AMOS KENDALL, who, after being
taken irto Mr.. Clay's family in his sick

with an ingra,itude never eXualled except
perhaps in the case of "rhe countryman

has ever since been giving utterance to the
most loalhscme blackguardisms and lies
against the whole Wing party, had the
consummale impudence, at the opening Of
the present sessio" of Congress, to address
a circular letter to the Wing of the Ilo0Sr

The CANADIAN PRISONERS.

The Minerva, Canada paper, states, on
the authority OF a letter from LonGon, that
the government is about to restore all the
Canadian political convicls to their coun-
try. 1t also states that letters from Paris
say nothing positively of Mr.. Papineau's
return, but that he is satisfied with the
course affairs have taken in Canada during
the last twelve months.

GREAT ROBBERY.

MIR. Fl. McKIE, of Salem, Washington
county, was robbed this morning of TEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS, under the
following circumstances.--Mr. McKIE
came up the river last night in the Albany,
arriving here about half past Z o'clock.
He went from the boat 10 the City Hotel.
where he is accustomed 10 stop; walked
into the hall in the rear of the bar-room
hung up his overcoat and carpetbag on
hook and went directly into The dining
room where breakfast had just been serve
ed, without putting his baggage in charge
of any body or telling the bar-keepcr that
it contained anything of unusual value.
When Mr.. McKIE came out from break
fast the carpet-bag, containing the ten
thousand dollars, was missing, and then
Mr.. MCKEE for the first time, mentioned
its contents.
Inquiry being made at once it was as
certained that a stranger had been seen in
the reading room of the Hotel Just about
breakfast time, and that the bar keeper,
not fancying his looks, had asked him if
he wished for breakfast, to which he re-
piled in the negative, Just then num-
Der of persons came in from the boats,
and the attention of the bar-keeper was
engrossed by them. He had just dispos-
ed Of them when Mr. McKIE discovered
and proclaimed his loss. OF course the
suspicious looking individual, noticed by
the bar-keeper, was gone; and person
coming up Market street, said that be had
met man, answering the description
and carrying carpet-bag in his hand,
hurrying towards the rail road.
A messenger was forwith dispatched 10
the depot of the Mohawk and Hudson
Railroad, ard it was ascertained that
such man had been there, about five or
ten minutes too late for the cars and
that failing TO obtain passage in them
he had endeayored, but in vain to get
cab or hackman to take him on to Sche-
nectady. When last seen he was going
up Lydius street.
Mr. McK1E has offered a reward of five
hundred dollars for tho recovery of the
money and the arrest Of the thief. We
sincerely hope that he will attain both
objects. The thief is believed TO be an
English pickpocket of some notoriety,
who has been seen in our city for two or
three days past. We have not been furn-
ished with any description of his person,

LETTER FROM SENATOR BARROw.-The
National Intelligencer contains an able
letter from Mr. Barrow, one OF the United
States Senators from Louisiana, in which
he gives his reasons for opposing the An
nexation project. When the subject was
first started, he favored it. shut" he says,
latter nature and calm reflection, have
arrived at the conclusion that there exists
no state of necessity for the measure. and
that the ratification of the treaty now be-
fore the Senate, would mot only involve
The nation in an unjust war, but would in
an especial manner, PROSTATE the best IN
terests of louisiana"
Mr. Barrow then goes on 10 give at
length his objections to the, scheme'i and
concludes as follows:
have thus, my fellow>citizens presen-
ted to you, in my plain unvarnished'
way, the views entertain upon question
which, | am compelled to believe, has
been agitated, in IFS inception and pro-
gress, rather with view to the gratifica-
ton of selfish ambition and the attain
ment of power than TO promote the inter-
ests and harmony of the whole country
And, in conclusion, would ask you TO
pause and reflect, as have done, before
you allow yourselves to be carried away
by the specious but false argument of the
advocates of this measure. would ask,
too, if immediate annexation is of such
overwhelming Importance that we should

currency tariff, distribution of the

other principles of the Wing party, and

W AehiNOICN, NAY lO, 1914.
MEssRs. ALEXANDER & ScorT.-Thc
astounding fact was made known last
night, in Executive session, in the Senate,
that the President has ordered strong
military force 10 the frontiers of Texas.
and naval force of l6 vessels TO the
coasts of Mexico and Texas, for the pur-
pose of assisting the Republic of Texas in
the event of an invasion by the Mexican
army Without any authority whatever,
the President has taken upon himself the
responsibility of making this nation par.
ty to war between foreign States. A
more reckless and unprincipled abuse of
power has never been witnessed in this
country. Even the most tolerant of the
enemies of John Tyler now begin TO talk
of impeachment.
Gen. Cass comes out 10 night in the
Globe, in favor of the immediate annexa-
ton OF Texas. This, of course, kills him
off as an available candidate in the North.

Correspondence Of he N. Y. american.
WASHINGTON, May 81.

Dear Sir-Rumors are rife to-day that
more disclosures viii! be made soon which
will place the President in a predicament
much worse than he now occupies.
There will no doubt be movement for
impeachment soon-
Van Buren,, as well as can read the
signs of the times, will certainly be nom-
mated next week. A portion of the dele
gates will probably either protest against
Van Buren, or will cecede perhaps in a
row.
Two plans of action then presented
themselves, either an immediate nomina>
ton of another candidate or the recon-
mendation ofanother convention.
Some of the violent Texas men appear
willing to take up even john Tyler, or
Cas-, or Stewart, each fitting toool.
