Cimcurr Court —- Ix Cram —Bofore Judge Ed- —In ro Henry P. Wanmaker.—Decision.—The in this matter, which was reported in the Sun- day Herald, was given this morning. The Judge said the Public Administrator was appointed by statute, ‘The question then before me is, whether that statute is still in force. The constitution (new) declares that such acts of the Legislature as are now in force, shall be and coutinue as the law of this State, except Sch parts as are repugnant to this constitution. It is not pretended, nor have I been able to discover any thing in the con- stitution repugnant to that part of the statute which confers on the Common Council the power of removal. The ground taken before me is, that tho statute autho- rizing the Common Council to ‘appoint. is repugnant to the constitution, which declares that th: jeer should be elected or appointed, as tho Legislature should desig- nate, I cannot discover between the statuto and the constitution any such repugnancy. The Legislature may make the ofiice elective, or may direct that it ma: be filled up by appointment of such of the city authori- tlos us they may designate; und they have y de- signated the Common Council as such authority; and the constitution, which gave them this power, declares that their authority shall be and continue, until altered by the Legislature. ‘I'his intention, when so evident, must control all judicial action, and compels me to de- clare, that Mr. Thayer is duly qualified to execute the ofice of Public Administrator, and is entitled to the or- der he seeks for. Order granted. Unstep States Cracuit Count, May 17.—Before Judge Nelson.—Andrew Thorpe et al. vs. Cornelius W. Lawrence.—Action to recover $122. amount of duties paid under protest.

New Yorx, Monpay ArtrRnoos, Mav 17. The arrival of the Britannia, at Boston, with two weoks later news, was announced by telegraph this fore- noon, The news appeared in an extra Herald at about 1 o'clock, P.M. The information, as far as communica- ted, was considered favorable for breadstuffs, and on the meeting on ‘change holders demanded higher prices. In the forenoon before the publication of the news, sales of Genesee flour were made, to arrive in June at $7 50a$7 6234; and In July at $7 26; and on the spot at $7 94a$8. After the publication of the news a sale of Genesee was made ut $9 25, being an advance of 31\e per barrel. Eight dollars was refused for three thousand bbls. Corn before the news sold at 96c for nothorn yellow, and to ar- rive in June, July and August at 90c. After the news, sales were made at 100a102a1030. Meal sold before the news ut $175, After its receipt, holders demanded $5. Rye sold, after the news at 105c; and oats, to arrive in June and July at 50 cents. Owing to the fact that parties in Boston en- trusted with culling and sending on the foreign com- mercial nows by telegraph, having wholly omitted any notice of the Foreign Provision Market, dealers were left wholly in the dark, and operations were {in a measure suspended, except alot of old Prime Pork at $13 123,. Some now Mess at $16 1234, and some tlerces of Shoul- ders at 9X0. sold before the news. omission, the merchants interested made considerable complaint. Another class, interested in Naval Stores, also complained that tho telegraph report made no allu- sion to their value abroad, and hence there was no movement in them to-day, A large house in this line, at its own private cost, sent to Boston and obtained the lust quotation for Spirita Turpentine in London, which proved to be 5Us., and which was kindly handed to us for publication. This, it was suid, exhibited u decline since the last news, In Groceries there was scarcely to note in prices.

Day, arrived at the Levee, at Now Orleans early on the morning of the 10th instant from Vera Cruz, whence she sailed on the Sth inst, By this vessel we have received, says the Picayune, «> tra,our regular correspondence and files of Vera Cras and Jalapa papers, Apartfrom the intelligence contained in our letters, we loarn vorbally that an express reached Vera Crus a moment before the suiling of the James L. Day, with in- formation that a deputation had come down from the city of Mexico to request Gen. Scott to take the capital under his protection. This nows is almost incredibie; but whon it is remem- bered that the system of guerilla warfare has been adopted by Mextco, and that the banditti who engage in this service wre us dangerous to their own country- men as to the enemy, the report gains some probability. The impression was gaining ground in the army that there would be no more fighting. It was not expected that there would be any opposition this alde of or at Pus- bla: und it was even doubted if the Mexicans would de fond thelr capital. Expectations of this nature have Proved deceltful so often that we indulge them with much misgivings. The Mexican papers continue their declamatory sitio: that jexico has given ater umbrage than all gard him in the light of an official pimp, a treasonable pander, a perfidious miacreant, and, indeed, the concen- tration of baseness. They think that he was sent there by the American cabinet in tnoekery and seorn. We have already copied the article of El Republicane upon Atocha. ‘That paper—the very best im all Mexico —the highest n tone, and the sturdiest defender of re- publican institutions when the monarehieal party was in the ascon ant— fter noticing the arrival of Atocha, on & mission from this country, and recounting his past his- tory in Mexico, exelaims:— “O, God! this is the greatest sign that thon hast for- gotten us. Send upon us bombs. rifles. grape shot. aud every class of projectile and misfortnne; burn us, reduce us to ashes, destroy us—annihilate, but do not dishonor us. Send the entire North to subjugate and rule over us, but let not Atocha be the broker of a contract of peace, because that, devolving upon ur the grenteet scorn,and the greatest humiliation, would be (0, God] thy greatest punishinent.”” ‘This, we are assured, {3 a true reflex of the feelings of the better order of Mexicans in regard to the unfortu- nate appointment, The whereabouts of Santa Anna is somewhat proble- matical. The last authentio intelligence located him at sub sequent rumors report him as having gone South to re eruit his ranks in Oajaca, It is certain that he has not shown himself at the capital since bis defeat. ‘There isa report that be desires to leave the country, but Mr. Kendall thinks be may make a dash upon do- tached parties in the rear of the army. or vpon wagon h a view to reinstating himself in the good opinion of the nation. It wus the intention of Gen. Seott, upon the arrival of the wagon train that wasto start from Vera Crug, about the 6th inst, to cut off all connection with the sea const, rely upon the country fur sustunancs, and push forward for the city. The general order, dated at Jalapa, 80th April, inti- mates as much. But Mr. Kendall's letter of the 4th— the very latest nuws—throws some doubt upon the speedy adoption of this pian, in consequence of the de termination of the twelve months’ volunteers, in a body, not to re-enlist. This may retard the advance of the army, unloss, indeed, the reported readiness of the elty to surronder be confirmed. If the rumor prove true, the guerilla troops are mero marauders—a band of pirntes, and should be treated accordingly. Gen. Worth was gathering up all the grain he could, and has all the bakeries at work, as if in anticipation of \reaking off communication with Vera Crus. It will be gratifying to all to learn that Gen. Shields was thought to be in @ fair way to recover. We havo always regarded him as about the best appointment from civil life yet made by the President. Maj. Gen.

The Adjutant General states the loss to be 429—four hundred and twenty-five. ‘This discrepancy rises from the fact, that in the official re- port the loss sustained by the Tennessee and Pennsyl- Vania Regiments, under Gen, Pillow, is not put down. We have before us a list of the killed and wounded in that brigade, which we subjoin—premising that it should have been published yesterday, but was omitted by an oversight, because it did not kecompany the copies of the official returns, which wo for the moment imagined embraced the whole loss sustained. The annexed lists do not como to us in the same precise and authentic shape as those published yesterday, but are doubties correct. let Brig.
