that we are inclined to the opinion she
would prefer yielding it 10 having an i'll
defined boundary, which may keep the
two nations embroiled for years to come.
AT any rate, if she agrees to negotiate for
annexation nj all, as contemplated by Mr..
Benton's bill, she would scarcely make a
difficulty about so inconsiderable tract of
country-especially if remunerated for
its surrender. If she refuses TO negoti-
ate, the matter would ultimately have to
be decided according TO the rights of the
parties, as would be the case were Mr..

LEvEES ON THE BANKS OF THE MIssIS-
sIPPL-The destructive overflow of last
spring, has aroused the owners Of proper
ty to exertiOn in order TO prevent the re-
currence of similar disasters in future
There being no session of the legislature
in Mississippi the present year, The state
in its governmental! capacity cannot act
in reference to the construction of levee.
For the present, what is done must be ac-
cOmplished by individual enterprise, and
by the exertions of companies of individ-
uaIs united for the purpose OF selEprotec-
ton. The whole subject is one which
deeply interests our people as communi-
ty. 1t is confidently believed that when
the legislature meets again, large appro-
priation Of means will be made for the
purpose of erecting levee on the banks
OF the Mississippi, commencing with the
Tennessee line and proceeding down. A
bill having the consumation of this object
in view, was introduced in the house of
representatives at the last session Of the
legislature. At that time and previous
thereto, we urged many considerations in
favor Of the project. Our arguments
were deemed to the point by the friends of
the measure. 1t was not then expected to
press the bill before the legislature. 1t
was introduced by the lamented JAMES P.
BRowN, OK Bolivar county; and so well
satisfied was he and the other friends of
tho project, that it would meet the APPROX
ing sense of the people, that they were
willing TO postpone final action upon it un-
til the question had been freely canvassed
previous to a general election. The bill
proposed TO apply the proceeds of the
sale of part of the 100000 acres Of
land donated to this state by congress, to
the construction of the levee A work oil
the kind would reclaim vast tracts of land
now owned by the United States govern.
ment, which would otherwise remain sub
ject to annual inundation. Such being the
fact, it would seem fair that the federal
government should bear a portion of the
outlay necessary in the accomplishment o
the labor of building the levee. ThC
B questions is one of importance. Mr.
Hammet, one of the members of Con
gress from this state, is planter in coun
~ adjacent to the immense swamp which
II is proposed to reclaim by the levee. Fl,
Is familiar with the country, and fully un
derstands the views of the active and en-
terprising men who have for years pas
made sacrifices, in order to bring tn,
great works proposed lavorably before thu
public. 1t is believed that he will sool
bring the question before congress, eithe
by joint resolution, or by an amendmen
10 the General Bill of appropriations. w
do not doubt that the rest of the delega
ton will sustain him. The subject ca
be presented in such light that no south
eyn or western men could oppose an ap
Mpropriation.
We shall from time TO time, refer to thi
8subject during the present year. Misp'r

OLE BULL.

This name, with which among the de-
ciples Of Music so many magical associa-
tons are connected. appears FOR almost the
last time in our record of metropolitan life
and society. Tomorrow evening he bids
farewell to America. After an acquant-
ance Of two brief years with this man, this
true child Of genius, whose rower is ac-
knowledged by every heart tina, ever came
within the electric influence, we find it
hard TO give him up. Beings of such
gifts as his are rare in the present aspect
of the world-and ADM ration, love for
them, when they do appear, passes from
individuals into the heart of the public,
where it lives forever, embalming their
memories. Ole Bull has run a more bril-
liant career in America than any other
artist. The first whisperings of the
power which lay within him were re-
sponded to with fervor scarcely ever be-
fore witnessed in public; and the en-.
thusiasm then enkindIed has gone with
him and borne him up steadily and firmly

CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE md
APPENDIX.
TO BE STEREOTYPED,

The undersigned originated the mode
of journalzing the proceedings of Congress
which presented them entire. Their pub
licatlon was the first and only one that
gave each successive step in every meas
ure in both branches of Congress-; brei
of all debates; every important vote; and
an Appendix, including at full length all
the revised speeches delivered during the
session. The work thus conducted by them
is most perfect political history. The
Senators from the States and the Repre-
sentatves from every section of the In
ion bring with them into Congress a
knowledge of the feelings, sentiments, and
interests of their several constituencies.
Public opinion of the public information,
as it exists among those they represent
are embodied by them; and in the cruel
bic Of Congress the wisdom, of our times
is brought to its test, and is there con-
cenlrated, in directing the political move
ments of the country The impulses thus
given through Congress from every quar-
ter react upon the nation as whole, and
all its component parts are made TO move
n cooperation. The press cannot be
more uselully employed than in condens-
ing and spreading abroad the intelligence
of our free country, tending to such happy
results through our almost mracuIously
adjusted State and National institutions.
Having Unidentified ourselves with the
plan Of advancing the usefulness of Con-
gress by publishing full and impartial re-
ports, and having a large Mass of the
Congressional Globe and Appendix, iss-
sued during the last ten years, which
would be impaired in value to US and util
ity to the public if the work were discon-
tnued, We have double motive TO prompt
us to extend it through new series. We
are resolved if possible to give it perma-
nence, and to hand it down to successors
as standard work worthy ofbeing main
tanned and improved, We shall enter
upon our new Undertaking without being
distracted or burdened by any associate
labors of the press; and, thus unencum-
bered, shall hope to make the new series
a step in advance Of the former in all
points ofexecution. With view to &C
complish this, we shall be lone or the
other( always In attendance in Congress

porters with the daily reports of the city

The schooner Lone Star, Knapps, ar
rived yesterday, having left Galveston on
the 10Th. We take the following items
from the Civilian:
Hon. r. Plsbury is candidate for the
Office Of Governor of Texas.
The President has designated Gen. A.
II. DarncIl as special messenger, to carry
the State Constitution to Washington
City.
There have been several arrivals at
Galveston from Corpus Christi. About
1000 men camp--al good health. Mex.
lean traders continued TO come in. They
state that there are but few Mexican
troops upon the Rio Grande, and no in
dicatons of desire to march for Texas.
George M. Downs was elected to Con-
gross.
It. Dobbins recently returned from a
tour OF observation, and reported that
Baranco BIanco, on the Nueces, was oc-
cupied by $50 Comanches. A detach-
ment was sent out to meet them, but they
were not to be found.
1t docs not appear that General Taylor
designs removing the main body of the
army from Corpus Cristi, though some
delachments will be sent to other points
on the frontier,
The vote on the constitution was to be
taken on 18th. But little interest was
felt, as it was evident that instrument
would be almost unanimously adopted.
