LATER FROM BROWNSVILLE --.acguiftal of
the Rerolutionists. Through the politeness of
Capt Staples, Of the schooner VIM. Mason, We
have received copy Of the Brownsville Flag
of the 21st ult., in which we find the following
in regard to the examination of the persons ao-
cused Of setting on foot, within American juris-i
diction, a movement against the Mexican Gov
eminent:
After o very patient investigation Of wit
nesses before the Commissioners Court, in this
city, the prisoners who were arraigned for trial
were discharged. Some sixty Witnesses, as we
understand, were examined, embracing some of
the FIRST men Of the place, but from none was
information of o character that would have led
to the conviction of the accused ELECTED, and
hence their discharge from custody.
This clearly proves the movement to have
been purely Mexican in its character; to have
been managed wholly by leaders of that nation,
who knew the unlawfulness Of organizing on
this bank, lif done here at all, and public opin-
ion, though there be no positive proof, fixes the
fact that it was) and who were particularly
cautious that the facts Of such an organization
should not transpire
These men Of Mexico have never asked for
either men or money of this Government. They
| only asked what the we'll known genius Of our
lustitutlohS, anu WhAb pT6ceueht, ab least, gave
| them right to expect-the temporary hospi-
tality Of this, from the oppression Of their own
| Government. That hospitality was generously
| extended, and if 1t has been violated, the same
has not been made manifest by proof.
/ A frequent repetition of such grounds Of com
plant, however, would not be reputable either
TO the honor of this Government, or the valoI
of the people said to be engaged therein. Better
would it be for them to copy the example Of the
| first conqueror Of Mexico, the valiant Cortes
| and once the sword is unsheathed, to throw
away the scabbard; and, destroying all means
of retreat, look only to that g victory or death
which was made the wax cry at the beginning
We find also the following items in the Flag

LECTURES.

Inetrres and lecturers. New assoclablons are
80, !. ,svNpo,.nced. and the names Of new speakers
sbaralded. It would take large portion Of our
ss,acs merely To mention the different indivlr
d.,als who now hold themselves in readiness for
lecturins engagements, hopeful either Of profit
or glory.
The mania for public lectures has not, as yet,
extended into the South. But few lyceums or
literary societies have been formed here for the
purpose Of engaging series Of orators during
stated period Of time, and popularizing know
ladga by sthe brilliant metaphors and antitheses
shey might dispense. Something Of pleasure
nd something IT profit Is, undoubtedly, lost BY
his disregard If q most useful and interesting
means Of intelligence and enlightenment Much
information that might be usefully dispensed
remains locked up, nuch ability that might be
displayed is disregarded, and much literary
grstiHcation overlooked.
There are, undoubtedly, some very serions
objections to be urged against the existing sys-
fem 81 public lectures Men Of small ability
are frequently chosen to teach the public, and
their addresses have wrong rather than q
right direction Even in those instances where
abs and educated men are induced to speak on
literary subjects or subjects Of general and i'm
mediate interest, some personal crotehst il ike
10 urotrude and mar the whole. Charles Summer
ID not make al address Without alluding to
war. nor Henry Beeoher without referring to
slavery, or Horace Greeley without making
mention cf temperance. In the long list Of
Of public lectures announced by Northern pa
pcrs, we have not met any name that has not
been committed to the advocacy or defense Of
some ism which, to say the least, were better
fitted for special occasions Of debate than for
general meetings. II must be apparent, too,
that no subject can be fully and thoroughly
treated in the short space Of time allowed for a
public address. Only the head and outlines
can be- alluded to--the body and substance
must be left for further research.
There are also some strong reasons in favor
of public lectures. They are calculated to at
tract many who would not otherwise seek for any
means Of information, and TO diffuse knowledge
that might remain looked mp. They condense
into d few eentences what, elsewhere, is dlfused
through much space. They make learning
agreeable, and tend to make it popular. They
awaken an interest that can only be allayed by
reading, and thus contribute something to the
spread Of general information. They probably
occupy time that might be foolishly frittered
away. They generally treat Of matters Of gen
era1 interest, and give an epitome Of what il
most valuable concerning them.
5 There are, then, arguments for and against
public lectures. Those in their favor seem to I'll

CONVICTION FOR MURDER George Jones and
his mother Nancy Jones, were convicted last
week in Madison county. before Judge Jewett,
for the murder of the father Of the first and
husband Of the latter, in that county some two
or three years ago, and have been sentenced to
be hung An appeal has been taken, however,
and the decision Of the Supreme Court at Aus
tin, will necessarily have to be heard, before
the unfortunate prisoners will know definitely
what disposition is to be made of them. George,
we are told by gentleman who was present,
manifested much nerve when Intercepted by
the Judge as to what he had to say why SEN
tence Of death should not be pronounced upon
him, and with the greatest equanimity and en-
tire selfpossession replied to his Honor that he
could only say he was entirely innocent Of the
charge preferred against him The old lady on
the contrary was moved to tears, and although
she had no fears of death, expressed regret
that she should be doomed to leave her children,
some of whom are quite young. She declared
her innocence, and affirmed that some Of the
witnesses had testified falsely against her. She
stood charged in the Indictment with being an
accessory before the fact, George being the
