Wasuineton, July 11, 1858. ‘The administration, looking at the actual state of affairs in Mexico, deems the government of Zuloaga short lived. Senor Mata, representing Juarez in this country, is in Washington, and has had an interview with the President and Secretary of State. Though not received in the capacity of Minister from Mexico, ‘Gen. Robles is highiy esteemed, and should the ‘wheel of fortune bring Senor Mata in his place, ‘there will be a universal feeling of regret as regards the General personally and apart from political con- siderations. The administration seems to be in doubt as to whether, according to the constitution o Mexico, any one can be constitutionally Pre ident of that country who has not his govern- ment at the capital, and whether we can receive & Minister from any other than he who rules at the capital. This nice question is now under the con ‘sideration of the State Department. By orders from Monterey and the army of the ‘north in Mexico, I leara that Blanco has been appoint- ed second in command of the federal army under Doegollado, and bad commenced an attack on the city of Guadalajara on the 5th of June, with a force of about four thousand men. Arms and ammunition sent from New York to Vidaurri were at Brownsville, Texas. Viaaurri, not having the money to pay for the six thousand stand of arms, battery of artillery and ammunition purchased by his agent in New York, the wealthy citizens of the State of Nuevo Leon and Coahuila had patriotically guaranteed the payment, and the supplies would be forwarded. It is the intention of the constitutional party, ‘when they have defeated Zuloago’s government, to make either Queretaro or Aguas Calientes the seat of federal government, and thus destroy the centralizing power of the city of Mexico. Departure of the City of Baltimore. Hauirax, July 11, 1858. The screw steamship City of Baltimore having re. paired damages, sailed from this port at noon to- day (Sunday) for Liverpool.

The streets were flooded for half an hour so ‘as to be impassable. The wind blew a gale, uproot- ing trees and shattering chimneys and awnings. In the country, a few iniies from here, there was a ter- rific hail storm. Stones larger than hen’s eggs fell, doing considerable damage to the crops. Two miles below this city a vessel loaded with lumber was blown ashore. Hot Weawer at Boston. Boston, July 11, 1958.

The eacape of de Riviere has created considerable excitement in Hoboken, and during yesterday quite a number called at the Napoleon Hotel out of curiosity to see the place. Mr. Huncke no doubt did a much larger trade during the day than he has for some time past. Officer McDonongh still denies knowing the whereabouts of the Zouave, and deolares that be has not seen him since the time the officers from Jersey City came to arrest him. It is weil known that Riviere had no money further than the fifty dollars loaned nim by his French friend the first day he put up at Nay As he has not been able to make @ raise since, he is There can be no doubt but that he has gone far; however, should he have made off for good, it will be a blessing to Col. Blount, his wife and iter. Tt is said de Riviere has had one or two bills sent on from the South for payment, which he left pehind unsettled. Seven thonsand dollars is said to be a portion of his indebtedness; $1,500 to a party in New Orleans, and three or four hundred to several persons iy Mobile. Coi. Blount says that he cost him some $2,500, that he was compelled to pay out in Mobile. He says he is determined to follow up de Riviere, if he has to remain away from home two or He has given up all business, and will = to on gy one As the Gare sate im for larceny, in stealing his daughter's clothing, he will remain to aj fim’ aboold he be retaken and. held for trial. The retorn of the writ of habeas corpus on de Riviere ‘will be made this morning, but it is doubtful if his lawyer has seen de Riviere since his sudden de- pariure.

THE STATEN ISLANDERS IRATE—RUMORED INTENTION TO BARRICADE THE QUARANTINE WALLS—YELLOW FEVER FROM PORT AU PRINCE, BYC. ‘The arrival within a fow weeks of several cases of yel- Jow fever at Quarantine, has added fuel to the smoulder- ing flames of eumity which exist to an intense dogreo in the bearte of Staten Islanders againat that neceasary estab- Ushment. It was rumored very generally yesterday that the town authorities of Caastloton had constituted themselves @ Board of Health and had held a proliminary meeting on Saturday, at which it was decided that the soenes of 1856, when the Quarantine gate was barricaded by a high board fence, were again to be enacted; or, in other words, it is currently reported that the Supervisor and Justices of the town of Castloton—which officers con- stitute the Board of Health of country towns—have met for the purpose of passing ordinances which shall impede the Quarantine officers in discharging their dutios, by pro- viding that it shall be a penal offence for any person te come out of the Quarantine grounds into any part or upon apy portion of the town of Castleton. During the summer of 1856, when the port was threat- ened with the spread of pestilence, it will be remembered thas the property owners living near the grounds of the Marine Hospital drummed up their forces, rallied all handg, held an indignation meeting and petitioned the town officers to meet as a Board of Health and to pass ordi- nances which should lean towards cutting off all communi- cation between the town ard the Quarantine grounds, and especially which should prevent persons within the grounds coming outside the walls. The petition was heeded on the part of the Supervisor and Justices. Thoy met as a Board of Hoalth, appointed their healih officer, selected their counsel, and chose their constables and watebmen. They next proceeded to pasa restrictive ordi” mances, and among other things passed a resolution directing tbat the Quarantine gate sbould be made im- passable by erecting sround the same a high board fence. The fence was accordingly erected, and for a few days operated to cut off intercourse, much to the annoyance of the commercial interests of the port, to the hindrance of the Quaractine officers,and to the extrome amuse. ment of the boys and reporters, without the slightest bene- fit to the protection of the public, and without in the least couiributing to the argument in favor of removing Quar- autine, which last consideration, after all, was the real mainspring to the movement. The erection of this high board fence, with the hope of fencing the infection within tbe (Quarantine wails, was the merest farce imagipable. Every sensibie person knows the volatile charaster of the poison of infectious diseases; therefore, the sight of the barricade created much laugh- ter, and the parties who seriously thought the inhabitants on the outside would be rendered safer thereby, were made subjects of ridicule and contempt. The fence stood buta fow daya; it was demolished suddenly by @ band of ia- furiated captaivs and sailors. Ii is said that the authori ties of the town, having become ashamed of their non- sepse, were as much pleased at the demolition as any- doty, Had the Board of Health of the town of Castleton a right to pazs ordinances thus in conflict with the Quaran- tine institution, established by the Legislature by well defined etatutory provisions? During the barricade excite- mont this question was settled. Two persons who hai violated the ordinances of the Castieton Board of Health, Wore arrested and tried for the alleged offence before the Supreme Court. The result was, the prisoners were dis- cbarget on the ground that they had committed no offence ; ‘and this opinion was given, based upon the emphatic de- cision of the Judge, that neither the Onstleton Board of Health, nor any otber Board of Health, hed the power to epact an ordinance in conflict with the statutes giving power to and imposing duties upon the Health Officers of ‘the Port. ‘This decision for a time put an end to the excitement; robbed the Board of Health of the plea that thoro was stil] need of its sitting, and stopped the paneago of cash from the county treasury which went to pay for the time of the gentlemen who composed the sanitary body. Wilih this sad experience of 1860 before them, ft was scarcely to be expected that the barricade farce would again be played; but there is no tolling what the proper- ty holders who live near the Quarantine grounds will not do, with ‘he hopo of removing an establishment which detracts from the value of their real estate aud beautifully laid out lots.

Dramatic ond Musical Mn tters. The advent of Mr. and Mrs. Florence #¢ Wallack’s theatre was what Mr. Swiveller would call an “ ines timable boon” during the dullness of midsummer Mr. Florence is a cheerful, genial, dashing, rollick- ing son of the sod, but the pas must be given to the lady. We have plenty of pretty women who are bad actresses, and some good actresses who are either passé or who never were handsome. Either way it is the same thing. In Mrs. Florence we find a pretty woman who is likewise a good actress; one who sings well enough for the exigencies of the pieces d'occasion in which she appears, and who, for her choregraphic attainments alone, would be gladly received as pre- miere danseuse in & Mahometan paradise. As a comedienne Mrs, Florence is especially excellent. Her mirth is suggestive rather than broadly effec- tive. She has, what is rare with soubrettes on the English stage,a degree of reticent modesty, and gives the audience her good lines with point, but not with bluntness. It is pot necessary always to throw jokes at people as bullets are shot from a rifle, but few persons on the stage seem to have found that out. Mrs. Mlorence is one of the elect, and un- der favorable circumstances would make a furore. In England and France the fame and fortune of so fine an artist as Mrs, F. is secured by the authors, who write parts especially suited to the idiosyncra- cies of the reigning favorite in the theatre. It is thus that Dejazet, Doche, Rosse, Chéri in Paris, Charles Mathews, Robson, Buckstone, Celeste, Madam Vestris, Miss Woolgar, in London, made and sustained their great reputations and retained their hold upon the public. Mrs. Florence, on the contra- ry, played ina bad farce in the evening’s performance by which these remarks were suggested. She had several characters to sustain, several songs to sing, several dances to dance, without any apparent mo- tive or plot or basis for the work. There was a buy in buttons, by whom crockery was broken at incon- venient intervals,and a conventional old woman, who got into a passion with the boy in buttons, or with a rather rusty old man, and go filled up the time till Mrs. Florence haé changed her dress. The piece was so badly put together that it might as well have been commenced in the middle or at the end as in the beginning. This difficulty was conquered by Mrs. Florence, who acted with so much spirit as to make one forget for the moment the weakness and stupidity of the play. The summer season at Wailack’s has been success- ful, and we presume that Mr. and Mrs. Florence will remain there some time longer. They play this even- ing in “ Irish Assurance and Yankee Modesty.” The house is as cool as can be expected in this weather, and the punkas get up a breeze whenever it is re- quired. The summer concerts which will be commenced this evening at the Academy, promise to be the plea- santest entertainments in town. Under the direc- tion of Mr. Ullman’s locum tenens, the house has been fitted up asa Jardin d’éte with all adjuncts suitable tothe season. The parquette and stage have been arranged as a saloon for promenade, and & grand or- chestra, which includes the best soloists in the city, will occupy a raised platform. The programmes will include the best classical and popular music. The conductors will be Mesars. Musard and Anschutz, ‘There are plenty of excellent artists, vocal and ia- strumental, in the city,and unemployed at present, and their services will doubtless be called in requisi- tion, and with skilful management there is no rea- son why the Academy concerts should not result in profit to the manager as well as pleasure to the pub- lic. The prices are moderate enough for all. Resuming the practice of several previous seasons, Mr. Niblo has engaged a fine comedy company, and has given since Wednesday selections from the lighter works of the standard drama. Mr. Blake, Mr. Brougham, Mr. ©. Wheatleigh and Mr. A. H. Davenport, with Mrs. Blake and two young ladies bearing the rather extra sentimental names of Ada Clifton and Ida Ver non, have played in the “Heir at Law,” “Sketches in India,” &c., and a promenade concert has been given in the garden. The performances have Leen good and the audiences fair in number, weather considered. The play for this evening is “The Ri- vols.” Mr. Brougham’s “Columbus” is soon to be brought forward. The dramatic season at Barnum’s has been closed, and the saloon will be devoted for the present to the exhibitions of Mr. Wyman, the Wizard, who is highly recommended by the provincial press. The Bowery theatre will be opened this even- ing for a benefit to Mr. McKean Buchanan. Mr. Eddy, Mr. Robert Johnston, Mr. Chanfraa, and Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Holt are among the volun- teers. The bill is long and strong. At Wood's Buildings the colored opera is con- tinued every evening, with the popular panorama of the Hadson River. Bryants’ and Peel's Minstrels are taking a short summer recess, but will soon resume their concerts here at their former locations. Nearly all the theatres in the country are closed, and the prospects for the coming season are not con- sidered as remarkably brilliant. Among the Bug lish “stars” who will visit ua is Mr. James I.

Brevoort and Lefferts, of the Water Commis- sioners, being apprised of the fact,mate an ex | amination, and concluded that the bones of the entire animal were there, and have taken necessary precau- tions to prevent it from being carried away in pieces. Many of the parts of a similar fossil, found in Baise. | ly's pond some time previous, had been carried off by | the workmen and otiors, who: d them of great | value, and consequently kept them concealed. A guard has been placed over the remains now found, | and Le ea probably be exhumed during the pre- | sent wee Beppina From Vesseus Proxuo Ur on THe | Bracn.—A large quantity of bedding, cast-off cloth- | ing and provisions, last week floated upon the beach | near Bay Ridge. The discovery was made by Inspec- tor McClane, of the Eighth precinct police, who ob- served two German rag pickers loading a )andeart. Buspecting what they were about, he made an exam- ination and found their cart loaded with bedding, and among it a mattrass nearly as good as new ; a quantity of beef, w! had been carefully packed among the clothing. They ws out starting for Red Hook Point, inthe Twell rd, where they re- side. The residents of the neighbor!\ood soon gathered about im large numbers, and tho rag pickers were compelled to unload and bury the stuff up on the beach. The rag pickers were taken before the Mayor and reprimanded. The resi¢ents of the vicinity were greatly excited, as it was pari ly owing tothe bedding there. | and other matter thrown overboard from vessels at Quarantine some two years ago that caused yellow fever along shore. ‘ Seniovs Assauir py A PotrceMan.—On Friday night a man named John Lutz was arrested in At- lantic street near tbe ferry by officer MeLaughlin, of the First precinct, on the charge of drunkenness and disorderly conduct. The prisoner resisted and threw the officer down, and being a much larger and stronger man than the officer, the latter used his elnb, and succeeded in bringing him to the station house. Next morning the prisoner was brought be- fore Justice Coruwell to answer the charge, and pleaded not guilty, when the examination was postponed till Toesday morning. The prison: er’s friends, seeing his condition—having been badly beaten—took him before Justice Voor- hies’ and obtained warrant for the arrest of the officer. He was then conducted to the Military Garden, on Joralemon street, where he bas since lain in a precarious condition, as alleged, from the effects of the injuries sustained. On Saturday, Coroner Redding was summoned to take the injured man’s deposition, in which he says he was talking to a friend, when the officer jostled against him. Asking the officer what he did thst for he was told that he was drunk and then knocked down, twice. Although Lutz is badly soeset it was thought yea- terday that his hurts would not prove fatal.
