KIT CARs0N.-A little over a year since the
writer Of this spent day or two with Kit Carson
the celebrated mDuntaineer. His residence is in
Taos, New Mexico. There is nothing about him
ct first sight which would naturally attract the at
tent0n of stranger except, perhaps, his high
and noble forehead and his large blue eyes, which
seem TO search for and know ones inmost thoughts
at gance yet in expression as gentle aud kind
as maiden's. IN stature, he is rather below the
medium height, and q triae too broad acrnss the
shoulders for q well-proporsi6ued man, and much
riding has given him a somewhat dummy appear
ance on foot, but on horseback his appearance is
perfectly regal. He looks the King. If he should
ride through the streets of this city he would at
once command the attention and admiration of
every one. To know him. one should sit with him
around his hearthstone around his camp fire in
the mountains. He bears upon his eountenanee
the reflection Of the "nobiest work Of the Creator
an honest man." He is the very soul of trath and
honor One cannot converse with him five min
utes without having the most implicit confidence
in everything which he relates, He is simple aud
unobtrusive in his manners and conversation, Un-
like most other m0untaineers he disiikes to speak
of his own exploits and adventures, and one is nu-
der the necessity of using some art in bringing
HIN out on these topics He is the very embodi-
ment of coolness, seifpossession and eoura ge in
the hour of danger. He never fights for glnry,
but loves the excitement incident thereto. He told
the writer that "he had never fought either white
man or Indian when in honor or safety he could
avoid it, Nature has educated him amid her lafsy
mountains, in her dense forests, beside her foaming
cataracts and her laughing, flashing rivulets; and
to-day he is one of the noblest men in the world.

THE ORIGIN or LoNDoN.--The antiquity of this
city is undeniable. 1t was place Of some note
from the date of the earlier historic records. A
collection Of houses not perhaps magnificent,
stood on the little hills above the Thames, near the
Fleet river and on both the banks Of WallbrOOk,
when the Romans. after invading the island, forced
their way through Kent into Surrey, and probably
crossed into MiddleseX. This town or village had
been the capital city OF a powerful British prince,
mere than equivalent to any of the towns visited
by Dr.. Livingstone in his remarkable tour through
the central regions of Africa, and we trust that it
was more moral city than the metropolis OF the
King ef Dahomey. Our ancestors should have
more credit for civilization than is given to them
by the historians of their invaders. Roman writers
were not interested in producing the character of
the nations whom their soldiers conquered in very
bright c0lors, and their testimony should be care
fully investigated with the light Of such incidental
circumstances as q writer lets out occasionally
without considering the results.
The Britons who resisted the invasion of the Ro-
mans were numerous people, for they could not
otherwise have brought Numerous armies in the
field, or given their antagonists so much trouble as
these Romans experienced in beating them. The
natives of the islands then possessed good arms,
but the buCkler, spear and sword imply certain
degree of progress in the mechanical arts. Char
lots Of war formidably accoutred, were common
among them and the existence Of these imple.
ments infer w0rkmen and their manufacture
Scytes for their chariotpoles implied the erection
of forEes and the training Of blacksmths and cut
lers. Therefore, the Brit0ns of the Roman period
may have appeared barharhns to the polished
Italians, but we need not think of them as sayages
precisely resembling, in all but color, some of DR.
Livingstone IS friends We know that they had mine.
and iron-works, and they must have had artsan
in wood, and they had some agricultural knowl
edge, or they could not have been supported il
great numbers. London, ia their time, may have
been pleasant place and an important town.

A MAD AL

John Levy, laborer in Agers, has lately been
great drunkard, and a brute to his poor wife,
Having violently expelled her from the house, she
accepted the kind protection of aneighboring fam
lily named Smith. On Monday, the demented
Levy took double barrel gun loaded with buck
shot, and went in quest of his wife. The Smith
family and she were at dinner in the kitchen, when
he came to the half-open door, swore he would
have his we's life, stuck the gun in at the door,
and fred both barrels at her. Fortunately his
drunkenness unsteadied his aim, and the whole
double charge of shot went into door without
hurting anybody. The screams of the women at

In the last report Of the Board Of Health Of this
city, the table Of natiyiies puts down sixty Of the
defunct as natives of the United States, two ma
tives Of Mississippi, and none of South Carolina
these two States being classed with the foreign
countries. Mississippi comes in between Mexico
and Poland, and South Carolina between South
America and SPAIN If the report continues to be
made out as the States secede, next time Alabama
will be at the head Of the list, just before Africa
and Florida will come in between England and
France. Never mind. We hope it won't be long
before the Board of Health will be able to collect
these dreadfully scattered States, and several 9TH
ers, and lump them together, under one grand and
perpetual Southern name.

THE FURY OF SEASToRM ExEMpLrF1ED.-As o
curious evidence of the fury of the Storm and the
force with which the waves were dashed against
the base of the cliffs on the Irish exposed coast
foreign paper mentions thata person, whose kali
yard is situated about 100 yards from the brink of
the cliffs at Iresgo, which are there upward of 100
feet in height, found copger eel among his cab
bages, which had been thrown up with the spray
to such height above the cliffs that the wind had
carried it over 100 yards intervening between the
garden and the cliffhead, and landed it very con-
Veniently in the kail-yard

The Charleston Mercury, after saying that to
send an armed ship to Charleston to collect the
revenue will be an actual declaration Of war;
adds, - the end is certain delycrunCe. In the mean
time, 1Gnl1 commerce will be made the spoil Of
our pTirQteeFS."
This is talk worthy of a first class maritime e na-
ton" bpt for some time to come the only pTlrote
tears South Carolina will have, are those shed over
its own folly not to say vic edness.
III. y Commercial Advcr User.
Let not tho New York Commercial Advertiser
be too sanguine. Let it not dslude itself the
fancod distresses of Carolina or the South. It's
sympathy is not asked for, nor is its advice at
all necessary. It had better look at home, and
take care of home. There may be danger there
great danger-and within a very few weeks at that,
if the Abolition prosecutors of the South dare add
to thoir long black list of msdeeds, the horrid
crime of attempting wholesale slaughter.
What makes New York wealthy and powerful :?
Commerce! Cut off that commerce and what
would New York become? A third rate city, to
say tho least! Now, then for the application: A
Southern Confederacy will be formed, and have a
governmental operation before the 4th OF March, in
all human probability. That government will be
recognized at home and abroad as such, and will
be clothed with all necessary powers Let the
North Or the Federal Government fire a war gun
upon The south, ana ettefS OF naFque anu repfsal
will be at once issued, and hundreds of pryateers
will swarm upon the ocean as if by magic, preying
upon and destroying New York and Northern COM
mercc. From all the ports of the North and from
Europe-as privatcering is immensely profitable
privateers will come, only asking to be furnished
with the necessary papers. Our new government
will always have an abundant supply of those doc
uments on hand, and if the necessity is forced by
the North, will use them with no sparing hand.

At the quarterly meeting of this body, on Mou-

requesting the different companies OF the Fire

forming military guard for home protection, and
appointing committee composed of one member
from each company to carry out this object. As
some six or eight of the companies are already

MILITARY MATTERS.

We heard of nothing particularly new among
our military companies yesterday. We heard
that Capt. Jaquess' new company of State Infantry
at the Barracks had received marching orders, but
would not probably leave before Friday.
The Yumor that bearer Of dispatches was here,
en- route from Washington to the U. S. squadron
before Vera Cruz the end of the business being
the blockade of this port, has afforded much food
for talk, but there appears to be no reasonable
foundation as yet for the rumor.

and disarmed Levy, and allowed him 10 return
home, where he took a table knife and tried to cut
his throat. He gashed the right side of his neck
horribly, but without indctng a mortal wound.
All covered with blood, he was soon discovered
and brought over to Charity Hospital where he
now is. He will have nice NttIe piece of business

Yesterday was something worthy of the name ;
il was all sorts of weather. Early in the morning
heavens sluice-gatcs opened, and the torrents
poured poured with little intermssion during the
greater part Of the day. Toward evening there
was ii hold-up, but the heavens still lowered and
the atmosphere grew so chilly as to set the indoor
CRATES ablaze everywhere. The next change will
probably be cold and clear one.

WHY EcT USE COAL oiLp

camphene lamp exploded on Monday evening,
in the kitchen of Mrs. Clohecy's premises, at the
corner of Jackson and Annunciation streets. A
negro woman had one of her feet badly burnt. and
the floor was set fire. Such accidents are bound
to continue as long people will insist upon using
camphene. Why not use coal oil, which is cheaper,
gives as bright light, and never explodes?
