Noticing lately, in many papers, allusions to Mr Wise's conduct, particularly in your paper of to-day, an extract from the National Intelligencer, (on the whole nearer carnet than any I have seen,) and anoth er from the Cleveland Plaindealer, giving a very in correct impression, I think some particulars of this) i matter may be interesting to your readers, and ea therefore give them to you. This affair was not commenced by Mr Wise, but by cur former counsul at Rio, Mr Slocum, who, in April, 1838, learned that American vessels we-e sold at Rio to slave dealers, to be delivered in Africa, there to bring slaves to Brazil; he at once tried to stop it; but was opposed by our minister, Mr Hunter, who ap peared to think it was a pity to stop good sales of A merican vessels. Semeeorrespondencr ripen this sub ject tc ok place between Mr Slocum and Mr Hunter, and both wrote to oargovernment, by whom Mr Sla- CUT Vett!, supported, but so feebly that be could only make hie intention to stop it evident. From that tine to the present, the achenners nee e lle. Leda. and Illinois, and htigs Yankee, Solon, PO grim, Garrafilia, Dunn, Kentucky, Sophia, and Por poise, are known or suspected to have been in the slave trade, but probably twice this number, names nut known have been in it. The following &comet will show the method pursu ed in many cases. About July, 1.8.11, the brig Sophia, of New Totk, was, at Rio, sold to a slave dealer, by Messrs Max well, Wright & Co. The master. A W Kroolt, put his mate, Matthew Hale, in charge. and she went as an American vessel to Benguela, Africa; there she was fitted as a slaver, and at night took in the slaves.— The next morning. Matthew Hale was only a passenger and a man who had bees a passenger from Rio was captain. The American crew were put. on shore, (where most of them died.) The brig ig was the "Bella Union," under the Monuevidinn flag, and she sailed for Brazil with a Purtuguesecrew found °nate coast. At I sea the captain and mate died, and Matthew Hale took commend with W. P. Summer (his former se cond mate) as mate. They took the vessel to Brazil, landed 500 slaves near Rio, and burned the vessel. So toy the slave traders at Rio. Mr alacum cuntinut ri to send to the United States government the information he obtained, and to do what he could against trade, until he was removed.' Mr Hunter appeared to do what he could to thwart Mr Slacrim, until he was himself removed. Mr Gordon, who succeeded Mr Slocum, has follow ed that gentleman's example. Mr Proffit, when minister to Rin, showed his de termination to do as Mr Wise has done. 15'hen Mr Wise artived at Rio, he met Messrs. Profit, Slocum and Gordon, learned all that had been done, and though n southerner and a slareholder, he saw his country's flag sold to the slave-dealers at Rio and disgraced. and from the first used all his infl meee against ir, and I hope be will yet succeed; being a southerner and slaveholder. he deserves the more cred it for his conduct; it con only be caused by pure and patriotic motives. Mr Wise obtained much information upon the sub.- , ject. most of which Is probably now at IVushington. :1 - e first case in which he took an active was N. P.

Com. Turner also acted rightly. A few days after the Porpoise was re leased, as but little could be proved against her, so well washer business bidden, and no law or treaty so thoriees Americans to seize in a Drezilian port any vessel without the consent of the Brazilian authorities. They, being all in favor of the slave trade, insisted on their right, and she was given up. She was first held by their cucrtesy, and that would have lasted till now on any other subject; but the slave trade, that is a sore one. A Wirt NrrERTHELFS3.—An examination result. ing in the commital of the individual, was recently held befoteWellingtun Kent, E. of Pawtucket, of Edward Vhitedide. charged with uniting a couple in marriage, knoniog that he was not lawfully entitled to officiate. It appears that one Ormerud had persuaded an Irish girl tu marry him, and engaged Whiteside to represent himself as a clergyman and perform the ceremony• After living with the girl a few days, he told her of the trick, and heartlessly bade her return to her own coun try and people. Whiteside wad held to bail fur the of fence in the sum of $2OOO. Oimerod, however, cannot exonerate himself from the responsibility of continuing the gill as his wife. The marriage, though an opinion generally prevails to the contiary, and the law of England favors that opin ion, is valid, for by the Revised Statutes of Massa cbussets, Ch. 73, s. '24 it is provided that notwithstand ing such irregularity, no marriage shall be adjudged void which hes been "consemated, with a Full belief on the Nut oldie persons so merried, or either of them, that they have been lawfully jaincd together." So the biter was bit, and he richly deserved it.

Mr. Buchanan con tinued his remarks, and turning round, saw the tepre. sentittive of the British Government occupying the seat of our American Senator.
