Fremont’s party, is now in this ¢ ‘4 He has entirely recruited his ealth and strength, and, Beh true American perseverence, is making arrange- Jrents for the second trial of a journey to California fount he gives of the terrible privations and The acccr endured by the party to which he was at- fached corresponds in every particular with that of Col. Fremont. The wretchedness of their condition for ‘awhile, he says, passes human conception. ‘Of the ten men who died, two. Messrs, Wise and An- @rews, were well known citizens of this place; Proue was anative of France; Morain, a resident of illinois, whore relations we believe are in Cahokia; Beadle, a re- sident of this county; Rhorer and King. citizens of Georgetown, D. C.; Hubbard, from Milwaukie, and Car- ver from Chicago. ‘The fate of Mr, King was most heart-rending. was, says Mr. Taplin, a man in the spring time of efeultivated mind, and of the most_engaging manne He had been married but two weeks previous to his de- parture on the expedition, and was only a short time with the company ere he had gained the friendship Znd esteem ofevery member. When Fremont's party had first lost their horses, a company of four men, of which King had been appointed leader, were despatch- ed to the settlements to procure succor. Sixteen days after their departure, Fremont (who having become impatient of their protracted stay, had determined to nself in search of supplies) overtook them. He nd Williams, Breckenridge and another, scarecly able to proceed trom exhaustion, King had died, and his remains, which the party eerried with them, had been more than half eaten up Dy his companions. A dire necessity had left them no eboice, and it was done in self protection, Up to nearly the day of his death, King had kept a journal. ‘The last entry written upon it is this :—* Dee. 11th. ‘This morning. as usual, I have hada quarrel with Bill Williams, Nothing to eat. We travelled one mile and a half to-day.” ‘Tho cause of the difficulty with Williams was tho latter's daily inereasing weakness, and his inability to proceed ig endeavored by re- monstrances to urge him forward, So long us Fremont remained in the camp, says Mr. Taplin, his presence was a great encouragement to his men, and they were, as much as could be expected, reconciled to their condition; but, as soon as he left them, to go in quest of assistance, the more inexpe- rienced members lost all kind of hope. They con- sidered their fate already sealed, Thus Morain wan- dered in the neighborhood ef the camp in search of game, and finally followed in the footsteps of Col. Fre- mont, with a desperate hope of overtaking him. He Rad not gone far, however, when total exhaustion pelled him to lie down for his final rest. Those (among whom was Mr. Taplin) who surviy sisted. as best they could. on raw hide, but this, also, would have failed to sustain them, had not assistance ‘asrived as soon as it did. Important rrom Mexico.—We are indebted to a frend for the following extract from a letter re- eeived by him yesterday, dated “Maramoxos, April 20, 1849.—Paredes is kicking up the devil ut present. ‘The pronunciados (insurgents) took San Louis Potosi on the 17th instant, and have marched on Queretaro. The troops sent from here to put down the revolt have pronounced in favor of Pa- redes, and joined the revolutionists as soon as they erossed the mountains,’’ Our previous advices from Mexico represented that a formidable insurrection had broken out in the vicinity of San Louis, and that a large body of troops had been sent on by the government to put down the insurgents At is difficult to obtain from our Mexican exchanges a satisfactory account of any of the movements of the poeple, as they exaggerate the successes of the govern- ment forces, and depreciate the operations of those hostile to the present administration. If the above in- poe rips be correct, we may expect the unfortunate republic of Mexico will soon be plunged into the horrors ‘anarchy if not a civil war.—New Orleans, Dalta. [Correspondence of the National Intelligencer.] Tamrico, April 13, 1849. In my last I advised youofa party that had marched pon Kio Verde, in the State of San Luis Potosi. They are now advancing upon the city of San Luis, and they have possessed themselves of several small towns on ‘the way. The discontented — here have been exerting themeelves to get up another revolution; but General Garay, who was left in command, has been on the alert. I also learn that General La Vega, and the troops under his command, who left here a few days a0 for Tula, are ordered back for the protection of ‘ampico. By the vigilance of General Garay, we have been saved the miseries of another revolution. — The principal movers in this new drama are Don Pablo Castillin, Don Ramen de la Torra, and J Man Dufart. Last night they called upon some of the principal merchants of the city, and demanded Money tocarry out the pronunciamento against the general government of Mexico, bn! the merchants po- sitively refused them, In the mean time, Gen. Garay gaccecded in having the traitors arrested and placed in elose confinement. The history of these men will give some idea of the Mexican character, their want of moral principle, and their instability, Pable Castillin’s t appearance on the Mexican platform was as a gue- Filla chief, under the auspices of Santa Anna. But finding his profession not s0 profitable as his anticipa- ns. his patriotism cooled, and he resigned several months Pyne to the close of the war. The sinall military force that received the town fromthe hands of our government could not give proper seeurity to the place. Castillin placed himself at the head of the National Guards, and ejected the military and their chiefs as despots Don Ramon de la Torra has been a Federalisto, a Centralisto, and un advocate for Santa Anna, whilst at the same time one of the movers for the Sierra Madre Fepublic. In fact, he has been all things to all men, on Julian Dufart, a Frenchman by birth, afterwards obtained American citizenship, and lastly, to suit sin- ister motives, became a citizen of the Mexican re- Public ; chowing a strong spirit of hostility against the American government previous to the capture of Tam- Pico. It is now greatly feared that the present government of Mexico, although it means well, has not sufficient strength to maintain its authority The embers of discontent are blown up by the foul breath of unprin- cipled meu throughout Mexico. By dates from the city Mexico up to the 5th ultimo, much discontent pro- yailed, some cha nge casting it« gloomy shadows. The Puros are again clamorous, whilst many are making shrines for the old saint by whom they have had theie pital A and the crest-fallen military would hail his val. News rrom Texas.—The arrival of the steam- ship Globe, Capt. Ellery, has put us in possession of late numbers of the Brownsville Flag, from which the following are extracts. This steamer has brought $30,000 in specie to order. The Flag, of the 18th, says:—“ It is truly gran- fying for us to lay before our readers a new order received at Matamoros, by express from Mexico on Friday last, admitting the entry of all kinds o} provisions into Matamoros at a moderate rate of duty. That imperious necessity called for this act mone can gainsay, and we heartily congratulate our neighbors that a beginning has been made, that a step has been taken towards the enacting of liberal laws—laws in accordance with the spirit of the oe, in which we live. Provisionsare admitted into Matamoros on the payment of the following duties:—Flour, superfine per barrel. $150; com- mon, $1; rice, per quintal, 75c.; coffee, per quin- tal, $1 10; salted meat, per quintal, $1 20; butter and lard, $120. All other class of provisions, 20 per cent on their valuation. The General com- Manding the district of Matamoros has issued a cir- cular congratulating the citizens on the removal of the prohibitions on the introduction of previsions. ‘e have been favored with communications from Mr. A. C. Labatt, of the New Orleans company, bound for California. They were at Roma, an were about starting on their overland journey. Of company, Mr. H. H.

Dr. Wozencraft, to whom we are so deeply indebted for kindly services renderedduring our epidemic, had sately reached Moncloya, on his California route, on the Mthult. The company under his command, 19 in number, were in good health and spirits.” .. The Flag of the 11th mentions a rumor, which it is to be hoped will prove untrue Phat a party of California emigrants, which left Corpus Christi some four or five weeks ago, direct tor the Paso del Norte, have perished upon the prairies from | hunger and thirst. We have no particulars, except that it is said by the family of the guide, Agapito Martinez, who accompanied the party, that he has reached Corpus Christi, and brings the above re- rr, He states, it is ‘said, that the usual water oles on the route Were found to be dry, and that himeelf and another Mexican guide were the only ones who survived.” ¢ Not se 4 tion of the report in the Cor Chr iati Star, nae Brownsvi.Le.—Our town presents quite ‘ mercial appearance.

Sin—I address myself to youas the head of a great nation. whose power to help me | cannot dowbt, and in whose disposition todo so | havea confidence which J trust you will not deem presumptuous, ‘The name of my husband, Sir John Franklin, is pro- bably not unknown to you " It is intimately connected with the northern part of that continent, of which the American republic forms so vast and conspicuous a por- tion. When I visited the United States. three years ago, among the many proofs I received of respect and cour- texy, there was none that touched and even surprised me more than the appreciation everywhere expressed to me of his former services in geographical discovery, and the interest felt in the enterprise in which he was then known to be engaged. ‘The expedition fitted out by our government for the discovery of the Northwest Passage, (that question which for three hundred years has engaged the interests and baftied the energies of the man of science and the navigator.) sailed, under my husband’s command, in May. 1845. ‘The two ships, Erebus and Terror, contain- ed 138 men, (officers and crews.) and were viectualled for three years. They were not expected home, unless success had early rewarded their efforts, or some casu- alty hastened their return, before the close of 1847; nor were any tidings expected from them in the interval. But when the autumn of 1847 arrived, without any in- telligence from the ships, the attention of Her Majes- ty’s government was di to the necessity of search. ing for. and conveying relief to them, in case of their befng imprisoned in ice, or wrecked, and infwant ot pro- yisions and means of transport, For this purpose an expedition, in three divisions, was fitted out in the eurly part of last year, directed to the three different quarters simultaneously, viz :— First, to that by which, in ease of success, the ships would come out of the Polar Sea to the westward, (or Behring Strait.) Second, to that by which they ent, of discovery on the eastern side, (or D: And, third, to an int shore, approach: pany’s settlements, on which it was supposed the crews, if obliged to abandon their ships, might be found, This last division of the expedition was placed under the command of my husband’s faithful friend, the com- panion of his former travels, Dr. Sir John Richardson, who landed in New York in April of last year, and has- tened tojoin his men and boats, which were already in advance towards the Arctic shore, Of this portion of the expedition | may brietly say, that the absence of any intelligence from Sir John Richardson, at th gon, proves he has been unsuccessful in the object of his search. ‘The expedition intended for Behring’s Strait has hitherto been a complete failure. It ec hip, the Plover, which, owing to her setting off too late and to her bad sailing properties, did not even approach her destination last year, The remaining and most important portion of the searching expedition consists of two ships, under the command of Sir James Ross, which sailed last May for Davis's Strait, ed on their course ) but did not succeed, owing to the state of the ice, in getting into Lancaster Sound till the season for oj tions bad nearly closed, ‘These ships are now winter. ing in the ice, and a store ship is about to be despatched from hence with provisions and fuel to enable them to stay out another year ; but one of these vessels is, in a greut degree, withdrawn from active search, by the ne- cessity of watching at the entrance of Lancaster Sound for the arrival of intelligence and instructions from England by the whalers 1 have entered into these details with a view of prov- ing that. though the British Government has not for- gotten the duty it owes to the krave men whom it has sent on a perilous service, and has spent @ very large sum in providing the means for their rescue, yet that, owing to various causes, the means actually in opera: tion for this purpose are quite inadequate to mect the extreme exigence of the case ; for it must be remem- bered that the missing ships were vietualied for three years only, and that nearly four years have now elapsed, Jo that the survivors of so many winters iu the loe must be at the last extremity ; and, also, it must be borne in mind that the channels by which the ships may have attempted to force a passage to the westward, or which they may have been compelled by adverse cir cumstances to take, are very numerous and complica- ted, and that one or two ships cannot possibly, in the course of the next short summer, explore thei all ‘The Board of Admiralty, under a conviction of this fact, has been induced to offer a reward of £20,000 ster- ling to any ship or ships, of any country, or to any ex- ploring party whatever, which shall render efficient as- sistance to the missing ships, or their crews, or to an portion of them. This announcement, which, even it thesum had been doubled or trebled, would have met with public approbation, comes, however, too late for our whalers, which had unfortunately sailed before it was issued, and which, even if the news should reach them at their fishing grounds, are totally unfitted for any prolonged adventure, having only a few months’ provisions on board, and noadditional clothing. To the American wha'ers, both in the Atlantic and Pacific, | look with more hope as competitors for the prize, beity well aware of their number and strength, their thoroug! equipment: [and the bold spirit of enterprise which animates their crews. But venture to look even be- yond these, J ain not without hope that you will deem it not unworthy of a great and kindred nation to take up the cause of humanity, which I plead ina na- tional spirit, and thus generously make it your own, I must here in gratitude adduce the example of the imperial Russian government, which, as I am led to hope by his excellency the Russian Ambassador in London, who forwarded a memorial on the subject, will send ont exploring parties this summer from the Asia- tic side of Behring’s Strait, northwards, in search of the lost vessels, It would be a noble spectacle to the world, if three great nations, possessed of the widest empires on the face of the globe, were thus to unite their efforts in the truly christian work of saving their perishing fellow-men from destruction. It is not for me to suggest the mode in which such bene- volent efforts might best be made. I will only say, how- ever, that if the conceptions ofmy own mind, to which Ido not venture to give utterance, were realized, and that, in the noble competition which followed, Ameri- can seamen had the good fortune to wrest from us tho glory, as might be the case, of solving the problem of the unfound passage, or the «till greater glory of saving our adventurous navigators trom lingering fate which the mind sickens to dwell on, though | should, in either case, regret that it was not my own brave countrymen in those scas whose devotion was thus rewarded, yet should I rejoice that it was to America we owed our re- stored happiness, and should be forever bound to her by ties of affectionate gratitude. I am not without some misgivings while I thus ad- dress you. The intense anxictics of a wife and of a daughter may have led me to press too earnestly on your notice the trial under which we are suffering—yet, not we only, but hundreds of others—and to presume too much on the sympathy which, we are assured, is felt beyond the limits ofourown land. Yetif youdeem this to be the case, you will atill find, I am sure, even in that personal intensity of feeling, an excuse for the fearlessness with which I have thrown myself on your generosity, and will pardon the homage? thus pay to your own high character, and to that of the people over whom you haye the high distinction to preside. Ihave the honor to be, sir, with great respect. your obedient servant, JANE FRANKLIN. Emancipation iN Ker: KY ‘he convention, eomposed of citizens of the commonwealth of Ken- tucky, and representing the opinions and wishes of a large number of their fellow-citizens throughout the commonwealth, met in the capitol, on the 25th April, 1849, to consider what course it becomes those who are opposed to the increase and to the perpetuity of slavery in this State to pursue in the approaching canvass for members of the conven- tion, called to amend the constitution, and adopted the propositions which follow, as expressing ts judgment in the premises: 1. Believing that involuntary hereditary slavery, as it exists Wy law in this State, is injurious to the pros- perity of the commonwealth, inconsistent with the fun- damental principles of free government, contrary to the natural rights of mankind, and adverse to a pure state of morals; we are of opinion that it ought not to be in- creased, and that it ought not to be perpetuated in the commonwealth, 2. That any scheme of emancipation ought to be prospective, operating exclusively upon negroes born after the adoption of the scheme, and connected with colonization. 8. That we recommend the following points as those to be insisted on in the new constitution, and that can- didates be run, in every county in the State, favorable to these or similar constitutional provisions : “1, The absolute prohibition of the importation of any more slaves to Kentucky.”” “2. The complete power in the people of Kentucky to enforce and perfect in or under the new constitution, a system of gradual, prospective emancipation of slaves.”” 4, This convention confines its recommendation to the question of slavery, and makes no expression of opinion on any other topic. 5. Resolved, That W. W. Worsley, Reuben Dawson, D. L. Beatty, Pat Maxcy, Bland Ballard, Wm. P. Boone, Ww. FE. Glover,T. MeGrain, James Speed, and William Richardson, be, and they are hereby appointed a central committee, to all proper means to promote the views of this convention on the subject of emancipa- tion, and that they have power to appeint sub-commit- tees in such places in the State as they may deem pro- per, and also to appoint advocates of the cause where they may think its interest demands it. On motion, of Mr. Ballinger, it was evolved, That the thanks of this convention are hereby tendered to its President, Vice Presidents, and Seeretarics, for the able and impartial manner in which they have discharged their respective duties, Kerolved, That the newspapers of Kentucky be re- ste} to publish the foregoing preamble HENRY CLAY, of Bourbon, Pres’t.

To- morrow, this theatre will present to its patrons the greatest attraction that has ever been offered for the edification and amusement ef the play-going folk of that district. ‘The play announced 1s that of Macbeth. which will be produced with the strongest cast of cha- racters, Mr. Hamblin, the oldest theatrical manager in this city, and whose histronic powers have always been held in the highest estimation, will sustain the art of Macbeth. Mr. Ryder, the associate actor of acready while performing in this country, and whose success as a tragedian is too well known to require any eulogy from us, will personate the part of Macduff, and Mrs /Shaw. decidedly the best tragic actress in’ this country, and we question much if there be better any- where, will play the heavy but important character of Lady wth: In addition to this extraordinary at- traction. Mr. Hamblin bas engaged Mr, R, Ryan, the celebrated Irish comedian and yooallst, lately arrived from London, who will make his first appearance in the racter of Doctor O'Toole. ‘The boxes will be fifty cond tier twenty-five cents, To our cents, and the 6 mind. considering this effort of the manager, not tobe bebind any establishment in this city in attrac: tive features, we are persuaded the Bowery Theatre, to-morrow evening, will present the most brilliant as- semblage ever congregated within its walls. in order to show Mr, Hamblin that a discerning public duly appre- ciate his efforts to refine the taste and movements of the theatrical world by the introduction of the legiti- mate drama Buoavway Tueatre.—Last night Mr. Forrest played the famous and trying part of Richard the Third.— "This ix, with justice, regarded as the most difficult of all Shakspeare’s characters, and the test of an actor's talent. Of the performance, as we witnessed it last night, we would say that though Mr.Forrest is, beyond doubt, man of great talent, yet he is not a great Richard, ‘Though there are in his performance of Richard occasional bursts, which bring down the house, and certainly exhibit astonishing power und energy, yet. the whole, there seemed to us to be lacking tn Mr. Forrest, on this occasion, a careful study and reading of the part, ‘There was every now and then a Durst of vehement passion, admirably given; yet these bursts seemed to be too much prepared, and waited for; to be too uniform when they occurred, and to be save and hoarded up, as it were, to bring out the telling parts, while all the rest of ‘the character was played carelessly and negligently, We make these remarks true regard for our great actor; we have lauded him ond all other actors, but never meant thereby that he was beyond improvement. Nor do we mean to ray, by these remarks, that Mr. Forrest's Richard is not & great performance, for were we to see it played as well by any ordinary actor, we should say it was excellent; but we expect a great deal more from Mr. Forrest.— Mrs, Abbott deserves favorable mention for her able performance of Queen Elizabeth. It was a beautiful entation, and by # beautiful woman. Mrs. Dyott, as Duchess of York, drew down loud applause for her enactment of the railing scene, Here Mr. Forrest was reat, though we thought, asabove, that he was even flere too hurried and furrled, and in much too great haste to make one of his sudden, striking, dashing, roaring ebullitions, Mr. Moorhouse as Buckingham, and Mr, Dyott as Richmond, both deserve great com mendation, Altogether, Richard the Third, as per- formed at the Broadway last night, was a great treat, and we hope it will be repeated next week, when we ure happy to learn Mr. Forrest will appear each evening in some one of his grent characters; in any one of which he is great, except in that miserable abortion of a play, the poor, wretched Broker of Bogota, Nino's Tueatne, Astor Puack.—To-morrow eve- ning, the lovers of the legitimate drama will be pleased to learn, this beautiful theatre will open with Shaks- peare's tragedy of “Macbeth.” Mr, Macready, the great tragedian, will sustain the character of the noble Thane, and Mrs. Colman Pope that of Lady Macbeth. Mr. C. W. Clarke, an actor of considerable celebrity, and a great favorite, will personate the character of Macduff ; and that of Duncan, king of Scotland, by Mr. ‘Wemyss, a good actor. All the other characters by an excelient stock company, among whom we may mention the names of A. Andrews, as Hecate, and Messrs. Chi pendale and Sefton, as the principal witches. This, in- deed, will be a tich treat, and we have little doubt but that the theatre, at an carly hour, will bo filled in ever department. Captain Niblo knows how to cater weil for his patrons, as his great success as a theatrical manager proves, and hence arises the high opinion en- tertained by our citizens, in regard to his managerial abilities, Nationat Tueatne —“Jack Sheppard” and “New York as it is,”” were played last evening before a fine audience, and passed off admirably. Miss Mestayer makes the nattiest Jack Sheppard we have over seen, and if that famous individual at all resembled her, he must have been quite a captivating young fellow. T. G. Booth’s Blueskin was & very comical pleco of acti and the whole piece was much applauded.

Mr. Burton fs, to our taste, the real portrait of iraseible and fretful men, and plays his part of Asper Manley to perfection. Mr. Brougham was received with much applause, both as actor and author, and his wife shared the same recep- tion, Messrs.

Tux Distivs—This talented family have returned from Boston with fresh laurels, and announce their second and last concert in Brooklyn. to take place at the Fe- male Aeademy, on Tuesday evening next. The very reat success that attended their first appearance in rooklyn.and the enthusiastic applause elicited by their wonderful performances, give assurance that their re- appearance in our sister city. will be hailed with plea- sure by the eitizens of Brooklyn, and we doubt if the spacious ball of the Female Academy will contain the hundreds who will be anxious to hear them. Arouto Rooms—Gaann Coxcert or M. Ikeuneimen.— This fashionable affair, which is got up in great style, will come off to-morrow evening. at the frit Rooms, and will be, no doubt, attended by many. Desiré Ikel- heimer, the young French violinist, is an artist of high merit and genius, and has been appreciated by all who had an opportunity of hearing him, when he gave his concert in New York, after bis arrival in this country. M. Ikelheimer, despite his youth, is not only an exe- cutant, but also a composer; for we seo. in the pro- gramme of his concert, that he will perform two picoos of his own composition. Several artists of talent will assist the young violinist; and we notice among them Madame Fliza Valentini, who has been, for a long time in Paris, giving lessons in singing, and where she was very successful; Signor Taffancili, the baritone, whose rich voice is so much admired; Signor Corel and M. Maretzek, who will accompany the different pieces of the concert on the pianoforte. gramme consists of the most prominent from the best writers, and is calculated to draw many dilettanti to the concert of the talented violinist, Desire Ikelheimer, Mr. Macantiy, the eminent delineator of Irish cha- racter, will commence a series of his delightful Irish Evenings’ at Vauxhall Garden, to-morrow night He will be aided by Miss Fanny Frazer, the beautiful yo- calist, and presents a fine programme Crnusty’s Minstr ete, —These as lively as can The fine spring week on- livened them up, so that they now sing, dance, play, &e., better than ever; and as they have ever been most admirable performers in their line, they now rank as superlatives.

The Sunday evening concerts, which have always been so much appreciated by dur citizens, will be commenced this evening; and the cole- brated New York Brass Band, under the direction of Mr. J. Nosher, will perform a variety of the most ad- mirable music| from the works of Neukomm, Haydn, Maynard, Bloomfield, &c. A most delightful ‘evenin, can be spent here, concert will commence at o,clock, Voiteaxpen’s Micnocosie Virws.—These very ox- traordinary views, which, by those who have seen them, are tated to be the most remarkable things yet pro- duced by modern science, will be exhibited to-morrow evening for the first time, at the new assembly rooms over the Chinese Museum.

SENTENCE ON ALEXANDER JONES, FOUND GUILTY oF ARSON. May 6.—Alexander Jones, the negro, found guilty of arson in the first degree on Thursday last. was brought up this morning for rentence. He was put tothe bar, and asked the usual question, had he anything to say why sentence of death should not be passed upon him? The convict muttered something. but so indistinctly we could not catch his words. His honor the Judge then proceeded to make some remarks previous to pass- ing the sentence. He said the crime of which the con- viet bad been found guilty was, that of setting fire to a dwelling-house in the niggt time, to which the law at- tached the penalty of death. and it was the duty of the court to pronounce the sentence of the law upon bim. Eight of the jury had recommended him to merey, but it was proper to admonish hit that the court could not unite in that recommendation, The jurors who had joined in the recommendation were doubtless influenced by the evidence given of his previous good character; but some facts have since come to the knowledge of the court, if known on the trial, the jurors would ib the recommendation. It seems there weve three fires in the same viciuity the night you at- tempted to set fire to Webb’s House, and that ‘a week before anothsr attempt was made to fire the same pre- mises, and there ixgood reason to believe that you were implicated in those incendiary acts. The crime of which you have been convicted is one of the most atro- cious crimes known to our laws; it is much more atro- cious than the crime of murder; in the one case the life of only one person is aimed at ; moreover, the crime of wurder is mostly committed in the heat of passion, and generally preceded by motives of revenge ; but the crime of which you have been found guilty is coolly and deliberately planned. and the lives of numbers of innecent and unoffending people placed in the most im- minent danger ; under these circumstances, the court cannot unite in the recommendation of the jury. nor can it hold out the slightest hope to you for a mitiga- tion of punishment. ‘The sentence of the court, there- fore, is. that on Friday, the 22d day of June next, you be hanged by the neck until you are dead. ‘The warrant for his execution was then read, and given to the Sheriff, two or three officers. Gi Court was op ceeded with the@jury cul nd the convict. was removed by he court then adjourned. ‘The d. und Judge Edmonds pro- ndar, ce eded Victory or THe BLacks over ‘rue Spantanps at Hayr1.—By the arrival of the brig Silenus we. have dates from the island of Layti to the 20th of April. Acec>nts had been received at the Cape of a battle at Azua, between the Haytiens and the Domini- cans, in which the latter were utterly routed,with great loss, The battle is represented to have been a hotly contested one, and the Haytiens did not altogether es- cape, losing. it is said, from one to two hundred. Of the Dominicans three or four hundred were killed, mostly in the battle, A number ef women and children in Azua (which town fell into the possession of the conquerers), were also slain. ‘The accounts, however, do not represent that there was any general plunder of the town, or indiscriminate slaughter of its inhabitants, as might have been feared from the undisciplined state of the conquering army, A large quantity of provisions, five thousand stand of arms, and many prisoners. fell into the hands of the bgt dapret From Azua, Soloque continued his march for the city of St. Domingo, which would probably fall into his hands, together with San- tiago, and the whole of the Spanish part of the island. A pussenger from the Cape gives acurious account of that portion of the Haytien army which started from that quarter. He says that they were barefoot, with- out sleeves or tails to their coats, not a cent in their pockets, nor a mouthful to eat. Of course, on their march they were obliged to live by forced contribu- tions upon their own countrymen ‘until they reache the front It is actually stated that the Command- ing Gene before starting, sent on board one of the vessels in port to beg a few biscuits to put in his knap- sack. The monopoly law, it is now thought, was a very cunningly devised ‘scheme of Soloque to prevent the merchants from meddling in politics, by setting them by the cars among themselves as to the division of coffee, &c. Soloque is a shrewd manager, and is per haps a better head of the Haytien government than some of his more ignorant and brutal generals, to whom the authority would probably devolve in case of his death or displacement.— Boston Traveller, May 4. Avyoruer TRIAL For Murper in New Orieans.— Jose Fuentes was vp eae: tried before the First District Court, Judge McHenry presiding, for the murder of a free man of color, named Manuel Ducre, by stabbing him in the abdomen, on the night of the 29th November last, in the fish market of the First Municipality, of which wound he died in two days after, in the Charity Hospital. The proceedings in the case, in detail, are not of su! cient interest to demand publication. The testi- mony was clear and direct, and its general purport may be gathered from the charge of the judge to the jury, as follows :— If the evidence satisfies you that the deocased was a free man of color; and in the market house, with fish for sale; and that the prisoner, » white person, applied to him to purchase, and offered a certain price, took and removed some of them without paying for the same, or without the consent of the deceased ; and that the deceased took the fish back, offering no vio- lence ; and that, thereupon, the prisoner drew a knife from a sheath, with @ blade about six or eight inches in length, and stabbed the deceased, of which wound he died in a few days—it is murder. ‘That it is lawful, in all cases where the punishment denounced by law is death, for you to qualify your verdict, by addin thereto—without capitat pulshment ; and that it would be the duty of the court to sentence him to hard labor for life in the State Penitentiary. For the defence the only evidence was, that the deceased used highly offensive and contumelious language to the prisoner. This was proved by the State witnesses. The fact, however, had no weight pcm the jury, who brought in an unqualified ver- dict of guilty. For the State, Attorney-General Elmore and District Attorney Reynolds; for the defence, Messrs.
