The Philadel phia papers record the death,
at Naples, on the 22d Of February, OF
Charles Carroll Bayard, Passed Midshp'
man in the United States Navy. lie was
son Of the Hon. Rel ard II. Bayard,
formerly United States Senator from the
State OF Delaware. Being on a cruise in
the Mediterranean the vessel to which he
was attached stopped at Naples, and he
obtained permission to visit Mount. Vesu-
vius. While al the crater of the volcano
an eruption suddenly took place, and some
OF the stones thrown out by the convulsion
fell upon Mr.. Bayard's right arm, sha,ter-
ing it so badly as TO rouse his death. We
sincerely condole with his bereaved rela-
lives and friends under this grea, aflliclon.
The eruption alluded to was the most
brilliant and tremendous that has been wit
messed for many years. 1t was, moreover,
remarkably sudden, as none of the usual
signs had preceded it. a letter states that
the mountain literally roared with the ef-
forts it made to disgorse itself. The noise
was like the firing Of cannon at sea, and a,
every discharge there was thrown up a
mass of lava ard rocks which al night look
ed like balls OF fire. \ guide, who was on
the mountain at the time, says:
"ln the middle Of the mountain, towards
Sommo, IN an instant a grolto was formed
full of stalacite OF salt and marine SALT
] was about TO gather some portion Of II
when the groto began to open as il under
the influence Of an earthquake. and, as |
0ed. found that my clothes were burnt
upon my back. Had | not quckened my
speed my life would have been sacrificed -,
for in the same moment there issued forth
a current oI lava forty palms in breadth;
whence, as also from the crater, were
thrown up hombs and Iigh,nngs. In ten
minutes the lava extended to the foot of
Somma, forming most wonderful and
beautiful scene"

| ANOTHER MAMMOTH CAvE.-A Mi
waukIe correspondent of the Hartford
Courant gives this description Of West
ern'cave:
"It has long heen known that near Mad.
ison, the capital of our State, and ninety
miles west OF this place. there was cavern
oil considerable extent; hut it has never been
extensively explored, until couple Of
weeks ago. Then party of five men,
headed by llowel Lumley, Esq. MEM
be! of our late LEGISLATURE, and, as am
informed. a man Of reliable yeraciIy, ar
ranged for a full exploration Of the cave;
taking with them ralions for weeks abb
sence, canoe, and other needful provis-
ions. Asr. l.. has just published IN the
Madison Argus letter of three columns.
detailing generally the adventures, and dis
coverles Of the party. II is dIstressInely
meagre as TO distances which the party
travelled, height and breadth of this i'm
mense cavern, or the general character Of
the rock and other material which com'
pose il. But some facts which he states
are. however, sufficiently startling, wonder.
ful and even sublime.
"Ihe party were in the cave near five
days, during which they were constantly
progressing, except so much time as was
necessary to recruit their exhausted ener.
eies, and when, after exploring in all direc-
,ious, they finally emerged from the cave,
i, was by another opening which they dis.
covered, some miles distant from that by
which they entered. Mr.. l.. speaks of the
extraordinary vastness of the cavern at diff
itrent points; its great width, in one place
he supposed the height 10 be foil seventy
feet; his impressions is that i, extends un-
der much of the two counties of Dane and
Iowa, and he is enthusiastic when he res
fers 10 the novelties, curiosi,ies, and grea,
mineral wealth which abound in tins mam-
moth Of a cavern.
"At one point on their route they trav-
ersed over ard among large masses aud
blocks which they supposed TO be rock, but
which proved, on examination, to be gale
na lead ore CT fine quality; this was spread
over surface of three miles. The party
concluded there could not be less than 200.
600 tons Of it. Fine specimens Of copper
ore were discovered, and at one point elev-
en- pounds OF native silver were found
CRYSTALS we're abundant. and calcareous,
staIuctles and s'alasmles. of large size,
abundant; OF the two latter, one or two
immense labyrlnlls were discovered. Dur
ing this sublerranean journey, the party
came to very considerable waterfall, the
roar of which, long before they reached it,
had attracted their notice. AT the loot OF
this they discovered lake Of considerable
dimensions, and which in their canoe they
partially explored. The greatest depth they
discovered On sounding this lake, was
thir,y-seven fee, and four inches"

AMERICAN SOLDIERS,

Sound sense and plain truth (says the
Baltimore American) distinguish the an
nexed article, copied from the editorial
column of the Richmond Republican:
"It is a fact that, while Hungarian and
other refugees are invited TO settle on
American land, and while Senators of the
United States con'end which shall go farth.
est IN voting farms to the soldiers of other
counties. to widows of officers and soldiers
oil The United States army are not entitled
to plcayune in silver, or an acre OF land
from that Government in whose service
their husbands and fathers toiled, fought,
and died, unless perchance they died on the
field Of battle.
"Why living foreigners should be entitled
to greater sympathy from the American
Government, than living American women
who are the survivors and representatives
OF brave American soldiers, is a question
which we confess ourselves unable 10 an.
swer. The Good Book has empha,ically
declared, and every wise and generous
heart will endorse the declaration, "He
who provideth not for his own is worse
than an infdel." We are willing and de-
sirous 10 provide refuge for the oppressed
sons of liberty from every cline, bu, justice,
nature, gratitude, and wisdom all dictate
that we should first do justice TO those of
our own family.
"Fhe mere circumstance that an officer
or soldier dies on the field of battle, consti.
futes no evidence of peculiar merit nor
exclusive claim upon the gratitude of the
Government. Washington, Greene, Ham.
lllon, and other illustrious heroes survived
the Revolution; Generals Scott, Jackson,
Harrison, and others-Commodores Hull,
Perry, Decatur. Porter, McDonough, and
nearly every other iIluslrious naval COM
mander. survived the last war with Eng
land; Taylor. Scott, Worth, Wool, and
host of other military heroes, passed un.
scathed through the wars of Florida and
Mexico. What sense or justice is there in
rule which would deprive the widows of
such men Of pension upon their death,
simply because they We're not cut down BY
