' COL. BENTON'S HISTORY. .' JskdioutfFttidait by On Utnueof Xrpraenla. ' . freer. . ... t One of th latest extracts from Cut. Benton' Look, published by the Now York Evening Poet, Is in relation to th election of President by lb House of Representative in 1825. After peaking briefly of the remarkable and protract. d contest of 1800-1801, between Jefferson and Burr, which finally resulted in the choice of Jefferson and defeat of Burr, Mr. Benton pro Meda: . . V, '!" The eecond Presidential electionin the House of Representatives m after the lapse ofa quar. ter of a sentory, and under th amended eon trtitution, which carried the three highest on the list so th House whew bo ona had a majority of the electoral vote. Gen. Jaoksnn, John Quincy Adams, and Mr. William U. Crawford wen the threeTlheir respectivs vote being 99, 84, 41; and In this ease a'seeond strule took plaoe- between the theory of the constitution and the democratic principle, and with ereotual de feat to the oppascrs of that principle though temporarily successful. Mr. Adams was elect' d, though Gen. Jackson wa the choice of the people, having received the greatest number ef votes, and being undoubtedly the second choice of several State whose rotes bad been give, to Mr. Crawford and Mr. Clay, (at tlit jreneral election.) The Representatives from sons of these States gave the vote of the State to Mr. Adams, upon the argument that he was beet qualified lor the station, and tbt.t It was dangerous to our institution to eleot a military chieftain an argument which 'assumed a guar' dinoship over the people, and implied the ne cessity of a superior intelligence ti guide them for their own good. The election of Mr. Adam .. was perfectly constitutional, and as such fully I submitted to by the people; but it wa lo a violation of the demot kratto principle ; and that violation wo lignally rebuked. All the repre swntatlves who voted against the will of their constituents lost their favor, and disappeared from public life. The representation in the Uous of Representatives wua largely changed at the first general election, and presented a full opposition to the new Pieeideftfc Mr. Adams himself was injured by it, and at the ensuing Presidential lection wa beaten by General Jackson more than two to one 178 to 83. Mr. Clay, who took the lead in the House for Mr. Atkins, and afterwards took upon himself the mission f re eoneiling the people to hi election in a series of public speeches was himself crippled in the ef. fort, lost his place-in the Democratic party, join.- Iths Whigs (then csllel National Republic ins,) and ha sinoe presented the disheartening spec, tact of a former groat leader figuring at tlie head of hi ancient foes in all their defeats, and linger, ing oa their rear in victories. Ths Democratic principle was again victor over the theory of the ' constitution, and great and good were the re. ault that ensued. It vindicated tlia drasos in their right and their power, and showed that the pirn I to the constitution, "We, the people, do ordain and establish,". fcc, may also be ad' ded to it administration, showing them to be at nbl to administer as to make that instrument. It re-established parties upon the basis of prin ciple, and drew anew party lines, then almost obliterated under the fusion of parties during the "era of good feelings," and the efforts of the leading men to make personal parties for them" selves. It showed the conservative power of onr Uovarnmont to He in Hie people more than in it constituted authorities. It showed that they war capable of exercising the functions of self government. . It assured the supremacy of do mocracy for a long time, and until temporarily .' lost by causes to be shown in their proper place. Finally, it was a caution to all public men a. gainst future attempt to govern Presidential elections in tht House of Representatives. . It is no part of the object of this "Thirty Tear' View," to dwell upon tb conduct of in dividuals, except as showing the causes and the consequences of event; and, under this aspect, it become ths gravity of history to tell that, in , the two straggles for the elect) n of President, those who struggled against the democratic prin ciple lost their place on the political theatre, tb mere voting member being put down in their State and district, and the eminent actors forever ostracised from the high object of their ambition. ; A subordinate cause may have had it effect, and unjustly, in prejudicing the public mind against Mr. Adam ani Mr. Clay. They - naa Been puunoai aarersanea, co-operated in the election, and went into the Administration together. . Mr. Clay received the office of .Secre tary of State from Mr. Adams, and this gat ris to the imputation of bargain between tbem. - It came withia my knowledge, (for I was then intimate with Mr. Clay.) long before the election, and probably before Mr. Adam knew it bimself, that Mr. Clay intended to support him against General Jackson, and for the reasons afterward averred in hi public speeches. I made this known when occasion required me to speak of it, ana in in presence ot irienus ot the impugn, ed parties,' I went into the newspapers npon the information of these friends, and Mr. Clav , made his acknowledgement for it in a letter, of which Uii u) me exact copy: . "I have received a paper published on the 20th ultimo at Lexington, in Virginia, in which hi contained an article stating that you had, to a gentleman of that place, expressed ynur dis. belief of a charge injurious to me, touching the Ut Presidential election, and that 1 had com' munhwted to you unequivocally, before the 15th of December, 1824, my determination to vote fur V.:.

It went the round of the paper, and wa quote d and re. lied upon in debate in Congress, greatly to the dUsatptfaetionof many of my own party.' There ' ia no mistake in the data or the fact. .

In fact, th cirenttance ef the whole affair previous entagonitm.between th parties, aetual support in b election, and acceptance of bigb office made no a ear azainst Messrs. Adams and Clay which it was hardly safe for public men to create and to brave, however strong in their own contcioutnes of integrity. Still the great objection to the election of Mr. Adam was in ths violation of th principle dt Jtrerfeo; and in the question which it raised of the capac ity of the demos to choose a safe President for themselves. A letter which I wrote to th rep rcsentative from Missouri, before he gave th rote of the State to Mr. Adams, and which wa published immediately afterwards, placed the objection upon this high ground; eodjjpoa it the battle waa mainly fought and wen. It waa a victory of principle, and should not be.dis' paraged by the admission of an unfounded and subordinate cause. This presidential election of 1824 it remarks' blc under another aspect as having put an end to the practice of caucus nomination for the Presidency by member of Congress. This mode ofconoentrating public opinion began tn be proa, ticed as the eminent men of th revolution, to whom public opinion awarded a preference, were passing away, and when new men, sf more equal pretensions, were coming upon ths stage. It was tried several times with success and appro bation, public sentiment having been followed, and not led, by the caucus. It was attempted In 1824, and failed, the friends of Mr. Craw ford only attending others .not attending, not from any repugnance to the practice, as their previous conduct had ahown, but because it was known that Mr. Crawford bad ths largest number o friends in Congress, and would asau. rediy-receive the nomination All the rest, therefore refused to go into it ; all joined in op posing the "caucus candidate," as Mr. 'Crawford wa called; united in painting the intrigue and corruption of these eaucus nominations, and the anomaly of members of Congress joining in them. By their joint efforts they succeeded, and justly, in the fact though not in the motive, in rendering these Congress eaucus nominations odious to the people, and broke them down. They were dropped, and a different mode of con. centrating public opinion was adopted that of party nominations ny conventions or delegates, from the State. This worked well at first, the will of the people being strictly obeyed by the delegates, and (he majority making the nouiina. tion. But it quickly degenerated, and became obnoxious tn all the objections to Congress cau ens nomination, anil many others besides. Members of Congre-s still attended them either aa delegate oral lobby managers. Persons attend, ed as delegates who had no constituency. Dou. ble sets of dcjjfjiltes sometimes came from the s tmo State, and either were admitted or repul sed, as suited the views of the majority. Prox. iee were invented. Many delegates attended with the sole view of establishing a cl.um for office aud voted accordingly. The two thirds role was invent d to enable the minority to oontr il the m ijority; and the whole proceeding became an imafoun and irresponsible, and sub" jir-ive of the will of the people, leaving them no more control over the nomination than the subjects of kings have over the birth of the child which is born to rule over t'lem. King eaucus is as potent as any other king in this respect; for whoever gets the nomi. nation no matter how effected becomes the candidate of the party, from the necessity of onion against the opposite party, and from the indisposition of the great .States to go into the House of Representatives to be balanced by the small ones. This is the mode of making Presi, dents, practised by both parties now. It is the virtual election ! and thus the election of the President and Vice President of the United States ha passed not only from the college of electors to wlncn the Constitution eonnded it, and from the people to whom the uractice under the constitution gave it, and from the House of Kepresentatitea which the constitution provid ed as ultimate arbiters, but has gone to an ano maloua irresponsible body, unknown to law or constitution, unknown to tlie early ages of our (jovernmert, and of which a large proportion of members composing it, and a much larger proportion of interloper attending it, hav no other view either in attending or in promoting the nomination of anv tiarticular man than to get one elected who will enable them to eat of the public crib, who will give them a key to the public crib. The evil ia destructive to the right and sovereignty of the people and to the purity uf election. The remedy is in th application of tb democratic principle, tb people to vote direct for President and Vice President, and a second election to be held immediately between th two highest, if no on ha a majority of tb whole number on the first trial. But this would require an amendment of ths constitu. tion, not to be effected but by a concurrence of two.third of each House of Congress and th sanction of three. fourths of the States a con summation to which the strength of the people has not yet been eqaal, but of which there is no reason to despair. The great parliamentary reform in Great Britian was only carried after forty years of continued, annual, persevering exertion. Our constitutional reform, in this point of the Presidential election, may require but a few year ; in the meanwhile I am (or the people to tied as well as tltri their candidates, and for a reference to the House to choose one out of three presented by the people, instead of a caucus nomination of whom it pleased. The House of Representatives i no longcrjh (mall and dangerous electoral college that it once waa. Instead of thirteen States, we now have thirty, one t instead of sixty.tive Repreaeutativea, we now have about two hundred. Responsibility in the House is now well established, and poliu h-al ruin aod personal humiliation attend the violation of the will of the State. No man could be elected now, or endeavor to he elected, (after the experience of 18U0 and 1825,) who is not at the head of the list, and the choice of a majority of the Union. The lessrn of those times woU detir imitation, and the democratic principle would again crush all that waa inttru. mental in thwarting the publij will. There is no longer the former danger from the House of Representatives, nor anything in it to justify a previous resort to such assemblages as our na. tionnl conventions have got to be. The House is legal and responsible, which the convention is not, with a better chance for integrity, as having bees aotually elected by the people, and more restrained by position, by public opinion, and a clause in the constitution from the aeeepr tance of office from the man tl.ey eleet. It is fie eons itutional umpire ; nA, until ths con. stitution is amended, I am for nc'ing upon it as it is. ?

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY M0RNINO, ft THS AMERICAN NAVY. ! Th Washington correspondent nf th Phila delphia Inquirer, write thus of th American JNavy: - - The subject of our Nary has recently attract ed general attention, and an impression very correctly exists upon ths publis mind that In it present stats it is entirely insufficient for the wants of tb oountry, even under ordinary con tingencies, and quit below ths standard which tb immense commerce of the nation requires, and is also, dispro portioned to oar large mari. tisne resources. The fault of this sUte of things rest exclusively with a Democratic Congress, which ha for year past steadily refused to grant the estimate of the Navy Department fur build, ing new vessels. Th consequence is, that our Navy it not only increasing, but, so far aa res sels are concerned, has actually retrograded ; and such have been the necessities of the service that, as there were no appropriations for new vessel, the Department ha been obliged to take the money appropriated "fir rrpmn," and ns it to rebuild old ships ; and though this opera, tion goes under th nam of repairs, it is really an entire new construction. You may readily imagine what sort of repairs they are when the old Congress frigate, which originally waa of 36 funs and a boat 1,100 tons, is bow a doublet anked frigate of 2.000 tons, mounting 60 cuna. The old Franklin 74 i bow undergoing on of these repair, which will consist of stripping her f timber and plank down to th very keel, by using all ber good and sound timber for. the re construction of a new Franklin, 60 feet longer and much broader than her old namesake, giv ing her a screw propeller, and mounting on her .battery of Paixhao guns throwing lO.inch ex, plodiog shells; She will no doubt be the finest and most powerful ship is the Navy. am very glad that the present Secretary of the Navy ha decided on this plan ; fr w greatly want just that kind of vessels, and hope the completion of this ship will indue Congress to authorise the building and equipment of a doten similar one. Th three heavy 44 gun frigate whieh were in our Navy during the laat war with Great Britain (the President, United State and Con stitution,) have been the immediate cause of changing trie naval architecture ol all tne man. time nations of th world. In order to cope with these vessels after our first victories during that war. Great Britain hastily razeed some of ber small seventy .fours, by removing their poop end spsr decks, and leaving them with their two.deck gun batteries complete ; and she also, for the same purpose, built firs or six what she called SO.gun frigates, but actually mounting 60 guns. M that period the ordinary tonnage of 74. gun ship wo 1,600 to 1,800 tons; of 30. gun frigntcs 1.000 to 1,200; and of sloope of.war 400 tn 600. The new frigates that the United States began during the war, (Guarriere, Java, fee.,) were 1,500 tons. After the wa. and when IVn gress determined to make a large and perma nent increase to the Navy, the line. of. battle hips were moulded for ships of 2,000 and 2,200 tons, the frigate 1,600 to 1,800, and the sloops, of. war 700. The European nations, of course, adopted the same yatem, and at present we bare sloopnf.war, like the Gormsntown, James, town, 4c, of 1,000 ton ; frigates (Cumberland. Potomac, te. ) of 2,000 tons, and line-of.battle ships of 2,600 ton, to say nothing of the Penn. avlvania. of 3.300 ton. The new Macedonian, which ia a flushed deck (hip, is, I believe, near ly 1,400 tons, and cannot be designated under anv other elas than a sloop-of.war, as she has only her spar-deck battery, and none of her guns are uodr cover: she is in fact a heavy 38-gun frigate as to dimensions ; but with the frigate's nar-debk removed, aod her former gun.dcck is now her spar.deck ; but instead of mounting i nounners ner present Dattery is a pounoor.

" I would work an hour a sawing wood." said a shrewd Yankee, and earn a nuar. ter to pay my fare twelve miles, and go it in twenty minutes, before I'd spend foor hour to walk it." '. A man can get along without adverti sing, so be can go on loot to Allwnv, but what a fool he is to do either. Vug Ihiuk. . ' ' PIG SKI3TCAP3. ' ' There is a good deal of "human nature," and not a little of "the Yankee" in the following eircum lancet, which occurred in the history uf a successful merchant far "down East:" He was a "gentleman of duality," and as a successful merchant owed much of his good fortune to his knowledge of human character, of which, he always endeavored to take advan. tage. , Once upon a time, in connection with another person, he opened a branch-store in a towa in the north part of the State, which was mostly filled with the unsalable goods from tbeir principal establishment in the State metropolis. These goods were as "good as new" among the rus tics, and as a general thing sold quits ss well. There was a larg "tot" of pigtki tarn for win. ter wear, however, tba could not be got off at on price. i'he proprietor generally kept himself at his town establishment, but sometimes hs would visit bis eoontrystore, or "branch," . staying now and then a week or more at a time, and ah way attending th little oountry church. A a matter of course, hs was looked up to with emulation, if not astonishment, by the "go.to. meeting" young folks of th fcwa. What kt "wore to meeting" was ot necessity tb pre, vailing fashion until he introduced, a aew tjl at his next visit. , On day he asked hi country partner about the business and other matters in which they were interested, who said : ' - "Yes, good go pi etty quick, and at good prices.", . "You keep those plg.skin caps I see, yet t I am afraid I didn't make a great bargain in buy. ing .

Now next Monday morning you get them out, brush them up, and I think we'll find some customer fur them before the week is out." The next Sunday this acute observer of tlie springe of human action appeared in church with one of those identical pig.akia caps, tipped jauntily on one side of. his bead, and a splendid goto watch.cnain dangling from his roat pocket. As usunl, be waa the "observed of ull ob servers;" and it is superfluous to add that in loss than a fortnight after, at his metropolitan store, he received, a . large additional order for these suddenly popular pig skin caps. life "in Irance!

SEPTEMBER 21, 1853. , A LEGAL ANECDOTE. S. H. Hammond, editor of ths A I ban v Sta's Register, ia writing a series of interesting let. tirt for that paper from ths interior of tbe State. tram one or these, dated t Bath, Stouben coon, ty, we take the following laughable anecdote : I said 1 studied law in Until. Let me relate sa aBstdote connected with the first suit I aver bad e appearing in as counsel. My friend, 11. W. Roger, now of Buffalo. Was bit fullow-atu. dent then, and he will ptrdon me for relating ine tnumpn ni tne genius pt two young nun, who were seeking after distinction under some difficulties. A worthless scamp had been arrest, ed for soma misdemeanor assault and batt -ry, l Denevs ana being too poor to employ other eoonsel, applied to my friend Roger and myself o ueicna mm, promising to pay us s small tee fur assisting him in his trouble. ' n readilv undertook bis defenoe. tnromis. ing ourselves no light harvest of reputation from oar first effort at forensic eloquence. A jury wa summoned:, and three magistrates sat in solemn judgment to hoar the evidence against our UB'ortunate client Ws hadaday to j repair. ana tne speecnes witn wbica we intended to astonish the court and confound th jury were profoundly studied and reflected upon. -' - " Well, the evidence was oloeed. and, as was arranged beforehand, I mas toad-tress the jury. nu mj rrieua waa so louow. 1 gov, aa rar aa 'Gentlemen of tb Jurr.' and there I stuck like a pig in a fence. Not another sentence of my treat speech could 1 utter to save me. At length ia despair I told the jury, 'that aa I waa to be followed by my elder and abler associate. I would occupy no more of their time,' and tat djwa in a perfect confusion of shame. " Friend Rogers then roe to deliver bis maj. den speech. He, toe, got ss Nr as ' Gentlemen of the Jury',' and there hs stuck, as I bad dons before him. There was no uss In trying to go en. Ths great speech waa gone not a word uf il count ne oaten not a sentence could be bring to anna. -" He was in a boneless dilemma, tut he sx, tricated himself by saying to the jury, ' that the case had been so ably summed up by th counsel that bad preceded hun, that he felt it unneces sary to sild a word to the argument,' and he sat down, with ths big drops standing on bis fore head. We were laughed at some bv those who gathered to hear our maiden efforts. Th best of the joke waa, however, that friend Harry was several years in nnumg out thst no bad perpe .rated a good thing at my expense." ANDY JACKSON. In the neighborhood nf Charlotte, N. C, there lived, until within ths last two years, an aged lady, whose many recollections of early life were very interesting. One, we remember, afforded us great amusement Gates had been defeated, the shattered fragments of his army had been swept like tbe debris of a tempest past ber le. eluded home, her father end liMthers were all out under some partisan or leader, the Tories were forming a neclus of organisation about Waxhaw, and supposing this would attract ill attention of her relatives, and seeing a ymng man riding from that direction, she wa told by tier mother to learn the news from him. She was a buxom lass of sixteen summers, elucated in the freedom of the eountrv, and be. ing tolerabty assured uf her ability tj cup with any body, was nothing loth to go, and gave us the fullowing story of the meeting: Xhs lad seemed an honest well. meaning boy, but not mucu in tne way ot loons, no wa linn ana awkward, and biliou, and rode a grass fed colt that reeled about so, I wondered how in the world it earned him. " How do you do, sir! says I. " How do vou do. msmT" savs he. Savs I "Which way did you come frouif" "Icome from the Waxhawa." "Did you 'see or hear anytinug ot our people downtlioref "o. aaya he, "but there are some Tories about there, and we pons them down sometime." Thinks I, you look like a funny fellow to pop anybody uown, nut i aid not say so, 1 just asked mm it nere ars you going r -1 am going to I n cle McDowall's ; I've had the chills for a long limit anil I want tn .1.. ,1 n !. ... till I ui ar 1 1 And what is your name?" "My name is An. dy Jackson." The old lady had te the day of her death the appearance ol this young man so indelibly Im. pressed upon her mind, that she could' never re, elite his importance, and it always struck ber as excessively whimsical and ridiculous that such a looking customer could ever become President of these United States. Sh had the same djJIrcTjtfwUh respeot to Mr. Polk. She had known himVwhen a child, be would stay for months at her house and go to school with her children, and wsssatily outdone and so pat upon by other boys of bis age, tbst she could never form a high opinion uf his abili ties ; she always, from ths furcs of habit, called him little Jemmy, and we think never mentioned him in connection with th Presidency without feelings of irrepressible amusement Poor old ladr. she stood for eighteen Tears alone in ths world, hor children and grandchil dren all were dead, and none could hear her in. dulging in reminiscences of her early lit with, out a tens of how great a blessing it was to ber to have so rich a store of early mcinorios. ' , . ...... , 'i GREAT SILVER MINES DISCOVERED IN NEW MEXICO. A letter from New Mexico, in the St. Louis Republican, states that some time since a very ; rich uiin of silver wa discovered in the Sierras ! of Los Arganos, by a party of ragnbond Mexi can. Mr. Stevenson, an experienced .miner and a very wealthy man, from El Paso county, immediately purchased from the discoverers this mine, and having bad it tholrougly tested at the mint in Chihuahua, ha commenced working it on an exteneiv cal. Another mine has also been discovered by an eld miner, who old out to Mr. llendre (since killed at El Paso) and two Mexioau capitalist. The writer adds i , .As to the value of the discovery, no estimate can be pla?d npon it Many old miner have visited ths mine, and with one assent have pro-: nouncod it unequalled in Mexieoor in the world, Th vein commence hear tb foot uf the im mense Sierra of Lo Organo, on the tide of a Canon, called " La Oucva," and runs direct into the thickest part of the mountains, tint giving positive assurance that there can l no vihaui, tiiM, of metal, for from the summit te the bottom uf tlie mountain extends one solid cms of lead Hid silver. , Tbe principal vein is ever four acres ia width, while a great number, of ies width, branch out right and left To give you some idea of the. wealth of this metal,, eight pouuds of nrs from the surface yielded one dollar and over of silvor iu a little evidraia at ah furnace. her mora than a third of th' silvor wss lost: very vara ot depth tlict i dog display metal richer and richer. Ths work will b carried on by tho present owners on an immense scale, as il it evident they will not sell, having already been offered large sums of money for the mine. - -j j n , i QtrscK MxoicIXE.

T We have it stated to as, savs the P. An cor State of Maine, on the authority of Mr. Robert Si. phenson, th groat engineer, that a recent P. eovcry in telegraphing ha Been made whieh may work as great revolution in'tli world of letter and f commerce as has been already affected by th original application of electricity or eiectni.magnetism, to the purpose ot trie, graphic communication ; or, iu other words, the art of writing ut t distanct. To make ourselves understood It mar he prop er to say, that heretofore ths most soieotifio oh. servers of facts in electro-magnetism hav sup posed that there was a limit to the force or strength of the magnetic current upon any given circuit) and that however perfect might be the insulition of the submarine -wire, tho blower hock could not be sent across the Atlantic ocean., In this belief a project has been formed for con. structing aatib-msriue telegraph between Great nrltain and th I nited states by a cureuitous route, across th various "traits and channels lying between the intermediate islands of ths Northern Atlantic Ocean. It was proposed to commence this line st ths northorly part of Scot land, thence to the Orkneys, thence to Shetland and Faro Islands, thenos to Iceland, a distunes of tilhi three hundred miles ; thene to th shores of Greenland, thence across land te Da. vis s Strait theneo across said strait to th Labi rador shore, thotic.e by land to Quebec, eVi). Mr. Stephenson statin that a series of expert, mrnts had established the fact that by formings complete wire circuit that ia by two connected wires extended so as to return to the same Point of dopnrture, forming a comploto metallic circle, instead of using ons win connected with the ground, the galvanic current may be aent te any conceivable distane without bias or diminution of power. . Th supposed weakness of the cur. rent is to be attributed to its interruption by cross currents, which cross currsnts are overcome or avoided by tbe continuous wire circuit ' In this way, doubling the expeuse of the sub marine cable, making with it a complete nietalio circuit of double truck, by a return line, tb gal. vnnio current mar be tent without scnsibls tins of power front Loudon to Portland or New York, or at any rate, from Oalway to Cap line. it i Known, however, that tht principle or a nietalio circuit was one of th first idea of the telegraph ; but a subsequent discovery of th faot that on tin uf wire inserted in th earth made a complete circuit by this means alone, caused th orignal method to be laid aside, add finally abandoned. Ws cannot any longer doubt that th Oceanic Telegraph will be realised,' and that a line of wires will yea encircle tbe whole earth, bringing all part of it into instantaneous eommuniuaiiou with each other. It is imposei ble for any human foresight to estimate or predict even, the results of such a communication ; and we trust that the governments of the United States and Groat liritaiu will taks up the matter of an ooeanie line on a soale commensurate with th Impor. tanee providing such a number of distinct wires, enclosed in one cable, as will supply ths necessities of commerce and intercourse betwoen burop and America. -'8'xwts Aarxa xitoTns INitsd States. Santa Anna lately took a farewell of our Minister, Mr. Cimklin, who has been recalled, during which he said: - . " It is with deep regret that I witness th de partur of your Excellency, and I Imp you will express to your Government th sentiments man. ifested by the Mexican Executive; th good wiahes that animates us to draw close every day the inenaiy relations between Dotn nations, pari tieularly the prayers uttered for your prosperity, aud that of the American people." " A correspondent of the New Orleans Pica- yuns, however, maintains that notwithstanding this language, Santa Anna has a deadly hate for the Uoitid States, and would now gti to war with ut if he could. ' He is, however, afraid to move. He can rais neither troops nor revenue, lie has ths church against him. A powerful party, wait ing only for a leaner, is working fur his overthrow. But hs will, withal, adds the correspondent, malts no concession to the instances of the United States flovernmeiit, Then will be no ailjiistinentof th nsssitia boundary question, or any other that tb United State executive may have at bear. , On a recent Terr moonlight night, there wa a fellow in one of the streets of Washington.with a hard-burned brick in kit bat' Afraid of tht sombre. lookiug sidewalk, bs took th middle of the street where hs was t great pains to wslk round the shadows of th dormer windows and. chimney tops.
