EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM THE EHI- TOR, DATED Columbia lloini!, I Philadelphia, June 25, 1850 850. J Steam hut msde a wonderful change in the commercial world within the last ten years. Before the Ocean was navigated by eteamers, only a dozen et since, we were often without news from the old world for a month. Now steamers are arriving every few days. Besides, California has become, ns it were, a new world to ns, and may, in some respects, be viewed as a distant colo ny instead of a coterminous part of the Union. The arrival of the Cambria gives us the ef fect of the first intelligence of the invasion of Cuba in England. Parliament and the Bri tish Government were considerably startled with the intelligence, and a long debate en titled between the Ministers and the opposi tion members. The relations between Eng land and Spain have not been, for some time past, of an amicable character, but England is extremely jealous of the growing power of the United States, and was, no doubt, ready to interpose in behalf of Spain, if circumslan ces should have required it. The Earl of Aberdeen in the House of Lords, stated that twenty years ago he proposed that England, France and the United States, should guar antee the possession of Cuba to Spain. Our government refused to join in tho guarantee Business is growing more dull rs the wea ther gtiws warmer, and next month, when all will leave that can leave, business will bo ill a stand. The boats to Cape May have already commenced running. The Penobs cot and the Kennebeck are said to be very fine boats, with good accommodations, and under the command of obliging and attentive officers. The boats run between Philadel phia and New York, via; the Capes. The Columbia House, by L. Harwood, at Cupe May, is highly spoken of for its very superior accommodations. The Omnibuses, which thread ' almost every street, are doing a smashing business, but the poor skeleton frames of horses suffer terribly under the lash and the heat. How quiet the city would be without them 1 though twenty years ago they were scarcely known. Yet numerous as Ihoy are here, they bear no comparison to tie number in INew fork, they area source of great convenience and enable many to live, as it were, out of town. To ride from Kensington to the Navy Yard, two miles, for sixpense appears almost incredible. It ie in fact the carriage of the multitude, the poor as well as the rich. You havo but to raise your finger and the driver stops to receive you. In New York, Broadway is literally jammed with them. A gentleman who was there a few days since, says he wailed fifteen minutes by his watch, for an opportunity to cross the Btreet. Some gentleman, sometime since who had the curiosity to count, stated that over nine hundred vehicles passed a cen tain point in one hour. The Whig Convention, which we believe was the first State Convention, ever held in this city, was well represented. The dele gates were treated with great hospitality.' The prospect of success being small, there was not much difficulty in making nomina tions. The Lancaster delegation were, how ver, with dirlicully quieted, after the rejec tion of John Strolim for Canal Commissioner. His vote in Congress, refusing supplies to our Volunteers in Mexico, did the business for him. Henry W. Snyder the nominee for Auditor General is well known in our neigh borhood, and is a worthy and competent man. but 1 presume he does not feel much anxiety for the cares of office, in anticipation of his election. Congress is progressing slowly with the slavery question. The compromise will no doubt pass the Senate and will, I think, with certain amendments in the House, pass that body. Should this event take place soon there may be some hopes of a modification of the tariff. Mr. Webster, by his patriotic and manly course has acquired many new friends. The New England cotton mills and the Pennsylvania furnaces, will not be the less cared for in consequence, The markets are now well supplied with vegetables and fruit. Strawberries were old, last week, as low as five cents per quart rottsyille correspondence. Pennsylvania Hall, ) Pottsvillc, June 2-lrt, 1850. J Mr bear American : This town always reminds me of a huge man in a small suit of ciothes. It is perfectly hemmed in by moun taint and crowded together in a most uneasy and uncomfortable position, that to look at it on a sultry day like this, makes one feel as if he was buttoned up to the chin in a very tight overcoat. But the demands of extrn- tensive trade forced the people to erect lion ea wherever it was possible to placo them and each strove to get as near tho centre as possible. Latterly they are extending their bounds, and Mahantongo street forms the most beautiful and pleasant part of tho town. It is rather steep for a square or two west of Centre street but then ascends with an easy grade. A number of beautiful residencos have been built along the upper end. Among these Courtland Terrace attracts particular at tention. These houses are built in the cot tage style and painted in imitation of red sandstone. In front are beautifully terraced gardens, and along the rear the sombre shad ows of a dense thicket of young pines pre sent a pleasing and striking contrast with the blaze of midday upon the pavement. The position commands a fine view of the town and much of the surrounding country A little above of Courtland Terrace, in a shady grove, is the Academy ; a handsome brick building, in which are training the fu ture lights of the town. Amorig the faculty is Mr. Kirkwood, whose recent astronomical discoveries have immortalized his name. Still further on lies tho Cemetry. It is handsomely laid out, favorably situated and neatly kept, but does not contain any very striking monuments. Silvir Terrace, at the southern edge of town is not yet completed, but it original style and Imposing size promise to make it most beautiful structure. The new Court House it being built upon a commanding eminence to tho riyhl of Cen tre street as you cntor it from Sunbnry. The material of which it is constructing is brick. It is very large and not very well planned. Besides its distance from tho centre of town and the height of the hill upon which it stands are such as threnten to place justice beyond the reach of all who are not blessed with stout limbs and good wind. The pub lic offices are to be placed in tho basement. The jail will be built a few squares distant. The Court House will be under roof by the 4th proximo, when a jollification is expected to take place. Through the courtesy of Mr. Hookey, the superintendent of the Gas works, 1 had an opportunity of examining tho process by which tho town is lighted. Tho Carbuietted Hydrogen is produced hero from rosin. The gas is pure and makes a brilliant light, al though from tho small sizo of the burners the illumination of both houses and strcots is not so bright as it might be. There has been much prejudice against the use of gas here, but is dying away, and camphine and can dlos nre going out. The scenery in tho neighborhood is very fine, particularly when viewed from Sharp mountain. Long lines of buildings stretch away from Pottsville on every side like tho divcrsing beams of the sun whpn near the horizon. Tho fact is that this region is not exactly in its zenith. The coal business has been overdone and will take some timo to recover from its consequent piostration. This town is very dull except on Saturday ighl and duiing the whole of Sunday, when constant erowd are upon tho sidewalk. esterday, Sunday there was a grand mili iry display. The regiment under Col. Na- gle paid the last honors to the remains of Ser geant McClnre, an aged revolutionnr. This regiment is justly celebrated for the neatness and taste of its uniform, and its high state of discipline. While this delighllul weather lasts, we will visit Tumbling run, Swatara falls, and all the rest of the grand places of resort here, and if any thing interesting happens, you shall hear from me.

Sorrje scientific society down east has awarded a premium to John Green, for a new method of expelling foul air from wells, &c, by means of unslacked lime. This air, which sometimes collects in wells and coal mines, is carbonic acid gas, and lime has long been used to dissipate it. Lime, as used for white .wash and mortar is made from the carbonate of lime by burn ing it with coal, either mineral or vegeta ble, which expels the excess of carbonic acid and leaves the protoxide which is quicklime. By the slaking process it be' comes the hydrate of lime. Both the ox ide and hydrate have a powerful affinity for carbonic acid, and when thrown into wells, Sec. where it exists, will immediately combine with it, forming the carbonate ol lime. An equally efficacious method of dislodging this or any other foul air, ii to lower into it a pan of burning charcoal which produces an upward current of air carrying off the foul and introducing fresh in its place. ' Both methods have long been in use and we do not see anything in Mr, Green'i which deserves a premium, as it is not original wilh him. SUNlttJllY AMERICAN AND SHAM OKI N SUNSET ON THE SUSUCEIIANNA. During the past few weeks we have wit nessed a ' succession of gorgeous sunsets which seemed to vie with each other in variety and loveliness. Our scenery, even under cloud, is beautiful, but beneath the showers of purple and gold that the setting sun pours over the valley, river and moun tain side, it exhibits tranacendant charms which alike defy the power of pen and pencil. There is no hour of the day that. has half the sweetness of a summer sunset. Morn may break with its rosy dawn, fra grant with the fresh perfume of the open ing flowers and vi.-cal with the matins of a thousand joyous birds, but there is some thing in the magnificence of a summer sun set, where all the splendor of that orb bursts out in a succession of brilliant colors, as man and beast, fatigued with the clays's la bor, seek their homes, the winds die away and' nature seems to bo composing herself for the repose of night, that gives us an in definable pleasure. We could sit upon the banks of the Susquehanna and watch one of these sunsets through eternity and ask no other blessing. Then as the sun slowly descends 'The mnon is up, nnd yet it is not night HnniM't. divides the day with her a sea Of plory streams along the dizzy height i H the fnr distant mountains ; Heaven is flee From clouds, but all of colors seem lo 1 Melted to one vast ins of the West, Where the day joins the past eternity; While on the other hand fair Diun's ercut l'Moul through the azure air nn island of the Mcst ! A single star is at her side, nud reigns With her o'er half the lovely heaven j hut still Yon sunny sea heaves brightly, and remains As Nijihl nnd Day ronlcndiiu; were, until Nature reclaimed her order; gently flows The ftisqurhaniut where their hues instil The odorous purple of a new born rose, Which streams upon her stream and glass 'd within it glows, Killed with the face of Heaven, which, from afar Comes down u;ioii the waters; nil its hues, From the rich sunset to the rising star, Their magical variety diffuse; And now they change ; a paler shadow throw Its lnautle o'er the mountains; parting! day lies like the dolphin whom each pang holmes With a new color ns it gasps away, The last still loveliest, till t'isgone and all isgiay.') CALIFORNIA NEWS. The Crescent Cily arrived at New York on Monday, bringing fifteen days later news from California, half a million of gold dust, and 117 passengers. The health of Chagres and Panama was good. A destructive fire occurred in San Fran cisco on May 4th, which reduced one fourth of the city to ashes. It is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary, and a reward of 5f)000 has been offered for his apprehension. The loss is estimated at $500,000. In ten days after the fire, ma ny of the houses were rebuilt and several stores were replenishing their shelves with new goods. The reports from the mining districts, both North and South, are still favorable. The health of the placers is good. The city fathers of San Francisco have determined to erect cisterns and sink arte- sean wells in all parts of the city, so that a supply of water can always be readily ob tained. The number of engines and the strength of the fire department is also to be increased. A party of Indians had attacked and murdered a few miners on North Fork, near Auburn. They also severely wound ed a trader and robbed his team. A party from Auburn immediately started in pur suit, overtook the Indians and killed twenty-five before they fled. A Volunteer corps has been formed to scour the country and make war upon the Indians. It is suppo sed there were white men with the Indi ans who incited them to these outrages. NEWS IS SCARCE We judge from the column upon column devoted in many papers to a street fight be tween Forrest, a play-actor and Willis, an editor. One would suppose from the fuss that is made about them, that they were pillars of the state, and that the result of an exhibition ol rowdyism on their part was big with importance to the United States and the rest of mankind. The fact is that nobody, except a few friends of the parties, cares a copper which of them was whipped, or whether he deserved a thrash ing. In the country, when two persons so far lorget their good breeding and decency as to engage in personal rencontre, they are so much ashamed of themselves after. wards, and feel their degradation so deeply that so far from perpetuating their disgrace by newspaper cards, they are too happy to have the affair forgotten as soon as possi ble. But in our cities, which set them selves up as examples to the rest of the community, these personal matter become affairs of national importance, and the rage for carding is so great that even dutch Charley and Yankee Sullivan felt them selves called upon to make a public state. ment of their grogshop quarrel. Now, we have statements and counterstatemc nts from Forrest and Willis, and their backers, to gether with comments at large from the press, upon a common fight between two persons, who, if ever they were gentlemen seem to have forgotten it on that occasion. This notoriety may be very pleasant to the combattants, but we much doubt if they are envied by any respectable man in the country. If there is a taste among the readers of the papers which have taken such a deep interest in this fight, formatters of this dis- cription j it is a depraved taste, and it be comes their editors to correct, if possible, instead of pandering to it. We shall not be surprised to find others taking this new mode of acquiring notoriety and exposing their domestic relations. THE CUBAN INVADERS. The Grand Jury of the United States Court, at New Orleans, have found a true bill against Gen. Lopez, Ex-Governor Hen derson, Gov. Quitman, Judge Pinckney and eleven others, for violating the neutral ity laws. It is painful to us to see such distinguished menarrainged for such acrime, men whose public stations and trusts ought to have placed them beyond the control of such motives as led to the expedition. To some of them was committed the adminis tration of the laws they were the first to break. They were looked tip to by the community, and their example has been the means of leading many to embark in thisscheme; some of whom have already forfeited their lives. To whom can we confide the administration of our laws and the guidance of public affairs, when Gover nors and Judges, high executive and judicial officers, project and aid in carrying out ex peditions for piracy and plunder. What obedience can be expected from the people when officers thus hold themselves out as the leaders of insubordination ! Where can we look for safety when those who have sworn to administer the laws excite and en. courage insurrection ! It is a sight which must sicken the heart of honest men who love their country and her institutions. Theirs is a spirit which must bring ruin nnd disgrace upon the country. Unless it is promptly checked by the swift and severe punishment of those guilty, we may as well have no laws, no government, but live like Turks and Arabs upon the spoils of weaker nations. The avowed object of the invaders was to rescue Cuba from Spanish tyranny and oppression. Their secret intention was to get gold, glory and influence in that island. The whole scheme was one grand specula, tion from the beginning. Soldiers were enlisted for exorbitant wages to be paid, upon the contingency of success, out of the spoils. Officers were easily procured under the same golden expectations. And yet they would have the world believe that, from pure love of liberty and disinterested sympathy with the enslaved, they risked the perils of war and thegarote, by landing in Cuba, and braved the consequences of crime by concocting and aiding the exjiedi- i i uti.i .i .i . nun .u iiunif. iv nai sympainy tney de serve from peaceful and law-abiding citizens we can not say. If a party of abolitionists were to make an incursion into Maryland, attack and murder a planter,and plunder his house for the purpose of giving his slaves freedom, they would undoubtedly he hung, if apprehended, and they would deserve il. But they have the same right to do this as the "Ousel Ovh" had to invade Cuba. The only difference is that the latter intended to plunder on an extensive and wholesale system. We hope the accused will undergo an im partial trial, unbiased by morbid sympathy. If they are guilty they ought to pay the pen alty of guilt, and the punishment should be heavier in proportion to the rank and influ ence of the criminal. Whoever contribu ted his aid in this expedition deserves se vere punishment. Not only did they break the laws of the United States, but their con duct might have involved the country in a war and caused the sacrifice of numerous and valuable lives. If they are not punish ed, wc shall have bands of marauders set ting out upon similar excursions every year. There are always men ready to show their bravery and spirit in bloodshed rather than earn an honest living, and unless the Laws are enforced against them, we shall make the United Stales a prolific brooding place of pirates. The high standing of Governor Quitman and Ex-Governor Henderson, should make them a mark for, not shield them from, punishment. K7 Tin: Last Agony. Yesterday we saw a youthful sticker imbibing a julep in most luxurious style. Amid the green leaves of the mint, reposed a full blown rose ; and his nose inhaled the fragrance of the flower, while he sucked up through a straw the iced liquid wilh most exquisite satisfaction. 7" Tho public dinner tendered to Hon Robert Walker, at Pittsburgh, is, we trust, on account of his services in the Wheeling bridge case. His labors to annihiliate the iron business would scarcely deserve such a compliment from the Iron City. K7"The citizens of Columbia county have held an indignation meeting, and pro tested fiercely against the erection of Mon tour county. They pledge themselves for a repeal of the act. O" This Whig Statu Convention. This body met at the city of Philadelphia on the 19th iust., and nominated Joshua Di'nuan, of Bucks county, for Canal Commissioner. Jlen ry Snyder, of Union county, for Auditor Con eral, and Joseph Henderson, of Washington county, for Surveyor General.

Baldwin, indicted for robbing the mail at hisoflice in Great Bend, Susquehanna county, occupied the court for three days. The jury returned a verdict of "guilty." Judge Grior, sentenced the prisoner to ten years' hard la bor in the Western Penitentiary, at Allegheny city. The case of Charles M. Gearhart for rob bing the mail at Danville was likewise dis posed of. The jury brought in a verdict of "guilty" and he was sentenced to ten years' haid labor in tho Western Penitentiary. JOURNAL.

The King is fast re covering, and may bo considered out of dan ger. Another Ci'ba Expedition. A New Or leans correspondent of the Norfolk Beacon, says ho has reason to believe, from what he has heard, that a second expedition against Cuba is in contemplation. Ho says, further, that it "will be eomoscd of material which will fully test the practicability of tho whole thing. If it is organized and onec lauds on the enemy's shores, its motto will bu success or extermination, as, Corlez like, it will burn tho transports and render retreat entirely out of the question. Indians Burnt Alive. An express came in from Fort Lamarie, a few days since, from which we leain that tho small pox had gotten among the Sioux Indians, who, toslop its rava ges, had burnt to death a number of those that took tho disease. The small pox was also prevailing in several companies of the emigrants. Western (Mo.) lleporter, June 8 Tho total number of deaths in tho city of St. I.ouis, for tho week ending tho 9lh inst., was a seventy-five, of which thirteen are ic ported as from cholera. Another destructive fire has occurred in Milwaukie, Wisconsin, by which tho exten sive stables of the Temperance II on so, to gellior wilh several other buildings, were destroyed. Twenty horses perished in the flamos. A System of Defence for Cuba. A cor respondent of tho Picayune, writing from Havana says : The new plan of garrison and defence for tho island is to be put in force immediately A rendezvous has bocn opened in this city, and men are being enlisted "to serve out of the city." I am told they are to compose the new corps of Civio Guards, which is to be two thousand strong. This forco is to bo placed ulong tho entire coast of the island; the stations tobemadoat every forty leagues and two smull steamers are to be purchased immediately, either iu the United Slates or England, for the purpose of conveying infor tnation. The Government are resolute in be lie vin2 that the feast 'is not finished. Tho regiments of Galicia and Na poles go to Santi ago do Cuba at once, and a reinforcement of mounted artillery to the Control Department. Doing tub Handsomc Thinu. The editor of the New York Tribune having been muletr ed in the sum of six and a quarter cents, in a libel suit, ten of his subscribers have liberally clubbed together and sent him one cent, ho ping that tho example will induce othors to make tip thu loinauiiiig livo sixths ot tho amount. The Knocking Spirits, in New York have communicated the important lact to Gen. Walbriilre, that the Compromise Bill will pass the Senate by nine majority. So the public mind will rest easy on this point. The La it neds Arrested. The two bro thers Lamed, suspected of robbing the Charlestown (N. H.) Bank, have been aires ted at Worchester.
