that it will be hard work for them to keep the animal

in New York a few days since, to get up a response,

.it sus a most melancholy failure. A stand about 75
'feet in length ancrabout 25 in width, was erected for
the accommodati „in of the officers and "hurrah boys."
This was decorated with various insignia—banners, 11

COLUMBIA RAIL Rost:I.—EDWARD F• GAY, Esq•.
publishes the following statement of the receipts and
expenditures on that portion of the public works dur
ing the month of April :
Receipts as per reports of collectors,
Expenditures and liabilities for the
mouth,
Excess of receipts over expenditures. $39,249 95
Adi excess from Jan. Ist, to April
Ist, as per last repo t, 49,095 39
-------
Total excess or nett revenue for four
months, ending May Ist, 1844, $87,345 33
-------
The Soperinumdent states, that this is probably the
largest amount which this railway has ever cleared in
a single month. Theestimated cost of the machinery
is (io round numbers,) $4,000,000, consequently the
nett revenue'for April is equal to nine and a half per
cent, on - cost, and for four months ending May let,
over six and a half per cent, (two and a half of the
four mouths were rrevious to the opening of f the ea

determined disposition to rob the people, justify the
sale of works from which such a large revenue is de
rived.

of the American citizens sentenced, with many ,

LATER FROM TEXAS.
By the steamship New York, which arrived here
yesterdit ,we have later date from Texas. Galves
ton dates are before us as lates as the 11th inst. The
111CW1 1 is not of importance.
The U S steamship Poinsett, Copt. Semmes, touch
ed at Galveston on the 11th inst. on her way to Vera
Cruz, with Mr Thompson, the confidential agent uf our
Department of State to the Goveroment of Mexico, on
board. The Poinsett put in for fuel, and was to sail a
gain next day.
The Galveston papers were informed. by the arrival
of Puinsett, of the opposition of Mr Clay to the pro
ject of annexation, but they express the hope that his
opposition is only one as to time.
Not a little dissatisfaction prevails in Texas, so we
learn verbally, in 'elation to the turn annexation has
taken in this country. Many of the TOWIS appear
DOW to regret that they did but attempt to "strike a
bargain" with Great Britain, instead of Amin them
selves to the U. States.
It is reported that a smart skirmish took place on
the 2d instant. between a party of Mexican traders
and a company of half soldiers half brigands, under
Pena, who is said to have a commission from Gen.
Woll to prevent smuggling. The latter patty were
finally driven off, with the loss of fifoeen including ena
himself. This affair took place about seventy P
miles
9th-west of Corpus Christi.
THE TEXAS TREATY.
The following resolutions offered by Senator Ben•
ton, are now under consideration in the Senate, in se-
cret session:
"Resolved, That the ratification of the treaty for the
annexation of Texas to the United States, would be an
adoption of the Texian war with Mexico by the United
States, and would devolve its conduct and conclusion
urn the said United States.
"Resolved, That the treaty-making power does not
extend to the power of making war. and that the Pres
ident and Senate have no right to make war, either by
declaration or adoption.
"Resolved, That the count') dismembered from the
United States by the treaty of 1819 with Spain, com
prehending Texas and a large territory between the
Red river and the Arkansas, and being geographically
appurtenant to the United States, and essential to theit
political, commercial and social system, OUGHT co BE
re-unit , dto the American Union as soon as it can be
done with the consent of a majority of the people of
the United States and of Texas, and when Mexico shall
consent to the same, or acknowledge the independence
of Texas, nr cease cc prosecute the war against her (the
armistice it% ing expired) on a scale commensurate to
the conquest of the country.
The Methodist Church.—We regret to team that
very gloomy apprehensions are entertained in reference
to the result or the heated discussions in the general
conference on the subject of Slavery, and that a rupture
between the northern and southern branches of the
church, is looked to as quite possible. It will be seen
by reference to the proceedings of Monday that a cri

From the N. 0. Picayune,
Macready the Tragedian and Ole Bull the Vio
linist.—These distinguished artists, in their late South
ern expedition met on board one of the Mississippi
steamboats. Macready in his manner is exceedingly
distant and reserved even with those with whom he is
in daily intercourse, but more particularly so. with
strangers. He seldom smiles; tragedy being his rule,
laughing the rare deception. The astonishment such
a man would feel,may be imagined, when a seven foot
Kentuckian familiarly put his arms round his neck
and giving him a bear like shake of affection, exclaim
ed, "Come, boss, give us a song!" Macready having
partially recovered from the shock of such an unusual
and unceremonious attack, replied that he could not
sing. "Oh come now, old boss; I know you can." 1
pledge you my honor" replied the tragedian. "I have
not a singing note in my voice, but Mr.. 016 Bull is oo
board, and he will doubtless give you some music."
"What can he dol" "He plays on the violin." Thank
you, hosts, here goes and away went the Kentuckian
in search of Bull. He was soon found, and was, per
'haps, no less astonished than Macready, at the hog, the
boss, and the application. "Come, old Bull, hose,
out with the rosant, and give us ' Jack's alive,' and
I'll go round with the hat and get you a dollar or two,
come, go it while you're young." Ole Bull with his
usual good nature obliged the Kentuckian, with the
music, but offended him because he would neither
drink, fight, or receive the money. A friend of ours
• who witne ssed this incident, says that Macready for
once forgot his tragedy and laughed outright.— Brook
