Our two little Texian schooners
the Invincible and Brutus came into
port yesterday after successful
cruise of two months having taken
five prizes injuring the Mexican trade
very much by burning their small
towns &c. The Brutus came into
port but the tide being low the Irwin
Icible could not get in. Soon after
the Invincible came to. Two Mexi-
can briggs came in sight; a short time
after the Invincible bore down to
them and they had a brisk fire from
both sides; length the Mexicans bore
off one of the briggs considerably in
,jured. The Invincible attempted
to come in grounded and was lost.
Weare preparing the Brutus Tom

them offour coast or take them. The
American brig Sam Houston was
Chased into this port previous to our
schooners coming in. Where is |
Commodore Dallis and his fleet to
protect your commerce? He will
come out when he hears of two or
three American vessels being taken
Then the Mexicans will write polite
letter and laugh in their sleeve. 1t
is astonishing the Americans do
not understand Mexican policy!

HONS. WISE AND GHOLSON.
A short time since we published an
account Of the difficulty between the
Hon. Mr.. Gholson OF the House Of
Representatives and Mr. Webb of the
Courier and Enquirer. This I'm.
pleasant affair. had hardly blown over
before another occurred between Mr.
Gholson and Mr.. Wise the fearless
representative for Virginia. q Itseems
that this last unsettled difference grew
out of certain words used in debate
by Mr.. Gholson upon Mr.. Wisc's
resolution now under discussion in
the House for the appointment of a
Icommitte to enquire into the frequent
failures of the Florida Campaign,
Mr. GhoIson in the course of his re-
marks upon this resolution said that
I''the scenes which transp;red in the
rooms ofthe two investigate commits
tees last winter were disgrace to
those committees to the House and
to the Nation" The Virginia Wing
answered him in long and biting
speech in which he reviewedhis own
course in Congress and that Of his
friend the Hon Bale Peyton and
concluded by saying that he took
none cfthe genloman's general re-
mark to himself nor was it applicable
to Mr. Peyton; but continued he IF
it were clearly apparent that it was
meant for us-ifthe charge was that
and my friend were the authors of
the disgrace ofthose scenes-when-
ever any disgracefuI conduct is i'm
outed to my friend or myself would
say to the man who utters the imputa-
ion, IN his .toulthroat heHes." Mr.
ihoIson replied at some length and

ice to Insult those who were absent

In view of the present state of af-
fairs Mr. Calhoun gave the following
as his remedi6sand substitutes for the
present state banks and in preference
to a United States Bank. His reme-
dies then are a complete reorganiza-
ton of the Treasury Department and
no Treasury Bank which MIR Cal
noun seems to look upon as Il great
and insurperable evil. In the reor-
ganization Mr. Calhoun would limit
the influence of the Government and
do away as far as possible with all
executive patronage. His amend
ments which he introduces in con.
nexion with the bill which proposes
an issue of treasury notes proposes
first the government until Janua-
ry 1888 receive the notes ofall spe-
paying banksforpublic dues; second
ly that three fourths of the public
debts be paid in the notes of Specie
Paying Banks until Jan. 1889 and
finally that after 1910 that the COM
pIete enforcement ofall banks with
the government shall take place.
This in substance is Mr. Calhoun's
plan for relief and brief summary
ola speech which has been long ex-
pected and which has excited unusual
Interest.
Mr. Benton followed Mr. Calhoun
and commended him and stated
with much exultation that the new
plan of Mr. Calhoun was an old one
ofhis own, After speaking for some
