an emInenct which places him ia the very first rank

editor of the New York Mrror-a high authority

Plumbe hos brought the Dsguerreotype TO absolute
perfection" and that miniature Painting is scar ely

have become known"
1t is certainly much to he credit of Mr. Plumbe

LATE FROM TExAs.-By the steamship John s.
Kim, Captain Z. Moore, arrived at New Orleans on
the 2Ist inst, in fifty hours from Galveston, the P.
csyune received Galveston papers to the 18th inst,
and dates from the seat of government to the 10th
instant:
The papers contain letter from Duff Green, in
relation to the revocation, by President Jones, of
his recognition as public officer. The avowed pur-
pose OF Gen. Green. in this publication was to con-
tradct rumors prejudicial TO himself that had been
circulated concerning the Of this revocation
lie denies having attempted 10 procure the Presidents
approval OF bills by any improper but asserts
that his last interview with his Excellency was TO

HON. LEVI WOODBURY..

Thu New England democracy may we'll be proud
OF their many and able champions Of the good cause.
And among he New Eng land States one more
just for feeling proud Of her distinguished
than New Hampshire The Granite Mounta ms have
produced men who have become eminenty distin-

ed credit upon her, but honor and fame upon the
whole country.
The following article which we copy from the
Richmond Enquirer, pays but merted compl ment
to two Of New HampsbipeS able repre- entatives in
Congress Mr. Burke has, by hi steady and eff
cient support Of democratic principles in The House
of Represen atives, established high repu atioo.-
While Mr.. Woodbury., by the ex,rtion of his mas
terly powers in many and responsible stations--as
member of the House, Secretary of the Treasury,
and Senator-n ia or Of the great democratic prin.
ciples and measures, which have been before the
country for several years past, has placed himself

CHINA.

In letter from Rev. Dr. Parker ono nj the Mic.
s'onaries sent 10 China by the American Board, pub
lished in the Missionary Herald, he says that in the
hope Of ur,herng the objects Of the mission, he and
Mr. Bridgman, bis colleague yielded 10 the wish of
Mr. Gushing TO give him such assistance in his pego-
tistions as their knowledge Of the language enabled
them to afford. The result has realized their anti.
cipations. Almost every thing that America could
ask or China consistently concede has been granted.
DR.. Parker alludes with special qualification to the
article in the treaty which provides for the erection
Of hospitals and temples for Christian wo,ship at
each of the ports of Canton, Annoy Fu-cbou, Ming
DO, and Shangbae.

NO PRECIPITATION.

We cannot agree with the Globe that IL would
be the best policy TO rrecpitaIe action on the
Texas question in the Senate. From all the
information we have been enabled to obtain, we
are frmly convinced that lllle delay say
eight or ten days-in reporting on the House
resolutions will do no harm. The Legislature
of Louisiana, housh no instructions were
passed, adopted with very great unanmlty'
a resolution declaring that large n,ojorify''
of the People are in favor OF immediate annex
alton. This should be enough. The Senator
who will deliberately misrepresent and oppose
the wishes of his constituents, should not only
be thrust from office, but di-gTaced and degra-
ded by every true friend Of the Republic Vr-
pinia will undoubtedly act so as 70 afford an IN
timation to her Senators of the desires and ex-
pectaiions of "the sovereigns." Other States
will follow these examples, and In those In
which the Leg slatures may not be IN session.
there will be mighty and spontaneous move
mems among the People.
No, no; let US not ask for precipitate action
now the measure is out of danger, and may
repose in safety for brief space in the hands
OF the committee. The danger vanished when
il passed The House. While il was butfeled
