Tm: Mi:ss.-icE.—Our readers will find the
columns of the. Gazette nearly filled with the
President's’ message. Vile awaited its receipt
until Friday last. Since that time the Whole
~~ week's work of the paper has been accomplish-
ed, which left us very few leisure moments.
The reader will, therefore. tuake up his initid
on its character without any assistance from us.
The severity of the storm on Friday, Satur-
day and Sunday preceding the openingofCori—
gress delayed the organization of that body
for want of a quorum.
detained on the read within a few hours ride of
Many members were
the capital by reason ofthe large quantities of
snow that fell on Sunday the 5th. On Tuesday
a quorum was formed in the House, but not in
the Senate, which of course prevented the trans-
action of any business. Mr. J. Q. Adams start-
ed on his abolition course, by introducing a reso-
lution for the repeal ofthe rule oftlielast session
in reference to anti-slavery memorials.
On Vtlcdnesday. the Senate at length formed
a quorum. Vice President Johnson had not ar-
rived, and Hon. \Vm.R. King. President pro
lam. took the chair. About 1 o'clock the usual
.messages of form were interchanged, announc-
ing that the two Houses were organized and
readyto receive communications; due notice of
which was transmitted to the President by com-
mittees. ' I '
In the House on Werlnesday the Speaker
'took the chair at 12o'clcick, and about two-thirds
_of the members answered to their names. The
usual formalities ofopening the sesssion were
despatched. Newspapers for the members were
ordered, and a resolution for the election of
Chaplains agreed to. The hour of 12 was fixed
for the daily meeting ofthe House until further
orders.
Mr. I. Q. Adams now called up his resolution
for rescinding the rule made last‘ winter, by
which all petitions and memorials relating in
any manner to slavery are thenceforth rejected
without any action or hearing whatever.
Mr. Jenifer of Md., moved that the resolution
of Mr. A. do lie on the table.
After some brief observations by Messrs. Ad-
atns, Jenifer and Banks of Va., Mr. L. \Vil-
liams ufN. C.suggested that the House was
now thin, "and even the mover (Mr. VV. Cost
Johnson),ot_' thg resolution of last winter, was
not pr‘e‘sent.,§.'He therefore trusted that this im-
portant proposition would not be pressed until
there should be it full attendance ofmembers.
A postponement was carried—Ayes 82. Nocs
53. At halfpast Io"clock, the Committees hav-
ing waited on the President,the annual message
was received in the Senate bythe hand of Mr.
A. Van Buren,Private Secretary, and in the
House by Mr. H. A. Garland, Clerk.
I Till-‘. BOROUGH tVIi~:a't‘iim.—Tlie friends of
the “protective system" must bear in tnind the
Borough meeting which takes place at 2 o'clock
this (Tuesday) afternoon. The necessity of
a new and more powerful engine, no one ac-
quainted with the circumstances of the late fire
will deny, and the most just, equal and practic-
- able method of obtaining one, it seems to us, is
by.meaas of taxation. Let the vote be such an
one as will leave little room for grumbling.
Anoriian Aniu-:s'r.--A fellow by the name
of Frank Hager, was arrested last week near
the village of Port Chester, suspected of hav-
ing been instrumental in firingthe stables ofthe
Norwalk Hotel. Hager was once employed
as hostler, by Mr. Stevenson, and was scena-
bout the premises on the night of the fire under

his examination. evidence appeared sufiiciently
strong against him to commit him for trial. He
was once before arrested near Danbury, but set
at liberty again without an examination.
Abra/tam Swg/dam, Esq. President of the
Farmers and Mechanics’ Bank, at New
Brunswick, N. J. on the morning ofthe 3d
inst. went from his residence to the Bank,
which he shortly left, informing the Cashier
that he should go to church, it being the day
for Thanksgiving in that State. He has nei-
ther been seen nor heard of since that time.
The opinion is that he has met an accidental
death ; the Mayor offers one hundred dollars
reward for his recovery.
The sudden disappearance of Mr. S. has
created so much apprehension that the brok-
ers refuse to buy the bills at more than about
half their face. The broker agent of the
Bank who has been redeeming the bills in
New York at 2 1-2 per cent discount, has re-
ceived orders from the Bank to redeem no
more.

S. C. was knocked down and run over by a
railroad train on which he was traveling
through Virginia to VVashington. The train
being impeded by a heavy snow, he had got
‘ out and was walking ahead, when on coming
to a descent, the cars noiselessly came up
with, knocked down, and passed right over
him; yet, wonderfully enough, without in-
flicting any serious injury!

IMPORTANT FJ;’.O.\I MEXICO.
It will be recollccted that on the defeat of
the Federal army at Morelos in l\iat'ch l.-ist,
Canales, Molano, and Cardenas, escaped to
Texas, where they were hospitably treated
by the people. After failing to engage the
Texan government in lhcit’ plans in Mexico,
they persuaded a number of the youth of
Texas to join them in an invasion ofthe
country, holding out the hope of an easy
ma rch to the city of Mexico, then in a state of
revolt. On arriving at Rio Grunde, it was
ascertained that the. revolution ingthe capital
bad proved a failure. This produced a se-
cret consultation among the Federal chiefs.
to buy peace with the doininent faction at
home by an act of pcrfidy to their foreign
allies.
It appears by letters recently received at
N. Orleans that the rcsultof the conference
was that the '1':-xziiis were decoyed into the
interior as far as Victoria, and delivered to
Gen. Montego. I Here on the 23d, they
were abandoned to the enemy, five timestheir
number, whose intention it was to shootthem
in cold blood. But it seems that the inten-
tions of the s-ivage murderers have been
frustrated and a most righteous retribution
has suddenly overtaken them. Mr. Edmund
Dwyer, from Texas, brings the following
particulars, which are abundantly confirmed
by letters subsequently received.
Mr. D. was only six days from Sim Anto-
nio to Houston. and on thejonrneypnt tip at
a house where Col. -Jordan (the commander
of the 114 Texizins whom the Mexicans had
planned to murder) had just before stopped
for refreshment.
Mr. Dtvyer learned, and has no doubt of
the correctness of the information, that when
the Texians became convinced of the inten-
tions and treachery ofthe Mexicans, they re-
tired by themselves to a walled enclosure in
the vicinity, determined to face the worst.——
At this time the citizens of the place, consid-
ering the contest at_an end, opened their
houses and shops and gave the soldiers what-
ever they wished to eat or drink. The Coll-
sequence was, that they got beastly drunk;
and in this situation they were ordered by
their commander to attack the outlets, (as
the Texians were termed.) The battle cem-
meiiccd about 2, I’.1tl. and lasted near nine
hours. The Texians were well protected
from the fire of the assailants——and were
moreover well armed and abundantly suppli-
ed with ammunition.
The result was, that the ignorant and in-
toxicated cowards who assailed them, inca-
able"ofinflicting injury, were slaughtered
on all hands. At this juncture, the besieged
sallied forth and captured three pieces of ar-
tillery, which they turned upon the enemy,
and mowed them down like grass. More
than four _hu7zJ.recl of the treacherous foes
were left lifeless on the ground on that night,
by this small branch ofthe Anglo-Saxon race.
The Texians having cleared the field, sup-
plied themselves with app:irrel(ofwhich they
were much in want) and other spoils of vic-
tory,and commenced their march liomeward,
and pursued their way without molestation-—
having lost only four companions killed in
the fight, and one who died from disease.
It is reported. and generally believed, that
Arista has granted permission to the compa-
ny of Goliad, (who are all "desperate men,
and no better than robbers,) to make incur-
sions on the frontier of Texas. to pillage,
murder and burn, and that all and every
thing they may bring from Texas (robbed)
is to be entered free of duty.
Opc-mtioizs in Fl0rida..—A letter from
General Armistead, dated Fort: King, Nov
24, gives this account of his proceedings :-—
The whole army is now and will remain
in pursuit ofthe enemy. Every inducement
is, however, held out to them to treat. The
bands of Halik Tustenuggee and '1‘iger-tail
are pursued by a detachment ofthe 2d infan-
try. Thc 7th are now’ in the field. The
dragoons, of which six companies are now
on the upper St. John, are actively employ-
ed in that section. The 8th regiment leaves
this morning for Tampa, scouring the coun-
try on the route, embracing the Waboo
and other hiding places on the \Vithlacoo-
chie. The 6th regiment is in the country
between the Hillsborough and the VVithla-
coachie. The 1st regiment is scouting along
the Gulf shore below Tampa, with boats,
accompanied by a steamer and two schoon-
ers. _
I have deemed these movements necessa-
ry,’ as the entire bands of the enemy have
confined themselves to the swamps and a-
long the coast, from whence they make pre-
datory excursions; and it is there, and there
alone, that they can be most annoyed.

_Thirty-eight metnbers of the Senate, who
under the pressure of the previous question,
were forced to vote against resolutions, op-
posing a Tariff for protection. a National
Bank, and Internal Improvements by the
Federal Government, state in “a Protest,”
their opposition to all but a National Bank,
on which they remark E
VVe believe a National Bank a necessary
and”proper means to be used by the‘,,Gcnera
Government in the collection, transfer, and

was so far gone that I could not articulate above
a whisper. and I feared my voice was gone en-

: Rev. 1. COV'¢l'l’§ Balm of Life;
l A New and highly approved remedy for the
r above. and all kindred diseases—r-xten-
sively used and recommended by the ]l1a't'cal
Faculty, to whom the recipe has been freely
made known. It has also been used witligieat
advantage in Dyspepsia, and other similar dis-
eases of the Liver and Slomacli.
The proprietor of this medicine, having wit~
nessed, with much pain. the great and increas-
ing ilestriiction ofthe life and health ofso trian-
y of his fellow beings by Consumption. Bron-
chitas, and the various and numerous other dis-
eases ofthe Lungs and \Vindpipe. was induc-
ed todircct his attention and inquiries to the dis-
covery of a more efficacious remedy than has
heretofore been presented to the public.
\Vith much care combination and study, he
has prepared a medicine, which he now presents
to an intelligent and discernizzg public. with the
utmost confidence in its virtue and success in the
cure ofthe diseases for which it is l'8C0mfll€l]d-
ed-—nnd wliicli he is willing to submit to the
most scrutinizing test of the Medical Faculty,
and to rest its reputation upon their decision.
It contains no ingredientsthat can impair the
constitution under arty circumstances. It will
found greatly serviceable in colds, coughs, and
all diseases of the Lungs, and Bronchin, such as
Phtliisic, Asthsnia, \Vliooping cough, Croup,
acute and chronic Iullamations of the Lungs
and Vtlindpipe.
By the Dyspeptic it has been used ,wiih decid-
ed advantage, and is serviceable to persons la-
boring under debility of any kind, if used ac-
cording to the directions. To the consumptive,
it has invariably afforded almost immediate re-
lief. and in several instances has wrought al-
most a permanent ctire. It is not, however, ex-
pected to effect a cure upon such as arein the last
“stages of the- disease; but even to such it will
SHARES "f ‘be Callllal Sm‘-‘li "ll:-L-.-e---foitntl to give much relief and greatly pio-
longthat remnantof life which has become so

come acquainted with its nature and effect, a-
mong which are the following :
“I have examined a recipe for a compound

Rev] Covert 2 My Dear Sir-—In referenceto
your medicine, I deem it my duty to state that
I had for a long time been afflicted with a chro-
nic bronchitas, and its usual accompaniments;
and was induced to try your preparation, on the
assurance from medical men that it contained no
hazardous ingredients.
The result has been the allaying febrile irrita-
tioas, and the gradual restoration of healthy func-
tions to the throat, sothat I am enabled to return
to the labors of the desk.
I think the medicine entitled to the attention
of all persons similarly affected.
