InE LOST STEAMSHIP PRgslpEST.-W have been show copy of the Cork (Ire- land1 Examiner, ot January 29d, which states that the Madrid Gazette asserts that the Min- ister of the Interior had received commu. nication from the Political Chief of Guipoz- eoa, announcing that bottle had been found floating ill the water near Montrieo. Spain, containing paper of the contents of which the following words only could be ciphered.
 Ship President. We are blocked up in ice, aud we can't live much time Kind friends will aeqnaint We are dying of hunger am iaiuting If, fs. =
 The bottle was found by solhe fishermen, and handed to the Alcado of Montrico, a lew leagues from s.. Sebastian. \ copy of the paper has beens communicated to the Bri- fish Minister. asf
 The London Literary Gazette, ill aluding to this account, says
 "fhe probability is that the unfortunate | steamer went down nearly where last seen, aud, owing to tie weight of her machinery, IS floating new, uubroken and without frag- mehti sent te the surface, at a sad mid-depth ol ocean, as the strong current of these seas walt her hulk to and fro. Al some future time, when tic pershing wood is separated from tho heavy iron, and the latter sinks, the last vestagos Of the President may be met with on the Atlantic wave This opinion IS much strengthened by the following notice fom the Pacilic Ocean 'oa the 30th of December part of the hulk of the lIambro or Cleopatra's Barge, wrecked some fifteen or tweaty years ago, siarled up from it's wa- tefy bed and washed upeA lAe shore.

SUDDEN DEATH OF THE GOVERNOR OF DE- LAwARE-The Delaware Journal comes to us dressed.in mourning, on account of the sudden death of Major Thomas Stockton, the Governor of that State. He expired sudden ly on Monday evening, while sitting in a chair in the office of the clerk of the Or phans' Court at Newcastle. His health pre- viously was good, and his death therefore was the moe unexpected, and has created deep regret. He was Captain in the U. S Army during the last war, and under Gen
 Scott nobly defended his country at Fort George, and other points on he frontier oi Canada: By his death, pr. Maull, president of the Senate, becomes ex-oaicio Governor of the State. Clipper.

SOMETHING LIKE A NEwspAPEis.---The London Times, the most influential news paper in Euglanl, was commenced by joint stock company. On it's first appearance it was small, dingy looking sheet; but as it possessed taleus which forced it into notice it soon attracted public attention, and grad- ually increased in size, power and inlluences The property is, at the present time, divided into tweaty four shares, of which sixteen belong to Hr. John Waller The political opinions of the journal are directed by the majority of the shareholders; and thus, as Mr, Walter possesses two thirds of lhe entire property, his voice alone controls the bias of the journal. The value of the Times, in q purely commercial point of view, is e3l5, 00O--eacll share being worth I Gl3,000. The annual profit of the Times k about f45000, Of whichMr. Walter receives, as his portion, G30,0O0. | goes on the cash system and never grants cledit 10 any one. Every no- iiee of death or a marriage Is charged for the simplest annoancement not being in serted for less than seven shillings and six pence, nearly two dollars It Is said that Mr. Walter gave his daughter, as her wed- ding portion, the profits of the first column of advertisements ill the first page of the journal--a splendid fortune.

CbaEhN ATOhI, Mdrcn O3 1S4O. oIR; The new planet Astria was seen here on the night both of March 3rd and 4th A mere glimpse, however, was had of 1t through the clouds, late on the night of the 3rd.
 When l turned the telescope upon it last night for the purpose of determining its po- sitlon, the observations were again interrup- ted by clouds, so that obtained no differen- uai observations except i'll k. A. only
 It's approximate place, however, is l8o N. and R. A. 4h. 39m.

A CURIOUS MAcRiNE-lt is stated thata Yankee in Massachusetts has invented sewing machine which will render the pathos of this song more appropriate than ever. It is very compact, not occupying space. of more than about six inches each way. It runs with so much ease that we should sup
 pose oao person might easily operate twenty
 or thirty of them, and the work Is done i'll most thorough and perfect manner, Both sides of the seam look alike, appearing to be beautifully stiched, and the seam iscloser and more uniform than when seyed by hand. IL will SOW straight or curved seams with equal facility, and so rapidly that 1t takes but two minutes to sew the whole length of the outside seam of pair of mems panta- looms l, sets 400 stitches minute with perfect ease. and the proprietor thinks there is no difficulty iii setting zoo in minute.- The thread is less worn by this process than hand sewing, and consequently retains more of its strength. This machine for its sins pllcity and accuracy, rapidily end perfection of its operation is placed by an Eastern writer Tn the same rank with a carding machine, the straw brsider, the pin machine and the coach lace loom-naehines which never fail 10 command the admiration of every intelligent beholder. .- PittsbWgA sGif.
