The Wreck of the Royal Charter. OPERATIONS OF THE DIVERS, BUT NO GOLD FOUND— HARROWING SOENES ON THE BREACH.

A similar story was told some six or seveu years ago, atter the wreck of a large steamer oif the Bailey Light, Hill of Howth. In iced, in that case the diver was made to de- scribe ome of the passengers as in the uct of litting glasses to their mou The lie was priated, and ob- circulation before it was contradicted, ountis in the present case equally destitue of foundation. ‘Iwo experienced divers, who came from Liverpool in the steamtug Fury, the property of Gibbs, Bright & Co., made a descent yerterday, and remained & cousiderabie time under the Water, but they saw no corpses beneath; neither did they find any gold; but they saw some copper’ ‘This morving they resumed’ their descents upon very favorable circumstances as regards weather aud the stato of the sea, They have discovered no bodies; but, up to one o'clock this afternoon, they had succeeded, with the assistance given them by men on board the steamtug, in raising about three tons of copper bars, These bars have uncergone some smelting, but are not in a finished state. There is a good deal @ silver mixed with the copper. At one o'clock the divers suspencled operations for a short rest and refresiment. They resumed atter about an hour's interval. Some additional articles of wearing apparel, with spara, &c., have been cast upon the beach. One or two canvass huts bave been erected on the remnants of masts, and in front of one of these such articles as bave names on them or would o.herwise serve for purposes of identification, are spread out in melancholy array. Amongst them are seven photographs, two of men, two. of ladies, two of children, aud one landscape. None of these have as yet been identified as portraits of individu- als whose friends have arrived at the scene of the wreck. ‘There is a stocking with the name “Jane Murray,” and another with the name ‘‘F. Davis’? upon it. There is a portion of a shirt, with the name ‘J. E. Smith,” and an- other with the name “‘R. Thornhill,’ followed by ‘the date 1846.” A large, coarse wrapper has the inscription “C. R. Ross, passenger, Royal Charter,” painted in black let- ters upon it. Ona piece of a sbirt, “E. Fenwick;” on another, ‘‘Jobn Lees, 1855.” On a’piece of a stocking, “T.

From Le Follet ond it After having been for some time Maver between summer and winter garb, we think we may now expect that tho cold weather has’ fairly got in, and therefore wo recommend to the notice of our readers gome new mate- rial which will be in vogue. Anew woollen fabric, with pattorngof flowors woven in, or biochces, will be very fashionable this winter. Reps antique, with black or brown grouud od all over with szrul! flowers in blue, pink, green, are alsoin great favor. This material 'y thick, and is aleo in stripes. One of the tol those dusigns is narrow drab stripes, with small bouquets of lilac-colored flowers between. Another is green siripes, with fompadour bouquets. There is aleoa new po. ‘hin, called the bombix, Geeyeyigr m= woollen poplin, but flacr, aud. inade. patterns are copios of the silks Present coason, We must algo mention a woollen material used for dressing gowns, which is both warmer and softer than anything thas yet appeared for this purpose, Rich plain or stiped silks, velvets, reps, moires antique, Lee gieme and rich silks in all colors, with nar- row stripes of black velvet woven in, are all much worn. For evening dress or for visits of ceremony silver fer maize, salmon and mauve are the favorite colors. Blask velvet is also worn for walking and visiting dresses. These are generally made in the redingote form, and trimmed down the front with three rows of buttons, sur- rounded by lace or black blonde, This trimming is the mort fashionable, Many silk dresses are made with plain skirts. They require a very good material, ani jat the skirt be long. Flounces are decidedly much leas worn in walking dress. Quiltes are no longer worn, but the front breadta is frequently ornamented with handsome passemsnteric, buttong, ribbon or vetvet trimmings. Platts of gimp, with a tasselfat cach side, decreasing ia size from the bot- tem to the waist, are very pretty. Trimmings to match aie made for the body and sleeves. We have seen an or- vament of this material resembling embroidery, mixod with hanging buttons, placed on one side only of the front of the skirts. Bands are again in favor, and sashes very wile and tied at the side in large bows. Wide fancy scarfs, with fringed ends, are used as sashes, Passo- menteric is @ trimming in very great. fayor just now, and almost eclipses braiding, bows and tassels. ‘There are several elegant novelties in bonneta, suitable for the change of weather, which we will now proceed to deseribe:— One very recherché is made of Diack velvet, trimmod with a plume of four white feathers. Tho ourtain of white tulle, with a rosette of black velvet covered with blonde, Tn the interior is a mixture of daisies in white and black velvet. ‘The strings of white ribbon, Another, of white royal velvet, with a scarf ofponceau velvet, the ends falling on each side and trimmed with fringe. The curtain of blonde. A ponveau velvet plait ornaments the inside. The strings aro whit A third, very simple, yet stylish, is of black velvet, and the front has a broad binding of groseille des Alpes. A small Chantilly violette is worn with this. In the interior @ bandeau to match the binding, with a bouquet of daisies, is placed. The color of the strings is also groscillo des Alpes. A fourth, more dressy than the last, is of white ribbed velvet. It has atrimming bordered with blonde hangin, in drapery on one side, whilst on the other it is finishe off by two white feathers, which partly fall over the front and join, with a large rose of rich color ornamenting the inside. ‘White strings. An clegant bonnet of Isley green velvet, with a plaited blonde fichu hanging over a tulle curtain, is very suitable for a dress occasion. Green and white feathers mixed trim the outside, and a spray of white laurcl the inside. Strings of white ribbon. ‘White crape bonnets aro only allowable now when bor- dered with a broad edging of bright colored velvet trimmed with black lace. For instance, a white crapo bonnet, bordered with mauvé velvet. ‘A chantilly fan- chon. 'The curtain is to match, and a bow, also of crape, edged with velvet, is placed at the side. White roses, without foliage, are arranged in the middle of this bow, and also on the edge of the bonnet, soas toform one bouquet inside and outside. Or a white crape bonnet may be edged with groseille velvet; then the flower (al- ways without leaves) is generally white and black. With blue, the flower would be white. Green of all shades is also used as a binding, and also black; with this, roses or poppies are worn. ‘ith Leghorn bonnets, feathors or wide velvet are used as trimmings. One we have seen had a very broad piece of black and pink velvet put across and plaited in three great plaits, covering the crown, and Lage, Sl two very wide and —— ends upon the curtain. 6 vel- yet is plain, without any lace. ‘The same ornaments may be made of violet velvet,on a dark green taffetas. The strings should always be of the same color as the bonnet, and not to match the trimmings. An extremely novel trimming, and one which we re- commend, is a Small bouquet of little feathers somewhat resembling a large thistle. It is formed with the tips of ostrich feathers, cut ordinarily of two shades—the centre of one and the edge of another. Three of these are suff- cient for a bonnet—two on the outside of the front and one on the interior, but ail three joining so.as to form one tuft. For the inside of bonnets a trimming formed of a ruche Of colored or black taffetas fnely pmked is very becom- tng: especially suitable for a morning bonnet.” This rucho is fuller at the top than the sides. They also make theso ruches white at the sides, and across the top of colored crape, matching the flowers or ribbons, e” burnous with seams continues to be the shape of the comfortable out-door costume worn this season, al- On tho whole the people in the neighborhood are report- country, to be intimately acquainted with that prince, and Tassure you that I really, deeply, and completely appre- ciated, from the moment I first knew him, his great qual ties and abilities; and there are men now’ who can bear witness to my having publicly and constantly stated what Ido here of those abilities and qualities when very few Foglishmen were acquainted with or bad an opportunity, like myeelf, of judging of them.

I cannot say anything upon the subject of China, which hag been touched upon to-night, because the information wo have is so incomplete. The instructions issued by the Jate government and written by me, those instructions which many of you must have read, because they have been published in the public prints, were not written in ‘any spirit of hostility to China, and never contemplated the events which have taken place, But at the same time itis fair to Mr. Bruce to say, that in sending public ser- ‘Vant to 80 great a distance that he could not appeal to the Fovernment at home upon any sudden sa lee Tleft Because, im with a wide discretion to his judgment, a judgment in which I had a very Breat confidences.

A painfut Hegre be rape ee ith Mr. legree of sympathy was exp wi . Belt, seedsman, Beggo market, Newcastle-on-Tyno, who has lost a son by the wreck of the Royal Charter. in the carly part of the year Mr Belt lot a son in Eogiand, the young man being drownei while bathing. He bad three sons in Australia, and as soon as the young men heard of the loss of their ‘brother they cast lots who should come home to England to comfort thelr mother. ‘The lot fell upon a fine young fellow,a sailor, and he took passage in the Royal Charter, and bas been lostin her. A pitman be- longing to Blyth, in Northumberland, went out to Aus- tralia afew years'ago. He took passage, and was return. ing home s comparatively rich man in the unfortanate ship. He sent a letter ashore at Queenstown telling his ‘wife to meet him at Newcastle on Thursday. The wife set off on her journey, but just to learn that a telegraphic message had arrived in Newcastle with the dreadful intel. lgence that the veel was lst, and that nearly every ono on board had perished. A poor old pitinan, named Rose- bury, living at Seaton Delaval, it was stated’ in Newcactle on Saturday last, lost two sons anda son-in-law by the wreck of the vessel; and it is feared that other north country pitmen who were expected home in the Royal Charter have perishod with her, An English M. P. Amongst the Yankees. {From the London Post, Oct, 31.] On Thureday last the opening lecture in connection with the Wigtown Mechanics’ Institute was delivered at Stir- ling, by Mr. James Caird, M. P.—Mr. Thomas Murray, President, in the chair. There was a large attendance of all clasaer. Mr. Camp, who, on rising, was much cheered, proceeded to speak of the convenience of America for the purpose of | emigration, its geographical position, its climate, and the rapid means of communication which’ now exist "between Creat Britain and the New World, and afterwards na rated very minutely the incidents of the voyage acr the Atlantic in the steamship Persia, Arriving at New Yoak, Mr. Caird feit very anxious to get ashore, and was inuch struck by the quéer appearance of the Americans. The Americans, being afree people, felt a pleasure in doing as they liked, and for this reaon some of the cus- toms which haat become obsolete in other couniries Were still retained among them. After noticing the hotel accommodation and other matters of a similar | nature about New York, Mr. Caird, proceeding on his journey, arrived at the Hudson river, famous for its ity. In this part of the country the scenery fell short of his expectation. He remarked’ general scarcity of verdure—the want of a real greon field, and the poorness of the trees. Spending a day at Sarotoza, he saw nothing worthy of notice, and proceeded northwards. After pass: ing through the wild, bleak eountry which lies on the boundary between the United States and British America, he reaohed the great St. Lawrence river. The river, baving s breadth of two milessand Montreal, with its tin: roofed houses, reflecting the brilliancy of the sun, situated onan island in the middie of it, presented, he eaid, a troly magnificent spectacle. In Montreal the accommo. dation was much the same as in an English town; Mon- troal itself, he thought, was destined to become an impor- tant city, and-would have been a better seat of govern- ment than Toronto. Speaking of the Vict ths St. Lawrence, which was constructed by Mr. R. henson and Mr. Jackson, he alluded to the deaths of Stephenson and Hruncl. He was indignant to think that while men of no note whatever—men who bad really never dove ai really great—were guddenly raised to the highest position in | this country. truly great mon, eave in the works | which they bad conceived and executed, havivg received | little notice while alive, were now likely to be forgotten alike by the nation they belonged to and the thousands w whom ‘they had been benefactors. (Cheers.) Passing through Toronto and Hamilton, Mr. Caird next arrived at Niagara, and proceeded to examine the Falls and the ‘which appeared to him the moet magnificent things {n nature. “In visiting the hot springs at Niagara he found the keeper thereof was a native of Aberdeen— indeed, said Mr. Caird, Scotchmen are very numerous ‘very successful and very much ted in every part of America. Ouanking ts kee i ot the wellteriak Kind of farme: were in district, “Man,” said the rs they keeper, ‘‘ther mecsrable fermers here; they dust scart the grun, it’s no very guid at ony rate, but they dust scart it.” (Laughter) Passing the St. Clare office, Detroit, where saw a State fair, i.¢., an agricultyral show, a curious feature of which ‘was the lady races, Mr. Caird hastened to Chicago, anxious to see the prairie country—the main object of his visit to America. Twenty years ago, he said, Chicago was bot an Indian village; now jt is a splendid city, having all the covveniences off civilization ; it is tho centre of more railways than London, and exports 100,- 000 bushels of wheat per day; and such Is the power of its shipping machinery 440 hashole até Wergiset at once. Speaking of the prairies, he said their altitude en- enres for them a mild temperature; they resemblo an im- menée open menfow; the soft fs uniform and fertile, and has no timber on it: in @ first crop it yields at an average u of India: sytem of Saran though the size round, far from diminishing, is greatly increasing, in order to’ cover the enormous amplitude of the skirts.’ ‘The collar pelerine, pointed behind, the hood in beavy material, but are still worn with the burnous of fancy woollen tissue in check, stripes or plaid, which are very fashionable in light colors, white forming the ground. The newest style is le with a deep flounce, with a heading. of the same material as the bur- nous, and edged with velvet, a small rouleau of velvet hiding the seams. A kind of burnous, or pardessus with sleeves, is made of black poult de-sole, formed of eight breadths in points. ‘The pointed collar is edged with a id of flat velvet. The large open pagoda sleeves are trimmed to match. Each por Piped with velvet, and the whole is bound with velvet. Another, also of silk, is made of four parts, open at Dottom, and fastened together with velvet ribbon, cut in deep pans, and five or seven acorns in passeménterie. ‘The large sleeves and pointed collar are trimmed with velvet. But shawls of all descriptions, produced by the taste and skill of our different manufacturers, are mostly in de- mand at present. The rich Indian shaw! is rivalled by the marvellous cheap productions. They are certainly hx alg but the Oriental style gives them much seeming value. After the cachemire, the woollen tissues in the Parisian style are much in demand.

Execution of pe mg Thornton, in St. se [From the St. Louis Democrat, Nov. 12.] ‘The last act in the terrible tragedy involving tie death of Joseph Charles, Esq., was performed yesterday after- noon at a quarter past three o'clock. Preparations for the execution were commenced at twelve o'clock, by Deputy Marshal Eves, who adjusted the rope around the beams, and put the trap door of the scaf- fold in its proper position. Every officer connected with the jail was besieged with persons askivg questions as to what time it would take place, &c., butno very definiio answer could be given. The friends of the condemned seemed anxious, if pos- sible, to exhaust all the time allowed by the sentence, in hopes that the Governor would change his mind, as it was understood that a despatch had been sent to him in tho morning, asking fora respite: ‘The moments were almost counted by the persons who had assembled in- side the jail yard to gratify their curiosity, until three o'clock, when the prisoner, supported on each side by one of the deputy marshals, descended the steps from the jail. Immediately behind him followed the reverend gentlemen "who bad ministered so faithfully to his epiritual wants during his confinement. On emerg- ing from the jail Thornton’ recognized two or three old acquaintances in the crowd, who stood eagerly watchi his approach. On seeing them a pleasant smile appear upgp his countenauce, and giving a gentle bow of hig head he passed on to the steps of the scalfold, which he ascended tore rapidly and vigorously than did any per: Fon accompanying him. On reaching the top of the scaf- fold he seated himself between the two clergymen, and looked areund bim as if desirous of seeing some oue he knew. The slightest tremor was not visible im his move- ments, and his conduct witerly astonished every person who witnessed it. He was asked by the Marshal if he had anything to say, and replied in the negative by shaking his head, He then declared himself ready, and stood upon a box placed upon the trap door. ‘The slightest quivering of a nerve could not be detected in him, even now when he saw the death Wwarragt which Mr. Cunningham heldin his hand, and was about fo read to him. ‘This being done, Deputy’ Marshal Eves proceeded to cover his face with a long white eap, while Mr. Cunningham pinioned his arms behind his back with a small cord. [The culprit was dressed in a brown cont and pantaloons, which he wore during the trial, and 8 pair of boots, which appeared almost new. Ho wore & heavy mustache, and had probably neglected shaving tor some time.] ‘The rope being adjusted, all the pagsons on the scatteld who had accompanied the prisoner stood buck, while ‘the clergyman read prayers; after which all was declared ready, and” at fourteen minutes past three e’clock the murderer of Joseph Gharless hung suspended betweon heaven and ‘earth. His neck was broken by the fall, although @ great many Persons thought life lurked and lingered in his body for more than seven minutes after. A very heavy breathing was distinctly heard for a few seconds, and his legs drat up and his arms twitched several times. In his struggles at one time his right hand selzed one of the planks of the scaffold, and we thought ho was about to attemp: to save himself’ thereby. But the lamp of life had beon extin- guished, and it was merely a motion of the museles which we saw. His stomach heaved once or twice during the time we heard the stifled breathing, Three physicians— Drs. Philips, Arneau and Whitmore—were in attendance, and after banging sixteen minutes he was pronounced by them to be dead, aud was cut down.

New and more conflicting difficulties have arisen since I last wrote you. Troops left yesterday for Saltillo to en- counter a band of robbers, said to number about 700, and composed of reactionaires and highwaymen, hoaded by a priest and lawyer, who are now on their way to besiege that city. They came from the State 6f Durango, and have been desolating everything on their way. They have destroyed and burned several trains of wagons, murdered the drivers, spreading terror and dismay throughout their whole course. Consequently their near approach to this city bas caused universal alarm, as nothing can be expected but repetition of the bellish scenes enacted elsewhere. ‘Thus far wo have been free fiom any occurrences of this nature, and, indeed, from all those borrorsof civil war with which the other sections of the republic have beea cursed. God grant that we may continue to remain so. A conducta left last week for Brownsville, taking some one hundred thousand do!lars, and was about to be at- tacked by another party of robbers on the road; and had it not been for the timely aud of an escort of citizens sen: to their assistance from this place, it undoubtedly would have been a gone case. Another conducta arrived this morning from Zacatecas with four hundred thousand dol- lars, and its director is afraid to leave unless he gets a competent escort. We are threatened on both sides by bands of robbers. God only knows how it will terminate although the present Governor is taking all necessary and energetic measures to surmount these numerous. diffi cultics. The lower classes experience much difficulty in obtaining their daily subsistance, and are driven almost by necessity to extreme and riotous measures. ‘The com plete stagnation of business, which is the unayoidable result of civil war, renders our situation traly lamentable. One of the greatest obstacles to the success of the liberal party is tho absurd ambition, the love of power, the desire to place themselves in the highest offices, with: out the necessary qualifications of intelligence, fitness and moral honesty, manifested by most of the numerous chiefs who compose the party. There are some honora- ble paorplices. I speak only of the majority. News from the interior is of the most cheering nature in behalf of the cause of the liberals—there being a com- plete division among the leaders of the Chureb party. A large number of officers and soldiers have come over to the ranks of the liberal forces. General Blanco is at- tacking Guanajuato, with a large force, and with all robability of success, and rumor states that Marquez, the 2 renege assassin, has been completely defeated at Gua- alajara. ‘The arms bought in the United States by Galindo for the government ot this State are stillin limbo at Browns- ville, and there they are likely to remain for some time to come, asthe finacial padres, (to wit, the Irish cliquo of speculators,)—who had complete control of Vidaur- ri, will offer no masses and send up no payers to deliver them@om their unhappy position; on the contrary, they are patching up pretended claims against the government for enormous amounts, placing attachments upon the pro- Pperty and doing all in their power to embarrass the pre- Sent administration. if some of the aforesaid clique should show themselves in this city, they might find themselves in @ werse state of limbo than the arms, as the present, Ro- vernment is fully determined not to be humbugged by this band of unscrupulous persons, as its predecessor notoriously was. THE LATE OUTBREAK AT VICTORIA, NORTH- ERN MEXICO. [From the New Orleans Picayune, Noy. 10.] slrdy trom Tasnpico, we havo adele from "Ut port yesterday from we have adv! om Girect, to the 19hult. : The new steamtug La Reforma arrived out on the 14th, and from the notice in the Prisma, seems to have given general satisfaction. ‘The principal subject of political excitement at Tampico, when the Mowell left, was ‘the conspiracy,” “outbreak’? or “revolution” at Victoria City, of which we had bricf mention by the last steamer frem the Rio Grande. A Tumors were in circulation, but they leave us as much in the dark as before as to the nature and origin of the movement; the more so that the Prisma saw fit at the last moment to suppress its own account, because, as it avers, “somo dates wore wantiug,” but, 'really, wo sus. pect, the government wished tohush the matter up. From this, and a comparison of the statements before us, it would appear that “the convicts,” so called, wore helped to liberty by the opposing party; that they afterwards became unmanageable, and, opposed in their depredations, finally or; themselves into. an armed band and proceeded to lay friend and foe alike un- der contribution. Several neighboring villages had been visited by them and plundered, besides Victoria City; and at last accounts they were making their way to the more thickly inhabited towns of the north. ‘Whatevor, however, was the nature of the affair, it seems to have created considerable alarm at Tampico. All the troops disposable there, and on the sea coast, were immediately sent up under the command of Colonel Garza, and at last accounts were cncemped in the vicinity of Vic- toria, where they were to await further instructions. Sub- Sequently, a park of artillery and a company of invalids ‘om the hospital were sent up as reinforcoments, from all which it would appear that the affair was one of ‘more than ordinary urgency. In an order of the day, announcing the defection of Vi- daurri, Gen. Degollado says:—‘The reaction have already raised the cry of joy at the rebellion of the leader of the North, believing that it will result in permanent confusion in our ranks. But in this they will find themselves mis- taken. Vidaurri’s defection will only purify the national cause, whilst his fall will prove a terrible lesson to aitors.” ‘The campaign proper, however, would seem to make no progress. The headquarters of the liberals was still at in Luis Potosi; noadvance had been made, nor do wo hear of any movement of importance whatever. THE TROUBLES IN BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS. [From the Brownsville Flag, Oot. 29.) We haye deemed it proper to review, in our extra of to- day, the occurrences of the past six weeks, 60 that, with a record of the same in their hands, our people hore and our friends elsewhere may be enabled to judge correctly ag to what we have suffered, what we may fear, and what we shall need for our own security and for the’ preserva- tion of American authority on this eide of the Rio Grande. It could hardly be expected that the long-continue1 war between Texas and Mexico, and between the latter and the United States, should not have left behind strong traces of bitterness which years upon years of habitually kind intercourse alone can obliterate. “A mutual distrust of every stranger whose past course was not well enough and favorably enough known to entitle him to confidence has constantly existed. Besides this—upon the inhabited boundary line between two countries, SR, where, ag in this instance, no. treaty of extradition exists—the escaped felons, the lawless and the idle would readily congregate for security and the ready exercise of their nefarious occupations. One of the sad results of the perpetual revolutions which have so long and so sadly undermined our noi; boring republic bas been the accumulation of an ‘die, vicious, depraved, ignorant and thicvish Population, known by the generic name of plador, who aro to be kept down only by force or fear. “These form usually the clase of peones, but escaped from peonage, become Ia: by profession, as much to be feared by the Mexican as by the American—as the runaway peon cannot be sent back to Mexico any more than the runaway slave reclaimed from Mexico. Tho former, course, if he thinks his master not too distant to find out where he is, will cross to the Americanside. So it is that Brownsville has had its five thousand inhabitants, when upon the census roll not over two thousand five hundred, wore lately to be found, while perhaps not three hundred of these were of Mexican ori Brownsville, too, since it ceased tohayve a garrison, has been and is simply commercial town. But thirty.four Americans by birth, old enough to bear arma, are to be found in tho place, and of naturalized citizens there are perbaps as many: yet, fre- quently there are more pelados in our streets than ten times ir number.

Our authorities have twice felt it necessary to ac. cept assistance of somo of the National Guards of that city, who have done us yeoman service. But it is assuredly a dangerous precedent to set, this of inviting in foreign troops to quell disturbances caused by men of the samo lineago with themselves. We havo found, but lately, to our bitter regret, that the moeo dis. persion of the band of robbers ouly adda to our insecurity and multiplies our dangers. We cannot expect these oxiliaries to remain long enough to pursue and punish the guilty, especially since they have been assembled to sue and punish the reactionaries of the interior, and are Baty awaiting marching orders.

Whether Cortinas was nt or not when these things were done, he led the ind who did them, and is responsible as well for these as for the murders which were committed, Why he did not do more is easily to be seen. Tho moment tho house robbing commenced, his men would get to drinking, and woula be unmanageable; he, therefore, desired first to kill all the Americans (the “Cringos,” as thoy call us), £0 a8 to put an end to resistance on. their part, adding as many of other nationalities as might take part with us, and then it would be safe to commence tho robbers of the town. Col. Migael Tigerina aud D. Agapito Longoria arrived in time to inform him thatinstead of aid- ing him, as he had hoped, probably, the civil and military authoriti of Matamoras would assist in pattiog him down. £0 he left, very reluctantly, as all. know, without le of regret for what he bad done either to D. Vivia- person. ‘The writer of Cortinas’ proclamation insinuates that Adolphus Glaveeke and a multitude of lawyers have form- eda “conclave’” to despoil him and other Moxicans of their lands. Mr.G. is a German, was living hero and married to a connexion of Cortina$ before the Mexican war; his large family of children have a Mexican mother, He bas a Jaw suit with his nearer connections, tho Tigeri- nas, about sofhe land; but with Cortinas’ branch of the family nope whatever. Nor are the lands of Dona Este- fana, the mother of Cortinas, nor of his immediate family, in litigation or threatened with any. There have been, it is true, some law suits for lands here, but all have been by Mexicaus, or those who have purchased from them— sometimes against Mexicans, sometimes against purcha- sers under them—and the Mexican has almost inva- riably prevailed. The only land dispute which has ever ox- cited much feeling here, is upon the claim of, Senara Ca- ‘vazos, a Mexican by birth and residence, to the town site of Brownsville and its environs and the defendants thereto, and to the suits of Busse & Hord, who claim under her, have nearly all been Americans or Euroj So far, her title has been sustained. Of the whole bandof ma- rauders, whose names have been made known tous, hardly one owns any lands. Some have cattle, but these they herd on the lands of others, their relations or friends, Why, then, should they prate about the inscecurity of their property? It is because they desire to invoke the sympatby of those Mexicans who do own lands in our part of Texas, some of whom reside on this and some on the other side of the river, and induce them either to take sides with Cortinas, or at least to witbhold their assistance to the band full of Americans who are on the Rio Grande and nearly two hundred miles from their fellow country- mep.

It is not enough that no injustice has been done, or that no one makes pretence of claim to his land; he fears the very name of a lawsuit. The landed proprietors living on this side of the river will not be co pee by such representations. Most of them ave friends and legal advisers, in whom they have con- fidence, and with w they have frequent intercourse. ‘They have been in our couris, and seen their course of procedure; have themselves been jurors or witnesses: know the fairness with which their causes are tried, and would far prefer ours to the courts of their parent country. But to those living on the other side, to whom our courts are strangers, American tribunals seem naught but a deep abyss into which they and their property would, by a suit ever 90 frivolous, be irrecoverably plungod. of Cortinas and his amanuensis was, in this proclamation, to present him as the champion of the land owners about to be wronged out of their property, as well az of those who in brawls had come out second best. As to the lawyers, out of ten or so in this city, not moro than two wore ever employed by Mr. Glavecke, and most of the rest arc, or have been at times, employed against him; and it would be ridiculous to suppose that any coali- tion other than that between lawyer and client has ever existed between Glavecko and his lawyers. ‘The foray of ‘was well prepared for the success it met It is now known that, besides those he brought with him—eighty or side of the city. tertained some forty of them there, kee] ing their horses; he made extensive arms, and recruited largely from the in bad re- pute on both sides of theriver.

Many of our citi- zens have sent their families off to ‘‘the States; others ‘have moved to Matamoras; those who do not live in the very centre of the barricades, do not sleep in their own houses; but are huddled together at at in warehouses, and men who never before have handled a gun or a pis- tol, go day and night with the one in their hands and the other belte¢ to them. Thus we haye lived for the last month—every day growing woree. Our enemy is con- stantly augmenting his strength, and ours growing weak- er. The attack on him upon Monday last has demonstrat- ed his invulnerability to any thing less than a thorough chmpaign by a large body of experienced rangers. The chaparel is to him an endless fortress; every footpath in it is known to him, and while ho can evade pursuit, he can at a moment pounce upon an unsuspecting opponent. ‘We repeat what we have herotofore said, that thero ia no town in the United States which can approach our si- tuation in loneliness and exposure to danger. Our small American and naturalized European population; the largo portion of our population who do not sympathize with us; our laying alongside of a foreign city, who ina war of races would necessarily be against us to the bitter end, and the uninhabited one handred and sixty miles which intervene between us and the settlements on the Nueces, make our unprotected position gloomy and cheerless beyond expression. is man 1s no common highwayman. He certainly shows great skill as well as courage. How he maintains the smallest force named for him, is an enigma, and he continues to keep his plans and operations a secret. He began about a month ago with about eighty men. If he has not increased their number ho must have been at great expense in retaining them and their horses in ser- vice. So far he has done but little; for tho purposes of gre revenge he does not need such a force, and while e maintains it, he cannot gralty his revenge without vast injury to himself, his friends, and to this whole re- gion, a8 well as our citizens. He must have somo ulterior object, but what that is no one has yet learned. He Seems to wait his time and opportunity, and this, with a telf reliance and» firmuess of purpose ‘which may well give us pause. Our neighbors over the way are be, to dread a union between the band under Cortiuas with that from Victoria and San Fornando. If anything near that which is reported is correct as to their numbers, thero is no pegs ed danger which a coalition would produce. With ‘the of the chaparral and the wide distances which separate the various ranchos not upon the river, they would defy pursuit and yet be ever dangorous. ’ Who were their friends, we might never know; they might be only the far off reactionaries of the Mexican republic, and they might be those who’ make their money off ofour own people in our own midst. Who supports Cortinas, who arms his men with the best and most coatly arms; what is his ultimate mission, even what is his presont force and his immediate designs, aro all unknown to ua.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF 7HE GOVERNOR OF GxoRGLA.— Governor Brown’s message is exclusively devoted to im- ternal affairs, finances, banks, education, internal im- provements, and contains recommendations of many use- ful reforms. In bis inaugura) address the Governor refera to federal politics, and uses the following language:— The t contest of 1860, which may decide the fate of the Union, is to be fought between the black republican and the national democratic parties. It is nscless to dis- the fact; there can be no third party of power be- tween the two, with any prospect of success. shall Georgia stand in the contest? Shall she stand united with the democracy, or shall she divide her strength, and thereby give incidental ald to her enemies? I lcok to the national democratic party as the last ope of the Union. Destroy its integrity, and trample under foot its principles, and there {a no longer a rational hope for the i of the South in the confederacy. I love the Union of these States, and am prepared to make every reasonable sacrifice to maintain it, 6 long asit does not violate the rights of my native South. But should the two come into conflict, I love the rights of the South more, and am to defend them, at any sacrifice and at every hazard. In tho present condition of affairs, I would advise the citizens of Georgia to stand united with the national democracy, 89 long a3 they con- tinue to stand by her rights and to protect them in Union. But should thie organization be broken down, and her constitutional rights bo denied, and her equality in the Union destroyed, I would then advise her citizens to strike for independence out of the Union; and to pledge to each other “their lives, their fortunes and their most sacred honor,’ never to forsake each other till triumphant success shall have crowned thelr efforts. My forvent prayer to Almighty God is that this may be averted; that wisdom, moderation and justice may control all our ‘national and State councila, and that tho rights of the States and tho Union of the States may be thus perpetuated.
