The strike of the boatmen is not as yet
ended, though the state of affairs if somewhat
changed. On Friday and Saturday,
a set of reckless desperadoes had pretty
much the control of the canal, ami conducted
themselves as they saw proper,
the more prudent nnd reasonable portion
o! tuo boatmen being unable to restrain
them.
The passage in the canal was so blocked
up that it was with some difficulty
any boat could be got through. Sometimes
black mail would be levied on the
captains, upon the payment of which they
wore allowed to pass. One poor fellow
on Friday evening, after paying n tax of
$2 for passing, was so severely stoned
that he had to bo earned into a neighboring
hotel and have his wounds drnssnd
The ringleader of this affair was arrested.
On Saturday night a quarrel took place
between two of the boatmen, Andrew
Shulcr and Atnbruster, which ended
in a fight. The former was stabbed
in tho abdomen so badly, that he died in
n very short time nfter, and his body
found next morning on the banks of tho
Lehigh/ A coroner's inquest was held
\tpon it. Ambruster received a wound
in his back, with nkrriO T-Tn ia
...
ly recovering, however, and has been removed
to tho jail.
This morning, early, the sheriff stifiV
tnoned a posscc of about 100 citizens, and
called out the two military companies of
the city brought to protect them. They
marched to the 'field of battle,' but did
not meet with the least resistance. Tho
posse clcared the passnge, so as to allow
any boat that wished to an r?lAi*ftr /vf
? ? o~ I'
room, the boatmen even assisting to1 move
about the boats, Captain Horn's company
then accompanied the sheriff up the
Lehigh canal, a distance of nine miles to
Freemansburg, in order to "clear the
gangway."
All the private boats were allowed to
"go on their way"?the Buck Mountain,
Beaver Meadow, Ilazleton, and a few of
the Lehigh Company boats, also went,
?uu Mil* eronioK mc numocr is much diminished.
Nearly nil the Lehigh Company
boata, however, remain, their captains
being still determined not to start
at the present rates.
The sheriff to-day arrested some seven
or eight of the principal rioters, who were |
engaged in stoning him and his posse last
week, stopping private' boats, <vc. Our
jail is quite full, and as it is a miserable
old building, the prisoners are hv nr?
means kept Very safe.[Correspondence

Washington, June 5, 1840.
Though a immber of the higher diplomatic
and consular appointments have
teen made, yet there arc left a few more
of the same s6rt. Thi; cabinet have not
determined, as yet, on the mission to Mpy- i
ico. Russia is also still in the market,
provided that Gov. Graham should , take

that the cabinet will hold back some fe>v
<;f the first cfass missions till after the
meeting of Congress.
I notice that there i a number of

China.?The insane receive but little w
attention in Chinn, and there arc few tl
there. There is scarcely any mention I to
mado of mental derangement in the books
of the Chinese physicians. ol

century, contains between four nml fiv?
hundred patients, its physician is also , ti

hospital-sisters, whose authority never n
transcend his own authority. G
Peru.?At the hospital of St. Andrew, n
Lima, the number of insane patients is A
considerable. On the 30th November
every year, &t. Andrew's days, this bos- c
pital is open to the public; One of the
favorite amusements of the population at: F
Lima is to see these patients. It is a sad I v
thing, that the unfortunate and afllicted j
