 Pienipotentiary asi!! conveniently, Dc appointed with powers to conclude q treaty with that kingdom. Our relations with it, .ill then be placed on a footing of advantageous reciprocity.
 All the braneaes Of our internal ad ministration, have been the subjects of anxious consideration. The national industry has received an impulse; man uiactories of wool and cotton have been established, which will relieve tne Re public from a portion of the consumption of foreign goods, which it now makes.
 The administration of the fund destin- cd to support the missions of California, has been organized; and those mission. aries as we'll as others are now in the re- ceipt of the stipends, which they have long required.
 The Mexican church has been an ob- Ject of constant soiicitude to the gov ernment; and it's first care has hcen to furnish it with worthy pastors. For this purpose, active negotiations are now in progress, with the Holy See.
 
 .Uornaonites.-A set of deluded enthu- siasts, to the number of about AGO. have lately sprung up in Ohio, who profess a belief in the golden bible, or book of Mormon. The papers oonatn many ac- counts of their infatuated proceedings, from which we extract the tollowing:-- "Thcy profess to receive sensible demon stratIons of the presence of tie Deity. A few days since, a young man gave in formation 10 some Of his brethren that
 he was about to receive a message from Heaven. They repaired to the spot de- slgnated and there, as they solemnly as- sert, q letter descended from the skies, and fell into the hands of the young man.
 The purport was to strengthen his faith, 
 and inform him that he would soon be called 10 the ministry. They declare their solemn belief that this letter was written in Heaven by the hand of God. The style of writing was the round ItaI-
 ian, and the letters of gold. The favor
 cd youth immediately attempted to copy
 the communication, bfit as fast as he
 wrote, the letters of the original disap- peared until it entirely vanished. It is alleged that some of them who have the spirit will declare that they see a white stone moving about the upper part of the room, and will jump and spring for it, until one moro fortunate than the other catches it. but he alone can sceit. Others, however, profess to hear it roll across the floor. These two stories and others of a similar charac- ter, are told by them with solemn asse4 verations of their truth.''

Some of the opposition presses had made their anticipated non-ratiGcation of this Treaty, a favorite hobby, on which to ride the Pre- sident out of lis we'll deserved popularity l We have never been able to discern. the | true motive, why such opposition to this l act of the present administration was ever manifested, unless it be ascribed to sheer ignorance of the country cedcd to the h. dians, CT determination on the part Q, his enemies to oppose every obj iect propos- ed by him for the general good. If want of knowledge in this particular was the cause, as is most charitable to suppose had those who were most strenuous in their opposition, laid aside their preiudices, and taken the pains to inform themselves cor rectly, of the country s'west of the Missis- sippi,o their mistaken notions of phiian- thropy, and. pious prayers to Congress in uf flo

They all agree Tn saying it is the finest country in the western hemisphere. The climate is mtid and salubrious;t the country is in every direction watered by nuvigabie streams; game IS more abundant than perhaps in any part Of the world; and the Indians can en- Joy their own laws, and exercise the ctts- toms of their fathers without fear of inter- ruption.

Proposed Coalaion.-Thc Globe, an able paper recently established at Washington City, states that intrigues have been some time since set on foot, to bring out Mr. Calhoun for the Presidency, for the next four years, whether Gen. Jackson should be candidate or not; and that it has been proposed openly by the Clay papers, that the Clay men of the West, the Anti-Ma- sons, and MT. Calhoun's strength in the south, combined with the federalists of the north, should concentrate their forces a. gainst Gen. Jackson or MT. Van Buren. This unholy alliance of men of all colors in politics, with the Telegraph for it's organ, will be denominated the grand AMERICAN SYSTEM, and NULLIFIcArIoN party.

 The ARKANSAS ADVOCATE, has been pub fished at Little Rock, the Seat of Govern ment of the Territory of Arkansas, for one year, and the present No. commences the 2d volume. It gives us pleasure to say, that the success we have met with since it's commencement, equals our expectations. At the beginning of our Editorial career, we avowed that our object was to serve the cause of the PEOPLE, and that the public good should be our chief end and aim and now upon review of the past, we have nothing 10 reproach ourselves for. 50 far as our poor abilities rendered us competent, we have always been the firm adcocates of the PEOPLES RIGHTS, and have uniformly protested against species of oppression, which, by certain dominant party, was attempted to be exercised over rREEMEN. That party, with a pow erfui en- zine, tan affiliated press,) partial and one sided as to local politics, at complete com mand, was fast riseting fottors upon the siu- saspocting people of. 4 Arls K lsarsas-and when we first dared to tell the people of their rights, and speak truth to these tyrants in miniature, it was thought to be in us, a measure of so daring character, that our speedy downfall was predicted: but the PEOPLE whom we served, thought different Iy, and we are not yet < crushed to atoms.''
 It is maxim ia politics, that ss power is always stealing from the many to the few :" and by our late increase of patronage, we find it not to be an unwise one We feel proud that the public have not thought us unworthy Of their support, as is daily manifested to us, by additions to our sub- scription lists, and we hope, by faithful adherence 10 the principles we have es- poused, to continue to merit their appro- hation.

 The tranquility ofthe State has been disturbed by revolution, which was the more dreadful, because that, under the sesnblance of Political principles, in- dividual advantage and personal ven- geance were designed. These sap the very foundations of society, which are private property and security. The re- voiution being confined to the southern part of the State of Mexico, and 10 a portion of Michoacan ard Oajaca, will soon be opposed at It's centre. The gov- ernment has assembled forces sufficient for this object, and it anticipates the pub- lie opinion in its favor, as well as the aid of all the States, that have uniformly combined in its support. But pllilan- thropy which the government has ever professed, deprecates the flow of blood, which is still Mexican, of whatever par lty. With this view. the project of a law will be presented to you, which drawing veil over the past, nay secure tranquility for the future. The earnest desire of the Congress and of the Exec. utive, conspires for the re-estahiishment ! of peace and fratcrnal union among Mexicans. Itis to your wisdom that the nation will owe it's consolidation.

baptized, in this town, Jan. Goth, 1905,
and has been for more than 26 years a
highly esteemed member of the Baptist
Church in this village. For about twenty
years past, she has been afflicted with
wasting disease, but to the very last in
her patience she possessed her soul. In
the near approach Of death, che said
I" Christ is the way" feel that l am
not alone He is with me. l am in q
strait betwixt two having a desire to de-
part, but willing, if such be the will ol
God, still to live, and still to suffer. In a
word, the holiness Of hearen attracted her
longing soul thither. There was her God
her Saviour, her treasure, her heart, and
there she would be herself. Reminesc-
ence of her life and conversation, as

to survivors, to become followers Of those
who through faith and patience inherit the
