Whether the ‘entire system of protective policy was to be overturned, as had been recommended by the Executive’? That inquiry was coming up from all parts of the country, and be thought it the duty of that Youse w reply to these inquiries, and to let the ¢ know at once whether the policy of protecting American industry was to be subverted or established. Surely it was their obvious duty to come up to the fairly and openly, and at once to give a distinct expression of their views. ~ \ bad been intimated by a gentleman. from Alabama, over the way. (Mr. Payne.) ‘that the report from the Secretary of the Treasury Was a most extraordinary docu- ment. Extraordinary it certainly. was, and many new and very extraordinary | doctrines did it contain. MrowS. conecur- red very heartily with the gentleman in thus much of what he had said. The re- was a docoment setting forth doc- frines in political economy such as never ore had been promulgated by any au- | orized officer of Government, and the positions there assumed were such as bad Gariled the country. It was therefore manifestly proper and highly obligatory a this body that it should give as prompt @ expression as possible of its views and | intention in the premises. Mr. S. propos- ed to draw forth to view, and to public ex- amination, in as brief! a manner as he guld, some of these opinions. ¢ The first doctrine which he shauld no- Yice, and which Was tnost distine: ly avow- ed in the Secretary's report,“was that the Protective policy was unconssiutional, and so. there mus: be an end of it. The Se- qretary said expressly that the tariil of) 142 was “too unequal aud unjus:, too orbitant and oppressive, and i#o clearly iaconflict with the fundamental princi- ples of the Constitution.” », These were his express words, that the tariff of 1842 was clearly in contlict with the fundamental principles of the Consti- tution; and he had me an arguinent to Prove this. He quoted the Constitution. gad then argued, by way of inference, that Mhe power to lay aduty for protection was Ftotinthis Government. His report says: “A partial and a total prohibition are alike | i violation of the true object of the taxing pow- @. They only differ in degree and not in prin. | Riple. If the revenue limit may be exceeded | @e per cent. it may be exceeded one hundred. | Mitmay be exceeded upon any one article, it may be exceeded on all; and there is no es- cape from this conclusion but in contending that gress may lay duties on all articles so high. | M% to collect no revenue, and uperate as a total Prohibition. “The Constitution declares that ‘all bills for Rising revenue shall originate in the House of | Mepresentatives.’ A tariff bill, it is conceded, fan only originate in the House, because it is 8 bil for raising revenuc. ‘Tnat is the only Peper object of such a bill. ®*hy andcollecttaxes.’ It isa bill for raising Prenve | and whenever it departs from that ob- #6, in whole or in part, either by total or partial Power,” Thus he held explicitly that aduty which gm standard was unconstitutional, and if Congress might add but one per to the amount of duty necessary for Rrenue, it might add a hundred per cent.; Mid that if it might impose such duty on Me article, it might with equal right im- ae upon all other articles whatever. whole proceeding, Whether ina small- ora greater degree, the Secretary main- ned to be directly against the Constitu- and an act which transcended the Power of Congressto perform.

This source of national independefce and wealth I anxiously recommend to the prompt and constant guardianship of Congress.’ —Madison’s Special Message, February 15, 1815. In Mr. Madison’s seventh message he still more strongly recommends this policy. Mr. S. did not like to take up the time of the committee by reading from these documents to any extent: but gentlemen would hardly maintain that James Madi- son did not understand the Constitution _at least as well as Robert Walker. He might himself be called the father of the Constitution, and yet he publicly and offi- cially recommended on four different oc- casions that very policy which the present Secretary of the Treasury pronounced to be in open conflict with the Constitution. [An Executive message was here re- | ceived from the President, through the hands of Mr. Walker, his private Secre- tary.) President Monroe, who had over and over again, in the strongest and most emphatic - language, urged upon Congress the pro- priety of protecting domestic manufac- tures. He then came to the messages of Gen. Jackson—a name which. he should suppose, would still have some small mea- sure of authority, at least with those who once professed themselves pre-eminently his friends. Mr. S. would place in dis- tinct and open contradiction the opinions , held by the present Executive and his Se- cretary of the Treasury, as contained in. that he had distinetly. recommended the message of the one. and the report of Henson of such a policy a#among the | the other, and the opinions of Andrew | as contained in his Executive | to Congress.

He would now proceed to read | & paragraph from the message of Presi- dent Jackson, by way of refreshing gen- tlemen’s recollection as to what had been ‘the opinions on this subject avowed by that distinguished man. Mr. S. consider- ed the passage he was about to quote as | containing one of the clearest and strong- | est vindications of the constitutional pow- | | | } er to lay duties, for the purpose of protec- tion, that had ever been put forth to the world. Here it is: “The power to impose duties upon imports originally belonged to the several States. The tight to adjust these duties, with a view to the encouragement of domestic branches of indus- try, is So completely identical with that power that it is difficult to suppose the existence of dhe one without the other. ‘The States have dele- gated their whole authority over imports to the General Government, without limitation or re- striction, saving the very inconsiderable reser- | vation relating to the inspection laws. ‘This au- thority having thus entirely passed from the | | States, the right to exercise it for the purpose of | protection does not exist in them; and, conse- -quently, if it be not possessed by the General Government, it mast be extinct. Our political system would thus present the anomaly of a peo- | ple stripped of the right to foster their own in- dustry, and to counteract the most selfish and | destructive policy which might be adopted by foreign nations. ‘This surely cannot be the case: this indispensable power, thus surrender. ed by the States, must be within the scope of au- | thority on the subject expressly delegated to | Congvess. In this conclusion Lam = coufirmed, pas well by the opinions of Presidents Washing- i ton, Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe, who have leach repeatedly recommended this right under the Coastitution, as by the uniform practice of _ Congress, the continsed acquiescence of the | States, and the general understanding of the | | people.” —Juckyon's second annual Message. Yet now Congress was to Jearn for the first time by Executive instruction that they possessed no constitutional power to | protect our own home industry—no power /to countervail the injurious regulations of | “other countries—no power to protect the Inbor of our own citizens from the de- | -struction which must be brought upon it | by an unrestricted competition with the pauper labor of Earope; but our own hardy sons of toil must be impoverished and ground down so long as the wretched hegyars under a foreign Government were compelled by their necessities to labor at ‘lower rates than freeborn Americans.— | | Such was the doctrines distinctly promul- , gated by the President in the Message, band especially by his Secretary of the Treasury. Well might they be called ex- i traordinary, for such they certainly were. Were the American people prepared to sustain opinions like these? Would they | subscribe to the dogma that their own Go- | vernment had no power to protect them? | That was the doctrine—there was no e- _vading it; and Mr. S. desired to know _ whether this committee were prepared to | give it the impress of their sanction ? This, however, was but one of the ex- dinary production. It contained others equally strange, equally new, equally per- | , nicious in tendency, equally destructive in practical operation. believe it? This document from the Se- -cretary recommended the imposition of an -excise on American manatactures—-to take the duties off British goods, and put -on the American. Mr. JOHNSON. of Tennessee, here a- 'gain interposed, and, as the gentleman | was speaking a great deal about the pro- tection of our home industry and domes- tic manufactures. Mr. J. desired to ask him another quéstion. When the Gov- ernment protected these manufactures, who paid? And if all were protected a- like, what benefit was there in the protec- tion ? Mr. STEWART resumed. The gentle- man asked him who paid ? man and his friends held the doctrine that the consumer always paid the duty, and the Secretary told the nation that the poor man was taxed eighty-two per cent. on cotton goods overthe rich man. Yes, this poor man seemed a special favorite of the honorable Secretary. He had introducd him ten times in the course of two para- graphs of the report. His sympathy was greatly excited that this unhappy * poor man” was taxed one hundred and fifty per cent. on his cotton shirt, because there was a specific duty on imported cotton goods of nine cents a yard. Now, if this specitic duty of nine cents amounted toa handred and filty per cent. ad valorem, that fixed the price of the cotton to the | “poor man” at but six cents a yard, for | nine cents was just.a hundred and filty | per cent. on six cents. So the practical, effect of the horrid fax was. that this “poor | man” got « good shirt at sixpence.a.yacd. | And Mr. S..would tell the get tHleman.an- other thing: - When those moest.abomii traordinary doctrines in this most extraor- | Would the people | The gentle- | | people paid in alla tax of ¢ , purest patriots men that had-egerag tive halls, and s nstai Calhoun, searcely less 4 shed—In. dia cotton yoods, of the very coarsest qual- ity, known to every lady atthe time by the name of hum-hums. cost thirty-three cents a yard; so that the “poor man” would then have had to pay four dollars for twelve yards of it, and the effect of the infamous minimums had been that every poor man in the country could now get a better article for six and a quarter cents. That was the way the people were taxed and oppressed hy the protective system ; and this was the manner in which the “poor man” was ground down to the dust to benefit his rich monopolist! ‘The Sec- retary persuaded this poor man that he was taxed eighty-two per cent. more than | the rich man, this was quite insufferable, | yet he paid only six cents for what for- 'merly cost him thirty-six cents, and of an inferior quality at that. ad valorem.

No more com- plaint; these friends of the * poor man” are perfectly satisticd, these odious minimums which had reduc- jsix andeighicents. Yet this was the svs- tem which must be given up; this was the operation which was so oppressive and ed te exist no longer upon our statute book ! manufactures; such was the doctrine of this report. Mr. JOHNSON, of Tennessee, here a- gain asked Mr. Stewart, if the taritf bro't was it that brought down the price of oth- er goods in the same proportion? Mr. STEWART replied that such was not the fact. O.her goods-not manufac- or agricultural produce ; .because the pro- tective tariff had increased the supply of al produce by creating an increased de- mand for both. If the gentleman could ulate price, it would all be plain. When interrupted, he had been contro-. verting the doctrines put forth by the Se- cretary in his report. He had referred to a table which had been reported to the | House last session by the Committee of | Ways and Means, for the purpose of show- | ing the enormous tax which was imposed | by the system of minimums ; but when the ' Secretary, by the assistance of the honor- _able chairman of the Committee of Ways. and Means, was preparing with great la- bor and pains this document, he seemed to forget that he was atthe same moment | furnishing mathematical proof of the ex- -act extent to which protection had reduc- ‘ed prices. By converting specific into ad valorem duties, the duty runs up precise- ly as the price runs down; so. by showing an increased rate of duty, the gentlemen have only shawn reduced prices. The duty is fixed, and cannot vary.— ‘The ad volurem duties are always the same. None were imposed by the tariff of 1842 above 50 per cent. How, then. does the President, in his message, get du- ‘ties of 200 per cent.? This can only be done by converting the speczfic duties into | ad valorem duties ; and, when this is done, ‘a high duty only shows a low price. If) ‘the duty is 209 per cent., the price must be one-fourth only of the duty. Thus we are told that glass pays the enormous du- ty of 200 per cent.; and why?) Because | the duty is $4 per box, and the price $2 per box ;. but if the glass went down to | $1 per box, the duty would be 400 per cent. Thus we are told by the Secretary | of the Committee of Wa Treasury and the’ chairman of the | ys and Means that the ighty-four én went | ? | et illions. of which bat tw h | to the Government, and ifty-sev' n to the ; or seventy articles on sxmich the duty | ‘ ae g % 2 © A | On that thirty- | six cents protection laid a duty of nine) cents, which was but twenty-five per cent. | practical consequences, given the farmers | a market, given their children employ-_ dustry, and had brought down the price of , the poor man’s clothing from thirty-six cts. , a yard, down—down—down, as the sys- | cried ont that the duty on these cottons | Was a hundred and filty per cent. ad va- | be one hundred and fifty per cent. ; and if the price descended to one cent a yard, | The poor man robbed, plundered, | and oppressed by a duty of nine hundred per cent., simply because he gets a yard the manufactarer run up the price to thir | Such was. the practical operation of ed the poor man’s cotton goods from | Iwenty-five and thirty cents per vard to) so unconstitutional that it must be suffer. | The duty was to be taken off the | foreign goods, and put upon American down the prices of articles taxed, what. tured here, silks, velvets, &c., had not de- | . 5 . { clined in the same ratio, nor had wages | comprehend that demand and supply reg- bona fide purpose of colleeting money for the # Very well; and Whapds F . simply that the prices ‘OF PH08® arti- Féles had been greatly diminished, as in the case of cottons. The same duty which. when levied, had been but 25 per cent., had now become 150 per cent.. simply be- cause the price had gone down to one- fourth part of what it was. So the main result of all the laborand ciphering of the | chairman of the Committee of Ways and | Means had been to furnish to the whole country official demonstration that prices had been reduced by a protective tariff to | one-fourth or one-fifth of what they had | been in 1816. Take a plain illustration: | the tariff imposed a duty of four cents per ‘pound on nails; the price of nails in 1816 | had been 16 cents per pound ; so that the | duty was then 25 per cent. on the price: | but the same duty, we are told in this re- port, is 100 per cent.; and how so? Be- cause the price had fallen from sixteen cents to four cents per pound. » Ve pressive on the “ poor man,” whe now tu pay 100 per cent. on ng planation of all this was pé ‘and easy.

Mr. S. thanked the chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means for his document; it had furnished to him and to the country undeniable proof. from the highest authority, to what an extent pri- ces hand been reduced, insomuch that the duty ou one article, though reasonable at first, had now risen to three hundred and eighty-nine per cent. ad valorem, brought about solely by the reduction of the price. Mr. 8. defied escape from this position.— Let any gentlemen. take the report and examine it, and the more they examined, the more~they would be convinced that this was a true explanation of the whole matter. Yet this was held forth for the purpose of exciting alarm; it furnished a topic for popular declamation; it might persuade the “poor man” that he was greatly oppressed, because he paid a tax Cec < of two hundred) per cent. on his window. | glass; and he perhaps would not under- | stand that if glass fell to a dollar a box, he would be taxed four hundred per cent., or if by any improvement in the manulac- at fifty cents a box, why then he would be paying the enormous unheard of tax of eight hundred per cent. Tiris same “poor man” of the Secretary sometimes wanted to buy a few nails, and the Secretary a- were taxed a hundred per cent. on their value. So they were; but what did he pay for them? He used to pay sixteen cents a pound, but this wicked oppressive ‘tariff had brought them down to four cts. | Now, who did not see that if a specific duty of four cents a pound on nails amoun- ted now to a hundred per cent., should | nails be brought down to a cent a pound, the duty would be four hundred per cent. What an oppression to get nails at a pen- ny a pound! Surely the “ poor man, was likely to be utterly crushed and ruined. Mr. S. said he had wished to point out some other of the extraordinary doctrines | _ contained in this paper of the Secretary, | domestic goods by increasing competition, | and had sustained wages and agricultur- | and there was one which would startle the country; it was covered up in cau- tious language, but when this veil. was drawn aside, and the truth exposed, he again warned gentlemen that it would startle the country. This free-trade Se- cretary had recommended an excise on | American manulactures. Yes, that was the protection he had provided for Ameri- can industry; it was to take off the duty from foreign manufactures, and put it on -ourown. lear him: | Tn accordance with these principles, it is _ believed that the Jargest practicable portion of the aggregate revenue should be raised by max- imum revenue duties upon Juxuries, whetber | grown, produced, or manufactured at home or abroad.” _ Let mechanics and manufacturers hear that. Every American artisan should /hear it. The duty was to be on articles. &@, whether grown, produced, or manu- factured at home or abroad.” Here was | an American Secretary distinctly recom- mending to levy the high rate of revenue duiies on goods manufactured at home.— What was this but an excise ? What else Was an excise than a tax on the manu- factured goods of this country? Yet this was the Secretary’s recommendation.— How would American manufactures like it? Both in the message and in the report the Administration had given its own de- finition of what, according to its undef- standing, was a revenue standard of du ¥3 and this was the language of the Presi- dent’s message : “The precise point in the ascending scale of duties at which it is ascertained from expe. rience that the revenue is greatest, is the max- imum rate of duty which can be Jaid for the support of Government. ‘Tu raise the duties higher than that point,-and, thereby diminish the amount colleeted, is to lévy them for pro- tection merely, and not for revenue.

It is melancholy to perceive | how potent for mischief every idle bab- | bler is, who, under the guise of a lofty | patriotism, would now, so far as he is a- , ble, plunge two of the greatest nations on the globe, into an abyss of calamity and misery which no human sagacity can {fa- om. When in his inaugural (inauspicious) address, Mr. Polk shadowed forth his de- | | to be arbitrated at the mouth of the can- /non, he struck a chord which vibrated in |the heart of every Briton,’and made him }exclaim: ‘We, too. have rights which | must be respected.’ - The sagacious Brit- ish Statesmen, who then described acloud | in the west, have been no idle observers | of passing events; they have since the 4th | March last, been closely occupied in mea- ! suring Mr. Potk’s mental proportions with customers, and it is to be feared they have come to the conclusion that he is not quite 'as great a man as Napoleon Bonaparte. his long-eared associate, whether be had | not acted bravely in driving other animals | out of the cave ; yea, indeed, said the for- mer, you brayed so lustily, I should, my- self, have been afraid, had I not known | you were an Ass. And so it will be with the conqueror of Napoleon, when he hears the braying of James Knox Polk. Has Mr. Polk ever calculated the cost of the war he is now recommending to this na- tion !—For, disguise it as he may, war must be his aim, Nnless indeed he is fool- ish enough to think his swagger can ter- rify Great Britain into the unconditional surrender of a territory, which she has hitherto refused even-to divide, except on the terms granted by the fox to the lion. At requires more than a glance at this ex- traordinary production, to. see the damn- e- | ing depth of fatuity that could have dic- ry: | eated such a medley of nonsense and wick- a e A cursory reader may, for a mo- ment, be misled by-the show of patriotism pand-boldness it displays; but, if he will analyze it more closely, he will find its } Patriotism demagogueism, and its bold- phess unmannerly insolence.

May the balance, compared with the melan- choly fact that a mercenary press and a reckless faction are prepared to lure the unwary, unsuspicious and well meaning multitude into an unfathomable gulf of ruin aud devastation. Good God! can the human mind contemplate, without a thrill of horror, a war, in which England and France may be arrayed on one side, and the United States on the other? In a just cause, We may set them at defiance, be- cause, in a just cause. we may throw our- selves upon ‘God and our country,—but is this a just cause? Is it not rather a wanton surrender of vantage ground, which in the natural progress of events would become impregnable? What ne- cessity for disturbing the present arrange- ment ? Cannot any man of common sense see, that, where there is an emigration of a hundred to one in our favor, and a dis- tance of a few hundred miles on terra fir- ma, against many thousands over twoim- mense and boisterous oceans, Oregon must fall into the arms of the United States within ten years with as 1auch certainty as any event yet in the womb of time ?— The President, had he possessed ordinary sagacity, would have seen, that on our side at least, there was no need of haste ; on the contrary, his true policy was to tem- porize ; say to Congress, that England seemed as yet indisposed towards what he considered an equitable arrangement ;— but that he hoped she would, in time, take a more correct view of the rightful claim of the United States. In the meantime, he would recommend to Congress to afford such comfort and protection to the citi- zens of the United States as Great Britain had to her subjects. He might, moreover, have recommended, as he has recommen- ded, the erection of blockhouses, for the security of emigrants, and the establish- ment of a mail route, and with these fos- tering attentions, which neither could, nor would have given offence, he might safe- ly have lett Oregon to the operations of time. These common sense views, however, were not bellicose enough for the hot blooded warrior; and as Gen. Jackson had brow-beaten France, this new follow- er in his footsteps, must needs brow-beat France and England. When this message reaches England what thinks Mr. Polk. will be the action of the British ministry, and of a personage with whom this mes- sage will make the master of even the conqueror of Napoleon. Hurra! for Ire- land and Daniel-O’Connell. The moment for snapping asunder the bonds of Ireland, has at length arrived. Heaven knows how ardently we have wished for it! But dear as it is to the hearts of Irishmen in America, to see the certainty of redress to their beloved country, they do not wish it effected at such a cost to the country of their choice and adoption, and the terrible almost civil war that now threatens to bring them into conflict with their coun- trymen and kindred. England dares not go to war with the United States with Ireland dissatisfied, and she knows it. O'Connell will taunt her with the arrogant pretensions of the slave-breeders, as he pleases to term us, and he will say to Peel and Wellington: ‘Do justice to Ireland, or let President Polk spit in your faces.’ That great poli- tical leader has for years been trying to exasperate those t wo great nations against each other; not because he dislikes this country, nor its citizens, but because he has looked forward to such a quarrel as has now arisen, to hurl defiance at. Eng- land, and enable him to write the epitaph of Emmet. Evil, indeed, is the wind that blows good to noone. The western breeze is now wafting across the broad Atlantic, glad tiding to the Emerald Isle. England has no alternative, but to brook insult and defiance from a rival, or conciliatea long injured portion of her own realm. Can it be doubted which she will adopt? Sixty days will not have elapsed ere news shall reach us that Parliament is engaged on measures for the improvement and ame- lioration of the condition of Ireland. Si- multaneously, we shall hear of active op- erations in the Navy Yards of Great Brit- aip, ofthe fall of stocks, of disturbances and dismay in the manufacturing districts. When we hear these tidings, and moreo- ver, when we hear murmurs and com- ri S j $ roe is } . 7 =e 3 - ros reached a period when! ne ational r AaDGOor f] ¥ ae . rmly maintained. That-they-eannot e tional honor aad interest, is too, clear to admit of doubt. We say, when the Con- gress are prepared tosustain, without mod- ification, thzse sentiments of the represen- tative of the mggion, it will be time to look around and devise ways and means to et- gage in an offensive and defensive war. Now to begin: What will it cost to place us on. terms approaching equalit with Great Britain? Say, to start wit one hundred millions—cbarges of army and navy. and support of Government,and ten thousand incidental expenses, 150 mil- lions, at the close of the first year. Now, suppose the war to last 3 years. we will have, at the rate mentioned, incurred an ex- pense of 550 millions. This is far beneath a just estimate. It may be taken for gran- ted, that current expenses, added to claims of States, individuals, and neutral powers, on behalf of their subjects whose proper- ty may have been confiscated, willamount in three years, to seven hundred millions. Suppose, however, (no violent supposition) that the war last five years, we may esti- mate the cost at a thousand millions.— Now suppose that, by extraordinary tax- es during the war, raise 50 millions an- nually; at its close, we shall be miaus 750 millions. The interest on this amount, would be, at the most favorable rate, 45 millions; add for expenses of Government 30 millions, and a sinking fund of ten mil- lions, and we would have to raise a reve- nue the first year, of 85 millions, Thisis Mr. Polk’s plan for reducing the Tariff! Well, Mr. Calhoun, what think you of this friend of the South, now? Will you con- sent to this game? But this is not all.— Does any man in his senses think the the- atre of war will be Oregon? No; the theatre of war will be our unprotected sea coast, and especially the Southern portion of our country. We shall be attacked in the cutting up of our commerce, the pil- lage of our towns, the abduction of our slaves. the desolation and desecration of our homes. The culture of cotton and rice and sugar will be interrupted—the ten thousand channels of industry now flowing will become dry, the country will present the appearance of one vast camp —dissipation. drunkenness, gaming, pros- titution, blasphemy, irreligion will per- vade the land; these and a thousand evils which no catalogue can embrace, will be the concomitants and sequealue of theKor- rible national leprosy which now threat- ens this country. Men of the south, are you prepared for this? Will you consent to trust yourselves to the tender mercies of abolitionism? Ah! if you do, mark | now the prophecy. the institution of Sla- very will have received its death blow, and you will then indeed be, and you will deserve to be “ hewers of wocd and draw- ers of water” for the North. Arouse, then, Whigs and Democrats of the South, from your lethargy, and rebuke the monstrous tolly or wickedness that would wantonly plunge you into inevitable ruin. And yet this vain man says the United States will not be responsible for any thing that may result. Responsible ! whothen is responsi- ble? perhaps ue will “take the responsi- bility ?” Is England responsible in the eyes of God, or man? Has she threatened? If she has, when, how and where? She claims north of the 49th parallel of fati- tude; the U. States claim south of 49 de- grees—180 miles of an inhospitable sea- coast form the real subject of quarrel be- tween two great nations, and this territo- ry that may benefit, or quite as probably, injure our great grand-children, is to be purchased with rivers of blood, thousands ot millions of treasure, and the cries and wailings of parents, orphans and widows. National honor, forsooth! Who calls in question our honor? Who has said that we were intriguers? Who has advised to give us notice peaceably to gather up our goods and chattels and clear ourselves, or we shall be kicked out of company? Eng- land is too wise to be guilty of such rude and insolent absurdity. ‘No. no, President Polk and his advisers are alone responsi- ble for all the consequences that may fol- low from his wanton attack upon the pride and honor of a great and glorious nation ; and this fearful responsibility will, when party feelings are sobered down by actual suffering, crush him and them to the earth. They now make it a theme of exultation and glorification that this great message will create a‘ sensation.’ Why, a madman may, any day, create asensation. Is that amerit? Achild,or an idiot may apply a spark-that may en- kindle a conflagration which. it- will take men and engines to extinguish, and that child or idiot will cause a sensation. pectora eaca | O vanity, folly, madness !

Shortly after his arrival he announced himself as Elisha D. R a teacher of Geography, professing to ve able to give a thorough knowledge of it in ten days ! He proposed giving a lecture accompanied with samples of the exer- cises by which such wonderful progress is effected in this branch of learning. Accordingly, the Courthouse bell was rung at early candle light, and a crowd promptly met, all in anxious expectation. Elisha (who is by the bye a verdant youth from the brushy mountains) came in and took his seat in the bar with considerable pomp, opened his atlas very gracefully, snuffed the candle, clear- ed his throat, threw himself back with an air, and com- menced singing Geography ! and this was his new in- vention by which to accomplish such wonders. He sung on for some time, to the amusement of all present, who, nevertheless, intimated their entire satisfaction with his | performances. After a time he proposed teaching a class | if a sufficient number could be obtained. There was a ' handsome response to this proposition, and the school was to commence in a few days. The flattering prospect before him so much elated him that he resumed his exercises with great additional con- fidence and vigour. After singing over several lessons | to the tune of old hundred the performance was about to close, when a low and ominous whistle was heard ; then the twanging of a Jews’-harp. This had scarcely ceased when the attention of the crowd was arrested by the ringing of bells above them, when suddenly they were heard rushing down stairs. At this anxious mo- ment the lights were mysteriously extinguished and pitchy darkness reigned. The Gyascutns'! the Gyascutus is loose !!! burst from the lips of the crowd. In an instan: that indescribable animal was in their midst. It is im- possible to depict the scene that ensued. The cries, groans, and screams that filled the house ; the tumbling and scampering, above all which the terrific growls of the monster was most distinct and frightful. Surprise, at first, seemed to have paralized the limbs of Elisha ; but as the animal neared him, he eprang to his feet yelling most piteously “lord save me !” He gained the door, from which he shot like an arrow—the dreadful beast in pursuit.—He gained his horse, and springing into the saddle, made his exit.

He isa native of Tennessee, one of the western States of the union. It is on the west that he founds the hope of his re-election, and the west demands the entire of the Oregon territory. [tis therefore with much reason that some of the American journals tel] their coun. trymen that the Oregon question, which, to be understood, requires an attentive study of old treaties and diplomatic documents, it is solved at once in every village of the west by political demagogues, who have read nothing, and who only know_one thing—that they are sure to please the multitude and obtain their suffrages, by telling them that God has given them the new Continent from one extremity to the other, for their exclusive use. However this may be, there is every reason to fear that the message of this day w ings of the democracy of the western States. — Private letters from America, to the 10th trary. The annexation of Texas caused the first election of Mr. Polk, and to secure the se- | cond, he wishes to ot arallel of 49° north lati- tude, but without the tree navigation of the Co. lumbia river, this offer being, in fact, less fa. vorable to Great Britain than several of those which had been previously made and rejected by that Power. It, however, embraced a pro. position to make free to Great Britain any ports on the Cape of Quadra and Vancouver’s Island In brief, Mr. Polk, actuated by former Administrations, as he says, and anxious to settle the matter, offered the 49th. parallel, without the navigation of the Columbia, and with free ports to Great Britain on Vancouver’s proposition, the only one that has been made by Mr. Polk, was rejected hy Mr. Pakenham, the British Minister, who, without submitting any other scheme, suffered the ne. gotiation on his part to drop ; but expressed a trust that the United States would offer « some plan more consistent with fairness and equity, and with the reasonable expectations of the British Government.” In this we think that Mr. Pakenham made a mistake, for judging from the indications of the popular mind in this country, the tone of the press, and of our public functionaries generally, no better terms than the 49th parallel, &c., will he offered to Great Britain. This, the British Minister should have known, because he has been long enough in this country, to see and to be able to understand the temper of the public mind on this question. This rejection, it would appear closed the “ Tho calculation will be extravagant, but the general opinion at New York, at Philadelphia, and at Washington, is that the president wil] do it. . tiation for the time. “7.

Truly, the official editor deserves the thanks of his party for having opened this discussion. “ The Oregon Question impartially view- ed: War, and its Consequences.” —Under this title the Hon. John M. Botts has ad- dressed to Mr. Pleasants, of the Richmond Whig, and very able analysis of the pres- ent state of the diplomatic argument on the Oregon controversy, as presented by the documents lately placed before Con- gress by the President. If our Columns were less heavily in- cumbered, or if we were more confident as to the use of argument in great public lic matters just now, we should hasten to republish this powerful brief of the whole subject. But, as we have said, the mat- ter is in the hands of Congress: it is for them to give the country war or peace, calamity in many bitter forms, or quiet and honorable prosperity, asthey may see good, and with or without ample, anxious, and candid deliberation, as they like. The responsibility is theirs. Mr. Botts compares, with great skill, the claims and their grounds set forth by the negotiators on either part. This he does with candor, giving a fair weight to the titles on each side. The result of this comparison we will extract in his own striking words: “ Now, I am neither disposed, nor prepared if I were disposed, to decide upon the relative claims of these two parties, as resting on discovery, exploration, and settle- ment; it seems to ine to be a subject involved in much difficulty and confusion. But this J am prepared to say, that of all the qnestions to which I have ever turned my attention, as creating conflicting interests and rights between two nations, this is the one most peculiarly fit and appropriate to be submitted to an arbitration, if the | parties cannot themselves agree ; and that Great Britain | has by her offer to arbitrate done all that it became her to do, and all that could be expected, in order to bring about a peaceable anu ‘onorable adjustment of the diffi- culty ; and that, if war should be the consequence, the responsibility will rest solely and exclusively on the head of Mr. Polk and those of our public men to whom the subject is now turned over, who may sustain him in his id!e and arrogant claim. “ The question, more briefly stated, is simply this: | Great Britain says to the United States, ‘ From 1790 I _ have held the Oregon territory in joint occupancy with Spain and the United States, with my right to make set- | tlements on any portion of the unoccupied territory re- | cognised by Spain as far back as 1790,then the only claimant.

Make: me soine other proposition more equitable than the first.’ ‘Why,’ says Polk now, ‘I will withdraw my first pro- position, and claim the whole entire territory of Oregon ;’ even that which it has been admitted by this Govern- ment to belong to Great Britain ever since the treaty of joint occupancy in 18193; for, if Great Britain had no just claim or title to any part, it is impossible to conceive that the terms of joint occupancy would ever have been agreed upon ; or that Mr. Polk would himself have of- fered any part to Great Britain in the course of this ne- gotiation.* “ Disguise it as you may by flourishes of the pen, ‘to this complexion it must come at last.’ “ Now, I venture to make the unqualified assertion that there is not one intelligent, honest, disinterested, pa- triotic man in this whole country, who, upon a full un- derstanding of this much-vexed but greatly misunder- stood question, would, under existing circumstances, be disposed to pronounce our title ‘clear and unquestiona- ble, and to favor the desperadoes, the political jugglers, the ambitious aspirants, and the greedy office-holders, in their clamors for ‘ the whole of Oregon or none ;’ and in making war for what we can never accomplish by war, and what is not worth a quarrel, even if we could, but which, if the matter had been let alone, would have na- turally fallen into our possession by the settlement of the country by our own citizens ; for, to use the language of Lord Castlereagh, ‘ we were acquiring possession of the country, while our people were asicep, and knew noth- ing about it.” The conclosion of Mr. Botts is, that, from the position which the Executive as- sumes, a warthere must be; but a war which, forfeiting all possibility of its ob- ject. must leave us'spent with losses and weary of inflicting them,1to seek peace, ‘after-all, in’ just» what.we have. alread ‘rejected—tilie arbitration of some friend- ire 1 3 : yet it was the last submitte 1 by Gi a at open to Mr. Polk. “> Y ‘Britain, and oot having becn withdrawn, been always. fire in’ Columbia,-recently.. bd ee z tis eee RS} ““Etie known that the proposition to arbitrate was | StFé ~ (te a 1 morth of January Inst, d rin; ; ae!

The “ Union” says just the same'thing, in substance, when it says “as we are at present advised this report is not correct.” -- oat wat wane Gul sce The “ National Intelligencer ” republishes a statement from the “ New Y. News,’ reported Washington, “tu the effect that a settlement of the Oregon boundary question had been con- cluded in London between the British Goxern- ment and Mr. McLane, on the: basis of the 49th degree—the proposition having come from the former.” As we are at present advised, this report is not correct. Other rumors. are afloat in the papers, touching the same subject, which are equally destitute of foundation. Washington Union. From the New York Sun. The Washington Union is the accredited or- gan of the President of the United States, and its editors are the honored recipients of the dis- tinguished favorg#of the Democratic party in both Houses of Congress. But its position is liable to be misunderstood. No member of the Cabinet, net even the President himself, could overstep the bounds of sound discretion or of- ficial honor to authorize the publication of State secrets in that paper, and the erroneous asser- tions already made by the Union are evidences of the fact, otherwise government officers would be justly chargeable with gross deception.— Hence the very judicious language of the official editor; “as at present advised ”’—authorized to say, or not permitted to say more—“ this re- port is nol correct.” The denial, therefore, a- mounts to nothing ; for the whole question in dispute may have been amicably adjusted, and the official editor may be kept in ignorance of the fact until the documents are sent in to the Senate, where, of course. they will be taken up in secret session. It is generally reported that the British Governmeat has taken up President Polk’s offer, and presented it to our Government through our Minister in London, who has sent jt on to Washington for acceptance. Indeed, there are Jetters here from eminent persons in London which leave no doubt as to the amica- ble adjustment of the whole question. It should be generally understood, therefore, that the position of the official journal excludes it from the privilege enjoyed by non-officials, of publishing all that transpires relative to the course of pending negotiations, appointments, &c. The United States Journal, the Wash- ington Intelligencer, and all other journals are more to be relied upon in this respect than the Union. The latter is the official Journal of the Government, and cannot be expected to com. promise the dignity and good faith of the Ad- ministration by divulging State secrets directly, by open assertion, or indirectly, by correcting the floating rumors of the day. From the New York News. The New York News mentioned the report referred to only as a report, said by a verbal in- formant to have proceeded from good authority, We added the expression of a belief in its pro- bability, from what we knew of the dispositions of the British Government, respecting which we have every reason to feel sure that it is ex- tremely anxious to avoid a war, if it can be done without too much the appearance of a submis- sion to rude and offensive menace, and that it is prepared to offer the 49th degree before com. ing to extremities. (- The New York Correspondent of the Mobile Advertiser, says—‘ Mrs. Joe Smith, the Mormon, writes to the New York Sun from Nauvoo, under date of the 20th ult., complain- ing of Arlington Bennett, who, says she, is “advocating the cause of the Tyrants, who have seized on the government of the Mormon Church.” This church, such as it is, she says, was formed by her lamented husband, who was martyred fur its sake, and whether true or false, has laid down his life fur its belief! She has no intention of going out of the U. States with the Mormons, in whose doctrines, and those of her husband, she avers, she never for a mo- ment believed. She thought him laboring un- der a diseased mind. She means to educate her children in the Christian faith, and in obe- dience to the Jaws of this country. She attri- butes the delusions of the fanatics she is among, to the fact that they have no schools, and lack moral culture. Arlington Bennett says the let. ter is genuine, but I doubt it immensely.” The same correspondent says—‘ A negro, named Hodges, a few weeks since, pretended that he had received a revelation from Heaven, informing him that the world would come to an end on the 30th ult. He obtained a few con- verts both white and black, and some of them determined to watch and pray until the end of time. They accordingly assembled in a wood, and engaged in their fanatical work during a drenching shower of rain. ‘The police magi- strates hearing of the event, repaired to the spot in company with two or three officers, and there found the deluded followers of the color- ed divine—two white men, a woman and her children, in a deplorable condition. ‘They ar- rested Hodges at his house, before he had an opportunity of joining his disciples, and reliev- ed him of his manuscript book of revelations. The whole party have been proceeded against as lunatics.” The last number of the Liverpool Times, received by the Acadia, contains the fol- lowing “ first-rate notice” of President Potk : ** Commerce js always the soother of angry passions—the oj) upon the troubled waters of contending iactions. It is upon this ground that, irrespective of his war propensities, a large party in this country (England) wish well to Mr. Polk. They dislike his pugnacity, but they are partial to the President becquse he is a Free Trader, and is desirous of reducing the Tari from ‘ Protection,’ or probibition, to-revenue.

The Evergreen, the new boat just put upon our river by the Henrietia Steam Boat Company, is unquestionably the desid- eratum, so long desired, and so necessary to the prompt and cheap transportation of goods and produce on our waters. We are told that previous to the late rise of water, she came up from Wilmington on less than two feet of water, having four loaded boats in tow, and that she did not once touch bottom at the worst shoals. With such boats we hope that our boat owners will not only regain all the freight which they have lost lately in consequence of low waters, but that low rates and expe- dition will attract to them business which has heretofore taken other directions. By the way, a gentleman who formerly owned and run a pole boat for eight years on our river, informs us, that during all’ that time he never had ten dollars worth of freight for a merchant in the interior. All that kind of business has resulted from the improvement of the river by the Navi- gation Company, and the consequent navi- gation by Steam Boats. Good Advice.—The Richmond Whig offers the fo’lowing sensible advice to Mexico and Spain: “And now if Gen. Herrera, or (if he is by this time uppermost) Gen. Paredes, will take our respecful advice, it is that they should sell California—sell at once— sell at any price they can get! If they do not, by “bell, book and candle,” to use one of their own Cathotic adjurations, in five years they will have nothing to sell ! Calitornia will be Texasized to a certainty. “Could our voice penetrate the Escurial, we would humbly give the same advice to Her Catholic Majesty respecting Cuba! The haughty pride of Spain will revolt at the proposition to sell Cuba, as her soldiers in the Low Countries were accustomed to starve cheerfully, rather than confess their master had neglected them! But we ad- vise the Queen's ministers to put their pride in their pocket and get something for Cuba better than nothing. We know the raging appetite of our country-men and race for Lano. They have fallen in love with Cuba, and will have it sooner or later.” Fruits of Polkery.—The Harrisburg (Pa.) Telegraph says that since the receipt of the President’s anti-Tariff Message, followed by the ultra Free ‘Trade Report of the Secretary of the Treasury, Messrs. Pratt & Son have stopped their works and discharged their hands, both at Harrisburg and across the Susquehanna, at the mouth of the Connodogwinet. The rolling mill there was recently built and put into operation in May last. ‘The Messrs. Pratt were most strenuous sup- porters of Polk, and all their hands are said to have voted for him, under the belief that he was in favor of the Tariff which gave them work and bread. They are now without employment, reaping the fruits of the deception practiced up- on them. Such are the benefits that are to be conferred upon the poor by Polk’s Frec Trade Policy. Christmas.—Times change and men change with them. So says the Salem Gazette. At this period Christmas day is religiously observ- ed by numerous individuals, and by several powerful sects in our country ; yet the follow. ing is an exact transcript from a law of the col- ony of Massachusetts in 1651 : person so ; shall for such offence Posing s meg pee cae But-as “ a barking dog never bites” this pro- mise to take the American side amounte to-no- thing more! On the Tariff question, which side does the party take? Is it not the foreign or Tory side? Qn the question of naturaliza- tion that pest is unquestionably opposite to the American side, ag well in act as declamation'! If it be meat and intended, as appears te be, that we must have ‘@ war, and that the war pur. ty shall have the distinguished name of the A. merican party, we ayer most distinctly that it would have a betiér and more appropriate name, to be called the fool’s party ! and fur two most substantial reasons. First that the whole of Oregon, is not worth the cost of a single year’s war. And second, it is uncertain whether it ean be obtained by fighting! “‘The battle is not to the strong, nor the race to the swift.” — The very beginning of war isa confession on both sides that the result is doubtful ; for what reasonable man would begin to fight when cer- tain of being beaten? Permit us to state the proposition, that in case this war fever should terminate in the chilling consequence of the entire loss of juris- diction over the whole rocky desert of Oregon, ag well as in the loss of more than its value in public treasure, leaving out of consideration the loss of life and other attendant evils of a state of war, who. then would take the American side-of the question to brag upon, and totry im. mediately the result of another disaster of like consequence 7? Such insane thirst for war, such madman folly, such reckless bravado, such shallow attempt to appear brave! such hypo- critical design to whistle up the lacking virtue of courage is sufficient to make even devils re- joice over the infatuation of deluded partizans ! v [For the Watchman. ]} A correspondent of the Raleigh Register over the title of Sylvanus, in discussing the Peniten- tiary question, to be decided by the popular vote at the next Angust election, assumes the pro- position, that the system, so far as it has been tried in other States, is no preventive of crime, and for that reason gravely concludes that it is an evil that North Carolina is now happily clear of, and by his advice should so remain. Toes. tablish this proposition the writer asserts, if the Penitentiary prevented crime, the prison would be empty and vacant at the end of the term of the first tenants, and would not yield the great profits that some are reported to do, for the pro- fits are proportioned tu the number of prisoners, therefore an increase of profits show conclu- sively an increase of crime. This plausible argument, allows nothing for the increased skill and experience in the management of such an institution. If the great olject of Legislation is to prevent crime, it would be well to repeal the whole chapter of crimes and punishments in the Statute Book: Where there is no law. “FA ee a a ” |there-can be no transgresdon ; therefore the law is the ca ten@, and the result is that ing transgressors, hence they should be annul: ed-ta prevent crime.~ But the object of Legi- slation is or at least should be to define crime and apportion punishment, with as regular gra- dation as practicable; and the Penitentiary system it is conceived would greatly assist the proper gradation of punishment to crime in the administration of justice by the Judicial tribu- nals of our State. Another objection stated to the introduction of this system, predicated upon the anticipated consequence, should the prison happen to be profitable to the State, it would awaken an a- vidity in the community, to detect and punish crime in order to enhance the profits of the prison and diminish taxation. Such awakened avidity we should think and believe, rendering detection and punishment the more certain, would be the best preventive of crime that hu- man art has ever been able to devise. The thief will not steal when he is aware that some person is watching to be a witness against him. The like motive, to wit, the fear of detection, ofien induces the bolder criminal to add murder to robbery ; he would surely be content with the profits of his pludering if it were not for the fear of certain detection, therefure he destroys the immediate evidence of the first crime, there- by adding a second and more atrocious, but de- tection more remote and doubtful. The certainty of punishment as ascertained by long experience, is the better preventive of of crime, than the severity or amount of punish- ment: Such is the opinion often expressed hy the most eminent English Judges, in adminis- tering the sanguinary criminal code .of that country, whose laws we have adopted to a large extent; and it is our pride and boast to have mitigated much of their alledged severity. The Penitentiary system, it is believed, wou!d prove to be a further mitigation of our present sys- tem of too sanguinary punishments, on account of which Juries often refused to convict, either because the punishment is too great of too ex- pensive. ‘Tu keep a convict locked up in pri- sun for six or twelve months is a considerable tax upon cach individual in the county: when it operates as a steward instead of a punish- ment to the criminal, by furnishing him board- ing and lodging fur the time at public expense, when he should be making some. exertion to gain a living for himself, as honest men are obliged todo. Such a result as thé rewarding of crime at the expense of honest industry is in fact a promotion and encouragement of crime instead of a preventive. The adoption of the Penitentiary system would relieve the honest part of the community from the odious tax ev- ery year levied upon them for the punishment crime, or as sometimes happens for the re- a f we enact peas the express purpose of mak. | We understand that in the resolutions adopted. at a. meeting-of the Locofocos, (held we.don't know, when, for we have not seen them.) that.they announce to the world:their. determination “to take th Amertean side!” on the Oregon question, We were not aware that there were any citizens in the equnatry. who would not take that side until the sapseiit. democracy o our town made known the fact. It gives us pleastre to be able to make know, that the Democracy hereabouts, has de. termined to take the right stde for once, for it is seldom they come to such a com. mendable conclusion. But we suppos (not meaning any disrespect to those who composed that patriotic meeting.) that the reason why they take the position they de on this question, is the distance from the seat of war, provided we are so unfortu. nate, as to be compelled to battle for Ore. gon. .« We are fully aware of the insinuatiog intended tobe cast by the resolutions of the democratic leaders of Salisbury : But look. ing upon that as no more than an attempt toingratiate themselves into the good opin. ion of the people, (who they suppose to be as mad upon the subject as they are) would merely inquire of them what they think of the Hon. Jounw C. Catnoun’s course in the Senate of the United States in re. gard to Oregon? Has he too taken the British side with the Whigs, as the reso. lutions would seem to imply? If he has not, then the insinuation of the resolutions is false, for every Whig Senator who has yet spoken on the subject have announced with Mr. Catnoun, that though they de- precate war, yet if it must come—they will stand by the eountry right or wrong.— Does this jook like deserting their country! It is evidently manifest that these Pat. riotic Democrats of Salisbury have been in too much of a hurry ;—for knowing them as well as we do, and in what estimation they profess to hold the distinguished Se- nator from South Carolina, they would pot under any consideration cast such a foul aspersion upor him, as they undoubtedly have in their windy resolutions ; and to set matters right we would, to relieve them from the unpleasant dilemma, in which they have been placed (ignorantly no doubt.) recommend a cal! of anotber meeting of the unterrified democracy of Salisbury, and the adoption of a resolution somewhat like the following: at a meeting of the democracy held on— —ult., we did not intend to insinuate, oF to cast any reflection upon the Hon. J.C. C., for his course on the Oregon questios, but have the utmost confidence in his wit dom and patriotism. We think that such a course necessary to keep up their show of Jove for Mr. Catnous, as well the preservation of their own consistency. But Mr. Cavnocy is not the only Senator of the Democrati¢ party, who differs with the party in gener al on this subject. It is also thought that Mr. Benton, (and we don’t suppose any one will question his democracy.) will take sides with Mr. Catsovn, though with what certainty is not known. And we think we speak the sentiments of the democracy of Rowan, when we say, if we have a0y democrats in the country, Mr. Benton # one. UCP Nearly every Locofoco member of the House of Representatives who has spoken on the motion to refer the resold: tions of the Legislature of Massachusetts to a Select Committee, has either insipua- ted or openly declared that the Native American and the Whig party were 8! ing at the same object, notwithstanding the opposition proclaimed on the fioor the House to that party by leading 9° influential Whigs. The reason for this illiberal course of the immaculate Loce focos is obvious. They are well aware that the only hope of gaining the support of the adopted -portion ef our citize®s 1s by making false impressions io order 10 make them believe that the Whigs des ward of criminals, by enforcing them to earn their own reward. to take away from them the privilege The Penitentiary it is conceived should not receive any other inmates than such as are con- victed of minor offences, all offenders that are now punished by fine and imprisonment, whip- ing, pilory, craping, branding, or usy thing less than hanging, should be considered as proper inmates for the Penitentiary.

The policy of the whigs We are proud to say, is not sec- onal, it has the prosperity of no particu: | \sr portion of our country or of our citi- yeas in preference to the other in view, pat the welfare of the whole country. The Washington Union, speaking of the Bill presented to Congress by Mr. Douglass of IIIi- pis, providing for the encouragement of emi- tion to Oregon, says— The giving of notice to Great Britain must be wrrie] out with the most scrupulous regard for he faith of this country. ‘The joint occupancy must first cease, by giving the notice, before ye emigration to Oregon can be accelerated o sufpcient numbers to settle the country.— Nothigg is so well calculated to bave tbat effect 4s to apportion the lands among the actual set- vers. Lhe notice should, however, precede he appropriation of the territory. In addition to the measures connected with judge Douglass's reported bill, it becomes, as | ye bumbly think, the policy of Congress to | yess the preparations for the defence of the | country. We understand, with great pleasure, hat other efficient measures are about to be brought furward for this purpose. Why should | ye hesitate for one moment? The news by | ihe Acadia is not decisive of peace or of war. But be this result as it may, we cannot conceal ie faet, that the English government are busy ia preparing ; and that, among other arrange. nents, they have inspected the mail steamers vith the view of seeing whether they can car- y the heaviest artillery. * * * * * No man can now positively say, what will the result—whether peace or war. But as we Eng‘ish are preparing, let us prepare too, immediately, vigorously, with all the energy in | owe power.

They have. already Resolutions before Congress, to take Mili- tary possessions of Oregon up to the 54th 40 degree of Latitude. The excitement has been considerably increased by the warlike debate in the Senate, to-day. It is said, Mr. Calhoun is conservative in his policy ; if so, he will probably render im- ; : | portant services. An influetial Loco mem- ican debate has been recommenced in the ber of the House from the Empire State remarked to-day, that the country needed the services of Mr. Clay, and enquired of a member from his State, whether he could be prevailed upon to return to the Senate? What an admission, and what a question from a Democrat, who, but a | were introduced concerning the right of the U. few short months ago, assisted in cheating | the country out of his services as Presi- | dent of the United States? Mr. J. Q. Adams, in a speech on the 2nd inst., on a bill reported to the House to raise two regiments of dragoons for the Oregon service, declared himself in favor of giving to England the one year’s notice. He argued that was the first step neces- sary to be taken in the matter. When that was done, then he would be ready to proceed with war preparations, and not before. He thought the question should be settled, and the one year’s notice re- quired, was the first step towards it. He believed there would be no war. War did not necessarily ensue if the notice be given. f The Hon. Duncan Cameron has been ) prevailed upon, by the unanimous and earnest appeal of the Stockholders, to | serve as President of the Bank of the State of North Carolina. Preparations for Defence.—We understand, (says the Baltimore Patriot of the 27th ultimo,) that the Committee in Congress on Fortifica- tions, proceeded this morning in the steamboat, chartered for the purpose, to Fort McHenry and thence to “Sollers’ Point Flats,” for the pur- pose of examining the condition of those places, andreporting thereon. Col. J.G. Davies, May- or, and a number of gentlemen of this city, ac- companied the Committee. DP The Committee appointed by the British Government to devise means for the relief of the sufferers in Ireland from the scarcity of food, will. it is thought by the editor of the New York Courier, re- commend the free introduction of Indian Corn fromthe U. States. It is known that one of the members of the Committee, Sir Randolph Routh. late Commanding Gen- eral of the British forces in Canada, has written to this country for full and detail- ed information concerning the various ways in which Indian Corn is used in the United States as an article of food. Doct. AsHpeL Smitn, late Texian Minister to France and England, who was said to be unfavorable to the annexation project, has writ- ten a letter to the editor of the Galveston Civ- ilian, going to show the contrary. > Those who pay in advance for the WatcxHman, get it at two dollars; whereas, those who defer it to the end of the year are charged two dollars and fifty cents. Now where we know the patron, and are satisfied he is able to pay, we don’t care to let him slip to the end of the year ; for we consider fifty cents pretty good interest on two dollars, for one year. A thousand subscribers paying at the end of the year, are worth $500 more to the printer than the same number paying in advance ; | and if we could so arrange it, we would have none but cold to cholera—from a snake-bite to a disloca- | such as are good, and let them all pay at the expiration.

Thus we loose a half dollar every year on those who pay in advance, and they, of course, save it. But although this is the case, yet we do not lament it, but, on the contrary wou!d prefer that all would pay in advance. It is better for both editor and patron. It saves to one the trouble and expenses of collecting ar- rearages and obviates losses by runaways, insolvents, &e., (which eat up the profits,) and to the other it saves a half dollar annualiy. The subscription year of many of our patrons dates from the 28th January. This is, therefore, to such of them as wish to change their practice—who wish to try the advance system—a favorable time to do so. er — Died At his father’s residence, near Mocksville, on the eve- 19 years.

We earnestly ask the continued confidence and support of all true minds in the country. } ENGRAVINGS.—There will be four engravings each year,executed carefully ; and what is of more importance, accompanied with ample biographies, that may stand as a part of the history of the couatry. TERMS. The Review will continue to be published at Five Dol- lars a year,in advance. It hag been suggested, from some quarters, that the price should be reduced in accord- ance with that of the organ of the opposing party—viz : to $3 00. A moment's reflection will show the disad- vantages of this ; for it has also been found necessary to reduce the pages of that Journal from 112 to 80 a month —a reduction to which neither we nor our readers aie willing tocome. We have always isseed 112 pages, and exp2ct occasionally to find it necessary to print 128 in one number. This month, it will be seen, we have given that number of pages, being the same amount with Black- wood. Certain it is, that it is entirely impossible to cre- ate and sustain a truly able and national work—euch as a Whig Review must be—dealing comprehensively with great subjects, either within the space of 80 pages, or, if with more pages at the Democratic price of $3. We should prefer to stop the Review. The cash system and payment ia advance, must be ‘urged on our subscribers, it being the on!y way that a periodical can be efficiently sustained. REDUCTION OF POSTAGE. A great item of expense is saved, in the reduction of posiage. The postage of the Review is not half the for- m-r amount. 17 It is earnestly requested of every one willing to be interested in this design, especially Whigs, to obtain as many subscribers as possible, transmitting them with their places of residence, to the Editor in New-York, through the postmaster. If each would only procure, or be the means of procuring, one subscriber—and many could ea- sily obtain a number—it is seen at once that most impor- tant aid would be extended to this Review with a !ittle trouble, and some service, we believe, to the great inter- eats of the country. That this may be entered into more readily by Com- mittees, Societies, Clubs, &c., the following liberal terms are offered :—Five copies for $20 ; the amount to be re- mitted in current New-York funds; or any person becom- ing responsible for four copies, will receive a fifth gratis. Persons in the country, remitting the amount of sub- scription, can receive the work by mail,strongly envel- oped, or in any other way arranged by themselves.

The Senate was thrunged this, morniog, in consequence of the rumor that Mr. Calhoun had determined to offer counter resolutions to Mr. Hanegan’s war propositions. The substance of Mr. Calhoun’s first”re- marks is as follows : Mr. Calhoun said be had not come with a substitute for them with some prefatory remarks. He was glad that the resolutions had come from such a quarter as the gentleman from Indiana, for they at least had the merit of being open, direct and manly, They came tothe point, and denied the authority of this government to yield up, in any compromise, any part of the territory of Oregon. They denied by implication, the | power of the President to offer the 49th paral- ‘Jel, and assumed that the question can be set- tled only by force; that we shall have no peace but by our own dictation at the cannon’s mouth. A vote on this proposition will draw a broad | line between those who are in favor of a pacific course, and those who are for an appeal to arms. I am in favor of an adjustment by negotiation. [ am in favor of peace; if peace can be honor- ably preserved, I wish to settle this question by negotiation, if it can be done, and if not, [ am in favor of such a course as will throw the onu8 of war on Great Britain. I approve of the offer of the 49th parallel, and it is my wish to co-operate with the Executive in an adjustment on that basis. If peace cannot be honorably preserved—if war should ensue—I shall stand by my country in ouremergency. But this will not be an ordinary war, and I will hold those re- sponsible for it who shall by their rash course drive the country into it. I hope this question | will at a proper time be discussed in a calm and deliberate manner, and that the Senate will sig- nify its own views by an adoption of the coun- | ter resolutions which I offer. antagonistic to those of Mr. Hanegan, and de. claring that the President, in offering the 49th parallel had done nothing derogatory to the hon- or and best interests of the country. He declared, too, in the course of the debate, that he was opposed to giving the notice till ne- | gotiation was further tried. | It appeared in this debate that my informa- ‘tion was correct, that Mr. Ealhoun had deter- | mined to use his influence, and had used it, to | prevent a war—to prevent any imprudent action | of Congress, which alone can produce war—to | promote a compromise on the 49th parallel, and that he will succeed. | Mr. Archer declared to-day that he hailed | He announced to the country that there was no | longer any danger of war. oe | Isthmus of Panama.—A correspondent of the Journal of Commerce states, on the | Whose position makes him acquainted with | the views of the ministry, that the Englis sent of N.

What times estabishes and consecrates —what experience adopts and confirms— what all men of all nations unite in say- ing is right and equitable, is so,no doubt ; for a popularity of that sort is free from the passing passion of the moment, and fixes in society its roots so deep and so strong that time cannot destroy it; but the popularity of a measure with the masses is the cant of the demogogue, whose trade it is to dupe the ignorant and flatter the prejudiced.

Brazier, while on her way from Zanesville, Ohio, to this city, struck a snag about 12 miles below the mouth of White Riv- er, on the Mississippi, and immediately turned bottom up. It was about 12 o’clock when the accident occurred, and the night was bitter cold. wards of 50 perished by this terrible accident, some of the unfortunate victims only escaping being drowned to freeze to death after reaching the shore. At the time of the disaster of course and so suddenly did the boat careen and go over that such as made out to release themselves pane from their beds—they had no time to save, much less put on their clothing. | _ The Diamond came along a short time after the accident, and discovered the wreck of the Belle Zane bottom up. The officers of the for- mer boat picked up sixteen of the passengers | of the latter at two different points on the Ar- kansas side. | | Napoleon, where the balance of those saved on the Arkansas side had previously assembled. | It seems that immediately after the accident the cabin separated from the hull, on which those | who were saved floated. The names of those | lost could not be ascertained further than that ‘of Mr. Bowen, lady and child, of Zanesville. | There were five ladies on board, all of whom | were fortunately saved except Mrs. B. 250 barrels of flour, the property of Bowen ; 900 empty barrels marked C.

The U.S. mail, from Louis. | ville, Memphis, and mouth of the Ohio river, | was also on board, and all, together with the | | | | | boat and fixtures was a total loss. Several of the unfortunate passengers came | down on the Diamond to a point above, and six others came as faras this city. ‘The names of _the latter are John P. Nestle, of Albany, N.

The Senator from Indiana had endeavored to draw a eon- trast between his (Mr. C.’s) course upon _the Texas question, and his course upon this. The views which governed me (said Mr. C.) upon that question, govern me al- so upon this. I pursued in reference to ' Texas what I conceived to be the best course. If I acted boldly and promptly on that occasion, it was becatuse boldness and | promptness were necessary tosuccess. It | was the golden opportunity: and one year’s delay would have lost Texas to us forever. If I am for more deliberate mea- sures on this occasion, it is not because } am not a friend to Oregon. On the con- trary, Oregon has no better friend than _myself: there is .o one who would ven- ture more to save it. But itis asked why I do not pursue the same action as in re- 'gard to Texas. If the gentleman will re- fer tomy remarks in 4843, he will find that the views which governed me then e tie same with those which govern me now. I believe that precipitancy will lose The Se- | you Oregon forever—no, not forever; but gle, and then it will require another strug: gle hereafter when we become stronger | to regain it. . [ will not go into this question now; I -am prepared, when it comes up for dis- cussion, to show, if argument ean show that the principle involved in these reso- lutions, so far fram gaining Oregon, will | for the present lose every inch of that ter- 'Titory ; and it is not on that account, as from the desire of avoiding war, that I _tor’s resolutions. Sir, if my advice had been pursued we should never have been involved in this controversy at all. I now act under circumstances not produced by the territory of Oregon, which I hold as valuable as the Senator from Indiana him- selfcan do. If you institute a compari- son between Oregon and Texas, I would say that the former isas valuable to us as it. Ifthe Senator and myself disagree, we disagree only as the means of secur- ing Oregon, and not as to its importance.

Fiscassion of this matter, except in be laid‘ upon the table. . _ Mr. CALHOUN disclaimed: any inten- tion of lauding the ‘President, nor did’ he accuse the gentleman from Indiana of any intention to censure him. It was very certain, however, that the sense of the Senate, when taken upon the original res- olutions and'the amendments, would show very clearly the views entertained with reference to the settlement of the Oregon difficulty. ~ Those who agreed with the honorable mover of the original tesolu- those on the opposite side would be dis- posed to continue the negotiations. That was the whole amount of the matter ;— and his sole reason for moving the amend- ments was that the sense of the Senate might be fully taken. Mr. ARCHER said it seemed to him to. be a matter of no great importance what disposal the Senate might fina'ly make of the two propositions now before them.— He considered it chiefly of consequence as displaying the views entertained by ivdi- p| tiake the‘ motion’ which he had "proposed tions would rejectall further negotiations; | ee Re sion While nAgOtiAtoby Wete go; Atve : IS Were golt ‘on. He trusted den Canine WORLL te or élsé Sdbmit 4 proposition to remove the subject from-the Legislative to the Exec- utive records.’ He would not object'to the discussion ‘of it there, for that was. the appropriate place ; but he regretted eve- ry effort, every attempt that'was madé to discuss thé’ question at ‘this’ crisis before the country, especially if it were ‘the ob- ject of any person'on that floor’ to “pre- pare the’hearts of the people for war.”— In his: opinion the resolutions necessari} involved an ‘advisory power. ‘The Exec- utive was entitled to the initiative’ in all these matters, and it did not become the Senate to assume it. “It was the duty of the Senate when negotiations were open- ed, or expected to be opened, to wait un- tit the Presideat informed them whether he had madé a treaty, and, if so, until he had presented the treaty tothem. If they | Were to express an opinion in favor of the resolutions or of the amendments they | would stand committed—committed by | their legislative vote in the face of the whole country. It must be manifest to every one that, whether they decided for the fortyninth parallel or for the whole of Oregon, it would. be prejudging of the | question. If they should act upon these vidual Senators; and he merely rose at this time for the purpose of expressing his | profound satisfaction at the course taken | by the distinguished Senator from South Carolina, He had had o¢casion to express his views upon the subject heretofore. He came here imbued with apprehension, but he hailed the attitnde taken by the Sena- tor as an undoubted omen of peace. And from his place there he proclaimed the glad news. And why? They of that side of the House found on the other side mem- bers enough to sustain them in the ground which they were going to take. Sir (said Mr. Archer,) when I speak of peace, I disdain to say that the word means no other than an honorable peace. If there are any in this Senate who are willing to make any sacrifices of national honor, they will not, after such a delin- quency dare to exhibit themselves in the face of the popular indignation which will meet them on all sides. and had men kere, if there by any of the latter description, will equally be found Bat who ever heard until a few days ago that the honor of the country was involved? Was not Presi- dent Jackson sedulous enough for the pres- ervation of the honor of the country 7— Daring the eight years of his administra- | tion it was-thought no dishonor that the Government should allow a question of this.nature to be arbitrated. What has produced so great a change now? Are we more sensible of public honor than our predecessors in the Government of this country? Sir, there is no ditonor in con- ducting of pacific negotiations. Nay, in my opinion there will be more honor in continuing the negotiation than in inter- rupting them by hasty and ill-advised con- duct upon this floor. What is the aspect which we should present to the country | supposing the case reversed, and the ques- | tion brought up in the British Parliament _and language of insult and contumely in- i dulged in? Would any one under such | irratation be disposed to listen to concili- ) alory terms of peaco? We vught nor, _then, to do that which, if done by others, _we should be disposed to resent as the highest indignity. Let us apply the ar- | gument to ourselves. If we seize every | occasion, at the commencement as well ‘as in the progress of the controversy, to heap every sort of contumely upon our adversaries, what are we toexpectattheir -hands? Why, that they should refuse all _ just conciliation. | Sir, I repeat, it is not for the purpose will be hailed as an.omen of peaée; and 'that peace cannot fail to be secure un- ‘less we, by some egregious act of foily, disturb the relations at present existing. | | Thecontroversy can be terminated, and with honor to the country, inthe progress | of further negotiations.

He repeated | that, according to the letter as well as the | spirit of the Constitution, the Senate had hot the initiative ; and it did not become _them to express an opinion; they shoald ‘leave the matter where the Constitution _had placed it. Mr. HANNEGAN said that he enter- tained the most profound respect for the _ opinions of the distinguished Senator from | Delaware, but it certainly seemed to him strange to hear from a gentleman of his learning and experience the declaration | that, the Senate had no right to assume _the initiative under any state of facts.

But if it can be settled by ne- gotiations, if peace can be preserved con- sisten'ly with the national honor, then there may be powerful reasons against the adoption of the resolution of the Sen- ator from Ohio, as I shall be prepared to show when that resolution comes up. TWENTYNINTH CONGRESS. FIRST SESSION. Wepyespay, Jan. 7, 1846 U. S. SENATE. Mr. Calhoun asked to be excused from serving on the committee of finance. He had been made the chairman of the com- mittee in his absence and was not in suf- ficient health to discharge its duties. The request was granted and Mr. Speight was appointed to fill the vacancy. Mr, Johnson, of Md. presented a mem- orial from merchants and others of Bal- timore praying a repeal of the pilot laws. treduced into this body might have: the effect to divide the body in such way. as tomake it appear that there were men here, or any where in this country, who * desired war for the sake of war. - Midiout referring to the necessities which sometimes exist for bringing into attion the martial energies of the country fer protection of national interests, if mator desired to be understood as that those who go for the whole of ones: to be denounced as the main- ine promoters of war, merely be- cause.they cover with their affections the whole soi! and heritage of the country. the Senator will find that sort of « war party ; | eyaed will find that sort of a war party | i” this country ; she will find that sort of'| & War spirit -ply implanted in the bo- | -somsof hine-tenths of the American peo- ples They will find that we are not to be ned or terrified, or in any manner | deterred from the prosecution of our legal | rights, by being told, “ If you dare advance, | Great Britain will declare war.” Sir, I we heard this war-cry on more occa- Sthan.one within my briefexperience | affairs. I have heard this ery | yloud and long with regard tothe end of the same line of boundary, dinduce a Senate to ratify a treaty B gave away a partof one of the sov- States of this Union, after the same 3 had unanimously declared the pn- tionable right of the Union to every ach of her territory. I saw this produc- ed. hy the clamor of war, raised for the mrpose of stariling and -terrifying the ercial interests of this country, and being a total abandonment of the na- wal honor. Men having properly em- tked in commerce were frightened be- wWuse that preperty was endangered, and ‘they were thus induced to stifle their A- “mericas feelings, and to throw their whole , - fufluence into the scale of the common en- emy, And now are we to hav® the cry et ap that we dare not assert the whole | ‘Tights, ‘as, if we do, shall unavoida- be involved in war. Though our ims-are indisputable, we are neverthe- Jess:to sorrender them, because, if we do pot, we must fight, and we must sustain “some losses of property.

But peace we must have, peace at any rate and on any terms. This is the AED Pana thus it is tgat Great Britain has been able to enroach upon us in times not ~ long by ; to burn our steamers in our ef and send them with the rew into the foaming catraract ; to stand before the world, on the Patliament, and deny that even iad been made us. And are 'be bullied and alarmed by the ions of Senators here?

The bill making appropriations for the Cumberland road was taken up and read, and on motion of Mr. Dayton postponed to this day fortnight. The Senate then proceeded tothe consid- eration of the bill heretofore reported, to raise a regiment of mounted riflemen. tonsaid the bill was important face measure. It had nothing to do with War or rumorsof war. It was a measure called for in consequence of the extension of our settlements, and in advo- cating the bill he should not allude in any manner to our foreign relations. Mr. B. then went on to give his reasons why the bill should be passed, and alter inserting an amendment appropriating $76,500 to defray the expenses of raising the regi- ment and some other slight amendments. the bill was ordered to be engrossed, and read a third time. The next basiness in order being the bill to settle the claims of the State of New Hampshire against the U. States, Mr. Phelps suggested that it might be post- poned to some future day to give Senators an opportunity to acquaint themselves with the merits of the claim. Mr. Atherton acquiesced in the postpone- ment, and after stating the circumstances under which the claim arose, the bill was postponed until Monday next. The bill to establish pre-emption rights was posfponed indefinitely, The Senate then proceeded to the con- sideration of the bill reported from the committee on Post Offices and Post Roads, establishing post routes in Texas., which after some little discussion was referred back to the committee for the purpose of amendment, The joint resotutian to regulate and re- duce the price of the pubite: printing, af- it applicable to aid the printing hereto- fore executed this sessions was ordered to be engrossed and read 4 third time. The Senate then went into Executive Session, and after a short time adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. A motion was made by Mr. Smith of III. that the clerk of the House should forth- with provide for the purchase of maps of the Oregon territory to accompany the President’s Message, the motion was de- | bated at some length and finally laid on the table. Mr. Rhett of S. C. asked leave of the House to: make a personal explanation.— | Remembering what he had said of Mr. | Adams’ opposition to the war of 1812, and /his prompt denial of the charge. Mr. | Rhett came with what he supposed to be proofs of his assertions. They were first, @ communication from Mr. Adams to the Russian Minister of war.consenting to transmit a communication from the Rus- sian government to our own tendering the services of that government for an amica- ble termination of the war. The next proof was a letter from Mr. Adams commenting upan the unprepared state of United States ta enter into the campaign. These two circumstances, according to Mr. Rhett, warranted the conclusion that gentleman from Massachusetts was to the war. r. Adams was permitted to reply by the unanimous consent of the House, and : Pe i tes: 2 aa 8 fo Sir, ] uc 30t intend to anticipate the dis- : occupied nearly an hour in the delivery of. = ee Ebriefly rejoined—but evident. ~- This: matter retiy been sottled, Br. ‘Holmes obtained the unanimous consen ene ‘House to introduce s joint resolu- ‘tion, granting. to the. el =e ment Association'any portion of: the pores kes erecting @ monument to George Washington. ~ ST Puig’ save was grated and the'Joint Res- olution passed unanimously. it i Mr. Hamlin from the Committee on Elections, made a report to the effect that the sitting member (Mr. Cahell,) was not entitled to his seat, and that Mr. Brock- enbrough, the contesting member, was en- titled to it. : A minority report was made, declaring the sitting member legally and constitu- tionally elected. The reports were laid upon the Speaker's table to be called up hereafter. The House, on motion of Mr. Yancey, of Ala. resolved itself into Commmittee of the Whole, Mr. Tibbatts in the chair. — The debate was resumed upon the Ore- gon question by Mr. Yancey, who address- ed the House in favor of our claim to the whole of Oregon—but in opposition to the giving of the notice at this time. Mr. Caleb B. Smith followed in an able speech in opposition to giving the notice and in favor of the course pointed out in the minority report from the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Mr. S, believed that if the notice was given, that at the expi- ration of the twelve months we should find ourselves at war with Great Britain. The House then adjourned. Tucrspay, January, 8, 1846. In the Senate, Mr. Allen, from the Com- mittee on Foreign Relations, to which had heen referred the joint resolutions hereto- fore offered by him, advising the Presi- dent of the U. States to give notice to G. Britain of.the termination of the treaty of joint occupancy, reported as follows: Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, in Congress assembled, That in virtue of the second article of the convention of the 6th August, 1827, between the U. States and G. Britain, relative to the country west- ward of the Stony or Rocky mountains, that the U. States do now think fit to an- nul and abrogate, that. Convention, and that the said Convention is hereby accor- dingly annulled and abrogated—Provided that this Resolution shall take effeet after the term of twelve months from the day on which due notice shall be given to G. Britain of the passage of this resolution ; and the President of the United States is hereby authorised and required to give said notice, and also at the expiration of the said Convention, to issue his proclama- tion setting forth the fact. Mr. Allen said he would move to take up the resolution on Monday next. with a view to have an early day fixed for its consideration. He did not press its con- sideration earlier, in deference to an hon- orable Senator who informed him that he wished a Mcminacy question first to be disposed of. In the House of Representatives the O- regon question was still under discussion. THE FIRES OF THE PAST YEAR. [From the Philadelphia Chronicle.) As the year 1845 wil! probably be se- signated hereafter as “the great fire year,” we have, at much expense of the time and labor, prepared a record of all the fires of any account that have occurred in the United States, Canada, and the West In- dies, from 81st of December, 1844, to Jan- uary 1, 1846. The list has been prepar- ed trom full files of papers at our dispo- sal, and we believe it contains (as far as heard from) all the fires worthy of notice that have taken place during the period specified. The loss of property, it will be seen, is immense, and we cannot point to another year within eur recollection where- in the destruction of property by the de- vouring element has been greater. The losses, as given in our table, amount to the enormous sum of twenty-seven millions eight hundred and twenty-five thousand eight hundred and fifty dollars! and yet this monstrous sum does not cover, accerd- ing to our calculation, more than two- thirds the actual loss which has been sus- tained by fire in the United States, Gana- da, and the West Indies during the year 1845. When it is taken into considera- tion that we have not estimated the im- mense forests of timber that have been de- stroyed, and probably a thousand fires where the losses have been but a few bun- dred dollars, we shall not be far out of our calculation. ° . [The table compiled by the Chronicle extends to about twocolumns. We copy only a few of the items of the greatest magnitude, as follows :} February 3—Upwards of two hundred houses destroyed, at Bridgeton, Barbadoes. Loss $2,000,000.

"Phat crimes should not be punished through motives of revenge, is a benevolent principle of ldw z and to carry out this principle it is enac- ted that certain acts shall be deemed and taken as public misdemeanors or crimes, although they operate only to individual loss and dam- age, under the supposition that the whole com- munity may not feelat the same time a spirit of retaliation or revenge operating upon their judgment. Still the-eonsideration that the cost of a prosecution must be borne by the public, tends in some measure to spread or inflame the spirit of retaliation. ‘There would surely be more common sense and sound reason in tax- ing criminals with the expense of punishment according to the adage, “let him that dances pay the Piper,”’ than to let the charge of prose- cution (as at present) remain on the county Treasuries, to be furnished or replenished’ by taxation on the citizens and their property.— Sylvanus expresses the opinion, that it would be in bad taste and disgraceful to derive reven. ue from crime and receive the wages of iniqui- ty. for any purpose whatever; if a State Prison should yield any revenue beyond its expenses, it would be particularly humiliating to add it to the literary fund of the State. Admitting this matter of refined taste to be a substantial objection, it can be easily satisfied and obviat- ed, by sending the surplus revenue of the Pen- itentiary to the several county Treasuries to supply them with the means of paying the ex- pense of State prosecutions necessary to be | carried on in each county ; there is no antici- pation that a fastidiousness of taste will prevail with them to reject it. The most formidable objection to the adoption of the Penitentiary System is the first cost necessary. to he encoun- tered by taxation! ‘aking this in its strongest peint of view; the last Legislature has said that this expense must be understood as arising from direct tax, but why should it he so? See- ing they had no power to control the action of a future Legislature : and the State has other sources of revenue beside direct taxes, as much under the control of a future Legis!ature as they were under that of a former. What this cost may amount to is a matter not yet ascer- tained, and must depend on the will of the Le. gislature who may adopt the System under in. structions from its constituents. Let the cost be estimated upon surmise at the sum of one hundred thousand duilars ; it would not be re- quired nor could it be judiciously expended in one year, but must necessarily be divided into an expenditare of 3, 4, or 5 years: and it may be recolleeted that the State Capitol was re- cently built ia seven or eight years at an ex- pense of five hundred thousand dollars, without any. oppressive taxation ; so that to raise this comparatively small sum of $100 0U0 by taxa- tion in three or four years, would scarcely be felt in the sensitive pockets of the most econom- ical, and it should be the more cheerfully paid under the prospect of its ultimately remunerat- ing interest, if not principal. The State House as before observed cost $500,000, the annual interest of which sum should be $30,000, when | it only saves in rents about $4,000, thus $26,.- 090 goes to the consideration of honor and or- nameat, and in pecuniary calculation is an en- tire loss. ‘The like results on a smaller scale are deduced from the cost of all other of our public buildings all of which have been paid for by voluntary contribution’ or a constrained tax, such as churches, Court-Houses and Prisons. So that should the Penitentiary Syste, fail to produce the anticipated beneficéat results, it will only be another public experiment, without a novel conclusion. GRAVEMEN. LATF FROM SIERRA LEONE. We have advices from Sierra Leone to | the 30th August, and the information in regard to the slave-trade is very interest- ing. It appears from a list published that during the period between the Ist of April, 1844, to the 17th May, 1845, sixty vessels were captured, on board of which nearly 5,000 slaves were found—five of these ves- sels were destroyed, and the remainder condemned. Among the slavers captured was the “ Africano.”.. The officer of the Navy who brought the “ Africano,” stated that the towns of Lagos, on the slave coast, had been completely destroyed. A chief, who was banished from Lagos by the King, about three years ago, returned in July last with a force of ten thousand men, drove out the reigning King and his peo- ple, and took possession of the rivers and town of Onee. It is said that in the con- test upwards of five thousand persons were slain, and during several nights the glare of burning tewns illumined the air for miles around. Some of the slavers pursued their trade in human flesh with great boldness, and one of them, a large brig, fired into and beat off the boats of British and Portu- guise men-of-war.— U. 8S. Gazette. Anecdote of Daniel Webster.—Danicl Webster had a brother, Ezekiel, a man ‘of noble feelings, and whose intellect e- qualled bis more celebrated relative ; but he loved the quiet walks of life, and con- tented himself with the reputation of being an excellent, prudent man, and a sound lawyer, without trying his fortune in the thorny path of politics. The brothers were always warmly attached to each other, and the following anecdote, charac- teristic of their different temperaments. * BE ag tl = Si P ba ; . a ‘ “4 » ERIDAY;EVENING, JANUARY 16, 1845. PORTRAIT PAINTING. We have omitted, unintentionally, fur several weeks, to notice the’ visit, to our Town, of Mr. his arrival here it-was his purpose to. spend only a few weeks with us. He is still here, and:we think those who wish portraits taken would:do well to call on him. They may not have ano. ther opportunity so favorable. Mr, Prore’s pictures do not require the naime to be written underneath to tell who, or what they are: they speak for themselves, and the most unskilful mind can promptly comprehend. LOCOFOCO CONVENTION. We understand this gathering of the “unterrified democracy” which from -the misgivings of some of the Locofoco pa- pers, must have been a small affair, made out to make a nominaté@n for Governor. And who gentle reader do you suppose the nominee is? Is it the Hon. Cuarves Fisuer, who before the meeting of the | Convention,-Wwas ge@Mally designated as the choice of the party? No. For he, it seems, was wisggenough not to be caught in such a trap, (last Summer's campaign having satisfied him.) Well, is it any oth- er of the big men among the dem-o-cr dey? No. Well, who is it? If it must be told, Green W. Catowett, Esq., of Mecklen- burg County, is the man: Not being able to settle down upon any of the big bugs, as a last resort, we suppose, they all agreed to tender the nomination to Mr. Green | W. Cacpwe.., Superintendent of the Mint | at Charlotte. Whether he will consent to give up an office worth 2,000 dollars a year, to run the risk of being elected Go- vernor and get no more, we think is some- what doubtful. If Mr. Caldwell is a man of any perception at all, he must see at once, that if Col. Hoke, one of the most talented and popular speakers, could not defeat our present and dignified Govern- Prime, whose advertisement we publish. On | or, his chance is but poor indeed. But we are not disposed to berate them for not RG irks, Sécheee It having been # ner that there was a large m presented, Judge Caixa the Bank, submitted te the detailed Statements, with showing the general condition well as the condition of the several Brand too far to say, that And it is nol, perhaps, going | no similar Institution in the ‘Union, could pre. sent a more gratifying Exhibit of its affairs, tha, the Bank of the State now-does.

We published a hasty paragraph in our lag in relation to the General Meeting of the Stock, holders of the Bank of the State of North Car olina, and will now .endeavor to supply what was then omitted, The meeting was unusually large and impos. ing, there being 13,640 shares of Stock repro. by doing better.

Green Caldwell, superintendent of the Branch Mint at Charlotte, having a lucra- tive and comfortable office by the Grace of John Tyler, according to the newest opinion of the | important source of Revenue 2] progressive Democracy, must pass under the Administration Guilotine. He must resign his | present office, to accept the Locofoco nomina- tion for Governor. When that is done it will | make room for Gen. , Col. , or | Major , to step in and take his place, with all its golden opportunities ; and then Green may whistle if he can. But if he refuses to resign at the behest of the party, then there will be ample cause to raise the shout of “ whig federalist” against him, “ education is the most ’ either of | which is equal in consequence to the cry of | bad dog in a village. If Green will not be coaxed out, he will be driven out. That is the | ultimatum, the conclusive 1esolution on the sub- | ject. Honesty and diligence, in office, is no assurance of continuance ! dangerous opponent of democracy,’ No politician with the least glimmering of understanding, could calculate that Green Cald- well, with no kind of Military title, could have a better prospect of being elected to the Gov- nor’s place, than General Saunders, Major L. D. Henry, or Col. M. Hoke, particularly when opposed to the Commander-in-Chief of nine Major Generals, and all the State Militia. It is therefore most clearly demonstrated, that the late progressive Demo atic Convention of the glorious 8th of January, 1846, did conspire a- against the Honorable Green Caldwell to de- prive him of his office. This matter is further illustrated by the consideration that there are a dozen others in and of the State, of equal, if not better sfump speech abilities. Charles Fisher needs not to be mentioned, it being doubtful whether he is of this State or of Choc- taw! Then there is A. F, Gaston, W. W. Avery, J. H. Wheeler, J. W. Ellis, B. Craige, all Western men, besides D. W. Courts, Cad. Jones, Dobson of Surry, and J. Clemmons ;— and in the East there is W. N. Edwards and Gen. Wilson, all without office at present. But why not invite D. C. Reid, Asa Biggs, J. R. J. Daniel or James J. McKay to resign fur the service ef the Democracy? Either of them would have an equal chance to gain the ernor’s seat. -The only f ca not, js that Green’s office lias more of D racy within itself than that ofa men Congress ; at least {thas more. of tin | not so many small fishes, 3 ww 4 - r ef sented. ¢ The following Resolution was adopted by the meeting : Resolved, That a Branch of this Bank be, and is bere- by established at Morganton, Burke county, to be put in operation with such Capit:|, and at such time, as the President and Directors of the Principal Bank may deem expedient. In one of the Statements read to the meeting by Jud Cameron, the fact is stated, that since the first Dividend made by the Bank in July 1835, the State has received from it in Dividends, and the tax on individual shares, the enormous amount of $360,000! (Put the Sub- ‘Treasury into operation, and what would become of this A motion being made to proceed to the election of #- ven Direetors of the Principal Bank, Gov. Moxruw asked leave to present the following Resolutions: Resolced, That in the opinion of this meeting, the prosperous and sound condition of thin Institution, sa the high reputation which it maintains with the put generally, are mainly to be aseribed to the fmancial ity, Strict impartiality, the vigilanee and unwearied s& pervision of the President of the Bank. Resolved, That the Stockholders have learned with w- | feigned regret, that it is the inclination of the Presidemt to withdraw ; and they accordingly unite unanimous it the expression of the hope, and their sincere desire, thet he will consent to continue at the head of the Institaua. Resolved, ‘hat to mitigate, as far as practicable, the severity and labor of his official duties, the Directom of the Principal Bank be, and they are hereby authorised and instructed to appoint, upon the recommendstion of the Presjdent, a confidential Clerk, whose daty it sball be, under the direction of the Ptegident, to conduct his correspondence, keep his Letter Book, and generally to do and perfom such manual labor of the office, or other duties in the Bank, as the President shall direct ; snd that he be allowed such suitable salary as the Boare may deem just and right. The Resolutions having been read, and the question stated to be on their passage, Gov. Morenrad, supported their adoption in a speech of some length, in which he gave his reasons for heving introduced them.

When those questions came up in proper time and order before the Senate, he should be ready to meet them, he hop- ed. in a spirit of devotion to his own coun- ry, and to act upon them accordingly, in be fear of God. He protested against the Senate pushing itself in advance of the fixecutive, and to the exclusion of the Pre- sident, thas snatching from him his right- fal power of conducting our negotiations with foreign Governments. He protested against this the more strongly when it was obvious to every body (and he ap- led to the concurrence of Senators for istruth) that the end and aim of it all was to transfer our foreign negotiations fo the court-yards and hustings, which was a still worse tribunal for such topics than aSenate. He professed to be a Demo- erat, and he believed he was one; but he was a representative Democrat. The De- mocracy of his State, he felt certain, and he supposed the people every where, knew and had always understood that for eve- ry good cause they had lodged the power of carrying on their business with foreign eountries in the hands of their rey esenta- tives, viz. the President, with the Senate whis advisers. He thought North Caro- lina was well satisfied with that arrange- ment of the Constitution, and he knew they ought to be so, and he felt called upon to resist this inovement as an at- tempt at the practical subversion of the Constitution. The people had no desire tothrust themselves into the President's responsibility and his trusts for any such porposes, or for any purpose. No good eld come of it to the country; now whatever ; but. on the contrary, much evil, athome and abroad, in the Senate and opt of it. - "Mr. ET. said he had other objections to his form of proceeding. He bad stated, hen first up, that he did not like the ori: fal resolutions, becatise they would be acensure upon the President; nor the a- mendments, although they lauded the Pre- sident. ‘the appropriate, dignified, and constitutional duties of the Senate were to legislate by practical mandatory laws asa parbof Congress, or, in Executive session, to advise when asked todo it, and seven When advice was not asked in pecu- liar cases, but not barely to declare opin- ions which might reflect honor or censure tpon the President and agitate the people othe nation. Both the Senators had ta- ken excepiion to the manner in which he had been obliged to characterize their re- tolations. The Senator from Indiana de- tied that his resolutions were a censure of the President. Now, Mr. H. thought the propositian was ss plain as the way le the President’s mansion. He had no- thing to do with the Senator's intentions, but with his resolutions, and they did con- aia censure. The Senate was called | ton to declare by them, in substance, if botin words, that any otfer to compro- mise, &c, would be an overture to do that Which was contrary to the Constitution and dishonorable tothe nation. ‘The Pre- sdent had informed us in his message that he had done that very thing. He had of- ted to compromise, kc. The simplest tiles of logic justified a conclusion from eh premises that the President had done {act in violation of our honor, and had offered to consummate an act which was Wainst the Constitution. Men must have ed singular notions about what was ®was not a censure, who asserted that ere Was no censure in this. It was a hunciation of what had passed, in the of athreat if it stiould be done again. tat was the exact character of the ori- tal resolutions, and the candor of the tator from Indiana would compel him Wadmit that the very end and design he chiefly in view was to notify, to fore- ¥am the President of what he micht reck- ® upon, if he should accept from the Brit- Government his own offers to that Go- ‘erament for a compromise ; for the res- dlutions say to him, “ We distrust you; care what you do.” Mr. HANNEGAN said that was exact- his object. [In a note published inthe Mion,” Mr. Hannegan states that this t was given only tothe assertion that te President “should be careful how he Moceeded in futore.”] Mr. HAY WOOD said he knew he could -be mistaken. The language was too to mistake, and the motive too obvi- © escape detection. And was that &“censure of the President?” Was No insulting reference to what the dive’ had done?

The reports of committees were the first bu- siness in order this morning. A bill was reported granting lands ‘to the A bill granting lands to th.

The military committee reported a resalution the United States will be governed in regard to the interference of the powers of Europe in the affairs of the independent governments of America. The resolution was read for information, and embodies the principle of Mr. Monroe, as set forth by Mr. Polk in bis message, and dee!ares that the U. States will deem the interference of any [uropean power with the social or politi- cal affairs of the independent nations of Ameri- ca as dangerous to its own safety and will re-* sist it accordingly. Mr. Calhoun said that every senator must be aware, that, inthe present condition ofthe coun- try, this resolution was one of grave importance. It will, said Mi. C., be a matter for us to reflect ifthe resolution should be adopted, how fur we will be prepared to carry out the measures it will render necessary. stronger feelings than I do the improper inter- ference of foreign nations with the independent governments of this continent. Tlook upon the imtermeddling of the British and French gov. ernments in the affairs of Buenos Ayres as a gross outrage, But it is a question whether we are prepared to take care of all the repub- lies of South America. If, said Mr. Calhoun, we are prepared, the entire energies of the country must be put forth to accomplish it. The subject requires time. I am sorry that it is puttorth. It must have an unfavorable effect upon our foreign relations. — The declaration of Mr. Monroe had a mischiev- to the house the information in his possession relative to the tribes of Indians in Texas. | A resolution was also offered inquiring into the expediency of the erection of a marine hos- | pital at or near Pittsburg, Pa. | Mr. Ingersoll reported a resolution asking | the secretary of the treasury to report to the | some plan of a bill for restoring the constitu. | tional plan, recommended by the president, and | his information relative to the treasury laws of 1789, and the probable operation of the sub. treasury bill reported at the present session of A resolution relative ta the duties on coarse wool was also reported and laid over, Also a resolution calling for information as to the improvement of the ball of the house of representatives, Mr. Ashmun, of Mass. offered a resolution up- on the necessity of diminishing the corrupting influence of the executive of the United Siates.

We are approaching great events, and I am afraid we are not approach. ing them with that solemnity which they demand, I regret that the chairman of the committee on foreign relations had thought proper to in- troduce his resolution, and I hope he will not press it. Mr. Allen said he had not been without aAp- prehension that even this proposition night en- counter opposition in the senate, but he had not supposed that the mere introduction of it would meet with opposition. to enter upon the subject at this time farther than to make a single remark in reference. to what had fallen from the senator from South | Carolina. Mr. A. said that gentleman appeared to think that Congress ought to remain silent and leave | the President unsupported in the declaration he had made in his message on this important sub- Ject. What would then be the case? The President communicates certain facte and an- nounces the principle which ought to govern the U. States in the matter. Having addressed would be a proclamation to all the powers of Europe that the principle laid down is not re- cognized by the people of the U. States. The subject is before Congress under circumstances which will make the silence of Congress a. mount to a negotiation of the principle laid down by the President. gaa Mr. Calhoun objected to the manner in which the resolution had been introduced, being on the responsibility of the Chairman alone, and not emanating from the Committee on Foreign Relations. He thoughtthis was sufficient rea- son for not receiving it, All of the.

He would not say any thing about compromising below this line, but , he would say that our title to the whole was _ Clear and unquestionable. Me. Brinkerhoff of Obio continued the debate —defending our title to the whole of the terri- tory in dispute—advocating the giving of the hotice—and making many flourishes upon the _ trumpet of our own bravery,.and in favor of an- nulling the Convention. The speech was one of the extreme kind, though apparently Mr. B. | was not very fierce for war. LOCOFOCO CONVENTION. In- our last we gave the result of the de- liberations of this august body, so far as the selection of their standard-bearer is concerned. Green W. Caldwell, Esq., of Charlotte, was the Savored one; or, more properly, perhaps, the victimised one. We have tarned oar attention a good deal this week to the sayings and doings of ithat Convention, and must confess our surprise at some of them. It appears that-a most were abused at no measured rate. For example, Louis D. Henry, the President of the Convention, in his inaugural re- marks, declared that he had no more re- spect for certain distinguished Whigs, Daniel Webster, &c. &c. &c., than he had for “a parcel of sheep-stealing dogs.” — among its members; and that the Whigs ningh parallel. position by Preseeea ey the matter in ‘ in favor of ine 49th parallel of latitade.

He did wrong, also, in our hun. _ ble opinion, in refusing to submit the. maj. ter to arbitration. Nay, the only lauds. and how big with courteous dignity !—! ble act of hiisin the whole matter was that Louis D. Henry raises himself above the | character of Daniel Webster, or attempts to bring him down to the level of a sheep stealing dog! Verily, this surpasses eve- ry thing of the kind we have encountered. poor opinion, and although we would not | have wondered he should use such lan- guage in an ale-house or doggery, yet we were not prepared to hear such a declar- ation from the President of a Convention of sensible and respectable men. It is un- becoming a gentleman under any circum- | Stances, and most of all was it so at the No good can possibly | It will not help Democ- | racy, neither injure the Whigs: and we_ time it was made. grow out of it. would presume that Mr. Henry did not expect that Mr. Webster would challenge him for thus using his name. With all his vanity he would hardly suppose that Dan- iel Webster would even notice him.— Therefore, it was no manifestation of a | brave and daring spirit. But it was a manifestation of a violent and offensive spirit towards many virtuous and good | men ;'who, because they happen to be Whigs contrary tothe wishes of Mr. Hen- ry, he has no more respect for them than he has for “a parcel of sheep stealing dogs ;” and, as a matter of course, if he had it in his power, would treat them as he would treat “a parcel of sheep steal- ing dogs.” This is the spirit of the Con- ' vention which nominates Green Caldwell. We say this is its spirit, because that Con- vention loudly applauded Mr. Henry’s | speech. The Raleigh Standard says: “It is with peculiar pride that we unfurl this day the flag of Democracy, bearing upon its spot- less foldsthe name of Green W. Caldwell, | of Mecklenburg county, the Democratic candidate for Governor.” We suppose the “peculiar pride” here boasted of, simply means unexpectcd pleasum for it is well Mr. Wentworth of Tilinois addressed the House in continuance of the dele. He com. menced his speech by saying that he was for | the whole of Oregon or none ; that he was in | favor of settling the question now or never; and that he was for action and not for speaking. His wish had been to decide this whole ques. tion in one day, and he regretted therefore the disposition to speak rather than to act. The people were of the opinion that there known that Mr. Caldwell was never thought of until the Convention met, and found that Mr. Fisher had refused to ac- cept the nomination. We doubt not Green | Caldwell is equal to their best nag, but he is not so esteemed by the party; and if we did not believe that some interested Democrat had brought him forward » we was a good deal of humbug in this question. — It had been introduced into every political can- vass for twenty-five years past, that the whole of Oregon was ours—but when elections were over there was more of silence than action up- on this subject. Mr. Wentworth made some allusions to the Texas bill which had passed the House at the last session of Congress. He had voted for | annexation, and so had the western Democratic | members. Now he would not say that afy bargain had been made upon this subject, but the enemies of the Democratic party had said that if the South obtained Texas, they would not vote for Oregon. Was this true? He knew that the‘ two South Carolina Senators had defeated the Oregon bill at the last session of Congress. Mr. Holmes of S. C. called to order for al. | _lusions to the Senate in violation of the rule. | Mr. Tibbats, in the Chair, said the remarks | were not oul of order. | Mr. Yancey of Ala. called upon the member | from Hlinois to state whom he meant when he insinuated that there was a bargain. | Mr. Houston of Ala. called upon the gentle. | man to specify, as there were ‘some of us’ who designed to go for the notice. Such imputations | were not becoming, and it was due to all that the gentleman should particularize when he made such charges. Mr. Chapman of Ala. also called Mr. Went. worth to order for ‘his allusions to the South, and Mr. Wentworth speedily backed out of them. The external pressure was too strong for him, and he yielded to others, meaning to insinuate what he dared not assert. The House for the next hour was convulsed with laughter at the expense of Mr. Chipman of Michigan, who went the whole for ‘ manifest destiny, inevitable destiny,’ the whole of Ore- gon, and other things in proportion. He pro- mised that the people of Michigan would take Canada in ninety days, and if the people else- where did not like that they would surrender it and take it ninety days again. - ‘ The floor was given to.Mr. Cook of Tenp., <i e ination a sort of last resort. der Mecklenburg so glorious. should be disposed to think that’ his nom- But perhaps the editor does mean something when he says it is with “ peculiar pride,” &c.

Caldwell is of the sime County which gave birth to the bero of Orleans, to Ame- rican Independence, and to James K.

No doubt. the Locos will try to get up a breeze of this sori—such means afford them a “ pe- culiar pride” ; and triumphs by such, a pe- cular joy. | “ The flag of Democracy, bearing upon its spotless folds.” Do you really think, Mr. Standard, that your flag is spotless ? We read upon its folds “repudiation of honest debts ;” the violation of the Consti- tution by the annexation of Texas; Ex- punging ; the pocketing of bills to prevent their passage ; the New Jersey case ; an- ti-rent-ism; Dorrism ; and we also read up- | on it the names of Swartwout, Price, and Harris, with other distinguished purloin- ers; and we even sce upon it an army of blood hounds! for the Florida service.— | | Whig hornets to this day, and the most _that can be made of Mr, Caldwell is a-| guilty offer of compromise, and we are sorry the British Minister did not feel authorised to accept it.

This folly, this _rashness, this undignified conduct is the cause of all our apprehensions of war, and isthe thing with which the Whigs ate most displeased. Burton Craige, Esq., in a speech at the late Democratic Convention, in eulogising Mr. Caldwell, said—He comes from ld Mecklenburg—the Hornet’s Nest of the. Revolution, and I trust “he will sting Whiggery to death.” So it appears the Democrats expect Mr. Caldwell to play the Hornet, and “sting Whiggery to death” What a vain expectation. Although Mr, Caldwell may be a hornet—a “ bold and fiery” hornet—yet it would be monstrous to suppose he had a sting long and pow. erful enough to pierce through Whiggery and cause its demise. But the hornets of the Revolution were Whigs, and there arg Modern Democrat, so his stinging ope tions are not likely to answer the expec: tations of his friends. It was said in the Democratic Conven- ‘tion, that Green W. Caldwell, “pdssesses in a pre-eminent degree two traits of Gen. Jackson—love of Country and devotion to his friends.” Is that all? The old Geo- eral was a very d—1 to his enemies—how is Mr. Caldwell on thts point? Wee sin- cerely hope he differs from Jackson in this particular, at all events, apd even from Louis D. Henry, who doubtless would hang every Whig in the Country as he would a “sheep stealing dog,” if he badit in his power so to do. Snow, Hail and Wind.—On Tuesday night last we had a severe storm of wind, snow and hale. The wind blew very hard from the North about nine o'clock. But at ten, it became comparatively calm. On Wednesday morning the ground was found covered to the depth of one inch with snow and hale, and this surfaced over with bout half inch of ice, sufficiently strong to sustain the weight of a man. The boys put on their skates and swung along through the streets, (some hobbied, slip- ped and fell); whilst the gallant young bucks of the town dash about in every direction at wonderful speed in sleighs, accompanied by the ladies. The day wss pleasant, and most of our citizens spent * pleasantly.

The Whig Convention that assembled in this (iy, on Monday Jast, and adjourned on ‘Tues. | by aight, was, indeed, a most glorious meeting fgilant spirits. The number of Counties | gpesented, [42,] and the Delegates in atten. gue, Were More numerous, we believe, than | wo sny previous occasion of a similar charac. | w Our adversaries had vauntingly declared | ipforehand, that such was the deadness and athy among the Whigs, that they could not re a respectable meeting ; but the result lp falsified their predictions, and proven that he Whig spirit, always indomitable, still burns a brilliantly as when it fired the bosoms of our ious ancestors. In prcportion to the num. | ber of Delegates, we doubt whether any body werassembled in North Carolina, containing ecb an amount of talent as this body present. wh The Speeches delivered on the occgsion, yald vie in merit, with those of any political | uemblage in the Union ; and we never felt | pouder of our State, than when we jookedl ‘wad upon this imposing body, and marked the | geat and good men that had assembled, upon | ifew week’s notice, to bear testimony to the | talue of Whig principles, and to pledge them. wives anew to their maintenance and perpetu- ution.

A short interval elapsed, when id accordance with a previous report of the Committee, the Governor entered the Hall, and Was received with the most enthusiastic cheer- ig. He soon after proceeded to respond to the Wmination which had becn tendered, in a brief bat most eloquent and impressive Speech.— Without affectation, he promptly accepted the tall, and declared his readiness again to repr2- wat the Whigs as their standard-bearer, in the tming contest. And no one there, whatever lis polities, who looked upon his fine intellec. tal face, and heard his words of truth and sc- ss, could have failed to pay a silent tribute the dignity and elevation of his character— those attributes, which render him so deserved- han object of pride to his party and his friends ~or have resisted the conviction, that with such ' Candidate as Writiam A.

In the course of Mr. Badger’s remarks, fo show that the claims to the whole of Oreg had nct always been made by the present Dem\ ocratic party—even by many of the gentleme themselves, who were now clamoring for war. Mr. Badger read from a document, purportin Committee of N. C.” published Oct. 4, 1844, “ Great Britain wants but Texas to check and over- awe our commerce, to threaten our peace, and carry on her schemes of abolition and smuggling along a common Rememnber, she is jealous of the success of our Demo- cratic institutions, and that she views the United States as the only competitor wkose rapid growth in commerce and manufactures, is like to shut her out from a monop- oly of the markets of the world. At the North, she has Canada and the lakes for her armies and navies ; on the West, Oregon and her ancient allies the Indians, whom she has always used against us, and who are now to the number of six or seven hundred thousand hovering on our western border; there are her Islands in the West | Indies ; give her a controlling power in Texas, and WE | ARE COMPLETELY AT HER MERCY.” This address was signed by Louis D. Henry, Chairman, and twenty other leading Democrats of the State. Mr. B. while commenting on the admission made by these distinguished gentle- men, viz: “fon the north, she (Great Britain) has Canada, &c., on the west, Oregon, &c.,” was inquiring what new and additional title Great Britain had acquired to Oregon, or any part thereof, since the 4th of October, 1844, when these same gentlemen admitted that she had Oregon, when Mr. Henry, forgetting what was due to the occasion, and to a decent respect for the opinions and rights of bis cpponents, rudely, from the lobby, interrupted Mr. Badger, and persisted in his attempt to arrest the delib- erations of the Convention, until he was silenc- ed by cries of order and hissing.

Truth is more wonderful than fiction, — The creations of imag..ation as exhibited inthe most complicated mazes of romance, ate. surpassed by events of surprising in- t which illustrate the unspeakable ‘edness of God, and the care of his Prov- jdence over those who trust in Him. A striking example of the truth of this re- mark, is furnished by the incidents which marked the life of the Rev. Mr. Lehman- owsky, minister of the Evangelical Church formerly a Colonel in Napoleon’s army. On Thursday evening of last week, at the-request of many gentleman-who bad ailtendeéd his lectures on Napolean’s Cam- paigns,in the Rev. Mr. Ramsey’s Church, he narrated the story of one of the promi- nent events of his remarkable career, in connection with an account of the destruc- tion of the Inquisition in Spain, which was effected under his direction. Our brief notes of his narrative. for which only we have space, cannot do full justice the sub- jee | it is worthy of a permanent memo- rial, to remind the world of the devices of the Man of Sin, and.to illustrate the divine goodness. Mel. Lehmanowsky is a remarkable man, Though more than seventy years ald, his gigantic frame is still erect and wiggrous. [is gait and sprightly motions, he quickness in his eyes, hisgestures and oWer of his voice, all indicate that Still able, were it necessary, to re- »the. war-horse and cause his voice d from rank to rank, above the But thanks to Him who is to be Vins ere may be no occasion to re- horrid scenes of the battle- “We trust that none who have ‘the armor of the gospel, will be tempted lay it aside for the wenporis forged Gy Ambition and the lust of power to-control the destinies of the world. 4Col: L. said he was born in Warsaw, » in 1773, of pious parents, who ght bim in childhood to fear and honor » llis parents who were of the Lu- ebarch, gave him’a good ‘educa- © was graduated at the College.in y, atthe age of 16, and entered the study of Medicine and Surgery. e Of 17, his parents sent him to Presceute his professional studies, FS tO\MAN persons of distinction mong others, he had'a let- nye e» thro gh whose o> before rung in his ears-wit soldier. Shortly after he met the Surgeon of the Hospital, who, on learning that he had enlisted, said: * Yoang man, you will many a time repent this step.” ;|* What, am I a soldier of the Cross, and a | Soldier of France ?” We pass over various circumstances in this part of his history to notice a single incident. Ona Sunday a short time af- ter he enlisted, his company commanded by Nopoleon Bonaparte who was-then a captain, was called in due military or- At-the word of command, he said, the whole company kneeled down to be sprin- kled with holy water—but he stood up straight. Napoleon, thinking that he might not have understood the order, as it was a fresh recruit, pulled his coat, and told him to kneel down. The young sol- ‘Fall back in the rear, then,’ said the cap- tain. Col. L. said, ‘I then thought I will watch that man, for he respects my con- science.’ A short time after, Napoleon came to him, and asked him to what church he belonged, and told him that he need not attend the religious ceremonies of the priests. From this period (1792) he was in Na- poleon’sarmy till 1814, when he retired from the service. He was soon made an officer, (a fact, however, which he passed over in silence.) was with Napoleon in the campaign in Egypt, and at the battle of the Pyramids; was in the campaign of Italy, and at Toulon and Marengo. In Austria, Holland, and Russia, in all, eleven regular campaigns during which he was engaged in seventy-six pitch battles, and one hundred and twenty-six other engage- ments. He had been wounded and bruis- ed from the crown of his head to the sole of his feet; sixteen horses had been kill- _ed under him. When on the sands of E- gypt, under a burning sun, without a drop of water—alter draining the last moisture that could be drawn from the stomachs of camels, killed for the purpose—he had opened the veins of his arms, and drank his own blood, to slake burning thirst.— On the retreat of Napoleon's army from Moscow, he lived as others did who sur- vived the horrors of the campaign, twen- ty-one days on the flesh of dead horses for meat and the bark of trees for bread, with snow water to drink. bare-foot and al- most destitute of clothing, in the midst of the snows and ice of a severe winter. We must pass over in silence many in- cidents of most thrilling interest, which occurred during ais various campaigns un- der Napoleon. After the battle of Wa- terloo, in which Napoleon would have tri- umphed, but for the defection of one of his officers, Leimanowsky was imprisoned, tried, and condemned to be shot. The narrative of his escape from prison, fiting and breaking an iron bar in his window. and his suvsequent escape from France and from Germany without ‘passpcrts, and in the very presence of military spies searching for him, is a remarkable story. This we must pass in silence, and also his entrance into the ministry, and his la- bors in the sacred office, during which he has organized fourteen churches—in or- der to give his account, (which will be read the second time with interest.) of the DESTRUCNION OF THE INQUISI- TION OF SPAIN. In 1809, Col. Lehmanowsky was attach- ed to the part of Napoleon's army ; which was stationed in Madrid. And while in that eity, said Col. L., l used to speak free- ly. among the people what | thought of the Prieststand Jesuitsyand of the Inqui- sition, Jt had been déereed by the Em- peror, Napoleon that the Inquisition and Monasteries should be suppressed, but the decree, he said—like.some of the laws en- acted in this ‘country,, was* not executed. Months had passed away and-the prisons of the Inquisition had not-been opened.— One ‘night about 10 or 1 F o'clock, as he was walking one of the streets of Madrid, two armed meu sprang upon him from an al- ley and made afurious attack. He instant- ly drew his sword, and put himself in a uiet life atthe | eld, was awakened ‘in giv ste ly, and he ved |) at 117 neously, an SEneey, Sonn ake work.

The troops as oie “were granted, "and | proceeded, (said Col: Li) t uisition, which was Situated about five miles fron the city. It was surrounded with awall of gteat strength, and defended a com- p 0 soldiers: “When We arrived atthe walls, a I addressed one of the sentinels, and summoned the holy fathers to surrender to the imperial army, and open the gates of the Inquisition, The sentinel stand- ing on.the wall, appeared -to enter into conversation for a moment with some one within, at the close of which he presented his musket, and shot one of my men.— This was a signal of attack,and I order- ed' my troops to fire upon those who ap- peared on the walls. It was soon obvious that it was an unequal warfare. The wails of the Inquisition were co- vered witl the soldiers of the holy office ; there was also a breast-work upon the wall, behind which they kept continually, only as they par- tially exposed themselves as they discharged their muskets. Our troops were in the open plain and exposed to a destructive fire. We had no cannon, nor could we scale the walls, and the gates successively resisted all attempts at forcing them. I could not retire and send for cannon to break through the walls, without giving themtime tolay a train for blowing us up.

Presently the walls began.to tremble, a breach was’ made, and the imperial troops rushed into the Inquisition.— Here we met with an incident, which nothing but Jesuitical effrontery is equal to. The In- quisitor General, followed by the father confes- sors in their priestly robes, all came out of their rooms, as we were making our way into the in- terior of the Inquisition, and with long faces and their arms crossed over their breasts, their fin- gers resting on their shoulders, as though they had been deaf to all the noise of the attack and defence, and had just learned what was going on, they addressed themselves in the language of rebuke to their own soldiers, saying, “* Why do you fight our friends, the French?” Their intention, no doubt was to make us think that this defence was wholly unauthorized by them, hoping, if they could make us believe they were friendly, they should have a better opportunity in the confusion of the moment to | escape. Their artifice was too shallow, and did | not succeed. I caused them to he placed under guard, and all-the soldiers of the Inquisition to be secured as prisoners. «~We-then proceeded to examine all the rooms of the stately edifice. We passed through room after room, found all perfectly in order, richly furnished with altars | and crucifixes, and wax candles in abundance, | but could discover no evidences of iniquity being practiced there, nothing of those peculiar fea- tures which we expected to find in an Inquisi- tion. We found splendid paintings, and a rich and expensive library. Here was beauty and splendor and the most perfect order on which my eyes ever rested. The architecture—the proportions were perfect. The ceiling and floors of wood were scoured and highly polish- ed. ‘The marble floors were arranged with a strict regard to order. ‘There was everything to please the eye and gratify a highly cultivated taste ; but where were those horrid instruments | of torture of which [ had been told, and where those dungeons in which human beings were said to be buried alive?

In other cells, we found living sofferers'of both’ sexes—and of every age, from three score fifteen years —all naked as when brought into the world— and all-in chains.: Here were old men and aged women, who hadi been shut up for many years. Here too were the middle aged, and the young man an dthe maiden of 14 years! The soldiers immediately went to work to re- lease the, captives from the chains, and took from their knapsacks their overcoats and other clothing, which they gave to cover their naked. They were exceeding!y anxious to bring them to the light of day—but Col. L. aware of the danger, had food given to them, and brought them to the light as they were able to ‘bear it. We then proceeded, said Col., L. to explore Here we found in- struments of torture of every kind which the ol. L. here described four of these horrid instru- The first was a machine by which the victim was confined, and then beginning with fingers, every joint in the hands, arms and body, was broken, one afier another, until the victim died. ‘The second wasa box in which the head and neck of the victim was so closely confined hy a screw, that he could not move in any way. Over the box was a vessel, from which a drop of water a second fell upon the head of the vic- tim—every successive drop falling precisely on the same place on the head, suspended the cir- culation in a few moments, and put the sufferer in the most excruciating agony. The third was an infernal machine Jaid horizontally, to which the victim was bound, the machine being placed between two beams, in which were scores of knives so fixed, that by turning the machine with a crank, the flesh of the sufferer was torn from him in small pieces. The fourth surpass. Its exteri- or was a beautiful woman, or large doll, richly dressed, with arms extended, ready to embrace Arqund her feet a semicircle was drawn.

But Col. De Lille was not so ready as my- self to give up the search, and saidto me ‘ Col- onel, you are commander to-day, and as you say, so it must be, but if you will be advised by me, let this marble floor be examined. Let water be brought and poured upon it, and we will watch and see if there is any place through which it passes more freely than others.’ I re- plied to him, ‘ Do as you please, Colonel,’ and ordered water to be brought accordingly. The slabs of marble were Sarge and beautifully pol- ished. When the water had been poured over the floor, much to the dissatisfaction of the In- quisitors, a careful examination was made of ev- ery seam in the floor, to see if the water pass- ed through. Presently Col. De Lille exclaim- ed that he had found it. By the side of one of | these marble slabs the water passed through fast, as though there was an opening beneath. All hands were now at work for further discov- ery. The officers with their swords and the soldiers with their bayoncis seeking to clear out the seam and pry up the slab. Oth- ers with the buts of their muskets, striking the slab with all their might to break it; while the priests remonstrated against our desecrating their holy and beautiful house. While thus en- gaged, a soldier who was striking with the but ofhis musket, struck a spring, & the marble slab flewup. Then the faces of the Inquisitors grew pale as Belshazzar when the band-writing ap- peared on the wall; they trembled all over.— Beneath the marble now partly up, there was a stair-case.

There were fathers who found their long lost danghters, wives were restored to their husbands, sisters to their brothers, and parents to their children ; and there were some who could recognize no friend among the mul- litude. ‘The scene was such as no tongue can describe. . When the multitude had reti:ed, Col. L. caused the library, paintings, furniture, &c., to be removed, and having sent to the city for a | wagon load of powder, he deposited a large | quantity in the vault beneatl the building, and _ placed a slow match. in connection with it.— All had withdrawn at a distance—and in a few | moments there was a most joyful sight to thou- | sands. ‘Ihe walls and turrets of the massive structure rose majestically towards the heavens, impelied by the tremendious explosion—and fell back to the earth an immense heap of ruins. | | Observer. week, the Pupils of the Deaf and Dumb School were brought down by their Teachers, to see Peale’s great picture of “ The Court of.

It must be recollected that the Secretary of War fought some himself dur- ing the last w@—and that if the President did yt volunteer and was not drafted to go to the kkence of New Orleans, like many of his com- mdes, if was no fault of his, becausé he left his fetidence at Columbia and went away to Mur- feesborough to complete his studies ! But what course wil] the President now re- tommend Congress to take on the subject. of our ifairs with Mexico! Remember that in his mes- sage, at the opening of the session, afier an- nouncing the appointment of Mr. Slidell as min- ister, he used the following significant language : ‘The minister appointed has set out on his mission, and is probably by this time near the Vetican capitol. le has been instructed to bring the negotiation with which he is charged foe conclusion at the earliest practicable peri- od, which, it is expected, will be in time to ena- heme to communicate the result to Congress luring the present session.

On Safurday, in the House of Re- Genes pe "ae N.O: Dany Tene, Tuesday, January 13, 1 p. m. LATE AND 2 MEXICO. The Mexican schr Julia, Zalduondo master, arrived here this morning from Ve- ra Cruz, which place she left on the 30th ult., bringing us papers from that place to the 29th and from the city of Mexico to | the 33d ult. The Julia also -brought J. Tilghman Hoffiman, Esq., bearer of Des. patches to our government, from whom , we learn that Paredes was certainly on | his march to the city of Mexico, and that | | our Minister, Mr. Sliddell, was still there. | From the Vera Croz and Mexico papers, | we have hurriedly gleaned the following important news: The Monituer, of the 21st ult. says that the Supreme Government has appointed Gen. Bustamente Commander-in Chief,and Gen. Rorregon his second in command, of the Army to oppose Gen. Paredes.* That | paper says the government is indefatiga- | bly working to quell the revolt, and that it | has already taken the necessary measures | to put the Capital in a state of defence, and given out 3000 guns to be distributed | _among the citizens. | | On the 21st ult. the Senate concured | | with the Government in giving Dictatori- | _al powers to President Herrera. E| Siglo | says that Paredes had seized upon the Public Treasury of the Fair at San Juan, | which had been committed to his charge. | El Veracruzana of the 24th, says that on | the 23d, a salute from the Castle of San_ Juan Ulloa, under the command of Cas- | sanova, announced the first movement of the Army and Navy, in favor of the proc- lamation of San Louis Potosi, by Gen. | Paredes, and that it was immediately se- | conded by the garrison of the place, at whose head is the brave Laudero, with the exception of a part of the battalion Si- gero, numbering about 100 men; who left their barracks with their officers, refusing to join their companies. This body, as they were marching out, fired a volley on those who remained. killing a captain and ten veterans, and wounding three others.

THE TWO WINDMILLS—A FABLE. BY S. G. GOODRICH. Two neigkbors living on a hill, Had each—and side by side—s mill. The one was Jones—a thrifty wight— Whose mili in every wind went right. The storm and.tempest vainly spent Their rage upon it—round ifwent! E’en when the suinmer breeze was light, The whirling wings performed their flight— And hence a village saying rose— “ As sure as Jones's mill it goes!” Not'so with neighbor Smith’s—close by—. Full balf the :ime it would not ply— Save, only when the wind was west, Still as a post it stood at rest. By every tempest it was battered, By every thunder-gust ’twas shattered. SeThrough many a rent the rain did filter, And fair, or fout, twas out of kilter, Md'thus.the saying came at last— Smith's mill is made by folk’s that fast.” iaw_who ean read this riddle right?

He washed his own shirt and stocks, mend. | ed and patched his own breeches, paid for |his tobacco by odd jobs, and laid by his | wages.

Fourth Lecture on the “ Romance of the Revolution.” delivered before the Will- vam Wirt Institute, on Thursday,—- Dec. 18, 1815. [ This Legend was introduced by the Lecturer, as a contrast to one of his il- lustrations of the Hero Woman of the Revolution, which we will give next week. The time of this legend was the early part of the war, in 1776, during Arnold’s com- mand near Fort Edward, on the Hudson river. ] One summer night, the blaze of many lights, streaming from the windows of an old mansion, peerched yonder among the rocks and the woods, flashed far over the dark waters of Eake Champlain. In a quiet and comfortable chamber of that mansion, a party of British officers, sitting around a table spread with wines and vivands, discussed a topic of some in- terest if it was not the most important in the world, while the tread of the dancers shook the floor of the adjoining room. “es, while Was gniety ¢ i | : ; Yes, while all. was gaiety and dance | demeanor, but still for the space of a mi- and musie in the largest hall of the old breeze blowing in their faces through the opened windows. here this party of British officers had assembled to discuss their wines and their favorite topic.

And in that moment—while the door way was thronged for fair ladies and gay officers, attracted from the next room by the debate—as that young Refugee stood with one hand resting upon the little pile of gold, his ruddy face grew suddenly pale as a shroud, his blue eyes dilated until they were each encircled by a line of white enamel, he remained standing there, as if frozen to stone. cried the Colonel, starting up in alarm, “do you see a ghost, that you stand gaz- ing there, at the blank wall?” The other officers also started up in a- ldtm, also asked the cause of this singular : .. bute or more, the Refugee Captain stood mansion, Whose hundred lights glanced far | there, more like a dead man, suddenly re- Se 5 . | 2 ’ 2 2 7 Ss z over the waters of Champlain—here in Nealled to lita than a living beine . . . ° ~ a . this quiet room, with the cool evening | , = = That moment past, he sat dowh with a cold shiver; made a strong effort as if to _cammand his reason; and then gave ut- | wonderful invention, which is destined to anni- | terance to a @prced laugh. | | | t “As for me.” said a handsome young | ; : : . ae . nq oa 7 1 . , +ste wild for me to give an intelligible idea of: Ensign, “To will match the voluptrousy “Ha, ha!

Onthe contrary, most of the journals treat this claim very much as if it had not been made with se- riousness. They seem to regard it in the light of one of those comprehensive allegations re- sorted to in pleading, by which, fur example, a litigant claims 500 acres of land when he hopes to get only 100. the British claim, it does not seem to have been thought worthy of consideration. Let us recall a few of their expressions : The Times, not by any means (as our neigh- bors of the Whig seem strangely to suppose) the exponent of the Ministry, but nevertheless, the most important paper in the Kingdom, and the best indicator of public sentiment, remarks upon reading Mr. Polk’s narratve of the nego- tiation, that “the President takes great credit to himself for having made an offer that be ac. _ knowledges to-be less than what the British Government ‘has repeatedly declined ;” and ri- dicules his apology to “his democratic suppor- ters” for this proposal. The samé journal says :-“ Thatthe United States should think to strengthen their claim with strong Janguage. is in conformity. with many examples.” The re- jection of the:offer of Mr. Polk, which hadbeen “already twice refused,” appears in the.estima- tion of the Times to.be nothifig more than what was to have been expected ; and,.in another ar- ticle, quite as important as that which we have published, a partition on principles “of equal ” js approved, but it is declared that the Americans have no “ exclu- sive right of sovereignty.” The Chronicle, the organ of the Whig party, treats of Mr. Polk’s recommendation as “insane counsels ;” but does not, believe-that Congress will make provision for giving them effect. cessary, consequence. ridicule in the city.” The John Bull, another important journal, ob. | tingency ! SErves > “ The eventful continuance of peace depends upon two contingencies on!y—the one, whether Congress will grant to the President the necessary powers for carrying out his policy ; the other, whether the British Govern- will not take place, but we feel Jess assured respecting the course which Congress may pursue.” This extract expresses, in our apprehension, concisely and correctly, the general views of the | vey an idea of the activity which prevailed dur- press, and, we presume, of the government.

The impprtance of this bears the more forcibly upon my mind at this season of the year, from the fact, that any improvement in the grave-yard, or around the graves, will prove of no avail if the fence is not first put ap. The labor of love, and respect for departed friends, such as planting about their graves young trees and flowers, to decorate and beauti- fy their bumble beds, will all be lost ; those beautifal walks that adorn the yard, be ruined entirely.

The National Intelligencer, of the 3d, says: The two Houses of Congress are proceeding with great deliberation in ref- | on the plains of New Orleans; and if the ven- erated patriot who now sleeps in peace and | honor in the shades of the Hermitage—he who refused to be buried in the tomb of a king— could be permitted to give us his advice, he would say, ‘go for Oregon, and for the whole of Oregon. I must be excused, Mr. Speaker, for speaking of one who was my friend, one in whose mansion I was, when a child, an inmate, who often, when I was sleeping, has drawn the covering overme. From that neighborhood I emigrated, and finally settled, with my wife and children, on the frontiers of the Missouri, expos- ed to those Indians who are west of the Missis- sippi.”’ What a lucky thing it was that Squire Simms emigrated to the frontiers of Missouri!

The only effect of agitating the question has been, we believe, to ex- cite apprehensions in the minds of the peace-loving part of our people—consti- tuting, we trust and believe, a large ma- jority of the whole—and thus to repress commercial enterprise of business, with the result, already, of a loss to the coun- try—a detraction from the common stock of wealth and prosperity—which we have rated, at fifty millions of dollars. The House of Representatives yesterday received four new propositions and heard one speech on the subject, and, finding it- self without a quorum after being little more than two hours in session, spent the rest of the day’s sitting in trying to ad- Journ, accomplishing that task ata little | alter three o’clock; having, in the course of the sitting, refused, by a decisive ma- jority, to agree to a proposition to close the debate on Monday next.

Of the ultimate fate of the propositions relative to the Oregon question depending in either House of Congress, variant and discordant opinions are, we observe, ex- pressed in the newspapers published out of this city, both editorially and by their Washington correspondents. It is not pos- sible certainly to predict what will be the specific action of Congress upon it. But, whatever may be the final action of the House of Representatives in the case, we now feel entire confidence that the Sen- in relation to Oregon which would stand in the way of a peaceful and honorable adjustment of the difference existing be- tween the Governments of this country and Great Britain on this subject.

In order thaf our friends and the public generally m know the condition and prospects of this Ins: Trustees have directed the p information.

It contaifis 96 Toonis adopted to the various wants of such aseminary.. The rooms are large and airy, the access easy, and all designed to combine utility with comfert. The ample grounds around the College (about 40 acres) will. be g0,enelosed:es to protect the inmates from inter- ference Or-molestation. Phe finati¢ial condition of the College has been rigid- ly seratunized by a.cuinmittee composed of ministers and laytuen ; and the result of the investigation has Sstrength- ened:the Trustees in their former conviction of the sound- Ness of the corporation and the success of the enterprise. . The fends obtained trom the mainistezs of the North Car- Qlina€ onference, added to the available means already possessed, warrant the Board in assuming the debts now due; and remove alt doubt of their ability with ease ina little time t© cancel every obligation. ‘The Board have farthermore taken upon them the responsibility of sup- plying the College with the necessary furniture, which will reqptire at least $2000. This they have done in fall ¢onfidence that the friends of the College will meet an application to their liberality for the means, with pleas- tre, when convinced that their donations will not be friy- Olously expended and that their gifts will ensure perma- néticy to a Seboo! such as will meet their own wants and continde to diffuse irs blessings to “ePhe Collegezas advertise: In the selection of a Faculty the Trastees regard them- selves pecuiarly fortunate. The President, Me. Lea, is A native of the “ Old North State,” and a graduate of onr owa University.

Mrs. Lea and Miss Judson are weil known, experienced teach- ers,in their several departments. dy wiil have charge of the boarding, and direct in all matters relauing to the comfort.and health of the pupils. The position of Mr. Blake, one of our most experienced and honozed ministers, as Chaplain and Professor of mor- al science, will give ample security for wholesoine reli- gious insiruction on the cne hand, and relieve on the oth_ erany fears that might exist of a Partizan effort to train the narrow,lines of sectarian peculiarities. Thas it-awill,be seen that as guardians of this Institu- tion, the Trustees have done all that they were in duty bound to do, and in the best manner to attain the end for which. for se vera! years, they have been tolling. They have nothing more to promise but the diligent supervi- sion of the various important interests committed to them, without any relaxations in their efforts to make the Col- -lege-ali.you would have, it-10 be—a nursery of sound learning and true piety.

C., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13,. eS the 2d of the:above articles met on the 3: in- stant, Gen. Tornel was chosen President, and Gen. Almonte and another, Secretaries. Gen. Paredes was then chosen President of the Re- public. His election and his acceptanee were communicated through a committee. A com- mittee of three was appointed to draw up the oath to be administered to the President. Two of them reported in favor of an oath in the us- nal form, to observe the existing laws, &c. ; bat Gen. Bustamente was in favor of conipelting the President to. swear ‘to repel the invasion of the United States.’ After a long discussion the Assembly assented to the report of the ma- jority, and, upon this ground, that the oath de- manded by Gen. Bustamente would be tanta- mount to a declaration of war, and that it was heyond the competency of the Assembly to de- clare war. . . On the 4th inst. the oath was administered in great state. The President made a brief dis- course, to which Gen. Tornel replied, and all hands proceeded to the cathedral, where a Te Deum was celebrated. The President’s dis- course is patriotic and commonplace, and makes no allusicn to the foreign affairs of the republic. ‘The Assembly adjourned the same day. The form of the oath which the President finally took is as follows : ** You swear to God to sustain the independ. ence and integrity of the national territory a- gainst any foreign aggression whatever; and the Republican, popular, representative system ; and the plan of administration of the Republic, agreed to by the Act of the Army on the 2d of January.” The Gen. Bustamente, who took part in this Assembly, was not the ex-President of that name. Both he and Gen. Herrera were invi- ted to take part in the proceedings, but indig- nantly refused. The following is the composition of the Cab- inet of Gen. Paredes— General Almonte, Minister of war; Senor Luis Panas, Treasury Department; Senor Cas- tillo y Lanzas, Foreign Affairs, and Senor Be- cerra, (Bishop of Chiapas) of Justice, &c. Such is the Cabinet according to a private letter of the 13th December. Gen. Tornel re- fused the portfolio of Foreign Affairs and Senor Gordva refused that of Justice. Of these ministers, two have represented Mexico near the Government of Washington ; we allude to Gen. Almonte and Senor Castillo. set _—The Freneh Chambers assembled, December 27; and the session was opened a gio ee ihe usual formalities hy the King in per- se S A BIS family.

Nothing is said in the papers in relation to the feelings of Paredes towards this country, but verbally we learn that he is very hostile. El Monitor, of the 2d inst. contains an arti- cle upon the critical situation in which the Cali- fornias are placed, with the view of arousing at- tention to the subject. The latest dates from this city which the Ve- | ra Cruz editors had received were the 29th No- vember. ‘They infer from them somewhat strangely that the Cabinet of Washington was somewhat alarmed at the menacing aspect of our relations with England, and inclined to re- cede froin its extreme pretensions in regard to Texas—so far even as to restore the new State to Mexico, — flattering unction !’ Grave complaints are made in a communica. tion from Gen. Mejia, of the 30th Nov., that there are numerous Mexicans regularly engag- ed in furnishing the American troops at Corpus Christi with supplies. Of the $80,000 in the National Treasury the day that the capitol declared for Paredes, $25,- 000 was ordered by Herrera to be sent to the Army of the North. Whether it was so sent appears doubtful.

The meeting convened on the 16th inst.,in the large ‘hall attached to St. Paul’s Cathedral, and was attended it is said, by more than_two thousand of the most respectable and influential of the We copy the fol- lowing report : Honorable James Fraser was called to the Chair, and Captain Malden requested to perform the duties of Secretary. The Hon. Chairman, after a few preliminary observations regarding the ob- ject of the meeting, as previously convey- ed by the notice, called upon those gen- tlemen who were prepared with motions relating thereto, to enter the business of the evening, when the following resolu- tions were adopted without a single dis- senting voice in the vast assemblage : First. Moved by John Wilson, Esq. se- conded by Arthar Buckly, Esq. “That judging from recent events in the neighboring republic, it is not improb- able that a disunion of the American States is not far distant; and as this meet- ting doubts not that those favorable to true liberty, both civil and religious, would gladly avail themselves of an opportuni- ty of dissolving a connection with men of habits and feeling diametrically oppos- ed totheir own, that the approaching rup- ture affords a favorable occasion of secur- ing them an alliance with our peaceful colony.” : Second. Moved by Archibald Home, Esq. seconded by Edmund Drenon, Esq. “ That, impressed with this conviction, it becomes our imperative duty to hold out the right hand of fellowship to our breth- ren in the Northern States, and to assure them of our ardent desire to cooperate with them in effecting a connection with an empire where the advantages of liber- ty, restrained within due limits, are fully enjoyed, and yet where the lawis neither trampled under foot, nor made subservient to the vox popult.” . Third. Moved by James Curlew, Esq., seconded by Wm. Davidson, Esq. “That a correspondence be opened, with such States as, from ther geographi- cal position, and the tone of political feel- ing. generally evinced by them, would be likely to appreciate such a change.” A “Bill has ‘been-introduced into the Pennsylvania Senafe providing for the gradual extinguishment of the debt of that State. Its provisions are thos, stated by the Harrisburg correspondent of the Phil- adelphia Inquirer, who thinks the bill good and practicable, except the eighth section : The first section provides that the pre- sent collateral inheritance tax he doubled to 5 per cent, and when the claimants are non-residents of the United States to 10 per cent. 2d.

Napoleon Cowhided.—Mr. Clason, said | to be connected with the Evening Mirror, inflicted personal chastisement, with a dog-whip, on the Editor of the Herald, about 1 o’clock this afternoon, at the corner of Maiden Lane and Nassau street. The whip broke after four or five blows, and the parties separated. The provocation | was an article inthe Herald. accusing the | Mirror of levying * black mail” on Tem- | pleton, the vocalist, and alleging that Cla- | son furnished funds to keep the Mirror | alive. There is no doubt but the cow- | | Fourth. Moved by Stephen Hall, Esq.. seconded by B*** M’Croken. Esq., who addressed the meeting at considerable length, pointing out the many advantages both in a commercial and political point of view. to be derived by such a step, as well to the Canadas as to the States, which would be thereby annexed to the British Empire. “ That the opinion of this meeting, the boundary between the British possessions and the American States best calculated toestablish and maintain permanent peace on this continent, would be a line com- mencing at the Atlantic with the city of New York, extending along the Southern boundary of the State of Pennsylvania, continuing the same along the Northern { and Missouri, and thence following the | 43d parallel of latitude to the Pacific O- cean.” The Montreal Transcript of the 24th ult. thus alludes to affairs in the United States in connection with the appointment of the Earl of Cathcart as Governer of the Province : The appointment of Earl Cathcart to I ever heard precisely how many pounds of a | the government of this Province has been, ‘in all probability, suggested by the uncer- tain nature of the relations at present ex- isting between Great Britain and the Uni- ted States. Although we by no means ap- prehend a war. we can perfectly ander- stand that the appointment of a man pos- sessing the military reputation of Lord Cathcart may be useful in more ways than hidee deserves all he got on this occasion, | and more besides ; though the immediate provocation in Clason’s case was small, compared with what many others have suffered from the same quarter. however, object entirely to this mode of | obtaining redress.

The surgeons were discharg- ed without bail on the first examination by ma- | gistrates, as there was no law to hold them.— The second of the surviving combatant was ar- rested without sufficient autborfly, fur there was, no affidavit on which to hase the warrant under which he was taken. And, afier his discharge, while an affidavit and new warrant were being prepared on which to arrest bi again, he made his escape.

When the question of national coin was started, Mr. Lyon objeeted to the ea- ule, because he was the king of birds, and therefore unsuitable for a republic. Judge Thatcher, who was always characterized by good natured mirthfulness, replied, that perhaps it would be as well to take the geose for our }emblem; for that animal bad nothing majestic | in her deportryent, nor could high rank among | birds occasion any offence ; moreover, the gos- | lings would be a very convenient stamp on the ' tenpenny pieces and fip-penny bits.

Permit me to call your atteation to a series of ele- mentary works on Natural History, prepared by Dr. Rus- chenberger, for the use of schools, and published by Grigg & Elliott, Philadelphia. These are what they are truly styled, the “ First Books of Natural History.” They are the opening door to a department of knowl- edge, high as heaven and broad as the universe itself; but which has, until these our times, been sealed up against the enquiring mind, as if God had reserved “to us and to our children,” this vast field for intellectual en- joyment and mental expatiation. No exercise of the intellectual faculties is more calculated to give correct perceptions of God, the author of all things, than a study of his works. What we call natural productions, are but organizations in the material world, which are di- rectly the handiwork of that universal, all pervading All bills, then, on the Milton Branch, dated | absurd enough?

It _is our opinion that a majority of the Presses in the State are in favor of the measure ; but with one consent they seem to have determined that | the question shall be freely discussed pro and _con, and that no partisan bias shall be given to | it; and the People, we infer, acquiesce in the _ Wisdom of this course, and hence they have not thought proper to express an opinion on the question in their public meetings. Neverthe- less, the subject is occupying the minds of the | people, and they are preparing themselves for | intelligent action when the time fur voting shall ‘arrive ; and as the weight of argument is evi- dently in favor of the measure, we think the | people will so decide. ‘The “tone of the press,” therefore, as well as “the silence observed on selves next spring. The same informant | the subject at the various (political) meetings lately held,” we view in a very different light to that in which the editor of the Independent sees it—we think them decidedly favorable to a Penitentiary. ‘Though the Editors of the papers in the State observe so much silence on the subject, their columns do not. Many well-written communi- cations have appeared, which have been exten. sively copied ; and in this way the question can be placed before the people, with less danger of its being mixed up with exciting political topics.— Hills.

The ‘Squire, who prided him- selfon his sagacity in detecting villains, now found use for his tongue. With a loud sneering laugh he said: ‘ Stranger, you are barking up the wrong tree if you think to catch me with that are Yankee trick of yourn. He proceeded in that in- human strain, for the * Squarr’ was pow- erful, and few dared displease him. The youth felt keenly his disconsolate situa- tion, and in atone of deep and despairing anxiety, he inquired, ‘Is there none who will receive me?” ‘Yes; I will” cried a man among the crowd; ‘yes, poor sick stranger, I will shelter you’ Then in a lower tone, he added, | know not wheth- er you are deserving, but I know that you are a fellow-being, and in sickness and want, and for the.sake of Him who died | for the guilty. if’ not for your sake, will I be kind to you poor young stranger.’ The man who stepped forth and_prof- fered a home tothe yoath was Simon Da-| vis, an elderly man, who resided near | Crosby, and to whom the latter Was a) deadly enemy. Unele Simon, as he was called, never retaliated, and bore the per- | secutions of his neighbor without com: | plaint.

Tle was! conveyed to the house of’ his benefiretor, | and a physician called. Long was the | struggle between lite and death, Though unconscious, he called upon his mother | and sister almost incessantly to aid him, When the youth was laid upon his bed, and she heard him calling for bis sister, | Lucy Davis Wept, and said to him, poor, sick young man, your sister is far distant, | and cannot hear you, but I will be your | sister. Well did this dark-eyed maiden | keep her promise. Day and night did she watch over him, except during the short intervals when she yielded her post at his bedside to her father. At length the crisis of his disorder ar- rived—the day that was to decide the question of tite’or death, Lucy bent over him with intense anxiely, watching every expression of his features, hardly daring to breathe, so fearful was she of waking him from the only sound sleep be hAd en- joyed for nine long days and nights. At length he awoke, and gazed up to the face of Lucy Davis, and inquired ‘ Where ami? There was intelligence in that look. Youth anda good constitution had obtained the mastery. Lucy now felt that he was Spared, and bursting into a flood of irrepressible, grateful fears, rushed out of the room. It was two weeks more before he could sit up, even fora short time.

He remembered having placed it there the morning before he reached Brent’s Prai- ‘rie; but in the confusion of the moment, that circumstance was forgotten. He ex. amined it, found everything as he left it. advanced in life, and it matters not how or 1 U you. where I pass the few remaining days o my existence. I have a home beyond the stars, where your mother has gone before me, and where I would have long since; joined her, had I not lived to protect my child, my own, my affectionate Lucy.— The weeping child flung her arms around the neck of her father, and poured her tears upon his bosom. _ ‘We can be happy still,’ said she, ‘for I am young, and can easily support us both,’ A new scene followed, in which anoth- er individual was principal actor. J shall leave the reader to form his own opinion of it and barely remark, that at the close, the old man took the hands of Lucy and young Wilson, and joining them said, My dear children, I cheerfully consent to your nion. Though poor, with a good conscience, you can be happy. I know Charles. that you will be kind to my daughter, for, a few nights ago, when you thought no hu- man ear could hear you, I heard you fer- vently implore the blessings of Heaven upon my gray hairs, and that God would | reward my child for all her kindness to Taking down his family Bible, the | venerable old man added, it is a season of affliction, but we are not forsaken. Let us look for support from Him who has pro- mised to sustain us. He opened the Book, and read; * Although the fig tree shall not_ blos- som. neither shall frnit be on the Vines: the laborers of the olive shall fail, and the fields yield no meat, the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stall; yet will I rejoice inthe Lord; I will joy in the God of my salvation.” “ Charles and Lucy knelt beside the ven- erable old man, and while he prayed, they Wwept—tears of grateful emotion. _It was a sleepless, but not an unhappy night to the three inhabitants of the neat and cheerful dwelling they were about to leave and go—they knew not where. J was then that the young Wilson learnt | the real value of his money. By means, of it he could give shelter to those who had kindly reeeived him when every oth- er door was closed upon him. All night long he thought of the forged patent. There were a few words dropp- ed by Mr. Davis which he could not dis- miss from bis. mind—that Crosby had writ- ten to the real owner of the land, and ob- | tained a promise of a deed. It is now time for the reader to become | acquainted with the history of the young | stranger. His father, Charles Wilson, senior, was a merchant of Boston, who had acquired an immense fortune. At the close of the | last war, when the soldiers received from | the government a bounty of 100 acres of land many of them offered their aio to Mr. Wilson for sale. Finding that they were resolved to sel] them, he concluded to save them from sacrifice of their hard earnings, and purchased at a fair price, all that were offered. In three years no small portion of Military Tract came into his possession. On the day that Charles be he gave him a deed of the principal part of his land in Illinois, and insisted that he should go out and see it, and if he liked the country, settle there. Wishing him to become identified with the people, he recoinmended his son, on his arrival jn the State, to lay aside his broad életh and dress like a back woodsman. In compliance with this su young mun assumed a rud dress, so inappropri came of age, zeStion, the ate to his appearance and manners, as to excite suspicion that he had some motives for concealing his real character. On the morning of his son's departure, Mr. Wilson received a lett er from a man This discovery nearly restored him to ’ and too often, Ptad passed freely around, in Sighting. 2¢ DIS is by no means the picture of all the settlements of that early period, but that it is Btapbically true of many, none eo the old settlers will deny. But to my Se dahiik f a Saturday afternoon 1819,a young man was seen approaching, with slow and Weary steps, the house or ther the distillery of Squire Crosby, S eesiee an obscure settlement on We Miltary Tract.

Mr. Wilson had given the tract to Charles, and putting the letter and certificate in his hands, enjoined upon him to deed it to the Writer, agreeably to pro- mise, on his arrival in Ilingis.

From the New York Courier and Enquirer EXTRAORDINARY TRANSACTIONS We need hardly say that it has never heen the course of this paper to make a- aye even the most distant, allusion to the private affairs of any family. bat the neigh- borhood of this city has recently beew the scene Of one of the most extraordinary oc- currences which ever took place in any community. which we cannot refrain from noticing ; and we allude to it) now only for the sake of recounting the termina- tion, Which Was brought abont inthe most singular and happy manner, Some few weeks ago, a wealihy Span- ish gentleman, a native of Matanzas, resi- ding with his family on Staten Island, consisting Of a wife and three children, eloped from his residence in company witha Jesuitical priest, and a beautiful female whom the priest had introduced into the faanily. taking with him the chil- dren also. Jefore he went away, he drew from his bankers in this city all the money.in their hanes, about 370.000, and was supposed that the fugitives had gone to Boston for the purpose of taking pass- age in the steamer for England ; but up- on enquiry, if Was ascertained that the whole party had taken passage for New Orleans, A plan was at once laid for the purpose of recovering possession of the children; and as it was learned that the charge of larceny would justly lay against the priest, A Warrant was got out for his arrest, accompanied by a requisition on the Governor of Louisiana from the Gov- ernor of this State. The brother-in-law and sister of the de- serted wile, accompanied by a police offi- cer of tried zeal and intelligence, started for New Orleans, by land. their sole ob- ject being to get possession of the children by fair or foul means. Fortunately they arrived at New Orleans before the ship in which they had reason to believe the fugitives had sailed, and a boat was em- ployed to watch for her, on board of which were the officers and brother-in-law, while * Acarriage was kept in constant readiness, with the sister hatted and clothed ready for the return journey. When the vessel hove in sight, on board of which it was supposed the fugitives had taken passage, the officer and broth- er-in-law, the latter in disguise, were to goon hoard, and if they were on board, theofticer was to arrest the prieston the charge of larceny, and it was expected ‘that the recreant hushand would leave his paramour and the children on board of the vessel, while he accompanied the priest to the Police officer. Accordingly on boarding the vessel, the party were found, and the priest was at wee arrested by the officer, and put on board the boat to be conveyed to the city. Their plans, however, were frustrated by lle husband failing to follow the priest, and the brother-in-law still disguised, re- mained on board, watching his opportuni- ly to seize the children. _ When the vessel arrived at the wharf Mthe city, the husband placed his para- Mour and children in a carriage and drove ‘othe Police Oltice, while the brother-in- law With his sister, sprang into the carriage Which was kept in waiting, and followed Pa i ll y , OO 10 iy ar them.

She has left a bereaved husband /and two sinall children (one but twenty-four hours old) who must keenly feel their deprivation in her untimely demise. She had for several years been a regular mem- ber of the Evan'!. Lutheran Church; althongh from the nature of her last illness and the rapidity with which it progressed, she conversed very little on her future pros- pects, yet from her life of obedience and faith which are the best criteria by which to judge, we trust she now sweetly rests in the paradise of God. On Monday, the | 16th inst., her mortal remains were committed to the earth in the burying-ground at Union Church to await | the resurrection of the just.

The fair stran- fer, however, walked daily to the foun- tain. modestly cast down ber eyes when gazed at, and seemed unconscious 6f all but her own horrors. About this time, ajor Fitzconnell appeared apon the bu- wscence. He was a tall handsome man, of easy address, and polished manners, j who seemed to regard all around him with Yan air of every polite unconcern, He was announced as an officer in. His Britantic Majesty’s service, and brother to Earl Somebody. in England. It was reported ethat he had large landed possessions in “the West. He did not appear to seek so- ciety, but was too well bred to repel any eivilities which were offered to him. The gentlemen were well pleased witb his good sense, his knowledge of the world, ‘and the suavity of his manners. but they had little opportunity of estimating his qualities. Major Fitzconnell and Miss Simper met by accident at the fountain. The officer, who had just filled bis glass at her ap- proach, presented it to the lady, who, in sipping the transparent element, dropped herhandkerchiet. ‘The gentleman, very Ballantly picked up the cambric, and re- Yored it to the owner—but the blushing damse|, abashed by the easy attentions of ® elegant stranger, in her contusion lost her ridicule, which the soldier gracefully placed on her wrist, with a most respec- fable bow. A cour'esy on one side, and another bow on the other, terminated the civilities of his meeting. The gentleman pursued his Walk, and the lady returned to her eham- ber. That Miss Simper felt duly sensible @ the honog of having elicited three wrace- ful congees from the brother of the E ig- ith Earl, cannot be doubted 3; nor can we Gppose, without injustice to that gentle- Man’s taste, that he saw with indifference the mantling blushes which those atten- ons had drawn forih; certain it is how- fer, that as they separated in opposite Clions, neither of them was seen to fst “one longing. lingering look behind.” ‘So did mine,’ said the gentleman, ‘ but ‘This isa very ungenteel affair said Mrs. UWightlver, +] never heard the beat of itin all my born days! said a shop- keeper’s lady. * How funny! eried one young lady. * Tow shocking ! exclaimed another. * Brad. that’s a keen, suet ind! said one vemlemian.

Mr. King is sadly too thin-skinned ; and he bas not hettered his position by appealing, through Mr. Guizot, to the public against the stric- tures of anewspaper.

RE APPEARANCE OF Dr. PUSEY. The celebrated Dr. Pusey, at the expi- ration of his three years’ suspension, ap- peared on Sunday last in the pulpit of the Cathedral Church, of Oxtord ; and so great was the anxiety to hear him, that the strag- gles at the door for admission savored more of the theatre than the house of prayer. The attendance exceeded all pre- vious experience. Great numbers came purposely from London, and the reporters of the daily press were sent down to place VIG nan toe eM me ea | vince of Constantine.

The interval appears to have worked no change in his views, for | Mr. Polk’s message relative to war and Texas. He had felt surprised at the lan- guage used by the President in his mes- sage to Congress. and had considered it his duty to claim in reply for France an en- tire independence of action. "He exam- ined the commercial reasons which had induced France to recognise the indepen- dence of Texas in 1883, and rendered her anxious to maintain it in 1845. litical considerations had been of a still greater weight. There were at present, he said, three powerful nations intent on aggrandizing beyond measure their terris, States. France’ was not extending her dominions. In Africa she had made a conquest it was her honor and interest to preserve, but the bounds of which she would not overstep. It was of the high- est importance to France that those three nations should balance each other’s pow- er, and that none of them should obtain a preponderating. influence. She was consequently interested in protecting the independence of the American States.

When properly introduced, they nearly double the value of the mill, and in quantity of work generally far exceed the most sanguine expectations of the owners, many of whom are gentlemen distinguished for their sci- ence and practical skill, who have attested to the value of this improvement. The wheels are more durable, and more easily kept in order, when properly put to- gether, than the common flutter wheel. They will save one-third of the water, and run well in back water when there is a head above. The speed of the saw is increas- ed to more than double the strokes per minute. The price of an individual right for one pair of wheels, is $50. We refer, among others, to the following gentlemen, some of whom had the wheels in operation 12 months or more, and from many of whom we have received certi- ficates highly approving of these wheels, and stating that their saws, with this improvement, cut 2500, 3000, 3500, and even as high as 5000 feet a day, according to the head of water. ust election. > We are authorised to annone John L.

It is supposed by those conversant with | our relations with Mexico,that the government | of that country are about to make a hostile de. | nonstration against us, if they have not already | done so. It was in view of this state of things heing likely to occur, that the Secretary of the | Navy. a fornight since issued orders to the sev- eral navy yards to vet all our vessels in readi ness forthwith aud toconcentrate them in the Gulf of Mexico.. ‘This I informed you of at the tine. ‘ There was rather an unusual bustle to-day inthe War Department, consequent upon the | peeption of these despatches, and Gen, Scott, | who it seems had not been consulted previously | upon any of the movements of our army in Texas, was sent for in haste to-day by the See. ‘retary of War. He was with him in consulta. tion at his office until a late hour this evening. English Despatches.—The Boston Adverti- vt of Wednesday, gives the following pira- graph :-—= “[tia certainly reported that a messenger with despatches from the British Minister at Washington, passed through this city a day or | two since, fur Portland, where he would char- | lerone of the steamers which ply in summer | between this city and the Kennebeck, This geamer would leave Portland on Monday even- ing for Halifax, whence the steamer Margaret, | the relay boat of the Cunard tine, would be de- spatched immediate] ygto Eneland. Tf this re- prt be correct, thes® despatches will proba- bly reach England some days in advance of he packet ship Patrick Henry and the pilot boat Wm. Jr. Romer, from New York.” And yet another Express.—-The Boston Times of Wednesday says: “We learn froma very reliable source that afast sailing clipper bailt schooner sailed from Portland, on ‘Tuesday evening, for Liverpool. She wae chartered from the owners by Mr. Pakenham. the British Minister at Washington, and carried ont despatches fiom him by a spe- tial Messenger, who left Washington with them on Friday evening.” Important, if True.—There is a_ flying rumor abroad that Me. Pafton, of Peters- burg, Virginia, has invented a machine for navigating the air, after years of in- cessant application andstudy — It is a ba- loon, and can move 50 or 60 miles an hour. Connected with it is a battery, from which he can discharge from one to ten thousand ounce balls a minute. He has likewise brought to perfection a submarine hatte- ty, to go 10 or 12 miles An hour and with which by means of a torpedo. he can blow upa hostile fleet in thirty minutes.

A quarter of an hour had elapsed since - our departure from the fort. when sudden- lv the command was given in Spanish to wheel to the left, leaving the road; and as we did not understand the order. the officer himself went in front to show us the way, and my companions followed without taking any particular notice of the change of direction, To our left ran a musket hedge, live or six feet in height, at right angels with the river St, Antonio, which flowed at about a thousand paces from us, between 39 or 40 feet bigh, and | of which banks the one onthe nearer side | of the river rose nearly perpendicularly out of the water. We were marched a- long the side of the hedge towards the stream, and’ suddenly the thought flashed across us, “ Why are they taking us in this direction /”?) The appearance of a number of lancers, cantering about in the fields on our right, also stardled us; and just then the toot soldiers, who had been inarched between usand the hedge, chang- ed their places, and joined those of their. comrades who guarded us on the other hand. ing of this manoeuvre, the word was given to halt. It came like a sentence of death; for at the same moment it was uttered, the sound of a volley of musketry echoed across the prairie. We thought of our comrades and of our own probable fate. “Ineel down!” now burst in hash ac- cents from the lips of the Mexican com- mander. No one stirred. Few of us understood the order, and those who did would not obey. muskets at our breasts. Even then we could hardly believe that they meant to shoot us; for if we had, we should assur- edly have rashed forward in our despera- tion and, weaponless though we were, some of our murderers would have met | their death at our hands. On!y one of our number was well acquainted with Span- ish, and even he seemed as if he could not comprehend the order that had been given. He stared at the commanding of- ficer as if awaiting its repetition, and we stared at him, ready, at the first word he should utter, to spring upon the soldiers. | But he seemed to be, as most of us were, impressed with the belief that the demon- stration was merely a menace, used to in- duce.us to enter the Mexican seryice.— ae threatening _ gesture and. drawn sword, the chief of the assassins-again ¢- ABA GT ts. om REBES - Se Before we could divine the mean- | The Mexican soldiers, who stood | . . | at about three paces from us, levelled their | through the prairie guiding himself, as best he might, by sun and stars, and striv- ing to reach the river Brazos.

Daring the week ending January 31, (last week) there was stored at M>. Wyeth’s ice-houses, sizteen-thousand biocks of ice, each three feet three inches square. and twelve to thirteen inches thick, and each weigh- ing one thousand six hundred and siaty pounds —making an agyregate of thirtecn thousand two hundred and eighty togs. ‘This was all traus- ported an average distance of a quarter of ainile, and elevated to an average height of thirty-six feet. It was all ribbed, by which process it was relieved of about an inch and a quarter of snow ice—the blocks reduced to a uniform thick. ness—and two raised ribs or ridges, lefi on each block, which serve to prevent them freezing to- ether in the ice-houses.

Augusta Chronicle.—Jas. M. Smythe, Esq., formerly editor of the Southern Courant, is now associated with the editors of the Augusta | Chronicle in the management of that paper. MARREBD By the Rev. Samuel B. Rice, on the 24th inst., Dr. MarceLius WHITEHEAD, of Salisbury, N. C., to Miss Vireinia G. Coteman, of Amherst, Va. Departed this life, on the 20th of last month, after a short but severe illness, and in the 45th year of her age, Mrs. MARY WOOLWORTH, wife of Mr. Aaron Woolworth. By the death of this lady, who was a mem- ber of the Protestant Episcopal Church, a most painful void has been made in the family circle, in which she discharged with faithfulness and unusual activity the du- ties of a wife and a mother. Aware that her disease was dangerous, she sought, and it i¢ hoped she found, consolation in that religion which she had protessed in her life. If she bad a desire to live, it was for the sake of her family for whom she felt all that deep solicitude which maternal affection alone can comprehend. But Christ was her hope; and in the possession and enjoy- ment of it, she left her bereaved partner and her now | motherless daughters to mourn the loss of their best earthly friend. To them,as well as to the aged mother, who in two short years has followed to the grave two beloved daughters, and to the lJarge circle of her friends and relatives, this afflictive dispensation speaks in a voice at once loud and solemn: “ Therefore be ye also ready; for in such an hour as ye think not, the son of man | Why may not a Penitentiary. be a source of revenue to North Carolina, as wei! as other States?

We /understand that a Caucus was held in a back _room of Mr. J. B. Kerr's tavern on ‘Tuesday last, by sume of the leaders of the party, by which Walter Ps Leake, Esq., of Richmond county was selected as their Candidate. Mr. Leake was recommended by a writer in the Standard. How far the people of thie county | will sanction this caucus nominatiog we are ‘unable to say. It seems to usa litile strange that a party which manifests such a holy horror j) at Caucuses, When adopted by their opponents, should now descend to adopt the same course. It may be alleged that they had not time to call a meeting. This excuse will not avail them, for it was just as easy to call a meeting ia the | last Jeffersonian as to publish the Communica. tion from the Standard recommending Mt. Leake. Come on gentlemen with your Cav. caus candidate, we thinkgMr. Graham can lay him as cold as a wedge.@ But will Mr, Leake accept?) Hardly.—Charlotie Journal. We see that Walter F. Leak, Esq., hae been ‘nominated by a meeting of bis political triends /in Wadesborough as a suitable candidate in opposition to Gov. Graham. We have not | heard whether he accepts the nouiination P. S.—We learn that the paper containing the printed resolutions of the meeting, (va call- ed,) created great surprise in Anson, and even in Wadesborough, where the mceling purports to have been held. There are probably halfa dozen persons belonging to the party iu Wades borough, and even some of them, we learn, were first informedeof these “ big duings” by their arrival in the Locofuco papers. It is be- lieved that exactly four persons were present on this tmportant occasion !— Fay. Ob. A Democratic Candidate in the Field.—A writer in the last Register informs us that the (democratic) “ boys” about Raleigh held & | meeting on Wednesday and resolved io bring the name of James Shepperd before the Cea- tral Committee as a Candidate for Governor. A Mr. Disbrow seems to have acted as leader _ of the papa and he it was that proposed the name of Mr. S. It appears that trouble entered the camp pending the deliberation of the meet- ing. Mr. McRae opposed the passage of the resvlutions—a voice cailed him to order—ano- ther exclaimed “ nobody wants to hear you you defeated Mr. S’s nomination for Congress. Mr. McRae was finally so disturbed in his re- marks that he had to shake his fist at Mr. 8's friend to restore order. The “ boys” wert anything but harmonious,” from all accounts. Milton Chronicle.

Then we behold a man. who, in “* Common Sense.” had led a nation on to freedom. endeav- ‘oring with his ribald “ Age of Reason,” to darken our homes with that vilest of. all superstitious, the superstition of infi- delity. Paine’s life in Paris, the orgies of the French Revolution, the fall of Robespier- re, were depicted with inimitable skill.— Here Mr. Lippard introduced a beautiful defence of the Bible—indeed, one of the most beautiful pieces of quict feeling and uupretending pathos ever delivered before a Philadelphia audience. The death-bed of Paine, where, alone, friendless, wifeless, utterly desolate, the aged Deist laid himself down to die, with “no mildly beautiful face of Jesus to bend over the bed, and smile Immortality in his closing eyes,” closed this beautilul illustra- tion.— Lectures by Lippard.

The article in the Washington Union, (on which we commented on Friday.) toreshadowing the intended sacrifice. by the Administration in Washington, of our Snowing Worms.—The following state- ment is contributed to the Congregation- al Journal of Concord, N. H., by the Rev. I. S. Davis, brother of the late Mayor of Boston. It details a marvellous circam- stance, if indeed the whole matter be not a case of optical delusion : give us Oregon, is drawing out remarks | on all sides. The Washington correspon- dent of the Courier and Enquirer, writes The article in the Union of last evening headed ‘a war for Oregon preferred to a reduction of the Tariff” has attracted ve- ry general attention. It purports to be in reply to an article in the Baltimore Pa- triot. but its perusal leaves an irresistable impression on the mind that this Govern- ment have it in contemplation to sacrifice the protection of our industry, and accom- modate our tariif to British interest for the purpose of securing the whole of Oregon.

I would say farther, that there were no trees near, from which the worms might have been shaken, and if there had been & the worms had been on them, they woald all have been frozen, for it had been very cold. and the ground was frozen hard be- fore the snow fell.

This I do not believe, but regard it, on the part of the Union, as a very bold trick wherewith it hopes to succeed on the one hand, in its free trade schemes, by which it hopes to concliate the South, and on the other, in its pretensions to the whole of Oregon by which the West is to be secured, and Expenses of War.—The venerable Al- hert Gallatin bas added to his valuable Letters to the National Intelligencer, on the Oregon Questionan Appendix in which he enters at considerable length upon a ealculation.of the probable annu.l expen- ses of War with England, and the resouf* ces for defraying them. From the best data which could be obtained, he esti- mates the whole annual expenses ef.such a War at $65,000,000. Adding $ 000 for other expenses, the wholes supporting the Government wold. tee the enormous sum of $77.000,000;%" War would reduce the annual revénbe from the customs one-half, and the whole revenue from that and all other rces he thinks would not exceed $14,600,000,> This would leave to be provided for By taxes and loans the sum of $63,000,000 annually. a Polk.” DEBATE IN THE SENATE. The Oregon Debate advances in the Senate with a calm and measured pace ; it is also conducted, latterly at least, ina ‘members, worthy of a high deliberative body and of the deep importance of the matter under discussion. But what is of more interest than all this to the country, is the commendable spirit which has, for | some days, marked the debate. Leading Democratic members, especially the three last who have spoken, have. by the tenor of their own speeches, rebuked the in- temperate tone of some who preceded them, and bave avowed themselves the antagonists of “the whole or nothing” doctrine, the friends of amicable negotia- tion, of fair compromise, and of honorable peace. May such sentiments continue to characterize the debate, and finally lead to the happy adjustment which these gen-- tlemen so independently espouse !— Nat. Intelligencer.

T: Wena, Esq. ‘= eee emcees PENITENTIARY QUESTION. ® b 1 c | 6 Executive Orrics, Raleigh, February, 1846. ‘By the 4th section of the “act concerning a Pennentiaty,” passed at the last session of the Genera] Assemb)y, the Governor was required too “W Cot re'spotide nce with the Executives of the several States, in which Penitentiaries | “are now established,” with a view to obtain “ such statistical information, in relation to the , profits and expenditures of those Institutions, | sinee the year 1833, may as in his opMion be | wecegssry for the information of the people, whosevote is to be taken on the adoption of that . B98 of punishment, at the election in August » and to cause the same to be published in | . hewspapers of the State previously to the ~ election.” ‘A circular Jeter, embracing the necessary in- quiries was accordingly prepared, and a copy | -#Patto the Executive of each State and Terii- stony of the Union, during last Autumn. Prompt seek caistacions replies were ina short time re- ceived, froin several of the States, and among them, some of those most distant from us. But, e» it is a source of regret that from others, in which | «the system is known to exist, no intelligence “has been obtained. Having delayed this publi. cation longer than was desired, with the hope of procuring the returns of the year 1845, which has been in part realized, and waited until there is no reasonable ground to expect additional in. formation from offieiat’sources, the undersigned presents the following as the result of his in. quiries aud researches.

In the case of Duncan, the Su- preme Court awarded a new trial upon the ground that the Judge below admit- ted the record of Underwood's conviction to be read in evidence against Duncan before final judgment was pronounced against Underwood.

ENGRAVINGS .—There will be four engravings each year,executed carefully ; and what is of more importance, accompanied with ample biographies, that may stand as a part of the history of the coontry.

Onone occasion a party of Aus- ‘trian hussars being in the city of Cologne, a captain of that regiment strolled into the cathedral, where, falling into conver- , sation with one of the officiating clergy— a canon of the cathedral—he put. to bim the following query: “ What isthe differ- ence between a priest arid a dorkey ?”— The clergyman, unwilling to commit him- | self by any verbal answer, merely shrag- | d up his shoalders in’ a negative-man. | “Ah! ah!” exclaimed the captain, | “ITknew you couldn’t tell; it is this: the donkey wears the cross on his shoulder | by nature, and the priest by profession.” , The canon, faintly applauding the joke, asked in return, “ the defference between an Austrian oflicer of hussars and a don- key lide the captain declared his inability to tell, After considering a few minutes, riest replied, “ Nor can I, for I seive no difference whatever !” Spectral Vision.—The Boston Medical Jour.

A moment's reflection wall show the disad- vantages of. this ; for it has.also been found necessary to reduce the pages of that Journal from 112 to 80 a month —a redaction to which neither we nor our réaders aie willing to come.. We have always issded 112 pages, and expect occasionally to find it necessary to print 12K in one number. This month, it will be seen, we have given that number of pages, being the same amount with Black- wood. Certain it is, that it is entirely impossible to cre- ate and sustain a truly able and national work—such as a Whig Review must be—dealing comprehensively with great subjects, either within the space of 80 pages, or, if with more pages at the Democratic price of $3. We should preter to stop the Review. The cash system and payment.in advance, must be urged on our subscribers, it being the only way that a periodical can be efficiently sustained. REDUCTION OF POSTAGE. A greatitem of expense is saved,in the reduction of postage. The postage of the Review. is not half the for- mer amount. : OF lt is earnestly requested of every one willing s@be interested in this design, especially Whigs, to obtain-as many subscribers as possible, transmitting them with their places of residence, to the Editor in New-York, through the postmaster. If each would only procure, or be. the means of procuring, one sudscriber—and many could ea- sily obtain a number—it is seen at once that most impor- tant aid would be extended to this Review with a ‘ittle trouble, and some service, we believe, to the great inter- esis of the country.

He is met hy a large. full-faced, florid complexioned man, dressed in a broadbrimmed white hat. This occurs at all hours of the day. The spectre recedes from - him as he advances, and near the front door is lost in air. He assures us that he takes plea- sire in looking his intangible vision full in the eye—examines the color and cut of his gar. ments, and now regards him as an old, familiar acquaintance. The gentleman is not conscious of having defective vision. It is evident that a morhid action takes place in his brain, through its connection with the optic apparatus—and that the spectre is reproduced by Jaca! causes | existing. ot +he-gate, Which cannot yet be ex- plained. Our Departed Friends.—It is a beauti- ful thoaght that when our friends die, they-are not wholly absent from us in this world, but that they sometimes linger pd their old accustomed haunts, and the companions they still love here. This consoling idea is finely dwelt upon in the following stanzas, quoted from the Ports. mouth Jeurnal: Forget not The Dead, who have loved, who have left us; Who bend ‘o’er us now from their bricht homes above ; But believe, never doubt, that the God who bereft us, Permits them to mingle with friends they still love. | Repeat their fond words, and their noble deeds cherish, Speak pleasantly of them who left us in tears,— The thread is less worn by | From our lips their dear names other joys should not per- ish, While Time bears our feet through the valley of years.

[Much laughter. ] Mr, Allen (rnuch excited:) With the British ! {Much excitement and conversation here (as, indeed, throughout this entire (ne MS: Senator takes scene} prevented the Reporter from healt™ ing ali that Mr. Allen said.) Mr. Hannegan wished the. Senate to no- tice that thongh the Senator from North Carolina had written his speech, he had hot printed it, so that other Senators inight have itto refer toin reply. It was not to be found in any of the papers. Mr. Haywood. I desired that, for fear of mistakes; and it seems I was right; lorone of the papers, in its brief account omy remarks this morning, has said of my speech that it was a speech in favor of arbitration. Mr, Hannegan said it was quite imma- terial whether the Senator from N. Caro- lina gaye a direct answer to Mr. H's in- qiry or not. The Senator had said that there was no meaning in language, no ‘ruth in man, if the President had any where committed himself to the line of of degrees 40 minutes. Mr. H. would Say, in turn, that there Was neither mean- ing in language nor truth inman if he had Not socommitted himself. and that in lan- Buage strong as that of the holy book it- ‘elf. Before the Baltimore Convention Met he stood already committed to the Whole of Oregon up to 51. degreess 40 min- Ules before all the world. Mr. H. woold 80 back tothe year 1844, and call the Senator's reply to a committee of the eens of Cincinnati, ‘hemingnirics re- ‘red to the annexation of Texas; but, “replying, Mr. Polk volunteered opinions: fice of the @pief Magistrate. They both preferred another; but he was happy to see that Mr. Polk had won his way so fast in the regard of the Senator as to in- duce him to volunteer his defence against the attacks of men who never made any. But Mr. H. would here say that if the President had betrayed the standard of the Baltimore Convention to 1ts enemies— he would not do as the Senator from N. Carolina had threatened to do—turn his back upon him—the President would care but little if they both turned their backs upon him—but he would denounce him as recreant to his own avowed principles —recreant to the weighty trust contided to his hands—recreant to the generous contidence of the American people. Mr. H. would not on that account abandon his principles, nor abate one jot or tittle of the demand he set up to the whole of Oregon. He would speak of those who did, in the language of truth and fearless- ness, The Senator from North Carolina haa undertaken to give to the Senate the lan- /guage of the resolution of the Baltimore “Convention on the subject of Oregon.— He understood him as professing to read it as it stood: if that was what he pro- fessed, what he did was unworthy of a Senator. Mr. Haywood said that. in reply to this, he would read to the Senator a part of Mr. Breese’s speech: and he quoted a passage from that speech. Mr. Hannegan, resuming, said there was a great difference between this, as explained by the Senator, and the resolu- tion as adopted at Baltimore. He would read the resolution as it was. Mr. H. here read as follows: “ Resolved. That our title to the whole of Oregon is clear and unquestionable ; that no portion of the same ought to be eeded to England or any other Power ; and that the re-occupation of Oregon and the re-annexation of Texas, at the earli- est practicable period, are great Amert- cun measures, Which tnis Convention re- commends to the cordial support of the Democracy of the Union.” This committed the Democratic party to the whole of Oregon—every foot of it. Let any Senator rise in his place, and tell in what quarter of the Union the names of Texas and Oregon had not flown, side . by side, upon the Democratic banners.— Wherever Mr. I]. had beeu, it was so.— “Texas and Oregon—Oregon and Texas— ; always went together. Did the Senator from North Carolina’ flatter himself that he could win the ap- plause of the Democratic party, and blind the eyes, as he seemed to think he had, itiekled their ears, while he withheld from | them the substance of what they were ‘contending for?

And that most ex- excelent Senator (Huger) had afterwards | told-him, that he had voted in the nega: tive because it was suggested to him that unless hé did so the civil and diplomatic but on further conversation and consider- tion he-wished to move a re-consideration of the vote, but his friends would not con- sent that it should be done. Inthe House of Representatives hut four out of fifty | Southern Democrats had voted against the bill. These were the reasons given to him why he should not distrust the South on the question of Oregon; the re- sults were now manifesting themselves; and let the speech. just concluded by the Senator from North Carolina show whe- ther or not he was justified in his distrust. The Senator put language in the Presi- dent’s mouth which Mr. H. would here undertake to dény: not that he appeared He only de- fended the right: and, personally, he would man in the country than of the greatest. puted to him. If the statement ot the Se- | nator was true, and the President meant | what the Senator understood him to mean, , then he was aninfamous man.

What was this but deliberate- ly and wilfully deceiving the country. If this was true it must soon come to light; and then what must be his fate but dis- _grace!? The story of his infamy would be circulated from one end of the land to the other, and his perfidious course would /sink him in an infamy so profound, in a damnation so deep, that the hand of re- surrection could never reach him. A trai- tor to his country so superlatively base need hope for neither forgiveness from God nor mercy from man. not if the Senator from North Carolina was charged with missives from the Pre- sident; or whether (as he should suspect | from the dogmatical style Mr. H. some- times displaved here) he nade these as- Setvions “on his own responsibility.” , Mr. Mongum here called Mr. H. to or- ene Mr. Hannegan Immediately apologized, saying that, if he had used language that was disrespecttul to the Senate. it had not ‘been his intention. He would not know- ingly forget for a moment the respect duc to the body and what he owed to himself. He would endeavor to reply in the spirit which the Senator from North Carolina so repeatedly professed, declaring that he meant nothing personal while he used the plainest language. The Senator had told them that the country had been agitated from one end to the other for the sake of “ putting small men into large offices.” Mr. H. had seen such things before to-day.—* Small men in large offices!” And the country agi- tated for an end like this! Mr. H. had seen small men in large offices. There was an old proverb which said that men who lived in glass houses should not throw stones: it was true to the letter. Mr. H. might turn on the Senator and reply, that he had far rather be a small man seeking a high office, than be a supple subservi- ent tool, bending before the footstool of power and considering it honor enough to run from the back stairs of the palace, on errands to win the favor of a great man. Mr. H. would be the last to show to Europe such a spectacle as the relinquish- ment of all Oregon north of 49 degrees, and the acceptance of a fine commercial h the bonus of free trade. Free trade, Mr. H. said, he dearly loved, but it never should be bought by him with the territory of his country. It was outrageous in any—and in a Western Democrat it would be treason— qhoraltreason of the deepest dye. To sur- treaty wil "tegard to Oregon also; and this While Jy mistaken.

The*speech of Thiers in the Chamber of Deputies, attacking the foreign policy of the Go- Pe aoneny produeed a great sensation in France. And well it might—for it touched the Ministry of & sorvé point and 1s itself a masterpiece of its : ‘The coolness and self-possession of this orator give prodigious effert to the forceful work- of the vigorous intellect. The debate in the, Chamber. which ealled forth this speech | from.Thiers arose upon that portion of the mes- ¢ of the President of the United States re- int the interposition of France in the af. ig ot Texan annexation. Let us quote briefly from his exposition of the course of the ministry in that business : _ In the question of Texas, we might have said to England: * You cannot require that, in or- der to preserve a ha!ance of power in America, we should renounce our oldest alliance, and our friendly felations with the United States.”— | There is not a sensible man in England that would have contested your right not te meddle in the question. ‘Phere is nut a sensible man who would have disapproved of your not doing so, and you might have acted with perfect ree. dom.- [Hear, bear.] But to make this reason. fing admissible, I am obliged to suppress two facts—the sight of search and the Pacitie.

A quarrel with an English missionary, whose | amie I wil] not pronounce, was followed by a dabberabic concession—that of an indeinily to the man who roused the natives against us. All this gave you a great deal of annoyance and trouble, which might have heen devoted to | the affairs of Greece and Syria, and which might have enabled you, in the Texas affajr, to Wave followed the impartial policy of France. In short, matters have been so conducted, that on the side of England, as well as ours, com. | plaints are made of sacrifices without compen. | sation.. - You believe that France bas been made subordinate to England, but in England the re- vergeis helieved. So many faults were com- mitted on both sides, that last year the good un- derstanding between the two countries had be. | come estremely difficult; and [ am convinced that. if you asked any well informed man out of doors, what made France leave its proper line | that of impartiality in respect to the U.

The Enquirer of Saturday has a letter de- scribing the storm at-Old Point Comfort; or | Fortress Monroe, on the Ist and 2d instant.— It commenced on the evening of the 1st and , continued all night. The morning of the 2d, _ it snowed, rained, and hailed, atthe same time. | The tide continued to rise fram sunrise till one o'clock, at which time but one vast sheet of | foaming water was to be seen outside the Fort. | The waves, says the writer, appeared to be try- | ing to beat down the Fort and sweep everything | before thean. No spot of earth from the Point | to Mill Creek and Hampton could be seen, and _even the Rip Raps were obscured by the great | waves. All the houses outside the fort, in which labor they were engaged froin 9 A. M. till two P. M., wading in the water to their | waists and sometimes their necks. No lives _ were lost—all were sheltered inside of the Fort |—though the scenes of the rescue were | terrific and perilous. =... | On the night of the 2d, it was apprehended | that unless the wind changed, the Fort would be inundated by the water driven through the ‘port holes. Watches were stationed to give | the alarm in that event; but fortunately the | wind changed, and the height of the tide there. | fore was diminished, ‘The change, says the writer, called forth heartfelt praises and thanks to God from the people inside-the Fort. The sea broke over into the canal, The _ water battery was afloat, and the large gun at | the locks, weighing seven tons, was distnount- | ed and the carraige (worth $600) swept away ! | Timbers for a new building for Mr. French of _ the Hotel, were swept off, but a portion recov. ered. The granite wall around the canal was igreatly damaged. “The old bathing-houses | Were washed away (an event many of the sum. mer visitors at-Old Point will be glad to learn.) | A schooner and a sloop were capsized near the Point—it was not, known whether any lives were lost. On the 2d (Monday), a boat with two men in it was seen approaching the Fort, and assistance was sent down ; but by the time | those who went to assist reached the beach, the | hoat was discovered bottom-up und nothing i could be seen of the men. A family of six per. sons had perished upon the beach. | The tide was higher by three feet than it has | been since the Fort was built. The amount To government prop- | of damage is thus stated ; | erty 87.000 ; property of Mr. French $1.000 ; | other private property $2,000—in ull $10,000. | It must have heen, indeed, an awful time at | Old Point. The writer says, [on ‘Tuesday /morning] “the Point presents an almost un. | imaginable effect of the furious billows. ‘There are huge piles of wood, timber, trees, plank, all kinds, of dead animals, water, mud, &c.” R. Compiler. Dreadful Effects of the Storm.—The Norfolk Courier of Saturday afternoon says;—" We learn thata very respecta- ble resident of the vicinity of Notes Island, (Currituck county.) N. C. arrived in our city this morning, who states that the ef- ,enced on that part of the coast. He says | that 50 families were drowned on Nott’s | Island, and 1000 head of cattle destroyed. | The wild fowl suffered most severely— wild geese might be taken in almost any quantity—some killed, others so much crippled as to be easily seized, being un- able to escape.” Rebuilding.—The weather during the | Winter has heen so severe as to prevent new brick building from being commen- ced. But now that milder weather may soon be calculated on, we observe that pre- parations are made fora number of build- ings. By an advertisement in to-day’s paper it will be seen that proposals are solicited for covering the premises of the late Mr. McArn with five tenements for Stores. But what is of much more pub- lic concernment, is the fact that the work of rebuilding the Fayetteville Hotel, on an enlarged and more convenient scale, has been commenced, and will doubtless be prosecuted with energy.—Fuyetteville Observer. Textan Nomination for Congress. Some of the citizens of the Western Congressional District of the State of Tex- as, have written a letter tothe Hon. Wm. J.

Alas, no.— The editor of the organ would fain be- lieve so. but his heart fails him; he hopes, but it is “ hope mix’d witha killing fear.” In short, the state of the organ,’since that fatal Thursday, has been painful to wit- ness? Ais “sufferings” do indeed seem “intolerable,” and they betray him into the most amusing contradictions. One day he hangs out his banner on the outer wall of fifty:four forty ; the next, fearing that he may be there left in a. minority, (dreadful of eld to all bis sensibilities.) he descends a little, and seems willing to co- quet with forty-nine; then, alarmed at the idea of concession, abuses, the Whigs, bounds off to the north, and talks even of sixty-nine. Thus, in a painful incertitude as to the ultimate action of the President, he vibrates between the extremes, settling at no point, but a mere thermometer. in- dicating from day to day the varying tem- perature of the Oregon feeling and pros pects.

To bush the mutiny there, it makes all sorts of faces, and calls all sorts ot names ! Now, the Wrhtgs, ti this business of Or- egon, have no course at all vs Whigs.— Some go one way, others another, but all refuse to make a party question of it; all promise to stand by their country in case of war, and all are for holding the Ad- ministration responsible for every step it takes in the negotiation. Whig principles are naturally for peace, for order, and for bettering the condition of their fellow-men by the pursuits of peace; and, if war. comes, it comes in spite of us, and is not | to be of our creation; but of a national | we do fot chose to make a party question. | Such a course puzzles the Union. It can make no political capital out of it. The. Whig course does not allow Mr. Polk to keep up a prodigious outery for his own | personal benetit—to brjng the country to | the verge of 2 precipice, and to keep us quivering over it; but it compels him to | show his colors, to be for peace, or to pre- | pare for war. Hence we are ready to in- | crease the navy, nay, if necessary, to. strengthen the army, to keep up or add to. the tariff, to lay extra taxes, to make loans; | in short, to do any thing to rescue the | country from the ruin and disgrace of be- | ing pillaged the first year of a war, be-. cause We were so mad as te run into it, without preparation. | But millions of dollars would not pay for | the mischief the Union has done, from the first outcry it made, prior to the opening | of Congress, for “the whole or none of'| Oregon,” down to the present hour. It has” urrested business; it has checked impor- | tations and exporations ; it has frightened | capitalists ; it has palsied the arm of the | employer and the laborer ; and even here, | in New York, where the gambling poli- tics of the Administration are seen through and nobody believes there is any real dan- ger of war, the timid capitalist is tright- ened, and hoards up his treasures instead of putting them into active service for the common good.

Mr. Leak, (or rather & Colonel? Leak.) has entered upon the canvass for Governor in ear- nest. He spent a good part of the week of Montgomery Superior Court, (a fortnight age ) at that Court House, and there stated, as Hear, thathe was a candidate. This week he has spent here, ‘electidnecring most assiduously, (bot [ think, with no effect.) Enever saw a Candidate for the House of Commons more ac. | twe among the crowd in a Court yard, than he | bas been. Of course no one will complain of this, T only mention it as an evidence that the | system of canvassing, by making stump speech. es in the various counties, is abont to be so ex. tended as to embrace what is commonty called “bush-fighting.” Tt reniains to ther it will make up in success for whatit lacks ia dignity. Perhaps, as Mr. Leak is from this section of the Sate, and may not be generally Known in otter parts, it may be my duty to give my rea. ders Some idea of the gentleman who is ths selected, asthe competitor of our present ex. eellent and most eapable Governor. T have | ng known Mr. Leak, and entertain for him | personally none bot kind feelings. TP eannot. therefore, during the approaching canvass, be accused of setting down “uebtin malice.” Inthe first place, let me remark. that Mr. Leak haz no more claim to the title of * Colo. nel,’ than T have. ‘Phis is the beginning of that system of humbug and frand by whieh his party invariably attempted to gull the public. | There was first “Colonel? [oke, and then! ®Culonel” Polk, neither of whom, T imagine, | had any better claimto military fime than ¢ Co! | Leak ; but the unexpected sucesss of one of these, and the near approach to success of the other have doubtless induced the party to think that there is some magic in the title—that the people can he guiled and bumbayged by so ve. | ry small and shallow a trick. It is right that | Eshould say, that Tam sure Mr. Leak had no | hand in this humbug. Mr. Leak is largely engaged in planting (bis estate being almost entirely, in S. Caroti va.) Ile was edueated for the Legal profess- ion, and practiced with moderate success for a few years. He was in the Legislature inany years ago, and has frequently of late aspired to the same station, but his political opinions were odious to his neighbors, and he had not suff. cient personal popularity to atone fur them.— His predominant trait is an inordinate ambi- tion for public life and political distinction—the last effort to attain this object, (previous to the presen!) being his application to Mr. Polk for the office of Consul at Havana. And now he vis willing to accept the bonor which was in- tended first for Fisher and then for Caldwell, | amd which has been tendered to him by as ma- ff as four respectable individuals of the County raf Anson, solemnly * convened and organized” to a “Democratic meeting” !! i Mr. Leak was once a United States Bank a He ts now of course opposed to such an qMetitution, He was a Crawtord nian in eppo- _filidn to Jackson, and others. He was next a Jackson ran ia opposition to Adams. He was then a Jackson and Barbour man in opposition to Jackson and Van Buren. He was a White | ®an in opposition to Van Buren. He was al- | most a Whig whilst Mr. Calhoun wasa Whig; for he was and is a great admirer of Mr. Cal- ibova and has been a consistent openent of Mr. an Buren, except that whilst Mr. Van Buren Was in the Presidential Chair, he supported the Administration. i. In one respect at least the Whigs may con- ce€TAlulate themselves that Mr. Leak is the op- | Rae of Gov. Graham; for he is a living il- | ration of the humbuzgery of one of the most «Petent, if net one of the most true assertions of wdbe stump orators of tbat party; viz: that the | «Manufacturers, the. * lords of the Joom”—made | enormous dividends of 20 to 30 per cent, a | year, by virtue of the odious black Whig ‘Tar- whilst the poor appressed farmer could make lor 2 per cent. Now it so happen$ that | « Leak is one of these “lords of the loom,’ | And whilst he has grown rich as a farmer, or wPaaier, his manufacturing capital, with all the tid of the tariff which he complains of so bit. | y has never paid him one cent of dividend | the six or eight years in which the Factory | Maa been in operation!

But what has caused this necessity to exist since the strong expres. sions in favor of peace by British Minis. ters on the occasion of the epening of Par. liament, unless it be that the last Steam. er brought over unfavorable intelligence, we are, as. yet in the dark. And if there really is danger of a conflict about Oregon, it is but right. that as a nation, we should be prepared for it, and we trust the Sen. ate will not Jet the matier rest gntil they are better informed as to the true state of se — dent himself; and of course it seems to me that these estimates thus sanctioned, should have been brought before the Senate. from all his friends, to what purpose all Se?¥!DS Peace ; and that, “avoiding oc: these are to be applied. The plain argu- ment of the Administration paper is this; * Give to the President all the power, raise new. troops, build new ships, fill the Trea- sury, and, having done this, then let Con- gtéss and the People come to aunanimous resolution to let him do with all these means of power just what he pleases,”— Now, we venture to say that this is a sort of unanimity which will never be reach- ed, either in Congress or the country.— Congress must see that there isa necessi- ty for taxes, and armies, and _ navies, be- fore it will vote them.

Afier which the Chairman explained in graphic order the object of the Convention ; which immediately went into the primary busi- ness of the day—which was to diffuse the light of ‘Temperance, founded on the sure principle of total abstinence. | The order of the day being handed to the ‘chair he called on Mr. Rufus N. Lowrance to address the meeting. Mr. Lowrance spoke first, of the ae of the | common bounties of Providence in Ahe manu- facture of alcoholic spirits, showing by com. _ parison, that the alcoholic drinks produced by ‘the distilation of grain, was not an equivalent to the bread stuffs consumed. Secondly—that | this waste has in this, as in other countries, produced a scarcity and in some cases a want of the necessaries of life. He showed accord- | ing to the calculation of Fulton the number of | ‘acres of land employed in the growing of grain — /and hops for distilation and beer, and on an average crop the amount of bread, that might /annually be distributed to the poor instead of said drinks, which tend to impoverish and de- base the consumers. His third reason was the ‘impropriety of habitua! drinking, for this of it- ‘self was sufficient to encourage and continue ithe making and vending of ardent spirits. — Cease to make. cease to vend, cease to drink ; and withdraw from the sideboard—repel temp- tation and live for usefulness.

VEGETATION OF SEEDS. ‘Among the important questions which inte. rest the gardener, is that which relates to the | proper fime for putting hig seeds into the ground. - It is well known that different seeds require | mination; and that some plantsflourish, where others, svould. speedily perish, While the rein- deer-moss thrives best on the snow-capped mountains of Norway, other plants ‘are found spreading themselves over the burning surface of the island of Tanna. “Familiar as these truths are, I believe no experiments have: been heretofore made to ascertain. the preeise tem: perature most favorable to.the germination of different seeds. Togive a starting. puintt6 this questiog, and to enlist others in the investiga- tion, I proffer the subjoined table for publication, I made in the years 1829 and 1840. - My. ob- ject was to determine what temperature at noon was most congenial to. the vegetation of the different seeds which I sulyected to experiment. For this purpose, I planted the seeds at various periods’; noting~the: state of the ‘thermometer every day untik the’ plants appeared above ground, - These experiments being repeated, and in every insfance giying very Sneaely the same average temperature when the period of germination was the same, has led me to as. sume as correct the following propositions : | (other things being equal,) the time necessary fur the development of a seed may he ascer. t tained. { | . 3. Some seeds require a much higher tem- | perature than others to vegetate. | 4, When theseed fructifies in the same year in which it is planted, the proper time for put- | | ting it into the ground is when the meridian | temperature is‘such as to produce vegetatiun in the shortest period, 5.

Tirty-three Hundred British and Native Troops kill- ed and wounded—and reported loss of Thirty Thou- gand Stkhs at Moodkee and Ferozeshah. Our advices from Bombay, since the sailing of the steamship Cambria, came down to Jan. vary 17, and furnish accounts of one of the greatest battles ever fought by the British in our Indian Empire, in which we have sustained the known loss of 3,000 of our brave soldiers, in- cluding the gallant Sale, Sir J. M’Kaskill, and Mayt Broadfoot. When these accounts: left the scene of action for Bombay, for transmission jo England, there were several regiments from which returns had not been received, so that a ather loss may be calculated upon. in Extraordinary Gazette gives the official account of all the military operations in this great struggle. The result, we are proud to say, $2 28 glorious and decisive a viclory as ev. er crowned the British arms, and equalled only by the field of Waterloo. Previous to laying before our readers copies of the more impor. tant despatches, we prefix the following brief oulline : On the 12th, 13th, and 14th of Dec., the Sikh army crossed the Sutlej, with, at the owest estimate, 80,000 men (of whom 20.000 or 30 000 were cavalry,) and about 150 cannon ofthe largest calibre moveable in the field, and exquisitely finished—an artillery immeasuralyly more powerful than was ever brought into the peld bey Wellington or Napoleon, It is only in morala that the Sikhs are ranked as barbarous.

The rejection of the article of the treaty was to be justified: the treaty of Utrecht / Was to be plead against the British, to put an end to their darling desire to obtain the navigation of the Mississippi. The | first was a delicate duty. The non-ratifi- cation of a treaty, concluded under in- structions, except for good cause, is, by the law of nations, an injury to the ad- verse Power, implying a breach of faith but little short of the enormity of violating ‘the same treaty after its ratification. To show this good cause—to justify ourselves for a seeming breach of faith—was the immediate care of Mr. Jefferson ; and im- mediately after the Senate had acted up- on the two treaties, namely, on the 14th of February, 1804, Mr. Madison, Secre- tary of State, wrote to Mr. Monroe (Mr. King having asked leave to return when he had concluded his treaty) to bring this delicate business before the British Gov- ernment, and satisfy them at once upon the point of the non-ratification of the fifth article. The treaty of Utrecht furnished the justification, and Mr. Monroe was in- structed to urge it accordingly. QUESTION.

Monroe shows that he. held a@otversa- tion with Lord Harrowby, the British Se: cretary of State, and used the Utrecht treaty for both the purposes for. which he had been instructed to use it, and with perfect success. He also shows that, un- willing to leave such an important matter to the memory of an individual, herdrew up the substance of his conversation $n writing, and delivered it to Lord Harrow- by, that he might lay it before the Cabi- net. The production of thispapere-then, is the next link in the chain of the eyi- dence to be laid before the Senate ; and here it is: ‘‘ Paper respecting the boundary of the United States, delivered to Lord Harroiwby, Scplems ber 5, 1304. VRE. “ By the tenth article of the treaty of Utrecht, ‘it is agreed ‘France shall restore to Great ‘ Britain the bay and straits of Hudson, togeth- ‘er with all lands, seas, seacoagts, rivers, and ‘places situate in the said bay and straits which ‘belong thereunto,’ &c. tis also agreed ‘that ‘commissaries shall be forthwith appointed by ‘each Power to determine, within. a year, the ‘limits between the said bay of Hudson andthe . ‘ places appertaining to the French ; and also to “describe and settle, in like manner, the’Wound.* ‘aries between the other British and Freneh ' ‘colonies in those parte.’ ‘“Commissaries were accordingly appointed ‘by each Power, who executed the stipulations ‘ of the treaty in establishing the boundaries pro- ‘ posed by it. They fixed the northern bounda- ‘ry of Canada and Louisiana by a line begin- ‘ning in the Atlantic, at a cape or promontory ‘in 58° 30’ north latitude; thence, southweste ‘wardly, to the Lake Mistasin ; thence, further ‘ southwest, to the latitude of 49° north from the ‘equator, and along that line indefinitely.” | * Mr. B. stopped the reading, and Te." marked upon the extract as far as read.” He said this was a statement—a state?” ment of fact—made by Mr. Monroe -to## Lord Harrowby, and which, of itselfjaesi= tablished the twofold fact, that the com- missaries did act under atreaty of Utrecht, and established the 49th parallel as the. boundary line between France and Great Sritain. from the Lake of the Woods in- definitely west. How unfortunate that the Senator from Michigan had not look-’* ed toauthentic documents, instead of. lodk-"* ing to Mr. Greenhow’s book, and becom: < ing its dupe and its victim. If so, he mez” ver could have fallen into the serious er- ror of denying the establishment of the -. line under the treaty of Utrecht; and the further serious error of saying that Me. Monroe had added nothing to Mr. Madi- son’s and had left the question as doubt- ful as he found it. In point of fact, Mr. Monroe added the particulars of which Mr. Madison had declared his ignoranee 3“ added the beginning, the courses, and the ending of the line ; and stated the whole with the precision of a man who had tae ken his information from the proceedi of the commissaries. And to whom did he deliver this paper? Toa British Se-. cretary of State. to be laid before the King in Cabinet Council, and to be used against the Power who was a party tothe ~ treaty! And what did Lord Harrowby say? Deny the fact, like the Senate who’ is So unfortunate as to follow Mr. Green- * how. or even resist the argament result- ing from the fact? Not at all.

Great Britain acquired Canada, the line no longer had application, and from that time ceased to appear on maps.— What was necessary in 1752 became useless in 1766. ‘The great fact is nowestablished.

It actually led to peace ; for the Queen, taking part with Mrs. Masham, quarrelled with the Duchess, and then with the Duke of Marlborough, and so recalled him from his command, stopped the career of vic- tory, and then made peace—the very peace whose benefit we are now claiming, that of U- trebt. And thus the incident of the gown and the water throws its point and power on the point I have been establishing. Greenbow’s book ; he had but-a poor opinion -of books compiled in closets for the instruction of men of business. ‘They were generally shal- low, of no use to the informed, and dangerous to the uninformed, whom they led astray ; and to the indolent, who would trust to their super- ficial glosses, without going to the fountain head, and seeking truth at the bottom of the well.— So of the book in question. Had it not been for Greenhow’s Oregon the Senator from Michi- gan would have sought the history of the treaty of Utrecht in the authentic documents which our library contains, and would have found the truth, and would have been to-day a free-man, and not a prisoner, as he constituted himself yesterday, in the hands of the Forty-Nines. He is now their prisoner, doomed to dwell at 49. He is not killed, but taken. We may say of him as the consoling messenger said to Penelope : “ The great Ulysses is not dead, “ But, far from wife and son, “ He lives a prisoner, on a desert isle, I will not follow the poet and say— “ Detained by savage men !” For the Forty. Nines are not savage, but peace- ful and merciful, and will allow the captive the full liberty of his person, on his parole of honor yesterday given, ona condition now become absolule, never to pass 49 ; never to use again that name of omen, the Russian line. This is a sad termination—almost ridiculous—of his warlike commencement. It is the fruit of bis dependénce on Greenhow’s book. ‘That book has been the litthe dog of his catastrophe.— Henceforth the Senator’s occupation is gone. War—inevitable war—can no longer be the burden of his song. Waris now evitable. In- evitabiltty has reversed its application. It is peace that is now inevitable, and henceforth we must hear that dulcet sound. The effect of this change in the Senator’s position must be great. On the Grecian band, of whoin he is the Agamemnon, it must have a most diminishing effect. ‘That band for some months bas been sitting fur the picture which the poet drew of our grandmothers jn the time of long- waisted gowns and tight stays— “ Small by degrees and beautifully less.” But now the sudden deduction of so much weight and,strength, in the person of their chief, must leave them almost nothing. On the future con- duct of the campaign it must have a decisive effect, for the Ajaxes of this expedition, both big and little, must renounce it when their great chief has imposed the penalty of silence and in- action on himself.

At the Typographical Celebration in Rochester, @ fewdayssince, Mr. William | A. Welles, a journeyman, gave the ar lowing sketch of his life, Which .is the | reatest ‘mess of pt thatuwe ever heard, of. He says: Mr. President :—It has often ‘been ree marked that the fortunes of the membéts” of the Typographical profession have been | more diversified and precarious than that ot any other class of men. The changes constantly taking place in their cireum- stances render them an easy prey to all the vicissitudes of life. , The printer is an intellectual. being.— No class of men. in any age of the world, have given evidence of so great’ versatili- ty of talent, universal knowledge and va- riety of reading, as the body Typographi- cal. The biography of many printers | would be both amusing: and. ingtgiiictive. | By way of illustrating the abowe deelara- tion, I offer the following crude. rambling recollections of a soméwhat adventurous journey thus far through life; not that I ae would, in so doing. claim any ‘hotoriéty for. my many *hair breadth ’scapes, but from an inclination to let my fellow erafismen read a page of my story; andif any good should result from my experienge, to. be- queath the record of the incidents of my times, for the amusement of others. I served nearly seven years’ apprentice- mour, 49 Jolin street N. ¥. In this Office, associated as fellow-workmen, were the late Commissary General of this State, A. Chandler, Mayor Harper, N. York ; Gen. George P. Morris, now editor and publisher of the ‘ New York Mirror; John Wind Elliott, the Foreman, (one of the notorious * Mirandi Expedition,’) and your humble servant. “ne oo | i S About this time T pulled the first num- Harrison State Convention ever held in ber of the ‘ New York American? then ed- ited by Charles King, James H. Hamilton and Gulian C. Verplanck. The first edi- tion of *Salmagundi’ was also printed in this office, about this time.from the MS. of Washington Irving; in the-compos'tion of which I assisted. In Van. Winckle’s office afterwards, I see up the three first numbers of the *‘ Sketch Book,’ by the same ited a eo ee wy 5st ome : a ] 7 biman, Fos > ASW ‘% vow Bp focked up ii adv , eee ‘While T was discussing the ills of life. the inconvenience of being 400 miles from home, in the wilderness, listening to the surges of Lake Erie-and the cravings of amemply stomach; a gentleman tapped me upon the shoulder in,a good natured -manner, and asked me if I were a prin- ter? -Panswered him in the affimative.

In the strong box, also, was a box of change, of all kinds, and a large string of-rings of various fancies and val. ues, taken from the dead letters: Many a love token of this modest kind, enveloped in a letter ‘couched in most honied words, and intended, in the mind of the writer, for the dearest girl in| | the universe, !.ad, instead of reaching its inte- “resting destination, bronght ap in the dead let: _ter office, passed through the practical hands of these cold, grey-haired clerks, who never stopp- | ed to read the tender effusion that cost so much racking of the heart-strings—and the delicate _ pledge of affection. had.been tossed inte the iron | chest, instead of encircling the taper-finger of “the love” for whom it was purchased. | But passing out of the chest, the matters that | meet your eye on the shelves and in the cases are equally interesting. Here are books, and ribbons, and gloves, and hosiery,.and a thou. sand other things.

In the Union of Thursday night we find the following editorial remark: “ The In- claim or right of ours be in the very least degree doubtful, it must be given up in all haste.” Knowing of old the art with which the veteran editor of the government paper is wont to color the opinions of an adversa- ry to give plausibility to a reply, we should be authorized to atiribute the above in- stance of perversion to his ancient tactics, did we not fee! in charity bound to ascribe it to a cause calculated to inspire commis- eration.rather than anger. The distant public are not-aware, perhaps, that,‘ ever early-in this month, the mind of re- spectable editor of the Union has been in a very unhappy state ; such, indeed, as to excite not only the sympathy but the se- rious apprehensions of his friends.

In the National Intelli- gencer, as corrected by Mr. Ingersoll himeelf; and so it would appear that if not inserted by the member from New York, there is one false- hood in the case which the original author was not so graceless as to retain. But I go on with the speech : “ Out of this controversy arose the arrest of Alexander MeLeod. What he intended to state now, consisted of facts not yet venerally known, but which would soon be made known, for they were in progress of publication, and he had re- ceived them in no confidence, from the best au- thority. © When McLeod was arrested, General Harrison had just died, and Mr. Tyler was not yet at home as his successor. Mr. Webster— who was de facto the administration—Mr. Web. ster wrote to the governor of New York, with his own hand, a letter, and sent it by express, marked * private,” in which the governor was told that he must release Mr. McLeod, or see the magnificent commércial emporiuns laid in ashes. The brilliant description given by the gentleman from Virginia of the prospective de- struction of the city in the case of a war, was, in a measure, anticipated on this occasion. Mc- Leod must be released, said the Secretary of State or New York must be laid in ashes. ‘The Governor asked when this would be done ? The reply was forthwith. Do you not see coming on the waves of the sea Paixhan guns? And if Mcleod be not released, N.

Every allegation here made—every one would entirely justify the use of that expres- sive monosyllable which some people are base enough to deserve to have thrown in their teeth, but which a gentleman does not often like to ut- ter. Every one of them, from beginning to end, is false. ‘There is not a particle of truth in them—there is not the slightest foundation | for any one of these assertions, “* Mr. Webster wrote a private letter, &c.”” False sir—all false. the governor of the State of New York. “ Mc- Leod must be released.”’ It is false.

Such, then, is the contents of the letters which this person describes as “factsnot general. ly known, for they were in progress of publica- tion, and he bad received them in confidence from the best authority.” Well, I do not know where he got his “authority,” unless, as sug- gested bya friend near me, it was from some chapters of his own recent work $+ But let me state what did actually nccur, and 60 prepare the minds of the Senate for some é of as. tenishment, that any man in the world could tell such a story as that.

The Whigs will not slumber, we trust, when they should be up and doing, | in the approaching campaign, either im the election for Governor or Members to the Legislature. The circumstance of a divieidll among the Democratic Family, should not affect’ us as an opiate. Al- though there is much trath in the proverb “ That a house divided against itself must fall,” yet it should be remembered that even a fraction in number may: surprise and beat a very great army, where there is a folding of the arms, a want of vigi- | lance, a slumbering, an inertness. The Charlotte Jeffersonian, one of the enemy’s missiles, endeavoring to inspire its party under the gloomy prospect in which they commenced the canvass, tells them (speaking in reference to the difficulty of getting a candidate for Governor, and of the present division of the party,) that “a had beginning makes a good ending.”— Let no want of zeal on our part change the prediction of the Prophet, to history, in this case. But whilst it is important to be on the alert, thére is not, it o¢€trs to us, the least possible occasion to entertain a fear as to the triumph of Mr. Grabam. If the Whigs do their duty, throughout the State, we shall enjoy the satisfaction of seeing Shep- ard, the care-worn, despairing champion of a long, blue-faced flock of sheepish De- moérats ; and Leak SWinging his hat in the air rejoicing that he beat the bantling of the irresponsible “ Raleigh clique ;”— and at the same time we shall enjoy the still more important satisfaction of hailing Wm. A. Graham as the worthy and able Governor, re-elect, of the good Old North. That the Whigs have it in their. power to behold and enjoy these results, is unques- tionable; and we cannot think they will forego it—that they will deny it to them- selves. The approaching election for the Le- gislature, this year, is one of interest, from the fact that it will devolve upon it to elect a Senator to Congress; and as North Car- olina should be rightly represented there. Whigs should put forth their strength.— Without a majority inthe Legislatare we need not expect, (although Mr. Graham should be elected) that our Democratic friends will give us the Senator. We must lect a majority to the Legislature; that will secure to us the Senator; besides, it will place the Executive in a situation to accomplish those works, which, from his position, he is enabled to perceive as most desirable for the interest of the State.

In nine cases gut of ten, we: venture to say, these persons Were drawn from the ranks of the tillers of the soil; so that in- stead of contributing, as fofmerly,to the stock of bread-stuffs, &c., brought into market, they have become consamers to the full amount of all that is necessary to support them, thas patronizing, instead of competing with, those who coiifinue to farm. a Ata moderate calculation, they consume annually of breadstuffs, 2,000 barrels ; and Pork to the amount of 200,000)bs. Now to estimate the flour at $5 per barrel, and the Pork at $5 per bundred cwt., we have the handsome sum of $20,000, which is thrown intothe hands of the farmer, just for these two articles alone. If it were’ possible tomake an estimate of the amotint paid for. poultry, eggs, butter, lard, &c., it would doubtless equal, if not exceed the cost of pork and flour ; and bring up the sum to 40 or $50,000. ~ Then it would ap- pear that these establishments besides af- fording a market to Cotton raisers worth to them notiess than $400,000 per annum. consume of the superabundance of the products of their farms of the items above enumerated, from 40 to $50,000 worth. Taking this view of Cotton Factories, it is clearly the interest of all concerned in Agricultural pursuits, to foster and encourage them amongst us. How strange then, that any of such’ sliould’ sustain ‘a party in the country, whose every effort, in the political world, has a powertul ten- dency to break them up—to destroy them. But say they—all the benefits which we derive from factories here may be en- joyed by sending our cotton, pork, and flour, to the manufactories of England ! This is not true; for if all the capital | and labor now employed in manufactur- | ing, in this Country, were withdrawn, it | would necessarily be employed in Agri- | culture, and a very great addition to the products ef that. nursuit woubberstre 5 ANT there is nct the shadow of a prospect that we could compete with the whole of Eu- rope and find sale for the surplus in the | English market. England herself produ- ces almost a sufficiency of the necessaries of life to sustain her people; and if she reecived our products at all, it would only be such an amount as she really needed. and that at a price lower than she could buy elsewhere ; for it is fully to suppose that because we bought her manufactures she would take our bread and meat at higher prices than she would have to pay nearer home. But there are other considerations go- ing to show the benefits of fostering the manufacturing interests of this Country, more national, and consequently, more | important than the foregoing. which we will not take up. Indeed, it was not our intention to say what we have said. #1 | this subject when we commence? this ar- ticle ; and in conclusion, we Would urge it upon every Demoomtic farmer, to think seriously on the elfect which his suffrage | is likely »° bave upon himself and upon | his Country, before he bestows it on a man who is in favor of repealing the Ta- riff on British goods and admitting pau- per labor to.a competition with their own brethren——destroying a market at home by destroying the factories, and rendering their Country a dependant on Great Brit- ain by driving her from those pursuits which alone can preserve her indepen- dence at all times, and which, asmuch as any thing else, is calculated to elevate her in the:scale of nations. VERY STRANGE INDEED! That men of common sense should so far forget what is due to them, as to per- mit.a. certain class of men to heap up wealth at their expense, thereby entailing misery and in maby instances starvation upon their families!

THE FOREST ELM. py CHARLES N. EMERSON, ESQ. —_—— hundred years he reared aloft His branches rough and wide, hundred years the storm he braved jy majesty and pride ; He stood among the mossy rocks, ind tossed his arme about ; nd the winter tempest pipping shrill, Beat the Old Elin, tall aud stout, Ir. Aa emerald spray of leaves had he, | When Summer was iu prime, But the hectic flush, and sickly pale, Came on with Huarvest-time, le soared and shrieked when frosty winds Swept through his antlers hare, 4nd the armory of ice-mailed knights, | | | With its thousand spears, was there. IIf. He caw a hundred summers wart, 4 hundred blossomings ; But he bowed him not, nor felt the sweep Of old Time’s ghosty wings. A thousand sgows dashed on his brow Fiom a dark and frowning sky, But he braved it well, like a forest chief, And laughed as the sturm went by. Iv. The wild-bird came at earliest Spring, On the Eitm a home to find, And he hung his downy cradle out, To reck in the gentle wind. And many a brood of pluinaged ones, Was nurtured fondly there, And many a song was carrolled forth, Upon the scented air. Vv. Here, many a feathered emigrant Wou'd linger on his way, When journeying to the sunny Seuth, In Autumn’s chilly day ; For many a dark battalion Their cohorts gathered here, Winds mournful were their rallying songs, From out the branches sere. VI. The eagle, from his eyrie home, Tanght bis warrior brood to fly To the Joftiest bough of the giant Elm Stretched forth to the vaulted sky: And the eagle learned, on the upraised arins Of the steut old forest king, To gaze at the sunlight’s burning eve, And plume his new-fledyed wing, VIL. The old Elm beard the ocean waves In deep-toned anthems roar, And he answered then with choral voice, is they moaned along the shore. The spray of the green sea wet his robe, When the time of storms was nigh & Ant the sparkling dew was chang’d to brine In the equjnectial sky. VIII. The crow bis winter station took, On the boughs of thé leafless tree, And he gazed with solemn earnestness, On the waste of land and sea, He cawed, and flapped bis dusky wings, When the ice-clad branches creaked ; And his evil-boding voice was heard, When the tempest wildly shrieked. > IX. And shus the hundred years passed on, ) Yet sullthe Elm was young, And the merry songsters nestled there, And stirring anthems sung. Spring still brought forth its emerald robe, Its varments fresh and new, ‘Asbo ight gemmed the trembling folds, With drops of sparkling dew. xX. New summers came with pleasant song, For the proud ald forest chief, And the fingers soft of-pearly showers Tapped light éach twinkling leaf. The Autumn’ came with pensive tread. To sit on her sister’s throne ; And the tattered roffe of the Elm-tree brave, O'er land and sea was blown, XI. Winters still came, and the frost-king white, Breathed cold on the naked tree, And Spirits sad, from the Northern clime, Chimed their fearful minstrelsy, The owl in the night-watch booted wild, And woke the starving crow, Who perched where the houghs were tang- led thick, With wreaths of frozen snow. XII. Kingdoms began, and, tottering fell, Yet the Elm was brave and strong ; As if “eternal yooth ” alone, To his kingship did belong. ; He raised his arms and shook them oft, With a chiefiain’s vaunting pride ;— t the noiseless foot of.Death e’en now, Was stealing to his side. Sait. A woodman came from a.distant isle, U'er the waves of the ocean-blue ; He came with a band of Pilgrim ones, Whose hearts were ve and tre. eir bembling bark was anchored fast, Ow the coid and surgy flood,— Twas near the furest’s sloping hank, Where the furest chiefiain stuod. XIV. The woodman laid his gleaming axe To the fuot of the: icy tree ; And as the noble trank he struck, lt shivered fearfully ; A groan went through the forest wide, It echoed in the dell,— mighty crash went up to heaven, When the furest Elm-tree fell ! a a Hints to Makers of Candles.—Take two Minds of allum for every ten pounds of tallow, | ve it in water before the-tallow is put in, | “then melt the tallow in the allum water ; "Mh the frequent stirring it will clarify and tallow so aSt6 make a most-beauti- Wanicle for either winter or summer use ‘ to sperm: . » /son river in t@o months, is but an earnest | calize the fertility of the West.

The correspondence of the Pieayune, and the letter which we pablished yester- dy from the. American camp on the Rio Bravo, both under date of the 29 h ultimo, concur in Stating that it was the intention of General Taycor to intrench himself at ihe spot opposite Matamoras where he fintpitched his camp, and thatthe appear- ance ol the Mexican batteries on the oth- erbank of the river had not caused any gnsation itn the Americanairmy. Weare therefore inclined to doubr the correctness of the report cea Galveston, that, at the xhibitionol these batreries.the Americans had retired fiom their encampment tua point further down the river. It is possi- ble, however, that at a beter hour in the day than the letters above-mentioned were writen, General Tayior may have chang- sep indicated in the accounts from Gal- rion, If so, his object may have been twofold: first.to obtain a better position ; and. second, to forée the Mexicans, if they were disposed to attack him, to cross the nver inta@ the American territory. thus bowing on them the entire burden of | wstilitieso—Vew Orleans Bulletin.

The March number of the Farmers’ Cabinet, contains an interesting commu- nication from James Gowen, Esq., which states that Mr.cG. made from his farm of 100 acres! near Philadelphia, last year, the following articles : 20 tons of hay, at 318 00 $160 00 400 bushels wheat, at 1.00 400 00 300 do rye, 80 240 00 100 do oats, 40 40 00 1000 do corn, 60 600 00 500 do potatoes, 75 357 00 900 do cnarrots, 40 360 00 600 do ruta-baga, 25 150 00 600 do sugar pars, 40 240 00 1500 do _ turnips, 12} 187 50 15 hogs slaughtered : weighing 45C, at 85 per C. 225 00 Cattle, Calves and pigs, sold, 347 00 of food when this is done. Mr. Smith, of Dunston, Scotland, was the first t» bring this plough into general netice, and he ' some what enthusiastically, though perhaps truly enough, thus describes the beneficial resuits. “When land has heen thoroughly drained, deeply wrought, and well manured, the most unpromising, sterile soil becomes a deep, rich loam ; rivaling in fertility the best natural soit in the country, and from being fitted for raising good crops of from 32 to 48 bushels of wheat, besides potatoes, turnips, mangel wurtzle and carrots, which all good agriculturalists know are the abundant producers of the best manure. It is hardly possible to estimate all the advan. tages of a dry and deep soil. Every operation tated; less seed and less manure produce a full effect, and there can be no doubt that the cli- mate itself will be much improved by the gen. eral of land made dry.” For the Richmond Christian Advocate.

It employs 325 hands. and is- sues, on an average, 110,000 sheets of 24 pages per day. It has sold some 39,000 copies of the “Conversation Lexicon,” and 80,000 of “Schiller.” Like the Chambers. of Edinburgh, and ses have divided their establishment into voted to a distinct branch of * art.” Messrs.

Since thé dispatch of our paper se * Uni- corn,” ouradvices from Bombay i us of two more great battles having been fought in In- dia between the British and Sikh armies, both terminating in decisive victory to the.former.— The first was under the Command of Sir H. Smith, and the most bluody on record, In Sir H. Smith’s hattle, the whole army of the enemy has been driven headlong over the | difficult ford of a broad river; his camp, can- | hon, (fifiy-six pieces) haggage, stores of am- munition and. grain—his all, in fact, wrested from. him by the repeated charges of cavalry infantry ; and in that of 8r. Hugh Gough e Sikhs lost twelve thousaid men and sixty- _ five pieces of artillery. ‘Phe nylish had three | hundred men killed, thirteen of whom were of. | ficers, and two thousand five hundred wounded, of whom one hundred and one were officers.— } | { | it | | giments suffered enormonsly, General Dicke _and Brigadier Taylor aro. among the dead. __ The action commenced in the morning, and the work of destruction had closed hy eleven o'clock’ in the forenoon. Sir. Hugh Gough’s account of this battle proves it to have been, | while it lasted, one of the most terrific on re- _cord. Unlike the able waneeuvring of Sir. H. | Smith, this affair seems to have owed its suc- cess to the daring intripidity of our men, who stormed the enemy’s entrenchments, bayonet in hand, defended as they were by thirty thou- sand Sikhs and seventy pieces of artillery.— | The slaughter was immense, for our troops braved his enemy’s fire by reserving their shot until they got within his entrenchments. The action terminated in the complete rout of the enemy, the capture is guns, and the loss of his camp and. baggage. An awful sacri- fice of lite took place on the Sutlej, in aftempt- ing to cross which our troops mowed down thousands of the flying foe, and those who es- caped the tire were drowned in the stream.— This victory has put the finishing stroke to the war. It has brought the Sikhs to their knees, and they are now humble suppliants-for mercy and forbearance. ‘hey have agreed to pay a million and a balf sterling, in the course of four years, foward the expenses of the war, the pay. ment to be enforced by the occupation of La- hore. Thus has ended a war respecting the conse- quences of which a good deal of anxiety not unnaturally prevailed—a war forced upon us by the peculiar exigencies of the case, from which we could not shrink, but for which we had made no previous preparation, used no adequate fore- sight. ‘The Sikhs took an ungenerous advan. tage of the long alliance which had existed be- tween us and their great ruler, Runjeet Singh ; and their perfidy has been punished in a man- ner fully commensurate with ils enormity— punished promptly, energetically, and ina style which promises in all future time to prevent a ~t.eamduct.at once base, dishonora- nealled for, | | | | 2 gtr eaaeees ble, and u Proclamation by the Governor.

The whig however.de- clined, on the ground that he had no personal acquaintance with the candidate, “ but sir,” said he, “if you will ask hign and hesdenies it, |. I promise you to * face him.” So they started, with a small crowd of democrats at their heels, to ask Mr. Shepard, who was silting in a tav. ern “discoursing most eloquently”—perhaps against the “ abominable tariff ””—-* Mr. Shep- ard,” enquired the democrat, in a tone that told | he felt confident of a triumph over the whig, | “T want to know if it’s true that the ~ of Pennsylvania are in favor of this wig tariff that you have been speaking to us about 7” Me.

(sevecrep FOR THE CAROLINA WATCHMAN. LOVE. ~BY ELIHU BURRITT. In the material universe, there is one grand royal law, upon which hang all the laws that govern matter or motion. and source of all the laws known to the physi- cal world, is the wor!d of Gravitation. In its object, operation and effect, it isdo the material world just what the royal law of love is to the moral. To every atom of matter in the uni- verse, it is the command, and the command | obeyed: “ Thou shalt love the Lord thy God > with all thy soul, mind and strength, and thy | neighbor astbyself; thou shalt attach thyself to hiseternal throne with all thy capacity of adhe. | sion and draw with thee thy fellow atom toward the same centre. Since the world was made, not a grain of sand, nota drop of rain or dew, nora vesicle of air, has ever broken that law: and | t ‘e here-has been peace, perfect peace, through all re peopled amp 'iudes of space. Pervading the whole universe with its socializing influences, it | attracts particie to particle, planet to primary, sun,to sun, system to system; mooring all the creations of God around His throne, the com. | mon'centre of matier and mind. And there, fifm and peaceful, that royal law holds them, while they make music with the harmony of their motions, singing as they revolve in the or- | bits which it prescribed them when eternity was young, afd which shall remain unaltered by a h hen eternity shall be old. and omnipresent force of that law, de- s the destiny of worlds which geometry ne- | ver measured, the condition of beings outreach. | ing the arithmetic of angels. Should it release | its hold upon a single atom of matter floating | along the sunless disc of non-existence, tremb. | ling svould run through all those innumerable creations, ‘and signs of woe unutterable that | Suppose, now, that some human | a}lWas lost.” government shou'd undertake to suspend the op- egatinn or existence of this royal law of the physical world. And suppose that its puny arm eould palsy that all pervading, concentrating forte ; what mind could not conceive the wild catastrophe that would ensiie through the mate. rial universe?) Millions of millions of suns would be quenched simultaneously in everlasting night. All the worlds they lighted and led, would erumble in their orbits into the minutest divisions of matter, filling the whole immensity oar with hostile atoms, each at war with ite lle, repelling its soci@ly, and dashing on, insiteceptrifugal madness, to “make confusion _ wore confounded.” All the beings that peo- pled*those decomposed worlds, woulg float pro- mis¢uous and dismembered over the black surg- es of the boundless chaos; and not a throb of life nor a ray of light would heafor shine amid the ruins of the universe. Does any one doubt for'a moment, that all this, and more than we can conctive of tuin, would be the instantane- ong consequence of destroying the great law of gravitation? But what is all this; to God’and His moral universe is all this dis. aster, this wreck of matter and crush of worlds: what this‘disruption very vein of life and fortmiof beauty : what is) all this to that other and more dreadful catastrophe which: War would produce, when it reaches up.and essays to par. alyze with hs iron hand, the great law of: Lovs, | a law of Gravitation in the mora] world, which racts and centres around the. heart of God, all the hearts that beat with spiritual exiatence ?

The young gentleman immediately started for New Orleans,to enter into commercial business, thinking that distance would lessen the attachment he really felt for the young lady. When a woman is injured, or thinks |. she is injured, by the one she loves, she is more apt than the male sex to Lite off her own nose, as the saying is, to inflict pain and be revenged on the offending ob- ject. A gentleman that ‘the young lady once rejected renewed his praposals. and | was accepted within a week after her old lover had embarked ‘tor the South.— On reaching New Orleans be found that distance, instead of weakening his at- tachment, only made the lady dearer, and | he became inelancholy and low spirited.

At length Preston launched out one of those | passages of massive declamation which those | who have’heard him know him to be so capable | of uttering.

His course was quickly taken —the next morning saw him on a packet | ship bound for Gotham. The passage unfortunately was long, and the poor fellow chafed and fretted so much that the passengers began to think him deranged, or else a fugitive escaping from justice.: The instant that the ves- sel touched the wharf he darted for the oflice of his friend, the lawyer. It is to be supposed that the latter was much surprised to see his friend, imagining him | a couple of thousand miles away. Alter the usual salutations were over, he ex- claimed. ‘My dear fellow! you are just in time to see the wedding. Miss ——, your sweetheart isto be married this morning at 10 o’clock. To tell you the truth, | don’t believe there is mueh love about it, and that the girl really thinks more of one hair of your head than of the fortunate bridegroom’s whole body. ‘Good God! «Where is she to be mar- ried—in church ! . *No. At her father’s house.’ ‘My dear fellow, [—I—yes—no—yes, I have it.—Have you any case coming on in either of the courts at eleven o'clock ?” ‘Yes,’ ‘Then fill me up a subpena with the bridegroom’s name. Don’t stop to ask any questions—It matters not whether he knows anything about the parties in the suit. By heavens Julia shall be mine ?” His friend saw his object at once, and promised to carry on the matter. The subpaena was made out and placed in the hands of 'a clerk ta serve upon the unsus- pecting bridegroom the instant he was seen to leave this residence, and he was despatched in a cab to watch the house. About ten minutes before eleven as the soon to be happy man was about enter- ing into a coach before the- door of his residence, he was served with a’subpena. ‘Can't help it,’ said the clerk in reply to his gesticulating about,’ ‘ going to be married,’ ete. * We shan’t reach the Hall now before eleven—the case is the first on the calender—won’'t keep you but ten minutes. If you don’t go, heavy fine, im- prisonment for contempt, etc. The bridegroom, who was rather of a timid nature, finally consented, particular ly as theclerk promised tosenda friend of his who sat in the’cab, wrapped up ina large cloak, to the house of’ his bride in expectation, explaining the reasons of his absence. The reader may suppose who this person was. Eleven o’clock came, but still no bride - groom. The guests were staring at each other—the priest began to grow impa- tient—and the bride that was to be, look- ed pale and agitated, when a carriage drove up, the bell rang, and ‘ There he is ” muttered many voices. A gentleman did indeed enter, Whose appearance created almost, as much astonished as that of Ed- gar of Ravenswood in the hall of Ashton Castle, at the marraige of Lucy Ashton, in Scott’s Bride of Lammermoor. The lady fainted—private explanations en- sued between her parents and her lover —and the result was, that in ten minutes the two real lovers were joined in the bonds of matrimony, much to the satisfac- tion of all. The bridegroom that was to have been soon after made his appearance, puffing and blowing. What. he said and what he did, on beholding his rival, and became acquainted with.the condition of affairs, was really tragi-comical. , The story of the subphena shortly af- ter leaked out, and has created so much amusement, that the poor fellow declares he will sue for $10,000 damages for sub- phenaing him as a witnessina case he Hta Old» ‘Constable a French Brandy, Jumaica Rum, Holland day night before last, and the genteman_ attends {o the store thought it impossible. bad heen ey ile was offen Be epuly Sheriff, who on the look out. ‘The thonght occurred'to- that some one had entered the Cellar, by the aid of an extra key, and had asrended into the store through a ‘trap door.’ So he. made ihe cellar his hed chamber for several nights.

One fellow is represented to have a free negro, nam- ed Mayho, out peddling on Meat, Tin, &c., for him—he says that * Meat and ‘Tin sell well.” It appears that certain free negroes in this. vi- cinity, have enjoyed, in a great degree, the ben- efit of stolen articles—and our belief is that at least one half of the numerous free negroes that infest our community, live by stealing, or hy the stealing of slaves. We expressed this helief long ago. And we furthermore told the Honorable Board of Commissioners that their Patrol Law was not worth a fig, which requires the Town to be Patrolled from 9 until 12 o’clock —the reason is obvious.—Milion Chronicle. Burrenness of Newspapers.—The popu- ular mind of this country runs so entirely in a political and partisan channel as to be almost wholly destitute of originality of character. We are as busy and as much excited every day in asking “ what is done in the capital ?” or “© what do the British say ?” as were the Athenians when they provoked the scornful censure of De- mosthenes for the same mercurial and un- dignified practices. Looking over our files as they are furnished us by the mails of each successive day, it is truly surprising and melancholy to see how they repeat each other—and how little they contain, even in a political point of view, of what. is either instructive or entertaining. Take up the “ correspondence” of the press gen- erally, and how unvaried even in the phraseology ; and how improperly does it deal in the simply personal, the prudent, and the intangible in public affairs. The complete absorption of the press by na- tional politics, is perhaps one of the signs most unfavorable to the several and dis- tinct characteristics and principles of the States, and of the thought and good sense of the people, as individuals. Science. morals, literature, art—all seem lost sight of in the melee.—Charleston Putriot. SHE LOVES HIM YET. BY MRS OSGOOD. She loves him yet! I know by the blush that rises Beneath the curls That shadow. her sun-lit cheek ; She loves him yet! Thro’ all love’s sweet disguises In timid girls, A blush will be sure to spéak, - But dearer signs Than the radiant blush of beauty, The maiden finds, Whenever his name is heard — Her young heart thrills ; Forgotten—herself—her duty Her dark eye fills, And her pulse with hope is stirr'd. She loves him yet ; The flower the false one gave her * When last he came, Is still with her wild tears wet She’ll ne’er forget, However his faith may waver, Thro’ grief arid shame, Believe it—she loves him yet! His favorite songs She will sing—she heeds no other ; With all her wrongs Here life on his love js set, Oh, doubt no more! She never can wed another, Till life be o’er, She loves—she loves him yet!

Mid the glittepimg halls they winged their way, Illum’d by departing,beams of-day ; They perched on an icicled branch of spray, Or rode on a snow-flake, away, away. The brightest one of thatYovely band, Knelt low to the iased her hand, “ A boon great Queen th@@ leave me here, To dance but one night in the méonbeams clear ;” A shade of doubt dimmed the Queen’s bright eye, She paused as in sorrow to frame'iereply ; “Ah simple child, too late thea may’st find, That splendor and fame oft leave peace behind.” How happy was she inthose diamond halls, With no sound around save the icicle falls, She spread with délight her rainbow wings, And a wild cry of joy thro’ the forest rings.— But soon a chill on her heart there came,— No warmth from Auarora’s brilliant flame,— And the snow spirits came with their chilling breath, And all was as still, and cold, as death. “ Sisters, sweet sisters, come take me home, I faint in this bright but cheerless zone, My feeble wings can no longer soar, O come to me loved ones, ere life is o’er.” Frail beautiful one, thou wast never made, Fer this cold, this dazzling chilly glade, In thine own sunny clime of light and love, Thy wings would unfurl and soar above. “ Gifted, yet humble one,” sigh not to roam, From the simple delights of thy own lowly home, Hope not to find in a loftier sphere, The peace and content which attend on thee here. Ah! many have songht ’mid the world’s cold glare, | To rest their warm hopes and affections there, And too late have they found, that tho’ fair and bright? The dream of fame ends in death and night. April 25, 1846. ELLA. THE UNION HOTEL, MOCKSVILLE. Messrs. Editors : 1 hope I am not intruding upon the privacy of your columns to say a few the gentlemanly proprietors, Messrs. H. & R. Reynolds. It is eminently deserving of public patronage. Having had occasion, very recent- ly, to spend a few days in the pleasant little vil- lage of Mocksville, I was charmed with the su- perior accommodations which the Union Hotel afforded, and [ left not only the village but the [lotel and its landlord with reluctance. The proprietors are gentlemen in principle, feeling, | conduct, and well qualitied and desirous of pro- | mating the comfort of those whose good fortune | may lead them to call. No expense is spared | no privation not undergone which may conduce to such a desirable end. The claims of many of our best houses of entertainment to public | patronage are too often overlooked, and I think, | without disparagement to others, thet the Messrs. Reynold’s establishment worthy of | more extensive notoriety than it seems to pos. | sess. Their bar is furnished to supply and | gratify the most varied taste—not only is to be | _ found the iced lemonade suited to the cool-blood. | ed Washingtonian, but also the “ glorious mint | jutip,’” as some of our jolly fellows have it, and decidedly some of the greatest brandy that the | county affords, and Davie is remarkable for her good liquors. In short, to sum up, the accom. modations necessary and requisite to form one /ofthe best Hotels in western North Carolina, | 'are all to be found at the Union Hotel. | Ce MARRLBD In Davidson county, on the 12th iast., by the Rev.

They wept with her but theirs were tears of sympathy. They sometimes asked why thelr father staid away so long, and if he would never come home to bring them playthings and claim the compensation of a kiss again, but when they saw their mother always an- swered theirinquiries with a flood of tears, as she clasped them in her arms, they wept with her again, ceased to ask these questions, Which seemed, they could scarce- ly tell why, so painful, She used often to lead: them tothe grave in the cool and shadowy evening, and they at last under- stood that their papa laid there, and. that he would never come back to them— and their little hearts would swell ; but grief is a transient emotion in the infan- tile breast. Mrs. Granville however, had still much to be thankful for. She was lett: witha cempralls income, any kind friends, and a pretty rural home, and the natural forti- tude of ber nature finally triamphed over her grief, and her widowed heart found comfort ip her pretty orphans—round them her affection clung and in devoting ber- self to their care and education she again became contented and happy. I think it was about touryears alter the loss of her husband that her eldest child— a lovely girl, sickened. She watched by it day and night with that intense anxiety, which while it pervades the very soul. fears to entertain a suspicion of danger. The heart breaking suspense was of long duration. But the child grew worse and she at last received the sad warning to prepare to give it up. She clasped her hands on her burning brow when she heard it and exclaimed—is there any dan- ger—can Cornelia die! But she clung to one fond hope—it absorbed every thought —and clung to it even fora time after the little innocent had closed its weary eyes, sunk gently and softly without a sigh into its last long slumber. Then she thought |she would never be reconciled to the world again. She retired to her chamber, when the funeral obsequies were over, | and brooded over.her sorrows, till melan- ae blackened her cheeks, and. almost | mildewed her heart. | Cornelia’s little brother was now left to | wander to the church-yard alone.

When you enter a drawing room where there is a ball or a party, if possible salute the lady of the house before speaking to any body else. Even your most intimate friends ate to appear invisible until you have made your courtesy to your entertainer. In Paris it is customary for a lady to entera ball-room without taking the arm of the gentle- tan by whom she is attended; she also cross- es the room at pleasure withont any assistance ; this custom 1s sumetimes adopted in the higher circles in England, and promotes ease. When you leave.the room before the others, go without speaking tu any one, if possible, un- eis are “free,” yet all In company, though none are “Tree, ¥ the lady are “equal.” All, therefure, whom you meet should be treated with respect, although inte- rest may dictat2 toward each different degrees of attention. to shun any of ber guests ; those whom she has honored by admitting to your acquaintance, If you meet any one whom you never beard of before at the table of a gentleman, or in the drawing room of a lady, you may converse with him or her with entire propriety. ‘The form of “introduction ” is nothing wore than a state- ment by a mutual fiiend, that two persons are by rank and manners fit acquaintences.for one another. All this may be presumed from the fact, that both meet at a respectable house. Men of ali sorts of occupations meet in so. ciety. As they go there to unbend their minds and escape from the fetters of business, you about his profession. If, in paying a morning visit, you are not re- cognized when you enter, mention your name immediately. If you call to visit one member of the family, and you find others only in the parcor, introduce yourself tothem, Much awk. wardness may occur through defect of atention to this point, ° leave your card. a return visit as if you had found her at home. Visits of ceremony, although made after noon, are called morning visits. In ordinary visits a single card; bat if there be residing in the family a married daughter, an unmarried sister, a guest, or any person in a distinct situation from the mistress of the house, and you are ucquainted, with them, leave separate cards fur each. Some ladies fold down one corner of a card when they wish to denote that their visit is only to one member, and two, three, and even four corners, when it is to the same number of persons; but the cus- tom is nearly obsolete. If you accidentally forget the name of the person you are addressing, the easiest and most straint to ask him his name, making some cas- ual remark about the difficulty of remembering names, and your unfortuate aptitude to forget them. When a lady visits you for the first time, her visits should be returned within three days, or at the latest within a week. When you are invited to a party, you should on the third or fourth day after the party has takem place. ‘To leave your card, without in- quiring if the lady is at home, is sufficient.

Nor can it be ascribed to a want of suffi- cient powers: our Envoy had full pow- ers to adjust every question of difference.

Nor can it be objected, that | We, on our part, would not listen to any reasonable terms of their suggestion ; the Mexican Government refused all nego- tiation, and heve made no proposition of any kind.

By the President : James Bucnanan, Secretary of State. THE WAR WITH MEXICO. When one’s country becomes involved in war with a foreign nation, however strong the sense of indignation against those who may have unnecessarily or wickedly brought about such a calamity, there isa feeling of reluctance to the utterance of the condemnation which a crime so great against humanity and the com- mon weal justly incurs. Such has been our own feeling, and, as far as possible, our course in regard to war with Mexico and its contri- | Although the Halls of Congress and the | vers. Public Press teem with them denunciations of the Administration for the unfortunate’ condi- tion in which, without a singie reason of ne- cessity or expediency, it has placed the coun- 'try, we have ourselves mastered our own feel- | nor any war, on fopt by the Executive, solely | in pursuan of his own... They want no war, mone sich, like this, could have been not only 'y but profitably avoided, had the wise and-safe and humane course of his predecessors been followed by the President of the United States. They want no war for con- quest merely. Still less do they want a war which is to exhaust the public treasury, to har- _ass the citizens with the most fatiguinz military the climate will be far more fatal than the bullets of the enemy—and which | is, according to the President’s avowed inten- | tion, to end, affer.all, in negotiation, which, up- | on every ptinciple of common sense as well as | of public law, ought to have preceded instead _of following the bloody fray. | On the subject of the hostilities which have | actually commenced on the Rio Grande, let us suppose a case ‘which would show the Declar- ation of War against Mexico to be as prema- ture‘as it has been precipitate. Jn the anar- chy which prevails in Mexico, where (the forms of Constitution having become as much of a farce as they are in danger of becoming among ourselves) the Presidency becomes the prize of the most enterprising and successful soldier, why may not ArisTA, universally reputed as an ambitious as well as accomplished General, ta- king advantage of his rank and his influence over officers subordinate to him, have seized this occasion, without orders from his Govern- ment, to make a dash at our army, which, if he do no more than he has already done—but, still more, if ‘he force itto retire from its present po- sition, however short a @istance—by the eclat which such an exploit wilh give him, and his popularity with the army, march to Mexico, drive out the President of the day, and seat / himself in his stead? After merely stating this problem for the reader’s consideration, we will add, in seriousness, that we really have some | doubt whether the crossing of the Rio Grande by the Mexican forces has been authorized at ‘all by the Government of Mexico, and whether it will not be promptly rebuked and disavowed ‘hy it. In this hypothesis, what would become of the solemn assertion, by law, that “ by the | | service—in whieh { | | eC By the arrival uf-a cy ¥ Havana on the ty a ent al ing their ef.

[> A few days ago, in a debate in the Senate, Mr. Sevrer intimated that Gen’L Scott had some control in the sclection of the post oppusite Matamoros for the army, as well as its removal from Corpus Christi, The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore American states that the Gen. eral denies having had any thing to de with the removal of the army, except ag acting under the orders of the War De. partment. In regard to the aet of remo. val from Corpus Christi, he was net eves consulted.

Subseguently, Mr. Calhoun said, Sena- tors have not made the distinction—an obvious one—between the fact, whether there be war, and the act of declaring war. All admitted that there was no war connected with the invasion which gave them a right to declare war. War was an act of hostility, which came from the | sovereign power. As a mere matter of truth or falsehood, he could not vote for | the bill. As men, and as patriots, he ap- | | pealed to the “egpiors whether they ought | people to permit such precedents to not to remove tis impediment provided | sume the sanction of a quiet practice, an its removal would ‘destroy the efficiency the authority of undisputed and acknow of the bill. They ought to accommodate ledged license. War or peace, defeat o those who thought with him. Was it not triumph, the “American people protest a desirable to have a strong vote?) Why, then, not remove this impediment to a strong vote! There could be only one objection, and that was, that it would ren- der the bili less efficient. But could that objection be entertained by any one? lle now came to make some remarks on the speech of the Senator from Ken- tucky (Mr. Crittenden.) He has made a suggestion which seemed to remove every objection. It gave this bill all possible efliciency—ability to prosecute hostilities not merely to the frontier, but beyond it. They could do no more than that. But since some gentlemen around him seemed to say that there was war,he wouldallude tothat. The difference between war and the existing, state of things was as wide asthe poles. War placed every mamber of thiscommmnity at war with every mem- ber-of the’ Mexican community. But it itdid,not-end there—it created new rela- xs between this country and all other ers, amongst these relations was the right of blockade—interfering with the hations of the world, and tending to bring us into conflict with them.

He knew that she would consider the passage of the army to the Rio Grande 'as an invasion of her soil and a declara- tion of war.

It is painful to see the President of the United States com- | pelled to resort to such proofs of territori- al possession. A claim of Texas in 1836, the appointment of a revenue officer, and a nominal Congressional district, .aiéno- minal jurisdiction! Of what posst6le-va- lidity or effect are these acts in settling a question of boundary with a foreign Gov- ernment? There are almost no people in that district, and it is wholly uncertain whether those few would prefer the Gov- "ernment of the United States.

We take it for granted, however, that, for any immediate purpose, the Adminis- tration will first resort to the expedient of an issue of Treasury notes; the neces- sity for resorting to which will in connex- ion with the existence of a foreign war requiring the transportation to great dis- tance of large sums of money, render the Subtreasury scheme wholly impracticable and probably cause that, as well as the _anti-tariff project, to be deferred. Should the War unhappily be prolong- ed, however, loans must be necessarily re- | curred to, and will coustitute the chief source of revenue fordefraying the expen-- ses of the War.

What | _then does he think of the scheme of some | famous “ Democrats” of giving the new States all the Public Lands within their limits? As Distribution is not a subject of discussion any where at present, nor likely to be so for some time to come, it was not easy to perceive the appositeness | on the part of the candidate in making it So prominent in his speech. | In respect to a Tariff, Mr. S. said that | both parties are, generally, in favor of one | as the best mode of raising the necessary revenue for the support of Government, but the parties differ in this: The “ Dem- ocratic” party go for a Tariff’ solely as a Revenue measure. the Whig party for a Tariff to support Northern manufactures.

In condemning the “ minz- mum” principle, which governs in certain | { | cases in estimating duties under the Ta- | | riff, he said that the framers of the Act! had even “resorted to Latin (mnzmum) to deceive the honest people.” Now the | truth is that the word minimum is not used | | once in the Tariff Act of 1842. Can it J | be possible that Mr. Shepard has never read that act? It may be fairly presum- | }ed that he has not, from the ignorance | | evinced by him concerning its provisions | | and language. But about the Latin.— Minimum he seemed to regard as a caba- listic word adopted by the Whigs that | they may rob the people’s pockets with | the greater facility. ‘Therefore, and be- | cause of its Latinity, to be deprecated by | all honest persons. ‘The queerness of the thing, however, was in this; that Mr. | Shepard should, with the most solemn air. | | warn the people against being cheated in _ Latin, when he was at the same time de- 'scanting upon ad valorems with all the _gilibness imaginable. From the specimens here presented of Mr. Shepard's remarks 'on the Tariff, our readers will probably conclude that his whole arguments on that “ Neither mountain, hill, nor elevation subject were of the minimum order, and | troops prompily responded, and carried, ‘=: ir conclusions will not be far out of the4 the enemy’s eungmi she re | the iwa i] n treating of the Raleigh and Gaston | Rail Road, the relief afforded it by the | Legislature, the embarrassed situation of _its affairs, its sale, and purchase by Gov.

One would suppose ‘from his representations that the State | was irretrievably rained through its con- nection with the affairs of that Road, and that Gov. Graham, in purchasing it, had | committed a sin for which he could ex- ‘pect no pardon in this world. ‘And here, ‘in his phillippie against the Legislatare | for essaying to sustain the Road, against the Road company, and Gov. Graham, he resortedig:the arts of the demagogue with an‘easé tat proved him to be well versed in them. He charged that Gov. Graham in giving $363,000 for the Road, “ had ex- pressly and directly violated a command of the Legislature,’ that body having di- rected him, as he, Mr. S:, said to get the Road as low as possible. He had ina previous part offhis speech pronounced Mr. Graham an honest and conscientious | man, so that in our own mind there was ~! some difficulty in reconciling the allega- ‘tion against him with the praise bestow- ed upon him. Gov. Graham purchased the Raleigh | and Gaston Road under a law passed by the Legislature of 1844, "45, which en- joined upon him to bid “a sum not exceed- ing $300,000, gnd the interest unpaid by | the company on the bonds executed.” Jn | November Jast, nearly two months before | r the sale, Gov.

Taylor entered the arthy in 1808, im. mediately after the attack on the Chesapeake, and has been in the service of his country, from that time, to the present. Having entered the army as a lieutenant of infantry he had’ risen to the cétiimand ef a company, at the begin- ning of the [dit war. ; For his gallant defence of, Fort Harrison.on the 5th September, 1812, President Madison conferred upon him the brevet rank of Major, ‘and that is naw the oldest brevet in the army. In 1832, he became the Colonel of the 6th Infantry ; with this regiment he went to Flori- da in 1836, where he was always foremost in danger. On the 25th December, 1837, Col. Taylor | at the head of «a detachment of about 500 men, | composed of parts of the Ist, 4th and 6th regi- 'meots of U. S. Infantry and some Missouri volunteers, met about 700 Indians, under Alli- | gator, Sam Jones and Coa-coo-che, on the | ‘hanks of the O-.ke-cho-bee. ‘This battle was | sought by the Indians, for the day before the en- 'gagement, Col. Taylor received a challenge | ‘from Alligator, telling him where to find him, and bantering him to come on. Col. Taylor | | desired nothing better, and immediately pushed on, atrapid march to the expected battle-ground, | fearful that the wily Indian might change his purpose. The Indians hada strong position in a thick swamp, covered in front by a small stream, whose quicksands rendered it almost impassable, but Col. T. pushed through the quicksands and swamps in the face of a deadly tire from a concealed foe, driving the Iodians before him. ‘The action was long and severe. |The Indians yielding the ground inch by inch, and then only at the+point of the bayonet. Af: terthree hours of bloody contest, the Indians were routed and pursued with great slaughter, until night. This was the last stand the Indi- ans ever made, in a large body, and the‘only in- stance in which they voluntarily gave battle.— Though Co}. Taylor won the day, it wasat the ex- pense of 139, killed and wounded--more than one- fourth of his whole force. ‘Two colonels (Col. Thompson of the 6th Infantry, and Col. Gentry of the Missouri Volunteers,) fell at the head of the troops. Capt. Van Swearinggen and Lieu- tenants Brooke and Centre, also fell in the en- gagement. During the whole of the engagement, Col. Taylor remained on horseback, passing from point to point, cheering his men to the conflict, The spirit with which the commander and all his force entered into the conflict, was exhibited in some verses written on the occasion, bya soldier : ‘ There’s battle in yon hammock black, There’s lightning in yon cloud, Hark! hark! to the music comrades dear, For the Indiaa yell is loud ; For the Indian yell is loud, my boys, And the rifle’s flash is free Bat the field of battle is our home, And happy, happy men are we ; And happy men are we,” &c. For this battle, Mr. Poinsett, Secretary of War, rendered merited praise to all engaged, in his communication to Congress. The bre- vet of Brigadier General was conferred on Col. Taylor, and he was given the chief com- mand in Florida ; which he resigned in 1840, after four or five years arduous and indefatiga- ble service in the swamps and hammocks of | After his retirement from Florida, he was_ assigned to the command of the 1st Depart. | ment of the Army, including the States of Gou- | isiana, Mississippi, Alabama, &c. with his head | His position gave him the command of the | ‘“Army of Occupation,” but the usage of the | service would have justified the Government in | assigning to that command either of the six general officers of the Regular Army, whose | rank is higher than his.

Many additional goods have been | opened and displayed, and so many packages , are hourly expected that it wil! yet be some days | | yore the exhibition can be completely arrang- | ed. | It is particularly gratifying to observe that the numerous visitors who throng the spacious buil- | ding do not parade through it as though they ‘had been brought together from mere motives _ of curiosity to behold a rare and novel spectacle but they are busily employed in examining the | qualities, inquiring the prices, and other cir- | cumstances attending the various specimens of /manufactures ; thus enabling themselves, as | American citizens strongly i ted ‘in the | question, by ascertaining the & ‘the Amer- ican System, to act knowingly upon it. This is all that the manufacturers can require: they can have no more anxious wish than that the Public, the consumers of the articles which they _ produce, should have the means of judging for very safely and confidently trust the question of the eneguragement due to American industry. | The-grand display of richly-ornamented and _classically-executed Household Furniture, im- mediately on our right hand oy entering the Fair, imperatively attracted our attention. The | principal articles forma suit of bedroom furni- | ture, in rosewood and marble, from the manu- factory of Crawford Riddell, of Philadelphia. It consists of a richly-carved and ornamented bedsted, valued by itself at $2,500; two bu- reaus, a cheval glass, wardrobe, washstand, toi- at $8,000. ‘Fhere are other articles of rich furniture from | Mr. Riddell’s manufactory. Messrs. J. & A.

The treaty with Spain it- self, as was shown in the last evening’s Union, treats all such vessels as piratical, and con- demns the offending Spanish seaman to be hung up at the yard arm as a pirate.

THE ELECTION IN N. CAROLINA. The Alexandria Gazette of the 20th instant, makes the following remarks respecting the | election which takes place in this State, in Au- gust next, and which we trust may be fully real- ized. As to the success of our candidate for Governo: we entertain not a doubt: and so far as regards the Legislature, if we do our duty we must carry that body by a triumphant majority. Here are the remarks of the Gazette: ‘ An election takes place this summer in North Car. elina, fur Governor and the Legislature.

The “ Old North State” istrue. Let her take care that her firmness be made an EXAMPLE to all her sister States. The re-election of Govern- or Graham, the present able and efficient Chicf Magistrate, we presume, is secure. The Le- gislature to be chosen, it is important, should be decidedly Whig. It will have to select a Sen- ator of the U. States, and on that account, espe- cially,do we, andthe Whigs, generally, through- out the country, feel doubly interested in the success of the cause. We appeal, then, to the indomitable Whigs of North Carolina, to be ac- tive, vigilant and determined in this matter.— They should remember that they are acting, not only for themselves, but for their whole country—and their exertions should be made to correspond to the honorable expectations which | are excited out of the State. It is not for us to dictate to them, or even to counsel them in their State elections. But we can, without interfer- ence, express to them the interest which is felt for their success, by all who hold their political Opinions, and the ardent hopes that are enter- tained that they will not disappoint the predic. tions of their friends. To unite upon their best and strongest men, in every county in the State, and to return a triumphant majority of Whigs, Will, we trust, be their pleasure, as it will cer- tainly be their duty.

Perhaps a bint may bring this to their mind, and thus a saving be effected. Our author quotes Thaer, who says: A moderate sized common working horse, needs onan average through the whole year, 9} pounds, equal to 73 quarts good oats. -Together with this, he re- quires 9 1-6 pounds of hay, in order to keep Horses require from eight to seventeen quarts of oats, with from seven to ten pounds of hay, owing to size and work required of horses.— ‘“* Many hold that oats is the only grain fit for horses,” and with enough of it and good hay, he is required to do full work. How will the by guess, tally with our mode of feeding in this country? When we feed oats we give a peck, or about nine and a half pounds, (oats weighing 38 pounds,) with two bundles of fodder, or a- bout four to five pounds: when we feed corn, we give a peck per day, or 12 pounds, with over three bundles of fodder. “ As the hay is increased, the grain may be diminished, and vice versa.” Thus, by having an abundance of hay, may we keep our horses on less grain, and no doubt to their advantage, but the ani- mals must have longer time to eat. We know that horses will fatten on crab-grass, why should they not hold their own on the hay well cured from crab-grass, if allowed time to masticate ? That they will, is known to many who have saved crab-grass hay. This brings me now to the point : advising farmers to at once put all hands to saving crab-grass hay. The rains since July have given-fine growth to this grass, and if saved early, there is no doubt but what it will be but little inferior to Timothy, if any. Where it grows in cornfields, a grass-knife can- not be readily used, but a hand can save a hand- some lot by pulling it with the hands; where the grass scythe can be used, it is more expe- ditious. I allow it to lay about a day, then throw up into heaps, let it remain thus for two | nights and a day, then open out to sun ; hay cures better this way, the moderate heating in| heaps makes it sweeter and it cures sooner.— I do not allow it to be spread out to receive the dew at all; it is thus more trouble, but much him in usual-strength for continual labor.”— experience of these Germans, who never work | tful night |, tjew hints.” ‘Phere are many this preseut year : . who, I learp, must be short of corn, and they’.¢g of ¥ 6; ie*thie™ writer, we beli allades.to; the=discovery of Ardent.

In Ireland, corn'was distilled at an early period. he liquor obtained from it, wasiealled “usque- baugh,” from its effect in maddening the brain, and from the word “ usgue,” our word “ whis- key” was derived. Distilleries soon became so numerous, that in the Teign of Philip and Mary, an act was passed, * to rere the mak.’ ing of aqua vite.” This actdimitedthe privi- lege of manufacturing it, to peers.and gentle- men of freehold, unless a special license was obtained. Here we have the commencement of that infernal system, which, with all our light and knowledge, now disgraces our statute 8.

Several prisoners were taken. The latter were asked why their cavalry did not charge? They answered it was impossible to get them to do so after the first repulse, the firing was too hot, the men could not be kept to their arms, but would break and run ; the order to charge was repeatedly given; a few of the cav- alry would advance, but not finding them- selves supported by their comrades, would fall back again to the main body.

He has proved himself wholly deficient for the station, and seems alien to all the elements that make the entleman. Originally a schoolmaster—he has _ brought to the Department the feelings and hab- | its of the worst specimens.of a pedagogue. He _ deserted the pulpit and took to the ranks of po- | litical partizans, where he cheated and deserted | his party. He is pronounced by those who | know him best, a bravo with power and a das- tard without it—a mountebank in manners, | whilst he regards himself a Chesterfield in ele- 'gance. In his intercourse with Congress and | citizens he seems to lie from a love of falsehood, and hugs and courts it as honorable men do truth. We have not space to complete the pic- ‘ture, but, as far as it goes, we appeal to every member of Congress, of both parties, for evi- dence of its faithfulness. It is at no hazard, we say, that his immediate retirement from his pre- sent position would do more to increase confi- dence in the administration than any other sin- gle moyement. ‘The Congress and the country are “Janguishing ” under his conduct of the Navy Department.” The correspondent of the same paper, the Globe, writes from Washington thus : “It is the general impression that the Secre. taries of Navy and War will retire from the Cabinet. Their retirement will meet the unani. | mous response of Congress and the country.” | |OUR LOSS IN THE ENGAGEMENTS WITH THE MEXICANS. In one of his despatches to the government, en’l. ‘Taylor says : It has been quite impossible as yet to furnish detailed reports of our engagements with the /enemy, or even accurate returns of the killed -and wounded. Our loss is not far from 3 offi- cers and 40 men killed, and 13 officers and 100 /men wounded ; while that of the enemy has in all probability exceeded 300 killed ; more than | 200 have been buried by us on the two fields ! | of battle. Gen. T. also says : I am under the painful necessity of reporting that Lt. Blake, topographical engineer, after rendering distinguished service in my staff du- ring the affair of the 8th inst., accidentally shot himself with a pistol on the following day and expired before night. | The Union states that the accounts already | published are substantially confirmed by Gen’l. ‘Taylor. G | }OREGON AND CALIFORNIA EXPE- DITIONS. _ A correspondent of the Missouri Repub- lican writes as follows, from the Indian country, twenty miles west of Indepen- dence under date of the 10th instant: ~~ | The company bound for California is 'composéd of as much intelligence and re- 'spectability, certainly, as ever wended ‘their way to a new country, and the in- tegral are representatives from almost ev- ery State in the Union. “It is impossible to form any thing like -an accurate idea of our number, but it is large—far more than | had dared to hope; I can now count from my present humble seat, over one hundred wagons, and, es- timating each wagon to contain five souls, we have at this encamptment at least five hundred persons—all bound for California.

Emigrants to Oregon and California have been pouring in from _all quarters to this point, which is made their general rendezvous.

He doubtless knows that it was given, not against the men and the money, but against the falsehood which Locofocoism insisted should stand out in the very preamble to the bill, and which the Locofoco majonty We = resameirees base pur , required the igs to vote for, ap See faint the bill. Another Lo- cofoco paper, with an utter ignorance of the whole history’of the country, such as would entitle a school boy of ten years to the birch, declares that the Whigs never did any of the fighting in the wars in which this country has been engaged, and it professes to doubt whether they will do any in this war. The writer of such a libel on one-half of the people of the U. States either never heard of Washington and his revolutionary associates, or of United States either never heard of Wash- ington and his’revolutionary associates, or of Scott, and Taylor, and Clinch, and the thousands of other gallant spirits of the last war,—or, he wrote the libel knowing it to be a libel. Again: The Union of Thursday night last says.— “The present ebullitions of the whig organs are ominous of a determined and desperate attack upon the administratian. Such was the course of the federal press in the war of.1842 ; and we shallscarcely be surprised to‘see them now, as then, in- voking the f tion of an organized op- position--calling forth another Hartford convention perhaps, and urging their mem- bers of Congress to refuse supplies for car- rying on the war.” And this was penned by the Editor of the Union only two days after the House of Representatives had passed, by a unan- imous vote, 191 to 00, the bill appropria- ting more than six millions of dollars to support the army, being two millions more than usual, and, including the ten millions | originally appropriated, making an in- crease of twelve millions already caused by the war with Mexico. Now what is the object of all these li- bellous attacks on the Whig party? It cannot be any desire to produce unanimi- ty and a hearty support of the war? That | object would be promoted by a directly | opposite treatment. No: the object isto drive the Whig party, if possible, into the adoption of that very course with which | they are now falsely charged. And the end to be gained by thus arraying one half of the people against the country in this its time of trial, is the great, the patriotic purpose, of electing some Locofoco dema- gogue, Polk or Cass perhaps, President of the United States in 1848!! And for this it is that the Union and its satelites are endeavoring to array the Whigs against the country. But they will be disappointed. The Whigs will not only vote all the necessa- ry supplies,—(ananimeusly .when not. cov- pled with a falsehood)—but they will iran the battles of their country too.—There is one thing, however, that they will not do. They will not support Polk and his party which have unnecessarily plunged us in this war. They make a distinction be- tween the Administration and the Coun- try. The latter they are always ready to support and defend.— Fay. Observer. him, as well as the war, in which he has un. constitutioually, unadvisedly, and rashly engag- ed us.

The letter speaks for itself, Tt is regretted that Mr. Partee could not obtain his consent to run. But all seem, to feel satisfied that he has good and important reasons for not doing so, otherwise he could not have refused a compliance with the many warm solicita- tions of his friends. — Mr. Ricaarp Locke has also declined the same honor conferred by the same meeting. This too, is seriously regretted ‘very much turned to him. But Mr. Locke _by his Whig brethren, for their hearts were was nominated without having been pre- viously consulted, and was therefore un- prepared for it. If it had been possible for him to accept the nomination we be- lieve he would have done so; and we speak in all candor when we say it, there is not a man in the whole ranks that would have been more acceptable to the party than he. - Bat notwithstanding these discouraging /and settled minds,—whose characters are | fully established, and could have no need of uselessly taking up time in political | Ta | forts to promote their wellfare.

A GLORIOUS TRIUMPH. One of the greatest victories ever gain- ed has lately been achieved by the Peop! of the State of New York. Not over foreign enemy invading oar country—no over any political party, but over King Alcohol. An election was recently held in that State, at which it was decifed by large majorities that the present system of granting licenses for the sale of spirituous liquors should cease. This is regarded by all the public journals and all good men as one of the greatest moral triumphs ot record, and which, all who desire to set every man earn his bread honestly, hearti- ly rejoice over. Long may.the good ple of the Empire State -enjoy -the ie of this glorious triumph over the most de- structive enemy they have. In Brook- lyn, the majority against License was over 2,000 votes.

The investigating committee make slow work, but the committee to investigate facts in rela- tion to Mr. Ingersoll, will report at an early day. The disbursing clerk, (Mr. Stubbs) will proba- bly be regarded as one of the principal offend- ers, and will no doubt lose his office. Mr. Ty- ler will have certain interrogatories submitted to him, to answer in writing, (the other com. mittee have summoned him in person to be pre- sent. ) Mr. Adams, Mr. J. Y.

This subject, from long delay, lost much of its interest, but the time of reporting will give it freshness. Mr. Webster will be entirely acquitted, and the charges fall with se- vere indignation upon the heads of those who made them. One of the specifications you will remember, was the corruption of the public press. This is entirely disproved. The only money paid to any press was for printing some blank forms of petitions, Mr. Tyler, I learn, was expected to reach the city this evening. I hear it said this evening that in conse- quence of Gen. Taylor’s great success, he will be suffered to remain at the head of the army. The law introduced by Mr. Berrien, of Ga., to-day in the Senate provides that the receiving of any letters of marqye from any foreign Prince or State, in violation of treaty with the United States shall be punished as piracy, and the circuit courts of the United States are em- powered to try and determine accordingly. The President to-day nominated Gen. Tay- lor to the Senate as Brevet Major-General, and the nomination wds unanimously confirmed by the Senate, WasurineTon, May 27. The National Fair continues to draw crowds of risiters to the city, and the evening and day exhibitions are both crowded, The sehool chil- dren visited the Fair to-day, to the number of jmminent. five or six hundred.

The following speculations, from one of the most enlightened of the Democratic journals which support the measures of the Adminstration, cannot fail to interest our readers at the present moment: «Jf, as some seem to expect, the demon- stration of strength which the U. States have made on the Rio Grande should dis- courage the Mexican Government in the further prosecution of the war, and lead them to accept an envoy from our Gov- ernment, the war will have been brought to a speedy and fortunate termination.— We earnestly hope that this will be the result, both for the interest of the two na- tions concerned and for the interest of hu- manity. Qn the other hand, should ani- mosity of the Mexican population towards this country disincline their Government to an immediate accommodation, the close of the war may be adjourned to a very distant day. We incline to believe that the war will either be a very short ora very long one. . “The temper of the native Mexicans, a race consisting mostly of aborigines or of mixed breeds with a large infusion of original blood, is that of dogged endurance. The nation has no commerce for us to ha- rass or plunder; the productions of the country suffice for their imperfect state of civilization; they have no magazines of provision for an invader to seize, and if they were deliberately to adopt the poli- cy of attempting to weary us out with that sort of flying and desultory hostilities which in their language are called by the term guerilla, we may have a war of long duration before us.” A letter from an Officer of the Army to his friend in this citty, dated at Point Isa- bel on the }4th instant, after describing the late bravely fought actions, says :— “The Military Academy is in the ascend- ant. The imbecility of the old, and the luxurious and matrimonial life of the young have gloriously vindicated their character from the aspersions which have been cast upon them in high places.” - fe: Obvituary. DIED in Salisbury,‘on Tuesday, May 26, Mrs. Lov- iss Horan, aged 49 years, consort of William H. Ho- rah, Esq., after a protracted and painful illness of near- ly twelve months, supposed to be a disease of the lungs. Mrs. Horah was a consistent member of the Presbyte- rian Church for many years,—giving evidence at all times, by her daily walk, that she loved, and served her Redeemer. Although she was naturally retiring in her disposition, and domestic in her habits—mingling less with the world than many others, still her light was not concealed. All who knew her, were led to believe that Jesus. She seemed to be’ convinced early in the pro- gress of her disease, that her end was fast approaching, but manifested no fear.. She gave all to understand that her little children, which needed a mother’s care, were the time. And as she still approached the crisis, her faith seemed to triumph in a remarkable manner. When asked by her pastor if she could realize the fact, that Jesus Christ was then peculiarly her Saviour, she replied in the affirmative ; and repeated in a low, but distinct tone of voice, the verse, ‘‘ Jesus can make a dying bed,” &c., Again she exclaimed as in a triumph, “ O it isa blessed thing to die when our sins are pardoned.” Thus departed one truly loved by all who knew her, leaving a mourn and weep over an irreparable loss.—[Com.

The following more than semi-official disclosure of the views and purposes of the Administration in its war with Mexi- co is so frank and fall, that the Public to be enabled to make up its opinion of their merits, requires only to know, in ad- dition, from the same authority, what it is, on the part of the Mexican Republic, that the Executive would consider as mani- festing “a sense of justice.”—Nat.

But is itso?. No. Itis just the reverse. The more considerate of the Locofoco party regret his being the candidate, knowing that Mr. Shepard is young and of moder- ate talents, but possessing a very high opin- ion of his own importance. The Stan- dard really seems to have forgotten eve- ry thing like reason, and has become as rampant about the election as if it belong- ed bag and bagage to Mr. Shepard.

The state of affairs between the coun- | atry and Mexico, excites much interest in Paris. A correspondent of the European Times, says: = | “From what I can collect, I am of the | opinion that if the United States, at pres- | ent, Were to attempt to conquer Mexico, even to annex any considerable portion of | its territory, they would cause great dis- bility, would have to encouuter the deci- ded hostility of the French Government. | A reference to M. Guizot’s very remark- | able speeches on the Texan question will show that France attaches very great im- portance to the preservation of Mexico as a seperate nation; and that, apart from that consideration, it would regard unfa- vorably any further aggrandisement of the United States. Mr. Polk, it is true, has declared that neither France nor England shall interfere in the affairs of the Amer- ‘ican affairs ; but, then, Mr. Guizot has al- so declared in the most forfnal manner, in the name of France, that it will, in spite of Mr. Polk, interefere as often, and in such- manner, as it pleases in American _ affairs. ‘ I say again, then, that my- opinion is that any seizure of Mexican territory by My, Cedar the United States Government would be an & stoutly ebjected to by France and nodonbt also by England.” | The Washington papers anpounce the déath of Com- modore Renshaw, in this city. j satisfaction in France; and, in all proba- ' distribution and paying the debts of Abner Burke, dec’d, One containing 120 Acres, nine- ty of which is cleared, and five acres good meadow, the whole in fine cultivation, with a dwelling house, a good | barn and thrashing machine.

When properly introduced, they nearly double the value of the mill, and in quantity of work generally far exceed the most sanguine expectations of the owners, many of whom are gentlemen distinguished for their sci- ence and practical skill, who have attested to the value of this improvement. The wheels are more durable, and more easily kept in order, when properly: put ‘to- gether, than the common flutter wheel. They will save one-third of the water, and.run well in back water when there is a head above. The speed of. the saw is increas- ed to more than double the strokes per minute. pa price of an individual right for one pair of wheels, is $50. : We refer, among others, to the following gentlemen, some of whom had the wheels in operation 12 months or more, and from many of whom we have received certi- it N eonsequence of the very great popularity. which these wheels have attained by the use of nearly 4000 their saws, with this improvement, cut 2500, 3000, 3500, and even as high as 5000 feet a day, according to the head of water. - .

THE LAST MYSTERY OF PARIS.

The account has filled the-F'aubdarg St. German with consterna- tion, ~ Several months since, says the Courier Erancais not far from the end of last De- r,,Dr. Huberti was returning to his vat eleven o'clock in’ evening ; ashe was about to knock at the door, iad’ raised the kicker for that pur- poséphis band was all at once arrested by arm, and -he was surrounded ree masked men. *The street was that all resistance would be in vain, red to escape, as well as he could, | * Monsieur, is, if 1 mistake not, Dr. Hu- Les # It seems you know me then,” replied™ the Doctor ; “take my purse. and watch, | Jet-me enter my house, and go about your “business.” : “Sir.” replied the man, haughtily, “ we are not robbers, but have come to ask you to do us a service.” a* You certainly, have selected a very sthgalar hour.” & Any hour is good enough for so skilful a as yourself to perform an ope- ration.” sire?” said the Doctor, h have your case That is all that yesuifer us to put this reyes.” - sbegone,” said then whiftled, drove from a “ rene words, and le ‘of the unknown. aad, immediately a_ berlin neighboring street; the t the doctor with them; imm pfed. the Doctor had no'arms, and see- | of his purse, from the three ban- | a severa a large room, pay ‘haps a vestibule, and af-erw ‘apartments covered with thick cam | At length the guide of M.

The window curtains were closely drawn, as were those also of an alcove at the bot- tom of the room. In this room the Doctor ‘found himself alone with one 6f the three unknown who had arrested him.

It was the hand of a woman, small, admirably | formed, and its delicate whiteness was set’ off by a magnificent ruby, , diamonds. __ * But,” cried the doctor, “ there is noth- ing that calls for amputation, nothing.” | And I tell you,” cried the unknown, vi- _olently, “that if the surgeon refuses me, | will do his office myself :” and seizing a surrounded by | hatchet which was at the foot of the bed, | ihe placed the hand-upon the table pre- pared to cut it oft.

A | the elite of the titled fashionables crowded thither: ;The great names of France el- ’ “wandered through the saloons, in an anx- 'jous manner, and then sadly withdrew from among the crowd. This young man chanced, in the course to stand in frontof M. Ho- | of the evening, | ed upon him, and rested with a frightful expression upon the ring which shone a- | bove his waistcoat. | Suddenly, the young man passed ab- ‘roptly through the greup that separated him from the-deetor; he went straight up 'to M. Huberti..and jostled him rudely and in a deliberate manner. The doctor very politely expostulated. The young man, without making any) _by this scene may be easily judged. A duel is to take place between this young man and the doctor. We are guilty of no indiscretion in speaking of this affair, which is known to all Paris. Before the | police can read this feuilleton, the duel | will have taken place, and very probably it will give rise to explanations that may | throw some light upon this mysterious af- | fair, and upon the sad history in which | Doctor Huberti has becn one of the ac- | tors. . The Brussels Observateur gives the fol- lowing explanation of this mysterious and horrible adventure : Truth is strange—stranger than fiction. —This the following relation will prove: It turns out that the story recently pub- lished, of the hand cut off, and which was so strongly tinctured with the jealous Hi- _dalgo, the revengeful Spaniard, and which our readers supposed to be designed as | some puff, and which, we confess, we did not ourselves believe, so little it seems like Paris, is nevertheless truae—true from one end to the other. One of the actors of this sad affair has been in Brussels the last two days. It is from him that we ‘have the particulars, which we hasten to relate. The young Matilda de , (our readers will understand why we do not indicate her name, even by her initials,) is the daughter of ene of the most distinguished soldiers of the empire. Her father gained an elevated station, glory and high grade in the army; but is one.of the few gener- whom the emperor did not enrich. Ma- | tilda had therefore no fortune to give her | husband. Napoleon De is the grandson of | the noble Duchess De » The Duch- _ess has only her rank, an empty title, with- t fortune. The Duchess and the Gen- ral, who had Jong been friends, and pro- mised each other the union of their chil- | dren, but they soon repented of it. While | | Matilda and Napoleon loved each other, ‘the General and the Duchess, both uneasy -as tothe welfare of their children, and looking somewhat to their own interest, performed together a scene borrowed from ' genteel comedy. “If my daughter,” said the General, |“ marries this poor devil of a Napoleon, then farewell to all chance of luxury or pleasure ?” “If my grandson,” said the Duchess, “marries a maiden without a dowry, how shall we ever be able to restore the dig- nity of our noble house.” The General, therefore, sought to alien- 'Napoleon and Matilda loved each other too sincerely not to avoid all the shares | ‘that weie spread for their inexperienced | youth. | Unable to succeed in separating them from each other, the General and the Duchess succeeded in bringing about the departure of Napoleon, and his pro- longed absence. Their want of fortune required it. Napolean must gaina high position. The Minister had just attached him, as Secretary, to a distant embassy. If he refused to go, he would shut him out from a brilliant career. He must make this sacrifice for the very sake of | his Matilda, for whose happiness he would be responsible. Napoleon resigned him- self to it. He sought a last interview with Matil- da, and announced his departure. The young girl heard with grief. Napoleon related to her his plans in vain he sought | to console her, -displaying, in the dist- | ‘ant future, a whole life of happiness, | love and wealih. Matilda was inconso- | ‘lable; a sad presentiment prevented her’ from putting any trust in the promise of: an uncertain future. What could she | hope to add to the happiness they then, enjoyed, and which they were. about to! sacrifice to a duty. She felt that her he, “ remember that you are my betrothed —that this.hand belongs to me.” So saying; he placed a ruby ging on her * _ate Matilda from her lover, and the Duch- | ess to separate Napoleon from Matilda. | But in this they wefe unsuccessful.— | ; ithe arm.

Exhausted by her efforts, she hastened to shut. herself up in her own apartment, and weep in si- lence. Inthe meanwhile, the banns are published, and on the 10th of last January, in,the church of St. Thomas d’Aquin, Ma- tilda married the Count de——. The General was delighted. At the moment of the benediction, when the husband places on the finger of his | wife the ring—the symbolical emblem of | the chain which unites them—instead of | giving the left hand, according to custom, Matilda abruptly passed to the right of the. Count, and extended her other hand. The | Count remonstrated. and wished to take | her left hand, but Matilda withdrew it, and again presented her right hand, at the | same time casting down her eyes, but) with an indomitable air of submissive determination. The Count at once per- ceived this, and fearing a scene, he put the ring on her right hand, which Matil- da persisted in presenting. ~The Count was jealous—as jealous as Othello himself. A fatal suspicion seized him. The ring which Matilda wore on her left hand, gave him much uneasiness. | He pretended not to fancy it*and begged Matilda not to wear it. Matilda replied | that she would not part with it—her an- swer was ‘gentle, but evinced the same determination she had shown atthe church. The suspicions of the Count from that moment were changed into certainty ; but as he wished to avenge himself he con- | cealed them. He aranged a set of spies | about Matilda. It was not long before a | letter came from Napoleon. The unfor- tunate young man, ignorant of the sacri- fice of Matilda, and the ruin of his hopes | spoke of his love, his plans for the future and their approaching marriage. He re- minded Matilda that her hand was his, and he begged her to look often upon his mother’s ruby ring, to remind her of him. | He finished by announcing a piece of good news. ‘The ambassador was about to en- trust him with important despatches for | Paris. Before the month was. over, he | would see Matilda again. This letter of | Napoleon’s fell into the Count’s hands; he | understood it all. | He went into his wife’s room, Méldin | in his hand the open letter; he handed it | toher. “ ].understand,your scruples now,” | said he ; “why did you not explain your- | self sooner? You had sworn that your. hand should be only his. Very well, as | soon he comes, 1 will see that you keep: your oath,” he added, with a frightful - smile. Matilda did not betray the slightest e- motion. She feared nothing more upon earth. A month afterwards, Napoleon | arrived in Paris. But he wag much changed; healready knew.hismisfortunes. | and was gloomy and despairing. The. morning of the day after his arrival, a small ebony coffer was brought to him by a domestic in livery. He opened it.— Judge of his grief andterror! It contain- | ed a bloody hand, It was the hand of a woman—of Matilda. On a piece of blood-stained paper were these words: “See how the Countess de keeps | her oath.” | Flushed with mingled grief and indig- | | | | | nation, he seized his pistols and rushed to the house of the Count. | Matilda had left during the night, some The counf and hours after the bloody operation of Dr. Huberti. It was not known whither they ad gone. The evening on which Napoleon had révoguised the ring of his mother on the watch of Dr. Huberti, he had gone to the ball, impelled by asecret presentiment. The next day, Napoleon and Huberti fought in the woods of Vincennes. The Doctor, more skillful with the knife than the sword, was severely wounded under Hopes are entertained of his sary, he related what occurred on that ern- el night,on which he had been forced by a fegling of humanity to cainmit aerime.— « BRides,” headded. “ Mati!}da didnot suf- fer much.

When I bad finished, ] heard her say in a low tone, behind the curtain that eoncealed her from me: Tell him my heart will go with my hand. But for the ruby [ never should have been enabled to fulfil her wish.” Compclled to fly, to escape being arrest- ed on account of the duel, Napoleon de is now in Brussels. © Poor young man!

To indicate this and its union with | Simms’ Magazine, the titles of the separate works will be blended in ‘ The,Southern and Western Literary Mes- | senger and Review ;” retaiming the features of each, but improving them as far as practicable. Whilst it will be distinctively the advocate of the South and West, its mot- to willbe “Inthe Union,and for the Union! In the South, and for the South and West !” It will be published simaftaneously in Charleston and in Richmond. ‘The snbscribers to Simms’ Magazine es- pecially, and the friends ef Southern and Western Liter- ature, and the public generally, are invited to enlist in its behalf. The aid of Mr. Simms has been'secared, not only as contributor, but in the Critical and Editorial Department; | and other Soathern and Western contributors will be ad- ded to those already engaged forthe Messenger. Com- munications for the “ Messenger and Review ” may be sent to the office in Richmond. Each number of “ Messenger and Review” will con- tain 64 super-royal octavo pages, filled with the choieest Syikolye Biography, istory, Biography, Papers on the Army, Navy, and other National Affairs, and discussions of a!l questions affecting the Rights, In- terests and Institutions of the South and West. The subscription price will be $5, but the work. will contain very near!y twice as much matter as Simms, Ma- | gazine, and be published in an elegant style, like the pres- ent Messenger. Those indebted to the Magazine, will please niake im- mediate payment. &7 50 will be taken in full for sub scription due to Simms’ Magazine, and for the “ Messén- ger and Review,” for 1846.

Ife considers that, great as is the antiquity of the revolving grindstone the file must have preceded it, and refers in confirmation of this opinion, to the first book of Samuel (chap. xiii, 5, 2!,) in which the file is mentioned as the means of shar- ening the mattocks, cuitlers, and other edged instruments of Israclites. Ile also refers to a passage inthe (lysscy, in which Vulcan is represented as using the ham- mer and file in fabricating the net in which he entangled Mars and Venus, as a proof of ihe great antiquity of this tool. # Piles always are, or should be, made of steel of superior quality, as there are few instruments in which a defect in the Metal is so completely destructive of util- ity. Anaxe,saw 0: almost any other cut- ting instrument, though of inferior metal, may be made to do duty by repeated whet- best information ting; but for a bad file, as Holland ob-— serves, there is no remedy—no process of restoration. ‘Let it.’ he says, be too soft, and immediately on application, the whole toothed surfiice of the file is crushed down, and ceases to be of any use for its intend- ed purpose ; if too hard, on the other hand the teeth, as they come into contact with the body to be acted upon, fly off with eve- ry stroke ; the file theneeforward becom- ing, if not quite useless, certainly a coarse irregular rubber.’ ‘ The importance, there- fore, of a guarantee of excellent quantity gives a high value to files bearing the marks of manufacturers of established re- putation, and leads unprincipled trades- men to imitate them. ‘One of the most famous of these marks,’ Holland observes, ‘ was that granted many years ago by the corporation of Shellield to Daniel Bram- maj! ; and as an illustration of its value may be mentioned the fact, that in 1825 the rightful user obtained a verdict of £2000 damages against a Birmingham file maker for having struck it fraudulently on articles made by himself.’ “Several highly ingenious machines have been contrived for superseding the tedious operation of file-cutting by hand, but we believe no file cutting engine has been brought successfully into operation. One very serious dilliculty arises trom the circumstances, that.it one part of the file be either a little softer than the adjacent parts, or narrower, So as to present less resistance to the blow of the hammer, a machine would, owning to the perfect uni- formity of its stroke, make a deeper cut there than elsewhere: ‘whereas,’ as Dodge observes, ‘a workman who has been em- ployed in the trade from a boy (and none others, it is said, can acquire the requisite skill,) can fecl instantly when he arrives at any variation in the quality or condi- tion of stecl, and at once adapts the weight of his blow to it.’ purpose, observes, that the applicability of an apparatus to the toothing of ex- tremely fine faced files seem conccivable because ‘in such the se¢ or direction of the teeth is a matter of much less impor- tance than perfect equality of surface ; thus intimating that a great difficulty a- rises in the apparently attainabs@ point.— ‘The double dead-cut files of the French, he adds, ‘ exhibit such a beautiful uniform- ity of delineation when examined with a magnifier, that no doubt seems to be en- tertained, by many persons conversant with the art, or their being cut by machine- ry ofsomesort. Dut although the French are so successful in the production of this exquisitely delicate cutting. they are not equally so in the execution of the rougher sorts; and, consequently English files are in high reputation in Paris, whither large quantites are regularly transmitted. The writer mentions a [*rench manufacturer of watchmakers’ files, some of which, cut in the common manner, but with exquisite neatness, by his daughters, were regarded with suspicion by many, simply from the opinion that they must be machine cut. “During the war of the French revolu- tion, the supply of English files being im- Holland, after describ- | ing one of the machines contrived for this | according to their size, of the best cook- - oo —ee — S a en = GEN.

The Washington Union declares that the ' Mexican war constitutes no reason for re- | fusing to reduce the tariff, because there ‘is a surplus of twelve millions, and less than this sum is to do all the needful in regard to Mexico.

You will forthwith revoke any calls you may have made on states for vol- untecrs or malitia, beyond the number al- ready sent into Texas, or to Gen. Taylor under these calls.” In a subsequent letter he was again written to as follows: “ Your action in calling for or receiving volunteers, inde- | pendent of the instructions of this depart- ment, and beyond the requisitions of Gen. Taylor, is wholly unauthorized and ille- gal; and youare again instructed not on- ly to stay all such proceedings, but to re- call any requisitions, you have made, and act no further upon the subject, without special authority first had from this de- partment.” * * * “Since writing the a- bove, it is understood that staff_appoint- ments, such as paymasters, quartermas- ters, inspectors, &c., have been conferred by you on citizens. Such appointments are altogether illegal, and will not be ' confirmed or recognized,” Thus it will be perceived that the ac- tion of the war department in regard to ‘the extraordinary conduct of Gen. Gaines /was prompt and decisive, and in no re- spect can the government here be charged with, or made responsible for, the mischief which may ensue. 1 | Requsitions for Volunteers.—The follow- _ing tables will show the number of volun- | teers which have been called for from the | several States by the President of the U.

The advanced guard was composed of about 200 men, one half under Capt. Smith (commander of the ca- dets whea I wasat West Point) and the othe: under Capt. McCall, 4th infantry. Capt.

Tle Doctor has concluded not to cut It out, as . . . ° ryY he says it wil] not inconvenience me any. The next morning I (with the help of a stick) walk- ed about a little, but at every turn, I met dead bodies. ‘The 8th was ordered to march into this place that morning ; but none were allow- ed to go but those that could march, I wanted to get away from the infernal slaugh- ter-house so much that I determined to march so with the help of a couple of sticks, and felt more supple for my walk. The Mexicans, I | hear, estimate their killed in this last fight at | 900, and have 750 wounded in their hospital on the other side. One hundred and thirty wounded and killed were picked up by our men on the line of their retreat. Yesterday Kane and other prisoners that were taken some time since, were exchanged. I saw Kane yester- day, as he rode past behind a Mexican officer, on his way to be exchanged. He was looking well, and says they could not be better treated. He said that we had annihilated the Mexican army. ll the dragoons say there was such a panic in the town when the runaways came in, that 200 men could have taken it with ease.

N consequence of the very great popularity which these wheels have attained by the use of mearly 4000 | of them in different parts of the country, the subscribers have sold about 106 Rights in North Carolina, thirty of | which are in ful] and successful operation in Cumberland _ county. When properly introduced, they nearly double the value of the mill, and in quantity of work generally far exceed the most sanguine expectations of the owners, many of whom are gentlemen distinguished for their sci- | ence and practical skill, who have attested to the value of | this improvement. it. The wheels are more durable, and more easily kept in order, when properly put to- gether, than the common flutter wheel. They will save one-third of the water, and run well in back water when there is a head above. The speed of the saw is increas- ed to more than double the Strokes per minute. The price of an individual right for one pair of wheels, is $50. We refer, among others, to the following gentlemen, some of whom had the wheels in operation 12 months or more, and from many of whom we have received certi- ficates highly approving of these wheels, and stating that their saws, with this improvement, cut 2500, 3000, 3500, and even as high as 5000 feet # day, according to the head of ‘water.

A further view of the intelligence brought the last Boston steamers does not disclose an thing of interest in addition to what wee re lished in Saturday’s paper. The Boston ly Advertiser remarks that— & Sq ‘** No event of matked importance had oceur. red since the departure of the Great Western,” if we except the progress of the insurrection in Portugal. This movement had been suncess- ful as to assame the character of a revolution. |The leading Minister, Cabral, had resigued, * and his resignation had been accepted; and #0 °¢ new Government had been formedat our last © advices. ‘The Queen had not disturbed, _in the exercise of her power at Lisbon,ut ma- ny of the provinces were in the hands of the, in-. surgents. “ American affairs, and particularly the ‘ex. isting wag’ with Mexico, form #°t fre. quent disCussion in the English and h pa- pers, but no news had been received from this side of the water later than that carried out by the Cambria of the first crossing of the Rio Giande by the Mexican forces, and the subse- quent alarm throughout the United States, and. therefore the speculations of the press aré hot pest applicable to the present state of airs.” « % \The most important item which we fiod in the newspapers in connexion with the news. bréught by this arrival—viz. that igpiroctions hare been sent out to Mr. PakenhatW¥ profiler — the mediation of Great Britain betwees the ~ AG.
