"The Oceans, from Weston, came *0 yesterdav with the two McDaniels, John and David, who were principal parties in the murder* of the Mcxicaiu Chavis. The sherif' of Jackson county has them in charge. and reports that seven of the baud. and among them Dr. Prefuntaine, refised to participate in the death of Chavis. These seven desertod the rest, lost their horses, were compelled to secrete their booty on the prairie. and come .nto Inde pendence on foot and penhiless. Dr. P. has not been thken, and will probably es cape. -The MeDaniels, lason and Brown were the actual perpetrators of this horri ble crime. One of the Seareys, selected for this office, backed out atnd Brown took his-place. Masdi and Berry have turned State's evidence, and agree in their state ments. Macon 'declares be fired after Chavia fell. He remains at Independence to identify those a bo cane in. -No money was found in possession of one of the prisoners here. About $J5,000. said to belong to the other, was found in bullion in a desk in the office of the clerk of the county court at Liberty. It was no: obtained without threats on the part of those in search that they would destroy the building. "It is said that the trial of the McDan ie!s in the circuitcourtof the United States will take place immediately. Gen. Doni phan, of Clay county. and Biennerhasseto are cqunsel for the prisoners, who have plenty of money. "It is reported that the Searcys have been taken in Platte country. he two Harrises and Talbott had escaped. but officers and people were in close pursuit, and expected to overtake them.'' The N. Y. Aurora, which professes to know something about the parties and their designs, makes the following remarks upon the subject. The "Colonel Warfield" here alluded to is tbe son of a very worthy and respec table merchant in New Orleans, and has roClaimed that he goes out merely as a adprivateer against Mexico, and that American traders will not be itterrapted or disturbed by hin or his company. The Missouri company are of the same kidney, and are doubtless cruising under similar colors. They will not touch the Ameri can traders-but they declared a war, or rather a hunt, of eaterminiation against the Mexicans, both io their lives and property. One of the Missouri gang who murdered Chavis-Dr. Prefountaiu-we know wall. He formerly was a practisiug physician in St. Louis, and is one of the keenest, shrewdest,and most plausible men we ever wet. He is admirably culculated in every way to be the leader of so desperate an enterprize. And now, lt us look at this matter seriously- for it is serious, and will soon, we fear, beenme more so. This movement is but an extension and an improvement upon a systemu which has been in operaticto many years amon:at the frontier men or Miawuri. many of whomi have made iamense suns of money in the one simple borauch of mule stealing fron the Santa Fe Mexicans and Indians. Now, we see, other species of robbery, anti murder itself, have been added to the rule of performances, The professions of these nc that they molest no Americana, are sitcero and true. With all thcir laxity of justice. their barbarism abd ferocity, u moure honorable raco of men. (in some ac ceptationse of that much al'umed wtord.) never existed. They would not hesitate to steal, and rob, and even to assassinate -they will never touch one of their fellow citizens, save in the way ofkintdness or a "fair fight with no grudging and anuimosi ty." In many respects these wild men resetmble the Arabs of the desert, who, ttu all their life of multiplied crme, netver farget or violate the rites'or Lhospitatty ansd this observance is called upun,in good sooth, to stand for much! So with our Bedouins of the Prairies. It is no crime, with them, to rob and kifl a Mexican, or to shoot down a "vaimint" of a Cuma 'che, burn op his wig wam and its itnmates, and carry of' his mule.! He. is only a AlMexican a Cutnanche !, But they will not Smolest the American traders! And these outrage' have been perpetrated for years and4 years, without attracting any attenton Sat theo "at of governet, white the local magistrates are either ten feeble to itrter ere or else bribed to n luk at suc~h itifa Smous acts!.

But, let us reverse the case. Suppose a parcel of Mexican outlaws and renegads were to lie in wait upon our frontiers, either in Missouri or Arkansas. murdering our citizens and rifling our caravans; and suppose ihey at length were to be en ; what would be their fate ? A co sad the nearest tree, where they would swing in the wind till the tarkey b-zzards had eaten them, and their bones rotted, and there an end. It is useless to conceal ibe fact that the Mexinans have behaved quite as well in this business as any other nation under heaven would have done: and it is time to cease this wholesome pillage and plun der of a neighboring people, merely be cause their government is too. weak to protect them. A settled and deep-rooted determination oxists amongst the desper ate and hardened refuse of our pioneer population. who have been made bold and shrewd of danger and pfivaiion. to eon tuer New Mexico, and lake formal poses sion; which one thousand resolute and well arioed Americans, under a compenet leader, could easily do at any time. Thild project Is tint dutemptetd to be concealed on the webtern and southern frontier ; and we have heard eminent and iolluential nmen, occupying important positions in society, express a readiness to embark in such an enterprise. The busitcss is mur:b more threatening, (because infinitely more plan sible,) than Burr's cnrispiracy-and it only requires a Burr-(and we should think Prerontaine is the man)--to make the scheme entireiv aecessful. We are glad'to learn that a company or United States troops were about to be de spatched from Jellerson Barracks to inter cept these marauding bands, and we sin cerely hope that the government will leave no wtone unturned in rerretinig out and pun:shiig these brigands and murderers. God knows this people have enough al ready ato answer for, in their treatment of the udians. LLet the poor SMexicans live! We copy the following information, re specting the custom knuse robbery in New Orleans. from the New Orleans Tropic of La nod 2d inst. GREAT ROBBERY. No inconsiderable degree o( sensation bas been caused in this city by this dis closure of the fact that our custom-house has been robbed of an immense sulm of money. The particulars of the case, as they have come to our knowledge, are as follows : On the 26th of July last, more than nine months agn, a package containing one hundred and thirty thousand dollars in the United States Treasury -Notes, was sent, by mail, fron the Custom-house to the Treasury Departnent at Washington. The package. it appears, never reached its deitmation, and during the past week an agent from the Treasury Department, chargd with the buisiness or iuvestigation, has arrived in the city. He has been bu siiy engaged in probing the afflair to the bottii, but as yet the result of his labors has not been made knowvu. Enough has transpired, however, to render it quite certain that the moiey did not leave the city. It seems thast the Treasury note-i when received here are marked "eanctlled" across the facc, in order to prevent tcir further circulation, in case of accident. If the notes in the missing package were sto attarked, the marks did not accomplish the Ip-ariuse intended, for the records of the cussum-house, shtow, we are iniformed,that ome of tie identical notes comprising that packngo, have again been received here anal forwarded to Washington. Altogeihar. the business is very myste rious and duitlicult of solutiao. That a pretty extensive scheme of rasclity has beena consumimated, is quite clea:-, butt upan wthum isuspicion shotuld full is another af fair. It is pre~umaed that the secret rests between the custoum-bouse and the post olliec. and that the villainy was perpetra I ed by sumo person or persons familiar with the mtode of conducting busin-ess in both of those establishments. Sonme ligbt will be shed on the arair, it may be ants cipated, in the course of the next hew days. IA robbery of such magnitude cannot have been conmicd without leavi'g' s'ome traces that will lead to detectio3t. T Ht' CUSTOM-HOUSE ROI3BE RY. We hear that a ece to the stupendous piece of villuiny that has caused so much excitement in this city, during the last few days, has been discovered, and that a stong, probabiility exists that the perpetra tur of the robbery will he disec'ver'ed and arrested. In this state of affairs, it is no more than fair that the public should with l'oldits judgemenmt. andi patiently await dcvelnptemenis. The Collector of the port will tmost undoubtedhy exonerate himself n:n.m a1! blits'se.

[Correpondeuce of the Balamere Sun.] WjVanttO-roE, Aay 12, 1843. The whole community was thrown it a-state of excitement yesterday, byv a rmz mor that several of the Clerks of the iTreasury Department had been arrested uoacharg of embezzling the publit - funds. l am gratiiled to inform you. how sever, that, up, to the present time, hat enc solitary individual has been implicated, . Thaut individuaitwho has hitherto enjoyes -the highest confdence and esteem of ever) Sone who knows him, ls charged with hay juig succeeded in a single paso, se rar as a has been discsivared. Th-e preliminarj in,-stigation was cntinnue tay in th, offieu of the Register of the Treasury. by Mlr. District Attorney Feudell,assisted (by request of the Government) by Z. Collins Lee, Esq. U. S. District Attorney, from your city; and Air. Solicitor Penrose, of the Treasury Department, before Justice Goddard. The investigation, so far. has been very laborious, and the testimony voluininous : ill is doubt and intense anx iety. The accused having entered into reco; nizance to appear at the next term of the Crinsilal Court. I deem it improper, at present, to give any onion of the evi-lence or even a detailed account of the circum stances which have been developed. Your readers shall be duly apprised of the pro gress of the eiaminatiou. Subpnes have been issued for other witnesses from Baltimore, and the examination will be contiuned to-morrow. Lakr.-Since the above was in type we learn fmrnt the Globe of yesterday eve ning that the individual implicated is R. P1. Dowden, a clerki in the office of the Register of the Treasury. lie is sonie where from the vest. Tile evidonce is stated to be that. a week or two ago,Dow den assisted James G. Berret in counting the treasury notes.which hail boen return ed to the treasury by the collection of the revenue, or by u.her persons. for redemp tion. Several days afterwards, Dowden engaged a negro man of Washington C.iy, named Robinson, to go to Baltimore and take a letter to a Airs. Doraey, residing in this city. containing five 5100 treasury notes. The negro brought the letter to a Mrs. Dorsey on last Wednesday week,the 3d inst. It was signed Benjamin Cam belle, Jr., Mrs. Dorsey detained the negro nian about ak hour, until she went out,and tried to pass off the notes. Finding that the could not pass them, she returned them to Dowden, ali6s Benjamin Can.belle, Jr. W hen the negro (Robinson) returned to W ashington. Douwden gave to him two ne hundryd dollar treasury note, to pass ff-pro taisiug hint one lialf, or one butt dred dollars, if he sl-ould succeed. The negro made several inel1ectual attempts to sell them. His having treasury notes. excited the sutpicion of some persons, and he was watched.-On Tuesday last, the negro and Dowden met in the Centre of Alarsh market liouse, in Washington, and was observed to take from his pocket a letter, and to waite on it with a pencil.nnd and it to the negro-who took it to Mr. Spice, upon whom he waited. The letter was writtene with a pencil, and signed Benjamin Combelle'P, requesting Mr. Spice to say nothing about the two one bundred dollar treasury notes, which the negro had asked Mr. Spice to exchange. and which had eacited Air. Spice's suspi cimos that there was sometlinrg wrog either that the notes were counterfeit, or that the negro had stalen ihout. These circumstances led to the arrest, and Dow ilen was held to bail in the sum of $i500, fur further cxamination. It is not known that any of the notes were passed olT, nor is it thought that tore than seven one hundred dollar notes were atteuipted to be pased. Mrs. Dorsey went from this city yesterday, and in the afternoon was under exantiuation touching the business. An Interrstir7g I 'cidea.-A few days since wL-i mutiontod the arrival of the packet stip Muitzunma at Liverpool,after a short paiiisige fni this port. At (he same time we publishied a complimentary card to Captain Lowber, Air his exertios iu saviu t!:e crow of a French brig which was fullita in with a sinking co;ndtiion.

Ciprint, the dau;;h:e-r or the late John WikonEsj of this city, who was the oily lady paUself ger ont boaird. After de.scribing the voyage, the writei says: --But the most thrilling eene af .thc passage occurred on Sunday. the 2d o April. at 2 p. to., white the passengbrs were promeunading the deck, and contem. plating the majostic and terriblo heavin; of the ocean, such as nuully succeeds ha vy winds. MN.~ Ciprint, the only lnd~ passenger, descried and announced sail,' apparently four or five nmiles'disian front us, to wvhich all eyes were Immedi ately directed. Dr. Pattiswn )ocosely ob served 'Suppose that it should be a wreck and that wre should take oif five or si: pereons in distress 1' to which one answer ed, -Very little probability of that.' WVhei our second nwate, taking the glass, said, is his lionesi'but blunt and gruff voice, 'dis t'asted.' On bearing that word, the'cap tan, as quick as thought, took the glasi and after a'long- and earnest gase, with quick movemnt to the Girst ttnate, gay orders to bear down toward her with al sail, and saying 'Signal of distress,' word that to a voice on the sea produces a feat ful thrill of feeling he will never forgel --What ever she wants she shall have, I've cot it.' '-Theit commenced a scene of nettfit aisjong the. crew, of watchfullness by 't loifeers, the anxiety among ihe passet gers thatecould scarcely be surpassod. i the vessel was neared, and her sitnatie became visible to the naked- eye she WI eetn a diamasted, shattered, and watt loged French (Newfoudldlamnd fihIini brig, tumtbling and rolling from sides t side, with every swoll of the sea sweept her decks entirely across. A smiilli ma tie~i to a tamnporary (jury) mast was- a ,t,.t kent th.n venal mnnasgeahM. and her deck, clinging to her torn and splinter-f ed side. were some ten or fifteen persons gesticulating violently for help. and ring ing in our ears through the guss of the raliog wind, 'secours,' (help.) On nearing her, as the hulk ose from the trough of the sea to the crest of the swell, the name of St. Bernard de Fechaaep' was read on the stern, and it was evident she was in a sinking state. -With a pronptness.skill, and humanity above all praise, our ship was hove to, our quarter boats lowered to those rolling hil lows. and in them lenped ilt gallant annie (Moore) and some of our crew to pull for the brig, now nearly alongside of us: but at a moment when one wave throw this little boat some 0 or 100 feet in one di rection. a tremendutis heave of the ocean brought the brig alongside, and within twenty feet of the Montezuma on her star hoard'quarter. The violence of the sea heaving both vessels a terrific distance up and down made us fear dn awful cinsh. perhaps fatil to both. The next swell came. and crasb came the two together. Our starboard stern being raised up in the air, came with treinenlous force down upon the larboard quarter of the brig, crushing her bulwark and parl of her deck, and shoving her off some 30 or 40 fee, when. by dexterous use of our helm and sails, we kept clear of her. 'Moore. our ite', in this frenzied moment of peril had boarded her. and was seen at her helm. Thenceforth she was keptclear of us, and our two boats weu dancing and rolling between us some 4 or 5 times each, till these poor sailors, iG in number anti most of their valuables, were brought on board our slip. The captain, the last one to quit his sinking vessel, half starved, op pressed with grief and care, looked the stolid image of mute despair: "None of them could understand or speak a word of English; but luckily Moore and Mr. Ciprint spoke the French. through whom we learnt that the brig had been disanated and shattered, as we then saw her scvena days previois,. a. all by oae single sea, since which they had been rumblinig as we saw them, having been passed by five vessels. to one only ofwhich C could they raise the signal of distrcms, but the violduce of the storm prevented them havint any succor. A most remarkable providential circumstance occurred to heighten on our minds this scene, and not on!y had our ship for the 24 hours previ ously run exactly in the ditection of this brig, the uuusual distance of 280 knots. but at the moment of our hearing her the intense violence of the wind ceased, caus ing a comparative calm, and during the taking off ihe wrecked, an entire calm,the first and onaly one during the passage. after which the breeze sprung up and away we flew again at the rate of 11 or 12 knots ; next day, after the rescue, up rose the storm about the same lour, the wind cov ering the sea with a white foam. in which the French commander said his hull would not have survived 10 minutes, and attributing the safety of their lives to Cap tain Loo ber, who treated them throughout with the moat liberal and general hospi tality. -NoL the least happy of the rescued seemeil a noble dog, n% tho seized and savcd a boy as he was being swept exhausted frot the deck, which he 4iflered to Cap tain Lowber, vho declined taking from it his favorite aninal.
