MEssRs. EDITORS: In the last Democrat,
find the following:
"Mr. HALL will oblige me by publishing my
Fourth July sentiment, which was refused to be
received for promulgation; and l presume from
wing arrangement. The sentiment was:
POLK and DALLAS, OREeoN and TEXAS,
BEEroN and ArcuIsoN--all will work we'll when
the tempest calms.'"
Now who this "ME" is, cannot tell, as Mr..
Halls correspondent has thought proper, doubt.
less from prudential reasons, to keep his name
from the public. And the gentleman who read
that sentiment remarked that it had been handed
to him, but he did not say by whom. But be
this man whom he may, he has certainly betrayed
a great want both OF common sense and good
feeling, and hesitate not to say. the opposition
to that sentiment was not the result OF swing ar.
rangement," and that Mr.. Halls correspondent
knec it, if he pere present. 1t was the result OF
general agreement. Wing sentiments had been
refused that morning, and by wings; and for the
reason, that the 4th Of July was day that ought
to be regarded as a National Sabbath, when all,
OF all parties, could meet as brothers, free from
the excitement which party politics and party sen,
tinents are prone TO produce.

it was a mistake. His conduct, however, gave
rise to much comment, which so preyed upon
his mind, that he committed suicide by jump
ing overheard on the first of October. 1t is
quite probable that the seizure of the Argentine
vessels was in part caused by their firing into
the "Bainbridge."
An extract of letter dated Montevideo,
Oct. 18th, says:
"Capt. Newman, of the U. s. brig Balm
bridge, drowned himself last night, by jump
ing from the brig in the harbor.
81 came up with him from Moldonado, and
saw he was becoming insane, in consequence
of not having fred into a schooner of the
blockading squadron which fred three shots at
him when he first arrived from the United
States. In vain did we assure him that his
conduct was such as to meet the appreciation
of his country. His state Of mind was distress
sing and the consequences are still more So"
Advices from Brazil state that fresh disturb
ances had broken out at Pernambuco, aud
obliged the Imperial Government to send a
considerable reinforcement of troops to that
quarter.
The relations between Brazil and Buenos
Ayres were of the most amicable character.
General Oribe had published a decree, pro-
hibiting the introduction of merchandise from
Montevdeo into any other of the Oriental Re-
public.
The latest accounts from Rivera are given
in the Packet of September Ia. To wit, that
after vain attempt of three days to gain POS
session of Cerro Largo, small town on the
frontier, he and his force took to flight on the
approach of Gen. Urquiza, and had not been
heard of since.
Captain Norris, of the barque Creole, arrived
this morning from Montevdeo, reports that
when he sailed on the l8th of October, the
United States frigate Congress, sloop Boston
and brig Bainbridge were lying in the harbor.

LECTURE OF PRoF. MAGENIs THIS EVENING.
We remind our readers, that Professor Mage
mis- will deliver his Lecture on Elocuton, Ora
tory and Defamation, this evening, at the Sa-
loon of the Atheneum. We publish the fol-
lowing notices of his Lectures in New York, as
evidence of the high estimation in which his
talents as Lecturer were held in that city.
From the Commercial Advertiser, New York;
Mr.. MAGENIs' SoIREE.-We had an oppor-
tunity of hearing the recitatons of this distin-
guished elocutionist last evening, and can add
our testimony to the high encomiums he has
received in his native country. He is an ac-
compshed reader-a master of every thing APP
pertaining to his art; and Notwithstanding the
maturity of his age, exhibits in his delineation
of character and passion all the fire and vigor
of youth. "Rolla's address to the Peruvans,"
was spoken with more taste, more force, and
truth to nature, than exhibited on our stage
His "Young Lochnvar" was recited with great
enthusiasm, and received loud APPRECIATION
We hope that Mr.. Magenis will yet become
better known to our citizens.
From the Christian lntegencer of New York
PROFESSOR MAGENIs' LEcruRE-I had the
pleasure oflstening to this gontleman's lecture
on eloquence last Monday evening. | had heard
him formerly give specimens of defamation.
and forensic elocution: last Monday he fully
sustained his character, on the higher and gra-
yer branch of this science; namely Pulpit Eio-
quence. He gave us several choice specimens
of reading the Holy Scriptures, and the Episco-
pal service, as taught and practised by some of
the best speakers of Britain. He also gave us
specimens of the peculiar eloquence of DR..
Chalmers and of Dean Kirwin.-These were
interesting and truly impressive But the de-
livery of Adam and Ewes Morning Hymn was
exqusitely fine. w. G. BRowNLEE.
