Bvt. Brig. Genl. RILEY, U. s.. Army, has arrived
in this city, and taken lodgings at Browns Hotel.
This gallant officer has just returned from Caifor1
MIA, mot in as good health, we regret to see, as
when he left US in ls4s,) where he was charged
with delicate and most arduous duties, both civil
and military; and, judging from the tokens of his
fellow-ctizens in the now State Of California, his
administration of affairs in that quarter gave very
general satisfaction to the good people Of that State.
On laying down the rens Of civil government, with
which he had been temporarily charged, the vete-
ran soldier received from the Legislature, in the
name Of the People, gold box, beautifully wrought
and of much value, some testimonial of the high
respect entertained for him as man, and approval
OF his services as an officer. The inscription is
simple, but expressive Of the good feelings of the
citizens: Presented to Governor RILEY, Brig.
General in the Army, by the People of California"

ACT THE FIFTH.

We have this morning the happiness to announce
the passage through Congress of another healing
measure. The House Of Representatives on Thurs
day passed. without amendment, and by large ma
jority, the last member of the Senate's original
Compromise Bill, being the bill to provide for the
restitution of fugitive slaves. This is the fifth act
in the great drama of Paciication, and as such we
hail its enactment with sincere satisfaction Il is
measure which we have always thought due to
the requirements of the Constitution, and should
have been glad to see passed, as measure of duty
to the Southern States, even if it had not been de-
manded as one Of compromise and peace. But
while we regard the passage Of this bill as mea-
sure Of duty on the part of Congress, we feel none
the less respect and gratitude to those Representa-
tves OF the non-slaveholding States who have given
their support to it. In conserving to the measure
they doubtless surrendered some sectional feeling,
and do violence tomany sectional prejudces. There
FORE although justified by the constitution. we may
regard their consent as concession made in the
spirit Of concord on the altar of patriotism. It is
not strange, however, that the difficulties referred
to should have constrained many of the Northern
members to refuse their sanction to the bill.

We are happy to learn that the Post Office De-
partment has received official intelligence from the
General Post Office in London that /" hencefor-
ward all letters addressed to the United States, and
not directed to be otherwise sent, will be trans
united by the first packet, whether British or
United States, which is dispatched after they are
posted" and notice to the public, and instructions
to all postmasters, sub-postmasers, and letter re-
ceivers to this effect, has been issued by command
of Her Majesty's Postmaster General, with table
showing the day on which the British and United
States packets are appointed to be dispatched from
Liverpool and from Southampton.
This is gratifying termination of matter that
has been the subject Of very earnest discussion be-
tween the Post Office Departments Of the two Gov
ernments. 1t will be recollected that the British
Post Office has hitherto mailed exclusively by the
Cunard steamers, except when the writers have
directed the letters to be sent by the American
packets.

joined letter from CHARLES ]. JENKINS, ESQ.,, of
Georgia, declining the pest of Secretary of the
Interior, rendered to him by the President:
AUGUSTA, SEPTEMBER 3, 1850.
HoNoRED SIR: received day or two since,
through my friends, Judge Dawson and Mr..
TooMBs, message from you, rendering me the
distinguished honor of place in your Cabinet,
and, knowing you desired an early answer, replied
briefly by telegraph. l cannot, however, refrain
from expressing more distinctly and appropriately
my appreciation Of the obligation conferred, and
my regret that circumstances, from which cannot
escape, forbid a compliance with your wishes.
You will readily recognise the difficulty of closing
abruptly practice in the legal profession, continu-
ously pursued for nearly quarter of a century !;
but this difficulty is enhanced by the pressure of
several engagements Of peculiarly binding and con-
fdential obligation, at this moment resting upon
me.
Pardon the expression Of the deep solictude
feel for the success of an Administration with
which you have offered me most enviable con-
nexion, and which have an abiding confidence
is faithfully devoted to the promotion Of the highest
interests of our whole country.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,

ANOTHER RUMoRED CUBAN EXPEDITION.

There have been rumors flying about for some
J time past of another expedition being formed for
the purpose Of invading Cuba. The New York
correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer says:
81 heard to-day, from person who assumed know all
abb ut the subject that they true that immense
of M ney has been raised for the purpose and that many
seve thousand have already been enlisted for the
purpose Of making another descent that island.
"The GEM eman is recently from Havana, and in addition
what he said in reference the rumored expedition in
formed that at h twohids of the people in Cuba are
opposed any further POLITICAL connection with Spain"
To meet this rumor, if there be any truth in it,
nothing can come more apropos than the follow
ing exposition of the effect Of the late expedition
upon the standing Of the United States in the fam-
ly of Nations. We trus. that the Government of
the United States will be even more wide awake to
the renewal of this project, il its renewal be really
intended, than it was to the rs attempt against the
honor of this nation and against the peace of the
world.

APPOINTMENT BY THE PRESIDENT.
BIZ and NTH the adUice and consent effh. Senat,

ALEXANDER H. HI. STUART, of Virginia, TO b
Secretary of the Interior, cice Thomas M. I
McKennan, resigned.
The above appointment completes the Cabinet
of President FILLMORE, as we understand that Mr..
STUART accepts the Office, and will be here on
Monday, to enter on its duties. Second to no man
in Virginia, either in abilities or personal character,
all who know Mr.. STUART as well as we have the
pleasure Of knowing him, will deem the Admins
traton fortunate in having him for one of its
members; indeed, we may say that it has been
fortunate in every step it has taken in the compo-
sition of the Cabinet, in some respects pre-emi-
nently so. The annexed sketch of Mr.. Stuart's
character and public career, which we copy from
the Richmond Republican, is entirely just:
Hon. A. H. H. STuART.-The appointment of
this gentleman to the Department of the Interior
is one Of the very best which has been made by
the present Administration, judicious as it has
proved itselfin the exercise of the appointing pow
er. Mr.. Stuart is one of the most prominent and
efficient members of the Wing party in this State.
He was on the Harrison and Taylor Wing Electoral
tickets Of Virginia, and proved HIMSELF in the public
discussion between the orators of the two parties,
one OF the ablest, bestnformed, and most eloquent
Of the champions Of Wing principles. When
member of the Virginia Legislature, he occupied
high station as statesman and as debater. He
was elected member Of the House of Representa-
tives from the Augusta district in lS4l, and soon
acquired national reputation in that body, by
his services in effecting an organization Of the
House, after weeks Of confusion, and by uniform
ability, tact, eoquence, and dgnifed and courteous
bearing. Mr.. Stuart is gentleman of enlarged
nently national and conservative spirit. He occu-
pies high position at the bar Of Virginia for legal
knowledge and persuasive eloquence. We trust
that he will accept the appointment so Aatteringly
rendered him, for we feel sure that it is one which
will be most acceptable to the Wings Of Virginia,
and that he will fill it with great honor to himself,
and to the State Rich. Repub.
