JSo. c. CALHoUS's EYE.-The edito. OF
the Mobile Tribune, in referring to an inter
view with the late John C. Calhoun, thus
speaks of the eye of the man who had no
superior
ave looked at him, and then il was We
saw that eye, the brightest, the blacklist, the
most brilliant, and the most intellectual that
we ever saw in mortal head We have seen
all the distinguished men of the United
States-eXcept General Jackson-but their
eyes were nothing when at rest. But Cal.
houn's eyes never were at rest they glanced
like lightning, not dazzling you, but literally
flashing with The fire of genius-in n word
he is the only man that we have ever en-
countered who bore the indelible mark of
genius. The moment you looked into his
eyes and caught their expression you saw the
God-the spirit that rules the world-and
you never dreamed of doubling his SUPERIOR
ty to yourself and to all the men of the age.
If all the splendid eyes of all the beautiful
women of America were gathered together
in one bright, blazing, beaming focus, they
would pale before the Greek fire of this tram
scendent genius. Its glance was magical
that of Alexander the Great could not have
been more so-and black as the ravens
wing; there was a glory in its beams that
played like lightning on the edge of the
storm"

ATTEMPTED REVOLUTION IN THE Cry OF
MExIco.-New Orleans, Nay 49, The
steamer Texas, from Vera Cruz, brings dates
to the 9th, and reports that on the 18th, q
revolution broke out among the National
Guards, in consequence of an order from
Santa Anna to incorporate the National Guard
with the troops of the line. The revolution
lasted three days, during which business was
entirely suspended, the, regular troops having
taken possession of both forts, the national
streets and the city gates.
A brisk firing was kept up during the
whole time, but finally ended on the Goth by
the entrance of the regular troops from
Jalapa, who took so National Guards as
prisoners. Quiet was subsequently restored
and about so National Guards were killed
and many wounded.
New ORLEANS, May 25.-Dates from Mex.

"CHURCH EXTENSION. 1.-The New School
Presbyterian Church in the South is begin
ming to concert measures for propagating
their peculiar form of faith and Doctrines
Their organ, the "Presbyterlan Witness
has circular signed by large number Of
thcir clergy, calling convention to be held
at MurfreesbOrough on the lst July. All
right thinking men would deprecate a sec
tional organization in any of the Churches;
but unwise agitation of the slavery question
has gone great way to drive the South into
independent associations for their own safe
ty. We do not learn that this convention
looks to any thing more than concentration
of personal and pecuniary effort, for extern
sion Of their church in the South and West.
Their relationship to the church North and
their connection with the General Assembly
will be undisturbed, so far as indicated by
their circular.

VESSELS LOST ON THE PACIFIC COAST
The following is n list of the number and
probable value of vessels which have been
lost on the Pacific coast within the last three
years:-City of Pittsburg, burnt in Vaparai.
so, 100000; North America, wrecked on
Mexican coast, 100000; Independence,
wrecked on Island Mnrgaretta, 100000
Tennessee, wrecked on Indian Cove, $780,.

$4,000; Pioneer, wrecked on San Simeon

Our RELATIONS WITH MEXICo.-Col. Gads-

Mexico, in letter to commercial house in
New York, expresses strong desire to have
our trade with Mexico increased, and adds:
"Frec and uninterrupted intercourse, COM
mercidlly and socially with Mexico, will ac-
complish more in harmonizing the disturbing
disagreements between the two countries,
than all the treaties and negotiations which
diplomacy may accomplish. They are the
great panacea of peace on earth and good will
towards mankind; the foreshadowing of the

THE GOLDEN AGE.-Nearly six years have
elapsed, says the New York Herald, since the
discovery of gold was made in California, and
within that time at least two hundred mil

Australia has not been so long in the field,
and the product has not, therefore, been 80

estimate the aggregate addition to the gold
currency of the world, within the past six
years, to be about two hundred and fifty
millions of dollars.

letter to the citizens of Springfield, Mo-,
speaks in the strongest terms of condemna-

who were the scum and dregs of all parties
who were fugitives from routed fields, or
deserters from pledges given to the people,
