John Mitchell the Inch Patriot.
Interesting Incidents.—We clip the
following strang e
. paragraph from the
Dublin Freeman's Jolrnal, respecting
the exile patriot on the occasion of his
arriving at the Cape of Good Hope,
whither he had been sent by the English
government from Bermuda:
"Private letters have reached town,
which give some details of the arrival
and reception of John Mitchell at the
Cape of Good Hope. The exiled patri
ot reached there just at the time the
good people of the Cape were in insur
rection against the "Saxon" on the con
vict question. John Mitchell was one
of the "convicts" and to him -it, wee a
boon of no ordinary value to be trans
ferred from a climate injurious to his
health, to one to which his damaged con
stitution might become renovated. The
good people of the Cape, however,
tind
learned the lesson of I.( sistence from
their own Mitchell's and were in full ac
tion when oats arrived. They refused
to admit the "convicts," bht when they
learned that John Mitchell was in the
bay, a deputation of the leaders of the
Cape "rebels"—we beg pardon, heroes,
for they succeeded—waited on the au
thorities, and offered to receive Mitchell
IS a "free settler." The authorities, we
presume, thought there were Mitchells
enought there already, and refused to
accede to the proposal of the deputation
and John Mitchell is now again at sea,
a wanderer on the ocean and an exile
from his home. The peculiar circum
stances of the case were just of that
*lass to elicit a trait of Mitchell's char
acter. He suffered from the success of
the Cape "insurgents," •but he :eft their
harbor with an exultant heart, crying,
"Bravo, men of the Cape!"
Great Britain and the United States.
Our Minister to England, Hon. Abbott
Lawrence, on , the 30th of .Novembr, at
tended a meeting of the governors of
the Scottish Hospital, in London, and
himself and' his country being compli
mented, he made a short speech, closing
as follows:
His gallant friend, the chairman, had
alluded to some great improvements
contemplated by the United States gov
ernment. He (Mr. Lawrence) was hap
py to inform them that a railway was
now under construction to connect the
two Oceans ; and in the`course of a year
mind a half they would see the iron horse
steaming over the isthmus. With re
gard to another great project, which had
been contemplated for the last three hun
dred years, he trusted -itti accomplish
merit was not far distant. He begged,
however, in connection with this subject
to state• that the United States asked for
no exclusive firiiiileges in either of these
schemes. They would ask this coun
try to subscribe with themselves to
wards these great. improvements. They
would ask Great Britain to join them in
guaranteeing the neutrality of those
great highways. They asked no exclu
sive privileges, and they did not mean
to grant any. They wished theie great
communications to be open to all the
world—free to all mankind. And, so
far as the United States are concerned,
they should be dedicated to the benefit of
mankind all over the world [cheers].—
His Excellency then concluded by giv
ing as a toast, "Great Britain and the
United States I May the stars and
stripes of the 'Union float side by side
with the cross of St. George, and may
peace be preserved forever." [Loud
cheers]'.
OUTRAGES ire PHILADELPHIA.---The
Philadelphia papers are daily filled with
accounts of outrages in that city, and
the adjoining districts. Oa Wednesday
morning, John McGrath was attacked
by his brother-in-law, Thomas Boyle,
with a large knife, wich he plunged
into his bowels, and afterwards inflicted
fourteen terrible wounds, leaving no
hopes for his recovery. He next inflic
ted a slight wound on Mrs. McGrath,
and then escaped. On the previous night
John Emmet was attacked in his house
by three men, and received several stabs.
Charles Gillen, one of the offenders, was
arrested. On Tuesday night, nearly
a whole block of wholesale stores, on
Water street were entered by burglars,
who ransacked several safes and draw
era, .but before securing any thing of
value, they were frightened off by the
watchman. Boyle has since been arres
ted.
Texas and Santa Fe.
Victory or Death.—The information
from Santa Fe that the inhabitants had
taken preliminary steps to organize a
territorial government, has caiused the
greatest excitement at Austin, Texas.—
Many were for marching an armed force
thither and putting down the rebels, as
they are termed. The Austin Gazette
advises delay until the receipt of the
President's Message, and at all events
that the Texans should not precipitate a
crisis, or complicate matters by violence.
It still reiterates a determination to have
Santa Fe, and says:
Rather than surrender to the usurpa
tion of the General Government one inch
of our blood won territory, let every hu
man habitation in Santa Fe be levelled
to the earth, and us, if the necessity of
the case requires it, be buried beneath
its ruins."

The - Perlman Murder.
The Boston Mail says
We are informed that the families of
Dr. Parkman and Dr. Webster have ever
been on the most friendly terms, recei
ving and changing Visits constantly ;
but as regards the money dealings be
tween the deceased and Dr. W. there
can be no doubt ; and the only cause of
serious difficulty between the pertihs
grew out of Pie proVerbinl punctuality
of Dr. P. and Want of prudence and fore-
thought in Dr. W.
Since this dreadful oCeurfenee,. Mrs.
Parkman has several times written' let
ters of friendship to Mrs. WebSter, of
Cambridge in Which, without in the least
degree alluding to the murder, she of
fers the hand of fellowship and ehristinn
sympathy to her sister in misfortune,
pointing out the path that the Great Ru
ler of all things has offered to the atiTic
ted.
In addition to this, we have heard of
another fact, well worthy to mention. A
day or two after the rumor became gen.
eral that Dr. P. was missing, and re•
wards offered for his body, a conVersa
thin took place in presence of Dr. Web
ster and hie: own' family circle. His
daughter 'in sporiltina of the rumored
murder, said, ' , You, Pa, it is stated here,
was the last person that saw him alive
for he was seen to enter the College at
noon, and he milk have wandered away
out f town afterward ;" and she made
some exclamation of pity. "The ac-
counts are quite inflammatory," exclaim•
elf the aunt of the young lady. "And
what a dreadful thing it would be if
they should go so far as to charge your
father with the murder. This was said
of course without any point or meaning,
and elicited an answer of indifference
from the young lady, but it turned out
too true; for Dr. Webster, was that very
night arrested by the officers and carried
to prison, and Miss W.'s aunt, when her
predietimi or thoughts were fulfilled,
fainted and remained for a long time in
a state of insensibility.
A Tragedy at Louisville.
The Louisville Courier of the 24th
ult., says :—We mentioned in .Friday's
Courier the sudden death df Mrs. Over
slaugh, a German woman residing in the
alley in the rear of Brassmyers tavern,
on %Vetter street. Suspicious were very
strongly entertained that she had been
foully (leak with, and a coroners inquest
was held on the body and a post-mortem
examination 'rade by. Dr. Vnndell. He
had the contents of her stomach ana
lysed, and the ctOise of death was at
once developed. In !mr stomach was
fourid sufficient arsenic . !•0 destroy five
persons. The suspected p.,rpetrator of
this horrid crime is arrested. Be had
been a visitor at her •house, soiiciiing
her hand in marriage. Her husband and
child had died with the cholera last sum
mer, and she was left,, as it was thought,
En the possession of a censiderable sum
of money. Another German had been
attentive to the deCeased also, and to
keep him from marrying her and getting ,
possession of her money, is supposed
to be the cause that led to the .fiendish
act. An examination of the •affair will
be instituted to-day, and we forbear ma
king any further mention of it at pres
ent.
A Spec of War.
The calm of recovering despotism,
settling quietly over late revolutionary
Europe, is broken, prospectively, only
by the poSiiion of Germany. Not Wit
hstanding the surmises that Russia awaits
the spring to commence hostilities aga
inst Turkey, we have little faith or hope
that the Czar will involve himself in a
quarrel to which England and France
must be opposing parties. He will soon
er swallow the presence of an English
fleet in the Dardanelles, and leave the
Sultan to dispose of Hungarian and Pol
ish refugees as he pleases. But there
must be some backing down on the Ger
man question, or war between Austria
and the German Union is inevitable,—
The emperor of Austria says the Ger
man federal Congress shall not meet at
Erfiirt,'and the King of Prussia says it
shall. These crowned getitlemen spy
ing tossed gloves into the cock-pit, they
must either pick them up or battle is
declared. .The people of Germany side'
with the King.
Omitting too Much.
A green, good-natured, money-ma
king, up-country Jonathan, who said
everything dryly, "got things fixed,"
and struck up a bargain for matrimony ;
having no particular regard for apponr
ances, the parties agreed to employ a
green horn country justice to put up the
tackling. He commenced the ceremo
riles by remarking that, "it tvas cus
tomary on such occasions to commence
with prayer, but he believed he would
omit that ;" on tying the knot he said,
" it was customary to give the married
couple some advice, but he believed lie
would omit that; it was cnstomory to
kiss the bride but he believed he would
omit that also." The ceremony being
ended, Jonathan took the squire by the
button-hole, and clapping his finger
to his nose, said, "Squire it is custom
ary to give the M'agisi rate five dollars—
but I b'lieve I'll omit that I"

Texas Boundary.
.The claim advanced . by Texas to the
boundary of the Rio Grande has been
perseveringly insisted on by her repre
sentatives in Congress ever since the pe-1
riod of annexation,. The basis of the
claim rests upon the definition of the
boundaries of the Republic of Texasas
fixed by the constitution in 1836. But
the Santa Fe country was never in the
l'iossession of Texas prior to annexatio'n.
Nevertheless it is not to be denied that
the government of the United States, in:
its war with Mexico, did assume the Ito
Gratide es the boundary of Texas,—
Against Mexico this assumption was
made good. Every foot of ground claim
ed by Texas became ours by annexation.
It is true that a military government was
formed at Santa Fe, under the direction
of the general government, irrespective
of the State. authorities of 'Texas. So
far as thi• fact goes it does hot seem to
recognize the territorial claim of Texas:
The Baltimore .thnertcan, in remarking
upon this subject, in connection with
the resolution of Gen. Houston, calling,
for the official correspondence in relit-
tion thereto, says that if Congress,
should sue fit to recognise the claim of
Tewts.,- the Santa Fe country would be
sufficient to form a new state whenever
Texas should avail herself of the priv
ilege of subdivision as embodied in the
net of annexation. 'The admission of
California, with a similar privilege of
future subdivision, would remove the
agitating question of slavery in the ter
ritories from the public councils of the
nation, and we think thnt all good chi
tens might find matter of congratulation
in seeing that troublesome subject
pla
ced under the control of competent local
lauthorities.
Mechanics in Congress.
It is said that nearly one hail of the
members of the present Congress were
mice journeyman merchants. If so, (says
the Washington correspondent of the
Charleston News) this is an interesting
fact, and shows what perseverance can
accomplish. These men have heroine
great not so much from the facilities
for a common knowledge, which our
system of education affords, as fruin
self.reliances, which a sense of indepen
dence confers. It has been truly said
ihat the moment you make a man politi
cally equal with his fellow, you give
him a conscienciousness that he is so in
all respects.
DESTRUCTIVE FIRE—THIRTY HORSES
BURNT!— WASHINGTON, Jan. 6, 1850.
A destructive fire broke out here this
morning, between four and five o'clock,
in Naylor's Stables, by which the entire
concern was consumed, together with
80 horses, a number of Omnibuses, and
several private carriages. There was,no
insurance that we could learn. It is gen
erally believed to be the work of an in
cendiary.
[Compiunicated.]
When we ,drop n tear over the grave of •a
friend, we but pay a tribute which each of us
will coop demand from the eye of sorrow ; and
the sigh which escapes from the heart oppress
ed by grief at the b'edstde of the dying, is but
the sound of thf , broken Milt of the chitin of fe
licity, which the soul or affection vainly fancied
had encircled the destiny of human life with a
zone of
. _
When old age, weary' with the burden' of
d
istence, abandoned by th., companion of early
} 'lace of hiS nativity,
years,---a stranger in the
and living only in the years iehat have long since
passed away,—quietly seeks !or the resting
place of his ancient companions, th at he may lie
, down and rest with them ; we almost wish for
permission to enter the region of shado%Vs with
him, and to hold converse with the spins that
sojourn beyond the dark valley. But when
youth, and genius, and learning, and goodness ;
all that animates our respect for the present, or
excites our hopes for the future ; is snatched
suddenly from us by the hand of death, a feeling,
deeper than regret and more poignant than dis
appointment, penetrates the bosom.
All who knew. ALLEN C. MILLIKEN While
here, knew him but to love his goodners, to ad
mire his genius, and to respect the blameless
purity of his life. A graduate of diatinction in
Nassau Hall, the modesty of his bearing, and
his profound respect for virtue even in the hum
blest walks of life, whilst it exhibited the gen
uine spirit of the Christian scholar, was out the
offspring Of the glowing imagination and poetic
fancy which illumined and adorned all the work
ing!of his mind.
His thirst for the acquisition of knowledge
was great; but aside from his regular scholas
tic and professional labors, he worshipped con
stantly in the temple of muses, but gave the
first offerings of his heart to Poetry. His mor•
als were stainless ; and the untarnished purityOf
his conversation, which was every where, and
st•slk times, fit for ihe ear of the most blameless
female, was but the offeprini of a heart which
revolted at all impurity, whether of *cords or of
deeds. • • . .
Cut of in the bloom of youth, in the first
germ of manhood, in the spring-time of hope.
and in the midst of plans and schemes of life,
how•he should do honorto himselfand give:con
notation to his friends ; he died, as one whose
file had been so blameless should die ; he met
death with the calmness of a philosopher, with
the confidence of a Christian, and with the
courage which could only be inspired by a con-
science void of offence towards God and man.
When he saw that the end of his life was inev ,
itable; and perceived the sword of fate drawn to
cut the thread of his existence, he faltered riot,
he trembled not, but calling to his friends, said
—“Leave me to my thoughts"..-and.passed the
last moments of his existence in a solemn re
view of his own life—a life no well and so hon
orably devoted. to the pursuit of the highest sci
entific and literary attainments, and so faultless
in its desires and aspirations could not but be
clear and calm in its close ; without a doubt of
the future, or regret of the past ; clinging only
to existence for the sake of the yearnings of
friendship and affection—the friendships whose
Boothings and confidences were perishing from
memory, and the affection, the brightness of
whose chain was to fade and the last link to be
broken before the next silence of the.night should
be broken by the notes of the midnight clock.—
Without guilt and — without remorse, his soul
took its flight to the regions of the good, the
generous and the just ; to wander in the fields
of light, and drink inspiration at the fountains
which flow froin the hills of paradise.
