The fate Of Captain Marcy aad his detachment
seems to be yet involved in some uncertainty. The
accounts do not altogether harmonic. We may
hope for the best. Yet, in any event. the state of
things which is disclosed by the possibility of such
n disaster-such a possibility having already as.
sumed the aspect of q probable occurrence-is suf
fcient to warn the Government of important du-
ties and responsibilities which are imposed upon
it by the exposed condition Of the south western
frontier. The Secretary OF War, in bis estimates
of the forces that would be necessary to meet the
requirements of the service, called for some two or
three additional regiments; and if this requistion
had been complied with by Congress the country
would not have been compelled to suffer even the
apprehension of such a calamity is reported of
Captain Marcy and his command. Democratic
Congress, prodigal enough in otbsr expenditures
refused the reasonable request of the Secretary of
War-a gentleman who never was identified with
the extremes Of party at any time, and who might
fairly be Supposed to have no other object in view
when he made his recommendation save the public
good and the particular interests Of the frontiers
which BY treaty stipulations and by our own obi
cations to our own citizens in those quarters the
Government was bound to protect.
great deal is said in the opposition journals
concerning the public expenditures under this ad-

OF rigmarolo and balderdash fitted for the use of
second and third rate newspapers and to inferior
journals generally Every expenditure and every
Government. since this Administration came into
power, has bad to pass under the scrutiny and to
obtain the sanction of a Democratic Congress. Let
the responsibility rest where it belongs. If De.
mocratic Congress has refused to make provision
for the defence of the western ami southwestern
frontiers, the delinquency should not be charged
upon the Executivc-especiaily when the fact is
known that the Executive called upon Congress to
make provision for that very emergency. The
administration Of Mr.. FILLMORE, thus far-as we
have no doubt it will continue to the end-is dis

LlBEaIA-The interest which has of late been
awakened among the free colored population of the
country, respecting the young and prosperous re-
public which their emigrant kindred have found
ed in Africa, cannot but be gratifying to those who
have watched the long and arduous struggles of the
colonization cause. In former years there seemed
to be apathy on the subject pervading the
States, and notwithstanding the most strenuous
efforts of the Colonization Society, very little pro.
gress was made; but the events Of few years past
have tended to kindle an interest which has be-
come diffused through all parts of the country. A
number of State governments have made appropri-
atoms OF money to aid the emigration, individual
contributions have increased, and the FREQ colored
people themselves have held numerous meetings
to procure information respecting the new repub-
lie, and deliberate whether they had not better
make preparations for immediate emigration
thitber. All the accounts we receive from Liberia
agree in representing its az one Of uninter
rupcd prosperity. All the letters written by emi.
grants who have had time to experience the bene-
fits Of the country, express full satisfaction with
the prospects before them. The government is con-
Quoted with prudence, economy, and sagacity
agriculture is thriving wonderfully, and other in

and more attention Native tribes are glad to seek
the protection fthe republic and thus civilization
and christianity are finding their way among the
