Original Aitochaph Letteii fhoji Thomas Jeffeiison.? We have been permittei! to copy the following original autjgraph letter from Tlios. Jefferson, now in the hands of Judge G. W. Thompson, and which has never before been published. It is addressed to Col. Wood, a Governor of Virginia, and explains itself: Richmond. Feb 21st, 17S1. To Col. TVood, a Oor'r of Virgin ia : Silt:?We consent to divide the Germans between Winchester, Martinsburgh and the I'.erklev Springs, till further notice, as proposed by you. 1 must get the favor of you to know from C>>1. Mingen, what sum of money by the fort night they will have occasion for, anil it will be sent either to the barracks in Albemarlejto any agent whom they shall leave there to settle their ali'airs, or to their quarters, (:n fact the meeting of the assembly on Thursday night is relied on to furnish us with money, of which we have not at present one shilling.) I will send to Baron Steuben the petition from the nine Germans; in the mean time yon will do well to leave them as you propose, under guard at the barracks We think our powers do not extend to the enlisting of the men of the regi ment of guards on the terms mentioned in your letter. Mr. Browne informs me that he sent the ?93, 000 to Mr. Jas. Hawkins three days ago, and will send the like suin by the bearer. I am, with much esteem, Sir, Your most obedient, humble servant, 'I'll. Jl'.KFI'ltSON. The following postscript we copied fiom Mr. ?Jefferson's own hand writing. As it has never before been published, it may help fill a link in the history of the times to which it relates: K S.?liy a letter from Gen. Greene, of the lath, lie was on this side the dam at Boyd's Kerry, and Cornwallis three miles on the other side. 1 am informed by a person who lelt Gen. Greene's camp on the l'Jth, that he had crossed Bannister, and led his mam body to the Halifax C House, his light infantry on the dam: and that Cornwallis was busily employed in making rafts, &i\, to cross on. Cornwallis'strength is 2300 regulars and 50 lories. Greene's 2000 regulars, lie had not yet been joined by 2imj militia. I hope, however, he will be fully rein forced in that way. Admiral Graves having lost his 74th in a storm; the French are became superior on the water, in consequence of which they detached a U4 and two frigates to our bay. They '.ay some days in James river, and 1 ex peet are now gone out to cruise off the capes, and intercept the communication between New York and Charleston. Tiie Panic on the Lonimin Stock Exchange? Tub Senseless Alarm or the London Times in Regard to the Kisso-Fiiench Convention? Tkkatv of Russia with Sardinia; Not with Frakck?Isolation of Austria. Correspondence of the New York Times: London, Friday, April 30 1850. The English money market has, during t'nc last two days, been the scene of one of the most remarkable and, 1 irnwt add, discreditable pan ics upon record, owing mainly, il not all togeth er, to the publication by the Times of certain statements regarding foreign affairs, now ascer tained to lie in the most part, entirely groundless. The brokers and speculators in the Share and Stock Nlaikcts bccoine seized with the wildest and most unreasonable alarm, from hour to hour the mania spread and grew more and more intense, until publ.c secuiities were dri/endown to the almost unprecedented extent of six per cent, in less than twenty four hours. i urklsh bonds, which stood on* I'nesday last at St. were unsaleable at -Jo. Every description of Conti nental stock fell in nominal value, as though Europe were wrapt in a blaze ol anarchic icvo lution. English railway shares suliered sympa thetically though to a less disastrous degtee; and wiiat may and will doubtless seein most in credible of ail". Consols not merely dropped sud denly as much as I have mentioned, lull there were moments during yesterday when they were literally unsaleable at any pi ice. 1 he ruin caus ed atrong the jobbers and dealers, as well as among sunie of the most respectable brokers, is lamentable. ] could mention instances of men whose wealth is notorious and whose character has never been doubted, who have been forced to suspend payment under the bewid.-iing pres sure they have thus suddenly been exposed to. As for the smaller people they "have gone" by scores. And now while the wrecks of credit still stand tiie golden strain, people wake up already from the senseless delusion and discover | that war has not yet begun after all in Italy; that the Anglo-French alliance offensive and defensive, has no existence in fact, that the Austri.ins bad not crossed tiie liciuo,'* nor are very likely to do so at present; and that tiie Russian Government is, like that of England, bent apparently on trying to put out the flame, lather than kindle it. 1 do not wish to be mis understood as saying that in this affront the Court of St. Petersburg will succeed. On the contrary, I am persuaded that war betwem France "and Austria is inevitable. But I have the strongest reasons for believing that the treaty which binds Russia to declare war against Austria within fifteen days after tiie invasion of Piedmont, was made w ith that State, and not with France, several months ago. At that time the Piedniontesc Government had begun to be alarmed as to the effect of their attitude on the temper of Austria, and they were naturally un willing to leave themselves w holly at themcicy of the Emperor of the French. It will turn out, ere long, that soon after the cession of the port of Villa Franca to the Czar, and while the Grand Duke Constantino was in Italy, the Convention was signed by which Kussia virtually undertakes to protect Piedmont against her hcl'iditary assailant. Nothing cm be more legitimate than such a compact or less calculated to preserve peace. It was, however, kept secret from the Couilof Vienna until about ten days ago; arid it was the unexpected revela tion of its purport that arrested the march of tile Austrian .troops when about to cross the I'icino. Their doing so would have constituted an immediate ccix'tr-it'lh, and exposed tiie wl'.o.e of their Galician and Hungaiiau frontier t<> at tack l.v Russia. As to the alleged treaty, o!!,n sive and defensive, by land and sea, between the Emperors Alexandria and N ip'olean, no ra tional man any longer gives it any credence. A Military Convention has, it is satd, been sign ed, whereby Russia undertakes to hold Prussia in check on the north east should Austria seek to draw her into the Italian <jnai:el. But Pius ( , j sia has her own reasons for wishing Austria no I j^reat good, and will hardly nee.' this forinioa hie le&trmnt. LTj?on the whole, there seems every reason t?? cherish a continuance of the hope that the North of Europe may he kept clear ot the imhroyles which in the South noth ing; but the sword can settle. *lt will be seen that several of this corres pondent's suppositions about the Austrinns not having crossed the Ticino, have turned out erro neous. What Hkoadway has to AsswF.it Fok.?A writer in the Xewaik Dally AdeertUtr remarks upon New York's principal thoroughfare: The ocean cannot he a more wondrous reve lation to a man from the interior, who beholds the magnificent expanse for the lirst time, than the .spectacle of Broadway in its afternoon ?lory is to tlie simple minded girl irnm the country village, on being ushered for the fir>t time into the gorgeous vista of men and women, horses and carriages in every possible variety of life and motion, accompanied with appuling sounds, and hemmed in by walls of maihle and stone, blazing in their fronts with pnM and silver wares, and splendid stulfs of richest dye, with every commodity ever conceived by man to wear, to taste, or to enjoy, by any of the senses. "It is not possible that this tremendous dis play of voluptuousness, beauty, fashion, frivolity ami vanity should not frerpie.itly touch, impress, aye, subdue the young heart. And it is known to be a fact that thousands of impressible natures are utterly changed from that moment, and be come confused in their perception and apprecia tion of material, mental, and moral objects, and never afterwards are able to resume that clear preference of the latter over the former, which was once so undoubted. Therefore we reiterate ? Uroadway has itiueh to answer f??r, it is thu great tempter to fashion, show, and consequent {extravagance in dress and living. The pictures j of dashing equipages, i ich and graceful costumes, are deeply daguerreotyped upon the soul, never to be eradicated. Kver afterwards, in their ideas of a happy domestic life, these brilliant objects will intrude oven into the quiet, secluded reces ses of rural i?o nes, and shape and color more or less their conduct, and future plans and expec tation s."
