Yesterday morning between n'ne aud
ten o'clock, dcserter from Jefferson
Barracks was started up somewhere down
on Main street, on the lcvee, by pur-
suing Sergeant and took flight up Locust
street. Pursuit was given by the othcer
and several of the police, al! crying at
the top Of their voices, stop tibet stop
thief" but the fellow run like gazclle,
taking the middle OF the street for his
race course, and at the corner OF Third
stree, coming out handsomely ahead --
Here, he took up towards the City Hotel,
along the side pavement, and as he came
TO Madden's Exchange, opposite Grum-
ley's, lodged in the door, flew through
the entire length of the house, out into
the back yard, and from the back yard to
the alley, from which place all trace OF
him was lost. The fellow showed
very fine escaping taste by yelling also
as did his pursurers behind him, "StoF
thief! Stop thief" lie ran with p's'o
ia his hand, and had he been overtaken
would doubtless have shot somebody

in different parts of the House the galleries
were crowded with eager spectators; all
sorts Of propositions and amendments were
made and so difficult was it to maintain
or restore decorum, that the Speaker was at
times obliged to declare a suspension of leg

bill of the last session for this measure; and
another, Mr.. Dean, Of this State-gave no

- puR New PIECE OF MExICo.--A writer in
the Charleston Courier, who has just had an
interview with Mr.. Gadsden, states that the
terms of treaty recently concluded with
Mexico are substantially in accordance with
the outline heretofore published. For the
sum of 100000, 900, Mexico surrenders all
claim for indemnity under the llth article
Of the Treaty of Guadalupe, by which the
United States stipulated to restrain the In
dams within Our territory from committing
depredakions within the Mexicans, and also
cedes to us an immense tract of country,
embracing part of chihuahua and about a
tlsird of the Department of Sonora where
are valuable gold mines. and including also
The Messilla Valley. The whole territory
rEded, is 100000 acres; equal in extent
10 the, State of New York, Connecticut,
Rhode Island and Massachusetts. 1t ex-
tends from the Rio Grande to or near to the
Gulf Of California. The Peninsula Of Cali
tornia, commonly called Lower California,
is otincluded. The territory thus acquir-
ed affords an easy route for ii railroad from
Texas to the Pacific. 1t is proposed to form
il into Territory, to be called Arresonia.

Fearing some disturbance if the embarka-

Monsignor Bedini, attended by committee
Of Catholic clergymen, was received on board

The steamer Active left her wharf at
Whitehall, at 10 o'clock yesterday morning,
and proceeded to Clifton dock, where she lay
till the Atlantic came by, which was few
minutes after o'clock.
14 The steamer, when opposite the landing,
stopped her engine, and Bedini was received
on board the Active, and thence conveyed
to the Atlantic.
AS soon as ne stepped on the deck of the
vessel, she fired gun, the engine was put
in motion and she stood out for sea.
AS soon as the Nuncio was taken on
board the Atlantic, the Steamboat Active
proceeded TO her dock at Whitehall where
she landed at 9 o'clock.

Capt. CREIGHTON. worthy officer
will be so overloaded with presents and res
olutions Of thankfulness from every section
of the country, that he will be scarcely able
to take them all home with him. Never
could he have anticipated, when laying by
the wreck of the San Francisco, that he
would in short time be so distinguished Il
man, that the conqueror Of Lundy's Lane
and Cherubusco would seek to shake him
by the hand. He will go home to his wife,
if he have one, and display the greatest
number of trophies that ever resulted from
one voyage. And yet what has Captain
Creighton done that entities him to so much
distinction and honor? He did nothing
more than his duty, and is doing ones duty
so rare al occurrence, that it should entitle
man to immortality?
We honor The noble and daring sailor
who, disregarding his own life, would haz-
ard it to save others; and Capt Creighton,
for the noble sentiment 4" Belcheery boys :;
I'll lay by you till sink!' deserves all hon
or and praise. In the midst, however, of
showering favors upon him, it may be we'll
to remember how we treat Others who, BY
their brave acts, are entitled to remembrance,
particularly when want, with his pinching
lngerS, is fastened upon tnem. lnere are
now in this city nine of the Dartmour pris-
oners who were taken during the last war
with England. These men are now old,
poor, and with many Of them poverty is a
close companion. Some are said to be really
in want, yet no,one has groat for them.
After defending their country, they are cast
off to die with the bitter reflection that they
sacrificed their health and hazarded their
life for an ungrateiel nation.--LN. Y. Day

IMPORTANT DECISION OF THE SCHOOL Com
MISSIONER !--READ,5 MARK, AND INwARDLY
DIGEST THE Ohio State Democrat pub
fishes a reply of H. H.oBarney the state
commissioner of common schools, to ques-
ton proposed to him by number of the
citizens of Brown county, whether, on New
Years morning, scholars were legally author
lied to bar out the master and resist the de
mand of the directors and teacher to let him
in without treat of two dollars worth OF
refreshments. 1t seems that this mode OF
procedure on the part of the scholars has
been practiced from time immemorial and
on the last New Years day, when the teach
er of a school in Brown county refused to
pay the sum, the boys were upheld III their
demand by many of their parents and some
of the magistrates Of the county, aud the
teacher was at length obliged to comply
Mr.. Barney decided that in such cases the
boys were trespassers, and liable to the same
amount Of damages os they would be at the
suit of private citizen, whose dwelling they
should close against him with a view Of ex-
torting money.
