Letter from President Fillmore, Cnarceston, August 15,1852. ‘The Savannah Republican publishes a letter from Presi- dent Fillmore, to Hon. A. W. Chappell, President of the late Union Convention at Milledgeville, thanking the Convention for their resolutions, He says:—‘That the Union party of your State rendered most important ser- vices to thee ountry at a most critical juncture in our public affairs, none can justly deny. I can never forget the anxious solicitude with which 1 watched its progress in 1860, and the relief which I felt when I saw in its triumph, that it had given the death blow to the treason- able doctrines of secession, and had raised an imsur- mountable barrier to the spread of that dangerous heresy. Butthe necessity for such a party is dooply to be rvgret- tod, and I shall be happy to learn that it no longer ex- ists.” He concludes by hoping to visit the South soon after retiring from public life Supposed Loss of the Ship Staffordshire, of Bosten. Bosrox, August 15, 1852. Cupt, Clark, of New Bedford, irom Valparaiso and Callao, arrived at Panama, and gave to Mr. Wm. B, Little, a passenger in the Illinois, a Peruvian paper, from which the following (a literal translation) is taken :— Suwexex.—It is but a few days ago that we gave an accOunt of the shipwrecks that have occurred this year. We now have to record two others. The first is a vessel lost at the Island of Santa Maria, a place dreaded by sea- men in all times. She is supposed to bs the Amorican ship Staffordshire, bound from Boston to California, with 800 and odd passengers, [a mistake. she had only 160] all of whom it seems have escaped, with their lives, with the exception of one. By the same vessel that brought this news, we learn that the Portuguese bark Giurmaraens had gone ashore in the Bay of Coleura—everybody on board suved. Captain Clark made every possible inquiry of the pas- sengers from Valparaiso and Callao, but not one of them had heard a word of the disaster. His sister and her child were passengers in the ship, consequently he had the strongest motive for a rigid inquiry. He says, not- withstanding the report in the Peruvian paper, many of the passengers doubted the information. The Staffordshire, Captain Richardson, sailed from this port, May 3, with a large and valuable cargo, and about one hundred and sixty passengers, for San Fran- cisco, The vessel and cargo are probably insured in this city for at least five hundred thousand dollars. She was not a year old at the time of her supposed loss, having cleared on her first voyage to Liverpool August 4th, 1851, She was 1,818 tons register, and as good a ship as need to be built. Although this report of her supposed loss appears cir- cumstantially correct, yet’ we think, several reasons might be aesigned to cause a doubt, at least. In the first place, her course, after doubling the Cape, would be northwest, which would carry her far clear of the land: and moreover. all heavy vessels endeavor to give the land awide berth, in order to avold calms; but, on the other hand, she may have sustained some damage off the Cape, and may have been trying to reach Talcahuana or Val- paraiso, to refit, when she got ashore, Upon no other hypothesis can we account forher being there. She had water on board for two hundred days passage, aud provi sions for a year, and therefore could have no cause to make a port for supplies. Her commander, Captain Richardson, is one of the most correct men in personal habits that could be selected, and as an experienced and skilful sailor has few equals. Her officers and crew were also the picked men of the port, Every circumstance was in her favor, to ensure success. We will not, there- fore, believe hastily that she is lost. North Carolina Election. Baurimonse, August 15, 1852 We have returns from all the counties except Macon Cherokee, Yancey, and Currituck, and the vote stands:— for Reid, 39,479 ; for Kerr, 35117. Reid's net gain is 912 ‘The House of Commons stands, 61 whigs to 55 democrats. * Cherokee, Haywood, Tyrrell, and Macon, are yet to heat from, There will doubtless be a whig majority on joint ballot The Indian Troubles tn Florida. : Cuancesrox August 15, 1852 The Tampa Bay correspondent of the Jacksonville (Florida) Republican says, General Blake arrived there on the 26th July from Fort Myers, which he left on the 2th, after talking with Billy Rowlegs for four or five days. Gen, Hopkins arrived on the 4th, and left on the 5th to meet Billy Bowlegs. It is anticipated Billy will go with his people. Gen. Blake says he will give Billy only until September to agree to emigrate. after which if they tarry, he will call upon the sharp shooters under Gen. Hopkins to disperse them. The Indians taken by Gen, Hopkins left on the third. Incendiary Fires In Baltimore—Firemen’s Riots, &c. Bautimonn, Aug. 15, 1852 Three fires occurred in this city last night, all of which are traced to incendiaries, ‘The first fire consumed seven small dwelling houses on Harrisburg street, the second a small sohool house near Canten, and the third a stable on Schroeder street. ‘The firemen were rioting all night, in various sections of the city. Tho Columbian engine was taken from her company by the Vigilant boys, and thrown into the falls. Guns were fired, stones thrown, and many persons seri- ously injured. The Mechanical and the Patapsco, two of our most orderly fire companies, were attacked by the rowdies, and one of their members—Mr. John Gregory— wasafterward found lying on the walk, with fifteen dirk wounds on his body, and willnot survive, A man named Owen Shield, who had had a quarrel with Gregory the previous night, has been arrested on suspicion of being the assassin. Jacob Peacock and Alexander Didier, charged with burglary.anda horse thief named Connor, broke out of the jail on Saturday afternoon. Connor was re-arrested at Towsontoun, and the others have been tracked to Har- risburg. ‘The Cholera at Rochester. Rocnesten, August 16, 1852. ‘The Loard of Health did not meet to-day, consequently we haye no reports of the cholera cases. Stock of Cotton at New Orleans.—The American Consul at Acapulco. New Orrxans, August 14, 1852 The stock of Cotton, by actual count, is 7,800 bales, in- cluding 1,700 bales on shipboard, not cleared. Mr. Rice, American Consul at Acapulco, has arrived at the city of Mexico. Men Drowned. Punapguena, August 15, 1852. Noah Sturges, a colored man, captain of the sloop Mar- tha and William Stevens, was drowned yesterday, by the swamping of his boat. He belonged to the Eastern shore of Marylaud. ‘ Henry Auld, of the firm of Bishop & Auld, was drowned to-day, while bathing. His wife and children were on the shore, and witnessed his disappearance.

At a meeting of the operators on the former ling. held on Friday even- ing, revolutions were unanimously passed, endorsing his chaareter as a liberal, courteous, and eMcient superinten- dent, and expressing regret at the interruption of the Se relations that have hitherto existed between hem, Lad Orricrs.—The advertisement proclaiming oles of public lands at certain land offices ia the State of Jowa, bak been withdrawn, in uence of a recent bange by Congress fn the oF a‘fon of those dis Ine will he azain advertive oon 1 tiices shall have beou properly organised, Twenty-Two Days Later News—Sevoral Engagements—Mutiny and Revolt of a Portion of Flores’s Troops—Scizure of Tw oof his Ships by the Mutincers, &o., de, &e.

Proceoding by the ordinary steam con- Veyance, he joined the expedition, at Puna, at the mouth of the Gasyaquil river, on the twenty fourth of the last mamed month. This was an auspicious and exciting day, being no less than the birth day of Juan Hosa Flores, General in.chief, as well as the life and soul of the forces under his command. The day was observed with all ihe customary honors—firing of cannon, hoisting of flags, and military parade, from early morning up to one o’clock in the afternoon, About day-break, on the morning of the 25th, the squadron set sail for Guayaquil, Tt then consisted of the steamer Chili, the ship-of-war Esperanza, the schooner At- ravetha, the schooner Mosquito, the man-of-war brig Ad- maranka Blanco, the brig Tras Ermanis, anda large store- ship called the Leons, The Tras Ermanis mounted five guns, the Atravatha had one eighteen-pounder and two four-pounders; and the Mosquito had one six, and one twelve pounder. ‘The rest were vessels carrying guns of large metal. The fleet anchored at a distance of some five or six miles from Guayaquil, at about two o'clock in the after- noon, and the Chili was ordered back adistance of about two miles, to bring up the brig Admaranka Blanco, which had been left behind. At this period, the war steamer Enina, in thebay of Uriina, hove in sight of the Flores fleet, and was soon within shot range. She imme- diately ‘swung her broadside toward the squadron. and gave a shot from her starboard how gun, which fell far short, not reaching half way, and falling harmless, The tide being strong at the time, the ships of the squadron could not return her fire. The steamer Chili then re- turned, and. dropping the brig in tow, fired some well- directed shots at the Enina, but they did not appear to do much damage. The Enina made show of retreat then, and the Chili went in hot pursuit, the vessels discharg. ing sixteen heavy shots at each other during the run. A fort, which was well manned by the troops of, Urbina. stands about two and a t alf miles from Guayaquil, and, on coming under the shelter of this fort, the Enina suddenly rounded a headland, and left the steamer Chili exposed to the heavy fire which was } immediately opened and kept up until she retreated and Joined the squadron ‘Thns ended the,first engagement between the two great contending armics of Generals Flores and Urbina. No damage scems to have been sustained by either party, nor was there much accuracy of aim, nor precision of dis- charge, on either side Captain Wood was on board the steamer Chili, with about ferty Americans and regrets very much the loss of the services of Mr. Hicks. the second officer of that ves- sel, who was accidentaliy shot by the premature dis- charge of a carbine belonging to one of the land troops. ‘The lors of this gentleman seems to have crippled the action of thesteumer, as he appears to have been the only experienced gunner on board. On the morning of the 26th, the General ordered all the carpenters to go on board the steamer to make allera- tions, so ax to allow a more free play of the guns. Gneot the schooners, with the American company on board. was started up the river, for the purpose of getting some fresh becf and other provisions, She had not proceed. ed far when the tide set in dead against her, and she had tocome to anchor, disappointing many who were anxious ora brush with the enemy, The tide soon shifted, and shout an hour before dark the troops disembarked, and took up a Line of march for a rauche about four miles Gistant They arrived about nine o'clock at night, and were surprised at the abundance of cattle which they found there, They proceeded immediately to lasso and noose as many ay required, and about eleven o'clock at night they hastened to return to the schooner. ‘Tiis was a trying march, as the cattle were very wild, and nearly imposeible to mange. Owing to the delays, they found, upon arriving at the place of embarkation, the tide would not permit of the attempt to put the cattle on Loard that night, so they were securely tied, and the ircops, much fatigued, went on bourd ‘The party came onshore at seven o'clock next morne ing, and were proceeding to get the euttie to the boats, when a heavy fire of musketry was suddenly opened upon them by an unseen patty, Which had erept through the undergrowth of the tees and the chappnrell, to with. in sixty or seventy yards of them. ‘The Flores party had their arms stacked, and were at work. Each man imme- diately seized his musket, and, under the orders of Uap- tain Owen, retreated behind a small bluff, and returned the fire, Major Bell, the chief officer in command, then ordered Captain Owen to go on board the schooner, and see tbat the long gun was made to rake the brushwood hy being brought to bear on the shore. Before Captain Owen renched ‘the schooner for this purpose, the action was anticipated by Captain Perkins, her commander, who fired a gun, loaded with grape and cannister, amongst the bushes, the shore party pouringin a raking fire of small arms at the same time. The enemy were not tardy in returning these compli ments, us they spared neither schooner nor land party, but kept up a deadly fire. The large gun of the schooner was fired three times, and did good effect in clearing the bush. The land party then numbered only thirty, and fom the heavy fire of the enemy, it was judged they were two hundred strong Deeming it imprudent to remain on shore, fighting a hid- den enemy, the party under Major Bell emburked. a few at a time, the remainder affording a covering fire to their companions. After embarkation, the enemy showed themselves, and numbered over two hundred, ‘The man at the mast head reported to Captain Perkins that he saw five dead bodies, and that the enemy picked up and carried away twelve from the ground. One of the boat’s crew—name not known—was shot through the arm by a musket ball, and the hull of the schooner was filled with bails. The tchooner sot sail, and in an hour and a half she anchored with the sqnadron. ‘The men were ordered for duty in at midnight, and they went ashore to take possession of the beautiful hacien- da Which is called the “White House” of Guayaquil. This order was promptly executed, and the men and officers found rest, after their toil, by quartering in it that night. On the 28th, the pleasing news arrived from Guayaquil that the troops. under Major Bell and Captain Owen had, in the engagement of previous day killed thirty men. and wounded many more. This good news was more than counterbalanced by the announcement that four sailors, belonging to the Mosquito, who had gone ashoro to hunt for cattle. in another direction, were attacked by a large party of Lancaras, and two of them kilied. Tho Lan- caras cutting the bodies in pieces, ench stuck a portion upon the point of his lance, and rode through the streets exhibiting it as “the flesh ef the Floridians.”’ There was Be doubt but the other two men would share the same fate. General Flores sent orders this day for redoubled vigi- lance, a8 he expected an attack upon his land and naval forces eimultaneously ; this caused an uneasiness for the night, as the land force was very small, consisting of fifty Chillians* and the American company of Captain Owen—numbering im all only about eighty-five—whilst nearly two thousand of the enemy’s forces lay at Guaya- quil—a distance of only three miles, On the 29th of June there were five men sick in the camp. and Captain Owen was also laid up with severe headache. The Mosquito was this day ordered te drop down the river, and keep @ close look out for an expected English steamer, and to communicate, if possible, with her—as she would not hold any intercourse with the squadron— advices relative to reinforcements from Pera being ¢x- pected by the general in command ‘The English steamer, in passing up, did not communi- a Ce ah fleet or Rod Mosquito, and the re- mainder of the passed without thing of impor- eae a al je day ht of the 30th ed without an; alarm or attack. ¥ Pee of On the Ist of duly, @ small party, under the command of Lieutenant MeNeret, went ashore in search of provi- sions, said to be at # ranche about two miles distant from where the fleet lay, and upon the right bank of the river. They procured ly, and were returning to the ship, when they perceived four canoes, manned by the enemy, ready to Loy 6 their passage Lieutenant MeNeret immediately fired one shot from the long boat gun, when the enemy fled. ‘The English steamer passed down on the 2a July, at uine o'clock in the morning, but did not notice or com- municate with the Flores thet. At noon of this General Flores first perceived the critical porture of affairs, and the strength of his enemy. Ue communiented to Captain Owen that he had received (otters from Guayaquil, to the effect that Urbina had hirteen hundred men there, well fortified and armed wbilst his own forces did not ‘amount to cight hundred of whieh he could not land five hundred & man nomed Another eommantestion stated that pon, who bad ¢ i t Urbina, to produce a rovoit in the Flores camp, Thomp- son assured General Urbina that he could do it easily— that he could return to Prita upon the English steamer, and come up with forty-five recruits who were there waiting tojoin Flores, and that his influence over them was such be could make them bring about « revolt. Thompson alco boasted that he could get the American company into the ranks of the conspirators—an imputa- tion which Flores paid no attention to, and at which the gallant fellows reemed most indignant. It was alto announced, that a general attack, by land and water, would be nade on the 3d. Im consequence of theee despatches Capt Owen was ordered ashore to fortify the “White House:”” his band of thirtywere in good spirits, and when joined by some more detached troops, they numbered about three hundred for the defence of the place. They were confident they could fight one thou- sand of Urbina’s men. At this point a terrible casualty occurred, by which Flores lost nearly one-tenth of his entire foree. ‘Tho fleet lay along the shore, prepared for the dreaded attack; the schooner Atravetha. mounting # loaded eighteen and two four pounders, being nearest to the bank, and not more than five hundred yards from the dry beach, At a quarter to nine o'clock at night every man, except the guard, had retired to.rest, where they were suddenly aroused by a report like that of a thousand cannon, Upon their hurrying from their quariers, they were horrified at seeing the tragmonts of the Atravetha, and the mangled bodies of wbout thirty soldiers, fourteen of her crew, and one of Captain Owen’s company. dashing through the air, The magazine of the unfortunate Atraretha had exploded, and sive «snk in less thanone minute, All was alarm, grief, und consternation, Seven bodies were picked up from the water. five alive, but three in a dying state, Mr. Bird, one of her crew, who was wounded by a shot in the arm in the engagement of the 27th of June, was slightly hurt by this explosion also. Flores lost six officers—two captains, two first, and two second lieu- tenants— by this unfortunate catastrophe. It appeared that some of the crew were drunk, and one fired a pistol in the cabin, and the burning wadding reaching the magazine, sent him and his unhappy com- panions to an untimely grave. ‘The crew were all Americans and English, and the sol- diers Chilians. At this period, also, two of the Chilian troops (brothers) were drowned, in going from the shore to the schooner in & canoe—one fell overboard, and his brother jumped in after him, when both perished. These events threw a gloom over the entire foree. On the 8d of July, all were waiting for the threatened attack, from early pvienlog: At half past three in the afternoon, as the steamer Chili was lying alongside the storeship. to take in coal, she observed an Urbina man-of- wer steamer heave in sight, and immediately went off to meet her, The enemy anchored between a Spanish man- of-war and another foreign ship not showing celors—thus, in a measure, protecting herself, as it were, in a friendly shade. The Chile opened a fire on her, however; but she acted as ber consort did on the 25th of June, and retreat- ed. keeping up a fire all the time as she went. She was well pursued by the Chili, until she came under the batteries of the fort, andthen returned. The Urbina vessel fired seventen shots. and the Chilias many more, without apy effect on either side. Eight heavy guns were discharged from the battery. also, and they were equally powerless, This affair lasted an hour and a half, and was the second nayal engagement between Flores and Urbina. On the 4th of July, Captain Owen’s company, and all the Americans in the fleet, celebrated the glorious anniver- sary of our Independence in a becoming manner. The merican flag was hoisted, thirteen guns fired, and all the usual triumphent salutations given. On that glorious night it was determined to attack Guayaquil. by storming her battery of three thirty-two pounders. The Chili and brig Admaranka Blanco, mounting thirteen guns, were to go on this duty—the company of Captain Owen to act as riflemen, from thedburticane deck of the Chili. The foroe told off amounted to three hundred men, the rest remain- ing with the fleet. ‘The Americans vowed not to disgrace their flag upon the proud anniversary of national and human freedom. The troops started at a quarter to ten o'clock at night, and at eleven they recetvyed « shot from the battery of St. Carlos, showing that the enemy did not sleep. ‘The steamer came fu'l in abreast of the battery, and from eleven to twelve o’clock a continuous fire was kept up on both sides, The riflemen. protected only by their blan- kets, did good work. and in half an hour after coming abreast of the battery, the guns were silenced. Another battery, called the Planchada, a little higher up, how- ever, kept up a strong and regular fire, until the steam- er moyed up and silenced it also, ‘This was a great victory, but when about to reap the fruit of it, urhot came from tho direction of on American man. of- war lying near the place, and struck the Adm ranka Blanco upon her larboard quarter, This caused much confusion, and some irritation and suspicion, the other troops charging the Americans with want of good faith, whil-t they professed their readiness to go ashore and storm the fort. At this crisis, General Wright, in commend order d the steamers to drop backand join the fleet. and ad moment. perhaps, escaped for ever. ‘The cuemy fired overhead, for want of taking good range, a}l through, whilst the rifles of the Americans were Gendiy, and several balls were found wrapped in their blanket fortification in the morning. They proved them- telves trne sons of a mighty country. On the éth of July the Enina fired ineffectually at the Flores vessels. Two Americans voluntecred to go ashore ina cance. and epike the guns on the two batteries, but, when near.e cannon shot sunk the canoe, and one was drowned, the other eecaping unhurt, On this night Flores determined to make an attack by land and water, taking ecmmand of the land forces in person, At nine o'clock the fleet eniled for the place indieated, but was four hours in reaching it, an unfavorable tide, running at the rate of sever an hour, against them, The at- tack was postponed, the men resting near the proposed place of landing. ‘The morning of the 7th gave the Flores party a fine view of the city and battery of San Carlos, aad they could see Urbina’s troops at parade, About twelve o'clock. a deserter from Urbina’s camp, upproached, in a canoe, holding up his shirt upon a bay- onet, as a flag of truce. on his own part. He brought in- formation that Urbina was well aware of Flores’s inten- tion, and was prepared to receive his attack; that he had placed his cannon in a very advantageous position at the lower enn of te city,and was then fortifying a large saw mill, which they could see from the ships, with a strong and splendid breastwork. He said that they had two thousand men. and were in high courage. Upon this a council was held, and it was decided to abandon the land attack, amd make one by water aloue. runping the entire fleet right under the battery of San Carlos, and bombarding it. The troops to ly as possible, under the fire of the guns. jos in the rear. Only fifty men could land and, certain of a dangerous and deadly attack, Major Bell and Captain Owen volunteered to Ger Flores, to land first, and brave the fire of the Planchade and San Carlos, The attack was to be made at eleven o'clock the same night, but at ten two men from a place called Baba, higher up on the river, friends of Llores, sought an in- terview with him, and informed him that all the inhabit. ants of the country above the city had declared for him; but not having arms, nor any means of transportation’ they could not join him. ‘This caused the General to abandon the idea of the attack, and determine on running past the town, to give his friends an opportunity of joining him, and thus strengthen his army. On the 8th of July ali preparations were made for this hazardous mancenvie, but in the meantime the enemy fired pretty briskly upon the ships, thongh with slight in- jury. Assured by the pilot of plenty of water being above the town, Generai Flores ordered the store ship Leones to be lashed to the Chili—the store ship next the batteries— and all the fleet to proceed ax quickly as possible. As night set in, Commander Smith/of the Chili, said he knew from bis chart that it would be impossible ‘to get half a mile above the town, and that the fleet would be destroyed by the guns if it moved up into such a trap.

Meetings to appoint delegates to the Moecon Convea: tion, in addftion to those published yesterday, have beem held in Muscogee, Stewart, and Randolph counties. Im reference to the movement, the Columbus Enquirer says “What the voters of Georgi want is a leader, undet whore banner they will be estisfied to rally." {From the Savannah Republican, Aug. 12] The ecnvention of the 171 promises to be one of the largest and most respectable that has aseembled in this State for some years. Though it is emphatically a move- ment on the part of the whig masses, we observe the delegates appointed, the nawnes of many cherish: whigs, With such men in the convention. it can hardly fail to devise some plan by which the scattered forces o€ the party may be brought together, and the old whig fires once more relumed upon its long desolate altars.

This is a general rule, and the exceptions to it, if any there are, only prove its correctness. It ia perfuctfy natural that informers should belong to this low class, because no high-minded man would stoop to the betrayal of bie neighbor. There is a degree of trenshory involved in the. act which meets with vo approval except in bate natures. Itis the cowardice of a stealthy assassin who stabs im the dark, and not the courage of a brave man who faces his opponent in open day. The very idea of an informer resupposes a designing, cowardly fellow, who, like @ Beast of prey, lies in ambush for his unspecting neighbor, watching for the opportunity to betray him into the hands of his enemies.
