The next day, ike the true daughter o'
a Yankee, she tried the thing out -
She tough, the cloth by the yard, and

French ROBBERS ARREsTED.-On the
arrival of the ship Saint Nicholas from
Havre, at New York three robbers, fugi
tives from French Justice, were arrested
The Tribune says:
The names of the felons are: Nicholas
Viermaitre, aged 50; Frederick Coils,
alias Denman, aged %; Francoise Ber-
nard aged %. Their offence is the rob-
berry, in the month of July last, of the
Hotel Of the Countess de Caremont, in
Paris, of furniture, plate, &c. to the
value of fifty thousand francs. A large
portion of the furniture was sold by them,
but the plate and some of the furniture
was shipped on board the Saint Nicholas;
eight cases of furniture, clocks, Candida
bras, &C., and one box of jewelry were
found yesterday Coils, alias Denman, is
an Englishman Viermatre is French
man, and the woman Bernard, is VS.
mistress. On boarding the ship officer
Hays at once charged Denman with the
crime, and he confessed with very little
hesitation. The two others (through DR..
Doane, health officer, who acted as inter-
preter,) denied at first; the woman was
then taken into state room and ques-
toned; she still denied. but on learing
that the Englishman had owned up to
the accusation, she reluctantly confessed.
The prisoners were then taken to the
Tombs, where Justice Osborne comitted
them until they may be taken back to
France.

FRIGHTENING PROSPECTS.

BRIGHTNING PROSPECTS.
'17Ere late mail brought as the cheering
news of the passage of4the Bills for the
admission of Cali sfosraias for the ofganiza-
ton Aof the Territories of Utah 'amd
Nes0 Merico, for the settlement OF the
sTe1as boundary question, and for@the
restoration Of .fMgitice slaues. This is
indeed glorious news, and deserves more
to be CONNIE inorated by bonfires and
il,umnations than the announcement OF
the defeat of hostile army. True: no
foreign feesahas BEEN repelled--no splen-
die military achievement demands the
gfatnIations of the people. But the
councils of the nation, long distracted
and torn by intestinal discord, and ex-
hitting; the fearful conflict of sectional
interests and prejudices, have vanquished
themselves, and exhibited political and
moral triumph far brighter and more ell
du able than was ever won upon the
la llc-llCl Iii wa, VIC Oc'CfO@iOSS W
dar may be retrieved tomorrow; but
deeat in this case, we fear would have
ben irretrievable.
The leaders in this conflict were in
telectual giants. True to their country,
and ktaeir al1aoleecouasts,y, no danger de-
tered them. No abuse within the halls
of Congress, no Misrepresentation with
out, checked them in their noble efforts,
or caused them for moment to faulter
in their determination to preserve the
Union
Webster, Cass, Clay and Foote, with
otler magnanimous spirits who stood by
them in the hour of peril, deserve and
will receive the praises and lasting graft
tude of the country, and the present
stormy session of Congress, now about
to close in brightness, will be looked back
to as the era in the history of our Govern
ment when the liberties won by arms in
the revolution, were gloriously and blood
lessly maintained, through their darkest
struggle, by intellectual energy and .patrl-
otic tforbearance.
"A time fraught with so much danger
to our institutions and to our Union may
never again occur. The clouds which
have long threatened us with their ven
geance have, at length, burst above us:
and are rolling harmless away, and the
sun of Freedom long shrouded in dark
ness ;and gloom, again sheds upon the
land the full light of his unclouded orb
When we first saw the Compromise
Bill dismembered, we feared for the re-
suit. Weapprehended that if dlsunonists
and tiisorganizers could ,distroy the bill
in its entire form, they could do so more
easilv, when severed. We are glad to
find ourselves disappointed, we truly re-
ioice, .as the whole land will with us,
that the Bills have passed; and we CRATE
fully accord to the present Congress, as
the whole land will with US, eour deepest
