ARRITAL OF TEE STXAK ARA *IA The Steamer Arabia arrived at Halifax, at midnight, on Wednesday, bringing one weeks later news from Europe. IlVERPooL, Oct. 15.-Cotton.-The Arctic arrived out on the 12th. Her news had a fhvo rable-effect on the market, and all qualities ad vanced 1-8d, except infeFior. The market was poorly supplied with Fair and Middling Orleans. The sales of the week were 37,300 bales, of which speculators took 3.500, and exporters 3,250. Fair Orleans 6 5-8d, Middling 5 3-4 to 7-8d; Fair Mobile 6 3.8, Middling 5 5-8d; Fair 'piands 6 14, Middling 5 1.2 to 5.8d. Stock, exclusive of what is on ship board 753,000. The money market is unchanged. Consols for money 9* 3-4 to 92. TURKEY AND RUsSU.-The Sultan announced that if Russia does not evacuate the Principali ties in fifteen days he will commence hostilities. A proclamation of war has been posted up in all the mosques. The combined fleets have been invited to Con. stantinople. The Black Sea is free to neutral flags. THE New York Express referring to the posi tion of England and France in relation to the Koszta afftir says It is important, as a political and historical truth touching the position of two of the princi pal governments of Europe, that the real-state of the ease should be stated. We, therefore, state that Mr. Marcy has been-and in tha case of the French Minister-more than once dis tinctly inforned of the dissent of the two most friendly Powers of Europe, to the doctrines laid down here in tho case of Koszta. We read in our Vienna correspondence of an entire concur rence of opinion among the representatives of the Allied Powers i:: Austria, upon this subject, at a recent interview among them, and we be lieve there has been the same concurrence of opinion at Washington. But be this as it may, we have authority for saying, that Mr. Marcy has been informed by M1r. Sartiges, a second time, that the French Government did not dis approve of the views of Austria in regar,l to Koszta, and that he has been called upon to cor rect the semi-official statement of the " Union," both in regard to the pos4ition of France and England; but he has declined to do so, for the reason that the official statements were made in his alleged absence. The Government, there fore, stands in the position of publishing to the world a state of facts which is not true-to wit: that France and England had been silent specta tors pending the discussion of the question; whereas, both Governments wero prompt and earnest in expressing their views to the Secreta ry of State, with less formality, to be sure, than Ahe more despotic and interested Powers of Eu rope, but neverthvless, with hardly less earnest ness and spirit. . RAILROAD usASI.-On Friday evening, (14th,) about dark, the large locomotive loca. hontas, drawing a train of loaded ears, ran off the track at_ Schuylkill Haven, at the bridge, plunging down an enbankment of some twenty feet, draggging with it some dozen cars, which. together with the locnmotive, were much broken. But the most remarkable incident of this accident is the miraculous escape of two men, who were seated in the express office at the time, a small building standing about two feet from the track, and diree:ly in the path of the engine. The house was pitched down the bank, and split in two, with the locomotive fast upon it, and the men, who were quiet ly smoking their cigars at a comfortable fire, rolled out at a crack made by the conenssion, and escaped with a few slight bruises. There was a can of Iluid in the otlice, which enught fire immediately, Coll suming the bUildint, books and palpers, the flames extending so furiously as to bar all efforts to save them. TIhe engineer and fire men jumped from the engine in time to escape unhurt. THE Hon. Andrew .Johnson wvas inaugarated Governor of the State of Tennessee on the 17th instant, in the presence of both Houses of *the Legi-lature and a number of the citizens. The late Governor, the Hion. William B. Ca'mp bell, took part in the ceremonies of inaugura tion, and in a chaste, brief, and dignitied vale dictory, (as we learn fronm thle Nashiville Whlig) resignecd back into the hanmds of the people and their representattives the high official trtust con - farred upon him two years ago. Gov. Johnson followed with an inauguxral address of consid erable length, defining and explaining sonme of the tenets of the political faith which he de fenids and represents. ,The oath of office was administered by Hon. Won.K. Turner. I. 0. 0. F.-The Grand Lodge of the 1. 0. 0. F. of~ British North America, having easedi to exist, an application wats ma~de by the mem bers of the Order to the Gratnd Lodge of the Utni:ed Sgates, to resume its jurisdiction over Car-ada, and at the annual Communication of the latter body, held in September last, Wihmot G. DeSauasure, Esq., thxe Grand Sire of the order, wv.ts instructed to piroceed to Canada, and ma~ke suchx arraxngenments as he should think the cir eutmstances required. Accordingly, Mr. De Samussure proceeded on his mission to Canada. from whence he has just returned. and we learn that he haxs issued a iroclamn:tion, declaring that the 1. 0. 0. F. of Canada is now under the ju risdiction of the Granmd Lidge of thte United States.-South Carolinian. THE E1PRaEsS or FttAscE.-A correspondent of the Mornuing Post, describing the appearance of the Empress of France at the ball given at Boulogne, says: " The grace and beauty of thle Empress was observed to the fullest advantage. Hecr fatultless delicacy of feature, and the ele gance of her figure, were welt displayed by a very echaste costume of white laxce, ornamented with ribbons of viulet color, falling hal-way down the skirt. The headdress was exquisitely beautiful. Her maj hair is of a beautiful digt-brown tint, am as disposed in tasteful rolls over the forem , leaving disclosed the ears, from wvhich diamonds were pendent. 11cr m-ajesty wore a diamond necklaxce of marvellouis brilliancy, every stone of which rettected its my riad hues. and a pair of somewhat snmall brace lets en suite. A SMAr.L FAMJn..-Theo Fort Smith (Ar kansas) Herald says there is a man residing in that couxnty, named .John T. Norton, who has been married three times, and is thme fathmer of twenty-nine children-mine boys and twenty daughters. He is sixty-nine years of age, and was a langer in the last wvar. Hie is a native of Aunherst colmty, Virginia. Sur.Er fGOLD- La~s.-The Petershurgh (Va.) Demomrcrat states that a tract of land containing 1090 acres, was sold recen'ly in Orange county, by Mrs. Coalton, of Chaxtham, for $30,000, upomn terms equivalent to cash. The tract is in the gold region, and was purchased by one of the memabers of an English company, which is work. ing Liberty mine, in the samte neighbourhood.I FIRE.-The extensive lumber mills near Mo bile, in which John Forsyth, late of Columbus, Ga., is interested, were destroyed by fire on the 17th inst. Thle loss is estitmated at $20,000, of which oly $H1,000 were insured. THE London Morning Advertiser speaks or a new and insproved construction of vessels, by means of which it will be perfectly practicable to accomplish the voyage- between Ireland and America in three and a half days, between the ports of Gal way and Halifaix; and the Advertiser 6r . that the trtith of its statement, has beeni . >eghl establishedby expedimantk. No de ..re given dr hinted at, and the story is en-' . ty too mxysteriotus for himself. A CoRREsPOxNDENT of thme Baltimore Patriot, 'lioticing the late purchmasei of a splendid caxrpet, in Europe, for the President's house, at a cost of $2,400, states that the last carpet pturchased for that purpose was of American manufacture, and asks whly we should go to a foreign land for at carpet for the White House, when, as good, if no better, san be got at home. GOOD Huno.--Good humor is a bright col or ill the web- of life; but self-denial ,only eatm make it a fast color. A person who is thn slave of selfishness has so many wants of his owvn to be supplied, so mnany interests of his own to support and. defend, that he hats no leisure to study the wants and interests of others. It i:4 impossible that he should be happy himns~lf, or maken others around him so. B'USINESS IN ABBEVILE.-We have been fur nished by the politeness of Mr. Sondley, Depot Agent, with the following flacts. They will show that Abbeville will soon become an it portant market' Our cotton buyers are now fairly in the fiehl, and will pay a liberal price. The.total receipts of cotton at this place during tie -season, nrn 721 bales.

A REMARKABLE WVoMsAN.-There is now re siding in Bowling green, Kentucky, a wnan1 o' color who is the mother of nineteen children, the youngest of whom is now in his sixty-eight year. This old woman says she heard the first cannon fire at Yorktown, and that the revolu tionary days, with all of their trials, seem bat as yesterday. She ret:iins stipngtlh sufficient to go about, and is indeed an i teresting relic of the past. ONE hundred young men left Richmond, Maine, last week, en route- for Kentuckyf where they intend to cut-timber and build vessels. EXTEN'T op LoNDoN.-The capital of the British Kingdom, it is Wnid, extends over an area of seventy*ight thousand and twenty nine acres, or one hundred -and twenty-two square miles; and the number of its inhahitants, rapidly in creasing, was two millions three hundred and sixty..two thousand two hundred and thirty-six on the day of the hst census. ?T is said that cars on railways are all-to be hung in black inl future-like other hearses. Ely ahntim.r ARTHUR SIMKINS, EDITOR, EDGEFIELD, S. C. WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 2, 1853. V1 O Sunday, 13th inst., the Rt. Rev. Dr. DAvis will hold an Ordination at Trinity Church in this village. The rite of Confirmation will be ad inistered on the same or the preceding day. t-P PLFASE turn to Jossrru -WmmLDEN's adver tisement. It will be seen that he offers at No. 601 East Bay, Charleston, Paints, Oils, Glass &c., in any quan tity to suit purchasers. We advise the- reader to look over the various-ad vertisements of sales which are soon to come off, thoue by M. L. Boxn.ux, Admin., the. ommissiqeryand others. Great chances these, for pe1-ons who ore look ing out for lands, negroes and the like. Steam-Mill flxtraordinary. WE paid a visit the other day to the new Steam Mill of CHIatSTIE & M110Is within four miles of our village, and must take this occasion to record our high satisfaction of what we there witnessed. Te machinery was built and put in operation by Mr. Gr.oiav SINCLAIR, of Columbia S. C. To say that it is creditable to him as a mechanic is but mea gre praise. We do not exaggerate in asserting that it entitles him to a high position among the members of his craft. Every part of it is perfect and the whole has been put together with the skill of a master work man. As an evidence of this, five hands can at this mill, turn out lumber at the rate of one thotsand feet per hour with a single circular saw. This was done in our presence with apparent ease. True merit ever deserves commendation ; and we should be lacking in our duty as a gazetteer, did me fail to notice the excellent handi-work of Mr. i x CLAIR as exhibited in the Steam-Mill of CntiSTir & 3Mists. We advise the owvners of Piney Woods throughout Edgefield to turn their attention to Steam M1ills. Well conistructed and properly managed, they must pay. ___ Guano. Bo Cautious ! A learned gentleman front Maryland lecttured one day at the late Augusta Fair tupon thc snh'ject of soils, manutres &c. We did not hear him throughout, as we were otherwise occupied a part of the time. A gentleman, who, listened to the lecturer miuch mnore patiently than wen did, informs us that he annouinced the broad opinion, that Guano wouud soonter or later impoverish any soil to which it might be applie~d. This takes us aback all at once. We were just abott ordering enough of the article to cover over a fifteen acre wheat field, andI now-. Who's got any cotton-seed for sale!i Glad to see it. A late number of the Charleston - ME'rcury, speaks of the first turn-out and vcry handsome appearance of the MIontgomery Guards, a new volunteer corps under the conmmandl of Capt. Wri.t~t Loner. Capt. Locus was for some years a citizen of Edge field, where he made many friends by his gentlemanly deportnent. We are pileased to see him takinig his poition among the aspiring yountg metn of Charles ton ; and hope for him a successful cnreer. This he will be nmore than apt to command, if Fortune frowvn not ttpon him too severely. The Nassau Litorary Magazine. A young friend of oturs, now in Princeton College, senls us a copy of the above periodical with thte re quest that we "notice." We do so cheerfully. The M3agazine is a ver y handsome pamiphlet, is puhlished monthly at Princeto's and edited each month hy some member of the Senior Class, no one occupying that post for more than one issue. Any member of the class has the right of contributing to its columns at any time. The Editor for September senms to have been hard rnn, if wve may judge from the very jum bledt dish of gossip we find' itn his department. Of the contributionis in this nutmber, we shuuld say that the one upon she character of Ingo is en titled to the palm; it is briefly and forcibly drawn.. Some 'uch publication as this might be adva ita geoushy established in our own College, for the early exercise of the talents of those who are to be the future editors, critics and authors of the State. Origin of Names. Wisr. men are so'mctimes great fools, and good writers are not uinfregntently very stupid. fin a late nutmber of the Southern Reciew, may . he found an elaborate article in which, amo~ng oilher thuings, con siderable space is occupied with a sort of disqnsitiun upon the origin of sundry names of places, rivers and thmngs. Thte writer finids that Clineh Rtiver is so called because a fellow, who was crossing the streamn on a raft with some others, toppled over into the water and in his terror cried out to his companaions " Clinch toe-clinch me !" This is about equal to the supposition that " Poco taligo" sprung from the circumstance of a low-ecnun try African having observed to some of the old set tiers, who had discoverec a mammoth terrapin on the spot which now bears that name and were trying to coax it into crawling,-" Poke her tell he go !" A nd i is decidedly inferior to the legend which tells that Savannah river derived its name from act of a pretty girl, whose name was ANNA, It g fallen out of a pleasure boat "in the old times," upon which startling occurrence all aboard simultaneously exclaimed-" Save ANxA !" " Submission Men." A " Sotithern Patriot," of late date, exults in the reflection that, whatever parties may have heretofore existed in South Carolina, now all, ALLt are "sub mission men" And its even too true. But some have become so from choice, brother Patriot, while others are placed in that category Ay the dire force-of circumstances. Corn in Dast Z'lorida. Tsar. only serious objection we have heard urged against this n ow favorite part of Florida, is the great uncertainty of tihe provision crop. We were speaking on this point the other day to a neighbor of ours, when ie informed tus that a nrutual friesi of s both (who has a plantation in that part of the coontry) had made this year ff!y bushels per acre throughout his entire crop. This is magnificent-enough to make "Jtm VACGus " hinmself smile with satisfaction. We are glad to, hear of such success,--hope somebody may make such crops forev- - -id a day. While a gentleman comes in from our? 's us that a caravan Judgo O'Neall Again, Perforce! IT seems to be our fate to run against his Honor, the "Faher Matthew of South Carolina," whether we wish it or not. Only two weeks since, we fairly knuckled down to the old veteran, and that too, as we thought, in the most respectful terms. We supposed then that the arms of our rebellion were finally ground ed. Yet here we are, again led on by our evil genius into the lion's lair. This timte,lhowever, we are in ex cellent mood and propose to say nothing caleulated to offend the most delicate nerve of his -Ilonor's sensi bility. We would only " write a word or two to ease our conscience " as a set-off to the following remark of the Judge's which is the latest fling ie has made at us. We copy from a letter of his, addressed to the editor of the "Temperance Advocate," from Barnwell Court-house. October 18th.-Yestenlay I eharged the Grand Jn ry, as usual; and again, notwithstandling the Adver tiger's censure, ventured pretty strongly to recommend the Maine Liquor Law. I think our friend of the Ad. vertiser will fMid that lie is in this, ashe was in politics, somewchqi mistaken. This " politics" of ours, to which allusion is here made, must be the advocacy of Secession which clta racterized our_?iftble sheet during the year 1851. If we areirbi in this supposition, we grant his Honor that we were mistaken, egregiously mistaken in our first calculations as to the result of the memorable but unfortunate contest of that year. The cause of our mistake was the taking for granted that South Caroli nians in '51 were one and the same in mind and spirit with South Carolinians in '32. In this particular, our reckoning proved utterly erroneous, and we were de ceived as. to the whole result. But mistaken or not, we rejoice to remember that we were, in our " poli tice," with those who sought to illustrate the doctrine of State sovereignty and maintain the high character of South Carolina by a determined course of resistance to the aggressions of an unscrupulous majority. But the Judge thinks that we are again to be " mis taken," and that the Maine Liquor Law is to be the next grand achievement in our State. We don't know that we ever sail it would not be. South Carolinians are getting akbut, as low-down in their notions as the people of-any other State; and we shall not be much surprised if they shotid think it "all right" for one, clothed with the almost-sacred robe of justice, to preach the doctrines of bigots and fanatics from the Bench. Neither would we be astounded, should this Circuit Crusader succeed in getting up a movement of some sort throughout the State in favor of those doctrines. We will not pretend to say whether. it will succeed-or fail, lest we might be "mistaken." By the way, speaking of " mistakes," we rather think hii Honor is about as liable to them as most men. In his first letter to the Temperance Adrocate, from Edgefield, which we published some two weeks ago, he says (in his zeal togcompliment the,North) .hat-Joinx ADAs first advanced the idea of our In dependence and led the way. This is a mistake for which we think the learned Judge has no excuse. Besides betraying a singular ignorance of the history of his country, his mistake is against his own section RicnAaD 1[EsnY LEE and PATRICK HF.nRY of Virginia, and CHtaIsTortEa GADSDEN of this State were :he first men in America ever known to speak of -eparation and independence. Besides it was not Jois ADA31S of 31assachusetts %%ho first led off'there, but Sumuel Adams, if history be correct. As far back as 1765, eleven years before the Declaration of Independence, there was a Convention held in New York to prepare for concerted resistance, and South Carolina was the only colony South represented there. She had the chairmen of three committees in that body. And yet the Judge undertakes to instruct the country that the North led off In the great cause of Independence, and, what is still more absurd, that thcreforc we muit now follow the Yankees in the lead they have taken in the Temperance cause. And here his Honor blunders into another " mistake." The Yankees are not the leaders in Temnperatnce. If it is the real Simon Pure leader in Temperance that his Honor is wanting, he must go to Mahomet himr-elf, who is after all tihe Great Father of Temperance soci eties and TIemperance laws. He made it a fundatmen tal rule of his religion that his disciples shottld never touch~ one drop of wine, and did it too, doubtless, by' wvay of contrast to Christ, who turned water into good wine as ins first miracle. The great falt of the 3Ma hiommedan Rteligion is that it mnakes every thitng turn upon the observnce of certain forms and abstinience rfom woinc. So, with TIempheranoe societies--they will take temnperance as a substituta for vital religiod. The tendency of the thing is to make men satisfied with the external observatnce of certain'conventional rides, thereby letting humanity downr from a high and holy communion of the heart with its Maker. There are mtteh loftier virtues thtan simple abstinence from strotng drink. Elevated piety is as much above mere Tem. perantce morality, as is the sublime Religion of Christ superior to the sensial creed of Mahiomet.--But .Judge O'N.EL, and his followers seek to lead mankind to sobriety and morality by othier meanis tihan those which Chrnist -has satnctioned. Perhaps thte Judge ssilt say we are " mistaken " in this also. We shall see. From the Hamtburg Rcpttblcan.

EDIToR: Permit ngthe courtesy through your columns, (where it appeared) a reply to the very extraordinary coimu ientioni of .oins Toair JE, dated 13th .A ugust las and which accidently caine to my notice but a fe -days since. It is with great reluctance, that a se e of duty due alike to myself those I represent,- d- thoo representing m se, a well as respect fur th memory of a deceased .rther, impels me to notide e communication re ferred to; and I do so al for the purpose of correcting any erroneous pressions which may have been made on the pub' mind, by the abusive false statements and msrep entations, which his article contadned in re!atia the acts of himself and others, in connection w the transaction re ferred to. In reference to his twicewepeated and uncalled for allusion to the intemlietitt4 habits of my de ceased father, I have oply guday, that from my tender infancy at the t 'have no personal knowledge as to VIe tIrAlud i s i1, but in either event, I doubt n ta a ' tniaidang publip will awad to him th. merit due '.d sacraleging the ashes of a deceasee relaIgi, opecially when the object is so plainly infepble. The object of the *rler #tllat article at the time, in connection with i place of publication, cannot rationally be conceive , ho not itaving been arraigned at the bar of. Aubia opinion in Edgeeld District, but that of a 1*af unM, of a sister State, except perhaps that stne- f his friends in the vicinity of the publicati, sso are liable fAir tile eventu-il condemattiation, n tie Jproceeding referred to, iay have lid misgivings as to the final result and their ultimate liabilty ; and hence lie resorted to the expedient of pr ucng. a concocted plausible version of the transa 'on for quieting their fears. till he could ursxtspec4ugly Adive the jurisdiction to which lie was bound, ind efretk a safe retreat to his Western home. In the article referred to, refer ence is made to deeds and other instruments which the writer is not eistent with letting speak for themselves, but ingeniously jattenpts, by the rela tion of alleged verbld statements aid agreements, entirely to change their true import. This is not presumed to have been a palt cf the- legal advice, which lie reerivedfrom Augusta's then best law yer, alluded to by bim. That the publiO, to whom he has appealed, may be fully and correctly informed, as to the true state of facts and circumstances attending the transac tion (not as expiained by his alleged verbal agree ments) from the solemni acts of the parties, reduced to writing at the time, under their hands and seals, the phain rehearsal of them is made with the re su!t of Iis unauthorised acts in the rights and interests of the orphan children of my father, whose memory hc attempts to desecrate. In what I have -o say as to facts, they speak for thlemselves, being taken,from the record, having before me duly aultenticated copies of the two first deeds to which I shall .zlludp, and the originals of the others. It is ue, that xa7 J t1h 'Jda Atgust, I836, FaANKT 'ourliyt; father) ex uted to Jons ToMriNs, two deeds, one f* the Qiniker Springs tract of Land, for The consideration of $3,00), and the other for 26 negro slaves, 5 mules, 2 wagans, 4 horses. I yoke of oxen, 12 head of cattle and 2.5 hogs, for the consideration of $12,000. But it is not true as stated by him, that Joon Toseixiss gave the widow of FRANK ToIrciss. at that or any other time, such insttruments as he refers to in that connection ; but onl the contrary, on the 29th day of the sante month and year in which deeds referred to were executed, he executed and delivered to FRANx To.triciss, Eimtiultaneoialy, with the surren d:r of the deeds, an instrument by which lie ac knowledged that lie " relinquished till the right, title and elaimi to sundry property, deeded to him by F. ToMPKINs, to wit: The Quaker Springs tract of Land, and all the slaves named in a bill of sale', together with all the mules, horses antd hogs, and two wagons, by whicl iistrtt(ent it was certitied. That lie had gi ten all of said property tip, the contract beinig nelCNDED by consent ofall parties." These were the tranaftions between FRANK Toasi.'Kts and .Jon TossrKc:Ns, during the lfe-time of the L..rme~r, as appecars from the documents thiem~selves. On thea. surrender of thme two deeds and the execution of the inastfumenelt last referred to, they all wecnt into the possession of FRaNK Troalrgtss, and remained among his papers till after htis death.

CM-INTmtsTING EXTRACT. Wi take the following extracts from an an thentic work, published by Mr. Williams, who, from a long residence in China, has been ena liled to write knowingly upon the various sub jects embraced in his work: " The denseness of the population has long since driven out all wild quadrupeds: and there are also few domestic ones, such as are found in Eastern count riess. Beasts of burden are in a great degree super.seded by the means of trans port affordeI by the numerous rivers iid canals and by the coolies or Porters, a cla's of athletic men, who take the place of animals in carrying burdens and in dragging boats. Animals are ex eluded, to leave more food formnen.. There;are no neadows for feeding cattle ; but the.ptire -il is ui-ed in faising food for the inihabi ts. Wild-gtts are sometimes caught, and consi red a great dainty. WMinkevsi.are foundin the Sdith west provineis. What few hors aind asses -are found in China are small, and very inferior in every respect. The buThlo is -dmetimes used in plowing. Dromedaries are used between-Pe kin and Tartary. Tnere are also hogs, goats and sheep. There is but one variety of dogs in the country, an anital about one foot high and two long resembling a small spaniel. Raits are very abundant and furnish the common people with meat. They are very large and destructive to crops, Of the birds in China, there are the eagle, the falcon, the magpie, crows, sparrows, cormorants,. vurlews, quails, pigeons, larks, pheasants, the rico bird, and many species of aquatic birds. Cormorants are used by the Chinese ft.r catch ing lish. The falcon is imperial property, and the magpie is sacred to the reigiing family. Fish forni a very important part of the food of the Chinese,and'great care is taken in raising them in artificial fish ponds. The gold and sil ver fishes are kept in glass globes as ornaments. Among the fish eaten are the col, sturgeon, mullet, carp, perch,sea-bream, &c,; er.b fish and oysters are common on the coast. . The larger species of reptiles are unknown in China. Frogs. lizards, and fresh water tortoises are common. Venomous serpents are very rare. China lproper contains 1,300,000 square miles, and the dependencies, which cover an area of the whole etmpire, 5 30,000 square miles. Though the depindt-ncies, conisting of Chinese Tartary, Thiblet, Little Bucharia, and the peninsula of Corea, are three times the extent of China it sell, in other respects they are vastly inferior to it, being in great proportion comparatively des erts, withi a straggling and rapacions population, petlaps altoget her not one-tenth in number of thote of China proper." JUVFst LE PRECOCITY.-The Tyler (Texas) Telegraph of a late date, has the following ie count of a " smart boy." A good deal has been said of late about the precocity of American youth, but all that we have seen of them is completely outstripped by a " Mexican " boy of San Anonio. He attempt ed to vote at the late election, but from his youthful appearance his vote was challenged, and it was proven oti oath that he was but thir teen years of age. The Ledger says that ie has a wife and child one year old, and for the sake of gratifying curiosity, the editor of that paper was led to consult a physician on the subject, and was assured that this ' boy ' could not have been exceeding eleven years old at the time of his mamrrmgie. What vill our little sharcrs, who exult at the idea of sporting a puny moustache before they have attained the height of a common wa'king canc, think of this- exctraordeiry youth, wiho hase so eairly taken upon haimself the respnibilinties of ltie," amid wiho re-joiceas in theL appelltioni of "father," wihilst they catnnot procure a cogno nien iore dignifie thanthat t of Little Bub. .mi.-.Tantree presemin1g bishops, 3leads, 3lellvaine, and Bure.,s, who were coinspiuou~s itt the trial of Ilishop Doante at Camdent, piublishi a card in thle C horeb jottr nail of Friday, stating that thIoughl t hey haive agreed to submit to the decision of the benich of bishops, they have not relinqni.,bed their oriinaol opuinint, thait thle d ismissalI oh thle pre settmment was reptignant to their setise of buith leg:Ial m:d moiraul propriety.
