„ who crowded the deck of the steamer. Unfortu
nately, a log came on, as we entered the " n arrows,"
Tittd so - thmse was it that we could'not observe the
inuiles of the river. A universal silence reigned in
the -boat, interrupted only by the quick, sharp voice
of -the : commender, as he alternately - shouted,
"Stop her! " - "Go On!" "Stop her!" Cautious
as iyvvris, in steering through the intricate pas
sage, a his extreme mortification, and the terror of
this westerns, she became immovably stranded on
an oldatone'dyke. The spleen of the captain now
vented itself at every body; and every thing which
came iiildswiy, thinking it impracticable to get
her of before the next spring tide. Captain Wyse
was a wealthy old bawd officer; had an interest
'`.'not,`
only in the " Londonderry," but in all the
: , steanserabelonging to the company; and in his
'vessel, assumed a line of conduct as imperious and
overbearing as ever did s e Reit Admiral
,in the

speaking of, he had sunk a brig and tschooner, be
cause they did not get out of his war. In truth,
he run the-Londonderry right through them, and
they immediately sank.,

way Anxious for an immediate _transit to the
naughty plate, whither the wicked captain wished
her ; 'so, she "'beet a retreit," exclaiming " Gude

In the little room, so much celebrated for the
tragedy which was enacted therein, is shown the
blood of David Rizzio, the Italian minstrel, and
favorite of Mary. The variety of associations
!which are connected with this house, are ton.many
and too important to receive any due share of our
attention here. We thought, and deeply too, of
I the beautiful but unfortunate Mary Stuart as
each memento of that Queen was pointed out to
Jas. Then too we thought of Henry Darnly's un
deserved fate ; of his ill requited love; of the stern,
Unflinching enthusiast, John Knox; of the ambi-
Itious Murray, and his unhappy end; of the senti
mental villain Bothwell; and of the gallant, the tal
ented poet Chatelar, whose imprudent attachment
brought on himself a shameful and ignominious
death. 'These remembrances and they come not;
alrine, they bring with
: them a thousand heart
searching reflections—they preach the Eternal
truth, that the evil and the good—all die; indif..
criminately meet the same fate—death; and as'

ing effusion of his muse is a bright and sparkling
gem. To appreciate the piece, says the corres
pondent of the New Orleans Delta, you must see
the little beggar - boy at the massive church gates,
inside of which is wealth and store—you must
see him heedlessly passed by those who were in•
tended by Heaven to be ministering angels, to the
poor and unfortunate—you see gaiety, wealth and
affluenca . disregarding his humble petitions—you
must hear his soft and melodiousisupplications of
~L imeota par amor de lesusl" and-then you must
see the war vrorn soldier, with' bis trophied scars,
who never stopped to listen to the thunder of can
non, or the elfish of arms, turn aUistening.ear to
the little boy's pathetic appeals, and then putting
his hand in his ocket and giving him perhaps his
last dime. ,

died when abroad, .and she got married to Burke,
who had since died. She was now free again,
and Willing 'to resume her first love. The worthy
couple were , loudly cheered as they drove away
from the theatre in a carriage.
A lady; with whom I became acquainted While
in Glasgow, asked me, on one occasiois, "have you
ever been to Edinburgh'?" , " Never ' , madam,"
replied, "much as I would wish to pay it a visit,
I have never yet formed the resolatiowto go.' l
"Well," said site, "the trip wont cost you much,
and it will not take much time from you; you
can leave this'in the morning, and be back in the
evening; and if you go, I will give you a letter to
my brother, who is governor of Edinburgh Castle,
and has charge of the whole regalia of the Scott
ish nation, as well as its ancient crown." The
lady was so amiable, so very.kind ; the offer was
made in such l a frank, friendly manner, and the
time and place so opportune, that I at once thank
fully embraced it. During the night, I dept little,
and in the morning, in due time, I reached the
terminus of thiEdinboro - and Glasgow Snail-way.
(I thought this the slowest mode of travelling I
ever journeyed by. I have altered my opinion,
however, since I experienced the pleasures of an
Erie Canal trip. Only think of being detained
two weeks on a route which our engagement was
to, go right through in foul: days. The Agent,
however, may look out ; he • will hear from me
yet.)
Well at last "Auld Reekie," the brick built city
is reached, and we are noir in the Capital of Cale
donia. Our introductory letter was duly honored,
and the curiosities, and antiquities of that old cas

ing gaze. Trophies of ancient cluvalry, valor, and
renown; banners, arms, accoutrements, and the great
bauble itself, which report affirmed to be the most
costly crown ih the world as well as the most
ancient. These all lay before me, as indifferent as
if they vivre the veriest, common trash. The New
town, the Auld town, with its sixteen story-high
houses; the Calton bill, Arthur's seat, &c., &c., my
friend and guide the governor, took the trouble of
'bowing me; and then, last, by no means the least,
Holyrood House.
The General Assembly - of the Kirk of Scotland
were then assembled. The "Free f :Church" had
just seceded from the Establishment, and that dis
sent was-now under discussion. Whilst the vote .
was being taken, a large picture of William 3d,
fell from the place it had' occupied, on that wall,
upwards 'of a 'century, and was dashed to the
ground. "Ha," cried a bystander s "that's a non-in
trusion omen." The protest of the dissenters was
a noble one It was • glorious effort in the cause!
Of Freedom. The nations saw it. The people
heard it, and applauded the wise resolve, i. e. a sep- i
aration of the church, from the state. Every one I
who prizes liberty, mast approve the conduct of the
Free Church originator's.
"Go think of it, in 'silence and alone,
Then weigh against a grain of sand, the glories

WEDNESDAY MORNING,NOVEMBER, 24, 1&17.
,
0::r E. W. Cana, United States Newspaper
Agency, Sun Buildings. N. E corner Of, Third" and
Dock,,and 440 N. Fourth stieer—f-is our only au:
thorised agent in . Philadelphia. -
The editor of the Gazette *says, that he will
not argue the question of the boubdary of Texas
with us,-."for it answers itself iii - the acknow:
!edged surrender of the'territory to Spain, under
the treaty of 1819; but it is not-true that Mexi-,
can, American, or any other authmity, (except
late Locofoco authority,)
. defined the Rio Grande
to be the Westem boundary of- Texas."
We never assert any thing—nor do we ever
intend to- - Which we do not believe to be true;
and we generally aim to be pretty cautions in
coming to a conclusioi upon any. point, which
[hay involve controversy. We haie pursued this
course, in relation to the matter of the Texas
boundary; and, inasmuch as . our.statements are
so flatly contradicted by the Gazette, it devolves
upon us to submit the proofs—produce the " au
thorities "—upoti which we predicated our user•
tion that" The Rio Grande, fromlts mouth to its
source, has always been recognized as'the South.
ern [we should have wiitten 'Western] boundarY
of Texas." In searching roc this authority, we
will not look very much into the writings of
Loco Focos," but will giie some such authority,
as would consider it a burning shame, to be even
suspected of having any charity for what they
deem the monstrous heresy of " Locofocoisna."--
How the fact of our _government having once
relinguished to Spain, the territory, ernbraced
within the present limits of Texas, goes to disprove
our assertion in relation to the banndmits of that
territory, we cannot possibly comprehend; and
therefore hope that the Editor,of the Gazette will
enlighten ns on this point; or, that he will inake
an attempt to do so, at least : : for, aiwe now view
the subject, if the fact stated by us in relation to
the cession to Spain, sustains the assumption of
the Gazette, it also clearly establishes. another
point, which is certainly of some Importance--
that Texas has no acknowledged bOundaries; or,
indeed, that there is no such . territory as that
which we have recognized "under 'the name of
Texas.
We have asserted that " the Rio Grande, from
i:s mouth to its source, has alwayi been recog
nized as the Western' boundary of Texu." ,The
grounds upon whiCh we asserted this to be the
fact, are, that France so recognized and asserted
it in 1603, when we purchased from her the
Louisiana territory, of which TezuWas claimed
to be 'a part ;—that, in 1818,. when (in order
to leave no ground of complaint towards us, on
t.e part of Spain,) the Sabine was adopted as
the boundary between our country and the
territory of Spain, the Rio Grande (or Rio Bravo
del Nor e) was recognized as the Western limit
of the territory relinquished;—that, in - our recog•;
nition of the independence of the United States
of Mexico, reference was expressly. made to the
Rio Grande, as the Western limit of the territory
we had relinquished to Spain, and which was
now free from her authority ;—that, when Texas
assented her independence, she declired . her West
ern boundary to be, the Rio Grande ;—that, in our
firat treaty with the Republic of . Texas, we
recognized thate, as her true limits, which had
been first sold to us by France, afterwards redid•
quished by us to Spain, and then acknowledged
as a part of the Mexican States, when we recog
nised the independence of Mexico. •
To sustain the position that we have taken, in
relation to this boundary, we can refer to the ad.
ministration of every President, (from Mr. Jetler•
son down,) as authority. Mr. Madison,. while
Secretary of State, in a letter dated March 21,
1604, announcing the acquisition of the Louisiana
territory, andvgiVing his own views and those of
Mr. Jefferson, says, that Louisiana "extended
westwardly to the Rio Bravo, otherwise called
Rio del Norte. Orders were accordingly obtained
from the Spanish authorities, for the delivery of 'all
the posts on - the west side of the Mississippi."—
He also, further, -declares that Mr. Laussat,the
French commissioner 'l4, delivend the possessionof 1
Louisiana to us, announced the Del Norte u its true
boundary." ,
•
In another letter of Mr. Madison's, of July 87
1804, he announces the opposition:of Mr. idler.
son to the relinquishment of any tetcilory whatever
eastward of the Rio Bravo."
Mr. Monroe, as: Secretary of State, in letters,
dated January 9,1816, and June 10,181 6, says that
"no one can question our title to Texis," . and our
title to the Del Norte is as clear l as to the island of
New Orleans "
„ •
Mr. Adams, in his letter of I 2thltfarch, 1818,
to Don Louis de Onis, the Spanish Minister, says,
” The claim nj France always did extend westward
to the Rio Bravo," and " she always claimed the
territory which you call Texas, as being within
the limits, and forming a part of Louisiana; " and
be further says,—." Well might Mestirs. Pinckney
lind Monroe write to M. Cevallos, in 1805, that the
claim of the United States to the boundary of the
Rio. Bravo was as clear , as their right to the inland
of New Orleans." And, in a letter of the 31st of
October, 1818, says " our title to Texiss is estab-
lished beyond the powerof further c4ntroveray."
Mr. Clay, in his speech of April JB2O, on the
treaty of 1819, by which this territory was relit'.
qnished to SpOin, said, "our title to the Rio del
Norte was as well founded as it was to the island
of New Orleans." And, in his Raleigh letter of
April 17, 1844, he says,---" The;United States ac
quired a title to Texai, extending, as I believe, to
thi Rio del Norte,- by the treaty of Louisiana."
Mr. Webster, in July 1842, in a letter to our
Minister in Mexico, maintains that, by the treaty
of 1819, the territory-. as far west as the Rio Grand'e
was confirmed by us to Spain.
The preamble to our treaty with Mexico of
Jeinuary 12, 182.9, recites the treaty of 1819 with
Spein, an:di declines that " the said treaty having
been sanctioned at a period ' when Mexico consti
tuted, apart of the Spanish monarchy:, it is deem
ed necessary now to, confirm the validity of the
aforesaid treaty of limits, regarding it`as still in
force, and binding , between the U. S. of America
and the United Mexican States." And , " the con
vention'With Texarof bounditries,"(as it Is term
ed,), concluded on the 25th of April, 1828, de.
clares that "the treaty, of. limits Made and conclu
ded on the 12th of J'anuary, 1828, between the
United - States of:Antenna, on the one, part, and
the United Mexican States, on the other, is binding
upon the republic of 'Texas, the same having been
entered into attime when Texal formed a pert
of'dm Mexican States."ss

These two treaties point distinctly to the west•
ern bouiniery of Texas, as it wseunderstood to be,

The Ttus Boundary;
}.`
her independence; and, in het. organic law, we find
the following desigantion'of komidaries
.Beginning at the: mouth' of the,. Sabine river,
and running west along the; Gulf of.'Melico, three
leagues:from lind r to the , mottili of the Rio Grande;
thence up theprincipal stream of said river to its
source;; thence d north to the forty second degree
of north latitude;
thence along the • boundary line,
as defted,in treaty between the United States
and Spain, to the beginning: and that the President
be, and is hereby authorized and required to open
a,negotiation with the government of the United
States of. America, as soon as, in his opiaion, the
public _interests require it, to ascertain,and de
fine the boundary line,,as agreed upon in the said
treaty."
Followed up by this assertion of her by
the Independent Republic of Texas, we have the
Treaty, ratified by Santa Anna, (the - Presidentl
Dictator, add Commander in , chief of Melico,) on
the 14th May 1836, with , the governmeo of:Tex
as, and which treaty was duly recognised by tbe
other authorities of Mexico. Articleflph of this
treaty recognizes the boundaries of Texas, the
same as they had ever been defined, and as she
had asserted them. ".And a further "convincing
proof that all parties recognised the Rio Grandees
the western boundary of Texas, is found in the
orders of general Woll, dated at the head quarters
of the Mexican army, Mier, June 20th, 1844.
The - third- section of that order is as follows:
.3. Every individual who may be found within
one league from the bank of the Rio Bravo, willbe
regarded at a favorer and accomplice of the usurpers
of that part of the national territory, - arulas a :mi.
for of his country; and after a summary trial, shall
receive the about punishment."
He was i to be "regarded is a traitor" and punish.
ed according to the articles of war.
We think we have now given KIM "Mexican,
American, and other authority," to priftle, this; the
Rio Grande is the true western.boundarrof Texas;
but we have not yet given a single iota of "Loco
Foco authority" to sustain our position. We
might give some of.this description; and in add Pion,
We will give some that is swt guile "Loco Foco,"
but which, at this day would be d i scarded as
"Whig" authority, by those who odes went "for
Tyler therefore, without a why or a wherefore."—
We quote from the annual message of President
Tyler, at the opening of the session of Congress of
The Texas which was ,ceded to Spain by.the
Florida treaty of 1819, embraced all the country
now claimed-by the State of Texas, between the
Nueces and the Rio Grande. The republic of.
Texas always claimed this river as her western
boundary: and in her treaty made with Santa
Anna, in May, 1836, be recognized it as such- By
the constitution which Texas adopted in March.
1836, senatorial and -representative districts were
organized, extending west of the Noeces. The
Congress of Texas, on the 19th of December, 1836,
passed " an act to define the boundaries of the re
public of Texas," in which they declare the - Rio
Grande, from its mouth to its source, to be their
boundary; and by the said act they extend their
"civil .and political.jurisdiction" over the country
up to that boundary. Daring a period of more
than nine years, which intervened between the
edopron of her Constitution end het annexation as
one of the States of our-Union, Texas asserted and
exercised many acts of sovereignly over the terri
tory and inhabitants west of the Nueces. She or
ganized and defined the limits of counties extend
ing to the Rio Gaande. She established courts of
justice, and extended her juJi_ial system over the
territory. She established a casto%_ house, and
collected duties,, and also post otWtes and post
roads in - • it. She established .a land office, And
issued numerous grants for land, within its limits.
A senator and a representative residing in it, were
elected to the Congress-of the republiC,•nnd served
as such before the act of annexation took place.
In both the Congress and Convention of Texas,
which gave their assent to the terms of annexation
to the United States, proposed by our Congress,
were representatives residing, west 'of the Nueces„
who took part in the act of annexation itself.—
This was the Texas which, by the act of our
Congress of the 29th of December, 1845. was
admitted as one of the States of our-Union.- • ,
A single " Loco Foco" authority may suffice;
and we only present this, as a fair offset to any sim
ilar authority which the editor of the Gazette may
be willing to quote. We extract from a letter of
Mr. Bsurox, of May 4th, 1844, as published in
the Globe:—
"Our . tale to the, whole of Texas had been
previously vindicated by Mr. Adams himself, who
showed from La Ilarpes.Journal, and other early
writings, that the French, under whom we claim•
ed, had established themselves under La Salle, at
the Bay of St. Bernard, the oldest settlement in
that province, upwards of thirty years before the
Spaiiarids trussed the Rio Del Norte.
"The test and most numerous' harbors on the
continentiecoast of the Gulf of Mexico lie be
tween the Sabine and the mouth of the Rio del
Norte. Ae a naval and commercial power, own
ing the great river which carries the commerce of
an empire into the Gulf, we bad the greatest need
ofthese harbors. By the acquisition of Lou;sena,
we obtained them; by the new-boundary, estab
lished on our southwest frontier in 1819, we gave
them away.
"Betore the establishment of this boundary, all
the country to the west of
,the lower Mississippi,
quite lotlw Rio‘del Norte, was ours."
We have thus presented a long array of teati
mony, of no mean - character, to show that we
have not assumed a position, on this subject,
which we were not fully prepared to sustain. A
large portion of "it is of a character, at once to
sileice any man, or any set of men ! who may, for
their own sinister purposes, °ilium ignorance of
the truth, take an opposite position; and we 'hold
that, if all those who might be relied upon as au
thority, in America or in France, asserted to the
contrary, TIM vacr of Mexico having, by treaty,
assented, to the declaration of boundaries, as
claimed by Texis, would be sufficient to silence
them. But,so far from being limited to this single
point, we'have the assertion by Texas; the ac
knowledgment byMexico ; the uniform testimony,
of every- administration, back to Mr. efferson's
in our own country; the cession 'of the territory
called Texas by our government• to Spain, embra
cing the identical boundaries referred to; end the
uniform assertion by France of her right of, pro
perty in the same-territory. All this may ix any
thing but proof ;and yet' we cannot imagine how
a reasonable man could - ask for stronger or more
unquestionable evidence. We therefore charge it
uponthe Edttor of - the Gazette,,that, i n making
the assertion, "Zr rs not rime mai Mexican,
Jinn-icon, or any other authority, (except late loco
foco authority,) defined the Rio. Grande to be the
western boundary of Texas," he has minifefted
culpable, ignorance of the facts in th ; or he
, e case ,
has been actuated by a worse principle-a
- deter
ruination to try 'and mislead the readers of his
paper, upon a point of great importande to every
citizen or the United States. We are'not willing
to . attribute to him a tase motive in making the
assertion. '

Clay ileeting in honinllla,
Adcording to the reported proceedings in all, the
Louisville papers, the Clay meeting in that city
must have been a tumultuous affair. Mr. Clay's
Lexington Resolutions were adopted, but not with
out considerable opposition, instead of the address
and resolutions repotted by Judge Nicholas. The
notorious. Wen. J. Graves, was the leading spirit
in the Meeting, acid the peculiar champion, of Mr.
Clay. An additional resolution was offered by
Judge Nicholas, and adopted, declaring tbat if
the House shall findthat it is the intention of„the
President to prosecute the war for thepurpose of
foreign conquest, greatly beyond what a decided ma
jcnity of, the Nation rquires, it will be the duty of
that boily to withhold supplies. How mach con
quest the nation requires, we are not informed.

The Captain of the steamer Caroline writes, by

for St. Louis, came. - in collisian, on Thursday I
