DmParTMeEsT ov State, Wasnixoton, Jane 1, 1853 Im addition to the ‘Personal !nstructions to the Diplo. matic Agents of the United States in Foreign Countries,’ the following are bereafter to be observed:— Im performing the ceremonies observed upon the occa- sion of his reception, the representative cf the United States will conform, as far ss is consistent with a just rense o his deyotion to republican institutions the customs of the covntry wherein he is to reside, and with the rules prescribed for representatives of his rank; but the department would enccurage as practicable, without impairing his usefulness country, his appearance at court in the simple dress of en American citizen. Should there be cases where 1 cannot be done, oving to the character of the foreign goveroment, without detriment to the public in- terest, the nearest approach to it compatible with the due performance ef his duties, is earnestly recommend- ed. The simplicity of our usages end the tone of feel ing amovg our people is much more in accordance with the example of our first and most distinguished repre- sentative at a royal court, than the practice which has since prevailed. ‘It is to be regretted that there was ever sny departure in this respect from the example of Dr. Frankia. history hae recorded and commended this example, so congenial to the spirit of our political insti- tutions.’ The department is desirons of removing all ob- stacles to a return to the simple and unostentatious course which was deemed so proper, aud was so much approved in the earliest days of the republic It is our purpose to cultivate the most amicable relations with all countries; and this, we believe, can be effeprually done without requiring « ur diplomatic agents abrcad to depart in this respeot from what is suited to the general senti mente of our fellow citizens at home. All imstrustions | in regard to what is called diplomatic uniform, or court dress, being withdrawn, each of our representatives im ther countries will be left to regulate this matter ac cording to his own sense of propriety, and with a due re- spect to the views of his government a: herein expreaved. It is desirable that the mio harge d’affairs should establish the legation #4 central a position as | may be convenient of the metropolis, near the goyern ment to which he is sent. It will be his duty to see that it is kept o every day, except Sunday» and féte days, from D o'clock. in the foresoon until 30 cock path after- noon. The secretary attached to it, if there be one, must perform, in person, all the services which properly de volve upom him, except in caves of sickness or leave of absence. In such cases it is enjeineg upon the minister 10 appcint an American citizea to represent him, if itean be done. There is an obvious impropriety in devolving ‘upon a foreigner the duties which belong to the secretary. It is to be thus specific in these instructions, for it bas frequently occurred. of latter years that :ecre talon Cf logntion ove, aa 1 department is informed employed clerks, whose alle foreign, to copy despatches and do other official duties which pertained vo themselves. This practice, which, it is feared, is ugon the increase, is so obviously wrong, that the President is revolved to cause it to be di continued. The correspond. ence between the government and the legation; of the United States must be guardei with the utmost secresy even as relates to our own citizens. To submit it to the esamination of » foreigner wili be regarded as an indis- cretion im the offender, demanding immediate deprivation of office. The first duty of a subject is considered to be fidelity to his sovereign. Foreign clerks may justly be regarded as unsafe deporitaries of the secrets of our di- plomacy in the legation where they are employed. The Josaibifity that a revelation of our secret staie papers Inay occur in this manner, is sufficient to excite fears on the subject, and require the strict observance of the above instructions. Ministers of the United States and charges d'affairs are requested to authenticate by their own tures, with the seal of tne legation, the passports of American citizens, and not permit secretaries to perform this duty when they themselves are at their posta W.

It has been represented to this department, upon au- thority which is deemed undoubted, that Americin con- suls are in the habit of employing foteign clerks to assist in the discharge of consular duties. This is a practi longer to be countenanced. Where it is practi other than citizens of the United States after entrusted with the performance act. You wiil accordingly, within a rea: after the receipt of this circular, make the o by required, and receive into your service cons who owe allegiance to this governwnent, and also care- fully guard the records of the United States committed to your keeptog from the perusal of aliens Should cir- cumstances prevent a strict compliance with this regu- Jation, you will at once report the fact to this depart- ment, and explain the reasons thereof Inconveniences may result from this regulation to consuls where the English language is not that of the country in which the consul is situated, but if he be not acquainted with such language at the time of receiving his appointment, it is presumed that be will soon acquire 4 sufficient knowledge cf it for the management of his efiicial business. Wherever the consulate be, most of the business will be conducted in English, and with cits- zens of the United States. Moreover, he will find in most foreign countries young Americans desirous perhaps of such employment as he can afford them, and in all re- spects capable of performicg the daties required to his satisfaction. The President, in the performance of his duties, con- ceivex that be has no altervative but to raaifest his de- cided disapprobation of the anti American pgactices and tendencies, which are too palpable in our ular estab- lishment. There sre many of our citizena, (young men,) at home and abroad, who are anxious of acquiring knowledge of ove or another of the continental languages of Europe—a knowledge which, in after yesrs, would be valuable to the gove"nment and to the people. And it is recommended to our consuls to procure such a3 ausist- ants—contident that they will be found equally effectual and more trustworthy. ‘The commanders of our mercantile marine, the sailors by whem it is manned, as well as other citizens having business with our consulates, will find it more pleasant to transact it with subordinates who are their own countrymen, than with foreigners, dilleriog from them as much in manners as in language. Upon exsmination it is found thst no returns have | been received from several of our consulates, and that in some of those transmitted there are, apparently, irree gularities in the statements required to be msde ‘semi appvally to this department. If there be but a solitary fee paid at a consulate during’a twelvemonth, it must be reported in future, and if none be received. that fact | must be alse reported. In every instance where an offi- cial service is performed, the consul will be particular to include the amount, required therefor, in his reports to this departmeht. The omission to muke the reports re- quired by instructions, will be regarded as a sufficient cause for removal from’ office. There is reason to believe that abases are practised to a considerable extent in many places, and_psrticular, in the scuth of Europe, in the exaction of fees for verif. cations of passports, which might be dispensed with. The Cepartment is informed that consuls of the United | Stutes have counived at the cemands by the authorities of certain cities in the Italian States, and other places, where their consulates are established, for consular vises, in order to derive benetit from the fees consequent therefrem. If this is true, it is an abuse, and when known will be punished invariably with instantaneous deprivation of office. Such procedure would be alike dis- reputable to the consuls themeel es, and to the republic ich *olerates it. ike the custom observed at the British foreigh ard at the prefectures in France, passports are by this department to our citizens free of cost. is also the rule at our legations, at which no charge permitted to be made for vires. Happily for our people we know nothing of the system, in interior intercourse, of passports A foreigner may travel uvmolested from the easiern coofines of the western borders of Oregon, without bearing} any protection whatever from his government; but as other nations heve the undoubted right to regulate their interval affairs in such a menner as they may think proper in the commercial and other intercourse of four citizens with their inhabitants, unless their regulations shall conflict with treaty stipulations and international uenges,'we can do nothing more than afford to our es at the dis. of their own government, not suffering them to be ced toany wrong, so far as this department can prevent it. by our own or foreign functionaries By anact of Congress of April 14, 1792, consuls are au thorized to receive “for authenticating, under ihe consu- lar sesl, every protest, declaration, deposition, or other aci, which such captains, masters, mariners, seamen, passengers, merchants, or others, as are eitizens of the United States, may respectively choose to make, the sum of two dollars,” The words ‘tor others” clearly establish the right of a consul, when an application is made to him to that end to demand two dollars for @ passport —as also for a vieé to one—becauce the consular seal is necessarily employed to authenticate the act. 1 tion of the circular, therefore, which was issu department under date of June 25, 1820, instru suls that *‘no charge is to be wade for passports’ by revoked. Where there is a legation of the United States and a covsulate at the same place, consuls are not authorised hereafter to issue or vise pasaports. This duty devolves upon the legation . as the higher authority of the two. This Cepartment is informed that in some countries our consels think to impart dignity and jmportance to the place where the business of the consulate is transacted by calling it ‘La Chancellerie,” and the clerk in their employment “La Chancelier.”’ This ix done without any warrent in law or by instructions ; it is pot ia harmony with the neages in their own country. If led to it by = desire to imitate what they see abroad. the motive for it is as reprebensible as the practice. Con-uls are instructed to keep their offices open for the transaction of official business from nine o'clock in the morning until three o'clock in the afternoon, They will not be at liberty hereafter to absent themselves from their consular districts unle@™ upon leave obtained from this department, which will only be given in urgent essesand for comparatively short periods. In all that relates to scientific discoveries, to progress in the arts to agricultural developements, and to general statisvics in foreign countries, consuls are requested to communicate freely aud frequently with this department. Apart from their more formal duties, they may in this manver confer singular advantages upon the Union. It is in contemplation to propose to Congress at its next session, it the information received before that time be deemed sufficiently valuable to warrant the application, to publish annually for the public eye, a volume contain- ing extracts from consular despatehes. All the instructions heretofore issued from this depart- ment, in relation to consular uniform, are hereby re roked. Neither the propriety nor the utility of any regulation on this subject is perceived.” No law prescribes to civil officers at home—no us warrants any such mere external distinction, and it could not be assumed by functioraries at home without offence to the public taste. When consuls appoint vice coneuls .r consular agents, which, it is scarcely necessary to remark, should be citi- zens of the United States, they are required to communi- cate the fact to this department. The aforegoing instructions are applicable to vico-con- suls, commercial agents, and vice commercial agents, and the strict obrervance of them is enjoined by the President of the United States. W.

CONPIRMATION OF SIX DBAP MUTES, FIVE YOUNG LADIES, AND ONE COLORED YOUTH, BY BISHOP WAINWBIGHT. On Sunday afternoon a large assemblage of persons, the majority ladies, comgregated in the room used for the purposes of religious worship by deaf mutes, in the Uni- versity Building on Washington Parade ground, and which is known as St. Ann’s Church, to behold the in- teresting ceremony of confirmation of young persons when arrived ata proper age, conferred upon six deaf mutes, viz., five young ladies, and one youth (colored), by Bishop Wainwright, the Provisional Protestant Bishop of the diocess of New York. The ceremony commenced with the performance of the evening service of the Pro testant Episcopal Church, as laid down in the Buok of Common Prayer, and which resembles in every parti cular that of the established State Church of land and Ireland, by the Rev. Mr. Gallaudet. sevice was performed by signs, as usuel among the desf mutes, although the greater Cp of the congregation were not to be placed under this category, being rather drawn ‘by curiosity, and perhaps, in maay instances, by interest. to view :0 interesting a ceremony, than by motives o! worship, The service was, consequently, all in dumb show—the responses being made likewise by the clerk, im a similar manner, and the whole scene, although strange, was not entirely void of sublimity. It, however, wauted the essential a whole comgregatien of worshippers, using the same means of expre-stng their ideas, and of giving vent to their feelings of devotion, when the spee- tacle would doubtless have been far more affecting. But the number of there latter wae eo small, compared with that of the other part of the congregatioa, that their motions and signs, in response to those of the officiating minister, were vot observable. The reverend gentleman 80 far assisted the assembled cougregation, by mention: ing, in audible language the psalm that he performed in mute signe, ramely, the one hundred and forty-fifth, be- inning : WNT will magilfy thee, 0 God, my king, and I will praise , thy name for ever and ever.” lie likewise mentioned the chapter of the Testament that he was about to make known to bis own peculiar flock, namely, the eleventh chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, which had been the second jessoa of the morn- ing service of that day. In the other parts of the rervice he could'be followed from the printed book of prayer very easily, even by there who did not understand the mute signs. Having finishedshis religious performance, Mr. Gal- laudet explained in audible weaguagy 3 the congregation, that from the insufficient size of room ia which the; were now assembled, for the purposes of hii an dumb congregation and their friends, it had been found expedient to raise tunds enough to buiid a church for the Geaf mutes. Many of these were married, and had famt- les of children who could speak, but whom they did not wish to see separated from themselves for religious wor ship, and for whom it was proposed to establish a Sunday school in copjunction with thechurch. In order toeffect these intentions, $6,000 had been collected, butit was not enough to meet the mecessary demands for formiug a parish, as was deemed requisite. He, therefore, ealled upon the congregation assembled to assist with donations in this laudable enterprire. Bishop WaiswriGut, previously to performing the rite of confirmation, as practised by the Protestant Episcopal Church, addressed the congregation as follows :— T came bere with the view of confirming several of these mutes, but I did not expect to see present so taany persons who have the privilege of speech. Itis a very trite observa- tion that we generally cannot underatand the value ef com- mon blessings until deprived of them. This has been weil illustrated this afternoon, We have the common bless- ings of air, light avd water, and I doubt whether we are as thankful to God as we ought to be ; but if deprived of them we should hnow their value. Suppose, for exam- le, that we were deprived of pure air—we then should now the vastness of a blessing which is so important. Now, the blessings of hearing and speech, bave you thought enough of it? Never did I feel so much com- polled to give gralitude to God for this privilege as at present. Here the worship of God has been couducted without voice to utter his praise. How striking the con- trast from what we have been accustomed to. Here no oppertunity is given of lifting the voice to Gxd, and wor- shipping him with the outward cense. Are’ we sufil- ciently thankful to God that language has been given to us, although not to tho:e who have been deprived of it by the providence of God? Is there not cause on your part for thankfulness to God and ought we not tole grateful to Lim for the privilege of hearing and speech ? Ought we pot to enquire whether we have always used it rightly? Is there any oxe here who has not, at some time or other abused this privilege by angry language, or by profane language? Shall we then use the language of idleness axd folly. or ought we not ratter use this bien ous gift for the purposes for which it was designed, by speaking the language of wiedom, and elevating our voices in praise of the Great Giver of it. Here isa sermon preached to you, not by words, but by sigas, which must have caused solemn thoughts to arise in. the batt of avery one. I hope that this scene will teacl#us. # lesson to de- yote more grateful ardor to his service “and that we ought in every way to contribute towards Mix object that is intended for the service of Godi Mm tis city there are a hundred and thirty persons d@batved of bear- ing and speech, who have been educated a¥-the Deaf and Dumb Institution, who caa understand the language of signs, receive by its means the Word of God, and obtain ‘uetion by the language of signs. Is not this a rea son that they should have a place of worship, and make us determined when we go sway to further this good work? When this subject was first propounded to me I had some doubts whether it could be accomplished, nor did I think how far the church was justitied to enter into it. I became, however, convinced that it deserved our notice, and now. for the first time, Iam come to confirm six of these deaf mutes, that are offered to me as candidates for confirmation, and by the blersing of God I shall now perform this sacra- ment. The Bishop then read aloud the whole of the services appropriate to the oocasion, as ordered by the cahons of the Episcopal church, which was interpreted to the candidates for conirmstion, and to the other mutes assembled, by the Rev. Mr Gallaudet, in the language of signs. After the conclusion of the customary prayers ‘the Bishop rose from his kneeling posture, and, advancing towards ‘tbe youthful candidates, who were stationed in front of the polit, pronounced the usual form of prayer, placiog his hands upon the head of the colored ywuth, who was first in the line, and repeating the same word; and cere- mony with all the candidates severally, who conducted thenivelves with the utmost decorum, and apparently well understanding the solemnity of the occasiov. After this, the Bishop slowly addressed his youthful proféges, whom be bad just confirmed, in the following words, which were interpreted to them sentence by sentence, by the Rev. Mr. Gallaudet, their mipister. I regret that I am not able to speak your own lan- guage: but Iam thankful to God that your hearts have been brought to see the importance of religicn; and not withstanding thet God in his providence? has shut out knowledge through the ear and voice, yet that religious instruction bas come into your hearts by means of an- cther sense. You must not suppose that because has deprived you of certain gifts that others po that you are less favored or less precious in his § You must remember that this is state of probation: and that, therefore, God metas ont his grace and gifts in various ways to all men That this is a fallen state io which we arc—that the world is not God created it, and that man is not as he was first formed by his Creator; but that sin entered into the world, and death by its aid. ‘That oli the evils we suffer, and eepecially those to which you are exposed, are @ proof that this is a fallen state, and not that God is especialy angry with you. But, although thir is @ state of sin oa has opened a way by which we may escape from its consequences: for although sinners, we are pardoned through Jesus Christ Although alienated from God, we are brought anew to him through the ble od of the cross; and the next ob ect with us should be to look into cur hearts ard see if we have that love for the Seviour which i: essential for our salvation. T! far from eonsidering qourselves under God’s displeasure, by depriving yon of hearing and speech, you should now con- sider yourselves as bis children, after the service of this day. if you have come prepared fer it. God has given to you in this service the promise of everlasting life, which you should carry with you through all the trials of your pilgrimege. In this state then although tianers, You are now pardoned sinners, if you have come to this service prepared through Je:us Christ. Not that you are to suppose that you cannot become again tranagressors, for every day we are drawn to sin, bat you are no this state that if you have come truly prepared you will be pardoned throvgh Jesus Christ. ‘It is a great specie! privilege which you have now enjoyed but you must rs member ‘hat God will bring us to account for the usa of our privileges, and that for all there blessiag* he will de mand as @ right that we profit by the instruction that we receive, and give a fair 1eturn for the benefits enjoyed. ‘That you are to use this privilege by maintaining greater watehfulness over yourselves—aore constant in prayer— more desirous of the service of God in all respects, You are to remember that this is a megye of grace, leading to ‘a higher means of graoe, that by the gospel of Jesus Ch ist the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper is the Chrisiian’s peace ard ie the Christians food. That as such it is to be attend- ed constantly and faithfully, and that the discipline of the church’ cenfirmation is prepsratory for coming to the supper of the Lord. Believing that you are already jreeiced fer your sigs and true believers in Jesus Christ. expect you to come forward tothat blessed sacrament Ifyou feel, as many do, a seuse of unworthinere, you most remember thai all are unworthy. aod that none are wholly worthy of so great a privilege. The Bishop ad dressed the candidates for core time in the same strain, which was ioterpreted clearly to their understand- ing by the Rey. Mr. Gallaudet, for they appeared evident. ly much affected, evineiog a higher degree of knowledge than is generaily attributed, but we consider without fourdation, to deaf mutes. The congregation were evi dently likewise much a flected; and those who came mere- ly to satisfy their curiosity, departed much affected with solemnity of the scene.

Here, where his many amiable and excellent qualities were known and appreciated, he will be mourned with sincere . He had re- sided among us many years, and the relations which had sprung up between him and our citizens were of ‘Postand siiechieat. ‘There was a finge of personal and nt. ere was a tinge Preetion in the esteem with which they regarded His was a truly loyal nature, and his generous disposition and periect aicmplinite of character were calculated to draw around him the warmest friends. ‘There was no more just or true-hearted man. Whe- ther in the social circle or ou the field of battle, he bad ever the entire confidence of those around him. As a soldier, it may be said of him, as of Bayard, that he was without fear and without reproach. The sorrow that his death causes among his ac- quaintances will be partaken by the American peo- le, from our eastern frontier to the shores of the ‘acific; for his distinguished career in arms had made him known to them all. We will undertake a has pal events in his military life, leaving the task of an adequate memoir to a more competent hand. We cannot now enumerate the testimonials of gratitude and admiration which the gallant old soldier had re- ceived from Congress, from State Legislatures, and other pois bodies; but they were many in number, and all of them bestowed under circumstances evinc- ing the highest appreciation of his great worth and eminent services. General Riley was born in Maryland, in 1787. He entered the army as Ensign of Rifles in 1813, and wag promoted to a Third Licutenancy the same year. He was made a Second Lieutenant in 1314, and at the reduction of the army, which took place at the close of the war with Great Britain, he was retained as Lieutenant in the Rifle Regiment. During the war he was distinguished as a gallant and efficient soldier, and gained the approbation of his com- manding officers. The St. Lawrence frontier, ex- tending as far as Plattsburg, was the scene of his carly military exploits, and the parties of British and Indians, from over the lines from La Cole Mills to Lake Champlain, soon came to dread the murderous rifles of the parties commanded by Lieut. Riley. In 1817, he was promoted to First Lieutenant, and toa Captaincy in 1818. The Rifle Regiment had been stationed on the western and northwestern frontier since the war of 1812, and in_performing the duties incident to his profession, Captain Riley was still the efficient and indefatigable officer. In 1822, he was arranged to the 5th Regiment of Infantry, and. in the same year transferred to the 6th Regiment of the same arm. In 1823, Captain Riley’s company formed part of an expedition up the Missouri River, as far as the Yellow Stone. The expedition was commanded by Colonel Leavenworth. The gallant Riley again distinguished himself in actions with the Indians, particulasly with the Arickarees. In 1828, he received the brevet of Major, tor ten years’ service in the grade of Captain. Shortly after this time, Major Riley was sent with a battalion of troops on the Santa Fe trail, at that time a terra incognita. He afforded, during the exreaitt mn, protection to the traders, and, in several conflicts with large arties of Indians, won new laurels, and taught, for the first time on the prairies of the west, a les- son to the savage tribes, which they have never forgotten. In 1832, his regiment participated in the Black Hawk war, the fearful “Cholera Cam- paign;” and Major Riley was, as usual, active in the performance of his duties. In 1837 he was promoted to Major of the 4th Infantry, and was stationed at Fort Gibson, on the Arkansas river. His services, for many years, had been on the re- mote frontiers of the west and northwest. About this time he was ordered to Florida, in the war against the Seminole Indians. In 1839, he was pro- moted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel of the Se- cond regiment of infantry, and took command of his regiment, at that time operating in Florida. He and his regiment were very active in the prosecution of the war, and were several times engaged with parties of theenemy. In 1844, he received the bre- vet of Colonel, to rank from “June, 1840, the day on which was fought the batile of Chokochatta, Flo- rida, in which he particularly distinguished himself by bravery and good conduct, and for long, merito- rious, and gallant services.’ In 1842, at the close of the Florida war, he, with his regiment, was or- dered to this frontier; and for more than three years his head quarters were in this city. Here his urbanity and kindness in private life, and hissoldierly bearin, in the discharge of his duties, made him ‘a genera! favorite. He was ordered to Detroit in 1545, or early in 1846, and in the summer of 1846 his regiment was ordered to Mexico, to join the vie- torious army of General Taylor. Being delayed some time to fill up his regiment with recruits, he did not join the army ia Mexico until after the battle of Monterey. In January, 1847, he accompa- nied the army in its march from Monterey to Tam- pico, at which point he joined General Scott, and was at the landing of Vera Cruz, where he com- manded the second brigade of Twiggs’ Division— Gen. P. F. Smith commanding the first brigade. After the fall of Vera Cruz, the division to which Riley belonged, was pushed on towards Mexico, and found the enemy in force at Cerro Gordo, on the sth April, 1847. In this battle he received the bre- vet of Brigadier General for ‘‘ gallant and merito- rious condu As the army approached the city of Mexico, Twiggs’ division had the enemy's strongly entrenched camp to carry at Contreras. To Riley's brigade, sustained by reserves, was confided, under the direction of General Smith, the assaulting of the work. The way they performed it, is matter of his- tory. Riley received the brevet of Major General for gallant conduct in this battle, August 20th, 1847. When the American troops retired from Mexico, Gen. Riley's regiment was ordered to Pascagoula, Louisiana, and from thence to Jefferson Barracks, Mo. In the fall of 1848, he was ordered to Califor- nia, with his regiment, and had most arduous duties there to pertorm, commanding that military depart- ment, and ex officio provisional governor. In his new vocations, whose duties and responsibilities he encountered with that cheerfulness and zeal which had ever characterized him, he gave entire satisiac- tion, and won the esteem and confidence of all with whom he was associated. While in California he was prostrated by disease, the seeds of which were, perhaps, brought from the campaigns of Mexico, which were, never entirely eradicated, and which, perhaps, may have brought on the malady that has terminated his life. In 1550, he was promoted to be colonel of the 1st infantry, and ordered from Cali- fornia to take command of his regiment, at that time serving on the RioGrande. He reached New York,on his return from California, the wreck of what he had been, when he entered Mexico. Ineapable by debility and the remains of disease, of active duties and com- mand he selected Buffalo asthe place where he and his family had enjoyed health and happiness, and where he hoped again to Cup A) comforts in the society of his many friends. He purchased a pretty place, which he designated the “Soldier's Retreat,” and daily his erect figure—notwithstanding debility—and his flim step, could be seen as he walked into the city; his health and strength apparently improved. In the winter of 1861-2, he was ae Wvaalitavton; urg- ing the settlement of his California accounts. there, a sore broke out on his right cheek, which continued to spread, notwithstanding the best medi- cal treatment, until the whole side of his face was destroyed by the cancer, which now has had a fatal termination. That tall, straight, soldierly form, which so often braved with impunity the balls of the foe, sunk under the attack of that enemy before whom all must sooner or later bow. We shall no more see him in our midst. His warfare is ended. Rest, soldier, rest! He bowed with submission and resignation to the decree of his Heavenly Father, trusting to the atone- ment of Christ for his salvation. Obituary. Wrusam Trornton Dosiriay. son of General A. W.
