Pioilfy,.there remama the question of the Bay
Islands, as to which there is more of controver
sy—at least, in appearance, it is due to perfect
frankness to nay that the act of Her Majes
ty’s gorernment, establishing. *> late as tho
year 1852 (and in apparent contradiction to the
exprew letter of the Convention of 1850.) a
colony at Bar Islands, has left a disagreeable
impression on the minds of the Government and
people of the United States.
Possessing, as Great Britain docs, numerous
colonial establishments, in all oartsof the world,
many of them in the West I mlies, it luts not
beeu readily seen what inducements of in

o. tue ti .j ldAudi.nud considering the state of
thinn existing in that quarter at the date of
the Convention of 1850, does this Government
well <ee on what ground it can be maintained
that Great Britain at that time had possession
of the Bay Islands, which coaid be deemed
rightful, either as respects the engagements
with the United States or territorial sovereignty
of the Republic of Honduras. 1 do not under

claim according to the established public
law of 11 real Britaiu, of the United States,
or of the independent States which have
succeeded Spain in America, remembering
no Power exists ou the part of Great
Britain and the Uuitcd States, to dispose
of the sovereign rights of Nicaragua or
of any other State of Central America.
Mr. Mnrcy concludes os follows;
All these questions of political geogra
phy regard in the first instance, the sove
reignty and jurisdiction of the indepen
dent States of Central America. Great
Britain and the United States have no
pretension thus to intervene, except for
the purpose of defining their own mutual
obligations, arising out of engagements
they may have contracted in Older to as
sure how far they coueerned the neutrali
ty and independence of the American
Isthmus. Regarded only a3 collateral
considerations affecting the construction
of the treaty betwc-cu the United States
and Great’ Britain, they arc questions
an uK-iinatinn ou the part of the British which, if not determinable by agreement
.ninea „i.i m between the two governments themselves,
the President would not decline to refer
to arbitration. He is aware of the exis
tence of nnuy practical obstacles to the
adjustment of any international differen
ces of this nature by arbitration, of which
difficulties Great Britain and the United
States had experience in the attempt to
settle, by such means, a previous contro
versy on the subject of the boundary be
tween the United States and the British
provinces in North America.
The President does not doubt that auy
one of the Powers of Europe which should
consent to undertake the task of such
arbitration as is now proposed, would
perform the duty with perfect impartial
ity, but to apply to any power to do this,
would l)e to asls of them an act which, if
granted, would add to their own domes
tic duties, the labors and burden of set
tling the complicated differences of other
governments. He would greatly prefer
that, in a controversy like the present,
turning on points of political geography,
the matter should be referred to some one
or more of those eminent men of science,
who do honor to the intellect of Europe
to maintain such a claim, but concedes at the
same time that it is a debateabletjaestion. The
President does not permit himseli for a moment
to entertain the idea that the Earl of Clarendon
will insist upon auy claim of right in Central
America incompatible with the most sacred re
spect for oil the stipulations of the treaty as un
derstood by Her Majesty’s Government.’
Of course he looks to see what are the right
ful sources of the British title to the Bav Islands
suggested by the Earl of Clarendon, fie finds
them in the statement of May 2, H54,03 com
municated to Mr.Buelianan and by him transmit
ted to this Department- Her Majesty’s govern
ment admits in that paper that Kuatan was
claimed and militarily occupied by the former
republic of Central America as successor to the
rights of Spain, but asserts at the same time the
adverse British claim, manifested by acts of au
thority, military and civil, and by acts of act
ual possession. Occasional acts of military
authority by captains of British »hip3 of war,
or civil authority by the superintendent of
Belize, are insuflicient, it is obvious, to deter
mine the claim of the title as against the coun
ter claim of the Repablic of Central America,
or State of Uondurus. No relinquishment of
title by the latter is alleged, except in certain
declarations reported to have been made by the
Central American commandant of Truxillo,
who, whatever he uny have said, could have no
power to cede away the territory of Honduras
The occupation ot Ruatan by British subjects,
as Us origin and character are descried in the
statement, presents none of the conditions of
rightful possesion. Its language on that point I an j America, and who, with the previous
ia • “Wit .tin has l..ir. n nf iln VMM n-itfinnt f>r>v - . • . *
is : "Ruatan has been, of late years, without any
instigation on the part of Her Majesty’s gov
ernment, spontaneously occupied by British sub
jects.” It is not presumable that the spontaneous
occupation of Rutan by British subjects, without
instigation on the part of Her Majesty's gov
ernment—that is, an act of mere invasion by
unauthorized private persons—will be per»ever-
ingly insisted upon by I-ord Clarendon as a
foundation claim by Great Britain to the sove
reignty or even rightful possession of the Bay
Islands. It cannot have escaped the attentio’u
of Her Majesty’s government that the political
condition of Belize, as fixed by the treaty, is
not itself, one of territorial sovereignty. There
fore Great Britain could never have acquired in
right of Belize, and the assumed dependencies
thereof, the territorial sovereignty of the Bay
Islands. In a word, this government believes
that the Bay Islands belong to the State of Hon
duras, and that, therefore, the occupation of
consent of their respective governments,
might well undertake the task of deter
mining such questions to the acceptance,
as well of her Majesty’s government as
that of the United States. You are in
structed, therefore, to enter iuto commu
nication with her Majesty's principal Se
cretary of Foreign Affairsin relation to Cen
tral America, in order to ascertain, in the
first place, whether the existing differen
ces cannot be promptly terminated by di
rect negotiation, and, if thev cannot,’then

those points of difference as to which alone

Matter*:
We took occasion some two or’ three weeks
ago. to call attention to the constant lnumlla*
tion of Hutchinson's Island and proposed at
some leisure momenta to express an opinion or
two on the subject.
The Island, as It now stands, Is in the worst
condition tor the health of the city that possibly
could exist. Lands of the character of those
which lie opposite the city are In the best Hani
tary condition, when they are planted In com
or small grain requiring a thorough drainage—
particularly those kinds of grain which will not
bear in tho slightest degree an accumulation of
water. The next most advantageous is where
the lands being thoroughly banked with sulfi-
cient trunks Ac., to exclude the water, areal-
lowed to lie waste without any culture whatever.
After these too it would be far better to allow
the lands to be planted in Rice, and permit the
tide to flow in and out at every rise and fall,
than to let it lie waste and be inundated. When
fields are put in order for the planting of Rice,
they are supplied with large ditches, running
parralled with the banks which arc called Pace
Ditches—from these Face Ditches run trans
versely across the fields what are designated
quarter-drains. By this system of drainage n
field is instantaneously dried as the tide falls
from the lands.
The great objection to the culture of rice up
on the body of rice land, which la under the dry
culture contract, is not anything in the rice
plant itself, but in the method of its cultivation.
Tbe water which is placed upon the rice about
tbe middle of July and kept there without
change for six weeks, to mature the grain.
Is the cause of the malaria which is so dis
astrous in its effects. If the water be allow
ed to run on the island at all it would be better
that It should be planted in rice, with the pro
viso, that the water should not be retained, but
ebb and flow with the tide. If planted in this
way the ditches would be obliged to be kept
perfectly clear,‘and there never would be re
maining any stagnant water. As the case now
stands, with the ditches grown up with grass
and weeds, it Is impossible that the land should
be freed from the pools of water exposed to the
sun: the imperfect drainage does not give time
before the reflux of the tide covers it again.—
Every person who has any knowledge of these
matters will appreciate the weight of the objec
tion to leaving the land In its present condi
tion.
We are well aware of the difficulty which Is
ateudant upon keeping lands of that descrip
tion in order, and particularly of putting it in a
proper condition at this season of the year. It
the City Is to remain in possession of these
lands fur any length of time, a .substantial eu.
bankment should lie put up, with trunks which
are intended simply for the purpose of drain
age.— It will be found hard to obtain labor uow
for the proper execution of the work. White
labor is impossilbe, as the work is unsuited to
the constitution of the whites during the hot
months. Black’s are almost beyoud the pro
bability of obtaining. That something must be
done however, there is no denying. It would be
well for the City to employ some one who is
competent in knowledge of such work, to uuder.
take the matter. A person who has had some
acquaintance with some Rice Plantation would
be tbe best of all others.
Persons need not be alarmed at the recent
increase of water upon the Island ; the cause
of it is the prevalence of easterly winds which
serve to drive up the tides to an unusual height*
Indignation Meeting In New York*
An immense meeting couvened in New York
last Friday night, to denounce Mr. Brooks, From
the Commercial, we learn that the Taber
nacle was never before filled with an audience
at once so numerous, so influential in character
and position, and so enthusiastically unani
mous in sentiment and feeling.
Tbe oldest merchant of the city, George
Griswold, Esq.; presided, the meeting being
called to order by John A. Stevens, Esq., presi
dent of the Bank of Commerce.
speeches were made by Daniel Lord, Esq.
Hon. Samuel B. Ruggles, Cbas. King, Esq.,
Hon. Edw. B. Morgan, John A. Stevens, Joseph
Hoxie, and Wm. M- Evarta, and, as a matter of
course, Henry Ward Beechor—all breathing a
most imflammatory spirit. We give some of the
resolutions:
Resolved, That we sincerely and respect
fully tender oar sympathy to Senator Sumner in
tbe personal outrage inflicted upon him.
Resolved, That we discover no trace or trait,
either in the meditation, the preparation, or the
execution of this outrage by Preston 8. Brooks,
which should qualify the condemnation with
which we now pronounce it brutal, murderous
and cowardly,
giResolved. That to urge the casual violence
or an individual to tbe disgrace and injury of
the community in which he lives, and of the
social institution of that community, is ungen
erous and unjust, until it appears that such
community approves the act and applauds the
actor, but when such concurrence of public
sentiment and public action are manifested on
authentic evidence, the private outrage is swal
lowed up in the public injamij, and the question
involved is enlarged to an immense magnitude
and importance.
Resolved. That we have witnessed with un
mixed astonishment and the deepest regret, the
clear, bold, exulting espousal of the outrage
and justification and honor of its perpetrator,
exhibited by Senators and Representatives ot
Slave States without distinction of party, in
their public places, and by the public press,
without distinction of party, in the same por
tion of our country, ana that upon the present
state of the evidence, we are ibreed mori un
willingly to tbe sad conclusion that the general
community of the Slave States is in complicity
in feeling and principle, with the system of in
timidation and violence for the suppression ol
freedom of speech and of the press, of which
the assault on Senator Sumner is the most sig
nal, bnt not the singular instance. That we
sincerely hope that, on fuller and calmer con
sideration, the public men and public press aud
the general community of tbe Slave States,
will give us n distinct manifestation of their
sentiments, which wiill enable us, too, recon
sider our present judgment.
But suppose, gentlemen, the South shall not,
on a further considertlon, give such manifesta
tions of their sentiments as will enable you to
reconsider your present judgment—what then?
Wflat will yon do abont it ? Perhaps the South
ern people will prove utterly indifferent to your
censure. Perhaps they are as independent of
New York as New York is of them. That is
our impression. And as you have thought
proper to give expression to your views pretty
freely, of our course, toe will do the same of
yours. Our opinion then is, that in thus play
ing into the hands of the Abolitionists—placing
blazing faggots under their boiling cauldron—
you are doing very little for the perpetuation of
the Union, to which you profess so much devo
tion. Whether your merchants by thus giving
their sanction to the Massachusetts Senator’s
foul aspersions of the South, and everything
Southern, can increase the profits of their trade
with the Abolitionists, we know not. If, ns is
likely, this was one of their objects, we would
suggest to Southern traders and planters wheth
er they cannot, to some extent, at least, avoid
competition with your Abolition favorites by
making their purchases this side of the island
of Manhattan. New York, through her most
accredited organ, having put the whole South
under the ban of infamy, decent self-respect
would prompt the South to have just os little
dealing with New York as may be practicable.
The Paris correspondent of the New York
Courier 4• Enquirer, of the 15th May, says that
considerable uneasiness had been felt for some
time past concerning the health of the Empress
Eugenie. Her not appearing in public for so
long a period after her confinement, and her
being seated during the ceremony of her church-
* n B> ffave rise to this idea. She, however, ap
peared on the 14th, in her open carriage, in tho
Bi.sde Boulogne, accompanied by the Empe
ror. She is stated to have ‘ 1 looked cbarqiingly^
was obvious that her Umbs were sup
ported by some mechanical contrivance."
The same correspondent states that in conse
quence of the late frosts great damage has been
done to the vine iu that portion of the country
In which the Burgundy jrlne* are produced.
Action of the Clncthnntl Conventlrm
The Journal of Commerce, one of the very
few conservative papers now left in the North,
speaks In forcible terms of the responsibility
resting upon the ColVention now in session at
Cincinnati. Its members (says that paper) are
not called upon to decide upon the expedien 1
cy or uon-expediency of a National Bank; tbe
comparative advantages or disadvantage of
Free Trade or Protection; nor upon any dis
puted question of internal improvement; but
they are called upon to protect the organ
ic law of the Confederacy against the as-
units ol fanaticism and intolerance, to resist
any attempt Vo sever the Union of the States;
to assert the civil and religious liberty of our
countrymen; to proclaim, not for the present
but for all time, the Constitutional right of tbe
people to regulate their own affaire, and to con
tend for aud maintain those cardinal doctrines of
the Democratic political creed, which are the
groundwork of our constitutional system, which
it is our bouuden duty to our patriot ancestow,
to our cotemporaries aud to future generations,
to preserve iuviolatc, as the very essence of the
Charter of our Freedom. Whatever nomina
tion they make to the highest executive offices
of the State, will not improbably be ratified by
the people in Novenber. The trust therefore
confided to them is as responsible as it is lofty.
The Charleston Courier, in some remarks on
the same theme, takes occassion to say that
whatever preferences may be entertained for
either of the three prominent candidates, we
believe that the Southern people would support
the nomination of afiy one of them with cheer-
fnlnes and great unanimity.
And so we say and sincerely believe.
Rev. Dr. Crawford.
From the following extract from a letter to
the Nashville Banner, it will be seen that Dr.
Crawford the President of Mercer University
has accepted an appointment in Tennessee. His
removal will be a serious loss to his denomina
tion in Georgia. v

Boston, May JO,1856
Id the House of Representatives to-day,
the following resolution was offered by
Mr. C. Hale, of the BostoriMd vert iter,
member from Boston, nnd was referred
to a committee:—
Resolved, That the sum of ten thousand
dollars be allowed aud paid out of the
treasury of the Commonwealth to his
Excellency the Governor, to be by him
applied in whole or part, iu such manner
not repugnaut to the constitution and
laws, as shall most effectually aid the peo
ple of Kansas who were represented in the
convention which assembled at Topeka in
October, 1855, in maintaining their rights
a3 men and citizens under the constitution
of the United States; and that the Gov
ernor, by and with the advice aud consent
of the Council, have authority to appoint
such agents to disburse the ’said sum as
may be necessary, and ,the agents so np
pointed shall account ,onlv to him for the
money by them expended’, and the Gov
ernor is hereby authorized to draw his
warrant accordingly.
The American ’Council. No. 432, of
Worcester, have resolved that in case of
personal outrage and violence being
threatened to Mr. Sumner’s colleague and
others representing the old Bay State in
Congress, we agTee to hold ourselves
prepared to depart at an hour's notice for
the capital of our country, if tbe demand
is necessary, to defend the delegation from
this State in Congress against personal
attack from Southern assassins.
y. The Washington correspondent of the French
paper of New York, supposed to represent the
feeling of the French Minister, treats the dis
missal of Mr. Crompton as a question of more
gravity than we have attached to it. He writes
as follows:
The blow will be so much the more keenly
felt in England, as the last articles or the Lou
don journals indicate confidence that the dia-
e tch of Lord Clarendon would be accepted by
» United States aa a sufficient satisfaction.
That disposition of the public mind assures to
the Ministry the support of Parliament and of
puplic opinion, for all the measures it may
think proper to take by way of reprisals- If
Mr. Pierce and Mr. Marcy have counted on
anything else, as is too probable, the disillusion
will not be long coming, and the return of Mr.
Dallas will soon awakeu them from their com
placent error.
Thukshax, May 29, 8 P. M.
. . . Neither the conciliatory form which
has per force been given to the response, nor
the distinction established between the Euglish
Government and Its agents, can sweeten the
bitterness of tbe deed. None of that considera
tion displayed to Lord Clarendon has been
shown to Mr. Crampton. The dispatch which
announced the reason for his d ismissal was not
even communicated to him. It was sent di
rectly to London by yesterday’s steamer, and
it was only after the departure of the steamer,
was officially known here, that his passports
were addressed to him

St. Joseph, May 22,1856.—Last night
one of the most diabolical aud terrible
murders occurred within four miles of
this city, that ever shocked a community
or outraged humanity.
Mr. Jacob Friend, with his wife aud
five children, resided in a neat cabin, em
bowered by ancient forests upon the bord
er of the beautiful lake which lies just be
low our town, and cultivated in a quiet
but profitable way, a piece of land which
he had lately reclaimed from the wilder
ness. 4
Young Barada was there last evening,
and left them all in the enjoyment of health
aud happiness. This morning, a young
lady was passing, and found the houk and
its inhabitants iu ashes.
The news spread like wild-fire, and in
a few hours many^rom our city aud neigh
borhood were on the spot. The question
with every one was, how so many persons
could have been burned in one room.
The cabin contained but one room about
sixteen feet square, with two doors, a
window and a fire place. The window
and the fire place were in the opposite
sides. On either side of the window,
with their feet towards the doors, lmd
stood the beOs in which the family slept.
From where the beds stood, egress was
easy and convenient through the window
aud the doors.
It was hardly possible then, that
persons—a man of 45, a woman of 40
young man of 13 a girl of 16 and.o small
children conld have beeu burnt from fire
originating in the fire place. There were
too many ways of escape. Nor for the
same reason could they nave been burned
to death, if the fire had been communi
cated to any part of the building. The con
clusion, then, before any examination, was
that murder, most foul and unnatural,
had been busy with his bloody knife, be
fore the fire was ignited.
The jury of inquest are now sitting.
They have arrived at no further conclu
sion, as yet, than that it was u horrible
murder.’

N EW York Money Market.—The Commercial
Advertiser of last Saturday evening saj’s:
The week closes with decidedly more case in
the money market, and capital is rather press
ed upon the market on call at seven per cent
First class short paper rules at seven to eight'
per cent, and longer dates and names less
known at eight to nine per cent. There is a
general feeling of confidence that the present
difficulties between the United States and Great
Britain will lie amicably arranged, and this is
evidently the belief of oar government. On no
other grounds can the renewal of the offer to
redeem the outstanding public stocks of the
countly, in advance of their maturity, and at a
high premium, be accounted for. Were the
government at all apprehensive that we are
upon the eve of a war, which could not be other
wise than a costly one.it is but reasonable to
suppose that it would be more anxious to devise
means to replenish the Treasury, than to deplete
it, by the redemption of obligations years in ad
vance of their becoming due.
A Fresh Account of the Destruction of
Lnxvrence,
(l'iom the Doniphan CbnstituUonaliflt, K-T.)
We have just arrived from that notorious
abolition hole, Lawrence. On Wednesday even
ing, the 21st, about 500 men, under the direc
tion of the United States Marshal, assembled
before the town, and demanded that the arms
in Lawrence be given up, and he be allowed to
arrest those for whom he had writs. They sub.
mitted to tho demand, and unconditionally
surrendered, giving up four pieces or cannon
and some twenty Slmrpe’s rifles.
Before the Marshal dismissed the men, Sher
iff Joues, though hut lately shot by one of tbe
cowardly traitors in the darkness of the night,
approached on horseback and summoned tho
whole company to assist him in making arrests
