The Washington correspondent of the journal Of
Commerce says:
The United States Consul at Bangkok, in Siam,
Mr.. Matoon, is now here, and brings to the Govern
ment an interesting report concerning our CONNER
cial intercourse with that Kingdom. The number
of American vessels which took cargoes at that
port in 1858, was ftyfour. They took rice, hides,
and Sapan wood Most of these vessels sailed from
Siam for Singapore, China, and San Francisco. The
Siamese have a commercial marine of their own,
with foreign captains, but native sailors. They
have a regular packet steamer between Bangkok
and Singapore. The two Kings and the Chief Min
listers of State have steam yachts of their own and
under the exclusive management of native Siamese.
The two Kings both read and write English with
huency.

between George Sands and Paul de Musset Mad
anne Dudevant published in the Revue des Deu1
Hondes, a sort of photographed romance enti-
tied "EUe ct Lwi'' (She and He) of which the late
poet Alfred de Musset the Lui hero. The con-

soUND.-ln another part of our columns will be
found the details of very singular discovery OF
NJ l.. Scott, by means of which sounds may be
made to record themselves, whether these sounds
are those OF musical instruments, or emitted by
the voice IN singing or speaking. Professor Wheat
stone during his recent visit to Paris was invited
which these sounds had printed themselves, and
Is said to have been greatly surprised and pleased
with what he saw. The mark produced on the
paper by particular note is invariably the same

which he speaks is faithfully recorded. As vet
no practical advantage has been obtained by this
discovery; but NJ. Scott is sanguine that, in

which may be written off verbatim, to the great
