Order of the bons and Daugher. of Temperance."-Th is Order was instituted in the city of New York, on the 29th of September, 1842, by sixteen efficient frients of the Tenperance cause with a determination to introduce among the elements of moral reform, an Order that should not be liable to any of the objec tions which had been previously urged. These gentlemen, after a full6 interchage ofopinion, decided upon a plan. an epitome of which we gave in our last. It may, however, be well to repeat. It was to consist of National, Grand and Subordi nale livisions. Any State in the Union. having four or more'Divisions, should be entitled to a State or Grand Division, and the President and Past Officers of the Grand, to constitute that of the National Division. The Subordinates are to meet once a week ; the Grand, quarterly ; aud the National, annually. Each member of the order to pay six and a quarter cents per week, and in case of sickness to receive not less than three dollars, and as much more as the Division of which ie is a member may direct. or deem necessary. A member taken sick whilst travelling, is suthorized and expected to call upon the iearest branch of the Order, and the imount expended for his relier is to be e-imbursed from the fund set apart for hat purpose. But, since imposition might .asily be practised, a secret is necessary o guard against the vicious and unprinci Aled. This secret is merely the quarterly )ass-word-the ceremonial initiation, % hich in itself. strikes us as a most admi able compendium of man's moral duties, md in which the candidate Ihr tnember hip is obligated to abstain from alcoholic irinks-that liqid fire which has filled he body with disease-even death with lishonor-the eari with mourning, and iell itself with rejoicings over the datnued. Of the necessity of this secresy, a single -xemplification will suffice. A brother rom the Division in Macon, Ga. (16t they lave one there,) is on a visit to one of the oland towns of the remote West-he is overtaken by disease, prostrated on a hed if sickness. in at distant and strange land, rith no father to counsel him, no wife or ister to watch over and comfort him, no nother to -smooth his ptllow or cool his evered brow, and no friend to him medi al assistane-but, the poor, unfortunate tranger, though far from kindred and ome, heirs the klad tidings that in this emote village exists a Division of the ;ons of Temperance. Nature not allies ter desparing energies at thejoyfil nielligenre-a member of the Divisiont Is eit for. and a simple word like an angel's this;.er. discovers a relaionship unknown tefore.

MWASaINUTon, Dec. 25, 1845. The despatches received by the gov. rnment from Mexico, are deemed to be >f such importance as :o render necessary ,ome immediate movements on the part of Congress. Measures will next be recom. led by the President, with a view to the ,rosecution of our just claims npon Mexi. :o to a speedy issue. Mr. lancroft. the Secretary of the Navy. is preparing a report on the subject )f the Navy, which will be commnntticted to Cotgress by the President next week. tud which will recommend the immediate faishing and equipment of wvar-steamers. The downfall of Herrera, which is now mttici ated as- certaitn, will break off all iegottation with Mr Sildell, and his jpoedy return to the United -States may Ie expected. General Urrea and Paredes andnubtedly have with them the people mnd the clergy, and their violent atnd im politic counsels will prevail, at-least until much tme as wve shall be ready to batter :lown the wvalls of the castle ol San Joan :le Ulloa, or march an ahmy aerosdAbo Rio.'del Norto, or take possession of Mon Leroy. Commiodore Stockton will reach the coast of Californtia just in time to carry out the views of tli. Uited #tames, in caso of war with Mexico.

Correspondence of the Baltimore American. WASINGTON, Dec. 24..

Foreign Co+esp ondence of the U. S. Gazbde. ASTWzRp, Dec. 2,1845. The Belgian papers announce the treaty concluded between the Uoited Stated and Belgiuin by our Charge d'Affairs in Bruu sels. It will create some talk in the Uni ted States, especially in regard to the re ciprocity clauses it contains, I refrain, of course, from all remarks on the sub ject. Those who are opposed to recipro city treaties with small powers in general, -will, of course, not like it, the. notions entertained in the extreme south. will be different on the subject. All I venture to say, is, that navigation treaties concern the north more than the south ; so that northern men are perhaps the best-judges of it. THE TARIFF AND THE SEIMATE. The Washington Correspondent of the NqthI American, alluding to the admission of 'exas and various consequences flowing from it, adds the foilowo ing, in which we are as deeply interested as Pennsylvania. But the cheif and paraiont conse qu ences of this enactment is soon to be felt upon the protective policy and the industry of the country. Up to this day at 2 o'clock tile Tariff was not in dauger. except pros pectively. Vow it is utmost hopekssly anti irretrievably lost. I do not wish to exagerate the qauger, but candor compels to avow what is no longer doubtful. The W pes cent hurizontahists. some of wbodf, ad sqge only, coucede nominal discrini inatious for revenue, have been exceeding ly active in ascertainiug wha1 would be the correct pull of the Senate upoh a final vote, and their esumates and my own 3lmost literally accord After a most -areful examination. I cannot discdver :nore than three Democratic Senators wto secede from the party upon this question 3amely Cameron, Sturgeon ann Fairfield. I'here was some expectation of Niles' vote, but I fear the signs are agaist tmat tope, and Dix, froi %%hose position- it wvould be reasonable to infer an upright mupport of the existing hilt, will have to turrender to the! pressure Iron n ithout and *all iit, an enemy to his real principlea. If one addittonal vote could be secured the .asting privilege of the Vice residents, would piace the Tarif' beyoid the con ,ency oif harau. Without that succor it is ;one. h'e iterest to be afected by the pros.

Mr. Calhoun not on the Committee of Foreign Afairs !-The announcemett of Mr. Calhoun's return totthe Senate was hailed throughout the Union by the press of all parties, as beitg particularly fortu nate at this crisis of our foreign affairs. It will be perceived by reference to the proceedings of the Senate, that Mr. Cal-. houn is not Chairman of this important committee, is not even a member of it. We are satisfied that the whole country, irrespective of party, will regret this, as Mr. Calboun's intimate ,knowledge and connection with the Oregon nestion madle him, 'joined with his splended talents anid influence, a most proper person to presidle over the importanit deiibefations of thec Committee in the Senate on foreign. alfairs,-N. 0.

They seemed by the warmness of their defence, tosup pose that the fall of this man was ideoti :al with the fall of the cause. It was no such thing. It only proved that the pledge is not omnipotent in its power of preserving rrom evil. There is nothing of human rabric that is. Even religion divine in its irigin and godlike in its object and its principles, has more than-once been vio lated in the errors of its ministers. But religion is nevertheless a goodthing.
