FoREIGN mtLlTAux,—The Tniovezrent a.
gainst the existing military organizations in
the United States composed of foreigners,
seems to have excited the' ire of Join
AO, the Irish exile. We find quoted in the
Cincinnati Commercial the following extract
from some speech or writing of his on the
subject :
"For every musket giveU in to the State
Armory, let three be patellas& Arthwith ;
let independent companies be formtd, thrice
as numerous as the disbanded corps—there
are no Arms Acts here yet—and let every
"foreigner" be drilled and trained, , and have
his arms„ . altvays ready. For you may be
very sure (having some experience in that
matter) that those who begin by disarming
you mean to do you mischief." , I
Whatever 'people, may think about the
movement against foreign military eompa
-
flies, such. talk as this cannot fail to add
strength and force to that movement. The
judgment of the exile seems to have forsaken
him since his arrival in America.
DEATH FROM INTFAIPERANCE.—AIexander
Barlie, a liquer dealer in Pittsburg, of very
intemperate . and eccentric, habits, locked
himself in his room .at his lodgings, while
crazed with drink, and remaining there se
veral days, the neighbors broke open' the
place and found him dead and nearly naked.
Ho had apparently died from cold, hanger,
and, intemperance. • He was about sixty
years cif age, aid was.at ono time a leading
merchant of Pittsburg.
Advices from New Mexico say that the
Indians were more than usually troublesome,
the Afescallerps having run off over 400 head
of cattle, and the Jicarillas - thren,oning the
northern lino of settlements. The
were suffering from smallpox. The terri
teriallegislature was in session at Santa Fe,
and the Mexican party had refused Co' pay
the freight on a number of boblo presented
by Congress, because they were printed in
the English language.
