THE TEHUANTEPEC RIGHT OF WAY. dante Anna's Griginal Groat to Coa modore Porter. —Commodore Porter's Grant, Garay’s Grant and the Sloo Grant, There is likely to be considerable discussion be" tween this and+the next session of Congreas, and at the next session, respecting the different grants from the Government of Mexico to various parties, of lands, &c., on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. It is understood that the parties interested in the lat, grant to Col. Sloo and his associates are seeking the ratification by President Pierce of the recent treaty made by Judge Conkling confirming the grant. If the executive ratification is given, the treaty has still to be Patified by the Senate. The ratification of this last treaty of course annuls and abrogates all the past action of the executive and Senate in reference to the Garay grant, and may be regarded as an aban- donment and extinguishment of it, and therefore those interested (Mesers. Haynes, Senator Benjamin, and their co-partners) will resist such measure. It is said that the convention recently concluded with Mexico by Judge Coukling, was concluded without instructions authorising the stipulations it contains, and that the faith of the United States is plighted by ita past action to sustain the Garay grant, and on the other hand it is asserted that the Sloo contract is the most advantageous to this country. Letters from Mexico, for and against both grants, are pro- duced in this city and in Washington replete with plausible statements and cogent arguments pro and con. in the meantime there seems to be an Indispo- sition to publish to the world the copies had by some of the parties of the official documents. This looks suspicions. The public wants light, information, and facta. It is not satisfied with rigmarole arguments and assertions and representations, by interested par- ties, or their feed counsel, in such matters; but they demand the documents. The suppression of these pai creates distrust that they will not bear the test of scrutiny. We have a long time since heard that the late Commodore David Porter had with others obtained in 1826, aud afterwards, grants for lands at the Isthmus that were superior to any con- made since. Commodore Porter, it will be remembered, was commander-in-chief of the navy of Mexico trom 1526 to 1529, during which time he was more than once engaged with Spanish ships-of-war in the Gulf of Mexico and Straits of Florida. His brother, Capt. John Porter, was killed on board the. brig Guerrero in an engagement with the Spanish squadron under Admiral Laborde. We have ob- tained a copy of one of the grants given by the Mexican Government to Commodore David Porter, of which a copy, faithfully translated, is published below, with some other prvofs upon the subject. His heirs are entitled, we presume, to this valuable pro- perty, s0 richly earned by the gallant Commodore, and it is not to be doubted that General Santa Anna will recognize and carry out his own acts in 1826 and 1828. There are, we are informed, other important official documents of a date subsequent to the follow- ing, extending the concession. SANTA ANNA'S LETTER. (TRANSLATION ] Vera Coz, Mareh 16, 1828.

Opening Services of the Religious and Charitable Societies. Amesican Home Miselonary Society. ‘The anniversary sermon of the above society was deli- vered last evening by the Rev. L. P. Hickok, before the seciety, at the Church of the Puritans, Union square. ‘The attendance was not very numerous, owing no doubt to the inclement state of the weather. ‘The reverend gentleman took his text from the 10th chapter of St. Mark, the 23d to the 27th verses. “ And Jesus looked around about, and saith unto his disciples, how hardly shall those that have riches enter into the kingdom of God. “And his disciples were astonished at his words, but Jesus apawereth again and saith unto them, children how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God. “It is emsier for camel to go through the eye of an needie than a rich man to enter the kingdom of Heaven. stouiched out of measure, saying among themselves who can be saved? es “And Jesus looked upon and saith, with men it is impos- ane but not with God; for with God af things are possi- sible. Riches excluded men from heaven, The inclination to trust inthem was so stiong that it would effectually exclude them from the Kingdom of God. Yet the salva- tion of the rich man was not entirely hopeless. The striking truth implied in the text was not only applicable to men, but to counties and States. The very prospérity ud siches of his nation wil! be the means of its dissolu- tion The meaning implied in the text was that it would te impossible except through the Gospel for nations or 1cn men to be saved. The prosverity of a country was retail that could be wished for, as vice increaved ac cordingly. Every man when rich becomes engrossed in his own business, and the word of the Lord seldom ea- tersbis heart. He then went on to show that all great cit es and countries when their prosperity had attained a creat height, bad always invariably fallen and become thy prey of barbarians. Ezypt in a'l ite glory fell lower thun aby otker nation, because of its great prosperity. Babylon once ruled the world. She also nas fallen, and wild beasts now roam over the plains where her ‘finest and grandest palaces once stooa. [he ersian empira, because of its prosperity, fell a prey to the greedy Greeks, Rome, also, once mistress of the world, has fallen to de- cay. The richest city in the world was plundered by the barbarians of the northern part of Europe, Thus all history shows that great prosperity is incompatible with pational security and virtue. He then went oa to show the dangers that threateoed thin country. He called especial attention to the first danger—‘‘The great in- crease of crime.’ It may be said that crimo should ac- company prosperity and riches. The mos: liable to be- come criminals in this country are those poor foreigners who are arriving at our shores in Lortes every aay. There was vot a country in the. world that could bear such an influx of foreign po ulation The second danger, he would state, was the influx of foreigners. The current to this country will flov, and they could not | help it. Perhaps the commit gliog of all these races that flock t¢ these shores mey teno to «t. eogthen the frame of the American men, but it would not serve in the lexst to keep the danger away. The religioux ideas they bring here are at yariance with the principles of a republic. Ronvi:m is directly opposite the doctrines ofa republie. This variety of rece and religicn is now operating exten- sively in this country. No statesman can blead such ditcordant bodies together, or keep this country from being totally annihilated—z othing but the light of the gos- pel could, in his opinion, rave it from certain destruction ¢ third was the growth of slavery. The profit of sla very was the reason why it was permicted. Every yesr the sympathies of the people ure increased for the poor slayes ot the South. Political ambition used it as « tool for various purposes, and therefore the strife became deeper every day. In the prosperity of the nation slavery will increate, and the evils will of cour-e be increayed also. He who knows how to read human nature can seo that the denuncistions of the North and the defiance of the South is no good omen. The gospel of God alons can avert the great evil that now overhaogs this country. The gorpel preached will save this country. The missionary must be sent to preach the word of God to the poor benight- ed flaves. They will not teach them to be too independent, but, on the contrary, they should be taught to be meek and lowly, but free. Another dacger that threatens uais ‘the progress of annexation.’’ The pureaase of coun- tries for the purpore of annexation was not as desirable as it was supposed to be, as the taxes ant expenses on those countries were enormous. Their blood was shed La apnexing New Mexico, Caliternin and Texas.— 0 does not see that slavery was the great object in view when the annexation of Cuba or Hayti was talked off The fif r was the ‘seltivh- ns:s of political parties.” Each party manufactures @ platform for its own object, their maxim being “to the victor- belong the spoils’? They go deliberately to work, and calculate the time lost and money spent at the election, and then see how much spoils will fall to their lot. This selfishness will, of coursee kelp to in- crease the t danger that threateas this country, which can only be obviated by a diffusion of the word of God among the people, both foreign and native. The sixth and last danger was the * Home Missionary Secta- rignism.”” Fach denomination, instead of joiuiag hand in hand in the great work, has its eye towards its e«n devomination. In the fulne-# of the success, sectarian interest has become of iate very dang-rous. Some of the very best and most learned men in this country are at variance with each other. The love of God among the ministers of God may arre-t this in time, but if it should not, the straggle will be a violent one There never was 8 country to which the text was 80 applicable as ours.

Joms Kennevy, D.D., of Brooklyn, delivered | the usval annual sermon in the above church yesterday evening. The severity of the weather prevented a | thronged atiendance of the members of the congregation, but still a respectable number were present. The Rev. J. | C, Stes, pastor, made a statement of the exertions of the society during the past year, its present position in foreign countries, and the number of missionaries em ployed, and also of its financial affairs. The society was called upon to deplore three deaths in the ministry during the year, and so many lights were thus extinguisbed. Mistions were sustained in Ireland, Sweden, Belgium, Frarce, and Italy. In the east, China wae supptied Their laborers were also active in Brazil, the Valley of the Ria Grande, the Canadas, and the large cities of the United States, True Christisnity had been thus propagated with great ardor and much success.
