Mr. Cas has given notice of his intention ta moTe again in the matter at some future day, and: yesterday a petition was presented in the Senate in' favor of Atneri- abroad being priVileged to worship, marry, and bury the dead according to the 4 dictate of their own consciences."

Tf tly Thb Press of th United State tost now is teeming notices of another gigantic movement at th way of manifest destiny, about to be made in Central America' a mo ve- ment which evidently has the favorable opinio, if not the positive sanction of the Ameri- Ooverament.

been so successful here, about to be established in the Mosquito country, including the Tsiuabtoport of Baa Juan, on territory purchased of tbe reputed monarch of that country, about equal in area to that of the State of Tennessee. We take it for granted that this movement wfll succeed, for it is in tbe hands of men accustomed to break new coon the to the uses of emulation, od to establish the simple form of Government we have found best adapted to promote the pro neritv and haxmineaa of Out tmuues. What a remarkable faculty our people have in Govern- incut uiaAuig, ass veen uucbh The theorizing statesmen of the old world might take lessons from our backwoodsmen and hardy pioneers, of incalculable advantage in promoting the welfare of the nations be yond the Atlantic. How thoroughly practical we are, the history of Texas and of California abundantly shows. The precedents found in old and musty books have no terrors for us We can make Republics and establish good Governments, on the basis of common sense and common interests, as readily and as natur ally as we erect telegraphs or build railroads and we create these.

Governments just when and just where our outleading influence and our interests nataraOy lead us. We do not propose to disease the Validity of grants made by the Mosquito King. While our Government refuses to acknowledge any pretended rights of Great Britain, as against us, under the Mosquito King, we have noth ing, and can have nothing to do with the Mosquito title as between tbe MosquKians and the Nkaraguans themselves. Nor have we anything to do wh the dispute, if it shall arise, between CoL Kikxky's Colony and Nic aragua. The latter Government admits for eigners to settle upon its territory.

If CoL Kink and his friends avail themselves of their right of self-expatriation and shall be come troublesome subjects, even of Nicaragua, that is their business not ours. If they leave our shores as individuals, or in a com-pany, but not as an armed expedition, there is nothing in the Law of Nations to restrain them, nor in the Law of Nature to condemn them. If there were, then it would be. impossible ever to rescue a country from the disastrous influences of the bad or inefficient rule and abuse of a decaying and degenerate people the wilderness would needs remain a wilderness, until the last savage had vacated it for new-fields or the grave. The new Republic is likely to be established, and Col.

Kinksv has been chosen as its founder, doubtless because be is a tried, practical American pioneer, because he possesses, in a high degree, those characteristics of Ameri cans which lead them to seek and develop new fields of enterprise, whether political or commercial. He will succeed, probably, because, among other reasons, it is largely the interest of himself and his associates to succeed. He seems eminently fitted for tbe post assigned him; having abundantly demonstrated his sagacity and skill as a pioneer, and as a founder' of communities. His life is fail of almost romantic success. He is a native of Pennsylvania started in life for himself at 13 years of age, without friends or means, went early to the West, and founded, if we miatafc tbe now flourishing city of Chicago.

He was among the first of the immigrants to Texas was foremost in the memorable struggles of the Colonists there with the Indians and the Mexicans, and finally built up and governed a community of some ten thousand souls at Corpus Christi, where no white man had been before him. The' substantial reward of his enterprise is the possession of about a million acres of land in Texas, and the confidence and esteem of an who know him. We know nothing of the affairs of this company, under whose title to Mosquitian territory CoL Kumar goes out to establish his colony, nor of the grants themselves, more than is revealed by the statements of the par ties interested. These are secondary matters. The great fact that stands out, is, that CoL Km as with about a thousand resolute Tex-ana, Pennsylvaniana, New-Yorkers, Loosiani-ans, Georgians, and others, is going to develop the soil and commerce of the country, to open its mines, and to teach the inhabitants bow to work, and how to govern themselves.

We can hardly measure the certain results of this enterprise, in tbe future of that part of the world, abounding in an the productions of every clime, believed to be rich in mineral wealth, and occupying a commercial position so important to our own country and to the world at large. They can be estimated only in the light of American character and history. The people of Central America will do well not to oppose this enterprise, but rather to hail it aa one calculated to improve their condition, impart permanence to the institutions of the country, give value, to their property, and arrest their decline. If they could roll back the tide of progress, it would stin be the height of folly to attempt H. But the progress of true American influence over tbe continent is inevitable.

This expedition is but the opening of another chapter in its bistory. i' MMMBaBfaBBMBBMBHB A Notice, with. Advice. Something like a fortnight since we published a letter signed W. S.

Hobtox, Poor Visitor," appealing to the charity of th public on behalf of a poor woman, in the last stages of a mortal diaeaaa, who had been deserted by her husband, sad who, with her little boy, was quite destitute of the necessaries of life. Donations were iar vitod. to SAseas to this office to "Mrs. Hals," where they would be called for. The Editor of the Tinas has received vaxiona donations, amounting in all to $33, and has made various Aorta to aee Mr.

Hoxtok, or to procure eooae knowledge of Mrs. Halb. A notice has bee raisrawd once or twice inviting Mr. Hobtoh to eaU at the office bat hitherto without effect and inquiries saade through various chaanels for the aame object hara Seoved equally. unsvceesafuL This extraordinary 'Hrta created avpieio that the application han it appeared; and wo ahaa eeeeidUctr.

We mav aa well add our advice to th many per- eons who frequently favor us with donation of money to be applied to tbe relief of the solTenag poor, that there is no agency la the City through which such donations may be made with a greater ttrtmintg that they will be well applied than thia. They hare a large and faithful corps of visitors. who make it their special trasioeaa to inquire per sonally into th conditio sad necessities of appli cants for relief, and the to suit the aid to the spe cial emergencies of each particular case. Mediation between the Belligerents. Mr.

StrMWBB offered a resolution that the Committee on Foreign Affairs be directed to consider the expediency of tendering the mediation of the United States to the Governments of Great Britain, France and Turkey, on the one side, and of Russia on the other, in the hope of withdrawing the exist ing controversy between them from the destructive umpirage of war, so that the blessings of peace may be eeenxed to the people of theee nations, and also to the general commerce of the world. So says the report from the United States Sen ate yesterday. If there were the slightest hope that the belligerents would consent to our um pirage, it might be well for them and creditable for us that we step in and do what we can to stay the torrents of blood that are flowing into the Exuine. The grounds of this terrible war are bo slight, the causes that have produced it so frivolous and unsubstantial, one would think that if reason could catch the ears of the combatants for a moment, there might be an accommodation and settlement. Then, aU parties must be heartily sick of their ruinous position.

Russia, now, has nothing more to gain than Bhe possesses, and the allies cannot but confess that they have very much to lose, with little else than very expensive glory to gain. Would they not be thankful to any party that would take off their hands the responsibility of nettling the dispute Probably not. The story is current that Sam Patch has turned op in Australia. When he made his last at Genesee Falls, he went so deep that he thought it safer to keep on than try to get back' again to tbe surface. Our fighting neighbors are in like condition.

They cannot back out. They must go through to the bitter end. Without much question all offers of me diation would be rejected. Moreover, Russia is jealous of our family relations to England. He would hardly consider as a fair mediator, being part of the same, family.

England is distrustful too. She has charged us with coquetting already with her enemy. France has a bone or two to pick with us so soon as she is disengaged, and Turkey would hesitate to entrust the interests of the Crescent to a people, which, from Jong habit, has regarded the Turk's name as a synonym of, or a shade more wicked than that of the heathen. It is a great quarrel, and luckily we are out of it. We ought to hesitate long before put ting in our hand uninvited.

There could be no harm in Senator Scmxbb's resolution though. The more consideration" the Committee will give, the matter the better. We are great when we attend to our own business, it would be very profitable to "con sider" what sort of work we should make at tending to other people's. fjy The Washington Star says Try the experiment of providing that hereafte every speech proposed to be delivered on subject not immediately before the House shall bs filed, in writing, with the official reporter, for publication, just aa it is sow provided that notices of petitions. dec, may be filed with the Clerk, and referred, with out in any manner bringing them in so aa to take up the time of tbe body in proceedings attendant on their It would relieve the House, but how it.

ty We publish in another column a com munication from one of the oldest and mos respectable members of the bar of this State, upon the subject of a Prohibitory Liquor law. He has hitherto been opposed to the principle of such a law, but is now convinced of its necessity and expediency so far as grogshops, bar-rooms and are concerned. The article it written with ability and in a spirit of moderation, and with a force of argument which commend it to attention. We publish it not as expressing our own views, but because it presents view and considerations wen worthy of reflection.

The audianVe was not large but highly intelligent and respectable.

Motxs H. Gbihnbll, the President of the Society, occupied the Chair. Several piece of muaio, including an Ode written for the occasion, were by a select choir. The Oration was de-lirered by William M. Evabtb, of this City.

It was an able and iateresting analysis of the llrrilagt we have received from the Pilgrim Fathers, exceedingly clear ia its argument, and compact and finished in. style. Its length alone precludes its publication in our columns, and any outline we could present of it would do it injustice. A rapid historical aketch of the religious movements which brought about the organisation of the Puritans in England, introduced the fact of their voluntary exile and final settlement in New-England and Mr. Evabts then passed to the analysis of their character as a distinct, civil and religious body, which formed the principal part of tha dis course.

But the traits which moat command atteatioa, both from intrinsic digni ty and th absofbiag influence oa their conduct, are the depth of. their religious eoarrictiooa, the parity of their religious aeatimeataand th fervor of their faitn.
