of Columbia; the passports, had not been granted, and it was thought he was not in earnest in requesting them. He was accused of attempting to excite tumults iu the country, and in fact, letters from him had been intercepted, addressed to persons whom he was striving to excite to insurrection. The officer commanding the French squadron that had appeared off Vero Cruz, was in the city of Mexico, to seek redress for injuries inflicted upon French citizens in Mexico the letter, from which we derive our information, says that Bustamente bad informed him that the moment the government should be organized under his auspices, he would repair the wrongs complained of by the French government to the fullest extent, not only those but the complaints ofall the foreign governments; and the French commodore had determined to remain in the city of Mexico until Dustcn.cn was placed in offce. Col. Almonte, formerly Aid-de-Camp to SantaAnna, was daily inclose consultation with the officers of the government, and it was believed he had betrayed the seccets of his ancicn: patron. Mexico.-After our paper weut to press last night, news was received ia the city of an attack upon the United States vessels Natchez and Ciimax, by the Mexican schooner Bravo, aud the fort at the Brazos Santiago. Tlie Climax was severely injured, but being relieved by the Natchez, tucy sailed in company tilt they arrived off Matagorda, capturing iu the mean time the Mexican brig of war Privilegio, which has been scnta prize toIVusafiola. Whether war .government will consider ibis prize as a sufficient reuumeration for ihe injury and insult we cannot say: but if General Jackson was at the head of affairs Mill, we should, expect an immediate apology from the Mexican government, or a Hiding addition to the number of her external enemies. Until the matter is settled, however, that part of our navy on this station, owe it to themselves to drive Ihe Mexican vessel fiom the Cull". Our lla

Legislature, and, as a member, acquired a standing, for inttelligence, honesty, and tact, of which few others could boast. Upon his return , bis neighbors gave him a public dinner, and all parties agreed that he had been a faithful and efficient representative Some ten days since a young man from Virginia saw Lane in Carrolltoo, and recognised him as an old acquaintance whoso name was Mitchell. The fact was disclosed, but Lane denied that he was the man. The young man, however, persisted iu his statement,

aim lurther staled that Lane had absconded Irom' Vir-1 ginia ou account of being charged with forging pen-

Lane had asseJ for a Imchclor, but these men said he left a family in Virginia. The imposition being fairly proved, Mr. Lane bundled his clothes mounted his horse, and left the country. We hope that this circumstance may operate as a warning, not only to the people of Green und Calhoun
