'! " s sc=:.s.s. . Capt C.. f.. Tester q the English discovery Snip Chanticleer, has been here, giving names to places known already for years by various yankee appellations. He must have been pretty busy, for he was engaged nearly two months in lodging about this island ii siiioiie. Cur diressf fysoiitude was agreeably relieved q few days ago by the appearance of a sail on the horizon. Every glass on board was put i9Tequi- sition and speculations and befs were freely ventared as to what the stranger might be. As she drew nearer her sIii;sIlsize induced many to think she might be the long boat of some foun- dered vessel, rigged up with tenn porary sails. Imagine our surprise, as well as pleasure, when the little schoon- CT Penguin, of sstonington, rounded to alongside of us, and reported q short passage from our dear country. Our brig (the Annaway) is not large, but she looks like line of battle ship along side of the little Penguin. She is to accompany us to the South. l will endeavor to give you full account of all our doings at the end of the pres ent season.--AiI well.

 ErtrGct of q letter. from c gentleman of Pen- syIuaaia, 10 las father in Paris, France. 1'I had long wished to see the man who filed the measure of his country's glory. Eager to notice every feature, not q motion escaped my observation. Indeed ] was pleased with his digaifed appearance, which informed me, that ! was in the presence of the hero of New Orleans. The portrait of General Jackson in the American Consuls house at Bordeaux; is but q poor like ness of the great man. It resembles more the cheyalier of the Mancha, than lit does Old Hickory; it is what our namesake calls "4ae mechanic peiYstatre." ," First, his complexion is not so dark, his chin IS not as long as the one represent ed in almost every engraving of the general. Second, his countenanee is pleasing and commanding, his features are nearly, and very much like the stat ue of Washington in the garden of < To-
 lteries, and although he is not SC $ en
 bon poiaat." yet his person is majestic and fine. His dress wasnot Of the dandy cut nor did it appear as if it came re- gently from the tailor. His black coat, somewhat worn, indicated that it had rubbed much against the chair. From the condition of bis toilette, ] was in- duced to believe that he was not as fond of starch as you are, my father.
 "Haying followed the President e. lect to the armory, l was neueh dilight-
 ed with the simplicity of the old sol Idier--the true republican. After ex- amlning very critically, 9 rife, which to ali appearance did not please him, 1 from its smallness, he was handed a musket, of a superior make, and rather above the common size, he with great satisfaction, cooked and snapped it sey- eral times, and took aim; 50 that l had
 the pleasure of seeing the old general 1 in firing position. From the manner
 in which the piece was handled, 1t was
 easily perceived that the hero was at home. He reminded me at the time Eof Goldsrnith's old soldier Ss swho shoul-
 dered his cRutch, and showed how fields
 were won.n During the generals ex-
 animation of the nusket, ] distinctly
 overheard the following words: An!
 this is the arm for action! we wish to
 do more than frighten the enemy! and immediately followed an anecdote, at
 which the President is noI slow."

town and to all who have occasion to

town and to all who have occasion to visit us on business or for pleasure.
 The furniture, belonging to Captain Edmondson, was partially saved, and, we understand, was insured, so that we presume lie will sustain no considera- |ble. loss except that resulting from the sudden interruption of his business, and the Arrangement of his plans. The fire, proceeding downwards, and unaid- ed by the slightest breeze, made but slow progress, and thus afforded consid- erable opportunity for removing the contents of the consuming edifice as well as of those adjacent.
 .ii'ihcre was a great want of water oIf the occasion, which, if 1t had been sup piled abundantly as soon as the flames were discovered, might have saved the building. We are sorry that we cannot add strong expressions of comlnendation for the activity, energy, and efficiency of our citizens generally. Some of them iabored with great zeal and great eff feet. But there was an evident want ofsystem, of regular subordination, and of well directed efforts. Too many were standing idle, either from want of inclination or from ignorance oi the proper mode to render themselves use ful. Many, however are entitled te great praise for their enterprising and bold perseverance in attempting to save the furniture and to protect the neighbor- ing buildings.
 Ne learn with pleasure, and We are sure the information will give pleasure to the community, that arrangements have been made for rebuilding the City Hotel in this town in style at least equal to that of the original plan. The work, we understand, will be commell- ed without delay, and prosecuted with ali possible despatch.-.Aash. Ban.

 ~ ASHvTELE, June I9.

NASHVILLE, June I9.
 Yesterday morning, 18th inst. about
 two o'clock, our town was alarmed by the breaking out of fire in the roof of that spacious and noble edi6ce, the Cry HorEL, situated on the North
 East side of the Public Square, belong ing to the Nashville Bank, and occu- Ipied by Capt. James Ednondson. This fextensive commodious, and elegant bnllding, the pride and ornament of our town, erected for the special accommo- ton of travellers and strangers, at an expense of no less than forty thousand dollars s"ssaas soon enyeioped in flames.
 and all it's cembustible parts were at length entirely consumed. Fortunate ly, the atmosphere was remarkably calm, and the destruction was confined
 to the Hotel in which the fire originated and to a nelghboring small log building. which was very properly pulled down
 to stop the progress of the flames.
 The fire is supposed to have been |occasioned by carelessness in some ser want who probably took a candle into
 the garret, and fell asleep without ex- tinguishing it. We have not heard of ! its being traced to any known fact, but
 from it's commencing in the roof, such is presumed to have been the cause.
 The building was uninsured, and we fear. unless the walls, as seem isapreb- able after enduring such intense heat. are fit to rebuild upon, that its place will not very soon be supplied. We
 are confident that another building. equally valuable, spacious, and well adapted to the purposes of an exten- sive hotel, will not again be erected.
 The late edifice indeed was not proba- bfy surpassed by any similar establish.
 naefit fls the " estern country, either as
 Tt regards size, elegance or conven- |ience. The loss ofasuch building is .
 very serious calamity, no! only to the
 proprietors, and occupants, but to the

 was then raining and the sea was run ming high, and every person drcnched through with water; in this situation the constitution of Miss Boag, the only lady l sassciigef, soon gave way. Iiiis ani- able young lady's flrnness of conduct at the first alarm of fire and during the
 whole dreadful scene, is worthy of the highest praise. To the divine will of her God she submitted without 8 mur- mur, and at II o'clock on Wednesday, in the boat, she died i'll the arms of her brother, thanking him in the most affec- tionate manner for his kindness, giving her blessing to US all. On the following day she was buried with tie Church ser vice, our situation not admitting of the corps being kept longer in the boat. We remained in the boats near the fire of the wreck, two days, and at } o'clock, P. M. on Thursday, were taken on board the brig Idas, of Liverpool, Nova Scotia, from Demerara, bound to Hali- fax, Captain JOSEPH BARNABY, who with his officers and crew treated us with every tindnessand attention. We remained on board the brig two days, when Sunday morning. May Both, fall- ing in with the brig Camilla, Capt. Ro- bert B. Esiies, WIS good enough to offer us passage to Boston, and received us on board his vessel.

7he murder of JNr. White erplainea The Salem Observer, gives the fola.- ing particulars of the confession oi aa, Joseph J. Knapp, Jr. Y
 Some months since, Joseph J. KKpann
 JF. who married the grand nieee'a IF f Capt. White, and the daughter of K. hflotsekeepeT, stated q hypothetical cass to a lawyer, and from him understoes that if Capt. White died intestate. b;s mother-in-law, as the solerepresentat;sss of Capt.

 In order to effect this object, Knapa proposed to his brother,John F. kpanlf to murder Capt. White. His brothpap,' hpp' replied that he would not do it himself but he knew who would; be could pet Richard Crowninshield, .Jr. k. Crowninshield, .jr. was employea. for that object, by John r. Knapp. # his brother's.request, and was to receive. we understand, Sl000 for accomplish. l ing inc object.
 On Friday, Sd April, J. J. Knapp, Jr. went into Captain White's chamber and took from the iron chest a will. (which he supposed to be Capt. Whites last will, carried it to Wenham, and kept 1t in his possession until he heard of Capt. W's death, and then destroyed it. On the same day he procured the will, he unbarred the window. by which GfowniDshield entered. ISnappTeturn- cd to Wenham the same day; and did not return to Salem again until until the snur- der was committed.
 The mardeTwas committed by Grown. inshield alone. lie alone was in the house. Ii waseflected by a lirk, (which has not been found as reported,) and by a bludgeon of hickory, with large head loaded with lead.
 The murder was committed about % minutes past i0 o'clock. Whilst the deed was doing J.T. Knapp was watching in Brown street, and t was him who Mrs. Bray saa. t was Crowninshield whom she saw ioin him, after the deed; whom Capt. Eray saw run down Howard street-unser the steps Of the Howard street Meeting house, the bludgeon was deposited; and there it has been found; Knapp's con. iession having lead to its discovery.
 The day after the murder J. ?. P Knapp and Crowninshield rode to Wenham. where J. J. Knapp, Jr. gave [. all the money lie then had, being l00 fiye-franc pieces-at which lime Crowninshield stated to him the man. her in which the deed was accomplish. ed.
 J. J. Knapp, Jr. acknowledges him, sell author of several infamous anony. nous letters, which have been sent to the Hon. Stephen White and the Com mittee of Vigilance, since the murder. We do not learn that K. duplicates any other individuals but K. Crowllils- shield, Jr. and his own brother.

Latest from S. Domsngo.-The edit ors of the New York Daily Advertiser have been favored by friend with the following intelligence from Port au Prince, dated 27th April, received by the Bunker Hill:

 7erceira.-The brig Charles arrived at the port of Boston, Jeff Cadiz on the 5th April, and s. Michael's on the 24th, at the latter place the Amerb can Consul came on board and handed Capt. Stetson the following :---ss A Re gency has been instituted at 1Terceiraa- President Marquis Palmella reported that commissions for privaieers would be issued. Three prizes I TEnglish, have been sent into St. Micllael's. Despatch es and mailsfor the Regency were taken by surprise. Terceira is bIockaded by the Diana frigate and brig. A Span- ish feet of transports and vessels of war with l7O0 troops, was to sail same day for Manila. The Spanish schooner 'Cornelia was captured by cruiser on the coast of Afriea.'
 Most of this intelligence has been an tieiPated by former advices. The grant ing commissions to priyateers is a near sure which proves that the Regency means to act as we'll as make proclana- tions.-as + Com. Adp.
