We learn that j. Romeyn Brodhead, esq, the
secretary obligation to the Court Of St James, has
taken his passage in the packet ship Victoria hence
for London on the l4th inst. ss I'D ..s
Mr.. Brodhead is favorably known as the agent OF
the State Of New York for the collection of docu-
ments illustrating its colonial history. He was
years engaged in this mission, and during that
time had much intercourse with Lord Melbourne
and the Earl of Aberdeen, as well as with
the ministers for foreign affairs at the courts of St.
Cloud and the Hague.
The archives Of the State Department at Albany
bear ample testimony to the industry and fidelity
with which he fulfilled his mission. The frank
and courteous bearing Of Mr.. Brodhead wilt we
have no doubt, be appreciated by such Of our coun-
uymen as may visit London during his residence
there.--.Jor. of Com.

FRoM FoRr LEAvENwoRTH.-The steamer Ame
a arrived last evening from Weston. She lef
Fort Leavenw worth on the Both ult., and brought
down three companies of the disbanded regiment Of
volunteers. Capt. Ranney's she put out at Jeffer
son, and Captains 'Rozier's and Koscialowski's she
brought back to this city. They were discharged
and paid off on the 30th nit, and on the following
he discharged and take passage in all probability
on the steamer Tributary for home. In the COM
panies which arrived here there were some fifteen
or twenty men down with fever; and at the fort il
is said that about one hundred are on the sick list
Other than being little sunburnt, those who have
reached this city looked generally WE'LL and express
themselves go s6ed with the tour they have had al
volunteering. The privates Of Captain Rozier's
company received pay for twelve months' clothing,
about one months service and at the of seventy
cents for every twenty miles, as mileage, making
the sum total amount to s76 l5 to each man. II
was thought that Major Stewart would finish pay
ing off the balance Of the companies by Saturday,
the Sd inst, and before this they are all their
turn home.
LATER FROM SANTA FE--We are Informed by
Captain Rozier that an express from Santa Fe
reached Fort Leavenworth two days before his de-
parture, bringing later intelligence from Gen Kear-
ny, but nothing Of very great Importance. He wss
still in the peaceable possession Of Santa Fe, and
several Of the surrounding villages He was erect
ing fort at the former place, and pushing on his
forces towards chihuahua.
d FoRr LsAvESwoRrH--We learn that trains of
wagons, laden with provisions, are still going out
from Fort Lcavenworth to Santa Fe. On the 29th
ult, some forty or fifty started, and the two or
three days previous TO that time more than fly
others were put under way. AT the fort the 30th
there another train getting ready, and would
start In day or two Il is computed that over
1000 wagons have left that point within the last four
months Cor Santa Fe, laden with army stores to keep
Gen. Kearny's army in Mexico.

TREASURY NorEs--lNTEREsTING.

In our paper of this day, will be found the notice
Of the Secretary Of the Treasury for deposites Of
specie with the treasurer and assistant treasurer for
treasury notes bearing an interest Of five and two
fahs per cent. per annum, to an amount not ex-
cceding three millions of dollars. The fact being
known at New York a short time since, that the
secretary desired loan on treasury netes, several
Of the banks Of that city proposed to take the loan
for treasury notes bearing six per cent interest,
which was declined by the secretary. Several other
propositions for loans on terms less than six, and
approaching nearly to five and two-ffths per cent,
were also made by individuals, and declined by the
secretary. The notes now issued will be receiv-
able for all public dues, both in the land Office and
custom-house, well before after maturity, and
must be regarded in the light for many uses Of spe-
Gle bearing Interest," and at the rate proposed
we cannot doubt, that there win be large demand
for these notes. .1t.tt

The following is an extract Of letter from 'one

in the county of York, Pennsylvania:
sand now, what do you think of Pennsylvania
II you think our State is for the tariff Of 1912, you
are mistaken. We can fog the wings tomorrow,
on that or any other question. One-hslf Of the
votes Of the State were not polled, from physical
impossibity. The storm effectuslly defeated us
as a similar tempest tossed the Great Western; and
you might as well attribute defeat to the tariff
as the tossing Of the steamer TO her engine. We

TRooPs ARRIVED oUT.--The brig Sultana, with
Captain Mason's and Lieut.. McLane's troops Of
mounted rf1emen, arrived safe at Brazos Santiago,
on the 4th instant, and the brig Union, Captain
Hooper, which sailed about the same time az the
Sultana arrived at the same destination with stores
for the army, we believe, the day before. Both
vessels wsathered bravely the storms which have
prevailed since their departure. This is gratifying
news to the numerous friends of those who were on

The daily union., 1846-10-22

The Baltimore Patriot whose editorials, though
bitter enough are sometimes more decent than the
communications Of most Of its correspondents, con
soes for defeat IN Pennsy wanna, by repeating
the spothegm that Revolutions never 20 back
wards" 'thst the whg march is onwards, &c, &c
The maxim may be frequently true, but we have
seen some exceptions to il. We have seen the
federalists, in the days OF John Adams, overhrown
by the voice Of the people in the election Of Thomas
Jefferson. We have seen the sans party prostrated
with the younger Adams. We have seen the wings
(alas the federalss who went for an enlarged con
sruction Of the constitution, and an extended au-
thority to the federal government) succeeded by
James X. Polk. There was once time when the
national bank, supposed to be ain the full tide Of
successful experiment" was overthrown by the en-
ergy Of Andrew Jackson, and the wild system Of
internal Improvements arrested in mid career by
the same master-hand.
The federal wings have carried Pennsy ylvana, it ia
true, under peculiar circumstances; but they are
temporary in their character and if our friends do
their duty in that great State we are destined to see
this revolution 60 backwards in October next
Whatever advantages they may have gained in
New Hampshire or in Maine, by a virtual cooper
alton between the wings and the abolitionists, WILL
in like mnnner be dissipated by the more active en-
ergies Of an awakened and an enlightened people.

BRANDON, Thursday, January 8, 1916.

I Sd That in all addresses of religious
bodies, oral or written, when moral con-
duct is touched upon, that solemn and
special denunciation Of slavery be made
18th. In the exercise OF the elective
franchise. that each Christian will hon
estly endeavor SO to use that great and
responsible privilege as by all honorable,
just and constitutional means, to destroy
Slavery in this nation
We suggest with great diGidence for
the consideration of Christians Board
0f Home Missions, founded as follows:--
A common treasury--sustained by all
sects of Christians, to be located 10 the
city o(New. York. From this shall be
sustained, at fair wages, as many mission
aries, in the same States, as the funds of
the Society, or the interest thereof when
invested in stocks, will sustain. 1. Let
an equal number Of each sect represen-
ted be elected. 2. Let the ministers
living in Slave States be preferred if they
can be procured. 8. Let them be in
structed never to speak Of Slavery in the
presence of Blacks or slaves. 4. Let
them for the present be confined to the
States of Maryland, Virginia and Ken,
lucky. Let them be instructed to
preach in the counties where there are
the lewest slaves. 5. Let them be men
Of ability and, though not fanatical, self
sacrificing and well versed in the polti-
cal and economical bearings of slavery
as we'll as in its moral influences, so that
they may be able to show the non slave
h older, how Slavery impoverishes his
iamily--excludes them from schools,
churches, the honors Of the State and
the general advantages Of civilization.
We believe that a scheme OF this kind
would do infinite good. There could be
no pretext for violence on the part of
Slave holders, because the Blacks would
never hear 1t would arouse a generous
shame in the bosoms ofour own Clergy
and force many to make sacrifices in the
cause of Religion and Liberty.
Now once more in great yearping Of
spirit for the liberty of our country the
happiness of mankind--and the glory of
God, we pray you TO question each one
his own conscience. Never let it be
said that our country called on US for
help, in great wo, and none needed her
voce
We ask all the friends of Constitutions
al Liberty, and pure Christianity, to give
he above an insertion in their Religious
and Political Journals-a request never
before made by us G M. CLAY.

THE RETURN.
Father | come back to thee
Lo bruised and broken reed;
In my hour Of utmost need,
While my heart is weak and worn,
With contending passions torn,
While meekly bow before thee,
To my lost estate restore me.
Father! come back TO thee -
From the worlds wide, cherries waste,
Doth my weary spirit haste,
Like the dropping pinioned Dove,
To regain the Ark Of Lnve;-
Nesting on thy plying breast,
Bid my hullering spirit rest
Father! come back 10 thee:-
When the world is brightest, sweetest,
When the rosy hours are lieeest,
All conspire with vain endeavor
From thy love my heart 10 sever;
Vain the tolls they spread around me,
Thou with stronger chain hast bound me
Fathei come back 10 thee -
Oh! if in an evil hour,
Yielding TO the tempter's power,
/ forget the vows | make,
And my chosen rest forsake-
May thy spirit whisper low
10 my heart this sacred vow
