That duty belongs to another department of govern merit, and will doubtless be presented in due time; but I beg leave to repeat what I have expressed on former occasions, that it is neither wise nor politic to place too great a reliance upon the imbecility of an enemy; it is far belter that the national safety should be based upon our own biulioi?7? Free from foreign invation, wc are equally exempt from internal commotion. As yet we arc strangers to those political broils and party feuds which prevail in other nations, to the prostration of their energies and decay of their liberties. Commencing our national existence under the most favorable circumstances, we shall be able, in the administration of our affairs, to adopt the most wholesome and judicious policy. To realize the high aspersions of patriotism; to raise our country to that proud eminence and distinction which she is capable of attaining, it is only necessary that wo lay aside all selfishness in our legislature, and direct our views to the general rather than to individual interests. We should remember, too, that evils are not remedied, nor good produced, by mere multiplicity of laws; good government is the result of the most patient, dispassionate and thorough investigation.?

If, in addition to these, we shall give protection to our frontier settlements, supply sotnc deficiencies in the laws regulating our public domain, establish amicable relations with the Indian tribes, and adopt a permanent and extended system of education, .ve shall have accomplished all that the present exigencies of the country require. In the progress of your deliberations, 1 trust there will be all that harmony and conciliation so essential to prompt and efficient legislation, that the various questions of public policy which shall arise may be calmly discussed;.and that your measures; originating in the love of country, may be made to rest on the solid foundation of wisdom, justice, and moderation. With every confidence in your integrity, patriotism, and abilities. It will give tnc great pleasure to unite with you, as far as my official station will permit, in whatever may tend to promote our happiness at home, and sustain our character abroad.

Re it resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the republic of Texas, in Congress assembled, That the President he, and lie is hereby instructed, to cause the proposition heretofore made bj this government to the government of the United Stales, for the annexation of Texas, to be respectfully and unconditionally withdrawn, and thus in the most decisive manner, refer the people of Texas, for all the future good they may hope to receive or enjoy, of social security to their own independent and manly energies. All of which is respectfully submitted by your committee, with the hope of its speedy passage into a law. S. II. FVF.IMT'P ! The report and resolution were read and laid on the table. We have seen sonic very curious fos-j sils, which were dug up in the county of Chesterfield, in a coal mine, about 200 feel below the surface. They appear like pieces of slate, with the distinct impressions of little fish, like perch. The indentations cannot bo mistaken. They are on dififcrenl facets of the slate, and apparently being at different angles. It would seem, as if there bad been a large number of fishes reposing in a soft bed of j mud, which from some cause or other was | petrified, before the substance of the fish ; had undergone any decomposition.?The; question is, as with the fly in amber, "how the dense they got there." That our Globe lias been the subject of the mosf cxtraordinory revolutions?\^hat is now % * ***** ? * the interior of the laud having formerly been under water, and where the water i* now in some piuccs was formerly land? is attested by a variety of phetiom^ns i which have been laid open by the Mine> ralogisls.

There are many of those most able to contribute, whom they have not had an op. portuuty of seoing. These, and some friends whom wo aro expecting in town Uwlay, from our vicinity, will, doubtless, be glad to assist in making up the deficiency. The Charleston poor are in a most dc. ploruble condition, and never has there boon a loudor call upon the friends of humanity. Party Intolerance.?A great deal is said about intolerance in religion, but it is not to be compared to I intoloranco in politics. It is moro excusablo in the former than in tho latter, because, there, a plain fixed rulo has boon given for tho guidance of faith and conduct, and there need not be much difficulty in snttlinrr hiaam ? ?*!? ... u|/vu lit vuiiooijuoanj9 wuu Iiliuuiuilliy for our guide, it is but a natural weakness to claim so:no degroc of infalibilily for our interpretation of that guide. Wo say that, in religion, intolerance is a woaknoss; wo must bo understood relatively. It is a weakness compared with intolerance in politics. Hero, every thing is problematical; every thing uncertain. The slightest chango of circumstances may stamp the utility or inutility of a measure, just as in a game of choss, the most insignificant movement of our opponent, may change the policy of our own most ably concerted plans. How unworthy tlion the dignity of human beings to be insisting not only zealously, but violently; not only violently but angrily; not only angrily but rudely, upon measures which may at last, be of negative results, and which at bost can never counterbalunco the evils of heartburning, malice, and malignity that have been stirred up during their accomplishment. It is a misfortuno, moreover, that political wars ire carried on less about principles than about measures?these very uncor. I tain, unproductive measures of which wo have just I spoken. So long as this is the case, men will conI suit thoir own private advantage, more than tho t greatest amount of good upon the whole, and, consequently, be more excitable; for men, like wasps, i arc far more violent when thoir own peculiar interests are concerned, than when the community at ' largo is tho chief party. That which is boncvoilcnce in tho one case, is contracted into sol'ishncss in the othor; or, in other words, the more plac d emotion is ryr.lwmrnH Tor ?lm mnrn ,\\*~ - ? ^ .*?. ?iav luwiv VUlUUlCIIk* *1 U I argue thon, that principles should be the butt of political warfare, and these once settled, measures ^ would follow naturally.

In their stead, we shall have tho discus, sion of principles; political information will bo dis. se:ninatcd; tho economy of nations will be canvas. scJ; error will lie carried off by the healthy process of what may bo called mental fermentation; Truth will be left unadulterated, and become tho standard of all our judgments. We don't like it.?The Stockholders of the Bank of tho United States, in 183G, bofore the commencement of the great troubles, voted Mr. : Binor.K a splendid, massy service of plate, in token of their regard for his efforts in bohulf of themselves and the country. The plate has lately been finished, and is said to be most magnificent. The enemies of the Bank aro making a groat splutter 011 the sub. I ject, and think it a very hard case that the " poor ! peoplo," tho " dear people" should have to cat from j wooden trenchers with horn-spoons, while tho lordly ; " rag-barons" urc regaling themselves 011 the most J cosily viands, from the most costly furniture.? I Now, this is perfect nonsenso. I** Mr. Biddi.e's friends aro disposed to testify their admiration of him, what business of his enemies is the style in which they choose to do it? For our part, we say, if such u thing is done at all it ought to Ik* dono in a man-1' : ner worthy of the donors, and if it had been less 1 splendid the Administration party would havo been 1 tho first to proclaim it as an evidcnco of the small ' value attached to his services. Equally do we 1 | rcpudiato tho rotort of 110 of the Opposition prints, that a certain ablo Van Buren Senator dines from a ( servico of gold.

It will do for the f the , and some other prints of tho same order; but when tho 44 great Globe itself' takes np the ad. captandum strain, and is answered in the samej way by a contemporary of equal celebrity, we can-: not help calling to mind the two Giants, who, on!

Tliero are scvoral words iu our Ianguago which we seriously inclino to havo stereotyped for our spocial boncfit. These are such as 44 Awful murder," P 44 Melancholy catastropho." 44 Terrible accident." 0 44 Fatal oncountcr," 44 Affecting," 44 Very oxtrnordi- * nary," and the like. We havo been making calcu- ^ latinos that the setting up of theso words costs us al>out twenty-five dollars per year. Now if wo only havo them stereotyped we shall savo all further trou- V bio and oxponsc; besides, wo can just imagine tho twenty.five dollars to be eight new subscribers, and w far more punctual shall wo And thorn, than sonio * now on our list.

Only to sco whut a list wo' have to present in to-day's paper! Awful Murder.?A man was recently shot dead in North Carolina, wltilo-lying on his bod. The:, weapon was loaded with Brandrcth's pills. Melancholy Catastrophe.?-A now pnpor has boon started in Florence, Georgia. Terrible Accident.?A Mississippi Steamboat, in ascending tho river lately, got frightonod ond ran away with such violence as to burRt hor boih r, uid scald half her passengers.

If it bo viewed as recognised by pnrtizuns, it is the most difficult of ull others to be acquired. With theso it consists in voering about to every point of the compass with the fluctuations of party; "following the footsteps of illustrious prcdecssors." Its motto is, " Our party, right if possible; but, right or wrong, our party." It leaves no room for repentance; no room for conviction: for what fellowship havo morals with poli. tics, and what has conviction to do with tho interests of party. Those arc maxims to which wo can never assent. We rocognise no kind of consistency but an uniform, consistent pursuit in the path of ho. ncsty and duty. In a world full of cr.or, both wilful and incidental, a course liko this may lessen a man in tho estimation of otl crs, but a contrary course will lessen him in his own. He may owe it to his party to adopt their views, but lie owes it to himself to do his duty, and in the path of duty he must be enlightened by the lamp of his own conscience. It is useless and false to say that a man must always a Ihcro to his original views- Wo aro constantly forming erroneous opinions, and tho only atonement we can inako for this frailty, is to renounce them when convinced of their error. We should applaud tho honesty of him who might have j acted in this way, thoujh wo miirlit not nnnrovo his I judgment; but to him who would act diflcrontly, wo could assign neither honesty nor judgment; Iub lack of horn-sly would he manifest in his conduct, and his lack of judgment, in his deliberate rejection of that only true consistency, that is comprised as much in the renunciation of what we consider wrong, as in adherence to what we conr idcr light. - ?v*?
