AVe have to rcronl a most melancholy
event which occurred on Mie piautation
of iMrs. Po\ve in the immediate
neighlmrhoori of this place on Monday
morning. The facts as near as we can
learn tlieiu were these : Two negro chilrdveii
had heen left in the morning in the
hack room of a hut, the front door oI
w Uicto *ns fastened hy the grown negroes
upon going out to work. lu the file
fflace, which was situated at the partition
heivvcen the two rooms ?f the hut, a log
of light wood had Iwen left witli one end
extending out to the floor. From this
Jog, it is supposed, the fire was communicated
to the front room of the house, and
when the flames brought persons to the
*e>*cuc, and the door was hurst opm?the
whole floor between the door anl the
partition w as on fire, and the children, as
wet untouched, were seen through the
nes and heard railing in the most pitoons
accents, to their mistress and mother
for deliverance?but their rail was in
vain?for the hut Iwing of logs, there was
no communieation possible with them,
lAia-t was practicable in any short time?
J hoy both fell a sacrifice to the devouring
element.

"We have received the first seven num.

cents a number. This work unquestion?1?1y
contains a great mass of information
to the value of which to every one,
let his employment be what it may, the
the price bears no proportion susceptible of
calcuktiom
Wc have recently bad an oppor?unity
to examine tbe "Southern Spelling Iiook "
being one of a serif s of Elementary works
prepared by S. A. Thomas and published
by Babrock of Charleston. We have
ji dislike, almost instinctive, to the praclice
of giving local designations to any
portion of our Literature, and more than
all, to our School Literature. But the
school books used at the south heretofore,
have almost without exception, been prepared
at the North, and they nie becoming
now so anti-southern, not in name
hut in reality, that it is absolutely noces
sary that those having the control of our
Schools should exclude them, whenevci
their place can be supplied. It a serious
evil and rails for the exercise of vigilance
By essays, by speeches, by songs, by pictures,
and by every other means which
can he introduced into a hook, the domestic
institutions of the South are caricntuy
fed, and associated in the minds of our
p?n children, with circumstances of crullty
and crime. If it is desirable that
those institutions should continue, it is
important that no unfounded dissatisfaction
with them should be instilled into the
minds of our population. In this view ol
the subject, we may commend the school
books prepared among us, and the series
now under consideration, this claim
to adoption besides its intrinsic jntrils,
which arc not small.
At the latest dates from Washington, |!
the House of Representatives had passed j'
the Naval Appropriation Bill and had
been under consideration in Committee of ,

l j FIFTEEN DAYS L ITER FROK EUROPE.
Arrical of the Acadia.
; j The Rovul Mail Steamship Acadia '
i reached her berth at Last Boston on Sat- 1
j urday morning, about 5 o'clock, from j '
, Liverpool May 4th, having made her pas- i r
i sage from that port, including her stop, f
page at Halifax, in sixteen and a half t
: da vs. 1
The sfpjtfrship Columbia, from Halifax, <
I arrived at Liverpool on the 19th u!t. t
The pac ket ship Independence, with c
Washington Irving, Ivsq., Minister to (
' Spain, reached Liverpool on the 2d inst. | (
; from New York.
i The proceedings of Parliament do not
! furnish much of interest or importance.
The only important indication from its ^
doings during 'he fortnight preceding the K
sai.ing of the Acadia, is the probability 1
that all the Government measures will r
! ultimately pass both Houses by decisive v
majorities. This is shown by the over- n
, whelming votes by which all the motions t
i of the opposition to defeat and delay them |i
i have been put down. h
J The overland Mail from India and Chi- [
na had brought dates from Bombay to ..
^ t ; ^ i t
March 1st, from Uandahar to the lHtli ol j
February, and to the 14th from China. t|
! The news shows no material change in n
the state of affairs since our last dates. '<
The trade in the manufacturing dis- "
' tricts continued in as depressed a state as
ever. More confidence it was expected I
i would he inspired in the trade generally |a
' as soon as soon as the amended tariff j<
went into full operation. There had been j p
1 some disturbances amongst the workmen j
! in the; mining and manufacturing districts ' u
! which originated in the attempt to reduce *
I the wages of their labor. Quiet had, how- ?
? ever, been completely restored. ,
The accounts of the speculative husi- c
doing in cotton at our last accounts had 1 ii
entirely subsided, and it had had no effect I a
in placing prices permanently higher.? '
i There had been a rise of 1 8 per lb. on the
lower qualities, and it had receded the j.
j same during the fortnight, and was at the
j extreme point of depression that it was f,
! before the extensive sales took place, q
| Good and fair American descriptions were <
j not abundant, and generally the extreme a
! rates quoted at the last arrival were easily J
obtained. In the middling and inferior
qualities a decline of full 1-3 d. per lb. is ,
quoted. Flour was one shilling lower per s
barrel. Money continued plenty and j t
easy. I

Corrcs;>oiidenC(J of the Charleston Courier.
Washington, May 22.
We have a number of small items of
ntelligence, to day, which are not unincresting.
Then Loan has been supposed to be
aken. It has been so announced in the
tews papers and in the House of Repreicntatives.
.Rut we have intelligence,
o-day, that the Loan is not only not taken
>ut ts not likely to he soon taken. After
he passage of the Loan Rill, Mr. Steh.
linsof New York, offered to supply the
government with what money was immeliatcl
v wanted hy it, and to go to Europe
is their agent to procure the money for
he remainder of the loan, on the most
idvantagoous terms?the government to
lave the money advanced here on the
iame terms which might he concluded on
n Europe. This offer was favorably received
and was likely to be accepted,but
vas finally rejected. Next, Mr. Havens,
>f Roston, on the part of some persons
here, offered to take such part of the
oau as the government might immediitely
want at 9*2. and to procure the renaindcrin
Europe on the most favorable
erins. This was rejected. Next, the
tarings and Hope, through their agent,
>ffered to take .six millions of the hum at
15. This also, after l>eing nearly conJuried
upon, was rejected by the government.
Then the Secretary of the Treasiry
sent an agent, Mr. Marks, his son-innw?to
procure three and a half millions
vliich he advertised for. The agent
irought nothing to a conclusion, and the
Secretary went cn himself. The Secreary
was some days in New York, and
lot succeeding there went to Boston,
?
vhere he was at the lastj^lates. In the
ilean time, Mr. Maiks has returned to
he city with the information that the
nan has not been negotiated, am* probacy
with the view to confer with the
'resident on the terms to he accepted in
ase another ofTer ho made.
The Barings and Hope made the best offer
li it lias Linen received, but they will not reew
it. The money cannot begot on as good
erms as at first. The reason is that a distrust
? felt h- re and abroad in the fidelity and sta.
ihty of the Government. This distrust is
ocessariiy increased by the tact that the revnue
is far belmv the current expenditures,

i much doubt whether any revenue bill will
a?p at Jiis pension.
M. ssrs. Wise and Stanley have cornprom?ed
their difficulties, and I presume Mr.
I.anly wdl resume his seat to-inorrow I
upposc he will make a publication of an at.
nr wl ich has attracted so inncii public attention.
Both parties, it is said, made conession??Mr.
Stanly stating tha lie did not
ntend to prrss his horse against Mr. \Vise,
nd Mr. Wise regretting that, in that case,
ie struck him, &e.
Mr. Reverdy Johnson, the only sufT rer in
he affair, is likely goun entirely to recover
rom the injury which he received.
I do not know whether there will he any
uore public discussion of the Rhode lahnd
uestton in Congress. Many have been auxins
to hear Mr. Calhoun's views, particularly
s it is known that he does not agree with
hose advanced by Mr. Allen. Mr. M'Roberts
ias given notice of an intention to introduce
, bill concerning the power of the President
o employ the navy and army to suppress insurrections.
The bi.I was drawn wi:ha view
o the Rhode Maud case, and to prevent the
'resident from interfering in it. There is
uuch conversation or controversy here on the
liffermt points of the question. A South
Carolina member of the democratic party,
aid to an Ohio member of the same party,
a conversation? * then you hold that a ina.
irity of tlie people of the United States can,
t their pleasure, alter the constitution of the
J. States."' "Ye?, I do," wag the reply ?
Then, sir," rejoined the South Carolina
ieinb? r?"you anJ I do not belong to the
ame party."
CO" The Senate has rejected the bill
or refunding to General Jackson, the
ine imposed upon him for imprisoning a
udge, at New Orleans. In the course
f discussion upon the bill, Mr. Preston
iiado the following bcautifull and elouent
remarks,
I.T? (Vvr n.-, InUnnl r.^?m our hit.
IWI (til IMOlHMt IIMIH
t>r party struggles, and going back to
lingle our recollection* and sympathies
ipon tlic battle ground of New Orleans, I
,ot:!d no; i t!:e .no.r?c;i; of fu.'t
i and generous finding with any emotion
. or net inconsistent with tlicm. For one,
my memory and my heart to that scene,
and that time with an intire oblivion of
all the circumstances that have ^operated
ine from, and placed me in opposition to,
General Jackson since. I will detract
from the glory, or diminish my admiration, ot
the illustrations chief, by the retroactive influence
of subsequent even s; but, forgetting
and overleaping the intervening space, I place
mysdf where I was twenty.live years ago,
with the glow of patriotic gratitude and e.xuitin?r
artmir^ti.?> tliaf li,p>n SWnllt-d rllV boS^m, '
enhanced as it wan by personal affection for j
its object. I see him amidst bis victorious i
fellow-soldier#, and in the presence of a city ;
which his skill and courage had rescued from i
rapine and ruin, the theme of all praise, the j
object of all gratitude, the deposit" y of all the }
tribute of the human heart, Uut by the
tran#action (now brought to mind by this bill)
, he was placed as it serrns to me, in a still
higher and nobler attitude. In the very flush
of victory, with his soldiers around him, and j
in the city he had saved, he was summoned 1
to a trial for an imputed misdemeanor ; and I J
confess, Air. President, that, more than the j
battle, it swells my bosom to see h m bend
that laurelled brow before the seat of justice |
?patiently taking its censure, and submitting '
to its award, indeed.it was a very noble:
spectacle and has emblazoned the principle I
of our institutions, that I he military is subor
i?inate to the civil authority, and that a'l men
are eatial before the law. General Jackson,'
however, was not the only person in this gr ind 1
spectacle. There was, too, the representa- I
tive of that quiet authority, which reals upon
an unseen inor.il power. There was the
. Judge who aummoued the General, who pro-1
I nounced judgment upon hint, at such a mo. j
ment, under such circumstances. An English !
Monarch congratulates himsell, and with good
cause, thai he bad
44 A man so lx>M
That dares do justice on my proper ?oh.
And not less happy having such u sou
Thai would deliver up hisgieatn'jss so
Into the hands of justice"
And our Republic may with equal tru'e cotij
gratulnte herself upon liaviug such a Judge and
such a General.
While wo propose to throw & bright and warm
coloring upon one of the figures in this picture,
it is equally the dictatojof tustn, ofaeniiiuen', and
ofjusticn, that we do not thro-v a shade upon
the other* and this, I fear, will or may he tho
case, if wo pass the bill in its present shape,1
without gua.'dirtg il agnnts unjust applications,
or accompanying it with a statement ot thoficts.'
