These demands all arise from liabilities for the Raleigh and Gaston Kail Road Company, and may be stated as follows : The State endorsed for the Company at one time, Bonds to the amount of S500.000, and at another 300,000 more. Of the last issue 513,000 were not used, and therefore that sum is to be substracted from tha State's liabilities. Two instalments of $30,000 each have been also paid heretofore oil the latter class of Boads, so as to reduce the amount due on them to $227,000 and therefore-he total vatao to $727,000. As it is yet uncertain wbM disposition the Legislature will make of the Rail Koad, or what recoveries Will be obtained from Stockholders and Subscribaaavon their individual obligations, and at wnat time any aid to the 1 rensury may be expected from tnese sources, it is important to ascertain toe liabilities to be met before the next session of the Legislature and tha resources at our command for that purpose.

Wt have been furnished by an officer of the Navy, who arrived here this morning in the schooner Por tia, Capt. Powera, six days from Point Lizardo, who was engaged in the affair of Tabasco, with the an nexed summary and sketch of the proceedings of Com. Perry, wilh the detachment of vessels sent un der him against Tabasco. The enterprise was alto gether successful. The object of the expedition was to cut out certain prizes anchored in the river. These were all taken. When the City was sum moned to surrender, the people were all in favor of yielding at ouce. The Governor ami soldiery opposed it. Time was given for all peaceable persons, wo men and children, to get out of harm' way ; but the Governor would not allow an- one to leave, so that it is feared most of those killed during the bombard ment were not soldiers. Some of the regulars were killed. Had it not been that the execution was Drincinallv done upon inoffensive persons, the. City would h ive been demolished, with the exception of the residences of the Foreign' Consuls and the Hos pitals. Squadron consisting of the Mississippi, Com. Per ry; Vixen, Com'r.

Cap tured steamers Petrita and Tabasqucua, and several small vessels. 24th and 2,th ascended the river 72 miles to Tabasco: the current very rapid towed by the Petrita and. Vixen, passed Devil's Turn at 2, P. M., landed and spiked four 24 pounders. Ar rived off Tabasco at 4 P. M., and anchored in line a hend ilistant 150 yards of the shore. Summoned the City to surrender. Governor refused. Fired three shots from the' Vixen one cut the flag-stnff of the fort, and as tho color fell we thought that they had surrendered.' Au officer came off with a request that wo would spare their hospitals, which was gran ted. At 5 o'clock, landed 200 seamen and marines, but as it .'was too late to attack the fort, they were ordered on board. Some skirmishing ensued, but none of us were hurt. This was Sunday, and the Commodore was somewhat reluctant to com mence the attack on that day. Captured one brig, three schooners, aud one large sloop ; also captured one schooner before 'we arrived at Frontera, and an other on our passage up the river making in nil, one brig, five schooners, two steamers, and one sloop, and many small craft and lighters. Monday, 20th, at day light, a sharp fire of musketry from shore, which waa returned by our great guns whenever we heard a report. Firing continued for sopie time at intervals. When a white Flag was shown by the ci vilians on shore, no doubt with the consent of the Governor. Sent off a petition to the Commodore to spare the town, which he granted, nddirlg that hcen ly desired to fight tha soldiery. Got the priies un der weigh and made every preparation for return- ine ; white Hag Hying all the wmic. iieut. w, a. Parker got on shore with his prize vessel, near tho City, and waa attacked by abiut eighty aoimers, we beat off with eighteen men, losing only one and having but two wounded. This affair lasted thirty minutes. Lieut C. W. Morris wot despatched to him with orders, and passing the heavy fire of the enemt, was wounded in the neck by a musket ball. Lieut. Morris stood up in his boat and cheered the men most gallantly nntU he fell into the arms of Midshipman Uhceter; , who was witn mm. mc Commodore then commenced canonading in earnest from the Vixen, Bonita, Nonita and -forward, and n the space of halt or tureo fourths or an hour, al most demolished the City. : j At about midday the fleet left I abasco, and, as it pasi)d the different streets at 'ljight, angles with the water, tired musketry and great guna, and swept tnem completely of every living things All the prizes were savea vrua me excepiion 01 one, wnicn was burnt by the Commodore's order, it having been found impossible to get her clear of the '-Devil's Turn," a rapid: pass in the river. -Arrived at t rontera on auniinv at midnight in habitants all peaceful having been kept in awe du ring our absence by Lieut. Walsh and his oomraand. It will be seen by reading this cursory report that the" Commodore spared the City out of feelings of humanity. The k'- Mtaats could not leave, as the Governor would nolttnit them ; hence they sought refuge in cellars during the cannonading, aud thus escaped destruction. , Had it not been that we were necessarily obliged to kill many innocent persons before taking tho city.Tabasco at this moment wouia have been ours.
