I b-partmenl dues not doubt their willingness, and
nulccd their ra rerness t. po, but Ihe principle

thorised or tlit* public service would employ, had

r ■ . .. .■ z al >•; -and meritorious, could be re

thtiiev roti.J o ilv ho taken by the counter

for the regular requisitions of the government,
and could not be legally or equitably refused. •
There is an e vident misapprehension in the
.New Orleans prints as to the meaning of the or
der directing Gen. Taylor to retain only those of
the six in •nth's volunteers as would enlist for
•Y twelve months. The direction can only ap
j.iv to that nu.-ih, r sent hy Gen. Gaines in ad
dition to the requisitions of Gen. Taylor. 1} is
the mpemumenary troops only that it is inti nd
-I to include under tlie new terms.
Wcsce, therefore, no other course for (he gov

charge at once all volunteers remaining here,
who assembl ‘d under his proclamation, respon

Paris, Mat 26, 1846.
Since tlie date of iny last, vve have received
via Marseilles, tlie overland mail from India,
bringing the Bombay mail of the 15th April,
with dates front Calcutta to the 7th April, Mad
ras 13th April, and China 29th March. The
last arrival, however, is that which brought the
Uahon’ treaty, which you have, ere this, received,
and which seems to have terminated the report
ol important events in the East. The present
mail is quite barren. The Commander-in-Chics
and Governor-General, have both °uit the Pun
j.iub, leaving the the city and citadel of Lahore
occupied by the British garrison, under Sir John
Little. From 90 to 110 pieces of ordinance,
more than was anticipated, were found in La
hore, an 1, of course, taken possession of by the
British force:-:. Kauj-st Singh’s artillery, is said
to have consisted of 700 or 800 pieces, of all
calibres; and there are supposed to be now in the
Panjaub, nearly as many guns as have been
captured. The Sikhs in and about the Capital
are quiet, bat much discontent fomented by the
disbanded soldiers, prevails in the more distant
quarters. The sulky soldiery are breathing cur
ses deep, but not loud, against tlie English, and
vowing vengeance against the Queen and her
government, so soon as the British troops should
b * withdrawn. Western India is sulleritig from
s arcity, tin; result oftlie droughts of last season.
Cholera was spreading among the natives. Sev
eral failures of European houses connected with
Bojnbay have occurred. The health of Sir
George Arthur, Gov, of Bombay, is so much
improved, tiiat he lias resumed his attention to
bu uics-i. A Decree of the Portuguisc Gover
nor, ol the province of Macao, declaring Macao a
free port, has been published. But all warlike
stores, inl'amablc matters, tobacco and soap, are
prohibited. There are no news of interest from
China. The English still hold on to Chusan.—
Foreigners arc not admitted into Canton. The
city authorities are understood to he willing.—
The Emperor is willing, but the mass of the
people seem to he irreconcileable to the measure,
and violent outbreaks are anticipated as the
immediate consequence of attempts to enforce
it. The city is quiet, hut only because no such
attempts have been recently made ; but the
Chinese ho less complain of the ictcntion by the
English of Chusan, in vio'ation oftlie treaty
which stipulated its restoration upon payment of
the money, which has been faithfully made.
The French press has been too much occupied
with home matters, in attacking and defending
ministers and their policy, to spare much space
since tlie date of my last, for the discussion of
our dispute with England. The resolution
touching the notice to be given to England, is
considered as almost insuring an amicable settle
ment ot the controversy ; and the subject lias,
therefore, lost the interest which forced it upon
the notice so long as it was supposed to involve
the momentous issue of peace or war. The last
number ot La Revue dcs deux mondes, alludes
to American atliiirs in the following terms:—
“No immediate embarrassment appears to threat
en the English Cabinet on tlie side oftlie United
.States. Tlie vote ol the Senate, foreseen
throughout Europe several weeks since, has ren
dered war impossible, and cannot fail to affect
materially the action of the House of Represen
tatives. Moreover, tlie moral effect produced by
! the financial reform of tlie first Lord of the
Treasury in England, has been to temper for a
1 while the bellicose humors, of the merchants and
j iilantors. They would avail themselves of the
| benefits promised by this Tariff. Democratic
opinions, no more than material interests, are
without the reach of such inti nonces. It is pre
sumable, therefore, that negotiations will soon be
j re-opened upon the basis ot the 49th deg., and
i that at London they will no longer offer to the
| American minister, Mr. McLane, the prerempto
] ry refusal which his predecessors have so often
j encountered. They would rather yield the Col
i umbia than give up peace ; aud it is thus by
| avowing the purpose to take possession of the
I whole ot Oregon, the United States adopted the
| best means to make sure of a part. One of the
| causes contributing most powerfully to quiet the
j Oregon question is the new events dad . dcclar
j m g them -elves in Mexico, and the idle declara
! turn of war launched against the powerful repub
lic oi the north by that government. It was im
po-slide to have served move efficiently and op
portunely tlie interests of the Union and passions
oi the American democracy, for it has. clothed
with a sort of legitimacy its boldest enterprises,
and prepared the war lor tlie realization oi all its
dreams. Every arrival brings multiplied proof
!of the social decomposition which prevails in
i Mexico, aud oftlie imminence ofthe crisis which
ii :to bring about the invasion of this vast territo
ry by the United States. We signalized recent
ly the monarchical schemes oi Paredes. He was
the instrument of England who w'shed to in
volve France perhaps by an appeal to tlie dynas
tic interests in the struggle which sooner or Inter
is to break out between herself and the United
States. We learn now that without changing
any of bis projects, the new Mexican dictator has
suspended their execution, in order to avoid a
complication of his difficulties hy the addition of
a civ ii war to the exterior crisis which he has pro
voked by refusing to receive Mr. Slidell. More
over, while in Mexico, parties are upon the point
of com’ ig to blows, quite a different question is
being discussed in the remrie provinces and upon
the banks of the Kio Grande. There they are
not asking whether it is the republic or a monar
chy that shall be established—whether Santa
Anna or Paredes shall triumph—but they are
deliberating upon the very existence of Mexico.
Yucatan ibnnally demands annexation to the
United States. California refuses to correspond
with the centra! government—Sonora convokes
for this month at Alamos, a junto, charged with
th terming Ist, whether this state-will continue
to form part of .Mexico ; 2d, if becoming inde
pendent it would be expedient to govern itself
separately or to seek annexation. At this mo
ment a foreign army is at the gates oftlie Repub
lic. and a foreign Sleet is surrounding its coasts,
its troops are disbanding themselves instead of
inarching to meet the enemy. The generals are
evacuating the frontier cities. Matamoras is
only waiting a summons to surrender, and prob
bly the next news will be that Mexico has noth
ing left upon the gulf, save Tampico and Vera
Cruz. Tnc American question then assumes an
entirely new phrase since the Mexican rupture
with the United B'tates, and the military opera
tions upon the Rio Grande. We may now ex
pect to see the Cabinet ot London make its last
etl'o-t to involve monarchical Europe in tlie cause,
by invoking those principles upon which the so
cial edifice of our continent reposes. It \\ ill offer
a throne to Spain—perhaps to France. It will
t ;’k oftlie ambition of the young republic—and
take especial pains to spread before all eyes the
crowing audacity of its hopes and protects. But
France is upon her guard. She knows very
well that the republic is net coming from ever
■the seas to trouble her—and we doubt whether
our government itself is very much disposed to
try the Texan experiment over again. We
.would not advise it to do so, either with anew
chamber or even with the present. •
On the 19th, the discussion of the Budget for
1817, commenced in the Chamber of Deputies.
The general discussion closed on the same day,
but particular appropriations have met, and will
continue to meet with warm resistance, giving
full scope to the carping and watchful opposition.
The Budget divides itself into “ordinary” and
extraordinary expenses. The former amounts to
; ! ,335,000,000 Francs, which sum is swollen by
the “supplementary credits'’ already voted, to
nearly 1,375,000,000 Francs. This is much
more than the revenues of the State, and must
increase the deficit of the preceding year to a se
rious extent. The “extraordinary” Budgets
amounts to 120,000,000 Francs, making with
30,000,000 credits voted to the Navy, 150,000,-
000 Francs. This title extraordinary is getting
to be any thing but descriptive of the character
of the. Budget so denominated. It is an ironical
sort of appellative, finding its only precedent in
the latin “lucus a non lucendo.” They make
their annual appearance now so regularly, that
they may he and eemed as much “natter of course,”
as any portiou of tlie so called “ordinary” ex
penses. Since 1941, France has spent, under
the provision of the extraordinary Budget. 500,-
000,003 Francs, and her actual engagements un
d'-r existing laws, amount to nearly one thousand
1 miUio of Francs.
! Inal! tlie divisions to which these discussions
have led in the Chamber, tlie ministry has always
’ been victorious. A result which its cohort of
fU:;h&;! fauitionarits will continue to make
nearly certain, no matter how great may be the
abuses complained of; and it is not probable that
the coming elections will materially improve the
political complexion of the Chambers. These
elections will not take place so soon as was con
templated, in consequence of the prolonged Ses
sion of the C'haiuliers. It may be certain though
that they will be held early in August. Every
nerve is being strained to roust M. Arago from
his seat, and substitute in his stead M. Le Mar
quis do Contades, attached to the embassy at
Constantinople. But in this attempt it is thought
that Ministers will fail The illustrious savant
lias too strong a hold upon his constituents of
Perpignan. They consider that Arago confers
honor upon them by becoming their representa
tive, and in spite oftlie management and promi
ses, which may seduce some of the electors, the
mass, it is believed, will remain faithful, and send
him back in triumph. If the Ministers succeed
before the electors, in calling to the Chambers
one half of their creatures, who throughout
France already out m opposition to actual in
cumbents, their majority next winter will be
overwhelming.
I spoke in my last letter, of the volcanic state
of political Italy, and every mail brings accounts
of continued and increasing local disturbances.
Popedom in especially unquiet. Several of the
journals here though maintain that the extent
and character oftlie disaffection are misunder
stood, and the gravity of the facts indicative ol it
much exaggerated. The Debat s, however, be
lieves that there’s something in it. It contains a
long and interesting article upon the subject.
The last steamer doubtless advised you that
the Com Bill had at last, after a discussion which
for length and weariness, may well rival those of
the American Congress—ls weeks having elaps
ed since the introduction of the measure —passed
the House of Commons, and is now awaiting its
fate in the House of Lords. This great revolu
tion again occupies almost exclusively the press
and the public, the Irish Coercion Bill being now
out of the w ay. Conjecture is busy, and all the
great interests oftlie country anxious to know
what will be its fate there. Many thought that,
however well disposed to reject, the Lords would
not dare to do so in the tace of the many and
signal proofs of its popularity which have been
elicited during and prior to the discussions in the
Houfe'of Commons. One paper says that the
Lords had better yield and give with a good grace
what is now required, else the people will soon
come again and demand, with a clamor and a
power no longer to be despised, not only this, but
much more and even vital sacrifices on their part.
The Standard reminds t!>em that in 1832 they
were deserted by the people, and nothing but
liord Grey’s honesty and tlie King’s firmness
saved the House of Lords from being blotted out
oftlie Constitution. The meeting of the Pro
tionist Peers, immediately after the passage of
the Bill in the lower House, at Clarendon, in
which it was resolved unanimously to defeat, if
possible, the Ministers’scheme, lias been follow
ed by others, and their resolution is being ener
getically carried out. The opposition is regular
ly organized, and a sufficient nymber to defeat the
Bill are actually pledged. , home of the papers
are giving*it up and admitting that the deluded
Lords will have to bo addressed in louder and
more imperative tones by the country/before they
will yield or relax their grasp.
A great protectionist .meeting of agriculturists
was held at Willis’rooms on tlie 21st inst. pre
sided over by the Duke of Richmond, President
of the Central Protection Society. The room
would hold 2000 persons, but it was not large
enough, and Ihe Duke of Buckingham presided
in another room simultaneously, and the resolu
tions were passed. Much unanimity and high,
hopes prevailed upon the occasion. Deputations
Horn 200 county societies were present. Lord
George Bentinck was one of the speakers, and.
was most enthusiastically received, D’lsrdeli
also was there, and ej *cted the usual amount of
venom against Sir Robert Peel. The Duke of
Buckingham announced Lord Stanley as the
leader of the party in the House of Lords, and
said he would stand bail for his honesty. The
meeting separated after giving three groans for
i’cel and the Ministry. It is expected that in
consequence of the opposition to the Bill in tlie
House of Lords, Peel will soon be compelled to
resign, and Lord Staniey will be charged with
the formation of anew Cabinet. But it is not
believed that he will be able to keep the position
long, in the face of the party that will oppose
him. ’ WILBER.
INDIAN VIEWS OF THE CREATION,
A late traveller among the Indian tribes of N.
America relates some curious facts in regard to
the Ohipcwyan Indians, Their notions on the
subject of the creation are very remarkable.
They believe that; at first, the globe was one vast
ocean, not inhabited by any living creature ; but
that the Great Spirit came down in the shape of
a mighty bird, whose eyes were fire, whose glan
ces were lightning, and the clapping of whose
wings was thunder. lie rested on the ocean,
and immediately the land rose and remained on
the surface of the water. —This omnipotent bird
then produced all the variety of animals from
the earth, except the Chipewyans, who were
produced fro:p a dog; and this circumstance oc
casions their aversion to the flesh of that animal,
fcis well as to the people who eat it. The Great
Spirit having finished his work, he made an ar
row, which was to be preserved with great care,
and remain untouched; but the Chipewyans
were so devoid of understanding, as to carry it
away. This sacrilege so enraged the great bird
that he has never since appeared. They believe
that there was a great deluge, which spread over
the whole earth, except the highest mountains;
on the top of which their ancestors preserved
themselves. They have, also a tradition among
them, that they originally came from a remote
courifry, inhabited by wicked people; and tra
versed a great lake, which was narrow and full
of islands; also, that in ancient times their an
cestors lived till their feet were worn out with
walking, and their throats with eating.
There seems to be a curious coincidence be
tween this notion of the creation and the Mosaic
account; “the earth was without form, and void,
and the Spirit of God moved on the surface of
the waters.”

DEACON TODD
The Bor with a 58hort memory.—Retur
ning home from meeting one Sabbath afternoon,
the Deacon was accosted by a man thus;
Sir, did you see a man on the road, driving a
cart with a bag of cotton in it ?”
,‘ I think I did,” said the Deacon musingly. “ A
boy with a short memory wasn't he ?”
The man looked confused and said,“ why do
you think ho had a short memory, sir V
The deacon seemed to enjoy Lis confusion,
and even determined to increase it. *• 1 think so;
and-I think, moreover, that he must belong to
a family that had short memories.”
What in tnc world makes you think ”
said the man more than ever perplexed. *’
“ Why simply this,” said the gentleman, as
suming all at once, a very grave and solemn man
ner “ Because Got! has proclaimed from Mount
Hinai, in a most solemn manner,“ among other
things.—“ Remember the Sabbath day to keep
it holy ; and that boy has forgotten it. His mem
ory must be very short indeed, very.” .
We rode off as the Deacon pronounced the
last words, and left the man to his own thoughts.
He had evidently not been to church that (lay,

THE PliOtlD HEART HROIvEN,
Tell him, tell him that in the hall
1 was the light of the festival ;
Tell him how proudly I paced the dance,
.What power I bore in a word or glance,
And how each wave of my careless hand
Seemed a strong spell, like a King’s command.
Tell him, tell him, my lip was wreathed
JTitha glad cold smile when his name was breath
ed ;
Fell him I laughed with the proud and cold,
In mockery deep at, those days of old,
Those dreams offolly, the far, the dim,
When my haughty spirit was bowed to him.
But tell him not, tell him r.ot, day by day,
The light of my dark eye .blenched away ;
fell him not how in the hush of night,
His form would rise to N my aching sight,
Till mv hands were clasped o'er my closed eyes,
To shut out those haunting memories.
Friend ! gentle friend ! thou hast loved me long,
And thy heart is stirred with woe and wrong ;
Oh ! be it ne’er to the false one known
That my spirit’s worship was his alone,
In my dying heart is a gush of pride ;
Teii him not, tell him not how I died.
Say that I passed, in my flush of power,
A rose, flashed down by a sudden shower ;
A string which burst in the tide of song,
Touched by a hand too full and strong ;
A star that shot from its lofty sphere,
Losing its lustre and glory, here.
THE HERD'S OF PASSAGE.
UT E; OALLAVIIET.
High in tbe air, instinct their guide,
Speeding, until their home is won ;
By no temptation drawn aside,
The feathered travellers move on.
From cold and storms they wing their flight
To Southern lands with cloudless, skies,
Where nature smiles, forever bright,
Arid wintry tempests never rise.
I top, like them, would t ike iny way
To warmer regions, ’till the blast
And withering frost of winter’s day,
With all its gloomy hours were past.
And when old age comes stealing hn,
And being’s sun must coldly shine,
To some fair clime I would be gone,
Where life’s spring could again be mine.

This is a chemical extract of Wild Cherry and
Tar. Everybody knows that Wild Cherry pos
sesses important medicinal properties; aud Tar
Water has always been administered in Consump
tion, and Lung affections generally, by our oldest
and safest physicians.
Various remedies, it is true, have been offered
and puffed into notice for the cure of diseases of
the lungs, and some have been found no doubt
very useful: but of all that have yetbqen discov
ered, it is admitted by physicians, and all .who
have witnessed its effects, that none has proved
as successful as this. For Asthma, Shortness of
Breath, and similar affections, it may be pronounc
ed a positive cure. It lias cured Asthma in many
oases of ten and twenty years standing, after
physicians had declared the case beyond the
reach of medicine.
This Balsam is made from materials which
Nature has placed in all northern latitudes, as an
antidote for diseases caused by cold climates.
“Nature is but the name for an effect
IFhose cause is God.”
l et us not neglect her plainest dictates.
None genuine unless signed I. Butts.

DR. WOODRUFF’S
FEVER AND AGUE AND ANTI-FE
VER PILL.
\ RE a safe, and efficient remedy for Fever
hi-Laud Ague, one box being generally suffi
cient for two common cases. A trial of these
Pills is all, we think, that is necessary to con
vince any one that they arc what we recommend
them to be. Price, $1 00 per box.
Dr. Woodruff's Anti-Bilious Vegetable Life
Pills. The proprietor of the Anti-Bilious Pills
deems it altogether unnecessary for him to say
any thing commendatory of them.
These Pills have long been in use in the South;
by physicians and"others, they have been tested,
and the result ofit will be found in the certificates
given below.
We will only add, that if you find upon trial,
that they are worthless, return the empty Box
and get your money back.
We have made arrangements by which we
shall be able to turnish every family with a sup
ply.of them,and in order that all may be able to
purchase we have put them at the very low price
of twenty-five cents per box.
For further particulars, see pamphlets at the

To All Whom It May Concern.
We, the undersigned, having made use of Dr.
Woodruff’s VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS, on our

and some of us in practice as Physicians, in the
various diseases common at the South —cheerful-
ly give this our testimony in their fiqyois believing
as we do, that they are ah invaluable Family
Medicine—a fine anti-Bilious Remedy 5 and well
worthy of a place in every traveler’s trunk, and

goes, we have found them to act mildly, yet effi

most diseases.

Acrimonious Humors the cause and the only
Cause of all Pain and Distresses in the Body ,
PAIN is the warning given by the nerves
that there are acrimonious humors in the
body. No man ever had un affection ofthe lungs
but it arose from Acrimonious Humors having
settled there. No man ever had pain in the head
or an affection ofthe heart, but it was produced
by the presence upon those parts of Acrimonious
Humors. So with Rheumatism—it is the Acri
monious Humors which have settled upon the
membrane of the muscles. So with dysentery—
the Acrimonious Humors have settled’ upon the
mucus membrane ofthe-bowels, aggravated in
most eases by the retention of Hard Fecal matter
in those important organs. There never was a
pain or distress ill any part ofthe body ,(iip!ess it
.was produced by an accident) thqt was not occa
sioned by the presence of Acrid Humors, ,It is
these humors which have to be expelled, and by
so doing the Pain or distress is sure to be remov
ed. To do this, with certainty the Brandreth
Pills must be used. They are as innocentas
bread, yet all powerful as the remover of the
cause of sickness ; may be taken .at any time of
day or night without alteration in diet or fear of
