the same vessel. who constitute the prize
crew. The Brothers was fallen-in with by the
| Marion on the 9th September, near Mayumba
Point on the coast of Lower Guinea, in lat
| 3 south. and Ion. III east
The Ketch gave no evidence of her nation
aIity until the sloop-of-war fired gun across
her bows, when she hoisted the American
! ensign. On being boarded, she was found in
charge of Capt. GAGE and seven men, all the
| crew being Portuguese, Spaniards, &c..-
| two of whom claim to be passengers. Her
cargo consists scantling, plank. wooden
spoons. boilers, bricks for a furnace, forty
water casks spikes, a lot of sponge, beans
&c, and about $500 in Mexican ounces;
which being such articles usually con-
stitute the outfit of a SLAYER, she was seized
and sent home. The Brothers cleared from
Havana on the 22d July, for st. Thomas, on
the coast of Africa, at which point she did
not touch and was bound to the Congo River
when captured by the Marion.
The papers of the Ketch are all in proper
form, as we learn, so far as has been dis
covered Captain GAGE states that his voyage
was legitimate one, and that the cargo OF
the Brothers was intended for parties doing a
regular commercial business on the Coast.

British and American cruisers were pursuing
them with zeal.
Lieut.. SroNE informs us that the weather
was very pleasant on the South African Coast,
and that he found il necessary at times to
cover with a blanket at night. The officers
and men of the Squadron, so far as heard
from, continued IL enjoy excellent health.

From the Memphis Appeal.
Death of j. w. Vyhite-Mysterious
circumstances.

We learn from Mr.. J. S. BROOKS and Mr..
WIN. PANDER, both of Haywood county, in
this State, who had just returned from
Arkansas, that when they were ten or twelve
miles this side of Clarendon. on the military
road near White river. they where informed
that dead body had been found and was
lying in deserted log Int by the road side
that the Coroner had held an inquest over the
remains-that no marks of violence were
found upon the body, and nothing app AIRED
to show how death occurred, the jury had
returned a verdict of death from causes I'M
known.
A watch and chain were found upon the
body. some letters and several valuable notes,
and also name marked upon the shirt worn
by the deceased, showed him to be Mr.. j. w.
WHITE, of Chattanooga. Tennessee. who was
arrested, some time ago, on the charge of
forging land warrants, discharged on trial,
and re-arrested and held in fifteen thousand
dollars bail for his appearance to take another
trial. There was no horse on which the de-
ceased might have been riding. his boots
were very muddy. At the time our informant
passed, two men were digging grave to
bury him, just by the cabin where he lay
They were intoxicated, and their appearance,
and that of the desolate spot where the hut
stood were SO disagreeable and so suggestive
of unpleasant reflections. that the two gentle
men rode away with very unpleasant impress
sions upon their minds. We presume the
family of the deceased, who was greatly re-
spected among his neighbors, will cause an
examination to be made into the circumstances
of his death.

ES EDWIN ID. MORGAN, the Governor elect
of the State of New York is prominent and
wealthy merchant of the empire city, doing
business on Front street as a wholesale West
India goods dealer. During the quarter of
century in which he has been engaged in bust
ness in that city, he ha{been distinguished for
honorable dealing. and for sagacity aud en-
terprise. characteristics which have made him
one OF the weaithiest men. in New York, and
one of the most respected of its citizens
Mr.. Morgan is native of Massachusetts, and
was born in the county of Berkshire on the
Sth of February 1911. AT the age of seven
teen he left bone without money and went to
Hartford, Connecticut, to seek his fortnne.-
| he was engaged by trader for term Of
three years. at small salary. Shortly after
| the expiration of this period his employer
being pleased with his efforts and observing
| his business capacity. took him into partner
| ship. The firm was quite successful, but Mr.
Morgan remained in it only two or three
years. preferring to give fuller scope to his
| energies; and he therefore removed to New
| \ ork, and established himself as wholesale
grocer. He has been highly successful in his
| business, and his reputation was firmly estab-
lished among the business men of the me tro-
] polls long before he became known to public
I life. In Is49 he was elected a member of the
Board of Assistant Aldermen, and this, we
| believe. was the first public Office he held. In
iooo ne was erected Il state senator, winch
Office he held for four years, earning the re-
! spect and confidence of his party. During
| the last Presidential contest he was chairman
of the Republican State Committee of New
| York, and it is probably owing to his eff
| cheney in that post that his name was brought
prominently before his party. and that he
was nominated as a candidate for Governor.
At the election last Tuesday be was elected
by majority of about 10000 over his Dem
ocratc competitor, Judge Parker-BOston
| Courier.

Arkansas Statistics.

We extract the following from the message

l3l.l97 were free white males; 1918 free
white females; S0.385 slaves and 734 free
persons of color. This abstract also shows
that the lands cultivated in the year 1857
were 3l7 $50 acres in cotton, and the produc-
ton 1862 bales of cotton; 910.354 acres in
grain, and the production l6,SS0,952 bushels
of corn, lbs. 900 bushels of wheat. and O.
035730 bushels of oats. BY table II. of the
auditors report, it appears that there were
no returns to tax books for the year 1853
from the counties of Arkansas, Ashley, Col
umbia, Greene, Lawrence, Mississippi, and
Sewer, but the tax books for the year 1857
were returned from these seven counties. as

Without allowing anything for increase of
the property taxed in these seven counties

"Getting No Better Fast,

The war between the ,nterrifod portion of
the Administration press and the Douglas or
gans increases in bitterness since the Illinois
election. The Washington Union wages the
war with more terocity than ever, and the
Philadelphia Press and the States retort with
an energy and good will that evince little
pity for n fallen foe We trust that they will
max "Kilkenney-cat" fight of it, for then
the whole country will have fewer disturbers
of the public peace and the army OF political
demagogues and agitators will be greatly
diminished.
The States now charges that il was the in
tention of the Administration. in the event OF
Douglas securing only small majority in the
Illinois Legislature, to have .fsated his cleo
tion by bribing some OF his friends, and IL finds
in the columns of the Uh'oa evidence upon
which to base the charge. II is true that the
U,siOa did publish "a letter from Springfield,
dated before the election, which prophesied
that even though Douglass friends should ''be
in apparent m ljority in the legislature his
election would be defeated. but the assertion
that this contained an intimation Of bribery
seems to be- AN inference only-perhaps fair
one. The StI'es, however. seems well con-
WINGED that such ar intention was entertain
ed, and thus exulis over its explosion:
''The great measure Of success attained by
the Democracy Of Illinois. in their late noble

to stretch forth their hands to receive the prof
