WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. %, 1858.
We have carefully examined and considered the
facts connected with the recent difficulty between
Gen. Cullom and Mr.. Clay, and we are of opinion
that Gen. Cullom acted under mistaken Impressions
and was in the wrong, and that the honor of both
parties demands that Gen. Cullom shall make a
satisfactory apology to Mr.. Clay.
And we further decide that the acceptance of
these terms of settlement by Gen. Cullom and the
seconds of the parties shall be considered compli-
ance herewith and restore the former relations of
eparties.

WASHINGTON, Jan. ST. Correspondence of
Eueniny Post.)-The Senate Committee on
Commerce have agreed to bring in bill re-
pealing the fishing bounties.
New England is ignored on the Committee
of Ways and Means, and Crawford of Georgia
is appointed in place of Banks, leaving but
one Republican on it. Great indignation is
expressed. The Committee on Invalid PEN
sions have agreed to report a bill granting
pensions to all officers in the last war.
1t appears from the Treasurers weekly
statement for the week ending yesterday,
that the amount in the Treasury, subject to
draft, is upwards of So, 900 600; on deposit,
over $7OOO,OOO; of drafts drawn, but not
paid, $4,000 900; and of receipts for the week
$926.OOO
The War Department discredits the alleged
attack upon Col. Cooks command. No ac-
ton has been taken by the Navy Department
towards court martialing Chatard. Captain
Engle will leave for the home squadron on
the goth, with dispatches.
The only celebration here of the battle of
New Orleans was the firing Of salute, and
supper by the Jackson Democratic Associa-
ton.

AN ARGUMENT FOR FILLIBUsTERING.-Hen-
ningsen, Walkers associate, has addressed a
letter to Senator Toombs, intended to con-
vince the American people that it is their duty
and policy to encourage fllibustering The
Characterization, that is, the conquest and
annexation of Central America; he regards as
the manifest destiny of the United States
he Hies first for sanction TO the worthless of
the Jewish Scriptures-and what crime has
ever been committed that has not sought ref
uge there? COL Henmngsen asks:
d" What was Moses but hllibuster, whose
mission was to dispossess tribes, retrograding
Cor whose civilization was corrupting before
matured), and to plant in their stead another
people whose subsequent annals show them
to have been at least in no wise superior to
our own? What were the Normans, from
whom the soyereigns of Great Britain affect
to derive their descent and portion of their
title to the crown, but ilibusters? What
were the Pilgrim Fathers but tillibusters
What State, what Territory, in this Union,
has not been fllibusteIed from the Indians,
or purchased from those who had fillibustered
1t Have ever i've years elapsed down to the
present time, since the landing of the Pilgrim
Fathers, that some Of the monarchies of Eu-
rope have not, somewhere, been fillibustering
something's
We want Cuba, and as we cannot purchase
it, the fllibuster colonel says, We must take
1t by force, and private enterprise cannot ac-
complsh it better than the Government. But
the moral part OF this argument is not origi-
nal with Henningsen. The credit of it belongs
to one of Mr.. Buchanan's diplomatic produc-
tons, famous as the Ostend Manifesto. The
| possession of Nicaragua, Henningsen init
mates, though he does not say it distinctly, is
n stem towards the nonnupsf of Dnbo -,
that light Walkers enterprise assumes great
national Importance, for according to our
| hllibuster statesman, "the past and present of
this country, its obvious interests as a whole,
the especial interests Of the South, the growing
conviction Of far seeing men, who look to the
integrity of the Union, all point to the future
adoption Of an American policy on this CONT
nent and to extension Southwards, "-Sprinq-

SATURDAY, JANUARY ., 1858.
Lnn1s1 .r1rn. = There vas an expeetatiOn,

LEo1sLArrvE. - There was an expectation,
Yesterday. that the presiding officers of the two
branches Of the Legislature would be able TO an
poupce the standing committees, this morning.
Such an evidence of industry and application
would be highly creditable to them, and would
rebound greatly to the benefit Of the State. Last
wear the committees were announced on Friday
Of the second week Of the session. If they should
be announced today. or even on Monday morn
ing, it would for all practical purposes, be equal
to the gain of weeF's time last year.
Rev. Warren Burton was elected Chaplain to
the House, yesterday. Todayis assigned for the
same purpose in the Senate. The election of
Sergeant alarms was postponed in both branch
es, yesterday, until Tuesday next So far as Ma
ior Stevens's individual bearing toward the mem
bsrs and his intercourse with them is concerned,
no fault is found. But the amount Of patronage
in his handsris very large, and it is objected to
him, that all his sppoiniees, Of which there
large number, are, to man, opponents of the
State administration, and some of them offensive
" so, and it is argued that it requires something
more than common magnanimity, in any political
body. to permit themselves, in within their
own control, to be surrounded by servants, Of
whom, they have reason to believe, they are all
the time acting as political spies upon them.
We present this, not our statement of the case,
but as the reasons which are given, why Major
Stevens should not be reelected, unless he con-
sents to change portion of his subordinates.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. S.-A Convention of
soldier of the war of 1912 was held here to-
day. A memorial was adopted asking Con-
gress to make appropriations to the soldiers
of the war of 1872 and of the frontier Indian
wars of the same period. 1t was stated by
several speakers that number of the men
who composed the armies in the West at that
time are now in necessitous circumstances,
and that it is no more than justice that Con-
gress should afford them pecuniary aid. At
ter mutual salutations and renewal of old &C.
quaintances, the convention adjourned to
meet again on the 4th of March next.

AN INTERESTING RELIC OF THE PAST Upon
the farm of Mr.. Gideon 2. Hathaway, in the
SoutherlY part of Freetown, there is a deep
hollow, surrounded upon all sides by hills
which have been in turns planted and pas
tured for Mt least one hundred and fifty years.
Quite recently it occurred to the mind of the
owner that this hollow, receiving, as it had
done, the constant washings of the surround
ing hills for century and half, must be
rich in vegetable deposits. He accordingly
commenced the removal Of the soil, which
consisted of dark colored vegetable mold,
deepening on all sides as it approached the
centre, where it was some six OF eight feet
thick. He had not proceeded far ere he be.
gan to discover Cfrmly embedded in what had
originally been the bottom of the hollow
large, fiat stepping stones leading toward the
centre, where he found living spring of ex-
cellent water, nicely walled up with large fiat
stones set up edgewlse. Near the spring lay
stone pestle (some two feet in length) such
an one as was commonly used by the Indians
in pounding their parched corn preparatory to
making the Indian meal cake.
From the pains taken to make the spring
convenient Of access. we are led to conclude
that this must have been spot frequently re-
sorted TO by the aborignes when upon hunt.
ing and other expeditions, and here for CEN
turles probably, they, when wearied, were
wont to stop and take a cooling draught of
natures healthy beverage, long before the
white mans axe was heard in their forests, or
the curse of his fre-wate had been felt in
their iron constitutions.
That this was not the work of white men
we conclude from the fact that the land was
in the possession of Mr.. Hathaway's great
grandfather, and the residence of his father,
now living, some eighty years ago, and that
the oldest inhabitant had no knowledge of nor
ever heard from tradition the existence of
this spring. Taunton Gazette.

The poet Bryant is now making the tour Of
Spain. Madrid journal makes the following
complimentary notice of him;
"William Cullen Bryant, one of the greatest
poets Of the age, and undoubtedly the first
among the Anglo American poets, has arrived in
Madrid
1t is impossible to SEE this person without feel
ings Of the deepest affection and respect. His
face, whose long beard has that soft whiteness
that light hair lends to age in the North, wears
certain expression that is only met with in beings
equally endowed with genius and sensibility.
There is in his sweet smile slight tnge of bitter
ness, which reveals at once the struggle that
goodness and wisdom have always sustained with
malice and ignorance.
There is something sad in his look, which
shows the martyrdom Of spirit launched into
the midst Of the material enterprise of this man
ufacturng and commercial age.
The poems of Mr., Bryant might be classed with
those Of Rioia. They are few in number and are
all Of the first order.
The nobeness of his thoughts, the truth of his
descriptions, the delicacy and tenderness of his
affections, are only equalled by Rioa.
Welcome to our country he, this son of the
New World and God grant that these chimes
where his active intelligence comes to seek new
impressions, may be propitiOus."

The Gorernor Of MnrrInnd snuhhed.

BALTIMoRB, Jan. 8.-When the message of
Gov. Ligen was announced in the House, to-
day, motion was made that it be not receiv-
ed, and the motion was carried by vote of
43 to 81. This action was on account of the
expressions contained in it, regarding the
American party, and the Governor expressing
the opinion that the city members were elect
ed by fraud and violence. The message hav-
ing been published in advance of its being
sent to the Legislature, the members thus OBJ
tanned knowledge of its contents, and the ma
jority decided to vote against its reception.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. S.-The Republican has just
received a letter from Fort Kearney, dated the
23d uit., stating that Col. Johnson was at
Fort Bridgsr. Nov. Goth. Col. Cook, with his
whole command, had also arrived The grass
had all been burnt, and the animals were dy-
ing at the rate of one hundred DAY. The
Mormons were terrifying al the passes lead
ing to Salt Lake City. Jesse Jones, agent of
Majors & Bassett, had been released and sent
to Col Johnson's camp. In passing through
the different camps, he was blindfolded by the
Mormons, to prevent him from obtaining a
knowledge of their movements, and the letter,
dated at a camp of Col. Cooks command,
makes no mention of being molested by the
Mormons. The report that two hundred of
the troops had been mastered is therefore en-
tire!y false

A curious lawsuit is now going on

A curious lawsuit is now going on at
Berlin. A rich banker of that city, who is i'll
OF the smallpox, has had two actions brought
against him, one by his barber, and the other
by his upholsterer, who claim damages be-
cause he communicated the malady to them.
They demand compensation for the DOCTOR
expenses and the time they have lost. Ac-
cordlng to the Prussian law, the banker was
bound to hang up outside his door, notice
with the words, There is person i'll here of
the small pox.''
Col. r. H. Leavitt and Jonah Ballard
of Charlemont, have suffered by the same
trick that was played upon Aaron Chandler
of Wendell, viz: by having an order for
money written over their signatures. when
the latter had only been given to certify to
the merits Of a certain compost manure.

NEW York, Jan. 8.-The wires of the Ma
tional line, running from this city to New
Orleans, distance of about two thousand
miles, were connected through last night, and
large number Of messages were transmitted
to and from each city direct, and without the
aid Of repeaters. No similar feat, it is believ-
ed, was ever performed in this country or Eu-
rope, and the result would seem to demon
strate, beyond all doubt, the entire practical
bility of transmitting dispatches across the
Atlantic.
