COMMUNICATION WITH THE PACIFIC. (From the Liverpool Standard.) We have noticed a work written by Mr. IPGeachy, Crown Surveyor, Jamaica, in which he propounds a plan of rapid communication, by steam navigation and rail ways, between the eastern and western hemispheres. The author has evidently devoted much of his attention to the subject, and his suggestions appear to us to be The plan worthy of the serious consideration of theßoard b b Trade, and of the general mercantile community. plan embraces, in the first instance, what it is assumed may be accomplished by continueus lines of rapid steam ship and railway communication along the coast o f N o r th America, from Halifax to Tambo Bay , on the west side of Florida, thence to Havannah, across the island; thence to Jamaica, and thence to the Isthmus of Panama, which it is proposed to cross by railway, and thus obtain ready access to the Pacific Ocean. He properly considers, that if such a scheme were carried out (either by a great joint stock company, or by the concurrent operations of the respective Governments through whose territories the lines of railway would pass), Panama would become the grand point of commercial concentration. The subject recalls to memory a project which we have entertained for many years, and which, though much less comprehensive than our author's, would, we think, accomplish more effectually one of the prime ob jects which he has in view, and if completed under Bri tish auspices, would be of incalculable advantage, not only as regards our trade, but as affecting our national and colonial security in reference to the whole of the wester* world. A railway (as proposed by Mr. Peachy) across the Isthmus of Darien, would, un doubtedly, be highly advantageous, but our plan would comprise, in addition to this—or rather as the more im portant—a canal of sufficient size to admit of the pas sage of the largest ships. The idea is by no means new, and we had long hoped that our Government would have taken the project up; but though it has been frequently talked of from time to time, over a series of years, it appears to have again fallen into abeyance. Some years ago the Admiralty ordered a survey of the isthmus with a view of forming a communication between the two mighty oceans, and the late Captain Forster, RN., of the Chanticleer gun-brig (son of the Rev. Mr. Forster, of Woodplumpton, near Preston), was appointed to con duct the expedition, which he did successfully to a cer tain point, when his death* deprived his country of his further services. We are not aware of any farther effort having since been made on the part of our Govern raent to renew the survey, and arrange for the purchase of the requisite land. All travellers, however, who have Grossed the isthmus, and amongst them latterly Captain Liott (the superintendent of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company) concur in opinion that a railway may be formed at no very extraordinary cost, and there can be no doubt but that, with the engineering experience and appliances of the present day, an ample ship canal may be formed, a choice of several points more or less eligible also presenting themselves. The difference in the levels of the two oceans (of, we believe, about 70 feet) would form ne obstacle, as locks might as readily and safely be employed as in our ordinary canals, not withstanding the respective breadths of the two oceans. The isthmus is but thirty miles across at one place, and the highest land not above 640 feet above the level of the Pacific. It is said that a company of French gentlemen contemplate the project of a communication between the two ; but it does not appear that they have yet com menced operations, and it is high time that England shot adept the motto "carpe diem," and bestir herself while she may. She has but few possessions, and these comparatively minute and far between, on the South American continent—namely, Damerara and Essequibo, British Guiana, and Honduras. The recent "doings" of the United States of America, and their grasping at new territorial dominion in Mexico, California, &c., ren der it imperative in us to endeavour to obtain by fair means, a further footing in that country. Our proposi tion, therefore, is that a strip of land of some consider. able breadth should, after survey, be selected for a slip canal across the isthmus, and that negotiations should bs made by oar Government for its purchase, and if possi ble its integrity under the flag. The canal might then readily be formed either by the Government or a joint stock company. The purchase could, in all probability, be easily effected, for the Government of Panama is proverbially poor, and the commerce which such a canal would bring to themselves would be an inducement to accede to moderate terms. The advantages of such a project appear to us to be so obvious as to supersede the necessity of detail. We should, in the first place, hold the key to the Pa cific and its boundless shores on the west of both the American continents, and a ready access for European shipping would be afforded to all the ports in the North and South Pacific, from California (or even farther north) to the southern extremity of Chili. No ship, sailing or steam, bound direct to Valparaiso, Lima, or Guayaquil, would require to double the stormy apex of the South American continent, Cape Horn, if this canal were opened out to them. To reach most of the principal ports, they would save some thousands of miles of sailing. Our own ships might pay a moderate toll for passing through tin canal, and foreigners something more. All, indeed, would gladly pay a considerable sum to save time, tear and wear, wages, &c., and a t th e same t i me t h e western coats of the Americas would be commercially ap proximated, and the trade probably doubled. Direct steam and sailing conveyance could also be had from Panama to Canton, and also to New Zealand and New Holland, &c. Another grand advantage of a ship canal ostr a railway across the isthmus would be that the expense, inconvenience, and loss arising from trans-shipments would be entirely done away with and Panama would, moreover (warehouses being con strutted), become a grand depot for British and Europete goods tend manufactures, as well as for American pro duce,—to be dispensed as required throughout the severe countries in the two hemispheres. • This amiable young man was drowned from a canoe in the Rio Chagre, but whether through the treachery of eomc of the natives, or by accident, was not precisely ascertained. TUE RAILROAD TO TIIE PACIFIC OCEAN. (From the New York Herald.) Since we first gave this subject our attention, we have examined it in all its details, and the more we have examined it, the more we are convinced of its great importance and benefit to the United States in a corn raercial and political point of view, and as the means of accelerating the progress of civilisation over the habitable world. On the one side we have Europe, with a population of nearly 230,000,000 of human beings, and a super ficies of 4,075,425 square miles ; and Africa with a supposed area of 12,000,000 square miles, and a popu lation supposed to amount to 60,000,000 ; making a -population_ on one sid e o f us o f 310,000,000 of people. We cirri cross over to the c on ti nents o f N ort h and South' America—the former of which contains an area of 9,078,000 square miles, and a population of 33,748,000; and the latter an area of 6,676,000 square miles, and a population of 15,497.840 people ; both containing greater quantity of cultivatable land than the rest of the world besides. The most direct route from Europe to our continent is from latitude 50 north to 41. On the other side of us we have, at a distance of some 5,000 miles from our westernmost boundary, the whole of 4.sit and Australia, comprising an area of 18,243,000 square miles, and a population of over 706,000,000 of human beings. The population of Europe, on the one side, is above the 40th parallel of north latitude, and on the other side two-thirds of the population of Asia lit rigrth of the 20th parallel of north latitude. Mr. Whit nay proposes to connect Europe and Asia by steam across our conti nent, b y means of a great railroad to the Pacific —passin g over a distance of some 2,400 miles, through a territory, now a wilderness, containing a soil unequalled for richness and fertility, but which cannot be settled by civilised man, in consequence of the want of channels of communication. This railroad would make us the centre, and be itself the thoroughfare for both. Let us see how much it would shorten the communica tion between England and China as an example. The sailing distance by the old way, around the Cape of Good Hope, is generally computed to be 18,000 miles, and taking from fou r t o s i x mont h s to accomplish it. By a railroad across the United States the distance would be as follows, viz.:— From England to New York ... 3,000 miles. From New York to the mouth of the Co lumbia, or to San Francisco Bay From either of these places to China direct 5,400 „ Making the total distance 11,400 miles. Or a saving of mor e th an 6 ,000 miles in point of dis twice. Let us see how much quicker in point of time the connexion between these far distant countries would be by railroad. At fifteen miles per hour, as is proposed for the steamers, it will require eight and a half days from England to New York, or other ports. But say From New York to the Pacific, 3,000 miles, by railroad, at 30 miles per hour, allowing one day for detention . From the Pacific coast to Chang-hae in China, 7 mouth of the Yang-tse keang, which crosses the great canal, where all the commerce of the vast empire centres, is 5,400 miles ; at 1.5 miles per hour (which can be performed as easily on the Pacific as 12 on the Atlan tic), allowing one day for coaling, &c....... 16 „ From London, via New York, to Chang-liae... 31 As the voyag as now performed takes at the least four months, or 120 days, we have a saving of 89 days in farmer of the railroad. These tables refer to the communication between Europe and China. Let us see how it would affect the 1 communication between the United States and China. The distance between New York and China, as the voyage is now performed, is 18,000 miles. By railroad, iic., from New York to the Columbia 3,000 And to China 5,400-5,400 miles. Or a difference of nearly 10,000 miles. And the number of days in which the distance would be accomplished lis he d is twenty ; so th at, in fact, we would be within twenty one days of China. T road is by he plan by which Mr. Whitney propos e d t o construct ils d . O lands, for mo ne y an d labour, in such amountsg of as shall t suit the ability of the settler, so that every man in our country, however small ry tion of all the old his means, and all the over world, can have a home, with inc i l l u ' t ' plenty, com fort, virtue, and happiness, placed direr if in the centre It appears of all the world, and on its grand high wa y to us that this project must succeed—thait must draw to it all the enterprise of th e wor ld , it is so Ive r ber ev the results to be produced so stupendous, sogsr* thata" the mind on investigation cannot resist it, a n d that when it is commenced, a rush will be made forithee land ,- that settlement and population will precede it, and if once begun must go on, and cannot be stopped. We also believe that Mr. Whitney's plan is the only plan, and t h e VIDY means by which A; etal be dvn©. J THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 29, 1846. THE AFFAIRS OF SPAIN. MADRID, OCT. 19.—Letters were received here this morning from Cadiz, dated the 15th. The English squadron was at that date at some distance off the Isle of Leon. It was to have left for the Mediterranean on the 17th, for the purpose of cruising along the eastern coast of Spain. A good deal of excitement prevails throughout the southern provinces, where the population wa s i n a l mos t daily expectation f hearing of the landing of Cabrera on some part of the coast. When the Spartan frigate was seen off Valencia the people could scarcely be per. suaded that the Carlist chief was not on board. We also learn that the new works at Gibraltar are going on with surprising activity. Nothing can exceed the energy of the Governor in pressing on their comple tion. He is at the works at five o'clock in the morning, where he personally inspects everything. There are about 1,000 convicts employed. It would appear that the new water-line batteries are of the most formidable description. The effect of the guns, a fleur d'eau, on ships must be terrible. ft is understood that the Portuguese Government have requested the Spanish to send troops to the frontier of Portugal; and the necessary orders have been given in consequence. This explains the movement of troops in Galicia which I noticed a day or two ago. It is pre tended that the Spanish soldiers will not cross the fron tier, and it is said that Senor Isturitz has given assu rances to that effect. The word of Senor Isturitz is, however, but poor security ; with examples of bad faith so fresh in our memory, it would be as well to place no confidence in the promises or aszuransos. of the present Cabinet. _ _ _ A third bull-fight took place yesterday in the plaza . Mayor. The wetness of the day, and the repetition of nearly the same ceremonies producing a monotonous effect, deprived the spectacle of the enlivening character of the previous days. The crowd, notwithstanding, was immense ; as where are bull-fights that Spaniards do not congregate in thousands and tens of thousands? Pan y toms are as much objects of equal necessity at this day as they were in the time of Jovellanos. The Queen, besides, was fatigued from the attendance of the previous day, as well as the palace ball. One cir cumstance occurred which must not be passed unnoticed. As the Queen was leaving the square the usual respectful salutes were paid her. But when Munoz and Maria Christina appeared a hiss broke from the assembled crowd. Munoz put his head to the car riage windows, but hastily drew it back again when ho beheld the angry countenances of the multitude. Maria Christina also looked at the window, and endeavoured to smile and nodded her head, but the hiss did not cease ; on the contrary, the sight of the Duchess of Rianasres seemed to render still stronger the signs of dislike to her person. She hastily drew back to the corner of the car riage, but the unpleasant sound followed as it moved off. Her great anxiety to parade her children, by Munoz, an every occasion, since her daughter's marriage, has added to the feeling of dislike with which this unhappy lady is regarded. Spaniards, who are patient, to a fault, of honours paid to downright royalty, are offended at any one else encroaching on them. The Queen- Mother and her children—l do not allude to the Queen and the Infanta—were at M. Bresson's ball last night ; and the same circumstance was noticed on which I re marked yesterday, of their occupying chairs either higher or on a level with the daughters of the Infanta Don Francisco de Paula. The elder of these two children has just been created Countess of Castilleja, and the other Marchioness of Vista Alegre. Colonel Fitch arrived here at five o'clock this morning, from Cadiz and Gibraltar. He re ac h e d th e f ormes p l ace , on the evening of the 15th, and left at midnight for :Madrid. He has brought dispatches from Sir B. Wilson and the Admiral. On his arrival he at once set out for Aranjuez, where Mr. Bulwer has been staying for the last few days, to deliver his dispatches. In giving a description of the ball at the French Am. bassador's last night, the Popular—one of the hangers on of the Government—says, " the English Ambassador was present." This is incorrect ; Mr. Bulwer has been at Aranjuez for the last three days. The Duke of Aumale is expected to set out for France to-morrow ; and the Infanta and the Duke of Montpen sier leave on the 221 One of the cabateros en plaza in Saturday's bull-fight is said to have died last night, in consequence of the severe bruises he received in his encounter, and fall from his horse. What matters the life of a human being when lost to give sport to Most Serene French Princes ? Their Highnesses applauded as obstreperously as the most trturomaquish manolo in the crowd. To give them occasion to do so a dozen lives are well sacrificed. The Three per Cents. are quoted at 35k for cash; the Four per Cents., at 213-; the Five per Cents., at 21:1; the Debt without Interest, at G i l; Nonconsolidated Vales, at Si; Coupons, at 203. Exchange, 363. BAYONNE, OCT. 22, 4 O'CLOCK, A.M.—His Royal High ness the Duke d'Aumalc has just reached our city on his return from Madrid. The bad state of the roads and incessant heavy rains in the Basque provinces have much retarded the Prince's journey, as ho was expected here at an early hour this afternoon. The Duke and Duchess de linntpensier, it is now ar• ranged, are to sleep at Tolossa on the 25th, breakfast ai frun the next morning, and enter Bayonne on the after. noon of that day.—Tintes. IMPROVEMENT of the WESTERN FISHERIES. The following gratifying announcement appears in the Dublin Evening Post of Saturday : " We are happy to perceive, from the following letter, in reply to an application to the Lords of the Admiralty for a school ship for the training of able seamen, as well as from other sources of information to which we have gad access, that active exertions are being made for the .mprovement of the condition of the Claddagh fisher :nen, and the encouragement of the fisheries on the western coast. " The Rev. Mr. Rush, to whom this letter is addressed, is co-operating with the friends of the long reglected ishermen of the west in the establishment of a Nautical and Fishery Institution at the Claddagh, where skilful hands may be trained up for the development of the deep iea fisheries, and a nautical education to be given to the ;rowing generation of that populous district. Every legitimate encouragement on the part of the Govern ment will, we are sure, be afforded to any project which rims at the encouragement of the fisheries, and the raining of able seamen for our naval and merchant ser vice. However incredible the fact may appear, still it is true that the fishing colony of Claddagh (the largest in the empire) is not provided either with a fish market, sheds, salt, or the means of communication with the town of Galway, which every well-regulated fishing community should possess, for the proper preservation of a wholesome article o f food. We trust the attention the Government will be turned to those practical -neasures, and we are glad to have it in our power to ay that the peaceable conduct of the Claddegh nen, and their unwillingness to join in the provision riots at Galway, entitle them to share in measures of im provement at the hands of a paternal Administration. 44 4 " Admiralty, Oct. 14. Sir,—ln reply to your letter, lam commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to acquaint you, for the information of the Galway Bay Fishing Corn tnittee, that their Lordships are sorry that a compliance 'with the request made by the Committee is not compa tible either with the resources or practice of the Board of Admiralty ; but if the Committee should think it d^sirable,:and would send twenty boys, between fourteen and sixteen years of age, and well grown and stout, by any steamer, to the Admiral at Cork, their passage there and maintenance would be paid by the Admiral, and if found fit, on examination, for her Majesty's ser vice, they would be entered accordingly.—l am, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, _ _ _ " W.

" Sir,—l am directed by Rear-Admiral Sir Hugh Pigot to request, with reference to your application to the Lord Commissioners of the Admiralty, that you will withhold sending boys to Cork for the present, as in the course of three or four days a man-of-war will be ordered to Galway for the winter months, when the lads can be sent on board for examination and entry, if in all re spects fit under the regulatious.—l am, Sir, your very obedient servant, " JOHN W.

TEE ARCIIDEACON OF SURREY'S GENERAL VISI TATION.—On Tuesday the Venerable William Dealtry, D.D., Rector of Clapham, who was presented to the Archdeaconry of Surrey on the elevation of Dr. Wilber force (the present Bishop of Oxford) to the deanery of Westminster, held his visitation at St. Saviour's Church, Southwark. Nearly the whole of the clergy of the arch deaconry were present. Prayers were read by the Rev. J. Benson, chaplain of St. Saviour's, and the sermon was preached by the Rev. G. Lewis, Minister of St. Peter's, Southwark, from the 4th chapter and 27th verse of the Second Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians. The register having been called, the Venerable Arch. deacon delivered his charge. INDIAN CORN.—The quantity of Indian corn ex ported from this port previous to the lit of September of this year is estimated at 562,000 bushels. From Philadelphia, during the same period, it amounted to 105,707 bushels, and from New Orleans, 941,589 sacks. The export of this article from Boston and Baltimore each, was probably larger than from Philadelphia. The product of this country this year is estimated by some at 500,000,000 of bushels. The census of 1840 states the product of that year to have been 377,531,875 bushels. The news received by the steamer yesterday not only announces an advance in the price of this a n d ot h er articles, but warrants the belief that the exports from the United States to Europe during the next eight months will be immense. Cotton, rice, tobacco, and all sorts of bread stuffs, beef, pork, lard, cheese, ap p les, &e., will now b e sent out.—New YorkEwning oft, AMERICAN AFFAIRS. NEW YORK, SEPT. 30.—During the last two weeks we have had various rumours as to propositions said to have been made by this Government to Mexico in refer ence to a negotiation for the restoration of peace. That some suggestion of this character has been made, I con sider certain ; but whether any reply, and if any, what has been received from Mexico, the public aro in igno rance. Indeed, the Administration, on all matters in reference to the Mexican war, preserve a studied si lence ; nor am I able to assign a satisfactory reason for this caution. There are those who think, and so express them selves, that the Government commenced the war under the most erroneous impressions, and in complete igno rance of the manner in which it should be conducted to bring about a speedy and triumphant issue. The Ad ministration considered the Mexican a poor distracted people, without the means of self-defence, and destitute of the money necessary to procure those means. So thinking, and not having an elevated idea of the personal bravery of the Mexicans, the conclusion was, no doubt, that they would be incapable of anything like a syste matic resistance to a powerful invading army. In the arrangements which the Government proceeded to make no reference was had to the climate ; none to the impracticability of moving an army of 15,000 or 20,000 men during the summer months. The means of transport seem to have been en tirely forgotten until the moment arrived when they were wanted. The roads, the ravines, and the mountains afforded the most formidable difficulties, which seem not to have been taken into calculation as presenting impediments and delays of a ruinous character. It was thought by the friends of the Government, that three or four months were all that was necessary to overrun Mexico. We are now in the fifth month of the war, and nothing comparatively has been effected ; and yet we have done all that could be done under this Administration. The impression is universal, or nearly so, that we are now about to press our army forward, and, with as little delay as may be, drive the Mexicans into their moun tains, and then quietly take possession of their country. This idea is about as visionary as was their first, which was, that in ninety days an invading army would be in peaceable possession of the halls of the Montesurnas. It is now understood that the mediation of Great Britain has been declined by this Government. The Chelan, the acknowledged Government organ at Washington, has treated this friendly tender of kind offices in a rude and indelicate manner. I trust, and sincerely hope, that in this particular the organ does not fairly represent the feelings of the Execu tive, and that the mediation will be declined at least in a courteous and gentlemanly manner. How the British Premier will feel on the occasion is not for me to judge. The rejection of this offer is a part of the policy by which the present Administration is and will continue to be governed, so long as it remains in power. That policy forbid.: and will prohibit all inter ference, friendly or unfriendly, of any of the European Powers in the affairs of this continent. It is, I think, becoming more popular daily, aad must, sooner er later, give rise to serious collisions between the Governments of the two hemispheres. There are those in the United States who hope and believe that they will live to see the day when this whole continent will be under one Go vernment, and that a Federal Government ; or, in other words, a Government of States. We have no late news from any section of the in. vading army, except a rumour this day, not well authen. ticated, but yet generally believed, that General Woo' has taken possession, without opposition, of Santa Fe. Such a state of things has been anticipated for several weeks. All accounts have agreed in the statement that there were no Mexican troops in Santa Fe ; and cons°. quently that General Wool, who is a gallant and expe- rienced officer, would have no fighting to do in that quarter. _ On the whole, there is little or no change in the aspect of Mexican affairs and this country. As yet no injury has Leen done to Mexico. She has expended no money in war preparations, and appears to stand perfectly still, waiting our movements. What will be Santa Anna's policy none seems to know. lle professes and announces himself " the slave of public opinion." Consequently, if the Mexican people are for war, ho is for war. Now, the Mexicans have suffered so little, and gained so much by the war, that they seem to consider it child's play, and apparently have no objection to its continuance. The opposite of this is the condition of the United States, arid, if peace were to take place to morrow, this Government could not close its account of war expenditures fur less than 50,000,000 dols. The Administration have not yet experienced any in convenience from the want ofmoney, but soon must, if their war expenditures are to continue at the extravagant rate they have been during the last five months. When war was declared, they had over 12,000,000 dols. surplus on deposit in the banks ; more than two-thirds of that is expended. All the revenue collected is in like manner ' expended, and the President was authorised to issue 10,000,000 dols. in Treasury notes, which has in part been done, and expended. Such is the state of the finances. The different state elections are now coming on. So far as they have progressed the result is favourable to the Whig cause. The two most important states in the Union, Penn sylvania and New York, are both doubtful. So far as the tariff of 1842 is concerned, Pennsylvania will undoubtedly return members to Congress favourable to a repeal of the present and the re-enactment of the Act of 1842. But whether they will be Whigs or the friends of the present Administration on other subjects is very doubtful. New York will be warmly contested. Both parties entertain, or appear to do so, strong hopes of success. My own opinion, after closely examining the question, is, that the Locofocos have decidedly the best chance of victory. Indeed ; it can hardly bo said that I have a doubt on the subject. OCTOBER 8. You are advised of carelessness of the Boston post office, which caused about 7,000 letters, intended for the last steamer, to be left behind. These letters have been returned to the New Yor k post-office, and will be for warded by the Great Western, which sails to -day. Among them is ono for you. Santa Fe': is in quiet possession of a division of the American army, commanded by General Wool. Since the date of my last, so far as we have heard, the troops have not changed position ; but the most active) preparations are making for an onward move. It is understood that the Government have de termined on a Radical change of their system for ear - rying on the war against the Mexicans. The army of the United States entered the territory of Mexico with assurances and proclamations that the Mexicans and their property should be protected from all injury, pro vided that they (the citizens) would remain in their houses, pursuing their usual avocations ; and these pro clamations added that whatever supplies were required for the army, and were furnished by the Mexicans, should be promptly paid for by the commanders ordering or re ceiving them. In this way the war has been carried on for nearly five months; and, so far as I can learn, the Mexicans can have no objection to continue it on the same terms, But it is bnattaing ruinously expensive to this Govern ment, while it is doing, substantially, no harm to their enemies. Under such circumstances, the Administra tion finds it necessary to change their system; and it is now confide n tly asser t e d t h at t h e C a bi net h ave deter mined that, hereafter, the inhabitants shall furnish such American troops as may be in their vicinity with neces• caries without any charge whatsoever. Indeed, it is believed that such orders, in effect, have already been issued from the proper department. It is not my intention to discuss the merits of this question under existing circumstances, and the manner in which we invaded the territory of Mexico. Nor do I mean to express any opinion as to the policy of this new delaration of war, after the pledges made by oar proclamations, &c., at the commencement of this conflict. These topics I leave to the animadversion of you and your readers. All I will say is, that under such a system, and when such a people arc the victims of it, the most sanguinary results may be anticipated. Heretofore this Government has experienced no incon venience from the want of money, nor do the Adminis tration even now feel it. But before the month of Novena ber expires I apprehend they will be pinched. Indeed, the Secretary of the Treasury has recently exhibited some "premonitory symptoms" of approaching want. Mr. Wal ker, the Secretary, has been here for several days norni• nally to make arrangements for carryinginto effect the Sub- Treasury and Warehouse Bills, but really, as many suspect, to borrow money on Treasury notes, or in some other way. He has made an application to our city banks for 4,000,000 dols., on Treasury notes, bearing an interest of five per cent. per annum, pay able in twelve months. This the banks have declined, but have offered him the money at six per cent, per annum. Congress, at their last session, authorised him to borrow 10,000,000 dols. on Treasury notes, or on Six per Cent. Stock, or a part of each. lle has not yet attempted to dispose of any part of the stock. The money-market, at present, is quite easy, and there is a considerable amount of idle money, waiting, it is sup posed, for Government to come into market. It is well known that their necessities will compel them soon to borrow 10,000,000 dole. or 15,000,000 duls. A loan for that amount would readily be taken at par, or a fraction above it, for a Six per Cent. Stock. From Santa Anna we hear nothing. ; he remains perfectly still ; nor do wo hear a word as to his in tended policy or his wishes. Ho appears disposed to take no active part until the new Congress shall have been chosen and convened, and by some action evidence the policy, as to the question of peace or war, they would recommend. Whatever that policy may be, it is mare than probable Santa Anna will not attempt to thwart it ; but, on the contrary, as "the slave of public opinion," will use his influence to carry it into effect. If he should assume that position—and I repeat that I think he will—nothing in the way of ne gotiation can be effected before January, 1847, inasmuch as the Mexican Congress will not convene before De cember. In addition to which, the Spanish race, and all connected therewith, are everlasting negotiators. Since the sailing on the Ist of the last steamer no thing has transpired in relation to the mediation, which, it is understood, was courteously declined. You may consider it as the settled policy of the party in power, and I think a majority of their opponents, that they will not permit any European interference with the people or astablished Governments on this continent. The opinion is certainly gaining ground here, that all these Govern _ meats, sooner or later, must and will, as soverei g n and independent s t a t e s, b e annexe d un d er a f e d era l Govern- reed to the United States. The system of free trade is producing some excite ment in Can a d a . I n t h e di scuss i ons on this subject, they say the Imperial Government has put the United States in the home-market on a footing with Canada; that the interchange of commodities which this will lead to, and the friendly feelings which will arise out of it between the Americans and the Canadians, may pro duce results never antieipatecl by either party. They speak cautiously, but in language net to be mistaken cr misunderstood. California, by proclamation of Commodore Sloat, and New Mexico, by a similar process of General Kearney, are declared to be a part of the United States, and as such annexed to the Federal Union. Our city is in an uproar. Public meetings are being held preparatory to the election. In this city the Whig party will be completely defeated, by a majority against them of not less than 4,000. I think it highly probable that the same result awaits them throughout the state ; but that is more doubtful.—Times. A GENEVESE TRAVELLED. LIABILITY OF LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC INSTITUTIONS TO PAROCHIAL RATES.-NEW POINT. THE PARISH OF ST. ALPHAGE, GREENWICH, V. THE TRUSTEES OF THE GREENWICH SOCIETY FOR THE ACQUISITION AND DIFFUSION OF USEFUL KNOW LEDGE.—A case of very considerable importance, in re gard to this and similar societies, came on for adjudica tion on Saturday before Mr. Train, at the Greenwich police-court, the trustees of the abovenamed institution having been summoned by the parochial authorities for the sums of 4/. 18s. 4d. poor-rate, and 11. Bs. highway rate. The question excited considerable interest. Mr. James, solicitor and vestry clerk of the parish, attended to support the summons ; and Mr. J. Meadows White, solicitor, of Lincoln's Inn-fields, and a trustee of the institution, to oppose the rate. Mr. James, in opening the case for the parish, stated that he believed no question would arise as to the amount of the rate made in this instance, the point being whether this institution came within the Act of 6 and 7 Tictosta, cap. 36, whiffs exempted buildings erected 'solely for the ad vancement of literature, science, and the fine arts, from contributing to the local rates. He contended that it did not ; and he should call on Mr. White, one of the trus tees, to show that the institution was founded and car ried on agreeably to that Act, one of the provisions of which was that the building should not be let for any purpose which might give a dividend or profit to the members. Now, in a prospectus issued by the society, there was an announcement that the hall, which was capable of holding 1,000 persons, might be hired for lec tures andsother purposes, not of a theological nature, as also several class rooms, on application to the secretary. This had been done, as he should be able to show, and he contended that it was contravention of the Act ; and although the society was partly supported by annual voluntary contributions, very large receipts were ob tained by letting the building for lectures, &c. In the case of the Queen v. Jones, reported in the " Justice of the Peace, it was held by Lord Denman that it was not sufficient for the rules of a society to omit any notice as to not paying a dividend to the members, but it was necessary to have a rule expressly negativing any divi dend ; and in that case the rate was ordered to be paid. As the Greenwich Society had no such rule in their code, the rates had hitherto been paid ; but since that time a new rule (No. 19) had been inserted, to the effect that no dividend should be paid to the mem bers, in respect of such membership, and they had also obtained the certificate of the barrister, Mr. Tidd Pratt, to those amended rules. Upon that, the Greenwich So ciety claimed exception from the payment of local rates ; but the parish authorities insisted that the latter five words of the 19th rule had taken the case out of the Act, and that the society had no more right to claim exemp tion than they had before, as it was clear an arrangement might be made with a member to give a lecture for his own profit. It was relied by the society that the certifi cate of the barrister had exempted the society from the payment of the local rates ; but in the case of the Queen v. Pocock, reported in the " Justice of the Peace," Lord Denman was of opinion that the certificate of the bar rister was not conclusive ; and Mr. Justice Patteson also said, " The certificate was a mere condition precedent to right." Mr. Traill remarked that was clearly so. Mr. James then put in the rate-books of the parish to show that the rates had been duly made, and called John Boyd Jarman, the collector, to prove the demand. Mr. J. M. White at once admitted that fact ; but as the collector was unable to give evidence as to the hall having been let for lectures and other purposes since January, 1814, Mr. James called David Bass, the secretary to the institution, who being shown some prospectuses containing the advertisement for letting the hall, said they were the prospectuses is sued by the soeiety. Mr. James—What is the object of your society ? Mr. Bass—l think the title " The Greenwich So ciety for the Acquisition and Diffusion of Useful Know ledge" recognises its objects. Mr. Traill was of opinion that the term " useful know ledge," was rather too large for the definition. Mr. James concurred. There was nothing in the title about literature, or the fine arts. Mr. Bass—The hall has been let for various purposes, the money for which goes into the general funds of the society. He recollected the hall being let for a meet ing on the subject of Church-rates ; for a meeting on the Corn-laws ; for a meeting respecting the Water men's Pier, after the Lord Mayor had ordered its re moval, very recently ; and t. meeting to petition for the release of Frost, Williams, and Jones. The hall had had also been let to exhibit Tom Thumb, the Ojibbeway Indians, &c. Rooms had also been let for classes and other purposes. The rooms were only let for other pur poses when not in use for the legitimate objects of the society ; he aid not recollect any money ever having been taken at the doors. Mr. James remarked, that he had paid money for admission at the doors. By Mr. White—The society never held those meet ings mentioned, or the exhibitions. They had never hirt:d Tom Thumb or the Ojibbeway Indian:. The rooms had been let, and the money was applied to the purposes of the society ; in fact, for sustaining the in stitution. They have about 1,000 members at present. He believed the 19th rule had been prepared at the sug gestion of Mr. .1 nines. Mr. James replied he never saw it. Mr. Bass—There have been no alterations in the object of the institute since January, 15 32 ,. Mr. James pointed out that in the prospectuses of the society prior to that date no mention was made of letting the hall. This closed the case. Mr. White submittal that the Act had been followed by that society in letter and in ; in fact one of the clauses which allowed the raising of funds otherwise than by annual subscriptions had been framed by Mr. Wise partly in reference to that society. lie now pro posed to put in the minute book of th e b oar d of Gover nors and directors of the parish of G reenw i c h , and to refer to a minute of some proceedings i n re f erence to the 19th rule. date the of s°b lin objected, as the m i nute referred to bore dtelie y, 1844, prior to the necessity for these pry...ceding:4, the claim bein g now fur rates made in 1845. ...The matter was not, pressed. Mr. Traill .aid the point in this case he should have to consider was, whether there had been sufficient shown to justify his issuing a warrant. There were two objec• tions of a technical nature ; first, ought not the society to be described as for the exclusive advancement of science, literature, and the fine arts. Now, it did not ymelpbelerd s . to T l t e e ct s u o r c e i , e a tY nd take say that ; it described the society as for the advance ment That was the construction and diffusion of useful knowledge ; and the smuib;het (pent queition was, whether l the l. uses made of the so which might be put upon those five words—" in respect of membership." s Mr. James replied, e a w i p i t i pl Y o t . : appoint profitn) fi e h ts c o ‘ f ‘ c . c o r i u e t that if' a distress warrant was ld granted the question could be fully raised in the proper r (m o )w p a c ni ,: e. quarter. Mr. Traill was of opinion the whole matter could not be decided in that Court, and the better way would be to let the warrant of distress issue, and then the question could be raised in several ways. It was imma terial to him in what way: the solicitors could agree as to the least expensive and most speedy manner, either by replevin on his warrant, or issuing a mandamus to him, or in an appeal to the Quarter Sessions, who would refer the matter to the Court of Queen's Bench; for really the question h a d never yet b een decided, viz., Can ‘ja society let its premises for other than its own purposes if the receipts are solely applied to objects o f its own use ? Some conversation then ensued between the magis trate and the solicitors on either side, as to the mode to be adopted, Mr. Traill recommending that before the matter went up to the Court of Queen's Bench, all the technicalities in the case should be got rid of ; that the society should make a new law in lieu of the 19th, leaving out the objectionable words ; and that they should also in their title set tit • l forth, that it was founded for the advancement of literature, science, and the fine arts, as it appeared in the preamble of the Act. Mr. Whi te sa i d that should be done, and after some further discussion it was agreed that the warrants should issue, but not be acted on for a few days. THE POOR IN ST.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT OLD COURT. ENDEAVOURING TO EXTORT MONEY FROII MR. PRO THEROE, M.P.—A smartly-dressed young man, named James Newbery, aged 24, described as a groom, was charged with sending letters to Mr. Protheroe, M.P., threatening to charge him with a horrible crime, with the view of thereby extorting money from him. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) The CHIEF BARON summed up, and the jury found the prisoner Guilty. The prisoner was put back for a short time, when he was brought up for judgment, and the CHIEF BARON, after stating that he had been convicted of a must atro cious offence, and that he entirely concurred in the ver dict of the jury, sentenced him to be transported for twenty years. The prisoner, as he left the bar, said, " Thank you, my Lord." At the sitting of the Court Mr. Payne applied to postpone the trial of a person charged with committing a forgery upon the Bank of England, until the next session. The grounds upon which he made the appli cation were, that the bill had only been found against the prisoner on the previous day, that the indictment was a very long one, and that the prisoner's attorney had not had sufficient time to become acquainted with the preoise nature of the charge. Mr. CLARKSON, who was instructed for the prosec tion, said that if the Court thought the reasons that had been urged were sufficient grounds for a postponement of the trial, he had no objection to offer. The CHIEF BARON thought they were quite sufficient In an ordinary civil action a party had eight days al• lowed to prepare a defence, and on a charge of telony, involving such serious consequences to the accused, surely some similar indulgence might be allowed, par. ticularly when the application was made by the pri. soner, who would in the meatime remain in gaol. The trial was accordingly postponed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Jane Saunders, a young woman of respectable appear ance, a dressmaker, was charged before the Lord Mayor with committing various frauds upon her employers. Messrs. Grocock, Copenstake, and Moore, extensive lace merchants and warehousemen, of Cheapside and St. Paul's-churchyard, under the following extraordinary circumstances The prisoner has, since May last, been employed by the firm to make ladies' and children's dresses, and is supposed during that time to have defrauded the firm of money to theamount of 601. She had been accustomed to receive the materials from a Miss Shrimpton, who superintends the department, and who checked off and signed the bills of the workpeople, which was an au thority for the cashier to pay. Some discrepancies in the stock account having been recently discovered, Miss Shrimpton was directed to enter the amounts of all the bills in a book, which, having been last S a t ur d a y com pared with the cash-book, it was a.icertained that the prisoner had that day received 51. more than she was entitled to, by altering her bill from 10s. Bd. to 5/. 10s. Sd., which she had done in the following manner, viz., twenty-two instead of two dresses, at 3s. each, and also twenty-two instead of two, at 2s. each, and in the wrong column prefixing 31. and 21. to the previous 4s. and 3s. Five bills were produced, in which were similar altera tions, showing frauds by the prisoner, amounting to nearly 18/. within these last four or five weeks. The prisoner, who declared positively that the bills were in the same state as when she originally received them, was then fully committed for trial. if 1 A YLEBONE. B Mr. William Coxhead, master of the National School, Hampstead, was charged with having punished in an excessive degree a little boy, name d John Proctor. Some gentlemen connected with the school were in attendance during the proceedings. • The complainant, who was accompanied by his father and mother deposed that on F r id a y l as t, i n consequence of his laughing at another boy, he was ordered by Kelly, a teacher in the first class, tD go into the middle of the school. He did so ; when defendant first beat him with the cane, and then flogged him with the birch. He also struck him with his fist and knocked him down, and he was for some time senseless. George Simmons (another boy) was called, and he spoke as to the caning and flogging. Edward Clements (also a pupil at the school)said that defendant knocked Proctor down with his fist, and he fell against a cupboard. Witness added, " Master gave him the birch as well, and cut a piece of flesh out of his leg. I did not like to see a boy so ill-used, and a part of the time I looked another way." Mrs. Proctor stated that when her child came home from school his stockings were saturated with blood, which had run down into his shoes ; she took him to a surgeon, who said that his head was much injured, and it would probably be some time before he got well. ' The father said that on going to defendant to remon strate with him, he (the latter) told him, that if he had any complaint to make, he had better to do so to the committee. Defendant, in answer to the charge, denied having struck the boy with his fist ; he desired him to hold up his hand to rective a stripe from the cane, which was the common mode of punishment for refractory pupils, hut he refused to do so, and on being laid hold of, he in a struggle fell down; he then kicked at him (defendant), and struck him several times. He certainly did " birch" him for his misconduct, as a lesson to him and the other boys, but he did not consider that he had used any undue severity. He called two boys in support of the state rnent which he had made, and they alleged that the use of the birch was very seldom resorted to. The MAGISTRATE remarked that, as the evidence was of a very conflicting nature, he should not decide the matter himself; and ordered the defendant to enter into his own recognisance to appear at the sessions to answer any indictment. SO UT 1.1 W ARK. Mr. 011ey, of the firm of 011cy and Bridges, coal mer chants, of Shad Thames, was summoned at the instance of Mr. Daniel Benvitt, for sending out a quantity of coals without a ticket, whereby he had incurred a heavy penalty under the lst and 21 Vic., cap. 5. It appeared that Mr. Benvitt had ordered three chaldrons of coals at the defendant's wharf, and on their delivery at his house the carman had no ticket signifying the quantity and qua lit y o f t h e art i cle. As i t was an omission on the part of the firm, which was likely to be detrimental to the purchaser, the complainant therefore, on public grounds, adopted the proceedings. The defendant said no fraud was intended ; that the complainant was present at the wharf and saw the coals weighed and placed in the sacks, and on that account it was not deemed neceonry to semi tickets with them. Mr. SECKER said the words of the Act were as distinct as possible, setting forth that the seller was to produce a ticket to the purchaser on delivery of the coals at his premises; and the 3d section of the Act referred to ad mitted of no qualification, therefore it made no difference in the offence, as to whether the purchaser was present at the wharf and saw the coals weighed, or not. It was the duty of the defendant to have sent the tickets with the coals ; and he (the magistrate), although not be lieving in this instance there was any intention of fraud, still thought that it was a wise provision in the law, in order to guard the public against losses on an article of such consumption ; for in the transit from the wharf to the place of delivery, how easy would it be for the carman to dispose of some of the coals elsewhere, which would be avoided by the production of the ticket agree ably to the words of the Act. 'raking all the circum stances, therefore, into consideration, he should, on the present occasion, mitigate the penalty on the defendant to 103., with costs ; but at the same time it ought to go forth to the trade the necessity of their being parti cular in furnishing the purchasers with tickets on delivery of the coals. LAMBETH. William Durant, who has been in custody for the last week, on the charge of committing a burglary and rob bery at Addington-park, near Croydon, Surrey, the country residence of his Grace the Archbishop of Can terbury, was placed before Mr. Elliott, for final ex amination. Mr. Hodgson, the private secretary of the Right Rev. Prelate and prosecutor, was present, as was also Mr. Humphreys, his Grace's house steward. The evidence extended to a considerable length, but the brief facts of the case are these :—On the morning of Mond a y, th e 19th instant, the servants of his Grace, on coming down stairs at an early hour, found the fas - - tenings of the door opening on to the lawn undone, as if some person from the inside had let himself out, and on examining the drawing-room a pair of candle sticks and various articles were missing. Informa tion •of the robbery was forwarded to the but no trace of the thief was discovered until the night of the Tuesday following, when the prisoner, and a female with whom he had been to a brothel in the vici nity of the Waterloo•road, went to the station-house in Tower-street, when the former charged the latter with robbing him. The woman denied the charge, and said that, amongst other things, he had chargtd her with stealing seven duplicates, when, on searching the place, she found the duplicates under the pillow, and returned them to him. Mr. Roger requested the pritoner to let him see the duplicates, which he reluctantly did ; and, on looking over them, the inspector found that they re lated to such property as that stolen from the mansion of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and he in consequence put some questions to him on the subject. Th o pr i s O ner, after a little fencing, admitted that he had comm i tted a robbery at the Archbishop's, and said, "I don't care a d—n if they transport me." Mr. Roger observed that the property was small to get transported for, upon which the prisoner replied that he should have had much more if the dog had not barked so. It further appeared that the prisoner had been formerly in the service of the Archbishop of . Canterbury, but had b een di sm i ssed for irregular and improper conduct, so that he was very well acquainted with the ways of the house in Addington park. It was also apparent that the p r i soner must have got into the house during evening or night, before the doors bad been closed, as the door had been opened from the inside. The assistants to the pawnbrokers with whom the prisoner had pledged articles belonging to the Arch bishop on the day after the robbery, six domestics be longing to Addington -park, a woman at whose house the prisoner had lodged after the robbery, and where he left part of the stolen property, Inspector Roger and Ser geant Goff were bound over to appear at the next as sizes to be holden for the county of Surrey, to give evi dence against the prisoner, who was fully committed for trial. Mr. NORTON attended at the Court to hear the final examination of William Wilmott Byron, the advertis ing swindler, in order to his being tried at the pre sent session at the Central Criminal Court. The prisoner was committed upon three charges of obtaining money by false representations; and it was also the intention of the magistrate to have sent him for trial for one or more cases of conspiracy with a person named Schooner. On taking the evidence, however, it was found that both parties had acted with such tact and adroitness as to ren der it 411490 i1DP9104149 ico (AM OA Wictimill 1.9/ spiracy. In the course of the evidence the secrets of an " artful dodge," and deeply-laid scheme were disclosed. It will be well recollected that the prisoner and others of his gang had accomplished the negotiations of numerous loans by means of tea warrants, which were perfectly valueless, as tho tea they represented is of the most abominable and poisonous description, being covered with verdegris. Some parcels of this stuff have been placed in a sale to take place this day (Thursday), for the mere purpose and object of enabling some friend of the prisoner to offer money for, and purchase them, and be thereby enabled to swear at the trial that the teas were of such and such a value, as they procured so much per pound at a public sale, and that therefore the war rants were bona fide security. The teas are, however, so well known as the "fraudulent" teas, from being in the market since 1842, that no person in the trade is likely to be deceived by them, and they have, therefore, been put into the sale only for the purpose above stated. MILITARI RIOT AT WINDSOR FAIR. WINDson, TUESDA.Y EVENlNG.—Yesterday evening, between nine and ten o'clock, a serious disturbance was created in the High-street, cpposite to the parish church, by a large body of privates in the Ist Regiment of Life Guards, in consequence, as it was stated, of a man named Chippenfield, the proprietor of one of the booths containing wonderful pigs, boa constrictors, crocodiles, &c., having " insulted" one of their comrades in the •••.41., afternoon, by telling him, when he had paid his two pence for admission, that he would have to go without " bacco" for a week. In the early part of the evening the showman was threatened by several of the Life Guards to be " paid out" before night. Accordingly, shortly after nine o'clock, a large party of the soldiers came into the fair (between ono and two hundred), although not more than about twenty were engaged in the riet, the rest merely looking on. They commenced by dragging away the flight of wooden steps leading into the booth, which they entirely demolished. The soldiers next dragged away the whole of the platform in front of the booth; in doing which the wife of the pro prietor, Mrs. Chippenfield, fell through upon the stones beneath, and was considerably injured. Mr. Chippen- Held addressed the soldiers from a projecting piece remaining of the platform, begging them to desist, as he had a wife and large family dependent upon him for support, and humbly apologising for anything he might have said to have given them offence in the early part of the day. The work of destruction, however, still proceeded ; the large canvass painting on the outside being tore, after an attempt had been made to upset the van, but fortunately ineffectually. We understand that the learned pig got loose, and that the crocodile had a very narrow escape during the melee, which lasted for nearly half an hour. Many persons, some of whom were females, who were standing in the High-street at the time, got knocked about and severely injured. The proprietor of the exhibition had his hands severely scalded by the upsetting of the boiling oil, which was burning in jars on the platform at the time of the attack. Mr. Blunt, one of the ;borough magistrates, was in the High-street during a great part of the riot ;_ but from the large body of Life Guards who were present, it was judged inexpedient for the police to interfere, who would assuredly have been overpowered. It is a question, however, amongst the inhabitants of the neighbourhood (who closed their shutters when they found how serious was the nature of the affray), whether some steps ought not to have been taken by the local authorities to put a stop to the dis turbance at the onset. A picket arrived from the cavalry barracks a little before ten o'clock; but not until the affair was at an end, and the ringleaders had dispersed. As soon as the work of demolition had been completed, the proprietor of the booth, addressing the soldiers, said, "Now, I hope, gentlemen, you are all satisfied." To which the leader of the emeute replied, " Oh, yes, we are quite satisfied ; you shan't have any more tuppencies to night, that we have taken d---d good care of. So good night, old fellow." The mob then left, and the ex hibition closed. CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD RAIL WAY.-DAMAGE TO THE SEA WALL During the last week the succession of heavygales which occurred without intermission for some days much retarded the operations on this line ; and on the night of Thursday an extensive breach was made by the sea in the solid wall now in the course of construc tion under the Penmean Mawar mountain. The waves ran very high, and completely washed over the erection during its whole course, effecting large openings. This portion of the works is much exposed to the assaults of the sea, and peculiarly liable to injury. Mr. Robert Stephenson, the celebrated engineer, and several other gentlemen, inspected the damage on the following day, and directed measures for the repair to be taken. The works on the railway between Conway and the Menai Bridge will, when completed, embrace a greater number of difficult and formidable obstacles than can be found, for a similar distance, on any other line. They com prise the following—namely, proposed bridge of iron, 400 feet in length, on Mr. Stephen's novel plan, across the river Conway; a tunnel at Llandegai, 440 yards in length; and another tunnel at the Ffiddoedd of half a mile; also one under the mountain at Bangor, of 900 yards; in addition to which there is a large amount of cutting and earth-work. To these must be added the new bridge over the Menai of 1,400 feet; and the whole presents as massive and expensive an undertaking as can well be imagined for any eighteen or twenty miles of road. The whole is progressing rapidly, the tunnels being in a forward state. Upwards of 3,000,000 cubic yards of earth-work have been removed out of 4,420,000; and, as nearly 13,000 men are employed, no doubt is enter tained that the contracts will be executed within the spe cified time. The proposed- new bridges at Conway and the Menai are being rapidly pushed forward. The one over the Menai is to be called the Britannia —taking its name from the rock on which its centre pier is supported. This undertaking will be three years before completion, and is carried on under the personal superintendence of Mr. Clarke, civil eng i neer. It will be sustained on four piers, the distance between the central ones being 450 feet. Two tubes are to be made, one for the down and the other for the up trains, and the weight of metal employed in their construction is estimated at 1,200 tons, which will all be of wrought iron ; this immense mass is calculated to hold 2,200 tons, four times the burden it will ever be required to support. The rails are to be laid on prepared or vulcanised India rubber, in order to avoid the injurious effects of vibration. The tubes will be elevated to the piers in compart ments, to be finally riveted together when properly fitted ; these will be lifted from pontoons, at the top of high water, by means of great hydraulic power ; and it is anticipated that, when the first compartment e l r m o s f be th ez e i successfully placed upon the pier, undertaking will be comparatively easy.
