The bark Grapeshot was lowed down TO the Hook by

Patrick Mclaughlin, alias Paudeen, were aiding
and abettiug in the murder; that John Hyler, Cor
neus Linn Charles Van Pelt, James Irwin, aud
John Morrissey were accessories before the fact;
and that the said John Morrissey was further
guilty of an assault with intent TO take the life
of Poole.
Some additional particulars Of the news from
Mexico to the 9th inst. have come to hand. They
re-afirm the reported defeat of the revolutionary
army under Marine, and the signal success OF Santa
Annals last campaign In the South. AT Pedro
Gordo the insurgents had also sustained defeat
General Ampudia had put do wn the malcontents
in Yucatar, and, in fact, in every direction the
rebellion was being "crushed out" Bot all these
accounts emanste from the special organs Of Santa
Anna, and are, therefore, entitled to but little
credit.
The bark Grapeshot left this port yesterday in
pursuit of the Isabella Jewett, board Of which it
is supposed Louis Baker, the murderer of Bill Poole,
took passage for the Canary Islands.
The New York Senate on Saturday afternoon re-
sumed the discussion of the prohibitory liquor law.
Mr.. Putnam explained his assertion, previously
made, that certain members of the Assembly vot. ID
for the bill with the understanding that it would be
shorn of some of its Objectionable provisions by the
Senate. He reiterated the state ment, OF the truth
of which there is not the slightest doubt, but
disclaimed any intention of attributing impro-
per motives to members who so voted. sketch
Of the debate is given under the telegraphic
head, from which 1t appears that the unconssitu-
tionaty of some of the clauses of the bill now be-
fore the Senate is pretty generally admitted. At
the rate the discussion on this subject has pro-
gressed there is little probability of its becoming
law before the first of May, at which time liquor
licenses renewed to continue in force one year
thereafter. 1t is stated that Mr. St. John has bse6
settled upon for Superintendent of the Bank Depart
ment. During the week it is supposed something
will be done for the patient and long suffering app
cants for hsrbor masterships.
We give in another column the official document
from the President of the United States, which
proclaims the Reciprocity Treaty in full force from
and after the 10th day of the present month.

DEFEAT OF THE REvoLUTIoNIsrs-ramnpH An
SANTA ANNA-rHz WAR IN YUCATAN AT AN KNDs
BALrMoRE, March 10, 1856,
The New Orleans papers Of Monday contain the details
Of the Mexican news, to the 9Th inst.
The Herald ct the 4th, says the insurgents were ay
ing before Santa Anna and his presence in the South
had been sufficient TO make the reyoutonsts experience
the greatest route.
A letter from the Minister Of War, dated IgnaIa,.
March says Moreno had been captured and would 30
executed. The rebels had also been routed BY The gov
eminent troops at Pedro Gordo.
General Ampudia had taken possession of Yucatan,
and the war there had ended.
The accounts are given in the usual Mexican bonn
bast, and are probably exaggerated.
The dates from the Rio Grande are to the 28th ult
and Galveston to the 10th inst No news from either
quarter.

THE VERDICT OF THE JuRY-A GREAT Fuss
FOR NoTIlNG The Coroner's jury in the mat
ter of the Stanwix Hall murder have found
substantially that Baker killed Poole that
James Turner and Paudeen were directly guilty
in abetting the assassination that lily Ter, Linn
and Van Pelt are guilty as accessories before
the fact. and that Merrssey and Irwin are also
guilty rs accessories to the murder. We sup
pose tba. the Grand Jury will proceed accord.
ipely to inaict these parties, to the end of a
criminal prosecution but their indictment, we
fear will be the last of this nine days wonder.
BY hook or by crook, by delays upon various
pretences and upon quibbes and technicalties,
and through bribery ard corruption, these
accused men will, most likely, slip through the
fingers Of justice, and be turned loose again
upon the community. We have seen such
things heretofore.
The hue and cry, the mighty preparations,
the intense excitement, vigilance and activity
paraded before the world, in regard to the
search for and pursuit of Baker, is truly
sickening. 1t is all CANNON. But Tor the
corrupt affiliations Of the police with these
pugilists, through the detestable cleo
pioneering machinery Of our old political
parties, Baker could. and doubtless
would have been arrested on the night
or morning Of the murder. The evidence
proves that he was spirited away through the
ircachcry ard perjury Of the public agents
hound under cath and under pay to secure
him. When be il captured, we shall hear Of

REJOIEDER OF OLE BULL TO MR.. MARETzEK.
TO THE PUBLIC.
With much reluctance once more intrude myself
upon your notice. in reply to the letter Of Mr. Maretzek
which appeared on Saturday.
As that letter in itself in great corroborate
my previous statement, am willing, with brief com

those who have assailed my reputation.
Mr.. Maretzek's assertion that "to wilfuly conduc,

Beyond this win only briefly refer to the exceedingly

it--no doubt of that. In the meantime we
may count, at least, upon sham trial Of the
conspirators secured; but we cannot promise
our citizens that it will be any thing bet
ter than a sham.
Our contemporaries of the country journals
are very indignant concerning the state Of
society, politics and justice, law and order
existing in New York, as illustrated by the
Developments of this ruffianly tragedy; and
well may they be. But our city newspaper
press is uDjustly accused of pandering to this
deplorable state of things. We say unjustly
accused; for the truth is that this vast metro
politan community owe whatever of law and
order they may still have to the vigilance and
energy Of our Independent newspaper press.
flour city journals were suspended for week,
burglars, rogues and assassins, crimes and
anarchy, would run riot amongst u.s. Put out
the city gas lights for q week, and what
schedule of robberies, fires, and murders would
be the results But suspend the newspaper
press for the same time, and the moral dark
ness which would follow would be far more
conducive to the reign of ruffans and ter
rorism than physical darkness.
We pay from five to six millions of taxes
year for city government but the corrup-
tons of the old parties and their rufianly
associations and instincts, have reduced US to the
mercy Of an organized vagabondism only
efficient check upon which in extreme cases is
our newspaper press. Yet we hope for better
things. Mayor Wood has discovered the i'm
portant fact that considerable majority of
the people of this great metropolis are in favor
of the usages and restraints Of civilized socie-
ty \; and within year or two we are sanguine
of the success of new political party here,
totally dispensing with the services of rufians
and vagabonds in the management of our poll
tical affairs. In the interval let us be consoled
with the fact that the bark Grapeshot is off
in the pursuit of Baker.

tween Berlin and st. Petersburg. Lord John
Russell, actually in the former city, must have
been still better able to Judge Of che anthem
ITCHY of story coming from Russia by that
channel. To be deceived in such case would
argue degree of ignorance and recklessness
fatal to almost any minister; more especially to
men barely tolerated as matters stood If the
bitterest enemy of the Palmerston Cabinet had
sought the surest means of injuring it, he could
have devised nothing more effective than such
hoax as this; and yet, when no necessity ex-
listed for committal on their part we find three
members spontaneously assuming the RESPONSE
bility CT the news.
Under these circumstances, we, for our part,
have robust faith in the death of Nicholas.
We cannot bring ourselves to believe that
Nicholas could have laid trap to hoax the
world; ard weighing probabilities, unless he
had hand in the hoax himself, we think it
more likely that the intelligence is correct
than that some rogue has, at the imminent risk
of bis own neck, forged the story, and done it
SO well as to make the people of England ex-
pect it beforehand, deceive the men least likely
to be deceived, and completely entrap the
Russian party at Berlin. Every one knows
the story of the dentist who had himself killed
in print, for the purpose Of advertising his
false teeth by brilliant resurrection; but the
Gear could hardly gain anything by similar
leaf from Mr.. Barnum's book. A few days
will solve the mystery; meanwhile it is better
to be believer than sceptic.
