 We find in the Gazette, an account of the action which took place between Santa Anna and tue government headed lby Facio. Facio divided his forces into i've divisions, one commanded by Coi. Azcarate, and the other by himself, aud attacked Santa Anna in front and rear. Santa Anna vigorously repelled the at tack of Azearate, who was killed in the onset, and his forces dispcrsed; Faeio was likewise driven of with considera- hle loss. Great rejoioings took place at Tampico CD the arrival of the Hews of this victory of Santa Anna.

AMERICAN MANNERS.

The annexed extracts are taken from
a work recently published by Mrs.
TrolloPe, an English lady, erewhile a
SoJourner in this country. 1t may amuse
our readers to see what stuff the English

IN the last London Quarterly, they be-
lieve to be bona fde true.
"The greatest difficulty in organizing

the public to call free citizen servant.

TO APPRENTICES.

When serving your apprenticeship
you will have time and opportunity &c
stock your minds with much useful in
formation. The only way for Young
man to prepare himself for usefulness, is
to devote himself to study during all his
leisure hours. First, be industrious in
your business-never complain that you
are obliged to work go 70 it with alac-
rlty and cheerfulness and it will become
habit which will make you respected
and beloved by your master and employ
er; make it your business to see and pro-
mote his interest; by taking care of his,
you will learn to take care of your own.
Young men at the present day are too
fond OF getting rid Of work they seek
Tor an easy and lazy employment, and
frequently turn out to be poor vagabonds.
You must avoid all wishes to live with
out labour labour is blessing instead
ola curse ; it makes men healthy, it pro-
cures them food, clothing, and every
other necessary, and frees them from
temptations to be dishonest.
Next to your hand labor, you should
be constant in the labor of your mind
You can never hope to rise to respec-
table standing in the world, without
long, persevering and constant applica-
ton to study. When you read you must
not throw away your time by reading
novels, and romances; you must read
natural and moral philosophy. geogra-
ply, history, and the arts. Let not large
book discourage you, or long history
or other work prevent you from reading
it through.-Wh hen you have read, re-
fleet upon the principles and facts you
have perused ; revolve them in your
mind and endeavor to understand their
meaning and utility, so that you may
readily apply them to all the ordinary
purposes of life. Ifyou do not under
stand and comprehend what you read,
you may as well let reading alone. You
have to deny yourself the amusements
enjoyed by most young men, if you
would prepare yourself for being re-
spectacle old man.-Buf. Bulletin.

On Tuesday the Gath inst, one OF the most
numerous and respectable county meetings ever
held in misplace, assembled al the Court House,
in consequence Of the unexpected and appalling
intelligence tina, the President had Ueiosd the
Bank Bill. The meeting consisted OF from two
to three hundred persons. and was fair repre-.
senlalion Of all the various classes and interests
in the country. The principal merchants and
mechanics of the City were there, actively coop-
Grating. Several of the most wealthy capitalists
attended ana gave their hearty concurrence
Add to these large nu1aber Of respec table far
mers from the country, and number OF profess
sional men. Upon the whole. we may safely
affirm that that meeting was fair and full repre-
sentation Of the industry, enterprise, capital and
talent of the City and County. Its proceedings
are before the public, and speak for themselves.
We believe, with that meeting, that unless the
bank can yet be preserved from the death-blow
which the President has aimed at it. there will
be throughout the western States, first. general
stasnation of business: second, an almost unIver-
sal bankruptcy; and lastly, by way of quack-
sh remedy for the evil. deIuge OF uncurrent
and unredeemable paper money.

Senator Benton and President .Iackson.-It
will be seen by the account of the proceedings of
the Senate, that Col. Benton has, at last, Pc
remptoriiy disavowed the expressions, that have
80 often been attributed to him, said to have been
uttered before the election of General Jackson,
and when Col. Benton was the adherent and sup
porter of Henry Clay, in which he gave the pro-
bable character of the present administration. -
The expressions imputed to the Colonel, as our
readers know, were, in substance, that 1t Gene
raj Jackson should be made President, members
of Congress would have to Iesislate with pistols
in their belts. These expressions, with the I'M.
puted authors name. have gone the rounds OF
three fourths of the newspapers oil the United
States. but not until they had been heard and be-
lieved BY half the people of the Senator's own
State. A few weeks since, Col. Lawless, a
friend of Mr.. Benton, appeared 10 a newspaper
in this city, with an elaborate argument, intended
to prove by circumstance that the charge OF au-
thorship was not just; the gentleman's argument
was ingenious. and did credit to his diaectc
powers, but unfortunately for its effect it was on.

rect statements of fact. We did not think it
