THE Board ol Managers of the Wash' in-rton National Monumental Society invite DESIGNS for this structure, inten ded as a memorial of a NATION'S GRATITUDE. It would be to fetter genius, lo prescribe any limits to the exercise of its powers, wh'ch should, however, in this case, har moniously blend durability, simplicity and grandeur. Although it is impracticable at present to estimate the extent of the con tiibutions that may be mnde, the Designs may be predicated on an expenditure of not less than one million f dollars- The Board of Makers will not offend American genius so nuch as to offer, in this instance, a pecuniary reward. The artist, whose Design shall be adopted, will feel amply remunerated; and all the De signs will be bound and carefully preserved to which end, it is requested that they be sketched, as near as may be. on paper of a uniform size, of the dimensions of sixteen by twenty-t wo inches.

One of the best informed men of that State, wrote to a friend here a few days since, "Beyond all question Pennsylvania is for Van Buren."

Tin House of Assembly, after an ex tended and exciting debate, ha tdopted an answer to the King"' reply to the address of last ses sion, which brings the difficulties between the popular and conser vative branches of the Govern ment to a crisis. The address does not allow the Minister's as sumption that their proceedings, in the last session, arose Irom misapprehension, but persists in all former demands, and in the re solution to withhold all supplies, and to cease the exercise of all legislature functions, uutil those demands are granted. Among these demands are some to which the parent Government can never assent, at least not until the Con stitution of that Government shall have undergone a radical change. Of course Lord Gosford has no other alternative but lo dissolve the Parliament- The Quebec Mercury adds of the answer of the House: "It clearly shows that no good can result from the authorities in Downing street continuing lo bandy words with these agitators; they must art vigorously and promptly, for greater evils will arise from following a system of "insinuations, parley, and base truce," than from a manly resist- ance lo the revolutionary spirit which is now arrayed against the Government and Constitution as it at present exists. The address concludes with some favorable ex pression towards the Governor, personally, whirh his excellency can hardly receive as a compli ment, coming, as they do, at the rail of a tirade against the meas- tires which bis Lordships friends 1 have adopted in regard to this colony." The Montreal Courier of Mon day, says: The Crisis may now, therefore, be said to have arrived. We are glad of it, and would call upon all who dissent from the party pro ceedings of the House of Assem bly, and those w he scorn to be the slaves of a national faction, to terest. Something must be done. Russia and the Caucasus. The people of Caucasus to the j number of 60,000 are moving a- gainst the Kussmns. I he popu- btton number 600,000 and 80,- 000 for an adverse force to a pow- er so much detested can Hardly be overrated. The tribes of Dag- bastan. and Sohircuam, and the inhabitants of Miugrelia, Imerilia and Georgia are more anxious to declare their hostile feelings to wards the Russians than they are to conceal them. In the mean time Russia cannot depend upon her own soldiers. They wait but an opportunity to declare our hos tility. From a late number of the German Courier, we are led to anticipate a revolution among the Russians, inasmuch as an im mense body of the Caucasus have combined against them. To sub due the Circassians impossible in their primeval forests and defiles; and extermination is the only war fare Russia can hope to use suc cessfully against such a foe. Rus sia, however, still hopes to put down this and all such combina tions in the almost undivided hos tility which one tribe bears against another. While they hale Rus sia they despise each other, and here Russia expects to continue her triumph, over a powerful but divided foe. Suicide. A letter from the Clarmont (N. H.) Eagle, states that the Honorable William C. J rvis, late speaker of the Massa chusetts House of Representatives, committed suicide at Wethers field, Vt. while iu a state of men ul derangement, by shooting him self through the heart with a pis ol.
