Major General W. 0. Butler, passed our city
last night, on his way to Kentucky. He left
Monterey on the 18th ult., for a temporary abb
sence, in the hope Of a benefit to his health by
a short visit to his family in Kentucky. lie is
still suffering from his wound received in
%storming the town; but he is able to move
about with the assistance Of his stick and
crutch. He informs us that there is no truth
in the rumor of the advance of Santa Anna
with any portion of his army on or in the
direction Of Saldllo. He also brings the attest
new Of the health and situation Of 1t. Col.
McClung. 1t will be a great satisfaction to
the numerous friends of the latter to learn
from such undoubted authority, that he is slow
ly but surely recovering from the severe wound
which has caused him SO much suffering.
Gen Butler states that there is no doubt
of his ultimate restoration to health. Indeed
so sanguine is McClung of his being speedily
restored to his usual strength and health that
he has applied for the command Of one Of the
new regiments that Congress was expected to
and has ordered to be raised. McClung was
in the highest spirit and entertained no doubt

to some political identiications between the
institutions of England and Ireland. One thing
is clear that the church Of Ireland is not to be
interfered with. The statement OF ord John
Russell was most favorably received by the
House, and more especially BY the Irish land

we have been favored with a journal Of our

But in all this outcry about Mr.. Richie, it
seems to be f,rgottep that the Democratic ma
jority in the House, last year, expelled the re-
porter Of the New York Tribune for stating in
a letter which was published $50 miles from the
seat Of Government, that he saw a member
leave his seat and 90 behind the Speakers
chair, to eat a sausage! this was considered
sufficiently disrespectful to cause his expul-
sion from among the reporters-inflicting an
actual injury on that paper, BY depriviag it Of
access to the public debates of the House
whereas, when Mr.. Richie, as Mr., Clayton
SAYS, 0denounces them as traitors and as fellow
soldiers of Ampudia and Santa Anna" the
Senate is not at liberty to deny him the privi-
lege Of coming in among them, still leaving
him and his reporters all the privilege enjoyed
by any other journal OF to enter the gallery
with other citizehs-but then the Tribune was
a wing paper, and the Union is not-and there,
we suppose, is the differ nee.
The elf-compIaeency of tie venerable Edi-
tor is really entertaining; he says:
eff Jackson and Van Buren, survived the pro-
s~criptive edicts Of the Senate, surely WE have
no reason to consider ourselves demolished.''
This is very well-=the Union improves. II
General jackson and Mr. Van Buren,, small
men compared with the editors of the Union,
if they survived, of course, "oUR PERSON" is
immortal! Why did not the Senate think OIL
this, and therefore no. ~'venture'' to assault
sour persona" But they know better now,
But the richest part Of the joke is Mr.
Ritchie's nominating himself as Vice Presi'
dent in consequence of this proceeding of the
Senate, which he does in a published letter
from Richmond which confidently predicts
that it will have that result. Only to think o
it! THOMAS R1rcHIE, Tice President of III,
United States and President Of The Senate. "Ii
sounds WE'LL" We recollect hearing of q
Yankee skipper who, when he was first promo.
ted to the command Of a fishing schooner was
so tickled with his new title Of captain, thai
he hired a boy to shout into the bung-hole o.
an empty barrel, "C-a-p-t-a-i-n J-o-n-e-s," ii
order to produce greater sound and effect, anc
every time the boy shouted it-out, the pleased
skipper would e%xclaim, sit sounds very well :
but alas fdf the venerable editor of the Union
we fear ii will b~ealong time before he will have
occasion to hire any one to shout INTO the bung
h ,le--"Vice President Richie" or TO exclaim
with the honest Yankee, that sit sounds yer,

possibility can make a martyr, and the materia
lie certainly unsuitable for the manufacture o
