Important Claim on tiie !J. S. Treasury.—lt instated m several Washington letters that 11 Mr. fiibell of Florida, has ; a large claim on the U. S. Treasury,which he is now engaged i ! prosecuting. It covers a margin of $1,700,000. From the j various letters we learn that Mr. Sibell owned u Inrpe proper- i ty in I* lorida pending the Seminole war, saw mills for live oak, and various other improvements upon 4 large tract of land, the ! whole of which were broken up by the U. S. Army, and his whole business destroyed. He petitioned Congress, and at j ■he session of ’45-’6 an act wft passed for his.relief to the , amount ol f 18,000. He was not satisfied. And at the last session a hill was passed authorizing the claim to he settled I by the Becretarv of the Treasury on the principles of equity and justice. The counsel engaged for Mr. gihell, are Mr. Webster, Mr. Dallas, Mr. Berrien, and others. The evidence in the case is to be compacted intou brief by Mr. M’Culiough, of the Department, and presented tn the Secretary of the Treas ury, upon which his decision is to he made. “Gen. Taylor’s Family. —The father of Gen. Taylor was Col. Richard Taylor,of Virginia, an officer who served with sreut credit to himself through the. Revolutionary war. After the war, Col. Taylor removed to Kentucky, where he distin guished hiinselt in the Indian wars, and consequently held iiih- Inv civil offices of trust and honor. He was one of the framers ! of the Constitution ol Kentucky, and was u member of the. E lectoral Colleges which voted for Jefferson, Madison und Clay. [ Col. Taylor married Sarah Strother,by whom he had live sons Hancock, Zachary, George, William atid Joseph, and three dulighters—Elizabeth,Sarah and Emily* Hancock, after ser ving in the war against the Indians in Ohio and Indiana, died j a farmer, near Louisville, Kentucky. Zachary is “Old Rough and Ready.” George died a fanner, 011 the old family place, , near Louisville. \\ illiuin died a Surgeon in the United States i Army. Joseph, the only brother of the General, now living, is a Lieutenant Colonel in the army, who distinguished himsclt nt the battle of Okee-chobee, and bus now the control of the Commissary Department in Mexico Os the daughters—Eliz abeth and Emily died, leaving families Sarah, the only sister of Gen. Taylor, now living, resides (as do most of his immedi ate family) near Louisville. Gen James'Taylor, of Newport, Ky., is not a brother of Gpn. Taylor, but a cousin of the Gen eral's father. Gen. Taylor married a daughter of Mnj. Smith, 1 of the army, a citizen of Maryland. By her he hud four child ren—three daughters and one son. His eldest daughter, Ann, inurried Dr. Robert C. Wood, a Surgeon in the army, now in Mexico. The second, Sarah Knox, married Col. Jefferson Davis, who has so distinguished himself at Monterey and Bue na Vista. Mrs Davis died several years since. ‘The son grad uated at Yale College about a year since. Gen. Taylor is from one of the oldest Virginia families, and is related to und connect ed with many of the distinguished families nf that State—the Madisons, Lees, ‘Taylors. Barbours, Pendletons, Conways. Taliaferros—numbering amongst tlieir ornaments, James Mad ison, Richard Henry Lee, John Taylor of Caroline, Judge , Pendleton, James and Philip Barbour, General Hunt, of Tex- 1 ; ms; Gen. Gaines, &c.” The Cincinnati Allas saj s ; “Mr. Crittenden (Gen. ‘Taylor’s aid, who was passing through Cincinnati on his wav home) was mortified to find thal | several incidents of the buttle, erroneously narrated, have been ascribed to His authorship, und especially the profane language j attributed to Gen. Taylor respecting the second regiment of Kentucky Infantry. ‘The newspaper accounts of that incident j were substantially correct, leaving off the profanity incorrect- , ly (ml in the mouth of the General. In the distance, the im pediments in the way of the regiment in mounting the steeps of the ravine gave to their motions 1 lie appearance ol unsteadi ness and w avering, ami, under such apprehension, the General did rernurk three times, “That won’t do.” Blit when lie saw , them regain fair ground and move on shoulder to shoulder, like well-trained veterans and deliver th ir terrible site into the ranks of the enemy, he rose ill his stirrups, exclaiming, in n tone of exultation, “Huirah for old Kentuck !” Illumination*.—The citizens of Columbus, Athens, am) other cities, have had motl biilliant illuminations in honoi of the success of American arms in Mexico. At Columbu* the scene i* represented aa having been extremely animated. The city “Light Guard” paraded “ the tdreels, bearing an ap prnpriaie banner with characteristic devices, such as *• The Army and Navy,” “ Come and lake me!” “General Taylor never stnrendeis ! * “ Capldin Davis and his squad of 20,” “ A I tile more grape, Capt. Bragg,” &c. <slc. The public houses, and private residences, were all brilliantly illummat el, and ** a*l went merry as a marriage bell.” In the Demo crat office, (as we learn Torn that paper.) was a most touch ing anJ appiopriate transparency, “ representing a monument al column overshadowed by a weeping willow and beating the inscriptian on the tablet:—“ Sacred to the memory <f ; Yell , Ihrdin, McKee, Clay, Vinton , A Hurt is.” 4 c 4c. Ii was intended as a tribute of respect to the memory of the fat len brave, and was appropriately appreciated by tbe hunditd* , who looked upon the representation. TrfE NEXT CONGRESS.—'The probability that tbe Whigs will have a majority in the next House of Represent atives is every day acquiring greater strength. The result of the recent election in Connecticut shows that ’ the same general causes which h ive thus far operated to give 1 the Wings a majority of the members elect of the next House, are still at work. The administration of Mr. Polk began with a majority of seventy in the lower House of Congress. That it is about lo J lose this majority and to find the Whigs in the ascendancy, surprises no one while it affords a significant commentary on the course of the Admirti-t'ation itself. The weakness or the 1 perversity which has marked the counsels of Mr. Polk, takes , away all confidence in the wisdom of his Administration ; his own course of irresolution and inconsistency on public ques tions of importance leaves his own friends uncertain when to ttust him or whether to trust him at all. It has seldom happened that t e Genius of tine s ever led its votary into a more complete state of entanglement in the mesh's bf its own web, or more thoroughly demonstrated the littleness of that craft of statesmanship, which, mistaking cun ning for sagacity, strives to do everything by indirection ; which delights in mystery anJ exults in stiaugem ‘ and plumes itself oh beihg profoundly incomprehensible when it is only incompiehfehHbly vain und short-sighted. The official paper, ranging over the arid plain made deso late by its political occupancy, and finding neither living wa ters nor springing verdure, can do nothing hut raise a dust k With a sort of forlorn desperation it lesortt to calling the Whigs federalists and out of this th ice-beaten chair ol old polemics it would find pabulum for the nourishment ol j its democracy. In the mean tune the eyes of the nation are opening wider and widor. ‘The distinction between name ami realities is becoming daily more and more apparent, and the impression is spreading that there arc men in the country more competent to govern it than those now in authority.— Nay it is found that although a political majority may raise whom it will to statiofi, it cannot exalt the qualities pt its fa voriiat, hut that, in fact, in some cases, the higher the eleva : liou the greater the unseemly exposure.— Balt. A/net icon. Lime around Afplk Tines.—The Editor of (he Maine Cultivator, alter recommending lime lo tbo amount of a peck or halt a bushel, applied annually around p**ach trees, says . An old farmer of much discrimination obseived to us re cently that he had made it a regular practice, for several years, to s>w ('Rustic lime around his apple trees in the cpring. He had noticed that r tree standing in the immediate vicinity of his dwelling had all at once put forth with renewed energy, and he waSat • loss, for ►omettrne, to d> fine the cause. On inquiry, he found that a qtiuntity of lime, which had acciden tally been spilled, atul rendered worthless by becoming mix ed with the refuse on the stable floor, had been thrown at the fool of the tree, and to this, as the principal cause, he imine diately assigned the reviviscence and renewed fructification of the tree. Talcing the hint from this accident, he purchas ed twelve casks of limb, and applied half a bushel to each J tree, md'found that it proJuced immediate beneficial e ffects. Nut the hesbh of th 6 trees only, but the quality of tbe fruit also, was greatly improved. We would advise our readers to make tnal of this experiment and ires hetber it is deser'v- , mg of the high recommendation it secures. 1 1 APPOINtfMENTS BY THE PRFSTOF.NIV i The National Intelligencer announces the following appoint ment: Brigadier General G'THON J.
