Gadsden, would naturally awaken expectations of some event of im- portance having occcurred to induce him so unex- Brees. to quit his post and return to the United ‘tates. We are glad to be able to announce that that event is the conclusion of a treaty with Mexico for the purchase of the Mesilla Valley. We have not such full partgeulars on this important subject, in the papers before us, as we should like to be able to luy before or readers this morning A paragraph in the Vera Cruz £co del Comercio, of the Sth inst., announcing the arrival of Gen. Gadsden iu that city on the previous day, simply states that according to assurances which it received. be was on his way to Wash- ington to present to the government of the United Btates the treaty which he bad effected with Mexico on ths subject of the difficulties in refereace to Me. silla. Neither of the two Spanish papers of the city of Mexico, which we have received—the Siglo LX, aud the Omnijus—has any notice either of the clusion of the treaty, or the departure of Gen ds den from the capital. Tne affair, therefore, woald seem to have been discreetly managed, and the de partore ef Gen. Gudsden to have been made very guietly, if not suddenly.

Counsel was taken, and it was decided to surprise Santo To- mas, a small market town, sitaate about forty-seven miies from the bay. Santo Tomas is an old Jesuit ission station, with a church. convent, and a few ouses. In the whole district scarcely two hundred armed men could be collected. The expedition of | adventurers proceeded by land across a dry and desert country, completely covered with rocks aud | hills. Taey had carried off trom @ farm si-uate near the bay some horses and otver beasts of burden, and were advancing without any mistrust, when they found themselves suddenly surrounded and attacked by Captain Castillo Negrete, the captata command- ant of Santo Tomas, who had received intelligence of their movement.

The government bas determined to adopt the most stringent measures for the suppression of crime throughout the country, and rid the highways of the bands of robbers and thieves which have so long in- fested the different sections; and the organization of companies of gens d’armes in different parts of the country, to pursue and capture these robbers, has been begun. The State of Guerrero is the only State that has not as yet adhered to the “Act of Guadalajara.” It is tumored that Mr. Sierra y Rosa was about to resign as Minister of Finance. M.

The State of Coahuila has also adhered tothe act. And now we may say that all Mexico has tamely submitted to the yoke of the Testamen- tary Dictator.

[From the New Orleans Teas Delta, Jan. 15.] The government hasreceived accounts from Lower California to the effect that the expedition of Walker en entirely routed. The intelligence is obtain: | ed fava letter’ of Sr. Rafael Espinosa, who, with | his successor in the government of Lower California, had been taken prisoner at La Paz, and accompanied the expedition. His statement is to the following effect :— ‘The Caroline having on board himself and Sr. Re- bolledo. left La Paz on the 6th of November, and ar- rived at Cape St. Lucas on the 8th. He says the ex- pan disembarked with the intention of estab- | lishing here the capital of the new republic, the so- lemn proclamation of which was to be made the next day. The appearance in the offing of a vesse! caused | them to suspend their preparations and prceare to | defend themselves, as she was supposed to be the | Mexican man-of-war Gue-tero. After the disappear- auce of this veasel, they re embarked and proceeded to the Ensenada de Todos los Santos, or All Saint’s Bay, as it is known to traders along the coast, where they arrived on the 29th of November. This place is about thirty-four leagues south of San Diego. . The account of the engagement which followed is nearly similar to that which we took from the San Francisco Herald of the 16th ult., and is derived, doubtless, from the same source—that is the Mexi- cans themselves. We may, therefore, readily sup- pose that there has been considerable exaggeration. On the day succeeding their arrival at Todos Santos an expedition was despatched to Santo Tomas, di3- tant about forty-seven miles This is a sniall place, and was formerly a Jesuit mission, containing a church, @ convent, and some few houses. The object was thought to be to take prisoner the military head of the colony, D. Fran. Castillo Negrete. The report was that they were repulsed by Negrete before reaching Santo ‘Tomas, with a less of three killed, and were driven back to headquarters, where it is said he surrounded them and cut off all communication from without. Seaor ee goes on to say that, in the meanwhile he and Sen. Rebolledo began approaching the boat- swain of the Carcline, who it seems was left in charge of the veasel, and by working on his fears and offering him large bribes, they succeeded in per- suadiug bim to abandon the expeditionsists and re- store the Caroline to her owner, Mr. Robinson, who lived in Guaymas, dropping them in the way at | has ou the 16th ult. ‘This letter of Espinosa was forwarded to Mazatlan | hy the scheoner Josephine, and from thence to the city of Mexico by Senor Yanez, of the department of Sinaloa, who says that Espinosa and Rebolledo | bad formed a junction at La Paz wi'n the forces that | had been sent to their support ander Col. Ochoa; and that they bad immediately taken steps to pursue the remains of the expedition. These aceousts, of course, coming through Mexi- | cau channels, are to be received with much allow- ance. One thing, however, is certain, that the Caro- | line has desertei, and it is more than probable that | the expedition stained some check near the En- da de To re ed— wh counts received trom San Fraucisco—may result | » the plan of Guadalejara, The Trait nion of the 21st ult., says that Guerrero is the only State which has not sent in its adhesion. Sr. Pedro Mendiondo has been appointed Secreta- ry of the order of Guadalupe. ‘Lhe present titles of Santa Anna under a decision of the Council of State are Captain General and Highness, Santa Anna published a manifest on the 17th ult., in which he says that of the honors and powers con- | ferred by the Council of Stats, he can only accept | the discretionary powers granted, the nominating of his successor, and the title of Highness. By a decree of the 10th ult., the Is'and of Carmen is opened to foreign commerce. Certain conditions sre annexed, of which the following are the most | important:—The articles introduced must be con- sumed on the i:land, and canuot be introduced into apy otver port of the Republic; the general tariff of the 1st of June, 1858, ia to be in force the same as in the other ports; f reign vessels, which have already iegularly Gischarged in apy other port, may go to Carmen to load, without paying additional tonnage dues; but vessels coming trom foreign ports to load wita dye wood at Carmen must present the certifi cates of their respective consuls,and pay the tonnage ones, By a decree of the Post Office Department, special couriers will leave Mexico for Vera Oraz, on the 5th and 10th of each month, at 3 P.M , % coanect with the Texas, on the Sth aud 22d, and will remain at Vers Cruz to carry back the Texas’ mails, on her be charged double the ordinary rates, to defray the Toe order cf Jesuits in Mexico have given in their formal adhesion tu tue President, and tendered their felicitations through Dr. Arilla; A decree of the 22d ult., re-establishes at Oajaca the cflice for the collection of the duty on cochiueal, sholished in 1849. Mons. Etienne Ambroy, the French Consul at ‘Tampico, bas returned to bis post. Quite a severe shock from an earthquake was ex- perienced at Durango on the 24 uit. It is reported tha: orders had been given to the British man-of war Virago to protect the coasts of Mexico against all future attempts, similar to that of Walker. A grend ball in honor of the Pre-ident is spoken of the papers contain notices of several executions for robberies snd murders, and the cousequent sensi- i line in the number of those offences. The celebrated Publo Morales, formerly sagristan of the convent of San Francisco, in Mexico, ad dis | tugnisied for the number and bolaness of his rob- | and bis good fortuve in escaping capture, has berie been residing for over a year, and leading a quietand respectable life.

Port of San José, December 18, 1853, A frightful tragedy lately o>curred on board the ship Amelie, at Vera Croz. Mad. Mauriol had with her a young lady whose beauty captivated a Mexi- can gentleman, one of the passengers. His addresses were rejected, whereupon he armed himself, desven- ded to the cabin; and after vainly employing entrea- ties and menaces, stabbed his victim to the heart. It is said that the conduct of the Mexican had for some time tees indicated mental derangement. A dreadful affair had also occurred at Guanajuato. Mr. Marcelino Rocha, a sore ee universally es- teemed, and a son of one of most respectable families of Guanajuato, was on the eve of marriage with a young lady of high character. A cousin of the bridegroom became enamored of the young lady, explanations took of , and a hostile meeting oc- curred, from which Marcelino Rocha was taken mortally wounded. He died within three hours. The murderer has been arrested. A View of Rome and the Eepey Government, By an Italian Liberal. [From the Eoo a’ Italia, Jan. 14.)

The Pontiff himself presided and pronounced the opening address in person. He spoke at leagth of the finan- cial crisis in which the State was plunged, confessed his ignorance of political economy and his inability to prove a remedy for such crying evils, and entreat- ed the councillors to aid him in the search for some cure for the public miseries. For his part, he felt that he was not responsible therefor to the Sta‘e, and that he stood blameless before God. He was moved to tears while uttering these words, and concluded by stating that certain projects would be laid before them and submitted for their discussion and ap- proval. In the course of his speech he freqnently in- @ulged in lond complaints and recriminations against Protestant England, and the American Union, for the revolutionary and irreligious doctrines which are propagated under the sanction of their respective governments. The councillors are anything but re: ntatives of the people, being elected by no vote, and neither knowing nor caring any’ ng about their fellow countrymen. Chosen by the Minister of the Interior from lists presented by the provincial dele- getes, they are always the complacent tools of the oversment; and should any one of them feel a ti- r:] aspiration, he must instantly smother it, at the risk of immediate disgrace. Their ae are private, no record of them appearing in the official journal; and as the names of the twenty seven men (the fall complement of the body) are unknown to the people, they undergo no personal responsibility, and as a whole enjoy a large measure of general contempt. Such is the assembly iw whose hands are placed the destinies of cur poor country, which might be so flourishing. The public treasury is exhausted. The government clerks and employes have not and cannot be paid, and dun uslessly for the arrears of their last month’s salary. The same ae is the case with pensions, which are only paid in bank b Coin is extremely ecarce. So complete a prospect of ruin cannot be explained, especially when it is boroe in mind that the army and the other ex- penses of the State have been diminished at least two | thirds since the reign of Gregory XVI. The govern- ment employes bave been reduced to one-tenth by the Censura, a secret tribunal ; no great works are being undertaken. The immense issues of paper money are. entirely represented by Pontificial bons, which were created, as is known, by the government. One circumstance in relation to this bas come to my knowledge from an accredited source, avd seems likely enough: Some oars 8go, & vessel was about to run into Civita Vecchia, having on board 700,000 scudi in gold and silver, formin, rt of the Roths- child loan, when she was accosted by asother steam- er, which ordered her off, and forbade her landing her cargo in apyhape or wey The motive ot the countermand was obviously the receipt of informa. tion that the money thus loaned was not intended to be used in redeemiog the paper currency, and a de- sire on the part of the owners to appropriate it for the time to come other purpose, as the prime objest of the loan was thns defeated ; added to this, the depreciation in which the paper now stands, and the igh price commanded by coin, showing conclusively the pre- carious position of the government it, and ren- dering it a matter of some doubt whether the scrip of the loan could be sold. At the balls aud receptions given by the French Ambassador and General, tne Roman offieers used to be constantly invited, and as constantly to refuse to attend. Piqued by their refusals, you must hear how the Frenchmen revenged themselves: General orders issued from the French commandant—who, a8 you are aware, has authority over our troops—im- perousty requiring the Roman officers to attend not only the sorrées of the Ambassador and the General, urder penalty of arrest, butatvo the eveniag parties of the latter, where our poor fellows go through this new turn of duty in mortal ennui. You must admit that this is rather a rude sort of vengeance; and yet, when our people attempt to retaliate by raillery or tatire, the French complain and have them sent to jail. Metts, nocturnal assaults, and robberies are a3 common as ever. The police never interfere, being busy enough in arresting liberals. It often le that a diligence is stopped, and the driver and pas- senger completely stripped oftheir baggage. Quite lately @ reverend Councillor of State, who was coming to Rome, was robbed of all he had, including his portfolio, with his passport, and narrowly e3- caped imprisonment, poor fellow, for want of the document. The French army has a firewood yard for its own use in a street near the monastery of St. Susannah, close to the Diacletian baths. The monks complain- ed to the Cardival Vicar, and begged that the fire- wood might be removed, asthe soldiers amused them- selves by climbing the piles of wood and watching the girls inthe garden. The Visar applied to the municipal officer, and requested him to communicate the request of the monts to the General. No answor came at first; but a recond remonstrance baviog been sent in, Moutrea! replied ‘that he kept the firewood there because it pleased him so to do, and that if the inside of the monastery had suited hia better he would have turned the monks out and taken it.” After this reply, municipal officer, vicar and monks thought it best to say no more. The concentration of French at Civita Vecchia is confirmed, but not the garrisoning of the proviaces by the Papal troops. The French have*been suc- ceeded by the latter at Viterbo, Civitacastellana, Narai, &c.; but a strong force of ail arms atill remains in Rome as a pontifical guard Insane Asylum of Tennessee —Causes of In. fa aty. From the report of the trustees of the Tennessee Insane Asylum we gather the following facts: — The new institution was opened for the reception of patients in March, 1852,and since that time to the Ist October, 1853, there have been admitted, in- clusive of sixty patients from the old iastitution, one huidred ard eleven males and sixty five females, making @ total of one hundred and_ seventy-six. 1 the:e forty two have been discharged 4s restored; thirteen havye‘been discharged mach improved; tive improved and five unimproved; two have eloped, end pine die3.

Of the forty- two discharged as restored, al! were, at the time of leaving, capable of resumiag the position in society cocapied by them previous to the attack But two have since relapsed, so far as the Superintendent has been able to ascertaia, and in both cases intem- perance, the original cause, has reproduced the mels’y, Eight of the thicteen discharged as “much improved’ were removed prematurely by their frievds, and the Superintendent is satisfied that they wonld have entirely recovered had they been permitted to remain a stort time . e re moval of the other five was advised. Most of these discharged as “improved,” and all of those dis- charged as ‘‘unimproved,”’ were incurable cases, and their removal was advised.

They have sent us a Handbook of German Literature, which contains some very judi- cious selections from the best German authors; a Manual of French Verbs, by M.

Mr. Virtue, the publisher of the Art-Journal, has sent us one of those beautiful illustrated works which attest the high standard of art in England. It is en- titled The Pilgrim Fathers, and contains a des- cription of the departure, voyage, and early adven- tures of those pioneers of civilization ia the West. The text is by W. H. Barrier; and from a cursory glance at the work, are of opinion that he has done his subject justice. The chief attraction of the work lies in the prints it contains. These are steel cuts, engraved with elaborate skill from designs, in many instances of surpassing beauty. Such plates as the view of Delft-Haven, which serves as a fron- tispiece—Boston Church—Scrooby—the Burial Hill at Plymouth—the Mayflower in Cape Cod harbor— and others—can be admired by the hour. That soft- ness in the tint, entirely free from greasiness, and never interfering with the clearness of the outline, seems unattainable out of England. Some day, we trust, we shall see our artista discover the secret, and produce plates equal to those of Messrs. Virtue. We wish we could speak in similar terms of the Historical Collections of Georgia, by Rev. Gaonar Wairs, (New York: Pudney & Russell.) It seems to have cost considerable labor and research, and will doubtless interest all who have a stake in the Empire State of the South.

It is‘some sixteen or seventeen years that gold miniog has been cartied on in the southernmost point of Luzon, ia the Province of Camarines, south. There are at the present time two extensive mining companies at this point; ose is called the Anchor of Gold—the cther the Queen Mother, The Anchor of Gold, according to the latest news from the mines, has discovered a veim which it is stated yields out of 100 Ibs. of earth trom $16 to $20 of gold. The vein is said to extend, as near as can be judged, some three miles in length, and from two to six feet in breadth, averaging one to ly feet in a @ “ e company of the Queen Mother, it appears, paid more attention to quartz mining thee rafter washing. The natives also get gold from the bed of the rivers; but in small quantities. I+ is also re ed here, on very good authority, that there is an English mining company in treaty with the Queen Mother, in Spain, for the quartz that they now have in Camarines. What terms they offer I do not know. They intend establishing an extensive quarts mill, and there ,is no doubt that they will come te terms, and this will be done. The new mines that have been discovered are on the northernmost part of Luzon, in the Province uf Na Ecijor, by a branch company of the ‘‘ Queen Mother,’ and commences its operations in November. In the Provinoe of Soude there have been mines discovered, but to what ex- tent remains tobe known. The laws of gold mining in the islands are very liberal to the miner. You can clear, after declaring your mine, 150,000 square yards, to be taken in squares or triangles, or of am oblong form providing they join.

RAILROAD COLLISION AT MILFORD—WILD RACE OF & LOCOMOTIVE. (From the Cincinnati Commrroial, leo 31.) eeterany morning a collision occurred on the Miami road, at Milford. There was no loss of life, but the circumstances were quite remarkable. There been an unusuaily heavy fall of suow the night Rerees, by which the track became heavy, and all he trains fell behind time. The mail train coming into the city was sone thirty-five minutes behi time at the Milford station, where it was due at 9.25. Conductor Osgood was on the platform helping ladies to and from the cars, when the whistle of the Hills- boro’ freight train was heard, and the locomotive seen coming around the sharp curve above Milford at full d. The conductor of the freight train was on the engine, and told his engineer to check up. The signal was given, but the brakes were insuffi- cient to hold the wheels, and the cars came boommng down the slippery track with abated but dangerous speed. The wheels were reversed, and the con- ductor and engineer jumped from the engine. A brakeman on the mail train shouted to the passen- gers in the near car to get, out, but before they could escape, the descending locomotive came into the car with a terrible crash, and went nearly through, splintering wood and iron, but—and there’s the marvel—killing not one of the twenty passengers, the most of whom had got wel! forward before the iron horse came thundering over their seats ! Mr. Pease, a young man employed as agent of the company at Cla) ayille, Waa snynteg in the breast, and had an arm broken by the flying timber. He was taken to the Montauk House, and, by order of the race company’s agents, secured every possible at- ntion. Rober: G. Corwin, of Lebanon, was knocked about in a lively manner, but eszaped without serious im- jury. ER. Hawley and wife, who reside on Seventh street, in this city, had a very narrow escape. As the locomotive of the freight train approached, Mr. Hawley, who was recently married, and was almost distracted for the safety of his wife, rashed out of the car as the engine came in, and then endeavored to get hie wife out through the windows. The lady escaped unhurt. Mr. Roll was considerably bruised, and had his hands badly cut by the ginas. George Ross, Esq., of Lebanon, was considerably bruised, but was comparatively well last evening. The accident arose from the slippery condition of the track, caused by snow, and Dogiigence oa, the ain, in appreaching the. station oo swifty. fos > ation too 8 ro is the first accident of this kind that has-ever oc- curred on the road. When Mr. Watt, engineer of the mai! train, heard the crash of the collision, he supposed his own traia would be driven over him, and, with bis assistants, sprang off. The furnace had jist been crammed with wood, and there was a full head of steamon. The force of the blow uncoupled the locomotive and tender from the baggage car, at the = 1° instant jerking the lever, an wing the throttle valve wide open. Away sped the locomotive |\ke an ar- row, or, if we might so say, like a flat «f Omnipo- bse) sweeping down the track at seventy ‘miles an jour. The escaped engine came howling by Plaiuvilie visible for an instant to the appalled villagers; switched off into the double track as lightuing from one steel rod to another divergent, and thuvéered on to the city, whose dead mignt new have beeu seen from the iron disc of this fiery comet—but there was none to see, for rider, or driver, or living sumon soul, had the engine none. On, straight on—tue city! et 8) | ! iy the furnace door blew open, the draught , and a@ little way above the upper enzive house, on @ heavy up-grade, the locomotive’s breath was spent; it came toa dead stand, and stood there silent and cold forming as much a part of tue still wintry landscape as the whitened rock and shrouded trees on the hill side above.
