MOVEMENTS OF CARAVAJAL—SEIZURE OF REYNOSA —REPORTED DESTRUCTION OF THE AMEBICAN TOWN OF EDINBURG, ETC. Barone, April 10, 1868. The New Orleans papers of Sunday and Monday have been received. ‘They contain extracts from the Rio Grande Flag, of the 30th ult., which says Caravajal had again crossed the river and taken possesmon of the town of Reynora. The band of adventurers numbered sixty men, under the immediate command of Captain Norton, one of the leaders in the first movement of Caravajal. The real abject of this foray seems to have made itself manifest at the outset, as one of the Grat acts of the mon, on entering Reynosa, was to seize the two principal citi vens, the alcades or civil magistrates, and hang them up till they had extorted $4,000 dollars as a price for their lives and the security of the defenceless citizens. Arumor was current in Brownsville that the town of Edinburg had been destroyed, from some cause growing out of a new filibustior movement, but the Flag was un- able to trace it to a reliable source, Edinburg is an American town, situated in front of the Mexican town of Reynosa. The Picayune has also private letters which confirm the seizure of Reynosa, and mention a threatened attack on Edinburg. Lake Erie Navigation. Douwarx, April 10, 1853.

Affairs in Albany. OUR ALBANY CORKESPONDENCE. Aupany, April 5, 1853. The Amendments of the Constitution Passed Through the Se- nate—Probability of their Passage in the House~The People to Decide What Shall be Done, There is not the least particle of truth in the report circulated by certain mischievous letter writers, that Govornor Seymour has it in contemplation to call an ex- tra session immediately after the expiration of the present hundred days, The reason assigned is the necessity for making provision for raising funds to be apent on the ca- nals during the present year. As anxious as his Excel- lency is for the early completion of the canals, he is too shrewd 2 politician to call an extra session. He knows that no party ever yet made anything by such a move- ment. Besides, the precent Legislature have been en- gaged for three months in arriving at some conclusion. ‘The mestage sent in to both houses by hia Excellency, on Tuesday, shows his anxiety for the adoption of the Loomis tax and toll bill, or some other method for raising imme- diately about seven hundred thousand dollars. Neither his Excellency nor his friends have favored an amendment. of the constitution, and have resisted Vanderbilt's reso- lutions, from their first introduction until this moment. But as that pi bas been adopted in the Senate by a three fourths vote, there is reason to believe that a majority of the Houre will be found in favor of the amend- ment The people have been so long kept in a state of excite- ment upon the subject of complet the public works, that they now feel'ea if the mutter ehould be. dis posed of in some way or other. The Vanderbilt plan sub- mits the whole question to the people of the entire State. All localities—thore interested and those not—will, under his resolutions to amend the constitution, have sn oppor- tunity of expressing their preferences. Thoss who vote in favor of that project will consent to borrow money upon the pledge, in the first instanca, of the surplus revenues; those who vote agaivst it will be considered as favoring ibe plan of taxing the people directly, and im- poring canal tolls on the igrest lines of railcoa7s, to taive fands for the completion 0! thore public works. If the Legislature should impose a tax to replenish any deficit in the treasury, wanting for the suppor: of gevern- ment, there is no man in the State who would object for a moment to furnish his quotas. It appeers. from statements made by the financial officers of the State. that such a necessity now actually exists. If x0, then the Senate should amend the Assembly bill so as tq make provision for such deficiency by levying a tax on the State, but not ask that shippers of rodioe and merchan- ise on railroads shall be called on for their contributions also. ‘What possible objection cnn there be to the plan of subaitting the who'e question to the people, and asking them to make a final disposition of it? That is a tribu- nal from which there is no appeal ; their judgment will be final ; and the public officers having in charge those important unfinished works, will then kuow ow to pro cecd in completing them, which everybody acknowledges should speedily be. done, thereby ending a controversy more or less of a party character, which has existed ever since the idea wax conceived by the great minds in inning of the present century, of uniting the Krie ¢ Atlantic waters. It is high time that politicians were disrobed of the garment with which they have covered themselves for « reries of years. The canals are this day more powerfal in politios than any otter power in thisState, After the nine milion bill was passed, politicians of every side banded together in strong phalanxes to obtain the mo- nopoly of the contracts under that infamous scheme, Had not, those desperadoes been arretted by the Court of Appeals, a set of gourmands would have been fastened upon the central section of the State, who would have held the Stato in their bands for a quarter of » century. Let the people, then, have an oppattuaity to express an opinion on this great question. Thoy will finally settle it and after the lapse of six or cight years, the canals can be finished, and the whole subject be taken from the clutches of voracious politician: MR. VANDERBILT'S TAX BILL. [From the Albany Args, April 9 } Indge Vanderbilt introduced in the Senate yesterday— we ought, ps, to any, made an elfort to introdace— a bill to raise money by tax for the support of govern- ment, and for the payment of public creditors whos claims are not properly or constitutionally u charge on the canal revenues. é But opposition was made to the introduction of the bill by Senators friendly to the tax-and-toll affair—which is now calling out remonstrances from different parte of the State—and who appear to adhere to thit as the be all and end-all of legisIation in aid of the State Treasury. We publish Judge V.’s bill, that it may be seen what the proposed measure is, and to what an éxtremo the horents of the tax ill push their preference:— ork, reprovented in Sonate ot as follows:— Sec. 1. Insioad of the annual State tax now imposed, un- der the law of 1842, a State tax of six-tenths ofa millon each ‘dolar of the valuation of real and personal property taxable in this State, is hereby imposed for one year, to be a: ‘aod, raised and collected upon, and by the neat annu: 3088- ment and collection of taxer, in the mannor prescribed by law, to be paid into the Treasury of the State, to be there d, held and paid for tho objects in this act prescribed. Kee. 2. Of the money to be raised by he tax provided for in the first section, tho sum of $10,000 shall be for the pay- ment of canal claims which arose prior to the adop- tion of the constitution, and which were not pro- vided for in that instrument, and eannot be paid out of the canal rovenue. The further sum of $200 000, or such part thereof as may be necessary, shall be for the payment of ol nthe Treasn: for work done and materials de- livered to the State, w the direotion of the canal com- missioners and engine n part execution of certain oom: tracts gntered into by State , on the part of the State, in December, 1851, in pu ance of an act passed July 10, 1851, chapter 486; but no part of said money shall ‘be paid or applied for, or upon any work done or materials dolivored, under color of any contract. after the eon: tractor or claimant had-notice to auit work from an engi- neer of canal commissioner, or was othorwise informed that said act had been decided by the Court of Appeals to be un. constitutional; nor shall any such payment be deemed a recognition of the validity of any such contract, and the balance of the said monoys so raised by tax shall be paid into the treasury for the use of the general fund, and for the pay- ment of the demands which now are, or may become, oharge- ate oe ja act shall take offect immediately. D ST. MARY'S FALLS. SIIIP_CANAL ARO®. Wom the Albany Journal April Senator Babcock introduced resolutions, vome years ago, calling upon Congress to take ateps for the con- struction a ship caval around the Fallsof St. Mary, uniting Lake Superior with Lake Huron. Congress acted upon that suggestion, and we may now lock forward with confidence to the completion of that great work. Among the parties who have undertaken this enter prire, are Governor Fairbanks, of Vermont, Mr. Corning, of this elty, and several large capitalists in New Yorkand oston, Benator Platt introduced o bill resterday, giving this company a corporate existence; withont which they can not rafely go on with the enterprise. It was ordored to a third reading, and wili, we hope, #oon become a law, THE NEW POLICE HLT. The Senate Committee have reported certain amend- ments to the New York Polics bill.

Ru- fus Elmer was a member from Massachusetts. Several gentlemen from IHinois were added'to the committee. An old gentleman remarked that he was glad to have a dele tion from Illinois, but hoped they did not belong to the inlature, as he was certain no spirits would have any- thing to do with the Illinois re. A. phic dixpatch was received from Bro, Britian, saying it he could not attend, being “‘submerged'in business.” Aprn Balou a series of resulutions, which were afterwards adopted, and were, in substance, as follows: —That the existence of spirits soparate from the body bas been a fundamental article of belief in all religions; that occasional manifestations of spirits have always been admitted; that modern manifestations are as legiti. mate as those of former times; that unbelief in modern spiritualism is to be traced to the same cause at unbelief; that spiritual manifestations take place accord- ing to laws; that many manifestations are imperfect and not reliable; that every manifestation should.be judged by its intrinsic merit, and not by its assumptions; that when 6) direct or recommend bad conduct they shall be di ed; that these revelations lead to improvement in life; that there is coming a new order of society; that contempt, and ancers, and avathemas are indications of Sadduceeism, Sensualism, Phariseeism, Sectarianism and Senay and that they, «.¢. spiritualists, would live ow na Seton hen celebrate eNOS of if ap ‘aasene,’” hit or miss, Mr B commentel at some lenge upen these doctrines. He believed, there were genuine: communications from spirits, but not that eve:ything purporting to be, really is from spirits. He seemed to think that those who refuse to believe avythng and tho e who swallow everything were in about equalerror. Mr. B.’s speech an effective one, characterized by general fairness and candor, and containing many manly senti- ments. He said Rervs Exurr added a sort ef endorsement. that he had had, upon an average, as many as two or three interview: ck with epirite—thet he had detected them. in many mistakes and errors, and even falsehoods, but that he had never heard from them any principles or doctrines at variance with those contained iu Mr, Ballou’s address. Whether this was intended as a complimeat to- Mr. Ballou or the spirits we did not understand. In tho afternoon, Henry C. Wricut, the very easy and. pleasart specker ‘whom we have mentioned, occupies some time in dotining bis position. Ho was followed by a gentleman who explained why the revelations of spirits are 0 uncertain, and often erroneous. The separation of the truth from the error is necessary to furnish employ- ment for our faculties, and prevent them from rustiag out in indolence. After some remarks from. Rev. J. 8 LOVELAND. as to the modus cpérandi in Charlestown, Mr. 8 ©. Hewitt edi- tor of the New Eva, took the stand. After remarking ing that though table Lippings were very well in, their place, we were yot to look for something higher. He an nounced that the sp'rits had turned their attontion to practical matters, and that Roger Sherman had given & course of trelve lectures upon architec ure, through John M. Spear, medium who was a remark ably good, med.um, ‘and by whom no serious errors had ever been communicated According to these lectures houses are to bo built of a material formed by inixing with sea water, in equal proportions, iron ore, pulverized granite, fine clay, acd sand from the sea shore. The howe is to be modeled after the human boy when in a sitting posture, and the family are to reside in the apartment which corresponds to the eavity occn pied by the brain. Wo are not quite certain whether by this is meant the upper story. for it was not very appa rent where the brains of the er aud roms of his ecmpanions were The house is to be warmed ina way revcaled In a course of twelve lectures from Howard, upon Beneficent Machinery. No fuel is to be used, und the system is according to the arterial system of the eircuia tian of the blood. A framework is to be built in the barement, of the same materials as the house. A large boiler is to be placed in the framework, and in the boiler, s jar made of sinc and tin, with two wires, like arms, and five fingers, tipt with brimstone. Linseed oil is to be poured’ into the jar, and the wires are to be rubbed, and, somchow—the speaker did not exactly understand how —perpetual beat is to bo produe- <4. Villoges are to be built under the new dixpensation, as follows :—First, a circular pa‘k is to be laid out; and in it a circular church. and a circular school house, ‘with a triangular roof ever all, are to be built. Theso are to be surrounded by a circular street, and then the houses are to be built incircles about them, Wo are at first an- gular, being in the first stage of developement, bat the second form is circular, and when we come to take the second step in the advancement of art, we shall have pearly all arrangements circular These discoveries aro not paten ed, and those to whom they have beca reveal ed do not wish to monopolize them, #0 any one who wishes, ia at liberty to build » house and -varm it, (if he cap.) oF lay out a village according to those plane. Mr. Howitt said that if he got a good number of new sub- scribers, he would give a plan of the house in his paper, and if he received a larger number, would | publish a pee spective view. If he bad only eaid he wonld build such a house, or live in it, he would hardly fail of obtaining enough subscribers. Jouy h. Srran gave an account of his sucvess ia the healing art. At first, his hand would bo moved towards the diseased person, who would be thereby relieved. ‘Then he would be impressod to prescribe remedies, but he never reccmmended medicines. In difficult cases, the spirits would seem undecided, and would appoint a day for consultation. He would accocdingly propare a large room, and at the time appointed the spirits would attend in large numbers and deliverate upon the caso. He atated that several cures bad been effected. Inonecaee, a small woman had gained ten pounds of flesh in a week. ‘The spiritual dramatic performance, which elosed tha exercises of the afternoon, wss a curiosity. A request was made for oll to leave the room who would not be able to sit it through, as the door would be locked, and neither ingress or egress allowed. The mediums were called to the front seats, and to the stage; all sat down, and thea followed a long'and solemnsilence. Then Rev. J. M. Spear begen to go to sleep, his ight hand rateed and held trem- ulously upwards. Then he arose, advanced slowly to- wards the centre ot the stage, and enddeoly put both hands to his face and burst out intoa most Ingubrious bellowing; and os nearly as we can recall it, we will give some of the first of the performance, as a specimen : Mr. Senar—(Hanes to his faco—faco red as a cabbage.)

Brwwert, Fae., Epitor or tas New York Herarp :— Sir—In the Sunday edition of the Heraun, under the head of “Collision on the North River,” it is stated that tho screw steamer Andes run into the Jorsey City ferry boat Colden The reverse, if anything, is the fact. At tho time of the collision the engines of the Andes were ropes and reversed, with her helm hard a starboard, and her thtee signal lights flying. The ferry boat was hailed from op the Andes several times previous, and told to ut her belm a port, to which uo attention was paid, nor id abe alter her course or stop hor engino, but kept going ahead, and, to all appearance, with a fall determination to cross the bow of the Andes, which they partially suc: ceeded in doing, as the jibboom of the Andgs caught the ferry boat's after pilot houre, her torward Part running clear. Many of the passengers that were on board the fe boat came on board the Andes at tne time, and were Joud in their censure of the persons who had charge of the ferry boat, saying if there had beon any attention pald to the several warnings they received trom on board the Andes the accident would not have occurred.

As the placers become exhausted, however, this method of mining mugt of a nooeesity be adopted, and not till then will the gold fields of Australia prove a permanent source of wealth to those whe depend upon them for their reve- nues. Several correspondents from the gold fields complain that exaggerated: reperts of the productiveness of the placers are published in the Melbourne and other papers, which have a tendency to delade many into tho belief that they can do better by, than by following their 1 ia ee eye “cities, thes causing much distress apd puficring among the new comers. ) is carried on to a considerable Burb rapgy nee ins! with the most daring im- punity..
