      The Tight Asd Slaughter Described By As ...

      THE TIGHT ASD SLAUGHTER DESCRIBED BY AS ETE W 1 TSES 3 . The following is an extract from a private letter : — «' Rangoon , April ICth , 1 S 52 . " Tbe ir ~ . 2 k has been ' done and Rangoon taken by storm . Our friend will no doubt give you an official account of all our goings on , by which you will see we rather astonished the natives with our heavy guns . Poor old Hoozuffer has been riddled with shot , jiujalls and muskot bills , and tbe fellows certainly opened a very pretty fire O • us under 200 yards , and as we had our whack of troops o board ( S 50 ) it was tbe greatest good piece of luck in the world tbat we had not more casualties . The Burmese fired low at first , and when they got their range , as good lack would have it , the tide feU . So to them it must have appeared as if the ships rode aad sank at pleasure , for as we fell with the tide their shot cut our rigging up a good deal . However , we did for the rascals , and astonished one beggar who took aim at whilst on the paddle-box with a shin ' s 9 nr .. missed his mark , and sent the shot hissing

      through the funnel . We in a very short time silenced the " Dalla" Stockade , and then took to shelling the forts on the other side of the river . The Feroze and Sesostris were in like manner on the same affair , but we had the brunt of it , a 3 0 | d will tell you when he sees yon . The slau » bter was immense inside all the Stockades , and in some of them we found tbe poor devils made fast to their guns with their heads off , whether by shots or Mardarins ' swords is another affair ; but there they were . At night the bowling of the dogs was most dismal . Here every house has afamily of them , which , like cats , stick more to the dwelling than the man who feeds them , and the yells at night sounded for miles and miles , and most have created a nasty sensation among the rest of the Burmese troops for , by " eight in tbe evening of Sunday , the Utb of April , all their Stockades had been burnt and destroyed as far as the shipping was concerned ; and the Stockades of the others inland as well as the Great Golden Pagoda was left to tbe soldiers . The Feroze and ourselves had to

      oroceed np tbe Kemmendine to tbe support of the Serpent and Phlegethon . However , these big steamers they dread , and so our friends the Burmese cutout of the Stockade , and gave as the trouble of shelling and storming the place without a soul in it . Tbe next thing we did was to shell the new town and Pagoda , and for forty-eight hours the Burmese saw nothing but falling stars and bursting meteors . They certainly must have thought us devils , for shells , shrapnel ) , carcase , and rockets were falling all round them ; and tbe place actually stinks from tbe dead and dying , Bat on tbe 14 th the place was stormed and taken , and it was a pretty sight to see the Woongees , or chiefs , running about with gilt umbrellas , encouraging tbe fellows to fight , which they did right well supported by some European deserters .

      However , the thing is over , and no doubt the despatches will teU for the rest . Since leaving Madras we have been as it were in a whirlpool ; and when we ceased firing the other day it appeared unnatural , and having got rid of the troops tbe ship appeared deserted . "We are now falling back into our old ways . I fancy we shall be back with you by the middle of May . The ships are all healthy and busy , but the cholera has broken out amongst the troops ana " in some of her Majesty's ships and tbe Berenice . I do not know if it is of a serious kind . The troops onshore did not take off their clothes for four days . This is a moet beautiful country ; green forests , trees , and verdure ; and we cannot have burnt less than 100 , 000 spars as big as our mainmast . "

      Commercial Affairs In The Totted States ...

      COMMERCIAL AFFAIRS IN THE TOTTED STATES PROBABILITY OF A "SMASH . "

      Jew York , May 15 th , 1 S 53 . Since American credit was restored in Europe by the redemption of bonds which were at one time repudiated , such has been the general prosperity of the country that we have bad unbounded credit at home and abroad . But we have now reached a period where speculation in almost every department of business and of commerce has gone so far tbat a crisis must be soon reached . There is nothing alarming at the present time in the state of our indebtedness to Europe , and this will only be an incidental cause of embarrassment when our affairs begin to go wrong at home . That time , however , will doubtless soon come . I will specify more particularly the grounds upon which I have formed such an opinion . It apoears by the statistics of tho last census , that in

      January , 1852 , there had already been completed 10 , 814 miles of railroad in the United States . 10 , 900 miles more are cow in process of construction , and a very larire portion of these roads will be completed ( unless some great financial crisis arrives ) during the nest three years . All this indicates great prosperity ; but it should not be forgotten tbat these roads are not constructed as they arc in other countries ; for here the vast proportion of means relied npon for building them Is obtained upon credit ; Of all the American railroads now in process of construction , or those which have been recenthy completed , not one mile in . fire baa bees built with the capital stock of the road itself ! If , for instance , a road is to cost a million of dollars , it is considered sufficient to organise the company with a capital of 250 , 000 dollars , and then issue bonds and raise the

      balance by loans . In a considerable number of instances , as in tha Erie Railroad for example , three , four , and often fire times as much money is raised by bonds as is paid in by stockholders . In this manner it is estimated that an amount of 100 , 000 , 000 dollars has been raised during the last five years ; and in a considerable number of instances in has been proved that the interest upon the money so borrowed has been paid out of the instalments of the original stockholders—thus eating up the bona , fide capital of the road to pay the interest of the money it had borrowed . I estimate that probably not less than seventy or eighty millions of dollars advanced in loans of this description hare no permanent security to rest -upon , and that either repudiation or annulment by due process of law is as inevitable as that a man who dies insolvent must leave some of

      his creditors to suffer . The scale npon which speculations of this kind are now going on in America is stupendous beyond conception . The estimate of value now attached to American property of every description is exaggerated beyond precedent . Broadway , the principal avenue through the city of Sew York , presents this spring a curious and brilliant , but an ominous spectacle . Real estate in this city has nearly , if not quite doubled , during the last twelve months , and it lias quadrupled during the last five years . Property which five years ago produced in rents but 2 , 000 dols . a-yearis now , with new and enlarged buildings , producin g from 10 , 000 to 16 , 000 dolls . Multitudes of merchants who formerly transacted as large a business as they now do in buildings where they paid from 700 to 1 , 200 dollars per annum are now paying from 3 , 000 to 7 , 000 . Six or eight of the largest and most magnificent hotels in the world are now in process of construction in Broadway , every one of of which , I believe , is built and furnished with borrowed

      money . Steamboats , ships , clippers , and everything that can float on tho ocean , are seized hold of tbe moment they come in Bight , and purchased either on time or on borrowed money Tbe banks nave extended enormously in their issues The controller of New York city , who manages finances more extended than those of some of the kingdoms of Emope told me a few days ago that he could borrow as many mill lions as the city of Sew York would call for at less than five per cent , per annum . Money is indeed abundant ; it never was so much so , in vast sums , where there is complete security ; as , for instance , there is , for the scrip and stock of the State and City of Sew York ; for here , in * ood faith , and to answer the demands of capital , legislation has accorded securities which are beyond the reach of accident , the revenues , for instance , of the canals , the docks , wharfs , piers , public buildings , and all public works . But the completeness of this kind of security for soma of the

      money that has been borrowed has only deluded and beguiled thousands of others into loans which are really based npon no security whatever . When I state tbat I have myself , within a few days , known of \ ery large sums of money loaned out on bonds and mortgages on property in this city to a greater extent than the property itself would have sold for five or six years ago , I state a fact wmcu will at once show any safe capitalist that the first shock of a commercial revulsion would render these securities entirely uncertain . 1 have written this because my views are the result of 2 o « rPv „» r ^ """""" firo or . these matters whi ch the most experienced and enlightened men in this COttBtry 5 L ™?

      " "V - Brt In* K Whale !"-In Eiderstedt ...

      " " v - BRT in * k Whale !" -In Eiderstedt there was a miller v ? bo had tbe misfortune to have his mill burnt every Christmas eve . lie had , however , a courageous servant wno undertook to keep watch in tbe mill on that portentous night . He kindled a blazing fire and made himself a good ketilefulof porridge , which he stirred about withala . ge ladle . He had an old sabre lying by him . Ere long there came a whole regiment of cats into the mill , and he neara one say in a low tone to another , " Jlousekm I go and set by Hanskin ! " and a beautiful milk-white cat came creeping softlv to him and would olnce herself by his side . At Wis , oit

      taking a ladleful of the scalding porridge , hedasueuna face , then seizing the sabre ,. he cut off one of her paws , ine cats now all disappeared . On looking at Jhe paw more at . tentively , he found , instead of a paw , that it was a woman s delicate hand , with a gold ring on one of the angers , whereon was his master's cypher . Next morning the miuer s wife-lay in bed and would not rise . " Give me thy hand , wife ! " said tbe miller . At first she refused , but was obliged at length to hold out her mutilated limb . \> nen the authorities got intelligence of this event , the woman was burnt for a witch . —Northern Mytliolooy .

      TBE MILLER'S DAUGHTER . It is the miller's daughter , And she is grown so dear , so dear , That I would be the ' jewel Tbat trembles at her ear ; Tor bid" in ringlets day and night , I'd touch her neck so warm and white , And I would be the girdle About her dainty , dainty waist , And her heart would beat against me In sorrow and in rest , And I should know if it beat right : I'd clasp it round so close and tight . And I would be the necklace , All day long to fall and rise Upon her balmy bosom With , her tester « v her sighs ; And I would lie so light , so light , I scarce would be unclasped at night .

      China . —Foreigners who know nothing about the internal state of the countrv , are apt to imagine that there reigns lasting peace . Nothing is , however , more erroneous : insurrections of villages , cities , and districts , are of frequent occurrence . The refractory spirit of the people , tho oppression and embezzlement of the mandarines , and other causes , such as dearth and demagogues , frequently cause an unexpected revolt . In these cases , the destruction of property and hostility against tbe rulers of the land ( especiaby if these have been tyrants ) is often carried to great excess : there are instances of the infuriated mob broiling their magistrates over a slow fire . . On tbe other hand , tbe cruelty of government when victorious , knows no bounds : the treatment of political prisoners is really so shocking as to be incredible , if one had not been an eye witness of these inhuman deeds .

      FosiiNELLE , when verv old , was placed by the side of Madame de Froidment , who was ninety-five . "Ah ! my poor old shepherd ! " said she to him , tossing her head , and lisping slightly , " Hew old we are getting ! " ' , Hush ! Death forgets us , " said Fontinelle , putting bis finger on his lips . CoMPEimos . —Sweet com petition ! Heavenly maid . — Now-a-davs alike by penny-a-liners and philosophers as the ground of all society—the only real preservers ot the earth . Why not of Heaycn , too ? Perhaps there is competition among the angels , and Gabriel and Raphael have won their rank by doing the maximum of worship on the minimum of grace ? We shall know some day . In the meanwhile , "these are thy works , thou Parent of all good ! " Man eating man , eaten by man , in every variety of degree and method ! Why does not some enthusiastic political economist write an epic on " The Consecration of Cannibalism ?" There are two things which oug ht to teach us to think meanly of human glory—tbe very best ^ have had their calumniatorsthe very worst their panegyrists .

      , The debauchee offers up his body as a " living sacrifice at the shrine of Sin . " We most readily forgive tbat attack which affords as an opportunity of reaping a splendid triumph . A wise man will not sally forth from his doors to cudgel a fool , who is in tbe act of breaking bis windows , by pelting them with guineas . Wb ask advice , but we mean approbation . It is much easier to ruin a man of principle , than a man o ! none , for he may be ruined through his scruples . Knavery is supple and can bend , but , honesty is firm and upright , and yields not . Br . Jobsson was asked by a lady , what new work he was employed about ? " I am writing nothing just at present , " he replied . " Well , but , Doctor , " said she , "If I could write like you , I should be always writing , merely for tho pleasure of it . " " Pray , Madam , " retorted he , " Do you think that Leander swam across the Hellespont , merely because he was fond of swimming ?"

      Thb Italians have a story that a nobleman about to celebrate his marriage feast , wanted a fish , which could not be procured . At length a poor fisherman made his appearance with a turbofc so large , it seemed to be created for the occasion . Oa being asked the price of it , he replied , " One hundred lashes on my bare back is tbe price of my fish , and I will not bate a stroke . " Remonstrance was in vain , and at length the nobleman consented to pay in that coin . After fifty lashes bad been administered , the fisherman exclaimed , " Bold , hold , I have a partner in this

      business who has to receive the other fifty as bis share . " What , " cried the nobleman , "Are there two such mad caps iu the world ? Name him . " " He is the porter who stands at your gate , " said the fisherman . ' - ' He would not let me in until I promised him half what I should receive for my turbot . " " Oh , oh , " said the nobleman , "Be shall receive his half with the strictest justice . " The fisherman was amply rewarded . HAsir people drink the nectar of existence scalding hot . The most effectual way to secure happiness to ourselves is to confer it upon others . .

      OrjR minds are like ill-hung vehicles , when they have little to carry they raise a prodigious , clatter , when heavily laden they neither creak nor rumble . What we wish to do we think we can do , but when we do not wish a thing it becomes impossible . Free Deyelophekt of Max . —If I were to express in a line what constitutes the glory of a state , I should say it ia the free and full development of humannature . Tbat country is the happiest and noblest whose institutions and circumstances give the largest range of action to the human powers and affections ; and call forth man in all the variety of bis faculties , and feelings . That is the happiest country whero-there is most intelligence and freedom of thought , raost ^ affection aad lore , most imagination and taste , most industry and enterprise . O . NE half of mankind pass their lives in thinking how they shall get a dinner , and the other in thinking what dinner they shall get .

      In speaking of a learned sergeant , who gave a confused , elaborate , and tedious explanation of some point of law , Curran observed , " That whenever tbat grave counsellor endeavoured to nnfold a principle of law , be put him in mind of a fool whom he once saw endeavouring a whole day to open an oyster with a rolling pin . " A sailor , sat in a shaver ' s shop , at Shields , when the mistress of the pole shouted down stairs to her liege lord , inquiring why everybody in the streets were gazing in the sky ? " Ob 1 " cried Jack , taking tbe answer out of her husband ' s mouth , and a handful of soapsuds from bis own , " it ' s only the moon , ma ' am , that ' s broke adrift and got athwart the son . It'll all be right by-and-bye , if the old boy only puts the helm bard oyer . " He shut his mouth profoundly , and looked up at the flabbergasted barber , whose razor and reason shook before the unshaved sage .

      EXTRACTS FROM PD . VCH . No Conscript Fathers . '—Among the exemptions from the conscription under tbe Militia Bill we observe is included , " Any poor man having more than one child born in wedlock . " If a poor man wishes to be a man of peace it ought to be enough for him to hold out a single olivebranch : we don ' t see why ho should be obliged to produce two . '' .. '"' Removal . —The Crystal Palace , from Hyde Park , ' to Sydenham , for change of air .

      Coioon . son an American ' s Remark . —The American Minister , dining with the Fishmongers , is reported to have said , " This corporation has tbe honour of numbering among its members the man who slew Wat Tyler . " It seems strange that an American should have sympathised against , instead of with , the patriotic blacksmith ; but perhaps that anomaly may be explained by the supposition that he did not reflect tbat a black smith is not necessarily a nigger . Sale of tub Souli- Gallery . —The spoils of Soult ' s Spanish campaign have , been sold within the past few days in Paris . The papers speak of the crowds that beset the

      place . At a certain time came the President to look at the works ; when the scrgens-de-viWe , much to the disgust of the Parisians , entered and cleared a way for the ruler of France . Louis Napoleon was highly delighted with many of the paintings ! Now as they were nearly all of them originally stolen , we wonder whether the admiration of the President was raised more by tbe works themselves than by the means by which they were obtained ? Any way , it was a proper tribute to the memory of the plunderer of Spain tbat his moveables should be duly considered by the burglar of France .

      Fire-Alarm Telegraph. —The People Of Bos...

      Fire-alarm Telegraph . —The people of Boston are constructing a fire-alarm telegraph . Forty-nine miles of wire have been stretched over the city , diving under the arm of the sea which separates the main portion from South and East Boston . The first of the forty cast iron signal-boxes has been placed on the Reservoir in Handeock-streer . These will be so distributed that every house in the city will be within fifty . rods of one . Whenever a fire occurs , resort will be had to the nearest box , where , by turning a crank , instantaneous communication will be made to the central office , and from ; that—which stands related to the whole fire departments of the city like the brain of tbe nervous system—instant knowledge will be communicated to the seyen districts into which the city is divided , by so striking the alarm-bell simultaneously that the locality of the fire will be known exactly to all . This sy . -tera , the perfeet success of which is now certain , will stand forth as one of the finest achievements of scientific skill , and a SOarce of just pride to Boston . —Scientific American .
