The following proclamation will be read with interest at the present crisis of Mexican affairs, not from any merit in its concoction, but from the character of its author. In the first place, General Santa Ana is a man of talents, who eminently distinguished himself in the events which lcd to the late change, and in the arrange ment of the existing system. Any expression of his sentiments is therefore like!y to influence a great body of his countrymen. In the second place, the-General has been frequently, though perhaps groundlessly, accused of designs against the independence of his country, from motives of ambition or views of aggrandizement, which the restoration of the Spanish power could most amply gratify. If there is meaning h: language, or faith in military leaders, the suspicions against Santa Ana on this point must now be removed. The Havannah expedition, from which so much was boastingly anticipated, is likely, if resisted by such a General, to meet with the same fate as that which has befallen all the former attempts of Spain to re•subjugate her colonies : broken their chaims, it i 3 .madness to attempt to re impoqe them. " ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANA. " Jalapa, July 29." The Congress of the state of Oajaca, one of the states of Mexico, has impOsed a duty of four dollars the arroba on all cochineal exported. By JOHN BOWRING, F.L. S. Printed for Whittiker, Treacher, and Co. Ave Maria-lane. " RESPECTED SIR, —I have heard with great grief that Messrs. have been again plundered, and thy name has again been brought before the public, as having relapsed into bad courses in this distant land. This information is totally incorrect. Imme diately upon my landing, in October, 1627, my shipmates and I were assigned to settlers up the country. The master I was then assigned to is still living, and I can have his testimonials as to the blamelessness of my conduct. I have also the strongest testimonials of good conduct under the surgeon superintendent's own hand, during my passage out, when I acted as his assistao. Mr. L-- was very anxious to gain the some situation suitable to me, but the letters he wrote to the Secretary were neglected by the chief mate, who was to send them on shore ; and I was in consequence assigned to my present em ployer, as his Excellency had signed his name, and it could not he reversed, like the laws of the Medes and Persians. Thus, by the negligene,, of one man, I have become a settler's man, I do not disguise truth from you ; I have been most miserable in this most unhappy land. - I have suffered every degradation in life ; insults upon insults have been heaped upon me ; I have been obliged to associate with the most depraved of human beings, my master's men. Separated from all hopes of comfort and enjoyment, ds. barred from all religious worship, I have becn ready to murmur at the decrees of the Almighty. What can I say to you ? I have been living one hundred and fifty miles from Sydney, up the mountains, 40 miles from any church or settle ment. I see no one from month to month but a black native. The voice of prayer is never heard, and all is blasphemy and wickedness ; and althou i T!‘ my master has latterly made me his house ser vant, and places much confidence in rne, Inv situation is bt#, little, if anything, improved. receive no wages, no inducement, unless I plun der him, and that I hope, by God's help, I s ! ei u never do. Ile is a man whom it is very cia cult to please ; but I weary you, and I shall take my leave of the subject, with observing, that I have laboured in the field at all kinds of toil, tinder a meridian sun ; that I am become alike indifferent to comforts of all kinds. When I am h ungry I ea t—when I am thirsty I di iu k ; receive my mess as another. Hunger is our sauce. We grind in a hand-mill—we b a k e . in the ashes, and live in miserable huts, which ad mit both wind and rain.

This Atlas has been compiled from the best Authori ties, and contains all the late Discoveries of Parry, Wed dell, Denham, and Clapperton. But its principal claim to attention is founded on the entire novelty of the plan : each Map presents not only the Geographical Outlines of Countries, but a series of numbers affixed to the Moun tains, Rivers, and Cities, which indicate their comparative rank, and enables the Student, by reference to the Table of Classification, to discover their actual magnitude. The Isothermal Chart exhibits the Climate of diffiaent Regions, as determined by Thermometrical Observation, with their most important productions, and presents a striking illus tration of the diversity existing in the same Latitudes ac cording to the situation of Countries. In the Moral and Political Chart, the outlines of each country contain a number, showing its population, and several emblems indicating its Government, Religion, and State of Civilization, aneforms, in effect, a Moral Picture of the World.

DETERMINED VORACITY OF HAWKS.- A few days since, as a steam-packet was crossing from Southampton to the Isle of Wight, a hawk was observed chasing a sea gull, and after making several stoops at its prey, it broke the wing of the unfortunate which fell in the packet, whither it was followed by the hawk, taut in vain, as the latter was driven off by the passengers. The hawk then fled towar , ls the shore, and shortly after wards returned with two other hawks, and the three birds tried to gain possession of the sea gull with such perseverance, that two of them were taken by the paqsen gers, and the third made its escape.--, Cheltenham Chron. From every quarter we receive accounts of the iniury occasioned by the rising of the floods, which apprar to be, both in depth and extent, absolutely unprecedented. At Lewes two springs, which had never broken out be fore, rose suddenly a few eays ago in the Cliff, near the 'Wheatshcaf public-house, the lower rooms of which have been filled with water. On Pcvensey Levels the mischief done is incalculable. The land is under water to a depth of several feet ; and on all sides the barley and oats have been, as we anticipated last week would b e the case, very seriously injured. The water in a well on the grounds of Mr. lattowicx, at Ilangleton, has risen within the last few days no less than sixty feet. One farmer alone at P c ven,ey has 400 acres uader water,..-Brietwe Gazette, TuE STATE OF 'ERA CRt'Z, TO TILE INUABITANTs. Fellow-citizens,—When, after numerous and terrible convulsions, our political horizon began to assume a serene aspect, and to afford us the presage of many days of tranquillity and happiness, it was natural, that, wearied with long suffering, our hearts should give a ready reception to the consoling idea of living in the bosom of our families, and tran quilly enjoying the invaluable gifts which the Su preme Author of all things has, with so bountiful a hand, distributed to us.

While such were our anticipations, our implacable enemies, jealous of our welfare—envious of the glorj of the Itepublic— disappointed in their hope of governing us by in trigue, or of involving us in fresh difficulties, through internal divisions—and, in fine, fearing that the consolidation of an admirable system would he fol lowed by the striking and speedy downfall of their crazy thrones, monuments of their oppression, and of our disgrace—they have perfidiously decreed the slavery of this fine country ; have put forth the last effort of their expiring strength, are now approach ing our coast, on the chimerical project of re-con quering us. " You cannot doubt it, fellow-countrymen, the language of the purest truth flows from my lips. This is net one of those despicable stratagems often used by a perfidious Minister, who, perhaps, might have an understanding with our enemies, to accus tom you to doubt, and make you be taken unpre pared at the time, when you ought to be most on the alert. The official and questionable accounts which have reached me, those obtained by the supreme Government of the Federation through different channels, and those received by various re spectable individuals, are certain, and liable to no kind of doubts. They announce that the enemy's vanguard, which is already ploughing the ocean, amounts to 4,000 men, under the command of the cowardly and sanguinary leader, Barradas, who is now a Brigadier-General of the Spanish armies, and who is to commence the attack upon us ;—that the main body of the enemy's force, according to some protected by a foreign Power, will sail from Spain under the command of the Infitnte Don Francisco de Paula, and will form a junction at the Havannah with the troops already there, in order to co-operate en a grand sca'e in the hostile attack, and to make us bend our necks under the iron yoke of these bar barous tyrants. "But how much are they deceived, my friends! They believe that there are amongst us men so base as to gladly aid their iniquitous plans. They reckon on an imaginary party, which exists only in their in fatuated brains; and they are persuaded by their own folly, that as soon as they present themselves upon our coasts, thousands of Mexicans will hasten to swell their ranks, and assist them in erecting an atrocious throne, for the purpose of beholding them bathe themselves at their leisure in the in nocent blood of our brethren, in order to be after wards decked with the fetters mid chains which have, during nine years, been forging to bind us. " Madmen ! you have to dread the moment when you will be undeceived ! The Mexicans are not the men to succumb to your impotent and Machiavelian attempts! The struggle between slaves and free-men cannot long remain doubtful. Victory will be ours, or we will perish in asserting our tights. Yes, I swear it. But I rely on your determination and patriotism, and that you will all co-operate towards the sacred object which I have in view ; that you will readily obey the voice of the just Government which presides over us; and that you will forthwith prepare your arms to bury them in those perfidious bosoms which at present are pal pitating with joy at the thought of the vengeance they would inflict upon us, and wits are incapable of conceiving any other ideas than those of slavery, bloodshed, devastation, and death. The egotists and the indifferent are not Mexietua, they are un worthy of the name, and do not deserve to exist in the grand Anahuacan " Thus have I briefly described to you the ene mies you have to combat : but you already know them well. Our fields are still stained with the blood of our fathers, relations, and friends. What do I say ? The blood so often shed by them indi cates to us what we have to expect. Would you be slaves? Would you lose the name of Mexicans, and live in ignominy and disgrace ? Theu.unite yourselves with them. Do y ou wish to consolidate your liberty to h e h a ppy, an d to maintain the dig nity of free men ? Then do your duty. Let him who would seek glory or death follow my footsteps. The vanguard has been intru•tted to me, and from this moment I am prepared for the contest. My soul revolts against the torture which is preparing for us, and I would rather live one single day en tirely free, in poverty, than in age, caressed and en riched, under the dominion of the best of tyrants. This is my declaration,—this my final and irrevo cable decision. Can there he a Mexican who thinks differently ? loo; such degradation cannot exist in our breasts. Federation, liberty, independ ence, or death,' is our motto; and whoever may be rash enough to attempt to tear from us those celes tial blessings, shall meet death at the point of our swords. " Venerated manes of Hidalgo, Allende, and Morelos the cry of ' Liberty or death ' was first sounded by you in the ears of the Mexicans.— ' Liberty or death-' your brethren repeat, and are determined to obtain the one or the other. This delightful cry is the sentiment of the whole of North America. Your barbarous enemies wish to give you the latter of the two alternatives, and to deprive you of the formu: but they shall not suc ceed. If by generosity you have not already been sufficiently avenged, now that they come into our hands, you shall be satisfied. Death and extermi nation to those who come with arms in their hands to tread upon our shores, and may the world, asto nished by the efforts of free men, learn to bless the memory of our first martyrs. " My friend s , l et t h e tyrants trem bl e at see i ng us united and prepared to die for our 'sacred right}, and with the decree of his destruction in our hands. Finally, let him know that when a people has once 'WHEAT, English, White, per 701 b. !led ------.

One of the most painful circumstances we ever recorded, and which has excited every where the deepest regret, occurred at Knockhill, near Eccle fechan, betwixt the night of Monday and the morn ing of Tuesday, the 15th current. The present oc• cupant of the mansion-house at Knockhill, is, com paratively speaking, a stranger in Annandale, having arrived only a few weeks ago. His servants, how ever had been long in the place, and one of them, it appears, had contracted an intimacy with a neigh bouring miller—a young man of the name of Thos. Bell. Before the heads of the family arrived, access to the servants was sufficiently easy, and though a stricter discipline was adopted afterwards, the miller on the unfortunate night alluded to, determined to see his sweetheart at all hazards. With this view he repaired to Knockhill at the hour of midnight, and reached the lower story by squeezing his body through the iron " staunchells," though they scarcely seem wide enough to admit a cat. The footman's apartment is right above the window by which the other entered ; Tuesday was washing day, when the maidens required to be early astir, and while en deavouring to keep himself awake over a book, that he might rouse them, as he had promised, at the hour appointed, he heard a noise and descended the stair to ascertain the cause. By this time the noise had ceased, and though he searched everywhere, he found all right. Again he returned to his room and con flatted reading till near the hour of one. lie then went down stairs a second time, and when near', the bottom was astonished to see a man running quickly into the laundry without either coat, hat, or shoes. The footman followed, traced the intruder to a closet of the apartment just named, and then called on him, as he valued his personal safety, to state who he was, and what he wanted. To this question he received no answer, and his suspicions of the man's intentions were increased when he found the closet-door made fast from within. As it was possible the man might have confederates, he proceeded to awaken a fellow-servant and another person, a bell-hanger, who happened to be sleeping in the house at the time. His next care was to procure his master's gun, (loaded with small shot), and armed with it, and followed by his companions, he repaired a second time to the laundry. The closet-door was now unfastened,and on pushing it ajar he beheld the same person making his way through the window—a task of great difficulty from the closeness of the bars. Again he called on the intruder to give his name, and explain what he was doing in such a place, at such an hour, adding emphatically, " Speak, or I'll fire !" Still no answer was re turned, a most unfortunate circumstance, for in a moment the fatal trigger was touched and drawn, and the unfortunate youth mortally wounded. Almost simultaneously with the report of the musket, he dropped from the window, feebly exclaiming, " Oh, the lasses," and in less than three t;inutes was a lifeless corpse. The scene that followed was heart-rending in the extreme. The deceased was far above the character of a robber, and his errand to Knockhill, was to visit a girl to whom he was at tached, and about to be married; and though be ha', l 4 chosen a most unsuitable hour, and w;s farther blameable in concealing his name 4 consternation was depleted in every cmlntenance, when the real cir cumstances of the case were ascertained, and the full extent of the calamity discovered. The feelings of the girl it is impossible to dcae - eibe ; but altoge ther it was most affecting to see those who were so soon to be united in matrimony—the one a life less corpse, and the other, so long as consciousness remained, betiding over the bleeding body, and bathing it with her tears. The Sheriff has investi gated the case fully, and all that can be said at pre- : sent is, tialt the event was rwest unfortnate, .and ‘l will r e mi n d some o f our re.i:rs, from the near neighbourhood of the locality and other circum stances(iit ion o r t. . f the Fair beautiful e u a t e li e f n u l o f ba K l la il l e V 4e vr t, dl e ttn A t i r n a z.. - fries Courier, covering ; but fatigue is our's, and we slo e ' ) well as if'on beds of down.

Is it, I ask, no punish ment to be thus sent seventeen thousand miles from my native country ? Gracious God ! could the rising youth but have a single glance oF the prisoner in New South Wales, they would surely shun the temptation to crime. The slightest offence provokes flogging ; insolence is the grand bug-bear in the colony ; for this I have seen some men sent to au iron-gang, to wolk in chains, and he hali•famished, or tied up to re ceive the ignominious punishment of 50 or 75 lashes. Shame on the name of Englishme n A man, who calls himself a settler, first imposes upon his slaves and goads them on to speak, and then drags them before a magistrate to b e lashed and tortured for insolence ! It is useless to murmur, for complaint is crime in this dread- ful spot. A master up the country is a petkx King, and the spirit in which he exercises his slave e i'eel a is tenfold degradation here ; we f ee l th at we arc truly ,st o diabolic all. to paltry tyrants, who seem as if t h ey were ( f . ,\I born to add to the stings and tortur es o f a power wretch er s diiaL I m is taxed. wretched criminal. It is this feeling which leads to that apathy complained of amongst servants. If a Government servant sees his master's p ro . perty going to ruin, it is ten to one that he passes on and takes no notice : he argues that it is no interest of his, and thus the settler, by not studying his men's interest, forgets his ow n . The men receive no wages, and not sufficient clothing. True, the authorities w' A il say, < Why do you not complain to us and it shah he re medied ;' but do you 01;14: that many will or dare complain, when they know the authorities will support the settler, and that the master is sure to take his revenge Tea, sugar, and t o . baceo, are called indulgences, and rest \vitt) the discretion of the master, who selhn t forgets to a use his power like a giant.

Why is man debarred all chance of liberty whose conduct may be irreproachable ? Much of the misery and crime committed by convicts may be attributed to the alaMst total extinction of their hopes of liberty, As to myself, I once thought of a mitintlan, but all hopes ar e go ne ; I am like a piece of mechanism ; my spirit is so much broken by disappointments, a nd hard s hip s , th a t I feel a dreadful spirit of indifference creep upon me —my life appears a blank, and futurity is my only source of expectation.
