tension as the Uni"oa.preserving plank in the democrati NEWSPAII)
platform of 1860.
The same journal further states :
" Already the struggle for office has commenced. Al
• usual, it begins with the Cabinet places ; but by and bye I;o7:ieli7-,
it will extend to the greedy million, and then we shell
have a lively time. The Republioans, on the other hand, s_‘ ed e
e 4:
are reckoning their gains and losses, and counting up s "TF
the kited and wounded. Last night meetings were held
I in the 14th ,nd 20th wards. In the former, the Hon. D.
wdley Field made a speech in reference to the pro •
; Spects of the Republicans, cud the dilemma in which
the Democracy will find themselves during the next four
years.
"The domestic policy of the new Administration al-
ready promisee an excitement. Mr. Buchanan, it ap.
pears by a telegraphic despatch from Washington, has
declared that he is in favour of the admission of Kansas
as a free State. Now that he is elected he admits the
necessity of this course. The South will be indignant,
and efforts are to be made at an early day to obtain two
' now Sates from Texas to offset Kansas in the United
States Senate.
"Mr. Ganthier, the newly appointed consul of France
at San Francisco, is at present in New York, and was
to leave for California on the 20th iestant. Mr. Gan-
thier succeeds Mr. Mon, removed by his Government.
Mr. Dillon's doings in California, in connection with
certain fillibuster operations against Mexico, are doubt-
le.s fresh in the minds of our readers.
"On the 4th ii stant Montreal was visited by a ter-
rific hurricane. Much damage has been done to the
buildings in the city and neighbourhood, but no loss of
life is reported. The steamer Prince Albert was driven
ashore at St. Helen's Island, bat the passengers were
landed in safety, and properly cared for by the garrison
stationed there.
" The south-easterly gale caused considerable damage
on Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Two schooners, one
laden with wheat aid the other with salt, went ashore
between the piers at Oswego, and the schooner J. G.
Deshler was dismasted and driven ashore about nine
miles above that city. A large number of vessels left
Buffalo on Monday, and much anxiety was felt for their
safety. The barque American Republic was driven
against the breakwater and sunk immediately. She was
frsui Chicago, laden with a large cargo of wheat. The
propeller St. Joseph went ashore at Fairport, and will
probably prove a total lose. Her crew were rescued
with much difficulty. There were rumours in circula-
tion at Buffalo of the wreck of a number of other vessel,.
"It is believed at least 20 vessels have been sunk or
greatly damaged, and in all probability many lives have
been lost.
" We are in possession of the details of the late news
eringidaigall !Pr lakfacsi Mier wee taken-
by Vii Jenne *Milieu •tsiTtanCe and the Government
troops retired to Carnargo, which place had been at-
tacked by Vidaurri, but neither party bad been success •
ful at the latest dates. From the Rio Grande we learn
that Vidaurri had men and means sufficient to command
success, and that he was very popular on both sides of
the river.
"News from Vera Cruz to the 14th ult., received at
New Ore ans, states that Gen. Sayas had been arrested
by the Government. Ober arrests were also taking place.
.` Additional intelligence from Mexico, detailing Gen.
Mejia'a movements at Queretaro, and Vidaurri's revo-
lutionary operations, had been received. Troops had
been despatched against the rebel chiefs, and prepara-
tions were on foot for a vigorous campaign. It is assert-
ed that the orders of the President with regard to the
enrolment of forced levies of men, are followed by a pub-
lic order from the Minister of War to discontinue them.
reuse latter directions, however, are promptly disobeyed
by the military authorities. It is stated that a junta,
composed of Mexican exiles in New York, is new. plot-
ting for the elevation of Don Antonio Corona to the
Presidency.
" A correspondent in the city of Monterey, Mexico,
writing on 23d Sept. and sth Oct., furnishes some addi.
tional particulars relative to the progress of the revolu-
tionary movement which is being carried on by General
Vidaurri against President Comonfort. The struggle is
fierce in its operation, and will be desolating iii its effects
on the country. In order to reduce the army of Tamau-
lipas Vidaurri was operating along the line of the Rio
Bravo with 2,600 men, whilst Col. Sayan, his second in
command, pressed on Victoria with a large force. The
pedpie had voluntarily supplied his commissariat depots
on the mountain ranges. The citizens of Sierra Gorda
had revolted against the Executive. In the meantime
President Comonfort had made preparations to suppress
the' rebellion by a strong military demonstration, and
there was no doubt but either Vidaurri or himself would
be driven from power before peace was restored.
"We have dates from Tampico to the 29th ult. Gen.
Garza had taken active measures to oppose the pro-
gress of Vidaurri, and the greatest alarm and excitement
had prevailed throughout the entire region. At latest
accounts, however, tranquillity bad been somewhat re-
stored, upon the receipt of a report that terms of ac-
commodation had been agreed upon between Garza and
Vidaurri, and that the latter bad agreed to recognise
Comonfort's Government. A letter from a correspond-
ent at the city of Mexico, dated 17th ult., gives all the
news stirring in that quarter.
" Our readers will doubtless recollect an account, re-
cently published, of the Mexican war steamer Democrat
being run away with by her crew from Vera Cruz not
long since, and the departure of another war steamer in
pursuit of the mutineers. It appears that the Democrats,
after committing at least one piratical act, and while
attempting another, was overhauled off Campeachy by
the vessel sent in search of her, and at last accounts
both vessels were engaged in deadly conflict. The next
arrival from ,Campeachy or Vera Cruz will probably
bring us news of the result. It is reported that the
piratical craft, while at Coatzacoalcos, fired into and
sunk the Mexican war steamer, formerly called the
Ben Franklin."
The New Orleans Picayune, of Oct. 25, says:—
" The echooner W. W. Parkness, which sae despatched
with the mails for Vera Cruz, returned last evening, hay-
ing sailed from that port one day after the M'Clelland,
cutter, which brought the mails three days since. The
date is Oct. 15. Gen. Almonte, the newly-appointed
Minister to England, arrived at Vera Cruz too late for
the British steamer, and as he had all his family with him
he could not be accommodated on board the M'Clelland.
He was waiting at Tera Cruz for the Spanish steamer for
Havana. The Progresso of Oct. 10 states that General
Rosas Landa was to be sent by the Government to Lis-
bon for the purpose of bringing home the remains of ex-
President Arista?'
By way of New Orleans we have news from Ruatan to
the 18th ult. The treaty between Honduras and England
retroceding the ieland to the first-named Power, reached
Ruatan on the 17th, and caused considerable excitement.
Public opinion was almost unanimous against the recog-
nition of the sovereignty of Honduras, and a large por-
tion of the inhabitants were determined to resist the
measure if it were forced upon them. Many were in
favour of endeavouring to become an independent re-
public. The island is inhabited by about 3,500 people, a
large proportion of the blacks, but all speaking the Eng-
lish language, the game as those of St. Andrew's and
Providencia, nearer to the New Grenadian coast.

OF A Peurza LIINATIO.-01. Wednesiay Mr.
Brent held an inquest on the body of Jane Stanton, late y
a lunatic reeding at the Stamford Union. From the evi.
dente it appeared that the deceased was being removed
thence to London, via the Great Northern Railway. A
strait jacket was put on two days previous to her leaving
Stamford, which seetaed to cause her great excitement,
and before she arrived at King's-cross terminus she
ceased to exist. The jury returned a verdict of "Found
dead," and accompanied it with a censure upon the per-
son who had the lunatic in charge, on the ground that
he did not pay proper attention to the unfortunate
woman.
