A most extraordinary occurrence took place
last week at Sheriff' Hutton. A mother at this
village left her child, two or three months old,
in a cradle, whilst she went into a neighbour's
house, and unfortunately left the door open,
when, on her return, she found that another
child, about two years and a half old, had wan-
dered into the house, gone to the infant, and
had bit it in various places to such a degree as
to have drawn blood, and almost caused its
death. Nay, even at the time the mother en-
tered, it was in the act of attempting to force
out one of the infant's eyes with its finger. The
return of the parent, however, saved the life of
the child. The neighbourhood was alarmed
by the shrieks of the mother.— York Courant.

AMERICAN PAPERS.

(From the New York Inquirer of May 16.)

BRAZIL—Of the injudicious policy pursued by this cis-
Atlantic Monarch, we spoke a few days since in terms of
severe remonstrance. Fresh arrivals from Rio have brought
additional evidence of the frowardness and violence of the
Brazilian functionaries. The Philadelphia Gazette con-
tains a letter from the master of a British to the master of
an American vessel, describing the indignities and injuries
done by the Brazilians to both. Ship-masters make good
witnesses, though they are not the 'calmest and most tem-
perate historians, and amongst the wordy complaints of
Captain Harrison we find enough of substantial injury to
warrant the speedy and efficient interference of our Go-
vernment. Until the representations of M. Raguet are
made public it will not be safe to state the actual amount
of losses incurred ; it is enough for the present to say, that
the insolence of the Brazilian Government is of a character
that ought not to be endured.

An attempt has been recently made to navigate the
Allegany river by steam, which is said to have been en-
tirely successful, with the water at the height usual during
the spring months when the Ohio is navigable. The
steam-boat Albion, Captain Pursall, performed a trip from
Pittsburgh to a point 50 miles above that city, at the rate
of from four to five miles an hour, against the rapid cur-
rent of the stream. Capt. Pursall has no doubt that the
river may be navigated as far up as Franklin or Warren,
by steam-boats carrying 50 tong,

NEW YORK, Max I4.—FROM CENTRAL AMERICA.—
By the brig Mary Livingston, arrived yesterday from
San Juan de Nicaragua, we learn that a number of the
provinces in Central America were in a state of anarchy
and civil war. Leon and Grenada had made war upon
Nicaragua Jenagua—the latter was surrounded by troops,
and Leonidas was expected to surrender. Messiah had
been plundered by contending armies. It was said the
cause of the difficulties was an attempt of the President to
change the existing form of Government. Another cause
assigned was ,the great animosity existing between the
coloured people and the whites, who held the reins of
Government.

Foreigners who had entered into speculations had been
disappointed in their golden dreams, and many who had
arrived in the country in affluence were reduced to poverty
and want.

In consequence of the revolutionary state of the country,
hides, which formerly were an important item of export,
were very scarce. Business of every kind at a stand.
The indigo crop was stated to be only two-thirds of
what it usually was : export for the present year estimated
at 65,000 lbs.—Nat. Adv.

We learn, by the arrival yesterday from Havannah, that
Commodore Porter's squadron had free ingress and egresesat
Key West. A number of vessels had been captured by his
squadron ; one of them (a Spanish ship, from Cadiz) was
captured by the brig Bravo, off Cape Antonio, the middle
of April, and was stated to be worth 150,000 dole. The
prisoners were taken to Key West.—lbid.
