we should not forget, even if we forget others, our fellow citizen, Joan NEAGLE, the painter of " Pat Lyon" and Henry Clay, whose vigorous heads would have won reputation with the best of his cotemporaries in Ping land. To-day American art has taken another youth, and one more its own ; we have a greater variety of topics and of artists, and of course a greater scope and larger circles of art. The Academy of Philadelphia gives us such individual ar tists as RomEntura, and SIIO6BRLE inhisto rical painting, and lluarrirosr in marine, not excelled in their specialties, and the latter, perhaps, the most imagina tive painter in America. .NEAGLIC has not survived his fame ; and Tgotas SULLY, (nOW almost an octogenarian,) still paints his charming portraits of wo men, instinct with the early blush of his successful genius. No artist in America so well deserves the affectionate,respect, and, indeed, the public tribute of . his brother artists, to gentle character, cherished love of art, and venerable years. Many of our artists have, within a few years, settled in Boston and New York, but we have still left a flourishing school of young painters, headed by the MonAws and W. T. Ricus - ans, among the most promis ing marine and landscape painters of -the country. New York has now almost a land scape school of its own, numbering such artists as CHURCH and BIBREITADT, GIGI NOVX, GTHFORD., JERVIS McENTER, SRN- RossrrEn—a colleen= of whose works has -just been attracting notice 111 one of the German cities. With ELLIOTT and HUNTINGDON,.' New York also ranks high in portrait-painting. lattprza ' and Largo are probably its best-known histori cal painters. Few of these - gentlemen are to .the manor born, but have come from all quarters of the country to seek their art fortunes at the flood. FELIX DASLEY, another cosmopolitan in New York, but, we believe, a native of this city, is equally known in England and America as one of the beat designers in the world. Nothing of the kind has excelled his illustrations of Cooisxn and DICKENS, and his sketches of the war lately on exhibition at the Art Gallery of the Sanitary Fair. For sculpture Boston bears off the palm. POWERS and his " Greek Slave ;" the late Thomas CRAWFORD, sculptor of " Washington, " and PAUL Aims, well known as an art writer and sculptor of " The Pearl Diver; W. W. STORY, poet of " Roba di Roma , ".and sculptor of "Cleopatra;" Miss RRRIET HOMER, with her , " Zenobia" and ""Sleeping Faun ;" Miss STEBBINS, Miss WHITNEY, (sculptor of "Africa,") Txtortres BALL, LARKIN . MEAD, of Vermont—these artists, , mostly dwellers in Rome, have given pre-emi nence to the statuesque mood and genius of New England. New York has pro duce,d sculptors as popular as PALMER, of the " Palmer Marbles," well known both here and in Europe ; ROGERS, the moulder of a much-admired series of statuettes and small war groups ; Le.trzer THOMPSON, HENRY Rum BROWN, &c. Philadelphia has some pride in the memory of young BAarrnoLoisrs-w, whose latest work, "Eve," attracted so much attention, and it contains a number of other promising sculptors. The West also brings us news of art. THOMAS BUCHANAN READ, the poet-painter, from this city, has made a innao,_among....,W'lllage - drwe . nave heard, on the statue of Dotrames, has finished one of " Minnehaha." SEIBERT, of the same City, is reported to have tri umphed in a " Judith'"of no mean merit, and there also, REAtY, the well-known portrait painter, is enjoying rapid good for tune. Armin:inns, late of Chicago, but at present in this city, won reputation as the painter, of General GRANT, and has just finished a portrait of General BUTLER for his native city. Art in the West is perse vering. The general art of the country will no doubt have much to gain after the lapse of the war, when the tide now rushing on to war flows back:into peaceful channels. We doubt that war has done our art any mate rial injury, while, in some respects, it has served only, to bring it into popular notice. Music, the drama, awl the fine arts have enjoyed reasonable success, and, after our second flood of history, will be more produc tive of originality. Philadelphia—the home of BROCKDEN BROWN, if not the true home of Pon ; of BUILT, NEAGLE, and others as good in art ; of actors like FORREST, MUR DOCH, WARREN, and JEFFERSON . ; of a composer as promising as FRY, and of well known litterateurs who have sometimes sought reward and incentive from other communities—should in time become such another literary and art centre as Boston. This is, above all others,' the • city of resi dence, and it should also become the ,city of art and of literature. Art should not neglect its opportunities for advertisement and popularity. Evdn if humbug is at first favored, the general knowledge will be in creased, and merit will be, upon the whole, the gainer. YESTERDAY the nation gave thanks ; not as a mere form, but in earnest, for, never since the terrible evil of the war fell upon it, bad it such reason for gratitude and joy. We believe that the greatest of our perils are past, and the gloom and doubt of other days makes more beautiful the sunshine -of this. Yesterday, America would have been atheistical and unnatural had she not given thanks to God for the wondrous blessings he has bestowed even in the midst of her mighty trials. - _ "Damp," the sensational correspondent of the World, recently reported from rebel pources some terrible but undefinable dis aster to SECEIVISIAN. This, no doubt, refers to'the capture' of the Georgia Legislature. If it gives him half the trouble it gave the State, his campaign is sure to be imfortu nate. The Late Florida Sel=re—official cord respondence. When the pirate Florida first came into the harbor of Bahia, and anchored there, our causal stationed in the city protested to the President of the province against allowing her to remain. We find the correepondence in the World. He stated' that the vessel was not commissioned by any recog nized Government, and for that reason she should receive no aid or assistance of any kind from the Brazilian Government. The President, Gomez, sent him in return a sharp and crusty reply, stating that his Government had recognized the rebel Go vernment as a belligerent, and that the orew of the Florida,ln that light, were entitled to all the assist ant:* required by humanity. According to instrue. tins from the Bmpe - for,he would allow the vessel to remain Ouch a length of time only sa could be consi dered indispensable. The consul nad also referred to a violation of the sovereignty of Brazil by the Florida, in capturing end destroying vessels be longing to the United States, within the territorial waters of Brazil, near the island of Fernando la Noronha in April, 1868, and asked that the pirate and her crew be detained to answer far such a fia, grant violation of Brazilian sovereignty. To this• the President replied that it waS his duty to observe that even if it were fully establish% ed that the Florida had previously violated neutrality, such a proceeding would -scarcely authorize him to refuse her permission to en ter the ports of the empire, and could never war• rant him to commit the acts required by the consul, which would be equivalent to a hostile rup ture, without the intervention of the Supreme Go vernment of the State, which was alone competent to authorize such a rupture. This correspondence was begun and oonoluded on October 5. But on the night :of Ootober 6 the capture took place, and on Ootober-7 the President wrote our consul the follow ing indignant note of protest and immediately sus pended relations with him : PALAOF.

To this end, each brigade com mander will organize a good awl sat:holed foraging party, under the command of one or mere discreet afters, who will gather near the route trailed oorn or forage of any kind, meat of any kind, vegetables, corn meal, or whatever is needed by the command, .aiming at all times to keep In the wagon trains at least ten days' provisions for the command and three days , forage. Soldiers must not enter the dwellings of the inhabitants or commit any trespass. During the halt or a camp-they may be permitted to gather tur nips, potatoes, and other vegetables, and drive _in stook in front of their camps. To regular foraging parties must be entrusted the gathering of provi sions and forage at any distance from the road tra velled. V.

This battalion should follow the advance guard, should repair „roads and double them if possibly, so that the co lumns will not be delayed after reaching bad places. Also, army commanders should strfdy the habit of giving the artillery and wagons the road, and march ing their troops on one side; and also instruot their troops to assist wagons at steep bills or bad crossings of streams.

When the troops leave camp on the march about to commence they will carry irr haveriack two days' rations salt meat, two davit bard bread, ten days' coffee and salt, and five days' sugar. Each infantry soldier will carry sixty rounds of ammu nition on his person. Every effort should be made by officers and men-to save rations and ammuni tion ; not a round of ammunition should be lost or unnecessarily expended. It is expected' that the Command will be supplied with subsistence and forage mainly from the country. All foraging will be done by parties detailed for'the purpose by bri gade commanders ' under such rules as may be pre scribed by brigade. and division commanders. Lib lacing. marauding, and every act of cruelty or abuse of ,citizens will be severely punished. Each brigade com mander will have a strong rear guard on every March, and will order the arrest of all stragglers. The danger of straggling on this march should be impressed upon the mind of every officer and man of the command. Not only the reputation of the corps, but the personal safety of•every man will be dependent, in a great measure, upon the rigid en forcement of discipline, and the care taken of the rations and ammunition.

Evans, a olvil engineer residing at New Rochelle, has testified before the ooroner in theinattihr of the late New 77.73 o ra road travelling in America which possess a very general interest. He declares the roalloonstruction of this country very much inferior o that of Europe, and the risks of travelling there , upon consequently greater. The drainage and bal. lasting Is poor, and, for the sake of economy, a poor quality of rail Is often employed. The New Haven Railroad, he testifies, "was originally laid without any chairs, to save sls,ooo—the ends of the ran. resting immediately upon the wood." This was a • "piece of track" upon the Harlem route, "laid seven years ago, which was infamous; pieces of sleepers were put down not thicker than my arm, and so green that they grew after they were put He doeshot remember having seen. any very good "ballasting" in this country, except upon the Penn sylvania Central Road. "The drainage of Ameri can railroads is scandalous," and this is one cause of the frequent rotting of the "sleepers." He in stanced a portion of the New Haven road, where, 'from their extreme decay, he was enabled to kick off pieces from the sleepers, and to draw out one of the spikes—or rather 1111 it out—with hie fingers. Hetraces.the frequent occurrence of railway acci dents In America to the meanness of the-officers, hieh leads them to procure inferior materials for construction, and to employ iecapable or careless men, as well as to the general demand of the public for fast time. These inquiries into the causes of the constantly recurring. tragedies upon many `of oar. lines have stimulated a spirit of investigation, especially in this city. Coroner Money, who has the present inquiry in charge, Is making it as general as"possi ble, and there is very reason for believing that this - expose which he has been instrumental in prom trig will act compulsorily on the managert of:those routes having a terminus at New York, compelling them to see to the safetyof their respective roads, rather than 4RA:sth:icing It in the interest of divi dends. _ TILB BREWBAY FRAUDS.

The Chief Justleeship, In The independent Theodore Tilton coniandes a leader on 1, Three Cardinal Pointe," as follows : Third—the duty of filling the Supreme Benint of the United States with a man who, succeeding Taney, shall revive Marshall. De Tooqueville has drawn a striking, almost an alarming, picture of the poi nda! power of the judiciary in this country, and the immense influence of the Supreme Court. Thomas Jefferson uttered a sorrowful prophecy that the liberties of this nation would probably suf fer more from encroachment by the Supreme Court than from any other cause. Is not our recent na. tional history darkened with the shame of a Chief Justice who tinted back Liberty upon the dial of the world? That court will be called upon before long to deal with the most momentous quee tiona it can ever handle—questions involving' the dearest rights Of millions of human beings, the sa cred honor of the Government, and the entire fu ture of the Republic. If the next Chief Justice of the United States should have either a wrong head or a wrong heart—if he should be another Taney— who could measure the far-reaching extent of such a national calamity? Mr. Lincoln, who will make the appointment, will be President only four years; but the man whom he appoints may be Cater Jag. tics for forty years. if, therefore, in all the land, there is one man who towers above the rest of his Ootnitrymen in fitness for this high nation, in skill •of jurisprudence In judicial aptitude, in native breadth of mind, i n unswerving Integrit y' of charac ter, in unfaltering allegiance to justice and liberty— let that man be appointed. We are far from say ing that there is but one man in this country who is competent to this eminent station, bat we speak the solemn conviction of the whole people when we Say that there is but one man whose appointment will fulfil the general expectation. The moment the shadow of death fell upon that bench, leaving' It empty, all men's eyes were simultaneously tinned to an illustrious Americith citizen, a profound Con stitutionil lawyer, a consummate statesman, a , mas sive•minded thinker, a chief justice by nature and education,'and altogether one of the greatest men on the continent, Salmon P.

Yours, lee., G. GAROALDI.." A Mysterious Bluider In England. On Tuesday afternoon, November Bth, the head_ leesbody of a man was found in the Plaiatow marshes on the Thames, near London, under the following circumstances, as detailed bythe tinder of the body, one of the witnesses, at the investigation: • Richard Harvey, a shipwright's apprentice, amid— On Tuesday afternoon, about half past 1, I was going along the river bank near Plaistow marshes, close to Slivertown, accompanied .by Josiah Owner and some other persons. One of the men belonging to the party sent me among some reeds to drive up the birds for him to shoot at, he having a gun. As I was walk ing through the reeds I noticed the dead body of a man. I was about five yards from the corpse when I fin t saw it. I rani out of Dile reeds and told my companions. The iuody, which was lying on its back, had no head. The right hand was lying on the breast, and the left armwas lying by its aide. It was about fifty y ards from the river wall or bank. There is a broad reed Shore at *this point, and the reeds growing there are about seven feet high. The body was dressed only In a pair of black cloth trousers and Wellington boots. There was a small piece of a white shirt on the left arm of the body, no other portions of the shirt remain ing. The body was without a head, and the muscular portion of the neck right down, to the bone had been eaten away by rats, which swarm among the reeds. Iffy opinion is that a knife and a chopper had been used in severing the head from the trunk. There were several marks where "chops" had been made - in the verte bral One blow had partially divided one of the cep vioals, and another had completely done so. The flesh of the left hand had all been eaten away, and that of,the right hand was partially eaten off. The left shoulder had also been attacked by the rate, as was shown by the muscular fibres. The same was the case with the right arm. Taking into conside ration the coldness of,the weather, and the dry Vice where the body was found, it is quite possible that .the deceased might have been dead four or five days. I examined the chest and abdomen. and could not find any marks of violence. 'The boots were over the ankles of the trouser?, as if he had been walking in the mud. It was the body of a welbfed, muscular' Man. Who committed the crime is not yet exactly known ; but, in the absence of facts, there are many ingenious conjectures. The London Times, of Thurs. day, the 10th, has the tolloWing plausible specula. tione S. It was at first supposed that the murder was et Meted on the spot where the headless body was found, but a 'careful examination of the ground, in stituted towards evening, has disproved this Suppe- Alen. The North Woolwich road, which raw past the Victoria Graving Dock,* parallel to the river lieeeteketn6___The_f a mil of marsh land while!' lies be tw een de me arter era end th e e Tbames is for the greater part 'eovecied . with'rtisnee 7z feet high. A narrow pathway, not more than IS inches in width, leads from the road through the rushes towards the river. Any person walking along this track we aid find on his left hand, about half way through, a still narrower path going towards another part of the river bank, but to get to it he would find It necessary to arose a ditch seven feet wide and three or four feet deep, the bottom being covered with thick mud rather than water. In the -course of the search that was being made this little path, almost wholly obscured by the overhanging reeds, was struck upon and upon the persons coming to the ditch which has been mentioned they were horrified at seeing in the bottom of it a pooled blood four feet long by one broad. The mark made by the boots of the deceased, as he stood in the ditch, evidently with his back to his murderer, and also the marks of the feet of the murderer, when he was lifting Out of it the lifeless body of hie victim, were distinctly visible. A trace of blood was found along the middle of the relates from this spot to the place to which the body meat have been carried or dragged. About two-thirds Of , the distance along the path was seen a circular patch of blood, such as would have been caused it the dissevered head had been laid down there for a moment on the Mil bleeding surface. The Consideration of these Mote, and of others to-be mentioned presently, showed at once hew the dia bolical crime had been effected. The murderer and his victim must have left the road and struck into the first pathway to go towards the river. One must have walked behind the other, for two could not have found room to walk abreast. Upon coming to the ditch, which had to be crossed before getting into the second path, the murdered man, without doubt, descended into it first. Before he could have got one sheep across he evidently received ;a blow on the left, temple and over the eye (the marks of this blow are clearly present on the head), and was thus thrown backwards against the sloping bank in such a manner that the heels of his boots were driven into the yielding clay of the ditch bot tom. No marks of a struggle are to be found. The murderer, having stunned his unsuspecting victim by a blow which broke in the (Mull, obviously !conti nued on the vantage ground of the bank, and with a knife—a large-bladed one, as the gashes show—see vered the head from the body. From the large quantity of blood found In the shallow pool In the bottom of the ditch and the mere traps of It along the path it is evident that the body must have been in the ditch a sufficient time to allow all the blood to drain from it. No doubt some considerable time was occupied in hacking the vertebra) of the meek with a knife not particles larly \sharp. The deep indentation made by the boots of the murderer when he stood in the centre of the ditch to lift out the body of the deceased, in or der to hide It in the rushes, was quite plain. Hav ing got It upon the further bank, it was partly dragged, partly lifted, through the narrow path for a distance of some eighteen yards to a comparative ly open space, and there left. The head was der*. sited evident ly on the pathway and left there, While 'hoe Murderer proceeded from hating the rushee( to a spot near a bed of mangel matzo] out so far from ,the river. He there, manifestly with a knife, had dug a hole twelve inches deep and buried the head in It, where it was diecoveredhy some of the. Thames pollee yesterday morning. ,No attempt whatever was made to conceal the body, doubtless because the assassin considered It needlees, as he thought he had prevented identification when he buried the head. The head was buried in the midst of several rat-burrowa. . Romance In Real Life. A romance In real life, of deep plot and thrilllng denouement, fa just now the chief topic Of gossip in Taunton, Mass. The facts, as related by the Taun ton Republican, are these : It appears that about twenty-seven years agp a Captain Brown, whose family resided in Mattapol nett, wee the overseer of the estate of Par. Henry E. • Clifton, a wealthy gentleman of Richmond, Va. From cause, which still remains Secret, a din catty arose between Capt. B. and Mr. C. wherein th,e former considered himself the aggrie ved party. To revenge himself for the supposed wrong he • stole Mr. Clifton's infant daughter, (then but six weeks old), on the day she was christened. The child was brought to Mattapoisett, and secretly adopted by Brown and his wife as their own. She was named Julia, and gTOVI , to be a woman. When only sixteen years old she married Mr. Dario 0. Pierce, a printer, who learned his trade In Fall River. Several years ago they moved to Taun ton, living for a while at East Taunton, but more recently at the Green. Two children have been born them, one of whom Is now living. Paring this long period Mrs, Pierce has lived In blissful Ignorance of her high parentage, and Mr. Pierce, who took her for better or worse, had never ima. Rimed himself the husband of an heiress. He aban doned the printer's trade shortly after learning it, and for several years has earned his daily bread by the sweat of his brow at Mr. Mason's works in this city. This is their history until within'a very short time ; now comes the denouement. Last summer, while Rev. Mr. Talbot, of this city, was at Saratoga, be became acquainted with Mr. Clifton and wile who, it appears, at the breaking out of the rebell ion, converted their Richmond pro perty into cash and moved to Baltimore. In the course of conversation with them Mr. T. remarked upon the striking resemblance Of Mrs. Clifton to a lady parishoner Of his in Taunton. No thirg particular was thought of it ..e.t first • but on his repeating the remark, Mrs. C. Inquired the age of the lady. On being informed that she was about twenty-seven, Mre. 4.3. immediately said to her husband, "Why, that would just be the age of our daughter that was stolen." The matter then re ceived their serious attention Mr. Talbot was taken into their confidence, and inquiry instituted ae to the reputed parents of the young lady. He returned to Taunton ; had a conversation with Mrs. Pierce in regard to her-parentage; informed her of the Sara toga conversation, which led her to ask Mrs. Brown, who, she bad never doubted, was her own mother, if she really were such, at the same time telling her the reason of the inquiry. Mrs. 8., who had kept the secret of the child's parentage for twenty-seven years, was so overcome by the question and the de velopment of facts that she Immediately beoemeill, and died of the heart disease. Before her death, however, she acknowledged that Mrs. P. was not her own daughter. Capt. Brown died a number of years ago. Within a few weeks the affair has develop ed Itself rapidly. Mr. and Mrs. Clifton and Mrs. Pierce have met each other ; and the old colored woman who nursed the abduoted infant, has recog nized h ire. Ps as their real child by a "mole °Ether shoulder !,, The identity of their long-lost daugh ter having been fully established, Mrs. Pierce and her husband have been invited to live with the Cliftons and share in their wealth ; and this they are preparing to do having broken up housekeeping their and disposed of furnitnre.

A LETTER PROM NAPLICS contains an account of the recent opening at Pompeii of another bakery shop, much more extensive than the one disinterred some time since. "This second bakery," says the writer, "Is much larger and the appointments on a much more extensive scale, and in greater variety. The dwelling house of the owner, too is much more luxurious. Although connected with the bake holm!, it has a separate entrant*, and a double at rium and peristyle, both of which are of morn than ordinary extent, and in their size, as well as their decorations, bear witness to the wealth and luxurious tastes of the occupant. Among the relics of this house preserved in the local museum is one which throws a curious lighten the domestic arrangements of the Pompeian baker, being no other than one of the dishes which wore actually in process of prepa ration for dinner on the very day of the catastrophe I Upon the cooking stove in the kitchen was found a stew pan, hall filled with ashes, and in the bottom appeared an indurated mass, which Signor Florelit rightly conjeetured to have been produced by some of the viands which la _y Within the pan, and which, although long since decomposed, had left their Ina press on the now consolidated ashes. Acting upon thisthis happy thought, he applied In this Instance ha ingenious process which was so &foams fully adopted in reproducing that painfully life-like group of human figures, described with such terri blefidelity in one of your former numbers; and the result has flatly justified his anticipations, being an 'exaction simile In bronze of a younv pig, which wail being stewed for the family dinner at the very mo ment when they were surprised by the Stroke of doom."

Amongst these was a diamond, the largest yet - found in the colony, so far as is known, and of purest water. Its natural facets are perfect. Its color is a pale green, but approaching much more nearly to the pure water of the East Indian dia mond than the stone which was the subject of a conversation, not long ago, in the Legislative As sembly.

OUTBAGII AND ROBBNRY.—The residents of Sink ing Valley, in Blair county thrown into a con siderable state of terror and excitement during the week before last by a glaring outrage perpetrated there. An individual Game in the morning to the residence of Mr. John Crawford, in the valley, and desired to purchase Some stook, but being told by the housekeeper that Mr. C. was away, and that she could not Comply with his request, the man took his departure, satisfied, no doubt, that he had gleaned so much infor the mation. In the afternoon, about three lock same renewed his visit, and it was' believed , frompe rson the continual barking of dogs upon the premises, that he had loitered about the dwelling from the time of his first appearance. This time, with bold effrontery, he made known his object,- and demanded of the housekeeper a purple belonging to Mr. Crawford. The woman, surprised at the impudence of the axe dacious rascal, and thinking that by her own un aided power she could not eject him-from the house, bad recourse to strategy, and informed him she would go and get the purse, but at the same time Intending to ring a bell upon the premises, and thereby alarm the neighbors, and obtain their as sistance in capturing the villain. She thereupon started, but the Wary rogue, suspecting treachery immediately oh aaed and caught her. She endeavore d to her utmost to elude his grasp, and straggled vigorously to prevent him from tying her with a cord he had succeeded in obtaining. But all to no purpose; the inhuman scoundrel e ff ectually tied her hands, and then cast her into a closet, the door of which he closed and fastened upon her. He then went In search of the purse, and other valuables in the rooms of the dwelling, having free scope and liberty to effect his nefarious intentions. He ob tained the purse, which, fortunately, contained but an Insignißeant sum, and then struck for other quarters, leaving the houseke co n fine ment confined in the olose closet. From this she was released by Mr. Crawford's daughter, who had re turned from school.

The horses have a hard time of it drawing a few barrels of oil, as the wheels generally sink about axle-deep In mud. If the roads were in better condition the oil would be conveyed seith greater facility, and consequently a larger amOunt of transportation would be had. Tide would confer many pecuniary advantages upon those who have any interest in the oil markets, and to the entire community of 011 City, and con sequently we do not.perceive any reason why they should not have the roads repaired and placed in proper and serviceable condition.
