' PottA' ' London Clubs. Respecting th. famous London Clubs, a letter in the Boston Post, from the British metropolis, says: "Arriving: in -"Pall-Mall,, (pro nounced pal-mal) every house-is a palace, and every third man you knock against is either an immaculate peer, an incorruptible member of Parliament, a gaily, attired-swell-mob man, or some othet equally mag nificent item of the idle fraternity. The stately man sions in this street do not belong to . tne nobility ; even their enormous revenues could hardly sustain them. They are owned by the fashionable "clubs, such, for instance, as the Athenaeum, the army and navy, the reform, the clerical, the Oxford and Cam-J bridge, the conservative," the European, the forensic, &C, &c. Admission can only be obtained by ballot an entrance fee of from 250 to 509 and a year ly payment of from 60 to 150. In this way funds rapidly accumulate ; insomuuh that in many instan ces, even after 'an" extravagant outlay on building and decoration each club emulating the other in these particulars a handsome bonus becomes paya ble to the senior members. Many of those who joined the reform in its callow days, are now exemp ted from the yearly subscriptions ; and the salary paid to M.

Taylor, the racy correspondent of the Chicago Journal, thus hits off the salt water bathing at Coney Island. These grand concert bathing places, are like Death. Beauty and ugliness are nothing. Every body is in marvalou3 disguise. It is amusing to watch the met amorphoses, as one after another they occur. An elegantly dressed lady, beautiful and young, goes tripping along towards No. nine, while a be-whisker-ed, be-chained, bc-patent, leathered gentleman does "sesame" to No. twelve. Now numbers nine and twelve, as the uniatcd must be advised, arc two apart ments in what may properly be called Rookery Row, a series of watch box affairs, used as boudours and toilet rooms, by all pilgrims "of high and low degree," to Coney Island. AVell, they turn the key, and in they go. By and by No. nine opens, and out steps a squaw and a sorry looking specimen at that, with a tattered broad-brimmed hat, pretty much 44run up to seed," a striped frock and leggins, and bare footed, and away she trots over the burning sand to the wa ter; and in she goes', not with a whoop, or, as one might infer, but with a delicate little shriek pretty much all there's left of the lady who entered No. nine. The step has degenerated into a trot, the el egant bonnet into a "shocking bad hat;" lace, rib bons and skirts, and all the fortifications to take hearts, into a straight rag, and hang about the form like a becalmed flag round its staff. Her heir, that waved like the sea, is as tangled and dripping as the sea-weed. She runs out a little way, and squats plump down into the water, she tumbles this way and that, she goes under the water on her head, and does queer things she never dreamed of ; in comes the wave, and away she rolls over and oven Her white feet twinkle through the water like shells of pearl. Up she scrambles ; her dress has frilen in love with her; she pulls this way and that, but it sticks, "closer than a brother;" she looks about half timidly, but etery body's so, and what matters it! Down she goes again, and down they all go. No. twelve comes open with a bang, and out comes "a fellow in the coursest kind of blue shirt, and pepper-and-salt pantaloons, torn off about three inches above the knees. There he stands, 'under no obliga tion to hatter or boot-maker; surveys the scene a moment, and makes a Bee that's the orthograph, and not B a Bee Line for the water. In he goes with a bound and a plunge, and becomes amphibi ous in a twinkling. Where's your gentleman You will find all there's left of him, in a little heap in a corner of No. Twelve, inventoried thus : one pair pa tent leathers, 6 00; one pair pants, $10 00; one Marseilles vest, $3 00; and "so on" to the hat. They were what half the world know him by ; what more than half the world knew him for. A funny world thi s is, to be sure ! Ecrope is less man Focr Dats. Tho London Morning Advertiser announces, that by a new and much improved construction of vessels, it will bo perfectly practicable ta-jRc'complish the voyage be tween the United States and tho United Kingdom in considerably less than four days ; in fact, in about three days and a half; the ports connecting the Old and New Worlds being Halifax and Galway. This, it adds, is no speculative statement, but is founded on experiments which have already been made to tost the sailing capabilities of vessels constructed on the new principle. At the same time, one of our New York contem poraries says that a company ha5 been organized, and the stock subscribed, for constructing a subma rine telegraph between Liverpool and New York via Galway, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia, and for ex tending subterranean branches of it to every part of hurope. It is said that the process to be used is one newly invented by a gentleman of Massachusetts, who has discovered a mode of immensely increasing the conductiBfi: capacity of telesrranhic wire, and also a way of laying down the wire, both under sea and land, much cheaper than any used hitherto. Tho whole length of the route from Galway to New York, as thus marked out, is about 2,800 miles.1 The cost per mile for the submarine wire, on . the improved plan, is estimated at less than $600 the cost by the methods now in use, on tho cheapest scale, would be fully $800. For the subterranean portions of the route, - tho , estimated cost is about $200 per mile, which is less than one-third of the cost of such lines now in use. T- We hope that both these projects may succeed, but are willing to wait a little while for tho result '. , v . : ANew York Evening Post. ,' RcinI RcinII Secretary Corwin excitod an in credulous smile on the countenance of some of our political Cassandras when he reported the estimated revenue proper for the fiscal year ending June 30tb, 1853, at $51,000,000. He was mistaken the year passed, the accounts' were footed, and the total amount was $61,000,000, outstnping his estimate $10,000,000. The Secretary of the Treasury re- ports.a surplus on hand, on the 29th of August, of over f ,uuu,oou, which is constantly augmenting. As a key, of some sort," to the commerce of our country, wcmay remark that the revenue above men tioned comprises $59,000,000 of duties, showing an amount of dutiable imports estimated at nearly $33u,uuu,uuu, an advance or faojogOjWonon the pre1 ceding year.

Dem. A suit has been brought by Archbishop Hughes against tne proprietors of the Episcopal Recorder.

Immortality. If we wholly perish with the body, what an iranosturc is this whole system of laws, manners and usages on which human society is foun ded I If we wholly perish with tho body, these maxims of charity, patience, justice, honor, grati tude and friendship, which .sages have taught and good men have practiced, what are they but empty words, possessing no real, binding efficacy ? W hy should we heed them, if in this life only we have hone ? Sneak not of dutv. AVhat can we owe to the dead, to the living, to ourselves, if all arc, or will be, nothing? Who shall dictate our duty, if not our own pleasures, if not our own passions? bpcaK not of morality. It is a mcro chimera, a bugbear of hu man invention, if retribution terminate with the eYc- If we must wholly perish, what tousaretnesweev ties or kindred? what the tender names or parent, child, sister, brother, husband, wife or friend? The characters of a drama are not more illusive. We have no ancestors, no descendants since succession can not be predicted of nothingness. W ould we honor the lllustrous dead? How absurd to nonor m which has no existence? Would we take thought for posterity? How frivolous to concern ourselves for those whose end, like our own, must soon be an nihilated? Have we made a promise? How can it bind nothing to nothing? Perjury is but a jest The last injunctions of the dying what sanctity have they, more than the last sound of a chord that is snapped or an instrument that is broken ? To sum up all : ll we must wnouy pensn, men is obedience to the laws but an insensate servitude ; rulers and magistrates are but the phantoms which popular imbecility has raised up ; justice is but an unwarrantable infringement upon the liberty of men -an imposition, a usurpation ; tne law 01 marriage is a vain scruple ; modesty a prejudice ; honor apd probity, such stuff as dreams are made of ; and in cests, murderers, parricides, the most heartless cru ellies, ana uie uiactvesi crime., ui w uuuireirgiuuiure sports of man's irresponsible nature; while the harsh epithets Attached to them are merely such as the pol icy of legislators has invented and imposed on the credulity of the people. Here is the issue to winch tho vaunted pnuosopny of unbelievers must inevitably lead ! Here is that social felicity, that sway of reason, that emancipa tion of error, of which they eternally prate, as me fruit of their doctrines 1 Accept their maxims, and the whole world falls back into the most frightful chaos ; and all the relations of life are confounded ; and all ideas of vice and virtue are reversed ; and the most inviolable laws of society vanish ; and all moral discipline perishes ; and the government of States and nations has no longer any cement to up hold it; and all the harmony of the body politic bc cpmes discord; and the human race is no more than an assemblage of reckless barbarians, shameless, remorseless, brutal, denaturalized, with no other check than passion, no other bond than irreligion, no other God than self! Such would be the world which impiety would make. Such would be this world, were a belief in God and immortality to die out of the human heart. Mamllon. . An Axciext Paper Mill. The old paper mill, says the West Chester Register, in which the paper was manufactured used by Benjamin Franklin in the printing office, is still in operation on Chester Creek, Delaware county, and owned by Mr. Wilcox,' the son of the gentleman who held it during the htetimc ot Franklin. The paper was at that timo and is still manufactured by hand. Scarcely any change has been mado in the mill, and the same process of ma king rags into paper is in operation to-day as was followed some hundred and fifty years ago; the mill having been erected in the year 1713. Ivy Mills, alluded to above, has long been exclusively devoted to the manufacture of bank note and map paper, of course by hand. The paper for tho notes of the old United States Bank, of which much was said at the time, was made at this establishment The paper was made of the best Russian linen, and Bandana handkerchiefs were shrcded and mixed with the pulp to produce a red streak, then for the first time adop ted in bank note paper." .- Tobacco Planters' Convention.

He ac cordingly presented such a statement, which" was re ferred to the committee on the Consecration of Bish ops. ' . . . . On Saturday, Herman Cape was re-elected Treasu rer of the Convention. . . " A communication was received from (he House of Bishops, informing the House that they had passed the canon entitled " The abandonment of the com munion of this church by any bishop, priest, or dea con," etc., and also the resolution admitting Iowa, A resolution, providing for sending a bishop to California, was, after a warm and protracted debate, adopted ; and the convention adjourned until Mon day. . . . - The Board held a meeting on Friday evening, when the venerable Bishop Meade introduced the Right Rev. Bishop Spencer, Archdeacon Sinclair, and the other English dclegates,cach of whom made hand some addresses. " EpiscorAL General Convention Setenth Day. Judge Chambers, of Md., presented a memorial from the Rev. Mr. Prescott, a presbyter, of Massachusetts, complaining that he had been suspended by his Bish op, on the ground that he had entertained opinions contrary to his ordination vows. After considera ble discussion it was voted not to receive the memo rial. The House then took up the canon entitled "A canon on the Abandonment of the Communion of the Church by any Bishop, Priest, or Deacon," which declares that if any Bishop, Presbyter, or Deacon shall abandon the communion of the Church, cither by renunciation of doctrines, discipline, Jbc, or by a formal admission into any religious body not in communion with the same, such Bishop, Presbyter or Deacon shall be held, iso facto, as deposed to all intents and purposes; three months' notice, provided the abandonment is not evidenced in writing, signed by the party. Hon. Murray Hoffman,- on Tuesday, made a long speech in opposition to the proposed canon, and read resolutions which he said he should offer, in case the canon was rejected, declaring that a majority of the House of Bishops, or a Council of Bishops assembled for the purpose, had authority to pronounce and ad judge that a Bishop of this Church has, by reason of any neglect or refusal, vacated and forfeited his ju risdiction in any diocese, as well as his right to ex ercise any of the offices and functions of a Bishop of this Church within the United States. Tho Rev. Dr. Mason, of North Carolina, on Wed nesday, replied to Mr. Hoffman as to the course of the diocese of North Carolina in relation to the defec tion of its former Bishop, and to the election of an other. . J North Carolina, he said, does not consider Bishop ' Ive's letter to tho diocese an act of resignation, but an act of abandonment and apostacy a higher act a going out from the office, as much as if he had died a case in which there can be no doubt all the facts of the defection, of the abandonment, have been perfectly proved, and North Carolina was justified most fully in the course she has taken. The rever end speaker made an earnest and feeling appeal to the convention to confirm that action, and thus bring peace to the diocese. Tho Rev. Mr. Craik, of Kentucky, said that he must vote against the resolutions of Mr. Hoffman, whatever he might do on the resolution reported By the committee on canons. If the election of Dr. At kinson as Bishop of North Carolina be not good and valid, it can never be made so by the act of the third party. Mr. iraiK did not believe with the commit tee that a Bishop does, byapostatisimr. ipso facto de pose himself. Judjre illiams. of Va.. defended the position ta ken in the canon before the House that the abandon ment of a Bishop of his diocese ipso facto vacates that diocese ; and he contended that the convention had a right to pass such a canon. It is familiar law that the acceptance of an office inconsistent with the one previously, held vacates the other, ipso facto. Abdication has always been held as vacation. James II, of England, wished to resign the throne, but he was told " No, you have abdica ted!" Napoleon wished to resign the crown of France in favor of his son : but he was told "No you have abdicated I" This the late Bishop of North Carolina had done. He had gone to Rome, and kissed the Pope's toe, and was even now glorifying in his apostacy ; and yet it is gravely told that this man is still a Protestant Epis copal Bishop. The speaker then proceeded to ana lyze and to argue against the resolutions of Mr. Hoff man, intended as a substitution for the proposed canon. Mr. Evans, of Maryland, agreed with the gentleman who had just preceded him in relation C& excess of legislation, and therefore he preferred the resolutions ot the gentleman from .New York. He then pro ceeded to discuss the points of the question, and the result of his views was that the Diocese of North Carolina had no right to declare their Diocese va cant The discussion was continued un to the hour of adjournment At a regular communication of Fulton Lodge, No. 99, held at the Masonic Hall in the Town of Salisbu ry, on Friday Evening Oct 7th A. D. 1853, A. L." 5853, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously.adoptcu. When the hand of God is felt in the removal from earth of loved ones, and friends, thereby producing a void in our hearts that must forever remain unfilled, it becomes us as rational and immortal beings to pause in the midst of our worldly vocations and contemplate with serious earnestness the solemn truth, that we are all fast hastening to the cold and silent grave, where our mortal frames must mingle with their mother dust And though it is very painful to hear of the death of friends, even when they are surround ed by their kindred and brothers of the mystic tie, it is still more painful to learn that a brother has been smitten down by the destroyer in the midst of stran gers, sfar from those to whom ho is bound by the ties of Masonry. In tho death of Brother Eli P. Miller, who died in Ashcboro' on the 3d inst, we feel that the Fraternity has lost one of its brightest ornaments, this lodge one of its most exemplary members, that society has sus tained an irreparable loss, and a void has been caused in the hearts and homes of his kindred that will be productive of tears and sorrows. Therefore be it Resolved, ' ' That Fulton Lodge No. 99, lias heard with pro found regret of the death of Brother Eli P. Miller. and that our regret is heightened from the fact that he died afar from his relatives and Masonic friends. Resolved, That wo deeply svmDathise with tho re latives of Brother Miller, in this great crushing' be reavement, by which they have been so suddenly de prived of an affectionate brother and son cut down while the most brilliant prospects of happiness wero conspiring to make life desirable and thoughts of death t repulsive.

A' . ' ' As.it is now generally conceded mat the Central Railroad will, at some period not very remote at far-, thest, be extended to Beaufort harbor. " the question :as to 'what point on the harbor shall be selected as the terminus is becoming one of absorbing' interest to a large number of citizens of the East, although to those of the West who are not acquainted ; with the different localities on the harbor,: and have not purchased land here, it has not yet assumed an as pect of much importance " The citizens of the town of Beaufort, more than any others," begin to look at this question as one. in which their interests are es sentially ipvolvcd. And it has been with concern, therefore, that they have seen in many who. have turned their attention to this harbor, indications "of a; willingness to disregard the interests of Beaufort en tirely, or trample them in the dust, to gratify a spec ulation. To this end public attention has been di verted from this side of the harbor where Beaufort is located, remote points of the harbor have been seized upon, land companies formed and captivating advertisements spread before the public, offering city lots for sale ; and the more . effectually to allure the capitalist, hotels, wharyes, saw-mills and distilleries, are paraded before him, which in all probability will never have any more real existence at the points in dicated, than the fairy scenes of the Arabian talcs. At an early period in this Railroad excitement a disposition to forestall the deliberate decisions of the public judgment in relation to the terminus of the road was manifested. Even before the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad bill made its appearance in the House of Commons last winter, a private com pany with the distinguished President of the North Carolina Ran Road Company at their head, clutched, and appropriated to themselves, five or six hundred acres of land atShepard's Point, on this harbor, with the intention doubtless to have the terminus of the Railroad fixed at that point, if possible, by Legisla tive act Tliis sudden movement started the-citizens of Beaufort, who had thought, ever since the days when Fulton first sounded these waters, that there were other points in the harbor worthy of some con sideration, that Beaufort and Gallant Point on the East as WCU as Shepard's Point and White Hall on the West, ,had advantages which should not be en tirely overlooked when this great work should be be located. The citizens of Beaufort have ever supposed that the site for the terminus of this Road would, at the proper time be determined by a survey, and they have'ever been willing to abide by the result of that survey, if independently and impartially made, but they protest in advance against the influence of mo nopolies in controlling it If the Engineer designa ted for the work shall be beyond the reach of this influence, the Editor of the Spectator may bo assur ed he will not be "annoyed" by any other. Wc shall advert to this subject again in a future number. CARLTON. Beaufort, Oct 12, 1853. ' For lb Standard. Rocet Mocxt, Oct. 8, 1853. W.e believe that no event has occurred in our time better calculaten to elevate North Carolina in the es timation of her neighbors than the establishment of her State Agricultural Society, and the purpose of holding an annual State Fair at her capital. It is an earnest that her best minds will cooperate in try ing to give order and dignity to our industrial pur suits, and to present a fair field on which they may win both honor and profit Many sections of North Carolina know less of each other than they do of other States, and still less of their own markets and productions. We have re cently heard of one instance among many of the kind.' Fidgccombc has lately imported many cotten gins from Georgia, and beautiful machines they are too, when we learn that a SouthenKcounty in our own State (Anson, we believe) has a gin factory whose machines are equal to any in the Union. Thus our own institutions are not cherished, simply be cause wc do not know of their existence, and often because we value foreign wares too highly. Now if a State Fair can but half-way remedy this one etil. Dy unnging rsonn iaronnians togctner and making known our wants and resources, it will accomplish an immense good and entitle it3 originators to the name of public benefactors. Among these, our county-man, Dr. John F. Tompkins, has been and is a prominent actor, and it is no disparagement to others to say that the part he has borne in these movements merits the thinks and applause of every North Ca rolinian. About two years ago ho entered on a task which no one else seemed m illing to venture on that of publishing an Agricultural journal and gal vanizing new life into tho agriculture of the whole State. This, at the time, seemed a visionary project, but with an enthusiasm worthy of the cause he went forth. on his errand lecturing on the application of science to agriculture and the laws which should regulate its practice. He thus infused a new spirit among the farmers, and improvements naturally fol lewed his steps. " Many County Societies are the re sults of his zeal and energy. The State Society was the next, and then the project for a State Fair. These conceptions were quickly followed by action, show ing that he is a working man, and if he has visions, he intends to have them realized. When we reflect that our citizens have spent thou sands of dollars at other State Fairs, it is to be hop ed that State pride will induce them to patronize lib erally their own. For agricultural papers too, we spend annually hundreds of dollars abroad, while the only one we have has but a fcccble support .among us. Must this one die out as its predecessors have done, while we are craming our mites into the full coffers of Editors abroad? In these enterprizes Dr. Tompkins merits success if he cannot win it, for we arc convinced that nothing short of the rare en ergy and enthusiasm such as his could have waked up the generous impulses of our citizens to have accomplished so much in so short a time. With their aid he has put our State many years ahead. Such enthusiasm is just what we need. Our good old State requires just such spirits to keep her in action and to give her the quick-step of progress. ' MACON. The Cotton Worm. Extract of a letter from a gentleman, now in Louisiana, to his father in Balti more : , - . Graxd Coteac, Sept 20. . . On Sunday afternoon I rode out from Grand Co teau, about six miles to the Praric, to the residence of Mr. Ben. Simmcs, (whence I am now writing,) and on my arrival I noticed a very peculiar and dis agreeable odor about the plantation. Mr. S. told me it was occasioned by the cattcrpillars, of which he had noticed a few in his field that day. - The next morning (yesterday) at daybreak we witnessed a 6ccne of 'destruction and swift desolation that cannot be conceived of except by an eye witness.. There are hundreds of acres, yesterday so smiling and prom ising with the luxuriant cotton plant covered with its green foliage, bright blossoms and bursting bolls of staple, to-day are reduced to fields of bare black ening cotton stalks, and not a single solitary leaf to be found on the whole plantation.,- All this-was the' '"""vi vuc uigut a Hurfcvi iuo innj worm. -. AnO destruction of the crop is almost total, for but vrtv i;t. tie has been gathered ; and the few remaining bolls ueiug now quite uoproiectca irom the sun, must perish before they, can mature. -This cotton bein raised on new ground is supposed to be more tender than that grown on bid plantations, and of course a preferable food for the worms ; a few days however wUl decide whether the older places 'will escape or notf ':I used"to think me . cotton wprnx stories were pure inventions, or at least ereatlv trtrt t.t. ten up to effect the inarlceut I now know mat ;YJDesoivIfeeI astthouS bttVa bosoin., -.-T.. .
