' aauMted hj the coauaen feeling of admiration and
respect which n entertained for him by all classes of
his fellow citizens appointed a committee in every
couaty the members of which assembled at Utica
darin the recent session of the Supreme Court of
Hew York and Toted an address to be presented to
him on the anniversary of his eightieth year; and also
i pasted a resolution inviting him to partake of a pub-
-Ik dinner at Saratoga or Albany at such time as he
might please to designate. This invitation and ad-
T drugs were presented on his birthday hy Messrs. John
Duer B. F. Butler and A. Crist the sub-committee
but an answer had not yet been received. So should
1 worth and ability ever be honored.
Cultivation or Cotton in India. The Ma
veoa (Ga ) Messenger has received a letter from one
oT the American planters in India by which we are
informed that the results ol the experiment in the cut-
'tare of cotton still continue very unfavorable so
"much ao that all but one of the Government planta-
r lien which were located in Bengal have been broken
p and removed. The new location is believed to
:te some 250 miles in a northeastern direction from
the former one: that of the writer is at Gorruckpore
'or Goofoikpoore) northeast of the Ganges and
near the borders of the Chinese empire. Nat. Int.
Emigrants to the' United States. It ap
pears by documents submitted by the Secretary of
btate to the late congress that the number ol passen-
gers who arrived in the United States from foreign
;-ports daring the year 1842 amounted to 1 10984 of
which 74014 arrived in New York.
Valuation of Property in New York.
"The Journal of Commerce gives a tabic of the asses-
sed value of property in tho city and State of New
York for thirteen years from 1828 to 1842 inclu-
sive. In 1823 the assessment for city and State
was Real property $275 861471; personal $63-
785292; total $344646763. In 1842- -Real pro-
perty $504251029; personal $116595233; total
$620676346. In the city alone the assessment for
1823 was real property 837603580; personal
$37684838: total $125238518. In 1842 real
property $176512342; personal $61294559; total
- $23780G901. The highest assessment was for 1836
when the property of the Slate including the city was
valued at $672372487; and that of the city alone at
-309500920.
Steamer Erie. The wreck of the Erie the
-steamboat that was burnt on the Lakes a year and a
half ago with such fearful loss of life has been dis-
covered by Major McClure. u The discovery was
maue oy means oi a compass says the Uansor "in-
vented by Captain Chapin of N. York constructed
-co that the needle will indicate when a large body of
iron or omer metallic suostance is in the vicinity and
-its direction from the compass. Capt. C. with Major
McClure of this place have been engaged for several
rks wjien the weather would permit in finding
wreck with the aid of their compass. They went
out upon the ice following the indications of the nee-
die till they found by attractions of the massive ma-
ebinecy that they were in the vicinity of the boat
when they commenced cutting holes through the ice
-and sounding. After having sounded several times
upon a sandy bottom the lead finally struck the ma-
chinery the bolts and bars of which had left impres--siona
on the lead which satisfied them of its being
the wreck. They marked the place by anchoring
' buoys under the ice. The place indicated by the com
pass corresponds with that observed by those who
-aaw the conflagration." Cincinnati Gas.
Extraordinary Confession. During the ex-
ercises in the Miller tent at Rochester N. Y. a wo

British Trade The exports from England to
the United Slates for 1842 it is said were more than
fifty per cent less than the average -of the preceedin"
nine years; being only 3.528807 while the average
is given at $7880000 a falling off of twentymil-

Duelling in England. The fatal result of
the recent duel between Col. Fawcett and Lieuten-
ant Monro has made a great sensation in London
and once more stimulated the public journals to the
discussion of plans for the absolute suppression of the
inhuman practice. The circumstances of the case
were peculiar and invested it with a particular and
melancholy interest. The gentlemen were nearly
related by marriage having married sisters! and there
is this sad consequence attending their crimo that
the wife of the survivor can never clasp the hand of
her husband without remembering that it is the hand
that made her sister a widow! and that widow can
never reflect upon her sister's wedded happiness
without remembering how and by whom her own
has been destroyed. The origin and nature of the
quarrel too were miserably inadequate to its unhap-
py termination.
During the absence of Col. Fawcett in India
whence he had recently returned after a distinguished
and honorable service. Lieut. Monro had managed
some property in which the sisters were jointly in
terested tie had employed a real estate broker to
sell a house at Brighton and paid him fifty pounds
commission ior nis services; out tne sale was not con-
summated owing to some defect in the title and the
fifty pounds were lost. On Col. Fawcetl'a return
a meeting was arranged between him and Lieut.
Monro at the house of the former to examine and
adjust the accounts; and CoL Fawcett seemed to be
much annoyed about the fifty pounds lamenting the
loss with undue acrimony and even going so far in
the height of his vexation as to insinuate that to
charge him with half of the sum was a trick a
piece of dishonesty.
Lieut Monro is represented as behaving with
great forbearance taking no notice of bis brother-
in law's intemperate language and apologizing for
his agency in the misfortune. At the tea-table Col
Fawcett's vexation again broke out Lieut. Monro
wearied and provoked at the colonel's pertinacity an-
swered with some asperity and Col. Fawcett start-
ing up in a rage called a servant and ordered him to
kick the lieutenant out of doors. This was a great
and unpardonable indignity; but Lieut. Monro pre-
served his'temper so well as merely to say that he
would not compel Col. Fawcett to use a measure so
violent after which he left the room and the house.
Feeling himself grossly insulted he sougm ad-
vice from the colonel of his regiment a gentleman
of discretion as well as honor who recommended
that he should write to Colonel Fawcett inviting an
apology but without any design or intimation of a
hostile meeting. Iheadvice was doubtless well
meant but its effect was unfortunate. The note was
wrilttcn and sent; and Col. Fawcett after reading it
inquired of the bearer a Mr. Grant what was to be
the alternative of a refusal to apologize. Mr. Grant
said he was not prepared to answer that question
"Well then" said the colonel "I am. The alterna-
tive is a challenge. I accept it; and so you may in-
form Lieut. Monro." The rest is known. If. Y.

this staple as tho supply of the Old Crop actually in
the market does not exceed 500 bales while that of
the New maybe set down at about 1500 bales which
are generally held at higher rates than the few buy-
ers who are at all inclined to operate at the moment
are disposed to accede to. The business is almost too
trifling to constitute a market but as the sales of Old
Cotton exhibit a positive advance on qualities below
Middling Fair we bave altered our figures to prevail-
ing rates. We would remark that our quotations are
for Old Cotton exclusively the markes for New not
being opened sufficiently to enable us to fix upon an
accurate scale.

Ireland. The agitation of the Irish Repeal
question is gradually subsiding. The pacific con-
duct of O'Connel has allayed nearly all appre-
hension that a resort will be made to arms. A
few repealers attacked the police officers at ono of the
small towns and O'Connel immediately declared
that they were no longer regarded as associates in the
great cause of repeal and the town was declared to
be struck out f of the map of tho repealers of Ire-
land. The British patliamcnt was probably prorogued
in the last week of August and the old ministry will
remain in power until it meets again.
O'Gonnell's pay or Rent is thus explained by the
Newark Advertiser: When he was first elected to
Parliament in Clare his practice at the bar is said
lo have been worth ten thousand pounds sterling (fif-
ty thousand dollars) a year. As a M. P. he gets no
pay and in order to enable him to support his fami-
ly then numbering ten thousand from twenty-two
down to eight years of age and devote himsf to the
public service his countrymen instituted a fund to
which every Irishman would have the opportunity of
contributing his portion. One day was set apart fo-
the collection cf the fund which a member of the
Dublin Repeal Association writes has frequently
reached seventy thousand dollars annually. It has
been' as low as fifty thousand dollars only twice.
Pretty good pay for public service certainly.
Dr Posey. The famous sermon of Doctor
Pusey which has given occasion to such scandal in
the church has been republished. All the Eastern
editors agree that they can make little out oi it; it is
written in a style so slovenly. The New York
American says of it that "so involved is its style so
purely of the schools its distinctions and so little con-
nected or practical do its conclusions appear to us
that weshould feel no alarm for the orthodoxy of the
Church though a copy of this sermon ere in every
one's hands."
There has been an extraordinary demand for co-
pics of Dr. Pussey's sermon. Upwards of 3000
copies have been sent to Ireland. Two editions of
6000 each have been printed; and a third edition it is
expected is just about to issue.
It is said that out of 12.000 clerjrymrn of ths Esta
blished Church fully 9000 or three-fourths of the
whole number are more or less tainted with Pu
scyism.
Foreign Items It is said that in England and
Wales the value of household furniture is 130000.
000; of wearing apparel 16000000; and of plate
jewels &c 31000000. .
There" are in London and its environ 107962 fe-
males servants and in Holborn alone 29000 of whom
from 14000 to 15000 are constantly out of place.
A few days ago Robert Stokes baker at Wansford
sold one of his children an interesting girl two years
of age for three guineas 1 There's a nut for aboli-
tionists to crack.
The amount realized by the sale of the effects of
the late Duke of Sussex at the end ot last weeK was
upwards of 40000.
