2 INTERESTING FROM MEX(CO. Wnsettied Condition of Affairs—Contest for the Prealdency- ‘The Mexican papers, up to the [+t of Septem ome to hand. Woe find in them much of interest, besides what ie extracted from the New Oriaius papers. The po- Wile} condition of the country is #4 unsettled ax ever, General Carrera, the temporary President of the Mexican wepablic, has not shown himself equal to the sivaation, ‘and is even now desirous of shifting the responsibility of ¢ fiom his own shoulders. The Trait d’ Union, writing of him, says — Uafortunately be has shown himself to be weak and dreehute, and instead of imposing vilence on the oppo- ty his firm and decided aspect, he bas encouraged the opposition by his hesitations and want of energy. ‘The Moaiior looks upon these lines in the Trait d’ Union a# an appeal to persecution and suppression of the liber- ty of the press, In denying the correctness of this infer- ‘ence the Trait says :— We meant to say that Mr. Carrera, by hositation im retaining power, by his oft’ manifested inten- tion of surrendering it, has encouraged the opposition aimyly vecause he has always appearet ill at ease in bis Presidential chair. And we have meant to say that, if, selemnly invested Gon, Carrera with the Presidenti 4) funchiens. ‘As you perceive, there is no lack af argument on ei! po side, and that trnth, as uanal, probably lies midwa: tween the two.

Who is it that does not share this opiniom with us} Besides, Mr. Carrera has shown himself weak and irresolute in, this sense, thot be has not sufficiently realized the fact ‘that be was a revolutionary Hresident, and that in revo- yutionary times people donot act by halves. Placed by ‘the popular movement at the head of a new adininistra- tion founded on the ruins of one that has beea over- ‘thrown, it was necessary for him to cloar the ground so as to sink the foundation of the edifice of which he had been made the architect; but he has joined cffeminacy and weekness in his work ‘of clearing away the ruins. In eur opinion Mr. Carrera should have petilessly dismissed all the active instrumeats of the government overthrown by the ular storm, ‘regardless of personal considera ancient connection or old friendship. He has been wanting in courage in that respect, and it is by that par- Hioularly that given strength to the opposition, | * # * © This question ofillegitimacytraised against Presi- den} Carrera is onlya pretext. His nomination would not Ihave been questioned it he had not with the best inten- tions and the best faith in the world left the field clear to the goodness of bis nature and the gentleness of his ebaracter. He has had the idea that having been him- velf Governor and Commandant General, he could not without cruelty roughly dismiss all his old colleagues, If he had acted in an opposite sense, would he not have oy his firm and decided aspect jnposed silence on the op- gonttlony We can easily understand thiv diseontent on part of the people, oppressed during two and a half years by tl sort of proconsuls denom nated Governors and Commandant Generals under the eenrervative administration. Their first prayer, their Srst desire was to be rid of those instruments of the des- potism which had sown among them deatly exile, rnin and desolation, * + Political animosity fell, at Vera Cruz, on the commandant Corona, who, not content with hav- img desolated the population by his blind obedience to the orders of the dictator, had favored the iligbt af the latter, had caused to be paid to him all his salaries, had pre- vented to him two uational steamers, and had permitted Aim to place all his money on board, to the great scan‘al ef the port. It also fell upon the Collector of Maritime Gustoms, Esteva, who had ruined commerce by his cul- ole administration; npon the Inspectors, the Fiscal, the fudge of Finance and Collector of Land Customs, who had rivalled each other in their efforts to heap injustice upon injustice. Santa Anna embarks; a pronuncianen o is im- Provised; the plan of Mexico is adhered to; the authority of General Carrer 1s recognized; General Corona, who has not been dismissed in time, pu Wf at the head of the movement; the Collector of Collector of Land Customs, the Inxpectors, the Fis Judge of Finance, all remain in cfiice, and unhesitatingly adhere to the revolution, Can that pronunciamento be deemed sincere? Directed by other authorities, it might eertainly have heen very populac; under the patronage ef these justly lated renégades, it is suspected, and when en the 28th of August Mr. La Llave enters into the port at the head of his forces, the people are anxious destroy everything that has been previously done, and the plan of Ayntle is adopted, pure and simple—tiat is that with the best disposition for concord, the quite naturally becomes hostile, But it will at Genera} Corona has been dismissed, and that dismissed. Yes, certainly, but they were dirmissed too late; the hesitation and the want of energy om the part of General Carrera had en- the opposition, to be the next President of Mexico’ is the sub- ject of much public and pri cussion. ‘There are various candidates for the eney, having each one @r more journals to support their pretensions, The Trait W Union supports the pretensions of Comonfort.

Let us hope the result will be fayorobke to liberty and order. The papers have much to say of a certain counter- revolution attempted by Haro y Tamariz, at San Luis, dof the attitude assumed by Vidaurri, leader of the revolutionary forces of Northern Mexico,’ Haro y Tama- riz, who was three times Minister under Santa Anna, the principal author of the evils which afflict the country, threw himself into the revolution when he perceived that he could no longer be Minister; but he joined the move- ment for his individual benefit, and’ had himself pro- claimed on the Ith, at San Luis, leader of the political regeneration of Mexico: Unfortunately for his prospects, the pronunciamirnto in Mexico took place on the same day. Haro looks to the army and clergy for support, but he meets with no real sympathy. He finds a formidable adversary in Vidaurri. He'evinces firmness, onoryy, f nkness and patriotism, He has de- clared war to the knife against the mercenary army of Santa Anna, and his conduct contrasts most favorably with ine dapracey of ae Perec Ber the sympathies of the people, and it is hoped he will frustrate fhe designs of Hare’ aod beat. btm soundly The plans of Vidaurri are not yet fully understood. He will certain- ly clip the wings of the army, and then will probaby lower the pretensions of the clergy. The latter consum. mation is devoutly to be wished, for unless the inflence and insolence of the priesthood in Mexico be checked no real or permanent reform can be effected. The Pestilence at Norfolk and Portsmouth OUR NORFOLK CORRESPONDENCE. NoRroLe, Sept. 171234 o'clock, Will the recital of deaths—the tale of sufferings never cease? Will Norfolk, poor disconsolate Norfolk, ever be visited by that sweet and ever welcome angel, Health, again? O, my poor home, how have you fallen? I passed through the streets yesterday, the Sabbath, on my daily route to see my sick friends, and the wailing cries from many houses as I past, smote on my heart, bringing a tear to my eye. Tdo not often weep. In one house entered, (‘twas the house of the deputy sheriff, George Barrum,) a nurse was there from Philadelphia, named Chas. Bren- neman, in a dying condition; his groans were heart-reud- ing; he had nursed the family of Mr. Barrum, and raised all save one, when he himseif, at the end of his self-sacri- fieiog work, was stricken by the fell destroyer, and now his reward for his devotion to the cause of humanity isa cold grave, away from the cherished objects of his affec- tion; he is among friends, however, in the family he is in —grateful friends, It appears that during the past few days, the mortality among children has increased, and in the same proportion the adults diminished.

OPINION OF THE COUNSEL TO THE CORPORATION. LAW DePARTMENT, Sept. 13, 1855. ” BRAT ved the resolution of (ue Board of rey vesting the opinion of the Counsel to the Corporation. “os to ‘hv legal powers of the Board of Health to eanct the ordinance” of Wth September, instant, and have the honor to 1eport— the ordinance, in effect, provides tbat all vessels from the port of baltimore or south of it, shall be subject to quarantine of thirty days, unless the certifiea'e of the Health Officer be obtained, showing that no sickness is on bard, or bas occurred thereon during the passage, or at the port of departure. ‘The Revised statutes specitied the cases in which yos- sels urriving at this port should be subject to quarantine, and among others inchided ail those from apy place in be ordinary passage from which they pass south of Cape Lenlopen, arriving setween the Sixt day of May and the lech day 6f October, under which vessels from the port of Faltimore or south of it were clearly embrased. If these sections of the Revised Statutes were now the law, svch vessels would be gubject to such quarantine and other regulations as the Health Officer, with the approval of the Mayor and the Commissioners of Health, should pre- c ‘The power im such cases was coniided to those officers, and not (o the Board of Health, But these sections of the Revised Statutes have been repealed by the law of the State passed 20th March, 1852 which prevides that they “shall not apply to vessels and perons engaged in the coasting trade be\ween the port ot New York and any of the capes of Virginia, but that all such vessela and persons may at all times’ eater the port of New York without being subject to quarantine, the same as if they did not pass to the south of Cape jenkpen,) except in case there may be sickness on boar in which case they shall be subject to existing laws.” The port of Paltim rly embraced within this statute. ‘The right to detain vessels at quarantine is vestel ex- clusively in the State, and the Board of Health possesses no powert in regard to it, except such as have been spe- cinlly delegated to it by the laws o? the State. The begis- ‘ature has defined the cases in which vessels shall be sab- ject to quarantine, and has not delegated to the Board of Health the power of either eireumseribing or extending them. Tam, therefore, of opinion :—~ 1, That the ordinance of the Board of Health is invalid, so far as it attempts to limit or extend the cases in which vessels shall be subject to quarantine—no such powers having been delegated to them by the laws of the State. 2, That it is invalid, so far as it conflicts with the act of 20th March, 1852. ’Tho ordinance subjects to quaran- tine all vessels from Baltimore, or south of it; whereas the act declares that no vessels or persons from places south of Cape Henlopen shall be detained at quarantine, “except there may be sickness on board.” 3. That the act of 1860, giving to the Board of Health power, in their discretien, to prohibit or regulate inter- nal intercourse by land or water, relates only to inter- course with such places as the Mayor, by his proclama- tion, shall have declared to be places “where there shall be reason to believe a pestilential or infectious teve: ac- tually existe,” 4. That the act of 1850, giving to the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty tull power and authority to make and pass all such by-laws and ordinances as they shall from time to time déeom necessary and proper for the preserva- tion of the public health, does not give to the Common Council the right to enact ordinances which shall be in opposition to a law of the State. . All the laws of quarantine, however, relate to ves- sels from the Capex of Virginia, in case they shull have “sickness on board,” and it ix the duty of the pilot in guch cares to anchor the veasel atthe quarantine ground for the examination of the Health Officer. Respectully submitted. ROBERT J. DILLON, Death of a Member of the Bar. There is no body of mon who more largely sympathise with one another on the loss of a-member of their pro- fevsion than the lawyers of New York, and hence they feel themselves repeatedly bound to meet together to give public expression of their feelings. The death of Mr. Henry 8. Dodge caused them to meet in the general term room of the Supreme Court, on Wednesday. Amongst those present were many memtbers of the Judi- ciary and a goodly array of the most prominent prac- titioners at the bar. On motion, the Hon, Judge Mitchell, (P. J.,) was no- minated President, and the Hon. Judge Roosevelt, of the Supreme Court, and Hon. Judge Bosworth, of the Supo- rior Court, were elected Vico Presidents. Messrs. Henry 4 Cramm and John Sherwood, were appointed Secreta- ries, On motion of Mr. Win. M. Fvarts, seconded by Mr. C. Van Santyoord, the following resolutions were passed:— volved, That the members of the New York bar have learned with deep sensinility the alllictive intelligence of the death of Henry 8. Dodge, and that they mourn his loss ax of one having every just claim to their affection and respect. Resclved, That by the natural vigor of his intellect, the thorough discipline of his understanding, his exten- sive and various leaping. bis habits of patient and comprehensive investigation, his manifold acquivements and wide experience, he was admirably fitted for the noblest labors and the highest honors of our profession, while his generous fidelity to every duty, the candor of his nature, the rectitude of hts purposes; and the purity of his cbaracter and conduct, made him, in the per- formance of thoxe labors and the attainment of those honors, a wise counsellor, a strenuous and intrepid adv. cate, a grace and ornament to his profession, a pub) 2 fit to the community, his sudden death in the prime of his professional life, in the fulness of health, in the full ma- turity of his powers, enhances the measure of his loss to the profession and the public, and heightens the poignancy of our grief. Resolved, That we sincerely sympathize with his {a- mily in their sorrowful bereavement, and that a copy of these resolutions be transmitted to them, and be publish- ed in the papers of the city. Mr. Evarts and Mr. Van & seconding the resolutions, 5] logy of the deceased, Mr. D. D. Firw said that in the death of Mr. Dodge they had lost a companion and a friend—one who was jour- ney ing the same rozd with them has fallen by the way side, and they should seehim no more. Though reserved in his mien, he was genial in bis disposition, and was a general favorite with his brethren. He was youn he was a laborious student, and was one who looked not pon ike law as a trade, but as a profession whieh 1 quired {he most laborious’ study and the highest honor to fulfil. He was one of the most active members of the Law Institute, and a large share of his talents was de- voted to the augmentation of the library. He wasa scholar, sud such a man they could ill afford to lose; but Le was taken by the Great Arbiter of life and death. and they should eberish his memory for his virtues. Mr. Di osway spoke in foeling terns, and concluded by saying, in the langnage of the poet— * His years but young, but his experience old; His head unmellowed, but his judgment ripe; And in » word (for far behind his worth he praises that I now bestow) mplete, in feature and in mind, 1 good grace to grace a gentleman.’ Mr. Jas. K. Woitixe rose to offer an addittonal resolu. tion, before stating which he would usk the indulgence of the Provident of the meeting to say a few words respect sTVOORD, in moving and in eloquent terms of eu ing his personal knowledge of Mr. Dodge: and he would net occupy the meeting long, because he was oppressed with sensations which would prevent bin. (Mfr. W. was here moved to tears.) He begged the meeting to pardon his emotion; his first acquaintance with Mr. Dodge was in 1838; he studied in is, (Mr. Whiting’s) office; that was his first aequaint Mr. Dodge was born in New York, and at the age of M4 entered Columbia College, fully prepared for the race set before him. Mr. Whiting then gave a brief history of the career of the deceased, and spoke in very eloquent terms of his qualities and his talents .or the legal profession, which he selected, not from necessity —becanse his means were ample—but from choice, the beatitudes of the law being most like Hii who ever seeks for truth. Mr. Whiting concluded by saying that the resolution he would propose was that=~ ‘The dar will, with one accord. attend the funeral of Mr, Dodge, from Grace Church, this day at four o'clock, ‘The revolutions wae then ‘all put aud unanimously adopted, and the mecting separated, ance with him, Theatres and Exhibitions.

A meeting of the Board of Education was held last (Wednesday) evening, at ihe hall in Grand street, when there was a very full attendance of members—Mr. William B. Neilson, President, in the chair. ‘The minutes of the last meeting were read and ap- proved. The minutes of the Executive Committee of the Normal School were also read, from which it appeared that they bad audited bills since the last meeting, amounting to $1,437 27; they had also made a grant of books and chemical apparatus to the school. A com- munication waa then reccived from the school officers of the Eleventh ward, asking for an appropriation of $19,000 to purchase new furniture for schoothouses Nos 15 und 36. The appropriation was made. Communications were also received from the school officers of the Fifteenth ward, asking for an appropriation for heating and vent new school house in Twelfth street, the sum wan’ ing $2,100. Referred to tne appropriate commitee. A communication was also re- etived from the schoo} officers of the Twentietn ward, nominating Thomas M. Vartridge as commissioner, and Welcome RK, Beebe as trustee, to fill vacancies in the Board of School Officers of that ward. RROLWTIONS. tod resolation to adjourn over to the 26th instant was lost.

Hartmann, Clara M. Edmonds and Henrietta Dutch, graduates of ‘the institation, be appointed teachers in the female normal school, at « sa- ‘ary each of $150 per annum, and that the aa ary of Joho Jeierson, of colored normal sehcel, ‘be $150 per annum. Adopted.’ The Finance Committee presented a statement of the tnances of the board, The amount of money raised by the Board of Supervisors for school purposes, in 1855. has been $956,010, of which amount $125,000’ must be deducted, being the sum ad asa loan by the Com- mon Council, to meet in part the deficiency of 1854. The board also reserved $92,845 O1, to meet the balance of appropriations of 184,'to complete the buildings and other work under contract at the close of last year, A further sum of $621,017 45 was also set apart to meet the current expenses of the system, including the corporate schools, The reservations made amount to $838,862 46, seaving a balance of $117,147 54 to be applied to the gene ral purposes of the board, other than the current ex- penses of the schools, ‘he appropriations made on ac- count of the funds not reserved amount to $161,940 94 showing an excess ofappropriations over the amount at the command of the board of $44,793 40—a conseque deficiency of that sum, The total unexpenied balance of school moneys for 1853 on hand in 1854, was $108,219 84. It is, therefore, apparent that the deficiency at ‘the end of the year must be very large, inasmuch ay the ex- penses of the system for four months must be met; or, in other words, one-ninth of the funds remain to defray one- third of the expenses, It is estimated that at the end of the present year, unless the Common Council shall in the meantime make the necessary appropriation, there wil! be a deficiency in the funds of the Board 10 meet the ex- penses of the syxtem as follows:—on appropriations al- ready made, $37,901,15; on necessary expeoses, $83,500; on appropriations recommended by committee, but’ not acted on by the Board, $37,498,09. Ordered printed The Finance Committce then presented a requisition, which was adopted, on the Comptroller, for $40,000 on the “7th September, and $60,000 on 10th October.’ They also presented requisitions on the board for $33,000 to pay salaries of teachers, $6,800 for the current expense- of the various schools, and $2,521 66 for the incidental expenses of the board, which were also approved of. ‘the report of the Normal School Committee which caused the adjournment of the board to appropriate $2,000 for teacher’s salaries, was called up and unani mously adopted. The school officers of the Ba RE ple ward reported the organization of a new school, No. 49, in Thirty seventh street, near the Second avenue, with five teachers for the male department, with’ salaries oi $2,100; five female teachers salaries of $1,375, and five feachers in the primary department, with salaries 0: $60, anda janitor at $200 per annum. The school opened with’ 201 male scholars, 142 females, and 552 pupils in the primary department. Total 895. The Finance Committee presented a report mend ing the payment of outstanding bills owing Cor repair and expenses, A lengthy discussion sprung up as to the law relating to such expenses, the work not having been done by contract, and_ some ‘of the bills exceeding $250. The item of gift books for schools was the subject of muc! Jiepute, and on the division several members voted nay because of the intention to allow the payment of the vill of $421 for gift books, The motion prevailed, 17 ayes, 12 nays majority 5, A motion to reconsider’ all that re- ferred to the gift book biil was then adopted. ‘The bills were subsequently ordered paid. The Board transacted some other business of less public interest, and then adjourned. Anniversary of the French Republic. We have received in French « call for a grand celebra. tion on Saturday evening next, of the anniversary of the proclamation of the French republic. The following is a translation :— FRENCH REPUBLIC SEPT. 21, 1792. Darkness lay upon the face of the earth, and ignorant humanity was groaning for ages past in misery ani bondage. ‘Ihe throne and the altar were united, and seme individuals calling themselves emperors, kings, pre- ates and nobles, were mercilessly treading upon thei: ellow-men, under the degrading name of subjects, and were fearfully persecuting all those who dared to pro: claim or protest. In the meantime some choice spivits some genii, armed with devotion and with the torch o reason and of science, dissipated the darkness by degress, and the oppresseé people dared to think of breaking the yoke by means of revolution. America gave the exxmple, and established the republic at the same time it estab lished its independence. We have all celebrated the memory of it with enthusiasm; and soon after France, which bad already aided with her blood and with her treasure her transatlantic friends, proclaime! inher turn the sacred rights of map, and on the 2Ist of September, 1792, also established the republic. Let us never forget that date, and let us glorify it in all time! The republic! It is the true government; it is the thing of the people, by which all men and all parties, without distinction of rank or fortune, may live happy under the empire oflaw. It isthe republic alone wh can realize these latter words of human perfectability— iberty, equality, fr jernity.” ‘The French republic, it is true, has disappeared—it could not be otherwise. Its enemies re-united with all their strength, and with all prejudices, have incessantly undermined and attacked it. ‘Nevertheless, if scribed, it was already powerful enough to overcome them. ’But in this strife, unequal in numbers—a strife of one against a hundred—the heroes of it must necessa- rily disappoar at length, and their works be momentarily eclipred, until the time when from their ashes, seatt over the whole globe, should spring up a new race, mo numerous, and consequently more durable. Th new exists. They have only to will it, and the repul will be everywhere. But for that purpose they must understand each other and must put aside the divisions which have hitherto unfortunately swallowed up such a magnificent attempt. jet misfortune at least teach us; and let the same divi- sions which our enemies have hitherto profited by, be at Jength turned against themselves. ‘the French Republic was not the canse and the work of France alone: but the French people were the best dix posed, and the first to receive it, and to proclaim it high In Europe, Allmen of heart concurred in it with thei: vows, their arms, their property and their wisdom. Paris was ita centre, and from thence it was to radiated over the whole world. Since, therefore, it is the cause of all, let it be celebrated by all. ‘This is not only sympathy but it is a duty. Can we then do less than show our sympathy towards those millions of brethren who have shed their last blood, and confronted all danger: for the holy cause of humanity, in glorifying the day on which the sacred formula of their convictions was at length proclaimed? Would we not be ungratefal—Americans as well as Europeans—if we could not spare one moment to the commemoration of the work established by ou valiant fathers, and thanks to which we still breathe here in freedomy ‘The 21st of September, 1792, will therefore be celebrat- ed anew in America, as the anniversary of the great nro- clamation of human government. For this purpose, ihe men of all nations are invited to assemble on Saturday next, September 22, 1855, at 7 o'clock P. M. precisely, in Washington Hall, Elizabeth street, near Grand, Now York. A popular banquet, at a popular price, will there ve organized, which, like the Cena of the ancients, will be a sign of union and of solidarity among all na ions in the good cause—the universal repablic. ———_$_<— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. Wepnespay, Sept. 19—6 P. M. The stock market appears to be in rather a buoy- ant state. The movement is decidedly upward, although there are several stocks on the list which do not participate in the inflation. At the first board to-day Ilinois Central Bonds advanced 1 per cent; Brunswick Land Company, }; Erie Railroad, 1; Galena and Chicago, 1}. Pennsylvania Cual Company declined 1 per cent; Harlem, j; Cleveland and Toledo, j. Erie is the card, and the sales are daily to an unprecedented amount. This morning more thin six thousand shares gere sold, a good portion of which was for cash. Galena and Chi- cago, and Chicago and Rock Island were in de- mond today. These two roads are probably, with- out exception, the most promising railroad stocks in the Western States, and we doubt if there is anything enst of the State of Illinois that can ap- proach them in actual productiveness on capital. Michigan Southern is firm at our quotations, and very little stock offering. Itis not generally known that the monthly receipts of this road do not include the earnings of what is called the Goshen Branch, and that its income is on a capital of only about nine millions of dollors, instead of twelve. Cleveland and Toledo is a poor, sick, weak concern, and is only kept alive by the most powerful stimulanta, Read- ing bas not varied much for some days past. It is pretty firm at our quotations. Among railroad bonds the Illinois Central stands the most pro- minent. There were large sales to-day at the ad- vonce, and at the close the tendency was up- ward. Other railroad bonds and State stocks were | neglected, ond remain without chenge in prices, N’4W YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1855, Atthe second board an active business was trans- acted. Illinois Central Bonds advanced 4 per cent; Chicago-and Rock Island Railroad, 1; Galena and Chicago, 1; Hudson Railroad, $; Erie Railroad, }. Harlem declined j per cent. The small lots in which purchases of Chicago and Rock Island are made is evidence that it is going into the hands of the right kind of people for permanent investment. It is our firm belief that the stock will sell above current rates in less than thirty days after the October di- vidend. The earnings of this road in the first week in September this year were $32,000, against $18,000 for the same week last year. This is in excess of the estimate for the month. Galena and Chicago was in demand at the close, at 120 per cent, and no stock offering. The steamship Atlantic, from this port for Liver- pool to-day, carried out only $11,000 in specie, and that was in silver. Mr. Albert H. Nicolay’s regular semi-weekly auc- tion sale of stocks and bonds, will take place to-mor- row (Thursday) at 124 o'clock, at the Merchants’ Ex- change.

The Knickerbocker Life Insurance Company has declared a dividend of seven per cent. The Hannibal and St. Joxeph line of road pro- ected across the State of Missouri, from the Missis- sippi River at Haunibal, where it will connect with the great network of Illinois roads to the Missouri at St. Joseph, has been taken hold of by a party of Boston capitalists, consisting of R. B. Forbes, John M. Forbes, John E. Thayer, H. H. Hunnewell and Thomas B. Curtis. The work has a government grant of 600,000 acres selected lands, and a stock subscription of $1,500,000. The local and other in- dividual subscriptions to the stock are stated at $1,600,000. Length of the road 200 niles. Estimated cost not to exceed $6,000,000. The loans of the concern, about one half the cost, will be based upon its lands, which, at $5 the acre, would reimburse the bonds, or at $8 an acre, leave $1,100,000 surplus, or at $10 an acre, leave a surplus of $3,100,000. The following letter from Henry L. Stevenson, Esq., of Philadelphia, relative to the New Granada Canal and Steam Navigation Company, is interest- ing and important at this moment. It will be seen that he anticipates the most satisfactory results as the enterprise progresses. It must be particularly gratifying to those gentlemen who have devoted their energies to this great work, to find that those best acquainted by observation and association, are among the first to predict its entire success. The first steamship of the line I.ft this port for Cartha- gena afew weeks since, and the announcement of her arrival at that port must soon reach us.
