The Mexican boundary Commlssion.

We learn from the San Antonio Letgey, that Ge-
neral Campbell, the United States Boundary Com
missioner, had returned to that city on the I'd inst,
from his late arduous tour to the westward, in excel
lent health.
On leaving San Antonio the General pushed for
Ringgold barracks From thence he proceeded 10
Brownsville. Detouring he struck for Redmsn's
Rancho, and from the latter place back again TO San
Antonio. We gather from brief conversation with
Mr. L. Campbell, who accompanied his father as SEQ
rotary, that Lieutenant Michlin has already COM
peted his allotted portion of survey, commencing
some one hundred and fifty miles above the mouth Of
the Pecos, and extending down the Rio Grande to
the mouth of the Pecos.
Mr.. Shot, who was ordered to survey Laredo to
Ripgg0d barracks, has achieved about half the dis.
lance. Mr.. Radminski, who was placed upon that
portion of the route intervening between Ringgoli
barracks and the mouth of the Rio Grande has COM
pleted about two thirds Of the distance.
Major Emery the Chief Engineer, having fulfilled
his duty in determining the points of latitude and
longitude and general reconnaissance of the route
is now on hia way to Washington. The govern
ment will be delighted to learn that the entire
survey will be finished by the first Of Novem-
Der next, although the time allotted will not expire
before the 4th of April 1854. The work, too, will
be performed within the appropriation.

lity Of those who will be now willing to leave China
The mischief IL, that persons guilty Of oppression
exercised towards coolies escape almost entirely
without punishment, and it is very difficult to an
ticipate the evil. British law in China can only be
enforced through the British Consus, and the
persons concerned in emigration could, with the
support connivance Of the Chinese autho rites,
which would be readily obtained, ship their emf
grants at places in which no British consular autho.
rity existed, and in which, consequently, the ships
ceedngs which is derived from the existence Of such
an authority. 1t may be possible to make some regu-
lations which shall diminish the evil. A penalty
might be imposed on any British ship that took in
passengers before receiving certificate from the
consul that she was in proper condition for the
voyage, or which took in greater number Of emf
grants than was allowed by the certificate. When,
too, British colony is the destination of the ship 1t
is comparatively easy to make persons offending
against British law amenable to its discipline. 1t
might thus be possible, in the course Of time, to
vince the natives that emigrants to British colony
were always properly cared for, whatever were the
suferiDgs endured by those who were conveyed to
other destinations. From Annoy alone 5000 emf
grants could Il Is said, be procured annuamy Or even
double that number, with improved facilities. This
is q source of free labor inexhaustible and of the
very character requisite to give their proper value to
our West India possessions 1t cannot be supposed
that England will really endure that the selfish
shorsightedness of few shipowners and captains
should deprive her Of SO important an element of
wealth.

which he was placed upon the Democratic ticket,
