NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Thursday. October 2, 1845. Steam Ship Cambria, This steamer is fully due, and we ought to re- ceive her news this morning. Mackenzie's Book—The Letters of Jesse Hoyt and James Gordon Bennett, ‘We give in our paper of this morning, the letters attributed to the editor of this journal, James Gor- don Bennett, stelen from the Custom House, and | surreptitiously published by a fictitious firm, “ Cook | & Co., Boston,” but ostensibly purporting to have been given to the world by ene William L. Mac- kenzie, a Canadian refugee. We mingle with those letters, the letters written by Jesse Hoyt, Exq., to us in the year indicated, in order to place before the publie the whole of the facts relative to the charac- ter of our connection with the Van Buren party, be- tween the years 1828 and 1833. We publish these letters in eur possession, written by Mr. Hoyt, for the purpose of repelling the gross and slanderous | impututions made against us, by the pamphlet of Mackenzie, and for which he has the consummate impudence to apologise, in the fullowing terms, in a note addreased to us: Witiamesuron, L. 1., Oct. 1, 45. To tHe Evitor of tHe New York Hemarp: Sin What may be the contents of the letters of which you speak, as addressed to you by Mr. Hoyt, | do not now; but/ am perfectly certain that your words and figures, in the postscript to which you have reference, were correctly quoted You said $200, and your letter has a0 #tasures, either by me, yourself, or any body else.

As the words stood, my comments were fair deductions. What you might have intended to say, 1 cond only judge of by what you The purposes of public justice, and common prude: required that the letters generally should be placed in saie pli eyond the reach of a replevin writ, till re- vr at ington and Albany.

Yours, very obediently, W. L. MACKENZIE. We hav already explained—and these letters jus- tily that explenation—the matter of the ‘$200 in specie,” as it is incorrectly and falsely published in Mackenzie’s pamphlet, showing conclusively, from the whole character of the correspondence, that in- stead of any specie being sent to us by Jesse Hoyt, it was merely a United States Bank transaction» which, in the position we were in at that time in re” gard to polities, and in our connection with a news- paper in Philadelphia, could be advantageously used This gross and untounded charge against our integ- rity, is now sufficiently explained, and recoils with double and triple force upon the miserable creature, Mackenzie, who has violated all principles of social intercourse, by surreptitiously publishing these letters in the manner he has done,in connection with many parties in this city, whose names and purposes will be brought out one of these days. It is, indeed, very evident, from this note from Mackenzie, which we have just given, that he is merely the instrument of others, who keep behind the curtain—that there are parties to this transaction still more wicked and un- principled than Mackenzie appears to be, and who will be brought forward in due process of time. But, in the meantime it 1s mo.t remarkable that the persons then in office in the Custom House, from ali the evidence which has been presented, were perfectly acquainted with the whole affair ; and what is even more striking is the fact that Greeley & McElrath, with some of their confederates, were equally well acquainted with What was going on. “With respect to the other charges and inuendoes against us, we despise them from the bottom of our heart, and care nothing’ about them either one way or the other. We do not care if the whole of our connection and the history of all our acts, and say- ings, and doings with the Van Buren party during the entire period of our connection with them were look at the domestic policy and miserable career fo Tyler during his few years in the same place. — Having thus placed ourselves in a proper position, | so far as regards these matters, we shall go on and review the remaining correspondence, and letters, | and developements in this book, without fear or af. | fection towards any one, and endeavor to deal justly | and accurately with all parties concerned. | pai Caan Larer rrom Caraccas.—By way of Philadelphia | we have received Caraccas and La Guayra papers up to the Sth inst. The President of Venezuela; accompanied by Mr. B. H. Wilson, the English minister to that Repub- lic, had gone ona visit to Maracay. The opposi- tion papers are very violent in their strictures on the actions of the government, and intimate that this visit of their executive to Maracay is with a view to take steps to put a final extinguisher on the li- beral party of the Republic. They also accuse Ge- neral Paez of aspiring to the Presidency next year. The partizans of Gen. Paez in reply to the asper- sions of the opposition we have just quoted, state that so far from Paez being ambitious to aspire to the Presidency in the coming elections, he has dis- tinctly refused that office, though he had friends suf- ficent to elevate him to the Presidential chair. He made a speech telling them that he by no means de- | sired it, and that if the question was forced on him | he would leave the country. He also was oppesed to | being elected on the ground that a civilian only | ought to fill such an office. The merchants and business men of Caracas had | petitioned the city government to enact laws pro- | hibiting the opening of stores and transaction of bu- siness on Sundays Aytt-Rentrsm.—They have at last brought one of the trials at Hudson to a close, and sentenced one of the anti-rent leaders to the State Prison. To accomplish this feat, several protracted trials and a large expenditure of money were necessary. Yet how long will it be till the Executive of the State pardons the convict? As soonas his aid is deemed necessary in electioneering, probably. In Delhi, they have commenced the trials, but hundreds fill the jails there, and it would take years to get through with the calendar. All these trials, in fact, will do nothing to cure the\disease. The trading politi- | cians have fastened on this anti-rent movement, and they will go on till the rights of property be cverthrown, and all the owners of real estate, in city and country, be reduced to the same condition as the Van Rensselears and other landed proprie- tors in this State. Tue Mormon War.—The war upon the Mor- mons has at last begun as we have all along predict- ed. No one can tell where itis to end. This re- ligious fanaticism is a curious and eccentric ele. ment. The imposture of Mahomet sprung up in the East in a state of society in some respect similar to that which now exists in the Western States of this Union. When Mahomet appeared in Arabia, the Christian world, as well as the heathen world, was split up into a variety of contending sects. Such is now the condition ot the West. Who can tell where this extraordinary movement is to end? Our Retations with Mexico.—The Washing- ton Union is now hard at work exaggerating every rumor from Mexico, and endeavoring to persuade its readers that there will be war with Mexico despite of all the facts to the contrary. We believe that this is all done designedly, for the purpose of justifying the expenditures of the’ government, and aiding the views of those who have the chance to make the most out of the warlike movements in Texas. Curacoa.—By the packet barque J. A. Jesurun, Capt. Vinall, fifteen days from Curacoa, we learn that that island continued heaithy, although the crops | were likely to suffer from drought. Baron Von Ronders, ex-Governor of Curacoa, was to sail the | day after Capt. V. left, for Surinam, of which place the Baron had been appointed Governor. | Currovs Crreemstance.—From information com- municated to our Brooklyn reporter, by a gentleman of well known respectability, it will be seen that a published to the world to-morrow.

Cricxet.—The second eleven players of the St. George’s Cricket Club, of this city, left last evening for Philadelphia, to play a friendly game with the se- cond eleven of the Philadelphia Club, which comes off to-day on the ground of the latter, in Camden. On Mon- day next the first eleven of both these clubs, meet fora Courver during that year, 1829, and my connection with it continued till 1832, when I abandoned it in consequence of its abandonment of General Jackson | and his administration. I then removed to Phila- delphia, purchased an interest in the Pennsylvanian there, and commenced a movement for the purpose of elevating Mr. Van Buren to the succession after General Jackson’s second term. In all these move- ments and matters I was open, above-board, frank, Without any reservation or equivocation.

As | this opera has been performed several times, we have al- ready given our opinion on it. To-night we have Fra Diavolo, with the prima donna as Zerlina, and Messrs. Gardner and Brough as Fra Diavolo and Beppo. The farce of the “Four Sisters” will conclude the evening’s entertainments, Bowsry.—The crowded houses that nightly “fill to overflowing full,” this attractive source of evening recre- ation, is a sufficient proof of the high appreciation in which the efforts of its proprietor are held by the play- going public. ‘The cordial support which the theatre has received since it was last opened, speaks largely for the good taste of the denizens in the vicinity of ‘old Bow- ery,” while the attractive bills which are nightly present. ed, prove the deep and grateful sense entertained by the proprietor in relation to the generous and renewed sup- port the theatre has received, since its last passage through the “ fiery ordeal.” ‘The bill of fare last evening was deeply attractive, em- bracing three pieces, either of which would be sutflicient to draw ahouse. ‘“ Damon and Pythias,” “The Mountain Drover,” and “ The Black Rangers,” presented at once a variety of attraction which could not fail to crowd the house to the very ceiling with groups of spec! the “ gazelle eyed” maiden of “ blushing fi shone out in all her dazzling lustre from the boxes, the jolly hearted tar in the pit, and ‘de boys of Bowery” in all parts of the house. “ Friendship, that soothing passion of the soul,” is not more beautifully illustrated, in any of the ancient or modern poets, than in ‘ Damon and Py hias.”” There ) to de than the noble feeling of friendship ; tiinl moral in the plot and design of this play, which calculated to elevate mind.

We tear but few of his admiring associates would be found with a pure, un- sophisticated regard, capable of voluntarily relievinj him from his prisou, even for a month, by changing wit him, Mr. J. R. Scott at Damon in this piece, performed with admirable ability, showing a just and accurate concep- tion of the part. 'His noble bearing and generous conti- dence throwing open his very bosom to his f iend in his difficulty—in a word, his general performance was well sustained, and drew forth irequent plaudits during | the evening. Davenport's Pythias was also a respectable piece of acting, and the caste of characters were alto- gether well sustained. Drover” was again repeated. Bli chard and Cony with their dog, which isa great favorite with “de boys” in the pit, were excellent in the piece. The clos in which the ‘faithful dog” saves the life of hi and kills the Drover, drew forth re- peated bu f applause. The Black Rengers wound up the performances. Castix Ganvey.—Lart night, after the usual concer, by the company, a capital burlesque on the opera of the Postillion of Lonjumeau, called the Post-heel-on of Long- Jaw-bone, was presented, and passed off in fine style.— | This is the last week of the burlesque company, and all who have net seen them should improve this opportuni- ty. Tonight the same bill is presented. Patmo's.—The Ethiopian Serenaders are in the midst of triumphs’ The fashionable audiences that they nightly gather round them, are, as usual, most highly pleased with their eminently graceful and scientific manner of &e. ke. A funny incident took place the other night.— | Among the numerous visitors that were attracted to hear them, was Ole Bull: and it so happened that he arrived just in time to hear them sing the song descriptive of the Tamous violin match between him and “ Old Dan Tuck- er.” The effect may be imagined. The whole house | was convulsed with’ laughter, and none sho ved more delight than the great Norwegian himself. To crown it | all, at the close of the performance, bouquets were show- ered on the stage in profusion. The performances to- night are, as usual, coining all their beautiful songs, Ninio’s Garpex.—The performances of last night were such as have rarely been! equalled on the New York stage. The completeness of the ceste—the excellent stage appointments, added to the admirable acting of the dramatis persona, were indeed worthy of tho applauses ofthe immense audience, and they were most heartily bestowed. The play was Sheridan’s unrivalled comedy of the ‘School for Scandal,” and those who were not fortu nate enough to have witnessed it, may imagine how i | Went off, when Mrs. Mowatt, Mr. Crisp, Henry and Tho mas Placide, and Mr. Chippendale, supported the prin | cipal characters. Of Mra. Mowatt’s performance of Lady | Teazle, it were vain for us to speak. This is the first | time, we believe, that lady hax appeared init Lefore a New York audience, but throughout the entire piece her acting was faultless. Of Mr H. Placide’s Sir Peter, We can only say it was the Sir Peter of Sheridan. Mr. Crisp excelled in the gay and thoughtless Charle: and Mr. Chippendale and T. Placide, gave such a rep: | sentation of I'mp and Moses, that these generally unim- | portant characters were almost made the most prom: | nent of the piece. The piece is repeated this evening, will not lose such a treat to-night. Ove Buiu’s Coxcent.—The first Concert of the great | violinist, since his return to this city, will take place this evening, at the Tabernacle. Of the great attraction we need scarcely speak; he is shortly about to leave us, | and we have no doubt that if there be any who have not heard him, they will not neglect this opportunity. He is assisted by Miss Northall and Mr. Duffield, and a full and effective orchestra, under the able direction of U. C. Hill. A temperance dramatic company is performing tempe rance plays at Detroit Signor Blitz will give exhibitions this week at | chester, Cambridge and Brighton, Mass. Dr. Valentine is at Cleveland.

I then returned to New York—started the Herald with the knowledge I had of men and mat. ters throughout this country, and have been success. ful ever since. I did not oppose Mr. Van Buren’s election to the Presidency in 1836, although I knew very well and believed that career would end in disgrace and disrepute in a variety of points of view» ws we have recently seen. A weaker, more imbecile and ridiculous administration than that o MartinVan Buren, as President of the United States has never been known in this country, unless we FP te ticular, who, with lit cards hung round their necks the inscription am blind,” “are found at almost ry corner. The living which these people obtain by this mode, must be very precarious, and it is the duty of the city authorities to remove them from the walk, and provide for their necessities.

The following rules were then adopted :— Any person, male or female, present, may propose a subject for debate, but that none but members shouldvote.

Afterwards, he (Mr. 0.) would give all the information he could on the gablece, and would propose certain remedies for the evils which afflict acaleny. and would be glad to hear sed by other members of the Con- other remedies prop vention. ‘Ts0N offered a resolution that the members i 1 responsible for an: ideration, and that eac! member shall have the privilege of withdrawiog from the society when he pleased.

Antixoton Benner thought that there should be power vested in the Convention to expel any man whose character was found to be bad, for such persons may propose subjects for discussion and debate upon them which would tend to the disgrace of the Society: Mr. Hay thought that any man in possession of his liberty should be received as a member. ‘A Gextieman moved that none but respectable per- sons be admitted Veicx—Define respectability, Sir. Mr. Rycxman thinks the Convention has not power to enquire into the character of any man Men of the worst character have often the gre: perience, and could enlighten us on tl vils of hu ity. Mr. Coutins said, thatas the preliminary business had been got through with, it was time for the Committee to retire and make their report. While the Committee were out, Mr. Collins addre the Convention—He said that he was convinced of one thing, and one thing only, and that is that Society is ina very diseased state, andthatnine-tenths of the crime committed in the world is caused by the unequal distri- bution of property. If arrrangements were give man a proper education from his cradle, he that future generations would tell that man is po: of an inherent nature to make himself happy and virtu ous, but we do notexpect that those who now possess advantages overtheir brethren will be willing to forego changes will produce certain benefits. He defined his | meaning ofthe word liber:y, by saying that if a man had a largereye than another, he was entitled to a greater share of light, end that if he had a bigger belly, he was entitled to a greater share of food. The committee came in and stated that they could not get accommodations , and instead of drawing up any re- | port themselves, they had egret upon recommending certain resolutions which had been previously drawn up by Mr. Owen, Mr. Owen then read the resolutions, and the conven- tion adjourned to this day at 9 o’clock. Mr. Owen’s resolutions were— 1. That through the past history of the human race, there has been much misery produced from ignorance, | disunion and crime. 2. That there have been always substantial caus 3. That while the causes exist, so will the effects. 4. That these causes are removable, and should be re- moved as soon as possible. 5. That the cause of ignorance is the want of a system- | atic i a 6th, That the cause of disunion is an inferior educa- | tion LSeoke to human nature. 7.7 hat the cause of poverty is extravagance in many, the want of beneficial employment of others, misapplied industry, standing armies, destruction of property by wars, want of a just circulating medium. 8, Cause of crime is ignorance, disunion and poverty. 9.

That man’s natural and acquired character is form- ed tor him, and that society,to make man happy, charita- dle and intelligent, must be founded upon a knowledge of humanity. | 12. That hitherto the human portion of man’s charac- | ter has been formed under the supposition that the cha- racter of each individual has been formed by himself. fotdggThat the time hus come when a change will be of fected. 14. That the United States is peculiarly well situated to commence this change. 15, That it is for the interest of the United States to set tho example. 16.

That these societies be conducted on the princi- ples of universal ci ty. New Virtue or Guano.—In looking over some South American papers, we came across some singu- lar facts regarding Guano, which puts it in the light ot a medicinal agent. The facts, are as follows:—The disease of Elephantiasis has long been the scourge of many parts of the Southern continent of America. | Itis a cutaneous disease, accompanied with great swelling of the legs, &c., and a'together so loath- | some, that hospitals are set apart to receive the un- fortunate patients, where they live perfectly shut out from all communication with the rest of the world. One unfortunate man, who did not wish to | enter these hospitals, betook himself to the Island of Chincha, where Guano is abundant, and employed himself digging it out for the vessels that loaded there. After three years residence here, he became quite cured, it is supposed, by the plenteous exhalations of Ld bap that he had lived among.— However that may be, two or three other cases have been likewise cured by this mode of treatment, and these Islands are likely soon to become the resort of all affected this way. | instructed to solicit. | the 6th ward, on | whieh the rogues From Venezveta.—The Philadelphia U. zette publishes a letter from La G tember 4, the substance of which is Government seems indisposed to make any re now imposed on American produce. ‘The letter rgely from a note of the Foreign Secretary to Mr. e United States charge at Carracas, contro- verting his arguments in support of the reduction he was * Police Intelligence.

Be- fore, however, he could reach the place, another person snatched the treasure, and was quietly walking off with it, when Mr. White and two other gentlemen enquired of him if the property was his? He stated that ae me nis of- fice in Wall street he would send an advertisement to the several newspapers for the discovery of the loser. Upon looking over the most widely circulated journals ‘esterday morning, no announcements could be found It relation to the Money, and the circumstance may therefore be regarded ‘as one of a very suspicious and mysterious character. It is to be regretted that the gen- tlemen who saw the money picked up ¢id not insist up- on having the name and address of the finder. Mr. White states that the parcel must have contained several hundred dollars; and he took such a Poronge observa- tion of its fortunate discoverer that he could identify him among a thousand individuals.

A Goop Arrointment.—The Board of Supervisors of Kings County ointed Ja: H their clerk, in signed the office a few ago, after a service of for- ty-four years. A better selection could not possible have been made, and it is the more creditable to those who | made the appointment,that Mr.Paterson was not an appli- cant for the office,and was chosen with entire reference to his capacity, against the strenuous exertions and active caucussing of ten or a dozen prominent politicians, who anxiously sought the office. Mr. Paterson is the account- ant fur the city of Brooklyn, and alse holds commission trom the State Department at Albany, as Notary Public and Commissioner of Deeds.

The applica- tion was, of course, granted. Rior amona Finemen.—Some firemen belonging to companies Nos. 3 and 4, of the city of Brooklyn, got i to a disgraceful fight on Tuesday evening, in Myrtle av nue, near Sharp’s Hotel.
