! Again: that paper ueCIares 1l"l 0.Nst
minister be not Immediately sent, the delay
will be occasioned with a view to be governed
by events in the selection of SUCCESSOR, or
in the instructions with which he is TO be fur
nished. The selection of a successor will
occasion no delay. What could make the
%Intelligencer suspect SO ? They have no
iinducement Immediately to send a m mister.
Nay, they will wait, and wisely, too, for
events to come. IF no propositions come
from us, the omission will be evidence to
them that our desire is to procrastnate a set
Element. They will wait till they discover
what course Congress will pursue with re-
spect to France ; and be guided BY the deter
limitations Of that body. II they see the foot
of Napoleon on the meek of our government
aud that government begging for quarter, &
promising obedience to, and cooperation
with his Imperial and Royal Majesty, there
is little reason to believe that the British go
vernment can promise to themselves any be-
nefcial result from an immediate mission to
this country. They will wait to be governed
by subsequent events they ought SO to do.
We wish the I%ntelligenccr had two eyes.
The people of Kentucky have omitted to
r~e-clect colonel Lyon to serve them in Con-
gress. Anthony New, for many years a
member of the House from Virginia, has
had the address to supplant him. Lyon has
been an active member, and for several years
back has. departed himself with general COR
~rectness and independence. New is a mere
yea and nay man too ignorant tor investiga-
ton and too indo!ent TO attempt it. However,
he is a help to his party, for when needed to
vote, You have only to call him from smoking
his pipe in the Clerks Office, and tell him
how to answer.
A New York democratic paper attributes
the increasing federalism of Rhode Island and
New Hampshire, to Jackson's visit to Boston.
More probably it is attributable to Bidwell's
visit to terra ~incognita.
We are happy to see the ~favorite Drama
OF LoDo1sKA announced for the benefit Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilmot this evening. From
the bold and striking incidents, with which
this piece abounds, and the uncommon at.
fractions it has met with both in Europe
and America, We feel confident the lovers
Of the Drama will be grati6ed with a rich
treat. The s%fterpiece is also a grand piece
of Romance, and by its scenery and
music, never fails to give satisfaction.-
Mrs. Wilmot, as a general pe,Jormer, if
not the first in America, ranks, at least, in
the first class Whether under the banners
Of the Tragic or the Comic Mne, Mrs. w.
treads the boards with perfect ease and f.
feet. OpheEa and Little Alraander equally
6uI al uurivaAed representation in her,
She has sustained a large share OF the
Ct the present scenic campaign,
AM I've sincerely hope, Especially as
so lean a compliment was paid to her merit
at their. benefit last year they may this
evening be honored by a numerous and fa-
shiorable audience.
