The last time heard from, he was mining on Steamboat Bar, North Fork of North Yuba river. He { f . during the whole . the exuction of navigation and port du-, . ties--that is to say. for those of light-. \ hoase. anchorage. and of leading and junloadiug cargo, established in the law of L1th of April, 1849, and in my royal} decree of the 16th December last—the . vessels of all nations who may concede a! llike benefit in their respective territories to the vessels of the Spanish ma-. he . . possibly whose own feelings urge him rine. Art. 2. The government will give account of this decree to the Cortes. cession of decrees that have astonished the world in the columns of the Moniteur, each of which isa separate coup d'etat. it may be said with literal truth that no man can say what an hour will bring forth, and what was inconceivable vesterday, is 2 matter of history to-day. Who can speculate on the actions of 1 . man whose advisers, whose position, and on continually to outstrip expectation ? Given at the Palnee (in Madrid) on the 3d January, 1852. It is signed by . the royal hand. JUAN BRAVO MURILLO, Minister of Finance. The U. S. troops on board the steamer . Falcon conducted with great turbulence . during the stay of the Falcon at Kings. ton. At about mid-day they got into a. dispute with some idle characters, who! infest the town, and many a broken! head did each party receive in the me. lee: but nothing serious occurred. The men preambulated the streets day. and having ta-! kena large quantiiy of drink. commit. ted some very serious assaults, using . knives and swords very freely. so much . so that the police had to use their arms in putting down the disturbance, and . took in custody such of those who had . . 25 L-deasks port wine; 50 kogs Malaga wine;. been instrumental in bringing it about. . The five hundred men who have volunteered their services for California are principally Irishmen, and some of them, from their appearance, are not the best . of characters, but of whom it may be said, that they had left their country . for their country’s good. The Cage was! filled by these disreputable characters . up to alate hour in the evening. . The Small Pox was raging with grent ; virulence in several parts of the Island. The Cholera has abated. The most terrible accident which has yet occurred upon the Erie Railroad,befel the train coming to New York on Tuesday morning, Feb. 17. When the engine, with a baggage-car and four passenger-cars attached, had come to a. sharp curve in the road, about two miles . west of Equinunk, the last passenger. train was thrown down a precipice thir-! ty feet high into the Deleware River.— . . . , There is now ample evidence that the French autecrat will hesitate at nothing that may appear necessary to se. {eure his position. or to push it to its com. pletest development; and notoriously a successful blow on this country has for jsixty years been the last card in the hands of French ambition. Our fleets are overy where except where they ure . wanted. They are avenging every man’s quarrel at the cost possibly of our own. The muster roll of our army is prodigious, but as far as these shores or these are concerned, it exists chiefly on paper. With a month’s law we might perhaps do wonders, but without a day's law it is not certain that we ean do any thing. Half a century since, we lived for three years in almost daily dread of an invasion: but we possessed two securities first. i. state of open war: second. the discretion of our wntagonist. We knew that if he had made enormens preparation, he had also counted the cost. We have none of these securities now. Our danger consists ina peace which may be hollow. and in the very rashness and ignorance of those who posseas the power, and possess the will. to annoy us. Scas Woe take the following extracts from the letters of Mrs. Bennett, who was in Paris, at last dates, giving her notion of French affairs :—Asto politics, all is outwardly tranquil here; the French appenr delighted with the state of things and with their new constitution; they call Louis Naem “the Saviour of France.” More, 1owever, is known of what is going on in secret here,in England than in France, as the prees throughout the country is merely an echo of the mind of the government. A great fete is in preparation, to be given by the government in honor of the new constitution; it is intended “Always—secure them if will do it.” “Well, sir, Lhave just returne .
