JEFKEII.S0M.AN llllPl BLICAN The removal nf Solomon Van Rensselaer from the Albany Post Office and tho appoint ment of a lull blond ud Loco Focoin his place, is calling out some severe comments from the Press. Gonoral Van Rensselaer was first 'ap pointed lo that OHice by Mr.iUunroe, and serv ed through the administrations of Mr. Adams and Gen. Jackson. Mr. Van Ruren removed him to give place to Mr. Flagg ; atid one of the first acts of ihe lamented Harrison was to re tore his old companion in arms lo the station from which he had been thrust. " And now," says the Courier, " John Tyler, walking in the footsteps of Mr. Van Buren, has tlared to insult and outrage the feelings of the country by removing him ! Should not the People speak in relation to this last and great est outrage of the treacherous Executive?" The Tribune" says : ' Gen. Jackson always refused to have this gallant old patriot turned out, throughout his whole eight years. Van Buren, after consider able, hesitation, removed him and appointed 'A. C. Flagg, now Comptroller of the State rj nan ces. "Gen. Harrison restored Gen.. Van Rens selaer, and now John Tyler has turned hi pi out. Gen. Y. was dependent on the office for his livelihood, and carefully abstained from an po litical action. And yet such men as Caleb Cushing can stand up in the face of innumera ble facts like these and wonder what the Whigs find to condemn in John Tyler!" , The " Commercial" thus notices the rernov- 1: " What an outrage is this ! Solomon Van IiensM-laer, the hero of the Miami, under that old fire-o:iier, General Wavne, and the compan ion in that battle of William Henry Harrison. of whom, till his death, he was the bosom frieno ; Solomon Tan Rensselaer, who was shot through the body at the' Miami, yet kept his hOrse fighting till the blood spurted from his nosjfril-s; Solomon Van Rensselaer, who was riddlod like a sieve by the bullets of the enemy in storming the heights of Queenstown ; this same Solomon Van Rensselaer turned out of the Albany post office by John Tyler ! We blush for the deed while we recordihe fact. Why should a man love his country, or shed his blood for ii, u hcn that country treats its scarred and true hearted soldiers thus 1" The SorcieYs Affair isa England. As ihc opinions of the United Service Ga zelle (not the United Service Journal,) and the London Standard have been extensively pub lished in ibis country, we make from a late let ter from a gentleman abroad the following ex tract, giving what we have other authority for asserting is the universal opinion amoii2 naval men in England. N. Y. American. 41 As you all in America take great interest in the Somcrs affair, you doubtless would like to know what is thought of it by naval men in England. C informs me ihat a friend of his, a Pi)st Captain, Royal Navy, lately from Portsmouth, told him it creatsd great excite ment there, but thai he heard but one opinion expressed from an Admiral down, and that opin. joti was ti perfect justification of Mackenzie measures. There was a savage article in tlie United Service Gazette against Mackenzi which, however, does not speak the sentimenl f naval men, and was written by a person of no authority. The D.'iuh and Burial of the young Indian Squaw in New-York, is thus described by the corrcspondentTof the National Intelligencer : I ho immediate cause ol her death was a vi olent cold, taken in coining home a night or two before from a ball at the Tivoli. The om nibus in which they were returning broke down in Hudson street, and thev were obliged to walk a mile through a light snow falling at the time. Their thin moccasins were no protec tion, and four or five cf the Indians wcro ill the next morning, the bride worst of all. She died in dreadful agony of congestion of liio blood on tire third day, spite of the best medical attend ance and every care on the. part of the ladies of the neighborhood. The Indians were all stand ing around her, and, on being told that she was deadthey lore the rings from their ears, and stood for some minutes in silence, with the blood streaming upon their ciieeks. Their grief afiei wards became quite uncontrollable. They washed off all. the paint with winch they have been so gaily bedecked while here, and painted the dead bride very gaudily for burial." She was interred in the Greenwood cemetery. The most passionate affection existed between her and her husband. Ho is a magnificent fellow, the handsomest Indian we have eer had in the cities, and a happier marriage "who never cele brated. She followed close at his heels where1 ever he went, and had scarce been separated from, him five minutes at a time since her mar riage. . The poor fellow is an object of great commiseration now, for he seems completely Inconsolable. His wife was the idle of the puny. They are very impatient tobe away since this melancholy event, and will start west ward as soon as the sick recover. Snow Storm.

The Bangor Whig stales that a person named Daniel Savage, was arrested by a British officer on the 18th instant, in the Plantation of Han cock, on the South side of St. John River, and consequently within the limits of Maine, as de fined by the late treaty, ll appears that the event produced great excitement, and that the citizens, assisted by Captain Webster, com manding the U.

A public meeting was held, and resolutions passed complaining of the inroad upon the State, and a representotion of the case has been sent to the State Legislature. View Catholic CSinrcJi. The Philadelphia Sentinel says that the Ro man Catholics of that city have negotiated for, and are about commencing to build, one of the handsomest churches in the United States, at the corner of Franklin and Fifth-streets. The building, it is said, will cost upwards of one hundred thousand dollars when finished. Browned. Littleton Hunt, an old soldier of the Revo lution, who served five 3'cars, and who was in the battles of Guilford and Eutaw Springs, was drowned on the nighi of the 12th instant. He lived in Gwinnett County, Georgia, and was found dead in the Apalache river. It was supposed ihe horse on which he rode got into deep waier and occasioned the accident. .Mr. Hunt was about one hundred and seven vears n!.1 W.U. . The whole amount of bread stuffs raised in ihe United States in ibo year 18-12, including corn and potatoes, was 716,147,950 bushel.". This allows for the whole estimated population, nearly thirty-nine bushels for each man, wo man, and child in the country. Pateat Rights. During the year 1842, five hundred and se venteen patents were issued at Washington, including thirteen re-issues, and additional im provements. During the same period three hundred and fifty-two patents expired. The applications for patents were seven hundred jand sixty-one, and the number of caveats filed, iwu Hundred and ninety.

Tlie whole number of patents is sued by the United States, previous to Janua ry, 1843, was twelve thousand, nine hundred and ninety two. The New Orleans Picayune gives an ac count of a horrid erettt, if into. Ii is this: That a man named Stewart? reading at Cy press Bend, Ark., was some lime since robbed of a negro. Supposing the theft wa's commit ted by some wood-chopper of the vicinity, he swore that his dogs should fat the next wood chopper that ever entered upon his grounds. This awful threat Stewart put into rxccutioji upon a poor wood-chopper who visited his premises a lew days alter.

ALL Persons insuring in this company arc members equally interested in its welfare and in the election of its officers. , In order to become a member of this company and thereby be insured, the applicant gives a pre mium note, the amount of which is in proportion to the amount to be insured, and its degree of hazard, thus: If S1000 is to be insured, at-5 per cent., he gives his note for 50. If at 10 per cent, he gives his note for $100, and in that proportion for a greater or less sum, according to the rale of hazard, on wh'ch note he advances 6 per cent, and an additional sum of SI 50 for survey and policy. he then becomes a member on the approval of his application and is insured for five years. I he aggregate of the premium notes constitutes ihe cash fund, chargable first, with the expenses, and second, with the losses of the Company; and should it prove insufficient to pay both losses and expenses the money td meet ihe losses, (should any occur) is borrowed agreeably to the act of in corporation, and paid. An assessment is then made to repay such loan upon the premium notes, in proportion to their respective amounts, and in no case to be made but once a year, notwithstanding several losses may happen. At the expiration of five years the note, if any assessments havs been made and paid, is given up, and the insured may renew his application. Policies May at any time be assigned or sur rendered- an.i cancelled, and the premium notes given up. according to ihe by-laws of the Com pany. No more than three fourths of the cash value cf any property will be insurcd,-nnd all groat Imards: such as Cotton Factories, Powder Mills, Distilleries, Machine Shops, Manufactories for Printer's Ink, and all establishment.- oj the same class of hazards, arc not insu?ed upon any conditions whatever, and thai no one risk is taken over $5000, it is considered much more safe and less expensive than in Stock companies, where they insure larfr amounts and hazardous property.
