THE IsrHMUs-Hs CeSsion to the United Siates.-
The Aspnwal Courier INDUCES in some speculation
as to the result of the negotiation between the
governments ofNew Granada and the United States
in relation to the Panama riots. 1t says;
The impression seems to be, among natives as
well as foreigners that the United States govern
ment will make short work of the settlement OF the
question. The present position Of Great Britain to-
wards New Granada, and the difficulty sure to be
had in the settlement of the matter, will uudOubted
" have much weight among the existent induce
ments for the former to rid itself of Istmus difficult
ties permanently And this new feature in the
present aspect of her government affairs strengthens
the opinion of many who predict that the result of
the negotiations between the United States and
New Canada will be the ceding by the latter to
the former of both territory and authority upon
the Isthmus.

Exploration and Survey of tho Okefe
mckee SWAMP.

The last session of the Georgia Legislature took
action in favor of a survey of the Okenfenokee
swamp, for the purpose of determining, among
other things, the feasibility of draining it and thus
preparing the way for its sale and cultivation The
swamp contains something like a half million of
acres as many suppose of the richest soil in Geor-
gia. To the world at large it is terra iHcognita.
On one side of it are the head waters of the Sc
wanne passing down into the Gulf, on the other is
the St. Mary's emptyng into the Atlantic. The
presumption is that the bed of the 0kefenokee Is
more elevated than either, and hence that il may
be drained into one or the other, or both.-SaUan-

The Private Correspondence OF
Daniel Webster.

We learn from the n. Y. Tribune, that
the Private Correspondence of Daniel Web
ster, which viii be published by Little,
Brown & Co., at Boston, about the middle
of December next, fills two octave volum-
es of $50 pages each. The earliest letter
in the collection is dated in December,
1898, when Mr.. Webster was only sixteen
years old, and the latest in October, 1852,
a few days before his death. Large gaps
intervene in the correspondence of this ex-
tended period, there being, in fact, whole
years in which not letter of Mr. Webster
appears, his correspondents having neglect
ed to preserve them. The letters of the
last and most important years of his life are
by far the most numerous and interesting.
The following extracts giving Mr.. Web
ster's description of THos. JEFFERSON, and
the latter's opinion of PATRICK HENRY, are
interesting ... .... -.

PECULIAR CHARACTERISTIC OF METEoRIC STONE.
There is one character which is peculiar in the
meteorc stone, and which proves to be of high sig
nifcance, VIZ: its substance is composed OF vari-
Gus mineral ingredients which are identical with
matters of familiar occurrence upon the earth; but
amidst these iron is found in great abundance it
is never found the earth; that is in native or
nearly pure metallic and unconbined state. On the
terrestrial surface iron is always mingled with di.
verse matters, from which it has to be extracted
by art when it is required as a pure metal. The
omnipresent and corrosive oxygen of the air alone
prevents it from maintaining such condition long;
this rusts and eats it away. Oxygen and iron have
SO irresistihly strong attraction or affinity for
each other that they invariably combine when they
are left together. Thus them the unoxydzed and
purely metallic condition of iron in the @rolte
proves that it comes from situation in which there
is 10 oxygen; that is, from beyond the bounds Of
the atmosphere, and that it is, therefore, altogeth.
er unterrestral.
ANOTHER METAL DIsDovERED.-Dr. Hoffman,
following in the wake of Davy and Deville, has
come forward as a dscoverer of metal In lee
ture delivered by him lately at the British Royal
Institution he exhibited bright glisteRing mass
somewhat resembling butter and described it as
ammonium-the metallic base OF ammonia. This
is regarded as highly interesting chemical fact,
inasmuch as it strengthens the views entertained
respecting the constituents oil the atmosphere, viz
that they are all metallic.

IF there be those either North South who desire
an administration for the North against the South
or for the South against the North they are not
the who should give their suffrages to me-
For my own part know only my country, my whole
country, and nothing but my country"
MTLLARD FnLMoRE's SPEECH IN NEW York.
The foundation OF my preference is that Mr.
Fillmore has administered the Executive Govern
ment with signal success and ability. He has
been tried and found true, faithful, honest and con-
scientous wish TO say nothing in derogation from
his eminent competitors, (Webster and Scott) they
have both rendered great services to their country
the one in the field, and the other in the Cabinet
They might possibly administer the government as
well as Mr. Fillmore has done. But then neither of
them has been tried he has been tried in the eeya-
ted position he now holds, and think that prudence
and wisdom had better restrain es from making any
change without necessity for it, the existence or
which do not perceive. ."-Olay's letter to Utnaann

ron THE AHSarcAs ORGAN.
General Sc0tf.

Has anything been done by Congress, during
It's last session, in behalf of our war-worn and un-
requited hero, the only surviving General of our
two last great Wars-the one with Great Britain
and the other with Mexicos General Scott was
the hero the nation delighted to honor, in the days
of Chippewa and Niagara, when he was the first
to bring victory 10 arms after the disasters at
Detroit, Raisin, along the st. Lawrence and else
where. Te General Scott We owe the conquest of
Mexico and the annexation of California He lit
orally" conquered peace" And what has been
the return? As ungrateful as to CaDiLus, our
patriotic General was deprived of his command,
and brought home under arrest for trial Ac-
Quilted with honor no atonement has been made
to his feelings, other than the tardy reluctant, and
grudged promotion to the empty honor of Lieu
tenant General, without increase of pay! How
different the treatment by the nation of General
Jacksonl Why should this be soy Why should
there be no movement by the Republicans in Con.
gress in behalf of General Scott, the Presidential
candidate of Gov. Seward, Of Lieutenant Governor
Raymond, of the Kings, of Truman Smith, and
other leaders of the party who now advocate COL
Frcmont's election to the Presidency?
1t is notorious that Gen. Scott's course, through
life has been so honorable, honest and disnterest
ed, that his talents and his services have been
wholly devoted to his country, that he has neglect
ed his own private fortune. He has risen above all
sordid considerations What an example He
has scarcely the humble means Of the ancient
Cincinnatus. He is now a septuagenarian, living
upon his pay as General, and unless the country
discharges long arrcar of debt to General Scott
soon, it may be too late Will the country do itself
justice?
Is 1t too late now at the extra session of Con-
gress, to repair, in the Army Bill, the injustice so
long done to one of our purest patriots and to the
most distinguished in of our heroes, from the
formation of the government up to the present
timei
1t is hoped these "reminiscences will attract the
notice OF some patriotic statesmen in Congress,
capable of bringing about the discharge of the long
owed debt to General Scott.
