The author says, that the interest which he felt in tho and safety of General W.

was increased by family connexion, and an uninterrupted friendship and confidential intercourse for more than twenty years. No one can peruse its pages without identifying his feelings with the fate of the hero whose campaigns are recorded, and desiring to become familiar with every incident of his life. Whether regarded as one to whom our people owe a deep debt of gratitude and honor, or as a probable candidate before the American people for the highest office withiu their gift, General Wool occupies at this moment a position of great prominence, and the events of his adventurous life should be made familiar to all. We took this pamphlet into our hands with the desire to quote from its pages some of its more interesting passages; but we found the whole so compact and connected as to present little opportnaity for the selection of portions that could be detached with advantage. We have fought the battle of Buena Vista over that we ever fought in it or any other in reality, but, with the aid of such descriptions as are here given, it is easy to fight it hi imagination, and our sympathies carry us along with the current of events, painful as many of them are to contemplate.

At about ten o'clock on the morning of the 22d," says the writer, General Taylor returned from Saltillo, bringing with him Sherman's and Bragg's batteries, Lieutenant Colonel May's of dragoons, and the Mississippi regiment leaving behind one piece of Bragg's battery under Lieutenant Shover, and companies of the Mississippi regiment under Captain Bodgers, to guard his camp near Saltillo. On his arrival be was received by the troops with enthusiastic cheers, which were also extended to General Wool, who took occasion to pass along the front of all the regiments and corps, and to remind them that the day was the birthday of Washington, the father of our and to say that he trusted no A merican soldier would disgrace The soldiers felt the force of the appeal, and responded to it with three enthusiastic cheers. The associations of memory, like the electric fire in the wires of the telegraph, ran in an instant from the wild defile in the Mexican mountains to the quiet and beautiful lawns of Mount Vernon. The name of Washington, which cheers in every country the heart of Americans, ran along the lines. The influence of heroic names is always felt.

With Americans the name of Washington is a spell which operas the way to victory and glory; and that name nerved the hearts of our soldiers shut up as they were among the mountains in the enemy's country, and encompassed by the direst perils of war. Tho name of Washington, in thundering tones, rang through the valley, and was echoed from the mountains." We have recently perused a newspaper printed in Philadelphia during the administration of John Adams, in which we read an account of a visit made by that gentleman to his home in 1 Massachusetts without pomp, parade or display. I There were no public and at Boston, when it troop was in readiness to escort the quietness and prhacy of his arrival prevented their knowing any thing about it until he had left the city. The editor speaks of this as a happy exemplification of the workings of republicanism, and contrasts it with the vain pageants and fulsome laudations attending the journeys of tnonarchs through their realms. We are relapsing.

A President, cabinet officer, prominent Senator, or great military commander, cannot lose sight of the smoke from his own himney without being persecuted with honors and kindness, in a form in which he cannot repel them, and he is not among the vainest of such manner as he would rejoioe to see omitted. We think that the comfort and satisfaction of the lionixed wonld be promoted by doing away with these things as far as possible; that the true feelings of respect for the great and worthy men of the nation would not be impaired thereby and that man-worship, whether of or statesmen, could be dispensed with without detriment to the cause of true republicanism; or, at least, that whenever our public men desire to travel in a private manner they may permitted to do so, and that demonstrations reserved for the occasions upon which they art invited with reference to that object. A Msak learn from the Philadelphia Ledger, that a large crowd of persons assembled there on Monday afternoon to witnesi the ascension of Mr. Pusey, in his balloon, the event did not take place, on the account'o! the unexpected arrest of the seronaut for pass ing a foreign bank note, in violation of the re eent act of Assembly. The note in question with other money, was borrowed from a by Mr.

to pay a claim against him, abou ten day since, and no efTort was made to appre hend him until within half an hour of the tim fixed for the ascension. He was taken befon an alderman and held to bail in $500 to answer During his absence a person attempted to go uj in the balloon, hut failed; and when he re turned, after much tronble to procure bail, th? gas had escaped to such a degree as to rendei the trial was made) to raise any distance from the ground an abortive one. The name of the person causing the arrest should yet be published. A man of such mean or dislikes should have a mark set on "nin whereby the world may know him. The First California gold in the placers is tempting, and men seldom find tune to look for the gold that ia within them; jet one inventor has already appeared, and his application for a patent ia soon to be presented at the Patent Office.

We have seen his model, all of pure solid gold! It is of a double-acting force pump. The inventor is a native of this city, but now a resident of The gold of which his model is composed was by himself, and he has exhibited much skilful handiwork, us well as ingenuity, in its construction. Of all the models in the Patent than 15,000 in number present we believe is the only one of this material. The Army Intelligencer of this morning remarks upon the Court m.w Bitting for the trial of Gen. Talcott, on ceriain charges preferred against him: "This Court is, we presume, the most imposing, looking to the character and the rank in the army of those who compose it, that has ever been assembled in this Government since the war of the Revolution.

The principal business in the Court yesterday was a further examination ol Captain Maynadier, and an examination chief of Colonel Huger, a material witness in the case, whose testimony was not concluded at the hour of adjournment. GtL Llarke, the additional member of the Court was in attendance yesterday; but, not been present on the first day of hearing testimony, will probably be relieved from service on th? Court." Naval. The U. S. steam frigate Saranac arrived at Pensacola on the 9th instant, from Havana.

Commander J. G. Pendergrast has assumed the command of the Saranac. The Mobile Register of the 10th instant says: Since the arrival of the Saranac from Havana, a serious illness has broken out on board, and there are now upwards of 80 officers and'men on the sick list. No deaths yet.

The U. S. surveying steamer Hetzell, from ey West and the coast of Florida, arrived at Sew York on Tuesday. Mr. George Taylor, a venerable citizen of Washington, and formerly of Alexandria, died in this city on the the 24th instant, aged ninetyone years.

Among the children he has left, the Intelligencer remarks, are three gallant sons, who have seen service in the ranks of the defenders of their elder, a Colonel in the Army the second an officer of the Navy; and the third a Lieutenant in the Marine corps. A Convention at National i Convention of Reformers and Workingmen (the National Industrial Congress) is to be held at Washington city, on the first Wednesday of June, 1852. i An Old Hero Nashua Telegraph lays that Major Benjamin Abbott, formerly of Vndover, was found dead in bed, at he house of Jeremiah P.

He is the same fellow who three years ago was tried and convicted for shooting Mr. Jewett (not fatally) of the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, and was sentenced to the State Prison, but pardoned. Bridging the Cincinnati Commercial says that there is to be another movement shortly to carry into effect the project of building a bridge across the Ohio river from Cincinnati to Covington.

Peach most delicious specimens of this fruit have been presented to us from the private gardens of Mr. Grafton Powell, corner of 14th street and Ohio avenue. They are of most exquisite taste and flavor, of an almost transparent red and yellow tinge, and of good size.

We could wish to see this fruit more extensively cultivated. The cultivation of choice fruits always affords a good recompense. Miss Bremer, the distinguished Swedish authoress, is now in Charlottesville, on a visit to Professor 8chele, of the University of Virginia.

Rotal Fooleries.

Abbott Lawrence can hardly begin at this time of life to make a fool of himself! et we find the following important news in recently received papers At the late dates from London the contemplated fancy ball to be given by Queen Victoria was a leading topic among the fashionables. In addition to the state saloons and ball-rooms, the throne room and the magnificent picture gallery were to be thrown open for the accommodation of the guests. The following are the Americans who have been invited Hon. Abbott Lawrence, United States Minister; Hon. Mr.

Van Alen, late United States Charge d'Affaires to Ecuador; Mr. Bancroft Davis, Secretary to the Legation; Col. T. B. Lawrence, to the Legation.

The Robbery at Marshall's Auction boy Brest was examined yesterday evening by Justice Donn, and fully committed. Among the noteB taken by him was a counterfeit $5 bill on the Banbury Bank Connecticut. The names of the cashier and president were rubbed out, and it had been torn nearly in two. This note has been passed in tins city or in Baltimore. Mr.

Marshall will give the amount it purports to represent for its return to him. From present appearances we judge there will be no general celebration on the Fourth. The corner-stone at the Capitol and the presentation at the Monument will be the two grand incidents. A horse became frightened near the Centre Market this morning, and started off with his dreadfully did he frighten the multitude around him. In his progress, after breaking loose from the vehicle, he ran over a boy, but fortunately did not injure him much.

The deformed man, with paws and claws, and all that, after being advertised at the Odeon, has turned out for gratuitous exhibition, or voluntary payments. He was near the side-walk of the avenue, between Seventh and Eighth streets, this morning, and crowds gathered round to look at him, poor fellow! The Georgetown Dramatic Association are to perform a full and fashionable house, of course. Death of Gen. Intelligence has been received of the death of Brigadier General Matthew Arbuckle, of the United States Army, at Fort Smith, Arkansas, on the 11th instant. Oen.

A. was one of the oldest and most meritonous officers of our army. He was born in Botetourt county, Virginia, about the year and was nearly eighty years of age at the tune of his death. He was the son of the galant officer of the same name, who, before the Revolution, defeated Logan, near the mouth of ie Kanawha. He entered the army before the leginnmg of the present century, and served the war with Great Britain, and in the Semiiole campaign under Jackson and Gaines, with rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

In March, 1820 he was made Colonel of the 7th regiment infantry, which was his rank in the line at he time of his death. In 1830 he received the of Brigadier General. Although General Arbuckle has not had the ortune to acquire much fame in the field, his ervices to his country are not to be underrated or more than thirtyyears he has had tl.ecomland of the department of which Fort Gibson is he headquarters, in which capacity he has had 0 perform duties of the most difficult and deliate character. The numerous powerful tribes if Indians established in that country by the government have been kept in the most management, and they have earned to respect the Government whose au-honty has been represented by one combining 10 many of the qualities of the good soldier and Lhe honorable, high-minded gentleman. It will be difficult to find a successor so well qualified all respects, for the position he has filled.

Eve. Bulletin. New Motive H. Stuart, of New 1 ork, in a note to the Tribune, Bpeaks of this invention, and thinks it likely to supersede steam us a motive power. He says: After a lengthened series of experiments, during a period of more than eight years, originating in made on seeing a common spinning top in motion, the inventors have succeed in arranging an engine so na to secure the full effective aci on of atmospheric pressure to any extent as a motor, without exhaustion in connexion with centrifugal force." I have," (says Mr.

in connexion with some of our most scientific mathematicians mechanics through the politeness of the inventors, had the privilege of examining their and calculations, and have no hesitation in saying that a complete demonstration attends every step of their progress in this very simple and most pcrfect invention. Instead of trying to cheat leverage and gravitation, they combine gravity or pressure and centrifugal force, in the same manner as they act ia nature to producc rotation in matter; recognizing both as independent and available principles on forces acting at right angles wilh each other, in the ratio of the Bquare of their velocity; the centrifugal force being evolved from rotation without taxing producc motion, but to perpetuate a vacuum, which is but the measure of power, gravity, or pressure, being the propelling power acting on quicksilver or any other power of the vacuum being equal to the pressure created whatsoever that may be." We have, we confess, more confidence in the success of the experiments of Professor I age, to substitute electro-magnetism for steam, than in the new invention examined by Mr! Stuart. But this is an age of invention and discovery, and human ingenuity may yet be able so to combine and arrange the elements as to imitate the motive power by which the planetary system is governed, and thus produce perpetual motion. Although without pretensions to scientific knowledge, we feel an interest in all discoveries which give'promise of benefit to mankind, and should be glad to see Professor Pennington sailing over our heads with his aerial ship, filled with freight and Clipper.
