The subject of illegal exactons was again referred to-
Complaint made by an importer of q severe hard

stated that within few days past the Secretary of the
Treasury had instructed the Collector at this port to the
effect that the department would not refund aU duties

existing statute Of limit alton presented legal bar to
the allowance thereof 1t contended that any such
statute existed 1t unjust and oppressive and should
be repealed. The claims Of government against ind
viduals barred by limitation of statute and
neither should those Of individuals against the govern
ment be shut out.
The suit which we noticed yesterday was commenced
chiefly in reference to other ,tions considered
illegal and which were not barred by any existing
statute.
At meeting of the Chamber Of Commerce, held ycs.
terday, the committee previously appointed to visit the
Secretary Of the Treasury at Washington respecting the
establishment Of Assay Office in this city, gave notice.
through their chairman, Charles L. Frost Esq, that
they not prepared to make full report. The com.

| The GARDNER CAsE-ANoTHER SEARCH FOR
| THOSE MINEs.-We are informed that Major Nor
| decai, Of the Ordnance corps, and two other
officers of the army have been detailed to Mex
| leo. to make another thorough search for the
silver mines of DR.. George A. Gardner, for the
suspension Of which, on account Of the Mexican
war, his claim Of nearly half million was
brought against, and paid by, the treasury Of
the United States. In the meantime the jury
having been discharged in the late trial of DR..
Gardner for perjury, and another trial having
been superseded by the other matters before the
criminal court at Washington, we presume that
the case of the said Gardner will be continued
over to the September term. Before that time,
Major Mordecai may, perhaps, find those mines.
When he does, we shall expect to hear from
him. Let him be quick about it, or he may be
cut short in his explorations by another war.
No TINE LosT.-It is remarkable fact, in
illustration of the speed Of the Collins line of
steamers. that by the last trip of the Pacific to
liverpool, merchants in that city received re-
plies from their correspondents in New York in
the uaprecedentedly short space Of twenty days.
The Atlantic, which arrived in this port on the
morning of the 14th of May, made the trip in
nine days and twenty-five hours, and some of
the commercial advices which she brought
were answered by mercantile houses here in
time for the Pacifc's mails which left at noon
of the same day, and which made the trip to
Liverpool in nine days and twenty-three hours.
These two passages. hitherward and back hav-
ing only consumed together nineteen days and
twcnty-one hours, merchants in Liverpool were
as we have said, enabled to receive replies to
their New York correspondence in twenty days.
We believe an instance of the kind has never
occurred in the past history Of transatlantic
steamships. 1t therefore deserves to be placed
on record.

world. To the same class belongs also the sect
who inhabited New Harmony, in Indiana, estab-
lished by Robert Owen, of Lanark. How much
or how little of our creed these various bodies
believe. it would be very difficult to say. We
only know of certainty that they deny many
truths which we consider essential, and stand
pledged to doctrines which we regard as incon-
sistent with sound morality. The liberation
they obtain is perhaps not less significant as a
test of our manners and customs than the con-
temptuous silence bestowed on the Hartford
Convention.
THE FRONTIER INDIANs-S0METHING TO THE
PoNT.--We have frequently suggested to the
administration the policy Of closing up the en-
croachments of our frontier Indians into
that margin of open country which lies
south of the Gila, and which, under the govern
ment of Mexico, has been laid waste and depop-
ulated of its white inhabitants by the Apaches.
The possession Of this strip of territory by the
United States, and it's settlement by our enter
prising and warlike backwoodsmen and prairie
men. would form an impossible barrier to our
would thus effectually cut off their numbering
and plundering forays into the villages, towns
and cities of Mexico. We are, therefore, graft
fed to learn that Gen. Gadsden, our new minis
ter to Mexico is in favor of the plan of quiet
ing, not only the Mesilla valley dispute, by an
indemnity to Mexico, but our frontier Indian
disturbances by the purchase of the aforesaid
roin Of -
labyrinth through which the ella has cut its
wild and rocky passage.
This is something to the point, and in the long
run we do not know but that it would be cheap
er, in convenient instalments, to buy the whole
of Mexico, than to annex it through the expen-
sive agencies of gunpowder and military glory,
and pay for it afterwards. By the one process
or the other, however, something must now be
done. We nNst buy off Santa Anna or fight
him. There is no other alternative.
The WAR QUESTION MOVEMENT
We understand that General Mansfield Inspec-
tor General Of the Army, has been ordered to
visit of reconnaissance of the Mesilla or disput-
ed territory between Mexico and the United
States. Viewed in any light this is an impor-
tant movement; but, taken in connection with
the late official pronunciamento of the admin
istration, it has lively odor of villanous
saltpetre" A war with Mexico just now will
be much easier to get into, on both sides, than
any satisfactory schedule Of peaceful and bona
fde negotiations. Let Wall street consider the
question, and count up the apparently inevita-
BILE contingencies Of manifest destiny" and
then answer us, if it can, is there no danger of
war? What becomes of Cuba in the event of
another war with Mexico? Does not that ques-
ton suggest startling temptation to a rupture
with Santa Anna? Yes, yes, there is prospect
Of war.
