SOME HOURS LATER FROM LONDON
The packet ship Hannibal, Captain He

tf Foreign affairs, it is not expected soon

official duties. The appoplectic shock he
has received was severe one. An inn

cnriers were dispatched by Lord Pal
msrston on the day following to the
Courts of Berlin and Vienna, with in
structions to make the most diligent haste.
The dispatches with which they are
charged, are presumed to relate to the
proposed treaty of peace between HoI-
land and Belgium-the notification Of
which, according to the Protocol of the
Five Powers, are to be exchanged on the
10th of January. Meantime the Courier
at 4 o'clock in the evening Of the 3lst,

THE SAILORS GRAVE.

Beneath the cold and joyless wave,
Which flashes with a thousand dyes,
In an unseen, uniathomed grave,
The Sailors wasting body lies,
The booming. waves GO sounding on,
TO meet the fer of rock bound shore,
And mingling in thousand gone,
With deep, sullen, endless roar.
He sleeps within nations tomb,
Unnumbered nations weuith around,
Where lustrous stones light up the gloom,
And golden harps forever sound,
The Mermaids comb their amber hair
Around the spot whero no rcposes,
And hold their sportive revels there,
When night around the ocean closes.
Far down The deep the sunbeams fly,
And linger in its csver awhile,
And light tho coral grottoss high
Above navys ruined pile,
The long grown sea.weed floats around
The corso Of many a nations pride;
The wealth Of empires strews the ground,
And o'er their relics monsters ride
Tho stars shed down their paly CLEANS
Into the chambers Of the deep,
And cast their over hickerpg beams
On him who lies in dreamless sleep,
His hair, like burning threads Of gold,
Gently around his forehead waves
And gems, and pearls, and wealth untold,
The floor around his body pavss
Still lies tho Sailors moulderin9 form.
Shrouded in rubies for pail,
Above him rides tho bowling storm,
Hosrso sounding, like demons call,
That heart which once with ardor burned,
Has ceased its notes Of joy to play,
Those sightlcss eyes arc now upturnsd
To where bis soul has winged its way.
The springs Of ocean rise and flow,
Along bed Of scattered gems, t
And through the caves Of ocean glow
But what is all their proud display .
10 him whose living spirits heds
To him whose soul has passed away,
Into the regions Of the dead. y

Our latest Congressional information
comes down to Wednesday last. In the
Senate the great question fthe protect
ing system seems to be the principal
topic of debate and has already elected
from it's friends and foes several very
able speeches, in the cause of which it
appears that the venerable Senator from
Maryland had the misfortune to excite
the wrath ofits great champion Mr.. Clay,
who made use Of language on the occa-
sion, that would among common folks be
styled vulgar and for which the ambitious
aspipnt to the-P Presidency was called to
order.
In the house the Committee on cleo
tions have been discharged from any fur
ther attention to the contested election
in the case of Col. Crockett and Mr..
Fitzgerald, the latter being permitted to
retain his seat. 1t will be recoIlecsed
that the Col. is the gentleman who hap
pened year since TO take It into his
head to turn against this administration
for which act his consti. i.uents have given
him leave to stay at home. 6~sc
The apportionment bill seems 10 be the
most engrossing topic of interest and
seems to be as far now from being set
tied as in the outset. There is hardly
an even number between 40 and 60, ,000
which has not been proposed in the va.
rious motions which have been made on
the subject. We think, however from
tho complexion Of the votes that the f.
nal result will not vary much from 4d
thousand.

York, intelligence has been received

Mr.. VAN BuaEN's REyEcrIoN.-We
should not again have alluded to this sub
iect had it not been rendered necessary,
by the false statements Of writer in the
Herald of the Times. This writer has
the unblushing effrontry 10 say, that the
friends of Mr.. VAN buren, refused an in
vestigation of his fitness as minister to
England, and that they smothered the
resolution introduced by Mr.. Holmes.
We pronounce these statements to be ut
terly destitute of truth, and call upon the
writer for his proofs oftheir correctness.
We do not think the worse of any man
for an honest difference of opinion from
Us in politics, but we should advise the
little 'creature" who clustered on Thurs
day last, not to throw any more stones.
He is almost wholly made Of glass, not
only his windows, but his doors, and ev-
en- his eyes, and that of the thinnest and
most brittle kind, though not ofthe clear
est to look out Of, yet quite transparent
enough to look into.
live have made any mistake in our
conjectures. we will on due proof of our
error, humbly ask pardon and confess
that we put our hand into the wrong pig
con hole. Be that as il may. we shall
be found to have caught nothing better
