-- WHOLE NO. 9820. 1 promised you @ sketch of thie Geveral Falcon, now ‘the most prominent man in Venessela; but, though I cam perform my promise, I find there is but very little to be said about him. His Srst appearance im public life was in the year 1848, in the town of Goro, of which he is native. That year being signalized in Veneauela by the coup deat of Mona- gas, and Falcon, having made himself conspicuous im supporting the Monagas party, was rewarded by its chief, the then President of therepwdtic, with tho mili- tary rapk and title of Commandant. Up to that time Falcon had been a quiet, unpretending citizen, without any dreams of either political or military glory, and but for the accident of the coup d’eat this ‘‘village Hampden” would in all probability never have tarned up, but would have pureued the even tenor of the life of quiet and ob- Assassination of Gen.

When Castro became President, some timo subsequently, Falcon supported his party, for some good reason of bis own no doubt, manceovring probably to strengthen his own popularity. Thus you see there is, so far, nothing particularly strik. ing in bis life—a plain, common man of the people, sud- dently raised to an unexpected height, and knowing how to improve his position, By hie constancy or tact in holding his party together he has gradually risen to be ite chef. His friends, and even some of bis enemies, claim for him @ good share of common senge and amia- bility of character. It is difficult if not impossible for a ‘man ip his position, devoid of genius, to rise superior to party feeling and prefer the interests of his country to Blockade Runne: the gratification of ‘his friends’ wishes and suggestions. Rees Reon Falcom may possess genius or mind enough to be a patri- otic President and not the mere chief and tool of a party, [ as is Woo often the case. Should ho prove to be a patriot tical from Havane 186 | 1 can be all that Venezuela requires, and she requires tenant, much to prevent a recurrence of the civil war which has Our Ha: ravaged ber for years. ‘The secretary of General Falcon, Mr. Guzman Blanco, is quite @ young man, who has as yet done nothing particue larly worthy of notice. He is the son of Don Antonio Leocadio Blaneu, who escaped from the fury of the people during the troubles of 1848, having to take refuge in the house of the British Consul, who conceaied him in anoven, The young Blanco bas yet to make a name for himeelf, ‘and lest he might disappoint all predictions { had better make none. ‘There is just a ripple or two on our otherwise quiet sur- face bere in Havana.

FALCON, PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA. ‘The Eagle Assists in Capturing a Boe a Correspondence. Havana, August 1, 1863. The Vera Crus newspapers brought us by the Spanish qmail steamer from Santiaga de Cuba, although in the Wrench interest, must be relied on for the only details we oan get from that quarter. According to these authori- es matters are going just as one might expeet--that is to | way, the successful party grows strooger, while the de- | feated and weaker one is dally losing friends and sup- | porters. No one-will be surprised to learn, for instance, Vaat General Doblado, Governor of the State of Guanajus- \, and General Ignacio Comonfort, ex-President of the ‘epublic, bogin to think their bread is buttered on the French side, and will benceforth support the ‘‘inter- vention,” as it is called. Among any other peo- ple, perhaps, the defection of euch men might cause astonishment; but the leading ‘‘patriots’? of Mexico wise above vulgar scruples ,and act, not with valor, but with ite better part—discretion. A safe conduct had ‘been forwarded to Comonfort, and, according to the news from the capital, he was hourly expected in that city. fle wants to be on band when the tities and dignities of the empire aro being distributed, and wil! put in for a countebip at least. Juarez, it appears, is still at San Lave, issuing decrees, without an army to enforce them, against a powerful enemy, whois upsetting his authority m alltides. By one of these orders Mexico city is to be starved, the farmers being forbidden to take their pro- duce there, and all communication is strictly prohibited. Who:supposes that these idle decrees will be obeyed? ‘The official paper of San Luis confirms the reported at- tack made on Generals La Liave and Ortega by the escort which accompanied them, resulting in the death of the former, The details show that robbery was the motive, General Ortega having five bundred ounces in gold on his person when he made his escape. This sum, equal to eight thousand dollars, he found to incommode him in luis rapid travelling, and divided it with General La Liave, who had proposed to carry a portion. In making this di- ‘vision some of the gold fell to the ground, and attracted the notice of the escort, A few moments afterwards | La Liave received a ball in the region of the spine, and ‘ell {rom bis horse, crying to Ortega to save himself. The wounded General survived two days, while continu- ing bis Journey to San Luis in a litter which had been | provided for him by those of his escort who did not de- wert. Ib was reported that Ortega was also badly wounded; but since I find no mention made of the fact in the official paper, from which I have | taken these details, it may be presumed that be escaped without injury, especially when a Vera ‘Cruz letter of the 14th ult. epesks of him as about to re- game the governorship of his State, Zacatecas. The rob- bers and murderers of course escaped, inacountry where years of misrule have made such acts so familiar as to excite no longer any horror or abhorrence among the people, and where the arm of the law has been too weak to overtake crime. Every day proves more ana more that there is po na- tonal vitality m Mexico. The government of Juarez is organized, alt>r a fashion, it is true; but I do not find any of the papers of his party epeak of any real efforts being | made to support the government of the republic. There | Gre no spontancous uprisings of the people against the in- | vaders and ignovators, no armies gathering at the cal) of the President and rallying round him at San Lais, no money offered to sustain the war, everywhere apathy, | indifference, treason, desertion, forced loans, plunder, the rule of the bayonet, diggust, terror and petty | vengeance, Juarez orders forced loan, and imme @iately the prisons are filled with those who retuse to comply. An attempt is made, as happened at Morelia, to make a levy of troops among the people, and the samo result follows. The people are tired and want rest, no matter under what shelter. When Juarez, in such a crisis, \s Obliged to have recourse to forced loans and forced levies 1 sustain himself, it speaks volumes for the | popular feeling. On the other hand, I will not burt your prajndices by Pepeating © patent fact—that the French seheme gains @trength daily—preferring to leave you to your owe con clusions on that score; but. where is the man who will refuse or resist assistauce offered when his house is on fire and his family and property in danger of perishing? If that man exists anywhere it is in seme mad- house.

The steamship Eagle, while on ber way to Havana, stopped a steamer loaded with cotton, supposed to have run out of Wil- mington, N. C., and detained her till a federal gunboat, which was in pursuit,came up and made seizure, Tho Fagle fired a gun for the purpose of bringing the runa way to. Now, this affair is discussed by the merchants here in language which shows the general fecling to be one of displeasure that a steamer, carrying mails, goods and passengers to a neutral port, aod in the service of Deutral interests, ehould be made to compromise those interests by turning cruiser. This is what is said by merchants here. Apropos of such matters, we have a report from Key West that the United States steamer Vanderbilt has been sunk by either the Alabama or Georgia, near Great Isaacs, after a sharp action of fifteen or twenty minutes’ duration. Thé Diario of to-day publishes, with reserve, the details of the affair as far ag known, and which are said to have been received at Key West through two sources.

Avauer 5.—Punetually at ten o’clock this morning Recorder Hoffman took hie seat on the bench tn the Court of General Sessions. The court room at that hour was not unusually crowded,.and the arrival of the prisoners, handcuffed together, created but little sensa- tion, As on previous occasions, District Attorney &. Oakey Hall appeared as prosecuting officer. After calling the panel of petit jurors the following prisoners, who pleaded guilty on Monday last, were broughs up for sentence. James Lynch, a sailor, for carrying a slung shot, was sent to the State Prison for three years, John Roberts and Eugene Sullivan, for grand larceny, were each sentenced to the State Prison*for three years and two months. Charles Edwards, for an atiempt at grand larceny, was sent to the House of Refuge. James Flyon, for grand larceny, was sentenced to the State Prison for two years and two months, Henry B.

Meesrs. Jonas B. Phillips and Henry Morrison appeared as counsel for Silva and informed the District Attorney of their inabilityjto goon with the case until Friday, to which day it was postponed, Ex.

Patrick Sheron and Jobn Hagan, indicted for robbery in the first degree, were then placed at the bar. Ex-Judge Dean appeared for Hagan and* informed the Court that he had oniy been retained in the case on Tues- day evening, and desired time to examine into its merits. District Attorney informed the Judge that ten days age he notified all the prisoners of his intention to pro. ceed with the trial of their caseson the day succeeding the one on which the indictments were found, and, in bis opinion, those notices ought to have been sufficient.

The act of the District Attorney in jasuing the notices to the prisoners was, he thought, quite unpre cedented.

A postponement was granted, IN REFERENCE TO THE CITY JUDGR. At this point the District Attorney «aid that if the counsel thought any postponement they might obtain until next week would result tn sending the cases over until next term, when City Judge MoCuon would oceapy the he wished te undeceive them. No cases of that nature would be tried in the Court of Sessions next menth, as at the clove of the present month he intended moving that all such cases remaining nndis- pored of at that time be sent tothe Court of Termmer, which would sit in Uctober next.

It charged him with having assaulted and robbed a pegro, named Charles Jackson, on the 15th of July last, at pier No. 3 North river, and afterwards thro bim into the river.
