Wiatiisqtox, April 2. IS4&
: Since Mr. Hampton left for homjEi,lbave U*t
sight of that particular clou trf political Intelbgeffce
inleresling to the people ofPiUaburgb. It is flailed
m tlis newspapers, that a nomination has been
made, or rattier an appointment of c|»y post master.
If it be true, of course your townsmen will hove
been promptly acquainted of the &ct in tbe most
autijenlic form, by the gentleman*. hiin>eiC But
unless you have that evidence, or some other than
a report,! advise you at oue* W set
down the report as an invention of a man who is
to send news whether it be, good-or bad, true or
false. You know that new? is very often like
patent razors—made to sell, and to the cant phrase,
peoplcjwho take it usually find themselves “sold ”
The reeeot telegraphic reports of the Newport
Heraid often remind me of the reasoning qfrthe
veteran, able, and pleasant correspondent bf the
New York Journal of Commerce, upon the morale
of Washington correspondence. A bona fide ap.
poinlmenf. says bo, is worth $2. because m these
dry umnsone can make a letter out of it, which is
)rth that, at the lowest. But a contradiction is
worth s3—Why? Because readers are just as
milch interested io the contradiction as in the
affirmation,and a great many more people
are gratified with the disappointment than with
the appointment of any named person. For not
only the incumbent and his friends, but all rival
applicants and their friends rejoice to knQtf that
the rtimored sQCceta of a candidate is unfounded.
)( a good whig shall have been appointed td
tnsuage the Post Office ot the Irou City, l shall
upon it as a happy omen of a “good time
coming,” for though I am the mildest of men, 1 do
tdng to see the poisoned chalice of their own bitte p
political malignity returned to the lips, and if. need
be, turned down the throats of that portion of
the democracy which, has been for
fattening on the spoils or the vanquished.. Old
iHiekory was in many respects, a great mah, but
of ail the political’rascalities which originated in
j his administration, and have come dowu‘- Ip our
own times, this of excluding people ot qpposite
political opinions to those of the administration,
from office, is the most villainous. Therefore I am
disposed to say, that justice and policy boih require ,
that the great body of incumbents of office on
March 4th, 1549, should be sent tracking. Let the
state el patroange be for the time tabula rasa, and
lei the vacancies be tilled up from all classes of
people, from all portie*, and acoording to the only
just rule of fitness—capacity, fidelity to the cons
slitution. Under this rule, some ol the present
officials might be restored, and a few of the nrve
Tangled democracy ol ISI4 and ISIS not yet ap
pointed. would receive employment; but they
would be very tew indeed, not nearly so numerous
ha the whigs who would be introduced into the
pnblic service. I have suggested a general role.
There would be many exceptions to the generality
of the sweep which I would recommend. In

It has been noticed as another alarming diplo
matic symptom that the Baron Von Roenae. nmu*-
ler from Germany, was not present at a dinner
given by Bodueo,io the diplomatic corps at Wash
ington, on the birth day of Nicholas, hi* imperial
lani and master. Some say that the Baron bad
no invitation; others, that he refused one oo ac
count of tfeoefative political position of Germany
and Russia; wbfie others “likely to be well in

away “on account of the woolher, - ’ the bad stiue

Pxunuro Stoss Prott Teres.—U bos been but
a few years since the cultivators offeuit have been
in the habit of pruning peach trees at the extremi
ties oflhe branches, Instead of cutung off limbs at
the trunk. This system ofshortening-io, as it is
called, is gaining ground, and it is a great improve
ment The reasons far this mode of pruning are
evident on examination. Most kinds of stone fruit
grow;rapidly, and bear the greater part oftheir frail
on new wood, which is, of course, near the ends of
the limbs. In this way a tree spreads over much
land, and his naked branches near the trunk; and
pnraingottbo'trunk causes tb? gum tot ooce out,
which sometimes endangers the healthoflifepfthe

interesting letter from Captain Fouoat, of the Quar
ter Master General 1 * Department, in California, to
Major General Jessup. The letter w dated, “San
Francisco, California, Jan. 23, lSi9,” which is the
latest authentic intelligence which has been re»
ceived.
Capt. Folsom state*, that during the winter, mnch
has been said and done in regard to organizing a
provisional Government. Several villages have
appointed their delegates to a Convention, which
was to meet, March 4tb,at Pueblo de San Jose,
about sixty miles from San Francisco. He thinks
nothing will be done, however, at that lime, nor
until it is known what Congress has done for
them. The want of a stable Govern
ment is greatly felt. He says that a general feel
ing of insecurity depresses the whole population,
and operates most injuriously upon all classes of
society. Crowds of men are ducking from all
quarters of the country, and among them are many
persons of bad character and desperate fortunes;
and every thing about them affords a reasonable
assurance that every kihd of villany may be prac
ticed with impunity throughout the territory, ‘bit
rages are occurring ia all quarters of tho country,
and the public astonishment has seweely subsided
after one murder has transpired l*efore another is
committed more horrible than the first. House
breaking, thefts, tyid robberies are of almost hourly
occurence. This stale of things must continue
until we have ibe firm and steady rein of govern
ment extended over the territory by Congress.
In regard to a provisional .Government, Capt.
Folsom remark.--:
“I have no expectation that a provisional gov
ernment (should it go into operation, and this,
cannot be the case in less than a year from this
Ume) would be found adequate to the public wants.
The materials for organizing a stable government
do not exist in the country at this time, and of such
,j there are tho best cannot be commanded lor the
business. The most respectable men. who are en
gaged in lucrative enterprises m the country quite
foreign to politics, wit! not desert their own inter
ests to take public stations which promise to yield
little but vexnlion and annoyance, and. should
the local organization go into operation, 1 very
much doubt if it will produce any relief lor the ills
which now afflict the country. It will be tempo
rary ia its nature, and, having no permanent hold
upon the community, it will be only a little better
than no government at nil "
The following extracts contain all the news in
teresting in this quarter.
“Within the lost five or six weeks we have hail
weather of extraordinary severity. It in said to
be the coldest season experidncegOiere since that
of 1523-'24. In the gold has been
four feet deep, and at Sutter’s Fort ice has formed
three inches in thickness. Within two weeks the
.•greets of this village have been rqieaiedly whi

fifteen days. Very heavy and protracted fall* of

a tale of the oahcasus*
BT JAXKS M. nSKUO.
Almost every packet which, by the aid af sail
ot steam, has crossed the Atlantic for the last
twenty years, has brought ns acme moor nfcou»
teats and defeats in (he depths of the greet Caucas
ian range. Turkey, by the Treaty of Admnople
in 1829, ceded to Russia her claims over the preci
pices, the defiling streams, the rock-bmlt villages,
the green homesteads nestling among the snow clad
hills, the porphyry pinnacles, the tlowery-strewn
forest— among which dwell the Ctrcasians, and
Georgians, as we smoothly call them, the Tcher»
kesses aud Tschetsbena, os they roughly name
themselves. Turkey's claims over this mighty
mountain land were something like those of the
Iroquois over the great valley of the Ohio, which
England purchased in l~'is at the treaty of Fort
SlflDwig : soinew hat like those which any men has
npon his'neighbor's farm, which at times he visits
as a friend, and trom which at times be steals ap*
pies and eggs. England, or her offspring and rsp
resentaiuv, •*ti»e t'lale*," enforced her claim suc
cessfully, hut Russia lias had —not a Kentucky, an
Ohio, an Indiania to overrun; but a country bristling
with peaks, some higher than Mount Blanc; cat
and hacked into fragments by narrow, deep, rock
sided valleys; and swarming with a population as
courageous, as agile, as quick thoughted, as full of
bole lor tfie toe, as Ponuac or Tecumth»\ Nor
were the Caucasians wanting in heroes, natural
leaders Philip*., Abd-el-Kadirr. The hero of our
day, and the man who, with the great African war
rior ol our day, represents the age of rhivairy, is
Chamyl, a native of the steppes of Perok.
His youth was the common youth of a Tshelseo
warrior- His, tluui-a of Caucosaian sabre, bis
horse, his Koran, (for they are all Moslem ) and
now and Then the flashing eyes of some maid of the
mountains, were the only things be thought of At
length the story crept among the hills that the sons
and daughters of the snow, as the mountaineers
are called by the shepherds of the plains, had been
sold to the Muscovite. Ere long these faint tales
swelled into certainty, and the children of those
who had fought the wool clad men of Ibt- north
under Sheik Mansour in HOd, now found those
same eorsacks advancing to take possession of their
vales.
Then rose Chasi-Mollah. and called his country

And .t was time, for the Russian general* at
Till,* nad hoard that the arch-rebel was fortifying
anu ,lor.eg a castle among the hills, nnd orders
had already gone fortn to gather troop* and c-nn.<o
lor ti* reduction. By great exertions Chamyl, by
June of ls:i9 coropieted his preparations. and
wtien ' *en Grnbbe, who came lo dutch him on
his cvne, sat down before it with his mortars, his
congreve rockets, and heavy hattenng cannou. the
Eagle of thr Cuucasus laughed him to scorn. The
great object ot the Russian* was to kit! or secure
the Tshetshen leader, the soul of revolt —and they
I hoped by destroying tho defences and the huts on
I the bill, to lead to a surrender. Bombs- and bails
1 soon effected their object; the stone hula, the rock*
I bubt parapets were blown away, or l>eateo into

Tshei'cns could now dciend themseive- when
balls nnd shells could not reach them. The plan
nf n mine was considered again, and at b ugth un-
JerUkeu.
Meunwhile Chauiyl drew his loilua rrs, men
and women, together, that they 'might i.msult, as
to the wiMJMt course to be pursued in rs«e the
Russians sliould enter their last drfenurs. It was
known that caverns existed on the mdriof the wall
toward the river, and somd of the older I'ouncillors
proposeil that the great chief who-u life wna so es
sential to the cause of Ins country should, with bn
wife and a few followers take refuge m them
until some chance of escape might occur. Unwih
hngly Chauiyl consented; and ropeg were |>repared
by which to lowet the selected few,‘in case of
need, to their strange hiding boles. In anticipation
. ut' such need, provisions and arms were «eot down
by uight. and every preparation made that could
be thought of.
The day of need came sooner than was looked
for Borne of the curions and foolish of the gar
rison ventured from tbeir defences to inspect (he
!tu*Mau miners who were at work below. Thoy
were attacked; surprised, they tied; the Russians,
burning with revenge, followed close behind them,
and tbe pursuers and pursued entered the strong
bold together. Tbo garrison, taken wholly una
ware, was thrown into confusion, tho Russians
swarraod upon tbe undefended pathway; the Cau
casians, men and women, fought like those that
have no fear of'death; bat their haired was cqaaL
led by that oflhe troops they had slain by thousands,
and in an hour not a liviug Georgian breathed on
tbe surface of the rook of Aculcho.
Thai <**rq« the examination of the dead. There
were thowaißong the Russians wiw knew Chamyi; '
ooc, fftiesefter-irotn-hislriutd. Every corpse wax
looked st in topes it was that of the renowned lea
der, every canty on the-surface was searched;
but pryed into;—bat Chamyl was not
there; Minima, his young wills, was not there; many
of his most renowned followers were not there. It
was plain to the Russian commandant that bis three
thousand men had fallen in vain, that the Eagle had
escaped him Bat how* where 1 The rock was
girdled by the battalions of the Czar; the river book
opposite was lined with them; it seemed that, like
an eagle, indeed, he most have mode the air his
pathway. While themortilied <?enera! still mo-ed,
a shoot arose from beyond the river: the dwellers
in the raves bad been seen, and «onjibe news pass*
ed from rank to rank that Chamyl wouid yet he
taken. But bow* One way alone offered itself—
men mutt be lowered from the cliff above, and this
hanging in the air, attack the fugitives; who, as the
Russians supposed, must be without ammunition,
and probably without arms. The ropes were soon
procured, the attackers selected; and the army stood
hr. athlejs as they swung slowly downward, holding
Uieir gunsready Jo discharge. Chamyl smiled as
be saw them, and looked at the keg of powder by
his side. The Russians came to the level ot the
caverns, and cooly aiming into the balfdarkness
discharged each his piece. Some moans told that
the discharge bad not failed. But why does no
return fire cause the bold assailant* to die as they
swing there* Alas! ihe uuhappy fugitives have
found that their powder is all spoiled by the damp*
newofthe rock on which it hah rested. Not a mus
ket wouid doits duty —-defence is hopeless: Cbamyl
at last must die.
At that moment, when the boldest heart failed
and the wisest minds were at a loss, Mirzima, who
has been so ready to die with him she loved, step,
ped forward. ‘'Chamyl muff be saved,” she said,
“we will die”—“Bat how save him*”
‘“Defend this cave with your sabres till these
planks which were lowered hither tor my bed and
screen can be lashed into a rail. When ihe Russi-
ans for a time, at Dight, erase their utlacks lower the
raft into the river —at night let us all, but my lord,
place ourselves thereon. My dress is known to
the enemy; if I am seen in your midst, they will be
sure Chamyl is there. Thev will follow us; they
will cease to watch here. Weihall die, mv lord
will live.” * .
“For a long time the hero refused in listen ti> the
proposal of his young wife, whose noble nature had
won all of his young heart that hnd not been given
to his country and bis religion. But she could oot
be saved even by his death; and the faith of Islam
was to l»e saved only by bis life. He consented to
the sacrifice.
For lour hours the lilile band of warriors had
defended them*elves against thicr mid-air assail
ants. The canlest ceased with ntghl; but sentinels
were stationed along the river to watch every mo
uoo. It was bright moonlight. The raft was seen
to descend; then figure ofter figure. The Russians
remained silent until the frail vessel swung off
with iis devoted Then rose the cry of the
Comack* ns they spurred to the nver side; the
drums of the infantry pealed from the shores; and
horse and loot pressed along the bank to secure
the chief of the rebel*. The head dress of bis wile
was already recognised and every heart beat high.
Mirzima stood with her eyes fixed upon the cav
ern they had left. And now those ou the raft ore
summoned they refuse. A second sum
mons, a second refusal. The word to fire is given,
and as the slight lashing yield to the cutting balls,
and warriors fail arouod her, she sees dimly a form
glide from that cavern in Acutcho to the river. A
niomeut more und the lead sinks, into her breast;
but she smiles in deals, for Cbamyl has escaped
and Aculcho ha* fallen tn vain.
