SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 1. List of Unclaimed Letters. The lUt of letter remaining in the Pott Office uncalled for icill be publitked in the Picayune to morrow morntnfr. X3F The Northern mail due this morning has failed from beyond Atlanta, Ga. Cy We are indebted to the clerk of the mail boat California for Mobile papers of yesterday.

Thb Begatta at Point Clear. We trust our readers will not forget the regatta at Point Clear, Mobile Bay, on the 4th and 5th Lasts. Every prepr ation been made for the accommodation of visitors, and the prospect of sport cannot be snrpassed. To Coast Passengers. Mr.

Geddes, tbe agent, 10 Bank Place, gives notice in another column that until the steamboat Creole resumes her place, tbe California will stop at Bay St Louis, Pass Christian and Biloxi, and the Oregon will stop at the Bay, the Pass and Mississippi City. For Galveston and Matagorda Bat. The steamship Mexico, Capt J. Y. Lawless, will leave as above at 8 o'clock to moirow morning.

Agents, Harris 6c Morgan, foot of Julia street. For Grand Lake. Passengers and shippers will not forget that the favorite steamboat Southern Belle leaves for Grand Lake, Vicksburg eid other intermed'ate po'nta, at 5 o'clock this evening. Capt Broadwell will leave nothing of the interests or comfort of his patrons unattended to. Agents, Cairoll, Pritcbard cV.

o3 Carondelet street, and Lewis Snapp, 37 Front street For Madisonville. The steamer United States, Capt. Ardill, will leave on her usual weekly tiip on the arrival of the 7 o'clock Jefferson cars to morrow morning. The fare is only '25 cents, and a fine fish breakfast may be had on boa for 50 cents. Visitors to Point Clear.

As some doubts have been expressed a. to the accommodations for the crowd of visitors to Point Clear, on the occasion of the great regatta on Tuesday and Wednesday next, to be had at the hotel, we are glad to be enabled to state that the proprietors have made such arrangements as wi'1 obviate all fears on that head. A first clrss steamer been chartered, which h. ample state room accommodations for one hundred persons, and is in perfect order. This boat will be moored at the wharf at Point Clear, which is but a step Lom the hotel, and those who caDnot find room in the hotel will be received and comfortably lodged on board.

The boat will also accompany the contesting vessels, so that a'l her passengers may get a view of tbe race. Messrs. Chamberlain 6c deserve great credit for their enterprise, and will doubtless reap a rich reward. BP Serious fears are entertained at Charleston for the safety of the brig Ilibernia, Capt Robert Thayer. She left Providence, R.

In the utter absence of any thing in the shape of interesting intelligence from the Crimea (no one watches that direction for news any longer) let me give you a few items from Australia which I am confident will be found readable. You may deem this a round about way of receiving news from that far off nook or corner of the earth, and so it is but that fact does not take away from the interest of what I have to offer, and which I find recorded in a private letter dated at Melbourne on the 20th of last May. I have said that no one looks in the direction of the Crimea for news any longer: it is as good aa given up that Sevastopol cannot be taken for months many think not under another year and therefore tbe account of a sortie with a thousand or two killed, or of one assault in which twice that number have been sent under" on either side, attract little attention. People are waiting for the final blow to be struck, and as they seem to think some t'me must elapse before it be delivered. they care nothing for the nrnor events which must intervene, r' though those events may be but a succession of sanguinary conflicts.

In a word, the public here have got so used to accounts of bloody attacks upon outer works, that nothing but the of a finrl assault upon the herrt of Sevastopol itself will satisfy them. Let us now go to Australia. I was breakfasting in comprny with a friend this morning on the Boulevards, an English gentleman well known in A merica, when he received a long rnd most interesting latter from Melbov De, dated, as I have said above, on the 20th of May. This letter wrs w.itten by an Englishman who haa a'o traveled much in the States, and who is decidedly an adm'rer of our pple and institutions. Alter giving a graphic account of the Ballarat riots as they were teimed, which the sympathies of the writer were Monti on the side of the diggers," he goes on to speak of the feeling of the citizens of Melbourne at the period of the conflicts, and dn'og the time when t'ie principal rioters were on the'r trial.

He does not mince matters at as you will see on reading the following "During all thi futa at Ballarat there were large meetinga held here in Melbouue, and under the very eyes of the auttoiUies out apoken tree sun was nothing at these evei one, almost without exception, w'hod well to the cauae of tbe 'diggers' the ouly objection Melbourne men had wn to the way in wbicb they aougbt to gain their ends, Jorernment wm abrcd fiercely tbe cause of all the disturbance, both publicly at the open air meetlnira and ptirately in every house in the colony. True, a number of persona were sworn in as but it wn only to guard against the predato; incurslona of tbe Vandiemor'an gentry, or conTic1, who m'ght be expected to and an ounce or ao in cr of any d' iturbance. Tbe Government wr or abused by all the Governor br i not a find to speak well of him in abort, the general feel 'o i that we want a thoroughly dirt Brent slate of tb' iga here. Th's countiy not to be ruled by a clique of noble lords sixteen thousand mrs away, and what la more mark me if the notr'nee sy stein la not done away with, and Australia left to goveiu itself, in leas than fire yeara the aouthern croaa will be aeen flying over ua, and not the Kely upon th'i." This is tolerably strong and emphatio language, especia'ly when it comes from an Englishman of known high character, standing, and detei oiination one not at a1! timid about sperking bis mind, or of meeting the consequence3, afler stating that the piincips1 ringleaders of the Ballarat riot although the evidence was positive against them, could hot be convicted for want of a jury; the obnoxious license fee, which was the cause of the row, had been repealed and that the pepple were for a time appeased, the writer goes on to say "But if you in England believe that men here adore Brit'h const tulioos and Sags and Downing street legislation, because they are aarisfiod for a time with the concession of the Government, you are moat egregiously mistaken. People here swear by America much more than by England, and American institutions are compared with the British in a manner that would be most mortifying to a truly patriotic Engliihman.

Yon, who have been ao much in Ameiica, will not be aurprived when I aay that the Americana are by far the beat men in tbta country. You know well their enterprise, but even you will be riton'bed at the following piece of statisUatical information At Ballarat, according to the ceoeus coramiaalon, the population ia 22,000, of whom only 240 are Americana. In order to drain the water from the deep sinkings, and also to waih the slutf, there are seven steam engines and machines of these four beloneed and were worked aolely by Americana. All the great contracts are taken by them the lines ol atages to and from tbe 'diggiocs' that are accessible to wheels, and few are not, are all Yankee; the coaches either Troy or Albany built the harness and all from the same country. In coming into the bay you will notice that all the tine ships are American, the best hotels are theirs in fact, they are improving our people out of the place alto gether." This complimentary Praise from Sir Hubeit Stanley is praise indeed." I say this because I happen to know the w.i ter of the above to be a gentleman who candidly speeVs his mind, and who is withal a tiae Englishman, and not given to idle talk.

I had no idea that the enterprise and go aheadity of the universal Yankee nation were working such wonders in AustrsUa, and that the facta should come to us endorsed in such a satisfactory manner aa the above for it ia certainly gratifying to hear such commendations passed upon us by one of British birth and British education, and by one, too, who haa traveled much, and who ia a close observer and a discriminating judge. If we go to the farthest limits of eU creation we shall find some specimen of a Yankee constructing a raft, bent upon prospecting" still further in search of an opening the letter from Australia aa good as proves this. The particulars of a rich and amusing scene a scene which the Parisian penny a liners term decidedly British came off a few evenings since in the vicinity of the Palais Royal. The heroine of the story, for heroine sbe may be termed, was a tall English woman, who waa sauntering along one of the passagea, attracting the attention of all by the extravagant amplitude of her hoop petticoats, the gaudy and varied colors of her dress, and the independent, devil me eare style of her walk: in London ehe would have been set down as a perfect stunner," and even there vould have drawn all eyes. As ehe entered the GaJlerie d'Orleans, the principal promenade of the Palais RoyaL she put on more airs than ever with one hand she raised the voluminous folds of her dress, while with the other she displayed a flashy parasol, a gorgeously embroidered handkerchief, and rich porte monnaie.

The latter, which had a plethoric or well stocked with gold appearance, attracted in particular the attention of a young man, described as elegantly attired for soma minutes he could not keep his eyes off the apparent treasure he finally got ao excited he could not keep his hands off, for grabbing It be started and ran at a Lexington lick.

Certainly I did," responded the fellow, with the coolest sang froid and impudence imaginable. Then let him elide," said she, or words to that effect, addressing the gentleman who still held the thief if it waa done on a bet I have nothing more to say." And it is asserted that he would have got off at once had it not been for the incredulity of some policemen who had been attracted to the spot and who would insist on walking off with the innocent youth to tbe nearest station There be endeavored to brave it out before the magistrate that it was all a bet: be had laid a wager with a friend that he would grab the poi monnce from the hands of the lady, one turn of the gallery, and then give it back to her with an apology.

Gen. Pelusier, the French commanding oflicer before Sevastopol, who has long been termed a sabreur, has a slashing way of his own in te'king by telegraph. In one of his recent despatches he says: "The Russians made a sortie last night, and were repulsed of course!" Th's is short and pointed. A correspondent of one of the London journals does not think much of the services of the allies of the French and English in the Crimea; he says that "the Sardinians are doing not trig, and the Turks are helping them." This probably near the truth. Theyocng King of Portugal, after a lengthy tour through England, France, Italy and tbe Gem an States, has finally Bailed from Os teiid for Lisbon.

Wh'le in Brussels it is stated that he had a long interview with the agent of the Rothschilds in that city. Probably he wanted to borrow. Over 80,000 persons visited the great Exb bition to day.

No one can be found who has seem him since that hour, although a negro man states that he heard him moving about in his room after 1 o'clock in the morning. His room is in the third story, front: but contains no evidence of violence. There are two or three spots of blood about the bed, but they are only such as might result from bleeding at the nose or from a cut finger. There is also a broken knife lying on the hearth, but it appears to have been broken designedly with a dumb bell the latter as well aa the bricks giving evidence of a collision.

This is certainly a very mysterious event, and fears are entertained that he has been foully murdered. His partner informs us that he has as yet been unable to obtain any clue as to his whereabouts. It would be impossible for him to leave the city without some one snowing it ana equally impossible for any one to dispatch him in his room and drag the body down the spiral stairway without leaving certain marks.

A. D. Croasman Dear Sir In compliance with your request, I have great pleasure In announcing the successful result of our last casting, which completes the entire figure of Gen. Jackaon. There now only remains two portions of the horse the moulds of which are already made to finish the statue.

It i gratifying to me to be able to impart this agreeable intelligence. Should no accident occur, I shall have it noon its pedestal, ready for Inag oration, on the 8ta of January, 1856. Very truly yours, Clasjc Mux. There is very little news here of interest. Everything appears to jog along quietly, not even a murder occurring to break the pending dullness.

Can't you send us up some exonerating news anything that we can speculate upon. In the absence of home news I send you an extract from one of my letters per Pacific: LrvxBPOOL, As. 11, 1855.

Laura Keene, I hear, ia to be connected with the Varieties, or Gaiety," as you have christened it Ahtelopi. Loulsinra. We learn from the Baton Rouge papers that John S. Barrow, died of yellow fever on Tuesday last at his plantation, "West Oaks," on Bayou Marangouin. The Gazette says The deceased was the only son of Gen.

Washington Barrow, of Nrshville, and at the time of his death was, we believe, in the 29ih year of his age. He came to Louisiana in 1850, as near es we can recollect, and in 1851 commenced the practice of law in Baton Bouge. His gentlemanly deportment and mgn social quvit.es soon gatnered around him a host of warm and ardent admirers. In 1853, having purchased a plantation on Bayou Marangouin, he exchanged his professional pursuits for the retirement of the planter's life. Few men of his age had enjoyed more splendid opportunities or could point to, more brilliant prospects.

Possessed of natural endowments of the highest order, both of mind and person, a liberal education and an abundance of this world's goods, the future to him was full of promise. But alas! tbe fell destroyer came in a moment when he was least expected, and robbed society of one of its brightest ornaments. The Baton Rouge Advocate, of Wednesday evening, says the health of that city is improving. The Franklin Planters Banner, of Thursday last, says it haa not heard of any cases of yellow fever in the paiiah of St Mary. The Rev.

Ransom M. Sawyer died on Saturday last, at New Iberia, of bilious fever. He was forty years of age. The Homer (Claiborne parish) Advocate, of the 22d ult, says that both the coia and cotton crops in that parish will be short nothing like an average crop of either can now be expected. The same paper says We regret to learn that on Sunday, the 4th the dwelling, kitchen and smoke house of Mr.

Robert Muu ay, of this parish, was burned to the ground while Mr. Murray waa at, church. Everything contained in the buildings waa destroyed, consisting of $1,662 75 in cash, about $500 worth of books, all his house furniture, clothing, provisions, See. It is thought that some mean white man, knowing the money to be there, made himself possessor of the money, and then set fire to the houses to prevent detection.

It ia fuller than the one we received by telegraph direct: The steamer George Law haa arrived from Aspinwall, with California dates to the 1st Inst, and nearly $1,300,000 in specie.

8he connected with the steamer Golden Age, which brought down $1,600,000 in gold. The principal consignees on her specie list are as follows Wells, Farge $200,000 William Hoge, Metropolitan Bank, $200,000 fDrexell Thomas Wattson, $26,000. The electric telegraph across the Istlimna has been finished, and is in operation. QThe latest accounts from Petropaulovski say that when the Allied fleet arrived there they found the town deierted and the fortifications dismantled. The Ruseran ships Aurora and Dwina had sailed sometime previously, up the Amoor river, taking with them all the guns, stores, fee The Allied fleet had sailed for Sitka, from which port they would proceed to San Francisco, to irent.

The British ships of war Monarch and President, and the French frigates Eurydiee and LaForte, from the Pretropaulovaki expedition, had arrived at San Francisco. The visit of the fleet to Sitka was a peaceful one, aa there ia a compact existing between end the British Government exempting the place from molestation, it being the depot of the Russian, American and Hudson Bay Fur Companies.

He resides ia Mew Haven, Cr. In one of the letters an account is siren of the origin of the portrait. Mr. Sherman states that, soon after the sirungof the Declaration, Mr. Bishop Atling, of Mew Haven, employed Earle, the artist, to paint portraits of aUl who affixed their names to that document.

design was not entirely carried out; but Sherman a portrait waa among the number taken. Many years afterwards, the portrait found its way to New Haven, and waa deli rt red to President Soles, who subsequently sent lo tha widow of thai statesman.

The writer the letter states that Sarah, the wife of Samuel Hoar, of Concord, a younger iatar, and himself, are the only surviving children of the signer of the Declaration. In the course of the same letter, the writer speaks of tha different times when he saw Washington.
