By the arrival of the steamer Tennessee at New Orleans, we have dates from Vera Cruz to the 7th inst. The despatch is brief, but important. The nominal government of Zuloaga appears to have been in the throes of dissolution. Gen. Miramon had been twice defeated, and Echeagaray had triumphed at Puebla Nacional. At the capital, Zoloaga had imposed a forced loan upon foreigners, and was suppressing the newspapers. We bave advices from Havana to the 10th inst. ‘Trade was dull, but the health of the city was very 00d. ‘ By the arrival of the steamship Star of the West, from Aspinwail,on Saturday, we have news from Utah, California and Central and South America. ‘The letters of our correspondents, published this morving, give full details, The Star ofthe West brought nearly a million and abalf in treasure. The yield of gold in California continued satisfactory, and the shipments so far this year are somewhat in excess of those for the corres- ponding period of last year. The crops promised an abundant yield. Commercial affairs remained about the same as previously reported, except that liquors had materially declined in price. The reports re- garding the newly discovered gold mines in the Bri- tish possessions had been verified in every partien- lar. Some three thousand persons had already left California for the diggings, and large numbers were preparing to follow them, Intelligence had been received frem Capt. Stone’s surveying party in Sonora, thas relieving the apprehensions felt con- * over and above the $37,000,000 estimated by the cerning their safety. The Governor of Sonora had expressed himself unfavorable to the further pro- gress of the survey, and the party had suspended operations. The accounts from Central America are interest- ing. As usual, there are all sorts of rumors and re- ports with reference to the movements and designs of the Transit route people. Monsieur Belly ap- pears to be cock of the walk. One of the reports is to the effect that the old Transit route will be aban- doned, and that arrangements have been made by a Franco-English company for opening a road on the Costa Rica side of the San Juan river. The route will be entirely within Costa Rican territory, and under the protection of France and England. M. Belly is supposed to be the abettor of this scheme. Greytown was quiet, but a bad feoling existed between the natives and the crew of the Jamestown, on account of the proceedings of the for mer against Col. Kinney. It is said that the English at Greytown were preparing to resist an expected visit from Gen. Walker. ‘The intelligence from New Granada is mainly of a local character. The mail from Bogota failed to connect at Carthagena, and we are therefore with- out any reliable information respecting the fate of the CassHerran treaty. A report, however, pre- vailed at Carthagena that the New Granadian gov- ernment bad positively refused to recognise the ar- ticles of the treaty. Our correspondent in Valparaiso, writing on the Tut ultimo, furnishes some interesting facts from Chile in addition to the pews summary published in the Hexanp of yesterday morning. The case of the ship Sportsman was to be settled by the ran- i new boundary line between Chile and and when the limite of it were fixed the epable which would be shown at fault in the affair of the Sportsman would have to pay ail costs. The tolerant action of the Roman Catholic Archbishop cf Valparaiso in endeavoring to prevent the erection ofa small Protestant church, hed produced a good deal of excitement. A trip to the interior revealed the immense nataral wealth, agricultural and mine- ral possessed by the country, and the utter incom- petency of the natives to develope it. The export trade to Barope was firm, but still several native had suspended for a time. The annexed table shows the temperature of the atmosphere in this city during the past week, the range of the barometer, the variation of wind cur- rents, and the state of the weather at three periods during each day, viz.: at 9 A.

Traffic in horses is a business carried on to a great extent in this city, as it is necessarily in all large communities. Those who deal in horse flesh will God in another part of our paper a very interesting case tried before Judge Maynard, in the Marine Court, last Week, and decided by kaw on Batarday. The opinion of the Judge contains matters of law respecting the warranty of horses which should be generally known to sporting blades, fast men and “whips” in general. We have files from British Guiana dated at George- town on the 13th ultimo. Governor Woodhouse re- turned from a special diplomatic mission te Vene- zuela, on the 10th. The Court of Policy was in ses- sion, and still discussing the immigration from China or India question. The colonial finances were in a flourishing condition, but the late census shows a decrease of over eleven thousand in the population during a space of eix years. The weather was cloudy, but still rather dry for the good of the crops, The Georgetown (British Guiana) Gazette, of the th ultimo , noticing the return of Governor Wood- :—His Excellency found it impossible to effect the object of his mission to Vene. zuela,in consequence of the late revolution there, and the merely provisional powers of the present gov- the inte- reste of British subjects there, as there seems some chance of a rupture between ourselves and the re- house to the colony, ernment. He left the Tartar to pi public, in consequence of the republic having arrest- ed Monagas, the late President, while under the protection of the French and English Charges d'Af- faires, and came on to Martinique in a French steamer. From the latter place he came on in the royal mail steamer Prince. The extreme imclemency of the weather yesterday tended to check out door business. The alos of cotton were restricted to some 100 a 300 bales, without change in prices. A moderate business was done in flour, while prices were in the main unchanged, the lower grades ciosing aull. Wheat wes infair deummd,and firm for prime lots; while tbe eales (chiefly Western grown) em braced about 30,000 « 40,000 bushels, at prices given in another place. Corn sold at 66c. a 67c. for New Orleans mixed and 67c. a 70c. for Western do.; white Western, part to arrive, at 72c. a 74c.; white Southern at Téc. a 77c. and yellow Western at 760. a 763;c. Pork was lower with sales of mess at $17 a $17 25, closing atthe inside figure; and of prime at $14, with a tendency to jlower rates. The sales of sugars embraced about 500 hhds and 88 boxes, at full prices. Coffee was quiet. Freights were quite steady, while cogagements were moderate and rates were without change of moment. To Rotterdam, 3,000 bbls. rosin wero engaged at 2s. 9d. To Liverpoo!—Grain, flour and provisions were moderately taken. The Financial Crisis of the United States Government, The United States government has by this time got over all the difficalties which come time ago were its principal embarrassment. The Mormon war is at an end, and that without any bloodshedding, or unhappy collision. Peo- ple are at this time witnessing the last of the long protracted struggle of Kansas; in a short while it will be heard of no more. There is every prospect that the government of Great Britain will embrace the earliest oppertunity to apologize and grant reparation for the ab surd blunders of its naval officers in the West India eeas, in boarding United States vessels. As to Mexico and Central America, the only thing that can at present be done in their regard is to leave them to work out their own destiny; this they are doing. There remains, however, all these embarrassments overcome, another dif- ficulty of graver moment than any foreign ques- tion—the crisis in the government finances. This difficulty, so far from being settled, grows every day more troublesome and more difficult to settle. On Saturday last, Mr. Buchanan sent a mes- sage to Congress, earnestly urging upon that bedy the necessity of providing for the wants of the country before the adjournment, and stating that until the appropriation and private bills are passed, it will be impossible for him to say how much money will be needed, Secretary for the two first quarters of the ensuing fiseal year. It is possible that the delay to which the President referred may protract the session for several days. However this may be, one thing seems certain from the debates: Congress is going to persevere in the foolish and corrupt plan of raising money to supply the deficiency by means of loans. This is positively monstrous. It is absolutely unheard of that a government like that of the United States chouldrun into debt and contract loans in time of perfect peace. If there was a great war pending with England or France—if even it became necessary to carry on hostilities against any of the States of this continent, it would be reasonable and just that at least a portion of the cost of such military operations should be defrayed by loans. For the cost of war is obviously an unusal expense, and the gain to be derived from it will presumably be thared by the posterity of those who wage it, aswell as by the generation which carries it on. But for a government like that of this country to borrow money, in peace time, for the payment of its ordinary expenditures, and thus to throw their burthen on future genera- tione is, utterly absurd, and is only worthy of the imbecility and corrupt tendencies of the present Congress. Fortune has subjected Mr. Buchanan to the same ordeal through which Van Buren passed. He has inherited his troubles from his predecessors. The government deficit, which is the crowning embarrassment of his administration at the present crisis, is a legacy from Pierce and Fillmore. It is the fruit partly of the corrupt and imbecile extra- vagance into which the government was led during their Presidencies, and partly of the late revulsion, which, by destroying for a time the import trade of the country, took away from the government the revenue on which it had relied for support. How should it be met? There are but three ways in which a deficit springing from these causes and embarassing the government of the United States in time of peace can be met and repaired. The first is by an increase of customs duties. This is the na- tural and obvious course. Rightly or wrongly, it is the practice of this government to derive its chief support from the customs revenues: the rate of duties is notoriously based—not on any theory of protection or free trade—but on the wants of the government. When, therefore, those wants exceed that revenue, the natural and logical course to take is to increase these rates—to add to the dutiable list several arti- cles now on the free list, and to increase the duties now paid by dutiable articles. Any skil- ful statistician and economist could so remodel the tariff as to make it yield, with the present import trade. enough to support the government. This would be a plain, easy, consistent and honest way of mecting the difficulty. The second way in which the deficit could be overcome is by a direct tax. This to many minds would seem a clearer, fairer and more straightforward way of raising money than an inereare in the customs duties. The general advantages of direct taxation are notorious; in this instance, with the proper machinery, the amount necessary for the support of gov- ernment, and which the Congressional dema- gogues want to raise by loan, could be obtained without difficulty or delay and without being felt by the peopie. If, however, it were feared that it would be | tco evdden a departure from reutine to raise the whole sunt required by direct tax, a and it is artful dodges of the lobby that has ever been suggested from any quarter. We suspect, therefore, in pursuance of these reasonable and seasonable views and recommendations of the President, that the present session of Congress, which otherwise would have terminated to-day, will be prolonged for several days more; and we have no doubt that the results of the extension will be a saving to the treasury and the pockets of the people, though a dead loss to the spoils gamblers of the lobby. We like the pluck of “Old Buck,” as a man who sticks to his text. NEW YORK HEKALD, MONDAY, JUNE 14, 1858, Compromise between this scheme aod the moc: fiestion of tbe toriff might be adopted; th customs duties might be raised in such a man ner asto yield an increased revenue equal te half the deficit; while the other half might b: collected through a direct tax pressiag chiefl on any class which might be supposed to be i: any mearure exempt from the operation of th: increased duties. A scheme of this kind woul be likely to conciliate the eupport both of th: advocates of direct taxation aud of the suppor! ers of the customs duties; it could meet wit! Lo opposition, except trom the corrapt and im becile persons who are urging the contractio. of new loans. These are the only true modes by which the present embarrassment can be consistently and honestly met. This country has uo right toran in debt in time of profound peace; nor har the present generation any right to impose on posterity the obligation of paying debts con tracted solely for the benefit of the people of the preeent day. If the President has the bold nees to meet the pending emergency asit should be met, he will convene an extra session of Coa- gress, and will lay before it the ctate of the trearury, with euch historical account of the public financial movement as his experience well adapts him to prepare: he will show how the present deficiency originated, and will ap- portion to his predecescors and tothe merchants and banks each their proper ehare of responsi- bility for the circumstances now occurring; in a word he will explain how a government which bad « surplus of twenty millions only a few months ago now shows a deficit of eome thirty, and will call upon Congress to adopt one or other of the plans above suggested as the only ones which can meet the case with consisteacy, fairness and justice. Tf this be not done, the government will be a defaulter to its creditors in less than six months, and the whole country will be disgraced in the eyes of its sister nations. Tux Presment Sricks vo His Texr.—On Saturday last the President admonished Con- gress very plainly that they had better not be in too much of a hurry in closing up the ses- sicn—tbat the wants of the treasury must be provided for; but that the probable deficiency capnot be ascertained until the pending appro- priations and private biils, 4c., shall be finally passed. At all events it would be impossible for him to ascertain the additional means re. quired for the ensuing fiscal year before Mon- day (this day). The President also repeats the statement of his annual message, that except in extreme cases he is resolved not to approve apy bill which he cannot have the opportunity first deliberately to examine. This is right, the best check against the Turntow Weep anv THE Sovrnery Paciric Ran.roap—More “Srarisrics.””—The Rev. Thur- low Weed comes ont with a tremendous array of “statistics” againet the Southern Pacific Rail- road. He represents its costs and liabilities as amounting to the eplendid aggregate of thir- teen millions of dollars, and its assets as com- prehending sundry camels and Arabs, an Arte. | sian well or two, several volumes of reports of surveys, and a sandy desert. But why this dread- tul exposition from Thurlow Weed? We fear it 6 because this Southern Pacific Railroad Com- pany has not been able or willing to command five thousand dollars as a lobby fee for our Al- bany cotemporary. A fee of five thousand dol- lars would probably have produced a different array of “statistics.” Five thousand is the cash price of Thurlow’s “statistics.” That “free wool” business, for instance. For years and years Thurlow had been a stiff advocate in his ‘‘arguments” and “statistica” ef a protective tariff for the wool grower ; but, in 1857, a lobby fee of five thousand comes down from the Mas- eachusetts wool manufacturers, when, presto, the “arguments” and “statistics” of Thurlow are all turned in favor of “free wool.” Besides, if we are not mistaken, he is interested in an opposi- tion Pacific Railroad, in which the Central Railroad Company of New York are interested, and they may have come up to the honest Thurlow’s high water mark of $5,000. All his “arguments” and “statistics” are reducible to that figure. Five thousand is the mark. Tur Caxcemt Triat.—We understand that it is the purpose of the counsel for the defence in this case to bring forward to-day sufficient tes- timony to put to rest the evidence of the rag picker on the other side, impeaching the professional integrity of Mr. Blankman and the honesty of one of the jurors. This new featare in this case has already given it a very ex tended notoriety; and this day's proceedings will doubtless very much increase the public curiosity and interest in the matter. The general effect will, most probably, be a fuller developement of all the facts and circumstances affecting both sides of the case than we should otherwise obtain—which will be something, whatever may be the final upshot of the trial. Tiow. Jows P. Tate's Re-Evecriox,—As was generally expected, the New Hampshire Legis. latare have re-elected John P. {ale for another fall term in the United States Senate. Very well. Wale fillsa character in the Senate which is appreciated. His humor, wit, fun. drollery, and sometimes broad buffoonery, are very amusing, and occasionally afford a marked relief to the dull platitudes of the venerable old fogies of that eminent and honorable body. Better still, Hale never indulges in such epithets as “liar,” “coward,” “demagogue” and “thief,” against his colleagues of the chamber. He is rather a peacemaker than # disturber of the peace; and we must eny, that while we despise his political heresies, there are many things about Hale which we like. His weak point is the nigger but that, we suspect, is “all my eye and Betty Martin.” The nigger pays, and Tale uses him pretty much as Thurlow Weed docs his “statis- tics” on “free wool,” simply because he docs pay. On the score of the nigger, we dare say, Hale is an unconsionable hypocrite, and that if New Hompehire on the nigger question wore to get round to the windward Hale would soon be found as sound as a roach. As nature abhors a vacuum 60 does Hale abhor a minori- ty, and he is about half right; for, by the sublime doctrine of “popular sovereignty,” the right to the ernment, the is and all Es things belongs to the . Pom Me ie. Tur Taxpayers on THE Move.—The tax. payers, we perceive, are waking up to the necessity of organizing en independent party to protect themselves from the rogues and ras- cxls who sre plundering the treasury. The olowing document is being widely circulated among tbe leading property owners, and before jong the pames attached thereto will, we hope, represent the nucleus of a respectable and vower'u! perty, which, at the next election, will .urge all the Corporstion offices of their cor- rupt ard imbecile incumbenta :— Wo, the upcersigoed, taxpeyers of the city of Now York, ver g ¢csircus of @ cheng in the Goancial and other de- artmente of tbe city, ape krowing toe corrupt a3 lavish yrercitures iD al: tbe bureaus, row tosins upoe aud de- mene @ geveral change, as the taxes are increasing in @ aril retio, and uDiess the reckless manner in which the ficarces er¢ Cisbursed is checkec af cece, po doubt the cS. efece iaette apts seems i ‘> out ol "New Yor, deze t, 1888, Thia is moving in the right direction, and we rust that the gentlemen who eign this paper will not flag in their exertions to carry out the measure to fulfilment. Such a party is all that 8 required to bring about a radical reform in our monicipal government. We hope to see he names of all the thirty thousand taxpayers in the city attached to this paper before a month. Tux Mormon Exopvs.—It seems quite well settled that the Prophet Brigham is with his flocke, and herds, and harems, on his way to Mexco, There is one circumstance, however, which seems to have escaped notice. It does not appear tbat the Mexicans have been con- sulted about the matter, and they may not re- lish this accession to their population, and the Mormons may have to fight for their new bomer. So Young may yet bave uee for his “Destroying Angels” in a war for Zion. The Mexican troops, however, are not of the same material as General Johaston’s command, and the Mormons could manage them. The great trouble would be with the priests, who would etrongly resist any atftmpt to get up a new faith in what they consider their own preserve. The Mormons have still severe trials before them. Ti Wmow or Ges. Garses Brvort Con- arxss.—The widow of that distinguished soldier, Gen. Gaines, applied to the present Congress for a little pension of twelve hundred dollars a year, in consideration of the services rendered by her late husband to the country. The modesty of this application, in view of those services, is universally conceded in and out of Congress ; and yet the small beer retrenchment politicians of both houses have succeeded in cutting down the allowance to the yearly sum of six hundred dollars, whereby a saving of six hundred dollars has been made to the treasury of the United States. Such things are among the “cheese parings and candle end” savings of Congress; and yet these very economizers, who would waste a week to defeat the pension of a soldier’s widow, would, perhaps, gulp down, without wincing, a dozen railroad, land and other epoils jobs, amounting to millions of dollars, in the course of a single day. Such are the demagogue reformers of the present Congress. Tm Wouerr’s Powr Isvesication—A Mean Truxc.—We have always heretofore had @ good opinion of Mr. Haskin, but this Willett’s Point investigation, including all the facts, tes- timony and developements of the case, leaves him perfectly open to the charge of being a desperate and unscrupulous politician. As an affair tramped up for the overthrow of Collec- tor Schell, thie Willett’s Point investigation was mean thing—a very mean thing. We can make nothing else out of it, and we fear that Mr. Haskin in due time will discover that this is the interpretation by his constitaente. That's oll. Marsuar, Rrxpers ox Yacuwtivc.—The late Captain, now Marshal Rynders, has generally been considered a emart, sharp, cute, intelli- gent “b’hoy;” but, jndging from his recent experimental operations for the suppression of the slave trade, he is rather a green one. His seizure and overhauling of the yacht Wanderer has been eo very absurd, that he must have been instigated to those proceedings by a spirit of rivalry, excited by those bluff, rough and graff Britishers of the Styx and the Buzzard in the Gulf of Mexico. On the other hand, it is surmised that the late religious revival has left such an impression upon the mind of Marshal Rynders, (late Captain,) on account of his “manifold sins and transgressions,” that he does not know half the time what it is that is wanting. If the yacht Wanderer would take him on a short cruise, perhaps the sea air would bring him round all right and tight again. Who knows? Leaistative Connurrion ty PexNsytvaNta— According to the revelations of our Harrisburg correspondent, we may shortly expect a terri- ble legislative spoils, plunder, bribery and corruption explosion in Pennsylvania. A year or two ago the State canals, Xc., of that com monwealth, which cost her forty millions of dol- lars, and which were worth twenty or at least fifteen millions at the time of their sale, wore sold for seven millions. We are now informed that legislative bribery and corruption (& ia Wisconsin) did the business. If there be any truth in these rumors, let it be made known. Let us at least have as fall an exposition of the business as the honest portion of the Wisconsin Legislature brought out in reference to the late bribed and corrupted members of that body. Let us have all the facte. When the public are plundered, if they cannet recover the money, they derive some comfort from knowing who are the rogues. Snockine Conpuct or a Revivatsr.—One of the lights of the camp meetings and recent re- vivals, Mr. Chauncey Shaffer, has lately been guilty of the most extraordinary conduct, such as threatening to blow out a magistrate’s brains while on the bench. The culprit pleads chloro- form as his excuse ; but we all know that reli- gious insanity is the most dangerous of all forms of mental derangement, and perhaps Mr. Shaffer has not yet recovered from the great awakening of the spirit a month or two ago. Cold water, inside and out, with abstention from cbloreform, revivals and camp mectings, is the proper regimen for Mr. Shaffer. Morr Wonk ror THe Mavor.—Mayor Tiemann has done very well so far with hix crusade on the lottery policy dealers, He has wiped out the Sparta Academy institution of Georgia, but there are three or four more lotteries whose tickete are sold in this city—cstabliehments in Maryland, Kentucky and other States. He should send Sergeant Berney after them.
