his men were dreadfully cut up, succeeded IN lore
inc the Bcen Gate and in establishing himself
firmly within the city. After the surrender of the
city, General SCOTT Immediately honored General
QUTTMAN with the appointment of military Gov
ernor His manly and dgnifed bearing won the
appreciation of both friends and enemies, and his
plan of administration is said to have been admira-
BILE. In November, General QUITMAN obtained
leave of absence for the purpose OF revslting lhe
UNITED STATES, and on the eve of his departure he
was waited upon by the officers OF his aiViSion'
who expressed their profound regret at the separ'
ton. but declared themselves ready on any future
occasion to be commanded by one whom they re-
rarded rs n father and friend. On reaching
home new honors awaited him. The citizens Of

sequent political career Of General QUrTMAN,
may be briefly stated. In 1913, and again in
1852, he was prominent candidate for the Vice
Presidency of the UNITED STATES In 1853 lie was
elected to Congress by a majority of more than
two thousand votes, and at the close of the long
struggle for the speakership was chosen Chairman
of the Committee on Military Affairs. The dutie;
of that important position, General QulTMAN dis
charged with distinguished ability. Of his ultrf
Southern views we have already spoken. Extreme
as they were, no one doubted the sincerity of hi
convictions questioned the reality of the earnest
ness with which he Supported them. But if hi
was sturdy in the defense of his own opinions, HI
respected those of Others, and hence it was tina

found in the ranks of his political opposites. II

by those who knew him best, for they alone coul(

high toned sense of honor, and his many nobl

TUESDAY, JULY 20, 1853.

Uonuhlished in our issue of yesterday ana we
confess with great regret report of the proceed
ncs of public meeting, held on Saturday last
At Cbestcrtown, f. S. Maryland, where the vio-
cnce recently offered by mob to citizen OF Kent
County, because of his imputed tampering with
the slave population, was canvassed and ap-
proyed. Some of the gentlemen by whom the
meeting was addressed are so well known to us,
and have so long enjoyed and deserved the respect
of the community, that we would fam ascrlbe 10
the imperfect opportunities of the reporter, those
portions of their remarks which it would pam us
to believe authentic The guilt or innocence Oh 'e
party who was lynched and driven away ny 'iie
mob referred to, we do not propose to discuss
Concedino the truth of the charge against nm, 10
;ts fullest extent his crime was one which the en-
;stino laws Of the State unquestionably define and
cover and which might have been duly and con-
d;cnIv nunished by the ordinary tribunals of JUS
t;ce 10 those tribunals and to them only, was
he properly responsible, and his violent arrest,
maltreatment and expulsion were an outrage upon
thel law and the community, for which the respecta-
biy of its perpetrators cannot atone, and which no
advocacy, however distinguished, can Justify or
yindicate Theinstitution of slavery and the rights
of the citizen in view of it. are assuredy sacred,
under our laws and constitution. Against any and
every encroachment upon them, we would set
the whole machinery of justice in motion. But
there are other rights just sacred and just as
fully entitled to be indicated, and prominent
among these is the right of every citizen to trial
by his peers and by the law of the land. Indeed
the majesty of the law itself is above all rights be-
cause all rights arc dependent upon it, and to in
suit it. or overpower it by violence in the supposed
defence of any interest is to tread under foot every
guaranty of social order and political security.
1t is because of all this that we are greved to lind
gentlemen whom we respect, endeavoring directly
or indirectly 10 justify such utterly indetenslble
proceedings For those who engaged in them, the
excitement of the moment may he some palliation,
but for their deliberate apoogists there can be no
excuse With what face can we denounce the
eshigher law of Northern fanatcism, if in the
slaye-StateS, we have no reverence whatever for
the sanctity of law ourselves? We bring discreGit
upon our character as a people, and upon our IN
situations of all sorts, by descending to such level.
If our laws SUFFICE let us administer them. Ifthey
do not, let us amend them or make new ones But
let us remember that in law only is there right or
liberty, and that if we place the irebrand in the
hands of mob, to-day, to consume our enemies,
we shall have reason to be surprised if it kindle
our own households into conflagration tomorrow.
There is no alternative-no medum-between law
and licence. The one or the other will rule alto
gether and the rule of licence is ruin.

IMPORTANT FROM NORTHERN MEMO


The New Orleans papers contain details of the
rews by the steamer General Rusk, from BraZos
Santiago
The advices from Monterey state that portion of
the liberal army under Degollado and Blanco at
tackled Guadalajara, carrying all the outworks and
driving the enemy to the main plaza, which was to
have been stormed on the 18th inst. Miramon had
left San Luis at the head of four thousand men, to
aid the besieged, and Zuazua was closely following
in his rear with heavy force of rifles.
1t was rumored that Moreno commandant at
Tampco, had been reduced to the necessity Of max
ing peace overtures to Caravajal, who answered
that he could listen to terms which did not re-
cognise the existing authorities.
Nidaurri was iii bad health, but in excellent spir-
its and sanguine of success. 1t was rumored that
propositions of reconciliation had been made to
him by the centralists but that he refused to en-
terrain them unless they acknowledged the supre-
macy of the constitutional government.
The correspondent of the Brownsville Flag at
Rowa says that the Indians had made descent on
the Guara silver mines, recently opened by the Amer
lean Company taking all the property of any val
ne that they could lay their hands on.

A correspondent of the New York Journal of
Commerce, writing from st. PauPs de Loande, West
Coast of Africa, gives the annexed description of
negro market fair
There twopublic market squares, where from
daylight to set of sun, hundreds of negroes do
gregate, and grouped beneath the burning sun, or
under shed of tented mats, the vendors of
every variety of fruit and vegetables corn, farina,
baskets mats nuts cloths in great variety of gaudy
patterns and some, with fires beneath kettles, are
cooking fish and iarina, on which the others live.
1t is a curious and unique scene-that picturesque
market fair of Africa. As you approach it there
comes upon the ear sound of many waters,
gradually melting into the rapid articulations of
language, a language like iargon, tongue that
hath no cessation, accompanied with violent and
yet often graceful gestculation, as buying and sell
ing progresses.
Around their baskets of fruit, vegetables, &C.,
the women are seated, smoking large pipes, when
their tongues give rest, weaving thread on spOols
from the rough cottons nursing the little blacks
who carried on the back, or scolding other ur-
chins for their mischief. Servants are here and
there bearing away on their heads nicely balanced
baskets of produce for home consumption, and the
intermXture of foreigners and sailors gives strange
contrast to the almost naked costumes ofthe natives
of whom the men simply cloth about the
loins hanging to the knee or below, their black
busts shining in the sun, and their heads generally
not seen protected by the wool, which they shave
quite close the women wear more graceful gar
ments, a long cloth of fancy coors wrapped around
them from below the arms downwards, and
a mantle of square cloth over the back and
shoulders often drawn over one only like a Roman
toga, or the head like hood, and this mantle
for the Loando women IS always black, making
them look like so many nuns, but for their black
faces and blacker and more filthy habits. The wo-
men carry their babies their backs, little shining
picanninies sticking their snowballs out of the
cloth that binds them, dangling their poor heads
fast asleep, the boiling blazing on them. 1t is
well they have cocoa-nuts, not skulls (?) A novel
sight to the stranger is the daily entrance to town
OF negroes from the country with produce. They
travel, hundreds of miles in the interior, perhaps
fifty or sixty in train, always marching in single
file, one directly after the other, carrying on their
heads long and narrow basket, like cradle, fas-
tened long poles, by which, when tired they rest
their load standing it on end. They bring in ivory,
wax, gum, and the general produce of the country,
all of which is in this way brought to Market
Filling up their baskets with city purchases cloths
&c and take their long journeys back again to their
native wilds.

CANTo I.
Miss Flora McFlimsey of Madison Square,
A lady of fashion, of wealth and of beauty,
Spent money like water for stuff for the hair
And did it because she thought it a duty
To paint the fine y-tO perfume the rose
To gild refined gold-though few would suppose
Miss Flora McFmsey. with beauty rare,
Required aught to make her more charmingy fair.

Miss Flora had heard of a noted Professor,
Who dressed his own hair tho not Hairdresser,
With magical, wonderful, great PREPARATION
Now used in vast quantities over the nation.
This noted Professor grey as 4 rat
At juvenile thirty-no older than that
And the amount of poor hair his crown had upon it,
Though as black ravens wing,
With lustre enough for a ball room kng.)

and dry character, by any shiOnis however bald she
might have been, who e'er wore bonnet.

A CROOKED STREAM.-Speaking ofthe Rio Grande,
a writer says:
Imagine one of the crookedest things in the world,
then imagine one twice crooked, and imagine to
yourself large river three times crooked as all
these put together, and you have faint idea of the
crooked disposition of this crooked river There is
no drift wood in it, from the fact that it is crook
ed that timber cannot find its way down far enough
to lodge two sticks together; but few snakes, be
cause it is not straight enough to swim in; and the
fish all in whrlpoos in the bends, because they
cannot find their way out. Birds frequently at
tempt to fly the river but light the same
side they started from being deceived by the creek
Indeed, you may be deceived when you think you
see across it; and some of the bhoys say it is so
twisting there is but one side to it.
