upon the bill introduced by Mr. Phenix, to in- crease the number of harbor masters at the port of New York, from four to seven. Mr. Phenix referred to the increased and increasing com- merce of the great metropolis as a strong reasoa why the number of harbor masters should be increased. Mr. Cross moved to amendthe bill so that New York should have six harbor masters, and Brooklyn should have the seventh; and that the fees received by these seven officers should b= equally divided among them all. b There was a decided opposition to this amend- ment, whea, on motion of Mr. Bowie, who men- tioned that he would offer a substitute to the bill, the committee rose without voting upon | any of the propositions. 1 “It 1s rumored that Mr. Uzziah Wenman (a member of the last Legislature) will be ap- poiated one of the harbor masters. The war resolutions and the anti-war and the anti-slavery resolutions, which have been intro- duced inte the two houses, have been referred to the committee on military affairs. When these resolutions come up for consideration, we expect to ¥ i eloquence and fury, which would not disgrace even the old House at Washington ; we have some bright-eyed men in the lower House, and we are Waiting to see them snap their leading strings. I give you the following ticket: dent, Henry Clay; for Vice-President, John Van Buren.

At that con- vention we shall have some important proceed- ings. Gedney and Speacer, the newly elected in- spectors of State prisons, made all their appoint- ments without regard to the wishes of the cen- tral regency.

For Presi- Battimors, Jan. 10, 1848, Grand Democratic Ball—Departure of Mr. Clay —The Destructive Fire—The Ice Trade. This evening the grand democratic ball, in honor of the 8th of January, takes place at the Holliday street theatre, which has been floored over and splendidly decorated for the occasion Mr. Clay leaves Baltimore this morning for Washington, after having spent several days in a quiet way with his old friend Christopher Hughes, who was his Secretary at the treaty of Gheat, and is one of our most polished and hos- pitable citizens. He has been called on, during his stay, by large concourses of his old friends, and large numbers are now flocking to the cars to give him a parting salute. Tne extensive retail grocery store of Meesrs. Blair & Satizer, coraer of Centre Market Space and Swan street, was destroyed by fire yester- day moraing, with most of its contents. During the past night ice has been formed in this vict sity, to the thickness of several inches, and the prospects of our ice house keepers hiave improved exceedingly. There has been no ice saved here yet, and the prospects of a good crop are brightening to-dav. Franxrort, Ky., Jan. 1, 1848. Meeting of the Legislature—Election of Speaker —Governor’s Message—Finances of the State. Yesterday the General Assembly of this State met at the capitol, in this city. The Senat- organized itself in a very short time, by the election, unanimously, of the old officers; but in the House a diff-rent scene was presented. On that body being oalled to order by the clerk, and the announcement made that the nominations for Speaker were in order, no less than four whig candidates were nominated, and one demo- crat. The democrats were perfectly united; but the whigs have been too long in the ascendancy in this State not to have party division and fac- ous feelings. Like the democrats of New York e, they wall, ere long, create such a division in the party as to enable their opponents to pass in through the breach, to State power and the public crib. However much opposed to such u result the whigs may be, their course is such as must inevitably lead to it. After baliotiog three several times for Speaker, they adopted the resolution to let ‘the d—it-ke the hind most” unul an election should be had; but some seemed opposed to letting ‘‘ the d—l have his due,” and would re-nominate the candidate having the lowest number of votes, although he was dropped according to the resolu.ion. After balloting seven times, without, apparently, being any nearer the election of Speaker, the House adjourned. This morniag, the candidate who was yester- day dropped by the resolution, was, by the eid of democrats, elected Speaker, by a majority of twelve over all others. The Speaker elect 1s Mr. James T. Buckner, of Christian county. There are in the House three of the v rtici- panisin the bloody conflict of Buena Vista— and a fourth was elected doorkeeper by a trium- phant nixjority. 4 The Governor’s message possesses the merit of brevity; but that, lam happy to state, is not its only merit; its recommendation of the esta- blishment of a common school system, some- thing efter the plan of New York, cannot be considered inappropriate. The financial condi- tion of the State is certainly healthy and sound ; the actual State debt is less than the sum re- ecived in the last year tor tolls on the New York eanals. With such a financial condition, and the prospects of torming and adopting anew con- Blitution that shall be adequate to the wants, and suited to the condition of the people, Ken- tucky will soon be, if she is not now, regarded as one of the first and best of the United States. Itis needless for me to add, that for authentic political and monetary news, the Herald stands in this capital pre-eminently high. Cman.uston, (S. C.) . 30, 1847. Cave Johnson and the Mails—Theatricals. Mr. Cavé Johnson’s management of the Post Office Department is probably without a parallel in the history of the civilized world, and no one but Cave Johnson, whose meanness and incapa- city is only equalled by his self-willed, bullying disposition, would have brought this important branch of the government into its present de- plorable condition. We are not disposed to complain without pret- ty good cause, knowing as we do the difficulties attending the transportation of the mails over many of the routes; but when the largest and most important mail in the United States is taken from one route and placed upon another, merely to gratify amulish disposition, because the con- tractors refuse to be builied and brought to his terms, it then becomes necessury to adopt the course of the New York inerchants—to petition Congress for redress. The recent change of the great Southern mail from the land route via Washington, to what is calird the “Bay route,” went into operation on the 10.h instant. The mail now leaves Baltimore by steamer, through Chesapeake bay to Nortolk, chauged to steamer Curtis Peck end carried to City Poiot, here changed and put_on board a “propeller”’—an old crab of about five rat pow er—and carried to Petersburgh, from thence by cars to Weiden end Wilmington, and trom thence to Charleston by boat.

View of Politics in Ohio—Fustian and-a Fete Facts— Gammon and Gossip, §c., §c., §c. We live in a wonderfulage. Fifty years ago, | Arthur St. Clair stood up in the halls of the American Congress, the sole delegate of the Northwest—the representative of the back- woodsman—the fur trapper of Mad River, the | pioneer of the Wabash, and the bee hunter of the almost impenetrable swamp. This was the primisive age of the republic—the dawning of a new era in the western world. Now, instead of | a solitary delegate from a vast wilderness of country, the same region can boast her represen- tatives of sovereign States, from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan, with a population of mil!- lions of happy, pposperous and contented people. St. Clair and Wayne, Harman and Harrison, and | their associates of former years, have been ga- | thered to their fathers; but their virtues still live, and are held in grateful remembrance by those | who have succeeded to the heritage lett us by | those worthy exemplars of an enterprising race. In a political poiat of view, the great West is now regarded with especial favor by the keen- sighted politician,whose aspirations seek a limit ouly within the walls ef the White House at Washington. As ene of the great sections of the Union, the West 18 destined to exercise a powerful influence in the next Presidential cam- paign; and in order that you may understand more fully the present aspect of the political ho- rizon in this quarter, I will, in imitation of the reat Lexington orator, endeavor to add my nowledge upon this point, to the common stock of intelligence of the country. During the revolution in France, the National Assembly was divided into several sections, bearing the soubriquet of Jacobins, Girondists, and the Mountain. Ia Ohio, the whig party is divided into an equal number of sections. The most formidable of these ere the adherents of Senator Corwin. They undoubtedly number a large majority of the rank and file; and not- withstanding the anti-American sentiments ut- tered by Mr. C., in his celebrated speech on the Mexican war, he nevertheless has a host of warm and devoted friends, who cling to him witha devotion and a love that partake of a filial cha- racter. This can be accounted for in no other way than that Mr. Corwin commenced his ca- reer in life a poor boy, and, from a driver of oxen, and a little old gray mare with a straw collar and a rope bridle, has won his way from obscurity to renown, by the force of native talent, aud the energy of an honest heart. As aman, Tom Corwin is certainly a model of good nature —amiable and sociable, with a_ more than ove flow of the milk of human kindness in his com- position. In his manners, he is a plain, unso- phisticated republican, void of all os entation ; besides, he is one of the most effective stump speakers in the United States Like the celebra- ted Garrick, the actor, he is endewed by nature with a face, one half comic—the other half tra- gic; and by the contraction of his muscles, his oddities and grimaces, he can make a crowd weep and laugi pretty much as he pleases. Here is his strong forte ; and he knows it: the crowd are pleased with his antics, ‘ from grave to gay, trom lively to severe,” and go away well satis- fied in listening to the stump harangues of “Tom, the Wagoner Boy” They shout his praise; and consider him one of the b’hoys. This is the secret ot his popularity and Lu strong hold upon the masses in the Buckeye State, The old hunker division of the whigs still cherish afaint hope that through a concatens- tion of events, produced by division and sub-di- vision, and constant collision, their old favorite courser, ‘Harry of the West,” may be agaia placed upon the political race course. There 1s something open and manly, candid and above- board, in the character of Henry Clay, that se- cures for him the attachment of the great body of the Jeaders inthe whig ranks; and next to Corwin, I have not the lest doubt but Mr. Clay 1s the choice of four-fifths of the whigs of Ohio, for the next Presidency. Judge McLean has some few warm personal friends in the whig ranks, mostly jonuisat in this city, and at the State capital, who would rejoice to see him made the standard bearer of the whig party. Of this nunrber, Judge Wright, of this city, the editor of the Gazette, is the lead- ing wire-worker. While ex-Governor Sew- ard, of New York, was here, some year or two ago, the active friends of McLean were busy coquetting with him, in order to form a coull- tioa with the abolitionists, anti-renters and the Irish interest of the Empire State. This combination, it was thought, had been consum. mated; but the recent givings-out of the Auburn Advertiser (Gov. Seward’s organ) denouncing the Judge as not possessing “ whig sympa- thies,” has operated here as a wet blanket thrown over his prospects. It is well known, moreover, that Judge McLean was once a Cal- houn man, subsequently a Jacksonian, and lat- terly ano-perty quasi whig. The great body of the whig party, therefore, look upon him asa hybrid in politics—and for fear of being again ““Tylerized,” the Judge, notwithstanding the zeal of a few friends, has no earthly chance of receiving whig support in Ohio. You may put him down as completely shelved. Generals Scott and Taylor never hed any strength, as party men, in this State. The “hasty plate of soup’ of the one, and the .no- party notions of the other, have placed them be- yond the category of availables. None other than thorcdgt eo1Be out-and-out party men, will be supported by the whigs of Ohio. You may safely setit down asa * fixed fact,” that the first choice of the waige of Ohio for Presi- dent, is Tom Corwin; and their second choice is hanes Clay. Scott, Taylor or McLean, they will not touch. On this you may safely rely. With respect to the position of the democratic party, they uppearto be at sea withont compass orrudder. The friends of General Cass, com- posed chiefly of the soit money conservativepor- tion of the democratic party, ure zealous and ac- tive, and will make a strong effort to give him the vote of this State in the democratic national nomi- nating convention. The old friends of the sage of Lindeawald are pretly at work, and I should not be at all surprised if the next 8th of January convention at Columbus, galvanize him into po- litical existence. His deteat in 1840, many say, must be atoned for: while the frand of 1844 has created in his behelfa strong feeling of sympa- thy. His warm friend, Hon. John B. Weller, will, undoubtedly, be the democratic candidate for Governor, w d prospects of success ; and truth to eay » Van Buren would re- ceive a better vote in Olio, than any other de- mocratic candidste that can be brought in the field in 1848. With his ‘non-commitalism,” the friends of the Wilmot proviso (numbering a large majority of the rauk and file) would be satisfied, without asking further questions. But they will not support Cass, Buchanan, D#!las, or Woaqdbury, without an open and distinct avowal in favor of the white man’s resolution. Bu- chanan’s letter to the Berks county committee,in favor of the Migsouri compromise, has ruined his prospects, if he ever had any, with the de- mocracy of Ohio. On the principles of that let- ter, he would find a majority of 100,000 rolled up against its author. His fate is sealed. Ohio, more than any other State inthe Union, has rea- son to be proud of her position asa free State, To the ordinance of 1787 (emphatically the Wil- mot proviso) is she indebted for her present greatness in population, in wealth, in enterprise, and in industry. To look at Ohio on one side ot the river, end then at Kentucky on the other, the princ'ples of the Wilmo: proviso may be seen developed in all their strength and beauty. To the Hon. Churchill C. Cambreling, of New York, many are looking as an available candi- date forthe Presidency, in the event of the scenes of 1844 being acted over again at Baltimore. It is well known that Mr. Cambreling is a North | Carolimian by birth, and it is supposed the South | would be willing to take him as # ‘ Northern maa with Southern principles ;” while the North would feel safe that he would take no undue steps to advance the slave power. While he was New York’s commercial representative 1n the lower branch of Congress, Mr. Cambreleng distinguished himself as the advocate of free trade, and otherwise liberal principles. His | views PA banking question are radically is | sound. democracy is_ unquestionable He is equal, at least to James K. Polk, | in pointof talents; and pray, let meask, what good reason exists why Mr. Cambreleng should not be the next President? If a compromise | candidate be required, he is the very man to unite upon. If New York moves off in his be- | halt, there is no telling what a day may bring forth, Let the barn burners look to it. In reference to the Vice Presidency, the de- mocracy of Uhio seem to regard, with almost unaoimous favor, the claims of Gen. Wm. O. Butler, of Kentucky. He will go down with ac- clamation, or something else. If Mr. Clay is to be the whig candidate for Pre- sident—and the indications are all that way—the whigs of Ohio look to Ex-Gov. Seward, of New | York, us the most avatiable candidate for the Vice Presidency. They attribute their defeat in 1844, in agood measure, to the unpopularity of j Mr. Frelingnuysen. {tis said Seward is potent with the Catholic [rish, anti-renters and aboli- tioniets.

ARRIVAL OF THE PORTLAND. (From the New Orleans Piesyune, Jan. 2.) The ateamsh'p Portland, Captain Spinney, arrived last evening from Vera Cruz, whence she sailed the evening of the 24th ult. Her advices are but a few hours later than thos» of the New Orleans. We cannot learn that she brings « word of news. ‘The same rumor prevailed in Vera Cruz, of which we have before heard so much, that General Scott proposed to push e columa upon Queretaro. Our own private ac- counts from the city of Mexico haveled us to believe that General Soott had no desigas upon Queretaro itself. un- leas to pass through that city in order to reach San Luis Potosi or Zacatecas.

MEXICAN ITEMS AND INCIDENTS. (From the Mexico American Star ] Tho reader must frequently have noticed the circular stone worked into one of the cormers of the Cathedral,” without being aware, perhaps, that it is regarded as one ofthe greatest ouriosties in Mexico. It isknown as Mon- tezume’s Dial, and is more worthy of notice than even the bronze equestrian statue of Charies IV in the yard ofthe Museum. It isa large mass of porphyritio sto ten fect in demeter, and of a circular shape. In the o: tre is a human head, with the tongue hanging out, cutin relief, while arouud this are roles of hieroglychic figures, intended for the computation of the different The expenditure for common schools in North Caro- | divisions of time among the Aztecs. Their civil year was divided into eighteen months, of twenty days each —the year commencing on the 26th of February. ‘The reader need not be told that no clue bas yet been teund to Mexican hieroglyphics. Much has been written about the cries of London and New York, and attempt has been made even to set them to music. ‘I'he cries of Mexico are deserving of equal immortalization, and we abould like much to see them illustrated—not by quavers and semi-quavers merely--but by pen and pencil. Some of them are really frightful to hear. We have seen an Indian wo- man, wit a pack of herbs on her back, throw her voice from the street through a long alley and spacious court yard, to the inbabited part ct tho house, with o ponderosity and solid elongation of voice that must bave knocked in tho door unless barred with triple iron. Her tones are as various aud discordant, from the thun- dering bass to the most delicate treble, as those of a cracked fiddle with the file and saw as a delightful ac- companiment. Much of this music may be heard in the streets early in the morning, and it is amusing to hear the ryllabic elongation of the Spanish words employed, which, by the are not always the most classical If we bad suitable types we rhould attempt an illustra- tion, but as it is, we leave the reader to imagine ths musical scale. There js one class of oriers, however, well known to the English and American cities, who are a dead letter—a oypher—not a crotchet even—in Mexico. We mean the chimney sweeps The Mexi- cans have no fire-place-; chimnies would seem to be quite @ non sequitur, and chimuey sweepers entirely an idea nobility. However, there are oriers enough in the sireets without going to the house tops for more. The lungs of women seam to hold out the longest, and their voices are always more shrill and piercing than those of the men who perambulate the atreets. ‘he market of Mexico is one of the tinest in the world. It covers the interior of a rquare, (the exterior being small shops.) and is crowded trom daylight till dark with Indians and hucksters of vegetables and fruits.

The inducements for Americans and Europeans to settle here, are vary great Mechanies of every description will find the state of the mechanic arts very low, and that their labor will meet with an adequate recompecse. Farmers, too, from the United States would, in a short period, revolutionize the agricultural condition of the country, and gather wealth enough to gratify ordinary ambition. Until Mexieo has a good government, and sees education and intelligence more generally diffused among her people, she must be poor, sad her great interests must languish. God grant that the occupation of the Republic by the United States, may tend to the redemption of the people, and the establishment of the government on the basis of republicanism. justice, and intelligence | As to-day finishes the month of November, we trust that many of the fashions observed during the montn. will ba replaced by others of a more becoming mould, and wil suzgeat one or two, which, we think, would b- sppropriate. Gentlemen should only show themselves to the audience in the pit or boxes of the theatre, and not from the stage, as was frequently done in November— for so far out upon the boards have we seen some of them Uhat we often mistook them for the actors. Yelling in the theatre will be unfashionable duriog December, for it has been so short a time since the etorming of Contre- cas und Chapultepec, that it isnot needed to remind ur of it. Boots over the boxes will be unpardonable during the next month, unless they be silver heeied and well polished, and not then unless some handsome and favorite lady be bittiog be- neaththem. The cheering of distinguished officers will be dispensed with in the theatre dui'ng the month of December, uviess it be better gotten up, for recently it has been feebly performed, and on ono occasion it re minded us of Buckingham’s story to Richard—that when he bad fluished his epeech, a few followers of his hurled up their capa, and cried, “ Long live King Rich- ard!” As many of the nativo ladies are becoming so much Yankeefied as to wear the shawl and bonnet in place cf the rebozo, we will teil them that, however well it may look in the streets, it is in bad taste to appear £0 in the boxes of a theatre. On a recent occasion, we no- tioed two io pink bonnets, the “ observed of all ob- servers.” It the desire was to copy the Yankee women the figure was missed, for @ Yankee girl would no more think of going to atheetre bonnetted, than she would ‘oa ball ; and we trust that during December it will be “reformed altogether.” A few days ago General Scout and,auite, in full dress, visited the Arehbishop, and yer- terday that dignitery returned the compliment, and remained in the general’s quarters for sometime.

Not only the privates, but fre- quently the officers, were guilty of insubordination, and mutinies among them were of common occurrence.— St. Louis Republican, Dee. 30. Mall Failures.
