London, January 80. 1851. {

Lohuon, oauuafy oV, 1901. faz
Sir You win regret to learn that the
United States contract packet Atlantic,
which left Liverpool on the 2Sth December
last, with the mails, &C., for New York, hav.
ing met with an accident to her machinery,
was obliged, when within twelve hundred
miles of New York, to return and put into
Cork harbor, where she arrived on the 22d
inst. H t
The Postmaster General, on being made
acquainted with these circumstances, imme-
diately gave directions to the Postmaster of
Liverpool to forward the mails which were
on board the Atlantic by the British con-
tract packet africa, appointed to sail for
New York on the first February; and his
Lordship, feeling assured that you would
have adopted like liberal course towards
this department under similar circumstances,
has ordered that tie mails shall be sent in
their present state with the amount of sea-
postage chargeable upon the letters credited
to the United States Post Office, as if the
mails had been conveyed to their destined
port by an United States packet. p
1t is understood that the steamer Scam
bria" will be despatched from Cork on Tues
day, the 4th proximo, with the cargo of the
Atlantic. and orders have been given that a
ship mail may be forwarded by such
vessel

China to the 9th of October has been re-
ceivcd, which represents the state of things

but rather gaining ground Additional
guards were considered necessary for the
factories at Canton.

done, and in this case, upon the manner IN which
il was done.
Hence, there was no provision for their taking
an oath, as required Of Judges by the Constitu-
ton. A commissioner might act without taking
IN oath. The commissioner, therefore, did not
come under the denomination OF an inferior
court. If this were true, the act Of George
Curtis in this case would be null and void
He cited from the opinion read by Judge
Story in the case Of Pennsylvania vs.. PrIgg, to
confirm this position.
Not only was the process before the commits
sioncr not preliminary, but it was not collateral
with anything else. There was no court that
could control ii. His proceedings were inde-
pendent and final. If so, the acts Of the CON-
missioner were null and void, and hence the
act of Marshal Dcvens was null and void, and
Thomas Sims was illegally held, and ought to
be discharged by this court

Fellop Citizens: The undersigned committee,
after having invited the several counties of the
State to send delegates to a common school con-
vention in December last, deemed it expedient to
defer the meeting until future day. We now
most respectfully renew that invitation.
We have been gratihed with the interest ey-
pressed in different portions Of the State and can
not but hope that there will be general response
to this proposition. What we desire is, meet
ing Of delegates from different parts of the State
to take into consideration the great cause Of com
mon school education. No question more deeply
concerns the welfare of the whole State. The in
crease of our population, the Development of our
resources, and the extending spirit Of enterprize
among our citizens, all demand of us some earnest
attention to the cause Of general education.
To devise some practicable system, and the
means Of carrying it into effect, will require ma
ture deliberation. This is the object Of the con-
vention which we now invite to assemble.
We therefore respectfully solicit our fellow cit-
delegates, two from each county, to a convention
to be held in the town of Marietta, on Tuesday
the 9th day Of July next
As we feel assured there some in every
county who take an interest in the subject, we
hope they will see that this proposition be fairly
offered for the action Of the people.
We highly appreciate the interest taken in thl'
subject by the press Of our State, and beg they
will still lend their aid by inserting this call, anc
urging the claim as they may deem most useful

FRoM CUBA.-The New Orleans Picayune men
tons rumors Of an outbreak in Cuba. One re-
port had it that negroes on some plantations in
the interior had risen upon their masters; another
story was to the effect that revolution against
the authorities had been started and was making
headway.
The Delta gives an explanation. II says that
these rumors had their origin in fact well-known
in New Orleans, that large number Of the patri-
ots have been leaving Havana, since the 10th Of
this month, for Vuslta Abajo, with view Of join
ing the revolutionary movement as soon as it
breaks out This movement has been hastened
by the orders which have been issued for the ar
rest Of the leading patriots in Havana, and in
other parts ofthe Island. considerable number
of them have retired to the mountains, carrying
with them an entire company Of Spanish soldiers,
which was stationed at San CristovaI, at the foot
Of fhe Cuzco mountains, and many deserters from
the army. These mountains afford retreats mac
cessible TO the Spanish authorities.
Az proof Of the secrecy with which the ty-
.ants Of Cuba make their arrests. says the Delta,
We may state the fact that the arrests referred to
were made during the festivities on the occasion
of tho visit Of several distinguished members OF
our Conersss TO the captain generals and yet were
not known to those gentlemen before they len

LOLA MoNrEs.--The Paris correspondent Of
the st Louis Republican, referring TO the sorees
which President Bonaparte is in the habit of Civ
ing, says:
Lola Monies is striving with mighr and main
to get an invitation to these presidential parties
The last week has been signalized by two des-
perate attempts on her part. She had the audaci-
ty TO apply TO the Bavarian minister to procure
her ticket, on the ground other having been the
"dear and intimate friend Of the king" This
application being treated with the scorn it deserv-
ed, she determined to try another plan. She ar
rayed herself in her most brilliant and becoming
attire, black velvet and diamonds and conceang
it by large cloak, she drove to the Elysee and
asked to see the president. His ordnance officer
sent to speak to her, and she used her dazz-
ling eyes and charming mouth to such an ndvan-
tage, that he, without knowing her name, con-
sented to get her admitted to the president. He
conducted her into anteroom Of the palace ard
left her, to go and request the prince to receive
her. In few moments he returned and led I.o-
la, all trembling with Joy and triumph, to the
saloon, where Louis Napoleon stood ready to re-
ceive her and listen to the "urgent petition" abe
came to offer. As soon as the door closed on
Mr.. Ney, Lola threw back her cloa X, displa wing
her superb toilette, and falling at the feet Of the
president, commenced, "Your ROYAL Uiehpeu,
-and was going on with something about ssyour
most humble subject" when Loais Bonaparte.
who had instantly recognized her, raised her gal
lanty but codly, and without word, conducted
herto the door, opened it, and said to Mr. Ney,
who remained IN the anteroom--''C Colonel, will
you see this lady to her carrirgel"a and dropping
the hand of the astounded Lola, returned TO the
saloon and closed the door. Il in said that she
does not intend to try again To enter the pres-
dents circle, but is preparing to challenge the
head Of the government for his "insultine con.
duct towards her.

in the district. He possesses a clear dis
cerning mind, sound and accurate judg-
ment, and as an advocate we are positive,
he has no equal in the District As q

an envied reputation, in this and the

0rBy Iester from Kalmazoo, Mich,

Or By letter from Kalmazoo, Mich,
dated July Sd, 1887, we are informed
that on "Tuesday, the lst day Of July,
James Madison Tremaines was sentenced
10 confinement at hard labor in the State
Prison for the term of four years for
horse stealing"
twill be recollected that some two or
three years ago Tremaines escaped from
prison at this place, under conviction for
horse stealing, while waiting for sentence.
We trust when bis confinement in Mich.
gan expires that requisition will be had
on the Governor Of Michigan to have
him returned to this State for sentence
Besides the indictment under which he
was convicted here, there are two others
against him on which conviction would
have been certain but for bis escape.
He is a confirmed and irreclaimable
scoundreI, and reform in his case is hope
less. We are glad that in part he is get
ting bis deserts.
