AS an inhabitant OF New York, have been struck
with the pecuarities of the company at this place,
it being mostly composed of the celebrities of PAT
ladelphia and New Jersey; their precise manner,
their slow, measured gait, their easy and distinct
pronunciation, and then nice regard tor the formal
tiles OF etiquette, which we democrats OF Gotham
read of in books, stand pre-emment. We have,
among others, staying at this house, from New
Jersey, the McCas, the Walls the Becketts, the
VIoons, the McKnlghts, the Stocktons, the Hop
kmsons; from Phlladel phla, the lngersolls, the
Dlddes, The Montgomerys, The Earl OF EglntoD,
the Laws, and host OF others Our house, kept
by Green, fer good living and quiet enjoyment, is
all the paradise a pent up citizen can ask tor on
this earth.
The country Is cultivated to the water and the
ride and walk by the ocean side, on levelban of
sea, and extending some six miles, is unsurpassed
At times we have in view hundred sail, ''bellow-
ing their white canvass 10 the breeze" and now
and then your own News Bvy'' halls US, passing
by.
The fishing here is always good. In the morn
ing, a swarm OF small boats, each manned by two
men, so far in the distance they seem no larger
tran ducks, May be seen booming on the waves
This sport is enjoyed by the gentlemen but occa-
slonally one OF the falr more venture some than
the rest, trusts herself to the bounding element,
for the benefit OF its sanatory qualities, so well
known. Almost every house on the beach has
made improvements during the last year, and there
accommodations here tor two thousand visit

The Gemgefouw College.


In my movement through Kentucky attended,
few days since, the annual commencement at
Georgetown College, located at Georgetown, a few
miles north OF Lexington, now, and for some eight
or ten years, under the Presidency of Rev. Howard
Malcolm, ID. ID.
1t was truly delightful to witness here IN the
West, commencement IN good New England
style. A very spacious church was crowded with
a very genteel and intelligent looking audience.
There were thirteen oratlons from the same num-
Der of graduates; all respectable in matter, and
quite above medlocrty in delivery.
The institution has three fine edifices, on high
level compass OF Is acres; | was kindly shown
through the rooms, and certainly never before saw
so neat a College. The library, phllosophca Al ap.
paraus, chemical lecture room, and museum OF
natural history, are far beyond what could be ex-
pected in comparatively new country.
The Presidential question is exciting the good
people here powerfully. Powell, Crittenden,
Leicher, &c, traversing the State, and making
courthouse speeches in every part of 1t. The
democrats are full of confidence that they can
carry their candidate for Governor; but the wings
will probably succeed, as hitherto. General Taylor
will get the undivided vote Of the wing party In
this State.

Return the Twiggs Rifles Mechanical Prospcri-
tn Of Baitimore-A Patent Steam Pump-Con-
tracts for Southern Machinery, &c
We are, at last, to have sight of the genuine
Baltimore volunteers, fresh from the tented
field, their clothing covered with tears and
rents, their boards unshom, and hair and
mustache a la Mcrtcan. The Twiggs Ri1emen
are TO arrive here tomorrow evening, In full trim
having declined to accept their discharges in New
Orleans. BY the way, this company, under the
gallant Capt. Taylor, who also participated In the
storming of Monterey, as a sergeant, has been IN
constant and active service in Mexico, routing
guerias, carrying the mails, and performing es-
con duty through ihe country, having takea
the place of Walkers rangers, alter his melancholy
death.
The mechanics and machInists of Baltimore are
prospering beyond all precedent; large orders from
the South having been received by almost every
estabhshment-englnes, boilers, steam pumps,
sugar machinery, cotton presses, and every variety
OF article being in the course of construction. By
the way, a steam pump has been invented, and put
in operation DUNG the past week, that will super
s, de every other steam pump In use, being very
simple in construction, requiring but little power,
and throwing constant stream, fully equal, 1t not
superior, TO Croton fire-plug. The one in opera
tic is OF two horse power, and is capable OF be-
ing increased TO any power required. The inven.
tor. Mr.. George w Fulton, has taken out patent;
ard has already received several orders for his ma
chine. which, engine and all, does not weigh more
than 500 pounds

enclose a copy of the Territorial bill, as amen
ded by the select committee appointed to investi-
ga'eIt. You will perceive tina, the sketch for
warded by telegraph yesterday, embraced all the
notifications which recommended. The
ground taken by the committee, although IN a
great measure unexpected, will not be unaccepta-
BILE. The question of slavery, applied to Oregon,
was mere abstraction, introduced for the purpose
OF making political capita, and unnecessarily
brought forward to agi,aie the public mind. On
the other hand, MIR. Calhoun's views-that is, if
he shadowed them forth in his speech-were ultra
and abstruse In the extreme. Ii is now pretty ge-
morally conceded, indeed there is no proposition
more apparent, that ultra men, of no matter what
party, cannot be trusted. A man who allows hi )
PASSIONS To get the better OF his judgment, loses
sight oil the justice OF a case his mind becomes
warped, and he Is incapable OF viewing the subj ct
before HIM with that calmness and unpreJudice,
without which, there is no security against going
astray Mr.. Calhoun's ultraism, Is not, however
without beneficial results-it chsck-mates the vio-
lence OF his opponents, and IN the end tends more
perhaps, TO bring about middle result, than would
the efforts OF the most moderate advocate. IL Is
altogether probable that the bill, as amended, will
pass the Senate easily, although tits believed Mr..
Dix, and one or two others. are opposed to 1t.
From what TRANSFERRED this morning, II would
appear that each member of the committee has
b. en- Influenced In supporting the amendments
from totally different considerations. This Is of
tntilng importauce-ihe result is what the public
look to. 1t matters little whether Mr.. Calhoun
supported them because they let him down gently
from the high position he took-or that they OBJ
tanned Mr. Phelps concurrence in consequences of
their as eflectualy excluding slavery in Oregon,
If the Wimot provso were inserted.
1t is thought that in the House some opposition
may be manifested, and an effort Will very likely
be made 10 strike out New Mexico and California
from The bill. This, however, would be rather
too bsrelaccd. 1t would not be acting IN good
eon, but, like drowning man, clings frantically to
what remains.
On lhv whole, am inclined to believe that the
bill Ill pass both houses of Congress, Substantial
cannot pass in any other form) butt would be vain
to hope that l. SIS than week two will be wasted
in discussing for the thousandth time all the pros
and coas connected with this most delicate sub
Ject OMEGA.

Isaac Higgins, formerly the proprietor of an ex-
tensive drug store, but recently Of Incorporate

of the city yesterday.
The commencement of the High School this
morning, attracted splendid array of youth and
beauty to the saloon of the Museum building.
There were not less than twenty-five hundred per-
sons congregated there, the greater portion OF
whom were ladies'. The essays delivered by the
graduates were of high order of merit, and with
the fine music from the orchestra under the lead
Of Mr. Cross, amply rewarded the audience for
