has spoken. THOMAS HART BENTON has de-
clared that he means to support Mr.. VAN BU-
Rem against the world for the next President,
and his liege friends in the West have obeyed
his commands. Wherefore this move! Why
has leading portion Of this party thus violated
solemn custom of the country, in bringing for
ward an ex-Presdent, that will be, las candidate
for reelection! Why, more especially, has it
disregardcd it's great principle that no man ought
to serve more than one term! The reason is
plain. THOMAS HART BENTON knows that
MARTIN VAN buren, never can be President
again. But he intends through this shallow
policy to keep the political coast clear, by dri-
wing off the political aspirants of his own party,
and he does this in order to secure eventually
his own success. Poor man. He will mire in
his own pool. He has not strength enough to
place any man in power, nor character enough to
gain higher station than he now fills. But his
letter is below: and we beg our readers to pc.
ruse it. We only remark, in conclusion, that il
is quite Jarcial in the Senator, to talk of the
matter being settled at Washington, when he
had arranged the whole business before HI
left the West. However, this is in full keeping
with his general conduct

THE BRITISH AT MADAwASKa

The following article, which we copy from the
Montreal Gazette Of last Tuesday, requires no com.
ment. Its speaks for itself
1--WE understand that His Excelency the Governor
General, has most emphacally declared that he will
not remove any OF the troops recently sent by his
ders to the Madawaska territory and that he consi-
ders Sir John Harvey too courteous by great DEAL
in notifying the bragGaducio Governor of Maine that
detach nent of British troops had taken up position.
This augurs well, for his Excellency must have had
positive instructions from tho Imperial Government,
that the territory to be kept and the repor, Of
Messrs Feathersionhaugh and Nudge acted on, OF
he would not have taken so bold a stand.
Capt. Mllar left town yesterday with dispatches
to His Excellency Sir John Harvey. This detach-
of troops has been for the purpose of aiding
the Civil Magistrates in the execution of the laws Of
Province, and protecting the rights of Her Majesty's
subjects. Sir John stated to Governor Fairfield, that
he had not any thing to do with the matter, and tina
he had advised the Governor General to order the
withdrawal of the troops, and substitute an armed
civil posse, as amply sufficient for all the purposes fol
which the troop was intended This as we said
above, His Excellency has declared his determination
not to do, and when once he says he will or will no
do so and so, cur readers may rest assured he vii
stick to it,"

Mr. Hasbrouck expired few moments after Har.

So years of age-connected with the mcst respectable

loss Of blood. He gave us the foregoing particulars
with as much sang froid as ifhe had been describing
| a conflict with a wild beast. Being asked If Has
brouck appeared 10 be frightened during the struggle,
he said dNo. He fought like hero !" and seemed to

questions him, all the circumstances respecting nus
shocking affair in an off hand, semmodest way with
out showing the least feeling or appearing to regret
ton he evinces of spark of humanity being in his
bosom, is when questioned concerning his wife and
family. While with him. we asked whether he wished
| 10 see them. He answered with considerable emo
ton: "No not yet. They are not prepared for the
interview" He is about 43 years of age, and has
not the appearance Of being the demon he is-havins
a somewhat mild, though determined and fearless as
pect. His education is apparently good, and he i
connected with many very respectable families resi-
ding in this county.
The reason he assigns for this Infamous act is tn,

the deceased and he had therefore concluded taxi

glish Custom House can afford are never with |
held, and that false invoices and false valuations
may pass with IMMUNITY, when the object is to
affect the revenue Of other countries. Hence
the monstrous frauds which have been imposed
upon our revenue by English importers, to check
which the bill Of Mr.. Adams has been introduced.
We are at loss to account for the course Of
some Southern Wings upon Mr. Adams Rev.
enue Bill. The very name Of tariff appears to
have such fearful power that it is only neces-
sary to speak il in order to bring down the most
violent opposition. In what way bill for the
honest collection Of the duties can be construed
into measure for increasing them we do not
see, yet such is the view which Mr.. Wise and
some others have taken Of il. Now these gem
tlenen need not feel any alarm upon the bug
bear subject of tariff That an increased tariff
fa revenue will be demanded very speedily is
undoubtedly true, for the revenue of the gov
eminent has fallen behind its expenditure at the
rate Of 100000 annually, until we have con-
tmcted pretty respectable national debt, and
the new administration will not 60 upon the
principle Of contracting new debt to pay an
old one and it is probable that the reduction o
d,ties already provided for will balance the in
ceased economy Of the Treasury. There i.
therefore little question that the duties will have
to be increased in order to meet the expenses o
the government; but any increase for protection
win not be asked for; at all events, not by thos'
; engaged in manufacturing. The compromise
bill faithfully and honestly executed is all tina
they want. The next time tariff for protec

south Of the Potomac. Interest is wonderful
