INTELLIGENCE BY THE MAILS, Our Washington Correspendence. Wasnincton, November 24, 1819. The President's Message—National Bank—The Cabinet—Col. J. W. Webb—The Osage Indians —The Levee, ¥c. ‘The National Intelligencer of this morning con- tains an editorial with reference to the forthcoming President's message. The writer says that his op- portunities for knowing its contents are no better than those enjoyed by the public ; yet he ventures to foreshadow them, and tells confidently what it will net contain. The Secretary of the Treasury, it appears, is to recommend a modification of the tariff law of 1846, to “ protect” Pennsylvania iron and the manufactures of the North ; and the i im- provement of rivers and harbors, and legislation in relation to the disposition of our vast territories ac- quired from Mexico, which Senator Webster said were “not worth a dollar,” are to be urged in the message. We have the promise that the document will be longer than the ‘President desired, but will not much exceed the Inaugural. This is news, especially for country editors who have here- tofore given Presidents’ messages in their papers in bro! frend doses, there being too much dross in ome to be digested in a less period than six 8. mye have no hint about Mr. Cli n’s_ bank, the scheme of which has been le public. It may be indivsntly praised by the Se relay, of the ‘Treasury, and the details Wig forward by the feeler in the House of Representatives, se- conned by a Mangum in the Senate. uc. the time of the two branches of Congress may FA saved, hewever, by saying nothing about banks. e have im the country plenty ‘of Cali- le do not care forma gold, and the mass of the to soil their hands with lampblack. ' There was an extra meeting of the cabinet to, day. The message was before the members, each of whom had something to say about it, Mr. Clay- ton particularly. The great desire is to make it short, to accord with the Shakpearean idea, that « brevity is the soul of wit.” Our foreign rela- tions are noticed, and remarks made about the con- templated railroad and the canal to connect tne two oceans. The United States Ministers, Charges, Com- missioners, Consuls and commercial agents abroad [saps been, or are soon to be, officially informed of the appointment of Col. J. W. Webb as Charge to Vienna. As there is no mistake about the commis- son, it 1s wondered why the administration papers ot Washington do not mention it. The Colonel is in town. The delegation of six Osage Tahans, who have been for several weeks in Washington, were to have left the city to-day, for their homes. The ‘were comfortably quartered at the Western Hotel irs. Jemmy Maher, nae § a mother, attende to chair comfort. On Thu rsday night, entering their room, \ = found the ‘King covered in a bed on the floor, with his legs stuck st the mantel- iece, and a pipe in his mouth. The chief counsel- lor smoked a cigar, and the other four amused themselves by singing a tune, accompanying them- selves with what they considered instrumental mu- sic, namely—hollow gourds, and gravel inside, with whic! a pier o operated as ocientifically as the bone-cracke®. ‘These Indians were naked, with the exception of the breech-cloth ; and, disdainiag chairs, they squatted before the ‘fire, delighted in feos no encumbtance on their limbs. The Com- missioner of Indian A flairscat them to be cloth- ed in broadcloth and Lad shoes Pesee on their feet, and dressed in all respects as white men ; but, get- ting tired of the harness before night, "they took it ofl. The consequence was, they all caught cold in the head and 8 the throat. In the course of con- yersation, through the interpreter, a half breed, we learned that all reir nation are cold water people having discarded strong drink two years ago5 that they are resolved to transmit to their dren the virtue of sober parents. Jemmy Maher, the =i lic gardener, his son Gieorge Washington, and Maher, presented them with pictures of the Pres dents, and they were delighted with the et of carrying home all their great fathers. The na- tives favored the company with one of their im- promptu songs, performed in the best monotonous are meking use of only three notes in the gamut e ourd. Last ni, ht, the President’s house was thrown open for the reception of the public. Many stran- 7 were present, ladies and gentlemen. The East having been redecorated and newly carpeted, and illumined with gas jetting from spleadid chan- jeliers, made Cornelius, was selected for the promenade; the buzzing of a thousand voices, and an occasional loud laugh, being a subatitute tor —e music. The President was remarkably a, eupectally tothe ladies. Mrs. Bliss was near to her er, plainly attired. Before the hour of 10, the 4 come in to bid farewell to teal — father. They presented a different spectacle what they did when huddled around Jemmy Maher's kitchen fire the night before. They had had their broadcloth trimmed at the seams with lace, and | cocked hats had come to town. The company se- parated at a late hour, highly pleased, with invita- Uions to come again. Feutx.

As her threats concerved only the personal injury of Kilpatrick, they were disregarded, and finally forgotten. When the large fire occurred in the village last winter, it origin- ated in a house belonging to Kilpatrick, and though it brought the threat of Miss D. to mind, no othe: cir- cumstances appeared to corroborate suspicion. Shortly afver, the hotel of A Hawkins was fir ut al and extinguished.

Police Intelligence. Sunday Morning, before Justice Mountfort.—The return of prisoners on ‘the Sabbath morning, before the magis- trate, consisted of a desperate and destitute look- ing set of vagabonds, loafers, drunkards, and burglars. ‘The court room was crowded almost to suffocation, and the weather being warm, enly helped to increase the ‘bad atmosphere already created by the dirty and miser- able condition of the prisoners. A number of the pri- soners were ccuamented with black eyes, swollen faces, cut noses, and tattered clothing, which made the scene one of miserable interest, exhibiting to the casual ob- server poor human nature in some of its most degraded forms. The first prisoners called up for ju ent, were two men, charged with burglary Fn the 3d legree, in breaking into the law office of Mr. James T.

BSatuxpar, Nov. 24—6 P, M. ‘This being the last day of the week, and notteawer's news at band, trade continued languid, and with-the exception of transactions im cotton, the market for the leading articles of produce closed without anima- tion. There was more doing in cotton, and the de- scriptions supplied by the Gulf porte, which were less plenty, were in better demand, and at a shade firmer prices. The flour market was less firm, and in some desoriptions prices ruled in favor of the buyer. Pretty free eales of Canadian were made, but in some cases at a slight decline. There has been a larger amount of Canadian produce, including ashes, flour and wheat, received and sold in bond in this market, the present sea- son than was ever known before. This is owing to the changes in our commercial regulations, and chiefly to the operations of the Canadian transit bill and bonding ware- hous ym. The New York market is now anxiously looked to by Canadian merchants, whose eperations are influenced to = great extent by the course of trade here, Not only so, but many of their supplies in the | way of West India and other foreign produce are bought in bond in this city, and forwarded to Canada, all tend. ing to augment the trade and intercourse between this city and the British provinces. This trade is likely to increase with every succeeding year, giving gratifying evidence of tne enduring benefits arising from the commercial ameliorations referred to. The advent of free navigation will likely also stimulate and extend the trade between Canada and New York. The market for Southern brands of flour continued dull, with mo- derate sales. Rye flour and meal exhibited no change. There ‘was very little doing in wheat, while prices were inally the same. Corn contin , with a Sav cmaiad of ensciions. Theve ves ne ange {i otber grain.
