An Agricultural School.
The propriety of the establishment of an Agri
cultural School, in this region, suggested by oar
correspondent ‘ Fides,’ will not, we think, be ques
tioned. by auy who have the least desire for the
prosperity of that most rmportant branch of nation
al industry. It meets with our hearty approbation,
and We will spare no efforts to promote such an
objecti if it is seriously attempted. We have Car
years the want of such an institution, and have
frequently heard from others deep regrets that such
facilities for an agricultural education were not
within, reach.
Sacti an institution is necessary fur the promo
lion if enlightened agriculture primarily, but
this is not its only, and probably most useful as»
peel, i How" many hundreds of our merchants and
mechanic.*!, who have families of boys growing up,
desire to furnish them with a knowledge aod a taste
for the independent pursuits of agriculture, but
who have no means of giving them the proper
training lor the work. Many a boy, who, with
such Opportunities, might grow up a-uselul and in
dependent member of stately, is left to form habits
ot idleness, which embitter bis days and ruin all
his future prospect*.
Such an institution would giso tend to elevate
in theiscaic ot social life, the ooble work of tiding
the earth, which, in our country more almost than
any other, by a large class of iU-cducated perw'ns,
is looked upon with a sort of disrespect.
\Ve| hope, therefore, the suggestion of our cor
respondent may meqf with sufficient encourage
ment to result in a lasting benefit to the com
munity.
FROM CALIFORNIA.
The New York papers have further intelligence
from California, by the way of Chagrea, which we
are obliged to use in a considered form. A cor>
respondent ofthe New York Sun, who seems to be
a member of the California press, says that after an
absence of twenty-four days from San Franoisco, a
party to which be was ait ached, consisting of seven
- men ankl three boy*, returned with five hundred
and seMefity-eight ounces of gold, the proceeds of
their labor for that time. This party did not remain
longer at the mines bee anse of the increasing trade,
and the demand for the "Californian” newspaper
being so great that it sold for a dollar a copy, and
the editor thought he could do'as well with his
types in the settlements as' with his spade at the
mines. Speaking of the frauds practiced, he
says:
Report? of rich’placers in the hills are often cir
colalcd in drive “green horns” from the best placers
io the valley, so that the knowing ones can lake
their place*. Another trick ho* been played off
pretty extensive, selling iron and copper ore to ■
nfcw comers for genome gold* In fact, ol! sorts of
frauds, deceptions, Ucentioftsness and demoraliza
tion prevail at the mines. Outrages are numerous,
by vagrant whites a* well os Indian*. A govern- :
meat will be organized this month by the inSabi*
taxUs, unlesii efficiency prevails among Uncle Sam's
representative*.
The same authority say* of the productiveness
of the mines
I have said that Ihe tames are unlimited—-in ex
tent, I mean. There is undoubtedly a limit to their
productiveness, for three placers have already
been exhausted, and I do not believe that any
veins have been found in the mountains.
Yet, even in the washings, I think, there is a
'* thouscaitl vuUiutu of ew/Lsrs of yurt virgin gold'
Since Jane last, lour millions of dollars worth has
been washed out, nearly oue-dburth of which has
been paid to South Americans and English mer»
chants for merchandise and supplies sent here from
all “along shore.” A quarter of a million has gone
to the United Stales, and the remainder is* qow
coming down to be forwarded by the Cnited States
alhip Lexington, and other vessels, for New York.
The Lexington has nearly half a million on board.
Tbe captain is in some doubt* about the propiwty
of taking any more. Most of it is in fine dust and
thin flakes,anfl occasionally lumps of several pounds
weight are found. The largest lump we have beard
of weighed twenty-five pounds, but generally they
do not average more than seven or eight pounds.
Oregon is nearly'deserted by the Yankees. The
Sandwich Islands ditto. They aro oil here, to the
number of twelve thousand.
One af Col. Stevenson's men, G of Albany,
is reported to have got twenty-five thousaod doN
law’ worth of ore, and another from Brooklyn has
fifteen thousand. The merchants, however, are
gathering the largest share of this glorious harvest
Captain flatter is selling oft* his last crop at enor
mous advances. He is now engaging freight here
for New York on a large amount of ore, reported
at $120,000, on his own account.
, With such accounts by every arrival from the
Pacific, we cannot be surprised that our whole
country is excited, and looking anxiously towards
''California. In every quarter companies are form
ing, and individuals leaving for the modern Ophir.
The New' York Trae Sun, of January 24-,' says:
* Oa Saturday last there were forty eight vessels
advertised to leave this port for California. Since
that time, there has been an addition of several
vessels either announcedor soon to be announced,
. tor the regions of gold. On Monday, there sailed
for San Francisco the ship Pacific, TibbatU; barks
Hfiroilea, Baxter; and Mazeppa, Girdler. Each
of these took out a large number of passengers;'-'
the Pacific more than a hundred. The brig Geor
gians, Taylor, and schooner Olivia, Paolaon, sailed
on Saturday for San Francisco, and also the schr.
Ransom, with eight passengers for Cha
. gres. The barque Templeton, Stoner, soiled yea-
for Charges.
Accounts of newly acqnfred fortunes, through
the accident of beieg early on California ground,
are every where (n circulation. We have lately
been informed of the following, in addition to those
-we have already chronicled:
A gentleman by the name of Rifay, at present
in this city, has in his possession a certificate for
fi/HyBOO in gold dual deposited in the mint at New
Orleans.
Mr. Lippet, formerly teacher in the school of the
Brothers reugnet, m this city, end who went out
as a captain in the California regiment, has written
a letter, which, at his request, was read to the
scholars of the Messrs. Pougnet’s school* among
whom he was always n favorite. He states that
be is in excellent health, and will return in three
or six months with half n million of dollars in gold.
A merchant in Baltimore, who sent to California
a year ago, on a venture, $3,000 worth of old store
roods, has received the bill of lading from Son
Francisco for $30,000 ia gold dust.
The baying and fitting out of ships for the Paci
fic still continues. Three vessels were purchased
yesterday; oneof them, the Flavius, at $12,000.
Among others which have been recently bought
are the brig Selma, at $16,000; the barques Mallo
ry and J. A. Jcsurun, $lO,OOO, each, and the bark
NantilQS,s9,ooo.
Another corespondendeni of the same paper,
writing from Monterey says:
Every day has increased the intensity of excite
ment, afid developed more astounding treasures in
the valfeyaand mountains all through this region.—
The fact are absolutely more gorgeous than the
old alchemysts.
At n tow estimate, from three to five millions of
gold have been gathered within six months, and
the supply only grows richer and greater, the far
ther the search extends. And not only gold, bat
quicksilver and silver are found in satintory abund
ance. You can form no idea of the mineral
wealth, in the placers, from what has been dug
thus far, for only the commonest mesas have been
putfoith, there has been no science whatever ap
' plied to the work of mining. Hands, shovels, and
have unearthed tho yetiow ore up to this
tune; another season, when the appliances of art
va made use of) the revolution will be wonder*

RttOH WAIHIS6TOK.
Corretpondcnce of the Pittsburgh Gszeue.
Wx*hu»otos, Feb. 24, 1549.
From whai I hear this evening, L am induced to
think that on this day, after conference between
Gen. Taylor and Mr. Clayton, a tender of the office
Secretary of the Treasury was made to Hon.
Horace Binney, of Philadelphia, and that of the
head of the Navy Department to the Hon. Abbott
Lawrence, of Boston. It is the general impression
that Mr. Binuey will decline the offer of any seat
in the cabinet, and that, upon his declaration be
coming known, the offer now said to bq made to
him, will be laid before Mr. Lawrence. I *ay thu»
appears to be the general expectation, but 1 do not
concur in iL Under no circumstances likely to occur
during this administration, in ray opinion, will Mr
Lawrence be placed at the bead of the Treasury
Department.
i len. Taylor has reached town in a rather debili
tated state of health. He wi s copped on Thursday
at L'montown, and probably will-continue more or
leas indisposed until he shall gam a day or two
of rest.
• Most of the Senators whose terms commence
with tho special executive session on the 4lh of
March, are on the ground. Among others. 1 have
noticed Gen. Shields, of JIL; Gov. Whitcomb, of
Is_. Mr. Soule, of La., Mr. Cooper, Of Pa., i ruvernor
Seward, of N. Y. Two most distinguished among
these accessions to the superior branch of the Leg
islature, however, Mr. Clay and Mr. Cass, are un
Jeralood to be detained by illness. The former, 1
suppose, cannot be expected at the Executive ses
sion. Some of the enemies of Gen. Cass are un
charitable enough to conjecture that his unwilling •
ness to lake part in any legislative proceedings
while that troubelsome proviso is pending, has as
much to do with his detention as the influenza, un'
der which he is said to be suffermg. Gen. Shields
comes prepared to meet any objections that may be
urged to his eligibility on the threshold.
Affairs are approaching a point of much more
than usual interest in common at the close of a
Congress and of an administration. The House
to day—according to previous order—took up
the territorial bills reported some six weeks ago
from the proper committee, with the WLlraot Pro
viso attached —not by any Eoiian or harmonious
attachment. On Monday an effort will be made io
stop debate on those bills within one hour. U will
probably succeed, and then the bills will be passed
with the proviso ana sent to the Senate. In the
meantime the Senate with singular pertinacity, con.
Unues firmly to press the amendment to ibe Gen
eral Appropriation bill, by which a plan of govern
ment is tn be furnished for these same territories
at the discrettooof the President, and without the
proviso. The foie of the pending amendments to
this bill will be decided on Monday, I presume, un*
less some stroke of policy should be resol red on
by which it shall t>« kept from the House until the
eleventh hour, io order.to make more imminent,
the danger of losing the bill and heightening the
interest of the crisis. Sbould.all these incongruous
amendments be rejected, as I fervently hope they
will be, then the safety of this bill will no longer
continue a subject of solicitude. The House bill,
however, will surely coma before the Senate on or
before Wednesday. Then will come the struggle
which signalized the last days of the last session
on the Oregon bill, only it will be more desperate,
ami ! tear the chances will be more uneqaal for
the North, i trust every Senator will be in hm
place. It is said that Col Benton and Mr. Spruaace,
jf Del., ore prepared to vole lor the proviso rather
than defeat the only possibility that will remam for
conferring the blessings of organized Civil Gov
ernment upon California and New Mexico. It n
hardly possible that any Northern Senator will
dare to take contrary ground, if it thus becomes a
naked question between voting for the proviso that
free territory shall remain free, and the utter refu
sal of all government to those unfortunute por
tions of the Republic. But there are a hundred
chances upon any one of which the desired con
clusion may escape us. Southern Senators may
resolve to defeat the measures at any hazard. If sot
they can easily talk it to death, and I think they
are so thoroughly determined to defeat anything
like the proviso, that if it be found indispensable*
that course wfll be taken.

The discussion to day in the Senate was singu
larly offensive to Northern men. Io the first place
there was a man by the name of Walker, whom
the Legislature of Wisconsin has bad the fatuity
and folly to elect for n term of six years, in addition
to the ports of two session* that he has already mis
represented the Stale. He w from Virginia, and it
is quite manifest he ought to be “earned back”*—
He made a speech which fully sustain ed-tho posi-'
lion ho has taken by tha side of the amiable Foote,
lauded the South without stint for patriotism, «Sc<l,
and slandered the North in a corresponding de
gree os deserving disunion,.selfish, grasping and
unprincipled. _
Mr. Ruller said the North had no moral Muti
meat about (he territories, except the sentiment o
■making money out of them. As to the South bav.
tng held the chief honors of the government foi
fifty years out of sixty, it was because the suns o
the south were more worthy and deserving.
AGRICULTURE.
Pittsburgh, 'Feb. 26 t 1 $49
Mr. D. N. White
Dear Sir—Perceiving the interest taken by yoa,
in the efforts that are being made, to advance the
welfare of our Agricultural friends, by tho estab
lishment Of Societies throughout this country,
allow me, through you to call the attention of those
gentlemen to the establishment of 'Agricultural
Schools.’ The writer is not now, be regrets it, a
farmer, but, such is the interest taken, that he
would sabmit to any privations io order to afford
to his boya an edacation, based on ‘scientific’ prin
ciples, that would not only benefit them, but the
country at large. Why is u, that there is snch a
total njeglect of the true interests of the country, as
to overlook ‘scientific Agriculture r Why is it,
ihnj foeology, law, and physic have each their
several departments filled by the best talent of the
country and fostered by oor Legislature; but that
which is, in the opinion of the writer, the most
essential of all is utterly overlooked. Trusting
that in the wisdom of the membors of the above
named association*, some plan will be Adopted to
carry out the idea named, I shall leave the matter
with them, for their consideration. Respectfully
yours. FIDES.
APPLE TREE WORMS.
The nests of these caterpillars -ore very plenty
often in orchards, and producuve of injury, unless
timely measures are taken for their sxterminali.m.
Tint the leaves of the tree are n pees wry to the
perfection of the frmt, no one can doub!. and ex
perience shows that whea the tree is stripped ol
the foliage by the worm, ihe apples will be of little
comparative;value. On a twig, usually of the
same summer's growth, the moth or miller (hat is
the parent of the caterpillar infesting apple trees,
deposits us eggs in. regular order, in n mass of glu
tinous matter, and these egga are hatched by the
sun about the time that the (coder leaver of the ap
ple tree begin to pul forth. Scarcely are the little
insects out ol the comb, than -they are seen creep
ing about the branch, feeding on the young buds,
and os they gain strength, scokiog a suitable place
at some fork of the branches for a nest. Here they
commence apmmng.andtbetr track to the branches
on which they successively fred may be known by
a line of silken filaments on the upper side of the
branch. Their nests keeps pace with their increase
in size, and their voracity appears iosalioble.—
While the nights are cool, they descend the
branches to their acst, and.collect into a dense
mass; as they also do during reins, nod it is
when thus collected that their destruction is
easy.
The earlier the effort to destroy the caterpillar
is made, the more certaia it is the process will be
effectual After they have oUained u certain state
of maturity, they wander <recr the tree# at their
leisure; and when the tree on which they are
hatched, is disrobed, or does not suit their palates,
they migrate without difficulty to others. If taken
in season, an hour or tufa in the morning, for a few
days in succession, white the worms are in their
ousts, will destroy the whole. A long rod is all
that is required; if slightly splintered at the end so
much the better, (aome use a small brush at the ex •
Iremityj this applied to the nest and skilfully turn*
'ed round a few times, will wind up rite whole web,
and with it the worms, which are then destroyed
without difficulty. Some have recommended blow.;
ing them off and destroying their nests, with a gun
charged slightly with powder, but we have not
found it as easy and effectual as wibding them on
a rod. Sprinkling them with a brush dipped in
fay, or spirits of turpentine, will destroy oil the
liqnid touches; bat such fluid# will not penetrate a
thick web, unless thrown with considerable force,
and they are besides apt to injure tender buds and
leaves apon which they may fall. Independent of
the injury they occasion, there is nothing scarcely
more disgusting than myriads of caterpillars creep
ing over the trees, eating the foliage, and making
free with every tfoe who enters an qrebard where
they abound.- 3 itisbould be remembered also, that
by destroying a sUgle nest, with its inmates, we
destroy what might become, by the process of
transformation to the moth state, the parents of
miUionnofeaterpilUira, and in neighborhoods where
thewrrms are destroyed wherever they appear,
they become sp rare as to occasion little or no in*,
convenience Whatever. The ride, tbei, among
farmer* should be, for each one u> free his own or
chards, and at* while one is making laudable ef
forts to rid his trees of the pest, have bis neighbor
rearing a stock of caterpillars, which, when con
verted into the perfect insect, or moth, will, in a
few hours, undo all he has with so much care and
labor performed.
BCEOPEAS AFFAIRS.
The details of the foreign news, by the Euro pa,
have at length reached us mails. Every
thing of special importance has previously been
given by the telegraph, and we avail overselves of
the excellent review contained in the letter of ibe
London correspondent of the New York Commer
cial, to whom our readers are so often indebted for
a rare treat on foreign affairs:
Correspondent* of tin N. T. Ctmnurcial Advert uer.
London, Feb. 9, 1549.
Europe remains -n statu quo, and this packet
therefore will take out nothing in the way o/ re
markable events. A* regards real stir, however
that stir which, arising from hopeful feelings and
the natural desire of the mind for useful action, is
alone of any real advantage to mankind—there is
more to write about than on any occasion during
the past two years. The feeling of confidence is
universal, and as a consequence the funds have
again experienced a farther extraordinary rise.—
Legitimate business of all kinds is welcomed and
prosecuted with ardor. The tight of political par
ties at home is confined to the point how tar re
trenchment can safely be carried out, all being pro
fessedly united that retrenchment is the one thing
needful. The desire for jieace likewise i* pros
claimed on all sides. Specie continues to flow in
and moDey daily become* more abundant. Irish
distress is, of course, not extinguished, but where
the rebel clamor a year ir two back was raised
for eight million sterling, it i* now limited to XfiO,.
»00—an amount which, in connexion with Ireland,
i* so small as to make u* smile. In the mid6t of
all this, it i* true, the political map of the (fonlinent
is still far from a stnte of adjustment, and prosper
ity. either in Italy, France,or Austria, would almost
inevitably bring war, since it i* only from distress
.and exhaustion that they remain quiet in their pre
sent position. Experience, however, has shown
us that while the Anglo Saxon race remain wise
enough to avoid meddling iu any thing that may
happen, it i* impossible even for the wildest am
rJUals in the great continental menagerie to disturb
very seriously the progress of the world.
I oder these circumstances we may be consid.
ered to have returned once more to our old posi
tion as a steady nation of shop keepers. The brui
ses of recent speculation are still sufficiently ten
der to keep us out of follies, but every man in the
kingdom is looking out for business and ready, it it
can be shown to be safe, to embark in it to the ex
tent of his mean*. There is also a confused sort of
impression--and I think a very warrantable one—
that the Californian matter is the commencement of
a tide id the affairs of England aDU America which,
taken at the flood, will open, in one way or another,
opportunities for all who are possessed of enter
prize or industry. In the minds of those who look
beyond the moment, it is not o' course the mere
gold that is taken into consideration, but it* at
tractive effect in causing a rush to some of the
fairest and ino6t productive regions of the earth,
bringing us almost into, the neighborhood with
China and her reputed *2OO milhoas of inhabit
ants, and in revulutiociz.ng the existing routes
and modes of ocean navigation almoKt in every
quarter of the globe. The history of the Pacific,
at present confined to our school by romances
ot Captain Cook. Christian the muuneer, and Al
exander Selkirk, or in Inter days to Pritchard the
missionary, and King Kamehame of Hooo.ulu,
commences from this time, and it i* scarcely too
much to predict that before another reiteration
shall have passed away, its records will almost
rival, as regards the march of civilization, the
wonders that in slow countries have atrendv
been achieved across the waters of the Atlantic.
EUROPEAN POLITICS.
Having mentioned that there is no actua l alter
ation in the positiou of European affair* since my
lost lettfcr, a short return* ot snch general points as
require mention in connexion with them will
suffice, without any specific and separate notice ot
eacn country. The Pope m his }*owprlcss selt
exile is still paying the penalty of h;s lons of trust
and courage, and e* his people still uio-t provok
ingly abstain from any violence that might serve
a* on excuse tor putUog them down l>y lire and
sword, his friends the diplomatists are us much
puzzied as ever how to get him back again. On
the ‘23d of January, the elections for the Constitu
ent Assembly took place quietly, and the returns
were nil in favor of the fibers! parly. At Naples,
toe Chambers,' according to the last accounts, were
to be permitted to meet ou the Ist of February, by
desire of the King, as it u given out, against the
wish of hi- ministers. —a story which is doubtless
a mere fiction got up to rrpreseut.tbe 100 yielding
benevolence ol that blood-stained personage, who
together with hit cabinet knows well enough that
before long the inexperience and folly of the De
puties will furnish him with a preleit for iwrina*
nenlly crushing them, or that J this be not the cj»r
and they be rendered ineffective through lear.
he can men point to their uselessness and di-ttn-.-
them with derision or tolerQte them ns playtronc*.
la Sardinia sod Tuscany, on the other hand.(nr
liberal* yet hold power, and the aspiration* ot u.r
people are »ull directed toward the erpjiismn < t
the A antrum* and the formation of a Kingdom of
Italy. In opening the Sardinian Chamber* on the
Ist instant the King Charles Albert. r.fler exprv-s
-ing a hope that the mediation of France and Eng
land might altil secure the independence of Lom
bardy, boldly announced that if such should not be
the case he woa'prepared to ‘recommence the war.'
AUSTRIA.
Meanwhile Auatna is furnishing unequivocal
signs that she intends lo surrender nothing. Al
ready she has indicated that Venice, the only ooe
of her insurgent cit.es that has held out bravely
from the first, t* to be exposed to % renewed at-
. lack, and althoogh the war io Hungary is drawing
to a close she is said to Kaws mode to ner locust
like army an addition of 4fr,000 men. Coupled
with all this, the reign of rirder,’ in the words of
Conservative*, and the reign of terror in the plain
words of truth, i-.i still kept up by Marshal Wcldco
at Vienna, where executions and punisbmeuts ot
various kind* are still so relentlessly euforced its
lo have caused, it is said, horror and di»gv*t evmi
among the wretched adorer* of the Emperor and
hi* Court. —la Hungary also it may be feared that
barbarities are practised of the most desperate
description, and it is painful to know that Kossuth,
the leader of the Hungarians, and the eloquent
champion of independence, is now n fugitive, with
ibe apparent certainty of falling into the hand* of
hu thirsting executioner*- Possessed of a rinr
imagination and iong connected with the prc-i,
his doom in the bauds of WindiscbgraU would t>e
sufficiently sure even if he had been an humble
instead of a chief actor in the war. Driven to
DeirecziD and seeing scarcely the chance ot cisrape,
he is sold to have exclaimed to one of his lollow.
ers, ‘Suicide t* cowardly, but 1 trust soma Irendly
hand will (hoot me dead rather than let me fail
,nlo the hands of the enemy.'
With tnc military heel upon every neck, the
farce of the Austrian Diet i> nevertheless going on
at Kremsier. The function ol the Diet, it will l>e
remembered, was to tnicne a cnnsliiutiUon. Ghe
of its proposed clauses nvolved the ntxrlilion of
titles, and in the face of that fact the Emperor i*
reported to have signified to WindiscbgraU hi* in
tention to create him Duke ol Friedland, (the Ittfe
of Wallonstem, who was maiden <! by an uncc*i*>r
of the Emperor, and with one of whose descend
ants Wmdischgrulz allied himself'in marr.Hge.j mid
to Radetsky that he was lo be created Duke ot Cu*-
lozza. One of the measure* of the Diet, who op
pose, a* far as powerless men can, the Ministry
upon all points, bas been to abolish in all ..-ase* the
punishment of death, a beautiful instance, wbrn
takeo in connection with the similar step in Pru*«
uift, Italy, France und elsewhere,of the real impuls
es that are working at the bottom of all the modern
movements, and of the mutertai which the hearts
of the people in lha midst of their ignorant slrug
glcSjAQd excess nfford'for good,were it act the policy
of those tn power, tusiead of leading them in the
right direction, to fear them, torment them, and
crush them like poisoDou* vermm.
PRUSSIA.
From Prussia it appears that the elections are
not yet coucluded, but |it sterns ascertained
that the liberals will have a mnjority to the lower
and the conservatives in the upper house. A*
regard# the Central Government at Frankfort all m
again quiet: tbe attempt of the Assembly to induce
the King ol Prussia to assume tbe position of
Emperor being thwarted by tne want of courage
ol that mooaren to encounter tbe opposition of Au*
tu-to. There can be no doubt, however, that he
is perfectly ready for (he pear, could be persuade
himself that il is completely ripe.
DOMESTIC LEGISLATION—THE QUEEN'S
SPEECH—LORD PALMERSTON’S FOR
EIGN P< >.LICY.
The opening of Pnrliaineni l<»i>k place on the I st
instant, and the Queen'* spee-th intimated the satis*
faction of Her Majesty that a temporary suspension
of hostilities existed both in Schleswig Holstein and
in Lombardy. It said also dial France and England,
having stopped thu revolting hostilities in Suiily, are
endeavoring to negotiate With the King of Naples
an adjustment of the quarrel, and that the papers
regarding tbe entire transaction# would be laid be

rebellion still existing in the Punjaub. A recom-
mendation for the repeal ofthe navigation laws fob
lowed next- The duty of economy was subsequent
ly enforced, find an onuouncemeul given of a con
siderable reduction in tbe forthcoming estimates.
The continuance tor a hunted Ume of the restric
tive powers granted last summer to the Irish Vice*
roy was asked,aod an amendment oftbe Irish poor
laws suggested. Finally the revival of commerce,
the condition ofthe manufacturing di.#tricU,tbe pro
gressive improvement ofthe revenuc,und the order
ly couduct ofthe people were dwelt upon in terms
of congratulation.
The only point of great importaocewbich mark
ed in both house* the discussion ou this speech,
wn# the question as to the conduct of Loro Pal
merston as foreign Miuister. Lord Palmerston is
unquestionably tbe moat liberal statesman in the
Cabinet, and at all times end most especially in
revolutionary times be is a terrible stumbling block
iulhewnyofltie continental King#, Russia, Austria,
Bavaria, Naples, and oil tbe most reactiouary nod
despotic (towers would invariably, by ’the aid of
their troops, have every ihiug their own way with
their unhappy subject*, were ft not lbal Lord PaL
merstoa steps in most disagreeably and prevent#
their getting up the pretty alliances they would
frame for that purpose. lie does not interfere if he
can help it between on individual monarch and bm
subjecls,becaiise that of course would form a ground
oi'war and a plea for others to take part ia the
quarrel, and it is in fael in thus abstaining that he
contrives to obtain an argument for exercising bis
most valuable power. England, ho says, will not
interfere in theriomeslic convulsions of any nation,
and *1 the same time she triil not ailow auy other
yotcers to do to.
In this way tho Erajwror of Russia iti prevented
from helping his friend# the Emperor of Austria,
and both again are prevented from helping their
friend the King of Naples, and so the fine*} plots
of all the most sogneiou* diplomatists are constant
ly dikurhed and frustrated. Of course, however,
with the iulensity of conservative feeling which
always prevails ia England, together wtih those old
notions ol divine right and of the respectability of
the Holy Alliance of 1810, which are still constants
ly encouraged throughout the country by the Minis
ters of the Established Church, such a course as
that I have described cannot be pursued by any
statesman without danger. AU the ambassadors
of the leading courts too, who are best able to io*
fiuence the cringing busy bodies of fashionable,
political, naval and military life, are of coarse inces
santly occupied io stirring up hatred against him
who stands to Ibe way of their respective masters,
and it is therefore probable that the Ministers of
France and the Untied Slates are the only allies
—the former from policy andithe latter from tmi
cerity—that Lord Palmerston ever can coUDt
upon. .' ®
Hence, towards the approach of every session
rumor spreads far and wide that Lord Palmerston
is about to be denounced, impeached, and annihi
lated. The press influenced probably by the gen
eral cry and also by the secret combination always
at work, join almost without exception m the out
burst; chhrgcs of every kind are preferred, the
public become convinced that earth might be a
paradise and Kings guardian angels but for Lord
Palmerston'a lovj of meddling and of hot water,
and ail parties would believe that there was not
the slightest chance that the delinquent could re
tain office for four and twenty hours after the
opening of the session. Those who have watched
him, however, know well enough what will be the
end of it He goes down to the House, the wolves
set Upon binj, he puts his back to the wall and in
a playful speech of an hour or two, delivered with
aa much ease as if he was talking in a drawing
room, sends them all howling. The next day pa
persare silent. It is some month* before ho is attack*
ed agam-agaia perhaps indeed be is spared during
the remainder of the session—but when the recent
lakes place thru the work recommences and goes
on swimmingly until it again bursts up in another
impeachment.
This wus the case on the present occasion. Ho
was accused, amidst a crowd of other crimes, of
offending Austria and Naples by his officious
mediations between thone jiowerß and their re
volted subjects in Lombardy and Sicily. He
showed that in both cases the mediation was un
dertaken solely at the earnest entreaty of the re
spective monarch*, before the reactionary success
es had set in, aim when they were in a fright as
to their own position. He likewise showed that
no terms were ever attempted to be dictated and
that nothing was done except in entire accordance
with the solicitation* in question. The interference
of the British in conjunction with the French fleet,
to stop the butcheries carried on by the Neapoli
tans at Mensina, was, however, a high offence for
which he coaid not plead the request of the King
of Naples. But he was prepared with an answer.
The bombardment and the demoniacal murders
and outrage* on men. women and children at
Mrssjnn, were earned on for forty eight hours alter
the town hnd lapitulalcd, and the admirals, at !a*t
homfivd be.yona endurance, interfered on their
own responsibility. Lord Palmerston justified
them in that course—and in avowing this to sleek
conservative opponent* be uttered a reproach that
will live against them- The admirals,’ he said,
'although men accustomed to scenes ol war. were
still accustomed only tn war earned on according
to the practice of cviiized notion*. What were
tho irovernments of England and France lo do in
n ca»e of tho sort 1 Was it littiug that civilians
sitting in their comfortable home*—men who had
never seen a shot fired or blood shed in the field—
was it fitting that they should be sterner than those
admirals, accustomed to all the horrors that are
considered lo belong to ordinary wars?’ Of course,
there was no answering this, and as. alter the
same fashion, he went on until be had demolished
all else tbul had been brought against him, loud
and general cheer* marked hi* triumph nt the
conclusion, and- the subsequent vote in favor of
Minister* was ‘221 to bQ.
Among other advantages ol the present session
we may sec some little diminution m
the system, had of late becomo mtolera
bie.. of tnembeifg making interminable speeches
without «ay pßustical object, several new roles
having been minted for the dispatch of business,
and the newspjfaers having intimated that ora
tory who exceep* a reasonable Ume will stand a
chance ot rindiqg* their speeches not rej»ortcd. A
sort of tacif understanding seems also to have
been come : to, that an hour should be the ex
treme limit io ail cases—except when a member
bring* forward an original motion, or a Minister of
the Crown speaks in reply—although a tnoliou
to adopt this system a* an absolute rule was re
jected by n majority of 9*j to fi2

As l was returning bock to where the women
and children belonging to ear camp were stationed,
under charge of some half dozen of our men who
had hot participated in the affray, for the purpose
of procnnngisomelhißg in the shape cf a hone or

a female shriek, and, on locking suddenly up, bad

of the bntialo robe on which he was riding brushing
me in the face. He hnd one of oar women l«cfore

and making vain and ineffectual endeavors to free

poor girl, when, at the distance of about a mite, at
a point or eibow formed by n sodden turn of the
river, l di*cdvere«J one of oar men dashing a; full
speed, for the purpose, apparently, of intercepting
the Black foci before he could gain the Madison at
the only available point where he coaid cross over
and join the.resl of hi* tribe. It was a moment of
intense and even agonizing interest to me, for
this woman- was, and deservedly, a very great
favorite wilh'us aIL Bhe was the sqnaw of Jack
Robinson, ode of our very best men, and had en
deared herself to the whole camp by her intelli
gence, kmdriess of heart, and native feminine deli
cacy of feelHjg, U> say nothing of her good look*,
which were nenrly of the very highest type of In
dioa beauty.
On ultenlijvely observing the horseman, who
had ail at once l>ecome an object of absorbing iu*
trrest, the hopes which hud been fast waning
within me, ((prong into instant and vigorous life,
for tn that tig'll re moving with the ease and velo
city of the wind, I saw one whose very name has
since becorlife the synonym of desperata adven
lure, and rofoantio coo rage. Thiv was my bosom [
friend, Kit UhrsoD, who was mounted on a superb !
blooded hors.’ —which had been presented to him i
some two years previous, by Sir William Drum- ;
round Sicw4/i —with ai* head guiltless of n hat—a ■
fillet being simply bound around it —his long, light '
brown or nqboru hair streaming in the wind, his '
slight but ijju-oular iunn, awayiog and bending l
with taimiUkfte grace, to every motion of the noble ;
aiimal, as it jlew rather thau dashed over the un- ’
dulating uruirle that intervened between bun and j
the. Indian "Chief, increasing at every l>ound the I
chances of a-iretcue.and being seemingly conscious j
of (he iniintt* importance of its present exertions I
The Blacktxit, who had quickly seen the hunter,
and divined: bis intention to cut him off from (ho
point abovelreferred to, made the most intense
exertions to Accomplish hi* purp-se. But Carson
waa too quick for him. They were about twenty
yards apart jtvben the latter discharged hii gun,
bn| apparently with little effect, as the former did
not awerve ijom hi* course tn the slightest degree.
They were haw within a hundred yorda of the
spot, whore U uarrow and sleep buffalo track form
ed Ibe only practicable descent to the river Madi
son, when Ciarson, who had hitherto carried bis
nda in the {follow of his left arm, brought it and*
denly roundrto hi* shoulder, and fired. 1 knew
that the shatfood taken effect, a* I could perceive
the Indian fjraigbten himself tn the saddle, and
in ibe next tgomuut his knife was gleaming aloft,
and descended upon the form of bis helpless cap
tive. Both till heavily to the earth, and the b<t*«
of the Black&ot Chief, freed from its double bur
deg, lioundcH wildly forward, und disappeared
down the siebp and rugged pass which its master
had striven rn vain to reach.
ft wan Ufa work of a moment for Carson to
spring from-jlit# horse, and disengage the woman
from the deiith grasp of the savage. She wo*
badly but m# mortally wounded, the knife ofthe
savage having struck upon the bone ot the fleshy
part or the ftijn,from which it glanced and passed
entirely through, inflicting an ugly bu tool danger
ous wound |pon her side. W,th (bo assistance
of some of ot|r men who arrived immediately alter
this fortuoatdS termination ofthe yonfiict, Kn car*
ned Ihe peak girl to the camp, Where she was
givdn ia cbolge to the women who always act
a# stirgeoa# fin sqch occasions, who incontinently
dressed her founds, and made her as comfortable
os the circutflgtancq# of the caao would admit of.
The contact of the Indian woman ou this
tryiflg occasion was so characteristic, nnd at the
satrtk time* ho dissimilar to that which would
like, ia all probability have been displayed in n
situation by a civilised woman, that it is worthy
of''remark those curious in human nature
From the tints she was snatched from her horse
until she way relieved from her perilous position
by tbe heroic-nnd timely inter/erence of Kit Car
*oc, the Indian girl had given but one scream,
which was produced more by surprise than fear,
and from thui instant silently submitted to her fate,
wfifi tbe qfliet determination, however to avail
herself of &iiy posible means of escape that chance
or accident ;fiiight present When Kit overtook
her and for some time hesitated about
firing, injuring her whom he had come to
save, she regdiutely told him to shoot, and never to
mind her; aftil wben tho Blockfoot raised bis knife,
it was only by quickly shifting her position that
she avoideiLreceivmg the weapon m her breast,
where the bfaw would doubtless havo been mortal.
Her positiofi aod conduct can only bo properly
appreciatedjrwhen we reflect that she was men

the rioa. John M. Clayton, of Delaware, will be
appointed Secretary of State by President Taylor,
we may be allowed to congratulate the friends of
the in coming Administration, that the most impor

Mr. Clayton, as a member of the Senate of the

the nation. By his whole course m that body he
has won the admiration and regard ooi only of bis
own entire party but of all such of his political op
poaents as can appreciate high intellect, powerful
eloquence, sound judgment, and fervent love of
country. He is one of the best men and one of the
safest, strongest, and most far seeing and practical
statesmen now living in this great republic.
The selection of Mr. Clayton tor the Secretary

The undersigned respectfully protest against a

the Democratic party. And we also protest against
a false issue being raised, as we believe, the only
great and vital question is the ‘Ten Hour Law.'
Great, os it involves the interests of our country
and of humanity, vital, aj the happiness of children
aud their lives are m the issue.—When the people
meet together and speak for themselves, we shall
be content wuh their decision.—lf the Ten Hour
Law is not a Democratic measure, then we have
been fooled to the top of our bent,’ and we will
consent to learn it irom none but the people them
selves. At the next Democratic County Conven
tion, we ask that this question shall be submitted
and settled. In the mean tune we beg the public
to believe that officious dictation is nor always the
voice of the Democracy.
If the object of the card in yesterday’s Journal
is to consummale, by annihilation, the crusade
