The New York Herald, speaking OF the trade
and commerce between the United States and
Turkey, gives the following history of the Turk
lsA Ambassador daily expected to arrive
in this country on board the U. s. ship Erie:
"Ihis ambassador is Amin Bey, of the Sultan's
admiralty, who will come in company with his
dragoman, Mr.. Nicham, his seal bearer, or pri-
vate secretary, Hassan Aga, and our consul, Mr.
Brown, who has been absent from this country
for thirteen years. Amin Bey is the first func.
:ionary OF the Sublime Porte who has ever visit
ed the United States, and the nature of the mis-
sion is complimentary to our people. This emf
nent man has filled other missions of importance
and confidence on the part of his sovereign He
was sent to the lmaum of Muscat, and other Ma
hommedan powers on the Persian Gulf and,
more recently, was charged with delicate mis-
sion on the Hungarian frontier, dnring the late
war for independence, by that gallant, noble,
but unfortunate nation. Couscentouslv and
strictly maintaining the faith of his fathers he
lsyet liberal and intelligent, and, being himself
naval officer, is prepared to profit by, as well
as to preceIve, the superior condition of naval
affairs in the United States. He has the rank

them that the citizens ofthe United States are
people with whom the merchants Of Turkey. as
wen as the official powers, may havo an cniarg-
ed and liberal commercial Intercourse
The Herald states that the visit of the Turkish
Ambassador to the United States, is connected
with the investigation of our ability to furnish
ships, steamers, machinery, and munitions ofwar

ASTICIrATED ADVENT OF 5000 HuyGAR1As's
Alexander Lukacs, member ofthe late rcyo.
lutionary congress Of Hungary, says the New
York Express, arrived in this city few days ago,
and leaves today for the purpose of purchasing
large tract Of land in the west from 10000 to
100, coo acres, for the use of some 5000 of his
countrymen, mostly farmers, who are preparing
to emlgrate from central Hungary. The propos-
ed colony will probably be in Illinois or Iowa.
colony such as Mr. Lukacs contemplates estab-
fishing, would be an honor to any country, and
we wish the brave Hungarians every success in
this land of the free.

On the 18th ult., Gen. Cass visited Baltimore
for the purpose of being presented with splen-
did cane, as mark Of the esteem in which his
civil services are held by the Democracy of Bal
timore. The ceremony Of presentation-the &C.
casion, and the cause.-the speeches of presen-
tation, and the reply-were all calculated to
rouse the enthusiasm Of the audience into an
outburst of applause for the patriotic devotion of
the man who was the first to face the heresy of
Provsoism-the first to proclaim the rights of
the States, and duty of Congress-the first to
offer himself victim to misguided popular ca
price. We regret that our space compels us to
be more chary Of remarks BETTING the occasion
and our own sentiments. We shall endeavor to
do better by presenting to our readers the speech
Of Gen. Cass, delivered upon the occasion.

POPULAR VOTE OF MIssoURI.-The popular
vote Of Missouri stands thus; Wings 30,34O,
Democrats 23,945; Bentonites 1925.
This calculation is based upon the vote given
for congressman and shows most emphatically
that Benton's appeal has not been sustained
that Of the popular vote to which his appeal was
specially directed, he got but little over one
fourth to back his lordly assumptions to override
all -power-and overawc all opinion.
He is neither sustained by the people nor by
his own party, and yet he, proclaims from his
seat at Washington, that the appeal has been
decided in his favor, and that all he worked for
has come to pass. He has been used to pow
er that he clings to it in imagination like the
lunntic who thinks himself monarch and Won

HAY Passive would call attention to the
advertisement of Mr.. Williamm. a. Jones, in
another column in relation to the purchase of
hay. This enterprise if properly and literally
encouraged by our farmers, will be greatly to
their advantage by opening a market for the
ready sale of all the hay they can produce.
The establishment of this Press supplies
want which has been hitherto felt in this town,
as it prevents the necessity Of peddling big load
Of hay from one COW shed to another, and losing
whole days time with man, team and wag-
on.
Whoever peddles hay after this, must be fond
ofpeddling.

Mr., Chairman, let mo say, in conclusion,
that Providence seems to have opened to us a
rare field for the acquisition of true national
greatness. If we properly appreciate and en-

destiny Of this Republic, we shall become the
Emancipators of not only our own enslaved

our part would promote the disenthralment

we finally should meet and fraternally embrace
our British brethren on the Eastern Continent,

proclamation ola common and glorious aim.

A RIVAL TO JENNY L1ND--The Paris
correspondent Of The Missouri Republican
gives the following account of a new mu-
steal debutante in that city:
In late letter, l mentioned young negress
who had been singing with great eclat at
some private concert in the Sale pc Herr.
She was assisted by some OF the first vocal
and instrumental performers of this city,
and in spite of the high price of the tickets
item lrancs) the hall was crowded almost to
sufocation--it seemed SO odd, even to the
French, that person with colored skin
could do anything superior. But the con-
cert Of Dona Maria Martinez (she calls hers
self was a complete triumph. She sang
some of the most difficult pieces from eel
ebrated operas with rare success, and her
Andelusian ballads were encored several
times. Braves resounded from all parts OF
the house, and flowers without number
were showered down upon the fair song
stsress. The manager of the Italian opera
has already made overtures to her for an
engagement for the next season, but she has
referred him 10 her proteciress, the queen
Of Spain, who, it is thought, will not give
her permission, as she wishes TO retain
Dona Maria Martinez for the royal opera
at Madrid alone. The papers speak OF
her as "the beautiful negress', and proph-
ecy for her as great reputation as that OF
Jenny Lind.

The Pacific News of June list contains the
following:
THE FARELLoNs.- excursion to these
Islands by the pilot boat Rialto, on Tuesday last,
seems to have been most pleasing OCCASION
These islands are about twenty five miles out
from the harbor, and are apparently formed by a
volcanic upheava from the bed of the ocean.
The largest one contains about twenty acres
1t was once occupied by the Russians, whose
tenements are yet there in an almost perfect state.
The vlsiters found the place occupied by myriads
of sea fowls OF every known kind, and some
with which they were unacquainted; among 9TH
er strange birds, they described the web-footed
parrot, which has the outlines Of a parrot with
the foot of a water fowl.
The most wonderful occupants there are the
kings of beasts-the sea lions. These animals
have congregated there to the number of thou
sands. They are of the hugest class of four
footed beasts, weighing between two and three
three thosand pounds! They have the resem.
blance OF lion in conformation, including the
name, aud roar in a similar manner, but much
louder. When the party landed these animals
seemed to be curious to observe the intruders.
and were rather more familiar than their appear
arance would seem to desire. On being approach
ed most of them took to the water; several of
them, however, turned and appeared ready to
wait fol combat.
This seems to be spot where they congregate
to rear their young, as over two hundred help
less cubs (f they can be so called) were there
left to the tender mercies of the invaders. This
was the apparent reason of their roaring and of
various othel actions expressing great solicitude
Three or four of the old ones were shot, after
some difficulty, for their large bodies could only
be penetrated by the largest sized balls. Such
trophies were bro't homs worthy of notice, which,
with full account of the voyage, we are prom
Used.
We are glad to learn, that the party annexed
these islands to the United States, as the first of
