The letter bag waai^tf brought ashore last evcuing, iu cousequeuce of a heav} storm that prevailed. The trial of the Quren, which liad progressed to the 12ttj day, still engrossed the whole public attention. The cross examination of Alqjoc-\ chi closed on the 6th day, and the Times says ? v ' , Ji " We believe we may congratu la te the nation on the exposure ofl t ? conspiracy against the Queen, by tl.L' cross-examination of the first wit ness produced against her Majesty. Every thing that Majocchi had pre viously sworn with respect to the soli tu ??? of her Majesty's bedroom, now appears to be utterly false. This v? retched witness was housed and fed by the British Ambassador, .LrYd Me wart, a man of an extraction as lo v as that of ttergami ? of fortunes : almost as rapid^R. On the Qth day, th* London Even ing^ -IujI oiv Aug. 28th, says ? k*Up to this time 4he only two credible witnesses examined, were the cap tains of the Clurindeand Leviathan, and their evidence acquitted Hit * Sueen of " improper familiarity with ergami." u Hut how fortunate it W'is il?rif the (House' of Lords alio v ?d of the daily publication of .their p;-i>cee*liiigB J In this circumstance u oH^inated the happy discovery of jVlajocchi's Gloucester coim<*xi6n; which at once dftmned.-bis evidence. 1 The ncknowledgment of the ^m-r mense bribes^ received by txargiulo and Paturzit* the captain and mate <?f th'? vessel in which her majesty mailed was drawn fiom their own months.

Last Friday evening; Governor Cass arri ved here from Chicago, accompanied by Lient. \TKay anil Mr. B. A. Forsyth, both of whom belonged to the expedition ? all in good health. YVe. underatnml that tl*e objects of the expedition have be^n successfully accomplished. The party has tra versed four thousand miles of this frontier since the last of May. Their root was from this place to Micnili mackinac, ami to the Hanlt of St. Mary's \> here a treaty was concluded with the Chippewa*, for tlir, cession of a tract of land, with a view to the establishment of a military post. ? Thev then coasted the southern shore of l.ake Superior to the Fond du l?act ascended the St. Louis Riv?*r to one of its souicch apd descended a small tributary >Uc?m of Sandy I Luke, to the Mississippi. Theyl tl en ascended t Win latter river to the i? j>per Red Cedar Lake, which max lie considered as the principal source of the Mississippi, and \\hich rs the] leservoir where the stnall stream^l forming that river unite. "From this lake they descended between thirteen] and fourteen hundred miles to l'rai rie du C hi? n, passing hv the post of, St. Peter's f on the route. They then navigated the Ouiscousin to the! portage, entered the Fox river, and descended it to Green Hay. Then the party separated in order to oh-| ?tnin a correct topographical sketch otj Lake Yfachigau. Home of tbeni coasted the northern shore of Michi limackinac, and the others took the route by Chicago. From this point they will traverse the eastern shore of the Lake to Mi( hilimackinac, and may be exacted here in the course of a week. Gov. Cass returned from Chicago hy land. A correct topographical delineation of this ex tensive frontier may now he expected from the accurate observations of CapL Douglass, who is fully com petent to perform the task. We have heretofore remained in ignorance upon tliis subject, and very little has been added to the stock of geographi cal know ledge, since the French pos sessed tlie country. We understand that all the existing maps are found to he very erroneous. The character, nwmlwrs, situation, and feeling of the Indians in those remote regions have been fully explored, and . we trust that much valuable information upon these subjects will he commu nicated to the government and to the public* We learn that the Indians are peaceable, but that the effect of the immense distribution of presents to them by the British authorities at Maiden, and at Drummond's Island, has been evident upon their w ishes and .feelings, . through the whole route* Upon the establishment of our posts, aud the judicious distri bution of our small military force must we rely, and not upon the disposition of Indians. The important I mints of $he country are now al most all occupied by our troops, and these point* have been selected w itii" great judgment. 1 1 is thought by the party, that the erection of a military1 work a* the Sault, is essential to our security In that quarter. It is the key of Lake Superior, and the In dians in its vicinity are more disaffec ted than anj^ others upon the route. Vheir daily intercourse with ikum rnoncPs Island leaves us no reason to doubt what are the means by wttich their feelings are excited and contin ued. The importance of tips site, in a military point of view, has not escaped the observation of Vi r. Cai lionn, andit was for this purpose that a treaty "Was directed to be lield. ^rhe report which, he made to the House of Representatives, in J .ulna rs last, contains his views upon the subject. ' v We cannot hut hope that no redac tion will be made iu the r$nks of the army. It is by physical force alone, and by a proper display of it, that we must expect to keep within reason able bounds the ardent, restless, ami discontented savages, by whom this whole country is filled and surround ed. Few persons naving at a dis tance are aware of the means which are used, am] too successfully used, by the British agents, to embitter the minds of the Indians, and preserve such nn influence over then#, as >viii ensure their co-operation in the even* of any future difficulties. A post at the Fond dn Lac will, , before long, he necessary, and ic is now proj^er that one should he established at the portage between the Fox and Ouis cousin nivers. * Mr. Schoolcraft has exanftned the geological struction of the country, and has explored, as far as practica ble, its minera logical treasures. ? We are happy to learn, that this de partment could not have been confi ded to one more able or zealous U effect the objects connected with it. Extensive collections illustrating th< natural history of the country, ha\ been made, and will add to the com tnon stock of AuiericAp feci puce, < We understand that copper, iron, and h ail, aie vi n abundant through the \\ hole rounti y, ai,cl that the grt*at mass of copper upon the Onconagan rivrtf lias been fully examined. ? Upon this, as well as upon other subject*, we hope we shall, in a few days, hp ahle to romuiunicate mure detailed information. The Boston I >atriot states, (hat die Commissioners to settle the boundary lines have completed their labours, and w ill shortly meet in this city to make their reports. The' new line, it Is said, b^tsveen Maine and Lower Canada, villi add a large territory to that state, and that be tween New-York end Canada will leave the works at House's Poini u iihin the British province. It is also reported that a proposal has been under consideration by the Commis sioners to confirm (as it appears they have a right to do) the old lines, re linquishing the territory for the fort, against w hich arrangement 4he in hvbitants of Maine protest vehement ly. It appears a matter of 110 great I moment to whom the fort belongs. , While at peace, we do not need it; an J it is to lie jtresumed that in the jevfcnt of another war with England, it will be no great impediment to our taking Canada; whereas the terri^l tory may be tinned to some present account. We have already more military stations than our little army can occupy, and although the same : may be said of our territory as com pared with our population, yet it* possession involves no useies ex pense, even if it yields no immedi ate advantage.?

Perhaps there' is nothing; better calculated to promote the interests of Agriculture, than the establishment of Societies, in which prizes are held ?ut to the in dividual members who shall reap the greatest product from a specified por tion of land. It. gives a stimulous to industry, calls into action the skill of the Farmer, and leads 4o experi ment and improvement in cultivation. We have been fa voted with an ex tract of a letter from the neighbor hood of Stateburg, in which we are gratified to observe the happy result of this Competition. The Competi tors for the prize, for the product of one acre of Indian Corn, have evin ced the fact ; as the harvest of many of them was from 80 to 85 bushels. The successful Competitor, Dr. Ko be ut J3ko wnfi f.ld, had a produce of 87 bushels and 12 quarts from one acre of old high land. ^Charleston Courier . V * I SALISBURY, OCT. 3. I A \OTOIiWVS VILLIjLN* A correspondent at Lincolntou, un der date of the 25th September, re- i quests us to warn the p?iV>lic against a vidian by the name of Jeremiah Smith , who is linking in that part I of the country. HaicFKmith is about $6 years of age, 5 feet 9 or 10 inches high, black hair, blue eyes, and quite fat; wears homespun panta loons and vest, grounded with cop peras colour, coat of tl?e same color, made rather short, lie learned the blacksmith's trade in tiurke county, in Col. Andrew Beard's shop, lit was branded ill ftiw right hand at Burke Huperior Court, for man slaughter. He had th? mark cut out, but it is >?ti 11 perceptible He may be readily known, ? as be is a large, fat, impudent looking man. It is said he has a family in Bouth Caro lina, somewhere between Camden ancl Rocky Monnt, and it is proba ble he will attempt to get to them. ? He rode a bay horse. He has often been pursued and a number of times taken, for the most flagrant violations of law; but the rascal has always succeeded in extricating himself, and still roams-ahont the country, setting ut defiance the arm of justice. Mr. Moore, a worthy and resolute citi zen, once oame upon Hmitli alone and unarmed? a desperate struggle ( fiMued ; but Smith being much the irgesi and* strongest, |*tu> worsted <uoie, stabbed liim with a dirk, md, had lus pistol not missed tire, | would have shot liimdend on the spot. Happily, .Mi. .N oore's ? ound is not dangerous. J he fellow li;? so often kidnapped negroes in Sotnh-l'nroli na, that the different rewards which have heeu offered for his apprehen sion amount to upwards of 2000 dol lars. It is hoped that every goo.l ^itizenjK ill he vigilant in endeavoring to bring to justicc this atrocious t>couu drel. CAMDEX. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 19> I8?0.
