P AcaPutco, Aug. 7, 1853. ‘Americans and Mexicans—The Treatment of our Cowntrymen—Treaties and their Violation— Cases in Point—Citizens Demand for Protec- tion—-The Mexican Alcades and Mexican Courts —What Ought to be Done, §c., Fe, He, Knowing your paper to be one through which the Wrongs ct Americans abroad may be made known, And better credited from having appeared in it, I have taken the liberty of stating a few of the many Outrages Americans are subjected to through the “hatred and spleen of Mexicans to our countrymen— shown through their official acts in direct opposition and in utter disregard to the articles of the treaty of ‘amity, commerce, and navigation, between the United States and Mexico—and if what I write needs verification, I am atliberty torefer to our con- gl bere, who is an old resident of this port. ' Itt will be seen by reference to article nine of the treaty of 1831, * that citizens of both countries fespectively shall be exempt from compulsory ser- * vice in either the army or navy, nor shal] they be tubjected to any charges, or contributions, or taxes Other than such as are paid by the citizens of the State in which they reside. This arti- cle is as plain as words can make it—'tis impossi- ble to misconstrue it—still, it is violated every day with imppnity. Weare forced, in order to remain in the country, to obtain from the city of Mexico a carta de segundad, or letter of security, which is a direct tax in opposition to the treaty, levied upon all Americans. Mexican citizens beirg subject to no h tax, we are nominally allowed thirty are to obtaia it from the capital. “And if at the end of that fie it ‘s not forthcoming, we are subject to a fine of $20, cr imprisoument of ten days, and expulsion fom the country. But this, although aa outrage @foxs cnough to deserve tbe notice of our govern- Ment, dwindles iuto nothingness when compared the manner this law is carried into execution. » An abguacu (constable) is sent without any order tr apparent authority, from the alcalde to summon sock a3 have not been before him, to show their Jet- ters of security. oar, a3 frequently happens, the —— summoned may have been but a few days in country, and not understanding a word of Spanish, the corstdble’s order is not understood, for which @rime the poor fellow is marched off between a file of soldiers with fixed bayonets, totally unconscious of what he is guilty, and in many cases forced to pay the fine; or, if too poor, has been thrown into a tihng castle, in spite of the assertion of the United States Consul that the man has'not been in the country the required thirty dsys. In some cases they have boen eesheraes ax a personal favor to the Consul, on ent of part of the fine. Then the courts of fe ice—or injustice—are open to only those who we these letters of security, in direct opposition to ® clause eigen XIV of the ne ae % pret 1—"Bot ies engage to give their special Tato to eer ons and Property of citizens of €ach other, of all occupations, who may be in their territory, subject to the jurisdiction of the one or the other, transient or dwelling therein, leaving open _ and free to them all tril of justice, for their ju- dicial recourse, on the same terms whicn is usual and customary with the nation or citizens of the country in which they may reside.” Here,as before, no nat ves or citizens are obliged to possess any such A short time since an American was ordered be- fore the Alcade, to show hia letter of security, which had been sent for by the Consul, but had been de- layed or miscarried. The Consul was called upon to certify under his seal that such was the case, which was done, and, at the time, deemed sufficient, the man being discharged, after sufficient time was allowed for its receipt. The next day the Alcade thinking he had been too lenient, caused his arrest, and the interference of the Consul proving vain, he bea into a dungeon till the fine of $20 was coming. Allow meto quote one other case, aud 1 doubt ifits equal can be found in the known world, civilized or uncivilized. A gentleman con- nected with the Pacific Mail Company at this port, left eome since for Francisco, having . settled, as he supposed, 4 private affair, to the per- +fect satisfaction of all concerned. A day or two since the seat of the company here was called upon fo pay the demand supposed to have been settled, ich he refused to do, it having no connection whatever with the compapy, and in less than one hour #fter, to the surprixe and indignation of every- “body, orders were issued for the embargo of the company’s coal, sufficient to cover the amount of the demands, as the embargo stated, but, in tact, ten times the amount of the claim. These coals, while I write, are being sold at public auction, in ‘front of the court house, in the face of numberless protests. Even nature herse!f rises up in opposition to such an outrage, for a powerfui shock of an earthquake occurred at the moment of the commencement of the le. Would these outrages occur if we had occasionally & vessel of war in the port? No; for a more treach- erous or cowardly race never existed. It is on this coast that the largest. squadron is wanted, to protect our-rights by a showof forces, where nosense of honor can be found, our flag trampled under foot, our Con- guls insulted, and their plighted word disregurded— or more than disregarded—actually opposed. I could qnote case on case where Americans have been outraged, and with periect impunity; tepreventations have been made to our mi- nister and government and remained unnoticed. In former times our countrymen have actually been shot down in the stroets or imprisoaed, on slight pre- tences, and allowed to remain month after month Without trial, and in one case, a man was fourteen months buried in this filthy castle without a show of These outrages should be taken notice of by our : vernment. If no cognizance is taken of one case, it ia made a precedent for others, and God knows where they will stop. It is only when these ladrones have sunk one of the mail boats in the harbor, or in gome other way committed an outrage sufficiently peng to teuch the interests of our government, notice will be taken of their acts. ‘Tis a notorious fact that Americans are the worst protected nation abroad. As I suid before, I can vouch for the facts above rene and, if need be, a hundred more, fully equal. [t would be a satisfaction that those at home should know how their countrymen are treated, even though we can expect nothing of protection from our own Government. AMERICANS.

Atter the gen- tlemen retired from the stage, Miss Hayes sang planed thro’ the Rye,” which was loudly ap- jauded. Her performance and singing of “Lucia” was in- imitable. At the conclusion of “Don Pasquale’ she was cailed ont for ‘Sweet Home,” which she sang sweetly, and the curtain dr ;. but the audience would not “give it up so.” Hayes was louldly called for, and, upon her return to the stage, made a very pretty , thanking her friends in the most touching and appropriate manner. The rush to hear her was immense, and, at the conclusion, the applause testified better than my pen can describe, how dearly she was cared for by the Valparasians. On her entering her carriage to return, she was greeted with three times three. The horses were taken cut, and, by torchlight, from the ranks of the fire companies, she was drawn in triumph to the hotel, where she appeared upon the balcony, and bade a LS night to her thousands of friends who fil'ed the streets and surrounding houses. On her ente her room, sbe found a few friends, who sat down toasmall collation, in the tidst of which she was interrapted by receiving a note from other friends, asking permission to tender her a serenade, in compliment to her many virtues and talents. Before she could finish reading the note, the band struck up the national air of Chile. Miss Hayes and her friends adjourned to the balcony, where a pretty sight awaited her—the Regimental Baud, in foll uniform, and in front of which stood the Commandante and Aids,in full costume, and in the” rear might be seen five gentlemen, who were sup- pored to be the originators of this delightful euter- tainment. But I fear I am trespassing too much on your time. Allow me to close with one remark. To uve the words of a friend at my elbow, Miss Hayes has tle happy faculty of communicating to her audience all the ardor and enthusiasm which she feels herself, thereby giving the appearance that actress and au- dience ere one. , By regular mail I will give you some commercial intelligence, which is uow preparing. Sourm Paciric. The South Pacific. {From the Panama Herald, August 6 ] Yesterday morning the P. 8. N. Co.’s steamer Bo- livia, wiite Alex. Strachan, arrived in our port about 10 o’clock. At the date of the Bolivia's sailing from Cajlao, (the 25th,) the Quito, the mail steamer due from Valparaiso, had not arrived ; and by advices received from Callao on the 23d, by the sailing ves- sel Adam Lodge, from Valparaiso, it appears that the Quito had not arrived there on the ith, being then two days overdue. She was last seen by the Peruvian steamer Rimac, at Cobija. It is expected that she must haye met with some accident to her Eecuinery The only news we have from Chile is contained in the Lima Comercio of the 26th, from which we learn that the British barque Asacia, from Hartle- pool, arrived at Valparaiso, having on board the crew of the French bark Robert Surcoff, bound to California, and lost off Cape Horn. - Brom ae we tate a Belzu rons serio re irre, Secre' for Foreign A‘ in place of Sr. Bustillo, shat era te ate The Lima papers contain no news of any import- ance relative to the Bolivian question, and do not note the progress of the war, or give any informa: tion of interest. A copy of a declaration of certain inhabitants of Bolivia, giving their reasons for opposing Belzu, and calling upon other nations to witness the justice of their course, is published but it bears no signatures. Senor Loustannau, late Peruvian Consul in this city, has been nominated by his government Consul General in Spain. The Estandarte Peruano, in noticing the errors in some figures latel published Telative to the qua- lity and duration of the guano deposits, sa; that according to the report made by Senor Villa, in 1842, the deposits on three islands was then calcu- lated to be 46,632,280 tons, or 28,925,571 tons on the large islaud, and 17,703,709 on the two small ones. Assuming the consumption to be 300,000 tonsa year, valued at $20 dollars a ton, it would produce a reve- nue of six millions of dollars a year, or about $17,090 a day, and require about one hundred and sixty years for its total consumption. We find no further items of news in our Lima files, and our private letters inform us that there is nothin; of importance stirring there, cither in pulltical 0} commercial matters. ‘The total number of foreign immigrants arrived in Pera, from June 26, 1850, to July 5, 1853, have been 3,052; of these 2,513 were from China, 1,003 from Germany, and 326 from Ireland. The P.S. Co's steamer Bolivia sailed from Panama for Valparaiso on the 7th inst with the ustial semi-monthly mail and passengers. Among the latter was Governor Wood, Consul at Valpa- raigo, and General Merwin, Vice Consul. Interesting frema Evuador, We copy the following from the Star of Sunday, Angust 7:— President Urbina was about to leave Ecuador for Pera, ostensibly to recover his health, but in reality, it is said, on account of the difficulties ia his govern- ment, Gaptain-Ceneral Robles, it is reported, was en deavoring to raise a revolution in the conntry, in order to throw Urbina out of the Presidency, and get himself elected. It was expected that a gene- ral outbrzak would take place before long. General Illingworth died in Guayquil in the latter end of July. He was highly esteemed in New Gre- nada, and his death is much regretted. The South American Repubiles—Their Condt- thon, Social, Moral, and Miliary. (Pict the Paoama Herald, August 11’) And now we come to that division of the globe to which we wish more particularly to refer—namely, the South American, or, more correctly speaking, the Spanish American republics. First oa the list, in geographical order, comes Mexico--the first also from her political position, her splendid soil, her vast resources, and all the rich ifts that nature hes lavished upon her with such Boundless prodigality. Yet Mexico is but a political volcano, over which the still warm lava crust bas not yet harcened, and in which, at any moment, the flames may burst forth again with redoubled vio- lence. A republic but in name; her rulers govern through the fear and not the affections of the people, and from the days of Iturbide to the present rale of Sante Anna, bave sought more their own personal oggrandizement than the public good. Revulution bas succeeded revolution, aud constitution followed constitution in as rapid succession as Banquo’s ghost glided before the eyes of Macbeth, and each political convulsioa scems but to sink the nation into misery and wretchedness the more deep, and produce dis- union and confusion more and more confounded. Then, in order follow, the small States, known os the Central American Kepublics—Guatemala, Honderas, San Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. One moment forming trea! nd ponds of union, swearing cternal amity and brotherhood over treaties and new constitutions, and the next they ore found engaged in bloody and devastating revolu- tions, carried on with all the horrors of a civil war, and «1 the bitterness ofa family feud. Rulers whose naiwes were never known beyond the limits of their territory, and many of which are almost forgotten now even there, have for a moment shut across their troubled horizon Jike a meteor in the darkness of night, and have as suddenly disappeared; the only end they answered being make “ the darkness visible.” Even now Guatemala and Honduras are in arms agrinst each other, and the other republics enjoy peace only because they e too reduced by previous efforts to continue the struggle, and the apoils are scarcely worth fight- ing for. The present quiesence is, however, but temporary; itis impossible that it can be otherwise, as long as the system of government and the principe of the rulers remains as it is at present. ‘his @ov- erpment i) il the government of Oid Spain, alter- ed culy in Lame, but its nature continues as before, shainelesa pectlation, malversation, oppression, ve- nality and corruption, formerly by Spanish ofiicials, now by those who hold the reins of office. They sought liLerty, they fought for it, nobly and devoted- ly, and they achieved it; but whon it was reluctent- dy yieite d to them, they did not know its value, they did not understand its tise. In such works as these of Vulney, Raynal, Voltaire, aud Paine, they looked under the most uppropitious circumstances for the gospel of social contract and the rights of man. Ca: it, there‘ore, be surprising that they have only gone the lengibs we see? New Gransda comes next inorder. After a long struggle she too achieved her liberty, and unGerwent, in her subsequent incependent state, almost as many changes as her sister republics. From a federal State of the Colombian Union, she at last took ner stand as on independent nation, and underwent, dur- ing her younger years, alraost the same course of ra- volutions and system of political intrigues. O¢ Inte years she has oe more internal peace, and ¢ cumstances, arising out of Ler peculiar position, and the contact cho hax been brought into with Kuropean nations and the Urived States, have pssduced in her 4 most faverable reaction. In the reforured constita- tion which she bas just adopte:!, she has again made a veuntiry edceful charge in ber priudiples of peli Rovermmet5, bub whether she ja yot prepwed for so thorongt yoctelic chanfe, 48 aa im- pertant probler of romans to bo solved. To Jadge of Now Grauada by the province of Panama, restrained demooratic principles ignorant multitade, and placed in wrong hands is difficult to recover again. A few a will, however, settle question, whether this seeming! re atep will prove 80 in reality for New Granada. ‘The state of the ether Colombian blies is not 80 favorable. Venezuela is now plunged in civil war; and Ecuador, scarcely recovered from the designs of Flores, is still exposed to another attempt from the same quarter. She, of all the South Amerisan republics, has ma je the least progress towards civil- ization and stability. Her foreign debt is unliqui- dated, her resources undeveloped, and her export ang. import sade Tr limited. eru is perhaps the most apparently prosperous of all the South American mepnbtions Vor some time after Bolivar, San Maitin, and Sucre gave her independence, she also was the theatre of civil war, revolution, acd discord, from which the vast revenue the derives from her guano deposits now saves her, as it yields sufficient to satisty the cupidity of al | gad the old rele of intrigue still rs with er; and, after aiding Flores against her neighbor- ing State of Ecuador, and trying to pick a quarrel with New Granada, she has succeeded in coming to an open rupture with her southern neighbor Bolivia, in actually invading the country, and in sowing the seeds of civil discord in that’ unfortunate country. We do not pretend to judge as to whether she justified in her course, but we think that if she hasa sufficient cause for war, she should fight it out her- self, and not resort to the policy of dividing tho house against itself, and involving the country in the horrors of a civil war. Bolivia has been always unfortunate; unsettled in her government and torn by faction and party spirit, possessing a splendid soil and climate, and vast re- sources, some of them almost peculiar to herself, for which she could always find a ready market, she has neglected a'l these, and become but the unfortunate victim of designing, ambitious and selfish rulers, she remains and is likely to remain for some time in the upheppy position she now couples unless some new power arises, or some fresh element be introduced Into her policy that may raise her to her proper place in the scale of nations. ° Chile also suffered, but has lately advanced mere rapidly and on sounder basis than avy of her sister republics; education is encouraged, industry fostered, and a liberal policy pursued by herrulers, that ever! day strengthens and secures her more and more; an she shows us what can be done, under a just and unligbtened form of gcvernment. Crossing the Andes we find the Argentine repub- lies still the seat of civil discord and the country of the dictator Francea and Rosas still plunged in ail the horrors of a civil war. In this rapid review of the Spanish American con- tinent, there is mnch matter for serious reflection. Comparing the distracted, unsettled, and almost retrograde position of these republics since the period of their emancipation, with the vast progress made by the United States during the same period, or even during an equal number of years after her inde- pendence, considering the vast advantage the former possessed in having @ model on which to form their constitutions, if they were so inclined, and that the; were called upon to try no new experiment in self- government, or frame a system of republicanism ag novel a8 it is spmolete, we cannot help arriving at the conclusion that some very important element is wanting in the character of the people, which dearl bought experience will, it is to be hoped, soon teacl them, and example and more intimate relations with the rest of mankind induce them to adopt.

The Cum- beriazd Coxl field is not an exception to this; and the different ams of its coal, which are found to correszond in thickness, and other characteristics, although now in different valleys, as the ‘George's Creok’’ and ‘' Jan- ning’s Run,” &c., were doutless of the same geological epoch ; was formed under like, or rather the same geolo 8 ical cucumstances ; and, in the bulk are unquestiona- ply of the same quality. "Why then, it may be asked, are the sesms now found with a bigh ridge iaterveciog ? ‘the azewer is, that the parts of what was ouce the tame contiruons field, have besa rent saunder by pi; +i- cal ceuses, similar to thoee which have formed the “faults? and *dykes’’ in all coal fields, the basaltic, or trap-rock, (simfar to what forms the ** Palisados ” on the Hudson.) while in a semiflaid Atate, and by reason of scing great convulsion of the interfor of tue earth, has rent s-under the field, and forcing itaalf up from beiow the eval etzata, bas protruded itself through the vast fissures formed, and then congealed again forming vast ridges, with the debris of the sand-stone, clay-alate, aud other superincumbent strata, and tbe vopacated cox! beds falling upon the sides of the ridge, avd restiog upon ita inclined sides, form the present coal measures which crop cut here and there on the sidos of the ridge thus iormed. While the more liquid bacalt and otner ccoks, melted by the heat ofthe trep-rock, flow im this the swasiler fissures of the rand stone ard coal beds, and form the numercus faults ond dykes which ara found intersper-ed througbout all coal fields which are miosd for coxl Hence we have an explanation 0 tho diiler- ence ia tho quaiity of the coals whick lie contiguous to the trep-rock, and that which is found in the mere distant parta of the same saam of coal. The for- mer being expored to the more inteoee beat of the trap- rock, becume mere carbonized, and loses much of its bituminous character; while tbe iatter retains the cha- racteristics of the seam, us it was before the convulsion, which bas formed the ridge interveving. Aod thus’ we see that local specimens from the different points more orlecs contiguous to the trap or balsaltic dykes present uo reliable evidences of the real character of the coil ia the interior of the seam. or of the bulk of the coal mices, which we may thua wish to test. But the different seams of the same original coal field being of the same thick ners on both sides of the basaltic ridge and the name- rova smaller dykes, and being formed unaer tho same geclogical ci:cumstarces, precent the same character- iaiics, have the same general chavacter and, in the bulk, furp'sh the same quality of coal. Hence, we may fairly arsume that the reams of tke thickness, and in cor- responding positions on the different sides of the ridges, and dykes which have broken up the original coal moasures in che Cumberland coal barin, are of the ¢ame quality of cosl; will burn equally well; possess the evapera- tive power; contain tha same amount of carbon aad. ia ail reapects, be found slike except where they have been operated upon by local disturbances. The value of the mires then. which contaiz different parts cf what were once the eame coal seam. must depend upon the grester or lesa facilities of getting the coal out of the miue, aud of geting it into market afterwards. Your coal property porserres advanteges over wost others in that region in the facilities alluded to; and enorget'c and eccnomicel management in all which is required to reader itim mensely productive. Will you, then, rest eupinely, whila the mors active and chrexd apsculaters, having got control of the man- agement of your affeirs, shall have shaped the policy to make their own fortunes at your expense’? Or will you domaud of yeur seryants—the President and Directors of your company—that they shall at onso take active and ‘ficken measures to biiog down the coal to the rea- dbosrd ? ‘That they shall atones put on all the hands which can be eccomofated while workirg the mines; that they sal! at ox.ce put on all the boats, and make arrangements for all the cars which the canal and Baltimore and Ohio railroad can usefully employ.
