THE VENTRILOQUIST. A few years ago, towards the dusk of heevening, a stranger in a tiavelling sul key was lelsurely pursuing his ivaytovard a little ravern, situated at the foot of a mountain, in one of the western States, A.little in advance of him, a negro return ig froh the ptough, was singing thefa :rite, Ethiopean melody, Gogne down to shinebone alley, Long time ago! hTb stradger hailed hin-'Hallo ! un ele, you. snow ball 'Sah V.said the blacky, holding tip his * horses. -Is that the half-way house ahead yon der' bNo sah, dat Massy Billy Leitond's otel.' 'Hotel, eh'-Billy Lemiond ?" "Yes sah, you known massa Billy ? be used to live at the moufo' Cedar Creek he done niove now do-be keeps a mon sons nice house, now, Ihtell you.' ,Indeed Yes sah ; you stop dah dis obening, I spee;'all spectable getnplemen put up dah. You chaw backah, massh ?' -Yes, Sambo; here is some real Cavil dish for You.' . . Tankee, massa, tankee, sal; Quash my name.' 'Quash, eh ' 'Yes, sah, at your sarvice. Oh,' grun ted out the delighted African. 'dis is nice he better dan de Green River ; tankee, ssh. tankee.' 'Well, Quash, what kind of a geitle man is Mr. Lemon ? Oh, he nice man, monsous nice mar., emperinit gempleman in lust style, and I take care uv de hauses. I b'longs to hint, and ?say it, massy BIly mighty clebber man.. He funny too, tell heap a stories, bout ghoses and spirits, notwistanding he fraid on 'em heself too, my pinion.' 'Afraid of ghosts, eh ?' said the travel. ler, musing, Well, go ahead, Quash-as it's getting late, I'll slop with Mr. Lemon to-night.' 'Yes sah ; geo up. hoe Dobbin! go long lively !' and setting oil at a brisk trot, ol. lowed by the traveller, (ie musical Quash again broke out in Gwine down skimbanc alley. The burden of 'Long time ago' was ta ken up by some one apparently in an ad joining cornfield, which occasioned Qnash to prick up his ears with some surprise; he continued, however, with Long tim6 ago. And' the same voice rosponded from the field, 'Who dat ' said the astonished negro, checking suddenly his horses, and looking around on every side for the cause of his surprise. Oh never mind ; drive ahead snowball; its some of your maste's spirits, Isuppose' Quash in a very thoughtful mood led the way to the tavern, without uttering another word.-ialting before the door, the stranger was soon waitedeby the ob liging Mr. Lemon, a bustling, talkative gentilemeu, who greeted his customer with 'Light, sir, light-here, Joht! Quash ! never mind your umbrella, sir-here, Quash, tako oil that rug-give me your wbip, sir-take off that trunk-walk in, sir--John, takeout that chair box-come, sir-and carry his horse to the stable-do yen prefer him to standi on a dirt floor, air 1' 'If you please, sir. He is rather partic )'ar about his lodgings.' 'Carry him to the lower stable, Quash, and attend to hinm well;- I alvays like to see a horse well- tended, and tis is a no ble criwer, too-,' continined the landlord, clapping him on the back. 'Take care, will you ?' said the horse. 'What the d-I ?' exclaimed- thrlanid lord, starting bacle. 'None of your famniliarity,' said the horse, looking spitefully around at the as tonished t avern keeper. 'Silence, Beizebub,' sai" the tiraveller, caressing the anittal ; atnd turnaing to the landlord, observed, 'you must excuse him, sir, he is rather an aristocratiC horse, the effect of education- sir.' 'He's the devil, sir.' *Wo-hon. Belzebub ! loose the traces, Quash. What are you starting at! lle'll not eat you.' 'Come, landlurd' said Beizebub, 'I want Quashi scattered -the landlordl backed up in the porch-anid the traveller was fain to jump into his vehicle, and drive round ini search of thu stable himsell. Ilavitng succeeded to his satisfaction in disposing of his horse, he returned to the tavern. Anon supper came on. The eggs had apparetly youtik chicketns in thiem-the lantdlord was in coitfusion at such a mor tifying circumstances. and promised theo t.iavelier amends frotm a coid pig, which, as he inserted the carving knife io it, ut tered a piercing squeal, which was res * ponded to by a louder one from the land lady., .

The- voices called again -and the landlord, after going, returned the second tin-e,- declat'ed'his belief that the *vhole plantatiron- was- haunted that night by evil opirits.

Spirit-of theTimes : - On the afternoon of -the 12th, -Lt..Gra. ~m, of tie -th arrived in camp badly scalded, and reported iat the Dayton bad burst-her boilers, that Liets. Higgine and Beirr-y, of the 4th -nfaniry, with some oth ers, were killed, and many horribly icald ed. The Dayton left. this on the morning 'of the 12th(6r- St. Juseph's Island, haviug 'on board. Capt. Crossman, A. G. M., Lieuts. Graham, Higgins and Woods, of the 4th, Lieut. Gordon of the 3d, and Aset. Surgeon Crittenden; besides these there were several soldiers and citizens on board. At 20 minutes past 12, being op posite Maglone's Bluff, she burst her boil ersi scattering death on every side. Lt. Higgins, just before the explosion, was talking to Dr. C., and Lieuts. R. and W. we- lying down near them asleep, all be ing in the small cabin aft of the social hall. :Capt. C., Lieuts. Graham and Gorpon, with many others standing around them, were seated on the boiler deck. Lieut. If. was immediately killed by a piece of iron striking him' on the head, Dr. C. and Lt. W. escaped any material injury,-Lt. B. was killed and his body not found until the next day. All on the boiler deck were blown high in the air, and fell in the water some distance from the boat. Licut. Gordon was uninjured, Capt C- very slightly, and Lieut. Graham badly, although not dangerously scalded. There were eight killed and seventeen wounded. The scene baffles descripiion. After the first boiler burst the second was thrown into the water and exploded with a crash 'of thunder, throwing -volumes of water high in the air. The sceno in the water was terribble; it was deep enough to swim any one, and there they lay, poor mangled fellows, clingiug to pieces of the %treck, until fortunately they were allpick ed up by the yawl, which was energeti ly employed under the immediate direc tion of Lieut. Gordon. As they were brought on shore, it was horrible in the extreme to look at them; some with near ly all the flesh off, one with his leg broken and alli more or less mutilated; some per fectly blackened, and one negro not only scaldcd, but his flesh burnt to a crisp. Every aid that an experienced and talent euted medical officer could render, was freely and promptly given. The General Hospital was placed at the disposal of all soldiers and citi-ens-and the amount of terrible suffering that is undergoing there, would rend the heart of the most iudiffer-' ent. The boat is a completo and utter wreck, literally blown into atoms-it was an old hulk of a thing, totally unfitted to curry pabsengers. It was our only choice in the absence of proper transportation. and in an evil hour she was chartered, not only to carry freight, but to be the means of sending eight souls, and possibly more at one moment into eternity. It is strange, she had filled her contract and was orn her way down to be discharged. How i- it, that these terridle accidents cannot be stopped? It is all folly to enact laws about the inspection of tachinery, &c. Le. Pass a law making it death, instan taneoas death, to the Captain of a vessel, and I'll warrant you'll hear of few disas ters. In this instance it was gross care lessness. The 2d engineer had clyarge of the engine, the 1st engineer was asleep, the effects of dissipation the night before, and the Captain was asleep directly over the boilers, and strange to- relate, neither were hart of any consequence. In the name of God, why should they, te res ponsible ones, be saved and the innocent hurled into eternity ! TuE CUIrVATLOY oh' CoTroN IN INDIA. Our readers will find in our Agricultu ral department ant account of the final failure of the attempt of Great Britain .o cultivate Cotton in the East Indies. She gave the experiment a fair trial, and ex ported from the best Cotton regions of the South and West, our Cotton seed, Cotton gins, atnd practical planters, who' entered into a systemiatic and scientific series of experimenits to grow mthe *' Snowy fleece" 'in oppressed India. We re.mremnber the appressions which were expressed, and the fe-ars which were uttered when it was supposed all that extensive country was to be turned into a region of great pro duction, and' furnishi to England, the food for her millions of spiindles and shuttles. Our people then thought the English market would 'be lost to' us forever-and that an entire change must takce place in our Agricultural operations. But this fail ure relieves mnaany who feared the results, and flully demonsirates the dependence forever, of the Ocean Queen to our Cot ton growing regions for this essenitial sfa pe-which has contributed as much as any other, to build up her magnificent fleets, and extensive carrying trade. She has failed in this. She has also failed in her nefarious autempt to grasp Texas-, and retder that rich country tributary to her commercial exactions. South Carolinian. From the Genessec Farmter. SYMIHraI or. CUMFREY. in searching for aids in a new self-sup porting system of general and lhberal ed ucaion. especiatty in the pthysica and dietic depaatments, I was led, somne ten years ago, to commience a reries of exper iments upon this vegetable; the interest ing results of wvhich I began,-ini September 1842, to communicate. publicly in my na tive eastern region. This, for the public benefit, I wish still to do, as opportunity shall tie offered. 1 have found this article truly of rare value; the herb made into hay for cattle, and the root dried' and ground to flour fur man I-t is a' native of this and many other countries-found both in a wild state, and also' cultivated in' many gardens for its healthful qualities. It is perennial, very hardy, the cropsure, the growth luxuriant, eproduce' abunfiant. while the' labor it requires is very small. In 1841, I obtain ed of twvo years'.growth of roots, on soil of moderately good tilth, after the caps of the roots were taken off to replant, wher. thoroughly dried ahd ground, at the' rate of 24,200 pounds or' fiou~r to-tro acre. In 1842, 1 obtained on the-same soil, from the herb of the second years'-growth, at tvo cuttings, at the rate of.11,616 pounds q[ well rnade good hay~ to the acre. It requiresno other tilling or attention than' digging the crop) of roots in April, onoe in two or three years, nd planting as you dig, about?7 oi- 8 inches apart both ways; .an c.,,tin. and kaning the herbs, once the first year, dad twice a year after wards. When ground in a coffee orcorn mill, the root flour niay then be used like other articles of food, according to the requisi tions of health. convenieuce orfancy, in various breddi, gruels, puddings, griddles, soups, pastry and custards, and in. such proportions as may be found agroebl. It is.(like arrow root, sage and datmeal.) very mucilaginous, uutrieious, and easy of digestion. It operates well for- the lungs. It has rostored a lost'vcice, atd is one of the best remedies for habitual coughs and incipient consumptions.. .IL nourishes the feeble and suits well a dys peptic stomach, when no other food can be kept down; and it sets all right in the bowels. I think it one of the best drticles for sustenance and health ever made for man, and that on almost every -occonuit. But let others cultivate and try:itfur them selves;-and it wili probably, with them as with me, be constantly growing' in their estimation. EZE a RicN. IMPORTANT SCHEME. The Postmaster General has issued an advertisement, inviting proposals for car rying the mails of the United States to the following places : 1. From New York to Liverpbol, in England, and back, or to Bristol, in Eng land, and back, or to Southiiinpton, do. do; 2. From N.

New Production.-We rresume it is not generally known that ja Corn Broom Manufactory has been in successful:opera tion at this place during the. past year such, however, is the fact, and iis prob ably the only one South of the Potomac. Tie eatablisnient is owned and under the direction of Dr. Crittenden,, whio mann factured five or si* han red slpendid Bsioms last season-eq'at4i iany made in .the U.

We are informed that these Brooms will be furnished, wholesale or retail, as cheap as a similar ar ticle cer lbe delivered in any of the Southern cities. They' edn be had at the Store of Hastie & Nicol, in this town, and probably at oth'er places A sample can also be seens at this office. Dr. C. made preparations for extending the business next year but the drought of the past Summer almost entirely cut off his crop of Broom Corn ; he has raised sufficient, however, to make about 1000 Brooms. Success attend all similar en terprises. say we. - tntenville, Octoberl17.. In noticing these pregnant -.movements the Buffaulo Commtercial Advertiser very properly says: "At every poinat Etngland seems to be stren'gthenting her meatns of offence and dlefence, and there is much reason to be lieve that at no time, within the last qumar ter of a century. have our relations with that power been in a more delicate. if not critical, sit untioua.

There has recently been a great revival in the Meth odist Church, and numbers are anxiously inquiring "jwhat shall~1- do to be saved ?" -many have been savinigly converted. 'the Baptist Church deep anxiety is aelt, and yesterday of 23 expected to come come forward, twelve were baptised by the Rev.- Mr. Hume, the etoqnent and bo lov'ed .pastor of- that congregation. In the Presbyterian Church,- the inifluence of the blessed spirit is deeply felt; iwo were yesterdaj added to the congregation, wvhich last evening was addressed by the Rev. Mr. Stiles, in a straitn of powerful and touching eloquence, which lasted nearly two hours. Mr. Locke. of North ampton Co., Va., a promising young con vert, is to be ordained for the ministry at the Presbyterian church in Portsmouth, this afternoon at 4 o'clock.
