appearance, and it is literally at length
filling more than nine columns of the Mil
If dgeville. Journal, in sniall type. The
public interest in thisv matter has greatly
abated, but having heretofore published
the Vice President's statement, we can
riot do otherwise than insert the rejoinder,
which we will do next week. Thcron
dtm Secretary handles Mr. Calhoun and
his prochein ami, Mrv McDuffie, with
gloves off. - Before however, ascribing a
bitter and urirelentingspiritto Mr. Craw
ford, let the reader bear in mind, that he
has sustained wrongs at the hands of the
Vice President of no ordinary character.
This may induce him to pardon if he can
not approve, the-indulgence of such acri
monious feeling,' ; 1

the part of -our Government, which will
no doubt however, be ratified : ', , ,

of this city, passenger in the. ship Formo

Rives to our Government; Among the
despatches is the Treaty lately concluded
with the French"? Government by our
Minister at Paris An article appeared
in the Journal du Havre of- 5th- July on ;
the subject of this treaty, which is not
only . preraat-Ure' and unauthorized, but in
correct in many of its details. We learn
by Mr. Draper, who, obtained his infor
mation from Mr. Rives, that the amount
of claims to be paid by France for spblia-
tions or American property, is tweniy-
nve mmions. oi .irancs, payaoie in six
equal yearly instalments, with interest at
the rate iit 4 per cent per annum, from
the date of the treaty being ratified by
our government, which interest will swell
he amount to about twenty-eight millions
five hundred thousand francs. ' '
Mr. Rives has, stipulated, on behalf of
our government, the payment ot one mil
lion five hundred thousand francs, m set
tlement of the Beaumarchais claims
That wines (whifeand red) shall be ad
mitted in our country on the fallowing
terms : ' '' ' '
.Wines in bottles pay 20 cent? in place of SO.
- in casks 10 15.
All other wines, now payil'ig 10 cents, shull be
ad'Tiitted Ht 6 cents dnty.
- The French Govef ument, on their part,
stipulate to relinquish all the Louisiana
C'aim ; That American long staple cotton
shall be admitted at 20 francks per 100
kit. (the same duty as short stapits pays,)
in plaqe of 40 francs, as now charged.
Ve have yet no :positiveinfbrmation

on the subiect, thoutrh we are all well
aware that much anxiety prevail- on thi
head. ' Mr. Draperjproceeds to Washing

In the Journal tics Debats of 9lh July,
we find an official ordiir frora M.iP J2r

the Anniversary of the 3 days. Toe first

the ground swell so great that it failed

From Poland we have no. news of im

oh the authority of the .Courier, that' a
treaty had been formed between Great
Britain and Fi ance, whereby the two
Governments have bound themselves to
an intercession with Russia in favor, of
the j Poles. The treaty, it is added,
was concluded about a month since."
The accounts from Warsaw stue.
that the defence which that city tan make
at. present, is of so powerful a decriptlon,
that thev have not the least fear of its be
ing taken by the Russians. It was

Major Lewis has" addressed a letter to
the Editor of ; the 44 Globe," in reply to
that part of Governor Branch's Expositi
on in which it is stated, that the Major
considered Mrs. 'Eaton an unsafe associ
ate for his daughter. In explanation of
this circumstance, Majtr Le wis says :
I will not slop to inqutrctby what
right a gentleman, and a man inf honor,
presumes Jo speak of a coi resplondehce,
considered by both parties to be confiden
tial without asking oriibtaihinl pcrmis-.
sion. Upon that point I leave Him to his
own reflections. As to the circumstances
alluded to in that, correspondence, I have
t say, that the gossip talcs oithis city
lad reached ine in Nashville, and not ha
ying the means to ascertain thei r truth or
falsehood, residing, as I did 800 miles
irom Washington, it was natural for. me
to desire information from some friend on
the subject, before I permitted my daugh
ter to reside iii the family. Majfir Euton,
under whose protection I placed her while
going to school in the city, at that time
boarded with Major 04Neal, the father of
Mrs. Eaton. 'V :

' Health of Wilmington. Our town
is uncommonly free from sickness, this
season ; and' has enjoyed, an almost en
tire exemption, from bilious fever. The
very few ca-es of that fever, which have
occurred, have exhibited the mildest as
pects. Wre doubt, whether any northern
town of equal population, has furnished,
in. the same sjace of time, a more scanty
list of sickness or of mortality' Indeed
the character of the diseases of the Sum
mer.and Fall months, has been gradually
ameliorating for the last 12 W 15 years ;
and the improved health of tne town, for
the last five years (since 1826) is a sub
ject, on which, we begin to felicitate our-
ticlyes, as on a, blessing, which we have
reason to believe, wiilbc permanent.

of information on the subject is valuable.

from Mahon, in a late letter to Mr. Skin
ner, and we hope the promised; informa
tion, will be circulated : I shall try
and send you a very simple mode of cul
tivating the silk worm, and preparing the
silk, adapted, in the most simple form to
the use of families.- I shall get it from a
poor, plain Mahoncse woman, who, for
her amusement, raises the worm, sepa
rates the silk from the cocoon,' spins ami
manufactures and sells it She showed
me several pounds of excellent sewing

Prince Czartowski has published two
proclamations, as President of the. Na
tional Government of Poland j they ap
pear in the Warsaw Gazette, of the.4n

people to join in the formation of the
landsfrum (local militia;) the latter ca!ls
on the -army to exert itself for glory and
its country, in the strugg.es . that await

The Emperor continues to fulminate
his LTkaes ag.iinst those djstricts of an
cient Poland which have risen. Pbdolia,
Volhynia, Grodno, Wilua, and Bialys

The fate of Giefgud's Corps continues to
be a vexed question, but the presumption
seems to be that he has effected his es
cape from the two powerful corps of Rus-.
sians which .had been sent to crush him,
and that he will be able yet to assist the
cause in the north of the kingdom. The
Russians, who, under Paskewitsch, were
said to have fallen back, are now . stated
to be again upon the advance to the Vis
tula ; and as the Poles will not shun
them, we must soon learn some important
hews from this intere-iting fheatr? of war.
The latest accounts from Warsaw, are
