The Resolute-Capt. Hartstein,s Return.

I
The following is an extract from letter
from an American gentleman in London, dated
December 10Th, which informs US that Capt.
Hartstein and his officers and men will return
to the United States in the English war steam
er "Retribution"
The Queen treated Hartstein with marked
attention at dinner, and in the drawing
room. Afterwards, she came up to him
and said she wished to talk with him, and re-
NAMED in familiar conversation for an hour
On leaving the Isle of Wight, there was a
great display of enthusiasm as the ship passed
out of the harbOr-the shores were lined, aud
the air rang with cheers. We were escorted by
steam yacht which is always in attendance
on the ship-and the fine steam frigate Retri-
button, which was also acting as an escort,
ana we were towed by Government steamer.
An admiralty messenger is also continually in
attendance on the officers.
On arrival at Spithead the ships saluted,
and on entering Portsmouth harbor the trans
ports were lined with people, cheering and
waving hankerchiefs, the military band play
ing national airs, and the battery salutiug
The Old Victory manned her rigging and
cheered. There never was such enthusiasm
aud exhibition of heartfelt feeling-it is the
event of the day, and is in every ones mouth.
The Government have insisted that the Off
GERS shall return in the steam frigate Retri
button, aud they viii probably leave on the
day after Christmas. On Tuesday Capt Hart
stein is invited TO Lord Palmerston's country
seat Il is to be hoped that on the arrival of
the Retribution our government and people
will do something to convince the officers of
that ship, and by them the people and govern
ment of England, of our cordial reciprocation
of their good will and friendship. Events of
this nature happen rarely and they should not
be allowed to pass without every nerve being
strained to convince the people Of this great
and good country Of our sincere feelings of
respect and a hearty desire to draw more close
ly the bonds of union and friendship.
The Admiralty have come TO the almost
positive determination 10 send out another
Arctic expedition in search of Sir Jno. Frank
lin or some of bis partly. Y. Jour. Com.

SCIENTIFIC PHESoMESA.-During a recent Ices

prepared, so that its particles might present large
surface TO the action of the oxygen in the atmOs-
phere, was ignited and continued to burn like tin.

with gunpowder, shown by a very simple eK-
pertinent. Some iron filings and gunpowder were
mixed together and sprinkled iotO the fam Of
spirits Of wine burning on plate, when the iron
filings caught FIRE and burnt ia bright sparks, whilst
the gunpowder passed through the fame without
igniIing; and the quantity that fell on tie plate
was afterwards dried and exploded. Lead pre-
pared in a similar way was shown to be still more
inaammsbls, ior It caught FIRE in beautiful fame
when exposed 10 the air. The Professor stated
that lead nearly as inaammable as phosphorus,
and he explained the cause OF iis not burning in
ordinary circumstances 10 be that the solid product
OF combustion forms a flm that prevents contact
with the oxygen, snd the conducting power Of the
other parts Of the metal draws of aud iissipate the
heat lie pointed out the admirable arrangements
by which the eombustible properties OF the metals
are kept 10 proper CONTROL and the bodies that

UnfarOrahla account, Of the Louisiana

Unfavorabls accounts Of the Louisiana
sugar crop are not now so general. A plan
ter, in letter TO the New Orleans Delta
says.
The truth is this, the Louisiana sugar
planter has another short crop before him.
1t will be short crop a. best now. The
most favorable future cannot prevent this,
and an early fall or unfavorable weather
may reduce the product Of the growing crop
to the figures Of last year, or even iess.-
These are the facts. My own crop, am
persuaded, is fully two weeks behind last
year-a very late season. and while the
stand is better, my only hope is in late
fall; and this, from the very backward spring
we may reasonably expect. l am persuaded
that my crop is in no way the inferior ofthe
crops Of my neighbors, and the universal
statement that hear upon the whole coast
is "My stand is good, but the canes are very
small'' Believe my prediction-it will take
most favorable season 10 give us zoe, 900
hogsheads; and with bad weather, drouth,
or an early fall, there is no estimation, with
any degree Of certainty, how little we may
make,

The New York Times congratulates the
country on its business prosperity for the
financial year that has just closed, and an
ticipates equal prosperity for the year that
has just opened. Says that paper:
The United States never before knew SO
prosperous year as the financial or trade
year ending 30lh June 1856. And the
probability is that the forthcoming statistics
from the Treasury Department, for the year
ending 30lh June LAS, will abundantly prove,
as our bankers and merchants already feel,
that the year 1857 is yet more profitable.
Both seasons were marked by an export
trade In excess of the imports, and by the
most singular and gratifying freedom from
great mercantile disasters and currency
troubles. The profits Of the two years have
been enormous, and mostly 10 our own peo-
Pile. The export lists have returned upon
nearly every great staple larger results than
are shown on the Treasury tables. In other
words, the resulting profits have, in no
sense, proved fallacious. They are substan-
tial private wealth, and when taken the form
of money capital, must find employment in
one OF two or three ways. Railway securi.
lies may be decried and deprecated, but the
business world oil the United States cannot
stand still, nor has it failed TO accumulate.
The Banks and Discount Brokers are the
favored mediums through which much of
this accumulation is employed to an income
10 the owners.

A PRACTITIONER.

THEY Know now TO MAKE A Bill IN
KArsAs.--A correspondent of the New
York Times, under date Of Lecompton, Au.
gust l makes the following statemet:
A day or two ago gentleman from Law
renee visited the camp, and, in very sol.
emn and efiecting manner, represented To
Col. Cook the ruin which had been perpe-
trated by some Of the soldiers on u bridge
that crosses one of the ravines that lie be-
tween the encampment and the town, and
presented bill for $50 as probable cost oil
repair. The Colonel, who is the embodi-
ment Of politeness and integrity, expressed
his regret at the occurrence, and promised
to look after it. In the course of day
therefore, he brought carpenter with him
10 the scene Of devastation. examined the
injuries committed, proceeded to town, made
certain purchases, returned. and in less thar
five minutes and by an expenditure Of just
FIVE cents, invested in nails, made sub
stantial and efficient repair oil all the harm

IMPORTANT TO RAILROAD TRAVELLERS
A court in Ohio has decided that the loss Of
railroad ticket falls upon the purchaser
1t held that, the ticket being negotiable by
delivery, any one picking up the lost ticket
could ride upon it. The ticket agent, hav-
ing sold ticket to the plaintiff, the latter
was obliged, if he rode, to give it to the
conductor. 1t was held further by the
court, that passengers, by the purchase and
delivery Of tickets 10 the conductor, did not
become iessees Of the cars; that they were
still in the possession and under the control
Of the company; that il the company order.
ed passenger who had thus paid his fare
10 leave the cars and he refused, he might
be elected without rendering the company
liable 10 an action for assault and battery;
that they would, however, in such case, be
liable for breach of their duty as comm on
carriers, and might be made TO pay such
damages as resulted from that breach Of
duty either for detention or any other loss.

TWe get few particulars ofthe death
Of Senator Rusk from the Nacogdoches
Chronicle, extra, as follows;
Gen. Rusk is dead.-A great calamity
has befallen the State of Texas. One Of her
most distinguished and noblest sons has
fallen. Thos. J. Rusk is no more. A gloom
hangs over our people-a mystery, thus far,
is connected with the matter. We can only
give the facts, and mourn the sad stroke
which has thus deprived Texas and the
South Of a valued and useful Champion
Gen. Rusk has, ever since the death Of his
lady, suffered under mental depression
which at times bore him down with its
weight. He has, to great extent, seclu-
ded himself from society, and lately that
dependency has been more marked and ap-
parent to those familiar with him. A severe
illness, from which he was just recovering
had Frustrated him for weeks, and he wa.
suffering greatly from rising upon the
back of his neck.
On yesterday evening, about 2 o'clock
his family, hearing the report of a gun and
the falling Of body, ran to the spot, and
found him y ing dead upon the ground, be.
hind the gallery at the back OF the house
with rifle uncer him. A coroner's jury
was summond, from whose verdict we ex.
tract the following:
"The cause Of his death was gun shot
(rife) a rifle gun in his own hands, and
discharged by himself"
No further clue can be given 10 this mys.
terry. No papers or writings of the same
day have been found, except letter address.

BATHING CusroMs AT CARE MAY
There is one fashion prevailing at Cape
May which has not yet been introduced at
Newport. The ladies go into the water
promiscuously with "beaux," making regu-
lar engagements, as for dance, to meet
them on the beach or among the breakers.
There is one bright-eyed little gipsey from
Baltimore, the belle of Congress Hal"
who is "engaged ahead" for bathing as well
as dancing during the remainder of the
season; and sometimes, she has to battle
with three or four gentlemen ofa morning.
allowing each by turn the felicity of float
Ing or ducking her dear little figure.
