COLONEL DoNIPIIAN.-This brave soldier, the
modern Xenophon, paid US a visit yesterday, and
it afforded us much pleasure to converse with one
who SO signally distinguished himself during the
late war, by his deeds of daring, and brilliant
achievements, under the most trying circumstances
Separated from the main body of the army-quar-
tered in Upper Calfornla-this brave officer, with
less than thousand men, fought their way
through New Mexico, distance of more than
three thousand miles, inhabited only by enemies,
and those principally consisting of savages-
marching, too, through fields of snow, and over
snow-capped mountains; and when their further
progress was contested by force, some thousands
strong, with food and ammunition at their COM
mand the 'valor OF the Western hero shone forth;
and, on being commanded by the bearer of
"black" flag. to appear. before the, "gene-
timation that unless the order was COM
Piled with, the enemy would charge and take
him. and then neither ask nor give quarters; the
gallant Colonel, "Rough and Ready" like, replied,
by telling the messenger that they might 'charge,
and be id" The glorious victories won by the
Missouri volunteers, at Ell Paso, Sacramento, &C.,
are too fresh in the minds OF our readers, however,
to require further illusions to them. Suffice to
say, that Col. Donlphan, and his brave soldiers,
have returned to the peaceful abodes OF their friends
and grateful countrymen, and trust that they may
long enjoy the laurels which they have won in the
conflict that has past.
Col Doniphan in person, is about six feet four
inches high, of iron frame, and prominent features
free from ostentaton at the same time aifable and
gentlemanly in his manners. With regard to his
literary attainnents, we would refer to report of
his address delivered before the Cadets of the Uni
ted States Military Academy, at West Point, at the
late annual examination, and published in the He
raH on Saturday last. The Colonel and his lady,

Summary.

The Barnburners' Convention was organized at
Utica yesterday. Col Samuel Young was chosen
President. A letter from ex-President Van Buren,
was read. He endorses all the doctrines promul-
gated by young John, on the Wimot provso, &c.
They will probably make nomination for the
Presidency to-day.
A stirring and lively debate transpired in the Sc
nate yesterday, on the Oregon bill Mr. Foote was
very socitous of obtaining some knowledge of
the principles of General Taylor-which none
seemed prepared to glve-and declared that Con-
gress must not adjourn until the wings show their
hands on the Wilmot proviso.
The proceedings in Congress were, altogether,
very interesting. They will be found in our de-
spatches below

MAJOR JACK DOWNING AGAIN IN TIE FIELp.--We
give in another column, letter from Major ia elk
Downing. Major Jack seems to be rather favora-
BILE to General Taylor, but he has lost much of the
wit which he had in former days, whilst he writes
great deal of twaddle. We recommend Major
Jack Downing hereafter to retire to the shades Of
private life. He may be able to entertain there a
small party if he has enough of the "black strap
to elevate his ideas. lie is getting dali and prosy
in his old age. He ought TO die and allow us to
write his epitaph.

INTELLIGENCE FROM VENEzUELA.-A letter from
highly intelligent American merchant of Mara
caibo, Venezuela, dated May 22d, contains the
following interesting information -
This day (22d May the inhabitants Of Maracaibo
are embarkng all their troops on board Ct their fleet
and other vessels on the lake They intend give up
the CITY OF Marasapo without any hghting-to block
to keep possession of the lake and fort San Carlos is
TO be kept by the Maracaberos in opposition TO Mona
gas The intention Is 10 starve him of Maracabo
or force him into capituation. General Paez is in
Boeono and will not probably advance Maracaibo
nntil he has an efficient force If Monagas falls into
the snare laid out for him he will prove greater hobo
than what he is even supposed 20 be at all events
rs in critical situation and the moment when he sup
poses himself most successful may prove the most dis
astrous TO him IL will not be the first time that the
'Maracaiberos' have used up, in a similar manner
considerable forces sent against them
The above will probably explain the apparently
strange conduct of the feet opposed to Monagas.

EPlsToLARY BREvITY.-The ancents, especially
the Greecians and Romans, prided themselves on
the brevity of their epistolary correspondence.
julius Caesar, after his invasion of Gaul, sent
back the celebrated despatch, reni, vidi, vici !;
but we apprehend that neither the Grecians nor
the Romans OF ancient times cxcel!ed the Ame-
means OF the present day in breviy of correspon-
dence.
AS proof we submit the following letters, which
are as important as the letters which either the
Greeks or Romans wrote -

TAYLOR AND FILLMORE.

Seventy.two years ago, in a then quiet
and obscure city of one Of our Provinces,
there was assembled body Of Wings,
charged with celebrating on subjects in
voving issues of no less magnitude, than
the destiny of Nation. Deeply imbued
with the spirit of liberty. and smarting I'M
der the wrongs and insults to which cru
ell and hearlless Sovereign had subjected
them, these Patriots Of '76, resolved "to
know their rights. and knowing, dare main
tain them" Embodying in themselves the
sentiments of the Wings of the different
colonies, they determined faithfully to re-
fleet these sentiments, even though their
avowa should cost them their lives. and
accordingly, with a prayer upon their lips
invoking the God Of justice and of battles
to sanctify the deed, they boldly burst the
letters which the tyrant had forged for
them, and proclaimed their country Stree
and independent" of his crown! The NOR
al sublimty and benefcen, results of this
Declaration of Independence find no par.
allie in the history Of Nations.
And yet not unlike the Wing Convention
of l776 in many respects, was the Wing
Convention of lS4s. Called together in
the same city, by the same love of liberty
which swelled the bosoms of their patriot
ic predecessors; grooming like them under
f the INSTRUMENTATION of a government
professedly Instituted for the !good of all
but wan,only prostituted to subserve The
/ interests of party; beholding the fountains
5 of justice corrupted, the constitution bro

, will of the people condemned, the rights o
E the private citizen infringed; after rallyinl
y like their fathers in the sternness of patri
y otism to correct these abuses, but like then
0 also in the moment of their keenest an
], guish, beholding their efforts in the unequa
e struggle utterly hopeless; and, when the las
= ray of hope seemed to have gone out, fall

ID pair overwhelm, this patriotic body respor

my fellow. citizens of Harrison county,

cordial reception which they have this day
