\V. A.T.rwm, K*q.-.—According to firotniw I
now nidn-eayou. 1 have orn tied writing you until
tho prtNWut from Ao other eatt«e than that I waa
anxiourvto form aotne aeqaaiounce with the min
eral and farming ronourcca and faciliiii** of ihi*
country. I urn red #t Han FrancUeo on the 27th
of March la-U It wax near three month# from the
timo I left CammingHll 1 reached California; and
to nay the of it.tny voyage wa* tediona and
▼ary disagreeable. The many hardnhipa 1 under
went, 1 will not attempt to enumerate —suffice it
U> aay, I would advise all who emigrate to this
country, to be certain they do not take passage on
a sail vessel. It was my great misfortune to be
plh'.'nd iu a position in which I was compelled to
embark on one of Ihui kind of craft, at the port of
bun Won del Setir, on the I'uciflc coast, in Central
A»i erica. 1 was in company with seventy others,
principally Georgians; vre: left this port on the
24th of Feb. last, on b >ard the brig Orleans, for
Fan Kmnasco; we had been at sea only a few
days, when we were ail, or nearly all, stricken
down by disease—no lc*n than &) of oar number
were pros)rated; some had the meazlea, some hud
diurrl oM, and others j'anarna !'cv.»r. The scene .
was frig tful and distressing—the lamentation* of
the s?ck and the groans of the dviug were to be
heard all round. It appeared un though death
himself ruled theseas, and to add to our extremi
lthe ve-scl had neither surgeon or medicines,
save u small quantity of calomel and quinine, of .
very inferior quality, Hit it so ha|»j>cned that J
hr. A. V. Howard, of Dahlonega, Ga., wa# ori
board, fa gentleman in whom 1 lake (pleasure in i
turning as one of the best of men, kind banned,
and eminently skilful! a-a physician,) on*., bav- .
mg a amull stock of medicines with him, he t *
to our relief and gave us much timely assistance. ,
We were, at the worst stage of our sickness
about Coo miles from the coa*t. in the eleventh de
grew of N. latitude, detained in a cairn, the aky ;
clear nod unclouded, arid not a single ripple to be !
► en playing upon the bosom of the mighty deep.
The soi wan smooth arid motionless; the vessel |
seem d lo stand as still as though it had been 1
trmsixed on land. The heat of the son was al
mas intolcraole. Everything looked as if death j
stoo lat the helm and commanded the ship. Yon j
must imagine to your own mind a picture of the
ac ne, I have merely drawn the skeleton, and leave
yon to till out the actual representation, from the j
taint glimmering* here attempted to be pencilled |
of the feelings, countenances arid lamentation* of
the fatal We were detained four days
in this miserable condition; in theeveniugef the |
fiurth day the winds came to our relief; a favor- j
able, healthy, and soul refreshing breeze sprang .
up, and we again had the unspeakable satisfaction
of seeing our sails full from trie top of the main
mast to the main deck. This was an hour of hap- I
pines* and great rejoicing. It was a welcome via- j
itor, bringing glad tidings and exceeding great joy. j
The reti»aiuder,of the voyage wua more pleasant, ;
Indeed, it was quite plea-ant, had tiicrc been no j
sickness on board. We had one gulo which was ,
alarming to the uninitiated, I have no desire to
witue-M another buclj. U continued during 48 j
hours, but no serious uiirhr*p occurred to the vea- |
sc I of any oriboUUl—We sailed near flvo thousand j
mile*; it mirpa.-sod anything 1 ever witnessed in
my life. There were 17 death* on board, two of
the unfortunate* were Duniel McCogmack and
Henry Hec-c, of Forsyth. L. J. Summerlin was j
committed to the hospital, on our arrival at Sau ;
Francisco rind died shortly afterward*. Hi* suffer- j
ifj.M wure almost unparalleled in the history of!
disease. On <ur arrival in the port of San Frirn
ei-co, i was more tiittn surprised on behohling the
natural and magnificent Huy, the vast umount of
shipping, and the young, yet beuutiful and flour
ishing city of Han Francisco. Alter rumbling
about in the city for two days I took passage up
tie Savramcnto river, to Sacramento City. This is
also a prosperous und flourishing city. 1 then
travelled up the great Sacramento vulley, which Is
the in >al beautiful 1 ever beheld. The valley is j
capacious and fertile. So far as 1 have examined j
the country I tlndi t divided into mountains and ;
vulleys. The mountains are numerous, high, and |
generally sterile, their cloud-capped summits he- !
ing enveloped in perpoiuul snow, inhabited by fe- 1
roc mis wild boosts. The great grislcy boar here j
finds his natural element, and roams pcacetully |
and uninterrupted over his native hills, as sole j
monarch. Tne valleys produce abundant crops of
barley, oats, and wheat. As regard# capacity and
adaptation ot the soil and cliinato for vegetable
productions, California is surpassed by no country
on the American continent. There is now us fine
and delicious Hour manufactured hero as in any of
thn Atlantia States. Corn does not grow well,
though some is cultivated; but barley is found to
be u purt culur suliatitute. I have explored thn
country from this county fEI Dorado,) us far north
us Strawberry valley, on Feather river; 1 found it
u most disagreeable enterprise. The county is, in
many places, motmtuinoiis, particularly on the
middle and north fork of the American river, and
on Unbar und Feather rivers. The mountain j
DGcnory I cannot describe, neither will 1 attempt
to do so. I capitally doubt whether the Alps
transcend it in beauty or sublimity. The dimate
ot California is mild und salubrious, though some
what peculiar in many respects. During themini
mor the days urn long and warm, und tho nights
qui'O cold. The same quantity of bedding is rc
qui*ite in nil seasons of the year. California is un
questionably a magnificent country, and would be
u very pleasant one to live in, if it were only fa
vored wiiu ram. She is now developing rapidly
her mineral and agricultural resources and capa
cities, and is udvaluing to a high state of oultivu
tion. Society is improving, population increas
ing, cliurolics arc being limit, schools organized,
and cities und towns and villages springing up all
over the State. As regards tho mineral resources
of tho eon try, I am at a loss to know what to say ;
I can only venture you un opinion founded on fucts
tlmt have occurred under my immediate obnerv#-
tion.|£,Tiiu lime ha* been that fortunes were easily
made; but those golden times have passed and
gone. Thcro arc n great many miners here; some
are doing well, and others arc doing nothing ut all.
Thera has been but little rain up to this writing,
and there is, therefore, a grout scarcity of water in
places where it is mo*t needed. Many of the mi
ner- arc resting on their oars, awaiting the com
mencement of the rainy season. Tho mining busi
ness is carried on scientifically, turning rivers, and
tunnelling mountains appear to bo nu ordinary
business. Water is carried in many parts of tho
country a d-stance of fifty miles, by muuns of ac
q mid nets, ditches, canals, Ate., and many are at
work in the dry diggings; but as a general rule
those helps do in t advance tho pecuniary interests '
of tho>c intended to ho none fitted thereby. Many (
are now paying from five to ten dollars per day for \
these water privileges. Canals, <fco., are very, pro- |
fiiablo to the stock holders. It is flio most prMlta- t
-■ llßrtirtGttWoTtlln tho ooimtry. Thcro is more or
less gold all over California. I have no doubt the •
business will be pursued advautagoouslv for con- ,
turics to come. Tho ruviue and gulch diggings ,
uru now much exhausted. Pitting is generally ,
deep, and require# much labor to roach “the dust.’’ j
With industry and economy, money can bo made ,
here. 1 cannot ml vise my friends to come to Cali- j
foruiu, unless they will do so with tho determina
tion to remain a number, at least tivo years. Those (
that cun content thotnsolvcs to remain hero this ,
length of time, consenting to livo destitute of all ,
the oomligrts und convenience# of chiliad life, and ,
in the meantime, will bo industrious and economi
cal, are sure of, if not a fortune, at least enough to ,
make them independent for tho balanco of their |
lives. Hut the present condition of tho country is
such that it requires a handsome iittlo fortune to
support a man in it for two years. San Francisco
is tho only port in the whole State, by which mer
chandise, provisions, Ac., can be successfully in
troduced into the country, and espboiully into min
ing regions. And this port is literally blockaded ,
by riel) capitalists, who monopolise tho entire
trade, and realize enormous profits.
At this place Hour is now worth 80 cts. per lb.;
salt pork. 80; fresh pork, 4'*; and other articles
of pr ovlslon* pro[>ort!on»lly dear.
Cl..tiling is cheap. Muring implement* sell high.
California is in some respects, an umlosirublc coun
try to live in. Everything appear* to be In the
hiuul* of speculator* uud extortioner*. There ia
plenty of provision* here, lint they are in the hands
of .peculator*, und tho miners are reduced to tho
necessity of purchasing thoir supplies front them,
or go to bod mums tlioir suppers. They must
either submit to these exactions, or starve; there
is tin other alternative. Capitalists uow control the
nt trite!*, mul time is lust approaching, when they
will own und control tho mines, also. They are
now cob-webbing the mining regions with uque
dnets cm.!*, <fcu. to supply tho dry diggings with
water and charge us they piece tor tho water pri
vileges tints furnished. They aro at liberty, and
excise it, to charge their otvn prieos. There aro
now supposed to ho not less than 75,000 foreigners,
prohibited from becoming citizens, engaged in
working the mines. They consist ot Chinese, 'tar
tars Hindoos, Chilians, Sorts and Coolies, tho do
graded slaves and abandoned outlaws und convict*
of foreign nations. They are driven from their
own country, and, when arrived in California,
bound to serve a number of ycurs, receiving only* ,
nominal compensation for their labor. They work
here under overseers and meroilcss task masters.
Tho Tartars are used by their ovorscors about hko
so many pack mules, bound to carry whatever bur
den is placed on them. These foreigners pay u tux
off? per month for tho liberty to dig gold. They ,
nro a great disadvantage to tho country ; they are
imported into U\o country by foreign capitalists.
It is reported here that there are 400 ships engaged
in tho business of importing these miserable be
ings into this State, who aro daily extracting from
tlie earth thousands of dollars worth ot tho precious
metal. They are of little advantage to tho mer
chant or provision seller; they can subsist and ,
work a week on a pound of rioo and a beef's hock.
The foreign question is now considerably agitat
ed ; conventions of miners have been held in sev
eral places, and resolutions, inhibiting to them, all I .
mining privileges whatever, have been passed, and i
pledges to enforce them to tho very letter. 1 long ;
to see the day arrive when every Tartar, tiiudoo, j
and Chil i vvill be expelled from the State, and !
no longer permitted to land ut our ports. The
time will seen come when they wilt he forced to i
leave, 1.0 government should tskc the matter in j
band, and adopt measures f.r their expulsion, and 1
keeping them out of the limits es the State. The !
mlmral mauroes es the country are of such a,
character as to justify the adoption of rigid laws
for their ; resoregion. As matters now stand, the :
people ot foreign countries are gathering more ;
treasure here than the people of the United States j
tile rightful and legitimate owners. The prescut
protective laws, as t hey are termed, are, 1 think, a
disadvantage; all claim A. right ofm.ning under
t.'.rlitr ; and all do work in the mines, and not one
out of tour ever pava one cent of the tax which ti e
law imposes. Matty of tbe statute laws here are
repulsive to common laws, and are a disgrace to
those who conceived, and helped to enact them, j
A man can hold here, under the homestead net,
I «*/» act thousand dollars trortk of property. Toll
| tax i*>w dollars. It ia mere nonsense to try to
i collect a just debt by law, unless the party owing
is disposed to pay- Since l oouimenecd writing,
the rain has began to fail. We have had a wet day,
and l hope l oouto be iu the dry diggings, when,
[ after 1 huddle together my " ptit," I shall >• ru
*- movse (As ranch*."
1 am your obedient servant,

Impartial from Mnles.
, ; The intelligence oommunieeteri by our telegraph
, ; ic despatches yesterday morning, is, ill tbe main, I
| confirmed be the paper* subsequently brought by
tbe mails.
i The most important uewa from the city of Mcxi-
I I ro relates to the Tehuantepec affair, which was de- I
I | cided, a* we intimated yesterday, in favor of tne i
‘ j Guanajuato c.m.pauy.
The Oqrlo Du-zy Nueva. ofthe lllh, says the ,
[report of toe Committee tavoring that company I
passed Congress the day previous, by a vote of 48 j
to 40.
| The Siglo of the 12th says:—Yesterday the 1
Chamber of Deputies , pproved tbe first article of j
| the retort of the Joint committee on Tehuaute- j
pec. The second article waa returned to the com- J
: tuittee.
The first article referred to approves the Guana- ;
juato p>ro|Kiaition. 'J he second article stipulate* , 1
tbe manner in which thn government will take j
j one-tnird of the stock. No other action liad been j 1
taken oil the question at the latest dates.
A ministerial chsis had occurred, and Don Ma- ,
riano Vartez resigned the [Kirttolio of Foreign As- ,
fairs. The Siglo says:
It ia generally believed that the resignation of j
Set,or Yanez will change the policy of tne govern- ,
ment on ttie 'fehuantejssc question.resuscitating the ,
lielange I,'ornpa-iy in the Spanish reclamations,
agreeing to all kinds of abuses, and also in other
affair*. The enemie*of.Senor Yanez have effected t
tiu> removal, Vs-ause hi* honesty *n.l patriotism t
presented an obstacle to their iniquitous and anti- '
national design*.
The parties mat the Siglo refers to, »sy» the N. 1
| 0. l’teat une, were endeavoring to have fcenor Ma- 1
j cedo named as minister, but the government offer- I 1
cd the portfolio to Senor Oliagttihel, who declined -
| it. VSenor Arriaga had accepted the .Secretaryship
; of.luso gnd Senor Bar was spoken of a* the
; M nis,or ot Foreigu Affairs, but no one bad been t
.anted.
I The advices in regard to the revolutionary move- .
ment ot Guanajiato are very meagre. A body of .
insurgents from Aguasealiente* had attacked Gu- ,
auiijuata. and Munoz Dado, the Governor, fled; ,
I hut tltey hul again retreated, it is ssid, after hav
, iug been attacked by General Camargo. The .
j Governor had returned, and the insurgents were
Preparing to attack the city again. Guanajuato had
I been declared in a stale of siege. j 1
A list of officers i* published by the government | f
a. having been dismissed from the army lor being i J
in arm* against the State. I s
The Count Kousset had capitulated with General ' a
i Blanco, Gut)annus, giving up his arms and being v
I secured in person and private property. One bun
-1 dred and eighty-two hrenchmen signed the treaty
of capitulation, and all tbe arms .were delivered to I
the Mexicans. The wounded were taken care of, I
i being placed in a lurge convent. The expedition 0
i vs* entirely dissolved, and the members of It went 1
to Mazatlau, where they arrived on the 15th of 1
, Xovembor.
j Judge Conkling had been formally presented to ’
j the President, to whom he delivered an autograph “
1 letter from Mr. Fillmore. ‘
The Siglo of the sth, says Hector C. Antos, V
'E* has been named Consul for the United Slates
lat Acapulco. The government ha 9 granted the
customary exequatur!
On the 4th of December an earthquake was felt
! iri tlie city of Mexico, and ulso iu Puebla and Jala
| pa. No damage of importance resulted.
I The Minister of War had sent a note to Capt.
! Horn, commanding tho two ship* which joined
the insurgents in MazntJan, that if he did not re-
I turn to his allegiance he would bo pursued bv the
! Jir.tish squadron in those waters, which had or
j dvrs from the British minister to treat him as a pi
| rate. The minister had authorised a denial of tnis
statement, adding that tlie British government
would not interfere iu tho internal questions of
&1> xico.
Theban Luis and Potosi papers contain an ad
vertisement signed by Henry May, offering a re
ward of |SOO to any one that will give exact infor
mation a* to the whereabouts of a silver mine in
Kio Verde owned by Dr. Gardiner, and |SOO more
to tiny otto that will show in the same districts
| q uicksilver mine pretended to he owned by Dr.
Sears.
i Tlie Federal Government had ordered a suspen
| pinn of the usual traffic-pormits for goods going to
| or from Tamaulipas, in cousquenoe es tho revolu
, tion there.
*till later.—tiik revolution in taiipico.
I’.ysti arrival at Now Orleans wo have received
Brownsville (Texas) dates from the 11th to tho
1 tali ult., inclusive. The news, though anticipa
ted briefly by telegraph, is highly interesting. The
people, dissutistted with Arista, Bre daily vuinino
strength, and tlie downfull of his administration
a, fins rapidly approaching.
We gather accounts of the progress ofthe revo
lution from the Brownsville Flag. That paper of
tho 11th has the following letter from ban Fer
nando, a town half way between Mutsmoras and
Victoria:
bAX Fernando, December 5, 1852.
Dear Friend: We have just received letters
fiom the city of Victoria, which announce to ns
tlmt after four days and nights’continual fighting,
Colonel Bavusalias capitulated, ami all tlie arms,
munitions, artillery, etc., etc., Itavo fallen into the
poser of tlie inviuciblo Hufluistas [partizana of
ihdlno Bodriguez. I
Don Jose Ma. Vuldezls now in this village. He
has intercepted two couriers with despacthes to
Gi n. Avalos, and 1 am informed that they contain
in otcr of grout importance.
I hasten to subscribe myself your affectionate
servunt and friend. N. do N.
To Sr. Don N. N., In Motumoras.
Then follow two addresses from Gen. Casanova,
who, it seems, uflcr the pronunciamento , hud been
culled to kho head of the liberating forces. This
(ten. Casahova aeoms to have been a Colonel in
the regular army, and by this uct has brought over
wi" It him a long list if other officers. 110 appeals
to tlie patriotism ofthe citizen soldierß in the usu
al bombastic style, and doubts not tbe success.—
These two documeuts bears dato of the 29th Nov.;
then follows tho plan marked out by tbe pronuu
cindoros. In this there are lew articles in addi
tion to that of Jalisco; nothing, however, ot much
importance, or by anj means of improvement.
The greatest enthusiasm, wavs tlie Flag, prevails
among tlie lovors of reform, who now look upon a
cliango of government as inevitable. When wilt
till- people of Mexico learn that progress and hap
piness lios not in tho road beset with such civil
commotions? It is to bo eamostly hoped that this
change, when effected, will bo more stable, and
that tlioso who now clamour no loudly of the vioi
liit "ii ot laws, will at least respect and obey those
which they tncinsolves may bo instrumental in
procuring.
'J lie nnti-revolutionists of the interior were in
gn at tear of tho “ Yankeos,” whom they consid
er in tbe secret of the insurgents. Wilnoss the
following from the Federalist*, of Querotaro, of
tin- 2l*t ultimo:
Tho revolution Is boginning to give its fruit*.
Two hundred Yankees have crossed tho Kio Bra
vo del Norte and overrun a considerable portion
ot countiy —penetrating near to the city of Victo
ria, from whence the Government troops have
bom foreod to retire to Tula; said troops boing al
ready occupied inarresting tlieudvaneeof anarchy,
they are unablo to march against tbe invaders,
wlci will, therefore, do according as they please,
thanks to the indirect protection which tlicy re
eeivo from tho revolutionists. Will tills bo the
only evil for which the revolution will bo roproach
ublo i Probably not.
To this u correspondent of the Flag replies, de
nying that tho Yaukeos have anything to do with
the affair. lie says:
“Not the footprint of a solitary Yaukoe can thus
far be traced iu the march of oitber ofthe contend
ing parties.”
Tho Flag of the 18tli has later and fuller intelli
gence from the State ofTamuulipas. We observed
from this tJiut our own dispatches yesterday led us
slightly into error. Curdinus is the deposed Go
vernor of Tamaulipas, and instead of capturiug
Avalos, as was reported, ho waa himself taken by
tlie insurgents. Gen. Avulos, it would seem, is
still at liberty. Wo copy from tbe Flag tlie follow
ing lucid statement ot the present aspect of tho
revolution:
“T te news from our neighbors of Mexico con
tinues every day to increase iu interest. We have,
through tlie courtesy of a friend, been shown let
ters and documents f'otn the city of Victoria, to
the 4th instant. Oovcrnor Cardinas lias been cap
tured iu Tula, together with some nine members
of tlie Legislature, his adherents. Au extra, issued
from the scut of the new government, announces
this happy event. We have before us a message
from tho provisional governor to the people, in
which he tells them their success has been most
complete. The entire State, with % few exceptions,
hove sent in their acquiescence to the provisional
government and tlie new plan— el plan Salvador
de (i uad.il. ijar a. Kuflno Rodrigues announces to
the p -ople the sauto happy result, lie says that,
after four days’ hard fighting, success huscorwttea
tho victorious banners oj'the invinciblepnmuncio
dores. Cardinas, had been taken prisoner to Tam
pico—lie was captured by a detachment ot Nation
al Guurda from tho latter place. Canales is still at
large, and report says at Lanares. A letter from
Rodrigues to a friend in this city, dated 14th in
stant, s*atcs that the war steamer Estado de Mexi
co, which recently left the Brazos with munitions
of war, cannon, etc., for Vera Cruz, haJ, together
with a national war schooner, also pronounced,
and were with the insurgents in Tampico. If this
be true, and our informant assures us it is, it gives
a death blow to the maritime force of the govern
ment in the Gulf; while on the I’acificail is said
to be lost also, as tho vessels sent to blockade Ma
zatlan have, it is said, joined the insurgents. The
overthrow of tho present government seems in
evitable. Matamoras, however, seems determined
to bold out to the last.
The commandant of that important post has
commenced to fortify aud barricade, preparatory
for a determined resistance. Our merchant* have
been supplying barrels, etc., for breastworks, and
to-day the sonorous tones of big mouthed cannon
announced to us of Brownsville, that all power in
that city hud passed from tho civil into the mili
tary arm of government. Matamoras bas been de
clared in n state of seige, though uo enemy in
sight, and martial law prevails in our sister city,
file nags of the different nations ore now floating
over their respective consulates; the broad ensign
of Mexioo this morning flutters iu tbe breeze as
proudly and defiant as ever—its rampant eagle
seems to grasp tbe serpent in its talons with even
i a firmer gripe, a* though determined to crush, not
| only that, hilt every outer one which present* tt
! self, hydra-headed as they at present are.
We have before ua three proclamations from
i Gen. Avalos to tbe troops under his command and
, tho people. He entreats them to remain true to the
Government in its hour of peril, and assures them
t here are yet strong arms aud stout hearts enough
| in the land to stem this great tide of insubordina-
I tion, gigantic as it is. We learn that the Mata
j moreuses think differently.
I Cuba.— The N. Y. Journal of Commerce, has an
! article on Cuba from which we quote the follow
ing :
| “It is notjenongh for ns that Cnbs is iu the possee
sion of a people who own it; that thev desire to
| continue its occupation without being ‘disturbed ;
; that its transfer to us would be the signal for ma
king tlie island too hot for its present occupants ;
j tint years of disturbance and distress would at
! tend the condition of change ; that tlie injustice
I practised upon them would be returned upon it*
I anthers ; that the acquisition ofthe island wonid
| immediately disturb tbe friendly relations ot this
country internally and externally;- these consider
ations are of no weight; Cuba will consolidate the
; institutions ol Slavery, and wc must have it! This
, is the mistaken ground on which Mr. Mason pro
ceed*. He does not express it, that is unnecessary
! Cuba lies farther from the point of Florida than
England does from France.
That point of Florid* is hundreds of miles from
the cultivable landsof the State. To say that we
I need Cuba for tbe protection of the' Southern
States, is saying that we need for the same pur- ]
j pose, the Bahamas, on which our vessels are driv- ,
cn in storms, though they are not on Cuba ; that t
we need Canada, which in parts command* tbe i
lakes and tlie St. Lawrence ; that we Deed Van- <
ocuver’s Island which is near to Oregon ; that we i
shall need Hayti and Jamaica, which are near to
Cuba; and that iudeed we shall roll dike a snow
' ball and take op every spot near to us, or which is .
| brought near in the process of aeqnisition. Our
' t rue policy, so fur as concerns onr preparations ‘
: for defence, is not to spread ourselves so that ev- :
1 cry spot shall be insecure and weak, bat to act |
j with honesty, to deal fairly with the nations of the
world. Our security lies here.”

Our Minister to Mexico. I
We translate from the Mexican papers the fol
lowing:—Pic.
Speech of Judge Conlcling, on being Pretented to Hu
PmidttU of Mexico.
Honor President: —On presenting to your Excel
lency, a* I have the honor to do, tny credentials as
representative of the United States accredited to
the Government of your Excellency, I refrain from
speaking of the sentiments entertained by the
President of the United States towards your Ex
cellency, and toward the people of this the great
est of oar sister Republics on this continent, be
cause Mr. Fillmore has wished to be his own expo
nent of those sentiments in the personal letter
which 1 have the honor to deliver.
Rut 1 avail myself with pride and pleasure of
this opportunity to recall to your Excellency the
love of justice, the moderation, and the scrupu
lous respect of the rights of other nations, that in
all our foreign relations, as also in his patriotic re
gard to the welfare of his country, in everything
concerning her domestic policy, have so honora
bly distinguished his Administration.
Your Excellency will not fail to perceive, in his
linn und constant udhesiou to these principles a
sure guarantee that in regard to the several points
which demand an arrangement between the two
Governments, there can be nothing in my instruc
tions obliging me to insist on anything which in
the judgment of my country is not unquestiona
bly just; aud, in regard to myself, I can assure
your Excellency that my desire as well as my duty
will keep mo within the limits I have mentioned.
If, as I have no reason to doubt, 1 should have
the good fortune to tind this Government anima
ted by similar soutimonte, 1 shall not despair to
sea a prompt and satisfactory arrangement of all
the differences between the two Governments, and
the foundations of peace aud friendship firmly es
tablished between the two nations.
When we shall hapily have attained that object
there will only remain to my countrymen an unre
served sympathy with the wise statesman and pat
riotic citizens ot'this republic, in their efforts to
consolidate by moans of wise luws and strict ad
ministration of justice, the blessings of liberty and
national weal, the day which 1 tiope wiil soon
come, your country shall have reached a degree of
prosperity and grandeur proportionate with its
geographical extent, its unequaled natural «!a
ments of wealth, the variety and salubrity of its
climate, and the all-surpaseing magnificence and
richness of its soil.
The President replied in the following terms :
Honor Minuter —l am happy to receive from
your Excellency the credentials" which constitute
you representative of the United States near the
Government of tho Mexican Republic, and the
privato letter of Ids Excellency Mr. Fillmore, Pre
hident of those States.
■ The sentiments of patriotism, moderation and
justice which animate his Excellency, and have
distinguished his administration with honor to his
country, aro weh known. In them and in tho per
sonal sentiments which your Excellency has ex
pressed, I do see a guarantee of a prompt and
happy arrangement of tho diverse affairs pending
between tho two countries, on tho basis of justice
and good faith. Tho Mexican Government, gui
ded always by the sentiments named, hoa insisted
on nothing not in conformity with them, and the
perfect agreement of tho two Governments in such
holy principles, will produce the consolidation of
the good relations that so happily exist between
the two countries.
Tho wish of the Mexican Republic and also my
own personal desire, is, that wo shall daily draw
more close those friendly and useful relations, and
I entertain tho most sincere desire for t,ie prosper
ty of the United States and its worthy President,
congratulating myself at the same time for the
wise soloctlon of your distinguished self, for tho
chargo of promoting these interests as Envoy Ex
traordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from
those States to this Republic.

later from Havana and Key West— Arrival of
the Isabel.
The U. S. mail steamship Isabel, Captain Wm.
Rollins, arrived at her wharfin this city, on Satur
day night, from Havana, via Key West. She left
the former port on tho morning and the latter on
the evening of the Buth ult.
Among tho list of consignees, wo observe the
names of W.S. & T. H. Roberts, Augusta, Ga.
We learn from tho letter of one of our Havana
correspondents, which will bo found below, as also
from other sources, that the small pox was raging
fearfully at Havana when the Isabel left.
We are indebted to our Havana contemporaries
und to Mr. Mahony, the obliging Purser of the Isa
bel, for their respective favors. We subjoin tho
letters of our attenlve correspondents :
Matanzas, Dee. 27, 1852.—Messrs. Editors—
Since our last circular of 27th ult., our market has
become almost bure of Sugars, und of new crop
onlv few boxes have as yet come to town.
The wcutlicr lias beeu" very changeable and those
estates that had commenced grinding have had to
stop repeatedly; the weather continuing good,
however, the grinding will in a few days be gen
eral.
Os new crop Molasses, two cargoes have been
dispatched, aud some few others are loading at
;i rls. The receipts aro yet very light.
Freights none, and some vessels have left for tho
Gulf ports.
Exchange on London 11 a ll)f per cent. prem.;
New York percent, discount.
Key West, Dee. 80, 1852.—Dear Sirs—l have
nothing of interest to communicate from our Uland
this trip.
Tho cargo of brig Fiorina, ofMaine, was rc-ship
ped per brig Harp, to Boston, which vessel left tbiß
port on the 28th inst.
Tho U. S. ship Cyane, Hollins Commander, ar
rived at this port on the 28d inst., left for Havana
oil the 25th—all well.
Thero aro at present no vessels in distress, or
wrecked at this port; business is consequently
very dull. %
Havana, Dec. 29.—Messrs. Editors—The manu- .
fncturers in this city have had almoet entirely to
suspend operations, in consequence of a great
many of their workmen being sick with the small
pox, which has been almost general both in the
city aud in tho vicinity.
Havana, Dec. 28.— Messrs. Editors—Since our
report of 18th inst., the business in Sugar has beeu
very small, as the stock is reduced to an extreme
ly insignificant quantity; the transactions which
took place, were at previous quotations. Wo hear
of some contracts for new Sugar at rls. for Cu
eurucho, 5 a 5,Y els. for Browns, G a for Y'el
-1 ,w, 8 a By* rls. for Whites. Until within a few
days the weather was rainy, which impeded grind
ing; but now it appears settled, and the generali
ty of estates aro likely soon to be in full operation.
On the wholo, wc cannot expect to aeo the new
crop at market earlier than usual.
Owing to the unfavorable weather, the supplies
of new Molasses have been scanty, and the few car
goes that have gone forward, were bought at s
(iV rls.
There has been very little done in Coffee since
our last report.
As wc are in the midst of the holidays, business
in general is interrupted, and this wiil be tho case
for a short time yet.
Freight*.—' The demand for vessels, at the mo
ment is, of course, but small, owing to the very
limited amount of produce in market. But as the
rates in Southern ports of the United States have
risen considerably, and seem likely to be main
tained at high figures, we may anticipate a scarcity
of shipping in our harbor, when the new cron
comes forward, and higher freights than usual.
Since our last advices some small vessels were ta
ken lor Cowes and Falmouth and a market, at 2 a
u}2 55., with immediate dispatch, and we under
eland £2 10s. is offered for Molasses to Liverpool.
There is scarcely any inquiry for the United
States.
Exchange on London per cent, premium;
New Y’ork and Boston par to per cent, dis
count.
Railroads in the Union. —The following state
ments we gather from the forthcoming January
copy of the American Railway Gaide:
On the first of January, 1858, there were in the
United States 18,227 miles of completed railroads,
12,928 miles of railroad in various stages of pro
gress, and about 7000 miles in the hands ot the
engineers, which will be bnilt within the next
three or four years—making a total of 88,155 miles
of railroad, which will soon traverse the country,
aud which at an average cost of SBO,OOO (a well ai
rortained average) for each mile of road, inclnding
equipments, etc., will have consumed a capttal
amounting to $994,650,000, as follows:
18,227 miles completed $896,810,000
12.928 miles in progress 887,840,000
i ,000 miles under survey 210,000,000
83,155 Total $994,650,000
Or in round numbers—#l,ooo,ooo,ooo—one bil
hou ot dolian. ueum which, at 6 per cent would
yield $60,000,000 annually, or more than sufficient
to cover all tho expenses of the United States Go
vernment and of the Governments of every State
composing the l nited States—ifadministered with
republican economy.
Real Estate in axd sbar New Yobx.— Dr

Telegraph, 4 th inst.
The Brachial Telegraph.—A pamphlet has jitst
been published in New York, written by Captain
R. \V . Jcnks, formerly ot Boston, describing a new
inven'ion for the use of mariners, called the “Bra
chial Telegraph”—an original method of conversing
and signalizing on land an I sea, by means oftlie
human arms, at any and all distance, even within
the farthest range of the telescope.
The New Y ork Herald says that among the mili
tary organizations in that city there are 4405 mea
composed exclusively of birth.
Among these 2685 are Irishmen, 1710 are Ger
mans, and one company of 60 men are Frenchmen.
Besides these there are several Irish and German
companies in Brooklyn. A very large proportion
of the regular U. 8. Army arc Irish and Germans.
Wind and Wave Propeller.—An ingenious
invention for tiie propalsion of vessels by wave
power, or through the rise nnd fall of tbe water, is
on exhibition at the Fair. The inventor is M. Lud
wig, of No. 400 Washington-street, Boston. The
peculiarity of the contrivance?consists in its easy
management in a high or regular sea and the ready
method by which sufficient power may be obtained
from it to propel any vessels atahigh rate of speed.
The power to be applied is found in tbe water itself
the machine being so calculated aa to meet the
slightest advantages and turn them to useful ac
lount. The inventor argues with plausibility that
the same power which so severely rocks ships of
three thousond tons may be applied to propel them
and has exemplified his theory very clearly in his
model of the wind and wave propeller America.—

Weekly Report Tueaday, P. M.
COTTON.—At the doee of our last weekly report the
market was at a stand—holders having withdrawn their
tlocks g-nerslly and buyers exhibiting little disposith n to
operate. After a day or two a better feeling was apparent
and as holders offered sparingly, a limited business was
done at rates corresponding with 9 1 * cents for Fair, with a
urv-.hially improving feeling. Yesterday the accounts by
t Pacific came to hand, quoting an £d advance in the
Liverpool market. This news has produced quite an im
proved feeling in our market to-d if, and as holders have
offered a little more freely in the face of a good demand,
a fair business has been done at an advance of X cent
upon previous prices. We quote Good Middling 9; Mid
dling Fair 9\ and Fair 9)4 cents, at which the market
closes firm.

Tne known healthiness of this town, its quiet character,
the absence of temptations to extravagance and riva'ry,

denominations, are considerations worthy of the attemion
of those who desire to afford their daughters a thorough
education , under such favorable auspices.
