¥ INTELLIGENCE BY THE MAILS, Wasnineron, Sept. 29, 1848, Tricks of Pension Agents—Bounty Lands, §c. &¢. Two “general agents,” as they are termed, named Stettinius and Phillips, have been held to bail, to answer a charge of forging the names of two soldiers to a paper which purported to be a tranefer of a pounty land warrant. The soldiers deny having made ny transfer to M@srs. Stet tinjus and Phillips. ‘Thas case is to be investigated to-morrow, and we will send youa full report Wuhout giving any opinion as to the merits of the present cue, it is undoubtedly a fact that great frauds have been commatted on the poor soldiers generally; and unless a stop is put to it, there is every reason to believe that the ovly persons who will receive any benetit trom the bounties will be upprineipled specu!.iors. Some months ago, we ave a descripuon of the fravds practised by the New Orleans hawks: but that was merely the erude beginning of a scheme which has ‘since been impioved upon, to the enriching of many an “agent.” By the way, it is very possible some of the States may shortly have complaints to make about the bounty land scheme It certainly is a very liberal plan, and not more liberal than just towards our gallant soldieis; but itis very probable that, had the Western States remr mbered thut this liberal act would press mere upon them than upon their Eastern brethren, they might have endeavored to devise some system: more equal in its action Every State is entitled to receive five per cent of the net proceeds of the sales of wild land within its limits, which is payable by requisition on the United States ueasury, and amounts to a very. considerable sum. This will be lost in the case of bounty lands; and as they will be located, of course, in Western Stutes altogether, those States will be taxed, in effvet, five per cent upon each wariant, whilst the other States will net be at all interested. 3 There is to be a grand Taylor and Fillmore meeting here on Friday evening. The Herald wall be duly represented. OnEG@a. Ba.rimore, Sept. 21, 1348. The 1.0.0. F. Grand Lodge—The New York Difjiculty—Reports of the Committee om Creden- tials--.4 Select Committee Appomnted, $c. The New York difficulty in the Grand Lodge of [ ©. of O. F., yet remains unsettled, the matter now being in the hands of a select com- smittee. As the ection on the question so far, may be of interest to the brethren of the order in New York, I will furmsh you with such authentic infor” mation as has come tomy knowledge. The first ac- tion of the Lodge was. to name a committee on creden- tials, consisting of Mersrs. Parmenter, of Massachu- setts; Ramedell, of an; and Sessford, of the Districtof Columbia. This committee, after due con- sideration, reported the names of all thoze delegates whose credentials were perfect—-und then go on to state that they have also in their hands credentials certify- ing the clection of P. G. Ja Jolin G, Davies, whose certificates are signed by James R. Taylor, as Gravd Muste:s and Benjamin J. Pentz, as Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of New York; and aloof P.G.Jobn W. Winelle, wh: se certificat is signed by D. P Bernard. as Grand Master, and W. H. H. Preli, as Graud Secretary. The seal of the Gravd Lodge of New York. so faras the committee can distinguirh, is upon ail the certificates. The ccmmittce have also received certificates of election, of the following gentlemen from the Grand Encampment of New York: P. C. P. Joseph D. Stewart, P. C. P. Wm, W. Dibbive, whose certificates are signed by Theddeus Davids. #s Grand Patriarch, and John J. Davies, ss Grand scribe; aud of P. C. P Hiram Powell, avd 'P. C, P. David D. Egan, whose certificates are signed by Ireucbari as Grand Patriarch, and John L, Van tirkerck. as Grand Scribe. The impres- sions of the seals of the Grand Encampment, the com- mittee add, are upon all the certificates, as far as they can distipgvish The committee,in determining as to who of these claim- ante are entitied to seats state tbat they are governed by therule that thry ate bound to take official notice of such Grand Bodies ‘tn the local jurisdictions as have been duly recognised by the Grand Lodge of the United States and its officers, and such evidence of that re- cognition #6 is found vpon its records and its archives, a8 prima facie covelusion of the authenticity and genuipenees of the commuvications which appear te emanate from them ‘They therefore, with this guide, report the following represeutatives as b. Ye certificates, and as entitled to seats in the Grand Lodge :— Grand Lodge of New York.—P. G. James W. Hale, P. G Jobn J. Davies. Grand Encompment of New York —P. C. P. Joseph D. Stewart, P. C. P. Wiliam W. Dibblee. This report is signed by Wm. E. Parmenter and John Sessford, Jr., two of the three members of the com- ‘Lhe third member of the committee, however, Norton R. Ramedeil, of Michigan, has also made s minority report.in which be rays that, in his opinion, the evi- dence before the committee was and is not sufficient to authorize the committee to decide upon the con- ficting claims of brovhers from the State of New York, whese certificates were before them. And although the committee might: perhaps. take official notice of the existence of the Grand Lodge and Grand Encamp- ment in that State. they could vot take sach notice of their officers. ‘The evidence of the genuineness of the severn] certificates before your committee, depends, in the estimation of the undersigned, solely on the im- pression of the real of the lodge or encampment from which they purport to come, and beyond which your committee could not look, witout further authority from this K. W. body The impression of the same geal ison ench of the Fucampment certificates, aud the rawe in the cu-e of the G Lodge certificates, The undersigned asks icave, therefore, to refer said certificates back to this lodge, without further action of the committee thereon. und recommends that the matter be referred to @ tclect committee of five mem- 18. eater considerable discussion, the recommendations of Mr. Remsdeli, in hix minority report, were adopted by the body, und the whole matter referred to a select committee, consisting of Messrs Parmenter. of ) churetts; Baker, of Pennsylvania; Marshall, of - tucky; Ramedell, of \ igan; and Smith, of Maine, in whore hands it now ®, and from whom a report is expected this morning. It is a most troublesome ques- tien to dispore of, nearly as difficult as that of the barnburners in the democratic convention. New York is beginning to be a very troublesome State.

To the letter containing these queries, General Cass replied as follows :— “Unitep Statxs Horen, May 21,1848, “Dear tir—I did not receive your esteemed favor un- til yesterday, and I have been so much occupied that I could not answer it before. “T bad supposed that my sentiments, upon the sub- ject to which you refer, were fully undoratood by my Southern friends; but as you seem to desire informa- tion, Lenctose you my Nicholson letter, which contains all that I have to say vpon the subject, “Respectfully yours, LEWIS CASS. “To R.

Robert Dale Owen, whois at the head of the Cass electoral ticket in Indiana, is stumping the State in favor of that ticket. In an able speech, at Indian- opolis, on the 12th inst , he gave his opinions on slave- ry in the territories. He treats the question as a legal One, and argues that there js no slavery at present in New Mexico and California, and that the Supreme Court, whenever the question comes before them, must ‘Fo decide—as slavery cannot be introduced into those territories without the consent of the people. Mr. Owen thinks that the slaveholders will not risk teking their rlaves there ; and the object proposed by the free coil men will be fully attained. ‘A democratic festival, and free barbecue, is to be held at Indianapolis, in honor of the Indiana volun- teers returned from Mexico, on the 4th of October.

The rules having been read, the President addressed the knights in language of fervid eloquence, appealing to their gallantry and inepiring them to deeds of chivalry and renown. ‘They were then marshalled to their posts, wheroupon the herald proclaimed aloud the name of each knight, as bis horse dashed off at the tap of the drum. ‘The following is the order in which the knights rode, and their success at each tilt :— 1. 2. 3. ke of the Black Sash, touched failed ring Do lo do Tuckahoe,’ failed touched * Do do Mellow Horn, touched ring touched Do do Turkish Orderfailed ‘ring touched Do do White Plume, failed ring touched Do do Turkey Plume, ring touched touch-d Do do Red Sash, ring ring touched Do do Chesterfield, ring touched ring Do do Dover, ring ring ring Do do Black Plume, ring touched ring Do do Forrest, touched failed ring Do do Richmond, touched failed ring * Horse unmanageable, The Knight of Dover, (Mr. Sneed.) having taken the ring three times in succeasion, was proclaimed victor— and was entitied to the distinction of selecting the Queen of Love and Beauty. There being a tie between the Knights of the Red Sach, of Chesterfield, and of the Black Plame, they had to make another trial of their skill, when the Knight of the Red Sash, won the distinction of selecting the first Maid of Honor, the Knight of the Black Plume, the eecond, und the Knight of Chesterfield. the third, QUEEN OF LOVE AND BEAUTY. ‘The jousting having terminated as above, without the stightert accident to mar the brilliancy and beauty of the scene, the next thing in order came the crown- ing of a Queen of Love and Beauty, and the selection of her Maids of Honor, ‘The victors, Under the escort of their brother knights end the warshals, were drawn up in line, with lances at rest, in front of the assembled grace and beauty, which adorned the piazza ot the hotel, when the Knight of Dover proclaimed, through the President, Mits Helen Burwell of Chesterfield, as Queen of Love and Beauty. The royal wreath was then handed to the President, from the point of the victor’s lance, whercuyon the presiding officer, Mr. Cashie, addressed her Majesty in appropriate language, as he placed the crown upon her fair brow.

From Matamonas.—The Matamoras Flag, 0 the 2d inst., contains the follewing items:— ‘A new paper, in the Spanish language. to be devoted to the cause of Centraliem, if we are rightly informed, is shortly to be issued from the Mexican printing office in this place. Capt. Wright, of the steamer Tom Kirkman, informs us, that on Monday last, two hundred government troops established their quarters at Mier, and will gar- riton thet town. Ali the towns on the Rio Grande will shortly be occupied. Mr. Winfield, who had been reported murdered, had returned to Matamoras, It was his partner, Mr. Chas. Carroll, who was murdered and robbed by two Mexi- cans, whom he had hired to accompany and protect him ona journey fr'm Linares to Matemoras. Before Jeaving Linares, Mr. Carroll wrote Mr. Winfield, who was at the town of Galliana, across the mountains, to come on to Linares, and take possession of their goods, avd informing him that in his trunk he would find a letter giving further instructions concerning their business. On his way to this latter place, Mr. W. was beset by robbers, but managed to escay riving there, and learning the fate of ut once went to the Aleaide, ment ertablirhing the partnership between him and Mr. C.,and demanded possersion of his effects. This much, however, the sage and just Aicalde not only a efused to do, but learning that Mr. W. had several hundred dolars belonging to the firm, he pre- sented him the alternative of placing the money in his hands, or going to prison. Mr. W., after exhaurting irgument with the Mexican function- | ary, threw himself onthe defensive, and refused compliance. Throvgh the intervention of a few friends, he made good bis way from the town, but with- out the goods, trunk, or horse of bis partner, in ali of which he had an interest’ Ramon Monyose, instead of Ramon Lara, was the name of one of the Mexicans who assisted in the murder. They are both confined in prisop, and have confessed that #ix others were as- sociated with them Four hundred dollars of the money taken from Mr. Carroll have been recovered, But little hope can be indulged that they will meet the puwi+bment their crime so justly merits, Low, in- a must be the standard of justice and humanity among ® people where the commission of murder and robbery are so frequent, and towards which the autho- rilies manifest such an indifference. It was hoped, that with the war would have died eway the irrational Resor agaivet Americans; but it seems the feelin, as Hot yet lost any of ite strength. Mexicans shoul think of these things. and their administrators of the law should be vigilant and active in visiting its penal- ties uponfall who bave the temmrity to violate its pro- visions. A moment's reflection would suffice to con- vince them of tue wisdom of forgetting old differ- ences, and cultivating friendly relations with our people. There will aiwsys be constant intercourse between the two countries along the frontier, and when provoked to retaliate injuries, they will find we are ab overmatch for them ; and as in all such caser, the innocent will trequeotly suffer for the wickedness of the guilty.

The investigation of the case of Ch: and Henry Watson, captain and second mate of the ebip Albawra, charged with the murder of Albert Bur- gess, one of the crew of eaid ship, came on this morn- ing, before the United States District Judge. His houor read the warrant containing the charge, and asked the accuted if they were ready to proceed with | their examination, and if they had any declaration to make uch declaration, he taid, would be received, but not exacted, as it might be wed against them hereafter; they had’better advise with their counsel be- fore they made any. The United States District At- torney suggested that it on Fed hbereafcer be used against the prisoners, and that perhaps it would be as well not, for the present, to muke any.

Maroarer Nicuons, the wife of Rebert, testified to the facts, and that a portion ofthe property was found on ae which was corroborated. There being no defence, the prisoner was found guilty of grand larceny ; but was acquitted of the charge of burglary. Prisoner was remanded for sen- Dee. Trial of Pickpockets for Grand Iarceny.—Edward Curtis, with whom was impleaded Robert Johnson and James Williams, as accomplices, were put forward on trial. charged with picking the pockets of Mr. Natha- niel Katon, of this city, on the 23d of August last. The three prisoners were well dressed, and Williams would be taken as a man of fashion on Broadway-such as is generally the case with members of the craft, known as © knucks,”’ or“ light fingered gentry.” Natnanien Eaton testified—I live at No. 2 Fletcher st.

Coir, who bad been with last wit ness on th@occasion in question, in the vicinity of the Seventh Ward Bank, corroborated the facts intro- duced in his testimony. Ceunrel for prisoner here stated that he would de- cline addressing the jury, inasmuch aa proof was de- fective, and he did not wish to afford the District At- torney an opportunity for making a long speech. The District Attorney hereupon addressed the jury, asking them to deal with the prisoner, Curtis, in such nner as the offence demanded. The refined prac- tices of the pickpockets were scarcely to be conceived by thore who were not made acquainted with their infamous practices. They infested the city, the pub- lic thoroughfares, the steamboats. id generaliy con- gregated in batches. with a view to carry om their op- erations. In this large city they formed a numerous gang. and prowled about everywhere to plunder the unwary, and examples sh uld be made in all cases where they were brought before the court, as thay were more dangerous than the common thief, and composed of a class of men who are geuerally intelli- gent, and make a profession of their calling. fhe jury in afew minutes found the prisoner guilty, Robert Jehnson and James Williams, impleaded with the above, were pext put forward, and tried by a sepa- rate jury, upon the same testimony. Both prisoners were also found guilty.
