The req son, you stated, of not taking the banter, " as, you had sent your horse to the stable-which, say, is not the faet, your horse being on the ground when 1 made 1t. A better reason you ought to have given, but as You did not, will do 1t fer you, which was tlrs-you knew You could not win it. l did the same evening, and all the next day, banter to run Tom any time within ten days, the two mile heats and carry you leo pounds, to catch against lIncas for as much. money as you were willing to bet, and you would not take lie up. If you agree that two horses shall make the race, if the third. horse does not come in, you will please report the race to the President of the Little Rock Jockey Club.

 The Mexican papers received at New York, give the following decree of the Supreme Government, under date of the 3Cth of De- eenber:
 ssArt. 1st.-All foreigners that may land in any part of the republic, or shall make their way into the interior, armed and with the intention of attacking her territory, shall be regarded and punished as pirates, con- sidefing that they do not belong to any na- ton at war with the republic, and that they do not act under any recognised flag.
 "Art. Foreigners that land in any of our ports. or seek to introduce arms and ammunition by land, through any channel ill 8 state of instruction against the govern ment of the nation, with the ayowed object of placing such impediments of war in the hands of her enemies, shall be treated and punished In the same manner.n Signed ]
 TORNEL. It is also stated upon the authority of pri- vate letters, that the Mexican navy had late- ly been reinforced by three or four .schooners of war, which arrived from the coast of Cam peachy. \ small fleet having on board about 800 men had arrived at Tampico from Cam peachy, and was shortly to sail for Copano. There IS no doubt that shhs fate of Santa Anna and the present system of government in Mexico, depend upon the result of the ezpe- dition against Texas.

JYNCu's LAW.

We scarcely know how to notice trans action which occurred at fayette, in this countY,' OH Saturday night last. Our req ders will recollect that some time since we noticed the murder of Alr. McGowan by a man named Spinney-I'hat he was arrested and lodged in jail to await his trial It came on at the last term of the Circuit Court, but owing to some iBformality in the in- dlcttment, (the true cause of all these diii- culties) he was remanded to prison to appear at the next session of the Court. Instead of awaiting the time allotted for his second tr- al, and giving him once more the uncertain chances of the law for his condemnation. a number of the citizens of Fayette and negh- borhood went ea naasse fatter having been refused by the keeper, the keys of the lail,1 and broke open the doors with sledge ham mers-sezed the unfortunate wretch, and hung him insfanter. The cause. we under stand, ofthis summary proceeding arose out Iof the fact, that Spinney had been heard to assert that Ii an opportunity was given him, he would, with an undying revenge, follow
 up all who had been instrumental in bis con- yiction.
 None, we presume, will pretend to con-
 demn the punishment which this hardened william received but we must say that the
 manner and method of bringing such men to justice, as now pursued, will ultimately lead to consequences the extent of which we can-
 not calculate. The innocent will suffer with the guilty-our towns will be laid waste by the torch of the lncendiary, and our lives en- ldangered by the revengeful murderer or de- feated enthusiastically Tet.

The rnited States Gazetts says:-The siege of San Antonio, was led on by Col MI- LAM, a native of Kentucky. The engage ment lasted about six days. At length the batteries were broken cosfi ty tt5 IFexian troops, and the town taken. Col. Milan was shot by free negro, who was in the Mexican service. The provisions were so scarce with the Megicans, as to cause them to subsist Oil one ear of corn day. The Mexican force consisted of 600 men, who had been dragged from their prisons, whore they had been sentenced for life, entirely aa- ked, without single article of clothing of any kind. The articles of equalization stip- ulated that Cos might remain Tn Texas or return home, on condition that he would ob- lgate himself not to take up arms again du ring the contest; but accounts state that he IS now making exertions to recruit another and stronger force, to commence new campaign in the spfiog.

An enthusiastic Frenchman, probably

An enthusiastic Frenchman, probably a soldier of Napoleon, lately threw himself from the top of the trlumphal column of the Place Veadome. Napoleon in his cooked hat and srock Is Il ow there. and this may have led to this burst of romantic patriotism. He had the honor of falling first on the gar lands, at the base, and then on the palings, where he was transixed, motionless and senseless. lis not the first exploit of the kind. This is one way to gel revenge on the king of the Barricades.---lb

.Hnrtler 5y GanlJlsr.-Under this cap ton we learn by the last Randolph Recorder, that most brutal and unprovoked murder was committed by a professed Gambler on board the steam boat Selma, on her passage down the Mississippi, \ young lawyer by the name of Allen, from Murfreesborougf, Tenn. in q discussion of the practice of gam bling, expressed himself very freely against the blacklegs. it some of his remarks an ill., dividual, whose name is not mentioned, step- ped up and remarked, q am gambler-- have you any personal allusions p MT. AL len replied he had none, but his opinion was the same. Upon which the gambler immu- dlateiy drew large Bowie knife, thrusting it downward into Aliens bosom. nearly laid it open. Allen was conveyed to his berth, and ill day or twoso far recovered as to get up, and pistol inh hand, he sought out the as sassin; the pistol missed ire, the cap ha- ying fell of. He then beat the wretch over the head until he tainted, and was carried back to his berth, where in short time he expired: The gambler was secured and is now in the Calaboose in New Orleans.

The following special Aessage transmitted to Congress oil the 6th inst. on the subject of the proifered mediation of Great Britain re- moves all appreaensione of War with France: To the SeAate and House qf Representatives:
 The Government of Great Britain has of fered it's mediation for the adjustment Of the dispute between the United States and France. Carefully guarding that point in the controversy, which, as 1t involves our honor and independence, admits of no com promise, l have cheerfully accepted the offer. 1t will be obviously improper to resort even to the mildest measares of q compulsory character, until It Is aseertained whether France has declined or accepted the mediation. l therefore recommend a saspen- sion of all proceedings on that part of my Special Message of tie 10th January last, which proposes a partial non-intereonrse with France. While we cannot too highly ap- preciate the elevated and disintefested mo- tives the offer ofGreat Britain, and have a just reliance upon the great influence of that power to restore the relations Of ancient friendship between the United States and France, ard iaoas, toe, tilass pacific poii- cy will be strictly adhered to until the nation al honor compeis us to depart from it, we should be insensible to the exposed condition ofour country, and forget the lessons of ex- perience, if we did net efficiently and sedu- lously prepare for an adverse result. The peace of d nation does not depend exclusive ly upon it's own will, nor upon the benehcent policy of neighboring powers and that na- tion which IS found totally unprepared for the exigencies and dangers of war, although t come without having given warning of its approach, IS criminally negligent of it's hon. or and it's duty.
 cannot too strongly repeat the recom- mendation, already made, to place the sea- board in q proper state for defence, and promptly to provide the means for amply pro- tectng our commerce.
