Mr. Preston came in to the resrue of his colleague; his elerpienee isnlxvaxs interesting, and Mr. Stu pley followed in some remaiks rather ridi culing the opposition to the popularity ef Gen. Jackson. Mr. Mangnm followed, and Mr. Sheplev dosed the farce in a reply to Mr. M tngum's allusion to the Kitchen Cabinet. That produced laughter, and so it ended. One could not help reflecting on the mutability of man, and in relation to John C. Calhoun, hoxv has the mighty fallen! 20 years ago, such men as those now assailing hint xvould not have been listened to; but he has fallen to rise no more, never. In all this rather ludieron scene, I xva gratified to see those master minds, Webster, Chy, Grundy, Lent n, 5ce., sit in silence; and I xvould think they fell that Ihu scene acting before them was rather humiliating than elevating to the character of Amet ican Senators. We have dixers rumor?. It is said that on Monday the President will send in a message, informing Congress and his countiy that the ddlieulty with France is acjusled, and the instalment of indemnity now due is ready and iil be paid xx hen cur Government auihoti7.1 an agent to receive it; and that the President xviil urge the propriety ol liberal apptopriations to put the couaIry in a state of defence. This yni know xx ill be in direct opposition to the ptospects ol passing Mr. Chx s lane bill. II this course is taken by ihe i re sident, it is not probable that Mr. C. land bill, il passed, would meet a favortble reception at the while house. Yours trulx'. tOR 1 IIF. TIMES.

The (pies lion seems to be, 1st. Is it necessary Cot them to have a latgerand hetlet house? 2. tlx. Would it be tight for the cit:z.;n to he lp them to build it? The situation of the house, and ihe largeness of the congregations in attendance in general, answer ihe first question I thiiiK to the satisfaction of all unprejudiced minds; and 2dl. I think il xxoutd be right for the ctiizons to subscribe liberally for ils accomplishment 1st. Because il would be a pulhe. benefit, and would improve our grow ing town; 2d. There would be a room latger than the present meeting house in the basement for night and other meetings, in xvhich the seals, pulpit and stove of the present house would answer very well; and the body of the church could be kept in order for Sabbath meetings; and 3d. The Society have always been liberal in giving the use of their house for public benefits, and doubtless they xvould do it still under proper regulations. Then let in all help, and the undertaking xvould be light, and be much to the credit of the place. I xvould suggest the propriety of building a house 40 feel front by GO deep ihe old xvalls, &c, xvould do considerable towards the new house; and I think a cupalo and bell to ihe church would be very necessary. .V-jrs aNOft, if necessary.

W In I each of the two Governments has tints discox"ercd si just solicitude to resort lo all honoialde means o( adjusting ami cat.Jy the controversy between them, it is a mailer ol congratulation lhat the mediation has been rendered unnecessa1 y. Under such circumstances, ihe an ticipation m ix be confidently indulged lhat the disagreement betxveen the U ntted States and France will not have produced more than a temporary esttangement. The healing clFeets ol V . j tul motives lor a cordial good understanding nettxeen the two Nations, the strong inducements each has to respect and esteem the other, will no doubt soon obliterate from their remembrance all traces of lhat disagreement. Of the elevated and disinterested part the Government of Great Butain has acted, and xvas prepared to act, I have already had occasion to express my high sense. Universal respect, and Ihe consciousness of meriting it, are xvilh Governments as xvilh men, the just rewinds of those xvho faithfully ex ert their power lo preserve peace, restore harmony, and perpetuate good will. 1 may be permitted, I trust, at this lime, without a suspicion of the most remote desire to throw off" censure from the Executive, or lo point it lo anyoiher Department or branch of the"Governnient, to refer to the want of fiK.-c live preparation in xvhich our country was lound at the late crisis. From the nature of our institutions, the movements of ihe Government in preparalion for hostilities must never be loo slow for the exigencies of unexpected xvnr. I tuhmit it Ihen to you, whether the

You wished to know the nexvs cf ihe Indians; xve cannot hear of them in any direction; it is, indeed, reported thai tlu-y are gathering at ihe town of which Powell is chief, but nothing certain is knoxx n, for no scouts can be sent out, as there arc not more men than to guard the posls at which they are stationed, and it is murder to be sending small parties of 40 and 50 men at a time, for the Indians always discover litem, and drive them hack with loss.

We see to day hjrKg in a southerly direction, xvhich are supposed by (hose best acquainted with Ihe; localities ol the country, to be in the neighborhood of Bulow's and Hernandez's plantations; it is probable either that Ihe Indians have burnt these places, or lhat ihev are making a feint lo draw Ihe troops out of St. Augustine, They arc probably concentrating there, ( j about 15 miles from St. AugustineA and, if so, xve stand a chance of a brush with them. I do not know how long we shall he kept within St. Augustine; many of the men are anxious lo go out, but the olncers leel themselves pledged 10 keep them within the city. IMFORTANT FK03I JIEXICO. We are indebted to the New Orleans '-,lie American of Ihe IGlh inst. lor ihe following very interesting inlelligei.ee of the situation and movement of Santa Anna. It xviil be seen that he is in no condition lo atford any serious molestalion to Texas. That garden spot of the wot Id, therefore, may be already rcgartlctl as free. Xishville Banner. By letters received firm Vera Cruz, dated 2nd February, ihe accounts from Santa Anna xvere, that he xvas xvailing

eminent view xxith distrust, all pledges on the pari of the United Slates, in preserving her neutrality. B) accounts from Campcachv, it ap

pears ib( report, xxhu h it has been circulated, that there xveie vcs Is fiit'ng out there, against Texas is false. We hear also by accounts from Tampico, that the state of Tampaulipa, and particularly Tampico and vicinity, is in 11 stale of very great excitement tigainst Santa Anna nnd his advisers; it is feared that another revolution is on the eve of breaking out, so much so, that a body of GOO troops, ordered from Tampico to Texas, xvere detained and more men were ordered from Mexico, toco-operate xxith them in maintaining the present government. By private letters ficm Chehuahua, the dissatisfaction throughout that stale is very great against the despot, and that measures xvere laketi in the different states to overthrow his power, bx drawing him out of Mexico towards Texas. 'God speed,' that the despot may fall, : head again on the md never raise his continent of Amer ica, lhat oanta Anna must lall is inevitable; we see through the mist, the dawn of light and liberty glimmering in every qaarter, and that Mexico and Texas must be free. The Lexington (Kentucky) Gazette, of Feb. 20, says We have received the following intelligence from a gentleman direct from Texas. The volnntccrs from Huntsvillc, Alabama, Lexington and Louisville, Ky., arrived safe at Washington xvhich is noxv the Capilol of this new Republic, and head quarters for the Army. No lighting has been done since the surrender of St. Antonio nor is there a inglo Spaniard bearing arms inTexas, Three mails were anticipated on their xvay to Gen. Cos, from which information was obtained that Santa Anna was unable, lo send Cos any assistance until April or May. The Texians are therefore piepaiing to give him a reception and in all probability such a one as will prevent him front paying his visits too often. They ;:r: enlisting the volunteers and forming a regular army, xx hich is to be not less than 5000 strong, this number they can muster before the first day of May, as volunteers are pouring in ,'rom all quarters, the bounty is 24, and $S per month pay with a litle to obtain COO acres ol land for 2 years services, or until the war terminates. A Literary Cusios:tv.

We do not know that the prize was ever claimed. D.sraicT JeuciE. We have been informed, that the nppoinimcnl of Jesse L. IloJman, (o this office, has been rejected by the senate of ihe United States.

Judge Man.varing wm hospitable, charitable, and in habits of kindness with all his acquaintance, punctual, and honest, in all his dealings, sincere in his friendships; he may be truly pronounced one amongst "the noblest xvotks of God," an honest man. This lillh; tribute of respect is paid to his memory by one xvho ha3 been intimate xvith him for thirty three year, and xvho from hick of memory feel convinced, he is unable to portray half his excellent qualities.
