Ing at FayaI, Glbraller, Smyrna, Malta
&C., on her passage out, but not a word
was said about her returning by the
same route or any other. HoweveT,
the business has leaked out and the Oh.
ject of the Bangor Steamship visiting
lie ports OF the Mediterranean IS thus
stated by one of the part owners, in a
letter TO a Commercial House IN New
Orleans:
81 have bought a part OF the Steam
ship Bangor, a boat built BY Brown and
Bell, in New York, eight years ago. for
a sea route batween Boston and Bangor;
but faster boats have been put on tho
route, and she was Withdrawn. This
boat is fast enough for our purpose
We are putting her in first rate order.-
She is intended 10 tow vessels through
the DardanejIes and Bosphorus, where
the winds and current are contrary for
sailing vessels for eight or nine months
in the year. There is another business
which promises to be very lucrative al

Perhaps it proceeds from our having

we are led completely to sympathise
with those who are compelled under
any circumstances TO quit their homes.
Even il a fitting be permitted under

there is something really melancholy ir

change of residence is always an incon
venience to the rich, but to the Irish
poor it is frequently only a change from
the misery of a wrelched hovel TO the
exposure and starvation of the high
roads. We witnessed a narrowing scene
OF this description which we cannot
easily forget, and it is one which my
American reader will imagine over

Homfuard Bound Hundreds and
hundreds Of passengers who came here
in the spring from Europe are leaving
The country by every conveyance Ma
ny more return to England than those
who arrive in our packet ships, and
most Of those returning home are those
who came out in the spring IN search
Of employment. The passengers are
taken back sometimes as low as six dol
lars a head, for the reason that they are
"bonded' here. and the owners OF the
packet ships bringing them out are
made responsible If they become pau
pers. 1t is a good bargain to carry them
back for nothing at this season OF Tho
year when so many. especially OF the
poor population are out of employ, and
are not like 10 have any before the
spring 1t is worthy OF remark that
those who go are nearly all English and
Irish, not one ofa hundred is a German,
and this because a German emIgra no

RISE IN YOUR STRENGTH.

BY J. H. BUTLER.
Rise in your native strength,
Mechanics Of the land!
And dash the iron rule
From rude expressions hand,
Byatrrhe might Of mInd,
Assume the place Of men
Heed not the scott Of those
Who scorn the aftizan.
Ye sinews Of a state,
Your nations pride and boast,
Whose glory crowns her hills,
And guards her native coast.
You are her wealth in peace,
Her vital breath ye are,
And when the bolts Of death are hurl'd
Ye are she shields IN war.
By the eternal sword,
To stern browd Justice given;
By Freedoms holy self,
The night of wrong is %riven;
Strong monuments arise
In record Of your praise,
Transmitting down your names
To men OF other days.
Proclaim to all this world
Your usefulness and worth;
Speak out with trumpet tongue,
Ye mighty men of earth!
Was not the soil ye tread
Won by your fathers blood!
Then on expressions self,
Roll back expressions flood.

Mr. EDIToR The long agony is over, and VIII
LIAM HENRY HAYwooD is elected to the United
States Senate. All parties ratied that this excl
ting election is at end Mr. HAYwooD is known to
be gentleman ofdistinguishcd ability, and too who
has done much for, and suffered much in the cause
of Democracy any other
A combination of unforeseen events has brought it
about that both the friends of essrs Brown and Saun-
ders have united upon him, with a unanimity which
one could have anticipated at period of the session.
1t known that notwithstanding the wishes of Messrs
Saunders and Brown to the contrary the more ardent
friends of these gentlemen, did in instances and
to some degree, bring the question of the Democratic
Candidacy for the Presidency, bear upon the Senate
rial election-andit is well known that the witty leaders
of the Federal Party have with their usual address,
deavored to fasten this conviction upon the public mind,
both here and elsewhere. with the view of dividing the
Democratic Party of North Carolina, in twan--an im-
preston which every person here knows to be utterly
destitute ofany foundation to sustain it. For it is known
to every person here, that Messrs Saunders and
both deprecated any such issue being made up Mr. Brown
avering his determination support Mr. Calhoun with
ardor if the nominee of general Convention, of the de-
mCcracy of the nation, and portion of his (Calhoun)
friends jealousy sustaining him (Mr. Brown believing
that the Democratic Party in North Carolina bound
to return him the u S. Senate after he had been in
sructed out of his seat by Whig Legislature doing
the very act which Democratic Legislature had pre-
viously commanded him 10 do (. e.) voted for the
PungIns resolution 1t is also known that few of those
who supported Judge Saunders, prefer MIR. Van Buren,
For these the great body the Democracy here

without dissenting voice. Under the conviction, that
it was the determination of the friends of Gen. Saunders
to carry the question before the Legislature and seeing
that all hopes at end for it to be settled IN eau
Gus, and considering Col Brown 10 be the candidate of
the Democratic party, according to the principles which
had ever governed that party, nominated him on my
own responsibility As am alluded to in the commun
cation referred to the individual to whoma proposition
was made by friend of Gen Saunders, not to nominate
him If Col Brown should be Withdrawn. emphatcally
state that no such proposition made to
thorized from Gen. Saunders, was requested to
submit any such proposition to Col Brown 1t is true
that friend of Gen. Saunders general conversation
the subject remarked that it would be best to throw
both candidates overheard and select third one; but
again repeat, that no such proposition submitted to
me as coming from General Saunders, and that
quently never communicated to Col Brown any such
proposition, as considered to have been made.
further state that is utterly false that Col Brown
that he took any part the proceedings of the Senate of
which he is member in relation TO the Senatorial cleo
ton but all occasions, as am informed from
questionable authority, retired from his seat, whenever
any question having the remotes bearing that cleo
ton, was about TO be considered.
also state, the evening preceding the first caucus,
and before vote was taken that Col Brown called
on and requested that after the vote taken, if he
should be in the minority, that should withdraw his
name, and state that it his wish that his friends
should unite with the majority In that contingency,
l certainly should have pursued such course.
Yours, respectfully,
