MR. DAVIS & MR. DUDHANAN , [Pursuing with obviously deliberate in tention the most malignant course possible towards Senator DAVIS, of Massachusetts, the Globe newspaper has published a long elaborated report of a reply made by Mr. Senator BUCHANAN to the explanatory speech of Mr. Senator DAVIS, and with that reply some notice of the residue of the de bate upon the subject, suppressing even the fact that Mr. DAVIS promptly rejoined to that reply, and thus leaving it to be nem'. .sarily inferred that, after all that the Sena tor from Pennsylvania had said, the Sena tor from Massachusetts had not a word to say for himselfl—Under these eircumsten ces, without publishing, at the same time the residue of the Debate, we supply to-day, (on one,of the inner pages,) for the public information, the rejoinder of Mr. DAVIS, o which all notice is omitted by the Globe.] —Daily Nattonai intelligencer. REJOINDER OF MR. DAVIS, OF MASS. TO MR. BUCHANAN. On the 6th of March, Mr. DAVIS replied to the argument of Mr.lluctiastAsi, in which Mr. B. complained that he was misrepre sented in the speech of Mr. Davis on the sub-Treasury bill; Mr. B. rejoined, and what follows is the reply of Mr. D. to that rejoinor. Mr. PRESIDENT : The member from Pennsylvania (Mr. BUCHANAN) is of opin. ion that 1 have not met one of his charges, and is pleased, in the exorcise of his cour tesy, to say I have evaded them, and made a false issue. Nothing can ho more unjust ----nothing more untrue, as I view the mat ter ; and how far'it becomes him to make such declarations, alter declining to point out more distinctly his causes of complaint, you and others must judge. Sir, I have no cause for evasion or a false issue ; the plain matters of fact are enough for me, and I will take care that the member does not escape from them by an issue varying much, as I think, from that made in the outset. if his opinions aro scrutinized by the public—if they aro found unpalatable, and the tido of public opinion rolls back upon him, he will not escape from his res. ponsibility by turning upon me, and rais ing a controversy here about the influence of the sub-Treasury in introducing a hard-' money currency. Sir; I did not rise to re tort the indecorous language of the mem ber. Harsh epithets can add nothing to the force of truth, nor can violent language strengthen a feeble or false argument. They contribute nothing to the dignity of the Senator, are a violation of the rules of this body, and will bo estimated by the public, as they are, unworthy of this place. Why is this matter brought here at this late day ? He does not question the identity of the speech I delivered here and theone in print. This he cannot do ; but com plains, among other things, of attacks made upon him in the public press. This is the secret of the whole matter. The uountry condemns his opinions on wages. The la. borers aro startled at the thought of being brought down to " tho standard prices through Out the world." This is the topic on which the press speaks, as far as I have met its language, and this the Senator has labored to explain by reading from his speeches ; but he does not read the parts of his late speech to which I chiefly replied, and to which I have drawn his attention, but the public shall have an opportunity to lead it, and judge for themselves whether it can have any interpretation but that giv en to it. ' But the Senator now, for the first time, as fir as I have hoard, assorts that he did not hear the whole of my speech. Not hear it, when it was mostly a comment up on his remarks, and he present and near mo ! If he did not hear at all, why did he speak to me at the close as if he bad?— Why did he use complimentary language, which I shall not repeat in this place 7 But, sir, what is the issue made now? It has dwindled down into this : The grava men, as he expresses it, is, that I have put into his mouth words that he never used in regard to the influence which the sub-Trea sury may have in introducing a specie cur rency. I have made him also, he thinks, too much of a hard-money man. I do not, in stating his objections, pretend to use his words, for that is out of my power. In treating of this subject, he has reviewed his opinions upon banks, excessive issues of pa per, a mixed currency, the reduction of the currency, and the effect on wages. Though he states the gravamen to be what I have described, yet ho has thought it necessary to dwell on all these matters, and especially to labor to prove that he is in favor of banks and a mixed currency, and that he is not for coming down to hard money alone, or for reducing wages to the hard money rs l ,standard. But, sir, he does not come to 'the point to which I have called his atten tion. I asked him more than once to tell ma what ho means in his speech, wherein, speaking of the failure in success of our manufacturers and the remedy for that evil, ho says, among other language equal ly forcible " Reduce our nominal to the real standard of prices throughout the world, and you cover the country with bles sings and benefits." This, ho contended, is what the intoiests of the manufacturers require. Yes, sir, to reduce thus the pri ces of production and wages. 1 asked him what this standard of prices throughout the world was, and whether it was not hard money. But to this no answer has been made. He does not meet the inquiry, but affirms he is for a mixed currency ;and not for reducing wages to the humble pay of the serfs of Europe; bat what is the meaning of this part of his speech ? Has it none T or, if it has any, what is it 7 He is for re ducing " the paper bubble," in other words bank paper, to this standard ; and this is' " to cover the country with blessings and benefits." Sir, take this language in con nexion a ith what 1 read from the member's speech this morning, and who can halt or &ib' ns to the meaning. IF the sense ho not that 4 - the paper bubble" is to be reduc e ed till the price of wages, and every thing olss, comes to be as,low as it is in hard. money countries, then it has, in my judg ment no, intelligible meaning. There is no qualifying or altering it ; and yet I am charged with making him too much of a hard-money man. Sir, the Senator is un conscious what language he uses about banks— a tone of severe reproof and denun ciation runs through his speech against our system, which he affirms to be the worst in the world ; and even now, in speaking of them, while he disclaims being a hard money man, he says they have hugged the manufacturers to death. Whatever else his printed speech contains, the parts which I read, when last up, caimot be perused without making the interference which I draw from it, and it will be so understood wherever it is rend. Rut, sir, the Senator complains that I have put words into his mouth. What words have I put into his mouth? Whore are they, and what are they? Is this a fair representation? 1 have stated his opinions, his arguments, and his views of policy, but, with the exception-of one or two instances, about which I have beard no complaint, 1 have not pretended to use his words. This is apparent on the face of my speech, and yet he repeats that I have put words into his mouth. Ho thinks I have not only made him too much of a hard mono, man, but have im puted to him an opinion that the bill will have a greater tendency to restrain the is sues of bank paper, and to introduce hard money, than ho contended for. He admits that it is to have some influence—how much does not appear. Have I not shown that he is in favor of a reduction of prices "to the standard of prices throughout the world?" Have I not shown that he con tends for this as a wise policy, that we may obtain exclusive possession of our own markets, and enter successfully with our manufactures and products the markets of the world, by selling as low as any country? Have I not shown that this standard of pri ces, as it is called, Is identical, in all its ef. fects, with the standard of prices in' hard money countries? Have I not shown that this reduction in prices, both of wages'and property, is proposed to be accomplished by reducing the amount of our currency till prices are brought to this standard? And have I not shown all this by the printed speech of the Senator, as put forth with his approbatien? Is not the 'language and the conclusions irresistible? It will, it must be so understood by all who read it. After all this—after a delay of six weeks without complaint till the doctrine was con demned by the Public, and after bringing the Senator to this point—after showing that he is in favor of German prices, and that he calls Germany emphatically a hard money country, he complains that I made him too much of a hard money man, and that I make him express the opinion that the Sub Treasury bill will bring things nea rer to this result than he contended for, or believed it would! What if it should pro duce this result? What if it should go her yond his anticipations? What if there is a misapprehension by his views as to the extent of its influence—of what conse quence is it? It will only carry out his views and policy more strongly than he an ticipated—and that policy, he says, would "cover the country with blessings and bene fits." He cannot seriously regret this, if it should turn out to be so. It is, sir, a small matter, and will be so regarded. For he will not deny that he is for a reduction of the currency, and that such a reduction, in his opinion, will reduce prices, and conse quently the price of labor, for the reason ing of most of his speech goes to that point. Nor will he deny that, in his opinion, the bill tends to reduce the currency, and will thus carry out these views as far as its pro visions can carry them. It is, therefore, part and parcel of this policy, and has been and is so understood every where. It is_ too late to come w:th such a complaint, as the Senator might have corrected and fixed the limit of influence he ascribed to the bill, it he had chosen to do it, on the spot, or ho might have done it at this time, in unobjec tionable terms, if that was his only purpose. Am I, under such circumstances, to be re buked for inferring that his arguments had some connexion with the bill? The bill was the topic of discussion: and is it singular, when the speech was chiefly spent on banks, currency, and the reduction of prices, that we should infer that the arguments were de signed to have some pertinent application to the subject? That they were designed, to enforce and illustrate the policy to be in troduced by the measure under considera tion? If they were not urged for this pur pose,for what end were they brought forward. But, sir,my object in raising was-announ ced in the onset to be limited to a reply to the doctrines and opinions of the Senator, and chiefly to those which related to manu facturing and labor. My attention was at tracted by these, as my speech fully proves, and my object was to test their soundness, and not weigh, or consider the exact ingu. ences of the bill in carrying out these doc trines and opinions. The power of the bill was a subordinate matter, and will be so considered by the public. It may answer to talk about here, but will be of little avail. Attention is and will be directed to the pol icy; to the reduction of wages and property advocated by the Senbtor. The public will be content, as I arn, that he should limit the power of the bill where he pleases,white his arguments, show its tendency is towards the establishment of his general policy. The doctrines and principles advanced 'will go out with it, and they must be subjected to scrutiny, as they cannot be shut out of view by a controversy about the probable degree of effect of the bill. The doctrines go to the German standard of prices; and at that point they will hold the Senator.— But, in the opinion of the Senator, I make him a hard money man, contrary to my ex)ress admission that he is for a mixed currency. Not so. Ho makes hirOsoll such, against his own declarations. He takes both grounds, and I give him credit for it in my speech; and it is for him, and not for !no, to harmonize the opinions. • The Senator has reiterated an isolated sentence of my speech, and again 'lifers that I have represented him . as arguing that wages and property will be reduced one half. I have several . times told him dis- 1 tinctly that such was not my meaning,-nor was it the fair construction of the' whole text. 1 arguvd simply that he was in favor of reduction, without intending to say how much. I assured him that my purpose did not go beyond that. This was duo to him, for ho gave a meaning to the language that was not 'designed to be conveyed. With this he is not content, but persists in his own construction, re-asserting it in acrimonious language. While ho does this, he admits that if ho had made such a proposition, it might have been justly characterized as fla gitious. Now, sir, 1 leave you and all oth ers to determine whetherA reduction of wages and property to German prices, with labor at n few pence a day, is a descent of one-half; whether such a process reaches hard money, whether it will "cover the country with blessings and benefits," or be flagitious. Sir, the Senator is of tl.o opinion that I would hold him and his friends up as ene mies of the laborers. This again is a great mistake. I have spoken of his opinions,his statements, and his views of policy—not of his motives or feelings. I have traced his arguments out into their consequences, and ' left the matter there for approval or con demnation—but have neither held the Sen ators nor his friends up as enemies of any body. If I could be surprised at any thing, it would be at the tone assumed in this con troversy. Tho Senator talks of my hecto ring him, and ono would think he consider ed the the aggressor. Sir, lot all who have heard and witnessed what has passed bear testimony to the unfounded character of such a suggestion, and to the manner in which the Senator proceeded to correct what at most could be no more than a mis. approheimen. The matter is unprovoked, and of the 'Senator's own seeking. Any misapprehension would have been cheerful ly set right, if it had been pointed out in terms of courtesy. But the Senator chose to make this appeal in the way and manner . in which it has been done, accompanied by language which is unparliamentary, ungen tlemanly, and untrue; and let the tribunal to which ho has appealed decide between us, and determine whether I have met his corn plaints,and whether there is the least ground to sustain his charge of misrepresentation. From the Ilatrisburg Daily Telegraph. THE SUB-TREASURY AND PRICES OF LABOR. There can be no doubt but that President VAN BUREN copied his Sub-treasury scheme from the establishment at present existing in Russia ; and under it, the President will be elevated to a similar position in regard to the finance of this country, that the Au tocrat of Russia occupies in regard to the finance of his dominions. In his late an nual message, President Van Buren dis tinctly tells us that ho has received infor mation from twenty foreign •Governments in which the same system is in force, and that tho late speech of Mr. Buchanan in ref erence to France and Germany, prcves t hat he had been well instructed by the Presi dent, in the view proper to be taken of the subject. Wo again invite attention to the following paragraphs, quoted from the speech of Mr. Buchanan, as published in the Globe, Keystone, Reporter, State Cap ital Gazette, and the other papers of the Van Buren party. " At particular stages of our expansions we might with justice apply the principle which I have stated to our trade with these countries, and assert that, from the great redundancy of our currency, articles are manufactured in France and Germany for one half their actual cost in this country. Let me present an example, " In Germany, where the currency is purely metallic, and cost of every thing is REDUCED to a hard money standard, a piece of broadcloth can be manufactured for fifteen dollars; the manufacture of which, in our country, from the expansion of paper currency, would cost one hundred dollars. What is the consequence? , The foreign French and German manufacturer imports this cloth into our country, and sells it for a hundred dollars. Does not every person perceive that the redundancy of our curren cy is equal to a premium of one hundred peuent. in favor of the foreign manufac turer? 4g No tamfof protection, unless it amoun ted to prohibition, could counteract this ad vantage in favor of foreign manufactures. 1 would to Heaven that I could arouse the attention of every manufacturer of the na tion to this important subject." 46 What is the reason that, with all these advantarms and with the protective duties which our laws afford to the domestic man ulacturer of cotton, we cannot obtain exclu sive possession of the home market and successfully contend for the marketa of the world? /t is simply because we manufac ture at the nominal prices of our own infla ted currency, and are compelled to sell at real prices of other nations. REDUCE OUR NOMINAL TO THE REAL STANDARD OF PRICES THROUGH OUT THE WORLD, and you cover our country with blessings and benefits." " The comparative LOW PRICES of France and Germany have afforded such a stimuitis to their manufactures, that they are nJw rapidly extending themselves, and would obtain possession, in no small de gree, even of the English home market. I IT WERE NOT FOR THEIR PRO TECTING DUTIES. Whilst British manufacturers are now languishing, those of the continent are springing into a heal thy and vigorous existence." No one acquainted with the English lan gunge can doubt a moment the meaning of the foregoing. It is plain. The whole ar gument of Mr. Buchenan's speech is, that there lies been too much money in the country, and that the " nominal", amount ought to be reduced to the " real standard throughout the world." He expressly uses this language in the foregoing extract!. We again call upon the laboring classes, upon all men in middling circumstances, and upon all men in debt, to ponder well this reducing doctrine before they give it their support. In our opinion it will prove their ruin, while the reduction of every thing else, (except the debts of the honest men,) will add in precisely the same ratio to the salaries of the national oflicehold- ei s. A II great momentary convulsions operate most severely upon the producing classes. First the employer who has brought his article to its finished state is unable by rea son of economical derangements, to sell nt a price sufficient to pay him for the time and cost of its construction. lie is there. fore compelled to reduce the wages of the operatives in Ins employ, or perhaps dis charge them.—These poor men, unable to get work or bread, turn their attention to other pursuits, supplant the regular opera. tives by " ratting" for wages barely suffi cient to sustain lite, and add to their own misery that of others. This is partictilar ly the case now in New York and Phila. delphia, and many poor but honest men in those cities are now suffering severely un• der the incipient screwings of the Sub.trea sury—they are already groaning under the operation of the measures which are to "reduce our nominal prices to the real stan dard throughout the world, and cover the country with blessings and Guilts ! ! In the meantime tho very wealthy, and the officeholders, are profiting by this dis tress—because the evidences of indebted ness to them, which the former hold do not decrease and the latter are able to buy a great deal mom labor end prothice than in prosperous times. The following article from the New Yolk Express is interesting. REDUCTION OF WAG ES. It has been a matter of complaint with the Evening Post, that the mechanics, while freights were high, have reduced the wages of stevedores, and laborers along the wharves. This does not come well from the organ of the Custom House, which has been reducing the wages of its laborers, while its &alarm., are untouched, but we are disposed, nevertheless to let the Post have what of benefits its party can gather from it, after a few remarks. If freights aro high, and ships aro doing well, they aro an exception, almost the only, to the general prostration. This ex ception arises from the extreme prostration of the producing classes, inasmuch as all products are so low, that we are now forced to undersell Foreigners in our own markets, and our ships carry off these products.— The paralysis, though in other branches of business is such, as to throw many mechan ics, and with good trades, into now employ ments, such as loading vessels for example, ane thus where there is an excess of labor, there is a natural fall of price. Por an ex ample we take from the Buffalo Advertiser the following scale. TABLE OF PRICES. As compared with those of 1836. 1840. 1839. Joiners, per diem $1 25 $2 00 Bricklayers, 150 200 Stone cutters, 150 250 " masons, 125 175 Plasterers, 139 200 Laborers, 67 100 $7 55 $ll 25 Reduction of labor, forty per cent. , BUILDING MATERIALS. 1840. 1830. Brick pressed, $l5 50 $25 00 .g sott, 400 800 Stone, per cord, 450 ' 700 Lime per bbl. 44 75 Shingles, per M. 150 250 Clear Pine, 18 00 30 00 Hemlock Joist, 6 00 10 00 Scantling, 6 00 9 00 $59 19 $95 25 "1 ardently wish to see this country in the condition of the island of Cuba" is the quotation from a late speech of the Van Buren Senator, Mr. Walker from Missis sippi. Mr. Benton has preached up Flol land ab a pattern state, and the Globe has at times quoted, with approbation, the finance of China. To reach these beau ideals of the friends of the Post, there must of neces sity be a reduction of wages. When there is no credit, labor must be low. When the currency is contracted too much, there can be but little enterprize. When, as in Hol land and Cuba, the rich are very rich, and the poor are very poor, the wages of the Laborer , must be low. Credit is the great Impelling, and the great levelling power too of such a Republic as ours—but the Loco Foco experiments upon us, have destroyed that credit, and the consequence is a great REDUCTION IN THE VALUE OF ALL PROPER• TY, AND A GREAT REDUCTION TOO IN THE PRICE OF LABOR. THE BOUNDARY QUESTION. Not having space at present for the "ex citing" correspondence which has lately taken place between Mr. Fox, the British Minister, and Mr. Secretary Forsyth, in regard to the border difficulty, we extract the subjoined short synopsis of this corres• pondence from a New York paper, as con taining the pith and marrow of the mutter. The attentive reader will bear in mind that the original or main question of the bounda ry, is lost sight of in this correspondence, an incidental or secondary orie—relative to the occupation of the disputed territory having " ruled the hour," with the parties to it. " Mr. Fox writes to Mr. Forsyth that the British Government is much disotisfied with the aggressions of Mame upon the Madawaska settlements, and that, as they are persisted in and justilild, it becomes necessary for Great Britain to take the necessary measures for counteraction. Mr. Forsyth, in reply, argues the ques• tion.of what the Madawaska settlements consist; contending that they do not inr dude the valley of the Upper St. Jelin, and therefore that the Maine people have not violated the agreement of their Glover nor, by pushing their posse into that valley. He writes strongly—we might almost say sharply—and gives Mr. Fox distinctly to understand that no threat of " consequcn• ces" will prevent the Government of the United States from sustaining the, Maine people in their late acts and preknt posi tion. Mr. Fox in reply says that he can make no answer to Mr. Forsyth, but must trans mit that gentleman's letter to the consider ation of his government. Not to fall short of Mr. Forsyth, however, in energy of ex pression, ho reiterates the menaces of " consequences"--and so the matter stands. The conclusions we arrive at are briefly these. 1. That wo were right in conjecturing, the other day, that Sir John Ilarvey had received " renewed instructions from his Government" to take a little military pos• session. 2. That this new dispute that has sprung up is eminently useless, unnecessary and inconsequential. Because the Government of Great Britain has under consideration a proposal from our Government for another arbitration, which may, ought to, and pro bably will, bring about an adjustment of the whole controversy. 3. That Great Britain ought not to de lay so long in responding to the proposal; and that, pending the delay, she ought not to do any thing tending to create new em barrassments. 4. That there is no probability of war— which would be the wickedest and most senseless thing imaginable. And 5. That every body will do well to keep cool and exercise yet a little more of that patience which has kept this matter quiet, though alive, for the last fifty years and . upward." With regard to the probability of difii• culties, in the filial adjustment of this bor der question, •we say now as we have al ways said, that, without gross mismanage meat on one at least, if not on both sides, it is impossible to anticipate a WAR, between two such nations, could grow out of such a question—a question which compromises in no degree the honor or groat interests of either, but which is resolved merely in to a question of fact, as to the metes and bonds of an existing treaty. Time has changed the face of the country, and thence, probably, the principal difficulty, in identi fying the true boundary recognized by the treaty. But could a war between dime powerful nations throw any, the smallest light upon such a question, or enable either, the bolter to identify the true treaty line ? This question would be to the last degree ridieu• toes, if it did not refer to a subject of so momentous and so sorious as that of war. A war between the United States and Great Britain, would be no " child's play." It might by possibility, and though ill advi• sed, infatuated cousels be entered upon. But who could foresee the end of the strug. gle, or how much of blood and treasure it would cost both sides, before it could be terminated with as much honor as it might have been avoided 1 We trust that neither nation nor government will lightly entertain the notion of a war with the other. But if war is by any means probable, or even possible, between these great powers —and the Government organ at Washing ton seems to favor the notion that it is—the fact furnishes another incentive to the friends of Harrison and Reforrri, to perse vere in the good work which they have commenced. There is no sort of doubt but the prudent and sagacious counsels which would surround such a man as Presi dent Harrison, would soon servo to bring the Boundary question to an amicable ad justment, and in a way honorable to both nations. But if the worst should come to the worst, and the two nations should be in volved in sanguinary war before the 4th of March next, the necessity is but the great er for the election of General Harrison. The whole American people know who and what General Harrison is, and how sure the reliance may be on him, in tho day of trial in the tented field. But who knows any thing of, or who can place confidence in, " General Van Buron 7" Whether it be peace or war, therefore, and especially whether it be peace, or mis understanding and difficulty which may lead to war, the conclusion in a political point of view is precisely the same. For, in both cases, all experience would point to the wisdom of a change of rulers, and pro claim the necessity of relieving the cold and cunning politician, how at the head of affairs, front the power which he misuses, and of elevating in his stead the honest and true hearted Harrison—the man " who was in more engagements, during the last war, than any other general, and never lost a battle!" TEXAS—MEXICO—NEW REPUBLIC. Advices from Texas to the 7th instant have been received at New Orleans. The Bee has the following intelligence: A letter from Col. Fisher, published in the Houston Star of the 2d, gives much in formation respecting the Federal urm) in Mexico. The convention nt Laredo,declaring their independence from the Republic of Mexico, and organizing the provisional government of the Republic of Rio Grande, claim all the country formerly known as Tamaulipas, as far as the Neucas and Coshuna as far as the Medina rivers, and into the interior as far as the mountains, (La Sierra Madre) embracing New Leon Zacatecas, Durango, Chihuahua and New Mexico—for which purpose they met at Laredo, within the limits of Texas,according to the established limits of our laws. The Central troops undor the command of Gen. Marines Arrista, left Monterey in pursuit of the Federalists, and were march ing in several small divisions Inwards the Rio Grande. The Cumanche Indians, to the number of about 500 warriors, made au incursion into Mexico and penetrated 'as far as the '.Real do Catorce," (in the state of San Louis Potosi,) committing great depre dations upon the lives and the property of the Mexicans—on their return from the in terior, they roll in ut Salinas, with a divi sion of 200 infantry of General Arista's force, and attacked and killed every man. The federal, or rather the Independant ar my, at Laredo Guerro and Casa Blanca, amount to the number of from 1000 to 1209 men. General Arista's force, was, previ ous to the attack, 5:00 men, cavalry, info a. try and artillery. Gen. Canalize is still at I Matainorns, with about 000 men of the Cen tral forces. A delegation of the Cherokee Indians visited Monclova, and applied to the gov ernment of fin. a grant of land for their tribe, the government however refused the petition of granting land to the whole tribe, but made them un offer for 205 fami lies only, which the delegation refused to accept. The land offered ie about San Fer nando and Santo Rosa, on the other side of Rio Grande. Tho above news was received at Sun An tonio, a few days before my departure from that place, brought by some Americans and Mexicans,who arrived there from Monclova, and who were present at the installation of the new government nt Laredo. Colonel Fisher regards the now govern ment with distrust. He says, their claim to the lands lying between the Nucces and Rio Grande rivers, is an infringement upon the possessions of Texas, which should not be acceded to. Ile warns the people of Texas to be in readiness in the event of the new state being attacked by central Mexico, and the federalists driven to refuge upon the soil of Texas, lest in such an event both parties should combine to reduce Boxer and the city of Austin; and suggest the proprie ty of Texas taking immediate steps to se cure the entension of her boundary to tho banks of the Bravo, whilst a barrier is rai sed by the establishment of the provisional government of Rio Grande, between her and Central Mexico. 'rho Lipan Indians were committing dep redation upon t ravellers and dvfenceless per sons on the Colorado, in the neighborhood of Bastrop. A Spanish dollar bearing date of 1793, was recently picked up on the gulf shore— supposed to bo some of Lafitte's surplus rev enue. The anniversary dinner of the battle of Jan Jacinto, wont off with groat eclat, Gen. Sam'l Houston, Commodore Moore and a number of naval and army officers woro present. A man named Rawson c!iarged with ex tensive forgeries on the old Michigan Rank, has been given up to two officers, from the United States. The Cumanches were willing to obtain peace on nearly any terms. They have promised that all their choirs should come into Barer, bringing with them all their prisoners, by the 15th of March. From the Philadelphia Exchange Books LOUISVILLE (ICY.) IN FLAMES. We are indebted to a friend for the follow ing extract of a letter dated LocisviLLH, (Ky.) March 27, 1940. "This day I arrived hero, and saw one of the largest fires I ever remember, ex cept the great fire in Now York. It origi nated in Main street, between Second and Third, about midnight, extending in its course on both sides, up and down, to Market E. treot, and the other side to the river; and is still raging at 6 A. M., with unabated fury, and no knowing where it will stop. They are pulling down houses in order to stop its progress. I fear the Louisville Bank, (a very fine building,) said to be fire proof, will not he saved. At 7 1.. M. the fire is still raging—Bank out of danger. One whole block of build ings in the most business part of the city burnt to the ground. 'rho gutters are ono continued sheet of flume.', owing to the li quor which has been emptied out of some of the stores. Tho boat by which I write will leave in twenty minutes, and I must necessarily close this account." ACAIVAL OF THE RELIEF.—The U. S. ship Relief, of the Exploring Expedition, and last from Rio. has arrived at Now York. The New York Herald states, on the authority of somo of tho crew, that there are upwards of two thousand Amori. can and English sailors--at least fifteen hundred—on the various islands in the Pa cific, who wore enticed away from the dif ferent whalers and othor vessels, by the na tive women, and landed for mutinous con duct. "The main portion of these poor fellows aro compelled to sleep on the ground,which is strongly impregnated with saltpetre. Af ter being six months ashore, completely naked and exposed, drinking a peculiar in toxicating liquor, used in these regions, their legs swell, and they become bloated and puffed up till they look like so many large oblong bladders. When once on shore they seldom leave,for they are thence forth not worth a fig. They become mis erably indolent, and lazy, are treated like dogs by the natives, with perhaps few ex ceptions. Many curious animals have arrived in this vessel. Liout. Long has brought home two remarkable dogs. One he picked up at Sidney, and the other at Terra del Fuego —also a splendid white cock-a• too, with a long queue like a celestial—a rare bird, obtainable only at New Holland.

The office of the 4 STAn. AND BAN NER" has . been removed to the Coun ty Building, in the room immediately over the office of the Register and Re corder. We have been requested to state that several errors occurred in the Report of the York Springs Anti-Slavery society, published in our paper a few weeks since. Wo no doubt, ••vcry much gratify and truly oblige" S. V. IL by giving place to his articlo in to-day's paper; and we can assure the author that ho would "truly oblige" us, by paying more atten tion to the grammatical construction of his pro ductionn in future, as the article in question con tains a number of errors rather too bold for an SAMVEL BLAKE, Esq. of Hampton, bas been appointed Deputy Marshall, to take the Census of Adams county. A DJOUR NM ms - r.—Beth Houses of the Le,gisla tore of this State, bare resolved to adjourn on the 16th inst. SMALLZr The Resolution, introduced in the Senate, on 4441ie first instant, by Mr. Bezz. authorizing the Banks to issue one, two, and three dollar bills, payable on demand in specie, finally passed that body on Saturday last.—lts passage through the House is thought to be almost certain. HannisoN V CTOU r.—The Democratic Har rison men of Mobile have elected all the officers except two Aldermen of that city, by a very large majority. Last year the Locufocos carried their ticket in Mobile by a majority of 353. The shouts of victory for the catLze of the Hero of Tippeca noe, are wafted on almost every breeze. STATE CON-VESTION. Our proposition for the holding of a Harrison Convention in •the only democratic city in the Union" appears to be seconded by most of our neighbors—the time is the only objectionable part. We shall not stickle for that. It was a sugges tion, made under the belief, that a convention would be held semen here in the State during the canvass, and that Lancaster was the proper spot. It is easy of access—conventions arc rarely held there—that county can compete with any could!' in the Union in her attachment to Harrisonism, (our neighbor in New York to the contrary not withstanding,) and they would no doubt gladly extend their hospitality to their friends. The day is immaterial to us. Those we suggested would be proper ones, from the connection of our candidate with them. We propose that the State Committee settle all preliminaries. YOUNG MEN'S CONVENTION* This hotly which is to sus - cmble at Baltimore - • on the first Monday of May next, (the 4th.) bids fair to rival in talent and to exceed in numbers any that has ever assembled in the Union. It will be a curiosity to lookers-on—a coming to gether of the Log cabin boys of the nation—and a terror to Loco loceism. The fourth of May will be a day such as the monumental city has not hitherto witnessed --the whole Union will be there by hundreds of delegates—Leg Cabin will be smoking in every quarter—and hard cider will be the best commodity in the market. We trust old Adams will be there in her might, and that • her attachment to the Hem c; North Bend will be exhibited by sending scores of delegates. No apprehension need be entertained a atcreiti o n while there: as in addition to the extensive ac commed.itions of a city—together with the Log cabins to be used 'y a number of delegations for theinselves—our Harrison friends bare given an . assurance that "warmest vrelcome, public and private of Baltimoreans awaits us." the ...strtugs of their doors" will be hung curby, the time we Come that way, that we may pull and enla% GOLD AND SILVER COM•drIIE HARD MONEV•CURRENCY. Our rraders all remember the confident promi ses made to the people by the Loco feces, to re f,rsn the currency, and make gold and silver take the place of °filthy rags" So soon as they should h a ve the control of all branches of Cho govern ment. The people believed them, and gave them the Governor, Senate, and Houma of Representa tiv, a as well as a majority in all the branches of the National government. How do they fulfil their promises? Our Legislature have just passed a bill legalizing the suspension of specie pyment until the 15th day of January next; repealing all the penalties heretofore existing for refusing to redeem their notes in coin, and allowing them to make dividends, notwithstanding such suspension! The bill also provides for a loan of $3,000,0011 to be added to the State debt, being the third loan bill of this st , ssion. This bank law we deem the most licentious which the most bank-baught Le gislature could have invented. By the law of 1824. whenever a bank refused to pay its debts, in ninety days, its charter might be forfeited; and during the suspension, if the notes were "mark ed" or endorsed, as any holder of them had a right to have done, they bore nn interest of twelve per cent. against the bank of the United States, and of six per cent. per annum against the other banks, until redeemed in coin;—and during such suspension the banks were prohibited from ma king new loans, and from declaring dividends.— All these restrictions are now repealed, and the banks are under no' obligation to pay hard mo ney, or restrain their issues, or withhold divi dends. Such are the practices of this anti-bank, bard-money, gold-humbug party! Are they fools or knaves? The answer is plain. The leaders are knaves, and the people have been deceived.— Let them show their abhorrence of their betrayers by abandoning them forever. It is the only way to restore tho prosperity of the country. Wo cut the following from the Carlisle Volun teer, a Locofoco print : HUZZA FOR HARRISON I—The democrats have elected one Justice of the Peace in Gettysburg, JOEL B. DANNER, F,sq., undor the very nose of Thaddeus Stevens. The vote stood for Danner, 140—for J. F. Mac farlane, (the same individual who run a gainst Gen. Miller for the Senate,) 144 ! Truly the cause of Harrison must be bright ning in old federal Adams. Although we are not grieved to see our oppo nents thus croaing over the election of one Loco foco, out of our whole ticket at the late election, who was successful, not fey a party vote, but through the magnanimity of his opponents who voted for him, yet not so fast, neighbor ! Pluck first the beam out of thine own eye, that thou mayst see clearly how to take the mote from thy neighbor's. The Volunteer had better bestir him self, lest in his goodly democratic borough the Log-Cabin boys should smother him in Harrison ism—they have come within a hair's breadth of despatching him now. Yet another struggle and all will be well. The Harrison ticket elected their Burgess, Assistant Burgess, a majority of Town Councilmen, one Justice, and three Consta blcs, out of four—leaving them the Judge of elections, Inspectors, Assessors and assistants, BchAl Directors and Town Clerk. The impor tant part of tho ticket elected are all friends of Gen. Harrison. The cause is o truly brighten ing" in Carlisle. EBAIIBOLII. WHO ABM BOUGHT NOWT Governor Porter and his party in tho Legisla ture have extended greater favors to tho Banks of the United States than the Anti-Masonic party over did. Indeed they have taken off all the wholesomo restrictions imposed by the Anti• M asonic Legislature, and legalized tho "suspension," which Governor Ritner refused to do. Will the Loco foco organs, the Globe and others of that stamp read as a small lesson upon.i , bribery and corruption," and inform us who are the guilty actors! DISGRACEFUL. A Scene in the House of Representatives Tho Harrisburg Chroniclo of Saturday last, says—d. Whilst the resolution, providing for the salo of the Motive Power, Bank Stock, &c. &c., belonging to the State, was under consideration this morning, in the House, a fight was again raised by M'Elwee, the drunken rowdy from Bedford. The facts of wnich are about as fol lows : Warm and personal remarks passed between Mr. M'Elwee and Huggins, of Northumberland. The Former finally left his seat and went to that of the latter, demanding Mr. Heggins' reason for the use of certain severe longuuge. Mr. H. answered that ho had used no language but tbrek, which ho had a right to use. Whereupon, Mr. M'Elwee called Mr. Heggins a ll—d puppy, and spit in his face—this, Mr. H. resented, by striking M'Elwee. Tho members hero interfering, no gentlemen wore seperated, but the House was in great confusion for some time. A resolution was adopted appointing a committee to inquire into the matter and report accordingly. M'Elwee is a large muscular man, and Mr. Hoggins a crip ple, not more than four feet high, and weekly at that. Wo can expect nothing else in the House as long as ouch monsters as M'Elweo ore suffered to remain in it. A man who is more than two thirds of his time intoxicated, and quarrelsome at that, is capable of doing little else than provoking fights. CoacnEss.—A bill authorizing tho Secretary of the Treasury to issue a batch of $5,000,000 of Treasury Shinplasters, has passed both Houses of Congress. The time of the House is still employ ed in discussing the propriety of printing the tes timony on the Now Jersey case. SUDDEN DELTn.—On Thursday last, Mr. Pe ter Girdling, of Cumberland township, veas found dead in a field adjoining his dwelling. Ho was engaged in sowing oats a few motneuts beforo, and most probably died from apoplexy. A coro ner's inquest was held by A. B. Kurtz, Esq. and a-verdict given of .4 Death by tho visitation of l'rovideuce." He has loft a wifo and six chil dren, principally young.— Sentinel. hIPOUTAKT DECISION.-011 Wednesday last, in the District Court of the city and county of Philadelphia, it was decided in an action brought by a livcrj stable keeper against four, young men, to receive the price of a horso killed by excessive driving that the plaintiff had no light of action, because the animal had liPen hired on Sunday, as —in the words of Judge Stroud—no contract en tered into for the performance or, fuyilment of work on the _Sabbath was legal. The Judge therefore, Idler hearing a portion only of the plaintiff's case, ordered a nonvuit to be catered. RESUMPTION RESOLUTIONS The resolutions offered by Mr. Dell, and amen ded in the Senate, have paused both Houses of the Legisleture, received the signature of the Govern or, and are now a law. The first section calls for the resumption of specie payments on the 15th of January, Vl4l, allowing the recovery of gold and silver to bill holders by common law. The second section provides for forfeiture of charter for suspension after the 16th of January, 1841. Tho third section provides penalty for falso swearing by of of banks. The fotirth section calls for the suspended banks to lend within a year, if called for by the common wealth, three millions of dollars, in proportion to their capital. The fifth section snort's banks to issue their own notes, and make dividends of six per centum per annum The sixth section provides for the repeal of any law that is altered or supplied by the five precc- ding sections GE N-. SCOTT.—It is well known to our readers, that Gen. WINFIELD SCOTT was among the persons proposed and voted for as a candidate for President at the Whig National Convention. Ho was at the South at the Limo that Convention was held, but ho has since acknowledged the honor in the following letter to the Hon. Will iam Honry, a Delegate to that Convention from Vermont : My Dear Sir hasten to congratulate you and your patriotic associates on the choice of a Whig candidate for the Presi dency of the United States, who shall have my prayers for his success; and I am high ly flattered at having received in the Con. vention, as lung as there was a rensonble hope of carrying me, a very respectable number of votes for the same distinguished position before my countrymen. • From what States other than New-York, New-Jersey and Vermont, if any, that sup. port was received, I am not yet informed; but my gratitude to each is as i great as if its partiality had resulted in my nomina tion. Having formed no expectation of becom ing the nominee of the Convention, nor definite wish for the Presidency itself, I am without mortification to express or con ceal ; and only regret that a short absence to the South will delay the gratification I shall ever- feel in testifying my thanks in person to the Delegates 'who, with their constituents, have so highly honored me. Please add to your many kindnesses that of making known my sentiments to such of those friends as you may chance to find yourself with in returning to your home, and believe me, my dear Sir, with the highest esteem, Your most obedient servant, WINFIELD SCOTT.
