In order to protect the lower portion of the Municipality from inundation a levee has been constructed along the New Canal.

At onetime , night before last it was thought that there would.be some dieter• banes, resulting from the excited feeling of-the pee pin ; watchmen were placed to guard the levee, but in spite of their precautions several openings were made thus letting the water through MO the lower part Of the Municipality. We have heard - it stated that one of our Aldermen is responsible fbr this act. Our intelligence from the crevasse yesterday leads us to belieVe that it will soon be clOsed; Those pr am:ls-Who arrived from there express this opinion de cisively. Yet the rapid rise or the water in the rear of the city!,shows that a vast quantity must still be pouring through, the opening above. HOW long this is to 4contiauia will soon be settled. . , SW Great excitement prevailed last night along the Canal, where a vent number of people-were as. teambled-4oute expressing a determination to cut away the levee, and others to protect it: It was feared that serious results might be the consequence and thata collision might take place.

Tlio Ittesicturt a.asolutions. We publish below the Resolutions of the Missouri Legislature, egginst which Col. Bunton has appealed to the people of that State : Jacksoottoa Resat sit lou s. Resolved by. the Genera/ ,Assembly cf the State r Missouri. 1. That the Federal Constitution was the result of a compromise bgtween the conflicting interests of the States which brined it,;d is nopart *1 thatin strement is to be found an delegation' of power to Congress to legislate on the subject of Slavery, es cepttag some special provision', having in view the prospective abolition :attic. African slave trade, and for the recovery of fugitive slaves; any attempt therefore oaths part of Congrees to legislate on the subject, so as to elect the institution of slavery in the States, in the District of Columbia, or in the i Territories. isOosay the least, a violation of the i principleston whichthet instrument leas founded. 2. That 3 territories acquired by-the blood and treasure tif.the whole nation, ought to be governed for the common benefit of the whole people of all the States, and any organization of the territorial gov ernments excluding the citizens of any part of the si Union from removing to such territories with their property, would bean exercise of power by Coe. gress, inconsistent with the spirit upon which our tiederal-compact was based, insulting to the sorer eignty and dignity of the States thus affected, eaten leted to alienate-one portion of the Union from the other, and tending ultimately to disunion. 3. ThatthisGreneral Assembly regard the condo-et of the northeon States on the subject of Shivery, as releasing tint slave-holding Stites from all further adherence to the basis of compromise fixed on by the act of Congress of March 6, 1820—even trench ect ever did impose any obligation upon the slave-bold leg States, and authorises them to insist upon their tights under the constitution ; but for the safe of' ! harmony and for the preservation of our Federal , Union, they will still sanction the application of the principles of the Missouri Compromise to the recent territorial acquisitions, if by such concessions future aggressions upon the equal sights of the States, may be arrested, and the spirit of Anti -slavery fanaticism may be extinguished, 4. The right to prohibit slavery in any territory belongs to the people thereof, and can only be ext qrcised by them to forming their Constitution for a State Government, or in their sovereign capacity as an independent State:- 4. That in the event of the passage of any act of Congress, conflicting with the principles herein ex pressed, Missouri will by found in hearty co-opera. tion with the slave-holding States, In such measures as may be deemed necessary for our mutual protec. tion against the encroachments of. Northern fanati cism. 6. That our Senators in Zongress be instructed and our Representatives be requested to act in con formity with the foregoing resolutions.

Have traveled and found many friends among the white men. Hope that my people might some day be like the white people. They are now very small, but be hoped they would grow. Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Irwin have forty of our children under their care. Hope the Chic& of the Church will pity my people.
