A cool and bracing breeze, as balmy as the breath of angels, was rather a pleasant way of winding up the storm. The way it rained, though, night before last, was a perfect caution. We desire that that fact should be distinctly understood.

ID" One of the most acceptable presents we have received for a long time was handed in yesterday. Our friend Governor McKean came into our office, bearing under bis arm a pretty considerably large bundle. On opening the package we found it contained an edition of Lord Bacon's Works, in three volumes, got up in very excellent style. We thanked the Governor for his courtesy with uncommon hearti- ness. Bacon's Works have never before been pub-' lished complete in America.

This edition was printed by Carey Hart, of Philadelphia, and is not inferior to the English editions, while it is sold at a much smaller price. If Bacon has been called by some sour-fuced dogmatist the wisest and the meanett of mankind, it is at all events certain that the brilliancy of his intellect has been fully appreciated for some scores ol years, and that his writings are considered a portion of the sounder and less perishable literature of the age. No library is complete without good edition of the Works of Francis Bacon, the acknowledged founder of modern philosophy." McKean Casey, we presume are prepared to supply all their customers. OS" We received a letter from Capt. Burgess, 'of the Swiss Boy, yesterday, informing us that the failure of the mail, the last two days, has been owing to the high water between Mobile and Montgomery.

It as still raining at Mobile, and a mail was not expected through for some days, unless sent down by boats.

It was rafsed on the ground of Mrs. Gilbert, in Carroll county, ond the tree on which it grew produced this season nearly five hundred pears, of sizes varying not greatly from that of the specimen sent us. The little 'sample of. fruit was originally sent to L.

It suggested itself jo our mind that the concluding paragraph of the Advertiser's "first lesson1' was a curious one. Here it is: I We' now come' to thel most extraordinary part of tbis grave purporting Jo be from a body of enlightened physicians. The Board asserts that the VALUE OF ACCLIMATION IS WORTH THE RISK So reckless an assertion demands the severest examination, in our next, we shall, enquire whether it will stand the test of truth." -J If a man intends, to make himself citizen ofKew Orleans, his first duty is to become ac" climated.

Perhaps be remained here -jusl for fiin." The Calm. Juat at the present period of time there is a singular calm "in, the political world. He who.

has watched the signs of the times, diligently, has not failed to discover that the elements of partisanship ore strangely quiet at this juncturet and the boldest speculator is. at a loss to divine what the next three months may bring forth. What bodes it Is this the calm which pre cedes ths storm the portentous gathering to gether of tha clouds ore the tempest 7 Or is it but the lassitude which follows a season of tur moil and deep-reaching agitation never paral lelled since the organization' of our govern ment the mere result of strong growing apathy Not the latter there can be no peace now. The natural propensity, alone, of the people of tbis republic precludes the entertain ment of any such notion. Change is the order of the day each man, woman and child is thoroughly imbued with the desire for some- thin? new:" the frame of society even like a the frame of man is constantly undergoing the process of transformation.

All indications declare, with unerring accu racy, that the approaching session of Congress will be the most stormy experienced for many years. Jt is not easy to see now 11 can oe oin erwise. Congress is divided into three parties the administration party proper, not strong, but increasing the. whig party, split into a thou sand fragments in fact, but nevertheless controlling the action of Congress; and the oppo sition party, in a minority, it is true, but firm, united, vigilant and concentrated, inspirited by recent brilliant triumph, and fully determined to take every decent advantage further to widen the breach in the ranks of their adversaries, fermenting new dissensions, and using every artifice legalized in political warfare, to embar rass the movements and impede the progress of the opposing faction. In this state of affairs, when partisan feelings are, ia fact, excited to the highest pitch, what is to be expected but the wildest disorder, and the most unprofitable species of quarrelling It is easy to perceive that the few months following the assembling of Congress at Washington, will witness the enactment of but few laws for the mere good of thecountry.

Partisan broils, just now, are of far more importance than the interests of the land. From the calm, then, of the present hour, no hope is to be gleaned no information in reference to the future movements among our public servants scarcely information with regard even to the nature of those movements. We 6ee the gloom of the coming storm, but nothing beyond it. Yet can a true American, whose heart beats only for the glory and honor of his native land, doubt the result Let the storm come as the reed, we will bend to its violence, but rise its its fury passes away. And when the clouds are gone, swept before the wind of enlightened freedom, brighter than ever will b4 the landscape.

Disaster may triumph over us Air a season, but in the innate energy, calm resolution, and attachment to the principles of liberty, which characterize the people of America, we find the inexhaustible riches of that fixed hope which, in its very nature, reaches onward to Heaven and eternity Sudden Death.

Can you lend me the Picayune 44 Did you see the Picayune?" What's in the last Picayune are questions which may be heard asked every day. For our part, as we have intimated, we don't relish its wit more than half the time there is too moch of it, (now don't tell us, Mr. Pic, that vou can't return the compliment, for that would be as stale as any thing in Joe M'Her,) yet sometimes it -strikes out a thought that would set Hera-clitus himself to laughing. Our object, however, is neither to censure nor eulogize our friend Pic, but to cell the attention of the reader to one of his queer conceits. It is this President Tyler refuses to permit the arming and equipping of a number of government steamers, because they will operate perse (per sea) over the Union.

BEFORE JUDGE CANONGE. The State vs. S. A. IJile, J.

G. McGee and R. Graig. The prisoners were charged before the Mayor of Lafayette, on Monday last, with feloniously attempting to carry out of the State twelve negroes, belonging to the succession of ene D. K.

Wilson, late of the State of Mississippi. Thrjy were discharged ou the following day, but were immediately arrested by virtue of a warrant, for the same offence, issued by the parish judge of the parish of JelTerson. Yesterday they were removed by- habeas cor pus before the Criminal Court for the first ju dicial district of Louisiana. The point taken by the coubsel for the defendants -whs, that the heirs had a right, under the Civil Code, to take possession of the property of the succession immediately upon the death of the iutestate; and that the accused were the bona fide agents of the heirs, who were present, sanctioning their proceedings. For the Slate it was contended, that the only mode of proving who were the heirs, was by the records of the Probate Court, which has exclusive jurisdiction over matters of that nar ture.

Judge Canonge held that parole proof of heirship waa inadmissible, and 4hat therefore the taking of the negroes must be regarded as -The parties were thereupon required to find bail for their appearance at the Criminal Court' in the iain of $1000 each.

Tbat pair of sage, sable, cele brated friends and philosophers, Sam Jonswg and Pete Gumbo, met last evening on the neu tral groitnd.

As they had not bad a similar pleasure' for several weeks before, it may be well imagined that their greetings were mutu ally cordial, and their topics of conrersation learned and philosophical as usual. "Da's one ting, Pete," said Sam, "dat en-croces white folks idears considerationnbly for sum time, dat I hasn't got de comprehensibility, orde hang ob.as wulgar niggers say.

The prose of reality is often more touching than the poetry of fiction. We witnessed a scene in Chartres street, yesterday, that affected more than all we had read in Milton's Paradise Lost of The fruit of tbat forbitldea tree Wboae taate brought death into the world, With lost of Eden, and all our woes." A young, dark-eyed, sun burned Spnniard was carrying along 44 Adam and Eve," done up in plaster of Paris. Just as he came to the cor ner of Custom House street, a negro, with a basket of wine on his shoulder, came till against him, knocking our first parents on the ban quette, and into several pieces. The negro said, 44 Gor a mighty, massa, 1'se so sorry. The young Spaniard looked at the fragments of his art and industry as they lay upon the ground perhaps be bad anticipated providing himself with a dinner from the proceeds of their sale! He wept, but said nothing; yet there was poetry in his tears that touched the heart and awoke its liveliest tones of sympathy Ah unfortunate rencontre took place several days ago, between a young man named M'Kissick and Pitt Coleman, both citi zena of Hernando, De Soto county, (where the rencontre took place) in which the latter was mortally wounded, and has since died.

Upon a hearing before a magistrate. after an elaborate argument upon both sides by eminent counsel, M'Kissick was honorably discharged upon the ground of self-defence. Chauce for a 44 sfec" perhaps. The Galvestonian holds out strong inducements to a person of enterprise for the establishment of a steam cotton press in that city. The editor says 44 The want of a steam cotton press in this city is a very great disadvantage.

We have every reason to believe that nearly double the quantity of cotton would be shipped from this port if there was only a press here. In fact we have been informed that many of the Brazos cotton planters would send their cotton here for shipment, instead of to Matagorda, Velascoj and San Luis, if we had a steam press. Is it not worthy the attention of our merchants 7 We should think that a corapa ny might be formed to accomplish this most desirable object with very little trouble, and we hope to see the enterprising merchants of our city take hold of the matter and carry it through; The fathers of the city are about to build some new schoolhouses. Perhaps they may find a hint worthy their attention in the following from the New York Tattler Owners of horses and cows, pigs, poultry and sheep, begin as winter makes its first approach, to put their premises in order, to keep the dumb creatures comfortable. They fortify also their own residences against the entrance of frost, bank up the cellar windows, list the doors and glaze the windows.

The 44 boys" are supposed capable of keeping themselves warm by thinking of the good fires they may approach in the evening or perhaps they are not thought of at all, so that six hours of the dav they are kept out of sight of their parents. The getting rid of the noise of children, is, witn parents, too oiten, it not the sole motive, the chief end and aim for sending them jo school, i Was there ever seen such a phenomenon as the windows of ascboolhouse in complete order 7 Never since schoolhouses were first built. We SDeak advisedly. Once unon time we travelled out of our road a quarter of a mtie, to iook at a new scnooinouse, wiiich had never been occupied.

There are sensible people, of refined attain ments and classical proficiency, who venture ta express a belief that one maa can be turned into a stone by another, and that said stone shall be able to see through a stone wall.

We know something about the manner in which some of these professors of Mesmerism manage their buainess.but we shall very frankly confess that we don't know all. We know how some tricks at cards are managed, but we have seen others performed which we could by no means account for. we respectfully notify all true.believers in this new and interesting mystery of Animal Magnetism, that we will meet any bet that" dare be offered, that there is not a disciple of Mesmer in present practice who can produce magnetic somnolency upon our per son. We have been, through mere accident, committed warmly on this subject, and we are now determined as warmly to maistain the position, although, but for persons whose intelli gence we respect avowing a belief in it, we should be very far from wasting words upon the matter. A recent notice of the subject in the Phila delphia Spirit of the Times, is of a nature en titled to respectful attention, and we shall yield it every consideration that it deserves, at the aamo time wishing to be understood as expressing irrepressible convictions, while still actu ated by a spirit that acknowledges fallibility of discernment, and ever invites truth as a cor rector of misconception.

It seems some very distinguished ami respectable gentlemen of Philadelphia have submitted themselves aa subjects to a Professor Johnson, who, according to the 44 Spirit," succeeded in hriiiriiif shout verv astonishincr results. We shall make the matter more Incid by intredu cing a short extract from the columns of our PhiladelDhia cotemDorary Mr. Johnson waa fearful that he had notquite convinced the skeptical, and proposea to rr tiallr magnetize Joseph Neal, the edi tor 6f the Pennsvlvanian. The company ioy. fully assented; for, of course, no individual with Mr.

N. could for a moment sus pect him of a disposition to assist in the composition of a "humbug." Mr. N. took a seat, and in five minutes all the muscles of his lace were thrown into such a stale of paralysis that be was unable to open his eyes, articulate at all, or even open his mouth. 44 What are your sensations, Mr.

Neal?" interrupted the magnetizer. Mr. Neal made several violent and contortive efforts to speak, twisting his chin and agitating his lips, but not a sound escaped him. "Open your eves." II attempted it. but without success.

Can vou see 7" The lips and chin exhibited a convulsive motion, but there was nothing articulated. "Can you hear?" The same motion, but no reply. Aa his arms and hands were not magnetized, a pencil and paper were placed in his fingers. It will be remembered that Mr. Neal was only in partially magnetic state it being impossible for Mr.

Johnson to magnetize any person fully and thoroughly on the first experiment. Mr. Neal then wrote in a clear, bold hand much clearer and bolder than be usually employs the lines running domnvcard, as a man with his eyes closed would naturally write 44 1 can bear acutely-More so than common." In a minute afterwards Mr. Neal wakened up of himself, as if from a state of deep sleep, and in reply to a question of our own, remarked that this was the third time he had been thrown into such a state having been ttcice magne tized by a lady before, say a year or so ago. Mr.

Neal ia a merry fellow, and, according to the perceptions Omniscience haa granted to us, our bumble conclusion is, that Joseph C. Neal, will e'er long enrich the columns of the Pennsylvanian with another4 Charcoal in which lucidity, piercing throngh magnetic somnolency, will favor the world with rare developments. Through the clairvoyance of Jo seph C. Neal we expect to see the present agi tation of this droll subject set at rest and if he or any other individual, high or low, returns upon us with serious assurance of the truth of this new science, we just poke our arms a-kimbo, and defy Mesmerism to achieve a single expo riraent upon our proper person, either partially or in any manner otherwise. We have used some industry in satisfying our mind about this matter; and among all the speculations we have yet met, the most worthy argument offered is, that a thing must not be denied because it is not understood.

This position is plain, palpable and perfect; but can it establish its opposite that a thing must be believed, because it is not understood We have seen and participated in experiments under the bands of a professor of this business, and the result of our observations leaves us in the attitude of confirmed and confessed skepticism. When our perception shall detect anything in contradiction of this present conclusion, we shall lose no time in acknowledging such intelligence. One Benjamin Franklin, who was considered a person of some intellectual ability in his time, made one among a Parisian deputation, which once went through an enquiry into the merits of Mesmerism, end the unanimous opinion of said deputation is recorded as a verdict against its human possibility. If the statement in the Philadelphia paper is a plain and true recital of facts, we have only to conclude that Mr. Neal was either strangely hoaxed, in a manner that is yet to be detected, or, in his naturally facetious vein, he exerted his powers in affecting the influence for a momentary joke, thereby beautifully hoaxing the hoaxers.

We shall devote no more space to the matter at present, but if it continues to be brought be fore the public attention, we have another word or two to say tbat will be found interesting. Not Bad. Some years ago, in a country town, a tailor named Peck was elected to the Legislature. It had been a Democratic town for years, and Peck a Whig was elected from mere caprice. He was, in every way, about as contemptible a modification of.

humanity as could have been selected to fill inanortant office. The evening after bis election, some' of the Whigs assembled for a carousal over their victory. A grave old gentleman, often suspected of wsggisbness, with his glass of liquor in his hand, addressed his political friends We have said he, a great tri umph, a glorious and let us bear our blushing honors with all proper meekness We have been ridiculed by our opponents in various ways, ana nave heard much about 'Peck and, tailor's measures, and the ninth part or a gentlemen, we are satisfied ourselves, let us not heed the dis content of our adversaries.
