The entire finan cial system is in almost inextricable confusion Tbe Treasury is exhausted, and those in power cannot agree on any mode by which it be replenished. tTbey cannot borrow money, having given away the only security they had to offer, and yet the Secretary of (he Navy the Secretary of War, and the Postmaster General, arv-stnnUously recommending measures that will increase the public expenditures bait a score of millions, and add tht sum to tne amout of the national bankruptcy 1 hey have repealed the Independent treasu ry, but can agree on no substitute.

They promised the country relief, and they have inflicted only additional distress; they promised reform; and have done only what will require to be-reformed; they promised economy, and they have given away millions, borrowed millions, and increased the public expen ditures many millions more.

In short, their inconsistencies and are so grossly absurd, that we're it hot for their injuri ous consequences to the prosperity and uappi- of the people, they would excite nothing but laughter. Every thing is in confusion dobody ca'rj aq-ticipate the future action of the Government, as it bears on the various interests of 'the country; and consequently all the opperations-of commerce, all the business of human life, founded on tbe solid basis of existing things, is at a dead stand: or, as Mr. Cost Johnson wittily said of the Maryland whigs, "as stiff and torpid i 7 I JJ usauaiieiui uueii nam i.iuct. oubii ia tui final result of the "Whiz triumph such the practical interpretation Of Mr. Webster's.

The ruthless attacks of Mr. Adams, made on every possible occasion, have at length indu-jdMr. -Wise to make a statement of his- agency are truly glad he can so far exculpate himself and see now nothing to blame him for but the fully of consenting to act as a necortd, bound by written instructions whicn deprived him of all He thus allowed himself to be i a tame ana neipiess insiruiutriu iai i mg uui aauarrel, tnej ana resun vhich shocked the moral sense of the whole cormnu-, nity.

Our Washington Correspondent, atter giving an account of the explanation of Mr Wise, and stating that when the latter made his appeal to Messrs. Clay and Crittenden to confirm the truth of what he 'said, those gentlemen were found missing from the seats they had just occupied in the House, proceeds to make the following remarks in further explanation of the merits of this much talked of affair. In conversation, Mr. Wise has stated that the challenge was written by Mr. H.

Clay himself, and that had the principals and their two seconds been alone on the ground, the affair would have been amicably adjusted without a shot being fired. Many circumstances have transpired since (he event, which go far to prove that the death of Cilley was -deliberately determined and that it was nothing less than a murder, premeditated in cold blood, for political purposes, aria that rts instigator was Henry Clay: In addition lo what Mr. Wise says, as to his writing tne challenge, and having the management of the affair, it is known that when a rumor was circulated of difficulties -existing between Graves and Cilley which would be likely to terminate in a duel, a member of Congiess hastened to Mr. Clay, not being aware of his having any connection with it, and begged his interference to prevent its going any further. Mr.

Clay replied with an oath "that it was a Kentucky quarrel, and should be gone through with, should Kentuckians have to wade knee deep in blood to effect it." Tbe quarrel was fastened upon Cilley by one of the best rifle shotsin Kentucky, Graves having been repeatedly selected at the brag shot of his. neighborhood. Ciller on the contrarV was but little ac quainted with the rifle, and thci veapon that was piacea Ul Ilia limiuauii wiw uuu "a1" and Inefficient that many good judges Rave expressed opinion, thai Graves would not have been injured had he been hit. Added to this wasCilley't imperfect vision, which rendered the use ol spectacles necessary to enable him to see his opponent. These circumstances will enable vour readert to decide with what jltopi i- oi 1 have designated the deato of Cilley as a cold-blooded, deliberate and" premeditated mur- der.

One evening during the- winter of as Booth, the celebrated tragedian, was walking up Pennsy Ivanian Avenue, inthe city of Washington-, he accosted' an old friend from the west whom he had net seen for many ye.irs. r.

After rautualJexpressionsV surprise and these men walked arm-in arm to Brown's Hotel, where both bad taken lodgings, In the whole country, perhaps, there could not be found two others more pass ionately fond of excitement, more remarkable in their habit, or more noted for their eccentricities. Retiring-to a private room, they sat down to recount the story of their past lives and as they industri ously circulated the bottle, many aloud shout echoed through that hall, and startled the watchmen in the street, as they went their silent rounds. As the night wore on their ex citement increased, until at the dote of a thril-J ling story relating to his strange career, bis companion exclaimed "Now, Booth, let's have a speech't'o liberty -one of those apostro'phies to Old Roman freedom with which you startle audiences 1" Had Booth been inclined to reluie, helcrie that his friend, when the mood was on him, would not be denied any request, however ab surd or difficult the performance. But the tragedian had himself entered into the spirit of his companion, and, nothing loath, he rehearsed with a magic power many of those electric passages in defence of liberty with which the English drama abounds. His friend, whose' memory, as well as habits, partook of the Indian character, caught up the words, and with equal force, clearness and accuracy, went through each speech in regular succession.

Thus they proceeded for a time, and then again sat down upon the floor of that chamber to renew; their potations and the story of their personal adventures. Booth drank and listened, whilst the other told of his own elevation in his native State, of his disgust at civic honors, of ins noaie in ine aisiani ioi est, oi me uncontrolled freedom of the red men, of their stoic 'fortitude and matchless Warmed by the recollection of those thrilling scenes, he sprang at last to his feet, and, in the tone of one amid the battle's din, fighting against fearful odds, exclaimed Now. Booth, once more for liberty The tragedian dared not disobey. He ran through, with all his usual energy, the tale of Mexican thraldom, of the Spanish conquest oi that land, tbe dangers incurred by the invading at my their commander's exhortation before the battle, and the stubborn biavery of the na tive chiefs'. Before him stood at that lone hour, listening with an intensity of thought and feeling which shone through his eyrs, lightened o'er his face, strained every muscle, anc star ted the sweat in great drops from his lofty brow, one who 'all the spirit of aCortea and amhition of a Pizarrc.

Qui. tliniif ht tin tnnlr reoeated tne worus jusi uttered by Booth with the mostei iticalprecision of tone and manner. The scene was one of no small moment, it may be, to a nation's history. As he became excited in the recitation, his spirit seemed Io take fire and with an air so strange, so deter mined, so frightful, that it seemed the voice of one inspired, he exclaimed at the close oi i masterly extemporaneous rhapsody, "Yes yes! I am" made to revel yet in the halls of the Montezumas." Reader, Booth's companion on that night is how President of Texas the hero of San Ja cinto. And who can say that the words utter ed bv him in that hour of excitement are des tined never to be fulfilled.

Sam Houston, if ever "coming events cast their shadows before," will yet revel in the halls of jhe Monte zuma s. The above is a description of a scene which Actually occurred, and which recent events have called up with great distinctness.
