acting under my authority. 1t is be expected that
in the residue of the territory ceded to by Mexico,
the people residing there will at the time Of their
corporation into the Union State, settle all ques
tions Of domestic policy to suit Themselves.
No material Inconvenience will result from the
want for short period, Of government established
by Congress over that part of the territory which lies
eastward of the new State Of California; and the
pns for my opinion that New Mexico will at no
very distant period ask for admission into the Union
is common to all who have cared to make inquiries
on that subject. s>.-..
Seeing, then, that the question which now excites
such painful sensations in the country will, the
end, certainly be settled by the silent effect OF
of the action of Congress, again submit
nnal message of awaiting the salutary operation Of
those causes, believing that we shall thus avoid the
creation of geographical parties, and secure the har
mony OF feeling so necessary to the beneficial action
of political system. Connected as the Union is
with the remembrance of past happiness, the sense
of present blessings, and the hope of future peace and
prosperity, every dictate of wisdom, every feeling of
duty and every emotion of patriotism tend to inspire
fidelity and devotion to it, and admonsh cautious

GoRGEY's TaEAsoN-KossurH IN HIS OWN CouN-
try. A correspondent of the Duly Ne,us writes as
follows from Pesth:
The walls of Buda, the citadel of which overooks
the beautiful City of Pesth and its ansfuviaI shrub
are still in the condition in which they were left by
Gofgey, when battered previous to the final assault.
Buda is interesting the point where the empire
probably saved from destruction by the formidable
defense made by the gallant Heintze and the deter
mined dsobedience of Gorgey. On this subject peo-
pie here amused by the rank nonsense written by
rambling correspondent of The Times, who asserts
that Gorgey committed the grave fault of stopping to
besege Bnda nstead of pressing forward TO Vienna)
against his own inclination, and by the positive
der of Kossuth. Now, the very reverse is notorious
ly the case. Gorgey received peremptory instruc-
tions from Kossuth to leave corps of IL 900 to
invest Buda, and to press forward with his whole
force to Vienna and Omutz Gorgey did precisely the
contrary, and sat down with $4,000 men and 1000
hussars before Buda, which he lost his time by bat
tering with twelve Founders, and his attempting
to storm without having made breach. After these
failures Gorgey wrote to Kossuh proposing aban-
don the siege, and kossuth then replied that after
and after such failure Buda must be taken at any
cost. battering train was then brought up, and
the place succumbed This is the real version of the
transaction, which, if am not mistaken, has been
given already in your columns. The very order to
march on Vienna addressed to Gorgey in the first in
stance have read in Turkey. 1t is matter Of hsto-
~ already, and wish only to observe that find
ry one here perfectly cognizant of the fact my
self, that am at loss to know whence the Times
correspondent can have derived his mis-informaton.

A few weeks back even such demonstration would
have had serious consequences, but the government
has its hands too full to continue noticing such out

people treat it with contempt, as mere insulting Sc
