Death of Gen. . John McNeil.
Anoth6t gallant soldier is gone! It is with
great regret that we record the death of the
distinguished officer whose name is at the
head of this obituary, who died at the Irv
ing house in this city on the 23d Febr. of
pnlrrionary indigestion, in the sixty-sixth
year of his age.
General McNeil was one of the surviving
officers of the war of 1812, through the
whole of which he served with great credit
aad distinction. He was born at Hillsboro,
N. H., and entered' the army with a rank of
Captain in 1812. In 1819 he was attach
ed to the first brigade, commanded by Gen.
Scott, which crossed the Niagara river and
encountered the enemy at Chippetva ; iu
which engagement so glorious to the Amer
ican arms, he led the 11th regiment into ac
tion, and was opposed to the elite of the Brit
ish army,- composed of the Peninsular Vete.:
Tans under the command of the Marquise of
Tweedale. His regiment was in the Van,
and was supported by the' regiment corn=
inanded by Major (now Major General Jes•
hp.) Alter crossing Street's creek, they
deployed into line within thirty paces of
ilte enemy, and the order was given "give
them cold steel." •At this juncture, the voice
Of McNeil was heard in tones of thunder,
(he Was of gigantic stature,) and every sol
dier Might have heard the words, "Give it
to theM, boys !" the enemy soon broke and
fled, the victory :was complete,
Subsequently at Bridgewater, McNeil
event again with Scott's brigade into action,
and in the face of a British battery of nine
guns in full activity, the American force de
ployed into line as if on parade dmy ; but
so destructive was the lire front the battery,
that in 55 minutes the brigade sustained a
heavy loss in killed and wounded, and was
oblidged to give around. During the con
flict the voice of McNeil, like that ofll roar
ing lion, was heard high above the din of
battle. Ile rallied his own regiment and the
22nd, commanded by Col. Brady, who had
fallen severely wounded. At this moment
his horse was killed under him by a cannon
shot, and he received himself two wounds
front canister shot, one in the right knee and
the other in the left leg. General Jesup,
who was also present i -wairl6erely wound
ed about the same time.
Gen. McNeil recovered from his wounds,
Was retained in the army at the close of the
War, served on the lakes and on the Missis
sippi until lie was ordered to a school of
.practice at Jefferson Barracks, from which
he was detached in 1829 as commissioner
to negotiate a treaty with the Sacs mid Fox
Indians. Having performed that service,
he came to Washington to close the duties
of his mission, and afterwards, on account
of the disability he sufl'ered under in conse
quence of the wounds he had received at
Ilridgewster, he resigned his military com
mission. Subsequently, and without solic
itation, he received the appointment of Sur
veyor of the port or hoston, the ditties of
which he dischaTed until removed in 1.441.-
Ile was reinstated in 1645, and remained
in airy until his death ; and but a few
days before it, he had the positive assurance
nl that gallant old soldier whom he had com
manded, President Taylor, that nothinff
could pre%•uil upon him to displace him.
Ilut, as he observed to an old army friend,
this visit to this city' was his last march ;
and : , nun after the remark Wits .maile he re
signed his , breath, with the same fortitude
and compostue that had marked his bear

Important from the Rio Grande.
The• American Flag, of the 6th, brings
us accounts of an interesting and highly im
portant movement of the citizens of the. Rio
Grande counties of Texas, with a view to
the establishment of an independent Terri
torkil Government. At least two hundred
citiTens, with their names appended, pub
lished an address in which they say :
"The time has at length arrive d When
the people of this valley must act with."de
cision end promptitude." We have "too
long confided in the justice" of the people
of Texas---too long tamely submitted to her
unauthorised political jurisdiction. Our con
fidence in Texas has been misplaced, and
it behooves tiS to appeal to the Federal Gov
ernment for a Territorial organisation. We
are entitled to it: Let us knock at the door
of Congress for that protection which Texas
denies us. The authorities of Texas seek
to annul the titles to real estate between the
Notices and Rio Grande—it is a fatal blow to
our future prosperity, and will involve the
country in litigation, ruinous and endless.
This scheme of flagrant injustice proves that
we have nothing in future to expect from
the State of Texas, but vindictive and illib
eral legislation." •
On the 2d Febr. it mass meeting of
,the
citizens was held, at which they adopted,
among other resolutions, the following :
" Whereas, We believe that all that por
tion lying east of the. Rio Grande, and south
of the line of New Mexico. distinct from the
former province of Texas, of right belongs
to the Government of the United States, and
that the State of Texas, has extended her
jurisdiction over it without our consept ; and
that the late measures taken by her will re
tard her growth and prosperity, by involve
big the property holders in endless and ru
inous litigation, and thereby prevent the de
l:elopement of its resources, and
Whereas, We are, in geographical posi
tion); as well as in interest, separate and dis
tinct from Texas, and believe that a territo
rial organ,ization will greatly promote the in
terest and welfait of the people of this ter
ritory, therefore!,
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this
meeting that the said Territory was acquit.-
ed by the arms of the United States, and is
the property of the Union.
Resolved, That we reccommend a con
vention, composed of Delegates Irons the
different sections of said territory, to devise
a provisional government, with suspended
functions, until our claims can he urged be
fore Congress by a delegate chosen by the
peophs.
Following these resolutions is an appeal,
addressed to all "the citizens of the valley
and territory of the Rio Grande," setting
forth their grieveaucea in forcible terms.
An opposition meting took place at the
same spot, on the sth inst, presided over by
Judge Bigelow. Resolutions were passed
recognising and asserting the right of ,Tex
its to the sovereignty and jurisdiction over
the territory between the Nences ;Ind the_
Rio Grande rivers, and expressing that the
people thin assembled 'held themselves
hound, as citizens of the Stan-, to sustain
that right against the internal opponents, or
external enemies. The !fleeting was full of
allegiance to the State authorities. and fur
ther resolved that copies of the resolutions
then passed should be forwarded to the Sen
ators and Representatives of Texas its Con

Canada.
A correspondent of the Butlalo Commer
cial Advertiser thus classifies the population
of Canada
In the Upper Canada population of 730,-
000 there arc 65,000 English, 53.000 Scotch
140,000 Irish, 20,000 French Canadians
350,000 "British" Canadians, 5000 Ger
mans, 33,000 Americans, and 11,000 non
descripts. More than one fourth of these
"British" Canadians being of American de
scent? may be classed with the Americans.
On the Irish, fully one half are Catholics,
who are anything but "true • Britons'" and
consequently the pure, unadulterated old
country feeling must be sought among the
200,000 Irish Protestants, English and
Scotch : Of the 1,500,000 inhabitants of
the two provinces, less than 250,000, or
one-sixth, were from abroad, and a goodly
portion of these, imported when children,
have grown up among us.
Fully 200,000 ? or one-sevinith, are natives
of the united States, or their descendants.

THE
Universal Counterfeit & Altered Bank
NOTE DETECTOR.
THE Suh3criber desires to call the'
atten
tiun of the business public to a system of
Counterfeit and Altered Bank Note detec
tion, by which any counterfeit or aktered .
note of any modern plate in the U. S. Can
be infallibly detected at a glance. The sys
teut consists of eight simple rules which ex-•
plain the principle of the work of thesever- -
al kinds of expensive and perfect engraving
envines in general use by all bank note en
gravim.; Co.. and show wherein all counter
feits fail in imitating some one thing or call
er. Counterfeiters nay be ever so well tic
painted with the system, but their knowl
edge will only serve to demonstrate the fol
ly of their ever attempting to imitate exact
ly a genuine plate for the capital necessa
ry to do this may be much more profitably
employed in executing genuine notes for
the use of banks.
The Subscriber's brother LaS published'
ii little work einbociyin ,, this system ~ vhich
may be brirtiy dvi:cribed. in the following.
