It has yet to pass the House, and in the meantime, we understand, the Clerk of the House and the Secretary of the Senate will not open the bids to: morrow, until some action is had by the House on the reeolution. The object of this movement we understand to be to restore the public printing to the offices of the Antelligencer and Union, or the , on the old plan. But there are many members of both ho opposed to it, and we believe that the con- tract syetem will go on.

Arrest of Newsboys— Sullivan and Hyer—Ac- esdent, &c. Mother Earth was clad with a mantle of snow this morning, at least ten inches in depth, and the sleigh bells commenced their merry jingle, pro- mising enjoyment to those who delight in this pastime, which will be very fleeting, however, as the weather is so mild that it cannot last long. Mayor Swift yesterday performed a most Quix- otic act, in ordering the capture of a number of ) oor boys, who were selling the New York Heraid and copies of the Sunday Dispatch about our streets. The Jaulee officers, in pursuance of in- structions, laid their plans, and pouncing upon the poor varlets, conveyed them to the city lock-up, with their stock in trade. This morning, the tro- phies of their chivalrous onslaught and victory were presented to his honor, in the shape of thir- teen boys, who, after acting 1m the dock a couple of hours, were remanded till to-morrow morning, when they will probably be discharged, with an admonition to go and ain no more. When it 18 con- sidered now much vice and profligacy are know- ingly suffered to exist in our midst; when gim- bling hells and houses of prostitution front on our principal thoroughtares; when the most corrupt practices of the stool pigeon sysiem are main- tained and fostered by the police themselves, it must be concluded that the worthy functionary a!- luded to has a wonderful capacity for “straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel.”’ It 13 to be hoped that, though the work of reformation has com- menced among the small try, it will not end there. The fight between Sullivan and Hyer 1s carrying all our fancy men South, and asa good portion of the thieves and piekpockets accompany them, our citizens would not mind if they established them. selves there en permanence.

The American government, by suppressing the ninth article of the tieaty of Guadaleupe, and substituting the third article of the treaty of Louisiana, did not intend to diminish 1m any way what was agreed upon Whe Pardon of John Harrison, Imprisoned for keeping a bi Hi Aumayy, Numerous applications have beon pres pardon of Jobm Harrison, who was convicted, on con- fersion, in the New York Sessions, of keeping a disor- derly house, and was sentenced on 18th 1846, to pay @ fine of $250, and be impriso: ty days in the Penitentiary.

Ntcation for the pardon in this case imputes the sove! - ty of the sentence upon Harrison to feelings on the PN ep peri gn, golem part of the Recorder and District Attorney, resulting ¢ the inbabitants of the ceded territories, | from Folitical opposition. The late Recorder of the city of New York, (who ided inthe court when Harrison was convicted) asons for the dis- punishment awarded to Harrison asrigns in substance that Harrison which second conviction, He says:—* [ re that there bas been any conviction on an indictment for keeping a gambling ho sioce I have been Recorder. where the Court awarded a fine only for srecond offence. Onthe contrary, it was well understood that imprisonment must be the con- er sed b: Pitte ninth article of the treaty had been retained, ‘will be epjoyed by them without any difference under ‘the article which hasbeen substituted. 3. The Ameri- ¢an government, by suppressing the tenth article of | the treaty of Guadaloupe, did not, in any Mg intend to annul the grants of land made by Mexico in the ceded territories. There grants, notwithstanding the suppression of this article of the treaty, preserve the legal value which they may possess, and the gua- Fantees may cause their legitimate titles to be acknow- ledged before the American tribunal. “Conformebly to the laws of the United States, legitimate titles te every description of property, per- sonal and real, existing in the ceded territories, are those which were legitimate titles under the Mexican Jaw in Cslifornis and New Mexico, upto the thirteenth of May. 1846, and in Texas up to the second of March, 1836. 8. The government of the United States, b supprer sing the concluding paragraph of article twelftl of the treaty, did not intend to deprive the Mexican Tepublic «f the free and unrestrained facility of eying, or transferring, (at any time, as it May judge best,) the sum of $13,000,000, which the same government of the United States is to deliver in the places designated by the amended article. | * Aud these explanations having been accepted by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Mexican re- public, be declared in the name of thisgovernment, ‘that, with the understanding conveyed by them. the | same government would proceed to ratify the treaty of G daloupe, as ratified by the Senate and govern- ment of the United States “ Im testimony of which their Excellencies, the afore- said Commissioners, and the Minister, have signed and , the present Protocol ‘Agal ry other case a fine was imposed a ‘first’ cffence, and in noinstance has there been cond éffence, or rather conviction, except in the case ot Herrison.”? Again he ea: « Harrison was the first care I had found it necessary to imprison, because sil others thovght it prudent not to commit a second offence, atall events, m0 case occurred,” The Recorder also refers to another complaint against Harrisox, on which an indictment was found on the 6th of December, 1848, A lettepfrom the District At- torney shown that this indictment was for winniag more than $26 at one time by gambling. When the offence war committed, does no appear; but as the sen- tence was pasted upon Harrison on 18th of November, 1848, the indictment rubsequently fouad on Oth Dec'r, could not have influenced the Court in awarding the punishment on the previous conviction ‘The applicants for the pa don bave farnished me a certificate from the Clerk of the Court of Sessions, of | ail the convictions in that cou t, and for the New York Oyer aud Terminer, for keeping gambling houses, 4)” NATHAN CLIFFORD, | @tring the years 1846, 1847 and 1848, There appears te “L 8.

James Berry. who was alro convicted ia May, 1818, and oaly fived $100, appears also to have been convicted on the 16th October, 1846, and was then fined $125. Harri- #0n’s previous conviction appears to have been on the 17th October. 1846, only two days after that of Berry; ano the indictment on which Harrison's recond con- viction was bad, was found on 10th May, 1848 a few dey before Berry's second conviction. It ald term from this that Berry and Harrison had possibly been partners or associates in guilt, and yet on Berry's second conviction, a fine enly of $100 was imposed, , on bis second eouviction, fined to imprisonment.

THE PURLIC PRINTING ‘The Sreazzn laid before the House the following ation. viz :— of the de- and House the resolution of Congress, prosuring the printing of the Tere. the Seoretary of the Svoate proposals us | | panies of Yu ent indians, die , de. if Tom the New Orleans Delts, Jan. 25 By the arrival here yesterday of the brie Mac gonme, Capt. Chamberlin, trom Campeaeby, 4th inst., we have news from the peninsula up to. the date of her departure, and Merida papers, Et Boletin Oficial, to the 26th ult. The military operations of the government troops, which are recorded 10 these papers, are a series of continued triumphs ot the whites over the [Indians, the latter having been suce-ssively driven from the most important poiuts, which they had previously wrested from the Yucateocos. The capture of Peto, which we have already noticed in our paper, seems to have quite dispirited the [n- dians, wile success has emboldened thetr adver- saries. On the 12th ult , Col. Mendez, command- ing the 4th division of the forces in the field, in waion Col. White’s American regiment 1s emb» died, took the important city of Tihosueo, the .n- dians ubandoning it athis approach. This was the headquarters of the insurgent chiefs, and the very focus of the insurrection. The Boletim, in an extra published on the 17th ult , states that the war may be now consicered virtually at an end, by. the fall of this plece. A few days atter this, the 17th ult , a fight took place between the hostile forces, the Indians being commanded by their famous leader, Jacinto. Pat, when the latter were defeated, and Columpich, Pat’s hacienda, or farm, was occupied by the Yu- cate cos. ‘These are the only incidents we learn from the papers; but Lieutenant J.J. Gaines, who came paseenger by the Machigonne, furnishes us with the eleaicg interesting particulars; relative to the operations of the American regiment, under Col. White, in the Yucatan service. On the 24th ult, Lieut. Col. Besancon, with a detachment ot his regiment, amounting to about 8C6O men, attacked the Indians, who were from 6,000 to 8,000 strong, and routed them. We regret to jearn that, in the unequal conflict, Capt. Kelly and Lieut. Campbell were mortally wounded; and a private, whose name has not transpired, was killed. On the 28d, near the city of Tihosuco, the whole regiment, commanded by Col. George W, White, was engaged by the enemy, when our gallant fel- Jows lost 38 in killed and wounded. | Among the former are Lieut, John H. Gallagher, of Captain Malloy’s compuny; sergeants Long and Conway. of Capt. Briggs’s company; and corporal Morse, o! Capt. Freeland’s company of rangers. On the 27th ult., while the regiment was vancing from Tihosuco to Tela, distant about six leagues, skirmishes occured nearly the whole way. The Indians were in overwhelming force, and to impede the course of the advancing column, they threw up barricade, of rock and large masses of stone at intervels across the road, leaving therein Joop-holes to fire through. As the Americans stormed one burricade, the enemy retreated to another, and so on. Col. White, however, eap- tured and burned the town of Tela, and then fell back on Tihosuz0, where they arrived on the 29th after hard fighting, with a loss of eight men killed and wounded. ; On the 6th instant Col. White again took up the Jine of march with his gallant Americans for Tiho- suco, which had become his head quarters, for the sea port of Bacalar, where the Indians were re- ported to be in great force uader their great chief, Jacinto Pat. This has been, no doubt. the scene of a sanguinary struggle, where eur gallant fellows have gained tresh laurels. We await further intelli- gence bh impatience. ¢ We append the tollowing compendium from the field of operations, which will be read by all our tellow citizens with great intereat:— Zexas, Yucatan, Our good friends in New Orleans are no doubt curious to know what has become of the Yucatan vo- lunteers, who came over to this country to protect it from the hostile incursions of the savags Indians, To satiefy their curiosity, | undertake no to give yous fall account of all our operations. Our command under Col. White, reached this place yesterday ; the other four companies, under Lieutenant Colonel Besancon, having preceded us forty-eight hours. Several engage- ments have lately taken place between the Indians and Yucatecor, fa all of whioh the latter wore vio toricus. The amount of killed and wounded I cannot aecertain. After taking up our line of march from Merida, the capital of Yucatan, and proceeding on some twenty- five miles, we entered upon that portion of thecountry which had been r by the Indians. The appear- ance of the country fully confirmed the alarming ao counts published in the United States respecting the destructive ferocity of these savages.

The Colonel ccntinued his march some nine miles farther to an Indian town. where he remained all night, the Indians allthe while firing intothe town In the morning he burned the town and retired to the elty. During the absence ot Col. Hexangon, the Indians, some eight or ten thousand in number attacked this city im broad day Night. They kept up the attack forfour hours.

Tsxas.--By the arrival here, yesterday, of the steamship Galveston, Captain Crane, from Galves- ton, we have received the News of that city to the 23d inst., inclusive. We take thence the follow- tng items ot intelligence :— The steamers New Orleans, Captain Auld, and Yacht, Captain Wilsor, arrived here yesterday trom Port Lavaca. . The various towns on Mata- gorda Bay were quite healthy. General Worth und staff were to leave Lavaca yesterday for San Antonio, where, as we betore stated, the head- quarters of the division will be established. | We have, by the Yacht’s mail, the Victoria Ad: vocate of the 12th inst., trom which we learn that a company is being organized in Victoria to go to Calitornia by land, on the Ist of March next. Mr. A. M. Wigginton is at the head of the party. The steamer Kute Ward was at Indian Point a few days ago, says the Advocate, preparatory to her entrance into our river. _ Major O’Brien is stationed as Quartermaster at Port Lavaca. The Advocate apprehends that a strong eflort will be made, at tne next session of our Legisla- ture, 10 remove the seat of government to some other part of the State, probably te Huntsville.— News, Jan. 23. i The steamboat Billow arrived from Houston this morning, and we regret to say that the ac- counts represent the cholera there to be now worse than ever. The following extract of a letter, dated Houston, Jan. 23, says the cholera has broken out again, and I am atraid it will be very bad, owin to the horribly filthy condition of the city. Col. Walton and his daughter died last night; Gen. Baker’s daughter is not expected to live. There are a good many other cases. Aprivate funeral notice, dated yesterday, has been handed us by a een ey the burial of Col. John H. Walton, Miss Frances Aon Brown, and Rebecea, infant daughter of General Mosely Baker, deceased. The Houston Presbyterian of the 20th imst., states, that owing to the bad weather, they have not had a mail from the interior counties for seve- ral days. The same paper says that little business 1s now done in that city. They have had con- tinued rains, and the Bayou was very high, and rising rapidly. The farmers of Lavaca county have formed themselves into a society, to be called the Lavaca County Agricultural Society—the object of the move being to bring about a better spirit of im- provement in farming. We believe it is the first movement of the kind that has taken place in Texas, and, we trust, will accomplish the purposes intended by its founders.—N. O. Commercial Times, Jan. 27.
