Important If True.

A special dispatch from Washington to the
Missouri Republican, assure that journal that
the Administration has decided on seizing up
on the Northern States of Mexico as a safe
guard against any future freaks of such guer-
illas as Cortinas, who has lately been threat
ening Brownsville; and that large numbers
of troops from various military stations have
been ordered to the seat of war; We cannot
believe that this report is true. Little as we
respect Mr.. Buchanan, as little as we admire
his measures, We cannot think that he will
have the presumption to enter upon war of
conquest against neighboring country with
which we are at peace, without the consent of
the Representatives of the people, in Congress
assembled. ..

Iowa (Judge Lowe,) at its recent session
in Dubuque, gave its decision sustaining the
claim of the State to be about 100000 acres
OF land granted by Congress to the State, in
aid of the Des Moines River Improvement -
The question submitted was to the extent of
OF the grant, the State claiming, and the Sec
retary of the Interior denying, that the grant
extended to the source of the Des Moines River.
BY an arrangement between the State and the
Des Moines River Improvement Company,
100000 acres Of these lands are to be trans
ferred to the Keokuk, Fort Des Moines and

CHARLEsrowN, Nov. 10th.
A hideous noise was heard last night, and
the the citizens flew to arms The alarm was
caused by cat, evidently from the North,
engaged in an irrepressible conflict with the
Charlestown cats.
A company of horse marines has just arrived
from Washington.
The Mayor has just issued a proclamation,
prohibiting all hideous noises in the night
time.
SPIN.
All is quiet. The catastrophe is at pres
ent averted. The guard, however, sleep up
on their arms, and are ready at a moments S
notice.
31P.M.
The city is again in uproar. Sounds pro-
ceeding from the marshes near the city were
distinctly heard-"OM John Broaon," "Old
John Bro,cn," We're Comingr' We're "COns-
ingg"
The military have been dispatched.
LATER.
The military have returned. The second
alarm was caused by bull-frogs
HARPER's FERRY, Nov. 20.
Gov. Wise and a force of 1000 of the in
domitable militia, have just arrived here, en-
route for Charlestown, having been notified
of the uproar yesterday. He has since heard
the cause of the excitement, and has issued q
mandate for the general slaughter of all cats
and bull-frogs of the State. The courage and
peace of the Old Dominion cannot be tritied
with, with impunity. He is excited, and the
militia are full of fight He tells them that
this will be good lesson for them-they will
hereafter know how to prevent hideous noises
and repel invasion.
RIchMoNp, Nov. q.
A new cause of alarm has occurred. A
white man was seen crossing the Ohio river
for Wheeling. This has aroused general sus-
picion. More marines are called fOr-more
troops are on the march
Wheeling, Nov. 81.
1t was not white man, but "nigger
that crossed the river-and he did not cross
for, but from, Nheeling. He is now supposed
to be in Canada.
From Gov. wise's Private secretsryl
CHARLEsTowN, Nov. 81.
The prompt action of the Governor and
the march of the troops, are designed more
to show the world that "Virginny never
tires" than as an indication of fear. The
chivalry, it must be confessed, are greatly
disturbed, not because they fear anything
themselves, but simply because they are
afraid of others.
