One OF THE SHIPs-The Boston cor
respondent of the S. F. transcript in
recent letter, thus speaks of the largest
merchant ship in the world:
The magnificent clipper ship Great
Republic, is to be launched to-day, and
is the leading theme Of conversation both
among ship owners and nautical gentle
men. The rush to see her is immense.
Some of the papers have intimated that
the children of our public schools should
have holiday on the occasion. She is
the largest, longest and sharpest vessel
in the world. In the course of construc-
ton it is estimated that 10000 persons
have visited her, and the curiosity to see
her is on the increase. From various
statements we learn that she is 325 feet
long, 50 feet wide, and 80 feet deep,
with four complete decks, and capable of
slowing away between 5000 and 5000
tons of freight Her model is considered
the most beautiful ever produced in this
vicinity, and she is designed to outsail
every vessel ahoat 1t it estimated that
she has $3.50 tons of white oak in her
frame, hooks and knees 100000 feet
of hard pine in her keelsons, ceiling,
deck-frames, deck, planking, &c; 800
tons of iron, 56 tons of copper, 1900
knees, and the labor bestowed upon her
amounts to 10000 days work. She has
concave lines forward and aft, a round
stern, and is coppered up 25 feet draught.
All her accommodations are on the up
per between-decks, and on the spar-deck
she has a shelter-house for the crew in
bad weather steam engine of fifteen
horsepower, is on board, designed to do
all the heavy work of the ship, such as
taking IN and discharging cargo, and
hosting topsails at sea. She has four
masts, the after one fore-and-aft rugged,
like the mizzenmast of bark, and the
others have Forbes square rig. Her
mainmast is four feet in diameter, and
l3l feet long the main yard is 2S inches
in diameter and 100 feet square the
other yards are in like proportions. She
will spread 10000 yards of canvass in a
single suit of sails, and will carry 100
men and 80 boys She will be comman-
ded by Capt. L. Mckay, formerly of the
Sovereign of the Seas, and when fitted
out will proceed to New York and there
load for California If she acccn,plishes
all that is expected of her, the name Of
Donald Mckay, her builder, will stand
far in advance of all others

AUTUMN HERE.-The summer is past
and gone--gone like dream away -
How short its sunny hours, how brief the
period since we were heralding its COM
ing with joyful anticipations Fall and
the harvest time will quickly be gone,
also, and winter will be upon us. Thus
time fies-thus runs the world away.
How like our own life is this division of
the seasons we have our spring, sum-
mer, fall and winter-the last leaving us
at the grave. There is a strong admo-
milton, in such a realizing sense, for US to
improve these fceting hours, given US
here to prepare for better, and purer
world. With this season of falling leaves
such recolIectious crowd thickly upon us,
and few are so thoug ughtless, who habitu-
ally look upon nature in the country, as
not to feel with full force the moral les
son of these successive seasons.

COMMODORE VANDERBILT AND THE
PoPE.- Commodore Vanderbilt, by a
somewhat singular coincidence arrived in
his yacht, the North Star. at Civita
Vecchia, just as the discovery of sup
posed Mazzini conspiracy had thrown the
Papal Government into state of terror.
The police of Civita Vecchia, staggered
by the imposing size of the steamer and
the number of persons on board, imme-
diately concluded that it was an Ameri-
can sympathizing expedition, and refused
the Commodore permission to land Af-
ter two or three days useless negotiation,
the North Star proceeded to Naples,
where, at least so the newspapers say,
she was also an object of suspicion, and
had eventually to seek refuge in Malta
On the 23d of August the yacht arrived
at the Bosphorous.

From THE AMAZON BY the last ar
rivals at the Bay, from South America,
by way of Panama, we obtain the follow
ing intelligence:
The Lima journals give no particulars
relative to the difficulty at the Chincha
Islands between the authorities and the
master of the Defiance. The Bogota
brings up special messenger of the Pc
ruyian Government With dispatches for
the Peruvian Minister in the United
States We have, however, learned
from private sources, that Mr.. Clay de-
manded the dismissal of the commander
of the guard ship and $4,000 damages.
With the former part of the request the
Peruvian Government complied, but a
few days afterwards the officer was seen
in public in his uniform, which brought
forth remembrance from Mr., Clay, and
he was ordered to discontinue wearing it.
To the latter part of Mr.. Clay's request
he offered $4,000, which was refused,
and the whole matter referred to the De-
partment in Washington Panama He
