The Progress of Events.

Events are hurrying us along. With all the
aids of steam and electricity, we can scarcely
keep pace with the momentum Of the age The
current of annexation SETS heavily into the Sc
nate-it is spreading over the land 1t oversha-
dows the south like gloomy cioud-it over
spreads the northwest, tinged with the light of
the reflected sun, giving it fringe Of silver and
gold II is the apple of discord, for which states
men are using all their arts and politicians all the
jugg cry of the craft. Il threatens again 10 sweep
over the lend like a tornado, leaving, perhaps, a
purer atmosphere behind; but leaving also many
OF the tallesi trees PROSTATE and shattered upon
the earth.
The Taylor men do not give ND the field. They
have ivrm- no centrel organization. only be-
cause they have no organized central nucleus;
but they are not idle, as the speech In the House
TO-DAY will prove. 1t is now expected that nei-
Their Mr.. Clay nor Gen. Taylor will stand in the
way of each other, If either be nominated by the
wings. But of this il is best not be too confident
Some OF the democrats, we understand, had a
caucus meeting tonight, on the subject of the
Presidency. Nothing, we believe, was done,
except TO agree 10 another meeting at an early
day.
There was meeting tonight at Jackson
Hall, Of the Democracy. John Brough, of Ohio,
Zone OF the boundary commissioners between
Ohio and Virginia, and editor Of the Cincinnati
Enquirer was the orator of the evening He
made strong speech in support of the war
:" indemnities for the past, and security for the
future Including annexation. He ap-
piauGed 10 the echo. Annexation is assuming a
pa pable shape 1t is becoming the question of
the day, and the hesitation OF Congress TO act
gives II strength.
We had rumors of peace this morning, and
there Is yet chance for II. We must have
peace soon, or the game IS up, and the issue will
become the whole of Mexico. THE Doctor.

Termination Of Dcb0te-A Gun Brig, &c.
1t is truly gratifying that the debate on the
Presidents message is TO be terminated on We'd
nesday afternoon. We have had surfeit OF
speeches about the war, designed more for Bun
combe than TO convince those who impatiently
listen. The same arguments which were made
use OF during the last session. are repeated by the
new members of the present Congress and thus,
for fear the people will forget them, they are
reiterated.
The government has engaged Captain Lasby, of
this city, to build gun brig. We saw beauti-
fu timber intended for the keel about sixty feet
In length.

Attempted Suicide.

<hHeHtpVed SutCtde.
Quite a sensation has been created in town by
the attempted suicide Of a wealthy citizen, Mr.
John Thornton. Mental alienation was undoubt-
eddy the cause ofthe rash act, though rumors have
gained circulation, and some of them publicity,
through the city papers, which would attribute
and the chagrin growing out of unfortunate
speculations.
Mr.. Thornton is worth probably half million
OF dollars; and, as is frequently the case with
misers, has neither "chld nor chick" He
lived alone, until within short time previous to
his attempt at self destruction His health de-
clining, he was induced to quit his solitude and
Yesterday morning, during the absence Of atten-
dants, he procured bowie knife, and inflicted,
as it is thought, a mortal injury on his person.
He is yet alive, but no hope Is entertained for
his recovery.
We have an abundance of mud out this way,
and mail semi occasionally. ARGUS.
