From Vera Cruz.—By the fastsailirig schr.
.Shamrock_..Capt. John Alexander, arr. last
evening from Vera Cruz. we received our
regular files ofpapers to the 9th ofJuly. Bu—_
siness of all kinds was extremely dull, to
which the absence of many of the citizens of
Vera Cruz contributed. El Astro of Vera
Cruz makes mention of some disturbances
which had taken placevin the city of Merida,
province of Champecho, upon the parochial
elections, but they were not of suflicient im-
portance to apprehend any serious result.

The Americans at Vera Cruz, ‘celebrated

The line ofbattle ship Congreso, formerly
the Asia, had sailed for Valparaiso, 8:. would
double Cape Horn, with all possible dispatch,
and proceed to her place of destination, Vera
Cruz, immediately. She now mounts .72
guns,is in complete order, having every thing
hecessary for offensive or defensive operations
and a crew of six hundred men, under, com-
mand ofCaptain C. Jose Maria Tosta. TVe
hope she may arrive in safety, and this acces-
siorrofstrength to the" Mexican Navy, will
enable it to undertake more important mat-

ters than that of merely protecting thesea
board.

A duel was fought at Cartliagena about the
middle ofJune, between midshipmen Vaughn
ofPhiladelphia, and Skelding, of New Yor-':.,
both attached to the frigate La Plata, in the.
Colombian service. Midshipman Skelding
received a hall in his right breast, and both
principal and seconds had been arrested and
imprisoned. . .

From Colombia.-—-We have conversed with
'Mr'. Jefferson B. Nones, passenger in the
schr Ceres, from Maracaibo, whicli place he
left on the 4th ofJuly., The government of
Maracaiby was strongly opposed to the move-
ment ofGen. Paez, and had declared in fa-
vor of the government and constitution, in
which sentiments Admiral Padilla had con-
curred. Col,.Avadonio, (displaced from the
command of Laguira by Generals Paez and
Escalon,) had arrived at Maracaibo from Ven-
ezuela, on express to Bogota. The govern-
ments to the leeward of Maracaibo have also
declared for Bolivar. The general opinion
was, that Paezwould be punished and -tran-
quility be restored on the return of Bolivar.

By a gentleman from Texas, whose‘ infor-
mation may be relied on, we learn"_.that a par-
ty of about 200 North Americans from Aus-
tin’s settlement, had set out on an expedition
against the Waco Indians. This expedition
is carried on against the consent of the Go-
vernment oflltlexico. VVe further understand
that Col. Austin had received orders not to
set on foot the expedition before the next fall,
when ofiicers would be sent from Mexico to
lead them. The settlers not relishing this
proposition, volunteered and set out against
the instructions of Col. Austin.

_,Our informant further states that the set-
tlers on the Colorado were fortifying, 5:. were
considered by the Indians the hostile party,
may having killed the Indians of which we
were infortned some weeks ago.

We are happy to learn that the prospect of
crops are exccllei=rt,and Government very to-
lerant.

What would be the result ofthe expedition
againstthe Indians, our informant could form
no opinion, nor could he tell ‘how the conduct
of the settlers would be received by the Mex-
ican Government.

The Waco and Patvee Indians, and the
people of Mexico are at war, and it was geri-
erally believed in Texas, that th__e reason the
goyernment forbid the expedition against the
Indiana until fall, was an apprehension that

ince would be inadequate to chastise the ene-
.tny.—L_ouist'ana fldv. ’

TUESDAY. AUGUST is, 1826.

Among the benevolent enterprizes which
distinguish the present day we know of none
which more deserves the good will-"cf the com-
munity than one recently formedin N. Jersey
for the education ofintelligentfree, coloured
youth in the United States. The first idea
of this irrterestingproject is attributed’ to the
brave Kosciusko, who, on hislast visitlto the
United States, left in the hands of Mr. Jeffer-
son a fund, amounting, at this time, to about
$13,000, to be employed? in liberating enslav-
ed Africans,-and bestowing upon them such
an education, as (to use his own words)
“ would make them betterfathers, better ino-
thers, better sons, and better daughters.” At
a meeting lately held at Newark to take this
subject into consideration it was resolved that
exertions be made {,0 Raise‘ lqn llldditional sum
of $13,000, with w ic asc oo shouldbe es-
tablished in the vicinity of Newark for the
purposes named, to he called the “ Kosciusko
School.” The effectofsuch an Institution, if

irrrportaiice to this long neglected, and degra-
ded class of our fellow beings. This, we be-
lieve, is the first time, any thing like an efii-
cientattempt has been made in this country,
to raise the minds of this unfortunate race
above the level of the brute creation, and put
them itito a situation to render themselves’
useful to their countrymen, and respected by
the world.

For this Christians and philanthropists
ought to blush ; for why,we would ask, should
they have been forgotten amidst the number-
less other objects which have’ ‘called forth the
exertions ofthe benevolent ofthe present age ?
Were their claims less strong? their wants
less pressing? or was it because there were
none to tell of their sorrows, or recount their
wrongs ? But we trust the time is now come
when their cause is to be considered the cause
ofhutnanity, and when the tale of their suf-
ferings shall at least be listened to with as
rriuctr feeling as that of the Islander 01 the
South Sea, or the Indian of the Frozen
Ocean,or the native ofsotne other distant and
almost unknown regions. Is_it not afault that
our counttyrnen do, and care, so little for
those who are nearer home,and_to whom they
owe pectiliar obligations, while they are so
ready to make sacrifices for distant objects of
benevolence? ‘

On Saturday last, the grand jury of New

Goad Reply to a Duelist.——-The Emperor
Augustus gave an admirable example how a

“Tell Mark Antony, if he be weary of life,
there are other ways to despatch it; I shall
therefore not take the trouble to be his exe-
