Yes, sir, 1 was your early and fast friend. — When your star rose over the surface of these verdant prairies, full of the light reflected from your arms, South Carolina inn emerged out of fearless struggle, which single handed she waged in defence of the Constitution of the United States, as ex- monet him who drew the Declaration of Indepen- lence, and those principles of free trade which are at ence the vital element and just reward of human industry, I confess that I flung myself, without scarcely ment's relaxation from the toils of a disti which I had occupied in my own State, with an irrepres- sible enthusiasm in your cause. Independently of the ‘mpathy I felt in your heroic struggle, beould not ut venture to anticipate that what we had contended for in South Carolina, was to be realised in the auspicious fortunes which were dawning on your country. purse, pen and tongue, in the exercise of all the yy of speech with which God had endowed me, were dedicated to your service. My arm would not have been wanting (feeble as it mi whom you sent down to the harvost of death at San J cinto, had left a single enemy to subdue or a single 7 oe be won. But valor had left nothing for ambition glean. Of the events connected with my civil and foreign ser- vices to the late Republic, am admonished both of the propriety and delicacy of my being brief. Such as they were, they were ered with fidelity and zeal. The re- cognition of your independence b; reat Britain gave you the sovereign faculty of cakiog the compact of an- nexation which you have consummated with the ernment of the United States.

And here you will permit me to offer some explanation of an apparent. inconsistency that I, who had been so strenuous an advocate for the recognition of your sov- ereignty and independence by other nations, should sub- sequently have been ap ardent champion for their being merged (at least in a qualified sense) in the government of this confederacy.

Laffite & Co., of Paris, in 184 been grossly misrepresented by those who never that contract. It was a financial projet drawn, as I hs reason to believe, out by James Laffite, that valiant chaim- ion of liberty, and distinguished banker, to convert even- ually thirty-seven millions of money certificates into land warrants at seven francs-per acre. This measure was defeated by the perfidy and injustice of the French Minister of Finance, without, as I have the best reasons to think, consulting’ his government, and I believe, with the regret of the ‘htened King of the French and his highly accomplished Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. G zot, of whom nothing more need be said than that his = public and private virtues are on a level with his tinguished genius, But enough of this subject. It has given me it ite pain to appear before your Le- gislature, holding and representing, as I do, large claims vo your government. In reference to the former, if the interests of others were not involved, I do not know that in the self-sac: affection of my children, I would not have found a justification so entirely in har- mony with my own inclination in abstaining from senting them. But in reference to the claimsof others whom I induced, in the darkest hours of your fortunes, to adventure their money in your service, I have a higher duty to perform—a duty which I could not neglect, with- out it lity to them, and dishonor to myself. That Texas has both the ability and the willingness to pay every debt which by a fair and equitable examination can be justly brought against her, cannot be doubted by those who have any knowledge of her intelligent popu- lation and of her Bg resourc: and as the best means of meeting the legitimate demands of her credi- tors, permit me (who, like yoursolves, is a landholder, freeholder, and tax payer in Texas) to suggest the policy of transferring your public lands to the government of the United States, upon such terms as would place the cha- racter and credit of your State upon Sapte dT sien and secure to her an immediate prosperity. The public do- main, now an inert mass far too unwicldy for your State government to handle, would become, under such an rangement, a source of value and beneficent usefulne to yourselves and whole Union. Their purchase, by the United States, is a great measure of national policy, which has no more to do with the assumption of State debts than the purchase of Louisiana from France neces- rily involved an assumption of her revolutionary as- rial what ordinances of annexation have passed; they cannot tak: themselves its rev signi ts. tis wholly immate: the United State: your custom hou nues, with all the ng to the sover- eign faculty of indirect taxation, without Providing fo debts for which those very revenues were ple ged when, therefore, you propose to surrender public domain for the purpose of paying your public debt, you make a gratuitous concession to the sacred object of your public faith, equally creditable to your honor and antegri! With a renewed assurance of my gratitude to your honorable body for the distinguished compliment they have paid, I am, with greatest respect, your obedient servant, JAMES HAMILTON. Police Office. The Adopted Child.—A very graphic and amusing acene occurred on recently at the Police office, before the sitting Magistrate. The parties were of the lowest order. The complainant was a little short-nosed Irish woman, called Mary Brown, with sore eyes, pitted with the small pox, no upper teeth, and withal, a head of hair of the reddest kind you could imagine. She stated to the Magistrate that a black gentleman had her baby, (point- ing to a strapping big black-eyed negro, who isa night scavenger by trade, which was very evident from the fragrance that was diffused throughout the court room,) bg name of Jo McGregor. At this time our atten- n was drawn to a very dark mulatto baby, of about six months old, laying ia the arms of a black woman, the wife of Jo, who positively refused to give itup. Jo then stated that he had paid Mary Brown 10 “shillin” for the eee, he having no children of his own; thereupon he He also said hi laidtout 3 “shillin” more in buyin; the little thing. While allthis al- on, who should come running into the office but a white man, who proved to be Mary’s hus band, called John Brown. It seems he had just returned fro ind in searching for his wife learned she was at the Police office, om be, you must understand, was not born when the husband went to sea.) Jack, catch- ing only @ of the story, felt very indignant at the abduction of his d ring, but ‘on turning around he saw an infant la: in the lap of @ black wor is thisour child” “Y With ‘this reply, Jack was nfounded; he strained his eyes to the ut- most, opened his mouth, turned his quid, Bitehed up his trousers, and exclaimed, ‘shiver my timbers,Mary, wh: that’s a nigger.” “Oh! no !” said Mary, “don’t be John, it’s only a little ‘Brown,” “That be d——d,” Jack, “you can’t come that load over me no how you can fix it.” With this Jack gotinto a terrible rage, and awore big guns, he would have satisfaction out of all the niggers in New York, and ing with an- ger ho ran out of the office, denouncing the virtues of all married women. This burst of feeling from Jack raised the ire of Mary, who, with the maternal affection for this lit dark bility, “grabbed” the child from the arms of t woman, and bolted out of the office after her hus! to give the best possibl Eor tlege Jord, jor the wrongs he had ev! the negro and his wife following close after, m: femanl of either the chiJd, or the 10 “shillins.” In | way, the parties left the office, it being out of the juris- diction o! strate to settle such matters; and tercation was goi = ib. | whether Joka became reconciled to his “Brown” child apply to ‘Maiden lane. ond the Ot whtel We Lh Ts a we are unable to learn at present.

Extraordinary scenes in Austria—Ancient Customs and Ceremonies—Passion Week in Vienna—Po- land—Segar Smoking—Novel mode of preventing in the streets, by one of the Guards, §c. The Spring is always a joyful and prolific sea- son, and the present one at Vienna is most lavish opera, and three new German ones, with a pro- mise of Jenny Lind as prima donna, and thou- sands of flowers to wreath garlands for her brow. Tt has drawn out the silk stocking aristocracy into the open air, and made them more accessible to plebeian eyes—it has given them an opportuni. their liveried servants, whose business it is to un- | tie the latehets of their shoes, and blow the dust from their tender feet. Poor troubled souls! It has also brengut a healing balsam, in the shape of Holy Passion rest, during which their ears, eyes, bodies, souls and purses, have not been tormented by the im- tunities of concert givers and their music. They ave had one week of respite to gather new farees, collect new sums, and make new bou and verses to greet the Northern Nighting: her visit South. But the cessation of life in one sphere, has been only to give life to another; Passion Week is rich in attractions, and devoted to the cause of religion. Have you tickets to see the “foot washing?” inqui- red a number of my Austrian friends. ‘I have not.” ‘Well, you must not miss the sight, by any means; the Emperor feeds twelve P ad old men and washes their feet, while the ress performs the same office for twelve poor old wo- ” This ceremony is performed on the day preceding Good Friday, and is intended to repre- sent the humility of their majesties, notwithstand- ing their elevated positions;—it was a sight not to be neglected, and I was accordingly present On entering the coronation saloon of the palace I found a brilliant assembly collected, composed mostly of the nobility and military officers, in their uniforms; the ladies of rank and civil officers were seated in the galleries, occupying the sides of the saloon, while the centre was filled with the military—the whole making a gorgeous display. Here a Hungarian nobleman, in the peculiar and dramatic uniform of his country; there a knight ef the order of Malta; here a group of Austrian gene- rals, covered with orders; there a party of the Ita- lian noble guards; here a company of Hungarian hussars, noblemen; and there a group of knights of the middle ages. These were the spectators chosen by the Emperor to be eye-wit- nesses to the fact that he follows the example of humility given to men by the King of Kings. In a few minutes twelve old and decrepid men, dressed in dark garments of ancient style, enter- ed the spacious halls, accompanied by a child or friend, who assisted in bearing their trembling limbs to the row of seats assigned to them. Twelve old und feeble women also entered, and were seated opposite. These had been selected from the old, the mnim and the infirm of the lanes and alleys of the metropolis, and great pride ‘is shown in selecting the most aged who are able to bear the exertion. For ten successive years a patriarch of more than a hundred winters. led the band, Dut durin; the last year he died at the age of one hundred an twelve. The oldest, this year, was ninety-five, among the men, and their combined ages were 1089; the oldest among the women was ninety- six, and their combined ages 1081. It was a rare sight to see in one company twenty-four individ- uals who possessed collectively the experience of more than two thousand years. The Emperor, on entering, was accompanied by the Archdukes oi the House, Chamberlains, &c., and the Empress by the Archduchesses and ladies of the Court. ‘r some familiar conversation with their aged guests, a repast of the richest kind was brought in, and their imperial majesties turned waiters, performing the duties of their office with an abili- ty which might pre-suppose experience; they not only fed the hungry, but also provided them ‘with ample stores for hungry mouths at home, by fill- ing alarge basket for each one, w! required two men to carry it. It is a principle adopted, to give the old folks every thing they use at their meal—consequently a handsome silver wine cup, knife, fork, &c.—and these are preserved as me- morials of great value. The repast being finished, the tables are removed, and the Empress, with the ladies of the Court, 12 in all, proceed to take off the shoes and stockings of the old women, when the Empress washes, dries, and kisses their feet—The Emperor performing the same duty for the men; after which, the imperial ‘ foot wash- ers,” arranging the shoes and stockings of their ancient guests, present them with thirty pieces of silver each, and kindly take leave of them, express- ing the hope that their days may be lengthened to share the ceremonies of another ahniverea- ty. This religious observance is of great impor- tance, and its object is to prove to the people that he who rules them is ready, when occasion re- es to wash their feet and feed them, as did. the Saviour of men to those who loved and obeyed him. And I may be pardoned for observing that, however much religion it may contain, it has not neglected to spice the dish with diplomacy. n the afternoon of Good Friday, all classes of the Vienna population flock into the streets, and the latter are fairly swarmed with human beings, whose ostensible object is to visitthe churches, in all of which is represented the Holy Grave at Je- rusalem. Some of these graves aré reallyfbeauti- ful, being so arranged as to have figures, as large as life, of the dead body of Christ in the sepulchy, guarded by angels, and the weeping women at the entrance to the tomb. The illusion is height- ened by the aid of perspective, and is arranged in such a part of the church as to lend to every thing the appearance of reality, and almost convince the spectator that he is looking into the sepulchre of the Holy City. At night, illuminated crosses are seen on the mount of Calvary, solemn masses are performed, and the people pass in crowds from one church to the other. On the next day, the procession of the resurrection takes Nae which is composed ofall the members of the imperial ceurt, and moves within a hollow square, surrounded by the palace buildings. A permission to witness this is, therefore, of value, as it can only be seen to ad- vantage from the palace windows, The empress | and highest ladies of the court, appear in this procession, dressed in flowing robes, whose lon trails are borne by es. The emperor an members of the imperial family, chamberlains, secret-counsellors, court-singers, and administer- ing clergy, all appear in full gala, bearing torches and chaunting masses, amid the blast of trumpet covered by Capgas oa and enveloped in clouds o! frankincense. No other oy in the world can present a procession of this kind, that equals it in splendor ; not even Rome, for the holy father has not the fair sex to grace his ceremony; and the noble figure and majestic bes ny Tt © empress as 5 + of Austria, and the Archduchg: hia, her suc- | cessor, adds much to the dignity and solemnity of the scene. The entire procession enters the im- | perial chapel, where ahigh mass is performed, and the religious ceremonies are cl . |.

If #0, it is sheer ne- cessity, and will be opposed by the aristocracy here and throughout the empire, this class being the conservatives in all countries. If the peasants of Gallicia receive an increase of privileges, the | peasants of Hungary will expect the same; and |i proportion as they rise, the aristoeracy must come down, which fact causes the latter class to shudder at any thing like a grant of rights to those by whose labor they are supported in pomp and seen, that the go- verninent, in calling in the aid of the peasantry in the late has _nouti: a viper that is now gnawing its vitals.

There | is no doubt that Lord Brougham, with all his faults and eccentricities, is a most profound think- er and a polished writer.

A new and commodious hotel has just been opened by Mr. T. Swift, immediately at the landing, near the ferry. It is called the Atlantic Hotel, and is constructed on a plan calculated to afford infinite comfort and satisfaction to its inmates.
