The present condition of affairs in the dis
tracted republic of Mexico is attractinv, the
attention of interested parties in different
parts of the world. A public meeting of the
Mexican English bondholders was held in
London on May 2f-th, co consider the state of
their affairs, which expressed its unanimous
approval of the principles of Lich. Houston's
proposed protectorate of Mexico. The reso
lution copied from the London limes, is as
follows :--
Resolved, ratit this meeting, without presuin
ing to give an opinion on the future destiniee of
M. - xico, or on ilia policy, so Mr no Mexico her

muuicate with him generally cu the
reply to his letter.
Santa Anna has issued a manifesto from
St. Thomas to his fellow citizens, for the pur
pose of exculpating himself from the charges
made,p.gainst him. He states that he is wri
ting his life, which will be a complete vindi
cation of all his acts, and complains bitterly
of the acusations against him in the Mexican
papers. All this he ascribes to envy. He
states that when he obeyed the call of his
country in 1853, he found the treasury emp
t, the army dissolved, and the government
broken up, and that he restored order. He
narrates the events of the revolution of Ayut•
la, and gives his reasons for leaving the coun
try ; reviews his course during his last admin
isiration, defends the Gadsden treaty, excul
pates himself from the charge of having pock
eted a large portion of the money received
for territory,abuses the American troops,rates
General Comonfort, excuses his taking of
high-sounding titles, and hopes that the bril•
liant page of his past career may yet serve to
guide his country. He closes by saying that
he left his humble retreat to place himself by
the side of his struggling lellow-country men,
but learning that the petty tyrant bad fallen,
he has stopped at St. Thomas, where he re
mains in the hope that Mexicans may be hap
py, and that their children may have a coun
try.
The bondholders having an eye to the main
chance, are not opposed to an Ameriean pro
tectorate, so that it will enable them to get
their money back ; Gen: Houston watches
with a keen eye the daily increasing difficul
ties in Mexican affairs, which render tlic
chances of a protectorate greater, while th 6
cockfighting, one-legged Ex , President vents
his spite towards Americans in manifestoes,
show that he, like the rest, is only looking for
a gain to himself. The dissevered republic
to regain peace and order, will, doubtless,
eventually appeal to the United States gov
ernment for protection, and it seems likely
that all interested parties will agree to the ar
rangement, provided it will pay.
THE LATE PEULADELPIZ A TARIFF
MEETiN<..
The Penusylinnian and s others of the Philo
phia papers, denounce the recent tariff meet
ing in that city as a" mere political gathering
called for the purpose of airing the prospects
of the opposition for 1860." The Evening
Journal, in an article upon this subject, says •
" We are afraid there is a disposition in cer
tain quarters to make the question of a pro
tective tariff the basis of an organized move
ment against the Democratic party ;" and
then sketches the character of t;;:: meeting,
and thoke prominent in it, in the 2 , lowing
truthful and graphic manner: " L r, the
meeting held at the National Hall. in
Did it emanate from the laboring classes, or
from the men who would use them and their
interests for the sordid ends of party politics
and personal ambition? The Committee of
Arrangements was composed, largely of well
known party leaders and wirepullers,who nev
er worked in a factory, or used mechanics tools.
A set of vaporing Congressmen, whose advo-,
cacy of any measure taints it with political
venality and the nasty venom of partizanship.
The movement did not originate in the right
source, and wad not carried out in the right
hands." This is true, every word of it: and
the laboring masses of the State, it they
want to have the interests of America labor
protected—and this is a vital matter in Penn
sylvania must take the subject in her ow n
hands and not trust it in the clutches of
office seekers. It is the people—the National
Democracy whomust take hold of this
Tariff question and defend their own inter

What of the. COtll Crop
Much anxiety is felt about the corn crop.
The late heavy rains, throughout the West
have seriously interfered with planting. Iu
is thought by some that we shall not have
more than half a crop, if we do that. De
pendent upon the corn crop, as everybody
knows, is the pork crop. Thus a failure of
the corn crop would be doubly disastrous.
But the weather is now pleasant, and if corn
is rushed immediately into the ground, it
must, with respectable weather, ripen. We
don't despair of corn-yet.
flunkey.
There is said to be a general disposition on
part of New York banks to anticipat e the re
duction of the deposits, which usually com
mences about this season, by checking theif
loans, and it is therefore less easy to neg.,-
tiate securities at the inside rates lately cur
rent. Some of the banks there will nut re
ceive paper at anything below 6 per cent.,
while those who have taken selections at 4 to
5 per cent., now insist on the latter rate as the
lowest limit. No violent change is anticipated,
but the tendency is evidently in favor of the
lender. If the movement shall become gen
eral there the influence will no doubt extend
to this city, and higher rates_may therefore
be looked for.

Briqeh Outrages—Unanimous Adoption
of Mr. Mason's Resolutions.
At the time when they were adopted by
the Committee on Foreign Affairs, May 29th,
we published a telegraphic abstract of Mr.
Mason's report, together with the resolutions.
On Wednesday previous to the final adjourn
ment of the Senate, these resolutions were
taken up and adopted by a unanimous vote.
This distinct and unequivocal expression is,
under the circumstances, peculiarly signifi
cant. It was known that Great Britain would
disavow all intention to trespass on our rights
ur offend our feelings, and orders had been
issued to her cruisers in the Gulf to refrain
at once from boarding American ships. Yet
the Senate very properly asserted, by the
passage of the resolutions, a principle from
which the American people will under no
circumstances depart. It is gratifying that
there was nu dissenting voice on a question
involving the honor of our nationality, The
foot shows that these are subjects which
transcend all considerations of section and
party, and occasions in which our public
men can act as Americans, and as such only.
As they are now the record of an Ameri
can principle, we reproduce the resolutions.
They are as follows :
Resolved, (as the judgment of the Senate,) That
American veisela on the high seas, in time of peace,
bearing the Amerieau flag, remain under the juris.
diction of the country to which they belong, and
therefore any violation, molestation or detention of
such vessels by force, or by the exhibition of force,
on the part of a fareign power, is in derogation of
the sovereignty of the United States.
Resolved, That the recent and repeated violations
of this immunity, committed by vessels of war be•
longing to the navy of great Britain in the Gulf of
Mexico and the adjacent seas, by firing into, inter
rupting, and otherwise forcibly detaining them on
their voyage, requires, in the judgment of
. the Sen.
ate, such unequivocal and final disposition of the
subject by the governments of Great Britain and the
United States, touching - the rights invOlved, as shall
shtiely the just demands of this government, and
preclude hereafter the occurrence of like aggressions.
Remo/yeti, That the Senate fully approves the ex
tier. , f the Executive ;u sending a naval force into
the infested seas, with orders " to protect all vessels
n
of the United Stat,s on the high seas from search
or detentionby the vessels of war of any other na
tion."
Ad
necessary, th'tb u
the
opinion

should be supplied in aid of the Executive power as
will make each protection effectual.

—A number
The London newspapers have been client for
carne weeks about the Leviathan. Looking over
the advertising columns of a London journal,
we found it officially announced that this mam
moth-steamer was in full trim, at last--that she
was to be open to public inspection on May 29,
and that Mr. Same, a fashionable London book
seller. was to be solo agent for the sale of tickets.
She is moored in the Thames, on the Deptford
side. Pinar cargo she will take, what nassen
gers she can ex peel, has beea rather doubtful,
as yet. though it has long been known that her
first voyage would be to Portland, where great
and even costly preparations were made, mouths
ago, to receive her.
It is announced, at last, that the Leviathan
w!Il be regularly placed on the line between En
gland and the United States, running to Portland,
where such ample and even costly arrangements
were made to receive her. Early next season
she will make her first voyage. To equip the
Leviathan fur sea, all the capital raised being ex

per annum. Two questions are—what percen

where she is to gee remunerating passengers and
freight?
In all probability - , the time occupied in a voy

independent of abridging the discomfort of a
sea-journey. Without a vecy extraordinary in

of all toe steamers, we do not see how the pas

Vatidetniilt steamers, which is considerably less
than by the Cunard line.

Niagara left Plymouth on the 9th, c r even the
10th instant, as they were to do, on their great
Expedition, it is probable that they have already

cable has been spliced, and that the central part
of the cord that is to unite Europe and America
is down in the bed at the bottom of the Atlantic,
while the two ships are Ppeeding on their opho
_:'e o• ur• cs. Within the next fortnight the anx
ious question will doubtless be anawered,on both
sides of the ocean, whether the greatest undertak
ing of the present century has proved u. suceess or El
failure. The experimental trip of the two ships
appear to have been satisfactory, the machinery
for paying•out the cable ivorked well, the splic
ing of the two ends was affected with ease, and
unless the ships encounter a harder storm than
may be exped9ted at this season of the year, or
the the Niaghra should encounter an iceberg,
which is one of the greatest dangers ti ho appre

of the gloat work being completed before our

The Washington Star tells the following extra
ordinary story of an •txtraordinary horse. and
vouches for its truthfulness :
On Wednesday last a blind horse which had
just previously been detached from a cart in
which he bad been hard to work hauling bricks
all day, took fright and ran at a headlong pace
across Pennsylvania avenue, at a short distance
ease of the Capitol: when he arrived at the side
opposite that from whenee he started, he encoun
tered a tree-box, which he tore down, together
ear th the tree inside it, (a sapling some six inches
through at the trunk.) This act did not impede
his progress in the least, for he continued straight
ahead, and the next thing he encountered was
was the fourteen inch wall of !a rough brick
house, inhabited by Mr. John Smith and his
family. Incredible as this story may appear he
ran against the wall with suoh force as to break
it entirely through, making a breach through,
which a good sized man could creep, and other
wise producing a fissure as wide as a man's
hand, reaching up as far as the second story of
the house. In running against the house the
horse placed his fore foot on the bulkhead cellar
door in front, through which they broke, barking
h• t lege, in a fine style. The force of the blow
against the wall sent a sofa inside flying across
the room, together with about a barrel of bricks
whioh.had been detached from the wall. Back
ing out of all this mischief, as well as he could
this animated battering ram wheeled about and
tore off through the street into a large marble
yard near by, where he tumbled heels over head
several times among the blocks of marble,flnally
entangling himself between them to such an
extent that he could make no further progress,
and then he caved in. He was recaptured and
manned off to his stable, when his, pedal termi
nations were properly dressed. On Friday he
was agian put to work, and carted brick all day
most industrionsly. To any one that may be at
all skeptical as to the accuracy of this state
ment, we can only say, go and see for yourselves
as we did.
MATCH BETWEEN A MAN AND A TERRIER AT
RAT KILLING. —One day last week a wager was
laid by .a Sootohman that he could kill twelve
rate, in regular dog fashion, in less time than a
t.i....tteb. terrier, famous for his destruction of the
noxious vermin. The wager was accepted, and on
Saturday afternoon the contest came off in a rat
pit near the corner of Third And Sycamore
streets, about which a number of the " fancy"
had tisembled to witness the " sport." The
Vl-..0 and tue dog were placed in the ring, and
both went to work energetically and bravely.
The human creature would snatch up the rats in
his hands, and, biting them across the back of
the neck and spine, precisely as the terrier, kill
them at once. Both did well, but the man killed
his twelve rats just as the dog had finished his
tenth. When the Scotchman came out of the
ring he was covered with blood, and his hands
were bitten in various places, but he seemed to
care nothing for his wounds, after having ob
tained a victory over a dog.—Cin. Enquirer.
THE STORM IN BUCKS COUNTY, PA.—The
storm of last Friday and Saturday was very se
vere in Bucks county, Pa. The Tohiokon creek
was higher than it has been since 1841, and the
crops along its banks are supposed to,,tiave been
damaged to the amount of $2OOO r $BOOO.
Denham creek was also very high, and consid
erable damage has been done along its banks,
especially in Springtown valley. Fences were
washed off, grass and grain flooded, and some
cattle carried away, which, however, made a
safe landing. Slifer's Bridge was moved about
six inches from its foundation, but not otherwise
injured. Deep run also overflowed its banks,
piling up drift wood and brush on one of the
bridges, so as to render it impassable for some
time. The Neshamony creek did not rise to the
extent of doing mischief.

CAoing it Bllind
Dr. Johnson on the American R evo l t ,.
lion,
In Mr. Bancroft's seventh volume of his
`'History of the United States," just published,
the historian thus severely, but justly, maim
madverts upon Dr. Johnson's servile pander •
ing to the powers that were, and his insolent
language toward the American Patriots. Mr.
Bancroft says :
"While such was the state of angry opposition
between the citizens and soldiers at Boston,
Lord Howe at London finally broke off his nego
tiaticns with Franklin, and the Ministry used the
pen of Samuel Johnson to inflame the public
mind. Johnson was a poor man's son, and had
had himself tasted the bitter cup of extreme in
digeno' llis fgtuer left no more thou twenty
pounds. To bury his mother and pay her little
debts, he had written "Rasselas." For ye ot he
had gdined a precarious support as sna eutnor.
He had paced tile streets of London el! ing'ni
long, from not having a place where to Joy his
head ; he had escaped P. prison for a trifle he
owed by begging alms of Richardson, had
broken his bread with poverty,, and had even
known what it was from sheer want to go with
out dinner. When better days came, he loved
the poor as few else love them : and he nursed in
his house whole nests of the lame, the blind, the
sick, and the sorrowful. A man who had thus
sturdily battled with social evils, and was so
keenly touched by the wretehodness of the down
trodden, deserved to have been able to feel for
an injured person; tin., he refused to do so.
Having defined the word pension as "pay, given
to a state hireling for treason to his country," he
was himself become a pensioner; and or the
age of three-soorce and six, with a hire, like a
brave who loves his trade, he set about the task.
of his work masters. In a tract which he called
"Taxation no cyranny," he echoed to the crowd
the haughty rancor which passed down from the
King and his court to his council, to the minis
try, to the aristocracy, their parasites and foi
-1 lowers, with nothing remarkable in its party
zeal, but the intensity of its bitterness ; or to its
manner, but its unparallelled insolence; or in its
argument, but its grotesque extravagance.
"The Bostonians had declared to the general
congress their willingness to resign their opu
lerit town, and wander into the eel:tatty as exiles.
"Alas I" retorted Johnson, "the heroes of Bos
ton will only leave good houses for wiser men."
To the complaints of liability to be carried out
of their country for trial, he answered, "we ad
vised them not to offend." When it was argued
that they were condemned unheard, he asserted,
"there is no need of a trial ; no man desires to
hear that which he has already seen."
"Franklin had remained in great Britain for
no reason but to promote conciliation, and with
an implacable malice which has set off by pon
derous effort• at mirth, Johnson pointed out
at him as the "master of mischief," teaching
congress to paths motion the engine of electric
ity, and to give the great stroke by the name of
Boston."
" Did the Americans claim a right sf resis
tance. " Audacious defiance!" oried Johnson,
" acrimonious malignity 1" The indignation of
the English is like that of the Soythans, who,
returning from war, found themselves excluded
from their own house by their slaves."
" Virginia and the Carolines had shown im
patience of oppression. " How is it," asked John
son, " that we hear the loudest yells for liberty
amongst the drivers of negroes ? ---•The Waves
should be set free ; they may be made more
grateful and honest than their masters."
"Lord North inclined to mercy: " Nothing,"
said Johnson, "can be more noxious to society
than clemency which exacts no forfeiture; and
Ire proposed to arm the savage Indians, turn out
the British soldiers on free quarters among the
Americans, remodel all their charters, and
take away their political privileges.
" Dickinson of Pennsylvania had insisted that
tee Americans complained only of innovations.
" We do not put a calf into the plough," said
the moralist ;" we wait till he is an ox." This
however, the ministry bade him erase, not for
its ribaldry, but as unwilling to concede that
the oalf had been - snared ; and Johnson obeyed
comparing himself to a mechanic for whom the
" employer is to decide." Was he told that the
Americans were increasing in numbers, wealth,
and love of freedom. " This talk," said he " that
they multiply with the fecundity of their own
rattlesnakes, disposed men accustomed to think
themselves masters, to hasten the experiment of
binding obstinacy before it is become yet more
obdurate." He mocked at the rule of progression
which showed that Americans must in the cud
exceed Europe in the population. " Then,"
said he in derision not knowing how much truth
he was uttering, "in a century and a quarter
let the princess of the earth tremble in their
palaces."
Had Jekeneon hcer, truly a man of genius ho
would have escaped the shame of having in his
old age aimed at freedom, the feeble shaft which
was meant to have carried ruin. In spite of the
ostentatious pomp of hismorality, nis own heart
was riveted the earth. At the last, he cowed
under the fe - .r of dp:-Foiution, as though de nth
were an en:m:4; sacrificing his limbs in the vain
hope r f beea - tning though but a few hours more :
unable in the moment of change to fix his Pees
on God, or to grasp eternity ; the emblem of the
old political system, which also on its death bed,
helplessly longing to live on. His name is never•
breathed as a watch-word ; his writings never
thrill as oracles."
Original Letter from General Jackson.
The Boston Transcript states that the fol
lowing is a copy of an original autograph let
ter by Andrew Jackson, in the collection of
Mr. H. W. D. Bryant, of Boston :
HBRMITAGH, August 24, 1838.
DEAR Sin : rthank you kindly for the peru
sal of your pious uncle's letter, which you were
good enough to enclose for my perusal.
Should you live to see this pious divine, your
uncle, present him my kind regards, with my
prayers for a long continued life of usefulness
and a happy immortality. Say to him I would
long since have made this solemn public dedica
tion to Almighty God, but knowing the wretch
edness of this world, and how prone many are
to evil, that the scoffer of religion would have
cried out, •'hypocrisy—he has joined the church
for political effect"
I thought it best to postpone this public act
until my retirement to the shades of private life,
when no false imputation could be made that
'might be injurious to religion.
Please say to him, I well remember the pleas
ure I had of taking him by the hand and receiv
ing his kind benediction, for which I am grate
ful. It would give me pleasure now, in retire
ment, to receive and shake him by the hand.
Present our kind regards to your amiable fam
ily, and receive for yourself our best wishes.
I remain very respectfully, yours, titc.,
ANDREW JACKSON.
P. S. lam so much debilitated that I can
scarcely hold my pen.

U. A GREAT BLESSING TO THE AFFLICTED.—
The number and formidable character of diasasea of
the Liver have long challenged the attention of medical
men. some of their diseaaes, classed under the general
term of Consumption, have been supposed incurable, and
the unhappy patient allowed to die, without medical science
to offer him a hope of recovery. Sappily this can no longer
be the case. A remedy has been found which will cure all
complaints, of whatever character, arising from derange
merit of the Liver. The Pills discovered by Dr..ll'Lane,pre
pared solely by Fleming Bros., Pittsburgh, Pa., act directly
on the Liver; an f by correcting its operation and purifying
it from disease, cuts off and extirpates the complaints which
have their origin in the diseami of this organ. Remedies
hitherto proposed for liver complaints, have failed to oper
ate upon the east of the disease ; but Dr. 3PLane's Pills
make themselves felt upon the action of the Liver, a nd by
cleansing the fountain, dry up the impure streams of dis
ease which thence derive their existence.
43 - Purchasers will be careful to es k for Dr. &PLANE'S
CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS, manufactured by FLEMING
BRCS., of Pittsburgh, Pa: There are other Pills purporting
to be Liver Pala, now before the public. Dr. 3PLane's genuine
Liver Mlla, also his celebrated Vermifuge, can now be had et

The London papers contain interesting articles in
reference to the outrage on American vosiels in the
Golf of Mexico. The despatch says nothing of any
further proceeding in Parliament in relation thereto,
and the presumption is that nothing had occurred.
