He stated that two of the native languages had been reduced to writing, books were pristed in them and from 500 to 600 youths were being instructed through their means The people were in general simple minded, confiding and affectionate. Messrs. Jack, Quick and Hoidridge next addressed the meeting, and after a lengthened prayer for the euccess of the missionaries, the cou- gregation separated. The Lemon slave case was resumed in the Sa. preme Court yesterday morning, when Mr. Blunt submitted his statement and points of argument in behalf of the plaintiffs, namely—1. Slavery is con- trary to natural right, and is not regarded with fa- vor in any system of jurisprudence. 2. The law of slavery islocal, and does not operate beyond the State where it is established. 3. The provision of the ‘ederal constitution relating to fugitive slaves recognises this principle of universal jurieprudence, and imposes on the free States an obligation which is limited to fugitive slaves. 4. The persons here claimed as slaves are free by the express enactment of the Legislature of New York. 5. They cannot be held by virtue of any provision of the federal con- stitution. 6. They are not heldas slaves under any rmplied covenants between the States or by any rule of comity. 7. They cannot be restrained of their liv berty, whatever may have been their state in Vir givia. Some bills were received and referred in the Board of Supervisors last evening, among which was that of Sheriff Willett, tor $2,763 96, for the quarter from July to October. The Common Council commenced its October sessions last evening. In the Board of Aldermen a communication was received from Stephen H. Branch, asking the Corporation to ascertain of the Legistature the reason for the Record Commissioners asking and obtaining an extra appropriation of 150,000. The original appropriation was $550,000. The document was ordered to be printed. The Cen- tral Park Commiss oners sent in a communication asking for the creation of a funded stock, in order to enable them to procure funds to go on wth the proposed improvements in the park. Some | seven hundred men are row employed on the work. In the Board of Coun: @ contract for cleaning the streets was referred to a special commitiee. | The passage of an ordinance reorganizing the City | Inspector's Department, in accordance with the new charter, was under discussion, when a motion to ad- | Journ prevailed. The October term of the General Sessions began | yesterday. A quorum of Grand Jurors could not be | obtsined, and those answering to their names were | discharged till eleven o’ciock this morning. Fighty- | five jurors, grand and petit included, were each fined | $25 for non attendance. The Recorder made a long | speech in passing sentence upon Luke Kerrigan, | convicted in August of receiving stolen goods. In consequence of the prisoner's physical condition | the lowest penalty was inflicted—two years in the | State prison. A convention, said to be composed of delegates Stream, when they were picked up by a British | from workingmen’s societies, assembled last night brig bound to Ireland, and subsequently transferred at No. 178 Bowery, and adopted a series of resolu. to the Bremen bark Laura, bound to New York. tions strongly opposing State prison convict labor, Full particulars of their sufferings at sea, and their and endorsing the entire democratic State ticket, rescue, are given in te-day’s paper. The steamship Anglo Saxon has arrived at Que- bec with Liverpool dates to the 23d ult., four days later than the advices received by the Arabia at this port. The general news by this arrival is unimport- aut. The steamships Vanderbilt and Atlantic, which left New York on the 12th ult, had arrived out—the former at Southampton early on the morn- ing of the 22d, and the latter on the evening of the same day. The London mcney market was un- changed. Consuls are quoted at 90) a 90j. At Liverpool cotton remained as before, while flour and wheat bad declined. Provisions were dull. We have news from Havana to the 30th ult, re- ceived by the steamship Cahawba, which arrived at this port last evening. Trade was dull. The money market, however, was easy, with exchange on New York at par. The financial troubles in the United States had somewhat injuriously affected business- Fieights were improving. The stook of sugar re maining on hand amounted to 195,000 boxes. Yel low fever had declinei considerably. The American slaver Mazeppa, previous!y reported captured off Cardenas, had fifteen hundred slaves on board. Several arrests for complisity in the slave traffic had recently been ma le, among them a person hold* | ing @ government office. We have Yucatan dates to September 15. The revolution against Governor Panleteon Barrera had not yet been put down, and a skirmish between the parties was daily expected. The Campeche rebels | kept up the semblance of a government, and had regularly organized an army under Major General Ignacio Lavalle. The town of Tebat had been sacke! by the Inéians, at the instigation of the rebels, and every house in the place more or less injured slaughter cf women and children was considerable ; the men managed to secrete themselves until the Indians retired, which tney did aftor one day's slay. Our correspoodent at Cape Haytien, writing on the Sth alt., states that Capt Mayo, an American, had been arrested there on a charge of forgery. atevedore had been found with $400 of forged bills in his possession, and when examined he alleged that he stole them from an Ametican brig. ble mercantile house, were beld to answer. The notes were sent from Boston. I: was thought, how. | ever, the accused parties were innocent. The coffee crop promised well. The market was over. stooked with produce, and lard and fish were un- saleable. Log wood sold at 50 to pertoa American gold brought a high premium. The following is a correct statement of the amount of treasure shipped on board the Sonora at san Francisco on the 20ch of August last:— Amerioen treasure, . $1,200,180 43 Portpran jenpure. ° ‘eenes treawere, The American treasure was lost in the Centra! Amevica. The amount is leas by some four hundred thousend dollar than has heretofore been stated in the reports of the loss. We learn from Messrs. Wells, Fargo & Co., that they bave received duplicate bills of Isding and drafts against their consignment of gold lost in the Central America, and that they have drawn on the inearers in England, with directions for the returns to be made in specie: and other parties insuring abroad have no doubt done the same thing. A farewell missionary meeting was held on Sun day evening at Dr. Smith's Presbyterian church, in Fourteenth street. Amongst the clergymen present were the Rev. Messrs. Smith, Wood, Busdwell, Jack, Quick, Holdridge and Ferris. The meeting was con vened on the occasion of the departure of the Rev Mr. Jack, Mrs. Jack, Miss Van Allen and three young ladies, who leave today in the Ocean Eagle for the Episcopal Mission at Cape Palmas; as also of the Rev. Mr. Ogden and wife, who are shout to de part for the Preabyterian Mission in the island of Corsica. Mr. Wood, in referring to the probable effects of the present commercial revulsion on the ‘ollections of the missionary societies, stated that in 7, when the American Board was in need of more aapistance, a number of zealous Christians came for ward, and it received that year several thousands of dollars more than in 1°86, and $210,000 more the next three following years than it did in the three preceding ones. The Rev. Mr. Bush- well, referring to the condition of the African missions, stated that they had every reason The | Al On this | the sbipmaster, as well as a member of a respecta. | Haytien dollars | with the exception of Hiram Denio, in whose place Hiram Ketchum was nominated. The American Judiciary Convention met last evening, and nominated Judge C. A. Peabody for Supreme Court, long term; Wm. Mitchell for Su- preme Court, short term; Benjamin W. Bonney and Joseph Bosworth for Superior Court, Wm. M. Allen for Court of Common Pleas, Wm. H. Brown for Marine Court. The Committee on Markets of the Board of Coun- cilmen met yesterday afternoon to hear testimony with regard to the proposed purchase of the Ganse- yoort property as a site fora public market. Mr Roosevelt appeared before the committee, and ia an address of much ability represented that the original sale of the property by the city in 1852 was invalid on account of Mr. Simeon Draper, a city official, having been the purchaser; that the Supreme Court had already decided that the sale was illegal; and that as the property now belonged to the city, though in the possession of other parties, its repurchase by | the city would be a wasteless expenditare. Mt. Roose- velt stated that the case hadalso been argued on | appeal, and that any moment a decision from the fall bench might be expected confirming the decision of the Supreme Court. The committee will report | forthwith; and as the resolution to buy the property has already passed the Board of Aldermen, their re port will be looked for with much interest | We learn from a gentleman who has recently re- turned from California, and who was attached to the judiciary of the State, that the courre which the | State must pursue in regard to her pecuniary obli- | gations, will be as follows, viz.:—The people having constitutionally endorsed their legality, the bonds wil all be called in, and new ones issued in their | stead, covering the principal and all past due in- terest; that the next Legislature will levy a tax sufficient to pay the annual interest on them; and tha’ this process will cause some delay, and that it may be January, 1859, before the bond holders obtain cash payments of dividends. He thinks it | not improbable that as the State has been unfortu- nate in one of two of its agents, that the coupons moy hereafter be made payable in California. The cabin paseengers of the steamsbip Star of the West on her recent voyage from Aspinwall, last evening, st the Metropolitan Hotel, presented a silver goblet and pitcher to her commander, Capt, A. G. Gray, as a token of their appreciation of bis merits as a sailor and a gentleman. [he presenta tion speeches were made by Gov. Foote and Hon, | Charles L. Seott, of California, to which Capt.

Doubtless | the Mormons have been somewhat damaged by the | preswure in the money market, and their determina- tion to let the world wag as it will is probabiy at tributable in some degree to a wise economy. The Commitice on Railroads of the Board of Councilmen were to have met yesterday to hear tes- timony in relation to a proposition to stop the use of steam on the Eleventh avenue, below 59th street, and substitute amail passenger care thence to the | terminas at Chambers street. No parties for the mesrure appearing but Mr. Garret Stryker, the mect- ing was, at his request, adjourned to Thursday next. ‘The Police Commissioners’ Committee on General Discipline wae yesterday afternoon engaged in tak- ing testimony in several cases of minor charges Against policemen.

After a lapse of sixteen days since the first party of thore saved from the Central America were landed at Norfolk from the gallant little brig Marive, and when every hope of seeing any more of the unfortunate passengers and crew of the lost steamer had been almost extinguished, three more have been returned to their homes. After enduring the most terrible sufferings on the open sea for nine days—they were without food or water—drenched with the waves, exhausted from exposure, and reduced to skeletons by starvation, they were mercifully snatched from death in the darkest hour of despair. The ac- count of their long agony, which we publish this morning, is harrowing. One of them, Mr. Tice, the second engineer was drifting on a plank for seventy-two hours’ when, espying one of the damaged life boats, he fortunately succeeded in reaching her, and soon after fell in with the other two, Grant and Daw- son, clinging to the hurricane deck of the steam- er, and took them off. There is a sad episode in the story of these two men. It appears that at one time there were | twelve in all on the burricane deck, of whom ten perished miserably from exposure and starvation —a slow, lingerivg and painful death. While drifting about at the mercy of the waves, they saw several others clinging to portions of the wreck, bat were unable to aid them; and as there is no account of any of them having been taken off by any other vessel, the painful con- clusion is forced upon us that they are lost—that we ehall never hear more of the brave Herndon and the hundreds of uxfortunates who went down with him on the deck of the Central America. It is a remarkable fact that the men last siz hundred miles from the spot where the steamer sunk, before they were picked up—a dreary voyage—-the terrors of — with a protracted and agonizing death staring them in the face, no one but themselves can realize. There are few instances, if any, on record of men enduring vo much from the diraster of shipwreck, yet coming so bravely through it. Though there is little cause for hope that any more will be or have been saved, stili there isa bare possibility that some of those seen clinging to the captain’s cabin or the wheel house may have been picked up by some vessel not yet heard from. We sincerely trust, though we hard- ly dare hope, that it may be so. Istencertep Letrers or THE Percviay Mruister.--We publieh to-day certain letters of Mr. De Oema, Peruvian Minister at Washington, addreesed to President Castilla, which have been intercepted by the revolutionists and made pub- lic in Peru. Mr. Osma gives us a graphic picture of Peruvian affairs generally, and of the lamenta- tions of the foreign Ministers at Washington at the deplorable ignorance of the first stateemen of Europe in regard to the United States. Accord- ing to him, the European representatives are always in hot water, because their statesmen at | home will nor or cannot comprehend the genius and cbaracter of a people that has come into existence and attained the proportions of a giant in an incredibly short period of time. It will be seen that he is violently opposed to the protecto- rate of England and France; and his jadgment of the course of England in relation to the con- | vention formed for that purpore with the British and French Ministers in Lima has been borne out by its rejection. Mr. Oema gives a frank and not uafavorable opinion of the United States; and his recom. mendation to his government to place foreign officers in its navy, is a good one, though it may seem to reflect upon Peruvian loyalty. What he says about the course Peru should pursue in | its intercourse with this country is full of politi- | | A Mormon Conference, composed of delegates | | cal wisdot ind bis remarks in regard to the fact that any one may represent the republic in Europe, but a man of sense and judgment should be sent to Waebington, is very applicable to our own foreign repreeentation. Our Ministers, like these of Peru, have little or nothing to do in Europe: but in Spanish-America, which is begin- ping to look to us as the leading Power of this continent, we should bave a better class of men | than we bave been accustomed to send. These letters of the Peruvian Minister will open the eyes of etatesmen in Europe to a new view of the position of this country in its rela- tions to the Sponish-American republics, and | will not be without their effect upon our own public men. So frank 8 judgment addressed by an accredited Minister, in private letters, to the hesd of his own goverument, merits great corsideration, and will no doubt receive it. We commend these letters to the perusal of our readers. Ges. Priow ano Gey. Hrrencock—Dox't Lrt tuxm Comm Tooetien —We publish today a violent letter from Gen. Pillow against Gen- Hitchcock, and another very unceremonious sort of letter from Gen. Hitchcock concerning Gen- Pillow. From these two letters, it will be seen tuat the origipal question at issue—to wit, Gen Pillow’s declaration in reference to the alleged | bribing of Santa Anna by Gen. Scott—bas de- generated into a mere interchange of offensive perronalitice. With these personalities we bave nothing to do, except to express our regret that a margin of ten years for reflection has proved too short an interval for the settlement of the rivalries, jealousies, mieunderstandings, bicker- ings. quarrels, &¢., among the officers of Gen. Scott's army before the city of Mexico. We think, too, that as Gen. Scott has interposed and tettled the main question touching the Santa Apna bribery allegations of Gen. Pillow, there is nothing leit of Gen. Pillow’s original letter of any epecial interest to the public Certainly the public bave no particular anxicty to know what Gen. Hiteheock and Gen. Pillow think of each other, beyond what is already known. It isa pity, however, that these belligerent gentlemen cannot be brought before one of the Naval Courta Martial now in session at Washington ; for thas they would have an opportunity to produce their witnesses and their vouchers until they had enough of it, and without inflicting their personal grievances upon the community. It is only as & part of the eupplemental history of the Mexican war ttmt we publish these exchanges of sulphur and ealtpetre between Gen. Hitchoock and Gen. Pillow; and because, when two men or two women are engaged in a street qnarrel, all their neighbore like to hear what is going on. rescued bad drifted on their frail support nearly | Damon Anp Pramas oy A New Cast~Mas- S4 GREELEY AND Masrer Dan Sioxixs.—Our amiable and irty taced , Marea Greeley, of the Tribune, is loud in his sympathy for Master Dan Scklee, whose bright name, it seems, has been omiited in the announcement of s meeting where he was to deliver an oration on the mapners abd morsls of young politicians. The sympathy between Damon and Pythias in the old olaesic times was natural, and 60 is this. It might be expected that the thousand dollar stool Pigeon of Matteson and his friends—who were turned out of the House of Representatives— would very naturally sympathise with the five hundred dollar referee of the Lowber swindle held up to public scorn and execration by Jude Roose- velt. But we are not hard hearted. If Master Dan Sickles intends to address an assembly of his fellow citizens, we will suggest to him a few gocd points for his speech. Let him describe how & young politician may make @ searation in public life by introducing improper women into respectable society in a legislative gallery. Let him sbow how an indictment for fraud or for- gery in a deed helps amazingly an ambitious yeung man to rise at Tammany Hall Let him paint, in the most glowing colors that his elo- quence can depict, how a young cadet of Tamma- ny may enjoy the spoils of office through an untried indictment for theft from a Post Office. In shert, there’s no end of interesting topics which Master Dan Sickles may not use in a poli- tical discussion, and treat so eloquently as to give him even stronger claims upon the sympa- thy of bis new friend—Massa Greeley, the philo- sophic thousand dollar stool pigeon of O. B. Mat- teson. ‘THE LATEST NEWS. Rows from W: WHAT OBEY JONBS 18 DOING DOWN IN OENTBAL AMERICA—-THE TESUANTRFEC GRANT—MORE STBaM BLOOPS OF WAB, ETC. Wasuincroy, Oct. 6, 1857.
