Mr. Murdoch's first Apjtearanre?Mrs. Mutt'" Concert?Roguery?The Weather. Your success in obtaining and publishing the lust English newB, via this city, in advance ol all your New York contemporaries, und even the press of this city, makes some editors swear, aud the public to stare. The people look on unprejudiced; they say, " well, we don't know exuctly how Bennett does it, but we do know (and it is all they care for, wrungle e'er so much), that he always gives us the news ahead of all other papers." Our city election for Mayor, as you have already published, has resulted in the election of Hon. Jo siah Quincy, the whig candidate ; the demociatB and natives did not do anything The latter party ia about " ex-deluuct." One of the daily paper*) cunningly nays tluit the natives died 5 osterdav of the <|iiiu>ey. Mr. Murdoch made tin excellent dthut in Boston, in the higher walks of the drama, on Monday evcni?g. I have seldom heard of mnro universal and continued upplau?e in any instance than greeted his lirst appearance upon llie stage. Alter tho close of the performance, he made i a neat and appropriate speech in answer to the call made upon him by the audience. The Howard Athe naeum was filled on the occasion l>y a critical and discri minating audience, and Mr M. is set down as having proved successful in his new line ol performance Last eveuing he periormed Claude Melnotte, supported by Mrs Maeder; he was excellent. Mrs. Mutt's conceit Monday evening was attended by a most fashionable audience, who received the lady with the utmost kindness aud consideration. She was fie iiuantly encored throughout, and the general decision was fully in bar favor She sings with grace and ease, and her voice appears to be well calculated for the con cert room.

An assembly got together for some ostensible pur pose a few days siuce, among whom were Daniel Web ster, aud other distinguished men ; but after all were got together it turned out to be a hoax The rogue cannot be discovered who is perpetrating these rascalities.

Vie Progress of Elder Knapp?Religion* Jfairi? Business?Snow Storm, 4"c- 4"'; As your journal is really the only correct source ot general information?in evidence ot the fact, 1 tind you are quoted every where, to the exclusion of all others, even the Wall street press ot your city therefore, in communicating intelligence, we seem to be compelled to ask a place in the Herald, to give it value and circulation. The above tacts being no torious, it may seem superfluous in me, as a preface; but 1 hold that a valuable truth cannot be too often repeated. In commencing my epistle, I would inform you that Elder Knapp, the great apostle of the Baptist Church, has been with us about three weeks; and, although political and other questions of an excituig character always to some extent exist, the Llder has, however, like a sudden variation of the wind, with increased force, blown down the rough sea ot nil other excitements, and taken our place by storm; overwhelming the whole Baptist Church with the necessity of a radical and thtrough regeneration. Old backsliders in and out of the church, have been made to shout " Hosannah to the King ot Kings The young have caught the electric tire, and that magnetic sympathy, so prevalent on such occasions, is visible to a large extent?bringing the masses indiscriminately to the altar ot Elder Knapp. flaking " What they shall do to be sayd 1 Trie Elder s areat powera in portraying the horrors ot the darK regions, and the beauty and joyn ot heaven, do excite, and especially prompt the young, at once to give battle to Satan's kingdom. As you remarked in truth some two years since, in lavitiug him to visit New York, you rather seem to admire hi* indepen dence as you said "when he meant Devil?ho said Devil; when ho meant Satan?he said Satan." In view of'1" hold and uncompromising method, many ot the otner Protestant churches are much alarmed.

In closing the above nubject, I do really wish the Elder may do great good. The season has just approached which may be consi dered auspicious in this matter. When business be comes light, and the grasping, selfish, money-making principles to some extent shut up, there is no doubt that the reflecting mind has peculiar advantages in a retro spect view ol its past conduct, espe ially the business man, whether he ha* " done unto others as he would be Our city, in a business point of view, this season, has, in all its b anche* and interests, been satisfactory.

Our profes sional gentry are, more or less, rathor hard run for busi ness, especially our three or lour nundred lawyeis ?

S/vannah, Geo., Dec. 3, 1845. Travel* at the South? Views of the Country, fyc. I have recently made a circuit through the South ern States in search oi a healthy and pleasant resi dence. We reached Charleston early in October. The city looks antiquated as you approach it from the wharf, but King street and the promenade streets of the city present an array of taste and. beauty quite refreshing to the eye of the stranger from the north. Flowers in every variety and profusion peep from the lattices and adoru the walks and windows where ever you go. Some of the private residences have an air of easy comfort quit? like home. The city government is managed with great efficiency, and probably no city in the Union is more thoroughly guarded by night, as well as by day. One fact, mo rally speak in g, reflects everlasting credit on South Carolina, un.l so t.ir as it may be true, the whole South. Crimea of a darker dye are seldom perpe trated in South Carolina. Murder, arson, highway robbery, are almost unkown there. The judges of the higher courts?and no State can boaat better men or more faithful and efficient jurists?will assure you that their court dockets are seldom stained with thoie i bloody and barbarous details to common in other parts of our country. I have not time to nay tnore of South Carolina, but 1 love her hospitable, high-minded sons and daughters,and in W' al ?nd woe 1 say God bless her. On board the William Heabrook, the noblest of south ern boats, with its excellent captain, sitting down to a table literally loaded with every luxury ot every mar ket, dore up intlrxt rate style, winding along the green and sunny inlands that dot the coast like gems in the sil ver waters, we reached Savannah, tho city of Ogle thorpo. Stopped at the Pulaski House, kept by Captain Wiltberge , who, with bis good lady, give prima fucit ' evidence of good cheer. More of Snvauuah anon Southward we went in the ina.l boat via Brunswick, 1 Darien, st Mary's, Jacksonville, Klu., and stage, to St. Augustine, tho oldest settlement. The old Spanish city, its dismantled fort,narrow streets,across which y?.u may almost look from window to window, and varied popula tion, Americans, Spaniards, Mino cans?soldiers of the t'nited States stHtioned here, seemed strange in our northern eyes. It has beon gay, but since the destruc tion of the orange trees, once a source of large income to the inhabitants, by that troublesome insect the "coc cus," and the f moval of a large portion of the t'nited States tioops stationed there, together with their popu lar and efiicient commander, (Jen. Worth, whose house was the abod ? of hospitality, 1 am told times seem dull On going out in the morning upon the sea wall, the east wind struck us all aback. It comes home to one's very | heart, and seems laden with :<n unwonted ch 11. St. Au | gustine has lost some of its former reputation for health, and is less resorted to by invalids from the north than lorinorly. They choose situations further from the sea board, where the damp sea air loses by its passage over wood and land much ol its chill and humidity. The pro gress ot territorial occupation throws open new and healthier places in all parts ol tho country. Jackson ville has a better air than St. Augustiue, but the place is sandy. Without exercise, or a place where the invalid may wa k or rido with comfoit, much of the benefit of a I mild clioiate seems lost. Many Northerners, in delicate health, feeling the insi dious approach of disease, would go South, if tliey knew where to 40. A11 looks strange to thorn. Shall 1 not do u favor to such, by pointing out a place to them, of all others in the Uiii'ed States, the most desirable for a per ' fan in delicate health, with or without a family?1 mean : St. .Marys', Geoigia. I have heard but one opinion, and ! that it is a healthy place. It has good air, good water, | pleasant streets, wide and grassy walks for miles about I tUe town, and excellent board, at reasonable terms.? ! Orange Hall, formerly a private residence, is delightful : ly situated at the upper end of the city, and has accom j modutions that cannot fail to suit a stranger. This board 1 ing house is kept i>y Mr. and Mrs. Davis. It stands on | the highest point in the city, and is embosomed in a large grave ot orange trees, now in bearing. The city of St. Mary's is situated on St. Mary's river, about nine miles from the ocean; has some 800 inhabitants, who all think it one of the healthiest spots on earth. There are no rice fields or local causes of disease. Oranges are raised thero, sometimes in great abundance, and are also brought from the neighboiing islands. There is a very extensive orange grove at "Dungenness," the late resi dence of the widow of Gen. Nathaniel Greene, the Wash ington of the South. It is a place well worth visiting, and deserves a more minute description than I have time . to give it now. The gardens have orange*, lemons, ci' ronh, peaches, nectarines, pomegranates, tigs, the white and bluo, and grapes in every variety uud abundance. Game is plenty, and we often hear this hunter's horn in the morning,* and see the dead deer in the afternoon.? Smail biids, partiigus, alias the northem quail, snipe, kc. are found?and a New Yorker there, who is a first rate shot, seldom goes out with his dog in vain. The market is good, and the boats, North and South, eveiy few days, can furnish or biing anything the northern or southern market ran afford. Vessels from New York go thero frequently on their wuy to the mills above, wheie an extensive business is done in lumber. Vessels from New York to Savannah, excellent packets, run every three or four days. Terriblk Shipwkkck and Lous of Lit k.?The shipwreck of the ill-fated French barque Kmilie, on ! our coast, han awakened in the public mind tbe must in tense commiseration and pity, and the awful death* con sequent upon it, the most soul.harrowing feelings and emotions. A naval friend, who visited the scene of dis aster, lias kindly supplied the luck and furnished us with tho tallowing particulars : The barque Emilie, 01 Bordeaux. Captain Sauvestre, went ashoie on Tuesday j night last during a gale from the noitbeast, and the wea ther being so thick ami foggy she was not seen Irom the shore until the following day. The vessel is a total loss ?she was in baliust, and consigned to Robertson St Branda, of this place. She is now lying in three fathoms water, nit more than 15i? yards irom tho beach. The * loin and mainmast ore still standing with all their sails ! and rigging yet upon them. The following is the ac j count ol this melancholy disaster, as 1 obtained it from the captain an d crew, which is confirmed by the Com missioners of vVrecks, who were on the spot. On Tues day, the captain was unable to obtain un observation at ineiiilian for his latitu ie, but by dead reckoning he sup nosed himself sufficiently farnoith to stand in lor the land, and made Cape Henry. He sounded several times during the afternoon, and felt confident of his position, nnl stood on, hoping to see tho light or get a pilot. At 8 P.M., not seeing the land, he determined to " wear ' ship," and stand ott shore ; and while in the act of sound ; ing, the vessel struc*, and so violently as to tear off the ludder, sternpost, and pint of the stein frame ; she im mediately sunk in two and a half fathoms water, the sea making n complete breach over her from stem to stern The launch was immediately got out, but was stove and sunk alongside. As the deck was tinder water and every sea washing over thorn, the captain and crew took ref uge in the tops, and remained all night in this horrid situa tion, espccting every moment to be washed overboard with tho masts?they were all wet, and with no shrlter from the wind and i old. The next day, (Wednesday,) tho weather was still so thick that they could not see the land, nor could they be seen from the shore until late in the afternoon, although the vessel is so near the bench. The erewwith much ditticultysucceeded in sending down the fore and fore-topsail yards, and constructed a raft for the purpose of reaching the shore. Previous to launch ing the raft, one of the crew, in attempting to swim ashore, was drowned; tbe remainder now attempted to embark on the raft; ten of them succeeded in reaching it, but the line that attached it to the wreck was parted by the violence of the sea, leaving the captain, mate, and one of the crew still on board. The raft was soon alter driven on shore, and four of the ten persons who embarked on it were saved; the other six perished from : the sold and exhaustion, after reaching the beach; one { other person was drowned alongside ol the ship, before shoving ofl', but his body came en shore soon afterwards. ! Throughout the day, the weather continuing vary bad. and tbe surf being too high to launch about, no assis nnce could be rendered from tho shore to the three sur vivors yet on the wieek, and wbo were plainly to be seen in the foretop making signs lor help; they remained there all night exposed to thebleak north wind The next morning, Thursday, John K. Whitous, Alfred Bon ny, Mr Moore and Mr. Cason, luunched ? boat and jmt , oil'to the wreck, mid rescued the sufferers from their I perilous situation, but nearly insensiblo from cold and ! ' hunger. The six bodies that w ere found were tempora- [ rily interred on the beach, and the suivivors taken to the house of Noah Chappel, at Little Island. The con- , signers, Robertson St Bmnda, received intelligence here on Friday night, end hearing at the nme time that the captain and crew were all French, and could not speak \ j a word of English, despatched at once one of their clerks with warm clothing, and conveyances to bring up the } captain and crew. Mr. Fteurot, the American Consul at Maitimque, being in the city, took a carriage and pro I ceoded ?o the wreck, in company with Robertson k Bran I da's agents to render his services as an interpreter to tho survivors, and has just returned in company with j ! mTtelf to th>! city The captain of the Kmilie, and one \ of hi* me'*, are now at the house of Major C.mick, una- ( ble to be removed. The remainder of the crew are yet at Little Island, but will come up to the city to-morrow I or next day. - Norjmk htmcon, Ore. P.

One body, consisting of u thousand in number, contemplate leaving Arkansas next spring. Another and moro numerous company is form ing in Missouri, and in Illinois a band of pioneers are or ganizing- all destined for that Eldorado of the present day. The Burlington Hawk-Eyr, alluding to this dispo sition to wander away from tho valuable lands ol tbe Union, says?" If our people are not satisfied with such beautiful and fortile lands as aro to be found in every part of Illinois and Iowa, they assuredly will not bo con touted with California. And if they ever arrivo there, they will be as eager to leave as they we.oto go."
