Tho defendant is lessee of the State Prison, and the g for some time # Short distance ‘ Governor, on the ground of mismanagement of tho insti- tution and general iil-treatment of the convicts, app'ied for the appointment of a receiver. Judge McKinstry con- etudes:—** If, however, there are at this time, no icgally constituted ofiicers or agents of the State authorized to take charge of the prisoners, it is the misfortune of the case. I shall not undertake to supply the omission to discharge a moral and political obligation which the con- stitution devolves upon the Logisiature, ‘The agents 1 might select would fill their stations indefnitely de- pendent upon some future action of the law making power. Ican conceive no worse usurpation than for a jndge, by a provisional order, thus to assume the entire Mavagement and control of a matter completely outside his appropriate functions. It were betfir that hun- @reds of criminals should escape punish nent than that he should assume a jurisdiction to which he has no claim. From the effect of an unconstitutional act of the Legisla- ture the citizen may appeal to the courts; but for the in- sidions encroachments, or the tyrannical exercise of poli- tical powers by the judiciary, there is no redress save by revolution.

Excitement Against President Monlt’s Government—Indian Depredations—Trade Report, de. At Copiapo the friends of Gallo, to the number ¢ forty, attempted, after committing some excesses, to seize the cars of the Copiapo Railroad, at Pabellon, but the Prefect, at the head of the military, scattered thom. These movements had created a good deal of uneasiness in the public mind, and show that there is yet a good deal of enmity to be appeased against the government of President Montt. The Indians still continuing their depredatioas in Avanco, it is proposed to erect a new province in the heart of their country, and to offer inducements for German and other immigrants to people itas a bulwark against the savages. It is also proposed to divide Coquimbo into two provinces, one to be called Ovalle. Buriness had not been very flourishing in Valparaiso the preceding two weeks. The market was pretty woll stocked with goods, English and American gray and fino white shirtings and fine prints only being in demand. Flour is held at $4 06 to $4 25, six months. Barley, $2 623, per fanega. Hides lively at good prices, mostly taken for the United States. Rice—Stock large and prices tending downward. Nitrate of soda—Reflned, $225 cash. Copper, in bars, $18. Freights have slightly advanced, toupage being scarce; charters for England and the Continent from the coast at £3 to £3 és. Exchange on England, 4434 to 45, siaty days; on United States, 8 to 9 per cent premium. Events have taken place which show that the revolu- tionary spirit is not yet quenched in the republic. On the 19th of August an aitompt was made at the artillery bar- rack of Santiago by a sergeant and a few men, who seized the olficer of the guard, liberated the prisoners, and en- deavored to induce the soldiers to muthhy. The attempt was unsuccessful; the officer, being liberated, headed his forces who remaived faithful, aud, iv an attack on the ser- geant’s party, their ringleader was shot dead. The part then fled; nine were shovtly after captured, and two sol- diers who had taken part in the mutiny were shot the fol- owing day. This movement would scarcely have deserved notice did not other events, happening aimost simultaneously in different parts of the republic, show that the spirit of revolution, if not strong, is at least widely spread over the antry. ‘A revoit has been discovered in Constitution, an insurrection of prisoners in one of the southern pro- yinces has taken place, and an attempt was made to seizo the wagons of the Copiapo Railroad at Pabellon, Jn view of this unsettled state of affairs the President has asked from Congress an extension w the Ist of No- vember, 1860, of the extraordinary powers he at present holds, and after somo discussion it has been granted. ‘This me: is spoken of very cautiously by the press. tablish iwo new provinces—one in ,and the other in the north to be about ‘A change of ministry is spoken of after the termination of the session of Congress.

Hi ‘ellency the President of the republic awaits the arrival of some information he has found requisite, in crder to prononnee his decision as arbiter in several ques- tions between Ecuador and New Granada, The Minister declares that “to the enlightened and friendly spirit of the Charge d’Affairs of his Majesty the Vmperor of the French is due the satisfactory settlement of several difficulties.” A treaty of extradition is at present in negotiation be- tween Chile and France, and will complete the regularity of the extensive relations which bind the two countries. Several arrangements are still pending between goyern- ment und the Spanish Legation, having been suspended ne account of the bad heaitn of the resident Minister in Chile. ‘The Minister recommends the speedy sanction of the treaty of friendship, navigation and commerce between Chile and Belginm. ‘Tho representatives of Austria, Sardinia, Spain, United States, France and England have presented several claims ju favor of citizens of their respective countries, who de- niand indemnification for the losses sustained in conse- quence of the disorder committed by the government vcops Anring the late revolution, Government has com- missioned oue of the judges of the Supreme Court to in- vestigate the proofs on which these claims rest; and, this Having been done already, government prepares to give this delleate pomt due gonsideration, ssity of regularizing the action of the consular to render effective the protection of our coun- trymen ad, and fix the duties which Consuls are enti- sled to, isevery day more evident. These projects of ‘aw Lave been approved by the Senate, but are still pend- ng in the Cham.er of Deputies, and the Minister urgently recommends their despatch. Peeides the settlement of tho claims on the brig Maco- n and the whaler Franklin, several other important ions have been debated between government and the Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the United Stat One ‘of them arises from the protection afforded by the Amoricay, Consul in Valparaiso to several political mnd- ers, and the subsequent events which terminated in the delivery of the prisoners and the aunulment of the Com- sul'S patent, ‘the facta having been submitted to the consideration of the American Minister, the replacement of the American r insisted on, and the Consul in his post is no to jis Tindited tection fo the heii bie ais jhim and his family throug] mi under lefiieer who entered the Consul's house on the 2d of March. | Another of the questions debated between government and the United States legation is that of the American brig [Towasend Jones.

These events were very much dis! on being trans- ‘mitted to the American Minister, who has demanded am- ple indemnification for the in, Government has ed itsel! to the rectification of the facts. In the first case justice is undeniably on government's side, and the most respectable portion of the American citizens resident in Valparaiso publicly disapproved the Consul’s conduct, declaring that he had exceeded bis, au- sharky, since, according to international law, # simple consular agent does uot enjoy any such immunities. Besides whiz, government in its conduct has only fol- lowed the doctrines observed by the United States, and sanctioned by them in different treaties with other Powers, 48 may be ‘seen in the treaty with Great Britain in 1794, article twelve, and in that of 1815, article four ; with Sweden in 1806, article five, and im 1827, article thirteen; also with Greece in 1837, article twelve. Tn the recond case all measures were carefully calcula. ted s@ as not to occasion any loss or damage to the cargo, or in any way offend the American nation. There ik therefore every reason to expect that both questions will be satisfactorily settled. BOLIVIA.

Tt appears that Guayaquil is now virtually in possession of his fleet, the Commander of the Ecuadorian troops, General Franco, baving retired with them, in accordance with an agreement with the Peruvian Admiral, to the Pueblo of Daule; and even the civil government has done the same thing.

Nothing definite has been received in regard tu the recent attack on the Santa Fe mail, Private advices were received this morning, overland from California, with dates to the 17th ult. The excite ment growing out of the death of Broderick was increas. ing hourly, and apprehensions are entertained that it may lend to other and serious difficulties. The Post Office Department has changed schedule m the departure of the mails from this city to New York. Ia stead of leaving at four and a half and six o’elock in the morning a8 at present, they will leave at six and a hal and eight and a half o’clock, reaching New York at six and ten in the evening, ‘The President returned to this city this morning. If the intelligence in regard to the attack on Browns ville, Texas, turns out to be correct, General Twiggs, who is in command of the department of Texas, willdespatch a large force of troops there to protect our citizens against apy future attack, and if the outlaws can be caught who perpetrated the recent outrages, he will make short work of them.

ROWDY!SM AGAIN TRICUMPHANT—CITIZENS DRIVEN FROM THE POLLS, ETC, Barrimorg, Oct. 12, 1859. The municipal election for the City Council took place y. There was a large turn out of rowdies as well as At many of the ward polling places the windows were blocked by rowdics against all naturalized voters, and intimidation and even vioieuce were resorted to. The police, with very few exceptions, failed to do their duty or to carry out the instructions of the Mayor. The Mayor's office was thronged with delegation reformers, making complaints of the inefficency of the police. ‘The vote in the wards as far as received is as follows:— Wards. Reform.

In this ward most of the respectable voters were maitreated, and consequently the triumph is a great one. ‘There is no return from the Twentieth ward, and it is reported the ballot box was smashed. The result shows that the naturalized citizens were Imost entirely excluded from the polls; but, notwith withstanding this, the reformers carry seven wards. With two or three exceptions, the most objectionable candidates are defeated. There is a vast improvementiin the character of the new Council. The Thirteenth ward reformers endorsed the American nominee, and claim him as a reformer. ‘The friends of reform are greatly encouraged, and hope to ach eve a complete triumph in the State electign Leaving out the Twentieth ward, shows that the Ameri cans have only 387 majority, while they had 19,000 in the last Mayor’s election. But littie more than half the vote of the city was polled. In the latter part of the day there was considerabiy more violence and intimidation at the polls than during the morning. In the Ninth ward the reformers were driven off, and at about three o’clock their candidate withdrew in disgust. In the Twentieth ward there was a great deal of violence during the afternoon. Mr. Frush, of the firm of Frush & Spyder, was severely beaten, and had his cheek bone crushed in. Notwithstanding the owdies, however, the reformers have done nobly,and Dut for the violence ant illegal voting, would undoubted. ly have swept the city. The Florida at Savannah.

A novel speciality in the multifarious amusements of the metropolis was introduced last night at the French theatre by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Drayton, two excellent artists, whose fame had preceded them on this side of the Atlantic, Mr. Draytop, although American by birth, has spent nearly ali his life abroad, having been educated at the Paris Conservatoire, and made his début in the Loudon Opera houses. Mrs. Drayton is an English singer of the best and most thorong! hocl. So much for the artistic aims of the Draytens. W, as to their speciality. They istained Jast night the ent weight of two musical pieces, and did it admirably well. The first ‘effort of the ening was a one act play, haif English operetta and half French vaudeville, called “Don’t Judge by Ap- pearances.”” The plot is taken from an okt French play; it is go very slight’ that a description would hardly inte- rest any one. The words are Mr. Drayton’s, and the mu- sic composed by Edward Loder. The latter is not altoge- ther original, but is generally pleasing. Mr, and Mrs. Drayton ave each a good song and one very protty duet. The second piece was a French comic opera, anglicized by Mr. Drayton, and entitled “Diamond Cut Diamond.’” The music is by Grisar, who writes better than Loder. This piece is very pleasant, the situations are amusing, the music light, sparkling and exceedingly agreeable. It is done in the best school of French comic opera; that. that is a good school we weed not say. The audience was pleased with both pieces, but especially delighted with the jast. Inthe strict sense of the term they are not what Mr. Drayton calls them—the illustrations of proverbs— but that is a matter of no great cousequence, ‘Ihe performers made a clear and decided success. Mrs. Drayton is an excellent artist, a good singer and a capital actress. She was equally clever asthe Marchioness of the ancien régime and the soubrette of to-day. Her voice is a mezzo soprano of medium power and fair quality. er method is, as We haye said already, thoroughly Eng- lish, and her execution is admirable. “Mr. Dray ton has » high resonant bags baritono voice, full, powerful and even. throughput its register. We bave rarcly heard a moro agreeabie organ, or one under more perfect control. Joined with this voice and lent schoo!, Mr. Drayton bas a tine, dashing, manty stage presence, and a spirited style of acting which eugages the attention of the audience at on In the first piece he was a little too prononcé for so small a theatre as this; but “in the second he was toned down and played exceedingly well. The audieace, which inclnaed many artists, amatours and connoisseurs, scomed especially elighted with the performance. At the end, Mr. ard Mrs, Drayton were catled for and received with the greatest enthusiasm. Mr. Drayton addressed the nee briefly, saying that he had prepared himself hin case he should be called upon to make one, mth of his reception had quite disarrauged his preconceived ideas, and scattered the words so wideyy that they could not be collected.
