Later from Metamoras—Rettorted Es.. l tape of the Texan Prisoners.—The New Orleans Picayune of March 2d, says the aehr. Emblem, Capt. Kinney, arrived at that city on the Ist inst. from Metamoras, which port she left on the 19th orFebrua ry. The Captain reports that on the 22d, white laying of the bar waiting for a pilot, news came that the prisoners who were captured at Mier, with Col. Fisher) had `risen upon their guard at Saltillo, overpow ered them after a short struggle, and start ed in hot haste for Texas. Frain Saltillo to the Rio Grande there is a direct road,l and titeiCol. Jordan once made a successful eseapefroin near the same point with a less number of men, it is mote than prob able that Fisher's men will be able to do the same thing. provided they were able 710 seeute a sufficiency of arms and ammu- Vidon to fight their way through. We are fearful, however, so many false . 'reports are started and circulated in Mex ico. that the attempt to escape was not anale, although there is much to confirm ea in the opinion that the brave followers a Col. Fisher are ag lin at liberty. In confirmation, it is reported that Col. Kin .ney,- who was about taking passage for the • ittrited States, had been arrested after the mblem left.

"We have seen a Darker night than this."—From published statements of the condition of the country during the years from 1818 to 1823, we find that we are now enjoying 'good times' now compared with.then. It is a hiatoi ical fact, says the Philadelphia Chronicle, that in one season of the year, 1819, there were ten thousand able-bodied men in New Yolk, daily seek. ing for employment, or, adding the w 0.., men, twenty thousand persons who de• sired something to do. in Philadelphia, twenty thousand persons were ire the like condition; and in Baltimore, ten thousand were in unsteady employment, Let it be remembered, too, that the cities were not at that time half as populous es they are now, so that for the present distress to equal the past. it must yet increase con. siderably. Neither is the fall of prices now near 205 great as they wete then, nor has the value of real estate deprecia ted to any thing like the same uextent. Sit Honor to Ireland—The Slave Traf- I fic.— An Englishman, Sir John .Hawkins, in 1762, was the first of his countrymen who sent ships to the African coast to catch negroes. He was folowed by ma ny other British tnerchants, who amassed great wealth in the tratfi t., an 1, 1700, the mania spreading into lrela . l-2,. a meeting was called at Belfast to organ . .ze a Com I • pany for prosecuting the accursed trade.— i After the meeting had m Itured its plans; and jest as the writings were about to he signed,one of the number who had hitherto been a silent sp nor of the proceedings, stood up, and i• 1 a tone of s - dem.' decision, and with the strongest emphasis said 'may the hand that first signs papers for this infernal traffic, be blasted by the God ofjastice —the God of , the black as well as the whit'e ;mut.' The meeting dispersed withoutsigning the papers, and never as. sembled again. ./2 Flirtation after all. —lt is said that the recent cow-hiding affair in Boston was brought about by the girl herself; as she first set the 'Professor' the example, and that he only served her the same sauce which . she had preferred to the lips of an— other.

Heirrisburg Correspondence. HAZIWISURON, March 14, 1843. Gentlemen: Since I last wrote, the Bill to district the State into congressional Districts, has m ourned a great many shapes. It has pas,. sed and repassed from one branch of the Legislature to the other no lesethan four times, and each time it has presented a dif• ferent phase. The House, on yesterday, adopted a Bill which, with one or two ex ception 4, was teported by Mr. Bra wley— this was an amendment, according to the rules, to the Senate amendment. Well, this amendment was acted upon by the Senate and rejected. To day, the Bill was sent back to the House, with an amendment by the Senate. The question will come tp on to-morrow OD this second Senate amend ment. Whether it will be adopted or not, I am unable to atty. In the House, this morning, the "Reform Bill," as it is usually termed, was under consideration—or rather this Bill was made the pretext for a discussion in which some of the members abused each other most outrageously. The utmost latitude was allowed in the debate—crimination and re.• crimination followed in quick succession, and it was supposed that another commit. tee would be necessary to settle "a difficul ty" between two gentlemen who evinced a most pugnacious disposition. However the affair passed off in a "war of words." In the afternoon, a paper addressed to the speaker, was got up and signed by mem• bers, witting that in case better order was not kept, they would he bound in hon - or to resign an,! go home. Mr. Elton of Chester first started it, and I understand that it has been already signed by fifty six members! Mr. E. intends, I have been told, to present it to-morrow in a public manner to the speaker. The "reform bill" did not, as a matter of course, when gentlemen were so intently engaged in vilifying each other, make much progress. Mr. Lowry's amendment, to re• duce the salaries of all parties, is yet pend. in 4. The original bill merely refers to the contingent expenses of the two Houses of the Legislature, whielt it limits. The ar gument used by those °posed to the amend' \ meat is that it is only intended to clog the bill , and defeat its passage in the Senate. There have been a great many private bills' passed within a few days. The afternoon I sessions are appropriated exclusively to their consideration. I understlnd that a new paper, to he styl ed the "Harrishurgh:Arva," will make its app •arance in a few day.. What c. , urse it will take on the Presidential Question, I cannot say. It is stated however that it will not commit itself in favor of any one of the candidate', particularly, but wiil an it the decision of the National Convention.

It commenced at ten o'clock in the morning, whilst the inhabitants were at breakfast, and in a few seconds every house and building was prostrate. The less of life was immense—of 21,000 inhabi tants only one-third escaped. The Amer ican Consul was buried in the ruins, and dug out with both legs shockingly ii,jured; he underwent an amputation, but died im• mediately after. 400 hundred bodies had been taken from the ruins and carried out to sea to prevent a pestilence. Of a regi ment of schliers 800 strong, 70 only left alive. Mr. Ridgely, a comedian from Philadel phia, with his son, made an extremely nar. row escape—unharmed—by springing from a window. The massive fortifications were a heap of ruins, and the mouth of the harbor was completely - choked up by rocks forced from the bottom of the sea: It was feared that the vessels in port would never be got out. At St. Bart's, the church and several other buildings were thrown down, and the earth opened in the centre of a street to the width of a foot, the fissure extend ing 600 yards'in length. Only ten lives were lost at Atigua, al though almost every building in St. John's was thrown down. ' At St. Eustatia, the damage was con& ned mainly to buiidings, some being very badly injured. At St. Christopher's, several (Atha pub lic buildings were utterly destroyed. On ly one person lost her life, bat some others were badly hurt. At Nevis and St. B 'rah alornew's, the earth opened and water with a sulphurous smell issued from the crevices: Nothing further has been heard from Monsterrat. When last seen the island was enveloped in a dense cloud of smoke or dust. The sea around was violently agitated. At St. Vincent the shock was felt but slightly. The eovernment of Guadeloupe had declared Point Petre under martial law, and directed the search of all vessels to find stolen property. The search had. however.proved fruitless. All the cargoes landed from American vessels were de stroyed. • Mr. Tan Buren in the Suuth.—The Raleigh Standard, the ab!e Democratic or gan at the seat of Governmont, of North Carolina, places the name of Mr. Van Bu ren, at the head of its columns, as its can didate for the presidency, subject to the de. cision of a national convention, and says: "We inay here observe, that the pr,fer ence for Mr. Van Buren does not imply a less respect and esteem for Mr. Calhoun. But many of our friends believe that Mr. Van Buren has fallen while manfully con tetiding for southern rights, and that he was peculiarly the victim of falsehood. We suppose no man ever lived against whom -so many falsehoods, of so absurd a charac ter; were uttered and believed. Many who opposed him will come to his support; because they believe him. to be a slandered and injured man, and the triumph of truth over falsehood requires it." drew Wholesale Cash store IN PITTSBURGH.
