Mr. iletcher, of Mass., spoke against the bill as unnecessary for .the wants of the Treasury, and as making a loan under cover of an issue of Treasury notes; and, finally, as being of doubtful constitutionality. Mr. Parmenter replied. Mr. Crockett op

Santa Fe, Aug, 12, 1837. "Thursdav last, the Governor, Don Alvino
Peres, Political and Military Chief of the terlilory of New Mexico, accompanied by Abreu and a small party of soldiers, marched to the Cavada (twenty miles from Santa Fe,) where a large number of malcontents had assembled, composed of the inhabitants from Rio Arriba to Toas, among whom were the Indians livine in that neighborhood, who are partly ci
vilized, and subjects of General Government. Upon the meeting of the two armies which took place near St. Ildefouso, the Governor commanded his soldiers to tire; at which
order all his men went over to the enemy, except twenty-three of which one was killed on the spot, and three or four wounded.
The Governor immediately tied wun an i who could follow him to Santa Fe, where they remained until night, under favor of which shey started upon good horses in order to get as far as possible from their enemies, who knew how to take mere adroit measures
to interc ept them; for, as soon as they disappeared from the field of battle, they despatched the Indians to cut off their retreat by the
Rio Abajo, with orders to spare none of them, which was lii.rr.illv accomplished. The next
day the victors encamped at La Chappelle, which is near the town of Santa Fe and there killed the Governor, Ramon and Mar-

gentleman is about to present to the surviving executor of the illustrious dead. The sarr
phagus is of the form of a coffin, and has been chiselled out of a solid block of Pennsylvania marble, so excavated as to admit of a leaden coffin. The lid is also marble of the purest whiteness and the finest texture. On this is most delicately sculptured the American eagle standing upon a shield, beneath which is seen drapery representing the flag of the Union suspended cross wise from the ton of .i i ' l i rri i

an exquisitely delicate chisel, from the hands
of a workman, Air. John Hill, m the employ of Mr. Struthers. The fleecy folds of the banircr, with the bright and polished stars upon it, are beautifully done, and are highly creditable to the skill of the artist. Underneath the shield, the word WASHINGTON
is cut in sunken letters, so perfectly clean and neat as to give a feeling of entire chaslcness to the whole.

The Toledo Gazette gives an account of rather a mysterious affair, which happened some lime since in Michigan City, in this State.
It happened that a Mr. Jenkins, a merthnnt from Chicago, on his return tour from New York, last fall, called upon his wife's sister,

story is told of a practical feu c'cn'r, which an old Whig of St. Louis lately played off! upon the ball roller of Missouri, Col. Benton. The old gentleman was a merchant on the levee, which is an inclined plane, like the landing at Cincinnati. Times had gone hard with him. The great humbugger's projects and the treasury circular htid curtailed his once
extensive business, and one solitary cask of
sugar, which lay broadside to the inclined
plane of the Icycc, was pretty much all that
was left of his stock in trade. 1 he old gentleman was contemplating this onc cask in the very sullcnness of despair, ever and anon venting sin imprecation upon the authors of his own and his country's miseries. At this mo
ment the great Jupiter Tonans the ball roller, himself, walked up the levee, point blank, to
the broadside of the cask. The Thersites of
the cask could not resist the impulse to hifita
kick. Down it went, rolling and tumbling,
with dreadful certainty, right in the line of
the humbugger's nether extremities. "Solita
ry and alone, said the old gentleman I set
this cask in motion!' With tremenduous exertions, and after performing divers pi rouelles
and pidgeon wings, that would have immortalized a French danceuse, the humbugger escaped the threatened destruction. The Missourians are preparing to start another cask for him, not onc of sugar from which he will not escape so easily. Massillon Ga:.

fifteen, among whom was Miguel Sena, and
five or six wounded, among whom are Jbrahcisco Surrasino, former Governor and Commissary, Apuntis, adjutant of the late deceas ed Governor, Jose Buslamente, and the ser

at this time, though yesterday the report was
