Stratton, (formerly of New ‘York city,) has been arrested, and is undergoing his trial, agreeably to the laws of the country. The evidence against him is purely circumstantial, but so clear that Ibe can hardly escape, and will, undoubtedly, be convicted and executed. The public authorities have acted in a mest praiseworthy manner, manifesting every disposition to imvestigate the matter thoroughly, and punish the guilty. ‘The administration of the laws im Costa Rica affords a happy contrast with that of some of the neighboring re- publics.

ARRIVAL OF THE PROMETHEUS, Additional California Intelligence. The steamer Prometheus, Captain Cburehill, from San Juan del Norte and Charleston, with 221 passengers, arrived early yesterday morning. She arrived et San Juan on Tuesday, the 29th ult., and left on Thursday evening, the 31st, at 5 P.M. and arrived off Charleston bar on Thuriday, at § P.M., in six days and three hours. She left Charleston at 4 o'clock, P.M., having touched there for coals, and arrived at her dock in fifty-eight hours from that port. ‘The steamer Pacific's passengers reached San Juan del | Norte in the short period of fifteen days, all in perfect | health, having left San Francisco on the morning of the | 15th ult., 400 in number, for New Orleans and New York. We are indebted to Purser Lord for the latest news. Perfect harmony now prevails between the inhabitants of San Juan del Norte and the agent of the Nicaragua Transit Company, and passengers are transported across the route with unprecedented facility. We published in yesterday’s Herat the details of the | California news brought by the steamship Illinois, but our limited space compelled us to leave out a number of nteresting items, which we give below with others re. ceived by the Prometheus :— REGULARITY or CLurrER Sars —The Alta California says the passages of our clippers have got to be so regular, that | if the day of their departure from either Boston or N.

The Count de Boulbon is descended from one of the old royal families of France, and served with much distinction in Algiers, where his chivalric disposition induced him, for the sake of amusement only, to offer his services to the Duc D’Aumale, who placed him on his own staff. In speaking of his Sonora expedition he says : “I had devoted more than a year in preparing the execution of this enter- prise, which was to open emigration to a new place. I saw in Sonora the foundation for a new California, not for the selfish interests of one nation, but free and open toail who might seek it to earn a livelihood, far from the narrow ard over-populated countries of Europe.” He asserts positively that his company had acknowledged rights in Sonoya, and only drew the sword in self-defence. ‘They were not the aggressors, and all the trouble was brought about by Mexican jealousy and rapaeity. MARKETS IN THE INTERIOR. SACRAMENTO, March 12.--The week's transactions have been limi'ed and unsatisfactory. The only article show- ing the slightest activity was flour.

Marysviue, March 12.—The business of the past week has been exceedingly brirk, and avast amount of mer- chandire sent to the mines.

The attention of the press seems to be entirely directed to the shipping interest. The splendid clipper Sovereign of the Seas, at Honolulu was visited on Tuesday, Feb. 8, by his Majesty and suite, who spent an hour or two on board, and examined the ship in detail, with surprise and delight. His Majesty was accompanied on board by ail bis ministers, H. B.

DC 1 City Loapector’s Office, April 9, 1860 Telar The Mexican Beundary Commission, 70 THE EDITOR OF THE NEW YORE Wasmneron, April 6, 1853. My attention bas been called to an artigle on the Boundary Commission, published in your paper of the Sist ult., by Mr. John R. Bartlett, in answer to one signed “Vindex,”’ which appeared in your paper of the 2st ultimo. Mr. John. R. Bartlett has chosen to go out of his way to vent his ire upon me, in hopes, no doubt, of diverting public attention from his present peculiar position, by drawing me into a newspsper controversy with him upon subjects connected with the Boundary Commission—in relation to which he either stands arraigned for high mis- demeanor before a special committee of the Senate, and is now awaiting ite judgment, or, (which I have already disposed of under all the official responsibilities resting upon me as an officer cf the army,) by a refutation of statements, (which Mr Bartlett now endeavors to echo, ) when they were originally made by Mr. Alexander H. H. Stuart, while Secretary of the Interior under the late administration. My defence against the accusatieps of Mr. Stuart is contained in my Official report of August Inst, (see Senate Documents No. 121, thirty second Sn gress, first session,) which has now in print for more than six mon It became my duty to faut in that report the transactions on that commission, which, under nag, teseneconee, 1 was required to reform—em- bracing disorganization and entanglements which had paralyzed its operations before I relieved it, and also the effort that was made to surrender to Mexico a larye rtion of territory rightfully belonging tes under the treaty ef Guadalupe go. This effort I checked by suspending, as was my duty, the survey of the false line that was being traced when! arrived at El Paso. After my suspension of this false line, it was pro- tested as such by Mr. Gray, the seEeor, on the part of the United States, under the treaty, who refused to give bis assent to it—a condition necessa:y to its validity. A short time was necessarily oceupied by me in obtain- ine 8 requisite information in the immediate visinity of E! Paso, essential to the correct understanding of the true | apglen of this line, as it also was to the future and rightful progress of the ‘work of marking the boundary which was to divide our newly acquired territory from the Mexican State of Chihuahua. - Geveral Condé, the Mexican Commissioner, took um- brage at my ordering Lieutenant Whipple from the line which bad been agreed to by the General and Mr. Bartlett, in violation of the plain terms of the treaty. The Gene- ral had counted on a gain eoiee weet Mexico by this negotiated line, and he accordingly had a complaint made against me to my own government, under the plea that 1 bad stopped the work on the boundary line, taking care to suppress the fact that] had done #0 because it was being traced nearly forty miles too far to the north. Mr. Alexander H. H. Stuart, instead of being wary enough to enquire into the real merits of the case, as was | urgently recommended by Colonel Abert (see No. 182 of the appendix to my report)—a course that would have re- sulted in a full exposure of the ruse practiced by General Condé—at once ordered my recall from the eommission, and afterwards used all his efforts, and all the authorit of his official position, to have General Condé’s line rati- fied. This would have abstracted from the rightful pos- sessions of the United States, under the treaty of Guada- | lupe Hidalgo, nearly six thousand square miles of terri- | tory. There is no doubt, in my mind, that the course I promptly adopted in stopping this false line, was the true | | cause of my reall, although it was masked under the | charge of delay on my part in getting into the field. When the order of recall was issued, Mr. Stuart had before him my despatch of July’ Ist, 1851, (Appendix to my report No. 78), informing him that I bad arrived at Hl Paso by the rst military escort that had gone to that place since I was detailed for duty on the Boundary Commission, and that it was, in fact, the first opportunity that had occurred since that period, by which the instruments, which had to be pro- cured, could have been tran: therein safety. The charge of delay was refuted by me in my official report above alluded to. The justice of my position, as exposed in that report, received at least the tacit acquiescence of the late a istration, which, no doubt, discovered that it had acted too hastily, and with too little attention to ‘a matter of grave public importance, in sustaining Gen. Condé and Mr. Bartlett, and in having inflicted upon me a rebuke for what was but a just and faithful performance of my duty, under the very responsibilities which their own well: igented instructions imposed upon me. Having thus disposed of this matter, under all the responsibilities resting upon me, to the late executive, it cannot be expected that I will go over the same ground in a newspaper discussion with Mr. John R. Bartlett. I regret that his officiousness, and his indulgence in re- marks that border on personality in regard to myself, | compel me to remind him tbat, until he shall clear him- self from the grave accusations under which he now reste, and are awaiting the judgment of a high tribunal, he has no claim on the personal attention of any gentle- man. Whenever he shall clear himself from these, ‘‘no one will more cheerfully than myself accord to him what- ever” attention he may desire, that may be due from one gentleman to another. ‘As there seems to be an insinuation that I am the author of ‘‘Vindex,”’ I take occasion here to state that I not, and that I’knew nothing of the article, or of any intention on the part of anybody to write such an article, until Ieaw it in your paper. I have never, until now, | written anything on this subject for any pawepsper whatever. Allthat I have written has been addressed to the proper departments of the government, and under my official responsibilities. Before closing this paper, will it be trespassing too much on your columns, Mr. Editor, if I offer you a few remarks upon the true position of the line which forms the southern boundary of New Mexico ? ‘So much labored sophistry has been expended by some writers on this subjeet, that they have really confused their own minds to auc degree upon it, that the more we read their argumei the less we understand their reasoning. The fifth article of the treaty says, “‘ The southern and western limits of New Blexico, mentioned in the article, are those laid down on the map entitled, ‘Map of the United Mexican States, as organized and de- fined by various acts of the Congress of the said republic, and constructed according to the best authorities, Re- vired edition, published at New York, in 1847, by J. Dis- turnell,’ of ‘which map a copy is added to this treaty, bearing the signatures and seals of the undersigned pleni- potentiaries.”” Y According to the treaty, then, we are to understand the limits of these States ‘as organized and defined by the various acts of the Congress of the said republic,” in con- nection with their appearance on the said pie. On looking at this map, we find a dotted line running ‘rom east to west, which separates New Mexico from huahua. This line is the southern limit of New Mexico, mentioned in this article of the treaty, and it is also the northern boundary of Chihuahua, because they are eon- terminous. Now, let us see what definition of this line can be found in any of these “‘ various acts of the Con- | gress of the said republic,” alluded to in this article; for | any such net, if applicable, must settle the matter. | We find that, by the act of the said republic, of July | 6th, 1824, the territory of Chibnalua was formed into a State of the Confederacy, and that the territory of New Mexico still remained a territory, The act is as follows, viz-— Drcner.—(Trantiation.) The sovereign genera: constituent Congress of the United Mexican States bas held it well to dec ee ‘Article 1, The territory of Chibuabua shall bea State of | the federation. 8 Pie “Articles 2 and $ relate to the organization of the legislative | body, &e., de. Article 4. The tersitcry of New Mexico remains a terri tory of the federation. Tt shall he so. M July 6, 1824. i On the 27th of the same month the boundaries of this | new made State, upon the north and the south, were de- fined by an act of the Congress of the said republic to be as follows, viz:— Decrre.—(Extract—Translation.) KOUNDARY OF THE TERRITORY OF THE PROVIS OHINU ANA, ovcreign general constituent Congress of the United n Stutes bas held it well to decree ‘he territory of the provinee o hoahua shall include all that is compre- hended between right lines drawn from east to west, from the point or town called Paso del Norte on the one side, with the jurisdiction it has always possessed, and the ha: cienda of the Rio Florido on the ede of Durango, with its respective appurtenances. It shall be eo. Mexico, July 27, 1824. This northern bow of Chihuahua then became the southern boundary of New Mexico, and no authority but an act of the Congress of the said republic, made by and with the consent of the sovereign State of Chihuahua, could change it. The southern limit of New Mexico, mentioned in this [the 6th) article, extends down so far south as to touch the corporate limit on the north of the town called ae Norte. No arguments about latitude and lor gitude—conditions not alluded to atall in the treaty— can in eny way alter or disturb this fixed principle. i that is necestary, then, for finding the Initial point (as it has been called) on the Rio Grande, is to ascertain how far the corporate limit of the town of El Paso extends north of the Plaza; to measure off this distance and mark ite termination as a point on the line forming the south- ern boundary of New Mexico. Then run a line from thence east or west, as the case may be, to the RioGrande, and the point of intersection wil! be the ‘initial fea required. From thence run a line due weet 178 , to find the beginning point for running the western line of New Mexico, From thence run northward, along the said western Kmit of New Mexico, &e., &e., as the treaty dereribes. From information I have iately received from an Ame- rican gentleman, who acted as Prefect at El Paso under the military government of Col. Washington, I feel well satisfied that an examination of the municipal archives of the Mexican town of El Paso would shew that the cor- or pecs ja oe of Le bad het ereay one league or the yO wal 7 jcan miles. var i.
