NEW YORK HERALD. New ork, Wednesday, April 12, 1843. " Merald Literary Depot, All the new and cheop literary publications of the day are for sale, wholesale and retail, at the Hrratp Orrica, northwest corner of Nassau and Fulton street. To the Carriers of the Herald, Several of the Carriers of the Herald are in the habit of delaying to serve our subscribers and readers to as late an hour in the morning as § or 9 o'clock, in order to be able to serve other papers at the same time. Unless our Carriers serve our subscribers always as early as 7 o'clock, we shall dismiss them. N.B.—Applications for new Carriers will be received at this office. Biswor Hvenss anp THe Cxurcn oF St. Louis, Burrato.—We have received from Bishop Hughes several letters and decuments relative to the diffi- culty in the St. Louis Catholic Church of Buffalo, and have been requested by his friends to examine these papers, in order to be satisfied that the Bishop’s conduct. has been consistent and correct throughout that painful matter. We shall do so with the greatest pleasure, for we have no feelings in the matter, other than those of justice, truth, fair-dealing, a respect for Bishop Hughes, and a desire to promote the cause of sound morals and religion. Result of the Election—Terrible Annthilas tion of the Whig party in New York. The charter election for New York, the metrope- lis of the Union, closed last evening at sundown, and the result was of the most awful—most excru- ciating—most overwhelming—most everlasting de- feats that ever overtook the whig party in this latitude. The “fierce young democracie” have re-elected Robert H. Morris Mayor of New York by a majority of four to five thousand, and two- thirds of the corporation, of both branches. The locofocos are perfectly frantic with delight, and the whigs are utterly gone. The “old coon” is at last dead, aud buried ten fathom deep. Oh! ol! oh! Such an overwhelming defeat never yet has been given to the Whigs since the time of General Jack- Under the banner of Robert Smith, the pros- pects of Henry Clay are scattered to the winds—and unless the Whigstake up some new man, celculated to create enthusiasm, such as General Scott or General Cass, they never can carry a State in the Union. They perilled the whole fortune of Mr. Clay in this contest, and all is gone at ‘‘one fell swocp.” The causes of this extraordinary result, one of which is the bad character and rotten natre of the Wall street press, we shall investigate to- morrow. They are curious and interesting, and will have a controlling influence on the next presidency. The “fierce democracie” having thus achieved a tremendous victory, will now begin, in their own camp, one of the most exciting contests for the democratic candidate for the next presidency that ever took place—a contest between the rival houses of Van Burenand Calhoun. Look out for wonders. ‘We shall go into the heart of things anon. son. Election Returns, 5,590 1,472 The above is the result so faras ascertained last evening, and sufficient information was obtained to authorize us to assert that the Democrats have elect- ed their Mayor by over 4,000 majority, and also se- cured the election of a majority of the members of the Common Council. The final result will be made known to-morrow. A post mortem examination will be held on the whig party this day at Tammany Hall, when all “splits,” “rents,” “ tears,” and ‘ openings,” will be closed up and endorsed, secnred and approved of for one year by the General Tammany Hall Com- mittee. Tue Tuirteen Corners or Reticion, Lirera- TURE AND Priosorny.—From Fulton street toTam- many Hall there are thirteen corners, embracing within the distance of a half minute’s walk more religion, literature, and philosophy, than can be found within the same distance in any other city in the world. Within this distance are all the lead- ing and controlling newspapers, periodicals, and magazines—here are the two grand depots of bibles and tracts, and the head-quarters of the Bible So- ciety, of the Tract Society, of the Missionary So- ciety, of the Abolition Society, of the Coloniza- tion Society, of the Moral Reform Society, anda host more whose names we do not,;now remember. The capital employed in all these various literary, religious, and philanthropic institutions, amounts to some millions of dollars—and the light, knowledge and trath annually diffused, to an untold amount. The Herald isthe grand centre of all these organi- zations. Mr. Guipvon’s Lzcrures.—Mr. Gliddon deliver- ed his first regular lecture toa very respectable and numerous audience. It had a good deal of interest. Bat Mr. Gliddon is very unequal in his lectures.— Whilst he confines himself to matters of fact, such as the deciphering of the Egyptian hyeroglyphics, he 1s instructive and interesting, but he every now and then launches out into passages which he in- tends to be very eloquent, and indulges in the most vehement invective against all who presume to infer from his statements that the chronology of Moses is incorrect. He declares almost in set terms that all who make such deductions are no gentlemen, and consequently that he will not give a challenge to them, nor accept one from them. This is injudi- cious and in bad taste. Mr. Gliddon should stick to his text, and endeavor to attain more skill in the work of generalization and analysis. ‘Tre Sraeets.—The mud and filth with which our Streets Yeie covered during iid winter were pro voking cnough in all conscience, but the clouds of dustin which we have been enveloped for the last week, are beyond the endurance of a Job. Itis really most intolerable to walk the streets and have one’s eyes blinded at every step, being all the time aware that a hydrant at every corner presents ample means of rendering the streets passable. The con- duct of the street contractors is utterly disgraceful and inexcusable. Packet Sure Swrrzer.ann.—It is with pleasure we learn that this packet ship is safe. On refer- ence te the ship news it will be seen that she put into Newport, R.L., last Sunday for provi-ions, hav ing by » short allowance for forty days. She has been seventy-nine days in crossing the Atlantic. Her passengers numbered two in the cabin and eighteen in the steerage. She left Newport on Monday tor New York, and will be here to-day or to-morrow. Prorgsson Wines gives his second lecture on the Jewish laws and philosophy, at the Society Libra- ry thisevening. An interesting'subject and incom- petent hands Very Late from China—Highly Important Intelligence=Terrible Riots in Canton— Shocking Barbarities of the Chinese=Re- newal of Hostilities against Mngland. Ship Dellu, Captain Cole, arrived yesterday from Canton. We have received by her the Canton “*Press” and “Regester” to the 17th of December inclusive. She sailed on the 20th. The news is most important. It shows that the difficulties between the Chinese and English are far from being settled. War seems to be re-kindling in that quarter with great rapidity. This new but not unexpected phase in the aspect of affairs in the Celestial Empire began with a most horrible butchery of one or two hundred British sub- jects who had been unfortunately wrecked on the Chinese coast. It then assumed the shape of a ter- rible riot in Canton, which resulted in the total de- struction of the English factories, and the loss of se- veral lives. We give an account of this in which the revengeful, bitter feeling of the Chinese against the English, is seen throughout. It hadbecome un- safe for foreigners to reside in Canton, and the Eng- lish have now the worst part of their crusade against China to perforin. A renewal of the war appears in- evitable. The authorities at Canton disclaimed all partici- pation in the riots. They offered every apology and promised to pay for all damage done. This, however, appears merely to deceive the English.— Straws tell as well as first setting fire to the English flag staff. Trade was languid in Canton, although a good many chops of tea had been bought at rather high prices. The U.S. frigate Constellation, Com. Kearney, was at, Macao on the 17:h of December. There were no less'than eighteen American mer- chant ships in the Chinese waters on the 20th of De- cember, when the Delhi sailed. “ [From Canton Press, Dec. 17.] We last week laid betore our readers such par- ticulars of the riots at Canton on the 7th and 8th of this month as had then reached Macao. Our im- pression that this riot, or it may perhaps even be called insurrection, was not a momentry ebullition of feeling, nor the scaseiaetion of the quarrels be- tween the Lascars and Chinese, has become more strengthened by all we have heard, and we cannot but suspect that the project to destroy the English factory had been for sometime entertained ‘by a ay at Canton, and that its execution may perhaps ave been opera hurried on by circumstances. The fact that the flagstaft in front of the British hong was first set fire to, and of the mob being even anxious that the fire should not spread beyond the English factory, are proofs that the rage of the popu- lace was chi¢fly directed against the English or their property, and it is indeed a fortunate circumstance that the weather happened to beso calm and fine, for had there been any wind, no matter from what PEG doubt can be entertained but that the ire which has now destroyed only three hong: would have communicated tothe remaining ten ap to those of the hong-merchants, in which case the loss of property would have been enormous. For- tunarely, atthe time of this riot occurring, but few of the Factories,which were all more or less injured in May last year by the. poealies, were inhabited; the Creekhong was without inhabitants; only one house in the Dutch, and four in the English hong were occupied; nor was there, we are told, much property in the godowns formerly be- longing to the Company. The most sensible loss on this occasion has been that of a considerable quantity of specie, said eiseeisr to amount to about $350,000, which was plundered by the mob. It was said that summary capital punishment had been dealt upon some of the offenders, and their heads exposed as a warning in Hog-lane. It is, however, a coincidence that the number of heads, and of those ofthe mob found dead in front of the factories, isthe same, namely five, and the suspi- cion that the heads of the already dead were made to serve on this occasion seems not to be ill-tound- ed, since during the then temper of the populace, and the very slender authority the government seemed to possess, the latter would hardly have ven- tured on inflicting such maomary punishment. On the following morning, the H. C. steamer Proser- pine anchored in front of the Factories, and her opportune arrival (with Sir Hugh Gough on board) caused no small excitement, as no doubt the guilty Chinese fancied that_she would immediately open fire upon the town. The shopkeepers began to carry off their goods, and people tried to get as much as possible out of the steamer’s way. Inthe course of the morning Sir Hugh Gough had an interview with the authoritiesat Canton, at which these expressed their regret at what had happened, excused it with their want of power over the excited “people, and offered compensation for the damage done. A fast boat had on the day previous been despatched from Canton for Sir Henry Pottinger at Hongkong, but this, singular enough, was not allewed to pass down theriver bythe Chinese cruisers, and the man to whom the despatch had been entrusted, with an offer ot $40 for its safe delivery atHongkong, came back toCanton a day or two after, stating that the letter had been taken from him by the Mandarins. Up to the last accounts from Canton (the 13th) no commnni- cation, it was understood, had been received there from Hongkong, but according to our accounts from the latter place, the rumors that a strong force was immediately to proceed to Canton, are without foundation. Such events asthe late riot at ,Canton prove how very unsafe it now has become not only as a place of residence for foreigners, but as a depo- sit of commercial property, as the slightest pretext may, and will we doubt not, cause a repetition of such dangerous scenes, and they may very likely end still more destructively. If Canton is to remain a port for foreign commerce, it seems to be quite necessary that foreigners there should also have the means of defending themselves againet the people, and a fortand garrisou would become indispensable. The arrangements of the details of the treaty of ace has by this event become more complicated, if indeed ‘he Chinese are sincerely bent upon ac- complishing it. There can be no doubt that among the people much dissatistaction exists on account of the success of the British arias,and that kl of them ascribe the failure on their own side,and probably not unjustly,to the Peres ala d Ele! ale ‘of their officers. ‘e can hardly believe that after the severe lesson read to them, the high officers of State or the Im- perial government should be desirous of again plunging the country into war by nonfuifillment of the treaty; yet accounts lately received from Can- ton make it almost appear that the former pacific pro- fessions of the Peking government were as hollow as they were during the memorable exchange of notes be- tween the Imperial Commissioner Keshen and Capt. Elliot, and that, since so great a proportion of the force has left the north, the Court may again flatter itself that in a second trial of strength it may fare better than in the first. The circumstance whicl has caused our suspicion that the Chinese govern- ment does not intend with good fuith to fulfil the conditions of the treaty, is the report brought from Canton, that Elepoo, the Imperial Commissioner, hitherto daily expected to arrive for the arrange- ment of details, is said, when not many days jour- ney from Canton, to have received orders immedi- ately to retrace his steps. If this should prove true, it isvery probable that another campaign will be- come necessary, it going a great way to convince us that the Chinese are not nearly enough humbled to understand why such important concessions should be made to a foreign nation, upon which, to within the last few years, they have loeked with sovereign contempt. [From Canton Register, Dec. 17.] The mob at Canton continued still very mischiev- ous, and was threatening the factories; a large force of soldiers had, however, collected, and kept their immediate vicimty clear of the people. It was, however, said that the people and villagers from the surrounding ‘districts were marching up to Canton, so that we may next have to report a conflict be- tween them and the troops. The steamer Proser- pine arrived here from Canton last night, havin there been relieved by the Nemesis; the former left again with Sir Hugh Gough for hours after her arrival. [From the Canton Register, Dec. 13. After a night (Dec. 7) of much anxiety and ex- citement, Isend you a line tosay that we are all safe and the danger apparently over for the present. Be- fore this reaches you you will have heard that a row commenced at 9or 10 yesterday morning between some Lascars andChinese,which went on increasing through the day, until at night it reached a fearful crisis. We early sent notice te Howgqua, but his re- port, ifhe made any, was not heeded. The mob increased in numbers and audacity every hour, and by 2or 3, we could see by the plunder carried by, that Mr. Murrow’s factory had been forced. The la- dies (English) had already taken refuge at King- ough the afternoon, a feeble party of the city po- , Which came out to restore order, being beaten feeling began to show itself in the setting fire to the Britisa flig staff, and the concentration of the mob Hongkong afew qn 's. ‘Thisscene of plunder and violence went on the field. Early in the evening the anti-English randeh still stood firm, but suddenly volumes of smoke poured in from every crevice, and goon after the whole roof and architrave was burning furious- . The aqeaso all the while was crowded by Chi- nese who had early thrown down the company’s wall and forced sundry passages through the paling of the square. Alarms were from time to time com- municate d to this immense mass, and they at one moment fled in all directions, and then ewayed back again to their former position. Furious cries and shouts were every instant mingled with the crackling of the fire and the cresh of the falling Tuins. * « * * * The fire engines rent to check the flames were driven off, the mob declaring no one should in terfere to save the British hong, and when that was down they themselves would help to save the olhers.— This with the eastern factories was impossible ; and Mr. Heard and party, (four Americans and English- men, armed with 2 muskets end 2 pistols, with a little powder and shot!) after defending their entrance against the thieyes for some hours, were forced by the fire to escape by the back passage at about 11 o’clock. Happily they effected this in safety ; and soon after the flames running along the verandah consumed it, and now of those fine porches nothing remains standing but the lower arches and some bro- ken pillars. Of course the Creek hong shared the same fate. While the fire was still intens* there, smoke issuing from Mr. Fisher’s showed that that also had been doomed to destruction. Some new alarm was felt from this fresh outbreak, but happily the same causes prevented the fire from spreading westward. The assurances of the ring-leaders of the mob that they would fire no other factory were now corroborate oy the evident exertions going on along the outskirts of the crowd to check the thieving by des; iling the wretches of their plunder. It was on the whole a fearful night, the fire threaten- ing all of us, and the furious mob in full possession of the square making the removal of anything ime possible. Towards dawn there was a lull in the popular violence, and it was determined that the la- dies and a large escort should take Minqua’s boat, and cabal deen to Whampoa, which they accom- plished without molestation; the rest of us, alter au early breakfast, returned to our factories, which, we found quite as we leftthem. But again, asthe morning advanced, themob collecied, resumed full possession of the square, and renewed their work ot plunder. They had now evidently found entrance into some not empty treasuries. Ragamuflins were appearing in quick succession laden with dollars. -- his illgotten booty, was, however, seldom left in their quiet possession, every suspected fellow was soon surrounded, seized, and his dollars scattered in the scuffle to be scrambled for by. the by-standers; for hours the square was covered by knotted groups of this kind, struggling desperately for ashare in the plunder. By and by the police and hong coolies mingled in the affrays, for the purpose of spoiling and punishing the villains. Thus the morning wore away, and nointerference came from the govern- ment. No doubtthe governor passed an anxious night, ready to interfere, but dreading the power of the popular party. In the course of the morning, he learned the true state of the case; that the factories were not all burned, nor the foreigners all murder. ed, and that the portion of the mob which had the burning of the british hong, as‘its object wassatis- fied, and that he had only the thieves to contend with; he therefore ventured to interfere, and a strong body of soldiers at length appeared atabout noon, and cleared the square of the lawless fellows who a een more than 24 hours in possession of it. It was pleasant to sally forth again, and we went down to the seat of the conflict, where five dead bodies of Chinese, torn and bloody, showed that some at least had not escaped to run riot again. Thus ended this disgraceful affair for the present, for vast crowds are still hanging en the edges of the to- reign residences, and new efforts to fire and plunder may be apprehended. We are now putting our movables on board a chop, and shall go afloat until Sir Henry settles the account with the authorities. An express was sent to him yesterday, and we wait to see whether he will choose to explain away the difficulties of the rowdies, or challenge them to as much Bybt as thevare inclined for. It is clear that either the native or foreign officers must afford rotection, or we cannot return to the factories, he British flag staff was an object of much interest through the evening. It was fired at the base, the flame crept slowly up the staff; which still stood steadfast until the fire reached the cap; there the cross piece detained and increased the flames until the staff burnt through, and the topmast slowly top- pled down; a loud shout from the mob marked their triumph when it fell. Astothe commencement ot the row, the Lascar’s fight was merely the exciting occasion; it has been evident to us for some time that a growing discontent was abroad. I hear some have been foolish enough to ascribe the discontent to the arrival of the ladies; it is the working of the erdiar mind and passions as to the late war—hum- led at the north, but not convinced here, nor, per- hapsanywhere. Now, perhaps the real difficulties of the China question commence. The leaders of the patriot party lately applied to the governor for arms; he refused; they requested permission to arm themselves; he evaded this petition; they have now tried fire, and in time may command guns.” Proclamation to the Chinese, Sir Henry Pottinger, Bart., her Britannic Mojesty’s Plenipetentiary in China, aunounced in his proclamation under dete the 234 inat., that a number of her Britannic majesty’s subjects had been crnelly and causelessly put to death by the local officers on the Island of Formosa. The plenipotentiary has now further to announce the following clear details which he has obtained from afew of the shipwrecked men, who have been sent over to Amoy, to be released agreeably to the treaty. On board the ship Nerbudda, which was wrecked in September, 1841, there were altogether 274 souls; of these 29 were Europeans, 2 Manilla men, and 243 natives of In- a. All the Europeans, and three natives of In: accompanied by two Manilla men left the ship in the bo: nd thus exactly 2 These men rem: ship, which had drifted over the reef, and smooth water in Killung’bay ; for five di y and ed on rafts, without arms or weapons of any description. In landing some men were drowned in the surf, others were killed by plunderers who came down to strip them as they reached the shore, and the rest were seized and imprisoned in separate small parties, where they were lett in heavy irons, with hardly any clothing, and a very small allowance of food, from which privations many died after great auffering. Of the whole 240 who left the ship on the raits, only two men have been sent over to Amoy. O board the brig ‘ Ann,” which was wrecked on her passage from Chusan to Macao in the month of March, there were altogether 57 souls. Of these, 14 were natives of Europe or Amer Shinamen, 4 Portuguese or Ma- lays, and 34 nati’ India. The brig was driven by the violence of the wind and sea so high on shore, that when the tile ebbed she was leit dry, and the fifty seven men quitted her and got on board a Chi the hope of being enabled to put tu could not be effected, and they surrendered wit ing fired even one musket, or made the smallest resist- ance, to the Chinese troops that had come down te the spot. Pike the unfortunate menin the « Nerbudda,” those who were in the “Ann” were stripped stark naked, and dragged in that state to the capital of Formosa, when they were sepsrated and confined in small parties, which had little communication with each other, but were all treat- ed with extreme barbarity and almost starved. Out of the 57 soula who were cast away inthe “Ann,” 8 have just arrived at Amoy. Of these, 6 are natives of Enrope or America, one a native of India, and one China- man. A second C! e, and is said to have staid at Formosa of his own choice. It thus appears from the preceding details, that two hundred and thirty seven persons belonging to the “Ner- budda,” and forty-six belonging to the “Aun,” have either the officers of the Chinese government, jave perished through ill treatment and deen put to death on Formosa, or starvation. ‘These atrocious and appalling facts are not to be refuted or questioned, and, that all may judge of them, and con- trast the conduct of the officers of the British government (who set all their prisonors free), this proclamation is made in Chinese. Her Britannic Majesty's plenipoten- tiary trusts, however, that the Emperor will yet make the only atonement that’ remains, and thereby avert further eviis. Gon save tHE Queen. [From Canton Press, Dec. 10.) Our last advices fpom Canton are of Thursday night. At that time the fire had been completely subdued, nor had Linchong’s and the other Hong. merchant’s establishments suffered, and the fire had notspread westward beyond Hoglane, so that 10 of the 13 factories remain standing. The authorities were again in possession of the place and no farther violence forthe time was apprehended. We have not yet been able to learn whether any lives on our side have been lost inthis lamentable riot, although itis said, but this may be mere rumor, that two Eng- lishmen are missing. [From the Hongkong Gazette, 24h Nov.] Many of the troops who so cowardly fled before the barbarians at the battle of Chapco have been ar- rested, and, by imperial command, have been sen- tenced to transportation to the “cold country.”— All the officers who also fled have been summarily disgraced. The officers and troops on the other hand who fought bravely have all been rewarded with imperial favors. Recent freshets on the northern parts of the imperial province having caused great distress, His Majesty ordered high officers to pro- ceed to the said districtsand make accurate reports concerning the real state of the suflerers. In many instances these officers refused to report cases of distress unless they were feed by the suffering par- ties. His Majesty having got wind of this shameful collusion, had the offenders tried, disgraced and punished. ’ Such have been the alarm and dread in Che-keang on the comany’s factory.

Tanner, is, we learn, about to be removed from Philadelphia to New York.— Mr. Tanner’s list of standard maps and geographi- cal works is perhaps the most extensive in this coun- try, comprehending several general atlasses, maps of the world and quarte~s, both large and small ; State Maps of every description and Guide Books for every section of the world. The Depot of the establishment in charge of Mr. T. R. Tanner, is at No. 112 Broadway, where travellers and emigrants can obtain, not only such maps as they may need, but also verbal information Telative to the several reutes through the coun- try, modes of conveyance, &c. In addition to this important movement in litera- ture and science, we also learn that the same house have commenced the publication of their geopraphi- cal works on the cheap cash plan. They begun by issuing the first number, containing four splendid maps, with tables and details, at the low price of only 50 cents per copy. Such cheapness must en- sure their general circulation. The progress in cheap literature and science—and the concentration of the publishing trade in New York, are the most singular and extraordinary movements of the day. The publication of all the magazines and literature of Philadelphia and Boston seem to be rapidly con- centrating in New York. Where is it toend?

Curtery Bustvess —The attention of this class of merc'ants, both from the country, and of the city, is invited to the extensive and beautiful assortment of cutlery, for sale at 162 Division stfeet, by Mr. ‘Wm. Wild. Itisrepresented tobe of superior quali- ty. Mr. Wild’s establishment is quite a curiosity shop. In particular we notice the ‘ Norfolk Knife,” a sight of which is well worth a visit to the store. Itis, when opened, about a yard long—has a pearl handle, on one side of which are views of the store, of the City Hall, and of the American Eagle—and on the other side of the Capital at Washington, of the two new British Houses of Parliament, and of Newstead Abbey, fLord Byron’s seat. The knife has three blades, one pocket and two pens. On one side of the large blade is a view of Sanderson and Brothers’ Sheffield steel works, whose steel alone Mr. Wild uses—on the other side is one ot the most beautiful pieces of etching ever done; it is a view of the Battle of Bunker’s Hill. On one side of one of the pen blades is a beautiful view of Chatsworth (Duke of Devonshire’s) House, done in shaded etching by the only person in the world who can do that kind of work. There is various other writing, upon the knife, poetry, &c. In Mr. Wild’s shop are many curiosities—knives from one blade to twenty-eight—tcissors so small as to go down a pipe stem, &c. &c. We advise deal- ers to call and take a look before purchasing else- where. He conducts his business on the cheap cash plan. Unirep States Sure INpEPENDENCR.—dt appears that we were the only paper to publish that the yel- low fever had made its appearance on board the In- dependence, the flag ship of Com. Stewart. Letters received from her dated 15thult., five days later than that from which we copied, makes no mention of it, and some are led to believe, therefore, that our statement is incorrect. Will the gentleman who has the letter show it to us again? Mr. Dure’s Lecrnres.—It is positively stated that Mr. Duer will lecture this evening on “ Marine Insurance,” at Clinton Uall. We call on the gen- tlemen of the bar and the merchants to attend.

Treaty wit Mextco.—The most important item of news 1s of the arrival of Judge Robinson with overtures from Mexico. Judge It was among the prisoners captured under Gen.

The Judge communicated to the Galveston papers ine heads of the proposed accommodation, as fol- jowse— Gatvesrox, March 27, 1813.

Respectfully, Your obedient servant, JAMES W. ROBINSON. A writer in the Galveston Times of the 23d urges the right of Louisiana to the territory of Texas, and invites her to assert her sovereignty over it. Lieut. Bunner, of the Texan navy, according to the Times, is enlisting men to join Com. Moore, at theS.W. Pass, ; Flacco, the noted Lipan Chief, to whom Texas was chiefly indebted for the friendship of his tribe, has beentnurdered. He had returned to the Neueces to bring 1" horses left behind bythe late expedition to the Rio Grande. There are two conflicting state- ments relative to the perpetrators,and the manner of the murder; one that a Taxan from the Brazos com- mitted thedeed; the other that his body was found in the vicinity of six others (Cherokees) whom he most probubly killed in the combat which termina- ted with his tit We hope the latter account istrue as the former would be an incentive to his waver- ingtribe to beeome hostile to Texas—and as his murder by the hands of a Texan would inflict a deep stain on our escutcheon after his many valuable ser- vices. —Times. iG Texas anp Yucatan.—The Columbia Gazette has the following patagraph :— . “Amongst the Many subjects discussed in the last Congress, our relations with Yucatan did not pass unnoticed. One of the housesculled upon the Pre- sident for informations to the intercourse between the two gevernments, to which he replied—that he had no correspondence whatever with Yucatan— that it was a part of Mexico, and that he looked up- on all communication with its government as trea- sonable. We have not yet seen the message.” The Galveston Gazette says:—Gen. Thompson has asked the release of Messrs. Jones ot Gonzales and Maverick on the ground that they are both his personal friends, and that the latter is a relative, and as been promised that they shall accompany him on his visit to the U. S. in April. There is a pros- rece that Judge Hutchinson will be also released — n relation to the other San Antonio prisoners there isno certainty, but it is believed that the circum- stances under which they were taken will | be justly considered by Santa Anna, on his resumption of the Teins of Government O Com.

Ja. Post Mortem Examination.—The most conspi- cuous visiter that we have had lately consists of an enormous serpent from South America. Asa spe- cimen of its voracious powers, Welch and Mannine form us that it made but one mouthful of a young bullock, weighing 350 pounds, and all that they could perceive of the unfortunate victim was a bit of his tail sticking out. The serpent unfortunately died yesterday on board the vessel, and a post mor- tem examination will be held to-day upon the body atthe American Museum.
