"THE STANDARD AT FAULT. The Raleigh Standard, was very severe upon Mr. B.Dcta, because ho Toied agaiust the Reso lution to introduce Kosscrti to the Senate. In the Imagination of the Editor, it appeared, that Senator ws "undone ( lost to fame; clean gone Into disgrace and shame. The party arm was nerved to great violence of purpose, and the po litical cudgel was raised to the performance of the most terrific gyrations. The manner and the node indicated the triumphant sentiment: "Now Io fot.jon l"M Or in more common parlance, "Now I am down upon you like a duck u;ion a -.M.J juno-mig." gntlt was an infliction, "transcen ding all that Senator had seen or suffered," as Mr. Jefferson said about the attack of the Leopard on tbe Chespcake. : , ; ; But matters rose up to the vision of the Editor that would aeem to require necessary pause in the onslaught. Fifty Southern gentlemen were in tht tame category with Mr. Badger -members of itbe. House of Representatives and a oodly portion of them the political friends and ; coadjutors of the Standard. ' 1 Would, tlie Standard assail tho democracy 1 Ho,' Would tho Editor do justice to the patriot ism t,na truly American mi southern feeling of Mr, Bams, No. How then doei ha get over , tho dilemma! Why, by saying nothing about tbeyssentlal points of the subject his attention being partially engaged in an endless variety of v topics, not bearing on the one in question. : When a Resolution of a similar character came Bp in the House, it had to struggle three days for passage. - It Anally passed by 123 yeas to 64 nay. Only four members from tho Northern fiUtes voted against it, viz : Messrs. Appleton, of Mass., Barrere, of Ohio, Haven and Martin, of Jfew Tork. Of the Southern States, 3 from . South Carolina, voted atrainit it Nnrth Cn ml Inn 6 against it, only one member voting for it, Hon. t Mr.llngruan; Virginia, Hon. Messrs.

' ' MOVEMENTS OF KOSSUTH. rM, Kossuth was to leave Washington Citr oa jestcrday, for Annapolis; from thence to Harris-1 ' iwrgh and Pittsburg; and probably still farther1 . Tbo Democratic Association at Washington gave lim a dinner on Thursday last, on which occa .Jo1,e made a speech. i,v , '-!Vfr:.a --- 1 - i ' THE INDIANS AT WASHINGTON. On Thursday the Indian Delegation now at Tasbinnton, paid a visit to Kossuth. Ho inform i them that, like them, be was at a great distance IromtiU native lrid ; though, happily for them, , they ware not like hint in another respect tbey erniot ailei.'- In parting, ho presented each of ; bm with a medal as a memorial, and hoped that -- 41 would occasionally bring him back to their "re , collection with feelings of regard and Interest c warm and sincere as he really entertained for them.. These remarks being duly Interpreted to 4he Indians, they, ware received by them with ratiikation.' .j . , ; . i These Indiana were to leave for their homri on Sunday, , Ther) is another party of twenty-three, principally Omahas, who were expected in Wash ington yesterday, . Jt is not known what is the ob Ject of their visit. . ' . ' . , TERRITORY ,0F UTAH. -The President of lb United States has tram. ntltted it tfie House of Representative, in confor mlty to Resolution of that body, a Report of the Secretary of State, ; In regard to the territory of Utah, , The tateaentst respecting th dlsaffbctlon, fanatical JutoUinnce, jtnd open Trofanlty of the Governor aod people of Utah, are contradicted on at least a good autboiity as that on which tie charges wet made. Thero it a great deal of documentary matter, th whole of which w f resume would go to prove that both tho acr.uwr and the accused are iuor or lets to lilfirn'! which is very apt to fc the cut wken n 1 aud jkhntt each other. " POSITION OF MOROCCO. . . , Among the omitted items of the Foreign News by the Cambria, it an article relative to the posi tion of Morocco against the French. A letter from Gibraltar state that the Emperor of Moroc co had refused to ratify the treaty coucluded be tween the French Admiral Dubourdieu and, the Pasha of Tangier, and was marching towards the town at tbe bead of an army of 40,000 men. This alarming report had Induced the Spanish govern ment to receive oo board and relieve the Europe ana who might wish to quit Morocco. v 1 There is little doubt but Tangier and , the other towns along the coast will be sacked by tbe Bedouins,' the moment hosti litles are recommen ced in Germany.' ' ' ! FRENCH DEFINITION OF "RASCAL" It appears that the French Minister of the Inte rior considers those whe intended an insurrection in Paris, to be rascals forgetting that if some thousands of the Puris population deserve the epithet, bit master for his revolutionary move ment deserves the name of "great rascal," and they are only the small ones. In recommending the dissolution of the 5th le gion of the National Guards, that Minister says : "The Inflexible resolution which you have man ifested to deprive of every chance of success an insurrection in Paris, and no longer to permit that tome rascals (coqtiint) should decide the lot of thirty-five millions or souls, has induced ma to submit to you all the measures proper for attain- ing the end." MR. SECRETARY WALKER. We have several times alluded to the course of this gentleman iu England, who while there to ne gotiate a loan, appears to be quite open-hearted, inasmuch as he has given the people of the Uni ted States, individually and collectively, to the British; and has generated a hope and expecta tion there that our Govei nmct will right in alli ance with Great Britain to settlo tho ballancu of power in Europe. That our readers may know we do no injustieo to this political madman, we lay before them the following letter to tho Mayer of Southampton England. The letter itself explaius tho incidents which gave rise to it. 10, HLr Moom Stskkt, Piccawm.y, Dkcembsb 19, 1851. 8ia : I have roceived your kind letter of yester day, inviting me. in the name of tho Mayor of Southampton, and a numerous body of the mer chants and others connected with your port to a public dinner there, on such a day as may suit my convenience. In consequence of my short stay in England, and accumulated business, I havo been compell ed to decline similar requests from other points in your country, prior in date to yours. It is with extreme regret that I feel constrained to forego the pleasure of dining with tho Mayor and merchants of Southampton. There is no one in England for whom I entertain more respect and esteem than the Mayor of Southampton This feeling is general in America, and embraces your worthy, intelligent, liberal and patriotic citizens, from whom we have received so many marks of kindness and regard. It is quite true, as referred to by you. that, as a member of the American Cabinet, I was an advocate of that great steam communication which now so happily unites various points of your country with my own. It is a most benefi cial system, and 1 hope it is destined to great and successful enlargements. I thank you also lor t lie kind and cordial semi ments you have been pleased to express in regard to my country. It is most clearly tho interest and duty of England and America to encourage sod maintain -the most frieudlv relations. In some remarks heretofore made by meat your city I took occasion to express tho opinion that a neighboring Republic, so called, based upon half a million ol bayonets and a state oi xjege, would soon be merged in absolute or imperial power. Those predictions arc already fulfilled ; and France is now passing into a Government more military and despotic than any that prevails iu Europe, be cause it is pnrcly tho Government of the army and of a single chief. Already this fearful change is hailed with delipht by all the despotic Powers, and especially by Russia, Austria, and Naples. The Continent has become despotic, except a few remaining points, which are already menaced, and where the light of liberty it is t ared, mill soon be extinguished. These islands alone remain to breast this fury of despotic powwr, and already it Is intimated that it may become nocesury to re establish against England the continental system of the first Napoleon. The principle of the des potic Powers will be this, that England must re fuse an asylum to the exiled victims of continen tal oppression, and that sho must abandon the libeity of speech and of tho press. The question, I fear, will soon be propounded to England ; Will you relinquish ail the principles of free Govern ment, and sink quietly into the abyss of despo tism 1 Or will you manfully resist, and if so, when and how, and whero, are you willing to be gin the resistance 1 Will you wait until every free Government is overthrown on the Continent 1 Or, when tho principle of armed intervention from abroad anuounces Us determination to sub vert these Governments, w ill you then interfere for your own security, and whilst yet yon may have friends and allies upon the Continent 1 Should Iho latter bo your wise and patriotic re solve, and should you, in that event, desire tho co-operation of my country, it will be given by tho Government, and sustained oy tne people with seal and unanimity. I know nothing, sum ike day t1 the Crusades, that could excite in America a foelint; so deep, universal, and enthusiastic, or whicli would call out so many miliums, if necessary, of my country men, as amnvitaliim from you to t""r children in America to nirht tnnether the tnsl ureal tnumpkant bat- tie for the liberties of man. It would be a certain and easv victory, acuievea cnieny uy me navai forces of England and America ; and, succeeding this victory, there would then be enduring pcaco and extended commerce. Indeed. I doubt not that if England and Ameri ca would inform the continental despot that they must not intervene beyond their own limits to overthrow "other Governments, merely because they were free, that such an annunciation would arrest their march in 1851. as it did in 1820, and accomplish the same result without tho neces sity of war or bloodshed. lie blessed tonrescnt to tne Mayor, ana to mo i ... . a .t . worthy merchants tna cmr.ens oi Duuiiianipuin who have united in this invitation, my most sin cere thanks, and accept for yourself, my dear sir, renewed assurances of my regard and esteem.

Nothing in the bill refer to a "per annum,", and tbV law it so construed by eminent legal talent as to oblige the treasury to pay the Governor his $10,000 an nually, and the other in the aame proportion, if those officer insist upon it. - The Legislature cannot stop them, because the constitution pro rides no officer's salary shall be reduced during his term of office. -i Our Washington correspondent, writing under date of the 6th Inst., states tbat on Monday last our Senator, the Hon. A. P. Butler, presented, in the U. S. Senate, the memorial of the Chamber of Commerce of the city, praying for the erection of a light bouse in this harbor. Our correspondent, has no doubt, he says, that Congress, at the pres ent session, will make liberal appropriation! for improvement of rivers and harbors, and that the deepening of the channel in this harbor will doubt less bo provided for. He also states that great sensation had been produced in Washington by the news that Austria had assumed an attitude un friendly to Great Britain. He thinks that the ru mor is, perhaps,, only in anticiption of what will occur. Char. Covr. Joseph R. Guyton, J. B. Kennedy, John Burnett, Joseph King, Enoch Farrow, Thos. H.

The Christiana rioters aro the most fortunate fellows in the world. Never was there tuch a succession of accidents as they have had the ben efit of. The Baltimore Sun says : Oa Friday, nine of the colored prisoners, charg ed with' treason against the United States, alleg ed to have grown out of the Christiana riot, were discharged from the custody of the keeper of the Lancaster county prison. They had previously beep-delivered by tho United States district at torney to the authorities of the above county, and, there being no evidence against them, they were liberated from confinement. One of them wat immediately taken into custody again, on the charge of being a fugitive slave from Virginia. The claimant and the officer took him to a tavern at Penningtonvillo, where during tho night the alleged fugitive, although handcuffed, effected his escape. Another statement is, that the alleged fugi tive's name is Williams, and that on his arrest the citizens became much excited against officer Kline, who took him into custody. It is said a warrant was issued against Kline for perjury, which so frightened him that ho hurried off with the claimant aud tho fugitive to Punnington ville, where they locked thomselves up in a room, Here they all fell asleep, except Williams, who embraced the opportunity to make his escape.
