Wasninaron, April 26, 1850, The Investigating Committees are still at work. Yesterday, in the presence of the committee, some hot words passed between Mr. Meredith, the Secretary of the Treasury, and Mr. Johnson, the Attorney General. Each made accusations against the other. When these cases are disposed of, if President Taylor should continue to be incredulous, a movement will be made on the whig side which will convince him, It is a matter of common report in this eity, to-day, that a whig Senator proposes to introduce a resolution de- claring the cabinet condemned, and recommending its discharge.

The Judge then proceeded to state bis opinion on a nonsuit. The Court said that it was a question for him to de- cide, whether the patents of 1686 and 1715 were void or not, or whether either one was void or not. It had been contended that they were void, because issued Te Thompson I’ testived for my father at Hemp- stead, Joseph ©, Ashley recalled—(The witness examined the corresponds exaetly with the ‘fac simile, if it is not the same called, to examine the press— ress which is in court; I recog. eT saw it was in Division street, at Thompson's residence; next on Long Island, at Mr. Bennet's; next at my father’s place, and next at the Tombs; I do not know how it came to be sent up to ress.)

H. Thompson's Cure for Erysipelas and other Cutaneous Diseases of the Skin;” the barrel contained the bottle, some bundles of glass, some type, and that press; the barrel was unpacked in the evening at about half-past 7; the contents of the bar- rel were left down by the side of the barrel; the bottle with the label was taken into the house for my father to see; the barrel was a flour barrel anoldone. Q.— It was the one I to the objection to their regularity, the Court said that itis to be presumed that all preliminary forms were complied with, and that they were regular, and that the testimony in this cave did not overthrow that pre- sumption: 1d he also thought that the acts of the co- lonial legislature, in 1691, would cure such defects, if there were any. The Court thought that the most difficult point in this case was, whether the said patents were yoid on the ground that the government was deceived; and said that the patents must be sustained. The patent fulty. They may discover that some one of these clauses may authorize a very singular and im- portant construction, For instance: While the British government agree to relinquish their right to the possessions in the Mosquito country, Mr. Clayton, by a certain construction, binds our go- vernment to give up all the rights of annexing Cuba, St. Domingo, or Canada, or acquiring any more territory by a war with Mexico.
