What a Country.
The number of square miles in the United
States is estimated at 2,801,153, and the
population at 23,101,787. The most thickly
settled State is Massachusetts, where the
inhabitants average 137 to the squaro mile,

only averages 25. If the, entire country
was only as thickly populated as the State of
Massachusetts, its inhabitants would nnml>er
8D6,08Y,961 ! And yet the old bay
State is not so thickly so tiled, only contain-1
ing about 1,000,000 of tho people. Won't
it be a great country, when it gets settled,
well fenced, and boarded over.

Gadsden treaty, winch, if ratified will greatly

Santa Anna's Victohy.?An official bulletin
issued by the commandanto of the revolutionary
forces at Aoapulco, dated May
12, gives a different color to the so-called victory
of Santa Anna. The following is a summary
of the answer, it gives to the report issued
by order of Santa Anna, in which he
claims to have defeated the 44 Tacciosor" at
the "Venta de Peregrino:"
"After pursuing the" retreating troops of
Santa Anna for some days, a detached portion
of the division of the liberating army
under Gen. Alvarez, came up with the
enemy on the heights of the 44 VintA de Peregrino,,"
and after an engagement which lasted
over three hours, and m winch tho artillery
of the Government troops at lenarth cave
I them the upper hand, the main body of the
detachment of Alvarea arrived, and in the
course of .another hour and a half the rear
guard ofPuita Anna abandoned its positions,
and fled to . distance of about three miles,
leaving behinu them altogether' over 300
mult* and horses, with sundry stores and
arms. On th? 7th May, Santa Anna left
Chilpantzingo, and his troops at a later date
suffered a defeat in the pass of Mcsoala, with
a loss of about 100 loaded mules."
L We are inclined to think mora of the com|
snandenta statements than that of Santa AnI

X SR. WILLIAM A. SMITH, OF VA.
There are some men who aro not only
great in deed,.but who look great. Such n
wait, we presume, was Martin Luther. It is
impossible to conceive of the great reformer
as a puny little man, with, narrow chest and
cracked voice, lie must have been a broad
shouldered giant, who stood upon' teg* of
brow, with a voice which shook the old German
Cathedrals like the roll of distant thunder,
and a face luminous with intellect and
crowned by a brow on which authority sat
enthroned. No other man would have
dared to lay his hands upon the pillars of
the Church of Home, which then bestrode
the world like a Colloesus, and shake down
the proud arches which they supported ; or
if he had, the world wouhl have luughed at
liiin for his presumption.
Just such a man is Dr. William A. Smith,
of Virginia. He is only about five feet and
a half liigh, hut his frame is largo and knit
together with mi&clcH of steel. lie is the
embodiment of strength,and looks as if he defied'the
wear of labor. Ills face and forehead
arc broad and massive, and his clear blue
eye has an undaunted look. Ho stands
orpct. 1)1M111 llift fnpf Willi Ilia lion/1 llvI-Aien
back, and looks out upon nature and up to
tlie heaven* with such unblencbing bravery,
that one is almost lead to think that his
mind has struggled with nil mysteries, and
his heart wrestled with all power*, and found
nothing above bis capacities. Yet time has
left its mark upon him. He is slightly lame
nnd limps in his walk; his light hair has
fallen from his brow! but their defects do
not in tho least impair tlio majesty of his
presence, they are but the sears of the veteran.
Add to these rare gifts a loud, oretund
voice, which vibrates upon the air like
the peal of an organ, and you have before
you the intellectual giant of "Methodism, and
the beau ideal of Anglo-Saxon manhood.
l)r. Smith is a Virgininn by birth. His
father was u merchant, but died insolvent
while he was a boy. He was bound apprentice
to a shoemaker, but was soon afterwards
released from the articles by a Mr. Kussell,
who had received great favors fron\ the father,
and offered a place in his store.?
This offer lift rlftftlillAif Imvini* nml.Mn/ul ./>
ligion aiul detorniined to devote himself to
the gospel ministry. Ilis early educational
advantages were limited, but by dilligentapJdication
and tire force of native intellect, he
ins made himself a scholar, and in now the
Ruccossor of Dr. Olin in the Presidency of
liaudolph Macon College, Va., and it is a
very general opinion that the college has suffered
no detriment by tire change.
The Methodist connect ion have longknown
and appreciated the Jofty intellect of this gifted
man, but he was never known to the
country nt large until the fanatical spirit of
the North, upon the subject of slavery brought
tho North aud South in collision in 1844.?
He then stood forth the champion of the
South in the defence of Harding, and bore a
prominent part in all the debates of the General
Conference which effected the division of
the church.
it:- J i A- I i
inn ihivikxiuhi uocujpuiviivs roar a cuise
resemblance to those, of Calhoun, of whom he
is evidently a disciple, and it is believed by
uiany that he is in no respect his inferior.?
Our readers have had the pleasure of reading
in provioui.issues of our journal, an abstract
of two lectures delivered by him in
this city on the subject of slavery. They
were characterised by great depth and origi-1
nality of thought, comprehensiveness of view
and thorough analysis of principles. He sees
at once into the heart of a subject and lias
the remarkablo faculty of making the most
abstruse reasoning palpable to the commonest
comprehension. It is to be regretted that
he has not long since published hisdiscourses
upon slavciy. We are satisfied that they
are the most masterly defence of southern
institnttais which have ever been delivered.
We are pleased to announce that ho will give
them to the public at his earliest convenience.
It may astonish our readers that a man
so eminent was not elevated to tho Vishopic
by tho last Uenerul Conference. This will
not surprise us when wo recollect tfiat Calhoun,
Clay and Webster, were passed by to
mako room for inferior men by the American
people. Intellect is imjierious, and scorns to
conciliate whefc it cannot convince. Besides,
little men are not able to comprehend great
men, and, are sure to misinterpret them, and
therefore fear thcin.?Columbui Time*.
The Pacific Railroad.
The debate on this question in Congress
will probablv last during the present week.
It is stated that their is scarcely any possibility
that the measure can become a law
at the present scssiou. The Washington
Star says:
"V? e have previously stated various reasons
why it is useless for the friends of the
measures to hope for favorable action upon
it at this time, which we need not rci>oat
now. As far as we can perceive, all its
friends in Congress are perfectly aware of
this fact, and regard its present discussion
simply as paving the way for inducing the
public mind to take earnest hoi J ou the subject.
There are at least a dozen d liferent
squad* of speculators, each watching to urge
this or that scheme for it, only in tho hope of
making money for themselves ont of it, and
we fear more or leas members of Congress,
who think more earnestiy of particular
scheme* for it also, as hobbies on which they
may continue in public life, than on the
grand object of achieving aome successful
Pacific railroad enterprise or other. All
such embarrassment must surely be separated
from it before tho Government of the
United States wiH ever become identified with
any Pacific railroad enterprise.

Several army officer* were this morning
engaged at tlMfcursenal in testing the qualities
of a newly invented rifle, or, more properly
speaking, a rifle cannon, submitted
to government for examination and Approval.

'l"ho bai roll is about three feet in length,
weighs eighty pounds, aud carries one inch
boll, weighing five ounces, and also and explosive
ball, which discharges its contents the
instant it strikes any object. Hie riflo was
tried at a target, right hundred and fjgti/
yards distant, about half a mile, and with
great accuracy, nearly every shot taking effect
; so far we learn it has given every satisfaction,
though the report to tho ordinance
department in regard to it has not boon
made known.
The instrument was invented by Mr. Gilbert
Smith, of Now York, and tfie advantage
claimed for it is accuracy in filing at a
long range, and tho power it possesses of
destroying tho magazines, stores, Ac., of the
eneuiy, while nt tho name time; for its long
shot, it is itself beyond tho reach of hartn.?
The rifle itself is very effective af a distance
of 1,200 yards, but its accuracy is greatest
at a lesser distance. There are many other
points of interest connected with it, to which,
from i>eculiar circumstances, wo cannot allude,
but we may mention, that if the statements
made in regard to it be true, which
we have every reason to believe is the case,
it is one of the most death-dealing machines
ever devised.?New York Times.
The Southern Methodist Church.
The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin pays
the following deserved compliment to the
late General Conference of the M. E. Church
South:
44 Having personally boon witness of part
of the proceedings of his important religious
body wc arc nble to sp?^tk understandingly
of the admirable harmony and good feeling
that prevailed am ig the members, and the
high ability manifested in the discussion of
the various questions that came before them.
Wo have rarely seen on assembly that combined
with eminent religious feeling so large
a share of practical knowledge, especially in
relation to the wants and the resources of
the South. The debates on the location for
the various church establishments were participated
in bv men, who, in spite of their
training and habituation to the offices of a
minister of the gospel, exhibited an acquaintance
with secular atfairs, with commerce and
trade, that is rare even araontr our s?;iinimnrf
and rare indeed among the large class of
preseut-day ]?oliticians who pretend to statesmanship.
No one could nave listened to
them without Wing impressed with the intelligence
and wisdom of the South, and its
vast practical valuo as n wing of our confederacy.
We anticipate most nappy results to
the South, and to the causo of religion every
where, from the uction of the Conference."
The Conference and Slavery.
^fijt will please many of our Southern friends
uvread the subjoined article clipjied from the
Constitutionalist:
On the 25th ult., (says the Columbus
Times) the Conference acted upon the report
of tho committee appointed upon the 9th
Section of the Discipline. It will gratify the
friends of the church everywhere in the South
to learn that tho 9th Section waa expunged,
as well as all other parts of the Discipline
which condemned the institution of slavery.
The general rule forbidding "the purchasing
of men, women and children, with the intention
to enslave them," and which has reference
to the African slave trad?, waa retained,
though the vote upon the expugnation even
of this ltulo, was 57 to 54.
The Methodist Church has thus plaeiintself
upon scripture foundations upon this subject,
and doscrvos and will receive the commendation
of the Southern people for its bold
and manly assertion of the apostolic doctrine
upon this vexed oueation in the face of tho
insane clamors of a wild fanaticism which
has substituted its pulling philanthropy fot
the word of Cod.
Summary of Russian Disasters.?The
balance is already turning against Russia.
The Russian soldiers in tho Dobrudscha (as
we foretold some time ago) are dying off
iiko rouen sneep. mo inhabitants of Fokschany
have risen in their rear, and burned
their military stores. The accounts we published
some days a^o of victories gained over
them at several points on the Dauubo are
confirmed. The military defences and military
stores at the Ru.-^iuu Liverpool on the
Euxine, Odessa, have been destroyed. The
Russian Black. Sea fleet is coojied up ...
Sebastpool. Tho Circassions have, without
losing a moment, occupied and begun to ropair
the forts on their coast, dismantled and
deserted by their invaders. The French have
already sents arm to theso gallant mountaineers,
and the English arc aoout to sehd an
accredited agent to Schamyl. These multiplying
disasters of" Russia in tho south, if

the allies, will soon diaabiiso the Russian
people of gh- misconceptions Instilled into
them by official rejx>rts of their government
representing defeats* as victories. In the
north, too, affairs look lowering on the Autocrat
lie has declared St Petersburg1 in a
state of siege, and the suffering and disoontent
of the nobles and merchants there grow
daily more .alarming ; a state of nuuu not
likely to be pacified by an event reported to
us from St. Petersburg,?that on the Oth instant
the Brituh fleet had been seen within
thirty milee or Cronstadt, and that a number
of Ru^iaa^g^nboats bad been oaptured.
Arrangements are progressing in Alexandria
to give Col. Softie a grand salute of 100
guns on his return from $MU>n.

not in favor of repeal. If all this could be
done, and an Anti-Nebraska President elected
in 18o0, the repeal might be effected in
about two years. There is, however, some
danger that before that time the Anti-Nebraska
