TUB STAR Kalclsh, January 88, 183C, (Tj-Several editorial articles, communications, advertisement, &c are unavoidably crowded out of to-day 'a paper. We hope to find room for them in our next. Among the interesting documents which we intend to spread before our reader then, are Mr. Calhoun's able speech on the "special mesafrc," the mild and concil iatory letter of the Dukede Broglie, French Mi nister of Foreign A flairs, written to open' the way to a frank and friendly adjustment of . the indemnity question, but which the President declined taking cognizance of, snd passed over in silence in his annual messaprc and the do- answer taMr..

We pUblUh thi week the "special meaaage,' transmitted to both Houses of Cotigrcsa, by the President of the United States, on the subject of oup French-relation. We have not space, if we had the disposition.-for any extended comment-,. . We ahall next week publpdi the' speech of Mr. Ctinofs',- whiehaentaina a clear and powerful review of the history of the nego tiation, ami or tne blunders, to give Iheni no harslier naino, by w luch We have been brought to the brink of s war-i-i war with ouf firrdent friemTand about we were going to ay $ 5,000,0(JO but no, about a matter of etiquotto between ou President and Louis Philippe. " We still think it the duty of Congrea to seek to preserve peare, by all honorable means, and this, too, whether it pleases or displease the Executive, It ia a new doctrine to us, that it is any exhibition of want of national feeling, or attachment to our Government, to examine with freedom the conduct of the President, snd to expose hi want of prudence and judgment in manatring thi negotiation.' " The Constitution confer on Ctngreet the power to declare war; and before they bring the calamities which necessarily attend it on the peo ple of thi country, they quglit to lie well satis fied that the honor or interests of tho natitn im perioualy demand it. , ' - - We confess we cannot see how our honor is involved in the matter. ' France has acknow ledged that ahe owes us, and it it a violation of her engagement not to pay it. Suppose one man owes another S debt, acViiovvleilgcs it, but refutes, on some pretence, to pay it. I the honor of the creditor involved in enforcing its paymenj! Suppose he wa perfectly certain, if be instituted a suit, that he would low his debt, and incur cost to ten time its amount: would it not look exceedingly foolish in him to com mence it? Thi seem to u to be our situation in relation t Ftanee, - If it were a question of national honor question involving, as the President seem to intimate, our existence a an independent Government, then that honor and that independence, like those of an Individual, should lie assorted and maintained at every ba- xard.

I he election will go to the House ot Keprcsen UUvc. Ihe old gentleman of the Lnquirer lias a (landing dish upon this subject. He is horribly afraid of an election by the I louse. How did 4t happen that Mr. ItiU'hio and the caucus partyjjiersisted . in puchin J .ihejjretcjji. sToiitf of Mr.; Crawford, when . t''?1'0 . was jio chance of bis election? Where was hi horror of an "election "by tlie " House "then? " Is Mr. Ritchie afraid of an election of Vice President by tbe Senate! Why did ho and hi party nominate Judge Smith the other day! Answer us that Dutif these gentlemen .really, look upon an election by the House aa such a calamity, (and we eon leva we should infinitely pref;r an elec- tion by the electoral colleges,) let thom with-1 draw Mr. Van Buren and support Judge White We presume the judge is as able, aa honest, and aa patriotic a statesman aa he wa when Mr. Ritchie bestowed upon him such high en comium. . Judge White was first in the field. He waa nominated both in Tenneseee and Ala bama before the ouly contingency happened, which could, if we are to believe him, have brought out Van Buren. The charge of divid ing the party and throwing the election into the House, applies with as much br greater foice to Van Buren a to Judge White. w e are confident a largo majority ol tne o- riginal Jackson party, not perhaps of that squad which joined after the battle wa fought and victory wa almost perching on our stand' ard, support Judge White. Join with us and etcctliinu Mleis nearer the principle you pro- t .i s- i, - was iuan v an xjuren. - He never voted to erect toll gates on the Cumberland road, he never voted for the tariff, he never voted for the Missouri restrictions, nor gave countenance to those who did. True he is not endorsed by the Steam Caucus. But a long life of unspotted integrity; a vigorous mind, and plain republican habit and feelings, re quire no such factitious aid. 1 he people have brought him forward. . He ha had the bestow al of no oflice nor honor to buy support. No greedy band of adventurer have rallied under his banner. . But the atuxdy farmer, ths indus trious mechanic, tne honest yeoman, tb real bone and muscle of tlie country, .who ask no thing, and want nothing but an honest admin ist ration of the government, have presented hi claim. Tho proposition of Mr. Ritchie and hia sat ellites amount to this: "We will first get up little village meetings, get the post master,' the mail contractor, and a few other to appoint del man agreed upon. . W'e will call thi the re publican nomination. Knowing" the" people dislike election by the House, we will, by din ning it constantly in their ears, frighten them lntoooT THnks, and Thus bjnt "sort ef hocus ptv eus elect our man," Now, in sober serious ness, we ak tlie people if we must take one of the two alternatives, which- they prefer, an elec tion by, the House of Representatives, compos ed of men of their own choice and responsible Ltp them, pt an election jy the Rucker ancua. for, if no person is to run,, if every candidate 1 to retire te make, room for their nominee; It will to all intent and purposes, be their elec tion. We deprecate both, wc-are sincerely de sirous for the people to make an election! but ef the two, we decidedly - prefer an election by the House, to an election br band of office holder. We never think of their doing with out being reminded of the degenerate day of Home, when the rratonun band set up the im perial purple of the empire to the highest bidder. , The Pnetorian band of the Union, tlie office holders and expectants have set UP the Presidency and knocked ft down to him whom they think will distribute the apoil most liberally, or, in other word, to the highest bid der, and we are called on to ratify their doing, a a lea evil than the possibility of an election by tne people representatives. . Amazing mod esty! marvellous diffidence. THE SENATE OF THE U. STATES. Every day developes tbe nefarious conspiracy. which some of tliesatellites of tlie President and of Martin Van Buren, have formed afrainst litis branch of the Government. Finding that it can neither be awed nor seduced from the per formance ot it dune to the constitution and the country, an attempt is made to excite the distrust and odium of th people, by represent ing it as an aristocracy, regardless of the public interests, and wholly irresponsible Jto public opinion, disregarding all the lesson of histo ry and experience, they pretend to apprehend more danger to tho-public liberties from the rVnat than from any other department of the Government, notwithstanding, loo, tbe acts and pretension of the Executive, acts i pretension which the King of Great Britain could not do and lay claim to, without hazarding his crown.

Such vapouring, may do in an electioneering hnranguer but to baruttcred In the Congress of the" Lr. States, it sound very ridiculously. What a sapient statesman and discreet lawgiver, to talk of meeting the co-or dinate branch of the Government in the rotunda! What an edifying spectacle and eloquent com mentary upon free constitutional governments! The honorable gentleman further say, it is time for tho people to essay their atrerjth, to bring the refractory Senator toobedience. What does he mean! Is it that they should repair to Washington and kick them from the 8enate chamber? or that the "ouly true repre sentative of thtr"dKr(racyribuTd ail lboriztv the "only direct representative of the American people," Cromwell like, to drive them from the Senate chamber, and lock it up? ' ! JUDGE GASTON'S ADDRESS. ! In snot her part ef this poper; will be fiitmd extract from tbia oration.

The re marka which theJudge make upon " what is popularly termed "Lyncb's law," are admirable. N regular government can long exist, indeed tho regular administration of justice may be said already to have ceased, when any individ uals, however respectable, aball contemn iu rules, and make themselves, of their own au thority, its avongers.
