Delta But UttUtalk of an ad journment of the Court oi-Inquiry, and it i not probable, from the number of wit nesses to be examined that it will soon . adjourn sine die. The general impres sion here, , sinpe the publication of the .' news of the ratification of the treaty, is that 'a speedy peace will follow -the intelligent Mexicans are saneCie of it-. The papers from the interior are full of accounts 01 tne operations 01 tne Americans in the State of San Luis Potosj El Pro greso says : 'A severe conflict took place on the l(3th of March, at Rosales about 60 miles, from Chihuahua, with the Ameri can troops. "The Governor of the State, . and all the officers in the action, were tak en prisoners. The conflict commenced at 9 in the morning, and continued until 6 in the evening. Many were killed and wound ed, on both sides. Fourteen pieces of ar tillery, and more than a thousand muskefs were captured. On the 17th, ('continues the accountj the American forces were allowed to sack the place, and according ly drove their wagons to the houses, and took oft what they wanted, or what was of any use to them." Ofcousse this is the Mexican version, and must be taken with a great deal of allow ance. City of Mexico, April 5, 1848. In reference to the ratification of the treaty by the Mexi can Congress, no difficulty will arise about the section in reference to claims of land in Texas, or the acquired territory, if un connected with any other point. J3ut tak ing this in connection with the alteration in the mode of payment, they may hesitate. We have advices from our correspond ent at Quaretaro to the 3d inst. By them 1 learn that there was then a quorum of the Mexican Congress present, and that they were to meet in the course of a week. Added to this number, there were nine who left this city on Sunday last. We al so learn that the government was in high Spirits, in prospect of peace. They had not then received the news of the ratifica tion of the treaty by the U S Senate. In all directions, the people as well as the State governments, breathe a spirit of peace, and ail express a determination to support the present government. Yours, MUSTANG. There was a general commotion through out the . whole of Europe. Austria was entirely disorganized. -L. A difficulty had arisen between Holland and Russia on account of encouraging Poland The triumph of the people of Hanover had been completed. - . . m . 1 m Russia was flooding Poland witn iroops- Belgium, Prussia and Austria remon strated against the demonstrations made in Paris against their respective govern ments, j l Great excitement existed in Ireland and England. Government had issued a Pro clamation against the Chartist demonstra tions, which were to take place on the 10th inst. forbidding the people to assem ble, which created great excitement, and preparations were making to go on with renewed vigor and determination, Government was using all its power to suppress the attempt at Rebellion in Ire land. Appeals for equals rights were energetic, and declarations made that it was now too late to repeal the Union and that a Re public alone would satisfy the people. Smith O'Brien and delegates from the Repeal Association waited on Lamartine in Paris. He expressed sympathy, but said nothing offensive of England, declar ing the determination of France not to interfere with the internal affairs of other nations. France was quiet. The elections in the National Guards resulted favorably to the republican candidates. Sound Desthoyed By Sou.vd- A tun ing: fork beinj; struck and held over a glass c O " jar produces one continued sound. Now take two tuning forks of the same note, and after fastening a circular piece of card on one of the prongs of each, put a little sealing: wax on one to make it heavier than the other. On striking them both and holding them over the jar, there will be i t r i ! periods oi silence, and periods oi sound. I Ins arises from the fact that sounds pro ceed in waves, and the periods above mentioned are according: as the longer waves arising from one of the forks, over takes and interferes with the shorter waves arising from the other Scientific American. Later From Europe- From the Charleston Courier, April !5 We received at a late hour on Friday night a Telegraphic despatch, giving us the following summary of news, brought by the steamer Sarah Sands, at New-York, which vessel left Liverpool on the 2d inst. An European warhad commenced. The Austrian troops were expelled from" Sar dinia. Poland is in astate of insurrection, Russia was about sending troops South, but were likely to be opposed by Prussia and France. The French army were marching North. Money Consols 81. Stocks dull on the continent, owing to further failures in London. The Grain and Flour Markets dull, in consequence of increased receipts ami fine weather. No change in trade in -Manchester. Leeds woollen market somewhat better. The Chartists in England are, it is stat ed, almost in a state of revolt. The Irish are buying arms of all kinds, and the police are fraternizing with them. Troops have been sent to Scotland, to prevent disturbances there. The Chartists were to meet at Notting ham on the 3d inst. It was previously proposed that they should march into Lon don, all armed, five hundred thousand strong. The Telegraph wires between London and Liverpool were broken when the Sarah Sands left. France is said to have been in a quiet state, with the exception of some petty disturbances among the workmen. All Northern Italy is in full revolt, and the Austrian troops driven before the peo ple in all directions. The report that a Prussian Republic had been formed was premature. The King of Prussia was still on his throne, but was granting concessions to the people to al most any extent demanded. There was probability of a war between Germany and Prussia. Tranquillity prevailed in Austria. It is believed that the Austrians will unite with Germany. The Russian fleet was coming down the Baltic, and cannon had been planted at Elsimore to interrupt it. This force was destined to render assistance to the King of Naples. All Southern Russia was in a state of revolt. Several arrests were made in Spain of persons charged with sedition. The Pope has issued a proclamation ex horting the church to respect Kins. The King of Naples has abdicated, and appeals tor assistance toother JPowers. From the Charleston Courier April 25. STILL LATER FROM EUROPE. Yesterday morning, about 11 o'clock. we received Telegraphic intelligence of tne arrival ot the Ur steamer Acadia, at Boston, from Liverpool, which place she left on the 8th inst., bringing five days la ter intelligence than furnished by the Sarah Sands. ' . In the course of the afternoon, we re ceived from our Baltimore correspondent, the following synopsis of the intelligence she brings, which, it will be seen, is con firmatory of the news published yesterday, in reference to the State of affairs in Eu glaml and Ireland. A New Mineral Useful, in Arts. Mr Iilage, of Sharon, Ohio, has patent ed a mineral discovered in his neighbor hood, which promises to be of great value. When first dug up, it is of the consistence of tallow and gradually hardens in a few days, so as to resemble slate ; and," finally, it becomes as hard as rock. It is of a blue color, is impervious to both water and fire, and admits of the finest polish. When reduced to powder, and mixed up with linseed oil, it has tne appearance of black paint, and may bespread over wood, can vass, &c. Roofs have been guarded by it against firei and as it does not absorb the rain: it protects the rafters from decay. It ! consists of about one-half of silica, one fourth alumina, with proportions of magne ; sia, black oxide, sulphate of iron lime, and carbon.

A HUMANE LAW. The following law should be brought to the notice of the public in every possible shape. Suf fering humanity cries aloud to every legislator to protect it agunst the grinding oppression of labor-saving machinery, becoming more and more oppressive every day: FACTORY LABOR. The Senate and House of Representa tives of Pennsylvania have passed the fol lowing law: "lie it enacted that labor performed during a period of ten hours in any secular day, in all cotton, woolen, silk, pper, bagging, and flax factories, shall be considered a legal day's work, and that hereafter no minor or adult ena-- ed in any such factories shall be holden or required to work more than ten hours in any secular day, or sixty hours in any sec ular week, and that after the fourth day of July, of the present year, no minor shall ueailmittcd as a worker, under the ae of twelve years in any cotton, woolen, silk, or flax factory, within this commonwealth; that if any owner or employer in any such factories aforesaid, shall employ anv such minor, he shall be adjudged to pay a"penal ty of fifty dollars, one-half to the party so employed, and the other half to the Commonwealth, to be recovered in like manner as debts of like amount are now recovered by law. Provided, That noth ing contained in this act shall be constru ed to prevent minors above the age of murteen years Ironi being employed more than ten hours in any day, if the same be done by special contract with their parents or guardians. Scientific American. Liberty. We like Burke's ideas of ,bert7-. e saJS; "Men are qualified for civil liberty, in exact proportion to their disposition to put chains upon their ow n appetites, in proportion as their love of justice is above their rapacity; in pro portion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above their vanity and presumption; in proportion as they are more disposed listen to the counsels of the good and wise in preference to the flat tery of knaves." Scientific American Ether and Chlokotohm. Dr Simp son, of Scotland, has computed that of 300 surgical operations performed with ether and chloioform, fewer proved fatal than is usual in the same cases without these agents. Of . 1088 cases of . amputation in the thigh, with anaesthetid agents, 44 in 100 died; out df 135 cases, with ether and chloroform 33 only died, or 24 in 100. Scientific American.

Experience Confers Knowledge A reverend gentleman of Philadelphia, preaching the othereveningupon the opera, said that people rushed in crowds to bear a profligate woman sing, and more than insinuated that all the women connected with the opera were licentious. We dare say that he knows all about it; but tjie less the reverend gentleman gives of his per sonal experience, the better for the mor als of his congregation John Donkey. The Monarchy safe in England. A leading political economist, (who by the way is horribly henpecked, and never dares say his soul is his own, except at a political meeting,) expresses the opinion that the British tiironeis safe, at least dur ing the life of the Queen. ' What," says our philosopher, "dethrone a woman? Re bel against a petticoat! The thing is. im possible." This, to the holders of British consols, will be consol-atoryi John Don Interesting and InstuucStive. The predictions and speculations of the country editors respecting the French revolution. Compared with these gentlemen?' Nehe miah was a John-Donkey, and Bacons a booby. Vive la bag beg bardon, la Re publujuel John Donkey. The Post Office Department has just gone through the annual process of letting to contract the entire mail service through out a fourth part of the Union. The States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Ohio compose the section that is placed under new contracts for the transportation of the mails by the recent letting. We are informed that, although the bidders were not as numerous as usu al, yet there was a sound and healthy Competition, and the contracts hare - been taken at such a reduction in the prices as to give a saving of more than $100,000 per annum. Besides this saving in the cost of the transportation for the section, important improvements have been made ; and in Ohio considerable additional rail road service will be brought into opera tion. I Washington Union. Militia Trainings. A bill to abolish Militia Trainings passed both houses of the Pennsylvania Legislature. ' It imposes a tax of twenty-five cents upon each' indivi dual liable to militia duty, in lieu of per sonal service upon training days. The fund thus produced, after the payment of all necessary militia expenses, is to be di vided among the several volunteer corps of the Commonwealth. Daring Outrage One pari of the coun try robbing the other. The Washington City papers of the 19th instant, contain an account of one of the most extensive robberies, which has lately been published. Three white menj hired by northern abolition ists; managed to get 77 slaves on board of a sloop, at Washington City; on the night of Sunday the ISth, and sailed at 2 o'clock on Sunday inorning. The wind being fair; she made great headway. About 1 o'clock, 30 m-n of Washington went in pursuit, but did not overtake the sloop untd near the mouth of the Potomac river, where she was overhauled and conveyed back to Washing ton. The citizens were so incensed at the three tools of the abolitionists that it was found neces sary to carry them to jail in a coach. The whole posse, the negroes and three white mea were lodged in jail. . The white men confessed that they were employed by the abolitionists to take the negroes to Maine, whence they could be sent to Canada. But they refused to disclose the names of the persons under whose directions they acted, because if they did not, the abolition ists would take care of their families ! (Proba bly they will" in a horn.") . . The slaves were the house servants of many of the wealthy, and " respectable" families, and consisted of 33 men and boys 20 women andj girls, and 13 children. s On Tuesday night, (the negroes and kidnap pers having been committed to jail that day,) a crowd gathered in front of the National Era printing office, (an abolition paper) and after breaking the windows, disbursed. In the House of Representatives, Mr Giddings introduced a resolution inquiring into the right of the authorities to imprison the negroes; but it was laid upon the tible without debate. This increased the mobbish feelings at Washington. No doubt Giddings knew all about the whole plan of operations, possibly w:s the :nstigator of the outrage. The people of the District are very jealous of their rights in this matter, and it takes no great deal of imposition to rouse the mob spirit to vio lence. We have seen it rage for days and nights. The Phexomexom at Niagara. The BuftV.lo Express of the 4th says: We learn that the waters of the Niagara have return ed to their accustomed height and the Falls are doing their usual amount of busi ncss arain. Those who have been under the sheet of water on Canada side can judge something of the extent of the reces sion when they are told that the sheet was entirely suspended there, and the curtain lifted so that the rugged , pathway below was thrown bare and open to the gaze of the outer world. THE "NEW ORDER OF THINGS." The Register of Wednesday last, api pears to be greatly shocked at the fact .

This has been a tlay of unparalleled ex citement in both Houses of Congress and in the city. The people dispersed last night without assaulting the editor of the Era, or demolishing his office. They were persuaded to retire, with the promise that the nuisance should be abated to-morrow. The Committee which waited upon I)r Bai ley, the editor, received as his reply that he would not depart that he was alone and unarmed, and was in the hands of the poo pie that his press was here that he wish ed it to remain, and would not surrender it that he had no agency in, and no knowledge of the abduction of the slaves, &e. The fact was, tliat the slaveholding community here had taken no offence at the articles in the Kra, and did not wish to molest it, and they and others of the pro perty holding citizens, were looking out lor some persons more directly responsible for the late attempts to spread discontent among? the slaves. ' If any person could be caught who had tampered with the slaves, he would fare badly w ith our people. The Captain of the vessel which carried away the slaves, will be severely dealt with by law. Mr Giddings would have been roughly handled by some ot the people yesterday, when he went to the jail to sympathize with the Captain, had he not been protected by the police. As it was, he wras threatened and derided, as he well deserved to be. As soon as the House met, Mr Palfrey brought in resolutions for an Inquiry into the lawless acts of the mob the menaces thrown out against a member of the House. It brought on an outpouring of eloquent denunciation from Southern men of both parties, while on the side of the Northern there was - no reply on the merits of the question. It was contended by the former that no assault had been committed that the resolution set forth no cause for the interposition of the House that the mob were justifiable that members of the House had instigated the movements that caused the mob, and were exposed to the just Indignation of the citizens and that Mr Giddings ought to be expelled from the House for bavin", excited insurrection among the slaves. The House adjourned f in the midst of the excitement, without j acting on the 'resolution In the Senate, the debate raged for a longer time. It was brought on by Mr Hale, who gave notice of a bill to suppress riots, &c. Mr Calhoun made some indig nant remarks upon the proposition, as one to arm the robber, and aid him in his career of plunder. Mr Foote invited Mr Hale to come to his State, assuring him of eleva tion to the highest tree in the nearest forest, and offering to stand Jack Ketch. Mr Uutlermade some admirable remarks in reply to Mr Davis of Mass., who called for patience and moderation. Mr Douglass predicted that the undue notice taken of this matter by Congress would promote abolitionism. The Senate took no question, and ad journed ovrr to Monday. . It was expected that to night, the mob would prove themselves to be a mob 5 and, if eloquence could excite them, they might have been worked up to the sticking point; but it turned out as Mr Hale said, taunt ingly, you can't raise a mob here.'' The crowd assembled to-night in front of the Era office to a great number, and it was the most respectable, and most conserva tive mob ever assembled any where. It seemed to consist of police officers, the city authorities, the government clerks, memDers oi congress, reporters, and a few boys. No fun being proposed, this mob soon separated and dispersed, without even a speech. Xast night, a "Government Clerk amused them with a funnr sneech. and promised to lead them on to-nieht. iney caueu ior mm to-nignt, but he was ssmg. I hose most anxious for some fun, proceeded to his lodgings and called for him, but in vain. The fact was, that Mr H. had received an admonition that K could not make mob speeches and keep his office of fourteeu hundred a vear. NORTH CAROLINA REGIMENT. Correspondence of Raleigh' Standard.

" As you will perceive, the Regiment is again encamped at Buena Vista haying leftit in August hist, immediately after the disturbances, and having been encamp ed at more than half a dozen places since.

It may in truth be called the only means by which the Jn Irtish Government is sustained. Its eiHit hundred millions of pounds sterling retain much more loyalty among the hundreds of thousands of creditors, mostly or her own people, than the pure love of country which can be found in the Urittsli Islands But creditors are not the only government supporters.

A dispute occur red, during which Mr Gibbons called fur his pistols. Black then went out into the piazza of the building, and challenftl Gibbons to follow him.

Now, we always keep the "document" by us, and we intend to prove, -'from the record, that there is not one word of truth in the above paragraph from the Register of Saturday last. The Register says "the Whig Conven tion numbered sonic 125 Delegates, leav ing out those from Wake." Including those from Wake, the Whig Convention number only 123- Wc have made the count, and we challenge contradiction. Again. It is asserted that the -Democratic Convention numbered "about 75," leav ing out 'Wake. Leaving out Wake, the Democratice Convention contained 89 members: so the Register, missed thp . ure here, by 11. 'I he same paper says: "There were 30 Counties represented in the Whig Con vention in the Loco Foco, about 23." The truth is, there were 29 Counties repre sented in the whig and 29 iu the democratic Convention, 'i he public can judge from these facts, what reliance ought to be placed in statements of the Register. That paper talks about "leaving out" the Delegates from Wake.- Does it desire a comparison? In the Whig Convention mere were V6 delegates Irwin' Wrake, & of these, thirteen were from Raleigh includ ing the County Attorney for -Wake, the Adjutant General of the State,and eventhe the Clerk of the State Treasury, and the Cashier of the Cape Fear Bank;"and in the Democratic Convention there were 26 Delegates from Wake, and of these only six were from Raleigh. Is the Register satisfied as to this point? 7fo. Standard. The Indiana State Journal, (whig) says that a regard to whig principles now forbids the nomi-r.ation-of Taylor.
