Wasnixaran, May 04, 1068, ‘The city ee the Capitola Pinos by Suntight. completely deserted, . I saunter ed, yesterday morning, ta the capitol, through the sweltering heat, and picking my way through the multitude of chairs and benches airing in the ro- tunda, visited both legislative chambers. I found them filled with clouds of dust, and completely gutted of their appurtenances. A few solitary members flitted about like ghosts in the vast soli- tude. The atmosphere of the Senate chamber smelt consumedly of soft soap and sand. Of the | former article, a great heap lay where Mr. Cass’s desk had been—still unexpended. Near by, a party of men were laboring to remove from the floor an incrustation of tobacco juice. On inquiry, [found that it was the spot occupied by Mr. Tur- ney. Upin the galleries were upholsterers, with paper caps, and sable dusters busily at work. In the Vice President’s chair, playing the part of President of the Senate, wasa quizzical looking apprentice boy, of an oldish look, wearing a paper cap—very like a fool’s cap. With this appendage Mr. Dallas dispenses, probably deeming it unne- Standing in Mr. Preston's place, wa’ a shrewish looking old woman, who, with arms a-kimbo, occupied herself with scolding the others. Her connection with the Senate, she said, com- menced more than thirty rs ago, and in that time she had introduced ‘a great many improve- mentsin scrubbing and dusting. The old lite seem- ed desirous of exacting a most deferential obedi- ence to her wishes; but she had evidently no control over her fellow-laborers, who went on laughin; nd jesting with each other, and doing their wor! after their own fashion, regardless of the remon- strances which she continued from time to time to shriek forth. Stepping up to a respectable-looking negro, who was engaged in cleaning around Mr. Hale’s desk, asked him did he not feel grateful for the efforts of the New Hampshire Senator in behalf of the colored race? He replied he did not feel any par- ticular animosity to Mr. Hale, but it would be bet. ter for his race if all such men were born without tongues. The miseries they inflict on the colored race by their agitation, he said, were incalculable. For his part, he had never seen any good come of it; but, on the contrary, the greatést mischief. I was here attracted to another part of the ber by seeing a crowd round one of. the work who held a paper in his hand, whi cessary. jong a8 » in wi e marke h lo ied to that, tt either of them (persons spoken of for the Prosi- dency) had made any intimation of this character, we should have despised him as one utterly unwor- thy of our own support, or of the confidence of his country.” Now this assertion needs no comment. It would be improper to question it, unless we take General Jackson’s opinion of Mr. Ritchie, in pre- ference to his own assumption of chastity. _ Mr. Ritchie departs from his “ usual habit in no- ticing such correspondents,” for purposes apparent in the article itself, viz.: to show how pure, disin- terested, and patriotic he is. _ Well, every man has a right to know himself; but Mr. Ritchie is, in this respect, deficient—or, rather, he is not aware that his political course is condemned by very many democrats. Why was the public printing, by a democratic Congress, given out by contract! We relieve Mr. Ritchie from the suspicion as to who Felix is. He does not know me. I never spoke to him but once, and then in his own office ; and I saw enough of his character to satisfy me of his worth. As tothe ‘ regard” ot Mr. Ritchie, I care about as much for it as he once did for the Sub-Treasury and General Jackson. Feuix. Puivapetruia, May 25, 1848. Politics—Incendiaries—The Murderer-- Theatrical. The anxiety to hear from Baltimore is growing more intense as the action of the Convention is delayed by the discussion of the claims of the rival delegations from New York. Many of the persons from this city, who are interested in the proceed- ings’of the Convention, have been kept there so much longer than they expected, that their funds | have evaporated, and letters have been received asking for remittances to enable them to return. _ An incendiary was caught in the act, last night, in Spring Garden, after having set fire to the train which was to involve an extensive establishment in flames.

The political atmosphere is equally surcharged with combustible matter, and the process of its consump- tion is an equally interesting phenomena. ‘The vote in the Convention this evening is a cu- rious and interesting affair, upon inspection. ‘The question Was upon an amendmentto an amendment to the report of the Committee on Credentials.— This report proposes to admit the Old Hunkers as the legitimate delegation—the amendment proposes to refer the subject back to the committee, and the amendment to the amendment proposes to admit the Old Hankers and the Barnburr tween them the disposition of the 36 State.

It was neces- y for Virginia to consult, on account of her y representation, With Pennsylvania it was in a more important view. If the Old lone were admitted, the 36 votes of New rs, leaving be- votes of York York would, probably, go for General Cass, which would be thus much to the defeat of Mr. Buchanan. But it would, on the other hand, endanger the chances of Mr. Buchanan in the North, if Pennsylvama should be the means ot excluding the urners. This was a nice point, and she, th re, held back, and not until all the other States had voted did she declare herself, and then it was 19 to 7—yust enough to clear the question of admitting both delegations.

Crry or Mexico, April 30, 1848.—The inclosed letter of your correspondent at Queretaro should have been in’ my hands last night, but some irregularity in the post office here prevented my receivimg it until this morning. You will see your correspondent announces the im- portant fact that a quorum is at Querétaro at last. and that Congress only awaits the arrival of the American commissioners to commence its deliberations. Why they should wait for the arrival of the commissioners to commence their sittings is more than I know. Their first duty, as required by the constitution, is to clect a President, and this bef tering into a considera- tion of the treaty. The commissioners are waiting to hear officially that Congress is prepared to sit before they leave for Queretaro, As soon as that fact is an- nounced to them by the Mexican government. they will start. They expect to receive @ communication by the mail which arrives from Queretaro on the 2d of next month, Last night the city was thrown into a state of great excitement by the circulation of a letter purporting to be from Queretaro, of which the following is a trans- lation :— PoruLan REvoLUTION AGAINST THE GoveRNMENT At Quenrrano, A respectable gentleman has received by ¢ dinary express from Queretaro a letter, which other things says Queretano, April 27. 1848, 7 ILo'elock at night. |§ Dear Friend—The people have become weary with uffering the oppression aud sport of petty tyrants. This at least is the case with the Mexisans; and, by the omnipotent exercise of its will, discarding what ix called the general government of the nation, estab- lished at Queretaro, it has prostrated to the earth its treacherous oppressors. At 9 o'clock on the night of this day, without any resistance, it proclaimed the only plan which in the present clreumstances can save the country, viz.: * War, and war without truce or quarter, until an honorable peace is conquered !”’ Such is the programme of this happy revolution, at the head of which are the distinguished Generals Al- monte, Bustamente and Paredes. to whose voice all who are Mexicans, rather than partisans, will respond.

The advices from Queretaro show—if betting be taken as an index--a division among the mem- bers of Congress on the subject of peace, 0 (whom your correspondent says has made a bet of $5000 that there will be no peace) is one of the wealthiest and most influential men in Mexico, He is a Spaniard. and for the last ten or twelve years. by means of his wealth and his powers of intrigue, which are said to be great, has, whenever he pleased, controlled the government that has existed in the country. He is, too, tho staunch friend of Paredes. and when Paredes was Pre- sident was his mainstay. [ have been surprised to learn thata man of Rubi wealth, and with the stake he has in the country, was opposed to peace, as he must know that the nationality of the country is lost if the treaty now at Queretaro is not ratified, But he is the owner of some of the largest cotton factories in Mexico, and y desire the extension of the American government over the whole country to give that security t try which experience has proved never will exist under the Mexican government. He is a large commercial speculator besides, and, like many others of that class, may be opposed to peace at the present time lest the goods they have ordered from abroad may arrrive after the treaty has been ratified and when the Mexican tariff will come into operation again, This has been suggested to me as one reason for his opposition to peace by un old and intelligent resident of this who knows him well. From what [ hear of the charac- ter and power of Rubio I attach great importance to the position he takes in regard to the treaty.

The defence was, want of cousi2era- tion and usury. It appeared that Goodyear, one of the defendants, gave the note toa person named Hotch- kiss, who proeured for him $300, and was to receive a quarter per cent interest per day. Hotchkiss gave it to Pemberton, and the latter gave it to the defendant, Benson, who gave him $400 for it, and placed the bal- ance to his, Pemberton’s, account, Benson gave it to the plaintiffs in payment of an old debt. The defend- ants insisted that the transaction between Goodyear and Hotchkiss was usurious. and vitiated the whole transaction, but offered to pay the $300, with interest, advanced by Hotchkiss, which the plaintiffs’ counsel refused. On the part of tho plaintiffs it was contend- ed that they were pine de holders, and ought not to be prejudiced. The judge told the jury that the plain- tiffs could not recover but $400, supposing that there was no usury in question; but the question of usury was one of fact, and if they believed that the passing of the note from one to the other was a cover for usury, they might tind forthe defendants. Verdict for plain- Uifls—against Benson $692, and against all the ether defendants, $415 13. Before Judge Ingraham.—Wm. W.

It was finally decided to put the con- spirators in irons, which done, and they were then taken from the vessel, ironed as they were, put on shore on an island where there was no water, and which was uninhabited, exeept by ferocious beasts, and foreed to remain there three days and three nights, They were, however. furnished with an. old sail to sleep in and aquantity of bread and water,— From thia island the taken in an open boat. still remaining in iron 200 miles lower down on the coast, where th of war Portsmouth was ly- ing, and on board of that vossel examined by Capt.

He replied that he was away down east, and “ dead broke,” and that he wanted to get to Hudson, and in order to accomplish this, under the uliarly perplexing state of his finances. he gave a Fei his jacket to start a report that he was the at a ting anti-renter, In less than an hour, h he “was arrested, placed in a devilish nice coach, an drove to Hudson with a epeed that he never before ac- complished after horseflesh.”’ This (says the Albany Knickerbocker, after alluding to the facts) is one of the mopt finished “ do's” we have ever met with. * Demme Amentenn an the Froneh Ae srs erat tal pie Sat Rete ete ' 4 of making fhe Exwottin pesent ecnaist of oma stead of a single dont, asin the U: ‘This is the only intelligence thus far received which throws the least light upon the probable future of the French Republic, or indicates in any degree the shape which things are taking. It renders it certain that there is now to be a struggle between the conservative republicans and the radical democrats—the former led by Lamartine, and supported by the most intelligent, and thus far the most numerous, portion of the people, and the latter by Ledru Rellin, backed by the rabble and aided also by the Socialist. Communist, and Fou- rier theorists, with whom fanaticism supplies the plaee of actual suffering, and who ure more numerous and more formidable in Paris than in any other city in the world. ‘This struggle is to commence in the Assembly, a body made up almost entirely of new men, elected under a revolutionary impulse, and therefore repre- senting and sharing the passions which gave them power, and peculiarly subject to the dictation and do- mination of the mob outside, ‘The conservative party will seek to preserve order, to guard property. to pro- mote the public prosperity, to render the ordinary pur- suits of life, in all departments, safe, quiet, and profl- table, The very attempt to do this will subject it to the charge from its onemies of counteracting the Re- yolution—a charge which is uniformly made agefns the party in France which seeks to arrest disturbance, and which has never yet failed to prodnce an effect. Thus will the old contest be renewed—the same which has always been waged in France, as indeed, with more or less distingtness. in every other country in the world—the ¥ame which in the first. revolution plunged the country in blood and covered the world with horror—the same which drove Louis Pailippe from his throne and created a republic to be rent, and it may be destroyed, by the same ever beginning never ending strife! ‘The republic is thus likely to fight the same battle in which the late king was worsted—but it occupies a better position, one lower down, nearer the people, and in which it may, therefore, hope for far greater popular support than the monarchy enjoyed. With this support it is ardently to be hoped if, may maintain its ground against all the elements of disor- der and of crime that may combine against it. But the struggle will be carnost, we fear bloody, and it must be added, of doubtful issue. ‘The proposition to commit the executive power of the republic to three consuls, seems unpromising. It has been tried and did not succeed, In that experi- mont, to be sure, Napoleon's genius and ambition con- founded all calculation and usurped all the power which it was designed he should share with his col- leagues, Cambaceres and Sieyes were ciphers, when they were not his tools in the executive department. ‘There would always be a struggle for personal suprema- cy in such a council, and without reference to its is- site, the fact of such a struggle would paralize and con- found all its efforts for the public good, Besides, in this case, the consular system is propered as a compromise, ud Ledru Rollin, the life and head of the ultra radi- dicals, is to share its power with Lamartine and Du- pont (deVEure.) Such a council would be simply an arena for constant and most bitter quarrels—the na- ture of which the history of the present provisional government sufficiently indicates.—New York Courier § Enquirer. The French government is going through one of hose indispensable, nay, inevitable crises, to which every revolutionary government must be exposed. To bring about a revolution in Europe the co-operation of the lower is needed with the middle classes of society, the blouse as well as the-bourgeoisie—but the latter are never willing to give to the former the absolute control of the government, and yet as the blouses do the most of the fighting, they deniand the most of the govern- ment. Again, the poor and needy, in a revolution, soon find that it brings them no bread, and indeod, so far from adding to ono of their physical comforts, that it rather takes from them, in the loss of credit, capital, and demand for labor, with the consequent falling of wages, that ensues. France presents this condition now. ‘The blouses of Paris have got rid of the king and the court—and Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity pre- vail—but there is no more bread and butter than there ever was,—no more means of living without work—not the realization of a single physical dream. but, on the contrary, less work, less wages of course, and therefore, lesa bread and butter ‘The idle, the disappointed, the hungry, are thus ripe for a new revolution, and as was to be expected. Lamartine and Co. are denounced as “aristocrats,” &e., &e., who have atolen the ad- ministration of the government from the real working- men. Meanwhile, Louis Blanc, from the palace of the Luxemburg, where his parliament of ouvriers have been sitting, and deliberating, frankly says, now, political revolutions give to labor no relief, and the only remedy communism, socialism, Fourierism, or some lower p,—in which day's wages shall be equalized. proper- y annihilated.—and the idle loafer be supported by busy laboring man. Thusrevolution rolls on. ‘The at middling interests of France haye interposed to avert its progress; but if the clubs of Paris mutter, and rumble, and thunder, and if the clubs of 1848 be like the clubs of 1797, some fighting will soon be shooting out from them. If. now. the conservative forces of France ean arrest the French revolution about where it is—with salutary reforms, as their necessity is demonstrated—if the pub- lis opinion of France as manifested in the National Assembly elections, can haye away, and be indepen- dent of the turbulent population of Paris, the revolu- tion may be perfected; but if Louis Blanc, and Ledru Rollin, or Blanqui, or Cabet, through another mob in Paris, are spumed up to the top of the government, a large majority of the French people, we apprehend, will rather turn their eyes upon the restoration of the Duke of Bordeaux, with a consiitutional government, than commit themselves to communism, or any such sort of “regeneration of society." —New York Ezpres ‘Llancous.
