She reported herself short of provisions,

of beef and pork we had thrown overboard,
site went un her way. On Sunday, the
27th, we discovered another sail bearing
down upon us.' t ... , She proved to he th e
barque Kilby, of and bur Boston, from
New Orleaqs, loaded with cottmi, thirty
five days out. By authority Col. Gates,
commanding detachment, she was char

to the nearest accessible post. TueSday
was too rough to disembark any part of the
command, but on Wednesday, the 2Sth,
Col. Gates and family, Maj. Merchant

and Judd, with their families, Drs. Setter

are not recollected, were safely enittarked
on board the Kilby. Some luny or bitty

We hal now (Thursday, the 29th,)!
reached the sixth day since the storm
commenced. We were about to encoun•
ter death in a new form. A very large
portion of the ship's steerage . hat! been
tilled 'with cargo, provisions, militarr I
stores, &c. The consequence was that
the portion left ter the soldiers was much'.
crowded, It had been expected we should
soon be in fine weather, and that they
could sleep comfortably in standee berths
on deck. When the storm came that was
impossible, and they were consequently'
driven below. Crowded in narrow quer.
tars. exposed to sold and wet, obliged to
he fed on an insufficient diet. in conse-;
quenee of the lose of their galleys, and the
impossibility for cooking tor such num- I
hers, it is no matter of surprise that disease
soon made its appearance. Add to this
the influence of depressing passions, anx
iety lit mind, fright, and despondency,
and it itffito wonder that they sickened and
died. The disease more nearly than any
thing assumed the form of Asiatic Hioletv,
commencing withadiarrhma and termi
nating in a few hours. Both the army
surgeons having left the charge ol the sick
fell upon the surgeon of the ship. To
add 10 OW distress, nearly all the
vine in the ship had been either washed
overboard or destroyed. The mortality
was necessarilygreat. Men women and
children fell indiseriminately before it, and
whole families perished in twenty-four
hours. It was a scene of awful suffering
over which I should rather dra'w a veil,
and the like of which I trust a merciful
God will spare toe ever wintessing a
gain.
Poring Thursday and Friday our eves
were not gladdened by rialinele sail. The
hours dragged most heavily. We hut!
abtindance of provisions on board, bnt it
was almost impossible to get them cooked.
The "roll of the ship was ao heavy that
the provisions were thrown from the gal-
ley. When we could get a cup of hot tea
with tier biscuit it was a treat; and when
a roasted :tout° and a piece of fried pork
Was added to our bill of fare, it became a
sumptuous repot. We attempted to issue

rough weather, and was leaky. On Tues
day evening we succeeded in putting a sear.

the pumps.
On Wednesday morning. the 4th of Jan
uary, the work of disembarking commenc
ed in earnest. The sick, of whom there
was a large number, and some in a dying
condition, were wrapped in blanklets,l
brought on deck. and lowered carefully '
into the boats. Casks of water were low

of the shortness of provisions on Board

the two ships. Lieutenants Winder and
Chandler, with about 140 soldiers..eor.

Captain Watkins also determined to ac

He was rowed alongside the Three Bells,
where he was greeted with nine hearty
cheers, and then pulled away for the An
tarctic. The San Francisco settled grad
ually deeper into the water.
When the Three Bells left the wreck
she was in latitude 30 and longitude 50
60. about 000 miles from New York.—
We encountered a great deal of norit.east
erly wind, and our progress was slow un
til Wednesday, the 11th of January•,
when we were favored with a stiff breeze
from the southeast, which drove us rapid
ly on, and on Thom sday afternoon we
were off soundings. Towards evening
it grew thick, and the captain, fearing to
venture too fur in, stood off and on till
morning.
Friday dawned bright and fair. We
signaled for a pilot, and then a steam tug,
and at 5 P. M. we were at anchor off the
Battery.

every heart when we thought of the terri

From Europe.
pc_rThe news- brought by the Europa
exhibits no important changes iu the posi
tion of the Turkish question. On the
Danube, the armies art quiet in winter
quarters, though there are reports of a
movement. by Gen. Dannenberg toward
Kalefat with a view to expel the Turks
from Lesser Wallachia. The allied fleets
have not entered the Black sez,lm account
of storms now prevailing there,it is said,
but more probably for want of orders.—
From Asia there are rumors of Turkish
reverses on the Georgian frontier, but
nothing pisitive enough to enable us
to judge as to what the truth is in the
premises. Meanwhile the Western di
plomatists continue to negotiate and the
Russian Government to prepare for a vast
campaign in the spring. The Scandina
vian powers are also making ready for the
worst. In Englaid the Ministers have a
gain postponed the meeting of Parliament
—a shrewd measure on their part, for they
could hardly hope to survive the first fort
night of the sessios. On all the horizon
there are no other signs of peace than the
timidity of the **stern Governments.—
They desire quiet at any cost, but there is
nothing besides their desire to make a
peaceful settlement possible.
Stir The Report of the Superintendent
of Common Schools is, as usual, an inter
esting document, showing the gradual idit
provements in the system. The reports
from all the districts are not included, but
the Superintendent estimates the number of
schools open during the year at over 10,-
000; the average time they were open
was five mouths. The average pay of the
teachers has increased, that of males being
$19,26 per month, , and that of females
$12,64. the whde number of pupils in
attendance was about 480,000. This
does not include •. Philadelphia city and
county, in which there were 286 public
schools, with 69,085 pupils, at an expense
of $411,808 85. The ampunt of school
tax levied in the State, exclusive of
Philadelphia city and county, was $1,021,-

A Handsome Revenue.
11r — PGov. Bigler acknowledges, in his
Message, that "on the Allegheny Portage
railroad the condition of affairs is entirely
unsatisfactory," and that "the system of
management heretofore practiced on that
work, would seem to demand a speedy and
radical change." Yet he also says : "I
am, however, still entirely sanguine that
with the necessary change in the system
of management, the public improvements
can be made to yield a very handsome rev
enue to the treasury." But who is to
make the "necessary change ?" Not those
revelling upon the spoils ! 'Not those in
whose hands they now are, nor those who
have bad the control of them for the last
quarter of a century nearly I These men
will not make the "necessary change in the
system," as the Governor well knows.—
It is not to them that the people can look
for any improvement in the management
of the public works ; and it is useless to
expect any change so long as the works
are in their hands, and they have the ex
penditure annually of millions of dollars,
as* fund for bribery and corruption, to
=Attain their power.
No man acquainted with the extent of
business done on the State works, can doubt
the assumption of the Governor, that with
proper management, “the,aptem of pub•
lie improvements can be made to yield a
very handsome revenue." But no one can
believe that this will ever be done "to the
State." A private company would un
doubtedly make the works pay. Their
expenditures for repairs, U., would not
be one-third of those now of the State.—
A tomeseluy and radical "'change' - Would
make them pay to the stockholders, the in
terest annually on at least thirty millions,
and probably mere. But the State poll
tioians.have tried their , hand at them, long
enough. They have gio' wn rich, while
the tax-payers have borne the burthen of
htoping up the works and paying,the
in
-tenet of the debt created in theirconstrue
goo. Is it nor time that an effectual
change should be made 7—lndependent

place, a BUI?or the reeharter of the Get

That portion of the Governor's message
which refers to the sale of the Public
hae been referred to a select Com
mittee in the Senate—Messrs. Evans,
Jamison, Slifer, Quiggle, and Foulkrod.—
It is said that there is a majority in both
Houses in favor of the Bale, and that a
bill will be passed for thatperpope, not
withstanding the Governor'soppeation.—
Tho bill once passed, the Governor will
not darn to veto it.

with the following result
For Joseph Bailey, Porn. 86 votes.

The balance scattering. There were 121
votes. Mr. Bally will no doubt make a
good offieer.
Petitions in favor of a Prohibitory Liq
uor Law are pouring into both Houses.—
The members of the House friendly to Pro
hibition held a caucus last week to deter-I
mine the best policy to be pursued—wheth
er to go for a Prohibitory Law, uncondi- j
tionally, or to submit the question to a pop
ular vote. A majority favored uneondi-1
dorm' legislation. It is generally under- i
stood that a majority of the members of '
the House will vote for any law the friends
of Prohibition may present, which may
provide for a submission of the question
to the people. There will be no difficulty
in the Senate.
In the Senate, Mr. Ferguson offered the
following with a lengthy preamble :
Ilesolved,That our Senators in Congress

The Senate is preparing for debate on
the Nebraska bill. On Monday, Mr. Di )(-
Uri, of Kentucky, gave notice of an amend

nine Representatives and five Senaturs, to
take the matter into consideration and re
port a bill.
On motion, the report and resolution •
was ordered to be printed.
On the same day Mike Walsh took the
floor while the Deficiency Bill was before
the House, and spoke at length upon the
New York political difficulties. Mike be.
longs to the "Huth," and bore down with
much severity upon the Administration
for interfering in behalf of the "Softs."
We give a paragraph or two from Mike's
speech as an index of its tone, with a sharp
postage beiween him and Mr. Smith, of
Alabama :
In 1852 the democracy had their plat
form erected, on which Gen. Pierce was
elected, he having accepted the nomina
tion with the accompanying resolutions,
and he acquiesced in the principles a
vowed, because they were the principles
of his past life. How have these been
carried out in office? If gentlemen sup
pose there is seeming opposition to the
administration from the New York dem
errata. because of disappointment in not
receiving office, they sadly undervalue the
men with whom they have to deal.
When the administration undertook to
interfere with the local elections, ■nd so
make Greene C. Bronson do their dirty
work, they could not have known that
high-minded and honorable man. When
the threat was uttered by the administra
tion, the democrats heard the mandate
with sorrow, but hurled back the threat
with manly indignation. They, too. tri
umphed against all the power and appli
ances of the administration, and he would
tell the friends of the administration that
when the next election comes they will
find the triumph is ten times more sig
nal.

cality, and what a ••soli" head or a ••soft"

dy to be acecommodated to any forni.--
The Democratic party as it (fatherly ex
isted. has been a party Ql well-di-filled and
universally understood principles, but the
course pursued latterly, recognising a
class of factionian to the favors of the Ad
ministration, is a degrading declaration

ted to come together, not on any coin
principles, but like a band of bandits,
drawn together for the sake of common
plunder.
Mr. Smith. of Alabama. said that e
very important question had arisen which
lie did not understand. In order that the
difference between a New fork
and "Ilard" might go out to the couniry
with the gentleman's speech, he desired
him to give an explanat .
Mr. Walsh replied. the difference is the
same a. beiwe. n an honest man and
rogue. [This excited loud and long con
tinued laughter. Some of the members
fairly screamed.
Mr. Smith of Alabama. confeseed the
reply of the gentleman was a little equiv
ocal. He did not know whether the ..B. , ft"
or the ••Harrl" is the rogue. [laughter.]
Mr. Walsh.—The difference between
a Illarnburner n aktolionliunist in disguise.
or a "Soft.":is simply that a '•soft' never
does anything openly, but acts secretly.
for his own advancement and aggrandize
ment, going over to the enemy to benefit
himself when necessary.
Mr. Walsh was followed by Mr. CC - sting
of New York on the same aide io a very
able and gametic speech, which drew on
a running fire between Cutting and Smith.

to defend the Administration.

led in Congress: and we trust Ott every
Representative from Pennsylvania will be
tuund at his post and ready to sustain any
measure that has for its object the distri.
button of the Public Lands, so as to do
justice to the old or original Status.
We observe that the bill heretofore
known as Bennett'. Bill has been introdu
ced into the present Congress, and may
pass, if from no other motive, from the
desire on the part of many of the Mem
bers to do something to assist the various
railroad projects that are now struggling
for advancement in different States.—
There has heretofore been a strong oppo
sition to this measure front the States
on the ground of "Constitutional objec
tion.."
To meet all these objections, and to
settle a controversy, on which so much
can be said, Mr. Bennett's bill has been
framed. Instead of placing the proceeds
of the sale of the lands into the Treasury,
as has been done, it proposes to divide
the land itself among the States, in pro
portion to the representation of their pop
ulation and of their State sovereignty com
bined, giving 150,000 acres to every Sen
ator and Representative. The disposal
°Lillis donation it leaves with the Legis
latures of the old States. 'l'he new Slates
are required to employ their share of these
lands in railway MD netructions. The ob
ject oh this restriction is to sausfy the de.
mends of the new States on this subject,
and thus drive their applications from
Congress, where they are becoming 'nui
sance.
