regard to the transaction of the last week which I
can be fully and implicitly relied upon. We
have before us a statement of facts, elicited by a m
minute aud thorough investigation upon the m
ground,derived from sources which forbid the s<
idea that there can be any mistake about them, ai
It is true that the people were most solemnly li
and repeatedly assured that a compromise had ; p:
been agreed upon securing to them substantially i w
every thing that they bad contended for. liutlh
we arc compelled to add, and we do it with sor- j fc
row for weakness and depravity which caused J o
it, that these assurances were shamefully trench-1 o
erous and raise. They were mane principally j u
by Burrington Anthony, who had been foremost, \\
in tlie suffrage cause, who had accepted anof-iti
lice under the constitution, who had voluntarily j k
opened his house to he the home and head ipiar- | h
tersol'Gov. Dorr, hut who in the hour oi trial j <
betrayed both his guest and the people. | a
The result is the complete ruin of the suffrage o
cause?the overthrow of the constitution?the]."
restoration of the King and his charter? the j a
subjecting of a hetrayed and insulted people to v
the taunts, jeers, and contumely, heaped upon ] n
them by their triumphant and insolent opponents.; g
A eig Smoke, ei;t no Fire.?The diilicully ; |
between Messrs. Wise and Stanly has been ami- > a
1 C
cably and "honorably settled," without the shed- | ^
ding of blood. Mr. Stanly, after cutting great I c
shines and leaving his scat in Congress fleeing , i
from the District to avoid, as liis friends raid, I 'j
being arrested before he could challenge Mr.'
. 11
Wise, and finding perhaps, after practising, ,
that he could not shoot as true a:-: he ought, con- j 1
^ eluded it best lo get rid of his caning in some ! i
other way than lighting. Therefore, through his : j
friend, he stated that he threw the mud cn M.\ . i
Wise (like Mr. Pres'on once missed giving his j I
vote,) "ttninlcnlionally." Mr. Wise of course re-:1
plied, in the same spirit of compromise that lie 1 [
gave Mr. S'.anly the caning u accidentally."? And
so the matter ended. '

The Washington correspor.dcntoftheCharlc3- '
ton Mercury, under date of the IG'th inst. says: ^
"Two or three days since there appeared in '
the Baltimore papers a paragraph stating that '
Kevordy Johnson of that city had been thrown 1
from his horse, by which he was very much injured.
A rumor prevalent here to clay gives a
different version of the story. It is said that he
and Mr Stanly were engaged in pistol practice \
on Friday evening in tfie vicinity of Baltimore; t
and that a ball from the pistol of the latter glan- ' ?
ced from the target, and lodged immediately urn- J (
<ler the left eye of Mr. Johnson. The ball was
extracted, but the sight of the eye is irrecovcra- !
bly gone." '

LATEST FROM TEXAS. c
Our steam ship New-York, Capt. Wright, ar- (
rived at this port last evening, in 3! hours from t
Galveston. She brought us popers and letters j
? from Houston to the loth instant, and from Gal- /
veston to the 17th. We give the principal news 1
which we find after a careful review of our files 1
# and correspondence. *' j r
The pcople,of Austin and Gen. Houston are (1
still at issue on the propriety of removing the 1
national archives from the present seat of gov- v
eminent. He contends that their removal is <1
nrudent measure: thev assert that they are wil- ^
ling and able to protect them. |"
Gen. Houston a id the principal members of;11
his cabinet are still in Galveston. The when or i
how they propose to carry on the war against
Mexico is, to all but theniselvs, a secret; butal- v
though it is, firm reliance is placed by the great >!
body of the people 0:1 the prudence and patriot- 1
ism of the President. a
A public dinner was given at Houston on the 0
5th inst., to Lieut Luhbuck, of the Santa Fc ! h
Expedition, who escaped from the Mexican pri-1 h
son. Among the distinguished persons present 'J
were his Excellency the President, Gens. Some.-- '
villc, Baker, Eavis, Morehouse, Judge Terrell
and others.
The Houstonian of the 0;h inst, says a fatal J
rencontre occurred at the race course at Harris- j
burg on Saturday, between Flourney Hunt and j
two young men of the name of Black, which re- j
suited in the immediate death of the former by 1
a pistol shot. j (
The Secretary of the Treasury has returned (
to Galveston with the newly engraved Exchc- (
<juer notes. 1
The agricultural prospects of the country arc I
very promising. | >
Extensive arrangements ore being made for a ]

Extract of a letter dated Galveston the 17;h 'j
inst:? I j
We have suffered a severe loss recently in the /
sudden death of the Hon. ('. Van Ness,* of San >
Antonio. lie was the son of your former min-i/j
ister to Spain, and has been a citizen of Texas | 1
about five years, during which time he has dis- ] 1
tinguished himself in ourlcgislative councils, and j
in various other situations, as a commissioner to j
Arista and the Indians. A lew days since lie
was riding on horseback with a friend, near San J
Antonio, when the horse of his friend making a! sudden
start, the rifle he carried u as discharged,
and its contents lodged in the body of Mr. Van
Ness, who expired soon afterwards. In him tlio j
country lias sustained a severe loss. J ?
1\ S.?12, AT.?The steamer Ed. Burleson, [
lias just arrived from Houston. The President

tinsville Creole states that "on Saturday, the 1
# 7th inst:, at about three o'clock, P. M, an earth-; f
quake, which lasted two or three seconds, was
felt in this Parish. A respectable inhabitant of at
Cataloulou, who was angling at that time, in p,
company with some ladies, on the banks of the
lake, told us that as soon as the shock was felt, .
they were all struck with a kind of giddiness,
and that one of the ladies fell down in a e .voon.?
lie also assured us that the lake rose, during the tv
space ol some minutes, to more than six feet.? m
Several inhabitants along the banks of Bayu
Teclie affirm the unaccountable elevation of that ~
river at about the same time. We suppose this
extraordinary ascension of the waters was but f
iiie resuu ri uu? cuujuiuuun caused oy uie pnenomcnon.
Ouc ol our friends, who arrived from
Opelousas yesterday, told us that the shock was ~~
also felt in that part of the country. From the
declaration of theol dest inhabitants ofthis parish, p
this would be the second earthquake felt in Ata- an

jnting that he was a native of Ornncre County, R

ailet, containing about 841, and stolen noni m
iniadirk. The circumstances arc briefly as ll
dlows: in/sou represented Jiimsclfto Mr. Core, ti

money necessary from one of bis friends; 4

May, 23.
To the different Temperance Societies in South
L'urolina.
The Stale Temperance Society, at its last Annual
Meeting, determined on holding a Meeting in
Greenville, in the ensuing summer. The time is
now fixed for the 2d .Monday in August. Each
Society .will be expected to send Delegates: the
number is of course very much in their discretion:
but I would suggest, that generally about ten delegates
he appointed by each Society.
\Yc have reached an important point in the Temperance
Reformation: the whole people of the State |
arc aroused upon tlicsuljcct. if we act in harmony
and perfect concert, the good which may be done
is incalculable! The object of the Greenville Con.
vention is to attain a desirable end.
Let us then, beloved friends, for the rescue of our
companions, friends acquaintances, and even "the
stranger within our gates," coino to the resolution to
sacrifice a few days: and meet our brethren of South
Carolina and North Carolina, in the sight of our
own majestic mountains. That by interchanging
thoughts, and becoming known to 0110 another, wc
dial! bo ablo to form that army of tcmpcrato free:ncn,
who will be as unbroken and as invincible, as
lie Macedonian Phalanx. J.ct oach Society,
[Washington, Total Abstinence, or Partial Absti*
lence,) send up delegates. Wc are all acting for the
rood of our fellow men, and by taking sweet coun- (
el together, wo shall not diminish our chance of ,
UCCCSH. j
A'tio would not rejoice to know, that thcro now was j
iot, and never hereafter would be another drunkard (
n tlii.s Stale? Such n stale of tilings would be the! j
roldcn age, so beautifully but fabulously depicted
ii ancient poetry. It may never lie exactly attain-:
d. But we can approach it. if ice try. Tlio Re.
iiihlic of an ancient philosopher was a creature of <
lis infancy. Our gallant and heroic fathers surpass t
d the Philosopher's dream, in the noble republican |
nstiliitions of liberty and freedom, which they no- I
ly won, and secured for themselves and their pos. s
urily. A similar spirit of political endurance, of ,
nflir.chiug purpose, of pure, disinterested motive, a
nd of harmony of action, to that which they ex. ?
ibitcd in the Revolution, will now conduct us to h
lie achievement of as great a conquest, and bring
bout as great a deliverance, as that which seven ?,
ear's toil and hlood accomplished for thorn. They ?
icrcby became freemen. Wo hopo to continue free,
nd to be sober. a
For such consummation, let there be but ono spi. J
t among us, and let that be, to excel each other in j ^
drancing Tcinpcranco. Let us have but one mind ; ^
nd let that bo, to give up our predilections for ?'ir!^
ivn plans, and act upon such as will do most good'! j
'huso results can only be accomplished by the Tcni- J a
jruncc Convention at Greenville. To it, let all con- 1
anlly look, and in it, let every Society be rcpre. C
nled. 1
It is respectfully asked of the President of each I ^
cmpcrancc Society, to read tin's Circular to the So- ^
cly over which lie presides, at its lirst meeting aftci _
o receipt of it, and ask their consideration of it.

Gentlemen?Owing to the benefit received from
J niy visit to tho Whita Sulphur Springs last summer,
I have not yet had occasion to drink any of
the water you sent me; but having, on more than
one occasion, used it as' it came to this place in bottles,
I am of opinion; if carefully put up, that it **
undergoes little if any deterioration or chango in its
qualities or cffcts.
Your friend and servant,

From Dr. Willson.
'For tho last twelve or thirteen years I have resided
in the neighborhood of tho White Sulphur
Springs, and have had frequent opportunities of
ohservinrr the beneficial effects of u'aters. tvlmn
moved from tho spring in bottles and barrels.
The aativc properties of this water depend upon1"
the saline jngiiedients which it contains. In corroboration
of tlii opinion, I stato that I have known
individuals in this place use the water after it had
been kept in barrolls for twelve months, and. after it y
appeared to hare parted with all or most of its volatile
properties, end that it acted as promptly and
efficiently as when used at tho spring.
HUGH WILSON, M. D.
From the Rev. Win. S I'lumer, D. D. Editor of
the Watchman of tho South.
The Subscriber has had considerable opportunity
if testing tho value of the White Sulphur Water
ivhen brought to Richmond. He has used it in his
amily the last summer and the present, and is hap.
>y to be able to say, that it has been as valuable in
.his way as a visit to the fountain would probably
lave been.
WILLIAM S.PLUMER.
Richmond, 30.li June, 1840..
The same gentleman, in Ihe "Watchman of-.tha"
South," of tlic 23J July, remarks, "The Editor of
his paper has used the White Sulphur Water froo.
y, ill his family, and hus no dovbl of its efficacy
<cing great in ordinary eases. Taking into con.
ideration the comforts of home, lie would, in ordinary
eases, prefer the use of tho water in casks to',
. visit to tho White Sulphur Springs. The
rnod effects of the water brought in casks to Rich.
'wild hare been very manifest."
