The GREAT EAsTERN.-Our neighbors of Norfolk
are exceedingly anxious that the Great Eastern
shall extend her excursion as far Southwark as
Hampton Roads, and the Herald of that CITY has
made minute calculation, by which it estimates.
as the result of the trip receipt of S45 900 to the
ship-a sum which it believes to be under the
mark. Fifty thousand people, representing the
elite OF the South it thinks could be gathered
there from the shores of the Chesapeake and the
region connected with Norfolk by railway, to see
this Leviathan of the deep, and what is most i'm
portant," says the Herald "among this vast con-
course of visitors would be the cotton men of the
South-an interesting fact for if the Great Eastern
is ever to be freghted proftably and regularly it
must be by cotton-and this crop alone can furnish
the supply, and England must forever furnish the
demand" Should these arguments and entreaties
reach the ears and convince the understanding of
those who will have the control of the great ship,
we can promise pretty large delegation from this
city to swell the number of her visitors

The NATIONAL FINANCEs.-Var and contra
dictory statements having been put forth in certain
of the New York papers, concerning the receipts
and expenditures of the Government involving the
charge of inaccuracy in the estimates of the Secre-
tary of the Treasury, the Washington Constitution
feels called upon, without anticipating Mr.. Cobb's
official report, to give inklng of the state of
the public finances. The actual ordinary means of
the Government for the fiscal year ending June
3Oth, 1859, were SO 5S7.2l being only SO 391
65 more than the Secretary's estimate as contained
in his annual report of December 9th, 1855
The Congressional appropriations having varied
somewhat from the Government estimates, the bal
ance on hand the 1st of July, 1859, was some four
millions greater than was anticipated but the esti
mates for the present fiscal year will differ only
from the actual results by this amount and the diff
ference between the appropriations asked for in the
annual estimates for the fiscal year ending June 80
1860, and the amount actually appropriated by
Congress for that period But says the Constitu-
ton
SIN the actual receipts from customs for the
months of July, August and September to date
nothing is developed to cause the Secretary of the
Treasury to alter his estimates of receipts from that
source. believing that his estimate of $50 900 900
from customs for the fiscal year ending June Both
1861, Will be as near the actual amount as the pre-
sent commercial condition of the country will iusti-
ty. Estimated expenditure for the fiscal year end
ing June 3Oth, 1860, will differ apparently from
what will be actually expended in proper time as
the estimated appropriations to be made bv Con-
gress differ from what was actually appropriated.
The estimated appropriations asked for the service
OF the fiscal year to June 40h 1850, were $50 1872
5l56S.
The appropriations actually made were about
$4,000 900, which would seem to make difference
in what needed for the public service for this
current fiscal year of upwards of $4,000 900; but
the public should not be deceived by this state
ment, for in the estimated appropriation of S52,-
68 is included the single item of Sc 3s2 500
to supply deficiencies in the revenue of the General
Post Office, which Congress will still provide to be
expended during the current fiscal year. While.
therefore, the financial condition of the Govern
ment is far more fattering than many supposed it
would or could be during the discussions which
took place during the last session of Congress rea
tive to the REIMBURSEMENT of the tariff it differs but
little from the anticipation and prediction of the
secretary OF the Treasury, except that the estma-
ted expenditure has fallen short of the actua''
The official organ further states that the actual
expenditure of the Government under each branch
of the public service, exclusive of the public debt
and redemption of Treasury notes for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1859, was SCI, BAG, 226. Is,
which it regards as a refutaton of the charge of
extravaganza so often made against the Admins
tration.

Our NAVAL Forces IN TEE PACFIc.-In the event
of collision occurring in the Pacific between the
forces of the United States and Great Britain, it
may not be unsatisfactory to know, that for once
atieast, we are prepared for such an emergency
BY the latest accounts had on the Pacific coast
on the way thither, the steam frigates Merrimac,
Lancaster, and Saranac, the sloops- ofwar Cyane,
Vandalia, Levant, and st. Mary's, and the qunboat
Wyoming, mounting in the aggregate ISL guns.
and manned by 1850 men. The British have about
twelve vessels, manned by 5000 men, on the sta
ton. If the Warren, Saginaw and Narragansett
(the first two are already on the Pacific, and the
last is ordered there.) were added to Commodore
Montgomerys fleet, we would have as formidable
naval force in the Pacific Ocean as our British
cousins.

Qualifications OF a schoolmaster.

Long time ago. young collegian, itinerating
in the State of Maine, fell in company and also
in love, with very pretty girl, the daughter Of
an old eurmudgeon, whose brains were made Of
sawdust, hogs lard, and molasses, but who, on
account of the spaciousness of his farm, had
been for years at the head of the school COM
mittee in the district. The collegian's attach
ment to Sally Cfor that was the name of the
daughter) was so overpowering that all the logic
and philosophy he had learned in the schools
was compared to the force of his passion, as
chaf in hurricane. But not having the where
withal to winter in Maine without a resort to
employment, he intimated to Sally that he would
like to keep the school III that district. The
kind-hearted girl informed him that her father
was the committeeman and she also informed
him what questions he would put to him, and
how he must answer them ifhe expected to gain
the good graces of her parental relative. Ac-
cordingy, one Sunday evening" the young man
of classic lore informed the old ignoramus that
he would like to take charge of their school for
the winter, and board in his family, whereupon
the old fellow assumed an air of much import
anee, snd locking at the applicant with his
usual dignity while examining candidates for
keeping school, put the same questions that
Sally had informed her admirer would be asked
ado you believe in the final salvation of all
the world P'
Most certainly" answered the young collie
gian, it is the only belief that the Scriptures
justify"
Do you believe that God ever made another
man equal to Thomas Jefferson?"
"Certainly not; and have been ef this orn-
ion ever since | read his Notes on Virginia"
Can you spell Massachusetts 2"
ought to know, sir, for it is my native
State"
Well, spell it."
The young man spelled the word very dis
tinctly, when the father turned to the daughter,
and said
"Did he spell 1t right, Sally 2"
Yes, Sir" answered the affectionate girl !;
when her father, turning again to the candidate,
triumphantly exclaimed:
You may begin school tomorrow"
How the young pedagogue and Sally managed
affairs through the winter is another part of the
story.

The Fillibuster.

The following lines, Written in an oldfashion-
ID round and,-every word spelt correctly. and
punctuated with great care,-were directed to
the Courier from an Ito us) unknown locality
and dropped ID the Shasta Post Office:
When from the earth foul vapors rise
With pestilence to load the skies,-
When noxious fumes on airy wings,
Taint life in all its subtitle springs,
Nature disturbed the invasion sees,
And hastes with instant remedies:
Forth from his cave the Storm King leaps,
Along the vault his courser sweeps
The Day God wells his sick'ned eye
The thunder splits the sullen sky,-
Life blasting fires invade the piain,-
Confusion, wreck, and fury reign;
Men on the furious conflict gaze,
And tremble ever while they praise
Tremble to mark the fearful strife,
Yet bless it as the fount of life,-
Amazed at Natures wakened mood,
But conscious that it leads to good.
So when along the land of gold
The dark'ning clouds of rapine rolrd,
When lawless lust and grasping gain
Envenomed every social vein,
When vile corruption shook the State,-
Then fell the scourge ordained of Fate,
Then grey-eyed he-on Darien's coast
Marshaled to death his red-eyed host
The offering for our sins appointed,
In crime baptized, in blood anointed,
Through life's last narrowing agony
To disinfect our moral sky
T. extinguish from the tainted air
The star malign that lowered there
To sweep the clouds that dimm'd our lustre,
Fate called the numbering Fillibuster
