L J. Walker. This gentleman bus recently been the object of much Fediral vituperation and spleen, growing out uf the very advantageous rate at . which .the late loan, idvertised for byothe qovernment, was taken by Messrs,. Corcoran & Riggs, of the city of Wash- ington. It is, however, but another evidence rot :the tlisgrace.ful means which Federal politicians . resort to, in order to cripple the -energies of `our country, with a view to benefit their own friends either pecuniarily or politically. Every body knows that the late tariff law was predicted by , them as tending, directly and speedi. • ly, to the ruin of the country. Between that law and the a Executive war" our country must be. acme bankrupt in less then a twelvemonth from its going into operation. With a view, however,. to guard against any pecuniary deficiency that might arise sad timporaiily exist from a redar• lion of the tariff, congress authorized , a loan of sufficient amount to meet any deficiency which might 'arise: The war has progressed at a great expense to the country. The tariff of 1840 has 'been in operation long enough to prove to the country that it will more than meet the ordinary expenses of the government; and that domestic ruin—so dolorously predicted by Federal ora. tors-;--will not, indeed cannot . ensue under its operation. But an extraordinary state of af faim isistsi and the resort to a loan is deemed heettaalry. Of course the Secretary of the Tien aurY enters the market to Make , the best arrange meat for the country which ran be,made made, and must therefore sell to the highest bidder. The expttalist, who wishes to take a portion of the lolof eourse knows how much he can 'afford to give and make money by theaperation. Tie knows but little of Lis business if he expects to make others acquaintbd with' be the terms of his offer - fare the sale is agreed upon,—unless he shall do ito with the view to a combination with other bid. " den. In the negotiation of this loan Messrs. Cot' coran & Riggs, of the City of Washington, were the successful bidders, against Prime, Ward & -King,' and their allies of Boston. Corcoran & Riggs made such an oar, as saves to the govern• meat many thousands of dollars; and this act is made the subject of abuse of a talented, energetic and. most industrious public officer. But the fair 'fame of ,Mr. Walker rests upon a baiis too broad I tMd too high to be pulled down by Federal moles . or,trata. He has gainers his present exalted posi tion by the force of.his own .vigorous efforts in the cause of the.People.' Re is appreciated by them; and therefore, need not regard Federal slander and detraction. ,07.7•1 t is stated in an exchange paper, that Gen. Cass once walked over the Allegheny mountains 'barefooted, in search of employment in the East. imioar not how true this may beibut it is well - known that he made a more disagreeable tour than 'that, in the service of his: couniry, on his"way to the Northwestern Head Quarters—being compel led to travel for days in mud and - water half leg deep, his bed a log, to keep him nut of the water, and his food for two days nothing but.green corn. lie always been :withhis country, and for his countryi while ,somii Of the pure and exalted li/igs l7 of this day were fortreat Britain, and opposition to: their country. yet Gen.

A friend having,calleil our attention, sometime ' since, to the Act to regulate the carriage of pas. seng,ers in Merihant vessels," and the circular of the Secretary of the Treasury in relation to it; and deeming the subject of interest to the public gen. erally, , we have thought it best to give a condea. sed statement of the ; provisionita the law upon , the subject, as the stale of our columns has pre. eluded thepublication of the entire law., The law is to go into operation from and after the 3 tat of May, 1E47; end .provides; that the number of passenpve shall be limited to two for 'every five tons horthen of the vessel, by covens house mewl Surernent; children, of whatever ;av, ene to be} l computeitas passengers; therevnust be not morel than two tiersof berths, and a space of not lest six niches between the deck and the lower tier off beribs; the length of each berth to be tot Joel than 6 feet, and a breadth of not Ices than IS inch i es;',a birth of there diniensions to be provided fur each passenger; and no berth to be made lar ger with a %Ica to the accarrintodathin of two' I passengere. There must be en allowance of !d clear supcifteial feet allowed fur each passenger,' whicifis to be unoccupied by any thing except' the stores or luggage of the passenger, if the vet.; set is not to pass within the tropics during the' I voyage;-and if she is to pass within the tropiced I a clear allowance of 20 superficial feet; and the' berths are not to be included in this computation of thorn.. The law imposes a fine of sliO, for each I passenger,,upon every master of a vessel, who I shall bring into the country a greater number of; persons than that above proportioned; and a brie of $3 for each passenger brought in his vessel, it; the berths are not well constructed, and do net conform to; the dimensions above stated. The' provisions of former laws in telatiint to the sup.; ply of water, provisiona,Ac. and the penalties at'' tached to their infraction, remain in force. Sausages TL So'dim.

Herwig produced a number of wit nesses who swore point-blank to the truth of the allegations set forth in the, affidavit. tffi the', other hand, several members of the company sWote positively that, on the night the art + is said to have been committed; Potterfield was quietly reposing in the arms of Morpheus in the rendeivous, dreaming of the joyous days when he shall dance the .

(o.The Michigan Patriot states that a man was tried in that State in 1893, for the murder of an Indian squaw, and sentenced to be hung, loft whose sentence was commuted to imprisonment for life. Recently the man who was the principal witness against him, (and in the absence of whose testimony he could not have been convicted,) on his death bed revealed the true circumstances of the murder, entirely exculpating the on con. demned from any imputation of guilt. Gov. Fetch has therefore released him from confinement, and he has been restored to the embraces of his family and friends, all of whdtn are said to be highly relpeetable: Another strong fact for anti executionists. aj.The Louisville Democrat says Unit Capt.
