4 Mr.. Barton Of Missouri now goe. among
| The people here, by the name Of the s.Liisis
Red The following solution OF the riddle
contained in this singular title is going the
rounds and may help TO explain matters to
! those who are not in the sesreis of the lobby.
| Ii is said that while Mr.. Barton was dclir-
| ering bis admirable philippe against Mr. Ben
! ton and others in the discussion on Mr roots
resolution, an old western pioneer who had
visited the OF his boy hood for the last
time, in returning through fhis city found his
way into the gallery Of tho Senate. The
caustic satire and eloquent inYective Of Mr
Barton Immediately arrested lis attention
and he hung upon the railing with increased
delight until this able speech was concluded
though an occasional wiace and shrug when
| the administration was attacked, proved him
| to have been an advocate of Gon JACKSON
As he rose 10 depart he gase vent to his feel
ings of admiration, and shouted out, "hurrah
for my little red" "What the ID does
he mean by that2" said byassnder The
baekwoods- man stopped moment TO explain.
"Nhen went to cockpit near Nash .ille."
said he. sssoino years ago, observed little
red gamester of Gen. Jackson in the pit, 70
the surprise Of .hc whole ring, knock up a
cock Of twice his size, and he showed 30 much
tact end true game at every ny, that the Gen
eral could not suppress his sensations at the
victory. "Dy the eternl," said the hero,
"hurrah for my little red; he rises like vol
cano, and strikes like thunderbolun al
shall remember the Generals words when
ever think OF Barton's specca. | viii go
home TO Missouri, and hurrah for my little
red!" The old forester gave an earnest that
be would carry bis intentions into effect, for es
he strobe out of the lobby, with the greatest
manifestation ofhonest admiration, and most
heartfelt satisfaction, he harrasd for his little
red. hIr Barten's friends adopting the cpithet
of this honest old son Of the West, have dub
bed hina with the name Of the "httle red" and
he viii bear the title think to his grave.
The effect Of his speech has beento expose
the delnagogues Of inc day in their proper
Light. Duff Green stands proved by BIN on
the foor Of the Senate to have been feder-
aiist himself, ard now where he will take re-
fuge, after having denounced the national re-
publcans as federahsts, cannot easily con
oe;vc. The friends of The powers that be,
! are thunders.ruck by the fearless intrsridity
| with which hir. Barton has fepelled their ss-
srults, and scourged them back to their tents.
You may probably have observed Of Isle
tiat the Boston Bulletin has been quite calIn
about Duff Green We have a rumor here
that the editor of the BuileGn is TO he ''re-
formed into the Boston Custom House and
| the paper TO be united with the Boston Ca
zesle, a federal Jackson paper-a process is
nc-v going on in which the whole concern is
| 20 be died ig the scool end then they viii be
/ labelled and patented az the elect Of 'the re-
| publican party There is another thing you
| may not have forgotten. Ii is ihis-Dun you
| know made long and a severe reply to the
writings in the Bulletin of Russell Jarvis
l Jarvis inserted a Gard in the inteiiigencer,
] stating he should come out shortly with sn
! answer--now though months have elapsed
none has yet appeared that have seen OF
heard Of Some surmises that o stopper has
been put upon him. We shall see anon!-
Strange things are in embryo here.
Diplomacy. last London Monthly Mo
ga.ise has an article on thu ''Brihsh Embas-
sizes, Ambassadors, and their salarios-
following is an extract
but whatever mag be the foreign nesessi-
ty of looking to the noblesse for diplomats
functionaries, the necessity has long passec
by in the general and manly ability Of the
middle orders Of England. America had the
merit of frat proving that man H:glt be '
diplomatist without supporters to bis n.as
