Winter has set in with great severity. We have

fluent are enjoying all the comforts of life and in
dulging in the festivities of the season. they should
remember that many are without even the most
common necessities of life--food and raiment--and
residing in novels not suffioisnt to protect them
from the severity of winters blasts II Is the duty
of the Christian and pliilanthropst administer TO

TRIAL AND AceuITTAL OF Mn SHERIFF BAcKEN-
sros.-We have admitted this week. from the pen
of an impartial correspondent, an account of the
trial of Mr.. Sheriff Backenstos, for murder, which
took place at Peoria, week before last. Mr..
Backenstos was promptly acquitted. The effect Of
this trial upon the public mind IN Hancock county,
been tried by fair and impartial jury, in a county
entirely free from excitement on those subjects, SO
exciting in Hancock county. The talent and energy
broughti in aid Of the prosecution ought to satisfy
all that nothing has been left undone that ought
or could have been done to procure a conviction, il
Colonel B. had been guilty Of any crime; and the
promptness with which the jury acquitted him,
after so long and laborious an investigation, we
think ought to satisfy all minds that he is no.
guilty, and that the people Of Hancock county, of
all parties, should acquesce in the decision of the
Jury. We hope this trial will have tendency to
restore peace and quiet to Hancock county, and
that we shall hear of no more riots burnings, and
instructions in that Inflated district

meeting has been called yet the press with almost
unparalleled unanimiiy, has sanctioned and en-

the democratic, but even the more liberal and indie
pendent of the wing press, has given qualified as

idea which is said to prevail in the London literary

GENTLEMEN: | have this day transmitted 10 Gov
ernor Mouon my resignation Of the high trust
which you had confded in me.
The President of the United States has appointed
ME to discharge important and arduous duty that
of endeavoring TO arrange by negotiation the dihcui-
lies between us and our sister tepublic of Mexico.
This change Of the scene and character OF my
public service was not sought for by me. ] had no
higher ambition than that OF representing Louis
lana constituency in the councils of the nation But
when called upon by the chief mag istrate OF the
Union to conduct negotiation in which the interest
of the whole country, but especially Of our portion
of II, deeply involved, did not feel at liberty
to decline.
The necessity Of addressing you in this public
form would have wished to avoids but reasons
connected with my mission, which you will UNDER
stand and appreciate, rendered II Impossible for me
TO take leave of you personally, and in the informal
manner which would have been most agreeable to
me-
NV resignation will be received In sufficient
season 10 enable the vacancy In the district 10
be filed without the Inconvenience OF special cleo
ton. Your new representative can arrive at Wash
ingson before any of the important business of the
session will be matured; and while regret that
cannot contribute my humble aid 10 many measures
in which the people of LOUISIANA more peculIar-
ly interested grafed by the reflection that the
first congressional district has many citizens VINO
with ed6d ,esl possess superior capacity to repre-
sent you efficiently.
/ trust that favorable issue Of the negotiations
with Mexico may enable me to enjoy the nrtsfac-
ton of returning among at no very distant pc
Rod; but of this at least sure that neither time
nor distance can ever diminish the profound graft
tude which entertain for the repeated evidences
