It will bo perceived that tho Senate yesterday
adopted tho masterly report of Col. Young, mid the
resolution rejecting the abolition resolutions of the

with equal unanimity, the republican Senators voted
in favor of it.

By tbo selir. Iloilo, arrived from Tampico this
morning, wo have uccouuti* from that city to the 5th

a merchant of this city, stating tlmt lie had left his
troop* ut Tnspitn, and was at Tuinpicofor the pur
pose of concerting with General Urrcu u« to tho
movements oftho Federal troop*. In nddition to tliis,
we huve been favored with the following extract nf
n letter from an American morchnnt nt Tampico, to
highly respectable mercantile firm in this city:
Tampico, March 23, 1839.
General Mexin is here: lias well flogged the gov
ernment troops, at Tuspan. nnd is now waiting for
general Urrca, who will be h’ro to-morrow, to con
cert plans for futqrc proceedings.
Thn French question has been settled. Busta-
mentc has left for Mexico to lead the army ngainst
this place. Gen. Arista and the government forces
are in Tula, about 60 leagues from this. All mny
yet go well for the federal cause.

hefj.o thu authorities of the Sta o where he is found,
are sound to deliver liim up. Even between States
wh i iy independent and disconnected, the luw of na
tion! requires only tlmt remouublo ground* lor thu
charge, sulliciout to put the uccusc.i upou his tri
al, s.tad be shown: and with goad reason, us tha
witnesses l.y whom the crime is to bo proved, will
naturally u..d usually be in tlie country where it was
committed, and it might be highly inconvenient fur
them to pursue the fugitive. But whatever ground
there might be for doubt as to thd nature of the
charge, or die evidence by which it should be sup
ported, if (tie Constitution was uur umy guide, has
been remove J by the action of a Congress, which
uumbered among its members many who had taken
purt in tlie framing or udoptiuu of that instrument.
Aii act of Congress passed February 14th, 1793,
provide*, " itiut whenever the Executive authority

MY MOTHER.
While others greet their hal -you hours,
They bring uu charms to me—
For midst these joys, a sadness dwells,
Whene'er I think of thee.
AM object* dear that meet my gaze,
In silence seein to mourn—
And gentle gales of evening sigh,
••Oh when wilt thou return."
As tho' they bloomed hy thee alone,
And Natures voice forbid—
Nn more thy cherished flowers bloom,
So sweetly as they did.
In dreams nf night thy form I see,
And fancy tliou nrt near—
Still blessing with a mother's love,
Still soothing with her care.
And nh! since Death's decree supreme,
Hath torn that form from me—
May nightly visions oft recall,
Thy sainted memory.

By thn •lenmvr CimrU’stou, Capt. lluhbird, we

poor, nml dollied with speciul power*. Gen Tny-

Jnbcz Jackson, lato Re|irpientative in Congress!
from tho State of Georgia, is about tuubsent himself
from lids country in tho pursuit of health. Thi*
genlleuiHii intends lo travel two nr three years, mu-
king a whin lour in Europe— extending his journey
Into Itally end Greece—nnd will then visit the more
intciesting portions of Asia and Africa, adjacent to

The LegMature of Upper Canada, has, iti* said,
appointed Sir Allan M'Nah, nnd Mr. II. Merrit.

From Vknkzukla.—Tho N. O. Bulletin, 8th
insteny*: We are indebted to thn politeness of
C.ipt White, oftho selir. Litchfield, for the (laceta
de Venezuela, dated Carrier,a* 17th Mnrch. It
does not, however, contain any thing of sprcinljn-
terest to the American render. Tho standing army
of thn R •public for tha present year, is lo he eight
hundred infantry nnd two hundred artillpryl and
the m iritimo force to consist of two schooners end
nne bnlandra. A convention was recontly ratified
between Vi’iiezuoh, Equndor nnd New Grenada,
for facilitating communication between thn inhabit
ants—newspapers, periodical* and pamphlets, ore
to be fiee from portage.
LATER FROM TAMPICO.
The same paper, says that rite arrival of iho
schooner R»llu, yesterday, pat u< in receipt of ad
vices from Tmnpico to the 25th ult., hut not con
taining a singln item of news in addition to whai
wn published soma six or seven days ngn. Arista
and ilitt govern ent troops were still at Tula, wait
ing the arrival of Businm-’nte, In-fire an ultnmpt on
Tnmpico; where all tho Federal force* were con
centrating, nnd making the greatest preparation*
fur resistance.
NEW LEON.
By way of Tampico wo huvo received the impor
tant intelligence that tho state of New Leon has de
clared in favor of the federal system. Thn plan adop
ted at Tampico on the llith December, was pro
claimed, and a provisional government established.
Thu governor had called upon the electors to appoint
municipal couuriis. It is propablo that this declar
ation of New Leon will enable General Lomus to
march into thn interior at the hood of a strong foccc,
Louitianim, 8thiiut.
BATTLE OF TUSPAN.

44 Vine of rite aid* of Geo, Moxla was killed and
tho oilier wnuuJud. Thn general* seivant received
a ball, wnichentrred his breast and went out at bi*

by a hail which lortuimiely did no harm. In thi*
glorious affair a soldier was ncur running the gene

through the body with his sword, with such force
that the blade broke. The engng«m*nl lasted mere

Vrrtn Canada.—The Kingston Chronicle of
Marth30th says that twenty-two oftho prisoners in
Fort Homy, captured at Prescott, nre to belmrne*
tllnlely released, hy order of Sir GeorgA Arthur.—
Among them are tho twenty who were recommen
ded for mercy hy tho court martial.
A bill lias been presented, in iho Assembly, toln-
crease tho punishment for enticing soldiers to desert.
Blanks were loft la tho bill, to be filled up with the
number of years to which imprisonment shall be ex
tended. Tito bill also provldus for the recovery of
penalties from captains of steamboats, or other ves
sels, who harbor deserters, and refuse to giro them
up when demanded.
Tho Toronto Patriot pleads earnestly for tho ad
dition of'a good flogging" to the imprisonment for
temnting soldiers to desert.
The sumo amiable and judicious paper designates
Mr. Charles Duller, Lord Durham's chief secretary
“ * Yankco loafer." nnd a " false ruffian."
Tho Toronto Mirror thus alludes to tho nff-tir of
Sergeant Flood, and thoalledgedplot to destroy tho
Government-house.
There is it sorgoantbelonsing to Mqlor McGrath's
troop confined in tho gaol of Toronto, charged, it is
•uid, with buying in lUs possession a plan of the gar
rison and Port Credit, nnd also letter* offering him
a sum of money to tiro tho Guvernincnt-huuso and
tho Purliumont buildings! It appears tho letters
wore found in hi* cap! Ho has been examined
twice boforo tho Executive Council. From oil we
haVe hcaid, it is evident that a foul conspiracy has
boon set on foot, either for tho dosirtnuion of tho
abovo buildings, or for llint oftho sergnunt; nnd we
trust the Executive will probe it to the bottom; for,
if tho c&so tuin* out us wo suspect ft will, no man’s
character or lifo can l>o secure in this province a
single dny. It look* rather stmtigo thut an old ve
teran of unimpoachahlo elmructer, poiHesslug cre
dentials fmtn officers of high rank, nnd it appears a
favorite with Sir George Arthur, would have been
guilty of romtunqilatiug tho heinous crime with
which ho is charged.
Wo do nut boHovo it, nnd shall not pronounce the
man guilty upon tho slanderous statements that are
now afloat. Who can bo safe when a wretch lias it
in his power to pioco papers of a treasonable nature
in tho wearing apparel of an individual, or in his
apartment, and hnvo him arrested for high troamnf
The fate of this man may be tho fnto of the most in
nocent mau in thu community. An oneiny to us
may put papers of a tren«onublo description into
our letter box to-night, nnd hnvo u* arrested to-mor
row morning! Many innocent men hnvo fallen vic
tims to foul conspiracies of this description; but,
when we view tho gentlcmnn now composing thn
Council of this province, wo nre perfectly satisfied it
will not bo thn eusa here. All eyes nre turned to
ward tho Executive Connell; nnd we have no dotbt
but tho guilty party, whether ft ho iho sergeant, or
his accusor, whom wc do lint know, will bo brought
to light.
As.to iho talked of invasion, it is a sheer humbug
and will not Ik? believed hy any person, except liy ti
morous fonmlos, or militia officers desirous nf per
manent employment. All is quiet un tit»other side;
there is no danger of invaskiii ut the Credit, or at
uny other IMiint of this lake; and if such should tnko
place it must bo known to our enemies, thut they
could not maintain a position nuo dny. Indeed, they
would bo slain or captured twelve hours after their
w ling.
n acquaintance of our* fortunately escaped o trap
throe weoks ago. A letter was droppea Into his
pocket. Hear it.
