a. PElZE.-1le notorious Ihomps0n has been taken
at last The schooner San Felipe had sailed from this
port The 23th Of last month for Brassuria with Colonel
Stephen Austin and other TEXANS and tie evening
OF TUESDAY following, she heard firing ahead On near
ing the place Capt urd perceived the Mexican schoon-
rCosrco commanded by Thompson and an armed sloop
engaged in attacking the American brig FREMONT which
was assisted bya steamboat. When Captain Hurd ad-
vanced' The Hrxcan ships ceased end fetr=nied; and
then the STEAMBOAT took much OF tho cargo aud most Of
the passengers boar and brought them into Brass3ra
During the night he Mexican vessels used their sweeps
and approached the San Felipe, when Captain urd ras-
ed anchor and hosted sail When within halta mile the
MpIlcan fired large guns, and the small they advance
cd. Hurd waited till they within musket shot Of
hin; and then gave them voey from the small arms,
and afterwards dose from his two cannons-the only
he had on board.
The San Felipe continued the encounter against both
parties for about an hour, when the Mexican retired
Neat morning the San Felipe deserted sail ahead and
believing it to be the Correo he praviIed on the steam
boat to tow him along Not being able preserve his
distance, Thompson sent an officer and Two mon To re.
lnollstrale against Captain Hurds chasing Mexican
armed schooner; but the Ambassadors were cayaerly
treated, and ]urd fired gun make the other surren
der Thompson lowered his flag; and Hurd sent boat
10 take the corsalr board and prize crew 10 take
possession of the Correo The steamboat towed both
INTO the Brassos; and Hurd having left there the San
Felipe returned yesterday with his prize into port.
None of the crew Of the San Felipe were injured but
1t IS said that Thompson received two wounds The
thighs and that his gunner is severely If not MORALLY
wounded.
We are indebted to the poeness of Captain Hurd for
permitting these details 10 be conned from his Journal

appears that the fellow Thompson will probably es-
cape from the just punishment he should receive The
Mexican Consul, informed intsfered in his be-
half and will leave nothing undone obtain his delive-
ry to the Mexican Government. Thompson, it seems,
acting under commission in the revenue service
of Mexico and is consequently responsible only to his
own Government for his Illegal acts; bit Mexico in
urn being responsible the United Sttes for any de-
predations committed upon CONNIE RE by the Mexi-
can officers, it is to be hoped that strict account will
be required Of the frequent infrngenents Of national
law which Thompson has been guilty ofupon American
vessels - True .7merican.

GEORGE TnoMPsoS.-Among the numerous ccacbra.
tons Of the late Anniversary Of American inIrPeu-
dence, was the Colonization meeting of Mddlctown,
Connecticut.
Frota the able address ofRev William Fske President
ofthe Methodist College at Middetown, which has been
published, make the following extract. Speaking of
British Lecturers the orator says:
" foreign interference ,hs question: will crate
very harsh!y OH American keliSG The "reminiscences
Of this anniversary teach u.s. that however much love
and honor England in her place, shosd be extremely
jealous OF any interference from that quarter, in matters
affecting our Constitution and Laws. Nor do believe
that highm;nded Engishman Of intelligence and moral
principle having all honorable standing in his country,
would volunteer to come to America such errand.
What then are we to think if such foreign agent
should not only come, but should also prosecute his
mission, in the most offensive manner, arraignng
our institutions, dcnouncing greatest and best
men as .connying at fraud and soutrage, supporting
and urging forward measures calculated to divide
our churches, produce characterization in the
illogical and literary Institutions and PROSTATE our
political Union? Why, sir we must snsprct the
soandness either OF his head his heart. And what
II such !oicsn agent Should either procure or suffer
himself 10 be announced as reverend clergyman and
under such character should accept Of Invitations to
otciafe IN the sacred desk as minister Of tive gospel,
although he never had the hand OF Bishop PeesbYtcr
his head, nor held ministerial license in his hand
Ia such case, sir must lose all confidence in his
of propricty and integrity. And if to this were
added communication from ::3 country, and speak
not unadvisedly, that such agent hausrnpt IN
purse and IN draer al Aore, this would be only confirm
atory fsuspicons naturally excited b. his conduct here
Desperate fortunes and regulations require desperate
means to repair them. If were foreigner, and had
honorable c3tng p&jte stna&iay at 5oe, and wish
ed 10 60 abroad under acompstea salary get
OF Bread and gain transient reputation, especially if
had some power at defamation attract the attention
and excite the wonder Of the multitude, knew of M
place more tempting than this country, and no theme
more promising for this purpose than that Of slavery
These charges against the moral character Of Tlo,ns
son. thus boldly avouched in the general by Rev p1ss
dent FisSe have been repeatedly published BY the
papers in detail and never denied, TO knowledge

'Ehe Silk CuAturaAist.


THE Executive Committee of the
Hartford County Silk Society, have
commenced monthly publication, call.
ed the Silk Culluralist and Farmers
Manual.
The object ofthe publication is to
disseminate thorough knowledge Of
the cultivation of the Mulberry Tree,
in all its varieiies-The rearing Of Silk
Worms The production of Cocoons
and the Realing of Silk, in the most ap.
proved method. The importance Of
this knowledge will appear from the
fact that the nett profit Of land devoted
to the culture of Silk, is double if not
triple, to that derived from any other
crop which can be put upon it. l. is
also fact, that every moderate farmer
can raise several hundred dollars worth
Of Silk, without interfering with his or
binary agricultural operations. But
in order to avail himself Of this facility
to obtain competency and wealth,
which our soil and climate have given
him, he mus, possess himself of infor.
nation on the subject-for without it
his attempts will be fruitless. 1t is
therefore, the object Of the Committee
to diAuse this Information as extensive
ly as possible, and ttbe cheapest rate.
The publication will contain a coms
plete manual OF directory from sowing
the seed to Keeling the Silk, together
with such facts and experiments, as
will enable farmers 20 raise Silk and
prepare it for market, without further
knowledge or assistance. 1t will also
contain interesting matter on agricutu.
raj subjects in general.
TERMs.-The CuIluralist will be
published in monthly numbers Of Eight
Quario Pages, at Fifty Cents Year.
No subscription will be received IN.
less paid in adv0nce, and for not less
than a year.
Subscriptions received by F. G.
