I We Lave been called noon bv the Peters burg Intelligencer to nan ate the history ot an occurrence, which took place in the House of Delegates of Virginia some years ago, when we were the member from the city of Peier birg. As the facts are distinctly in our memory, and as they show tbe double dealings and boJIow professions of Democra cy, we comply with the In' elligencerB re quest. ; i i At the scssiouof 1819-'50 i was de'er mined by 'he Democracy, then the dominant party, to remove some of the (basment sto ry tfficers," as tbey were called, from office. These officer were purely ministerial, and up 0 th it ime their politics ba4 been wholly disreearded by th Legislature, no matter which party was in the ascendancy. To car ry out their purpose, he Democracy held a caucus and nominated for the 'ffico of First Audi'or then filled, as it bad been for years, by James E Hea h, an :ecnmplisbed officer as "ell as g ntletuan John W. Thompson, of heeling. The two Houses agreed upon the day for going into tbe flection, and just as the vote vote which would have elect ed Thompson was about to be taken in the H use, (he writer of th:s having obtained the I iuforni ttion, stated from bis place that, some years before, Thompson bad made a Fourth of Jul v speech, in which he had denounced slavery, od spokeo of insurgent slaves as he-oes en;i led to the sympathiea of tbe world. This annuncia ion caused a great derl ,f; excitemeur. and confusion, and the dominant party at length hroke up he joiqt order for te elec'ion, by carrying a morion to arj mm without having the civiliy to ask the Sena'e for is concurrence in a postpone ment, or annulling of said j dnt order. Af ter th s, Thompson was ignored by the Democ racy of be Legislature, but the Democracy of. he Pan Handle di.'triot took hiui up the ensuing spring and sew him to Cong ess, and sub-equentl, whn Judges were made eligi ble b tb! people, he was elected a Judge of the Circuit Superior Court. Tbes-i are the facts, and show the value of Dpmocra ic chimpionsLip of the institution of flvry. It is to Thompson's region that Ltther looks for the tote to elect him .Gov ernor of Virginia.

This charge has not been denied by the Standard, and we construe its silence into a cotifesfrion of its truth. The Standard, then, we repeat, is divided from its party South. JTes, and divided from its party in this State, for it has done what the Democ racy of tho late Legislature would not do. In a UemoTaiic caucus, a resolution en- doreing Mr Buchanan's Administration was introduced, but it appearing that a majority of the caucus were opposed to it, it was not put: to a vote.: Among others, Mr. Speaker Settle was opposed to it.

The funds in both the English and French markets hud fluctuated considerably, but co-ed sbout the same as by previous advices. Lord Cop ley had left Vienna for; London. The su'-ces- of his mission was extremely douptfu'. A dispatch in the London- Timesj states; that he was th" bearer f a counter proposition from Aus tria', which it was hoped would prove acceptable. An article published in the Paris jOnstitutionnl states that the number xt Austrian troops in Italy have been increased from 50,000 to 180 000, and ti.a. a 'arge q'-anti' v of artillery is being hurrid forward, evtdntly lor the preparation of fo nn- dabl siege trin. Matters look very warlike in Sardinia, and it is believed that she will commence a war with Austria single-handed. The intelli gence from other European States is also interest ing. Later advices from China state that there is a prospect cf a renewal of hostilities. From the N. Y. Evening Post of Saturday. WRECK OF A BKITISH. MAN-OF WAR- GREAT DESTRUCTION OF LIFE TER RIBLE SUFFERING. Mr. Samuel Dunbar, passenger from-Havana on the steamship Karnak, which arrived at this port at one o'clock this mir.Mng, has given our re porter the details of a terrible shipwreck off the const of Jamaica. It appears that the intelligence of tne dtsa-ter had not been made publ'c heforfc tbe closing of the mails for New : 1 ork, but that the news arrived from a port on the south of the island, a"horttime betore the sailing ot tbe K.ar- nak. and Mr. Dunbar aceidenally came into pos session of the main facts, aud what we state rests solely niton his authority. Ihe British war fteamer Jasseur, which was lying at Jamiicn. on the 1st inst: received orders to set out immediately on a cruising vovage, and di'ectly sailed from that port. On the night of the 4th nst..shestruck a hidden rock to the north ward of JarnHica. The pumps were imm-diately man red and kept working until day-light, when it was discovered that the water was rapidly gaining, and that i would be impossible to keep her up but a short time. . ;' The captain ordered a raft to be constructed, nd to this were attached the wo boats belonging to the vessel, and the men, sixty in number, all went aboard, with such scanty provisions as they were able to eecure from the sinking wreck. A heivy gale set in soon after tbe mrn took to the raft, and they had' not been out above two hours when ten men were swept overboard and drowned. All efforts to rescue them were hopeless, th men hd all thy could do to prevent being washed away after them The captain seeing it was useless to cling longer to the raft, took nineteen men with him in the smaller boat, fnd the mate the remaining twenty rine into the larger one. It was considered use less t-" i.ttnmpt to keep together, and the captnin said they would each make the best of their way to land, without reference to each other. In a short time the boats were sepa'ated by the wind, and the larg-r boat, containing thiry men, has not been heard of since ai d it -is believed to have been lost with all on board. : The little provisions the men on tbe small boat had taken with them were soon consumed, and the wretched partv ws su' jested to the double suffer ing of cold and famine. At last, when all were completely exhausted and perishing, the roat was driven to a port on the southern coast of Cuba, and the entire party survived. The go- ernm' nt immediately sent out two ves iels to cruise in search of the missing boat; but their search had proved fruitless. Later advices from Havana confirm the above statement. Nothing has been heard from the missing noat. 'THE WANDERING AFRICANS." The fol'owing extrict from a letter received yesterday, by the editor, frojn a highly respecta ble citizen of Telfair county, will be found to con tain full particulars of the recent arrest of Afri cans in Worth county, and the circumstances un der which they were discharged from custody by the United States deputy marshal : "John F. McRae, of this county, deputv Uni ted Spates marshal, having been instructed by the marshal to capture any Africans he mi' nt find passing 'hrough lb- cuntry, was informed there were thirty-six in cbargeof one or two men on their way to the Alabama line. He summoned a posse ot ten men, some ot our best citizens, pursued and overtook the nerroes in Worth county, arrested th'-m as deputv United States marshal under bis instructions, and brought them to Jacksonville, and put tem in jail, anu sent an express to tbe marshal at Savannah reporting the arrest, and his action in the matter. Tho negroes remained here until the answer trom tne marshal came, which stated that ho had telegraphed and written to the authorities at Washington, and had received no answer respecting the Airicans then known to be in the country ; that tbe Government knew of the Africans being in the State, and had given him no orders, and that his advice was to turn them loosa and let them proceed on. their- way. vv nen tnis letter came, and as tbe arrest bad bean made by tbe authority of tbe United States, and in gooa laiui. me negroes were reieasea, tne person in charge of them paying for the provisions they consumed, and medical attention to those that - were sick. One or two of those assisting in arrest retook the negroes and demanded payment for their outlay and trouble, threatening to carry the Africans to Gov. Brown if it was not paid compromise was made to the satisfaction of the parties, and 'the last of tbe Wanderer's cargn were allowed to depart in peace. . Tbe negroes dis liked very much to leave, as they had been treated very kindly by the citizens." &ioJuiAf JiepypiZ' can, March 23. -j. .. . i ' 0UVQ A letter wi 4 t i i APPALLING CATASTROPHE 1 toss !
