The ship Rodman, which arrived to-day, states
that she touched at Whyloopochee on the Pa
ciic, January 29th, and found on the island
boat and nine men. They stated that they had
abandoned the ship Tuscarora, of Coldspring,
in company with the rest of the crew who were
in two other boats. They state that they were
then ninety miles south OF the Omangoe Islands,
but, from an avowal made by one of the parties
who came in the Rodman it is believed that the
Tuscarora was scuttled by some Of the crew
boring holes in her bows. The other eight men
comprising the crew were left on the Island Of
Protonga.

SIR HENRY LYTToN BuLwER.-This gentle
man is diplomatist Of the right sort. Whilst
he maintains his attachment to his own country,
and the dignity Of the station which he occu-
pies as its minister, he mingles agreeably in
social intercourse with the people to whom he
is sent and exerts himself to keep up good
feeling and harmony between the two nations.
He is one Of the most popular ministers that
has ever visited this country, for the principle
upon which he acts is candid, fair, and honora-
ble He has drawn the bonds by which Eng
land and the United States are bound by con-
sanguinity and interest, closer than they ever
were since the establishment of our govern
ment; and has largely contributed to remove
that feeling of jealous hostility towards Eng
land which was heretofore entertained by many
of our citizens. We rejoice at its abatement,
for we think that the two nations, sprung as
they have from the same common progenitors,
have every reason to unite in friendship, and to
stand side by side as the most free, liberal, and
enlightened nations Of the world. May the
spirit which Sir Henry breathes be infused into
the people of both countries.--Balt. Citpper.

EDITORIAL RIGHTS AND DUTIES. = We have
noticed in various quarters certain radical no.
tions touching this subject, which, if they are
not checked, threaten to lead to the most dan
gerous consequences. Editors are beginning
in numerous cases, to act as though really their
time was their own-as though the obligations
between them and their subscribers, not to
speak of borrowers, were somewhat mutual
We have seen several instances where editors
have positively declined to correct manuscripts
of few dozen closely written pages, on both
sides, although they were expressly informed
that they were "at liberty" to make any alter
ations they might see fit We have noticed
several atrocious cases where editors have had
the audacity to demand pay for cost of publish
ing matters of the highest public Importance,
such as resolutions of thanks to steamboat cap
tains, puffs of new schools, and obituary notices
of infant children. Something must be done
to put stop to this, or editors will soon begin
to think that they have the same rights as other
people.

The Kanawha Republican announces the ar
rival of two canoes loaded with deer skins and
ginseng. The Wheeling 7 noticing these
arrivals, expresses its zhment, and in
quires, are there mountal.. lastnesses in Vir-
ginia, where the deer still herd, and where the
crack Of the rife is still SO successful as to
bring canoe load of skins? The Republican
responds that such is the case, and must be
until some channel Of communication is opened
with the East. 1t says Leatherstocking would
never have retired from Elk Hills because of
the scarcity of game or the "contiguity of
man."

PERILoUs.-The st. Louis Union Of May q
says: "During the fire of yesterday morning,
one of the most daring feats was executed Of
which we have ever heard. At the time the
fire broke out, young man was sleeping in
the third story of the building occupied by T.
+. Wetzell & Co. lie awoke, and finding all
egress by the stairs cut off, sprung to the roof,
in the hope of escaping through the skylght OF
the adjoining building, which was one story
higher. BY determined effort he reached the
next roof, but, when there, found to his great
disappointment that the skylight was fastened
down. He passed to the next roof, and found
all means of escape cut off. Finally, he reached
the corner building, occupied by Harvey &
Stewart, the extensive auctioneers, but no ave
nue. of escape yet presented itself. He now re-
sorted to a desperate expedient Cautiously
letting himself down, he clung with his hands
to the caves Of the building, and while in this
position actually kicked open a window in the
story below the roof on Commercial street, and
thus obtained admittance into the building"
