TIE RICHMOND ENQUIRER comes to us with the names of IT. F & T. RHchie, it., as Editors and publishers, in place of their father, Thomas Ritcllie, who has removed to Washington to edit the < Union. These young gentlemen have, for some time past, been associated with their venerable father, in conducting the Enquirer, and have, now, succeeded to its intire management. They seem to be worthy sons of noble sire We were agreeably impressed, at the time, with AIr Ritchie's address to the Democra- racy, when he associated his sons with him. selfin business. He desired. ssto inflse some young blood into the veins of the Enquirer, and have assurance that the paper, which it had been the labor of his life to build up, would survive him" Although, in the lan- guage of Mir. Jefferson in reference to Dr. Franklin, ''no one can fill his place,'' the readers of the Enquirer will find him wor- thily succeeded.

have not entertained doubt as to the willingness of your Government to take mea- sures for the consummalion of our union. That they have a choice of the manner in which they shall be admitted, is thought by some to be of importance. The House reso- lutions, before Mir. Benton's project was added, hope will be their choice, for the very good reason that 1t effects the object immediately. To take the alternative of his project, will not only cause much unnecessary delay, but in- volve the measure again in difficulties, such as may be raised by the opposition during the recess. have no doubt the keen fore sight ol the Texan statesmen will so view the natter

FORT SMITH.

The following spirited letter, from an es- teemed correspondent, will be interesting to many of our readers, both within and beyond the State. It affords us much pleasure to publish it, alike on account of the delightful region of country to which it invites atten- ton, and for the qualification of many of our warm hearted friends who inhabit it.
 FORT SMITH, May 9, 1S45 To the Editors of the Runner:
 GENTLEMEN,-Permi me, through your valuable columns, to inform the public, that this is a J0aUn; and not, as some please to designate it, Ca mere Military Post" It is not only Military Post, but Town of con siderable trade and importance; with popu- laton, already, of nearly thousand, which is continually increasing. There are, at this time, about ffteen mercantile establishments, here, with heavy stocks of goods, which are sold on terms to suit the times. In fact, there is not place, in all Arkansas, where goods can be purchased on better terms than here at the head of navigation on the Arkansas river. When l revert to the period of my first visit to this point (some five years since( and compare its condition then, with the various improvements, and the busy hum of active and useful employment, which greet me on every hand, l am amazed and delighted at the progress and prosperity of our Town. The situation Is one of the most command ing and advantageous in all respects. It is entirely above overflow, on high rocky bank, sloping gently to the water; and, above all, is very healthy. This latter considera- ton, added to it's other advantages, settles the question that 1t is the most desirable place for business, and as home, in all the West. The large trade, with the several Indian na- tions, our immediate neighbors, is of very great importance to the business of the place. As some evidence of the healthfulness of the place, l will just mention that we have only one Doctor, here, and he, believe, is con- blaming of dull times.
 One disadvantage, and the one of which we have most cause to compan--as that which seems to have placed LIS, as Town, in false attitude before the people abroad, is the misfortune to have been named after the Fort at this point This has created the impression that we are only Military Post My object is to dsabuse the public mind in this respect, and give this place its dues In our neighboring Town, Ean Buren, only four miles of, there are two Newspapers, while we have none Yet we have nearly, or quite, as many inhabitants, as Van Buren. For some reason. pretend not to understand what, the papers of that place have never thought proper to say any thing about LIS; j; while they have continually teemed with en- comums upon their own town And yet large portion of their patronage is received from the merchants of this place.
 l should be much pleased to see you, again, in our Town; and promise you a hearty welcome from our citizens.
 Yours truly, M.

DRowNED.-Last Tuesday evening, Rog- CTS, who was imprisoned upon charge of murder in the Indian nation, and a runa- way negro, who was eonfned in the iail at the time, rushed upon the jaIler, with Bowie knives, just after he had raised the trap-door. to go down in the dungeon with their sup per, and effected their escape, before he could get assistance. That night, however, the negro was recaptured, and in answer to en- quiries about Rogers, said he was drowned in attempting to swim the river. This story was believed to have been fabricated. at the time, to stop all pursuit after hun; but, on Thursday evening, when all hopes of retak- ing him had vanished, body was reported to have been found floating down the river. below the State-Ilouse, which, upon exami- nation turned to be the corpse of Rogers. It seems that, in his haste to get beyond the reach of pursuit, he had plunged in the river. perhaps without knowing ofany rise, and. un- able to stem its current, became exhausted and lost his life It was in his case, that a divis-
 ion between the judges arose, as to the iuris- diction of the court over white men. who had intermarried and become citizens of the Cherokee nation; and the questions involved were ordered to be certified to the Supreme Court Of the United States, for it's determi- nation. He fled from the prospect of death aiar c6, and met 1t in the very attempt to es- cape it. y4rk Ga+ette. .Nav 19

 HE MEXICAN lNDEMNITY.-A letter from the Richmond Enquirer gives the following account of what has become of the missinG instalments on the indemnity stipulated to be paid to this country by Mexico:
 ''Eere are the circumstances of the case, as they were told to me to-day, by gentleman on whom can rely. The firm of Hargous & Co, in Vera Cruz and New ' ork, and Voss & Go, in Mexico, are agents of our government for receiving the money already stipulated to be paid by the United States. s.- Trigueros, Santa Annals late Secretary of the Treasury, IS principal partner of the firms. With one hand as Santa Annals fiscal agent, he paid the last instalment (S275,00O) into the other, with which he wrote the receipt as agent of the United States Government. The money found its way into his pocket, and he has absquatulated along with the rest of hls masters Ministers, whose heads are not safe on their own shoulders if caught within the Republic of Mexico. Santa Annals robberies of the Treasury of his own Government, fur nished him with an illustlious precedent for this robbery of ours. Our treasury suffers by this financial "operation;" for you will remember he was sufficiently patriotic to give his own government receipt for the money as United States agent. Thus Congress will be forced to appropriate the sum stolen, the United States being responsible for it to the claimants.

lloT SPRINGs.-We learn that visitors, from various parts of the Union, are Aocking to this agreeable, and most valuable watering place. These springs are situated in the bro ken, hlly, and most salubrious region of Arkansas, where there are pure air and good water. Their main medicinal value resides in the hot acdter, which comes almost boil ing from the mountain; and is used both internally and externally. The curative prop critics of this water, in all cases of chronic disease, (except affections of the lungs, J. and especially its almost magical effect in removing the severest and most lnveterate RheumatiSms, are truly wonderful.
 The facilities of access to these springs are now excellent. The line of travel, 900 miles, from Montgomery's Point, on the Mississippi river, via. Rock Roe, to Little Rock, by means of Messrs. WALTERS and WEAyER's Steamboat and Stage line; and from Little Rock to the Springs, 60 miles, by means of Messrs. SNAPP & IIowELL's $ Stage line, three times week, is exceedingly convenient and comfortable. The trip is made in the short space of three days, all the travelling in day light--the fare and accom- modatons are good-the coaches commo- dious, and all things made conducive to the comfort of the traveller
 At the Springs, we learn that the accom- modations for visitors are greatly extended and improved since last season.
