THE KELP GATHERER. The stranger who wanders along the terrific masses of crag that overhang the gre ana loaming waters 01 we Atlantic, on tire western coasts of Ireland, feels a melan choly interest, excited in his mind, as be turns aside (n the more impressive rrandeura of the scene, end gazes on fie small stone heapa that are scattered over be moss on which he treads. They are the graves cf the nameless few whose bodies have been from time to tirneeiected from tbaboaom of the ocean, and cast npoo those lonely crags to startle the early fishennau wiih ihir shantlv and disfigured bulk. Here they meet, at ored to procures subsistence for her boy and herself, by fathering the keln which waa thrown upon the crags and which was burned the purpose of manufacturing soap from iu ashes while tbe youth employed his yut unformed strength in tilling the small garden, that was confined bv a auick set hedge, at their cottage side. They were fondly aiched and toiled incessantly to obtain the means of comfort, rather for each other than for themselves but.

with all their exertions, fortune left them in the rearward of her favor: The mother beheld with a mother's agony, the youthful limbs and features of her bov exhibit the sickiy effects of habitual priva tion, and habitual toil while the son mourned to see the feebleness of a'premature old age begin to steal upon the health and vigor of his parent. In these difficulties, a prospect of certain advantage and probable good fortune, induced the young man to leave his mother and his native country lor some years The distresses and disturbances which agitated that unhappy land, pressed so heavily upon the fortunes of many lamitiea ot the middle, aa wen as ino lonor that great numbers were found to embrace the opportunity nfimnmvement. which the colonization of the new world hold out for their advantage. Among those who emigrated, waa tbe family under whom the Keardois held their little cottage; and with them it was, that the young man determined to by his fortune in a happi tt rMinn Havirur arranged their affairs so as to se cure hia widowed parent against absolute poverty, they separated with many tears, the mother blessing her son aa she committed him to the guaidianship of Piov iWuv and the sun rjledeine himself to return to her assistance so soon aa he bad obtained the means of pro miA.na har the RomfuftS IMCesSSrV lO bOT otd age.

The blessings of tha young Tobias fell upon the work of hia t.ul. and hia industry, because well directed, was Araductive. even beyond his expectations. Instead ot lingering, like many of hia fellow exiles, in tha sea port towno. where they were detained by idleness, and that pen mouthed lolly, which persuades men that fortune may be found without tha pain of seeking.

Young Reardon proceeded at once into the new settlement, where human industry is one of the moat valuable and mnunnditiea. In a tittle time, he was enabled to remit a considerable portion of his earnings to his pour mother, and continued irora ume io mw, uj ukiwc comfort, until at length the abun dance of hia prosperity was such, aa to enahle him to relinquish tha pursuit of gain, and to fulfil tbe promise be bad made at parting. Ha AiA nnt mturu alone. With the full approbation of the poor widow, he had joined hia fate with that of a young person in iMsauni u. dispositions were in every way aiming ua and who only excelled him in iheaupenor ease and com fnM hi.

oircumstaneea. Previous to his return, he wrote to the poor widow, to inform her, that in less than two months from that time, with the blessing of Providence, her daughter in law. her two grand children and her son would meet beneath the roof ot ber ancient dwelling. Fancy, if you can, the anxiety with which the poor out for the long expected time. The as sistance which the affectionate exile bad been able to afford her, was auch as to raise ber to a state of rainpara her neighborhood, and to render her ianandent nf the hard and servile toil by which she had been accustomed to gain a livelihood.

Her cottage was wholly changed in iu appearance, and had the honor of being frequently selected for a nignt'a lodging by landlord's spent, and other great men, who passed through that lonely district. A lew flowers sprang up in her sally fringed garden, which were not the less ohariahod. that the seeds from which they transmitted from that emigrant's garden iu the other hemisphere. Her life up to the moment she received this joyous letter, had been calm and sadly happy. She looked forward with a serene feeling oi mingled hope and resignation, to the day of hereon return! and never once suffered tbe eagerness of aflec 1 a Laati.tn ah rss'aar A 1 1 sa tion to outstep ner ntmuue wiu, A.

She thought of Heaven, indeed, and prayed even mere fervently than before; but tbe burning fever tbat possessed her heart, showed that Us confidence waa qualified. In the hours of devotion, she often found her thoughts wandering, from that Being whose breath could still or trouble the surface of the ocean, far over the wide waters themselves, to meet the vessel tbat waa flying to ber with tbe tidings of bliss.

She shuddered as she went morn after morn, to the cliff he id, and cast her eyea on the graves of the shipwrecked voyagers, which were scattered along the turf mountain on which she trod. In the silence of tbe night, when a be endeavoured to drown her anxieties leep, imagination did but overact the part with which it had terrified ber waking. Stormy seas and adverse winds a ship straining against the blast, her deck covered with pate and affrighted faxes, among which she seemed to hnaf her son. and of hi family winds hiss tha ereekinAT yards and waves tossing ar1l heads aloft, and roaring for their prey. Such were the that beset the bed ot the tanging motherj and made the night ghastly to her mf JL When ahe lay awake, the ruetliug ot a and dea wind among he green boughs at her window erect, in ber bed nor would ahe again return to rest until she had opened the litiie rw Kgmiw iwia her hand th.t her alarm waa occasioned motions.

The fishermen, after h.rt Hra nn their canoes at evening were care ful, on their way homeward. todrop tn at the wsJovv Roardon's door, aDd let her know what vessels had entered Uie neighboring river in the cooc of the day, or had appeared ia tbe offing.

She was constantly cheered with the essnrance that fairer weather tor a homeward bound abip or more likely to continue, was never known before. Still, nevertheless, the poor woman's bean was not at peace, and the daya and iighta lagged along with unaccustomed heaviness. One night in particular, towards tha end of tbe second month, appeared to linger so very strangely, that the widow tnougat tne morning would never dawn. An unusual darkness seemed to brood over the world and aha lav awake, casing with longing eyea toward tbe lit tle window through which the sun's earliest rays were used to greet ber in ber waking. On a audden ahe beard voices outside tbe window.

XUva to the slightest circumstance tbat waa unusual, ahe arose, all dark ae it waa. threw on ber simple dress in haste, and groped her way to tbe front door of the at welling. She recognised the voice of a friendly neigh, bnnr. and onexksd the door, supposing that he might have some interesting intelligence to communicate, bbe food newt!

The obscurity which envelopes the history of those unhappy strangers affords a subject to ihe speculative traveller, on which he may; give free ploy to the wings of his imagination. Few. indeed, can pass these desert ed aennlehtm without endeavoring for a moment to pen etrate in fancy the darkness which enshrouds the fate of their mouldering tenants, without beholding the pm Sreas of tbe ruin that struck from beneath the voyager ml Dm firm and Infts fabric to which he had confident ly trusted bis exiateuce, ithout hearing the shrieks of the despairing crew, and the stern and horrid burst of tha roused up ocean, as it dtU tbe last stroke upon the groaning timbers of the wreck, and scatte ed tbe whole pile fax and wide, in countless atoms, upon the boiling surface of the deep. And again, without turning in ihnnvht tn iha far awav homes, at which the tale ot the wanderers waa never told to the pale young widow that dreamed herself still a wife, lived on, fiom morn to morn, in the fever of a vain suspense to the be) plena namnt Uialatill honed for the offices of filial kindness from the hand that was now mouldering in a distant grave and to the social fireside, over whose evening pas times the long silenceof anabsen: friend had thrown a gloom, that toe certainty oi wo or giaum as comu. uuv er remove.

Among those nameless tombs, with'n the space of the last tew years, the widow of a fisherman, named Rear don, was observed to spend a great ponton oi ner time. Her husband had died voung. perishing in a sudden storm, which swept his canoe from tbe coast aide into the waste of sea beyond it and bis wife was left to inhabit a small cottage near tbe crags, and to support, by tha labor of her hands, an onlv child, who was destined to inherit little more than the blessings, the virtue and the affections of his Da rent. The poor widow endeav I.nrd saw lint mv heart was alravine to the world a gain, and he has struck me for tbe happintss of both. Lar me hear you say that you are satisfied i can see your heart still, and that is dearer to me than your per son.

Again he folded hi dark parent to his bosom and wept aloud, while his wile retiring softly to a distance, hid his funs in her cloak. Her chil dren clung with fear and anxiety to her side, and gazed with affrighted faces upon the afflicted mother aou son.

But thev were not toreott n. After she had repeated ly embraced her recovered child, the good widow remembered her guests. She extended her arms towards that part of tbe room at which she beard the throbs and moamnss of the younger mother. that my aaugn ters voice? she asked 'place ber id my arms. Richard.

1 he improvements wnicn modern practitioners have made in this science, render this disease, which waa once held to be incurable, now comparatively easy of removal. The aurgeon perceiv ed at ouce by tne condition ot tbe eyes, mat, oy tne ab straction or the injured lens, he could restore sight to the aflirted widow. Unwilling, however, to excite her hopea too suddenly or pretrial urely he began by asking her whether, for a Ch inee ot recovering the use ot her eyes, she would submit to a l.tile pain The poor woman replied, that if he thought he could once more enable her to bohold her child and bis children, she would be content to undergo any pain which would not endanger ber ext tence. retlied her visitor. "I may inform you.

that I have the strongest reasons to believe that 1 1 an restore you to sight, provided you sgrwe io place your selt'at my disposal for a few daya. 1 vill provide you wiih an apartment in my houe, and your family shall know it unt.l the cure is effected." The widow consented, and on that very evening the operation was the pain was slight, ana was endured by tho pulient without murmur. For a few days after, the surgeon ins sted on her wearing a covering over ber eyes, uutul wouaus wmcn re had found it necessary to inflict, had been perfectly healed. One morning, after he had felt her pulse and made the necessary inquiries, he said, while na held the hand of the widow 1 think we may now venture with aafety to remove the covering. Compose yourself now, my good old friend, and suppre all emotion Trepan your heart for the reception of a great happiness." The poor woman ciasped her hands firmly together, and moved her lips as if in prayer.

At 'be same moment the covering fell from her brow, and the burst in a joyous flood upon her soul. She sat for an instant bewildered and incapable of viewing any otjict with distinctness. The tint on which baTeyes reposed was tbe figure of a yoong man bending his gaze with an intense and ecstatic fondness upon hers, and with his arms outstretched aa if to anticipate the recognition. The face, though changed and sunburnt ince she bad known it, was still familiar to ber. She started from her seat with a wild cry of joy.

and cast herself upon the bosom of her son. surgeon, who thought tbat the consciousness ot a stranger's pretence might impose a restraint upon the feelinga of the patient and her friends, retired into a distant cor ner, where he beheld, not without tears, the scene ol happiness which he had been made instrumental in conlerrlnz.

If it had happened only oneday one hour after your arrival but the will ol heaven be done perhaps even this moment, when we think ourselves most miserable. He is preparing for ua some hidden blessing." Once more the pious idow was correct in her con jecture. It is true that day, which all hoped should be a day of rapture, was spent by the re united family in tears and mourning. But rrovidenct did not intend that creatures who had served him so faithfully, should be visited with more than a temporary sorrow, tor a slight and unaccustomed tranogressiou. 1 he news ot the widow misfortune spread rapidly through the country, and excited universal sympathy for few fuse their commiseration to a fellow creature's sorrow even of those who would accord a tardy ad measured sympathy to his good fortune.

Among those who beard with real pay the story of their distress, was a surgeon who resided in tbe neighborhood, and who felt alt that enthuliastic devotion to his art. which its hign importance to the welfare of mankind was calculated to excite in a arnerous mind. This gen tleman look an early opportunity of visiting the old widow when ahe waa alone in the cottage, i be simplicity with which she told her story, and the entire resignation which she expressed, interested and touched construed as repealed, or in any way modified or affec ted by those amendments. The old Charter expressly states, tbat appointmen a shall be made by a majority of the whole Common Council, and tha necessary mode waa by joint ballot. This provision, and the usage under it.

must still subsist, because the amendments say nothing on the subject, and therefore the feature of tbe old charter can neither be repealed, modified nor af fected by those amendments. The two boards can have no power, aa separate houses, not given in the instrument which constitutes them separate houses. Their power as two boards is there expressly limited to legislation, and not a word is aaid of appointments to of fice. Now, to turn the Daily Advertiser's own argument against itself, we contend that, if the amendmen's contain no such authority, it is manifest thoy have no power to meet and act in that manner (on the subject of appointments because a legislative body appointed by, and acting under a written constitution, cannot in the nature of things, exercise any powers, except such as are given to tbem by that constitution. A reference to the reports of the proceedings of the con vention which framed the amendments, will show, that this vexed question, whether appointments should be made in convention, or by joint ballot, was a good deal discussed in the sittings of that body.

At one Ume it was proposed that the appointments should be vested in the Board of Assistants at another that it should not be vested in either the Mayor, Aldermen or A sistants. but that it should be distributed between the Mayor, the Common Council, and the beads of tbe different departments of the City Government and an amendment waa afterwards adopted, requiring appoint' menta to office to be made by the Common Council iu joint ballot. This whole section waa finally expunged, on motion of Mr. Doer, who wished the matter to be left to the legislature. Tbe legislattoe passed the amendments, without any aJtssAxtioa or asiaiuoa affect ing this question, and consequently the appointing power is to be exercised by tbe Common Council, in joint ballot, as before Ihe adoption of the Amendments, for nothing in those amendments contained can, by fair interpretation, be construed as vesting tbe power of sp puintroent in the two boards Free Trade Meeting.

Tbe owner was about starting for this Mr. Niblo, aa will be seen by his advertisement, has established a sociable to run between the City Hotel and his Garden. This ia by far the handsomest and most commodious Broadway coach yet produced.

In general appearance, it is not very different from Brower's Omnibus, but much superior. The doors open at the sides, which allows of a person stepping from the aide walk into the carriage, and tbe body is bung so low, tbat there is need of but a single step.

It te a nsat, and aa tt ia intended to ran in the evening, will be a great accommodation to the inhabitants of tbe lower part of tbe city, and strangers, wishing to visit Niblo's delightful garden. Mr. Niblo, we believe, was tbe original proprietor in this city of the sort of carriages which havo of late been so extensively introduced among us, under the names of Broadway and Greenwich Stages. As long ago aa 1821, he ran a sociable of tbe kind. which was drawn by four very fine bones.

The little respect which his driver paid to the chains then extend ed across Broadway in front of some of Ihe churches, occasioned considerable conversation, and we believe. gave rise to a prosecution of the proprietor. He hsd, at the time, a pair of leaders, of which he used to boast, that they would break through any chain tbe church might choose to put up, if not larger than that which was once extended across the Narrows to defend the Harbour from tbe British fleet. Tbe horses, attached to the Lady Clinton," (the name of bia present beautiful coach) seem able to do nearly as mucb. Among the beautiful collection of flowers in Mr.

We find tbe following article on tbe subject of the French claims, in tbe last Richmond Enquirer: Later accounts have been received from France.

This waa an action brought by the plaintiffs to recover trom the defendants the amount of a policy of insurance effected in the year 1830, on certain good shipped in Hrier tvalharinn from Havana for NeW VOtk It appeared, that in this city the plaintiffs carried on 1 1 business under tne nrm oi uarcn na nnitar tha Aim nf Imu Co. In 1830 they effec ted a policy of insurance with the defendants to the a mountof 950,000. with another Insurance Company to the amount of fW.OOO more, upon goods to be ship ped from Havana to this city, on board American ves The plaintiffs shipped on the 8th August a part of the merchandise so insured, nn rwmrd the hnir Katharine, of hich Oliver Mayo was owner and master. On the 16th of the same month the brig waa wrecked and abandoned near the Fryingpan Shoals. The amount of property alleged by the plaintiffs to beon board was about 325,000 of which 12,000 was said to be in specie, and S13.000 in sugars ana se ernes.

The ground on which the defendants refused to pay the amount of the insurance was. thut the claim was founded in fraud, inasmuch that (as they allege) thespe eviss uroi nnt nn hiam fhahriaT. nn kaaksaif tha nlaintitfw the DolicY of Iasnrfliice w.a wuiiwt vi mv nrtiinavl ann ttlwik tKA HrXTIMlrV Ol tOt?

One ot the persons empioyeu in hoxea to lall removing ajaic, from his arma in consequence of its weight on the wharf, along aideot the boat, wnicn waiieu wi.j it to the brig the box in falling struck against another box.

and was in consequence injured so that a part of one of the nags was protruded outside the lid. Three witness who were present testified that they saw specie in the bag so obtruded in consequence of the open texture of the peculiar kind of bags in which it had been stowed fourth witness who waa on board the brig when the boat got along side, te.tified that he si the boxes hoisted in. and observed that one appeared to have been recently dimaged hy a fall or some such violence, and was immediately repaired The vessel proceeded on her voyage the same day and went out a dis ance of 40 or 50 miles. On the 12th the vessel bad entered the Guff Stream, and on tbe morning of the 15th the Captain discovered that she was in very imminent danger, having got to the west of the Stream and near to the Frying Pan Shoals, an attempt was made to put her off, but the current was so strong that It failed. It was then resolved to head south, but a storm came on suddenly and the brig was soon reduced to a mere wreck.

Her masts and spars were broken and she began to fill rapidly. Tbe rigging which held the masta was cut away, so aa to permit thom tn fall overboard and all hands went to the pumps; they remained at this work until about 8 o'clock, when it was resolved to abandon the wreck, as no vessel appeared in sight, and it appeared almost certain that she would strike on the shoals or sink. At this period the Captain ordered the mate to aave the specie, the latter went towards the run for that purpose, but returned saying that it was impossible, in consequence of the quautity of water in the vessel the captain desired him to make another essay which he did. but with no better success than before, and the Capt. biro self having examined the premises, it was decided that to make any further attempt would be entirely useless.

The long boat waa then removed from on board by breaking away the bulwarks and tbe crew went on board ber. Tbe persons who went in the long boat testified ihst there were no boxes or oiher packages saved from the brig, except the Captain's chest and some small parcel Tbey also testified that they did not see any exchange or alteration of boxes containing specie, or other property, while tbey were on board. Alter the crew had got into the long boat, they were tuaed about amidat the break ami nna man was drowned. In the afternoon they landed on Bald Head Island, and proceeded to the light house, and informed tbePdou of their disaster; and at the same time telling them that the specie was on board. The Pilots said it would he impracticable to make any ova the wreck that eveuins.

but that they would endeavor lo do so on tbe next morning The Captain and mate told the Pilots that it waa even then too late to attempt to save the vessel, as she must have sunk two hours alter they had left her. Next morning (the I8th) the Captain and crew proceeded lo Smilhvilie, lo m.ta usual nrott st before a Notary public, and, ol lhir passage hailed the bng New Hanover, bound to New York, and informed the Captain of the loss of the sted him lo put into Smilhvilie for Capt. Mavo was advised by the Notary at Smilhvilie to go on to New York in the Hanover if he believed that the bng had sunk, and with this advice the Captain and Immedialelv after tbe arrival in New York, the plaintiffs notified tbe Insurance Company of the Um. and deraanuea tne amuuut uuureu. On behalf of the defence it was admitted that tbe crew of the Catharine had arnved at the lignt bouse, neo Head Island, the evening oi the I7tb, and informed certain pilots, Daniels and others, that the wreck had takeM place.

These piloU testified that tbe Captain and Male told them that the bng must have sunk next moruing, Daniels and others went out in an open boat to seek the wreck, but returned without discovering ber ou th 19th they again proceeded in search, with the like success on the stlst tbey again went out and discovered the wreck, ascertaining at the same time that it would k. low her on to the beach on the i'M they went out in two schooners, called the Sally Anne and the Friendship, and examined her condition, under the hope of being able to get out the specie, but without success on tbe 24ihibey went out aain but could nut find the wreck on the 25th. 26th and S7th they again went on the search, and succeeding in discovering ber near Little River on the 29tU and 30ih diey succeeded in towing her on tbe txach. On tbe 1st of September a Mr. Cassidy, a abip Carpenter, set out from Smilhvilie to visit the wreck, with view ol" getting some part of her copper sheathing in fxamiuimr her.

he was interrupted by Daniels and the other persous un board tbe Sally Ann and the General Jackson but it was finally agreed that all should share equally in the uett proceeds ol the wreck. AHer this arrangement, Mr. endeavored to ascertain what part of the veasel the specie lay in. and after some time discovered the position of certain boxei simdar to those described. After mucb dirhcuity, negro waa prevailed on to dive down and bring up the boxes.

By considerable exertions the four boxes were raised to the deck, one of them was opened on the deck and found to contain old types shot instead ot specie. On consulting some friends Mr. Casaidy resolved to bring the lour boxes on to the Bank at tlming ton. N. C.

where they were all opened, and found to contain type and shot. Tbe boxes were removed from Wilmington to New York, and the Insurance Company refused to pay tbe amount claimed on the ground that the type had been shipped ins teed ot" specie with a view of wrecking the vea el and defrauding tbe cotnpa ns in the amount ssid to be shipped. It w.s also testi fied that the mate had stated to the pilots that tbe specie waa in a particular location, which was afterwards tn be incorrect. Evidence was produced to show. in addition, tbat the wreck was first seen in a part of the stream out of her regulur route from Havana to INsw York, although her lug book, in the band writing of the mata run la men the nr off res ol tne otamary routs.

In explanation of the latter testimony, tbe plaintiff produced ship masters who testified that they very Ire nnantlv fnnnd themselves to have been led astray in their reckoning in the Stream. It waa also huwn thai ihe wreck bad been drifting out of her cour. e. Tbe counsel on each side summed up at great length to the Jury. The Court delivered a very luminous charge.

His Honor the Chief Justice informed tha Jury that tbey had first to determine whether the specie wss shipped on board the Catharine by M. Arcoss. It Mr. A. had fraudulently substituted the type for specie.lbeir verdict should be for tbe defendants.

But he suggested to the Jury how very irr jrobable auch a thing was. Several witnesses entitled to fall confidence, teslifi that they saw the sliver in the broken box. after it had left Mr. Arcoss' possession; be besides would have lost hia labor, unless he conspired with tbe captain and mate to sink tbe ship whether there was a storm or not thus placing himself for life in the power of these persons, ano tor tne aum oi oix.uw nay. not tor naif that, lor assuredly the mate and captain would not self themselves to such a risk for a infle.

If the Jury believed that tbe type waa substituted for tbe silver, by some adroit tniet in Havana, tney ahould give a verdict for tne piaintin lor tbe amount ol the sugar and secars, and axainstthem for the specie. But here toodiiBuiil. ties lay: it was sworn that tbe boxes were discovered on the morning of their shipment in the noaition in which they were placed, and some of the sdver was seen from tbe broken box at tbe moment it left the land. If they believed the Captain fraudently exchanged tbe gold for type, and sunk the vessel wilfully to con ceal hia villany, a verdict should be given for the defendant. But bere too it waa exUemely difficult to come to tots conclusion.

All tne crew swore tbey nsv er saw any movement likely to induce such a imninm and certain it is. that if the captain practiced the fraud. he look no measures to secure bis unlawial gain, aa be brought no specie in tbe long boat. No acction could be brought against tbe Captain for barratry, as such a crime ran only be committed by a captain against bis owners, and in tbia case, Mr. Mayo was owner and captain.

If tbe Jury believed that tha tTm miu uKaif it tifawl rx. the lead after the wreck, tbey would then find a verdict for the plaintiff. But auch a course was not wi bout its difficulties also. The pilots swear tbey never soc eueu iu renting any poxes ueir several visits, and Mr. Cassidy wuh the other persons who Bka afT1 nam 1 I rl him.

swear tbe boxes they raised contained only tynes and shot. 1 Tbe Jury bad to weish wall tfca in their verdict in accordance. After an ab ence of about 4 the Jury rendered a general verdict for the plsiutiffs. ea Council for the plaintiff, Mexrs. Ogden, Jsy.

From the Philadelphia Daily Advertiser. Explosion. One of tbe pounding mills, be'oaging to the extensive manufactory of Mr. William Rogers, ol this city, and known generally throughout the United Slate, ss the Nitre Hall Mills, was blown up on Saturday, July 16th, at 10t o'clock, A. M.

Two of the men, Mc Aleer and Devitt were killed instantly. White was dreadfully burned, he lived 6 hours. Nulty was also very bad! burned, be lived 27 hours.
