Bit tin, March id.—W£: hear that a definite • In ration ha'j tieon received front the Rustian urt respecting the u*w drgsnuaiUiu to be giv . to the kingdom cf Foland. 1 he country, a a already been stated, will bo divided int< hree provinces, each of which will be represent ed bj separate state*. Tbe administration has been divided into three ministerial departments, of which only that of justice will be filled by a Palj. • ' Wcrsaus March 6.—It is Just known here that tbe creator part of the Russian troops will leave tho kingdom. The first division will set out on the 1st of fipril, mid -by tbe 1st of May all will have left Poland, except a small corps. As these troops will not remain upon (he ‘frontier, but are to be distributed in the interior of Russia, this measure is equivalent to a reduction of the Russian army. Tho alarming reports of tbe vast projects of Russia to assume a dictatorial autho rity in Europe appear now to be mere fables. Unsiia, on tho contrary, desires peace, of the benefits of whic/s it has so much uee.l after Mich •expensive wun.—Franl-fuit jiaper, March Is. From the ({uotidUmc. GTy Hit exetikne • French Ambassador ut Rome. fresh reports from tho delegate at Ancona lay the undersigned Cardinal Secret try oT Stale un der tbe disagreeable necessity of addressing fresh complaints to your excellency, lu spite of the proclamations of General Cornieren, and his as surances that-he docs not intend to meddle with -the pontifical igovernment. but, on the contrary, wishes to protect the authorities, respect the laws, and repress the factious, rite adjutant major, Sic. dales, has ordered that two persons confined for political crimes should be provisionally liberated. At the instance of I'reuch officers, an air allego rically alluding to liberty was introduced in an o- pert, which produced the most lively enthusi asm among the factions, ami excited seditious cries acaiust the government of his Holiness, cries twitch were heard "with impunity in tin- streets. Printed and writtcu placards, exciting the people to.revolt, are public-ally posted on the walls. Persons banished by the Pontifical Gov ernment, «nd excluded from last year's amnesty, at* freely admitted iutu the society of those ve ry officers who are said to be sent for the pur- pose of maintaining the Pontifical authority. Comparing these facts with tho assurances given by your excellency in your note of tbe'SStb of February, which promised that General Cor- ' '-biores, possessed, ofjhe views of tho French Gov ernment, was bringing a fresh support to the temporal authority or the lloly Father, and to-tho independence and' integrity of his states, it only -remains with the undersigned to request.your Excellency to figure to yourself the sail impres sions which tho recent report from the delegate of Ancona have produced in the mind of tho Ho ly Father; and ho requests you at the same time •to consider how, just oml positive were the rea- ■ soilings which the uuderxigued adduced in his former notes, viz. that the occupation of Ancona by the Freuch troops, fur from contributing to -the re-establishment of tranquility, had given oc casion to the renewal of past disorders, hi spite •of all the declarations made ngaiust the assertion. The undersigned omits observing upon other facts, which, being directly contrary to the honor of tho French troops, he doubts not will be re? paired at once. Among others, permission was not given to the Pontifical troops, who retired from Ancona by their sovereign's order, to carry •off their own effects which thoy had in the bar racks. They were not allowed to take their car touches, nor to have them sent to the auxiliary troop, nor were they permitted ( to take die drn goon horses. We must therefore protest in the name of tho Holy Father against all these nets, derogatory to the Pontifical sovereignty, in order that the rights of . His Holiness may be guaran- ' teed actually find for the future. .Cardinal BERNETTE. -■ Latest from Buenos Ayres.—Wo aro indebted (sap the Now York Journal of Commerce of the 23d ult.) to ^passenger on hoard tho brig Mon tevideo, for Bnenos Ayres papers to February 21st iuclusive. The Gnceta Mercantil • of the latest date contains the following: The natural consequences of the rash net of the commandant of the United States’corvette Lexington at the Falkland Islands begin to deve lop# themselves. The government, yielding to the demands of public sentiment in regard to the United States' consul, G. \V. Slocunl, has been pleased to withdraw from him his txequelur. at the same time authorising him to appoint a substitute until tho two governments can coma to an understanding on tho affair in question. The decree directing the suspension of Mr.' Slo cum, was yesterday made known officially to the Register of the Port, who, in order lo avoid the embarrassments which might result in the clcar- i ing of Amcricnn vessels, addressed a note to Mr. 81ocum, asking him (o return such papers of A- mcrican vessels as were in bis possession, until bis substitute’should be appointed and recognized.

Mr. Houston was then conducted to the bar, at tended by his counsel, and Mr. Stanbery having been sworn, was examinedjn his place. He tes tified as to the facts of tbe atsault, and the cir cumstances immediately preceding it and. con nected with the transaction. Interrogations were then put to him by the counsel for tbe accused.

Yesterday there was a stirriug debate in the Senate, mi tho motion to strike out the appropri ation for nn outfit for a Minister to Frauce, in the room of Mr. Rives, who is expected to return home, on leave of absence, during tho autumn.— The two most animated speakers were Mr. Web ster aud Mr. Hayno, being both ou the same side- in reference to the motion which was pending-— Mr. Unvuu Was provoked by a remark made by General Smith, the Chairman of the Committee on Fiuatiee, titai till the noise against tho last ad ministration was mere clamor, aud that the ad ministration hud gone on well enough. Air. Hayno replied iu some such language as this— “The Senator from Maryland did not attempt to show that the present administration had redeem ed their pledges, hut said tho charge against the last was all clamor, aud that' all tho adihimstra- turns had gone ou well. What a situation (con tinued Sir. Hayno) does this place us in, who did joiu (it tho clamor, who believed the last adminis tration wiih extravagant, who had used the influ ence we possessed to extend this opinion, who had inscribed the charge on our banners, who fought the battle, and who made enemies of those 'in whom we had acted. Aud the geutleman from Alarylaud now tells us that the present ad ministration hits done as well as tbe last/’ Air. New O&leans, April 18. Afmco.—From a gentleman who quitted Vera Cruz the 7th imp we have been obliged -with the following particulars:—'That'General Facia had joined General Calderon wmt a reinforcement of 1,300 men, aid that of the prisoners taken in the KCtion of Tolome, the greater part has solicited to have their services accepted against their former eader. Tho total force ef General Calderon be fore Vera Cruz is estimated es amounting to about 5,000 men; and that the three roads leading from the interior to Vera Cruz were occupied by him. Geueral Santa Anna still kept possession of .the town and fortress,-and had a achr.-and a brig of 10 guns under his command. He frequently di rected hit fire to tho position where the govern ment troops were stationed, but tbo firing was noiretumod. Ho also informs as that a gun-boat., of which mention was made somotiwe since as ha-, via 15 been given by General Santa Anna, in com- • wkud.’te a man of the name - of> Riband, known here for his piratical practices, had attempted to Aw upon the government troops, but was driven off, the said Rihand having lost one ofhis arms'.'— . The opinion of the getulemaa bringing these par ticulars iij that in* all probability, .Vera. Cruz has by this time surrendered, or, If not, that it cannot possibly bold out Icog.

' la the Senate, yesterday, a menage we* recorv- froze the President of the United States, by Mr. Dooehoo, bb secretary, transmitting printed ®f *«eh of the Iudi as treaties lately conclu ded. The Senste, on motion of Mr. Smith, re- wowderadon of the geueral an ntlOB bill, tad several amendments made ii llnyne went ou to say that ho held the President to be responsible for tho pledges he had made when he came into office, that be brought a mi- ofity iuto Congress with him, and that if he could tave influenced bis friends, he could have surely redeemed all his pledges. He stated that if hu had been aware that it was to be a miserable scramble for the loaves and fishes, to which alt tlte professions of tho Jackspu party'wero tp de generate, ho would ntjvcr have engaged iu it. If, to Said, a mentbor oflho party voted ‘against any principle which the adnduistratioh uud been pledg.jd to sustain, it n as over-looked and thought nothing of, so that be voted for the appoiutinent- of Geueral Jackson to office. But let him vote against any appointment, and tbe whole keunel was turned out agaiust you. Tray, Blanch, aud Sweelhotrt were at your heels, and nil the pen sioned press spat its venom upon you. He. de clared that be should hold tho administration to their pledges, and the President to his. Air. For syth', in a tone of some levity, not very well suited to the gravity .-of tho subject, said tno President had given no pledges, and that he was not bound to redeem the pledges made, in his name, by his friends. He intimated that tho overwholuiuing tupularity of Gen. Jackson, which elected him n tbe first instance would easily secure his re- election, and that however ho jnigbt bo assailed for his inconsistencies the people could not be brought to vote against him. Air. Webster utado a most able and emphntic speech, which riveted the httentiou of,the rienate, in which he put it to South Carolina, to Virginia, mid to Pennsylvania, to say how they all could go in favor of a President who had so modified bisopinions os to suit alt tho different feelings, opinious & habits or the North & South. Some poriious ofhis speech wero speci mens of nmsdulino eloquence. The debate is Ijkcly to continue through Alouday, tho 'time to which the Senate adjourned, Governor Miller ha' viug the floor. The House was thronged nil day yesterday, to hear Gov, Houston's trial, which shuts out all the public business of tbe. session. Tlte whole day. wits occupied iu the farther examination of Air.

The question was not taken when the Senate adjourned. The House of Representatives proceeded to the trial of General Houston, fora breach of privilege, and the accused was brought to the bar by tbe Sergeant-at-Arins. The question was again dis cussed at to the putting of a certain interrogatory propounded to Mr. Stanbery ou the preceding day by ttarcounscl for the accused, and a motion was mndolbr tho reconsideration of the vote by which it hud been ordered. The motion, however, was negatived upon a division of yeas and nays. The examination was then proceeded in, but was in terrupted at various times by ditrUssing on tbe nature of the testimony given, and its relevancy to the case under consideration. - Tbe Senate did not sit on' Saturday. Tbo House of Representatives ass. tabled at 11 o'clock, aud tho usual moruiug business was laid aside, in conformity with the vote of tlio preceding day, for the purpose of proceeding with tho trial of Air.

Washimotos, April 24. In the Senate, yesterday, two messages were received from the President of the United States— one, transmitting a report front the Secretary of State, recommending the passage of a law making it penal to counterfeit the foreign coins iu circula tion; aud the other, transmitting a report from the Secretary of the Treasury, in relation to the pub lic lauds, prepared in obedience to tho resolution of the 26t!i Alareh last. The motion of Air. Hen dricks, for the reconsideration of tho vote, on or dering the bill providing for extending the means of vaccination to the Indians to its third reading, was taken up, and the vote was reconsidered. Air. Frelinghuyseo then submitted an amendment, which was adopted after a short debate; and on motion of Air. Grundy, the bill was recommitted, with instructions, to the Committee on Indian Affaire. The. morning’s business having been concluded, the consideration of the appropriation bill was resumed, aitd the debate of Friday was continued by Messrs. Miller, Clayton, Tyler, Clay, Smith, Holmes, King, Bibb, Sprague, ami Forsyth. JJn taking the question, the amend ment made in Committee of the Whole was con curred in, yeas 23, nays 21.

After adopt ing some amendments, and rejecting others, the Senate adjourned. lu tho House of Representatives, a message was received from the President of the United States, transmitting a report of the Secretary of State, suggesting the propriety of passing a law makiug it criminal to counterfeit, within the li mits of the United States, the coins of foreign na tions. On the motion of Air. Ellsworth, it was referred to tho Committce ou the Judiciary. A variety of petitions and memorials were after wards*presented. Air.

Drayton offered a resolu tion providing for the embodyiug into ono act, by the Secretary of Waf, all the various laws on the subject of tho army, which was laid on the table ono day. Resolutions were presented also by Mr. Ditncatr, Air. Slade, and Air, Mardis; and Air. Bullard laid before the House certain resolutions of the legislaturo of Louisiana, on the subject of the'rcnewal of the. bank charter, aud tho con struction of a ship channel from New Orleans to the Gulf of Mexico. Ou the expiration of the hour, the House proceeded to tho trial of General Houston. Tho nccused was conducted to the bar, attended, as before, by the Scrgeunt-at-Arms, and by his counsel, Air. F. S; Key. Tlte testi mony delivered on Saturday liy Colonel Cave Johnson of Tennessee, was read over, and that gemlernnu was further examined by the counsel lor the accused, aud by various racmbaai of the House, as to tho feeliugs manifested, and vfc lan guage used' by General Houston, on tbe tercet of the remarks of Air. Stanbery, and tbe circum stances attending tho delivery ofibe note from kbe accused to'the latter. » At tho request of the counsel for the accused, Mr. Senator Grundy was then .sworn and exam ined. lie stated that Gen. Houston had'been at bis (Mr. G’s.) room, on tbe evening on which the assault took place; and that he was cugaged in a light and pleasant conversation with himself (Mr. G. ,) Mr. Buckner, and Mr. Blair, in the course of which Mr. II. related tome amusing anecdotes, until within a few minutes previous to its occur rence. lie spoke, also, ns to tbo impressiou which prevailed, that Air. Houston at as disabled in the right arm from tlte effects of a wound received in buttle. ' 1 ■ Mr. Senator Buckner was next sworn and ex amined. He stated the circumstances' attending thtF conversation as related by Air. Grundy; and said that, altenvards, os he was standing at the 'door of the boarding house with Mr. Blutr, Gov. H. took' each of them by an arm, and they walk ed up tlio Avenue. They continued their light conversation, and proee'eded its far as the street leading to-tho City Hall, when Air. H. said,in re ply to an invitation of Air. Blair, to return, that he had company at home and could not go. Mr. Blair retired. Be (Air. Buckner) was convers ing with Mr. Houstou, and asking him a question, wbeu Air. Stanbery. appeared; crossing*the street. .Mr. II. did not reply to Air. B.’s question; hut on Air. S. placing his footou the pavement, he was asked by. Air. II. If that was Air. StauberyJ Air. ■$. replied very politely, with a bow, yes, sir; and with that Air. Houston with an oath, called him a rascal, and struck him. Air. Buckner proceeded to detail tlte further circutns'tmiccs attending the •assault. He was further iuterrognted by mem bers of tho House; nfter which, Dr. Ilall was sworn, aud Examined as io tlio haudwriting of the .affidavit of Air.

Several u- lueodmeuts were then adopted, aud the bill as n- utended was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading. Tito Apportionment bill was taken up uud rend u wcoud time* . lu tbe House of Representatives, the whole of the sitting of yesterday was occupied in the fur ther bearing Of the case of tho alleged brolch of privilege by Samuel Houston. 'All tlte witnesses present were examined before the silting 'closed, and ueillier party proposed to iniroJuco any oth er, though it was intimated as possible that some other might be introduced- n heu the i videnee was closed, 'Mr. Stanbery said, if it was tlte plea- »«re of the House on tbis occasion to go into tbe further examination of the contemplated fraud a* charged by him, he wan ready to introduce evi dence which would! iu his opinion, place the truth of the charge beyond doubt. Whereup on Mr. Polk expressed a hope that the House would not further pursue that inquiry in this form, pledging himself, however, if no other mpmber did so, to institute an inquiry by the I louse into the whole mutter, w ith a firm belief that it would result iu the acquittal of all per sons charged as being concerned in an inteuliou to defraud the Government. ’ The further hearing of the case was then post poned to this day at 11 o’clock, w hen the a cens ed-will be heard in liis defence by his counsel, should no Other testimony lie theu introduced. It having been insinuated, iu some of the op position papers,' (says the Southern Patriot) that the President was privy to, or cognizant of, an At tended assault by Gov. Houston on Air. Statibe- ry, the Washington Globe, of the 18th ult. states “that the President has never seen nor had any communication with Gov. Houston, directly or indirectly, since the insult was offered by Mr. Stanbery to him, down to the jiresefit moment.” Wo itnve been Wfortned that all the troops at Jefferson Barracks (consistingof six companies of the 6tb lufantry,) are ordered to Rock Island.— The cause of this movement, we learn,' is to be as follows: It may be recollected that sometime last fall, a party of tlje Sack and Fox Indians meeting with some of the Menonciniees, near Prairie du Chein, attacked them, and put several to death. The Alenonimiees of course sought rc- vengo, but were restrained from going to war, by the (7. S. Agent's assurances, that the United States would interfere, and cause tho murderers to be given up for trial and punishment. Accord - ingly a demand was made on the Tribe for the culprits, which was evaded from time to time. id lias never yet been complied with. The in jured tribe were beginning to be, impatient, and threatened to-use their own power of punishment or retaliation. This would have led to a war be tween the hostile nations—producing nothing but certain misery to themselves, and probable injury to the whites in the neighborhood To avert these evils, and to secure the execution of justice the. Secretary of War has thought it expedieut to send a large military force to the scat of conten tion. The troops will be commanded by Brig. Gen eral Atkinson, and will proceed from Rock Island to Prario des Cbeins, should the postures of af fairs seem to require their presence. Thd elections in Louisiana take place in July. At a gathering of tho people at Covington, in that State, on the 9th inst., Alajor Davidson, who is a candidate to represent that district in Congress, addressed the people at some length, in the course of which he said: “I have been cpllcd upon to express my opinion of the doctrine of Nullifica tion. I believe it lo be evil, pernicious and un constitutional—to have sprung from the inven tions of a set of office haulers, and got upas a po litical hobby, upon whieh thev expect to ride into office. This doctrine would, if it were to ob tain currency, sap the very foundations of our beautiful, happy and prosperous country—and I cannot believe that tho decendants of our great patriots and heroes of the revolution, will give currency to a doctrine which will so soon destroy their unparalelled blessings.” " ould.bt mi,i/:J by the term, uf q 5 j»M . pact to assist South Carolina, if ,ti ded r or any part of her populition !„ er f M While the only law jieUling * ?“ which neither a soldier cfln be eoffinn^ mounted, i. to be arrested hy 2® Bor »l| has tho right to claim this a«ijtance % P,r,T 1 gia, claim to do any tbingtike tit',,)' pretended that there would he an ta 7* 1 !

It has been asked, on what principle of consti tutional right could the President dual out a dif ferent measure of justice to South Carolina and Georgia? How, it is demanded, could he tocrcc South Carolina in the case of arresting a Revenue law, and not coerce Georgia when die refuses obedience to tbe mandate of the Supreme Court? We kuow not what may be the sentiments of du ty entertained by the Fresideut, when any one of these States stops the acto n of a Federal law within her borders. But this nssumes the ideuti- ,ty of Georgia and South Carolina resistance. It is strange to us that tho broad features of differ ence between an act of Nullification uud. the pro ceedings of Georgia should have been overlook ed. I la the first place, Georgia interferes with no law or treaty u£ tho United States, not only ac cording to her owu construction of the Federal laws and treaties, but according to the construc tion of one of the co-ordinate departments of the f ;overument in tbe formation of both treaties and a tvs,and of some of the highest judicial mcti in the Union. Judges. Keut and Spencer of Netv York, are with Georgia, iu her construction of her rights tinder the Constitution. Governor Cues? aud other eminent .individuals all over the Union, are found to lend the sanction of their authority to tho conduct of Georgia. What has Georgia, there fore doue?. She has not said,fliere is a treaty-or a law of the Federal government, which shall not be executed within our limits, hut she has pro ceeded to excrciso within those limits that civil and criminal jurisdiction which she takes for gran- ted has not been wrested • from her under any form of Federal legislation. She presumes that sho has still that portion of her reserved sovereign ty which she possessed wbeu she became a party to tho Federal Constitution. ’ Under thir persuasion she proceeds to do that which site couccived she had nt any time st right to do. She affirms that the laws aitd treaties of the General government, properly interpreted, do not divest her of the jurisdiction within her owu territory. Her interpretation it disputed. An appeal it made to the Court, whose office it is to expound the Law and tbe Constitution. Geor gia denies tho right of that tribuual to pass on her privileges ns a sovereign State.
