G%The, Message Bird states that the
bargain between Jenny Lind and Mr.. Barnum
is not yet positively concluded-time having
been granted the agent of Mr.. Barnum-to
confer with his principal, in consequence of
the unexpected amount of money ($3O0O0O)
which Jenny required to be deposited in the
hands of Barring & Brothers, as security for
the intactitude of the engagement. The
Message Bird says that Mr.. Barnum is in a
quandary, not knowing whether to go or re
cede. Soft is not certain that we shall hear
the Nightingale MARBLE, after all, However,
we depend on Mr.. Barnum's liberaIity-and

the Engineer, was found in little yard in
the rear of the building, which seems to in
dicate that he feared the danger and stepped
out to avoid it or he might have been blown
through the window by the explosion. The

little injured. The body was less mutilated
than almost any one found. The remains Of
of the 81 bodies found are still unidentified,
and six persons known to have been in the

From Mexico.

By the arrival here on Sunday, of the brig
Water Witch, Capt Brown, from Vera Cruz
the Sth inst, we have received files of the
Monitor and the Trait d. Union TO the I'd
INST, and the Eco del Concrete and the Lo-
comOtor to the 9th inst. inclusive.
Gen. Hernandez has been obliged by IN
disposition to resign his post as Commandant
General of Chapas and Tobasco. Gen.
Tomas Marin has been appointed in his
place.
The city of Tampco is at length to be
supplied with drinking water, brought perma-
nently into the place from the neighborng
rivers. A commission has been appointed to
affect that object, at the head of which is
Gen. La Vega. and the expense is to be COW
cred by the application to the work Of a por-
ton of the port dues.
The Trait d. Union of the 23d uIt says
that the mines in Mexico have never been so
productive as lately. The States of Guiana
juato and Puebla daily become the theatre of
new discoveries and new explorations. Gold
silver and mercury abound in various places
In Oaiaca the mineral districts are again put
under labor, and measures have been taken
to develop the resources of thai favored por-
ton of Mexico
The Indians still continue their destructive
incursions. Lately, however, they received
two signal checks in the States of Durango
and New Leon, where the Mexicans attacked
them and killed 50, rescuing some prisoners
and capturing Il considerable number of cat
tie.
The Trait d Union of the Goth ult. says
that run1ors Were then in circulation that the
charges brought against Santa Anna by the
Senator Gamboa were to be Immediately sub
mitted to a grand jury; that the voluntary ex-
lie of jamaica, ardenly desires to return TO
his country; that his impotence is so great
that he will not perhaps await the decision
of justice. but will take the country by sur
prise by Unexpectedly disembarking; that his
friends are actively employed in his INTEREST,"
that movement will burst forth at all points,

Monday.-Paris has been IN a state of
seige in consequence of serious disturbances
created by the mob of Rue st. Martin. The
police authorities came to cut down certain
trees OF liberty planted during the revolution.
1t appears from facts, which are, however,
conflicting, that when the order was given for
the destruction of these last emblems Of the
liberty of France, large crowds gathered
around, and the police acting under the or
ders of the Executive, proceeded to cut them
down. The people resisted AID dispersed the
police; but strong military body advancing
at the time, the mob was put to flight with
the loss of several, while the troops were
hardly molested. At the latest dates ak was
quiet, with no fears Of further disturbances
The Moniteur attributes the whole affair to a

government ofthe country into his own hands

A man may have virtue, capacity, and
good conduct, and yet be insupportable.
The air and manner, which we neglect
as little things, are frequently what the
world judges us by, and makes them de-
eide for or against us There are many
little matters Of personal bearing and
conduct, which must be managed dis
creeily if we wish to be at all agreeable
with our fellow creatures. 1t is in vain
to say that such man, though as dirty
as pig, is good and able man, aud
ought, therefore. TO be delighted in. His
goodness and his ability are very well
IN their own way but 'lwere as possible

thinking on the frosty Caucasus. rs 70
endure the personal juxta-posIion Of
such man upon mere consideration
Of abstract properties. For all the Pur-
poses of personal intercourse the per-
sona qualifications are the prime consid-
eratlon. Not that il is necessary that
every man should be extremely elegant.
or an adept in the rules which constitute
good breeding. The want of positively
good qualities is Of less consequence
than the possession Of positively bad
ones. The most fasldious will find no
difficulty in enduring a man who is lit
lie skilled in the nice lormaiies of the
drawing-room and dinner table. Ifsuch
man is unob,rusiVe, he will pass very
well, though it is certainly desirable that
all should be To a certain extent pres
pared TO act according to those laws,
which the mass of refined society have
found to be conducive to their happiness.
But no man can expect to be much liked,
who is addicted to certain habits Of Il
conspicuous kind, the direct tendency
of which is TO inspire painful feelings in
those around him
