about three leagses from this place, but in
consequence of capt. Salas, the Spanish naval
commander, and his second having both been
killed, while in the act of laying "a heavy brig
alongside, the fortune OF the day was changed
and the Spanish squadron retired with the
loss of schooner. The Dutch schooner
Belle Marguerite, which was pressed into the
service, received two "a pound shot in her
hull, between wind and water, and sunk in
glory, the people were saved, and got on
shore, with the exception uf three who re-
manned ON board one was killed in the action.

Son Of Mrai.-On Saturday, the 2lst inst.
the son of the late King OF Naples reported
himself to the Clerk of the Marine Court in
this city, as an incipient step towards naturali-
zation. 1t appears by the report that his
name is Charles Louis Napoleon Achle
Murdt that he was born ia Paris, and is 90
years of age; and in the column intended for
the expression Of the present allegiance of the
party, he is stated as " owing no allegiance
TO any prince, potentate, state or sovereignty
whatever"

this interesting and prepossessng citizen of the

when he shall have acquired IA country, that

will find in the ranks of ireemen more hap

| A series of resolutions that have been form
ed and agreed To in a meeting held at Cahaw
ba, Il few days since, for the purpose of consid-
ering the eXpediency and practicability ofunit-
ing the waters of the Tennessee with those of
the Mobile. 1t appears that the proposed
canal will extend from Okoa, branch of the
Tennessee,to Conasauga, Il branch ofihe Coosa,
a distance of miles and 2l4 yards. From a
speech by Mr.. BRENE before the meeting it
appears that the advantages tn Tennessee, and
Western Virginia, are expected TO be of CON
siderable magnitude by the opening of such a
canal. The utility, the practicability, aud the
means necessary for the undertaking, were
enlarged upon 10y Mr.. b. in very luminous
manner, and seem to offer sufficient ground
10 expect that their object may be accomplish
ed in very satisfactory manner, and afford
great advantages TO the commerce and agricul-
ture of the surrounding country.

since his return from Washington, in CONVEX
saton with several gentlemen, has, we under
stand, suggested
That Mr.. Calhoun was vet comparatively
young man ; that Mr.. Adams was considera
bly older; that Mr.. Adams would not, proba-
bly, hold a situation in the government under
Mr.. Calhoun, he being SD much youog,r than
Mr.. A.; that therefore, in the event of the e.
lection of MIR. Calhoun, at this time, the dis
iinguished abilities of Mr.. Adams would be
lost to the nation but that, il Mr.. Adams
should be elected, Mr. Calhoun would have no
objection TO take the Office of Secretary OF
State under him; and a, the end Of eight years
MIR. Calhoun might take Mr.. Adams place.
Not having heard the remarks ourselves we
DO not pretend tn give the words, but such,
we believe, To be the substance of them and
from the high authority from which these sug
gestlons come, such we have reason to con
ciude, was the course of policy agreed upor
AT Washington, tn be pursued by the friends
of those distinguished men.

One case of yellow fever, terminating in
death has occurred at the New York Quaran-
tine Ground. The subject was Joseph Silva,
who had for several years been employed in
unloading vessels at the Quarantine Ground.
He contracted the disease on board brig
which arrived a few days since from st Jago
de Cuba. Such case should excite no alarm.
Insulated cases occur, perhaps every year, in
almost every seaport in the Union.
