" Mr. McCarty, Chief Engineer of the
Golden Ago, who wai a paucngnr in ttie
Central America, will make, it is under
stood, a statement to the Company of the
sad u II air. Thin genllutiiuii wurked side
by side with Asliby, and saw Lis whole
couduct from bngintiing to end, and al
though he says but little now, yot from the
tenor of litis conversation it jpeuri Atnuy
did all that mun could do to save the pas
sonerori of tho sliip. Ue stales that Aih
by lowered thefint sunt, and in doing so
was caught by tho ropes and drawn under
the guards and then into the sen, when
Contain Ilerndon was heard to say, " Poor
Ashbv is lent." Hut he rote and was
drawn on deck, after which hs succeeded
in lowering a boat which was filled with
ladies, and placed nudor his charge. While
tho boat was being filled, a number of men
rushed to the gangway to get into it, when
he ordered thorn buck, saying that the la
dies and child ren'should go first ; but they
not hooding his orders, kept pressing to
tho boat, whon ho drew a knifo and
threatened the life of any wan who should
get into the boat, until the fumales aud
children weresavod.
' And when the crew who manned the
boats reached the Marine and refused to go
back, ho again drew his knife and ordered
them to follow him on another trip to the
steamer, threatening these who refused:
the enptain of the brig interposed, saying
a boat could not live in such a sea. rind,
ins that he could net force his men to te
turn be had nothing to do but ronmin on
the vessel. All of this, it is said, will be
substantiated as soon as those near him on
the Contral America make their statements
and the Marine arrives.
. Asliby is the porton who distinguished
himself so much during the great riot be
tween the natives and Americans at I una-
ma, ns the leader of those Americana who
fouirht so bravely, tie still benra the
marks of I hut frlit on his body."
Capt. Burt, of the Murine, fully rxonor
ates Mr. Ashby from all blame. He says
tho boat's crew skulked away and hid
themselves in various parts of the brig,
so that be could not get a boat's crow
to go off.
' Gen. Jackson's Toilet. Tho genial
temper of President Buchanan, his eanyi
pleasant manners and racy conversation,
have always rendered him a great favorite
in society abroad as well as at home, and
few of our public men have laid up such a
stock ot amusing and valuable reminiscen
ces. There is one anecdote which ho tells
of Gen. Jackson, which is so characteristic
of the eld hero that it is worth preserving.
The President relates that one day during
tho administration of Old Hickory, he
went to the While House to ask permiss
ion to present to him the celebrated Miss
Betsy Cuton. Gen. Jackson readily as
sented, and named next day for the inter
view, At tho appointed hour Mr. Buchan
an repaired witli his fair charge to the
Presidential mansion, and leaving tho ludy
in ono of the drawing rooms he mounted
to the private cabinet of the President.
To his great surprise and disappointment,
ho found the General buried in his books
and papers, and attired in a plain morn
ing dress, his chin urvhaved aud his favor
ite pipe iu his mouth, Tho Senator from
Pennsylvania was grievously embarrassed.
He was apprehensive that if he announced
Miss Cntun's presence the gallant veteran
Would descend all in ntyliye as ho was.
Mr. ISuchanan did not likt to exposo the
renowned belle to such a shock as that,
and, on the oilier hand, ho equally dread
ed oil e rin J a suggestion on tho subject to
(he fiery old war horse. Thure was no al
ternative, however, and ho had to state
that Miss Caton was waiting the General's
prcsenco in tho jjrecu drawing room. Up
jumped Old Hickory nt Hie first word and
laid down his pipe. There wi.s not a mo
ment to be lost, bo Mr. Buchanan, in a
timid and apologetic miinnor, ventured to
observe that "the lady could vory well
wait till tho President hud shaved himself."
The General saw w hat he was driving at,
and shook his frizzly head at him like the
mane of nn enraged linn. "Buchanan,"
thundered out the impetuous old men,
v did you over hear of the mmi in Ken
tucky who got ricli by minding his own
business j" Without slopping to say
wbethor he was acquainted with tho re
markable individual in question, tho ex
perienced Senator flod fioia tho storm and
took refuge with his lovely companion
down stairs. In a few minutes afterwards
the hero of New Orleuns entered the room
with that dignity of manner which no
man knew better hew to assume ; and
great was Mr. Buchanan's relief to find
that not only was his face quite virginal
in its smoothness, but that he was got up
in his best black suit, with boots of fault
less radiance.

O Reillj announces that, in company with

Temperature or the Planets It is
well established cenolun'on, that the iu
perficial temperature of our globe has a
rived at that point below which it can
nover descend by more than the small
fraction of a degree, so long as all exter
nal conditions roiimio the same ai at pres
ent; and the superficial tempornture of
iho remoter planols will la all probability
be reduced to the corresponding limit. To
tlieso external conditions, therefore, aud
not to their primitive heat, must the exist
ing temperatures on the surface of these
planets be attributed, assuming always that
they are not of leu antiquity than our own
globe. Hence the superficial temperature
of the earth, with its present atmosphere,
placsd at the distance of Neptune, Ura
nut, or Saturn, would be very nearly 39
di g, 6 C, since the cfJect of our solar ra
dialiooef those distance would be nearly
insensible. Bat if tho extent of the at
moiphere were iocreated, the superficial
temperature would be augmented in Rcor
responding degree. Judging by the dec
rements of teinperaluro which bare been
observed, it is concluded that an iucrease
in the height of tho earth's atrnosphcroof
35,000 or 40,009 feet, would elevato her
supeificiul tempcraturo, if placed in the
remote plnnotary regions, to nearly the
mean temperature of our present temper
ate zone. The snmo conclusion will hold
with respect to the three pluiictt above
mentioned, if they be supposed to have at-
mofphcre similur to (hut of tho earth, and
of sufficient exteut.
