Important rrom Ruove Istanp.— There will certainly be a movement made by the Suffrage party headed by Dorr, to take possession of Rhode Islanc in a very few days. There is every indication of it in ouradvices from that section. Munitions of war are stolen every night, and companies are forming in allthe principal towas. And about the 4th oj July we may expect to hear of something rich. I the meantime we give the following :— ce Journal, June 22.) dated Norwich Wednesday mor- ch states that Thoms ¥. Dorr had arrived ir y in the steamboat Ne en, from New York, ac- panied with about twenty men.’ We have also seen who came on in the boat with him, and to Mr. Dorr was pointed out.

Wooding-up—New way of Celebrating the ath of July in Rhode Istand—Mysterious disappearance of Forty-eight Casks of Powder—Tearing of Panta- loons—Fire Arms in demand. Mr. Benyert:— , I lament to say that the expectations which were entertained here during the two or three weeks im- mediately succeeding our absent Governor's d comfiture, that the existing difficulties would be speedily and amicably arranged, and peace and quietness restored to the State, are very far from being realized. ‘The suffrage party are “firing up” again in a way that pretty plainly indicates that they don’t intend ‘to have their boat beaten. Meetings are being held by them nightly—oaths are admin: tered—companies formed, and stray cannon hooked in all directions. Twenty men went down to War- ren, a few nights ago, (well liquored up) and at- tempted to get possession of a couple of brass pieces belonging tothe Warren Artillery. Owing to some BUSS asto where they were kept, they did not succeed ; but after breaking open several buildings, including a small barn containing the village hearse, they fled—an alarm having beengiven by the watch. One of the men, I see by to-day’s Journzl, has been captured ; and in an attempt made by his comrades to rescue him, had his pantaloons torn off— handsome work! Duty Greene’s powder-house, a ssive stone building, with strong iron doors, been broken open, and forty-eight kegs owder (1200 lbs.) carried off by nobody knows who, to nobody knows where. Four locks were broken in order to getatthe powder. An attempt was made last evening, also, to hook an eight poun- der from the machine shop of Fale & Jenks, at Cen- tral Fails.

Hence, on Wednesday night, instead of putting forth pure, fresh, talented men, as the organs of the meeting, ind to address it, they put forth the same hacks that have tired the ears of the whige for the last five years. Thus we had no one but Mr. Joseph Hoxie, Mr. N.B Blant, Mr. Willis Hall,Mr David Graham, &e. All very good and worthy men in their place and station, but still not the right kind of men to commence a new and bold movement, requiring vast talents, lofty eloquence, great comprehensive- ness of mind, purity of principles, and above all, not only no desire to become a miserable office-hunter, but a high-minded and patriotic determinationnever Instead of which, we have to lead, direct, and regulate the whole meeting, four highly respectable gentlemen, distinguished for little else but their desire to get office, place and perquisites, and the tenacity with which they cling to office. Stull they “are all honorable men,” of cour: All! Though they are office-holders and hunte 3ut how much more influence they would have, if the orse was the case, Asaset-off to the Clay meeting, we have had « very large Tyler meeting tais week, at the Military Hall in the Bowery, at which the following resolu tions were passed unanimously and amid great ap plause, Alderman De Lamater was in the chair;— Ist.

Gainmell, however, was allowed a pass by the magistrate of the district to go to Hobart Town to get a model for a stump machine. And with that he stumped the British authorities; for by che assistance of some American sailors, then at Hobart Town, he made his escape on board of an American whale ship, and reached this city in fine health and spirits on last Wednesday at high noon, being the first of the American prisoners who has made his escape from Van Dieman’s Land. His numerous hair breadth escapes we will give at length hereafter. In the mean time, the poor fellow wishes us to state that the following American pri- soners have died there since he went out:— Peter Williams, of United States; Alexander M’ Leod, Gerard Van Camp, of Canada; John James M’Miller, do; Mr. Priest, Jefferson county, N.

We cannot speak too highly of either ship or commander, and those who wish to cross the broad Atlantic safely and comfortably, have here a fine chance. It is the intention of the fashionables who have taken passage in this packet to make the tour of Europe, and return in time for the winter season in New York. It is astonishing to see the rapid increase of travel to Europe. In the last five years it has been at the rate of twenty-five per cent per annum. There is no question but that the steamers have done their share in producing this happy result, by bringing the Eastern and Western Hemisphere closer to- gether, yet they have not been the whole cause. The safety and speed of our famous packet ships, andthe pspularity of their gentlemanly and skilful commanders has become so well known over the whole world, that those who have a desire to tra- vel, are now confident that they cancross the ocean with no more inconvenience or risk, than to ride up Broadway four in hand.

Stevens was president of a wildcat bank in Michigan, (now said to be restored to specie pay- ments.) He was jointly indebted, with Messrs. Thomas 8. Stevens and Davenport to the plaintiffs in the sum of $1253 40. Not suspecting that the kind aid and assistance ofthe Sheriff would be invoked in regard to them, they arrived at New York on business, in the early part of 1838. At that time, non-resident debtors were liable to imprison- ment, but the law very properly, has been since abolished. A writ was issued against them, at the instance of plain. tifts, William L. Stevens could not procure bail, and was committed to the debtors’ prison, at that time situated inthe Park. Special bail was given for Thomas 8. The plaintiffs went on, and obtained judgment in October,1938, supposing that the parties were in custody. Writs were issued, and return made by the Sheriff that no goods were found, and the parties were not within his bailiwick. The assistant sheriff, Mr. Dayton, and his brother, Fubsequently went to Detroit, an, it is asserted by plain- tifls, obtained securities for $10,000 or $15,000, on demands against Mr Stevens. One of them tendered to plaintiffs, on his return, a draft or certificate of deposite as to funds belonging to Stevens, from the State Bank of Michigan, on the Dry Dock Bank ,gfor $2,500, which they refused to en- dorse and receive, looking to the Sheriffior thcir yay in full, on the ground that he was liable for the escape ef Stevens, and also for making a false return. It appeared, from the testimony of one of the otticers of the prison, that Stevenstook French jeave of his new domicile b en the 20th May and 1st June, 1533, and went to higan, where he was beyond the reach of New York actions for debt, or of Mr, Sheriff Acker, although he left the latter liableto be called upon for the amount in which he had been imprisoned. The law requires that actions against the Sherif, in the event of escape, must be brought within ayearin order to be valid. This, the Court charged, did not appear to have been so brought. ‘The count asto false returns did not appear to have been fully proved, al- though actions are sustainable for such during three ye The Court charged, too, that a Sheriff is not holden for a debt where the prisoner that escapes was insolvent atthe time. On this point there seemed to be much differ- ence ofopinion, as related to Stevens. Defendants averred that he was poor, while the plaintiffs, on the contrary, showed that Rawdon, Wright and Hatch subsequently sent out ademand against him for $1,500, which was sued for and recovere he amount1 ow claimed of the Sherit!, for, principal and interest, in $1,512. ‘The jury found for defendant, For plainti(t, Messrs.

From Mostrvinro.—Admiral Brown, with the Buenos Ayrean squadron, sailed from the mouth of the harbor on the 23d inst. For several days previeus to iis leaving, re- ports were very current that a negotiation was going on with him and the government here. It is said that an ar- rangement is made, by which Brown has agreed to de- clare against the government of General Rosas, and unite in overthrowing it. That this government have agreed togivehim one hundred thousand dollars to pay his offi- cers aud crews, and another equal sum to indemnify him for the loss of his property at Buenos Ayres, which Rosas will undoubtedly sequestrate. The wholesale murders, of oggravated character, in the streets of Buenos Ayres, it issaid, have induced Brown to adept these measures, which, if accomplished, will produce the most happy re- sults for the government of Montevideo. It is that Brown has gone up the river to collect several Il ves sels of war, which are blockading the small rivers. Ina short time the result will be known, and if reports true, Buenos Ayres will be deluged with blood. No bu ness doing here, and vessels are leaving in ballast.

Proceedings in Congress—Condition of Af. fairs—History of the Apportionment Bit —Position of the Democrats towards th: President, The routine business of the Senate is very rarel of much public importance, but this morning it more uninteresting than usual. There were peti tions, memorials, and remonstrances—then game + joint rule respecting the action of Congress on pri vate bills, and after that the army appropriation bit was taken up, and 1s now under disenssion. Ta the House, there was the Virginia bounty lan bill, and then thetariff. The day is excessively hot and a-sort of languor has crept over the politica world at the east end of the avenue, as well as ove the face of nature. The condition of affairs in Congress is more ex traordinary than at any former period since the ac- cession of the whig party. The developments are getting to be more rich and redundant every day Washington has become the schcol for the science of the philosophy of politics, and a shrewd prophet is but the mere historian of a week’s advance of the events, 80 soon and certain do they follow his pre- dictions, Time has already brought into full view what was a few daysago sketched as only dimly seen in the future. The apportionment bill has pre- cipitated the crisis, and almost open war now rages among the contending parties. The history of that bill isa political curiosity, and of itself reveals and illustrates the entire story of the session, the state of partieshere, and the great probabilities of the fu- ture. This bill originated in the House, and as it con- cerned that body and not the Senate, common courtesy, not less than sound principle, seemed to render it one of those matters in which the House ought mainly to decide. But not so thought the Senate, which has grown jealous of the House, and fearing it would be less subservient if enlarged ; at the same time anxious to cast from themselves upon the House that merited odium in the public mind now existing against Congress, they resolved to seize upon this occasion to carry out their purpose. Accordingly, the Senate, in the most insulting man- ner, amend the bill in those very points in which the House had taken its ground ‘most deliberately and decidedly, Thus amended, it was returned to the House, when, in a very firm and proper manner. the House asserted its own dignity and rights by a prompt and large rejection of the offensive amend- ment. To the uninitiated,the affair seemed now at anend, and that the House had only to renew its bill, when the Senate must and would yield, as a matter of course. And such would have been the result, had not the great leaders of this meyement found it, or thought it, necessary to lay aside the mask, and make a bold demonstration on the public mind — This was done, and in two short days, to the amaze- ment of all. ‘The House recede from their hono- rable position, and ingloriously yield an abject sub- mission to the Senate. Thus admitting themselves to be, what in the Senate they were charged with being, an unstable and tumultuous mob, without or- der or the sense of even their own dignity, and who would only be fitted to fill their places by a reduc- tion of their numbers. This performance is one of the finest specimens of true political legerdemain on record. But few here even now understand it, and nothing can be more amusing than the growling and indignant amazement of those honest and pure members of the House, who find themselves to have been so grossly deceived and degraded, and are yet unable to comprehend why or how it has been done . Let us try if we cannot disclose some of the mo- tives as well as the modus operandi. | _ ltis necessary to go back to the position of par- ties and their leaders, in order to understand the motives and ends of this movement, and how ii came to pass that on a sudden, and as if by magic, thismost obnoxious apportionment bill, which nc one human being likes as it is, and would not like better in any other form, and whose constitutionali ty the soundest men deny, should have become the ‘avorite af the Senate, and been torced through House to which it was an insult and reproach, « stigma and ashame. Let us see, then, how these factions and their leaders stand, and what common object they could have had, in thus combining their entire and discordant forces, on the sober excep- tions, upon so odious a measure, which it wes known the President did not approve, and which al- most every Van Buren man in Congress opposed.— If we can discover that this scheme of apportion- ment is calculated to defeat the nominatien of Mr. Tyler or Mr. Van Buren as the democratic candi- date in 1844, and to weaken their force in that par- ty, we shall have learned, pee its true origin, chavester and interest. ‘The fo lowing considera- tions may serve to elucidate the mystery. Ever since Mr. Tyler became President, the Van Buren democrats, both in and out of Con- gress, have treated him and his administra- tion with a certain degree of candor and jus tice. In no state was there so open and honor able applause bestowed upon _his vetoes as the democratic press and people of New York rendered on that occasion, from the ocean to the lakes. The same feeling pervades the entire mass of the demo- cracy of the Union, and would have equally exhi- hited itself, had not the other leaders of that party been seized with a sudden jealousy of Mr. Tyler, and suvpressed its manifestation as far as possible The Van Buren leaders have been more generous, and show an open readiness to co-operate with the administration whenever the President should disengage himself from the false embraces of the whigs, while the others have embarrassed its ap- proach to the democratic line, and forced it to main- tain that equivocal and entangling alliance with a portion of ‘Sie whigs which has so much perplexed Its action, but which events have now made im- impracticable for a longer period. In other words, they had too much sagacity, to say no- thing of " generosity, to oppose Mr. ‘Tyler, when ‘his course had so greatly aided the de- mocratic cause, and he was willing and anxious to be sustained in rac Ha UOD ce the republican party, and to carry out their principles as rapidly as it could be done with a due regard to the circum- stances of the country. They felt that if Mr. Tyler by his acts, could make himself the best candidate for the party in 18H, he had a perfect right to do so, and they had no right to prevent it, and would not lend themselves to hinder it. The other leaders thought differently, and hence their game has been to urge Mr. Tylertoinjure the whigs, and then to ruin him; for they feared his popularity would eclipse their own, if he became identified with'the party. And hence, too, these leaders and Mr. Clay hada common object in bringing political ruin on Mr. Tyler, and preventing a junction between the de- mocracy and his administration. To keep Mr. Tyler and the democracy asunderhas been the mu- tual aim of Mr. Clay and a portion of the demo- cratic leaders, and hence he has been forced for the last year, by their joint machinations to hold a false and bad political position before the country. _ This brings us to the consideration of the particu- lar attitude and interest of these factions in this marvellous apportionment bill. But the history has already so far extended itself that the remainder must be deferred until to-morrow. Wasutnctox, Wednesday evening. Army Bill=The Tarlff—Negociations with England. The Senate, this evening, passed the Army Appro- priation Bill, amended so as to restore it nearly to its original shape. It has yet to go through the ordeal of the House, but that body will probably yield on this question, as they have done in every thing else. In such an event the army will be preserved in its present size. The Extension Tariff Bill is to be taken up in the Senate to-morrow. There is some talk among the whigs of modifying the distribution feature so as to obviate the objections of the President, and to frame the regular tariff bill with a view to extract a veto. Perhaps this is the wisest course. If they are determined to force the President to a veto, let it be ona full grown bill. Thislittle affair is hardly worth the ink it would take to’kill it. Tt isunderstood that the labors of Lord Ashbur- ton are nearly brought to a close. No doubt is now entertained that the negotiations will be satisfacto- rily consumniated at anearly day. All the points of difficulty between the two governments are in the progress of adjustment, and it is eaid that the treaties will be ready for ratification in the course of next week. This is like to be a glorious business for President Tyler’s administration ; and what a beau- tiful opportunity will be presented for Mr. Webster to retire from the cabinet with credit and honor, if circumstances should render it undesirable for him to remain. bs Baitimore, [Correspondence of the Herald.} Batimone, June 23, 1842. Important Arrest—Recovery of $2,582 50 in Gold. Mr. Eprron:— It will be remembered that during the absence of a gen- tleman named Hoffmaster, some time since, from his home in Philadelphia, two individuals entered his house on pre was attending to business during her husband's absence. She, it seems, left the store for a short time, leaving the in- viduals in it alone, during which, and before her return, they succeeded in getting 470 Sovereigns from a bureau in which they had been deposited, and made off with them, One of the party was arrested not long ago in Philadel. phia, who betrayed his fellow in guilt, telling of his whereabouts, &c. Polive officers Hays, Zell, and Ridgley, proverbial for their indefatigableness and energy, were put on the track of theone who had made this city his re- fuge, and in a very short time succeeded in arresting him, snd recovering the above amountof money, which, upon investigation, proved to be the property of Mr. Hot master. The name ofthe robber is William Van Vlee He has been committed to prison. ¢ A new and elegantly constructed bark mill, of tanneries, invented by Valentine Bierly, F ck, Maryland, is now in operation in this city, at | the very extensive tan yard of Mr. Heald, North sirce It is denominated the horizontal cylendrical bark mill; The machine is very simple in itsconstruction, composed merely of a metal frame, probably 5 feet in length, 3 in heighi, and 2 in width, with three horizontal cylenders | one over the other. It is calculated to grind a third more bark, in the same time, than any other machine in use, (say three cords per hour) and can be propelled | either by horse, steam or water power. The ame gen- tlemen has invented what he terms a “corn crusher,” | which is on the same principle of the bark mill, and | promises to be of great utility to farmers. 4 The company tobe denominated the “ Texian Fenci- bles,” whose object was to repair t inhabitants in repelling the invasion, have declined the notion of going.
