thin* which i have said upon the authority ol tho
President, 1 demand that he produce a witness,
amiJjfTAO thallhe President tol l him so. It is
not surprising that the President should have
forgotten a part of what look place in Tennessee.
I wish he Could forget all these things—.ll that
tntnsmrpfl while he was in Tennessee. 1 envy
him .not his office who will run to the President,
liarruu him with goading rejections, and then
draw forth the hasty declarations el an exaspera
ted man, ta be usud for a hidden purpose. Tliis
is unaccountable, unless it is necessary to holster
up a poiilicnl uiininevset, about to l-e cut in the
jut e of a froxsmnff and indignant cutislitueti
(;t. Buck a limnecuvie could not, perhaps, he •
safety made without the benefit of the Pres
iistii s name lo give it sanctum. But, sir, 1
would always prefer a bold, open tioncel oppo- j
neat lo a tpy in the camp. These thulrful.
hetitiding, uexvs-cari'i/ing men are nut til lot
these times, and the sooner they mnlee an open i
desertion the better. »VV.» is ttto time for men '
to canty upon the stage, and act their parts; high
nun led men, who love liberty inaro than they do
gold; who love ojjice leas than they do honor.
tSuch * man, in a good cui.se, has nothing to
fear. My colleague, (Mr. D.) it would seem,
only wished an opportunity of manifesting his
zeal by filling the honorable cilice of trumpeter,
to P/esidepl’i denial in this House.
I am sorry tiii i the gentleman fixing his fancy
upon otlieVswd -then make his first appearance
in such .an office, as this. II the gentleman was
offended wills my remarks, why go to the Presi
dent I why not meet me ! why drag the Presi
dent in, and attempt to force an issue between
him and myself 1 why say that the President de
nied the whole, and then say lie will not he catch

fully made out hy those five undenied and unde

FREEDOM OF ELECTIONS.
, On Saturday, that distinguished and independ
ent representative ol an independent People, Mr.
Hell of Tennessee, gave notice of hi* intention lo
introduce » hill to secure "the freedom of elee
li.uis,” The flagitious conduct of Federal office
holders in inlerli ting with tint freedom of elec
tion*, renders lbs measuro indispensiihlo for the
proluclion of lint franchise, upon the pure exor
cise of which, all depends. Wo see in Virginia
comparatively little of office-holding interference
with elections, for happily ws have here but few
Federal office-holders; but in tho new .Stales
where there arc swarms of officers connected with
lint Land Department, and in the great seaports,
t.n; slaves of the Fc lerulfGovcnimci.t e..o.ci*c a
tremendous influence. They have much in their
power to embarrass or advance tint individual in
terest* of men, ami they use it to the utmost to
i-ecuro their own intcioals at court—for under
this Administration the bust elee.lioncererand the
most uimcinpulous pntrizan is the heat beloved
and the best rmvaidcd officer. Tho Federal of
fice-holders if it ho pus ought lo ho prohibit
ed from mcdling with elections —they ought lo
he liv'd up in tho severest penalties : it is ques
tionable it they ought lo ho u 1 nvod e'en to vote,
for their interest destroys their independence.
No man can really doubt that these office-hold
ing gentry have put an ol noxious IVsident upon
the people. Thu, President, himself tin active
e.o ■lio.utermg parlizan fur hi* favorite, Itis of
lieo-I.nliloi* through nit tho Union have followed
the example unworthily set them. It is impas
sible to calculate the influence which the iiinu
merahlo multitudes of Fedcrataiffiee-liolders ac t
ing upon i!m people directly or inditcetly, per
sonully or through the press, hnve exereised.—
Alaliumu, Afississippi and Louisiana, were car
ried lor Mr. Van iauien by tho land o/lieors. It
is well known that Rhode Island and Connecti
cut have been literally sold to the Administration
by post office and custom Douse aspirants. Em
bassies and judgships in the gift of the Executive
secured Virginia. In fine, substrav't tho iullu
,tin'll of the Federal office-holders, and the man
who pretends to say Unit Mr. Van Iturcn would
have boon elected President, is a foul or a willful
prevaricator.
Grant that wo tiro right in these opinions—
grant that wo might ho right—and every citizen
will perceive the groat propriety and uigenl ne
cessity of interdicting the meddling of Federal
office-holders with elections, under the severest
penalties. In the mass, they are the subjects of
the Government which feeds them, and its loyal
adherents. Right or wrong, it finds in them un
flinching and devoted panizans. Gratitude for
the past, or the hope of meriting future favor, en
slaves them to it* will.
Mr. Lull has taken hold of a great and impor
tant subject. Wo rejoice at it, and that it has
fallen into hands so competent, and bo parlieulat
ly acquainted with the atrocious abuses of tho
recent Presidential canvass. Ho can hope noth
ing from the House, hut he may hope much from
laying before the People the facts and reasoning
which demand the passage of Itis hill.

TEXAS AND MEXICO.
Tho relations of Texas ami Mexico form a
prominent topic of conversation mul imorm
among our citizens, us might reasonably have
been expected ut litis time, in consequence of
the Into message of General Jackson, and of
I Ito liberation and tour of Santa Anna.
JJ at there is yol another circumstance
which may materially affect those relations—
the return of Anastuste Bustamente to Mexi.
co, where ho hits not only been received in
triumph, but is probably, by this time, elected
tliij next President of tho Mexican Central
Republic, and proclaimed generalissimo of
the Mexico armies, it will he remembered
that not long since he was expelled from
Mexico, branded with infamy by Santa Anna
and it is now ascertained that in has turn, he
has banished Santa Anna and retorted the
compliments or charges of infamy.
in this manner, wo see Bustamente presi
dent, of the Mexicans, through the influence
of the Spanish party—priests mid aristocrats
and we may infer that us he is superior to
Santa Anna as a general, superior (if puss title)
in sanguinary feelings and superior in energy
anddiipl city, he may prove a more formida
ble enemy to Texas than this now exiled
monster, particularly as he may produce a
reaction in tho minds of the Mexican people,
and the feelings oftheir army with whom
Busiamonte Inis been a decided favorite, from
hts oft repealed largenescss.
It is reported that loans have already
heen raised to support his government: that
i ho will leave Mexico with an tinny amount,
ling to 10,000, when arrived at San Louis do
! I 1 ..lost; and that he has sworn extermination
i to all Texians.

Kimjulah Fatautt.—A DnKA.w.—OnSun
f day night but, a woikmun by the name of Cun
( ningham, who was employed in the glass factory
I of Mr. Seymour, Brooklyn, dreamed that he saw
. the clouds roll away in the sky—the heavens o
pening—and a being like the son of Man dc
l sccnding to the earth, surrounded with numerous
B spirits and angels. In the morning when he a
woke, he told hi* wife, Mi*. Cunningham, of his
t dream, and said lo her—“ Mv dear wife, Ido ho
. lieve lam called hence—l fed that my day is
H come.”
8 ** Oh ! now, husband !—why should you talk
. so? It is only a dream.”
, He resumed his composure—sat down lo
B hreakfist—cat silently with bis family, and then
n rone up tn go to hi* work. Before he left hi*
i apartment, he looked back and beheld his wife
l gazing after him. He immediately returned and
bid his wife on affectionate farewell—" Farewell”
1 said be “my children, for Ido believe I am called
j lienee, and shall never sec you again.”
His wild endeavored to smooth over tho grief
„ which preyed upon his mind m consequence of
the dream. ’Twouhl not do. He went to his
. work at Mr. Seymour’s factory. lie was atten
tive as usual, but extremely depressed in spirits.
Hut the denouement came at last. In tho middle
of the afternoon he was caught by the machine
ry, and his whole body torn to pieces.
This singular incident is exactly line in every
particular. We had the facts yesterday from a
gentleman who received them from Mr. Seymour
1 himself. Os it* truth there is no doubt. A great
excitement is created in Brooklyn. Can any
philosopher or divine explain tne phenomenon
of his dream—his presentiment of death—hi*
feelings—or the sad catastrophe? Will Profes
sor Wllimnn, or any other savail go and examine
Mr*. Cunningham and her children ! It should
ho inquired into.

[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.]
WASHINGTON CITY, }
Jan. 15th, 1537. 5
Since 1 last wrote to you tile Tariff ami the
expunging Resolutions, have been the engross
ing subjects—the former in the House the lat
ter tit the Senate. I stated to you, that not'
withstanding the flourishes, some of the party
make about Free Trade and the elaborate, an
ti-tariff report, that accompanied the bill, to
reduce the revenue, at its introduction, that
nothing would be, nothing ivus ’meant to be
done. The result so far, shows the justness
of this opinion. The bill has been put to rest
for tho present. It has been referred to the
Committee of the Whole ! whercMr. Cambre
lingand his allies know perfectly well, that itis
as secure from all decisive action,as if it were at
tho bottom of tiie Sea. But let me continue the
history of the proccedingsjonthe measure which
I began in my last. Mr. Corwin, one of the
minority of the Committee of Ways and Means,
spoke onThursd.iy, on the general subject, and
against the principles of the Report, and the
provisions of the Bill. It was a most power
ful and instructive speech —on the whole more
valuable than any speech of this Session. The
theme he urged with most eloquence & fervor
was xan invioi.-Uiii.itv or t:ie compromise.
The effect of this part of his speech, was evi
dently immense. He completely enchained
the attention cf the whole house. The Rep
resentatives of the South and West crowded
around him, and from what was dropped by
several of them at the time, and what 1 have
since learned, I am convinced there is not one
Southern or Western man on the opposition,
and who represents tiie planting interest, who
will not oppose the bill to tis viribus. They
i believe the purpose of the framers of it is to
makca Dkmonstuationo.n I’hotecti on, to car
ry out tho policy of Mr. Van Buren, announc
ed in that memorable declaration that “he
| would carry the South by fallingin with South
| ern Measures” —and they are determined, as
far as in them lies to put down this part of his
system, of governing hy delusion and excite
jiicut. After Mr. Corwin took Itis seat, Cush
i man ofN. 11. a mere partisan, arose and talked
; Anti-Tariff for anhourand more, and to get
the ignorant to believe that the .party are in
earnest about reducing the Revenue, express
'cd tlv hope that the President would call an
, extra Stsiloi: of Congress for the purpose 1
• j of passing this bill!—in case the present Cot:-
*! (press should not have lime to set upon it.”
I After a little more trik, Mr. Mulcnberg one ol
Van Huron's most servile tools moved to i.ay
| toe Hi 1,1 os TRiTAuiL ! This is to get favour
I in the high Tariff State of Pennsylvania. Mr.
} Cambrelcng and Mr. Mann grew highly indig
t nunt of course,’ as had been previously arrang
ed ; but the House took up and went to din
) tier, leaving matters in this state. Next day
the subject was resumed ; aad the first move
ment convinced me that the bill was not in
tended to be passed. Mr. Lawrence a Bep
■ resentative of Boston, who moved the indefin
’ ite postponed on Thursday, withdrew that
r motion, and made the proposition to refer to the
• Committee of the Whole. The strongest Tarifl
man in the House and those pretended to be most
1 anxious forlhopussageofthe Hill,includingCam
, breling A all the most prostrate psitisansofihe rua
• gician aided in voting for the reference. In vain
1 were several mjcccssivo efforts made to have the bill
made the general order for a particular day.—
They all failed. Why, because should it bo made
i the special order, theicavould be some prospect
1 of its being pasted at the present session. Hut
\ in the Committee of the Whole there is no such
danger. It will not lie touched, hut for the pur
pose of being interposed perhaps to prevent the
passage of another Distribution Hill, Mr, Clay’s
r Land Hill, or .some oilier meas ure which would
■ reduce the amount of public money under the
control of the party’s leaders. It will be kept
alive hut sleeping. In the meantime the Report
of Cambreleng will be scattered over the whole
Anti Tarilf region, as lire exposition of Mr. Van
Huron’s opinions, and demagogues and slaves will
rise up and proclaim that lie was prevented from
carrying out that policy, by the Federalists and
Whigs.” Your answer will he ready and at
hand however. If the party wish to reduce the
revenue why dent they do itl They have a
majority in both brandies. Why send the bill
to the Committee of the Whole. The Speaker
decided that it was not necessary to give it
that direction—but the party were resolved that
it must go that way. They were so anxious it
should not ho made a law, that they were deter
mined to send it to the only quarter where it can
never ire heard of more !
The debate on Expunging was highly inte
resting. Mr. Crittenden’s speech was one of the
noblest ever hoard within the walls of the Capi
tol. In wit—in withering sarcasm—in powerful
and lofty declamation, it lias few parallels in the
records of eloquence. Mr. Preston’s speech too,
on Friday, was most splendid and impressive.—
Uoih these gentlemen spoke like American Sena
tors filled with uncontrollable and unutterable
emotions at the thought of the disgrace which is
soon, I fear, to he brought upon the body of
which they are members. Their impassioned
and indignant appeals produced a deep impress
ion on the Senate and the crowded auditory.—
'The more considerate and honorable men of the
Administrrtion party felt them—even the Expun
gers themselves seemed for tiie time abashed and
alfcctcd with the sacrilegious character of the
act they contemplated performing. It was ex
pected on Friday that (lie order would be given
for execution!—for execution of the Senate’s
journals—for execution of tho constitution—for
execution of the dignity and independence of
tho Senate. Mr. Preston was roused to the high
est degree of intellectual power by the considera
tion, and die was at times sarcastic and scorching
in the extreme. Rives was touched too quick by
some indignat allusions of Preston’s to tho de.
goncracy of Virginia, and arose and undertook to
vindicate his Stale. But he was so much excit
ed that he could scarcely speak. He poured out
a torrent of wrath against the opposition, railed
against the Bank, tho Aristocracy, &c. &c., like
any foul mouthed demagogue addressing a set of
bull-headed clod-compcllcrs, and took his seat
amid tho disgust of his audience. Preston re
plied with great spirit, and Rives rejoined. It
was growing late, and several motions were made
to adjourn, but the majority steadily refused.—
Mr. Calhoun then rose and spoke for a few mo
ments with great solemnity and impressiveness.
Again the motion to adjourn was renewed, and
this time it prevailed. Mr. Clay lias the floor.
The Committee of inquiry into Whitney’s
ease arc steadily and actively procuring their in
vestigations. Tito report will not, however, bo
made for some time. M.

How sweet to leave tho busy world,
it's pageantry and show,
And all it's empty mockeries,
And seek the heart we know
Can vibrate on tho selfsame chords
That our own bosoms thrill,
And feel that should the world forget,
There's one will love us still!
'Tis sweet to thiak there's one we love,
And one that loves us too,
Who feels, and hopes, and sighs with soul
As our own true one true —
'Tis here disserauiations mask
Securely wo let fall,
Unbosoming tho heart's secrets,
It's weaknesses, and all!
'Tis sweet to toll the heart’s secrets;
And oh ! ’tis sweet to hear
The secret thoughts of one we bold
Unto out bosom dear! —
'Tis sweet to meet with sympathy
That our own sorrows move,
And Ob ! 'tis sweet to sympathize
With one wo dearly love. E. A. E.
