i Launch of the New Stammer Alount Vernon.
1 The Mount Vernon Is the first of a hew line of steamers
Q started by H. B Cromwell & Co., to run between Now
y York and Washington City. She was launched yosterday
't at 11 A. M., before quite a crowd or spectators, ia S Soe
don's yard, at Greenpoint.
e Tbe launch was affected very successfully; the vessel
r? eltd from the blocks very smoothly, In fact, before the
Dulidcrs anticipated?displacing some of them before they
were quite ready, but deing no damage whatever. 8hj
glided into the middle of the river, and was then towed t)
i the foet of Korth Moore street, North rtrer, whore she is
to now ljlDg, having her boilers inserted,
i Tbe Mount Vernon is a screw steamer of 600 tons regisr
ttr, 160 feet keel, 28 feet beam and 14 foet 6 lnAe* bold,
very strongly and substantially built. Her frame is of
r- white oak and hackmatack, and the Is diagonally Iron
a strapped outside of the frame. Her plank is oak below
y and > eliow pine above, lir. S. Snoden is the builder.
Her engine is a 44 inch diameter and 42 inch stroke
? direct acting condensing engine, and was constructed by
5, Pusey, Jones & Bette, of Wilmington, Del.
j Her boiler is a horizontal tubular boiler, and hor rudder
' is mane of wrought iron. The propeller wheel is twelve
feet in diameter, and has four blades. All the stern work
g connected with tt.e snail is very strong anl substantial.
She will carry about 6C0 tons ol freight, besides fuel &c.
She Is debigned to travel at the speea of eleven knots
10 an hour, and, in fact, greater speed will perhaps be
:, utcereaiy in order to make one trip a week, that is, to
j. Washington and back, as is designed.
, The accrmmodations for passengers, although they aro
* not going to be very extensive?about sulllclent for forty
n or hit} persons?are lo bo very eiegont. A large saloon
j. is constructed, and if to be fitted up In the same style as
ihe European teamen, and all the furniture Is lo be of
die hanoponjcBt and most approved pattern.
lO Another steamer for this line, to bo named the Montiu
cello, after the residence ol Jefferson, Is being built by
Mr. Snellen, and is now in Williams' yard, and will soon
be ready to be launched.
Mr. John fciaird, of this city, Is the designer of the macblncry
of the Mount Vernon, as also of that of that of toe
8 M on lied lo; the R. R. Cuyler, at Sneden's yard; the
>> Honda, being built at tho foot of Thirteenth street, and
*" tt.e Matanzas, being built for Morrer Brothers, Navarro
" & Co., to run between New York and Matanzas. Tho
Matanzas is the hist entirely iron steamer ever built in
r" ibis country. All the others built in inis country have
w been made partly of iron and partly of wood. She is
6 atiout 810 tons burthen.
The Mount Vernon and the Montlce'Io aro the only ones
>- tout are to run on the hue beiween Washington and New
York: but Mr. Baird'n machinery?the direct acting coo

It If no* ascertained, and on food authority I run giro
yon the cause of the forcible detention of the conducts by
Bob lea.
wtitu the cor m'rtloD of three merchants (Bog'iab,
French and Spanish) accompanied by their reepectiv
Coniuia. le, cheii the camp of Roblca, the latter expressed
btmrelf greatly retonisbed at the request of the merrb.nte,
stating th?t the order from the government o
Miramon to detain tie conducts was issued at the earnest
request ard deraauu of the British and French Ministers
at Mexico, and that U ey had insisted that under'no.conticeiatun
abonld the conducta funds pa*s through Vera
Crtz; that tbey tad further offered, in order to facilitate
tir. bark alien, any cf the armed vesse'a, both French and
Krigiigh, now at Si-cr ficioe, to receive the nmncy. where
' "i-r ur imniii/ m gui use ,r, u? ? w Auvfjuit "r
Mocambo, but to avoid by all means shipping It through
it* itgiiin ate ci i-nnel?Vera Cruz:
Hie purpose was natural, when the commimion continned
tnppbcatii g him to abstain from the execution of |
such icitructiona, because they, as owners of the funds, i
hud a better right to dispose of tbem than Messrs.
Oiway and Gabriac, who, they were sorry to say,
they never knew to .ttend to the interest of.their countrymen.
The commission then handed to Gen. Roblea a
written declaration of the commanders of the French and
English fleets at Sacriflcios, In which they point blank reicttu
leoeey it e luslructlons of their Ministers at Mexi
n; and farther, tt&t on no account would they rerri'f
t't mime- at the dtslgnatel place on the beach,
being too weQ aware that it would be against the existing 1
laws of the oonntry and defending the government at
Monterey.
Kobits then stked for twenty four hours to* deliberate,
consult and communicate with the command-'* at Sac
rill Jos. lb is was granted. Ten hours after this
conteunce, up comes Chpt Farragut, of the tUnited
States steamer Brooklyn, accompanied by his flrst lieutenant,
claiming that part of the oooducta funds belonged
to American citizens. The appearance and the demand
ol' Capt. Farragut made Robies come to terms, and
he at cnce agreed to the lree transit of the conducts
Capt. Farragut then placed the American flag over tho
convoy, and accompanied the same to Pasodi Doejas,
from whence It reached here In due time.
The commission or merchants and the Consuls of France
and Great Britain continued their parlance with Ruble*,
not. however, any more about the release of the conducta,
(this had been s (footed already by the prompt interference
of Capt. Farragut), but about another and a very
serious matter. Robies, to cover his necessities, bad
helped himself already to the amount of $20,000, of which
he mace a confession, at the tamo time insisting on
$10,100 more, to enable him to retreat with bis forces to
Jalaps.
This was quite a delicate point to touch. Tho embezzlement
surprised every one. The merchants and the
ColsuIb were not authorized to depose of funds belong,tig
to the commerce of the republic. Still, they agreed on
taking Pobles'''word of honor" to repay at some future
day?which, in my opinion, will be doomsday.
ConmrMK on such outrageous proceedings of Otway,
Gabi lac, Rob lee and Miramon arc useless.
Ilrw did Mr. Otway dare to give ma consent to a clandestine
shipment of money trim the beach; and how
could M. Gabriac insist that the merchants' property
stou'd be jeopardized by smuggling It forcibly out of the
country, defying the government of Juarez, setting at
risk mo tlve millions and lnrilnglng the tariff of 1866,
which both he and Mr. Otway so strenuously enforced
tome t'me ago?
The wishes and tffb will of the owners of the money by
tbe{conducta were not consulted by those worthies, otherwise
they would not bare acted as they did.
Eow coulu they dare to dispose the direction and destination
of the money beiongtrg to American citizens?
Remittances Intended tor tbe United 8'ates, amounting
to about a million, for which the T> nn's-co had been detained
for two weeks, would, If the instructions of Mr. Otway
bad been carried out, now be on their way to England.
Why did not Mr. Otway and Count Gabriac oppose
! the robbery at Mexico of tbe eight per cent collected by '
Miramon on tbe lands by the conducts? Why did they
aide wnh Miramon and against the interest of their country
men ?
Is the tariff of 1866, which they so vigorously enforced ,
some time ago, now for them a dead letter ? Dors not ,
this very tariff stipulate an export duty of three and a '
half per cent to be paid at the port of exportation? Why
did not Messrs Otway and Gabriac deny the rigbt of
Miramon to collect a higher duty than that established by
the tariff of 1656? Why did they not oppose tbe collection
of expert duty on money which is not intended for
shipment or export?
With what right did Miramocidecl&re the five millions by
tbe conducts bis private property, and deoree Its destination
when it Is the private property of merchants, subjects and
citizens of different nations, to meet their engagements
abroad?
Tbe embezzlement of tbe (30,000 from the conducts by
Robies baa created quite a sensation in this quarter, and
even bis friends here confess themselves sorry fort e act
committed.
Thanks for tbe prompt measures taken by Mr. McEane
in commissioning Capt. Farragut for the rescue of the
conduct*.
ir It fifcd not been for the Tory opportune visit of Caption
Farrsgut, Roblea would have pitched la a "leelie
deeper "
Toe English Consul at this ptaee having denied all concert
of action with the American interest, Captain Farra|ut
vety prudently avoided meeting the commission at
the camp ot Roblea, and ignored altogether their presence
and the price paid by the merchants and Consuls to Ro
Dies; and, when advised of tbefr proceedings on his return,
Captain Farrsgut enjayed a hearty lau^b, < xcla ming
that they had paid too dear for their interview with
Rohles.
Topic and San Bias have been taken by tho liberals,
and Col. Jerez In command of the federal forces, lost big
life in the action. On returning to San Bias a contraband
of tome 1200,000 in specie was discovered and fell Into the
baiide ol tbe liberal forces.
The English merchants banished by Miramon from
Mexico are hourly expected here. Their number is about
filter n.
Their only crime is the representation they made to Mr.
Otway, of which f sent j ou a copy. Mr. Otway denies an
English subject the right to censure his acts or the acts of
a Minister, and insisted on their banishment.
Mirsmon willingly compiled with the desire of Minister
Otway, and the latter, to show himself inoulgcnt, required
retraction of wbat bad been said in the representation. I
This the Englishmen at Mexico declined, and so their ex >
pulsion from the country follows. They may pay you a
visit.

As I am told in town, Mr. Mi lane Is heartily tired of
the ratling! ment ot Mr Juarez s Cabinet: he pernaps at
this moment regrtts bis having dealt so frankly with
them, as he cannot help becoming convinced that only by
Intrigue they can he managed.
He is iu ro way to be blamed, as old residents assure
me that they have been arcrived, giving the present
Cabinet credit for fair dealing, considering them tatu ex
ception to the general mie to be applied to Mexicans
Ltroo has ideas which cannot be carried out, of whivh
be cannot be cnnviDoed, and Ocampo is sucn a poor politician
that be wnl be better out of the Cabinet at tbe
bead of bis Italian colonies, wbc, by-the bye, all dispersed,
afltr cosiiig large suub to tbe government, to
tbe prejudice of Vera Cruz merchants, as I have been told,
as Mr. Ucampo permit ed the contraband oa the coast,
without control, and out of tbe proceeds of dunes
such importt rs might choose to pay tbe I tallies, his hobby
horse had to be fed.
Tbat Mr Juarez is not the men required by tho cir
cumstatcee everybody knows, aim he is only upheld as
the representative of legality Be It bonest,and to are
bis Ministers; but that la not enough, although it is Bay- i
ing much in Mexico

may withdraw and leave the oountrv to lie late, In which
caee everything >s lott, and merchants will have to

even II it were to take place m?'
It would be owtrg to the step tulen by Mr. Mclane that
euch a measure might be decided upon m England, and on
acsount of the man; crimes of Meters Miramon, Otway &
Co. being made known to tho world; but in such an event
would not tbe refusal of paying the Guanajuato robbery
form an invlnclote obstacle to such a measure?
But will it suit the United States to interfere or not ? I
believe It will in tne long run, and they are the
enly jcople to do It. If they fail to acoompliin it,
yon will fee that this country becomes a
second St. Domingo, and every loieigner win uj
to leave aa Boon aa possible, which moat of them would

that a childish fear of fllibua erlam prevented any clear

If It does come at all, when'it will bo too late.
if tbe poor mrrebants have to wait till next session o

It must be to, as botb pai ties are abort of money, and

there is no fear of punishment for any depredations they

Letter from tli* Hon. Daniel E. Ilekloo,
TO THJS SUIT B OF Till H RAM).
New Yobk, July 19,18fi9.
Through the courae of tad event*, which during the last
few months have brought to much affliction upon my fttmlly,
I have been silent. No arnc unt of mlsrepreaentaUon
iffecting myself only cou'd induce me now to open my
tp?; nor could I deem It wor>h while under anj^lreumitanccs
to notice what has been or ran be said In journals
lever regarded as the sources or the exponents of public
pinion, for In these U Is too often obvious that only
inwortby motives prompt the most vindictive assaults
ipon the private life of cillsens holding public stations.
Jut the editorial comments in the HeraLD or yesterday,
ilibough censorious, (of which I do not complain, whilst 1
cad ibem with regret), differ so widely in tone and tem*r
from the mass of nonsense and calumny which
laa isttiy been written concerning n recent
svent In my doxiestlc relations, that I cannot allow a misakc,
into which yon have be? u led by inaccurate lnfor
nation, to pata without such a direction aa will relieve
itbera from any share of the reproaches which it ia the
pleasure ot the multiluue at ihla moment to heap upon mo
and mine.
Referring to tbe forglvenesa wbleb my sense of duty
ltd my feelings impelie<l m> to extend to on erring and
repentant wife, you ootcrve, in tbe cooraeof your temperate
and dignified article, that, " It la said, however, that
ibe last phase of the affair waa brought about through the
advice of bis lawyers " This ia entirely erroneous. I
did not exchange a word wuh one of my counsel upon the
lubject, nor with any one clao My reconciliation with
my wife was my own act, done without consultation
with any relative, connec.tjn, fiiend or adviser.
Whatever blame, if any belongs to the step, should fall
tlone upon me. I am prepared to defend what I have
lone before the on y Uibunais I recognise as having the
slightest claim to Jurisdiction over tne subject?my own
conscience ctJ the bar of Heaven. I am not aware or any
f aiute, or code o( morn*, wbtcb makes it infamous to
forgive a woman; tor is it usual to make our domestic Ufa
a subject ot constitution w.tj friends, no matter how near
scd dear to us Ana I cannot allow even all the world
combined to delate to me tbe repudiation of my wi'e,
when 1 think it right to forgive ntr, and restore her to my
confluence and protection.
If I ever failed to cooiprebecd tbe utterly desolate position
of an offending ibougn pemk nt wo nun?the hopeUse
future, wi-h all lis carl; possibilities of danger, to
wb.ch she is doomed when proscribed aa an outcast?
I can now tee plainly enougn, in the almost
un'versal bowl of denunciation with which aha
la followed lo my t' r>about, tne m sery and perils from
which I have rescued the mother of my onlld. and although
it ik very atd lor me to incur lire blame of friends
and the rep>o?cbea of rr.unv wise and good people, I shall
strive to prove to ail wno fed any uttered in me, that If I
um the fint h.an who baa veniu-ed to aay to the world
an erring w fe and mother c.iy be lorgivenund redeemed,
ibat In suite of ail the o s aci.a d oy pa h the good results
of tbls example sbau entitle it to tbe Imitation of the
gererouB and tbe commendation of the just.
l'bere ute many ?bo ibuac tb*t an act of duty, proceeding
solely from affections which c*b only be comprehended
in the heart of a huacand and a fa'Dcr, ia to be fatal to
my prilesslcua), political tod social standing. If this
be so, ib-n so be It. Political station, proferslr
ral success, social recognition, aro not tho only
prizes i f ambition; ore I barn seen enough of tbe world
in which I have moved, in>l read enough of the Uvea of
u'U' rs, iw <wu mo umt, ii uuu ut- rotteui ana rcaojuic, it
i? the Diau htmrelf wbo iodtc&tfS the ptace be will occupy;
sud to toe* at I do nothing worse th'in to rounlte
my family ntdir the roof ?Lr: e tbty may Had shelter
(rrni contumely aud pe-eecmiuu, 1 do not fear tbe noisy
but fleeilrg voice of topular clamoi. Vhe multitude scct'pt
itr tr fit*t ;itjpie3ttob? from a few: bat in tbe end
at n tbn.k lor tbemeulves, and if I Know tbe human
h?art ? and lon.ftliurs I bit k that in a career of mingled
n or hie and ttoim I tare eouc 'id beany al: lis depths?
ibtn I may reeMere ihoff ?to look with reluctant foreboding*
upoo my future to be 01 good cbe.r, for 1 trill uot
c- tie to vicd'cato a just claim to tbe respect
of my fellows; wbiie to those motley group*,
tere and there. v?uo look upon my misfortunes
rely a? weaccns to bo employed for my destruction,
to ihot' I say, once "or all.il a man make a
prod use of hie enem'es tbey will be as serviceable to
him at his friend a.
Ir conclusion, lot me ark only one favor of these who,
from whatever motive, may cumit necessary or agreeab
e lu ccn.tr> ct in public or private upon this sal history;
end that is, to a m a>l tboir arrows at my breast, ana for
