By a despatch ?firom Memphis, it seems that-the Martlia Patnem was burned at Cairo', and is a total loss. i j The Martha did a good deal of business jilt su'r;wharf here, and was a favorite with shippers. S< Odb Washington despatches state that jv the affair between Grow, of Pa:, and y- Branch, of N. C., the two members who had words in the House, last week, lias been settled by the police, instead of at ten paces, or, by the amende honorable, as the law directs. We are sorry for. this. A duel was nced od at Washington to clear up the political . ? atmosphere, and bring about a speedy or ganisation. A trifle of spare blood from ^either aids,would have assisted materially. Remrhb&r thai the first of a "series of three lectures by the Rev. J. Marks/ before the Young Men's Christian Association, comes off to night, at the Second Presby terian Church. The subject matter is a visit to Egypt, comprising details of ob servations among the Pyramids?along the Nile?among the Arab villages, fcc. Mr. Marks enjoys an enviable reputation among the newspapers as a lecturer, and ive hope and expect to see a fine turu out. Odb friends B. B. Stone & Son, formcrly of the ;'Big Boot" up at the Bridge cor ner?late of Cleveland?are with us once again, and have installed themselves in the magnificent building opposite the Mer _ chants' Bank, on Monroe street, where they propose to maKe anil ?f r?0, and Shoe work. In another column they make their debut, andave call public at tention to the facts therein set forth. The Messrs. Stone are well known to our public as gentlemen of the strictest in tegrity and as apt and accommodating in their business. Wo welcome them back again. The Democratic Senators have given all the good places on the Senate's commit tees to their own side. They forget that tbe.time i3 fast coming when it will be in .. the power of the Eepulicans to retaliate. Let them look at what the Senate was five year? ago, aud, contrasting that with what is, behold in advance the hour that is hastening on, and the men for it. In terest should teach them to be liberal in their conduct, if they Jliave no regard for principle. We hope they'll be manly enough not to whine when they shall be seized up for punishment. Fifty-Nine hris gone and sixty come -Since our last issue. The passage of time over the heads of humanity is generally ?reckoned to be a matter of doubtful com pliment or congratulation, and therefore, we shall simply wish our readers A Happy New Year. This year of 18C0 is to be an eventful year, we have no doubt. It is one of the Twenties. Eighteen hundred was a mo mentous year in this country; so wiis 1820; so 1840; and so will be, we say, this 18U0. The greatest political contest that was ever . fought on this continent is to be one of *"the events. 'JUuy!J fit Come what may, the prayer of every patriotic heart will be, God save our native land from every danger! Browne, editor of-tKe Washington Con stitution. chief democratic organ of the na tion, is charged with having applauded Mr. Crawford, of Georgia, when that gen tleman made his disunion speech in the House. Had a Republican thus acted, the last of it never would have been heard of, while the last of him ? would soon have come about; but as Browne is an Irish man and a democrat, he has a double right to be a disunionist, and a disturber of the peace. He is one of those Hibernians to _?-whom lawlessness is first nature, and who carry the Tipperary code of morals with them wherever they go. The much talked of Kuropean Congress will meet in Paris, this week?on the 5th, but is not expected to go fairly at work before the middle of the month. Thus in three years, tho French will have seen two Congresses meet in their capital. The first settled the Russian question, and ena bled Napoleon III. to return the favor ' which Russia showed to France in 1815, . ?when slie saved that kingdom from par tition, Austria, Prussia, Spain, and other j nations being desirous to cut up "that hid eous country which calls itself (a belle France." England helped'Russia then, but France helped Russia in 185C, and would . not suffer England to humiliate her. She was allowed to stand pretty much as she stood in 1853. Now Austria's time has come, and we shall see how far she is to Tie saved from humiliation. She wisbss to have the Italian question settled in such manner ns she will be able to get back her old position in Italy at some futnre day.? There is, we see, n story that Napoleon III. lias bought Yenitia from Austria, for the I round sum of ?80,000,000 ; and if this b? true, Austria may have come to the sensible C conclusion to have nothing more to do with ?V Italy, a conclusion that would be the be ginning of a wiser system on her part than she has ever yet pursued, and which .would render her Indifferent to the dispositions that might be made of the Duehies, though she must ever, while n Catboliu. Power, feel an interest in the welfare of Rome. 1 Gerbit Skits has so nearly been resto* ^N^red to health, that he returned to his home ? t Peterqoro' by the desire of his nearest (S~ and dearest friends, and the approval of k b.'-^hyslcian. iiii 'ifi Tne following pen portrait of Governor Wise is from the leading article in the last New York Courier ?J- Engwer, edited by James Watson Webb, wlio was associated with Wise in th6 famous Graves-Oilley duel, and vwbo hM the credit of having been a master spirit amongHhe politicians at Washington, in days gone by. It prob ably should bo taken with some grains of allowance, as it is possible there may be a trifle, of personal feeling in it. ,&'ebfe U of the opinion that Governor Wise is anything bntrrhathis name importk: and is known to be as great a bag of wind as ever mounted a stump to play the Harlequin and render himself ri diculous; and he is witbal, save that he posses a southern smattering of the clas sics, as ignorant as he is vain and pom pous. " But he knows the people among whom his life has been spent and over whom lie. presides; and lie accordingly, merges his own opinions?if settled opin ions he ever had upon any question?in the opinions and sentiments ol those by i whom lie is surrounded Doubtless he i3 j just as ready at this day, to raise an army, seize upon the U. S. Arsenal at Harper's Kerry, and then march upon Washington, take possession of the public treasure and public archives, and set up a Southern Confederacy, as he was in 185G, when he threatened to do ail these things in the event of Freeinont's election by the Re publican Party. He. is not one whit more honest, more patriotic, or more devoted to the Union now, than he was then. Al ways a rash and impulsive political adven turer, without brains or ballast of any kind, and ready to threaten the perpetra tion of any absurdity against both the Constitution and the Laws, he is as perfect a political weathercock of the public sen timent by which he is surrounded, as it is possible to conceive. And therefore it is, that we hail with pleasure his recent speech to the .jnedioal students who thought proper to withdraw from the Phil adelphia school*. The Senate Committees.?The Cincin nati Enquirer (Democratic paper) says: "We regard the composition of the Sen ate committees as an unmitigated political outrage. The chairmanship of every com mittee of any importance was given to a Southern Democrat. No Democrat from a free State was assigned any leading posi tion. The whole programme was section al in the extreme. The Southern Demo crats were neither just, generous, nor themselveTafl ffie ftm&PHWK&WMr Senate. While the Democrats arc oppo sing tho Republicans as sectional party, i* does not look well to see them fill all the Senate committees up with chairmen takou from one secti n of the Union. The free Sates have Democratic Senators that are well qualified, by ability aud long ser vice in that body, for the highest positions and there is no excuse for such an unequal arrrangemcnt. The designers of that pro gramme could not have assisted the Re publicans more effectual!? than they have by iguoring the existence of^ Democratic Senators from the free States." An Alabama gentleman, a member o! that state's Senate, is shrewder than most of his associates. He is for dissolving the Union, aud that immediately, for, says lie, if the Republicans should get possession of the national government, they would divide the South, by giving more offices to soutiLcrn men tliau to Northern men. He therefore, is not for waiting for any overt act on the part of the North, well knowing that no such act will ever be per petrated, but would break up the old firm immediately. He is a dashed sensible fel low, and knows both the Soulh and North well. ^ <| More cider is now made in Connecticut than in any other State. The New Ilaven Journal says, in the town of Cheshire, within a few milc3 of tl it city, four estab lishments have made the past season from 1500 to 2000 barrels each, which is already disposed of, and vill be sent to market as soon as ready for use. This, when clari fied, is as pure as -.vice, and is sold readily in New Nork to bottle, for $4 per barrel for the liquid, aud when bottled is in great demand at the South at $5 per dozen. The business is rapidly increasing. Mr. Everett uas contributed to the Mount Vernon Association, through his \ personal efforts, nearly $70,000. The j Association has paid to Mr. Washington $139,931?due Mr. W. $GU01. The Re gent states that it is necessary yet to raise tho sum of $120,000 in order to provide a permanent fund, tho interest of which will be expended in keeping the estate in repair and in providing a force sufficient to pro tect and preserve tho house and f ounds in security, enforce order, &c. The Cherokees arc do 'nri lit Native Americans. Thv-'r coun -il lately passed an act forbidding free negroes a residence in their territory, but their Chief vetoed it The Indian hates the African, and the African returns the compliment. Black nnd Red don't harmonize morally, though there are few prettier combinations of colors than that which they make. The price of gas in Syracuse was $'J,50 ! per 1,000 feet. The question was agitated I n that city of starting a new gas Co., ! wheu the Directors of the old Company | met and reduced th<5 price to $3 per 1,000 , feet. i i The cheapest gas in the United States : is sold at Pittsburg,' at $1,00 per 1,000 ! feet.

[From the Cincinnati Commercial!) The young men of Virginia who went a sobering to Charlestown, did so of course lit considerable personal los3 and incon venience. The Richmond Enquirer learn* with deep regret th?t some of them will not b"e paid by their employers fortUe time during which tliev were absent. This is a tearful thing, to be sure. There were men in Virginia, in Richmond, business men, men of station and stake in the conirauni ty, y/ho absolutely refused to pay their employees, "who strayed oif to the wars, full wlMiljl daring the campaign. Cer tainly there is a terribly significant want ot patriotism in this conduct. Rut there is n bright side to the picture. The Enquirer saJ"s: . /?? J A member of the Montgomery Guard. employed by a dry goods firm on Pearl street, in this ciiy, while on duty at Har per's Ferry, received a letter from his em ployers here, in which were the following sound Southern sentiments : "We are glad to learn that you are still alive, and have not been captured b\ the Abolitionists. We hope you will remain at your post, and see every one of that traitorous crew well hanged, and any other Vaukee that maybe found prowling about, and that cannot give a good account o! themselves. Although very busy, we do not want you to return until you are order ed to do so by the Coinmatidc-iii-Chicf of the Virginia forcc?. "We have 6eut jon the money you re quired by Mr. . If you need any more, let us know and wc will send it to you." It will be observed that the dry goods firm was filled vith apprehension that the gallant clerk .vould never return. They were glad to learn that he had not been killed or captured by the Abolitionists. l'hink of the sufferings of the poor wives and children of the soldiers who were braving such perils on the dangerous fron tier! The Enquirer, in conclusion, puts the case forcibly thus: "We sincerely hope that not a single man who went hence to the "scat of war" will feel the loss of a cent by such an action on '.heir part. Indeed, wc would he very much inclined to suspect the soundnosaot in employer who would, under such cir :umstauces, either oppose their employee's joing. or curtail their salary for the period jf their absence." And a man had better be suspected ot murder, than accused of unsoundness 111 Virginia to-day. 1 Great deal or Trutli In a few Wora*. [From the Indianapolis Journal.] "I have, Mr. Clerk, been a member of o learn nm.Tytl.TngS wlrt ry t' uivo learned at home, and 1 think it has icrfccted my education on this point, 1 inve learned that a man may support a ?ry measure of a Democratic Administrat ion, and vet if lie votes against a sing e merest of slavery lie is, ,j>so facto, no Democrat; but if he votes against ev-.y measure of the Administration and will lUStain the interests ot slavery, he , '/<? facto, a good Democrat. I put that CJod's naked truth before this House, and neforc the country, and I intend to stand upon it as a solemn conviction. /'??? oi' Mr. Ilickman in Conyress. It it -the naked truth," and any man can stand upon it till God's truth tails. A man rote and speak against every meas ure of the Democratic party that does not affect slavery, and if he only supports one single measure that aids Fla\ery, good Democrat. If he opposes any meas ure benefitting slavery, uo ma er h v faithful in all else, lie is read out of the partv, and only readmitted by humbling himself as Douglas has done. The whole country knows this, aud therefore knows that slavery is actually the controlling ami guiding principle or Democracy, bound less or unsoundness, faith and treachery, are measured by adherence or opposition to this one principle. Democracy theire* fore, is the party of slavery, klave'y is its life and binding power. Slavery is its breath and blood, and every man who ad heres to that party ???? is giving his whole power to the nationalization of slater}. its adoption as a national institution, and its establishment as the predominant power of the Government to which every 1-ree -State interest must succumb. jerked Men of the House. The Washington correspondent of the Ohio Slatetman, writes: The marked men of the House are soon recognized. John Quincv Adams' son is there. He sits quietly on a back seat near the middle door, bald headed, rather aus tere in look, but not quite so crabbed in demeanor as was his father, lie is said to be a fine debater, but as yet has taken no part. As au offset to him and not unlike him?is Houston, of Alabama?as he comes in, jolly enough, singing almost au diblv to the galleries, the song, '-Few dajs Few days." with special reference to the coming mid continuing contest for . pcakcr. Then are pointed out the black headed, black bearded, black-republicanized Grow, of Pennsylvania; then John Sherman, with pale face, close, firm pressed lips and anxious bearing; then Keitt, tearing ,around as usual, clever to all and keitt at all times, sobered some by marriage, But ew deutly Keitt still; then o.d lhaddcus Ste vens, with his unfortunate lame or game foot, wiff and severe front, as if ready to '?ctiss" Locofocos with a whereas; then Corwin, as mild and bland in his nmiaole demeanor, as if he had not a forty orator and hundred clown power in that swart visage and on that ready tongue. \Vlnl?e?lt had lieen held lt? Wheeling. [From the lloetoii Traveler.) It ha? been decided, by the Republican National Committee, that their party's Na tional Convention shall meet 011 the l.#th of June. 180-0, at Chicago. Thus nn inter val of nemly two months will elapse be tween the nomination of the democratic candidate and that of the Republican can didate for the Presidency, which is well. Chicago is a good place for the Convention to meet in, but we wish that Wheeling had been selected, for it is the best point in tnanv respects, nnd we should have been clad" to see a Republican Convention as semble ou Virginia soil;?but it is too late to talk about the matter now. The Brown foray made it impossible to select U heel A late assessment of Memphis, Tenn. shows that, thera uro three men who own property in that city to the amount ot over Trnlf a million of dollars; tw-dvo .who pay taxes on over 100,000; fifteen who pay taxes for over S75.000; and forty two on $30,000 and upward.
