THE MORNING NEWS, BY JOHN itt. COOPER. WILLIAM T. THOMPSON, EDITOR. terms: Doily Paper, 84,00::;:: Tri-weekly $2 00 All new Advertisements appear in bath paper). Correspondence of the Daily Morning Newt. New York. May 31, 1850. It has leaked out that one of the Beaches, of the Sun, (Mosca Y., probably,) has been eeveral times be fore the Grand Jury, and will, probably, be indicted for his participation in the late Cuba ‘wild goose chase.' The tone of the paper has changrd very much, and the Editor has now discovered that Lopez really did arrive at Savannah. A colored • confidence man’ practiced a successful trick yesterday on a horse-dealer named Smith. This class are generally pretty ‘cute,’ but the nigger was. too much for him. Smith was driving a pretty span through the street, when the ‘darkle,’ a bit of a swell in bis way, accosted him, and stated that it was just such a team as he was commissioned to buy for Sher wood Si Fisher, tho celebrated re'staraut keepers in Broadway. Smith was, of course, glad to hear of a purchaser, and invited him into the wagon, and drove to their place of business, where the nigger entered, but soon came out again, saying that he bad a bill to pay, and was short $2. Smith quite unsuspectingly lent him the money. The next time he api>eared, he said that Mr. Sherwood wanted to see him, and offer ed to take care of the team in the meantime; but im mediately the other disappeared, the negro jumppd into the wagon and drove off". Smith began to smell a rat almost as soon as he entered the place, and very soon discovered that he had been * done,’ and giving notice to the police, the fellow was arrested in a few hours afterwards, having a flashy ‘yallcrgal’ in the wagon with him. Poor Smith looked very sheepish about the affair, and was ashamed that a ‘colored pusson' should have victimized him. It is strange, that notwithstanding all the exposures and cautions of the press, mock auctioneers still find victims; a fellow in Broadway has, within two days, succeeded in robbing two Individuals of about 8300 or 8400. by tho old process of misrepresentation, or deceiving the parties as to the quantity they were pur chasing. One old man from the country, complained this morning that he bought a lot of articles for 870, which ho afterwards found were not worth $20, and when he complained, the auctioneer offered to put them up Bgsin; but he neither did that or returned the money. In this case, an officer was sent to the place, and by threats of punishment, succeeded in making the fellow disgorgo the whole amount. These affairs are generally conducted so as to avoid the law, but if there be a chance of touching the fellows, they seldom Earthquake. Tho Allgcmeine Zeitung states that tho greatest consternation prevailed in the city of Smyrna, incon sequence of continuous shocks of earthquake.—Thou sands of persons have fled from their homes, and were lodged in the oppn air, notwithstanding the in clemency ol the weather, and others had taken re fuge in the vessels lying in the harbor. , . The Greek Church, the American College, the Aus trian Consulate, und several mosques were greatly in jured, and part of the city has been thrown down ; a large rocky mountain, about four miles from the city ■has been rent; huge masses of rock have been illi- lodged, and iu its full has hurled down trees that have stood for centuries, and overwhelmed a part ot the 'Fhe river has been forced from its channel, and the water suddenly became brackish. All the hills sur- routidlng the harhor are full of fissures, i rnyers to Almighty God to arrest further evil are being put up in anthe churches. , . ,, It appears that the earthquai e has traversed the whole of tho Archipelago, and may be traced to the Uttermost boundaries of Caraniama. The steamship Asia. The European Times pronounces the Asia the fin est specimen of an ocean-going vessel ever launched. “Her length over all is about 300 feet, and she will measure no less than 2250 tons. Her paddle-wheels are 38 feet diameter, moved by two magnificent en gines of 800 horse power (150 liotse power more than the Europe.) They are supplied by four enormous boilers, whicii can lio worked together or separately. The general arrangements of the cabins and births are somewhat similar to the previous vessels of this line. The accommodation, however, is altogether upon a lurger, airier, and statelier scale. The main saloon is a noble apartment, having about seven feet six inches of head room. Besides this main saloon there are two roomy gentlemen's cabins, aud a ladies’or cabin drawing room. There is ac commodation for nbout 140 first-class passengers for whose use, comfort aud luxury, there is a well select ed library, with newspapers nnd periodicals, a smok ing room, surgeon’s room, icehouse, cowhouse, car penter’s room, bakehouse, cookhouse, (sixteen feet square.)’’ Collection for the Nntlonnl Monument.

The British steamer America hns arrived at Halifax, with dates to the 25th ult., from Liverpool. The Cot ton market is firm, and the prices are the same as when the etenmer Asia left. Fair Orleans are quoted at 7J. The sules of the week amount to 32,000 bales.

This afternoon, at half-past 3 o'clock, the new steamer leaac Scott, will be launched from the Ship yard of Messrs. Jones A Papot, the builders of the boat. She will tuke the place of the steamer Robert Collins, and will bo commanded by Capt. Tay lor. She is intended for the Oemulgee trade, and is owned by Messrs. Brioham, Kelly Sc Co., of this city.

The 'Torpedo affair’ is again beforo the public, nnd an attempt has been made during the week to fix the crime of making it on ‘One-eyed Thompson,’ but I think it will fail. The seizure of the brig Ksto Boyd, yesterday, caus ed some excitement. She was evidently intended for Hayti, but the Expedition of which aha formed a part, may have been connected in aome way with the Cu ban affair. The arms and Htuunition wero to have gone on board to-day. She was freighted for Port au Prince. Another vessel is closely watched, but lias notyetbeen seized, and it may not become necessary to do so. The fulfilment of a prophecy is now watched with some curiosity. It seems that an old lady predicted that if it rained on Ascension Day, It would rain for forty days afterwards. This day occurred on the 8th of May. and strange to say, it has rained more or less every day since. The old lady says this never fails to be the case. The Democrats are trying to effect a compromise, and heal their differences. A convention has assem bled at Tammany two evenings—the first one nearly broke up In a general row, hut last night they organ ized and appointed a committee to draft an address and resolutions. The notorious Ryndera is among them, and they must succumb tu him so long as they tolerate his presence. The extraordinary passago of tho Asia (under ten dnys to Boston) has created no little conversation, and it is supposed that the machinists here must go to work aud prepare for another ateamer to heather. The Asia is the u ndisputed champion of the seas. The truth may as well be told flret as last—we caiiuot com pete with Scotchman in the manufacture of machine ry—hut it is a curious fact that with the same mate rial and tlie same workmen here, we could not turn out such machinery. There is no mistake about this. But the cause is as yet little more than speculation. The arrivals at this port lust week numbered 14,489 —think of that. There docs not appear to have been Dtucli sickness, but 23 cases of cholern (fatal) occurr ed on board the Yorkshire. She will of course be kept for some time at the quurant'ne. We have had quite aiarge importation of die swell mob from Lon don lately, but the*' were described to the police from the other side, end many of diem are nbw in the Tombs. 340 prisoners are now confined there, which is a larger number Uian it has contained for some time past. Paez, |the Venezuelan General, is expected here this week, and preparations are progressing to receive him with all the honors. The return trip of the Atlantic, now two days out, begins to cause speculation; confidence in her speed, however, seems to have decreased. The accident on her outward passage is attributed to her having been taxed beyond her power, and many think great care fulness will be exercised on the return trip. Thirteen, fourteen and fifteen days are named. CHARLEMAC. Sugar Drainage Cate. The U. 9. Supreme Court that, oil Wednesday last gave a decision in favor of T. VV. Brune, et at., meicliaota of Baltimore, in the important revenue case before them, which involv ed the construction of the provisions of the present tariff relating to duties on sugars imported into the United States. The decision of these cases deter mines a controversy which bus been for some time pending between the sugar importers and the govern ment, arising from the tHCt that sugars from the West ludies almost invariably suffer groat diminution in quantity*» from drainage, during the .voyage ot im portation, by menus ot which the actual weight, at the time ol entry at the custom house, falls short of the invoice weight, on the average, five per cent. The importers cluim chat, in consequence ot this diminu tion, the duty should be levied by the custom house officers, not otf the weight as stated in the invoice, nnd which represents the quantity shipped, but on the actual weight of the sugar at the time it reaches the port of entry. The Secretary of the Treasury, on the contrary, insisted that under the provisions of the tariff', which requires the duty to be assessed invariably, and in all cases, upon an amount equal to the invoice value, sugars thus imported should pay duty according to the weight specified in the invoice, without regard to the fact that for every hundred pounds of auger upon which duty is paid, only ninety-five have really en tered the country. A similar cose, that of Messrs. S-outhmayd, of New York, was decided at the same time, in which the re duction in the weight caused by drainage was over JO,000 pounds. It was intended to test the question; and, os large and numerous claims are held to abide its re'sulst, the decision of the Supreme Court is look ed for with great interest by the pnrties concerned. An Abolition “Miiaa.” The Boston Mail states that Abby Folsom, was for ciblyand ignominious ly dragged from the Abolition meeting at Cochituafe Hall, on Monday evening, and ta ken to tho police office, where, after a brief duress, she was liberated by the Capta n of the night police. The outrage was committed, it is said, at the instigation of the Garrison clique, for whom Abby has labored so long and so effectually. The papers which belong to Abby's party are making a terrible cackling ovor the affair. Horace Greeley’s Veracity. It will be remembered by our readers that the Tri bune denied having published the Swisshelm letter against Mr. Webster's private character. We stated at the time that we could not fully credit the denial of the editor. We find tile following paragraph in reference to the matter in the Baltimore riun ; Mre. Swisehelm —The filthy slander of Mrs. Swiz zle-’ein upon Mr Webster did appear in the evening edition of tho New York Tribune, but was suppressed in the regulur morning issue. The presumption is then, that it slipped in without scrutiny on the arrival of the mail. Those who choose to do so, may give Mr. Greeley the benefit of the presumption. For our own part, we do not consider him entitled to it. We have Been so many “ slips" of this kind in the Tribune, that we have long since ceased to believe the assertions of its Editor, unless supported by corroborative testimony. Singular Trance.—At the village of Farrington, (Eng.) situated about nine miles from Bristol, on the road to Wells, a young woman named Ann Cromer, the daughter of a master mason, now lies in a com plete state of catalepsy, in which extraordinary trance- like condition, should she survive till next November, she will have been for no less than 13 years. During the whole of this extended period she has not par taken of any solid food, and the vital principle has on ly been sustained by the mechauical administration of fluids. Although reduced almost to a perfect skele ton, her countenance bears a very placid expression. Her respiration is perceptible, her hands warm, nnd she has some in iication of existent consciousness. Upon one occasion, when asked if suffering from pain to squeeze the handa of her mother, placed inheis for that purpose, a sligilt pressure, the mother avers, wns plainly distinguishable; and frequency when suffering from crump, she has been heard to make slight moans. About sixteen weeks after tlie commencement of her trance she was seized with the lockjaw, which occasions greut difficulty in affording her nourishment. The unlortunate young woinau is 25 years of age, and has been visited by a great num ber of medical gentlemen, who, however, hold out no hopes of her ultimate recovery.

England and France—Another Insurrection Ex pected.—'The latest news from Paris, by telegraph to Liverpool, received by the Asia, says. “The order for foe recall of foe French envoy was issued in the absence of foe President, and without his knowledge or consent. He had left for Fountain- hlenu. Before he went a general question hnd been put to him, whether he would not recall Drouyn de Lhuon, in case Lord Palmerston-hould offer -ome in sult to Fr.utdt. Tim President, of course, generally re plied in foe affirmative. During his absence the Min isters assembled, and then, in company with a non-of ficial personage, the letter of recall was concocted. The President, on his return, heard of it with deep emotion. The Nationnle says the rupture can lead to no serious consequence. The first object of tlie re call is foe revenge of the Orleanist party again.-t Lord Palmerston, nnd foe second to take France from tho only constitutional power of Europe, and to throw her on font of Russia A11 the opposition papers, without exception, speak to the same effect. The Press, in particular, upholds the English Allialnce.ac- knowledging that hut for Englnnd there would have been an invasion of Fr. ucc immediately after Februa ry. 1848. “The Courier Franeais pretends font a plan of a general insurrection has been settled to break out on the passion of the electoral law. This paper passes for being the organ of the commander of the forces." During the excitement at Havana, occasioned by the landing of Lopez many instances of patriotism are said to have occurred among foe old Spaniards in Havana. One of them, who keeps a small tieuda, or drinking shop, near tho mole, is reported to have pluced $200,000 at the disposal of foe Captain General; and another, a rich merchnnt, reputed to be woith half a million, ottered his casli box, and the services of seven hundred brave Biscayans. The first was immediately appointed a Captain, and the other a Colonel, in foe new militia regiment. i The Census Law for 1850. This iaw has been pub lished, and it is very comprehensive.

Revolting Disclosures as to a Burial Place. —Potter s Field, at New-York, whero are buried the poor paupers from abroad, and all who cannot afford to bury themselves, is become so disgusting and in tolerable a nuisance, font the Grand Jury have made it a subject of presentment—calling upon foe com mon council to atop further interments, as it ascertain ed the number of corpses are alrendy seven thousand to the acre ! Horrid. The Presentment says: “The thin soil is trenched for foe reception of foe dead, and tiei s of seven or eight coffins are piled one on another, up to nnd above the surrounding surface. Over the tops of these a little earth is thrown, hut s.i partially, that frequently tlie ends, and in some cases, foe tops of coffins are left exposed to view. It need hardly be added, that these inounda of putrefaction, sprpad out upon foe luce of a rock to tho action of the sun, infect the atmosphere with a pestilential ef fluvia highly injurious, not ouiy to tho fourteen hun dred persous in foe public in-titutious on foe Island, hut to tho surrounding neighborhood to a great dis tance.” A black l’rinin Donna, is the last new musical celebrity iu Parts.

Recently, at Liberty, Clay County, Mo., a Mrs. Colonel Allen, while sleep ing in her bed ot night, was struck across foe face with an axe, und dangerously but not fatally injured. One of-her negro women name Anice, confessed foe crime, and said that she had been instigated to it by another slave, a man named McClintock, who prom ised to help her, aid, with tlie moucy they wonld get, take het to California. After this coui'ession, a meet ing of the citizens of Liberty was held, und it was sol emnly resolved to bang Anice. 9he wns accordingly executed, and, afterwards, it was concluded font Mc Clintock should also be hung. This sentence was also carried out. jrjp’We find the following statement in tlie papers, respecting foe burning of foe Governor's house, at Cardenas; About sunrise, a torch was lighted by Gen. Lopez's own hands, against one of tlie doors of tlie Citadel, and soon the building below was in flames. We were shown a letter from a prominent Louisi anian to Gen. Lopez, and who waa of General L.’s party on foe occasion, in which foe writer remarks “the tiring of the building wus not by your orders." The letter was written on board the Isabel. without a lively symputliy for the people of that country. 9ituuted at a remote poiutof observation, foe course of events in France, since foe revolution of 1848, has presented u panorama, as it were, of the common growth of civil and social evil. We have been compelled to look on and see tile nefarious eys. torn of political intrigue by which power is ever steal ing from the many to the few ; and it will be strange indeed, if some of us do not speedily witness once more foe rough und unceremonious manner in which is sometimes recovered by foe many from the hands of the few who prostitute it in to their own selfish ends The government party appears to be impelled by an inexorable necessity to precipitate the monarchi cal elements to an issue, in advance of foe effect which ought first to be cleurly produced on foe pub lic mind, to ensure success. This necessity may be the means of developing to foe apprehension of the French people tlie stupendous fraud which the wily monarchists arc plotting and consummating; aud may serve to introduce a proper appreciation ot foe sain, tary axiom, that “ foe price of liberty is eternal vigi lance." Tlie most recent demonstration of the utter dis esteem into which republican principles have fallen ich the government party, is foe attempt to violate the suffrage. The very suggestion of this thing be trays foe corrupt design, and the audacity with which has been brought forward, develops the inordin ate appetite for foe imperial. If pressed by necessi ty thus to hasten foe ulterior purpose by which the President has been manifestly governed, he will be the victim of an unholy ambition; if he is forcing foe current of events that he maybe borne forward to the throne, impatient of delay, he will ho foe vie- m of consummate folly, in either case, we cannot believe that success awaits him ; for the action of foe people still exhibits a due sense of the value of the rights they have wrung from foe hand of oppression, and the language of calm aud intelligent decisiou yet prevails in their councils.—Baltimore Sun. Expenses of the French Departments.—Ac. cording to the ministerial budget for (851, as stated by the Paris correspondent of foe Journal of Commence, foe expenses of the War Department will be upwards of 307 millions of francs: the effective army to be 384,240 men, and 85,706 horses; of the Navy Deport ment, 107 millions,—with 125 armed vessels, namely 64 sailing, and 61 steamers ; foe ships in commission to be 31 sailing and 25 steamers; the number oi sail ors to be employed in the ports and roads tends, 22, 561.

Washington, May 30.—-The Spanish Minister has expressed his dissatisfaction at the refusal of foe Unit ed States authorities at Key West, to deliver up the money which foe pirates had taken. The Spanish Commander demanded the surrender to him of the Creole aud the money. He said there wus onboard sixty thousnud dollars, robbed from the Royal Treas ury of Spain. The ruply wus : “We huve no force aud foe invadera will not give up foe money.” The Spanish Admiral then offered to put himself, and his entire force, under the command of tlie civil aitthor- itiea ut Key Wesl, for tho purpose of taking the Cre ole and foe money. This wus declined. Themoney Will it is said, he restored by tlie U. S., to tlie Spanish Government.' It is well ktown that foe Buccaneers have in their pay many presses und contributors of the press.
