Thers was a Meret despatch arrived here laat week bn H II S. H., wherenpon twenty of the Onset horses to be feund were preened into service, a company of twenty men was formed, with Col. Benches at their head, and despatched the seme evening towards the Merth. The ''Know .-'omethlngs" suppose they have gees to Janes or wherever the Boundary Commissioners may he, to arrest SeDor B&lizar, of the Mexican Bounda ry uemmiasion. The reasons given here are, that Santa Anna, growing impatient of the slow progress of the wrrk, wrote to Srnor Sallxar to push It with more ener gy and speed, to which Sennr Balizar replied that tan ning the line without money, men or lustrum-nts. was net quite as easy as sitting in Meitco making bad laws, and spending government money. At this H. It. S. H. toak umbrage, and ordered his arrest rfelizar is said to he the meet competent man in the republic for that werh. Santa Anna, in his policy towards this State, appears to aim at expressing the people so much that th>-y would not complain if they were sold to the United States, er were anything else to ociur to them,so it wtre a ehangs. Heretofore the merchants ocuid take money cut ef the State free ef duty to Guadaljara or Mexico, er sny other pert of the republic. Last week a law arrived from Mexico forcing a duty of 4 per eent. mm ail moneys taken out of the Stste, even though it he for the purchase of goods to return to where the money is taken from. They collect ten psr eent on alt money taken from this State to ge out of the country. The duties on the frnitler er thiiTatite are so high that goods cannot be introduced; benW ail intro dusbeai are prohibited. It is the greatest in justice that ever was perpetrated on any people, and none but M*xl cans would stand ft. That law oould have been equalled only by the one that followed. The people of this State were reduced to extreme poverty by the Iadians taking all their eattle off. Not being aole to raise stock any leager, they turn thsir attention to agriculture growing earn, wheat Ac., wtaieb they found sale for at tbeir own doers, to speculators who fomcd a ready martet for the ram at oar frontier posts of Kl Paso, L'tnpia and others. law haa been passed prohibiting the free passage of any eon ont of this oountry into the United State# either at the Limpia or ?1 Paso. Thus are thrown idle the greater yart of the moot industrious portion of the in The Mate is deprived of a revenue and the farmers of the means ef subsisting, inasmuch as they eoald not had market here for one half of the produce raised. The Indiana eee't a Wow them to raise t'oek, nor the govern mmX !? thV w,u to steal or starve. This in fn th* '"Pwblie, and if It belonged to the United States, would be the garden. The people are al anxious for a change of rulers, but have not the oou rage to proclaim. Some are desiftius of joining the Uni ted States, etbereare la favor of the Republic ef the SMrtaMadre.

The appearance of the insolvents near the city of Mexico, the battle of Tieavuca, the journey of H. S.

The ratnir that he had retreated upon Guanajuato was without foandatkm. It was the insurgents who, with great sa gadty, had quitted 7. amor a before the arrival of the government troops. Puehllta alone remained with his sectlan, waiting the sight of the eoemy before he Wft Santa Anna, therefora, reached Zamnra without striking a blow?an easy victory, but yet the most substantial he is likely to achieve. The storiee published in the papers of the defeat of Pneblita are utterly false Santa Anna did send a party in pursuit of him, bat these chiv alrous soldiers returned, after an abeeooe of a few hours swearing they were unable to discover a single traie of the daring rebel; whereupon Santa Anna lavished a pin them some of those choice epithets of reproach with which the Spanish vocabulary abounds. After the capture of Zamora, the insurgents took dif ferent ronton; and wbnt is almost Incredible, whilst Santa Anna waa on his way to the tha Interior to sxter minata them, a considerable division of the rebels, un der the command of Degollado, wore marching almost to the very walls of the capital Dogollado, with 1,500 horse, arrived within four leagues of this city.

The government claim a signal victory, and have orders* cannon ts be flred in honor of their triumph. Rut It la certain that Tarera'S troops suffered severely. The day after the battle, M ambulances were sent to hoar off the wound ed, while Degollado seemed so little apprehensive of par smt that he pass ad the night three quarters ef a league from the plane of battle.

It is reported to day, though I do not youcta for its truth, that Santa Anna was twice attacked on hie jour ney from Morvlla and lost a large number of baggage mules. It la likewise rumored that the environs of Cor dova and Perote have pronounced, with a view of cut ting off Santa Anna's retreat In cats he endeavors to reach Vera Cruz and quit tbs country. It is said, too. that in the State of Zncatecas, eitner at TruxiHo or at Sombrero, there is another pronunciamento, and that Sierra Gorda is on the point or revolting.. I cannot say bow mncb truth there is in these stories. Another ru mor is that the Ministers BoniUa and Lares will resign upon the return of Santa Anna, but this I positively do not believe. A more certain piece of intelligence, and one infinitely graver than any yet mentioned, is the capture of Moa terey by a few hundred insurgents, who crossed the Kie Grende at Lampagos. This event Is officially acknow ledged, but tbe brers endeavors to put it to the account of bandits and tmngglars.

Cuba md the United States?.%. Spnnteh Ame rican Crusade. [Translated for the New York Herd] The Universal of Mexioo discusses in a series of arti elei the question of Cuba, vis a vis of the United States. In these it labors to shew the analogy between this ques tion and the Eastern question, and to prove that the Spanish American people are equally interested in re pelling the advance of the United States in that direc tion, aa the Western Powers are in protecting Turkey from the Cbar. The only difference between the two is. says the Universal, that Ruesia aspires to dominate in Europe in the name of despotism, and the United States aspires to dominate In America in the name of liberty. There it is monarchical tyranny which is scnght to be imposed; here it is popular tyranny. Repugnant as both ere, the last is most unsupportable, because it is hypo critical, and is exercised in the largest extension. It is hypocritical, because it is covered with the .mask of liberty; snd it is exercised in a wider space, because the people are everywhere. When a monarch is a tyrant he can be fled from; how can one escape from tyranny when the tyrant is the people fees For thow who have followed the march of events for two years past, the sympathies existing between the United .States and Russia are not a mystery the latter exercise in America the same role as th > former does in Europe, and it is natural that they give each other the hsnd. The United States know that if the AI lies triumph in the contest, they will oarry every where their victorious flag, to cover with it the territo ries thre&'ened by unmeasured ambition. England and f ranee will tben come to America to tell the republic of Washington what is the will of the nations with respect to the security and independence of each, and tbe so loes us will have to halt in its career, and to adjust its tuture pol'cy to the code of justice and of morality adopted by human societies. Therefore, we, although there were no other reason, would be, in tbe question of tbe Fast, on the side of the Allied Power* through reason of convenience. It suits us that Spain do not lose the Island of Cuba, for this motive, among others: that if she lose It, It has to fall Into the hands of the United States: and trom the moment that the United States get Cuba, tbe independence of Spanish America may be re garded as concluded. The triumph of the Allies m Eu reps would ward off tbat evil. Therefore, we eay that tbe question of Cuba has not only an analogy with the question of tbe East, bat depends upon it. * * Spanish America, In the question of Cuba, is called npon to defend the same principles of morality, of jus tice. and of international law, as Europe is in the East ern war. It is true that each of these countries, taking part in that immense crusade, will defend its security and its independence; but in this there is ne egotism of any kind, but a noble and legitimate sentiment of conservatism And therefore the mission of these peo ple cannot b? more glorious, when it is cuasidesed that the government defends, with their independence and the r oat'onaltty. a religion which has otvifized these re gions? a history illustrated by so many great events ? an entire continent impressed with tbe flnest oonquas's of th* Catholic civilization?a race, in fine, which has for three otnturiea executed the mission of diai.lpating tne darkness of barbarity, and has gathered under its banner* the soldier or the cross and the Catholic missionary. * * The first consequence of thsen rights and duties Is, that the Spanish Ametioan countries onght to aak tbe United States, every time that they take a step towards the equator, the reason of their conduct; that they ought to intervene In every way in the negotiations which may be established on the future destiny of Cub'; that tbey ought to bavo cognizance of every measu,? tbat la adopted to ebange the present ronMttons of tho island, not only In reference to a tran-lation *f do minion to another Power, but also having for obieet an emancipation, which is impossible, and which would i?e the germ of like dangers fur us. And after all this, when ambition reaches the point of employing force and violence to attain its ends, the r.ght and the duty of Spanish America la to rush to the Hats with armed hand to defend their Independence and their liberty. ? ? * Though there are not here, as la Europe, two neat Powers to rush to the froit of a ooa lit'on, to fight th* common snemy, we may safely say tbat it is Mexico wbvse duty It is to unfurl, before any o-her country of the New World, the banner under wh'ch our nationalities and our race have to be deieaded. She must stand in the van, because she is the first nation with which the colossus has te come in conflict in its advance towards tbe equator, and because we may say, withont vanity, that she is first In point of extent in the number of hor inhabitants, and in tbe condition of civilisation and cul ture to which she has arrived Our country will o? the right and fulfil the dnty which these circumstance* concede to and Impose upon it, and will do aD (hat be longs to a people where Is still preserved the spirit of coble pride and of Independence inherited from the two hemic races from which It sprung; it will do so with th* rnerpy and Ih* abnegation of those who defend, at every ha/H'd, a history and traditions which form its pride, and a religion with wbleh are bound up all Its record* of giory and whioh is the foundation of its finest hop*.

A Catholic Priest Claiming His Wife. CUfclOUH OB APT n IN MABBTBD LIPS. [From the Chicago rriaune, Jane 13.] The caw of the people ex relatione Nicholasdtamber vs. Anthony Schnie^er, which came before the court of Com noa Ple?a of Ceok county, Hen. John U. Wilson, pre tid ing, on Saturday, presents a consul picture of married lire, and revea's tome strange practise* on the part of the Catholic clergy, and acme equally strange matters ef faith on the part of the more ignorant portion of their flock a. It appears that, aheut a year ago, Nicholas Stamher. then a priest of the Catholic church, was united in mar riage with hnna Maria "chniecer, a German girl, the daughter of tho defendant, and a good Cacholio. The marriage ceremony was performed by Father Peter Kramer, in a pi irate room, without the use of the wed ding ring, and without witnesses. In all otber respects the marriage ceremony was performed according to the rite* of the Catholic church, tho parties agreeing and consenting thereto, promising to be man and wife to each other, and the priest giving them the nuptial benediction and pronouncing them man and wife. after the ceremony, Father Nicholas look ths girl home and kept her as sn upper servant or housekeeper, treat ing her kindly and paying her wages regularly The girl says herself that, although he always spoke of her as his wife, they occupied separate apartments. Home three month* since she left his house, and went to NiVh, Michigan, where abe entered a family in the capacity of a servant. Her own account is, that both her marriage to and desertion from, her hushed were in accordance with the advice of hsr oarents and friends. To nse her own language, ?* she was talked into it " Up to the time of his wife's leaving him. Father Ni cholas bad continued bis pnhllc minustrailoa in tho church, bat since then we understand he has been de posed from Mis priesthood, as has also Father Peter Kramer. This suit was brought in tho ehanoery side of tho Court of Common Pleas, hy the husband, to recover pos session of his wife, whom be alleged was illegally de tamed from him by Anthony Mchneider The writ Issneu commending Schneider to produce the body of Anna Mary before the court. It was served on Schneider on the Oth of June, hy T. 8. Buckley, deputy aheriff. On going into the conntiy to serve the writ, he found Anna Mary at the bouse of one Jndson, about four miles from hsr father's residence, end took her with him. On Saturday, the defendant appeared before the Hon. John M. Wilson, in the Court of Common Pleas, and, in obedience to tho writ, produced the body of his dsngh ter. The husband was also present. For the purpose ef ascertaining the true state of the case, and ef Hading out what her wishes were In regard to living with her husband, the Court ordered the room to be cleared of all persons except the officers of ths court? an interpreter, and reporters for the press, and proceeded to question the girl. We are not. of course, at liberty to disclose all that van then elicited - but it appeared in addition to the above facta that she did not consider the marriage legal or binding, because her husband was a priest; that she left her husband of her own accord; and that eh* wished now to go with her parents and stay with them, and not to go wltb her husband; that the reason that she wished to leave her husband was that she had been educated in the belief that she could never go to heaven If she lived in marriage with a priest; but that no threats whatever had been made t* her by her parents, by ths priests, oe by the bisbop. She gave her name as Anna Mary Sahaie der, and not a* Anna Mary Stamber Judge Wilson informed the young lady that the mar riage was a perfectly valid and legal one by the laws of this State, although it might be a matter of discipline in their own chnrcn; that she could not marry any other man while her husband was living, bnt that she was not compelled to live with him, and asked whom she would go with?her husband or hsr father? She answered promptly, with her father. The doors were then reopened, and her husband and parents, the attorneys on both sides, and the other members, of the bar re entered. The hnsbaad was in formed that the body of his wife had been prodnced, *sd that eh* ws? here in court: thet the marriage, by the laws of Illinois, was perfectly legal and valid, but that he was not to use any force in compelling her to go with him The husband now walked acrosi the room to where the lady stood aod Intimated to her his desire that she should go horns with him Bnt She resolutely refused, nor could all bis persuasion* induce har to waver In her de termination. She left the court with her parents, and the last w* aaw of tho disconsolate spouse he was follow ing in tho waAe ef his wife, pouring forth his en treaties. to which she turned a deaf ear.

I allude at this time to tho affair* of tho schooner Bay City, destined for the river Sacramento, them to bo made into a rtearner, which arrived at thia port on tho lat of September last, consigned to one of tho hast com mercial houses in this city. Boon after her arrival, a report was in circulation that m English srulaer off the coast had fired into bar while our flag was flying, and that our acting eonaul, Mr. Scott, tha son of Mr. Pcott, our consul, who was on a visit to the States, wTth the captain of said schooner, were entering a protest and a demand for satisfaction of John Bull But tho mate refused to sign tho protest, and statal that the American flag was not flying, and that the captain would not show bis oolora until the balls began to fly. This mate (Mr. McCUin) was charged with insolence and in subordination, and thrust?by order of our acting eon aul?into prison, where ho lay for days, and from which ho was removed to the hospital by the interference oi the Chief of Police. After this MeClnin Insisted that the Consul bad no right to discharge him. and h* In sisted on his right to tab* charge of vho schooner, and went.on hoard and took charge?aa the captain bad gene to tha Statea Several attempts were made by Mr. Con sol Heott to eject MoClain, through the police, who wont on board armed, and drew a pistol on the mate and told him ho was a prisoner, at which McCUin drew a revolver and assured the police (some eight in number) that ho could moot them in that line, and tho police returned to tho shore without tho prisoner, or blood being drawn an either side. But on the 20th twenty odd police paosod my door with loaded muabots towards the wharf, with determined vengeance depicted en their counte nances, indicating that MoClain must ba taken, dead or alive, and warn joined by the cap tain of tho port and some thirty mom, who boarded the steamer,and MoClain delivered himself up, and now ie in prison sgala, whether for resisting tho po lice power or ineistisg on his right I do not know. I do not protend to say which ia right, but it looks quite ar bitrary on tno part of our consul. On this unfortunate Bay City there is a fine appearing young man. named Charles, who shipped on that vooaal with the intention of reaching QnllfornU and paying bia way by work, who has by tb* mtofortuae of the ves sel been over eighteen months on bia trip, and is vory desirous to gat to Oeliferaie, the place where ha can do something, and give vent to his exertions and iaduetrr. He had a tine opportunity to con tin as Qia trip* ftwdayi since on the United btatei surveying schooner Humteldt, but was refuFad a discharge from the Bay City, aad our consul told him to sit down and make up his mind if he would remain. After a time bad expired his answer was that be would go. The consul then ordered him to priaoa, where he wsa confined until the Humboldt had sailed. Tha only crime against him is that the consul wishes him to remain to have hi* testimony, he. Why ooutd not hie testimony be taken ana sealed, and b* be permitted to proceed on hi* trip I, as m American ciV.ree, regret to see such arbitrary power from our government agents. Aa to the right of our consul to stop this young men, I do not know: but when tha police am encouraged, and so often celled into requisition by our consul, on such petty occasions, every foreign resident will sooner or later feel it. I have not forgotten the days of Henry A. Wise, who even got Into difficulty with Mils government, and requested te ba ?ailed home, all of which was caused by his protesting against arbitrary polios acts on our ettlsena la this an. ptf*. Or thass affaire thorn am many reports but tho above, ?? uear aa 1 cm learn, are the impartial facta.
