The practice of affixing dates to all public and
official instruments is very unfortunate one for
those who wish to wrest acts Of congress and gene
raj orders from their original and legitimate purpo-
ses to subserve party and personal politics. For
example, the Nashville Committee, in their eager
ness to relieve General Jackson from the charge Of
ordering the execution of Militia men after their
term Of service had expired, for having dared to
quit the army when, according to law, they had the
right to do 50, quotes General Order of the Sec
retary of War, Of January, 1914, issued during the
operation Of act then in folca tojustif, order
Of General Jackson in June. 1914. after that act
had expired, and in violation of act passed
after such explanation. The act in force when Gen.
Armstrong issued his ORDER in January, expired on
the 10th of April. On the 18th Of April, another
act was passed. of which Gen Jackson was igno-
rant and in his ignorance Of the law, he ordered
an illegal calling ont Of the militia, and afterwards
ordered the execution of citizens who were better
informed than himself as TO the law, and who had
acted according to their own more correct knowl.

Governor Houston's message to the Tennessee

from that State. The message is chiefly occupied
with the subject of Internal Improvement; the in

the State south of French, Broad and Holster.

are about to become due, and who, owing to the
great depreciation in value which has taken place.
are unable to meet them and the boundary line
between the State and Kentucky. By the compact
between the States it was agreed that the bounda-
ny line should be the true latitude of sc degrees
and so minutes north. Kentucky ran the line Q
years ago; and Tennessee has subsequently run
it. Between the two results there is remarka-
Bile difference, which must be reconciletl, before
the States interested will be satisfied or the land
holders on the disputed interval secured.
We would make one single remark on the part
of this message which refcls to Internal Improve
ment. Speaking on this subject, Gov. houston
says" All agree that it is matter legitimately,
if not Exclusively, within the scope Of separate
State jurisdiction" With all proper Difference,

 Copy of the official despatch of General
 Karaiskaki to the Greek Committe.
 "I have not answered any of your let- ters, having been for the last twenty days engaged in fighting the enemy at De- brena. We have killed great number of them, and on our side we have lost our brother Giovani Suitana. On the 29th ut. we directed our oh to this place for the purpose of joining the other corps at Thistimo. We sent forward the Captains Gardickittis, Grivas, and Kiaya, with 300 men, with orders to possess themselves of Arakova. So soon as this advance guard informed us that they were in sight of the enemy, we left Thstimo with the Souliot chiefs, Ipsariots, and others; and I sent the different corps under Christothulo, Pe- tro, and Galoni, by cross road, to Ara kova, that they might reach that place as soon as possible. On the first, we attack ed the enemy, and a desperate battle ensu- ed. which lasted five hours. The enemy, after having lost great number of men, and leaving every thing behind them, reti- red to disadvantageous position, where we kept them five days at bey. They pro- posed that we should allow them to affect a complete retreat, but we sent them word that they might now do with us as we had done with them at Missolongh. This day we dislodged them from their position, for ced them to action, killed 1900 men, a. mong whom the Kiaya Bey, Moustapha Bey, and two other Beys, and took several prisoners whom we shall immediately send of to Napoli. Among the latter are sey- eral persons of distinction. Our brave tel- lows have all enriched themselves with the money. richly mounted arms, and costly clothes of the Mahometans. Rejoice, my brothers the continental part of our coun- try has got completely rid of the enemy since the flower of the Albanian Turks arc destroyed.

people the little agency they have remain- ing in the choice of President. This combination of Members of Congress is going to do the very thing which they inl- puted to MT. Clay--they mean to take the election of President into their own hands, and cheat the people with nomin- al instrumentality. And who are the men who compose the combination Men who are seeking office-one is to be Secretary of State, another of War-another of the Navy-another of the Treasury-This one is to go Minister to England-that one to France.-This expectation of office-this hope of preference from Gen. Jackson, flattered by his confidential friends-tAis is the cement which binds together hetero- geneous mass called the opposition.-This IS the principle of those "combinations which are nearly completed to elect Gen. Jackson" This is at the bottom of all the sentimental patriotism so abundantly uttered by the tongue!-Rich. Whig.

 In Randolph, Vermont, a boy named Belknap aged l7, has committed matrimo- ny; the happy fair one is Miss Sprague, his junior by couple of years. Paternal government must be rather lax in that State.
 Great Rail Road.-The Legislature of Maryland have incorporated company under the title of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road Company, with capital of $3 ,OOO,OOO, to construct a rail road from Baltimore to the Ohio-a distance in the shortest line of about $50 miles. The Corporation of Baltimore are expected to subscribe for half million of the stock one branch of the City Council having al- ready passed a res olution, which will, it is said, have the confirmation of the other branch, authorizing such subscription. The State reserves to itself the right to subscribe million of dollars.
 The Legislature of Virginia have con- frmcd this act of Maryland, so far as it is to take effect within the limits of Virginia, stipulating only, that the rail road shall not strike the Ohio below the Little kenha- wa, and that no lateral roads shall be con- structed in Virginia without the consent of the Legislature. Iti expected that Penn sylvania also, will as far as the contempla- ted road may trench upon her southern boundary, ratify the act of Maryland.
 This is cerainly very magnificent pro- ject; perhaps feasible within the amount of capital named. We say, however, per- haps-for nature has intcrposed between the Atlantic and western waters, the great range of the Alleghany mountains-which are to be travcrsed, or penetrated, by this rail road.
 The Baltimore papers cxult much, as if it can be carried into execution-they just ly may, at the prospects of benefit to their city from this undertaking. We wish their utmost hopes may be roalised-satis6ed that it will, like all other such schemes, when wisely planned and executed, con- duce to the general good.-N. Y. Amer.
