OrnciAL Rshkcsm. Among the ratlr in
b air which our people are fond of raising occa
sionally are official residences for our higher State
and civic oSIcuu. oat none of these airy super-
structures hare ever resolved the aye res into moee
j solid elements than such as ia the colors of the
rainbow live and plav in tbe plighted clood. The
greet Mate of rsew l ork did once, it is true, pur
chase a three walled house for iU Governor, and
every year there is talk at Washington of building
official residences for the Heads of Department!". I
some eotnosiasuc uoinsmiiesnave even indulged i

Hotel de Ville, oi Paris or tbe Mansion House, of
London. Rut the only official residence in our
whole Union, we believe. Is the White House in
Washington, the palace of our President Poon-
sylvanla, however, h about to purchase a houe
for tbe residence of the Governor of that State,
and it the bargain should be completed, perhaps
all the otber members of the confderacv will be
induce.! to follow the example of the Keystone
State. The second State in tbe Union has not
made a very magnificent beginning towards an

4 The death of Havelock has plunged all Eng
land in sorrow, and we can well afford to say
that our mother country . never", eorrewed. for a
nobler or a braver man. ' .The news came to them
in the midst of the matt active preparations for a
great national jubilee, in honor tu the approach
ing nuptials of the Princess Royal ; and the effuct
upon the public mind, we judge by the tone of
the journals, was that of a suddenstunnihg blow
or, as if some ghost had atalked into a marriage
feat, to chill the revelers at the board. The pre
vious advices from India said nothing o( his in
dixpoMtinn, and his death, therefore, was wholly
unlooked for. He did not die on the battle-field
but in his tent, a victim to dysentery the re
sult, no doubt, of fhe exposure and incessant anxie
ty inseparably incident to the arduous nature of
tae bniCant operations at Uawnpore, Allakabad
and Lucknow, of all of which he was the master
spirit. Gen. Havelock, was' a good man, as well
as a great General, and he died before he had op-
pertunity to know how much his country and his
sovereign tnougbt or mm. It was the (jueen $
determination to raise him to the peerage ; and on
hearing of his death, her Majeatv at once ernress-
ed her intention to take his family 'tinder her
special protection .Parliament has already de
vlarod its wish to provide for tho eldest son by
making the pension of 1000 a year, proposed for
his father, inheritable by him; and it is given
nut in the Court Journal, that apartments in
Hampton Court Palace will, as soon as possible,
he granted to Lady Havelock and her daughters,
together with a pension of X&00 a year. All this
is right. It is a graceful act on . the part of the
Crown ana tae crown thus.
it is certain, re-
spends to the unanimous and heartfelt wishes of
the British people.
Marshal Kadetzky wasa man of another descrip-
tion.- Austria will miss him in ber raihtary es-
(aoiiftamrni. out wi uouoi wueuier many tears win
oesned ror mm in luiy, in Switezrland, or in
Hungary, upon all of which, at some time or
other, in the course of his military experiences he
has laid a heavy hand. Hi active mi litary career,
thinning as far back as the memorable ige of
Belgrade, and coming down as late as tbe sup-i
jre-uoo oi iuo raceui insurrection at Allian, laKes :
in a eriod of seventy years, and brings us retros
;vtively in contact, again with battles the history j
of which the average young men of this age mut
have read over when "they were yet boys Novi, !

.,r. . ....
niuiiary roan. nerover mere u a "people' in
Enmpe", in the sense in which that phrate jg used
in the United States his name was tar from popu
lar,. He was a valuable servant to the House of
Hapsburgh, and bis lo will be more severely felt
ano lamented in the juilace of Schoenbrun than
anywhere vine. There are many Italian and
Hungarian exiles sojourning among us here, at
any rate, who will be likely to receive the an
nouncement of his death without any of tboe sor
rowful emotions which the decease of Havelock has
called forth, among all classes of men, in Great
Britain.
Reschid Pacha the next on the death list we
Americans do not know much about. We are
not just now aware that we ever came in contact
with him, in any way. or had any dealings with
him of importance, as Grand Vizier of Turkey .
It cannot be expected, therefore, that we should
shed any sentimental tears over his demise. He
was an honorable specimen of a Turkish politician;
and if we nave read his history aright, he was
both in his private and public relations a much
bonester man than politicians and prime minis
ters generally are. If there is nothing else for
which his memory should be revered, the tact that
he kept only one wife, when he might hare bad a
harem; unquestionably recommends itself to the
consideration of his biographers.. The world can
not afford to lose many such Turks in those days,
when polygmv and concubinage are bold enough
to dare even the United States to a passage at
arms
Poor Rachel I Though it cannot be sad that
she outlived her fame, as the acknowledged queen
of the modern stage yet, if all be true that has
been told of her since her return from tbe United
States she had certainly survived all the real en
joyments of life. Wealth, without health, to a
heiog like her, must have been, but a burthen
though to that burthen she clung to the latest
moment of ber life. Since, we saw her here in
New York, two summers aincf, she has been a
a-andcrer in tbe pursuit of that which no riches
could buy, no genius, however brilliant, could woo
a restored constitution. Leaving tbe United
Stales she went to Havana from Havana to
England then from Rnglaud to France then
from France to Egvptretuming, wearily, to
die, at last, at her sumptuous- residence at
Canne. .The obituary writers all speak of her as
Mademoiselle' though, if we are not mistaken,
she has had as many as seven children, who de
lighted to call her mother. The eccentrkties,

ground that they were not in accordance with the

null and void. This gives the State officers to the

Sir: I have to acknowledge the receipt of your

t a it . i . . 3
! tbe first part of it contains language which must
I m it; ii l wimi murn your teller unaiiswereu, sunn
be regarded as insulting. But waiving this for
mality, I must call your attention to the fact that,
by the code of honor, the challenging party is not
entitled to prescribe the weapons, nor the mode of
using them. Moreover, the mode which you sug
geff is one entirely incompatible- -with the
usage which obtains among gentlemen, sineo it
would leave tbe issue entirely to the decision of
chance. 1 am not willing for you to use a weapon
against me without an opportunity fullv secured
to me of equal resistan Still less will 1 consent,
under any circumstance to use a deadly weapon
against an unarmed man. ' , -
On reflecting, you must admit tbeee suggea

Whenever you shall send me such a challenge
as I can accept consistently with the just sense of i
i Honor and propriety recognised tv established
usage, 1 shall then be authorised to accord to
you the satisfaction which you may desire. Such
challenge must not include conditions invasive

which prevails among eontlemen of honor.

RicnMONP, Saturday Night, 9 o'clock,
January 23 .'53.
Sir: In reply to your note of this evening, I
have to say that, in making to you the proposi
tions contained in my letter of this morning, 1
was onlv following the example you had set me
of a violation of the "rode," the rights and priv
ileges of wSiich-you now claim.' You should
either stand within tlto limit of the. "code," or
oubode of them not tirst within and then with
out, as may suit Your necessities or your fancy.
If within the code, then, as the aggrieved party,
it was vour duty to have demanded satisfaction
of me in accordance with the requirements of that
code. But you thought proper to act otherwise
to put yourself outside of the code and utterly
disregard " the usage which obtains among gen
tlemen." In a word, you i set out with a delibe
rate violation of the "code," and now claim to
have conceded to you all the rights, privileges and
advantages which the "code" accords to those who
recognize it and regulate their conduct by it.
This unjust and extraordinary concession I am
not prepared to make to you, or to any other man.
Under the circumstances therefore, . you arei not
entitled to any recognition from me, under the
code. I have, therefore, submitted to you a pro
position outside of it, which you are at liberty to
acoept or not, as suits you. It is proposition
which puts us both on terms of perfect equality,
although, I admit you, it is not within tbe limits
of the recognized "code of honor. But I submit

upon the ground that it is u entirely incompatible
with the usage which obtains among gentlemen."
Your course of proceeding certainly had not the
sanction of such " usage."' How. then, can you
reasonably object to my proposition, for the rea
sons aligned in your letter?
In conclusion,! have to say to you, that I have
no other proposition to make, and .as you decline

! erations to conduct his army up the Colorado river,
j which is believed to be, navigable for three hun
; dred miles above its junction with tbe Gila, and
i in the exact direction of. Utah. An officer of the
army is now engaged in surveying the river, and
so far as it has been yet examined, it has been
f.mnd a dtepstreara, w'ithout shoal or falls, with a
current of three miles an hour.
The estimates to supply deficiencies in the ap
propriations of the present fiscal year for the army,
and which will be included in the General De
tfcieney Bijl, to be reported from the Committee
of Ways and Means, amount to $6,700,000. The
estimates for the Post Office deficiencies-amount
to $1,406,173. Other deficiencies sum up the
total amount to about $9,000,000. 1 These esti
mates for tbe army provide not only for the
services of the present fiscal year, bus also for
service in the- fiscal year ending 30th of Juno,
18S9. Subsistence and means of transportation,
reinforcements Ac, for the army for Ltahj must
be provided for early operations in that Territory

EXCITING NEWS FROM MEXICO. .
Niw Orleanb, Jan. 25. By the Tennessee
the Picayune is in receipt of private advices from
the city of Mexico to the 18th, being two weeks
later than previously received. These advices
announce the bombardment of the capital by the
opponents of Cotnonfort, and a desperate conflict,
which continued for several days, resulting in
the loss of over one hundred lives, and the
wounding of a large number more. The persons
who Trerein possession of the citadel and tha
convents of San Domingo and . Augustine , were
the partisans of Santa Anna, whose recall to the
Presdency was loudly demanded. . On the llfth.
the day p'revious to the sailing ot the steamer, a
truce for twenty-four hours between the opposing
forces was agreed to. At the last moment, pre
vious to the arrival of the Tennessee, intelligence'
was received that the coalition were marching
upon the city, and the civil war had - fairlyj be

SPEECH' OF WALTER IV LEAK, ESQ., AT

Mr. Editor: r Walter F. Leak, the indepen
dent Distribution candidate for-; Governor, ad
dressed the citizens ,"of Richmond, in the Court
House at Rockingham,- on : the- 19th -Inst. He
opened his address by declaring himself a Demo
Crat, Ichallenging, inquiry - into vhis antecedents
" from manhood to middle age, and from middle
age to riper years "-rthirty-seven years and by
comparing iumself with unquestioned and un
questibriable Democrats...,, He then proceeded to
state his views upon . Distribution ; asserting that
it is rjot a hobby -for ? hi9 views - now" upon the
question are wnat they nave ever been, ana going
on much after the manner of hisnblished letter.

AN AMERICAN.
. Important Tclcgraphic -; Imrovrmsht.
The editor of the Journal of Commerce witnessed
at the loffice -of the. American Telegraph Company,
the operation of Hughes' ' printing telegraph,' as
recently improved, by ;i which the extraordinary
feat is performed of sending and recording, at the
same time, rom opposite ends of the wire, two
clistinct despatches; and this is done in jA&ln al
phabeticAichamcters.' - The electric currents meet
and cross each other without disturbance or irreg
ufarlty' so that in many cases the answer to a
despatch begins to be received before the original
has been wholly transmitted, although ' but one
wire is employed to perform the double duty.
The instrumen ts are now completed, and adapted
for practical use. -. For communicating in' either
direction, but two ordinary celte of the Grove
battery1 are used ; and although the wires are
worked both wars at the the same time, the bust
ness is executed with the usual i rapidity ? But
one operator is required . reeeivo inu uuiivr
despntches by this, process for, as regards des
patches received, it is onlv necpsary to cut off
the slip, when completed. ..Tbe .printing done
during ths exhibition while the wires were work
ing between New York and Philadelphia, was no
ticeabli for its accuracy and clearness. The type
is arranged on the periphery of a wheel,- from
which he impression ia taken, in ink, without
checking its motion.. " The result above noticed
is looked upon as of much importance, as greatly
increasing the capacity of a single" wire for busi
ness, and tending to diminish the telegraphic
rates.
