8 Our Acapulco Correspondence. Acarvtco, Mexio>, June 30, 1855. &t. John's Day—High Muss—Novel Quadrilles— Nocturnal Festivities—Fandangos—St. Peter's Day—Donkeys in Demand. ‘The 24th, 25th, and 26th of June are celebrated in this country as the feast of St. John. We were wakened at early dawn by the cathedral bells. On our arrival at the Plsza, we found the cathedral fail andthe “high mass” nearly over. Handreds of bright faces and beautiful forms moved in quick succession by us. The band marched off—the priest went home, and we were alone, At3 o'clock P. M. the ‘‘quadrilles” commenced assembling. Imagine fifty quadrillea, each consisting of from twenty to s hundred peraons, male and fe- male, mcunted upon graceful horses, richly compa: risoned with saddles and bridles of silver. Each quadrille bas its capitan (sither male or female), and under her direction they march im couples through the streets. Eavh rider shows off his horse to ths best advantage. At5 o'clock they assemble at the race ocurze. Tne length of the course is 500 yards, in a straight line. Two, and sometimes four or six, make a race. The course is lined on either side with senoritas cn horseback. The band strikes up— off go four, then two. then six, and so on in rapid succession until the course is filed with horses a full speed. Down goes a rider, horse and all. No one stops forhim. Hs must take care of himself. The ‘adies laugh at him, the boys jeer him, the doga bark ethim. Delay is Jangerous, so he ie up and Off aa soon ag possible. Ihe scene to a looker on is rich beyond description. The fan has just com- menced. The quadrille re-form ander their capi- tans, We were fortunate enough to be in the quadrille whcse capitan wae Senorita Thomasita, the gov- @ence’s davghter, mounted on a thorough bred charger, who seemed to bs conscious of the rank and beauty of his mistresa. She led us through the principal streets t» the Goverror’s houss, where we drank to our brignt and peautiful capitan ia s9ark- ling champagne. Bach ove of us then being far- nished with a bottle of wine or brandy, we com- menced the pleasures of tue night. The capitan commenced the natioaa! anthem, accompanied by several guitars, axcordeous, &. Then came the grand chorus, which was taken up by two other quadrijles as they passed. Laen came the gallop, and then a halt, when a lone song stirred our hearts, and thep--s drink. Tn front of all the p'incipal houses were platforms for dancing, and Ngote and banners and music. At each of these the queen of the night, the paer- less Thomasits, would dismount, and, selectiag a cavalier, dance a fandapgo aud the quadrille--tne le keeping time by clapping their hands and and 80 we spent the night. I have ania- distinct remembrance of seeieg a gracefal form slide from a saddie, ani then re-appear oa a balcony and wave a enowy scarf. Further than this dep2- pect saith not. ‘The 25th snd 26th pssied off the same way. ‘The 27th and 25rn were days of rest. The 29th the feast of St. Poter was celebrated in the same way, wito this exception - jackasses were the cbargere. Horses were not allowed in the ae Teaw twenty-five senorites in one quad- , ll mounted on jackasses. I cannot imagine what pcesible copnrction there can be between St- Peter and a jackass, and no one here could tell m3.

My last news was addressed you from Bath, ia Steuben county —this fiads main the City ot Flour. ‘The ride betwoen the two places, over the recently opened Corning and Baffslo road, was most delight fal. The first part of it passes along the valley of the Conhocton; itthon mounts the hizh land be- tween the Valley of th» Coshocton and the Gene- see, and finally descends into the latter valley, Everywhere along the line the road, on both sides, was lined with evidences of a most exuberant. harvest, Every product, with the single aad by n> moats hopelessexception of cora, is in the most thrifty condition. Inthe Valley of the Ganeses thiags are nearly two weeks in advancsof the Valley of the Conhoc- ton. Harvesting had not yet commenced, though many fields were nearly in a condition for the sickle.

The fol- lowing message to the House from the Governor, was read:-— To the House of Representatives of the Terri’ Kansas: I returm to your House, in which they bry the bill entitled an act to prevent the aale of tavortonting liquors and gamesof chance within one mile of the Snawmee Manual Labor School, in the Territory of Kansas; and the bill entitled an act to establith a j oa at the town of Atchinon, in Kassas Territory, without wy approval. I see nothing in the bills themselves to prevest my sanction of them, and my reasons for disap- Proval have been doubtless antizipated by you as ne. Cessarily rssulting from the opinions expressed in my —_ Vahred ing rng a question is of the powers of the Legislature, and whether the Legislature 13 now in seasion at place re. nized as a seat of government where the business of ion can be ly or legitimately carriei on. The creation of at of government, in any case, by competent authority, carries with ita nectssary and upavoidable bg ge ion from the meaning and force of the term that the laws which are to be passed for the government of the State or Territory, shall be there enacted, and therefore makes it the clear duty of the by ‘ure to perform their functions at that plac it have no other object or purpose, and we can- not for a moment suppose that the ai creates a seat cf governwent contempla: acts end powers of government might be performed and exercised a8 well at any other place, It clear! means that the enactment of laws, which is the highest! an¢ most important function of governmental power, abould be exercised at that place, and no other. ‘This proposition is so plain that it will probably not be controverted and ite correctness seems to be admit- ted by the Legislative Assembly in the fact of the pas- sage by them of an act constituting this the seat of government, before they would remove here from the piece which they were convened. Were that act valid and within the powers of the Territorial Legisla- ture, the question could not arise. To its validity, how- , 1 cannot give my assent, and I propose now to my rearons fot that opinion. @ wrole Territorial goverament is brought iato istance by the act of Congress p a to it we must look for the limit is lative, judicial and executive powers. The 22d section provides that the legislative power and authority ‘‘of suid Territory ahsll 14 In the Governor and Legis- lative Assembly,’? and then proceeds to declare how the Assembly shall be constituted and the firat Assem bly elected, and at the close we find the following lan- uage:— bh “Phe persons thus elected shall meet at such place and on such day asthe Governor shall appoint; but here- after, the time, place aad manusr of holding and con- ductiog all elections by the people, and apportioning the representation in the several counties or districts to the Council and House of Representatives, according to the ber of qualified voters, aball be prescribed by law, a8 the day of commengemvnt of the regular sessions c? the Legislative Assembly.” It will thus be seen, that although Co: gives to the Legis)ature the power to determine the time when the assembly ehall thereafter moet, they do not confer power to ix the place. We will ace, on further exami- nation, the reason for this, snd that Congress choose to retein and exercise this power themselves. By the i6th rection it provides, “ That the legislative power of said Territory shall extend to all rightful aub- Jects of legislation consistent wita the constitution of the Unitea 3: and the provisions of this act.”” By the 31s on it is provided, ‘That the seat of government of said Territory is hereby located tempo- tarily at Fort Leaveaworth.’’ and fartaer provision is mace for the occupat.on of buildings not needed for mili Seryinx pees i by the apprepriation bil! pagsed August 5, 1951, ses- tion 6, Congress enacted --T: in to» event that the Secretary of War aball deem it inconsietent with the interests of the military service to furnish « sufficient portion of the military buildings at Fort Laavenworth for tbe use of the Territorial government of Kansas, the snm of $25,(00 sha'l be, aad in thet coatinzency, is hereby, approsriated for the eraction of public bnild: ings for the ure of tue Legislature of the Territory ef Kansas, to be expended under the direction of the Ge- vernor of said Territory. It is worthy of note here, although rot precisely a Jezal argument upon the construction of there asta, that within a few days tefore the passage of the last recited uct, Covgreon refused to make the appropriation, cou- pied with a clanse repssling the rection which fixed the temporary seat of government at Fort Lavenworth. It is enough, however, 10 know that they did not repeal it ‘The apprepriatien was made, leaving that section in fall force. On the Sd cay of March, 1855,Congresa made a fur- ther aprrepriation ot $25,000 tor pablic buildings, with ‘the proviso that eaid money, or any part thereot, or any portion of the money heretofore appropriated for this purpose, aball not be expended until the Legislature of Baio Terr.tory have fixed by law the permanent seat of gover . This last enactment ints: First, that th x the permantnt reat cont guisbes trom a temporary one; and second, that no part of the appropriation is 16 be expended at the temporary seat of government which Congress persisted om keap- ing at Fort Lavenworth. ‘hus stood the legislation of Congress when the Legis: lative Arsembly was covvened. The execative vested with power to desigoate the place where they should first meet. Congrers hac themselves fixed a tem- porary sest of governmect et which the Legislatare cou'd meet, in case they should leave the firet place of meeting, or in case a secoad Legislature should convene before the permanent saat of government was fixed; and the Legislature were authorized to Gx a permsven’ t of government where the appropriat:ons were to be ex- ended PrTuis jatter power they may at any time exe the two former they clearly power to repesl and overrole an a Te only authority uoder which the Leg! sembly are mtn ugat the Shawnes Manual Labor school, 190 act of their own, pas th inst , at the place where they were convened by the executve, enti- tled ‘‘An act to remove the seat of governmsnt tempo- rarily to the Shawnee Manual Labor School in the Terri- tory of Kansas. At th where they were first convened, the Le- gislature could undoubtedly have fixed rmanent reat of government where the appropriation couli have been expenced, and adjourned at once to suih place; or if they chose ‘to delay acting upon that measure, they could in the meantime have adjourned to the temporar, seat cf government which Congress hed establisned; but it is impossible for one to perceive how they can estatlieh a temporary seat of government at a diflerent place from that at which Congress nas said it should be, without such a conflict as to render the Legislature actually vord, We Gnd in the orgavic act many instances of le; tion which were intended only to be provisional, intended to lastonly until] the subject to which they re- late should pass with the hands of the the Legislatare— such as the quali tcatior f electors—times and places ef courts—detining of a &e.; but in each of these the power to chal sions of the organic act is expressly piven, whist in regard to the temporary seat of government it is not iven. ‘ Indeed, in view of the fact that Congress has not in- cluded this on the provisional legislation—thatin speak- ing of the day and place for ali meetings of the Legista- ture after the first, they give power to the Legislatare to fix the day, but cot the place—that the only power given to the Legislature in reference to the seat of government is the power to fix the permanent place where the appropristion hell be expended, and the restriction of jegis!ation to matters consistent with the organic act—all concur to prove that she act of the Territorial Legislature, a temporary seat of government, is umsuthori void. Did the Legislature pos general powers, and not trammelied as they are by the restriction of consistency with the organie act, their power to change the seat of government at pleasure could not be dou' ‘As it is, af they can contravene the 31st section, I see no reason why they may not equally as well pass laws in conflict with any other provision which the bill contains. It seems to be plain that the Legislature are now in eersion, so far as the place is concerned, in contraven- tion of the act of Congress, and where they have no right to sit, and cam make no valid legislation. Eater. taining these views, {can give no sanction to any bill that may be passec : and if my reasons are not satisfac- tory to the Legislative Assembly, it follows that we must act independent of each other. The necessary embarrassment consequent upon thin difference of opinion between the Legigiative Assembly and the Executive, will be of so grave a character, and 80 desirable to avoid, if possible, that I have mozt ear- nestly scrutinized the grounds of my opinion, and t for all the arguments against it with ditigent care anda willingness to be convinced, but I am con- strained to say that reflection and examination only verve to rivet upon my mind more and more strongly the conviction of its correctaess.

[From tue Pottavills Journal, July 28 | A feeriu! sccicent occurrea on Tuesday morning at Mr. Agara’s Belmont colliery, in this county—the piace ja better known b; theold name of the Five Points. Four persons—two men and two boys—have been taken out of the slope, dead and dreadfully mangled--one more is not likely to live, and six otzers are seriously injured. It bas been, aod may be, denominated an exploeion of gas; but more pro- bably it was a powder explosion, for the latter did the most irjury, though the “firedamp,” as it is gereray cslied, exploded first and ignited tre powder. the minirg boss, Mr. John W. Davis, went into the mines eerly inthe mcrning as usual, and ex. amined the works ca-etully before at y of the miners were st the works. He found ‘‘fze” in one ot tne “bresste” rear the face of the gangway. This breast wos worked by James Silverthorn and son, and was the only part of the mine considered dan- gerous. Mr. Davis met Silverthorn and told nim twice that bis piace was full of fire, and that he sbould not ventare init with a naked Jamo uatil the gas was driven out. Accordingly Siiverthora tcok the davy, or safety lemy, and commenced to brosh tire out of the breast. Bat, unfortanately, severslcfthe miners were seated aroacd the bot- tom of the breast, injthe gangway, with their naked lamps, taking their accustomed “ whiff’ before com- wencizg work, and near tnem were between two aud three kegs of powder, cpen and unprctected.

The effect of the shock was feltat @ great cistance from the scene, and “the mires tbroughont tremble: with the concussion. Ccal, rocks and material were hurled witn dreadfal velccity ter out toward the slope. But the damage Gone to the work, tre amount of which cannot yet be fally ascertained, is nothiog in comparison to toe dreadful lors of life and limb--the horrid suffer- ing whicn the fearful accident occasioned.

James Silverthorn, the father of Enoch, is not expected to live—since dead. Some of the other six are severely injared. There are eleven killed and wounded. It seems that nope of tbe men were badly barned, except Silverthorn, who was in the midst of the gas when it exploded. The res: were mutilated by the pewder, which tore out the props and cover- ed the men in the vicinity with fragments of rock and coal. They were oorribly mangled. From Lake Superior. The Saut Ste. Marie Journal, of the 23d, b:ings us some items ot intelligence. The sbip caaal is in excelleut condition. A month’s trial proves it to be fully equai to the rer- vice required of it. ‘‘ fhe embankments,” saya the Journal, “ prevent no indications of weakneas. ‘They are as firm as it is possivle for them to b2 made.” The caisson gate answers the purpose very well, and the Journal thinks will turn out to be the most effectual means of closing the canal, in cage of break, of any that could be devised, not even excepting the guard lock. It can be worked with all the facility of a lock ¢ at the seme tine posessing the advantage of being in one section, and requiring but one movement to open and shat it. ‘There was 4 singular rise and fall of water in the caral on the 18th, probab'y occasioned by winds above. It is described by the Journal as foilowa:— About nite o'clock A. M., Wednesday. the water in the canal was observed to rise quite fast. [his continued until ten o’clock, when tne water reached the height of 14 feet 2 inches, as determined by the pavge at the upper lock gate. (There was a slight ecze from N. W.at the time.) This was about 5 inches above ita usual level. The water remained at this point for the space of about ten minutes then fell to a height of about 15 teet, at which poin it again commenced rising, and reached 13 feet 6 inctes, At1lo’clock the water began to fall gra dually, until at 12 o'clock it had fallen to the heign of 10 feet 9 inches, from which point it rose and tel alternately until 4 o'clock, en it assumod its vsual level. When the water was 11 feet 6 inches the wind changed from the north west to the south each, which, though hardly perceptibie here, was plainly shown by the direction in which the clouds were moving. ‘he water did not vary in deptn above the rapids during this time. From Fort Pierre AND THe Urrse Missovni.— The latest mformation received at this piace trom Fort Pierre and Uppsr Missouri is in ter from Moj.

The two acts stand together—onpe relating to constables in the towns in the State generally, andthe other relating to the city of New York particularly. ‘They are wholly different, and wholly inconsistent with each other, and capnot have effect in the same place.

The particular statute passed with especial reference to the city of New York, controls the city, and effectually overcomes any reasoning founced upon the sugeertice that wards in the city are to be taken as included in the word towns in the general act. On the revision of 1828, the general law in relation to towns was in sub- stance re-enacted, ani the act relating to the city of New York was left unrepealed. (1 K. 5, 346, ec, 21; 38R8, 10) So. tbat the two lawa remaimed in full force, (80 far a relates to such benda,) as before. ‘Again, on examination of title 3, of chap. 11, part, 1, of the Revised Statutes, (1B. 8. p. 348,) in which ses. 21 of article 2 1 found, it willbe seen’ that few, if any, of its provisions are applicable at sll to this city. The ‘*Act to reduce. &c.,” above referred to, being in full force, provides that the bond to be executed with surety or sureties by any constable, shall be given to the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonality of the city inthe penal sum of five hundred dollars, ana be delivered to he Mayor, who shall judge of and determine the com- |g Petency of the sureties, and file the bond with the Clerk of the city avd county. And in the case of ‘any re- covery’? by any person against any such constable, 1 be luwful for the Jadge or Judges ot t (now for this purpose the Court of ,) upon motion in open Court, and “ upon such recovery hath been had,” and that judgment at tue time of such motion is to order the bond to be put in suit; and w' thereon is obtained the said Court shall, upon mot open Court, direct so much to be tevied thereon as will pay the debt or damages recovered by the party ag- grieved, with costs, and to be paid to such party; aad the act provides for a further levy upon recovery of other juégments against such constables upon like m9 tion. The bond upon which the present action was brought is framed in accoréance with Sec. 21 of toe sta- tute relating to towns above referred to (1 Rev. Stat. 346), incorporating therein the further provision relating to distress fcr rent in this city. (Sec. 49, 2 Rev. St., p. 501.) Ang in relation to militia. fines. | (Chi , Sec, 89 of Laws of 1847, vol. 1; p. 205.) It is a bond to the people of the State, and not to the Mayor, &., of this city. It is appreved by a supervisor, and not by the Moyor, It isin the sum of $1,000, and not of $500. It is not, therefore, the bond required py the act relating to this city, and can, therefore, find no sappor: atetutory security. Under thet act, these suroties are not liable to the action until after judgment recovered ageiost the constable, and leave to prosecute has been ed—and that statute contemplates a rezovery, had, to be in the namo of the sMayor, &c., of this for the fullamount of the penalty, whereupon a levy can be made, frome time to time, of the amounts which mzy successively be recovered by persons ag- grieved by the act or default of the constable. And, tucreover, if this bond does aot in substance conform to the sta:ute, as clearly it does not, then, regarding it ay a voluatary bond, vhere is vo warrant’ for brioging an ection therecn in the name of the party aggrieved. Al- sthoughit bas been repastedly beld that a suit may ve brovght on the undertaking required in the act releting to towns before reversed to, in the name of the party because such undertaking has the tute iteelf, \d operates for the benefit of the party aggrieved in any form, amount- ing ton substantial compliance with that statute. It appests to us remardaile, (if it be true, as we are in- formed,) that bonds like the present have come into ge- neral use in the city, unless there is some statute on the subject modi!ying the provisions of the act relating to the city of New York in this reapect. In the multi- tude of special statutes in force relating to this city, we might reanonatly have expected counsel who roly upon this bond, and eeek to uphold this judgment, to aid us by pointing us to the statute; if any can be found warzanting the tabing cf auch a bond, and prosecuting it witbout first obtaining judgment against the copstable and without leave ard in the name of this plaiotit, we are constrained to say, that wo have not er able to find euch « statute; and if we errin hold- ing the “act to reduce, &e.,”” to be still applicable to copatablen’ bonds in thin city, it will be for the want of such ais. and not from the want of diligent examius- tion, with the expectation of finding some law which has led fo the adoption of th« form of bond, when the bond prescribed by auch act bad been in ure for very m yeors, anddown to a recent period. Our conclusion, uncer there ercvmstences is, that the act in relation to the city of New York, so far sa relates to auch bonds, rec. 147, is still in force, and that this judgment cannot be vatained. ‘The Fire Commusioners, A meeting of the Fire Commissioners was held last evening at Frremen’s Hall; present all the members, Com, Erown in tbe chair.

Blanchard, the young clerk who robbed his em- Rovers Mr. Bieasey, ot $11,000, left for Havana last jurédey, on the sch:oner Montegut, carrying the mcney witn him. Tbe particalare of thisembezzle- mont, ro far as we have been able to gather, are as tollows:—Blancherd had been in the employ of Mr. Blessey about eighteen months. He came to thia city at that time from the North. He won the con- fidence of his employer by bis industry and at- tention to businees, aud was promoted to the rank of confidential clerk. A few days since Mr. Bles- sey had business in Mobile, and eft Blanchard in cbarge of the concern; and also leaving him chesks signed ip biank in order tnat he might draw at will on the Citizers’ and State banke. Blanchard ccmmerced at once co!lecting all the outstanding accounts of toe corcern, acd it ia said sold a con- siderable quantity of goods. He then filled one of the blank checks on the Citizens’ Bank for $2,500, which balanced the account. He then drew on the State Bank for $1,400, got drafta on Havana, pro- cured bie passport,and is now in saefty. The balence of the money he has in gold. Mr. Blessey is afraid that his Joss may prove atill heavier, as no money had been received for some time from apy of their country customers, and heretofore tre: bad been in regular receipt of large sume. It is thought Biancbard may have taken the letters and drafts from the Post Office aud appropriated ¢1em. Blanchard was born in Washington, we believe, is ery young mau, very respectable ia | appearance, and went often to the lake with a fast horee.— New Orleans Delta, July 23, DistressinG Arran IN New Haven.—Two Lives Lost i a Wsut.—Tqwo lives were lost on the premiges of the New Haven Gas Company last Saturday afternoon, under very diatreesing circumstances. It seems that the officers of the company had employed a@ man to clean out the wells belonging to them. The person employed to clean the wells, Mr. James Biskeslee, having finished two, procsea- ed to the third. He had descended but a few feet, when bis father, who was overlooking his work, observed him fall headlong into the water. He called for help, which summoned the hands at work in the factory, and one of them, named O gen Sheridan, im lately descended by means of a ladder placed in the well to the rescue of Siakeslee, who was lying upon the bottom. He had got bu’ sshort distance downward when he was observed to lore his hold of the ladder and fall headiong upon his companion below. Another hand in ths factory then descended, caugh: hold of Sneridan, ard attempted to raise him, but losing his breath, be became unconscious, and was about falling from the ladder when he was eeized by the foreman of the shop and raised to the surface, and resuscitated. The bocies of Biakeslee and Sheridan were taken out with the least poesible delay, and every exer- tion made to restore them to consciousnese—but in vaiz. The weil in question had been cl ed for the last six months. An experiment subsequently mace by the jury, by dropping a lighted candle into the well, proved it to bs so thor ug ly impreg- pated with “well-damo,” to extingutsh the light inan instant.— New Haven Journal, July 0.
