Considering the country mn all its extent, almost the wh le of it is occupied and held by the def-nders of the government, for, out of the tpir'y-six provinces which compose the republic, only eight are occupud (and thst only partially) by the fucciosos, and the re- maining twenty-eight are entirely fro- of thom, aad in arms in favor of constitutional law and order.

Between Ybague and Honda we have 6,000 men, composing the following columns, viz.:—2,600 men, who arrived thero on the 18th and 20th of July, under General Lopez, from the forces of Po- payan, Pasto, Boenaventura and Neiva; 1,000 men, of the united forces of the province of Old An- tioquia, who arrived at Honda under the ordeas of Pineda, Enao, Buitrago and Jaramillo; 1,100 mea, Who arrived at Ybague from the provioce ‘of Cauce; and 1,300 men, who were there under the orders of General Paris and Commandantes Mi ez and Arboleda. At the fnorth, between cana and Pamp ona, there are, first, 600 nen, under the orders of General Patria and Lieut Col. Antonio Maria Diaz, avd more than 500 men in Ocana, as the vanguard of the forces of General Mos quera, and under the immediate command of General Vicento.Gonz lez. Of the forces of Ocana there are two battalions of the-line, veteran soldiers, accustomed to all climates and fatigues. In the wagda'ena there are four armed vessels under the command of Col. Celis; and on the coast there are the garrisona of Cartagona, Santa- marta, and Banenquilla All the forces of the coast and the Isthmusof Pansma are under the command of Gen.

WREOK OF THE SH P DELIA MA‘I4, AND REPORTED L088 OP ALL ON BOARD—DI8‘STER TO THE baRK BABVEST AND L688 OF THIBTEKN PASSENGERS. We continue to receive urther account: of tho disas- trous effects of the late gale onth- shipping. The most important is the reported wreck of th, foe sbip Delia Maia, The account comes “y ‘e\grapi from Charles- ton, and states that she went asho ¢ nesr that sity, and became a total wreck, and that it wss foared all on board were lost, as nothing had been heard o’ them. She was commanded by Captain Pierce, and sailed from Liverpool on the 18th July for Charleston, with an assorted cargo and some passengers. As tbe lose of the crew and pas- sengera is not positively stated, the next news from her it is hoped will report their safety. ‘The Delia Maia was owaed by Mr. Caldwell, of Charies- ton, and was built in Richmond, Me, in 1960. She was 688 tons reguster, and velued at about $40,000, probably covered by insurances. Her cargo is stated to be vaiued st about $120,000, and is most likely insured in Europe. The bark Harvest, Capt. Crawford, arrived yesterday from Liverpool, left port 28th July, with 23 passengers, and on the 11th inst , when in lat. 40 20, lon, 68 30, ex- perienced s hurricane from E. N. E., with thunder, light- ning and heavy rein, blowing away foresail, spanker, spencer, and foretopgallant rail out of the gaskets; also a close-reefed fore and main topsail and topmast stay sail, and broached the vessel to, shipping « tremendous sea, which swept the decks of water casks and everything moveable, and also shifting the cargo. Jn the height of the tempest thirteen of the passengers were unfortu: nately lort. Becoming feasful of their safety in the fore part of the vessel, the steerage passengers made an at- tempt to get aft for greater security, in doing which thirteen poor souls were washed overboard when the ship broached to, and sank beneath the reging sea. The balance were successful in the endeavor, and were taken into the cabin. The Harvest passedon the 3th ult., in lat. 43 30, lon. 50 29, the wreck of a ship of about $00 tons, dismaated, with bowsprit standing. She was painted black, with ports, inside cresm color, and had anchors on the fore- castle. She did not appear to have been long adrift. Coptain Crawford also reports the following unfeeling conduct of a pilot bost:— On the 18th, between Montauk Point and Block Island, spc a pilot boat, who inquired if we wanted a pilot, and on being answered in the affirmative desired me to rouze too and he would run under my lee, which was done, when he asked what water we drow; and being told fourteen and a half feet. (and askod to bring some cooked provisions aboard with him, as 1 had lost all m: cooking utensils in the late gale,) ‘he went off and le\ ur. The boat was painted waite, had no number ia her sa‘ie, and app to have around stern. The steamship Nashville, arrived yesterday, reports passing on tke 13th, in Jat. 84 50, lon. —, the wreck of the brig Frontier, of Boston, lumber Inden, and aban- doned. She was bound to St. Domingo from Wilming- ton, and was dovbtless disabled in the same gale. Her crew have most probably been rescued by some passing vessel. The Frontier was 175 tons register, owned by Messrs. Oakes & Holbrook, of Boston, and valued at about $6,000. Ehe is probably insured in Boston. There is an insurance for $2,600 on her cargo in this city. A telegraphic despaich from Newport, Fla., dated 10th instant, reports the schooner Elizabeth ashore there, about four miles west of the light. There was no like- dihood of getting her afloat without discharging, for which the schooner Pottes was chartered. The Eliza- beth was bound to Newport from this city. The brigs Argo, of Waldoboro’, and Condor, of Fast Machias, bound to Boston from Philadelphia, both put into this plrt yesterday, to ropair damages received on the 1ith inet.

Chandler, at Providerge on the 14th, from Pictou, encountered the gale of the 10th inatant on George’s Banks, which swept her decks, and carried away the houses, &c.; and the brig New Era, at the same port, from Eastport, on the 10th, off Cape Cod Light, had to throw over about 30,000 feet of lumber to prevent the vessel going ashore. Many of the arrivals at this port yesterday wore more or less damaged in the gale, the particulars of which will be found under the marine head. TELEGRAPAIC.

Let it be remembered that, Joe » lag tne; Sant portion of the island called Sa De- mingo wae an io! part of the Haytien government, of which, according to its constifntion, aa hiee can be a citizen, or owns foot of fte soll. In fact, the Haytien government has never allowed any privilege te tale mae, exe t to remain during good Ibahavion oat to do certain kinds of business by a special license and the payment of a heavy tax. Indeed, so s! hes the bn bone government guarded this favorite it, that, although the Koman Catholic religion is that of the State, and specially protected, and more than nincty-niue hun- dredtha of the people are Roman Catholics, yet if it known that a white priest has meddied in any way with political affaira, he is unconditionally ordered to leave the country in a certain number of days, and some- times hours. Is it then likely that thousands, or even hundreds of white men should be found even in the whole island ¥ The fact is, in short, that the government of the United States, after having steadily retused to acknowl- edge the independence of Hayti and Liberia, simply be- caure the presence of colored ambassadors at Washington would be intolerable, now proposes to the se- called government of San Domingo, which is nothing more than a miserablo faction of colored men who have been so thoroughly ridden by Spantnh pricats, that they took offence at the religious toleration allowed by the Bay tien | rhs and #0, without the necessary re- sources, have set up for themselves. How vei strangely things are changed by a change of circumstances. appears that the hope of subjugating the tiaytisns, whe have never invaded the territory of any neighboring State, would render even colored ambassadors tolerable at Washington. And so a white colopy is soon to be planted in Fan Domingo, which, by ‘manifest cestiny,” will be annexed to the United States, ani po the Hay- tiens, who have always been more sinned against than sinning, must be attacked both by sca and land, and sub- jugated'to a foreign yoke Even the bombardment of Greytown was not so mean an act as the one here coa- templated.

But there is in all this ove encouraging thought. While ths Dominicans are wearing the chaina which by this act of basenesa they will justly deserve, the Haytiens will remain unmoved, either lamenting the. weakness or laughing at the folly of their children in the East. They may not be able to win glorious tf foreign lands, but they are strong at home.

JUDD, Baptist Missionary at Port-au-Prinoe. Arrival of F. X. Aubrey at Santa Fe. HIS DEATH IN A RENCONTRR WITH MAJOR WEIGHT- MAN. [From the St. Louis Republican, Sept. 11.} ‘A telegraphic despatch from our correspondent in Lex- ington, Mo., of yesterday's date, advises us of the death of F. X. Aubrey, the most daring and enthusiastic tra- velier of the age. This despatch states, that lotters had been received there by expross, addressed to Russell, Waddell & Co., from their agents in New Mexico, stating that F, X. Aubrey wes stabbed in a row with Weightman, in Santa Fe, about the 20th of August. an@ died fi tely. Aubrey had just made the trip San Franciseo Santa Ve, for a wager, in twenty-two days. Major Weightman was, two years ago, the dele- ene in ae New Mexico, and was an officer im the army during the Mexican war. Nothing is said of the circumstances which terminated the earthly career of the most intrepid traveller that the world has ever produced. In 1848, Mr. Aubrey was introduced to our readers as having performed the most remarkable travelling feat upon record. Before that time he was known to us ae & merchant of great enterprise, connected with the Santa Fe trade, going to and fro with Bow! promptacss aad success, bat it was not until }948 that he jormed the journey between Santas Ie and Independence, which gave ‘to him his fame for perseverance and end ‘On the 12th of Feptember of that year he left Sant with the intention of making « quick trip to the and he certainly accomplished it. He made the journey, of eight hundred miles, in five days and hours. If the travelling time only be counted, sct2time was four daysanda-half. During this slept two hours only, and ate six meals, He six horses, walked twenty miles on foot, and had swim creeks and endure rain fot twenty. four hours, oy Coty neaxly six hundred miles of the distance mud. By the aid of » steamboat, which bé found at Indepem- dence landing, made the whole distance from Saate Fe to St. Louis in a little over ten ds 200 miles. No one accompanied him over the prairies, and a por- tion of- the land trip was at the rate of one hundred apa ninety miles to the twenty-four hours. This eed earned for Mr. Aubrey the soubrigiet of the ‘“Bkimmer: tho Plains,” and he has tvorn it ever sinco; and the paa- ea hey yc to mare Pee foeeie, for we find y announced: the telegraph, 6 undertaken, for a wager, make oe alu'ance between San Francisco and Sante Fe in twenty-two days. Supposing him to have formed it, then, taking his trip in 1848 from Santa he way be said to have travelled from San Francisco te St. Louis im thirty-two days. For a series of years, in ex- tensive mercantile and New Mezieo—sometime extending his trade to Chihua- hua—and again returning to Missouri by the Southerm route, through Texas and New Orleans. His outite of goods were almost always obtained here, and he was ge- nerally sucesaful in disposing of them. To a man of so much enter, to conceive of an ex- pedition from New Mexico to Californis, was to execute it. He , in 1852, we think, resolved upon am {ibenend heed of sheep. "3y. ‘hs’ goot managemast he thouseni a iy lost very few, ifany, of them, and his enterprise was if i itish ie it Le i gald, gt the time, to have rowarded him with a of $70,000. Mr. Aubrey’s spirit of adventure, it a him to shape journeys for his personal beasfit, atwaye had something of public interest connected with it. Thus, on one of his expeditions between f and tanta Fe, he departed from the road ed in aed Ov! pro be the two points. And so, when returning from to New Mexico, he determined upon the etrength of own judgment, to take a new route, and ssible, the practicability of a routs 1@ Rio Uri pi for s railroad te enctet frat altoruin to Aibogaery 66 he i m California pen: conducted it fro “res le. terming inhisown mind the entire p: route tothat point His jourazl, which we at the time, was full of interest and adventure, Of hard fights with toe pe — ee and suifer- ings du ¢ through a count ecllttle Ktews, 7) Toul hed many thri ieee Laat year, Mr. Pc A et went to C: frou New Mexico, on @ adventure; and, having ao complished his object, he started on his return to ¥e, Bis company consisted of a doren or more perteam, most of thom Datives of New Mexico, but we do not re- collect any 5} reference in the Californis papers, to the time in which be wa to perform the journey. waa probably mode after@aris.
