Amongst the losses by the great fire on Satur.
day last we are sure our readers will sincerely
deplore the destruction of the plates Of the i'm
mense and beautiful work of Audubon, the orni-
tholigist The edition of bis costly work which
has been issued, was very limited, and conse.
quently the copies extant will be esteemed in
proportion to the scarcity. After so many
years Of patient toll, to be thus deprived, in one
short hour, ofthe fruits which industry merits,
and his declining age requires, is a cruel fate
Ills loss may probably be about $4,000 on

MR.. VALENTINES WITHDRAWAL.
1t will be seen, from the subjoined let
ter, that Mr.. Valentine has not come short
of what could be expected from every true
democrat. Ascertaining that there was no
difference, in principle, between him and
Mr.. Davis, and no longer, therefore, any
occasion for his remaining on the field, he
has, at once, withdrawn. This move will
ring the death knell to the hopes of our OPP
ponents, and place Mr.. Valentine high in
the confidence of his party. We hope to
have his strong arm battling for US on an
other field:

Movements Of Merican Troops.--The
steam schooner Augusta, Capt. Gillet, ar
rived here yesterday from Matamoros.
which place she left on the 18th instant.
We have CLEANED some items from a letter
written,by a resident of Matamoros to CAPT.
Gillet, on the day he sailed.
The letter, speaking OF the movements
of the troops in the vicinity of Matamoros,
says It was known positively that all the
points of the Rio Grande would soon be
covered; that General Arista had about 3,
600 men within one days march of Mat.
amoroS on the 18th; that General Paroles
was on his march TO Monterey with 900
or. 5 600 men; that General Gaona was al
so on the march with 1900; that General
Bustemenie was going TO New Mexico.
The letter then says Notwithstanding
these preparations, believe that hostilities
are not SO immediate as might be thought
at frstD
Itseems that no General-in- Chief had
yet been appointed, aud there are no con-
tracts for the necessary supplies Of CAM
paign or for serious invasion Of Texas
Iropic.

The French Navy The French Gov
eminent has been making prepal atoms for
large increase ofits naval force, and; &C.
cording to the report OF the Minister of
Marine, is now building four large war
steamers of upwards of four hundred and
fftyhorse power. The new transatlantic
steamers are not enumerated in this report
There are upwards of score of these, and
more than twelve, in addition to all these,
are in course of building. The French
steam navy will, if they go on at this rate,
soon double that of Great BEitain; at least
so says the English press, which. is calling
loudly for an increase ofthe British NAVY.

are, as it were, exempt from the tolls of ex-
istence: and though, without property, that
any one knows of, do still contrive to make
a gentlemanly appearance, and to have
their full share of the good things of the

filth and rags, but like gentlemen of the

And how do they live, having no bank
accounts, as some body else remarks of
them--"drawing no dividends making
no deposites?" GAIL their wants." says the
same authority, "appear to be supplied in

The subjoined editorial paragraph, from
the Port Gibson Correspondent, defining
the position of Mr.. Jefferson Davis upon
the BriScoe bill, took occasion, at the re-
cent political discussion at Vicksburg, to
present to him for his approval or disa-
vowal. His public reading, and subStan-
tial appreciation of the position, as there
defined, giving general satisfaction to the
democracy, regard the occasion which
called me before the people, as candidate
tor congress, as entirely removed.
Believing that the party in this division
ofthe state, now present an unbroken front
in support of this great measure; you will
withdraw my name as a candidate; and

JEFFERSON DAWSON Monday, We
had the pleasure of seeing Mr.. Davis in
Port Gibson, and Of listening to his very
able speech, in which he gave a rapid and
mastery sketch of the various political
questions Of the day. The impression he
produced was entirely favorable, and his
effort advanced him highly in the good
opinion of all who heard him. We can
not attempt to give view of even the sub
stance of his speech, except OF such of his
remarks as related to the BriScoe bill. On
that subject his views seemed to give gen
eral satisfaction. He stated that his opin-
ion had been misunderstood and misrepre-
sented. He declared himself opposed TO
all Legislation comforting upon the banks
any further privileges than those confer
red on them by their charters. He thought
the banks soould stand or fall by the laws,
as they existed, at the time of their charter,
and was opposed to any alterations in them
to confer privileges not possessed by the
charter. He was for leaving it for the
courts to decide whether any possessed
the right to sue alter judgment of forfeit
ture, and was opposed to comforting that
right, ifnot already possessed.
