JOHN Quincy ADAMS AND THE ADMINIsTRA-
TloN-We gave on Wednesday, in letter from
eur correspondent, an account OF the splendid re-
ception given by his constituents to MIR. ADAMS,
on his retarn from Congress. We make the fol
lowing valuable extracts from his speech, concern
ing matters of deep and general interest:
The base and corrupt spirit at the bottom OF
the Administration of this Country is seen in every
thing relating to Texas. Coming down to 1874 |,
let us look to the much talked of Santa Fs Expedi-
lion. This was marauding and hostile invasion,
planned, fitted out, and undertaken In the United
Safes and by citizens OF the United States, against
the Mexican city of Santa re. 1t was luckily un-
suces sfu for they did not even put price upon
their lives, but surrendesed at discretion. Had 1t
CHANGED otherwise, the consequence mlsh nave
bean most disastrous And how were these p!-
rates treated We are accustomed to think of San
ia Ana as kind of horned beast very terrible and
sanpupary. But how did he treat these prisoners I!
WHY. the Government Of the United States was
immediately besieged with applications In behalf
of these unfortunate traders and pleasure trarel-
ers-and Santa Ana has released every one OF
them! Had similar expedition been undertaken
by as many British subjects, during the admins
traton of Andrew Jackson, against the CITY OF
PHILADELPHIA, and been intercepted by him as the
Santa F6 marauders were by Santa Ana, what,
think YOU, would Jackson have done with them !
Let Arbuthnot and Ambrlster anSper. lie would
have hun. UP every one of them at the first tree
he could come at.
The following are his remarks concerning the
break;no IN of the Cabinet and the fitness OF John
Tyler for his station:
A, the breaking up of the Cabinet upon the veto
of the bank bill, (thougE was : lad OF that Veto

because the assent of the States was requred) |

NJ Webster consulted, and l strongly advised

They always assail me with misrepresennt and
personal abuse. Take recent case have been
accused both in and ont of Congress, with lnYok'

life. Even my colleague, Mr.. Cushing, regretted
in the House, that had invoked the God OF bat
