WHATEVEH reason there may be to doubt that the Yankees beat " theold country" in all possible domains, there can bo no hesitation in saying that they " lick them to immortal smashes"—and— to use another of their own expressive terms, they " estawampously chew the Britisher, up" in all supersensuil matters. Gnat as they undoubtedly are on solid earth. in Mexican wars, in ritio shooting, yacht building, daguerreotyping, gin-sling, and a host of terrene achievements of like nature, still greater are they in their mastery over the details of the spiritual world. they are like the in tellectual victor celebrated by the poet, not only do they "conquer worlds," but they "imagine new." Mormonism, which in England dwelt in unclean platy% unknown to Commissioners of Sewers, and lifted up its voice in back streets only, where it was drowned by the adult brawls and the infantine screams of " surplus population," is elevated into • power in the Vatted States. 'There it chooses governors, enacts laws, makes war. " Revivals," which in England tremble at the shaking of a police man's club, in America convulse states, overawe power, lead thousands captive. In America,German transcendental philosophy, which is eo sickly an exotic in England, takes vigorous root, becomes an clement is the public mind, flourishes in transcendental magazines like "The Dial." finds VOiOef in wonderful women like MAZGAZET FULLER, or erratic philosophers like RALPH WALDO Ext.ksON. All this points to an extreme sympathy in some portion at least of the American population w* everything that relates to the world beyond die senses. The old Puritan belief in the existence of magic which expressed itself in the burning of witches so decidedly that it was difficult to Lind an' old woman in Nevi England, has come down to the modern descendants of the ilgrim fathers " with • difference." There are num bers ready still to believe in communications with the unseen world. The grim form, however, of the old Puritan faith, which had something sublime in it, is changed for the benefit of modern believers into something rather pleasanter, and as it appears to outside infidels something intensely comic. To some portion, how ever, of the American population there is nothing at all comic in the matter. They have taken the thing up seriously, and patriotically, and determining to hiring spiritual influences as well as all others, wain the boundary of republican forms, they have lately held a spiritual Conrention. The American papers tell us that at Worcester, in Msasachussetts, several hundred believers in spiritualism convened in the Horticultural Hall, on September the twenty-ninth, and commeneed.—after haying in a most matter-of- feet some, chosen a chairman,—to discuss gravely all sorts of questions which relate to the spiritual world. The report of the meeting shows that no subject was forbidden, that had in it any elements of impossibility, or was contrary to the diitatts of com mon sense. A Mr. SPEtft commenced the entertainment. This gentleman edified the meeting by telling them that "he seemed to hare the power of helping persons." It may be es well to say here that we incline to the belief that Mr. SPEAR must be excepted from the sweeping condemnation of folly which attaches to most of the actors in the scene to which we are alluding. He seems to have known remarkably well what he was about, and his exordium was admirably well calculated to excite the greatest sympathy amongit a crowd of persons, who it is mere charity to suppose were not very well able to help them ma'am Mr. SrrAa then hints very cunningly that such persons may be very pnix!!!!:, a flock des tined for his peculiar care. "He seemed to have the power of helping persons. His hand moved without his will towards the seat of diseases, and they were instantly relieved." Here is a direct bid to be elected physician in chief to the spiritual incapables. " The spirits," he continued, " sent him on distant missions, telling him he would have his expenses paid, and it Was mayor; so." Who can doubt, after this, that Mr. Brea' will turn up at Paris next year comfortably settled in the Rue Rivoli, with the run of the Boulevards generously secured to him by the spiritualists ? If not seen at Paris, link for him at Baden, or Munich, or Naples, or any locality which hiaeonvenienoes for garnering that somewhat indistinathst grateful product called " the fht ef the land." Mr. SPEAR is a wise man in Ms geematise, end emsred his hearers at the con cludes at Ms speech that "he thought some great geed would meek to the wadi met is gilt, if be was allowed Mew animas to it.'

Not impair at hand a guide to the literature of the spiritualists, we are not quite awe whether Mr. Dime is the " Poughkeepsie Bser " who published a volume of folly and blasphemy of portentous dimen sions some time back. The style, however, of the epoch and the book are so much alas, that they would appear to betray a mama pares age Mr. DAVIS read to the convention a EMS ILDK faithful record of visions he had semi, and communications b. bad received from en inhabitant of the *it spheres.

NMI o. .ophy to theology was but a jump, sod Mr. DAVIS accomplished this by telling his hearers that the spirit commanded him to go and call men to re. pentanes and life, for the kingdom of Heaven was at hand ! . . . The neat transaction seemed to indicate that the Mr. BPRAR mentioned above, and Mr. I/Avis, are moving in spheres which interfere, and that each is making a desperate bid (or the captain-generalship of the Spiritualists. We have shown above how cleverly Mr. Si.r.Art appealed to the interests of his hearers, and how slyly he put the point of his , meies.

It said that Mr. Sew' was yet to be the wonder of the world. He would go forth to heal the sick and to many marvellous things do." The reporter ill-naturedly tells us that " ions HA/groat, &c., seemed to have forgotten their grammar." The ac cusation, however, is probably true, inasmuch as • Seotchman present told the meeting that the spirit of JOUN HANCOCK had just told him that certain words had been used is the eoelteadattioa read by Dr. Hewirr, which he did sat approved The meeting forms a curie's item in the history of fanaticism, and derive' ineavaeedimetree from the fact of its occurrence in • count y , portions ' of the population of which seem pe v incliaed 1 to be attacked with visitations similar both in kind and degree. We generally and justly look upon Ame rica as a great nationality in which the true spirit of LOCKE and BACON has become incarnate. But cool-headed, clever, and calculating as Brother Jona than commonly is, we find him at times indulging in strange pranks—as Mormons and Spiritual Conven tion-men show. Ora hands are tolerably full in the Eut. A tele graphic despatch, received ria Trieste, and dated Trebisond, the 25th of September, states that " a force of nine thousand men had been landed by the English authorities on the shores of the Persian Gulf near Bender-Buschir—their destination under stood to be Herat." On the day whichbrings us this intelligence we have also the Indian mail, by which we learn that our operations in Burnish arc dragging their slow length sluggishly along in a may that greatly strengthens the views we formerly expressed upon this question. The present estimate is, that our force will not reach Ave till March next !--and mean- 1 while the Burmese have full opportunity for strength ening the various positions that stand between Ran goon and the capital. Prome, which only the other day was taken almost without resistance by the steamers under Captain TA RLETON, is now said tabs filled by an army of from ten to fifteen thousand Burmese soldiers, whilst other considerable bodies of the enemy have been stationed at the where they miy best impede the operations o f British. The force under General GoDwIN has now been swelled to over 17,000 men. If he stops much longer inactive where he is, he may need 27,000, or any other number, to finish the work entrusted to him. Ile seems inclined to sleep away the time till the waters WI, and then he must march by land. Capt. TA !ILL TON, who made the dash up tho Irrawaddy, and demonstrated how the war could speedily be brought to a close, has, it is said, been superseded in his command. Why is this? Why should the officer who has performed the smartest service on these waters be prevented from pursuing the success he eehindancl helping to secure the greater successes ihr w he pointed out the way ? From time im memorial pipe-clayed incompetence has always been but too ready to thwart rising military and naval talent. Let us hope that this may not be another flagrant illustration of that sort of sin. Oao thing is quite certain—that the pub lic will require to be satisfied why Captain TantevoN has been superseded, should it prows true that the commander of the expedition has reel ventured to remove the conductor of the Promc expe dition from his post on board the war steamers. It may be that this removal is under pretence of making Captain Taatxrox more useful elsewhere; but such flimsy pretexts, should they be offered, will not suffice to cloak any more subtle and mischievous motives. The chief commander being a military man, may not perhaps desire that the naval arm of the expedition should put a speedy termina tion to the strife in hand. Such professional jea lousies have before,—and may again—do infinite mischief to the public service; and.of this the o ffi cers whom it may concern should be reminded. We have so much quarrelling on hand in India, that no time should be lost in deciding our differences with the court of Ava. On the north-west frontier there are new commotion. " On the 19th of August (says one correspondent), in consequence of - a rumoured gathering of the Momunds, under their chief Sa•Dur IRAN, • considerable British force proceeded from Peshawar, and advanced as far as Bhublcudr, on the Cabal river, but halted there, as no signs of an enemy were apparent. Probably our military demonstra tion prevented the threatened b ruption by Baavur KHAN. Next day, however, in another direction, a party of hill men, under a chief named Afoot YUAN, succeeded in plundering one of our villages, notwithstanding the presence there of a 'local' detachment in British pay. The robbers were pur sued by a British Miser, with a troop of cavalry, but the alarm had been given too late, and they easseeded in ',NetaQ with their booty. The SIM MOM viU I. all=ility bring the usual ausesssion tit bender which may provoke government into retaliation on a large sale, and may even lead to a war of extermination es the only means of securing the quiet of our frontier." Meanwhile, sr what in regarded as a deceptive saint in the Punjaub, " rumour has of late been pre valent that a conspiracy had been concocted there Ise the subversion of British rule." The Beikla are mot zet subdued. With all these quarrels in hand, and an prospect, it behoves us to settle quickly the war in Bermah, bliecuring the free navigation of the Irrawaddy, and preferring rather security and enlargement our commerce, than any further extension dour Indian territory.

The Nonagon- announces that the Prince-Presi dent will arrive to-morrow at the station of the Or leans railroad at two o'clock instead of three o'clock, as had been first announced. In consequence of this change the troops will take up their positions an hour earlier than the time fixed in General Magnan's crder of the day. The preparations for the reception continue with the utmost activity. The Orpheonists and the society of the Enfans de Paris, who proposed to sing choruses on the terrace of the Tuileries, hero received notice that this performance cannot be al lowed. The only music will be that performed by the military bands. Only twelve hundred spectators will be admitti.d to reserved seats in thu interior of the garden. The deputation of the Legislative Body which will meet the Prince President at the railway terminus will be composed of 50 deputies, drawn by lot from those now in Paris. No more than 150 places could be reserved for them. The members will assemble at the official residence of M. Billault, and thence proceed with an escort to the railway terminus.' The Patric states that in every part of Paris the workmen have applied to the authorities for per mission to send deputations to meet the President on his return to Paris. In the Faubourg St. Maroeau alone the number of workmen who have expressed • wish to go as a deputaton amounts to 8,000. The Montleur contains the following telegraphic despatch : Niort, Oet. 13, Half-Fat Six, p.m. The Prince arrived at Niort at half-past five.

Amounts from Constantinople to the 30th ult., in the Colutelutionnel, says: Naga Pasha, the Minister of Finance, has been du mimed by en imperial Semen of the 2sal. This dismissal was received with the most unequivocal marks of satiate°- , tion by all classes. Although it is very difficult at the first moment to ascertain the exact cause of the fall of a minister belonging to the Turkish cabinet, yet it is gene rally supposed to be the opposition he has endeavoured to make to the ratification of the loan recently contracted at Paris; and there is little doubt that the remon strances which have been made againet his financial eye.. tem have also powerfully contributed to it. This system has consisted in exacting by every means except violence the payment of the seas due to the treasury, and paying nothing. The troops composing the army of the leak (Kurdistan) have from ale to seven months ' pay in arrest, which has occasioned great dissatisfaction amongst them. Nafia Packs has been replaced by Moukuut.liey, sub.director of the artillery, a man whose intelligence so much spoken of, but who yet had an opportunity or displaying his ability in financial matters. lent Nein, Minister of Commerce and Public Works, was dismissed at the same time, and has been replaced by Kyamil-Paeha, formerly in the Egyptian service. lie is a clever man, end his appointment is generally approved of.

Ilaggi-Izzet-Pacha, ex-governor of Trippli, who wee dismissed in consequence of his quarrel with the French consul, arrived at Constantinople yester day, in order to give explanations on the subjtet of the events which led to his read.

The affair of the holy place. has been definitively settled by the acceptance of the lot note delivered a few days since by the Porte to M. de Lavalette, in which it is expressly declared that the finnan given to the Greeks in March last did not in any way modify the conventions previously concluded with the French am bassador and that Alit Bey had been cheeped to carry them out; sa d that, in order to secure the strict °heiresses of the instructions of the Divan, a functionary of the Porte, Eased Effendi, and the Count of ltochegude, an attaché of the French embassy, had left for Jerusalem in order to be present at the reading of the orders transmitted to the authorities of that city by Afif Be;.

The intelligence from the Argentine Republic by this arrival exceeds in importance many preceding mails. The official Progreso of Buenos Ayres, Au gust 31, contains a decree by General Urquiza, pro visional director of the Argentine Confederation, by which the Parana and Uruguay, the noble streams which drain so large a portion of the interior of South America, are opened to the ships of all na tions. The only conditions attaching to the free nevi gation of these rivers are—firstly, that every foreign vessel allowed to enter must be of more than 120 tons burthen ; and, secondly, that no such vessel will be allowed to embark or disembark merchandise ex cept in appointed ports, where custom-houses are to be established. For the I'anna tho custom-houses will be at the towns of Rosario, Parana, and Cor rientes, besides one on some part of the coast of the province of Buenos Ayres, which may be found most eligible. For the Uruguay . the custom-house will be at Conception. Further, in the custom-house of Buenos Ayres all foreign articles of commerce will be received in bond il solicited by the importer. The new measure will come into operation on Oct. 1. Sir George Hotham was received by General Urquiza on the 11th of August, and delivered his credential, of which the following is a copy : " Sir,—The Queen my august sovereign being desirous to strengthen the bonds of amity and good will which happily subsist between the two nations, has entrusted me, in conjunction with the French Envoy, with a special mission to the Argentine Con federation. "The forbearance and humane consideration for all interests and all persons which your Excellency has shown during your recent campaigns, have inspired her Majesty and the British public at large with confidence in your wisdom and judgment. " Her Majesty feels assured that your Excellency will lend your earliest attention to such measures as in the execution of my instructions I may at the proper period bring to your notice, and that you will consider her wishes are directed to the furtherance of objects, which, whilst they connect more closely together the family of nations, she hopes and believes tend to promote the interest of the countries over which you preside. " Sir, I now do myself the honour to present my aredsstials, convinced that on all occasions you will lard me support and assistance." To which General Urquira made the following reply Mr. Minister,—The Argentine government, which feels the most lively sympathy for the British people and for the government of her Majesty Queen Victoria, sincerely 'desires to fortify in a . permanent manner the bonds of amity that happily exist between the two states, and that they maybe perpetual, for their reciprocal bene fi t and convenience. "It accepts with cordial complacency the cour teous expression which the minister addresses to it, in the name of his august Sovereign and the British people, and will endeavour in its policy not to belie the confidence it has inspired. " The mission which her Majesty has confided to your Excellency, conjointly with the French Envoy, is an eloquent proof of the intentions that animate the policy of her Majesty, and the Argentine go vernment will do everything in its power to draw closer the relations of amity and commerce between the two countries. "It affords me much satisfaction, Mr. Minister, to receive the powers that have been given to your Ex cellency, for the discharge of your mission, and in its exercise I will lend every possible co-operation, that it may have a successful issue." General Urquiza has received the Ilon. M. Schenck, specially delegated by the President of the United states to assist the ordinary American minister at Buenos Ayres. In the course of his brief y to the minister's address Urquiza said, " The tical change that was effected on the memorable of February, had no other object than to render dhetive the liberal institutions proclaimed from the ashen declaration of its independence." The opportune and amicable recognition of the in derindence of Paraguay appears to have given great satisfaction to the commercial public of Buenos Ayres, that step being a necessary precedent condition of the opening of the interior rivers of the country. The following is the treaty by which this important political act has been effected : His Excellency the Provisional Director of the Argentine Confederatios, General Don Just* Joe 6 de Britain, and his Excellency the President of the Republic of Pompey, Don Carlos Antonio Lopez, with a view of firing definitively the relations between the two states, founded on the principle of reciprocal interest, community of origin, and other cir cumstances that naturally unite them, have resolved to establish in the more necessary part their territorial limits, establishing at the same time the bean on which their commerce and navigation are to be ar ranged between the two republics; and for that purpose have named as their plenipotentiaries, viz., his Excellency the Provisional Director of the Argentine Confederation, Dr. lion Santiago Derqui; and his Excellency the Presi dent of the Republic of Paraguay, Don Benito Varela, Provisional Minister and Secretary of State of the Foreign Relations of the Republic; who, having exchanged their fall powers. end found them in good and due Corm, have agreed on the following articles : 1. The River Parana is the boundary between the Argentine Confederation and the Republic of Paraguay, from the Brazilian possessions to two leagues higher up than the lower mouth of the Island Atajo. 2. The Island of Yauret.l remains belonging to the terri tory of Paraguay ; end that of ApiO, Re., to the Argen tine. The other firm or inundable islands belong to the territory to which they aro nearest. 3. It is stipulated as a special condition of this tre a t frank communication between the tow ns o f t h e Parana y, San Borja del Uruguay, for the Paraguayan .ind 11 um • • posts, with the necessary escorts f u r their safety. 4. The River Paraguay, from bank to bank, beloage re perfect sovereignty to the Republic of l'ar.iguay, to t , confluence with the Parana. 6. the two Thesta navigation of the Bermejo i s p er f ectly common 4tes. 6. The landward coast from the mouth of the Bermejo the River Atsjo, is neutral territory fur the distanc e of out leajiue, so that the high contracting parties shall n,, r em military cantonments, nor police guards, cot even for th e ter _ _ of ob e ceeing the barbarians that inhah.t the 7. The Confederation concedes to the republic the trot navigation of its flag through the Parana an d its effbent°4 extending to it ad those immunities and adv antages thy civilised governmente, united by special t reat i es of cem. mace, grant to each other; it will not detain, or pre vent, or impose duties on the passage of any m ercanti l e expedi. tion that may have OCCI4IIIII to puss throu g h t h e fluvial or terrestrial territory of the oonfederatMn tu puns of P ara. guay, Sr trim the latter to any other foreign puts, *gi me , subjecting them to fiscal charges, duties, searc h es, undoing of packages, eke., Ac., which, at the mime time that the incommode commerce, annibilete it, Icy alarmi ng it, aria deterring it from frequenting the most p ro d uct i ve routes.

It is distinctly understood that both S'ate, ore en titled to dictate the regulations that they may cc:which, • pedient, to avoid contraband during the transit, to pr,eido for their security, with a complete reserv e of the law_ feel used their perfect sovereignty in thi it fluvial territory. that is not limited by public law or earth i.e to 10.

I. MANI'LI. CARRAL. [L.S.] BENITO VARELA. MARIAN,. GONZALES. . . The Council of state remitted to General Urquirs, on the 4th of August, a memorial, on the appina:iaa of the ex-Dictator Roses, asking that hi, propitty, which had been confiscated, might be restored to his agent. 'The Council report favourably on the ap. plication, considering that the Argentine republic should deal with Roses less after his desert than ' according to its own honour and dignity. In one of the passages of their report they say: "The confiscation of the property of General Itosas as a political measure the Council unanimously re jects. Confiscations, in the opinion of the Council, even should they be practised in the name of li , ierty, I almost always servo to fortify arbitrary power, and to enslave communities. ('ontiscation, evitably prepare civil war. Civilisation con demns them : they are erased as a political punishment in the codes of all civilised nations; and are not to be tolerated, unless when the property happens to be employed, according to the opportune expression of your Excellency, as an instrument against society, and as a means of attack against the established order. But even so the council would not vote for the exception, except as to the tempo rary occupation of the property, which would break the arm destined to wound the country. The Min. Cil will not conceal from your Excellency its immense satisfaction, should the case submitted to its opinion give occasion to a special declaration of your Excel lency, fortifying the right of property, already re cognised as inviolable by our laws, and condemning confiscation as a crime of treason against the country." Urquiza replies by a decree concluding thin:- - - - Art. 1. All the property belonging to the ex-governor of the province, General Don Juan Manuel de Roams, shall be delivered up, in the state in which it may be found, to lu agent, Don Juan Nepomuceno Terrero. Art. 2. Consequently the decree of the IGth February of the present year, by which it wu declared confiscated, is abolished. Art. 3. The present decree shall be submitted to the sane. dm of the General Constituent Congress. Art 4. Let it be communicated to whom it may concern, published, and given to the official register. By another decree Urquiza proscribes the punish ment of death for political offences throughout the whole republic, " desiring that the republic in thin respect be placed at the elevation of the principles of civilisation and humanity that now rule the world." The schism in the province of San Juan, which gave rise to the bellicose proclamation of Benavides, has been healed, and the legal governor has been re instated in the exercise of his authority without shedding a drop of blood. Drs. Carril and Lahitte have been declared duly elected as the two representatives for the province of Buenos Ayres, a choice which, the Packet says, can not fail to inspire confidence throughout the repub lic. Don Angel Elia and Dr. Diego Alvear have also been elected for the province of Itioja. A notice from the ministry of foreign relations appears in the Proreuo of Aug. 12, enforcing the necessity of all ship rapers being endorsed by the Argentine Consuls at the place of their despatch : and that after six months from the date of the present notice, Aug. 13th, no vessel will be admitted with out that formality. Encouraged by the return of confidence the govern ment and private individuals are venturing on can ons liberal measures for improving the general moral and social condition of the Republic, but chiefly of Buenos Ayres. The university chair of political economy is to be at once filled up by con court. The construction of docks is under &sew Moo. A " liquor law " has also been promulgated for Buenos Ayres, restricting the existing facilities for drunkenness; 'metal reform is promised ; a new exchange is likely to arise ; and, lastly, a weal periodical is established entitled " La Confederroa Argentina," to treat preferently of the questions that may concern the national organisation. BRAZILS. RIO DE JANEIRO, S l'T Since the Teviot's departure we have little news of importance to record. The most important. per. haps, is that brought from the river b y the Provo, that the navigation of the rivers Paranaanill'rugual is to be opened to every foreign fag. The free navigation of the rivers is to commence on the let of October. That Urquira has conferred a great boon upon the commercial world will not ho questioned : and it is to be supposed that Erglisll vessels will not be the last to take advantage of, or English interests to be benefited by, the openingei those long-closed rivers. In Rio the municipal elections have passed off very quietly, and the result has been highly favour able to the ministerial party ; the same result is considered to be a matter of certainty in the pro- vinces also. This will be matter for congratulation to every well-wisher to the empire, whick hav never before enjoyed such prosperity or made such program as under the auspices of its present rulers. The Brazilian Chambers were closed on the i t when the following speech wan delivered from the throne: August and most worthy representatives of th • n o r At the close of the last ordinary session of sth, gislative Assembly, I have in fi nite satisfaction in re to to mind the important measures you hove this and the two preceding years, and I thank . n u I ,r tho zealous assistance you have afforded in the arduov which devolved upon my government.
