LUciFER MATCHES Matches are made in
vast quantities IN N. York by machinery. Small
blocks OF wood are driven through steel plates
filed with small holes IN almost an instant of
time. They are then dipped into the prepared
paste, put up in paper boxes, and sold at some
thing like a dozen for six pence. They are
vended about the city by great numbers of child
rem, who are boarded and lodge by the manu-
facturers. Two millions of matches are used
in that city every day, and an equal quantity
exported.

SUICIDE OF THE Hon. JOHN WMTE.--We learn
from the Lexington (Ky.) Observer Of the Oath
inst, that, on Monday last, the Hon. John White,
who was Speaker Of the United States House OF
Representatives during the 9th Congress, COM
mitted suicide, by blowing out his brains with a
pistol at his residence, in Richmond, KY. The OBJ
server remarks that pecuniary embarrassment was
supposed to be the cause; but no positive reason
was known for the deed A letter from Col. Irvine
gives the following particulars:
1.-THE manner Of his death renders it doubly de-
plorablc For some months, his health has been
very feeble, accompanied by great depression Of
spirits. He returned yesterday, about o'clock,
D. m, from holding the Breathiti court-not, as his
physician thought any worse than when he left about
a week previous. This morning he seemed TO be
somewhat worse in body and mind, but not to such
an extent us TO create any alarm in his family.
He remained to-day mostly in one of the chambers
Of his house, until about oclock, p M, when he
shot himself with pistol in the right temple--the
ball coming out at the back part Of the head, on the
left side---and expired Immediately"
Mr.. White was, at the time Of his death, judge of
the 18th judicial district to which station he was
appointed by Gov. Owsey just before the termina-
ton of the last session Of Congress- He represent
ed the district in which he resided for the last ten
years in the Congress Of the U. S.-Baii Sun.

FROM THE AFRICAN SQUADRON.

The Preble brings. dispatches to the Secretary Of
the Navy, from our squadron, under the command
Of Com. Charles VIM. Skinner, on the coast Of
Africa. They are long, and extend from 7th June
last to 29th August, principally written from Porto
Grande island Of St. Vincent's, but do not contain
much important intelligence.
In letter, written Eat sea" on the Goth June, the
Commodore calls the attention of the department
to the importance Of selecting class of vessels the
best adapted to the purpose for which they de-
signedvz: the suppression of the slavc-trade under
the American fag--and the protection Of our COM
merce and our citizens engaged in lawful pursuits.
As the number Of guns prescribed by the treaty is
eighty, he advises, in order to attain the greatest
efficiency, that this number should be divided on
board as many vessels as may be of suitable rate to
cope, in case of need, with any SLAYER they might
fall in with on the coast and thinks that our ten
gun briggs are a-suficent, and, for the protection
of commerce, quite efficient as the sixteen-gun
soops BY this change the squadron would corr
sst Of briggs, ten guns each--60; and the flagship,
90; which would make up the complement. This
would always keep at least four on the coast, and
sometimes five, with one up at the Canaries recruit
ing and another going to the coast to take tho
place Of the one coming off from the eeward, whose
cruise had terminated at is important that flag
should be frequently shown along the coast; and,
with the number of voDses above specified il would
be seen at all the important points every few days"
On the 9th of August, Captain Skinner writes the
Secretary, that on the 10th OF June, he Tin the
United States ship Jamestown) "sailed for the
isands--the Preble for Porto Praya. Arrived at
Madeira on the 28th, we exchanged salutes and
cviliucs with the authorities, and replenished our
water, &c. On the Sd July, notified the governor
of my intention TO salute the next day, (being the
anniversary Of American independence;) he re-
quesied permission to join. AT meridian, saluted
with 26 guns---tbe principal battery on the shore
doing the same. We called on the governor, and
exchanged the courtesics usual on such occasions"
On the 18th of August, the Commodore remarks
upon the dangers which the health of the officers
and crews might sustain from expeditions sent into
the interior He states, that in protecting our COM
merce, the commanders are strictly charged 10 pre-
vent far as possible, the prostitution Of our flag
to facilitate the slsvc-trade and that this may be
done without other risks than those incidental to

miles shorter from this city to Pittshurg than by
the direction Of the Cumberland and Ohio road, and
the proposed extension to Pittsburg. A traveller
from Pttsburg, by this route, would reach Phila-

important ones, and cannot fail to make the question

THE SECRETARy'S CIRCULAR AGAIN.
The Portsmouth IN. H. Mercury" Of Septem-


Der 25th has the following paragraph.
"We observe the Journal gives currency to the
silly story started by the National Inteiigencer
Neto York Tribune, and some other federal papers,
that Mr. Secretary Walkers circular of inquiries to
manufacturers has been transmitted only 10 those
manufacturers who are Of the democratic party in
politics, by copying articles from the 7ii6uns and
the Lo,ceH Courier We knop that those 10 whom
copies of this circular have been transmitted for
distribution in this vicinity, were instructed by the
Secretary TO send them to manufacturers indiscrim
lnately, and that the Secretarys instructions have
been strictly complied with; and we have no reason
10 believe that different course has been pursued
in other sections Of the country, Notwithstanding
the statements Of federal papers 70 this effect. There
has been nothing like secrecy observed in this mat
ter. The circular was published in the Union at
Washington, and copies of it have been scattered
profusey throughout the country and it is really
surprising that papers Of any pretensions to candor
and dignity should give currency to such an idle,
silly charge II they cannot find some more solid
foundation upon which 10 found complaint against
the administration, they will display much moro of
wisdom and sense to remain silent"

perceiye that the New York Courier and Enqui-
rcr, in an article published short time since, at
tacks that portion of Mr.. Ingersors work on the
late war in which reference is made TO Commodore
Stewards services in the American navy during
that period, and attempts to create the impression
that the author is dealing unjusy by the reputation
Of that distinguished officer in the account he gives
of his services. Commodore Stewart will not, of
course, pay attention to this transparent effort Of q
wing newspaper especially, as am assured-and
make the assertion upon the best authority--that
Mr.. lngersoll is indebted to Commodore Stewart
for the information which is denounced by the New
