The proceedings of this Coavestes ean have no effeet but thet of damning forever the whele abolition party in the nerthers aad casters Thew are so dugustongly (reasonable ond outrageous, that the powsom which ther euthors om deaver to seatter throwghowt the commumety wall react ina forcible degree, and perkage drive away all vestige of abolitiomiem from every phace where tt now exests. It ie for this reason that we have taken the trouble to publich their proeeedings ‘The United States of Switseriand and of America. The Swise, Parisian, and English prem, are moch interested in the fact that & spectal envey of cor country has been sent to Switaeriand. The semi- official presse of the Helvete eoafederation the Bund Zetiung—as will be seen by car extrece from it ia another column, bas saluted Mr Dudley Mann's arrival in Switaeriand ma very haodsome manner. On the 2th of July it published, also, aa article, as follows — “The ecitisens of Ameries are Bot the only freemen who have reason A 4 it, for the sect is fresh ie the minds of ail, that it war General Taylor who firet of atl dmerione Pree dents sent to our goveroment & special en ’ arp our hand and open friendly relations with e very day that Mr Mann first pieced hit foot om soll twenty three days alter bis commission was out at Washington- the veaersble F to breathe He departed from “Tam prepared to do my duty.” * the solution cf a vital question We siucerely bope that the om tion caused ofnebhief Union by the unexpected versaly respected will lead the North and B: ip proffered by t sister republic on this United States, under bis auspices, continues to increase in greatness and usefulness. as they have doar hither pat. je of the orran May the to. under bie predecessor, for the protection af keberty | the encouragement of the fieble aud the cur of strong May the star-spangied banner attain as bright now in session at New Haven, with the report of Mr. Squiers on the Volcanoes of Central Ameri a; the telegraphic dee ton, New Orleans, * Fe, of the proceedings of om Mad ( ation | &e., &e.,&e., compel us, this mera- to publish the, Herald on a double sheet. hough we thus give the public forty-eight col- of important reading matter, we are yet forced, from want of room, to leave out a dozea eolomns of tetters from various parts of the world, and intelligence gathered from our foreign and do- | Presidential ¢! silver stars thine henceforth end forever de of the cross of the Swirs eonfederacy North America’s polity will remein the same. nge will not affect it. This external policy is immutable—dictated by the spirit and by the hirtorical vocation of the Upion.”’ Thus, it will be seen, an admirable spirit has welcomed the action taken by our late President, upon the frequent representations whieh we have gees in Switzerland—concerning the necessity of enlarging our relations with certain foreign powers. The executive of the Swiss confederation is now engaged wi Mr. Mann in framing a treaty of amity and commerce, and as soon as it is ap mertic exchange papers. We think, however, that forty-eight columns will be sufficient for one day, and cheap enough too, fer two cents. Summary of Telegraphic News. Nothing of importance was transacted by either House of Congrees yesterday. The Senate was engaged all day with the Fugitive Slave bill, and the Houre ot Representatives with the Civil and Diplomatic Appropriation bill, without either eoming to asy conclusion. There is a favorable prospect, however, of both these measures being passed to-day or to-morrow. We learn by the way of St. Louis, that very im- portant proceedings teak plece in New Mexico, on the 16th of last month. On that day the people of that territory held an election under the State con- stitution—which they formed some time since—for a Governor, Lieutenant-Governor, and members of the Legislature, which body soon after conve- on the day appointed in the constitution, elected two United States Senators to represeat that State in Congress. A part of those proceed- ings were somewkat curious, if not ludicrous. It weeme that a member of the Senate, after his ere- dentials were examioed and found correct, was ex- eluded from his seat because he would not vote with the majority, and his defeated opponent admitted ia his stead. This high handed measure disgusted the sensible portion of the Senate, who immedi- ately vacated their seats. The New Mexicans, however, did not take this to heart much, for the remainder of them deliberately went to work and filled the vacancies thus created, and proceeded to business in the coolest manner possible. It was under these circumstances that Majors Whiteman and Cunningham, late Poymasters in the army, were elected United States Senators. This extra- erdinary procedure, we should think, settled the qvestion saticfactorily to all, whether a State ora ‘Territerial goverament is the more jadicious for New Mexico. From such a commencement, the people of New Mexico, we should suppose, are determined to. make a commotion in the world hereafter. One of the most bare-faced, impudent and pre- sumptuous exhibitions of fanaticisrn and treason, whieh was ever perpetrated in any country, oe- curred at Cazwnovia, in this State, yesterday, at the Abolition Convention. At this piebald meet- ing of socialists and abolitionists of every hue, proved by the Swiss Assembly, a minister will be tent with it to Washington, that it may there be ratified. Now, if the United States appoint « minister, aleo—which we ought to do at oace— Switzerland, as freshly constituted ia 1348, will be ushered inte the family of nations by the United States—a first great measure in its foreiga policy, that is destined to protect the wings of young liberty in every neet where it may shelter itself. Since the date of her last comfederation, Switzer- land has made ro treaty with any foreign power, beyond a mere postal arrangement. She now tries her strength under the wing of the American eagle, and she will be eneouraged by this demon- stration on our part to move forward with a bold determination for the future. Before Mr. Mann's presence in that country, despair almost had seiaed upon the government. Sinee then the Secretary of Warand General Dufour have been engaged in fortifying the frontiers, so asto resist any pom sible encroachments. The people, too, have been animated with new vigor, and the benign effect of our foreign policy, even at its first display, is every- where apparent. The entire sixty newspapers of the Helvetic confederation declare, as with one voice, their hearty concurrence in and admiration of this new and important movement on the part of our country; and when we shall extend our fraternal disposition towards a few other weak powers, and shall make Tarkey interested with us, We may expect great results for mankiad. Ia South America, on the Pacific side, our presence is very necessary. We require a fleet there to give encouragement to the people. One in the bay of Fonseca would be useful, and if we ean only establish at the Society Islands an intercourse of the right kind, our relations with the Orient— as we must call it, even now—will be much more profitable and important. Mors Convicts From Bexmupa axp Gramany— D&TERMINATION To SEND BACK THR Criminats.—It appears that three hundred convicts in all have re- ceived their pardon in Bermuda, and as enly tea have arrived, the remainder may be daily expected. It is stated that they have the option of going to the West Indies or the United States; but of course they will prefer coming here. On the 18th instant, the bark Leontine, Captain Thormann, from Hamburgh, arrived at Quarantine with one hundred and fifteen passengers, and was reported to the Mayor on the 19h. Before her arrival, the Mayor had intelligence t) at four of the passengers were convicts from Mecklenbargh, for burglary, and were sent out to this country by the government, who winked at the ingenious device of sending them first from the privon to the work- house, and thence on board the Leentine. Their names are Toadhim Kohler, Johaon Woding, Carl Hahl; and Hermann Meyen. His Honer caus ed them to be arrested as soon as the bark arrived, and on being brought before the Mayor, they were interrogated, and admitted the facts. The captain color, shade and eex, af black spirits, and white, blve spirits ead gray—of taitors to this State and to the United States—of female philanthropists in breeches, and male sympathizers in petticoate—the notoriously degmded fugitive Fred Deugla-s, pre- sided, and a pumber of black aod mulatto niggers and white womermafficiated as vive presidents. Among other things, these fanayice recommend Chaplin, who is now ia durance vile for abducting slaves, as a candidate for the next prec idency, and passed a string of resolutions eommen ding Chap- lin, freedom ond civil war. This is a brief out line of the proceedings of this contemptidle, deep eable and God-forsaken hand-full of (anatios» No one can peruse them without arriving at the ¢ 0% clusion thet those uafortunate peopie are ii ‘ and ought at once \o be confined im our lunatic asylums, for if allowed to be at large they will ecrtainly do themselves or others some grievous bodily harm, As for Uke unfortunate and much to te pitied Chaplin, who ie a8 crazy as the rest of them, we rather think ¢hat if he should escape with his life, he will be too old if he should sur- vive the long term of impricowment to which he will doubtlees be consigned, on conviction of the offence of which he is charged, to be of any use to himself or any other person, to say nothing of | discharging the duties of the Presidewcy.

They have been, therefore, placed on board. It seems that a cor- respondeace has taken place betweea the authori- ties at Hamburgh and the Meckieaburgh govera- ment, in reference to these convicts, and that strong measures have been takea by the former to prevent a repetition of the trick. A communica- tion was aleo received at Washingtoa from Ham- burgh, notifying the United States government of these facts. In the case of the Bermuda coavicts, the Captain bas also undertaken to convey them back, aod the ofler, we understand, will the accepted. From the 7Slet page of the third edition of the Revised Statutes of the State of New York, we fiod that the maximum penalty is a fine of three hundred dollars for each oflence, with imprisonment not exceeding one year ; but that the tue and imprison- ment may be remitted on the masters of vessels taking beck the convicts. This law, however, on ly applies to this State, and it would seem de- wire Die to have a general law of Congress to pre- vent *uch raecels landing anywhere ea our shores.

MUTINY ON BOARD THE AMERICAN SCHR. AURORA. The Crescent City left at five o’cloek in the afternoon of the 15th ultimo. Her dates are only two days later than the Philadelphia’s. Since our correspondence by the Philadelphia, nothing of particular consequence occurred in this island. i From the Kingsten Datly Advertiser, of the 15th, we copy the following paragraph :— ‘The sehoouer Aurora, Lat master, of Charleston, United States, sailed from Savannalamar. on the 1 for portin Cuba, but shortly afer the vessel Deen fairly at sea, and the pilot, with four able returned on board his canoe, yet still within hearing, | the crew rose upon the eaptain and mutinied; one man seized an exe, split the cabin door asunder, to which lace the esptain had run for safety, and attempted Eis tio, white twe ether were equally inferiated, and assisted him in destroying several parte of the vessel.

Quote- tions remain without alteration and there are no indica- tious of any improvement, at all events. Theonlytwe - fancies in which there has been lately any excitement are Erie Reading Railroad, and netwithetending the efforts of those interested in inflating prices, the ruling rates are below those current « week or two since. Reading Railroad has been ehanging hands very rapidly during the past three or feur days, and: it is about undergoing one of those revelations it has periodically experienced within the past five years. ‘The Philadelphians are large sellers, and the largest mutineers, bring- ing the vessel back into rhe ong C4 purebarers are from the East.

As for fire riots, and other disrepotable proceedings, they are too bumere » menvon. What is the cause of this sed and deplorable tate of things in our sivter city tT Is there no way of suppressing the epirit of rowdyiem and ruffiaa- iem which stalks through ite streetet le there ne method by which « repetition of thowe frightful and bloody scenes can be prevented, and more security be provided for the protection of human fet We do not pre to be very intimate with the muni- cipal arrangements of Philadelphia; but, from what we do know, we are convinced that so long a# the city govern! t remains as it is, cut up and divid- ed into separate and distinct arrondissements or de- partments, it will be inefficient for the protection of life or property, and that crime will increase re. ther then duniaish. The police arrangements be ing of the same character, offer ne protection to the public. From all that we have learmed, the police system of Philadelphia is the worst, most corrupt, and most inefficient of any in exietener lt ie timilar to what we had in thie city « few years ago, and which we were compelled to reform, from the increase of crime and ef criminals in our midst Although our city, with a much greater population then that of Philadeiphia, and containing, as all large commercial eities do, criminals from every quarter of the world, and of every color aad hee, was not stained with 0 many riot® and assassine- tione, before our new system of police was formed, as Philadelphia is, yet we were forced to adopt « change, end the consequence te, that under the new one, there is not now a quieter or more orderly city in the world, A similar system mast be adopted in Philadelphia seoner or later, and the sooner the better, if ite johabitants wick to be secure of their lives. The spirit of rowdy- ism must be checked, aud the scoundrels whe are the authors of the numerous riots and assassina- tions there must be taught to obey the law But before any measores like these can be adopted, the eity government must be consolidated and strengthened, When that ie done, « reform in the police system could be easily brought aboot. Tf that, or some equally effectual method of pre terving the peace and securing the lives of the people be not soon adopted, Philadelphia will lose the litde character which it still poseessrs, and become a prey to lawlessness and violenve to greeter degree than it ie at present.
