To those Indebted to this Office.

The llth volume of this paper is near at hand, and upon looking over the subscrip- ton book, we find great many indebted to us for two, three, and four years subscrip- ton; and we now candidly ask such if they expect to be furnished with the paper for or intend to pay for it! Itrequires cash to carry on onr business, and we will be compelled, if ifpayment is not soon made, to strike the names of large number from our subscription book, and place the accounts in the hands of an officer for collection; it is out of the question for us to buy paper and
 ink and print newspapers for those who feel no disposition to pay for them.

 WHEREAS, this Board has learned with deep regret that the integrity of the laws and the dignity of the Commonwealth and city have been greatly impaired by the forcible rescue and abduction Of prisoner from the hands of an officer of the United States who had him in legal custody; there fore tis
 Ordered, That the City Marshal, under the instructions of the Mayor, be directed, whenever he shall be properly informed by a public officer of this State, or the United States, that there is danger that he shall be unlawfully obstructed in inc performance of his official duties by mob, and that he needs his assistance, immediately 10 repair to the place where it is apprehended said riot will be had, and there faithfully and truly, with the whole police force under his control, use the same, in the most energetic manner possible, in support of the law. and the maintenance of the public peace.

FROM BOSTON. From the Boston Courier of Feb. IS Measures for the Public Safety.

It is some consolation, amid the regret and modification occasioned by the affairs of Saturday last, to perceive that the City Government has begun to move in the business of providing further safeguards for the public peace. The Board of Aldermen yesterday passed an ordinance which will have the effect of removing whatever doubts the City Marshal might entertain of the propriety or legality of rendering as- sistance to the United States officers in their execution of the laws. It is quite certain that no citizen can feel secure at his own freside so long as he distrusts the power or the inclination of the city police to suppress tumult, riot, and resistance to law, in aN cases; and to preserve the public peace and guard against public danger, im dH circumstances. It is notorious that we have incendiary fanatics among us, who look with unboundcd exultation on the late

 CoNcREss.-Extract from letter from Washington:
 I've are creeping along here at snail's pace, killing off some great measures, and wasting our time shamefully. All is quiet here. New Orleans is the place for excite ments, explosions, confagrations, coups dictate, defalcations in banks, etc. The administration is very popular, and what is singular, there has not been strictly party vote taken during the session. Webster is universally admitted to be the great man of the age, and it is an unpardonable crime to say word against him, among all the Union men of both parties. Fillmore is also an admirable man-so bland, so unaf- fected in his manners, so determined to execute the laws, and carry out the Con- promise"
