Landscape gardening is earned to great perfec tion about London, and a huge proportion of th e' shrubbery consists of evergreen-such as holly, laurels, latimatines, arbor vines, and that fine old plant, the thy green. Although the. arson Is far advanced, [October 27,) owing to the humidity of the climate, the dice of nature presents the aspect of eternal 8p4387--- the fields and the Laws are sill rich in viva green, sad were it not for the Autumnal tints which vas negate the . park and the treat trees, you could scarcely realize the approach of Winter.'

The houses generally in these numerous and ex tansies avenues or streets are not designated by itumbere bat by names—such as Blenheim Lodge, MattlexeMill House, Argyle Gottage, Bco.' This matter of varying the style of archnectine, of suburban cottages and villas, is one of no small moment Nothing has detracted more from the beauty of suburban scenery in the vicinity of Pitur burgh, than the almost uniform sameness in the architecture of the dwellings. Utility is not owes eerily sacrificed by an attention to beauty and ve. fiery, and frequently the expense, is very smell la proportion to the benefit to di derived. To trend a trifling expense, in the Mt instanco,thr a unique or Metered design, oar citizens follow in one beaten track, and frequently suffer their builders to out rage all the laws of fitneas, harmony, and propor tion. Another item in the beauty of a landscape, as suggested by the London writer, in the color of sub. tuttawreirideneea. They should :team be white, or brick color. Any neutral tint, or -the natural color of any species of stone, will always harmonize better with the surrounding vegetation. And, while on this subject antis color of houses,, we will suggest a thought which has open occur ' ed to us. If the houses and stores of cao whole city were painted llnee appropriateray any variety of done, a reddish drab, or cl:'Ocolate co lon according to the fancy of the proprietor.—it wand add amazingly to thebeintty of the plaCe.— The everlasting staring red brick wall which meets the eye in every direction, detracts much from the red looks of this animated and improving city. We are glad to see some little improvement taking place, particularly on Penn dimes, and hope it may • be the metrirear of better era in this respect.— Painting one plain color Is not near so expensive ao the wretched system which some 6:1110W, of ire dating bricks, than which nothing can be in worse lade. Bat we are forgetting our London wane, end mast rearm "There are about 30 suburban churnhesthe process of erection amend the Metropolis, most of them nearly completed. The dirle of architecture is the Gothic. and Anglo Norman. The admixture IVof bins granite and the-bright yellow Caen stone, . imported from Normandy, produces a very harmo nious effeet. For the most part they are situated upon beautiful riles; with verdant limos and no rounded by corargreenatunbbery.". This speaks well, both for the piety and taste of she poops of London. Although land is proper. nomad, dear and scarce, to what It is here, yet they do neeconfine their lettiple44lrmship to small lota, withseamy room fo ilight : 4id air, and situate them on dune rancor dreit or alley. We may learn a valuable Unison here. 4 Although the Thames may ltyPeat-kluilltdfklmt to the American reader, who AP= hie estimate of rivers from the majestic Hodaan,Ohm, iPP . 4i or Missouri, perhaps no river in the world presents _ea& varied magnificence and Cultivated besety.— Palaces, Colleges, Cathedrals Churches, a fortress renowned kr canto:lean:lyd gardens, ducal man• sions, castles, and villa residences (the grounds of which are in the highest state of °nitration) adorn its banks." . . . Why may not the banks of cow three bemetifel rivers present a more cultivated aspect? They -can, if every property holder, and al/ who may purchase, and improve property, will make it an object to respres and not earths harmony of the scene; and the Romer can frequently be done with -es little expense as the latter. It only requires coltivated taste and izikomantin.

FROM ■EW WORK• Corrospootteneo of the PittsbawitiLLCM New You, Nov. 10, 1648. Our city, with its usual facility in such things' has relapsed into its old quiet, and tbe election of Gen. Taylor, like all other thing's that temporarily excite us, is not the leading topic of disensakm.— People were very busy discussing chances, until the telegraph made it certain that 160 votes were safe, and then let the subject lest.; The efforts of the Whigs of New York were not less suoccesSfel so far as members of Congress were cancerned,l than in the electoral cuirass, and much u the thirtiosix electoral votes may benefit the country. it is not to be denied that our-thirty4hree;•Whig Congressmen are as essential to success, as the President himself. It will be noticed that the ad. ranee in Stocks has not been sustained, nor could • different result be expected. Confidence is not capital, and will not pay debts, though it often helps small means to achieve the work of large capital. Nov, the election is over, the late news from Eu. rope attracts much attention, and causes a good deal of misgiving for the future. Everything indi cates a farther depredation of oar leading exports in the British markets, warning us that another Mr sines, season will renew the drain of coin that has worked us so Dunk ruin for the past year.— By the latest quotationsin Liverpool, fair New Or leans Cotton sold at Wade- per lb. against 51t4a 5 1 co lest year, with a more marked reduction on the lower and higher grades. When it is remembered that these prices are attended by'a large stock, ups on which the English share of a crop of 2,250,000 bales is •to be added, who can doubt that prices must continue to fall to a point not only ammo. unitive, but in the highest degree ruinous to the growu and the shipmaster. The export of bread. stuffs will do nothing towards restoring the nos mense loss caused by the depreciation of Cotton, and coin must go abroad, The Tariff, that fruit ful cause of evil to us, remains unchanged, and as we have now a prospect of its repeal, it will do us more serious iejury than ever, from the filet that foreign manufacturers will load us with all the goods we can bear, and consumers here, true to private interest, atlll buy all theyean before the home produce is secured in the market, sod prices improve. Next month, gold aid silver alone ran be paid out of the United States Tress ary, and notes once there, must be cancelled, thus destroying what now furnishes desirable exchange and currency. This reduction of the proper curs reney,iVind the enforcement of the specie clause of the Sub Treasury Act, added .to the decreased value of our exports, and the continued increase of imports, men continue to embarrass all com mercial operations until the causes enumerated, are removed by flatland legeiluion, which arena be hid until the session of 1550. Tonight, the famous band ofGerman Musicians make their first attempt in New York. The'real aGungle's" have °omelet last, and theaGermannous" and "NnTannarkurches" most abandon t h e field to these artiste, who come with c lemons reputation. They are to make the gmal tour in pursuit of American fame—and dollars and cents will not overlook so fair • field for both these desirable things, as the Iron Gay. A good deal of pleasure may be expected from hearing the music of this band, which fitr istopassee any orchestra that has yet appeared jp America, in the opinion of those competent tojudgn. The greater part of the $BOO,OOO loaned by the ' Secretary of me Treasury, has been repaid, not by coin, but treasury drafts, and the coin is thus to be' kept in the banks. 8350,000 more is to be paid, when the.whole business will be ended.

With the statements therein made in regard to the superficial (macaw of the valley of the Mis sissippi, which they make to be 1,400,000 square riothe mean quantity of water which falls there c, 2inches incually—smounting to 169,124,- 960,000,000 cubic feet as the quantity which falls in the whole valley; and the estimate they make of 1-12th of the water, being discharged by the river into the Gulf of Mexico, and the other 1111th be log exhaled by the atmosphere or evacuated I have no fault to find. But with the theory adieu ed respecting the clearing of the lands of their primitive filtrate, being a cause for increasing the evaporation, and diminishing the height of the floods in our rivers, oft repeated observations and recurrent facia compel me to disagree. The flood* of our rivers arise either from the fall of ilia at melted wow, separately, or rain and melted snow, united, which always produce our highest freshets. And in either case the height of the flood produced by an equal quantity of water on the same extent of surface wilt be in propor tion to th th e4ity of its descent into the stream— This is • d both by billy and rolling land,aad • clear and notatracted surface. Then whether does fixinat or cleated land present the moat oh 'tractions to theplanning oft' of the water? and which abuts the greatest amount in proportion to the. quantity which falls on the same extentof the ant- au of amen I Certainly the d; which will be admitted .by every candidmin d, that tuts had the opportunity of knowing the innumerable pediments presented by old leaves, roots, dead and fallen trunks and limbs of trees, &c. And it is ev ident that when the water is obstructed in its pas sage, the surface of the earth, which in the forest le ;lamps ecil and open, will absorb the water until the earth below will become saturated with a large proportion of it. But this is not alk in the finest there is the very extensive surface of the trunks and branches of the trees—and if clothed with leaves, still more extensive—which in the case of rain becomes wetted and absorbs a great quantity of it, which never reaches the esrthreod,preirmts a surface for the process of evaporation 'cif more than ten times the extent of the earth's surface bo wed. _ Naar what are circumstances and fact. connect• ed with the-cleared country ? On it there are no obstructions to the whole amount of rain or snow reaching the surface; the largnst portion of the smn face is compact and hard, so that it resists the pea. titration of the water to a great degree, particularly in the winter and spring, the frost having penetra ted to • much greater depth in it than to wooded land; the ahem:thus to the free and rapid passage of the water into the streams have all been remov. ed; the surface for the action of evaporation has been diminished at least tea fold; andthe stubborn facts stare us in the face that the clearing of oar forests has gone on very rapidly and extensively for at leau filly years put, that to the rivers most liable to be . a; f.ed by the operation,much the highest flood ever before known, by t hat important personage "the oldest inhabitant" occurred in the year 1810, and that in the winter of 1832 another occurred, which was at least 21 feet higher than in the former. Bat I should be sorry to alarm the gentlemen I without cause or deprive them of any portion of that felicity'which they appear to derive from their bypotheini in regard to the Muelpplppi river. Its highest Hoods are.-tiniversally, I neneve--produc. ed by the Union of rain and melted WWI and as -1 believe it very probable—from causes which I would assigarthat we will not ksr a half or whole century to crane have as much snow each season as we bad some years ago; I think with the gen. demon, that it may be many years before as highs freshet will occur in it as hat has been seen here.

In the the year 181 , —, - ortenY;as needy Env Ulm younger than sow, I resided in the western part of old Virginia, near the head waters of the Great Kenhawn, so called in contradistinction to the Litle Kenhawa.

But eo it is everywhere Akm years more, and even the mountains of rock which bound our western ?solitaries, will wed as sentinels over the interests of a deruselrpop ted country Among the families in my immediate vicinity were the Tracy', the Whites, the Powell", the Hardier', the Vaughn; and the Masons. UI these fiumlies contained numerous sans and dough ten, of different ages, Most of them as good speci men' of the back woods growth as could !general. ly be found on the frontier. With some of the ju veldts members of these families the grader Ind of my tale will deal. , On a fine morning in September, ten or twelve young men, of from eighteen to twenty years of age, gathered by appointment on a fine Plain at the base of a high mountain which overshadowed • mall lake and seemed to go upward into the sky like a dim aloud seen in the distance. We were all what is technically called good shots, and armed with rifles as true to the mark as any in the settle. meats. We bad gathered that morning for a chase of deer that abounded: in that region, and which were then just out of the limits of a summer vaca tion. At about 8 o'clock the whole complement had arrived, and we cosily seated ourselves under a a huge tree for a slight indulgence ere we darted out. _ . •I was at the Bane Lick no later than yesterday,' said Andy Powell, "and trim me with • white oak sapling, if I didn't start three does and as fine a bock as ever lapped the water from the stream.— Of course Sue was up and at Nior in a minute, but blame my soul, if she didn't miss fire for the first time in aix months." "And you give 'em op?" acid Hiram Tracy, in oniringly. "Give 'em up, did you say?" retorted Andy "no, I give 'em chase, and had got nigh upon 'em with as beautiful a sight an I ever took in my his, when all at once my foot went under a creeping vine and I was floored." "The more fool you," said Stephen. White, "to chase a buck.

"Aa to sighting a deer, snuffing a candle, or bo ring the boll's eye," said Andy, "I dote; give it to any nhap that owns a rifle west of the aWements; sad as for yaa, Steve White, I can whistle off a blackbird's bead where yon can't rattle the tad feathers. I don't often brag, but you know I can do it." lay you a silver dollar to a pistareen, if you can borrow one," retorted Steve, with a flushed (ace, "that I can drive a shine nail home the Gott time trying, at sizty yards, where you can't do it in half an ho.ur." "Double tkul bat and:l'll change places with you." "Done Done '" was echoed simultaneously from both sides, and the whole party as with one aixord, sprang to their feel. All was confusion for on in . mant, but the voice of Simon Vaughn rang clenr dove the din as he cried out in Imam tones— Down the whole of ye. There shan't be any thing here bat fair ploy and a clear field.' In an instant we obeyed oar recognized leader. The money was soon farthcomors lathe propor. tions proposed by Steve White did - pieced Into the bands of Simon Vaughn as referee.

"Them boys," sold he, "you have both got the sun upon your beau, and a good glare upon the stippling. Look out for chances, take a steady aim, and poll with a clear conscience forthe bit of white. I'll warrant you'll neither whip.' The excitement was now intense. Both were capital marksmen, and had brought down their quantity of game earl season far exceeding any others in the region. The men were in looks, appearance and manners perfectly antagonistic:al, and had long been pitted against each other in ea., cry manly sport, White was a very large, power.'

Possessing physical strength suffi cient to warrant him in seeking such adventures which savored of violence end danger, he sou to all Intents and purposes, a downright, thorough bred bully, and yet unlike most civilized bullies, he was no coward — no thought of fear, no hope of escaping danger and trouble ever occupied his mind. He coveted rather than avoided the perils of personal rencontres, and was never so happy as when he could invoke a quarrel and mix tip his tremendous powers with the Where Andy Powell was his very antipodes. Slight in frame and small in stature he looked the very ire personation of an effeminate Nimrod. His light cur. ly hair and beatnifully expressive Grammes denoted the more of famenine grace and beauty than man. ly courage and strength; and yet no man among the dozen assembled there could boast of being his master In personal prowess. Incapable of excite. merit to anger, and ever ready with a pleasant smile and words for his friends, he was a universal favorite. and, to use a common 'repression dour, “was loved nearly as mach as Steve White was hated" Our sympathies and hopes were all with Andy oar fears with his opponent. The toss up of a plisnueen gave Steve the first shot at the Dad, and Mapping quickly forward to hW stand, he with • quick movement, denoting perfect confidence in his own powers, drew his rifle to hi. shoulder,and seemingly without taking aim, pulled the gger. The hall cut the loose edge of the paper clone to the rim, and burled itself in the tree! "A aunt A miss'" cried half • dozen voices In concert. . "What can you expect when a man sprawls his paper over the whole tree likg a sheet upon aline." growled Steve. "But no matter, he can't more than cover mine, and the next time I'll hide the nail fur you." Andy Powell during this short conference had spoken not a ward. But now his chest heaved, bin eye dilated, and his face dueled with sudden ex citement. We all saw that be would drive his bul let as true as his rifle would allow, and watched his fire with eagerness. Stepping an slowly and coolly to his position as though about to draw upon a squirrel, be lowered his rifle slowly to ita place, stopped and a:ambled kis priming carefully, again brought the piece to bear upon the mark, arid eller aiming steadily foe about a minute, fired. The paper on the mstant disappeared, and the next moment a wild, terrific shout rent the air like the war whoop of the Indian. Andy Powell was declared the victor' Every hand bur ens was extended to greet the victorious youth, every face but one was lit up with a wile of joy at his unexpected sac-mu—that one excepa tion was Steve White. And no one wondered at the terrible change in his countenance. This was his first defeat—his first loss eta complete triumph over an adversary. He spoke not a word, he uttered no complaint, he breathed no oath, but upon his face there gleamed the demoniac fury that raged within, betokening anything but good to his victorious adversary.

It was Ste. phen White, the would be Murderer, in full flight for the valley of the river. Poor Andy was pickhd up from the ground cov ered with and seemingly no better than a dead man. An examination proved,however,that, with the exception of a pretty severe wound in the flashy pan of his hit arm; he was not serioualy, 'damaged. The bullet, which was a ragged one and inteaded for a better Spot than a left - arm, had spared the life of our favorite for a death at some future time.

Straining their eyes on avety aide, they were Warded by even the faxes and rabbits which fled before theca. Though deer, and dOe, and back crossed t h eir path at abort in. tervala, it was ever with the most perfect impa. nity. Reckless of the loss of the choicest game which tantaliiing stood, as it were, ready to be taken, they sped furiously onward, seeking for the game whose haul's blood should be shed upon the alter of their own revengeful passions; whose veins should be dried up and left to wither and Kaaren in the sun. Their Imaginations conjured up some new some diabolicallnethod of slow punishment, whom pain, while chastening, should teach the surety of lthimate ehastittement from offended hon or, of dreadful retribution from the hands of those who showed no Mercy." Happy Would have been the fate of the murderous Indian upon Whose trail they should alight, is comparison with the terrific consequences of an ermounter with the wretch whose very name they teethed; easier by far would have been the escape of a feeble fawn when un der the very sight of their unerring rifles than the advancement one step from them of the outlaw whom they hunted Like iffinkvild beast from hill top to valley.

He carried the imposition so far as to receive the calla of a great number of citizens, and actually, received an invitation to visit the far famed frigate Constitution.

Bruns BOAT Ronsisa.—A very genteel and tisb. ionably attired gentleman was brolight to the May. er's oilier, yesterday morning, charged with enter tog the state moms and robbing several passenv gees on the .team . boat Zachary Taylor, on 'Rtes. day night. The robberies were committed after the boat paasod Beaver, on her way to this city.— The porter, who slept on the door in the cabin, testifted that he saw the person charged with the robbery, pass along the .gentlemen's cabin, in his stockings, without coat or Imo on—saw him de liberately dim the light from the lamps, so as to kave the cabin nearly dark, then enter two state items—one on each side of his own. .The cham ber maid testified to similar cool operations in the ladle's cabin. One gentleman was robbed of all his money—some fifty dollars in gold—and a lady , passenger'' purse, containing a considerable earn In fall aslpins, was also taken._ Tl+9-Pwle 14. sticinlithevollbeY gave him an oppotfunlry,ivent to. awaken the barkeeper, but not succeeding, and wishing to avoid giving warning to the,robber that he had been detected, went down beloi, toes.ll up 11113618 of boat's crew. Mean while the chamber maid had given the alarm, and the robber jumped into tine of the state moms in the ladle's cabin, locked the inner door, and plumed not through the outer door, akingthe guar* to his own room. He was immediately traced to his room, and found in his berth, apparently sound asleep. Oa being er. twined a pane ww Mond in his pocket, eontain ing about the amount sum description of coin taken from the lady who had been robbed. In his cloak, between the lining and the cloth were bred con. coaled two bank mars—one on each side of the cloak. The parse taken front the lady was bond on the cabin floor, itill containing a gold pin, which had no doubt been intentionally left, as likely to be easily identified. An instrument used by picklocks, called an outsider, and a gimblet, were also Mend, but none of them in the possesaion of the sup. posed robber. Owing to the difficulty of identify ing the money, it is not impossible that the encored ma i escape conviction, although there GUI SCSIOD- Iy Ge doubt of his guilt. He is a delicately form. ed man, of very dashing ithpearance-4ong, sharp now, very long, black hair, sod black ewes; and on expression of great coolneoa and decision of rho. nuithe He gives his name as Geo, P.

ACTILWCZNOI m Draresv.—Nothing gives us greater hope of the permanency of our republican institutions, than the unhesitating acquiescence of the political parties in the result of elections. Du. ring the contest just closed, we saw both parties struggling desperately f r victory--straining every nerve, employing every instrumentality likely to prove evadable—each hoping for sticeess, and per feelly confident of its achilivetnent•-•tbe trial day came—victory perched on the standard of "Old Zack," and the Democrats looked a little blue, saute even smiled, -albeit grimly," and then gaudy gave it up—prepared to surrender offices, breed and power, and "bide their time" fur happier for. tune. No where else in the whole flee of the earth, at no period in the whole history of the world, haik"sneh a scene been witnessed, as that presented to the over watching spirits of our doper tad fathers on the 7th day of November.

The Question, When has been done for the Educw tion of the Coked Children of our Csty? To the alutme'of our city, containing one ha dyed Ministers of the Gospel, and nearly as ma .y houses of public worship, the true answer must be jour mellow at It is true the Presidents of the several Boards of School Directors have acted as a Board of School Directors for Colored Schools by common consent, ranter than under "the power. of any existing law." They have made several at. tempts towards making a permanent location, and for building a School Howel l but awing to the comparative poverty of those Wards in which the most of our colored population live, and the o*k spirit manifested by those Wards in which but few of our colored population reside, nothing hes as yet been accomplished. It is probably known to most of your readers that the 3d, 6th and 9th Wards of the city each contain more colored in. habitual, than all the other six Wards pat together. As the School law now stands, each Ward must Provide for all the scholars in said Wards. Now is it not manifestly wrong to require those Wards in which the greater part of our colored population live, to bear the burden of keeping up the Schools for the children, when the parents of these very children are operating directly for the benefit of those Wards in which they do not reside? A special law should be passed for the support Of colored Schools by a tax upon the assessed val. nation of property in each Ward. and Sc the sp• pointita zit or a legal Board of Director conaisting of onahlember from each Ward, to be appointed by the several Boards of School Directors.
