Whatever is intended for insertion must be authenticated by the name and address of the writer; not necessarily for publication, but as a guaranty of his good faith. We canno: undertake to return rejected communications "The Weebly Herald, ‘The WeeklytHerald will be ready this morning at nine o'clock, It will contain @ collection of matter that will be read with the greatest interest throughout the civilized world, comprising the official despatches of General Scott and his offleers, of the brilliant battles of Contreras, Churubusco, Molino del Rey, and the capture of the City of Mexico by our forces, and will form an authentic narrative of those great struggles and victories. It will also contain newsto the latest mo- ment, by telegraph and mail, from all parts of the coun- try; perhaps the expected intelligence by the Acadia, from Liverpool; political and commercial intelligence ; © sketch ofthe Hon. Henry Clay’s speech on the war, and his resolutions ; and every information in regard to the marketsand the prices of produce, &c., Ko.

The farewell address of Santa Anna to the Mexican people, and the manifesto of Paredes, are extremely amusing and interesting produc- tions. The Mexican leaders are well educated and polished men. They figure in ball rooms, in newspapers, and at foreign courts. They write with a great deal of eloquence and much unction. The Spanish language is favorable to eloquence—but when we have said this much, we have said all. In the real business of human life—in the deep diplomacy of great nations—in the great deeds of destiny, they are sadly de- ficient, and behind the age. Santa Anna’s address is one of the most ludi- crous productions we ever read. After the boasts which he has uttered, and the defeats he has received, it is quite amusing, and al- most irresistible, to eee him beg’for a certi- ficate of character from General Taylor and General Scott, and looking for an endorse- ment of his patriotism and military reputa- tion to those who have defeated him in every | encounter. It is said he has escaped from Mexico. This is probable. We should not atjall be surprised to see nim in New York by the next vessel from Havana; and if he were to come here, he would be worth, to Barnum, asa substi- tute for Tom Thumb, at least ten thousand dol- lars. Barnum has already cleared $5,677 124 by hie wooden leg, and of course he would multi- ply that eum by seven or nine times, if he had the whole person of the Mexican general. Of Paredes, who, by his fmanifesto, assumes the vacant place of Santa Anna in the Mexican mind, we cannot speak much more favora- bly. He was in Paris all of last winter.— He occupied a seat at the table d’hote of the Hotel des:Princes in Rue Richelieu—price five francs per day, wine included. We have frequently seen him in the Boulevards, and in the Champs-Elysées; and on one occasion at the ‘Tuilleries, He was presented to Queen Chris- tine, who then occupied the Hotel des Courcelles, inthe Fauborg St. Germain ; and, according to correct information, he was intriguing the whole of that winter and spring, for the purpose of | getting Louis Philippe to send the Duc de Mont- spensier to Mexico, backed by a French army cd fleet, to place him there as Emperor of the New World. Such was the rumor among di- plomatie cireles in Paris, at the time. The mani- festo ot Paredes assumes to give some color to such asuspicion. Whether the remains of the Mexican government now in existence, will en- courage such an intrigue, seems very question- able. Whatever may bethe result of the new efforts of Paredes on the existing government, we are persuaded our government will take care to pre- vent all attempts of European intrigue from suc- ceeding in the establishment of a monarchy there. Sooner than such a result should take place, it would be much better to annex the whole of that republic to the United States, at once. We shall watch with a good deal of interest the future movements of the chieftains of Mexi- | co, andthe fragments of the government that still exist. But this movement should not im- pede or distarb the purposes of our government, | in that region. Let our conquests be held and perfected according to the contingeacies of the future, and what is best for the interests of the United States and the whole continent. Miuitary Dr 3—A New Lireraturx.— | The despatche viexico, detailing the bril- | liant achievern e American army, con- stitute a new species of literature, which will | give a character to the reading of the times, and overwhelm some of the trash we are importing from Europe and reprinting here. Such trash, and similar productions originating upon this side of thefAtlantic, will not sell any longer. The age and the taste ofthe reading public are becom- ing practical, as well as chivalric and enthusias- tic. The recent despatches from Mexico will probably be read, during the present week, by eight or ten millions of people. Founded upon these astonishing deeds, a new species of lite- rature will be springing up, resulting from the letters, sketches, reminiscences and recollec- tions of these events. For a longtime to come the press will groan under them, to the utter ex- clusion of Europegn and similar trash. We are glad of it, for we were in want of something to give a more healthy and manly tone tothe public mind, and to restore a proper im- pulse to the literature of the nation Opinrons or THE Press nesrectinc Mr. Cray. —The daily journals of this city have come out with their opinions upon Mr. Clay’s resolutions and speech. The results are, those journals which have an aggregate circulation of from eighty toa hundred thousand per day, condemn Mr. Clay. Two journals, which have a circu- lation of from ten to twelve thousand per day, approve his position; while one or two others, having a somewhat less cireulation, are neutral. In the aggregate, the public opinion in New York is in the proportion of 100 to 16 against Mr, Clay's sentiments, as they are represented by the daily press here. The New England country journals are more favorable to Mr. Clay. Buninn THe Aox.—The greatest orators, states- men, and candidates for the Presidency, who have, been figuring before the world for the last twenty years, are getting very rapidly behind the age. The war with Mexico, and the splendid triumps of our brave armies, have upset nine- tenths of the great men of the last quarter of a century. American Contract with tne Britisn Go- vennment.—The Ocean Steam Navigation Com- = ; ‘The Italian We are at length enabled to give some infor- mation to the gay world aad to philosophical so- ciety, disclosing the important movements in the Italian Opera, for the approaching season, in this remarkable city of New York. In the upper part of Broadway, around Union square, is congregated a great portion of the wealthy, the intelligent, the intellectual, the gay, the pious, the honest, and the best educated society of New York. Many of the private resi- dences there ere built in a style of elegance and aplendor that would do honor to Hyde Park in London, or the fashionable fauborgs in Paris. ‘The churches and coach houses are constructed on the same principles of Gothic and Grecian taste. They have nearly finished a new Italian Opera House, of large dimensions, of elegant structure, which finishes and completes the fash- ionable region of New York. During the past few days various preliminary meetings have been held,and arrangements made, for the purpose of bringing forth this refined amusement ina manner never before attempted in this country. We have been furnished with several lists of parties connected with this move- ment, which are represented to us as correct, and we therefore give them :-~ mete ee ef ea Williams Morgen 40 Williams and'229 Fourth stregt, James Foster, 40 Bond street. ——- Collis. STAGE MANAGERS OF THE OPERA. Signor Sanquirico. | Signor Patti. { John Sefton. | Signor Albinola. These gentlemen are theatrical managers, un- der the guidance and superintendence of a pri- | vate committee, consisting of proprietors and some amateurs, who, occasionally, peep behind the scenes. ‘The following isa list of the troupe: STAVE OF THE ITALIAN TROUPE.

On the evenings of Tuesday and Thursday, meetings were held by the proprietors, artists, patrons, and subscribers, for the purpose of ar- ranging the seais and distributing the boxes to those who wish to patronize the opera. On Thursday evening a large meeting was held in the theatre; the following were the officers on the occasion :— Chairman of the Committee—Luther Bradish, 36 East 16th street. Secretaries—W.

Anderson, 643 Bowery, box No. —, 2d tier. us, and none known beyond the region of mere provincial theatres in Italy. Whether the wealthy and fashionable society of New York have liberality enough to support an opera is questioned by many. It is very certain that un- less a large portion of the floating population visit the opera every night, the subscriptions will be insufficient to pay the expenses of the troupe. The subscriptions forthe season are only equal to three or four hundred dollars per night, and the receipts must amount to six or eight hundred dollars, at least, to remunerate the services of those who require to be paid. Let us give them afairtrial. In almostevery theatre in Aurope, the Italian opera is aided by a ballet, except in Paris; but in that city there is a higher and more cultivated taste for music than in New York.— Can opera get along in New York without ballet ? Let us try. Laver rrom La Prate.—We have received by the way of Salem, the Buenos Ayres Packet to the 12.h of September, and from Montevideo to the 24th. ‘There was no news of any interest. The latest numbers of the Packet were filed with extracts from American papers, upon the war with Mex- ico. The blockade was still enforced, but not rigidly. Ma. Trist.—It appears that this gentleman has not yet arrived at New Orleans. Scientific Expedition ¢o the Dead Sea. ‘Theatrical and Musical. Panx Tuxatne.—Last evening Mr. Pitt presented his claims for a benefit at the Park, and we were pleased to see a much better house than we have seen at this place of amusement forsome time. The characters in which Mr. P. appeared were Shylock, in the “Merchant of Venice,” and Claude Melnotte, in the “ Lady of Lyons,” beth of which he sustained handsomely. At the close of the first plece, the audience called him out, and he made a very pretty speech on the occasion. He is a modest young man, but with a very large ambition, and we join with him in hoping that he “ may yet play to good houses at the Park theatre.” He certainly has de warm friends since he has been here, and we di pot that at a fut be will, if ne deeirento doo, ploy to large audiencesat“old Drary’” To-night, SI 4 comedy of the “ Merry Wives of Windsor” will be per- formed by am exeellent cast, selected from the Park com- 'r, Bass plays Sir John Falstaff, which intima- tion, to those who know the man, asd know also his manuer of playing the fat knight, is quite to induce Lory fe conan ee See ar ae be esent y Mr Dyott; r. 4 while Mrs, Ford and Mrs. Pago, are to be underteken bp Mrs Knight and Mrs. Abbott. After the comedy, vill be presented the farce of “ State Secrets,” not brought forward for six years until to-night. This all makes up capital bill. On Monday evening, Mr. Coline, the greatest Irish actoron the American stage, if the greatest in the world, and Mr. Placide, too favorably known at this house to require any thing more than an announcement, will sppear. Two of the best. pieces of these favorites will be brought forward, and all who feel inclined to be mirthful,can bero to their heart’s content. May they thrive as they deserve, Bowery THeatne.—As usual, the Bowery theatre was last night filled to overflowing, aud the applause with which the performances were received, was as great and as enthusiastic as it has been any night this season. Shakspeare’s comedy, “ As You Like It,” the excellent piece of “ Bam) osling,” and the Yankee comedy of the “ Vermont Wool Dealer,” are marked for this evening’s performance. The first mentioned piece is so cast that We stated, a few days since, that a party of naval officers, under the command of Lieut. W. F. Lyach, would shortly sail from this port, in the United States store ship Supply, to the Me- diterranean, for the purpose of making an explo- ration and survey of the Dead Sea. We have since received the following interesting commu- nication relative to the expedition:— To tne Eprron or THe Heratp :— In reference to the proposed surv: of the Dead Sea, “ cus bono?” several of the newspapers have ask: imovledge, trough your column, {sak permission ow! your columns, I as ion avail myself of the same medium to answer, brivtly, to the point of abruptness, questions at once s0 natural and 80 reasonable. ‘Although most reluctant to parade my insignificant name in print, I tuke this atep without an instant’s hesi- tation, in justice to the enlightened statesman whose mind in an instant grasped the importance of the ques- tions at issue, and foresaw the credit to be acquired by his country in their solution. For Be of four thousand years, the Dead Sea bas laid in its deep and wonderous chasm, a withering re- cord of the visitation of God’s wrath upon his sinful creatures. Itself once e fertile vale, teeming with popu- lation and redundant with the products of a favored ciime, it now lies inert and sluggl @ mass of dark and bitter waters, with no living thing upon its shore, or above, or beneath itssurface. Receiving at oneextreme, the mighty volume of iftand unfallicg river, and the numerous torrents that plunge into it through the olefts in its sides, it slowly rises and falls in ite own soli- wt bed, with no visible ou! for ita tributary waters. its lofty and fretted sides riven by earthquakes;—here blanched by the rain, there blackened by the tempest— rise perpendicularly fifteen hundred feet on one eide, and two thousand feet on the other; while from the summit, the awe-struck spectator beholds floatibg upon its surface huge masses of bitumen, thrown up from its mysterious vortex. Mount Lebanon is 9.000 feet above the Mediterranean, and 10,300 above the Dead Sea, woich is little more than one hundred miles distant from it. The “ Corral” in the Island of Madeira is won- derful, for it is the bed of crater nearly level with the ocean; but here isa forty miles distant from another ses, and upwards of thirteen hundred feet below it, The unbapey Costigan, tae only man who has under- taken to circumnavigate this sea, and who perished in the attempt, could, in one place, find no bottom, and it was indicated by incessant bubbles and an agitated sur- face. Whether or not this be the crater of s submerged voloano, forming a subterraneous aqueduct with the oot ‘who can tell? This unfathomable spot, whe- ther or not through an extinct voloano, i1 connexion with the of surface and the height of a oon- tiguous mountain, forms the most extraordinary fault, or fissure, in the known world. ; Ogden Haggerty, 8 Warren, sofa 4i, 43, 45, 47. .

By this it will appear that between three and four hundred seats are taken, by subscribers, for the season, already; but there are in addition, nearly one thousand seate that will still be vacant for the public at large—nearly all the pit, all the third tier,and some other portions. At one of those meetings a motion was made that all gentlemen visiting the opera should appear in full dress— white kids, white vests, white neckcloths, dress cor nd pumps; but it was not pressed, as it was supposed the ladies would regulate the dress of the gontlemen much better than any public meet- ing could do it. The opening of the opera will be a great event in New York. All the milliners and dress makers in the city, are,preparing . dresses for the la- dies, and every gentleman pretending to taste and refinement, is brushing up -his Italian, his music, and his reminiscences of foreign travel. Thus we go, in warand refinement. Thisis the fifth or sixth attempt that has been made to establish the Italian opera in New York.

The plaintiffs alleged, that on the 24th of November, 1846, the defendant gave them a verbal order to purchase 200 shares of the above mentioned stock, at 573 to 68, but not to exceed this limit. The same day the defendant went to Bost and onthe 26th, the stock was purchased. The ifs alleged that they notified the defendant by letter to Boston, that they had urchased. That after his return, they sgain notified , and that he sent them word to hold on toit. Ino few days after, the steamboat Atlantic, which belong- ed to the Norwich and Worcester Railroad C y, was wrecke consequence the stock wént down in the mark: nally the defendant refused to take or have an; todo with it.

There are three defences setup.

In addition to these attractions, the nau- tical drama of ‘“ Tom Cringle,” and the amusing inter- lude of “ The Actress of all Work’ will be performed — This is @ bill, and thisis such an ocoasion as invariably crowds theatre; and we would,therefore, recommend gentlemen who purpore taking ladies with them, to se- cure seateearly.

They also give that rich burlesque of the “ Cew! ” Sapte Hanmontsrs.—The bill for this evening is very amusing—a real Saturday night bill—just the thing for those who wish to wind up the week with gusto. Briggs’ banjo is something like Orpheus’ herp, of old, in the way of drawing people after him, though Orpheus is repre- sented to have drawn the stones and trees after him.

After the transaction of some preliminary and formal business, the members proceeded in order, to the chapel of the University, attended by a numerous and highly respectable company of ladies and gentlemen.

Third—Assuming the plaintiffs to be the agents of the defendant, they exceeded the limits of their authority, defendant having restricted them to 573 per share, and they having purchased some of the shares as as 68. ‘Fhe Juvce.in charging the jury said that it seemed these parties had dealings with each other prior to Ni vember, 1846; that on the 24th of that month th was an open contract between them; that plaintiffs to purchase stock for defendant ; that on the 25th plalntitn id ‘parahase 200 shares of the Norwich a ‘orcester Railroad stock, and made advances to the amount of $11,600 thereon; that after having laid out of their money until the Sth of December, they caused it to be by Mr. Bleecker, and after deduoct- ing the charges for commissions, interest and other mae: there was a balance of $1950 left, for which this suit is brought The plaintiffs now insist that you, gentlemen, are to renders verdict in their favor for that amount. ‘The first suggestion made on the part of the defence is this. that in point of fact, Ubie transaction was not a brokerage concern; and to sustain this proposition the statute has oeen read to you now. It is true, where a party bargains to sell stock to another, if the seller has not the stock on hand at the time, the law will not suatain the bargain; and it you can bring your minds to the conclusion that this was not o brokerage concern, but a mere private transaction be- tween the parties; that ae only agreed to sell it to the defendant, why then there is no proof that they had it on band, for it appears they bought it next morning; then all bargain of that kind is void under the statute, and you need not go further; the defendant would been- titled to your verdict; but if you come to the conclusion that the plaintiffs wi ployed by the defendant as his agents, to purchase the stock, then your verdict should be for the plaintiffs.. As to the statute of frauds, which is also set up as & di , that statute declares that all contracts, where the consideration is $50 and over, must bein writing. I am bound to tell you, that where a plaintiff brings his action, it is his duty to make out his case by legal evidence; and if he do not, he must fuil ‘The pidintiffe say that, as brokers, they advanced their money for this stoc m defeudant’s account; and the question for you to determine, in this case, is, whether bag did or not. You have heard the witness, who testi- ‘nure before you, that defendant read to plaintiffs from # book, a memorandum, made by himself, showing that he directed them to purchase 200 sbaren of stock tor him. If the defendant gave this direction to the plaintiff, there can be no do be if you are satisfied of that fact, that they acted in the transaction as his brokers, they would be entitled to your verdict. But if ou are satisfied on the first point, the defendant should ve your verdict. The next polat is, did they, the plainitffs, conform to the directions cf the defendant? The law requires that they should strietly conform, and keep within the limits of their instructior if the plaintiffs were instructed not to go beyond 57, and they went to 58, the stock is their own,and they must keep it. In this branch of the defence, the great point before you is whether the evidence limited them to 5734, or had they a diecretion to go to 58? If we were to speculate on this matter, we might readily come to the conclusion that one party might understand the instructions to be 57}, and the other to be 68. Weknow that in loose conversations, where parties are conversing about figures so closely connected as 67}¢ and 58, they might misunderstend each other, and that is the most cl Titable conclusion to put on it; but it is only from the evidence you must decide whether they complied with the instructions. Ifthey did not, they must bear the joss. Sealed verdict to-morrow (this morning) For — Wightman & Ciarke; for defendant, Mr. J. M.

Arrested on a Bench Warrant.—Joseph O'Connor was arrested to-day, and it into court officer Bloom, on # bench warrant issued by the C of Ses- evidence Bensamin F. Butuer, the audience by the Vi Esq. Mr. Butter commenced an oration replete with deep historical interest, and bearing marks of profound and elaborate research, by making a benpy. and ingenious allusion to the new constitution of State, referring to the remarkable manner in which so important 4 change in the organic laws of the ernment had been made. The orator deduced from facta the evident and important conclusion that here we see estab- lished and proved to the world the ability of the ea Je to sustain a free republican government. Mr. But- le then proceeded, accor: to the by him stated, to discuss and comment upon the history of the State governments ot New York, which he Lap aes for the subject ef hia discourse. The whole was distributed him into three heads or divisions. as follows :—1s1 ‘The united provincial, or original Dutch govern ment. 2nd. The English government 3d The con stitutional government established after the great American revolu'ion and independence. Under the first head the orator entered into a pleasing sc- count and description of the troon system, and threw much light upon this dark but naaeet teaee, of New York history Under the second head the pro- gress of liberty and liberal sentiments, in spite of the oppressive and uojust character ot the English govern- ment, was happily traced out. Under the head Mr Butler entered into a deep and learned an} of the various constitutions under which the State of New York has successively flourished since the period of the revolution, concluding with an‘ elaborate and in- teresting analysis of the present new constitution. comparing it with the fermer, and those of the sister States. Mr. Butler showed that there is no charter in the world which equals it in the freedom of ite prin- ciples, Itis now the standard of oivil dutv, and the measure of our political liberty. All that is valuable iv former constitutions has been preserved, while much more has been added. By its provisions the immediate agency of the people in the government has been much eplarged. It is particularly distinguished by a watoh- ful care and jealousy of the legislature; but its most important provisions are those which relate to the f. nd and property of the State. To secure these more effec tually was toe great object of calling the convention.— ‘There are two great principl which it is based ; first, that sovereignty resides in the people; second, that delegated power ought to be restrained. These t fully and faithfully carried out in our mn; the largest, freert, and most liberal of any drawn up since man was united in civil oment.

Captain Smith states that as he threw himself upon the berth his ge was attracted to a handle sticking M4 near, which he thought belonged to an adze. He told the boy to fetch it, and it proved to be an adze. Thinking that something wrong was about to be en- acted on deck, he followed the boy when he returned, and saw the boy seized round the waist by the now des- perate Brown, with the intention of making him th victim. At this moment the captein states that he gifted with extraordinary strength, stepped forward and rove the adze twice into the head of Brown, and he fell dead upon deck.
