'fillBd iDks, jessamines, tuberoses, and, above flowers. Egyptian mats. P.aa carpets, divan, covered with satin or velvet, generally compose all the furailure of a kiosk.

Such are, ui general, these far famed country bouses of the Turks. The 6nest palaces bare no parks, but are merely surrounded by gar. dens, in which you in am seek for the iksle and various beau ies of those of our own Wand. When the Turkish Ambassador returned from St. Petersburgh, Mahmo d.

who had never seen anything finer than bis own country bouse, asked Klialil Pacha if the summer ps'aco of the Czar surpassed in magnificence the kiosk of Slavnw, upon the Asiatic side. The Mussulman Ambassador baring replied that rha nalace of the Russian Emperor was much more msjnificenf, M.ihmnud immediately gave orders lo have his Slavros kiosk considerably enlarged, in the European stvle. after some plans that had been riven to him. The courtiers, and the favorites of the Seraglio, in order to nav court to the Sultan, followed his example; so that the Bovphorus soon saw on its banks pavillions, approach in form and stvle. those which stud the marsin of the Neva.

The Grand reinior passes the whole of the summer on the shores of the Bosyhorus. He goes from kiosk lo kiosk, taking wiih him hu guards, his lavernes, and nis I ten Oglans. Ja CVemo Sconaamm, ot Istamoot, has not spared lhat which the Mussulmans call the 'shade of But the kiosks of the Julian have no longer any mysteries, a malicious spirit of curiosity has unveiled all their secrets. It is whispered, on the snores of tha Boephorus, that ahmoud often jr gets, with some Greek ladies, the 300 wives of the Seraglio that be is passionately fond of their dances and that he pours copious libations, in the oiikI cratljr wines of Europe, lo the genius of modern civilization. There would be some danger, it must be confessed, in attempting te verify these facts ind, even then, no one would be foolish enough lo boast of having seen them all with his own eyes.

Ncverthe'es, these reports are in circidation, and give great umbrage lo the true believers. Bui tempore stKantvr eight or nine years ago, nolh ng was bought of in these seil saroe kiosks but cutting off head; an 1 1 would rather have to draw a vej over the weakness of human nature, than to deplore the stern decrees of despotism. The Sultan may have as many kiosks as be likes, construction of Ibis sort of edifices is net her long nor expensive and then his Highness makes no scruple te appropriate to bis own use ail such as take his fancv. lie metimrs makes a preset: fi pavilion lo ooe of his ministers or courtiers; and when the orevis domirrum has expended all bis money in embelhslung his new abode, he is suddenly obliged to bid ad.eu to bis gardens, that he bad laid out in bis owaium to his kiosks, that formed his sole delight Iinquenda tetfas ei oiesnts. This is just what happened a snort time ago to the Seraskter Pacha.

Whether you ascend or descend ine Bosphorus, you equaflv perceive lae former habitat one of Seraskier Pacha, of the Sudan Secretary (Mastapha IssTendi,) and of the Egyptian mister, Inedgil Effeadi. The latter was the most liberal man the empire, reste, 1 am Inld that the most part of the noble inhabitants of the Bosphnrns lead a joyooa life; every kiosk has its harem and us mysteries and the rich Effeadsi, surrounded with Greek and Turkish houris, find here below a paradise, like that which their prophet has promised them in heaven. I was shown la the north of Scutara, at Ea kua Lemani, the kiosk where the Keis Effeadi received the Christian Ambassadors during the late war with Russia. The whole carpt diftlomattqua was assembled tneir daily, lor tne dogs ot Aloscow were rapwiy ap preaching Old Istamboi, aad already ihe grand Seignior had demanded of the ainbassaJors of England and France if they would follow him solo Asia. However, the Keis Effendi lost nothing of his imperturbable gravity evwa on uus critical occasion, or, in fact, omitted any of ibe ctrrroootes in use among the Osmanus.

Before opening each conference, on which pernaps depended Ihe salvation of the empire, Ibe Ottoman Minister would have thought not only that he should insult Western Europe, but thai be should even lower the dignity of his own government by not regaling their Chrisusn Excellencies wiih pipes, coffee aod pe fumes. Imagine for a moment a party of illustrious diplomat arts seal for critical moment, passing the first precir nour in in halm? Persian tobacci tl.M a jessamine or cherry stick tube. However, peace was coocludcd, which proves mat aa empire may oe saved even overs pipe, But it is not only the Princes of Islam ism, or the Grandees of Conslanunon who choose retreats upon these beau'ihil shores there not a Turkish, Greek, Armenian, or ewtsn merchant, wno, alter tne close confinement of ibe counting bouse, but comes ia the eve ning to inhale the sea breeze in a kiosk, oo the right or left Dank of the Bosphorns. The country houses otibesa merchants kre all very plain, in order not to attract the avaricious eyes of the Porte. A few planes lo shade them from the sun a view of the Bosphorus are all they require, for their object is rather concealment than display.

The editor of the New York Bibiist Register, hsvtnj recently visited the Lunalic Asylum at Hudson, relates the following in stance of the effect of a mild and judicious treatment ot an insane patient, which occurred at that place. Boston journal: A professional gentleman of some distinction, of giant sue and sreal s'rength, who could fell a man wilh a blow, escaped Com bis room, and on his way through the entry, fell in with another gentleman in the same slate ol mental alienation, and proposed to him that they should make a tour through the Union together.

The proposal was agreed to readily, by the afflicted gentleman addressed, and Ibe utmost pleasure and confidence as to its execution. The keepers became alarmed by determination manifested and on their further progress, the athletic gentlemen insisted upon it, that a positive contract had been made in the matter, and it could not be broken. The keepers, knowing his strength, and apprehending that it would be no light affair to grapple with il, sent for Doci. White.

Hvaioo, of Birmingham, made another experiment with their steam coach, lo ascend the hill at Bromsgrove Lickry, which is a loose sandy surface, so much so, that the wheels of their machine (about fLleen hundred weight) carried a hill of sand before tbem about three inches deep. The hill is about seven hundred yards 'ong. and rises on an average one yard in niae, and in some places one yard in eight, aad is declared by eminent surveyors lo be the worst piece of road in the kingdom.

This morning about three or four o'clock a moat remarkable meteoric phenomenon aa wimeaaea oj hundreds of people coming from the country to market, and by others whose avocation Isd tbem kmail that earl hour.

Some two or three hours after midnight small shooting stars began to be ob served in the aky, which gradually increased in number and magnitude until the whole firmament appeared in motion with them, as if the planet and constellation were falling from their places. They were of various sizes, from the magnitude of Venus to that of the smallest perceptible fixed star. A person who witnessed this phenomenon describes the appearance presented by the heavens as magni ficent beyond conception. The general direction of these meteors was westerly, and their tracks as they descended towards the earth were nearly parallel.so that it appeared as if the cope of heaven wa raining down a shower of fire, which was driven in an oblique course by the wind. The appearance of the largest of these meteors was attended with a visible illumination of the atmosphere, like that caused by a faint flash of lightning.

Sometimes the observer, on turning in the direction from which the light appeared tc come, saw only a luminous trail, like that left bv a sky rocket, the meteor having already been extinguished. None of them seemed to reach the earth iu their descent, but ceased to be luminous about fifteen or twenty degrees from the horizon like torches dropped into an atmosphere too tntca and impure to support combustion. The phenomenon continued for more than an hour, after which the meteors gradually decreased in frequency and size, and finally disappeared altogether. A difference in political views sometimes obliges us to oppose the election of men for whom we enter tain the hishest personal respect. Such was the case with our opposition to Mr.

Verplanck, whose name was on the irregular Assembly ticket at the recent election. Our opinion of Mr. Verplanck's talents and worth had Buffered no abatement, and our regard for him as an individual was as warm as ever. There was no man whose election we would have laboured to promote more zealously we might even say, so zealously, had his name been found on our ticket and on the other hand there was no man on the spurious lut whose success it was so important to defeat, on account of the assis tance which the views of the corrupt and treacherous political association who made use of bis name. would have derived from the weight of his talents and character.

We know also that some of those who supported him at the election regretted that he had consented to such a nomination. While therefore we would not speak of Mr. Verplanck in any other than terms of respect for his personal character, we should have forfeited all claims lo political consis tency, we should have shown a disposition passively to give up the objects for which we have sn long been contending, if we had given the least support or countenance to a ticket framed under such auspi ces and for such purposes. We understand that some of the friends of Mr. McKeon misinterpret into an expression of censure, a clause in the paragraph which appeared in this paper a few days since, statin; the result of the elec tion.

Such was by no means our intention. We were well pleased to find Mr. McKeon'snamein the list of candidates selected by the nominating com mittee and we were pleased that he was selected, But in as tin ling the majorities, ws perceived that his majority from our party fell considerably below the average of the rest of the regular ticket and it seemed better to account for this by stating the cause which occasioned it, than to leave it to be surjiseWj that it resulted from any intristec aemerit on his part, or want tS popularity with the other canskrates. The fact was, that three of the regular democratic candidates were applied to by the lea ders of the Selden faction to know if they would consent to be run on their ticket. The answer of! two of thee was of such a nature that their names were not used the answer of Mr.

McKeon, whatever it was, or his silence, induced them to retain his name on their ticket. Wc did not censure the gentleman for his conduct in this matter bnt we simply stated it a a the cause of his having received a smaller democratic vote than any of his icllow candidates. Many, who voted for all the rest of the ticket, erased his name. hey probably did so under an impression that he had truckled to the enemy or entered into improper composition with them. We have no idea, however, that Mr.

McKeon did any thing in the slightest degree dishonorable, or thai he will not be, as heretofore, an active and efficient representative, true to the principles of his party, and attentive to the interests of liis constituents. The further returns from the eighth district ren der it still more probable that the democratic candi date for Senator, Mr. Jones, is elected, over Mr. Tracy, the anti masonic candidate. By the returns which we copy to day from the Albany Argus it will be seen that the aggregate of Mr.

Jones's ma jorities in three of the counties which have gone for him is much larger than the aggregate of his opponent's nsajorities in three other counties. In Gene sec, says the Albany Argus, the contest is extremely close and with respect to Allegany and Cattaraugus, it is not improbable that the republican candidate will have a majority in both. Without including Cataraugus or Genesee in the estimate, Mr. Jones is, according to our present ad vices, about 700 votes ahead of his competitor. Later from Ecbofc The packet ship Virginian, Captain Harris, has arrived, bringing London papers to the 6th of Octr.bcr and Liverpool papers to the 7th, both inclusive.

Among the news from Portugal are accounts of some fuither rever es sustained by Don Miguel. An scl ion took plat on the 14th of September, between the troops under Marshall Bourmont, and the forces of Don Pedro, in which the former were completely defeated. The attack was made at daybreak, on the lines of the city of Lisbon, and the as sailants, according to the account given in the Lisbon journals, were quickly repulsed with considerable slaughter. The young queen, Donna Maria, made her entrance into Lisbon on the 22d, accom panied by the English and French ambassadors, the commanders of the English men of war in the Portuguese waters, and the Portuguese officers of state. A vast multitude bad assembled to greet ber arrival, and received her with every demonstration of enthusiasm.

The next day she attended a review of the forces by which the lines of the city were defended. and which now amount to 25,000 men. The ac counts further state that on the 25th, Marshal Bour moot and the other French officers in the service of Don Miguel tendered their resignations, and the troops withdrew three leagnes from the lines. Newi of the death of the King of Spain had been received in England. It was not at first believed, but a Liverpool paper of the 7th of October states that official accounts of the event bad arrived.

He expiied on the 29th of September. The Dowager assumed the Regency, but continued the same ministers in office. The English journalists in speculating on this event, suppose itprobablo that Marshal Eourmont, alter giving up the command of the Miguelite force, will join Don Carlos in his march into Spain, and will bo assisted by many oi the same French officers who tendered their resig nations to Don Migwel on tSe 19th. Lord William Rased, the British ambassador at Lisbon, is to ret arm home, in consequence, it is said, of some disagreeiaent between bim and the British Cabinet, as to the policy to be pursued towards Por tugal. His place, it is said, will be applied by Lord Howard de Waldea, a more zealous liberal.

Her admitted into our ranks many soldiers ol all arms of the enemy, who have abandoned the usurper, Bui the most important piece of information is the assertion thai General Bourinont and all ihe French officers have quilted the cause of Don Miguel, who is thus left with a disorganised army, and desinuteof Generals. Some of Ihe Tory papers have labored lo thr iw doubts un this statement, but it comes in such official shape, and attended with so many circumstances, that we readily believe it. Previous lo the resignation and desertion, some negotiation look place between the English officers and Marshal Bourmont. Admiral Napier wrote to bim, but that letter appears not to have been favorably received.

Lord William Kussrll wrote lo him, and thai letter was ratber eagerly received. It is conjectured that one at least of these communications had fur ita object to convince the Marshal of the hopelessness "of the cause of Don Miguel, and provide means for an honorable termination ol the contest. It is supposed lhal these renresetuations bad some weisht wilh Bourinont, who endeavored to make ibetn tell with Miguel that this be got suspicions suspicions led to quarrels and that tne Marshal resigned is consequence. Miguel's army is nam commanded bv a Colonel Macdonald, and the Hount de Sl Lorenco avain fills Ihe post ef minister uf War. Misuel seems to hunt and amuse himsell as if war was not sport euongh for bim.

It would seem also that Ihe Portuguese officers bad not been cordial with Bouruioau A deserter stated that subsequently to ihe battle of ihe 15ih, General Lemos, tried for directing Ins troops to retire, instead of advance, oa that day, was sentenced to be shot, and executed. On rhe whole we may say that this news is extremely favorable lo ihe cause of Donna ana. II never bslore appeared so certain lo be successful, or so Dear a termination. Extract of a letter dated LissoH.Sept. 24.

Bourmnnt, seeing what is going on in Lisbon on the one side, and Ihe state of the Miguelue army oa Ihe other, has thrown up his command, together with Larochejacquelwi, and all Ihe other reach officers, lo the number of 160, of alt ranks. This is official, and more ban olficial, the certainty of il having been conveyed to me by Lord William Russel, by Iht English Admiral, and by the private secretary of Don Pedro. All he French officers were i ester day at ilia Franca, on their was lo Spain; but this evening I have been assured thai fiuunnonl and Clouet were on board of an English ship of war in the Taguee, and I believe it. Aa officer, whose name is Macdonald, is said to have taken the command of the Miguelue army but that army is, in fact, wholly disorganised, and destitute of necessaries. This slate of mi ery is further iucreased by the heavy rains, which have beguo lo day, and have brought it to such a condition that they cannot long hold together.

Lisboic, Sept. 24. Some days since, about 260 infant rv and 30 cavalry were embarked at the arsenal, ac coaianied by two gun boats, and proceeded, by the nver toAlcoxete, where the troops were disembarked, and marched on to amors, arriving there on ihe I4ih the object of the expedition bomg lo gain possession of a large qoanitlv of grain and rattle, collected together that place for Ihe supply of lha enemy's commissariat, and a portion belonging to ihe 1 lit am ado estate. The gun boats and others intended lo bringdown the supplies lollnwed the course of a new creek in the Tagus, leading lo Samora, and reached that town about Ihe same lime as ihe troops which had been land at Alcoxele.

The enemy, consisting of about 100 mi ilia and guerillas, retired on their approach, and being persued, some were killed, and the remainder dispersed by the cavalry in Ihe neighborhood of Bonaventa. The 14th, 16th, and I6th were occupied in loading aud sending away barges and boats of provisions to Lisbon, without interruption, until the evening of Ihe latter day, when a body ol the enemy appeared on ihe opposite side of the creek, below Sa inora, in Ihe rear of the gun boats, with a fie.d piece. The gun boats then stood down the river, under a heavy fire of grape and musketry, and one of theai succeeded in getting past, but Ihe mast of the other being thot a way, she gut aground; and they were compelled to abandon her, as well as a number of other boats they were engaged in loading at the lime of Ihe interruption. At this lime a considerable force of Ihe enemy had passed over Ihe stream a little distance above the towa therefore our troops considered it best to retreat, which was done, and on the following day Uity reached Barrora de Alva, where they forojtd junction with the main body of the small division on ihe south of the Tagus, operating under the command oi Oeneral Zagnllo.

SPAIN. Los DOS, Oct.

6. Ferdinand, King of Spain the Be loved of Ibe Legitimates the despised Embroiderer of the (JonsuluUoaalisls ended bis mortal career oo sun day last, at Madrid. This event, which had so long been anticipated, and far which recent accounts had fullv lirepared us, was transmitted from Bayoane lo ihe French Government by telegraph. The account, which is of course brief, merely adds that Ihe Queen had immediately assumed the Ilegrncy, aud llikt all was quiet in the capital. The assumption of the Regency was a matter ot course, according to the expressed will of the deceased and no reference as to ihe consequences of Ihe change in the head ol the Government can be formed from Ihe announcement, or from Ibe assertion that the capital was auiet for, il is probable thai the courier fi the French Embassy within a short period of Ferdinand's demise, and before Ike event was known lo many of the inhabitants of Madrid.

The disease under which Ihe Kmg has lingered for tike last twelve months was Ihe same which aiflxted his late Majesty George the Fourth and bis brother ihe Duke cf York. The exlremeues are said to have been frightfully swollen, and the skin so much discolored as to assume the appearance of what he French call Uimt plomb. His Majesty, for a long time has been unable lo move without assistance, and was carried lo and from bis carriage in a state of alter helplessness. Although fully convinced ihat the arty wiuch bad lbs ascendancy ai Court was nut favorable lo his views respecting bis mi ant daughter and her mother Iba Queen, yet, from prejudice, nabit, the influence of favorites, or probably ine nervous timtauy itinrss, ne hesitated lo make thechanfes required, uolil it probably was too late. Tha Queen, therefore, oa assuming the powers of Regent, to which she baa been nominated in lus Majesty's will, backed by a royal decree, will find herself surrounded by fklse friends, or bitter and uocom promising foes and if she has not had the precaution to draw anv large number of adherents lo the capital, ws have ao doubt that an attempt will be made at once to set aside ihe late acts ofher husband, and proclaim Don Carlos ruler of Spain.

London, Oct 5. We have this morning received tbe French pap is of Thursday, wilh a letter from our Paris correspondent of Ihe same date. The information they affurd is of a miscellaneous character, though not very imioriant possesses consiacrable interest. The Augs burgh Uaxetie, from which extracts are given in the journals, slates ihe result of the euulerences in Bohemia, so far as Ihe affairs of Germany are concerned will be lo concentrate ihe streusth of the Confederation, and that in furtherance of this abject, there will be a Congress of Ministers at Vienna, during ine winter. Among ine projects in contemplation, it is said to be ihe intention of the three Sovereigns lo establish a tribunal analogous to the ancient Aulic Council, to which all the German States will send representatives.

Tbe principal objeel for which this Couocd is lo be established, are stated to be the regulation of ihe press iu Germany and the punishment of political otiencrs. HOLLAND AND BELGIUM.

FRANCE. Lon dow, Oct. 6 It was confidently stated Paris on Wednesday, that Talleyrand resumes his diplomatic duties in Loudon in January. It was also believed that the Chambers would be summoned for the 15th of December. The uneasiness felt for some time by the French Government with rrsnect to the movements of the Duchess de Bern, has been at length dissipated by the arrival of certain information that she is on tier way to nrr family al Prague, accompanied by the eloquent but loo chivalrous champion of legitimacy, the Count de Chateaubriand.

Fortunately for all parties, the Duchess has, on this occasion, thought proper to consider even the tern of the majority of Henry V. not favorable to her views and France is, lor the present, to enjoy tranquility. A few young men have paraded Ihe streets of Par is and Marseilles, bearing the emblems of the exiled family, and some blows have been exchanged between them and Ihe fnends of ths Government, but, in ail other respects, the apparent feeling in favor of the exiles, is so weak, that il in, perhaps, wrong to speak of it, to any language but lhat of contempt.

The Ladies' aud Gentlemen's Pocket Annual fob 1834. Under (bis title Mr. J. Dimurnell of tins has published a neat pocket work, containing an almanac, a list of the officers of the General Government of Congress, of the army aud navy, foreign ministers. ruled blank places for memoranda and accounts, and a miscellany of prose and verse.

Tbe publication has been prepared under the editorship of Mr. E. Williams. Tbe second number of the City Hail Reporter and New York Law Magazine, was published on the 1st in stant and a copy has been lying on our desk for several days The class of readers for whose use and entertainment this periodical is chiefly designed are numerous enough in New York to affurd it liberal support. Messrs.

Carey and Hart have jusl issued an edition of 'Tbe Five Nights of Su Albans, a romance of ibe sixteenth century, by the author of First and It is fair to presume that this work has more than the ordinary degree of merit, as it has passed through two editions in London, a distinction which every novel does not arrive al. The same publishers have issued a new edition, in one volume of Coleman's Broad Grins. A Philadelphia paprr gives as one reason of its appro bation of ihe Mayor uf that city, for releasing a man ta ken up for receiving stolen goods, that his wife bakes well. The Mayor was right in treating bim lenient ly," says the paper, "or he is a decent man, end his wife is an excellent baker." Mr. Booth, who commences a short engagement at the American Theaire, this evening, in the character of Richard the Third, is without an equal in that part.

The Camden and Amboy Railroad Company have published an address to the public on the subject of the late fatal disaster on the railroad. They explain various means and precautions which ihey bad devised and adopted lo guard agaiost accidents, and explain wlial they suppose to have been the cause of the recent ca tastrophe. With regard to spoed, il seems they had established two hours and a quarter as the minimum time in which 'he trip (thirty five miles) should be perfumed; and three minutes the minimum time tor auy single mile of that distance. A person, provided with a stop watch was employed lo regulate the speed. It happened lhat at the lime of the accident this individual was ab sent from his post in consequence of a hurt he had receiv ed a short time before.

The address says, As the engineers had become so well regulated in their time, il was deemed unnecessary io procure ano tier to fill this temporary agency. Hid this officer been at his post, the first subject ot inquiry, to wit the rale al which the cars were running, would have been attended with no difficulty. From tilt excitement naturally produced by the disaster, it has been found impracticable to obtain accurate information on this subject. The Committee are led to the conclusion, however, thai a short time before the occurrence ot the accident, the speed of the engine had considerably exceeded the ra'e allowed, but that at the lime aud immediately before this was not the case. This opinion induced by the following facts.

There were two trains of cars attached to separate engines. Tbe accident happened to the last train. Tlie first engine is the least powerful on the line. The engiueer is positive thai so far from being io advance of, be was behind his tune. He moreover slates that from inadvertence his fire had gut down and his sieain was so low as to render it difficult to maintain his pro per speed ai mat point, as uie roaa mere ascends The committee are satisfied that tbo orders had not been materially violated as to the whole lime of running ihe distance.

Bui it appears that owing to some trifling derangement of the second engine, the engineer, aboul three miles before, had reduced his speed lo adjust it. After doing so, ue slates lhat to recover his proper station be increaeed his sieed, but not in his opinion exceeding his limited rale. In this he was probably mistaken. But before the accident occurred be had checked the engine by shutting off a considerable portion of the stoam, and is positive lhat he waa not then running faster than ihe train ia advance. This declaration is strongly corroborated by the fact, ihat one of the agents accompanying the line was a tlie top of ihe car which upset, 4jumpcd from it lo tbe ground without injury, when he discovered lhat it was going over.

From ihe place where be alighted lo thai where the car rested after the traiu was stopped is not quite 21 yards. Tbe accident has also beea attributed lo the heating of Ihe axle from friction fur want of od. It is understood ihat some of the passengers are under the impression lhal they saw smoke from ibis cause. This is clearly a mistake. The axles were examined at Spotuwood, (not 8 roi es distant by ibe agent whose duty it is to do so, and found perfectly cool and well supplied wiih ml.

The ap nearance of the fracture ia entirely inconsistent wnh idea, and the quantity of oil still adbvriog to both the journal and box is conclusive as that would have been eutiro Iv consumed by ine neat. "Cast iron wheels have beea entirely excluded from the passage cars uo this road. The axles have all beea procured from fcSooostoo tne most celebrated works in the cuunlrv, at Ihe exorbitant price of 125 per ton lo ensure Ihe quality of lha iron. They are mure than 50 per cent stronger than those used for the passage cars of the Liverpool and Manchester mad, and for still greater security the ends were all welded down before they were turned. Yet with all these precautions it appears by sn e.L I 1 .1 ixarainauon uie invs msi a latent oelecl ex i i sled in wnicn eaueen ine accraenu 1 tlrre was a flaw in leaving not mora than three eighths of the strength of the iron lo sustain the whole weight, but as tne delect waa uie juwimi n.

But the breaking of the axis would have been harmless at none of tbe passengers, in that ear received the slightest mjury. ji rcnuune vmj i sor ins injury el tbe other car." Aa aeeat is alwavs suiionrd al the brake of tha gaga car to kaep a constant watch upon all the other esus and lo apply the brake and instantly apprise ihe engineer if any accsdeat occurs.

CONFESSION OF CHARLES DAVIS. Made the UAofOetottr, 1633. la Vabruarv last I shtDDed on board the sloop Ajax; of ew York, 'then al Mobile. The captain's namewas mats' name L.

Snofford. There weie three men before the mast, and the cook, making in Il nn. ti in.n named Robert Sleeve, but ka w. h. nma of RnUrt WlllOU.

Another of hut I don remember his sirname. The cook was a Spaniard his name I also forget. In February last we sailed for Brassos de Santiago the cargo consisted of lumber taken in al Mobile. We arrived at Brassos twenty or twenty one days after remaining there two or three weens, wo i. 1..11..1 ,1 r.M.,hile I think the captain had the nroceeds of Ihe carso iu money.

The second day we were sea, we picked up a boat wilh two oars, and having it in board, we then had two boats, one on each r.i. What I am now going lo lell is told only on condition that it shall not operate against me, or go to my in Befbrs we left Brassos, Sleeve told me that the cap tain and ho had fallen out, but said at ine same urne lie uaaa. I'll LtsWSSn 111! SI anod heart vet this was be Jol aiul within to or three days sail of Mobile, Sleeve asked me would I undertake to denlrov the officers I 1 answered i wouiu nave lo do with it. Sleeve then said he would do it alone. On Tuesday I bad ibe mainsail down repairing the gaff, when Sleeve again said lo me, you bad hetler help me.

ine captain was at uus iun quarter deck, and the mate mending the gafu Sleeve then said watch me, and when I begin it do you come and lend uie a hand, for I am determined to go through il before sunset meaning the dual ruction ofthe captain and mate. About half past two in the afternoon Sleeve took up a handspike and laid il down again he then took a top mall, or large hammer, and struck the mate on the bead, who fell speechless. He spoke afterwards, but did not understand what he said. Bob, however, said, that the mate cried Oh have mercy a ma R.a. Kftnr sinking the male two or thrree times more, Bob'' then flew at the Captain, bnt whein ir him aiih tha hammer or a handspike I cannot say, bu I saw the blood on the handspike afterwards.

All this time I was by the mast I then went by the quarter deck, when bteeve said tou have got here have you He then asked me if I knew what ne would have done for me if I had sat still. I answered no, and he said be would have served me in the same way as the others. Charles, ihe cook, shipped at Brassos, was then in ihr cabin and jumped up and got a sun, but whether lo help ihe captain or Steeve I don't know, bin expect it was lo help Steeve. The cook then said, 'the captain is not dead, and hit him a blow on the head with a bar or hand Steeve then told me lo mend the gift, which I did. and then Charles, Sleeve and the cook threw the bodies overboard I can't say whether ihey were dead or not we then washed the blooJ off the sails and deck, and Steeve asked ifsny of us knew navigation, to which we all answered No.

Sleeve then said, I'll lake her where I want her, and stood in for the land. On Wednesday at 12 o'clock he look the sun and said that we were withio 12 miles of Pensacola. and then lacked ship and stood off until aboul 8 o'clock on Wednesday evening, and then stood in for the land aain. On Thursday he said we were near enough the land and sent me to look lor il. 1 went up and saw land ahead, and then ail hands went to work to get the boat over ihe side of the vessel, into which we nut nrovisions and water.

Steeve then went into the cabin and the men brought tin a chest of clohes aud some money, which Steeve said came from the captain's chest. The chest and money was put into the boat, and then all on board but myself wrnt below and wilh augers and axes scuttled the vessel, uul her head off" shore and lowered the sails. Steeve then went into the cabin and brought out a gun and a pistol, and called me out of the boat and told ine to shoot Charles, say ing "I have sailed with him before, and he will tell when he gels on shore." 1 said that him go on sh're aWSwavs TfietTTWd me lo fliool George, the cook; and insisted on it. and said I must. I then took the gun and shot George Steeve went up lo Charley, and said, You villain, I owe you a grudge this long lime," snd shot bim down.

George, the man whom 1 shot was no: hurt much, and Sleeve and I threw him and Charles ove board. Steeve and 1 theu left the sloop which had a loot or two oT water in her hold, and wentou snore ana remained all night on the beach. On Friday morning we star ed along tbe shore with the boat, and remained the bight next also on the beach. Ou Saturday, we again went along the siiors snd remained during the night on the beach. On Sunday morning we aw a pilot boat, and sleeve sal a uai we would go en board of her, and that I was to say nothing but lei him Sfieak.

When we got on board the pi lot boat we asked where ApaUichicola was, and were told it was twelve miles from us. We were then asked were we from St. Marks, and Sleeve replied yes. Steeve and I then went ou shore in our boat and got the things which we had left on the beach, at which ime Sleeve told me lhal if he thought I would ever mention auy thing of the circumstance, he would slioot me. He ihcn made me promise never to mention il, holding at the same time a pistol in his hand.

About nine or ten o'clock on Sunday morning we started in our iroat for Apalachicola, anil landed about a mile and a half from town. At three o'clock in the forenoon Sleeve left me in Ibe boat, and went to town, and returned about SOB down. We then went for the town with the boat and got there jusl after lark, and laid all nigh: in the boat. Ia the morning Steeve went to look for a boarding bouse and returned a bout eight o'clock, and immediately after he had got hack an officer came and took bo lit of us and all the things before the magistrate, who asked where we were from, Steeve said from Mobile, and after an examination we were discharged about eleven o'clock; the same day the Collector of the Port took us again and counted over the money, made il 623 dollar il was all in silver, and some Spanish dollars hammered, and some Mexican, and after the Col lector had examined us we were again discharged with the property. Tbe boat was then sold for 12, and we took passage in a steamboat for Columbus.

We arrived there in 5 days, and then took s'age and went to Savannah, aud went to a boarding house, and staid there one niht, and then went next morning on board of a sloop for New York, Capt. Pitcher the silver waich taken from me, was given me by Steeve io Savannah the gold watch handed in the officer by Mr. Smithen, 1 boufit from the mate of ihe Ajax the spy glass was given me also in Savannah by Sleeve, also tbe clothes found in my chesi al Mrs. Taylor's. Steeve belungs ij Norfolk, in Virginia, is between 23 ami S4 years of age, 5 feet 10 or 11 inches high, sandy hair and whiskers, very old face.

I forgot to mention there was a passenger on board ihe Ajax, ho was also killed, and thrown overboard the cloak found at Mrs. Smiihen's was his, also some of his shirts. I think the coals also were the uassensers Steeve took the mate's cloihrs I had ef United States money I wo bills of $100 eacn. ana ten sou Dills, which I ich in my trunk Ihe Friday morning I left Mrs. Taylor's house they were iu a long pocket book.

We trust that the subscribers to our Daily, Semi weekly, snd Weekly print, will find in the improved condition ofthe Globe aa contemplated, after 1st of December next, a motive to encourage ut by extending the circulation ofthe old, and obtaing sub. scriiitions for the new undertaking.

In the sheet (which will be found at the several Port Offices at which wo have subscribers is presented a specimen of the paper and typography, through wbich, afler the meeting of the next Congress, we propose lo mend the appearanco of the Globe.

No other newsiaper in ihe United Stales will be found, after that period lo stir pass, and very few lo equal, the beauty of (is mechanical execution; and, wetruM.by peculiar care and increased industry, to il more worthy than it has hitherto been, in other respects, of the extensive and munificent subscriptions which has so enlarged its dimensions and improved its texture. To the liberal patrons of ihe Globe, who have followed ft with their favor from afeeb'e semi weekly, printed at a job press, until it has become handsomely established, in an excellent office, ojittoun, with presses, types and "all appliancrs to booi," we trust ihe unremitting efforts which we have made, as our gradually increasing meafis have permitted, lo render it worthy of the encouragement ihey have afforded, will be taken as proof lhal we are not wanting in grealful fed. ing fur pan support, nor in the wpirit to deserve and win it, for lite future, however we may fail in the requisite a bility. The present en'argsd and improved publication, it will he observed by the prospeciui. annexed, will be given lo subscribers, afier ihe 1st of D.

cember, on ihe same terms on which the Globe has hitherto been furnished to subscribers. In addition to the Daily and Semi Weekly ami Wetk. ly Globe, heretofore issued, it will be observed, that propose lo publish a Congreuional Globe," exclusively devoted lo the proceedings and debates in Congress This paper will be printed al the close of every week, during the session of Congress, and will contain, in regular series, a succinct and clear account of the proceedings of day, together with a brief and condensed report of the speeches made oa every topic brought under discussion. In preparing these outlines, it is our purpose to employ able and industrious Reporters, ho will lake Lloyd's" Report of Debates of Congress of 1789. as a sample for imitation and will also avail themselves, whenever il is permitted, of ihe notes ofthe speakers themselves, to prepare the sketches.

We will also endeavor, if the space will allow to give, in the Congressional Globe, the more elaborate and 6n ished orations upon question of great moment, as prepared bv members themselves, for ihe public. We hofie to be able lo effect this, by using brevier type, and the greatly increased page now presented. In affording this weekly paper at the rate of one dollar, for all the numbers printed during the session, we may boast oi affording the most important information, at the cheapest possible price, anil we look for a reimbursement for our labor and trouble, in a very minute profit, upon a very extensive sale and circulation of the numbers. That Ibe subscription should be paid in advance, is therefore, rendered in dispensable, and we throw ourselves upon ihe generosity of our friends, and ask the favor of tbem lo volunteer their exertions to favor our object and we especially solicit from the EJitors wilh whom we exchange, a gratuitous insertion ofihis notice, together with Ihe annexed terms.

Atrocious Mvbdeb.

The follow in particulars ara derived from a highly responsible source. A lespecia ble, but poor mechanic, named Joseph SatalifT, aa Eng. 1 isli man, who lately arrived in this city from Lancasirr, was cruelly murdered at his residence, in Eighth street, below Christian, a few nights since. It appears lhat a philanthropic gentleman had given him permission to reside with his lamily, rent free, in the back part of as un fitiiished frame house. A great number of boards having been missed from the building, the tenant ascertained who wero the and informed the landlord.

Returning home on Monday evening, iho 4lh inst. after a fruitless attempt to collect money, he told his wife thai" he had collected but 6ve cents, and requested her iu sums uuroi coaee ana some oread, lu order lhal they might make out a meal. After the wife had return. ed, white the coffee was on the fire, and the father sitting before it, with an infant child upon his knee, two persons presented themselves st the door, and inquired ifSatahtf, the painter, was in. On being answered in tne affirmative, they rushed in, and commenced beating him wiih a club and a wheelbarrow strap, io the most unmerciful manner.

The wife seixed ihe infant child, and in ih fright ot the moment, rushed out ore wrnna Annr al ll urou an unnnisiied room into Ihe cellar. Her cries and those ofthe child were heard by the neighbors who hastened to their assistance. The ruffians immediately fled, and the injured man was taken to the hospital, where he died of his wounds a few days after. He was buried, through tlie ai.f of some of his neighbors, in a respectable manner an Sunday ast. His widow and des liiute children are now in extreme need, and, for the present, remain at tbe house of a neighbor, at the south east corner ofChristian and Eighth st.
