AMERICAN GESIUs.-A story is told us, and
true one it is, which will illustrate the resour-
COS of American genius. We will retell it: Last
week Messrs. Ostrom and Vanvranken, of One
"a, in this county, started out on hunting ex-
pedition. When some miles from the point Of
departure and while walking on iume of the
South Yuba Canal, stepping from one tie to an
other, Vanvranken fell and injured his hip Sc
verely, so that he could not walk. The hunters
we're far from human habitation and help. 0s-
from set his wits at work and was soon moving
his companion homeward. Not being strong
enough to carry the wounded man, he procured
board and succeeded in dragging him on il
across the ties to the ditch. Here he built a
raft and laid Vanvranken on it. Unfortunately
there was not water enough in the canal to foat
of sufficient length to reach across the ditch
from bank to bank, and going some rods down
stream he damned the ditch with it till the wa
ter flowed back and rose high enough to float
the raft. The cargo came down to the dam.
Then going farther down he constructed more
dams or locks, and in about six hours Vanvran-
ken was thus foatcd three miles. Assistance
WAS here procured and the wounded man taken
home, as near drowned as bruised to death
Ostrom ought to engrave on his coat of arms

A GALLANT PREDIcAMESr.-The old Pine
street bridge, as all the city knows, and part
of it to its sorrow, has an immense gap in it of
some sixty feet in breadth-too wide altogether
for any body to straddle. Well, as the bridge
is impossible, and as Piety Hill must have ac-
cess to the town in order to save it when fires
come, the enterprising folks on the other side OF
creek, just above the water, out of the timbers
of the old bridge. The foot way is the simplest
thing imaginable, being made of straight sticks
Of hewn timber. The creek, it is we'll known,
runs there with considerable pretensions to vol
dmc and velocity, but none whatever to clcanli-
ness. On Tuesday our friend and neighbor, Sol.
Stout, gallantly undertook to convoy a lady
over :he surgiDg billows. The fumes were
crossed, the bottom of the hill gained, and the
middle of the timber reached, when a sudden fit
into Tie drink, dragging our friend Stout with
her by the hand. Sol. gallantly buffeted the
waves, throwing them back with heart of con-
troversy, as Shakespeare would say, but it was a
scene of rough and tumble fer few minutes
sach as the world has seldom and Piety Hill
never witnessed. Sometimes crinoline up
permost, and we give Stout the credit of doing
his best to keep it 80 all the time but it wa:
considerably beyond his power. After having
revolved on their axes, waltzed in every con
ccivable shape, and been turned topsy- -turvey
two or three dozen times in the muddy water
strangled to death by criuoline and mud com
bncd, he succeeded in bringing himself ono,
more to perpendicular and dragging the al
most inanimate form of his rough and tumble
companion to the gravel. Sol. Stout was the
means of putting railing to the log that very
night.

The Capture of Beaufort, S. G

Speaking Of the above event, the New
York Tribune says: IF the capture of
Beaufort has really been achieved, it will
be the most important event of the war to
the present time. The harbor is "a splen-
did one, with an easy approach, thus In
suring safe and commodious rendezvous
for our fleet. The town lying almost
midway between Charleston and Savan-
nah, within few miles of the railroad
uniting these two cities, forms a grand
base of offensive operations against them,
and, in fact, its possession, supported by a
proper force, surely precdes the capture
of the capitals Of Georgia and South Car
olina. A most important cotton port
would, moreover, by this blow be opened.
Thus, then, at glance the value of
the success the National arms have prob
ably achieved may be seen. Our great
feet holds superior harbor; powerful
army is established upon the land reE-
devious is opened for the gathering of
Union men and contrabands the strong
holds Of the rebellion are menaced in the
rear, the attention Of the rebel army on
the Potomac is distracted and most fa-
vorable field is gained for Winter opera
tons. 1t is as earnestly to be hoped as it
is firmly to be believed, that the news we
must within a few hours receive NAV be
decisive in favor of the National cause on
the Southern Coast.

FORTRESS MONROE, Nov.


BY flag of truce just from Norfolk we
have news of the fleet, but provokingly
meager, as the only person who came
down was bound by parole to reveal no
particulars.
The steamer Union, with a cargo Of
horses and stores, and another transport,
whose name is not given, were lost during
the gale, one at Kill Devil Shoal and the
other on Rogue's Beach, on the coast OF
North Carolina The crews Of both yes

Raleigh, n G.. 1t is not known whether
any were lost. But 10 horses were
saved.
The executive officer of the Minnesota
states upon information received by the
flag, that the feet was bombarding Port
Royal and meeting with a warm reception,
the Rebels having for some time been pre-
pairing tor them.
FORTRESS MONROE, Nov. 10.
The steamer Spaulding arrived from
Hatteras Inlet this moning with the Twen-
tieth Indiana Regiment.
A deserter who reached the inlet in a
small boat stated that the news had been
received at the main land of the taking
Of the Confederate forts at Port Royal and
the landing of large Federal force
Beaufort has also been taken by our
troops.
No particulars have arrived, but the
main fact corresponds with news received
few hours since from Norfolk by flag
of truce.
From the same source VIC have rumor
that the Railroad above Beaufort has
fallen into the possession of our troops
with an immense amount Of stores.
Five deserters, who reached Newport
News this morning, state that the rebels
above James river aIe in CONSERVATION,
and also bring an improbable rumor that
our troops had advanced up the railroad
as far as Charleston
BALTIMORE, Nov. II.
| It is rumored that Charleston has been
| bombarded by our troops, but the report
| is not credited here. Nothing has been
received here by the Old Point boat to
warrant it, except an outside report that
at the last accounts our troops had ad
vanced to within twelve miles of Charles
I ton.

Our Foreign Relations.

Advices received in Washington from
Europe, both official and unofficial, are
emineatly satisfactory. In France since
the return of Prince NAPOLEON, all chance
Of the recognition of the Southern Con-
federacy is considered at an end. The
Prince does rot hesitate to declare openly
his sympathy with the Federal Govern
ment, and his belief that the Rebellion
Will be put down.
Count PIPER, the new Minister Resi-
dent from Sweden and Norway, has al
ready: had an audience Of the Secretary of
State, at the Department. 1t is officially
communicated to the Government that
the selection Of this distinguished states
man,-a lineal descendant of Count PIPER,
who is identified with the glorious history
of his country, in the period of CHARLES
XII, of Sweden,-is designed as special
mark of respect and good will on the part
Sweden towards the United States 1t is
thought that our Government will make
some suitable recognition of this action Oh
the part-of Sweden,
The people of England, too, seem to be
changing their notions in regard to the
Southern rebellion. The hostility of the
ruling classes and official journals of that
country towards our Government, is hap
PLY decreasing. Even RUSSELL, the
notorious correspondent of the London
Times, seems to be getting his unwilling
eyes opened. After ridiculing our armies
without stint, and doing all in his power
to bring the cause of the Union into con.
tempt, he is forced in view of the energy
of the administration and the extensive
warlike preparations going on, to change
his ground, and to declare his belief In
the ultimate power of the North to put
down the Rebellion.
When it is known that the Emperor Of
Russia has from the first sympathizec
with the Federal Union, and that the
influences of reason and more mature re
fection are making it friends in othel
European governments, out of those who
were at first its enemies, we opine the ad
ministration, in prosecuting the war, viii
have but little to fear from foreign inter
ference. This is very desirable. All W.
wants the privilege of settling this LITTLE
domestic difficulty in cur own way

These resolutions, writes the Men,b;.
AppeaFs correspondent, who favors ,bsr
strongly, were known as the "direc, trad.
resolutions" and were postponed in H.
business committee, and passed over from
time to time, until itiFas too late to debst.
them. They were, however, called for bv
the convention in the last hour of its 40.
sion, and would have passed but for II.
argument put forward by Gen Duff Greer
as chairman of the committee.
The position taken by Gen. Duff Green
was that-these resolutions were so fatal -
Northern commerce with the South "a
destructive of all the hope of New York
ever again participating in the importation
of our goods, in our wealth, through the
discount of our cotton bills and the con.
troll of our exchange, that to pass them
would be to prolong the war. The
direct trade resolutions, in fact, would
make any adjustment with the North i'm.
possible, and prevent any construction Of
the commercial and financial connections
between the North and South. These
views, suddenly put forward, had great
weight with the convention. All debate
being cut off by the nature of the motion
with which Gen. Duff Green closed the
argument, the "direct trade resolutions"
were tabled.
So even Duff Green, the South Carolina
fire-eater, desires a reconstruction Of the
Union! The Palmetto people whom he
represents are not So full of secessionism,
after all Very well. As men grow old.
er they are apt TO become wiser, and the
same IS true of communities.
