In a recent number of tbe "Expositor," Amos Kendall, late Postmastcr-GenerM, gives a narration of so much of his life as embraces his private relations with the lion. Henry Clay "arid his fimily. We extract tin; following touching description of a fam ily scene: On the7th day of February, 1814, the family of Deacon Zebedee Kendall, of Dun stable Massachusetts, were all collected to gether under the paternal roof, for the first and last time. It consisted of the father and mother, then entering upon a green old age, six sons and one daugi tcr, the survivors of twelve children, the oldest of whom had left home, before the youngcswasjMnu'hjc of the sons had wives with them, and a fourth his affianced bride. We dined to gether, my father ssked a blessing-from a-borve-fofbre meal", ami rcturfiihg thanks af terwards as was his custom. After dinner h addressed us in reference to this, our first general meeting, which he anticipated would be our last, and in broken accents endeavor ed to impress more deeply on our m'nds tho-e moral and religious principles and pre cepts which, aided by the best of mothers, he had inculcated upon us from our earliest infancy. Our mother attempted to speak, but emotion choked her utterance. Our fa ther resumed, and addressing himself to me, said they would probably see me no more in this world, and, as his last injunction, charg ed me to be honest in my profession, deal jusdy in all my transactions with my fellow men, and, having done my best in this world, to rely for happiness hereafter on faith in the merits of a Savior, There were no diy eyes in the company. Some remarks of a simi lar character were made by one of my bro thers, when there was silence interrupted on ly by sobs. My own heart was too full to utter word. After a pause long enough to produce a composure, we sung together an appropiiate hymn-for we had all been taught in family worship to raise our voices in praise to our Maker. Our father then ad dressed the Ruler of the Universe in a fer vent prayer, which reached the Eternal Throne, if ever the sincere and heartfelt as pirations of a mortal did. " . 1 tNOTIIER NATIONAL DIFFICULTY. France has assumed a serious tone to wards Texas and demands reparation for an insult offered th King through his late Minrster to the" young 'Republic. This in sult was a personal indignity, in fashionable parlance a "threshing" iu the vulgar in nicted upon M. d Saligny, the French Min ister lo the Texian Court, by a Mr. Bullock, a citizen of Austin, late of Granville eounty, N. C. We published an account of this afTair when it occurred. As well as we recollect, the Minister, who had boarded with Bullock and had some difficulty with him, took an adjoining house to his. From this contiguity, many lilUe e- ventsoecutred that tendtdto,kee j fan tliD eiufero of Jwefiir btfiweea tbem. Tht ft5al the ovsrt set the tragedy we may say, that brought the belligerent-relations to a crisis, " may be " slated thus: a family of youog porkers, belonging to Bullock, made an incursion into the garden of the Minister, and devastated several beds of fine vegeta bles. In the midst of their destructive pro gress, thfr Minister's gardener made a des cent upon them, and, enraged at the manner in which the fruits of- his labors had been destroyed, speared each, juvenile grunter with a pitch fork, and hurled him over die partition wall into his owner's premises. This wholesale slaughter of the little squeal ers that had so often 'pigged together iillhc same) truckle' bed," put. Mr. Bullock into a towering passion, and he took measures for chastising their murderer. M. de Saligny made his entrance' iit (his interesting point of die drama, and endeavoring to protect his man, himself became the object of assault, and retired with a black eye, a phlebotomis ed nose. &c. A e. . M. de Saligny demanded of the 'fexhn Govejrfimefct the fmme'diate and revere pun? ishment of Mr. Btilhwk, on the ground that he had insulted and outraged the honor and dignity of Franco. The government res ponded that Mr. Bollock eould not be pun-, tsbed until he was tried ' and Cm ml guilty die constitution guaranteeing ia every eiti aen trial by jury. With this M. de Saligny would not be satisfied nothing short of the summary and condign punishment of the of fender would suflioe. The government " swered decidedly that this could not be done, and the worthy minister demanded his pass ports and returned to France. We have heard nothing further of thia .W tloixa! difficulty until Ltely. A New Or- mm Powerful in moral, in intellectual, and ia physical reaourcea the land of our tires, and the - 1 u. RALEIGH S. C. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30, 1842. leans papr-r of a few days title has a trans- lation of a correspondence between M. Gui- zot, Prime Minister of France, and the Tex an Charge d'Aflhires at Paris. The French Minister represents the King as having been insulted through the indignity inflicl.-d upon lus. Minister, and demands reparation tak ing occasion at the same time lo upbraid Texas for her failtue to vindicate the dignity of France, who was first to recognise her in dependence. Mr. Mclntoah, the Texan Ambassador, regrets the view of the matter taken by M. Uuizot, and promises to refer it to hi gov ernmeut for further instructions. This correspondence occurred last fall we suppose the affair is still unsettled. Tex as is likely to get into difficulty with La Belle France, unless she makes the amende honorable. If shednesnot, and there should be an appeal to the ultima ratio re gum, porkers will' rise in the scale of animals, and be assigned a prominent position in history. i?icA. Comp. DARING FORGERY. On Tuesday of List week, a stranger of rather genteel appearance, calling himself Shrpptrd, arrived in this town, in the west ern stage. He stopped at the Washington Hotel, and represented himself as from Monlgomeiy, Ala., and as wishing to pur chase negroes: after some inquiry, however, he pretended that he found the price of ne groes too high, and that he had concluded to go farther north to make hif intended pur chases. On Wednesday, of the same week he went lo the Branch of the Bank of the Sute in this place and asked Mr.. Roberts, the Cashier, if he would give hint a certifi cate of deposit Jor jfojrjixjtteW Cashier staiecF "to Tutu that the amount wat smaller wan wa xustdmary on which to is. me cfililicate of deposite; but, uponShep pcrd's stating that he wished to make a re mittance of that amount to a gendeman in Wilmington, the Cashiei, without tho least suspicion of his intention, offered him a check on the Branch of the Bank of the State at Wilmington. This he readily ac cepted, and gave for the check seven half eagles and two half dollar pieces in silver. Early on Friday morning Shepperd look the H'titern stage. Nothing further was heard or thought of the check, until the re ceipt, by last Tuesday's mail, bv Mr. Ro berts, of the notice of the receipt and pay ment by the Cashier of the Branch of ihef II i rib nf t tin Utnt. w ;i ; C - -I 1. t Bank of the State at Wilminirton of a check for six TiiorsaXD doixaRs, drawn by Mr. Roberts, in favor of John Wood, endorsed by him, "Pay to Nathan Shepperd," and by him endorsed, "N. Shepperd." This was no doubt the same check, with the ex ception of this tinall change from thirty-six to six thousand dollars, which Mr. Roberts had sold to the villain in Question. The scoundrel probably committed the forgery here. We learn that he purchased a bottle of blue ink at a drug store in town, of the same kind as that with which the check was written, soon after getting it. What metamorphosis this swindling ras cal may have made in hit personal appear ance before this time, we pretend not to .guest; but as it may aid in leading to an ar rest of the perpetrator of a crime hitherto almost unknown in this community, we will briefly describe him as he appeared here. no is auout S3 years ol age, rather below the ordinary height, say about five feet six inch es, rather thick set, and tayt he weight 140 lbs. thtt we thould judge to be about hit weight. He had while here a large pair of w lusters, approachinir a sandr colour, hit ureas wat genteel, and he appeared to be a man ol easy address and bland, conciliatory manners, well calculated to impress favoura bly a-stranger, ile had a full head of long, bushy hair, a remarkably short neck, with ana white set of teeth, which he fre quently diiplayed by a pleasant mile' his walk-was rt with his toei Lneither, iMltM4..lJUlwanLnpr tne tUrecUon he took (rem Wttmington, hav ing heard nothing farther from him since he received the amount of the check.

Some time after the man had left the Bank arc-examination ef the check convinced the officer that all was not right about it, and aa the Charleaton t'ea mer on which he had taken passage had been detained several huura beyond her regular starling time, it was resolved to get the money back if possible. -- The President ef the Btnk accordingly railed open the individual, and mentioned to him that a the amount drawn by the Nr where Branch wa unusually large, he would piefrr liav'mj the money returned Until advire could be received from New Hern, The tnn I'a'ol btrk the money ttithiittt iletnRi, ami tuuk the slefacrd check ajing he would proceed on ti Charleston bat would return again by the time the gtnuineneis of the thee k could be ascertained. The Cashier of ihe Branrh at Newbern waa itutntilistely kdviaed of the circa in stance, and replies that lie had ihswtt a short time previously on the Branch here, on the application of a stranger, for thirty six dollara, which, at it now appears, was altered to $ix ikoutand dlla,r. The al teration wat remarkably well done. JToar or five days ago the check made its appearance here again, being set on by broker at Augusta to hit correspondent for collection, but how it Was disposed of at Augusta it not at yet known.

During the time that intervened ffom that vtait to presentation of thejvheck he was in New- bern. He is a man apparently thirty yeartold, five feet seven or eight inches high, of genteel dress, and address, p'easant, in telligent countenance, rather dark, curly hair, with full brownish whiskers. .

The following case of Habtm Corvut under the Bankrupt .Law waa disposed of ne oiner uay ty judge rotter, the Uiatnct Judge ef the United States. Nathan Siket filed his petition in Bankruptcy on the 7th of February, and en the Tin of March, after tegular publication, he wae decreed by the Ourt to be a Bankrupt. On the 15lh February, Tim. H.

But their confidence had been misplaced. It had pleased Pro vidence to take font ua the illustrious Htrriaon a calamity which filled the Na tion with morning hit high honors devol ved upon Mr. Tyler, and he left for him the dying iujuaction, that "he thould carry out the true principle of the Government."
