The magnificent steamer the new Nilsson.
n, Captain George Taylor, arrived at the Lee.
wee, last evening, from st Louis we have
not as yet had an opportunity of seeing her.
We extract the following description Of her
from the 81. Louis Sun
The new Missouri, one Of the finest steam
ers afioat, Is now at the foot of Green street,
taking in her furniture. Her hull was built
by Mr.. Burton Hagan, of Cincinnati, and her
cabin by VIM. Garig. Esq, of st. Louis. All
her machinery, furniture, &c, are Of 81. LOUIS
manufacture. She is $50 feet keel; 3Og ON
deck 36 feet beam and 81 feet hold. Light.
she draws 5 feet water. Her equipments are
of the most utilitdrian character without
much ornament, she ia the pride of The west.
ern waters. She has upwards of fifty state.
rooms for the accommodation of passengers, 4
spacious cabin and fine promenade guards
What struck Us as a decided Improvement.
was the arrangement of the after guard, being
so protected by lattice work that children NAV
play there with safety-an arrangement Of
Immense Importance TO parents travelling
with their infant charges. Z
Below stairs the new Missouri is propor.
commodious, being we'll provided with
accommodations for deck passengers. Her
boilers are in number seven, and all her pro.
pe!llng works Of great power and exquisite
finish.

public, that the celebrated individual whose
name heads this paragraph, and who has late,
lg figured extensively throughout The Union
has brought disgrace upon himself and family
BY ANONYMOUSLY deserving from the service b
his country.
A reward Of $50 is offered by the com.
manding officer at this post, for his apprehen-
sion.
We feel gratifed in publishing the follow.
ing deliberations Of the Presbyterian Church
They breathe a spirit of christianity union
and patriotism which reflects the highest
credit on that Church
The following resolutions were adonted Al
the late meeting Of the General Assembly 81
the Presbyterian church, at Cincinnati. IN an.
swer to petitions and memorials presented 10
them on the subject of Slavery.
"Fhe apostles Of Christ sought TO ameIiot.
ate the condition Of slaves, not BY denoun-
cling and accommodating their masters. but
by teaching both master and slaves the glori.
Gus doctrines of the Gospel, and enioinlpg nm.
on such the discharge Of their relative du-
ties.
Thus only can the church ofChrist. as such.
now Improve the condition Of the slaves in
our country. As to the extent of the evils in.
VoIved In slavery and the best methods Of re-
moving them, various opinions prevail, and
heltheT the scriptures nor our constitution.
authorize this body 70 present any other par
tIcutar course to be presented by the churches
under our care. The assembly cannot but
rejoice however, to learn that the minister's
and churches in the slave holding states are.
awake TO a deep sense Of their obligation. io
extend TO the slave population generally, the
means OF grace, and many slave holders not
pFoiessedly religious favor this object. We
earnestly eXhort them to abound more audI
more in the good work" y = y
Resolved FIRST, that the General Assemble
OF the Presbyterian church in the UnitedI
states, was originally organised, and hasl
since continued the bond of union in the
church, upon the conceded principle that the
eEistance of domestic slavery under the cir.
cumstances in which it is found in the South.
ern portion Of the country. is no bar to chris.
tian communion.
SECOND, that the petitions that ask the as
sembly 70 make the holding Of slaves in it's
eli a matter Of discipline do virtually require
this Indicatory to dissolve il self and abandons
the organization under which, by the divine
blessing il has SO long prospered.
The tendency is evidently to separate the
northern from the southern portion OF the
church a result which every good citizen
must dePlore as tending to the dissolution OF
the union Of our beloved country, and which,
every enlightened christian will oppose as
bringing about a ruinous and unnecessary
srhism between brethren who maintain q
common faith. The preamble and resolutions
were adopted, yeas 1874 nays IL, about two
thirds OF lie members Of the Guneral Assem-. {
bly, were from non-slave holding States.

o'Flyn, she was an Irshman, as very well was known,
And she lived down by Kilkenny, and she lived there all

With only six great large tom-csts as knew their ways about,
Aud every body else besides she scruplously shut out. ?
o very fond o. cats was she, and whiskey too, 'ts ssid,l
She didn't feed 'em very much, but she combd EN- we'll
instead;
As may be guessed these large tOm-cats, they didn't get very
sleek
Upon a combing once a day, and a I" hs'poIth " once a week.
Now, on one dreary winters night, O'Flyn she went to bed,
The whiskey bottle under her arm 1.-THE whiskey in her head
The six great large tom-cats, they sat all in a dismal row,
And horribly glned their hungry eyes-theiT tails wagg'd to
and fro;
At last one grain g%reymalkin spoke in accents dire to TELL
And dreadful were the words which in his awful whisper
fell
When all the other FIVE 10 heats in answer loud did squall,
" Let's kill her-and let's eat heI-body and bone and all %
Oh horrible Oh terrible Oh deadly tale to tell!
When the sun shone in the window hole, all there seemd
still and well;
The cats they sat'and lick'd their paws all in a merry ring
But nothing else within the place looked like a living ihing
Anon they quarrell'd ~savagely, and spit, and swOre, and
hollerd, J.
Till at last these six great large tom-cats, they at one ano-

And a very tough one too it waits the same as I've beer
