LETTER FROM MIR. WEBSTER.

MEssRs. GALES 4 SEAToN- Gentle
men observe that in debate in the
Senate as reported IN the Baltimore
Sun, one day last week, the following
Paragraph appears in II spee' h Of Mr..
ManguIn, Of North Carolina
MIR. Mangum said perhaps there
were occasional petty pallry tricks com
mitted in the Departments. Very re-
Gently one had been committed, and
that, too, by the great man Of the Wing
Lar,y--he meant the Secretary OF Stale
"a trick unworthy Of hiu,, unworthy Of
his position, and dlsgraceiul TO his party
so far as he could affect il, which was
but to slight extent, and which short
ly would not be I" any extent"
Uponinquiring. through friend, ]
learn from MIR. Mangum that his obser-
vations were intended to apply to the
appointment Of the Wilmington Com
mercidi, conducted by Mr.. Lorihg, as Il
paper to publish the laws IN North Car.
DINA and TO the appointment ioI the
same purpose OF the Knoxville Uhig, in
Tennessee.
The Wilmington Commercial was ap.
pointed as a paper to publish the laws
upon what was esteemed good Wing
authority and if Mr.. Mangum had
seen fit to consult the members of Con-
grcss from his own State, including ell
ulent Wings he would have learned
that there is not more respectable jour
nal in North Carolina than the Will
mington Commercial, that the editor
Mr.. Loring, sis highly respectable
man, ofirreproachabie character )" and,
that his paper has the largest circulation
Of any Wing paper published in Will
mington, the most popuous and far the
most commercial city or town in North
Carolina. refer Mr.. Mangum on this
subject to lis speeches Ia Congress.
AS to the appointment OF the Kno:r-
riIe Wig as one oi. the papers TO pub
lish the laws 10 Tennes see, i, is sufficient
to say that that appointment was made
by me upon the exl ress recommends
ton ol majority Of the " hig members
OF Congress from that State.
So far as remember, | never read IL
single number Of either oi these newspn-
pers.
hope may be pardoned, under the
circumstances, for this obtrusion on the
public. so unusual with me, TO defend
my official conduct against mere rand III
vituperation. -

PHILOSOPHY or DRowiEo.--An Eng.
lish newspaper has the following sug-
gesIions TO people who may be in dan
ger Of drowning. They are something
like those before published and amount,
only TO this TO keep the face well, up

"Man is the only animal that browns
naturally. lie does SO because he is
endowed with reason, tha, is TO say,
with Il large spherical brain, With "a
skull! on it which rises above his nose.
II he tails into deep water, 10 spite fhis
great b ain he has no, presence OF mind
enough to stick his nose on. and keep il
out As he might. asily do, but his heavy
head: like stone. presses his nose uD-
der water, so that on the whcle he be-
comes SO much heavier than water as
to sink. While The lungs are filed
with air the body is lighter than ito bulk
Of wafer, and OF course swims just as an
iron vessel does all, therefore, that 10
necessary 10 keep person from drown
ing in deep water i. 10 keep the water
out Of the lungs. Suppose yourself a
bottle, your nose is tie nozzel OF the
bottle, and mus, be kept out of the water,
All you need to do 10 secure this, 10 10
clasp your hands behind your back, and
and point your nose to the top Of tho
heavens, and keep perfectly still. Your
nose will never by under water to tho
end of time unless you raise your brain,
hand knee, or foot h CHER than It. Keep
still, with your nose turned up With per.
iect impudence, and you are safe. This
will do in tolerably still water; in bois-
ferrous water, you will need little OF
the art Of swimining."
