Veto Message*.
Monday, May It*. —I.v Senate.—Two messages
• are received from the President of the United j
v ates vetoing improvement bills which originated j
n the Senate. They are as follows :
Washington, May 19, 1858. j .
?< i’« Senate of the United Staten: t
I return herewith to ibe Senate, in which it t
ruinated, the bill eutitled “ An act to remove j «
■be.ruetions to navigation in tlie mouth of the
Mississippi river, at the Southwest Pass and Pass
i.l'Oatre," which proposes to appropriate a sum I
f money, to be expended under the superinten- :
dense of the Secretary of War, “for the opening
and keeping open ship channels of sufficient ea- : t
» ■ ac unmodate die wants of commerce ■ <
’..trough the Southwest Pass and Pass a l’Outre, ; :
• adiug from the Mississippi river to the Gulf ot ; i
Mexico.” i ,
In a communication addressed by me to the two
Houses of Congress on the 3t)tb of December, : •
■ 'ld, inv views were exhibited in full ou the sub
a’tof the relation of the General Government to ;
sterna! improvements. 1 set forth on that occa- , i
•;<)n the constitutional impediments which, in my
’trunk are insuperable to the prosecution of a sys
:eai internal improvements by means of appro- ; i
from the Treasury of the United States ; j
aire especially the consideration that the Consti- j ;
iuun does not confer on the General Government 1 <
*uf express power to make such appropriations;
Eftt they are not a necessary aud proper incident i
"t any of the express powers; and that the as- i
'.aption of authority on the part of the Federal j i
■Fernment to commence and carry on a general
Life in of internal improvements, while exeep
aable for the want ot constitutional power, is in
other respecis prejudicial to the several interests
aad inconsistent with ihe true relation to one ,
snother of the Union and of the individual States.
These objections apply to the whole system of \
internal improvements, whether such improve- |
meats consist id' works on land or in navigable
waters, either of the sea coast or of the interior ‘
lakes or rivers.
I have not been able, after the most careful re- ;
■lection, to regard tin- bill before me in any other i
light than as part of a general system of internal
.mprovemenis, aud therefore feel constrained to
submit it, with these objections, to the re-consid
•s-Htion of Congress. Franklin Fieri h.
Washington, May 19, 1855.
Tj the Senate of the Unitesl States:
1 return herewith to the Senate, in which it ori
,mated, a bill entitled “ An act making an appro
priation for deepening the channel over the St.
Clair flats, in the Slate of Michigan,” and submit
f..; rec msideration, because it is in my judg
ment liable to the objections to the prosecution of |
internal improvements by the General Govern
ment which have already been presented by me iu
previous communications to Congress.
In considering this bill, under the restriction
bit the power df Congress to construct a work of
internal improvement is limited to cases in which i
the work is manifest!v needful and proper for the
execution of some one or more of the powers ex
pressly delegated to the General Government, 1
jftve not been able to find for the proposed expen- j
diture any such relation, unless it be to the power ;
to provide for the common defence and to maintain ,
»a army and navy. But a careful examination of
me subject, with’the aid of information officially
received since inv last annual message was com
municated to Congress baa convinced me that the
expenditure of the sum proposed would serve no
valuable purpose as contributing to the common
defence, because all that could Tic effected by it
would bo to afford a chaunel of twelve feet depth,
ftai of so temporary a character that unless the
w °tk was done immediately, before the necessity
Icr it» use should arise, it could not be relied on
rir the vessels of even the small draught, the pas
sage of which it would promote.
Cnder existiug circumstances, therefore, it can
sot be considered as a necessary means for the
ommon defence, and is subject to those objections I
»nich apply to other works design d to facilitate
commerce and contribute to the convenience and :
ocal prosperity of those more immediately con
'eraed—an object not to be constitutionally and 1
.'astir attained by the taxation of the people of the :
w ho!e country. Franklin Piuace.

' The Recognition of the Nicaragua
Minister.
Among the documents recently communicated
: to Congress in relation to Central American affairs,
is a letter from Don Augi stin Vigil, the new Min
ister from Nicaragua, addressed to Secretary
I Marct, in which he thus explains the origin of
the troubles in that Republic, and the final over
i throw of its government :
Nicaragua, more than ever since her history
began, for the last three years, has been bleedinir
at every pore. The inauguration of Don Furete
Chamorro, as the Director of Nicaragua was the
commencement of the storm ; shortly after it he
began to show Ins tendency to despotism, and
usurping the sacred rights of the people who had
elected him, he commenced to form the chain of
their misfortunes.
Fearing however, afew citizens who had the in
terests and liberty of their country at heart, he
adopted a course calculated to render their patri-
I l . )!lsrn useless, by commencing criminal proceed
ings against them. The greater part of these
men were liberal members of the constituent as
sembly which had convoked lor April, 1854, and
possessed too much integrity to vote away the
; uoerty of the Repuohc. Among them were Don
r rancisco Castillon and General Jerez; the former
a well-known, upright and influential patriotic
| citizen, a loan of liberal views, of a superior edu
cation, and a correct knowledge of the world that
he had acquired during a long residence at differ
] ent. courts of Europe; the latter is also of simi- !
lar character, views and experience. These 1
and other patriots Chamorro imprisoned, and ban- ;
ished subsequently to Honduras. Gen. Jerez, at
the bead of a few courageous men, returned to Ni- '
caragua; and at Chinandega, the first large town {
■ near the borders of Honduras, he organized a Pro- ]
: visional Government.
The popular masses joined him freely, they hav- j
; mg become alarmed at the proceedings of Cha- j
j morro. The forces of the Provisional Government !
i marched to Leon, where Chamorro had his camp ; j
and as soon as both armies met, the whole Chamor- !
| ro force came over to Gen. Jerez. Chamorro then j
I to °k refuge in the city of Grenada, and by sacri- 1
j being the wealthy portion of the population he as
j sembled together a force of one thousand men, -to
stand a siege of nine months in the Plaza—during
which time a large portion of this beautiful city
was completely destroyed. The Provisional Gov- 1
! irnment was compelled to raise the siege, aud in
j cited American citizens to lend their aid to it.
j Ninety of them responded to the invitation, and
! became naturalized citizens of that country.
Shortly after Chamorro died and the Constituent
Assembly, trampling on the very Constitution and
charter they had made but a few days before, arro
gated to themselves the ordinary legislative pow
er, and appointed Don Jose Maria Estrada as the
successor of Chamorro, whose footsteps he began
to follow. This is the style of Government which
has been styled legitimate, and which was not and
could not he so according to the .Constitution ol
tba; State, because Chamorro's term of office having
expired, only the people of Nicaragua, represented 1
by the Justus of the Departments, and never the
Assembly, ought to have appointed the successor.
With the assistance of our brave allies things were
soon changed, and our forces took possession ol
the city of Grenada on the 15th of October, 1855.
At this time the Americans in the service of Nica
ragua did not number more than one hundred and
fiftv men, commanded by Gen. Wm. Walker.
He goes on to state that thus assisted by their
American allies, they formed a new government,
with Klvas as President, and Walker as general
ia-chief of the military forces of the Republic.
Ihe election ot Rivas, he savs, was approved of
by the general voice in Nicaragua, and he then
adds :
“His i Rivas first step was to address a peace
ful and friendly invitation to the chiefs of the
Gentral American Republics, The government of
Guatemala deigned not to give an answer. The
Salvadores manifested a disposition to form friend
ly relations. Honduras recognised the new ad
ministration, but Costa Rica declared a horrible
war of extermination against it."
In conclusion, Vigil asks, for the interest ofboth
the United sitates and Nicaragua, that he mav be
received as the Minister of the latter, and that he
may find here a government friendly to the peace,
prosperity and permanence of his own.

GREAT BRITAIN.
1 lie (Jin-en held a court at Buckingham Palace
on Thursday, the 7th inst., for the purpose of re
viving the addresses on the peace from the House
of Lords, the House of Commons, and the citv of
London. The deputations came in great state, and
numbered nearly a hundred persons. The Queen
briefly acknowledged the addresses, and expressed
her satisfaction that peace was re-established on a
basis that affords security for its permanence.
Both houses of Parliament have recorded a vote
of thanks to the army and navy. Lord Pantnure
moved the resolution, and was ’seconded by Earl
Derby in the Lords. In the Commons, Lord Pal
merston made the motion and Mr. D’lraeli second
ed it.
Lord Granville announced that a pension of one '
thousand pounds sterling, for life, would be settled
on Gen. Williams, who is also created a baronet,
by the title of Sir Wm. F. Williams, of Kars.
Lord Elgin postponed his motion of inquiry res
pecting the troops ordered to North America until
after the holidays.
Lord Colchester gave notice of a motion requir
ing Parliament to express its disapproval of the
policy of abandoning the maritime rights so long
held, as the Congress of Paris had pledged Great
Britain to do.
To celebrate the peace the Queen has granted
amnesty to all political offenders, consequently
Smith O’Brien, Pros’. Jones, and others, may re
turn home. Special exception, however, is made
against those who escaped to the United States.
Lord Wodehouse, Under Secretary for Foreign
Affairs, is appointed Envoy Extraordinary to St.
Petei sburg. The appointment i* generally ap
plauded.
The Lord Mayor of London had given the cus
tomary banquet to the Ministry. The whole tone
of the speeches on the occasion was congratulato
ry respecting the peace. Count Persignv, the
French Ambassador, said nothing could sever the
alliance of France and England. Lord Palmer
ston replied, reciprocating the sentiment and com
plimenting the Ministers present of Sardinia and
Turkey. Lord Clarendon then spoke, glorifying
the peace, and complimenting Russia. The usual
toasts followed, and the company separated early.
The American Minister was not present, being en
gaged at the annual dinner of the Literary Fund,
where he made a speech.
The Crimean Board of Engineers continue its
sessions, but they have lost all their interest,
Col. Tulloeh being sick.
A regiment of German Jagers at Plymouth had
mutinied. The ringleaders were arrested. They i
complained that the drill was too severe, and that j
they only enlisted till the cud of the war.
The five regiments in the Crimea under orders j
for Canada are the 7th, 9th, 39th, 62d and 03d In
fantry, under the command of General Eyre.
BELGIUM.
A despatch from Brussels says :
In the Chambers on Wednesday, the Foreign
Minister, in answering an interrogatory in regard
to the recent speech of Count W;.leu-ski on the
press of Belgium, replied that that speech had not
been officially communicated to the government.
When mat communication should lie made the
answer would he ready, and would be comtnunica
| ted to all the governments, aud would firmly main
tain the rights of a constitutional and independent
i country.
It was asked further whether any Power had
asked for anv modification of the laws relating to
the press in 'Belgium. The Minister said he would
answer in one word—-never. The meeting broke
up amidst immense cheering and enthusiasm.
ITALY.
It is stated that a collective note of the Powers
tliat signed the treaty of peace is about ready to ■
be fm warded to the Governments of Rome and j
Naples, recommending the reforms by Italian peo
-1 pie. It is also said that the Pope's legatee at Paris
has formally protested against Count Walewski’s
language in the Congress, and that the Papal Gov
ernment is preparing a detailed reply thereto. Il
is still further rumored that Naples will anticipate ;
’ the Powers’ remonstrance bv granting an amnesty ;
| on an expensive scale.
SPAIN.
Arrests of suspected persons continued at Bar
i celona. The conscription has passed off' quietly
I throughout the country.
DENMARK.
The Hanse towns have refused to adhere to the (
capitalization forced by Denmark on the question ,
of the dues. Considerable excitement was caused j
by an announcement that an American fleet was j
| oil the wav to Copenhagen.
AUSTRIA.
The Synod of Austrian Bishops held at Vienna |
is about adjourning, without having accomplished j
1 its objects.
THE CRIMEA.
The correspondence from the Crimea is up to j
April 26. It merely records the preparations for j
the departure, with the drilling and the P olishing 1
of the men with clothes, to make a good appear- )
ance on their return. Two regiments of English !
rivalry have already embarked at Scutari f< r ,
home.
TfRIET.
f JOisturbances continued id Turkish Asiatic Ter
riiorv, and there had been some excesses near Su- J
matra. There was nothing additional as to the
troubles at Nazareth.

Mr. Crampton’s Dismissal.
The dismissal of the British Minister—for that
event may as well be assumed, now that its cer
tainty has become apparent—is regarded with
vague apprehensions in commercial circles and bv
capitalists. Nobody, however, believes that war
is likely to ensue upon it. The objections urged
against Mr. Crampton are entirely personal. He
is held by the Administration to have violated our
laws; and although his own government, with a
laudable anxiety to shield the Ambassador from
rebuke, have listened indulgently to his exculpa
tion, the Cabinet at Washington persist in regard
ing him as an unacceptable representative, and
having in vain requested his recall, accept the un
gracious alternative of tendering him his pass
! ports. The British government will of course
j seek to vindicate its course on the question which
| has had this result, by an appeal to Parliamentary ;
j -support. But whatever be the verdict of the
, House of Commons, it is certain that thepredomi
i 'taut sentiment, both in that body and among the i
j people, is one of entire friendliness to the United ;
i ‘"States. And it is this sentiment which must con
■ ,r ‘d the government, and prevent it from any ex
| pression of resentment tending to the disturbance i
| of those relations between the two countries based !
upon the mutual benefit and advantage growing
i out of them.
If the dismissal of Mr. Craiupton should pro-I
voke that of Mr. Dallas, there the matter may be j
i expected to end, till a change in the persons cn
j trusted with the conduct of one or both of the i
; '. w o governments shall open away for the resump- I
tion of direct diplomatic intercourse. Meantime,
' any necessary communication from one to the •
| other may be made through the good offices of a
neutral legation.
The harmony which has met no interrup
tion since the peace of 1815, is not likely to
be seriously disturbed now. We have no unset
tled questions of boundary with Great Britain.
There prevails a common sentiment in America
and England in respect to the blessings of free
trade, and of the various instrumentalities adapt
ed to extend the freedom and frequency of com
munication and intercourse. Every advance in
wealth and productive resources on the part of
either, is felt in beneficial influences on both sides
the Atlantic. Neither has reason for jealousy of j
the other's influence, for its expansion only en- |
larges the field of commerce and diffuses the coin- j
forts of civilization, and it seeks no exclusive !
privilege. The people of both countries are in
tent on enjoying the fruits of a policy so recipro
tally advantageous, aud have no disposition to i
cut off the source of their bountiful supply I
while vet its treasures remain but partially de
veloped.
Occupied in the various pursuits that constitute
the industry of the most enlightened nation on the j
globe, intent upon the promotion of personal ob
i'-'ets, the accumulation of wealth and the bettering j
of their condition, it is of little moment to them
individually whether Mr. Crampton did or did
not intend to violate the laws of the United i
j States.
In comparison with the vast stake at issue upon !
the question of peace, one people is as ready to i
make atonement for, as the other is to forgive,’any
aggression which he may have sought to commit.
Beyond the circle of persons in power, there is no j
feeling of triumph here, or resentment there, ex
cited by the spectacle of this government expelling
the representative of that. The friendly relations
of the two countries are too closely intertwined lo
admit of the bond becoming loosened, even by an
unusual demonstration. The sentiment likely to '■
he excited, is one of regret that, in the judgment j
if the l nited States Executive, such a recourse j
_ should have been thought necessary to vindicate |
mr sovereignty and laws, ami a determination on 1
the part ot both people to prevent anv results in-;
lurious to the common prosperity and obstructive
of human progress.
There will ever exist a difference of opinion re
garding Mr. Crampton’s culpability. There are j
some among us who think that in the course be
pursued he expected to receive the concurrence of
public approval here, and that the object of his
Government in obtaining recruits could be accom
plished without violating our laws or infringing
upon our sovereign rights. Unassociated individ
uals are at perfect liberty to leave the United States
with the intention of taking military service
abroad, and it is a nice question in w hat way the
agent of another Government is at liberty to make
known here the terms on which his principal will j
enlist men, without subjecting himself to censure j
for hiring, retaining or enticing men to enlist, j
But whether Mr. Crampton be guilty or not of the
design imputed to him, he was restrained from ac
complishing his purpose while the offence was in
choate, and his Government has disavowed anv in
tention either to violate the laws or to infringe up
on the sovereignty of the United States. And in
both countries the sentiment i* unanimous, that
i there is no existing injury or grievance to excite
and keep alive a feeling of resentment in one
against the other; and that sentiment is sure to be
developed into practical manifestation, whenever a
well-founded apprehension shall point to the pos
sible iuptime of friendly relations, threatening a
fresh disturbance to the harmony of the world
and a lamentable check to the progress of Chris
! tia.nitv and the advancement of civilization.
Mr. Fillmore an Anti-Know Nothing in
i h.»:l
Whatever may be Mr. Fillmore’s present politi- j
cal affinities, since parties have taken a new turn !
and he has again become a candidate for the Pres- j
idency, there can be no question of his opposition
to the most essential feature of Know Nothingism
as late as March the 3d, 1853.
The danger arising from foreign influence in the
too early exercise of the right of suffrage, is the
loudest and most constant complaint we hear from
our opponents. While some are in favor of re
stricting naturalization to twenty-one years, many
ire desirous of repealing the laws of naturaliza
tion altogether; but the bare idea of an Irishman
or Dutchman being permitted to vote without any
naturalization at alt, is enough, ’twould seem in
ilia present temper of their minds to
“Harrow up their souls, freeze their blood ;
Make their eyes, like stars, start from their
spheres;
And each particular hair to stand on end.
Like quills upon the fretful porcupine.”
And yet, strange as it mar seem, this same Mil
an! Fillmore, tiieir recent nominee for President, I
and who, il is authoritatively stated, took all the j
oaths in the back room of a lawyers office in Buf
falo —this same Millard Fillmore, not further back
than March 3d, 1853, about a year after Donelson
was turned out of the Washington Union, approv
ed the admitting of foreigner* to n>Uand hold offer,
upon a simple declaration of their intention to be
come citizens, and the taking of an oath to support
ihe Constitution of the United State.
Lest some one should doubt our bare assertion,
the following is the clause from the act of Congress,
• organizingjthe Territory of Washington which Mil
; lard Fillmore, under a solemn oath of office, up-
I proved and signed on the 3d of March, 185.”.,
“That the right of suffrage and of holding of
fice shall be exercised only by citizens of the United
j States above the age of twentv-one years, and those
dhow that aye who shall hav declared on oath to sup
: port the Conxttiution of the United State* and the
provisions of this act.”
Such are the inconsistencies of this remarkable
political organization ! Such is the record of its
presidential candidate! Such its humbuggery,
and such its nonsense. It will be remembered that
Gen. Scott fell very much in love with the “rich
Irish brogue and the sweet German accent.”
Fillmore was very much chagrined at Scott for
I having obtained the nomination over him; which
■ tnav be the key to his sudden dislike to the Irish ■
: and the Dutch.
We will further remind our friends, that the j
clause fixing the qualification of voters and of i
I holding office in the Kansas-Nebraska bill, and I
j which is so violently assailed by the Know Noth- i
| ing party, is a literal copy of the above clause, ]
j that met and received the approval of Mr. Fill- j
: I more. Lei the people remember these things.

More about the Assault. ~~ ~
Washington*, May 23.—The Senate to-day ap
pointed a Committee, by ballot, to investigate the
circumstances attending the assault of Mr. Si m
nku by Mr. Brooks. The committee consists of
| Messrs. Cass, of Michigan, Dodge, of Wisconsin,
Allen, of Rhode Island, Geyep., of Missouri
Pearce, of Maryland.

) A Nut for the Know Nothings.—We have be
fure us a list of the members and officers of tlie
last Assembly of this State, with their places of
birth, Ac. There are one hundred and forty-nine
in all; a large portion of whom it will be remem
bered were elected as Know Nothings. Their
constituents will be amazed to learn that the only
man out of the whole partv, who was of Ameri
can parentage, was Francis B. Spinola, whose fa
ther was an Irishman, and mother an American.
Not one of the others was sprung from natives,
either on the father’s or mother’s side. The fa
thers ot the one hundred and fortv-nine were as
follows:
Englishmen, 80; Germany, 10; France, 6; Hol
; laud, 14; Scotland, 12; Ireland, 16; Wales, 9;
j Switzerland, 1; Italy, 1.
1 he mothers were of foreign birth (with the ex
i ception of Mr. Spinolai in about the same prnpor
j tion.
After this, we think the natives had best turn j
| their attention to new pursuits and principles. j

BLISS' DYSPEPTIC REMEDY.
OPINION OF A PHYSICIAN.
A PHYSICIAN in Southern Georgia. ( De- 1
catur county) of extensive practice and expe
rience, speaking of “ BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REM
EDY,’’ and from personal experience with its cura
tive properties, writes to the proprietor; “ 1 think
the sale of your Remedy in this section of country
will be immense.” It Is gratifying to the proprie
tor of the “ Dyspeptic Remedy” in this, as in nu
merous other instances, to have his statement to
the public, regarding his new preparation, so sanc
tioned and verified by members of high standing
in the profession. He has thus far abstained from
the hackneyed path of producing in the columns of
a newspaper the -sworn testimonials of the benefit
ted by liis prescription. Yet it would give him un
alloyed pleasure to afford the afflicted, (from Dys
pepsia . the assurances which he is daily receiving
of the prompt, unfailing success which, in every
instance, when due regard is paid to the treatment,
attends the taking of his medicine.
That there is no possibility of failure in producing
a speedy and permanent cure of Dyspepsia, even
j in cases of long standing, bv the “ Dyspeptic
I Remedy,” is the universal opinion in sections of
; the South and West, where it lias been extensively
! tested. Resting upon i:s growing popularity, the
‘ proprietor might content himself with the present
I and prospective success which augurs so favorably
this medicine’s attaining; a reputation and use
more extensive than any other preparation that has
been submitted to the public in a popular form,
hut he desires, knowing from sad experience what
; the sufferings of the Dyspeptic are, to afford him
or her not only temporary relief, hul the assurance
and realization of a permanent cure. This ” Rem
edy ” is for sale bv

or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis
eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir
tues from being impaired by age or climate, and
renders it very convenient for use.
Its action is prompt, and at the same time barm
less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara
tion injurious to the patient. This article, there
fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers,
Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles,
Erysipelas, Scald Head. Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt
Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Ilcat, Scurvy, Sore
Eyes, Done Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac.,
extract scurf and dandruff from the head, thereby
preventing premature baldness. It is also one of
the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and n il!
cure the Fistula aud Scratches in horses: extract
tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a
superior dentrifice to the teeth. For shaving soap,
it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and
curing such sores as may be on the face.
In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and
I particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm
! indeed, by its wonderful healing powers.
! I can procure certificates innumerable were it
> necessary, but believing that a single cake is only
requisite to prove its efficacy us above stated, and
wishing to avoid everything like luimbuggery, 1
leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not
doubting they will then declare this to be the ne
plus ultra of the age in the healing art.

fppilE undersigned having permanently located
" as Teachers, respectfully solicit the patronage
of their friends and the public generally. From
several years’ experience in teaching, and a con
stant attention to the duties of their profession
thev flatter themselves that the system of instruc
tion which they are now prepared' to give Students
pursuing a regular classical course, cannot be sur
passed by any similar Institution in the State. To
parents, therefore, designing to give their sons a
Collegiate education, their services are especially
tendered, since a thorough acquaintance w ith the
preparatory studies is indispensable to the Stu
dent’s progress throughout his whole course. Their
Academy Pupils will be prepared to enter the high
er classes of College, or if preferred, thoroughly
nstructed in a more practical and business course.
The accessibility, health and quietness of their
location—its freedom from scenes and causes oi
dissipation induce them to hope for a continuance
>f that liberal patronage, which for manv years
hey have not failed to secure.
A strict regard will be paid to moral training,
and the general deportment of each pupil carefully
observed.
The Academies for the Male and Female pupils
are separate—also, their Boarding Houses, w hile
the government, discipline, course of studies, &e
of both departments, will be under the control anil
supervision of the Principal.
Although not required, it is preferred that pupils
be boarded with the Teachers.
