A 5) to the N. Y. Herald from Eastport, Maine, has the following:—A ware- house on Indian Island was burned last nigim by a band (supposed to be Fenians) to whom its owners (Americans) had become obnoxious. Another English gunboat had arrived. Passengers who left San Francisco on the ‘Wth ult. give farther particulars of the collision between the Libera nd the French at Mazat- lan. The French troops marched out of the city togive the Liberals battle. The fighting Was very severe, no prisoners being taken on either side. The officer in command of the French forces was killed. The last advices from the seat ef war state that reintorcemen‘s were en rowle for the French at Mazaulan. The military situation at Acapulco remained un- changed. The United Siates gunboat Saranac was lying in the harbor on the (th instant. The Imperial cousul at San Francisco, Cal., Mr. Gnuuiltin, has received advices of March 25, and asserts that no battle had then taken place. Advices from Aspinwall state that the Pana- ma Railroad Company's splendid freight house isapile of ruins by the explosion. There is searcely a building in the place that is notdam- aged. The steamer Caribbean was semiously damaged. Nine of the crew of the steamer European were killed and twelve missing. Twoof the clerks of the Panama railroad were killed, as weil as thirteen natives who were employed on the wharf or iu the freight-honse. Its also believed that a small gang of native laborers were killed. The total loss of lite is about fifty. The loss of property is estimated at one million dollars. Advices from South America state that the Spanieh frigate Blancaana the iron-clad Nu- mancia were driven out of the channel at Tabildad by Chillian sharpshooters, whose fire they were unable to return. There is con- siderable talk of the bombardment of Valpa- raiso. The American steamer Uncie Sam is reported to have been seized by the Spanish squadron at Valparaiso. A fire yesterday evening destroyed James Waters’ flax factory, on Ninth street, above Columbia avenue, Philadelphia, Pa. The building and machinery were totally destroyed.

Hambrick, Provost Judge, and Hugh Latham, Mayor, showing that the Ine of demarcation between the military and civil powers is got us cleurly defined there as might be desirable for the sake of harmony. Capt. Hambrick writes to the Mayor: “One of the colored women yon confined to work house for using abusive language to an Irish woman, on Monday last, has a child starving for the want of someone to attend to it. I think her name is Ross. The Irish woman was to binme tor this whole transaction, and 1 was astonished when 1 saw that you had listened to her story instead of the colored woman. I ask you to release these women trom the work house. IfJnot I shall be compelled to make the request ‘rom Department Headquarters. | have inVestigated the case.” The Mayor in answer to this says: «J regret to find that you have made a request that is in- compatible with my sense of duty, and right togrant. These women were brought to this office at your request, and the eridence of Mrs. Carroll was very conclusive. 1 could do no- thing less than Assess a small fine and costs, and upon their failure to pay they were com- mitted to the work house according to law. I wilt release them upon the payment of all the costs. J regret the separation of the child from its mother, and will cheerfully grant a permit to have it conveyed to her; in fact I have been expecting an application from some of the neighbors of the woman.” And there the matter ends for the present. Tue REVENUE Uase aT BUFFALO.—In the revenue case decided by Judge Smalley, at Buffalo, N. Y., on Wednesday, it appears that a Mr. Brown was summoned before the as- sessors of the thirtieth district in July, 1565, and required to testify in regard to the income returns made by him in 1562 and 1663, and the special income tax of 184 The assessor claimed that Mr. Brown was the owner of $120,000 in railway bonds at the time stated, while he returned an income of only $15,000. Mr. Brown stated that he had sold bonds, but refused to inform the assessor to whom he had sold them. Mr. Brown was brought up on an aitachment before the judge, who was to de- cide whether he was bound to give the infor- mation demanded. After full argument by counsel, Judge Smalley decided that the four- teenth section of the revenue law had no re- troactive effect: that the assessor, having re- turned his list of assessments to the collector, bas no power to institute fresh inquiry, or compel the production ef books and papers. He says there should be some limit of time be- yond which this inguasitorial power of the as- sessor to examine into the private business transactions of every person should not be ex- ercised. 1t follows that the assessor had no autherity to call Brown before him when he did, and that Brown was under no obligations to answer any question put to him. Judge Smaliey holds further that, if fraudulent re- turns are made, the remedy is by indictment under the fifteenth section, or for perjury under the forty-second section of the revenue act. Brown was ordered to be discharged. United States District Attorney Dash appeared for the Government, and the Hon. John Ganson for Mr. Brown. TrE Norro.k Rior—One Man Killed and Four Dangerously Wounded.—The riotous de- monstrations attending the negro procession at Norfolk, to celebrate the passage of the civil rights bill, proves to have been a more serious affair than at first reported. The disturbance occurred ina field in Upper Union street, in the suburbs of the city, and originated with a number of the rowdy element jeering at the procession, anda few negroes maddened and inflamed with iiquor. Fire- iS were tre- quently discharged, and, as is fisna) in such cases, innocent spectators were the greatest sufferers. The following are the names of those killed and wounded: Robert Whitehurst killed, and his step-mother mortally wound- en, John Whiteburst dangerously wounded. Wm. Mosely, a city watchman, badly beaten, and his son so dangerously wounded that his life is despaired of. Lawrence Hampton, a colored man, was seriously wounded by a bay. ids of one of the negroes.

Senate.— Yesterday, after our report closed the act im relation to the corpus was ciseussed at some length by Messrs. Clark, Saulsbury, Doolittle, Howard, Johnson, and others. Mr. Sanisbury moved to amend by striking out the seventh section. Mr. Doolittle would suggest a substitute to the Senator from Delaware, which he thought would meet his views. He would move to strike out the word + judges” in the fourth section. It is certainly a novel case to punish & judge tor refusing to issue a writ or decide upon & question actually before him. The question was then taken on the amend- ment of Mr. Doolittle; which was disagreed te. The amendmen: of Mr. Saulsbury, striking out the fourth section,.was then disagreed to Mr. Edmunds offered an amendment to fol- low the end of the first section, making it the duty of the Secretary of War, in any suits or prosecutions coming within the provisions of this act, to carry on the same at the expense of the United States, and to indemnify the plain- tiffs or respondents tor all costs. After some discussion, the amendment was disagreed to. Mr. Howe offered an amendment, making it the duty of the Attorney General and the sey- eral United States district attorneys, in cases to which this act applies, to defend such cases at the request of the respondents. Mr. Doolittle offered an amendment that in such States and Territories where martial law did not prevail, and the civil courts were in full operation, such order shall be prima facie a defense, provided that it was not malicioasly or oppressively done. The question was then taken on the amend- ment of Mr. Howe, which was disagreed to. Mr. Hendricks offered an amendment, ex- cepting from the provisions of the bill acts done maliciously or with cruel or unnecessary se- verity, on which he demanded the ye: which being ordered, the amen: disagreed to by a vote of 1s to 16. Mr. Doolittle withdrew his amendment, and the bill was then passed, Messrs, Buckalew, Guthrie, Hendricks and Saulsbury in the negative. On motion of Mr. Clark, when the Senate adj day next. On motion of Mr. Sprague, the Senate ad- journed.

Charles Kingsley, several other clerzy- men of the Church of Engiand have published their disbelief in the eternal punishment of the wick The London Patriot of March 29th says :—“ Mr. E. F. Litton, M. A.; the Rev. Thomas Davis, M. A., incumbent of Round- bay, and the Rey. John Barton, M. A., curate of Rivenhall, Essex, all contend that the natn- ral immortality of the soul cannot be estab- lished either by reason or Scripture; that eter- nal life is conferred by God through Christ upon the redeemed, and that the wicked are destined literally to perish. We bave heard, thongh we are somewhat doubiful of the a thority, that Mr. Barton has been called to ac- count for his book ¥y the Bishop of Rochester; but after the decision in the Wilson case, it is not likely that either he or any of those who think and write as he does will be hindered tgom promulgating their views.” CRINOLINE Done For.—The Paris corres- pondent of the New York Times supplies the following interesting item: Talking of fashions, crinoline is Gone for. It has gone out of the fashionable world all at once, like a .melting SROW ora vanishing rainbow. How could a poet say, “a thing of beauty isa joy forever!” Only the servants and yery common people now wear the wonderful expansions, and they drop them 4s soon as they get a good look at their slim betters. The sudden change is very droll. You meet a lady an the street and look behind her to see if she has not dropped some- thing. The rotandiues gradually collapsed, and all at once vanished, and are now, “though Jost to sight to memory dear.” Bat what is to become of the manufacturers of those wonder- ful articles which the French call cages!’ Can they be used in the fisheries, or for hen coops Now we have the gored dresses and trains of the first empire, which, in a month’stime, will seem so becoming and beantiful that we shall wonder bow we could ever have admired any other fashion. A Nove WaGer.—An amusing story is go- ing the round of the Paris clubs. It appears that a short time agoa foreign prince made a heavy bet that he would be arrested by the po- lice without committing any offence whatever, or im any way provoking the authorities. The bet having been taken by a member ef the im- perial Club, the prince went to one of the most aristocratic cafes in Puris, dressed in a battered bat, a ragged blouse, and boots all in holes, and, sitting down at one of the tables, ordered a cup of coffee.

A REMARKARLE SvIT.— An action was broughtin the New York Court of Common Pleas, the trial of which was begun on Mon- day, by the wile of the notorious Isaac Ryn- ders, against the executors of the celebrated comedian Wm. E. Burton. The actor gave to the wife of the politician, in 1559, two notes for $2,000 each, the consideration of which is said to have been an agreement on the part of Capt Rynders to “use his influence” (which Was more powerful at that time than now) to induce the Government to lease his theater for court rooms and offices. These notes have not been paid, and the executors of Mr. Burton’s estate refuse to pay them, on the ground that Rynders never did exert his influence to, and tbat if he had it would have been a violation of his duty as United States Marshal, which position he held under Mr. Buchanan’s ad- ministration. The case was on trial at last accounts. .
