Cow. PERRY AND CAPT. HUNTER.-A
Washington letter-writer says Com. Perry
will shortly be subjected to Court of In
auiry, growing out of his treatment Of
Capt. Hunter. 1t appears that Com.
Perry never reported to the Navy Depart
ment the proceedings of the Court Mar
tial before which he had Capt. Hunter
tried for his gallant feat at Alvarado, but
in his usua! report praises all the officers
except Capt. Hunter, "whom he felt
obliged Immediately TO arrest and try
before a Court Martial" This writer
adds: Capt. Hunter is OF course incensed
at this treatment, and has taken occasion.
in the plainest Saxon English, to express
20 the Commodore, in writing, his high
appreciation of his superior's conduct and
sense of Justice Upon the strength Of
these letters, Com. Perry demanded that
Capt Hunter should be tried for disresl
pect; but Gen. Taylor taking rather a
fancy for Capt, Hunters trough and
ready" style Of writing and doing things,
reversed the application, by ordering u
Court of Inquiry on the Commodore.

DAYS sooner to witness one of Vesuvius
grand eruptions-wmch has been the
largest ever known. We have been to-
day to see the lava, &c, aud it is most
wonderful. A new crater has been formed,
and the emission of lava was so immense,
that it has extended distance OF seven
miles, by one and half TO three miles
wide, and about thirty feet high. Alter
descending the mountain, it has gone tor
ward one and half miles wide, and tliir-
ty feet high for distance OF FIVE miles az
least, and forms an emtankment like that
of railroad raised over plain, covering
thirty-two houses and one or two churches
and destroying, of course. an immense
number of vineyards and farms. The dl.
rcction was Oh the opposite side OF Ma
pies. The sight must have been most
grand; and while It lasted-say five days
the railroad cars run all night to csrrs
people to see it. Although the trembling
of houses at Naples was sensibly felt
during the eruption, there was not the

THEORY OF MARRIAGE.-There was a
merry fellow supped with Plato two thou.
sand years ago. and the conversation turn
ed upon marriage and wives. He said
.he had learned from a very early tradi-
ton that man was created male and fe-
male, with duplicate set of limbs, and
performed his locomotive functions with
a rotary movement as wheel; that ne
became in consequence so excessively
irsolent that Jupiter, indignant split him
iD two. Since that time each runs through
the world in quest of the other half. If
the original halves meet they are very
loving couple; otherwise they are subject
TO a miserable, scoiding, peevish and un'
congeniaI matrimony. The search, he
said, was rendered difficult, for the reasori
that one man alighted upon a half that
did not belong TO him, another did nee.
essar;ly the same, till the whole affair was
thrown into irretrievable confusion"

Reply Of Mr.. Smith.

w AsHINGToN, April y, 1850
DEAR SIR--I havo-tte hotror 10 ac,
knowledge the receipt Of your lettes of
the Sth inst, and reply to it with great
pleasure. New Mexico is an exceedingly
mountainous country. Santa Fe itself be-
ing twice as high as the highest point OF
the Alleghanies, and nearly all the land
capable of cultivation is of equal height,
though some Of the valleys have less alti-
tude above the sea. The country is cold.
Its general agricultural products are wheat
and corn. and such vegetables as grow in
the Northern States OF this Union j, is
entirely unsuited for slave labor. Labor
is exceeding abundant and cheap. 1t may
he hired for three or four dollars a mouth,
IN quantity quite sufficient for Carrying on
all the agriculture of the Territory
There Is 40 cultivation, and there is not
suHclency OF water TO lrrigate all the
land. AS to the existence at presen: of
slavery iii New Mexico, it is the general
understanding that it has been altogether
alb ollshed by the laws OF Mexico; but we
have no established tribunals which have
pronounced as yet what the law Of the
land in this respect is. 1t is universally
considered, however, that the Territory
is altogether free Territory. I know of
no persons i'll the country VIII are treated
as slaves. except such as may be servants
to gentlemen visiting or passing through
the country. Imay add that the strongest
feeling against slavery universally pre-
walls through the whole Territory, and
suppose it quite impossible to convey it
there and maintain it by any means what
ever.
| have the honor TO he. with regard,
your obedient servant,

SOUTHERN UosPITALITY.--Mr. Story, of
Duchess county, in a speech in the Nav
York Assembly lately. on the slavery res
olutions, remarked as follows:
Sir, there are perhaps no people on
earth-certainly there are none IN this
country. who exhibit in all their inter-
course and in their lives. larger scale of
all the characteristics that enoble human
nature, than the people of the South
There are no people with whom It has

their fellow men i'll misfortune and suffer.
ing are proverbial-and all who have
ever set foot on the other side of Mason
and Dixon's line, will vouch for the Truth
of every word have said on this subject.
And sir, let me say here, that ii the South
is excited on this subject, it Is not with
out cause. This is a question of great deli
cacy and much feeling there. 1t directly
reaches their interests, and is regarded by
them as an invasion of their rights. The
continued agitation of the question, and
the interference with population by
which they are surrounded, produces irri-
tation, and is in itself exciting. With the
North it is a sentiment, at least all OF il
that is not party agitation; with the South
il is an Immediate practical, impending
danger 1t is to be regretted that feeling
and passion should be exhibited Ill either
section--but the South have an apology
for It which the North have not--and al
example of forbearauce, Cancellation ano
moderation may we'll come from the latter
There can be no doubt that had this for
bearance been exhibited by the North
years ago, slavery would have been Sc
many years in advance of its present stage
of gradual abolition. All know the causes
that have been at work at the South, ant
which have only been retarded IN theiI
operation by Northern interposltion, tc
produce that result; and that among
these causes was and still is, the mos
powerful of all impulses self-nteie,t.-
But every man acquainted with human
nature mus. see and know, without look
ing at the results of experience, that at
tack and denunciation are not only not the
best persuasives, but the most dlrec
modes of provoking resistance to result
which even self-iuterest, if left to itself
would have produced. ! might adduce
many illustrations Of this truth, which my
own intercourse with the Southern people
would enable me to produce. But this
ia a truth which needs no illustration te
