IxdiaSa. The N. Y. Tribune says : We
iiave the pleasure of announcing that the funds
for the semi-annual payment of 2 per cent, in
terest on the public debt of Indiana -are provi
ded, and that Mr. Bright will iriake the pay
ment on Monday, (3d inst.) at the office of

CCjF" The Ciucinhatti Chronicle says the
question was recently started in one. of the
Dourts (of that State, we presume,) whether
marriage contracts entered into on Sunday
were valid. The Judge and Counsel all agreed
however, that they would be valid, as coming
under the- head of "works of uecassity or char

Congressional. The telegraph announces
that no business was transacted in Congress on
Saturday. On that day the Senate was en
gaged in the confirmation of sundry appoint
ments. Mr. C. Huffnagle, of Pennsylvania,
was confirmed as Consul to Calcutta, vice Ha-
gins, recalled. Hugh Keenan, of Pennsylva
nia, as Consul to the port of Dublin, vice Wil
son, recalled. W. J. Staples, of Kew York, as
Consul to Havre, vice Beasely, deceased.
There was great anxiety at Washington to
hear Keverdy Johnson on the War? He was
to deliver his speech on Monday.
. A New Agext to Prevent Paix Dr. Simp
son, an English Physician, has discovered a
a new agent to prevent pain, which is consid
ered superior to ether. It is called Chloroform,
and its action is much more rapid and complete
than ether, usually requiring only about twen
ty inspirations. Its perfume is most agreeble,
and the odor is not attached to the clothes. It
can be applied upon a cloth or sponge. ;
The Taylok Resolution Passed bt both
Hocses is Tennessee. The resolution recom
mending Gen. Taylor for the Presidency was
finally passed on Wednesday, by a vote of 42
yeas to 30 nays. We republish it as follows:
Resolved ly the General Assembly of the
State of Tennessee, That the people of Tennes
see by their Representatives, do hereby recoru
mend to their fellow-citizens of the Union,
GENERAL ZACHARY TAYLOR, as a can
didate for the Presidency at the next election,
in whose ability, impartiality, patriotism and
devotion to the constitution, confidence can
be safely reposed by the people."
CCJThe Washington correspondent of the
N. Y. Mirror says: "I have just had an inter
view with a wafrm friend of Mr. Clay, who
yesterday received a letter from the great "Har
ry of the West," that eminent statesman de
clares that he will not run for the Presidency
in opposition to Gen. Taylor: This fact may
be relied en, and the announcement is received
here by the Whig party proper, with the ut
most satisfaction. Mr. Clay is expected to ar
rive ar the Capital in a few days, and it is gen
erally believed that he will publish a card in ac
cordance with the above statement."
COThe "Home Journal," by Morris & Wil
lis, comes to us this week highly enriched, and
containing the commencement of a new Amer
ican Novel, of fresh and piquant interest, from
a distinguished and popular pen. Thj Home
Journal is one of the best family. papers pub
lished and should have a general circulation.
; Klr"It is stated that quite a respectable num
ber or democratic papers in New Yoik and
Pennsylvania have hoisted the nameof Mahtin
Van Buren, as the democratic candidate for
President in the campaign of '4S
A Locofoco Failure. We learn from the
Louisville Courier that the Democratic State
Convention which assembled at Frankfort on
Saturday last, adjourned without making nom
iuations for Governor and Lieutenant Govern
or. The attendance was so meagre and so few
counties were represented that it wasdetermin
ed another convention should meet on the 15th
ofMarch.
' djT"The first direct appeal for deficiency,
in the Mexican War, is made in the following
correspondence submitted to the House of Rep
resentatives by the Secretary of War, on the
22ud ult. No doubt large, very large claims
will be made beside this to eke out the expsn
scs to 1st of July next, to which the estimates
and appropriations are previously made. This
deficiency at six mouths before the expiration
of the fiscal year for which appropriations were
made, and this too for 81,000,000 to pay ar
rearages in one only of the departments, Com
missary of Subsistence, is certainly alarming.
War Department.
Washington, December 17, 1S47.
Sir: I have the honor to lay before you a let
ter from the commissary general, showing the
pressing necessity of an early appropriation for
the deficiency in the commissary department. It
is exceedingly important to the public service
that immediate provision should be made to
meet the deficiencies not only in that depart
partment, but also those in the other branches
of the War Department, for which estimates
have been made and submitted to Congress.
Any delay in this respect will be highly detri
mental to the public interest. .
Very respectfullv, your obedient servant,
W. L. MARCY, Secretary of War.
Hon. S. F. Vinton, Chairman Com. of
Ways and Means, House of Heps.
OrncE or Commissary Gen.of Subsistence.
. Washington, Dec. 17, 1847. .
Sir : I have the honor to report that the ap
propriations applicable to '-army subsistence"
are nearly exhausted.
The whole sum now remaining to the credit
of such appropriations does not exceed sixty
thousand dollars; and that sum is absolutely
necessary to meet the demands of the recruit
ing service.
Recent information from the principal com
missaries of subsistence in -Mexico, makes it
" necessary for me to respectfully ask that the
early attention of Congress, may be called to
my "estimate" of the 9th of November, in
which the deficiency in the former appropria
tions is stated, as drafts to the amount of five
hundred thousand dollars may be daily expect
ed to reach the United States, and, as above
shown, this department has no means of pay
ing them.
. Most respectfull.y your obedient servant,
GEO. GIBSON, C. G. S.
Hon, W. L. Makcy, Secretary of War.

. Telegravhic WeDdisg. A -gentleman of
Cincinnati and a lady of Philadelphia, were
married, in the latter city, on Thursday night
of last week, and the fact being communicat-.
ed by telegraph, the wedding feast was held
simultaneously in Cincinnati and Philadelphia.
The "joy greeting" and the response were tel
egraphed, the Cincinnati Commercial says; and,
therefore,. though strange as it may seem, this
wedding celebration had participants in per
sons seperated by nearly a thousand miles !

FREAKS OF A MEXICAN BULL. In an
interesting letter to the Philadelphia North
American, dated Puebla, 5th August, we find
thefollowinghumorous accountof an inpromp
tu "bull-fight:" J
About a week since Generals Scott, Twiggs
and Shields, with an escort of dragoons, and
the 2d and 7th infantry, made an excursion to
the site of the ancient Aztec cit, and I joined
it. About two miles from Puebla a laughable
incident occurred, though it well nigh ended
in a tragedy. The infantry were ascending an
easy slope, when two Mexicans came along
with a powerful bull, which one of them held
by a lasso over the horns, while the other urg
ed him along with a goad. The animal be
came restive as the soldiers passed, and finally
breaking away from those who held him, charg
ed the left flank, carrying a soldier through the
ranks on his horns, and landing him in the mud
on the opposite side of the road. The two
men finally got hold of -the lasso again, and
were getting him along very well, when four
of us civilians came along on horses. Then he
began to plunge and paw the ground, and one
of the Mexicans who got in front of the beast
to beat him still, was tossed clear over the bull's
back.- '
The infuriated creature then pitched into the
other, and throwing him in about two feet of
mud and water, gored and ducked him tor sev
eral seconds. All the horsemen rode up and
succeeded in driving the animal from his prey,
when he turned and put after us, more infuria
ted than ever. As we had no arms, and did
not choose to have our horses ruined, there was
some pretty "tall walking" for a short distance.
The animal Tan down the column till near the
head of the 7th Regiment, and then charged
again, making a pretty vide breacn m trie
ranks. After satisfying himself that the 7th
was "no where" when he was about, he made
a rush on the 2d. The bovs had time to fix
their bayonets, however, and met our friend
so cooly. that after receiving five or six bayo
net wounds he hauled off and gave up the bat
tle. In a few moments 1 saw him lassoed by a
horseman and pulled along towards the city,
bleeding profusely, and looking quiticrest-lal-
leu. tie had evidently been deceived in his
first charge, and seeing no bayonets, probably
did not reckon on'finding any . on his second
plurge. But he can (if the butchers have not
killed him, which I strongly suspect,) console
himself with the fact that he made more con-
sterna lion among two regiments of the U. S.
Infantry than a thousand two-legged Mexicans
could have done.
The St. Louis Republican contains the ad
vices from Santa Fe. which reached us by tel
egrapn a lew uay6 since. We give a lew ex
tracts from the Republican:
Santa Fe, Nov. 7, 1S17.
There is at present considerable trouble and
excitement about the acts of Col. Newby. I
find that the colonel has been trying to estab
lish something like order and military discip
line among the troops at this post, and has not
been supported by bis officers. The American
citizens held a meeting lately (in which there
wasanumberol otiicers) condemning the course
of Colonel Newby in regard to suppressing the
sale ot liquor, lhe colonel had ordered out
three companies of infantry to quell anything
like riot or disorder, which might occur after
the meeting had adjourned; but as every thing
remained quiet, the troops were ordered to their
quarters. JNow the citizens hold that the col
onel is abusing his power, and that by calling
out troops he hoped to stop the meeting, which
was not the case, as J have been assmred by the
colonel, that it was done to keep order in the
town, knowing as he did the excitability of the
citizens of Santa Fe.
The majority of the Americans living here
are men of the worst character, who, finding
that they could stay no longer in the States,
have come out here for the purpose of swind
ling and stealing the hard wages of the private
soldier. "
Every grog shop has a gambling hall attach
ed to it,in which there are nightly scenes of riot
and contusion disgraceful to any military post
I am pained to add that at some of the tables
may be found men wearing officer's uniforms,
dealing monte and faro to privates of their own
companies.
When Col. Newby arrived here, he. found
that if there was not some measures taken to
stop the sale of liquor there could be no dis
cipline among the troops, He immediately
issued an order that no spirits should be sold
to anv soldier witnout the written permit of
the officer commanding the company to which
such soldier belonged. The order was so far
disregarded by some of the officrs that they gave
permission to trie keepers ol grog-sliops to sell
their men what liquor they wanted, lhe citi
zens, knowing this, raised the cry of oppres
sion against the colonel with but little effect,
however, for since I returned there have been
two grog shops closed, by order of the colonel,
for selling without orders.
Capt. G. is now under arrest on ten charges,
any one of which, if proved, will cashier him.
He was brought before the Alcade yesterday
on charge of stealing a gun from Dr. Jackson,
ot bt. Louis. It was proved that he did steal
the gun at Fort Leavenworth but as he was a
captain, the sentence was that he. should give
up the stolen property; had he been a private,
he would have worn a ball and a chain.
There was a small mutiny in Capt. Geise's
company yesterday, which was quelled by the
appearance of two of the Illinois companies.
By the way, speaking of the Sucker regiment,
there is nothing like discipline among them;
every man does as thinks fit, and their officers
do not try to restrain them. I was returning
from the paymaster's last night, and finding no
sentinel at the door l went back ana reported
the circumstance to the maior, who came out
and commenced a search for the missing sol
dier; he was at last found fast asleep in Major
Spalding s carriage. The fact was immediate
ly reported to the officer of the guard, (who
was also a Sucker.) his reply was that "the
poor fellow teas aleepv'.'
There is considerable sickness among the
troops now at this post. The principal dis
ease is the lulluenza.

lines in "Hamlet,"
"Imperial Ceasar dead, and turned to clay,

occurs in a orkshire paper: Millions of bush
els of human bones have been transported from
the continent to Hull for agricultural purposes.
These, which were collected on the plains of
Leipsic, Austerlitz, and Waterloo, were the
bones of the bold, the brave, and the chivalrous
who fell fighting their country's battle. With
them were mixed the bones of the horses, and
both were ground to dust, sent to Doncaster,
and sold lor manure.
The Mayor in Ldsdos. The Lord Mayor
of London has a salary of 890,000 a year. He
has also a mansion or palace, provided by the
city corporation, which is furnished with great
splendor; the banquet ball rooms and the Egyp
tian hall are magnificent apartments. There is
a spacious and elaborately carved state bed.
There are twenty-four footmen in sumptuous
liveries allowed the Mayor, besides a sword
bearer, who rides with him in his state car
riage, a chaplain, a tost, two marshals, dressed
in sumptuous uniform, and twenty marshals,
men in blue, red and gold. The mayor during
his year of office is always dressed in court
suit and wears a scarlet mantle trimmed with
sable fur, a large gold chain and diamond badge
pending from it round bis neck. His wife is
called the lady mayoress, and should she become
a mother during the time of her husband's may
orality. she receives a silver cradle as a present
from the corporation.
The carriage of the mayor is generally most
beautifully adorned with painting and gilding,
and the liveries of the servants are generally
gaudy in the extreme, being one mass of gold
and silver lace. The state coach is an im
mense vehicle of carved work, richly gilded,
and having paintings representing the triumphs
of commerce and civilization over barbarism.
These paintings are mostly bv the celebrated
Hogarth, The "Lord Mayor's Day," the ninth
of November, the day of his inauguration into
office, is one of great splendor, the state coach
es with six horses, accompanied with the
footman in state livery, the whole of the
guilds or city companies in their mantles of
ceremony, large banners of silk, with the arms
ot tne companies and a mantler ot knights in
full amor, as in the days of the tournament.
This georgeous procession returns by water.
The boats are all carving, the rowers in rich
dresses, twenty to each boat, and the banneis
of all sorts streaming from them. The Sheriffs
of London, two in number, receive no salaries
they have very splendid carriages and livieries
during their term of oihee, and wear in the
courts purple silk gowns, with fur trimming
ana gold cnains. Boston Jxamoler.
Napoleon was a great friend of peace, and to
DringaDout a universal peace m Europe he em
ployed thf most energetic means. He eschew
ed negotiation as unworthy a hero, and deter
mined to conquer it! He devoted a large por
tion of his life to this object, and expended, in
in his vigorous attempts to "conquer a peace,"
many millions of treasure and millions of lives.
He was unsuccessfull in his efforts, and, to his
great astonishment, peace to Europe was se
cured only by his own captivity!
Mr. PoLKseems anxious to follow the exam
ple ofNapoleon in restoring peace to this conti
nent. He is prodigal of the lives and fortunes
ot the people, yet there is no promise that his
offorts will be attended with success. "Give
more money, and more men," he exclaims,
"and I will give you peace; I will conquer
peace." Boston Journal.

The Last Case of Somnambulism. Our city
waa, for abqut an hour last evening, an amusing
scene of uproar and confusion. About three
o'clock the bells struck up an alarm for fire,
and as usual on such occasions, a large por
tion of the population were soon astir. The
engines trundled along the streets the pave
ments rung with the rapid tramp of passers
by windows flew up and night caps popped
out with enquiring gaze persons half clad
were seen making astronomical observaations
through the scuttles of houses; but not a ray of
lignt illuminated the blue vault to show where
the dread destroyer had fastened his fangs.
Still the bells rung away for dear life some in
tones heavv and others in a shrill treble
that would have shamed a young frogn spring
time. .
Bntjnotwithstanding the confusion of sounds
not a speck of smoke appeared. The watch
men stood on the corners, as wise as the rest,
"with not a smell of fire upon theirgarments:"
and returned a most decided "1 don't know,"
to the many inquiries addressed them. They
could throw no light upon the subject. Finally
lt.entered the brain ol some genius to make
such an unmerciful clatter, and upon proceed
ing to one ot the principle churches he found
the sexton half dressed, tussing awav at the
alarm ropeand fastaslee'p! The responsibilities
of bell ringing had weighed so heavily on his
mind that he had risen from his sleep and open

forth at so unreasonable an hour to partici
