JAMES KIDD,
This is rather udicious announcement. Its the
first organised movement in this State in favor of
Henry Clay for the next Presidency-a new U. S.
Bank-a distribution OF the proceeds Of the public
lands-a high protective tarifi-all comprehended
underline two headsn the notice of "National I'm
provements' and "Tarf" l, is better to be open and
explicit on these points. What's the use of deceiv-
ing the public! Ifthere is a majority of the people
of the United States in favor of Henry Clay for the
next Presidency-in favor of an old fashioned
United States Bank"-for the distribution of the
proceeds of the public lands to the Staes-or for any
take the government into their own hands, not a Ia
Dor, but according to the legal form, and to carry
out their measures-and if there is no such majority
they never get it.

conducted, well as the Democrats, will be busy

tinct movements-three conventions-a and probably
three tickets for governor and other officers,
throughout the State next fall They may be emu
merated as follows -

2d-The Conservative Wings and others, for the
present administration and their policy.
3d-The Democrats for General Cass, Van Bu-

This will satisfy all tastes in the coming elections
and present all the different kinds OF policy for the

can reasonably complain. Vive Ia bagateue.

ness every act of injustice done to Americans,
and we therefore give TO the public the following
information relative to gross violation of pro-
perty as ever took place under any government.
While the Grenadian schooner Henrietta was on
her way FROM Providence Kingston last October,
loaded mostly with American property, she was
seized by the Carthagena squadron under Commo-
dore Rafael Tono, off Carthagena. The cause as
signed for this detention was, that the port whence
she was despatched had thrown off her allegiance
to the Government, although the vessel was only a
poor merchant schooner carrying on her usual trade
between the coast and Jamaica. This was mere
pretext for the act of violence, and very ptable
means of making prize, the proceeds of which were
of course to be distributed to the capturing soua
dron.
When the Henrietta arrived, the squadron was
afraid to leave her under the protection of the walls
OF the blockaded city during the night so they or
dcred her away, placing an officer and 80 men on
board. A gale dispersed the squadron on the next
day, and the Henrietta parted company, and being
boarded byla boat from Savanilla was carried there
and the cargo disposed of by that government In
the meantime, the Judge at Carthagena declared that
the Henrietta was not good prize, and therefore
the government that detained her is responsible
for the loss of the cargo.
The affair is as simple as possible; neverthe-
less the proper indemniication has not yet been
made, although the Consul made the necessary
requsition since the I4th October not even an an
swer has yet been obtained. Had the affair been
British one, perhaps some better attention would
have been displayed; but poor Americans must
submit in that country to be treated upon very
different footing
Ought this to bel Ought not something to be
done Immediately in this case We trust steps will
be taken to teach the Carthagenians that America is
not to be insulted with impunity.

The great Chief of Vendovi, who died on Satur-
day morning, was taken over to the hospital previous
to his death, for medical attendance. On approach
ing the hospital he expressed his wonderment at the
great size of the building and imagined the house
of the Great Spirit, who was waiting for him.
Captain Wilkes left on Saturday for Washington.
