Men never pave more hearty expression of their feelings than was done on this OCCASION, Mr. Usperwoop said that when he belonged to the N. E. corps, there was in it a number of persons who were termed the “wicked squad,” of which he was captain, he wished to know if there was not such @ equad yet among them? (Loud cries of “yes, yes,” and cheers ) Capt Gorpon said yes they were among them, and previous to leaving home they promised to stick by him, but the had seen less of them since the arrival in this city than any of the others. Where they had been he could not say, but he be- lieved they were just as wicked a squad as ever. The parties alluded to having come forward, they were each presented with @ neat piece of pink ribbon, on which were printed the letters **N. E G.” and pinned upon their jackets. A few other toasts were gave and responded to, when the two corps resumed their arms and marched down Broadway towards the Butery, the New England Guards headed by upwards ot thirty geatlemen for- merly belongingio the company, many of whom have the ribbon of the “wicked squad,” and among whom we recognized some of our most re spectable and inflaential citizens. They marched into the Castle Gardea; and, after passing a short lime there, they marched to the Battery, where the two companies after going through a varicty of manwuvres formed in line opposite to each other, Told.

It is certainly amusing to observe the outbursts of high-toned morality, on the part of the British organs, with respect to the iniquity of seizing upon foreign territories. It will certainly be hard work for France to establish her dominion permanently in the north of Africa. But there ie little doubt of its fiaal accomplishment. After taking their ports, tue French will drive the Moslem hosts to the mountains, and their ultimate surrender must be inevitable. To the influence which this war is destined to exercise on the progress and triumph: of christian civilization, we can at present make merely a passing ailusion. It is interesting, how- ever, to mark the manner in which the restless jealousy of England is manifested towards the pre- sent operations of her powerful neighbor. There is no knowing what disturbance this war in Africa may yet produce in Europe. ln England, the popular excitement relative to the disclosures connected with Mr. Mazzini’s let. ters and the conductof some of the Post Office officials, continues, and is operating with very con- siderable effect against the ministry. Those ever- lusting sources of discoutent—the poor-laws—were also the subject of a good deal of popular clamor. The difficulties which environ the ministry were by no means decreasing, and we do think that a change must soon take place. Sir Robert Peel with his tar-seeing sagacity, is aware of the strength of the popular elements of discontent, and knows to what they must one day lead. He would make concessions, if he dare, to the manufacturing in- terests, but the landed aristocracy have the rule over him, and hence his struggles and his peculiar difficulties, But nothing can avert the revolution which is slowly but surely approaching in Great Britain. The oppressors must be brought low, and the people will yet be free. The arguments in the case of O'Connell were progressing in the House of Lords. It is not likely that they will be closed until near the adjournment of the House for the session. O’Connell will be brought up on a writ of habeas corpus, and be dis- charged on his own securities, with the bail, per- haps, enlarged. The accouchement et her Majesty has not, it would appear, been announced with the usual degree of precision, for that auspicious event had not taken lace, although its oceurrence had been expected in the begiawing of July. However, the next steamer will, we suppose, bring us that news, with other intelligence of still greater interest to the sovereigns of the United States. white, with their fair countenances decked in smiles, and their briliiant eyes peg with ame mation. A great number of officers in uniform, members of different corps, were scattered about. Several of the consuls in uniform, with their wives and daughters were also present in honor of the strangers from Bostou. The amusement of the evening commenced with the performance of “My Little Adoped.”” p i Atthe end of the first piece in the theatre, the members of the City Guard repaired, with their ladies upon their arms, to the main walk, and ar- ranged themselves along on the right hand side.— The contrast of the ladies’ dresses with the scarlet uniforms wes extremely fine. The N. EB. G's, proceeded by the Brigade Band, were then escort- ed in by Capt McArdle and his officers, and a por- tion of the corps; and when they, reached the in- terior of the garden, a beantifu! piece of pyrotech- ny, bearing the word “Welcome,” was set off ‘The company then entered the theatre; after henr- ing a glee sung, which was composed in honor of the guests,and witnessing the performance of “John of Faris,” and a pas suel by Miss Partington, which was very much admired, and deservedly encored, they vacated the theatre. A magnificent piece of fireworks, the work ot Messrs. Edge & Co., was then exhibited, bearing on its centre the words “New England Guards,” and beneath them “N.Y. City Guards, 1844,” which had a_ most splendid eflect when fired. At the termination of this display, the companies then passed out of the gardens, and asufficient interval was allowed for dress, the dresssing rooms being at che quarters of each company, and at Mr. Niblo’s spacious house. Shortly after the hour of 12, there was a most nu merous and glittering array of gallant men and lovely women, upon the floor of the finely lighted saloon, all ready for the dance. Dodsworth’s band was in the orchestra. Never was there such a ga- laxy of beauty displayed in these gardens.— New York, Bresla; Staten Island, and the surrounding neighborhoods furnished their uota of beauty, wit, elegance and grace.— he company, including invited guests, nnmbered over two hundred gentlemen, and probably three hundred ladies, and each seemed to enter into the spirit of the oceasion, After two or three qua- rilles, a waltz and a Spanish dance, the company assembled sat down to a most elegant supper, or rather collation, made Ww of all the fruits and deli- cacies of the season. The tables were spread in the long walk, or promenade, and under the trees which fill the square adie lning: The sight, when all were seated, was truly splendid, and there was sufficient to fillthe miud with contemplation as well as the body with the good things of this life. After these had been enjoyed, Captain McArdle rose and said that speaking and drinking toasts formed no part of the plan of the occasion; but_he could not propose to leave the table without offer ing as a sentiment, ‘‘Weleome—a hearty welcome to our Boston friends.” This being duly honored, a very brief reply was made by one of the officers of the *N. &.G.” The health of General Cadwal- tader was then proposed, and allusion made, it terms of high approbation, to the part recently borne by that officer in quelling the riot in a sister city. Gen. Stryker’s health was next introduced, and he replied by toasting the ladies. A gentleman present responded to that sentiment. After which the gentlemen rose and escorted the Ladies once more to the Saloon, where dancing was resumed, and kept up until a late hour—or rather an eatly— of the morning. i Take it all together, and it must be admitted to have been the most beautifully arranged,gand most successfully carried out, affair of the kind our city has ever known—the cost of this evening’s entet- tainment alone being upwards ot $1000. The committee of management certainly de- serve every credit for the manner they have carried outtheir arrangements; the gallantry of our City cuards must now stand in the first ranks by their thoughtfulness of the ladies, in affording thema share of the amusements and pleasure going for- ward, anexample we have no doubt but will be followed by othergallant cores on future occasions About 10 0’clock yesterday morning the two com- panies mustered at their respective quarters, and marched from thence to the Park, where his Honor the Mayor came aud witnessed the New England Guards go through their exercise, and after march- ing through their ranks uncovered, the bands play- ing “Hail Columbia,” the men presenting arms, and saluting the different officer, withdrew Shortly afterwards the two companies marched down Broadway to the City Hotel, where a most splendid cold collation was waiting them. The New England Guards marched into the house, and stacked arms in the anti-room adjoining the gen tleman’s saloon; the N_Y.C. G. pited arms outside and joined their guests in doing honor to the hoepi- tality of Mr. Jennings After this had been parta- ken of in such a manner as soldiers know so well how to do after some four or five hour's march andjgood drill, the wine cup was pnt in ac- tive operation, and a mutual intercharge of good feeling towards each other expressed. Here the two companies were joined by a number of gentle- men now resident in thiseity, who formerly be- longed to the New Engle d Guard; and were re- ceived by their successors in arms in the most en- thusiastic manner, Capt Sutrivan, late of the New England Guard, ity ae health of Capt. McArdle, of the Capt. McArvig returned thanks in a brief but very appropriate address. He said himself and his’ companions in arms had only one object in view in inviting the N. E. G, that was to entertain them as brothers and fnends, and hoped that they should not only do it to them but to al! suards who might visit this city.—(Cheers.) I was only a year ago when his company numbered bur 40, it was then thought that its sun was set,but now it numbered upwards of 80, and it was in its meridian, Since the arrival of their honored guests, he had only slept four hours out of every 24, and he believed he hud had more sleep than many of his comrades, so anxious were they to do ul honor to the N. E.G. After a few compliment: to that company, the gailant captain concluded his remurks by proposing a toast. The Guards—we strike for faw.’”” Capt. Suuuivan returned thanks on behalt of the N.E. G. and nis address was received with nine times nine cheers. Capt. Gorpon of the New England Guards, nex) returned thanks tor the courteous and gallant re- ception he and his comrades had met with. 1 was owing to them that they had been introduced to that veuerable and respected chief officer of the city of Brooklyn, Mayor Sprague. In their hearts they felt the affection of brothers for the Guards of N. Y. and Brooklyn, and begged to propose the toast of * The Cs Guards of Brooklyn.” Drank with three times three cheers. Mr. Uxperwoon in reply to it proposed “ The New England Guards everywhere.” Capt, Suntivan said there was one little matter he was desirous of bringing before the compan: present. Some thirty years since, when the N. E G. were first formed. he had in his service a Daniel Simpson. At his (Captain Sullivan’s) solicitation, that individual joined the corpsas drummer, and he was proud to say had remained in it, and was pre- sent at that moment. (Cheers.)'In token of remem- brance of his long and faithful services.he had taken upon himself to, present him with a camp cup that he could carry with him in all his marching through life. Here Capt. Sullivan called Simpson forward, and presented him with the cup, It is a neat silver tankard, which will contain about half a pint, on whch was the following inscription—*From an old officer of the New England Guard to Daniel Simpson, asa memorial for his long and faithful services. New York, Aug. 2, 1844." Simpson endeavored to express his thanks, but his feelings were so overcome that he could not give utterance to his words. Mr. Annort, of the New England Guard, was Quereitroa Bark is in Limited request ; first Philadel- phia ia worth 9s 6d to 95 94.

Srark or Trape—Manxcurster, July 16—Business continues in a satisfactory state in this market, ‘The demand for sarn is very good, and, for some descriptions, especially of water twist, a slight advance has been ob tained. Goods are also in fair demand ; and, with the e. eepinn of 40-inch shirtings (which, though rather bet than last week, ave stil! somewhat depressed), sell readily at very firm prices It is satisfactory, however, to ob ve that there is an entire absence of speculative feel ing in the market, Spinners aud manufacturers are ready scllers at the market prices, and generally accept orders for future delivery” Rocnpare Franwet Manner, July 15.—We have had avery good demand for flannels today, but very little change in the prices. Manufacturers complain that they cannot get an advance upon their prices in proportion to the aivance upon the raw material Wool has been much inquired after ; and the prices are slowly but gradually advancing. Lervs.—In goods of almost every description there is not quite ro much doing, arising principally from the re duced of the stocks in the cloth halis, consequent upon the brisk markets of the last week or two, and the thta supply of goods brought to the hails, in consequence of many of the manufacturers being engaged in dslivering toorder. Prices of low qualities are ashade higher, but flue goods remain steady in price. The demand for shawls and fincy cloakings is on the increase, and scarcely any stock on hand, ‘The foreign houses con tinue busy, bat the last week being the lair week, the houses connected with the home tra le were, as is usual, ratuer slack but on the whole there is a fair amount«f basiness doing in the warebouses. Barwevey.—The trade of Barnsley has been slacker than it has been from the commencement of the year, midsummer being the principal period of the year for stocktaking at the leading firms in the town. Still it ix confitently asserted that summer and autumn trade is pigtdind KS brisker than at che same period tor several years back. Brapr.

The stock on hand in this market new ¢ ceeds one million of bales—atact which, combined with the large stock on hand inthe U 8., must prevent prices from rising; they may oscillate occasionally, according tothe demand, but any permanent improvement, as the season aivances, can hardly be looked for, Indeed, there is at present every reason to conclude that, at the end of the present year, the stock on hand will exceed the stock an it stood at the beginning of the year. Moreover, there is a growing impresvion that the immense breadth of land io various parts of the Sounthern States, devoted to the Growth of the staple, will always secure an averaye crop of two millions of bales, irrespective of any failures or casualties which may happen to it in particular loculit This. wich the increasing imports from our possessions in ame have anineritane tendency to cheapen the , July 19. true miliary style a most splendid color. Captain Sutuivan then came in front of the two companies, aad after a few latdatory remarks, and contrasting the military of this country with thar of other countries gaid, the one was only to support hereditary power while the other was to support law and order; and to suppor: the latter he wa~ assured that the two comp. nies then present would be ever foremost. The gentieman then alluded to disturbances that had recently taken place, and re commended the military to apply to their different State governments for laws to protect them in the suppression of riots, seeing they could get no such protection from Congress, the degraded cockpit of party strife and personal interest, and not allow themselves to be pelted with brick-bats, and shot down Jike mad dogs, without autho- rity to prevent or resist it. The State Legislature had the power of making a law to prevent such oc. currences as had recently disgraced the land, and no doubt, if properly persevered in, they would soon frame such laws as would place the power in alleuch cases in the hands of the military, who would very quickly suppress all such disturbances. On the present occasion, he was deputed to pre- sent tothe New England Guards something which would remind thein in time to come of their visit to New York; it was that of the color then before them, and hoped that they would ever nobly unfurl it, and march boldly forward whenever the two States, whose arms it bore, or their country re- quired them, so to do. (Greatcheering.) The color wasthen unturied—it waa most splen- did article, painted in first rate style, by Mr. Cuffer- ty, of blue silk, with a massive silver fringe—on one side it had the arms ct New York, with the motto “Excelsior” beneath; en the other the arms of Massachusetts, with the motto above as “Ense Petit Placidem,” aud beneath ‘Sub Libertate Qui- etem.”? The pole was silver mounted with a mas- sive silver pike head. On one of the plates was inscribed, ‘ Presented to the New England Guards oa the oceasion of their first visit to New York, July 31, 1844, by the ex-members of that corps now resident in that city.” : Capt. Gorpon having received the color said, he felt deeply gratified to receive from the past mem- bers of the N. E. G.’s the splendid offering they had just made. It was what they did not expect but should be ever held as a proud memorial of their esteem and friendship, and be unfurled in t! maiatenunce of law and order, The same spirit still prevailed in the corps as did in 1812, and the were as ready to come forward in their country’s cause. It was the epirit that was handed down to them by their fathers from Bunker Hill. He pledged himself and his comrades to be ever ready to assist their brothers in arms in maintaining the law either in this or any other State. The gen- tleman concluded a most eloqient address, by say- ing they shoald display the banner with pride as they marched through their native city, and io preserving the Union until death. (Loud and long continued cheering.) ‘The two companies then marched along Green- wich street, up Robinson street, through Park Place, down Broadway to Pier No. 1 North River, where, after the usual military salutes, the N. E G.3 embarked, shortly afier five o’clock, on board the Cleopatra for home. While on board, Captain Olney and a part of the Brooklyn City Guard ar- rived, as a deputa ion from that carps, to bid therm tarewell. Captain Olney drew his men in a line and briefly addressed the commander of the N. E. corps, who responded to the address, and the ves- se] moved off amid the cheers of each party. As she rounved the Battery, a salute was fired by the New York City Guard from the field-piece, which was answered by the loud cheers of those on board. The officers in command of the Boston company were ere Gordon, Lieut. Bradlee ; Win. Harris, eee aster; 3. Abbott Lawrence, Adjutant; nomas M. Pomeroy, Commissary; C. Austin Cooledge, Paymaster; Wm. A. Briggs, M D., Sur- geon; Henry Lovg, Jr., Camp Luspector ; FA. Bacon, Commissary’s Assistant. Thus endea one of the most pleasing exchanges of courtesy that has ever taken place in this city, and no doubt will be remembered with pleasure by all parties concerned. Waar Next %—Quite fatigued with abusing Mr. Polk’s grandfather, the Whig partygpress are now very busy grubbing out old bills of expendiivre for the furniture of the House of Representatives du- ring Mr. Polk’sSpeakership, in order to convicthim of extravagance! It is certainly very amusing to hear the rotten, broken down, whig cod-fish aris- tocracy of Wallstreet talk aboutrepublican simpli- city, and the enormity of purchasing a few yards of satin damask and four pair of crimson silk tae- sels, for the chair of the Speaker of the House And what hasall this to do with Mr. Polk? The Commercial, indeed, udmits that perhaps it isnot fair to tax him with the extravagance, but adds that somebody did it, and therefore Mr. Polk has as good aright to be abused as any other person This is something like the Courier’s argument to prove Mr. Polk aduellist. Out upen such misera- ble, contemptible, petty party malignity. Granp Procession or THE Recnaprres.—This highly respectable body made a grand procession through the principal streets of the city yesterday, and in the evening mustered in great numbers in Tompkins’ Square, where they were addressed by several individuals, Among the company present was His Honor, the Mayor,and several other mem- bers of the Corporation, a number of Clergymen of variousdenominations, and a great many of the most respectable citizens. It was a most magnifi- cent display, and must tend to good. Tue Froovs 1n tHe Wesr.—Who of our New York merchant princes intends to take the Jead in the noble work of rendering assistance to the sut- ferers by the late Mississippi floods? The destruc- tion ot property has been immense—incalculable— and the jndividual instances of heart-rending sut- fering and distress are innumerable. This har been one of the greatest calamities that have ever visited any portion of the Union. The losses by the great fire in New York, immense as they were, cannot be compared with those sustained in the west by these terrible floods. Who will move in the matter?) The west is calling upon us for aid Willits cry be disregarded? We are sure it will not—it cannot. Well, then, who will move? Let some one take the lead at once. Pactxc Matcu Over Tur Beacon Course, Ho- voxEN, YESTERDAY.—A match came off yesterday over this course between Fairy Queen, drove by Wm. Wheelan, and an unkaewn sorrel horse, for $200. The mare went in a light wagon, and the horse in a sulky which was driven by a stranger. About five o’clock, the animals made their appear- ance. Unknown was much admired, but the Pairy wes most appreciated in the betting, her qualities being better known. ‘They went torth in good style, but ere they reached the half mile it was evident that they were no match, and that the concern was like the handle of a jug—all on one side, From thence, the stanger kept increas ing his distance between himself and his rival, so much so thut at the top of the straight course there was every appearance of a distance, and the result was such, for Unknown reached the judge’s stand in 2 minutes 24 seconds shutting the Fairy com- pletely out, and taking the knowivg ones in te a considerable exient. The winning horse is of con- siderable power, and will prove a formidable rival to some of the cracks of the day if he is brought forward. # up to the 16:h ultimo, infused more spirit our Cotton market and caused prices to advance 1 fr; the demand has, however, slackened, and the amendment has been lost—towards the close of this day there was more appearance of briskness, owi fhe want of supplies in the iuterier, and the day’ comprises about 1 800 bales, The rates on the whole, are somewhat lower within the last fortnight.

(From our Special Reporter } Painceton, Thursday Evening. On arriving at Princeton, on Thursday morning, by the down train from Philadelphia, the signs of preparation for the military spectacle there to come off, were discernible almost everywhere. A good deal was expected, and the concentration of the militia forces of New Jersey on the site of the old battle ground called up reminiscences which offered prolific topics of conversation for days pre- vious, throughout the adjacent districts. Along with a great many others, the Duquesne Guards, of Pittsburg, who had been on a visit to their friends at Philadelphia, arrived per railroad. Some apprehension existed that the weather might prove unfavorable. Heavy electric clouds slowly ascended from the south-western horizon, and lent a dingy hueto the landscape all round. On the day previous an enormous quantity of rain had fallen, but had not at all exhausted the supply, which hovered in the atmosphere with quite a suf- ficiency of gravity in its appearance to be threaten- ing, although a little lesa than it required to make it subject to the attraction of gravitation. From 10 o'clock, the military corps began to drop in one after another. Some had remained in the Encampment from the day before — In passin through the town, the Infantry companies halte in most cases, which is not to be wondered at, considering the close and sultry state of the wea- ther and the reputation of one or two compounders of juleps, slings and cobblers, in that place. More- over, itis well known that in the dog days, a ma- lady called hydrophobia alias a hatred of water, is more prevalent than during the rest of the year; when this then is borne in mind as well as the old saying, that soldiers must drink, it is fair to infer that something as a substitute for water must be found; ergo, the aforesaid soldiers must stop in Princeton. [t was gratifying to see with what re- novated spirits and improved marching order they fell in after the above spoken of fluids had fallen into them. Captain Cragie’s company, ‘the High- land Guard” ot this city, footed it lightly along, to the wild but inspiring pibroch of the Scotch pipes ; the Highland Costume picturesque and beautiful as it always is. s When we had enjoyed the novelty of the differ- entarrivals, and the motly aspect of the stirring concourse of young and old that were in like man ner employed, a visit to the encampment was thought upon; and with the more despatch per- tormed, as it was evident that when the contents of the town took the road leading thereto, it would be a matter of noslight hazard to get through safely, an undertaking requiring considerable mili- tary manceuvering, civil (or perhaps uncivil) engi- neering, aod a due portion of perseverance. As it was, there were numbers of passengers for the same destination. The site chosen for the en- campment was about a mile from the town, in the outer verge of a wood of tall trees, The brush- wood had fallen before the exes of the pioneers; the rain of the previous day had disappeared in in- aumerable miniature rivulets, leaving sufficient of moistness to ascend in fragrant vapor before the rays of the sun—and here and there they peered through the overhanging foliage. The timber grew wide enough apart to allow of the tents, to the amount of no less than ninety, being distributed in long parallel rows between the trees. Ata respectful distance from these, groups of another species of erections were spread abroad. Emporiums of oysters, of fruit, castles of confec- tionary, fabrics of “fixins”—and a due host of bi nevolent dispensers of those commodities occupied a position on the field from an early hour in the morning. ‘The number of vehicles were enormous. It would have been worth the trouble to count them precisely, and accordingly tried it three seve- ral times, and as often gave it up when we got to between four and five hundred. It was, altogether, a very odd looking scene, and worth a journey to witness a good deal further than Princeton. As to the military part of the day’s proceedings, we have not as much to say in praise as we calcu- lated upon. To the uncertainty of the weather, doubtless, is to be attributed the great curtailment in the force expected. When the “military of New ood deal; and when only about two hundred and sixty mea —and hat including Generals and Corporals—and all other rals, musicians, staff and all—there was some cTagppg uninien This, together with the long interval of about 4 hours between their arriving and defiling trom the wood, made the pleasure rather less racy, and the exhilations less piquant than it would have beea in the absence of those circumstances. The forces on the ground, and under the_com- mand of Gen. Godwin, consisted of the Jersey State Artillery ;_ the Thauchan Gnards, of Pitts- burg; Princeton Blues; the Cranberry Grenadiers ; the Trenton Blues; the Highland Guards; the Flemington Dragoons, the Newark do; Prince- ton do—in all making about 260. iF On the ground we perceived Gen. Godwin and staff; Gen. Storms and do; Gen. Striker; Gen. Cadwallader, and Col. Tompkins, &c. A great deal of formal preparation was gone through, but asfar as we saw upto 6 o’clock, nothing followed worthy of noticing. Orderlies, indeed, rede about the four acre field and left plenty of room to see, to see—what? Why, in the first place, there were 260 men, be the sae more or less, arsembled “ Oathe smooth shaven grass by the side of a wood,” there was marching around that field twice; first in slow, and secondly in quick time; moreover, the said 260 men (more or less) walked across said field, and halted; formed line, presented, ordered, shouldered, carried, sloped, and recover- ed arms, and finally stood at ease; but to our great regret, upto the eventide hour of six, the smell of powder had not been burned, not even to salute the old colors that were premant at the ‘real thing” on the self same ground in days gone past. There it stood; it bore the brunt et battle, and the slew de- cay of time; it wore its scars well, and was the real type of the Spartan chivalry of the men of past ays, who -bore it, who are now gone down to de- cay, whence the old staudard will soon follow. Another feature ia the military proceedings of the day was a great lack of music. Perhaps we were a litile fastidious, after hearing the best spe- cimens of Boston and oar own good city lately ; but be that as it may, there was nothing worth lis- tening to, in the shape of sound, that blessed day. except the discharge uf the cork from a bottle ol ginger pop, hard cider, or soda water. On returning to the town, we found that already the mass had begun to disperse. All those to whom we spoke on the subject, appeared disappointed at the paucity of the numbers of the military, as well asthe poverty of resource in evolution they dis- played on the ground. To comfort themselves for all this was their studious pursuit ; and according- ly a mighty rush was perpetrated to the bar-rooms, whose keepers, although reinforced with a strong poese of aids, stood bewildered at the contempla- tion of the furor for beverages of all kinds. Up to twelve o'clock the drinking and guzzling, the li- quoring and frat, kept incessantly going. We got sick to look at it—canght a pain in the head with the noise—slept a trifle, and awoke repeating the ‘Soldier’s Dream,” by Campbell—fancied we were one—‘‘ swore a prayer or two aud slept again.” Having thus brought the narrative to a quiet and comely conclusion, it appeareth unto us good to let it rest there, with the consent of all par- ties interested. From Mexico —There were two arrivals yester- dey from Mexico—the Atrevida, from Vera Cruz, and Equity, from Matamoras, By the latter arrival we learn that it was very sickly at Matamoras--the malady being a high billious fever. Don Emile Mannaton, one of the principal merchants, died on the 9th instant. The captain and crew are nearly if not quite all down with the fever, and we learn that on arriving here they were unablu to work the vessel. A despatca arrived just as the Equity left Matamoras, proclaiming the armistice be- tween Mexico and Texas to be atanend. We could not learn that any intelligence of interest was brougut by the Atrev: . O. Fuly 26.

Inklings of the Free and Eusy at Prscataway— Jottings in “regard of” Chancellor Bibb— Scratchings about Education, Sweat, §¢.— Etch- ings lately adopted by the District Banks, §c. Gen, Bennett— The meeting down at Piscataway (what a beat tiful name for a small town,) yesterday was deci- dedly rich. They had a barbecue. They had strong speakers on both sides. Messrs. Hoban, of this city, Payne, of Alabama, Seely, of Virginia, for the Democrats, and Mvsers, Pratt, (Whig candidate of Maryland for Governor,) Causin, of Maryland, and Willis Green, of Kentucky, for the Coons, A large number of gentlemen from the district at tended. Mr. Pratt closed his speech by a preposi- tion to bet a treat of an oyster eupperall round that Charles county (the county below,) would not give 1,500 majority for Carroll! Messrs. Hoban and Payne spoke most ably in illustration of the invi- dious operations of the Tariff Here Willis Green spoke with his coat off—he only seemed to want the hint to have off his shirt. Mr. Green is good at chewing old cavendish, and telling a yarn, but he’s no great shakes of a speaker. While Mr. Green was speaking,a Mr. Ward ot Prince George’s ealled Mr. Bradiey of thiscity (a greatman among ug,) to account for having on a former occasion at Grimes’ denounced the Polk family because the father of James K. was, as he had alleged, a to- ry. Mr. Ward desired tie preof. Mr. Bradley dealared that he was not particular about rm sucing it just then, ‘ Hellow !” cried out Mr. Green, you man with the white hat,” addrassing himself to’ Mr. Ward, ‘just hold on till ’m through, neighbor, if you please.” Ward persisted that Bradley had told a lie, and that he conld prove it. Bradley said that Ward wasa liar. Ward hawled off his coat and was about to walk into the dio- phragm ot the President of the Washington Cla Club, when the friends of both parties interposed, and order was restored. Mr. Pratt, the whig candi- date for Governor, foamed at the mouth while he joke, as if affected with a paroxysm of the by- rophobia. Mr, Bradley, while Mr. Payne was s)eaking, exhibited various samples of calicoesand the prices of them under several tariff lawa = Mr. Queen (an officer of the H. R.) desired Mr, Beadley, for the sake of fair play, to haul down his dry goods, while Mr. Payne held’ the stand. Mr. Bradley acceded, and hauled down his illus- trations Alternately during the speaking, cheers were given for Polk and for Clay, for Carroll and for Pratt, and at the close of Mr. Pratt’s epeech a coon song was a About 800 voters were pre- sent, a large gathering for the sparsely settled neighborhood of Piscataway. Parties about Fay ly divided. It was a perfectly free and easy atlair. Recantations on both sides. When our triends left, the last scene, in the exhibitioa of which they were cognizant, was a fight between two coons, each grappling at the other’s eyes, and both maul- ing away as if the issue of the election depended upon the fight. There is a moral in every thinj and the moral we deduce from the proceedings aforesaid is, that this is incontestibly ‘* a great country.” The venerable Judge Bibb, now Secretary of the Treasury, is pursuing such a system of retrench- ment and retorm in his depsrtment, as cannot fail to secure the good opinion of the next pecpiene should Mr. Polk be the man, of whieh he is very sanguine. Not loag since he received a letter from the Executive Tyler Committee of Baltimore, under cover of the collector, requesting the remo- val of three men in said collecter’s office, and the anpeintment of three others, named in their bs Tne Judge wrote back tha! he could find ich committee authorized under the Coastitution, as the ‘Tyler Executive Committee of Baltimore, and to recognize their mandate’ would be a submission on his part to an unconstitutional ‘“ usurping crowd.” He brought on a son of his intending to give him a place when a vacancy should arise. Mr. Morris, a relative of Secretary Spencer, hol ing a confidential clerkship in the department, thereupon, sensible of the delicacy of his position, though sufe enough no doubt, resigned; and the son of the old judge has, therefore, fallen heir to a berth of $1600 a year. Judge Bibb owes a debt of several thousands to the treasury, as you know. His purcome ig to pay it. With this view he has lett his family in Kentucky, and lives very econo- mically.

EX&CUTION OF THE MUTINEERS OF THE SALADIN.— The Halitax Herald of Wednesday has the foliow- ing account of the execution of the mutineers of the barque Saladin, which took place in that city on Tuesday last. During the previous night, or in the very earliest part of the following morning, a gallows was erected on the crowa of the hil! on the Seuth Common, to the west of the Catholic Ce- metery. The crowd began to collect around the spot at an early hour, and when we arrived (about half-past nine,) there could not have been short of 2000 persons present. A detachment of the troops arrived on the ground shortly after, and formed a circle around the gallows, enclosing an area of about 150 feet in diameter. The prisoners arrived about ten o’clock in_two coaches. The first con- tained Jones and Hazelon, accompanied by the Rev_ Messrs. O’Brien, Quinoan and Connolly ; and Johnston and Anderson, accompanied by the Rev. Mr. Cogswell, came in the second. All of them ascended the scaffold with much firmness, and their whole behavior was decent and becom- ing ; such as might be expected from men in their awful circumstances, and who, at the same time they were impressed with the solemnity of the oc- casion, were not afraid to die. After ascending the scaffold, they remained en- gaged in devotion with their respective clergymen about halt an hour. The ropes were then adjusted round their necks, and presented a picture indeed pitiable to look upon. We could not but contrast it with the scene that offered itself to their minds, haply when they left Valparaiso. Then they were there own free agents, happy in conscions inno- cence, or at least without the weight of their late crimes to press upon their minds, and humble them | te the dust—ana each one looking forward to the tumejwhen he would again get a sight of the land of his childhood, and greet some loved friends whom he might hope to meet there. Now what were they? condemned and convicted telons— standing under the gallows—their hands pinioned— the rope round their necks—and the moment ar- rived to launch them into eternity! How sadly altered was their state~and what was the cause ? We ail know it; but each and all of us should en- deavor to make it available, and not allow its moral lesson to be lost. i ‘The prisoners shook hands with each other, and with much piety took leave of their clergymen, and betore their caps were drawn down which was to shut out the light of the sun, and the Jight of this glorious creation from their eyes, Jones, the wood- en-legged man, stepped a pace forward, and ad- dressing the crowd, said—*Good-bye, fellow coun- trymen; 1am brought to this by my bad conduct, and I deserve my fate. I hope you will all take warning by me, I aman Irishman, and come from the County ot Clare. Good-bye, my countrymen.” These were the few words he uttered as hear as we could catchthem. None of the other prisoners spoke a word after they ascended the scatlold, ex- cept what they said in a low voice to their clergy- men, The caps were then drawn over their faces, and immediately after, the drop fell. It would ap- pear that the suddenness of the fall almost imnedi- ately destroyed their existeace, for they exhibited bat little signe of suffering ; and in @ very short time their souls were in eternit, PIMPLES, SORES AND ERUPTIONS UPON THE FACE.—There is nothing which disfiguves a per- son so much as bad breakings upon the face, sallowness, &o., yet hundreds suffer them to remain when ono bottle of Comstock’s Sarsaparilla would entirely remove them, rendering the face smooth, and giving to the countenance a blooming and youthful appearance This superior Ex- tract has, thus far, met with unexamplec success in all dieeases arising trom impurities of the blood, merouria) affections, &6, Its effects are certain and speedy.
