The following Is no doubt funiliar to tnsnv of our reader, but it is so well calculated to mke the rising generation proud of tha noble apirils who shed so much luxtnr on their country's name duiing memorable war ol 1812, with the then the proud mistress of the teas, that It will bear re-publication at least once year: ''The most brilliant naval action of the last war undoub'edly was that of the old American frigate Constitution, (41) commanded by Commodore Stewart, when she captured the two British corvettes, Cyan and Levant, of superior force, each of them beinij equal to the old fashioned thirty three gun frigates. The handling of the frigate was throughout scientific and unexceptionable. "By no manoeiivering could either of the British vessels obtain a position to rake tho Consti(qtion. Shift their ground as they wo'd Old Ironsides was between tbein biasing away upon both vessels at the same time. During the wh'.Ie action, Stewart, iaitead of mounting the Horseblock, satin a more exposed sit nation astride of the hammock nettings, the better to observe the maneuvering of his antagonist. The Cyane was the first to strike to brother Jonathan not an nnusual thing with British vessels during tba war. The first Lieutenant came in haste to the Cummo dors to announce that fact. "The starboard ship has struck, sir,' said the officer, 'I know it, sir," replied the Com-modore. 'The battle is half won.' 'Shall I order the band to strike up Yankee Diodle, sir?" inquired the Lieutenant Here the Com-modore took a huge pinch of snuff and an-sweredojuickly. Had we not better whip the other first, sir?" be replied. The Lieutenant" taking the bint, went to his quarter. In a short time afterward the Levant lowered the cross of old England to the stars and stripes, and the battle was ended. The Lieutenant being somewhat rebuked at his premature ex ultation upon the surrender of the first vessel, was rather shy of approaching bis commander again; but Stewart, beckoning to him, said with a smile, "Don't you thin the bind had better strike tip Tankee Doodle now, sir?" In an instant the spirit-stirring strain was floating in the breeze played as no other than a Y inkee band can play it, and the gallant crew shout, ed forth their cheers of victory as no other than a Yankee crew can shout." Anecdote of Gov. Seward. The New York Herald's London correspondent relates the following adocdote respecting Governor Sewaid's presentation to Queen Victoria: "Before closing I must relate an anecdote Qavaraor. Seward tells himsalf with much gusto. When the messenger reached him announcing that Her Majesty had fixed an hour for his audionca.the Governor was at the Derby races with Lird Napier and other distinguished members ol the nobility. Her Majesty had fixed the audience for that very dayt and the Governor's Court dress had not yet been ordered. What was to be done? Lord Napier was consulted? In a few moments Lord N, and Gov. S. were seen flying towards London as Cast as whip and wheels could car ry them. The city gained, thay soon reached the shop of Prince Albert's tailor. A court suit wss ordered to be made in two hours time. Tha tailor demurredsaid that he could do wonders, but that wss impossible. But happy man that he is, he was never with out an expedient The Governor was requir ed to strip off his black pants, and with one dash of the shears off rame the legs of the pants at the knees. There stood the Senator in his drawers, coat snd hat. Whisk went the tailors! The gold knee buckles, diamond clasps snd rosettes were adjusted; the long drawers and boots gave place to silk stockings and pumps ornamented with elegant buckles similar to those st the knees. Next went on an exquisite cambric shirt, with ruffled bosom and wristbands, claimed gold buttons, set in diamonds.

And bright upon my memory no v are their loved laces beaming. Hut oh! amid them all, thine own is beaming brightest, with our dear child in your arms. Words have no power to ell tho strength and depth of that Inve I bear for my boy and thee. Nor havj they power to tell my deep regret for every harsh or ungentle word I ever gave to thee. And the memory (jl every unkind act, like Kun-quo's ghost, is with me nmo to tell me of the wrong. But oh! for every unkind act and each ungentle word, I humbly ask forgiveness. And I feel and know thy deep devotion and thy love wil". pardon all. Forgive iny errors all my faults forgive, and love me still, although I wear a pritnnrr's chain. You know that in the scheme which has resulted in tho dealh of most of my compan ions, snd which has made me a prisoner, tint I was actuated only by the temlerest feelings of sympathy and humanity. I had been led to believe, as had my companions, that it wits the daily prayer and life-wish of the masses of the slaves lor freedom. That they were groaning beneath the yoke of oppression, with no hand to aid them, or point them to the light of freedom. I knew how dear my own freedom was to me, and every sympathy of my heart was aroused for them. It hnd been represented to me and my comrades that when once tho Bonnet of Freedom should be raised, they would fl ick to it by thousands; and that their echoing shout of Fieedoin would be borne by the breeze ;to our most Southern shore, to tell ol freedom I here. I gfve my heart and hand to a work which 1 deemed a noble and a holy cause. The, result has proved that we were deceived; that the masses of the slaves did not wish lor Ireedom. There was no rallying bueath our ner. We wore left to meet tbe conflict all. alone, to dare, and do, and die. Twelve of my companions are now sleeping with the damp mould over them, and fine are inmites of these prison wall. We have been deceived, but found out our error when too late. Those who are dead died like brave men, though mistaken. Those who still live will not shame, I trust, their comrades, who are gone. If tboy, too, must die, I hope thtv will moet it in a way tntt will prove them worthy of abetter fate. Let not the world judge them too harshly for whatever wrong they have Jone, for thsy but erred upon the side of sympathy and love. It was an error of their j jdgmint, not of thoir hearts-Braver men never livtit; trua to their mrd never binded together. Let the veil of' charity be drapped over their errors. Remem'xr them only for their Spartan courage and fi lehty to their leader. What may bn my fate I know not, but whatever it may be, I trust that I mty meet it as brave man should unflinchingly. There is but one thing that makes me waver and that is the remembrance of the ties thnt bind ma. Tae thoughts of my wile and child, of my father and mother, brothers and sisters. Did not these ties exist, I could meet my doom, whatever it might be, without a a murmur. But, hl when I think ol you and my child,1 my poor hart is wrung with agony. I have no words to tell of my feel ingswhen I think of th terrible griel that this has brought on all who have loved me so fondly and so well. Thoughts like these orush down the spirit that would sternly niet. whatever doom might be in store for me. without a murmur or a word. It Is a fearful struggle of dispair and hope. Were I alone in the world, with none to whom this blow would be a thunder stroke of a? my, I could meet it calmly, and my oil, with no sin of intention upon itt robe, could gaze unmoved pon th scaffold or th tomb. Th wrong I have done has not been on, of Intention. In this work no man's blood rests upon my hands. I had no part In the death of those who were killed at th Ferry. My orders were to remov Ihe arms from Capt. Brown's boos to the school home, snd to guard them there. I ohayed orders to Ihe very letter. I was anxious to know what was th cause of th firing at th Ferry, and as quick as I could go without vt listing the orders I received, I hurried on to learn. I saw my brave companions surrounded saw them fired opon from every side. I contrived to draw the fir of a part of their opponents opon myself, and succeeded. I tried my best to discover soma means to save them, but I could not, I left them with heavy heart. It was th saddest day of my life. Tho who fell ther were mor than en mra das they were brothers. Whatever may b ray fate, I trust yoa will bear it with fortitude and submission. W all mutt eti's, and a brave man diet bat one. Should such bi my fate, then yx mH U for my child its guar! and guide.

There sre two distinct methods of printing now employed for china and earthenware; one is transferred on the bisque, and is tha inelhod by which the ordinary printed war is produced, and the oih.tr is transferred on the glaze. The first is filled "press printing." and the litter "bat printing." Th en-craving is executed upon copper plates, and for pross printing is cut very deep to enable jt to hold a sufficiency of color, to cive a firm nnd full transfer to the waie. The coppor plate is charged with color, mixed with thick boiling oil, by moans of a knile and dubber, while held on the hot stove plate, for the purpose of keeping the color fluid; nnd the engraved portion being filled the superfluous color is scraped off the surface of the copper by the knife, which is further dunned by being rubbed with a boss made oMeatW. A thick, firm oil is required to keep the different parts of tho design from lowing into a mass, or becoming confused while under tho pressure of the rubber, in the process of transferring. A sheet of paper.of the necessary size, and of a peculiarly thin tcxlu'e, after being saturated with a thin solution of B'inp and water, is placed upon the copper plate, snd being put under tbe action of the press the paper is carefully drawn off again, the engraving being placod on tbe stove, bringing with it the color by which Ihe plate was charged, constituting the pattern. This impression is given to the cutter, whi cits away the mi-peifluou' paper about it; ail if tho pattern consists nf a birder and a center, thi border is separated fr.iro thi cen'or, ss being more c nvenient to fit it to tho ware when divided.Lorsz sit Garhotkd correspondent writing from Marlon, AlaHami, to the Hemp, stesd Courier, tells th fallowing extraordinary story: Since the death of Pennr Francisco d O'Ga'cia, a Cuban Creole, worth some $4,00O.-OOO.some inlPreRting devolonm-nt have been made. The deceased was the intimate friend of Xarciso Lopez, and was implicated in thT Plinlo difficulty. The pipers hy the de- censed proved that that tho person sf-rnted in !85l,and believed bv all the world tob Natcis-so Lopes, was soinebdy else: that Lopi r. was not garroteil.hut.throtigh ihc influence ofSennr O Gircia, a substitute was procired; Lopes was executed by proxy. Whether the authorities or Ganeral Concha connived at this proceeding, we have no means of knowing; neither have we any authentic information of the fate of Lipez. There was a s'orv current, a few years ago. in the town of Limo-nal, district of Manlarr.as, rnd not far from Cordenas, that a strancr who irhabiled a ;h0,t then belonging to O Girc.ia. biro 'striking likeness to Lrpis. In HoR this ! atranzer. who hel l no intercoui-se with tha inhabitants of L'manal. though ha was occasionally visited by Strang -rs, sickened snd died. The tody was carried off by O'Gtr. cia's p.ople, and no one knew what b:came of it. Even the physician nf the deceased was a stranger in Liinon.il. People there be-tie?edthat this unknown man was no other than Lopes himself. (r Mr Wade, of Ohio, made the right sort of s speech in th Sonste yesterday full of solid sense frankly and forcibly uttered. On such speech, well dHfused through the South, will do more to calm agitation than doi n Union-saving ineeiings. Mr. Wade't contrast of the complacency wherewith the South and the Government received the Pro-Slavery invasion and devastation of Kansas, with tho excitement created by John Brown's raid. was most impressive. W trust hi speech will b widely read. JV. T. JViouns. "Oh. deart" exclaimed a fashionable fill, when she first beheld a cucumber; "I always thought such things grew in slices.'! Mas.
