CRIME IN MEXICO•

The Montteur de la llotte publishes the
ding
folelowing
extracts from the letter of a young man rsi

in Mexico to his parents in France :
" I received your letter, dated January, and with it the
list of the acts of violence committed on strangers in Mexico I
;
in that list I never thought of my name appearing, and
fancy I can see your surprise and fright. I did not intend
speaking to you about it, but I shell now give you some
particulars of my capture. Robbers in Mexico do not answer
in any way to the idea which we have of robbers in Europe.
Here, when a man is bold and enterprising, and though he
may possess som fortune, he embraces no other profession
than that of robber on a large scale. Once head of a band,
each political party pays him court, bids high for his friend-
ship, and tries to win him over to its side. To this he willingly
accedes, forihe always prefers the party of rebellion in order
to enjoy more liberty. Every day that passes we see the
most famous robbers and assassins receive the favour of
the Government, who pardon them their crimes on condi-
tion
that they shall not make war on them. The existing
Government, which is termed Liberal,' has the u nen-
viable honour of protecting them openly, and thesebands
of robbers are the moat faithful supporters o of the Constitu-
tion, the liberties of the people, &I d
c. not exaggerate
noag othergerate
when I say that five or six generals of division h
certificates of service to show than these crimes, which have
made them so notorious that, disdaining to be called cap-
tains, they were perforce made generals—the more 6 as
their bands numbered from 2,000 to 3,000 men, The part of
the country I live in is one of the richest, and, conse-
qu-ntly, one where the robbers are in greeter numbers. The
brigands, after plundering for two or three veers in the
name of the Constitution, have invented a new branch of
industry, called by them holding to ransom.' On Thurs-
day, the ISt:te of April last year, at 2 o'clock in the after-
noon, seven robbers entered a property where there were
more than 200 workmen ; they seized everything they
could le ,y hands on, and carried me off on horseback. There
were hat seven of them—not a man more. At this very mo-
ment they furnish the guard of honour to the Governor of
the State. My capture was the 55th of the same kind. I
was carried away to the mountains, about 10 leagues from
the property, and, after having passed five days in various
caverns, and as many nights in the open air, I only re^
covered my liberty on paying down a ransom of 2,700
piasters. I omit many other particulars, which would ap-
pear to you impossible."

TEA—The dealings have not been very extensive, but
full prices have been current for good and fine qualities.
StTGAß—Business has been dull, and prices have in some
instances shown a slight decline. In the refined market,
however, the demand has been moderately active, and quo •
tations remained steady.
COFFEE—Grood and fine descriptions of plantation and
native Ceylon have been dealt in to a fair extent, prices in
most instances being fairly maintained.
RICE—The fineness of the weather has caused a slight
falling off in the demand, and a decline of about 3d to 6d,
per cwt. may be quoted on good and medium qualities.
SALTPETRE—Business has been inactive, but holders
have shown little disposition to give way, and late quota
tions are nominally current.

has been transacted at enhanced rates.

THE A_RillY.

A topographical department has been added
to the Royal Engineer establishment at Chatham,
a school for the instruction of the officers
and men in that branch of engineering has been
opened at Brampton barracks, under the super-
intendence of Captain Scott, assisted by two
instructors. The men selected to undergo a
course of study in topography will be attached
to the different companies of Royal Engineers,
and in future each company will include men
who have undergone a course of instruction in
photography, telegraphy, and topography. The
men now under training are taken off all other
duties, in order that the whole of their time may be
devoted to study.
The half-yearly inspection of the three battalions
of infantry at Chatham has been commenced by
Major-General A. J. Lawrence, C. 8., Inspector-
General of Infantry. Yesterday it was confined to
the Ist battalion, the depots comprising which were
assembled on the general parade ground at an early
hour, under the command of Col. H. Jervis. The
regiments on tha ground were the Ist and 2d bat-
talions of the 4th King's Own, 35th, 43d (Light
Infantry), 77th, and 94th. The battalion has lately
been so reduced in strength that it now numbers
only about 600 men of all ranks. Major-General
Lawrence, who was accompanied by Captain J. P.
Battersby, his aide-de camp, first inspected the
equipments and kit of each man. After he had
done so the battalion was marched to Chatham
Lines, where the troops were put through an ex-
tended course of battalion and company drill, which
occupied four hours. The Inspector-General selected
various officers from the several regiments to ma-
noeuvre the battalion, in order to enable him to
ascertain the proficiency they had attained in their
duties. The troops returned to their quarters
shortly before 2 o'clock. The depots which com-
prise the 2d battalion, under the command of Col.
R. N. Phillips, were to be inspected to-day.
Yesterday detachments of non-commissioned offi-
cers and men belonging to the 42d, 71st, 79th, and
92d Highlanders arrived at Chatham garrison from
Stirling. After the troops had been medically in-
spected 11 of their number were admitted into Fort
Pitt Hospital for treatment.

AMERICA,

QUEENSio WN, APRIL 14.
The royal mail steamship America arrived off
Roche's Point, at 8.30 p.m., with 56 passengers aml
10,000 dols. in specie.

She landed 112 sacks of mails and 2 passengers,
and proceeded for Liverpool, at 8.50 p.m.; all well.
NEW YORK, APRIL 1 (Evening).
(Per America by telegraph to Boston, and from
Roche's Point, Queenstown.)
General Burnside has occupied Beaufort without
opposition. 500 Confederates retain possession of
Fort Macon, but are reported to be cut off from
supplies. 70,000 Confederates, under Beauregard,
are supposed to be concentrated at Corinth,
Alabama.

It is supposed that the Confederate forces along
the new line of defence from Decatur to Island
No. 10 number 200,000 men, and that an exten-
sive battle will shortly occur in that part of the
country.

In Congress Mr. Sumner has made a long speech,
advocating the abolition of slavery in the district of
Columbia, with compensation to the slave-owners.
The prize steamer Magnolia, with 1,000 bales of
cotton, has arrived at New York.

The House of Representatives has reported
amendments to the tax bill, striking out the tax
on flour, and reducing the tax on cotton one cent.
per lb,
Mr. Swaine has introduced a resolution in the
Confederate Congress to withdraw the commis-
sioners from England, and abandon further at-
tempts to obtain British recognition.

The City of New York and the Jura have arrived
out.

The British gun-boat Medea has arrived at New
York.

The French frigate Canada has arrived from
Vera Cruz.

NEW YORK, APRIL 3 (Evening).
The Confederates are reported to have withdrawn
all their forces from the coast of Georgia, and taken
all their guns to Savannah.

Fort Pulaski has been entirely invested by the
Federals, and all communication with Savannah
cut off.

The surrender of the fort is daily expected. 500
Confederates occupy Pulaski. Should they refuse
to surrender General Sherman will shell the fort.
Savannah and its appr0.(4.,.., me strongly fnrti-
fied. From 20,000 to 50,000 Confederates are sup-
posed to occupy the town.

The Senate has passed a resolution to cooperate
with States desiring to emancipate slaves by a vote
of 32 to 10.

The resolution was strongly opposed by the lead-
ing members from the border States.
It appears likely that the bill for the abolition of
slavery in the district of Columbia will pass the
House of Representatives by a large majority.
Active skirmishing has commenced on the Rap-
pahannock.
The Kangaroo has arrived out.
HALIFAX, APRIL 4.

The Government is stronger.
The Revenue Bill has passed the house, as well
as the Gold Mining Bill and the Joint Stock Com-
pany's Incorporation Act.

The Legislature of New Brunswick is discussing
the Revenue Bill.

The Prince Edward's Island House of Assembly
has introduced a bill confirming the Land Com-
missioners' award.

LIVERPOOL, APRIL 14.
The Glasgow, which arrived at Queenstown on
Saturday, has reached this port.
She brings 27b.000 doll. in specie.

THE PRESENT DISTRESS IN TRADE
fully explained in J. GROSSMITIPS
" GOVERNMENT UPON FIRST PRINCIPLES."
The cause is there predicated of the monetary difficulties ex-
perienced in 1860. The Crisis is at hand. Anxiety in busi-
ness has now become the grim torture. Purity of motive.
Intelligently exercised, must animate all Governments, or all
is lost, All denominations of Constitutions are carefully
examined in J. Grossmith's "Government upon First Prin-
ciples."

CLERICAL, MEDICAL, and GENERAL LIFE
ASSURANCE SOCIETY,

13, St. James's-square, London, S.W.

Established 1824. Empowered bf Special/let of Parliament

BONUS MEETING, 1862.
The Report presented at a Meeting held on the 2d January
last, for the declaration of the Seventh Bonus, showed, in
evidence of the progress of the Society, that during the quin-
quennial period which terminated on the 30th of Juno, 1861,
New Assurances for a total sum of £1,486.370 had been
effected, being an increase of £62,215 on those of the previous
five years ; that
The Income had increased from £166,800 to £195,400 per
annum ; that

The 'Assurance Fund had risen from £!,154,276 to
£h422,191; and that a

Reversionary Addition to the Policies of £275,077 was then
made, as against £232,479 at the prior division.
In illustration of the results of the Division, that the
Reversionary Addition above named averaged 48 per cent., or
varied with the different ages from 33 to 89 per cent. on the
Premiums paid in the five years ; and that the
Cash Bonus averaged 28 per cent. on the like Premiums,
being amongst the largest ever declared by any office.
The Report explained at length the nature of the invest-
ments, and the bases of the calculations, the results of which,
as above shown, are eminently favourable.

The following are among the distinctive features of the
Society :
Credit System.—On Policies for the whole of life, one half of
the Annual Premiums during the first five years may remain
on credit, and may either continue as a debt on the Policy, or
be paid off at any time.
Policies for Terms of Years may be effected at rates pecu-
liarly favourable to Assurers.
Invalid Lives may be assured at Premiums proportioned to
the increased risk.
Prompt Settlement of Claims.—Claims paid thirty days
after proof of death.
The Ac •ounts and Balance Sheets are at all times open to
the inspection of the Assured, or of persons proposing to
fissure.
Tables of Rates, Forms of Proposal, the Report above men-
tioned, and a detailed account of the proceedings of the Bonus
Meeting, can be obtained from any of the Society's Agents,
or of
GEORGE CUTCLIFFE. Actuary and Secretary,
13, St. James's-square, London, S. VV.
The Next Division of Profits will take place in January,
1887, and persons who effect New Policies before the end of
June next will be entitled at that Division to one year's
additional share of profits over later Assurers.
London, England, 1862-04-15

COMMEACEMENT OF RASTER TERM.

This being the first day of Easter Terra the Lord Chan-
cellor entertained the Judges, her Majesty's Sergeants, and
Queen's Counsel at breakfast, at his mansion, in Belgrave-
square.
After the entertainment the Judges proceeded, in pro-
cession, to their respective courts in Westminster Hall,
where a great number of persons had collected to view the
proceedings.

The Judges wore their State robes, and the Sergeants
and Queens'Counsel also appeared in full forensic costume.
The term is expected to be a very busy one, both in law
and equity. There is a list of 99 cases in the Divorce Court
Sir Cresswell Cresswell will sit on Wednesday at West-
minster for motions, not being able to sit to-day for the
want of accommodation. The term is extended five days
on account of the holidays, and before its expiration on the
12th of May it is expected that the arrears of the common
law courts, numbering about 200, will be reduced.

By an order which will take effect to. day, every special
case, special verdict, and bill of exceptions, must be divided
into paragraphs, and confined to a distinct portion of the
subject, and numbered. The business of the equity courts
is not in arrear.:

on distant stations, instead of bringing them home
whenever any considerable repairs or refittings are
required. Ships of the American navy, stationed
on the west coast, have now their stores forwarded
via Panama, by which route the crews are sent out
and brought home, whenever desirable; and thus
the wear and tear of the long voyage round Cape
Horn are avoided, to say nothing of the dangers of
that tempestuous passage to the ships themselves
and to the health of the crews. Like the Ameri-
cans, we maintain a naval squadron in the Pacific,
but we have not yet imitated their wise economy in
the matter now referred to. There ought to be a
paving dock for ships of war on that coast, if not
also at the Falklands, there being no such accommo-
dation at present all round the southern coast of
America from Rio de Janeiro to Callao. The object
is one of the first importance, and the thanks of the
shipping interest and the mercantile community
generally, who are most directly benefitted by all
measures which tend to the maintenance of Britain's
naval supremacy, are due to Mr. Corry for the
manner in which it is to be brought before Parlia-
ment.—Liverpool Albion.
