FROM GIBRALTAR.

Ne,r- FORK. Feb Gave learn Through our
Rne.an correspondent, Mir. TopiH) by late
arrival at that port from Gibraltar, that anoth-
er severe gale was experienced there on the 5th
of January, in which the brig Columbia was
driven ashore and condemned; brig Torno, lost
bowsprit, Sc; ship Candance lost bowsprit,
cable and anchor, boat, sc and several others
los, cables and anchors. The brig Eight: OF
New York, and schooner Monroe, were both
driven ashore, but had been got off with dam
aye.
In the December gale, the brig Lydia lost her
bow spirit, foremost and other damage, and the
Fides was much damaged in the hull.
aptain Davis and Captain Story, passengers
in the above mentioned vessel, represent the
conduc, of the Sp2niards as harbarous IN The
extreme. The vessels driven on The Spanish
shore in the December gale, were not allowed
TO discharge their cargoes TO get OH, and every
obstacle was thrown in the way TO prevent the
preservation of property
The BIRTHS; rrigate Thetis, Sir John Phllli-
more very opporturely arrived, and by the
prompt and unremitling efforts adopted by that
commander, and carried into effect by his OH
GERS and crew much property was saved which
would otherwise have been lost They speak
in great praise of the exertions made by thai
commander
The brig Mary, of Boston, went ashore with
a cargo Ct salt, and the master applied for per
mission to discharge il into other vessels 10 ge
her off; but he was told they must first send te
Madrid; and he was obliged to throw it over
board to save his vessel This IS one among
many instances of the abomina5le conduct o
the Spaniards. Ga-eHe'

Georgefown.-Wc have already informed our
readers that the sense Of the People Of George
town was to be taken, on Monday last, on the
expediency of applying to Congress fora retro
cession, 10 the State of Maryland, of that part
Of Washington county (ineluding Georgetown
which lies west Of Rock Creek. We understand
that MANY of the citizens declined voting one
way or other, not having formed any opinion pro
or con. OF those who did vote, there was ma
jority of one vote only in favor of retrocession.
1t was supposed the majority would have been
much greater We consider the application OF
this test as having settled the question, for
time, at least, against the proposition for re-
PROCESSION ofthe town Of Georgetown.

The first step towards general system OF

passed the bill for the establishment of Board
of Public Works, by vote Of forty-one for it,
and thirty two against it. The reduction OF
the state tax one half will not njure the cause
of internal improvement, for canals, can and
will be made without increasing the state tax

enter into the Mexican service The true state
of the case is, that he goes on visit to Mexico
on leave of absence, there to determine whether
it would be most advisable for him 10 accept
or decline the offer which was, some time since,
rendered 20 him, and which has been, recently,
repeated by the Mexican Government. Were
he actuated by personal interests and aggr an
disement alone, no doubt could exist as to the
course which he ought 10 pursue, it is presum-
ed however tina, he will be governed by higher
objects than those, but whatever may be his
present views and ultimate determination,
cour,sey would seem to require that, BY a per-
sonal interview with the authorities of Mexico,
he should show TO them he has placed proper
value on the compliment which has been paid
to him

The Philadelphia Democratic Press OF the

Al our last advices he was, taking leave Of his
friends in Washington, preparatory to his leaS-
ing that city for Mexico, which he expects to
do in few days"

thus made, through US, to the Puh'ic.

that his friend was exhausted, moved that the

which was agreed to.
On motion of Mr.. McLane, ct Delaware, the
House again resolved itself into committee OF

dore Barry, Tubbs, from Liverpool, whence
she sailed on the 18th Jan we learn that the
Arch Duke Constantine had resigned the en-
pire of Russia in favor Of his brother Nicholas.
This news was confirmed by official dispatches
to the Russian minister in London. Captain
Tubbs left all his papers and letters on board
the brig.
The winter in England was very unlike that
in this country. 1t was unusually severe. so
much snow fell, that IN many parts OF the coun-
try, the people had 10 turn out to clear pas
sage for the mail coach.
Owing to the prevalence Of easterly winds,
there had been no arrival at Liverpool for Sc
veral days previous 10 the sailing OF the Com
modo,e Barry.
The "panic'' in the money market had near
" ceased, and commercial confidence was in
fair way OF being fully re-established.

And have they torn thee, gentle flower,
From thy dark forest bed,
TO droop alone amid this bower,
Where all is cold and dead
Thou't, fading now the cold night wind
Is whispering in the air,
As if il mourned the fate uukind,
That left thee blishted there.
Thus, many heart when rudely torn,
From all it loved below;
Still weeps DER lifes bright summer gone
Till silently and slow.
The sun bright smile hath passed away,
And from the sunken eye,
The soul looks out open its way,
In chez rless misery.
The flower soon dies !..-but Hopes soft ray
Unchanged undying shines
Around that form where pale decay,
A peaceful heart enshrines.
Like ivy round the blighted tree.

Amid poor frail humanity
The only verdant part.

But though all earthly things may fade,

WHAT IS WOMAN LIKE.

An eastern prince his vizirs once assembled,
And asked them what woman most resem-
sembed.
One said, the sun, the source Of light,
Which made all nature gay;
when Womsn's present, all is bright,
And dull when she's away.
Woman, cried one, we can compare
To nought so justly as to air
'Tis light, indeed, end apt to fly;
But it unites the earth and sky;
So Woman, at creation given,
Stood as link twixt man and heaven.
She's like the rainbow, said third,
That, when the elements are stirred
To strife, dissolves the storm,
its aspect does sweet calm dlifuse
We're dazzled by its brilliant hues,
Its symmetry OF form.
But who such prize possessed Sure, no man
Tis an ilusion--so is woman.
The prince, who found his council thus divi
ded,
Left the perplexing question undecided.
