THE EVENING POST: CITY INTELLIGENCE. THE NEW YORK INSTITUTION FOR THE BLIND.The thirteenth annual report of the managers of this institution has been in our hands for some time. From it we obtain the following interesting facts. There are now ope hundred and thirty-six inmates, of which one hundred and thirteen are beneficiaries of this state, seven beneficiaries of New Jersey, two are pay pupils, two are supported by the Commissioners of Emigration, three by the funds of the institation, and twenty maintain themselves by their own labor. Among these has occurred only one death, and that was a case in which the elements of disease were already developing when the person was received.

The managers wish to set forth prominently the fact, that the institution is one for the moral, intellectual and physical education of the pupils, rather than an asylum for those whose physical and mental infirmities render them incapable of improvement, and when this imbecility appears evident, the unfortunate person is discharged as a subject unfit for this particular charity. It may be interesting to our readers to know the class of studies pursued in this institution, and the number of pupils in each branch. Number of pupils pursuing each of various branchesChemistry, 12; Moral Philosophy, 20; Political Economy, 20; Algebra, Writing, Analysis, 20; History, 27 Grammar, 27; Natural Philosophy, 13; Astronomy, 14; Arithmetic, 53 Spelling and definitions, 23; Spelling, 30 Geography, 53 Reading, 65; Mental Arithmetic, 30. The managers have taken the necessary steps to secure the construction of a suitable building to be used as a workhouse and wareroom for the sale of articles manufactured, and as a means of support for those who have been through the course of instruc. tion and have acquired a trade.

They will find here a home and a ready market for their labor. The income of the institution for the past year has been $30,622 56, and its expenditures $27,782 92, leaving a balance in the treasury on the 31st of December, of $839 04. THE MECHANICS' SOCIETY SCHOOL. -The annual examination of this school commences to-day at 2 o'clock P. and will occupy from 2 to 5 o'clock P.

and in the evening will commence at 7 o'clock. The examination, exhibitions of drawings, needle work, of the pupils, will continue until Thursday evening, when the premiums and diplomas will be distributed. The male department is under the charge of Mr. James N. McElligott, recently known as the Classical Principal of the Collegiate School of this city.

The female department is under the charge of Miss Mary Y. Bean, who has for many years given satisfaction as principal of this department. A line of Omnibus Steamboats has been projected to run between the upper and lower parts of the city on the East and North Rivers, for the accommodation of up town residents. This is a capital plan, and we have no doubt will prove profitable during the summer months. A chance of enjoying a short sail, and of inhaling the pure air from the river, instead of sweltering in perspiration and dust in a crowded omnibus, will be availed of by multitudes, not only of those who are going to and from their places of business, but by others for recreation, or refreshment merely.

THE U. S. MARSHAL. -An a year since, the U. S.

Marshal made a seizure, the amount of which he is said to have deposited to the credit of the United States, but which has never been drawn out. The following is a copy of the order of the court, made on Saturday, April 21st The United States vs. The bark Laurens, her tackle, reading and filing an affidavit and proof of service of notice of motion, and on motion of Mr. J.

The building and a small quantity of turpentine was consumed. It is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary, as no fire had been used in the building in two weeks.

SPECIE the Anamaloe, from the Coast of Africa, four thousand and fifty dollars and three hundred and forty-four ounces gold dust, by the Nile, from Honduras; eight thousand dollars by the Almira, from Maracaibo, and one box of old silver. A brick Roman Catholic church is nearly ready for roofing, on the corner of 27th street and Madison avenue. The cross streets between the 4th and 5th avenues above 32d street, are beginning to be accurately graded, and made ready for building upon. We understand that Mr. Isaac Hone has received an office in the New York Custom House.

It is understood that the new Naval Officer commences his duties to-day. A new Episcopal church, constructed of wood, in the Gothic style, is being erected in Lexington avenue, at the foot of Murray Hill. The horse chestnut trees are now beginning to blossom, and the trees generally are beginning to leaf. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. UNited STATES DISTRICT COURT -Before Judge Betts.

DREADFUL RAVAGES OF THE CHOLERA IN MEXICO. -COL. WEBB'S EXPEDITION, New Orleans Picayune of the 15th contains a letter from Mexico, dated the 31st of March, through which we learn that the cholera was making terrible ravages in the neighborhood of the Rio Grande. Some of the towns are said to be nearly depopulated from the effects of this awful scourge, and in Camargo upwards of 250 have already died. The same letter mentions that another member of Col.

Webb's party, named Hall, had died. The Colonel himself was confined to his bed by a sprained ancle, but expected to resume his journey, with about fifteen of his company, in ten days. The remainder of his men were preparing to return home. A GROSS are daily received through the post office from the northern cities, addressed to gentlemen here, enclosing schemes of lotteries. From the style of the address, it is evident that the lottery agents must use a city directory or an equivalent.

The postage on such letters is not paid, of course, and a gentleman is mulcted in that sum, as well as annoyed by the receipt of a letter containing nothing but a worthless lottery scheme. The post office would doubtless refund the postage but often it is more trouble to reclaim it than it is worth. O. Pic. The death of Mrs.

Maria Smith, wife of the Hon. Truman Smith, United States Senator, of Connecticut, is announced in the Philadelphia papers, as having occurred on Friday last, at the residence of Chas. Treichel, near that city. Mrs. S.

His assortment consists of substantial furniture, which he can recommend, since it is made under his own personal supervision, and at reasonable prices. To-morrow commences probably the finest sale of beautiful paintings, works of art, which has taken place in this city for many years. They are the property of Charles De La Forest, late Consul General of France. He has been upwards of forty years in picking up this collection, and no expense has been spared by him, either in this country or Europe, and being now about to leave for France, has selected Messrs. Leeds to dispose of collection.

Someof his pictures are valued as high as $10,000. Those who have not had the opportunity to inspect whether they purchase or not, Should apply to the auctioneer for tickets of admission at once. The house has been thronged from morning until night sinco the rooms were opened for inspection. SALE OF OLD WINES-Pells Co. will sell at auction at their store in Wall street, to-morrow, the large stock of old wine belonging to William very Niblo, much of which was in his possession at the old Bank Coffee House, corner of William and Pine streets.

There is old Madeira, Sherry, Port and other wines. Also, old Pale and Brown Brandies and Scotch Whiskey, well worthy the attention of connoiseurs. The character of the wines and the fact that Mr. Niblo has excluded all other wines from this sale, will doubtless attract a large company, NEW YORK, MONDAY, APRIL 23, 1849. were also introduced, and finally his confession to an officer of this city, after his arrest here.

This confession was to the effect that he and his brothers obtained an impression of the lock of putty, while it was standing in Fulton street; that from this impression they made a key of wire that they proceeded to Augusta, and that on the night of the robbery he knocked a hole wall, and his brother went in and passed out the money. At the time of this confession, Wingate supposed that he was not to be proceeded against criminally. The jury convicted him after a short absence. His counsel gave not ice of a motion in arrest of sentence, in consequence of flaw in the Traveller. THE EVENING POST.

MONDAY EVENING, APRIL 23. WILLIAM C. BRYANT 18 Nassau street. UNION WITH HARMONY. NOTICE.

We beg our subscribers and friends to bear in mind that, attached to the Evening Post Office is a well appointed Book and Job Printing establishment, preexecute any kind of printing that may be required. Special attention will be given to the printing of law cases and points, with accuracy, neatness and despatch. We trust that our claims upon the good will of our personal, political and professional friends, may not be overlooked. Our readers will remember an announcement made in our columns a few days since, that a committee had been appointed by each wing of the democratic party in the legislature of Wisconsin, for the purpose of conferring together, upon the subject of union, and if practicable, to present some basis for a coalition which would be acceptable to both. On the 30th of March last, the democratic members were called together in the Senate Chamber of the Capitol at Madison, to hear the report.

The Hon. John W. Boyd of the Senate, Chairman of one of the Committees, then submitted the followthe basis for a union upon which ing resolutions, as the committees bad united: Resolved, That while we will faithfully adhere to all the compromises of the Constitution, and maintain all the reserved rights of the States, we declare, since the crisis has arrived when that question must be hostility to the extension met, our uncompromising Territory of the United States of slavery into any which is now free. Resolved, That in organizing Governments and exis- for New Mexico and California, the introduction tence of slavery in these Territories should be posiResolved, That there should be no more slave tively prohibited by act of Congress. States admitted into the Federal Union.

Resolved, That all National laws recognizing or slavery or the slave trade in the District of Columbia, or any other place, under the control of sustaining the Federal Government, ought to be immediately repealed. Resolved, That the Public Lands should be granted to actual settlers in limited quantities, at the cost be placed to the quantity of land which shall hereafof the survey and transfer and that a limit ought to ter be acquired and held by any person at any one time. Resolved, That we demand cheap postage, a retrenchment of the expenses of the general government, the abolition of all unnecessary offices and salaries, and the election by the people of all civil officers in the service of the government, so far as the same may be practicable. Resolved, That Congress has the constitutional power, and ought to make appropriations from the notional treasury, for river and harbor improvements, to facilitate and protest commerce between the United States and Foreign Nations such approp.iations to be governed by a sound discretion, and a due to the national welfare. Resolved, That we approve of the principle of free and unrestrained Trade, and will demand its adoption by our government as soon as practicable, believing that the most fair and equal mode of raising the revenue necessary to defray the expenses of the government is, by a direct tax upon property.

Resolved, That we opposed the creation of a National Bank by Congress, and believe that the fiscal affairs of the government, both state and national, should be kept entirely separate from banks and banking associations, and its revenues should be collected and disbursed by responsible agents of the government, through the Independent Treasury. Resolved, That we are in favor of a liberal exemption of real and personal property from forced sale on execution, believing it both just and humane. Resolved, That we are in favor equel and impartial sufferage. The above resolutions were taken up separately by the meeting, and after considerable discussion, were all adopted with great unanimity. Hon.

JOHN W. BOYD, of Walworth, then offered the following preamble and resolutions, it appears that the principles held by the great majority of the Democtatic party, and of the Free Soil party, upon the leading political topics of the day, are the same; and whereas these principles can be far more effectually propagated by the; united action of all the friends of those principles, therefore. Resolved, That we recommend that the State Central Committee of the democratic organization, and the State Central Cummittee of the free democratic organization, unite in calling a state convention at the capitol in Madison, on the second Wednesday September next, at 12 o'elock, to be composed of two delegates from each Assembly district, for the purpose of making nominations for state officers. Kesolved, That we recommend to our friends in all parts of the state to abandon their separate organizations, and join hands and hearts in pushing forward the true principles of freedom and democracy. Resolved, That we further recommend a union and concert of action between the several committees of the separate organizations throughout the state, and that where there are central committees of each organization in the several towns, counties or districts, we recommend them to unite in calling union conventions by a joint call, agreeing upon the time and place.

The above resolutions were adopted by the meeting without a dissenting vote. As an evidence of the good faith in which the parties are proceeding to cement this union, we notice with pleasure that Gov. Doty heads the call for a union meeting in Winnebago county. The democracy of Wisconsin have set an example which should commend itseif to every friend of democratic principles in the country. They entertained no differences of opinion, and they therefore put away the folly of distict organizations.

The section which, under the plea of regular nominations, had been led into the support of a pro-slavery candidate for the Presidency at the last election, come forward boldly, admit their error, and ask that in organizing the new territories, slavery may be positively prohibited by act of Congress They likewise unite upon all the great democratic issues, and conclude with directing the separate organization to be superseded by a convention to be held at the call of both sections on the second Wednesday of September. We regret that the same magnanimity and sincerity had not actuated the hunker members of our legislature, and that they had not united with the democratic portion of that body upon a set of principles, which, like those above quoted, reflect the public sentiments of their constituents. Had they done so, the democratic party in this state might look forward next winter to the prospect of a democratic legislature once more in session at Albany, and to the restoration of the union and with it the strength of the democratic party of New York. It is not probable that a single township in this state could be found to vote against one of the resolutions laid down in the Wisconsin platform; that platform corresponds in all material points with the one which the free democracy of this state have occupied for the past two years, but the dissenting section of the party rather than admit their error, and do what they can to atone for the utter dismemberment of the democratic party of the state, for which they are primarily responsible, prefer to stand where they stood at the Presidential election, adrocating a diffusion of slavery," and as the unrelenting opponents of any proviso against its farther extension. It was in the power of the nine dissenting or hunker members of the legislature--there were but nine of them all -to have rendered a more substantial service to the democratic party by following the example of the Casa democrats of Wieconsin, in our late legislative caucus at Albany, than they can ever expect to render in any other way, or upon any other occasion.

They had not the foresight or the honesty to avail themselves of the opportunity, and if whig counsels prevail another year in this state, with them and their advisers rests the responsibility. Should the free soil democrats of the state modify their position in any particular, they would do violence to the sentiments of nine-tenths of the whole democratic party: If the dissenting hunkers were to adopt the policy of the free democracy they would thereby conform to the wishes and views of nine-tenths of their own political allies. We trust that the motives of those whose political existence and consideration thrives upon these dissensions of the democratic party may be exposed and their counsels rejected, and that no unmanly wilfulness or pride may be permitted so to disaffect our ranks as to perpetuate the elevation of a party and principles to which all sections of the democratic party are alike hostile. Mr. BANCROFT'S HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES.

-In alluding to the report that the fourth volume of this masterly work may be expected to appear in September next, the Boston Republican says that the three volumes already published complete the history of the Colonization of the Uniten States, and adds very justly: They have been regarded by competent authorities, at home and abroad, as among the most splendid contributions to the historical literature of our age. We are happy to know that Mr. Bancroft has been most successfal, during his residence in England and in his visit to Paris, in obtaining materials of unexpected importance for the history of the American Revolution. The leisure which he will now have, will be devoted, as we unders.and, to the completion of this great work. We mistake much if the drama of Independence, under his hands, does not assume a new interest and dignity." ANOTHER RICHMOND IN THE H.

Wheaton Hewit proposes to commence a course of Shakesperian readings in the University Chapel, on Wednesday evening next, with the play of Hamlet. If this is one of the fruits of Mrs. Butler's recent labors in the same department, we have another reason for rejoicing in them. We hope that competent publie readers may be so multiplied, that Shakespeare may be brought, like the Croton water, to every man's door.

SENATORS BY THE PEOPLE.The foliowing resolution passed the Senate of Wisconsin, by a vote of 12 to 3. The vote in the House we do not remember. Joint Resolution Relative to a proposed Amendment to the Constitution of the Vuiled States, concerning the election of Senators in Congress. Whereas it is more in accordance with our republican institutions to give to the people the power of electing all officers of government as far as practicable; therefore Resolved, That our senators in Congress be instructed, and our representatives requested, to propose in Congress an amendinent to the Constitution of the United States, to the effect that the people, instead of the Legislatures of the several states, shall hereafter elect their senators in Congress by general ticket." Died, On Wednesday, March 21st, at Camp Ringgold, Starr County, Texas, of Asiatic cholera, Dr. RAVAUD REARNY.

of New York city, in the 27th year of his age, nephew of the late Gen Kearney, US and son of the late Rev. Kearny. The above lines tell a story that will be read with sincere regret by many, beyond the narrower circle of kin and friendship, within which, it will awaken those deeper emotions, to which it is painful for us even to allude. Dr. Kearny was a young man of very fine promise, the object of many warm affections and high expectations.

A devoted student of his profession, he had graduated with distinction, and with the friendship as well as the official approbation of his professors. Many poor family in this city will long remember the unwearied zeal of his kindness and charity. The testimonials of his superior merit, caused his selection for the responsible post of physician to Col. Webb's California expedition, to the duties and dangers of which he has himself fallen a noble victim. He was a young man of singular purity of heart and life; generous, manly, high-minded, and Christian.

From a letter, from a relative who was with him in his last momenta, it appears that it was to his exposure and exertions in the sun among the sick of his company, that his own attack and its fatal result are attributable. Of all the company, as it said by a friend before its departure, he was the only one who had no physician in case of need. Seldom has the truth taught by the poetic instinct in all times, been more forcibly brought home to us, than in this instance, that "whom the gods love die young." SARTAIN'S UNION MAGAZINE OF LITERATURE AND ARTS FOR -This is an excellent number, of an excellent magazine. The most agreeable feature for the month is Mr. Longfellow's beautiful and pathetic poem Resignation," (which will be found on our first page,) but there are many other articles of more than usual merit, among which may be instancedA Sketch of Magnetism among the Shakers, by Miss Sedgwick, which we also lay before our readers today; Mrs.

Kirkland's English Characteristics, and Mrs. Kinney's graccful Ode to Health. The engravings, by which this periodical is truly embellished, are far above mediocrity. The subjects are happily chosen and are executed with skill. Mr.

Sartain's Ruth and Boaz," after an original by Rothermel, is masterly. Equal praise may be awarded to The Doves," after a most beautiful design by Count d'Orsay. The agents of this excellent magazine are Messrs. Dewitt Davenport, Tribune Building. THE WAY THE RIGHTS OF WOMEN ARE VINDICATED IN -Some years sinee a man residing in Patriot, married a young lady residing in the same place.

After they had been married some five years, the parties were blessed with two children, and things went smoothly on until it was discovered that the husband had fallen desperately in love with young woman living in the family. Finally, the husband eloped with the girl to parts unknown, leaving his lawful wife and children without a protector, husband or father. A few days since, says the Louisville Democrat of the 17th a storeboat arrived at Patriot, when, by dint of observation, it was discovered that the husband was the proprietor of the boat, and also that his mistress was on board. The news was spread throughout the town, and, as a matter of course, it soon reached the ears of the deserted wife, who still resided there. The wife, on learning that the parties still lived together as man and wife, goes and arms herself, and proceeds to the boat with a hatchet in one hand and pistol in the other, intent on slaying the husband and the wretch that seduced him.

The woman, who was on board of the boat, noticed her coming, and soon discovered that there was no chance for escape, save with a "fight or a foot She accordingly took to her heels, with the injured wife in pursuit, who overtook her after running some distance, and inflicted several fearful and dangerous wounds on her person with the hatchet which she held in her right hand, and would surely have murdered her victim, had it not been for the interference of some byestanders. The husband effected his escape, and at last accounts was on board of a er descending the Ohio river. The sympathy of the people were in favor of the injured wife; and it has been intimated to us that the residents of that town had actually prepared a pot of tar and feathers for the renegade husband and his lady-love; after the use of which, they had concluded to ride the parties on a rail, and send the store boat adrift. The hus. band is known to be a regular thief, who only a short time sines stole a coat from Captain Summons, of the Ben Franklin, while travelling from Cincinnati to Patriot, on his boat.

The mistress is still in Patriot with the store boat, under the protection of the police and physicians -The jury in Baltimore in the case of Conrad Wintner, alias Vender, for the murder of Mrs. Cooper, after holding out some time, returned, late on' Saturday night, a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree. -William K.

Latest from Fort Independence, of the Miseouri INDEPENDENCE, April 7, 1849. Messrs. Editors Taking advantage of a few pleaG. sant W. Paul, of your city, which is located on the to-day, I made a visit to the camp of Lt.

hours Santa Fe road, about ten miles from town. As good luck would have it, I reached the camp just as the company were sitting readily down to accepted dinner, an and invitation feeling to in that mood, very dine, first regaling myself with a little of the choice. Camp fare is generally supposed to it; to be bat no if great luxury to one unaccustomed the board spread in the camp their of the captain on this occasion, when none but own company were expected to partake, is to 66 be taken as a else" specimen, then am willing to have nothing for the remainder of my days. Suffice it to say, excepting that the variety of dishes, the dinner was equal to set at any of your hotels. It was the intention of Lieut.

Paul, when he left your city to proceed forthwith on a trip, via Santa Fe, but a slight indisposition, from which he has now entirely recovered, and other causes, induced him to prolong the time for starting, and take the South Pass route. The company is well outfitted of which was this purchased in St. Louis--and although stock at place informed is held as I have previously quoted, Lieut. Paul me that the mules for which he paid $70 the head in St. Louis, he has been offered $100 per head since his arrival at Independence.

The company consists of Lieut G. W. Paul, St. Louis; H. Martin, Boston; James Sharp, Independence; Wm.

Webb, Shorty Ray, and J. W. Harper, of Independence, Mo. These two companies intend travelling together, and will move on Monday next. This is admitted to be rather early to start, the grass being yet too light for the stock; they pack sufficient feed to last them about twenty days.

Their wagons are light built, and mules in excellent order, and they seem sanguine of making the trip in sixty-five days. They are provided with every thing necessary for their comfort and protection, and all in good cheer. Michigan has three small companies in the field, ready to move. The first consists of George Kirland, George Wethington, Horace Beeby, Wm. Wilson, H.

CALIFORNIA. Correspondence of the Evening Post, NEWBURGH, April 21. A fire broke out in Newburgh, on Saturday night, about 8 o'clock, in a stable, adjacent to the lumber yard of P. H. Foster.

Before the engines could be brought to bear on it, the flames had communicated to the pine shingles and lumber, which being very dry, burnt with great rapidity. It was with difficulty that the wooden buildings were saved, owing to the intense heat. Had the wind been high the entire street must have been swept by the fire. Mr. Foster was insured to the amount of about $2000.

He had permitted another of his policies to expire about three weeks previous, and he consequently will be a loser, but to what extent it is impossible to ascertain at this time. A young man, Mr. Samuel Felter, son of the landlord of the United States Hotel, was injured by a missile thrown by an Irishman who had been a party to a fight which took place at the time. Mr. Felter was attending to his duties as a fireman, and was totally unconscious of any difficulty.

A horse that was in the stable was badly burnt. THOMAS A. COOPER, regret to state, that this distinguished gentleman died on Saturday, about four o'clock in the afternoon, at the residence, in Bristol, Pennsylvania, of his son-in-law, Mr. Robt. Tyler.

He was for many years the leading American tragedian, and enjoyed a wide-extended popularity. He retired from his profession ten or fifteen years ago, since which time he has filled several political offices of trust with respectability and honor. HENRY HERZ and his party are about to perform at Charleston. COL. WILLIANS, Engineer of the State of Louisiana died at New Orleans on the 13th inst.

The Grievances of the Bakers. the Evening A very large and respectable class of producers in this city have to pay, for the privilege of carrying on their business, a number of taxes which are unequal as well as unjust. I mean the bakers. When one of these men goes to the landlord, he is met with the answer that he can't have a in his house, unless he has an extra rent. The baker offers to build the ovens, and take good care of the house, and pay the rent punctually.

The landlord, in reply, requires one hundred dollars extra, and good security. The applicant finally takes the house, but he must have water. He applies for the Croton, and is told that he has an extra charge to pay, according to the quantity of flour he uses in a week. His tax is made out, and he finds, to his surprise, that unless he pays two or three times as much as his neighbor, who does not use the Croton in the same way, he cannot have the water. Then he wants to be insured, and is charged an additional one-and-a-half, two, or three per cent, when it is safe to say that less bakeries are burned than any other class of buildings in the oity, for work is going on both day and night.

Then another new tax has been lately laid. He is required to cart away his own ashes, for the new contract for the cleaning of streets makes no proviso for taking away the ashes he produces. By the time he really gets established in business he finds another formidable tax that grinds him more family severely that than all others. He has been supplying a keeps up a good appearance, but neglect to remember the baker when pay day comes. He meets another of the same sort soon after and when all these extra taxes are paid, and many of his bills lost, he is obliged to inform his flour merchant that his customers have not paid up, and he has not the money.

The merchant replies that it is all right, but flour suddenly rises in that store, and the baker is compelled to submit to this extra tax for credit.The final result of all this is that the baker fails and is cast out of the business world as unworthy of confidence. I have not given you all the grievances of of business men, but I hope at least to draw attention to them and to see a reform before I quit the trade, AN OLD BARES AND Postscript. From the Philadelphia Ledger. -The bark Warwick. -This vessel, bound to California, left on Saturday afternoon, about 2 o'clock.

Her departure was witnessed by a large number of spectators, crowded upon the adjacent wharves. She had twenty-nine passengers in all, whose character and connexions are of the highest respectability. The late wet weather has delayed the departure of most of the vessels now up for California. 'The ship Susan Owens, Captain Barclay, will leave on Wednesday, and take the great bulk of the ardent young men now looking forward to California as the Dorado of their hopes. Her passenger list now exceeds 200, and more are expected to arrive from the surrounding country before her day of sailing arrives.

She has a library of mere than 600 volumes, which has been placed in charge of Mr. Samuel Lehman, formerly attached to the Merehants' Exchange Reading Room, as the assistant of Mr. Dean. The Ralph Cross will probably leave brig Meteor is rapidly preparing for her departure, which will probably take place about the close of the week. DEATH OF AN AGED Bird, an aged and wealthy citizen of Philadelphia, died at his residence, on Saturday, in the 71st year of his age.

He leaves an estate of about 000, and but a few years since gave each of his six children $30,000. The deceased was, in early life, a clerk in the Bank of Pennsylvania, but subsequently established himself in a small hardware store at Second and Lombard street, and in this business he accumulated the bulk of his fortune. During the latter years of his life he was afflicted with the loss of sight, which of course, separated him from his business occupations, as well as most of the pleagure of the world. His funeral will take place to-morrow Ledger. the New Orleans Delta of the LATEST FROM steamship Isthmus, Captain Baker, arrived yesterday from Havana.

She left on the 10th inst. Below we give such items from them as we deem of interest to the American reader. Count Alcoy, the Captain-General of Cuba, bad ordered a compilation to be made of all the laws and regulations respecting the entrance, residence, and departure of foreigners, which is publishdd at length in the Gaceta. It is in the form of a code, and comprises ninetyone articles, the details of which sufficiently show the despotic power now wielded by the Spanish authorities over that beautiful and wealthy island. The adoption and execution of laws imposing such restraints and degradation upon the citizens of other countries prove their authors to be destitute of elementary principles of freedom.

The journals from the interior of the island represent that a drought had prevailed for some time, and had done considerable damage. The steamer Isabel arrived at Havana on the 4th instant, from Charleston, and left on her return, on the 10th. The Isthmus arrived on the 6th, from this port; the Falcon on the same day from Chagres, with thirty-seven passengers. The papers are filled with descriptions of the recent religious festivals throughout the island. -This establishment will be crowded tonight, to witness Mr.
