MEXICO.
We have received files of the Vera Cruz
ZocQhiotor to the 15ih of April. They
Contain a, good deal of interesiing news,
of which ths following hems constitute a
"portion:
The question of a railroad from Vera
Cruz to the Pacific, continues to occudv
the pdblic mind in Mexico. The projeotl
is a nooie one, and, the work would be a
useful one," but is at present beyond the
fuMjc or private means of that country,
f th road should be made, it will be done
with foreign capital, and under foreign
supervision. In the mean time, a Mr.
" Tono proposes to make a carriage road
a Macadami zed one, we suppose- from
Vera Cruz to Acapulco, to be completed
in seven years, and at the end of forty-five
more is to be transferred to the State, with
all th property. Mr. Togno says that
two hundred thoasand persons will travel
over it annually, and that there will be four I
hundred coaches, two thousand men, and
four thousand rnules and horses required
for the service; that Vera Cruz will become
anothtr New York, and Acapulco the
great city of the Pacific. We doubt a good
"deal ot this. Two hundred thousand per
sons will not travel over the road annu
ally , nor will Vera Cruz ever be a New
York.
. The war between the Yucatecoes and
the Indians is not yet at an end; and the
..and cannot be foreseen. It may be a long'
anadrmculijob to pu down the insurgents
and if pat down, it is mt likely that they
will remain down many years. They
know their own strength now, and also
the weikness of their antagonists. The
Mexicans complaink that the English at
the Belize furnish the Indians with arms
and ammunition, and thus put it in their
power to prolong the contest; and this.
they say further, is a violation of the treaty
with Spain of 179&. The English, on the
other hand, assert that the treaty is no
longur in force being nullified by the
xuextcan reroiunon, and mat tney have a
right-to sell arms and ammunition to any.
body that will purchase, and will sell to
the Mexicans themselves, if they will buy.
And they are right about the treaty, we
think; but arms and arramunitiorr ars con
traband of war, and he who sHs them to
one belligerent, commits an act of hostility
against the otherl .
It is reported that rich gold mines have
been discoverd at and neur Durango. The
acconet says that they are as rich as the
California mines, of which "they ask no
javors -no pedimos favores. If this
shou-d be so, there will be another rush
to that region from all parts of the world,
and Alexicj will find it very difficult eith
er to keep the gold for herslf or to cause
her mining laws to be reapected. These
' are precise and stringent, and do not per

Mexico stems to be in a rather unsettled

Tie Strike on the Central Railroad
No arrangement has yet been effected
by which the difficulties between the con
tractors and workmen on the Central Rail
road can be settldd. The Irish resolutely
hold out for the dollar per day, and the
contractors as resolutely refuse to give it;
and the consequence is that all operations
have ceased between Johnstown and Blairs
ville, with the exception we believe of
one section at Johnstown. We learn that
tfce Irishmen have formed themselves into
an association regularly organized; for the
purpose, of forcing the contractors to ac"
cede to tbeu terms, and prevent others
trora working on the road. About five
hawked, armed with pistols, knives. &c,
are loeated in the Ridge, above Blairs ville
and they parade the line in squads to see
that no others are workings They have a
common fund of about eight hundred dol
lars, out of Which they supply those who
must have work to support themselves
with money sufficient to carry them to'the
Beaver or some other Railroad. How
Ion this state of things will last, we are
unable ta to tell, but we think the law
should be called in aid to put an end to it.
The Irishmen certata'.y have a right to
demand higher wages, bat they have no
right to take the law into their own hands
and prevent others from working who are
disposed to do so. We believe the wages
given by the contractors on the Central
Railroad (87 cents per day) are as high
as on any other road, and hightr than most
of them.

that old Westmoreland should feel herself
offended at the primary steps that have
been taken in relation to the next candidate
for Congress. It eannot be denied that
Cambria county is right in asserting her
claim to the next candidate, or that the
course she adopted relative to the matter
was not warranted by precedent. Having
no disposition to get into a quarrel with

hope of doin so, the Register man wo'd
be the last one we would call upon for

Church is alone in her slaveholding.
Mr. Garrison. The gentleman does
not understand me. If he will have a lit

him on that point. (Laughter.)
The Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Bap
ttsts and Methodists were then disposed
of by an equally summary process. They
countenanced slavery, and slavery was a
moral iniquity; therefore, the churches
had no piety.
The speaker attacked the inspiration of
the Uible. J he question of inspiration,
he said, was worth nothing in the present
age. The greatest amount of immortality
was compatible with the highest degree
of veneration. The Bible had become

Mr. Garrison then continued, amid
some interruptions and hisses and remon-

phemies, until, by the mere sutlerance of
ihe audience, he had we-aried himself out.
He spoke in a very, subdued manner.
Then followed another uproar, similar
to the former, but not of so long duration,
nor so violent in its character. There
were calls for "Rynders, Grant," 6ic.
(Prof. Grant from Baltimore.)
Mr. Garrison announced that the Rev.
Dr. Furniss would now address the meet
ing, aud that gentleman stepped forward
for the purpose.

After lr. Furniss, Mr Grant addres
sed the meeting m a curious, but really
able address. It was a scientific exhibi
tion of the present theory respecting the
distinction of races. I he rap. day with
which the gvnileman heaped up scienti
fic terms, provoked oursta of laughter from
all parties, and tended gieatly to restore
good humor. It was tto learned altogether
to serve any other purpose with the au
dience. Frederick DouIa.s was'ihe next speak
er and the excrement bev?au again. Th:
platform preseiued a singular appearance.
On the mirth end were the chief of poiice
and his men. Uu the southern end Capt.
KyiiuVrs aud a crowd of his friends and
others'.
Douglass at first stood behind the chair
man, but on being called upon to come to
the fmot of ihe plaifom.he did so without
any sign of fear.
Rynders said somethig to one of those
neur him, that if D ughluss attacked this
country and government as he had been
accustomed to, he would assault him.
When Doubles came forward, the
chief of police hd placed himself be-fore
