There are not in this country two more successful portrait painters than Messrs. Moise and Fowler, who have their studio in St. Charles, a few doors above Canal etreet.

i Storm Erewixg. A writer iii the Matagorda (Texas) Despatch, in unfolding the true policy of the Republic, urges the necessity of an immediate declaration of war against the United States. This course he thinksby compelling this Government to invade and conquer Texas, would secure annexation the drift and purpose'bf the lucubrations. The necessity of an immediate declaration of war against the United States ia insisted nnon prevent violent and belligerent passions havuur time to take possession of the minds and hearts 01 tne people 01 the respective countries. Without stopping to debate the positions of the writer must be confessed that the idea of declaring war, as a measure to preserve the good under standing and brotherly love of the parties en gaged in it, is one which challenges the consideration of the Society of Friends," who, it is to bs apprehended, have not been in the habit of regarding the fubject in any such Christian and charitable light.

We will not recapitulate the ferray of annoyances and injuries which, it is Contended, Texas could inflict upon this nation ere hostilities resorted to, lesj, their grim num bers should mp.ke our people afraid but it may be well enough to acquaint the country with the fact that some of our neighbors entertain the deliberate purpose of walking into her affections, through a breach made by cannon ball and catapult, that our folk may conform themselves to die issue ExrHATiCAU-T i IliRD Case Philosophy in Tatters.

Wright, arrived yesterday from Galveston, bringing ui dates to the 16th inst from that city-fQurteen. days later than our last We do not find much important news in our file. President Houston has issued his proclamation requiring the next session of CTongreas the ninth to convene in the town of Washington on the first Monday in December next. There seems to be much opposition to have the seat of Government at Austin. It was reported in Galveston on the 6th inst-, by a gentleman just from the West, that intel ligence had reached San Antonio that all North ern Mexico along the Rio Grande is now in a state of revolt against the Dictator.

The re port, as brought by a Mexican Slajor, who represents himself as having deserted from Gen. Wolfs arm', is, that Arista is now marching for the city of Mexico with an army of 17,000 men that he is already beyond the mountains, and that his numbers are daily and rapidly in creasing by fresh recruits from all the surround ing country. It is stated that the spirit of revolution is universal and overwhelming. The report appears to have obtained but little cre dence, and occasioned no great excitement. The citizens of Montgomery have given a public dinner to President Houston in the town of Huntsvillc, in compliment for his public services.

The Galveston News of the 9th inst. says "No tidings can be heard from the schooner Atlantic, bound to this port from New York. It is the general impression she is lost. She had on board several resident citizens of Texas who were returning from a visit to the North." The Hon. R.

D. Johnson was married to Miss Matilda Maffit, (a daughter, we believe, of the celebrated Methodist clergyman, J. N. Maffitt,) at Galveston, on the 6th inst. A few days ago, a house, with a kitchen and other tenements, were all removed on wheels at once to some distance in the prairie at Galveston, by a Mr.

Lewis. So gentle was the transition, that the family were attending to cooking dinner during the operation. It was a great novelty to the good people of the place. The Vindicator of the 2Cth ult. says -Four English and Gennan vessels left Bre men for Galveston several weeks since they have on board 250 families each, intended to settle in the colony of Col.

Fisher. One thousand families, therefore, will be on our frontier in less than t0 days, armed and eouinned for either the cultivation of the soil or the chastise ment of the foe. There were, we learn, at the time of the sailing of these four vessels, about 2000 more emigrants awaiting a passage. Ves sels have-since been chartered for their conveyance.

From die Planter," published at Columbia, we learn that cotton picking on the Brazos goes on well, and cotton begins to roll in. Consider able quantities of cotton have also arrived at Galveston. The editor of the Civilian has been presented with an excellent specimen of sugar, a part of a crop of 100 hogsheads, from the plantation of Mr. John Sweeney, on the San Barnard, in Brazoria, which is said to be superior in all respects to any sugar previously made in Texas.

Other plantations have also succeeded in pro ducing a good article those of Col. Caldwell and Judge Menifee are mentioned. The editor of the Galveston News whs in formed by some of the Mier prisoners lately released that their liberation was effected through the exertion and influence of Governor Shannon, the American Minister, and not by the dying request of the wife of Santa Anna, as had been supposed. IriT Advices somewhat later have been re ceived at New York from Rio Grande, but they are of very little moment. The war and blockade of Montevideo still continued.

From Malaga and Gibraltar. The schooner Isaac Franklin arrived at New York, on die lOdi in forty days from Malaga aud thirtv-four from Gibraltar. According to the Herald, the political state of Spain, as under Btood at Malaga, was quiet business improy fruit, and wines dear; freight was offering but slowly. A U. S.

At Milledgeville, on the evening of the day of the Presidential election, Mr. 1'homas K. Fuller, of Bibb county, was killed by Mr. Wm. Searcy, of Baldwin county.

The weapon used was a pistol; the deceased was shot stomach, and survived but a few moments after receiving the wound.

Since the termination of die Pre-sidental election the American Republican party have made a great accession of strength, if die numerous conversions of the political press to that faith be a sign of die times. In the North the subject has been taken up with quite as much spirit as in this latitude. Death of a Cherokee Legislator Tah-lah-see-nee, one of the members of the Cherokee National Council, died a few days since at his His was the fifth death that has occurred in that body within the last two months. Speaking of the Cherokee Nation, it may not be generally known that that tribe have a regular form of government, a written constitution, with executive, legislative and judicial departments, much after the model of the constitutions of several of the states of this Union. There is a weekly paper published at Tahlequah, the capital of the Nation, and if the internal polity of the State may be inferred from the merit and excellence of the prcs, the tribe is making rapid advances in civilization and intelligence.

CI TY INTELLIGENCE. Police Nevs. "Black spirits and white blue spirits aud grey" mingled in the grand tableaux which Recorder Baldwin's court presented yesterday. There were black men in the dock, for being in the State of Louisiana contrary to law and white men, for being in the state of intemperance contrary to orderr-Women were brought up for disturbing the peace. Sarah McLoughlin, who was in that way in which ladies wish to was found in that way in which ladies never thould be that is, armed with a pistol and dirk weapons, die very sight of which were enough to make the courage of a Bob Acres ooze out at hi9 fingers' end.

She had taken them, she said, from her butband. lest he should do mischief with them so she accounted for die possession of them. The Recorder said he had thought a woman's tongue wart the only concealed weapon 6he carried. He ordered the detention of Mrs. McLoughlin until further inquiries be made aa to why she made a walking arsenal of herself.

A Tourist in Trouble. Henry Percy was yesterday brought before Recorder Bs.ldwin, on the affidavit of George L. captain of die ship Taglioni, recpnUy from Havre, who charged him with swindling him out of several sums of money, amounting in all to over one hundred dollars. Percy is a youth not more than twenty, we should judge of easy elegance and fashionable appearance. He introduced himself for, as Power would have said, diffidence is no part of his system he introduced himself to Captain Rodgers at Havre, represented himself as the son of a rich Alabama planter, spoke of the large number of bales of cotton which his father sent annually to New Orleans, and of the hun dreds of "hands" on his plantation; he told how he himself kfdt run short of funds, remittances for him hwing gone to Bremen instead of Havre told him, in short, that he was hard up," and that if the captain would advance him the needful" and take him on board his ship to this city, he would pay him with interest on his arrival.

All of this the captain did but when he came here he found no reimbursements forthcoming. He informed the police of the facts, and had Mr. Percy aristocratic name! ar rested. Percy seems to think it a fair business transaction. He was becalmed in a foreign port, and thought it justifiable to raise die ind by whatever means proved most available.

The case was postponed for future examination.
