TH‘!-I 'Li,br:Nsn.Qui:srrioiv—-.icAiN.—Our arti-
ticle of lagit week, on this subject, it appears,
was not well received by some of the more ar-
debt of our temperance friends, and they have
assayed to show that we were in error. Others
took it dill'erent‘l y. Some of those whom we have
been accustomed to look upon as the fast friends.
of the teiiiperance cause, and who are identified‘
with the leading temperance organizations of
the day, have endorsed our sentiments in the
main, and assented to a belief in thetruth of our
statements. Notes of assent and dissent have
greeted us from various quarters and persons.
This shows at least, that there is a differcrence
-—an honest ditTerence, we c0nclude——0f opinion
among the friends of temperance, as to the ac-
tual position of the cause, and the best means of
its advancement. For both these clases we en-
tertain feelings of deference and respect, and we
cannot see any good ground of offence in a simple
statement of facts, as _tli.ey have appeared to our
E3.
Sam’l Ricliardson,of this place was arrested,
‘end examined before John A. \Veed, Esq., on
Ffidiiy last, on a charge ofpassing spurious two
shilling pieces. A number of witnesses were
examined, but as nothing appeared to fix guilt
upon the prisoner, he was discharged.
It was shown, however, that some three or
four pieces of the kind of coin alluded to, had
been in the possession, and bandied about by a
ciiicle in which Richardson moved,- and that a
for its miinufacture had been seen carelessly
lying about the shop where. this circle were in
the habit of resorting. and throw into the creek
by one of the number. A black fellow living
with Capt. Peck, swore that three of the
pieces had been passed upon him in the course
of one evening, while visiting this and two or
tlirce other similar shops.
Mississirri.—Gen. IIe_i-iPy_STFoote, was on
the 10th elected U. S. Senator for six years
from the 6th of March, 1847, and Hon. Joseph

ate term. F oote received 93 votes—the entire
' Loco-Foco strength—Cl‘ialiners 96.
A CIIANCE FORINVES1‘MEN'l‘.—-The property
mind, or evidence-= of a want of fidelity to t1ie_
telltpertyiee reform. It. is complained, that the
asyzfiiim, that “the sluices are again opon” is -
.-"'u-ntriie, and that, if it were true, a statement to
that effect would be productive of evil to the '
cause. Now, with regard to the first complaint, A
we should be very happy to find that we were
in error, and that intompcrance, and the traffic:
in the means of producing it, were swept from.
the land. It is not, however, so. we have ta- _
ken seine pains to obtain information on this
subject, since our last issue, from the towns
which were then alluded to, and the result con- ‘
firms, substantially, the truth of what has been
stated. The taverns are selling as usual, with-
in which the Gazette Office is situated, and oc-
cupied iii part by Frederick St. John, it will be
seen, is to be sold at public auction, on the 11th
inst. The property is valuable for iiliiiost; any
kind of business, but peculiarly so for some
branches, possessing advantages enjoyed by no
other in the place. Captalists will do well to
give it their attention.
DANnUar.—-—Tlie license commissioners in
Danbury have licensed five taverners to sell
spirits, wines, &c. on conditions that none be
, sold to minors, or to iincinperate persons, or to
any person on the Sabbath, except stangers and
boarders——and they have licensed seven retail-
ers, on condition that they do not allow any sales

IMPORTANT FROM RRAZIL AND
\Vith a desire, sincere and honest, we thiiik,- -
for the permanent advance ofthe cause of tem- <
perance, we can see no sufiicient reason for
shu-tting our eyes to the actual position of things, i
however disagreeable they may be. IVlieii the -
Commissioners are pursuing one course, and E
an important portion of ‘the citizens another, we ,
hazard but little in concluding what the result‘
will be. True, the penalty annexed to the
breach of law may be exacted, but what good!
result will grow out of it, if that exaction is not,
aus_tained——-if a majority of the electors, should_
see fit at a subsequent ineeting, to refund suclil
fine, which we are assured on the best of tes-
timony, would be.done in some-of the towns to ,
which we have alluded in case of taverners ? If
we can't at't'ain"a desirable object at once, we,
hold: to the force of an homely adage, that “a,
half a leaf is better than no bread-.”_ That mea-
sure, or course of policy which secui"e's but a
partial good, is generally.‘ far better than thati
which with the best of intentions, aims at the,
entire accomplishment of an object, but fails of A
effecting anything.
\Vith regardto the law of the last session ,.
there is not any very strong ground of objection. I
It is entirely democratic in its inception, and on ,
that account must. seal the lips of many politi-
cal cavailers. All the difficulty in administering
‘it, arises from a mistaken estimate of public sen-
timent, aiid the action of the commissioners bas-
ed on that estimate. The motives of these gen- '.
tleinen, so far as our knowledge goes, are pure ‘
and patriotic, and the desires and efforts to at-
tain a good object, should free them from
censure.
Allen, the Ohio blusterer, meets with the rub-

point, by John C. Calhoun, he had the misfor-
tune‘ on Monday last, to fall into the hands of
Senator Clayton.
The Ohio gentleman called up from the table,
his motion for leave to bring in his Joint Reso-
-lution, on the Interference of Foriegn Powers
in the affairs Of this Continent, and asserted that
it was an administration measure.
The Senator from Delaware upon this arose
and protested against such sudden changes in
the Democratic creed, and read extracts from
the records of Congress, which showed that in
1826, Mr. Polk and Mr. Buchanan both took 11
directly opposite ground. This expose made
Mr-Allen feel very much like a used upman, and
the feeling was so plainly visible that Mr. Aliens’
self complacency forsook him, and there is some
reason to believe, that if the offer had been just
then made, he would have sold himself for about
cents.

vessel manned by Frencliinen, but formerly be-
longing to the Buenos Ayreaiis, was completely
riddeled. The total loss of the allies ainoun_ts
to about 150 killed and wounded, while on the
other part of the enemy no correct statement
has yet been made public. Report says that
800 men‘ are missing. Certain it is that in one
foit no less than 250 bodies were found, and in
another some 150 or 160, and what is still more
strange, they were all blacks. To account for
this, it is said that as fast as a white man fell,
killed or wounded, he was iminediatoly carried
off, while the poor blacks were kept at it and
lay where they fell.

A Private Correspondent of the N. Y. Trib-
une, writes from London, under date of the 1st
ult., as follows, respecting an important; scien-
tific discovery recently made, on the other side
of the water.
Faraday has been"astonishing the world
with another brilliant discovery,surpassing
all his previous efforts, demonstrating the
direct relation of electricity to light. The
experiment has not yet been exhibited to
the public, not will it be until he has pre-
sented it to the Royal Society, for which
he is now preparing a paper—bnt from a
letter from Sir James South, published in
the Mechanics’ Magazine, some informa-
tion may be gathered respecting it. It is
the magnetization of light or the illumin-
ation of the lines of magnet:-'c forces. A
beam of polarized light is deflected by the
electric current, so that it may be made to
rotate round the poles of a magnet, and of
course the converse of this, that electro
magnetic rotations may be produced by
the agency of light. The problem of the
magnetic power ol the Sun’s rays is now
solved and demonstrated to satisfaction.
All this is ofcourse connected with the
sublimevscienee of Photography, and may
lead l0 some important results. I only
wish I had time and opportunity it
command to follow out many ideas'wii'ich
this suggests. »

IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO.
The accounts of the entire success of the rev-
olutionary. movement under Peredes are con-
firmed. That oflicer has established himself in
the Capitol, and has been elevated to the Pres-
idency, (acl"z'ntcri°m.) ’
He entered the city on the 2d instant, and a
meeting of the principal officers was held, which
provided, among other matters for a teiriporary
government, that a Junta of “iiotablcs” repre-
senting each Depai'tinci':t, should assemble and
elect a person to exercise the executive func-
tions. The Junta accordingly zissenibled on the
3d, and uiiaiiiiiiously elected Peredcs. Much
(IlSCL‘l.'~?Sl0ll was had as to the form of the oath
that sliould be adiniiiist‘cred to the‘ President,
seine of the Junta d:'.s?1'iiig that in addition to
the usual obligations, lie Sll0L'-Id swca r to “repel
the usiirpatioiis of the United States." This
proposition did not prevail ; an oath, varying but
littlc from the custoniiiry form, was decided on.
The inzuiguration took place with inucli cei'e-
nioiiy on the 4fl'l, after wliicb. 11 Te Deum. was
celebrated in the C‘.1lllC(Il'i'il. The Presideiit
made an address, appealing to Heaven for the
disiiitercstiiess of his motives, and declaring that
as soon as the country laid establislicd her lib-
ertics he should retire.
