MARTIN VAN BUREN,.

The venerable sage of Kinderhook was,
at the last accounts, still thawiDg his cold
blood beneath the sunny skies of Paris
There must be much congeniality of tastes
and temperament between Louis Napoleon
and Martin Van Buren. If Louis has va
cant place in his Cabinet, we recommend
Martin for the position. On this side the
Arctic circle, there is not, except Louis, a
more crafty, calculating, cold, repulsive be-
ing, than the venerable fossil of Kinderhook.
When he drops into the purgatorial flames,
the engineer of that region must be on the
alert or the descending iceberg will put all
his fires out 1t would be wiser in Martin,
at his time of life, instead of hopping about
in the gay saloons of Paris, and hobno bling
with the kindred spirit on the French throne,
to prepare for visit to the court of the En-
peror Nicholas not of Russia-but of those
tropical regions, where old politicians per-
form involuntary penance.
Perhaps no man in the United States has
done more to widen sectional differences and
promote disunion than Martin Van Buren.
And all from disappointed ambition. There
is nothing of which such selfish and cor
rupt politician is incapable. "Rule or Ruin"
is the motto of his class.

DESTRUCTIVE FLOODS AT THE NoRTH.-
On the 9th, a destructive flood occurred at
Oramel, Allegheny, Canada, occasioned by
the rising OF creeks. Bridges and dams
were swept away, and 8 woman and two
children drowned, at Homesville, a number
of dwellings, and railroad bridge were
swept off and one woman drowned. The
trains on the Great Western Railway were
detained good deal by the embankments
bsing swept away. Another food occurred
few days ago on Elkhart river, in Indiana,
doing serious damage at Waterford, Benton
and Syracuse. The Elkhart Herald says the
loss in that county will not be less than
$50 600.

ANOTHER OUTRAGE DISPOSED ORA re-
port having been industriously circulated
that the Hon. John I'll. Wheeler, o. s Minis.
ter near the Republic of Nicaragua, had
been imprisoned by the Nicarsguan govern
ment, it meets with full denial in the Bole-
tin Official, published at Granada, on the Goth
OF May, In which the story is pronounced
can infamous calumny-a falsehood without
any kind of foundation in any respect" On
the contrary, it appears thai Mr.. Wheeler
reached Granada at time of some conside-
rable embarrassment, but was Immediately
introduced to General Chamorro and receiv-
ed with the greatest courtesy. He subse-
quently was received with all official honor.
AT re union of friends, at which the Presi
cent of the republic and his Ministers, with
Mr. Wheeler, were present, the latter in re.
ply to a toast complimentary to the U. States
Minister, remarked:
'' He felt obliged by such token of respect
he had seen with some pain in the papers a
notice of his imprisonment by the Govern
ment OF Nicaragua, where he had received
only testimonials ofrespect and cordial friend
ship. If by the term imprisonment was
meant those ties of friendship by which the
people of Nicaragua had bound him-by
their unexpected and unsolicited acts of
kindness to himself and his Government
then these newspapers had spok en- truthfully,
for In this sense he was indeed prisoner,
bound hand and heart by their respect to the
Government of the United States and atten-
tions to their Minister to this republic"

INCREASE OF POPULATION IN NEW
YORK

According to statistics published in the N.
Y. Herald, the increase of population in the
city of New York during the last FIVE years,
has been two hundred and thirty five thou
sand, far greater increase than at any pre-
Vious period during the last 30 years. The
entire population of the city proper, as
shown by the report of the Census Marshal,
is about seven hundred and fifty Thousands;
and with the adjoining towns, including
Brooklyn, there are over million of people,
making 3 population greater than the aggre-
gate of several States. New York and Brook
lyn, it is supposed, will have one fourth of
the population of the Empire State, and be
represented in the Legislature by 32 mem.
bers of the Lower House and members Of
the Senate.
The most populous ward in New York is
the Eleventh, the population of which, upon
8 territory of only about three-tenths of
square mile, is estimated at sixty five thou
sand

THE INDIAN WAR.-The superintendent of
Indian affairs in New Mexico states, that
during the month of May, there was conside-

the Utah and La Carilla Indians. The latter
lost AZ killed, and the troops lost only two.
1t is found difficult to prevail upon the Pue-
bio Indians, to receive the agricultural i'm
plements rendered them by the U. s. gov
eFnment agents. They say that Mexico once
gave the presents and demanded pay for
them, and they fear that our government

FROM Rio JANEIRo-The bark Panama
has arrived at New Orleans from Rio ia
| nero, with dates to the 22d May. The Leg
islature was in session. The project to amend
the mortmain laws, introduced last year, was
taken up and discussed Its principal pro-
visions are that the Government shall be
authorized to grant licenses to mortmain
corporations to acquire and hold under any
title, land or properties for the building of
churches, chapels, cemeteries, hospitals, ed
ucational constitutions, asylums, buildings,
or any other establishments for pious pur-
poses. long and warm discussion took
place in reference to the reply to the speech
from the Throne, in which it was proposed
to censure the Ministry for want of economy
in the administration of the affairs of the
Empire. The expensiveness anal unsatisfac
tory working of telegraph lines were among
the subjects of complaint. The discussion
was kept up to so late an hour that the Cham.
bers had to adjourn the debate The regatta
of Botafogo took place on the 2lst, which
was very largely attended, and among others
the Emperor and Empress French and
English boats joined with national ones in
the sport, and carried off some of the prizes
but we do not see that any American ones
took part in the proceedings.
