1 The steamboat MONMOUTH, so well known in the l trade between this DOT, and New Ieans, has. as we are inform ed by the New Orleans papers. been sold to the United States and is 10 be sent lmme- diaely To Texas win the United States troops and supplies. The UNDIEE has been chartered also as lighter, and has already sailed fer Texas
 | We perceive tbat the Mayor of the city of New York has directed that all the hydrants be turned bose at particular hour in each day, with the view of cleansing and purifying ihe gutters, etc., tom noxious and offensive matter. Ths is right, and we beg leave suggest 10 the consideration oi ihe iaIhers of the city, the propriety of similar daily operation upon the side walks and gutiers of our own city. If the supply of is adequate, is gem | ally supposed, no reason why it cannot be done in all Ihe streets where there hydrants placed. In lhis sweltering weather, i, w0nld he luahle auxiliary the preservation of the present good health of tho city.
 0cj- A rnmnr was circulated the north for some days the effect that Mr. Buchanan had resigned the office of Secretary ofSare, in consequence of dsa- sreenent with the President on the Oregon question. and that Andrew Stevenson of Virginia, had been appointed to succeed hm. The fact and the aleg- ed motive are both fabrications. The Unon sass that there is not shadow of truth in ihe report and
 that there are no differences of opinion in an, of the great questions between Mir Polk and Mir Bucla- nan. or any member of the cabinet.
 1J- The Secretary of the Treasury has made an important decision in regard to the right of he U. States interest upon duties accrued. All duties are payable in cash, and by construction of law the

 Judge MARTIN, the candidate of the amalgama- lion party for Governor, addressed the people of Huntsville about ten days ago, and was replied to by JERE. CLEMENS, Esq. of ina, place, whose speech is reported briefly in the Huntsville Advocate. We find therein the following passage, which, coming from Mir. Clemens, who solicited himself to be- come the opposition candidate, is instructive the sincerity of those democrals who having prede ,ermned to oppose Maj TERRY, convention or no convention. make so much parade of their hostility to.the organization and action of he convention. Col Clemens of ih,s place replied to Judge Martin m il happy and ngenerous effort He attacked Judge Ms democracy, read certificates to show that he was understood to be U $. Bank man in 1887 mhan canvassing the Florence Disrict-tha he ad
 mitted the constitutnnality of such institution. &c. He said the iIue question that between
 tax payers and bank debtors; but whether the party would keep up its organization and arty uses, or be divided and distracted, while the Whgs reared the benefit of such state ot things. He defended the course oI the COnvenHon-the call for tits iepre- sentati0n-the want of credeni lais-the voting by
 etter-te reiusal to adopt ihe thirds rule-Ter- " received S3 votes including those by letter. out of the 125. The Convention fair exponent of the choice of the par,y-The primary meetings the
 largest held in the State, and the very small ones were not in favor of Terry-The calls for the Convention III May by the members of the Legisa
 ture was against Terry's request he wanting il held
 in the winter-The voting by letter did not originate with hls friends hut his enemies. Terry the choice of North America. and she was entitled to the Governor But th,s opposition came from those who had ancient grudge against him to feed fat IL can.e from the chivalry, to which he (Clemens) once unfortunately belonged. It originated from Terrys opposition to Mir. Calhoun in former State Convention-The object was 10 defeat Terry-ior that purpose the chvaIry demanded the 2. 3ds. rulc it was promised them if they would agree 10 support | the nominee-they reiu'ed they wanted to get him (Clemens) to run-they wanted tobreak up in Il some seceded-Were such men 10 have terms gran ted lhem-were they 10 control the party2 No Disappointed in their efforts, they tried and succeeded in getting candida,e-Judge Martin the didale of the masses!-When and where did they call upon him? Were J. G. Harvey & Co the mas ses? Were they to control the party and defeat it's nominee, &c? Col. Clemens defence of the Con veption was ingenious, plausible and an effective one.
 The Colonel complained of Judge Martins treat. ment of Col. Terry B bank views. Col. T. was a gainst relief in 1887 and had voted for exten- sion laws. His election could not affect the the Governor had no power over the subj j-ct-i was the Leg isature, which controlled it. Even the power in this State but qualified one, that could be -ruled by bare majority. Terry voted against the present law because he believed it i'm polite and unwise. But he was devoted 10 par | ticular system ot collection. Whatever plan would collect ihe most, the most for the State, would meet with his approbaton. Col T. was bank debtor, and had security debts to pay. But he had always paid up prompty-he had complied with the present law. and was abundanty able to meet the remaining instalments Col. c. concluded with eloquent appeal the party abide by it's organza ton, to adhere to the noinnee--to frown down lhe attempt making to divide and distract the parts-to look al Tennessee and the result of Judge Whites dividing the party-o remember that in UnIon aloHe was their strength. The man, fellow democrns. said he, that sets himself up candidate for office

We give very imperfect idea of Col. C's. speech, as our article is already too long and have had to rely altogether upon our recollection. We regret this the less though. the speech is to be publish ed IL adro and able efor-diverng at- | tention from the banks and extension laws, and ap peaIing to party aegiarce and ties and creating | alarm of Whg manGuvring and success.
