The SrEAM:HiP OF WAR MIssouRI-THE Ia
KING Her TO SEA BY A NEW YoRX PiLor.-On Fri
day last,cne of our expert NewYork pilots, Gregory
Thomas, of the pilot boat Washington, took the
steamship Missouri safely to sea in fne style -
When off the point Of the Hook, Captain Newton
asked the pilot to point out some place where he
could obtain some sand to scrub the decks with
The pilot pointed out a spot on which the captain
had the engines stopped, and sent boat on shore,
to get boat load Of sand. In the meantime the
ship remained oil the point of the Hook, and made
a circle of mile, came back to the same poi,t,
picked up her boat, and went of on her trip tri-
umphantly.
And yet, out Of this circumstance the Journal of
Commerce, and other Wall street papers, manufac.
tured a most infamous Misunderstanding that the
pilot ran the Missouri ashore on the point Of the
Hook, and that she remained there one hour This
scandalous story is characteristic of the impudence
and ignorance with which the Wall street papers
make assertions against the New York pilots and
those who support them and is characteristic of
the whole of the impudent reckless ignorance, and
unblushing conduct Of the Wall street press We
advise the pilot, Mr.. Gregory, to commence an &C.
tion against the Wall street papers for fths is not
case for exemplary damages, then we don't know
what is.
And now is the time for Congress to attend to this
subject; this is specimen of the way in which the
whole OF the ISLANDERS against the New York pilots
have been got up; and the above is also sample of
what foundation there has been for the whole of
them. Congress mus, do them Justice

me Mormons--A Leaf from Joe smith.


We give in this days paper, a very curious chap
ter from the 'Bco& of Abraham which we find
published in the last number Of weekly journal,
allied the Times and Seasons" conducted by Jo'
Smith the great Mormon Prophet, in the city
Nauvoo, Hancock county, Illinois.
The Prophet says that il was found IN the eau
combs of Egypt, but he is mistaken IA THIS ldea'-
The article was discovered, presume by Joseph
Smith, the grandfather near one oil the proPy IONS
of Medinet Abu, in the ''City of the Sum- In Upper
Egvn,. TIL. same civ which Homer says had
hundred gates Champoon, Young, Rosselini,
and various other antquariass give notices of the
maenihcen, ruins, in red granite, that strewn
over the banks of the Nile. Be all this as 1t may,
the Prophet Of Nauvoo has given the chapter, and
il is set down as a revelation among the Mormons.
This Joe Smith is undoubtedly one of the greatest
characters OF the age. He Indicates as much talent,
originality, and moral courage as Mahomet, Oin,
OF any Of the grea; spirits that have hitherto produ
ced the revolutions of past ages In the present in
fdel, nesious, material, ideal, geological, animal
magnetic age Of the world, some such singular pro-
phet as Joe Smith is required to preserve the prin.
cple of faith, and to plan, some germs Of civil
ization that may come to maturity in thousand
years. While modern philosophy, which believes
Al holhing out WHAT you can toucn - OVtIspiSau-
ing the Atlantic States, ice Smith is creating
spiritual system, combined also with morals and in
dustry, that may change the destiny Of the race
Joe believes himself divinely inspired and worker
of miracles. He cures the sick of dssases-so it is
said:-and although Joe s not aware of the fact, we
have been informed by medical man that his in
fluence over nervous disorders, arises from pow
erful magnetic influence-rhat Joe is a magaet in
large way, which he calls power spirit from
heaven. In other respects Joe is a mighty man Of
God-possessng large stores of human nature
great shrewdness. aud as he has taken the manage
ment Of the Mormon newspaper organ, the "Times
and Seasons into his hand, we look for many re-
Violations, and some curious ones too, pretty soon.
We certainly want some such prophet TO start up,
take big hold of the public mind-and stop the
torrent OF materiaism that is hurrying the world into
infediity, immortality, RIGHTEOUSNESS, and crime.
Professor Lyel. Richard Adams Locke, Dc. Bris-
bane, Master Enmerson, Prophet Brownson, Ho-
race Greedy, and all the materialsts of the age,
ought to take leaf of common sense out of Joe's
book.

| We are making arrangements (the particulars
will be announced at the opening Of the SEES
| sion) which WILL we think, secure the Madisonlan
more universal circulation. Our incessant labors
| for the last twelve months have impaired our
health and rendered occasional relaxation absolutely
necessary. We have therefore secured the services
Of one of the best writers of the day, who assist
ant editor, will devote his whole time to the paper
We have secured correspondents in many of the
States, whose letters will keep readers constantly
advised of the political movements throughout the
Union.
We will give daily condensed report Of the pro-
ceedings of both Houses Of Congress; and the most
important speeches will be published at length in our
columns.
The official transactions Of the Government will
be published in the Madisonian exclusively.
The views and purposes of the Executive, in ref
erenee TO the course and policy OF the Administers
ion, will, as heretofore, be made known through the
columns of this paper.
The PnNcIrLEs of the Madisonan known to
be those Of the REPUBLICAN PARTY Of '9S. They
will be adhered to through sunshine and storm.
We ask friends, who are the advocates of Truth
and Justice, to exert themselves in behalf of the
Madisonian, between this and the assembling OF
Congress, so that the organ of the Administration
may not only be efficient in repelng attacks but in
carrying, when necessary, the war into Africa.
We trust that our friends generally will be able
to send us additional new subscribers by the Mem
bers.
