Mt.R‘eynolds,the pioneer of Capt-.Sy‘mmes,
seems to carry conviction with- him, wherever
he goes, ofthe importance of experimenting
upon his novel theory. For sometime past
he has been lecturing upon the advantages of
an expedition ofresearch in the vicinity ofthe
region where C-apt. S. expects tofiud the en-
trance to the inner sphere. He howeveradroit
ly conceals his real object upper the more
general and popular one ofsci {fie research.
Among the patrons ofthe expedition are the
Secretaries of the Treasury and Navy, the
Postmaster General, General Macomb, many
respectable cilizens of Washington and the
‘District of Columbia, and of the Potomac
Chapter. .

The editor of the NationalG:_izette requests
the attention of his readers to the article on
Hayti, _which we publish to-day. It is from
an intelligent gentleman who has long resided
in Hayti, and possesses every means for accu-
rate infortnation. Advices by way of Balti-

two thousand square miles. When the fol met
part of this report was written, the gold had.
not been discovered in veins, but had been
found only in a horizontal deposite of gravel
and dense clay, both of peculiar characters.
and-suggesting the idea that the materials ‘of
Ihis deposite, including the metal, had previ-
ously existed in veins traversing the slate, and
had been bmtren up and scattered over the
nciglibouring regions by some great natural
catastroplic, possibly the Universal Deluge.-
The subsequent discovery oforigiual V_eIn5 Of
guartz, containing gold, and traversing the
slate, being free from these marks of attrition
and concussion which characterize the stream
gold, are bo_th circumsrances which appear-
strongly,.to favor the intimation which was be-
fore thrown out. It appears, however. that
these" auriferous veins are not confined’ to
quartz, traversing the slate, but they occur,
likewise in veins of iron ore ; as Mr. Rothe
foutid to be thegcase on Long Creek, in Meek-
leriburg, where slate is no longer the predom-
inant rock of the cotmtry. The occurretice
ofgold in a vein ofiron ore, is a circumstance
which is novel and unexpected, and a pecul-
iarity which has not been observed in aiiy oth-
er part of the formation. The discovery of a
very rich v_ein'in‘quartz,ar'uong the slate rocks
-at Baring:-.‘r’s mine, in Montgomery, is'gen-
erally known. From this place, we learn the
metal occurs in several distinct situations,being
partly in veins of quartz, partly in fine sand,

between t_iwr_i layers of slate, and partly in the .

dense blue-"mud which accompaniesit at most
of the other mines. It also appears; that
gold, amounting to»not_less th‘anV$l0,000‘ was
obt":t‘iired' I‘ro“m t'tie':ibove”r’Ii‘entior'i“éd great vein"
alone.

The occurrence ofigold in its original veins
so near the surface of the earth, is regard ed
as a most auspicious circumstance, affording
the greatestencouragement t omake extensive
cxcavations,witli a capital proportioned to the
magnitude ofthe enterprize.

‘Near Randolph Cour} House, the stream
Gold has recently been found in the same
gravelly deposite as that of Caliarrus ;_ and the

Constitution of Poi-tugal.——Tlie govern-
ment of Portugal, which has been hitherto an
absolute monarchy, has recently experienced
a fundamental change. By an arrival at this
port from Lisbon, the editors ofthe Dai. Adv.
have received a copy ofthe constitution which
Don Pedro, Emperor of Brazil, lately confer-
red upon that kingdom. In this instrument,
Don Pedro declares that the kingdom ofPor-
rugal, including the colonies in Asia 8:. Africa,

vernment is mcnarcliial, hereditary and rep-
resentative, and that the dynasty of the house
of Braganza shall continue in the person of
the Princess Mar'iaDe Gloria, after his own
abdication. The legislative power is vested
in the Cortes,under the sanction ofthe king.
The Cortes consists of the Chamber ofPeers.
nominated by the king and deputies elective.
The‘ king nominates the peers. The deputies
are elected by electors chosen by the mass of
citizens in parochial meetings. The Cortes

have the power ofchoosing a Regent, making, 

laws, fixing the expenditure, &.c. The depgg,
ties must originate iiiipost and recruiting bills,
but other laws may be proposed by eitlidr
chamber: The king has the power of pics;
roguing the Cortes and convnkitig another
chamber, nominating or dismissing ministers
ofstate. &r.c. He names bishops. and most
civil and political ofiicers; commanders by

land and sea, ambassadors, agents, &*.c.makes

treaties, declares war and peace, 8I.c. The

'udicial power is vested in judges atid juries.

‘The judges are independent, for although the

king is authorised to suspend a judge in certain

cases, he can do it only on complainnt pre-

ferred through the proper channel. ,

The Catholic religion is declared to be the
religion ofthe state, but private worship is
allowed to those of other creeds.—.N'. Y. Obs.

A letter from Panama, ofJuly 10th, says,
“" We have here the Mexican Legation to the
grand American Assembly, Messrs. Michele-
na andDotninguez, with their Secretary, Mr.
Guerra, on the arrival of whom it was agreed
tipon to instal the said assembly on the 15th
ofthe present riiontli. We believe that this
ektraordinary occurrence will call the atten-
tion cf Europe, and occasion some variation
in the ‘political machinations, which some
Cabinets have entertained with respect to the
Colombian w_orld"’

We understand letters have been rec’d from
Litna, which announce that President Bom-
van has entered into a marriage covenant

-:with Miss HART, of Saybrcok, Connecticut,
sister of the lady of Com. Hull, of the frigate

We mention that it is expected President

yer will resign on account of the difiiculties

at‘ among the Haytiens. The British
5-? nsul General could efi'ect nothing,and
“ " id would soon return home. The

Messrs. Eckford,Swil'i, Rathboue,and Ver-
uiilyea have resigned their ofrice as‘ Directors
of the Morris Canal and Banking Company,
and the books oftheConipany are in tliehands
of a committee from whom a report of the
state of affairs is expected. A cloud it seems
rests upon the company, which its friends
think‘ will be removed, and all fears of loss
dissipated.

The N. Haven Herald mentions that among
the gentlemen who have lately been indicted
by the Grand Jury of New York on account
of their fraiidtilent speculations, are several
who were deeplv interested in the Mechanics’
Bank and F'ai'mingttiii Canal; btit they had
some time since relinquished their interest in
the concern and these institutions- are now in
good hands, and on the full tide of success.

The steam boat Babcock, built at Newport,

her performance was witnessed‘-by numerous

to be satisfied of ll1t’..pl'aCllCal)llll)’ and useful-
ness ofthe invention. On her return she
made the trip to New Lotidon at the I rate of

The benefits of Sabbath School instruction

engage in the work with that zeal which the
importance of the object demands.

The success which has attended the cause
of Sabbaili School instruction in this place
the present season, demands our liveliest grat-
itude and our warmest expressions of thanks
to that Being who gives us all our blessings.
It also affords the most ample encouragement
for ._tho continuance of‘ those exertions which
have hitherto been approved by the smiles of
Heaven. The perfect harmony with -which
all otir measures have been conducted and the
readiness which has been generally shown by
all classes of christians to favor the interests
of the school, deserve particular iiottce. The
necessity of some bottd of union among those
who were engaged in this work and of some
regular system of exertions was early sugges-
tcd and met with the cordial approbation of
all. These sentiments led to the formation
ofa Sabbath School Society which now con-
sists of about forty tneiiibers, and which has
been received and acknowledged by the Con-
necticut Sunday School Union as one of its
auxiliaries- _We regard this as a very impor-
tant circumstance, and one which will give
stability and system to our exertions for years
to come.

The School now consists of 100 Scholars,
who are taught by 13 Teachers. The recita-

The Springs-.—The Saratoga Sentinel of
Tuesday, states, that the arrivals during the
-previous few days, had been very numerous.—

visited the springs during the season. The
present number at the several hotels is about
1000. The Sentinel gives an idea of the
amount of travelling to and from Saraloga
Spa, by stating that on Thursday morning
there "were 32 post coaches and hacks standing
before the doors of the principal hotels, nearly
all of which had arrived the evening previous,
and all departed that morning. ‘

arrived, and bathed the wodlid wi'h olive oil,
