Sam PATcH's LAST JUMP. This celebrated
jumper announced to the inhabitants of Roch-
ester and vicinity, that he would take his b" last
jump" from the Genesee Falls in that village,
on the Goth inst. The annunciation proved but
too true, and in more unlimited sense than he
probably intended. After the people had COL
lected, when he came out, it was found that he
was considerably iatOaicatedi and attempts
were made to persuade him not to risk the haz-
ardous enterprise. But screen thousand persons
had assembled to witness the leap, and he would
not disappoint them. The height of the Falls
is 100 feet, and platform was erected 25 feet
higher, making the whole descent 1875 feet from
which he leapt. The first third part of the dis.
lance he went as usual, but he appeared then
to lose his balance, and threw his arms from his
body, and, striking the water oblquely, sunk to
rise no more The feelings of the multitude,
assembled on the banks Of the river, can better
be imagined than described. Those who have
been accessory to this wanton destruction Of
human life, by encouraging an attempt so full
Of danger, must reconcile il to their consciences
rs they may. II is said that before Patch Jump
cd, he gave directions that, in case of his death
whatever money might be contributed on the
occasion, should DO sent to his mother.

FOREIGN NEWS

The intelligence from the late seat of war in
Europe is of character consolatory to every
friend OF the welfare of mankind, and of the
amelioration of the condition of the human race.
The first and most important fact is, that peace
Is definitively concluded, and an end is put, for
The present, to the effuson of human blood.
connected with this are other circumstances
which, though secondary, are only secondary,
to that most important event The Sultan, find
ing himself unable to oppose any resistance to
the progress of the victorious Russians, and,
alarmed for the safety of his throne, and even
OF his life, submitted to such terms as might be
dictated to him, and threw himself entirely on
the magnanimity of the Emperor Nicholas. It
is gratifying to find that the power, thus thrown
INTO the hands of the Russians, has been used
with moderation, and that the pledges. piven
ny their Emperor at the commencement of the
war, have been redeemed. The Turkish EN-
plre is restored without ACKNOWLEDGMENT. with
the exception of Greece, which had already ac-
CURED its own independence, and of a few
trlfilng places in Asia, which are received as
part of the indemnity to be paid by Turkey.
Yet there are stipulations in the Treaty, which
must necessarily, have an important influence
on the restoration of civilization and the arts.
to that once highly favored, and still beautiful
and fertile country. The establishment of the
independence of Greece on a secure and per-
manent basis, the freedom to the achote aoorld
of The navigation Of tie Black Sea, and the Sc.
curity OF Russian subjects in all parts of the OF
toman dominons, will do much toward the
speedy renovation of that empire, and toward
the dIspelllng of the c.ouds ofignorance, preiu-
dice, and superstition, which have so long over
Swallowed it. Through the sources thus opened
to them, food of light viii be poured in upon
the inhabitants, such as will shew them their
present degraded state, and indicate the means
OF lettering their condition. Light and know
ledge tend always to the overthrow of despot.
ism; and the Sultan will find, that to maintain
his authority, it is necessary to conform to the
advances and improvements of the age. The
charm which belief in the invincibility of his
power had created, is broken, and he must now
rely, for the continued support of his subjects,
on the means which he uses for promoting their
welfare, and lettering their condition.
To our citizens, the trade of Greece and the
Black Sea will open new field for commercial
of which, we doubt not, they will
early and proftaby avail themselves.

nnaps equal to any potato in the country, and
ior eating IN the latter part of the winter and
spring, is very excellent, and by some is prefer

the Black Rusticoat to any other potato for the

kinds"
We concur in opinion with our friend with re-
gard to the good qualities of the Rusticoat !; but
think the Mercer, even at this time of the year
little, IT any, its inferior for the table, and, as
its produce is said to be more abundant than
tnat OF the other kinds mentioned above, VIC
should be inclined to give the Mercer potato
Inc preference for cultivation. The Red.eyed
potato is good, but not pre- eminent

and whenever it is brought into the market,

prohtabe article to the cultivators The " Mer-
Ger Potato" is but little known in this part of
the country. and has never been offered in our
market. 1t is new variety, recently introduce

above any other kind. In Philadelphia, for
some time after it was known in that market,

Considering its goodness for eating, and its
prolific qualities, we think it will soon super

is possible, as will be seen from the following
additional extract from the last Farmer:
Bnt the ne Plus ultra of ali possible pota-
toes-the kind which caps the pinnacle of per-
fection, and comes as near the double superla-
tive OF the Greeks as any eminent edible can
arrive at, we have received from a gentleman
cutlvator In Essex County, who prohibits the
mention of his name. These are the fourth
year from seed, obtained from potato apples or
balls, and we do not know whether they have
been named. though it appears to US they merit
name above that of any other variety of their
species. They are ripe early in the season,

these fine roots for sale, being the whole of the
last years crop, and the only potatoes of their
kind in existence"
Notwithstanding this high recommendation,
we have some doubts whether, all things con-
sidered, this kind will be found preferable to
the varieties above named, though we wish
they might. We hope some of our intelligent
farmers may give each of the kinds fair trial,
and favor the public with the result of their ex-
periments.

VIRGINIA CONVENTION. The question of
representation, still remains undecided in the
Virginia convention, although some votes have
been taken which serve to indicate the strength
of parties as, at present, constituted. The two
great parties are, the western or upland who
are in favor of basing representation on white
population exclusively, and the eastern or low
land, who contend for basng it on property, or
on population, reckoning FIVE slaves equal to
three whites. as in the representation in Con-
gress. The former predominant in the conven.
ton, but portion of them, residing in the mid
land counties are for concliating the various
conflicting interests by compromise, adopting
a mixed basis of free population and taxation
combined for one or both branches Of the Leg
islature Among these are Ex-President Mad
ison and Chief Justice Marshall, who are will
ling to adopt the mixed basis in both houses,
and Ex-President Monroe, who will vote for
the mixed basis for the Senate, but opposes its
adoption for the lower house. On the 14th
inst, the vote was taken in committee of the
whole, on the motion to amend the report of
the legislative committee, by striking out the
word /" exclusively" after "white population"
and inserting, instead thereof, the words, " and
taxation combined" The ayes were AZ, noes
AZ, and the Chairman decided the question in
the negative by the casting vote; so the COM
pound basis was rejected. One member who
would have voted in the negative was absent
motion was Immediately made to amend by
substituting what is called the federal basis
reckoning slaves equal to three fifths as many
white inhabitants, for the lower house. After a
full and animated debate this proposition was
rejected or the 10th by vote of 40 to AZ.
Before the vote was taken, John Randolph
made one of his wild, discursve, and sarcastic
speeches, in favor of the black basis The
white population represented by the 40 votes,
is 1854, while that represented by the AZ, is
only 1000. The excitement is every day
increasing, the western delegation evince an
increased frmness and determination TO ACQUIRE
their just rights, while the eastern delegates.
long accustomed to rule, are daily losing con-
fdence and temper.

the hind wheels got off The road where the bank
was about Is feet high; the king belt came out
and the hind wheels and body went down the
bank, turning over twice in the fall, till it was
brought up by fence and some trees. Wha,
is very remarkable is, that though there were
eight passengers inside. none Of them were in.
jured beyond bruises The body and top Of the
stage were completely destroyed. The two
forward wheels and the horses were left in the
