Sir:-I have The honor to lrausmil here
with various papers numbered from l to
5 inclusive, giving detailed accounts OF
the proceedings of the Squadron under
my command, in relation to the arrange
menl of The difficulties which have so long
existed with many of The native tribes
inhabi,ing that part Of the Coast of Africa,
lying between Cape Mesurado and Cape
Lahou. a.
From the delay in Furnishing the people
of Little Berriby, for The murder of Capt.
Farewell and his crew, and The entire de-
s,ruction ofbis vessel, they had been led
to believe that the occurrence would be
passed over without further notice, and
this has emboldened them 10 greater inso
leuce. Hence punishment came upon them
when least: expected.
In regard TO The amount of punishment,
visited upon these people, there is bu, one
opinion on board ship aud on shore. that
it was far short of what they deserved
but my instructions enjoined measures OF
reasonable lenity. and | was myself dis
posed to such q course. The shedding oil
blood in the affair was unprecedented and
accidental. The natives commenced the
fire, and ilio fortunate that no more OF
them fell.
In the melee King Ben Cracow. and hi
Interpreter were killed. and this would
seem ptovidential result, as both these
persons unGueslionably took an active part
in the massacre of Capt. Farewell aud his
crew.
The known ferceness and treachery oi
most of the African tribes, made it mea
sure Unnecessary prudence to land with a
considerable armed force. and the result
has shown the propriety Of such precaulion,
as at almost every place we were received
by strong bodies of well armed natives,
while we noticed great numbers lurking iu
The skirts of the aeighboriug woods.
NV orders were in all cases to avoid The
effusion Of blood, aud to fire only in self:
defence.
This act of retribu,ive justice upon the
Little Berriby Tribe will furnish an i'm
pressive lesson to the people of other tow ms
suspected Of piralicai acts, while The friend
ly demonstrations made by me to those
tribes not implicated will go far to show
,ha. the American Government greatly
prefers apacific intercourse with all ma,
lions, however insignificant, to one pi
strife, lrl 7f, - tEa .{:aE5.5

Failure Of Mr.. Mayer. r.-Our readers have
already heard Of the failure of d cotton
dealer in this city of the above name. The
Columbus Inquirer, published in Georgia,
contains an article duplicating one G. Kos
Ter. F. Martin, A. Mayer and Lantihon,
in the failure Of the Phenix Bank. It
says that "Koster arranged with the,
bank to purchase cotton, by passing his
drafts on A. Mayer, a respectable mer-
chant iu New York. In this manner.
here and at Apalachicola, (mos,ly al The
Bay,) both Out of doors and 10 bank, he,
succeededin purchasing about 5000 bales
of cotton, shipped ii in great haste to New
Orleans instead of New York, disp0sed .of.
it by sale or otherwise, put the proceeds
in his pocket, aud hurried on 10 the North.
When the people here supposed he was
in New Orleans, honestly arranging to
place his New York correspondent Ia:

probably hidden in New York, and there
Is no doubt employed man who called

the l4thi instant, presented, lin broken do

of the notes, leaving but a few hundred
dollars 10 the vaults 10 pay The balance Of
the debts. The concern eked out a miser-
able existence for one week more, and
then died. leaving not solitary dollar 10

NEW ORLEANS. March %.

Destructive Confagration.-About half
pas, 8 O'Clock last evening FIRE broke our
in the spirit gas, oil and lamp store of Mes
srs. Fuller q CO., No. 5 Royal street, and
so suddenly did it spread among the in.
lammable matter, that 10 few moments
the eutire store was sheet Of flame. The
building was Of brick, three stories high.
the family of Mr.. Fuller occupying part
OF the second floor, while the other portion
was filled with furuiture and other goods.
OF this property we could moi learn what
portion was saved.
The fire next communicated to The ad-
joining house, No. 67, occupied by Mr.
Sampson as furniture store. This, too,
was soon destroyed, together with por-
lion of the contents.
Although every attempt was made to
save e e liquor slore of Messrs. Jordy &
Brasier, No. 60, the upper part was soon
on fire.. A large quantity Of liquor was
rolled from this establishment into The,
street I; yet the loss must have been severe.
AT this point the flames were checked,
although the building No.7l was COM
plesely ridded. and large portion ofaits
contents destroyed or injured. Much loss
was also sustained by the occupants OF the
adjoining buildings in moving their prop
erty; for at FIRST it was thought that nearly
the whole square, as far as Coa,i street,
would be destroyed. AT one time the roof
Of the Bank Of Louisiana, on the opposite
side Of the street and some distance down,
was discovered 10 be on fire, but il was
soon extiuguished.
The above are all the particulars we
could gather Of this unfortunate conaagra-
tion-lhe most disastrous, with tie excep-
lion of the Orleans Cotton Press, which
has befallen our city for months.
P. S. Since writing the above. we regret
TO learn that Mr.. John w. daines. q
member Of the fire department, lost his
life by the falling Of wall. Other per-
sous were severely injured, bul we could
not learn particulars. s.-Picayune.

The rulesssere then suspended 10 allow
Mr.. Brown 10 make statement. II was
in substance as follows. He said The ex-
tract inserted in his amendment, was cop
led verbatim from the "Ohio Statesman"
a paper Of great responsibility He be-
lieved il TO be correct, aud acting upon
that belief, he had drawn up the amend
meut. It was done in good faith, for he
was the last man who would willingly
misrepreseut Mr.. Clay or impose on the
House. He would say, however. that he
had examined the speeches of Mr.. Clay,
he was unable to find the statements in
the extract. He had written 10 the Edi-
itor of the "Slalesman," TO point nut the
particular speech from which the extract
was made, and he would say, that when
The answer came. lift should appear that
injustice has been done, be would frankly
state The fact. At present, however, he
took back nolhiug.
Mr.. White, of KY, discIaimed a,tribu-
ting TO Mr.. Brown any attempt to impose
upon the House, out declared on his
honor as gentleman, that Mr.. Clay du.
ring the whole course Of his public life had
never uttered the sentiments attributed to
him. He pronounced the extract in the
statesman as forgery. Mr.. w. then

NOVEL METHOD OF WORKING
RITTER
BUTTER.

A very useful and ingenious mode of ex.
tracing whey from butter, was recently rela-
ted to me by il gentleman who had resided
many years in the grazing districts of France;
and he informed me that a similar apparatus
Is at present in successful operation, near by
here, in this State, although | have not vet
seen it. He described it in a manner ,ha,
could not fail to be understood to any farmer
in the Union. .
The machine, he represented, as made of
wood, in form not much unlike a grindstone,
closely iiltcd into "A trough, leaving a space
between the stone and bottom of the trough
not exceeding a sixteenth of an inch in thick
ness. The trough is first filled with clean
wafer saturated with salt, one end of winch
is crowded full of the newly-cliurned butter.
Then the stone is put in motion by means of
the crank or otherwise, and the butter is
drawn beneath it, and comes out at the other
end OF the trough in thin sheets, not more
Than one 10th of an inch in thickness, almos,
entirely freed from the whey, and for com.
mon use requires no further sailing. The
brine thus prepared, has another very i'm
portant Office to perform. 1t imbibes, BY
chemical affinity, all the whey with which i,
comes in contact, and leaves the butter itself.
Although this apparatus is extremely rude
and simple, it is obvious to an ingenious me-
%cl'anic, how easily such a machine could be
improved upon. and answer a tenfold pur.
pose. J.

Another terrible instance of centrifugal
force bursting n grindstone, occurred at The
w. 5. Water Shop on Monday last. When
gong with immense velocity, il burst apart,
one half going through the side of the shop
and over tine pond, to the opposite bank,
where II lodged. The other half. weighing
about 400 lbs. burst through the floor above,
cutting a sleeper in two, as it were, like a
pipe STEM. The man who was grinding a,
the stone, had stepped one side a moment,
at The limo of the bursting, and thus his life
was saved. Several workmen above the
noor, when the stone burst through, narrow.

suffer in body and in mind. TO deprive them
of it is oppressive and cruel. 1t brings upon them
a premature old age, and often consigns them to
an u%n.imely grave.
One Of the most distinguished Medical Pro.
f,ssors in the United States observes, "1he
Sabbath should be regarded as a most benevolent
institution adapted alike to The physical, mental,
and moral wants Of man. In addition to con.
slant bodily labor, the corroding influence Of in
c,ssant mental c~xcrtion and solicitudc, cannot
fail to induce premature decay, and to shorten
LIE. There cannot be a reasonable doubt that
under the due observance of the Sabbath life
would, on the average. be prolonged more than
'ne seventh part OF its whole period" A. 3.

I build my nest on the mountains crest,
Where the wild winds rock my eaalets to rest;
Where the lghtnings flash and the ihunders era
And the roaring torrents foam and dash
For my spirit free henceforth shall be

Aloft I fly, from my eyrio high,
Through the vanlled dome Of The azure sky;
On a sunbeam bright take my airy flight,
And float in a flood of liquid light:
For | love to play in the noontide ray,
And bask in a blaze from the throne Of Day.
Away I spring, with n 'ireless wing,
On the feathery cloud I poise and swing

And the clear blue cnn"p slowly sweep:
For dear to me is the reveiry
OF q free and fearless Liberty.
I love the land where the mountains stand
Like the wa,ch-towers high of a patriot band
For / may not bide, in my glory aud pride,
Though the land be never So fair and wide,
Where Luxury reigns DER voluptuous plains,
And letters The free-born soul IN chains.
Then give to me in my flight to sec
The Land OF the Pilgrims ever free;
And ne er will rove from The haunts ! love,
But watch, from my sentinel track above,
Your banner free over land and sea,
And exult in your glorious destiny.
Oh, guard ye well the land where I dwell,
Lest to future times tho talcI tell,
When slow expires in smouldering fires
The goodly heritage of your sire>,
How freedoms light rose clear and bright
From fair Columbia's beacon hight,
Till e q~uenched the flame in q siarless night.
Then will | tear from your pcnnon fair
The stars We set in trump, there!

The %fittering stripes from the flag. staff wrench!
And away I'll flee. for srprn IN see
