cratic. A plain straw hat, a loose sack coat and linen pants constituted his external decorations. The fact of his being destitute of moustache and whiskers, was the occasion of much surprise. After the review, he returned to Washington. It is said he came down to see the battle field, and was here only a few hours, having arrived about six o'clock Thursday evening, and returned about twelve o'clock M. yesterday. A prize vessel Burnt. The Fernandina East Floridian, of the 7th instant, gives the following account of the burning of a prize bark, with a cargo of medicines, coffee, wool and furs, estimated to be worth $100,000. On Monday last our town became greatly excited by the intelligence that two vessels were in sight off our bar, one of them being pursued by the other. About 10 o'clock, a messenger arrived from the beach bringing the intelligence that one of the vessels, a large bark, was beached, and that her crew had come ashore. Soon the drum was beating

Parliamentary Debate on the slave trade. By the steamship Europe, which arrived at Halifax on the 7th inst., we have the following: In the House of Commons, on the 20th, Mr. Boxton called attention to the increase of the Cuba slave trade, and the importance of supplementing the exertions of the naval force on the African coast by other measures, especially by the re-appointment of a Consul at Mozambique. A general debate ensued, in which the Emperor Napoleon's free emigration schemes were denounced, some of the members contending that the introduction of coolies into the French colonies might become worse than the slave trade. Mr. Gregory hoped the Emperor would now cooperate with England in putting down the slave trade. Recent events in America would, he trusted, prevent American capital being embarked in the nefarious traffic. Mr. Hope said the slave trade would continue until it was made unprofitable. He suggested a differential duty on slave-grown suga

-Queen of Naples amuses herself at Rome by driving a four-in-hand phæton through the avenues of the Quirinal garden, striking attitudes therein, and having her portrait taken by a young brother-in-law, who is crazy on the subject of photographs. "Now, gentlemen," said Sheridan to his guests, as the ladies left the room, "let us understand each other. Are we to drink like men or like boasts?" Somewhat indignant, the guests exclaimed, "Like men, of course." "Then, " he replied, "we are going to get jolly drunk, for brutes never drink more than they want." Rev. Uriah Rawls, of Nansemond county, for a long time one of the most prominent ministers of the Christian Church, died on Friday last, aged 61 years. The pilot at Prince Edward Island is eighty-three years of age. His oldest child is sixty-five years old, and the youngest three months old.

February (search for this): article 1
nd beggared people, struggling with destitution and exorbitant taxation at home, and contending with expensive and bootless war abroad, has been described by history unhappily again and again; but the terrible spectacle is now apparently about to be reproduced here, with illustrations of unusual poignancy and effectiveness. The inability to pay rents in summer foreshadows a terrible condition of affairs when cold weather shall be upon us. What must be the state of things in November or February if this is what we are to contemplate in August? It would be easy, doubtless, for landlords to evict tenants and re-let their premises, but would the next comers be likely to do better? The fact is the war is ruining New York. It is the North, and not the South, that is suffering the effects of the present hostilities, as every clear-sighted financier and statesman predicted, from the beginning, would be the case.
