"WASHINGTON, April 10, 1838. It was supposed thaf.Mr. Hamer would make another attempt in the House, this morning, to have the rub- suspended, for the purpose of offering his resoluti a of censure upon the administra tion; but it was done..

SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER. The April No. of the r oimh Volume of this excellent Literary periodical, published in Rich mond, Va. hay come to hand. It abounds, as it always does, w ith tiu most interesting Iterary pro ductions calculated to improve the mind aud at tract the attention of its readers, it is a work of which the South may well he proud, ana to its able Editor and Proprietor she is .greatly in debted for rescuing Loin almost total annihilation Southern Literatus e. We would respectfully re commend the Messenger to the patronage of the Southern public, with the assurance that they can not be otherwise than agreeably disappointed in the character and ability of the work. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. It is the inteniion of a portion of the citizens of Florence to organize a Sabbath School, in order that the youth of our town may derive the bene fits which invariably flow from such an institution. We would earnestly invite the attention of our citi zens, aud especially tlr ladies, to this praise -wor thy undertaking, ami solicit tor u,<; same their aid and assistance. Nothing, wc venture to say, w-puld be more heueiioial to tl:e moral improve ment of the children of tills town and vicinity than this school, —let those then, having the care of children and the responsibility of raising them, discharge the duty imposed op them, by seeing that they attend the e: I .col. A meeting of t- friends of this Institution \vl!i be held iuthe Church next Sabbath, at 9 o’clock, A. M. when all who fed any interest in the matter are respectfully solicit?;-] to give their attendance. TiE BRIDGE. We would earnestly invite,the attention of the citizens of Florence, and the surrounding coun try, especially those more particularly inter ested in the advancement and prosperity of our town, to the necessity of bail uiig a Bridge across the Chattahoochee at this place. It is folly to -lumber over tills matter, for every reflecting mind must see, at the first glance, the actual need of a bridge and the incalculable advantages that would accrue to Floreyee. Alabama is last set tling up by wealthy and persevering farmers, the lands are rich and fertile, and in a few years a very large quantity of cotton will be made in that sec tion of Alabama which lays contiguous to this place, ail of which will, if a bridge is completed, undoubtedly come to Florence, and w irh it will come an immense trade, which will greatly ad vance the interests of our young ami nourishing town; •but unless this desirable object is effected this cotton and trade will be taken, almost from under our very eyes, either to Golumbcs or Irwin ton. But apart from these immense advantages, there afe others which call loudly for the completion of this work. This is the most direct route from MJledgeville and Mae on to Montgomery and oth er cities of the West, and could this work be ef fected there most unquestionably would be a daily mail fi.om the East, ru liiing directly through -this place, which would make it a complete tho rough fyre, and advance the interest of the place and every thing connected w ith it. With every thing star mg us in the face—our interest with a beckoning hand inviting ns to its ad vancement and pointing to this work, will we lie still and have every thing snatched from us of a beneficial tendency ? Will we stop our ears to the calls which peal upon them? Will we shut our eyes to the light that shines so forcibly ? We think not. We believe we have men at the head ol affairs here, wlio know their duties and w ill promptly discharge them. GEN. JESTTF. From the Official Order, issuing from Head- Quarters, and published in another part of today’s paper, our readers will see that the management of the Florida War has again changed hands, and J.esup called home to re-enter upon the discharge us the duties of Quarter Master General. We never think of this War but our pride is humbled to the very dust, and our contempt aug mented towards those vvho have had the exclusive control of the matter, and particularly the late commander. Perhaps the failure of Gen. Scott should ba overlooked, considering (lie many diffi culties against which he had to contend: The en emy fresh and more powerful, the country un known and many parts never before trodden by civiliz-d man, and the necessary facilities be yond bis reach. But for Jesup we can offer no such apology,—he has ha-J no such difficulties in THE GEORGIA MIRROR. his way. lie liad the plans and of those who had preceded him open to his observa tion, every inch of tbo enemy’s land was well known, mul tiieir thickest and most dismal hidirtg places penetrated and scoured, erery facility at his command mat, the heart of iuau t ouU desire to en able him to operate successfully against the enemy and maintain the honor of his country's arms, yet with all these, and many other, ydvontages he fins made a total, complete failure. \\ cek alter week we read of “more murders,” committed by the hands of the ruthless savages, who go un punished and very frequently uupursued, and even w hen pursu and and overtaken, with the blood of the helpless female aud innocent babe still dripping from their hands,. have been begged by Jesup to “come in,” and afterwards suffered to escape, again to spread death aud devastation through the land. But we rejoice, and fed that we have cause to rejoice, that Jesup has teen recalled at last, and hope that the honor of our country may yet be re trieved through the instrumentality and bravery of Gen. Taylor, who now has the command ol this uufortuuate war, without the loss of any more lives or the expenditure of any niorc*of the peo ple’s money. Gen. Jesup retires from the scene of action, to live upon the country Ue has disgraced aided and supported by Mr. Van liuren and his •larasites, with the blood of innocence upon Iris skirts, followed by the curses ajid execrations of an injured and ivdjgnaM nation, to suffer the tormeh ti.igs us a guilty arid disapproving conscience. O TRUTH, iJC W ART THOU FORSAKEN ? The following Resolutions were p.. *ved at a meeting t>f the sclf-slyjeni “Republican l ,J -’ party” of Harris county, and published in the Co lumbus Sentinel and Herald of the Jfltli inst. “Resolved, That modem Whigism is .a.grand coalition o (Federalism ut?d Abolitionism —t!:efor- mer at war with the Constitution, and a foe to flue best interests of the country ; the latter a mocke ry of Religion, a burlesque up-.m philanthropy, and adisgra.ee to humanity ; aud th«: these are the element? combined for the overthrow m the great Republican doctrines advocated by the present Ad ministration. “Resolved , That those who oppose the Repub lican doctrines of the present Administration, are either directly or indirectly giving countenance and support to the several tVeaons which consti tute modern whigism." We cannot find words sufficient to express our surprise and indignation at the language held fiiitli in these resolutions, and so fa- the State ’ Rights party of the South is coir erned, Ucir as sertions are unjust, untrue ini' auy men who make pretensions to .n:lh mtd'dsrm v lt is evidently the design of the authors of these resolutions to make tire public believe that ai| those opposed to the “Republican doctrines of the present administration!!" are not only Feder alists but Abolitionists, and there being a large por tion of the Southern people, yea, a majority of them, opposed to these “ Republican V doctrines, they, too, must be included in these broad and sweeping assertions. Wc, then as a part off the Southern people, who are not only opposed to the leading measures of the prescut but past admin istyation of the General Government, would hurl back this insulting language in the face of its au thors with disdain and contempt. What! the friends of State Rights in the South either Fed eralists or Abolitionists? Examine every tenet of their faith—pry into every action of the party front the days of Thomas Jefferson down to the-present, and nothing can be found that will go to- justify these base and slanderous, assertion, but oti the contrary, every thing to prove them salsa, and doubly false. But we areaccuse.l of Fcderalistn and Abolition ism because we oppose th; leading measures of a Missouri Restrictiouist; because wt wage up airfare against the friend and advocaje of Free Negro suffrage; because we do battle against one who has acknowledged the power of Uongnsss to abol ish slavery inthe District of Columbia; because we rise up in opposition to the arm w hich is put forth to grasp the purse strings as the sword ot ihe nation; in ; because we opposed to ma ny other doctrines and measures wbbih are alike dangerous to Southern institutions, dangerous to the Consitution, and to the existence of our hap py Union. How much more appropriately would the charge of Federalism and Ab- I' lionism apply to,those who are the advocates ami supporters of these doctrines which we so strenu >usly oppose ? We do not feel disposed to recriminate, neither will we insinuate that the whole Union party are the knowing and wilful supporters <of these danger ous measures, because we conscio itiously believe that should these doctrines ever be inthe ascen dant, or Congress ever be ruled by an Abolition dynasty that should attempt to infringe upon the rights of the Southern States, a large portion of them would very soon be fotujd in our ranks. But we do not believe this of many of their leading characters, the powers which a large portion of them acknowledge to the Federal Government give to Congress an absolute control over every State, and if they cling to that doctrine in the hour of Abolitionism, (if that hour should ever come,) they will be compelled to yield all uncon ditional submission. But have not the acts of their Representatives in Congress, not tended, either directly or indirectly, to advance the views and intentions of these Abo litionists, by voting in Congress for the reception of their insulting and dangerous petitions ? They have; and the journals of tf!e House will bear testimony to the truth of this assertion. We are of opinion it would be b“st for those of the Van ' Buren party, who are irfthe habit of making these unfounded assertions in relation to their opponents, particularly those of the South,’to reflect upon tlie old but trite adage—“those who live in glass houses should be cautious how they cast stoues.” We shall let this suffice for the present, b vcv, ing tlwt the hoqest and independent of all parties will look uppn t’ne above resolutions with con tcni pt and treat them as their character desert ps. TJ,e e!ccti?m for Mayor of the City of New York lias terminated in favor of the Whigs, Aaron Clark having been elected by a majority of 202 votes.

Reply—Well you are ad -d hard and heavy set, take care or you’ll go to the bottom. Our neighbors of the Sentinel and Herald think that should Gen. Nelson’s command pass through Milledgeville, Gov. Gilmer will be made to read awful lessons in their appearance. Well, may be so; but it strikes us if jn the flush ;‘nd spirits of their departure, they were ‘unable to frighten him into the violation of tlie Constitution, they would stand a poor chance to do it now, after killing all the Seminoles in Florida. We thought at first, that theseouen were going where they could do no good, that there were already more soldiers at (he seat of war than were of any use, and that Jesup only received Gen. Nelson’s command into ser vice, to gratify his feelings and give cause of com plaint against the Governor. The event has prov ed vhc truth of our suppositions. They went, and although mustered MRo service, have, from the nature of the case, been unable to do any thing, fl’liis was not their fault, but the fault of those who unnecessarily dragged them to Florida. Mr. Gilmer knew all this, and in liis veto Message recommended them to return home. Was he not right in this? Are they not sorry that they did not take his advice?
