After performing several evolutions, the troops were ad dressed by the General in a ver appropriate and felicitous speech. We omitted stating. a few weeks since, that Maj. Gen.

Had our ciliiens succeeded in making their contemplated Hail Road from this place to Hamil ton, we should have an unin vrrupted steam communication v.ith Petersburg, which now is, as it always has been, the best and most convenient market in this section of country.

GrThe Petersburg Constella tion of last Tuesday, appears in an enlarged and improved form.

A crowd of 3 or '100 persons are assembled in front of the Anti-Slavery ollice. The mayor has just addressed them assuring them that he knows that Thompson is not in the city, and will not be present at the Anti-Slavery meeting. The crowd has not, however, dis persed. It seems, by verbal accounts, that not finding Thompson, thry seized Garrison, ami when the passengers of the Providence boat left at 4 1.

From those we give it will be seen the situation of Spain becomes every day more critical; that the whole country is in a state of disorganization. The British auxiliaries do not appear to have been further engaged, but the Cariists keep them hemmed into Barcelona, and have shot some whom they had made pris oners. From France there is nothing deserving particular police. In England some excitement has arisen from the circumstance of Leopold, King of Belgium, and his consort having arrived in that country. It does not appear however that this journey basin truth any political object. A mo mentary pressure had shewn it self in the London money markets, but it does not appear to have been of any permanent character, or one in any respects alarming.

Had we learned from a less respectable source, thai the highest Mountain in ihe United States was to be found in North Carolina, we could not have believed the fact! But it is even so! The loftiest Peak of the Black Mountain, in Vancy county , is more than 200 feet a bove Mount Washington, in New Hampshire, hitherto accounted the highest Mountain in the Union. The fact itself is not so astonish ing, as that the discovery of it should not have been sooner made. Ral. Reg. Corn. According to the Mil ton Spectator, Corn sells in Or ange county at 1 per bbl.

The members of this Convention, to the number of about 400, as sembled in the 2d Presbyterian Church at Ulica, but were not al lowed to organize. A large num ber of ihe citizens went in a body and stated that they were deter mined the meeting should not pro ceed, and, advised an adjourn ment. The Convention accord ingly adjourned to Whitesboro', a few miles from Ulica.

An ar rival at Salem, brings more mel ancholy news from Para. Ano ther bloody and exterminating massacre has occurred there. The first attack on the city was made on the 1-llh of August by a miscellaneous multitude of the most savage and ferocious people of color, mulalloes and Indians, amounting to about 4000 men, armed with muskets, axes, knives, bows and arrow s', kc. The force assembled to resist this formida ble array, was unfortunately very inadequate for the defence of the city. The conflict continued with varying success on either the part of the besieged or that of the invaders, until lite former, weak ened and disheartened by seveie losses, amounting to about half their original number, including many excellent officers and brave soldiers, were compelled to retreat on board the ships of the squadron before the city. The sanguinary contest terminated, after nine day s hard fighting, by the total defeat of the Brazilian forces, and flight of the Governor, who lost his &on anil aid-de-camp, killed in the early part of the action, as he was engaged courageously animating his men to repulse the savage horde that bcleagured this unfor tunate and ill fated city. The Governor made his escape on board the Campista, lying in the harbor; and on the 23d, the w hole city was abaudoned by the remaining royalists, and such of the white population as survived the horrible and fiend-like attack. The city was then most thorough ly sacked the whites were still pursued and killed wherever found -the streets were encumbered wiih the murdered bodies, and the most horrid assassination con tinued in all quarters.
