Or The Secretary of the Treasury late
y addressed circular, embracing some
fifty heterogeneous, to the leading business
men and manufacturers Of the country,
with view to elicit facts in regard to the
operation of the Tariff law, to be laid be-
fore Congress al the coming session. Dread
ing the exposure Of the details of this sys-
TEN Of legal plumber, which is inevitable,
the tariff papers, from Maine to Texas,
have raised hue and cry against the Sc
cretary, and his manner Of collecting In
formation. The most hypercritcal charg-
es and lugubrious wailings are in turn
vented against the circular, al Of which
are too flmsy for serious constellation
The tarifliies will find themselves in the
next Congress in about the same condition
as Mr.. Clay described his opponents at the
memorable hard.cider session Of 1871 -
[t like criminals in a cart with halters about
their necks, vide CIay's speech.l And
tho facts to be elected by the circular, will
hasten the execution Of the popular SEN
tencc Of condemnation.

or Al Gov. M'Nutl's appointments ia
this county, Gen. Foole. In replying 70 some
remarks Of the Gov. In relation to the cele-
bra.ed certificate Of Sam. Matthew'S, which
he construed into an assault upon the
whole Matthew's family" said that M'Nutt
dared not repeat his remarks In Marshall
county, or in that section Of the State. He
represented the Gov as attacking and de-
flaming absent mon, himself their travelling
champion, and asserted that no tM'NutD
would be perfectly mum about the Mat
thews family, as soon as they reached the
Northern counties, Gen. +. went farther,
and pledged himseD that If his competitor
repeated his attacks upon the Maithews's,
and especially upon Jos commonly called
copperas-breeches) Matthews, he ,eouid i'm
mediafeiy abandon The caApass and go home,
" He would as soon,' saiGthe Gen'l, in
his peculiar theatrical style, to use his
own words, think Of running his hand in
to wof.trapw Well, all accounts con-
cur that Gov. M'Nutt repeated all be had
said, and more too, at Holly Springs. But
Gen. Foote did not keep his explicit pledge,
nor have we heard that he has made his
competitor any reparation for the unjust
imputation with which he preiaced the
pledge. We are in nowise anxious Tex
cept for his own sake,) that he should aban-
don the canvass, but we mention the mat
ter that the people may know in future how
to estimate his pledges

N.Y. Hon'l JACOB THOMPSON delivered an
eloquent and iorcibe speech al the court
house on Thursday last. lie passed in RAJ
pid review the leading measures which Will
come before the next Congress for its ao-
ton, and pledged himself, il reelected,
again to DO found among the representa-
tives Of the great popular party, assisting
to establish tho permanent ascendaney OF
democratic principles. lie spoke OF the
reduction and adjustment Of the Tariff as
one Of the fundamental grounds Of differ
ence among the politicians OF the country,
showed the distinction between Revenue
and a Protective Tariff, and declared that,
although every change will be contested !,
step Ny step, by the recipients Of the plum
der Of the present system, and the deluded
victims Of their sophistry and falsehoods,
he had no doubt that modification Of its
most odious features, if not its final adjust
ment on revenue principles, would be et-
footed by the commanding democratic ma
critics in both branches. lie spoke Of the
old issue in this State--a National Bank
as having become, by the confession OF al
most all it's advocates, an obsolete idea al
0 the arguments in lis support having beer
+. exploded by facts and experience eeei
y whilst they were being repeated he de
nounced the Bank, tho Protective system
: the Distribution scheme, and the late &C
y lion of Congress throwing the Post Office
= department upon the treasury, as links il
|. tho same chain, tending TO tho same end
!, the oppression Of the many for the bened
= of the few.

SECRETARY WAEKNeN~-We some weeks
ago noticed that MyE Walker had been
charged, among Others, wiih receiving The
''consructiye mileage" at the close OF the
lat session Of Congress. Under The cir
cumsiances yMr. Walker having been no.
minated az cabinet officer the first day OF
The Executive session, and having in his
pocket The commission for his successor
he would have been peculiarly reprehen-
slble and we are glad, for the credit o.
our State and our party, to meet with the
subioined authoritative contradiction Of the
charge from the Washington Union. As %
the other charges G. Native Americanism
and "reIgious bgotry,') we never heard
that such accusations or limitations were
made against The Secretary and our own
impression is, that these latter accusations
arc but things Of straw, manufactured by
the venerable editor, the unenviable knight
of the seven stars, TO be brushed away"
to the Qualification and benefit of the Sc
cretary. We hope the Onion will go a step
farther, and let the country know who did
and who did not receive mileage for ina
ginary nocturnal trips home and back; and
that the next time it gets in communica-
tive mood, it will tell US what Mr.. Walker
has done with that Senatorial commission,
and Mr.. Jacob Thompson's private letter ;
ave may as well here brush away some
of the other charges against Mr.. Walker,
which have been urged from other quar-
lers. II has been intlmaied that he re,
ceived his mileage as Senator at The spe-
cia session in March last. He respect
fully, but without any censure Expressed
or implied Of others, declined receiving
any portion of the mileage. He is charg-
cd with "Naliye Americanism" in his
principles. Mr.. Walker has always OPP
posed this heresy; and when it was at
tempted in the Senate to proIong the term
of naturalization, he encountered the pro-
lecl by introducing bill to reduce the
term Of naturalization to two years, as
originally fixed in the first law upon the
subject, during the administration OF Gen.
Washington. He has also, as Secretary
Of The Treasury, conferred several APP
pointmenls on naturalized citizens. 1t is,
lastly, intlmaed that he is a " bigot in re-
Iigion.' 1t is true that Mr.. Walker, at
an early period of bis life, expressed n
preference (Which remains unchanged) in
favor Of the Methodist church, but he is
no bigot. lie has appointed men Of all
religious denominations 10 oilicc--Catho-
lie, as well as Protestant"

G,,J- The new Constitution of Texas will
contain some excellent provisions. One
section introduced by II. G. RuNNELs, for
merly of this State,) prohibits the creation,
renewal, or extension Of any corporate boz
dy with banking or dlscounting privileges
Another section prohibits the Legislature
from borrowing money to any sum exceed
ing 500, 900, except in case of war, inva'
sion or insurection.
We are glad to learn from this that Gov
Runnels has returned to his first love, and
is now a hard-money, authorizing Demo
crat. He is acquiring great popularity
and is spoken Of as candidate for Go
vernon OF the new State.

Mexico. AN arrival at New Orleans
brings papers from the city Of Mexico to
the 26th August, and from Vera Cruz to the
Both. The Americans at Vera Cruz were
satisfied that war had ceased to be among
the probabilities. Several of the leading
Mexican Generals were engaged in vio-
lent personal feuds among themselves, and
with the government. Gen. Filasola had
thrown up his command in disgust. Gen'ls
Arsia and Vol were engaged in a news
paper controversy, as was also Paredes and
Senior Doves, member Of the Congress.
We extract the only additional items Of
interest:
The ministry Of the new President is
composed Of the following persons: Don
Jose Bernardo Couto, Justice of Ecclesi-
aslcal Affairs Don Pedro F. del Castillo,
Treasury Department; and General Pc
dro Maria Anaya, Minister Of War and
Marine.
The Monitor of the 22d states that Bus
tamente has been named Commander-in-
Chief of the army TO net against Texas.
An article in the Siglo Dye y Neure,
of the Goth, contends that Mexico cannot
reconquer Texas--that during the eight
years they have been making war against
Texas, they have never made single step
which would enable them to- suhdue that
territory, or even to prevent its extending
its increase and power. From the gene
raj tone of the Mexican papers, and from
the almost utter impossbIlity for Mexico
to organize an army, we are under the i'm.
preston that there is little or no probabil.
ity Of any hostile proceedings on the part
of that power.
The French Minister had demanded his
passports, in consequence Of some indigni'
iy offered him, for which The government
had refused him redress.
Efforts we're being made 10 organize 0
militia, but were nearly abortive. In the
city Of Mexico, which contains nearly
100000 inhabitants, only eleven recruits
were found enlisted.

IL one half that these disinterested and i'm
partial Witnesses say should be believed,

10 these statements may be gathered irop
the following extract from a letter OF a
correspondent Of the Vicksburg Sentinel
-. M. G., citizen Of Kinds co.-now
travelling at the North and East. He
speaks from his own observation, and is
man Of unquesiioned veracity- It must
be remembered that these unfortunate
operatives are dependant upon the factory
lords for bread, and that the fear of STAR
walton is an elTectual barrier against any
effort to better their condition. Which is
preferable, white slavery in the pent-up
air Of cotton mill, or black slavery in the
fresh air Of cotton feld?--
"The operatives in The Lowell facto-
ries number over nine thousand. Six
thousand four hundred are females. They
are at work al daylight and continue I'M
iii dark, being allowed only twenty mi
nutes to each meal Overseers are plac.
ed over Them, and the most rigid discip-
line exercised The negroes Of The South

creatures are compelled to submit to, to
procure subsistence; and yet they are
the ready signers Of petitions against
southern slavery, TO be handed over 10 OLD
Adams, 10 stir the chadron with at Wash.
ington. So goes the world of Yankee
dom in that particular. Poor creatures,
they know not what they do. They are
unconsciously interfering with those who
see more real comfort and happiness in
one week, than they can do in all their
lives in those accursed mills"
