His securities have or will tai possession of the

TExAs AND MExIco.-We publish slip from the
Fonda Herald OF the I'D August, and learn frem
| our Fonda correspondent, who has taken pains to
inform himself that ifthe Lords OF the Treaury do
not order the release of the Montezuma, her con-
demnation is certain in the Court of Exchcquer,
so strongly has Gen. Hamilton fortified himself
with proofs against this steamer before he lodged
information at the Customs. She cost E70 or
fS0,O00 il is said, and could sell for 80 or $4,000
In the event OF condemnation one-half of the for
fixture goes to the Queens officers and half to
the person who lodged information at the Customs
Although one OF the steamers has escaped, (the
Gaudaloupe.) before Gen. fl. could get the neces-
sary information TO act against her, yet if he sue
ceeds in checkmatlng or condemning the one under
seizure, the Montezuma,) the coast of Texas is
probably safe, and the Texan Navy may be COM
petent to contend with one of the two irigates al
though not both, ably commanded and manned BY
British tars Gen. II. has had TO employ great ex-
erons and to use several agents to collect the
necessary proofs. II is said that he has been zeal
ousy assisted by gentleman of high rank, distin-
guished in foreign service, who has had no small
experience in enterprises Of similar character.
the Montezuma is impounded it will be great
boon to Texas
The Hon. Ashbel Smith was at Paris when Gen.
Hamilton effected the seizure. He has since assist
ed, and doubtless will cooperate jealousy, both
privately as well as officially, in making it good
LATER FROM HAvANA.-By the arrival of the ship
Cristoval Colon, Capt Smith, from Havana whence
she sailed the 9th inst have received further
particulars of the destructive gale that occurred at
that island on the 4th The bark Ontario and briggs
Mcclellan and Margaret drifted afoul of each other
The bark lost her fore topmast and jb-boom, and |
all sustained some injury. On getting clear, the |
Margaret dragged ashore on Cara Blanca where |
she remained on the 9th. The schr Cyrus, partly |
loaded, went ashore, and was dischargng on the |
9Th. A Spanish brig and several small craft were |
also on shore. They would probably all be got off
without much damage. Nearly all the vessels in |
the harbor broke from their moorings, and several
were badly chafed by getting in contact with each |
other.
R5- We also learn by Capt. Howard, of the James
Edward, from Turks Island, that heavy gale was |
experienced there on the Both ut., occasioning |
loss Of salt to the amount of one hundred |
thousand bushels. At Grand Turk the loss was |
equally severe. The master and crew of the bark |
Talent, of Boston, which vessel was lost on the |
Caycas Islands, arrived at Salt Key on the 18th,
having saved the SAILS rigging, and part of the |
cargo.
Two DAYS LATER FROM Rio DE JANElRo.-We |
indebted to Capt. Willis, of the brig Kentucky
arrived last evening, for files of Rio Janero papers
to the 2sth July. They contain no news. We |
learn verbally from Capt. w. that revolution was |
daily expected to break out
MORTALITY AT SEA BY reference to our marine
head it will be that the ship Hilah, Capt. Ham,
mond, experienced very unfortunate passage, five |
persons having died GA board during her passage.
MORE MURDERS IN FLoRIDA.-A family by the |
name of Perkins was murdered by the Indians on |
the 10Th or Both uli., at Hickory Hi about twenty
miles west of Mariana.
NEW BRIGHToN STEAMBoAT.-Great complaints |
are made by the Staten Island people, all along the
north shore, against the managers of these steam
boats Ii seems that they change their hours, when
ever they choose, without giving proper notice TO
the public. They ought to treat their customers
with more courtesy, at least
ApJoURNKD.-The Massachusetts, legislature
They have Distracted the State The democrats |
protested against the arrangement
The KEEsvnLK TRAeEDY.-Several bodies have |
been recovered. No names given. Gloom over |
spreads that village.
SUICIDE OF A FEMALE.-Mary G. Achorn, aged Is |
years, committed suicide in Thomaston, Me-, on
the I'd inst.
AUBURN AND ROCHESTER RAIL RoAp.--There are |
strong complaints against the agents on this road |
They constantly insult passengers.
NIBLos.--" Jocko' and "The Milliners' are the |
pieces selected for this evening" and capital pieces
they are-well adapted to call forth the peculiar Ia

Gabrelin comic part he has made his own, and
Charles Whittier in an eccentric odd looking genius
