From the N. Y. Herald, November 30.
FROM CANADA.
The expedition to Prescott was fitted out
at Oswego by ceitain land speculators. It
j was in Oswego that the great land specula- j
j tions were commenced some years ago, and j
it was in those speculations that Mr. Van
Buren made the greater part of his fortune.
There are five hundred and seventy-three
prisoners in Montreal jail on the charge of
; treason; this number, added to those confi
i ued at Fort Henry, make a total number of j
j seven hundred and thirty-five prisoners, who :
! are shortly to be tried for their lives.
A special messenger has been sent from
i Montreal to Quebec, to bring up the com
-1 mon hangman, there being no person of that
profession in Montreal at present.
The British party in Canada are still com
; plaining that ail vacancies in public offices
| are filled op by French Canadians. The
j Bench of Magistrates is so composed that the
! French party manage matters as they please.
E ghty-four known rebels were struck off the
list of tavern keepers by the British party ;
the French went to work and had them all
re-iiftlated.
An ordinance ins been passed, declaring
that no person shall be brought to trial fori
high treason, unless the crime was committed j
after the Ist of November.
Great dissatisfaction also exists in Lower !
Canada at the delay relative to the business !
before the Court Martial. As yet nothing j
has been done. Each prisoner is to be ser- •
j ved with a copy of the charge exhibited i
j against him three days before that fixed on !
j for his trial. The first case was to come on i
i last Wednesday.
Chisholm, of the ‘ Montreal’Herald, 5 with
! his usual ferocious naivete, says— 4 The rebels
are very confident that the proceedings of
the Court Martial will be reversed by the
Parliament al home—to ibis we have no ob
jection, provided the Court does its duty, for
if half a hundred of the rascals should be
hung up by the neck as they deserve, the
effect of the sentence would he very little im
paired by cutting (hem down again, and
hanging them up by the heels. 5
One of the three brass pieces taken at
i Prescott belonged to the State of New York.
The Buffalo papers are glorifying Von
; Shultz because, as they say, he is a Pole and
like Brutus run on his own sword. They
! compare him to Marco Botzaris and a host
jof heroes. Unfortunately for the perpetuity
of all this rhodomontade about the brigand,
he is a rascally Russian, and so far from run
ning on his own sword, he will have to go
down by the run 4 paid off’ with a halter.
Mr. Solicitor General Stuart was appoint
ed lesral adviser to Captain Muller, the Judge
Advocate, but. lie is under the necessity of
remaining in Quebec to support the validity
of the Ordinance suspending Habeas Corpus,
which has been pronounced illegal by Mr.
Avlwin, who has brought the question before
ihe Court, in his capacity of Counsel for
John Tlged, a rebel in Quebec gaol. Mr,
Dominique ivibnuui'ei', a Canadian lawyer. |
who has a brother in prison on suspicion of
being guilty of High Treason, has been np
j pointed in place of Mr. Stuart. The objec
tions raised by Mr. T. C. Aylwyn against
tiie legality of the suspension of the act of
Habeas Corpus in the district of Quebec,
have been declared by the Judges to be
valid, and that Conelly and Teed, for whom
Mr. A appeared, will be forthwith dischar
ged. Mr. Justice Bowen declined appearing
on the bench, and tbe court was consequently
composed of Mr. Justice Bedard and Mr.
Justice Patter.
Lord Durham has not been compelled to
put back to Halifax. The Great Western
will not, t! ereforr, carry out the first news of
his return. Lord Durham meant to have
returned Ihrough the United Stales, but hav
ing learnt that the patriots he had banished
to Bermuda and elsewhere, meant to arrest
him in New York, on suits for damages,
£>loo,ooo, he saw the trap, changed his mind,
j arid took shipping at Quebec. Application
; was made to Chancellor Kent, as to the le
j reality of such a process in New York, a
! reply was given, that not only Lord Durham
hut all those who signed the deportation act
; could be arrested here under our laws. This
I caused Lord Durham, and several of his legal
advisers, to avoid New York.— JY. Y. Herald.
Steamboat, Gen. Broirn. —The painful in
telligence of the blowing up of the boilers on
board the steamer General Brown, is con-
I firmed by accounts received from the Em
press and General Harrison, which arrived
j yesterday morning. The explosion occurred
:on the 25th inst. at Helena, where the Brown
i was hying to for freight or passengers, and
is attributed to the neglect of the Engineer [
j in not letting off the steam in sufficient quan- 1
[ lilies. The effects of the accident were fright- j
| ful and awfully destructive. The force of
the explosion was so great as to throw two
! of the boilers out of the boat upon the bank.
; The other boilers were torn to fragments and
[scattered in every direction, and the entire
boiler deck, extending aft as fir as the door
of the main cabin, was carried away and
tossed into the river and upon the shore. —
The number of killed and missing, with the
names of the sufferers, are stated in the list
subjoined. Here we have another example
of the effects of steamboat racing—a perni
j cions and atrocious practice, which continues
j to make havoc of human life on our waters,
i in spite of the restraints and penalties im
| posed bv the law and the denunciations of
| the pubiic. press. As the affair will become
a subject of legal investigation, we refrain
I from further comment.

Dear Sir : To the veteran, who for sixty years
has bathed in his country’s service, the Republican \
parly of Davidson county, respectfully tender an invi
tation to a barbecue, to be given to the Hon. James K. j
Polk, at Ihe Island Spring near Nashville, on Tuesday, i
the 6th day of November next.
*Your eminent p iblic services—your advanced ago—
ihe large space you have filled in the eyes of mankind, i
and your ardent attachment to Democratic principles, j
i all combine in urging us to present this request with j
! peculiar earnestness. You are well aware that a pow
| erful effort is making to compel Tennessee to drink the
j dregs of that bitkr cup of which she has already too
: deeply tasted. The Lieutenants of Mr. Ciav are
i canvassing the S.ate with the view of completing the
transfer which was executed at Washington during the
i last winter. Our aspirations, and your treasured re
collections. alike unite to prevent us from silently wit
nessing this desecration of principles. The Democ
racy of the country are already aroused, and araentlv
seeking for information on the all absorbin'; topics of
’ discussion. To be amon<rst the people, diffusing ii<;ht
ari 1 information, is certainly the duty of the l< epuhli- i
can leaders ; but in this, as in all other conflicts, they
j desire at ieast the presence , if not the active assistance,
i of their old commander.
Permit us, then, to repeat our invitation, and kindly
urge its acceptance.

j To Gen. Andreyv Jackson Hermitage.
Hermitage, November 3. 1838.
Gentlemen; I thank you for the flattering terms
I in which you have been pleased to invite me to unite
with iny Republican friends of Davidson county, in
i partaking of the barbecue to be given to the Hon. James
!X. Polk on the 6th instant. Entertaining the highest
■ opinion of this gentleman’s patriotism and talents, it is
a source of great regret to me that the state of iny
j health will not allow me to join you in the tribute which
i is due to his distinguished services, at this critical
‘juncture in our public affairs.
I she present crisis has been forced upon us by the
I intrigues of the party which has always distrusted the
; virtue and intelligence of the people, and has invaria
bly sought power by means that would disturb the
| chec sand balances of our happy Constitution, and
; engraft upon our .-ystem of Government the principles
and habits of the Aristocracies of the old world. The
people have, however, uniformly delected and baffled
al! such intrigues, and I despair not of their readiness
to Expose and disappoint the derestable one to which
you refer, as having been set on foot at Washington
during the last winter.
You overrate, gentlemen, the services it. has been
my lot to render in the various stations to which I have
been called by the voice of my country. I have found
that, in every public exigency, the path of my duty
was never obscure, because it was generally enlighten
ed by the observation and experience of the free citi
zens whose servant I was. Both in miliary and civil
| life I had the advantage of such light and instruction,
and my merit, therefore, as your comm a ndeb . cannot
be more than secondary to that which is due to the
brave and intelligent constituency which entrusted to
me the defence or temporary guardianship of their
rights and interests. This constituency is still un
changed and uncorrupted. It is still the’same foe to
Federalism that it was in the days of Jefferson, and in
the dark hours of the war tve waged with Great Bri
tain for the re-establishment of our national indepen
dence. Such a constituency will never stain its honor
by confirming a bargain which appoints a commander
for them, who is identified with none of their patrio’ic
services in the tented field, nor with any of their cher
ished sentiments and views respecting the principles of
government.
To this constituency,.gentlemen, do I look with un
diminished confidence in the present crisis. It is al
ready rallying, as n days of old, around tiie flag of the
R “publican party, and it will teach those who act upon
the doctrine that the people are incapable of managing
their own interests, a lesson that will be as useful as
the civil revolution of 1800.
Allow me, in conclusion, to request that you w.i.l’
I Jiff r AkPCtimpiffly who will he present at the barba
cue, the subjoined sentiment, in my name, and believe
me,
Very respectful! y, your servant.

From Texas. —There were two arrivals from Texas
yesterday, tine of die schooners made a passage of
three days from Galveston. A passenger was so
obliging as to pay us a visit, with a view to communi
cate the news—a practice we recommend to other
‘ravellers on iheir arrival from countries, the events of
‘•lnch are supposed to interest the public. The gen
t ‘man informed us that he heard nothing at Houston
or Galveston of an invasion of the San Antonio district
by the Comanche Indians, an account, of which ap
peared in the Bulletin (if the 21th, purporting to be
founded on a letter received at Houston the lltn ult.
j His opinion is that there is no truth in the rumor,
j That such a letter was received at Houston is alto
; gether probable, for in the prevailing consternation
; and alarm of an Indian war. the most extravagant and
| incredible rumors were set afloat. The individual
[ himself had been on one excursion to the frontier set
| foments, and on his return was astonished to hear
the narratives of skirmishes, fights and massacres,
happening in places which he had visited in person,
and never heard of them Many persons took delight
in fabricating marvellous and frightful stories. From
the same source we learn that tidings had been receiv
ed from the expedition under General Rusk, which
represent the troubles in the East to be at an end.
The Indians had fled, and were dispersed. All ajv
prehensions from that quarter were for the present
quieted. The harvest in Texas, generally, was abun
dant. Vast quantities of corn had been raised, suffi
cient, it was supposed, for the wants of the growing
population. Since the conclusion of the Indi ‘n war
fare every thing was quiet, and promised the continu
ance of peace and prosperity. — Commercial Bulletin,
