that the whole population had a knowledge
of.What was to be attempted. The pre-

;un attempt to execute the plan. The pro.
jectors SUea the insurrcction were either
blind TO the effects of their plan, or orsec-
ing them, must have been utterly reckless
as to consequences which would result to
their own, countrymen: for if the attempt
had been made, there is not an officer in
the army, not excepting the commander
in-chief himself who could have restrain
ed5the troops from sncking the city: Dur.
ing the night, Lieutenant Baker ofthe 5tli
Indiana regiment, commanding putrole,
came in sight Of two carts near the Piazza
de Torro, irHahe southern part of the city,
one of which, containing one hundred
stand of arms, he captured; the other he
was unable to come up with before il was
placed in concealment. Whether Gen.
Scott has the names Of the parties who ori-
ginated the plot, or not, do not know; but
it is pretty we'll understood that Tho Chief
conspirators are among the soldiers of the

INDIA COTToN.

The English are making renewed efforts
TO forward the cultivation Of cotton in India
at a late meeting Of the Manchester Com
mcrcial Association it was ascertained that
there is tract Of country in the district of
Conbatorc containing one and a quarter mil
lion Of acres adapted to the cultivation of cot
ton as good as that of New Orleans. A
sample Of the cotton raised on these lands
was produced and pronounced by competent
Judges to be equal to the American. The
Association recommended the continued cul-
turc of this cotton, raised, as it was, from
American seed, and the trial of its growth
and produce oh low grounds, near the coast,
which more resembled the native homo of the
plant. The East India Company support and
countenance the enterprise. This has the
appearance of more success than any former
measure. 1t is expected that the Co.nhatore
tract will send TO the English market IOO,-
COO bales, annually, raised from American
seed. There is no doubt that the English
will use every effort to become independent

STEAM COMMUNICATION.

The merchants Of Baltimore and Phila-
dclphin propose TO establish lines of steam
packet communication between their sew
eral cities and Charleston, and measures
have been taken to effect these Objects
Speed in transportation & security against
,hednngcrs Of the sea are, we suppose, the
principal objects in establishing the pro-
posed lines, which will be attained by the
construction of strong and sca-worhy
steamships and not steamboats, as formerly,
the use of which latter has repeatedly
caused appalling loss of life on the desert
and cngulphing waters Of the ocean.

Whenever men fall in the performance of
heroic actions, hravcly upholding the flag of
their country, and vndicating from dishonor
the national esclItcheon, inGtinct summons 10
the bourden duty OF rerpetuating their names
and comrncnora' "s their patriotism. They
who have rallied IS the across fire" swept
past, and with strong hands and loyal hearts
have borne their cOuntry's s'nailed colors"
where the battle-god played fierccst, and the
battlc-tide pressed hardest, here found a
nations heart their Mausoeun and a nations
tears their funeral tribute. Past times may:
claim storicd urn and monumental marble,
mountains carved into barbarc monuments of
sceptred sway, and brazen statues constructed
from battles spcliatnd trophies; hut prouder
far is Americas Republican memorial. The
laurel enwrealhod with cypress, the nations
heart bowed down at the hearthstone of the
afflicted and desolate. From the starry throng
of those whoin Mexico lost their lives upon
the bloody and brilliant fields of war, we may
be allowed to select The youthful hero, whose
name heads our article. True to tho memories
OF his manhood and race, he was among the
first to respond to the tapping drum and bugle
blast, and enrol himsclfin that volunteer band

iul i'll friendship generous i'll sentiment, manly
in feeling aud brave in spirit, he was watched
as he moved from among lis with the cndear
ing solicitude and yearning sympathy Of
friends. Having just emerged from the
portols of the College, crowned with the
unbought and loyal love of his class and fri
ends, he had glorious career to run. AS he
rallied around old Kershaw,s banner erected
over the grave of DeKalb, elastic in spirits and
rcsplendent in manhood, we knew the warrior
gage was his,that his step would be where hon.
or was, and only supplicatcd that the bloody
tide in battle might roll past and not engulf him
in its sanguinary torrent. Exemplary in discip-
line, devoted to his duties, punctilious in hon
or, his warrior friends point to him as the mod.
cl Of a man and soldier. Worn down by fatigue,
wasted by disease, and exhausted by his unin-
termtted duties, when the bugle summoned
him to the tented field he was filter for the
hospital than the fierce shock of battle. But to
rest upon his shield, when the banner of the
foo Haunted in his face, was more then his
proud spirit could brook. Like the princely
eagle, that swoops from his lofty eyre to bear

THE TELEGRAPH.

In a short time the telegraph will be in
operation from Boston 10 New Orleans
through Charleston, and communication
will be intercbungcd between these dis
tant cities oflhe Union with the rapidity
of lightning. 1t is strange that the mind
of man should invent the means Of trans
uniting with such certainty and velocity
the substantial meaning of material words,
when it is considered that the transmits
sion ofthe words in the form of letter
from Boston TO Charleston requires four
days, while the conveyance Of telegraph
ic communication between the same
cities will consume only few minutes.
The invention Of the telegraph is one of
the greatest ever accomplished or con-
ceived by the mind Of man. 1t forms o
now chain 10 bind together in the bonds of
federal amity the wide extended members
of our union. In conncxion with rail
roads the intercourse established by them
will do much to moderate many local
preiudiccs occasioned either by ignorance
or want Of association. In many parts of
our country the white posts Of the tele-
graph stand by the side Of the railroad
like the standards of peace pointing out
the pathway and procluiming the sover-
eighty of civilization. The telegraph
and railroads arc eminently favorable to
and. favored by peace. They supply
carly information and quick despatch, two
most important means for seeuringa coun-
try against war and invasion and rcpcl-
ling it when prcscnt> These supplies
are also Of primary importance to- COM
mcrcc; and thus these inventions are the
means Of the increase Of civilization and
consequent happiness to man. In these
things the benefits Of science arc most evi.
dent Thcy arc some Of the results of
the dissemination Of Knowledge and the
cultivation Of. intellectual power among
men. Their rapid extension over the
whole country is a remarkable evidence
ofthc avidty with which our country
men seize upon whatever tcndsto dcvcl-
opc its resources
