tfixfco, July 7, 1870.
The information which has Just reached us or the
exact condition of things along the Mexican main
eoaat of the GUlt of California is far from satisfactory.
Not hi us: ia known up to this moment of the
whereabouts of young Mejia, sun of the Secretary
of War, who was carried away aa a captive by Viscayno
on the Forward. The latter, however, gave
his word of houor to Mr. Willard, United States
Consul at Guaymas, that he xliould not be Injured.
Of the value of such promise (lie reading public will
Jndge for Itself. It Is known that the greater part
of the mercantile houses which suffered from the
Back were American, English an I Spanish, and that
Ue government baa sent troops to col'ect and return
to them so much of tills property us can be found at
Teptc, Tcacapam or othur places on tiic (Jul)'of California,
where they were lauded by Viscayno. It appears
that 011 the 9th of May last thu Mexican Consul
at San Francisco address*! a letter to Governor
RuDl, of Sinaloa, advising liiiu of the departure of the
Cart, a Hailing vessel, bound for the Mexican coast,
with arms ou board and a few filibusters. Satu
saBel was captained by one Mr. Norton. Subsequently
the Forward went into the gulf, and Us captain.
Mr. Jansen, was aarestel and held
on suspicion, and it appears that while
lie was so held ' Viscayno ran otr with
the steamer Forward, aud wiUi hia accomplices
froiu Teple committed the outrages at Guajrmas.
Orders have been issued by ilie government here to
prevent the disposal of ail property put ashore from
the Forward or the sailing vessels she had in tow,
and also for the apprehension of 1'iacido Vega and all
his accomplices. To that euil an abundance of troops
tore been placed at the disposal of General Corona
who commands the Western district. The military
eommander or the district of Tepic telegraphs the
government here that he hopes young Mejia was
token ashore before the Forward was burned,
bat does not know, lie proposes, however, to scour
the coast lor him and inform of the result immediately.
The condition of affairs Is plainly sucii on the western
coast of Mexico that the nation most have
some lron-ciads there to protect tbe commerce of the
various seaports. An opportunity may be here afforded
to some enterprls nj shipowner to sell some
mail iron-clads cheap far cash to the Mexican
government. Vfgu's piau contemplated the robbery
of San Bias almost immediately, and soon after the
rainy season should be well set In the occupatlou
of Mauitan and tha collection there of a forced loan.
The following Is the "order" or Instructions of the
revolutionist Placldo Vega to Fortlno Vlscarno,
leader or the force which sacked (iuaymas, having
made that port on the steamer Forward:?

#f the Expedition.
Teacai-am, May 18, 1870.
The charges recently ma<le by a portion or the
American press against President Juarez, based
upon evidence rumored to have been given before a
Joint committee at Washington, D. C., have not
ceased to be commented upon here. It is to be rerecorded,
however, as a fact that, so far, your correspondent
has failed to see a .Mexican newspaper
which has permitted the publication of a single line,
except in reproral of said chargcs, no matter how
bitter political enemies the proprietors and editors
Of the opposition mar t>e. One of the most scathing
Qtt-adminutratlou newspapers of the capital has
recently denounced the oharges as slanderous and
an insult to a neighboring and friendly nation.
It is now stated here boldly, and without fear of
successful contradiction, thai President Juarez has
Iwaya been sincere in his friendship ror the United
States, and especially in its late struggle with the
rebellious portion thereor, and that any testimony
given to set forth an opposite feeling has been so
given for the absolute purpose of misrepresenting,
or, to be most lenient, given upon a hearsay lnlorjnation.
There was a time dur.ng tne last year or
more or the Confederate struggle when the
Antarnnr of New Leon, nrovinir recreant to
the long standing friendly relations between
himself and President Juarez, passed into the
MMmie!)' camp and Ideninied himself with
tne imperial partf. I refer to Governor Santiago
Yldanri. It is stated In regard to ti m that ne nad
political and business relations with the Confed
rates 011 the Texas side of tne Rio Grande, and
that he, Vldaurl. permitted and facilitated the
change of arms and munitions of war for cotton,
thus Tarnishing the enemies of the United States
with the means for continuing their straggle. At
that time, huwever, Yidauri had ceased to I101U
any but uuiriendly relations with tne liberal government
?.r Mexico, although Ins tlrm adhesion for Very
many years to that party was notorious. It is more
thau likely, uiereiore, that the error has been made
In the Umted Mates of supposing that the old relations
between I'res.doni Juure/. and Governor
Vidauri cxi<*i<.d when the la ter was lacllltating the
obtuluing of material of war by the confederacy;
and mat, consequently, tna reputation of President
Juarez lus sunered ior the moment for the acts of
an enemy au.i traitor to hiieral principles and to tne
liberal party In Mexico. If this xiiould prove 10 bo
the case the name ol Benito Juarez: can suiter no
tarnish, but rather shine witn more effulgency after
rnnuing the fle.y gm.ntlet of deiamation or uninteiKled
misrepresentation, whichever it shall resu.t
|o toe.
Tli?re already, unfortunately, exists too many
lost motivAM ah the Mo urtiiniA frontier for serious
NEW Y
disputes between the United States and Meztoo to
make tt necessary to Invent anr nior*. The Mexican
press accuse the American people of the latter quite
frequently, a newspaper or this capital, after aatisfylug
Its greedy readers witb a tirade upon all partie*,
winds op thus:?
The port of Teacanam Is the name which the
wiivern 01 iut) nvi'i umiKU, cuijiiTiiig mio tun ova,
has dividing the state of Jalisco from S.ualoa. W e
have, then, these trrave antecedents:?
Wr. t?That an A iu ncau Cousul la uermlttefl to
Jrlve orders to a shut of liln nation to exercise acu of
unsdiction within The limit* ol our country.
'frr'.nw!?That the authorities 01 <iua> man approve
0! that conduct contrary to the Interests ol the republic.
and do not protect In all due form against
that violation. If it if hue that the Consul had acted
by his Individual Impulse.
T/nra?'i hat the commandcr of an American manor-war
declares as a pirate a sliip which was nut a
pirate, destroys it in the terrltorl.il waters of Mexico
and kills s.x-ailors which were found onboard of
said ship.
Fourth?That tho federal government docs not
condemn these acts.
In order to understand and judge the subject of
which wo treat it in necessary before all to point out
clearly to what class of people is legally Riven the
name of pirates. The majority of the law authorities
agree in this delliittion:?Piiaie< are robber on
the sea, who perform acta of vloleuoe, robbery and
depredation upon nil nations In liscriuiiuatfliv.
J'irates are outside of the limits of tlio law; no civilize
I people give Uwiii protection, it Is lawful to
<le-tr <y th iu in any manner and In nny circumstance,
or ie t to perish ir they are shipwrecked, and
by that uct no crime Is commuted before the laws of
nations. Well, then, wero the crcws 01 the
ships of Foruno Virzo.iino In thai condition!1
It is known t!'at they were not. it was
a!3o evident to the government by the reports
01 its sjenti that Virzoalno was an emissary
of Fiacldo Vega, who Is found at the i.eaa or a facin
n; thai is to say. that lie acts coutrary to the estab
1-ihed authority, but lie Is not in open war ag ilust
either the Mexican society, or much 1-^s against all
tiie people or the world.
That the as-aulters of Guaym is mar have committed
excesses 01 every kin i is not a sudlcieut reason
lor declaring tliem pirates, sluce there Is a gre it
diiference between this clai-s of delinquents and
those who take up arms to sustain political opinions,
even when the ;nr.v ol party, as oft n happens in
or atrocity.
Further, even supposing without conceding that
they in reality kUouUI have t.een pirates, *vo fin I o irFelves
as yet In gieat dlflleulty because the constitution
(ar.. DO, sec Ion 2) and tMe former i.iws (that 01
the 14tli of Fcbrda y, lsiW) attribute tlic cogiuzanco
of those crime i to trio tribunals of the ledeiatiou,
alone competent. Here we see, however, 1 lie case
w here an Anieilcan Consul iafc?'s upon lilnisell the
right to judite in our territory, and to jjlvo a sentence
which Is exojuted by lorces of Ins nation
within the limits of our Join iln. SVe see t.iat, according
to tiio Dlurio. 110 one solicited liia aid
(whlcli was not sent even In time to anpreheiid <lie
ofTtMiders), and tiiat Hie local autnorliies. dl.-avowlng
their duties, do not even manifest their disapprobation;
th.it theiioverninem of Jse.lor Juarez, appears
not even to be do lded to show that it con tenuis and
dl-.owiis the legality cf those acts, nor even submits
to a severe judgment those wn<i (111 so badly tue
charge of watching over tne luwgiiry of tlie republic.
OUR COMMERCIAL MARINE.
Tlews of a Shipbuilder.
To THE EPITOU OF THE llKBALD:?
I have read with great interest your editorials on
"American Commerce and the Failure of Congress
to rasa the Bill to Admit Foreign Ships to American
T liflVtf nlivfiva h/>A'i nnr.Ai<>/1 tr\ Uto u/1.
ralwlon of to eUn shipping to American register,
thinking that Congress might pass Homo favorable
hill that woul 1 allow us some privilege and advantages
to build a ship so th.it wj could compete with
oiner nations; but all theie years of wating and
nothing done. All this time is lost and our tonnage
Is growing less every day. In Boston, where tiicy
have from twenty-five to thirty shipyards, there is
not one keel laid. L?t Congress pass any bill to a Imlt
all articles that ito into the construction and
repairs of a ship, stores, Ac., free. This country
cannot compete with Europe; our labor is too high.
For tho past seven years not a ship carpenter
has had work enotiga to te i<jh a young man the
business, and it is now a fact that it is almost an
impossibility to get any first class alilp carpenter to
build ship-!. Tlio.ie that :ire in the navy yards are so
slow that they are oi' but little use to outside builders.
1 am conndent that we cannot build up our
mercantile marine with any aid we can get from
Congress. Our people will not enter into shipping
when the government wants money ana will pay
from seven to twelve per cent for it; they will not
invest in ships out. ot their sig.it; they want the coupons
every six months.
1 uavo spent much time and many years fh shipbuilding.
aud have come to the conclusion that It is
impossible Tor this country to computi with Kurope,
for the reason 1 have n.imc:L TU-i n iturnl course of
events may In years bring about a change for our
oenent, as wen as me ia.it war nas Drought me
change now. We cannot make nor work impossibilities.
The wants or the country may Ui in favor
<<1 American commerce, but where is the money
coming from? You are confident that the English
line< have run many years and made losses. They
nave continued, and at last iun<'e a success. Hut
if our A.neric.in people put on a line
and they don't draw twenty per cent the
first year It Is abandoned and the Rtnps
are sold under the tlag. The English people
are satisfied with much less profits than our people.
You might just as we;l try to raise sugar cau , bananas,
oranges and all other foreign produce In the
city or New York as to raise shipbuilding lu this
country. It cannot he done now; It Is an utier impossibility,
as the tide is aga.nst us, and we 111 ght as
well admit it now as wait a.^oher seven years.
What benefit Is it to the industry o: the Riilpbullders,
mechanics and the shipyard with all of Mr.
Kelly's protection policy ? What does it a>lil to the
Indus.ry of? Not the labor o. one man, and it may
remain for years lu tue same way with hli pro teclion
policy.
I do think that the people of this country now
should rise and say to Pennsylvania that we hat e
been made tools of long enough by that State, with
their high tariff ou iron, steel aud coal. Let her
protect herselr, as the other States, with their own
industry. They want the assistance and co-operation
of all thu other States, that iney shall humb e to
them. I think now the people can see for themselves
their own lutcrest aud not let us
be liumbu^g d any longer. I am not in
favor or congress admittiug free all tue lorelgii
slnps, but am confident that, as a nation, we must
comply with our circumstances now. The opportunity
may neer occur ajaln. We may lose tins opportunity;
then we will beentlrely leltoutln the cold
and our co.nmerce will be a cipher; aud now we
can increase it. We cannot carry the merchandise
with our sli ps across the Atlantic; our capitalists
will not Invest in ihein, and what we have now are
unlit for the service. Still there is a leeiing tnat we
will not admit foreign ships. Why not? It cannot
injure us, as It will add fl-creat deal to our wealth;
and ir we do not admit theni we cannot have any.
I am In hopes that something w?l! be done at once
that will influence Congre s to pass such & bill Sis
will admit a.I ships, steamers and vessels of al: nations
that want to avail themselves of our flag, and
vuen once rcjnsiereu miner our hub me> chi.iioi
cinti?e to another. Tills clause Wviuld only cover
the class tlisi ply regularly between European and
American port?. If an owner 01 one slim desires
to sell h.s ship to s party to go under another flag
tie Hlioul'l be allows; but I think a bill to admit
those slups for tne present emergency should not be
allowed; they might want to transfer again Immediately
after the war closes in Europe. The shipbuilders
may talk and importune Cohgresa and do all they
can; they Mil not build a snip, nor can they. I
have abandoned the business, or, ratnor, the business
has abandoned ine. They ail have to try something
else for a living. I received a letter to-day
from Quebec from a shipowner stating that if Congre-<s
passes the bill to admit foreign sh ps he will
come immediately and transfer his thins under the
American fla^. NATHANIEL MCKAY.
THE MUROEa AND H1ICI0- AT CONHtAUT.
[From the Erie Dispatch, July 13.]
A terrible tragedy occurred In the township of
Conneaut, about two and a half miles jroui the
bo. ouj{h, 011 the road to ItidgevlUe. A well-to-do
farmer named Ralph Wright resided there. He was
about sixty years of age a id his w.fe flfiy-flve.
Four dauRhters lived with tliem?two between the
ages oi ten and twelve and two three or four years
older. On Monday night Mr. Wrlgnt and ins wife
visited Stepnen Daniels, a ncigibor, re timing
about nine o'clock. Nothing uuusual appeared
to be the matter at the time, Dut at about
three o'clock yesterday morning Mrs. Wrisrht
was aroused by her husband making a murderous
attack on her with a hatchet, sne scream d
and sprang out of bed, and tne children cauic into
the room. One of the older sirls. at the risk of her
own life, sprung between her tat her ami mother and
f;rasped the hatches uhicti she succeede 1 In wrestng

slashed at out the bauds, arms and head, ran down
stairs and in o he wt o lshert. her hu-biinl following,

ol the head, burying the biade in her skull. 8tie
staggered a couple or steps an I sank down In tne
grass. Meantime the children had ruu after the
neighbors. The tracks of the mnrderer showed tiiat
he had gone up stairs to the rooms occuptcil by the
girls, carrying the bloody axe with tne intention of
also murdering them. Wlie i the ncmhbors arrived,
Mrs. Wright w.is still alive, but speechless, she
breathed her last about haii an hour art-:r the
attack. Before leaving tuc house l ho murderer set
fite to It, aud il was with tne greatest difficulty that
the names were dually subdues. When the flic was

In tlie Sixth ward Is located Itoyd's* IliU. whose

Hie Mouousralieia. river, which (lows ulori;j its goo in
side. At tne base of tne lili! rum flic truck f the '
Pittsburg and ConneJlsville Railroad, andaii along
the tip of the hill Is Hitilf street. The descent in
niuny places Is perp ndicular, wiiUe m others the.
clnf at the top juts over like, as It, w r*, a massive
cornice to the lull, while for uearlv the ".'lire lenctit
"of the hill lis laco Is covered with pi jocting and
shelving rocks.
Aiiotit eleven o'clock yesterduy mprnii g Jlariin
Cro sman, lour years of ago, son of R<James
Crossman, with a nuuiocr of other boys, most of
them a Utile older than he, wer : mi ring oa one of
the projecting roclls ;u tne henO of Van H aani s reet,
at which point the cliir readies its highest ultitude,
and the descent Is almost if not ijutte n rpendieniar
to the railroad tiaek, a dis iiice <>i :uj ioct. one of
the larger boys discovered s< luc'lnu^ at the eil'ge of
th3 rock whi- h pleased his fancy a,nl rjquostod Marti
n to get it for uim. In obe Hence to lite request
tne little fellow stooped ov.r to secure the coveted
article, and losinx hi i balance, fell headlong down
the piecimce, striking head foremost on the ralltoarl
track below.
A gentleman at work n sliort distance from the
spor saw linn fall, and, at the same instant, saw tiio
express train ou the railroad rapidly approachiug
tlie spot where the body was lying, seeing the Impending
danger lie rash.d to the ty-it, and. a. the
risk of ills llle, spraug iipou the tra-k 111 Iron:, or the
train, which came ihtindcrlitg aloti* at lightning
spued.but a few yards distant, and .lug th? fuscnHible
body of the child had barely time to sprunr o
the sldfc of Hie track next to the hill, where, laying
closely to the rocks, he remained until the tram had
passed, brushing his clothes in us rapid flight, so
narrow was the spat,; betwein it and the rock
He then turned his attention to the child in his
arms; to h s utter amazement he iound It alive, bin
insensible from the severe shock. He quickly had it
conveyed to the residence ot its parents on wrick's
alley, and I Ho. Ballon and Green wait were smnj
num '<1. On examination it was found tnit the little
leliow had ro.-eived nevere injuries, though so far as
could be ascertained none of tliein art; necessarily
fatal. His ritiht arm was fractured In two places,
and there were two panelurcd wounds on the head,
but the skull was not fractured. There were quite a
number of contusions on different parts of the body,
none of which wore of a serious < haiv.cter. Toe
fractures were reduced and the other wounds properly
dressed, and at a late hour last evening the
child was In a fair ?vay to recover.
Thai the little fellow was not killed Instantly is
certainly but little less than a miracle, and that uccldents
are not more frequent at this place la a great
wonder. Wc, on the occasion of au A cident wnicli
occurred at or noar this pnwc over a year t-ince,
urged not only the propriety, but the a???olute necessity,
of liavinc a l'euce erected aloi j the brow of
the lull, as it is beyond doubt one of the most dangerous
places in the city.
A FcARFUL FaLL .
A Boy and Ilorso Plunged Forty Feet Down
a Mineral Shaft?Singular Ewcape.
[From the Dubuque (Iowa) Herald, July 14.]
Mr. Hoerner, a veil known and respected citizen
of Dubuque, who resides In the Fifth ward, was
called upon to witness a scene yesterday the memory
ot which can never pass from his remembrance,
lie has two sons, bright, promisli ? boys, named
John and Davd, and aged nine and twelve years respectively.
Yesterday morning the boys mounted
the horses and started oiT In searcn of some cows,
leaving befor? breakfast, with the expectation of returning
in a short time. Little did they dream of
the terrible accident in store for them, back of
Shankland's nurse.y, on McKmgbt's land, lsan old
mining district wiiich Is fairly honevcomb?rt with
mineral shafts Mr great majority of which were
abandoned years ago a id the entrances permitted
to grow up with brtnh and weeds. The
hoys were passing over this dangerous piece
of ground, David, the elder, beiug a suort
distance in advance, when suddenly, qnick
as thought, instantaneous as the lightning
flash, the ground beneath gavw way and the horse
sa.k backward. Trn animal made one convulsive
etTori aud screamed wKii terror, I ke a?;cmanbeing;
but It via no use. and horns and rider were precipitated
down an old mineral fitcft over forty leee-ln
depth, and fell, striking 011 the jau^e-l nides, to me
bottom. For an Instant the remalrmup bey was
speechless with terror, and ihen he turned his
horse and lashed him at full speed homeward. Mr.
Uoemer was Just sitting down to breakrast wnen m
came Johnny, pale, excited, breathless, With tne
startling announcement mat his brothnr ind novae
li.id fallen down a mineral Rhait. Tne nearly frantic
ratner at once procured a le v rojtcs, and summoning
some neighbors repaired to the spot, Wondcrlui
to relate, neither horse nor boy was killed by tl.e
fall, and a-t.de irora the spraining of one 01 his arms
David received no otli r Injury, Tlie.y struck tne
bottom of the shaft togethei, tne horse undermost,
and ihen With his one sound arm David attempted
to climb out of the horrible pit. He crawled up the
side of the shaft about twenry-flve feci, when, becoming
fnlnt anu diz>y, he let go Ills hold and roll to
tne bottom again. Bruised and bleeding the boy
was undaun ed, and lie made a second attempt,
working hu way up to withiti about fifteen feeioi
the suiwee, when the snart ciosednp like an arch
ovmhead, and lie could go no tiutlicr. In sheer dm
peration lie c! ng to tne rot ks with ot;e hand, suspended
in mid air. and in nils condition lie wae
found by his lallier. Hopes were soon called intc
reiiDlaijtion, a running noose was ilxed, and into th a
David tnrust hi-* howl and *lionlders, and more dead
than alive lie was drawn out andcinsped in his lathers
arms. Attempts were made to rescue the horse, but
tlicy were not successful, and the poor animal died
In the pit. As ror David, the main hero ol the ad
venture, he is alive and well, and spared to live with
those who can never be too gruifiul tor his bappj
