The proceedings may be fotind in another column. . Immediately on the adjournment of the meeting Mayor Wayne telegraphed tho result to the Mayor of New Orleans. The hopo expressed by us on Tuesday morning last has been realized. This relief, in con nection with that so liberally and promptly contribu ted by other cities, we trust will prove timely.

In Valparaiso business is not brisk, this boing the dull season ; stocks are heavy end sales limited. From Peru the news ia interesting, affairs between that couutry and Bolivia are dally approaching a state of warfare, although no actual outbreak has yet taken place. Belzu has issued a decree, ordering preparations for war; declaring an absolute interdiction on all commercial trufilo between Peru and Rolivia; and ordered ail goods m transitu, between one country and the other, to bo seized. All citizens of Bolivia are prohibited passing out of their own territory. All indlvidnal or epistolary communication between the two republics is also stopped. A proclamation has boon issued by General Belzu, calling upon tho peoplo to prepare themselves for war, and 4e ready to take up arms when |neccssary. He assures them or his intention to resist every at tempt of Pern to encroach upon Bolivia,and declares himselt at once prepared and willing to enter the field against the Peruvian army.

There are hundreds, yea, thousands of gallant Whigs and Democrats in Georgia, who would delight to do honor to this patriotic citizen, by voting for him for Governor, at the ensuing election. In fact, sach Is the intention, we understand, of many Scott Whigs, who canoot get their consent to vote for Mr. Jenkins. Of course, every voto thus given will be thrown away on a man who is not a candidate, but it will be none the less a compliment to that gentleman. Nor will bis consent be ask. Every citizon has the right to vote for whom he pleases, and in bo doing he is In the “line of precedent” as established,last year, by Toombs & Co.

There was much excitement at Honolulu, in con sequence of tiie appearance of tiie small pox in the isiaudft in a most malignant form. Oil the advent of the diseaso, the Legislature passed n law for the ap pointment of three commissioners of tho public health, who immediately adopted measures for a gen eral vaccination of the people, and to prevent its ex tension. Tho King had issued a proelatnution for tiie obser vance of the 15th of June, as a day of fasting, hu miliation and prayer. The Polynesian says tho amount of drafts drawn by ships belonging to tho American whaling fleet, touching at Honolulu mid Lahaina during the last senson up to January 1st, amounted to $300,000. The cost of exchange upon this largo amount was from 10 to 12 per ceut. From Jamaica, By this arrival, wo have received a file of King ston papers from tho 12th to the 28th of July, both dates inclusive, but as usual, they contain little news of interest. Tho Rev. T. B.

James Victor, a senman belonging to tho Prussian bark Adeline, was murdered at Kingston, on the 17th ult. William McDongul, a seaman on tho Eng lish brig Jane, supposed to bo the murderer, wns ar rested and committed for trial. The Kingston Morning Jmirnallearns on undoubt ed authority, that the ucw commander of the.forces in the island, in the room of Major Goueral Bunbury will be Sir Richard D’Harty. Sixty-two felons, sentenced to the General Peni tentiary and other prisons in the island, have receiv ed her Majesty’s gracious pardon since Inat repc-* on this Bubjcct. Thirty-one of tills lot are to work agricultural laborers, twenty-six have been sot at Inrgo—bolng pardoned unconditionally, and five have been directed to find security for keeping tho pcuce. The number of prisoners pardoned since Sir Charles Grey announced his intention to do so if tho Legisla ture did not provide for their support, one hundreJ and Bixty. Among the lands offered for sale in Trinidad is a sugar estate called the Mayaro with land in cultiva tion, estimated to yield 110 hogBheads. Beside the cane cultivation, which is to yield 110 hogsheads of sugar, there aro 1200 cocoa nut trees in benring. and- a mill to express the oil. This udvertisoment shows that tiie Trinidad planters, or some of them, are not trusting to sugar alone, but arc turning that most valuable of all trees, the cocoa nut, and producing oil as well as sugar. The Kingston Journal, commenting on tho difficul ties encountered in attempting to induce tho color ed people of the United States to migrate to Jamaica, says: We have repeatedly alluded to the advantage to result to tho island, and to the colored Americans who may resort to it and mnko it their homo, from the introduction of a large number of them, and re commend tlmt measures should bo taken to encour age their migration to it. There would seem, how ever, to exist no reason for believing that tho free colored Americans will bo ready to accent tho invita tion held out to them, or to leave the united States nnless compelled to do so. Some few individuals, weary of the conflict in which they are engaged,may be disposed to leave a country in which they are en gaged to so much undeserved contumely, but the grent bulk pf the free colored Americans appear de termined to brave tiie storm. inliitarjr ,13 to (Ion.

It was represented that ho would thus have un opportunity to see tho country, and study its peculiarities, while lie would suffer no delay, uh he could return before the season would permit him to proceed on Ids voyuge. Ho decided upon going, aud took with him his Malny secretary. Ho passed some time in that part of Sumatra very agreeably, visiting tho various tribes of natives in tho vicinity, becoming acquainted with their chiefs and familiar with their language, and {raining the confidence and esteem of many ol the native.princes, who were not especially friendly to the rule of the Dutch. His motive in all this was the gratification of curiosity us he had no designs connected with trade or any other adventure, lio tnlked, however, with great nod imprudent freedom of tho natural resour ces of the country—of tho immense progress it might make under better auspices and a better government, and probably of tho special fitness of tiie Yankee character for its proper development. Those conver sations, and tho rapid favor lio was acquiring witli thu native tribes, excited tho jeulously of the Dutch authorities, who kept.a close watch upon his move ments. • Intending to mako a voyage up tho river in tho Flirt, Capt. Gibson directed his secretary to writ3a letter announcing that intention to tho Sultan of Jnruibec. Instead of writing what was directed, tiie narrative ull> g.'B, the secretary compiled a note in Amble to the following effect, to which Capt.

Gibson was arrested and con fined in n dungeon in tiie fortress nt Falembang.— His arrest took place at 4 o'clock,and ho wus notified that he would be shot at six. The Governor’s council however, decided to remove him at Batavia, where lie was first confined on board tiie guard ship, aud sub sequently in the fortress of Wettuvrecdon. In February, 1852, Capt. Gibson was brought up for examination before the Judge Commissioners of the local Court of Batavia, which is composed largely of disaffected natives, aud does not sympathise very strongly, therefore, with thu Dutch authorities. Af ter tho examination closed, the Court declared that there was no grounds for his detention, and on the 25th of February, ordered him to be set nt liberty. He was thus out of prison a day and a hair in the city of Batavia, when the Attorney-General of tho King issued a warrant for his re-arrest, and this warrant wns ratified by tho Supremo Council of Netherlund India. He was again thrown into prison, and re mained some mouths, awaiting his trial, contiued in a room ten feet by thirteen.

Yesterday afternoon, at a little after four o’clook, a frightful collision occurred on tho Camden and Am boy Railroad.near Old Bridge, between the 2 o’clock train from Philadelphia and tho afternoon train from New York. The trains met in full speed and the col lision was fearful. Tho train from Camden was com- C osed of six passenger cars, all full. That from Am oy, with five cars, was going at greatspcod.tho con ductor endeavoring to nmke up for some lost time.— The engineers of each train had just tlmo to jump off their locomotives, and the next moment the engines were in collision, and the first car of one train was driven into the forward car of the other. Four persons were instantly killed, and about twen ty were more or loss seriously injured. D. II. Durkin, Esq., or New York, was on tho train, accompanied by his wife, three children and a white woman as nnrso, all of whom were caught under the two cars which lapped on each other. Mr. Durkin was sl'ghtly bruised—his lady was more severely hurt, and the other elder children severely bruised— while the nurse and younger child; about two years old, were instantly killed. This collision, os »P- _ , a* far as oar information goes, pears to have been tiie result of nnqnalified reckl ness; and it is Raid that the engineers and conduct ors of both trains were arrested, and will be held to answer for the loes of life and injuries that resulted. Of coarse, we hitvo little expectation that ary ponal coBseqnonccs will fallow. In a few days, probably, they will be discharged on bail, tho calamitous re sults oftbelr recklessness will i>o forgotten, and there will be on end of tho matter. If it be so, then we may look in vain for some amendment of railway management; for, os far os at present appears, this oollision has not tho slightest pretension to being called an accident. The passengers passed a series of resolutions directly Impugning tho employees and the general management of tho road.—AT. V. Com mercial, 10th inst, Another Fatal Railroad Accident.

Capt. Magruder and tbe St. Marys accordingly took their departure, and Capt. Gibson heard nothing tnnro about his promised re lease. Ho then wrote to Commodore Aulick, repre senting the hardship of his case, and the illegality of Ids detention, and soliciting his interposition. Tiie Commodore wrote in reply, expressing the warmest sympathy for him, but baying that his instructions from the Government at home forbade his leaving tho Chinese seas, even on so urgent an errand as this seemed to be. Ho promised, however, to do all in ills power for his relief by correspondence. The local Court of Itatavia hotel another meeting upon Capt.Gibson's case, and again, on the 25th of August, declared that it was a hardship aud a wrong that he should be longer kept in prison. Four of ins companions had already died. Two of them were Americans, ono named Orson Chaffee, a native of Wynduam county, Conn., and the other named James Ivery: - tiie other two were Portuguese,— Joaquin Antonio nnd Joao Texeira. who had spent a largo part of their lives in the United Suites. Five others remained, and had been set at liberty. When Gibson was re-arrested, his first officer, Mr. Graham, i had been arrested with him; Henry Jones, of Sag Harbor, L. I., his second officer, and tiie cabin-boy, Antony, were ostensibly liberated, but were kept in prison us witnesses against Gibson. The Judges of the local Court of Batavia had mean time been superceded, so that on the 22d of Decern her Capt. G. was brought before a commission com posed of new members : and this Court also declared that there was nothing in the laws which could make out a case for a public trial. On the 23d of Decem ber, Gibson was again set atliberty. In February, 1853, ho was again arrested upon nn accusation, drawn up by the new solicitor, which set forth the circumstances of Capt. Gibson's sojourn in tiie country, and laid special stress upon the letter lio was charged with having written, andulleging.on tho strength of these representations, that ho had boon guilty of treason, and that bis movements were dangerous to the peace of Netheriaud India. Tiie trial commenced on the 14th of February, and Instcd thirteen days. Forty-three witnesses were examined, consisting of officers, natives, chiefs, See. IIo was aided by two counsellors—F. Ailing Mees and Mr. Snndenborg Matthiesscn. The trial ended February 27, and the parties were notified to attend on the 6th of March, to hear the verdict. The verdict, in the Dutch practico, comprises a detailed history of the whole case, sitting fortli all tho facts proved, as well as tho judgment of tiie Court based upon them. In tills case it occupied 132 printed pages, and conclud ed by finding that there were no grounds on which to accuse Capt. G. of treason—ordered him to be ac quitted and set nt liberty, adjudged tlio Government to pay the costs, directed his vessel to bo restored, and awarded him damages to tho amount of 500 ru pees a day for all tho time he had been imprisoned— tho whole amount of damages awarded .reaching $32,000. At 4 o'clock tho aamo day a warrant wns Issued for his re arrest os a person whose presence was danger ous to tho country, and the warrant was sustained by tho supreme council. Capt. Gibson, having learned from his counsel, that Government had determined on his execution, nnd would order it for tho 25th of April, mAdo an arrangement for his escape. This was effected through the Instrumentality or friends, on board an American clipper in the harbor: These friends procured disguises for him, *o that one day, while the prisoners were at their meals, ho passed the guard, left tho prison in tho dress of a servant, climb ed over two walls, waded the ditch' and by tho aid of horses reached tho sea-shore and got on board. At 0 o'clock, tho alarm of his escape was given, lights were hoisted, and the guantahip fired a shot nt tiie clipper, ordering her to stop. She waa. by this timo, however, well under way, aud stood out to sea. Fatal Casualties!.—One day Inst week while Messrs.

Thus, it was enough for the whites to call it the land ol Cane und Turkey.

Another violent thunder storm passed over our city bust night about 10 o’clock, bringing up thu rear of thu long array of clouds which liavo covered tho sky for several days past. The thunder rumbled for a long time in tho distance, as if dissatisfied with hav ing left our city, but the bright stars in the west twinkled inerrdy at its departure, and seemed to as sure us once more of bright skies nud clear weather. The weuther-encks, which have pertinaciously point ed eastward, now take an opposite direction, and nil things indicate a freedom, at least temporary, from the too profuso favors which the atmosphere has granted us. During the storm the house of Mr. Sterling Arm strong. nenr Mount I’lcasant Cemetery, in this city wus struck by lightning in n very singular maimer — The south-east corner ofthe roof seemed to have been the point first struck, although there was no outward indication ot tiie entrance of the electric current; the pints and undent! lu of the roof was splintered for a distance of about fifteen feet, from whence no signs of its passage are visible in any direction ; the next point at which it appeared was in perforating tho floor in tho hall very near the centre ofthe house, in the first story, and more than thirty feet distant from the point first struck. The hole was not unlike that of a small rille ball shot from below, splintering up ward nnd tearing tiie oil cloth to fragments, passing along the ceiling of tho basement, tearing off the plastering, shivering the joist ami studs; it finally spent its fury by demolishing tho Inside casings of u window in the basement. Mrs. Armstrong and the wife of Mr. L. H. Arm strong were both ill the Hall at the moment, and within four feet of tho spot where, the floor was pierced and the carpet torn to atoms, yet sustained no injury except a slight concussion ami blinding effect of the lightning. Tho house was filled with a Rtrong sul phurous odor, nnd somo smoke. The house was also protected by a lightning-rod, pat up in tho most ap proved manner, with glass Insulators, and elevated some twenty-five feet above tho.point struck as above named, yet no signs are visible of its having been touched. The action of the lightning was so peculiar that the case seems worthy of notice from the scien tific, there being many facts that cannot bo crowded into this notice. The fluid also struck the flag staff on the Market street Railroad depot, shivering it and scattering sniinters in all directions. A number of persons were sitting under thu porch of the depot, but felt no shock. The telegraph wires on the opposite side of Ferry-st., appeared to be lines of fire, and a woman in the Washington House was slightly stunned. Considerable hull fell in Orange, beating down fields of corn, &c.—Newark Daily, 9th inst. Nnpoleon at 8t. Helena. A work has just appeared in l/mdon. which is destined to excite a great sensation. It is entitled a - History of the Cantivity of Napoleon at St. Helena: from the Journul or Sir Hudson Lowe, and official documents not before the public.” We have not yet Hu Tiie Fraudulent Pardon Case.—The cose of Frs. B. Edymnln, who was arrested in till* city nrtd con veyed back to Aubnm Prison on Saturday last, after he had been pardoned by Gov. Seymour and set nt liberty, continues to bo canvassed by those learned In tho law. We pretend only to bnvo a limited knowledge of the criminal' Uw, but thoso who havo msdo it their study for year* boldly assert that they cannot keep him In orison. He has been pardoned by the Governor—liberated by tho keeper, and after an absence of some week*, ho is recommitted. A person cannot bo tried twice Tor tho same of fence, provided ho is acquitted on tho first trial; nor can a person bo twice nunlsliod for the same oflhnco, Admitting It to be true that tho papers on which he obtained his pardon wtfro forgeries, it doos not fol low that he committed tho offence. How could he ,b$ve written them and sent them down to tho Gov ernor If ho had boon properly pratoliodT .Even ad mitting that ho did forge them tho faot will have to' seen the book, says tlio Philadelphia Ledger, but find un analysis of it, with numerous extracts, iu the last number of tho London Athenaum. Tiie work, intended as a defence of Lowe for his brutality to Napoleon, is full of curious revelations. It seenn that tin systematic annoyances to which the exile was subjected, were well known to tho British Ministry, and that, so far forth, Lowe was less guilty than 1ms been popularly supposed. But this is not the darkest shade of the transaction. These volumes leave no shadow of n doubt that Dr. O'Meara, whose " R relations from St. Helena” became afterwards so famous, was originally designed to act ns a spy on the secret thoughts of Napoleon, for the benefit of the Prince Regent, and certain members of the Cabi net, and that he actually filled this disgraceful {lost for awhile ; und that tiie revelations lie made ofitho tortures which the exiled cmperorsullered, •* amuse.■” his Royal H tali ness, to quote from tiie correspon dence. and afforded a “ real feast'' to others In anted- ty. What can be more revolting than this picture ? The highest personages in tho British realm, com prising oven the acting executive, conniving nt u breach of private confidence, and consenting to the petty malice ot a brutal, consequential governor, in order that they might bo “ amused" at the agonies of their victim! It is to tho credit of Peel nnd Wellington, who succeeded tho ministry that thus disgraced itself, that they appear to have dUlikcdtbe entire proceedings. O’Meara himself does not appear la tho most favor able light. The best that can be said of him is that lie firmly refused to assist in this dirtv work, partly from compassion for Napoleon, partly because the British ministry refused to pav a certain twelve thous and francs which he demanded. His “ Revelations from St. Helena, 1 ' was the consequence. Though he assailed tiie cabinet with great acrimony in that book, the government could do nothing in retalia tion. as ho well knew—for the only course they could take to effectually injure him would be to publish his letters written when their spy—and this would dam age them even more than him. All the government did wo* to cause a vituperative article to appear in the Quarterly Review, of which tha authorship was generally attributed to Crokcr. It now seems that this gentloraan was tiie person in the ministry that managed the correspondence, using as his tool • friend of O’Meara's, a clerk in tho Admiralty, whom ho bade to instruct tho doctor to write in the fullest possible detail, all tho anecdotes ho could pick up.— Crokor is still alive and may attempt to whitewash the affair over. But tiie Athenaum says there is not tlio slightest doubt of the authenticity of tho docu ment, and if so, tho task of tlio veteran Tory will be as difficult as changing a leopard’s spots. In short, there seems no doubt, from tho revelations in tliis book, undertaken though it was for a defence of Lowe—that tiie tales told ot the treatment of Na poleon at St. Helena, by O’Meara, Las Casas, Montho- inn, and others, were not a whit beyond tiie truth.— Tlio only result of these volumes is to confirm the general suspicion, which of into years had begun to prevail, that the ministry or Lord Liverpool sanction ed, at least indirectly, all the meannesses and brutal ities of Lowe.—New Orleans Courier. Cspt.'Edward N. McCall, of tho United States Navy, lately decoascd, was highly distinguished in the action between tho Enterprise and Boxer, 8ept. 4tb, 1813, on which occasion, ho succeeded to the command, up on tho full of Lieut. Commandant Burrows. Captain McCall was born on the Gth of August, 1700 In the city of Charleston. Ho entered tho Navy as Midshipman, Jan. 1st. 1808, and was promoted to a Lieutenancy March 14th, 1H13, at which time he was on duty on board the brig Enterprise, or fourteen B ins, thon under tho command of Liuut.

II., for a cruise on tho 1st of September, 1813, and on the 4th, at 20 minutes past three o’clock, P. M., she brought to no tion the British brig Boxer, of fourteen guns. Lieut. Barrows being mortally wouudud early in tho en gagement, though he refused to leave bis past, the command developed upon Lieut. McCall, who carried his ship gallantly through tho action, the enemy sur rendering at 4 o clock, P. M. The loss on board tho Enterprise was one killed and fifteen wounded, whilo that ofthe Boxer was from twenty to twoiity-flvo kill ed and fourteen wounded—among tho former, Captain Blythe, hor commander. By resolution, approved Jan.

If such deeds become more frequent, it will revolutionize tho country in regard to temper- anco laws.—Chattanooga Advertiser. An Antiquarian.—Miss Sarah Ann Haight, daugh ter of Mr. Joseph Haight, of Mumnroneck, Westches ter county, recently found nn her father’s farm uu or dinary sized land turtle, with this inscription on his shill: “W.
