From a N Occasional Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, March 10, 1914.
L have learned from an unquestionable
source that Mr. Packenham, soon after he
was accredited here, passed TO the Secre-
tary Of State a disavowal on the part of the
British Government on any view whatev-
er Of acquiring Texas or interfering in any
manner with her entire independence.
Thus this vile forgery, which has passed
so current, is nailed 10 the counter. You
are aware that upon it Our Government

THE MEMORIAL.

So important do we esteem it that the cour-
ase& zeal of members Of Congress, which arc
60 apt TO flag, amidst the miasma of South
en influence at the Capital, should be REIN
y~igorated by a fresh breeze from the Green
Mountains, that we have hastily drawn up the
following memorable the Senate of the Uni
ted States, requesting that body to arrest the
passage of the new Tariff bill, should it az
rive there. We perceive that in various sec
tons Of the country the people are moveing
spontaneously in support of the present tariff
against the combinations Of party leaders,
Let our farmers and mechanics, stop for a
moment to make a solemn protest against the
attempt now making to crush them again un-
der the car of Martin Van Buren's treacher-
Gus ambition. The whole weight Of public
sentiment should be Immediately brought TO
bare upon congress in Il matter SO vital to our
selves and the county. And now, yea this
very week let active men in each town in the
County take upon themselves to copy this
memorial to the Senate, procure signatures,
and send them as soon as the beginning ofnext
week to be added together and transported to
Washington. Letitnot be said that the pop
ular voice will be disregarded. 1t is only to
be heard to command respect. Silence at a
crisis like this may be construed into a partial
assent or cold indifference for a tariff upon
which our all is cfaEed

NO THANKS.-The Indiana Senate on
the last day of the Session refused vote of
thanks 10 the presiding officer, Mr.. Bright
The correspondent of the Wabash Courier
says-'sOne of the ma jority members offered
a resolution expressing unanimous vote of
thanks of Senators, to the President Of the
Senate, the Hon. Jesse d. Bright, for bis
digni6ed and impartial conduct as presiding
officer. A motion was made TO strike ous
the word .unGpimous," which was carried.
Then substitute for the whole resolution
was offered by Mr.. Ewing, declaring that the
presiding officer deserved the seyerest cen
sure of the Senate for uucomteous, arbitra-
Try, and tyranical conduct as President of the
Senate. These resolutions and amend
ments elected a very angry debate, il
which Messrs, EWING, DErREEs, and WAL
POLE expressed their opinion without much
reserve of the Hon. Mr.. Bright. Mr.. Ewing's
substitute, however, was not adopted. AND
when the main resolution came up, that, al
so was lost by a tie vote. So that the Lieut.
Governor, not only goes unlhanked. bur
meets refusal on the part of the body oyei
which he presides to acknowledge him as /;
) dignifed and impartial officer. This, be
/ iieYe, is unprecedented in the history OF In
diana Legislation. Itismuch talked of here
but generally considered a just reiributior
towards man who has conducted himsel
SO entirely partizan as presiding officer
T In the ether end of the House Mr.. Robinson
received unanimous vote of thanks as pre-
siding officer, and that too by a resolution
offered by minority member of the body.n

That convention can choose from among Cal

hands of the compositor. The Baltimore
Patriot says of ii, "The letter of Mr.. Rives,
which has just been made public, and IN
which he declares his intention TO support
Mr.. CLAY in preference to Mr.. Van Buren,,
for the Presidency. will produce great sem
sation in the public mind. tits certainly
most admirable paper, and presents the sub
iect ofthe relative claims of the two candi-
dates, in point of view that is utterly IL
resistible. 1t is document that ought to
be read by every one who takes an interest
in public affairs, and particularly by those
who are DESTROYS of informing themselves oil
1 the merits of the two Presidential Candidates
5, Ii is a production that will add greatly to the
fame Of Mr.. Rives, as man of trascendan
ability, and finished writer. All that is
wanted now, is for Mr. Calhoun to come out
and in the same unequivocal manner, define
his position on this question. That Mr.. Cal
houn viii support Mr.. Van Buren, after thu
manner in which he has been treated by th'
Van Buren, party, IN reference TO the Balti
more Convention, is what no man, who ha
:. due appreciation of his high-toned charac
ter, for moment belle yes. Let him, how
ever, go step further and declare, as Nj
Rives has done, that this is question upo
which there can be no neutrals, and that a
though his principles and Mr.. Clay's are no
/ in all respects identical, yet between III
two, he prefers Mr.. Clay for the Presidenc!
By pursuing such course, he will not OF
~ vindicate his own character, but eleVa'
himself in the public estimation. 1t therefor
is 10 be hoped, that if he has made the exp
sition of his views which it is said he h;
done, and which is soon to be made public
1t will be found he has taken the same deci'
ed and manly grounds as Mr.. Riyes."
We commend the letter to the earne
pcrusal Of our readers.

II was cheering to all who takes all interest

sections ofthe country, can assure you hey

the party in this city, The club was duly
organized by the appointment Of officers, and
was addressed by number of distinguished
members of Congress. Those whom hoard
were Messrs. Stephens, of Georgia, Jane-

was testified by the manifest interest With

ON DITS.-We have very decided ru-
mors from Washington that an important let
ter has been received from Mr.. Calhoun, in
which be declares, in substance, that as be-
tween Mr.. Clay and Mr. Van Buren,, there
should be no hesitation in taking the former.
We see this rumor alluded to in several pa
pers to the East The Washington cores
pondent ofthe Boston Atlas under date ofJan.
5, says:
",There is also avery current rnmor in
the city, that Mr. Calhoun has written letter
20 Mr.. Rhett, of South Carolina, in which he
complains of the want of nerve of his friends
in the House-speaks in terms of great Sc
and verify harshness ofthe course ofMr. Van
Buren, and his fiends towards him, and with
draws from the race; but at the same time,
] he withholds his influence from Mr.. Van Bu-
rem, and stands back in solitary GRANDEUR
This rumor is entitled to additional credit
from the course which the Calhoun papen8
are taking in Alabama and South Carolina.

Advocate, interfering tothe treatment winch
