Mr.. Chambers could not help Smiling on
hearing the account; he asked Mr.. Irwin wbeth-

one, in conjunction with the servan, girl, caused
the uproar which he had described.

disturbances above -mentioned.

The Blackjack Gazette, published in Erie
County, New-York, concludes an article on tht
subiec, of Mr. Van Buren's political projects
with these sentiments:
awhile on this subject, il may not be impro
per 10 say what we believe 10 be the fact, that
should an election for president take place this
day week in this section Of the country, that the
present incumbent would receive 4-5ihs of the
poll"
{" IL Mr. " B. chooses to spread his sails
from "mizen-peak TO flying-jib, in the wake oi
the military candidates. top-galants, let him do
;,--but let him not promise TO take 'New-York
along as "deck-loading.
The attempt Of this celebrated intriguer TO
sell the So votes of New-York to the Jackson
faction, has ELECTED such unequivocal express
,ons of Indignation in every part OF his State,
and indeed in he Unned States, that his bro
Their ''managers" have found it necessary TO de-
ny that he is a candidate for the Vice P:esiden-
cy, or that Mr.. Calhoun will be withdrawn
Thus after having completed the "Combina-
tions" and announced himself in his "Organ
Che National Advocate) as the "naster Spirit
Of the new arrangement, and the Caucus Car
slidaie for the Vice Presidency, it seems that
Mr.. Van Buren, is to be dismissed with as little
ceremony as was Mr.. Woodbury. Of Newhamp
shire, whom we learn from good authority, was
caught in the same gull-trap. The National
Advocate Of Tuesday last, speaks in more SUBJ
ianctive style than il has recently been wont to
DO. The Editor no,o thinks that "IF the public
opinion of the great State Of New-York be al

the arts of intriguers and demagogues, either
in this or other states, arc nipped in the bud, the

"Colonel Bedoya was TO start from Tucuman,

Ina work designed to conciliate the interests
Of all; and 10 avoid all distrac Ting local obirc
tons arising from the .rivalships of avenues,
streets, and alleys, which make more noise by
their competitions as they more nearly an.
proach each other, it was prndently determined
to separate the main stem, alike interesting to
all our District towns, and TO Annapolis and
Baltimore, from the branches. Accordingly,
the Canal is to terminate, by the charter, at
Underwater, but a right to extend it any where
through the District, is reserved to The States
Of Maryland and Virginia, and 10 the Congrrs Sc
of the United States. Maryland has provided
for its extension to Baltimore, and the line of
Canal has been run for that purpose through
Georgetown, across Rock Creek, at the back
Of this City. Congress will doubtless be invit-
ed to extend it through Washington to the
public property on the Eastern Branch and to
Alexandria Can any man, in his senses, doubt
the disposition of the National Legislature to
grant authority t. the cities, or to pri' ale COM
panies to do SO, and to aid, also, in doing it,
provided they aid in the construction of the
main stem?
A question has been asked, whether, Of the
sums subscribed, as much as one third will be
required to be paid at one time. The demand
cannot, by the charter, exceed one third in
any one year; but doubtless, as in all other cas-.
es. that third. if required in the year, will be
called for in smaller instruments, as The work
