Tbe President is desirous; of knowing, whether such i mission would be agreeable to her Majesty's Goternmenf, and: whether! it would, in their opinion, be the mans of hastening or facilitating the final ad justment bt the Controversy. That it woald al ways be agreeable to her Majesty's Government to receive any persun enjoying the cunfidnnce of the Priasident, abd sent hither to treat of matters afiectibg khe ihtereei of both cuuntries; tbe nnf dersig6e4 is persuaded; that tbe Government of the united, ptaies cannot possibly doubt ; but her Majesty's Government do not-ee ihat in the present stale bf Ibe j negotiation such a mission could be likerv to hasten or to facilii&te the ad- jusimeht of the controversy.

An d " most of these projects, ur ged , under; the plausible) pretext of benefiting the poor settler, have stimulated specula- tion, and tended loVggrandize tfiepecula tbr to the prejudice both of th honest emi grant and the People of the United States, I have felt Jl to be my dutf to oppose these projects; and it is a deplorable evidence of the loose morality which prevails in respect to the public property, that I have been (!e nounced and calumniated for my endeavors to protect and. preserve it for the benefit of all the.

BRANCH MINTS. , Mr. Montgomery, a Loco Foco member of Congress from this State, takes unusual pains, in a lecent publication, to gull the people respecting branch minis In his Circular he expresses surprise that some member of Congress had spoken oi those branches as useless, or perhaps worse than useless, and expresses more surprise that our excellent Governor had had the hardi hood to tell the truth, and say that we had a Qbranch Mint without3 coin.' , In his 'talk,r to the dear people, Mr. Montgom ery, tells them as a triumphant refutation' of all lhat Gov Dudley and others may say of or against branch Mints, that "in 1838 there were coined at the JIHnfs, $1. 206.540 consisting of 15,780,31 1 pieces." but he has purposely omitted the enumer ation and value of ihe portions of this a mount that were coined at the several mints respectively. This is like the lea-, ders of his pariv, and a geheuine sample of tne principles by which they are actua led I Why did this wool dyed democrat tail to tell the penpie whom he was endea voring to deceive, that of the nbove sum only $291,025 were coined at the BratHi es, -ind that'the coinage of this. afmrJ sum cost the people about, $20,000 tttore than the cost of roining ihe remaining 3 915, 505 at the principal Mint in Philadelphia did ?

As a great number of persons are daily making inquires as to tbe proper period for planting cuttings of this favorite iree; we have solicited and obtained from a first rate source, the following advice on the subject The experience of past years has shown that plantations of cuttings made very ear. ly seldom succeed, as the wet and chilly weather which so often intervenes -during April and the first days of May, are apt to canse them to decay, and the- bark to be come slippery, which invariable destroys their vitality. One plantation made ori Long Island, during the month of April hi the past year, and which contained 200,,- 000 cuttings, was sa severely affected by the variableness of the weather, 'that but II 000 survived. It seems aecessary.there fore, lhat we should await the period wbei the weather is regularly warm, ,and the ground settled and free from the fiicklenen of our spring climnte say until about the middle f May Trees and cuttings may in fact be salely planted during the whoh month of June and one of j the' fines, fields of the Miilticaulis that grew the last year was planted on the 14th June. Thi consisted of cuttings which attained the height of 3 to 6 feet. uV: Y. Star.
