Messrs. Burke Eyster and Snowden were counsel for the -relaters; and Messrs. Bigham, Knox, Wills and Foster for the respondents. or prosecutors. After:the reading of the- warrants, and'the Act of the Assembly, and the information upon which they were founded, and sonic arguments of coun sels, the. Judge decided that he would go into an invesiigation of the. facts of the case so' far as to determine'if they showed probable cause for sup posing -that the offence charged had been commit-1 ted, or exhibited an offence coming within the! provision of the Act of Assembly, upon the 4th section of which the prosecution declared their in- tention to rely. Air.Eystet 'asked for the discharge of Johnson, on the ground that no oath was made against him, and then read' the information, in which his name Aloes not appear. iiisHonor, Judge Low nt E, decided that The merits of the case should be entered into; Mr; EySter then made a statement of the cir cumstances of the affair at the Monongahela House, acid called J.S. Johnson, one of the relators, as a witness in the case of Lloyd Logan. Objection was made by Commonwealth's counsel, on the ground, that he was tt party interested. Objection 'overruled. Mr. Hugh Cr 01 4 ,, (a. going witness,) was sworn. Abont,ll or 12 o'clock, his morning, was passing the Monongahela Home, and beard a noise; passed on towards the steam boat ; saw a crowd coming:up towards the Monongahela House, mostly black folks. When I came back from the bdat, I heard some of the blacks say, "They can't take him." I went up stairs; there was noise; heard. the cry of “murder;" Thise men, (John son and Kramer,) I saw with the black boy (the elave); I did not see Logan there; Kramer and Johnson- said they Would not hurt him. They spoke in a peaceable manner; did not behave vio lenily; acted like officemdoing duty. They bro't thebeY dosin Stairs; Johnson was struck by some one, but made no resistance ; the boy escaped some how in the crowd. I asked Kramer what the fuss was; be said a slave of Logau's had run 011 and they had got him, but he was rescued: Did not seeLogan.dtiring the affair; I think a colored man struck Johnson. I WAS acquainted wish Logan in Frederick, Va. Cron Erartiined.—lt was but a few . minutes from the time I first heard the noise, till I returned from the boat: i think not ten.

Crosson, sworn.—At about 11 o'- ' clock,, this morning, I heard a noise up stairs, in the Monongahela Home; ran up stairs thinking the house was on fire; found a colored mail in possession of these Men (Kramer and Johnson,) understood hs was arunaway slave belonging to a gentleman in the house; I said he must leave; Logan asked the negro if he would'nt like to go Horne and see his wife and child; I sent a servant to get an officer; they soon went out; the negro was put out; one of these gentlemen was struck. The Crowd in the street secured the boy. These men behaved peaceably; said the bry should not be hurt. Mr. Logan did not lay hands - on him; there was no'noise until the crowd rushed in, I think; there were no weapons used. Cross Examined.—The negro, Lockhart, does not belong to the - Monongahela House. The dis turbance was in the third story. These three gen tleman arrived at the House late last night.

But the most of the church. es and extensive buildings are, as I believe, made of sea shells cemented with oil, pitch or plaster, and it seems to be full of domes, piers and steeples, and as these appear most generally. a, where men do congregate for worship," one would suppose they were very holy, and they may be so for all I know to the contrary; but do not think churches are safe criterions to go by, or else our old smoky' Pitt would be among the best in the world for pure, holy, devout, religious - Sentiments, when it is well known there arc many, very many, not a whit better than they.should be. Vera Cruz is indeed a very pretty place at the distance of of a mile. the nearest view I have had, except *hen I peered over a bell just at the gates. It looks splendid, and almost seems a pity.to demolish those costly edifices. She having offered to capitulate but re-' fused to include the castle, Gen, Scott would not accede unless the castle was included;' so for the last two weeks we have been cutting our way round the city. They tried to impede us by send ing out cavalry and dragoons,lut we flogged them most unmercifully, and they fell back on their 24 pounders and bombs. By the way, these shells have done us more injury than any other weapon which they use. Night before last one man was killed ; , possibly two, but one had his head cut en , rtirely off with a piece of shell ; another bad his' arm cut off in like manner, and it was reported yesterday that Gen. Worth bad been injured. Ido I not believe this can be true, and do not so state it. The General has been here with part of his force .for about a week. Of Gen. Taylor we know but little—that little, however, is always good. Last accounts from him were, that he had a battle at; San Luis Potosi, had lost 700 men, and killed 40001 of the enemy, and afterwards sent word to Santa Anna to come back and bury the dead, that he himself' had not time to do it. Hurrah! hurrah ! for the stars and the stripes. It will be impossible for me to say when this war will terminate, or when we shall be at home: but when you see me and read my journal, you will judge for yourselves whether I have fulfilled my promise, "That the heroism and,the honor ofr. the 'lron City Hotel' shot - lid not be tarnished in my keeping during this war." The finest sport I that I have yet had has been on Foraging Expe -1 ditions, or pilfering parties, as I call them, and in Ideed in the main they are little better. I have been on somethree or four. The first time I went by myself some two miles from camp, took no arms except my faithful Revolver, (which I have named after old Rough and Ready) and my bowie knife ; with these I helped to kill and skin a good fat Beef, and found a medal of silver among some old lead. The medal hangs suspended to a riband round my neck. 1 have no doubt it is an emblem of some honor here in Mexico, as all of the Mexi cans that I have met since seem to know it, but not being able to talk Spanish I cannot get the history of it. On Sunday, 14th, 1 went on a sec-i and tour of inspection or pilfering, four of us in I company, one of the men, and the very one next to me in file was shot down. He was a member of company H, from Green empty. He got a bullet or slug sent through his shoulder, and lodg ing in that broad bone at the back. In one 'mo ment we had determined to surround the thicket and take the cowardly assassin ; had we done so, woe to the Mexican dog! But our companion was growing worse so very rapidly that it was, , thought best to hasten on to the surgeon with him. Ito which I acceded finally. We were obliged tol carry him to camp, a distance of 3 or 4 miles ; he is now getting better, but the slug (as I believe) is still in his shoulder- There was quite a little town near where the deed was done; several hou ses and lots of women and children, mostly black.' On Thursday, 18th„ Mr. J. 1). Mahon, Jr.' (son of one of your distinguished lawyers,) who messes with me, proposed that we go on a foraging expedition. We started at about BA. M., on the Santa Fe road ; many others fell in with us in course of the morning. There are a great many little towns opt on this road, and it was proposed. that we go and take possession of them. All hands assenting, Lieut. Lewis of Penna. Regiment, company G, was appointed commander. That day we took three country towns, and relieved a great many houses of "superfluous" articles—the owners having fled at our approach. On one oc casion we were near coming to a brush with a lot of Mexicans, and the most of out men gave way Out of twenty-six, there were but two stood fast to our gallant commander—these two were Greens" —small of statue, but big of soul, Mahon and your own Black Hawk Hoops. These, with Lieut Lew is, after the others hail retreated, returned, in or der to rally the recreants. Hawk had seen this, same party only an hour before when scanning the Woods, and he was Sure they did not muster i any thing like what was attributed, say SO or 100, land I was right sure one dozen men could takel take them all. Finnally we got them rallied once more and formed in line, Mahon and self taking the right of honor by consent. Need I tell yo u that they (the Mexicans) fled at our approach like frightened rabbits ? such was the case.

Now, I think you may look for ns home this summer—for it is my impression that Santa An na will make peace—thinking, doubtless, that half a loaf " is better than no bread. .rk• The arrangements above mentioned, have just i been effected, after three days bombarding, and as near as I can guess, one-third of the city laid in ashes—doubtless many lives were destroyed in the city from the effects of our bomb shells—a few of our men have suffered. After I had written as far as this postscript, on the 2111 went over the hill, and almost to the very gates of Vera Cruz - , to see what damage had been done,.

This victory just achieved is one of the most important in our na tional archieves.

The New York Tribinei of tbeylOth inst., has • . an interesting letter, fro* --n" Pinia correspondent, descriptive of the , ..gteat :Net -and, Orator, tr.srin: TINE. The -- la , helej - r;brtia: it is too long for,our columns, and our matted; Must be - contenteri - x9th the following extract It was iii'therbturilier, Of- Deputies that tzfirat saw M. de Lamartirle. - As I 'entered the Diplo matic box..he vritii mounting the Tribune, and I heard hinispeak for some. fifteen minutes. His manner wa:s"cilm, dignified and energetic, slut he commanded universal attention. His speeches are often More sturmybut whenever his heart is in the subject he discusses, he is sure, whether calm or stormy, to achieve some of the finest triumphs of oratory . and 'give to those who listen passages of unrivalled beauty, harmony and grandeur: ' De Larnartine is of good height and• elegant form. His face is a little thin and it is' marked -by - the deep lines which distingnish nertmla Man.= His chin is slightly projecting, and his nose lifge and inclining to the.aqiiline. His - eyebrows are heavy projecting and , quite arched, and his gray ish hair is arranged with the : greatest - attention over as fine a farehead as a painter could desire to see. It has been disputed whether his eyes were black or blue. The former color seem's now to be in the ascendant—though were I to be Called to decide the important questiOn, I shoUld say that' his eyes were neither black nor blue, but a very , dark hazel. His teeth are - beautifully' white.and regular, and he has an exceedingly coquettish way. of showing them. They form one of the elements of a smile that is almost irresistible, and which, contrasts strongly with the proud and ironical look that he often wears. • M. de Lamartine is a manor rare contradictions —he is proud and simple, good-natured and ironi cal, light and profound, ambitious and indolent; be is equally in love with the world and seclusion, , with pleasure and retirement. He loves to be praised and dislikes to make acquaintances. In conversation he hears himself only, - and with an extremely good natured contempt he laughs at man whom he cannot convince, paining him with his pride as much as he charms him by his affa bility.. With all these faults, there are . few men who have a greater power over others in conver sation, and though the impressions which he-leaves upon one's mind are never deep and always-min- I gled of pleasure and regret,-still he is a man whoni I one will always wish to see again. At his house everything is in the most exact or. I I der, and though his fortune is something wasted, i he will be found in the midst of studied elegance, in which his horses and dogs share their part; for, horses and dogs are among his favorites. in the Legislative Hall M. de Lamartine ocea nic., a singular position . . He very justly hai a high opinion of himself, but this very unnecessarily leads him to hold other men so much in contempt . that be is scarce ever able to control them. They bear his eloquence and are charmed with it ;obut still they do not follow hini;--not only for the rea son which I have stated, but for another, which is I that he never seems to stand upon any solid or practicable ground. His politics are a sort of poe try. lie dreams. The purpoieit that he would ac : , complish are far away in the distant Future—in another age and another state of-Society. In the indistinct mists which:lie over all his beliefs and hopes, his spirit seems to wander without guide or cot - brims, and who will . follow the Manwliol does not himself know where he leadsT Few wilco have heard him will forget his style--impasSioned and fervent: yet De Lamartine is not a man of passions. Few Will forget-the ambitition of glory and the pride which he always displays, yet all will feel that he is no beaster andno lover of show. His sentitnents are great and generous, but they scareelyever aim at practicable results; and while he wishes to fill the world with his, presence and glory, he is surprised to find that he cannot gov ern the little knot of, men sometimes called his par ty.. 1 et he.is always pushing on—always coati dentalways satisfied, but never auccessful. 7 -- France has many of whom she could make better Statesmen—she has but one such Poet. . . . . It must always be a matter of regret that La martine abandoned Poetry for Politicsnot that the latter was not an equally honest and worthycalling, but that he was a so much letter poet than he ever can be politician. He has written some of the finest passages which can be found in any on. inspired volumes—passages which will make his name immortal; but even his poetry, like his poli tics, seems to be unfinished—like gems all scat. teredin coufution. It is in part the fault of his genius, but more of his contempt for his readers and for labor which induces him to throw out his productions upon the world without revision or correction. Proud, simple, contemptuous, ambitious, indolent—always talking of principle; kilt always pushed on by the impulses of imagination—with theories so grand that nobody can follow him, and with so many minute exceptions that he can fol low nobody else—a man of the most sublime and beautiful thoughts, yet lacking that common sense which carries many who are less able to greater success. M. de Larnartirie is a person who does not well understand himself, and who is, not, well understood by others. Well did one who under took to write the Poets life close the third revision of his history by saying, "Deridement, la biographie ds M." de Laniarline West possible Oi'aprcs so mut" Origin of the Upas Tree Story:—A real valley of death exists in Siva: it is `termedthe 'ValTet:of Poison, ant: is filled to..
