Some very fine new white Zealand wheat was «shown there on Monday, and the accounts from the interior being of a satisfactory nature in refer- ence to the progress making with the harvest, the tendency of prices was rather downward. , Miscellaneous, Tue Hexoaatan Rervoses 1y Torxey.—Our - cor! lence _gives’the following particulars of the ious Hungarians whom the jealousy of A the dictation of Russia, and the weakness -of the Porte have conieeed to imprisonment at Kutayeh :—“ It was gratifying to learn, when the account was written, that the exiles enjoyed toler- able health, and were more reeonciled than at first to their unaccountable captivity. Kossuth, Batthy- ani, Meezaros, Perczel, aud the rest were, indeed, struck with despondency when conveyed as cul- prits and captives to the barrack prison of Kutayeh, where cells were assigned them for habitation more savoring of Newgate than of honorable cap- tivity. The strictest guard was kept over them, and they were not allowed to pass the walls of the barrack without a strong escort. The Turkish officers and soldiers have treated the prisoners with deference, and the Turkish population with every mark of Oriental respect, Kossuth being with them the Kral, who had held for a time in his hands the destinies of eastern Europe. This universal respect was especially evident on the occasion of Kossuth’s reception of his children. Three of them, interest ing and intelligent little creatures, were sent by the Austrian government, not without foreiga interces- si to share their father’s captivity. He and Madame Kossuth were allowed to go and meet them—vnder guard, of course ; and the very guard of rude Turkish soldiers were affected to tears at the meeting.

The cause of education in New Hampshire is onward, and they find it necessary to increase the value of the staple they export to other States, namely, the men and women they raise and send out. Governor Haines, of New Jersey, detailed the school system in that State. There are education- al institutes and societies in several of the coun- ties. They attract considerable interest. Appro- priatiops are made by the towns for the support of schools. There are nO free schools through the Sate, though several towns and dis'ricts have pe- titioned the Legislature several times for permission to raise taxes for the support of free schools.

Up to the BS sent time, no mackerel suitable for the table, have found the way here; and ering how very desirable they are in days as an article of Tod, it is quite abeny S the lovers of good fish. Some attribute the scarcity of mackerel in our bay. to the presence of the blue fish, which, within w years, have visited our shores and rivers in py? abundance. From the movements of the blue in our river, and their savage treatment of all the smaller fish which come in their way, we are not surprised that the mackerel should give them a wide berth. Fresh mackerel are not only scarce here, but the arrivals of fares or salted ones, this teason, have been very small. Yesterday made thirteen days since we had an arrival of a fishiag eraft with mackerel ef any description, either from our bay or fromthe Bay Chaleur. We think they cannot be plenty upon any of the usual fishing grounds. Iftheyare not ‘taken more plentifally in the course of the next six or eight weeks, the catch must be very limited, and the season an uopro- pitious one for thowe engeged in the mackerel fishery.— Newburyport Herald, Ave % Ovrrags ny a Fatuer vrox wis Davanren.

Earlier in the week, mob-like crowds met on several evenings around the hotel Pharoux, with the threatening intention of mobbing the of- ficers of the British navy quartered there. Mat- ters are, however, now becoming more quiet, and “sober second thoughts” more prevalent among all classes; and though the press and the people are all loud in their condemnations of the out rageous measures which the English admiral on this station has seen fit to adopt for the suppres- sion of the slave trade, yet none, even in Erazil, have the hardihood and boldness, in the present day, to uphold this wicked contraband traffic in human flesh. All profess to agree that it should cease ; yet all as mutually agree that it is an out- rage upon common rights and a gross violation of the great law of nations, for one nation to enter the harbors or ports of another nation, and there assume to itself the right of jurisdiction of any law not affecting the citizens or subjects of a go- vernment who are permitted, by sufferance, to re- side in the country and under the laws of another the 7th instant, and Monday, the ‘ayesty the Emperor, held spe- cial meetings of his cabinet, which are said to have resulted in addressing communications to Mr. Hudson, the British charge d’aflaires, demand- ing information respecting the measures that had been taken by H.

I have, how- ever, heard to-day, that Mr. Hudson has stated that he had not received any such communication from this government. oF is latter report 1 donot beheve.) Meanwhile, H. B.

On the 9th instant, I. 1 M., the Emperor paid a visit to all the forts in the harbor, to examine into their condition, in case of need, and on the same day a report became ge- | neral, that Admiral Reynolds, of H. B. M. frigate Southampton, had sent a communication to this overnment, enclosing a list of veasels now lying in this harbor, notoriously engaged in the slave — trade, and informing this government that if it did not confiscate and destroy said vessels, he should take it upon himself to do it for them.

H, B. M. steamer Cormorant captured and burnt the Brezilien bark Saota Cruz, on the 2d of Janu- Ata later period the Brazilian government received information from the at of the ince of S. Paulo, to the effect that in reality the Brezilian bark Santa Croz, bound from Santos to Kio de Janeiro, was captured by the Cormorant, and burnt off the Aleatrazes, her crew having been | put ashore. P. J. Soarez de Souza said, in his cor- respoadence, he would not pause to analyze the character of this act of vandalism. It is sufficient to notice that it violates and Mp even the act of the British Porliameat of August 8, 1845, which wes not acknowledged by the Imperial go- vernment, nor ever will be, and against which it protested, and still protests. By that act the ves | sels captured are to be tried by the High Court of Adiniralty, or by any tribunal of Vice Admiralty of Il. BM. Any vessel condemned under that act may be bought for H. B. M.'s service, or if, not bought, may be ony. dismantled, and her effects sold at auction,etc. In the case of the ‘Santa Cruz, 0 pa wes given 0 ae tribanals, bat the will and pleasure of # Cormorant was a substitute for it. | ized and instructed by an act of the Brit ml there were, | to protest, as he capture and burning of the bark Santa Craz, and pa Pi edie ogni: H. oh, MT morant, and the issue of aa order repetition of a similar occurrence; and! ore, urged a claim of indemnification to whom it may concern, for the damages caused by said capture py tpn sn saa r reviewing the contents of De Souza’s note, Mr. Hudson, the British Charge, replied, and at- | tempted a justification of the act, stating that the bark Santa Cruz was seized onaccount of being | engaged in the piratical traffic of slaves, and was destroyed in consequence of being orthy and incapable of undertaking a voyage to the nearest British Vice Aen? Court, in order to be tried, and that the captor of the Santa Cruz isa competent judge of the piratical character of any | vessel whatever; and that he is competent to de- termine in view of e: fs, whether a ves- sel with a slave deck, and fitted out for that trade, is employed or not in that piratical trade; and that | the captor of the Santa Cruz is, moreover, author- ish Parlia- ment, based upon Art. 1 of the treaty for the sup- | pression of the slave trade, concluded between | Great Britain and Brazil, Nov. 23, 1826, to proceed | with such piratical vessels as this Santa ruz, in uch @ manner as he may consider best calculated | to carry out the intention of the high contracti parties and most in accordance with public jus- ice. Mr. Hudson then expresses his surprise at the protest of De Souza, when the Brazilian govern- ment were in posseseion of all the facts in thec ase. After reviewing the contents of Mr. Hudson’s note, the Brazilian Minister, De Souza, denies that the bark Santa Cruz was employed in the slave trade py the occasion of her seizure, and he believes that Mr. Hudson cannot bring forward any proof to the contrary, inasmuch as by a notice iven by the commander of the cutter Nacega, dated 6th of January last, to the revenue officer, it appears that this cutter searched the bark Santa Cruz, anchored at Bella Villa, and cleared upon a voyage for this port, and found nothing authorizing her seizure. | He further adds that the fact of the bark Santa Cruz being employed in the slave trade would have no bearing upon the question of right, brought into consideration by the eadethgnels because, for reasons given in the protest of the imperial govern- ment, of date October 22, 1845, against the act of i 8, of the same year, reasons recapitulated and developed in many other documents and dis- cussions, the government of I. B. M. has no right, in any case, to search and detain Brazilian vessels, inasmuch as this right was never conceded to it by Brazil, a free, sovereign, and independent nation. For this reason the imperial government, con- sidering the searching and detention of Brazilian vessels by English cruisers as acts of mere vio~ lence, which it does not repel because it has not the force to repel them, has protested, and will | protest, against each of these acts of violence which may be repenieds while it never can admit, ae a reason, the first of the grounds brought fer- | ward by Mr. Hudson, viz., that the vessel was en- gaged in the slave trade. ‘he convention of November 23, 1826, (the onl; law actually existing between Great Britain ani Brozil, with regard to the slave trade,) determines | that it shall not be lawful for the subjects of the Brazilian empire to carry on the slave trade on the | coast of Africa, under any pretext whatever. From | this general proposition, the British goverament seeks to infer the right of searching and seizing | Brazilian vessels, as when it thinks fit, in cases and circumstances depending merely upon its own arbitration ; of having them tried by purely British tribunals; of making search and seizing in the ter- ritorial seas of the empire, in view of its forts, and | within its own ports; of entrusting the decision upon seizures, not to courts, but to the commanders of cruizers, giving them authority to burn them, | &e. Finally, it deduces from this general propo- sition all the conseque: which the most fertile imagination can cor ‘And this against its own declarati convention, G pulations were indispensable for the regulati those points, which she could not alone regulate without the consent of Brazil, and which would long ago have benn regulated if the propositions and demands of the British government had been more just, and had offered any security for lawfal commerce. This is proved by the instructions themselves, issued in 1844, for the guidance of naval officers of H. B. M, employed in tye suppres sion of the slave trade. They declare, * no vessel be seized under the following circumstances: —Though fraudulently assuming a flag, and en- geged in the slave trade, if she belongs to a coun- try with Which Great Britain has not entered into a treaty, granting right of search and capture for the Suppression of the slave trade.” Now this treaty, — the right of search and capture, does not actually exist, as the addi- tional convention of 1817 has expired, a fact of which the government of H. B. M. has never ex- pressed a doubt. Mr. Hudson declares, in bis note, that the captor of the Santa Craz is a com- petent judge of the piratical character of any vessel, and is authorized and instructed, by en act of the British Legislature, to proceed with slave ships accordingly as he may judge best, with a view of ensuring the extinction of the slave trade. It is exactly against this doctrine, and the facts arising trom it, that the undersigned protested, and does protest, because it is an unqualifiable | attack upon all principles of international law, and a manifest violation of the very act of Parliament | upon which Mr. Hudson rests his argument. In | order that Brezilian vessels, seized by cruizers for | being enga in the slave trade, should be tried by mixed commissions, in which, beside Brazilian judges, there should sit English judges, the exis- | tence of the additional convention of July 28, 1317, was regusite. This convention has expired. | The Brasilion Minister then uses a little plaia 2 logy nd says: Mr. Hudson alleges as a reason for Use burming of the Sant Cruz, her unseaworthi+ ness. But if the Santa Cruz was unseaworthy, how can it be maintained that she wis engaged in the slave trade, wnich requires long voyages’? If | ehe was unseaworthy, she could not be employed in the slave trade. ‘If engaged in the trade, she could not be unseaworthy. Mr. Hudson alleges both reasons, but one neutralizes the other. The correspondence, after some other poiats are enlarged turos on the seizure and detention of the Brazilian steamer Paquete De Santos, by the | steamer Kifleman, of H. B. M. service. She left Santos on the 10th of J: | and was burat off Perequé by the En: Rifleman. The public papers state, that, after a rigid search, not the slightest indication was foand that th | Paquete de Santes was destined for an | ae; for Rio, ah steamer and composed exclusivel jects of the coasting trade between the two atthe had on board passengers, and stores, a oul for not more than three days, and that the captain was so seriously ill that he could not uadertake a long voyage, as is acknowledged evem by the surgeon of the Rifleman. | Ina subsequent note, De Souza says with respect toa search made by the steamer Rifleman on board upon enteriag Kio, that ihe 23d of January last, at 7 o'clock ia the eve~ | ping, the steamer, on leaving the strait of Iiha dow Pasos, on her way to Rio, met the Ea steamer Rifleman, which, —_ herne| her bows, fired a gun and hoist was likewise done by the S.
