Later from Venezuela.

The schooner Catharine, Captain Rowan, from
Curacao, July %, brought news from the Spanish
Main to within day or two of his sailing, show
ing the wretched condition of some of the classes
since the accession of Monagas to the Presidency.
Government, in order to raise the means of fitting
out a force to oppose General Paez, had been obliged
to impose heavy taxes on every species of prop
erty. Many merchants in Porto Cabello, La
guayra and Caracas had refused, either from inn
bility or unwillingness, to comply, and in conse-
quence of this they had been imprisoned until they
yielded TO the demand. Troops are being collected
to he sent to Coro, where General Paez is at this
time. The number variously stated at from
eight hundred to two thousand five hundred, and
to be sent, via Valencia, by canal it is expected
that the march of General Paez will be directed to-
wards that place. General Paez was TO have left
Coro on the Doth, with about one thousand men,
but it is not known positively whether he had left
or not at the last accounts. Government is fitting
out at Porto Cabello two small schooners and the
steamer ScouTge, which has just been undergoing
her second trial Ii is not known positively whe-
Their she has been condemned or not, but they are
fitting her for The last we heard of the trial
it was still going on in Valencia. The Libertador,
once the Augusta is still in Maracaibo. The jack
son, lately called the Buena Vista, is aground, bow
and stern, in Porto Cabelo. She is reported as
being entirely worthless for any purpose There
is no man-of-war in any ports of the Main at this
time; bat it is to be hoped that the proper author-
ties will consider it their duty to send one imme-
diately, as it is impossible to say what emergency
may require one here in view of what may be ex-
r,ected in Venezuela

The st. Paul (Minesota) Register, of late date,
has the following interesting article:
within the limits of the territories of the Hud-
son Bay Company there resides a class Of men
who, ground down by the tyranny of that huge
monopoly, seek to place themselves under the pro-
lection of the United States. These men are usual
y known as the Red River haIf-breeds. They
are, generally speaking, of mixed Indian, English
Scotch, or French blood. Brought up from earliest
youth to feel that their subsistence will depend up
on their skill horsemen and hunters, they accus-
tom themselves TO every exercise and privaton
which tend to harden their muscles and pre-
pare them for their vocation. As matter of course,
the whole body of these hunters are capital horse
men and amazingly expert in the use Of firearms.
Depending entirely upon the Hudson Bay Company
for ammunition and arms, they must submit to any
and all the arbitrary rules imposed upon them, and
they are heartily tired of these exactions.
'sTwice each year these hunters, four or five hun
bred in number start for the American territories
after the buffalo, with from thousand to twelve
hundred carts, drawn by horses or oxen, which
are driven by the women and children The men
are governed by fixed rules while at the hunt,
which must not be nfringed under severe penalties.
Ihcy all leave INC camp toScthcT, WIN the cxcep-
ton of few who are left guard; and when a
cerne or surround of buffalo has taken place, the
women and children are sent for to assist in butcher
ing and drying the meat Of the slain animals Each
cart will contain the pemican Tor dried meat pound
ed and melted taow poured over it) often bufaloes;
so that the slaughter of these animals may be esti-
mated at upwards of twenty thousand annually.
The meat thus prepared is purchased at a small
price by the Hudson Bay Company and is used to
provision the inland trading posts. Attempt has,
on one occasion, been made to prevent the incur
sions Of those people within our boundaries, but
without effect. Many of these mixed bloods desire
now to remove to Pembina, which is on the Amer-
can side of the ine and settle there if permission
can be obtained from our Government. They.
would constitute formidable and efficient defence
to our northern frontier in case of Indian disturb
ances, as they much feared by all the different
tribes The British settlement at Red river, in the
vicinity of Fort Gary, numbers about FIVE thou
