With a view to et-eking out a joint report I fre. quently called toile Mr. Ball, the State Treasnrer for the purpose of consultation, and submited to him all papers of calculation and' approximate es titnatettand earnestly' desired such a censotration and comparison of opinion as would enable us to &Omit to your Excellency a joint report. I found. -however, an indisposition on his part to consult on the subject and a desire that we shotild make sop male reports. ' After laborious invesitation of the several rev enue laws, and the receipts under them for a seri es of years—and by instituting acomparison—with proper consideration of the probable receipts under the late•enactments, and the amonnermpaid of the appropriations of last -session, and the probable amount thereof the Treasurer would be called up on to pay before the'first of February sex—l thus, mature reflection ascertained that it was reason able to estimate that there would be an excess in the State Treasury on the first of February 1850, after. aying the imerest on the public debt. then falling duo, 09152,729 13—and acccinlingly made such eitimatei'and officially notified your excellen cy hereof. The State Treasurer saw the statement before I handed- it to the secretary of the Commonwealth— was present when I handed it to that officer, and did not redo his report for Several hoofs after, as the Secretary informed me. " fle also knew that my report was to be transmitted to your Excellen cy hy the mine mail that conveyed his, both of which were received by you on the same day, as 'appears by your official notification tp the Board of Canal Commissioners, which you say, "Having received this day per mail from the State Treasur er anti Auditor General two several statements of the present condition of the Treasury troni,both of which it , wiU appear that alter the payment of inte rest due on the public debt and the liquidation and payment of other claims for which appropriations hare been made by the Legislature and retaining a reasonable balance in the Treasury, there is the mm of cone hundred and fifty thousand dollars which may be safely applied to the completion of the North Branch canal." It is strange indeed that theStaie Treasurer should make a statement to your excellency calchlated to mislead the public in reference - to so importart a subject and fo induce the belief that I had reported a less sum than was required to authorize the com mencement of the work. He knew that agreeably to the reports made by each of us, that the Wei re /aired...that the work should- be commenced, and it was made the duty of your Excellency to notify the Canal Commissioners thereof,-iihoere duty it shall be to place under contract a corresponding amount of work." And yet With - a 101 l knowled ge ol the fact that I had reported an uaappropriated balance in the Treasury sufficient in amount to au . toriiie the commencement of the work—he says in his official communication " Under the circum• stances, I deem it my duty to lay before you fore: going statement exhibiting, the unappropriated bal ance in the treasury, in order that you may take such action in the premises as in your wisdom may be best for theinterest of the State." I am not able to perceive that any state of 'r cir cumstances" existed that required the exercise of the Wisdom of your excellency. No discretionary power was conferred. Thr state Treasurer and-Au ditor General hating cfficially reported that there would be an vmpropriated balance in the Treasury exceeding SlsB,ooo,•that being thesum required by the law to authorize the commencement of the work, what other " action" could you take than simple to comply . with the law by notifying the Canal Commissioner* of the tact that the State Trait:net and Auditor General had reported that thereVonld be iamb in the Tteristiry, after pay ment of the interest on the state debt falling duo On the first of February 1850, and. all other demands, sufficient to authorize and . require the work to be commenced. .1 have thought it proper to make this communication to prevent a misapprehension of my views.

On an examination of, or informal conversation with, cot 4ln of the Officers concerned in the expe dition, they stated to the District their readiness to abandon it; they supposed it was in tended for Cuba. Gen.

Ferry. The New Orleans was fitted np for a trans: port shipl had accommodations for 600 to $0 pas sengers. i One of the returned volunteers tells the editobs of the PhiladelpNia Ledger, that he and six others from that city were promised el,OOO, " and plenty of plunder."

"The Sea Gull was found lying at cluarantine,. and the men put on board.

The revenue; cutter visited the vessel but could discover noth ing." , The New Orleans packet Union; with men on, board, has already sailed, it is believed, for Cuba.: Whether the proceedings of our District Attorney will derange operations remains to be seen. The delay which has taken place in the sailing of the Expedition has been caused by the failure of anticipated remittances. Probably but for this; the vessels would have been off before the Gov:. ernment was ready to arrest them. Free vessels cannot be libeled, but there 14 6 ' an act of Congress, under which they can be detained at the pleasure of the President until the suspicioui circumstances are explained. . Six warrants have been issued against individn- Ma supposed to be connected with this affair, (Ed ward Weir, Pigot, Clark, Marriott. McFallan,) bin only one has yet been arrested. He was held to bail in *5.000, which he gave and was discharged. Probably Government will be content with break ing up the expedition, and should the protect be permanently abandoned, the law will not be enfor -.ed against the parties implicated. Excitement In Clubs. Nair Oatcass, Wednesday, Sept. 5 By Ihe arrival of the Royal Mail Steamship Se rem at Mobile, we tire in possession of dates from Havana to the 29th ott. Letters published in the Delta states that the greatest excitement prevails throughout the Island. The Captain• General had called out a fotce of 4,000 men and had sect large bodies of troops to Principe. Trinidad. and to Sarni ago de Cuba which towns it was rumored were in a state of insurrection. - The English Consul had written to Jamacia for the Governor to send more ships for the protection of British interest and property. The Captain-Ge. neral had forbid the delivery of New Orleans pa. pars from the Post r)ffice. The papers say nothing of the insurrection, and attribute the military move, menu' to the reception of the Presiden'ts Proelarna;. non and the feajs of the expedition against Cuba. Tim Ouse Illiteked at Dull& Island. The following is the coreespondenee between Commamter Torrins an.! the assemblage of Men at Round/Island, below New Orleans. The. arti cle from the Delta we think properly denounces it. The letter beam date Aug. 29, and says: • I am directed by the officer in command of the Naval forces assembled in this neighborhood, to call year-attention to the proclamation of the Presi dent of the Republic, made with regard to the ex pedition for which you are assembled, and I warn you to disperse at once, or abide thecettain inflic tion of the penalty of the Jaw.

The Generat said he _ had been entirely misrepresented by Mr. Giddings in this particular—that the first intimation he had of influeneing members of Congress was conveyed to him in the published charge of Mr. Giddings.

The New-Or/sans Bee of the 20th ult. says; A short time previous to The departure of the ' Salvador* tram Havana, our Consul, Gen.

The Conde de Al coy was at first loth to yield, and asked for time to deliberate. This was granted and at the expira tion of some days the COilflii and Dr. Gage again visited the Captain General, and after much con versation of an earnest and very serious character, His Excellency concluded to accede to the demand. It is shrewdly surmised that the Count of .Aicoy's determination was considerably quickened in Cal deron de la Barest, Minister Plenipotentiary from Spain, at Washington, in which that functionary ad vised His Excellency to furrendet Rey. to the au thorities of the United States. Rey persistedi n declaring that he was forcibly abducted. Upon landing, ho was disposqd to tat loudly and be rather noisy, and when his friends requested him to subdue- his excitement, he an swered that he was in a land of freedom, and had no garrote to fear for speaking his mind. His sto ry, as stated to his friends here, and by them cir culated throughout the city, is to the same -effect as hisletter to - our Consul at Havana, in which he solemnly averred that he had been kidnapped and carried off against his will.

Bey, of John Howard Payne, our former consul. During the last !piing, instructions were sent to our consul, to-demand payment of the. claim,. and proper atonement for the insolfjo the' Amerman flag. -Morgan visited the Bey in the Steamer Missis ippi.
