He made me sit down then in the dark, and went out and turned the key on me. I wet my fioger with the paragonc and . put it to the baby s lips to quiet its pains of hunger. Then I beard a whispering in the next (pom. Now my eyesight never was good, but to make np for it I beliere I had the sharpest ears that erer was, and I don't think anybody could hare heard that whispering but me. I saw a little glimmer of light through the chinks that showed, me where thdoor was, and so I ereeped np to it and put my ear to the kr-hole. Still Ihey whispered so low that no ears could o' heard them but my sharp ones. They was taikinfr about selling some woman and child. I should bare beea oueasrif they hadn't called the woman K.ate. Mtf willain oaered etn for fifty dollars, but t'other, willian wouldn't giro a cent. He told my willian. as be called Cap. tain, that he'd take 'em off his hands and no more. And then they threatened each other, and went oat o my htan'n.' And in the mornin the new wiMian came and took me and the child off in a shay and drove down along way to the beach, and hailed a vessel on the nrer ana took as aboard and sold as to the captaia right afore my eyes, and then went ashore, and we was car ried'off out to sea, though I cried, and 'splained, and spostalated all the time. "Now sir, come a strange prooideftce, arblcb the rery thoughts of it might convert a heathen! We bad been to sea about ire days when a dreadful storm ni. I tell you, marster, that looked like the wrath of Godt X hugged the baby to my breast and went to praying as hard ever i could pray. , "Presently I felt an awful shock, as if Heave and earth had come together, and then every body screaming, 'she s struck! She s strucld I felt the vessel trembling, like a lire creatur, and the water a pourio in everywhere. I hugged the babe and scrambled up the companion way to the deck. It was pitch dark, aod I beard erery man rushing toward one side of the weasel. . . "A flash of lightning, that made everything as bright as day again, showed me that they were all taking to the boat I rushed after, calling to them to save me and the baby. ; But no one seemed to hear me; the? were all too busy trying to save themselves and keep others out of the boat, and cursing- and swearing' and hollering that there .was no more room that the boat would he swamped, and so on. The end was, that all who could crowd into the boat did so. And me and the baby and a poor sailor lad and the black cook were left behind to perish. ' "But, marster, as it turned oat. we as was left to die, were the only ones saved. We watched after that boat with longing eyes, though, we could ouly see it when the lightning flashed. And every time we saw it it was farther rflF. At last, marster, a flsh of lightning showed us the boat as far off as erer we could see ber. capaised and beaten hither and thither by the wild wares its crew had perished.' "Marster, as soon as the sea had swallowed np that wicked captain and crew, the wind died away, the jr are sii, and tbo storas lulled jtMt as if it had done what it was sent to do and was satisfied. The wreck where e poor forlorn ones stood the wreck that had shivered and trembled with every wave that struck it until we bad feared it would break np erary minnte, became still and firm on its sandbar, as a house on dry land. '" "Daylight came at last. And a little after sunrise we saw a sail beaoinz down opon lis. We could not signal the sail, but by the mercy of tr rovidenee slie saw us and lay to, and sent off a boat, and picked us up and took os on board me and the babv, and the cook and the sailor lad.,-,. ; " It was a foreign vessel, and we could not understand a word they said, nor they as. All we could do was by signs. But they were rery ?ood to us, dried our clothes and gave ns breakfast, and made as lie down and rest. And then put about and continued their courwe. The sailor lad Herbert Oreyson soon found out and told me they were bound for New York. And, in fact, marster, in about ten dajs we made that port. i. " Well, master, I aint a gwine to bother yon with telling yon of how I toiled and struggled a-long in that great city first living out as a servant, and afterwards renting a room and takiBg in washing and ironing aye! how I toiled and struggled for ten long year, hoping for the time to come when I should be able to return to this neighborhood, where I was known, and expose the evil deeds of them willains, and for this cause I lived on toiling and struggling and laying np money penny by penny. "No one ever helped me but the lad Herbert Oreyson. Whenerer he came from sea, he sought me out, aod made a little present to me or Cap. "Cap, marster, was Capitol a, the child. The reason I gave her that name was because on that j ring I had draws from the masked mother's band were the two names Eagene Capttola. - "Well, marster, the last time Herbert Grerson came borne, he gave . me fire dollars, and that, with what I had eared, was enough to pay my passage to Norfolk. "I left ray little Cap in the care of the people of the house she was big enough to pay for her keep in work and I took passage (or Norfolk. When I got there I fell ill. spent all my money, and was at last taken to the poor-house.

Closing Proceedings--and JVays. -Tile Yeas Washisotox, Feb. 12. Hocsc The House resumed the consideration of the admission of Oregon. Mr. VaHandigham, of Ohio, said when Kansas would come here as Oregon had come, peaceably and orderly and with the consent of her people, he would rote for her immediate admission, but Kansas was not here aod Oregon was. There is no possible connection between the two and he would not vote to establish enyt both would be free States. He foand Oregon here, and he would take the first that came and vets, for her admission. He was oppesed to Mr. Grow's amendment, and to all others which only delayed or embarrassed the bill; but he thanked Mr. Grow and his Republican friends for opposing the admission of Oregon they stood uc veiled now, and had squared up, and wiped out the Lecompton account of last session, Mr. Lane, of Oregon, stated tie circumstances attending the formation of Oregon, and earnestly nrged its admission. He said he had no doubt that its white population was over ninety-three thousand. ' . Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, said the. admission of Oregon was only a question oftimef he was glad that his coIlaagueMr. VaHandigham, had found something to be thankful for. So far as be was concerned bis colleague was welcome to all he could make out of It. In Ohio it was last year decided by the almost united- voice of the Democratic party that Kansas should not be admitted with a constitution of her own making, without baring her - right of representation in Congress ascertained by a census. - This was recognized and spread on the records of the coun try as a part of the Democratic principles, and there was no escape from it. . If Kansas had been admitted under the Crittenden-Montgomery amendment, it is very well known that she would bare scat two Republican Seaators. - All be asked was that whoa a State came here professing to be free, with two Democratic Senators elected to serve during the next Presidential term, that there should be meted out to ber the same rale that was applied to Kansas, and not adopt one rule for the admission of a Democratic State. This is the true secret of the question. He indicated his objections to the Oregon constitution, and said that Toe would, not bj rotiog for ber ad-mission nndsr it, sir. ttUlitv-lo tb Dred Scott decision. --'; :'' -: : ' Mr, Stephens of Ga4 was ; glad that he tad an opprtnnity of showing the utter groundlessness of the charge mads against the Democratic parry, that last winter the party applied one rule of admission in one case and a different One in an other. He held then that the people of Oregon could n3tly lay claim to admission.

Th.5 Lata 7Uliaa IL FrescoU. ,: Our paper of last week announced theseddea death of William Hickling ' Preacott, tha. historian, at Boston, on Friday the 23th alt. . Mr. Prescott had become one of tha chief lo-minaries of the World's Republic of letters. The great diScalties he encountered and overcome, the eminence he acquired ia the branch of learning to which he devoted his life, as well as the luster his labors have abed upon, the cause of literature ia tha United Suteshave rendered his same, to tha American public, an object of national pride aad affection. A great wit, the founder of British periodical literature, Id 1829 put to American scholars the stunning inquiry "Io the four quarters of the globe, io reads an American hoolf Prescott was then tweoty-foar years of age and had just entered upon bis historical studies bow that his labors hare closed, a triumphant answer can be given. Mr. Prescott was bora in Salem'Massachn setts, in 1?9S. His father was a lawyer of dis tinction in that commonwealth, and bis grandfather, Col. William Prescott, was at Lawisburgb ia 1745, commanded at Bunkef Hill, and served under Gates ot Saratoga He graduated at Harvard Unirersitj in I814. .He was then laboring under the severe a3iction which followed him through life, but which fortunately directed bim to the field of his subsequent usefulness and distinction. Before leaving Cambridge an accident had deprived him of his cyes the remaining one soon gave way andef the additional labor, im posed upon It, and became blind. Assuredly such a catastrophe; at such a Juncture ia the life of a young man in afluent circumstances, might be expected to eventuate in a future of leisure and obscurity. He spent the two sncceediag years" in European travel, visiting England,' France, Germany and Italy, mainly for the pur. pose of availing himself of the highest surgical skill, in an effort to recover his sight. ' He re turned without success. Forced, to abandon his original predilection for the bar, he gave himself witkzeal and assiduity to the study of classical literature as a preparation for the labors and career of a historian. Aided by" a reader and amanuensis, be pursued these studies without interruption for ten years, be then entered trpdfl the task of writing the "History of Ferdinand and Isabella," on which be was engaged tea years longer, and which was . published rimulta-neonsly in London and Boston in 1853. This work was at once received in both countries nth ereiy mark of approval and applause. Gather ing material in his researches already made, ha was enabled to publish his "Conquest of Mexi- co" in 1843, and the "Conquest of Peru' in 184?. He has since given to the world a volume of mis cellanies, and edition of Robertson's Charles with valuable observations and notes, and was engaged at the time of his death on the "History of Phillip II,W three volumes of which have been published. -' - Probably no coatributions to recorded history hare been more warmly receired or had a wider circulation than those of Prescott. They hare gone through repeated editions in the French, German, Spanish and Italian languages. Mr. Prescott re-visited England in 1850, and was then honored by learned men and corpora tions, with tokens cf respect. The ancient Uni versity oT Oxford conferred opon him the degree of Doctor of Civil Laws. He had alread been elected a member of the French Institute, and of various learned academies. . It was to be hoped that this distinguished man, whose career is closed in his 63d year, could hare been spared to finish -the labors he bad be gan, and to enjoy his fame in a sereee and quiet evening of life; but the earnestness and vigor with which he bad applied himself so long was sumcientto breaaoown - a constitution more ro bust than his. ' " ? " A Monster Snffget of Gold- The Burrendong correspondent of the Sidney Morning Heraldogives the following particulars of the discortry of a monster nugget: "A steady working party, consisting of Messrs. Johnson (2), Trarers and T. Grecian, owning a claim on the same line, about 150 yards from Hopping TomV noted rich spot, had the good fortune, at a-depth of 35 (eet to eome on a mass of gold quartz, of iron pyrites and mundic, which yielded, upon being pounded with a ham mer, the enormous amount of 120 lb, weight of gold. This is, I beliere, the largest quantity that has ever been found in one spot on the western diggings. Language would fail X6 portray the intense ex citement of this industrious party upon their sudden accession of wealth. It occupied them several hours to eeperate the - gold and partially clean it; they had a two-quart billy' full of coarse gold, for which they were subsequently offered $5,000. by a gold buyer, but refused to take it, preferring to forward it to the mint, accompanied by themselves, next escort. - , A ITaaV Xralns Unocked Oat, ttsi Tct lie SUil Lives!

The Republic of Tlaxcala was then a populous nation, as . we may judge from the circumstance that on one occasion, 150,009 warriors engaged the little army of Cortex. These people have sustained their peculiar ideas to the present time, notwithstanding they have been trodden down and persecuted by their Spanish task masters for raore than three centuries. They have every year been swindling away since the introduction of that foreign scourge, the small-pox, but have always urged their nationality, aod made it convenient for the various governments of Mexico to give them a separate territorial government; and their ancient republic now Suds a place on tha maps, as the "Territory of Tlaxcala. It is in this territory, (which joins this State and that of Puebla,) that one of the constitutionalist leaders, a half fodian, and Governor of the State of Puebla nuder the con stitution, has taken up bis quarters and appealed to the reverence of the Indiana for their ancient power and pride.

A Coxapluaeat ta the Demoeratlo'Party. Mr, Washburn, of Maine, one of the leading and most noted Republicans in the House of Representatire, in his la'e violent and sectional speech, passed the following compliment to the Democratic party. He said "Let as, Mr. Chairman, learn wisdom fromonr opponents. Look at the Democratic party and note its policy. It has held possession of the Government, with a short interruption, for more than a quarter of a centurj; not because it has been always right, but because it has been always earnest' and has dared to trust itself. It has never paid court to its opponents, or stooped to speculate upoa their weakness and divisions; always bold and oncom promising, it has nerer doubted its own saSciency and invincibility, and so it has erer been a mighty power io the laud. a Mr. Washburne, with all his bitterness against it, had to confess that oo other political organisation stood by it principles so bra rely and unflinchingly as the Democratie party, aad in this Mr. Waahbnrne told bat the truth.

He made me sit down then in the dark, and went out and turned the key on me. I wet my fioger with the paragonc and . put it to the baby s lips to quiet its pains of hunger. Then I beard a whispering in the next (pom. Now my eyesight never was good, but to make np for it I beliere I had the sharpest ears that erer was, and I don't think anybody could hare heard that whispering but me. I saw a little glimmer of light through the chinks that showed, me where thdoor was, and so I ereeped np to it and put my ear to the kr-hole. Still Ihey whispered so low that no ears could o' heard them but my sharp ones. They was taikinfr about selling some woman and child. I should bare beea oueasrif they hadn't called the woman K.ate. Mtf willain oaered etn for fifty dollars, but t'other, willian wouldn't giro a cent. He told my willian. as be called Cap. tain, that he'd take 'em off his hands and no more. And then they threatened each other, and went oat o my htan'n.' And in the mornin the new wiMian came and took me and the child off in a shay and drove down along way to the beach, and hailed a vessel on the nrer ana took as aboard and sold as to the captaia right afore my eyes, and then went ashore, and we was car ried'off out to sea, though I cried, and 'splained, and spostalated all the time. "Now sir, come a strange prooideftce, arblcb the rery thoughts of it might convert a heathen! We bad been to sea about ire days when a dreadful storm ni. I tell you, marster, that looked like the wrath of Godt X hugged the baby to my breast and went to praying as hard ever i could pray. , "Presently I felt an awful shock, as if Heave and earth had come together, and then every body screaming, 'she s struck! She s strucld I felt the vessel trembling, like a lire creatur, and the water a pourio in everywhere. I hugged the babe and scrambled up the companion way to the deck. It was pitch dark, aod I beard erery man rushing toward one side of the weasel. . . "A flash of lightning, that made everything as bright as day again, showed me that they were all taking to the boat I rushed after, calling to them to save me and the baby. ; But no one seemed to hear me; the? were all too busy trying to save themselves and keep others out of the boat, and cursing- and swearing' and hollering that there .was no more room that the boat would he swamped, and so on. The end was, that all who could crowd into the boat did so. And me and the baby and a poor sailor lad and the black cook were left behind to perish. ' "But, marster, as it turned oat. we as was left to die, were the only ones saved. We watched after that boat with longing eyes, though, we could ouly see it when the lightning flashed. And every time we saw it it was farther rflF. At last, marster, a flsh of lightning showed us the boat as far off as erer we could see ber. capaised and beaten hither and thither by the wild wares its crew had perished.' "Marster, as soon as the sea had swallowed np that wicked captain and crew, the wind died away, the jr are sii, and tbo storas lulled jtMt as if it had done what it was sent to do and was satisfied. The wreck where e poor forlorn ones stood the wreck that had shivered and trembled with every wave that struck it until we bad feared it would break np erary minnte, became still and firm on its sandbar, as a house on dry land. '" "Daylight came at last. And a little after sunrise we saw a sail beaoinz down opon lis. We could not signal the sail, but by the mercy of tr rovidenee slie saw us and lay to, and sent off a boat, and picked us up and took os on board me and the babv, and the cook and the sailor lad.,-,. ; " It was a foreign vessel, and we could not understand a word they said, nor they as. All we could do was by signs. But they were rery ?ood to us, dried our clothes and gave ns breakfast, and made as lie down and rest. And then put about and continued their courwe.

Closing Proceedings--and JVays. -Tile Yeas Washisotox, Feb. 12. Hocsc The House resumed the consideration of the admission of Oregon. Mr. VaHandigham, of Ohio, said when Kansas would come here as Oregon had come, peaceably and orderly and with the consent of her people, he would rote for her immediate admission, but Kansas was not here aod Oregon was. There is no possible connection between the two and he would not vote to establish enyt both would be free States. He foand Oregon here, and he would take the first that came and vets, for her admission. He was oppesed to Mr. Grow's amendment, and to all others which only delayed or embarrassed the bill; but he thanked Mr. Grow and his Republican friends for opposing the admission of Oregon they stood uc veiled now, and had squared up, and wiped out the Lecompton account of last session, Mr. Lane, of Oregon, stated tie circumstances attending the formation of Oregon, and earnestly nrged its admission. He said he had no doubt that its white population was over ninety-three thousand. ' . Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, said the. admission of Oregon was only a question oftimef he was glad that his coIlaagueMr. VaHandigham, had found something to be thankful for. So far as be was concerned bis colleague was welcome to all he could make out of It. In Ohio it was last year decided by the almost united- voice of the Democratic party that Kansas should not be admitted with a constitution of her own making, without baring her - right of representation in Congress ascertained by a census. - This was recognized and spread on the records of the coun try as a part of the Democratic principles, and there was no escape from it. . If Kansas had been admitted under the Crittenden-Montgomery amendment, it is very well known that she would bare scat two Republican Seaators. - All be asked was that whoa a State came here professing to be free, with two Democratic Senators elected to serve during the next Presidential term, that there should be meted out to ber the same rale that was applied to Kansas, and not adopt one rule for the admission of a Democratic State. This is the true secret of the question. He indicated his objections to the Oregon constitution, and said that Toe would, not bj rotiog for ber ad-mission nndsr it, sir. ttUlitv-lo tb Dred Scott decision. --'; :'' -: : ' Mr, Stephens of Ga4 was ; glad that he tad an opprtnnity of showing the utter groundlessness of the charge mads against the Democratic parry, that last winter the party applied one rule of admission in one case and a different One in an other.

Th.5 Lata 7Uliaa IL FrescoU. ,: Our paper of last week announced theseddea death of William Hickling ' Preacott, tha. historian, at Boston, on Friday the 23th alt. . Mr. Prescott had become one of tha chief lo-minaries of the World's Republic of letters. The great diScalties he encountered and overcome, the eminence he acquired ia the branch of learning to which he devoted his life, as well as the luster his labors have abed upon, the cause of literature ia tha United Suteshave rendered his same, to tha American public, an object of national pride aad affection. A great wit, the founder of British periodical literature, Id 1829 put to American scholars the stunning inquiry "Io the four quarters of the globe, io reads an American hoolf Prescott was then tweoty-foar years of age and had just entered upon bis historical studies bow that his labors hare closed, a triumphant answer can be given. Mr. Prescott was bora in Salem'Massachn setts, in 1?9S. His father was a lawyer of dis tinction in that commonwealth, and bis grandfather, Col. William Prescott, was at Lawisburgb ia 1745, commanded at Bunkef Hill, and served under Gates ot Saratoga He graduated at Harvard Unirersitj in I814. .He was then laboring under the severe a3iction which followed him through life, but which fortunately directed bim to the field of his subsequent usefulness and distinction. Before leaving Cambridge an accident had deprived him of his cyes the remaining one soon gave way andef the additional labor, im posed upon It, and became blind. Assuredly such a catastrophe; at such a Juncture ia the life of a young man in afluent circumstances, might be expected to eventuate in a future of leisure and obscurity. He spent the two sncceediag years" in European travel, visiting England,' France, Germany and Italy, mainly for the pur. pose of availing himself of the highest surgical skill, in an effort to recover his sight. ' He re turned without success. Forced, to abandon his original predilection for the bar, he gave himself witkzeal and assiduity to the study of classical literature as a preparation for the labors and career of a historian. Aided by" a reader and amanuensis, be pursued these studies without interruption for ten years, be then entered trpdfl the task of writing the "History of Ferdinand and Isabella," on which be was engaged tea years longer, and which was . published rimulta-neonsly in London and Boston in 1853. This work was at once received in both countries nth ereiy mark of approval and applause. Gather ing material in his researches already made, ha was enabled to publish his "Conquest of Mexi- co" in 1843, and the "Conquest of Peru' in 184?. He has since given to the world a volume of mis cellanies, and edition of Robertson's Charles with valuable observations and notes, and was engaged at the time of his death on the "History of Phillip II,W three volumes of which have been published. -' - Probably no coatributions to recorded history hare been more warmly receired or had a wider circulation than those of Prescott. They hare gone through repeated editions in the French, German, Spanish and Italian languages. Mr. Prescott re-visited England in 1850, and was then honored by learned men and corpora tions, with tokens cf respect. The ancient Uni versity oT Oxford conferred opon him the degree of Doctor of Civil Laws. He had alread been elected a member of the French Institute, and of various learned academies. . It was to be hoped that this distinguished man, whose career is closed in his 63d year, could hare been spared to finish -the labors he bad be gan, and to enjoy his fame in a sereee and quiet evening of life; but the earnestness and vigor with which he bad applied himself so long was sumcientto breaaoown - a constitution more ro bust than his. ' " ? " A Monster Snffget of Gold- The Burrendong correspondent of the Sidney Morning Heraldogives the following particulars of the discortry of a monster nugget: "A steady working party, consisting of Messrs. Johnson (2), Trarers and T. Grecian, owning a claim on the same line, about 150 yards from Hopping TomV noted rich spot, had the good fortune, at a-depth of 35 (eet to eome on a mass of gold quartz, of iron pyrites and mundic, which yielded, upon being pounded with a ham mer, the enormous amount of 120 lb, weight of gold. This is, I beliere, the largest quantity that has ever been found in one spot on the western diggings. Language would fail X6 portray the intense ex citement of this industrious party upon their sudden accession of wealth. It occupied them several hours to eeperate the - gold and partially clean it; they had a two-quart billy' full of coarse gold, for which they were subsequently offered $5,000. by a gold buyer, but refused to take it, preferring to forward it to the mint, accompanied by themselves, next escort. - , A ITaaV Xralns Unocked Oat, ttsi Tct lie SUil Lives!

A Coxapluaeat ta the Demoeratlo'Party. Mr, Washburn, of Maine, one of the leading and most noted Republicans in the House of Representatire, in his la'e violent and sectional speech, passed the following compliment to the Democratic party. He said "Let as, Mr. Chairman, learn wisdom fromonr opponents. Look at the Democratic party and note its policy. It has held possession of the Government, with a short interruption, for more than a quarter of a centurj; not because it has been always right, but because it has been always earnest' and has dared to trust itself.
