Jmportaatl Mcssag from the Preside.
WaIrinoton, Mnrcli 23, 1!, P. M. '..
' I learn this evening, from source which 1
think may be relied upon, thit the President of
the United State will to-morrow (Tuesdsy) vend
to both Houses of Congress "War Meaeage,"
to use the language of rey informant,' in reply,
probably, to the resolution of Mr. Dayton, offer
ed in the Senate two or three weeks since, caN
liny on the President for an expression of opin
ion ae to whether any circumstances in the atate
of our foreign relations render necessary an in.
crease of our land end naval forces, and if so,
what those circumstances are t I have once
or twice before alluded to this resolution, and to
the probability that it would elicit something of
importance to the country. The ihipreasion
Jias gained strength, since the arrival of the Hi
hernia, that the bill of Mr. Fairfield, providing
for the construction of ten war sttam-ships, Sic,
ahould be passed ; and it ia atated that the mes
sage to which 1 have referred will recommend an
augmentation of the navy, and other measures
fur placing the country in a state of defence.
If my information ahall prove correct, tod it is
wwsible to obtain copy, I will forward you the
'menage to-morrow afternoon ; if 1 cannot ob
4ain a eosy, you shall have the substance. J.
Correspondence of the Public, Ledger.
' WiSBciot, March 23, 1840. .
Whether the Oregon debate will be termin
ated the present week, now appeara to ba doubt
ful, aa several B-mators, I leave this moroin?,
have privately expressed their intention to ad
dree the Senate, and Mr. Webster among the
number. The ultimate vote of the whigs on
the question of notice, appears again to be in
volved in eome uncertainty.
A message was aoeeuocud from the Preai--dent
of the United States. Tbe Committae ac
cordingly rose, aod the Speaker resumed the
chair, when tbe message waa delivered io wri
ting by the Privtte Secretary of the President
(Criea of 'read ilf 'read it!') The reading was
accordingly commenced by tbe clerk, and the
interest, great at first, became intense aa he
proceeded, substantially, 'The President of the
United States bereuitu transmits to the Sen
ate and House of Representatives cooiusofthe
correspondence which has recently taken place
between the United States snd the government
jf Great Britain (here several members ld
risen to their feet, aod those who retained their
eats stretched - themselves forward esgerly
listening for tbe the word) in reierence to cer
tain duties en imposts allegvd to have boeo im
posed ia violation et the convention of 18102'
A general laugh followed this unexpected efe
noumeut. 1 have seldom witnessed a more
exciting scene. It waa evidently the expecta
tion that further correspondence on (be Oregon
-queotiuu, of sa important character, was about
lobe coinmnuicaled. A proposition is wade
by Mr. Ptketmasn for a refunding of dutiea
on b-itn aides, imposed ia violation ot the treaty,
end this proposition is acceded to by Mr. Bu
chanan. r ' :t, -tt.

A Convict MhmU
A convict named John Gibbs, whom -it will
be recollected was convicted lnt tall offe'eerc
f buld and daring burglanee in ttiis 'buruuii,
ad sentenced to nine year jmprisoouieiil at
hard labor iu the County jail, u-s shut dead by
Mr. Wateua, keeper of the pneou, yesterday
morning. Tiie feels of the cue are as t olio a:
nbout 6 o'clock Mr. Wstsou went into the pa
eage, as usual to seres the prisoners with break
fast; whenX came to the cell occupied by
Gibbs he opened the outer door, and the couvict
instantly put his arm through the hole in the
inner door, drew back the bolt, and ruhed in.
10 the patiKage toward Mr. Wateou. The lat
ter drew a revolving pistol, aod ordered him to
stand back, or be would shoot, and finding htm
etiil advancing, be drew the trigger, but it win
ed lire, Gibbs then clinched the keeper, and
threw him on his back, but Mr. Watson turned
himself so that be got his feet against 1 the pri
soner's breat, by which means he pushed him
offend again attempted to fire, but without ef
fect - Gibbs closed on him a second time, and
threw him, whea a deadly struggle took place
the convict ueiiig the woet desperate efforts to
wrench the pistol from the keeper's hand.- In
the course ot tbe struggle the convict Mid,
Give me tbe pistol and I will let you alone;
it yon don't I will kill you or if you maka any
noise I'll kill you." An alarm, however,
would have been of little consequence, as the
door leading to the passage was locked on the
inside. Watson knowing this, and seeing that
the issue waa for life or death, straggled man
fully for a few moments, when he got his arm
around the convict, and discharged one of the
loads in his bank. Gibbs intanl!y relinquished
Ins hold, and both repaint their feet, when
Watson fired again, and the shot took effect in
Gibbs' left side, in the n-fjion of the heart He
ihen retreated to hia cell, followed by the keep
er. When he waa insirie he airain turned upon
the keeper, who fired the third time, the ball
passing directly through his breast, when the
:onvict fell, and in a few moments expired. ,
Gibbs was a Iteht mulatto, aged about 40
years, twelve or fifteen of which he hat spent
n the Eastern Penitentiary, lie was a most
leaperate and hardened villain, and has sever
al times threatened to take the life of Mr.
Watson. It is but a few weeka ago that be
nade an ingenious but cnsoccesaful attempt to
escape. It ia evident that hia intention war to
take advantage of the stillr.esa of the Sabbath
.uorning, wrest the keya from: the keeper,
fore him into his cell, and thus make hia es
:spe, but fortunately ha was foiled, snd Mr.
tVaUoo deserves credit for sending to his final
ccount such a black hearted and blood-thirsty
illian who constantly placed the liveaofallin
eopardy who came in contact with him..
The Coroner held an inquest, and the jury
-eturned a verdict of 'justifiable homicide.'
After the rendition ot the verdict, the body
vaa suffered to lay an hour in front of the jail
a sickening sight to gratify I morbid curiusi
y after which it was removed to the alms
touae for burial and thus ends a career of crime
and infamy. -

given notice that tbe water would be 1st into the

' iMPoftf akt RcMon.-We learn by a slip front
the New Orleans Pioayune, of March 10, that
a commercial houea of that city had received a
letter from Galveston, Texas, dated the 14th in
stant, which states, information had been
brought by the schr. Mary Shields, from Mata
moras, bound to New Vork, having put into Gal
veston in distress, that the American Consul at
Matamoraa, J. p. Schatxell, Esq., was. in prison,
accused by the authorities: of Corresponding
with General Taylor at Corpus ChristL ,
. This is important information, if true, and
may lead to an active demonstration on the part
of the American forces sooner than ' waa sup'
posed. General Taylor, by the, last accounts,
had commenced marching hia army tq the Rio
Grande, on the West bank ot which not fir from
its mouth Matamoraa liea. This close neighbor
hood will euable him to act promptly, according
to his orders. ' In the event of the news being
confirmed, he may have the duty assigned bim
of releasing the Consul from his confinement,
and chastising the insult offered to our country.
