NEW HAMPSHIRE.

The Locos of this State are getting them
selves into troublesome family quarrel.
They are quite strong enough TO quarrel
among themselves without any serious in
jury being done to the party but as hon
est men get their dues when rogues fall out,
their quarrelling may result in good. The
cause of the difficulty is thus summed up:
LIST. That Henry Hubbard, the regular can
didate for Governor, is personally unpop-
ular, having been originally Hartford
Conventonist, and being now an ultra JAG
obin; I'd, that good portion of the party
were in favor of John II. White, for Gov
ernor, and think they were juggled in the
nomination; Sd, that Isaac Hill has re-
turned to private life with rather larger
and more liberal ideas than he carried a.
way with him from New Hampshire; 4th,
that there are rather more pigs than teats
in the State, to say nothing of some full
grown hogs. The immediate cause of con-
tention appears to be the progressing Rail

are the natural enemies of Loco FocoIsln
of the genuine stamp; law has been pas
sed which virtually forbids the construc-
ton of any more in the State; and this one.
being already in progress, has been attacked
by Loco Foco mob. On these various
grounds, the party has split in the middle
in Concord, and the Hill party.
The Hubbard party lately called NEE
ting, and chose a Chairman, Mr. Carroll,
oira roce. Isaac Hill, who was present,
demanded a ballot, but the chairman re-
fused to grant it, or to entertain any mo-
ton Mr.. Hill might make, as he had no
share in calling the meeting. Mr.. Hill
claimed the privilege as citizen OF taking
part in the proceedings, and moved that
Pete Renton, Esq, be Chairman. His mo.
ton was carried by reclamation, but as
Mr. Renton went towards the chair, the in.
cumbent drew shillelah, and a general
fight commenced, during which the railing
Of the church altar was demolished, anc
the Hubbard party were expelled the
house, Mr.. Renton keeping the chair
Speeches were then made, and resolution:
passed, declaring Mr.. Hubbard disor
ganizer, absolving the party from all allie
glance to him, lauding President Tyler, ant
promising to support him if he would dis
miss no more Loco Focos from office, ant
nominating John II. White, esq, for Gov
ernor of New Hampshire, and Richard
Jenniss for Counsellor for that district.

POST OFFICE AGENT.

By the Paris Sentinel we learn that Jas.
Brown, Esq, one of the Special Agents of
the Post Office Department, has been in
that place. The Sentinel says: "the dis
position manifested by this gentleman to
remedy any existing evils, and to furnish
every practicable facility towards an ex-
tended accommodation of mail arrange
ments to the people, are characteristic Of
the existence of proper spirit in the Post
Office Department"
Mr.. Brown gave the office at Paris per-
sonal examination, and proceeded from
thence to the other offices in that section
Of country. He intends to visit the diff
ferent offices and routes, in the interior OF
the State, and suggest such improvements
and alterations as will give greater regu.
larity to the transportation of the mails
an inconvenience which the inhabitants OF
this section of the country have long la,
bored under.

fit to some of our readers, as well as some
of the Postmasters not far from this place.

They have passed an odious Bankrupt Law 10
sponge out millions Of debts fairly contracted.
and honestly ue.-Ertract from the address of
the Loco, Virginia Convention.
This address, we see, has been copied
by Louisiana paper, which friend has
sent US, the editor Of which recommends it
to his readers as fair "expose of the false
pretensions of the Federal (Republican)
party, and their runous policy"
This Loco Editor, in the paper Of the
same date in which is published the address
from which the above extract is taken, in
speaking of the doctrine of States repudi-
ating their debts, says: ut is a just and
wholesome doctrine, and tn accordance pith
Republican principles"
The editor then says the faith of the
State of Louisiana is pledged for the pay
ment of over twenty millions of dollars,
and urges that the people of the State
should not consider themselves bound for
the payment of the debt-but that it
should be repudiated; and this is Republic

To the House Of Representatives;

feel it my duty to invite your attention to the
accompanying communication from the Secretary
Of the Treasury, in relation 10 the probable de
mands which will be made upon the Treasury
for the present quarter. 1t will be seen that,
without arrrestng the acquisitions which will be
made by the War and Navy Departments for the
months OF March, April, and May, there will be
an unprovded for deficit OF upwards OF three
millions.

relations, and the exposed situation Of our inland
and maritime frontier, should feel myself want

in urging upon Congress all necessary appropri.
atoms for placing it in an attitude OF strength and

heretofore been made, in full reliance as well on
Congress as on the well known patriotism Of the
People, their high sense OF national honor, and
their determination to defend our soil from the
possibility, however remote, Of hostile inva.

The diminuon in the revenue arising from
commonly called the compromise act, necessa.

of our Republic has SO periodically express
ed, that if the present generation, by some
fatality, be unable to re-conquer the terri
tory, our sons or our grandsons will accom-
plsh this victory; for nations have long
life, and those who know their power and
their rights will never submit to dishonor
and infamy."
In this correspondence, General Hamil-
ton proposes, "that a treaty of peace and
limitation should be entered into with Tex
as, upon the basis of an indemnifcation Of
five millions of dollars, which can place
in London, for this object, within three
weeks after the receipt Of the agreement,
together with two hundred thousand dollars
which will be secretly placed at the dispo-
sal of the agents of the Mexican Govern
ment." President Santa Anna rejects the
proposition, and says: "the Mexican army

she will not vary her attitude till she plants
her Eagle Standards on the banks Of the
Sabine
