| In looking over your valuable paper OF the 9th
instant, there is an article under the above cap
uon, with statements which, although true in tho
main, are decidedly false with regard 10 the u. 8.
revenue cutter Jackson. IL states that "thc Of
hcers of the u. 5. revenue cutter Jackson at that
time at anchor in shore, witnessed the scene, but
would not venture to their rescue" As | hap
pened to be on board the Charles Wharton in the
capacity OF acting quarter master sergeant, at the
time, am happy TO have it in my power TO refute
the ungenerous charge brought against the officers
of the Jackson. When we went ashore on Muller
Key the weather was good, although there was q
stiff breese blowing, and some thing OF swell, ow-
ing to the shoal water in which our ship lay.
Captain Rodgers, who, by the way, is very skill
ful officer, went to work Immediately to relieve
the ship one Of the anchors was carried out asten
some two hundred fathoms, and after throwing
about hundred barrels of sourcrout and other
stores overheard to tighten her, he tired 10 heave
her OIL; but she was hard and fast, every swell set
ting her further on the reef II was then (about
Blk oclock in the afterneon,) that signal was set
and minute guns Erred for relief No relief came,
however, tina, night but at daylight the next morn
ing one OF the boats from the Jackson was seen
pulling directly through the breakers for US, the
imminent peril OF those In the boat. AS soon as
the officer boarded us and ascertained our situa-
ton, he cheerfuy offered Captain Rodgers, in be-
halt of all on board the Jackson, whatever aid il
wasin their power TO give US More than one half
our men were sent on board the cutter, and the
next day we were safely Ian ied upon Eggmont
Key, from whence We were taken by steamboat to
Tampa Bay. While we remained on board the
Jackson we shared alike with her crew the rations
issued to them, the officers doing all their power
TO render comfortable The claim made BY
Captain Smith, of the Coasting Trader, is very
just, as his vessel was detained several days, and
no doubt lost great portion of her cargo. But,
sir, have we not also. who were soldiers employed
in the service Of the United States an equal claim
on the government tor losses sustained by the
wreck OF the Charles Wharton, whereby we were
deprived OF all we had save what we stoed in At
Cape Sable, where We built large fertilization

neral Thomas Lawson, he promised US repeatedly
that we should be remunerated for our Losses, and
that he would use his influence to attain that end.

your paper says, like other and similar cases, it
still remains undone. W. w.

PROPOSED REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE
Che report here suggests to the Legislature as a

Of bonds for each alien passenger arriving at this
port, is directed TO be paid to the health commits
sioner, whose receipt thereof is made a discharge
from the requirement of bonds from owners or con-
senees.
The health commissioner Is required TO pay over,
daily, the money so received to the city chambe r
lain, (as the treasurer OF the fund with an account
thereof. AS a compensation, in lieu Of fees and
per cen,age, the Health Commissioner receives by
law salary Of 80 500 per annum, TO be paid by the
Commissioners Of Emigration No other duty in
regard 10 this matter - expressly required OF thus

that he should take all the proper precautions and

to the fund OF 3d. 02 90 by reason ct repeated non
payments Of Communication tor passengers who had
arrived in several foreign vessels, consigned 10 a
house which has since become insolyent.
1t therefore appears that the intervention OF the
Health Commissioner, as a receiving officer al q
large compensation, adds nothing TO the certainty
or EMERGENCY OF the collection. The other duties
81 the Health Commit ssicner relate TO the general
concerns OF the public health, without any imme-
date connection with the concerns OF this COM

1t is therefore respectfully submitted, whether
the rights and interests OF the fund collected for a

The quantity Of sali inspected during the past

not meet the eye of the responsible officers; but
lam satisfied that as far as they can know,
nothing of the kind is in any form tolerated.
Tho afternoon was devoted to witnessing the
movements of the thronging thousands who
came to witness the balloon ascension. The
" cannonading' of fre-crackers did not now
disturb my spirit, for felt that God was above
all and would ultimately biing order out of all
this chaos. Tho ascension was a beautiful sight !;
though from fracture in the balloon, the jour
noy of the aeronaut was very short. The crowd
doubtless felt moro than compensated for all
their trouble, and it was gratifying to know
that there was very little intempcranco and no
accident from cannonading.
May the day soon como when our nation can
in sincerity and truth keep this annual jubilee,
not with the NJ &C of cannon, and shouts that
sound like those of battle, but with the deep,
heartfelt JOY of o.pcoplc cmoncipatcd not only
from political bondage, but from every sin.

Speech of Daniel Webster.


We are glad to have something to print
from Daniel Wcbsters multitudinous speech
es, which is really valuable. The following
comparative view of Our national history is
extracted from his speech on the 4th of fully,
on the occasion Of laying the corner stone
of the additions to the Capital.
Fellow Citizens-Fify eight years ago,
Washington stood OH this spot TO execute a
similar duty TO that which has now been per-
formed. lie then laid the corner stone of
the original capitol. lie was at the head of
the government at that time, weak in resourc-
es, burdenod with debt, just struggling into
political existence, aud ugitaicd by the heav-
ing waves, which were overturniug Euro
pe0n thrones. Since that time, astonishing
changes have been wrought in the condition
and prospects of the American nntion; md
degree of progress Witnessed, OF which
tie world can furnish no parallel. As we
review the course of Inat progress, wonder
and nnnzemcnt arrest our attention at every
step. The present occasion allowing OF no
heightened remarks, may yet, perhaps, admit
of n short comparative statement between
the important subject of national interest, as
they existed At that day, and as they now
exist. have adopted for this purpose, the
tabular form of statement, as being the most
brief and thC most acuratc.

The SANDWICH lsLANDs.-We are inform
ed that an Agent of the Government of the
Sandwich Islands is now at Washington, with
full power to negotiate important changes
in the relations between the Islands and the
United States. lie is the bearer Of two prop
ostions-one for the establishment ofan Amo-
rican Proiectorate over the Islands their Gov
ernment and internal organization remaining
the same as now; the other, for the abdici-
tion of the King, the complete resignation
of the authority into the hands Of the
people under suitable Republican forms and
the definite annexation OF the Islands TO
this Republic. These propositions are
submitted to our Government for its choice
and acceptance, with an earnest request
from the King aud all his Ministers, that
one or the other of them may he promptly
embraced and acted upon. This step we
have reason TO believe, has not been taken
without deliberation and perfect conviction
that il is both necessary aud timely.-7iib.
