W A writer in the Detroit Daily Advertiser,
of tho LIST inst, under the signature of Curtius,
speaking of tho bill passed at the last session of
the Legislature, to define the duties Of Supcrin-
tendent of public instruction, says:
''Tho Senate, headed by Mossrs. Barry and
Britain, were determined tho bill should not pass
in any shape" aof
BY reference to the journal of tho afternoon
session of July 22d, that writer may sec that the
bill in question was ordered to third reading
and passed, on motion of Mr.. Barry.
We also learn, from good authority, that Maj.
Britain was in favor of and voted for the passage
of the bill. ~. .--.l-

IMPORTANT FROM THE SOUTI-WES.

New Morement-By gentleman who came
passenger, in the steamboat Choctaw, which ar
rived from Natchitoches yesterday afternoon, wc
learn that Gen'l Gaines, with the United States
troops, has crossed the river Sabine and marched
into Texas far as Nacogdoches, ut which place
he had for tho present fixed his head quarters
The intention of this move had not transpired.
From the same, July 10.
The statement that we published yesterday of
Gen. Gaines having crossed the Sabine, is con-
frmed by the arrival of the Caspian last night,
from Natchitoches. 1t is further stated III It six
companies of infantry and three companies of
Dragons were daily expected to Join him from
Fort Towson - so : i

From the St. Joseph Herald.
New- Germantoscn.-This is the name of
a plat of ground now intended for a Settle
ment Of Germans. 1t is situated on the
Lake about IL miles towards New-Bui1a-
10, alta place called the Grand Marais.-
Since the survey of this plat the place has
been called Liverpool, until some time last
May, by the benificence of Mr.. X. X. Rich
ards of Chicago, it was agreed that fifty lots
of the said town, in good and convenient
situations on the plat, should be conveyed
to the Rev. Mr.. ]. M. Gumbell, lnowin this
borough, to be held in trust by him for the
use and benefit of such German emgrants
as he may induce to settle and reside at
New Germantown. 1t is also agreed with
Mr.. Gumbell, that Mr.. r. will pay 20 dol
lars toward the passage and transportation
of every family of German colonists, that
may come on and reside one year or up
wards at this point. And we are informed
by Mr.. Gumbell, that it is also further agreed
by Mr.. r. to furnish all his emigrants with
at least one years provisions, to be paid
for in manual labor at the present high pri-
ces of the country; that Mr.. r. agrees to
build Church, a parsonage and school
house, each upon one of the said lots in
trust; to pay five hundred dollars per an
mum, towards the support of the minister
and school master, during the first two
years of the settlement; and to sell to the
said settlers so out lots, of Is acres each,
(for two dollars an acre. bordering on the
town, and good for agricultural operations.
And, that Mr.. r. has bound himself swell
and truly to perform and faithfully keep"
these agreements, under penalty Of ten
thousand dollars.
The policy of these inviting arguments
can be traced in the fact, that the value of
large land interest will be considerably
enhanced by the proposed settlement. And
the policy is doubtless a good one, not on
y for Mr.. RICHARDS, and the interests he
represents, but for all the interests in that
neighborhood, New-Buffalo and St. Joseph.

Venezuela.-We are credibly informed
that letters from Laguira, were received in
town by the last arrival from Jamaica, which
state that after the President of Venezuela,
DIR. VARGAS, had resigned, the Vice Presi-
dent, DIR. NARvATTE, had assumed the du-
ties of that Office; and that Gen. PAEz, at
the head of the army, had proclaimed him.
self Supreme Chief of the Republic, alleg-
ing as a reason for this step, that the Con-
gress had refused to follow his advice in
relation to their proceedings against the re.
formists, or take any measures to appease
the troubles and political dissentions which
prevailed, and that it was the only means
by which the country could be saved from
the horrors of civil war.-N. Y. Cour.

BraSil.--We have received file Of Rio janet
rojournals to the 9th June last. On examining
the debates in the Cortes, we find there is strong
majority against tho proceedings of the present
regent, who is charged with taking Intellectual
measures to put down the instruction in Rio
Grande, and with improper conduct in keeping
in so important an Office as that of Minister of
War, M. Aranjo Lima, brother to one of tho lea
ders OF the instruction. 1t is asserted by some
oftho speakers that the only means by which the
disturbances throughout the empire can be quel-
led, would be the removal of the regent Feijoo
and the substitution in his place of the Princess
Dona Januaria. A request to the Cortes to this
effect has been made by several of the provinces.
He is Reproduced too with prosecuting all those
who show an attachment to the rcigning family,
and an instance is mentioned of his having ban
ished from the country, Frenchman who had
illuminated his house on the birth day Of the
Princess.
We believe the state Of parties in Brazil is this:
One party is aiming to bring about confedcra-
ton of the different provinces under Republican
form of Government. With this party, the Re-
gent is supposed to be connected, with the view
in case it succeeds of becoming President for life
over the whole, and that for this purpose he has
encouraged the instructions in some provinces.
The other party, who counteract his views and
call for his dismissal, are the Immediate friends
and adhorents of the present dynasty and impe-
rial form fGovernmcnt.--ib.

Excitement in Marion county Hissori.-
Great excitement prevails in Marion coun-
", Missouri, from the criminal and daring
efforts of Abolition fanatics, leading TO the
death Of citizen. A letter Of the Gath ult.
from Marion city, published in the St. Louis
Republican, states the following particulars.
One Wm. Muldrew, an Aboll,lonIst, had
brought out young man with him from
the East 10 offcate as Secretary, and who
had publicly expressed Abolition sentiments,
and had also been actively engaged IN cir.
culatlng A BOLTON papers. The consequence
was that mob Of 90 TO 100, took the iel.
low to tar and feather him, but after con.
sultation, 10 view Of his youth, lei him es.
cape they went however, TO the College,
and seized box Of Abolition tracts, and set
fire to them. Ga Sunday, DR.. Nelson preach.
ed at the Camp Ground, seven miles from
Palmyra a7d after the sermon, Muidrow
rose with paper 10 one hand and an open
knife in the other, and commenced reading
paper, requesting subscription from those
10 favor Of sholishlng slavery. DR.. Bosely
pronounced him a scoundrel Muldrow per.
sisted; DR.. B. struck him with a cane, the
sheath OF which came of, and some one
took The sword from him. Muldrow plung.
ed his knife INTO DR.. BIS side, whether be,

his escape, and the Sheriff went in quest oil
him. Mudrow va. afterwards given up
