SEVERE SENrENcss-Forty gears TO the Pc
nientiary! We learn from the Port Tobacco
Times that Mark Caesar, the colored man, a.
gainst whom thirty six indictments had been
found by the grand jury of Charles county
court, in this State, for instruction, was tried
last week upon ten of them and found guilty.
lie was then sentenced TO the pcnitontary for
four years upon each, making the whole term
of his Imprisonment forty years. He is about
81 years old, and should he serve out his term
will then be II years of age. By the way,
Caesar is not 'alone in his glory" as we no.
tce that a white man named VIM. i. Johns
ton has been convicted at Stanton, Va, Of
outraging young female, and sentenced to
the penitentiary for Jorty-t,co gears! and that
two negro men concerned in the same out
rage, have been sentenced to be hung ON the

The BALTIMORE PACKET LINES. The effort
making in Baltimore to establish packet lines
TO Liverpool and some Of our Southern cities,
attracts attention elsewhere, and is regarded
with much favor to the South. The Fayette-
vile IN. C.) Observer has this paragraph:
''The merchants of Baltimore are making
arrangements to establish lines Of packet ships
between that city and Liverpool, Mobile, aud
Wilmington, N. C. Each of these lines must
prove advantageous to the trade of that fiou-
rishng and enterprising city; and the last will
be of no little importance TO Wilmington and
Fayetteville. 1t will undoubtedly attract N.
Carolina merchants to that city to make pur-
chases, and will lead to shipments of produce
and domestic manufactures of our State to Bal
timore.n

COMPETITION OF BRITIsH WITH AMERICAN
SHIPS. The New York Express says-"We
have frequently alluded to the injury that A.
merican ship owners have suffered by their
competition with British ships. The injuries
have, to be sure, been gradual, but they have
now grown into an amount that claims the
earnest attention of mercantile men, and should
be borne in mind by Congress. Of the cotton
crop of tho States south of Virginia, last year,
4s per cent. was taken to Liverpool by British
ships. The total of British ships was 2s4, A
American 367 In Mobile and Savannah, the
British ships have had the largest share. At
Mobile, the second cotton port of the South,
British ships took ono half, and at Savannah
in the same proportion. Snip owners may see
in this competition the true cause of the low
rate OF cotton freight.
A SINGULAR BALLOT. The following ballot
was voted by some wag in New York at the
late election:
"For the amendment Of the Constitution in
relation to the removal OF Judicial officers:
For the removal of all officers, and the APP

people, every six months:
''For the division of property every Saturday

"For making the dealing out of wine behind
the counter legal tender for the Banks, instead
of spece-particularly for the Dutch:'
''For the establishment of Stated Preaching,
and the Bible in the Schools, at all places this
side of Sandy Hill:
''lf negroes shall be allowed to vote, | am

TIE DISPATCHES FROM MEXIco-Ertfaar-
binary Runo,s! We announced Oh Friday
that the U. $. steamer Mis- ssippi had arrived
at Pensacola with important dispatches from
Mexico, but so far nothing as to their character
has leaked out The Union of Saturday night,
however, states that it had seen Mexican jour
mails of the ] lth ult. received at the Depart
ment of State, and that judging from peru
sal of their contents, and the favorable recep-
ton given our squadron at Vera Cruz, the war
spirit has pretty much died away.
The Philadelphia North American of Satur-
day contains the following,
Important Rumor. From Washington we

more of the near provinces of Mexico have APP
piled for admission into the Union. Despatch

nation Of the powers of England and France
to resist the "Ropublcan entertainments"
A number of prominent naval officers have
been ordered to repair to Washington for in
structons. 1t will be remembered that Mons
Guizot advised an interference with the ten
croaching policy of our government, for the
purpose of maintaining the balance of power
We give these reports as they reach us without

The New York Sun of Saturday has the
following rumor.

common class of men, and not the more wealthy, and he replied to the remarks ot gen. tlemen who preceded him, on former day, in opposition. In rejoinder to the remark that the bill would agfandize the specuIator, he desired that it should be so guarded as to give to every industrious man, to every man who wished to cultivate the soil, home and a freside which he could call his own-to cut of the system of tenant and tenantry, to break the odous relation of landlord and ten ant, so prevalent in older countries, and which threatened in older States to steal on the peo- l pie, and rob the farmer of his rights. We'll was il said by one of the sweetest poets:
 "IlI fares the land, to hastenIhg ills prey,
 Where wealth accumuates and men decay
 Mr. Causn followed, in opposition to the bill-regardiag it as proposition simply to put I'D the public lands for sale at twenty five cents an acre. They were acting as trus- tees for these lands, which were ceded, not 1 for the benefit of the new States and settlers, l but as comlhon fund for the use and beneE of such States as had, or might come into the Union; they were bound by the terms of cesson to insist that they be applied to this purpose, faithfully and properly. He contended, therefore, that the bill contempla- ted violation of the trust, and to throw into the market, not refuse lands, but lands worth dollar and quarter an acre; and such a policy was unjust to the old States and inju- rious to the new.
 The Committee rose, and the Speaker re- sumed the chair.

 It seems that MT. Adams was in his seat, and Sangster sent him a note by page that gentleman wished to see him in the lobby. On his coming in- to the lobby, Sangster, accosting him, exclaimed sYou are wrong, and I'll kick you"-and made ar attempt to seize him. Rlr Adams caught him by the writs and tried to hold him, but was too weak to do Sangster then attempted to strike him in the face, but several gentlemen interered.

RgVoLuTIoN IN MEXICO


 \ treine1dous revolution is new going on in Mex leo, against the tyrant Santa Anna, The people are up in arms and from their movements, we are expecting to hear by every mail, of the deeapita- lion of santa Anna and the utter overthrow oi his government.
 We clip the following from the COURIER, (N. Orleans, of the 2Sth Dec, which contains con- denssd statement of the news from Mexico:
 The news from Mexico which we give to-day is interesting and important. There is difference between the Gongres and San ta Anna, which appears to be deadly and lr- reconciable That assembly has ordered the impeachment of the war minister for having given to Santa Anna the command of the troops acting against the insurgents, thereby showing what confidence they place in the chief magistrate of the republic. And this Is the government that had the insolence to declare it made distinction between one part of the people of the United States and another; between President Tyler and his countrymen-betweent the Senate of the Uni ted States and Inc President. But here we behold the Mexican Congress formally an- nouncing it's apprehensions of danger to the fePuOiiC loIi titCl Ofitei iiuS iSlidIC JULIE dt the head of the army. It Is plain from the proceedings of tho Mexican Congress and the manifesto of Santa Anna, that the last degree of hostility has arisen between them. The impeachment of the war minister for such a cause proves that the congress par ticipates in the wishes and projects of the insurgents, whatever these may be.
 A letter from Vera Cruz of Dec. l2 states that Vera Cruz and Ialapa have declared against Santa Anna, and that in both these places his efligy had been torn to pieces by the populace.
 Other letters state that Santa Anna being at Qneretaro at the head of 1900 men, was abandoned by them and they passed over to the insurgent chief Paredes. The ex-presi- dent was thus left alone without followers fuspan had also declared for the insurgents No engagement of any consequence had la ken place. A few men were killed at JaIa- pa, which is the only place where blood was spilled
The Arkansas banner., 1845-01-08
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

Santa Anna was at Queretaro, at the head of 5000 men, entirely surrounded by tho insurgent population, from whom it was i'm. possible for him to escape.
 Some changes were made in the admins traien. Echeverrias was appointed minister of finance; Cuevas Of foreign affairs; Gari. ca Condo of war
 MoaE prFFIcULrIEs.-We clip the following from an exchange;
 Ferg late and imporaai from Bacnos .4yrcs-Seis
 ufe q the ,chole Argentine Feet by he .8mer
 ean Sqaadron-- Tremendous eteitemeat
 The barque Creole, Capt Norris, arriyet yesterday morning with adyices from Bue- nos Ayres to the l4th, and from Monteyideo to the 18th of last October Our thanks are due 10 Capt. N. for a liberal supply of pa pers, Sc.
 l. seems that the United States are raising a tremendous excitement. fl not a war, at over the world.
 Com. Voorhees, of Aie .l3aerican Sqead ron, had seized he phole Argentine fleet, fo, qa Infringement of Inc neutral rights of Ht former.
 This extraordinary affair had produced a great sensation in that section of the world
 In the account we give of it there is such a strong Buenos Ayrean bias, that no correct idea of its causes can be formed for the pres- ent.
 Verbally, we learn that the Argentine fleet had offered gross insult to the Ameri- can brig of war Bainbridge, and the Ameri- can barque Rosalva, beloning to Silas E. Bur roughs, of this city.
 It is reported that the first cause of the difficulty was in the fact, that the Rosalva had been fired into aud seven men killed.
 We regret to state the Commander, w. D. Newman, of the U. s. brig Bainbridge, was drowned on the lth of October last This officer is reported to have committed suicide i'll the harbor of Montevideo. It is said that his vessel, the Bainbridge, was fired into of the port, by Buenos Ayres brig; this insult Captain Newman did not return. The affair exciting some conversation on shore, among the English and French naval officers, Cap. Ms. fine sensibility was touched; and on the night of the llth, he threw himself into the sea and was drowned. All who knew him esteemed him. He was one of the most promising officers in the service
 The United States ships Congress and Boston and brig Bainbridge were at Monte video on the 18th Oct.-.E r. Heraid.
