MEXICO. The Eruption of Mount Ceboruco--Desoription of the Volcano—The Crater and Its Surround. ings—Appearance of the Volcano in Ac. tion—Effect of the Lava on Vegeta- tion—Observations Taken in Front. MeExtco, May 6, 1870. ‘fhe following interesting account of the recent eruption of the volcano of Ceboruco has cen for- warded to the authorities at this capital, fom Tepic, under date of March 26, and the accompanying in- structions have been issued, which, /if compited with, may result in further importam: data veing added wo that already recorded in tye archives of scientific lore:— The event of anew eruption of tye volcano which exists in this district having lately eccurred, although 1t is mentioned im the writings of Clavijera and Humboldt, and also in the history of New Spain, by Mota Padilla, 1 feel it a daty to give the information to the Minister of Fomento which this jefetura potitica has received. It 18 very dimeult to 1x the epocr in which this phenomenon com- Meneed; but it is supposed to be many centuries remote by the vegetauon which 1s Jound over a great part of the lava which covers it, and its ‘existence is spoken of by Garcia Cubas, by the name ef “Ceboruce,” because the road to Guadalajara passes along the edge of this lava, On the top of the mountain there exists the qid crater, of circular form, with a diameter of 180 metres, surrounded with calcined rocks, which have given it the name of “corouilia;” also there are observed, at a greater or less distance, some breathing holes or mouths, which, itis supposed, are in communication with the main crater, Although the towns of Alruacat- Jan, Jala, Jomuico, Pequepexpan and the farms of Marquesado and Auzeta are bub @ short distance off, there is no recollection or antecedent which can serve to fix the epoch when the first eruption took place. The relation is, therefore, lost of a historic oceurrence, Which must have been terrible and astonishing, judging from the number of leagues which are covered with stones of immense size, ‘thrown out by the volcano during its first eruption, Consequently that which has taken place to-day has justly enlisted public attention, ag it was supposed ‘to have become extinct, but now makes its appear- @ucein a new form, which has territied the people of the towns by Ms noveily and the astonishing eifects which it presents, 1 give to the ministry under your worthy charge the information which has beea noted up to to-day, accompanying at the same time the observal Which haye been made, in order to fix its he! and the digfercnt grades of its temperature, 22d of February last it was noted that the ancient erater was discharglug smoke in greaier or less quantity, and on the 23d that loud, subterraneous sounds were heard, the smoke forming an linmense eoiunn, increased and impregnated with ashes and sand, which have been thrown to the distance of five or 1X leagues, it being observed that ai the tune of each sound it throws out great masses of red hot stones, Wiiich produce im thelr fail a continuous, muilied sound like the breakers of a stormy sea. A valley formed on the top of the mountain, from eighty to ninety metres long by eighty deep, has beex covered with the lava, which, at the opening of the crater, dces hot slope in gentile declivity, but which, lorming steps of from elght to ten metres {rom the base, presents walls of the figure ef trapezium almost symmetrical, of form seventy lo eighty metres high. it appears that these walls bulge out and slip from time to time towards the bottom, pulsations boing noticed 1 the top, which cause stones to fall, the most of these mea- suring from three to four cubic meures, and, by faillug upon the ground, prodace an immense amount of dust, which is ralsed in the form of a column of earthy appearance, being mixed with others of a red color, which the dit of the moun- wal produces, and removed frequently by the large number of stones which roll upon it, in ditferent parts of the valley, and especially in the upper part, Mhe loosened rocks have roltcd down it, producing an Intense and prolonge! hissing sound, large quau- tities of watery vapor, which form columns nearly vertical, extremely dense and white, being raised More than 800 metres, aud changing to a rose unt oolor at sunrise aud suuset. These columns become slowly enlarged, and terminate, being lost 1 the horizon. ‘The stones that are thrown from the valley readily get fire to the shruos which they come in contact With, and at might they look red, which aids in making more wonderful the view which the moun- tain presents. The gases which it sends forth are like those arising from an iron foundry, and it is known they are not obnoxious because they do not affect the virds that perch upon the mountain. The sublerraneous noises and reporis are of more or less frequency, and some detonations are preceeded by shocks that are ouly felt a short distance from the mountain, and it is Enown that the ‘coronilla” of tne crater has sunk down, and towards the east 1s covered with sand, The abundance of lava which the crater throws out has covered not only the vailey which We mentioned, but also taking the stream im the ravine called Anceta, 16 threatens to cross the road aud even io extend over the farm adjotning. In order that the Miniscer of Fomento may turm an idea of the voicano and iis effect, Lsead a view of the mountain and also of the valley which serves a3 @ channel Jor the lava thrown out of the crater, Please present this report to the Supreme Magistrate of the nation for his information, Observations nin front of the voleano known by the name of poruca on the 7th, 8th, 9th and Wth of Marcel, 1870:—the thermometer (ventigrade), in the shade and open alr, ab sIX A. M,, stood, in Anceta, 10 degrees centigrade. In the same place gud hour the temperature of the water in the ravine marked 26 degrees centigrade. In the same piace, at seven P. M., the temperature of Lhe water 13 24 degrees 40 minutes. In the same place the needie varied 7 degrees east, and,as the same variation has been observed for some years, It can be taken as unaiterable in that pli Near a ravine east of the volcano, about 500 me: from the lava, at half past nine A. M., the needle varied 7 degrees east. At the same point the temperature in the shade and open air Was 26 degrees centigrade, At the saine place the thermometer was submerged ta the sand and arose to 74 degrees centigrade. One hundred metres east from the petrified lava the thermometer arose in the shade and open air to 29 degrees cenil- grade; in the sun, to 40 degrees centigrade. At the same point ihe needie varied 10 degrees east. The extremity of the needie, which is directed to the north, was inclined to. tie horizon 9 degrees. The distance from Anceta to the vertical, which passes by one of the peaks of the mountain, is 2,881 metres. ‘rhe elevation of the column of vapor from the “coronilla” above the same level of Anceta mea- sures 822 metres. MINISTRY OF FOMENTO, OF THE REPUBLIC OF MEXICO. Sao. 2. Lhave given an account to the President of the repubiie of your communication dated March 26, in which you give an exact, desoription of the distinct: phenomena ‘Which occurred during the eruption of the voicauo cailed the Ceboruco, sitnated in that district, and with the communica tion you send a view of the crater and mountain. ‘'ne gov- ernment has seen these works with the appreciation they merit, and he manifests to you, through this secretary, his cousideration for the trouble which you haveitaken that these phenomena, #0 worthy of attention, which have happened in those places, may be known because ot the scientilic interest’ which they present. In order that this knowledge may be more perfect, and an exact idea may be had of the interesting geological phenome- fon to which I refer, the President of the republic has thought best to order that you remit to thi mons both of ancient and modern 1a thrown out of the volcano, designating distance to which these have been scatered during the present eruption, pointing out the most notable local circumstances of the piace where the specimens of lava and aslies inay be taken that Also, it will be suitable that you at are asked for. communicate up to what point and at what distance can the subterraneous noises of which you speak be heard, and in what radius have the shocks been felt, and if these have been more or less hard and prolonged both before and after the eruption, giving finally all the information you think worthy to be’ presented on accouut of its importance and which you may judge useful to form a correct decision upon uoh aa 1mporiant and Joteresting phenomenon, ROUBERY AT THE BRUEMEY DOCK. Goods Valued at $3,000 Removed in Open Day—The Ateged Thief in Custody. On Monday last two cases of goods, consigned by Bremen merchants to Frederick L. Joanvahrs & Co., of Walker street, New York, and two packages con- signed to Boston merchants, were stolen {rom the Bremen and Hamburg docks respectively. No clue could be obtained to the thieves until Wednesday evening, when a laborer named Edward Titterman informed some of the officials that one Thomas Law- ler, who was regularly - employed in re- moving merchandise from the docks, had swuien two of the cases. Chief of Polive Donavan ordered the oificers to be on the alert, aud yesterday afternoon the trackman was arrested and brought before Recorder Pope, ‘Titter- aD swore that he had seen Lawler take away the boxes on his truck. Tiley were marked “F. L. J. & Co.,” and numbered 1,824 and 1,325. Louts Zermer @eposed he had seen Lawler driving the track, the Jatter solemnly denied having ever seen the vehicle. Layier gave his name as Lang, but Titter- map showed that his real name was Lawler, and that he resides at No. 174 Mulberry street, New York. In the meantime Chief Donavan repaired to New York to determine, if possibile, the whereabouts of the stolen property, und procured the aid of a detective fur that purpose. The prisoner Lawler “et out’? a little to Sergeant Ringe, and said he understood that the packages were in a certain house in Spring street, not far from Broadway, but the Chief could find no trace of them there, In fact, trom the contradictory state- ments made by Lawler it is strongly suspected that he js the uuef. This morning our reporter inter- viewed him in the cell and elicited quite a diferent story. Lawler says he wishes to be conveyed to New York, where he can jay nis hand on the individuais Who engaged his services and gave him acheck, ‘with a deecription of the is, to remove them to New York. He hasa family in Mulberry street and has been a truckman sige 1862, and was previously Ap the Wulted Stiles Aruiy. NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1870.—TRIPLE SHEET, THE CENSUS TAKERS. The Trials of » United States Marshal—Hungry Office-zeckers—Dodging Around—Full List of Appointments for the City of New York, Amore bungry, dejecto. looking set of fellows than those who have been hanging around the United States Marshal’s office during the last six weeks, it 4s hard to conceive of, Ever since it was first announced in tee HERALD that General Sharp, United States Marshal for the Southern district of New York, was charged with the important duty of taking the censws in the city of New York, that gen- Ueman has actually suffered the torments of the doomed. Sines the announcement scarcely an hour has elapsed, save when tn bed, that he nag not béen haunted, dogged about and interviewed by aspirants to positions, If he attempted to eat a meal at his hotel balf @ dozen of these fellows would bounce in upon him‘and overwhelm him with applications for positions, He could not get into a stage or a horse car that some of the passengers who chanced to know that he was the dispenser of assistant marshalships would not “go for him” there and then and insist upon their being appointed. Upon three several oc- casions he was compelled to change his private office, 80 a3 to elude, if possible, these indefatigable omice hunters, They would not take “no” for an answer, but wonld return the next day, or perhaps the very next fiour, and renew their claims, Since the 1st of the month, the day the assistant marshals commenced thelr work, the appointments not having becn made public through the press, those who were so unfortunate as not tohave re- ceived positions redoubled thelr efforts, and crowded around the ofiice in Chambers street in such numbers as notonly to fill the reception room, but to block up the passage way 43 weil, and if an attaché of the office attempted to venture out among them he was at once surrounded by the crowd and compelled to listen to such questions as Can you tell me whether or not I am appointed?’ “Has the work of tak- ing the census commenced yet?” “Say, do you think General Sharp has forgotten me? “When will the list of appointments be published 7’ and a thousand and one similar inquires, while every now and then some unhappy, but still conti- dent chap, would exclaim, ‘It’s damned queer that General Sharp don’t notify me of my appointment; certainly he has not forgoiten me |” These appointments were all made several days ago, but owing to the great pressure of business, Genera! Sharp has been unable ere this to get them in proper shape for publicaaon; but now thav they are published it 1s to be hoped that the crowd of dis- appointed aspirants will “give him a rest,” as it is impossible for him to make any alterations in the lst, even if he felt so disposed. It is thought these appointments will give univer- Sal satis{action, as the Gencral has not made one of them without first making personal inquiries as to the ability and socia! standing of the applicant, ‘The assistant marshals are appointed to subdivi- sions, which consist of election districts, one or more, according to the population, The figures pre- coding each name denote the district or districts to which the man 1s appointed.

Colered Girls in League with their Profes- sional *Pals??—Z.osses of Late Aurounting to Fifty Thousand Dollare—Several~ Parties Under Arreet—Goods Recovered—Creditable Detective Work. For some months pasts large number of robberies have been committed in this city at the residences of many of our fuptown families, the losses amount- ing in the aggregate to nearly $50,000, Among other residences robbed were those of James (J, Goodwin, of $West Twentieth street and G. Morgan, of East Thirty-fifth strect, their combined loss alone being nearly seven thoasand dollars, consisting of costly and elogant jewelry, diamonds, fancy articles &c, At the time the above were committed no ole by the detectives could be had of the perpetrators, and the alfferent robberies so scientii- cally performed remained a mystery. Subsequently the Detective Police Agency, 72 Broadway, under the direction of Superintendent Warrin, was employed to Investigate the matter, and after a time the differ ent burglaries were 1astened on one of the gang of burglars, who proved to be Augustus Peterson, alias Samuel Brown, alias Samuel Clark, a colored lad of elghtcen years of age. The boy was tried last month arid received a sentence from Recorder Hackett of ten years’ hard labor at Sing Sing. The next impor- tant step on the part of the detectives was to elfect, if possible, the arrest of the boy’s accomplices, if he , any and the holders of the stolen property. Captain Henry Burden, of the Twenty-ninth pre- ¢lnct, was accordingly consulted tn reference to the matter, and he instanuy detailed detectives Mulligan and Evans to as ist ig the work, in connection with the Warrin operatives. They knew their efforts would be crowned with success, much to the deilght and satistaction not bey 4 of the unfortunate losers of pro- berty but aiso to Superintendent Jourdan and Mr. Warrin, The detectives left no effort untried to gain @ clue whereby to aid them. At last, after many jays, they began. to see light, which, when found, re- flected on a dark subject, that subject being Mary Louise Carroll, a colored girl, aged twenty-six years, yoann in West Twenty-fifth street. She was prams y arrested yesterday and taken before Judge Shandley aud committed in defuult of $2,000 ball. Searcil was made of her apartments, when a reve- lation took place in the di very of sume of the valuable jewelry lost in the robberies specified, together with a large quantity of elegant clothing, many articles of which were entirely new, the clot.- ing alone amounting in value to about $2,000. The next place visited was a residence in West ‘wenty- ninth sireet, and there was discovered another lot of the stolen articles, consisting of jewelry. Fron thence several other places received a call from the elated “coppers,”? and each visit was attended with success in the discovery of long lost valuables, Ad- ditional places are yei to have @ call, and some more arrests are expected belore the detectives have completed their labors on this important case. As most of the parties holding the stolen property were colored women—as cooks, chambermaids, laundresses and’ such !ke—who hire out to families, it can readily be seen that a collusion must have existed with them and their professional colored friends, and thus aid afforded them in the many bold uptown robberies, To show that the impression is a correct one the detectives found in possession of one of the women under arrest a jetter addressed to Augustus Peterson, now at Sing Sing serving out his gentence as one of the principals in these many bold robberies. 1t should be a warning to house- Keepers to exercise great care in these degenerate times as to who they take tuto their service. SHEBUOTH. Feast of tie Jewish Pentecost—Its Meaning Tho Rite of Confirmation to be Aduiinise tered. “In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they Into the wilderness ef Sinai,” (Kxo- dus xix., 1.) Anditcame to pass by the command of the Lord, as further related in the succeeding verses of this same chapter of the gecond book of the Pentateuch, that, on the third’ day of the third month, Moses ascended Mount Sinai, which “was altogether in @ smoke,” and “the smoke thereof as- cendo. as the smoke of @ furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly.” And it was then and there that Moses received the Law from the Lord for his people, In commemoration of this the Jews have conse- crated the day and every recurring anniversary thereof as a festive day of religious observance for their whole people wherever they may be scattered. This festival commences this evening. When the jJast rays of the receding sun indicate the close o1 the Jewish Subbath they at the same time will inau- gurate the Feast of Shebnoth—the Feast of Weeks— for the year 5630 since the creation of the worid, being the year 1870 of the Jhvistian era. It is called the “Feast of Weeks,’ for it concludes the period of seven weeks from the first day of Pesach, whiqh the Jews were commanded copscientiously to count, and the name of the festival is “Seman Maitan Tou- rasenah” (ae Time of the Giving of Our Law), ab- breviated in the English termindlogy of the Jews into Feast of the Law. Jt has still a third signification, it being the season of - devout offerings to the Divine Power of the first fruits of the earth, of tne fields and of the gardens, tius entitling it to the name of the Feast of the Firsi- lings, the German Jews calling 1t Erstiings-Fest. ‘Tne religious ceremontes in ihe several synagogues are specially solemn on this day. The interior of all of them, whether orthodox. or reform, is profusely decorated with flowers and the green of rejuvenated nature, and one of the main features of the cere- mony is the contirmation m the faith of Moses of the Jewish preate. “Public coniirmation of boys and gir.salike,” says a Jewish writer, ‘is a religious cere- tony introduced by reformed Judaism. It has, however, met with such general favor vy the Israelites that congregations, who otherwise adhere to tie ortiiodox practices, haye been Induced to introduce it.” In consequence of this “general favor” there will be confirmation ser vices, with appropriate sermons from the rabbies, in almost every synagogue to-morrow, either in tie forenoon or later in the day, and the erent will be given up to social entertainments in the family circle, With the more advanced reformers tiis fes- tival closes with sunset to-morrow; the orthodox and moderate or partial reformers, however, adhere to the old custom of conUnuing the religious ob- sertance in honor of the feast for two days, and with these Shebuoth. will end on Monday evening hen the sun shall have “run his course fer the : LOLA MONTEZ AND HER DAUSHIER. ard Bennett ; 24, James R.

A Coachman Violates A Corporation urdi- nance, Kuocks Down an Old Lady and Goes Unwhipped of Justice. John Bulkley, a private coachman, in coming down Broadway yesterday forenoon, turned his team on to the sidewalk just below the new Post Office, ran the pole of the vehicle against the back of an old lady, knocking her down, and upon a policeman arresting him assaulted the policeman. The police- man, officer Meagher, of the Broadway squad, on witnessing the knocking down of the old lady, and who, only by @ very narrow chance, escaped being run over, jumped on to the seat by the side of the driver and told him he would have to arrest him and take him to tie Tombs. “Arrest me! I'd liketo see you do it,” spoke up Bulkley in a defiant tone. “You just get down from here aid mind your own business—that’s all.” “1 won't get down and you have got to drive to the Tombs,’? said the oiticer, ‘Ag the officer would not get down Bulkley at- tempted to knock him off the seat, and thereupon Officer Keliy, algo of the Broadway squad, came to Meagher’s assistance, Against these odds lle thought it pest to yield, and without further opposi- tion drove to the Tombs as directed, and on arrival at this great temple of down town justice was con- ducted by Oificer Meagher before Justice Hogan. “What's the matter now ?? asked the magistrate, on the prisoner being arraigned before him. “This man,” answered the oflicer, pointing to the risoner, ‘violated a Corporation ordinance riving on the Wrong side of the street. - “You can go,” said the magistrate, “but keep in future ou the right side of the strect. “But that’s not ali,” pursued the officer. an old lady.” “Injure her any #? inquired the Judge. nly slightly,” replied the officer; but that was no fault of his.”” “You go,” reiterated the magistrate to the “He ran prison ‘but be more careful in future about run- ning against people.” ‘The prisoner left satisfied; but not so the police yaau, Who felt that his eitorta to do hig duty had not been rewarded with proper encpuraement.

These are of world-wide fame, and ‘the woman who dares to msult humanity by palming herself off as a daughter of these iliustrious iadies ought at once, and with- out hesitation, to be condemned, I know the career of Lola Montez well. In my young days I first saw her in Alexander theatre, Glasgow. I haye seen her in Drury Lane, London, also in Liverpool avd Manchester, and al the antipodes. I have seen her in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, and, more than aij, I saw her whip the edtior of the Ballarat Star, in Ballarat. She went from Ballarat to Syd- ney. Two hours before the ship sai'ed from Sydney to San Francisco, to which place she was bound, an officer was sent on board to detain her on legal pro- cess. She replied cedeat tah | to the ofiicer, “Allow me to arrange my tollet.” The officer granted this request; but the officer thought she was a long tine ‘wiih her toilet and knocked at the door of her state- room, “Come in,’? sald Lola, “if you want your moncy ou must take me through the stree’s of Syaney ‘without any clothing and in a state of nature.” The officer declined the proposal, and would not take in custody 80 iliustrious a prisoner so naturally attired. Lola therefore sailed from Sydney to San Francisco in peace, and the officer had to go ashore. ‘here are episodes in the life of Lola Montez that might be of advantage to ponder over; but that per- son who siratted on the stage Jast night in Steinway Hall was shocking to the sight and disgraceful to humanity. “THE HOARY-HEADED, LANKY, LOOKING GENTLEMAN.” SPIRITUALISTIC- WILITARY REVIEW, The Second brigade, First division, National Guard, paraded yesterday morning. At eight A.

Her Loss Admitted by the Owners—Probablo Cause ef the Disaster—Communication ot Mr. Inman to the London Board ef Trade. ‘The gaa fate of the steamer City of Boston, which left thf¥ port on the 25th of January last, cannot longer bo gainsaid, Everybody can remember that the vessel left this port on the date above men- tioned, She had on board at the time a general cargo, consisting of cotton, oil cake, flour, beef, bacon, lard, hopa, tallow, wheat and copper ore, weighing altogether 690 tons, and had also on board 987 tons of coal for her own consumption, She arrived at Halifax on the 27th of January, and there took on board the mails, asmali quantity of cargo, consist- ing of extra luggage of passengers and packages shipped by the naval storekeeper, which made about twenty tons extra weight. The total weight the ship had on board when leaving Halifax was:— Machinery, 390 tons; cargo, 916 tons; coal, 787 tons; making a total of 2,087 tons, The above-mentioned facts are stated, together ‘with other particulars, ina communication made by Mr. Wiliam Inman, of the Inman line of steamers, to the Secretary of the Marine Department of the Board of Trade in London, In the same communi- cation THE LOSS OF THE STBAMER 18 ADMITTED by Mr. Inman, He says:— Tcan no longer conceal from myself the overwhelming robabllity that the total loss of this company’s steams! ity of Boston, with all on board, bas tno pincey and the “Alt Di? romanza.

My company’s steamer City of Anuverp, which ieft New York the day alter the Cit of Boston left Halifax, was aware of ice to the northward, although it was not seen, Mr. Inman claims that his view of the loss appears to be the more provable, trom the fact that no por- tion of the wreck has ever been picked up. He also refers in the communication 10 @ letter published in. the London Tunes on the 12th of March, signed “Z,” enciosing a copy of an anonymous letier irom Hulifax—which was afterwards used by Mr. Parking- ton, M. P., in the House of Commons—charging that “the Kvessel had been lost from overloading.” Auother letter is mentioned, Which appeared: in tie London Tines of April 11, signed “One who has often crossed the Atiantic.” Tie writer of the latver letier, on beimg discovered, it appears, inserted @ full apology, but the writer of the other letter signed “2.” (dr. B, J. Jenkins), faimng to apologize, has been sued for libel, Mr. Inman’s communication then goes on to siate how long his company’s steamers have been engaged in the pas- senger traffic, and how many passengers they have carried safely; but carefully avoids mentioning how many passeigers and others lost their hves on the ill-fated City of Boston or on any of the other ships of the company.
