Interesting from Washington. "Washington, June 13, 1857. General .Walker had an interview with the President last evening. He announced LiinsWf a citi zen of Nicaragua, and complained of the illegal and hostile interference of Capt. Da vis against him. An investigation into the facts will be ordered. The conversation. was general and informal. Gen. "Walker has con cluded to remain here till to-morrow after noon, and will reach New York on Monday morning. Capt. Fayssoux, one of General Walker's staff, who was a midshipman in the Texrs navy, applied at the Navy Department today for his allowance of Uncle Sam's cash : but the draft was not honored ; as he was never commissioned, and the law includes only " officers holding regular commissions." The llussian government has signified its readinoss to act in concert with the British 'government in China in all matters except its quarrel at Canton. The offer has been ac cepted. 'The Minnesota has been ordered to set sail on the 25th inst., as Mr. Touccy now con fers it importaut to make an early demon stration before Canton.' The Water Witch arrived to-day, with the crew and guns for the Plymouth. The statement that the Chincha Islands are to be pi iced under the protectorate of Eng land and France is untrue, as England has disavowed the treaty made in its name. The War, Department learns that there are but ono hundred and fifty Seminole warriors under Hilly Bowlegs in Florida, opposed to whom we have a regiment of men. The Navv Department decides that Gen. Houston had no power to dismiss Com. Moore from the Texas navy, and allows him Lis pay under the act of Congress. President Buchanan appeared on the pub lic grounds this afternoou , and was soon Fur rounded by the ladies, one of whom openly expressed to him her regrets at being mar ried. A Painful Scene. Blkninq of a Moth er and her Child. A sad affair occurred in the town of Alloppo, near Stcubcnville, Ohio, not long since. Mr. Peter Lyons, who . resided in a somewhat secluded locality, went out on his daily business in the morning, lea ving his wife and young child at home. On returning, several hours after, when he came in sight of his place he Eaw a column of light f?moko wreathing up into the sunlight from the grove where his home was situated, and hurrying forward, perceived nothing but a pile of smoking rafters where his house had been In the road, near the ruins, lay his wife, wri thing in agony, with her clothes in cinders, and her fiesh burned to a crisp in many pla ces Her chjld was not to be seen; but af terwards, in raking over the ashes of the de stroyed habitation, a few white bones were discovered all that was left of the little crea ture. Mrs. Lyons was removed to a neigh- bor's house, where, at last accounts, she was etill lingering in great distress, and not cr- mitai1 t,t ciirrivft From what could be erath- cred from the unfortunate woman, it appears that the fire originated in the upper part of the building, and that, on discovering it, she threw her child on a bed and hastily ran out for some water. The progress of the flames was almost unparalleled in rapidity; and on her return, seeing all hope of extinguishing the fire at an end, she also found, to her hor ror, that she could not reach the room where ahe had left the child. She made several des perate attempts, but the flames at last caught her dress, and the instinct of self-preservation then caused her to escape from the dwelling, and to rush along the road, calling for help, ill the torture of her blazing garments over powered her, and she fell where her husband found her. Genteel Professions. Now-a-davs. ta- lents entertain a silly notion that their chil dren must be instructed in a genteel profes sion; they repudiate the " vulgar" notion of bringing a boy up as a carpenter, cabinet maker, shipwright, or in fact any occupation that involves labor. lie must be educated for the church, the bar, the law, or for the post of civil engineer hence those profes sions are overrun, and hundreds, nay, thous ands of young men are burthen upon thoir families, being unable to find anything to do. Copyists, as a class, are badly paid for their 1 ervices ; but as theirs is a mechanical occu pation, requiring little exercise of the mind, "it cannot reasonably be expected that they should receive the wages of a carpenter or "any other skilful mechanic. Genteel profes sion, in a few years, will not be sought after by fathers and mothers for their sons, as a good investment for the capital expended up on their education.

Tn the fourth cen tury the preachers were appladued during the delivery of their discourses, after the manner of popular lectures and political as semblies in modern times. Indeed, the fre quent cries of " Orthordox," and the clapping of the hands and stamping of the feet in the churches were as common at this period as similar proceedings now are at the opera It is related that Chrysoston. the celebrated preacher, was applauded in the great church at Constantinople by the people waving their plurncs, their handkerchiefs, and their gar ments, and by others laying their hands on their hearts and exclaiming, " Thou art wor thy of the Priesthood." S3T The military of New York city have volunteered their services to protect its mu nicipal rights, which were invaded by the late legislature. A letter-writer from their says : The citizen volunteers, a body of men who can within an hour's notice, bring three thousand bayonets into the field, have for mally tendered their service to the Mayor in case cf an emmergency, though it is to be hoped that the contest will be adjudicated without an appeal to arms Things never theless, are now in a very ticklish position, and it does not requier much provication to produce disastrous results. Senator Gazzam has taken a very active part in opposition to the late bill which passed the house for the Sale of the Main Line and has acted in this matter, as we believe, with an inteligent eye to the best interests of Allegheny county not only in his place in the Senate but here among his fellow-citizens. In this connection we migit mention that by request of counsel the Supreme Court had agreed to postpone the meeting for listening to tie application for an injunction against the Sale of the Main Line to Tuesday next, at ten o'clock, in Phikda'phia Pitts. Journal. One of our Kentucky exchanges has the following : We were shown yesterday by Mr. James R. Baird, of this city, a rare curiosity in do mestic manufacture, executed by his daugh ter Margaret Jane, who is row sojourning with relatives in Nelson county, Ky. With one set of kmttinjr-needles she has made at one and the same time four distinct stock ings, which, although made at once, are en tirelv disconnected, lue leat must be en tirely original with the young lady, and how it was accomplished is a mystery to the old est "knitters." 53,, Republicanism is most assuredly dy ing out. The New York Times, one of the ablest and most influential of the organs of Republicanism during the last Presidential campaign, has abandoned the cause and come out as an independent." It is said that by instinct " rats leave a sinking ship." The Times has foreseen the downfall of Republi canism and is preparing to "stand from un der" when the crash comes. Louisville Journal. Patronizing the Drama. The citizens of Montgomery, we infer, are a theatre-going people. At the close of a late engagement in that city, a benefit was given to the manager, who being called before the curtain, addressod his audiance as follows : Ladies and Geutleman ; It affords me much pleasure to return you my thanks. I am delighted to sec you all ichat few have honored vs with your presence, since we came. Ladies and gentlemen it would afford me pleasure to stay longer, but I did not Irinj along money enough. Hard Travelixo. A man traveling by stage in Michigan was unfortunate enough to be ou a poor road where ho was obliged to go on foot and carry a rail to help pry the stage out of the mud holes, and becoming exhausted and impatient ho addressed the driver : Look a'here, old fellow, I've no objection to paying ten cents a mile for my fare, and no objection in going a foot, but I'll be d d if I carry this rail another rod." A Lawyer charged a poor man three dollars for advice. There's the money" said his client, "its all the money I have in the world, and my family Cave been a long time without pork." ' Thank God," replied tho lawyer, "my wife has never known the want of pork since we were married." " Nor ever will," rejoined the countryman, "so long a3 she has so great a hog as you." SSy The editor of a French paper assigns as a reason for its discontinuance : Our journal had but one solitary subscriber, a dealer in groceries who paid in articles out of the store. For two weeks the two editors of the paper lived exclusively on salt fish and champagne. 3T A young aian stepped into a book seller's shop and asked for a " Young Man's Companion." " Well, sir," said the bookseller, " here is kmy daughter." S3T " Do you keep bar here ?" inquired a traveler of a gentlemanly bar-room loafer, a few days since. " No, sir ; the bar keeps me here !"

At the residence of his father, in this place, Mr. JOHN COLLINS, aged 20 years. The volume of life has rarely opened with more promise than in the case of him, whose early and sudden death we are called upon to mourn. He had closed hia collegiate career with honor, and returned to the parental roof. full of hifrh hopes and manly ambition. Al ready had he made himself master of the most abstruse volumes of Law, and, tho' he had not yet attained his majority, was fast prepairing to enter the ranks of his profes sion. His intimate friends, unobtrusive as he was could not fail to sec in his practical good sense, his sound and logical manner of treating questions, an indication of the com- pletest success in after life. But genious when mingled with the clod? of the valley, however it may fall upon the ear of the world, affords no consolation to mourning friends ! Turn we, then, to ex amine the life and character of our departed friend. He teas pious I lie had the Bimpli city and truthfulness of a child ; while his frank and manly bearing secured to him all the respect and confidence due to those of riper years. During a short but intimate acquaintance, the writer never beard him ut ter a word which might not be inscribed on his headstone and do honor to his memory. No profane or obscene word ever polluted his lips, nor ever so much as an unkind cxpres sion. He had no enemies for he deserved none. What wonder then that all who gazed on his remains after " deaths effacing fingers, had swept the lines of his manly features felt a grisf that would not be controlled May Heaven impart to his friends resigna tion ; and to us who remain to buffet with the world as pure a "walk and conversation as his !
