The SURPLUS REVENUE AND THE GoLp
CURRENoY.-We understand that a bill OF
great moment was received by the Commit
tee oil Foreign Relations in the House oil
Representatives on Friday, the 9th, being
the bill TO purchase the French and Neapo-
Titan indenniIies. BY this bill seven mil
lion of dollars are proposed TO be appropria-
ted, TO effect the purchase of these claims by
the holders, and truly nothing more auspi-
cious to the public interest could be CON
ceived OF. Three great objects will be i'm
mediately accomplished by it. l. The Trea.
sury will be relieved instanter of seven mil.
lions of dollars: 2. The mercantile commu-
NIFTY IN the great cities, now sorely pressed
by the Bank OF the United States, will be
saved from the pressure of that institution
B. The mint of the United States will ac.
quire seven million of foreign gold coin 10
be recolned into half and quarter eagles.
Each Of these objects is n great point in it,
SELL but the latter is perhaps the most stri-
king and important, The addition of so
large sum 10 our gold coinage, will imme-
dlalely make gold common currency: and
as the whole sum will belong 10 the United
States the coinage and distribution can be
so regulated as 10 give the greatest effect to
the valuable acquisition. Quarter eagles,
OF which the coinage has been small, can be
ordered by the Government to any amount .
when coined the Government can order il
to the interior of the States, and 10 the from.
tiers OF the Union, to be paid out to the peo-
Pile, and thus to be put into circulation, in
stead of being boarded in city banks In
fact, the true character Of the bill is that of a
purchase OF gold bullion. and the benefit is
greater to The country, in getting the gold,
lhan 1t Is to the claimants, in getting ready
money Tor their claims. OF these seven
millions of indemnities part is now ON the
way to the United States about five millions
are to arrive this spring and summer; the
resi- in two annual nslalments, bearing in.
terIest. AS it arrives it goes to the mint,
taxes lis turn in being coined, then goes into
the treasury and thence is paid out TO the
people.

INDEPENDENCE OF TEXAS.

Mr. Preston presented memorial from a
respectable meeting Of inhabitants of Phila-
delphia, expressing their sympathy for the
struggle now carried on in Texas for indie
pendence, and praying Congress to recog-
nize it.
He said he was not surprised the feelings
ofthe people of the U States generally should
be aroused on this occasion for, whenever
there was such struggle going on, it had
been always manifested
Their cries for liberty found an echo in
the United States. He denounced Santa An
ma as usurper, who had tIampled on the
free constitution under which the people of
Texas had been seduced to emigrate thiiher.
That usuIper was now marching on to COM
plete its destruction, calling TO his aid all
that ambition and fanaticism could suggest
-waging at once, war OF abolition and
Catholicism He was not prepared to say,
however that the u S. Government ought
TO interfere in the contest now. A high and
moral duty devolyed on them not to let their
feelings or their sympalhies be warped from
stern inexorable justice. The present state
OF things enforced the necessity of forbear-
ance, but at the same time, of being prepared
to maintain the interest and honor Of the ma
ton at all hazards, so as not to transcend
those other duties which were imposed on
them by the law of nations.
1t was known that Santa Anna had made
it his boast, that he meant not TO stop his
career of conquest in Texas; but that he
meant TO pluck the laurels from The brow
of Gen. Jackson and plant his standard on
their own capitol" That he had declared
such to be his determination. before he tool,
the command Of his army. Relying, he pre-.
sumed, for aid of certain description in
this project and which he expected to find
on the banks of the Mississippi. Whether
this was made only in Wanting spirit or
not, was unnecessary to inquire TO be fore.
warned, however, was to be forearmed, and
this only made it fitting, that if the slightes,
attempt of the kind was made, thew should
be prepared TO meet it, when he should re.
gard it as the knell Of his dominion over
Texas, and the independence of that coun.
try It's certain result AS the general sub.
ject would shortly come up, on the bill fol
the defence of the Western frontier he
should now refrain saying more, and moved
to lay the memorial on the table, but with.
drew the motion in favor of
Mr. Webster, who said that although he
concurred in most that had been said by the
Senator from S. G., yet, that he could no,
forget, we were on terms of amity with Mex
leo-had recently concluded a treaty with
'hai Government, as now constituted

SHOCKING ScENE-BURSING A NEGRO
ALIvE-One of the most shocking and re-
Voting transactions occurred in our city last
evening abou, O'clock. which has ever
been witnessed in our country. The cir
cumstances, as near as | can learn them,
are as follows. A colored man, belonging
10 one of the steamboats,, was taken in custo-
dy by the deputy sheriff, Mr. Hammond, and
one OF the constables named Null, for some
dlsorderly conduct They had entered the
Court House yard when the negro struck
MIR Hammond on The chin with a large
knife, which glanced and cut the main ar.
terry, SO that he died in few seconds. He
then turned and struck at Mr. Null, Gu, him
in the abdomen so badly, that his life is
despaired OF. The negro fled and took shell
ter under a shed; and warned his pursuers
from approaching him. One of them, how
ever with brick bat broke his right arm
his knife dropped-he Immediately took il
IN his left hand, and made several attempts
to stab those who took him He was then
lodged in Jail
number of the citizens soon collected
and were so eSasperated that they demanded
the keys of the jailer, or they would demoI-
ish the house. Resistance being useless. he
delivered ih~m up. They took him uut,
and with nearly a unanimous voice, resolved
TO BURN HIM
They then chained him to tree short
distance from the Court House, and placed
under him a large heap of dry rails, which
they Tired and one of the most revolving
scenes ensued that has ever been Witnessed
here The shrieks aud groans of the vic.
TIM were loud and piercing, and TO observe
one limb after another drop into the fire was
awful indeed. He was about 8 minutes in
dying. | visited the place this morning,
and saw his body, or the remains OF it, at
the place OF execution. He was burnt to a
crumb. His legs and arms were gone, and
only part of his head and body were len
The scene was too sickening to contemplate,
and left it,

bers here deprecate the manner in which il
was effected, they think his crime so heinous
