I h id never nppued it tvouM be so fir acespi.ihle to the public as to render an uppli calion to me necessary to ascertain my wishes or determination. Not having taken any pains to ascertain public opinion upon that subject, I am perhaps less acquain ted with the sentiments ol even our own State than any of my colleagues. As to my own wish es and determinations, lean have no difficulty in giving you an an swer. I am not conscious that at anv moment ot my life I have ever ished to be President ot the j United States; I have never kuow-i jngly uttered a sentence, or done ; an act, lor the purpose of induc ing any person to think of me for that distinguished station.

Our relations with France The Ship Sully arrived at New ! lorli on Saturday, bringing Paris dates to the 17th January. The intelligence bv this arrival, furn ihes gooil grounds for the belief' that the difficulties between our Government and Franc- will be amicabiy adjusted. Tin; indem nity bill was brought forward in the Chamber of Deputies on the f:h ultimo, and il would appear from the Sp--rh of the Minister i I V I 1 ' i f i oi j mance in.u ine l rencu .Min isters are dejermined, notwith- landing the objectionable light in twbic.il tbev iev the Messafe of t i (,e-Jackson, to tm in ijood faith, and to endeavor to fulfil the slip- j uiatious ol the lieatv. c trust that this expectation may be rea lized. WbiLt we have admitted the patriotic tone of tin; Presi dent's Message, we have alvavsi regarded the implied threat which il held forth, as not only unwise, but as calculated to retard, if not entirely prevent the settlement of the controversy between the two countries. The Kxecutive should have carefully abstained from placing France in ihe altitude of ful filing its engagements to us un der a threat of war or reprisals. We are however pleased to find that the French Cabinet, regard ing the message "as an act of the Government as yet incomplete," have resolved, without waiting for the aclion of the American Congress, lo urge upon the Chambers the necessity of main taining the "good faith'' of ihe nation by the immediate passage of ihe bill. If the Ministry are sincere (as we believe) in their efforts to fulfil the stipulations of the treaty, there is every ground to believe that they wiil succeed. But should they not be acting in good faith, or should their efforts fail of success, there w ill be but one opinion among the people of this country as to the stand to be taken by our Government. How ever much we may regret and condemn the hasty and ill judged action of our Chief Magistrate, wj,;r, m;iv have been seized unnn non-fulfilment of the treaty, no one will be found to recognise the validity of that excuse, or to with hold his aid from any judicious plan for obtaining redress for the wrongs inflicted upon our citizens. We have, however, no reason to doubt ihe sincerity of the French Ministry, and, from the fact that Mr. Livingston had not applied for his passports but had deter mined to await the action ofth Chambers in reference to the in demnity bill, there is every proba bility that our relations with on ancient ally will be restored anti iced on their former amicable footing. eL inL Shameful. The New York Commercial Advertiser say.s.- VVe cannot forbear mentioning, though with very deep mortifica tion, an incident of Saturday, which reflects great discredit up on a portion of our population the constituency, par excellence, of our present representatives in the National and State Legisla tures, h was this: On the laud ing of the French officers from ihe ship, at Castle Garden, be tween one and two o'clock, a mob assembled at the gate of the bridge, to oppose their coming shore. It was a base ragamuffin crew of boys and universal suffrage voters, who threw themselves in the way of the officers, and assail ed them with insulting exclama tionscrying "Down with the Frenchmen!" "Don't let them come! "Drown them!" &c. &c. The officers were on their way to the hou.se of the Consul-General, who resides at the Battery, and tiV mob accompanied them thith er, to the number of seven or eight hundred. M. Le Forest was at the office of the Consulate at the time, tu which place a par' of the mob continued their course Their rude and ruffian cries were continued at his house lor a time, and M. Le Forest represented llu cise to the Mayor, whose depot I menf on the occasion was such as might have been expected from that officer, who is alike a gentle man in his feelings and conduct. The feelings of these Mranis gentlemen themselves, ami at tached to a most honorable service were of course deeply injured at snob a reception from the old friends and ..Hies of their own country. They knew not what to make of Mich a popular out breaking in a time of peace and in a country boasting so much of its intelligence and orderly character. But the most Mili-ltieiory repre sentations have been made to them, and the Mibj'-ct is now, as we h ive reason to believe, uuder slood in its true linht. liattle bttwern the Indians and Poles. It appears from a letter received this week from a respect able Polish emigrant, at New Orleans, that about 20 of bis countrymen, not meeting with any means of support, and lotallv w ithout funds, departed from New Orleans for Mexico, by land, through the Texas cotmtrv. Having no guide, nor knowledge of the w ilderness route, they be came utterly lost, when they were fiercely attacked by a numerous body of Indians. The Poles had but few guns, but maintained a long and bloody conflict, until they had killed a large number of their enemy. They, however, suffered severely, having bail two of their number slain, and the re mainder wounded. Only one Pole w as able to reach New Or leans. Louisville Journal. Xeiv York Market, Feb. 21.

One of the Pilots, who had come up from below says the Baltimore Chronicle states, that on Mon day last, the whole Bay was frozen over to Capes Henry and Charles, and that the Pilot boats had great difficulty in getting in from sea ice two and a half inches thick. This may be regarded as a most remarkable circumstance,' not happening perhaps once in fifty years. The distance from Balti more to the Capes, is estimated at about 200 miles. Distressing Casualty. D r. Samuel S.
