TEXAS.

By tho arrival of the Steamer, Expire SIS
Mail, Captain Washington, we have dates
from New Orleans, of the 7lh, and Texas
as late as the Cd inst.
The determination Of the Texans seems
fixed as 10 the invasion Of Mexico. The
organization Of the army is going on
steadily, and The people according TO the
New Orleans papers, are hardly patient
enough to wait for the necessary prepara-
tiOns.
Gen. Houston has postponed the time
of the invasion, and the clamOr against
him, in consequence, is quite strong. 1t
will be fortunate for the Texans it he can
restrain them. Yet let that INVASION be
made when it may, unless the requisite
memorial for such step be well provided
it must end IN failure, and neeed, even,
though the material be provided, we feBr
it will turn ott madcap adventure-dis-
astrous alike 10 the soldiery and the
quiet settlement of the country.
The aim of Gen Houston, it is suggest
cd, however, is not TO invade Mexico, but
10 ihieaIen her, in such way, as TO force
an acknowledgement of the lndepend.
eLce ofTexas. How far this suggestion is
warranted by the facts, we cannot say
Certain it is that no such motive seems
TO govern those who lave resolved TO in.
wade Mexico, if we may Judge from the
tone Of the TeXian papers, and the char
acter ofthe addresses put forth by them
Spoil and conquest are the rally word;
among the soldiers. But if such be the
aim Of President Houston, and if he pos
sesses the power TO restrain the Texans
lie may save them from certain defeat a
broad and serious trouble at home.

The TARIFF In allusiOn this subject,
the National In'cIlgencer, the leading
whig paper and CIay's organ ut Washing
ton, says:--
"Observing, from the current Of news.
paper reports and discussions, that a Sc
riOus doubt appears TO he entertained OF
the intention or disposition of Congress to
pass Tariff Bill oGany sort AT this sess.
ion, wo think i, right 10 state it as OUT
impression, from some knowledge Of the
views Of individuals, iha'C 'COngress is fully
aware OF the necessity of enacting Tar
iif for revenue that shall be adequate 10
all proper and usual wants Of the govern
ment, and will not shrink from the dis.
chargo Of the duty winch that necessity
devoIves upon il, An effective Tariff
will be established, we have no doubt, be.

RHODE ISLAND.

The Landholders are making the most
Of their hrief authority. Another Of The
Sufragisls, Mr.. Benjamin Arnold, was ar
rested OH the 9th, aud refusing TO give
bail, was taken TO prison. The correspon-
dent Of ihe New Era says:
81 have just returned from the place
where ] saw him incarcerated as felon,
between the granite walls Of the county
prison. Being personal friend Of Mr..
Arnold, and a member OF the same church
| thought il proper to attend him, and you
may we'll suppose that il was no>pleas-
ant affair, to leave such man in such a
place, From a long and intimate ecquain-
tance with Mr. Arnold, having been a
partner with him IN business, arm satsf-
ed that there is mott more conscientious
and inoliensive man TO he found. He
has been a member Of the Methodist T..
Church, over 25 years, and not blot can
be produced against his moral character.
He was formerly from Connecticut, wherc
he YVES highly respected and esteemed as
a valuable citizen, but he has resided for
several years in this State, and has be-
come permanent citizen, and owns real
estate TO considerable amount in this
city. This SUBMISSION to the form Oflaw
in this case may be construed by the pen
pie abroad, TO argue want Of determine
tion OF impotency on the part Of the peO-
ple's cause, but hope no such Inference
will be drawn. A large collection imme-
diately assembled, on hearing Of Mr.. AS
arrest, and gave him distinctly to under.
stand that he need not he detained against
his will, but being friend Of law and
ORDER in the proper sense of those words
he made them short address, saying
that heardently hoped that no interference
wOul be made. This alone prevented an
immediate outbreak"
A silly story has heen going the rounds,
and been published in the Wing plPers
of this city,) to tho effect that Governor
Do:r had been disowned hy his father,
whom no told that he would march over
his (the father'S) dead body, to obtain his
rights. The Providence Express says,
by authhrity, that the story is destitute Of
any foundation in fact.
Mr.. Sayles, Speaker oF the COnsti'u'
tional Legislature, was also arrested al
Woodsacket, but Instantly rcscuedby his
friends. This ID the first instance in
which resistance has been made 10 the
process, however destitute ol authority
Of the landholders. twill not bo the last
says the Chronicle, ifthey persist in their
mad and wicked course.

The ABLEST LEGILAToRs NOT
THE GREATEST' ,TAH ISS NOI

THE GREATEST TAGKPP1SSO Ike 1SOI
One of the most Eeouen,
diseased under which the public man ~
thus country labor, is that Of speech ma
klng-annoyng TO themselves and the nnh
llc. There was time when wisdom anL
scholarship of literary men was es,eemsd
in exact ratio to the number ofhuoa vol
umes they had written. To be great
man, in the world of letters, it was sbso.
!nteiy necessary to write a big book
That day has passed in book making but
similar rage for writing and talking lone
speeches, still prevails. Our public talk,
ers are too verbose and when talking as
legislators too fond of spouting for the
glory OF ito see their name and accred-
l'ed words in print-ior 'bunkum,'
This is great error, and not a lithe
expensive TO the people. The best Les.
lsIalors talk less, and do more, thew think
and act,-Jeifarson, for example. The
New York New Era has some verv sen.
sble remarks upon this subject. iustlv
commendatorY of the able, iudicious and,
manly course pursued by the Hon. F.
Wood, member of Congress from N. Y,
since holding his seat in that BODY. Mr..
Wood is young man of talents and dis.
cretIon, is seldom.heard in debate. but.
when be does speak, it is TO the pur.
pose. His speech upon the tariff is
proof of his capacity and depth of refec
ton.
Over-tondness of the public gaze, a
disposition TO seize every opportunity 20
make aspeech. has blasted the expec
tIons OF many young men of ability, who
might otherwise have become even popu
lar, and also useful to the country. He
who Is ever on tipoe 10 make a speech.
will say many foolish things-satiate his
hearers and in the end lose all influence,
The influential men in Congress are not
those with whom the public is most fa-
mlliar' The New Era very Justly re q.
marks:--
I'll Is an error too common, TO think the
leading men in Congress are those who
are forever on the floor, having their
names always before the public. The a.
blest, IN fact the first men in the House
of Representatives. are these who seldom
speak Mr.. John W. Jones, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Speaker, does not
make one speech session, and there
are others who, in the House, stand pre-
eminently distinguished; of whom the
newspaper-reading world scarcely ever
heard"
The Senate of the United States, the
most dignified assembly in the world. is
composed Of men Of the first order ofin-
teIIect. The speeches ofts members are
generally the result Of the labors of the
head, while the speeches delivered in the
House are more frequently the productions
ofan itching tongue.-Cm. Enq.

VIRGINIA.

The Globe of Thursday, has re turns
from counties sc. electing l63 members
of the House, ofwhOm 90 are democrats
and IL whigs-demOcratic nett gain so
far 20, making difference of 40. The
wings had a majority in the House last
year, off,
The dem Ocrats have also gained thus
far, four senators, and lost none. The
gains are in the Louisa, Berkely, Pitisyl-
vania and Boietout districts. They give
the democrats eight majority in the Sen,
ate. Last year that body was equally di.
vIded.
Should no other changes take place,
the democrats will have a majority of49
on joint ballot.
