THE J OUR N A-E. Not Ctesat's weal but that of Rome.', Thursday, February 25 .air: RELIEF FOR IRELAND. The chizens of this place held a meeting on Monday evening last, at the Methodist Churcbjfor the purpose of raising means to assist the famishing poorot Ireland. The meeting was very geneaily attended, both by Ladies and Gentlemen. Charles I. Battels, Esq., was called to the chair, and the meeting was eloquently and feelingly addressed by several gentlemen present, and a subscription at once taken up. About three hundred dollars were subscribed on the spot, and committees of three in each ward of the city were appointed to wait on the citizens at their residences, and solicit further contributions. A committee of management, consisting of Messrs. Jno." Shanklin, . Robl. Barnes, Sam"l Orr, Francis Li nek, Sr., and William Hughes, were appointed, whose duty it will be to reeeive the funds and apply them in such . manner as to them shall seem best, and to whom remittances from the country, ofither money or produce, may be directed, tt committee was also appointed to prepare an address to tbe citizens of the county in behalf o( Ireland, which we feel confident will be responded to in a generous and liberal spirit. All accounts from poor and down-trodden Ireland are o( the most heart-rending character. In 00 former period of her history, say the English as well as Irish Journals, has this part ef the United Kingdom exhibited such a miserable and alarming aspect as at the present time. Starvation of the most dire description stalks through the length and breadth of its provinces; disease and death are hurrying the victims from off the stage of time, and millions of a brave people know not how aud where to brave the awful miser which haunts their noonday walks and midnight visions. So great and unparalled is the amount ot destitution now prevailing that the efforts of the Government to abridge and
mitigate the sufferings ot the distressed prove unequal to the emergency, and private benevolence starts back at the horrifying picture of misery which daily demands relief. In fact, in many instances, the Irish cabins are little better than charnel houses, where the dead, uncared for, unburied,lie festering by the side of the dying. No one can read these distressing accounts and not feel his heart open to the relief of his lamisbing brethren, and blest as we have been with boumelul crops, and prices higher than has been known for years, we are able, every one of us, to open oar hands also. We confidentiy'anticipate that at least a thousand dollars in money and provisions will be rais ed in this city and county. We can and should do this much at least. ' From Tampico. The N. O. Picayune of tbe 17th instant, contains late intelligence r aw lit , irom iampico. e learn Irom that paper that the ship Ondiaka, which left the Balize on the 20th till., for Tampico, with four com panies of Louisiana volunteers, numbering 300 men, under command of Col. DeRussy was totally lost near the Isle of Lobas, about thirty miles south of Tampico. All the troops on board and the crew got safely ashore. The first rumor that reached New Orleans was that the troops were all taken prisoners as soon as they landed, glad to escape from the water with their lives. . Snbsequently it was learned from a gentleman from Tampico that the troops got ashore wilh their arms and a week's provisions and at once com menced Hie erection ol a slight temporary defence. The troops and the first and sec ond mates of the Ondiaka had reached Tain picQ before the gentleman left there.' These volunteers are said to be in a most de plorable condition, wanting shoes, hats, and other necessary clothing. The ship Cath arine and anorher ship were-off Tampico with troops onboard. The health of the troops at that place was generally excellent very nine sicKness among tnem and none of a dangarous character. The N. O. Delta of the 16th inst., men lions a report which had been received Tampico by a commercial bouse, of a fierce encounter between the Mexicans and a por tlonofGen. Kearney's command, supposed to be the Missourians under Col. Price. jMany are represented to have been killed on both sides, but the Americans were vie torious and took possession of the city of Chihuahua. The above is the latest and al the intelligence of importance we have from the seat of war. . X HE i EEASUEY OF HISTORY. We fcave T .

Washington's Birth Day Notwithstand
ng the inclemency of the weather, the 226 of February was celebrated in our city with more than usual pomp and parade. At sunrise the cannon w?s fired and soon after the martial music of the German Washington Guards was heard in our streets. At 10 o'clock the Order of the Sons of Temperance, now numbering 148 members, moved from heir Hall, and escorted by the Guards, marched through the principal streets to the Episcopal Chuicb, where after appropriate music by the Choir, and prayer by the Rev. Mr. Sxeed, an appropriate and eloquent oraion was delivered by John J. Chandler, Esq.; after which the procession was again formed, and escorted as before, the Sousre: turned to their Hall and were dismissed. The church was never more crowded than on this occasion, and many were unable to procure seats. The centre pews were reserved for the Sons exclusively, and were filed. ( A little more than four months ago the Grand Division of the Sons of Temperanc of this State, granted to a few liiends of the cause in this city a charter, and in the short ime which has elapsed, they have not only increased to the larce number mentioned above, including all classes of citizens, Lui such has been the happy influence of this s6 ciety upon the morals of the community, that drunkenness is almost unknown among us. Few believed four months ago that the anni versary of any of our national days could have come and gone without a recurrence ol he disgraceful scenes of drunkenness and rowdyism which have heretofore marked the celebration of such days, in this, as well as other communities.' Sanguine as were the members of the Order of the good they were ble to achieve for then fallen brethren, and the benefit they would eventually confer up on society, none then dreamed ol the happy meeting of so many of our citizens clothed n the regalia of the Temperance Order to celebrate the birth-day of the 'Father of his Country." Yet it "is no less startling than le; and from indications which are not to be misunderstood, "the temperance cause will soon root out from our midst i hose sour ces of misery and wretchedness the tippling houses sooner and more surely than all the municipal or legislative enactments that could be passed ; and each returning anniversary of the day find the Order increased in numbers until, as we hope, none will be left out. The Three Million Bill Adoption of the Wilmol Proviso. The House of Representatives on the 15th inst., passed the bill for placing three millions at the disposal of the President for the purpose of 'buying a peace," but with the Wilmot Proviso at tached to it. This Previso prohibits the in troduction of slavery, as it now exists in the South, into any of the territory that may be acquired by the United States under this bill. Phis amendment was adopted by a majority of nine votes in a very full house there be ing 115 yeas for it, and 10G nays against it, making 221 members out of the 229 of which the House is composed. The bill was then passed by about the same vote 12 mem bers who had voted against the Proviso vot ing afterwards for the bill, and 11 who had ed for the Proviso then voting against the bill. , What will be tlia file of the bill in the Senate, is by no means certain, though the chances are that it will not pass at all. The probabilities are that the bill will fail in "one house or the other, or if it escape them be vetoed by the President, so that the pros pect of getting a peacby buying it is now as bad as is the prospect of being soon able to conquer one. ' (7-Mr. Westcott, the democratic Sen ator in Congress from Florida, has fallenout with the Administration and handles it occa sionally without gloves.' The other day in the Senate on the resolution to expel the editor of the Union from his seat in that body . Mr. W. defined whatdemocracy was under the present administration, and that he suc ceeded no one who has watched the course of events will deny. -He asked: -: . - "But what was democracy? Democracy at this time of day, vxDEa Tnis administration was nothing more than "loaves and hshes from a Lieutenant General down to a second Lieutenant. He supposed for these remarks he should be read out of the democratic par tv of office holders. Well, be it so. Let them read him ont. He did not wish to re main in such company. But, like the hon orable Senator from Massachusetts, he should have to say, "where shall I go?". He coald only say to his honorable friends behind him (the Whigs,) hecouid not go with them. "Mr. W. warned the Democracy the real democracy of the country against the dan gers which beset them. If they could only see the corruption which had been brought about by the administration could only see how they were made use of bv those who were seeking only plunder plunder of the public ojices they would view it with astonishment and alarm. They would come here, and would tumble the President, the heads of departments, the Senate and the House of Representatives, Whigs and Democrats, head over heels, into the Potomac, and they would serre them right, too."
O-The articles in the Union, on which the action of the Senate was founded, ex eluding the editor of that paper from a scat in the Senate, were predicted on the temporary falling through of the Army bill, inconsequence ol tbe disagreement between the two houses as to the details. The articles iu the Union consisted of a communication signed "Yindicator,r which was endorsed by an editorial. - The following extrlct from these articles will show their spirit : T" From the Union. "The Army Bill. A correspondent in this evening's Union has painted wilh strong and iudignanl feelings the rejection of the army bill by the Senate of the U-. States. We are as much astonished by the grounds on which it was rejected, as by the failure of a measure so long agitated, so much demanded by a patriotic people, so essential to the vindication of our rights and o ir honor, 5t.c Extract from the article of the Union's cor- . . respondent referred to. "In the Senate of the U. States on yesterday the Mexicans achieved another victory. The bill for organizing ten regiments of
tegular troops having beeu submitted, wi,h its amendments, to a committee of confe euce of the two Houses, that committee unanimously agreed on a report, which was submitted to them for their appoval. The

II banta Anna, Arnpiidu, or any other Mexican General could snatch from our sol diers a corresponding victory, we should plwce them upon the same elevation where their compatriots, friends and lellow soldiers in the Senate of the United Slates now stands." Rumors from Washington. The Phila delphia Inquirer publishes a story which it says has been received jn that city by a let ter from Washington, that Mr. Polk is him self about to proceed to the seat of war, accompanied by Messrs. Benton, Calhoun, Cass and Wright. We' agree with the Inquirer that this story is rather tough. "Some of the Bosion landlords, in addition to their lunches, provide a band of music, which discourses most eloquent harmony." So says the Boston Post. This is proof, we suppose, that the temperance cause has made such headway in Boston, that it is only by extraordinary efforts and inducements people can be got into taverns. Affairs in England. We cut the fol lowing monitory aud monetary paragraph from a London letter in tbe N. Y. Commer cial Advertiser: "But the apprehensions which are just now beginning to be entertairiad fall, in my opin ion, far short ot what would be warranted by the real circumstances of our position. 1 believe that we are on the verge of a monetary convulsion, which will prove equal in severi ty to those of 1S'2d, and 1837, and that the accounts you will henceforth receive, will astonish you by the rapidity of its progress. A summary of the reasons for this view may easily be given, and it will then b? for your readers to decide upon its validity." New Mail Route We we're informed on Tuesday last that three tons of mail matter was lying on one ol our wharf boats waiting to be sent round to St. Louis. Thry were the overlooked mails from Louisville to Si. Louis, which had accumulated at Vincennes, inconsequence, it is said, of the inability of the contractor to carry them through, and were sent down the Wabash river on a steamboat, to be shipped to St. Louis. A mail route Irom Louisville to St. Louis by way of Wa bash river is a new route, truly. City Charter. We have received the Act granting to the citizens of Evansville a city charter, which we shall publish in our next number. The Board of Trustee? have ordered the printing of fire hundred extra copies ol the Journal to contain the act, which will be distributed to our citizens. Bishop Doane earnestly recommends to the people of New Jersey to charier a chip themselves, load her wilh provisions, and send her to Ireland. He heads the subscription w'uh $100. Massachusetts U. S. Senator. The Legislature of Massachusetts (now in session) has re-elected John Davis to the U. 8. Sen ate for six years from the 4th of march next. It is something for a State to boast that ii has such men as Daniel Webster and John Da vis to send to the Senate of the Union; and in these days, when mediocre men are in most favor and fill the highest places in the country, it is even something more for a State to be able to say that it not only has such men as Daniel Webster and John Drvis,' but that it keeps them in the Sena CT" Highly Important. The' Vincen nes Sun of the 20th February, A. D., 1847, says:. "To-day, at 2 o'clock, P. M-, the editor returned from Cincinnati. ,v - .

RELIEF OF IRELAND. MR. CLAY'S SPEECH. The following is a report of the Speech delivered by Mr. Clay, at the meeting held in New Orleans" for the relief of Ireland. ... . Mr. President and Fellow Citizen. I hesitated to accept the invitation which has brought me here; being a mere sojourner and not a member ol ibis comm unity,! doubted the propriety of my presence and participation in the proceedings of this morning, and apprehended that my motive might be misunderstood. But--ou consulting my pillow, and considering that the humanity of the object of this assembly is bounded by no latitude nor locality, and ought to be co-extensive with the whole human family it seemed to me that all consideiations of fastidious delicacy and etiquelte'should be waived and marged in a generous and magnanimous effort to contribute to the relief of the sufferings which have excited our feelings. If 1 should be misconceived or misrepresented, the experience of a lung life Las taught me that the best response to misconception and misrepresentations is the feat less and faithful discharge of duly in all the conditions of life in which we may be placed, and the
hjjbest answer to traduction and calumny, is con-r-l scious rectitude and the approbation of one's
own heart. " " Mr. President If we were to hear that Urge numbers ol the inhabitants ol Asia, of the globe, were daily dying with hunger and famine no matter what their color, what their religion, or what, their civiliz tiion, we should deepiy lament their condition, and be irresisiably prompted, it possible to mitigate their sulferings. But it is not the distress ol any such disiant regions that have summoned us together oil this occasion. The an palling and heart-rendering distresses of Irelaud, and Irishmen form the object of our present consultation. That Ireland, which has been in all the vicissitudes of our nationexistence, our friend, and has ever exten ded to us her . warmest sympathy those Irish men, who, in every war 111 winch we have been engaged, on every battle-field, from Quebec 10 Monterey, have stood by us, shoul der to shoulder, and shared in all the perils aud fortunes of the con3ict. Tbe imploring appeal comes to us from the Irish nation, which is so uidenlined. with our own, as to be almost part and parcel of ours, bone of our bone and flesh of our flesh. Nor is it any ordinary case of human misery, or a ew isolated cases of death by starvation, that we are called, upon to consider.. Famine is stalking abroad throughout Ireland; whole towns, counties countless human be ings, of every age and of both sexes at this vety moment are starving or in danger of starving to death for bread! Of all the forms of dissolution of human life, the pangs and agony of that which proceeds from famine are the most dreadful If one dies fighting gloriously for his country he is cheeied in his expiring moments, by the patriotic nature of his sacrafice. He knows that hif surviving relations aud friends while lamenting his loss, will be gratified and honored by his devotion to his eooutry. Poets, painters, sculptors, historians will record his deeds of valor and perpetuate his renown. If lie dies by the sudden explosion of the boilers of a steamboat, or by a s lor 111 at sea, death is quiet and easy, aud soon, performs its mission. A lew. piercing shrieks are uttered, he sinks beneaih the surface, and all is still and silent. Bui a death "by starvation comes slow, lingering and excruciating. From dav to day the wretched victim feels his flesh dwindling, his speech sinking, his friends (ailing around him, and he finally expires in horrible agony. Behold the wretched Irish moiher-with haggard looks and streaming eyes-her famished children clinging to her tattered garments, and gazing p'ueousiy in her face begging for food! , And see the distracted husoand and father with pallid cheeks standing by, horror and despair depicied in his countenance-tortured with the reflection that he can afford no succor or relief to the dearest objects of his heart about to be snatched forever from him by the most cruel of all deaths! This is no fancy picture; but, if we are to credit the lernble accounts, which reach us from that theatre of misery and wretchedness, is one of daily occurrence. Indeed, no imagination can conceive no tongue express no pencil paint the horrors of the scenes whieh are there daily ex hibited. : Ireland, in respect to food, is differently situated from alt the countries ol the world. Asia has her abundant supply of rice; Aftica, her dates,-yams, and rice; Europe, her bread of wheat, rye and oats; America,, a double rosource in the small grains, and a neverfailing and abundant supply of Indian corn thai great supporter of ' animal life for which we are not half grateful enough to a bountiful and merciful Providence. But the staple food of large parts of poor Ireland is the potatoe, and when it fails, pinching want and famine follow. It is among the inscru table dispensationsof Providence, that the crop has been blighted the last two years, and hence, the privation ol food, and ihis appeal to the svmpalhy of American hearts. Shall starving Ireland the young and the old dying women and children stretch out their htnds to us for bread,and find no relief ? Will not this great city, the world's store house of an exaustless supply of all kinds of food, borne to its overflowing warehouses b$4 ihe .t ather of Waters, act on this occasion in a manner worthy of its high destiny, and obey the noble impulses of the generous hearts ot its blessed inhabitants? t We are commarded, by the common Savior of Ireland.and of us, to love one another as . ourselves;,, and on this, together with one higher obligation, hang ail the law and prophets ol our holy religion. We know 1 hat of all the forms of humanity and. benevolence, none is more acceptable, in the sight of God, than the practice of charity. Let us demonstrate our love, our duty, and our gratitude to Him, by a liberal contribution to the relief of His suffering Irish children. - . . j Fellow-ciiizens: No ordinary purpose has brought us "together. This is no political gathering. If it had been you would not have seen me here. I have not come here to make a speech. When the heart is full
and agitated by its own feeling emotions, the paralyzed tongue finds utterance difficult. It is not fervid eloquence, not gilded words, that Ireland needs but substantial food. Let us rise to the magnitude of the duty which is before us, and by a generous supply from the magnitude of our means, evince
the genuineness and cordiality of our sympathy and commisse ration. At the conclusion of Mr. Clay's speech, one loud and unanimous shout of approval was raised, in which officers and audience participated. Correspondence of the Baltimore Patriot. WASHINGTON, Feb. 14. 1847. After a long debate, yesterday, the Senate adopted the resolution, offered by Mr. Yulee, to expel the editor of Mr. Polk's official organ, from a privileged seat on'the floor of that body! The vote stood 27 to 21, Mes srs. Calhoun, Butler, Yulee and Westcoti, of the dominant - pirty, votins with the Whijjs for the expulsion. In the course of his speech, which was a very long one, Mr. Westcott proclaimed that were the people to know of the amount of fraud and corruption practiced here at the real of government, by the executive and Legislative Departments, that cheated, insulted and bamboozled people would rise in their majesty and pones and tumble Mr. Jas. K. Polk and his Cabinet Ministers and both Houses of Congress, whigs and locolocos, heels over head into the Potomac. Mr. Westcott is an eccentric genius, and figuratively some times! He indulges in the latitude of debate which the rules of the Senate secure to him. ' As lor the wane in Mr. Polk's popularity, he stated that if that functionary's claim were to be again before the people, for (hoir 'sweet voices,' lie could not get the vote of a single district in the U. States! In this there is more truth than fancy! The vote in the Senate on the expulsion resolution, was a blow aimed less, I iimgine, al ihe editor of the 'Union' than the President of the United States, who is presumed to countenance the assault upon the Senate by his own selected olficial editor! The editor himself is no more to the Senate than any body else, ot course. The blow was aimed at higher game. - It is reported tlnl the noxious communication which received so much endorsement and commendation from the official editor, emanated from a higher qusr'er,else It would not have been so bepraised! It is also asserted by some that a locofoco Senator, who has figured in the debate, and who used lobe fond of writing similar anonymous attacks upon his betters, furnished the communication complnined or lor the Union but ibis 1 cannot believe; not because the Senator says he does not know who wrote the article, but because it does not appear tome to be in his style altogether! 1 learned thai both the President and the official editor are much excited and mortified at the vole of the Senate in this matter! In ihe House yesterday a heap of speeches were delivered to empty benches, on tbe three million bill. I took no note of any of them except that of Mr. Andrew Stewart, of Pennsylvania. He is a thorough-going prac lical man, and when he has any thing to say, he says it right straight out, and gives the facts and figutes lo bear oul his declarations. The point I noted down related to the contrast which he drew between practical Locofoco and practical Whig doctrine, as il lustrated by acts. The annu tl expenditures of Adams' Ad ministration were $ 1 3,0 30,000. " In the four yeais, Mr. A. paid 15,000,000 of the Pub lic Debt This was the practical work of a Whig Administration! Look on the picture and now on this! The annual expenditures of Mr. Van Bu ren's Administration were $28,000,000! And instead of paying off any Public Debt his expenditures in four years exceeded the income of the Government, '31,000,000! Here was detnocrtic purity and economy lor you: The Tariff oN842 he staled paid $31,000,000, of Ihe Public Debt and left a urplus in the Treasury of $3,000,000! This was a whig meisure! He asked 10 have a tree judged by i's fruiis! Aud what had the 'democratic' tree, now in power, produced? Ii bad produced the laiiffof '40! And what did this tariff do? It reduced the duty one-half, from the tariff of '42, on what? On brandy and oilier distilled spiriis! The duty on these luxuries under the Tariff of 1842, was $i,043,000! By the reduction, ;he revenue is reduced $052,000. And how does Mr. Polk propose to make up the dt-ficiency? Why, Mr. Stewart answered, he has Ihis day sent a message to Congress asking for a lax to be laid on tea and coffee! Wliy did he not recommend ihe duty to be doubled on brandy and distilled spirits? These points Mr. S. enforced with great zeal and ability ,much to the uneasiness of Mr. Cobb, f Georgia, who had a good many questions lo ask of himj A resolution was adopted to put an end to ihe discussion to-morrow at 2 o'clock. So the House will be full. The Wilmot Provi so, if attached, kills the bill. Will it be attached? . That is the question? , The scene presented by ihe appearance of the venerable John Q Adams, into the Hall of the House, yesterday, while the debate was going on, was highly interesting. Mr. Andrew Johnson who was occupying that old familiar desk, assisted iu conducting its former distinguished occupant to it, and in handsome terms invited him to resume it,aud congratulated him upon his return to that Hall where he bad so many years been a constant and attentive member of that body. Mr. Adams made a neat and proper reply, but spohe in a low tone of voice. ' The members present, of all parties, then crowded round "the ol J roan eloquent" to tender their congratulations, some of them with tears in their eyes. Among those to his credit and honor be it recorded, was Mr. Sawyer, of Ohio, who, although a hard man in appearance aud rough in debate, gave signs to-day that he carried a warm heart in his bosom. It always gives me pleasure to record gems of this kind wherever 1 find them,
on the sterile waste of human nature. A member said to me. after witnessing this scene "Well, I will never again cherish the idea that Mr. Sawyer is not a man of genuine good leelingsi" POTOMAC.
The following is the report of this interesting scene: The Hon. John Quincy Adams here made his appearance upon the floor of the House, and the members rising lo receive him, he was conducted to the seat reserved for him by . Mr. Andrew Johnson, who remarked: In compliance with' the understanding with which 1 selected this seal a! the commencement of the present session, I tiow tender to the venerable member from Massachusetts tie seat which I then selected for him, and will(further more congratulate him oil being spared to return to this House. Mr. A. responded." It is with much pleasure that I again return to yotir midst. Had I a more powerful voice, I might respond to the congratulations of my friends and the members of this House for the honor which has been done me. But enfeebled as I am by disease, I beg that you will excuse me. ; COMMERCIAL. , ' NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 17,1847. Flock Tli market has been very heavy, and t sales ot only 1500 bbte. Ohio, at $6,00.
