It is well known that the painter David had in his earlier years cherished the most exaggerated political opinions. His ardent imagination feasted on the recollection of Brutus and Scan-ola, until he longed for the austere independence of a Roman Republic. Happily for the fame of David, on his deliverance from the prison of the Luxembourg at the first revolution, lie gave up the boisterous activity of political life, and devoted himjelf so successfully to his art, that he became the restorer as well as the head, of the French school of painting. David's reputation as ahistorical painter was already established, when Bonaparte returned from Italy covered with glory. Shortlv after his arrival in Paris, he was elected a member of the National Institute, and expressed a desire to become acquainted with his talented colleague.

Neither of the two great parties has a clear majority in the House, and the balance of power, and the obligation to elect a Speaker, and the political action of that Speaker on the great ubjectof discussion, slavery, are all dependant upon the Free Soil members of the House. The organization of the present Congress, the character of the committees, aod the influence which the election of Speaker will have on the much agitated subject, are all hanging on the decision of the three members from Connecticut, elected by Free Soil votes.

The whole responsibility of all the great measures of Congress, hangs upon them. How will thit vot is now the question asked in every part of the Union. Will their Free Soilism be so far forgotten as to be merged in their Democracy We shall soon see. The National Era, at Washington, the leading Free Soil poper in the" country, lias the following remarks "The new members from the North, elected by Democrat, or by Democrats and Free Soiler, have been written to, and their favor for a Southern candidate for the Speakership has been invoked, on the ground that the Northern members can furnish no suitable man for that position." It goes on to say, that "if Northern Democrats choose to vote for Mr. Cobb or any body else, let them do it deliberately, with their eyes wide open, fully aware of all the responsibility they assume.

Mr. Cobb if an inflexible opponent of the Wilmot Proviso opposed to the whole policy of the anti-slaverr movement and was the head manager on the last night of the session, of the game to defeat the Free Soil men, and fasten slavery upon the Territories. If Democratic members, elected on solemn pledges of opposition to the extension of t-lavery, choose to support him for the Speakership, let them do so, and assume the full responsibility of breaking their pledges and betraying their constituencies but let them not add to the guilt of treason, that of hypocrisy let them not dare to impute on the People the falsehood, that the cause of Free toil has found a friend or a neutral in Mr. Cobb."

Col. Fuller has it seems been made the object of special vengeance by a class of would-be authors, (I do not refer to either Byron or Powell of course not, for to do so might be considered offensive,) who, unable to palm their pretended works upon the British public, seek to find a market for their trash in the United States. It is not merely literary quacks, however, who endeavor thus to humbug "Brother Jonathan." The same may be said of actors, newspaper penny-a-liners, and indeed of, the members of almost every profession, who come out here with an English, Irish, German or French reputation, as the case may be, and assume airs so very my place is in my studio," replied David modestly.

The stage following the one we were in, fell over a precipice so steep, that it was impossible for any one to walk either up or down it, and variously estimated at from 100 to 150 or 200 feet deep, with a rapid river (the Yonhoghauy) flowing at its base. Providentially the coach was caught by a tree some fifty or sixty feet from the top, otherwise, I think all the passengers must have been killed. Mr. Clarke, of Cincinnati, was found in the coach totally helpless.

It seemed the general impression that he could not live. Another, whose name I did not learn, was found, (during my absence from the scene,) I was told, some fifty feet below the coach, insensible and scarcely alive.

The poems now published are the only memorial that remains of his genius. Some of them have already appeared both before and since his death, in the American Review.

But do not fear; my painting shall be talked The artist worthily accomplished the desired portrait of the First Consul. Napoleon is therein represented sitting calmly on a fiery horse while he ascends Mont St. Bernard the ample clouk in which he is enveloped, floats in the wind and he is in the act of commanding his army to pass the Alps. The names of Hanuibal and Charlemagne are graven upon the rocks in the foreground and in the distance are seen groups of soldiers and trains of artillery. When this painting was shown to Napoleon, after bestowing on the artist all the praise which was his due, he began to speak of the groups of figures in the background.

A letter from a druggist, established at San Francisco, dated Sept. 18th, states "I have lately purchased invoices of drugs over 50 per cent less than the same cost in New York and Philadelphia. I bongbt a case, 100 ounces Sulphate of Quinine, at two dollars per ounce, a prime article. No one will bring out drugs with them at prices they are now obliged to sell them for." ated in their own country. It is no veiy uncommon occurrence for third or fourth rate English vocalists and concert-givers to leave their native land for this, think- ing thereby to realize a fortune in a few years, so confidently do they rely upon the gullibility of the American people.

Ditto, with the former attache of London and other European papers, who come out here and "lord it over" their American cotemporaries. It is a well known fact that about one-fourth of the working editors and reporters connected with the New York press were formerly in some capacity employed by European publishers. This will account, to some extent, for the sneers that are occasionally found in New York papers at American peculiarities and habits conflicting with those by which these scribblers were influenced in their youthful days. Some people imagine when they pick up a New Y'ork daily, that they have got hold of the writings of its "responsible" editor, and that every editorial article they peruse is the production of his pen or brain, if you choose. Now this is a great mistake, as I will endeavor to show.

Bennett, for instance, never writes aline for the Herald his "forte" lies in dictating to his employee, mostly foreigners, who, it cannot well be denied, are eminently qualified for the task of penning gassy, egotistical, nonsensical, and yet to some entertaining "leaders." The Messrs. Beach of the Sun have no connection with the editorial department of their paper, any further than instructing their editors to pursue a certain course on given subjects. The Sun, by the way, under the management of the young Beaches and the editorial guidance of C. D. Stuart, is by far the best penny paper in the United States.

Mr. Stuart has given to its columns an American perhaps I should say, a New England tone, that has done much to improve the paper, and make it an agreeable morning visiter. Its leading articles, of a religious character, indicate that there is somebody at the helm who has been favored with a Puritan education somewhere in the East-era States. Mr. Greeley writes the greater number of the Tribune leaders, but not all.

He has associated with him writers of more than ordinary ability, whom he can safely entrust in his absence and indisposition to write. Mr. Brooks, of the Express, and Col. Fuller of the Mirror are probably the most industrious "responsible" editors of the daily press. Col.

Webb writes a leading article for ihe Courier occasionally, Mr. Raymond who has lately been elected a member of the Legislature doing the greater part of the editorial work. But, to be brief those men who are generally known abroad as the editors of our daily papers, do the least part of the writing, and in many instances, none at all. Men unknown to the public whose names are seldom whispered outsideof the different offices, do all the drudgery, and give character whether good or other- wise to our newspapers. I have digressed somewhat from my original purpose, but I am satisfied if.

the facts communicated will cause people, in the habit of reading our daily papers, to receive with suspicion and due allowance for the'source from which they emanate, sneers at American institutions and the American character which often creep into "local" and "city" DEATO, At East Iladdam, Nor. 12th, of dropHrs.

Sutter is now in town, and is one of the fathers of his coTmtry. A brief sketch of his past life may not be uninteresting to our readers, as his name is as familiar as a household word all over the United States. John A. Sutter is a Swiss by birth, and possesses the love of liberty inspired by the air of his native mountains. He early sought foreign service, and was a lieutenant in the infantry of France during the reigu of Charles and after battling like a hero at Grenoble with a fidelity for which the Swiss are truly remarkable, he only capitulated when the revolution was consummated and Charles an exile.

He then embarked for the United' States, of whose institutions he has ever been a warm and patriotic admirer, and engaged in various encountering many vicissitudes and freaks of fortune, he concluded to move to Oregon, from whence he emigrated to California. With chivalrous daring he took up his abode in the valley of the Sacramento as its first white inhabitant. He made two attempts to satisfaction to ail growers ot tine wool, lhose now noticed are equal in every respect, we should judge, of those first imported. They combine every requisite, in a fine sheep, fine form, good constitution, compactness and weight of fleece, nnd fineness of fibre.

Let those who have been withheld from vice by a mother's warnings who have been guided in the path to rectitude by a mother's teachings who have felt that their destinies through life and for eternity have been created by a mother's prayers, buy this book to bring back to their memories all that is holy and happy in their earliest spring time of life.

1 Another Pass tort Question. The result of the election in New York having proved to onr friends of the sole organ that they could make nothing more by attacking Mr. Clayton for refusing a passport to a colored person, they have raised another passport question. They now assail Mr. Clayton on the ground that "Mr.

Barnnger has been stopped on the Spanish frontier because the Secretary of Slate, from inefficiency or carelessness, did not furnish him with the necessary documents to enable kirn to reach hi destination for we presume that the cabinet, after full consultation, would not appoint an envoy to Spain who did not know how to reach Madrid. Where is this State bungling to end Is our country to be disgraced and become a laughing stock among the nations by an obstinate adherence to the Claytoniau system We do not expect the "sole organ" to be correct two mornings in succession but we did not suppose that i it would be quite so simple as to make a prominent misstatement in one column, and unwittingly to furnish the means of correcting it in another. Under the telegraph-' ic head we find the following announcement The wretched system of passports in France is fully shown by the following incident The police gent at the frontier had stopped the new ambassador of the United 8tates at Madrid as he was entering Spain, on the 17 th, because his passport was not signed at Bayonne." The fault, it seems, is not with Mr. Clayton, but with the French friends of the foreign organ. Will it retract its editorial or its news.

Napoleon had no sooner been proclaimed Emperor, than he appointed David bis painter, and commanded him to prepare six large paintings for the Louvre, the subject of one of which was to be the coronation.
