For some time past numerous complaints have been made to the Mayor respecting the large number of for- tane tellers and clairvoyants who infest the city, asking that they be arrested. The matter was accordingly.put in the bands of Sergeants Croft and Birney day before yes- terday, who at once commenced the good work. The worst feature in the businces of these witeherafts was that they were becoming notorious and known to bedoing alarge amount of business as well asevil. The clair- yoyants were, however, not classed with the fortune tellers, their humbug being of a different character. ‘The first visit made was by Birney on Thursday last to the house of Mrs. Harris, No. 8 West Nineteenth street, On inquiring for the oracle he was conducted into a second story room; off this was a closet in which she had to get up inspiration. Fifty cents was the fee, which was paxt, and the Sergeant gat as demurely as a young maiden to hear the revelations. He was soon surprised to hear that he would have two wives and was beget A om to Bu. rope; he had lost money recently, but would recover it. Mrs. H. then informed the Sergeant that there was Leger else under ordinary circumstances remaining Ww be 4 but he might ask her two more questions. “Well,” says Birney, “tell me of a lucky number in a Ty. “Ob, Lalways have fifty cents extra for answering such questions as that,” replied the me. Sergeant—Then tell me of a lucky number in a policy. Mrs, H.—For that I must have twenty-five cents. “Weil,” says Birney, “tell me where the stolen pro- perty is secreted ?” is “oh you must pay me two dollars for that,” replied rs ‘The Sergeant then intimated that he would like to be introduced to a young or married lady, and was told that for such a privilege he ust pay ve ddllars Finally, Mrs. Harris agr to make the Sergeant quainted, the remigtons afternoon, with a beautiful young irl, aged sixteen, with black eyes, wealthy, and of rare ots She said she had a list of about twenty rare beauties awaiting chances. Mrs. H. also had acharm against danger, for the small sum of two dollars; and a love powder for one dollar. The latter was of wonderful efficacy, and the least grain of it, dropped on a lady’s dress, would cause her to immediately fall in the Ser- geant's arm: y Birney having read the recipe for love powders in Dr. Bland’s books seized in Nassau street a few days ago, con- cluded be woukl not invest a dollar in that preparation, and after a few more questions took his departure, Jeaving the sorcerer in the dark as to his purpose. The Sergeant, on entering this crib, thought he saw some other parties besides the Madame and the girl who attended the door. The room he was ushered into was a miserable, fithy looking abode. The bed in the room contained several us, who were entirely enveloped in the bed clothes. The 3 , While telling all this trash, wore a dark hood with a green veil over it and her face.

The oracle eat beside a table, dressed in black; he told ber that he did not want his fortune told, but a friend of his in waiting did. He would, however, like to ask one question, as to how long would he live? She replied “Righty six years.”” Birney said his friend outside had money stolen from him; ‘the lady, putting her hand into a little drawer under the table, pulled out glass stone as lar; am egg, and placing it into ber hand, exe , “Ob, yer yes, he's been robbed— lean get it for him.’ Birney then asked her how she told her fortune?

Her price she gaid was five dollars. The sergeant said he would like to have his fortune told; but no sooner had the Madame entered into the abnormal state than a warrant was in her lap. A slight tap on her shoulder by the officer brought ber into the normal state, and the Sergeant informed her of his visit. She appeared tobe greatly alarmed, as did also her husband, and a peregn represented to be her lawyer. She was, however, taken charge by Officer lwin, and escorted before the Mayor. ‘The doinicilo of Madame Hayes, No. 327 Broome street, was next visited, and pretty much the same nonsense was, gone through with as at the former places, She was placed under the protection of Officer Place. me York, the Gipsy palmist, was the next visit- d, residing at 134 Kighth avenne.

She told the officer that he had experienced a great deal of trouble, and that before long he would become a wealthy man, and own a large amount of property. The officer, however, was of the opinion that she was rather dilatory, and getting off his seat, went up to her and waked her up. r a few mi- nutes she appeared to be greatly excited, but seeing the shield, she cooled down and came to her senses, and ac- companied the officer to the City Hall. Madame Fleury was also arrested at No. 263 Broome etrret, and officer Davis took ber in charge. ‘At three o'clock they were brought separately before the Mayor, who questioned them as to how long they had been in the business, The mostof them had been engaged in the profession, as they termed it, for three years. Affidavits were made against all of them by Sergeants Birney and Croft, and in consideration of the facts set forth, the Mayor held several to bail, and others were commil ye Tombs.

God created the geas and the rivers as highways of communi cation, and gave man the faculties of serving himself by them, for uniting the inhabitants of distant countries, and for exchanging the products of ditferent countries an climes. The old countries find in distant regions new ele. ments of commerce and new fields for their activity; the new nations profit by the civilization of the old, by’ the lessons of their long experience, the work of centuries of thought and labor. Increased relations between nations augment their knowledge and power, destroy their pride, dissipate prejudices and tend to unite by mutual tole” rence and paternal love men who, under ail governments, in all climates, of all religions, and of all colors, have ome aud all the same Creator and Father. Within the last few months your Excellency has given more exten sion to the free navigation ot your rivers, by a conven- tion which secured to your country peace and friendship with the empire of Brazil. Aside from the interest which the sovereign of a great commercial nation takes in what- ‘ever tends to develope commerce, her Majesty will learn with great pleasure the ‘an termination of your last differences with Brazil. © position of that em- pire, bordering on all the States of the Platte river aod its tributaries, its vast resources and its wealth, secure for it an influence on the destiny of its neighbors. The acknowledged virtues and prudence of its Emperor furnish a reasonable assurance that during his reign—which, fortunately, in the natural course of ‘Ubings, may be long—the influence of his policy will be just, salutary and wholesome. At this happy moment, ben been assured by your prudence, I come it fulfilling jission of the Queen of England. The sovereign of an ‘old nation, who is geated on a firm throne, consecrated by time, and on whose vast dominions the sun never sets, sends a new meséage of congratulation and good will to your young, distant, flourishing and interesting nation, 80 much favored by the munificence of nature, so happy’ in ‘an industrious and tranquil population, and so fit to prosper in freedom, in industry and commerce. Across the vast Atlantic, and along the extended course of your majestic river, Queen Victoria extends to you, sir, the hand of cordial friendship, and invites you to conler a duratfe benefit on your country and to erect a monument to your own fame by eternally securing for Paraguay the friendship of Great Britain and free commerce with the whole world. President Lorgs replied :— Sm—I receive with high satisfaction from your hands the letter of her Majesty the Queen of England, by which she accredits your Excellency to a special mission near the government of this republic, The friendship of Great Britain is of immense value for this young nation; she will be grateful to hes Majesty the Queen, and improve on all occasions the good intelligence and commercial rela- tions which happily exist between the two nations, The correspondent of the Diario adds the following re- marks: — Tam told that at the moment the British Minister spoke of the influence which Braz! is necessarily to exercige in the States of the Platte river, Senor Lopez purposely directed his attention to some companies of infantry who were just drilling outside.

We find the following in the Moniteur Hayticn of the 8th of September:— After the capture of Samana, which heralded the speedy fall of Baez, a considerable number of the inhabitants of the eastern part, of the island took refuge at the Cape and Port de Paix, whence they came on to Port aa Prince. ‘When in June last Baoz quitted Santo Domingo, many other inhabitants of the East, aimongst whom were Generals Mora and Parmentier, withdrew to Curacao. Fighty-threc, after sending in their submission to the Em pror, reached Port au Prince on the 27th of last month b the Americau vcbooner John Bell, accompanied by M. ‘A. Noel, Cons} from Hayti at Curacao. Immediately ou their arrival they expressed their thanks to the Emperor ip the subjoined address. Tere follows the address, from which, as it has a politi. cal rignificance, we extract a single passage —'‘They also fee! that they have a duty to perform in not passing over in filence the gratitude which they owe towards the Haytie ho this capital, lavishing uj Majesty, during their rn in said island, all sorts of consolation and assistance, fulfilling with zeal and digni- ty the honorable functions which it had pleased bis Ma- Jjesty to confide to him, and showing favor to the unfor- twnate emigrants who had taken refuge there”? The Moniteur then proceeds to announce that Generals Mora and Parmentier had been made commanders of the Imperial and Military Order of St. Faustian, and officers of the Imperial Order of the Legion of Honor, and that M. Adolphe Nocl. Consul of Hayti at Curacoa, had beep made Chevalier of the last named Urder. They were decorated on the 7th.

It is generally understood that the invitation ho gave to the Czar of all the Russias has been accepted, and that Alexander will come to Paris early im the spring.
