Wright, published in the Western jlirmian Advocate, is asserted to be ntirely true by its author : It was a night of pitcliy darkness. At four bolls in the first watch not a )reath oi air was stirring, and the trenched sails, wet by the afternoon and evening rains, hung heavily from he yards or flapped against the masts nd rigging, as the ship rolled lazily on he lung leaden swells of the Pacific Ocean. A number of days had passed vithout an observation of the sun or tars and they had to run by " dead ecboning," and were not,therefore, sure i their latitude or longitude. They night be nearer danger than they bought. The captain had gone below t eight, but feeling troubled about the )ortentous appearance of the weather, vas unable to sleep and was on deck gain, walking nervously fore and aft, ow looking on this side and then on io other side of the quarter deck, ooking anxiously out in the darkness, ben att, then at the compass, and then i the barometer which hung in the abin gangway. Hound and round vent the ship, heedless of, her helm, nd the mercury told the sacrie tale it lad told for hours before. In vain did he eyes of anxious men peer into the larkuess ; only inky blackness met heir straining gaze everywhere. Thus natters stood till six bells, when the Tiercury began to fall rapidly. Tho uick, jerking voice of the captain was hen heard : " Mr. Smalloy, you may take in the ght sails." " Ay, ay, sir;" and stepping to tho nain mast ho call out: " For'ard, here," and was immediately answered 'For'ard, sir." '"Stand by tho top allant and the ilyinggib halliards." In a moment he heard tho report, 'ready, sir." 1 Let go tho halliards and clow down, et go the sheets and clew up ; that'll lo ; belay all,' now jump up and furl hem; be lively, lads." While this was going on the captain ook another look at the barometer, md found the mercury still g.oing down 'ast. Thoroughly aroused now, he caught his speaking trumpet from tho ^rackets and sung out, " Hold on here ; down from aloft, every man of •ou, call all hands." Down came the men again. "All hands ahoy," was called with great strength of voice at oth the cabin and forecastle gang- vays, and then followed one of those scenes which defiessaoh description as would make it intelligible to a lands- nan, but which any sailor readily und- rstands. Tho top sails were closely •aefed, a reef taken in the mainsail, tho gib, tho (lying gib, and all the light sails were furled, and the ship made eady for the expected gale. 13ut yet no breath of air had been felt moving, while nn unnatural stillness and heavi- ness of the atmosphere was observed by all. Several of tho seamen saw a dim purple streak suddenly appear right ahead of the ship, and called out, " Hero it comes, sir." " Where V' said tho captain. "Bight ahead, uir." " Hard aport your helm 1 " " Hard aport, it is sir." "Brace around tho yards." " Ay, ay, sir." Tho yards were braced around and the ship was ready to receive the ex- pected blast on the larboard tack.— That dreadful streak of cloud grow al- most crimson; and there was heard what they thought was the heavy roar of the coming gale, and every man seemed to hold his breath awaiting the coming shock. Good men and coura- geous sailors were on that ship's deck, and then shrunk from the terrible on- slaught like frightened children.— When Gftdapeaks in those storms HIH voice is awful to the car, and many a strong man has quailed before it. And the storm itself is scarcely more trying to one's nerves than the moment be- fi re it strikes, while men wait in dread- ful suspense. Thus those men waited lill the min- utes lengthened into hours, and the only change pGrcep'tiltlo wns in the deepen- ing color of the lowering cloud of eriiih-on light. At length eight bells told that 4 o'clock had arrived and day- light was looked for as those men in tho ship with Paul looked for it when they " wished for day." But tho Strug gling light of the day seemed only to reveal the thickness of the darkness to the wandering vision. Just at dny- light their ems were stunned with sue- ve, quick reports, louder than the whole broadsides from a hundred guns, the whole heavens were lighted up with a fiery red light; the ocean was stirred from her profound depths; great waves, without any visible cause ran in the most awful cenrnotion, now- striking together and throwing the white foam and spray high in the air and parting to meet again in fearful embrace; a school of sperm whales ran at the ship's bows making every ex- ertion to escape from the strangely troubled water; within a few cable lengths of the ship an immense column of water was thrown mast head high, and fell back again with a roar like Ni- agara ; a deep mournful noise, like the echo of thunder among mountain cav- erns, was constantly heard, and none could tell whenoe it same; tho noble ship was tossed and shaken like a play- thing. "Great God, have mercy upon up 1" cried officers and men. " What is this ? What is coming next ? It is the dayof judgment!" The royal L'salmist described them accurately. ' They reel too and iro and stagger ike a drunken man, and are at their »vits end." Soon the mystery was solved, when right before their eyes, ibout one league from them arose the rough side of a mountain out of the fielding water, and reared its bead ligh in the air; then from its summit lames burst forth, and melted lava ran ike a river down the declivity, and fell ike a cascade of flame into the seeth ng ocean. It was a birth throe of nature, and an island wa? born which was miles in circumference. Two years afterwards I sailed right iver that place, but tho placid waters uvo no intimation that an island had >een t h e r e ; yet no man has said that IO saw the death and burial of that and whose birth I have thus chroni- led.

From the Philadelphia Evening Courier. A Baltimore Saint. If ten righteous men would have saved Sodom from the wrath of heaven, Balti- more might be spared from the vengeance of tho North for the sake of one true soul that inhabits that disgraced city. Tho musicians who accompanied the first detachment of Massachusetts volun- teers on their way to Washington were stopped at Baltimore, and, after being most brutally and cruelly assaulted by tho demoniac mob, wore rescued from their perilous position in a most remarka- ble manner. They arrived in this city ou Monday morning last, on their way back to their Bay State homes, in a terribly bruised, battered, and mangled condition. They stopped here a few hours at the Ir- ving House, in Broadway, and then went forward to Boston toexhibit their wounds and stir up the vengeful feeliug of their loyal countrymen by a narrative of the outrages they had suffered. We learned tho following interesting particulars from the musicians, whilo they were at the Irving House: The regimental band that* loft Boston consisted of twenty-four persons, whi, together with their musical instruments, occupied a car by themselves from Phil- adelphia to Baltimore, Bysome acci- dent the musicians' car got switched off at the Camden depot, so that instead of being the first it was left in the rear of all the others, and after the attack had been made by the mobupon tho soldiers, they came upon the car in which the band was still sitting wholly unarmed and incapable of making any defence.— The infuriated demons came upon them howling and yelling, and poured in upon them a shower of stones, broken iron, and other missiles, wounding some sever? ly, and demolishing their instruments.— Some of the miscreants jumped upon tho roof of the car, and with a bar of iron, beat a hole through it, while others were calling for powder to blow them all up in a heap. Finding that it would bo sure destruction to remain longer in the car, tho poor fellows jumped out to meet their fiendish assailants hand to hand. They were saluted with a shower of stones, but took to their heels, fighting their way through the crowd and running at ran- dom without knowing in "what direction to go for assistance or shelter. As they were hurrying along, a rough looking man suddenly jumped in front of their leader, and exclaimed. " This way, boys!'' It was the first friendly voice they had heard since entering Baltimore, and they stopped to ask no questions but followed their guide, who took them up a narrow court where they found an open door, into which they rushed, being met inside by a powerful looking woman who grasped each one bythe hand and direc- ted them up stairs. Tho last of their band was knocked senseless just as he was entering the door, by a stone, which struck him on the head ; but the woman who had welcomed thorn, immediately caught up their fallen comrade and car- ried him in her arms up the stairs. You are perfectly safe here, boys," said tho Amazon, whodirectly proceeded to wash and bind up their wounds. Af- ter having having done this, she procured them food, and then told them to strip off their uniforms and put on .the clothes she had brought them, a motley assort- ment of baiue jackets, ragged coats and old trowscrs. Thus equipped, they were enabled to go out in search of their com- panions, without danger of attack from the Plug Uglics and Blood Tubs who had given them so rough a reception. They then learned the particulars of the attack on tho soldiers and of their the and the One of their ownbaud was missing and he has not yet been found, and it is uncertain whether he was killed or not. On going back to the house where they were so humanely treated, they found that their clothes had boon carefully tied up, and with their battered instruments had been sent to the depot of the Philadelphia railroad, where they were adviaed to go themselves. They did not long hesitate, but started in the next train, and arrived in Philadelphia in time to moot the Cth Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteers, under command of Gen. Butler, who told them to hurry back to the Old Bay State to show their battered facc3 and broken limbs, and they should yet come come back and play Hail Columbia in the streets of Baltimore, where they had been so inhumanly assaulted. Tho noble-hearted woman who rescued iion is a well-known eliaracs Baltimore, and, according to all thfl i of Christian society, is aa outcast aucf a polluted being; but she is a heroine nevertheless, and entitled to the grateful consideration of the country.— When Gov. Hicks had put himself at the head of the rabble route of miscreants, Winter Davis bad fled in dismay, and official dignity had hid themselves in their terror, and the police were ] cscapa, and saw lying at the station two men who had been killed, others who had been wounded. be met and providod for by said Confed- erate Stati This Convenl ! to in the city of ' of u. : gling with the infuriated mob, this degraded - took them under her protection, di tilci I' ', ' bem back in s:u'oty to their homes. As she is too notorious in Balti- more not to bo parfectly well known by what we have already told of her, it will not bo exposing her to any persecution to mention h Ann Mauley is the by which she is known in th Tubs, and the loyal mon of tlio North, when they march again through its streets- 1 , should remember her for her humanity to their countrymen. Official Declaration of the Je'rench Govern- ment in Regard to the Southern Con- federacy, •'"i\; Times. Paris,Thursday, April IS, 1861. Tho American Minister at Paris, Mr. Faulkner, has just had an otlieial inter- view with the French Minister of For- eign Afl'airs, M. Thpuvenel, on the sub ject of tho recognition of the Southern Confederacy. At this interview, if we are correctly informed, Mr. Faulkner went in obedience to tho State Depart- ment at Washington, to carry a copy oi tho President's Inaugural Address, to officially announce the accession of the new government at Washington, and to represent to M. Thonvenel the line of policy tho new government intended to adopt, so far as their policy was decided upon. Mr. Faulkner informed the Mil that ho was instructed to say that the President's policy was to be found in the Inaugural Address in full; but in brief, on the question of a recognition of the Southern Confederacy, the President held that there was no fait acompli as yet, and that to recognize tho Confederacy under the present state of things, would be not only illegal, but an act of bad faith to a friendly Power, desirous and anxious of settling its own internal affaird in its own way. Mr. Faulkner also de- veloped before the Minister the able views of the question which he has before uttered, and which have been already published in the Times, and finished by protesting in the most solemn manner against any recognition of the Southern Confederacy until the new Minister, Mr. Dayton, should arrive. Mr. Faulkner said, in substance : :i This is the last time, most probably. I shall have the honor of communicating officially with your Excellency on this or any other subject, as 1 leave for my homo in a short mue, and I wish now to pro- test most energetically, in the name of my Government, agaiust any recognition of the new American Confederacy, until at least my successor, a gentleman of great ability and of high personal worth, and who will naturally come fully pared to present to you tho views of the Government at Washington, shall have arrived." M. Thouvenel then demanded to know if the Cabinet at Washington were not divided in sentiment on this question of recognition? To which the American Minister replied, that under any circum- stances the members of the Am Cabinet were only advisory officers, and that with tho President remained the ini- tiative and the responsibility of public acts such as these. That these werethe President's views, and that these alone were to be taken as guides in diplomatic transactions. M. Thouvenel then said that the Gov- ernment of the United Stales need not have .ision of a speedy recognition of the Southern Confederacy hj the Govern- ment of France. It was not the habit of the French Government to act hastily in questions of so delicate a nature. He pointed out the case of Italy, where ap parently there could bo no special objec- tion to the recognition, and yet from pru- dential motives the recognition was with- hold. The French Goverment, added M. Thouvonel, sees the present dissension in America with pain, and not only would desire to seo the broken elements reuni- ted, but would never step in by any act whatever to widen tho division or add fuel to the flames. At tho same time M Thouvenol said that tho practice of Franco, as indeed of most of the European Powers, was now clearly understood in these cases of re- cognition of new governments. A now government onco clearly established be- yond dispute, was a government de facto and mast b,o recognized, and when tho new American government arrived at that point, he presumed, although ho had no right to prejudice the future, it would be recognized. M. Thouvenel then demanded informa- tion on the subject of tho new tariff, which ho said so deeply affected French commerce. Mr. Faulkner informed him that from indications from Washington he believed there would be an extra ses- sion of Congress, and that the tariff would bo modifieda declaration which gave the Foreign Secretary great satisfaction, and induced him to say to Mr. Faulkner that ut the next meeting of tho Cabinet he would be pleased to report this hope to tho Emperor and his colleagues in the government. M. Thouvenel assured Mr. Faulkner that up to the present time ho had not been spoken to by any one on the subject of a recognition of the Southern Confed- eracy. An Exaiting Incident. of the Philadel > g Washington; April 27. Tuesday last the Sixth Maesachu- Regiment was drawn up in the Capitol to be mustered into the service of the United States. Interest was es- oited in it! behalf because of the noble it mndo against the rowdies of Baltimore. The regiment wns formed into a hollow square, rind Major Mc- Dowell, in command of the Capitol, swore the soldiers in. Colonel Jones advanced, and addressing the Major, said : " Major, I fear all my mon have not taken tiie oath of allegiance. To satisfy myself, I would bo glad if you would put the question to them." The Major requested those who hud not taken tho oath to advance to the front, and five men didso. Instantly the men rushed at them with their side- arms, andwould have destroyed them mi tlie spot but for the. efforts of tho officers and of Major MeDuwoll. Af- ter the men were quieted, the mustering officer received tho apologies of the recreants. One gave aa an excuse that he had a wife and six children, and similar excuses were made try tho oth- ers. Major McDowell told them ought to have thought of such matters • they left Boston. One relented, took the oath and was cheered into the ranks. A g the other four, feaid Major McDowell, " You arenow di.<- araoed lurever. Tho mark of Cain is upon you, here and at home. To such i. have no other words.'' When tho ranks were broken the men pad the uniforms fro.Ti the fuui arda, and, if it hadnot been for Col. Jones, the abject wretches would not have had a mouthful to eat that entire General Beauregard, From the N'pwYorl- The subjoined sketch of General Beau- regard, Commander in-Chief of the South- ern Army, will be read with interest at j the present time.

As tlie name indicate, he is of French extrac- tion, and speaks English with a noticea- ble French accent. He is about forty- two years of age. His hair is straight and black, his eyes black, and his com- plexion dark. In height ho is five feet eight inches. His shoulders are broad, and his frame firmly knit. Previous to being wounded, ho was tho strongest man in tho United States ; the muscles of his arm were like nail-rods, and a blow of his fist was like that of a sledge-hammer. He is now an exceedingly strong, vigorous and active man. In general appearance and manner he is a line representative specimen of tho old native or Creole population of his State. Ho is an elegant gentleman, mild, gentle, and courteous; ur.ieh liked by those who know him, and a very great favorite in society. When ho visited Washington, in General Pierce's term, he was the per- sona] guest of the President, who had known him in Mexico, and he always stopped at tho White House, He graduated at the United States Military Academy June 30th, 1888, with distinguished honor, being second in a a class of forty five. He was promoted Brevet Second Lieutenant of the First Artillery, and r: I, July 7th, L838 to the corps of Engineers, •which was then re-organised. He was promoted to a First Lieutenantcy Juno lGth, 1839, and to the Captaincy in 1854. He served (luring the Mexican War with great credit, hav- ing the full confidence of his superior offi- cers, being consulted by the commanding General, and listened, to with a deference never before sliown to a subaltern. He was made Brevet Captain August 20, 1847, " for gallant and meritorious con- duct in the battles of Conteras and Che- rubusco," and Brevet Major Sept. 13th, 1847, '' for gallant and meritorious con- duct in tho Battle of Chopultepec :" ou tkat day he was wounded, as the A can forces were entering the city at the Bel en Gate. Ho has been generally employed on military works in Louisiana, such stations enabling him to keep up his home ciations and see to his family-estate, which is largo and valuable. For eight years past he has been Superintendent of the construction of the Custom House in New Orleans. During that period little has been done on any fortifications in that neighborhood, and ho has given nearly his entire time to that important work. Last Fall, as a part of Floyd's rascally plans. Major B. was appointed Superintendent of the West Point Military Academy.The intention was to influence t'.ie Cadets in favor of the South. He had scarcely boon appointed to that position wlien the order was revoked, and ho entered heart and soul into the Secession movement. That he should have been chosen a General, is but a natural acknowledgment of his talents, and a recognition of his in- fluence in Louisiana. Withal, his wealth was a consideration—a very important one. Thaflie should have turned traitor, wo can bnt regret. Ambition has boon the curse of many a better man, and will yet burn his " heart to ashen.' 1 He has been charmed with the idea of a Southern Slave Republic, and demagogues use his name and wealth. It is a common course with Seceding States and individuals, to tell of their grievances, of the wrongs they have suf- fered at the hands of Northerners and our Government. This gentleman's particu- lar grievances are, that he has always had such a station as lie most desired ; that lie has been on duty at his house ; and that, though the law expressly forbids that an officer shall receive two salaries or pay for two or more distinct employ- ments, ho has, while employed at the New Orleans Custom House—a period of near- ly eight years—received eight or ten a day, in addition tohis army pay ! The records of the Treasury Department will ahow this statement to be true. To Raise Giant Asparagus. A writer in one of tho early volumes of the Horticulturist says: Every one who has seen my beds, has begged me for the seed—thinking it a new sort—but I have pointed to the ma- nure heap—(tho farmers best bank) and told them that the secret all la}' there The seed was only such as might be had in every garden. About the first of November—as soon as tho frost has well blackened the a agus tops—I take scj'thc and mow all close down to tho surface of the bed ; let it lie a day or two, then set lire to the heap of stalks; burn it to ashes, ::ml spread the ashes over the surface of tho bed. I then go to my barn-yard, take a load of fresh stable manure, and add thereto half a bushel of hen dun:;, turn- ing over and mixing the whole thr out. I apply one sueh load to every twenty feet in length of my asparagus beds, which arc six feet wide. V. strong fork, ing under.— The whole is :ioiv left for thewinter. In tho spring as early as possible, Lturn the top of the bed over lightly onco mure.— Now, as the asparagus grows naturally on the side of the ocean, and loves salt water, I give it an annual supply of its ite condiment. I cover tho surface of the bed about a quarter of an inch thick with fine packing salt; it is not too much. As tho spring rains come down, it gradually dissolves. Not a weed will appear during tho whole season. Everything else, pigweed, chick weed, purslane, all refuse to grow on the top of my briny asparagus beds But it would do your eyes good to see the strong, stout, tender stalks of the vegetable itself, pushing through the surface early in the season. I do not at all stretch a point, when I say that they are often as largo round aa my hoe handle, and as and succulent ns any I ever tasted. The same round of treatment is given to my bed every year. ITUNKY WAKD BEECHKK. »—The i.wnor oi" ;m opoVa house in Cincin- nati refuses, l at the request of many •nB," to open it to Henry Ward hftr, in tho present exeite and the lecture which be was to de- liver is therefore c 1 The Reinforcement of Fort Pickcns— How it was Bone. The steamship Atlantic, A. G Gray, Esq. commanding, left New York on Sunday, April 7, under sealed ordew from the government. At 8 A. M. dis- charged pilot, and at 10 A. M. shaped her course in compliance with orders. On Monday, the 8th, at 4 P.M., the wind suddenly shifted and blew fresh from southeast, and so continued until midnght, when it was increased to a heavy gale. In order to save the horses the ship was hove to with her head to southeast. Alter the gale had abated wo proceeded on our course for Key West, having laid to for 30 hours. We arrived and dropped anchor in the outer roads at Key West, three miles from Fort Taylor, at 2 P. M, on Saturday, tho13th, when one oi our boats was sent to Fort Taylor, ccnvey- ing Col. Brown and hiaetafl, who had a prolonged interview with the United States officers, both military and civil, At 7 P. M. commenced receiving addi- tional troops, ordnance, ordnance 3, shells, &c, &c, which were placed on a lighter and towed out to tho Atlantic by the United States steamer Crusader, dipt. Craven. This labor Was continued without cessation until 4 A. M. of Sunday, the 14th, and at li A M. we weighed anchor and steered f r Tortugas, where we anch- ored close to Fort Jefferson at li P. M. same day. At this point we to(»kon board more officers, troops, laborers, howitzers, gun carriages, materials, &c, and at 9 P. M. were under way for our final d stination, which was'now known only to Col. Brown and Capt. Meigs of the army, and to Capt. Gray of the Atlantic. Duriog the night and the ru'xt day grsat curiosity was mani- fested, and although the ship's c seemed to indicate Fort Pickons, yet it was not until the evening ol Monday, the loth, that tho secret was disclosed and the reinforcement of Fort Pickens openly announced. Up to this time all was conjecture; but now the counten- ances of all ou board beamed with the knowledge of an approaching event Activity and preparation took the place of supinenesa and uncertainty, and the fact that Fort Pickens could be and would bo reinforced was settled that night. On Tuesday, the 16th, at 6J P. M., we anchored off Santa Rosa Island (Fort Pickens being on it western ex- tremity), tour miles from shore, cl se by the frigate Sabirie, tho flag ship of the squadron. Com, Adams. After communicating with the Commander and the naval Captains present, we look in tow the boats of the fleet, some twenty in number, and after dark weighed anchor and stood in shore, all lights being extinguished, andcame to anchor within a mile of Fort Pickens, and in direct range of tho gun.s of Fort McRae and the water-batteries, and three quarters of a mile from the beach, in four fathoms of water. At 'Ji the first boat pushed off for the beach "with Col. Brown and Capt. Meigs, who were the first to .surprise the intrepid Slommcr and his command. During the embarkation of tho troops in the boats, the-signal from Fort Pickens for an apprehended attack was made by the sending up of rockets This signal was repeated, and hastened the operations. Capt. Vodgoa and oth- er officers in the fort were astonished at the rapidity of the reinforcement. Be- fore midnight the majority of the offi- cers and soldiers were safely in the fort, and, although a heavy surf was running during thfl aigh.r, no accident of nny kind oocnrr This successful landing took place three-days after the bombardment and surrender of Fort Sutnpter, a fact well known on the main land, but not known at Fort Pickens, nor by the forces afloat. Early in the morning of the 17th, the remaining troops were landed, excepting the artillery-men of Cvptain Barry's companj, wbo remained to land with their horses. At, 8 A. M. we again weisrhed anchor and stood to the cast- ward, and anchored about 3J miles from Fort Pickens and half a mile from the j beach. This point wis selected as the i best place for landing tho horses. This difficult work wa?. commenced in (lie af- ternoon, continued during the night, and .lie morning of the '. The United States si ate Povr- hattan, commanded by Capt. David D. Porter, arrived oa the afternoon of the 17th, and after communicating with tbe flag-ship, took position just ahead of us in order to cover the future landing. In [ this movement she was followed by the Brooklyn, Capt. Poor, which anchored under our stern. The Wyani ng about; the Sabine, St. Louis and ' supply being outside about three miles distant. The boats of all the ships of the squadron were actively engaged in j lauding troops and stores, &?., from the ; night of the Kith until the morning of the i*:jd. Tho Illinois, with reinforce- i, arrived al midnight on tho 19th, and her troops were landed the next morn: Seven of the horses were lost—four died on the passage, one was drowned 1 alongside, one had hia neck broke in the serf, acd one died from exhaustion on reaching the shore. The forage and light artillery were landed simultaneous- ly with the horses. On tho 18th the landing of the general cargo of; heavy and light ordnance, ammunition, ' provisions, &c, &c , were fairly com- ! menccd ami continued, with but partial interruption, until tho forenoon of Tues- day, :.' it was finally discharged, to the great gratification of all concern-j ed ; The position of the Pvvohatan and Brook- J lyn was such that thi Santa llosa Islam! and prevent a landing from the main land, and at tho same tune : shield the hull of the Atlantic. At no time was our steam allowed to go d so that in case of uttack, or gale, or any . nicy, we were ready to go off shore. On Monday, Col. Brown, the commander of the United States forces in Florida, gave I in Port I'iokens, the ! ary certificate atfd 1 dis-1 >r Key West. Ou Tuesday, Capt. Meigs, tho indefatigable Engineer j of tha expedition oame ou board and at noon wo were passing through tli • saluting and saluted, iy to Key Anl. We arrived at Key West at G A.

M., Saturday, 27th, we got under way, and at twenty minutes past noon we pa4< fed the Moro and shaped our course for New York) and after a pleasant passage arrived off Sandy Hook on Wednesday morning, making the trip in throo day* and eighteen and one-halt' hours. Address of the Maryland Senate- Tho following is the resolution and ad- dress to tho peoplo of Maryland which was adopted and signed by all the Sena- tors on Saturday : Resolved, by the Senate and House of : cs, That the "extraordinary stato of affairs" in Maryland and the Republic justifies and demands that we should adopt and publish the following AI'l'UKfS TO THE PEl 1 I.I-'. OF MAKYl.AN'n ! Under the proclamation of your Gov- ernor we have assembled to act, accord- ing toour best judgment, for the true in- terests of Maryland. That proclamation has declared the present to be " an extraordinary state of affairs;" and all must admit the correct- ness of that assertion. We have been enlivened to do all wo have the constitu- tional authority and the mental ability to accomplish, to provide for your safety and welfare during the pendency of the pres- ent unfortunate ar.d terrible crisis. At tho commencement of our labors we feel it to be our duty to your General Assem- bly to solicit your confidence in the fidel- ity with which our responsibilities will be discharged. We are Marylanders as you are. We have families as you have.— Our interests arc identified with yours. Oar duty, our wishes, and our hopes will be to legislate for the true interests of all tbe people of our State. We cannot but know that a large pro- portion of tlio citizens of Maryland haVQ iduced to believe that there is a probability that our deliberations may result in the passage of some measure c uiuuitting this State to secession. It is, therefore, our duty to declare that all such feare'are without just foundation. We know that we have no constitutional authority to take such action. You need not fear that there is a possibilty that wo will do so. If believed byus to be desired by you, we may, by legislation to that effect, givo you the opportunity of deciding for your- selves your own future destiny. We may go thus far, but certainly will not go far- ther. We know that the present crisis has materially deranged the usual current of business op .'rations in every department. We shall devote ourselves to the duty of making this change as little inconvenient as possible to our constituents. We in- vite their scrutiny to our every action.— If results do not realize our hopes and anticipations, we ask that you will, at least, extend to us the charity of believ- ing that the failure has occurred from lauk^jf ability, but not of will. A Touching Incident- In the midst of the general upronr and joillity among the members ol tho iSeveuth Itegunent, while in Philndel- pbid [writes the special correspondent of tho Tribune.) a clean looking, respec- table old lady made her appearance, lugging s. huge market basket on each arm, and making diligent inquiry for '' somu of the officers." One of tha sergeants was sent to inquire her busi- ness, which she stated thus : " I beeri that Borne of your soldier men hadn't got any thing to eat, and specially that you were out of bread. Now, I've brought you so;r.e that is real good home-made bread—some of it I mado myself, and some of it a neighbor mad? for me. Here, take it, you are welcome to it. I want to tind son.e ouu to give it to." .Some of, the mon, of course, proposed to pay her for it, but she pos- itively declined, saying, •' N >, no—I want to give it to you. I had a boy once who was asoldier in tho regular army ; he was al! through the Mexican \v: i, add he was killed mbattle. I al- ways feel as if I couldn't ever do too much for the soldiers. I can't givo you much, boys," continued she, wiping away the tears that would come at tho though; of her '' boy ;" " but here's my bread, and 1 hope some of you may like it. There's a plate of nice, freed butter there, too, and you may have the basket, and the plates, and every- thing. .Maybe my b >y has wanted bread gome time, and I hopo some, mother gave him some." Hero the old lady, after a minute's struggle, broke entirely down, and vvi h tho words, " My poor boy—my clear Al- fred"—she hurried away, leaving her basket behind, her.

BIRTH OF A VOLCANIC ISLAND,The following, narrative by D. C.

Wright, published in the Westernjlirmian Advocate, is asserted to bentirely true by its author :

It was a night of pitcliy darkness.At four bolls in the first watch not a)reath oi air was stirring, and thetrenched sails, wet by the afternoon

and evening rains, hung heavily fromhe yards or flapped against the mastsnd rigging, as the ship rolled lazily onhe lung leaden swells of the Pacific

Ocean. A number of days had passedvithout an observation of the sun ortars and they had to run by " deadecboning," and were not,therefore, surei their latitude or longitude. They

night be nearer danger than theybought. The captain had gone belowt eight, but feeling troubled about the

)ortentous appearance of the weather,vas unable to sleep and was on deckgain, walking nervously fore and aft,ow looking on this side and then onio other side of the quarter deck,

ooking anxiously out in the darkness,ben att, then at the compass, and theni the barometer which hung in theabin gangway. Hound and roundvent the ship, heedless of, her helm,nd the mercury told the sacrie tale it

lad told for hours before. In vain didhe eyes of anxious men peer into thelarkuess ; only inky blackness metheir straining gaze everywhere. Thusnatters stood till six bells, when theTiercury began to fall rapidly. Thouick, jerking voice of the captain washen heard :

" Mr. Smalloy, you may take in theght sails."

" Ay, ay, sir;" and stepping to thonain mast ho call out: " For'ard,here," and was immediately answered'For 'ard , sir." '"Stand by tho topallant and the ilyinggib halliards."In a moment he heard tho report,

'ready, sir."1 Let go tho halliards and clow down,

While this was going on the captainook another look at the barometer,md found the mercury still g.oing down'ast. Thoroughly aroused now, he

caught his speaking trumpet from tho^rackets and sung out, " Hold onhere ; down from aloft, every man of•ou, call all hands." Down came the

men again. "All hands ahoy," wascalled with great strength of voice at

oth the cabin and forecastle gang-vays, and then followed one of thosescenes which defiessaoh description aswould make it intelligible to a lands-nan, but which any sailor readily und-rstands. Tho top sails were closely

•aefed, a reef taken in the mainsail, thogib, tho (lying gib, and all the lightsails were furled, and the ship madeeady for the expected gale. 13ut yet

no breath of air had been felt moving,while nn unnatural stillness and heavi-ness of the atmosphere was observedby all. Several of tho seamen saw adim purple streak suddenly appearright ahead of the ship, and called out," Hero it comes, sir."

" Where V' said tho captain."Bight ahead, uir."" Hard aport your helm1"" Hard aport, it is sir.""Brace around tho yards."" Ay, ay, sir."Tho yards were braced around and

the ship was ready to receive the ex-pected blast on the larboard tack.—That dreadful streak of cloud grow al-most crimson; and there was heardwhat they thought was the heavy roarof the coming gale, and every manseemed to hold his breath awaiting thecoming shock. Good men and coura-geous sailors were on that ship's deck,and then shrunk from the terrible on-slaught like frightened children.—When Gftdapeaks in those storms HIHvoice is awful to the car, and many astrong man has quailed before it. Andthe storm itself is scarcely more tryingto one's nerves than the moment be-fi re it strikes, while men wait in dread-ful suspense.

Thus those men waited lill the min-utes lengthened into hours, and the onlychange pGrcep'tiltlo wns in the deepen-ing color of the lowering cloud of

eriiih-on light. At length eight bellstold that 4 o'clock had arrived and day-light was looked for as those men intho ship with Paul looked for it whenthey " wished for day." But tho Struggling light of the day seemed only toreveal the thickness of the darkness tothe wandering vision. Just at dny-light their ems were stunned with sue-

ve, quick reports, louder thanthe whole broadsides from a hundredguns, the whole heavens were lightedup with a fiery red light; the oceanwas stirred from her profound depths;great waves, without any visible causeran in the most awful cenrnotion, now-striking together and throwing thewhite foam and spray high in the airand parting to meet again in fearfulembrace; a school of sperm whalesran at the ship's bows making every ex-ertion to escape from the strangelytroubled water; within a few cablelengths of the ship an immense columnof water was thrown mast head high,and fell back again with a roar like Ni-agara ; a deep mournful noise, like theecho of thunder among mountain cav-erns, was constantly heard, and nonecould tell whenoe it same; tho nobleship was tossed and shaken like a play-thing. "Great God, have mercy uponup 1" cried officers and men. " Whatis this ? What is coming next ? I t isthe day of judgment!" The royalL'salmist described them accurately.' They reel too and iro and staggerike a drunken man, and are at their»vits end." Soon the mystery wassolved, when right before their eyes,ibout one league from them arose therough side of a mountain out of thefielding water, and reared its beadligh in the air; then from its summitlames burst forth, and melted lava ranike a river down the declivity, and fellike a cascade of flame into the seethng ocean. I t was a birth throe ofnature, and an island wa? born whichwas miles in circumference.

Two years afterwards I sailed rightiver that place, but tho placid watersuvo no intimation that an island had

A Baltimore Saint.If ten righteous men would have saved

Sodom from the wrath of heaven, Balti-more might be spared from the vengeanceof tho North for the sake of one truesoul that inhabits that disgraced city.

Tho musicians who accompanied thefirst detachment of Massachusetts volun-teers on their way to Washington werestopped at Baltimore, and, after beingmost brutally and cruelly assaulted bytho demoniac mob, wore rescued fromtheir perilous position in a most remarka-ble manner. They arrived in this city ouMonday morning last, on their way backto their Bay State homes, in a terriblybruised, battered, and mangled condition.They stopped here a few hours at the Ir-ving House, in Broadway, and then wentforward to Boston to exhibit their woundsand stir up the vengeful feeliug of theirloyal countrymen by a narrative of theoutrages they had suffered. We learnedtho following interesting particulars fromthe musicians, whilo they were at theIrving House:

The regimental band that* loft Bostonconsisted of twenty-four persons, whi,together with their musical instruments,occupied a car by themselves from Phil-adelphia to Baltimore, By some acci-dent the musicians' car got switched offat the Camden depot, so that instead ofbeing the first it was left in the rear ofall the others, and after the attack hadbeen made by the mob upon tho soldiers,they came upon the car in which theband was still sitting wholly unarmedand incapable of making any defence.—The infuriated demons came upon themhowling and yelling, and poured in uponthem a shower of stones, broken iron,and other missiles, wounding some sever?ly, and demolishing their instruments.—Some of the miscreants jumped upon thoroof of the car, and with a bar of iron,beat a hole through it, while others werecalling for powder to blow them all up ina heap. Finding that it would bo suredestruction to remain longer in the car,tho poor fellows jumped out to meet theirfiendish assailants hand to hand. Theywere saluted with a shower of stones, buttook to their heels, fighting their waythrough the crowd and running at ran-dom without knowing in "what directionto go for assistance or shelter. As theywere hurrying along, a rough lookingman suddenly jumped in front of theirleader, and exclaimed. " This way,boys!'' It was the first friendly voicethey had heard since entering Baltimore,and they stopped to ask no questions butfollowed their guide, who took them upa narrow court where they found an opendoor, into which they rushed, being metinside by a powerful looking woman whograsped each one by the hand and direc-ted them up stairs. Tho last of theirband was knocked senseless just as hewas entering the door, by a stone, whichstruck him on the head ; but the womanwho had welcomed thorn, immediatelycaught up their fallen comrade and car-ried him in her arms up the stairs.

You are perfectly safe here, boys,"said tho Amazon, who directly proceededto wash and bind up their wounds. Af-ter having having done this, she procuredthem food, and then told them to stripoff their uniforms and put on .the clothesshe had brought them, a motley assort-ment of baiue jackets, ragged coats andold trowscrs. Thus equipped, they wereenabled to go out in search of their com-panions, without danger of attack fromthe Plug Uglics and Blood Tubs whohad given them so rough a reception.

They then learned the particulars ofthe attack on tho soldiers and of their

On goingback to the house where they were sohumanely treated, they found that theirclothes had boon carefully tied up, andwith their battered instruments had beensent to the depot of the Philadelphiarailroad, where they were adviaed to gothemselves. They did not long hesitate,but started in the next train, and arrivedin Philadelphia in time to moot the CthRegiment of Massachusetts Volunteers,under command of Gen.

Official Declaration of the Je'rench Govern-ment in Regard to the Southern Con-federacy,

•'"i\; Times.

Paris,Thursday, April IS, 1861.Tho American Minister at Paris, Mr.

Faulkner, has just had an otlieial inter-view with the French Minister of For-eign Afl'airs, M. Thpuvenel, on the subject of tho recognition of the SouthernConfederacy. At this interview, if weare correctly informed, Mr. Faulknerwent in obedience to tho State Depart-ment at Washington, to carry a copy oitho President's Inaugural Address, toofficially announce the accession of thenew government at Washington, and torepresent to M. Thonvenel the line ofpolicy tho new government intended toadopt, so far as their policy was decidedupon.

Mr. Faulkner informed the Milthat ho was instructed to say that thePresident's policy was to be found in theInaugural Address in full; but in brief,on the question of a recognition of theSouthern Confederacy, the Presidentheld that there was no fait acompli as yet,and that to recognize tho Confederacyunder the present state of things, wouldbe not only illegal, but an act of badfaith to a friendly Power, desirous andanxious of settling its own internal affairdin its own way. Mr. Faulkner also de-veloped before the Minister the ableviews of the question which he has beforeuttered, and which have been alreadypublished in the Times, and finished byprotesting in the most solemn manneragainst any recognition of the SouthernConfederacy until the new Minister, Mr.Dayton, should arrive. Mr. Faulknersaid, in substance :

:i This is the last time, most probably.I shall have the honor of communicatingofficially with your Excellency on this orany other subject, as 1 leave for my homoin a short mue, and I wish now to pro-test most energetically, in the name ofmy Government, agaiust any recognitionof the new American Confederacy, untilat least my successor, a gentleman ofgreat ability and of high personal worth,and who will naturally come fullypared to present to you tho views of theGovernment at Washington, shall havearrived."

M. Thouvenel then demanded to knowif the Cabinet at Washington were notdivided in sentiment on this question ofrecognition? To which the AmericanMinister replied, that under any circum-stances the members of the AmCabinet were only advisory officers, andthat with tho President remained the ini-tiative and the responsibility of publicacts such as these. That these were thePresident's views, and that these alonewere to be taken as guides in diplomatictransactions.

M. Thouvenel then said that the Gov-ernment of the United Stales need not have

.ision of a speedy recognition ofthe Southern Confederacy hj the Govern-ment of France. I t was not the habit ofthe French Government to act hastily inquestions of so delicate a nature. Hepointed out the case of Italy, where apparently there could bo no special objec-tion to the recognition, and yet from pru-dential motives the recognition was with-hold. The French Goverment, added M.Thouvonel, sees the present dissension inAmerica with pain, and not only woulddesire to seo the broken elements reuni-ted, but would never step in by any actwhatever to widen tho division or addfuel to the flames.

At tho same time M Thouvenol saidthat tho practice of Franco, as indeed ofmost of the European Powers, was nowclearly understood in these cases of re-cognition of new governments. A nowgovernment onco clearly established be-yond dispute, was a government de factoand mast b,o recognized, and when thonew American government arrived atthat point, he presumed, although ho hadno right to prejudice the future, it wouldbe recognized.

M. Thouvenel then demanded informa-tion on the subject of tho new tariff,which ho said so deeply affected Frenchcommerce. Mr. Faulkner informed himthat from indications from Washingtonhe believed there would be an extra ses-sion of Congress, and that the tariff wouldbo modified—a declaration which gavethe Foreign Secretary great satisfaction,and induced him to say to Mr. Faulknerthat ut the next meeting of tho Cabinethe would be pleased to report this hopeto tho Emperor and his colleagues in thegovernment.

M. Thouvenel assured Mr. Faulknerthat up to the present time ho had notbeen spoken to by any one on the subjectof a recognition of the Southern Confed-eracy.

An Exaiting Incident.of the Philadel > g

Washington; April 27.Tuesday last the Sixth Maesachu-

Regiment was drawn up in theCapitol to be mustered into the serviceof the United States. Interest was es-oited in it! behalf because of the noble

The Major requested those who hudnot taken tho oath to advance to thefront, and five men did so.

General Beauregard,From the N'pw Yorl-

The subjoined sketch of General Beau-regard, Commander in-Chief of the South-ern Army, will be read with interest at jthe present time. I t has been preparedfor us by a gentleman who served withBeauregard under the Stars and Stripes.

Pierre Gustavo Toutaut Beauregard,tho commanding General in tho la!tack of the rebel forces on Fort >••ter, and tlio most capable of all their offi-cer?, is a native of Lonisiana. As tliename indicate, he is of French extrac-tion, and speaks English with a noticea-ble French accent. He is about forty-two years of age. His hair is straightand black, his eyes black, and his com-plexion dark. In height ho is five feeteight inches. His shoulders are broad,and his frame firmly knit. Previous tobeing wounded, ho was tho strongest manin tho United States ; the muscles of hisarm were like nail-rods, and a blow of hisfist was like that of a sledge-hammer. Heis now an exceedingly strong, vigorousand active man.

In general appearance and manner heis a line representative specimen of tho oldnative or Creole population of his State.Ho is an elegant gentleman, mild, gentle,and courteous; ur.ieh liked by those whoknow him, and a very great favorite insociety. When ho visited Washington,in General Pierce's term, he was the per-sona] guest of the President, who hadknown him in Mexico, and he alwaysstopped at tho White House,

He graduated at the United StatesMilitary Academy June 30th, 1888, withdistinguished honor, being second in aa class of forty five. He was promotedBrevet Second Lieutenant of the FirstArtillery, and r: I, July 7th, L838to the corps of Engineers, •which was thenre-organised. He was promoted to a FirstLieutenantcy Juno lGth, 1839, and tothe Captaincy in 1854. He served (luringthe Mexican War with great credit, hav-ing the full confidence of his superior offi-cers, being consulted by the commandingGeneral, and listened, to with a deferencenever before sliown to a subaltern. Hewas made Brevet Captain August 20,1847, " for gallant and meritorious con-duct in the battles of Conteras and Che-rubusco," and Brevet Major Sept. 13th,1847, '' for gallant and meritorious con-duct in tho Battle of Chopultepec :" outkat day he was wounded, as the Acan forces were entering the city at theBel en Gate.

Ho has been generally employed onmilitary works in Louisiana, such stationsenabling him to keep up his homeciations and see to his family-estate, whichis largo and valuable. For eight yearspast he has been Superintendent of theconstruction of the Custom House in NewOrleans. During that period little hasbeen done on any fortifications in thatneighborhood, and ho has given nearly hisentire time to that important work. LastFall, as a part of Floyd's rascally plans.Major B. was appointed Superintendentof the West Point Military Academy.—The intention was to influence t'.ie Cadetsin favor of the South. He had scarcelyboon appointed to that position wlien theorder was revoked, and ho entered heartand soul into the Secession movement.

That he should have been chosen aGeneral, is but a natural acknowledgmentof his talents, and a recognition of his in-fluence in Louisiana. Withal, his wealthwas a consideration—a very importantone.

Thaflie should have turned traitor, wocan bnt regret. Ambition has boon thecurse of many a better man, and will yetburn his " heart to ashen.'1 He has beencharmed with the idea of a SouthernSlave Republic, and demagogues use hisname and wealth.

I t is a common course with SecedingStates and individuals, to tell of theirgrievances, of the wrongs they have suf-fered at the hands of Northerners and ourGovernment. This gentleman's particu-lar grievances are, that he has always hadsuch a station as lie most desired ; thatlie has been on duty at his house ; andthat, though the law expressly forbidsthat an officer shall receive two salariesor pay for two or more distinct employ-ments, ho has, while employed at the NewOrleans Custom House—a period of near-ly eight years—received eight or tena day, in addition to his army pay ! Therecords of the Treasury Department willahow this statement to be true.

To Raise Giant Asparagus.A writer in one of tho early volumes

of the Horticulturist says:Every one who has seen my beds, has

begged me for the seed—thinking it anew sort—but I have pointed to the ma-nure heap—(tho farmers best bank) andtold them that the secret all la}' thereThe seed was only such as might be hadin every garden.

About the first of November—as soonas tho frost has well blackened the aagus tops—I take scj'thc and mow allclose down to tho surface of the bed ; letit lie a day or two, then set lire to theheap of stalks; burn it to ashes, ::mlspread the ashes over the surface of thobed. I then go to my barn-yard, take aload of fresh stable manure, and addthereto half a bushel of hen dun:;, turn-ing over and mixing the whole throut. I apply one sueh load to everytwenty feet in length of my asparagusbeds, which arc six feet wide. V.strong fork, ing under.—The whole is :ioiv left for the winter. Intho spring as early as possible, L turn thetop of the bed over lightly onco mure.—Now, as the asparagus grows naturallyon the side of the ocean, and loves saltwater, I give it an annual supply of its

ite condiment. I cover tho surfaceof the bed about a quarter of an inchthick with fine packing salt; it is not toomuch. As tho spring rains come down,it gradually dissolves. Not a weed willappear during tho whole season.

Everything else, pigweed, chick weed,purslane, all refuse to grow on the top ofmy briny asparagus beds But it woulddo your eyes good to see the strong, stout,tender stalks of the vegetable itself,pushing through the surface early in theseason. I do not at all stretch a point,when I say that they are often as largoround aa my hoe handle, and as •and succulent ns any I ever tasted. Thesame round of treatment is given to mybed every year.

Duringthe embarkation of tho troops in theboats, the-signal from Fort Pickens foran apprehended attack was madeby the sending up of rockets —This signal was repeated, and hastenedthe operations. Capt. Vodgoa and oth-er officers in the fort were astonished atthe rapidity of the reinforcement.

Address of the Maryland Senate-Tho following is the resolution and ad-

dress to tho peoplo of Maryland whichwas adopted and signed by all the Sena-tors on Saturday :

Resolved, by the Senate and House of:cs, That the "extraordinary stato

of affairs" in Maryland and the Republicjustifies and demands that we shouldadopt and publish the following

AI'l'UKfS TO THE PEl 1 I.I-'. OF MAKYl.AN'n !

Under the proclamation of your Gov-ernor we have assembled to act, accord-ing to our best judgment, for the true in-terests of Maryland.

That proclamation has declared thepresent to be " an extraordinary state ofaffairs;" and all must admit the correct-ness of that assertion. We have beenenlivened to do all wo have the constitu-tional authority and the mental ability toaccomplish, to provide for your safety andwelfare during the pendency of the pres-ent unfortunate ar.d terrible crisis. Attho commencement of our labors we feelit to be our duty to your General Assem-bly to solicit your confidence in the fidel-ity with which our responsibilities will bedischarged. We are Marylanders as youare. We have families as you have.—Our interests arc identified with yours.Oar duty, our wishes, and our hopes willbe to legislate for the true interests of alltbe people of our State.

We cannot but know that a large pro-portion of tlio citizens of Maryland haVQ

iduced to believe that there is aprobability that our deliberations mayresult in the passage of some measurec uiuuitting this State to secession. It is,therefore, our duty to declare that allsuch feare'are without just foundation.We know that we have no constitutionalauthority to take such action. You neednot fear that there is a possibilty that wowill do so.

If believed by us to be desired by you,we may, by legislation to that effect, givoyou the opportunity of deciding for your-selves your own future destiny. We maygo thus far, but certainly will not go far-ther.

We know that the present crisis hasmaterially deranged the usual current ofbusiness op .'rations in every department.We shall devote ourselves to the duty ofmaking this change as little inconvenientas possible to our constituents. We in-vite their scrutiny to our every action.—If results do not realize our hopes andanticipations, we ask that you will, atleast, extend to us the charity of believ-ing that the failure has occurred fromlauk^jf ability, but not of will.

A Touching Incident-In the midst of the general upronr

and joillity among the members ol thoiSeveuth Itegunent, while in Philndel-pbid [writes the special correspondentof tho Tribune.) a clean looking, respec-table old lady made her appearance,lugging s. huge market basket on eacharm, and making diligent inquiry for'' somu of the officers." One of thasergeants was sent to inquire her busi-ness, which she stated thus : " I beerithat Borne of your soldier men hadn'tgot any thing to eat, and speciallythat you were out of bread. Now,I've brought you so;r.e that is real goodhome-made bread—some of it I madomyself, and some of it a neighbor mad?for me. Here, take it, you are welcometo it. I want to tind son.e ouu to giveit to." .Some of, the mon, of course,proposed to pay her for it, but she pos-itively declined, saying, •' N >, no—Iwant to give it to you. I had a boyonce who was a soldier in tho regulararmy ; he was al! through the Mexican\v: i, add he was killed m battle. I al-ways feel as if I couldn't ever do toomuch for the soldiers. I can't givoyou much, boys," continued she, wipingaway the tears that would come at thothough; of her '' boy ;" " but here's mybread, and 1 hope some of you maylike it. There's a plate of nice, freedbutter there, too, and you may havethe basket, and the plates, and every-thing. .Maybe my b >y has wantedbread gome time, and I hopo some,mother gave him some." Hero theold lady, after a minute's struggle,broke entirely down, and vvi h thowords, " My poor boy—my clear Al-fred"—she hurried away, leaving herbasket behind, her.

VALPARAISO, April 3, 1861.W.ili feelings of deep regret I have

to announce iu \<>;i the alter de«trnc- jtion of lh<; c-ily of Menctozn, in thu'Argentine Ropubli •, by an eartli^uftke,•in Uio OVcuing (if ilic 20lh ol Marchlust. At that date, at halt-pnot eightP. M.j a flight bi:t prolonged vibrationof the earth was felt in this eity ami inSantiago simultaneously. Most of thechurches were densely filled, knear tho ulose of Lent, and some alarmand confusion was cheated, but no se-rious accident occurred, ;fnd Iranquilitywas .soon reutored.

On Sunday, the 21 h, however, ageneral gloom was cust over this cityby the announcement by telegraphfrom the capital that Betiigno Bruno,tho mail rider, had arrived from Men-doza that morning without u mail,bringing ihe idt<tre;sing news that thereremained but a heap of ruins to puiutthe spot where, a few days btstofo, hadetood a thriving and populous i i tv oiI.".,QUO sou:.-.

iJruno sta'ed that he arrived at Men-doza on the moruing of tho 'JOih; that \at half [iast eight P. M., a hrid but iexcessively violent shock of an earth-quake, lasting but six or eight seconds,destroyed every building, public midprivate, in the cixy, and that the numberwho were enabled to escape was vorylimited. The streets being narrow,the buildings high, and the inhabitantstotally unused to BUchJphenOlDOua, theywere paralyzed with terror, and neg-lected to seek refuge in the opon courtsof their dwellings until too late. ThePostmaster was buried beneath i!:c.! ruins of tho Tost OHice, J|tho Governorwas mismug, and when asked why hebrought no certifio te that the mailswere lost, tho messenger replied,"There was no ono left to write it, normaterials to write it with.1'

Tho aspect presented by the cityafter tho first shock was terrific.—Hoarse subterrruean thunder deafenedthe air, animals of all kinds rushedi'ran'ically through the open spaceshowling, the earth opened and vomitedforth floods of water, while to crowntho gceue of horror, tlanaes burst fromtho ruins acd consumed nearly the eu-tiro business portion of the city, withits dead, its dying and its wounded;

Oo the 27th a number ot letters warereceived hero and al Santiago o .tives and friends of Chileans residing inMendoza, but thu hope, until then en-tertained, that tho earlier accountswero exaggerated, soon gave away toi he dreadful certainty that the calamityhad not yet been painted in colors ent-ficiently vivid. The earth still contin-ued to tremble, t!,e few walls that hadresisted the first shock on.o by onefell, until now no vestige of a buildingremains. The mountain roads are in amost dangoious condition, not only onaccount oi tho huge masses of rockthat havo already fallen and obstructedthe road, but because tho vibration oftlio earth is sill hurling them down fromthe height? above into the ralieys.

The gauchos, or natives of the gur-rounding country, hastened tothespot,not to assist the "needy or aid in rescu-ing tho wounded from a lingeringdeath, but to seek for plunder amongthe ernoking ruins, and to snatch thelittlo saved from the wretched survi-vors. Ono gentleman writing fromthence, after describing these horrors,gnys :—" I believe that in a few dayswo shall have no other law biero thanthat oi tho poignurd."

Tbe prison was destroyed ; out ofone hundred inmates ninety-two per-ished. The remaining eight, who werealroady hardened villains, tanned them-selves into a band of lroebooters, andhad gone, it was supposed, to thomountain passes, to intercept and robthy parties sent from Chile for the re-relicif of the sufferers. One woman\vaa found robbed and murdered bythe roadside. She was recognized asone who wae 00 her way to jJeudozfito seo her family. They too had allperished on tho 20th.

In tho Jesuit church there waspreaching that night. The serviceshad just concluded, and tho congrega-tion was about dispersing, when theshock came. Tho few who had reach-ed the piazza wcro saved, but the wallaand rooi of the building fell inwardwith a crush, and tho priest and peni-tent together were hurried into eternity.

Death of Captain Fink,The community was shocked yesterday

morning at tha intelligence of the deathof Qapt. Fiuk, U. S. A. He was activelyengage.I during the whole of Thursday inmustering in tne companies of tho FirstRegiment, and complained to the .'jar-goon towards evening oi' being veryiatigucd. On his return homo he refusedto eat any supper, and after sending forhi3 second in command, and giving sonicdirections iu reference to his duties, re-tired to his bed. About one o'clock inthe morning he spoko to his wife, and s;iidhe would go iutu dm hall of the building,and putting on his dri nrn andslippers ho went out. Mrs. Fink drop-ped to sleep, and oa awaki-.ig and missingkiai became alarmed and wont to seokhim. She found him lying ins nsible inia the hail, uear the door o£' his room, towhich lie had started to return. Shamowed the iamatea of tho boasa, and hewa3 taken in and medical aid was procu-red, but too late to bo of any avail.—Life was probably e\tiuct before hj wastaken iuto his room.

The cause of his death was apoplexy,occasioned by excessive fatigue in master-ing the troops at Tort Wayne oa Thurs-day, Tho air was raw and chilly, aud,being warmly cl.id about his chest andwearing a heavy hat, a rush of blood wasinduced to his hend, which was still far-ther accelerated by the damp ground,which chilled his feet.

Captain Fink WM a native of Bruns-wick, Germany, iie came to this OOUDtrysome twenty years sines, and entered theregular service us a private, and servedwith credit in the Florida War. i ie wasmade Sergeant-Major of the 8th Kegi-ment. l ie afterwards served in the Mex-ican war, aud was breveted Second Lioti-te'.iant for meritorious conduct at the tak-ing of the city of Mexico, where he re-coived three severe gunshot wounds, whichdisabled him from aciivo service lor sixmonths.

September 7, 1852, he received a First,Lieutenant's commission. On the firstof July last ho was ordered GO Detroit totake charge of tho recruiting station lo-cated here, and while hero was promotedto a Captaincy.

Captain Fiuk leaves a vrifo and fourchildren to mourn his untimely death.—He was a man of fine social qualities, and,during his diort residence among us, hadgaiucd mauy warm friends.

An Interior View of Mississippi.Tho letter from which we have been

allowed to print the following extracts,was received in this city yesterday, by abrother of the writer. The author of itis a gentleman of high standing in Mis-sissippi, who haa lived there betweenthirty aud forty years, is a slaveholder,and is well known iu this city :

. , April 14, 1861." Vv'e are in the midst of the greatest

excitement. The storming of Port Sump-ter and the warlike news from the Northlias roused our Southern Confederacy,and I oau assure you lias caused a gener-al gloom.

" We had como to the conclusion thatthe North would not fight, that theywo ild suffer themselves to be spit uponwithout resenting it. I have told themall along that they were mistaken iu thecharacter of the North, that they werenot always blustering, swaggering andboasting of their ohivalry, but prepared

elves coolly and deliberately, andwhen fairly aroused there was no backingout iu them. Two or three companieshave left this vicinity for Fort Pickens,and troops are collecting from all theConfederate States, principally youngboys raised in the shade. An army ofr igulars would whip a million of them\\ e begin to think there is fie;lit in theNorth, and that the war will bo a bono. We have been told time and againby our fire-eaters that there would be uowar, that the North would not fight Ihave told them otherwise ; that war j c a l 1 f o r t l l e destruction, and of the verywould como, that the best government, property the Government now stands in

nesd, including throe of t'io finest shipsin the Navy. Tho Yard could have beenheld, at least until (ho channel couldhave been freed from obstructions, everyvessel towed out, and all tho cannon,arms, &C, removed, and if held until thathad been done we should not now hearof an expedition to retake it. Wo hopeto hear of no more such " protection ofthe property of the United States" duringthis campaign.

The Destruction at Norfolk.If there is truth in the familiar saying

that " a blunder is worse than a crime,"then the somebody who is responsible forthe destruction of property at the Norfolkand Gosport Navy Yard.s has a groatcrime to answer for. Without any dispo-sition to find fault or bestow censure, wemust be permitted to say that wo do notbciievO a more egregious blunder was everperpetrated. I t was a needless destruc-tion of building?, stores, and vessels, aimunless tiie ofiiccrs in charge acted underpositive instructions they seem to us inex-cusable. They must iu any event havebeen frightened by a shadow, for with theforce and means of defense at their com-mand there was no immediate danger ofan attack they could not repel. WithFort Blonfoe commanding tho Bay andcutting off aid to the rebels from the Po-tomac or tho coast, with the batteries oftho Pennsylvania heavy enough to layNorfolk and Portsmouth in ruius, withtroops enough in New York and Phila-delphia which could bo lauded at the Na-vy Yard iu a few hours, there was no

that ever existed would not be broken upwithout a struggle.

'• Wo are in a bad condition for carry-ing on a war. Our credit is not good.V,"e have not money to carry on a warthreo months without forcing it from thopockets of the people.

"The banks in all the seceding States,except one, have suspended. All confi-dence aud credit among individuals isgone.

" If the West, to whom wo aro indebt-ed for our flour, meat and corn, shouldshut down upou us, we could uot hold outthree months. I t will require from theWest. 500,000 bushels of c >rn to save ourState alone from starvation. The priceof slaves haa gone down from $1,500 to$500 or $700, indeed, they cannot bosold at any price. All our surplus capitalIKIS been absorbed in taxes.

" We havo just heard of the surrenderof Fort Sumpter. Our people are crow-ing over the victory, and threaten tomarch on Washington and take that, If

We aro glad to learn that Hon.THORNTON F. BUODHEAD, of Wayne,

has tendered his services to Gov.BLAIK. This will givo to the servicetho aid of an able and distinguishedofficer, ono who won for himself and thoState ho nobly represented on tho fieldsof Mexico, a distinction to which newand untried men rarely attain. Let

our people here will see sights." There is everywhere a large amount

of Union sentiment, but it dare not atpresent show itself, but will eventually.The leaders have no intention of going

Lo the Union, but boldly declarethat the Union must como to them. Cot-ton \i king, and every knee must bow tohim. Nothing but a severe thrashingwill bring them back. I expect the next

point the way to victory, and they willaid in teaching rebellion a lesson

winch il will not soon forget. ' Distin-guished alike in the field and in ourLegislative halls, Col. B. commandsthe respect and confidence of soldieryand citizens, and his name will giveconfidence tojtrorps now mustering who

to make tho attempt. The Union party i purieneed and inefficient officers. Wehere is powerless, and kept in subjection ! hope that he will be given such a posithrough fear.

Tho Niles Inquirer says thatHorace Groeley " is the ouly man, who," of all others, outside the Cabinet, has" the confidence of the President, aud" understands the objects and designs of" the government." If that is so wepity the government, and almost despairof the future.

A Washington dispatch of tho7th inst,, says that tho War departmenthas communicated a desire to the Govern-or's of the several States called on forthree months troops, that all regimentsnot yet marched forward should be mus-tered into the service for threo years. Ifthis request is made to apply to the FirstRegiment of this State some of the menmay conclude that it is more than theybargained for.

We give up our whole paper, edi-torial columns and all, to " Crisis news,"convinced that we can best satisfy ourreaders iu that way. With no little la-bor, but with much economy of space, wo.have condensed much of the news of theweek into a column or two of <! CrisisParagraphs."

While the Democrats of theNorth have, almost as one man, sunk allparty considerations and responded tothe call of the country with alacrity andzeal, hosts of Republicans are clamoringfor office and for tho " blood " of Demo-cratic office-holders, and the Administra-tion at Washington shows too much of adisposition to gratify their demands.—The Democrats are only doing thoir duty,and without selfish motives, and shouldnot the "powers that bo" follow theirexample and forget party in this crisis1"Or is it tho duty of Democrats to dothe forgetting, and the Republicans thegetting?

Franca and the Southern Confederacy-Washington. May 5.

The State Department has furnishedthe press the official correspondence be-tween Ministers Faulkner and 'J'houvonel on American affairs, Faulkner in-formed him :

That the President entertained a fullconfidence of tbe speedy restoration ofthe harmony and unity of the govern-ment;

That events might produce a tempo-rary inconvenience to French subjects,but all injury shoild be indemnified ;

That the President thought it not im-probable that there would bo an ap-peal made to foreign governments bythe Confederate States for recognitionof their independence, and, when suchappeal was made, it will be opposedby the Minis er who may then repre-sent tho United States.

Faulkner said that tho only requesthe had '.o make was, that no proposi-tion recognizing the dismembermentoi the Union shall be considered bvFrance til! the arrival ot the new Min-ister, who will bo fully instructed.

Thouvenel replied that no applica-tion had yet been m a d e ; that theFrench government never acted hastilyon such questions; and he assuredFaulkner that no precipitate actionwould be taken on the subject by theEmperor. Uo said the establishedusage was to recognize a de /aito gov-ernment when ii proper ease was madeout

In reply to a question, Faulkner saidhe thought that force would not be used.The only solution was a m dification ofthe constitution, or a peaceable acqui-escence in the claim to separate sover-eignty.

Thouvenol thought the employmentof force unwise.

In the Secretary of State's instruc-tions to Minister Dayton, he is to con-sider instruotionu to the former Minis-ter by the President as unchangeable.Notwithstanding any opinion expressedor recorded by his predecessor, he isto assure Thouvenel that no differenceof opinion exists between tho Presidentund his Cabinet.

Tho path is plainly marked out bystern necessity, and not by the handsof this administration is this govern-ment to end. France's assurance notto take any hasty steps is consideredsatisfactory, although attended bv res-ervations.

Scwaid says, in reply to Faulkner'sanswer, that force would not bo used,&c , that the time when these questionsbad any pertinency has passed. Insur-gents, with deadly war, tried to com-pel tho government to recognize thedismemberment of the Union.

We have accepted this civil war asinevitable of necessity. Constitution-al remedies are still open to the insur-gents, and will remain so. You cannotbe too decided in making known to theFrench government that uo idea does,or will, exisl of suffering a dissolutionof the Union to take place in any way,peaceably or forcibly. I t has neverentered the mind of any candid states-man here, and it is high time to be dis-missed by European statesmen.

The Occupation of tlie Relay House-.•!i to the Associated Press.

Baltimore, May 5.This morning Knox Clifford, overseer

of James H. Lacki U's farm, at, the Re-lay House, attempted to cross Hie bridgeover tlie Patapsco at that point, nnd wasmet by a guard of United States troops,who prevented his crossing Soon after-wards thirty cars arrived from Washing'ton, with nearly eighteen hundred troops,said to be the Eighth Regiment of NewYork, ami the Sixth of Massachusetts,under command of Brigadier GeneralButler.

There was intense excitement at theBelay House, and many of tho inhabi-tants, frightened, foolishly left, somecoining to this city.

The troops were followed by their campequippage, and hail, beside muskets andsmall turns, several cannon and howitzers.They took possession of Messrs. Luekett'sand Talbot's farms, established a camp,and announced that if any hostile demon-stration was made they should fortify tbeneighboring heights.

Tho troops are said to have cut downtho telegraph on the lino west of tlie Re-lay BO as to prevent communication be-tween Baltimore and Harper's Ferry.—The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is alsoheld, to prevent forwarding supplies tosecession troops in Virginia.

It is believed that the road fromWheeling will be taken possession of forthe same purpose, and soon that secessiontroops will hold the road only from Har-per's Ferry to Martinsburg.

The troops this afternoon were drillingat the Relay. Their approach is said tohave been so quiet aud stealthy that thefirst the telegraph operator knew of itwas when the guard came in and tookpossession. The news is not generallyknown here, but, so far as it has been an-nounced, it has been received with satis-faction, except among the National Vol-unteers who attacked the Massachusettstroops, and they feel themselves power-less to resist.

The intention of the troops was topermit no communication wc t for thepresent. If this be carried out, tho re-assembling of the Legislature will bepostponed until they can find other meansof reaching Frederick, or they concludeto meet elsewhere.

The Union men here are rejoining overtho prospect of this unexpected stay oftreasonable legislation, which they believemust now be entirely stopped. The in-teLtion of the secessionists was, in viewof the certain defeat of tho committee ofsafety bill, to keep the Legislature in session to take advantage of any contingencywhich would enable them to accomplishtheir purpose. Tho prompt movement oftroops has already deranged their plans,and demoralized the whole secessionmovement in Maryland.

There are rumors afloat that a detach-ment from the Relay House will occupyCamdeo station, on the Baltimore andOhio Railroad, in the morning, but thereis no definite information.

A Negro view of the Crisis-A few evenings since Fred Douglas

spoke at Rochester on the crisis. Heconcluded his address by declaring thatthe only settlement which can be made ofour troubles will be by the destruction ofthe cause which has produced tho difficul-ty— slavery. True, the government seemsnot to be doing anything to bring aboutthis result directly; but things are work-ing. If the government is not yet on thoside of the oppressed, events mightierthan the government are bringing aboutthat result. He had been asked : " Whatare you colored men going to do ?" Heanswered, let a few colored regiments godown South and assist in setting theirbrothers free, and they could and woulddo this work effectively for our govern-ment. He was ready to go; but this diduot imply much courage, for he knew hewould not be accepted. The South arewiser in their generation than the North.Black people are being made soldiers cfat Montgomery. They piled the sand-bags and raised the batteries which droveMajor Anderson from Sumpter; but youNortherners are too aristocratic to marchby the side of a " nigger." But tho timemay yet come when the President shallproclaim liberty through all the land.—The speaker argued that the constitutiongranted this power to Congress Thatgreat statesman, John Quincey Adams,once told the chivalry to their faces thatthe power to set slaves at liberty wasclearly implied in the war-making powerThere can be no peace or unity in thiscountry while slavery exists.

The President on Baltimore,Correspondence of the New York Herald.

Tho President briefly addressed theSeventy-first Regiment. He said hewas very glad that they had not comethrough Baltimore. It was the wishof the government that they shouldnot, and, although he knew the senti-ments of tho men upon that subject, hethought the course they had pursued,and which the government had decidedupon, tho very best which could havebeen accepted. The government feltassured, and the event of the last fewdays justified that assurance, that io ashort time Baltimore would bo one ofthe most Union-loving and Union-do-fenc'.ing cities in the country. Thisthe) might rely upon and expect. Itwas only a question of time, and ota very short time. At Vera Cruz iheGeneral in command was asked howlong a time he wanted to capture thecity. He replied that it could be cap-tin ed in six hours at the sostor twenty-five thousand lives, or it could be cap-tured in three weeks, without a singlelife being sacrified. The General wasallowed to take his three weeks, andVera Cruz became ours without theloss of a life. So it might bo possibleto force troops thiough Baltimore im-mediately, by the loss of many live*,but be preferred, with the General re-ferred to, to give Baltimore its threeweeks and accomplish tbe sumo object,if it were desired, peaceably andquietly.

From Cairo;Special Dispatch to the Cinoinnati Enquirer.

Cairo, May 4.Cairo is remarkably quiet—less excite-

ment than we have had for a month.The number of troops here is swelled

to 6,500. It is said they intend locatinghere permanently, as they are buildinghouses, tents, &c.

There are four batteries planted on thelevees, two on the Ohio and two on theMississippi River. The camp is called" Camp Defiance."

A citizen of Cairo, named Burns, shotone of tho soldiers named George Myra,this morning, for insulting his wife. My-ra received two shots and died almost in-stantly. • Myra is from near Springfield,in this State. No arrests were made, asit is believed that Burns was in the right.

There are 1,500 troops ut Corinth,Miss., 500 at Paducah, and 300 at Co-lumbus, Ky.

Tho excitement has died away in bothColumbus and Paducah. They are tak-ing more rational views of the occupation(/Cairo.

~ The Eight Talk:orresponGence of theXew York Ti:n -\

Washington, May 2.Some of the officers of the Sixty-

ninth, on being approached by arabid abolitionist with the remark thatforty thousand negroes would no doubtbe iti the field to help them, answeredthat they wanted no such help; furth-er, that they wou'd march with asmuch alacrity to Charleston to putdown a negro insurrection as thev wouldgo to replace tho stars and stripes overSumpter] adding, " [(• thoro are notwhite men enough North to do thiswithout enacting over again the hor-rors of St Domingo, by the butcheryof women nnd children, then it wouldbe better to let the Union fall.

Union Men in Charleston-A letter from Charleston, dated April

25, says;" Say to your citizens that there are

yet Union men in this headquartersof sedition. They dare not showthemselves yet, not even'to each other.But. when you have put the rascallyRebels to rout in tho first engagement,then march the Stars and Stripes downthis way; call on all Union men tocluster around them, and assure them(hat they shall have their protection,and I tell you that thousands will flockaround them, and show tbe truth ofwhat I have always told you, that se-cession was crammed down the throatsof an involuntary people. We are get-ting to be in a bad »vay for lood. Ourfighting men seem to have overlookedthe fact that Dearly all we eat has here-tofore been received from the North,butter, cheese, lard, bacon, fish, driedfruits, potatoes, &c The war hasStopped our supply. The troops willsoon gobble up what is on hand, andwhat then ? It is no joke. Butter re-tails at sixty cents » pound, and isneither plenty nor good F.esh meatsare lrom twenty-five to thirty-five ceuJsa pound—all sorts, from the tendercalf to the venerable bull. Short cropswill follow the war fever. While Mas-sa loafs about tho city, or plays soldieron the island Satnbo don't go to workof his own accord on the plantation.Look out for real distress hero nextwinter. The screws being applied tothe banks, a considerable portion of theloan " was freely token." Hurrah !The first installment will about use upthe specie on hand, and the second willhave to be paid in phinp)asters; thethird in niggers, probably, and so forth.Pity us, we are in a bad way. Donot believe what tho papers say, forthey have long ceased to tell the truth."

Gen. Pillow who is n clever gentle-man in the private relations of life, anda very companionable man, pent us amessage recently, which is explained inthe following reply :

" KXOXVILLE, April 22,18G1." GEN. GIDEON J. PILLOW:—I have

just received your message, throughMr. Sale, requesting me to serve aschaplain to your brigade in the southern army; and in the spirit of kind-ness in which the request is made, butin all candor, I return for an answer,that when I have made up my mind togo to hell, I will cut my throat and godirect, and not travel round by wayof the Southern Confederacy.

TRAITORS AT WORK.—A singular dis-covery was made at the Washingtonnavy yard on Monday. A certainbattery, one of the most important inthe yard, had been, before tba't time, inc arge of some of tho militia of theDistrict. When the regular gunnerstook charge they examined the condi-tion of the guns. In every gun a peckof saw dust was found crammed tight-ly into the breech, "in tho place whernthe ball ought to bo." The authoritiessupposed, of course, that these gun3were al! loaded with ball,'ind dependedupon them to repel any attack thatmight bo made upon tlv) navy yard.—Correspondence Philadelphia Press.

".Mrs. Cilinton lias n perfect rigbt todress her daughter according to her idea ;but I prefer to sec you in the igarli so becoming to modest girlhood.lour father, darling, is very much em-barrassed at present, having entered i.ityBOine ppecalatious which I l'oar will |disastrous-: we will tlieu be obliged toleave this splendid house and seek onemore suited to our means. I tell j-outhis, my child, that you may not be an-noying him for money for every elegant,costly trifle you may bo pleased with.—l'ou know it hurts him to refuse you."

" And L have been forever teasinghim about new dresses and jewels. Iwould uot have been so unkind, dearmother, had I known what you say," saidMetta Bancroft with tearful eyes.

•' Only i'ioughtlessl darling," said hermother. " Sow attend to your lessons —perhaps you may be able to turn youreducation to advantage, and assisf yourfather, should trouble come."

Metta Bancroft was a noble gift Fromher infancy she had been the light ofhome. With a firm wiil ai?d keen \n<v-ception of right, she never wavered when*he knew her duty, and although roared iuafilucncc, and accustomed to be pettednod caressed, she was not spoiled. Yets-ho was not entirely free from that greaterror in tbefernalocharrtcter, rivalry aboutdress; and despite of her resolution, shewas sadly disappointed about the pearls.In the evening, wlicu her father returned^his face looked very troubled. There w:;s» mournful tenderness in his eye as hemet his wife and daughter with their ac-customed kisses. The evening passed al-most in silence, and when Metta had re-tired to her room he said to his wife," Alice, the blow has fallen at last."

" I had feared so, William," said hiswifo. " Bat you have done all in yourpower to prevent it. (jod's will be ibne ;we will not murmur."

" And will you be willing to resign thishome for ouc of poverty ? he asked.

•' W illing, my husband. i wouldscorn to keep up a false appearance, whenwe have i;ot the means to support it."

" My noble, noble wife. You havelightened the burden on my heart. Butwill our daughter be reconciled to such achange : ' '

•' She is a darling,'' said the mother.fondly. " To-day I refused to allow herto make some expensive purchases, andintimated the reason; she immediatelyacknowledged the justice of my lvi'innl,and was really troubled to think of theannoyance her many frivolous requestsmust have caused you."

The father's eye brightened. " Ourreverse may be a blessing for her—it willbring out and strengthen her character."

" Are your hopes entirely blasted ?"asked the .

"Even the furniture will be t-satisfy creditors. I may possibly hmeenough left to furnish a few rooms, audMr. Green of the insurance company haspromised me a situation. My salary willbe barely sufficient to support us. How-ever, we will do the best we can."

Under the. ruthless hand of the auc-tioneer scares an article was left unsold.Objects of great vaiue were sacrificed athalf their cost.

With rare defewnination, on the dayafter Mr. Bancroft's failure, his wife setoutfor the first time iu her life, house-hunt-ing. In a quiet street in Brooklyn, shesecured the upper apartments iu the houseof an old widow lady, whose family con-sisted of an only daughter. Early in thefollowing week they removed, and woresoon comfortably settled.

Mr. Bancroft wns happier than he ex-pected to be. The little parlor, with itscane chairs and p"etty carpet) looked soneat and comfortable—uever bod biswife looked so beautiful. Attired in asimple calico, her cheek flushed, her eyebeaujing with happiness, and singing.a&ong as she prepared their evening meal.Eveu Metta looked more dignified as shesat at a small table writing copies for lierscholars; for she had obtained a positionas teacher in a school.

'• I never felt such contentment before,"said the father. " Really, people of fash-ion have no idea of the pleasure theymiss."

" And indeed, papa," said Metta, " Ifind more enjoyment and instruction in tea-ching my little class than during roy asso-ciation with people of fashion. The char-acter of my pupils is an interesting study ;not two are alike. I begin to think Ihave found my vocation."

" We are all fitted to excel in someparticular avocation," said the mother,"and we should seriously endeavor toknow in what before we eutcr upon anywork. See my dear girl, the advantageof learning whatever we undertake per-fectly. If you had wasted your timeand talents like many a foolish person,you would not now bo so independent."

Metta grew up to be a true woman ;and although she never wore the costlypearls which she saw at Tiffany's, yet inthe cabinet of her heart were shrinedthose rarer and richer pearls of Modesty,lotciiigeuee, and Virtue.

A Valuable Pa in tFor the information of all ivbo are

•wishing to obtain a cheap and valuablepaint for buildings, I would say, takecommon clay, (the same as our commonbricks arc made of,) dry, pulverize, andrun it l&roujrh a seive, and mix withlinseed oil. You then have a first ratetiro-proof paint, of delicate drab color.P u t on as thick as practicable. Ifany one has doubts with regard to theabovo, just try it on a small scale—paint a shingle and let it dry. Recol-loot that it must bo mixed thicker thancommon paints.

Tho clay, when first dug, will soondry, if spread in the air under a shelter,or, if wanted immediately, it may bodried in a kettle over a tiro When dryit will be in lumps, and can be pulver-ized by placing an iron kettle a fewinches in the ground, containing theclay, and pound it with a billot of hardwood, three inches in diameter, threefeet long, tho lower end to bo a littlerounded. Then sift it.

Any clay will mako paint, but thecolor may differ, which can easilybo ascertained by trying them on asmall soalc as above indicated, liyburning tho clay slightly, you will gota light red, and tho greater the boatyou subject it to, tho brighter or deep-er red.— CuunO 1/ Gcntlemo
