BY THE MAILS, ‘saurnetox, June 22, 1848, Opening of the Ball-—Benatorial Ratification Dis The Presidential ball opened to-day in fine style in the Senate, upon the discussion of the House resolution, regarding the close of the session. Mr. Foote had the honor of breaking the first lance, and he made some home thrusts. He declared his intention of opposing to his utmost the ad- journment of Congress until the whig party had expressed itself upon the Wilmot proviso, and other questions, In this he will be backed by not afew. It is absurd to try the old game of 1840 over again; and as the contest must be on party grounds, the principles of each party must be de- fiaed. AstoGenetal Taylor and General Cass, they are both good men personally, but it can scarcely be expected that either can claim the votes of a party upon merely personal friendship. It is anwsing to hear men, who a few short weeks since denounced General Taylor as being a man_ of no principles, an ignoramus, in fact little better than a fool, now crying him up_as, almost, the embodi- ment of the whig party. ii lews are now his political information is now: extensty: upon any point upon which the shadow of an_un- certainty muy exist, he can be taken on tick. This may all answer, but we are of those who doubt it. It will scarcely do to have the whigs in the North declare General Taylor to be in favor of the Wilmot proviso, of protection, of abolitionism, whiist those of the South, declare another set of virtues and another set of principles as appertain- ing to him. The people may be gulled ; they may allow the love they bear the old general, to blind hen to all this, ‘but, we repeat, we doubt it. aings are not now as they were in *40, there is a ut set of men and a different Wi form, and a mere hurra cannot get over them. Now, we by no means wish to assert that General Cass is unex- eeptioauble, but he has declared his priaciples to rome.extent. True, his ideas of the West- «> improvement bill are of the vaguest, but his ons upon the Wilmot proviso, upon State ts, upon a high or low tarifi, upon a national k, &c., are defined: and it will not do to suppose wrely because General Taylor is silent upon them, vit he takes opposite or the same ground. If the vhigs suoport General Taylor, it will be merely be i Jass’ principles and cause, knowing General ; being opposed to them, they are willing to ad- venture on Taylor, on the ground that they can’t be worse off with him than with Cass. Besides, with Cass, they know they have not much chance of office, with Tay.or they think they have; and as the great aim and object of most ot the patriots of the present day is to have a sop in the dish, they will even permit their scruples to stand aside, and adopt a champion for their party, who has de- clared he knows aothing about it. . The are several points of difficulty in the way of yieldiag General Taylor a cordial’ support. And not the least, is, that he is one of those who have been engaged ina “bloody and inhuman war,” and which it is questionable if he did not, ina measure, precipitate. However, there are some Keen heads in the whig party,and it may be they will succeed in proving that black is white, and that white’s no color at all. However, as we have very little interest in the matter—not seeking office, perhaps because we know it’s no use—we can look on philosophicaily at the contest, not doubting but that the country will surv: n the event of either candidate being elected, and it is more than proba- ble that one or the other will be the unfortunate man, Ome@a. Wasuineton, June 23, 1843. Extradition Bul—-The Barnburners—Declination of Senator Dodge—Botts’s Bet—Gen. Pillow. Mr. J. R. Ingersoll, in the House of Representa- tives, to-day, reported a bill giving full eflect to the treaties of extradition between the United States and foreign nations, a copy of which your report- er has embodied in the proceedings of that branch of Congress. It is particularly interesting, at this time, when an attempt is meditated to rescue Mitchel from the hulks of Bermuda, and when the United States will be required by the British go- vernment to scent out and secure the pocr Irishman who was recently rescued from the law officers in Illinois, after having been eaten for the urpose of having his neck stretched for murder al- feged to have been committed by him in the old country. Instead of giving ‘full effect” to the extradition law, which requires the surrender of fugitives escaping from one nation to another, a large portion of our people are against the princi- ple, and this may be plainly developed at no distant jay. ‘x telegraphic ae from Charley Benton came flashing over the telegraphic wires, to-day, to Mr. Collin, for Senator Dodge, of Wisconsin, who took his seat, for the first time, in the Senate this morning, informing him that he had been se- lected to run as Vice President on the barnburner ticket with Martin Van Buren. Mr. Dodge has de- oie the honor, and returned an answer to this effect. Mr. Botts has offered to bet a thousand dollars that neitier Genera: Taylor or General Cass will be elected President by the people, and that the election mast come into the House. Farther, that the House will not make a choice ; and further still, that General Butler will be the next President of the United States. The way itcan be done is as follows: The constitution provides that “the person having the greatest number of votes for President shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of electors ap- pointed ; and if no person have such majority, then rom the persons having the highest numbers, not exceeding three, on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President.” Each State gives one vote. Jn case the House do not choose a President “before the 4th day of March next falling, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President.” “The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shull be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of elec. tors appointed ; and if no person have a majority, then, from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice President ; a qnorum tor tne purpose shall congist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a iajority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice.” ‘The calculation is, that neither General Butler nor Mr. Fillmore will receive “a majority of the whole number of electors appointed.” The Senate i whelmingly democratic, and between these two gentlemen, there is no doubt that General But- er would be selected. Being elected Vice Presi- dent, he, of course, would discharge the functions of President, as piovided by the constitution. But, for ourselves, we do not think with Mr. Botts, and, therefore, cannot take the bet. Major General Pillow, the real General himself, is said to be in town, from the fact that Major {turbide said to one of the servants of the hotel, “Go to the General’s room, and ask him to send me fifty copies of his defence. I want to send theia to Mexico, for we don’t think much of him there.” Fenrx. Barrimore, June 24, 1848. The Barnburner Nominations.--Democratic Indig- nation.— Mr. Clay and Gen. Taylor, &c. ‘The announcement of the nomination of Messrs. Van Buren and Dodge, for the Presidency and Vice-Presidency, by the Barnburners, caused con- iderable excitement'in our city yesterday, und the old democrats were very severe in ther denun- ciation of “the Northern man with Southern principle: The prompt resignation of Mr. Dodge, by telegra)li, however, gave great satis- faction. It seems that the latter, since his arrival in Washington, has been won over to the soft and gentle embraces of Hunkerdom. There seems to be no longer any doubt that Mr. Clay 1s in no very amiable humor in reference tothe action of the Philadetphta Convention. His grief 1s not that they should hyve failed to nominate him, but that they should have nominated aman whose opinions they knew nothing of, and who had, over and over, declared that he would not be the can- didate of any party for the Presidency, ‘The known views of Mr. Clay on this point prevent srymning uke enthusiasm among the whigs in this city. ey, like him, are holding off for the Gene- ral's letter of acceptance. Notwithstanding all which, however, neither whig nor democrat in this section of the country doubt for a moment the triumphant election of General Taylor. He will carry the South almost by acclamation, and the barnburners will enable his to walk over the a at His North. . earn that one of our most experienced railroad mechanics, R. D.

Considerable dissatisfaction exists between the government here and the free traders, owing to a owing disposition which has manifested itself, in fivor of annexation with your side of line 45, The Board of Trade of this place, recently ad- dressed a memorial to the Queen, demanding the repeal of the English navigation laws, and the free navigation of the St. Lawrence, without which, they added, ‘* New York would become the great repot of tie Canada trade, which would have the ef oi creating a unity of interest, both commercial and political, between Canada and the United States.” - i The government did not relish this pronuncia- mento, and the Hon. Mr. Sullivan, the provincial secretary, was ordered to censure these expres- sions of * the manitest destiny” men of Montreal. The Board ot Trade are, however, not to be trifled with, and they retorted on the secretary, and in their reply considered it their duty to declare to the Queen, lords and commons of Beaient, all what they thought on the result which was to be anticipated from the refusal of the gemand in ques- tion, The feeling here of respect and admiration for your great energy and progress, asa nation, is on the increase every day, and you will ere long have to make room for us in the galaxy of stars and States which adorn your Union. THIRTIEFH CONGRESS. FIRST SESSION. Senater Wasmixetox, June 23, 1848. The day onthe Avenue, and even in the Senate Chamber, has the temperature of the sand beach along the coast of Vera Cruz, Scanty attendance of Sena- tors, Gen. Henry Dodge, (democrat) Senator elect from Wisconsin, made his entry into this august body today. presented his credentials, was qualified, and took his seat. Several hours were expended upon morning busin: including a lengthy indurated discussion of a providing for a judicial examination of claims arising in Florida, from Indian spoliations, and from property destroyed pending the Florida war. THE ONRGON MiLL—THE WILMOT PROVISO. On motion of Mr. Buiaut, 27 to 18, the Senate took up the Oregon bill and its pending amendments. The Dill provides a terrftorial government for the said ter- ritory in all its minutie of functions and functiona- ries. The twelfth section is as follows Sec. 12 And be it further enacted, Thut the inhabitants of the said territory shall be entitled to all the rights, privileges, aud immunities heretofore granted and secured to the Territory of Jowa und to its inhabitants; and the existing laws now in force in the territory of Oregon, under the authority of the provisional government established by the people theroof, shall outiaue to be valid and operative therein, so far as the same be not incompatible with the provisions of this act; subject, nevertheless, to Ue altered, modified, or repraled, by the governor and legislative assembly of the said territory of Oregon; and the laws of the United States are hereby extended over and declared to be in force in said terri tory, so far as the same, or any provision thereof, may be app cable, The difficulty about this 12th section is, that in adopt- ing the laws of lowa territory for the territory of Ore- gon. you adopt the Wilmot proviso, or in other words, de slavery from the territory. The subject has dy elicited considerable debate, and several amend- ments, the fullest of which is that by Mr. Foote to the 12th section, to wit :— Amendment proposed by Mr. Foote to the bill (S. blish the terrivorial government of Oregon. Sa e4. After the word “inhabitants” ingert the follow- I not be subject to the restriction expressed in the sixth article of the compact contained in the ordinance of seven- teen hundred and eighty-seven, for the government of the territory oj the United States northwestof the river Ohio. ‘his amendment directly excludes the Wilmot Pro- viso, and leaves the Oregon territory open in reference to the introduction ef slavery. After some conversation, Mr. Jerrenson Davis and Mr. Bapcen spoke in ex- planation of the nullity of the twelfth section with this amendment, and of the inutility of the twelfth section itself Mr. Jerrenson Davis asked if the inhibition of slave- ry in the territory of lowa. by this 12th section, did not apply to Oregon without this amendment. Mr. Baneer did not think it did. Mr. R. Jounson thought that slavery by this bill would be excluded, and he said for the reagon that it was ex- cluded now in lowa. id also by a local law in Oregon. Well, now, that being the condition in which the ques- tion stands, the 12th section says, “ That the inhabi- tants of the said territory shall be entitled to all the rights, privileges and immunities heretofore secured to the territory of owa end its inhabitants.” They have no privileges—no rights, except those which we are to give, and if we declare they are to be nogreater than lowa, and the territory of Towa has no right to establish slavery, then we Prevent Oregon from establishing sla- very in that territory. There is nothing in the act ex- cluding slavery; but you say that their acts heretofore made shall stand, aud by this you state that the ex- clusion of slavery was right. and must stand. You | prevent southern men from going with their property, | becaure you sanction the local laws of Oregon, by | which the slaves will be free. You exclude slavery just as effectually as if you introduced the Wilmot proviso. lam surprised that the Senator from Mississippi (Mr. J Davis), whom I know has a holy horror of the Wilmot proviso, should not have seen the object of the amend- ment offered by the Senator from North Carolina (Mr. Badger). What is contemplated by the amendment. isit to sanction slavery ? If it is. it is contrary to the provisions of the bill, Is it to prohibit slavery? It cannot be said to do that, Then it does nothing. It must have one of the three bearings, If the gentle- men from the north mean to exclude slavery by the bill. say so. If the gentlemen of the south mean to es- tablish slavery. say so. But do not pasé a bill, of which the meaning is indefinite. I wish in conclusion to say. that if (he bill is passed as it is now, you pass the Wilmot proviso to all intents and purpose. Mr. Foot» had understood it was the wish to discuss the bill on its general merits. He meant to yote against the 12th section at allevents; but he was per- fectly willing that the amendment should be with- drawn. so as to let the discussion comeon the motion of the Senator from Georgia. Mr. Baverr contended that his amendment was absolutely necessary. in order to explain the real meaning of the bill. It seemed to him to be not at all out of place, if you do not mean to put in force the resolution, to say #0. The establishment of slavery or ita abrogation depends solely upon the action of the local legislatures—if the power is granted to t Congress—for he contended Congress had the up and unlimited power. He did not care what action the States might take, that was their affair—they had a’ right to establish their own municipal laws, of which vither the prohibition of slavery or the prohibition of any goods are legitimate parts. He had no great so- licitude about it, and if the Senator from M seiseippi were allowed to withdraw his amendment, he would move to strike out the 12th section altogether. The question was then put. shall the Senator from Mississippi have leave to withdraw his amendment, and decided iu the affirmative. Mr. Bernixw was pleased that the amendments were withdrawn, as he preferred the question to be decided on its own merits, unconnected with any extraneous circumstances, Mr. Burien.—Yes, that's right. Mr. Brrniew took the ground that we had no right to passa bill to exclude any portion of the citi- zens of the Union. He regretted and rogretted ex- tremely that tho subject had been introduced. He now understeod the question to be on the resolution to strike out the 12th section, untrammelled by any amendments, Mr. R. Jonson did not consider that the people of Oregon had any rights. privileges, and immunities un- til the Congress of the United States granted them. You are about to give the people of Oregon the same rights as were conferred upon the people of the terrl- tory of Wisconsin, Pass the bill aa itstands, and the moment a southern man goes to Oregon, he will have to leave his slaves behind. If this section stands. you 4s effectually exclude slavery as if you pass the Wil- mot proviso, Mr. Dix was about to address the Senate upon the subject, but gave way to a motion to adjourn. Mr. Jerrenson Davis submitted the following amend- ment to the 12th section, “ Provided that nothing con- tained in this act shall authorize the prokibition of do- mestic slavery in the said territory, while the same re- mains a territory of the United States... The amend- ment was ordered to be printed. Mr. Banorn suggested a verbal amendment, striking out a word or two, and inserting about as many as struck out, not affecting the merits of the bil Mr. Hats thought it would be better to have a direct vote upon his amendment. to wit, the ordinance of 1787. the Wilmot proviso. That was already printed The bill waa then passed by informally; aud, after some unimportant private business, the Senate ad- journed. House of Representatives. Wasninaton, June 23, 1848, INTERSAL IMPROVEMENTS—THE VETO—TONNAGE DU Tins.

Mr. Huxt moved the previous question on the pas- sage of the resolutions. Mr. Cons, of Geo rose to a point of order, Th House suspended th 3 for the reception of reports which would not give rise to debate. The resolutions involve great and important principies, and the House were calied upon to vote without having an opportunity to consider then. They cannot be received, as they will give rise to debate. The Sreaker was understood to say that the House had a right to entertain the motion. An appeal was taken from the decision of the chair; and finaily, The resolutions were laid over for the present UNIFORM RATE OF POSTAGE. Mr. Goccrx, fom the Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads, reported a biil to establish a uniferm rate of postago—five cents, any distance, for letters or packages weighing half an ounce, or under. He said that he would be glad if tha House would proseed to pass the bill. But objection was made, and it, was re- ferred to the Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, Mr. J. R.

Mr. Haratsow offered a resolution, which was agroed to, instructing the Committee on the Judiciary to en- quire what further legislation is necessary to provide. more effectually against frauds on soldiers of the war with Mexico, and secure to them the lands to which they are entitled; and that the Committee report by bill or otherwi THE CORNER STONE. The Sreaker laid before the House an invitation to join in the ceremonies of laying the corner-stone of the monument to Washington, on the 4th of July en- suing ; which was accepted. ‘The’ House went into Committee on the private calendar, and after some time spent therein it rose. CAVE JOHNSON’S ECONOMY—THE SOUTHERN MAIL The House took up the joint resolution of the Senate, authorisivg the renewal of the contract with the Steam- boat and Railroad Company, for carrying the great Southern mail, via the Potomac river and Richmond. Mr. Gocain said that a renewal of tho contract was highly important, not only to the people of the South, but to the people of the whole Union, It has received the sanction of the Senate, after full deliberation, aud by an overwhelming majority. The resolution proposes to restore the old arrangement for carrying the mail between this city and Richmond. At present, it ix sent to Baltimore, thence down the bay up James river, to Richmond, a distance of four huudred miles, instead of being conveyed directly to Richmend, from Washington, a distance of only a hundred and thirty ailes, Not only is there a delay of aday in the pre- sent arrangement, but there is an increased cost of $1500 or $2000. The Postmaster-gencral asserted that he had saved $575 and some odd cents; but so far from this, the additional expence is that which has been stated. The old arrangement had existed from 1843 to the commencement of the present session ‘The Postmaster General no doubt acted conscientious- ly, in his interpretation of the law, but he was wrong. Mr. Goggin caused a letter from Mr. Falls, agent of the team Packet Company, ts be read, in which he says, that the eontract with that company will be sur- rendered, if it be the pleasure of Congress.” Daring the month of December last, in twenty days, there were, by the present arrangement, nine failures of the mail, caused by the boat rnun'o: szround. rain and snow storms, and fogs. He dvada list of the failures, which wore numerous. In consequence of the slow. ness and uncertainty of the mail, private expresses have been established, depriving the department of its revenues, and putting the money into the pockets of private individuals. Mr. Bow obtained the floor. motion to adjourn, which, three o'clock, prevaile He gave way for a at twenty minutes past Later from Mexico. (From the N. 0. Picayune—Extra, June 15.) The United States transport steamship Portland arrived last night from Vera Cruz, having sailed thence on the 9th in: The Portland brought over about 350 of the 13th Infantry with some conva- lescents, discharged teamsters, Xe. &e. The re- mainder of that regiment had embarked on the ship Rhode Island and was ready for sea when the Portland left. Lieut. Gardiner, 7th Infantry, bearer of despatches from Mexico and of the ratified y, came passenger on the Portland. He is son of Colonel Gardiner of Washington, and has dis- tinguished himself in many of the battles in Mexico. There was a late arrival at Vera Cruz from Yuca- tan bringing bad news from that country. ‘The Orizaba garrison, about 1,000 strong, under Colonel Bankhead, and consisting of the 13th Infantry and Alabama battalion, arrived at Vera Cruz on the morning of the 8th inst., and commenced embark- ing the same day. _ Tne Alabama battalion sailed on the 9th in the brigs or schooners Heroine, Mo- pang, and Massachusetts, for Mopile. Acts of per- secution had already been committed by Mexicans against such of those people or foreigners who had tolerated the Americans, atall in those places which had been evacuated by our troops. Many of the inhabitants showed their regrets at parting with the Americans. Mr. Devillier, editor of the Free American came passenger in the Portland, having been ordered to leave by Gen. Smith for an article published in his paper of the 8th inst., considered by all who know the facts of the case to be very incorrect, to say the least, and doing great injustice toa distingnished officer. Capt. Lee, engineers, and other distinguisned members of Gen. Scott's staff, also came passengers on the Portland, and Wm. Vanderlinden, former Surgeon General of the Mexican army, who seeks America 2s an asylum. Lieut. Bedford, 14th Infantry, died on the passage, and was buried at sea. The Portland passed in the river about Fort St. Philip, a ship load of convalescents from the Jalapa hospitals, which left Vera Croz about ten days since. General Patterson’s division was expected in Vera Cruz on Monday, the 12th inst., and Gen. Mar- shall’s on the following day. A letter from Mex- 1c0, dated the 3d inst., says that Gen. Kearny’s di- vision was ordered to leave Mexico on Tuesday, the 6th inst., and Gen. Worth’s on Wednesday, the 7th. The Michigan regiment was shortly ex- pected at Vera Cruz from Cordova. The U. 8. Commissioners, Messrs. Sevier and Cliflord, were expected in the city of Mexicoon the 8d inst. Mr. Sevier returns home with Gen. Butler, ‘The following are the general orders issued by the General-in-Chief of the army in Mexico, an- nouncing peace and ordering the evacuation of the country ;— teria or ne atthe ane ty Of peace: just and honorable to both nations, has been duly ratified. It now becomes the pleasing duty of the commanding General to restore toa grateful country the gallant army which bas so nobly sustained her thts and added to her renown. The homeward march will be at once commenced, and it is expected that the most perfect order and discipline will be observed. Ample supplies of all kinds will be furnished at convs nient posts, and there will be no excuse for the slight- est depredations, whica will be totally at war with the existing relations between the two countries.

First division of volunteers, commanded by Major General Patterson, 8d. Second division of volunteers, commanded by Brig. General Marshall, 4th. Third division of regular troops, commanded by Col. Trousdale, the senior colo- nel on duty with it, except the 9th infantry, at Pach- uca, which, with the detachments at that place, will march via Opan and Perote Sth. Second div.sion of regular troops, commanded by Brig. Gen. Kearny.— 6th, First division of regular trosps, commanded b; Brevet Major Gen. Worth. Each division will have at | signed to it at least one company of horse, The dra- goons not assigned to divisions will receive special or- ders for their march, ‘The chiefs of the several depart- ments, when not otherwise specially instreeted, will accompany the head-quarters. lil, The volunteer divisions on the march will be joined by such troops as may belong to them, at the ‘posts intermediate between the city of Mexico and Ja- lapa, which will leave sufficient guards of regular troops at Rio Frio, Puebla and Perote, to protect the supplies until the rear division comes up, when these small garrisons will march with said division—all attached men, including recruits, will in like manner join their respective regiments on the march. IV. Ample supplies of forage and subsistence have been placed in depot at Puebla, Peroto and Jalapa, fo- rage at Rio Frio ; tents and shoes, it is expected, will he at Puebla, from which the troops requiring such ar- ticles can be supplied. V. All ordnance and ordnance stores, and other pub- lie property in the city of Mexico, Chapultepec, Perote, Vera Cruz, and elsewhere, which reverts to the Mexi- can government under the 4th article of the treaty of peace, will be delivered to agents of said government duly authorised to receive the same VI. Such ordnance and ordnance stores, quarter- master’s stores and subsistence, not required for the troops, and which cannot be transported, or which on other accounts it may be advisable to dispose of, will be sold under the orders of the chiefs of the ordnance, quarter-master’s and subsistence departments respect- ively. Vii. Should it become necessary to transport any surplus stores or sp: the wagon train fer the pur- pose will proceed to Jalapa with the first division of regulars. VIII. Prisoners under sentence of death, or to be dishonorably discharged at the expiration of the war, will accompany their respective regiments. x. All the volunteers troops will be transported to New Orleans, there to be mustered out of the service, and paid by officers specially assigned to that duty— except the troops from Georgia and South Carolina, which will be sent to Mobile for the like purpose. Major Gen. Patterson's division will proceed to ad- ance. Should other instructions not be received from the War Department, all the regular troops, in the order laid down in paragraph 2, will be trans- ported to New Orleans, there to receive further orders from Washington. No troops will leave the camp from Jalapa until notified by Brevet Brig. Gen. Smith, commanding at Vera Cruz, that vessels are prepared for them. X. Owing to the lateness of tho season, and the dif- ficulty of speedily procuring transportation for a large army, it may be impossible to transport horses. ‘Troops; must first be embarked. Officers entitled to forage—except general officers, who are restricted to two horses may take one horse each, if it can be done without incommoding the troops. Battery horses will next be transported, then dragoon horses and horses of volunteers, if the number of vessels will admit of them. XI. The commanding officer at Tampico will order the evacuation of that place, acsording to the princi- ples laid down in this order. By order of Major Gen. Butter : L. THOMAS, Asst. Adjt. Gen.

MORE OF THE INDIAN TROUBLES IN YUCATAN, Vera Crvz, June 9ta, 1848.—By the French brig of war Pylade, I received letters from Campeachy, and other parts of Yucatan, up to the 4th inst. The distressing accounts from those quarters will deep- ly engage the sympatnies of all persons who feel inclined to protect the cause of civilization and humanity. ifs the present stage of this war of castes it 1s useless to investigate the causes and the origin of it, let us only look to the fact, that our white brethren are massacred by overwhelm- ing numbers of Indian savages, and that even where no resistance 1s offered, those savage fiends destroy the lives of women, children, of the sick and old, nor can the ministers ef our Saviour escape from the ruthless foe. oii Sull [ beg to assert that the commissioner of Yucatan, Mr. Sierra, stated but the full trath when he published the fact that the Indians it Yucatan held equal social and political mghts with the white population; and that the government had continuously endeavored to improve their condi- tion by erecting schools, ete. During my frequent stays there, and when travelling amongst them, I often compared the position of those Indians to that of our peasants and laborers in Europe, and in most respects I concluded that their lot in lite was by far an easier one than that of our European brethren, Whenever I saw distress, I could clear- ly trace it to the proverbial Indian improvidence, and to their intemperance and superstition. Stilla traveller in Yucatan would but a year ago be struck by the general features of the country, the fine, well laid out villages, and the healthy and clean appearance of the inhabitants. The insur- rection since August last has laid waste the whole country, and towns and villages are now but a heap of ruins and embers. The town of Yzamal, about fifteen leagues from Merida, has lately been taken, and it is supposed that many hundred lives were lost. In_ one day, about a fortnight before the taking of Yzamal, 11,000 persons, mostly women and children, entered, fugitives from their dwellings, into the city of Merida, saving but their lives for a shorttime. All accounts and letters from highly respectable parties, which I received during those days, coincided in the opinion that without, prompt aid from the United States, the whites will be obliged to abandon even the few. strongholds, _ consequence of the want of provisions, which the poor people were obliged to leave behind. Ticul, another large place near Merida, is likewise in the hands of the Indians, and these will soon surround Merida, a place with neither natural nor artificial defences. The prophecy of Chilam Balaam, an Indian sorcerer at the time of the conquest, that at the regeneration of the Indian race, they would wade ancle deep in the blood of their conquerors at the plaza of Merida, may frightfully become true, if no early and immediate aid 1s given to Merida. This aid, 500 to 1000 armed men, with some few light guns and ammunition should at once proceed to Sisal, and in one and a half day’s marching they will be able to rescue the capital nd help our unfortunate brethren in the conflict. The latter being reduced in mumbers, scant of arms, ammunition, and money, are discouraged in the extreme. A small, but timely aid, will prove the only means of salvation. Five hundred to a thousand well armed Americans can overrun the country in spite of the numberless Indians, as these latter are imperfectly armed and under no discipline whatever, Some cases have happened where fifty men made good the fight against six thousand men. The town of Campeachy is goin, to be surrounded by Indians, who had | appeares already in the neighborhood thereof. Merida is the point most exposed, containing, with fugitives, now about 60,000 persons, most of them unable to carry arms. I shall give you more detailed news shortly, Any aid carried to Yucatan will be ac- knowledged with gratitude. Your friends will save the lives and the homes of about 100,000 des- titute, defenceless, and harmless Christians. The Constituent Assemblies of the European Continent. [From the London Chronicle, May 31.} Two constituent assemblies (we ought perhaps to say three, for the powers and duties of the Ba- varian Chambers bring them, in fact, within the same category) are at present sitting in Germany. Berlin and Frankfort are the centres of circles, not, as formerly, intersecting each other, but the greater portion of which now includes the whole area of the lesser. At each is assembled a nu- merous body of men belonging to all classes, from the highest, to the very lowest, clothed with large and indefinite powers, charged with a task of con- summate importance, which requires alike bold- ness of conception and delicacy of execution, and elected at a moment of unprecedented excitement, discontent, disunion, and commercial distress, on a basis approaching very near to that of universal suffrage. One has to construct a constitution for Germany, the other for Prussia. It is m_ the dis- cretion of the former, without exceeding the limits assignetl to its competency, to curtail the Toei? sha the ts and the mlnriven. 2 which sets each ut work, ciust decide between them. To obviate the possibility of such a catas- trophe, it isin contemplation to make one body formally subordinate to the other. M. Raveaux, the member for Cologne, proposes that a delegate returned for both assemblies should be declared capable of sitting in both at once. But, as the omnipotence of even a German Parliament does not extend to conferring upon a deputy the power of being corporeally present at the same moment at Frankfort and Berlin, it 1s probable that the for- tunate individuals upon whom their constituents have bestowed this mark of confidence will absent themselves from the local, for the sake of playing apartin the central legislature. Another propo- sition aims at pronouncing the resolutions, come to at the local centre of legislation, null and void, so far as they may be at variance with the decrees promulgated at Frankfort, Whicn of the two assemblies is the most sig nally unfit tor the duties it has undertaken it might be ditlicult to say. The members of the German Parliament are probably superior, as # body, in education and intelligence, to the motley crowd who filled last Mouday week the White Hali of the palace of Berlin; but they have a harder task to accomplish, At the same time that they frame a coustituuon, they must create a nation, The ground on which they stand threatens every mo- ment to give way, under their feet. The eagerly expressed degire for union aud consolidation which was developed, if not produced, by the suddea ex- citement generated by the Freneia revolution, forms at once the unsteady platform ov which they are mounted, and the foundation whereon they have to build a structure so vast and ponderous a3 a national constitution for Germany. Symptoms of instubility have already made themselves appu- rent. Duhlmann’s splendid scheme has found lit- tle support in public opinion, and 1s vanishing into thin air; and although, in so changeable an atmosphere, we may probably see its bright colours and symmetrical proportions reproduced once and again, there seems ltttle prospect, as yet, of its attaining a permanent existence. Its recep- tion affords some test of the strength of the feeung which its framers intended it to satisfy. The theoretical amalgamationists, who have allowed the glittering day-dream of a great German Em- pire to take possession of their minds, and the ultra-Liberals, whose aim it has been to melt down and annihilate every vestige of the old, monarch- ical and territorial system in one great centralized commonwealth, are like to find the obstacles which natute, habit, and tradition oppose to their designs too ditficult for them to surmount. The vision which has been conjured up has proved less attractive, the universal solvent less potent than the projectors had imagined. The German Par- jiameant, if it succeeds in retaining any portion of the respect which the nation in general are willing to pay, and the influence which they are ready to concede to it—if, in spite of the heterogenous nature ofits materials, it escapes the contempt due to dowa- night ineapacity—will probably find it prudent to attempt nothing higher than such a development of the federal princ.ple as will satisfy the require- ments of individual States, remedy existing griev- ances, unfetter internal traffic, remove vexatious restrictions on migration and inter-communica- tion, improve the military organization of the con- fe cy, and supply some simple mechanism for regulating its foreign policy. If it tails in these objects, we should not be surprised to see the chaos in which Germany is plunged, shaping itself into changes of a more questionable character— pethaps giving birth to two or three confederations instead of one. The democratie spirit which has taken root in Baden and Hesse, has not yet had its swing; the ferment excited within the sinall States of Central and Southern Germany will hardly spend itself within their narrow boundaries ; and the Rhenish provinces of Prussia sit too loosely to the old dominions of the house of Hohenzollern not to justify an apprehension that any serious con- vulsion, aflecting the districts in their neighbor- hood, might snap the tie, and throw them into open, perhaps successful rebellion. No such hazards as these appear to surround the path on which the Prussian Diet 1s entering. Its course seems tolerably simple. A constitution on a model almost as democratic as can be made com- patible with the outward form of a monarchy, is about to be proposed to it, and will, in all proba- bility, be adopted, in substance, without much he- sitation, The feelin out of doors, though strongly in favor of order aad government, has not as yet taken any shspe tending to the formation of an independent political party. The intellectual ind literary activi'y of the country is all on the side of the present administration, whose members battled through the | ion at the head of an opposition, numbering in tts ranks the principal speakers, writers, and thinkers of Northern Ger- many. Even the personal attachment which is still entertained towards Frederick William in Berlin, and in the hereditary States of Branden- bargh, is enlisted in the sane cause: the king has spoken out in favor of the constitution, with a warmth which has astonished, his most familiar friends, and the people believe him to be in earnest. ‘The ministry, though accused (not altogether un- justly) of weakness and inactivity in the exercise of their administrative functions, are still popular; and their position in the legislature is greatl strengthened by the disposition which eet greene al classes of society, except the lowest, to stand by those who are in possession of the helm. So far as regards the parliamentary campaign, there seems little reason to anticipate stormy or obstructive session. The dangers which threaten the public tranquillity are of another and a more pressing description. The fear of émeutes and street riots has not yet subsided, and the number of unemployed operatives augments daily, render- ing the probability of a rising more and more appalling. The citizens of Berlin are highly exas- perated, and no wonder. Put a musket into the hands of a peaceful shopkeeper—tell him that there is nobody but himself to protect his family and his goods from the ill-looking ruffian at the corner of the street, who threatons to plunder his till and burn his house over his head—keep him pacing be- fore his door for two or three weeks in hourly dread of an attack—and you will make him full as dangerous to the public ‘peace as the assailant of whom he stands in fear. Sach, if we can realize it, is the present aspect of quict, domestic, loyal, orderly, old-fashioned, yet withal intellectual, Prussia, turned on a sudden into an arena for the strife of political parties, if not for the far more terrible struggle between po- verty and wealth. Sharp and painful indeed is the sudden development of those political energies which the king flattered himself that his own hand could train to umely ripeness, through long years of tranquil and equable growth ; and sharper and more paintul still may be the checks which that development may yet encounter, before it shall have expanded into full-blown maturity. ee ee Tims TeLLIGK ACS Sa TO COMMANDERS OF VESSELS.
