It appears that, a fortnight since, six or eight teams came up from the St. John Diver, and as usual, began lo tres pass upon the timber on the Aroostook. The settlers associated themselves together, about one hundred in number, am] immediately drove off those trespassers from the territory. It will be recollected that the Aroostook is on ibis side of the St. John, ami within the acknowledged juris dicliuli of Maine, although within the tract clai med by Great Urilain. ' Mexico and Texas. The N. O. True American of the 23d says, information has been received in this place, which justifies us in the belief that Mexico will soon recognise the Independence of Texas. Every interest in the former would lead every one knowing the relative situation of the two countries, to believe that it will soon ho accom plished, and therefore place Texas in an indepen dent stand among the Depublics of North America- For the Chronicle i]r Sentinel. To the Voters of Kiehinoml County. It is currently reported that among the charges brought against Mr. Mxlt.bh, one of our candi dates for the Senate, the gravest is that he appear ed as Counsel, in defence of a slave recently convicted of a capital crime. In a country iu which the laws have establish ed courts for the trial of slaves, and allowed thorn the privilege of counsel, it is strange enough lo object lo an officer of one of these comts, as Mr. Miller was, that he took part In an investigation before it, involving the life of a fellow creature. -His vindication ought to bo considered fully made out by the mere mention of bisprulessiotial chaiaclcr. Hut sitJce some men, from want of timclo reflect, are as much influenced by names us by facts and principles, permit me to state to you some of the circumstances of this case, shewing the views of the most active member of the party opposed to Mr. Miller, and from whose opposition he has most lo fear. General Thomas Glascock, the most efficient friend of General Walker, and lire strongest op ponent of Mr. Miller, was, himself, employed by Mr. Stovall, the owner of the slave in question, I to defend him—actually attended, as bis counsel, ot one of tire preliminary examinations, at which he was silent, only (as he told his client) became , he thought it best to boa mere listener, that the / prosecutrix and her witnesses might not ho on their guard—and, finally, excused himself from appearing at the trial, unly Inxaiisc previou en gagements called him to lire up Country, at the same lime, advising .Mr S. tu cmhlon .)/, .Miller, so that whatever others may say, General Glascock, at lead, cannot censure Mi. Miller I'm tilling the place which ho vacated, only h, L , ut .. he was obliged to do so. , The laws of your State secured t > the slave the juivilcgo of h trial hy jury and defonee hy counsel. If no counsel had boon employed, it would have hech the iluli/ of the Court to ap point Mr. Alillcror some other attorney to defend him. Will it then he objected to Mr. Miller, and especially hy the friends of Gen. Glasscock, that ho has done what the General himself would have done, hut lor oile r engagements —what he advised Mr. S. to call on Mr. Miller to do, and what ho, or Mr. Miller, or any other attorney might have been required to do for any culprit, however guilty. It might as well he objected to the other can didate, Gen. Walker, one of iho Judges in the very ease, that he presided at the trial of this slave, and gave him, as lie expressed it, in his. own pcculur style, when pronouncing iho sen tence of death, “as fair a chance ns if ho had been as white as any of us.” The plain truth is, that Gen. Walker, as Judge, and Mr. Miller, as Counsel, did hut their duly— a duly from which neither would meanly bkitlL because the knowing ones thought it would he unpopular; in the mere thinking of which, they insulted our feelings of justice olid humanity, our common sense and respect for the laws and institutions of our country, A VOTEII. The American Uoard of Missions held its an nual meeting last week in Portland. The receipts of the year, as stated in the Treasurer’s Report, amounted to ?310,000. The sum of S 13,500 has been realized by the First Municipality of Now Orleans, from the let ting of oyster stands on the levee. The wooden pavements in New York begin to rise up—the Mocks in some places, says the Star, jump and settle down again when a emt or a car riage passes over them in a very rainy day, like frogs in a mud-puddle. FiltST DKCAUTUIIK of A StKAM VMS Silt, FOU St. PiiTßtisiiefto.—On the Ist of August, the steam ship Sirius, recently trading between lon don and Now Fork, sailed from East lane stairs, IJcrtnondscy, Cor St. Petersburg.

My Ttords tiitil Ccntlcmen: The date of public business enables me to dose this protracted and laborious session. 1 have to lament that the civil war in Spain forms an exception to the general tranquility, 1 continue to receive from all torcign powers the strongest assuiuiic.es of iheir desire to maintain with me the most amicable relations. The disturbances and insurrections which had, unfortunately, broken out in Upper and Lower Canada, have been promptly suppressed, and I entertain a confident hope that firm and judicious measures will empower you to restore a constitu tional form of government, which unhappy events have competed you fora time to suspend. I rejoice at the progress which has been made in my colonial possessions towards the entire ab olition of negro apprenticeship. 1 have observed with much satisfaction, the attention which you have bestowed upon the amendment of Iho domestic institutions of the country. I trust that the mitigation of the law of imprisonment for debt will prove at once fa. vorablo to Iho liberty of my subjects, and sale for commercial credit; and that the established church will derive increased strength and eiii. ciency from the restriction of the granting bene fices in plurality. I have fell great pleasure in giving my assent to the. bill for the relief of the destitute poor in Ireland. I cherish the expectation that its pro visions have been so cautiously framed, and, will bo so prudently executed, that whilst they contri bute to relievo distress, they will tend to preserve order, ami to encourage habits of industry and exertion. I trust likewise that the act which you have passed relating to the composition for tithes in Ireland, will increase the security ol that properly, and promote internal peace. (j lnl lent cll oj the j I'j 7/6 e t f J Commons, I cannot sufficiently thank you for your des patch and liberality in providing for Uie'cxpenses of my household and the niaiiilutnuiice of the ho nor and the dignity of the crown. 1 oiler you rny wannest acknowledgements for the addition which you have made to the income of my belov ed mother, I thank you for the supplies which you have voted for the ordinary public service, as well as lor iho readiness with which you have provided means to meet the extraordinary expenses' *cii dered necessary hy the stale ol my Canadian pos sessions. .!/// L'jrih- ami Grntlnmcn, The many useful measures which you have been ..bio to consider, while the settlement of the civil list and the stale of Canada demanded . o much ol your attention, are a sa’i-bictory pmof of your /.eul for the public good.

Previous to tho opening of tho Liverpool and Maneheslei railway there were no more than 140,000 passengers in (ho year traveiling between the two places by coaches, whereas tho present number, hy railway alone exceeds 600,000. Tho Portuguese Government have had the good fortune to break up a formidable hand of Miguelito insurgents, and to rapture the Guerilla chieftain, Rcnrechido. The man was put to death; hut it seems ho has left behind him a son equally daring and cunning with himself. The Augsburg Gazette of the Ilth August slates,that the Egyptian Government having ml, vertised for sale 10,000 hales of cotton, lit 16 crowns the quintal, no purchasers had offered lo lake any at that price. Ali accordingly resolved on exporting it, at his own expense, to Liverpool, Marseilles, and Trieste. A letter from Constantinople, in the Morning Herald, dated tho 25. h July, gives tho important information that Mr. McNeil, the British envoy lo the Court of Persia, had broken off all com munication with the Shah, and was on his way to Constantinople, there to await further instruc tions. This step was caused by the obstinacy of the Shah, in keeping r:p the war upon Herat, which was believed to ho tho died of Russian influence. A letter from Athens, dated July 27'lh, gives a lamentable account of matters in that kingdom. Tho revenue from the land tax was expected to lie only .£160,000, being a fourth less than that i>( last year. The scarcity of money was beyond description, owing to the. constant drain required for the payment of the foreign troops and oliice holdets. The annua! expenditure was 18 millions of drachmas, giving 21! drachmo-, or 10s. Gd. sterling, per bead as the rate of taxation; but tho actual revenue was only about 0,000,000 francs. The King is declared to ho little hotter than half willed, and enormously extravagant; and to crown ail, the country was infested with bauds of robbers. It was reported at Madd'd on the Oth of August .1— a nc.vii'eu EispanetO e.uu an. ministers had been added. The siege of Morelia was commenced by Ge neral Oraa. Don Carlos was still at Onate; his general in chief, Maroto, was employed in strength ening the defences of lismlia, which Esparlero was preparing to attack. Private letters from Warsaw dated 28th ultimo refer to an extraordinary conspiracy said lo have been delected in the Polish capital—(denounced by the French Government as it was believed) — and to which was attributed the numerous arrests whic h had lately taken [dace in Warsaw and oili er parts of Poland. It was the intention of the conspirators, among whom were several Russian olliccrs, to blow up tho Emperor in the fortress of Doha, to visit which was tire principal object of hisjourney. Advices from Cairo of tiro 2-llh ult. state that reports of a probable war had again circulated in that city, arid that SdOO recruits, who had been in training there during tire last six months, bad suddenly been ordered to march for Hyria, across the desert. Mchemo Ah was still nl Alexandria on the 17lh, hut had sent for tiro steamer Nile, to embark in her, in case any event should render his presence necessary in Sytia. Accounts from Alexandria of the 20lh ultimo were received to day hy way of Trieste. Tho Captain Pasha, who had gone thither to settle the differences between tiro Porto and the Pasha of Egypt, was said to'ho on his return, after obtain ing a satisfactory result through the intervention of tiro Consuls of the principal European Stales, and it wa? expected in consequence that the Tur kish licet, which was at Poras, wailing tire issue, would return to Constantinople. It was known by the letters of lire 17th that the Pasha of Egypt, wire, in his capacity of merchant, lias hcen accu mutating a largo stock of cotton for lire last 18 months, intended at last lo dispose of a portion nl it, but these letters slate that ho was not uhlo lo obtain tho price he demanded, and that ho has determined lo make large shipments for sale in this country. The circumstance, with others, has helped lo establish the belief of the differences with Turkey have been settled, as this slock of cotton was among tho “munitions of war,” hy which an intimation was conveyed to his adver sary that ho was prepared for the worst. Coitx chop ix the West.—After noticing the failure oi the full crop, as set forth in some of the newspapers of tho middle Sluice, the Wabash Courier of the Glh In.-l. says: In this Stale (In. diana) and Illinois, as far us our knowledge ex tends, tho prospects of an abundant corn crop, were never greater, and nothing hut an uncom men early frost can Might tho hopes of the farmer as to this important staple, indeed, this year promises, so far as the West is concerned, to be one of unusual abundance in the production ol all tiro necessaries of life.

The Oazotlo dos Trihuneau.x gives the follow ing story under the title of ‘ Tlie New Casper Hauser,” which is curious if true.—“ The day before yesterday, in consequence of information given by a poor woman named Willand, who, after being nix months in the. Hotel Dieu, was at the point of death, a commissary of the police repaired lo the lodging of her husband, a painter in porcelain, in the rue Popineourt, No. 40. In a dark closet belonging lo Willand’s lodging, he discovered rolled tip, rather than stretched, upon a heap ol damp straw, a young man about ‘JO years of age, whoso haggard countenance, etna- Mated and bent body, and almost powerless limbs, gave proofs ol long suffering, insufficient food, and conOnucd deprivation of fresh air and exer cise. from the various admissions of VVdl.tnd, and flic information collected hy the commissary ol police from tin; other inmates of the house, it appears that this unfortunate youth has been kept a close prisoner, ami subjected to continued ill ircalmoat since the day of his birth. Ho never went oil ol his patents’ room, was never soon by any Imdy, and, in fact, lilsexislenco was never suspected, ibe motive of this horrid treatment lias not transpired.” The Spaniards, in alluding lo the profusion with which dislincl ons are now conferred upon worthless persons, say that “formerly rogues were hung nu crosses, hut now crosses arc hung on rogues,” From Ike Augusta Mirror.
