ROUTE BETWEEN WAsHINGroS AND New York.
The New York Express, in copying article from
this paper respecting the delays and charges on
the route between Washington and New York,
adds:
"If the railroad companies between New York
and Washington would only connect in Philade-
phia and Baltimore, and go on, not stop, and
ticket baggage through, not making everybody
pay heavy porterages, they would do themselves
much service, and the public more II il tho worst
organized route in tho Union now; but it will be
remedied soon, if not voluntarily. in part by the

A SronM.-A violent storm of wind and rain,
with occasional thunder, visited this place on Sun
day forenoon and veered round to the south south
east, and on Sunday night was at its height Yes
terday were informed, by passenger from
Smithville, that brig with signals of distress fly
ing was ashore on the outer shoals She is repre-
scented to have lost her mainmast to be laden with
a cargo Of molasses estimated at three hundred
hogsheads, and is said to be the British brig Evers-
dale, Capt. Erwin, from Matanzas, bound to Hall
fax, N. s. The crew have left tho wreck, with
three feet water in the hold. The ship recently ar
rived at Smithville with United States troops, rode
out the gale with the loss Of a topmast.
The steamer due from Charleston on Monday
did not leave that port. The storm came from the
south, and was doubtless more violent farther south
than here Wilmington IN. CO. Herald, 9th.

your lovely town again before leave for Wash

have hitherto been, not merely as a member Of

Gentlemen, beg you to accept my heartfelt
thanks for the kind terms in which your invitation
is expressed. / see, with the most grathed feel
ings, in the list Of names which accompanies your
invitation, some whom in my youth was taught
to regard as honorable and honest men, ornaments
of society. They have sustained unblemished
characters through life. | most highly prize any
token of their esteem. There are others, compan-
ions of my earlier years, and friends of my mature
life upon whose confidence and regard cannot
place too high value. Dear, old Newbern,
"Where'er go, whatever realms / see.
My heart untraycld fondly turns 20 thee;
Still 10 old Newbern turns with ceaseless pain,
And drags at each remove lengthening chain -
To the citizens of Newborn, from whom this in
vitation comes, would most truly say, the hope
Of securing their confidence has supported me
when darkness and gloom seemed threatening to
spread and settle around us; and, whatever re-

the consolation that my public conduct, 80 much
misrepresented, has met their appreciation.
With high regard, am, very truly, yours, &C.,

HoN. EDWARD STAELY-DEAR SIN: We
have been appointed, on behalf of the citizens
OF your native town, to convey to you an invi-
tatlon to partake of public dinner at such time
as may best suit your convenience.
We conceive It to be proper that a high adj
mlration should be expressed of the ability, in
tegrity, and exalted patriotism of our public
servants And surely. sir, we but reiterate
the opinions of those whom we represent when
we say, that no one has exhibited these admir-
ing virtues in more striking and exemplary
manner than yourself. AT time, sir, when
our beloved country threatened with all the
horrors of intestine connections and civil strife
when the compromises of the Constitution were
dsregarded, and that noble instrument itself was
viewed by some, as the "great charter of human
inlnmy and disgrace"- parricidal hands,
strengthened by the unnatural excitemento ola blind
fanaicism, were raised, ready to strike the fatal
blow at our glorious Union--you sir, regardless OF
self and self-aggrandzement, exerted powerful
influence in procuring the passage of those nea-
sures which have "poured oil upon the troubled
waters" and restored peace and quiet to the
try For THIS zoe heartily thank you.
And, sir, during the campaign through which
youhave just passed, and which has resulted in a
triumphant vindication Of your patriotic course,
you have battled successfully against doctrine
which we consider to be highly prejudicial to the
best interests and welfare of the country and to the
perpetuty Of our republican institutions. For this
ice heartily thank you And permit to add our
individual solicitations, to the solicitations of those
whose organ are that you will not refuse US the
opportunity of returning thanks, in more
tangible form, by accepting the invitation above
extended to you.
