TOUCH OF Tilt; FA N C V.
Tnc British yutch Gent, balancing to t!ie Mar-
quls of Waterford, lately arrive*) in rtur tvater».
The Marquis, his brother, Lord Rosclvn, and Co
lonel Dumla* who. by his name, should he a
Scotchman, the other tlircc aro Irish, dined will)
the Mayor on Sunday, and leaving there rather
late, and rath r high, they committed sundry as
saults in Washington st. upon uiioffhmlhi g pas
sers by, lamps, and windows, for which pastime
they were, bfler a hard hatilo, captured by the
'.vatch uen, ami lodged in the watch house for
tin night. The Times thus relates the sequel:
* Whou the Police Office opened this morning,
four .silly looking young fellows, somewhat the
tt orse far the night's debauch anil encounter,
were placed befoie the liar, and the Marquis of
Waterford, Lord Joint lleresford, Lord Roslyti, ,
nndColuucl Duudas of the Royal Guards,, au-
xwered to their names. The Magistrate, Justice
Hopson, straightway iuformed them of the of-
oucos of which they stood charged, which they
in no very mild terms denied, and made some
high-toned remarks, which r.'rther served to put
the magistrate on his “reserved rights.’*— lie
toon made out n.commitment for them and they
were escorted'to Bridewell Ity-sotne fifteen or
twenty watchmen. Here their illy brooked de
gradation led them ium a squabble-’with the kee
per, iu which the noble Marquis was floored. as
was one of his companions. Here they remain
ed several hours; tint were finally liberated thro’
the interference of his Honor the Mayor and the
British Consul, after paying Carter the watch-
Mien fitiOTor'injuries received, and listerin" to a
most cutting rebuke from the magistrate.
The nflair w put iu rhyme and set to nut,it in
another New York paper—in as follows:
THE NOP*LEMEN OF IRELAND.
“Air—Ye Mariners of England."
Ye noble men of Ireland !
Who stay nt home at ease,—
Or float upon the gilded yah-li,
Fanned by the summer breeze,—
Oh, ne’er from Erin venture forth
To cross the stormy seas.
Hut stay, while you may,
M here the IV, ’ch your faces kuow,
tnd your frolics, loud, and long,
Yea never need forego !
Wo thought among die Yankees,
To Jo ns we should li s i,
And we drank, and we 'auglied.
And ive shook each noble fist;
And When the Charley caught ns,
We roared each noble name,—
Hut hod men had wo better been,
For our own aud country’s fame •
For “rioters” they called us,
And led us off* to jail,
Aud there aiasl wc had to stay
Till the Consul "went our bail,"
Tho chivalry of “Ireland!*’
Were then in doleful case.
Obliged to own each no We name
lu such a shocking placo;
Tile rabble rouio looked on and grinned—
And we looked ’ronud and frowned—
Ami the Yankee justice, he forsooth.
Administered “severe reproof,”
While culprits we stood ’round.
By Caronet and Garter 1
By Shamrock and by Rose!
AVe swore aloud our vengenuce diro
Upon our Yankee foes.
While J y H——n, our Irish friend,
&o Warmly did our cause defend,
Ho wont the streets about,—
“The story to hush up” he said;
And so every man did tell
What his “most noble friends In ft II,
And how he grieved the same to tell,
And hoped ’mould urn get out
Now noblemen of Ireland!
Wo are sick of Yankee laud;
Auii wo burn to return
To bido each blushing brow
And some laurels fair to earn
Bo forgot this lioyish freak;
Ami let Fame our Praises speak
In “the House”—in the strife
Of tho Camp of naval life—
Auil Britain proud in coming yeare.
Will gloty iu her Irish Peers.
New York, Oct. 1635,
>Trenties; thereby having obtained riches out of
J:he poor Indians. Tins Red Clay council in
Tennessee, sent John Ross and others to Wash
ington,-with the .wowed object ot contending for
the entire lights of the imiiaus, who were told
that cxettious would be made to drive all the
While People out of their country, and with them
their laws and State jurisdiction. Of course
! these promises, though never intended to lie ac
complished. w ere exceedingly popular with tho
ludiuus, as they love liberty more than their
lives.
Mr. Itnss and the Ridges which-have induced an
agreement to hold a friendly conference on the
points of difference between them. This confe
rence is to he called nt a time and place by Mr.
Boss, with the consent of Mr. Ridge. The pro-
prietv of holding the conference we are told was
suggested by M“. Ross. There is nuother party
composed of fine aud talented men in this na
tion who deplore tbedivUiou of their people into
parties and who aro anxious to unite the parties.
At the head of this party we are informed, are
Judge Martin, Win. Rogers, Maj Waters, the
lhc other delegation was appointed by those Sanders, aud perhaps David Vann. These men
opposed to State jurisdiction, aud in favor of arc liberalise in principle, and would do great

-M \XIMS FOR WIVES.
Tho suhjoiucd maxims for wives are so excellent,
that they are supposed to have been compiled by
a lady, if so. «nine pattern of good husbands
ought to set himself to the task of presenting four
maxims on tho other side, to match:
MAXIMS FOR WIVES.
.1 A good wife always receives her husband
with smiles—leaving nothing undone to render
Imiuo agreeable; aud gratefully reciprocates his
kindness and attention.
2. She studies means to gratify bis inclinations,
in regard to food and cookery—in the marthgi-
ment of her family—in her dress, manners, and
deportment.
III. Sho never attempts to rulo or appear to
rule her husband. ?*'itch conduct degrades hus
bands—nnd wives always partake largely in tuc
degradation of their liusbauus.
5 V. She in every thing reasonable con-plies
rrith his wishes; and if possihloanticipates them.
„ friendly
lion, Christianity, and Education—for these also
have they provided well iu the Treaty. They are
friendly to the aged aud the orphan—iheso re al
so provided for. This proposed Treaty is pub
lished to the world—anil only one uuited senti-
timeut of approbation is expressed iu favor of it,
by the American People. All Parties rejoice
Unit One Natiou contains men, the descendants
of the noblest race, who scorn personal profit and
speculation, anil grant with an equal maud, the
price of the hind in tho People. This Party
have proposed their Treaty to the Natiou, and
many have received it well. Those who arc
active iu this cause of Liberty , are Maj. Ridge, a
gentleman well known as a Chief, Warrior, and
Orator, for many years—tie has become old iu
the councils of Ins couuiry aud is yet vigorous iu
health ami streugth, Mr. George Chambers of
Tarapin creek ill tho chartered limits of Ala. is
also one of the most eminent men of this People,
llo is n half-breed of good taleuts, a distinguish
ed debater, a farmer, mid a gentleman of great
moral worth; aud is also a professor of the reli
gion of the methodist church. This gentleman
is heartily engaged in convincing bis pec pie of
the propriety of preserving themselves, as a Na
tion, iu the West. In the chartered limns of Al-
i a. if possible, the revolution iu favor ot removal,
j is progressing more rapidly than iu this State,
i There the Chiefs are zealously engaged iu the
[ cause. Among other distinguished men are
| Charles Vauii, John Gunter, Joliu Ratliff, Win.
Grimmitt, Andrew Ross, a brother of John, S. W.
Bell, \V ni. Lass ley, the Frog, Long Shell Tur
tle &c. These and their friends who arc too
numerous to meiuiou. are at work and will suc
ceed. In Georgia, a part of the Hicks,* Bondi*
not, Tcsnhtaskec, the Moores, Archilla Smith,
Jesse ilalfbreed, the Ridges, and a large number
of others, are now doing a great deal—they will
fin illy triumph. The last council of three days,
was one of vast interest—at it many of ihe strong
est of the Boss Parly abandoned him.
This abandonment is calculated to weaken
that Parly, and r.s the Indiaus have only the right
of occupar.ci/, that right the Ross Party will soon
lose, hy their own acts: John Ross has already
abandoned it, by moving to Tennessee, from
whence ho came originally. Joseph Vann is
gouc to dial State; aud Judge Martin, Richard
Taylor, Judge Daniel aud some of his friends, arc
now making settlements iu the chartered limits of
Tenuessce. Their orders from thence arc disre
garded, nnd the lending men of the Treaty Party
and their People, will remain in their occupauey
in Georgia until they sell out.
The Indians of Ala. arc linked by a common
interest, affection and principle, to iho Georgia
Indians, 'i hose of Tennessee aud N. Carolina
act together as yet with Joint Ross and his coun
cil at Red Clay-. Tho object of tho proposed
Treaty Par’v as wo arc iuformed, is to induce !
consent to have them sink into a moral degrada
tion, without a country. Should the Tennessee
and N. C. Imiiaus refuse to treat with his com
missioners on tht basis of picseivitig them as a
Nation iu the West, he will cense to respect John
Ross aud his party, and will not receive their del
egations. He will not suffer these men, who
have enriched themselves iu former treaties to
take fortunes out of the five millions, aud let tile
Indians go off naked aud in tears. The policy of
the U. S., the laws of Congress, and Gen. Jack-
son himself, will not allow it. Aud ivc are -surc
thc Georgia nnd Alabama Indians w ill uot allow
it. Those whotnmber with the policy of iho'U.
States in rclnlkm loihe Indians tnay well pause—
they walk on a volcnnoc which may explode all
iheir hopes of making money, and consign them
to everlasting oblivion.
T11E PRESIDENCY.
“Many of the Ritner editors are attempting to
delude people living out of the State. They
say the success of llituer will ensure the defeat
of Vnti Huron. The editor of the N. Y. Star
puts it dow n lor certain, that “if Rituer is elect
ed Govcruer of Pennsylvania, the election
lost to Van Bnreu.” Now it is well enough to
talk this ::t home, and for home elfcct, hut if our
frieuds abroad believe it, they aro deceived. The
election of Rituer will not iveakeu, but strength
en Van Baron, by mare effectual}’ uniting his par
ly. That this will be the result w e have no more
doubt, than wc have that the defeat of the demo
cratic parly on former occasions, have been im
mediate sweeping and overwhelming majorities.
Let tho reader, particularly tho Whigs mark our
predictions,”
The statesman is right, if wc may trust every
sign wo sec, and all the accounts we have receiv
ed. The success of Rimer “will not weaken,
but strengthen Van Bureii ’—It will more efl*ect
ualy unite his porty.” lie is the point d'appui of
the contending parties. The frieuds of Wolf aud
Muhlenberg, however much opposed to each o-*
'her, about the Governor are decidedly uuited on
Van Burca for the President. His name floats
on the flag of their Journals—and all the Resolu
tions of their Meetings rally upon him. Experi
ence will convince them as their error in ruu niug
a split ticket for Governor. They will see how
much they have lost by their division, and how
necessary union is to their strength and success.
We have ourselves uot tho remotest apprehen
sion about Pennsylvania—and we trust as soon
as the family quarrel has been settled, nnd how
ever it may be settled, that our friends will ccaso
all recrimination, move again in concert, aud
come out at once for the Man of the People—

THE FRENCH QUESTION
Wc have no further accounts from France; bin
if there be any truth in the following hints, from
the last New York Courier des Etals Unis, the
question is certainly not yet settled llow the
frank, manly, aud masterly letter of Mr. Living
ston. could have been illy received, by the French
Cabinet, we are utterly at a loss to divine. That
document with Mr. Foisyth's endorsement,
ought to have been satisfactory to the French
Ministers.
“\\ e have good cause to believe that the let
ter of Mr. Livingston has been iliy received by
the •*’reach Cabinet, and that the Ministers de
clare publicly enough, that their course has een
filially taken, and that they are prepared for any
event. It is therefore with much regret, 'hat ue
have observed one of the Correspondents of a
paper of this city, usually well informed, writing
Messago of the Presi-
next Congress will be
tiling less than flattering for the diguity of
Frauce, and of a nature far from being pacific.
This will not he the mei.usofsctlling this unfortu
nate affair.
“We have heard a person -veil versed iu the
French laws observe, that all treaties were void,
if thejcouditioiis imposed by them were not fulfill’d
within two years after the vote of the Chambers.
\\ c have uot the means of testing the accuracy
of this assertion hy cxamiuiug the -Bulletin’ of
the laws passed since 1814. aud we would thank
our readcis, who maybe betlei informed than
tve arc, to enlighten us ou the subject. If it is
true that a right of prescription is acquired after
two yeats, the Amciican Treaty would be-valid
until Juno, 1837.”
But bow can we be surprised at any course
which Franre may take upon our relations, when
■we W'hness the infaiua'iou which her ministers
display, iu relation to her own People? Who
could have expected so severe a law against the
l*ibei ty of the Press, of the Theatres, &c. &c. as
has been recently pressed by her Chamber of
Deputies ? Well does the Courier des Etals Unis
denounce the measure, as one of the most mons
trous oppressions of the age—W ell does it ask,
how such an abuse becomes a King, who owes
his crown to an Insurrection growing out of an
attack upon the Liberty of the Press by his ill-
advised predecessor. The preject of Charles X.
was not so outrageous ns the Biil wiiich has just
passed the French Chamber. Will the Freuch
People submit to it ? ?.lay nc uot look out for
new commotions in that country? Is the Volcano
never to rest from its labors ? The Courier ap
peals with proper pride to the- indignant denun-
viatiou whicn it has received from the English
Press, the only free Tribunal of public opinion in
Europe, The American Press ou-lit also to
speak trumpet-tougned against it. It is a stig
ma upcu France—and upon the age itself. (The

Serious Affair.—Chestiut Street, between
Third and Fourth, was yesterday afternoon
thronged with persons attracted by the opera

here on manday eveuing last, lias had very lit

cents—principally at 15 a I5J cents. The quali
ty of iho Cottou received here so far this season,
has been better than any former season for a
number of years past; in fact, a uumber of our
merchants, tvho have been for some time past
dealing iu the article, have mentioned to us. that
this y ear’s growth, as far as received, for staplo
and quality, far exceeds any previon9 year with

Great Firs in Huntsville (Ala.)—We learn
from a gentleman (says the Mobile Mercantile
Advertiser of the 13th iust.)arrived in this ci*y
last eveniug in the steamboat Jack Downing,
that the town of Huuisville hud bccu vssitod
with a desolating fire.—Our informant passed
through the place after the occurrence of the ca
lamity, and rcpresciHs the-destruction of build-
iugs and property as very large—he thinks about
30 buildings were burnt iu tiie best part of ilie
town. Tho post office was about the only build
ing saved on one square. The fire originated by
accident iu a lawyer’s office. These are all the
particulars wo have been able to learn.
The .Montgomery, (Alabama) Advertiser, of the
lGtlt inst. says;—Twenty tenements were burnt,
including the ilnutsv lie Inn, and the entire loss
to her citizens is estimated nt no; less than one
hundred thousnud collars. It originated through
carelessness aud at a time wheu three or four
hundred persons were attending a circus iu the
vicinity.
The Democrat says, “tbo want of system and
proper management was never more obviously
displayed, than at this fire ; tile scene for some
time appeared to bo one of general confusiou,
and uot until it was too late to arrest the spread
of the flames, was a supply of water conveyed
to 'he engine.”

tiatiou for considerable period pruduct-.d comic-
tion of the truth of the report.
The only thing that has caused a doubt iu ow
tniutls of the correctness of our information hit*
faet that Santa Anna is uow collecting troops
for the invasion of Texas.
It will be recollected that wo publislul a leiltr
some weeks ago, from judge Chambers, iu which
he stated, (aud the inmost confidence was pla
ced in his statement by the committee of safety
of Columbia.) that Santa Anna had uouutricud-
ly feeling towards the citizens of Texas, aud lint
all reports of a contrary nature were uuluumiri
and were put into circulation by certain lard
speculators. Subsequent news, however, inf
orms us that the Judge himself was dectivrd.
*1 lie people of Texas are uow well couriuccd
that Esaula Anna’s intention is to break don
the State Government and compel the people to
unite in support-of the- rcntral government eUt-
blirii»il by iho priests aud soldiers. Uc bare
been informed by a gentleman five days from
Nacogdoches, that a convention is to be held a
a place railed \\ ashiogton on the lath uf tbe
present month, of delegates from the several de
partments of Texas aud Coahuiln, with unlimi
ted powers.
This is evidence of the opinion of the peoplf
of Texas, as to the designs of riauta Anna, and
this it is that l.-as caused us to doubt of the ccr-
recluess of the report we published.—A- CotmV.
Princely Bequest.—We were told a few days
since in H asfaiuglmi, that a gentleman oi' Fans

W e have the pleasure to inform on.’ frieud of
the Arena, that wc believe his iulcliigeiirc is sub
stantially correct. We learn that iuforaiotion
has been received by the Government, that such
a bequest was made l>v some Engli>b gentleuitu

sterling w ill in all probability inure to this city

The money, we understand, w as bequeathed in

but in case of his death without an heir, to go to
