Par ordre de lacour ce 7 Jan. 1860. \n\n jtitoOicc from ns, ho was instructed to exercise
his own discretion in presenting himself to the
then existing Government, if in his judgment
sufficiently stable; or, if not, to await further
events. Since that period Rome has under
gone another revolution, and he abides the es
tablishment of a Government sufficiently per
manent to justify him in opening diplomatic in
tercourse with it.
With the Republic of Mexico it is our true
policy to cultivate the most friendly relations
Since liie ratification of the treaty of Guada
loupe Hidalgo, nothing has occurred of a seri
ous character to, disturb them. A faithful ob
servance oßjhe fceaty, and h sincere respect for
her rights, cannot fail to secure the lasting con
fidence and friendship of that Republic. The
inessage of my predecessor to the House of Re
presentatives," of the 8th of February last, com
municating, in compliance with a resolution of
that body, a copy pf a paper called a Protocol,
signed at Qjioretaro ou the 30th of May, 1848,
by the Commissioners of the United States and
tne Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Mexican
Government, having been a subject of corres
pondence between the Department of State and
the Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Pleni
potentiary of that Republic accredited to this
Government, a transcript of that correspon
ence is herewith submitted.
The Commissioner on the part of the United
States for marking the boundary between the
two Republiß3, though delayed in reaching San
Diego by unforseen obstacles, arrived at that
place within a short period of the time required
by the treaty, and was there joined by the
Commissioners on the part of Mexico. They
entered upon their duties; and, at the date of
the latest intelligence from that quarter, some
progress had been jnade in the survey. The
expenses incident to the organization of the
commission, and to its conveyance to the point
where its operations were to begin, have so re
duced the fund appropriated by Congress, that
a further sum, to cover the charges which must
be incurred during the present fiscal year, will
be necessary. The great length of frontier
along which the boundary extends, the nature
of the adjacent territory, and the difficulty of
obtaining supplies, except at or near the ex
tremes oftheline, render it also indispensable
that liberal provision should be made for the
charges during the fiscal year ending on the
30th June, 1851,1 accordingly recommend this
subject to your attetion.
In the adjustment of claims of American citi
zens on Mexico, provided by the late treaty, the
employment of counsel, on the part of the Go
vernment, may become important for the pur
pose of assisting the commissioners in protect
ing the interests of the United States. I re
commend this subject to the early ajid favor
able consideration of Congress.
Complaints have been made in regard to the
inefficiency of the means provided by the Gov
ernment of New Grenada for transmitting the
United Stetes mail across the Isthmus of Pana
ma, pursuant to our Postal convention wit h tfyat
Republic, of the 6th March, 1844. Our Charge
4*Affaires at Bogota has been directed to make
such representations to the Government of New
Grenada as will, it is hoped, lead to a prompt
removal of this cause of complaint.
The sanguinary civjl war with whioh the Re
public of Venezuela has for some time past been
ravaged, has been brought to a close. In its
progress, the rights of some of our citizens, resi
dent or trading thepe, have been violated. The
restoration of order will afford to (fee Venezue
lan government an opportunity to examine and
redressa these grievances, and others of long
standing, which our representatives at Caraccas
have hitherto uneffectually urged upon the at
tentionjof that government.
The extension of the coast of the United
States on the Pacific, and the unexampled ra.
pidity with which the people of California espe
cially are increasing in numbers, have imparted
new consequence to our relations with tiie other
countries whose territories border upon that
ocean. It is probable that the intercourse be
tween those countries, and our possessions in
that quarter, particularly with t|e Republic of
Chili, will become extensive and mutually ad
vantageous in proportion as California and Ore
gon shall increase in population and wealth.—
It is desirable, therefore, that this Government
should do everything in its power to foster and
strengthen its relations with those states, and
that tjje spirit of amity between us should be
mutual and cordial.
I recommend the observance of the same
course towards all the other American States.
The United States stands as the great Ameri
can Povfer, to which, as their natural ally and
friend they will always be disposed to look first
for mediation and assistance in the event of any
collision between them and any European na
tion. As sucht we may often kindly mediate
in their belialf without entangling ourselves in
foreign wars or unnecessary controversies.—
Whenever the faith of our treaties with any of
them shall require our interference, we must
necessarily interpose.
A convention has been negotiated with Bra
zil, providing for the satisfaction of American
claims on that Government, and it will be sub
mitted to the Senate. Since the last session of
Congress, we have received an Envoy Extraor
dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary from that
Empire, and our relations with it are founded
on {he most amicable understanding.
Yonr attention is earnestly invited to an
amendment of our existing laws relating to the
African slave trade, with a view to the effectual
suppression of that barbarous traffic. It is not
to be denied that this trade is still, in part, car
ried on by means of vessels built in the United
State«, and owned or navigated by some of our
citizens. The correspondence between the De.
pertinent of state and the Minister and Con
sul of the United States at Rio de Janeiro, which
has from time to time been laid before Congress,
represents that it is a customary device to evade
the penalty of our laws by means of sea-letters.
Vessels sold in Brazil, when provided with such
letter* by the Consul, instead ofretÇflûng to the
United States for a new register, ^proceed at
onee to the poast of Africa, for the purpose of
obtaining cargoes of slaves. Much additional

Temperance Lectures.
Mr. Philip S. White , one of the most dis
tinguished members of the Order of the Sons
of Temperance, and a gentlemen of rare orato
rical powers, has arrived in Plaquetnine, and
will address the people of this vicinity THIS
AFTERNOON at 3 o'clock in the Methodist
Church, and THIS EVENING at 7 o'clock in
the Presbyterian Church.
The Delta, speaking of Mr. White's Lectures
says—
"He indulges much in anecdote; with it he
illustrates the graver positions he assumes.and
then he varies his discourse with some bright
apostrophe, as impetuous as the onward rush
of a tornado, and as brilliant as the stream
the ; lectrie flash."
of
Music.—We would refer our readers to the
advertisement of Mr. R. Mahpiierson Allison,
who luis come amongst us for the purpose of
giving lessons in music. We trust that a gen
erous support will be extended him.
The River . —The river is still rising at this
point—and it is our duty to call upon all own
ing lands on the river or bayou, to look well to
their levees. The rise is much higher at - this
season than it was last year, and much greater
danger of overflow is consequently apprehend
ed. Below, two fearful crevasses have already
occurred.
Nicholls Division No. 49, S. of T.—This

Our City Advertisers.
Our readers will perceive that we have an ad
dition of new advertisements from the city in
this week's paper. While we tender to our
New Orleans friends our sincere thanks for
past favors so liberally extended us, we would
at the same time respectfully state to ourfriends
here, that besides the inducements held out by
those advertisers, they ought to make it an im
perative principle, that all trading they do in
the city, the prefèrenpc should be given to
those houses which patronize their Parish pa
pers. Messrs. Alfred Munrob & Co., whose
advertisement stands most conspicuous, has
the great clothing establishment of New Or
leans; but the immense business which this
firm does, and their wide-spread reputation, are
too well establish«! to require an eulogistic
paragraph from us—but one thing we are bound
to say, from the first, this firm has always ex
tensively advertised, and the people, knowing
them by this means, found true what their ad
vertisements state, therefore dealt with them,
and enabled them to reach their present apex
of prosperity. But in a city like New Orleans,
with such a back country to support it, one clo
thing store is not sufficient, unless it was the
size of a ten-acre field and had a thousand
clerks—therefore, onr readers will please no
tice the modest advertisement, in the same bu
siness, of Thompson- &, Nixqk , who have hosts
of friends in the city, and whose establishment
is the quintescence of elegance and taste. A
little further down on the same side of Camp,
is the Music Store of Wm . T. Mayo , the oldest
house of this description in the city, and whose
wide-spread celebrity is full guarantee of the
superiority of his instruments, and the accom
modation afforded purchasers. Nearly opposite,
is the Watch and Jewelry Establishment of
Youkg &■ Co.—formerly Nelson A. Young,
who, in the course of a few years, through in
dustry, capacity and attention to business, has
gained for himself and his establishment, a de
servedly high reputation. Higher up is the first
Dry Goods Establishment ever opened on Camp
street, we refer to the firm of Seymour & Co.
who exhibit a splendid stock " of goods, and
judging from the rush already made there, we
prophecy for their bouse a prosperous career.—
Leaving Camp and going to Magazine, near
Canal, will be seen the Wholesale Shoe Store of
Frost &. Co., an old house, and long known to
country merchants for good bargains and ac
commodating terms. Farther over towards
the river, on Tchoupitoulas street, is the old
stand of MabtinIJ- Devereux , now renova
ted into a fo.ur story with marble pillars, whose
business is too.' varied for repetition here ; but
one thing wé e^n say to purchase*, that in bis.
establishment will be found everything in the
way of stoves and grates, and an old gentle,
man to deal with, whose politeness and accom
modating manner will prevent any one from go
ing away displeased.
CT The river, says the Point Coupee Echo
of tie 5th, continues to rise with rapidity. It
is now nearly even with the banks. We look
forward to similar and worse disasters by the
th|patetiing high waters,of this year than were
experienced last Two crevasses of a destruc
tivecharacter have already occurred in the pariah
of St. John the Baptist, and on our way up from
the ory on Monday last, we observed several

The Union.
Sixty years have elapsed since the Declara
tion of Independence was first proclaimed on
this continent, and the Union of thirteen free
States was cemcnted, by the most holy and so
lemn compact, for mutual protection, wealth and
aggrandizement. By a concord of sentiments
and interests, that knew no sectional feelings,
those thirteen separate Powers, acting as one
body and one soul, commenced their existence
in the list of nations under the name of the
"United States"— and now, at a period of its
existence less than that allotted to man, we
look at the growth, prosperity and magnificence
of this Union, with a pride and a delight known
only to those who have been reared under its
sublime institutions. The union that embrac
ed thirteen governments, have grown to more
than double that number, and with a vast ter
ritory comprised between two oceans, yet unin
habited, greater than that already populated,
what a vast empire is before us !—three bloody
and unequal wars,through which our arms have
gone victorious, is an evidence of the might
and policy of such a union— and the intelli
gence and enterprise that pervade all classes.
are proofs of the wisdom of a government
formed by links of separate dependencies, to
maintain by united strength and intelligence
the Declaration of those rights which were
made on the 4th of July, 1776. This union
and those rights emanated through the repre
sentatives of the people in Congress assem
bled, great and good men, who have gone down
to their graves with the blessings of mankind.
The people of the colonies then began to in
hale the air of a new existence under their in
dependent State and National Governments,
and began, too. feel, as they had a natural
right to feel, that the Government now belong
ed to them, not they to the Government.
These reflections, which are not expressed as
clearly as we would wish, are produced by rea
son of the assertion that has lately been made
by several Washington letter-writers, that in
the event of the passage of the Wilmot. Provi
so, certain Senators had declared their inten
tion of retiring from their seats in Congress,
and moreover, that the States which they rep
resented would likewise secede from thp Union
The passage of this Proviso, heinous as it is to
the South, or the passage of any other act, will
not warrant thjs language. If the South i§
overpowered by traitors and pretended philan
thropists, it is the duty of the South to have a
nobler aim than to prove the greater traitor by
withdrawing its connexion from the Union.—
Senators may disgrace themselves if they see
proper, by vacating their seats, and leaving the
interests of the South entirely in the hands of
fanatics, but that the people of any Southern
State will join with them in this move, is more
than we believe. Representatives in Congress
are expected to enact laws for the mutual inter
ests of the whole Union. When they fail in
uniting or agreeing upon any great question
touching the vital interests of this Union, or
any great section of the Union, their services,
or their legislative capacities, are at an end, and
the people in convention must then determine
what is proper to be done. Representatives
must recollect that they are going beyond their
sphere wjien they talk of a dis'solution of this
Union—a Representative body formed it, but
it is not in the power af a Representative body to
dissolve it ! No, this Union is in the hands of
the People, and we may add, the Press ; and in
times like these it is necessary that both should
speak out boldly and fearlessly, and show to
ambitious and aspiring demagogues, that our
glorious Union does not rest in their hands.
Hard Work and Good GRix .-.If there is
any man in this State that works hard, and
shows the true grit, it is the editor of the South
ern (Plaquemijne) Sentinel. He gets out, week
ly, a very respectable and excellent paper, con
taining a good quantity of sound editorial mat
ter he and a small boy do all the labor of the
office, including a great deal of job* work—he
corrects proof, makes up his newspaper mail,
keeps his accounts, and collects s 11 of them
that he can collect—a shame that such a man
can't collect all!—reads his exchanges, &c., to
keep up with the times, stands up for his village,
and his parish, and we may add his country, like
a true hearted man, and we are sure that he is a
good husband, and the right sort of a man gen
erally. If the public will not stand by such a
man, and patronize him, and pay him his dues,
they neglect to do what both their duty and
their interest demand of them.— Planters' Ban
ner.
Well, if the above paragraph isn't enough to
make us feel an increased energy and spirit of
at least fifty per cent, we have no blood in our
veins, that's all. If the editor of the Banner
will just drop us a line when he passes this
way again, we will guarantee to furnish him
something rarer than "chicken fixens," and for
once at least make him acknowledge that he
was not "fleeced" in Plaquetnine. But, sober
ly, we are not so lost to vanity as not to be

Correspondence of the N. O. Com. Bulletin.
Washington , Dec. 26. 1849.
Both Houses of Congress adjourned from
Monday evening over to Wednesday next, in
order to allow the members to participate in
the observance of Christmas here, or in some
of the neighboring States.
To-morrow tome attempt at business will be
made. Mr. Cass has offered a resolution, in
the Senate,«requiring the Committee on Foreign
Affairs to inquire into the expediency of sus
pending our diplomatic relations with Austria,
on account of Austria's inhumaiftonductagainst
the noble Magyars of Hungary. It will offer
a field for declamation, and no doubt the Com
mittee will report in favor of the measure.
Sir. Bradbury, of Maine, has offered a resolu
tion, culling upon the President for the charges
on file against the Loeofocos who have been
turned out of office, and the reasons for their
removal. If it passes, the President may treat
the call as President Jackson did a similar one
he told his interrogators in the matter, that
he was responsible for the removals which have
been made, and as for the reasons which im
pelled the removals, they were to his mind satis
factory.
In the IIouso, to-morrow, attempts will be
made, doubtless,to electa Clerk, a Sergeant
at-Arms, etc. In the end, it is quite possible
the plurality system will have to bo again re
sorted to, in order to get the officers in ques
tion elected.
The course of Messrs. Toombs & Co., is
severely animadverted upon by almost every
Whig one meets here, whether in Congress or
not, or whether from the North or South. Mes
srs. Toombs and Stephens, being strong in their
respective districts, may weather the storm;
but as for Messrs. Owen, Cabell and Morton,
if they have not signed and sealed their own
political death-warrants—all three of them—
then will I never again undertake to prophecy^
self-evident thing.
Mr. Stephens still has a strong hold upon the
hearts of all Whigs. They hate to give him up.
They believe that he has suffered his personal
friendship for Mr. Toombs to lead him tempora
rily astray. But for Mr. Toombs there is no
whig sympathy to be found. It is much the same
in regard to Mr. E. Cayrington Cabtll.
league, Thomas Butler King, from being made
Those two gentlemen were first and foremost
to dictate to tho Natten?! Çonvention at Phila
delphia, that if Genoral Taylor did not receive
the nomination for President, neither they nor
their Whig constituents would be governed by
the action of the Convention, but would run a
candidate against its nominee. General Taylor,
happily, was nominated and elected. Then Mr.
Toombs, as is openly alledged here, cast his
thoughts upon the high office of Secretary of
War, but, coming to Congress and finding no
backers here, he resolved to prevent his col
Secretary of the Navy, by pressing George W.
Crawford for the head of the Department.—
This scheme was successful. Next, Messrs.
Toombs & Co., did not wish to see Mr. Vinton
of Ohio, at the head of the Treasury Depart
ment, and hence they pressed Mr. Ewing, of
the same State, so hard upon the President, for
the office of Postmaster General, that Gen. Tay
lor got his dander up and sent a friend at once
to Mr. Ewing, to inform him that he had been
selected for that station. Mr-Toombs did not
wish Mr. Ewing appointed in the Cabinet; he
only used his name as a check-mate te keep
our Mr. Vinton. As Mr. Abbott Lawrence
would not accept the office of Secretary of the
Navy, a portion of the Cabinet, as at first de
cided upon, had subsequently to be remoddled.
Mr. Toombs attempted to dictate, and proba
bly did dictate much on the occasion.
After the Cabinet was formed Messrs.
Toombs & Co. were the first to dictate that no
removals should «be made in the Departments
here upon political grounds. They went home,
and altera few weeks had rolled by there came
up letters here from Georgia Whigs, saying
they had changed their minds, and that they
had Whig'friends there who must have offices
here and Locofocos must be removed to give
them places!
Next, Mn Toombs comes here and pnder
takes to dictate to the Whig cancus that it shall
adopt a resolution foreign to the object for
which it had assembled, respecting the subject
of slavery. Failing in this attempt he with
drew from the meeting, carrying five members
with him.
Next, he dictated to the House that Mr. Win
throp should not be re-elected Speaker—that a
Locofoco should succeed first. In this he suc
ceeded.
Mr. Toombs' last performance, in the matter
of dictation, took place in the House on Sat
urday last just before the Speaker was elected.
He attempted to address the House in spite
of the resolution which had passed, that there
should be no debate. He was called to order
by fifty memhers, again and again. But he
persisted in going on. He screeched and scream
ed, and pounded his desk at a vehement rate—
abusing the members for adopting such a re
solution—said it was tyrannical and outrageous^
unconstitutional, and null and void. He told
the Clerk that he was an 'intruder" and "inter
loper^ for going on with his call of the roll
of the House, while he (Mr. Toombs) was
speaking. He finally finished, amid the roar of
noise, and sat down, Very muâi out of breath.

In Billiou» complaints these Pills exe» eise a complete mas
tery. Hence Fever ami A?«» is speedily cured by the use or
them. In the Western and Southern States, where this dis
ease mostly prevails, these Pills go like an avalanche. W hue
they are cheaper than the fever and ague remedies in gen
eral, Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills havebcoo pronounced
superior to all of them. Indeed, it would appe that il
there is one compL int over which these Pills havomere
power than another, it is Fever and Ague. For destroying
and expelling Worms.no Vcrmifiige is superior te these
Pills. Although we have not taken pains to make tins t.xt
public, the merit of the medicine itself has acquired lor it
an extensive reputation and sale for the removal of \\ orms.
Administered to adults or children, the effect of the Pills is
equally radical am! t'ecioive. All who suffer *rom worms
should, by all means use Wright's Indian Vegetable Pil s.
In fact, no one can go amis-, in the use of this medicine.—
