May 28, 1850. 89-tf A Migratory Government and a fighting Am- hntsftdor.—In the course of the discussion of the Diplomatic Appropriation Bill in the Senate, a few days ago, Mr. Critteuden introduced the fol lowing incident:— “While I was on one occasion temporarily act ing in the absence of the Secretary of State, per forming ad interim his duties for a week or two, there arrived here an old friend of luino, one whom I valued a great deal, too, and he told me he had been abroad. He was sent out as minister to some little Republic in the mountains of South America, Bolivia, or Ecuador, or some other. He gave me an account of his travels and of the country. He had traversed the Andes and scaled the Cordilleras, &c., and at last he reached the spot where he was told he .should find a Govern ment, and that very Government to which he had been sent. He got there. He said that, upon inquiry, he was told that the Government had left there a few days, or perhaps a few weeks before, and gone somewhere else further into the moun tains. There was, however, a fragment of the late Government—a man hovering about there who had been Secretary of War. He approached nearer the character of the Government than any- I thing else he saw or heard of, he addressed him self to that Secretary of War. He had had a gotten up by Madame Teller, expressly for our own sales^ very disagreeable travel through the mountains to Together with a handsome assortment of Missea and | , i, To the Iiitt‘re«>t oT Tiirpeiitine Di»lillerst.

He was not very well versed in diplo matics, and I suppose his letter was not very courteous. He received a reply in consonance with the letter, which he immediately followed by a peremptory challenge to fight a duel. [Laugh ter.] He thought that belonged to the depart ment to which he was addressing himself, and be challenged him immediately to mortal combat. Not being able to obtain a meeting with this Secretary of War, he abandoned the country as utterly unworthy of all further negotiation or any treaties of peace whatever, and came right home; and that was the end of his mission.

Why there should be so much brain fever, delirium tremens^ and so much sudden death among our young men who indulge at the bar, cannot be explained upon any common prin ciples. An expert chemist of this city bought of an importer a bottle of what was called genuine champagne. Analyzation proved it to contain one quarter of an ounce of sugar of lead I The same gentleman analyzed sixteen samples of wines—Port, Sherry and Madeira—in which not out d I op of the juice of the grape was found.
