he is making rapid progress towards the completion
of the work. The panorama commence at Pittsburgh,

COOP NEIGHBoRHooD.-About three weeks since a
saw and grist mill were burnt at Vinalhaven. twas
whispered about among the n~eighbors over the island
that on a certain day all the men and boys should as
semble with teams, and spend at least one day for the
benefit of the sufferer. At early dawn the town was in
motion. Between one and two hundred men and thirty
five teams repaired to the woods, and soon the old mill
site became thronged with sturdy laborers. Tie tim
Der for the two mills was hauled, hewn, and the whole
nearly ready for raising, before night. That was the
right spirit, and with such a principle of benevo-
lence in active exercise, most of the crushing rigors
of life could be greatly ~mitigated or prevented.-Ban-

In A BANDBox.-The Lehigh pa Bulletin relates
that a Mr.. MacDngie, of that county, was recently,
while riding along the road homeward, accosted by
a white female, and requested to carry her bandbox.
He complied, and offered her a seat in has wagon into
the bargain, but she refused. As requested, he carried
the box to the next tavern, handed it out, and waited
for the lady to come up. After bis own and the pa.
thence of the innkeeper was exhausted by her delay,
the box was opened and had in it-not a new cap OF
bonnet-but a jet black child, fast asleep! 1t is per-
haps unnecessary to state that the 'lady" never
came to hand, and the infant was taken to the poor
house of Lehigh county.

discovered by the crew, and the alarm was
given by haiIing the castle. The bells Of
the castle were rung and the lights OF the
town displayed. This did not, however,
deter our brave fellows from boarding the
schooner and setting her on FIRE. Seven
Mexicans were found on board, and forced
into oul boat as prisoners, and landed at

first attempt failed-the light was then ac-
cidently extingusbcd-ovcry thing looked
ominous Of failure. The use Of fire arms
would have provoked the fire of the castle.

From the New Orleans PicsyuAs.
BuPnfng OF tke CrcaI.

The subleined account Of the burning OF
tAe Mexican schooner Creole, uAder the
guns of San Juan de Ulua. is from an officer
of the Somers. There was touch of down.
right ''deVil may care" courage about the
transaction which is as refreshing as the ad.
ventures whereof we find mention in novels
and songs of knightly minstrelsy. 1t was
boldly and gallantly done, and eyinces the
ripeness Of our navy for deeds of utmost
daring. The narrative does not in the least
detract from the merit of the exploit. The
matter and the manner are german:
y. s. Brig Somers, (Blocknding off Vera
CRUZ November 9th, lS46.
Dear Pic: The squadron have not vet
returned from Tampico, but we have heard
that the place has surrendered without any
resistance. While the rest Of the feet have
been thus engaged, we have felt that our lot
was indeed unfortunate TO be left 10 block
ade the port Of Vera Cruz ingloriousIy alone.
We have however not been altogether idle.
Tor last night some Of our officers projected
and executed quite brilliant affair, which.
if not so very important in military point
of view, had a spice Of blayado which was
certainly cleditable. 1t was the BURNING
of a Mexican schooner, moored within pistol
shot Of the castle. She was the Creole. well
known at New Orleans as packet, and /
believe somewhat notorious for her connec>
ton with certain slave question which was
a subject of diplomacy some years ago. She
was about four miles from our ANCHORAGE
and had been an eye.sore TO US, whenever
we were in sight of the town. The feasi~
bility Of burning her at her moorinps had
been for some time discussed, and last night
she was SET on FIRE and destroyed, BY three
Of our officers with Eve men, ia a single
boat.
The officers engaged were Lieut.. ]. 4.

son and Robt. c. Rogers. The affair was
finally started on the impulse Of the mo-
ment, without the cognizance OF the CAPTAIN
or the FIRST lieutenant. Several OF the off,
GERS of the vessel, who were knowing % the
plot, were extremely anxious 10 participate
in its execution, but the limited accomno
datinns Of the boat, united with the proba.
