ylhens, orGeorgie, in a recent address at it
• meeting in Alexandria, for the • benefit of
the Orphan Asylum and' Free School of
that city, related the following anecdote:
'hA poor little boy, in a cold night in
June, with no home or root to shelter
his head, no paternal or maternal guar
dian or guide to protect and direct him on
his way, reached at nightfall the house of
s rich planter, who took him in, fed, lodg-'
ed, and sent him on his way, with his
blessing. Those kind attentions cheered,
his heart, and inspired him with fresh
courage, to battle with the obstacles of life.
Years rolled round : Providence led him
on ; ho had reached the legal profession ;!
his host haddied ; the cormorants that prei
00 the substance of man had formed a con
spiracy to get from the widow her estates.
'B l he sent for the nearest counsel to commit
'her cause to him, and the counsel proved
to bethe orphan boy years before wel-
Corned and entertained by her and her de
emnied husband. The stimulus of a
warm and tenacious gratitude was nowad
ded to the ordinary motive connected with!
the prtifession. He undertook her cause
with s will not easy to be resisted: he
pined it ; the widow's estates were 1
se
cured to her in perpetuity ; and Mr. Ste.

removing their furniture end goods from
the houses in that part of the town nearest

followinguite 'frotn a respectable citizen
in that vicinity
"A servant coming from' the o[ty ' this
morning told us of the legions of smsll'
worms on the top of the snow throughout
all the common over which she passed.—,
She took a dinner plate, and made an in
discriminate dip near my door, On which
I counted eight worms all alive. They
are a quarter of an inch long, Precisely
like those produced in cheese. 'I he snow 1
is one and a half inches deep ; and wheth.
er these were mono for the poor birds or
otherwise must be settled by the curious."
The Intelligencer appends a remark to
the effect that, if it was not from a reliable
source, it would "surpass belief." Not
at all. The fall of insects of various kinds,
though an unusul thing, has, nevertheless
occurred too frequently in different parts
of the world to leave the fact stated entire
ly dependent upon the absolute relia
bility of the person communicating it.—
The questions are, to what class do the
critters belong, and which way was the
wind blowing--these answered, some of
our naturalists will find causes for the e
vent as plenty as blackberries

tory, 0 12,00%000 in U. Stets* Government Stocks, I
with the privilege of tninsferring these certificates ,
of stock at pleasure. This would give the Mexi
can Government the privilege of selling out these
Certificates to Messrs. Mackintosh & Co., or other
specidatone, immediately upon their reception;
and then, if it saw fit, it might go to work, recom
mence the war, and sustain it with supplies pur
chased by our money. Tortoni against this, the
&nide yery wisely struck out the clause granting I
the right to transfer—thus holding the faith of
Mexico in check by the strong bond of dollars and
cents.
Another article provided that the inhabitants of
of the ceded territory should be incorporated into the
•Union. "as soon as possible"--that although thus
incorporated under our Government they should
still be privileged to retain all their religious and
ecclesiastical rights and usages, be subject to the
same eceksitu' diced authorities, whether residing in
Mexico or the U. States; that nothing should be
perniitted to interfere with the religious and eerie
elasticsl inrtitutions then subsisting; and that this
troclasiastical authority should continue its control
else all property destined to its support, including
; rebook hospitals, &c. The whole of this article
was stricken out by the Senate and its place sup
plied by one similar to that incorporated In the
Louisiana treaty, providing that the ceded territo
ries be incorporated Into the Union at the pleatiere
of Congress, and guarantying to the inhabitants
free and unrestricted enjoyment of their liberty
and property.
Then, with other amendments, were adopted
in the &nate by very decided' majorities—the
vote being from 30 to 10 in favor, to from k to 10
against—and the Treaty, as amended, was sent to
Mexico for ratification. The Commissioners, how
ever, Sndin* the Mexican Government indisposed
to ratify the amended Treaty, and our Government
being very turziour to back out of the difficulties
and troubles in which it had involved itself by the
War, the Protocol, to whict we have alluded, was
drawn up and signed by Luis de la Rose, on the
part of the Mexican Government, and by Mesas.
Clifibnt & Sevier, on the part of our Government
'Ala . Protocol alfinns that notwithstanding the a
mendnienta of the U. 8. Senate, the provisions of
the Original treaty were to be recanted as the
treaty between the tw6 Governments--that Mell
en should have the privilege of transferring the
812,000,000 Cerificates of U. 3. Government
Stock at pleasure, and that the inhabitants of the
ceded territory should be subject to the mime re
strictions and entitled to the same privileges, as
if the irtkles amended by the U. 8. Senate bad
not been so amended I
This, Protocol, Mr. Polk keeps in the dark, nev
er transmits it to Congress, and nothing is heard
of it until it. discovery is effected by the merest
accident in the following way, The klexican
Minister, Ro..a—who negotiated the treaty on be
half °this tirseernasent, sod whose name is, append
ed to the protocol, in a conversation with a citizen
of Washington, casually aderted to the protocol
and spoke of it. effect in connection with the
treaty. Much surprise was excited at this intelli
gence, and upon solicitation a copy was furnished
by Mr. Rosa, in the words of that incorporated in
the resolutions offered by Mr. Stephens. The
fact was then communicated to a respectable mem
ber
of Congress, and in this way the subject was
brought before the House of Representatives, on
Saturday by Mr. Stephens, who read in his place
a copy of the Protocol and offered a series of remo
tions, calling on the President for information iu
regard.to the existeuee of such a document, and
for the authority by which the Commissioners
were Tested with power virtually to nullify and
etiolate the amendments of the Senate.
The labroduction of the subject caused quite a
fluttering in the Administration camp, and has pro.
duced an ununial sensation throughout the coun
try. The Resolutions of Mr. Stephens were laid
over until Monday, and then adopted by • vote of
137 to 34.

The ISlational Intelligencer of Tuesday has the
following pertinet remark upon the subject
THE LATE TREATY WITH MEXICO.
We hope that none of our readers will
overlook the important development which
will be found in the minutes. of Saturday's
proceedings it! the House of Representa
tives touching the Treaty of,Peace with
Mexico, which, it appears, has been pro
claimed by our Government to have been
ratified as amended by the Senate of the
United States, though these amendments
were, to obtain the ratification of them by
Mexico, nullified by a Protocol, signed by
our Ministers, to that Government, under
itustructionifrom the Presidcint, which Pro
tocol declines, in effect, the amendments
required by the Senate to be of no force or
validity
.
The Treaty, as. understood. and required
by this Senate of the United. States to be
stmendekhu not been tatified'hy 'Mexico
at alkrand any' alteMpt 'by the United
Slues, to eld3rell those amendments must
be
„made in the teeth of the,Treaty, as it is
construed. by Mexico t withAhe consent of
the President, and 'without the consent or
knowledge of the treaty-Maki:* power in
this Government. .
What is to be the consequence of this
last and unparalleled assuniption by the
President of power palpably not tonsil.
tutional, nor in any senile legekind,whieh
he'isntrin eliini—as . has been done in the
Pit of'dther trisnegressione'tlf the smite
sort. as resulting in hie Presidential office
from analogous power in Monarchical
GOverguticefll-we are wholly Unable
foretell. AS at present advised, we do not
see' hew thus 'prticeeding of the Presideni,
in the teeth of the Constitution,le to be le
galized, but by the Treaty being again laid
before the Senate. and that body agreeing,
from the necessity of Me case, to ratify the
Treaty over again, with the ''Protocol" in
corporated or annexed.
Without some such proceeding, as the
reader will at once perceive, neither Cali

Then, on Saturday the 3J of February, at his
residence in Littletdown. the Hon. /AXIS W
-84 'mat, is the 7341 year of his age.
When a good man dim, the sorrow of those
who mourn his loss is sweetened and conaoled by
the hope that he has passed from the trials and
tribulations of ibis world to the enjoyment of der;
nal peace and joy in the neat. If a whole life
reaching beyond three score years and ten, spent
in the devout practice of the duties of his religion ;
if • charity as broad as the sorrows and sufferings
of his neighbors; if a purity of heart as stainless as
that of a child ; if prudence, if humility, if justice
to all, can give evidence of a heart worshipping•
God in truth and sincerity, ■nd of final perseve
rance to the end, then is the soul of the deceased
with God. Such, in one word, was the character
of Jame' M'Sherry. All who knew him loved
and respected him : this love anti this respect he
won foe himself by his blamelesei life, his kindness
of heart. his forgiving disposition, his noble frank
nee., and his sterling honesty. Whatever part in
life was confided to him, he made it a solemn du
ty to perform diligently and well. He had the al
most unbounded confidence of his fellow-citizens.
It was not won by eloquence, for he was no ora
tor ; it was not won by the arts of popularity—
he used none but his good deeds. It wan the wil
ling tribute of those who know him, to his innate
worth.
Ile was horn on the 20th of July, 1776, in the
neighborhood where he lived and died. At the
age of 31. he was elected to the Legislature of
the State by the people of Adams county, and
his business habits and the confidence of the peo
ple secured his re-election five times in succee.
riot., until the year 1613, when he wa- chosen by
the people of York and Adams counties to repro.
sent them in the Senate of the State. The remit
of this election proved that the esteem of his fol
low citizens arose above party, in the warmest
party time.. Mr. ACSherry wee a Federalist.—
York county hod then recently given a Democrat
ic majority oT nearly 1800 for Gov. Snyder, while
the usual Federal majority of Adams county was
seldom over eight or ten hundred yet such was
his popularity in tlus upper part of Yak county
end in the Borough of York, as well *sin Adams,
that he overcame the. immense disparity, and was
returned to the Senate. He remained in the
Senate four t ears until :817. Whlot a memberof
the Senate and free from militia duty, when eat.
timore was menaced by ■ foreign foe, he volun
teered as a private in the Hey. Mr. ACClean's
Company of Horse. which was raised in Gettys
burg, and remained with the troop in service un
til it was discharged.
JAS F. ROSS
After feu years of uninterrupted application to
the duties of a Senator and Legislator, he retired to
enjoy the happiness of a domestic life, having mar
ried in June 1816. In 1891 be was elected to Con
grow from the district composed of the counties of
Adams, Franklin. Cumberland end Perry. which
be faithfully represented until the year 1823. In
18:24, ho was again returned to the State Legisle.
lure ass delegate from Adams county, where he
served for air, auceesive years. lie was again e-
lected to that office in 1834-5 and 1835-6. As
the last and crowning proof of the confidence arid
esteem of hie fellow-citizens, he was chosen, with
Thaddeus Stevens, Esq., to represent Adams
county in the Convention which m e t and eat i n
Hanieburg, and afterwards in Philadelphia, in the
year 1897-98, to reform the Constitution of the
State. Upon the adjournment of this body, he de
terniitied to retire from public life, conscious that
be had fulfilled the part of an upright man and good
citisen, and no solicitation* could afterwards
duce him to accept any nomination. He spent
the last year* of his life in a constant preparation
to meet his God, as his preceding years bad been
passed in the endeavor to KAI Hie command..
He withdrew from all business to look into his
own heart and purify it for the awfbi change
from Kfe to death, which he felt must soon await
him, When that hour came, perhaps it had few
Imam for him ; at least it had its consolations.—
How comforting then was it not fur him to look back
WOW a kinglife of tent in doing good to those around
him, in succoring the distressed, in comforting the
afflicted, in performing - faithfully the duties of his
