'Not Caesar's wea but that of Rome.'
THURSDAY AUGUST 20, 184G. GrThe Louisville Journal after giving the result of the lata elections in this county for the Legislature says "In the next legislature of Indiana, the terms, proposed by the last General Assembly to the bond holders for the completion of the Canal to Evansville, will be finally acted on, and the payment of the debt of Indiana is involved ia these terms. The election turned upon this important question, very little or no re gard being had to politics. The gentlemen returned (Dr. YY. II. Slockwell and Chas. I. Battel!,) are strong advocates for completing tbe canal, and understand the subject in all its bearings, having given much of their time and attention to it. We are informed that tbey are both men of superior talents and fine literary attainments, which, along with their gentlemanly demeanor and private worthy will entitle them to a decided influence ia any legislative body." Navigation of the Columbia.' The reader will find on our first page the Proclamation of the President communicating the Oregon Treaty recently ratified by the United States and Great Britain. The impression still continues to prevail in England that the treaty secures to that country the free navigation of the Columbia. The London Times is plain and explicit. That journal says: "It has been erroneously asserted by some of the American papers, and by one of our cotemporaries in this country, that
the right of the navigation of the Columbia, conceded to us, is temporary and limited to the duration of the Hudson Bay Company's
clia ter. This statement is unfounded; the
navigation ot the Columbia is secured to the
the existence of that Company under the charter of Charles II. is itself unlimited." Our readers will perceive on reading the treaty that it makes no mention of any term of years, . .
Ship Susquehanna and the Tariff. Tbe packet ship Susquehanna, Capt Turley at Philadelphia on Wednesday from Liverpool, with a full and valuable cargo of merchandize consigned to H. &. A. Cope. It is the intention says the Eagle, not to enter
her manifest at the Custom House, until
President Polk signs M'May's British Tariff
Bill, when her goods will be immediately etoled, tbe duty upon which will not be paid
until the bill goes into operation!
Thus, it will be seen, the revenue arising
from the Goverment, already begins to fail. . i The JFkee Trade Poncr. The Harris-
burg Democratic Union says, if the free tfa
ders should succeed in breaking up the man
ufacturers of 16 leading articles of consump
tion in the country, import the three hundred
thirty-one millions of dollars worth now made
at home, what do they propose to pay this
enormous amount with? If in corn at 20
cents a bushel, as their great organ intimated some time ago, it will take sixteen hundred and fifty five millions of bushels, four times the prodcut of the whole Union. If in flour at $4 a barrel, it will take eighty-four mill ions of barrels, four times the amount produced in the U. States.
THE FIRST FRUITS TARIFF oY 184G.
The Nets York Evening Post says that
the day after the receipt of the news of the
new Tariff at Boston, the largo manufacturers put down the price of goods from 5 to
10 per cent., and the Lowell agents declared
that they did not fear foreign competition under the new Tariff.
It is the laborers, and not the rich capital
ists, that should fear this competition.
At the large carpet manufactory in Thomp
son, Conn., they have, to avoid suspending operations, reduced the wages of their hands 25 per cent., cutting off about one dollar a
week, to enable them to compete with for
eign cheap laobor.
The Philadelphia North American 6tates
that one of the heaviest manufacturers of
woolen goods at Moyamensing had stopped his looms.. Others have reduced the wages
paid hands, and others determined to discharge them. An iron establishment there discharged a large number of hands. Most of the cotton manufacturers in and about the
neigborhood of Philadelphia, are shutting their doors or reducing the wages of their workmen from 25 to 50 per cent.
The Vulcan Iron Works at Troy, New York,
says the Tribune, have stopped work. . The company had recently erected a large rolling
mill, to employ 200 hands, at an expense of
200,000 a year. The New York Gazette says that owing to the countermand of large orders for wrought nails, forty workers at that business in Albany, have been thrown out of employ. The Globe mill at Kensington will discharge one or two hundred Jiands;and a new hinge .manufactory at Southwark, will soon discontinue work. The large rolling mill at Wilksbarre, just completed, will not be put in operation,since the repeal of the Tariff of 1842, says the Danville Democrat. The Delaware Republican says, that an agent was recently sent to Ohio to purchase thirty thousand dollers worth of wooljbut on the passage of the Tariff act, the order was countermanded. How do the Faemehs like that? The effect upon the money market of M'-
Kay's bill, has caused several failures in Phil
adelphia. One bouse stopped for $150,-000.
Stoppage in Potts ville. -The conse
quence of this foul legislation are not matters
of surpnse,but it is already sure that most all of the works which were projected and being established must be laid aside at once,or as soon as they can be gotten in such a state
as to render this feasible.' Not only is this
sure to happen, but large and extensive establishments have already been closed, the workmen discharged, and an end put to ex
tensive operations.- A large machine shop
which wrs being built, the walls having been
completedf will be roofed in, and all further work on it postponed indifinitely. At the Zrme tee write a black flag ia hanging from
its walls. Had the protective system been
preserved, a double activity would have per
vaded it. Ihe coal shippers, who but a tew weeks since were unable to fill the many orders they were receiving, must now, the one half of them, suspend their business, and the rest, without a profit, continue their opera
tions for the mere purpose of providing for
their laborers work and subsistence. All
business will feel thisjthe market for produce will be effected,, and all will suffer immedi
ately by the general inactivity which will per
vade all things. Miners' Journal.
Gen. Taylok and the Presidency. The recent demonstrations of public sentiment in favor of General Taylor, as a suitable candidate for the next Presidency, it seems, is altogether inconsistent with the views and feelings of the old soldier. A
correspondent of the Mobile Herald, thus writes to the editor of that paper: "I was somewhat curious to know what effect the sudden popularity of Gen. Taylor would have upon him. When the old soldier heard of his nomination to the Presidency by various meetings intbe Union, he showed as much surprise as any of us. He went further and expresed t decided opinion against the election to that office of military chieftains making an exception, however, or excuse, in favor of Gen. Jackson, whose intimate friend he was, and for whom he had the strongest attachment. His words, as . given to me, ran somewhat in this shape: "I
have been always opposed to the election of
mere soldiers to ihe Presidency. They have no business in a civil office of so great res
ponsibility, and they are usually unfitted by education ind experience for it. It is not probable that I can be prompted to violate
this principle of my life to gratify my own ambition, or those who have controlled those
meetings." ,
CirOliver Oldschool, the Washington cor
respondent of the U. S. Gazette, says that a gentleman recently congratulated Mr. Polk on baying1 carried all his measures through
Congress, to which Mr. Polk replied, "Yes
I have carried fill of them through, and am
the weaker for the passage of every one of
them." Mr. Polk was right for once. In the recent elections in Kentucky ,it ap
pears that the Whigs have elected a larger
proportion of the member to the Legislature
than usual. Not more than cne-fpurth - the jnember are Locofocos,
.THE RESULT. We have not received tbe official returns from the State, but we are able to say that Witcorab is re elected by about 2500 majority; that Dunning is
elected; the Senate is loco and the whigshare
a majority in the House of six or eight. Spea king of the result the State Journal says:
"Although the result of the election for
Governor is different from what we hoped it
would be, we feel in no wise discouraged.-
In tact, when we look over the whole ground
we see tn it much to nerve the wings for fu
ture effort. It shows that the great mass of
the parly are determined to battle on (no matter how adverse the circumstances) in
be ha ii ot those measures whose permanent
establishment they deem essential to the las
ting prosperity of the country.
"So recently coming out of a Presiden
tial election in which the Great Statesman of the Age was set aside for the elevation of the mere Automaton of a coalition of fac-
tionists, it is but reasonable to suppose that
many 60 far dispaited of success as not to
attend the polls, tlad the full whig strength
been voted, the result would have been dif
ferent. ' It is useless now, however, to utter re
grets as to tbe past. We must look to the
future. In our opinion the recent action of
the democratic party in Congress has secured
its speedy overthrow. It has closed up the
issues so loug and so skillfully kept open
"with effect. It has repudiated the principle
ot protection of American Industry and do
clared itself in favor of the British manufac
turer. It has re-established the odious sub
treasury system, the very measure which
prostrated the administration ot Mr. Van Bu
ren. It has, through the veto of the Presi
dent, refused to improve Western Rivers and
Harbors, objects vitally affecting the inter
interests and prosperity of the people of the
West. lor the purpose of prosecuting a
war of conquest, a National Debt is fast ac
cumulating, which must be paid from the
hard earnings of the people. These meas
tires will soon be felt, and those who have been led onward by the partizan cry of the Demagogue, will begin to think and reason with themselves as to the causes of the diffi
culties which will soon again surround them. "Let the whigs, the true friends of the
country, take courage and now, before the din of the last political battle dies away, and amid the exultations of those who have achieved a temporary triumph, resolve to prepare for the great Presidential contest which will soon be upon us. In that contest no false issues, the usual resort of our opponents, can be presented. It will determine if the people of this country will have their workshops in Europe or in their own country; whether they will enrich British manufacturers or render a reasonable reward to American labor; whether the sub-treasury shall remain the law of the land, or shall be repealed, and whether our harbors and rivers shall remain unimproved by the National Government, or be made to adyance our growing commerce for the benefit of the people. These issues are now directly made and those in power will be held to them. We have no fears as to the result. HERE BE TRUTHS.
Mr. Brownson hit off the radical or loco-
foco portion of the democratic party . when
he spoke of them in the following language,
which is indubitably, English, and every man can understand it He says: , "When I find men who are steeped in cor
ruption, gorged with the spoil of the people, holding themselves up as the especial friends
of the people, and loud in their advocacy ot
the democratic theory, and in their condem
nation of all who question its soundness, I am irresislably led to the belief that there is
something in theory itself peculiarly tavora
bly to the prosecution ot theirjcorrupt designs
and I want no better evidence to assure me
of its utter hostility to the legitimate ends of
government. What we want is not windy pro
fessions about li berty and equality, noisy rant
and frothy declamations about democracy,
but substantial freedom, however secured, for each individual to perform, without let or
hinderance, his especial functions in the social body, whether it be function of the head, of the hand, or of the foot. The real enemies
Or- of this substantial freedom are your
democratic politicians, who with their lips praise the people, and wilh their hands pick
their pockets, or those who act the jackals
to their dainty chiefs, who are too exaltedto
plunder except by proxy .'C0 II is because
democracy affords an ample field to theso
political spoilsmen that 1 chiefly distrust it, and demand the preservation of our constitutionalism as some protection against them ot
tbe mass they flatter and plunder."
Correspondence of (he Baltimore Patriot. Washington, Aug. 6, 184(3. The Senate held a very long session to
day, and I understood, discussed a certain
subject with a good deal of zeal, earnestness
and ability. Some of the Senators have gone
so far as a prolongation of the session, by rescinding the resolution to adjourn on the 10
inst. - When the propositions now befor the
Senate in executive session come to light
come they will the country may prepare it
self to be once mora startled in the line of
events by which it has been so often startled
of late. More than this it would not be mu-
dent, perhaps, for me to say at this time.
Jn the senate this morning, after the read-
in of the PreuitieaVa mc33og-o- obrrur th Or
egon Treaty, Mr. Hannegan burst forth in
one of his impulsive and glowingly eloquent outbreaks against the executive, for which
he has been so distinguished this session, in
which he handled Mr. Polk's baking out op
eration with ungloved bands:
How true was the prophecy of the "old
man eloquent," John Quincy Adams, at the commencement of the session, that Mr Polk,
who had planted himselt immovably in
words, upon the line of 54 40, would back out.
Bombastes-like, Mr. Polk had hung up the
emblem of his resolve -
"Who ever dares these boots displace. Must meet Bombastes face to face!" John Bull knocked down the boots.where-
upon the valient Mr. Polk made him a po lite bow and in the substance said, Mr. Bull
I admire your cool resolve. In this matter about Oregon, you may have just what you ask. I will instruct my pliant Secretary of State to that effect. You shall hot only have a handsom strip of land south ofthe40ih parallel, and the free navigation of the Columbia river forever, but we will pass for your especial benefit a British Tariff bill! Will not that suit you Mr. Bull?" " Such in substance is the language of Mr. Polk. He .has emphatically fulfilled the the predictions? of Mr. Adams he has backed out !
BRUTAL CHAPTER IN ROMANCE. It will be recollected that a dashing young fellow from Kentucky recently seized and forcibly carried off a young boarding school miss from Philadelphia, and they were subsequently married. A letter from Louisville, Ky. says that the lady's father resolved to make the best of a bad bargain, forgave the dashing couple, aud invited them to make his house their home. One day last week, Mr. W. and family went to the springs leaving the creditable "Capt. T." with his young bride, to do honors of the house in his absence. Saturday afternoon last enjoying a comfortable little tete-atete, the young bride on being complimented upon the beauty of a straggling curl which fell
gracefully over her shoulder, informed her spiiited protector that' there was enough to
love without the curl, and she would not have him guilty of an excess, she would therefore clip it off. He remonstrated against
so rash an act. She persisted. He threaten
ed she clipped the curl. He knocked her
down. She screamed for assistence, recov
ered, while making her escape through the door, he made a desperate blow at uer with his dirk, which, whether furtunalelv
or unfortunately; I will hot pretend to say,
missea us aim, anu enierea tne aoor, with such force . as to split off a large piece of tbe
wood. He tbeu made bis escape to his father's
liquor selling establishment, wherein all probability, he imbibed the innocent beverage which led to the diabolical act. His only
excuse is that he va3 under the iufluence of
wine. On reaching the " tavern, his elder brother kicked him out of the house, and thus far is the history of this romantic marriage.
From ihe National Intelligencer - THE UNITED STATES AND MEXICO. We give the most conspicuous place in our columns to-day to the official history of the President's confidential message to the Senate (piior to his public message to botb houses) and the proceedings of the Senate thereon jwhich we are enabled to do by the injunction of secresy having been removed
therefrom on the motion of a Senator friend
ly to the Administration. The subject of these papers and proceedings is of entirely too great importance to require from us any invitation to our readers to give them an attentive perusal. Proceedings ol the Senate, and documents communicated theretofrom which the injunction ofsecresy had been removed, in relation to affairs between the U. States and Mexico. Ia Executive Session, Senate op the United States, Tuesday, Aug. 4, 1846. The follow message waa received from the President of the United States by Mr. Walker his Secretary : Confidential. Washington, Aug. 1846. . lo the Senate of the United States: 1 herewith communicate to tbe Senate,the copy of a letter under date of the 27ib ultimo, from the Secretary of Slate of the United
States to the minister of Foreign Relations of the Mexican Republic, again proposing
to open negotiations and conclude a treaty
of peace, which shall adjust all the questions
in aispute between the two Republics. Considering the relative power of the two countries, the glorious events which have already
signalized our arms, and the distracted con
dition of Mexico, I did not conceive that any point of national honor could exist which
ought to prevent me from making this overture Equally anxious to teminate.by a peace honorable for both parties, as I was originally to avoid tbe existing war, I have deemed it my
duty again to extend the olive branch to Mex
ico. Should the Uovernment of that repub
lic accept the offer in the same friendly spirit by which it was dictated, negotiation will speedily commence for the conclusion of a
treaty.
The chief dificultyt to be anticipated in the
negotiation is the adjustment of the boundary
between the parties, by a line which shall at
once be satisfactory and convenient to both, and such as neither will hereafter be inclin
ed to disturb. This is the best mode of se
curing perpetual peace and good neighbor
hood between the two republics. Should
the Mexican Government, in order to accom
plish these objects, be willing cede any por
tion of their territory to the United Slates,we ought to pay them a fair equivalent; a just
and honorable peace, .and not conquest being
our purpose in the prosecution of the war
Under these circumstances and considering
the exhausted and distracted condition ol
the Mexican Republic, it might become ne
cessary,in order to restore peace, that I should
have in my power to advance a portion of
the consideration money for any cession of
territory which may be made. The Mexican Government might not be willing to wait for the pay mem o tine wnole Until the-treaty could bo ratified by the Senate, and an appropriation " to carry it into effect be made by Congress; and the'; necessity for such a
delay might defeat the object altogether. I would, therefore, suggest whether it might not be wise for Congress to appropriate a sum such as they might consider adequate for this purpose, to be paid if necessary, immediately after the ratification of a treaty by Mexico. The disbursement would, of course, be accounted for at tbe treasury,' not as secret service money, but like other expenditures. ' .Two precedents for such a proceeding exist in our past history during the administration of Mr. Jefferson, to which I would call your atteution. On the 26th of February, 1S03, Congress passed an act appropriating $2,000 "for the pupose of defraying any extraordinary expenses which may be incurred in the intercursa between the United States and foreign nations," to be applied under the discretion of the President of the U. States who shall cause an account of the expenditure thereof to be laid before - Congress as soon as may be;', aud on the 13th of Feb., 1806, an appropriation was made of tbe same amount and in the same terms. The object in the first case was to enable the President to abtain the cession of Louisiana, and in the second that of the Floridas. In neither case was the money actually drawn from the treasury; I should hope that the result might be similar in this respect, on the present occasion, though the appropriation is deemed expedient as a precautionary measure. I refer the whole subject to the Senate Executive session.. If they would concur in opinion with me, then I recommend the passage of a law appropriartng such a sum as Congress may deem adequate, to be used by the Executive, if necessary, for the purpose which I have indicated. In the two cases to which I have referred, the special purpose of the appropriation did not appear on the face of the law, as this might have defeated the object; neither, for the same reason, in my opinion, ought it now to be stated. I also communicate to the Senate the copy of a letter from the Secretary of State to Commodore Conner, of the 27th ult., which was transmitted to him on the day it bears date. JAMES K. POLK. The message was read. The following communcation, dated 27 July, from the Secretary of State, communicated with the proceeding message, are inserted bere;in connexion with the message, (although not "a part of tbe Journal,) in preference to miking them an appendix : Department of State, Washington, July 27, 1846. Sir: The President of the United States, no less anxious to terminate than he was to avoid tha present war withMexican Re public, has determined to make an effort to accomplish this purpose. He has according
ly instructed the undersigned, Secretary of
State, to propose through your Lxceuency to the Mexican Government, that negotiations
shall forthwith commence for the conclusion
of a peace just and honorable for both . par
ties. Should this oner be received and responded to by the Mexican Government in the same frank and friendly spirit by which it has been dictated,he will immediately dispatch an Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary to the city ot Mexico, witu
instructions and full powers to conclude a
treaty of peace which shall adjust all ques
tions in dispute between the two itepuo-
lics. If. the Mexican. Government should
prefer to send a Minister to Washington to
conduct the negotiation here, he shall be re
ceived with kindness and respect, and every
effort shall be made to accomplish the object
othis tnisyion with the lest possible delay.
In the present communication it is deem
ed useless and might prove injurious, to dis
cuss the causes of the existing war. I his
might tend to delay or defeat the restoration
of peace. 1 he past is already consigned to
history; the future, under Providence is with
in our power. -
The occasion may, however, be embraced
to state that the President has ever cherished the kindest feelings for Mexico, and that
one of the first wishes of his heart is,tbat she
may be a powerful and prosperous republic, in perpetual amity with the U. States.
ZJom. Conner will transmit this dispatch
for your Excellency to the Governor of Vera
Cruz, under a nag of truce; and your are respectfully invitad to adopt the same channel for communicating your answer.
I avail myself of this occasion to offer
your Excellency the assurance of my most distinguished consideration. JAMES BUCHANAN.
' To his Excellency the Minister of Foreign
Relations, of the Mexican Republic. Mr. Bucnanan to Commodore Conner. . Department of State, Washington, July 27, 1846. Sir: I have the honor to transmit here
with a sealed note, addressed to the Minis
ter of Foreign Relations of the Mexican Re
public, with an open copy of tbe same for
your own use. From this you will perceive that the President has determined again to
offer the olive-branch to Mexico.
1 he f resident does not believe that any
point of national honer should forbid him from making this tender, especially after the glorious events which have thus far marked
the progress of the war. Should the Mexi
can Government determine to accept the offer and enter upon negotiations, it may and
probably will propose lo you to conclude an
armistice during their pendency. If such a
proposition should be made, you will prompt
ly but kindly reject it, giving at the same
time every assurance that the President will
do all in his power to bring the negotiotions
to a satisfactory termination with the .least
possible delay.
If an armistice were concluded, the two
parties would not stand on an equal footing
The United States, at a heavy expense, now have armies in the field and navies on the ocean, in successful progress to conquer an
honorable peace.' Should their operations be arrested by an armistice, and the negotia
tions for peace should finally fail, we should
then lose nearly all the advantages of an en
tire campaign. ' Besides this sacrifice, great as it might be, would scarcely equal the evils
In any form which a season ol inactivity
could not fail to inflict upon' our troops, the greater portion of whom consists of patriotic citizens who have volunteered to serve their
(country in tbe confidence that tbey would
be actively employed. Whilst, therefore,
the President sincerely desires with the utmost promptitude to restore our friendly re
lations with Mexico upon fair and liberal
terms, the war must continue to be prosecu
ted with the utmost vigor until a definite
treaty of. peace shall be signed and ratified
by Mexico. You will pot fail, with all the despatch in your power, to transmit the answer of the Mexican Government to this Department. I have the honor to be, sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, JAMES BUCHANAN. To Com. David Conner, Commanding the Naval forces of the U. S. in the Gulf of Mexico. The Senate, on the 6th inst., while in executive session, adopted the following resolutions: Mr. McDufiie, from the Committee on Foreign Relations, to whom was recommitted, on the 5th inst., the resolutions reported on that day, reported the following resolutions: . . V 1. Resolved, That the Senate entertain a strong desire that the existing war with Mexico should be terminated by a treaty of peace
just and honorable to botb nations; and that
the President be advised to adopt all proper measures for the attainment of that object. ,2. Resolved further, That the Senate deem it advisable that Congress should appropriate a sum of money to enable the President to conclude a treaty of peace, limits and boundaries with the Republic of Mexico and to be used by him in the event that such treaty should call for the expenditure of the money so appropriated, or any part thereof. The first resolution was adopted by a vote
of 43 to 2 Messrs. Atchison and Rusk vo
ting in the negative. The second resolution was adopted by a vote of 33 to 19. The bill putting 2,000,000 at the disposal ot the
President, as indicated in the second reso
lution, and which had passed the House was Ipst in the Senate on the last day of the session.
poses that they shall "never again meet in a
common Democratic convention a large body of men who have vigorously opposed us on
principle."
An exchange paper remarks that in these -
days "A poor man's earnings, brought homo
day by day, are carred out of the house on the backs of his fashionable daughters'.'1
03-We shall give the official vote of, the , late elections in our State, as soon as they are received. We have not yet seen any
comparison of the vote given for Lieut. Goernor. The vote in 45 counties as reported
by the Secretary of State is for a Convention
22,773, against it 18,441. I tis thought the
remaining counties'have paid little or no attention to the matter, and that a convention will be called to revise tha Constitution. The returns below are, we believe, correct so far as beard from. AUGUST ELECTION 1846. SENATORS. -. , 1815. . 1846.

The Hon. Win. L.Yancey, of Alabama, has resigned his seat in Congress. His address to his constituents is a plain-spoken document, and bitter denunciatory of tbe democracy of the North and West. He wishes '.he South to have nothing more to do with them in political affairs. "My observation here," .he says, -'convinces me that in such a party organization, the South, which is the only portion of the party sound on all these questions, is used merely to foot the bill, and to aid in giving a power which shall give to our Nothern brethren the poi7a" And, as a remedy for this state of things, he pro-
