To the President rf tile United States. Sir The citizens ofcMootpelier and its vi nity, have directed their committee to present ou their respectful salutations, and bid you a cordial welcome. The infancy of our settlements places our progress in the arts and sciences, something be hind most of our sister states', but wc shall not be denied some claim to a share of that ardent love of liberty and the rights of man, that attach ment to the honor and interests of our country, which now so distinguish tbe American charac ter : while the fields of Hubhardston, the heights of Walloonsack, and the plains of Plattsburg, at e admitted to witness in ur favor. Many of those we now represent, ventured their lives in the revolutionary contest j and permit us, sir, to say the value of this opportuni ty is greatly enhanced by the consideration that we now tender our respects to one who shared in alt the hardships and dangers of that eventful period, which gave liberty and inde pendence Jo our country j nor are we unmid ful, that frcin that period until now, every pub lic act of your life evinces an unalterable attach ment to the principles for which you then con tended. . - - With such pledges, we feel an unlimited con fidence, that should your measures fulfil your intentions, your administration, under the guidance of Divine Providence, will be as pros perous and happy as its commencements tran quil and promising ; and that the honor, the rights, and interests of the nation will pass from your hands unimpaired. JAMES FISK, For the Committee.

Rencontre. Many Iftrtrd reds of our citizens in TownUk, on Sullivan's Island, witnessed, on Saturday last, a smart cannonading between Fort Johnson and the revenue schr. Gallatin. The latter, it appears, had been out over the bar, having on board a number of gentlemen, on a party of pleasure. On her return to Town in the afternoon, passing the Fort she was. tired at, with a view ot bringing her too, under tlie qua rantine regulationsthe shot was immediately returned by the cutter, and a smart fire was kept upbetween them, until the latter got out of reach of the guns of the Fort. The flag of the revenue cutter halhcrctofore beeugeneraly considered as a sufficient evidence of her cha racter, to allow her to pass, the Fort without molestation, but a different opinion appears now to prevail $ which gave rise to the above conflict. We do not learn that any injury was sustained either by the Fort or Cutter oa this ccasion. THE ST ATEOF MISSISSIPPI. The Convention elected under the authority I' il .
