'Message from the President.
To the Senate and House of Representa-
lives
I invite your attention to the propriety
of making an appropriation to provide for
any expenditures which it may be neces•
sary to make in advande for the purpose
of settling all difficulties with the Metican
Republic. It is my desire to terniinate,
as it originally was to avoid, the existing
war with Mexico, for a peace just and
honorable to both parties. . .
It is probable tliat the chief obstacle to
be surmounted in accomplishing this desi
rable object, will be the adjustment of a
boundary betwen the two Republics,which
shall prove satisfactory and convenient to
both, and such as neither will hereafter
repent. In the adjustment of this boun
dary, we ought to pay a full equivalent
for any concession which may be made
by Mexico.
Under the circumstances, and consid
ering the other complicated questions to
be settled by negotiation with the Mexi
can Republic, I deem it important that a
sum of money should he put under the
control of the Executive, to be advanced,
it need be, to the Government of that Re
public immediately after the ratification
of the treaty. It might he inconvenient
fur the Mexican Government to wait for
the whole sum, the payment of which may
be stipulated by this treaty until it could
be ratified by the Senate, and an appro
priation to carry it into effect made by
Congress.
Indeed, the necessity for their delay
might defeat the object altogether. The
disbursement of this money would, of
course, be accounted fur not as secret ser
vice money, but like other expenditures.
Two precedents for such a proceeding
exist in past history during the adminis
tration of Mr. Jefferson, to which I would
call your attention. On the f.'.6th of Fe
bruary, 1803, an act was passed appropri
sting too millions of dollars for the
purpose of defraying any extraordinary
expenditures which may he incurred in
the intercourse between the the United
States and foreign nations, to be applied
under the direction of the President of
the United States, who shall cause an ac
count thereof to be laid before Congress
as soon as may be ; and on the 13th of
Frebruary, 1806, an appropriation was
made of the same and on the same terms.
In neither case was the mohey actually
drawn from the Treasury ; and I should
hope a result in this respect might be sim
ilar on the present occasion, although the
appropriation may prove to be indispensi
ble in accomplishing this object. I would
therefore recommend the passage of a law
appropriating two millions of dollars, to
be placed at the disposal of the Executive
for the purpose I have indicated. In or
der to prevent all misapprehensions, it is
my duty to state that, anxious as I sin to
tei'minate the existing war with the least
possible delay, it will continue to be pros•
ecuted with utmost vigor until a treaty
of peace shall be signed by the parties,
and ratified by the Mexican republic.

Captain May's own Discription of
his Charge.
Having had the pleasure of a long con
versation with Capt. May, we finally ask
ed him to give us a description of his
charge, that we might get at the exact
particulars. The gallant Captain twisted
about his long beard, evidently somewhat
confused, and after considerable hesitation
said: —"Why you see, the fact is any of
the boys would have given their lives, to
have had the chance to have charged the
batteries, only [ was the lucky one in get
ting the order, After the old man gave
the order, f rode down the road, my men

ARRESTED ON SUSPICION OF MURDER.-
Two young men says the Danville Demo

of Darry township, were arrested and put
in jail on the 10111 inst., on suspicion of
having, some time in September, 11345,
murdered a young girl, nrmed Margaret,
daughter of Archbald Carr, of the same
township, the body of whom is said to have
been found in a neighboring woods a few
days since. Margaret Care, who was a
cousin to butt► prisoners, has been misting
since September last, having disappeared
under the most singular circumstances.—

nearly all the drudgery of agriculture, the
young men being in the army, receive I 5

by women, break the stone and mend the

fare is a piece of rye bread for breakfast ;
for dinner a soup about as substantial as a
mixture of warm water and salt, a boiled
sausage, and rye bread : in the evening
their frugal meal is solaced by the compas

exclusion of tea and coffee.

SIX DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.
The news brought by the Great Wee tern
is six days later than that received bythe
last steamer.
The harvest in the south of France is
baking some progress, but the result does
not seem to be very satisfactory. The ex
traordinary heat of the temperature in June
and July has caused a notable deficiency in
the crops.
The Queen has been pleased to approve
of Mr. James Flora, as Consul at Manches
ter for the United States of America.
It appears that the failure in the apple
crop is likely to be genera! throughout Eu
rope.
It is stated that the Russian government is
in consternation at the apprehended total
failure of the present harvest.

The Chamber of Commerce at Liverpool
had addressed a highly complimentary letter

about a settlement of the difficulties between

tion alone.
Mr. McLane appeared greatly pleeser,
with so gratifying a compliment erig.ii:turg
from that important body, and expressing as
it did, the strong feelings of respect enter
tained for his character, and of the high sense
of the efficient services rendered both to
America and England, in the peaceful settle
ment of this question, of which Lord Aber
deen had also previously, in the House of
Lords, borne honorable testimony.—To this
address Mr. McLane made an excellent re
ply from which we extract the following :
I agree with you, gentlemen, in thinking
that the temper manifested by both nations in
the settlement of the question ought to be
an example to the world at large, and, may I
not add, that it affords a sure guarantee of
the cordial amity by which our tuture inter
course will be distinguished. It is gratifying
to reflect that the terms upon which the
question, at one time apparently so critical,
has been adjusted, have been generally satis
factory to the governments and the people of
both countries, leaving nothing behind to
disturb the harmony of our future relations.
It is also worthy of congratulation, that by
the convention recently concluded the only
remaining queston growing out of the treaty
of 1783, has been finally settled, and that
hereafter our people, though of separate na
tions, acknowledging a common origin and
history, speaking the same language, alike
boasting constitutional liberty, regulated by
law, and intimately associated in commerce
and the arts, may start forward in a new cii
reer of international intercourse, without ap
prehension from any ancient cause of preju
dice or ill will. No one, I assure you, more
fervently hopes that the future may remain
as free from any fresh cause of disagree.

A WOMAN KILLED MIER , HUSBAND At
HER OWN REQUEST.—The following extra•
ordinary case occurred a short time since in
Wurtemburgh; we find it related in a fur.
eign journal:
Adam Gayring, a man sixty four years of
age, of honest and upright dealings; loved
and respected by all who knew him, presen
ted himself on the Bth ulth., before the au
thorities at Heidenheim, and stated calmly
that he had just killed his wife. His &elm.
ration was immediately taken as follows:—*
"My wife," he said, "as every one knows,
has been suffering ter a long time from ill
ness, and at times the pains she had to en
dure where euch as to affect her reason; she
latterly gave up all hopes of recovery, and
continually repeated that not only was life a
torment to her, but that she feared that if I
died before her, she would be reduced to mis
ery. This morning, after we had read to
gether the 4th chapter of the Book of Judg
es, (they were devout people and read the
Bible every day,) she requested me to drive
a nail into her tomplo, no Joel did to
