A week or two since, however, he missed from his oMce a small mahogany box, which contained over 100, an soon after met the boy with It in front of Bsmum's Hotel. The case of the girl is one showing her to have strayed f.om the path of morarectitude at an early age, and utterly beyond parental control.

Her own brother, however, caused her arrest, and notwithstanding her violent entreaties she was promptly sent out. Her case was a veryTaardeuel one. The Harbor.

The Justices of the Poee. Afew days since the justices of the peace of the city of Baltimore called a meeting in the Temperance Temple, the object of which was to memorialize the Legislature to pass a law to remunerate the magistrates of the city for criminal business done by them, and to grant them power to dispose finally of cases of assault and battery, without sendiag them to the Criminal Court.

It was stated that all the cases disposed of by that court first passed through the hands of the magistrates, who received no compensation, while the city was taxed 20,000 to pay the expenses of the Criminal Court. Another object was to ask the Legislature to pas a law requiring a return to the treasury of the State of the bails forfeited in the Criminal Court. A case was mentioned in which a party charged with setting fire to a house was arrested at a cost of $390 to the city, was admitted to bail in the sum of $1,090, which bail was forfeited to the State, and compromised on the payment of costs by the bailor. The magistrates say that they are obliged to give bond for the faithful performance of their duties, and they work for nothing for the State, being dependent entirely upon the proceeds of the civil business which comes before them. The memorial to the Legislature is being prepared, and will be shrned and forwarded to Annapolis in a few days.

i Fearful umors. Underthis head we yesterday morning noticed apprehended disasters occurring i on the river. So far as the passage of parties from the Alarine Hospital was concerned we have rea- I son to believe thatno accidents happened. During the evening, however, a gentleman who was stop- i ping at Earnum's City Hotel hired a pair of horses and a sleigh from Mr. John Hinsley.

With some ladies accompanying him he drove to Fort Ale- Henry, and all in the sleigh got out. leaving the horses in charge of an attendant. The attendant did not pay proper attention to them, and, as we learn, they ran off" and jumped over the wall en- closing the fort grounds, and landed on the ice on I the Spring Garden side; the sleigh was overturned and became detached and remained on the ice, while the horses ran ahead, and passing on the track made by the steamers entering our harbar, broke through and were both drowned. Attempt to Rob. On Alonday evening, upon the arrival of the Philadelphia train of cars at the President street depot, a lady who -had taken pas- sage from Philadelphia called a hackman to her, i Air.

John Dunn, and engaged his services. Whilst in the act of a ttending to her baggage he saw a boy about seventeen years of age attempt to rob her having succeeded in getting her port monnoie, containing a considerable amount of money, into his hand. Dunn rushed towards him, and after a short struggle succeeded in taking the article from him, and seized him by the comfort which was around his neck. The young vHlain, however, suddenly slipped it from his neck, whereupon a i man standing" neir, doubtless his accomplice, told i him to go off, which he did very quickly and made his escape, the hackman not even receiving thanks for his prompt interference. Alleged Robbery.

During an early hour on Tuesday niSht, watchman Meeds, of the eastern district, accidentally looked through the window of a public house, and saw a man engaged in removing the contents of a handsome carpet bag. consisting of a variety of costly clothing of a lady; also a large package of papers and letters, many of which are: addressed to Ann M. Campbell, Cham- bersburg, Pa. There was also in the bag. a book containing an account with the Union Bank.

The watchman took the man to the watch house, and delivered the baggage to the captain. The accused gave in the name of George Coverstine, and says that he traveled from the above place to this city in a stage coach, in company with other passengers, and that he toes the Dig in mistase.

I hope others will do likewise. Y'ours, truly, i Baltimore, Jan. 23, 1S56. X.

The Weather. The Ice and snow which now i cover the ground to thedepth of several inches still continue, and are as hard as ever. The rays of i the sun at noon- day may occasion a general thaw- the cold nights quickly freeze it again. Y'esterday the mercury remained below the freezing point, 26 being the average, with a wind from the northwest. Sleighing still continues quite popular, and will doubtless last several days to come.

Attempt to Swindle. On Tuesday last a fellow proceeded to the residence of Mr. Solomon Sutton, during his absence, and told his wife thit her brother-in-law had sent him for the gun of her husband, but she was a little too cute for him and would not let the fellow have it until her husband returned. Of course he promised to call again when her better half was at home. Air.

Sutton's brother did not send him, nor did either of them recognize the person described. The Partridges. A correspondent has taxed with another appeal to the farmers in reference to the poor birds. The snows are heavy, and covering the ground deprives them of every effort to obtain food. Yesterday, in Centre market, we saw partridges sold at $1 per dozen, which were so poor as scarcely to be worth the lard they were cooked with.

ill not th'ise who live in the country do something to preserve the breeds? They ought to keep an eye to this matter. Alleged False Pretence. Alichael Connolly was yesterday arrested by officer Plownnn, charged with obtaining of Stein Brother, under false pretences, $12 worth of clothing. It was in evidence that the accused went to the store of complain mts, received the goods with the intention of having them made up into coats, and that he afterwards sold them to another party, Justice Lawder committed him to jail In default of security to answer at a further examination. Committed for Court.

Gerge Cole, a youth. 16 years of age, was yesterday arrested by officer Stevens upon the charge of stealing a vest from the tailoring establishment of Mr. John H. C. Dahle.

Officers Pamphilion and Dawes yesterday arrested James Brown upon the charge of breaking into the house of Airs. Hannah Smith, on Barre street, near Pratt, and stealing therefrom about $9 in cash.

Justice Webb committed him to answer at court. Centu Market. A walk through Centre Market yesterday morning disclosed the fact that the market was a poor one, and that there was but a slight change in prices in anything presented for sale. There was nothing to require a regular statement of prices. Without a License J.

C.E. Aloore, William Kettlewell ai A. Birnister were yesterday arrested bv officers Watklns and Green upon the charge of auctioneering without a license, and Justice Root held them upon security for a farther hearing. nolating an Act of Assembly. William La-cumbra was yesterday arrested by officer Connolly, charged with peddling hops in this city, he being a non resldenter, and, therefore, violating an act of Assembly.

Justice Denny released him on security to answer at court. THE SUN. The Greerssborough Bank. We have already stated that some action had been taken by the Legislature respecting the affairs of the Greensborbuga bank. The following comprise a very pretty exhibit of tlse affair.

The first decument consists of a petition, signed by the President and Directors of the Bank, and a number of the principle citizens of Caroline county. The other article is a report of a meeting, as Its title signifies, and embodies a statement of transactions connected with the "rise and progress' of the bank, singularly instructive and entertaining. The whole matter is now before the Legislature, and in due season we shall have the upshot of it: To the Honorable the General Assembly of Maryland: The undersigned, citizens of Caroline represent that at the January session of the Legislature of Maryland, 1351, an act was passed incorporating the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank of Greensborough In Caroline countv, and pursuant to the power and authority given by said act of incorporation the commissioners therein named, after due notice, opened the books to obtain subscriptions to the capital stock of said bank. On the day appointed a certain Samuel Waggoner (not residing in this State) solicited the entire capital stock of said institution, and afterwards duly elected a set of directors for said bank, by whom the President and other officers were appointed, and under whose superintendence the said bank commenced doing business. Your petitioners further represent that very soon after said bank began to do business nearly the whole of the specie capital of said institution was drawn out without the knowledge or consent of the directors, as per report of the directors, by the Cashier and the said Samuel Waggoner, and has not since been paid or returned to the said bank.

Your petitioners further state that there is now in said bank but a few hundred dollars In specie to pay all her outstanding debts and liabilities and to redeem the notes in circulation. Your petitioners further represent that great fraud has been practised on the public by the" parties owning said bank in the issuing and circulating notes not signed by the President of said bank, and for the redemption of which there is no fund provided, and that the said institution is wholly unsafe and unsound, and such will be found to be the condition upon a full and careful investigation. The undersigned believe that the security and interest of the community imperatively demand that an investigation of the condition of the said banking institution should be made by the legislature at Its present session. Therefore, the undersigned pray your honorable body to appoint a select committee forthwith, with power and authority to institute and make a full and eareful investigation of the alfairs and condition of said bank, and that such action in reference to the longer continuance of the banking privileges of the same may be taken as will insure the community against injury and loss by said institution, and as in duty bound will ever pray, Signed, Henet Rottsset, President.

L. Moore. Referred to a special committee, Messrs. Clark, (who presented it) Toad wine, Whitby, Dail and Timmons. At a meeting of the President and Directors of the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank of Greensborough.

held on the Sth of September. 1955. the Cashier w-as called on to present a balance sheet, which was laid before the board as the fol lowing statement will show The aggregate amount stated being S123.S93 14; of this amount there was stated to be S3. 702 11 in gold and silver; notes on the Easton Bank of Ma-rland, 8195; notes on the Memphis Bank of Tennessee, (which stopped payment last July, and wis asserted by the cashier to be good money,) for 815,000: a draft from S. Waggoner Ca.

to a certain party in New York for the amount of 8 another from the same parties for also, a certificate of deposit from Clark of New Y'ork, endorsed by Samuel Waggoner, for three thousand two hundred and seven dollars and fifty cents; deposits at Messrs. Harris Sc Sons, In Baltimore, $3,643 89; Easton Bank.S130; Messrs Drex-el in Philadelphia, 344 40; circulation, S50.0C0. At said meeting a committee of three directors were appointed to proceed to the city of New Y'ork to present those drafts for collection, and exchange the notes of the Mechanics' Bank of Memphis, for the best available means. The report of the committee, on their return.was that the drafts at.d certificate of deposit had been presented for collection, but payment refused.with the exception of the draft for 10. 000, which amount was paid in notes on the Farmers and Merchants' Bank of Greensborough, Aid.

The notes on the Alechanics' Bank of Memphis, were returned, stating that the brokers of New York would not buy the notes on any terms, as they were worthless. The president and directors met at their banking house on the 18th of September to ascertain the amount of issue of said bank, of which they found 37,1 W) signed by the president and cashier of the bank, and at the request of the president the coin was counted, which proved to be only $3,903 '29. The engraveis had delivered to Samuel WTaggoner by the order of P. D. Burgher, cashier, two hundred thousand dollars of imDressions, or eight thousand sheets of the nil plate, say 5, 5, 5, $10, and subsequently S.

Waggoner has exchanged S70.000 of $5 impressions with the engraver for the amount in $10 impressions, so that. he had of S5 and $150,000 in S10. This exchange was also done without the knowledge of the directors. From that amount the president had signed $65,000 that is $50,000 of fives and $15,000 of tens Of this there was in bank $37,190, leaving a balance of $27,810 in circulation. The balance of the Impressions, being $135,000, consisting of $10 impressions, have all been signed by the cashier, P.

Burgher, and J. H. Bradley as vice-president, all dated February 15, 1955, without the knowledge or sanction of the directors, except 840,000, which was signed by both parties, but not numbered or dated. All these $95,000 were put in circulation in the W7est, and principally in the State of Ohio, by the Seneca County Bank, and Bartlett Smith, of Columbus, Ohio. 1 1 is clear that the bank issued more paper at that time than they had any right to do, as they only had paid in $40,000 at the dating of those notes, independent of what the president signed himself.

There also hos been notes in circulation of this bank-plate. signed by R. Torrence as president, and a man under the name of Jordan as caf-hier. Since the return of the committee from Neisr Y'ork, the president has been authorized by the major part cf the Caroline directors to forward those drafts and certificate of deposit which hid been returned to the bank by the committee to the Butchers' and Drovers' Bank of New York for collection, which being done, payment was demanded and refused, were returned to the bank protested. The president, authorised by the major part of the Caroline directors, had Samuel Waggoner's stock attached to the amount of 2,500 shares.

In addition to the above debt of Samuel Waggoner he has had the amount of $13,313 56 out of the bank, which has been charged to him by the cashier on the balance sheet, and as he is a director of this institution as well as stockholder, he is amenable to the laws of the State of Maryland, as well as P. D. Burgher, as cashier and director, for suffering it to be done without giving information to the board of directors. The protested draft and certificate of deposit of S. Waggoner and Waggoner Co.

were dated the 4th Alay, 1355, a id no mention is made in the cashier's report to the directors until the Sth September, 1555. H. Roussel, President. J. AIcGomgal.

A AIakylander in the Crimea. The I'hila. delphia Pennsylvanian has a letter from Dr. E. II.

Eld ridge, to his friends in Maryland, dated Sim-pberopol, November 22d, in which he says "Although I expect to leave for home in a few days, still, as I may stop at the various places of interest, this may reach you some time in advance of me. I have the last few weeks with a family I have mentioned to you by the name of root on, where I have entirely regained my health. Never have I met with such kindness and hospitality from strangers, and rarely from friends Drs Holt and Read are also here at present, and we ate enjoying ourselves very much, Air. and Grooton dolnj everything In their power to make the visit one of the pleasantest kind." Speaking of the recent visit of the Emperor to the Crimea, he says "I never saw more affection evinced between father and son than between the Emperor and his subjects. Everybody seems to love him.

and no doubt he deserves their love; for his whole study appears to be the welfare and happiness of his people; and nothing is left undone by him to ameliorate the sufferings consequent on the various engagements. No solder is forgotten by him money, being liberally distributed among those who are so wounded as to be Incapable of supporting themselves; besides which they receive the ordinary pension." Heavy Trains. The transportation trains on the Camden and Amboy Railroad are said to be unusually heavy this winter. A train leaves Camden almost every hour of the day, with some twenty and thirty cars in each. Further from Honduras The Invasion by Americans The Gold Discoveries.

It was stated under our telegraphic head yesterday that an arrival at Boston had brought a report that Gen. Cabanas was about to Invade Honduras with 400 Americans and 1,000 native troops, in order to wrest the country from Guardiola, the present ruler. The latter, it appears, in October last, defeated Cabanos, (who was- then the legal President,) and compelled him to take to flight. Subsequently he joined Walker's party in ica-ragua, and now goes back to seek revenge. The Boston Traveller has the following additional particulars from Capt.

Nickerson, of the brig Helen Jane, from Truxillo: It is stated in a letter from the capital of Honduras that Guardiola refuses to fight with the Yankees, as they are, as he says, irresistible; and he states his Intention of leaving the State ef Honduras should the Americans enter. The prevalent feeling among the leading natives of Truxillo, and more especially those engaged in mercantile affairs, is that of neutrality in the matter of a change in the government of the country. If Walker should come and succeed in establishing himself, they say that they are willing to give him a trial. They have for so long a period been suffering from weak and changing governments that any government having the element of stability, provided the property of the inhabitants is respected, would be welcome. Capt.

Nickerson says that the reports there were to the effect that Walker's army was increasing, and that he expected to be In a short time at the head of two thousand men. The time for the election of a President of the Republic of Honduras, according to the provisions of the Constitution, would shortly arrive. That officer is elected by the votes of the two chambers, the Senate and Legislative chambers, each consisting of fourteen members. The anti-Cabanas and anti-Walker party, from present appearances, will not attempt to elect their candidate, especially if the reported invasion by Cabanas and his American allies become an actual fact This province, for the possession of which a struggle is apparently soon to take place, contains 03,680 square miles of territory, and a population of It is traversed by numerous mountain ranges, the valleys between which are numerous and fertile. Harper's Gazeteer says hat its mine-il wealth is considerable, comprising gold, silver, lead and copper; also opals, emeralds, asbestos and cinnebar.

In the interior the climate is salubrious, but on the North Coast and on the shores of the Pacific the heat often ranges 120 degrees, producing many annoying insects. There are extensive forests abounding in mahogany, cedar and mora, (a species of fustic.) Cattle of a fine breed also abound. The inhabitants are willing that settlers should have all the land they want, and grants have been promised by Walker to his soldiers. Nicaragua, where Walker is now in command, his 49,000 square miles of territory, and a population of 217,000. It is a singular fact that in this country the females generally exceed the males in number.

Capt Nickerson states that the reported discovery of rich gold mines in the Province of Olancho, Honduras, was exciting considerable attention at Truxillo. A California miner, seeing specimens of the gold, declared that It must be a rich digging, and started off for a personal inspection. Several other Americans had also left for the mines. A letter received at Truxillo makes some statements in regard to the capture, by Walker, of the town of Granada, Nicaragua, (said to be the strongest place In the country, having a population of ten thousand,) which we have not seen bef.jre. When Walker entered the plice at the head of about fifty Americans, he found Chomorro, the President of the Republic, with his officers, in a ball-room.

Entering the room, Walker waved his sword in the air. cryingout. "Hurrah for Democracy," and took all present prisoners. Before he left the room Chomorro was compelled to sign articles of capitulation, but afterwards finding how small was the force to which he had surrendered, he sent written orders to the otli cer in command not to give up the place. This letter by some means reached the hands of Walker, as he was entering a church with Chomorro.

He read and placed the the letter in his pocket, and after the services were over he inquired of Chomorro if he wrote it, and he did not den it. A drum-head court martial was summoned, by whose sentence Chomorro and fifteen of his officers were shot. Later from Florida. Progress of the Seminole War. The Indian outrage In Florida hag created an Intense excitement in that State.

The Tampa Peninsular, of the 12th, states that the U. S. troops stationed on the line of the Indian territory, are to be kept on scouting service, until instructions shall have been received from the V.Tar Department, with a view to intimidate the savages, and thereby prevent further depredations. in a communication to the same paper Captain Casey estimates the number of Indian warriors remaining in East Florida "at not over 100, including men and boys." He puts down the women and children at 300 to 350. The following letter of a volunteer, dated at Fort Aleade, Jan.

4th, gives the latest intelligence and the spirit of the campaign: On the arrival of Capt. Hooker, on the 29th he proceeded at once to select proper loca'ions for troops on the line of Peas Creek. Four points were selected, to wit: Fort Aleade. Fort Hartsulf, about 25 miles south of Fort Aleade, Fort Green, about twelve miles southeast of the latter post, and Fort Hooker, sixteen miles north of Fort Aleade. Each station-having from 16 to 25 men; leaving large party for general scouting.

From these Posts a detachment of, perhaps, two-thirds of the command make daily scouts up and down the creek. or cro33 over as they may see proper. All the families on the south side of Peas creek have abandoned thetr places and are now forted at the above posts. The command of Captains Hooker and Leslie now amounts to 124 men, and Is made into two companies. Capt.

Leslie commands theupperand Capt. Eookerthe lower Peas creek. You may judge something of the spirit of Capt. Hooker, (who is denominated bv the troops as the Old War Horse,) from a portion of his orders to his lieutenants at the several posts. He says: ''Should you discover Indians, or the trail of them, you will pursue them to the farthest extremity sparing neither men or horses while on that duty." Leslie, in his saddle.

Is not a whit behind his colleague. His energy and activity plaees him among the bevs of fifteen or twenty eirs. His command idolizes him, and, wherever he may go, be prepared to hear a good account of him. Our war cry is and countersign tlNo The writer adds that volunteers are daily arriving, and that the spirit of revenge is rife among them for the supposed death of Lieut. Hartsuff As, however, it has since been ascertained tha the lieutenant, although wounded, is alive, the excitement may, probably, somewhat abate.

Virginia and the Fugitive Slave Law Prcpjscd Retaliation A select committee of the Virginia House of Delegates has reported a bilj "to protect James Parsons, of Hampshire, and other citizens of the Commonwealth, in the prosecution and maintainance of their constitutional lights." The said Parsons is now under recognizance to appear before the county court of Blair county. Pa to answer to the charge of kidnapping, under the laws of said State, he having pursued to said county and endpavored to reclaim a fugitive slave, in pursuance of the provisions of the act of Congress known as the "fugitive slave law." The bill prohibits the said Parsons, under a penalty of 0,000. from appearing and pleading to the charge aforesaid, and provides that the Commonwealth of Virginia shall assume on his behalf all costs, fines, forfeitures, incurred by his non-appearance the amount to be paid by the Governor out of the contingent fund. The bill further provides that if the said Parsons shall here- af'er be arrested and imprisoned upon the charge aforesaid, the Governor of Virginia is directed to demand his immediate surrender, and in default thereof shall cause the writ of habeas corpus to be applied for, If his release be not then effected, the Governor is days after the proclamation, to and imprison all citizens, and to seize and hold all property of the State of Pennsylvania and of citizens thereof, until the release and surrender of said Parsons. For the enforcement of the proceedings contemplated by proposed law, the Governor is authorized to call upon and command the services of all civil and military officers of the State, and all private citizens whatsoever, It is further provided that the provisions of this bill shall be extended to any other citizen Virginia who may hereafter be placed in the situation of said Parsons, An American Baroness.

The following Invitation card announced in Paris an interesting, if not important fact: "The Baron Louis de Waechter, Chamberlain of His Alajesty the King of Wurtemburgh, has the honor to inform you of the marriage of Alonsieur the Baron Auguste de Waechter, his brother, Chamberlain of His Al ajesty the King of Wurtemburgh, and Envoy Extraordinary and Alinister Plenipotentiary near His Alajesty the Emperorxif France, with Alademoiselle Josephine Louisa Lee, daughter of Aladame the Widow Lee, (of New Y'ork.) and invites you to be present at the nuptial benediction, which will be given them at the Church ef the Redemption, Rue Chsuchat, Thursday, 20th December, at 1 o'clock precisely." The match between the Baron Waechter and Aliss Lee, now the Baroness Waechter, was made up last summer at the Spiings of Baden, and aside lrom the Baron's title and the lady's hundred and fifty thousand dollars, the match was an agreeable one to both parties. The Baron Waechter is about forty years of age N. Y. Express. Slavery in the Cherokee Nation.

The national council of the Cherokee Nation some time Mnce past-ed an act to preserve slavery in that territory, and to prohibit the employment of abolitionists in the public schools. I'be bill, however, was subsequently vetoed by Chief John Boss The Dismissal AIajor Henshaw from the Army. We have already stated that the President had carried out the sentence of a court-martial, dismissing Brevet Alajor John C. Henshaw frem the U. S.

Army. Secretary Davis, in announcing the decision, says the case Involves some principles which it is well to bring to the at. ten tlon of the Army. He then adds: The charges against Alijor Henshaw allege a breach cf the Sth article of war, for disrespect to Alajor Andrews, in a letter to the head-quarters of the army; and a breach of the 83d article, in making false statements concerning him in that letter. Alajor Henshaw pleaded in bar of these charges of the first, that his letter was written to exhibit charges against Alajor Andrews, and to take an appeal from him to their common superior, and that it cannot be a disrespect to exhibit charges or take an appeal; and in bar of the other, that an accuser is not triable for the truth of the charges till the accused is tried and acquitted thereof.

These pleas the court overruled. The right In charges and appeals is not to be exercised in any mode or style the subordinate pleases, but with some reasonable circumspection, and in good faith, and in subjection to the controlling law of discipline, which to sustain military authority requires obedience and forbids disrespect to commanding officers. These rights and the mode of exercising them have been well and carefully defined in the General Order from the War DeDartment. No. 16.

of 1851. Under color of charges or appeals, a subordinate has no right to avail himself of the opportunity to behave with contempt to his commanding officer. Where such case is alleged in the specification, a court martial will entertain and try the charge. As to the other exception, it was not competent to the court to sustain it. It was matter properly for the authority appointing the court.

The court was empowered in this case to try both officers, but it was competent for the authority appointing the court to decide otherwise and to judge which should be put on trial. The court, in convicting Alajor Henshaw on the 3d charge, have pronounced their opinion in favor of Alajor Andrews on imputations against him covered by that charge. The evidence.however, shows misconduct on the part ef Alaj Andre ws.which was not put in Issue, which the court declined to examine and on wrhich they have returned no opinion. An experienced officer "who had served with him admits his treatment of his men to be harsh and violent, and his conduct very "reprehensible" in this respect. This was the considerate testimony of a friendly witness, and is such evidence of fact as calls for a decided expression of the opinion of the President.

A commanding officer has no right to be insulting, harsh or abusive to those in his command. Both officers and enlisted men are equally entitled to be protected from ill treatment by him. An officer who commits such offences is wanting in some of the essential qualifications for command; and it is to be regretted that a thorough investigation of this matter was not made by putting Alajor Andrews on trial. Agricultural Operations of the Patent Office. A seed establishment in London, about a year ago, presented to the Patent Office twenty-six varieties of turnip seed, with the understanding that they should be cultivated in every State and Territory of the Union, with the view of obtaining accurate reports of the results of the experiments.

Numerous reports have been already received, from which the National Intelligencer learns that the success of each variety has been variable in different localities, and often in the same locality In some instances comjrialnts have been made that the seeds would not germinate, while other accounts from the same localities state that all the desired results were fully realized. It is believed that the mass of testimony thus received will be amply sufficient to Indicate the applicability of each variety to the peculiar locality in which suc cess has attended its culture. A favorable report. in a single instance, is always deemed sufficient to prove what ninety-nine failures might to some minds seems to disprove the ninety-nine showing nothing more than that, in such instances, the right means had not been used, or that injury to the seeds had occurred by means of heat, drought, either before or after sowing, or that the soil was sterile and could not produce, or too rank and fertile, and therefore developed topsuin- sieaa oi roots, i ne same estaDiisnment has recently presented to the Patent Office, in sufficient quantity, thirty varieties of cabbage seeds, which have been distributed with the same object. Another house in the same line of business, at Paris, has presented five varieties of peas, one thousand pints of each, to be appropriated in like manner; and a house at Hamburg has presented a Quan tity of the seeds of each "of the varieties of grass now cultivated in Kurope.

An Interesting Case For some days past a case of great interest has been argued before the" Virginia Court of Appeals In this city. The parties to the controversy are the Alethodist Episcopal churches, Nonh and South, and while this particular case only involves a title to church property In one locality, (the county of Fauquier.) its decision will have an influence upon other suits, growing out of the division of the church. Judges Allen, Lee, Aloncure, Daniel and Samuels are present, and some of the mo'st eminent legal talent in the State is employed in the argument. Richmond Whig. LOCAL.

MATTERS. Lecture at the Hall ef the Maryland Institute. The regular lecture at the Hall, last evening was made by the Hon. John P. Kennedy, and his subject was "An Incident in Alaryland History." W7ith the pre-conceived idea that Mr.

Kennedy had in contemplation the publication of a history of our State, and with a knowledge of his ability to do full justice to whatever of incident, special or peculiarly interesting, which might fall in his way, during his researches, we were prepared to listen to a literary feast. And from the large audience in attendance, both of ladies and gentlemen, the inference is that they too expected a treat. At the appointed time the Hon. Joshua Vansant, president of the Institute, came forward aud introduced Air. K.

to the audience, after apologising for the disappointment in not having the Hon. Air. Hilliard, of Alabama, to appear, as had been expected, on account of indisposition. Air. Kennedy was received with applause, and commenced the lecture or narration of "the incident." We will not pretend to give the discourse, for that could not be well done, with justice to the author, without having possession of his own manuscript.

There are few persons who have gone in a steamboat from our city to Port Deposit who have not seen and admired the scenery on th Susquehanna river, particularly that portion of the rocky shore known as Alount Arrarat. At this point he commenced the history of a tradition, having its origin near two hundred years ago, in reference to a cave in that spur of rock, and which was known as "Talbott's Cave" a place of security which could not be approached except by a very narrow path or by the river. The cave is now among the things that were. A government contract has carried much of the rocky formation to the "Rip Raps." Air. Kennedy, with this starting point, led his audience from Alt.

Arrarat to other portions of Alaryland, and gave an insight why this was called "Talbott's Cave. And here he entered into a history, his supposition being fortified, of Colonel George Talbott, one of the first of the settlers of Alaryland, which brought him to a Teview of the settlement of St. Alarv's, the difficulties with the colony of Virginia, His arrest and being taken to England and tried his conviction and pardon oy King james 11, were spoKen off. The reasons of his taking refuge in this cave being the murder ef Christopher Rousely, who was an officer of the Revenue at the time. Air.

Kennedy made the lecture almost altogether in the shape of a personal narrative, in which he brought forward his own visits to St. Mary's, St. Inego's, the archives of the State at Annapolis, and a personal interview with some who were regarded as the oldest inhabitants, during which he found much to illustrate this particular "incident." -The heroic devotion of Col. Talbott's wife, with that of Cornet Alurray, Hugh Reilly, and other Irishmen in the cause of the colonel, was graphically told. The lecture will, we presume, embrace a chapter in the expected forthcoming work, and as a historiaal effort will be read with all the interest connected with a romance.

The delivery of the lecture occupied about one hour and forty minutes. Commissioners of Public Senools. The following resolutions, offered by S. Alorris Cochran, Esq in the Board of School Commissioners, it is expected will be acted upon at their next meeting: Resolved by the Board of Commissioners of Public Schools of the city of Baltimore, That the Senators and members of the House of Delegates of the General Assembly of Alaryland from the city of Baltimore be, and they are requested, to use their influence to obtain the passage of a resolution by the Legislature recommending the establishment of a National Bureau of Education in connection with the Department of the Interior, the same to be located in the city of Washington; the purposes of the said National Bureau of Education to be the collection of the statistics of public instructions from the different States and Territories of the American Union; the embodying of thesame in the form of reports of circulation throughout the country, and for the encouragement of education and the spreading of enlightenment throughout the country. Resolved, That the Alayor and City Council of Baltimore be requested to sanction these proceedings and co- operate with the board in procuring the passage of the resolution hereby recommended, and if, in the judgment of the Alayor and City Council, a memorial to the legislature of the State, signed by the citizens of Baltimore, be necessary In securing the desired object, that the same be provided and presented to the people for their signatures.

seems to nave imported a winter irom tne iorth. A correspondent of the Petersburg Express, writing from Rappahannock county, on the 12th says Not within the recollection of the very oldest Inhabitants has the weather been so severe or the snow so deep and frequent. At the time that I write, the roads are completely blocked up, and in many piaces, wnere it has armea, me snow lies twenty -five Jeet deep Every mill stream within 40 or 50 miles Is frozen up, and has been for a considerable length of time, so that all grioding by water power is suspended. Speak of the extremities of the poor in the city, but I leave you to imagine how the poor man suffers here. Alany, even in the golden walks of life, jingle their dollars in vain for meal, and are constrained to pull their corn from the shocks or cribs, and grind it in coffee mills.

Jf you were only here just to see the long ridges of hills and mountains, and how they look in their snowy covering Fvery tree is a wonder in itself, with its branches of white waving beautifully between one another; and every shrub and bush that cover the cleared hills looking like tufts of spotless ermine. The Rappahannock river is frozen over below Islington, a point some distance below Tappa-hannock. At Port Royal the river Is crossed on the Ice by wagons and horses. The snow at Lynchburg, on Tuesday, was six inches deep, and there are drifts three feet deep in gthe cuts aloig the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad. Interesting from Rome.

Wre gather the following from a letter in the Newark (N.J.) Advertiser, dated Rome, December 22: The venerable widow of Louis Phillippe, who has been seriously ill at her charming winter residence in the neighborhood of Genoa, is, I am happy to say, convalescent. Her sons, Prince de Join-ville and the Duke d'Aumale, have, in consequence, set out on a visit to England, via Germany. Air. Fillmore, who is accompanied by Dr. Foote, of Buffalo, formerly Alinister to Austria, still lingers at Florence, but is expected to reach this city next week.

Among the American winter residents in the country I notice the name of the senior edi-. tor and proprietor of the New York Herald. The weather has become freezing cold. Alost of the streams of the Peninsula are closed with ice, and the hills are everywhere covered with snow. It is confessedly the severest winter, thus fur, experi-rienced in Italy in twenty years.

The fete of the Immaculate Conception, which commenced on the Sth, was protracted to the 15th an octave of sacerdotal festivity. I'o signalize the occasion the Pope declared a jubilee, and accorded full indulgence from the first day to the 13th Sunday of the Advent. The Holy See is seeking to fortify itself by calling in counsellors from abroad. At the Consistory of" the Sacred College, on the 17th four new cardinals were created, who are to reside at Rome, viz: Archbishop Villecourt, of Rochelle, in France the doctor who pronounced the declaration of the Immaculate Conception an act of divine inspiration, superseding the necessity of all historic evidence the Archbishops of Vienna (ttauscner; ana oi Munich, (tteisacn,) ana Mgr. Gaude, Procurer General of the Four other prelates.

I am well assured, have been designated for promotion at the next Consistory in Alarcb, viz: Algrs. Pietro, late Apostolic Nuncio at Lisbon, Aledici, the Alajor-dorno of His Holiness, Giannuzzi, Auditor of the Chamber, and Grasselinni, pro-legate of Bologna. The promotion of the French prelate, besides being highly fit in itself, is held to be a capital stroke of palicy, since it conciliatef the Emperor Napoleon, who has engaged to pay the expenses of the installation, estimated at 30,000 francs. His Eminence will betheFrei.ch counselor of the Holy See in the Sacred College, and thus receive the usual salary of resident cardinals, 1,000, besides perquisites. The Case of AIrs.

Gaines. A writer in the New Orleans Delta contends that Airs. Gaines is by no means certain of obtaining a fortune by the late decision in her favor. He quotes the opinion of the court to fortify his opinion, and adds: The probate of a will is a mere ex parte proceeding, and is always granted if the applicant can make out a prima-facie case; but it has no binding effect on any one. Should Airs.

Gaines attempt to claim any property sold by the executors under the former, the parties sued could still, In addition to their other defenses, such as prescription, attack the validity of the will, or as the court observes, "show that no such will was executed The probability is that Mrs. Gaines would not be able to recover anything from Daniel Clark's estate, even if there were a valid will in her favor, exeept what she might obtain by compromises from partieswho do not wish to be annoyed bv litigation, for the simple reason that Daniel Clark's estate always was, and still is. insolvent. A Sad Reverse of Fortune. The N.

Y'ork Alirror tells the following sad story "A few years ago a young gentleman of this city engaged in a mercantile business which promised to be sufficiently profitable to give him a handsome support, married a young and accomplished lady. 'Soon after "things went wrong," and he failed, giving up everything to his creditors. With the loss of income, loss of health followed; and, to add to his wretchedness, his family increaspd. He is now confined to his bed; his child, also, is sick, and the poor wife and mother, destitute of food and fuel, has to beg for work and bread.

The tongue stuck fast, of course, and the poor boy suffered great agony. Several passers endeavored to release him, but In vain. Matters were in this situation for over five minutes, when a gentleman named Taylor went into the Telegraph House and brought some hot water and whisky, with which he bathed the tongue of the suffering boy, finally liberating about one-half, leaving the other sticking to the post, where it remained for the balance of the day. a warning to youngsters how they recklessly lick cold iron in freezing weather.
