GENERAL @AIAES—ANCICI- PATED DUEL, ETC SPECIAL COURPSPONDENCE OF THE NEW YORK HERALD, Wasiixaron, Jan 26,1862. Documents from the American Minister in Mexico, showing Gardiner's claim to be an ebsolute fraud, are in | the State Depurtment. The District Attorney will ask a i continuance or postponement of the case. Ile very properly refuses any other information; but I have reason to belleve that it is the intention of the govern- ment to get witneeses from Mexico, or else to put the cage aside by continued postponements, because the credit of the cabinet is involved. Mr. Slocum, the special | egent to Mexico, makes a favorable report, and the ad- | verse testimony isfrom Minister Letcher. My first re- port wastrue. it is an ugly job. The tremendous case of Mrs, General Gaines against | Reif and Chew, et al, came upin the Bupreme Court | this day. Messrs, Webster and Duncan, counsel for the defence, pleaded for s postponement for another year. Reverdy Johnson, and others, for plaintiff, will be heard on Wednesday. Messrs.

Why were Donelson and Armstiong designated? Is it designed to support their prees on the eve of the Presi- dential election? He could not believe it.

It is her poilioy to make the world | belfeve her more powerful physically than she is, rather than take the steps necessary to secure that power. Her Giplomaoy is aubterraneap—slippery, like a mnake——bur- rowing, like the mole. She never aliows herse to bo directly defended by the press.

Where uch a brave struggie bed been made for freedom, he urge that, abeve all others, Roman Catholics ought to be awong the firat to support his course, as they had most | felt the oppression ot Kuropean despotism.
