Taylor, the Administration proposes an experi ment ot a more, hazardous nature, and one which Jin any eveiU must cost the lives of some of the most distinguished officers in the service, to say nothing of tie loss of ships and munitions of war. In plain tejrms, they propose to attack Ve'ra Cruz, and to take the Castle of San Juan de.Ul- loa. With this view, an order has been issued from the! Navy Department for a council of 20 of the most experienced captains to assemble in I Washington Tuesday next, to devise measures, and to determine upon the plan of operations. From what I have been able to gather, it seems the conclusion is foregone, and the council will 'be required, not to discuss the policy of the movement, but to furnish practical suggestions for carrying it out. It is well known to the Go vernment that the opinion of some of the oldest and most scientific officers is decidedly adverse to this undertaking, and that it has been respect. fully, but firmly urged, with the purpose of pre senting a discomfiture, which, under the circum stances, wpuld be any thing but creditable to our arms, j Since, however, it may be regarded as determined upon, I trust the best ability and !skill whicji the country can furnish will be call ed into the) deliberations. I am informed Col. Totten, ofithe Engineer Department, has in his possession a perfect plan ot the fortress and of the caliber and arrangement of its gunnery. Ought he not to be consulted on an occasion like this, or is the Administration prepared to rush rashly into an experiment which in the best as pect presents the most serious obstacles, and hardly eqjial chances of success?

Intelligencer of the 18th, containing a speech by oar most worthy Representative, Hon. 'D. M.; Barringer. made in the House of Representatives July 1st., on the subject of ths Tariff, It is very plain and to the point. We regret it came to us rather late for publication this week. It shall appear in our next, and we commend it to the perusal ofj all. Mr. Barringer seldom troubles Congress or the world with a speech, and never, unless he has something to say. He is esteemed as one of the! most efficient la boring men of t the body of which he is a member. Intent upon jsetvingLis constit uents and the Country, he is not one of those who seem to think the best way to do it, is to be always speechifying. But when it is necessary, he is always -ready and able to stand up in the defence ofhis own, and the principles and interest of those whom he represents. OCT3 Congress has agreed to adjourn on the; 10th of August. It will "then have been in session a little over, eight months a; long time about 244 days. At 68 per diem, each member will receive about 81,952, besides their mileage. Have they earned it ? This is a Locofoco' Congress be it remembered. What have they done what great measure of interest to ithe Country have they consummated T Why, they have got us into a war with Mexico, rashly, and unnecessarily. They have set tled the Oregon Question, by giving away, according to their oxen tcords, nearly one half of a Territory, which, according to their otrn words again, belonged exclusive to the United States. This question, had it been let alone, would, in the course of a feiv years, have settled itself to much better advantage. What else, of great National interest have they done ? No thing, as yet ; but they are about reduc ing the Tariff to raise more revenue to This is a funny business tolook at and talk about, but when it is done the Nation will be made to stagger she will groan under the op eration, They are also about to re-estab lish that abominable system, the Subtrea sury;; andr to cap the Whole, they are go ing to rob the Old States of their interest in the public lands, and thus curtail their means of getting out of debt, (such as are in debt,) and deprive them of ia fund as justly thcir as ifthey held a title in fee tatives, to gr; I lie Lands, fix d the State of T " recreant to L r . independence : ence of thci depart men j cf ; tain the ir.tcrcr Who were 'the v Carolina?
