Turner, and turn adrift the whole crew from the. mate to the cabin boy ; thus, at the very outset violating | the terms on which he was permitted again to assume that command which his conduct has so justly forfeited,” is untrue in all its parts, as CapfaithWork did not say a | word to either except notify Mr. bof the settlement with the Consul, and to direct toxt cond mate and crew to go on and do their duty ; at the dinner hour the latter Toft the ship, visited the Consul’s office, and return- ed to their duty in the afternoon; and they continued at their duty the whole time tintil the departure of the bark, going to Sea.in Ker. Not one, from the second mate to the cabin boy, was dismissed, or requested to go on shore. Mr. Turner had nevér been récognized by him ‘as belonging tg the Aldebaraii, and Scott hdd been dis- charged ‘tong before. Had it been otherwise, would not such fact have been urged in the petition for the libel, or in the argument thereon ? would it not have been a mat- ter of complaint by Mr, Mure in his conversation with Mr. Robinson or Mr. Moor on the 2st, and especially so with"me on ‘the 22d, in all which conversations he de- clared that the whole affair, so far as he and the British sorer were concerned on this side of the Atlantic, ad been settled, that he had washed his hands of the whole matter, manifesting the utmost satisfaction at the result; when, if the occurrences he undertakes to des- cribe as a justification for his conduct had taken place, would he not have made them a subject of loud com- plaint, and eeictasy so onthe evening of the 21st, af- ter leaving the lawyer's office, where, according to the oath of Chilton, thé proceedings in Admiralty had been undertaken at his instance and request ? It is impossible to believe but what the Consul would have mentioned in his conversation with Mr. Moore at the Merchants’ Ex- change that night, such a wanton act of bad faith on the part of Capt. York, if it had existed, and he would have mentioned it the next day atone oclock , when he held the aforesaid conversation with me, ifthere had een al Ni elf saw Mr. Mure or Mr. Chilton, on the afternoon of the 21st, after the delivery of the letter, nor until the proceedings in Admiralty had been instituted, No demand had been made on Captain York to take Mr. ‘Turner as mate, consequently there had not been any refusal. This treacherous act, if com- mitted by Capt. York, must have been conceived and consummated on the afternoon of the 21st ; hence it fol- lows that this story has been got up for the occasion, in the hope of justify’ ig that, Ww ich without an excuse would be disgracéful in thé highest degree. ‘This fabri- cation still further induces me to believe that the Con- sul’s mind must be unsettled, as I cannot yet believe him | to be so depraved as to have eoncocted the story in his cooler and reflective moments. We have the confession in a part of Mr. Mure’s letter that Capt. Yorkhad been permitted again to assume the command of the Aldebaran, Why then call his doing so, being “smuggled” on board’? Why talk about “compromise suggested,” if it had been agreed to, and Senta York permitted to as- wer fag command pursuant to the terms of that compro- mise ‘We now come to the proceedings in Admiralty, Mr, Chilton swears—‘ That tho action and jurisdiction of this court are invoked herein, at the instance and re- quest of thesaid William Mure, representing the British goverement at the said port of New Orleans.” Mr. Winthrop swears—“ That Mr. Mure, the Corsul,. was at his office on Monday evening, (2lst); that Mr Chilton was also there ; that Mr. Mure in express terms consented and advised the institution of this suit.” Mr. Mure, in his letter now before me, says :—" Upon, Mr.Chilton being apprized of this wanton breach of faith (turning adrift the whole crew, from the secon mate to the cabin boy), he at once applied to his counsel for ad- vice, who recommended him to libel the vessel in the United States Court, and my consent being asked to those proceedings, was, of course, at once given,” How to reconcile these variances is somewhat difi- cult ; had the Consul not done more than he sets forth, it would not have been very objectionablo, provided, h consent was necessary to sustain the suit, or to give ju- risdiction to the Court, as it was expressly agreed that Mr. Chilton should be at liberty to pursue whatever course he thought proper—the Consul preserving perfect neutrality on this side of the Atlantic. Has he, in the language of his second letter to Captain York, of the 21st April, remained passive inthe matter? No one who shall take the trouble to read the history of this aftuir will accord to Mr. Mure the character of having acted “ pas. sively” in the matter. Two inquiries become proper—the first-is, was Her Britannic =Majesty’s Consul’s consent neces to | sustain the suit, or to give jurisdiction to the Comt? I answer, that neither was necessary, or could in the slightest degree affect the question. ' The question is, did the Consul preserve entire neutrality? His unvaried and untiring persecution of Capt. York, which continued | through the whole affair, answers this question. As | soon as I could get a copy of the process‘in Admiralty I | called on the Consul with it, early inthe morning of the | 23d, and called his attention to the oath of Mr. Chilton, fully calculating on Mr. Mure’s disavowing having authorized sucha use of his name and office, not then belioving he had authorized it. His allowing the suit to go on in his name, is a ratifica- tion of the oath of Mr. Chilton—as much so a8 if he him- self had taken that oath; and again, the testimony of Colonel Winthrop, the Proctor, nails him to the counter; and then, his refusal to endorse Scott's discharge on the ship’ ing Scott’s name from the register, as master, with a sharp instrument, so that it | could not be read, his inserting that of Captain Turner in | place thereof and in clearing her out under the command of Turner--his going personally to Court, and with the aid of counsel procuring an order for the delivery of te | vessel; and final ring the steamboat (and fein in her to the vessel) which took her to sea. All, alf torbit the idea of his ing preserved his neutrality, or acted in this matter passively, Mr. Mure’s other charges against Captain York are entirely gratuitous, and come too late to merit attention. In his letter to me of the Lith April, he indulges in some general expressions, in reply to which he is notified by my reply ofthe same dagg, of Captain York’s readiness to meet and refute those charges whenever ey. shall be brought forward before a competent tribunal to pass on the matter,and although they subsequently brought Capt. York before two Courts, not a worl was urged ner a particle of proof adduced in relation thereto; on the con- trary, the most satisfactory ptoof had been adduced of his sobriety, exemplary conduct, and capable, attentive, and peaceable deportment as a ship master. And gs to the Records of the Court in the suit of “Scott vs. York,” for the recovery of five pounds claimed for a pair of pistols and money alleged to have been lent— | furnishing proof of perjuty—ne such pi is exhibited. | A judgment was rendered for the amount on the testi- mony of the steward, (a man whose feelings were very much embittered against Captain York, who had found it necessary to pursue a rigorous course towards him) ilors who testified to ing heard a conversa +h they construed into an admission by Captain 4 ¥ | {To accuse a shipmaster in a foreign land,who had been | harrassed in la y drunken sailors, aided lawyer, of perjury, because the magistrate ren ered judgment against him on the testimony of thre: ors, =the s it defended by Counsel, and the justice of | which claim the Defendant denied on oath—is rather | severe! And are we to understand that Her Britannic | Majesty’s Consul considers this the right way to defend the honor of British ship masters who visit foreign countries, and ual, are imposed on by their sailors whenever they can get spirituous liquors After all the proceedings and the judgment rendered by the United States Court on the Rule in the Libel case, the Proctor therefor proposed to me, if Capt. York would yield the command and return with a free age to Hull, he should be furnished with letters from Messrs. Mure and Chilton to the owners and agents of the Alde- baran, recommending thom to overlook all that had o ccurred, and to reinstate him in the command; this was promptly ejected, there not having been anything done by Capt.

B. Dowaine, Keeper of Eaton’s Neck Light House. Ogdensburg. (Correspondence of the Herald.] Osvexspune, June 2ist, 1845. An article appeared under the head of “Theatricals” in your paper of the 18th instant, which does great injus tice to the band, of which I tim one of its members. Be- lieving that you are ever ready to repair a wrong when you know it to be such, I take the liberty of addressing you this note for publication, in order that the correction may be as extended in your widely circulated journal, 4s tho intentional injury on the part of those who have thus imposed upon you. In the article alluded to, it is sta” ted that the “Swiss” bell ringers(so called)‘offered tode. cide the capabilities of the new ‘Campanologian band,’ at Cleaveland, by beth giving a performance, and the public to decide as to thuir comparative merits, but the brothers declined the challenge and left the city.” ‘This statement we pronounce unequivocally false, and if ne- cessary can furnish the testimony of some of the most respectable citizens of Cleaveland to suhstantiate what we now sfate. The facts of i!:¢ case are simply these :— On the arrival of our agen: «: | icaveland, he ascertained that Corbyn, the manayer ui tic other band, kad just ar- rived before him, and secured the only suitable room to be had in the place, which, in fact, was then occupied by i n he had to pay a bonus for the use of it that night. ‘hus you will see we were pre- vented from giving a concert, and prior arrangements | precluded the possibility of staying on to another nigii! as we were urged by some of the most prominent men ot the place.

We gave a second concert at Watertown, Jefferson county, to the largest audience ever assembled at any concert given there. The editor of the Jeffersonian says :—“'The audience was composed of many of our most staid an worthy citizens, whose rapt attention evidenced their approbation of the Brothers. We regard the concert as one of the best ever given in our village, and wo ques. tion whether Mr. Russell, the far-famed vocalist, could command more enthusiastic applause.” We trust, ere long, to make our debut before the citizens of New York, when they will see what Yankee ingenuity and enter- prise has accomplished in six months practice in the art of “bell-ringing” Till then, believe us sincerely and truly, yourlriends, H. Swrer, For the “Campanologian Brothers.” Ixcreask or Bosrox.—It may be here remarked that the population of Boston was 15,520 in 1765, and during the following 25 years, including the period ofthe revolutionary war, the increase of Boston wes only 1,800 or 11,59 por cent; that of the whole Stute was 34,638 or r cent;which is greater than it hasfvcen in any pe of thirty years since, except from 1810 to 1340, when it was only per cent greater. During the forty years, {rom 1790 to 1830, it was only 6 per cent ter. The increase of Boston from 1790 to 1800, was 817 or 36.11 per cent; from 1800 to 181¥, 8,850 or 35.48 | per cent; from 1810 to 1820, 9,511 or 28.14 per cent; from 1820 to 1830, 18,994 or 41.78 per cent; and from 1830 to 1840, 31,991 or 52.10 per cent, Thus it appears that the increase has been Legs nap J the | from 1810 to 1920, and the greatest during the last al period, averaging 38.50 per cent in each 10 years, and 3.31 per cent per annum during the fifty y The increase from 1790 to 1840, was 75,063 or 409.73 per cent. It was over five times that of the other parts of the Common- wealth, In 1790 the population of Boston was less than a twentieth part of that of the whole State; in 1840, more than an eighth part. ‘This increase shows the tendency toacentralization of the population in Boston during the fifty years, Generally also the increase has been greater near Doston than in more remote places. This tendency to centralization is also shown by the fact that acircle with Boston as the centre, and with a radius of thirty-five miles, enclosed about half the population of the State in 1790; but acircle with a radius of twenty: nine miles, embraced about half the population in 1840, thus showing the diameter of the circle to have been contracted about twelve miles in fifty years. Also the Population embraced by a circle with a radias of thirty miles in 1840, was over eight thousand greater the whole number in the Courmonwealth in It appears further, that a line cast and west, through Boston, in 1765, and at each of the six e; 5 the United States census, divided the popta State into two very nearly equal parts, one li side, and the other on the other side of it north wid south, dividing the population of the S\ two equal parts, had its point of intersect! first line in 1765, near the western limit of Boston. Tliis point is the centre of population, ani moved westward until 1790, and continued to move slightly till it attained its maximum in 1400, in Weston, sbout ten miles from the place where it was in 1765, 35 years before. From the commencement of the present century, this point has moved eastward until 1840, when it stood nearly as far | east as it was seventy-five years before, namely, near the | western limit of Boston. A strong impulse is now given to the activity and enterprise of the citizens of Boston, and the prospect is that for some years to come, the in: | with the | crease of the population will be as gre it has been during any period since 1790. Its population, according | to the United States census, was 93,883 in 1840. The | number now is retahly about 110,000, In 1850 the num- | ber will probably be at least 142,000. Among the means calculated to sustain this activity and enterprise of its citizens, none are more obvious thanthe means of com munication, especially by railroads, which radiate from Boston as a centre, uortheasterly to Portland, the princi- pal commercial place in Maine; northerly to Concord, | the capital of New Hampshire; westerly to Albany, the capital of New York; southwesterly through Connecti- | cut; southerly to Providence, the capital of Rhode | Island; and southeasterly to Plymouth, where the first | Pilgrims landed.

It appears that a number of small landholders, and ox drivers,who have made a living by hauling sugar to market, had determined to resist the further construc- tion of the Mexican Gulf Railroad, and had assembled in iarge numbers, threatening violence to all who opposed their mad projects. . The Governor of the State by temporarily absent from the city, the AttornegAjene made a requisition upon Major General John B. Lewis, for a suflicient number of troops to bring the rioters to submission. That officer immediately issued his orders to the Legion, the Washington Battalion and the Lou: ana Volunteers. In a few hours aiter his orders were sued, about 100 men from the Washington Battalion and the Louisiana Volunteers, under the command of Lieut. Col. James B. Walton, reported themselves to General Lewis, at the Place d’drmes, where they were joined bi a detachment of about 30 men,from the battalion of arti lory attached to the Legion. With these troops General Lewis hastened to the scene of the disturbances, where he was joined by Judge Rousseau and Sheriff Cucullu, of the Parish of St. Bernard. The rioters made very feeble resistance, and about 30 of the ringleaders were immedi. ately arrested. A portion ofthem, who had been seduced from their allegiance to the laws by others, were dis- charged upon parole, while the remainder held to bail to appear before the next term of the Criminal Court of the parish. We understand that one Major Jose) Solles, a justice of the peace in his parish, was the chief of the insurgents.
