Talk of -Arthur the Great, Federick `the Great, and Alexanderthe Great! What were they to our great AnTaCrn, who, on the filed of .Waterloo, totally discomfited one greater than them all? And your Poets bide their diminished beads, at the name of . own darling, Tom Moore ;" and your novel writers fall prostrate be fore the surprising genius, which invoked the wit of inimitable Mickey Free! And yet, all the honor, all the reward this veritable individual claimed for his services, was that when the ladies (God bless them!) wud be either reading his high ly intelligiat pirrigrinations in the piniUhula, they wud give him a cher, with the round :—" Arrah, Micky, now can't you be aisy The County Down-for bonny lasses, against the world; but what have I to do with the Ladies?— Verily, nothing. This being Leap year, too, were I to introduce a few here, the most handsome one might choose to fancy me, and of .course I dare not refuse the tempting offer! But, to the point . My friend Edward Gratton and I entered the County Down, a little below Newry, made War. renspoint and Rosstraver, two pretty little villages, whiCh are resorted to in the summer months for sea bathing. Directly opposite, in the County South, stands Carlingford, so justly famous for its delicious oysters. Then there was Caitlewellan, (Lord Roden's Town,) and Slieve Donard, and the Mourne Mountains, at the foot of which, the fish ing village of Newcastle, inauspicuoinsly looks out on the Irish Sea. We were here informed, that a short time previous to our visit, an im mense shoal of fish having been on the coast, the boats were manned by every band that could be bad for the employment of cathing them They were not lOng at sea, when a dreadful storm arose; the boatmen prepared to return, and then pulled tor their lives. The storm fiend mocked their efforts; the waters broke and overwhelmed them ; ay, every man of them found a watery grave in sight of their peaceful dwellings. This visitation of Providence bereft above 200 fami lies, of husbands, fathers and brothers! A little below Donagbadee, in the bay of Dun drum, lay the Ocean Leviathan, the Great Britain. ' When viewing her gigantic hull, on that ocaasion. we had not the remotest idea, that ever she would be afloat rgain, but Mr. Brunel!, more fortunate than his competitors—and be it remembered, that the very best Engineers of ,Europe and America, visited, with the intention_ of raising her—succeed ed in floating her. She has been duly repaired, and - the curious in such matters, may gratify their curiosity in inspecting her, if they only take the trouble of going to Orleans, at which post she will run once a month .with the European Mail. Having taken a regular survey of the Down shire coast, from Newry to Bangor. and of the Isle of Man, we proceeded to Dowupatrick, where in one grave, repcse the mortality of three Saints :—BRIDGET, P•TRICIC and COLUTBRILLE On Sunday morning, my liberal friend, Grattan, accompanied me to the Episcopal Church. Why ! I did not question. The congregation was large and extremely fashionable. In the pew next to us, sat the officers of the Cavalry and Infantry, who filled the body Of the church. Before us sat the Marchioness of —, (1 dare not be more particular.) and her amiable daughters. Edward whispered to me, Do you observe those ladies at I their small talk. I'd bet a sovereign they are chatting about my appearance here to day. Well, if they are, though a Catholic, they'll find that 11 can chaunt the service as we'l as themselves. I'll give them something to talk !" and to it, be went,l but no sooner did the fair ones behold him rise, and join in the choir, than they (perhaps as a speci men of their aristocratic manners) gave vent to a low, bitter, or ironical laugh, on observing which, Edward looked G 4 pounders at them, shut / qte of his eyes firmly, and continued-singing before, which so disconcerted the amiables at they resumed their seats. Ere the service was concluded, a tall and rather good looking, dragoon, entered the church, his sabertash and' accoutrements so bespattered with mud, that it was evident he had had a severe ride ; and pro. seeding to where the officers sat, he presented the Colonel with a large packet, the red seal 01 which bore the Royal Arms. No further notice was taken, of the interruption, and on leaving the church, after service, Edward and I walked, or sauntered directly to the residence of his fath er. We had not gone far, however, when we were over4ken by_the glittering carriage of the Marchioness, who appeared to be informing her self of the conduct of Gratton, and just as it drove up, we heard her mention his name. The wild youth needed not another word; be walked from the footpath over to the carriage, and milk tug,a.: deferential bow, he inquired of the Mar chioness if she bad been speaking to him?. " No , str," said she quite stiff, and with a formal jecture, "No sir, I was not." " 'then, madam, .if you were not speaking to me, you.were most:certain ly speaking at me ; however, the consequence is not great : good morning. madam !” Saying which he rejoined me. He then told me, that he de lighted to perplex the ladies of this family, the "old one" dreading that he would, some day, run off with the best of her amiables. He was de scended from as high a " stock " as they were; hail as good possessions as they had ; 2nd wanted only a title to place him on a par. After dinner, we learned that the military had , got the Rocr," and were to march in two hours ; so we determined to witness the departure. Ar- rived in the barrack yard, all was confusion and,. hurry., Sweethearts looking for their lovers; cre ditors with profit and loss faces as longer my arm, earnestly pressing the Tayment of their bills; draymen, and others, packing up baggage; and manyanother bustling item, as the drapers would say, too numerous to mention here. The non. comosistio . ned officers had some trouble in collect. ing the privates; but with the last tip of the long roll on the drum, they fell into rank; and the • mus ter having proved satisfactory, a few preliminary ,orders were given, and the band was ordered to the right of the wing.

For Telegraphic Despatchesr-see•next Page. The President.—The Federalists. The Federal leaders in Congress, and the Federal editors in every quarter, have recently had their patriotic indignation aroused. to the highest pitch in consequence of a communication from the President to the House of• Representatives. The origin of this outburst lies in a resolution, adopted by the Federal majority in theHouse,calling upon the President for "any instructions which may have been given to any of the iofficers of the army or navy of the United Stat u es, or other persons, 1e regard to the return of President General Lopez 1, de Santa Anna, or any other Mexican, to the re public of Mexico, prior or subsequent to the order of the President, or Secretary, of War, issued in January, 1846, for the march Of the army from the Nueces river across 'the stupendous deserts' which intervene to the Rio Nraude i that the date of all such instructions, orders, and correspondence be set forth, together with-the instructions and orders issued to Mr. Slidell; at any time prior or subsequent to his departure for Mexico, as Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States tolhat repub. lic," and requesting the President also to I .‘ corn• municate all the orders and correspondence of the government in relation to the return of Gep. Pare des to Mexico." The demand tins made imperatively; being di vested of the usual reservation to the President— ,, if not deemed incompatible with the public in terest all similar calls; and the President very respectfully declines answering the call to any greater extent than he would have clone, if the usual call had been made. ;He has submitted to the House a considerable amount of correspondence in relation to the ibatter ; but informs that body, that a large proportion of that which is embraced within their call, is of a character not to be made public at this time, without great injury to the public interest. With regard to the British steamer having car ried Parades into Vera Crnz, a correspondence has taken place between Mr Buchanan and the Ameri. can Jlinisterat London, who laid the case before the British Government, which has drawn forth the following letter from Lord Palmertson < Foreign Office, Nov 16, 18.17. Stu answer to your letter of the Sth instant, (ultimo,) complaining of the . con duct of Capt. May, of the British mail steamer Teviot," in having conveyed / General Parades from Havana to Vera Cruz, in the month of Au gust, I have the honor to state to you, that the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, having investigated the circumstances of this affair, her Majesty's government have informed the directors of the Royal dlail Steam4acket Company, to wh o m the steirner *Te , iot " belongs, that the directors are bound to testify, in a marked manner, I their disapproval of Capt May's conduct, in hav-1 tog thus abused the indulgence afforded to the company's vessels by the government of the 17111- ted States, tint the directors of the company have accordingly stated to her Majesty's government, , that they wilt immediately suspend Capt. May from his coftyn and; and that they publicly and (flannelly ciihdemn any act on the part of their office-a, which may be regarded as a breach Of faith towards the government of the United States, or as an infringement or invasion [if the regula tions established by the United States officers in those ports of Mexico whiCh are occupied by the forces of the United States. I base the honor I r be, George Bancroft,/ke , &c. Among the documents relative to the admission of Santa Anna, the following, from Com. Connor The very nature of the duties imposed on the President of the United States . , requires that much, in relation to our intercourse with foreign pow ers, should be left to his judgment, and that of his constitutional advise* This has been denied under no administration'', since the origin of the government; and nothing but malignant party spleen would Attempt to make it appear that the President was pursuing any other than the clear line of duty, in Fe fusing to comply with the demand of the House, made in the manner it has been. It nothing but an honest desire for. the good of the cOtintry had prompted the majority, they would at once have recognized the position in which their call, if complied with, would place our affairs with Mexico; and, instead of determining to force, before the country and world, matters which any Statesmen would know ought not to be made 'Public, they would have so framed their call, at, to secure all which was necessary to be made public; or, if they ,could not act without all the correspondence, they might at least have offered some assurance that it would not be made public, until there could be no disadvantage in doing so. - But, in any event, this is a mere question of constitutional privilege, of which every President has, to a greater or less extent, availed himself. Mr. Polk has a right to avail himself of an& constitutional prerogatiee which has been enjoy" ed by aby of his Predecessors . ; arid yet, notwith standing thie, there is no eat of hie -&ssl . ministra lion, 'which 'goes to fa Rin:film a greater desire to entrench himself behind, his constitutional privileges, than other Presidents have done. In deed we think'. that a contrary Charge might be much more easily - sustained. All the bluster now made by the Federal leaders, is not to be looked upon, by men having any knowledge of our politico] history, a 3 any thing but mere party clap.trap, for the purpose of trying to gull the People.

We learn from it that the number of volunteers and militia enrolled is 5,101 divided into 1,736 companies, 173 regiments, 30 brigades; 30' Briga dier and 17 NLijor Generals; and that, to arm this force, the State has 15,268 muskets, 4,76 S lilies, and about 7,000 swords, besides cannon and small arms.

Thomas Williams, EN , is thought to be the author of an editorial in the Alleghenian, headed, Delegate system," in which this paragraph oc- P•LHLaSTDY That Thomas Williams, Esq., was the choice of the Whig party rn this county, for Congress. we are fully persuaded. His sterling integrity as a man and a politician was admitted—his experi ence as a legislator was known to be equal to any emergency—his ability in ready debate was well known to the State and to the Union—he was no political cah melion—his honor waa never suspected among the members of the bar, neither could any. man charge him with speculation upon the fears or wants of a client. He never took lessons in the Vicar of Bray" school. Ho is a man of principle in proportion to his interest—and yet he is overlooked in a Whig convention. And huw shall we account for this, but on the ground that the party leaders recognize the claims of no man not connected with the Regency."

As we learn from the Si. Louis Union, Mr. O'R. announces himself ready to complete the whole line to the Pacific Ocean, within twelve months after the passage of a Congressional bill for the purpose. Truly this is a project worthy of the age. A few days ago we spoke of its immense importance to the Gouernment and people—the union of the Atlantic and Pacific by "links of lightning"—giving to the inhabitants along ) the American shores of the two great oceans, instant communication. The subject is worthy of Con gresdonal attention. (c).

We have the pleasure of announcing the arrival of Mr.Armee of Boston, a dietingiiiihed Lec hirer, who will deliver his introductory this evto ing, in Temperance natl.! We bespeak for him a large audience. We understand his subject wilt be " Commercial Guaranteeiam." " To LET."—We are astonished at the number of hoiises, offices, store rooms, &c, now offered.— We eannot see how landlords can , dare attempt to raise the rents. ',We noticed, in one square, that every brick houie had a AT° Let" on it. Whole blocks, (particularly new ones,) will be in the market. Now, we say again, lei tenants resist the impo sitions of property•holders. Houses of all kinds will be plenty—the first ,of April will find hun dreds vacant. 'The price should be lowered in stead of raised. t —We see the Alleghenian notices a new scheme of speculation thus • have been told that there have been cer tain persona engaged in speculations upon house , rent in this city. The plan is, to rent without any intention to Occupy, and, subsequently those rent ers 'sub let to the highest and best bidder. Own ers of property should . guard against; genteel swindlers of ; this description, and tenants would do well to protest against encouraging-imposters of so mean a class. We propose to publish the names of such persons as shall be found engaged in a business both disreputable and oppressive, calculated to render the poor houseless, or drive them into miserable sheds, that will afford them no protection from the 'peltings of the pitiless storm."' NIGHT POUCH—The Police Committee ap pointed for the present year, is an excellent one, in iiurjudgment. We hope, and 81;) do all our citizens, that they may exert themselves in securing a more efficient night Police, or in making such- regula tions as will render the present force of more val ue. Some change is called for. In the judgment of the Committee is reposed the plans for , a re form. It would be unjust to condemn the entire Night Police, for we know that many of the membety are most vigilant and excellent men; but that a few are totally unfitted for the place, we are cr. fident. Such should be removed. The Mayor is well aware Of the character of all, and as an im• partial officer, • should; and,.no doubt, will re port those who h ~ e been derelect in duty doting his administration. 07 The election for city.ofacers is over, and not much satisfaction his been given to the whigs generally. Many aspirants for places have been sorely disappointed, and they have sworn hostility to the members who "flung them," and one de feated candidate has • declared that " he is done with the whigs." We know but little of the , family quarrel, and care less. It originated, as we are told, in the whig caucus—the members from the -new Wards bolting outright. We do not know how many of the caucus Candidates were elected. A spirited opposition was made to them. The Democrats were. not organized, and each one voted as best suited him: .One Democrat 'was elected, over his Whig competitor—we mean our friend R. M. Young, (Who sings Teddy the Tiler so well ;) Was elected Board Measurer for the Ninth Ward. Tut Hays Buntstant.—We understand that officer Scott, of Allegheny, arrested a man named Hubbard, on Moiday night, on suspicion of having committed the offence. He was an in- mate of 'the house. The circumstances appeared strong against him. Yesterday morning Mrs. Hays and the servant girl, made information before Mayor Campbell, upon Ilia bearing of which, Hubbard was fully committed. He wilt be indicted for a more hein ous offence than burglary. Artnitaws* SALoon.—The attractions are still kept up at this establishment, notwithstanding the publication of the .01d Hundree " Prize Song! The audiences are tolerably good. To-riight,there will ,be another excitement; a silver watch is to be awarded to the author of the best conundrum, and a hat to the author of the sezond best. For particulars, see hills.

CT When lawyers from adjoining counties come to this city, they should praztice as little at the bar as possible. The sad effects of such national indulgence, was Tanifested on Monday evening A lawyer was found on the steps of a house on Second street, in a most forlornly joyful condition. An old acquaintance took . him in, and dad him cared for kindly. The weather yesterday was remarkably fine; and business min talked of an early spring! But 4et them not be too hasty—we'll have cold enough yet! We. hope . so,at all events. The Ice Houses are not Medi yet;and it is important to ev ery class of people that there should be a good sup ply for the summer. Mrsrsaious DIBAPPEARANCE.-A lad about twelve years of age, son of a Mr. Scott, Second Ward, Allegheny, was sent to this side on Satur day, by his mother, for some article, and has not since been heard of. His parents are in great trouble. No clue to the cause of his disappear ance has been discovered. 0 :7. Mayor Campbell of Allegheny, has issued a Proclamation calling for an election in the First Ward, on the Fourth Friday of January, for a mem ber of Common Counid, in the room of E. B.
