Death of a Veteran of tiie Last War.—
The London papers record the death of Lieut.
Gen. Proctor, who played such an important
part in the last war between the United States
and Great Britain, having commanded the 82d
regiment at the battle of Fort Erie, and subse-’
quently shared in the campaign along the Niag
ara frontier. He was colonel of the 97 th regi
ment. He died a few days since, at his seat,
in Wales, suddenly, from disease of the heart.—
He had been sixty years in the army. In 1814,
he commanded the 82d regiment before Fort
Erie, from September 2d throughout the succes

The following is an extract from a letter of
the Rev. Tuos. Belsham, dated Hackney, Au
gust 16th, 1805, which contains an account of a
visit which he had just paid to the Duke of
Grafton: “Admiral Cosby told mo one circum
stance, which was curious. When he was
Commander-in-Cliief in the Mediterranean, dur
ing the late war, at the time that we were in
possession of Corsica, and when Sir Gilbert Elli
ott was Governor-General of the Island, General
Paoli introduced Bonaparte, then a young
man, to the Governor and to the Admiral, as a
friend of his, who would be glad to be employed
in the service of England; but these wise
men, not having Lavater’s skill in physiognomy,
rejected the proposal, which obliged Bonaparte
to offer his services to the French; and this
was the rise of Bonaparte’s fortunes. I had
often heard that Bonaparte had offered liis ser
vices to the English and had been rejected, but
I hardly gave credit to it till I learned it from
Admiral Cosby himself.”

The venerable Rembrandt Peale, the painter
of the best portrait of Washington, is at pres
ent on an active summer tour to the Highlands,
Catskill, eta He is now eiglity-two years of
age, is the last surviving painter (from life) of
the world’s greatest man. Washington sat to
him for this now immortal picture, in 1795, at
Philadelphia ; and of the particulars of that sit
ting, he gave us a most interesting account, (at
Idlewild, a day or two since, in passing up the
Hudson,) which we shall write out at our first
leisure, for the gratification of our readers. Mr.
Peal is a beautiful type of calm and dignified
old age. His snow-white hair gives a most ar
tistic setting to his noble features ; and, with his
erect form, courteous demeanor, and undimin
ished vitality of eye and expression, he pre
sents a most worthy casket of the glorious re
membrances interknit with his long life. With
him for a citizen, Philadelphia is like the valley
over which rests the sunset's most golden
cloud. —Home Journal.
Mr. Choate’s debut before a Boston auditory
was on the evening of Thursday, October 23,
1844, on which occasion he delivered the opening
lecture of the Lyceum course. His subject was
the importance of illustrating the history of New
England by a series like the Waverly Novels. —
Ho spoke for an hour and a half with scarce a
recurrence to his notes, and with brilliant suc
cess. He had, prior to this, delivered several
characteristic lectures before the Salem Lyceum,
including one on Poland, while the Polish Revo
lution was exciting so much sympathy in this
country.
The Boston Courier states upon the very best
authority that the enterprise of editing Mr.
Choate’s works, has been undertaken by his
own family, for the benefit of the estate, and
that a complete collection of his various literary
productions will be published at as early a date
as possible, in connection with a biography.—
The Courier adds the hope, that this statement
will serve as a sufficient intimation to any who
might have contemplated the collection of Mr.
Choate’s works as a mere literary speculation,
and that his estate, not of itself large, may thus
have all the benefit of a posthumous publication
of his writings.

DOMESTIC SUMMARY.
Kansas. —The total number of votes, accord
ing to the official returns, cast in Kansas, at the
recent election of Delegates to the Constitution
al Convention, was 13,534, of which 7,374 were
Republican, and 6,155 Democratic. The Demo
cratic majority north of Kansas River was 319 ;
the Republican majority south of that river was
1,538, making the Republican majority in the ter
ritory, 1,219.
The Kansas Constitutional Convention has
nearly completed its labors, and will probably
adjourn to-morrow. The Constitution is radi
cally anti-slavery, but differs from the Leaven
worth instrument, inasmuch as it does not ex
tend the right of suffrage to negroes. The
State Legislature is to consist of seventy-two
Representatives and twenty-one Senators.
Topeka has been selected as the temporary
capital, Lawrence being a competitor for the
honor.
The indications are that the ratification of the
Constitution will be vigorously opposed by the
Democracy, as its strong measures, the annexa
tion of the Platte District, the exclusion of free
negroes, prohibition of bank issues, the preser
vation of the present western boundary, which
includes the gold regions, have all been defeated.
Reported Mexican Expedition. —lt is be
lieved that a very extensive military and promi
nent movement is now on foot in this country,
with the purpose of uniting in a plan for the re
generation of Mexico:
The New York Journal of Commerce has this
additional information in relation to the Ameri
can troops raising for Mexico.
• “Since the publication of our last statement
on this subject, tho plan of organizing the force
has undergone some change. It is now deter
mined to raise only two regiments, each to con
sist of 1,000 men—one from this State and the
other from California. [The latter State is con
sidered the best in the Union for recruiting].
“The commanding officer of this force, Brig.
Gen. Wheat, was a cavalry captain of the Ten
nessee volunteers in tho Mexican war, and took
a conspicious part in Walker’s last attempt
upon Nicaragua. He left this city a day or two
ago in the steamship Marion for Charleston,
whence he will proceed to Yera Cruz, via New
Orleans, in company with a dispatch from tiie
Juarez Government, asking for his presence at
that point as soon as possible. The present ar
rangement is for Gen. Wheat to remain in Mexico
and look after affairs there until the arrival of
the two regiments from the United States, when
lie will assume the command. The regiment
will consist of ten companies.
“It is hoped to have the force ready for mo
tion in about two months. The regiments will
leavo New York and San Francisco simulta
neously, and will meet at Labor Island, or Brazos
Santiago, to organize and drill, preparatory to
entering Mexico as a compact and serviceable
army, to sustain the Juarez Government.”
The New Orleans Picayune says: We are re
quested by Gen. C. R. Wheat to say, with re
gard to a statement that originally appeared in
a New York journal, and which lias been copied
very generally by the press, to the effect that he
has been invited by President Juarez, of
Mexico, to take a column of his countrymen to
aid the Liberal cause, that no such invitation
has been received by him.
California Gold Mines. —The yield of the
gold mines continues as great as ever. Near
two and a half millions of treasure went forward
by last steamer, and not far from two millions
go to day. These facts speak louder and more
potently than all the newspaper articles that
could be written, as to the continued produc
tiveness of the mines. The story is simply and
speedily told. We have a mining region larger
than the whole of Louisiana and Alabama, not a
tithe of which has yet been touched, and nearly
all of which will yield remunerative returns to
the labor of the miner. The population is now
considerably over half a million, of whom a third
are engaged in mining. Then, take into consid
eration the fact that the facilities for producing
and saving the gold have been increased ten
fold within the last five years, so that ground
before considered worthless, now pays well to
work, and it will, in reality, appear that a gene
ration will not make much of a hole in our
mining region. In fact, our mines are mines in
exhaustible.
Extensive gold diggings had been discovered
on Walker's River, which had produced much
excitement in Nevado and Eldorado counties.
The Creek and Cherokee Indians were in open
hostilities in consequence of murders committed
by tho former.
A letter from Superintendent Johnson has
been received at the Indian Bureau, in which,
speaking of the difficulty between the Pawnee
Indians and the citizens of Nebraska, he says
no white person has been killed, but the whites
have killed two Indians and wounded one. the
Indians making no resistance when approached
by the citizens, who were more culpable in pro
ducing the difficulty than the .Indiaus. The
newspaper accounts have been greatly ex
aggerated.
Fight with the Indians. —A letter to the St.
Louis Republican , dated Camp Stockton, July 10,
says:
Capt. Bracket, of the Second Cavalry, United
States Army, had a fight a short time since with
a party of Indians near the Rio Grande, in which
he defeated them, killing two, and wounding
several more. He was obliged to get provis
ions for his men, and from there to Presidio del
Norte. At the latter place the Mexicans killed
one of his men—a private, named John J. Stan
der. Corporal Gaftiney was wounded at Las
Limpias, and Private Amer died of sun-stroke.
After his first scout, Capt. Bracket went out
again after a large party of Indians, but did not
succeed in finding their trail. Lieut. Owens ac
companied the Captain on his first scout. This
company has done a great deal of sendee along
the Rio Grande and on the El Paso Road.
The Treaty with China. —lnformation has
been received at the Department of State to the
effect that the proper steps have been taken by
the Chinese government to carry into effect the
arrangements made by ex-Minister Reed for tho
payment of the various claims of American citi
zens, amounting to about $700,000.
St. Louis, July 9.—The express from Denver
city arrived hero last night, having left on the
20th. The mines continued to yield well, and
new deposits were constantly developing. Mauy
miners were compelled to quit work, owiug to
the scarcity of water. A company had com
menced the construction of a flume eleven miles
long, to convey water to the neighborhood of
the mountain city.
Utah. —Papers to June 20th have been re
ceived from'Great Salt Lake City. In the
opinion of the best farmers there will not be over
half of an average crop raised this season in the
Territory. The grass-hoppers and crickets were
making great liavoa In the Tabernacle, on the
26th ult., Elder Orson Hyde spoke of the saving
policy of Joseph in storing up the grain of Egypt
against the seven years of famine, and argued
that, inasmuch as a sore famine was foretold to
come to pass in the present generation, it be-
hooved the Saints to take care of and begin at
once to store up their grain.
Brigham Young had delivered a funeral dis
course over his sister, in the Tabernacle, closing
as follows: “ God bless you ! When I have
the power, I will bless you so effectually that
you will not be afflicted by the devil as you are
now; amen.”
Thousands of emigrants were on their way
from the States, via Pike’s Peak, to California,

laid over for a year, and Minister Lamar is on
his way home. Sir Wm. Gore Ousley was at

FOREIGN SUMMARY.
The Royal Mail Steamship Europa, from Liv
erpool 10 A. M., 16th inst., arrived at Halifax
at 1 P. M. yesterday, the 26th.
An order of the day, published at Verona, says
Austria commenced the war for the maintenance
of sacred treaties, relying on the devotedness of
the people, the bravery of the army, and her
natural allies. Not having found allies, Austria
yields to an unfavorable political situation.
The Paris Moniteur publishes a proclamation
by the Emperor' announcing to his soldiers tiie
basis of peace. It is to the following effect:
“The principal aim of the war is obtained, and
Italy will become for the first time a nation.—
Venetia, it is true, remains to Austria, but will
nevertheless be an Italian province, forming part
of the Itatian Confederation. The union of
Lombardy with Piedmont creates for us a power
ful ally, who will owe to us its independence.—
The Italian governments which have remained
inactive, or which have been called back into
their possessions, will comprehend the necessity
of salutary reforms. A general amnesty will
obliterate the traces of civil discord.
Italy, henceforth mistress of her destinies, will
only have herself to accuse should she not pro
gress regularly in order and freedom. You will
soon return to France. A grateful country will
there receive with transports those soldiers who
have raised so high the glory of our arms at
Montebello, Palcstro, Tnrbigo, Magenta, Marig
nano, and Solferino! who in three months have
freed Piedmont, and have only stopped because
the contest was about to assume proportions no
longer in keeping with the interests that France
had in this formidable war. Bo proud, then, of
your successes, proud of the results obtained,
proud especially of lieing the well beloved child
ren of that France who will always be the Great
Nation, so long as she shall have the heart to
comprehend the noble causes, and men like your
selves to defend them.
(Signed) Napoleon.
“Vallegio, July 12th.”
The preliminary conditions of the treaty of
peace are thus announced in the official Aus
trian Correspondence: Austria and France will
support the formation of the Italian Confedera
tion to which she accedes. Lombardy, as far as
the line of the Miucio, is to be given up. Man
tua, Peschiera, Borgoforte, and the whole of
Venetia remain Austrian possessions. The
Princes of Tuscany and Modena are to return
to their States. A universal amnesty-is granted.
Tiie Vienna correspondent of the London
Times says that three applications were made to
the Emperor of Austria before he would consent
to an armistice.
Overtures were made direct by Napoleon for
the purpose of preventing the mediation of
neutrals.
The King of Sardinia had issued the following
proclamation to the people of Lombardy:
“ Heaven has blessed our arms, with the
powerful aid ofour magnanimous and valiant ally.
We arrived in a few days after victory—upon
victory, at the banks of the Mincio. To-day I come
back among you to tell you that Heaven has
granted your wishes. An armistice, followed
by the preliminaries of peace, assure the people
of Lombardy of their independence. Accord
ing to your desire, many times expressed, you
will henceforth form, with our ancient State,
one single and free family. I take your destiny
under my direction, and hope to find in you that
concurrence which the chief of a State needs in
order to create a new administration. I tell
you, people of Lombardy, trust in your king,
and let the government be established on a solid
and imperishable basis. Ho will procure happi
ness for the new country which Heaven has en
trusted to his government.
Victor Emmanuel.”
News from Milan of the 13th states that the
King of Sardinia arrived there in the evening,
amid the plaudits of the populace. His Majesty
subsequently presented himself in the balcony i
of the hotel, and was greeted with warm ac- j
clamations of “ Viva il re /”
j Farther Point— -{Off Quebec.) —July 29.
| The steamship Anglo-Saxon has arrived. There
j w as nothing additional known in regard to the
; basis of peace. The discontent was apparently
! increasing, and particularly in Italy.
Napoleon had arrived at St. Cloud.
The Queen of Portugal, Maria Da Gloria, is
! dead.
! The representatives of France, Austria, and
Sardinia, will shortly convene to conclude a
' treaty. The Emperors ignore any neutral inter
i vention.
i Important dispatches from Lord Palmerston,
i dated June 22d, have found their way into print
They strangely urge Russia to remain neutral.
The leading English papers, including the
j London Post, attack the treaty.
There is great agitation "at Florence. The
provisional government has issued a proclama
tion acknowledging the treaty, but the Tuscan
Government and people object to being replaced
under Austrian influence.
A corps of fifty thousand French troops will
remain in Italy until the re-organization of the
country.
The most important towns in the Roman
States had sent deputations to Garibaldi.
- Modeno and Parma are said to be in a state of
revolt
The Austrian troops keep their position as if
j there had been do declaration of peace.
The Times' correspondent says that peace pro
duced the greatest exasperation and defection at
Turin. The Emperor was accused of being a
i traitor to Italy, and his reception was very cold.
The Conference at Zurich will meet in about
\ a week. It is thought that Sardinia will not be
! represented.
It is supposed that a European Congress will
meet after the close of the Congress for Peace.
The people of Tuscany have shown strong
hostility to the return of the Grand Duke.
By the Turin correspondent of the Daily
News the Piedmontese are described as being a
prey to grief and stupor, in consequence of the
peace, which leaves Sardina without a fortified
frontier.
The Opinione of Turin does not conceal the dis
satisfaction with which it sees Venice remain in
the hands of Austria. It attributes Count Ca
vour’s resignation to the insufficiency of the
terms of peace.
Turin, July 19.—A Ministry has been formed.
The Minister of War and President of the Coun
cil is Gen. Della Marmora,' the Minister of For
eign Affairs is Gen. Dabormeni, and the Minister
of the Interior is Signor Rattazi.
The government of Lombardy has cautioned
editors against invectives in regard to recent
events, and recommends them to assume senti
ments of moderation, under pains of suppression
| or suspension.
Prussia. —The following order of the day to
the army, has been published:
“At the moment the war broke out betwee n
the two neighboring great powers, I had ordered
J the army to be placed in readiness for war, in
j order to maintain that position of power which
i belongs to Prussia. The danger which threat
ened us, then, is over. While you were st ill
marching to occupy the positions I had ordered
for you, the belligerent powers concluded peace.
Your advance has shown our firm resolution to
maintain our frontiers and those of Germany in
violate. Whatever might be the destinies of
war, you have shown the readiness I expected
from you, and have maintained, in general, a
dignity worthy of Prussia. You have made
many personal sacrifices, and I express to you
my full satisfaction.
“Signed, The Prince Regent of Prussia.”
The Prussian Gazette says: General Field
Marshal Wrangel has been relieved from the
command-in-chief of the army, which was to
have been concentrated on the Rhine.
Fraxce. —The Emperor arrived at St. Cloud
on Sunday morning, the 17th inst. The Em
press witli the Imperial Prince, and the ladies
and officers of the household, were in waiting to
receive him. For more than an hour, at the
railway station, the little Prince wore hi 3 cor
poral’s uniform, and had a laurel crown in his
hand ready to give his father on "liis arrival.—
As soon as the Emperor arrived, he kissed the
Empress, then took the Imperial Prince in his
arms, and held him for some minutes. He after
ward gave his arm to the Empress, and proceed
ed in a carriage to the chateau. At noon, the
Emperor attended Mass, and immediately after
received his Ministers.
The Emperor Napoleon had received the con
gratulations of the diplomatic corps at the French
Court. The Papal Nuncio was of course accord
ing to custom, the spokesman of the united corps
of Foreign Representatives.
Great Britain. —The Duke of Somerset said
the expediency of entering into arrangements
for arming Ocean Mail Steamers had been under
consideration, but as the Committee of Naval
Officers, in 1852, reported against such a mea
sure on the ground of expense, nothing had
been done. A general survey had, however,
been recently ordered of steam tugs and other
vessels employed at the mouths of rivers, in
order to ascertain how far they might be ren
dered available for defensive purposes.
In the Houso of Commons considerable pro
gress was made in the Army and Navy Esti
mates. In regard to the former, Mr. Sidney
Herbert explained the present military position
of the country and measures of defence. He
expected one hundred Armstrong guns would
be made this year, and two hundred before the
end of the financial year.
On the 15th, in both Houses, reference was
made to the treaty of peace. Lord Derby point
edly enquired if the King of Sardina was a party
to the treaty, for it was understood that the
Emperor of the French was his ally, not the
principal in the quarrel
Prussia. —The Prussian Gazette says that
in consequence of the treaty of peace, orders
had been transmitted to the troops on the
march to halt at the respective places where
they happen to be; also that the proposal made
by the Prussian ambassabor to the Federal
Diet, in regard to the Federal troops, had, under
present circumstances, been withdrawn by the
Prussian Government.

Mr. Bruce, who, w ith Admiral Hope, proceeds
northward very shortly. Nothing is yet known
as to the intentions of the French Minister, who
is at Macao. It is understood that the English
aud American Ministers will proceed to Pekin, an
it is hoped their reception will be a friendly one.

had been more active. Tea was firm but quiet
in all the markets.
The American steamers Mississippi, Pow
hattan, and “Toewan,” were at Shanghae.
