dian war in that republic.
The Indian depredations still continued
They had assembled in large force at planta-
ton, called Chucabcheen, some three leagues
and a-hali from the town Of Vallado i'd, on the
2Sh December; but the inhabitants Of that place
did not fear any attack, as they had large gdrri-
con to protect them. At the town Of Sotuta,
Immediately after the entry of the troops under
General Rosado, the IadiaDs dispersed, and fled,
and Rosada passed on TO Peto but Welding to
the earnest entreatles of the people Of Yaxcabe,
who considered themselves in danger, he sent
Col Dlaz back with 200 men 10 guard this point
Ga their march, they had a sklrmieh W tn the
Indisns, and two officers and a solder were
wounded; the Indians also suffered much loss
and those that were taken prisoners were set AZ
liberty, afler Kind treatment, in order 10 ~ if
this Unity would not have beneficial effect on
these ssvags
Save In VaiIedolid, Sotuta and Peto, all the
other parts OF the republic were quite tranquil.

MODEL SERMONS ON MODEL ARTI.Ts.-We ex-
pect great lectures from some of the pulpits to-
day, on the subject of Model Artists The re-
presentation of Adam and I've IN the garden of
Eden, before the fall, will be particularly de-
nounced; as also will the other groups furnish.
ed by the Holy Scriptures, and represented in
character. We understand that several of our
clergymen, disguised in coaks and mustacbes,
have been going about town visiting these Model
Artists, studying their pastures with great at
tenton, in order TO enable them to give full ac-
counts and shocking disclosures of the same in
their sermons to-day. The Legislature, at Alba
ny, will also be called upon. We have, there
fore, reason TO believe that these exhibitions, like
masquerades, will soon be abolished and sup
pressed. Those who want sight before they
go, had better be quick, for this IL, undoubtedly
their last week

History AND ROMANCE UNIrED.-One of the
peculiar features of modern literature is the sys-
TEN of illustrating interesting portions of history,
by writing romances on that particular era, and
exhibiting the traits of the times and living char
acters of men and women, either historical or
fsnciful. The great popularity of Sir Walter
SCOTS novels grew out of the illustrations
which he gave Of the romantic history of Scot
land, during the transition period, when il was
passing from an age OF semi-barbarsm TO an age
of comparative refinement. The same system was
followed in England, in variety of respects, by
the literary men of that country; and, of late
years, the htterateurs OF Paris have adopted the
same idea in illustrating the early history of
France.
One of the most interesting countries, coun-
try full of romance and of mingled traits Of lib
erty, and religion, despotism, and everything else
is undoubtedly Ireland. Many writers, and
able ones, have been engaged in giving their
works 10 the world, descriptive of the great An
glo-Norman conquest OF that country, about eight
hundred years ago Among others, we under
stand that the well known Mr. Maturin, now
resident OF this city, and son of the Rev. Mr.. Ma
turin, the author of Melmeth, has been engaged
for some time past, in writing novel which he
calls Eva or the Isles of Life and DEATH" but
which is in tact history of the first invasion of
Ireland by the Anglo-Normans. This work is
printing in both London and New York at this
moment, and will be published in a few weeks
The interest which Ireland is beginning to excite
in this country, will undoubtedly give it great
popularity here. The consequences Of that great
invasion, are felt TO this day, in unfortunate Ire
land; but correct and graphic view oflhe charsc
tcrisucs and manners durin that conquest have
never been brought before the public. The work
in question will supply the deficiency. and we
have no doubt il will be read with great inter
est in both countries.

MA tkisl's IksAff wtfA Mksieo. Among
ihe various fnmors and sarmi.es In reference &c
the treaty which il is supposed Mr. Trist has
either negotiated or proposed, we find the fol-
lowing Ia the Washington CORE spondence of the
Journal Of Commsce of this city,
The truth ia that Mr. Mcintosh has INCREASINGLY en-
desvored to effect treaty He persuaded Santa Anna
TO treat and assured General Scott that treaty would
be made and thereby brought about the armsice prior
TO the final battles before Mexico Since that time Mr.
Mcintosh has unwesriedy operated upon the govern
ment at Queretaro with view TO effect peace He
brought the three commissioners from Querearo to the
city OF Mexico to make overtures rather to confirm
The head of the commission was Mr. Mclntoshs own
legal adviser aud attorney and the other two also
completely under his influence They were ready to sign
any thing that the at Quere would rati
fy Their propositions have been, without ratification
by the Mexican government forwarded to this govern
ment and they are IN such shape that they cannot be
recognized They would justify the President il sending
sutsbis person as commissioner to Mexico to treat
With the government at Qusretaro.
Mr. Mcintosh thinks that, with money enough he
buy thirds Of the Mexican Congress- and receive
a treaty such the President will accept
The treaty thus made, will be worth 80 much of waste
paper But it will afford to this to
DO what they ought to do without treaty TO withdraw
the troops stop the and hold the boundary that
intend TO retain.
The Mr.. McIntosh mentioned above, is the
agent of the English in Mexico, and for long
time has enjoyed monopoly of the exchange
business. 1t is not at all unlikely that he has
interested himself to the utmost of his power to
get treaty negotiated, for the purpose of pro-
tecting and favoring the English interests in
that country, which are very extensive, and
connected principally with the mines. In case
the United States should ultimately determine
| TO hold on to Mexico il would be of the highest
importance to those interested to know what
disposition would be made of their claims; and
therefore, ii is not improbable that he has exert
ed himself to procure such treaty as would OBJ
viate the complete annexation of the country
If so, it is not unlikely that the whole matter
will end in smoke.

The AUToCRAT OF THE NEWSPAPER Pass
Many of the gossipping papers amuse themselves
and their readers very much, in their estimation,
ny representing the conductor of the Ne,o York
Herald as the 60 autocrat of the press the Ma
poleon of the press" the " charlatan of the
PRESS" the "tyrant of the PRESS sc. sc.
Perhaps they will not be pleased to learn, that
there is not so much ola Joke in these appella-
tlons they imagine. At this moment the
Herald has larger and more extensive circu-
lation, and is read by greater number of indi-
viduals, than any other journal in the civilized
world, not even excepting the most popular Jour-
mails Of London and Paris. Our aggregate clrcu-
lation about these days, is nearly forty screen
thousand copies, aud at one period during the last
few months, ii reached over fifty thousand, being
fifty thousand eight hundred and eighty. There
ID no other new spaper establishment in the world
that can present so great an aggregate amount OF
circulation, as that which we now state. 1t is
without parallel in New York, London, or
Paris; and such fact can be established by the
most indisputable evidences.
One ofthe wonders OF this matter is the rapidly
with which this establishment has grown. The
London Times has taken thirty years, and more
and the most Furnishing papers on this continent
dnu IN the ola nave taken about tlrd more
time, 10 reach lower point OF circulation than
II has taken the Herald TO reach its present stand
ing. The repdity and growth of the Herald es-
Establishment are extraordinary; and the momen-
tum with which it moves forward, is just as re-
markable as that Of the growth itself
Another polnt,-the cheap journals of the day
are. read by only one or two persons, those who
subscribe TO them. In this respect, the Herald
differs fronrits contemporaries. There is hardly
a number Of the Herald that is not read by at
least half dozen people, 70: every copy is pass
ed round, from hand to hand, in hotels, railroad
cars, public Offices, and private houses, wher-
ever seen so that the readers of the Herald NAV
be estimated at nearly half million of the most
intelligent people of the age, in both the old
world and the Yet,with all this vast progress
and hourishing position, we are making addl-
tiona Improvements, that will produce greater
change than any we have yet seen We are
building new vaults, constructing fast presses,
procuring new steam engines, and reconstruct
ing our whole establishment from top to bottom
in such way as will enable us to publish such a
journal as will be unexampled IN the history of
newspapers from the discovery of printing to
the present day. Our cash advertising system
has already met with unexampled success. The
freshness of the new advertisements every morn
ing makes people read them. and is already be-
ginning to work a revolution in that business.

TAINED.-Never have we witnessed q
more imposing demonstration in which
men ofall parties heanial!y united, than
that of Saturday evening at Tammany
Hall, to sustain the justice of the war and
the honor of the country. We regretted
TO see anything Of a party character in.
troduced in the resolutions, for there were
hundreds of leading wings present. who
joined as heartily in vocilerous applause
OF the war, as any democrat. The great.
est unanimity prevailed, however, Not
the slightest evidence of dissention upon
the objects of the meeting was perez ti.
bic throughout the evening. About ten
thousands persons visited the Hall or par.
ticipated in the proceedings. The great
demonstration proved conclusively that
but one opinion prevails among the people
ofthis city upon the war question, and
the policy to be pursued with Mexico
