Ayola, a Peruvian gentleman. Mr. Brown and Mr. Ayula have arrived in this city. From the statement of Captain Badger we learn that about two hours before the ship sank, which was at 8 o'clock on the evening of Saturday, 12th inst.,a schooner ran down under her stern, but could render no assistance from want of boats.

Leonard Flasker, a young German, indicted for the murder of Thomas Smith, in Worth street, on the 4th of July, by stabbing him with a knife, pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the fourth de- gree yesterday, in the General Sessions, and was sent to the State prison for two years. Judge Russell said that a clear case of homicide had been made out. Michael Wogan, Jr., convicted of arson in the fourth degree, and recommended strongly to mercy by the jury, will be sen tenced next Saturday. Patrick Daffy, jointly in- dicted with Henry Drake for the murder of the negro Francis Salters, was arrested by officer T. R. Houston, and brought into court. The Assist- ant District Attorney asked for his commitment without bail, which was granted, the City Judge remarking that his counsel could subsequently bring the matter before him or another Judge on a writ of habeas corpus. Officer Houston also arrested Drake on Thursday. The sales of cotton were confined to about 100 a 250 bales at unchanged prises. The stook in this market has ow become so much reduced that the daily sales are not likely to exceed a few bundred bales until there is tome augmentation in scpplics from the new crop, which this year is upusually backward. Hence the small transactions making from day to day ailurd no very clear idea cf ihe real state of the market.

By the Indian and Antelope we have four days later news from Europe. The Antelope left Liver- ‘pool on the Sth instant, and arrived at St. John’s, N. F., yesterday. The Indian left Liverpool tor | Quebec on the 9th ; her advices are, therefore, one day later than these brought by tne Antelope. The mews by those arrivals, though interesting, is not of special importance. No further news from India had been received, though later advices were daily expected. Additional troops were under orders for that country. The English underwriters had settled all claims growing out of the loss of the Atlantic cable. The Spanish government have suspended preparations for the expedition against Mexico, and | the difficulty will be settled by arbitration. A religious | riot, arising from street preaching, had occurred at ‘Belfast, Ireland, during which the mob was fired upon by the constabulary. Nothing additional from China, It is said that if Lord Elgin fail to get satis- faction from the Chinese, war will be declared simul- faneously by France and (reat Britain against that government. The bullion in the Bank of France had increased 1,400,000 dar'ng the month. We have advices from Mexico to 4th of Septem- ber. Our Vera Cruz correspondent, writing on that day, states that all idea of a war with Spain had died away amongst the people, but that the govern- ment officers were still strengthening the fortifica- | tions of the city. The La Sere, Soule, and Silo» nego- tiations in Mexico City attracted a good deal of attention, but the people were exceedingly jealous on the point of any alienation of the national terri. tory. Highway robberies and assassinations were very rife. The vomito was committing great ravages amongst the people in and around Vera Craz. Nicolas Liete, captain of the band of Mexi- cans who murdered the Spaniards at Cuernavaca, had been arrested and sent into Mexico City. He offered the sam of five thousand dollars to any per; on who would take his place, By the Black Warrior we have dates from Havana Yo the L5th{inst. The late panic in commercial circles hhas subsided, but business is still dull. Stock of sugar about 200,000 voxes, ond holders refuse to sell | at the reduced prices.

The murderers of the officers and crew of the brig Albion, on the 28th August, previously reported, were sent home to Portland on the 14th inst., by the American brig R. H. Knight, Captain Liscomb. The Warrtor brings $125,000 in specie. We have additional news from Honduras, dated at Belize on 16th of August. Our correspondent states | that the mahogany cutting season was ended, and | that the crop would yield only five millions of su perficial feet, instead of Chirteen millions a8 calculat- edon. The logwood yield was short also, and the | ‘weather very wet, with a dull trade. A ball at | Government House had enlivened the people. Some of General Walker's men were at Belize in a wretch: | ed condition, and others of them had already died. ‘Threats were made by some of the survivors that if | they ever met with Walker they would shoot him. | Smallpox was rife in the country. The engineers | of the Interoceanic Railroad were very sanguine of fp splendid success. The Democratic Convention at 8t Paul, Minne Bota, nominated on the 17th inst. H. H. Sibley for Governor, and W. Holcomb for Lieutenant Gov. | ernor. From the report of the City Inspector we learn that there were 609 deaths in the city during the past week, a decrease of 62 as compared with the Mortality of the preceding week. The report does not present any particularly striking feature, except in the increased number of deaths from violent causes, abd the decrease in the general mortality of | the week, particularly in cholera infantum and con- wumption. Of the total number of deaths, 444 were of children of ten years of age and under.

We publish today some further interesting particulars regarding the loss of the Central America, The magnitude of this disaster natu. rally engrosses for the moment the attention and sympathy of the community, and in the absence of complete information, even speculation ac- | quires the importance of facts. Meagre as are the details that have reached us, there are some points connected with this catas- trophe which serve to break the force of the shock occasioned by it. Almost the first feeling which suggests itself to the public mind after the receipt of such news, is the hope that the nagional honor bas been worthily sustained by the men upon whom the responsibility devolved in such a trying emergency. The circumstances attendant upon the logs of the Arctic unfortunately furnish us with but too much reason to apprehend a fail- ure of the qualities called for upon such occa- tions, It does not suffice to remove this fear that the conduct of such men as Captain Watkins, of the San Francisco, has over and over the courage and presence of mind of our American sailors. To a public so sensitive on these points as our own, one such disgraceful example as that lingering fear, That anxiety was increased in the present instance by the fact that the Central America was commanded by one of the best known and most distinguished officers of our navy. From the knowledge that we possessed of Lieutenant Herndon, we ourselves never enter- tained a doubt that his conduct throughout this terrible disaster had been all that could be ex- pected from a man of his tried nerve and strict habits of discipline? The information which has since reached us, that one of his first acts was | to place in safety all the women and children on board the veseel, only confirmed the anticipations that we had formed of his conduct. To the public generally this view is a great relief, for it would | have been too much, in addition to the loas of tuck @ number of precious lives, and such # large | amount of treasure, to have to deplore that of | our good name. But not only is the conduct of the brave Hern- don to be applamded for the coolness and self- posession which he displayed on thie occa- | sion, but that of the crew and parsengers of this ship, whose lives were forfeited also, calls for our admiration. The dis | graceful selfishness and poltroonery of the crew of the Arctic are still fresh in our memory ; | and it is eonsolatory to find that their conduct found no imitator but one amongst the men under Lieut. Herndon’s command. The fact is at once evidence of the efficieacy of the disci- pline kept up on board the Central America, and of the scund and correct feeling of the crew; for even the habit of obedience would hardly have sufficed to keep them in restraint, but for the moral influence of their officers. But whilst we admire and applaud the self-restraint of the | hande of the vessel, let us not forget to pay a tribute to the generous forbearance and disin- terestedness of the passengers) The great ma- jority of these, as we bave reason to believe, were freeh from the mines of California—men Wat little acomstomed to the exercise of self- control, and in the habit of gratifying their pas- sions and inclinations without reference to con- ventional proprieties. To the immortal honor of these rough, but true-hearted men, they waived in favor of the helpless female passengers of the vessel their chances of escape; and there is reason to believe that no single act of violence or selfishness on their part tarnished the merit of this noble example of self devotedness. Much has been said of the brilliant conduct of the troops on board the British ship Birkenhead on a similar memorable occasion; but we do not think that it surpasses in merit the generous ab. etention of the passengers of the Central Ameri- ca. The former acted under the influence of military discipline and example, which admit of no eelfiehness or shrinking in the fece of danger. The latter were controlled solely by their sense of bumanity and their regard for the claims of the weaker sex. We are therefore justified in ac- cording to our gallant countrymen who lost their lives by their disinterestedness, a much higher meed of Praise, The effect of such examples on the officers and Crews of our passenger vessels cannot be too The following is o classification of the diseases | highly estimated. The emulation which they in- graceful fallures of duty as those which led to the loss of 6o many of the passengers of the Arctic, ‘The loss of this eplendid veseel will, we trust, serve to enforce the necessity of the immediate adoption in all passenger vessels of the system of water-tight compartments, But as it is difi- cult to get shipowners and ship builders to intro- duce any improvement which takes them out of their usual routine calculations, Congress should next session passa law compelling them to re- model all old vessels and construct new ones on this plan, Were this done, there is no doubt that although the number of shipwrecks might not be leseened, the loas of life would be greatly di- minished. The lessons that we are receiving are terrible ones—let us not prove ourselves fools by isregarding them. Fillbustering Movements—Is Gen. Houston Again in the Ficid? We published yesterday from Washington some very interesting intelligace concerning the movements of the filibusters, including the Southern enterprise of Gen. Walker, redivivus: for the establishment of a proslavery Anglo- Saxon empire in Central America, “based upen military principles,” and the reported scheme of the Texas filibusters, with Gen. Houston reported at the head of them, for the liberation—@ la Texas—of another slice of Mexico. It appears that in regard to the Walker move- ment, the Ministers at Washington from the Central American States have taken the alarm, and “have addressed a letter to the President, requesting the interposition of our government to stop the departure of military expeditious which, they have reason to believe, are about being formed to invade their portion of the con- tinent.”” It further appears that, in consideration of this appeal, instructions will immediately be given to the proper officers throughout the United States—Marsbals, District Attorneys, Col- Jectors, commanding army and naval officers on the various frontier stations—to stop such expeditions as these complained of, and to prosecute ell persons engaged in them—a course on the part of the administration which every friend of law and order must approve. It is very evident that the President understands our neutrality laws, and the important fact that they involve some obligations of good faith on our part which cannot be disregarded. We incline to the belief, however, that there is vo serious cause for this alarm on the part of the Ministersof the Central American States, in refe- rence to the present Nicaraguan agitation of Walker in our Southern States. There may be some active sympathy for him among the more zealous of the military propagandists of South- ern institutions; he may even succeed in collecting some money and some volunteers among those ultra Southern sympathizers; but his prestige and his resources as a great military expounder of the blessings of AngloSexon “squatter sovereignty” are gone. We apprebend that he can neither raise the men nor the means, nor the transporta- tion required to make another successful military landing in Nicaragua, under his banner as the head of the movement. We also suspect that the present Southern agitation of another descent of Walker upon the San Juan will, in the sequel amount to no more than Kosenth’s “material and financial aid” for the liberation of ‘‘down-trodden Hungary.” The Sonora escapade, and the later and more disastrous Nicaraguan adventure of Walker, have pretty well, we fear, established his incom- petency as a filibustering leader; and it will be a very long while, we dare say, before he is again at the head of a thousand fighting American volunteers on the plain of Granada. The star of the “little gray- eyed man” has crossed its meridian, and his pres- tige and his glory have been reduced toa very limited sphere. The Ministers from the Central American States “near the government at Wash- ington” have, then, very little cauee of alarm concerning Walker; but still, as “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bash,” they have per- haps acted very judiciously in asking the inter- position of Mr. Buchanan to keep this “little gray-eyed man” at home with his armies aud his armaments, The report that Gen. Sam Houston is connect- ed with a Texas filibustering movement for the liberation of another slice of Mexico is rather vague. We can’t believe it; but there may be something in it. Texas—San Jacinto—President | of the republic—annexation—first Senator from the new State to Washington—candidate for the | Presidency before several of the Baltimore De- mocratic Conventions, no go—Know Nothing as piraut, no go—and, finally, as the terribly de- feated Know Nothing candidate for Governor of Texas, General Houston has used up his Texas capital to the last political farthiag. But it is too late inthe day forhim to do up another ‘Texas, and take a fresh start from another San Jacinto. A game of such extraordinary luck as that can never occur more than once to the same man, though he should live to the age of the Wandering Jew. In the Texas movement for independence against the government of Mexico, Gen. Houston bad a friend at court that could do something— no less a personage than Gen. Jackson; and the history of Samuel Swartwout’s tremendous Cus tom House deficiencies, if faithfully told, will show that, as much as anything else, it was the friendebip and sympathy of Old Hickory and his “material and financial aid,’ that achieved the independence of Texas. That operation, howev- er, cannot be done over again by Gen. Houston, He has had his day; he has culminated; he is going down; “he is passing away like a long summer's day; and his true course now is grace- fully to retire to private life and the cultivation of cabbages, leaving the business of filibustering to those enterprising youngsters who have noth- ing to lose, and who can fiad no better employ~ ment, and dismissing all dreams of the White House as vain and foolish delusions. Leaving Gen. Houston cut of the question, it is a fact that we cannot get up new States nor new Territories fast enough for the accommoda- tion of our broken down politicians of the old States. California has bad a terrible time with them; Minnesota swarms with them; Kansas is overrun with them, and they have been “bleed- ing” Kaneas for the last three years. In fact all the new States and Territories are overrun or overdone with worn out or new beginning poli- ticians from the old States. The overtlowings of these adventurers, during our last two or three administrations, have kept Mexico, Cuba, and Central America in a continual ferment, Bat what have they accomplished? Nothing but ra- pine, fire and elaughter, includiog the destruction of their deluded followers in Sonora, Cuba and Nicaragaa. With these facts before him, we can ecardtiy believe that Gen, Tuuston oan be guilty of the folly of attempting, as @ filibuster, to re- tb the ground which he has lost as a poli- jan, Fovrrerrsm.—The recent seizure of obscene lite- rature in Frankfort street continues to attract the attention of the journals. It is an open question whether or not the movement of the -police on this occasion was of any particular benefit to public morals, except that it went to show a bad state of things in our social economy. Indeed, if the communication which we give elsewhere may be depended upon, the police made themselves circulators of a large quantity of filthy trash, of the existence of which the metropolitan public were hitherto unaware. The unlucky people in the country who were fond of this sort of litera- ture are really the only sufferers, and the natural ¢ffect of the siezure will be to whet their bad ap- petites, instead of destroying them. It appears that the transactions of the Southern customers of Akarman have not been made public, so that af- ter all they may be as bad on the south side of Maeon and Dixon’s line as on the north. We do not think, however, that even the laxity of morals at New Orleans or Mobile is eo great as at Cleveland or Buffalo, notwithstanding al) the abolition tirades about the profligacy engen- dered by the system of slavery. Wedo not be- lieve that Southerners occupying respectable po- sitions in society would shamelessly publish a contract like the following, the parties to which reside st Skeneateles, in this State:— Bize ie meee wine ian ee widoe than that they are wary, married; that they live for henoeforward and forever, providing the affinity contiaues toexist And if mot—if that adinity which the God of Na- ture designed to waite man and woman, diminishes or ceases to hold themselves perfectly free and at liberty ty separate, if they choose to do eo: that they throw aside the legal contract altogether, knowing it to be a curse mad @ nuisaoce— believing it to be the means borning out and destroying dhe very love and ailinity should unite all mankind !n the eopjugal relatioha, im testimony of which we subscribe our names. GEORGE W. LEWIS. HARRIET WHEELER LEWIS. We could hardly believe this to be a veritable document were it not for the fact that these people are not the first who have entered into the same agreement. It is, as we have said before, the effects of the filthy doctrines of Fourier, which were introduced here by Brisbane, and promul- gated to the people, through the press, by Rip- ley, Dana, and their compeera. For years they labored in their phalavxes, and in the 7’ribune, to disorganize society by doing away with the mar- riage tic, and the poison which they infused into the American mind has begun to appear after their system has been acknowledged to be a ri- dicalous failure. What they attempted to do ia organized communities is now accomplished by individuals. Sach shamelessness as is expressed in the agreement above quoted would haveraised a storm of popular indignation before the advent of Fanny Wright in this country. She attempted to prove that the marriage relation was all wrong; the Fourierites went a step beyond, and advocated promiscuous intercourse between the sexes; and the epiritualists and free lovers took up the doctrine of “affiuities”—that is, you may take an affinity to your neighbor's wife, and if the affinity is mutual, it is right that you should runaway with her, and live with her while the affinity lasts, when you may both be at liberty to get another affinity. This doctrine has been preached all through the Weet, and the records of the courts and insane asylums show its effects. The Tribune was at different times the organ of all these new light philosophers, and though its conductors have attempted to shirk the responsi- bility of their work, the public will hold them strictly to account for it. Tux New York Herap tw rae Sovru.—We publish in another place an accusation against the compositors in the office of the Henan, by a Mississippi newspaper, on the authority of a printer named Fulton, who claimed to have served in Walker’s army, aad who epplied to our compositors for work and assistance. We give also the answer of the Heratp compositors, which eeems to be entirely conclusive. The printers regulate these matters according to the rules of the craft, and the proprietor never inter- feres in the details of the mechanical department of the office—the number of persons therein em- ployed equalling, without doubt, the adult popu- lation of the town wherein our Mississippi cotemporary prints his paper. We know, how- ever, that the Herat office is continually ran down with beggars of all sorts—from philanthro- pists who wish to buy niggers or build churches, to drunken vagabonds who receive thankfully the very smallest favors; and although the printers have frequent calls upon their slender purses for the support of worthy resident crafts- mep, who have broken down under the severe and lengthened toil peculiar to the trade, yet we believe we can eafely assert that no applicant, whether able to work or not, was ever sent away empty handed. Our compositors give several instances of their liberality in their answer, to which the attention of all interested is called. There is another point in the statement of the Mississippi journal which has been urged in various ways, and upon which we wish to set our Southern readers right, by repeating the state- ment we have made on several previous occa- sions, It is said that the Henan derives a considerable portion of its income from the South. Now, the Heravp is the New York Henao. It derives its principal support from the residents of this island. The Herato's progress has corresponded with the progress of the city: As this great metropolis has steadily risen to its proud position as the second commercial city of the world, as its wealth and its population have increased in a degree unparalleled ia history, so has the Henay grown with the growth of the city, and strengthened with its strength. If we go out of New York, we find that the littleState of Connecticut gives us a greater number of subscri- bers than the whole South. We have, as a matter of principle, battled during twenty years for the constitutional rights of the South, in opposition to the fanaticiam of the North, and we have been paid for our labor with personal abuse of the vilest nature. That is all we have received from the South, and if we lose such “support” we shall not feel particularly grieved.
