NEW YORK—UOtT. WRIGHT’S MESSAGE.
The Message of the distinguished Chief
Magistrate of New York, attracts attention,
from the ability with which it is written, and
the influence of the great State of New
York, in the councils of the country. Upon
the prominent topics of Federal interest, the
Governor sustains and endorses the positions
and v.ews of the administration of Mr. Polk.
We copy the followingsiriking sentiments
upon the subject of a just and equal legisla
tion.
“ That legislation which equalises the benefits and
bunk si ol government extends the same encourage,
tucul to the enterprise nd iq lus try of all in every
■uua’ion and employinenl. and attempts to secure no
special p'ivi.ejres l any, will diffuse prosperity

tem ol taws,ail will feci that the fruits of their indus
try arejuvt.y secured u> themselves. On theconua
ry attampta 10 confer lavors by law upon classes 01
localities, produce a coinpeiiuon,destructive lo profit
able industry ; a st> ife not to earn, hut to gain the
va of others. Such a policy ntny accumulate
woaßtl in a few hands more rapidly than equal legis
ta.ioa. and niiytoihe supeificial obaerrst, present
the gieater *h • of p ospori'y ; but the appearance
la artiiiciat and delusive, aud is produced by a loictd
aad unequal distiibution of the proceeds of the labor
•f all. ‘i'he ten Je..cy of tuts fa I- e system is to separ
ate capital trom productive labor, and carried ou’ to Us
I*ll extent, will produce the singular rtsuft, Ilia’ he
who labors least may accumulate most, and he who
works the ImrJest may know the most want.*
Alluding lo that part of the Presidents
Message relating lo the Tariff, he says ;
“ The principles put forth as those which should
goeent an a Ijuetiqeth Jffehc la'vs fur the collection
t our revenue iift'Sh/fr’ Jkisiom*, aie also those the
rci'iitiir had a iruiu his public declara

have a promise of permanency, or winch wul give
re<>uib e sa : i -taction to the different sections ufour
wi tcly attend- and cauntiy, aud to tt.i tn various inter
csta to be tffreud.”
On the absorbing topic oi Oregon, Gov.
W right speaks as follows :
“The to -pic in the message of most engrossing
interest and of a paramount importance, is l lie frank
and c ear statement ot the condition of the negutia ims
between a- and Great Bream, touching the claims

OH THF TIMES,
FLORID
To the Editors of the Tirries :
Gentlemen As considerable interest
eee.ns to le manifested by the public, gener
ally, in relation to our Southern Peninsula, l
tiave ihouohi proper to select a lew items,
from the journal of a party that have recently
explored the country, f-<r and
entertainment of four readers. The party
cons sled ol Dr. John M. Norris, Ira Britt,
K-j. and two young gentlemen, W. E. Gil
bert a*l B. Briley, all of Russell County,
Ala. Their manner of travelling enabled
tn-m to take an extensive and minute survey,
and their practical knowledge of Agriculture
and hmg observations of different kinds of land
render t e.r judgment worthy of attention.
The party left Columbus. Geo, on the 4 h
Nov. 1*45, and travelled in a South East
direction, by way id Lumpkin, Albany,
*i houiasville, &c. to Madison C. H. Fla.
Tne country was thence examined particu
larly from the head waters of the St. Johns
to tiicGuif Shore, and its soil, productions,
scenery, &c. noted in the journal from which
the fallowing ileu s are selected. The
whole journal, if |l could be published, would
interest (lie reader more than these detached
portions.
The lands from the line of Florida to Alli
gator, Columbia co. are poor and sleril, cov
ered with the “long leaf pine” and “saw
palmetto”—but interspersed with small
-hammocks'’ that produce large quantities
of Sugar Cane and Sea Island Cotton.—
From Alligator to Newnanaville, rich pine
land are found in abundance. Around Like
Ellis, Ft. Walser, Payne’s Prairie, and Ft.
King, are found hammocks containing from
twenty acres to ten thousand, extremely fer
tile, and covered with an abundance of Oak,
Ash, HWioo, Magnohas, Mahogany and oth
er growths it digenious to a Southern climate.
The Prairie known as Payne’s is said to be
eighteen miles in length, and, where the
patiy crossed it, about two mdes wide, belted
all round rh the richest hammock? in the
world, on which Sugar Cane, the “Long-
Siaple-Cottoa” &c. grow in abundance and
to pertect-on. From Ft. King, in a South
direction, the country becomes a mere pine
barren for some distance, uutil you approach
Lake Harris, when it again appears exceed
ingly rich, and covered with heavy timber
and tropical fruits—Lake Harris is thought
to be fifteen miles long and from four to six
miles wide, its shares all round levied with
dense orange groves of considerable width,
and in November last, groaning under the
loads of beautiful and delicious fruit. There
the party found about seventy five thousand
acres ot the richest lands, and several intelli
gent and wealthy farmers. From the Lske
the party proceeded to the Gulf Coist, across,
the Withlacoocbee River, and found the
country generally elevated, rich, easily cul
tivated, ami in some places, pretty thickly
settled. The Nuikahga Hrtmnock contains 1
about 50 thousand acres of unbroken land, as
rich as the world produces bearing immense
crop* of Sugar Cane, Sea Island Colton,
Cuba Tobacco, &c. while plenty of corn can
be raised with no great trouble.
The range for cattle is without a parallel
on the globe ; and fine hogs are found in
•b-j KL-jce, ami rpipd without trouble, ex-
cept that of keeping away the tigers and
other animals which destroy them. Two
tigers were killed by one of the settlers a few
days before the arrival of the parly at his
cabin. This is a queer customer — Bill Mobley
by name — and a genuine specimen of tb©
backwoods-man order. He related several
singular incidents in which Bill was princi*
pie actor, and tQld of 6everai-— wljat he terra
ed “boisterous ” circumstances. The calves,
he said, grew so amazingly fast in his dig
gins that their horns bursted vyide open as
they darted from the animal’s head ; and
thus he entertained his visitors while they
remained wilh him.
The great fish stories that have been told
about the Florida waters scarcely do justice
to the country: —trout, mullet,and hundreds
of different kinds and sizes of these delicious
“ waterfowls” are seen playing and ffonneing
through the waters of the lakes and streams
in innumerable quantities. A small party of
fishermen will take a dozen barrels of good
fish in an hour, besides immense numbers of
the *• small fry” which they cast aside as
useless, it is altogether useless lo attempt
lo estimate the quantities of ducks and oilier
species of the leathered tribe, that hover
above the waves; —nor cou and even a guess
be made of the number of alligators that doze
lazily upon the banks. So great are their
numbers that the Capital of Columbia co.
has been calltd after them, and wuhsome
degree of propriety, for they areas vet far
the most numerous portion of its inhabitants.
The lover of the picturesque and ihe sub
lime in Nature, should take a trip lo Fior’a
Peuinsula, Several Natural curiosities were
visited by our party. Among these was the
Bug Spring—and a “big bug” it is—a body of
water bursting from the earth two hundred
and fifty yards across—depth unfathomable,
and forming a deep stream silty yarJs wide.
They crossed the Sautafee Itiver on a Na
tional Bridge, or rather on the level ground
under which the water runs for three miles;
these rising or issuing forth, it affords, water
i sufficient to float a Sieam Boat to the Gulf.
They ended (heir travels south at the Homa
sassee R:ver, which flows Irom one Spring
only eight miles Iroin the Gulf of Mexico,
Here they entered a boat to visit the shore,
and found themselves over one of the most
singular, beautiful and awful scenes in na
ture. The depth of the river is unknown,
and yet so perfectly transparent are the wa
ters that a boat upon them seems suspended
in the open air with an immense chasm
yawning far, far below. Millions of fish—
or raiher millions of sr/tools of the **fiunv
tribe” are glancing, splashing and jumping
through and above the colorless waves, seem
ingly unconcerned at the vicinity ofrangers.
On the way down this beautiful, yet awful
stream, one of the parly rucceeded in bar
pooning a young shark two and a half feet
long, and another in shooting an alligator
that measured ten feet.
I should not forget to inform yon that ihe
gen Imran, one of whom is a good physi
cian, believe most ol the country they visi
ted to be healthy, and a gieat deal of it as
safe lot living as any part of the world.—
The country horder ng the Gulf shore is as
healthy and agreeable as any land on ilie
globe and a home there cannot fail lo he of
piofit and of pleasure.
Very respectfully &c.

Correspondence of the Courier.
Washington, Jan. 15.
Sumo curiosity has been excited by the
prolonged Executive sessions of the Senate,
and the voluminous Executive message sent
into the Senate yesterday, In the present
suite of anxiety, it would have been supposed
that the subject was very important, as Mr.
Cass stated it to be, but for the fact that the
Senate would not allow it to interfere with
their usual recess from Thursday to Mon
day. I imagine that the subject related to
Mr. Slidell’s confirmation.
To show how rumors are got up here, I
would mention that during the Executive
session to-day, several Senators sent to the
L'braty, iu great haste, for books and docu
ments relative to our negociallons with Eng
land, and to the Oregon question, and espe
cially for the Nootka Sound Convention of
1790. As this could have nothing to do with
nominations, some suppo.sed tiiat the mes
sage of the President of yesterday, related to
some new proposition from him to the gov
ernment on the subject of the Oregon ques
tion. There is no doubt that the city will
be rife with rumors to that effect. The Sen
ators have become more chary of informa
mation as to Executive proceeedings of im
pojtauce, since Mr, Tappan was censured
for divulging the Texan documents.
The members of the House are as anxious
to discuss the Oregon question as ever.—r
l’he subject his certainly elicited much tal
ent. The House is lull <if talent for talking,
it nothing else. There has been a great deal
of good speaking in the House. If to speak
well lor the country be as meritorious as to
act well, as Sallust suggests, then the House
of Representatives deserves great praise.
To-day we have four speeches, and all
very respectable ones—from Mr, Cocke, of
‘Peon, and Mr. Bedinger, of Va. against the
notice, and Mr. Dobbin of N, C. and Mr.
Moore ot La. in favor of it.
Mr. Moore, last session, voted against the
notice because the negotiation was pend
ing, aud now he goes lor it because it is en
ded, and tbe honor of the country requires
that we should claim and sustain our rights.
Tbe debate will continue till the Liver
pool packet comes in, and that may give new
impulse to it.
} n the mean time, every thing else is lost
sight .of.
Tbe two most precious things on this side
of tbe grave are Reputation and Life. But
it is to be lamented that tbe contemptible
whisper may deprive us of the one, and the
weakest weapon of tbe other.

ARRIVAL OF THE SHIP LIBERTY,
FROM LIVERPOOL.
FOUR DATS LATEB.
Highly important from Europe—resignation
of the Ministry—tremendous excitement in
England—further prorogation of Parlia
ment—great political revolution in Qrreat
Britain—Ministerial crisis—advance in
American cotton—state of the corn market ,
<SfC. <%c.
Another of our magnificent fleet of news
clippeis-!~the skimmer of the Seas—board
ed the splendid ship Riberty, Captain Nor
ton, nearly one hundred miles at sea late
yesierday afternoon, obtained very late and
highly important intelligence from her, and
sent it by an extraordinary, express to the
office of ihe New York Herald.
The Liberty, sailed from Liverpool an
the 13th ult. and brings papers to that dale.
The news, which we have lbus received,
is of the highest importance—of more con.
sequence than any we have received in the
lasi ten veais.
It is no more nor less than the resignation
of Sir Robert Peel, and the organ.zatinn of
anew Cabinet by Lord John Russell
The announcement of this important fact,
important to the United States, in a com
mercial aspect, threw the whole Knglish
public into a state of the greatest excite
ment.
Its effect was tremendous.
In addition to this, and as a necessary
consequence, Parliament had been further
prorogued, as the following exhibits:—
“At the Court at Osborne House, Isle of
Wight the 10th day of December, 1845,
present the Queen’s Most Excellent Ma
jesty in Council,—lt is this day ordered by
Her Majesty in Council, that ihe Parlia
ment, which stands prorogued to Tuesday,
the 16th day. of December inst. be further
prorogued to Tuesday, the 30th day of De
cember inst.”
The Corn-Law question has been the
cause of all this.
The effect that this news will have upon
the relations between England and Ameri
ca cann m but he of the utmost consequence.
American cotton had improved. ‘
The following statement is made in the
Liverpool Mercury of tire 12ih.:—
The Message ofPeavK to America. —
An inquiry has been earnestly addressed to
us from London, as to whether the news
douching the expected opening of tlie ports
really left England by the Acadia, from our
rives, at noon on the 4th instant. Our re
ply is, and we can answer for the fact,
it did so. We have entitled if a message of
peace, because no one can doubt the effect
of the announcement, especially if followed
by realization, not only upon lire Oregon
question, but all oilier mattets of discussion
between the two nations.
This we know is a mistake. The an
nouncement of the London Times did not
come in the Acadia, although ii was evi
dently intended for that steamer.
RESIGNATION OF THE MINISTRY.
From the London Ft eri-ld, Dec. 12.
Sir Robert Peel’s Government is at an
end. AH the members of the Cabinet ves
lerday tendered their resignation, which her
Majesty was pleased lo accept.
It will be easily believed that we regret
this determination to sacrifice the industry
ol the country by stripping it of all protec
tion.
The important fact now announced proves
how completely wrong the Tidies was when
it stated tlnji the Government had decided
upon proposing to ParJiafment, as a Cabi
net measure,Nfae repeals'll the corn laws.
From the Dec 11,
An official anmirfeineiit, in another part
of our paper, part, of the state
ment which M^nade^cesterday—namely,
that Parliament, insurari of being sum
moned for despatch would
be
of our iimnniMement is, we
believe, equally correct. The Cabinet, we
I are assured, re-igned yesierday. It is con
! tidently stiid, that so far from the Cabinet
! liav ing at any time come to a decision to
recommend the repeal of the corn law, a
large majority of Iris colleagues have
throughout been opposed to Sir Robert
Peel’s recommendation.
Front the London Son, Dec. If.
THE NEW MINISTRY.
Immediately upon the refusal of the
Duke ot Wellington, on Friday last, to car
ry out what he had agreed to do—namely,
to propose a repeal ot die corn laws in the
House of Lords —it became apparent that
resignation ot office by Sir Robert Peel
must follow. Lord John Russell was re
commended to be sent lot, and a messenger
wns despatched on Saturday last to com
mand bis attendance at Osborne House.
His arrival there was expected yesterday,
and Sir Robert Peel expected t,u have met
him. Sir Ruber', however, returned last
riigbt without having seen Lord John.--
This morning l.ord John Russell and Sir
Robert Peel bad an interview of an hour’s
duration, after which Lord John Russell
left town for Cowes. He had an audience
of her Majesty, and has returned to town
this evening, having had full powers given
him to forma Government. He has sent
for Lord Palmerston, and is taking, it is be
lieved, all the necessary steps to lorm an
Administration.
From the I.opdon Post, Dec. 12.
The following is the most eotrect list of
the new Cabinet.—
First Lord of the Treasury; Lord J.

LATE FROM MEXICO.
The U. States brig Porpo se arrived at
Pensacola on Wednesday, with later news
from Vera Cruz. How late her advices
are, does not appear in the Gazette, ironj
which we get our information.
The import of this news is that Peredes
has entirely overthrown Herera, We quote
below from the Gazette :
The disaffection which had been thus gathering
head, broke out into open rebellion revolution as
soon as the arrival of Mr. iShdell *as made known
at the head quarters of Gen. Paredes who forthwith
issued his pronvndamcnto. or manifesto agaiust the
gove.nnjeut. This pronunciamento was re-echoed
by the fortificalious and garusoticd towns as soon as
received—the train having been well laid and the
match no sooner applied than the explosion took
place, almost siraultaaeoiiHy, all over the country.—
The city of Mexico, even the very seat oT the gov
ernment, throwing wide its gates as soon as Paredes
sounded his first bug ein its spacious valley—not
withstanding Herrera had taken all the precautions
in his power for the defence of this last s'rong-bold
of his party. Indeed, he used his authority so arbi
uarily as to give just cause of offence lo the citizens,
seising upon the public money without a arrant of
law, suspending the liberty of the press, levying
forced contribnttons, and maltreating and arresting
many of the principal individuals. Among others
the Archbishop was forced to take refuge in Tacu
baja, and Almonte secreted himself in tne city.
From the Pensacola Democrat, we learn,
that Paredes reached the city of Mexico at
the head ot six thousand troops, where there
were s'ationed 800 regulars and 30,000.
armed citizens, to suppoil the Administration
of Herera, but upon the arrival of the forces
of Paredes, the 800 regulars uedared in fa
vor of the revolutionary parly, and the citi
zens surrendered, President Herera retiring.
General Paredes then dissolved the Mexi
can Congress, and declared that they should
legislate no more until they should have
done fealty to him, Paredes declared him
self opposed to receiving any Minister irotu
the Government of the United States.
At Vera Cruz, soofe blood was shed, but
ali in the shape of legal executions, several
jofficers who favored the administration of
I Herera, proving somewhat refractory, were
l tried, condemned and shut.
From these accounts it appears (hat the
pincipai reliance of Paredes lor the success
of the revolution was on the hatred of tiie
people lothe Unued States. The first move
rrtent was made af'er the arrival ot Mr. Sli
dell, and the fact that Herera had invited
his coming was used for the purpose—-a fact
which shows how deep rooted m ihe Mexi
can army (which controls the country) is
the animosity against this- country. Doubt
less, however this rebellion was planned
long before the arrival of Mr, Slidell.
The following paragraph is extracted from
-he manifesto of Paredes to the Mexican
people. It sounds patriotic, and there
may ho some sincerity in it, but we doubt:
“As for myself, I desire no place—no power.—
Tho tjepht metal dictatorships winch h tve hereto
fore served only to heap ill-gotten wealth upon their
possessors, have no .linsioi-s sot me: On litis point,
my opinions are well known, aud they have been
proved more than once during tny arduous career.
ihe sta nos avarice arid corruption has nevej- fallen
upon my character. Mv ambition is more elevated,
and it I despise political intrigues, and hoid in equal
contempt the coirupf flaiterius which are usually be
stowed upon those in power, 1 qspire in exchange 10
a more brilliant and lasting g'ory, These are not the
hypocritical declarations ol an ambitious man setk
n.g lo hide his real objects fiom the public view, and
1 shall no sooner enier ihe city of Mexico than I
will couvokejan assembly, duly elected by ail ifhe
voters in die states andelolheu with unlimited au
iho. ity for tlie purpose of remodelling the govern
ment according to the will of the people. Alf class
es of society—the clergr, the military, ihe m igistra
cy, die learned professions, commerce, industry and
agriculture will be represented in Uds assembly, and
from the moment it meets ail power will cease to ex
ist, except such as n.ay emauate) from it. Happy
then at having conscientuouslv discharged my duly,
l shall eiilier retire lo privaie life or I shall a.-k the
privilege of marching lo the frontier to encounter the
usurpers of our terra ry aud ‘he enemies ol indepen
dence and prosperity.

He commenced hi* business career at Oja seat

of that institution; he managed it successfully and
prosperously until the great revo'utyin m the moneta

it failed. All who knew Mr. Davis peysopally, or
from business intercourse, can bear testimony lo jgis
deservedly high character and reputation as a busi

Shortly after the failure of the Sank of Columbus

A very important disease over which this “Bal

Ip this complaint ii has undoubtedly proved more ef

numerous in-nam es when paljenls had endured long !

therefore, either to cloak it in mytery, or many
way deceive the public by overrating its virtues ; on
the contrary, I shall simply endeavor to give a brief
