Now, liow-ever, she was in no mode for anything of the kind, and eo slio attempted to pass at without so much as glancing at the speaker, who in a whining voice was demanding alms. She did not answer but the woman was not to be put of in that manner, and followed her a shoit distance from time to time, repeating her request. Receiving no reply but in the negative, she rew insolent, and placing herself before sabel almost commanded her to listen to her. Her threatening looks, and the menacing gestures with which she extended her hand, were alone sufficient to inspire fear in a braver heart than that of the terrified girl before her; but the circumstance of Id tg in an unfrequented path, without help bear, filled the heart of Isabel with such i painful sense of danger, that involuntarily alio arnested her footsteps.

There is only one replied the gipsy, in a low tone.

Isabel atarted slio had never heard anything of the sort ifrom the lips of the trampors, and slio looked with new interest on ihe mysterious stranger wlioJutd assaulted her. That one sentence had set her visitor before 'her in a new light, and when again she began to jply her with questions, sho showed no unwillingness to listen.

The Atlantic hits now made the fuur quickest successive trips ever accomplished between this port and Liverj pool. The news by the Atlantic is of no special portance. The fishery question is discussed in most of the London papers, and has caused a slight depression in the funds. The general belief appears to bo that the maltor will bo settled amicubly.

Captain Fool state thnt he, with others, were dri ven out of the bay ofChalnur by the steamship Devattahou. Ihere were plenty of tat mackerel there, six and seven miles Irani the shore, mid had he been allowed t) fish he could have filled his vessel with three or four hundred barrels, whereas he only brought home one hundred. The Captain of the Devastation told Captain Pool that he should not allow them to fish in the Bay of Chaleur, or within three miles of any of the bays. Most of our vessels were obliged to go to the Devattatian. whenever the Captain wished to apeak to them, and if they did not come he would tire shot nt them.

The hrst tune the steam er came across the Mary Nil', she tired a gun, when Captain P. run up his flag. A second gun was fired, when Cap'. P. supposed he wanted him, and he accordingly heaved to, in order to do so.

This was no sooner done, however, than a shot came booming aero. 3 his bow. Capt lin P. then ran for the stenmer, when the Captain told him what we have si i ted above. The officers of the steamer were making every effort to catch the vessels, and resorted to many tricks in order to entrap them.

Burnham did not go into the Bay of Chaleur, or within any of the headland limits and therefore did not receive any notice from the cutters. By a letter received from Charlottetown, P.

E. 1., we learn that the crew of the sch. Florida wlubh had been carried into that place, state that lliey were going into one of the harbors on the north aide of the Islan.d for some wood and po tatoes, when the cutter came along and seized the vessel. They had been fishing this day outside the limits, and had dressed their fish before going in, but had neglected to put several barrels of them below deck. They had not been infringing on the treaty, and did not suppose they would be seized when the boat from the cutter boarded them.

Had they suspected the object of the cutter they would have escaped, as they could outsail her. The people at the Island are said to be much insenced at the outrage. Corre'aondence of the N. Y. Tribune.

Washington, Aug. 18th, 1852. A lint effort has been made by Ihe Union newspaper and the Loco-Focos in both Houses of Congress, and much precious time wasted, iu trumping up a charge of fraud against certain Democratic Whig members of Congress, whose names recently appeared at the bottom of a card, telling some dignified truths about Gen. Pierce. That it was intended only to burlesque flibustiei- ing Whigs, no honest or sane man would ques tion.

Ihe only question is, which is the best burlesque the card itself, or the manner in which grave and dignified (' in a horn') Democratic Senators trcnt it Coming from a party which recks with slanders against that soldier and patriot, Wiufield Scott which is foul with tha corruptions of Swnrtwout, Collins, Dcnby, Moore, McjNully, and their precious confederates robbers of the public treasury to the tune of millions it is really worth looking at And then how many hours is it since a Democratic Senator was indicted by the Grand Jury of this District for a cruel assault upon a public officer of the Government nnd a Loco Foco member of Congress fined 30 and costs for the same offence here in the wide world can you find the par allel for recklessness, fraud, brutality, falsehood and corruption of the Loco-Foco party I Did mortal mau ever speak a truer word than Mike Wulsh, when he said that driuking-houses were the nurseries of Democracy Never, never I 1 he windwich Island Annexation Uucstion, which the Loco-Foco leaders here fondly hoped would blow them a prosiierous gale, has been in geniously killed by Gov.

In every polilkul cooteat there can be found a class of men who care but little nbout politic ia any wuy, and aland ready to eel) themselves to the first lurvhaaer who may offer whnt they may deem on equivalent for their eervicea, to act in any capacity in whieh their purchaser! may dictate.

We often find leagued with thi clique public Journal) of large circulation, but of a ry doubtful reputation still they have uo little influence and the mongrel tribe are enabled, in some Statea, frequently to affect an election con they are anxiously annght for by the party in the minority and a hiyli price ia bid for them. Among the Statea thus affected at the present time ia Mnsaachiiaetta. A clusa of men styling themselves Webster men" have sprung up aa if by mngic in that Suite and to give a character to the movement, a lint of namei atated to number over four thousand has been made out moat of them we believe are ficticioua at leant, we are assured by Boaton men that such ia the case, aud thia ia publUhed to the world, and Lite peeu. liar organs take no little trouble to magnify the mole bill into a mountain. The i bject of thia movement ia perfectly plain to the initialed.

They have not forgotten the coalitionn which have taken place in that Slate whereby the party in the minority have been placed in power by the union, nor have they forgotten the price at which it was purchased receiving in part pay the control of no leas than two Governors, U. S. Senatoir, and representatives, iic, and money in any quantity. The prize ia too great to be lost, and with this prece dent before them, the leaders of the Webster movement are determined to act upon it, arid make hay while the sun thines. The Democratic party in Massachusetts stand ready to surrender almost any thing to these men of easy conscience.

and may possibly succeed in carrying their well devised scheme into effect but we cannot believe it, We do not believe but what the humbug of the matter will be found out when the whole affair will drop to the ground. It is remarked by all that few, if any, of the respectable poitiou of Mr. Webster's real friends are engaged in this movement but afewof them are even known at all in the community in which they move and have their being cave thoso known ns porter-house orators or disappointed politicians. Thus a few active men having real ly no principkiio act upon no reputation to gain or lose endeavor fur the love of gain to de feat the Yhif ticket in jMaasacliusetls. llieie is no sensible man for a moment surmises that Mr.

Webiter recognizes this movement and his silence by any me ins does not imply his consent he, as well at his intimate fiiuuds, deeming it wholly unnecessary to come out openly and deny any cornneetion. We should at soon expect to hear Generals Scott or Pierce refuting personally every fule assertion made in a New-York "grog shop' in reference to themselves. No, every man who knows anything of Daniel Webster, leels that his gigantic mind is too noble to to be classed with any offshoot from any parly or parlies who may attempt to bring disaffection into the party ranks he can always be depended upon as sup porting the regulor nomination of the Whig party, and those who may have the least shadow of hope that he will recognize any independant or parute movement may rest assured that their hopes are based Uon the fabrics of a vision. He is no such man I Daniel Webster cannot be ele vated one iota in the estimation of the world by being President of the United States. If he should ever fill that office, high and honorable as it is, he would rather be honoring the office than tha office him.

Durinir the South Carolina excitement, General Jackson elected Gen. Scott to proceed to Charles ton to tee to the public interests, and to attempt to reconcile connioting elements.

18, 1833. Sir The state of affairs in South Carolina has occasioned much solicitude to tlio President He indulges in the hope that the intelligence and patriotism of ber citizens will prevent any infrac tion upon the Constitution and laws of the Gen eral Government But, while be anxiously looks lor this result, he deems it possible, from the information he has, that, in the first effervescence of feeling, tome rash attempt may be made, by to take possession or the forts of the United States in the harbor of Charleston. The possibility of such a measure furnishes a suffi cient reason for guarding against it, and th President is therefore anxious that the situation and means of defense of these fortifications should be I.NStECTED BV AN OFFICER Of EXPERIENCE, WUO COULD ALSO ESTIMATB AND PROVIDE FOB ANT DAN- OKrs to wmcH thev mat be exposed. HE HAS FULL CONFIDENCE IN YOUU JUDGMENT AND DISCRETION, end it is his wish that you repair immediately to Charleston and examine everything connected with the fortifications. xou are at liberty to take such measures, either by strengthening these defenses, or by reinforcing their garrisons with troops drawn from other posts, as you may thick prudence and a just pre caution require.

lOUR DUTT WILL BE OF GREAT IMPORTANCE AND great delicacy. You will consult fullt and fbeelt with the Collector for the port of Charleston, aud with the District Attorney of South Car oiina, and you will take no steps except what ie-lates to the immediate defense and security of their posts, without their order and concurrence. The cxecutionjof the law will be enforeed through tne civil authority, and in the mode pointed out by the acts of Coujzres. Should, unfortunately. any crisis arise, when the ordinary power in the hands of the civil officers shall not be sufficient for this, the President shall determine the course to be taken and the measures TO BE adopted.

Till, therefore, you are otherwise in structed, you will act in obedience to the legal regulations of the proper cwu officer of the Unittd Stale, I will thank you to communicate freely and confidentially npon every topic upon which vou may deem it important for the Government to receive information. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, LEWIS CAS3. Maj. Gen. Scott, Commander Eastern Depart- ment, Washington.
