The FIREhEN-In noticing yesterday the fune-
raj of Mr.. McVey, we made slip of the pen in
stating that the Firemen were not in the habit of
honoring the funeral obsequies of their deceased
members, which of course our readers knew was
not the fact Our allusion should have been to the
unusual, though imposing manner of this funeral
which, in reality. was most beautiful spectacle
We know of no body of men more attentive than
than the Firemen to the necessities of their men,
bers while living, and more inclined to honor them
when dead.

JAMES L. FREANER.-The Philadelphia Inquirer
of the 25th ult notices the arrival of James L.
Freaner (Mustang) in that city, and says he will
shortly leave for California Uia Vera Cruz.
1t would appear that the California fever has
also seized our friend Capt George Kerr, Qate of
the Louisiana Mounted Men, as he writes US from
St Louis that he is making arrangements to leave
for that region early in the Spring, by the INDIE
pendence route. We have great faith in the goa
head ativeness of our friends Freaner and Kerr,
and will be disappointed if they do not take pro-
minent position in Uncle Sans new territory Our
best wishes go with them.

Mr.. WEBSTER AS A LITERARY MAN.-It is stated
that Mr.. Webster has been tor some time past
engaged IN writing history Of the administra-
ton OF General Washington, that will extend to
three volumes. This is a curious occupation for
Mr. Webster, and betokens the belief that his life
Of action has passed, and that period of medi.
tation and literary leisure has supervened. The
work will no doubt sell remarkably we'll HIS
debut as literary man will be looked forward to
with great deal o. interest. The administration
OF Washington was different from that OF any Sue
ceeding President. During his presidency, the
too parties were state Of confusion and agita-
ton, and did not dvelope their distinct purposes
or peculianties until the second term. There
has been no presidency that resembled Washing
tons. but Monroe's, which also presented fusion
of all partIes-from which, however, sprung the
elements of the two parties that have since strug.
gled for ascendapcy in this country. We doubt
whether Gen. Taylor's presidency will present
any features resembling those of the presidencies
Of Washington or Monroe. Gen. Tay lor himself.
from his lofty patriotism and purity of character,
may possess great rower and influence but party
spirit prevails to too great extent at this day, to
expect season Of quiet or repose. The discon.
tented and defeated politicians, both Northern and
Southern, are commencing a vehement struggle.
and they will no doubt present violent opposition
tothe administration of the hero of Buena Vista,

HONDURAS AND GUnTRMALA--Files of the Be-
llze, Honduras, Gazette have been received to the
18th ut. Advlces from the interior are very un-
satisfactory. Further insurreotionary movements
have occurred at Salama, and the whole country
thence to Guatemala, is in disturbed and unsafe
state. In Honduras there has been change of
government, and Omoa Is now in possession of
Senior Bustillio, as commandant.
YUCATAN We have received advces from tho
Interior of Yucatan, via Bacalsr, which represent
the Indians as again In the ascendant. Several
towns have been retaken by them. II Is also
stated that II they succeed IN retaking Ticash,
now closely besiegrd, they will at once proceed to
attack Merida - Observer, Dec. 9.
Our advlces are to the llth inst. The siege of
Teksk and Sotuta, by the Indians, had been aban-
dontd, In consequence OF the advance OF the
American volunteers and Yucateco troops, who
had also retaken Peto, and were rapidly advancing
on Tohosuca and BacsIar

TIKI TROUBLES IN Ono.-According to our latest

OHIO are nearly over. During the progress of that
local agitation, every now and then, we were fur.

would be shed, heads broken, and that a revolu
ton was certain We rather think that the mem.

In Peru we are all quiet, although there IS much
dissatisfaction among the lower order, as General

himself very unpopular No doubt change will

ready to take advantage of the first outbreak.
