New York, Oct. 20.-An interesting suit
has been commenced in the Supreme Court
by Mr. Calvin Lewis Robinson, against Mr..
Etheldred Woodward. Both parties, at the
outbreak Of the war, were residents Of jack
sonviIle, Florida. Plaintiff claims that in
March, 1862, the defendant headed a gang
who burned up large quantity of property
belonging to him, and now sues to recover
its value. Woodward was arrested in the
city, and held in $1,000 bail. A melton is
now made to vacate the order of arrest. The
case will be argued next Thursday, before

conduct to Canada for Gen. O'Neil and Col.
Starr, to testify that Col. Lynch was not pre-
sent at the fight at Ridgeway or Fort Erie.
The Judge stated they would be liable to ar
rest. A New York lawyer has proposed to
defend the Fenians if permitted to plead in
a Canadian court, but was informed that it
was against their laws to allow a foreigner
to plead in their courts.

WAsHNoToN, Oct 19.-The following
communication has Just been received at the
State Department:
CONSULATE OFTHE UNITED STATES, quay
A8IAss Sept II, 1856 have the hon
or to inform you that the evacution Of this
port and State Of Sonora BY the French
squadron and land forces will take place on
the 14th inst. l have been officially in
formed Of this fact by the Admiral in COM
mand. The preparations for embarkation,
which have been going or Tor few days,
and the fact Of the withdrawal Of these
forces, have created panic among the popu-
ulation, both native and foreign and in
consequence the steamer Which leaves on
the 18th for Mazatlzn and San Francisco
viii be crowded beyond her capacity. The
French portion Of the community, and
Mexicans who have been compromised, or
who have given support to the empire, are
making every exertion to escape the almost
certain retrbution which awaits them at the
hands Of the incoming Liberals.
Merchants and respectable families not
compromised in these political difficulties,
apprehending danger from the lower classes
during the interim Of The withdrawal Of the
French and the entering Of the Liberal forces,
have sought the protection of the Consulate.
As no one here appeared to be able to sug-
gest or move in plan to protect the place
from rapine and murder, / informed the
Admiral and the commander Of the place
that would communicate the fact and the
time Of the withdrawal Of the troops to
Governor PERGUIRA, chiefof the Liberal for
ces Of the State, in order that he might be
ready TO take possession Immediately, and
thereby guarantee order and security. With
the approval Of these officers, have de-
patched a messenger to Gov. PERGUIRA with
the information and with an appeal to his
generosity in behalf Of those who are threat
ened with ruin, and who are now preparing
to fee the country. trust his answer viii
be conciliatory and humane.
The knowledge Of the fact of nay having
communicated with PERQUIRA has restored
quiet to the place, and many hope yet to be
able to remain in their homes. The steamer
for San Francisco will leave ON the 18th,
when may be able to report the city quiet,
and again in the possession of the officers of
the Constitutional Government.

your obedient servant,

consider it my duty to advise
the Government that person named Mil
Lam, native of Chill, resident in Lima,
has departed for the United States with the
object Of contracting for 1000 families Of
negroes for this country. The intention Of
the party or parties interested, is to give .he
speculation the colOring of free colonization
in that co1ntry; but here the negroes are to
be sold in the same manner as the Chinese
Coolies, for a term of eight years, for the
sum Of 1915 each, under tie pretext Of re-
munerating the Spectator for the passage
and advance money. The negroes are to
derive during the eight years, twenty-eight
cents in Bolivar currency daily, equal to thir-
ty-three and half per cent. less in hard
money.
There is no necessity for me to depict the
horrible cruelties and suffering and ill-ireat-
ment inflicted upon the Chinese laborers,
and which would be the fate of the deluded
people brought here under these contracts.
If permitted to be carried ont by your Gov
eminent, l will only add that the greater
part of the negroes are already contracted to
planters on the terms mentioned. ! leave
the matter TO your better judgment and de-
cision, and remain etc, etc.

NEW York, Oct, 20.-The Herald's Wash
idgton special says the contest over the
Baltimore Police Commissioners is exciting
much interest here in view of the probabili-
ty that the President may be called upon by
the Governor to interfere. Gov. Swami
will probably remove the Commissioners, as
he sympathizes strongly with the element
seeking their removal. The Commissioners
will resist the Governors action, on the
ground that they cannot be removed, except
by regular trial and conviction, and they
will undoubtedly assert their position by the
force under their control.
The offence Of the Commissioners seems
to be that they appoint judges Of elections
who enforce the registration law so stringent
w that returned rebels and Southern sympa-
thizers cannot register themselves without
committing perjury.
There are quite a number Of gentlemen
who are urging parties in high places to
make personal demand on the British
