Tie steamship Merimack has been ordered TO Anap-
oils, with view to its examination by Members OF
Concless as well as to afford means OF instruction TO
the acting midshipmen of the Naval Academy.

ic valued Nv these officers beyond the decorations 50
commonly bestowed by royalty, and not Only strengthen

countries. but what S Of more importance might, by

MEXICO.
SURRENDER OF THE PUEBnA REy0LJ-
TIONISTS
pany dispers'

From The Nev. Orleans Pieoyyre Of dp,ii4 :"
The Mexican brig Hercules, Capt. P'rnarino, arlved
here yesterday from Vera Cruz which port she lea o.
the Goth ult four days after the steamship Texas o.
her late trip She brings papers, however, whish -
to be regretted they would have afforded particu
lars of interest in reference to an important oveaf,
the occurrence of which she brings intelligence.
The Puebla revolutiOnists reported to have SIM
rendered to the Government forces on Saturday the
22d uh the day after Good Friday, and the dayof tho
departure of the Texas from Vera Cruz. They arc
stated TO have surrendered at dscIetion but this ~
incompatible with few details which passeager %
the Hercules SAYS be saw given in some OF tbs Vera
Cruz papers. He says that it was therein reported
that parley had taken place between General who
announced himself in command OF the rcvoiati0n-
hts and two officers on behalf of the Government the
result of which agreement that such d tho
reyoutionss as cbose should be allowed to join the
army and the rest be permitted return 10 their h0raes
unmolested. Neither Haro Tamariz nor Castillo APP
peared in the matter they referred 70 in the
conditions of surrender. These last, it is said,
published at full length in the Vera Cruz papers.
We hear with regret that those who are in position
to form reliable Judgment on the subject, consider
the whole proceeding mere cOmprOmse hetween the
revout and the Government, indicating that tho
latter found themselves unable really to overcome the
former while the reyoutionsts have adopted the step
merely for the purpose of gaining time, and seising
better opportunity for carrying out thor object. IL is
said, too, that they numerous and strong enough
TO insure their eventual success.
For our own part, however We should be inclined
to doubt the correctness of the report of the conditions
of the surrender; and although well UNDER
stand that the country is likely to be continually dis
turb.d by reyoutionsts and brigandsge long lts
present population hold it, we should yet not think 1t
probable that the paisans Of the Puebla revolution
will be able to revive that particular manifestation Of
the characteristics restessness of the people.
BE this ~ it may, it is some satisfaction to know
that for the present at least communications from
Vera Cruz with the interior freely opened, and
that busness men and Others were taking advantage
of the Improvement. For fuller and Is to be hoped
more satisfactory particulars, we suppose We shat
have To- await the arrival or the Texas, due on the

ing the President as recreant to his duty as her
constitutional guardian, and connving with her
invaders and oppressors to effect her subjugation
and enslavement the accusation is heard, but the
accused has interposed two independent pleas in
anticipation; these pleas are examined and found
to be in part an evasion in part recrimination,
and in the whole virtual confession and confirma-
tiOn Of the charge. Then the statements Of the
party OrerbOrne in the Kansas Elections
are set forth, followed by the exuting
bulletins Of their cOnquerors and these again
are found in substantial agreement with each
other and with the allegations Of Kansas, the sdms-
sions of Pierce Then the pretended Territorial
Legislature il brought to the stand, and made TO
testify by its acts 10 the character of its parentage
the place Of its origin. All unerringly point TO
Missouri as the source and support of that Legisla-
ture, the prompter aud guide of its acts Rarely
has more effective point been made than when
Gov s., holding up the official Acts of the (bOgus)
Legislature of Kansas, consisting for the greater
part Of laws of Missouri adopted bodily, he read
the first original act following these wholesale
transfers, and providing that wherever in the fore
going the word " Stote occurs, it is TO be under

will not follow him through the speech; but /
think that part of it which afirms the peaceful
ness, simplicity, readiness, and efficiency of the
Free-Stste remedy for all the evils and disorders
affecting Kansas and threatening the peace OF the
Union, was most convincing. Admit Kansas a
State, and all danger fear Of rebellion disuniOn
civil war, is at an end. And why not admit herr
What reason can be honestly given for delay that

Slavery Well: Kansas surrendered, to secure
Slavery in Missouri, Utah must 90 next to secure
it in Kansas-and so on indefinitely. Where is to
be the end And where can we stop so safely as
just here
This speech will be read by millions, and treas
ured in myriads of generous hearts. 1t makes no
appeal to international ealOusies, to personal aspi
rations, nor the preudces Of caste, but constantly
addresses itsclf to what is nOblest and highest in
our common nature. Its gravity BELTS the im-
mensity of the stake, the hight Of the precipice to
which Slavery Propagandism and the selfseeking
completely Of aspiring politicians are hurryng the
American People. But on the brink Of that preci
pce this peril will be averted. j feel surer since
listening to Gov. Seward that civil war will be
prevented, the Slave Power defeated, and Kansas
consecroted to Impartial Freedom. / believe
there are Nebraska Democrats in the Senate who
will vote to admit her at this Session, and under
her Free Constitution. IL. 6.

F-cr, Orr Own Cor

WASHINGTON, Thursday April TO- 1856.
At the consultation of the Judges of the Supreme
Court last night on the Missouri case the majority
declared in favor of jurisdiction. 1t is understood
that they stand: Judges Mclean, Curtis, Grler,
Campbell, and CatrOn in the affirmative; and
Judges fancy, Wayne, Nelson, and Daniel in the
negative
Another Conference is ordered for Saturday night,
to determine how the Judges denying the juris-
diction can give opinions on the merits ofthe case
This difficulty will be solved by Judge Catron or
Judge Campbell, who while affirming the juris-
diction, will agree will the dissentients in denying
the right of freedom claimed by the colOred plain
tiff. Others can acQuiesce, each deliver separ-
ate opinion
The decree will be rendered next week Judges
Mclean and Curtis sustaining the consttutIonslity
of the Missouri Compromise, and Judge Grier COZ
curing. These opinions can hardly fail in making
large impression on the country.
