Can any thing be Done +?

We ask can any thing be done to put a
stop to the disgraceful rows which are almost
every night witnessed in our streets We
have before alluded to them, and had hoped
that we should not be under the necessity of
doing SO again-but we have been mistaken.
Things, instead of improving, are growing
worse, and we fear the most of our citizens
have little idea as to what extent things are
carried. Night before last, one of the most
brutal and disgusting fights that have ever
disgraced this or any other place, was witness
sed in our front street. 1t begun in or about
Victualling Cellar, where most of the rows
have commenced cellar which has been ad-
vertised to be kept son Temperance principles"
and the keeper himself was one of the parties
in the row. One man had his face beaten al
most to a jelly, and was so much injured that
it was necessary to take him home on a sled.
Now, we ask, again, can nothing be done to
prevent such scenes from being again enacted ;
Is there no power in the law to remove such q
nuisance, as cellar that is the scene of such
io"oylsm' y mere IS mot, he people ought TO
k''oeo 1t. An earthly hell should not be allow
ed in community like this. If something is
not done, we shall expect to bave something
worse than rows to record. Let things 90 on
as they have for two months past and we
shall expect to be called on to give the details
of brutal murder. The occurrence of night
before last was not far removed from it-a
blow or two more might have resulted in
death.

Another Message.

The President sent into Congress, on Tues
day of last week, message in relation to in
ternal Improvements, intended as veto, in
advance, on any bill Congress may wish to
pass for the Improvements of our rivers, lakes
and harbors, or as warning TO Congress not
to pass such bills. He takes ground against
all improvements. He holds them all to be
unconstitutional. Government has the right
he holds, to collect the revenue on our lakes
that is, to tax our commerce there, but no
right to protect that commerce. Nothing is
constitutional with President Polk that does
not infict misery in some way on the human
race. and does not tend to strengthen slavery.
The Boston Mail says:
at is estimated that property has been lost
the past season, for the want of those improve
ments, more than sufficient to meet the ex-
penditures contemplated in the bill which the
President has vetoed. The incipient growl-
idgs of discomfort are already heard from the
western members, and they will grow louder
as the session advances"

We fear that our beautiful Mohawk, ,

We fear that our beautiful Mohawk, whose
praises poets have sung, is falling into bad
habits. Instances Of its getting high are
uncommonly frequent of late. The flats bear
evidence that it is "half seas over" to. day.
The only reason we hear assigned for these
frequent irregularities is the state of the
weather. Utica Gazette.

" The John Donkey

We have received the first number of "The
John Donkey" another member of the Punch
family how we'll it will sustain the dignity
of that illustrious house, remains to be seen.
The Donkey publishes a report of the Presi-
dents Message in this number, which differs
somewhat from the generally received version
but does his Excellcncy infinitely more credit,
insomuch as it adheres more closely TO the
truth. We give few extracts from the Don
keys report, that our readers may have a
chance to compare the two, and Judge for
themselves which is genuine:
"Fe17oo Citizens Of tie Senate and House of
Representatives. A bountiful Providence has
smiled upon us. Plenty Tolls at full length
upon our fertile prairies; every clerk suspect
cd of an opposition in the way of politics has
been promptly removed; and Mr. Thomas
Ritchie has been mercfully spared to us"
al would recommend to your notice the
pitiablc condition of the various sub .treasur-
ers. Owing to the present lamenta5le want
of funds, there is so little in the hands of these
worthy officers, that there is positively moth
ing of moment to decamp with. In the Ian
guage of one of my llustrious predecessors,
'thier suferings is intolerable.'"
"The disturbed state of our domestic rela-
tons, regret to say, still continues. In con-
sequence of my utter inability to find places
f,r all your nephews and cousins, the Presi-
dental mansion has been in any state save
that of quietude-and applicants have looked
quite black at the White House. The large
number of new military offices, will afford me
an opportunity--to be eagerly embraced-to
