LETTER FROM THE EDITOR.
NEW YORK CITY,
March 31, 1S55.
DF.AU JERRY:—We spent about twelve hours in .wandering around and through the city of Ulica, to sec the various objects of interest in that beautiful inland city.— For the number of inhabitants it is the most quiet place wo have ever seen. It is kept np almost alono by the manufacturing interests. One cotton factory alone employs some hundred hands. "When our western I men (we mean the great body of farmers,) become more fully acquainted with the manufacturing interests of the East they will then see the vast importance of protecting American interests they will have some better conception of the markets they afford, they will have a vivid idea of the disastrous results that would follow the destruction of our manufacturing establishments. The lime is rapidly coming when this policy will force itself upon the countrv our national existence and prosperity will rest upon it.
At Albany we embarked on one of the
magnificent steam-boats and came down the Hudson liver to the city. -"We had hcaid much of the grand and_,beautiful
sccnery which borders on this noble river. The many glowing descriptions we had
read, had excited our anticipations beyond a reasonable probability of realization. The scenery is delightful indeed, and cannot fail to charm the lovers of the beautiful
in nature, but in boldness and grandeur it
compares not with the eliiTs of the Kentucky river. No where upon the Hudson did we observe those massive piles of rock v.hkh give sublimity to the cliifs of the Kentucky. Nor is the scenery of the Hudson adorned with those mageslie Ccdavt which like the Cedar? of Lebanon, wave in perpetual beauty and verdure on the lofty
bluffs which tower above the waters of the Kentucky. Never before have we been more struck
with the importance of a fine coat or a slick hat to secure polite attention from those whoso business it is to care for travellers. We came of? with our old weather-beaten
cap which has protected our crown from the peltings of many pitiless storms, and it wore not the glossy appearance of tlio city hat. In tho eyes of many shallow-pated
creatures, it is the hat, the coat aye, the cut and the fit that make the man it matters not if the light of genius flash from his eye, they see it not it matters not if his countenance beam with the nfdiancc of superior
intelligence, they perceive it not it matters not if the thoughts of a pure, elevated, cultivated mind escape his lips, they regard them not, when the shining hat and fitting coat are wanting. A good dress or a bold and independent address is abso
lutely necessary for a man who travels al the present day a gentlemanly bearing, however should never be forgotten.
To this general rule there is occasionally an honorable exception men who regard and treat travelers with all due respect, who look on the traveling community not in the light of a fashionable mirror, but look upon each individual as possessing all tho el
ements of manhood whether clothed with costly drapery or in the worn garments of
business life.
Tiiis morning, ere the sun had dispelled tho darkness of the night, we made our way through the already thronging multitude of
Broadway, and stopped at the Clinton Hotel, on Bookman street, just opposite the oldest church in the city, where the great and good Dr. Manson, in days long gone
by, poured forth the sublime and heavenly strains of his lofty eloquence and lifted the
hearts of hearers up from the transient and unsatisfying things of earth and fixed them on enduring, confiding riches of the eternal
•world. "With our old storm-beaten cap drawn snugly over our caput mortuum, we called for a room, and fearing its influence on the proprietor, firmly but pleasantly observed, that we wished one a few paces below the clouds, intimating our indisposition to ascend much beyond the fourth or fifth story accordingly we were snugly quartered on the second floor and are now living as wTell
as mortals could desire.
The city government is now better than at any previous time. The present Mayor
has triumphed in his efforts to stop the liquor traffic on the Sabbath and break up the various gambling establishments whose keepers are but the out-side sentinels of the bottomless pit. All parties, save those whose business he checks, are loud in his praises, and richly does ho deserve them. The example he has set, has been rapidly contagious, and other Mayors of smaller cities are following in his pathway, and the glorious benefits are every where to be seen, every where to be felt. Heaven speed the day when such reforms shall be triumphant throughout tho whole length and breadth of our land. The liquor law now before the Legislature of New York, is the prevailing subject of all conversation, touching as it docs such vast interests, it cannot fail to awaken the most intense feelings.
Next Tuesday is the day on which its fate will determined. The friends of tem
perance anticipate a glorious triumph.
The prospects and principles of the American party—the working of the K. N's. are subjects of vigorous discussion. The secrecy of the latter is now the grand and all powerful argument urged against them. How long they will hang together as a party, it is not for me to say, but that their influence will be felt for incalculable good admits ot not the slightest doubt. Already have they poured a glorious light into the
minds »f man of the Roman Catholic fall of #»kS5.is.callcl skighinjf
Church, which will ultimately result in their emancipation from the spiritual bon
dage of Roman Hierarchy. In Massachusetts and Maryland, many thousand Catholics are now petitioning their respective Legislatures to change the law relative to their church property. The exclusive right to the church property, is vested in the Bishops, who are directly responsible to the Pope of Rome. They now desire the enactment of laws by which the j^ew-holdcrs of church can be vested with the title of property. This is right and their petitions should at once be granted. No foreign potentate should be allowed to control tho titles to American property. We should be independent of all nations, a glorious end which the Americans desire and will accomplish.
In our travels this way we found, immense banks of snow still remaining during tho present week it has been impossible for tho trains to pass over the New York and Buffalo Railroad, in consequence of
snow drifts. In some places the fcnow had drifted upon the road to the depth of ten
find fifteen feet. The wither lias been very cold, and although in this State sleighs
were still in use,—but to-day the sunshines out giving delightful indications of Spring. Yerily, will there be healing in his beams to many of the suffering in this great metropolis. Yery truly,

.Strong Letter from John SfeKcon, United suites District Attomej'. Mr. John Mclveon, United States District Attorney for this district, yesterday addressed the following communication to the United States Marshal, in rof&rcnce to the rendezvous recently established in this City for iae enlistment of soldiers to fight Igainst Rjjssia in the service of the Allies. We have already published a statement of the fact that such a rendezvous has been established near the City Hall. Mr. McKeon considers the act a clear infringement of the Neutrality Laws.—Times.
Sotnimtx DISTRICT
OF
RT Y., U. B. DISTRICT?
ATTORNEY'S O-FICE, iltirob 23, lc?f5. $ Sin From the Newspapers during the last few days and from other sources, I am inclined to believe that persons in this City arc engaged in recruiting men and shipping them to some place out of the jurisdiction of the Unite'! States with the intent there to be formed into regiments to serve in the present war of France, England and their allies, against Russia.
The United States are happily at peace with all the Nations of the world. The continuance of peace to our country depends upon the strict enforcement of the neutrality laws to their fullest extent. This duty we owe to ourselves and to all Nations with whom we are in amity. I beg, therefore, to call your attention to the second section of the Neutrality Act of 1818, which provides that "if any person shall within the territory or jurisdiction of tho United States enlist or enter himself, or hire or. retain another person to enlist or to enter himself, or to go beyond the limits or jurisdiction of the United States with intent to be enlisted or entered on the service of any foreign Prince, State, Colony, District or people as a soldier, a mariner or seaman on board of any letter of marque or privateer, any person so offending shall be deemed guilty of a high misdemeanor, and be fined not exceeding $1,000, and imprisoned not exceeding three years."
I wish you to use such measures as niay be at your command to prevent- any violation of the laws of the United States which are passed to preserve our neutrality.
I will cheerfully co-operate with you in such measures as yon may adopt to prevent the infraction of this important safeguard to our national peace aiuLprospetuy.
Yery respectfully, Your obedient servant, JOHN McKEON,
U. S. District Attorney.
Fatal Encounter.
The New Orleans Bulletin of the 21st
ult., has the following account of a most bloody and fatal" affair that took place at the St. Charles Hotel in that city
It appears that two years since, Duffy and one or two other men were connected with the killing of Captain Weymouth, in an alley near the Varieties Theatre, Gravier street. Duffy was accused of the murder of Weymouth, was arrested, tried, and acquitted. On his examination, a man by the name of Wm. C. Harrison was a principal witness against him, thenceforth it is said Duffy entertained the bitterest feelings toward Harrison, and on Monday it is said there was a light between them, in which they came to blows. Yesterday they mot on the banquette near tho hotel, and the uarrel was resumed. Harrison cursed uffy, and Duffy retorted, and drew his fistto strike Harrison, who thereupon drew a revolver, and tho other, retreating into the hotel, was fired upon by Harrison three times and Duffy, just as he entered the door, leading into tho billiard room, and firing over his shoulder at Harrison, hit Dr. Parsons, who was sitting quietly in a chair, entirely disconnected from the parties.—
Dr. Parsons jumped up, exclaiming, "I am shot!" and immediately fell and expired. The ball entered his right side, just below the nipple, and penetrated a vital point. The ball from Harrison's pistol took effect just below Duffy's stomach.— Ho fell, and in a few moments expired.— Dr. Parsons was 24 years of' age, a native of Texas, and had received his diploma from the medical college here. A few months since, he married a beautiful young lady of the Fourth District, the only daughter of Dr. James Jones, who is thus left a widow in the first blush of life. Dr. Parsons also leaves a brother in the city, and another brother, it is said, who was a member of the late Legislature from one of the country parishes, and perhaps other relatives. Duffy also leaves a wife. Harrison gave himself up, and was immediately committed to prison to await examination.— He was some time since a pilot on the river, b-.Tt lately he bears the character of a sportsman. a
The coroner's jury returned a verdict in accordance with the above statement.
Snow is such a rarity in Georgia,.
Interesting from Japan.
Another interesting letter from Silas E. Burrows, appears in the Alia, California, which we condense as follows:-—
While in California Mr. B's. commercial business enabled him to' obtain various specimens of sculpturing from the natives of Queen Charlotte's Island, in latitude 54 N. The natives take slate rock from their mountains and sculpture it with a beautiful polish. He was impressed with tho great resemblance of this work to that of Japan, and took with him to Japan various specimens. When in Jeddo Bay, with the Yice Governor of Uraga, and many of the chief men on board, he had these labors of the sons of Queen Charlotte's Island placed on the table without a remark being made.
The Japanese, with evidently great surprise, (as they had their police regulations so perfcct that nothing could come on board the ship without their knowledge,) said, "Where Mr. Burrows, did you get these Japanese articles?" Ho replied, "Are these Japanese?" "Certainly they are Japanese," said several of the party, and anxion«]y looked to ascertain in what manner they-had been brought on board.
Mr. B. replied, "it is with great pleasure, and this alone pays me for coming to Japan, that you recognize these articles to be tho workmanship of your family, but the workmen were not born in Japan, but in America." The position of Queen Charlotte's Island was then pointed out to them on the charts, and when they again examined tho sculpturing?!, and saw how 12rfeclly Japanese they were, all were sattied that tiie inhabitant? of ^ueen Cbardie's Island were their descendants.
Tho noble specimens of the North American Indians, Tecumseh, Logan, Uiicas, King Philip and Pocahontas, were pcrfect specimens of the Japauese, and v.'ere no doubt of the same blood and family.
The proof presented, Mr. B. things conclusive evidence that the red men of America came from the family of Asia.
Many of the habits and customs of the Japanese have survived the wreck of ages. The Japanese have a tradition that many years ago, their vessels had a communication with tho land of the rising sun, now called America and I hope your readers will fool the same interest in the subject as I do, as it lessens in some degree tho speculation so long existing as to man's own creation.
When Columbus first convoyed to Spain the natives of America, who appeared so different from the inhabitants of Europe, as to impress all that they were a distinct creation of man, could they have been accompanied by the Japanese of Asia, they would have ranked as the same family.
Tho Japanese made it a perfect jubilee during tho time we remained in Jeddo Bay, and had not tho Emperor interfered to arrest the intimacy the Japanese would soon have been Americanized.
Nover wero a people more desirous of the closest intimacy but the Emperor and prince prefer the old. state of things to the new, and time will be required for....the change.
The New York papers contain the following particulars of foreign news by the Asia:
JIAKU'ESTO OF TIL". CZAU TO THE AI'.MV.
Valiant warriors! Faithful defenders of Church, Throne, and Country! It has pleased Almighty God to visit us with the most painful and grivous loss. You. have all lost our common father and benefactor. In the midst of his unwearied care for Russia, Emperor Nicholas Paulovitch, my most blessed father, has departed to eternal life
His last words were: "I thank the glorious loyal guard, who, in 1852, saved Russia, and I also thank the bravo army and iieoi, and I pray God to.maintain the courage and spirits by which they have distinguished themselves under me. So long a.this spirit remains upheld, Russia's tranquility is secured within and without, and woe to her enemies! I loved my troops as my own children, and strove as much as I could to improve their condition. If 1 was not entirely successful in that respect., it was from no ward of will, but because I was unable to devise anything better, or to do more." Slay these ever-mcmorabie words remain preserved in your hearts as a proof of his sincere love for you, •which I share (o tho largest extent, and let them be a rded-e of your devotion for me and Russia. "(Signed) ALEXANDER."
A postcript presents to the Guards the uniform worn by the deceased Emperor, and directs them to retain on their accoutrements tho initial of Nicholas.
The manifesto concludes: "May the sacred memory of Nicholas survive our ranks as terror to the foe, the glory of Russia."
The manifesto is considered warlike.— Various reports are in circulation purporting to be the last word of the Emperor Nicholas. According to the English accounts, Nicholas, when addressing Alexander advised him to make peace even at tho loss of Russian influence in the Black SC£l—that he, Nicholas, would take the responsibility. lie had not believed in tne possibility of the Anglo-French alliance, and that Alexander's constant effort should bo to detach France from England, and unite Russia with Austria and Prussia.— iNicholas then added that perhaps his pride had been excessive, and that God had humbled him therefor. The above, however, is robablv manufactured for English mar-
et.
s:
Russian accounts say tiiat Nicholas passed the last hours of his life in the consolations of religion. Having bid adieu to all tho members Of his family, individually, he said to tho Empress, "Tell your brother Fritz, King of Prussia, to adhere to Russia, and never forget his father's policy." He then took leave of Counts Galoff, Dolgoronki, and Aiienburg, also of some of the favorite grenadiers. All except his family having retired, asked the Empress to repeat the Lord's prayer. At the words, "Thy will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven," Nicholas responded fervently "Always," "Always," "Always." Soon afterwards he added, "I hope God wid open for mo his arms." He then became partially insensible for two hours at noon he said something about a message to a dear friend not named, and something of Alexander and the garrison of Sebastopol. A few minutes afterward he drew a deep sigh, and expired. The body was exposed, face uncovered, in the Chapel Ardentc. until the. 16th of March, when it was buried with the usual Imperial solemnities.
American in France.
A Paris correspondent of the N. N. Commercial says: The French Academy-composed of the most distinguished men of France in letters and sciences, were occupied at a lato sitting in a discussion on M. Vattemare's project of international exchanges, and the ncss of the United States in partial M. Guizot was appointed orator of the day, and opening with a flattering eulogy upon the efforts of M. Vattemare and upon the great value of his schemes to both countries, and particularly the Academy, ho went on to give an enumeration of the immense number of public and society libraries in the United States, gave an apercu of their common school system which ho extolled as being in advance of all others and spoke of the passion with which Americans were pursuing the collection of historical records referring to the history of their country. On this subject, ho made the remark that Europeans deceived themselves when they made the charge that tho Americans were a people entirely absorbed in tho pursuit of a material progress for ho said that no nation who bought and read so many books, who paid so much attention to their normal schools, who had-la-borod so hard in the improvement of government and civil laws, who had entered with such a passion into the collection of historical records, should longer lie under this oft repeated and false imputation.— His remarks met the dccidcd approbation of the house.
great ilar.-
SI. Guizot was followed by M. Dupill former president of the Senate, by M. Cousin. Minister under the HcpnbliC, by M. Nobet, Michael' Chevalier and others, all in the same strain, each eulogizing the United States and exhibitions than can be found in any other body of men this side of the Atlantic. M. Cousin grew eloquent over the school system of the United States and the efforts of her lettered men, in establishing for a country a reputation winch so clearly contradicts the remark often neard that the American cares for nothing but tho almighty dollar.
It is said that the Emperor has not one friend among the members of tlis Academy.
Great Fire at Hashvilie—The Tennessee Penitentiary in Ruins. NASUVILLF., Thursday March 29.
About three o'clock this morning, a fire broke out in the cabinet work-shop of tho Penitentiary, and tho fire spread so rapidly that in a short time the entire portion of the buildings set apart for tho various workshops was entirely enveloped in flames.— Tho fire extended to tho left wing of the main building, which was so much damaged that it must be rebuilt. Tho cells were all thrown open and the prisoners conducted to an inclosuro within the walls and none of them escaped. One convict, named O'Connor, was smothered in his cell before ho could escape. The tools in all tho shops, together with the finished work, were all destroyed. The loss is estimated at §100,000.

Europe and Africa United by Telegraph. A recent Bulletin of the Geographical Society of Paris contains fresh information in respect to the telegraph line which is intended to Tinitc Europe to Africa, and probably to India. Tho cable is already laid own between Spezzia, in Northern Italy, and Cape Carso, .on tho Island of Corsica. After having traversed Corsica, tho Straits of Bonifacio, and tho Island of Sardinia, the line departing from Cape Spartivento, the southernmost point ot Sardinia, will proceed to tire Isle of Galita thence to tho Island of Taborca, which
partivento from tho Isle of Galita, offers some difficulties to the carrying of the telegraph cable in that part of the Mediterranean, but no doubt is entertained of complete success.
