BRITANNIA .1 Marriage in High Life Prceented.—A daughter of the Duke of Buckingham was about being clan drtinely married on Saturday at St. Geurge's Church, Hanover Square, London, to the son of Col. Gore Langton. The officiating minister sent word to the ladV's father before the ceremony was per formed, when the Duke arrived. and a painful scene of altercation took place. On being guaranteed to be held harinlesS front any legal consequences, the minister refused to perform the ceremony, and the young lady was taken home by the Duke, her fath er. The Minister should hate been cuffed. The Fracas in the /loos , of Cometans. - -The fra cas which took place in the House of Commons on Friday night last was likely to have terminated in a "meeting." Col. Peel. on leaving the house, addressed a few NVOITS to Mr. Disraeli, so unmis takable that the latter deputed Lord George Ben tinck to demand an explanation. Lord George was pe:brred by Col. Peel to Capt. Roos. These gentlemen contrit ed to heal the sore without bring. ing the principals together.: The acrimonious at tacks of Disraeli on Peel savor of personal and dis appointed feelings, and as such excites little sym pathy out of doors. The Liverpool Courier of the 29th April' contains an abash e article.upou the proceedings of congress in relation to Oregon, which country it carts ••a strip of indifferent - territory betwecen the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean." We find nu allusions of consequence relative to the Oregon control ersy.

A senator has coriceive,l n bright idea, re discovering sonic explode:l claim to the Oregon territory-founded upon the treaty of Utrecht; but there has been no substantial change in the state of the question. ' This little theoretical activity of research is accompanied by nu practical advance on the part of the war section. On the contrary, the mere lapse of time seems to be.helping the sulsSidence of escitement.—London Sp it ct ate r, May 2. The Lit erpoorAlbion of April 21), says:- -Though the intelligence from America, by the Hibernia teas at first considered of 'somewhat seri ous import, in consequence of the last. message of President l'olk, niost people ecem to agree, upon iellectiun, that there is nothing in it either lonia dable or alarming'," The Albion says that the recommendation of an appropriation of $70,000 (!) for the navy is noth ing out of the way, and it does not entertain any apprehension that the peaceful relations of the two nations, will be interrupted. The Liverpool Mail, April 25, thinks arbitration the only way in which the Oregon qu'estion could be settled, and adds—. "We contend that. if the United States, by vir tue of their own legislative act, avail themselves of a dissolving provision in a treaty which is con. fEtll'ay yreerence, and which reference they refuse, under circumstan ces oflimsive and menacing, they thereby by this dissolution. do, to all intents and purposes, openly DECLARE WAR AGAINST ENGLAND!

A few d lys will most probably put us in posses sign of the decision of the senate of Washington. We have no doubt what it shall be. If attached to it. there be any recommendatory conditions of caution, or renewed neguciatious, they will have no effect whatever upon the got eminent of this'' country. No matter who is minister, the policy of England is noW unalterable, because the nation has pronounced its opinion, and procrastination can only further embroil both nations."

Provision riots have taken place at Pethati, Ca bir and Roscarberry. Provision boats comic from Waterford last Week were attacked and plun dered by numerous parties, and the goods carrie, away in all directions. Complaints are rife in all parts of the country with respect to the high price of Indian corn (in Sligo, it is stated to be more expensive us an arti cle of food than third-rate Irish flour,) and the difficulties the poor peaple experience in getting it ground for use. Emigration from Ireland to the continent of North America is proceeding on a large scale. A vessel left Limerick a few days ago with 420 emi grants for Canada, 40 of whom had their passage paid by their landlord, Another vessel is about sailing from the same port with 120 emigrants for Quebec. In Cork the strongest terms of disapprobation are applied to the government for the course it is pursuing in re:erence to the distress in that city and the exertions making there fur its relief. The au thorities complain that all their applications lin government aid are rejected on sume technical point or other. The American packet Camelia, Capt. French, WOO tuns, arrived at Cork u few days since, bringing Indian corn to the amount Of 25,000 bushels, with about 10,000 barrels of meal.

Gen.. Taylor entered the Army in 1808, imme diately after the attack on the Chesapeake, and has been in the service of his country from that nine to the present. Having entered the army as a Lieutant of Infantry, he had risen to the com mand of a company at the beginning of the last Lear. For his gallant defence of Fort Harrison on the sth September, lb 12, President .Madison conferred upon hitt] the bre‘ et rank of Major, and . he is now the obfrsl brerri in the army. In 1.832 he became Colonel of the Pith Infantry; with this regiment he went to Florida in 1836, where he was always foremost in danger. On the 25th December, 1836, Col: Taylor, at the bead of a detatchment of about 500 men, com posed of parts of the Ist, 4th and 6th regiments of U. S. Infantry and some Missouri volunteers, tact alMut 700 Indians, under Alligator, Sam Jones and Concoo-che, on the banks of the 0-ke-cho-bee. This battle was sought by the Indians, for the day before the engagement, Col. Taylor received a challenge from Alligator, telling him where to find him, and bantering him to CAM on, Cot Taylor desired nothing better, and immediately pushed on, at rapid march to the expected place of the battle-ground, fearful that the wily Jodie!' might change his purpose. The Indians had a strong position' in a thick swamp, cm crud in front by small stream, whose quicksands rendered it almost impassable, but Col. T. posted through the quick sands and swamps in the face of a deadly fire from a concealed foe, driving the Indians before him. The action was long and severe. The Indians yielding,,the ground inch by inch, and then only at the point of the bayonet. Alter three hours of bloody contest, the Indians were routed and pur- , sued with great slaughter, until night. This was the last stand the Indians ever made, in a large holy, and the only instance in which they volunta- I rily gave battle. Though Cot Taylor won the day, it as at an expenstvofl:39 killed and wounded— more than one-fourth of his force. Two colonels (Col. Thompson of the sth Infautry, - and Col. Gen try of the Missouri •Volunteers.) fell at the head of the troops. Capt. Van 'Swearingen, and Limits. Brooke and Carter, also -- fellin - the - eugagnment. During the whole of the engag,ement, Col. Tay lor remained on horse-back, passing from point to point, cheering his men to the conflict, and expo sed to the Indian rifle every moment. The spirit with %%Inch the commander and all his force en tered into the conflicts, was exhibited M some ‘er.- ses written on the occasion, by a soldier. ~ T here's•battle in your hammock black, There's lightning in your cloud, Hark! llark! to the music, comrades dear, FortliO Indian yell is load, • For the Indian yellis loud, my boys, And the rifle's.flash is free, But the field of brittle is.our home, And happy, happy, men are we; Axidltappy menare we, &c , For this hattle, - 31i- Po .Seeretary-of War, rendemetmerited praike to all engaged; in his corn uninientiort to Conirress, , . :The'brciet ofr.Brigadier Genrrat was ,Crateertedupoh Col.'
