EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON OITY: MONDAY..... -++++-.December 27 1858, 17 Though + The Star” is printed om the fastest steam press in use south of Balti- more, its edition is se large as te require it te be put te press at an early hour, Adver- tisements, therefore, should be sent in by 19 e@’cleck, 3 otherwise they may net appear until the mext d: SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union of Saturday morning, speaking of “ Modern Lezistative Oratory,” takes occa- sion. to criticise pretty plainly the speech of Mr. Morris, of Illinois, delivered in the House on Wednesday last. The same paper contains an ironical article on the subject of “Mr. Sum- ner’s Recall of Lord Napier.” The Jutellagencer of the same date congratu- lates its readers upon another return of the Christmas holiday, and is devoted to news, 4c. ~ On account of the Christmas holiday, neither of these papers was issued this morning. ee oe ee WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIe. Facts ayy Rewors.—Mr. Alfred M. Bar- bour, of Monongahela county, has been ap- pointed by Secretary Floyd, Superintendent of the National Armory at Harper’s Ferry. Mr. B. was formerly a member of the Virginia Legislature, and is a gentleman of fine abili- ties and enthusiastic democracy. A statement has been puttn circulation here, on the basis of a letter from Tampico, that the Spanish fleet in the Gulf is to make a warlike demonstration on Mexico as soon as the weath- er permits. The report is, that the coast, from Laguna to Tampico, is to be placed under blockade, and that other warlike measures are to be adopted. This report contradicts the as- sertion that the object of Spain in sending a fleet to the Gulf is only to protect her citizens, resident in Mexico. What proportion of credit the statement merits, we have no means of knowing. This Government is urged to instruct its Naval officers in the Gult, to compel the Mexi- can chief, Gen. Garza, to restore what he bas plundered from American citizens, in the same way that, it is said, he was compelled to make Testitution to the Spanish merchants. The charges against this officer are numerous, and some Of them of the most flagrant character. He is said to have fired into, detained and robbed five American vessels. Seized and ap- Propriated the entire cargo of one, and im- Prisoned the commander, Capt. Trevis, eleven days. No indemnity for these violations of law has yet been made, theugh both Gen. Garza and his superior chieftain do not, we believe, protend to justify the outrages they are alleged to have perpetrated. An answer is expected by the latter part of January, to certain propositions looking to the settlement of the Central American question, which were transmitted to England several weeks ago. Reliable information has been received here confirming the account of the discoveries of gold in the Pike’s Peak region, in the western part of Kansas; and that the developments re- cently made there give greatly improved pros- pects of @ rich remuneration for the toil of mining. Advices have alse been received of the discovery of extensive gold mines on the Gila river, in New Mexico, near the eastern boundary of California. Six or seven hundred men were already engaged in working the last mentioned mines. Messrs. Lane and McUarty, the newly said to-be-elected Senators from Indiana to fill the places of Messrs. Fitch and Bright, which the Republican Legislature of that State recently declared vaeant, are to be here next week to apply for their seats. They surely can have no hope of success, as the Senate has already recognized the right of Messrs. Fitch and Bright to the seats by a resolution passed at its last session. The only object in this contemplated contest is the hope that it will afford political eapital for fature operations. The Secretary of Btate of Indiana has very properly refused to sign the bogus credentials of Messrs Lane and MeCarty. Tae Wareors Iupeacewenr Case.—Tho exchange list of the Srar is of very cousider- abie extent, embracing al! parts and sections of theconntry. With reference to the deter- mination of the proceeding towards the im- peachment of Judge Watrous, of Texas, we find wuch of comment in our exchanges, evi- dencing a proper appreciation cf the impor- tance of this case. The debate which was elicited by this proceeding, in which there were such displays of argument and eloquence is variously complimented. But we have yet to see in any one of our exchanges a single Paragrapa commending or endorsing the prin- ciple of dismissing the case of Judge Watrous Without a triai. This decision, and the Principle it practi- cally announces of immunity of “fences and rs in the judicial places of the Government, appegr to have taken the coun- try by surprise. The general public opinion 48 we derive it from our exchanges seem to be, that the House bas erred in allowing the ac- cused Judge to escape through some flaws or imperfections in the proceeding, and in re- fusing for such reason to commit him for trial. We clip the following terse expression of opinion on this subject from a New York pa- Der, with the remark that the judgment it conveys we find reiterated by numerous of our exchanges: “If ibe body (House of Representatives} had not been composed so very lager of roads who are in the habit of looking out for flaws in indictments, and for ali deiciencies in testi- mnony, whereby an accused party may escape, Joba C. Watrous would at this inoment be on bis trial before the bigh court of impeachment, the Senate of the Uulted States; for, according to the decision in this case, no Judge, no matter how corrupt he may be, so long as he does not commit any overt acts of corruption. can ever be brought to trial or deprived of bts office. If it ‘Were not for that consideration for the {cfluence of this decision on the public mind of the coun- try, 3¢ would be gratifying to see Judge Watrous discharged fom the accusation, for be isan old man, fast hastening to the great Judgment Sest. ‘Fbe wisest and most honorabie course that be now pursue would be to place bis resignation in the heads of the President, and retire rom & por sition iu which whether deserved!y or not—be hhad lost the confidence of the people of Texas.” Tux Bate Svsax axo ner “Emigrants.” — A few days since we mentioned the receipt of a telegraphic despatch at this point, announe- ing that the Susan had succeeded in landing her freight of “‘ emigrants” safely in Nicarag gua. As we thought at the time, it has proved to be a canard. It was possible that she might have been heard from on the 20th, and it is possible that she may be beard from to-mor- Tow, the 28th. Between that day aud the 13 h of January, prox., it is barely possible that we may have news ot ber. Phe longer news from her is delayed, the stronger the probability that sho has succeeded in landing her “ emi- grants’ on Nicaraguan soil, will be. Our ims Pression is that she mate for some point from whence, if ruccessfal in landing her “ emi- grants,"’ they could move rapidly up into some part of the country from whence their dislodgement by any force that either squad- yon Bow om the coast of Nicaragua can spare for thet purpose, will be a matter of extreme difficulty, if at all possible. We have good Feason Ww reject, as entirely untrue, the story that those who sent the Sasan out were willing thet she should be overhatiled by a British cruiser, in order to have her taken by force of arms after those on board of her may have made all the resistance in their power. Their purpose was certainly to effect a landing with- out molestation. Frou tax Sotrawest,—The Indian Bu- reau is in receipt of a communication from A- H. Jones and H. M. Brown, who are now en- gaged in the survey of the boundary lines be- tween the Indian tribes in the Southwest, dated at Camp Radsiminski, near the 100th meridian west longitude, Nov. 30th, 1858. The writers state that they have s good observato- ry, and their instruments are all in excellent order. They expect to winter at their present stopping place, as it will require fully three months constant observation to identify the in- itial point of the 100th meridian, which is an important object with them. Their party is under the protection of Major Van Dorn and his command. They speak in the highest terms of this officer, and allude to his recent battle with the Camanches, on the Canadian river, as having been the severest punishment those tribes ever received. They also pronounce the chastisement as being rieh- ly merited, and assert that the Indians were the same gang who, under old Buffalo Hump, have long been committing depredations in Western Texas, and who threatened the safety of Fort Arbuckle last summer, when the troops were mostly withdrawn from that post. The hostile attitude of these same Indians has delayed the prosecution of the survey in which the writers of this letter are engaged, at least three months; but through the efficient conduet of Major Van Dorn and his command, it is supposed that there does not now, nor will not for some time to come, exist any danger of a new outbreak among them. They have en- tirely disappeared since the fight, but notwith- ing that, Major Van Dorn has scouting parties out almost constantly, although the weather is inclement and the ground covered with snow a foot deep. ’ Major Van Dorn has entirely recovered from the wound he received in his fight with the Camanches, and the health of his command, as well as of the members of the surveying party, is excellent. Tas Wearner axp tae Wueat.—The sea- son, for a hundred miles around Washington in all directions, continues to be remarkably for- tunate forcareful and improving farmers. That is, for those who farm properly drained lands. On the contrary, those who farm flat lands that have not boen thoroughly drained are not only to lose much of the benefits of the open weather in pushing ahead the growth of their wheat, but they are destined to find its yield sadly cut off by the effeot of the present water-sobbing on their fields, and the eertain future contingency that when the long freeze does come, the result of the surcharge of water which will even then be laying on the surface soil of such fields, will certainly be very extensive ‘+ winter killing.”’ Such a season as the present teaches most un- mistakably the soundness of the philosophy of agricultural drainage; for, while it is replete with benefits to the farmer who has properly drained his lands on which water might other- wise lay, it involves almost certain destruction to the prospects of the farmer who has essayed this season to raise wheat from such lands un- drained. New Titties —To the Editor of the Star— Dear Sir: In looking over the congressional pre- ceedings published in your issue of Thursday, 23d, [ notice a bill has been introduced with the above object. As a citizen, though unbappilr, not @ constituent of its mover, I would beg leave, in all Lumility, to suggest the Propriety of pessins forward (instead) some measure, tend- ny to establish a bureau for granting patents of nobility at once, thereby saving the time and expense of legislating fur individuals Our revolutionary Ritters, (poor simple folk.) were far bebind the age, and feit perfectly con- tent with the unassuming name of patriot.

AGnross Perversioy or tag Trutu.—In the edition of Forney’s California Press, tor California circulation, published on the 20ib instant, we find the following ; At the late Democratle State Convention in Virginia, the foliowing resolution was adopted, with only a few dissenting yoices; “Resoived, That we rejoice unfeignediy tn the late victory, so ylorious!y achieved by the loyal Democracy of Iliinols. Brethren ia the same political faith, we recognise their success a3 our triumph, aad, in common with patriotic men of all sections and all parties, we find a special cause for congratulation In the defeat of a dan- gerous sectional organization.”” The truth is, this resolution was offered and adopted without question amid an uproar that defied comprehension for the time being, of its political bearing. A few minutes afterwards, comparative order having been restored, its adoption was reconsidered; and having beon ‘“ventilated’’ by discussion, it was laid on the table with but two dissenting voices. out of the nine hundred delegates in attendance! Tax New Pension Bitu.—The impression Prevails generally, among those around us best informed on such matters, that the Senate will not pass Mr. Savage’s bill pensioning the sur- viving officers and soldiers of the war of 1812, that triumphed inthe House last week. The condition of the Treasury—unprepared as that is to stand the drain of fifteen millions of dol- lars per annum to grow, in the first year, out of its enactment, and probably twenty millions annually afterwards, of course has much to do with the current disinclination of Senators to Pass the bill. To pass it now, it is argued, must involve a return to the highest protective rates of import daties, or a resort to direct tax- ation, neither of which contingencies are ac- ceptable to a majority of the Senate, we fancy. Navau.—Tho steamer Dispatch, from Nor folk, arrived here this morning for the purpose of towiag the sloop-of-war Piymoyth to the Norfolk Navy Yard, where she will undergo a thorough repairing before she again goes into commission. ‘The United States steamer Arctic was spoken off the Capes yesterday, on her return from Pensacola, whithor she was sent some days ago from this city with the ofiicers and crew of the Metacomet, one of the steamers chartered for Paraguay expedition, which had been repaired at the Navy Yard there Arrointyxnrs Conriumad.—The following appointments were recently confirmed by the Scwate: Alexander Wilson to be District At- torney for Utah Territory; Alfred M.

This should be another warning to youths against the too com- mon practice of carrying such dangerous articles about their person. We regret to learn that our worthy fellow citi- zen, Mr. V. Tavior, is still confined to his room by a painful affection of the lungs from which he suffers much. Decidedly the most agreeable and praiseworthy portion of the Christmas day’s celebration in our midst was tbe little demonstration by the Sab- bath School of the —— Mission Chapel, in the care of Dr. Barbarine, and the distribu- tion among the pupils of the fruits of the well laden Christmas tree, which had been prepared for the occasion by their teachers and friends. The exercises were commenced hy the children singing in good style the beautiful Sabbath School hyma commencing, ‘ There is a happy land.” ‘Then followed an appropriate and touch- ing prayer by the Rev. Mr. Tillinghast, and the School singing another hymn, “The Bible—the Bible,” &c. After which, the school teachers and audience were addressed by A. Hyde, Exq. He commenced by saying that some six months ago some six personscommenced the schoo! with only the same number of pupils. Now theschool has enrolled upon its books twenty teachers, male and female, and ninety pupils. At the close of the address by Mr. Hyde, the curtain was removed from around the beautiful Christ- mas tree, displaying its rich fruits to the scores of little ones, sending a thrill of joy to their young hearts, which exhibited itself in the jov- ous smiles that played upon every face. Dr. Barbarine, assisted by Messrs. Tillinghast and Hyde, then proceeded to make a distribution athong the children. Each pupil received a handsome book and a multitude of other articles suitable to the occasion. Indeed, eo completely ‘were some of the little ones laden, that we feared would find some trouble in getting home without help. After the distribution was over, the school and entire audience, which was large sang the long metre doxology, ‘‘Praise God,’ &c. The benediction was pronounced by Mr. Tillinghast, and ali departed for their homes apparently perfectly delighted with the after- noon’s exercises. As has been his custom for many years, W. W. Corcoran, Esq., gave to the inmates of our alms- bouse, on Christmas day, a sumptuon4 dinner. Mayor Crawford, the trustees, and several of our citizens were present on the occasion. We learn that our young friends of the Dam- barton street M. E. Church Sabbath school, fn the care of Mr. Benj. Steinmetz, has determined to give their interesting concert on Tuesday even- ing, Jaanary 4th. We have nothing worthy of note from the markets. 8. ees lice acti Po!
