Upon The reception Of the treaty The
Senate went Immediately iOIo secret Ses

day with closed doors.
The taking up the Tariff bill in the

Dear Sir:-The plot is now wound up
10 a severe tension, and 10 morrow the
unraveiment will undoubtedly begin.
Mr.. Calhoun holds out 10 Senators ths
deIuSive, and, 4 fully believe, insiacsrs
pretencs, that war with Mexico will not
ensue upon the accomplishment OF en-
neXaton TO giVecoIorto this preteBcs
he sends special messenger 10 Mexico
with propositions o friendship aRd Offers

is perfectly aware lha; these will bs re.
jected with indignation. While he is
assuming these pacific appearances both
here and there, Gen. Gaines lie ordered
10 the Texan frontier, and .probabIybe.
yOnd 1t. Certain it is that the Presideat
has given assurances that he will aid
the Texans, shoHId it be necessary,
Immediately on the termination Of the
armistics.
understand that the British Minister
has informed the Texian EnYoys that
Great Britain will not agree 10 a polti-
cal connekion with Texas on any terms;
and that one OF those EnVoys has said
that no resource but annexation new
remains. understand, also, thai The
MexiCaO Minister will leave Washing
ton for your city wlhouI delay. lie
must undoubtedly feel desirous Of put
ting q respectable distance between him,
self and a Government with whose q.
gents, it would seem, he cannot conIer
without its being made tho foundation Of
rumors (rePeaIed by the semi oGcial) Of
q treaCherous and infamous compromise
OF the rights and interests Of his country.
Although the treaty, without the ralif.
cation Of the Senate ia a nuIlily, YET
suppose that the negotiation Of it by the
Executive would justify The suspension
Of the relations Of the representative Of
Mexico with that Department Of Gov.

From The National In'eiiigencsr.
United States, Mexico aud
Texas,

There are some things which stran.
ger visiting Washington may hear or
guess al which residents cannot. The
conservation at hotels and other public
places, not much frequenIed by resi-
dents, opens sources of Information TO
strangers which others do not possess.
There are things also which residents
hear In confidence, and do not feel at
liberty to commit to paper, which Vtsi-
ters or So journers hear under other cir
cumstaHCes and are not restrained from
communicating to their friends. We
frequently, therefore, receive our first
hints Of transactions in the Government
from publications in the pspers Of other
cities OF this character is the greater
part of the conlents Of the subjolned lot.
ter, which we copy from New York
paper Of Tuesday morning, We cannot
Say how much OF it is lrue; but, as we
have heard rumors which induce US 10
believe part of it 10 true, viz: that The
Minister Of Mexico has lett, or is about
leaving, the city for New York, aud
that a special messenger has been cent
by this Government to Mexico-as SO
much of this letter is probably true, the
rest OF ii mag be. We desire our read
ers to take it upon lie own merits, how
ever, and not to consider US as endorsing
it, except OO 10 the csrency Of The above
Tumors:

liarty in the metrical arrangement of some of
his sentences.
"a curious circumstance (says he) is observ-
able in great portion Of the scenes last men,
toned, which it is possible may have been the
result of harmonious accident, and the author
not even subsequently fully conscious of it,
II is that they are written in blank verse, of
irregular metre and rhymes, which Sou'hey and
Shelly, and some other poets have occasionally
adopted. The passage properly divided into
lines, will stand thus:

Sull do those waters roll, and leap, and roar,
And tumble all day long;

Arises that tremendous ghost of spray
And mist which is never laid
Which has haunted this place
