stood, the occasional regard of the passing

the river waters that roll at some &stance,

more deserving of the hollow echoes of

From .Vera C'roi
(dent H. J.'Hartstone, United States na
-arrived at New Orleans on the 12th
inst., in the schooner William Bryan, from
Tern Cruz, with despatches from Corn
kniodore Jones, commander of the U. S.
-squadron in the Pacific, and from Gen.
'Thompson, U. S. Minister at Mexico.
Ativices by this arrival ere the details of ,
the-capture of the •Californias by Commoa
dere Jones, and the subsequent release of
those provinces. 'We learn that about the
Ist of September last, while the squadron
under the 4 eommand of Commodore Jones
was Icing at Callan, arrivals from the U.'
States brought intelligence of the angry cur
reaponience between the Governments of
Mexico - and (he United States. Amongst
other -items, the letter of Bocanegra, the
Mexican Minister of War, was received at
Callao: The American consul and Com.
meanie Jones, judging from tlre tenor of
this'epietle, concluded that war had been
declared between the two G-iverna-ents;
atitfit TUITIOt" prevailing at the same time;
titetidexicu had agreed to sort ecder the
Californias to the British, for the ourpose
oPeeising money to prose':ute it—which
wet confirmed by the mysterious departure
ottlia - British fleet at Callao the night af
ter the reception of this intelligecce—caus
ed-Coinnandore Jones to weigh anchor im
mediatel'y, and sail for Monterey. Upon
the arrival of the squadron before !klonter
eyx on the 19:h of November, Commodore
Jones caused the fleet to anchor Nith
spring cables, and sent Captain Armstrong
with. a message to the commander of the
fort,with a peremptory order to surrender,
upon the penalty of a bombardment, allow
ing him eighteen hours to decide upon his
cot - Erse. At 11 o'clock at night, the Mexi..
can governor, Alvarado, anti ri pated the ex
pirauon of the time allowed, and sent
message to Commodore Jones, informing
a
hint that the fort was surrendered to him
together with all the property of the Mex
ican Government, and the command of the
Californias as well. Whereupon a detach
ment of troops was sent to take possession
in the name of the United States; and on
the morning following, the stripes and
stars were seen fluttering over the battle-
Meats of Monterey.
A few ~days afterwards, (on the 21st
Nor-ember.) Commodore Jones, whilst on
shore. got possession of a file of American
papers, of several weeks'- later date than
those- received at Callao, which contained
inf..wmation of the pacific settlement of the
coutroveray between Mexico and the Uni
ted States. -Upon ascertaining that - the
Capture of - Vonterey had been made
under a mistake, he withdrew the Ameri
can force from the fort, released the prop
erty surrendered, and on the 26th, the
alitodroj withdrew from the coast.

The time already wasted in rowelled for:
• e •
attacks on the Canal Board, to .whom the
people accord the credit of having mane
ged our Improvements with unexampled
success, would have been sufficient for the
full discussion of this subject and the ap
plication of the proper remedy.
Do our representatives feign ignorance in
this matter of what the *offering people de'
sire, and what fidelity to their high trust
I requires at their hands; Can they recon
cile it with a sense of duty, to squander tl e
iieJe and money of the people in bootless
sqnabbles when they know that notes en.
dossed by the Statetnd,lo per cent. worse
than borough or city shinplasters, continue
to be thrust upon the p•ior who cannot help
themselves, and are thus, as it were, by the
diret sanction of thel.egislature, robbed of
about °tie foul th of their earnings, :Ike
depth'of winter, when the difficulty of pro
curing employment of any kind, renthrs
this sacrifice, on the little they do earn, dis-
tressing in the extreme?
IL is too often the case that evils of the
most afflicting kind, are thus treated with
neglect, because the people seemed to en
dure them with pationctt, when they are in
of such character as to call for
who have the
Power and w e t -9 ( r, Th r "_' -. 2:hCle
to perform their duties faitniuny. _
There is nothing rn tre inenttiug'ar veia.
1 tious than for men in a representative capa
[racily, to act as though they looked for their
I constituents to follow them up with memo
rial after memorial, to kr ep them in mind of
the very things they were deputed to do .
I and of which they had a perfect knowledge
before , hey left home.
1 We repeat it, that considerations of hu
manity alone, should induce the legislature
to carry out, at cwe, the reiterated recom
mendations of the Executive, in the pas
sage of a law to retire and cancel at lest
the Erie scrip and that of broken bank'.
By the report of the Auditor General it
appears that the State holds Bridge and
Navigation stocks - to the amount of $5l-1,
350 (nearly equal to the whole of the above
issues) the dividends on which, for the last
year, spew an average rate of between 5
and 6 per cent., and some as high as 12
per cent.
Can it be possible then, that the State
will e, , ntinue to hold these stocks and sue
fer the people to be robbed of their amount
every fete mouths, by receiving and pay
ing nut money at a discou tt of 13 to 20 per
cent? it is obvious that while things re..
mair, as they are, the entire receipts and
disbursements of the treasury must be in
the most depreciated of those irdes This
is proved by the experience of the p-pat
year. Five or 5k huadred thousand dol
lars of worthless trash, must therefore, by
constantly flowing in ai,d out of the tielso,
rv, represent the aggregate revenue of the
State, or about 8:3,000,000.
Were tile State to gain what the corn Int
l
pity must lose, there would bt a kind of
pretext for countenancing this singular ope
ration, but there is no ground even for this
apology odious, and absurd as it us• The
loss is all to the people. They may buy it
to pry tax-s, &;., but it eomes back imme-
diately to be bought and sold, and lost over
and over again, without paying the debts
of the State, except to her own citizens,
who taking it at par become the medium of
handing it out, to pass into other hands and
back again fur toliei and taxes to the treasu—
ry, after brokers and shavers have taken
their turn out of it.
It is evident that the people cannot tole
rate this ruinous and disgraceful state of
things for another year, why then prolong
it fur a single week?
We have sbewo that the people, espeei.
ally the poor are suffering by it; and why
not let it, at once, be made known that
provision is made to prevent the re-issue
ing of the uncurrent portion of these notes?
Let it once be ascertained that, when
paid into the treasury, they are no more to I
appear on the counter of the broker, and
the robbery will cease. Should this pres
ent and practicable relief be withheld from
the people, and the State left to sink deeper
and deeper into disgrace and difficulty, it
requires but little foresight to predict the
msequence to - those who : must plead. guil

Sweet Potato Cffee.—Some time ago,
we saw in a Memphis paper. a recommen.
&it ion of sweet potato,!s as a subsitiite fur
coffee. The freak took us a day or two
since, to make a trial of it, by way of ex-
”eriment.
Yesterday morning we drank of the
'proceeds' at breakfast and hope to d 0 so
this morning.. A medium sized sweet po
tatoe was pared, and thea while in the
raw state, sliced. These slices were then
cut across wise, so that when the operation
was over, the pieces were square and pre•
cisely of the magnitude of ordinary dice.
These were toasted slowlyo ver a fire, as
one does coffee. The moisture of the po,
tato gradually evaporated, awl in about
the time that coffee would be prepared for
for the mill,the potato substitute was ready
for the same process. The grinding was
carried on ebsily and perfectly, and the
grains came out prettily from the mill.—

seldom drank a rup with greater pleasure.

Poor BANINI author of ' Tales of the O'Ha
ra Family.' whose death we a short time
since recorded, and whose very delicate
hea'th made him deeply feel what he ex
pressed, thus speaks of woman's tender
ness and love:
'lt liks often hron remarked that, in sick
ness, there is no hand like a woman's hand,
nu heart like WlFfllilll . 9 he,irt—and there is
not. A man's breast may swell with on
im era hl e s o r row, and anptel.ension uav
rend his mind; yet place him by the sick
couch, and in the shadow,ruther than light,
of the sad lamp that watches it;let him have
to c 00.% over the long dull hours, and
wait, alone and sleepless, the struggle of
gray dawn into the cham'oer of stuffs.' ing;
let him be appointed to this ministry, even
for the sake of the brother of his heart, or
the father of his being, and his grosser na•
ture,even where it is most perfect will tile;
his eye will close, and his spirit grow im.
patier.t of the dreary task; and though love
and anxiety remain undiminished, his mind
will own to itself a creeping in of irresist
ible selfishness; which, indeed, hs may be
ashamed of, and struggle to 'eject, but

characterise his nature, and ['love, in one
instance, at least, his manly weakness.-

place. But woman feels no weakness, and
even no recollection of se'f. In silence, i
and ill the depth of night, she dwells, not]
passively, but, so far as the qualified term
may cxpress our me miug —joyously . Her
ear acquires a blind mans' instinct, es
from time to time it catches the slightest
st ror whisper, or the breath of the now
more-thann-ever'dused-one, who lies under

ear conveying all that sound can convey,
of pity, comfort and devotion; and thus,
night after night, she tends him, like a
creature sent from a higher world, when
i all earthly watchfulness had failed; her
eye never winking, her mind never palling,
her nature that at all other times is weak
