But let us return from this digression. On leaving the mouth of the Mississippi we elood to the west till we came opposite Barataria, where we were becalmed. The shores of thi? region renowned in the annals of Piracy, are low and seen at a distance, appear to be an almost barren sand be.-:ch, with a few cjumps of trees scattered here and there at distant in tervals.

" In the State of Maine there are two townships al most wholly inhabited by coloreJ people. They have netween five and six hundred voters. At the State Contentions, hr-t year, which nominated Suie Otlieers and Electoral Tickets, both the Whig and !'; liurcn parlies received, but treated as delegates m all ie.-pects, and sat with the whites in the Convention, fins was then all riht. There were no newspapers that abused tho convention tor doing so, because Uiere were a Jew toUs ut stake I Rut how things have changed tmce i How the rcnncnient and good breeding of certain edi tors have been shocked by a similar occurrence of late. At the recent Aati-biavcry Convention field, there were two black men sent as delegates by the colored population of Philadelphia. They were said to be in telligent and well behaved, and to have addressed the Convention very sensiuiy. There are now no votes at stake, and si.ne Whig end an .Daren canors noiu 11 ui to the world, as an evidence of the amalgamation port;nce. YestcrJay we hoisted nnchor from Galveston harbor and sailed up the Riy to Red I Wo Ear a distance of lo or 2i) miles. We formed a pretty little fleet, their teiug three other schooners in company with us, . We met several sail bouts in one of which was the Secre tary of the Navy, Judge Fisher, on a v isit to the Fleet in tho Harbor. The Ray is a beautiful expanse of wa ter several miles broad, oluddcd with blots and sand Van ks, and intercepted by sand bars which impede its navigation. Vessels drawing 8 or 10 feet of water come up to this bar, viz: Red Fish Ear, whence the merchandize is lightered up to Harrisburg and Houston, the new seat ot Government.
