DISTINGUISHED STRANGER.

The ship Newark, Captain Irwin from Mobile
for New York, was wrecked on Carysford Reef
on the night Of the 9th inst Among the cargo
which the wreckers have saved from her, are some
twenty boxes, ranging in size from ole to four
feet square, containing the bones Of the great Ser
pent, one hundred and foui feet long, which was
recently found far below the surface of the earth
in Alabama. Fortunately FOR those interested in
him, all the boxes shipped by the Newark, which
are believed to contain the entire skeleton, have
been saved. The ships hold was filled with
water, and the wreckers, learning the presence Of
his snakeship, and anxious that the labors of the
scientific discoverer should be preserved to the
world. saved all the boxes, thereby losing the
chance of getting out some bales Of cotton
which still remain in the wreck. They have
left their claim for salvage entirely in the hands
Of the Court of Admiralty; and under its direction
the skeleton will be forwarded to New York, its
place of destination, where its proprietors can
reward the salvors, or not, as circumstances may
call for We would suggest that they release
these remains from all claims for salvage wbatev-

love of country never wakes cold-in the stout
souls Of the hardy sons of the west The follow
ing resolutions offered at an Oregon Meeting, in
Illinois. evinces the spontaneous feelings of their
hearts, unswayed by favor, unbribed by gain,
unawed by power They give echo to the feel
ings and sentiments of President Polk s address
in language loud and clear-echoes that will send
the British lion growing from his lair:
"Resoiued, That it is unanimously agreed by the
whole Union, without regard to the political par.
ties, that the Oregon territory forms an integral
part of the United States, and the 60 vernment
has the same right to Oregon that il has 10 any
State in the Uniun.
"Resolrcd, That the relations of the United
States with foreign nations, imperiously demand
Of the people of this republic to assert their rights.
We do, therefore, express our solemn and decided
determination TO maintain the Oeeul alton Of the
Oregon territory at all hazards"

sion of them. was taken sick short.
ly after, and confined to my room for
two months, and was thus prevented
from doing so. Up to the time of my
departure from Mexico, which was on
the l4th of May last, these drafts had
not been paid. or any part of them
No doubt, however, was entertained
by Mr.. Voss or Mr.. Jamison but that
these drafts would be paid, as soon as
the Mexican government could COM
mand the pecuniary means. The gov
ernment does not claim that it is in
any way released from the payment of
these drafts; but the deranged state Of
the Mexican treasury, growing out OF
the late revolution, has heretofore pre-
vented the government from discharg-
ing them. 1t is proper should state.
that | have no doubt Mr.. VoSs has act
ed throughout with the most perfect
good faith and integrity, and that he
did what he believed to be the best for
the claimants at the time; that, upon a
statement of the facts and rea: ons or
which he acted, concurred with him
in the opinion, and so expressed myself
to him at the time, that the course he
had adopted was the best, under all the
circumstances of the case, that could
have been adopted, in order to secure
the money for the claimants.
Whlle it may be expected that these
drafts will be paid by Mexico so soon
as her financial abilities will enable
her to do so, without regard TO the fu-
ture relations of the two countries, do
not feel justified in giving you any as
surances that the remaining lnstalments
will be paid until the difficulties exist
ing between the two countries are fin
ally adjusted, or our government shall
adopt strong measures in order to CO.
cree Mexico into a compliance with
her treaty stipuiations.

fully, your obedient servant,
