Ierrap Starnes Srxamsuir Minsiasrrrt, be ‘St. Huuana, Oct. 4, 1857. } AU Well on Board—Comfort and Discipline—Treatment of the Apprentice Boys—The Run from New York—Arrival im Port and Salute. It is with pleasure that I inform those who may have friends on board of this ship, through the columns of the ‘Hamas, of our safo arrival at this port. We arrived here to-day, after a vory pleasant passage from Maderia. ‘We have had only one of our boilers in use on the pas- sage, using on an average, about nine pounds of steam. Captain Wm. C. Nicholson may well be proud to command such a noble ship. Ho has assigned a proper time for all ‘the various duties on shipboard to be performed; for in- a@iance, every Monday morning is assigned for general quarters, and every afternoon one or more divisions are drilled in light infantry, Every Saturday morning all hands are obliged to air their bedding; this being done, they are allowed the rest of the day to overhaul and mend their elothing, no other duty being required of them except such as is necessary to work the ship; no sewing or extra labor is allowed on the Sabbath, the forenoon being devoted to divine service, and the remainder of tho day to reading, &c. The ship is provided with three shower baths, so that the ofcers and men can enjoy a coo] sea bath every day—a luxury which few of our bro- ther sailors can boast of. Tt may not come amiss to say a few words in regard to the discipline and good conduct of the crow. This ship has in commission aearly three months, and nota man has been confined in the ‘meat boxes.” All seem to be determined to show to the American le and the world that if they arc on board of a man-of-war they are and can be men without the use of the cats or colts. Not the least worthy of notice is our agprentice boys, sixteen in pumber, varying from fourteen to eighteen years of age. Thatthey may become useful men in the avy, Captain Nicholson has adopted the following plan. Instead of allowing them to idle away their time about the decks they are employed as follows:—Three of them have ‘eon placed in charge of our gunner, Mr. Wm. Bernice, who ia instructed to learn them the art of gunuery; three more have been placed in charge of the boatswain to learn that art; three more have been placed in charge of the sailmakor to learn the trade of sailmaking; three more have been placed in the engine room to learn the art of engincering—and it must be gratifying to the parents of ‘these boys to loarn that they are in a fair way to do well, af iy * will only strive So to do themselves. The other four, being the ) oungest, have been detailed toact as mes- senger boys for the quarter deck. We have on board fifty boxes, each containing two thousand rations of French dried vegetables, for soup? We are to retain twenty thousand rations, and tite rest is to be distributed amongst the squadron in China, These vegetables are served out twice a week, and will go a great way towards keeping the ship's company clear from the scurvy, and promote health amongst the crew We have been absent from New York only forty-four days, seven of which we have been in port, leaving us thirty-seven days at sea, during which time we have sailed five thousand nine hundred and seventy miles; nearly all this has been done under steam. In latitude 9 north we took strong southeast winds, which lasted us to ‘this port. To ease our engiges as much as possible our sails were bent and our ¥ and topgallantmast were sent down. Tho weather was so cold after crossing the line that pea jackets were in great demand. Shortly after ‘we came to an anchor we hoisted the English flag at our fore and saluted it with twenty-one guns, which was re- aurned from the port. Business dull here.

As there is a whale ship in port bound to the United States, to sail this evening, I drop you a few lines respect- ing matters bere. We have taken our coal (200 tons) on board, and shall leave this port on Saturday for Cape Town. Our officers and crew are still enjoying excellent health; none on the sick list. Business is extremely dull on the island; everything is dreadful high. While on shore a day or two ago I called at a hotel and took dinner, for which they charged me one dollar and fifty cents, which was no better than din- ners that can be bought in your city eating houses for three shillings. We had to pay twenty-five dollars per hundred pounds for fresh beef for the ship's com- pany, and poor enough it was, too. ‘The poorer class of the inhabitants live in the most economical way that they can, their chief food being rice and fish—the harbor or roadstead being full of fish of all kinds. Flour retails at the stores for twelve dollars per one hundred pounds. Fora horse to ride up to Longwood, the former residence of Bonaparte—distance three miles— they tax you three and four dollars; horses and coach to the same place, fifteen dollars. There are two hotels in the place, and they look more like deserted graveyards ‘than hotels. One of them is called the Storer Hotel, after ‘the proprietor; the other is called the St. Helena. ' The: do not either of them appear to be troubled with too m custom. ‘There aretwochurches. The English Episcopal church is mituated in (be square, near the gate entrance to the town, and is a very neat two story edifice, built of the na- tive brown stove of the island. It will probably seat about three hundred people, i neatly finished and bas a very fine organ. The other isa Catholic church, and is situated weil up on the bill, pear the quarters for the sol- diers, and is built of the same material as the former. ‘There are now only about six hnndred soldiers on the island At the right of the town, as you enter it, on a very high mountain, is the principal fort, from’ which all sa- tutes are fired. It commands the whole town. There are two ways of reaching this fort: one is by long winding Toads on the mountains the other is by steps cut into the mountain, three hundred and sixty-five in number—one for every day io the year. It requires from half to three quarters of an hour for one to ascend these steps; ouce up them you have a most beautiful sight of the whole town and most of the island. and the Atlantic ocean as far as the eye can eee. In the roadstead lay the hulls of three condemned Yankee slavers, stripped of everything, and used for storage for the garrison ‘The old house which was once the residence of the greatest man of his age—Napoleon—is now used as a windmill t grind corn, &c. ‘The vault that once con- tained his \ilustrious remains is fast going to dechy, open to the inspection of all; an old ladder answers in the place of steps to descend into it. The Englith here say that they now have nothing to do with these sacred places, they having been turned over to the French government If this be true it i a disgrace to that nation that they do not «pend a few hundred dollars to keep these hallowed places in order We have been visited by all of the officers of the garr son.

After the compract was made the price of the oll rose in the market, im consequence of events in China and tho Rast Indies. It was contended that if toe shipment had arrived here ac: cerding to the terms of the contract, the vendee would have realized a certain profit. It appeared that the events of the Chinese war were not s0 disastrout to American commerce in the Chinese seas aa was anticipated, and se- veral cargoes coming in. the price of the off fell to 63 ib, When the Chilo arrived the vendee ascertained she had been detained in the port of Penang thirty-two days, and he not having been informed by the vender that the ship had permieaion to stop at other ports than that of departure, refused to take the commodity he bad con- wd for. There were the facts for the defence, the «| claiming the affirmative iasne. On the part of the plaintif!, it was shown that it was the usual custom of ships io the American trade of taking their departure from Singapore, with leave to stop at Penang or some «aber port in China, and that the detention of the Chilo ‘Was not out of the ordinary course of trade. The Court held that if the vender or his agent did not inform the vendee of the vessel having this permiasion, it was the bounden duty of the vendee to have informed himseW of the weual course of vessels returning from these ports.

Affaire in San ‘The New Treaty with New Granada—1he Old Colombian Dett—The Guano Question—New Consul for New York— ‘The Heap has been received in due course. The con- vention between tho United States and New Granada is of great importance, as it embraces all claims of American citizens against New Granada since that republic beoamo an independent nation, or rather an integral part of the late Republic of Colombia, As there are still many claims against the old Colom- bian government, of which Venezuela is bound to bear ber sharo, a similar convention between the United States and Venezuela, to adjust all claims by commissioners, would be of the utmost importance, and thereby shut the door against all claims not presented within a given time. The American Minister, Mr. Charles Eames, and his lady, arrived afew days since in the bark White Wing, from Philadelphia, and have secured the palace of General Paez, ex-President of Venezuela, as their future residence. It is understood that Mr. Eames has brought with him peremptory instructions with respect to the Aves ques- tion, and it is believed the matter will bo reduced to the question of meruit; and even this could be sete tled with greater certainty under a commission, where witnesses could be called and examined. Senor Antonio Guzman Blanco bas been a] ited Con- sul of Venezuela for New York, and Qarlos india for Philadelphia. ‘The steamer Union, which plies between Laguayra and Porto Cabello, arrived out from Philadelphia in nine days. We hear of no revolutionary movements at present, and it is believed there are none on foot. We have bad abundance of rain, and the ing crops are said to be good; but laborers are few and far between. If the dnancial concerns of the country were conducted with ability and honesty, Venezuela might yet retrievo herself from ber pecans embarrassment. ‘The English claims are likely to operate seriously, and. embarrass this repablic. The cession of the province of Guyana to Great Britain is said to be the only method of satisfying the English bondholders. This large and almost uninhabited territory would prove valuable to England, and would soon be settled if under the British flag, wh at present it is a useless waste and of no value to Vene- zuela. OUR 8T. THOMAS CORRESPONDENCE. St. Tuomas, Oct. 31, 185%. Custom House Ewactions at Venezuela. A rare case has happened in Ciudad Bolivar (Angos- tura) which will prove to you how Venezuela is governed just now. A ship belonging to Mr. Dalla Costa has ar- rived here, because her owner has preferred to lose money rather than submit to the gavelas (exactions) of that Custom House, All the merchants are very much excited against it, A returned European cargo from Ciudad Boli- var, worth $200,000, to be sold here with positive loss, is the best argumevt I can afford to give you in regard to the condition of things in Venezuel Correspondence of the Philadelphia Exc!

The money panic in Europe and America has affeoted us very sensibly. Business is tremely dull, notwithstanding « good supply of nati produce, which is without demand, owing partly to a stringency in money and partly to the non-compliance of parchasers to the exorbitant prices asked by producers. 1 country is quiet.

News from Honduras. OUR BELIZE CORRESPONDENCE. Beuzs, Hoy., Oct. 28, 1857. Advices from New York—Quick Time—The Wrecking Business and Wreckers’ Awards—Vessels in Distress— The Bark Alden of New York—Provisions Emeedingly High—Produce Rates—The Money Crisis and Exchange. Tembrace the opportunity of the sailing of the brig Lucy Hayford, Captain Powers, for your port, to inform you of passing events in British Honduras, and its vicinity. Firet, let me tell you that on the 2lst inst. we; had New York papers of the 8th—telegraphic despatches from New York up to the 16th, and the steamers news from England, to the Sth of October—that is, despatches in Belize from New York, inside of five, and from England, of seventeen days. This is by a long way the shortest or quickest intelligence from New York or England which bas ever been known here, and about comes up to what we expect when the submarine telegraph has connected England and America—Awerica and the isle of Cuba— Cuba and Yucatan—Yucatan and Belize fin its extended talking embrace. By this early transmission of news wo | are now in possession of ag late news as we shall have by the royal mail steamer which will be due here in the middle of next month. So we are not out of the world altogether in Belize. The cholera in Honduras continues steadily to approach us ; it has travelled clear across the State, and is now at work in the town of Truxillo, and we expect it here daily, The smallpox has made a complete march through every part of the settlement of British Honduras. It has been monty, confined to the lower orders of the population, and although it has been very general among that class, yet I think I may safely say ‘thas not been very fatal: it Still lingers in the mahogany works, along north and south, and up all the rivers among ou! tation men."’ At the town of Corosal, in the northern sugar district, they have not only had the smallpox, but they have had a very malignant fever, which has been very fatal ntnong the children. They are generally taken with a slight fever, which continues to increase uriti! the attacked «es in Violent convulsions, which is in from twenty to forty eight hours, We have had several very heavy gales here within tho last eight weeks, and we hear of the loss of a large ves- se] to the north, and of one of the English vessels which lefthere for England. We also are informed that a bark ison shore on Assention Bay Reef. Our wreckers have at length gone out to the latter, more to save life than property; for this reason:—The Legislature, at its last session, passed a law placing wrecked property of all kinds vem, Delize, in the hands and under the con trol of the Board of Port Wardens. These are g in their places; but as it regards the ris trouble of saying Wrecked property, the little they have done has fully prove they know but little about awafding even @ paying Temuneration to the wreckers for their dangerous serv ives ‘As instance, I mention their last award on the materials and part of the cargo—mebogany—of the Sardinian bark Amelia Protolengo, wrecked ou the Northern Troughs, near a bundred miles from here. it was 50 per ceut on the materials, and 45 percent on the mahogany. This paid the handsome eum of forty cents a man for each day one of the vessels was engaged at that wreck. While this was the lowest that was shared, still these who re- ceived the highest shares were dissatisfied; and now, with the certainty of one ashore, the wreckers cannot bo induced to start from Belizo, where they carn nine reals day and found—grog included—for a wreck, its hard ehips, toils and dangers, and only the prospect of haif of shore pay. This course by the Port Wardens will found to be a closing the bung and opening the head; or in other words, the prospect now is that all wrecked Properly, ia our vicinity will be lost, and what is very ikely, many lives also, The English bark Wm. Wallace came into port on tho 26th in distress. Sho hae been ashore on the Mosquito coast, and is in a very bad condition. A survey has been held, and the result is that her cargo has to be discharged and she will most likely be condemned. She leaks about four inches an hour. The bark Wm. 0.

The price of American pro- visions remains good, but tho immense importations of these articles have made the sales rather difficult; still, this week beef and pork have sold at pretty good prices. Lumber is still arriving in large quantities, and the peo- ple begin to ask what were our merchants thinking about when they ordered ft its price has now fallen 80 low as hardly to pay cost and freight.

The citizens of this great empire are so wofully green that they prefer the worthless shinplasters of the government to gold, and if man was to offer them gold at half its intrinsic value they would not take it. Business is carried on here in a manner perfectly unin- telligible to those not initiated into the secrets of “trade on tick.’’ Let me give you one example with regard tocul- fee:—The country people collect the coffee of their little hes, tor there are no estates of any respectable size ere, and after cleaning it as much as they think is ne- ceasary to sell, put it upin small parcels. Half a dozen neighbors then throw their little Is together, and tho smartest old woman they can find is put on a donkey and sent to town to sell the coffee. All the gates of the towns and cities are crowded with coffee buyers, who lay hold of the women in just about the same manner as the Chatham street clothing Jews dothe “country "and af- ter a great deal of bargaining and pulling about, and subse- quent cheating in the weight, the bargain is at length con- cluded. These coffee buyers then put ee in hogs of 130 munds each and sell it to somo small merchant. isone, ving united perhaps a hundred bags, sells it to some importing house, which gells it again to several others, deliverable at different times, delivers it to the first buys it up again, bas it sold then through a broker and again bought up by another, making it change hands at least fifty times every week. At last it passes through the ‘Custom: se and is sent on board a vessel; but not even there does the coffee find rest, for it is sold and bought se- veral times, frequently, after the ship has already sailed. ‘The History of a Bag of Coffee” would be a subject worthy of the pen ofa man more able than your corres- pondent, and quite an teresting volume might be gotten up by following its migrations from the plant to the coffve pot, where “poor coflve,”’ after being fround up in such low and vulgar company as roasted beans and peas, and mixed with that execrable chicory, is at length con signed to its watery grave. Our monetary business is not less mysteriously carried on. Millions of Haytien dollars exchange hands every day, and not acent is seen. Everything is done by the brokers and jobbers, who have completely monopolized the market; and without their interference it is utterly impossible to get either a note discounted or a dill on Europe signed. Capt. Mayo, of the R. W. Packer, and his steward, who were arrested some time ago at the Cape upon a charge of introducing counterfeit money, have arrived here im a sthall schooner, which is pompously styled “a Haytien man-of- war.’’ A mulatto, who came as passenger inthe gid brig from the States and had the money in his iuake, Mipeare to be the guilty one, and the law Will probably be pretty severe wih him. The trial will come off on the 16th. At ‘that time the captain and steward will have been over two months in prison, Whether the government of the United ‘States will sustain them in their claim for damages for illegal imprf@onment remains to be seen. ‘¢ have additional news from the Spanish side, which is not limited to the usual complaints about cattle stealing. Baez and his party are reported on the eve of surrender- ing. It is even said that a third and independent party had sprung up in the very city of St. Domingo, whose first act was to put Baez in prison; but this is a rumor which merits no belief. At any rate, the end of the presenttragico- comic drama seems to be close at hand. ‘The last week has brought us a few officors of the Do- minicans, entrusted with a message to his ‘most sable oy O08 As thay belonged to the Santana party, their object was to Bg “his imperial and most sable ma: Cy, to defer bis intended invasion until they should jaye had time to finish Baez, which they think themselves able to do in afew days now, their siege train having al- ready arrived. This siege ‘train, of which such great thimgs are expected, consists of one entire gun, a twelye- pounder. His majesty has consented to the ‘request of the Spaniards, after the customary hesitation, on the condition that they should afterwards use their influ- ence in bringing the whole island under his sway, which, of course, they promised. The people of the city of St. Domingo are said to be nearly starving, and this will prove the most powerful ally of Santana’ Still they defend themselves well, and only a few ore ago made a sortie with the intention of capturing the ceie- brated “twelve pounder.” The brother of Baez was mor- tally wounded in this attempt aud died shortly afterwards. In the meantime his imperial and most sable majesty is quietly reposing on his laurels of the former @ampaign and passes away the dull time by esting sugar cane, of which he is amazingly fond, By the way, the whole of the garden of the imperial palace has been planted with sugar cane, and some knowing ones say that Papa So- Jouque “intends trying somo time or other whether his im- perial princes and Marechaua del’ Hmpire can make them. selves as generally useful by cutting cane and making sugar as they used to do ia their younger days.” Papa Solouque is aman of great foresi¢itt. Perhaps he sees trouble ahead and likes the high price of negroes in Cuba. Tho English sloop-of-war Arachue paid ua a flying visit while on her way to Kingston. ‘The weather continues very favorable for the gasherin; of the coffee crop, and that article is pouring in from ‘al sides in daily increasing quantities. This week the arri- vals from the coast and interior have been nearly 5,000 bags, and there is now @ right smart stock om han. Under the latest news from the United States its price has gone down to $5, and is expected to fall still more. It is feared that this low price will have the effect of keep. ing the naturally lazy country people from gathering, and that consequently the erops’ may turn out much shorter than we anticipate. Logwood is daily arriving in immense quantities, but its price keeps steady at former rates, $4 50 per 1,000 pounds I understand that our port is quite healthy now My last letter about our physicians has fallen like a bombshell in the camp of these learned “disciples of Es culapius.”” As | like to do justice to all, I will just state that they lay the blame of the great mortality here en- t ny aptains, who persist in keeping the sick 1, doctoring them them- sailors th selves: whe on shore, it is only to Jot them die. ree, and it does not doctors here can hot come to an understanding; so let them Oyht out their battles themnelves, Port av Pace, May 1, 1867.

The news received from the Stats relative to the im priconment of Captain Mayo has been of such a positive character as to clear him, his steward and Mr. Roche, the native partners of the house, entimly. The government has also received despatches from the Haytien Coasul jn Roston, confirming the innocence of these parties, and showing that the only guilty one is a certain person who came as passenger in the R. W. Parker, This completely endorses my opinion given in a previous letter, and tends to show how little credit must be given to information gained from persons who hold offees under government How the government can still hesitate to liberate Capt. Mayo and his steward, and want them to go through « trial, © more than f can undecstand. They are only making their case worse, and will have to settle a prot smart bill when the American men-of-war arrive, whic are now daily expected. It is feared though, that as Mr. Roche is a Haytien he will not befairly dealt with. The gollty man is also s to de a Haytien. The in- quiries and investigations made in Boston have shown that eeveral native houses at Cape Haytien have been in the habit_of importing whole cartioads of counterfeit money. The stereotype and electrotype plates from which the bills were drawn, were found there. It is said that eeveral of there were violent in denouncing Mr. Roche and Capt. Mayo. The continued presence of some men of war (no matter of what nation) is mach required bere. The in-olence of these negroes, expecially of petty officers, has become quite insupportable. White men are daily imaulted by ‘these fellows, and treated in the most infamour manner. There is no redress, because these brutes are ahielted by ragged harlequin’ coat, with brass buttons. A white man cannot find jwtice here unless he condescenis to bribe ail the judges and oflicers. These are the people who wonld be reduced to starva- tion if we were to withhold our provisions for #ix month only. This is that celebrated ‘African race” wh ch keeps poiitios in the Unites!

He was discovered, indeed, by Ris own bad managemem. Instond of landing naturally, on the arrival of the ship, with the other passengers, he stayed on board until everybody had left; por did he then venture forth, but sat down and wrote a to a citizen of Vera Crus, asking information as to the political stace of the 'y. Answer was returned that everything was right, and that his presence was fanxiou#ly awaited in the city. It doe’ not appear that there was any bal faith fn the matter; nevertheless, the transmission of notes at tracted attention, The police were pot on the alert; and when, finally, the distinguished General did make bi« ap- pearance, everything was fully prepared for him, and he was at once taken into custody.

It will follow that constitution as framed, with the slavery article, will be submitted to ce early in the ensuing spring. At the same time, the State State party will present their objections to the same, in the form of a remonstrance from some public assembly or other organized body. ‘These objections are not entitled to so much weight as might be at firat glance supposed; and it may be doubted whether any of them are sufficiently grave to overcome the pressing argumentof the necessity of admitting Kansag ‘a8 a State without delay, and thus taking the whole ques- tion, so long agitated, out of Congress and leaving it a State affair. ‘The objections may allbeanswered. For instance—The. Convention ré| nted a minority, because the free State party factiously refused to vote for the Legislature which called the Convention. The only question as to “domestic institutions’? was the slavery question, and that is sub- mitted to fall oe The right of property in slaves now in the Territory is a vested right, and cannot be just- ly violated. As to amendments of the constitution the schedule presents no real difficulty. There is no Ameri can law or popular principle at the bottom of that which will regulate it. Thus all but the last objection is disposed of, and this is the weakest of all; for the transfer to the Convention of the power to receive and canvass the votes upon the constitutional election is in conformity with uni- form precedents. Moreover, as the free State men refuse to vote at the election, it will be of no consequence to them under whose supervision it shall be conducted.

The New Sloop-of War. Arrangements are rapidly progressing at the Navy De- partment for the pui e Of putting the work upon the five sloops-of-war under way. The different designs for the hulls and machinery had to be examined and devided upon before the final erders could be issued, and they have noarly reached that stage when operations may at least be partially commenced. million of dollars were appropriated by the last Congress for this object, but ac- cording to the general estimates before the Department, at least one million three hundred thousand more will be needed to complete the construction and hee ya of the vessels. One ship is to be built in the Philadelphia Navy Yard, and the engines given out by contract there. One ship and the engines are assigned to New York by con- tract. One ship to the Boston Navy Yard, the engines to be constructed in New York. One ship to the Norfolk Navy Yard, and the engines to be constructed at the go- vernment ry here, and one ship to the Pensacola Navy Yard. ‘This is a fair disposition of the patronage at the import- ant points of the seaboard, and exhibits a disposition to consider the wants of labor where the necessities are most urgent.

Governor Walker's Visit to bbe sees sore Position To- wards the Constitutional * lement of the Kansas rstion. . Governor Walker had, by the latest advices received from him, arrived at Booneville, on his way to Washing- ton. He may be expected to arrived here in a few days. ‘The factthat he has left thu Territory at this time is a sufficient proof that he roves of the action of the Con- stitutional Convention. If he did not approve of it, and if he deemed it inconsistent with the pledges which he had given to the people, in various speeches, before the late election, that they should have a fair opportunity to vote upon the constituticn, he would at once have com- plied with the urgent request of the free Atate leaders, and called a special session of the Legislature, which body would meet for the purpose of annulling all prior legisia- tive acts, including the act authorizing the Constitutional Convention. It was in Governor Walker's power to have thus an- nuiled all the action of the Convention, and to have se- cured the election of another, under a new law; or to have left it for Congress to authorize the call of a Conven- tion. It may be assumed that Governor Walker approves ‘and maintains the action of the Convention, and, if so, it ae far to settie the question before Congress and the blie. Miaay democratic presses which have taken a stand against the action of the Convention, have done it apparent- ly, upon incorrect and defective information, or erroneous views of the effect of some of the provisions of the consti- tution and the schedule; and it may be supposed that they reconsider their judgment of the matter. It is by no means certain that the Kansas people are to be resisted by afew violent abolitionists any longer, and it is reported that the mass of the free State men are quite indifferent to the question now presented. They = vou at the Constitutional Convention in sufficient numbors to adopt the constitution without slavery, which will end tho question. But if they do not vote, ‘the constitution with slavery will be submitted immediately to Congress, and ought to be approved without unnecessary delay. f the people choose then to alter the constitution, they can do it through another Convention, to be called by the Legislature of the State at is first session. {Correspondence of the Pennsylvanian. } Wasmiverox , Nov. 23, 1857. New Naval Where has Walker Gone?—News from the Indian Tribes. The report of the Bonrd of Naval Engineers, which mot in your city on the Sth inst. for the purpose of conducting of candidates for promotion and ad- mission into the engineer corps of the navy, has just been acted upon by the Secretary of the Navy. The following is the list of candidates who passed satisfactory examina tions; the first thirteen have been warranted; the re- mainder will be warranted as soon as vacancies shall occur:— George B. A. Tower, of Boston; B. B. H. Wharton, of Baltimore; John W. Tynan and Charles H. Levy, of Ports mouth, Va.; Morgan A. English, of Washington: Franklin K. Hain, of Reading, Pa. ; ton, Del.; John Burdey, of Wesbington; James W. Whita- ker, of Trenton, N. J.; Fredrick G. Brown, of New York; | B. E. Chasening, of Baltimore; Philip Inch, of Washington; W.H. Buehler, of Harrisburg, Pa.; Henry Snyder, of Camden, N. J.;' Elijah Laws, of Philadelphia; Joseph L. Butler, of Wilkesbarre, Pa.; Sumuel Fisk, of Lancaster, Pa.; Levi R. Green, of Providence, R. I. The following Assistant Fngineers passed satisfactory examinations, and were recommended by the Board for promotion, in the following order:— First Assistant Pogineer, Henry H. Stewart, to be Chief ineet after Benj. F. Garvin, Assistant Engineer, William S Stamm, to be First Assistant after Stephen P. Hibbert. There area great many contradictory romors afloat in this CS ae ge | the destination of the “ so-called’’ Pre- sident . It is maintained by some that he has gone to Hayti; others contend that he will trate hix forces ‘at Yucatan, Those rumors are evidently gotten up for the purpose of misleading the attention of the public. There can be no doubt that President Walker is just as deter- mined to conquer Nicaragua as he was two years ago. If wo were to make & comparison between his preeent pros- pects with those that surrounded him in tis first e compare the number of his men, the quantity of arms and ammunition, and the supplies of provisions—we should be compelled to admit that his at expedition is moch the more formidable, that the govern- ment of has everything to fearfrom it. Know- ing all this, time and again bad the evidence of the fixedness of which animates the great filibuster, Teannot bat believe that if he does not immediately land at some point within the limits of the Nicaraguan govern- ment, he will his forces at some convenient spot from which be can at any time, within afew bours, bear down = that ill-fated republic and commence hostilities where least expected There is mach reason to believe that Walker will be enceessfal in hia enterprive. Although he will receive no countenance from our government, baton the contrary will have every obatacle that a powerful government can make, thrown ip bis path, yet be will receive most valua- bie ion from private sources. A wealthy mer- jc firm in Mobile have umde public their determina- tion to ostablieh a line of ra between that port and Nicaragua, and it is fully belieFed here by those who are well acquainted with the facte, that he will have every agsiatance rendered to him by the company in possession of the Transit route. All this points to success, The Commissioner of Indian Affairs has received a letter John Waiker, one of thie Indian for New . ‘The ietter was written from Fort Buchanan on the 22d of September, Mr. Walker had been among the Indians of Arizonia—numbering four tribes—who expect the protection of the government to be extended to them. These Indians are greatly in need of supplies. ‘The Superintendent of Indian Affairs at St. Louis has informed the Commissioner of Indian Affairs that the pre vente for the Grosventres and Ms bad been distributed ong them to their entire satisfaction. The Blood and Hlackioot Indians bad broken their treaty stijyulations, saying the blame on the Indian Agents, who, they state, Jeft thom without distributing the presents. It is hoped, however, that after these presents shall have been given to them, they will be more tractable. United States District Court, Refore Hon Judge Betts. Nov. 24.—The United Siates v9.

Several communications were received and referred. The following communication was received from the Superintendent-— Work was resumed on the Park on Monday inst., nearly two hundred men being that day employed. ‘A large crowd of laborers seeking employment, gath- ered and remained during the day in front of the office. ‘As certain persons took advantage of this to stimulate a mischievous excitement, and as the Police Commissioners attached sufficient importance to this excitement to station ‘an armed force at the arsenal and to range loaded artillery up the Fifth avenue, I thought it my duty to offer no in- ducement for the re-assembling of the mob before the office. I accordingly adopted the rule to call for mo one out of the crowd, and to admit no applicants. During the following days the crowd nevertheless enlarged and grew more demonstrative. 4 . * * * * * * * Since the announcement that all the laborers to be em- ployed on the Park would be called for at their resideacea, the crowd before the office has daily lessened in number and excitability, notwithstanding unusual efforts on the part of those who havo scemed to be endeavoring to ex- cite a riot. During the week men haye been taken on, organized into gangs; tools provided and work assigned them; 120 of these wore yesterday employed under the direction of the Superintendent of PI ; 67 in draining, 206 in drilling, fledging and moving stone for the breakers, and 130 in bi stone into road metal. ‘The remainder are carting stone to clear the land and furnish material for the exterior wall. All laborers on arriving at the Park have been examined, and thoge best fitted for hard work, jpdging from their pearance and previous occupations, have been added to the stone blecking gang»; day laborers havo then been selected to the number needed; the remainder aro furnished with hammers and rings and instructed how to break stone, They are required to return their tools for one night to the office, and as one day’s work will ordinarily pay for them, they are then charged to them at cost. Each in commencing work is informed that he will be paid a fair price per cubic ard for all the stone he breaks, and that his wages will us be exactly proportionate to his industry. Several, on ascertaining this, haye thrown down their hammers and left the Park, thus making room for more needy men. ‘The inspectors are required to note in their books if such of those engaged are at work every day, and if any one fails to come two days in succession he is not there- after employed, unless his absence is accounted for satis- factorily. ‘The Inspectors. who rank as foremen of gangs of the day laborers, are also required to see that the stone is all broken to a proper size, that no rubbish is mixed with it or other knavery practiced, and to instruct in the use of the hammer and to encourage in every way the weaker and less expert. ‘The foremen of the day workers are men of some ex- perience in their present duties, The general interruption of work elsewhere has given me an excellent opportunity of selection, and I have the greatest confidenco in their energy and faithfulness, 1 have endeavored to impress upon each the peculiar duty at such a time as this, when multitudes of the best laborers are obliged to go to the poor house for want of work, of allowing no man to receive work from the Commissioners who is not disposed to give a full measure of labor for them. They are instructed to report any man who proves inefficient, and none such will be retained. The impression—which even magistrates have openly encouraged among the crowd before the office, and which has been constantly assumed re gentlemen occupying offices of honor and responsibility in their interviews with me—that the Park was to be made a charitable institution, I am determined to eradicate from the mind of at least every man em- loyed upon it. A number have been already discharged E personne ‘of this poliag. motton, it was Resolved, That the cartmen employed on the Park bo id $2 per day; double trucks, $3 50 per day; ox teams, ey per day; nutrserymen, $1 per day, and that foremen be paid the sum of $9 per week; the blacksmiths and nters $1 50 per day, and that payment be made on tho pay roll being certitied by tho Disbursing Clerk, Praga, Clerk, and Superintendent. ‘A resolution was adopted authorizing the withdrawing of the sum of $12,000 for the payment ef the persons em- loyed by the Board, and for such claims as may have en, or may be hereafter, ordored by the Board. The sum of one hundred dollars was appropriated for lights, &c., at the Engineer’s_and Superintendent's offices and the police station on the Park. It was resolved, That the hours of labor on tho Park, until the order of the Board, be from To’elock A. M. to 8 ox P. M.—haif an hour intermission to be allowed for inner. Several uninteresting matters were despatched, and the Board adjourned. The William Street and Water Street Mur~ ders, THE INQUESTS ADJOURNED TO AWAIT THE RESULT OF 4 REWARD TO BE OFFERED BY THE MAYOR FOR THE APPREHENSION OF THE MURDERERS—NAMES OF THE PARTIES UNDER ARREST—EFFORTS TO OBTAIN TESTIMONY, BTC. ‘The inquest in the case of the recent murder in the Water street dance house was adjourned to eight o’clock yesterday morning, and shortly after that hour the Coroner and jury assembled at tho Fourth ward station house. Coroner Connery asked if Captain Walling had any wit- nesses. Captain Walling said he had not. Coronery Connery said be had been told that one of Captain Walling’s men had track of an important witness. Captain Walling—If one of my men had any such infor- mation he would nas, likely fe and get the man. re ae eaner, —Very Tae en y vb I No, sir, id not refuse anything. soot may man about the matter as ‘soon aa be board of ty before I received your note. He went over to Brooklyn about it and did not get back until half-past 11, and it amounted to nothing. Coroner Connery—Very well, Captain, we must work together you know. I bave sent a note to the Mayor ask ing him to offer a reward in these cases. If the jury think proper to continue the inquisition I have no objec- tn, but when the reward is oifered we might get more facts. the 16th Capt. Walling—There are two men, as I have been in- formed, in the Spanish Consul’s house that we have never seen. i went to the District Attorney last night to get his advice about it and could not find him. Coroner Connery—You can see the men. I will give ‘ou ap order to the Consul that those men must be seen, him your business. Capt. Walling—1 will see them if [have to break the door down; should make a request to go in, and go in any way. ‘ Coroner Connery—I heard that you had arrested two men and had them here. Capt. Walling— That was in the William street business; but we were deceived. ‘A Juror—I suggest that inasmuch as there is a proba- bility of there being parties at the Spanish Consu!’s house, that we adjourn until Friday; we cannot bring ia anything definite as the case stands now. Coroner Connery—Ohb, yes, sir, you can, My manu- eeript that goes into the District Attorney's office has it sworn positively there is a ian who struck the deceased. It is aworn t iknow. Iquestioned him you know, and he swore to it. We must go according to what we have written. The truth is, gentlemen, after this passes out of your hands there will be no exertion about it. Per- haps after the reward is offered we mi opportunity to at least go to work and conclude the one case on Friday and the other on Saturday morning. Mr. Spencer, the counsel for the prieovers in the William street cage, says that the prisoners have been tov long confined and he will take out a habeas corpus. I can't belp it though; we have done all we can for the ends of justice. A Juror—i have heard that the landlady bad au inter- view with one of the prisoners at the Tombs. Corover Connery had not heard a word about it. Capt. Walling—One of the girls said that one of the men wag one of those in the house at the time of the murder, and the landlady checked her. The gir! then said that the man looked like him. The first recognition was from the corridor. After some further informal conversation it waa decided to adjourn the inquest in the Water street case until three o'clock on Friday at the Coroner's office. Tn the William street case, Coroner Connery, on Monday evening, took some additional evidence John Barrouse, a seaman was taken from a ship bound for Trieste, on sus picion of being cne of the parties in Mr. Vincent’s saloon on the night of bis murder. Coroner Connery took testi- jony as follows: — in Barrouse deposed—tT live at John Edwards’, x4 street, and any now engaged on board a ship boun ; Ihave been in Meyer's dance house, Nos. 98 and 100 James street; Ihave not been in Water street since I have been here; I kuow nothing avout the Water or William street murders, Joveph Ceragolia, the boy who said he saw the parties sitting in the saloon, was here sent for and shown pri soner, John Barrouse. He said he was about the size of the man sitting in the saloon, but as his back was turned to him at the time he could not recognise him. Charles Barnes testified that he lived in the same house with Barrouse ; that he left between 8 and 9 o'clock a day morning; Rarrouse said ho was in company with those who committed the murder, and left before it occurred one was a tall man with a foreign complexion; they were all talking with the people of the house about the murder in William streot; the next day after the murder Barronse art he had drank a glass together; Barrouse i i enid it; this fee! toward Barrouse. Edwarde testified that he was the proprietor of the house where Barronse boarded; he did not hear Barrouse speak of the murder, but heard that he said he was in company with those who committed it ten minutes before Barrouse waa thereupen committed to the cells of the Fourth ward station hoose forthe night. These cells aro totally unfit for the babitatioh of a human being. They ‘are in & damp cellar and the stench t# intolerable. In the morning was taken to the General Snperinten. dent’s office and Hilton was brought in the room. Mr. Hilton, however, said that Barrouse was not in the saloon on the night of the murder, Barrouse denies that he murderer. a Tar Daxorns any Trrats or CANAL Naviga- nox—Twa Mowrescaa Maner.—Tho Lyons Republican says the canal at Montezuma is ina sad Plight and that there is but little prospeot that navigation will be entirely romnmed thie season.
