Operations in the Interioy—Oppression of Foreigners—The Pure and a Protectorate—Santa Anna's Opinion of the Mexicans—1he Indians % the Field—Policy of the United States, England and France Towards Mexico—Spanish Intrigues and Cuba— Foreign Squadrons in the Gulf, dc. Rince the constitutional General, Degollado, took Guada- lajara, this government has been making great efforts to | attack i{, but has pot been able as yet to reach there with | their forces, as Degollade sent a force to check them at a | narrow pass where there is a bridge, several leagues this side of the city. We know that General Marquez, who commands the government troops, bas not been able to pass there, and that Genera! Miramon bas orders to pro- ceed to the command of the same troops again; but we know nothing of the particulars respecting the movements Of the beiligerents, because this government has lately Proh@ited thetr own papers in this city from publishing anythmg respecting them except what appears in the offi- cial paper. It is eaid, however, that the Pintos—the Bpeckled oF spotted colered people of the south—are on the Toad towarus this city in great numbers, under the com- mand of ason of Genera!

Kees, for dur people manage somehow always to get a greater share han others of the il! will of our Southern neighbors, both Spaniards and natives, as well as niggers and wild lodians. It must be confessed that the puros, or liberals, as they ail themse!ves, are more partial to us than to the Furo- peans i general, but not over-partial in their feelings towards us either, for we do not see that they beg us to extend a protectorate over them; while the Spamish party that is in power kere has been constantly at work to ob- fain a government of Spaniards, under a French protec tion, aud bot parties know—as well as every intelligent foreigner ts this country knows—that. they have gone to pieces, beyond the possibility of any Mexican beiug ever able to unite the fragments again. Santa anna told them 80 When he ran away the lust titne, and there could be no betier authority, for he knew his countrymen well, and had bad a longer experience at the head of public atfairs here than any other of them; besides, every intelligent foreigner, as well as uative also, knows tbat tt conid not De other for they have been gradually going to pieces ever smce heir independence, until they can hold to. gether no longer ne Spaniards, long before that epoch, had commenced revolotions here themselves, In 1810 ‘the Mexicans fol- towed in th track, and alter eleven years killing and destros ch. other's property, they both joined together again and made the couutry independent of Spain. Shortly after this they split again, and a law of expulsion was given against the Spaniards, most of whom their money, but many of whom returned again ort time, aid from 1821 the struggle has beeu between the Spanish party und the Mexicans, xed race (descendants of Sponiards and natives) divided ainongst themselves—some in favor of paniarde oF couservative party, and some in favor of the ‘Mexican party or Liberals. ' The te, however, of nearly all of them has been to ob: tain the spoils of office, which the agiotistas money speculators have always encouraged, as they bave always partaken of the greatest share of the public finance Tint there is nothing of it left, and the country in debt at Lome and abroad. Many of the native Indiaus who never took part in the civil strifes before are now tn arts also, some in favor of ‘the liberals, and some on their own account, aguinst the whites, each chief shooting some of his captives, according to his own ideas of right or wrong, and each party livt ‘on the people and churcl: property, while all industry an commerce are completely paraiyzed, and the foreigners, in ‘whose hands is the latter, are constantly appealing to their Tespective governments for protection aguinst abuses or for the payment of claims. Such a state of affairs, daily worse mstead of better, must inevitably bring a ereiga intervention soon from some quarter, and we are told here that it 1s not to come from our goverument. If our policy permitted it, we would do right in having nothing do with the couvtry, for we canact annex so -magy millions of colored people, mostly ignorant Indians, unless we desire a dissolution of the Union, which would soon follow. It would be unjust and imbuman to wish to drive them frow their own soil, for no other reazov thau Decause they have been enfurtunate im their atteapt to imitate our system of self govern ent.

The steamers Panama and Santa Cruz have arrived from | Victoria, bringing late news from Fraser river. The | mining news is not of much importance. ‘The following summary of intelligence has been commu- nicated to the Alta by Mr. Stover, a gentleman who bas lived several months in British Columbia:— Mr. Stover has been as far up as Bridge river, a branch of Fraser, ity miles ik Sry of Thompson. 100 people, work on Bridge river, and 100" a ath 04d, above the Four! tain.

All are anxiously ma to get provisions for winter by the Harrison river noe the 4th of November ice made on Bridge river one inch in thickness, 80 that the miners were unable to work the next day. ‘The Indians are getting short of provisions, and are robbin miners’ camps with alarming frequency ‘idge river miners say they can make from $5 to see as All along the bars on the upper Fraser the miners make from $3 to $6 per day. At Foster's bar there are but few men at work. They are sluicing night ana day. Port Dalles, atthe mouth of Thompson river, now con- joes from 25 to 30 log houses. There are about 10 people ere. ‘The weather for the past three weeks has been cold and wet. Mr. Stover found ou the mountains where he and his party crossed, about 30 miles above Fort Yale, con- sidcrabie snow. On the principal bars between Fort Yale and Fort Hope, miners, so tar as Mr. 8. was enabled to learn, were not doing as well as they bad done earlier in the season, ‘The steamer Maria, which ts the only boat that runs above the mouth of Harrison river, is unable to go above Murderer’s Bar, six miles below Fort Hope, nor can the Enterprise ascend Harrison river, a8 the water is now not over a foot in depth at that point. Mr. Stover estimates that less than 4,000 people out of all who went into the Fraser river country are now re- maining there, and a large majority of this number only stay there because they are upable to get away. ‘Some thirty six miners have sent a petition, signed oi by S, Mattingly, President, and T. Gavett, Secretary, dated ‘Zist Getober, at Mormon Bar, Fraser river, five miles above the mouth of Bridge river, to Gov. Douglas, repre. sebting as follows: L at within a cireuit of fifteen miles from 700 to 800 miuers are located, most ot them having claims on which they sre realizing Suflicient to pay a reasonable price for visions, ‘and are desirous of remaining here during the wi 2.

C. OSCANYAN. New York, Dec. 27, 1868. ‘Throat Diseases and Consumption. TO THE BDITOR OF THE HERALD, ‘The readiness with which your columns have always been open to the instruction ot the public in any question relating to health induces me to offer you some remarks on a subject at this season of peculiar interest. I allude to diseases of the throat and lungs, and their treatment by nitrate of silver, or lunar caustic, directly applied to the diseased surface. Our changing climate and irregular mode of life, and the vast diversity of constitutional power to resist those great causes of disease, bot, more than all other evils combined, injudicious marriages, insuring tubercular consumption to the offspring, will clearly render this ques- tion of the greatest possible interest to our people, and give the greatest facilities to those who, wickedly and empirically, or from too enthusiastic estimate of a chosen plan of preseribing for ‘these diseases, pursue their own hobbies, regurdiess of the cool aad dispassionate judgment of true science. Our citizens know that the treatment of these diseases by caustics has been advocated and enthusiastically pursued by two or three practitioners im this city for many years. And it is not to be supposed that party feeling has’ not entered into the discussion of 5 Merits; it has done 60, and in no common degree, having enlisted the talents of very emineut men on both sides of the Atlantic. The question bas been settled to the satisfaction of all candid men. Nitrate of silver, in solution, may be plied to the throat occasionally with benefit, in alteriog the condition of the diseased and con- gested membrane; but it cannot be injected into the lungs with any certainty that it will not pro- duce the most frightful symptoms, or death ivelf, That a sponge, attached to a@ whalebone probe, in some few instances after the individaal bas been trained to endure it, may be into the wind pipe and a few drops be lodged in that trunk and subse. quently fall into its greater branches as they ramify in the Jungs, Twill uot deny. Thave uever seen itdoue to my own Conviction, hough essayed by a hand and head claiming the largest éxpertebce; yet I believe it may, by great adroitness, patience and perseverence, possibly have Deen done. Bot to assert that it isa promiaing, safe aud reit- able remedy is not warranted by the observation and facts contributed by a vast majority of the profession in this country aud Kurope, Thopeio make the integrity with which this arucle is penued understood by the pubiie and admutied by all, Tam pot in any way taterested, either in the treatment of these diseases or a5 a partisan. | I have received the kindest treatment, and been offered the largest opportunity for proving the facility with which the sponge can be troduced, with its solution, into the wind. pipe, and the beneficial aud curative effects that follow ‘the treatment, by its original and most zealous advocaic, and I nave witnessed the injudicious and violent opposi- ton to thatgentieman and bis measures by very bitter penal enemies of my own: but candor demands that should, with them, warn my fellow citizens against it, as a hazardous and wneiticent measure. I have scen it tried on very dear friends—one of them in my own house, with my consent—and I am compelled to pronounes it not poo a ates to the patient, but utterly efficient in its results, The truth is, in all cases of tubercular consump- tion, (which either in the primary or the aft- vanced stage constitute a large proportion of those who demand this treatment,) there is aa in- herent deficiency of power in the constitution, pre- venting the great life giving changes of the air or the blood ‘as it passes through the lungs, and allowing the deposit of tubercles or those unorganized little cheesy bodies, which, when they soften an coughed up, constitute the malady called cobeutuption, or pthysis. Neither uitrate of silver, nor the great new remedy, hypo phosphate of lime, wil! heal these; by no possible means can .t be done but by raising the |ife power, by vitalizing exercise and rich oily food, often by aie and spirituous jiquors, and husbanding every atom ct animal heat by dapnels and thick sboes. As soon as the strength becomes equal to it, horscback exercise, riding for miles and miles daily on a rough cart or wi wd the healthful labor of a farm, will give the only chance of consolidating the tubercular cavities and raising the life power, 80 that the subject can eat and as. similate enough food—enough to mi more tubercle from being depos.ted in the lungs ‘The truth is, my dear sir, consumptives are not subjects for medical treatment but when it i necessary to smooth the path to the grave. If they are to be cured, it must be done by a reverent attention and strict submission to the laws of ¥fe—air, food, exercise and warmth, Tue highest poss ble condition of aaumal life must be cultivated, and all the exhausting passions kept in subjection: especially must intellectual pursuits be avoided. Lave condemued the injection of the lungs ta no measur. ed terms; let ine now give you my authority. Iu Janua ry, 1856, an experiment was instituted—with what bu manity your readers moy judge—on a man aiflicted with twhercular consumption it the Bellevue Hospital.

(Applause. ) Not ouly can Canada refer with pride to Cabot, De Levy, Montcalm and her other great men; sbe can quote also, with equal pride, those who had the glory of opposing them, but whose efforts not the less tended to the benefit of their country and to the work of butiding up Canada to be what she now 1s. Wolfe and Mont- calm sleep together under this soil, having shed their blood together ip hostility to each other, ‘but yet with thesame ef- fect upon the future of the country for the dominion of which they contended. And I have thought that the mingling of their blood on the same day and on the same soil, was prophetic of the Union which bad to come—the ‘union Detween Upper and Lower Canada. (Great cheering.) The people of this part of Canada, descended from France, have derived (rom that country her virtues, and not the vices which have been engrafted on her character by that revolution which a great writer has described as the “ suicide” of the last century. Not for Canada have been the devastating civil and foreign wars, the convulsions avd the despotisms which that revolution has brought vpon France. It to have been the mereiful pur- pose of Providence to avert these evils from Canada by the fortune of war. And the lagen 9 of Canada will found a uationality not exactly French, not exactly Kugtish, but Ca- nadian, a blending of the virtues of both countries, which may be destined, perhaps, to be more lasting than either, Cleimense cheering) I 1 do rejoice to see the Canadian, not French nor but the Canadian, pressing forward heart and ar to nieet the giorious future that awaits his country. (Cheers.) You will see this noble country become ere long the route of the carrying trade of the world, which, according to all past experience, is the next step to ‘the mastery of the world. This axiom in its operation brings me here to-day. You haye three great provinces which seem intended and destined by pature to be united. I speak uot of the political union of these provinces, with which I have nothing to do. But it seems to me your railroads want nationalizing: For instance, the other day I was at Halifax, and, as I told you before, I could not get to Quebec.’ (Lat ter.) Your Mayor has eloquently described the results whict will follow from a rail to the Pacific; but lot mo re- mind you that the first liak in thatchain is a railroad from Halifax to Quebec. The roads at preseut con- structed are less exclusively national than we could wish them to be. I do not find fault with the Canadians for that, There fs an old say a acer look a gift horse i the mouth,” and as the could not get thai outlet to the ocean which wouid have ‘suited thei best, they were right to take the best they could get. This 1s an old story, bat not the less oe and, nothing of the kind can lose by reiteration, here mpoken to-night will be re-echoed with fone nang elsewhere. The rail 7 agen east of Quebec is incom- plete, aud that to the westward merely a feeder route through foreign territory. Sach are my opinions, and the Halifax and Quebec railway seems to me to be the solution of the enigma. Some time ago, tt appeared to a number of gevticmen im England, practically acquainted with raii- Toads, that the period had arrived to take action with re- ference to this matter. You are already aware that we waited on the Colonial Minister and the Chan- cellor of the Exchequer, to ascertain the disposition of the govertment towards that project which had received the Approval of the various colonial legisiatures. Our succes was very gratifying. I should here po however, that Tam not here on a mission to or from cabinet minis- ters, but to represent men who waut to know what sup- port they may ex] for this euterprise at the present day, from the colenies. The newly organized company having represented to the ministers at home that the colo- nies had voted £29,000 each per annum to the imperial government, or to a Company representing it, for the con- Struction of the Quebec and lifax Rai'road, we said, «Recognize us as that company, and place it in'a position to carry Out the object in view.’ The ministers rep! in effect, «* Show us that the colonies still desire to ao ima and are still willing to give their guarantee.” passing of the provincial enactmeuts, however, * hard umes "’ have come over there provinces, as they have over other coentrie, and therefore the more necessary is it to ascertwn now, and deBnitely, for the satisfaction the minis- ters, the disposition of the colonies to full! thete offer by re-enacting the statutes already passed on the subject. have found the people in New Brunswick almost, I may siy quite, oapimous in favor of tue proposal.

The Baltimore Patriot says, it will be recollected bow fierce and unrelenting was the warfare—the internal quarrel—regarding Letoher. The Petersburg Convention, which brought him forth, exhibited irreparable dissatisfaction. It is positively known that the democratic nominee cannot carry the full strength of his party. The indications are almost certain that an opposition nomination will be made, and this nominee to be a liberal, conservative democrat. Under such circumstances, with proper unity, aud an approved standard bearer, with the democracy fragmented, we see no good reason why the opposition—or people's party of Virginia, if such it may be called—should not triumph.
