Correspondence of Ike Baliinorc Patriot. WASHINGTON, Juna 4, 1850 It *n refreshing it-day to hedr the administration powerfully defehdcd and ftuttained, both in the Senate nnd House fe 111 good old fashioned whig style. Mesn*. Webster, Bell, Underwood of Ky., and Dawson of Ga., defended the President 10-day in a tone which left no doubt as to ihe meaning, as to a report of the seurrillous trash of the Washing* ion Union, which was foisted upon the jt floor of the Senate by those lesser lights of democracy, who seem to have been •rK detailed to do this work, Messrs. Bradbury and Douglas, in their speeches upon a resolution calling for information k. with reference to causes of removal. It jr J, was loo much for Mr. Dawson to hear the honor of a Soft hern man, and that •E* man an old war worn soildcr, whose whole life gives the lie to such insinuaWL *«ions, impugned by these violent and, wBL apparently, unscrupulous partizans of Wr- Maine and Illinois—to hear Gen. Taylor charged with falsehood and deception in the matter of equalising ihe ofli#:jficfcs between the two groat political parof the country. Senator Dawson ^spoke in atone of just indignation when *ba rose to reply to the cxtraoidinary *speech of Mr. ffouglax, end as he went ^on bore down upon that gentleman and

Kiln w* S «k*M A

liis coadjutors in this attempt to prose £tite this petty partisan warfare upon the

'er. floor of the Senate, in a manner' which seemed to startle the democratic side of the Chambea, as if they were just awaking from the reveries of a long and pleasant dream. It was ene of the most animated and thrfllicg speeches of the session, a display of forensic eloquence not often witnessed upon the floor of either House.

Mr. Webster warmly eulogised, the character of General Taylor, and promised the administration his cordial support, with the ordinary reservation of his j, right of private judgment as to its poliey.

Senator Bcll.pf Tennessee, was not teas happy when he poured his galling fire upon the "good old democratic doctrine, that to the victors belong the spoils." He denied that this administration had followed that disastrous and dangerous example.

It appeared in the course of the debate, thai four-fifths of all the offices in tho country were held by locofocos when this administration came into power.— Gen. Taylor, in pursuance of his patriotic policy, set about dividing them between the two great parties of the country, which he has not yet carried out, as majority still remaiu in the hands of tho democrats, or locofocos. How contemptible in view of these two facts, docs this cry of proscription nppear, coming from those too, who for twenty years, •have proscribed every whig in the coun-

try they could lay hand upon. In the House to-day, King, of New York, made a great speech in support of the administration on the California question. We had a niglu session, when Mr. Howe,(Free Soil,) of Fa., made a speech wo much regretted to learn, of a character irritating to the South, hwasmoro than answered by Mr. Vennblo, of N. C., democrat, who had just returned from iiis constituents, and who predicted all tfort* of evils if the North carricd out their extreme views. Gen. Taylor, of Oh4«,tonight also supported the plan of tVe administration, apd theCabinm generally, and bore dowti rather hard upon Mr. Clay. The Houso adjourned about half past nine. Tho debate closes, it will berocaltected, on Tuesday.

The order of tho administration to tfie military authorities of New Mexico, not to nuerfono with Toxna should she extend her jurisdiction to tho Rio Grande, gives very general satisfaction to Southern Wen on all sides.

It sounds strangelv, by tho way, to hear the "Clayton Compromise" (the bill offered by Mr. Clayton when in the tSeaain, to settle all disputes about new territory, &c., lauded by Southom whigs and democrats, in both Houses of Congress, while the Washington Union charges the same Mr.Clayton, Secretary of State,with being an Abolitionist. Such are the tactics of the "bitter enders."— The course of the Union is recoiling terrtbly upon its own head. PINKNBY.

Tho Bird nnd the Hnnke~ Interesting Incident. We take the following paragraph from the Mobile Tribune:

Two gentlemen of our acquaintance, ol unimpeachable veracity, witnessed a Fcene the other day worth recording.— Thoy observed at tho distance of soma thirty feet from them very strange and unaccountable condact on the part of a bird-—commonly called tho "cow bird," rssembling in color and shape the mocking bird of this region, though somewhat smaller. On watching it narrowly, thoy discovered that it was in conflict with a snake some eighteen inchos in length.— In a few moments the bird was victorious. It suddenly caught the snake by the head, and flying witn it an old pine tree, succeeded, alter a hard struggle, in fastening it on a pointed splinter.— Thus pinioned, the snake was entirely helpless. Tho bird watched it for a moment with apparently the utmost satisfaction, and then continued its repast, devouring within ten or fifteen minutes th?e« fourths of the length of tho snake.

Tunnelling the Alps.

The project of digging the railroad tunnel through the Alps, between Chamberry in France, and Susa, in Sardinia, has been talked of for several years.— The great undertaking is now in a way to be realized. A commission of the Piedmontese government has unanimously decided in favor of the project, and an application is about to be made to Parliament for the means to carry it into execution. The tunnel will be about seven miles in length, nineteen feet high and twenty-five feet in width—admitting a double track. The estimated cost is about three millions of dollars. Mount Genevre, which it thus proposed to pentrate [sic], rises to an elevation of about 40,000 [sic] feet. Chevalier Henry Maus, the author of this gigantic scheme, has spent five years of constant study upon the

subject.

At Vienna, in 1849. there were IS,* 241 births, of which 10,360 were illegitimate, and B,ft8t legitimate a fact unexampled in toy other town in the world.

From the Waskineio* RqnJbliq. I

POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT. The increased intercourse between the United States and Europe, consequent upon the increase of steamers plying to and fro, and upoti the facilities of mail transportation establised by international arrangements, is strikingly illustrated by the statistics of th$ New York city post office for the last tnohth.

The total number of foreign letters, including those from California, received at and sent from the post office in that city for the first twenty-nine days in May, was three hundred and fourteen thousand three hundred and fifty. Fortyone thousand five hundred were received from California, and twenty-five thou sand three hundred were sent thither.— The Largest European mail received was by the Europa, on the 23d. amounting to twenty-six thousand five hundred. The largest sent to Europe was by the Canada, on the 8th, amounting to 31 400 letters.

The largest California mail received was by the Georgia, on the 7th, amounting to 23,700 letters the largest California mail sent was by the Ohio, on the 28th, amounting to 1*5.400 Hj

These statistics, it will be observed, relate only to foreign letters, and to letters received by sea from California.— The increase of domestic correspondence, since the establishment of the present rales of postage, has been commensurate, we presume, if no more, with the enlargement of foreign intercourse by the mails. So great indeed has been the increase of the former, that tho reduction of ihe rates of postage from sheir former standard has resulted in an increase revenue to the Department and there are many advocates of a still further reduction, on the ground that it can be made without loss of income, while the public convenience and the business interests of the country would be promoted by it. Tho New York Journal of Commerce, from whose columns we have rccapituluted the foregoing ftaUs tics, adds: "The Post Office Department, under its present organization, is in a better condition than it has been for years, in point of efficiency and promptness in the .transmission of mail matter. Judge Collamer has proved to be a capable and efficient officer. Changes have been made in mail routes in every section of the country, where any time could be saved, wild every suggestion tending to insure despatch secures immediate anc favorable consideration."

Tlie "Indians do not comprohend the simplest rules of addition and division Tribes to whom largo sums aro paid by our Government have no clear perception of tho amount ihey receive, unless the pieces of coin are spread before them hcnce tho difficulty experienced so often with them in money transactions with the Government. Bundles of small sticks, tied up, aro the ordinary mode of counting. Their arithmetical root is decimal. Five fingers on each hand, held up, is a decimal five toes on each foot, appealed to, converts this into a v«ngtigosimal. But the pieces of money, or things of any kind, must bo shown to enable them to understand the sum. There is no rule of multiplication, division, &c. There is absolutely no mental appreciation of sums. The more advanced tribes are better arithmeticians. They have profited by education, and more by intermixture of'rnces. The Choeinws have native terms to ten hundred thousand.

NOTHING NKW UNDER TIIE SUN. If we did not inform our renders that wo cxtract the following from tho Pennsylvania Pnekctfor March 12.1789. they would doubtlos take it for the latest intelligence from the seal of the Mysterious Knocklncrs: "Kxtroct of a letter from a gentleman at

Fishkill, to his friend in this city, dated March 3, 1789: —Were I to relate the many oxtrnodinary (though no less true) accounts I have heard concerning that unfortun-

L0G-CATCHING IN MAINE. A correspondent of the Portland <Advertiser>, writing from Augusta, May 29 gives the following: "To one not versed in lumbering operations, the appearance of logs floating down the river at ordinary high water would appear to be a very careless and lame way of casting ones bread upon the waters—so careless as to create doubt how it should return even after many days. But at those times the log-catch-ers are busy, and the side-booms up and down the river receive them before drifting to sea. The logs are there sorted out for each owner, rafted and floated up or down the river on the current, and the flow and ebb of the tide, to the mills where they are to be manufactured.— But in such a freshet as we have had for a few days past, when at times the river was literally filled with logs, from one shore to the other, tossed about by the foaming waters, there was no stopping them, and large quantities have undoubtedly gone to sea."

I nave heard concerning mat timorum- I^ONTINUES the Practice of Medicine from tlie ate girl at New Ifackfack, your belief Office of Dr. A. Holmes, and respectfully somighl perhaps be Staggered, nnd paii- a share of public patronage. Tho following ence tired. 1 shall only inform vou what I've been an eye witness to. Last Sunday afternoon, my wife nnd myself went to Dr. Thorn's, and afier sitting somelime, we heard a knocking under the feci of a young woman that lives in ihe family 1 asked the doctor what occasioned the noise—he could not tell, but replied thai he, together with several others, had examined tho house, but were unable to discover tho cause. 1 then took candle, and went with the girinto tho cellar-—there tho knockings all so continued but as we wore ascending the stairs to return, 1 heard a prodigious rapping on each side, which alarmed me very much. I siood still some time, looking around with amazement, when 1 beheld some lumber which lay at the head of the stairs shake considerably Soon after w« visited the girl agate* the knocking still continued, but was much louder. Our curiosity induced us to pay ihe third visit, when tlie phenomena was still more alarming. I then saw the chairs move a large dining table was thrown against me, and a small stand on which stood a candle, was teased up and thrown in my wife's lap after which wo left the house much surprised at what we had seen."

Styles in Dress.

It is said that in 1607, a clergyman by the name of Wilkinson wrote a sermon on the following text: "Prov. xxxi, 14— "She )s like a merchant's ship, that briog eth her food from afar." It contains the following passage: "But, of ail qualities, a woman must not have one qualitie of a ship, that is, too much rising. Oh! what a wonder it is to see a ship under saile with her tacklings and Iter masts, and her tops ahd Her top gallants, with her tipper decks and her lower decks, and so bedecked with her streamers, flags and ensigns. and 1 know not what—yea, but a world of wonders, is to see a Woman, created in God's image, so miscreant oft-times and deformed with her French, her Spanish, and her foolish fashions, that He that made her, when He looks upon her, shall hardlie know her, with her plumes, her fannest and a silken vizard, with a ruffe like a saile, yea, a ruffe like a rainbow, with a feather in her cappe like a flag in her top. to tell, I think, which waye the jyind will blowe." s'i
