Treasury Notes-U United States Loan, Sc.
The " Union of Thursday last, give you a
very fatherly rebuke for desiring The Government
TO disclose its plan of operations in the war against
Mexico. He replies 10 your spicy editorial in a
candid and generous article, Of over half a col
umn-argues the impolicy of proclaiming the
plans of a campaign by the sound of the trumpet
for weeks before we are prepared TO execute
them-insists that the administration has no de.
sire to mystify its acts, Sc, &c.-and winds I'D
by saying that nothing but the respect which the
Government Official feels for the influence of the
" .NeW Era" could have induced it 10 meet your
complaints at such length. | am disposed 10
agree with the Union. 1t is sufficient for us ia
know that the war will be prosecuted vigorously
without being informed when or how an attack is
10 be made. Were you amusing yourself with a
game of chess. or whist, you surely would not
inform your adversary Of your intended moves, or
show him your hand.
Facts are bearing out the assertion in my last
letter, that the Three Million issue of Treasury
Notes, at five and two. fflhs per cent interest,
would be eagerly sought after. In addition to a
-
large amount already taken by private capitalists,
the Bank of the Metropolis, on Thursday last.
exchanged $50 900 in specie for that amount Of
Treasury Notes, and offered to increase it to
100000, if the Secretary would leave the mo-
ney on deposite, TO be checked for as the Govern.
ment should require but under the Independent
Treasury law, Mr.. Walker conceived he had M
authority TO make any new depoqiles in banks,
and accordingly declined the offer.
Yesterday the Treasury Department issued
proposals for a loan of Five Millions of Dollars on
a stock bearing SIX per cent. interest-payabIe
semi-annually y, and redeemable in 1856. With
this loan and the Treasury Notes, amounting tc
$40 900 900, together with the moneys on hand
exceeding $4,000, 000-the proceeds of the Gus.
toms, and the sales Of The Public Lands. (which
are now immense)-it is believed the Govern
ment will have an abundant supply of the "sinews

ARRIVAL OF THE FLIRT.

on Sunday morning last made Glad the hearts
OF many who had friends on board, and who began
to entertain fearful forebodings for her safety but
here she lies safe and sound in our ha,bor, while
she brings the tale to us of many a gallant shin
ioundered in the late gale that ragged with tremen-
dous effect in the harbor Of Cuba. We copy the
following from her report in the Beacon of yes.
terday:-
From the captain, officers and one of the pas
sengers, we gather the following particulars res.
pec'ing the late terrific hurricane at Havana
Commencing on the 10th, it confined 10 rare witb
increasing fury until 0o'clock, p. M. of the lin.
devastating property and human life beyond any
former parallel in the history of hurricanes in tina,
hitherto devoted and exposed region.
Inc 4 llrt was 10 the westward and felt the Gale
on the 9th, 10Th and lIth, and had a yery rouob
time of it. The exact extent of the rayagss
had moi been ascertained when the Flirt sailed.
UP TO the time of her sailing it was understood
that nineteen American vessels, t,celve of which
belonged TO Boston, and a large number of FOREIGN
vessels, including the entire French fleet and two
BRITISH mon OF war had been sunk, driven ashore
and lost. Men of war vessels went down at their
anchorages with terrific ~plunges, and broken limbs
and drowning bodies were seen floating on the
surface. The sound of the wind resembIed the
roar of artillery. The City itself had suffered
f%earfully, many houses having been blown down
and many more unroofed and otherwise injured
The precise loss of human life had not been ascer-
tanned. the American Consul thought $50 lives
were lost in the harbor, but enough was known
to make this feature of the hurricane truly hideous
and appalling. The Flirt has been absent seven
months and IN port only twenty days"
The Havana prices Current of the 18th, in sum
ming mp the disasters to the shipping, owes the
following result: Ships sunk III, dismasted d,
much damaged 8, safe 4-total 81. Briggs sunk
~, dismasted IL, much damaged Id, safe a

TAKING THE BULL BY THE HORNS.

"A gentleman in this city. who sets the highest
value upon the institution Of sLAvERY. contending
that 1t is essential to the perpetuity Of a Republi-
can form OF Government, and attributing 10 the
want Of it the low tone Of honor and of morals that
prevails in our Northern cities, proposes to petition
Congress for its extension amongst the Northern
States. He has left the paper at our office for
signatures. intending 10 present il to the next
Congress through the hands Of Mr.. Adams, who,
it is presumed from his opinions upon the right of
petition, will not refuse to become the vehicle o.
its transmission.
Strict consiruciionists as we are, we consider
it entirely beyond the pale of Congressional power
To interfere with the domestic institutions of the
States OF this Union but. ofcourse, the Abolition
isis cannot object to it on this ground. With them.
IL Is simply a question q fpoficy, whether Congress
should abolish or extend the institution of slavery ;
and IT 1t comes 10 that. we would not at all be sur
prised 10 see an act of Congress authorising the
buying and selling negroes in the State of Massa-
chpsetts.
We cut the above from the Richmond Stan
dard. We hope our friends in Richmond will pre-
vent any such petition being sent to Congress even
10 ridlcule an attempt as ridiculous as il is impu
dent. We know that our friends of the Standard
would not earnestly make such a move, and we
cannot look upon i, as a Legitimate subject for sport
for it will be cited as a serious act by our opponents.
when the great day of trial comes. as surely il
will come, to test the strength of the Constitution,
or sever forever the bonds that connect us together
ass nation. The monster .Gbolition has grown
too strong and large, 10 be trifled with, and every
southern man should be prepared TO do battle against
its encroachments in all soberness and we earnestly
enireat that nothing may be done in a spirit of ridi-
cule or contempt for the enemy that is calculated
hereafter, TO weaken the arguments and Efforts of
our champions, in the cause of the South.-Ne,o
Era.

NOW IS i'll TIME-

10 subscribe for the Literary papers, such as
the Western Continent, Morris's National Press
The New York Mirror, &C., which have all COM
menced the publication of Dickens new work of
"Dombey & Son" 1t is in the old vein of that
delightful author, and from what we have read,
we believe 1t will redeem his character from the
disgrace of publishing his Tour in the United
States, and his Letters on the Continent. It is
giving 1t high but just praise when we say it re-
mindsus of the first works of Dickens.

Mr.. Editor Having so kindly offered The
columns of your paper, for the discussion Of the
great and prominent question of INCORPORATION.
and feeling that interest in every thing PERTAINING
to this community, that all good citizens should.
and believing, as | do, that in this question is in
volved our future destiny as a community, I
have thought proper to embrace your offer. and
trouble you with a few Of my reasons, why Ports.
mouth should not be placed under municipal
authorities.
In the ultimate adoption of the plans proposed
by the advocates Of incorporation, | consider that
injustice of the highest order would be done tho
County, after the enormous expenditures made
by them in Portsmouth, in rearing in our midst.
buildings that were not only indispensable and at
the same time very much needed, but remain the
pride and ornament Of the Town, these BUILDINGS
were intended to be held in joint occupation 6y
Town and County but by an Act of i%ncorpora-
ton, the Courts Of the County would necessarily.
with the feeling of hostility this question has
already engendered, be removed from our Town.
not only depriving US Of a prominent source of
revenue, which necessarily follows all Towns.
in which the business of the County is done. but
the very act granting corporate powers, would
necessarily provide for lndemnifyinp the County.
for all property within the limits Of The Incorpo.
ration. And where | would ask, is this almost
bankrupt community TO raise funds sufficient to
meet the e%xigency, snch a measure would entail
upon them.
Superadded to this, is an outlay on the con.
templated Borough Ferry Of some twenty thou
sand dollars for boats, &c, indispensable for its
projection can 1t be possible that citizens having.
as I doubt not they have, the interests of the
Town prominent in their acts, should be willing
to launch out on the broad stream Of experiment
and with the recklessness Of despair, throw awav
their last dollar in a fruitless opposition aoains,
