GREAT LAW SulT.-The New Orleans Union of the 23d ut. says "The suit so long pending between the United States and the City has at length been terminated by the decision of the Supreme Court at Washington, against the claims of the Government. The consequences of this decision 10 tie city are of an important na- ture. The sum of $1,600,G0o, the pro- ceeds of the sale of the lots on the Leyee, and which amount is now in the City ahd Commercial Banks, will become the pro- perty of the city; this is more than sufficient to pay the whole debt of the city, and thus removes one of the most serious objections to the bill of Alderman I.abatut, dividing the city into three sections"

 DEAR SIR-Lieut. NoIANp arrived in this city, a few minutes ago, with the Coi,s stitution. He brought but single copy of that instrument, and that addressed to the Secretary of State. It $ likely the Secfe- tary will lay it before the President without delay; and think it probable the President may conceive it his daty to lay it before Congress-at-least, hope he will so con- slider it. The Convention probably design ed that l should have nothing to do with the Constitution, and therefore sent me no copy.
 Before his arrival, to-day, (for we had just left the committee-room before he ar rived), we had had the Constitution under considerations bill for our admission vas assented to by a majority, and will be re- ported oh the day after tomorrow. shall draw it up tonight for the committee.
 There was no objection as to the mode of our application for admissionAbut there will be an effort, fear, on the part of some, to revive the slave question. But 1t will be tnavaiIing. We shall come in with our Constitution; but, in regard to the Ordi- nance, can assure you, thus fare in ad- vance, that, upon that, the pruning knife, with heavy hand, will have to be used.- or it will not go through.
 In haste, your friend,

QUAKER BENEvoLENcE.-The United States Gazette states fact every way hon orable to the Society of Friends, and par ticnlarly so to an individual of that bene- volent sect A member of the Society recently caused two hundred cords of wood to be cut from his farm and carried into Philadelphia for grdtuitous distribution to the poor---ffty cords to be given to the Union Benevolent Society, and l5o cords to the Fuel Savings Society. Wood IS worth ten dollars cord in Philadelpia, and .hs.s te hestew two thnasand dollars at this season of severity and suffering, is what we call true philanthrophy--a word that has become 50 desecrated by efforts to seek out distress in the ''bither and farther India , and by the money laid ont in endeavoring to coax the negroes to cut the throats of women and children in tfe south, that it IS refreshing to record so noble an instance Of genuine beneyolence.

Itis probable that Gen. Gaines, ere this, has gwen the Seminoles handsome drub- bing-thoagh for short lime his own situ- alton was extremely perilous. On the z9th ofFebruafy, he was attacked by about 1900 Indians, whom he succeeded in repulsing, after two hours hard fighting. His loss was 1 killed and 20 wounded-aiNong the latter, Its. Izard (of the U. s. Dragoons,) and Duncan. The trace chains belonging othe wagons were used by the artillery in- stead of bullets, and ssmowed down the h. daus like grass beneath the scythe." Our troops immediately entrenched themselves but being short of provisions, and sur rounded by the enemy, t was feared that if achievements did not speedily arrive, their fate was sealed. They were, however, shortly joined by Gen. Clinch, with 800 men. With their united forces, amounting to 4000 men, Gen. Gaines intended to pro- ceed immediately to Powell's town, miles distant, where 1t was said the Indians had erected a fortification. It was supposed they would make desperate resistance, as it was their strong hold, containing most probably their women and children.

The report of the capture of San Antonio and the subsequent massacre of the garri- son, by Santa Ana, though not positively confirmed, comes to us again in such shape as to leave little room for doubt. The roads leading to the United States are represented as being every where crowded with men, women and children, fleeing for their lives. This is what we always feared. Texas cannot maintain the contest with Mexico. She has neither men nor money sufficient to do it. Santa Ana will oyerrun the pro- yince-leaye 1t desert-and then transfer 1t to the United States.
