tn, journal of Commerce SAYS:

1T is noteworthy fact that in nearly all the large
cities where the American party has had the power
for any considerable time disorders Of the most fright
full character have arisen
Whether these frghHul disorders" are justly
attributable to the American party" or to its
opponents is a point to be considered. According
to our observation, the blame should be about
equally divided between the "Natives" and the
Immigrants But, srce no journal has done more
than this very Journal Of Commerce to elevate the
American party to "power," we think the
above statement should have been accompanied BY
some signs of contrition.

An arrival at New Orleans from Tabasc) brings
accounts Of ON additional acquisition on the part of
the ZulOsga Government of Mexico. The port Of
Tabasco, after ten days bombardment, had fallen
into their hands, and they were making every eff
fort to strengthen and fortiy it. The zuloaga party
now possess the three ports of Tabasco, Tuspan and
Tampico, and it is probable that they will now be-
gin to derive considerable revenue from the i'm
port Of foreign goods through those ports. Zu-
losga has Issued decree closing the ports of Vera
Cruz and Matamoras in the Gulf of Mexico, and

ports are to be allow ed to discharge their cargoes
ia the Gulf, at Tuspan and on the Pacific, at Mszat
Ian. So far as Vera Cruz is concerned, the impos-
sblity of getting goods into the country will render
this closure effectual, and will thus cut off the au-
thOrties of that State from their main resource for
supporting the war. 1t would seem, also, that the
purchasers of church property in that State had
shewn a disposition to withhold their payments,
which, in the present condition of affairs, is not to
be wondered at. Gov. Zamora has issued decree
Orderirg prompt paymentto bemade. Meanwhilethe
success Of the Zuloaga Government in relieving
Tampico appears to have induced Vidaurri to
recall the forces which were lately dispatched to the
south, and he was reported to have fallen back on
Monterey, and to be waiting there for arms which
were expected from New-York. While the extent
of country occupied by tie Constituencies was
thus contracted, the Government at Mexico appears
to be proceeding with some vigOr in the way Of

The election in New Orleans yesterday resulted
in the choice of Gerard Stth the American cand
date, by small msjority 1t is stated that
not more than half the adherents of the
Vigilance Committee voted; but they still hold
their barbados and affirm their intention
to give peace to the city, which was last
night b diam. The result of the election is
probably due to the events of Saturday. The
Mayor then placed himself under the protection Of
the Vigilance Committee, and when the Recorders
continued to swear in special policemen, heremoved
them. But later in the day, he was himself i'm
peached by the Common Council and the President
of tie Board of Aldermen appointed in bis stead.
AT the same time new Chief of Police was sworn
in. An attack was made upon the Vigilance Com.
nittee on Saturday night, but the only lives lost
were by accident 1t now looks as if tho worst Of
the thing were to come.

The stuggle and the Victory,

Johnny,' said farmer to bis little boy,
it is time for you to go to the pasture and
drive home the cattle
Johnny was playing ball, and the pas
ture was a long way off; but be was accus.
toned to obey, SO off be started without a
word. as fast as his legs could carry him.
Being in great hurry to get back to
play, be only half let down the bars, and
then hurried the cattle through, and one
6ue COW, trying to crowd over, stumbled
and fell with her leg broken.
Johnny stood by the suffering creature
and thought to himself, Now, what shall
| do? That was the finest COW father had,
and it will have to be killed, and it will
be a great loss to father. What shall l
tell himT
Tell him. whispered the tempter-the
same tempter who puts wicked thoughts
into all our hearts, tell him you found the
bars half down, and the creature lying
here NO, I cant say that said johnny,
for that would be lie.'
Tell him. whispered the tempter again,
that while you were driving the COWS, that
big boy of farmer Browns threw a stone,
and hurried that COW SO that she FELL"
NO, no. said Johnny; i never told a
lie, and I won't begin now. III tell faith
or the truth. It was all my fault. / was
in a hurry, and frightened the poor crea,
ture, and she fell and broke her leg
So, having taken this right and brave
resolve, Johnny ran home as if he was
afraid the tempter would catch him, and
be went straight to bis father and told him
the whole truth. And what did bis faith
er do? He laid his hand on Johnny's
head and said, MY son, my dear son,
would rather lose every COW own than
that my boy should tell me an untruth.'
And Johnny, though very sorry for the
mischief he had done, was much happier
than if he had told lie to screen himself,
even if he had never been found out.

The Testimony Of the Rocks ,

/ Late trayellen amid the rocky bolitudel
af Asia's deserts have brought accounts oI
strange frsgmentary inscriptions upon the
rggid heights Of Sinia. They asserted
that thousands Of inscriptions bad been
found, aud that many Of them were made
upon spots reached only Hitb the utmost
difficulty, showing that whoever made them
must have the help Of ladders and plat
forms and have made long steps 10 the
desert. -
Some English travellers who penetrated
to that lone and dreary region, copied
number Of these inscriptions and brought
them home. But it was in vain that az.
tempts were made to decipher them all
was darkness with regard to them. The
tribes IN the neighborhOok Of Sinai could
gi'e no account Of them.
At lenght after a good deal ofstudy aud
research, some learned and shreWd men
have succeeded in making a key out Of
several different and very Old laOguages.
aud with this key they once more sssayed
to read "the testimony of the rocks"
With sstcnishment, awe and delight,
they read as follows:
"The hard rock wster-a great miracle"
'.The people, the bsrd-stone satiates
with water, thirstiDg."
"Destroy, sptinging on the people, the
fiery serpents. Kissing, injection venom,
heralds OF death, they kill. The people
prostrating on their back. curling in folds,
they wind round, descending on, bearing
destruction"
"The people sustain on a pole, erecting
a standard, the male. serpent fiery Of moi
ten BRASS"
Very disconnected are the sentences,
but let any one compare them with the sa.
cred scriptures, particularly with the XXI
of Numbers and see if be does not think
hose hoary rocks, silent for ages, are now
'peaking efectually in the ears Of men Of
.be truth Of the Bible record.
God is, indeed, able 10 raise up from the
very stones witnesses to the truth of all
hat bis written word has told us. While
he infdel derides The sacred volume, the
believer clasps it firmsr, and frmer, for he
Knows that its words are truth and life,
