a CorrespoHtUnce of the Arte-York Daily Friday, May 21, 1652. The additional letters which I sent you of the proceedings of the Corpus Christi Fair, (which I tent by private" hand to this city, there being no mail at the time,) dfd not reach' here, unfortunately, untl two daysj after I arrived myself, and consequently they have been anticipated by the New-Orleans papers. Considering that it was. the first fair ever held in Texas, and the prejudices operating against it, it certainly was highly creditable to the State. Rumors, however, had leen spread abroad, that it was Onlv a ruse to cetun a Filibuster movement, which frightened the Mexicans off a little, and prevented manufacturers at a distance fram sending in arti-cles for competition.

The large amount of massive silver premiums distributed is alone sufficient to show that the efforts Col. Kinnky were solely i ii. i iwr me (mhi oi me riau some oi your Northern Manufactories sent down their fabrics and implements ot misbamlry, they might not only have taken premiums, but have effected large sales. The fairs hereafter are tor be annual, and due IWlf ir A will lui rrivAn 1 -i l.n heM. Resolutions were passed to hold it at the same place, it being more central and convenient.

UeiL A alos, comtnaiuiing the frontier at Mat a-moros, was invited by Capt. G. II. Lewis, as one. cf the Committee to attend the fair.

The General, iu declining, writes one of the most tender and affectionate regrets imaginable, which ends with all sorts of assurances. The lest of the joke. is, that Lew is is celebrated Air having made several hair- 11 .1 "rnuiii esciies irom Aiextcan prisons, ana lately, Avaios held him a prisoner at Matamoros, and would certainly have sent him to Castle Perote, or Lave had hun.shot, had he not again have made hi escape I mentioned to you in my first Jetter from Corpus, that lien. Carvajal, who had been invited to the lair, bad given notice of his intention of making a address to the jeople of Texas and the world at large, setting forth his position, detailing the causes of the revolt of the people of Tamauli-pas.

This is certainly the strongest argument I have yet heard in favor of the 44 CkMnpromi-se." I think Cabvajal. ought to succeed, if only for the -expression of that sentiment. Genl McLhod saidihat the causes, as set forth by Caevajal. were ten times greater than those which made our forefathers take up arms against England; and I think so too.

As I came up the Balize, I saw some eight or ten large ships lying aground on the liar, or rather 44 stuck in the mud," outward and inward bound, which has so blocked up the channel that it is very hard for steamers even to get in or out. In consequence of this, our Chamber of Commerce and citizens generally, have memorialized Congress to invest the Collector and Naval Officer of New-Orleans to make contracts for the clearing out of the S. V. Pass, and the deepening of the channels. According to the statement of the Board Commerce, the outward current of trade through the mouth of the Mississippi, according to the annual quantity of value of the productions of the area of country bounded the Alleghany and Rocky Mountains on the East and West, ana by Canada and the Gulf of Mexico ion the North and South, amount in the aggregate; to ninety millions of dollars.

The hole country at large is certainly interested in this improvement, Ur it affects merchants, planters, ana farmers, broadcast throughout the Union. The appropriation asked for is from $.100,000 to 150,000 per annum, to keep the channel open by means dredging machines. There is some ground for the belief that the bed of the Mississippi Kiver rises in proportion to its banks. According to; a survey made in 1722, by I'aI'oer, and reported to Bienville, there were twenlv-hve feet water on the bar. In 17(j7, there were -but twenty, and in 1826, there was but sixteen, and now ther is hardly nine feet.

It is possible that the bar, at the different mouths of the river, may have risen, while the tiottom of the bed withsfr may have! remained unaltered. But the mass of water, which pasees through these mouths, being the same as formerly, it follows that its force against the waves of the sea is not altered, and no good rejison can appear why the sea should retain the sanu to a higher level than before on the bank. According to Pai'ger, however, he thought the bar was occasioned by the current of the river, and the flux of the sea, which greatly obstructed the current and caused the river to overflow. It was his iopinion, that with little trouble, by giving a proper direction to the floating timber and drift dykes might be formed along one of the channels, or the two principal ones, say the south and the south-west passes, and by sinking old vessels and trees, stop the other up, so that the velocity Df the water would be increased, and a very great! depth obtained in tine. To show how the barsi have made out into the sea, I ill only state that when the French erected a fort at the old Balize, in 1724, then the mouth of the river, the present mouth is now three miles beyond it.

Saturday, May 29, 1652. This 44 loveliest village of the plain," to-day honored the cause of Freedom, writh most interesting manifestations of love and enthusiasm. Here, here the popular mind removed from the excitements of our greater cities is calm and serene as the beautiful lakes hich rest on the bosom of this charming region, Hungary's exiled chief has met a welcome which will be cherished-as one of the fairest flowers in the garland of sympathy bestowed upon him byfhej people of our happy land. The fragrance of that flower, too, is the more refreshing, because it breathes the sentiment of those Mho cultivated it the dwellers in the rural districts the bone and sinew of our people, they, whose good, plain practical common sense, we are so often reminded, put to the test the labored calculations of political arithmeticians or dreamers. The knowledge that the 44 masses inland have pronounced foriCossuTH'a cause, gives assurance that the strong 44 pulsations of the peoples' heart jiow noticed, are not of a lilful fever, but evidences, rather, of increased vitality, and stronger, firmer, more vigorous health.

THE PREPARATION S. It was not definitely known at what precise time Kossuth would arrive here, until a- few hours since and the preparations were necessarily hasty. I say not so to apologise, for that were needless. Auburn enjoys a happy medium between the brick and mortar city, and the country village, possessing all the refinement of the former, and those friendly social characteristic, which in the village makes each man acquainted with his neighbor. A stranger in Auburn, still I feel at home amid influences which here unite and harmonize, and draw together charming brotherhood and familiar friendship, all whose moral and mental qualifications, mark their title to the only true nobility.

In such a community preparations to xeceive a worthy guest are soon arranged. A Committee, consisting of Messrs. S. A.Goodwin, Clarence A. Seward, Derby, N.

P. Clark, and other prominent men, whose names are less fainiliarj was appointed to unite with the Municipal authorities in the arrangements forthe occasion. I THE RECEPTION. A Sub-Committee, consisting of Hon. John Porter, David Wright, and Samuel Blatchford, met the guest at Rochester, this morning, and escorted him to this city, where the party arrived at 1J o'clock, and were received amid the firing of cannon, and the enthusiastic, shouts ofsuch a crowd as, I am told, Auburn never saw before, while the bells rang a merry peal, until after the procession wias in motion.

The line of escort was formed of several military and fire companies, the authorities, citizens, and the Young Hungarian Guard, composed of some sixty lads, uniformly dressed, eacn I wearing the Hungarian tricolor. The route of procession was, very sensibly, a short one but all along, at every point, was filled with speculators. Genesee-street, as wide as New -York's broadest avenue, was completely blockaded by the enthusiastic hi nan mass and from every building, public or private, within view of the pageant, bright eyes shot forth their glances, and clouds of snow cambric waved the gentle but evidently heart-deep welcome to the inflexible-champion of the rights of humanity. THE SCENE. I said there was a crowd of participators in the gay.

scene but where such a number of people came from might have been questioned. 44 Surely the limits of Auburn City do not find them habitations," the stranger The early riser, however, from early dawn saw vehicles of every description from the stately coach of the opulent, to the ash-spring wagon of the least thrifty farmer rolling into the City in every direction, until by noon the place presented an aspect of bustle and excitement quite in contrast with its usual fepose. i The weather was charming and the day one of the most glorious of spring. Auburn, you know, is rarely equalled and never surpassed in our cities for the natural adornments of troc, and shrub, and flower. Just now these attractions present their gayest dress.

The visitors were struck with the beauty ot the place, and pronouncetl it indeed a charming spot. route an original decoration. Many of the buildings on the route of the procession were decorated in honor of the guest, with the flag of Hungary, and inscriptions announcing the welcome. The merchants got up an idea in their decorations which I had not before seen acted upon. In dressing their show-windows for the day, preference was given to-articles of white, scarlet or pink, and gTeen.

Thus, glistening silks, soft Cashmeres, or airy bareges hung in' graceful festoons, presented that combination of national colors which thrills the heart of the Hungarian, as do the stars arid stripes the American who wanders in a foreign land. RECEPTION BY THE MAT0R. Arrived at the American Hotel, Kossuth was introduced to Hon. B. F.

Hall, Mayor of the City, who welcomed him with much warmth of word and expression? as the true and faithful representative of a principle. Kossuth made a brief and eloquent reply, tnd then, after a few words from the balcony to those in the street, proceeded at once to the mansion of Gov. Seward. THE PCBLIC MEETING. At 4 o'clock the Second Presbyterian" Church was well filled by holders of Hungarian Bonds, deairoua of hearing thei exile's mission from bia own lips.

But I cannot get by this point without a word in compliment of the taseful arrangement of the building surpassing, as it did, in exquisite taste, neatness and niqueness of dec ration, anything of the kind 1 have seen even in New-York. Tha skill and handiwork; -of the ladies of Auburn were evident here on every side. The Hungarian banner Heated just back of the guest, supported by NEW-YORK, TUESDAY. JUNE 1. 1852.

the crescent and the American ensign on either hand the crescents and stars being of gold. The material was silk, and the manufacture and finish attracted universal attention. Mmiatnre tri-colors of the Same material depended from various points, above and front of thfe platform, furnishing a daytime illumination, excelling in appropriateness anything which countless jets of flame could present mid the darkness of night. The stage was richly carpeted and furnished. Near the speaker's stand several vases were placed, contaimngjarge bouquets of fragrant flowers.

These, too, were so arranged as to present the Hungarian tri-color, by a combination of the lily's pure white with the scarlet peany and the bright green shrub. Could taste find a more beautiful idea in which to give itself expression? Among a number of flags which hung from the organ and ceiling, was a small pattern of the stars and stripes, purchased in Leghorn by Clarence A. Seward, of a poor Italian republican woman, who had secretly cherished it as a harbinger of her country's future. Oft has it shaken out its folds from the prow of the Venetian Gondola and now it waves its silent welcome to one hose aim is to carry the freedom it symbolizes to the 44 captured nightingale," no less than Hungary's suffering children. Kossuth was impressively addressed on behalf of the Committee of Arrangements, by S.

A. Goodwin, and replied in an extempore speech of about an hour, full of interest to the audience, although it presented no new ideas upon the well-known object of his mission The address was listened to with deep attention, and frequently interrupted by bursts of applause. In concluding his remarks. Kossuth quoted a passage from Senator Seward's speech on Intervention, which elicited a hearty round in honor of the distinguished citizen of Auburn. material aid.

The proceeds of this meeting amount to nearly (C00. In addition to this sum Messrs. Derby Miller, publishers," of this place, presented Kossuth with $100 44 material aid" and a copy of Hkacley8 Life of Kossuth. As an indication of the interest felt in the country with reference to Hungary and its leader, it may not be amiss to state that over 17,000 copies of this work have been sold since February last. There are still some additional sums of money to come in and it thought that a purse of about 31,000 in all will be made up as the proceeds of the brief visit to Auburn.

1 the seminary, ctica. This evening the students of the Theological Seminary waited on Kossuth, and through Mr. Seeley, one of their number, presented their token of sympathy and hope. The Governor responded in his usual happy manner. Rev.

pr. IIickok, President of the Seminary, and who soon succeeds Dr. Nott at Union College, was at the meeting in the Church, and addressed the Throne of Grace in a fervent manner. Like the venerable President of Union College, he is a thorough-going advocate of Kossuth's cause. A Committee from Seneca Falls, and another from Utica, also attended upon him, and urged the claims of their citizens to, a visit but Kossuth stated that he would be quite nnable to make any additional engagements.

A SERENADE. The eveningclosed with a serenade by a fine Brass Bandr whose music timed the procession and enlivened the exercises of the meeting during the afternoon. The day will long be remembered by those who participated in its scenes, whether citizen or 6tranger. s. LATEST INTELLIGENCE i2 Celeflrapb to tbc XctoUTorfc Caflj Cfntcs.

The Democratic National Convention. Baltimore, Monday, May 31. Our city is perfectly thronged, and great excitement prevails. The Bucha nanites are working hard, determined on success. They are now holding a Caucus with the Virginia Delegates, and will stick to him to the last.

General Butler has written a letter declining in favor of Cass, who, he says, is entitled to the nomination. He calls on his friends to vote for Cass, and to consider him out of the field so long as Cass is in it. It is thought that the friends of Cass will unite on Bctler, should they be compelled to desert their favorite. The Cassites suspect the Maryland Delegates as inclined to go over to Douglas on the grounds of expediency. Lookers-on generally think that Douglas or Butler will be nominated.

The Georgia difficulty has not been settled as rumored. Governor Lumpkin stands firm for Cass and will contest the seats. Mississippi is amicably arranged, and has forty-six delegates who claim seats on the floor. Either John Davis, of Indiana, or Cave John-son, will be president of the Convention. An excited and long session is anticipated.

The impression still is that Cass must go to the wall, and Buchanan also. The friends of Gen. Houston are urging his claims with great energy. The New -York delegation are mum, it is said, they are divided between Douglass and Cass. Portland (Me.) Whig Convention.

During a spirited discussion on the second section of the Church Extension report, the Select Committee on the first section relating to education reported, proposing the? organization of-a Western Education Society at Cincinnati, enjoining on the Presbyteries to make collections for Una cause, and either to expend their funds themselves, or pay them over to any of the Ed a cation Societies. The report was unanimously adopted. The second section was then voted oa, clause by clause. "A few amendments were made and the report was adopted.

This section prescribes a course of action for the Presbytery on Home Missions, without infringing upon the functions of the Home Missionary Society, aad takes measures for aiding feeble Churches ia erecting edifices. It appoints a Committeo of five to confer with the Society so ss to make the two agencies harmonious. The narrative was read by the Rev. Mr. Fisher, and the appeal from the Missouri Synod taken up and discussed.

In the afternoon an ineffectual effort was made to bring tip resolutions recommending non-action on Anti-Slavery memorials. After passing resolutions of thanks to the Committeo of Arrangements, officers, the Assembly adjourned until 8 o'clock to-night, when the third sectloa of the Church Extension report is the special order.

WasHiKGTORvMonday, May 31. Mr. Gwin moved to postpone the morning business, to take up the Deficiency bill, with a view of allowing Mr. Hunter to address the Senate on it. Mr.

Missus said it has been usual, for several years past, on the approach of a Convention to nominate Presidential candidates, for the Senate to adjourn, so aa to avoid the necessity of transacting business with a mere quorum. With that view, he moved that when the Senate adjourns, it adjourn to Thursday next. Mr. Cass inquired whether it would be necessary to make any order lor putting the Senate Chamber in Summer trim The Chair said thst would be done without any order. Mr.

Cass thought this a good opportunity to make Summer arrangements. Mr. Hale remarked, if that be so, we shall want some cause for adjourning when the Whig Convention meets, and I don't know What the cause ran be. The motion to adjourn over to Thursday was agreed to. deficiency appropriations.

The Deficiency BUI was then taken up, the question being on the third reading, Mr. Hunter replied to the remarks of Mr. Pearce, heretofore delivered by him in defence of the Administration. Mr. Pearce replied to Mr.

Hunter, further defending the administration against the charge of extravagance, and considering it entitled to the credit of economy. Mr. Weller, in the course of the debate, said he should hereafter speak in defence of the Mexican Boundary Commission, at least so far as he was personally concerned. Mr. Houston, in answer to an inquiry, complained of the defenceless condition of the citizens of Texas and Ntw-Mexico.

The troops stationed there afforded but little protection: whereas, before Texas was annexed, for two years they had peace with the Indians. Mr. Pearce had no doubt that if the preservation of peace on the Texas border was an object of national importance, the people would know into whose hands to commit national interests. He next replied to Mr. Borland's charges against the administration.

Mr. Borland made a few remarks in vindication of his former statements, repeating that certain expenditures were incurred by the executive without authority of law. Mr. Dawson fallowed in an earnest defence of the administration, and deprecating these assaults on the administration at this time, just on the eve of the Presidential Conventions. Mr.

Gwin spoke briefly, denying that he charged the administration with corruption. He only charged it with extravagant wjth ho considered quite another thing. Mr. Houston having been unexpectedly drawn into this discussion, wished to explain further, that many of the evils growing up on the frontier of Texas had been owing to the appointment of incompetent agents. He thought the Administration had made appointments from favoritism, and had treated the people of Texas with great indignity, by appointing persons disqualified in every respect for their situations.

He earnestly solicited protection for the people of that frontier. He then made a few remarks in reference to the next Presidency, hut introduced no new points.

The Missouri Railroad bill, from the House, then came up, and an earnest effort was made to concur in their amendment and pass it, but no quorum voting, the Senate adjourned to Thursday.

The Jury being sworn, the investigation waa proceeded with, and the following testimony was taken, which shows, it was impossible for human eye to detect the flaw in the iron plate, that was blown off with a pressure of only fourteen inches of steam. The first witness called, James 3Ioteatt being duly sworn, said I reside at No. 73 Cannon-street'; 1 am a machinist and engineer, and in the employ of Messrs. Secor, Braisted I was at work on the steamboat ulna City, on Saturday, at the time of the explosion, which took place between 3 and 3i o'clock we commenced to up steam about 10 o'clock, A.M.; we commenced between 1 and o'clock, P.M., to work the engine there was about fourteen pounds of steam to the square inch at this time we had worked the engine by hand for some time we attempted to hook her on, and found that the lifting rods hung on to the trip shaft we worked a while longer by hand, then we stopicd the engine and took out the trift shaft I had just commenced to chip a little out of the shaft, to give it clearance during the time of the chipping, I heard something give way looking around I observed the steam escaping from between ths planks, which cover over the boiler 1 was standing on the main deck at this time 1 then ran off to the after guard, and upon recovering a little, I went in upon the deck again, and found Charles Gorman, the engineer of the boat, at the air pump I assisted in getting him out on to the after guard, after which II went and assisted in taking oat the Captain front between the Captain's office and the after saloon I afterwards went into the fire-room and found John B. Curtis, (the foreman in constructing the engine with assistance, got him out on learning the fires were still under the boilers, I went down and 'drew one of off, and left the other burning the said boiler waa a new one to the best of my knowledge 1 have examined the boiler in question, both inside and outside, and the only conclusion I can come to in relation to the giving way of the boiler is, that there must have been a flaw in ths plate of the boiler I believe the boiler was intended to carry 3ft pounds of steam to the square inch, and that 14 pounds of a team could not have exploded the boiled had not the imperfection been in the iron plate I examined the quantity of water less than half an hour prior to the explosion, and there was then four cocks of star it ia difficult to detect flaws in the iron unless they are very bad ones.

T. W. Slater, being duly sworn, says, I reside at No. 307 Monroe-at. I am an engineer and machinist, employed the Allaire works.

The engine was stopped at the time of the explosion. We had stopped to clear the trip shaft, which was binding upon the lifting rods I had looked at the guage a few minutes before, and found only fourteen pounds of steam I consider an utter impossibility for that amount of steam to have exploded the boiler, had it been sound I believe there was a flaw in the iron there might have been a flaw there and the sharpest eye about the establishment would not detect it some parts of the iron, revealed by the explosion of the boiler, seemed good and sound; after I had taken breath and waa returning, 1 stumbled over the Captain, there was so much steam I had to grope my way. 1 Ftter McMillan, being duly sworn, ssys: I reside at No. 208 Grand-street, Williamsburg; I am a practical engineer 1 am Ully acquainted with the material that was used in constructing the boiler in question, as well as of all others bjiilt at the Allaire Works, so far as it is possible to be the managers of the Allaire Works invariably order ths best of Pennsylvania plate iron for boilers on Saturday morning the machinery of the steamer Eastern City was ready for. trial; I ascertained from Curtis that he would be ready to start the engine about 2 o'clock P.

M-; saw the. fires started, and tried the gusge cocks, tio, found them full of water; I asked Mr. Curtis if he had steam enough to start the engine he said be thought: he had I went in and looked at the steam-gusge, and found 7) pounds of steam on Itold him that was sufficient, and to commence working the engine, which he' did in a few minutes I think he worked the engine himself for ten or fifteen minutes he then gave the working over to Mr. Mowatt, and he and myself went and examined every part of the engine, aa is the usual custom when first putting on steam, wa found the butt end of the connecting rod," a little "slack," and required keying up;" ws stopped the engine for minute to da so, and then started it again wa then ret urn. to the engine-room Mr.

Curtis then worked a few rerolationa, aad 1 hooked the engine on, when we ascertained that the opposite lining rod hungup, we then bad to atop instantly 1 unhooked the engine myself; Mr. Cnrtia found that, from the fact of the expansion of the steam-chest, the lining rods bora heavy upon the back part of tha trip shaft, which waa not attached to the steam shaft, but to the deck beams; the only remedy in the ease waa to take the trip shaft out, which was done Mr. Curtis gave orders to chip off a small piece from the back part of the trip shaft, and Mr. Mow-alt commenced to do it; Mr. Curtis then turned and went into ths previous to tha trip shaft being Mr.

Cnrtia gave orders to the Bremen to open the furnace doors, which, to my knowledge, wtre obeyed 1 followed Mr. Curtis into ths 1 then saw some person carrying ths captain aft 1 saw tba captain and Mr. Curtis lying oa the main deck I immediately went for a physician, and did not ace any of the other injured men when I returned with the doctor, Mr. Curtis was dead Captain Steams was taken to the hotel of Mr. Hanfield, in Grand street; I think the accident was swing to a flaw ia4hs boiler-plate i aaw the flaw, and the edge of tha iron seemed imperfect had it been possible for tha human eye to have seen the flaw, it would have been discovered, at the time the plate waa laid out; 1 examined the in-aide of the boiler, thia morning, and found the asaai number of braces, in it neither more nor leas.
