Grant's headquarters show that the present expenditures in prosecuting the Indian War. are fully one million - dollars per - week. In case it is determined to inaugurate a vigorous campaign, expenditures will soon be needed to meet the wants of the increased force of about five millions per week. Thus far, since the trouble began, every Indian killed has cost the Government one million dollars, and the lives of about ten white men. The Commisgioner of Indian Affairs Is very anxious that Congress shall give him authority to send a Commission to treat with the tribes, as his information leads Lim to believe firmly that the difficulties can be settled by such a Commission within three months. As Congress at the last session passed an act for bidding the sending out of any Commission until the money had been expressly appropriated, ca. Taylor cannot move In the matter. The Immense expense of the war is having weight with Sena tors, and it is probable that the resolutions re 6tricting the work of the session may be sus pended to consider several points connected with Indian affairs; among others, that of raising two or three regiments of mounted men west of the ever. ONE ITTLNDRED SIM'S LOST IN TIIE WHITE SEA. —The London papers publish despatches from •St. Petersburg, dated on the 27th of June, giving accounts from Archangel of the destruction of shipping in the White.Sca, by the breaking up of the ice, from which it is inferred that the loss has been much greater than was previously reported. !dorc than one hundred ships were lost and the crews were in a desperate. position on the coat of Lapland, while some were on the drifting floes of ice. Lord Stanley, British Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, received a despatch from Sir A. Buchanan, Minister at St. Petersburg. con ! . firming the sad news, and stating that ho has re .quested the Russian government to render assist ance•to the crews drifting on the ice, but it ap pears there is only one small steamer available at Archangel. Orders 'have been despatched from the Foreign Office to the British Consuls at Co penhagen and Stockholm, and to St. Petersburg, with instructions to pbt themselves in communi cation with the government authorities of Sweden and other places northward, in order that all im mediate assistance should be, sent to the ship-_ wrecked crews. , JOHN STUART MILL,. ON GAME.—Mr. Mill is no of game preserving. In a recent speech before the National Reform Union, in -Loudon, .be observed: "The landlords would get on much better with the laborers were it not. for the ac cursed subject of game. Such was the state of• feeling that had taken possession of the lauded interest on the subject of, game,that he could not conceive of any agricultural laborer choosing to be represented by any man who kept a game-. keeper." This was a hard blow at aristocratic privilege, and it was natural that the working men, who formed the larger part of Mr: Mill's audience, received the sentiment with load cheers. The Chinese claim that for fully five thousand years they have made pottery and porcelain. Everybody knows that pottery was made in Egypt, Assyria. and Babylon. and among the relies of Pompeii, lierculaneum and ancient Mex ico. there are none more interesting than the rare specimens of the ceramic art that have from time to time been unearthed from their ancient rest in ,places. Scriptures arc full of allusions. to pottery and the potter's craft, and the mind becomes bewildered with the details of Etruscan and lii*:vres wares . and of the trials of "Palissy, the Potter," and Josiah Wedgewood in their praiseworthy efforts to produce por celain in France and England. We also have bad some American efforts in the manu facture of porcelain: but the long experience of European and Chinese potteries t and cheap labor, have proved to be obstacles that our Ameri can manufacturers could not contend with; and our experiments in the way of porcelain ntanufac ture. have„thcrefore,_not_resul Led 7irigreat—suc:;.- cesses. The trouble was that our American manurae turers of this elegant and taseful ware did not rely sufficiently- upon the resoUreeS of their own mechanical and scientific skill, and "begin at tha beginning:" but they followed in the old beaten track which bad been pm sued since the days of Confucius and the Pharoabs. They hatrtheir "wheel" and their "throwings;" their "paste - left to season and digest a year or two before it was used: their , making - up. into moulds Which were liable to twist and warp in drying, and finally all the risks and perils of the 12.1 king oven. It was left for a scientific, Phila delphian In this period of grace to take a short cut around all these difficulties and to produce poretlain with just the tame: rapidity that glass wsruP prodixed. and with precisely - the same rtainty as to boss the venture will turn out. Our inventor fuses las porcelain material just as the glass-blower prepates /J material, and he you out the daintiest egg-shell tea up, the most elegant vase, a set of tiles, a fluted coiumn, or an architectural ornament with entire enrtainty and unerring despatch.' The necessary ann6ilithing and polishing only arc re quired to lit articles for market, and they can he put in the hands of the consumer when under the old SyMilil the moulder would be at work shaping oat his articles and preparing them for, the kiln. To develop this novel innovation upon old ;nodes of manufacturing articles of universal utility amid use, a company has been formed. It fis styled "The American Hot-cast Porcelain Company." It has its office, laboratory and ...,temporary manufaetory on Walnut =tiers; below Thirty-first street; West Philadelphia. We paid a visit to this establish within a day or two, and examined' its various pri , ductS. There were all articles of household crockery that arc usually made of porcelain— uni,s. saucers, mugs. pitchers, plates, vases, bot tles, ehlinneys and shades for- gas-lights or oil lamps: knobs, escutcheons and plates for, doors; slabs for table and bureau tops; flower-pots; and so on in endless variety. But what impressed us as the most important feature of the products of the works was what we I.:ill call "architectural porcelain." It must first be understood that the material is mePed atone of the finest quality, in which flint has a very large share. After being restored to almost its original condition by cooling, the articles pro duced have all the qualities of strength, imper- VhISIMSS to the weather, &c., possessed by na tural stone of the finest and toughest texture. In appearance it so closely resembles Italian marble that the keenest judge could not detect the difference. This material the CoMpany works up into columns, dressings and s=hirts for trouts of buildings, from pavement to connect steps, sills, door-frames, and, in fact, almost everything that can he made in marble, stone or iron. Then for inside work it furnislte's wash boards and wainscotting, mantels, wash-stands, brackets, columns, cornices, and everything usually made 01 marble or plaster. The tiles. &c., made by the'hot casting process have exactly the appearance of the finest mar ble; it is susceptible of the most exquisite polish, and it is claimed for it that it possesses greater strength and durability than the . natural marble. The casting of stone for architectural purposes has long been a problem that has exercised the shrewdest mechanics -and the molt scientific chemists. Its importance in the wa of increas ing- the SUM total of human comfort, adding ele gance to our homes. and furnishing the thousand and one things usually made of marble or por celain at a cheap rate, can scarcely be overesti mated. The Chinese have for ages used porce lain as a material for building. and its durability has been tested by an experience of centu ries in pagodas, temples. towers, &c., but there is a wide diffirrenee in favor of our new American porcelain in the fact that Chinese porcelain is simply baked clay, enameled with porcelain, while the hot-cast porcelain is solid enamel from the heart to the surface. The officers of the company that has taken this important enterprise in hand are practical builders, architects and scientific men. The works are under the superintendence of Messrs. Waldron J. Cheyney and Emil F. theterichs. To these gentlemen the world is mainly indebted for an advance step in the practical arts that will revolutionize many import: nt interests. 111 Et nJ. I:. :qorri.,.. in HINES a: surAn Capitulation of the City—A Seventy nine bays' Siege. [Correspondence of the New York Tlmer.l CITY OF MENIcO, Thursday, June 20, 1867. Determined to be an eye-witness of all that was to transpire during the ceremony of the surren der, I proceeded to the Chapultepec road this morning, in company with another correspon dent. As we had learned at Tabera's headquar ters, after closing our correspondence last night, that the conference for the surrender would cer tainly take place at Chapultepec, and that Ta bera and staff would go out by the Maximilian road, which leads directly to the foot of the cas tle. At daybreak Tabera, Quiroga,O'Horan, Andrade, Baron Tindale, Prince Kwanaughla and their aids made their appearance at the fortifications built on that--road } -about 100 rods from the city limits. They then dismounted, and a courier with a nag of truce was sent for ward to the Liberal fortifications, which wore about 2.00 rods further on, with a list of those who had conic to Join in the conference. He soon returned with the information that Tabera alone would meet Gen. Diaz at Chapultepec as soon as possible. After a short consultation General Tabera proceeded on horseback and alone to the Liberal intrenehments, where he dismounted and took a seat in a coach sent for his use. He pro ceeded immediately to the castle, and was in On forence with Diaz nearly two hours. He returned to , the city, arriving at his private residence at 10.1 A A. M. The armistice would be over at 4P. M., yet all the morning no one - was informed CASTING PORCELAIN. PIEXICO.

Thou sands-of the citizens; on foot and in coacher*. pro ceeded to the front. Soldiers, especially the French and Auatrian' troops, were seen to lease their quarters by squads. Demoralization had evidently set in among the troops of the garrison. The United States Consul, in a coach, was seen. to pass the lines at 5 P. M. for 'D1:17:6 camp. Ile shortly returned, and as soon as he was this side of the trenches of the Imsterialista, the Republican banner was 'unfurled on the Castle of Chapultepec; and in five minutes' time a bombardment of the city was opened which has no parallel In the siege of the city. The thousands of citizens who bad gone to the front rushed panic-stricken into the heart of the capital, many soldiers accompanying them. Shells fell in all.parts, and bombs burst over the stricken population by the hundreds. Tabera immediately sent out orderlies in all directions lor his generals. A junta do yverra, council of war, was called at Lis house, and decided within ten minutes' time to surrender the capital at dis cretion to the hero of Oajaca and. Puebla. White flags were again raised. and the bombardment_ ceps( d after about i - ihour's duration. There have been no citizens on the street since it was know that thegarrison had capitulated. Soldiers of the Imperial army have been shed ding their military clothes for those of the gal zeta.. 'Muskets and swords are- lying about. usually left at the doors of the Citizens. Officers are elimiging their quarters, and thousands are retiring to houses, of friends to lie still for a few. days.

[From El Pajuro Rojo, Me:Oco, Juno 25.1 We had scarcely cast off the yoke 'of Euro pean intervention—thanks only to our 61Vn strength, our own courage, our own fidelity and ohr own republican pride—when called upon to repulse a new attempt at intervention on the part of the greatest Power on this continent. , It is true that this latter attempt does not shim in the same light as the attempt made -by the French, for it is certain that it comes from a friendly sister-nation, whose interest in the pre servation of our political existence is very great. However, thotigh the attempt be skillfully cloaked in diplomatic formulas, and though we look upon it as growing out of a feeling of kindness, it is evident that it is the intention of the American authorities to force precepts upon our own government in relation to its internal politics . , and cciiperate in the exercise of rights which are the sole property of the nation. Our feelings in the matter ought to be readily excited, however insignificant the attach: may seem, and however friendly .the assailant may be, for the influence of a party coming from the other side of the'sea is as baneful to the indepen dence of Mexico as The influence comkug from the other side of the Bravo. The terms in which is couched Mr. Campbell's note dated April 15, and addressed to the "Min isteref Foreign Affairs of, the lleptiblic," are not in strict unison with the circumspect and mode rate style originally adhered to by the framers of friendly diplomatic documents. ••They seem the mole imperious and high-sounding from the fact that the sentences comprised in the document can be regarded as constituting a warning ut tered by a friendly nation. • If to the facts above stated be added the well known precedent of the note of the Austrian. Minister Wydenbruek, bearing the same date,our view of the affair will not be proved incoriect. In that note are to be found the following phrases, the significance of which : , is apparent : " We hesitate less (said the Austrian Minister to Mr. Seward) to have recourse to you because we . not only have the utmost confidence In thefriend7 ship of the American GovernMent, but because your Government , appears to have the right to ask Juarez to respect his prisoners of war, inas much as the greater, part of the triumph of the Liberal party in Mexico is due to the moral sup port of the American Government": On the tezatig.titat BentrAci3,,Audtakiiig-moit- OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. to President Juarez, proMptly and earnestly, its desire.. that In case of the capture of the Prlnce Maximilian and his supporters, they may receive the humane treatment accorded by civilized nations to prisoners of war." This paragraph needs no comment. It is a de cree in all its transparence and bitterness, Without any attempt on the part of Mr. Campbell to em bay it in a friendly and courteous manner. Ah! We who hale exposed our livel not to see our selyes treated thus by Frenchmen and tyrants, we buffer at reading this. - We have always believed, and. now believe, more than ever, that the, time is. passed when foreign Ministers are to be allowed to use such feudal expressions when communicating with our Goverument,and littering a threat in the first phrase. WI believe that a nation that has fought like ours has acquired the right to be respected by the powerful, when she herself is a Power. We believe that me are now in a period of great ness and majesty, and that We must reply to other:, in the same tone in which they address us, and greet with a smile of disdain the threats that last year made us tremble and give explanations. What! the American Government has been dis turbed by the executions of the filibusters cap tured at San Jacinto? The emotion is rather un timely. We cannot share its tender feelings be cause the land the filibusters invaded Ts our own country: because the invaders sacrificed during their piratical war our own brothers: because our dearest interests would be imperiled if they went unpunished.- The Government of the Unirat- States. as an unimpassioned foOker-on. has been disturbed by our ma ssies and misfortunes. We who are actorsin this drama have a different,feeliug in the matter. •will otu l justice stem the current of the sym pathy of the Government? The time would be well suited for such a loss. We could' dispense with its sympathy as we dispensed with that of the whole world awing five years. They say to us that Ave must throw open our sanctuary of justice, that a magistrate of the United States may take his scat on the bench, in, order that we may lay at his feet our sacred laws. This, that the American magistrate, to whoin it matters not what we have endured, may set free in cold blood the usurpers, the filibusters and live hundred traitors to their country, who have drenched the land whieli gave them birth with gore. This would not be absurd, but ridiculous, and if our victories have raised us to a higher place in the opinion of. the civilized world, one single act of weakness of the kind would make us lose • the position we have conquered. • The punishment of the guilty ones is the pri vate and inalienable right of a nation. In mat ters of internal legislation, no right of action should be conceded to others, whether friends or brothers. - What would the American Government say If we were to demand that Jefferson Davis and his accomplices be decapitated; founding our claims on the fact that secessionists took care to recog nize the empire, sympathize with the European interventionalists and made war upon the Mexi can republicans?' We should like to see the ob jections of Mr. Seward. The United States must have had a poor idea of Mexican dignity to have ever conceived the idea of wielding any influence over our inter nal polities. Our Government must be just. Its energy in the late i 3 truggle Is a, sufficient guarantee of the energy it will display in this its hour of victory. Educated and free nations, not withstanding the assurance of Mr. Campbell, salute our triumph with enthusiasm. The laws of the nation must form au inviolable code, and the governing citizens must make it a rule of coliduct to bow to them. The nation, meantime, is confident and hopeful. June 2, 18&7.

Mr. Campbell says—"The' Government of the United States has observed with ;much satisfac tion the withdrawn of the French expeditionary forces in Me.

ALARM The larget portion of the troops here, and there are sonic 88.000, are to be ordered off to the North as soon as paid in part for arrears due. Great alarm is felt that Juarez may be captured by Ortega's forces, whom we hear is at the head of a forminable army, approaching on Zacatecas from Monterey. This may be a false alarm, yet many are disturbed.by it. One thing is certain, that all the Imperial party have determined to side with Gonzales Ortega. Cortina, with 3,000 men, is to march northward to-night. Rumor says that Canales is beseiging Mattimorits.
