VALPARAISO, Sept. 14, 1852. Wrade— Political Affairs— Another Revdution Aan- ticipated—General Flores—Amerivans in South Americo—Steam Navigation, §.. §c- Business is extremely dull with us, money light, and many vessels lying idle in our harbor. This waay be partially attributed to the approach of the diez y ocho,” or 18th September, the anniversary @fChilian independence. This people completely yeverse the old rule of ** business before pleasure,” fer they never allow any matter, however important, $o interfere with a procession or # masquerade. In a political point of view, thiags look rather The revelutionists, although apparently erushed by their defeat at Longomilla, lack neither the means ror inclination to rise whenever an oppor- tumity presents. The spirit of disaffection is strong, particularly in the southern provinces, owing to the asbitrary measures of the new government, the par- tiality shown to certain sections of the country, and @he undue influence exercised by the priests. This zepublic, so called, is as complete a military des- potism as that of France and yet they have so little eonfidence in their troops. that they do not allow them to parade on the coming anniversary for fear ef ancmeute. It is confidently believed by many @bat an outbreak will take place on the 18th, and ¢here is more reason to suppose so from the fact that a row occurred the night befere last in San- , when the insurgents stormed the “‘ Cuartel,” were only defeated after three hours sharp hting. -: arrived here about two weeks since, com- pletely betrayed, as you are aware, * Praetorian band” His arrival caused no excite- ment here, and he has retired into the country, with | the intention, I believe, of keeping quiet. 3 It is truly mortifying to an American to notice the low es tc in which his country and country- men are bh ere.

English habits gnd ideas prevail, and John Bull's childron here | Jose no opportunities of increasing their own in- Buenee and lessenizg ours. An American, short time since, applied to this ernment for permission to establish a line of om- Bibuses in Valparaiso, and the only person opposing it was an Englishman, who thought it wrong that such acontract should be given to an American. A line ef American steamers, between this city and Pana- ma, should on every account be encouraged by our rnment. It would greatly increase our in- oa here, and protect our citizens from many out- 8;and such @ line would pay the owners liberally athalf the price of passage now charged by the Eng- Bish boats. ‘ We are most ably protected by our excellent Min- iwler, Mr. Peyton, who never puts up with the least wrong; but we require the constant presence of an American man-of war. ‘The manner of administering justice here is an- ether interesting feature in this model republic The Judges of the principal tribunal here, (the Consulado,) are merchants, who are, of course, frequently in- @irectly interested in their own decisions.

Then there isan appeal to a court in Santiago; but ‘this process is enough to ruin any man of moderate Zortune.

A. undron, PELLION, On board the Penelope, Guayaquil rivers17th Aug., 1852 ‘There seems to have been a number of different causes of difficolty between the Ecuadorians and the French, at Guayaguil; and. from what we can gohe, we think the latter are-in fault as mnch as the former. In the first place, there ie no doubt that the French population sym- pathized with Flores more than any other class of foreign residents; we know that the French squadron sa- luted the flag of Flores within the Ecuadorian limits, when they knew, that he was warring against the Ecuadorian government; to say the least, asa ‘tiean and according to ite decision, as an outlaw of raid ettablished government, which they fully recog- nized as such—we know that the commander of one of their sloops of war compelled an Ecuadorian pilot torun his veerel up to cogent in the night, when he knew that the city was under martial law; and we are in- formed that the French consul was in t! sending despatches to, and communi ig regularly with, Flores, On the other hand, we are aware that the French rest- dents of Guayaquil ‘are geverally more ‘unpopular there than those of any other foreign nation—tl French residents towards Flores and his partisans, naturally excited the feeling: of, the inhabitants of Guayaquil in an unusual degree ; and therefore an ebu- lition of popular indignation afver a banquet was not so dire an offence, not so grievous am insult, as it might be | represented. ‘As to the non-compliance of the Ecusdorian govern. | ment with the demands for satisfaction, the fact that a request had been formally made to the French govern- ment, for the recal of M_ De Monthbolon, as well as the violation of martial law, by a commander in the French squadron, hag somewhat to do with it. BOLIVIA. [From the Panama Echo, Oct. 12] The press is filled with statements respecting the eon- epiracy (which has been discovered, and attribu citizens of Santa Cruz) for poisoning Gen. Belzw. Cols. Claudio Rada, and Jose Pinto, Dr. Didnysius Barriente, ex-Minister of the Supreme Court, aud Col. Montalvo, | were pressed by complicated-vircumstances in that affair, and were to be tried by a court martial. ‘The government has decreed an increase of four reals on every mark of silver that {s mined. Bark has fallen to a yery low rate. The correspondence of El Comercio de Lina in La Paz, attributes this disaster to the bad management of Belzu, who believing he oould make a profit to thore trafficing in this article with the enormous price to which it had been raised, has rained entirely a great source of national wealth, of which here- after they will accuse him and his mcapable ministry. MARKETS. Varranaiso, Sept, 14—During the Inst fifteen days | there has been but little business done in manufactured goods and the sales which have taken place are mostly for local conrumption in the principal staple articles. ‘There has eearcely been avy demand for export. except- ing come smali orders which have been executed for Bolivia, Prices remain much the same sinee our last England except the Juverna which arrived, and sailed for Lima. New prints, shirting stripes, and some few articles, continue in fuir demand. some little activity has taken place, and prices of some articles are firm and stocks low. In American goods there bave been no arrivals for this market and few trans- actions have taken place. thegsales effected having been for reteil at last quotations, and the market continues to be well assorted. The General Pickering proceeded with her cargo to California, and the Melhuish satled with copper ore to Baltimore American provisions of all classes are still ecarce and of some kind the market is en- tirely bare. From Germany two cargoes, the Triton end the Johannes & Elena, have arrived. but the sales from these vessels have been moderate.

To which the Provisional Director made the fol- lowing appropriate reply :— Mr, Minister—The tine yublic has always be- held in the le of the United 81 . & touching exam- ple of what importance liberal institutions are to its pros- perity and sggrandizement, It has beheld it with the greater interest in that said nation bel: to the great American family.

The government of the Con- federation sees with special pleasure the interest where- with the United States desire to draw closer and closer the friendly relations that are founded on a perfect con- formity of social institutions ; and receives as a proof of said interest, the fact of so important a mission having ‘been confided to your Excellency, who has merited the confidence of a high (peer near another Ame- tion with your Excellency of the very worthy rep: esentative of the United States in this republic, isa new motive of satisfaction to its govern- ment It will always afford me satisfaction, Mr. Mi- nister, to render available my social position, that the union of the Argentine Confederation with the United States of North America may daily be drawn closer, for the reciprocal benefit of the two countries, ADDITIONAL FROM CALIFORNIA. Miners’ Convention. The Convention which assembled at Jamestown, in Tuo- lumne county, on the 18th of September, adopted a plat- form, expressive of their views, objects, and as a basis for their future action. It will be seen that they have recom- mended & State Convention of the Miners to be held in Sacramento city, on the 15th of November next, to re- commend Congress for the adoption of measures to pro- ect the mineral Iands of this State from foreign emigra- tion, and also for a general system of government of tae lands, ‘There appears to bea great feeling throughout the mining region, and particularly in Tuolumne county, in relation to the hordes of Chinese and foreigners gener- ally who are working in the mines. The subject has be- importance, as to become a princi. been nominated warm interest in the The Sonora Herald take bodied in the resolutions, which are considered as a plat- form, ‘The result of the State Convention at Sacramento ‘The following embraces That it is the interest of this State, and of the whole Union, to take such measures as will preserve to Califor. | nia. for the longest possible period, its present position as a bountiful and bappy home for the immigrant from the older State: That the rich reward which labor commands in this State, and the proportionate profits which the tradesman and the merchant likewise enjoy, being the source from | which we derive the rich stream of emigration from the | | older States, which is now flowing westward towards this country, are not circumstances Which we, who are favored, should alone cherish and commend, but are rich national Llessings. which should be fostered and not destroyed. ‘That the mineral lands of California, being of limited extent. and of unsurpassed ricbness, and having been purchased with the blood and treasure of the American | people, should rightfully be set apart by the general gov. | ernment for the exclusive benefit of American citizens, | and persons elligible for citizenship, who shalihave de- clared their intentions of becoming such. That we are in favor of the present naturalization laws | of the Cnited States, and recognise in them the proper and just means to carry out the principles for which Washington and our revolutionary fathers fought and bled. That we do not reeognise cither the legality or the justice of extending the benefit of those nuaturaliz ition jaws beyond the intention oftheir framers, and of the fathers of the American Union, so as to include the mot- ley races of foreigners from Asia, Polynesia and South | America. That although we have reason to believe that the well- known and often declared will of the laboring classes of this State in relation tothe introduction of any peon or Coolie system of labor will forever prevent the legalization cf any such system, yet we daily see around us the evi- dences of an ‘insidious policy, heretofore characterizing the government of this State, by which whole hordes of degraded, dark-colored and worthless Ixborera, of mon- | grel race and of barbarous education, are allowed, and even invited, to come hither merely to rob the rightfal owner of his dearly bought heritage. That it ia the duty of the Legislature of this State to pass such Jaws as sre constitutional and proper, (such as @ tax of $5 for hospital purposes upom each such emi- grant. or in any other way that they may see fit,) ia or der to impede and obstruct the emigration of the last mentioned cless of forefguers into this State. ‘That as Congress has made no provision to protect the mining interest in California. it becomes the duty of the people to take measures themselves to save the State from the effects of the ruinous immigration of foreigners, who threaten to overwhelm the whole Jand with the vast hordes which are daily arriving upsn our shores, and, as @ patural consequence. to seize upon the rich treasures of the State. which rightfully and properly helong only to the citizene of the Union, who have purchased the coun- try. and whose representatives the citizens of California at this time may justly and properly be considered ‘That our representatives, when elected, be reqaested to use their utmost endeavors to accomplish the repeal of any act of the Legislature of this State authorizing or li. censing the working of any foreigners in the mineral lands. Execution of the Notorious Yankee Jim— His Dying Speech, &c. A correspondent of the Som Francisco Heralt, writing from San Diego, September 18, gives the tollowimz account of the execution of the notorious Yankee Jim :— You are aware that Yankee Jim was sentenced to be hung this day between the hours of ten and three o'clock.

He ie very inte ligent. speaking fluently aud with ease, seme half a dozen different lauguages. “Yankeo” was executed at two o'clock The crowd present was not great. The prisoner addressed the crowd as follows :—“ die an fpnocent man; Lam not guilty of the crim hI have been couvicted; my trial has not beem a fair one; the judge did not act right; I have a word to say on + the subject of vigilance committees, and the effects flow- ing from thei: the reeults are, that Sen Francisco bas been burned twise and Storkion once the hanging of Lyons in that pla helped to fire Stockton are now li ty.” (casting a Figuiticant look at some of the crowd), ‘I have always been @ friend to the Amerisans, and have done more good in my life time than iajury, Tam an in- nocent man ani bid you all good-bye.” Here the sheri drove off, leaving the prisoner suspended choking in the air.

SOME ACCOUNT OF THE CRIME AND THE CRIMINAL. Charles, or as he was universally called, Charley Beudder, a colored man, was executed on Friday last at Riverhead, the county town of Suffolk, L.I. | The crime for which he suffered was the wilful mur- | der of Mrs. Robbins, and was committed at her | own cottage in Comac, in the township of Hunting- ton, in the month of March last. Charley was @ native of Huntington, and lived nearly all his life in the immediate vicinity, or else- where on the island. At the time of the mygder he was an ostler in the employment of Mr. Oliver Conklin, who keeps an inn at Comae, and being an excellent groom, was well known to all the gentle- | men, inhabitants, and travellers on Long Island | but (as didsome othersof his family, unfortunately,) | he always bore very indifferent character: He was not completely black, but was rather a mulatto, and showed some signs of Indian blood, with ajvery intelligent, but crafty, expression of countenance. He was about six feet two inches in height, and at the time of his execution , was thirty-five years of age. Those acquainted with him from his boyhood, scarcely thought him capable of committing such a heinous offence as murder, though he had been celebrated asa potty thief. Buffalo robes, blankets, and other articles, were frequently missing where he had been em- ployed as ostler, but dogs were more particularly the objects of his desires. All these he would often (having stolen them) give away, and his appropria- tiveness was for a long while considered more as a “weakness” than any symptom of deeply-seated de- pravity. He was, however, at an early age, con- victed ef highway robbery, and served out a term of seven years in the State prison. While there, his conduct was very untractable, and he was conse- quently detained after the expiration of the original gontence. Since his liberation he has proceeded in a very incorrigible style, though he was, by reason of his skilfulness in the management and grooming | tian of horees, always enabled to obtain a good service. A brother of his is at present an inmate of a State prison, and another died in the jail where he him- | self was confined, under cirgumstances which will be | related hereafter. i The victim of the crime which he has just ex- Pisces was Mary Robbins, the wife of a la- orer at Comac. Her body was found tied by a cord to the bed post, the throat having been cut, and the person exhibiting other marks ef vio- lence, whieh led to the supposition that an- other crime had been previously perpetrated, or at least attempted. The prisoner was known to have been in the habit of going to her cottage, and ‘was arrested on suspicion; but, as he continued to do till the eleventh hour, he denied his guilt While in prison, he told another with whom he could com- municate, to go, as soon as he could get out, tomcer- | tain door of Mr. Conklin’s barn, over which he would | find concealed a pocket-beok containing twenty shil- lings. That person communicated the fact to Mr. Conklin, and the pocket-book was found as descril ed. This was immediately identified as one belong- ing to the murdered woman, and its contents corres- | mded with a sum she was known to have had in er possession. This circumstauee was the principal evidence relied on at the trial in the September term of the Court of Oyer and Terminer. MYSTERIOUS OCCURRENCE. Shortly after his committal for trial, a brother was incarcerated in the same jail, on some charge of lar- ceny. One day some cakes were brought to them. This was afterwards, the brother sickened and died very suddenly, and a notion has since become prevalent in that of the country that an attempt was nade to poison the prigoner Charles, and that his brother received the fatal dose by mistake. A coroner's in- | quest was holden, however, and the body buried with- out anything further being divulged, and it was net until afterwards that the suspicion arose. CONDUCT IN JAIL. ‘ The wretched man, from the period of his arrest, has persevered in a most determined and dogged eill upon the subject of the charge, and has al- ways astumed a most revolting air of indifference. On the trial, he diverted himself by humming a | tune, and striking his hand on his knee, in a man- ner common to his race; and his condemnation and sentence made little or no difference, except that towards the close of his days his conduct became more ecoentrie, and his health failed him. He de- clined all religious consolation, and showed, in some cases, strong feelings of an SEY towards the clergy, but always expressed his readiness to die, with a stoiciem he preserved to the last moment. He would not allow his hair, nails, or beard to be cut, but allowed them to grow to a great length. Once, for a long time, he adhered, rh ly, to a determination to starve himself, and refused all his food, which accumulated in his cell; end then, changing his mind, he devoured it ravenously, in such @ quantity that, had suicide been his object, and his organization that of an ordinary man, he would have accomplished his aim by the contrary means; even ag it was, a serious illness ensued. These attempts he seemed to have abandoned, but there was some ridiculous | story afloat about his trying to kill himself by eat- | i ttles and glasses, which he alluded to and de- | nied, when under the fatal tree. His dislike to the priests was principally directed | against Mr. Tibbles, a Methodist preacher of River- head, who sought eeveral pene ef seeing him, bat the convict always retused, in such fashion as this :—Minister—‘‘ Well, Charley, how do you do to day?” ~Charley—‘* 1 suppose you'd like to know.” Minister—‘‘ Well, I would.” Cuarley— * Thate you; and I wish you would keep away.” Minister—* Why ? I never injured you, and ——’’ Charley—** I know that; bus I dislike you; and I wish you would keep away, for Jesus sake!’ Not- withstanding this strong appeal, Mr. T. did not ev- tirely comply with his request, until the sheriff and jailor excluded him. Mr. Lockwood, pastor of the Congrega Church, he said, was a gentleman, and his visits he permitted—but they were of little avail. It seemed | thet his spirit was, unhappily, too obdurate to de- | tive any consolation from the reverend gentleman's preaching. Prayers he would not have, but said they might p-ay for him somewhere else, if they had | a mind to, but he didn’t want them. The evidence, as stated above, being considered by some few, in conjunction with his persistent avowals of innocence, somewhat weak, the idea of 2 petition for a commutation was suggested to him, but the convict replied—** Oh! if F have any friends | | here, don’t Jet them do that, for God’s sake. Don’t send me to the State prison—I’d sooner be hung.” PREPARATIONS FOR THE EXECUTION—VISIT To THE m CONDEMNED CELL On Thursday mornin, Sheriff, arrived from his residence at Greenport, and the preparations for the execution were completed In ® small yard adjoining the fu a gallows was ereeted precisely after the model of those used in New York, of great strength, but of plain pine wood; sud a boarding being placed in the front and year to the height of about twenty-five fect, a space little more than gufficient for the occasion was en- @osed, completely screened from the view of the merely idle or morbidly curious gazer. On the keeper an prisoner, and remarking his time was short, he roplicd-—‘ It’s none too short; I wish it was coms.” Yo a clergyman, howover, he said, It was so short that he wanted it all to himself” He wasstrangely desirons of solitude, and, at his own request, re- | mained alono all night. Our reporter visited him in the cell on Thursday afternoon, and againon the morning of the day | which was to close his earthly being. He was politely afforded this opportunity by the Sheriff, The appoarance of the to the right. who accompanicd him. firet summons he merely replied be was a On one gentioman asking—"Do you not know me?” | he replied, “Oh! yes, Mr. ” and came forward.

He did not wish to see any one particularly, aad soon He would not talk at all about the crime; and | said, “They were all cruel --He hoped thy woul be hanging any one else forit.” In one instance he showed, at least, thas ho was moro rational than. those who are supposed to be of more intelligent nature, and are certainly blessed with better means of improvement. A man, and one deeply imbued with aod & ie a ern . inh eee Cat pean of cay punishment, spirit -—ob- d an interview, and pe of ood taste and common humanity, proceeded to al that poor dark intellect with his absurd aad blasphemous visions, telling him, that, by means of the Pprttual mcdleste, © be would bornish es apa in about ten or twelve days.” With the te own approbation and request his further visits were, of coutse, interdicved by the sheriff. y THE MORNING OF THE EXECUTION—PARTIAL CON+ FESSION AND PERSEVERING HARDIHO@D. On the fatal morning, ‘‘ Charley,” as every one in the town continued to call him, arose quite well, and ate his broakfast as usual, but did not wish te see anyone. Considerable numbers eame into the town, and by the freight train, from Greenport, ar- rived the Suffolk Guards (Company 7, Hegineal 16, nO as State mie) sone ry a eorge Lyons, to whose excellent management citizens were chiefly indebted for the excellent order preserved throughout the exciting occasion. The influx arising from this cause and political atherings has nay overfiooded the towa, but, , Mr. Corein’s hostelry—the Suffolk Ho- tel—affe more accommodations, and 2 better furnished table, than are generally to be found in towns of the size of Riverhead; and even those ebliged to remain till the next day among his good cheer, bore the delay with Chris- fortitude. Among the new eomers was Mr. Edward Floyd, of Huntingon, for whom the Sheriff, in compliance with the prisoner's re- quest, had sent a day or two before; and those who Were aware of it, were in anxious expectation that his interview would bo productive of # full confes- sion. This, hovever, was not the case, and ever what was said was (conformably to a promise given: to the convict) kept secret from the public till after wards. It was merely this—‘ That they need not trouble to hang any other man for the murder of Mary Robbins.” Mr. Floyd was a good deal af- fected; but Charley Would say no more, exce he might want to seo him again, He what time he thought he was to be hang, and Mr. Floyd told him he understood about haltpast ono. We visited the prisoner again shortly after this interview, and found him looking worse than the oe day, but preserving the same bearing. He had now removed his shirt, and with a piece of sack- tng ore over his shoulder, ‘*to keep him warm,” ashe said, he looked a perfect Caliban. He said | he did not want to see any one, but would not mind seeing Mr. Lockwood, That gentleman was accord- ingly sent in, but their conversation amounted to no more than an inquiry whether acortain letter, meceasver piven, had been sent. Ho still resolutely Cee ie aid and consolation ; as befere, he said, “They might pray if they’d a mind to—he didn’t want them ” _Bhortly after twelve, he sent again for Mr. Floyd. Now, surely, we were to have a full confession—but no; sll he said was, ‘I am Fong todie game, and: never will acknowledge it I mean to deny it on the gallows, as stout as ever, and you must pledge yo' word yt never tell any one what I tell you, till after] am gone.” On getting that assurance, he said, ‘ Well, I killed her—that’s enough.” On Mr. Floyd saying he did not think he could continue to deny it, he said—** Yes, I will; I'll brave it out to the last.”? before one o'clock, preceedi Tho Suffolk Guard, shortl the were conducted with great regularity andas much solem- nity as possible—al} religious exercigos, even te the reading the funeral service, being, by his own ex- press desire, dispensed with. Contrary to expectation of all, he ‘“‘did brave it out to the last,” and never quailed or faltered while they clothed him in the white we clothes and cap, which painful operation being coneladed, % and said he wanted his dioner. That being brought, he ate a — of meat and vogetablon, and aa afterwards submitted, without any seemin, sition, to be pinioned, so as to leave his liberty. In the same manner he walked to the yard, surveyed the preparations with a look of in- ifference, took his position porfectly erect on the fearful spot, and cast an unflinching look at the few that wero admitted within, who were nearly con- fined to those whose presence was required by law. He shook hands with those who appronehed for the papers and even smiled, nay, almost laughed. r. Clark then read to him’ distinctly the war- rant, which he had before declined to hear, but which he made no ebjection to when told it was necessary. In reply to the question whether he had anything iw fy, he said, ina clear voice, and with a firm look, HIS LAST WORDS, as follows:— Well, gentlemen, I don’t kaow as I’ve got anything to say but what I've said already. I have said it—I’m innocent. I know nothin, about it; but that makes no odds. If!’m te die, I’! die. ButI’ve done nothing since I’ve beon in here, though Mr. Edwards says I've eat up a dozen look- ing glasses and I don’t know how many bottles (al- Juding to a story before mentioned). Til save all the lives | can; [ can’t save but one; I wishI could. Tf I’m to die, I'l! di Good bye, (and, shaking hands with the Sheriff.) furewell, sir.’ He then turned his head, and in consequence of his height a delay of a few moments took piace in adjusting the cord. Some ofthe spectators averted their eyes; but his retained their fixed glance, until the cap was pulled down. A broad axe was handed to the Sheriff, and the blow was struck which severed the retaining rope and tke thread of the unfortunate man’s Jife at the same instant. With a few con- | yulsive heavings, bat no violent struggle, he passed into eternity. The following gentlemen attended as the witness- es, required by the statute:—Albert Rogers, Henry Gardiner, and John Rose, of Southampton; John R. Smith, and John M Swezy, of Brookhaven; Walter Soudder. of Islip; Gilbert Carll, and Ed- vard Floyd, of Huntingdon; Orlando H. Gardiner, of Smithtown; Samue! Phillips, Henry H. Terry, | and James Clark, of Southold; and Austin Rose, of | Southampton—a!l of whom signed the prescribed certificate, and handed it to the County Clerk, was also present. The clergymen in attendance were the Revorends whe , | Mr Clark Lockwood, and L CO. Lockwood, both Beaker of Congregational churches in this neigh- orhood: and the physicians were Benjamin D.
