Holdon. Don’t. It's us—Pierce and Forney,” said a voice. | “ It's us,” said voice No. 2. I at once opened the door, let the parties in, and fired up a spermaceti with a lucifer. ‘“ What the deuce is out now 7” “Oh! Sam,” said the President, “ we have saved —it’s no use trying any more.” And he took a seat. “It’s precisely and exactly so,” said Forney. Tell Sam what it is,”’ he continued. “Sam,” said the President, ‘I'll come down, as the coon said to Captain Scott. Don’t fire any more. Will you save me, Forney and the coun- try” The President has spoke it out. Are you willing to save us and our beloved country?” asked Forney. “Upon my word, Mr. President, the hour is mid- night; this visit is unexpected; but wait until I get on my pants, and then I can talk to you freely. Shirt-tail conversations with Presidents ain’t agree- able to my feelings.” “Certainly; put on the unmentionables,” said | the President.” f “Don’t mention ’em,” said Forney. 1 Tlighted another candle, dressed myself, took a } look at my visiters, to sec if they were unusually winey, and then observed, “Now, Mr. President, let me know what I can do more for you?” | “One would think you had done quite enough, | Sam,” said the President. | “Quite tnough,” said Forney. “J'll do anything for you, Mr. President,” was my dignified reply to what I regarded as a slight Piercy | sarcasm. | “Sam, you must go away; you can save me and the administration; Forney and me are perfectly | agreed about it. I want you to leave on important business for the government, and Forney has con- | sented that you shall go on a foreign mission.” “That's the talk,” said Forney. “To France?” I asked. “Oh no; that place is kept in reserve for Mr ‘ennett, whenever we can coax that old crab, Marcy, into Ws nomination.” {Just 80; >"~. President,” said Forney. “When do you want me to go?” I asked. Well, Sam, we is in a fix. Nebraska is all smashed and gone to the (na Scratch. The Black Warrior and Cuba matters have fizetod, and we didn’t get Cutting shot. The peat and isilroad land scheme for plunder are laid high on the sholf in Congress, and our Gadsden treaty has completea our present eee of miserable failures. The Cabinet is disorganized, and only Forney and myself are aunit. Marcy is jealous of Cushing, and Caleb despises Marcy; Jeff Davis don’t care a damn for either nor me, and now, Sam, you must go away to Mexico. You can tell Santa Anna just how Iam uated; and when you leave Mexico, you can go to Cuba, and have a talk with Pezuela. Then you may come back here; and meanwhile I won't’ move peg until you have looked up a settlement in Mex co and Cuba,” observed the President, while tears of | anxiety were rolling down his cheek. “ The President has expressed my ideas as well as I could have done them myself,” said Forney, using his pocket handkerchief freely. I cried, too—I couldn't help it—to see these poor fellows in such a fix. What could I do? Tagreed to go. ‘“ But about my instructions ?” said I. “Oh, I'll write ‘em—no Mr. Ward this time, Sam; honor bright,” said the President. “ Honor bright, always,” said the faithful Forney. “ And when am I to start? “ To-night, if said the President. “ Exactly, to- , chimed in Forney. “Oh, no, Mr. President, I must drop a note to Mr. Bennett; I can’t leave without writing a line.” “ Well, then, make it short,” said the President. “ Very short,” said Forney. “Tam agreed,” said I, “ And when am I to finger the outfit 7” “Tllarrange that, with my instractions, to-morrow afternoon,” said the President. “ To-morrow afternoon, as the President says,” said Forney. | “ But there is another little job Twant you to do, at the same time,” said the President. “Yes,” said Forney, with a deep sigh, and thrast- | ing his two hands to the very bottom of his pocket— | “another very important little job.” | “What is that /” said I,as 1 was brushing up my hair. “Did you ever hear of the famous Morganand the anti-Masons ?” said the President. | “Yes,” said Forney,‘‘did you ever hear of Morgan, | who was abducted, or disappeared entirely, one | tine evening? Thurlow Weed, of New York, knows | all about that business, and how to shave off a man’s whiskers, too.” Cae “T guess [have heard of that coon,” said I. “T hadan uncle, old Lemuel Green, who knew a man who kissed a woman who lived at Oak Orchard creek, and who made the lather to_shave Mor- an.” “Well, said the President, ‘when you go off to Mexico,*I want you to invite old Tom Benton and John Wheeler, of New York, to go with you.” “Oh, yes! oh, yes!” said Forney, his knees knocking together ; “you must invite Benton and Wheeler to go with you, by ail means. “T don't want you exactly to carry them off as Mor, was,” said the President. “Not exactly,” said Forney ; ‘ but as near as pos- sible, though.” “And whot shall I do with these valuable articles?” | | | aid the said J. “Drop them anywhere by the wayside. President. “Yes,” said Forney; ‘drop them anywhere—any Yole—any place; for God’s sake, drop them any- where, just as you cross any by creek or so. “Why so?” asked I, as I looked out of the window and surveyed the stars and the weather. “Because,” said the President, in a deep whisper, * they are going to impeach aa Forney, and kick up the very devil with our folks.” “Yes,” said Forney; ‘they are going to ma motion to impeach poor me before the House. “Yon don't say so!” said I. ae “That hard fellow, Wheeler, has got all the evi- cence in his breeches pocket, and Tom Benton is go- ing to fire off the gun.” “Oh, yes,” said Forney; “Benton is to fire off the | gun. “Then you are gone coon: said I, “if Benton is | * said the President. | * said Forney.

From the Washington Sentinel, April 15. Within the last few days the Senate of the United States Jas ratified certain Indian treaties, negotiated during the past summer and fall. The first of these treaties is with the Camanche, Kiowa and Apache tribes, who inhabit the territory immediately south of the Arkansas river. By its stipulations perpet wal peace; friendship and amity are guaranteed to each of said tribes and to the people of the United States. The right of the United States to make roads and to establish nilitary posts, and of the President to preseribe suitable rules and regulations for the protection of persons and property of said tribes, is admitted and recognized. The indians agree to make restitution and satisfaction for injuries done to the people of the United States liwfully residing in or travelling through the Indian territory, and not to molest but to facilitate their safe transit. To abstain from all warlike or predatory incursions into the Mexican pe inces, and to restore captives hereafter taken, an may be committed by their people upon citizens of the United States or the republic of Mexico. In consideration of these stipulations the United States agree to distri- bute to the Indians, goods, merchandise, provisions, or agricultural implements, such as the President may deem best for their welfare, to the value of $18,000, and to pro- tect them from aggression from the people of the United tater. sa ibes violate y of its terms, or fail in any of their the United States may withhold a part or the whole of the annuities promised. until proper satisfaction be made, or the offending parties be deliy- ered up to justice, The second treaty was made with the Cow Crock band of Umpqua Indians, of Oregon Territory. ‘These Indians cede to the United States all their lands in said Territory reserving the right of temporary occupancy of a certain portion thereof, until their permanent place of residence shall be designated by the President. The Indians a ree to give safe conduct to all persons passing through their reserve, and protection to the persons and property of such as the government may send to reside amongst them. That offences committed by or against the In- ai ians, shall be punishable only under the laws of the Unitcd States, and that mutual restoration of stolen pro- perty shall be made ax far as practicable. The United States agree to expend, on or before the 1st of October, 1864, for the benefit of the Indians, the sum of $1,00°, and annyally thereafter, for the period of twenty years, the sum of $550, in such articles of cloth- ing, Se, as the government may deem most conducive to the ‘ort and happiness, and ‘to erect two dwell sat a cost not exceeding $200 each, and to fence in a field of at least five acres, and furnish seed for ‘The third is that made with the Rogue River Indians of Oregon. These Indians likewise cede to the United States the lands owne! by them, reserving to then designated portion upon which to reside until a perm nent home is set apart for them. This t mil: to thatof the Umpquas, as respects p a tranvitu and resident agents, and the trial and punishment of offences under the laws of the United States. The United s agree to pay to the Indians the sum of $60,000, ich ‘is to bo retained to pay for 4 destroyed in the recent war, and a commission to be appointed by the ted States; $5,000 to be expended on property of to be awarded by President of the U ! or before the Ist October, 1854, in the purchase of agri- and the residue | cultural implements, clothing, &e., ($40,000) to be paid in sixteen equal instalments of $2,500 each, in clothing, farming utensils, stock, &c., as may be most conducive to their interests. “The gpreram also agree to erect three dwellings for thé three principal chiefs, at a cost not exceeding $500 each, and after the Indians shall have been permanently located, to pay the further sum of $15,000 in five annual instalments, com- mencing after the expiration of the said sixteen instal- ments. The Senate has wisely amended cach of these troaties (and on which account we apprehend it may be con. sidered necessary to obtain the assent of the Indians) so that if it shall hereafter be considered proper policy to establish farms among, and for the benefit of the indi- ans, it shall be discretionary with the United States to chayge the annuities provided for, or any part thereof, intoa fund for that purpose. The distinguishing characteristics of those treaties is the fact that no money annuities are expressly guaran- teed. it is a well known fact among all who profess any knowledge of the Indian character, that he hay no proper appreciation of the value of money—that he is regard- less of the future, and that when mone is easily induced by the heartless and designing to part with it'for ardent spirits, or the merest gewgaws, and in a few days is left as destitute, if not more so, than be- fore. By these treaties the moneys of the Indians will be laid out by the government upon the most advantageous terms for articles of real comfort and necessit, as will promote the substantial and permanent good of the tribes, and the corrupting and pernicious influence of selfish and unprinciples traders and speculators upon their credulity and passions be thus withdrawn. (From the Washington Sentinel, April 19 We understand that the Senate has ratified, without amendment, the treaties recently negotiated in this city by Col. Manypenny, the Commissioner of Indian Affaira, with the Omabas, and the confederate tribes of Ottop and Missouri Indians, who inhabit the northern por- tion of the Territory of Nebraska. By the terms of ihese treaties, the Indixm-ribea, par- ties thereto, cede ani relinquish to the United States all their lands, only reserving a place for their future home, to be selected by the President of the Unitedstates, and to which they agree to remove as soon as the necessary provisions are made for fulfilling the treaty stipulations, as they can arrange their affairs, &c. The Indians relin- quish all claims ¢or money or other things under former treaties, ex alances of appropriations for them now in the Treasury; and likewise relinquish all claima heretofore set up by them to any land on the east side of the Missouri rive! ideration of these cessions and stipy tes agree to pay Ottoes and Missourias—$20,000 annually, for three years from the Ist of January, 1855; 313,000 per annum for the next ten 5 per annum, for the next fifteen years: and r annum, for the next twelve years. To the Omaha ons, the per annum for three years from Ist of de $30,909 per annum for the next ten years; $20,000 per annum for the next fifteen years; and $10,000 per annum for the next twelve years All of which sums are to be pail to said (rides, ‘or ex- pended for their use and benedt under the direction of the Pres time, wl at proportion of the annual payments, if any, | shall be paid in money, and what proportion shall be ex pended for their moral improvement, education, and other beneficial objects which he mayteom calculated to advance them in. civilization, for buildings, opening farms, purchasing stocks, agricultural implements, cloth- ing, provisions, &e., &e. ‘oenable the tribes to settle their affairs and to re- move to their new homes, (which they are to do without further expense to the United Stutcs,) the Ottoos and Missourias aro to receive the further sum of $20,090, and the Omabas $41,000, to be likewise paid aud expended in such a manner as the President may approve. The President is authorized from time to time, at his ion, to have the country set apart for the future nee of the Indians, surveyed and subdivided into for the exclusive oceupancy of individuals or fami- lies, as they may advance in civilization, &e. The United States are to erect for each of the tribes a grist and saw: mill, and pcb a miller; also to erect a blacksmith shop, and furnish tools and an experienced smith; like- wise a farmer, for the period of ten years, to instruct the Indians in agriculture. The Indians bind themselves to commit no deproda- tions upon the property of citizens of the United States, and to restore or make compensation out of their an- nurties for any that may be stolens They also agree not to war upon any other tribe of Indians, exceptin self- defence, but to submit all their differences to the govern- | ment of the United States, and abide by its decision. They alsoagree that any Indian or Indians who may in- troduce into their country or use intoxicating liquors shail have his or their annuity withheld for such time as the Prosident may determine. ‘And farther, that all necessary roads, highways and railroads, which may be constructed as the country im | proves, and the lines of which run through their lands shall have a right of way, &e., a just compensation being made therefor. These treaties wilt, we presume, be publicly proclaimed, and they will exhibit the enlightened, an? humane, and protecting policy which the government intends to pur- sue in regard to those interesting and original proprietors of the coil. They will also bear ample testimony, were such needed, to the justice and benevolence which char- acterize the present’ able and elficient Commissioner of Indian Affairs, Domestic Miscellany.

The following is the answer of the Recorder to 2 com- municeiion from the present Board of Councilmen in relation to testimony taken before him respecting the alleged corruption of the late Common Council:— To THE BoARD OF COUNCILMEN Ov THE Crry OF New Yor«:— Trespectfully acknowledge the receipt of two resolu- tons passed by you on the 10th insi.; one of them, in effect, requesting me to inform you what disposition I Gesiga to make of the testimony tai:en by me in relstion to certain abuses supposed to have had existence under official sanction; the other, in effect, directing me to fur- nish to you the names of counsel employed in the im tigation earried on under my supervision, and alsv amount of money paid, if any, for such services, and by whom or by what authority said counsel were employed and said moneys paid. ‘These resolutions, Ipresume, have reference to the in vestigation made before me in eomsequence of the re- quest of a former Grand Jury of this county, connected with their ; entation to the Court of General Sessions, of alleged o\c.al corruption and malversation on the part of various } lie officers, the full investigation of which t: | they were prevented from accomplishing, from cavs:s which they mention, They re. vested, in open court, and desired, by instruc: tions ‘to \e District Attorney, that the investigation should he coutinued before me, and the District Attor- . ney’s letter direoted my attentien to their request. | Tundertook the task; and the District Attorney, and also Ogden Hoffman and James R. Whiting, Esqs., as 4. soclate counsel, employed by authority of the Governor of the State, attended before me. The investigation was commenced on or about March 18, 1853, and thereafter | continued from time to time, as my other duties, and the difficulties and impediments incident to the proceed- ings, would allow. |. The examination, of necessity, was extensive and pro tracted, from the nature of the charges, the variety of the circumstances, the number and position of the per- sons, and the number and importance of the subjects which ii comprehended. It therefore consumed an amount of labor, care and time more than ordinary, and became very lengthy. My action in the proceedings being that of a magis trate, my design in the disposition ‘of the testimony could only be, and it ean yet ouly be, such as is conforma: ble in suc! case to my duty as designated by law. Where the preliminary proof establishes probable cause that an offence has been committed, the person accused is brought before me, and the furtherexamination is then conduct | ed as preseribed by the Revised Statutes; and where on | such examination and consideration the ‘proof is found | sufficient he is held to answer, and the papers are deliver. | ed to the Clerk of the Sessions for appropriate action by the District Attorney andGrand Jury. On this oceasion, when requisite, such pf the testimony as was necessary was so disposed of, After the investigation, as far asit has been had, was covcluded, the testimony and papers, on the request of the Governor, were submitted to him. He now has the fame under consideration, for such, ifany action thereon, on bis part, as may be iawful and necessary. My design in the further disposition of the testimony taken before me must depend upon such further develope- ments, by additional proof, and such further lawful ap- Piications to me, as shall be presentot. Thave not considered myself justified in making known these preliminazy examinations further than so far as | lawfully drawn from me. Indeed, Tdo not deem ita just | exercise of power, without good cause, for magistrates to publish, or allow to be published, prematurely, such ex- | aminations. They are ez parte, and their publication, in | most cases, may tend to produce unjust and irremediable injury. \ Mf the person charged or reflected ee by them is in- | they 5 nocent, the publication ipflicts upon bim an unjust de- gradation of reputation and an unjust afliction; if guiliy, it isa sure notice to him to go away where process cannot reach him. How far the cases involved in this investigation, or any of them, present good cause for the Executive of this State to take any action therein, must be for the Gover- nor to determine. The names of the counsel employed in the investigation T have mentioned, and as I have stated, they were em. ployed by the authority of the Governor of the State. I do not know what, if any, money has been paid to them for their services, and for this information must refer you to the appropriate department. From a sense of courtesy, justly di py. I give you regard, the above information. A’ proper however, for the office which I hold must excuse me for respectfully stating that I cannot admit the right of the Board to direct myself or any other judicial magistrate to furnish such information as is desired by the resolutions. I submit this communication, with great respect, F. R, TILLOU, Recorder of the city of New York. April 17, 1854. The Steamer Delaware—Thritling Scene=One Man Drowned. {Correspondence of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.) : SteamER DELAWARE, April 13, 1854. The following is an account of our trip from New York:—At 7:55 A.M. on the 18th, started to sea from Sandy Hook, after laying there during the last gale. The wind is now north, blowing fresh, and a tremendous sea heaving from the eastward; at 11 A. M. mace a ship on shore about four miles to’ the sopthward of Squan Beach, which proved to be the Underwriter, of New York, with about six hundred passengers on board; ship head off shore, with all sail set, wind NNW., and heaving overboard cargo to lighten; ship working. Capt C. 0. Clark rounded his boat, so as to lay head to the sea. Capt. C. B. Sanford, proprietor, being on board was going to render them all the assistance in his power to get the ship off; lowered the small boat himself. Mate Johnson +nd three wheelsmen preceeded to the wreck: got near enough to heave them a line, so as to got the hawser of | the ship; got the line from the ship to the steamer, anil was heuing in the line, and it parted, there being such a | strong southerly current. | At 2 o’¢lock P. M. we anchored, waiting for a smoot’ time to take passengers and endeavor to haut off the ship; sent a boat to her, aud got a small line, but thoy parted ut half past 8 P. M. Boat again went to the ship, and was capsized on the outer bar. Crew of the boat ere Capt. C. B. Sanford, proprietor; Jacob Johnson, mate: George Argue, Thomas Wilson, and Barney Leland, wheelsmen—there being on the shore at the'time the crew of the government boat, endeavoring to get a line | to the ship by means of the mortar—ship being over 600 | yards from the shore, and so many on deck that they were unable to shoot the ballon board for fear of killing | some of the passengers. As soon as the boat capsized, | the skilful men launched their boat, and in almost an | instant were in the midst of the tremendous seas picking | up the unfortunate crew. They were all saved but one, and that was Barney Leland, although in one minute more all would have perished. ‘They received all the attention that could be given by the crew who saved them. At 6.50 our boat rolled so heavy that Captain C. 0. Clark ordered the anchor hove up, and was obliged to lay off and on to make the steamer lay comfortable; wind light from the eastward, boiny now off shore; at half-past'three A.M. run N. | and made the ship lay by until balf-past six A. M. then received the four men that survived, by the surf boat belonging to the government. The crew who saved them were very skilful, and deserve great praise. ‘They were liberally rewarded. Captain C. B. Sanford, on his departure from the shore presented the erew with his splendid quarter-boat of the er Delaware. The names of the crew who saved them were James Love- land, John Loveland, Charles H. Stout, Charles Law- rence, Charle; Maxon, Peter Sutphant and Wm. Vannote, all of Point Pleasant, Ocean county, N..J We We have received files of Georgetown (emerara) pa- pers dated to the 234 of Mare In the Legislature Mr. Buie made a motion on the sub- ject of immigration, of which the following is the sub- stance:—That the planter shall contribute in fature half the outlay incurred in introducing labor, in the following proportion:—$60 for a Chinese under indenture for five ears, pazeble in yearly instalments of $12 for each; $30 loreach Caolie indentured for three years, also payable in yearly instalments of $10 each; and $15 for Portuguese | under three years indenture, payable in the like manner, by yearly instalments of $3 | “A letter of the Immigration Agent General stated that | there had been expended in paying bounty $33,495, and that it must be assumed that less than $90,000 could not well be computed for all the payments of bounty for the year 1854. The terms called for by Mr. Buie, with respect to imml- gration, showed that of the number of immigrants who had arrived in the colony between the 4th of March and Bist of December, 1853, the adults amounted to 2,836, ex- elusive of boys and girls; that the bounty paid by the colony on the whole number amounte! to $106,173 06, and the portion of bounty paid by the employers amount: ed to $20,447 60.

On reaching the spot, a email building on the corner of the alley of Secon street, used by Dr. M.S. Thomson as a stable, was dts- covered to be in flames, which soon spread to the adjoin- ing buildings, consuming Dr. Pyo's office. Dr. Roosevelt's a Baptist Church, in Hartford, will be de- | Mulberry street. One of the painful incidents connected with this part of the conflagration was the burning of a horse,.who, after being turned out of his stable, ran frantically backwards and forwards through the flames, until he dropped exhausted in the alley, and was there consumed. From Dr. Thomson’s corner the fire extend- ed down Mulberry street, destroying a two story house, occupied and owned by L. Munch asa bakery, and four one story tenements, occupied by John Masset, Bernard Walker, Charles Pacy, and Charles Mclanny. At this point we were in great hopes that the conflagration would have been stayed; but in deapite of good deal of energetic but desultory effort, it extended to the handsome building constructed by the Central Railroad Company for a branch bank, but lately purchased by the professors of the Potanic College. By great individual exertion combined with the more systematic efforts of Fire Com- pany No. 2, the two story brick building owned by Judge ‘owers, and occupiel by James Meara, was saved from the fiery element. Here the fire was stopped, but much injury was sustained by the owners and occupants of the adjacent buildings, from the sudden and violent removal of their furniture, &. The following is'a correct list of the sufferers by this fire, as far as we have been able to learn, with the amount of insurance held by each :-—Dr. M. & Thomson, loss $5,000, insurance $2,500; Miss Rawson, (house occupied by Dr. Roosevelt,) fully insured; Dr. A. Pye, loss $1,000, | no insurance; 1. Munch, loss probably $2,500, insurance | expired two weeks since; John Massett, insurance 3400 on goods, $400 on house, $200 on furniture; Bernard Walker, $400 on house; Wm. Gibson, owning two tene- ments, occupied by ©. Dacy aniC, Melanny, no insur- | ance. Mrs. J. P. Gavan, who occupied the up stairs of | Dr. Thomson's corner building, was also burnt out, for | the third time, we believe. Mr. Daniels, boot and shoe- | | maker, in the same building, also suffered some loss. Married, On Monday. April 17, at Greensboro’ Rev. . Hillyer, Caartes GErprye, of ¢ Axa H.
