T have now the pleasure since my last, (under the sig- nature of Paisano’) to communicate to you the incl- dents accompanying one of the most glorious achieve- ments that has graced the annals of the Mexican war on this aide of the land. On the next day after tho arrival of the Warren from the coast of California, it was ascertained that the far famed brig Malek Adhel was lying in the inner harbor, where she had been seized by the Mexican government, on the plea that she was illegally sold at Acapulco last May. She had arrived here from Guayaquil, and the authorities had seized her, stripped her of most of her spars, and tho sails were sent on shore, Prepurations were now made to cut her out of the harbor. The next morning the boats were hoisted out, and everybody and everything in requisition in the preparation of arming and equipping them. The ung were reloaded, muskets and title were undergo- Ing the repairs necessary to put them in Aghting order, such as the examination of locks, tlints, kc. Cutlasses ind Roman swords were brought from the arm chests, and the carpenter and his mates were busily employ in putting a keen edge upon these deadly weapons. Cartridges and cartridge boxes were filled, and all the necessary implements put in complete order to ensure success. In order that you may be better acquainted with the locality of the place, | have drawn a small plan of the harbor, which you will see above. This will bet- ter give you an idea of the situation of the two veasels, and the imminent risk attending the enterprise. At one o'clock everything was ready- the anchor eat- ted, and we stood into, under all sail, the harbor of Mazatlan, between the Isle Creston and Isle of Vuardo, which are about half a mile apart. At two o'clock, we dropped our starboard anchor, in about 3% fathoms of water, abreast the innor point of the isle of Creston, and about three-quarters of a mile from the Mole, and veered to forty fathoms of chain. with a spring upon our cable, which, when hove taut in board, brought our starboard battery to bear directly upon the town, but somewhat covered from the Mole by a point which makes out from | the low promontory extending to the outer bluff. At hulf-past two; the boats left the ship. ‘They con- sisted of the launch, commanded by Lieut. Wm. Rad- ford, ex. officer of the Warren, with Acting Master W. 1H. Montgomery; the first cutter, commanded by Lieut. W. B. Renshaw, and the second and third cutters with Midshipmen Wheeler and Crain, making in all, officers, seamen and murines, 70 in number. As they pulled for the brig, which lay quietly at her anchors about one-third of « mile distant, all was intense anxiety on board. Nothing could be heard but occasionally the well known voice of the commander, or that of the officer of the deck, as they gave the orders to veer uway the chain, or haul in on the hawser, so as to keep the ship in ‘a favorable position—or, at times, the orders of the offl- cer who had chargo of the divisions of guns, whose duty it wasto keep them well trained upon the crowds of people who were seen making their way to the beach. In a few moments they reached the brig’s sides, and shortly after the American ensign was seen hoisted at | her gaff. No resistance was made by those on board. Among those who were taken prisoners was a Passed Midshipman who had the wateh on board of her that day, and some half dozen poor miserable sailors, The executive officer was on board, when our boats left the ship, but seeing them pull towards her, ordered one of the seamen to land him on the beach, and he then made for the town, leaving his companion to get out of the scrape the best manner he could. As the brig was moor- with both anchors, it was necessary to haul her within two hundred yards of the Mole, so as to secure their anchor and chain; this subjected those on board te the fire from about 300 soldiers, who were well drilled and armed and provided with ammunition, and who, if but one spark of courage bad been left, could have picked aman off at each fire, as they were so near them that those on board could distinctly discern the breast- lates of the soldiers. In the face ef all this, and in oud daylight, did they secure one of her anchors, and # hundred fathoms of chain, and about fifty fathoms of her other cable, which was out astern. It was now ne- cessary to carry out hawser and kedge, in order to werp out the brig. Acting Master Montgomery now took charge of the launch, and placed a kedge abreast the outor bluff. In pulling’ past the long promontory which makes out from the mole, he could distinetly see Trade with Japan, (From the Calcutta Star, Oetobor 26.) Some weeks since, intelligence was recelved from home of the intention of the British Government to nage the island of Labuan as a naval station, and we tool occasion to notice the immense advantagey to our trade in the Eastern Archipelago, likely to arise from such a measure. In connection with this subject, it may be well to call attention to the increased interest which is manifested at home in our trade with the far Hast, which in oapecially evinced by the project which hes some time past been a matter of discussion in the English papers, that of sending out # mission to the Court of Yedo, for the purpore of establishing commoreial relations with the Japanese. Whether an attempt to open this extensive empire, or n part of It, to Britieh trade, is likely to be successful, and although it is more than pro- bable that great difeulties would be met with at the outset of the experiment, yet we cannot but think that it ix worth trying. It is true that the East India Com- | pany expended some five Inox of rupces or more in ite attempts to open a trade with the Japanese in the seventeenth century, but there appears cvory reason to beliove that had the privileges obtained by the treaty of 1613 been followed up, our intercourse with the country would have continued uninterruptedly up to the prosent time, The Company however did not think it worth | while at that time to take any decided moasuros towards establishing any extended traffic on the basis of the treaty, andas a petty trade could not then be carried on without loss, the enterprize was voluntarily abandoned in 1623. Subsequently to this, endeavours, were made to recover the lost ground, but tho intrigues of the Portu- uese, who were alway inclined to interfere with the r igion of the people, and who according tosome accounts actually plotted the subjugation of the empire, so ex- axperated the government, that towards the close of the seventeenth century, all foreigners were expelled the Japancrr dominions with the exception of the Dutch, who haying always held themselves aloof from mission- operations, managed to secure for themselves the privilege of driving ® limited trade at Nangasaki, flourishing port of Kiousiou, the most southerly of the Japanese islands. There is no reason for supposing that the English adventurers would not have been then able to hold their ground, were it not for the story, industrious. ly circulated by the Duteh, that the King of England had married a Portuguese princess, and that therefore the interests and objects of the two nations were in unison, The trade of the Dutch with Japan, however, has always been of a very insignificant sort. Their factory at Nangasaki is situated on a small artificial isiand of rome half an acre in extent, all access to which fs closely sunrded by Japanese soldiers, No more than eleven Huropeans are at any time allowed to reside on the island, and the treatment these people receive at the hands of the Japanese, would hardly be endured we should say, by any other people than Dutch traders. It issaid that the person at the head of the mission is obliged tosubmit to every indignity at the hands of the meanest native officials, and with reference to the re- strictions under which their trade ix carried on, Macul- loch gives the by ng The Dutch, who were the first itted to visit the empire after the repulsion of the Portuguese, had their earliest fhctory on the island of Firato, but they wore removed in 1841 by the emperor's Extreme Bluff, Lat. ‘23.11.40 N., Lon, 106.22.24. W. THE REFERENCES. D Position of the Malek Adhel Position of the U. 8. ship Warren. F, Two mounted field pieces. the soldiers, numbering some 80 of 100, who wore sta- tioned midway the length of this long reach, in a cleared place, which overlooked the boats, and from which a well-directed fire would have sunk the launch, destroyed all thone in her, and frustrated all their plans of kedg- ing the vessel out, Mr. Montgomery pulled by them, let go his kedge, and made for the ship to get another haw ner; thin was soon passed into the ‘and he returned tothe brig. In the mean time, the anchor of the brig had ‘been weighed, her head turned round, and they were towing her out past the bluff; the soldiers had le! their station on the mole, and were hurrying to the cleared place midway been the bluff and the mole, where were their comrades drawn up in battle array, seemingly ready to pour a yolley into the brig as she passed, ‘The marinos, who had been sent in the boate in the charge of Lieut. Henderson, were drawn up in line along the starboard side of the brig.readyto return the fire in caxe they should commence first from the shore; the battery of the Warren was, however, brought to bear upon this point of defence, and av sho lay with her sails tothe must, broadside to the town, and her long row of teeth peering out, well trained for the hill, presented a most formidable appearance, and gave additional secu- rity to those who were on board the Malek Adhel; but if there had been stationed upon this eminence some two or three pleces of cannon, and those well managed and manned, they could have easily sunk the brig, and destroyed every man in her, without suffering materially from the fire cf our battery, for the place was so hidden in the rear by bushes, fern, &e., that they could have kept themselves ontirely under cover. On clearing the outer point of the promontory or bluff, there is s small | shoal upon which tho brig grovmded, and remained for | nearly an hour; this was owing to a strong current sct- ting to the eastward, between the Ialand of Creston and the main land; the kedge was ee far enough to the west, and in a direct line from the ship to the point, but owing to this current, they were unable to keep the hawser taut from the brig,and thus prevent her falling to leeward. By nix o'cloek, however, they had succeeded in kedging her to the ship, and having secured ber with | two strong hawsers, male sail, and towed her out of the harbor, when we came to anchor with the brig on our | larboard quarter, furled sails, and thus ended the ex- | citing day. ‘The fact of these cowardly wretches making no resis- tance, or not a gun being fired, does not in the least d tract one iota from the danger and risk which was at- tendant upon this bold enterprise; no one knew-to what extent the brig was manned or armed; it was well known she had formorly been an armed yeasol; and when stories of this nature once get affont, they lone nothing by belng twice told. The garrison of the town consisted of 800 well-drilled soldiers, and six pieces of brass cannon, and knowing all this, it was natural for every one to infer that they vould meet with some rebut from the enemy, whom few felt inclined to think were such contempt blo cowards. ‘Tho nocessity of taking tho brig must be ob- vious to all; she was the only armed vessel on this sido of tno coast, and if allowed to have remained in the bands of the authorities, no doubt in a short time, would have been well armed and manned, and given trouble to our shipping on this coast. She is said to be one of the fast- eat sailing vessels in tho Pacific, and if this be true, will prove # most valuablo addition to our squadron on this coant, as a handy vewsel to xend for despatches; she has been ‘fitted out with spars, sails, and rigging, from the Warren, and has been sent to the Bay of La Paz, under the command of Lieut.

We are however hye cod to think that an attempt made at the present time to open a trade with these people would stand n better chance of success than our previous ones, and that relations might be established totally freed from the restrictions ander which the Dutch labour. The Morning Chronicle, a paper which has taken the lead in advocating the despatch of a mixsion to Jap Our settlement of Labuan and Hong Kong, our ocoupation of Chuan, our late victories in China, our new and multiplied relations with the various groups of the Oriental Archipelago, must in a short thme suffice to convince the Court of Yedo, that it will searcely be practicable to stand much longer aloof from the great family of mankind.” The same paper suggests that the Government of the Netherlands would probably be disposed to co-operate in faeilitating our negotiations, and refers to the fact that in 1813, exactly two centuries after the date of our treaty with Japan, Sir Stamford Raffles sent a couple of merchantmen to Yedo, and they were permitted to sell their cargo ata very considerable protit. ‘The nature of the trade carried on by the Duteh with Japan, is one which would afford immense benefits to British merchants, The islands are said to have a popu- lation of, according to the lowest estimate, more than 60,000,000, and as the Duteh find an excellent market for the very limited quantity of merchandise they are allowed to offer for sale, we have no doubt that were the market thrown open, the demand for the chief articles of import, such as cotton and woollen cloths. raw silk, sugar, spices, dyewoods, metals, and glass, would be very extensive.

Business with the rene sage of the United States brought me to Washington city in the summer of 1845. The kind and courteous manner with which I was received by the ad- ministration, led me to accede to the invitation made me to remain there for some weeks. During that pe- riod, and merely as a kind of literary entertainment, I undertook the’ publication of a weekly paper, (the -durora) edited in Spanish, French and Engle in asso- clation with Mr. W A. Harris, the present Charge d’Af- fairs of the United States at Buenos Ayres, und Mr. John Heartt, tleman who is at this moment in this vity— those gentlemen being at that time the editors of the Constitution, the organ of Mr. Calhoun at Washington The fact of my association with them for the publication of the urora,which was printed in the saue office with the Constitution, my acquaintance with the administra- tion and the unsuitableness of the place for such an un- dertaking to be expected to receive any kind of #upport from subscription only, were circuinstanc: Hing enough to attract the attention ot the several corre: pondents of the leading papers of the Union at Wash. ington. And I cannot do less, notwithstanding my de- sire for shortening this communication, but to qi here from some of these commentaries, for it will amuse and explain at the samo time, better than I might do, what was thought at Washington concerning our pri- vate undertaking. (From the Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald, Oct. 9.] STARTLING DEVELOPMBNT A fow days ago I informed you of the discovery 1 had made of the existence of an association, having for its intention some extensive operation upon our foreign relations. | have, since then, attained other knowledge, which induces me to believe that its object is to extend and increase our Union by means of the gradual annexa- tion of the neighboring countries and islands, and to bring us into a close and intimate confederation with the South American states. You must have noticed the re- cent establishment, at the seat of government, of a Span- ish newspaper, issuing from the office of Messrs. Harris & Heartt, of the Constitution Would any sane man, I ask, believe for a moment that such a paper could be suported by the Spanish in our Union alone? Would Messrs. Harris & Heartt engage in an enterprize which apparently promises yo little success, when they thomselves must be convinced by experience of the obstacles to the establishment of a press, though backed by the power and influence of the Calhoun clique? No. sir, the editors are too old birds to he caught with . The Periodico Politico y Literario depends upon another and a surer support than the doubtful patronage of the French and Spanish population resident amongst us. The golden stream will flow into the pockets of the editors und of their co-laborers from other sources than the advertising columns and subscription list. Yes, an association, that has been spreading in secreay, even of existence, over the land, is now, with coffers Trimming with gold, arming itself with the mighty weapons of the press, the lever on which government and public senti- ment vibrates, as the vane quivers on the lofty spire ; and now, for the first time, is the voice of alarin heard through the columns of the Herald. calling, the at- tention of the Amerfcan people to this vast and secret organization. Far abroad on those two continents, wherever the French and Spanish languages are spoken, will the Peri- odico Politico y Literarto, reduced to a nominal price, appear—the apostle of those principles and views which it may suit the purposes of the association to promulgate —while, perhaps, another paper, issuing from the same office, may indoctrinate the citizens of the United States with fit and suitable principles. Can an association with such ample means at its command, be under the com- mand of others than eminent men? The affirmative is monstrous—the annexation of Texas was brought about in secresy,and almost consummated beforeit was dreamed of by the public at large. And will we now view the scheme proposed by this Association more chimerical than the incipiency of the Texian plot, which has just been consummated. And, perhaps, thut step was but the initiative to other ebjects, and we may soon look for another move on our political chessboard—and of ite success may judge by Texian Annexation. hasbeen the fountain spring of this secret union? Let the hand of the dial go round, and the index, marked with the mystic Cabala of association, may point to the thirty-one cd building, where the “great umend- oe of Annexation resolutions deals out his fiscal man- te.” So far the Herald. ‘The non-continuance of the publication of the paper was the strongest refutation of such suppositions, and to | destroy at once the fantastical allusions which its foun- dation created, and which might have engaged and _per- hapa also brought into a conflict, the friendly Telations etween the government of Spain and that of the United States, by supposing that the latter was the promoter and ng for its views, those ag attributed to the durora.

Contemporary to the establishment of the Jurora some events having ocourred in Cuba, was charged by some political friends there to make the government and people of the United States acquainted with those events, as well as with the feelings prevailing in Cuba to- wards the United States: to inform them of our evils, our complaints. our intentions, and our hopes, to me with the sympathies of this free generous peop who are the hope of our country. from whom expect all, and then it was that Uh “Jurora had a politi- cal aim—though, as in the commencement, absolutely independent of the government at Washington. In fact, the stupid policy of the Spanish government had arrived in those days, to its height, and the Creoles were determined to oppose all kinds of resistance #0 as to prevent from being carried into effect certain deerces. by the home government. and which after depriving Cuba of the precious right of being sepreserited in the National Congress, ordered—Ist. ‘To close the Universi- ty. 2d. To suppress many municipal offices (the only offices allowed to the Creoles). 4d. ‘To impose addition al taxes to those oppressive ones before extablished; lastly, to oblige the Creoles to enlist as soldiers, in order to march under Santa Anna, to aid Mexico in the war with the United States; and doubtless it would have | volved the Island im a civil war, if the policy of General O'Donnell, superior to that of his government, had uot prevented it, by suspending the execution of suid de- crees. ‘Truly, its due to General O*Donnell’s policy alone that Spain remains to-day in tranquil possession of Cuba, though it may be but very transitory, for we are tired of so much oppression and suffering, and begin to feel the necessity of putting on the shelf our Spanish rulers, and try the experiment of governing ourselves We shall have at least one satisfaction to console us. should it not succeed, for it cannot be worse than the vicious system at present in force among us, with th advantage, at all events, of having acquired our free- dom. It hardly can be doubted that the em: Cuba, sooner or later must follow. ‘The Sp: ment thinking to prevent this event by means bitions and all kinds of despotism, will serve only to pre- cipitate it.
