A l**ttfr m the Boston Advertiser, dated Rome, March !
‘20th, thus descrilies the persm and manners of the pres
cut Pope :
Two days ago. I had the honor of a private present*
lion to his holiness. The dignity and simplicity of his
manners are v*-r\ striking. The gentleman w Im obtain- j
ed the an liHuei* for mo, an I who went to introduce me j
isariablnt. II.s holiness was standing by his table,
dressed m plain while rubes, and with a little white cap
covering the crown of hs head. My fnend prerisiml
me a little in entering the room, and when I halted with
in the door, and not far from it, to make my h »\v, the at>- ,
bolt was down upon Ins fjce.lrying to kiss the Pope’s i
fool, which, when he is standing,is no easy performance.
I believe I fallerel a little at sight of tins perfect pros |
tration, when lus holmes* addressed me briskly in
French, saying—** Come in, come in, my son,” at the !
same moment extending Ins right hand to me with an
inviting gesture, and evidently endeavoring to indm-e
my ghostly friend to make short work of diving at his
foot. I confess to kissing the Pope's ring, be tori! I
parted with his hand.
II** immediately began to speak "f the l nitsd States
said he was very hankful tor •the kind notice of him
which the people id' our country had taken said the
Government had s*»nt bi n some valuable hooks —that lie
was always happy to sen my countryman — that he
thought the hbertv and happiness of the people was*
cured in tin; IJ. S. 8cc 8cc. His Hoi incus is evidently
quite familiar w ith our pol iticnl history, and has a lofty
appreciation of the character of Washington. He man
Rested acquaintance with the great names of the past
and the present, and among the latter, spoke of Mr Web
ster, Mr Clay, and Mr Calhoun.
|u size, figure,and a certain brisk carriage of his per
son, Pius IX reminded me of (’haneellor Kent,of tw’en
t v years ago. 'l'lie expression of his countenance is that
of Milne'* and anxiety, and this I thought, was especial
ly manifested when allusion was made to the reception j
of his new constituti n ; and he replied: “It is very J
difficult to provide lor the wishes of all—in a case aucom
plex as that committed u» mv ehsrgv.
J have most at hear1,the spiritual interest of the people,
and what has now been done, I h »pe nnv promote that
ns well as their temporal happiness.” Soon after this,
we took our leave. 1 lis holiness gave me his hand a
gain, and obeying in >re the impulse of the moment than
the etiquette of the Court. I gavv it a rather smart re
publican shake, whereat, I thought the holy father took
no offence. Coudng out into the d»* wing rooms, I found I
a party «*( Knglisb and German* wailing to he presented
in a body, and as I had been called in first, and remain

most impossible to convict any one of murder who has
ever been guilty of a single act of folly. In this case,

Ler before von and the pn die with v »me coin men is At

iieema to l*e emitted to consideration.
I have to dav received from the acting partner of iinoth '
ar company of contractors formed at the North, an ah i
i'tact containing the principal heada of a proposal which
thev desire to submit to the hoard of Directors as soon j
is the i'ompany shall Is* orgams*’d. Tkes« contractors, ,
I am informed, are prepared lo oiler the moat iinqucstum
aide testimonials al lo character and responsibility, l'he
proposals are briefly as tollowa:
1st. 'The contnctnis rife willing to undertake the
whole line of improvement from tin*, in the Tennessee
line, at the lowest cash price, to be ascertained hy a com
patent F.ngincer wli » shall survey anil I irate tho route
2nd.—They are willing to subscribe to the stock of
the company to the amount of one third ..f tlm whole
costs of construction &.C., upon the f dl i .vi ig conditio n, I
lo wit;
1st. l’he company to raise by subscriptions or other
wise, the balance <>f the stock, say tint thirds, and toap* '
ply one half of the amount to the purchase of slaves, hy
wlmae labor they propose lo do tin* work. This invest
ment to he made in instalments in one and two year*
2nd. These operatives to remain llo* properly oftha
company unul the work shall Is* completed, subject to
the fd’owing conditions, to wit :
3rd. In the settlement between the company and the
contractors, w hi' h shall tin made at stated periods one,
two or three months—the amount of work actually coni
plot®*!, sIihII he ascertained by the F.ngmeer of the form
• r. and shall b*» j aid as follows: — One third in the stock
of the company subscribed by the contractors ; one thud
in the slaves purchased, at cost, and one third in in ui»*y
4th. This mode of payment to he nontinuud until the
whole work shall ho completed to tlm Tennessee hue —
the contractors to run all the risk of sickn -a* ami death
amongst the slaves, to hoar nil the <iponsesof their sup
port, Ike., and all depreciation m their value. So that
the company, when the work is completed, shall receive
full compensation for the outlay.
I hnse are the principal iioaus embrace ! in me nimtract
referred to. I submit them for public cotiaideration, hav
ing lung ontertHined the opinion that the elmaposl atul
best mode of carrying on works of internal improvement
in the slave .holding States, was by means of slave labor.
In this particular case there are some special consider
ationa which I trust I may be permitted to advert to with
eit being considered preaiitnp'Uotie.
If the State bail made the subscription of ihrtefxjVxs
as usual in similar cases, there would have been n« necst
sitv to look to other means or resources. It lias, how
ever, refused to do this: and while 1 by no inecne expect
that the Legislature will continue to pass by a work of
Such vast importance to the Slate, it may be as well t<>
anticipate the worst, and to cast about for other and less
problematical support.
Suppose the work to cost $2,400.000—one third of
this, ssy $800,000 would be at once subscribed by the
Contractors; and there would remain but $ 1,000,(K)0 to
be raised by the Company, running throogli a period,
say of Lor years, or $400,IKK) per annum. If the State
will ho! subscribe, will it not, at least, guaranty the
bonds of the Company for this amount 7 I cannot doubt
the fact, unless the Legislature is determined that the
resources of the Slate shall never hn developed, and that
no improvements shall ever be made far that purpose.—
This is an inference which common patriotism and com
m in sense repudiate at once. The Legislature will uu
duubtedly lend this incidental aid, even without the hy
pothecation of the stock,though that might safely be made
to ensure its co operation.
Again Vir/inii has slaves if she has not capital.— |
One third of the whole am unit of stork, by the above 1
proposals, will be paid in slaves, the contractors taking !
them nt prime cost. Now, hundreds of men who will I
not take sinck from want of money, would readily sub 1
scrilie could they meet their subscriptions by slaves at a j
reasonable value. Many.it is presumed, would bo glad
of surlifQM opportunity of converting their slaves into
slock; and the probability is that the whole amount pro
posed to be invested in slaves, would be thus raised by
I lie stockholders themselves, without the necessity of
borrowing money to purchase them. It would be the
most agreeable and the most profitable mode of getting rid
of die surplus of our slave labor.
Further,—and yet more important to the interests of
the Company, when the work shall have been coiupletod
to the Tennessee line, tin* wh do numVr of tin slaves
employed will beeoino the property of the contractors,
ih* y having paid their full cost to thn C unpany in labor
8tc. Tin* contractors will then hold $ *>X),fX)0 worth "f
stock, and have in possession $SLK)/X)0 worth of active
and etiisrienced operatives Th» ir Interests as Stock
holders, and their ulterior object as contractors look to the
completion of the road to Memphis on the Mississippi.
To this they have a double inolive, tn one of which all
; Stockholders are equally interested. To carry the work
on immediately to Memphis is. indeed, the prime object
of the contractors. They will become possessed of the
main operative machinery to effect tins end ; and will lie
driven forward by a double influence to do it as cheaply
and as speedily as possible. N\ ithout ibis ulterior pur
pose they would not, I am informed, undertake the work
it nil. I hey are tar stgliieil inen, amt iney porcue.
what every inan nut utterly bliml must see, that this
thoronghfire when e impleted to Memphis, most open
sources nf wealth which, in results, woitlil defy citleola
ti n. It would change the whole Bourse of trade and
Irasel—constiioling the great central line be'v pen the
valley of iltt Mississippi and the Ailanttn rttirs. The
Cotton nf Alabama, Arkansas and Missis-lppt—the Su
oars of Louisiana — the Reef, Pork and Flour of Missnti
n, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, Would no longer pass
through die Lakes or the Golf of Mexico to find a For
emn Market. This would furnish a cheaper, safer and
more expeditious route—while as to travel, tlm diflienl
lies of the Ohio, ami the dangers of the Lakes and the
1 Atlantic, would he entirely avoided.
| Or all these facts, the contractors, I presume, nr» even
I hotter informed Ilian weourselves are. They kn ,w toe
Ihe vast mineral and agricultural wealth of that region
of country through which the Road will pass — greaicr
hv far than any other of the same extent tn the I mm. -
Hence, 1 suppose, the several feature* contained in thr
proposals of ilits Company t.f contractors. They with,

Tin* approaches of Death arc unwelcome uml revolt
ing to human nature nt nil periods of life ; hut they ara
more particularly so, in the freshness aud bloom of
youth. When the aged, who have satiated their thirst
ut the fountain of this world’s pleasures.and wIioh# en
ergies, both mental and physical, have been exhausted
in their pursuit, are called to die, the struggle may not
be great. They may well be contnntod to retire from
A scene which they can no longer enjoy.
And *0 it is. to Home extent, with persons in middle
life,who have had even a moderate portion of the cares ,
and enjoyments of this world But when tlie young,
who have just entered upon the theatre of life, withe- |
liisti • step mid buoyant expectations, with tin* glow of
health upon their cheek, and tin* light of hope in their
eye, with no remorse for the past, but prospects of hap
pines* for tin* future—when these are culled so soon to
retrace their steps, ami to return to the dust, the sum
mons is unexpected, and tie- ng my it occasions must be
great. To ho man nature it is altogether irre.eoneila
ble. But there is that in Christianity which enables
its youthful possessor to transfer his hopes from earth
to heaven, and forego the uncertainties of the former
or the glorious realities of the latter.
These thoughts have been suggested by the brief
Christian experience and peaceful death of SI S.\ N
BBOW.Ni ADAMS, eldest child and only daughter of
Isaac and Susan K. Adams, f irmorly of Lynchburg, but
now of Appomattox county
Slie was horn on the ,30th of April. 1833, au<l died
on the Itith of May, ISIS—just upon the threshold of
her Kith year. 'Th*'natural nmiubleness of her dis
posit ion, and spright linens of her intellect won for
tier, even in childhood, the affection and admiration uf
all who knew her, and induced her parents to afford
her all the advantage* of the best culture, within their
reach. For this purpose, after they left Lynchburg,
they engaged the services ot n competent female teacher
at their private residence in the county of Appomattox.
And with those facilities,she was rapidly acquiring all
the advantages and ornaments of an accomplished
education. But there was wanting, tint “one thing
needful,”—to give polish and perfection to all the rest
of her acquirements, and to prepare her fully for the
duties of this life.nnd the enjoyments of a better. This
she sought nod obtained in the month of July list. On
the Tub of that month,it, was the happiness of the wri
ter of this tribute to her memory, to see her approach
the mercy seat, with several others of her school
I mates, ami give her young heart to God. The offering
I was accepted. For
“A flower when offered in the huti9
Is no mean sacrifice#’*
And soon the blossoms and fruits ot earlv piety,
began most beautifully to unfold and ripen,both in her
heart and life.
At this time, as previously, and for several months
afterwards, her constitution was linn, and her health
unimpaired. Hut, with the approach of Autumn, the
spoiler came, nud laid his blighting hand upon this
beautiful flower,and it showed symptoms of decay. On
the Kith of January she was laid low upon the. bed of
languiHhment. and for the space of four months, she
suffered a voryunooinmon and painful illness whh'h do
fled the assiduity and skill of all her physicians. It
1 was ascertained some two months before she died,that
i her disease was incurable end must eventuate in her
death. Although she had some apprehensions of this
fact herself, yet she was not definitely apprised of it,
until she happened on one occasion unintentionally to
J get hold of a letter which had been written by some
j member of tho family to a distant relation exprewing
the hopelessness of her situation. Soon after she had
read it. her father came into the room, and she said to
him with very great composure, Pti^hnir font/ ha* it
j been since thr Doctors rare w> nut / With a bleeding
i heart, he was constrained to give her the desired in
formation. She herself shed a feu* t* irs nnhjt and
then through grace, the struggle was over. From this
time she spoke of her death with as much calmness
us would have been manifested by a Christian of three
scores years and ten. As long as she had strength to
do it, much of her time in tho day was spent in reading
the Bible, both for her own comfort and for the in
struction of her nurse,an excellent female of the neigh
borhood, who was not herself abb* to read. And foi

PHILADELPHIA. May 20—2 P. M.
A fire occurcd last night which destroyed the ejtcn

Thompson and Conner, annate at the corner of Eleventh
street and Bulge R ind. Two large building* were oe
' rupied by thia establishment, both of which were entire

large and valuable stock olg.tod*. finished and tmfiuiah
ed. 'Pbe Marne* spread with fearful rapidity and it was
with much dificiilty & good exertions that the surround
mg property was saved. This is, if I mistake not, the
s'-ccoud time the property, or establishment here noticed
has suffered from fire. It is not js.sitifely known how
the fire originated, hut circumstances leave scarcely a
: doubt that it was the wo^k of an incendiary. 'Pile loss
