The truth is, the conduct of the adnifnistra- tion in this matter has been as little creditable to itself as to the country.

The candidates for the office of Sheriff took the lead, and we suppose made short work of it. The candidates for Senate followed. We were late gets ting out, and, consequently, lost the most interesting part of the debate. When we arrived Mr. Fraley. was just about clos- ing, as we understood, a very long speech. We only heard. a few words from him in | Opposition.to the Penitentiary. Dr. Sam- uel Kerr, his opponent for the Senate, fol- lowed in a few energetic remarks on the subject of the Tariff, &c., noticing the old exploded doctrine which Mr. Fraley had endeavored to pass off. These gentlemen were followed by the candidates for the Commons, led by Dr. P. Henderson, Maj. Ellis succeeding him, and Mr.Fisher speak- ing last. Our friend Mr. Isaac Ribelin, from some cause unknown to us, was not present. Doct. Henderson, it is needless to say, acquitted himself according to the expectations of every body who knows as the tocsin of impending war. England bris- tled up, and her premier emphatically declared | that she was prepared to ‘fnaintain her rights. | Congress assembled, and, again, Mr. Polk pro- | claimed that we must fake possession of the | whole of Oregon.

Those who recollect how this question was handled by the leaders of Locofocoism, as an elec- tioneering hobby, would suppose they would hang their heads in shame at their failure to expel Great Britain from Ore- : gon—for having surrendered uphalfof that country which was so strenuously claim- ed by them as ours.

It stands infinitely before alf the preparations or combinations of Mercury. Its purgative properties are alone of incalculable value—tor Pills may be taken daily for any period, and instead a weakening by the cathartic eflect, they add strength. by taking away the cause of weakness There ig no’ good Mercury does, which these Pills do not tikewiee. But they have none of the miserable effeets of that dead- ly specific. - The TEETH are not injured—the Bowes and limbs are paralyzed—no—but in the stead of these dis- tressing symptoms, new life and consequent animation is evident in every movement of the body. Brandreth’s Pills are indeed a Univers] Remedy, for they cure op- posite diseases: they cure InrLamation and Cueroric Ruevmarism! They cure Disserts or Usixe. They cure Dysentery and ConsrirvTioxaL CosTIvEeNEss.— They will cure all these apparently opposite diseases, be- cause they clense and purify the blood, , howev- - ‘er, nature is not beyond ail human ASSISTANCE. .° & NUMBER TWO, and occupied fof a humber of years as | owned In all cases they will-be found a safe and simple reme- , a Store by Mr. Cress. ‘This is one of the best stands fur a store in this town.

The collision between our for- ces and those of Mexico took place on the 24th of April, and the subject was brought before us on the 11th of May, seventeen days after the event.

TAYLOR IN THE, LAST WAR. The New York Telegraph rescues from | oblivion the following incident, in which | Gen. Taylor was engaged during the last | | war. “On the 3d of September, 1812, soon af- | ter the beating of the retreat at Fort Har- | -rison, inthe then territory of Indiana, of | _which post Captain Taylor was in com- ‘mand, four guns were heard to fire ata short distance, in a direction which left | no doubt that two young men who had | gone out a few hundred yards to make hay, had been attacked. A portion of the Prophet’s party was supposed to be in the | neighborhood. Captain Taylor having not more than fifteen or sixteen men fit | for service, probably waited till morning when he sent out a small party with a Corporal to learn the facts, cautioning them against an ambuscade, as he recent- ly did Captain Thornton. , | The bodiesof the young men were found dreafully mutilated, cold and stiff, and brought in and buried. A communication of a threatning char- ‘acter was then sent in with a white flag ‘from the Prophet’s party, which satisfied Capt. Taylor that he was to be attacked; “he accordingly. made his preparations. He personally examined the mens arms to ascertain their condition, distributed sixteen rounds per man, and though just recovered from a severe atlack of fever, ‘saw for himself every disposition made that the emergeseY required. A non- -comminioned officer was ordered to walk around the ivcerior of the f ‘night, to sive the alarm, if the sentinel ‘should net; and though it was well un- ‘derstood the post could not very well be | defended by its small and enfeebled gar- ison, Capt. Taylor resolved not to sur- ‘render it while he lived. At about 11 o’clock at night the Capt. was called from his quartars by his order- ly and informed that the Indians had suc- ceeded in firing the lower block house.— ding contaifed in the lower sec- t | | ed the picked and ran a moment which teste ties of Capt.

Stevenson, of this | city, has received authority from Washington—with the | sanction, we presume, of Governor Wright—to enlist in | this city a regiment of volunteers, to be employed in the | Service against Mexico, wherever the War Depar:ment | may judge proper to send it.

THE SUB-TREASURY. The plan of a Sub Treasury now before Congress is | a very complicated machine ; one, I will venture to say, | that very few understand, except its projectors. But | there is a Sub-treasury that has been, and now is, in suc- cessful operation ; simple in its parts,and well under- | stood, not only by the statesman, but all men in busi- | | gate. They have the happy effect of safely keeping the | hard money—that is, the constitutional money—im the | country. Indeed, they have got to that prosperous ex- | tent that they have become an article of exportation, and | consequently bring money into the country. It is now | proposed by the Anti-Tariff gentlemen to reduce the | protection given to these manufactories ; and, if money | should be wanted for the extraordinary purposes of Go- vernment on account of our Mexican war, the deficien- | cy is to be supplied by the importation of foreign goods. | But does it not follow that these goods must be paid for / , which, with the expenses of our unfortunate war with Mexico, will drain the country of all its hard money ;— will oblige the banks to curtail their discounts, and con- sequently produce general distress in the mercantile com- munity. “ Let the Tariff alone, and borrow money,” is the advice of COMMON SENSE: a 1846.

[To be. continued.} THE OPPOSING GENERALS, TAYLOR AND ARISTA. The editor of the New Orleans Tropic, just returned from camp, is giving pleasant episodes in the history of the army of occupation, and says :—The contrast of the two commanding Generals, Taylor and Arista, in the pomp and | circumstance of war was characteristic of the different institutions under which they lived.— There is a semi-barbaric splendor associated with Arista’s, according with the despotism of the Mexican government. A sitnplicity about | of ‘Taylor’s,- equally significant of pure Republi- can institutions. The marquee of the commanding General of ‘the Mexican forces was bell-shaped, and of great size.* ‘The material of which it was com- posed, was ornamented by parti-colored stripes, giving ita holiday appearance. Around it were stationed gaily dressed officers who glistened in the sun, and were ever ready to pay the most ab- Ject respect to their chief. Led horses richly caparisoned slowly paced in sight. Protecting its rear, like continued labarynthian walls, were arranged the equipage of the camp. Pack sad- dles for five hundred mules were tastefully plac- up in prodigal confusion. ‘To the poor Mexican soldier bivouacked in the open air, this wealth seemed a vision of fairy land, and its conven. tional possessor, rich beyond their imagination, and powerful beyond comparison.

With this view, an order has been issued from the Navy Department for a council of 20 of the most experienced captains to assemble in Washington ‘Tuesday next, to devise measures, and to determine upon the “plan of operations. | From what I have been able to gather, it seems | the conclusion is foregone, and the council will be required, not to discuss the policy of the movement, but to furnish practical suggestions for carrying it out.

But the subject was one of the gravest importance ; it was called by some the great question of the day.

Weshould al- ways hesitate long to disturb a policy which has received the constant approba- Non of the nation. To the principles and practice of our Revolutionary statesman who were conversant with the earl y wants of our country, and established the con- sulutional forms of free Government un- der which we havg so long lived and pros- pered, do we owe anespecial deference and respect. The most imperative reasons, founded on considerations of absolute na- tional Independence, demonstrate the ne- cessity of an early adoption of the frinci- Ple of a fair and reasonable encourage- ment to domestic industry. The pream- ble of the second act passed by the first Congress declared that “ whereas it is ne. Cessary for the support of the Government for the discharge of the debt's of the United . States and the encouragement and pro- a] ection of manufactures, that the duties » be laid on goods, wares, and merchan- “aise imported,” &c. This act “Was ap- Proved and signed on the 4th of July, 1789 » 89, by George Washington, the Father of 8 Country, and voted for by James Madi- ,80n, the ablest and best expounder of our constitution. Onthe’8th of January, 1790, eneral Washington used the following Janguage in his first annual address to ongress : “ The safety and interest of the people require that they should promote Sach manufactures as tend to render them Independent of others for essential, espe- , cially military supplies.” And in his last Paddress. onthe 7th of December, 1796, Gen. Washington, in’ continuation of the ‘ame policy he had always supported and Urged before Congress, used the following language : “Congress has repeatedly, and hot Without success, directed their atten- Mon to the encouragement of mantfac- “lures,: The object is of too much conse- quence not to ensure a continuance of | eir efforts in ev that power, that it is difficult to suppose the existence of the one without the other. The States have delega- ted their whole authority over imports to the General ' Government, without limitation or restriction, saving the very inconsiderable reservation relative to the in- spection laws. ‘This authority having thus. entirely passed from the States, the right to exercise it for the purpose of protection does not exist in them ; and, con- sequently, if it be not possessed by the General Govern- ment, it must be extinct. Our political system would thus present the anomaly of a people stripped of their right to protect their own industry and to counteract the most selfish and destructive policy which might be a- dopted by foreign nations. This surely cannot be the case. This indispensable power, thus surrendered by the States, must be within the scope of the authority, on the subject, expressly delegated to Congres. In this conelvsion Iam confirmed as well by the opinions of Presidents Washington, Jeflerson, Madison, and Mon- roe, who have each repeatedly recommended the exer- cise of this right under the constitution, as by the wni- form practice of Congress, as by the continued ucquies- ence of the States, and the general understanding of the people.” I will not refer to the votes of Gen. Jackson and other of the leading states- men of the opposite party in favor of the act of 1842; nor to his remarkable letter of April 23, 1814, on this subject, to Dr. Cole- man, of my own native State. IJ could cite line upon line, and extract upon ex- tract, from the solemnly recorded -and expressed opinions of the great statesmen of all parties in our country, and at all times in our history, to show both the right and duty of Congress, in the proper cases, to give a fair and reasonable encourage- ment to American labor. The sentiments I have quoted are opinions of those who have had the fullest confidence of the country, and especially of the South. The truth is, Mr. Chairman, that no President or party, Whig or Democrat, Federal or Republican, had omited when in power to maintain in both the constitutionality and expediency of the doctrine contended for by our side of the Hose. It wasa chief element of success in the election of Gen. Jackson. It had never been disputed in a Presidential message until the anuual communication of the present incumbent in December last.

In ex- ecuting this power, by levying a tariff of duties for the support of Government, the raising of revenue should be the object, and protection the incident. 'To reverse this principle, and make protection the object and revenue the incident, would be to inflict manifest imjustice upon ‘all other than the protected interests. In levying duties | for revenue, it is doubtless proper to make such discrim- inations, within the revenue principle, as will afford in- cidental protection to our home interests. Within the _ revenue limit there isa discretion to discriminate, beyond that limit the rightful exercise of the power is not con- , ceded.” Mr. Chairman, I shall not multiply, as I could, authorities on this subject.

At the suggestion of Mr. Benton, th treaty was delayed a day that he migly investigate the point thorowg@ly, and the result of his examination was an active concurrence with the views of the Sens tors whom I have named. Superadded to all this, other precautions were taken, to procure a just and proper understanding between the contracting parties. Mr. Pakenham was consulted, as to the meaning of the article, according to his view as the Britsh plenipotentiary. He did not hesitate to express to sever. al Senators, among others the late distin. guished Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Mr. Archer, that he re- garded the navigation of the Columbia as limited to the existence of the Hudson's Buy Company. Although] am of opinion that the matter in controversy is hardly worth the dispute, believing that the navigation of the unnavigable river is of no.great mo- ment to either country, and that Frazier's river will become the outlet of British trade, still I consider it of some importance that the stipulations of the treaty should be properly understood by our own pec- ple, and that the errors of others should be corrected.

MR. POLK AND THE OREGON TREATY. The Philadelphia North American pub- lishes the message of the President trans- mitting the offer of Great Britain to treat on the Oregon Question—together with the Treaty,&c. The surmise that the President had in his message declared his adherence to the views expressed in his message at the beginning of’ the session, turns out to be true. He says— My opinion and my action on the Ore- gon question were fully made known to Congress in my annual message of the 2d December last, and the opinions therein _expressed remain unchanged. Let those who glorify Mr. Polk so much for the settlement of the Oregon question | Mr. Polk’s conduct is so ‘ perfect an instance of riding—or attempt- ing to ‘ride—both sides of the sapling, as His party being divided . | Was ever seen. | on the subject, he tried to please both par- | ties, The extract given above was de- | | signed asa plaster for the sores of the 54— raised | 40 men, while by asking advice from the knowledge, and securing to the rising gen- Fisher?

And last, though not least, will be a sure guaranty of bring- ing about a Peace as glorious and honora- ble as it will be lasting.—Not by basely surrendering up our rights as Locofocoism has done in regard to Oregon, (according to their own declaration) but by maintain- ing and defending firmly that which is ours—by always being in the right, with nations as well as individuals. The accomplishment of these desirable ends, the great Whig Party of the Union is contending for; and anxiously look- ing to you, Whigs of North Carolina, to Taxing Lawyers and Doctors.—Since Mr. Ellis first proposed this measure of re- lief for the State, we have frequently heard it spoken of, and never yet but with | the greatest contempt. The thought had its origin, no doubt, with the single object of tickling the ears of confiding and credu- lous voters who do not belong to those classes of our community. It is a pure humbug, just like the Major’s promise to | get the School Fund. It is just such a Weapon as a demagogue would use.— Sensible men can never be deceived by such stuff, and the credulous once taken in, their fondness changes to hatred. The Mexican Trophies.—Col.

Paredes has decreed the formation | of a battalion of city militia of the mer- ebants of Mexico, and two squadron- of cavalry. It was said that he would set gat for the scene of war about the 3d of | his month. The Cabinet Ministers ten- | jered their resignations to Gen. Paredes m hearing that he was to join the army, put he refused to receive them. . The following letter to the New York fribune bears the latest date from Vera Cruz : Vera Cruz, June 30, 1846. We are all in commotion here. Gen. Bravo has de- d for the city of Mexico to assume the responsibili - pes of the Presidency in the absence of Gen. Paredes, gho, in person, with the consent of Congress, commands the forees destined to oppose Gen. Taylor, supposed here wo be far on the route to Monterey. The removal of Gen. Bravo from this Department oc- easions the enigmatical question whether, under the new Generals, the fortress will not pronounce for Santa Anna, and, by so doing, follow up the movement in bis favor at other points? ‘There is, without question, a strong dis- sion to do so on the part of some of the components of the army. In making a move of so serious a nature, however, there must naturally be considerable hesitation; it can hardly be carried through without an almogt unan- jmous antecedent whispered assent. We have traly heen expecting an outbreak of that nature for some time _not because we have any feeling peculiarly inimi- aal to Gen. Paredes, but because the troops believe San- ta Anna to be the more energetic man. We shall have more to communicate on this particular when the next geamer shall leave this for Havana. Of course you will be speculating upon whether, if Santa Anna return to power, it will induce a more spee- dy seulement of differences between the two countries. It is, you will be well aware, important to national feel- ing that we should give the troops of the United States a brush as severe as the one given us at Palo Alto, &c. Whether we will be able to do so is another matter. Of course you do not wish that we should ; if we can only manage to do so, however, just once, why, in that case, we will prove our magnanimity by making an offer to send Commissioners to meet a Commission from the United States for the adjustment of all existing differen- ees 80 satistaciorily for each of the two countries as to prevent all future misunderstandings. This, it is believed, will be the plan of Santa Anna, and the same may be also that of Gen. Parades himself ; for he, as well as Santa Anna, is fully aware that we are not strong enough to cope with the United States.— In fact, we never intended to go to war, and would not, had public opinion not been impressed with the necessi- ty for resisting the force of circumstances. You will be at once open to the conviction that if Gen. Paredes succeeds in gaining an advantage over the United States forces, he will be seated firmly where he js, If he meet with a reverse, then Santa Anna will be One of the principal objects of Paredes taking command of the army in person is to etugnT the strength of the present Government, and any success that*he may meet with will most decidedly do recalled without a doubt. go; a reverse will weaken it.

The impression seems to be gaining ground that Brandreth’s medicine may be emploped with safety and effect as a remedy for ordinary infirmities. There are many sensi- try, who with great propriety testify to the good effects of Brandreth Pills, from frequent experiment ; and no evil need be apprehended from them, according to the di- rections, In directing public attention to the Brandreth medicine, we only express our honest convictions, that the Brandreth Pills have done more service to the pre- sent generation, than all the patent medicines which have ever been introduced into general use. 01> These Pills are for sale at 25 cts. per box, by our agents in every town in the State, and by the following highly respectable gentlemen in this vicinity, viz: J.

By the arrival of the revenue cutter McLane, Capt. Howard, we have receiv- ed advices from Havana to the 2d inst., ‘and have gathered from the officers of the cutter some hints as to the designs of San- ta Anna upon Mexico, and other informa- tion of interest from the Island of Cuba. We are glad to be informed by Capt. Howard that there is not the least: pros- pect that privateers will be allowed:to be fitted out at Havana to depredate upon American commerce. It is the de- | termination of the.Spanish AdmitaPto al- | low no evasion of the treaties between | Spain and the United States. This de- termination the officers of the McLane have no doubt he will religiously adhere to, and Castilian faith is proverbial. In regard to the two Mexican steamers lying at Havana, they are still protected by the English colors which they carry. They have been offered for sale to the au- thorities of the Island, and the probabili- | ty is that the Captain General will pur- chase the iron vessel, the Gaudalupe. The Montezuma is said to be “ hogged,” and of. course not worth much. Neither of them will be allowed to leave Havana with the intent to cruise our commerce. It was the general] opinion in Havana, and circumstances seemed to warrant the supposition, that Santa Anna would sail for Vera Cruz in the English brig of war Daring ; but Capt. Howard doubts if, un- der the circumstances, the commander of that vessel would assume the responsibil- ity.of taking him to Mexico. Should he €00n the steamer, another question would arise, whether Commodore Conner should allow him to land; his purposes being folly,declared of taking an active part in the-prosecution of the war. { * __ pe ANew Republie—A gentlemen recent- Wy from Santa Fe, informs the editor of the St. Louis Republican, that before he deft that place Gov.

For many years our | citizens have been subjected to repeated insults | god injuries, our vessels and cargoes ‘have been | seized and confiscated, our merchants have been yndered, maimed, imprisoned, without cause | ind without reparation.

They have abolished your State eroments, they have overthrown your feder- 3} constitution, they have deprived you of the right of suffrage, destroyed the liberty of the ss, despoiled you of your arms, and reduced you to a state of absolute dependence upon the wer ofa military Dictator. Your army and rulers extort from the people by grievous taxa- tion, by forced loans, and military seizures, the very money which sustains the usurpers in pow- er. Being disarmed, you were left defenceless, an easy prey tothe savage Camanches, who not only destroy your lives and property, but drive | into captivity, more horrible than death itself, | a in advance. ‘ “ | | the Charleston News: | the Jine added to our squadron and we can do it Charleston Courier, of July 21st, says: The ER 15, OF VOLUME Hl.

In your struggle for liberty, with the Spanish Monarchy, thousands of our countrymen risked their lives and shed their blood in your defence. Our own Commodore, the gallant Porter, main- tained in triumph your flag upon the ocean, and ‘our Governtnent was the first to acknowledge your independence.

The individual experience of every man ought to satisfy him that the market which, when the el- ement of price is alone considered, seems _to be the cheapest, is very frequently ac- tually the dearest. If A, for example, can procure a ton of iron from B for 20 dollars, for which B requires the cash and will take nothing else, from C he can procure that ton of iron for 25 dollars, and pay for it by the products of his labor, is it not ob- vious that he would be the gainer by pay- _ing the highest price? . _ But Mr. Walker’s theory, as we before remarked, is disproved by facts. Howev- er true it may be that the foreign manu- facturers may show a lower scale of pri- ces than the actual sales in the United | States. the fact nevertheless is, that there has been no augmentation in the pride of any article upon which a protective duty has been imposed ; but, on the contrary, the imposition of the duty has been uni- | formly succeeded by a reduction of price. How can it be contended, in the face of this fact, that the duty enters into the price ‘and is a tax upon the consumer for the benefit of the manufacturer? Joes any man believe, if the tariff bill now pending before Congress shall pass, that there will be a permanent reduction of prices? If he does, the result will disappoint him ; for, so far from destroying a “ monopoly,” | as is rediculously pretended, it will, by breaking down competition, create a mo- -nopoly ; not, as at present, by the active rivalry of the domestic and foreign pro- ducer, each striving to supersede the oth- er in the.market, but by the cupidity of the seller, and the necessities of the con- < er ed ; and he took occasion tu tender to the gen- Sante > => sumer, The idea, extensively prevalent, that ; | the reduction which has taken place jn the | | prices of the protected articles—for that We repeat, cannot be denied—has resul- | tleman from Connecticut his thanks for the firm- ness, vigor and intelligence he had displayed in resisting this Bill.

The thing has been determined on already. In- structions have been given to the com- manding officers of the army which leave no room to question the views of the Ad- ministration on this point. Ir 18 TO BEA war OF CONQUEST, regardless of wrongs suffered by citizens of, or expenditures In- curred in the prosecution of the war by, the United States. We speak carefully and advisedly when we say that no peace can take place—no terms of compromise will be accepted—no mediation will be recognised, which has not for its basis the absolute surrender of Upper and Lower Culifornia, and the Department of New Mexico, to the U. States. On no other ground will the Administration consent to a cessation of hostilities, even for a moment. This is the utimatum—this the basis of the instructions to the command- ing generals of thearmy: The Rio Grande to be the boundary line between so much of the Mexican territory as is not swal- lowed up in this demand of the Adminis- New Merico and the whole of the t of such designs | tron— Californias to be the absolute property of the U. States! Whatever the “ News” may say it ts to be a war of acquisition— of conquest—the terms of which are dic- tated by the Administration before-hand —made a condition precedent—and not dependant on the final settlement of the diferences between the two nations. If any Senator or Representative shall be desirous of ascertaining the true import of the instructions which have issued from Washington, let a demand be made on : ees ia Equity from Davie, directing a 2 Ue , | which this wards being con the tf ese of various Rivers and Harbors.

He hastened from place to place amid the blazing ruins, his face blackened with the smoke and his hair and eye-brows signed with the fierce heat. At length, day dawned, a day of tempest and of flame; and Montier, who had strained every nerve swept it, rolled over a bosom of fire. Co- Jumns of flames would rise and sink a- long the surface of this sea, and huge vol- umes of black smoke suddenly shoot into the air as if volcanoes were working be- low. The blaek form of the Kremlin a- lone, towered above the chaos, now wrap- ped in flame and smoke and again emer- ging into view—standing amid this scene of desolation and terror, like virtue in the midst of a burning world, enveloped but unseathed by the devouring elements.— Napoleon stood and gazed on this scene insilentawe. Though nearly three miles distant, the windows and walls of the a- partment were so hot that he could scarce- ly bear his hand against them. Said he years afterwards: " “Tt was the spectacle of a sea and bil- , lows of fire, and clouds of flame, moun- tains of red rolling flame, like immense wavesof thesea.alternately bursting forth and elevating themselves to skies of fire, and then sinking into the ocean of flame below.

Bot the night of tempest had been succeed- ed by a day of tempests ; and when night again enveloped'the city, it was one brvad flame, Wavering to and froin the blast.— The wind had increased to a perfect hur- ricane, and shifted from quarter to quar- ter.as if on purpose to swell the sea of fire extinguish the last hope. The fire Was approaching the Kremlin, and alrea- roar of the flames andthe crash of ®. faltfmg houses, and the cracking of burn- “ing timbeys were borne to the ears of the startled Emperor.- He arose and walked to and fro, Stopping convulsively and ga- zing on the«territic scene.

Last week about 1,000 barrels were sent by railway. Ve- ry superior American flour is now being retail- ed in that town, 6 Ibs. to 7 Ibs., for a shilling.

Gen.

If he were a public pros- ecutor, dhe disposed to enter the field ot bitter acrimony, he might devote days and months to the herculeantask tocleanse the Bureau at Washington—but fortunately for him, the task was saved him—the doc- uments emanating from that Bureau were a sufficient expose of its. own rottenness, &c. He made no complaint. he came here to complain of no one,—he wished to do wrong to no one.—only desired that right should be done to him. Te craved no indulgence, he asked no greater glory than to be restored to his proper station— in war to conquer our foes, and in peace to prepare for war. ‘That was all the glo- ry that he now orevercraved. He desir- ed no distinctions except such as belonged to his profession. He desired to remain in the service no longer than he wasable to perform promptly his duty—he claimed every privilege due to his grade now and to the last; no power should trample on his rights.

Its effects upon labor and agriculture will be terrible, but the manufac- turers who can go on will do well. Several furnaces have stopped; the hands flock to the next furnace, offer to work at reduced rates to secure employment, and down goes wages ; and the farmer, losing his usual market, has to force his produce on the next establishment, and down goes his prices. Pig iron has fallen ' five dollars per ton, but wages and produce will lose more. Wool is down six cents a pound— this will not hort the manufacturer; the labor. ers and the farmers are and will be the suffer. ers. I agree. with you that the tariff is for | their benefit more than the manufacturer’s.— Polk and Dallas are universally execrated, es- pecially by those who voted for then.

MARKET. - Remarks.—The excitement that existed last week, in relation to the Tariff, has in a measure passed off. Congress is now closing up its besiness,—all the leading meastres, such as the Tariff, Sub-Treasu- ry and Warehousing bill, it is believed, will be completed. The intelligence from England, received since our last, is very favorable. Since the repeal of the corn laws, American breadstuffs had met with ready sale, and Flour had been distribu- ted by railroads, throughout the kingdom, more extensively than ever. The exports from this country, in July, were large, and there is still a good demand for Flour, Wheat, Rye, and Corn for shipment. The alteration of the Tariff has produced a great sensation in Pennsylvania, and in the manufacturing districts ; butits effects, it is supposed, will be most severely felt in the coal and iron regions. The impor- tations at present are light, and will con- tinue to be so until the Tariff goes into effect, which will be in December. The Fall trade is close athand. The auction- eers will commence their sales about the 10th. There is a diversity of opinion as to the prospect ; some are impressed with thie belief that it wil be good, while oth- ers think it will be light. The great in- flux of strangers now is for pleasure, pas- sing through the city on their way to the Springs and other places of resort. Coffeee.—There is no longer any ex- pectation that a duty will be laid on Cof- fee; the price is consequently low, and the article dull. The stock of Brazil is large, nearly 40,000 bags. Nosales have. been made worth reporting. Cotton.—The steamer’s news has had no influence onthe market. Holders gen- erally believe in an advance of prices ; but the market is without change as to price. The sales of the week have been: Upland and Flor. Mobile and N. O. 4000 bales. 2000 bales.

Domestic Goods—Are very quiet, and no sales of much importance. . Flour.—The market is fully sustained and since the arrival of the steamer there has been a betterdemand. The supplies, owing to a break in the canal have fal- len off ; Genesee is taken readily at $4,- 182; Michigan 4,124 ; Round Hoop, Ohio $4; Brooklyn Mills 4,124; Georgetown, Richmond City, Brandywine 4a 4,25. But little doing in Rye, Flour or Corn Meal; export from Ist to 31st July, 102,600 bbls. Grain.—There is a grand demand for Genesee Wheat for the English market 85 cts.; Rye is wanted again for expor prices; sales at 55 cts. for Western, and (31a 32 cts. for Oats. ‘fall trade has not commenced; sales of | Surinam at 26 cts; 120 hhds. Porto Rico, | 27 a 29; Cuba Muscovado, 25 cts. | Sugars—The market is excessively dull; sales of 600 hhds. New Orleans, at 64 a 74 cts; 500 Porto Rico 6} a 74 cts; 100 Str. Croix 74 a 84 cts. _ Money.—There is very little business , doing at present, and a large portion of | our capitalists and men of business are out of the city. It was supposed that af- ter clearing up the quarterly statements 'the banks would have extended their loans. This has not been the case; but _on the contrary they have been rather stringent. Exchange rules uncommonly low with no immediate prospect of any great improvement. The produce of the country although low in price, meets with ready sale. The Government will be al- most the only borrowers, and to effect its object it will have to put in ¢irculation a large amount of Treasury notes, which will contribute to make money m bundant. The passage of the Sub-Trea- sury is no longer feared. ¢.So long as the government is in debt, B « cumulation of specie to effect the public. old issue sum should remain out, the interest which _ their Government stocks, which are now Molasses—There is but little doing, the | a- abe noac*" With Sterling Bills below:the relative va- Sony ~ Monday PMs Nearly half amillion ! of Treasury Notes are still out, and have been for so long a time.

That the Government is already in a strait for money is indicated by the fact, that it is now about to withdraw every dollar it has deposited in the banks.— Thére were in deposit, according to the monthly statement of the Treasurer, a lit- tle over seven millions are in the banks of this city. This sum, which, at the actual rate of war expenditures, will last but a little while, is all to be drawn out—the deposit banks having. it is reported, re- ceived notice tothateffect. Although we are assured that no official notice has been given that Treasury notes will be issued, yet it is well known the necessities of the Treasury are and will be such, that they will want every dollar they have at com- mand, Treasury notes and all. These Treasury notes, however, should have been issued before the Government abstracted from the Banks its deposits, and thus have entered noone can doubt, into general cir- culation, added by the hard money the Government had in deposit. The Gov- ernment, however, we presume, could not wait. Its necessities are imperative ; mo-. ney must be provided right off to carry on the war. After these deposits are withdrawn, it will be a long while before the Govern- ment will have any new funds here “ sub- ject to draft.” The new Tariff Bill stops all importations now, er what is imported beyond the demands of immediate con- sumption, goes into bond. Thus until Dec. Ist. the Government will receive little or no revenue, while it will be paying out large sums in drawbacks for the goods now exported toneighboring ports, to come in under lesser duties after December Ist. As soon as the Government withdraws its deposits, the Banks will receive back held by the Secretary of the Treasury as collateral security. ‘These stocks, in such cases, will be thrown into the market, and so be realized in cash. These sales will tend to knock down the credit of the coun- try,and make itmore difficult for Govern- ment to borrow. Obituary. Mrranpa, Rowan co., Aug. 11, 1846. Messrs.

This , bas : . . | may sound strange to those who feed their stock | poison used for this purpose, is a decoction of | only with clover and timothy which has gone to seed, for we presume their stock was never thus fattened. But where this object is attain- ed, the grass is cut while it is quite green, (not past bloom) and made and preserved with care. It is true there are some kinds of grasses,—as the ‘spire grass,’ or ‘Kentucky blue grass,’ (Poa pratensis) which make but little bulk in seed-stalks, the chief growth consisting of leaves which spring from the root. ‘The greatest val- ed its greatest bulk. This remark however by no means applies to clover, or timothy, or the grasses usually cultivated for hay. In making hay, we would expose it to the sun and air no more than is required to effect its preservation, for the same reason that is above given in reference to curing herbs... Clover can be cured—indeed it is more conveniently cured —with but very little exposure to the sun if it is not wet, and is fairly wilted, it may be put. times more, till she had drunk two gallons of | the poison, without effect.

It will be seen that strong drink holds its own, and that the fruits thereof "are as deadly and destroying now as they were ‘In ancient days. | ‘A tavern is the fountain of sin ; the school | of the devil ; it works wonders, fitting the place. | | It is the manner of God to show his power in| ' the church, andto work miracles ; that is to say, | ‘to give sight to the blind, to make the lame 20, | | the dumb to speak, the geaf to hear; but the’ i devil doth quite contrary to all this in a tavern, | for when a drunkard goeth toa tavern, he goeth | uprightly, but when he cometh forth, he cannot. , go at all, and he hath lost his sight, his hear- _ing,and his speech.

The allies, after they assembled in Paris, demanded some victims to ap their anger.— Many were wolested ‘eath better fepose! prevailed, and they were saved. _Ney was -a prominent example ; he had routed their armies too frequently and too nearly wres- t@d their crowns from them at: Waterloo, to. be forgiven. It was intended. at first to try him by marshal law, bat-the Mar- shals of France refused to sit in jadgment on so brave, generous, and heroic a war- rior. By a royal ordinanee, the Chamber of Peers was then directed to try him.— Scorning to take advantage of any tech- | nicalities of the law, he wasspeedily found guilty and condemiied to death, by a ma- jority of a hundred and fifty-two.

For this purpose the Imperial Guard was called up, which had remain- ed inactive during the whole day, and divided into immense columns, which were to meet at the British centre.— That under Reille no sooner entered the | fire than it disappeared like mist. The | other was placed under Ney, the “ bra- vest of the brave,” and the order to ad- vance giten. Napoleon accompanied them part way down the slope, and halt- ing for a moment in a. hollow, addressed them in his fiery, impetuous manner. He told them the battle rested with them, and. that he relied on theit valor. “ Viveal’ Empereur !” answered him with a shout that was heard all over the field of battle. He then lelf them to Ney, who ordered the charge. Bonaparte has been blamed for not heading this charge himself; but In both Houses of Congress the resig- ‘nation of Mr. Haywood, and the outrage- ous assault upon him by the organ of the Administration, the Washington Union, formed the subjects of remark on Tues- day of last week. We copy what was said in the Senate by Mr. Webster, Mr. Mangum, and Mr. Benton. Sentiments similar to theirs were uttered by Senators Dix, Niles, and Bagby, Locofocos, and Pee a hae treasury, and I should hope thet the result inf"thie espe but he knew he could not ¢arry that guard so far or bold them so long before the ar- tilery, as Ney. The moral power the latter carried with him, from the reputa- tion he had gained of being the “ bravest of the brave,” was worth a whole divis- ion. Whenever a column saw him at their head, they knew that it was to be victory or annihilation: With the excep- tion of Macdonald, 1 do not know a gen- is evident, but. not°to that extent which | demanded bis death.’ “No man had done | more for France than he. or loved her honor and glory:with a higher affection; | aid his ignominious death is a lasting dis- grace to the French nation.

The greatest military energy and skill the world possessed had been tasked to the utmost during the day. Thrones were tottering on the ensanguined field, and the shadows of fugitive kings flitted through the smoke of battle. Bonaparte’s star trembled in the zenith—now blazing out in its ancient splendor, now suddenly paleing before his anxious eye. At length, when the Prussians appeared on the field he resolved tostake Europe one bold throw. He committed himself and France to Ney | and saw his empire rest on a single charge. The intense anxiety with which he watch- ed the advance of that column, and the terrible suspense he suffered when the smoke battle wrapped it when the cur- tain lifted over a fugitiwe army, and the despairing shrick rung’on every side, “ lu garde recule,” “la garde recule,” makes us for the moment forget all the carnage in sympathy with his distress. Ney felt the pressure of the immense responsibility on his brave heart, and re- solved not to prove unworthy of the great trust committed to’ his care. Nothing could be more imposing than the: move- ment of that column to the assault, That guard had never yet recoiled before a hunran foe, and the allied forces’ Bebeld with awe its firm and terrible adyahes to the finalcharge.

Member, with the previous knowledge and.approbation of many other Members of the game partys: of a proviso which made the bill | obnoxious to its own friends, and which was cer- tain to defeat it either in the House of Repre- sentatives orinthe Senate. It rubbed through the House of Representatives; but would have | been killed in that body had it come back from the Senate with an amendment striking out the proviso in question ; without striking out which it probably never could have passed the Senate. From the same letter we extract the follow- ing paragraphs, hardly less interesting than that which we have already quoted: “ This [the rejection of the Oregon govern. | ment bill] was too bad; for Judge Douglass | had drawn the bill with great care, and it was a very good bill as it passed the House. I am | afraid there was a little—the least taste in life —fifty-four forty malevolence in this! But let it pass, although the bill did not pass. I am chiefly concerned about this untoward failure because of the previous disappointment it has brought to a small crowd of Democrats from the West, who were willing and able to meke ex- cellent governors, secretaries, or judges, or In- dian agents. “There was another important measure which came to an untimely end; and this was The post-office bill, about franking, and postmas- is now said, not to issue Treasury notes so long here are two kinds of Government paper money : one authorized by law, and for which the Gov- ernment is bound to make provision in some way, and at some time—T'reasury notes; .the other, Treasury drafts, for the payment of which no provision is made by jaw, nor is there any authority by law to issue them which would com- mit the Government to pay them. This species of paper is, I suppose, in Trea- sury language, termed hard money. It is evi- dently intended to form a circulating medium forthe country.- The bill which I saw has been in circulation about two months. It was dated in June. Suppose, at some future period, the Canal they probably will be before long, if th® war continues,) and suppase an appropriation by | Congress necessary to pay these drafis, is it | probable that such an appropriation would be | made without great difficulty, to redeem a paper | money manufactured without the authority of Inw, and in direct opposition to the opinion of the Senate, as expressed when asked for such authority ? The Treasury Department has determined, it as they have any money ; intending, I presume, to give the public a plentiful dose first of unau- thorized Treasury drafts. ‘The Government deposites in the banks of this city are rapidly shrinking. ‘The Government has not at this moment in the city'of New York more, and probably less, than two millions five hundred thousand dollars.

Bradbury, and at least five | | votes less against him, than were actually cast | | by members of the House and received by said | committee. ‘They say and aver that they are | ready to prove, that the number of votes given | | and received, as aforesaid, for George Evans, | | instead of being 49 only, as reported, as in fact | | 58, and that one vote was so given and receiv- | ed for William P.

Should the Senate, | however, decline by such constitutional majority | to give such advice, or to express an opinion on | the subject, I shall consider it my duty to reject | the offer. | This, we think, clearly shows that “ the graph declares his early opinions on the subject unchanged. The second para- | graph declares that, should the Senate de- | | cline giving him advice, he would feel it his duty to reject the offer. Could any | thing be more explicit ! The President, carrying out the views of the Baltimore Loco Convention, sprung a the duties of q@arrel with great Britainby claiming the i whole of Oregon ; and the Senate’of the | U.

Never was a party. more sig. nally rebuked on any oceasion, and the Locofocos feel tt too severelyy “They well knew before the election that this cam. paign would seal their doom for years; with the hope of making the ‘people de- sert the principles of their forefathers but allto no purpose. American tnteresis has gloriously triamphed over British tater. ests. The dishonorable course pursued by the Locofocos about the Rail Road con. demned in the strongest manner, and we trust the demagogues who tried to ride into office on this road are sufficiently sat. isfied.of the fact. We think the, Editor of: the Carolinian shows that he has very little confidence in the stability of the People to express a doult as to their views on the Tariff af. ter the vote they have just given against his party. A democrat having so much confidence in them as Mr. Bain has s0 of- ten expressed to liave, would be far {rom intimating that they were not’ ®Bincere in thé verdict just given.

Reve- “nue Cutter Forward, on Friday, that the Louisiana Volunteers had been disbanded was full f - pgario and the Steam ship N. York, which ‘arrived on Saturday. We conversed last evening with some of the off Of which to inform us. The troops were « ey at they could not meet, with any obsta- “ele to their pragress from the enemy be- "fore the latter part of September, or the “early part of October, if even then, which ‘he considered doubtful. confirmed by the brig Empre- | returned from the seat of war, They had little inthe way of news ‘Moving on to Camargo with all conveni- | “ent Speed. Genéral Taylor’s opinion was, tati rself on the pavement ys ve eer gat from the epproach- ing flames displaying in bold relief, the lovely contour of her noble yet sylph-like form. _An expression of agonizing despair was stamped upon that fair face which, bat a few moments before, had been decked in radiant smilés.— The palor of death had usurped the place of the rose. The excited multitude beneath af least stood, remained silent ané motionless. To all human appearance, no aid could reach her. A few minutes more and she must be lost forever. At this moment, clasping- her hands, she ex- claimed in heart-rending accidents, “ my Moth- er!” and imthediately after, the word ‘“ Wil- liam !” fell from her lips in softer tone. Now a rush was heard at the extremity of the crowd, and a young man, dressed in fatigue suit of a U. S. “ Middy,” bounded forward and gazed for a moment with wild and haggard looks on the lovely vision before him. It was but fur a mo- ment—With one bound, into which he seemed to throw the concentrated energy of despair and hope, if such a union can take place, he reach- ed a window in the building, some five feet from which, even then, the smoke and flames were belching forth—attempts were made to stop him; but he was gone. The anxiety and in- terest below were intense. In a moment he made his appearance beside the lady, and grasp- ing her round the waist and again disappeared.

By this mode one hand can wash as fast as ten ploughs can put it in. In 1843, 1 received 100 bushels of seed wheat from the Western “shore; after seeding more than one half, I discovered smut in it, and prepared 30 bushels as stated, washing out a quantity of «smut and other filth. In 18441 found the smut much increased in the wheat not prepar- ' amination, I found only one smuthered ; I then examined the grain, and thought I of the prepared wheat. In the fall I seeded 75 bushes of that wheat, washing only 12 bushels. In 1845 I examined carefully the 12 bushels seed- ing, and found no smut: I did not exam- ‘ine that not prepared, but found none in cleansing it for market. I again compar- ed the grain, and observed if any thing, a great difference in favor of the prepar- ed wheat. I also discovered a like differ- ence in a white wheat that I was seed- ing | Last fall I prepared my entire crop, 162 bushels, using 200 Ibs. salts, and nearly _six barrels of slacked lime.

On the hill side beyond, they have been more successful. — There were some eighteen or twenty hands at work, deep in the bowels of the earth, entirely beyond our sight or hearing. Immense fissures ran along the hill side, caused by masses of earth, disengaging and falling into the tunnel below. A very large slice had fallen a day or two previous to our visit, and one would think the miners might be deterred from their preca- rious labor by such accidents, yet they work away as if unconscious of, or fearing no danger.

Such is our prospect.” CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION. This expedition is to leave New York soon. The Courier says: “ We learn that Col. Stanton has char- tered the ships Susan Drew, T. H. Perkins, and Loo Choo, to convey the California expedition to their place of destination. These vessels are all of the best class of ships and of about 700 tons Custom House measure—well ventilated and admirably calculated for transports. -We are pleased to learn that while mil- lions of dollars have been squandered in extravagant charter parties at the South, ‘these vessels have all been taken up at what would be considered reasonable ‘terms if engaged by individuals. The gross amount paid to the three ships, is only $65,000. Those who are acquainted | with Col. Stanton will not be surprised at this; while the public will of course be _prepared to learn that certain friends of ‘the administration were anxious to do the | work for double the sum ! ' For ourselves we have never believed that this new expedition would sail under the command of J. D. Stevenson. The Courier contains a letter from Tho- mas Jefferson Sutherland, himself a com- mander of volunteers, in which he prefers many grave charges against Stevenson, and avows his readiness to prove them be- fore a Court of Inquiry if an opportunity is afforded him. | 0 Gen. Gaines has been acquitted by the Court of Inquiry which was convened to investigate the charges preferred a- -gainst him. Will Mr. Polk restore him to his command ? (> Rumors are again rife in Wash- \ington, about changes inthe Cabinet. As ‘to their correctness we know not. We ‘believe no change will be of any benefit ‘to the country, unless it be of the whole administration. This, we confidently ex- ‘pect, in 1848. Then we hope to see those held together by the “cohesive power of | public plunder ”—the “rogues and royal- ists,” chalk it, and the country once more placed under the guidance of its true friends.

THE STONE MOUNTAIN IN DE- ~~ ~CALB COUNTY, GEORGIA. -~ It very frequently happens that in look- | ing. at objects at a distance, we overlook these which are close at hand. This dis. | position of our nature is exhibited in the | admiration men often express of what is | great and beautiful in some distant land, or, in remote parts of our country, while | they seem ‘not to be aware that impartial | nature has put objects of like interest and is almost at their doors. Was Struck with the truth of this gen. | semark, by a visit tothe Stone Moun. | jo, while in attendance recently at the mMencement at Emory College, Ga. @ great distinguishing peculiarity of * = . . . . the Stone Mountain, ia, that it is uncon: nected with any chain of mountains, and is not sijuated in a mountainous region, bee eto abruptly if its solitary gran- | den Fot the bosom of a camparatively | level country. It is a mighty mass of) grey rock, as its name indicates, the nor- | therm Side and the summit of which are perfectly bald, or destitute of verdure. Its | appearance to the traveller who approach. | es it, is exceedingly grand and striking. | For the eye is suddenly drawn from the | ordinary forest scenery ta this lofty pile, | toweringinits primeval magnificence over | all that surrounds it. One who has been accustomed to mountain scenery looksim- mediately for’another and another peak, | bat here he looks in vain. No other em- jnence'presents itself to his view, and he stands the delighted beholder of one of nature's wanders, a Jone, and isolatod rock ! Ks circumference at the base, as we were told.'is about nine miles, while its height | js twelve hundred feet above the land a- round it. Nor need the traveller, who reader, and tempt him toa like excarsion, he will probably be ‘satisfied that there are some things worth seeing this side of the beautiful Potomac. Viaror. The Moon in Lord Rosse’s Telescope.— Dr. Scoresby of Ireland, whose admira- ble discourses on Astronomy have been arranged after the examination of the stellar system through the magnificent in- | strument of Lord Rosse, remarks in a re. cent lecture, that with regard to the lunar orb, every object on the moon’s surface is now distinctly tobe seen; and, he had no doubt, that under very favorable circum- stances, it would be so with objects sixty feet in height. On its surface were cra- ters of extinct volcanoes, rock, and mass- es of stone almost innumerable. Ile had ; no doubt whatever that if such a build- ing as he was then in were upon the sur- fuce of the moon, it would be rendered distinctly visible by these instruments.— But there were no signs of habitations such as ours—no vestiges of architectural remains ta show that the moon is or ever was inhabited by a race of mortals simi- lar to ourselves. It presented no appear- ance which could lead to the supposition that it contained anything like the green fields and lovely verdure of this beautiful world of ours. There was no water visi- ble—not a sea, or a river, or even the measure of a reservoir for supplping town or factory—all seemed desolate. Hence would arise the reflection in the mind of the Christian philosopher—why had this devastation been? It might be further inquired—was it a lost world? Had it suffered for its transgression ? Analogy might suggest the question—had it met the fate which Scripture told us was re- served for our world? It was obvious that all this was mysterious conjecture. Upon the subject of astronomy, a para- graph of interest in relation to the planet Saturn and Brosen’s second comet is giv- en in a letter from Rome, dated June Ist, which states that the celebrated astrono- may be.induced to stop and admire this men of his Maker's handy-work fear | thé diflieulty or danger of its ascent, For, | from-the hate! at its base, to its very apex, he will find a road marked out with care. | and:so wel! chosen, that he may wend his | Way up'te the very mountain top.

The multitude think, that to educate a child is to crowd into its mind a given amount of | knowledge; to teach the mechanism of reading | and writing; to load the memory with words; to prepare a boy forthe routine of trade. No wonder, then that they think almost every body fit to teach. .The true end of education is to | unfold and direct aright our whole nature. Its office is to call forth powers of thought, af. | fection, will, and outward actions; powess to obseive, to reason, to judge, to contrive; power to adopt good courses and pursue them efficiently power to’ govern ourselves and to influence others; power to gain and to spread happiness, teacu its best use. The intellect was created not to receive passively a few words, dates and facts, but to be active for the acquisition of truth. Accordingly, education should inspire a pro. | found love of truth, and teach the processes of | investigation. A sound logic, by which we | mean the science of art, which instructs us in| the laws of reasoning and evidence, in the true method of enquiry, and in the sources of false Judgment, is an essential part. of a good ed. | | ucation.— Channing. COLD-BLOUDED MURDER. | A young man named Vicror Lewis, clerk in the store | of Mr. Bullard, Leaksville, Rockingham county, N. C., _ was muldered the night of the 12th inst., under circum- stances of the most secret and atrocious character.. He was found dead in the countnig-room the next morning shot through the head with a shotgun, the load entering his face on the right side of his nose and coming out at He had epparently just prepared person had called him at the window, where those wan- | | ting any thing from the store after it was shut up some- | times called, and was in the act of putting on his slip- pers when he received the fatal load. The storehouse | of the money-drawer, probably some eight or ten dollars, | taken out. Attempts were also made on the sufe, which contained a large amount of money, but proved unayail- | ing—the murderer and burglar, in his excitement prob- | ably failing to find the key, which was in the pocket of | Mr. Lewis's pantaloons where he had thrown them ona | | chair, Although the report of the gun was heard by | neighbors, suspicion was not aroused ; as there was a | grogshop in the vicinity of the store, where there had | been for several days and nights a good deal of quar- reling and disorder—perhaps fighting and firing off of guns. Two men have been committed to prison on suspicion of the deed; but what the nature of the evidence is against them we have not fully learned. | The deceased, we learn, was a young man of unex- munity where he lived are in a state of great excite-_ ment and anxiety to ferret out the atrocious villian or | villians who were engaged in the murder. | Greensborough Patriot Noruine Strance.—The Louisville Journal, in speak- | ing of the fact recently developed, that Judge Bowlin’s first circular to the people of Missouri, as a candidate for | Congress, was written by Mr. Penn, late editor of the Missouri Reporter, calls it“ a curious piece of history.” Upon which the Alexandria Gazette remarks: “There | is nothing ‘ curious’ in this to us. It is only the way of | the world. One half of the great men that we have are manufactured by the press. In the mean time the | great men flourish, whilst the poor editors are scarcely remembered, or, if remembered at all, only for their ser- vices and their labors to be again required, that others | may reap the advantage.” : | Of course!

In this only have I of- fended; and in manly sincerity, but with that plainness of speech which the hum- blest man in the community will be able to understand for himself, I proceed to lay before you my explanation. "The subject of the tariff, and the system of laws by which taxes are imposed and collected for the use of the General Gov- émment throughout the Union is one of | deep importance, but of much intricacy and great difficulty in its judicious ar- rangement. Such after taking my seat in the Senate of the United States (in De- cember, 1843) I-for one felt what any man when he first goes into Congress directly from private life will be apt to experience, and that was, a lack of necessary know- ledge and information upon it. With an ambition to learn my duty as a legislator for this great Republic, and a fixed deter- mination to pursue it afterwards, I imme- diately:-gave my whole mind to the study and. consideration of this ta:’“ system, Well knowing that upon it depended in a good degree the chief operations in com- for some months to this study, 1 hoped | had myself qualified, and my political as- BUnion...1T done. wast Binot e" believed me fit to be consulted with in our united efforts to arrange a ta- with justice to all sections, and with peneire safety to the business, prosperity, mAEMONY, peace, and independence of the mit that this could not be are that the Union can- not be preserved, and the cause of free government had failed. “The, Democratic Senators in particular, toncurring.as we did then, and do new, h a ‘feweexceptions at the North, in a « i : Tr 4 sired te see it changed.

Bear in mind that the | “ McKay bill” of 1844 and the McKay bill of 1846 agree in nothing butthe name, , as | will show you hereafter. | And what, let me ask, was the result of | all this? In the North, as well as in the South and West, the elections to the pre- sent Congress ended favorably to the De- | mocratic party. A Democratic majority of more than sixty were returned to the House of Representatives. The same par- | ty held a majority in the Senate. And a as the South; a Southern and a Western President, whom we could not have elec- ted without the votes of Northern States. Of course I cannot undertake to affirm, as a fact, that the Northern States which vo- ted for the Democratic party were induced todo it by McKay’s bill and report of 1844. But this I know, and will say, that it was put forth as a political peace-offer- ing upon the tariff, and that the Northern people at once rallied to the support of the party in numbers largely beyond those had heretofore supported it; and that it was expected by us when that offermg was Democrats ; and I have no doubt that it enlisted the support of thousands who science of the people of North Carolina, who I know love all their country—North, South, East, and West—whether, under such circumstances, | was bound to vio- late my sense of duty, and, contrary alike to this party-pledge and to my own sober judgment as a Senator, to assent to an act which violated, out and out, the “ McKay bill” of 1844, when there was_no_ publi¢’ emergency-to réquire it, and.no. national ‘exigency to. excuse it,and:that when I-did: ue new 4 r a2 Wie ‘army invading Mexico, and a large navy ceeds fifty millions of dollars. ‘to “ pay as we go?” Certainly not. Con- | { /expenses continue, it made that it would conciliate the Northern | force in the form that I was required to | or wrong. I abide the result without fear; yet, if I know myself, without a wish to. see evil come of it, merely for the sake of claiming hereafter the merit of political | sagacity for my resistance to it. ‘These, then, were my opinions, as they are now: First.

The acts of a Congress which went to diminish the revenue, but to increase the expenditures, did not seem to me to be consistent with prudence in any Government, more espe- cially in a time of war.

In so far as the Legislature intended to de- clare hostility to the tariff act of 1842, 1 con-— curred with taem; and I again repeat that my _embarrassments grew altogether out of this : that the act by which it was proposed to get rid of the tariff of 1842, wags, under the circum. | siances of its presentation, progress, and en- ‘actment, and, in view of all its consequences to the party and the country, as bad or worse than | the act of 1842 ; and a support of it by my vote Was utterly repagnant toa sense of duty to my- | self, and of fealty to North Carolina and the | Union; so that [ retired from it as I would from a political pestilence.

MonTGOMERY, From the New Orleans Tropic of Aug. 21. OUR FLEET BEFORE VERA CRUZ. The movements of Com. Connor before Ve- Cruz are difficult to explain, as indicating an ficient officer. It would be unjust to Commo- ore Connor to hold him responsible for the pre- | nt farce called a blockade at Vera Cruz un- il it is knowW what are his orders from govern. ment. [tis useless longer to discuss the fact, | hat our naval operations on the Mexican coast | hare been slovenly conducted, inefficient and uoworthy of our naval prowess. For weeks | has a powerful force been opposite Mexican | ports, all of which, save Vera Cruz, could be | more or less harrassed, yet nothing has been | p Fdone. One petty conflict is reported between some troops engaged in fortifying Tampico and he St. Mary’s, in which the latter ‘after half n hour’s exercise the captain thought it expe. dtent to resume his anchorage,” or in other | words, to get out of the way of the enemies’ shot. | Our Vera Cruz correspondent, a gentleman pon whose statements the greatest reliance may be placed, in his letters to us which we published on Saturday last, mentions some ex- traordinary facts, upon which we base our re- | parks relative to the professed blockade before fera Cruz, It would seem that British vessels have their own way on the coast, and are carry- ing on a very lucrative business, our vessels of war merely acling as guardians to defend them in their monopoly. The British mail steamers are permitted to go into Vera Cruz, and not on- ly to carry the mail, but also engage liberally in rafic, The captain of the St. Mary’s, by inter. fering, was indirectly reproved by Com. Connor, and the British steamers were permitted to re- sume their trafic. We do not, in al! this mat- ter, blame the steamers one particle, but we cannot see no proper excuse fur Com. Connor iN permitting if. It is urged by our Vera Cruz correspondent » that the blockade, as now carried on, is only in- PBwrious to American commeyce, and that in spite of the blockade, supplies are daily thrown into (Vera Cruz.

W. L. Ball, of the Kentucky, vol- unteers, is supposed to have been murder- ed by the Mexicans on the road between Burita and Matamoras. The town of China, on the Rio San Ju- an, 65 or 70 miles from Camargo, was ta- ken on the 5th inst. by Capt. McCulloh of the Texas Rangers, without opposition.— Col. Seguin with 100 Mexicans were in the town, but on the appearance of the A- mericans they retreated. Another Mexican depot of arms has been found in Matamoras, and a quantity of stores and amunition seized. The reigiment of Rangers, under Col. Jack Hays, and Lieut. Col. Walker, left Matamoras about the 10th inst. on an ex- cursion into the exterior. The precise routs to be taken by them-is not known, and will probably depend upon circum- stances. We hope to be kept fully ap- prised of the movements of this corps, to which great importance is attached in the army. The 2d Regiment of Dragoons, which is composed now of only four companies, with about 375 men, has abandoned its encampment between Point Isabel and Fort Brown, and was at Matamoras at last accounts.

The opinion pub- lished in a letter I have seen from North Car- olina, that Mr. M. is not a candidate for re-elec- tion, is erroneous.

We have received information, says the Washington Union of Wednesday, on which we place implicit reliance, that Commodore | Sloat took possession of Monterey on the 6th July last. On the 9th July, Commander John B. Montgomery, of the Portsmouth, summoned ‘the commandant of Yerba Buena to surrender. What the result of this summons was, we are not informed. A few days previous to the 6th July, a de. tachnient from Col. Fremont’s force took pos- session of a frontier post called Sonoma to the north of San Francisco. Gen. Castro attempt- ed to dislodge them ; but, after a slight skir- mish, and the arrival of Col. Fremont in per- son, he, Castro, retreated. There appears to have been as much dissen- sion among the Californians before the arrival of Com. Sloat, as existed in other parts of Mexi- co. On the 15th June a junta met at Santa Barbara, headed by Governor Pico, to declare California independent ; which movement was met by a proclamation from the Commandant | General Castro, declaring martial law through. out the country.

Talbot not despairing of finally arresting him, was to leave the day after the date of his letter in pursuit for Galveston. The Nat.

I churned, perhaps three hours to no purpose and then tried to think of some- thing I had read in the Indiana Farmer, or soine other periodical. I could not remember pre- cisely, but recollected the reason stated was the cream being too sour.

Lex- ington is, I imagine, the most prosperous and wealthy inland town in the-U. States, and will continue to march onward, al- beit no-river sweeps by its borders. Del- icacy forbids my mentioning the names of gentlemen whose residences I visited, and of whose hospitality I partook ; but look- | ing upon Henry Clay as national property, I consider that I do not violate propriety in describing him as ] saw him at home, and his own laureled Ashland. But | must begin with Ashland, a place cele- brated because it is the abode of one who, “take him all in all,” is the greatest and most admired Statesman of the land.” “ Ashland is about two miles from Lex- ington, and its old-fashioned mansion, af- ter catching a view of it at some distance, is suddenly hid among the lofty trees that almost surround it. When our party reach- ed the gate, which stood wide open, no house could be ‘seen: we entered it, and, | winding through the copse, Ashland in all its beauty flashed’ upon us. We had scarcely entered his hall when Mr. Clay came to meet us with his bland smile and cordial shake of the hand, which made me, at least, feel as if I were at home. The grounds of Ashland are ina high state of cultivation, and it would do a farmer good to look upon them. He boasted not of it, but some of his neigh- bors told me that Mr. Clay stands “A No. 1.” (as we merchants say.) especially . in cultivating and putting up hemp; and, from all I heard and witnessed, I dare say he is as well qualified to impart useful in- formation to the cultivators of the soil as he is to enlighten us on the great politi- cal questions of the age. There he sat at Ashland, in his plain farmer's dress, dis- coursing with his accustomed frankness | on many subjects, and sometimes giving utterance to sentiments that other men | should write books upon ; but not an un- kind expression towards any individual. whether private or public, escaped his lips. ‘Time has laid but a sparing hand upon the great American Statesman. | never saw him look better or happier ; his step is elastic, his faculties appeaft fresh and vigorous, and the chances are that he will live to witness the election of sever- al Presidenst.” LINCOLN SUPERIOR COURT, Adjourned on Saturday evening last, the is slave, was found guilty, and sentenced to | pay the penalty of the law next October; but | though cireumstances were against the unfor- he unpurchasable sympathies of his Judge, his Jury, and his fellow citizens !0 | 4 were with him, as evidenced by the unanimi- | pol@s along the rail road, where northern. : ty with which a petition in his behalf was sign- From the doubtful character of the case, evidence of which can no doubt be furnished — from the high testimonial character—trom the old age of Mr. Williams, if not from the peti- tion sent, we cannot but trust that His Excel- 'lency, the Governor, will exercise the power given him by the constitution, by granting this ld man a clear and unconditional pardon. | e | the windows of Heaven, and pour out a blessing County. po His honor has appointed the old day, | ah, says the Philadelphia U. 8.

Eceftainly-could not have been induced to return to political life, as the representative of my country abroad, unless | had been persuad- that in the crisis to which you have referred, the views of my own government had been en- tively consistent with such a setilement of the Oregon question as ought to have secured an fionorable peace, and unless | bad entertained the hope that I might. be enabled in some de- gree.to co-operate to that end. Fee myself, after our several conventions of 1818, and 1828, (the latter of which received my support as a Senator of the United States,) for the joint occupation of the territory, I had alwaystegarded the Oregon question as less dependent upon the force of title, than upon the apeincipies of an equitable partition. It would e been unreasonable to expect, afier such acknowledgments of the rights of joint occu- pancy, that either party would be permitted wholly to dispossess the other, Without some Wregerd to interests which had grown up during their moufual possession. It appeared to Le, also, that all the previous acts of our govern- Ment had not_on!y been consistent with, but affirmmatuiy ofthose views ; and I could see nothing in the nationa! honor that would justify, much less demand,’a departure from it. Pos- sessing before, in an equal degree as after the tgeaty with Spain in 1819, all the title, which, on theeground of discovery, we could assert to the-country, drained by the waters of the Co- lumbia, and which, if good for any thing, was valid beyond the, 52d parallel! of Intitude ; our government at no time proposed a more north- ern boundary than the parallel of 51, and never demanded more than that of 49. Having some knowledge, from my official position at thattime, of the policy and.objects of the convention of 1828, I am quite persuaded that its main design was to lead in a future partition of the territory te the recognition of our claim to the country, “fot north, but south of the forty-ninth parallel, and between that and the Columbia river. A = eae dixision of the country upon that principle, with | reasonable regard to rizhts growing up under the joint-possessions, always appeared to me to afford agust and practicable basis for an amica- sble-and honorable adjustment of the subject.— also,-I was satisfied, were the views of the attempt to find "es Gontinoewce of our feature peace. ne impet with which the negotia- peonducted in their several departments tion waeonducted by hoth governments, hare heen aries & their wisdom and moderation, and have dire servedito elevate uur own in the opinion of ah er nations. ¥ a, f I sincerely believe that these efforts cannot nd if any portion be too highly appreciated; a of our fellow citizens in any section of the coun- try should fee} that they have not obtained all the territory and.advantages they had expected to acquire, it w hoped that they will nev- ertheless bé satisfied that the national ‘honor, so far from suffering, has really been elevated by the result,*and that in preserving the bless. ings of peace, and keeping our country steadily in a career of glorious, prosperity, they will be amply compensated for any disappointment they may have experienced, and they gain far more | than an equivalent for any doubtful advantage only to be sought through the instrumentality of war. Having now effaced, upon honorable | terms, the last cause that threatened the peace ot two people of kindred origin, and associated | by commercial relations more extensive and important than eaist beween any other two na- tions of the earth, may we not now hope to be- | gin a new career of international intercourse, and, by thé uninterrupted pursuit of commerce and the arts, extend and cement our relations. It ought to be considered as fortunate that these results have happened at a moment when, by the wisdom and courage of British statesmen, a new and importent step has been taken in the enlargement of commerce, by which the trade | of ditlerent nations must be widely extended, and the motives of harmonious relations indefi- nitely multiplied. As between the U. States | and Great Britain especially the causes which | ought naturally to agsociate the two people up- | /on an honorable basis nd contribute to their | | mutual prosperity, may now have fair, play, and | | our competitions in future be confined toa gen. | | erous rivalry in all that can advance the happi- | ‘ness of the people of both countries, and of | mankind at large. I wou!d do injustice to the occasion, if I omit to state it as my opinion, that in the coun- try and among the people I have just left, these | expectations begin to be generally entertained ; and that the settlement of the Oregon question | will soon come to be universally regarded as the knell of those inveterate jealousies and feuds which, it may be apprehended, have so long ex- erted a mischievous influence on the people, if | not upon the counsels of both countries. I may say, with certainty, also, that whatey. | er may be thought of the result hy some respec- | table portions of our countrymen, the terms we | , should | i \ _ have ultimately obtained, no less than the vin. — | dication of our rights, and the ultimate.approval | ‘of an honorable concession, bave added anoth- | | er refutation to the charge of undue ambition, | 'and to the imputation upon our national faith | land stability not unfiequently made in some | | quarters of Europe. - | | If these advantages be properly appreciated, | | the time is not remote when all will be ready | | to acknowledge and rejoice in the result. | The occasion may not be inapt to bear testi- | mony to the sense universally entertained a. | | broad of the enterprise and punctuality of the | ' commercial classes of the United States, and of the influence it has exerted in sustaining Ame- rican credit in defiance of causes which, I, too, | deeply deplore, to atlempt at this time more par- ticularly to allude to. I will add, too, that even | these causes are beginning to feel the influence | | of a juster and of a higher hope, and that little | more than a perseverance of sume of our Jocal | governments in their exertions to maintain the | public credit, is needed to elevate our country | | to a proud and enviable rank among the nations | of the earth. | We learn that the principal merchants of the | | city, headed by the Mayor, George Newbold, | | Jonathan Goodhue, Collector Lawrence, Ste- | phen Whitney, &c., &c., waited upon Mr. Mc- | Lane, and tendered him a public-dinner.

It was im- portant that the apportionment of Repte- sentatives should, at fixed periods, be as- ae certained—so as, at once, to pay a just at-| tention to the comparative growth of pop- ulation, amongst the States, and, at the same time, to prevent too frequent and in- convenient changes in the relative repre- sentation of the scveral States, and, hence, the Constitution determines the ‘rule by which representation sho ed and fixesthe timesat which the rule shall be applied. But how the Representatives | should be chosen by each State ; whether, in Districts or by General Ticket ; wheth- er, first in one mode, and then in another; whether, the Districts should be the same for ten years, or should be altered from time to time—all these things are left to the sound discretion of the Legislature of each State, subject only to the controlling power of Congress. And such has been the practice under this clause, Districts hav- been abolished, and a General Ticket es- tablished, and, again, the latter repealed and the former laid out by the Act of the State Legislatures. Indeed, the contra- ry doctrine would be attended hy start- ling consequence. Before the last Appor- tionment law, Congress had never pre- scribed whether Representatives should be chosen by General Ticket, or by Dis- tricts. Suppose then, at the Session of the Legislature of a State, at which this | matter regularly came up, alaw had been passed establishing a General Ticket, thereby enabling a small majority to si- | lence altogether in the House of Repre- sentatives the voice of a large minority. According to this doctrine, such a law is In vain, the people of the State declare their casaodt se uld be appoftion- | : epee i ndidate of the De : cast I ntat Should this*hippen™ve ‘should have voiceof the State disregarded and@ presetited bya Democratic majorit her Representatives in that bedy. ~ 7% If then, the object of having Represem tatives, be to express the opinions of the eonstitgents—if a Representative Kepy lic #8MOt to be reduced tm substance to condition of England under her old rotten ed and fairness encouraged in the dele- any consequence that North Carolina should speak her own wishes in the choice of a Chiet Magistrate—it, indeed, there be any thing in our form of Government wor- thy the love and confidence of intelligent and honest Freemen—it is plainly just, and an imperative duty of the General Assembly, to rid us of an odious GERRY- MANDER, and afford the People of the tate an opportunity to have a real, and effective, as well as an apparent influence in controlling the conduct of public affairs. So plain is this duty, that one of the best /men, and best Whigs of the State, altho’ taking no part in the political contests of | the day. has declared that the Whigs have | their choice of two things—either to re- | district the State, or else to admit that their charge of a fraudulent GERRYMANDER against the Legislature of 1842, is un- founded and false!

Wehave | + | | | | \ | { toHt most be very rare, if, in complicated differ- ences between great nations, peaceful relations can be preserved without sonfe modification of extreme pretensions ; and upon the present oc- easion, from the length of time for which the question had been depending, together with the oft repeated propositions on both sides, the two governments could not have been reasonably expected to.come to an amicable arrangement without sofhe mutual concession of their furmer ds. 1, on our side, by dividing on the h parallel and the Straits of Fuca, we yield. edsthe Southern capo of Vancouver's Island, to the navigation and unoccupied territory be. taveen the 49ih parallel and the Columbia river.

Of the power of. of the General Assembly, we had not sup. | posed that any doubt was entertained, and | it was with surprise we heard, within a few days, that one intelligent Whig has expressed an opinion aguinst the power. We propose, therefore in calling the at- tention of our readers to this great and im- | portant subject, to submit some views, to | show that the power exists, and ought to | be exerted. | | Frst, as to the power: The Constitution | | of the U. States, (Article 1, Sec. 2.) pro- | Vides that « Representatives and direct | | taxes shallbe apportioned among the sever- , ‘al States, according to their respective numbers, &c. The actual enumeration shall be made within three years after the first meeting of the Congress of the United | States, and within every subsequent term of ten years, in such manner as they shall by law direct.” By this clause represent- | ation is to be allotted every ch , ace ) years, ac cording toa Census to be directed by Con- gress; and thus, the “appointment” of its Representatives to each State is required | to be made for ten years, and when made ! it stands, of course, for ten years, Bat | how are the Representatives to be chosen? | —Does the Constitution, in any manner. | rquire or intimate, that the manner of choo. sing, shall be determined for the period o ten, or any other number of years? Section 4th of the same Article, is in these words: * The timesyplacesand man- ner of holding electiofs for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may, at any time, by law, make or alter such regulations, except as to the place of choosing Senatars.” Now hepe, is.a. matter: to be i e of a Stats i} ( | ! ‘ { pledged to repair the wrong, and repeal pinion, against justice, against the very principles of all fair representation. But if such a law can be repealed, so can a law laying out a State into Districts; for the sa ne reason which is alleged for ma- king the one unalterable, directly applies to make the other so. But, further: The apportionment of Representatives by Congress, determines | the number of Electors, to which each State shall be entitled in choosing a Presi- | dent and Vice President. The Constitu- tion, (Article 11, Sec. 1, clause 2.) pro-. | vides that each State shall appoint in such manner asthe Legislature thereof may .direct, a number of Electors, equal to the ' whole number of Senators and Represent- | _atives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress. Here is a case, exactly parallel to the one we are considering. The apportion- | ment of Representatives made hy Con.- | gre ss, determines the number of Electors —the opportionment is to be made once As to Sepresentatives, the Legislature of the State 4s, to prescribe “the times, places and manner of holding elections.” Asto Electors, the Legisla- ture is to direct the manner in which they are to be appointed. Now, there is noth- | ing, absolutely nothing. to distinguish the | one case from the other. in the point to which our attention is now drawn. regulation as to one, when once made, is ' necessarily to stand until a new appor- | tionment. so it must be as to the other: and if, on the contrary, such regulation as | to one case may be modified asthe Legis- | lature may deem proper, so may it also be as to the other. But, in regard to Elec- tors of President, our past history is full of | precedents, showing the power of altera- But it will be sufficient to refer to. tion. me one such precedent in our own State. ‘In 1802, an Act was passed, laying off the State into Districts for electing Represen- tatives, according to the Census of 1800; and in 1808. another. Act, for laying .off | the State into Districts fur electing Elec- ‘tors of President and Vice President. ac- | | In 1810, an- cording to the same Censvs. other Census was taken, and, at the Ses- sion of Congress of 181], anew apportion- ment was made, to take effect on the 4th | of March, 1813. And, at the Session of the General Assembly, held in 1811, be- ‘fore the new apportionment bill was pass- ed, a law was enacted, repealing both the Act of 1802, and the Act of 1803. and di- | recting the next General Assembly, (to “wit, that of 1812.) to elect Electors of , President and Vice President, by joint bal- | lot of both Houses !—thus, not only abol- ishing the Districts established by law. -under the Census of 1800, and which had | theretofore been in force, but transferring the choice of Electors from the People to ‘the Legislature! We therefore confident- : _ly assert that, upon a just construction of , we trust our readers will duly consider its sound- the language of the Constitution, as upon the practice of the States, no power is clearer than the power of the General As- sembly to remodel] the Districts establish- ed by the Act of 1842. The next question is—Ought the power to be exercised? And that, we apprehend, depends solely on the question—Is the ex- isting arrangement of Districts just and | fair? Does it enable the’ peaple of the State to speak their voice truly in the House of Representatives? We admit that 16 law ought to be changed without adequate-reason—no in tant law, with- outimportant reasons. - V these as sufficientere of oat ‘regalated by the} If a. /Mons, is misrepresented in the National | the law; it must stand against public o- | Councils by a Democratic Delegation, vo- _ ting for every measure disapproved by the | people, and against every measure which their interests and their opinions. require, | and ready, when the time shall come, to | cast the vote of the State for a Democrat as | President, although the People-shall have | declared by ever so large a majority for a | Whiggl From the Richmond (Va.) Times. PRICES OF GOODS. We ask th2 candid attention of our readers ‘to the following paragraph from the Journal of Commerce, a professedly neutral paper, but un- 'questionably the most strenuous opponent of the tariff of 1842, in this country : ‘- Dry Goops.—The opening sales of the season exhi- | bit prices greatly reduced from those of last year. Print- | ing cloths, which last year brought 74 cents, have recent- | ly been sold at 4 cents, and yet we are told that the new | millscan afford to make them. Calicoes have fallen in | something like the same proportion. The prices are now | quite aslow here as in England for common goods.— | Woolens too are very cheap, and our manufacturers.pave | acquired such skill that they make beautiful cassimeP@tor 65 to 75 cents, and yet save ‘something. There is no fear of England, France or Germany, in such a market. | Whether these prices are the conseguence of the exces- | sive action under a high Tariff, or the apprehended in- fluence of a lower one, we cannot say. The low prices | which both Protectionists and Free Traders have pre- | dicted as the consequence of high protection, have come | about and are present with us.” Perhaps the Southern reader needs to be in. ‘formed that a main objection to the protective | system at the North, has constanily been, that it Yet such is the fact, as it here appears, from the declaration of the Journal of Commerce, that, “the low prices, which both Protectionists and Frre ‘lrapers HAVE PREDICTED, as the consequence of high protection, HAVE COME ABOUT, AND ARE PRES- ENT WITH us.” ‘This: view was taken by Mr. Van Buren in one of his messages, and we well remember, was sustained with great earnest. ness by a Northern Democratic Governor, whose object was to convince the manufaclur- ers that they would ultimately lose by ‘protec. lion. But we wish especially to note the pregnant _admissjon of the Journal of Commerce, that pri- ces have greatly fallen under the tariff of 1842, according to the predictions oF ITS FRIENDS.— _ Account for it as we may, THE FACT Isso; and the people will be called upon to recollect it, when the effects of that beneficent law shall have passed away, by reason of its inconsider- “ate repeal. It istrue, the Journal of Commerce, with its usual disingenuousness, insinuates that the expectation of a lower tariff may have pro- duced these low prices; but. as the ‘Tribune well replies, “that paper ought to have stated, that this reduction began long before it was known or believed by our manufacturers that the Tariff would be reduced, and has been grad. ually going on ever since.” If it were shewn that there was a suddea fall in prices as soon as it was ascertained that the new bil] would he- come a law, then such fall might be justly attrib- uted to the anticipation of the change. And even if this should turn out to be go, it would not all mititate against the fact that the tariff of 1842 is a better measure than the new one, for reducing prices. The explanation is this, and | would produce low prices. | | ness. A smail surplus thrown upon a good sup- | ply must always produce a sudden depression of | price, whilst a small deficiency is apt tu cause a corresponding advance. Now, bythe reduction | of the tariff so as to admit foreign goods, it may | easily happen that prices will materially fall, by the introduction of a smali surplus from abroad, 'which thgefoveigner is ‘obliged to dispose of, | whether ata profit or not. It then becomes a race which shall hold out longest. The prices not remuneraling either party, one or the other must hreak down. Of course the side which. has the largesf capita! will sustain itself. “What; then, Will be the effect? _ Why, the supply be- | ing now reduced by destroying gne of the com. petitors, prices myst again rise, and be perpetu- } ally at the:mercy of the successful contestant.

My real feelings impel me to say, however, that I do -not desire a nomination as candidate for the Presiden- cy. Your letter finds me no aspirant for that office, and the agitation of such a question in iny present responsible posi- tion, is yet more a cause of serious regret, as tending to embarrass me in the suc- cessful prosecution of the existing war.— With this frank expression of my feelings, however, do not believe that I am insen- sible to the high consideration and kind approval of my fellow-citizens, which are warmly remembered and cherished.

Thrust out of our columns to-day, by the ex- tent of the official publication which occupies se much of our space, we regret to be unable to place a! once before our readers the interest- ing Address of the N. York Chamber of Com. | merce to our Minister just returning from the negotiation of the Oregon treaty, and Mr. Mc. Lane's reply, which have just reached us in the New York papers. Besides being of a spirit | commending them to the public approval, one of them (the reply) embraces matter that is | highly worthy of attention, We have at present, however, only space to sy that this latter document contains one par- agraph which—though most sound and right in the view which it takes of the basis on which Mr. McLane thonght, in going out on his mis- | sion, that the two nations should treat—entirely | surprises us by its explicit declaration that these | gere President Poun’s riews of our rights and | of the objects at which the negotiation should | sim. Nothing could well be more opposite | than the séntiments which our representative | hus attributes to the President as his genuine goes, and those which, down to this very Mes- sage submitting the treaty of the Senate, lie in | every way exhibited to the people of this coun- try, The passage of which we speak amounts | to an averment, from an authority the highest that could wel! be, to Mr. PoLk never enter- tained any but the most moderate and rational The pass. | jdeas as to our claims in Oregon. age which contains this averment is so brief and comprehensive, that, intending to publish ja our next paper both the Address and Reply, | we separate it from the body of the Reply, that | our readers may judge for themselves, from the test, rather than from our comment. “Having some knowledge, from my official position at the time, of the policy and objects d the conventiontion of 1828, Iam quite per- guaded that its main design was to lead, ina | future partition of the territory, to the recog. nition of onr claim to the country, not north, | bot south of the 49th parallel, and between that and the Columbia river. A division of the eodntry upon that principle, with a reasonable regard @ rights grown up under the joint pos. | session, always appeared to me to afford a just and practical basis foran amicable and honor. able adjustment of the subject. Such, also, I was satisfied were the views of our Govern. ment at the time I engaged in my recent mis. | sion; and in earnestly and steadily laboring to effect a settlement upon that basis, [ was but representing the policy of my own Government, and faithfully promoting the intentions and wishes of the President.” GOOD OLD DOCTRINES. We are battling as hard as we can for the good old doctrines that carried Jackson into power in 1828. It is refreshing to read some of the old Hero’s writings in the better and pu- rer days of the country. See how “the Gen- eral” lays duwn the Whig law to Mr. Cole. man: “T will ask what is the real situation of our agricul- tarists 7?) Where has the American farmer a market for his surplus products? Except for Cotton. he has neith- era foreign nor a home market. Does this not clearly prove, where there isno market, either at home or abroad that there is tuo much !abor employed in agriculture, and that the channels for labor should be multiplied 2 Com- » HH Mon sense at once points out the remedy. Draw from agriculture this superabundant labor, employ it in me- chanism and manufactures, thereby creating a home market for your breadstuffs, and distributing labor to the most profitable account, and benefits to the country will tesult. Take from agriculture in the United States, six Wundred thousand men, women and children, and you will at once give a home market for more bread-stuffs, than all Europe now furnishes us. Jn short, sir, we have teen too long subject to British merchants. It is time We should become a little more Americanized.” Will any one argue that Gen. Jackson was Wrong when he wrote the above, or does the “progressive democracy” gradually grow so | perfect that the doctrines of old Hickory are to } ibe repudiated. We wish some of our demo- ic friends would say, whether truth varies ith the times, or whether they have not swerv- d from those good old doctrines that carried into power, but which they have treated Contempt ever since accident rendered it ble for them to put them in practice.

DIRECT TAXES COMING | The “Journal of Commerce,” noticing some charges the Providence Journal and Richmond Whig have brought against it, of favoring direct taxation instead of a collection of taxes by the customs, says: ‘We state the truth about q rising favor for direct taxation, and give it ag our opinion that further agitation of the tariff question will be | likely to result in further reductions: and these | papers meet the matter with slang and tell us | we threaten.” | The Journal then does threaten excises | and stampts. instead of tariffs on imports, and an income tax also—“ a tax say on all | incomes greater than five hundred dollars /annually ; a tax on gold watches, coach- es, notes of hand, &c.; would such a plan | (adds the Journal) please the masses, and | upset the Democracy ?” | The “Globe” has an article something |. . /in the same vein: | Tt is now no uncommon opinion among a | large number of our people that a system of di- | rect taxation will have to be adopted ultimately | in this county, and we believe throughout the | world. | doctrine attempt to conceal their opinions.

We received this morning, by way of the Balize, the following note, informing us of the wreck of the U.S. brig-of-war Truxton—a supurb vessel of 10 guns. U. S. Revenue sTEAMER Leeare, S. W. Pass, Sept. 3d, 1846. Editors of the Picayune: I have just arrived from Ve- ra Cruz, which place [ left on the 29th instant, bringing with me despatches from the Commodore for the Gov- ernment. ‘The United States brig-of-war Truxton was wrecked on the loth ult., near the mouth of the river Tuspan. Two lieutenants and nineteen men reached officers and crew, including the captain, were made pris- oners, and it is said were marched off to Tampico. The yellow fever had made its appearonce on board the British vessels of war at Sacrificios. The scurvy prevailed to a great extent on board the Potomac frigate. The balance of the squadron were in good health. Santa Anna had landed at Vera Cruz. He was re- ceived with great demonstrations of joy—the city and castle both saluting him. He was permitted to land by Commodore Conner. It is presumed that he had a pass+ port. Yours respectfully, in haste, N.C. L. Another letter writer from the steamer Legare, dating Sept. 3, says—‘ Santa Anna is at Vera Cruz, or near by. He had a passport from our government, or he would have been taken prisoner. He was received with the roar of cannon from castle and city, ringing of bells, &c. “« Mexican papers received on board the Princeton two days before I sailed, stated that the Mexican army have refused to march against Gen. Taylor. No doubt exists but that some change is to take place in the country ; and the probability is that Santa Anna will again be President. It is reported that he is in favor of peace with the United States.” IMPORTANT NEWS FROM MEXICO— IF TRUE. ton intelligence from the Rio Grande, and the Cabinet : we: ae: ae Gtk : = MS ton of Gone ye PE mith, | ment, within the time prescribed by law, otherwise this the squadron at Vera Cruz in boats—the balance of the | Pep by adeno wlenat hav emicalyeiynr chelyournn The wo- | man and girls are Good Cooks,—they use the nee- | The New York Herald has received from Washing- | Mr per. 7 os mith, wed 103 montha: bloomed and cheered my heart fleeting comfort of an hour won g! air How soon we're called to-part.

It is as follows: A courier is now in this city, despatched by Gen. Tay- lor, from the head quarters of the Amer. army, and we are informed on the most reliable authority, that no pro- posals for peace whatever have yet been made either by the Mexican or American Governments, or by any of their accredited agents. | This messenger left after Santa Anna’s arrival in Mex- ico, and after he had had sufficient time to make advan- ces, if he intended to do so, towards our government. This news we hardly expected, but it is all explained | by the fact that Santa Anna had given assurances to his | friends that, in returning to resume the command of the | army, he should most implicitly follow the public will | and inclinations of the people of Mexico, in regard to | the war. He is now waiting to learn the popular feel- | ing. This is one item. The second item of intelligence brought by this cour- | ier is that the Ministers of England, France and Spain, | in the Capital of Mexico have given the gravest assu- rancesto Sonta Anna that neither he nor his government | shall receive from them one dollar, or the slightest en- couragement in prosecuting this war. | This arises evidently from the immense damages | which are flowing to the commerce and mining interests | of those nations, which are so seriously affected by ex- | isting hostilities.

The econ- omy and feasibility of such a system is superior to that of customs. By the removal of the lat- ter, many evils would be remedied, particularly that of every few ycars arraying the manufactur. ers against the government, and making the dis. tress of working people the means of warfare.” Who shall say, with these revelations, that we have not reason to apprehend that Direct Taxation will be made a furmal issue in the 9 MR. POLK’S HABITS. The extravagant eulogy of the Union upon the President, with its description of his personal habits, has elicited from Pren- tice, of the Louisville Journal, the follow- ing excellent burlesque : Mr. Polk’s College Life.—The Govern- ment editor, referring to this very inter- | esting period of Mr. Polk’s life, says: “It is said, and we believe upon relia- | | ble authority, that when at college hene-; 7" ; r _ver failed to attend a single recitation, or | inviting attention to the following extracts to perform any other duty required of | him.” | As Mr. Ritchie's information, touching Mr. Polk’s history while he was at col- | lege, is so very meagre we will take occa- sion to refer him to some other incidents ‘which occurred at that time, that strik- ingly illustrate the grandeur of the man, and which will, we have no doubt, great- In the same city the Journal of Commerce says ; “ There is one idea which all the papers who talk this way seem not to have thought of, viz: that there are various ways of raising revenue by what is ordinarily termed direct taxation. ly delight the government editor. “It is| , said, and we believe upon reliable autho- | rity,” that when Mr. Polk was at college, ernment, the work of their hands should | and, entertaining this view ourselves, we | be speedily undone, or remodel, so as to | herewith present several articles extract- | basis for another * panic,” There is no other reason assigned for the it was too and that he ought to devote his time why correct the evil complained of. With this view of the case, we are inclined to the opinion that re-districting should take place. It is an unquestionable truth that the Whigs had a popular majority in North Carolina, at the very time the Democratic Legislatute deprived.them of their influ- ence and power in the Congress of the United States by the manner in which they arranged her counties into Districts ; and increased that majority since then ;— | until now, they are largely in the ascen- | dant, as manifested both by the election lature. And yet, notwithstanding this, out of nine Representatives seat to Congress ; the Locos send str and the Whigs send three ; and thisis the effect of the district- ing law passed in 1842. It does seem to us that no man of honesty and even hand- ed justice can regard this subject in any other light than that in which we have endeavorcd to present it. But we will conclude our remarks by from other journals, on the same subject: RE-DISTRICTING THE STATE. The thing is almost visible to a blind-man, that the democratic legislature—commonly call- ed the Gerrymanding Legislature—of our State, which arranged the Congressional Districts, so arranged them as to enable the minority (the democrats) to send a larger number of delegates to Congress than the majority, who are whigs.

The suspension of some of our foundries and factories—if any do suspend in consequence of the new tariff—will not materi- ally influence the grain markets this year, as the unemployed factory operatives cannot be- _ come producing farmers until next year; and in | the mean time they will remain consumers of agricultural commodilies. The principal cause of the present rise’in price may be at'ributed to rumors from England of a failure in the potato crop, which shculd be received in this country Now, if our opponents had had a majorily of} with great caution, especially afier the disas- | trous consequences of last Year’s speculations founded upon sitnilar rumors. [n dealing with the English markets, we should remeniber the er that exists in that country. A serious drain | vented last year by the “famine panic.” Pri- ces of grain were pushed up in American mar. to hold their flour and graig in store, until at last, in the crash that ensued, the English deal- ers came into this ‘country in Jély and swept the markets of flour gt ‘about half the price they would hate had-to pay iythe winter!

We have not yet conversed with a single | planter who estimated the yield at more than | one-fourth—seven out of ten fix it at one-eighth of a fair average. The accounts from the up- land crop are more favorable, though in some of the counties, the worm has commenced its | ravages—too late, however, to do much damage. woe The “Fayetteville Carolinian,” says— Reports from the South, of the ravages of the catterpillar, aud the backwardness of the plant in consequence of so much wet weather, seem to indicate a short crop and inferior staple. The Charleston and Savannah papers, says the Wilmington Chronicle, give accounts of the | immense injury wrought on the Sea Island Cot- ton plantations, by the catterpillar. ‘The Sa- vannah Republican of the 9h, says : The crops on Hilton Head are nearly destroyed. We saw a letter yesterday from an overseer to his em- ployer, in which he states that the caterpitar is most destructive in its ravages, and that there is danger of their destroying the entire crops on two places of one hundred and thirty acres each.

Consul at Vera Cruz, confirming the intelli- gence. was to be given to the news thus brought ;_ but | as pronunciamentos followed one after another in such quick sucession in that distracted coun- try, it was possible there was some truth in it.

We have observed, with the deepest regret, the want.of this intercourse between ministers of different denominations in towns qnd cities, where it might be cultivated with so much ease and with so much profit. It is much to be deplored that they so seldom visit each other, and Jess frequently confer with each oth- er as to theemeans of promoting the common objects oftheir ministry, We would earnestly suggest a reformation in this matter. Letthem take the lead in the cultivation of more frequent intercourse with each other. ‘Their people would follow their example, And thus one im- portant step would be taken towards the estab- lishment of that christian union which is em- phatically the presént desideratum in the Church of Christ, i 2 Again. In towne and cities where it can be done so conveniently, we recommend the es- tablishment of a weekly union prayer meeting, to be attended by all the ministers and members of the different denominations as often as prac- ticable.

Fortunately Mr. B. was a man of good sense and manage- able temper, and. was 4hus able to appre- ciate insolence and puppyism at their true value. The imprudent and impertinent youth stammered out an apology ; but he was evidently so abashed and overwhelm- ed by his blunder, that he scarcely knew what he wassaying. The incident afford- ed him a lesson, however, and for a time, at least, the effect was salutary. The true doctrine in all matters of conversation, is beautifully expressed by 9 clever poet of the present day ; « Nay, speak no ill—a kindly word Can never leave a sting behind, And oh! to breath each tale we’ve heard, Is far beneath a noble mind Full oft a better seed is sown By choosing thus the kinder plan ; For if but little good be known, Still let us speak the best we can.” This rule is plain and simple. If we cannot speak well and favorably of an ac- qnaintance or friend, let us remain silent. If we cannot say something calculated to cheer, gladden, and delight, let us at least not pursue a contrary course. Our duty is to afford as much pleasure, and to pro- duce as much good as we can, in the world, and if our means with reference to these subjects be limited, we should at least en- deavor to restrain the evil propensities of our nature, to curb and control the demons of scandal, jealousy. ill-will, and all un- charitableness. We all have infirmities and failings enough. We all require the exercise of generosity and forbearance. Our imperfections, although invisible to ourselves, may be quite glaring to others. When, therefore, we indulge in a spirit of generous and charitable forbearance in relation to the errors of the rest of the world, we in some degree at least entitle ourselves to a similar judgment with re- | Nothing is ever lost | | ference to our own. by kindness and charity.

POLITICAL HUMOR. The humor of the London Punch is general- ly keen as well as witty. The following para- graphs are from a late number: “ Harp or Hearne.” —A night or two since Lord Brougham declared that “he had heard nothing of the potato disease!” Mr. Curtis, the aurist, waited upon his-lordship the next morning, and has from that time been engaged upon his lordship’s ears, with, it is feared, but very little hopes of opening them—to the mis- fortunes of others. It is stated that a River Jordan Company has been established for the purpose of furnishing persons in high life with water from that river for christening puiposes. The “Kilkenny cats, or Old and Young Ire- land coming to the Scratch,” is the title of an engraving which represents O'Connell and O’Brien as cats, with backs up, ready for a des- perate encounter : “Oh, leave them alone, They’ll fight to the bone, And leave naught but their tails behind ’em.” The following is Punch’s copy of the Prus- | sian Constitution : | We have been favored with the following oul- _line of the constitution the King of Prussia bas | promised to give his subjects om the 3d of this, /month.

RASHNESS OF SPEECH. “ Give me the heart that fain would hide— Would fain another's fault efface ; How can it pleasure human pride, To prove humanity but base ? No! let us reach a higher mood, A nobler estimate of man ; Be earnest in the search for good, And speak of all the best we can.” We sometime since ventured to offer a word of reproof in relation to the habit of speaking harshly, hastily, or without due reflection. The evil is so common, and is often attended with such evil consequen- ces, that we will be excused for referring to it again. It may be said to form one one of the greatest obstacles in the way of . Ghristianity—the greatest evil in the church the vice at times becomes almost insuffer- able.

[From the London Times. ] Salamanca. country for years, was lately captured and tried | by court martial. He was at first sentenced to | be shot, but the military authorities, thinking such a mode of punishment too honorable for such a miscreant, obtained its commutation to strangling by the garote. On the morning of the 3d inst., the turnkey proceeded, as is usual, to inform the criminal that the Judge of the First Instance, accompanied by the escribano, ' had arrived, to announce in form his sentence, and to transfer him to the condemned chapel preparatory to his execution. with one of his legs released from the fetters, having skillfully employed a file for that purpose which he had concealed on his person. Though still bound to the iron bar which tra- versed the dungeon, he flung himself on the turnkey, seized the massive keys, struck him on the head and dashed him against the wall out- side. He then locked the door and shut him- self up in the cell. the judge and chaplain implored him to cease such fruitless resistance and to open the door, or pass the keys through the grating. He re- fused, and uttered against them the most borri- | ble imprecations. A blacksmith was called to undo the lock, but did not succeed, its massive strength resisting all his efforts. Half a dozen strong men then tried to break open the door with crowbars and heavy pieces of timber.— They succeeded, and the door fell in fragments. |The fury of the criminal then rose to its height. | He placed himself behind a strong beam which | went across the upper part of the door on the inside, and brandishing the formidable key, ac- tempted to effect an entrance. The wounded man was dragged out by his legs by his com. rades. The others tried to enter in a body but it was impossible ; the door way was too nar- row. For more than a quarter of an hour be kept them at bay, and answered to the entrea- ties of the officers and the prayers of the priest with the most a\yful blasphemies and the most disgusting obscenitiss. He then flung the key at their heads with his utmost force, and scvere- ly wounded two persons. _Seping all.entreaties useless, a party of sol- diers was called to the spot. ” The officer of the guard ones, 01 ed him ta surrender, but he rep ssest ribaldry andthe sumMMULU —* pt Maprip, Aug. 8.—An act of singular feroci- | ty took place a day or two ago ‘in the prison of | A notorious robber and murderer, | named Patino, the terror of the surrounding | He was found | The officers of the prison, | tually broke the head of the first man who at. | 5.

Some years ago it was agreed in a gay party of ladies | _and gentlemen in London, that an adver- | tisement should be inserted in a morning | | paper, as from a young lady,rich and beau- | | tiful, who felt inclined to the state of mat- | ‘'rimony.

Toshow that this is the leading feature of the new i; the foregoing facts can doubt it, it is only necessary to refer to one other circum- stance which the New York Tribune col- - | Jects from the able article in Fisher’s Mag- azine, to which we have already referred. “The annual reduction of duties (made by the British Parliament) onraw material for manufactures amounted to £830,356, and onarticles partially manufactured to £400, »| 338 ; making the annual boon to the manu- ,| factures £1,230;594—equal to $5,906,351 —while the reduction of duties on manu- factured articles imported was only £18, 114, and on all other articles the reduction was only £124,155.” This single fact fur- nishes a key to the new policy of the Brit- ish government, which, so much lauded for its liberality, is in truth the very es- sence and embodiment of selfishness, Her commercial liberality, indeed, is on a | par with her negro philanthropy. Both are “unreal mockeries.” She pretends to have fallen violently in love with “ free trade” now, because her interests prompt her to that course, just as she affected an uncontrollable fit of philanthropy, when she thought, that by emancipating the West India slaves, she might undermine slavery in the U. States, We may he dis- posed to giver her credit for sincerity in her desire to encourage freedom in trade when she ceases to draw from the single article of Tobacco a revenue nearly as large in amount as our own government derives from its entire list of dutiable ar- British policy, if any, one, in the face of | to make while in a majority in 1842, and « liberal Englatid saiy democracy it does not-satisly us, nor yy it satisfy the Whig party. .

Some of the papers are already throwing out hints to. “Old Rough and Ready,” that his movements are not satis- factory: that the public are becoming restive and desirous of seeing the victories of the 8th and 9th of May, followed up | by others equally as brilliant; although | it is a well known fact, that so far as the | means of transportation have enabled Gen. Taylor to move forward on his way to Monterey, there has, as yet, no sign of an enemy been seen. How these re fi od able democrats can expect @ny* man to move with a large body of troops without adequate means of transporting ammunt- tion and provisions sufficient—to fight and | gain victories when there are no Mexi- | Cans to fighi—is past our comprehension.

Translated for the Boston Atlas, trom the Paris ‘Siecle,’ There has recently arrived in Paris a young English lady, already the widow of her fifth husband. This chance, this uncommon series of widow- hoods, is the more extraordinary, that the lady in question has not reached her 25th | year. The history of her several mar- Tiages is so strange, both as a whole and in its particulars, that we should hardly dare to relate them, if the world had not already given credit tothem. The saloons of the English, almost the only ones to re- main open in this season of general de- “sertion, dispute for the honor of this young widow, and trom them we derive the fol- Jowing narrative of her conjugal adven- tures ; . Mrs. *** was not quite 16 years old when she contracted her first marriage at Gretna Green. This matrimonial locality is sufficjent evidence that it was a purely sentimental union. Two rivals disputed for young affections ; one was favored by “her family, the other by herself.

As, in most ca- ses of reasoning @ priort, all the tacts rel- evant to the issue are not brought before the mind. Those who urge this objection do not seem to have inquired into two ve- ry important matters of fact, viz: how far the people of England are under the necessity of manufacturing cotton: and how far, by reduction of duties in any way bearing on the manufacture, England is capable of reducing the cost of the fabric. These objectors had, even as many as fif- teen or eighteen years ago, falsely assum- ed that the cost of fabricating in England was reduced to ifs lowest rates. We will inquire into this branch of the subject more fully presently. Nor do these same objectors seem to have looked into anoth- er question of fact equally important, and that is, whether our duties upon the im- rted fabric have ever affected the a- mount of American cotton consumed a- broad.

American citizens would | deem such an effort to separate them from | ment and the Government to which they owe alle- giance, as a degrading imputation upon their patriotism and as an insult to their understandings,—and though. like the Mexicans, they might conceal this feeling in the presence of a powerful enemy, they would net be less prompt to assail him whenever a reverse of fortune should en- able them to strike an effective blow.— Such will be the fate of our army in Mex- ico. Furnished readily with such supplies as they required, and as the Mexicans were able to dispose of, at prices which all. accounts concur in representing as most enormous, our army will neverthe- less find, should they meet with a reverse of fortune. (which we do not, however, think at all probable.) a formidable and ferocious enemy in their rear, whose seem- | ing friendship, as all accounts now con- cede, is but a perfidious mask, which they are eager to throw off. The truth is, the people of Mexico,—even those bordering most nearly on the United’ States—can never be incorporated with the citizens of this country. Of distinct races, they are still more widely separated by differences _of religion and by their social habits and customs; and, so intense and enduring is thi$ antagonism of feeling, that even if the war shall be terminated by the an- nexation to the United States of all that portion of the Northern Mexican States bordering upon the Rio Grande, from its source to its mouth, there will be almost & Universal exodus of the Mauritarian race by whom it is now populated, be- tween whom and the Anglo Saxon, if there he no actual antipathy, the points pt assimilation are too few and feeble to ren- der their amalgamation possible. But, we are digressing. A New Or- leans correspondent of the National Intel- ligencer relates the following anecdote, for the purpose of showing the views and expectations of our government when the | war commienced : “A field officer of the army, now with Gen. Taylor, told me, when passing through phere, that he was in Washington last spring when the first news arrived of hos. tilities, and Congress adopted prompt mea- sures for the war; he was conversing with a prominent member of Congress, the chairman of an important committee, which brought him in constant and confi- | dential communication with the Govern- ment, of which he was an ardent politi- cal supporter, and this officer was stating his. views as to the most effectual plan for prosecuting the war against Mexico; and after he got through doing so, added that if his plan was followed he thought the war might be brought toa close by Janu- | ary next. ‘- January py ~yman.in reply with much astonishment ; 3 Pe as E : Ge ee qn. “#why, sir, if we cannot close this war by July, the sooner we buy off Mexico the vbetter.” “ Well, sir.” said the officer, “if such are your expectations, the sooner you begin to get the money ready to buy ‘her off the better.” : yas From the same letter we make the fol- lowing interesting extract, from which the | reader will be enabled to form some idea of the folly of the Administration in at- tempting to carry on a “ war of concilia- tidn,” and the immense expenditure to .

The two companies of Texas Rangers, under Captains McCulloch and Gillespie, returned last evening from a scouting tour in the direc. tion of Monterey, and brought back more full information of the enemy than has been hereto- fore received. Capt. Meade, of the ‘Topographi- cal Engineers, accompanied the Rangers, hav- ing been sent out by Gen. Worth, to examine the roads. The party started from here on Friday after- noon, without pack mules or baggage of any kind, and with only three days’ provisions.— Refore sundown, and at the foot of the moun- tains, a suspicious looking Mexican was caught, He endeavored to escape by running, but on finding that his horse was unable to carry him off safely he turned at some cattle he saw by the roadside and pretended that he was a vaca- ra, or a cow-driver, and hunting an astray.— This ruse, however, did not get him off, and a great deal of information was finally extorted from him by threats.

Eprrors: Some anonymous writer jn the last Farmers’ Journal, signing himself An Observer,” takes the liberty of berating the Merchants of our Town to 8 considerable ex. tent; whether for real or supposed offences, I cavnot say. But as it may possibly have some weight to the injury of our Merchants with those who are ignorant of .the reasons why this un- called for and illiberal attack has been made up- on them by the reformers of the Locofuco party of Salisbury, I will here, as briefly, as I can, give the pullic some few reasons which strike me as indicating the cause. First, then, the Merchants of Salisbury, are all staunch and un- wavering Wuies; at all proper times doing what every lover of his country will do, exert- ing themselves in behalf of those principles which they believe right ; and consequently a- gainst Locofocoism—against the increase of Brecutire power—Executive dictation and a- gainst Executive encroachments upon the liber. ties of the People. Secondly: Because the Merchants can’t buy goods and sell them at such prices to confirm the predictioas of British free traders, about the golden harvest we are to have under the workings of the Locofoco Tariff, which Mr. Cameron, a democratic Senator in Congress, from Pennsylvanic, said was the on- ly Tariff Bill, ever passed by an American Con- gress, which discriminated against American labor ? But the main object of this tirade of abuse, I believe, ia to injure them on account of their “devoted attachment to Whig Principles, and he. cause their influence has been felt more than once, in certain quarters, quite powerfully. I appear not as the advocate of such an honora- ble and useful class in our ‘Town, but take the liberty of saying this much in their defence, as I believe them to have been abused and villi. out of office, and had no political right to app! fur office under a democratic adpoigistenion” 4 Era got bis authority for say cag: cous Nepareeeated have al to castyidicule dicule ppon him—-h ever le bis. censure 1.:‘gbt have.

We might, to be sure, very safely defy it to point fo any thing in the Constitution of the United States justifying such an assertion, but we know the democracy re- gard the Constitution aga mere matter of moon- shine. We might even challenge the New | Era to prove his assertion by the “ Resolutions of ’98 and’99;” but we will not do it. We shall be content with thanking the New Era for its candor in giving the true creed of his | party in regard to office. When Gov.

Letters from Washington also state that orders are to be transmitted to | fied in the last Farmers’ Journal, unnecessari- ly, and for selfish purposes. I know those ata distance acquainted with the Merchants of Sal. isbury, will pay no regard to what has been published in the organ of democracy here, and trust no one else wil feel the least hesitancy in coming to trade or pay cash for such articles as they want. I have all along thought it was the pride of our citizens to encourage and in- crease the trade of our town ; but it appears J am mistaken, and that Locofucoism, true to the destructive and levelling principles which gov- ern ‘t in other portions of the Union, is just be. ginning to develope itself in its proper charac. ter in North Carolina.

And the ominous silence which pervaded the whole company, told how sensibly all felt themselves in the very presence of the King of Terrors, uncertain of their doom, It was wonderful to see how hw changed the condition and fo board. The grades and distin so large a company, varying in social position, Citizens of almost all countries, and professing different creeds,"yet, in the presence of so im, minent danger, all- distinctions seemed merged ‘into’ one common emotion of awe, as we stood With sides of the ship, whic nounced the apostolic benediction. Night approached. And again I quote from the gentleman who has kindly given an account of what took place below. ** Amid this accumulation of horrors, and stil] more to add to our alarm, night gathered in a- round us. The wind far from abating, was on the increase, the lulls in the storm being less frequent, and the squalls, if any thing, more ter- rific. The whole ocean was of sea foam, Jash- ed up into terrible waves, wild and angry. whilst the spray and_wind seemed drive rigging and over the ship, as if wi power. short hours slings of all on Chions incident to n through the th demoniacal As darkness came, clustered together , in the cabin, we all thought and reflected on our fate.

At this crit- ical moment, the engine was true to her duty. Sull went on its revolutions, and round and round thundered her iron water wings. Grad- ually recovering her upright position the good ship with head quartering the sea, came up to her course, and all was well. It was the cli- ‘max of the storm,—the last great effort of the whirlwind king, to send us to the sea giants’ cave below.” ' On Monday about 12, the storm had abated sufficiently to admit of standing on the upper step of the companion.way with safety. It was a sublime, but awful spectacle. The ocean still labored under the effects of the hurricane. The wind veered 20 points in 36 hours; it is impossible to imagine or describe the wild and | tangled confusion of the waves. Rising to a height apparently greater than that of the main- mast, they leaped and roared around the ship, as if hungry and maddened at the Joss of their prey. At times the Great Western seemed as if lowered by unseen spirits into her watery . i grave ; and every moment you expected it to be filled in, and her requiem sung by the winds amidst the wilderness of waters. But our danger was past, and with gratetul hearts on Tuesday morning al} assembled in the cabin, when religious services were per- formed by Rev. Drs. Smucker, Beecher, Balch, and other clergymen on board. A meeting of the passengers was also held, Archibald Gracie, Esq., being called to the chair, and resolutions were adopted suited to thescircumstances of the case, A letter of thanks to the Captain and other officers of the ship was also drawn up and the sum of £200 was raised to present to the off. cers and crew, of which the Captain was as <- ed to accept £80. A fund was also started fi the support of the widows and children of those who perished at sea, to be called the Great Western Fund. So closes the record of this memorable storm. | But never can its recollections be effaced from the minds of those who were exposed to its perils, When the danger had passed, said the Capt. to me,—* Thrice on deck [ thought destruction inevitable.

It required strong _ mitigating circumstances to procure the ' Executive intervention, but the able At- torney employed in the case left nothing _untried that could be accomplished by en- ergy and perseverance.

He then turned to the acting. - Governor of the Province and the three Aleades, ‘of the city, and asked them if they were witing: to take the oath of allegiance. They answe inthe affirmative. Afier administering the oath, he told them to continue in the exereise of all their duties as befure.

General Ampudia acknowledged 7000 as the number of his troops but it probably amounted fully 11,000. Our loss is severe. The 1st, 3d and 4th Infantry suffered, with the Tennes- see Volunteers on the 21st under the eye of Gen. Taylor. Gen. Taylor escaped unhurt, but was greatly exposed, his horse was wound- ed. : | with fragments of rock, dust and gravel. This fire was accompanied by a constant discharge of musketry, the euemy covering the upper part of the hill side, but the detachment continued te move up, driving the Mexicans back, until they were recalled. Capt. Smith’s party now ar. rived and moved up the hill, the Rangers in a7. vance, and did not halt for an instant until the Mexicans were driven from the summit. Whilst this was going on, Col. Persifor F. Smith, who commanded the 5th and 7th Infantry—the 5ib, with Blanchard’s Louisiana boys, under Ma). | Martin Scott, had been ordered to support the whole—gave orders for these commands to pass around on each side and storm the fort which was situated about half a mile back of the sum- mit on the same ridge and commanded Bishop's Palace.

IN COMPANY. No matter whether the company be large or small, you may be sure that all you say against an absent person will reach him. You have done wrong, and fn avenger will be found. I admire the warning which St. Austin is said to have had inscribed inthe centre of his table at which he entertained his friends— ; “ Quisquis amat dictis absentem rodere amicum, Hanc mensam indignain noverit esse sibi.” There is an almost universal propensi- ty in mankind to slander each other, or, at least, to throw out hints which detract from the good opinion which they sappose may be entertained of their fellows. The detractor cheats himself most egregiously, but never others. Ife tacitly believes that he is pushing this one, and thrusting that one, with the charitable purpose of keeping the unworthy out of the seat of those.who merit tle esteem of all. “1 remémber to have read in Diodorus Sicu- tos an account of a very active little ani- mal, which, I think, he calls the ichneu- mon, that makes it the whole business of his life to break the eggs of the crocodile, which he is always in search after. This instinct is the more remarkable, because the ichneumon never feeds upon the eggs he has broken, nor any other way finds his account in them. Were it not for the incessant labors of this industrious animal, Egypt, says the historian, would be over- Tum®-with crocodiles; for the Egyptians are so far from destroying these pernicious ereatures,thatthey worship them as gods.” “Do not those who may be denominated detractors of mankind, congratulate them- selves that they are disinterested, like this little animal, and are really acting the part of benefactors of mankind?

He replied, with great good-na- ture and simplicity, that “as soon as a. man was gone, they all began to talk a- gainst him ; and, consequently, he thought it always judicious to stay till none were left to slander him.” \, The habit of flattering your friends and acquaintances is pernicious to your own character. It will injure yourself more than others. It is well understood among ‘men, that he who isin the habit of flat- tering. expects to be repaid in the same coin, and that, too, with compound inter- est. This isa very different thing from bestowing that encouragement upon your friend in private which he needs for the purpose of calling forth praiseworthy ef- forts. Flattery is usually bestowed in pub- lic—probably for the purpose of having witnesses, before whom your friend now. stands committed, to return what you are now advancing tohim. But judicious en- couragement will always be zivenin pri- | If you flatter others, they will feel |‘ ; a its final recovery, which commission he execu- | vate. bound to do soto you; and they certainly will do it. They well know that there is no other way in which they can cancel | the obligations which you have imposed upon them ; because no compensation but this will be satisfactory. Thus you hire others to aid you to become your own dupe, and over-estimate your exccllencies, whatever they may be. For a very ob- vious reason, then, you will deny yourself the luxury of being flattered. And espe- cially do not fish for such pearls. You cannot do it, in a single instance, without having the motive seen through. You may have been astonished at seeing young men greedily swallow praise. when they could not but know that he who was daub- ing was insincere. It used to be a mat- ‘ter of surprise to me, how it is that we love praise, even when we know that we do not deserve it. Johnson, at a single plunge. has found the philosophy of the fact. “To be flattered,” says he, “is grateful even when we know that our praises are not believed by those who pro- nounce them ; for they prove at least our power. and show that our favor is valued, since it is purchased by the meanness of falsehood.” The desire of the approba- tion of others, for their good opinion alone, is said to be the mark of a generous mind. I have no doubt it is so. Against this de- _ sire 1 am breathing noreproach.

Smithson’s last will and testament is dated Bentinck street, Cavendish square, city of Lon- don, October 23, 1826. He bequeathed the ‘whole of his estate to his bankers, Messrs. 'Drummonds, of Charing Cross, in trust to be To John 'Fitall, a former servant, a life annuity of £100 To Henry James Hungerford, disposed of in the following manner ; sterling. a nephew, the whole of the income of the resid of his property, during lite, and after his demise to his child or children, legitimate or illegitimate. In case of the death of the nephew, without leav- | ing issue, the testator wills as follows: “ I then bequeath the whole of my property to the United Slates of America, to found, at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institute, an establishment for the increase and diffusion of | Mr. Hungerford con. | 9 me es bP] knowledge among men. tinued to receive the income arising from the. property until the year 1835, when he died, without children and intestate.

On the Ist of September, 1838, Mr. Rush deposited in gold, at the Philadelphia mint, the sum of $508,- 318 46, being the proceeds then recovered of the bequest. Unfortunately, however, Congress subse- | quently authorized the investment of the fund in | State bonds—those naughty things which have cost us poor Americans so many severe scold- | ings, and afforded the Sydney Smiths and Lon- |} don Punches such glorious opportunities for dis- plays of their sarcasm. ‘The State of Arkan- ‘sas alone got $499,500 of the money, and Ohio, The ob- ject of Congress in authorizing this investment ~Tllinois and Michigan the remainder. was doubtless highly commendable, viz: to in- crease the fund by the accession of interest.— But subsequent experience has too painfully The prin- cipal of most of these bonds is not redeemable until the years 1860 and 1870! and, to cap the clmax, the Arkansians have paid not a cent of interest since July, 1841. ‘The amount due from that State alone is accumulating at the rate of $32,000 a year, and amounts at this day (ex- clusive of the principal) to over $200,000.— Michigan and Illinois have also followed suit, Ohio alone meeting her instalments. We trust the day is not far off when all these States will be able to wipe off this dark stain from their es- cutcheons.

Tucker—As a science, agriculture. in- Sydes in all its branches, & knowledge as ex- Aensive, and as difficult completely to master, as many of the learned profeggions. It is a » field continually open for new investigations, J within a few years, since men ofelearning ny are the advancés which have been made-t® wards clevating it to a standard which it justly | deserves. There are doubtless many who are | far excelled in some of its ramifications, but very few who have attained that perfection which places them beyond the point of being taught. It is a pursuit which offers the liberal mind opportunities for research and experiments which are denied him in almost every other branch of science. If he turns his attention to these, after much severe toil and labor, he is doomed to meet with. disappointment, having learned that the perfection to which the science has already attained, leaves no room for his re- | searches. But let him devote his enthusiastic toi] to agriculture, and if he@foes not make some | important discovery, he may ga far towards ar. | ranging the thousand discordant facts which | have been banded down from time immemorial. | It Is to be regretted that there is not among | the majority of farmers, a more inquisitive spirit in regard to the nature of the ubjects with Which they are so intimately connected, and from which they expect to derive, not only their subsistence, but their hope of gain. The leading object of Agricalture, is to increase the quantity, and im- prove the quality, of the productions of the soil, and to do it with the least expenditure, or in other words, with the greatest profit, without impoverishing the soi]. In order to accomplish this, we must resort to experiments, and bere again opens a wide and extensive field. In con- sequence of the great varicty of soils, experi- ments in different kinds, though nearly of the same nature, will not produce like results. The leading principles of agriculture are ev- er the same ; animal and vegetable matter, af- ter decomposition, furnéh food for plants, while heat, air, and moisture, aid in nutrition. There is nothing practically considered, which has done more towards improving the minds of a majority of farmers, than the circulation of a | | | well conducted agricultural paper. Itisa means, | when contributed to by able and practical far. | mers, by which every man may derive new and useful information. Its contents are made up of the results of the most careful observation, } | and consists in itself of a general storehouse of knowledge from which all may draw something new and servicable. It also furnishes a com. | | mon medium for farmers to communicate and receive instruction, thus enabling them to profit by the experience of each other. Among the list of agricultural papers, none rank higher (or , ; have a greater circulation.) than the Cultivator, 4 and it is only regretted that it does not make | of its friendly visits more frequently. | & Middlebury, Vt.

Mr. Tucker—As every one has his own pe- culiar notions, I have thought I would give you my experience on the improvementof poor land. About twelve months ago, I read a work on calcareous manures, by Mr. Ruffin, of Virginia. As well as I recollect, the autho: lays it down asa fundamental axiom, that poor land cannot be permanently improved by putrescent manures alone. While mounted on a favorite hobby, especially if he ambles pleasantly and willingly, | we are too apt to spur and flog the beast to death. Such is the enthusiasm with which this | very respectable author has got astride of his | hobby of calcareous manures, that he is dis- posed to undervalue all others. It is an amia- ble error he has#failétinto, and without at all underrating thejttue value of. higfavorite man. ure, I give you the result of my OWu experience. Abgut eight yeats ago, I began to practice the ine Agbiry. on ano containing B.aetes of barren sand, nothing else g in the composition of the soil.

Ampudia must be utterly ignorant of the complot in which he is at present mixed up, | because he is not a very brave man, and it is | believed that neither for money nor glory would he expose himself to undergo imminent peril. In fact, I believe, that with the exception of _ three or four of the most elevated men among them, Gen’ls Santa Anna and Almonte, all the | Mexicans are ignorant of this plot; and evenI | would not know it myself, if an extraordinary | "circumstance had not presented itself to afford /me the means of being initiated into the secret | \ machinations. “Gen. Santa Anna obtained from the Gov- ernment of the United States a passport, or safe- | | conduct, in order that Commodore Conner, | This passport was given under condi tions and arrangements, of a character extraor- _dinarily Machiavellian. As far as I have been able to ftearn, Gen. Santa Anna has engaged with the Government | of the United States, to manifest publicly, that | _he prosecutes the war with energy ; but, at the | | same time, all his movements, and every one of | | his operations must be, by pre-arrangement | ruz. | 1 with the Government of the United States, con- | _ducted in a previously understood manner. For this purpose the Mexican Government will em. | | ploy its officers and chiefs, of inferior military ' character, and, if it should be possible, the troops of less value and importance with them, in or- der that it may be impossible for them to devise plans or effect measures that could be detrimen- ‘tal to the Army of the United States. Quarrels and skirmishes will take place between both f { | part of Mexico, that no result favorable to the | cause of Mexico will follow from them. F “Through these operations, Mexico will lose ft | several thousands of her inferior soldiers—and ‘| thus it will be partly freed of the plague which is knawing at the vitals of the country. «The party in the secret of affairs, seeing these results, and CONVINCED, at last, that the United States troops will triumph, they will prosecute the war with that Republic, and it will then be unanimously decided by the Mexi- can people, that an amicable arrangement should*be entered into, which will be done in a manner profitable to the United States. Santa Anna’s responsibility will be covered by this act; treaties will be formed, and a settlement of affairs will follow—the result of which will be, that Santa Anna will be appointed President | and Dictator of the Mexican Republic for a) term of eight or ten years ; and Mexico will be under the immediate protection of the United States, and by them will be protected. The ef- fort will be made to keep things in this state during Santa Anna’s life, so that afier his death, several States may be formed, which will be an- | | lie. “The Californias will become separated from the very moment.

A rathernovel decision was comé to two days ago by the civil tribunal of Paris, on an appli- cation madg¢ by a female for a separation from her husband, an oculist of some celebrity, but who has no fixed residence. The ground on which the wife sued for a separation was that the hisbandhad not provided for her a domicile conjugal, as required by law. The husband , met the demand first by stating that his prac- | tice lay indifferent parts of France, and that he | was compélled to travel from place to place, but | that his wile could find at the hotels at which he put up al the advantages of a fixed domicile ; | and, secondly, that as he and his wife were for- | eigners, andtheir marriage had taken place at Parma, the French tribunals were not compe. | tent to enteriain the question of separation.— | The tribunal considered the claim of the wife to a fixed domicile to be well founded, but declar. | ed that, before a separation can be legally pro- | { aiounced in France, it must be granted by the | tribunals of the country in which the marriage | had taken place. Considering, however, from the dependantstate of the wife upon the husband \ prosecute her demand in Parma, the Court order- ed the husband to pay to her immediately a sum of 1,500 frances, and to make her an allowance, t.the rate of 1500 francs a year,for her sup- rt until the question shall be decided. | | * The culture of rice has been tried on the salt | grounds at the mouth of the Rhone, and has succeeded perfectly. ‘This culture possesses the faculty of rendering the ground fit for any other kind of crop. The rich convent of Servites, near Prague, has lately been destioyed by fire. Not a sin- gle book of its extensive and valuable library could be saved.

At Salet many persons had already perished from want of food. Among the scholars who distinguished them- selves at the late examinations at the school of the Freres des Ecoles Chretiennes at Passy was Charles Marie Ab-del-Kader, of Milianah, nephew of the great Arab chief. He distin- guished himself in sacred history and the histo- ry of France, gaining for the first a prize and for the second an accessit.

The price of agricultural pro- _ducte in these markets has gone down, in some articles, at least one hundred per cent. ‘Thus, | it appears, that the democratic tariff was made to benefit a few who live near large markets, and to ruin the millions-who live in the interior.

She did so before Bhat tariff was reduced, as the Whigs al- sMfways said she would whenever she found it necessary to keep her population from WEstarving. The result has demonstrated PRthe wisdom and forethought of that party and its leaders. The idea that this trade can never be prostrated, is too entirely unsupported by any thing which has heretofore happened y b serious examination. A succession of good crops for .two or three years, the re- wivival of the potato root from its malady, wor the discovery of some proper substitute, ; would demonstrate its fallacy at once. ! Protection is the steady and regular pol- » Bicy of England; and she has never devi- Hated from the rule. She found that un- less she could obtain cotton on better terms, our manufactures, who paid no du- | , ty, would dtive hers out of the market.— , B Accordingly the duty on cotton was taken . Moff. This was an instance in which she $ Mwas literally compelled by our tariff to le- FB gislate with the semblance [for it was no- * Bibing more] of liberality. Now, her corn laws have been repealed, in part, for the » Msame reason. The manufacturer could p Minot compete with us, while he was com- pelled to pay four or five hundred per et. above the usual price on provision. As to the fact that the Baltic and Black Sea countries cannot supply any want which England may ever have, we have seen nothing to controvert it; and as we are anxious for light, we should feel oblig- ed to the Union for information relative to the whereabouts of thdMstatistics on which it seems to rely. That they may fail to do so at present, mabe true ; for the failure of the crops throughout Eu- Pope is general.

But the va- lor of his troops faltered at no opposition. Besides the soldiery, he had to fight the whole mass of the Mexican population, who fired from the tops of their houses and did great execution. To particular- ize the performance of any one regiment or command, where all did so well, would be an injustice. All have gained imper- ishable honor. The valor displayed by our whole Army is unparalleled in histo- ry. Individual acts of heroism were per- formed which will render the act immor- tal. Gen. Worth has covered himself with glory. His tactics, as displayed in the capture of three of the most important forts, will vie in brilliancy of execution _with those of Wellington and Ney. Maj. Ridgely has won new honors. For cool, determined bravery and _ skilful ma- neuvring, he receives the highest praise. The Texan and volunteer troops have gained imperishable renown.

The vice of lying evinces such a total depravity of heart, such an i entire absence of all the finer and all the nobler feeling of our nature. such a close attachment to vileness—such inbred base- ness and insensibility to shame—that one who indulges in it may well be consider- ed as out of the pale of humanity. The devil exhibited a due regard for correct taste, when he was about to approach the first woman with a lie; he laid aside the form of even a fallen angel and assumed that of a snake—the most loathsome of reptiles—the most hateful of created things. ‘he extent of evil which society endu- res in consequence of this vice, is not ap- preciated, forit does its cowardly work in the dark ; it creeps up behind you on nything; that lying’ is the; vices.

From Todd’s Student’s Manual. WATCH YOUR TEMPER. There is much said about the natural | disposition and temper of men; and the | fact, that any one has a temper which is unhappy and unpleasant, is both account- 'ed and apologized for, by saying that his | temper is “naturally” unpleasant. It isa comfortable feeling to lay as much blame upon nature as we can; bat the difficulty | is, that the action, to use a law term, will not lie. Noone has a temper naturally so good that it does not need attention and cultivation ; and no one has a temper so bad, but that, by proper culture, it may | become pleasant. One of the best discip- lined tempers ever seen wasthat of a gen- tleman who was, naturally, quick, irrita- ble, rash, and violent; but, by having the care of the sick, and especially of derang- ed peuple, he so completely mastered him- self, that he was never known to be thrown off his guard. The difference in the hap- piness which is received or bestowed by the man who guards his temper, and that by the man who does not, is immense.— tressing, and so intolerable to others, as that of having adisposition which is your master, and which is continually fretting | itself!

And so it happened that en this a cloud seemed to fall from before the eyes of the priest; and when he again looked on Jovinian he knew him to be the emperor, and he pitied him, clothing him with such poor garments as he had, and went with him to the palace gate. The porter stood in the gateway, and, as Jovinian and the priest drew near, he made a lowly obeisance, and opened the gate for the emperor. “ Dost thou know me ?” asked the emperor. “ Very well, my lord.” replied the ser- vant; “but I wish that you had not left the palace.” So Jovinian passed on to the hall of his palace; and as he went, all the: nobles rose and bowed to the emperor; for the usurper was in another apartment, and the nobles knew again the face of Jovin- ian. But a certain knight passed into the pre- sence of the false emperor. ‘ My lord,” said he, “ there is one in the great hall to whom all men bow, for he so much re- sembleth you that we know not which is the emperor.” , Then said the usurper to the empress, “Go and see if you know this man.” “ Oh, my good lord,” said the empress, when she returned from the hall, “ whom can | believe? are there, then, two Jo- vinians ?” % “T will myself go and determine,” re- joined the usurper, nalpsook the empress those that | have been deprived of.” . ; “Rascal,” rejoined he porter—* thou | she held down her head, and said. with a the emperor!

A portion of the fund is also set apart fur the purpose of breaking up and fenc- ing the ground in the new territory to which the Indians are to remove. A commencement of agricultural operations will thus be made a- | mong them, which it is hoped they may be in- duced to continue. Another considerable por- tion of the consideration money named in the treaty is to remain in the hands of the Govern. | ment, at an interest of five per cent., to be pai annually to the Indians, for their use and bene- fit through a period of thirty years. Indeed, through all the provisions of the treaty, the pur- pose has been kept steadily in view so to pay and distribute the sum stipulated to the Indians for their lands as best to secure their comforta- ble subsistence, and to open to them as far as possible opportunities for improvement.” GENERAL KEARNEY. The Albany Argus says:— “The Conquest of New Mexico.—We per. * by the oaths ye have sworn, deter- mine between me and this man.” And the empress answered, “ let me, as in duty bound, speak first. Heaven be my witness, | know not which is my lord /and husband. And all the nobles said the same. Thereupon the feigned Jovinian rose and spake : « Nobles and friends hearken ! that man is your emperor and your master: hear ye him; know that he did exalt himself above that which was right, and made himself equal unto God. Verily he hath been rewarded; he hath suffered much indignity and wrong, and, of God’s will, ye knew him not; he hath repented of his grievious sin, and the scourge is now re- moved; he has made such satisfaction as man can make. Hear ye him, obey him.” As the feigned emperor thus addressed the astonished nobles, his features seemed illuminated with a fair and spiritaal light, his imperial robes fell from off him, and angel of God, clothed in white raiment. And, as he ended his speech, he bowed his head, and vanished from their sight. Jovinian returned to his throne, and for three years reigned with so much mercy and justice, that his subjects had no cause As to regret the change of their emperor.— r, three years, the same angel appeared to him in a dream, and warned him of his ‘death. So Jovinian dictated his troublous life to his secretaries, that it might remain as a warning unto all men against world- ly pride, and an incitement to the perfor- mance of our religious duties. And when he had so done, he meekly resigned him- self, and fell asleep in death. Doings of the Mob in Nauvoo.—If the ac- counts from this unfortunate city be trae—and they are from anti-Mormons—the existing state of things are to be deprecated by every citizen. Many of those who participated in the doings about Nauvoo are censuring in strong terms the conduct of that portion of the mob who remain in the city of Nauvoo. The driving off the new citizens and iefusing to suffer them to return— the ducking in the river of whum they please | —the breaking open of houses and ransacking | them—the searching of inhabited houses, &c., | to say nothing of the report of robberies, has | completely cured some of their strang sympa- thies fur the mobocrats.

In addition to this, they have a film or coating which can suddenly be thrown down over the eye to protect it; be- cause at the velocity at which they fly, and with the delicate texture of their eye, the least speck of dust would act upon it as a penknife thrust into the human eye.

Here Miss Thompson was detain- ed as a slave, and closely confined, until a report of her uncommon beauty having ‘reached the. Emperor Muli Mahomed, she was by his orders removed to the im- _perial palace. and every inducement held out to her to embrace the Mahomedan faith, and to accede tothe Emperor’s de- ‘sire of making her his wife. Whether it /was by persuasion, or from conviction that her fate was irrecoverably decided, her various scruples were overcome, and she became the wife of Muli Mahomed, ‘and subsequently the mother of two sons, who bore the names, the eldest of Muli ed. perial husband’s wives, for he had many besides ; and the number must have been great, as we have heard both from Mr. Clark and Mr. Romans, who were at once -established as merchants in Morocco, that the Emperor Mali Mahomed actually torm. | ed a regiment composed entirely of his own sons, to the number of 523, most of them being Moors.—Mr. Clark says that this wonderful fated lady, when he saw her in Spain. was dressed in the Moor- ish costume; and strange as it appears, she seemed in all respects to have adopt- ed the tastes of her new country in pre-. ference tu those of Christendom, for she atierwards returned to Morocco and there ended her days. “ Train up @ Horse in the way he should | go,” &c.—A few days since we were as- tonished at the unaccountable vagaries of a sedate-looking horseman, or rather of ‘his horse, a raw-boned animal, with a rough brown coat of shaggy hair and a sagacious, cunning look about his eye.— ‘There was a certain something about the whole expression of his bead that seemed to say that he knew his business as well as any other horse in the, faubourg, and didn’t want to be told how to do it. His rider, an individual with an unnecessary length of leg, seemed to be completely -dumfounded by the extraordinary move- ments of his animal, upon whose back he /appeared to have great difficulty in keep- ing. His pantaloons had retreated halt way up his legs by the exertion of riding. -and he wasin an exceedingly heated state and evidently considerably terrified—the “thick far on his beavar, except where it was conlined by a strip of black crape, fairly stood on end—and his hair was drip- ping with perspiration. The horse would canter along very quietly for a few steps, and then jump suddenly upon the ‘side walk, where he would gallop along close to the houses and then, without any warn- ing, wheel and scamper over to the oppo- site side of the street, nearly unhorsing his rider. In vain did he pull either rein |—he could not turn the course of the way- ward animal. At length he had appa- rently reduced him to obedience, when he evinced his desire to turn down a street, but as the rider’s business took him in an opposite direction, he ventured to suggest -his wishes by tugging at the other rein.— The horse wheeled with the quickness of a cavalry horse, and repeated his attempt to go down the street. All endeavors to induce hin to abandon his desire were ut- -terly useless. His owner evidently thought ‘it better to oblige the animal and come up ‘some other street to oblige himself, and /accordingly gave him the. bit and he gal- | lopped down the street, several times dash- ‘ing on the side walk, much to the discom- 'fiture of the rider and greatly to the ter- ror of- foot passengers ; but just as the unfortunate equestrian Was getting recon- ‘ciled to be taken out of his ‘course, his | | charger sprang across the street and com- | menced gallopping back, his unfortunate | rider entirely losing his equilibrium and | _and sliding off with the greatest ease jm- | As if satisfied with the suc- | cess of this Jastmaucuyre, this queernag.| opped,as if ous that he had made | a faux pass fof persohs ‘soon ‘collected, amov® ¥ vas the owner of: within a week. This sentence was, upon | appeal, confirmed by the Upper Coart.— |Scarcely an hour after the confirmation of the judgment. Mrs. Aston received an order from the director of police, to quit Berlin in two days, and the Prussian ter- ‘ritory within a week. She appealed to ithe King, bat received for reply that there / was no ground for modifying this order ; | And she left Berlin for Strasburgh. | PRESERVATION OF APPLES. | We think the followigg extract from | Downtne’s “ Fruits and Fruit ‘Trees of A- nenien” furnishes the best answer that | can be given to the various Inquiries we | have received in relation to preserving ap- | ples. | In order to secure soundness and preser- | vation, it is indispensably necessary that the fruitshould be gathered by hand. For | winter fruit the gathering is delayed as _long as possible, avoiding severe frosts, ; and the most successful practice with our extensive orchardists is to place the good | fruit directly, in a careful manner, in new, tight flour barrels, as soon as gathered | from the tree. These barrels should be | gently shaken while filling, and the bead closely pressed in; they are then placed in a cool shady exposure under a shed o- pen to the air, or on the north side of a building. protected by a covering of boards ‘over the top, where they remain for a fortnight. or until. the cold, becomes too sevére, when they are transferred to a} cool, dry seller, if which air can be ad- | A| cellar for this purpose, should be dug in| dry, gravelly or sandy soil, with, if possi- | mitted occasionally in brisk weather. ble, a slope to the north ; or at any rate with openings on the north side for the admission of air,in weather not excessive. | Here the barrels should be plac- | ed on tiers on the7r sides, and the cellar | ly cold. should be kept as dark as possible.

From the New York Journal of Commerce. The last number of Blackwood contains: » ih advanee. <a an article on the French opérations in Af- rica, deriving its information mainly from two recent works on that Se) by Capt. Kennedy, of the British Army, and the other by Count W. Marie, J Frenchman. The origin of the war be- | tween France and the Dey of Algiers, in | consequence of which, during the last fif- | teen years, according lo this article, half a million of French soldiers have perished, is thus described : “In relating the well known incident that ve rise to hostilities between France and the Dey of Algiers, Count St. Marie goes back to the remote cause, which, by his account, was a lady. Inthe time of Napoleon the Bey of unis had a favorite female slave, for whom he ordered, of an Algerine Jew,a costly and mag- mificent head-dres3s. ‘The Jew, unable to get F} manufactured in the country, wrote to Paris i be head-dress was made at an sxpense of welve thousand francs, and the modest Israel. te charged it thirty thousand to the Bey. ‘The Natter was too much pleased ss th the bauble to demur at the price, but, not being in cash, he paid it in corn. There chanced just then to be a scarcity in France; the Jew sold his grain tothe army contractors, and managed so well that he became a creditor of the French Gov- ernment for upwards of a million of franes. Napoleon fell, and the Bourbons declined to Bip: but the Jew contrived to interest the Dey of Algiers in his cause, and remonstrances were addressed to the French Government. The affair dragyed on for years, and at last, in 1829, on the eve of a festival, when the diplomatic corps were adinitted to pay their respects to the Dey, the latter expostulated with the French consul on the subject of the long delay. ‘The answer Was unsatisfactory, and the conse- quence was the celebrated rap with a fan or fly- flap, which sent its giver to exile, and convert. ed Algeria into a French province, On visit- ing the Kasbah, or citadel, at Algiers, Capt. Kennedy was shown the little room in which the insult was offered to the representative of France. It is now used as a poultry yard. *Singularly enough,’ says the captain, Sas we entered, a cock, strutting on the deserted divan, proclaimed his victory over some feeble rival bya triumphant crow—an appropriate emblem of the real state of affairs.’ But the conquer- ed cock is game; and although sorely punish. ed by his adversary’s spurs, he returns again aod again to the charge.” ae eS Oe 0, The writer of this article is of opinion that little has been done by the French to secure the affections of the people they. have subjugated. The old hatred of the Mussulmans against Christians has been preserved in its full force in Northern Af- It is believed that the Arabs still look for the ultimate of the rica. withdrawal French forces. The writer ventures no prediction on this point, but seems to have little confidence that Algeria will soon become less than a burden to France, or soon repay for the blood and treasure ex- | pended in its conquest. The following is | eS a striking picture of the Arab character: * They should beware of arguing too favor. ably from apparent calm submission on the part | of the natives. ‘Phe ocean is ofien smoothest | before a storm; the Arab most dangerous when | apparently most tranquil. Like other Orien. tals, he starts in an instant from torpor and in- dulence into the fiercest activity. ‘Phe Arab,’ | says a German officer, whose narrative of ad. | venture in Africa has recently been rendered | into English, ‘lies whole days before his tent, | wrapped in his bournouse, and leaning his head om his hand.

The letters were addressed to the late Willic Jones, of Halifax, then a member in attendance on Continential Congress.—Edit. Ral. Reg. \ Hittsporoven, Sept. 10, 1789. Dear Sir: Thad the pleasure to receive your favour, dated the 1&th ultimo, and am much obliged for the intelligence communicated. I -anxiously hope some important blow will be struck to the Northward, that may compensate for our misfortunes in this part of America.— Our prospects here a mouth ago were as favor- able as could have been wished. You know, sir, the requisition of Congress for specific sup- plies did not arrive in this State till after the rising of the Assembly in May: of course we had nothing to depend on (as to magazines, &c.) but the provisions supposed to be laid up by | Continental Commissioners, and our State mo- ney :—the latter, all your staff officers have been supplied with, to an amazing amount, and yet the army has been distressed greatly for want of regular supplies. However, sir, we | had in this respect overcome nearly all our dif- ficulties; wagons had been collected, the new crops of wheat were beginning to come in, beef had yot in good order, the second draft of milita vad been drawn out, and were forward on their march to head-quarters ; many wagons loaded with spirits were also on the road and near camp. And in order to provide effectually a- gainst any future wants of the army, I had ap- pointed a meeting of the General Assembly at Hillsborough, on the 20th ultimo; on the other hand the enemy had given up to us, the rich country of Pee Dee, and had retired to Camden, where they were in the deepest distress, with sickness, and the want of provisions and forage. Having thus in a manner insured the safety of this State, and part of South Carolina, and hav- ing got into the midst of that plenty on Pee Dee, | which the enemy had before been enjoying, everything indicated the most successlul and lappy conclusion of the campaign, when unfor- tunately it was determined to march directly | through the desert country, between Pee Dee and Camden, and to attack the enemy, whose ‘numbers were unknown, and thereby put to the risk of a single battle, all the advantages we had obtained, as well as the sure and certain prospects of future success we had in view.— As might have been fureseen and dreaded, so it turned out—the militia harrassed with hard marches, over a sandy, barren desert, and being attacked by the enemy in the night, six ofles from Camden, on ground they had never seen, lost their spirits and got into confusion, At this period, however, the army might have been saved; they only retreated about five or six miles to Rugely’s mills, where [am told a post might have been taken of perfect security ; instead of this, they were drawn up for battle, and remain- ed so till day light, when the enemy began the attack on our left, where the Virginia militia were posted ; these broke, on, and partly before the first fire, our militia next in the line follow. ed their example as far on as to General Greg- ory’s brigade, who bravely stood to the last and pushed bayonets, after their ammunition was exhausted. On the breaking ot the left wing of our line, the enemy rushed forward in pur- suit, until they were checked (as they very handsomely were) by the brave General Small- wood and his corps of reserve :—he fought an retreated, and the left of our standing troops being now entirely exposed, they were attacked in flank and rear, as well as front; however by their superior bravery they effected a good re- treat, but unfortunately no post had been as- signed to retreat to in case of accidents, nor were there any provisions laid up in the rear, so that the men had to make their way as they could through the country, each man and little company of men taking what route they thought best. In short, sir, in half an hour from the beginning of the action, our army was annihi- lated and the cannon, baggage and provisions deserted and left in the hands of the enemy, all of which might have been saved, had a stand been made as it safely might at the Waxsaws, or even at Charlotte. In the opinion of many gentlemen of rank and knowledge, a surer stand might even have been made at Rugely’s—it is confidently said, that one hundred men might effectually have stopped the whole British cav- alry at that post, by which our baggage might have been saved, and our men preserved from slaughter ; had the General even stopped at Salisbury, the evil might have been mitigated, _by the precipitation of his journey to Hillsboro’ _and the particular circumstances of it, the militia ran home, the regulars were without orders, the country was struck with consternation, and all seemed for a time to be given up for lost. Hap- pily for us, Col.

[a short, sir, we are for the present rel pretty much to ourselves for the defence of this State, in want of wagons, horses, macazi of provision, arms, ammunition. tena and blank. ets; and at a great portion of the interior part of the country against us—at the same time I have the pleasure to assure you, that our zcal and spirit rises with our difficulties, drafis are nearly at an end, our men yield to the necessi- ty of the times, and turn out to service with willing hearts. We are blessed with plentiful crops, and with proper laws, resources may easily be drawn forth for the defence of the country. As the assembly is now sitting and | have not closed the bills, I cannot give you any | satisfactory account of them, but will do it im- mediately after their rising. ‘The enemy have evacuated Georgetown. Since their departure | Col. Giles of South Carolina has marched into that place, and possessed himself of a quantity of ammunition and salt which they left. 150 of | the Maryland troops, taken in the late action, have been retaken on their way to Charleston hy Col. Marion and his party of volunteers.— | By the last accounts the enemy had not moved | from Camden, but were preparing to move, but : Whither, we do not know. Should they attempt to penctrate to the upper parts of the country, [ have no doubt the militia will make it a trou- blesome business to them. Nothing could be so seasonable and furtunate to us as the appear- ance of aid on the sea coast. ‘This would ef. : fectually draw their force to Charlestown, and ' would give those in South Carolina, Jately styl- ed tories, an opportunity of taking arms against | their present masters, which you may be assur- | ed they would do, for the insult and oppression : they have lately endured, has entirely cured them | of their fondness of the British Government. | The enemy’s force to the southward is estimat- ed here at about 2500 men, including sick and those wounded in the late action.

Dear Six.—Already you are acquainted with | the blow we received near Camden on the 16th of August, and I suppose of Col. Sumpter’s sur- , prise two days after. This indeed, was entire. | ly owing to the most stupid carelessness, and both happening as it were together, left us for a while without the shadow of an army; it was | in truth, a little staggering ; however, by vigo- rous and repeated exertions and from the for- bearance of the enemy, we are again in a sit- | uation to make a stout defence, if not to offend Our whole Regular Force a- | mounts to about 990, including 250 under Col. Beauford, lately from Virginia; they are all at , Lfillgboro’, and will not be able to move I fear, under six weeks, depending upon this State for ; supplies of all kinds, Tents, Clothings, Provis- | ions, and Waggons, &c. We have about 2000 Militia at Charlotte, and at least 1,000 more will be there in a few days, they are all pretty ' well armed, but badly accoutred ; at this place, | from the motions of the enemy, it is thought | they will endeavor to enter this State; we are | also about establishing a pretty strong post at Masks’ Ferry, on Pee Dee, near Anson Court , House ; your brother marches on Saturday with about 700 men from this District for that place. The enemy’s principal post I believe, is at the | g Waxsaws about 40 miles from Charlotte, and , I think I can venture to affirm, that they have as yet no post in our State. To counterpoise ina small degree, these accumulated evils, a Col. Williams of South Carolina, 3 days after Gates’ defeat, fell in with a party of the enemy, near 96, and gave them a complete drubbing, killed 70 on the spot, and took between 60 and 70 prisoners, mostly British, with the loss of 4 men only; this you may depend on; another favorable incident is, that 150 of the Maryland troops, who were made prisoners on the day of efeat, were retaken on their way to Charles- town, near Santee, and on Sunday fortnight, John Kimbro, and his party, at Masks’ Ferry, were totally routed, 17 of his men killed, and 14 taken prisoners, and 11 of our prisoners re- leased. Gen. Smallwood, by a resolve of our assembly, is requested to take the command of our Militia, he has agreed so to dv. Gen. Sum- mer commands a Brigade. * Our Joss in Gates’ defeat, and Sumpter’s sur- prise, is about 300 killed, and about 600 taken prisoners, including perhaps 50 officers—Baron —Decalb among the former; Gen. Rutherford, Col. Geddy, and Col. Lockhart, among the lat- ter. The enemy lost about 259 killed upon the field, some say a good many more. Here I suppose I may say something respecting the prevailing opinion of our Gemeral’s conduct, not that I mean to pass strictures, or throw unde- served censure on his character, having no pre- tentions to military knowledge myself there are three capital errors generally ascribed to him : first, in not ordeging a place of rendezvous in| case of a defeat; secondly, in not having the. baggage secured, it remaining all the ard i ime ore the re of ‘action ding post to Hillsboro’, 230 miles, | e is indeed execrated by | ‘the Officers, unrevered by the Soldiers, and | Man, and would esteem , could he be re or. ‘eommand int have arrested our attention. | formed that this school of reformers is looking “ of this State ; in short, Offi- | From the New York Hibs PROGRESS OF RADIGAE So long as such sentiments as the -. “aw OllOW Ings freely circulated we may look fo? diso jer te a mischief.

Y..Trébwneee We place in italics the sentiments “whith We are here in- forward to the day as “not distant when every landiess man shall be declared entitled to some portion of the unappropriated soil.” There are millions of acres of such land now’in the Uni- ted States, and a “ Jandless man” can have a an acre of it fur a hundred and twenty-five cts., and as much more as he wish@s‘at'the*same price, but if he will wait till a # fof distant day” he “shall be declared entitled” to a farm.a— This is agrarianism the most radical; “and” if men of sense aud patriotism, who look to’ the" permanence of our institutions, will contemplate ees the tendency of such instructions as the above, they tiad will in them the elements, which now, “ mofe than any other, threaten to work the over: throw of our free government. ‘The govern.’ ment owns a tract of land: it is to be used. or disposed of for the equal benefit of all the por. erned: no one class of men has a right to it more than another, and least of all bas the im?” ported throng of foreigners, not only “ landless’” but coatless, a right to appropriate it tothem-” selves. But if the “ progressive democtacy” * of this new school could tinker the legtelation” _of the country, then the “not distant day” would be here, when “ every landless‘man ” ‘would be made a freeholder, forthwith. Itis in vain that you talk of vested rights, and the faith of states, - or the federal compact. there are some millions . of “landless men” each one of whom must have a farm, and instead of buying it at a fair price, working for it as he ought and paying aa ' equivalent for what he gets, he must be des” clared entitled” to it, and then the “ landless Z man” is a landlord. - This is the first step towards a distribution 1 li land among the landless ; the soil belonging to «' © the whole is to be divided among a few for their, ‘exclusive benefit. The next step will be, of course, to declare every “landless man enti- tled” to a share of the farms nowowned by the , large landholders of this and other states : ons the principles maintained by the Anti-Renters 'and their apologists. ‘The next step will be the ‘ passage of a law which has already been de-_. manded, prohibiting any man from owning more . oe a AG than a certain limited number of acres. ‘ Agrarianism would have done a great work,s ‘progress would be easy to the overthrow of @ our existing institutions, and the introduction of the system proposed by the new school of As-”” sociation. . It is very true that the progress of these radi- cal doctrines has as yet produced no great sen- sation, but when such an idea as we have'eo-— pied above, is industriously and almost daily“ thrust into the public mind, and men of religious™: and conservative sentiments quietly encouragé- its dissemination, and thereby abet its adoption,” ' it is absolutely certain that the work of sapping *” the present social system is going on, steadily 4 and surely.

Ithas become a favorite le ion at Washingtom ah pret “with other. Southern Democratic Is, to necuse the Whig of annlionng core holitionists. ‘osu otiate thi aati the case of Bebb, who has just been elected Whig Governor of Ohio, is very confidently addaced ; he having ad- yocated, it seems, the repeal of what are called the “Black Laws.” Even in this matter these purists in Southern ortho- doxy have forgotten, or take care not to coniess, that the candidate of their own party was equally obnoxious. It appears | that Mr: Tod, whose election would doubt- less have been hailed by all the Democra- cy as a triamph of their principles, in the year 1838. declared, in sabstance, that black children should be equally entitled with white, to attend the public schools —a principle which tends, more directly than any other, to the thorough accom. plishment of that amalgamation which is necessarily and justly odious to the white race, But there are other examples equally forcible, which show that Democracy should remove the beam in its own eye before it seeks to cast out the moat in its brother's. Not forgetting that memorable Abolitionist, Marcus Morton of Massachu- setts. who has always been a dear pet with his party, and was one of the chief actors in that notable assembly known as the Baltimore Convention; we have another ease just as much in point. The Democ- racy 6f New York are ‘running’—as we say of candidates and race horses—Mr. Silas Wright for Governor, and a certain Mr. Addison.Gardner for Lieutenant Go- ernor. This latter gentleman was, in 1838, a candidate for the State Senate, and then responded to certain interroga- tories of the anti-slavery people, in part as follows : “ Rocuester, Oct. 16, 1838. * * & Second Question— ‘Are you in favgr of extending the elec- tive franchise to the colored man, the game as to the white ? “[answer, YES.

RESPECT FOR AGE. There is no more beautiful trait of character in the young, than a respect for the old. There is a fitness, a propriety, in this deferential re- gard, which commends itself to every man, un- less his feelings are brutalized, and he is lack- ing in that delicate quality of mind which can weigh proprieties. We think that on this point, there is @ great and increasing fault in the edu- cation of children. They are not taught to reverence age, as they once were. There is, | to a far greater extent than formerly, a disgust. ing pertness and impudence in boys. Instead, of doffiing his cap, on meeting an old man, and making a respectful salutation, as was the cus- tom ia our boyhood, the urchin of the present day is farimore likely to mock his hobbling gait, or his cracked voice. This laek of respect for superiors generally, and’ partiewlarly for the old, is a fault which is charges) nothing can be expected.

"The First Crime.—We find the following af. fecting story among the late -pulice reports of the New York News : Sarah Houston, a thin featured, pale little girl, with very large blue eyes, pleaded guilty to stealing several dresses from a Mrs. Davis. Her bosom heaved convulsively, as she faintly articulated an affirmative to the usual question, of the clerk, “ Are you guilty or not guilty 7” A sudden flush came over her white cheeks, and those large eyes grew still more lustrous, until at last the fountains were unsealed, a tear started all unbidden from each blue orb, and dropped from the long eye lashes—andther fol- lowed, and instantly another, ’Ull bending *neath the weight of these repentant gems, the dark fringes sank upon her cheek, and the poor girl as a frail lily o’er laden by the shower, that drops to shed the soothing moisture, bowed her face to the rails before her and wept in silent agony—Tears!

Guilt may ‘have tainted their hidden source, yet doth the thought that gives them birth remove the stain, and even when they spring to light for youthful frailities, their crystal flow is pure.

Mr. Le Verrien has discovered a new planet, and announced the fact to the French Academy. | It is beyond the orbit of Uranus. It has also been seen from the National Observatory in Washington. Prof. Olmstead, speaking of this planet, says :— “ Although this body is equal in brightness only to a star of the eighth magnitude, and will therefore never be visible to the naked eye, or | bear any important relations to our world, yet the mode of its discovery, evincing, as it does, the vast reach of mathematical analysis, in penetrating the arcana of nature, renders it one of the proudest triumphs of modern astronomy. | Here is a body thirty-six hundred millions of | miles from us, sending to us the feeble light of | a telescopic star, which is not only recognized | as belonging to our solar system, but its solita- ry dwelling place in the depths of space was shadowed forth to the mathematician in his clo- set, before even the largest telescope had re. vealed its existence.” | MINERALOGICAL WEALTH OF NORTH CAROLINA.

To allow the claim, in this case, of the master, would pacify his being surrendered to any other stranger who might demand him for the purpose of con- cealing him or to take him beyond the reach of his lawtul owner. The Court concluded by or- dering that the slave should be dischargec. The Captain then attempted to take him be. | fore the Mayor, but the mob seized the boy and bore him off, amidst shouts and yells, to Murse’s Observer buildings, the abolition head quarters.

Yesterday, being the day fixed by law, for the biennial meeting of the Legisla- ture of North Carolina, the members of both branches assembled at the Capitol at 2 o’clock, P. M., for the purpose of or- ganization. The sun shone out bright and glorious- ly, the precursor, we trust of the brighten- ed prospects which will gladden the hearts of our people, from the wise and salutary legislation of those they have delegated to correct the abuses of the past, and to devise measures of wisdom for the future. Not only were the Members of both Houses unusually punctual in their attend- ance, but the lobbies and galleries were crammed with spectators. The Senate was called to order by Per- rin Basbee, Esq., Reading Clerk at the last Session, and the Senators were sworn in by William Thompson, Esq, a Justice of the Peace for Wake County—46 Sena- tors answering to their names. The ab- sentees were Messrs. Gilliam, Gilchrist and Howard, (Whigs) and one vacancy (Loco Foco.) After which, Mr. Waddell, of Orange, moved tbat the Senate proceed to the election of a Speaker, and nominated for - D.

King, for the J. R. Dodge, of Surry, was then elected As- sistant Clerk, also without regular opposition. For Principal Doorkeeper, S. J. Finch, was | elected over C. Moore ; and W. R. Lovell, was | elected assistant, without regular opposition. | ‘The House then adjourned. The Whigs of both branches of our Legisla- ture, have thus shown that they know the wish. es of their constituents, and are determined to carry them out. Indeed, they would be recre- ant to every principle of honor and good faith, Carolina, they did not secure a Whig organiza- tion of the Legislature throughout ; and when pointments within the gift of the Legislature. lt is only by preserving the unity of the party, that we can hope to sustain ourselves @s a par- | ty. And surely, when the great States of New York and Pennsylvania, have asked to be ad- | mitted into our ranks, old North Carolina, the | foreinost of the original panel, will show no | signs of backing out. We hope that every man who professes to be a Whig, will show himself | every incha Whig, and disregarding all person. | al considerations, and private impulses, go for | his party on every party question. In this way, | and this only, can we hope to succeed. | From the Washington Union, of the 17th. | CALL FOR TROOPS. | We understand that requisitions have been sent out from the War Department, calling in- | to the service of the United States nine addi- | tional regiments of volunteers to serve during the war with Mexico, unless sooner discharged.

These may be the occasion by the strong impression they have upon the moral, may seriously affect the bodi- ly functions. How few persons are there who consider that the action of these upon the humors is the occasion of them becoming corrupt, or of exciting the principle that occasions their corruption! But soit is. And the application to Brandreth’s Pills under these circumstan- ces will be productive of more benefit than all the nerv- ous remedies in the world. Practical facts prove it. External Pains. People who are affected with* chronic sickness, and those crippled, firmly believe that their painful situation, after a fall or a blow received, or a bad wound, og after having strained themselves, is only and simply the result of the action of these external causes. Let me tell these people that the majority of these cases would have been cured had they resorted to Brandreth’s Pills. In proof of this, we find a number of persons injured, much in the same manner; the same applications cu-ed some, | while others receive no benefit. These. latter had that . within themselves, which being roused into action by the accident, aggravated the cause of their'sufferings. By ' purging with Brandreth’s Pills their bodies will be placed upon a par with those whose tiumors were in acbetter condition. {Nov. 20+-30:4t =. 9.00). yuo (C> ‘These Pills are for sale-at9 | agents in rin Aen be the Statevand highly. table gentlemen in thigg nan inbory David: Piston »* | 22d, 23d, and 24th days of December, 1846, | | given constant emyloyment to from 40 to 50 hands.— | | er convenient buildings for the uses of said Mine. | sold at the same“time and place, $600 or $700 worth of | | vidson Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions, 1846, | It is | purpose of securing certain de®&s therein specified, on | Salisbury, Oct. 1846—25:6t Tuesday.

"Especially should we be on our guard in.times of temptation. It was sage ad- vice given to Casar by an old Roman, not to: speak or act when he was angry, until he hadrepeated the letters of the alpha- bet. At such seasons should we “keep | our.mouth as with a bridle ;” and in most sg, no check will be more prompt and éffectual than the question put to our con- science, What is my motive for speaking ? Is it to beavenged? Then itisa hateful one, and I ought to hate myself on account of it, and repent. circle around me with a tale of scandal ? | Then 1 expose my own depravity, and have much more reason to speak evil of myself, than of him whom | am about to vilify.

Now is it posst- ble for such a wretch as lam to find par- | don? | And how lar ge a proportion of the slan- | ders of .the world concerning the church, | are the offspring of malignity against the | truth! Wow careful then should they be, who love the truth, “to keep the door of their lips” so vigilantly as to cut off all occasion of reproach from those who de- sire and seek it! In conclusion, let us prize more and more highly that abounding grace which is able to cleanse even the polluted heart of man, and render it pure and holy a Such are the power,.the promise, and the effect of the Gospel. In the incarnation and sufferings of Christ we have ample r away the guilt of e Spirit, an in- atonement made to take sin; and in the gift of th fluence which is able to separate Us from its defilement. Here is provision made for the two-fold work of our pardon and sanetification. By this every corrupt pas- sion and unhallowed desire may be erad- icated, and this depraved creature restor- ed to the image of God.

But if he Will not hear thee,” then, as a matter of solemn duty, not-of pique, ‘tell it to the church,” the tribunal ordained by Christ te correct it. In connection with this, we offer anoth- er remark, by way of caution, against an infirmity of many, who, by reporting in your ears the ill natured speeches of oth- ers, often do youa greater unkindness than they did by inevcuting them. For while, in some few cases, the information may serve a valuable end, by putting you on your guard; yet, in far more, it ope- rates only to wound, without doing you any possible good: and it is proof of no ordinary grace in cxercise, if, after hear- ing the tale of such a slunderer, and of such a talebearer, you do not think far less favorably of them loth. But what dissuasive from this sin should have such an abiding influence over a pro- fessor of religion, as the precepts and ev- amples of our blessed Redeemer? Of all beings in .he universe, who was ever slan- dered so cruelly and so causelessly? Yet “when he was reviled, he reviled not again.” When his enemies called for curses on him, he sought for blessings to come down on them. And are you a_ professed disci- ple of such a Master, with what conisten- cy, then, can you retain your name or your relation, if, when the language of jave to his enemics was on his lips, “ the poison of asps” is so often under yours? Remember, moreover, how repugnant is‘your conduct to his “ golden rule.” Put yourself, calumniator, in the place of your injared: brother, and imagine the tale to be told’of yourself, which you are now telling of him. Would you think it kind, orchristian? Imagine that itis your own father, or mother. or brother, or sister, who is the subject of the slanderous story which you are reporting ; and how do you view your conduct then? Do not forget, that reputation, peace of mind, and do- mestic happiness, are as dear toothers as they are to you. Their sense of mortifi- cation and of ridicule is as keen, and their sensibilities no better fitted to endure the huffeting of public scorn. . ain, would you be spared a thorney or your death-bed, begin in due sea- “govern your tongue. “ Whoso eth his mouth and his tongue, keep- eth his soul from troubles.” And what great trouble in life, and how much great- er in death, can in this way be prevented !

If this is your besetting sin, be persuaded either to restrain and bring it into sub- jection at once, or renounce your Chris- tian hope. Indulging it, your religion is only seeming. To retain a sarcastic, bit- ter, reviling. slanderous tongue, is as in- consistent with your professed hope in Christ, as is drunkenness, or blasphemy, or murder. Are you connected with an unbelieving husband or wife, or are you a member of an unbelieving household? be assured that your ungoverned tongue is doing more to quiet them in sin, to vilify the church and her ordinances, and all things sacred, than can be effected by any efforts of open blasphemers.

It docs not blaze abroad their sins, but it covers them. It weeps over them, prays over them, endeavors to “ convert the sinner from the error of his way,” and to save him. As you would honor Christ, who has taught us this lesson of divine charity, “Jet this mind bein you that was in him :” be moved by the same benevolent spirit, and “let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt.” “If any man offend not in word, the same is a perfect man, and able also to bridle the whole body.” The Cholera.—A London letter publish- ed in the N.

Surprising as this may appear. there scems to he a deficit of nearly an e- | qual amount, in the payment of the Poll tax. The Tabular Statement of the Comp- troller, before referred to, exhibits for tax- ation the next year 62,795 black, and 54.- 226 white Polls, including all of which there is any account, both listed and un- listed. The Slave population of the State according to the Census of 1840, number- ed 245,817. All of these, between the- ages of 12 and 50, are subject to taxation; and by estimates from reliable sources, this regulation renders taxable rather more than one-half on each plantation.— A full enumeration, therefore, of taxable Blacks, ought to embrace about 125,000. Of Whites, all males are taxable between the ages of 21 and 45 years. There are found on our Muster Rolls, the names _ of 76,568 men, comprehending those be- tween the ages of 18 and 45 generally, “but not including numerous exempts un- der various Statutes.

Our Poll tax has been gradually increasing for the last | few years, and, for the past year, appears | to have been collected on 164,464 persons. That it has been negligently attended to, is manifest from variances of from four to | five hundred dollars, per annum, some-— further to secure the State against loss, as | times on one side and sometimes on the other of the account, in the amounts col- | lected during the last four years. It is, therefore, an imperative duty of the Le- gislature, as well, in justice to those cili- | zens whose Lands and Polls are fairly as- sessed and enlisted, and who are contri- buting accordingly into the Public Trea- sury, as to the State itself, to require a new assessment of Lands and improve- ‘ments, to be justly made, on inspection of the premises if’ necessary, and to provide for an accurate and full Census of all tax- able persons. No valuation of Lands can continue to bea just criterion of worth for any considerable period, and a re-assess- | ment should be provided for, once at least in five years if it be notannual. By adop- ting these measures of fairness and justice, to collect what is now imposed, without ' any increase of taxes, it may be reasona- | bly expected that the Pablic Revenue from | present sources, now equal to about $86,- | 000, may be raised to $100,000, per an- | num. These regulations should be made | to take effect immediately, that the Trea- sury may experience their benefit in the course of the next year. Further to augment the Revenue, it is proposed that a tax be imposed on Plea- sure Carriages, and Gold Watches kept. for use, and, if deemed expedient on any other articles of luxury, to go into opera- tion at once, and continue in force until the expiration of the next Session of the. General Assembly.

This valua- tion, however, isobviously defective, since it falls two and a half millions of dollars below that of 1815, although more thana million and a half of acres had been pat- ented in the mean time. It is reasonably estimated, that with an area of 50.000 square miles within our boundaries, there are 45,000 square miles, or near twenty- nine millions of acres of territory inhabit- ed. Making the utmost allowance for lands not yet granted, it can hardly be possible that less than twenty-five millions of acres are chargeable with taxes.

We earnestly ask the continued confidence and support of alktrue minds in the country. EnGravincs.—There will be four engravings each year, carefully executed ; and what is of more impor- tance, accompanied with ample biographies, that may stand as a part of the history of the country. More em- bellishments may be given, if the intrinsic value of the Review can thereby be enhanced. Trerms.—The Review will continue to be published at Five Dollars, in advance; Three copies, however, | will be afforded at twelve dollars ; Five for twenty dol- | lars ; so that Committees, Sucieties, Clubs, &c., can ob- tain them ata more liberal rate. : 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.

It will now devolve on you, to give directions for the future dispo- sal of it.

But if no appropriation be made for its improvement, let it be disposed of to a Com. pany, or individual, with some stipulation on the part*ot’ the purchaser, to keep it in order ~: for Navigation, and to allow its use to the pub- ~ fie for fair compensation. A Canal from Lumber River to Cape Fear River, has long been in contemplation by the people in that quarter, and its obvious advanta- ges, from an inspection of the map, ought to ensure for it at-least a liberal Act of Incorpora- » “tion. = More than thirty years ago, Companies were ineorporated forthe inprovemment of the Naviga. | tion of all the Jarger Rivers of the State, and . aw Engineer was employed, for a considerable time, in making Surveys, preparatory to a gen- ral system of Internal improvement. Owing fo causes not necessary to be now reviewed, scarcely any of the works then contemplated were completed, and all these chartered Com. panies, except in the instances of Roanoke and Cape Fear, have lost their privileges by non- user. Of late, a disposiiiun has been manites. | * ted by the people of those sections, to re-attempt | Ape Navigation of Neuse and Yadkin Rivers. | .

It is s wwe ertained, that there is no great impedi- = wament fo the Navigation of the Yadkin River i our limits, above the narrows. The Og of that River, therefore, from Wilkes- ¢ eh to its intersection with the proposed Farmpike from Raleigh and Fayetteville, west- ward, and the completion of said Road, are works of great public importance, in which, if State will not embark on her own account -, thy, ehe should not hesitate to second the & a otic efforts of the citizen. The Survey of 8 for this Turnpike Road, according to tien of the last General Assembly, has heen completed, and the report of the Engineer may be etpected at an early day. .

In consideration of which, the State became re-invested with title and possession of the lands surrendered as belore | stated. Asa full year was to elapse between the time when the State’s agent was put in pos. session of these lands, and the rise of the Le. Sielature, it was considered best for the public | interest, as well as for the persons surrendering that they should be restored to the possession of the lands as tenants of the State. The agent of Cherukee Lands was, therefore, instructed | to class the several tracts and their improve- ments for twelve months, taking care to give a preference to the late owners, and requiring only moderate amounts for the rent, but with a stipulation for returning the premises in as good repair as they were in at that time. ‘Phis was attended to by the agent and the bonds for rent | are in his hands. will submit their report of operations It will be an important part of your present last two years. duties, to direct a further disposition of these lands, which have again become the property of the State. ‘They were sold in 1836 and 1838, on credit (as to the greatest part of the purchase money) and at high prices. The purchasers being unable to pay their bonds as they became due, petitioned the Legislature for relief. Hence the act of the last Session, allowing a re-scis- sion of the bargain, by a surrender of the Jand and relinquishment of all claim to purchase money theretofure paid on the one side, and a cancellation of the bonds on the other, in all cases where it should be ascertained, that the purchaser could not discharge the debt himself without calling on his sureties as provided in sald act. be furnished with a copy of the Ist. the Revised Statutes. sumed, | Resolution. be required. ed as brief, simple and intelligible cS And it will doubtless be an agreeable part your duty, to examine the progress made by mental education, as well as in some of the useful arts. been in contemplation by the Board, and was at one time resolved upon.

In the month of May last, I received from the War Dera;iment a requisition of the Pres- ident of .pe United States for one Regi- ment of Volunteer Infantry, to be enrolled and eid in readiness to aid in the prosecution of the existing war with the Republic of Mexi- co. A general order was immediately issued, calling for Volunteers by Companies, and witb a most commendable promptitude, more than three times the number required tendered their service. From these, ten Companics were | drawn by lot, to farm the Regiment. In the absence of any law of the State, relative to the raising and organizing such a force, the duty | | School Fund.

William H. Hay- | wood, Jr., one of the members of that body from this State. A day having then been fixed for the adjournment of Congress, and near at hand, I didnot exercise the Constitutional power of the Executive, to appoint a successor. ‘The term, for which the Hon. Willie P. Mangum, the oth- ‘ey Senator from North Carolina, was elected will expire on the 4th of March next. It will | devolve on you, therefore to fill both vacancies. It is, also, well worthy of your consideration, | whether the existing arrangement of Districts for the election of Members to the House of Rep- resentatives, is accommodated to the public con- venience, in uniting those of contiguous terri- | tory and similarity of interests, or accords with the fundamental principle of a Republic, that a majority of the People should be allowed to ‘elect their own Representatives. | Since the last adjournment of the Legislature, such | changes have been wrought in our National Affairs, as to require a brief observation. The United States have | become engaged in War with a neighboring Republic, ‘weaker and inferior in all the elements of National | greatness, but still not a contemptible foe. While we | fervently unite in the desire, that our Country, in her in- | tercourse with foreign nations, ‘“‘ may be always in the | right,” and readily render our loyalty and duty to make | her always successful, “ right or, wrong,” it is alien to | the character of Freemen, to forbear enquiry into the "necessity which demands a resort to the last alternative ' of Nations, or into the conduct of the agents by whom | it has been produced. By an essential provision of our : Constitution, all questions of War are, in the first in- etance, to be subjected to the will of the Nation itself, i which is to pay its costs and feel its calamities. That Mexico had relinquished her right to take umbrage at | the annexation of Texas, by her conditional recognition | of the independence of that Republic, and the dip!oma- tic intrigues connected therewith ; that the characteris- tic obstinacy of their race, and the exasperation of feel- ing from the loss of so valuable a territory, might have | ultimately led to a War, may be admitted. Our Con- gress, however, carefully endeavored to remove all cause | of hostility on such account, by acknowledging a dispu- | ted. boundary between Texas and Mexico, in the very act of Annexation, and giving assurance of liberal t ¥ in its adjustment.

PLANTING CHESNUTS. | The rapid growth of the chesnut, the excellence of its timber, and its fine orna- mental appearance, render it a desirable object of cultivation. The fruit which it produces, too, is not the least considera- tion. Many, however, who attempt raising the trees, partially or wholly fail in caus- ing the seed to germinate. This is usu- ally owing to the seed becoming dry be- fore they are planted. A few days expo- sure to dry air is sufficient to prevent their | growing. Hence, as soon as they are ta- ken from the tree, they should be at once planted before drying a day, or mixed with moist sand, and kept in that condition till planted. They should not be covered more than an inch and a half deep if the soil is heavy. nor-more than two inches if it ‘is light ; But a little better way 1s to plant thenr half that ‘depth, and then spread on Jt had been proposed to the Executivéy| a thi covering—say one inch, of peat, or ‘through a committee of citizens,to raise leaves, which will keep the surface | foreign loan of $20,000,000-to carry.on the : wg Pk and thusiescaped.destruc- | m ben i ee sing Legislature may provider If tion.

Ob, how deli- cious to feel, to know the triumph of suc- cessful flirtation—to have one wholly yours while you are free and untrammelled to think, to act, nay, even to command, for your will is their law.

Around us lay the farms and lovly vallies of Carolina ; while beyond towered in native grandieur, her | lofiy and majestic mountains, A scene so lovely | and so sublime never rose under the touch of the artist, or dawned upon the imagination of a poet. We could all have exclaimed in our ec- stacy, Oh! if there be an Elysium on earth, It is this! it is this! The day was more delightful than I can find words to describe it. I never saw together so many sparkling eyes and smiling happy faces. There was not a shade of care on any brow. We returned at sun-set. We marched into the | village in procession under a gay canopy of | handkerchiefs and shawls which had been sud- denly converted into waving flags ; and before | parting we gave three hearty cheers to the pros- perity of Caldwell county, three to Gen. Taylor, d three times three to the ladies. Permit me in conclusion, Messrs.

WARNING. Mr. Spruil of Weldon, N.

During this time they placed theif pantaloons one night on the stairs with the pockets turned inside out. In the morn- ing they alledged they had been robbed of 28 dollars. Search was instituted, but with no success, for the money. On the 11th instant, a gentleman arrived at Wel- don from Richmond, and recognised the two persons as having been tried in that city for entering rooms with false keys. On being arraigned they confessed that they had been so tried, and that the ob- them the amount of the pretended loss.— Mr. Spruil thus describes these individ- uals. é+ | sent into the. office within the last few months, a | rangements have been made to add greatly to the mer- | this: Review, on the part-of the Whig party, and of the ject in putting their-pantaloons on the | stairway was to make Mr. Spruil pay to, cork home bya the numerous new subscribers whose names 1 rc bave ordered the back yolumes.

You will recognise in the names under- signed, friends of the olden and _ better time, all federalists, and many of them prominent and active in the support of that party. Born and educated in the princi- ples and sentiments of Federalism, we are proud to proclaim our undiminished fidel- ity to its tenets and measures. With these feelings, we beg leave to call your atten- | tion to the favorable opportunity now af. | forded for a reunion of all the elements of. our persecuted party, and to invite your | aid in the accomplishment of a consum- | mation which has for many years been | the object of our ambition.

We have made the central power, by the use of of- ficial influence, supreme: and have so used the veto power, as to make the will of the people of their Representatives, a i;mere shadow.

Previous to our at- tact, she was paraded before the troops, and greatly excited and angmented their courage.

SPECULATIONS OF THE M WAR. Correspondence of the N. Y. Journal of Commerce. , re! da ICAN Wasnrxcton, Nov. 26. Gen. Scott said, a while ago, that he never would be called upon for active service in the Mexican war until the government found itself in astrait. The government zs in a strait and Gen. Scott has been called upon for aid. the opinion of military men, and among others of Gen. Taylor himself, that the whole of the Monterey demonstration, from beginning to end, was wrong; that no benefit, corresponding with its costs in liie and treasure, has been ob- tained; that the original design of pushing Gen. Taylor forward to San Louis, by this route, was utterly absurd; that Gen. Taylor, never had either the force or the supplies neces- sary fur such an enterprise ; that it has been a- bandoned at the suggestion of Gen. Paylor, and that an entirely new plan of war has been or must be adopted. Gen. ‘Taylor, before he marched from Mata- moras, told Major Forsyth that he did not know what was the object of the movement he was ordered to make, and that, if the design was to go to San Luis or the city of Mexico, Tampico was the point from which the movement should be made. ' Gen. Taylor, bas, no doubt, expr same opinions in his correspondence with the government. Afteralong pause, therefore, the "government has adopted what the Union prop- erly called a ‘new organization,’ anda different plan of operations, and has been compelled to ask the aid of Gen. Scott. In regard to the Mexican war, it has not yet been made known, nor in any way appeared, what is its true object. We are left to believe that the administration have no definite object, any more than a mature plan for effecting it. A portion of the Western and Southern peo- ple consider the object to be the territorial ac- uisition—conquest—and approve of it. Some of the Southern politicians view it as a means of extending Southern territory and influence, and restoring to them the sceptre of federal do- Minion. ‘The terms upon which this government is prepared to make peace, are entirely a matter of conjecture, and are probably yet to be deci- ‘dedupon. But ifthe Mexican Congress, woich is now about to assemble, shows a disposition to meet our proposals, which are to be submit- ted to it, it must follow that this government will be bound to enter into a treaty upon equitable terms, instead of demanding half of their terri- tury. sed the ss Ve like the spirit of frankness and indepen- dence which characterize the annexed para- oO eS pers published in the city of Richmond : raph, copied from one of the Democratic pa- From the Richmond Standard of Tuesday. “Santa Anna.—Tie country is demanding to know how it was that this distinguished chief passed the American blockade and got into Mexico.

It was hoped that these outrages would cease, and that Mexico would be restrain- ed by the laws which regulate the con- duct of civilized nations in their inter- | course with each other after the treaty of | amity, commerce, and navigation of the | 5th of April, 1831, was concluded be- | tween the two republics; but this hope | soon proved to be vain. The course of ' seizure and confiscation of the property of ‘our citizens; the violation of their per- sons and the insults to our flag pursued by | Mexico, previous tothat time, were scarce- ly suspended for even a brief period al- | though the treaty so clearly defines the _rights and duties of the respective parties | that it is impossible to misunderstand or | mistake them. In less than seven years after the conclusion of that treaty our grievances had become sointolerable that, in the opinion of President Jackson, they | should no longer be endured. sage to Congress in February, 1837, he | presented them to the consideration of that ‘body, and declared that “The length of time since some of the injuries have been committed, the repeated and unavailing applications for redress, the wanton char- acter of some of the outrages upon the property and persons of our citizens, upon the officers and flag of the United States, independent of recent insults to this gov- ernment and people by the late extraor- | iter ;” and that “ for not one of our public: complaints has satisfaction been given or dinary Mexican Minister, would justify in the eyes of all nations immediate war.” In a spirit of kindness and forbearanee, however, he recommended reprisals as a | milder mode of redress. He declared that | war should not be used as a remedy “ by | just and generous nations confiding in their strength for injuries committed, if it can be honorably avoided,” and added, “it has occurred to me that, considering the present embarrassed condition of that country, we should act with both wisdom and moderation, by giving to Mexico one more opportunity to atone for the past, be- fore we take redress into our own hands. To avoid all misconception on the part of Mexico, as well as to protect our own na- tional character from reproach, this op- portunity should be given with the avow- ed design and full preparation to take im- mediate satisfaction, if it should not be obtained on a repetition of the demand for it.

Legislative departments concurred ; and yet such has been our forbearance, and the wrongs of which we then complained, and which gave rise to these solemn pro- ceedings, not only remain unredressed to this day, but additional causes of com- plaint. of an aggravated character, have ever since been accumulating. Shortly after these proceedings, a spe- cial méssenger was despatched to Mexi- co, te make a final demand for redress; and on the 20th of July, 1837, the demand was made. The reply of the Mexican government bears date on the 29th of the the “ anxious wish” of the Mexican gov- ernment “ not to delay the moment of that final and equitable adjustment which is to terminate the existing difficulties be- tween the two governments;” that “ no- thing should be lett undone which may contribute to the most speedy and equita- ble determination of the subjects, which have so seriously engaged the’ attention in its place st despotic Centr.

While the citizens of the United States were con- ducting a lawful commerce with Mexico under the guaranty of a treaty of “ amity, commerce, and navigation,” many of them have suffered all the injuries which would have resulted from open war. This treaty instead of affording protection to our citi- zens, has been the means of inviting them into the ports of Mexico that they might be, as they have been in numerous instan- ces, plundered of their property and de- prived of their personal liberty if they dared insist on their rights. Had the un- lawful seizures of American property, and the violation of personal liberty of our cit- izens, to say nothing of the insults to our flag which have occurred in the ports of Mexico. taken place on the high seas, they would themselves long since have consti- tuted a state of actual war between the two countries. In so long suffering Mex- ico to violate her most solemn treaty ob- _ligations,plunder our citizens of their prop- ‘erty, and imprison their persons without affording them any redress, we have fail- { { } | | upon each cause of complaint, for which redress had been demanded, should be communicated to the government of the United States by the Mexican minister at Washington. These solemn assurances, in answer to our demand for redress, were disregarded. In his mes- | By making them, however, Mexico ob- tained further delay. President Van Bu- ren, in his annual message to Congress of the fifth of December, 1837, states, that “although the larger number” of our de- 'mands for redress, and “many of them aggravated cases of personal wrongs, have been now for years before the Mex- ican government, and some of the causes of national complaint, and those of the most offensive character, admitted of im- mediate, simple, and satisfactory replies, it is only within a few days past that any specific communication in answer to our last demand, made five months ago, has been received from the Mexican minis- had not time to decide before their final adjournment. The sum of two million twenty-six thou- sand one hondred and thirty-nine dollars and sixty-eight cents which had been a- warded to the claimants, was a liquid- ated and ascertained debt due by Mexico, about which there could be no dispute, and which she was bound to pay accord- ing to the terms of the convention. Soon after the final awards for this amount had been made, the Mexican government ask- ed for a postponement of the time of ma- king payment, alleging that it would be inconvenient to make the payment at the time stipulated. Ja the spirit of forbear- ing kindness towaads a sister republic, which Mexico has so long abused, the U- nited States promptly complied with her request. A second convention was accor- dingly concluded between the two gov- ernments on the thirtieth of January. 1843, which upon its face declares, that “this new arrangement is entered into for the accomodation of Mexico.” By the ed to perform one of the first and highest formal declaration. that their.“ politic connexion with the Mexican nation forever ended, and that the people ef“ as do now constitute a FR INDEPENDENT REPUBLIC, and ted with all the rights and attributes properly belong to inde tn They also adopted for their hep rua liberal republican constitation.” About the same time Santa Anna, themthé dice © tator of Mexico, invaded Texas with a nas merous army for the purpose of sabdi her people, and enforcing obedience to. his arbitrary and despotic government:— On the twenty-first of April, 1636, he was met by the Texan citizen-soldiers; and on that day was achieved by them? the mem- orable victory of San Jacinto; by which | they conquered their independence. Con- | sidering the numbers engaged on the re- | Spective sides, history does not record a ‘more brilliant achievement.

We had ample cause of war agaiust Mexico long before the breaking out of hostilities. But even then we forebore to take redress into our own hands, until Mexico herself became the aggressor by invading our soil in hostile array and shedding the blood of our citi- zens, Such are the grave causes of complaint on the part of the United States against Mexico—causes which existed long be- fore the annexation of Texas to the Amer- can Union; and yet, animated by the love of peace, and a magnanimous moderation | we did not adopt those measures of re- dress which, under such circumstances, are the justified resort of injured nations. _In the language of the Secretary of State of the | United States, in a despatch to our minister. |in Mexico, under date of the eighth of July, | 1842, “* Mexico may have chosen to consider, , and may still choose to consider Texas as hav. ing been at all times since 1835, and as still | continuing, a rebellivus province ;. but the world | has been obliged totakea very different view of | the matter.

That this may be the more manifest, it may be prop- er to advert to the causes and to the his- tory of the principal events of that revolu- tion.

That such measures of redress under similar provocations, com- mitted by any of the powerful nations of Europe, would have been promptly resort- «ed to by the U.

ATE FROM TAMPICO—LOSS OF Mebane SPORT STEAMER The New Orleans Bulletin has accounts from'Tampico to the 28th ultimo, received by the sloop-of-war St. Marys. The steamer Neptune arrived at Tam- pico on Sunday, 22d November, with 450 regular troops, under the command of Col. Gates, and the steamer Sea, with*200 more troops, on the 23d, when the town was formally handed over to the army. Fort Andonego was immediate garrisoned, un- der the name of Fort Conner, and armed with two long 18-pounders. A battery of two 42-pounder carronades, called Fort Ann, in honor of Mrs. Chase, lady of the late American Consul at Tampico, com- mands the Altimira road. Besides these, some field pieces are mounted on the house-tops. The Neptune sailed from Tampico on the 24th ultimo, and, encoun- tering a heavy norther, was driven back and wrecked on the bar ; all hands saved ; the vessel a total loss. The town of Tampico is already in a good state of defence, and reinforcentents are arriving daily. Saltillo had been a- bandoned, and there is no doubt that it is now in possession of the advance guard of the army under Gen. Worth. The state of Mexico is represented to be even worse thanever. Santa Anna late- ly made an address to his troops, appa- rently to extract from them an invitation td instal himself at the head of the Gov- ernment. He was disappointed, however, at finding that his oration was received in profound silence, and he immediately af- terwards started with all his cavalry ona secret expedition, some think to cut off one of the divisions of our army—which he will not be likely to find. The most pro- bable conjecture is, that he is gone to Mex- ico to control the action of the new Con- gress. We also learn that the steamer Spitfire, Capt. Tatnall, had gone up the Panuco river, and taken possession of two towns, in one of which, about sixty miles from Tampico, he took ten large cannon and a nd his troops were ordered from Corpus bristi to the left bank of the Rio Grande.” , President understanding the grave, charge implied in this remark, and con- scious of the necessity of explaining an so aggressive in its character satis- torily, fails in so doing. He says that had heard rumours of hostile move- ments, of warlike proclamations, &c., hich proved to be fabulous, or were the mere patriotic explosions of Paredes’ ad- ents, signifying nothing, to justify him marching the troops to the Rio Grande nd blockading Matamoros. a fact not al- aded to inhis Message.

A people ered but yesterday could have no friendly feeling for their conquerers, who have taken possession of their country, changed its Jaws, and ap- pointed new officers, principally foreign- ers. Yet,such is their cunning and hy- pocrisy that they partially imposed on Gen. Kearney up to the very day of his depart- ure; but there are so many troops here now that their good or bad feeling is a matter of perfect indifference.

If thisis the case, star- vation will be the inevitable consequence. No provisions can be had here. We have not ten days’ provisions at present. To day (the 1st December) the new “Free Trade” Tariff goes into operation. If we are to credit the Free Traders, we are to see our farmers and our merchants grow wealthy more rapidly than ever. For a long time we have been told that the Tariffof 1846 (now just com- mencing its work) has made the farmer richer by exten- ding his markets where he sells, and by opening markets of his neighbors, who make manufactured goods such as he wants. The effect of the Tariff upon the articles he buys we shall not examine here, but we shall look a lit- tle at these famous stories about extending markets, im- proved prices, &c. The following table shows the price of certain arti- cles upon the day the Tariffof 1846 goes into operation, and the prices the same articles sold for one year ago, under the “ High Tarif” of 1842: Black Tariff prices.

If the war should be continued until the thirtieth of June, 1848—being the end of the next fiseal year—it is estimated that an addi- ional loan of twenty-three millions of dol- ars will be required. This estimate is made upon the assumption that it will be necessary to retain constantly in the trea- sury four millions of dollars, to guard a- gainst contingencies. If such surplus were not required to be retained, then a Joan of nineteen millions of dollars would be sufficient. Ii. however, Congress should duty on the principal articles now em- braced in the free list. it is estimated that an additional annual revenue of about two millions and a half, amounting. it is esti- mated on the thirtieth of June, 1848, to foor millions of dollars, would be derived from that source; and the loan required would be reduced by that amount. !: is timated, also, that should Congress grad- uate and reduce the price of such of the pudliclands ashave been longin the mark- the additional revenue derived from that source would be annually, for sever- alyears to come, between half a million anda million of dollars: and the loan re- a: ew e s 2 a to. Should these measures be adopted, ¢ loan required would not probably ex- ed eighteen or nineteen millions of dol- ts—leaving in the treasury a constant plus of four millions of dollars. The lan proposed, it is estimated, will be suf- t to cover the necessary expendi- tures, both for the war and for all other Purposes, up tothe thirtieth of June, 1848; €Man amount of this loan, not exceeding ehalf, may be required during the pres- al year, and the greater part of temainder during the first half of the year succeeding.

The balance in the treasury on the first But for the war, the whole public debt could and would have been extinguished within a short period and it was a part of my settled policy to do so, and ‘thus re- lieve the people from its burden, and place the government in a position which would enable it to reduce the public expendi- tures to that economical standard which. is most consistent with the general wel- fare, and the pure and wholesome pro- gress of our institutions. Among our just causes of complaint a- gainst Mexico, arising out of her refusal to treat for peace as well before as since the war so unjustly commenced on her part, are the extraordinary expenditures in which we have been involved. Jus- tice to our own people will make it prop- er that Mexico should be held responsi- ble for these expenditures, | Economy in the public expenditures is at all times a high duty which all public functionaries of the government owe to the people. This duty becomes the more business, giving evidence of great ingenui- ty and skill, and of their ability to com- | pete, with increased prospect of success 'for the open market of the world. Do- | mestic manufactures, to the value of sev- to foreign countries. and extraordinary expenditures become unavoidable. During the existence of the war with Mexico all our resources should be husbanded, and noappropriations made except such as are absolutely necessary for its vigorous prosecution and the due administration of the government. Ob- jects of appropriation, which in peace may be deemed useful or proper, but which are not indispensable for the public ser- vice, may, when the country is engaged in a foreign war, be well postponed toa ‘the manufacturers still enjoy result neces- sarily from the collection of revenue for the support of government.

There are, however, defects in the details of the measure, developed b its practical operation, which are fully / set forth in the report of the Secretary of 'the Treasury, to which the attention of | Congress is invited.

SENATOR BENTON. “Independent’—the Washington cor- respondent of the Philadelphia North A- merican—in alluding tothe statement pro- | mulgated through the Locofoco prints, | that Col. Benton is to assume the leader- ship fur the Administration in the Senate, BB says: “Since it (the Administration) came into power he has stood purposely aloof, and given it no more countenance or co- operation than his political associations demanded. It is not, therefore, probable that now, when half of its limited exist- ence has expired, and when the strongest declarations of public opinion have been | ) BM expressed against it from all quarters of the country, he should identify himself with its falling fortunes. There isan end to all conjectures, however, on this sub- ject, for Col. Benton has very unreserved- ly scouted at the idea. He feels his own dignity and consequence too much to take the responsibility of the acts of the small men who compose this administration, from its head to its foot.” The same writer makes the following development of a scheme, which he justly tensures as being intended to supercede both Taylor and Scott, for the advantages of a party leader : “Itis designed then to apply to Con- gress for the creation of an office of Lieut.

We do not know that we ever heard a more effective Speech. Every word that issued from his lips, seemed like the bat- ‘met of his fue, and striking bim to the earth. It was not the bubbling and gurg- ling of empty declamation, but the mighty rushing of a thinking and logical mind— deep, origin and intellectual—where eve- ry sentence was an argument, and every argument excited a feeling corresponding to the thought. Sometimes, it resembled the tramp of a trooper, crushing the young forest beneath his courser’s feet—at oth- ers, the boiling torrent, tambling moun- tains of error into the abyss of sophistry— and, then again, it resembled the dignified | Chieftain in his battle career, leading on his legions to sweep an enemy to destruc- | tion. Such was the effect of his eloquence, | that it seemed as if we heard the battle- axe—one argument backing another, in rapid succession, until, like piling Pelion upon Ossa, they crushed and overwhelm- ed his antagonists. The most exciting portion of his Speech, however, was his reply to, and castiga- tion of, Mr, Flemming, of Yancy, who had, in his Speech, on the Saturday pre- ceding, been very offensive in his remarks towards Mr. Rayner, personally. The en- counter was expected, and the House was /a scene of anxious curiosity. The mem- bers sat in mute expectation—the “checks | and balances,” which govern the inter- course between the Doorkeepers and the honorable Representatives, were lost sight of—the Clerk, endorsing a Petition, stuck in the middle, andj paused at Petit—while the Lobby members obtruded their un- hallowed persons into the very midst of the great Sanhedrim of Law-makers.— The suspense was, at length, terminated —it was the calm before the hurricane. At once, the deep pathos of the Speaker rivetted attention, and enlisted every eye. It was then, that taking off the slips from -his mind, and unmasking the. archery of ridicule, he poured in upon “the member ‘from Yancy,” a raking fire, against which the buckler of self-conceit, and the breast- work of arrogance, were not proof. The arrows pierced in every direction. His /eye seemed to search out every opening ‘in the panoply of his antagonist, and 'where it discovered one, “Through that penetrable part, “Furious, he drove the well-directed dart.” | | It was, in truth, the triumph of Satire. | The wounds inflicted were severe, but /time may level the furrows, and restore ' the smooth surface.—Ral.

He has doubtless good reasons for entertaining this expectation. The message, in fine, gives us the cheering prospect of a speedy peace.”— There ought to be no mistake upon this ques- tion. An error at this point may extend its mis- chievous influence to Mexico. However much we may desire peace, there is no certainty of it. We risk little in saying that the PresipENnT has no posilive private “ good reasons” for expect. ing peace, however much he may prefer it.— His own message shows that he is in favor of the most vigorous prosecution of the war; and no considerate man can expect peace, if we re- lax our exertions in the slightest degree. In Times or War the Executive department of the Government becomes more presumptu- ous, and its minions and flatterers more arro- gant in their demands. They more boldly act on the principle that “the King” can do no wrong, and require blind unconditional support of the measures of the Administration. ‘Those who live at the foot of the throne are ever ready to denounce those who will canvass freely the acts of the Executive, and express their opin- ions as becomes citizens of a free country.— They are ready to assume that a disapproval of the acts of the President is an indication of a want of patriotism. This spirit of servility and subserviency toan Executive power, if carried out, would soon destroy the liberty of speech and the press, and render Congress the tool of the President. The people of this country will not recognise the principle that the President is the Government, nor will they admit that an approval of his acts is the test of patriotism.— The people will, with one voice, sustain war against Mexico, and urge it to a successful con- clusion ; but, as freemen, they entertain and ex. press their opinions as to the propriety of all the acts of the Government. The Executive adherents make up a false issue when they un- Era. From the Wilmington Chronicle—Lxtra. Fripay, Dec. 18, 12 o’clock, M. The Steamer Gludiator, Captain Smith, which left here yesterday for Charleston, but without proceeding any farther than the main bar, has just returned with the Steamer Vanderbilt in tow. From Capt. Potter of the Vanderbilt we learn the fol- lowing particulars : The V. came out of Charleston at her usual hour on Wednesday, about 3 P. M. At 10, off Georgetown, the wind which | had been blowing for some time in heavy | gusts, set into a furious gale, from the Sicys!—-The Washington correspon- East, accompanied with some rain. At_ ‘dent of the New York Journal of Com. , about’ 11 the Steamer was thrown up- ;on her beam-ends. After awhile she | righted, not having been essentially dam- -aged. At 2 on Thursday morning she | was again thrown on her beam-ends, her _radder carried away, both wheel houses /nearly demolished, one of her masts bro- | ken off close to the deck, the Mail apart- /ment broken up, and all the Mails from the South taken in at Charleston, together with the Charleston Mail, swept into the | ocean. The Steamer righted again in a short time, and not having had her ma- chinery injured, proceeded on her way, | ‘the wind continuing to blow tremendous- ly, as it did until about 12 on Thursday. _ By great skill and judgment, Captain Potter worked the Steamer along without -a rudder for forty miles, brought her up ‘to the main bar, where she was met by the Gladiator, taken in tow, and both got up to Smithville at nine last night, from thence the V. was towed to town by the | | ‘forces there, amounting at the last ac- | counts to about 2,000 men, and being con- | | Gladiator.

I speak now from actual observation and experience. I regard the following articles as indispensa- bly necessary fur every volunteer to take along with him. ‘I'wo red flannel shirts, three hick- ory, or checked linen shirts, one pair thick boots, best quality; one extra pair of stout cassinet pantaloons, and two or three pair woolen socks. Linen or cotton shirts will be of no use arising from the extreme difficulty of procuring wash- ing. As a very general thing the men have to do their own washing. Afier you get into Mex- ico, you have to rely entirely upon settlers, to procure the above articles, and they can only be procured by paying the most extravagant prices, and frequently they cannot he had at all. The following prices charged in the column to which I am attached, will satisfy every citi- zen soldier of the necessity of procuring these things previous to leaving the United States. — Flannel shirts of the coarsest material were selling for three dollars a piece, coarse satinet pantaloons from six to eight dollars a pair, coarse brogans three dollars a pair, coarse boots from five to six dollars a pair, and hickory shirts from a dollar to a dollar and a half a pair. These rates when compared with the price at which they can be procured in the United States, will demonstrate the necessity of the course I ad- vise. Volunteers should also remember that frequently these necessary articles cannot be procured at any rate, and that in consequence of every thing nearly that grows in Mexico be- | ing covered with thorns, their clothing is de- | stroyed much more rapidly than they would be | in the same service in the United States. Each | soldier in addition to the above articles should ‘furnish himself with a good substantial blue cloth forrage cap. | not be necessary. But I can assure them from | four months experience among a large body of men, that they are necessary to secure not only ‘the comfort but the health of the men. ‘Trusting the above suggestions may not be regarded as arrogance in me, I remain very | respectfully.

Besides this, it is well known that the Majority of the Senate, consisting 0 all the Whigs, and four or five Democrats,, will never assent to any modification’ of the measure, which will make it less strin- gent and oppressive upon the people, or ing to the Administration. less embarrass! It is remarkable that the President} should be so much enamered now of a | scheme avhich he so contemptuously spur- ned in 1833, when it was introduced by a distinguished representative in Congress ‘from this State. And bis sudden love for | itisstrangerstillif as now seems to be con- ceded, this neasure is “stringent & oppres- sive upon the people, and embarrassing to the Administration.” Why, if this be the {act should he adhere to it? Does his “ de- mocracy” teach him to oppress the “dear _people”—and is this to be done, even al the hazard of perplexing his own Finan- cial Secretary, and embarrassing the op- he was.at erations of the government of which he is the head? Mr. Calhoun “ foresaw ” this | result at the last session, and earnestly | insisted upon the postponement of his “great measure of Deliverance and Lib- erty,” which, it seems, even he thinks, is only adapted for periods of peace and tranquility, and is wholy unsuited tor a time of war—the most powerful argument, by the way, against its adoption at all. since it shows the worthlessness of the system itself, But, the Baltimore Con- vention had pledged the party to ils a-| doption, and therefore they enacted it nei- ther knowing nor caring whether its effects would be beneficial or injurious. No one, however, now doubts that the scheme is not only oppressive to the extent that it is enforced, but that in its leading features it is entirely impracticable. Yet Mr. Polk, who violently opposed it in 1833, is now for sticking to it. beits effects what they may! We hope that Congress will exhibit less obstinacy and more judg- -ment—not, indeed, in “ modifying” the humbug, but in repealing it altogether. It is time that the government should a- bandon its ruinous and oppressive “ expe- riments,’ and return tothe “good old paths” which were rapidly leading us on to prosperity and happiness, when the | “new lights,” unfortunately obtaining con- trol of the government, have run the Ship of State upon quicksands and breakers. Richmond Whig. Operation of the New Tariff.—The New York Express states, under date of the Sth in. | stant, that the receipts at the Custom-House in that city for the three days preceding the ope- ration of the new Tariff had been about two hundred and eighty thousand dollars. The first day the amount was about one hundred and thirty thousand dollars. pated. A large amount of goods had been en- tered at the Custom-House, which were in the public store, but not as large as was anticipa- ted.” THE AMERICAN REVIEW: A Whig Journal of Politics, Literature, Art & Science. | Evirep spy Geo. H. Cotton, assistep By C. W. Wes- BER, OF KENTUCKY. Tur American Review has now reached nearly the end of a second year. Its success so far has been en- tirely unprecedented. Its subscription list now numbers about 3,500, with a constant increase. ‘The public sense of the value of the work is shown by the fact, that of the numerous new subscribers whose names have been sent into the office within the last few months, a large number have ordered the back volumes. Ample ar- rangements have been made to add greatly to the mer- its of the work, in both its political and literary charac- ter; and it is confidently believed that the patronage of this Review, on the part of the Whig party, and of the literary public generally, will soon be so large as to ena- ble it to pay so liberally for every order of high and fin- ished writing, as to make it in all respects the mos able and attractive periodical published in the United States. We earnestly ask the continued confidence and support of all true minds in the country. Encravincs.—There will be four engravings each year, carefully executed ; and what is of more impor- tance, accompanied with ample biographies, that may | stand as a part of the history of the country. Moreem- | bellishments may be given, if the intrinsic value of the | Review can thereby be enhanced. Terms.—The Review will continue to be published ‘at Five Dollars, in advance; Three copies, however, will be afforded at twelve dollars; Five for twenty dol- | | lars; so that Committees, Sucieties, Clubs, &c., can ob- tain them at a more liberal rate.

Mr. Polk will tind his attempts to frighten Congress or the Press into si- lence, a3 abortive as other attempts he has made, to winsuccess lor his party and his measures, by corresponding declara- tions of his own virtue and other people’s wrong. A man, proving himsclf so good a patriot, and so wise aman.as Mr. Polk pretends to be, will never, like Mr. Polk, be found either traducing his opponents or praising fuimself. The justice of his measures Will vindicate the purity of his motives. [ots certaia that Mr. Polk’sown friends iu Congress have not, at the pre- sent session, shown any remarkable at- tachinent to his person Gr his intolerable doctrine against tree discussion, by impu- ting treascn to those who dare consider and comment Upon iS ets ()ne of the Representatives of his party, Mr. Holmes, ot S. C., has denounced the Proclamations of Captain Stockten and General Near- ney, asin utter violation of every princi: ple of international lay. Ile has said, too, that the Executive could have had nou knowledge ot the law of nations, and io Very Correct understanding of the Con- stitution of the United States, to have sanctioned such acts of official misconduct on the part of the President’s otficers.— Anotber member from South Carolina, (Mr. Rhett.) hoped to excuse the whole matter, by declaring that the President's otiicers,x—men like Kearney, Sloat and Stockton, could not be expected to have any very critical acquaintance with the Constitution, and the reason was, that this gentleman, who has recently visited Lon- don, found very intelligent nerchants who eould not comprehend the nature of our Government! We doubr, if the officers, whose acts are meant to be defended by this tlimsy shield. would thank Mr. Rhett for any such appeal in their behalf. We His theory is good enough, but his defence of the practice as bad as the «Executive could wish for “his support. Mr. Wood- ward, “of S. C., says to his party, gentle- men, don’t put the President upona ground where he cannot stand—don’t-defend him in false principles—don’t put bim in the wrong and then straigh-way defend his greatest enormities. This man all through runs away with the principle, and the “one man power” is defended as if thére was no such thing ‘ag a Country and a Constitution. The debate must be renew- ed upon this Resolution on Monday. The other proceedings of, the arse, during the week, have not been-of much 4 importance. In both Houses tHe annual’ Reports have been submitted, and ‘they | will present much matter of comment and | reference for some days to come. Hfouses notices have been given of bills which are to be brought forward for the | purpose of increasing the pay and subsist- ence of Volunteers. Gentlemen who re- ceive eight collars for every twenty miles | of travel, ought to be willing to allow something more than fifty cents for the same distance. The monthly pay is also less than it should be, and the clothing and subsistence provided in a manner, and at an expense, which makes the Vol- | unteer service more onerous than the ser- vice in the regular army.

He might associate with him a number of his friends, who might also | carry arms in this way, and nobody would have a right to complain, provided they molested and threatened no one. But if they should plant tllemselves in front of his neighbor’s house, and point their guns at his window, there might be just cause of complaint. Such an act, of itself, | would provoke resistance, even aggression, &c. Dr. Giiiram advised his friends on the oth- er side, to make up their minds to take the pill. It would not hurt them. It had been carefully prepared, and if they would go it like men, they might be certain no murder would be done.— He cautioned them that it would be unbecom- _ing, to make faces at a compound which they had once prepared for the Whigs. Mr. Hocawn said, that the pill had been pre- pared by a skilful Physician, and it was a rule with him, when be employed a Physician in _whosé skill he had confidence, to swallow the | physic and ask no questions. Our Democratic friends would behave with dignity becoming . . . i . | themselves, conrsidering, if they would follow his example.

There is no cause for alarm, at what he is pleased to call our physic. We ask him to as. | sert no “lie,” in the language of a distinguish. | 'ed Democrat—(Whigs have used none such.) We do not ask him even to censure the Presi- dent. In this Preamble, we do not character- | ise the ‘‘act of the Executive ” as wrongful.— We only speak of it as an act of his, which act he himself, justifies, at large in his late Message. If then we only speak of it as an act without either praising or blaming it, and if that act is true, and admitted by himself to be true, why this repugnance on the part of our friends! Af- ter disposing of these few preliminaries, Mr. | Wappexv turned upon the Senator of Wake, and such atorrent of indignant eloquence pour- ed at, over, and all around, the cowering Sena- | tor, about that charge of treason, made against the Whigs in high places, and caught up and echoed here, has been rarely witnessed. Jur- ing some of the bursts, one Whig at least held his breath ; and in that Hall, you might almost ‘have heard a spider weaving bis web, so pro- found was his silence. ‘The chain was broken, andthe galleries cleared by Mr. Asim, who | made a long and bitter speech, but he spit out | his words so confusedly, that he commanded but | little attention. After Mr. Asme was done, the | Senate adjourned without taking a vote. {The subject was resuméd again on Wednes- | day; but we have no further space to-day, for a continuation of the sketch. We will give the finale in our next. The Senate*continued in { session until 5 o’clockeP. M.. Speeches were 4 i delivered by Messrs. Wkppert, Francts, and -Gitmer, on they Whig side, ahd: Ly®Messrs: PRICES IN 1815 AND IN 1846. The following isa sentence taken from Mr. Secreta- _ ry Walker's Report to the present session of Congress: “ Table I, hereto annexed, shows that the aggregate vaiue of cotton, rice, wheat, rye, Indian corn, oats, and barley, was on the 3Uth July, 1846, under the old tariff | $493,331,906; and’on the Ist December, 1846, when the new tariff went into effect, &609,287,566— making an aggregate difference in ine price of $115,955,659.” The New York Tribune replies to this statement by affirming these undeniable facts: “J. That the rise in the prices of Grain was greater from July 30th to Dec. Ist of last year, when no relaxa- tion of either Tariff had-been made, than in the corres- ponding period of this year. “Q. That the prices of Grain were fifteen per cent. higher on the Ist of December of last year (before Messrs. Polk and Walker had broken ground against the Taniff of °42) than on the Ist of December.of thia year. “3. That the prices of Grain in this country largely and pretty steadily declined throughout the month of November of this year, being the month preceding the Ist inst., ‘Dec.) when the Tariff of 1846 went into ope- ration . The Richmond Times says every body recollects that the price of breadstuffs was higher in the first of Decem- ber, 1845, than it was at the same period in the present year. Referring to our files, we find the following que- tations for the Rictimond market on Monday,Dec, let 1845: “ Frourn—Holders ask §6 50. “ Corn—70 cts. per bushe!, and wanted. “ WheatStrictly prime white Wheat @] 40; g8Bd red Zt. 30 a, Bs ee . <* a < . ond 30th, 18 4Ga Ms -sghpe , Kod on, Mi Ls Novgiiier 14 & rr » Tr, i. 2 , 4 plage). the pucell ere}. | heap, Tuono Fngd Ca xergy ithe P07 Pips ART A @ST yA TF BEd te ad GWE aN AC- | i Wyeat—aBest*red $1 10; best white $1 15. , but must add here, that Mr. | Wappe t, by his speech,.did what no one else i could have done, eclipsed his previous efforts. | It is evident from these quotations, that the Tribane’s | At length, the voting commenced.
