To tue Epiror or tug Heratp: — Sin :—A very violent attack having been made upon me by M.M Noah in his last Messenger, which is in reality an attempt to censure Governor Van Ness for an act of the most disinterested kind ness to a humble citizen. I shall feel greatl obliged by an opportunity of repelling it throug! Joar iateentiol journal: hight bh . Without my knowledge, some hi respectable friends had interested themselves to obtain for me an inspectership in the customs. It was offered to me without the least reference to politics, as an act of kindness on behalf of the American people, toan exile who had suffered much in defence of principles dear to every true American. I accept- ed the pe meena eae oe a letter of introduc. tion to the collector, Mr. Curtis, with an official copy of che vote the Institute had just passed in the City Hall—was accompanied by one ot the Direc- tors—and Mr. Curtis received me very kindly, as- suring me that he would at once send on the ap- pointment to Mr, Spencer, Secretary of the Trea- sury. Instead of doing this, he wrote to Washin; ton for permission tu withdraw his offer to appoint me. This was refused. He showed me the letter of retusal. Then he appointed me. His letter is a rare curiosity. Mr. ereaner a reply is net less so. Some unfaithful officer in Judge Bibb’s de- partment has sent extracts to the Express, which the Commercial and Herald have copied. Mr. Cur- Us wrote to his friend, Mr. Spencer, begging him to veto the appointment as he couldn’t back out, Mr. Spencer obliged his friend, the Collector, by declaring that although an American citizen, I was a British outlaw, and had been Ceti, Empey aicle nae Poway some 8:x years before. He shall never hold an office under the American govern- ment, if I can help it, said the learned J.C. Spen- cer; unless, of course, Queen Victoria were to take him into favor again. That would alter the case. (f all the descendants of American outlaws from British justice, now inthis Union, were numbered, I presume they would be found to be a majority of the nation. hat was the venerable Doctor Ma- cheven, whom Messrs, Seward, Weed and Spen- cer took pride in placing in office here, in {839 ? A British outlaw Colonel David Gibson ot ‘lo- ronto, for whom, as an outlaw, with me in the Canada outbreak, $2,000 was offered by the wrong- headed Canadian Governor of that day, was up- held in office as a surveyor several years on the Ene Canal, by Mr. Spencer and his friends, at $1095 a year. The venerable Thomas Trevor, for whom one thousand guineas were offered by the Trish government in 1798, and who succeeded Lord Edward Fitzgerald as treasurer of the United Irish- men, was he not made an Inspector of Customs here by the express orders of General Jackson, and is not the noble old outlaw in office with usstill t {n the hour ot danger, in weap pada was the Attorney General of New York? Thomas Addis Emmet, a persecuted British outlaw of 98. When Lafay- eite escaped from ‘French justice,” during the revolutionary days of Robespierre, the outlaw was placed in an Austrian dungeon. Would such have been hisfatehere? Even Mr. Secretary Spencer’s brother, when caught in arms in Canada in the last outbreak, was allowed by Sir George Arthur to re- turn home unharmed, while I had close confine- ment here for a twelvemonth, to please, as Mr. Noah informs us, a friendly power. One of the most eminent and distinguished amon, the statesmen of this great republic, to whom sent an account of the usage I had met with from Messrs, Curtis and Spencer, sent me the following reply in a letter dated the 6th in ‘I do not knuw Mr. Van Ness, but what he has done fur you raises him very high in my estima- tion; the higher in consequence of the shameful treatment you received trom others, When you became a citizen you stood upon an equal foeting as to appointments with any ether citizen; and the fact that despots had outlawed you, instead of be- ing an objection, ought to have given you a claim to favor. The objection made to you on account of an alleged politicel offence in Canada, wag an in- sult to the memory «of Hancock, Adams, and every other British subject upon whose heads a price had been set in 1775--6. Such men were rescued from agibbet mainly by foreign aid; and yet because you and other imuators of them failed, (because ou had no such aid,) it seems you are to be out- jawed ere also! If you are criminal for daring to do, unsuccessfully, in Canada, what Hancock and others did in the thirteen colonies, successfully, the iatter were criminal: but if they successful de- serve honor and gratitude, you unsuccessful have at least as fair a claim to sympathy. They risked, but lost nothing. You risked, and lost every jodie} If they triumphed, thanks in part to foreigners. lf you failed, the fault was not yours. “T blush as [think of what I must call a pro- scription of you; especially when I see the way in which so many generous Englishmen treat the exiled Poles. They open their doors and purses to them, for the very reason that you are repelled —because they failed to release their country from an odious bondage. When I think of all this, | am delighted that there is one man, Mr. Van Ness, who has the courage and generosity to do what is right and humane. As to Mr. Spencer’s conduct, Tam not at all surprised at it, but I confess Mr Bibb’s does surprise me. The men of Kentucky, whom Ihave met with, have almost always deserv- ed my admiration They are frank andopen heart- ed. 1 am sorry Mr. Bibb has put on Mr. Spencer's Meneene and cannot but think he did so by mis- take.’ Col Johnson, of Kentucy, expressed himself in language equally favorable in 1840—and there are very many of the noblest of America’s sons, who have writt-n to me in language the very opposite of the illiberal Spencer and crooked Curtis, _As to Judge Bibb, no_blame can be attached to him. Governor Nan Ness, when he heard of Messrs. Curtis and Spencer’s correspondence, as- sumed the responsibility of my appointment, and Noah, who, with his friends the Phillipses and others, have had, as some think, a larger share of Custom House petianene than has been beneficial to the country, having uscertained that fact, slan- ders me, that blame may attach to the government and to the collector, for an appointment less valu- able than'that which I held in the City Hall, and from which I have not yet derived one dollar. Mr. Noah, knowing that it was false, asserts, that “through his (Mackenzie’s) counsel and ear- nest solicitation, several brave Americans were led into an ambush, were taken and hanged—and a number of ourffellew citizens were tried, con- demned, and are now at work with convicts at Van Dieman’s Land.” He goes on to speak of “our poor, betrayed countrymen, betrayed by him,” and insinuates that] was cpnnected with ae events that led tothe death of Van Shoultz and others. I arrived in New York in February, 1888, and publicly stated through the press, that any border attempts to liberate Canada would be madness— the time had gone by. In June, the Short Hills affair took pare near Chippawa. In November and December the Windsor and Prescott affairs followed, at Detroit and Ogdensburgh. I solemnly declare that the persons who planned and executed these three unfortunate movements, never once consulted me. I had declared my unqualified dis- approbation of such movements, and had no share in them—nor has one human being of those en« gaged ever laid it to my charge that I planned, instigated, or was in aught connected with them I was the while resident in New York. Igent to Noah’s oflice to buy his Messenger, that I might enab‘e him to justify his calumnies in a court of law, but the publisher refused to sella copy. Von Shoultz was in New York before the Baige, but Inever saw nor had any correspondence with him at any time. The Birges, Monroes, Put- name, and nearly a!l the leaders at these inroads into Canada, were to me utter strangers. As to my alleged want of courage, &c., I way nothing y old Canadian friends will decide on. these points when the Queen’s government are no longer afraid to allow me to go back again. Papineau, Rolph, Duncombe, Nelson, Gibson, Montgomery, &e., all forgiven. Why do Peel and Stanley make an exception of a coward, runaway, skulker, &c. unworthy of a petty place in a custom-house Why is the reward of a thousand guineas still held out for so unimportant a person as me’? Really he do me too much honor, ‘rom the day in which 1 interfered in politics in Canada, I was the sincere and determined advo- cate of American institutions and Americans.— “When all the wrongs complained of in the great declaration of 1776, and many more, drove the Lower Canadiansinto premature revolt, | did what I could to aid them.

Such was the state of men’s minds, that the then Mayor of Buflalo, unable to moderate or repress the excitement, at once resigned his office. It is abuse and bitter mock in Mr. Spencer to ac cuse a perfect stranger of having created this unu sual state of feeling among an intelligent comma- nity.

What did one know about it? Where or when had it even once been put in force? Was it fair play to hunt up the dry bones of this dead statute—drag an exile from British op- pression, who hada family to provide for, from court to court, from New York to Albany, and from Albany to Canandaigua, during 18 weary months, at a ruinous expense, in order that he might be made the scapegoat for the political sins (if such they were) of a v.hole frontier, and where eight of the jury were at first for acquital, and only four for conviction, to shut this exile up in an un- healthy prison for nearly twelve months, on jail pi ei closer than the worst criminal, in mockery of justice ! i Where the Judge who tried the cause, had de- clared that the result left no moral stain on the de- fendant’s character, and officitlly reported in fa- vor of his release, ix months before the expiration of his sentence—where the President of the United States granted that release, in evidence that the sentence was too severe, and at the request of 150,- 000 petiuoners from all parts of the Union;where 18 the ‘‘outrage” in offering that defendant years af- ter, the situation of an officer in a custom-house ? Were notthousands of Messrs, Curtis and Spen- cer’s political frends far more active than Mr. McKeozie? Were three of them whom grand ju- ries indicted, ever tried? Has Mr. Spencer hesia- ted to give and recommend them to office? Let him say that he did, and he shall have facta to the contrary Mr. Levi Woodbury, a Secretary of the Treasu- ty before Mr. Spencer, was applied to by me to re- fuad the heavy expenses I had incurred in conse- quence of the mismanagement of the courts, and the injustice that had been dene through the pros- ecution and the manner in which it was conduc- ted. This was his reply:— “Taxasvay Derantment, Feb. Ist, 1841. Sia: A few ane since | wrote you in reply to a former letter ou the subject of your grievances, stating that 1 had no power whatever to afford relief in the matter com- plained of. Ihave again to make the same declaration, and to assure you that, were cases of such character as yours cognizable by the head ofthie department, prompt and ample redress should be had. In the absence of « official control in cases of this kind, however oppressive they ray be, Congress alone can interpose, should it deem your case fit for the exercise of its remedial power. (Signed) LEVI WOODBURY, Secretary of the Treasury.” ‘The above letter, addressed to me at Rochester, N Y., 1s in a very different spirit from that of Mr. Spencer. Mr Cushing, Mr. Floyd, and Mr. Smith, of Vt., took charge of a memonial to Congress, but Mr Adams, the chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, had some difficulty with other ruembers of the committee, and I got no redrexs. England does not require her outluws to be pro- eciibed all the world over—nor did she thus pro- seride, but pensioned and employed the exiles of the French revolution. The Duke of Berwick, after the treaty of Utrecht, continued to hold the rank of a French general, although the most dan- gerous enemy to the British dynasty, and the pro- testant succession. He was an Englishman, and the natural son of James, the eviled monarch, but his station and residence in France were never com- plained of by Britain. i x _ Under the old French regime, a British outlaw, in time of peace with England, might be a French general. Under the obsequious Mr. Sec’y. Spencer, the poor fellow could not have guaged a cask o} Bourdeaux brandy until he had produced Queen Victoria’s pardon! So ashamed am I of the con- duct of Messrs. Spencer and Curtis, in my case, that I would have gladly concealed it from persons in Canada and on the frontiers, where my behavior towards Americans in times past 18 best known. Tf { had been the formidable and influential cha- tucter which Mr. Spencer and his British triends in London, by their continued outlawry, would seem to insinuate, where could I have been more out of harm’s way than in the obscurity of a small appoitment here? Such is, however, not the case. I sincerely desire all whom my opinion may hope to influence, to cultivate the most peaceful rela- tions with the colonial authorities and border popu- lation, and I appeal as a citizen of the Union against Mr. Spencer’s decision, and that of all others in office who may attempt to keep any adopted citizen an ontlaw from the advantages of the U. 8. Constitution, by such unjust decisons as he has made. ‘M. Li. Mackenziz. More about the Jewish Troubles. i Ava. 17, 1844. Having observed a communication in Thurday’s Herald, relative to the differences now existing in the Elm street synagogue, in which some worthy ot the Crosby street congregation undertakes to show his hristian brethren the party in error, I venture, through the medium of your excellent journal, to offer the following remarks in reply to that able document, should you think them worthy of inserting. Not being a member or seat holder in either place, I have no party feeling on the sub- ject, but I like not to see an individual come out for the avowed purpose of enlightening the com- munity on the merits of the matter in dispute. 1 can interpret his language in no other way, and in the very tace of this assertion, launch forth into a long strain of vain glorious boastings, to prove what forsooth the superiority of his own congre- gation over every other, without even touching on either side of the question, as though that was the point in discussion. Now, in the name of common sense, has he so pointed out (and | ask in all humility of the highly gifted gentleman for information) the party in er- ror. Certainly not, according to my poor capacity, by the long rigmarole of insufferable twaddle an fulsome egotism in which he indulges, tor no ocher purpose, it would seem, but to inflate up the self- created aristocrats of his own honorable Synagogue, at the expense. of his lees pretending co-religionists. Of a verity it is amusing to hear this modest hero vaunt ot rescuing the names of his foretathers from unjust inferences, which might be deduced from acts intolerant in spirit, when it is a fact notorious, that their degenerated descendants, who are so un- warrantably paraded before the public in this in~ stance, are at this very time exercising over the seat-holders, a despotic and obnoxious tyranny, which subjects them to greater evils by far, than those which gave rise to the present difficulties in Elm street, and at which thie consistent gentleman expresses so much virtuous indignation, for in this very temple of purity, no one, however worthy, can be admitted a member, unless he belong to a certain clique, who lord it over the rest, in a way that sa- vors very little of that pure republican spirit which your sage correspordent would lead you to suppose influences them. But the cream of the joke is, a greater part of these select gentlemen are compos- ed of these horrid Jadescas or Dutch, as he under- stands it, and whom he affects to hold at arms lengh, Nay, some of the very trustees are such— let him deny this if he can. ff the public, as he says, have nothing to do with all this, they certuin- ly can have less with the nonsense and bad gram- mer (totally irrevelant to the subject,) which he inflicts on them, backed by an array of names, allhonest gentlemen no doubt, and very well in their way, but I must venture to add, not quite so grand out of their little sphere, as some people would infer. He states in conclusion, his sole ob- ject was to set you right, (amiable condescension.) Now, sir, I ask, has he done so? to me it appears he never even attempts it. I must now take leave of tis intellectual personage and his pompous epistle, but advise him when he next attempts ex- Henations, to stick to the question, and not allow his brains to go a wool gathering, lest he wear them Honestvs. out.

Fine on Boarp tux Sovrn Amenica SreaMBoaT. —On Saturday evening, a little before ten o’clock, a fire was discovered beneath the engineer’stoom, on board the South America steamboat, moored at the foot of Murrayst. The alarm of fire was imme- diately given, and all hands on board, together with those on the wharf near,exerted themselves most en- ergetically to extinguish the flames—the hoee of the boat was soon got into play, but was found of too limited a power to be of any avail in extinguishing the flames, which were fast spreading. In the meanwhile, the Stewardess, who was on board, closed every door between the engine room and the cabins, and boldly resisted the endeavors of every one to open them ; at the same time the Mate was endeavoring amidst much danger, by means of buckets, &c., to keep under the flames which were spreading fore and aft. Fortunately at this time Engine No. 14 came on the spot, and their energetic endeavors soon got the fire under, and in the space of a short time the fire was subdued, al- though a breeze was springing up at the time. The fire was confined amidships by these means, and consequently the cabins were preserved, and ittle or no damage was done to any other part of the vessel, much owing to Mr. George Williams, and others employed on the spot. These, together with a bountiful supply of water from the hydrants of third ward, owing to the precaution of the inspector, was of great value. There is little damage done to the vessel beyond the engine room, ana the posts adjacent the beams have been much seared, but how far as to require them to be removed is a question for those ac- quainted with such matters to be ascertained. The fire is supposed to have originated in some cotton waste, which was beneath the engine room ; but whether from self-combustion, or from a spark that might have fell from the lamp in the engi- neer’s room, 18 not known. The whole damage done, it is supposed, that one thousand dollars will cover. City Intelligence.

We lately mentioned that the laborers on the Beauhar- nois Canal had been committing outrages on a portion of the works. Other facts we learned yesterday, and they are well worthy of the immediate attention of the author- ities. It would appear that on Friday afternoon last, the Irish portion of the laborers on Mr. Macdonald’s section of the contract, near St. Timothe, “turned out it is called, refusing to work at less wages than 3s 6d per day. This they were, of course, fully entitled to do— although, as they were receiving 3s a day, the highest rate paid on any of the public works, and abundsnce of labor could be obtained at that price, the folly of their proceedings is peticieniiy apparent—but, as i usual with these people, they were determined that no others should be allowed to accept ef what they retused ; and, although the Canadian laborers on Mr. Macdonald’s portion ef the contract were more numerous than the Irish, the latter, by threats and intimidation, have succeeded in prevent- ing the former from continuing at their work, which they were perfectly contented to do, and have thus consigned them to the same idleness, and consequent destitution, for which ‘ finest pisentry in the world” seem to have a natural liking—ever ready to gratify their worst passions, even at the cost of what others consider the nece: e and deceneies of life. We know that our inform: this subject may be ng gt relied joe and we are assured that, but for the peaceable disposition of the French Canadians, serious outrages would have been the consequence ‘of the illegal as weil as unreasonable con t 0 duct of the Irish. It cannot, however, be expected, that our industrious and peaceful fellow-subjects will tamely submit to be depriv of their right to earn an honest live lihood for themselves and families, by the high handed in- terference of these ignorant and misguided men ; ana, if they find themselves un) ted by the authorities, it is evident, that, in self-defence, they must either combine for their mutual protection, or be driven out of their na- tive land by gangs of marauding, and,when excited, mur- derous strangers.
