Mr. Cook In scn.lin you tlic enclosed, which is reported exclusively for the Broome Republican, 1 take prido in saying that the character established ly my coinmunications from this place for Hie New York Evening Tost, will only make it necessary, in order to ensure due credit for its authenticity and accuracy, that I should subscribe myself, Truly vourv, JOHN SMITH, of Arkansas. PETE KXTUAOHDINAKYi MARTIN VAN TUTRKN'S PARTING SUPPER.

An entertainment of a novel and interesting character was given at the White House hy his Excellency, President Van on the evening of the Ud instant, and being the last for the season. It was not tin nrmcmally asa Iiil'Ii conipliinont to a few choice spirits and valued friends and partisans in this native state, who had followed him "through evil report," and with unflinching courage, during the who'c of Ills administration, and most ot wliom, w.in a devotion worthy of his couse, expected to "follow in his footsteps" in his anticipated retirement from office. Sonic of the heads of departments, and a few distinguished guests from other States were limvevor rocnt bit the company was very select, and the number quite limited. It is not our purpose to speak of the mignifi-cent style of the supper itself the clegaice of the furniture the decorations of the table the richness and splendor of the plate th." gold noons. A'" us the whole paraphernalia of the Palace had boon so minutely described in the published shoes of the lion.

Mr. Ogle, which had been extensively road but only to record the speeches, songs and sentiments with which this truly splendid entertainment which was indeed the "feast of reason, and the flow of soul" was interspersed. His Excellency the President, after the 19th course, and the uncorking of bottle No. the cloth being removed announced, as the order of the evening, that mValling upon Ins distinguished as ho proposed to do, in rotation, for speeches, songs or sentiments, tt would be expected I.

That no speech, song, toast or sentiment should exceed tivo He should himself, be added, sol th? example by singing a ditty of hisown, which he assured his worthy friends was cn'iruly extemporaneous.

FRIDAY IXC, F.

The Emperor had agreed to pay for the expenses incurred by the British in making war; other authorities state sterling as indemnity for the opium Eoizcd, and for the expenses of the war. The Emperor, cither himself or through his officers, has expressed pacific intentions to the and lie disavows the actions of bin commissioner Lin.

The Chops werecoiichid in very civil language, containing none of theoffensive epithets so freely applied to Europeans on former ocea nons. The Em eror had been kept in ignoiance of Lin's proceedings, I lit many of the Nobles of the Court had perfect information relative the Viceroy's conduct at Canton.

In referring Admiral Elliot to Canton forthc stttlem, nl of t'e inaitirs in diapute, the Emprrior said, through his interp-cler, that granting all which vou say to be true would be exceed-incly unjust to condemn Lin withnn' giving him a hearing; besides Lin's ic.iort is (pmo different from yours, I will send plenipotentiaries to Canton lo make proper implies and who afterwards will arrange with you there.

Without circumlocution, I reply thtu will not. What then is to tic done 1' coin the present aspect of allairs, pit jilt ed faith of the Government must be disregarded and sacrificed, or, there must be an extra Session ef What was matter of opinion, in December, in re ference to the policy of the men in power, may now bo considered history.

So far from endeavoring to prevent the public credit from being impaired, many of tbcin would rejoici in its destruction.

I ho tables of both houses aro loaded with petitions from claimants, or bills report for their relief. Thcso will be treated with a heartless in- (btrerenco. Some few may pass one branch of Congress but acting on a prc-conccrtcd plan, those which pass tho Senate will bo defeated in the House, vv hilo those wlne.li pass the House will, hi hke manner, fail in tho Senate. These movements arc all sys tematic. In this condition of public affairs Congress will ad journ.

Gen, Harrison on coining into power will find un empty treasury; a debt of 20,000,000 of dollars suffering public creditors I a revenue not equal to tho demand for the daily expenditures of the govern ment, and no waysand means proviled for the rc'icf of the country, or thoso who have equitable claims upon it. Tho Wings in Congress, for some weeks past, have frequently in their sociil intercourse, expressed their apprehensions tint the government would he disgraced, if thcpolicj of the dominant party vvas permitted to control the destinr of the nation for inree months alter tliey retired frrm power. So fro. qoent, of late, have these expressions of alarm be come, that wiiio of the most venerable and experienced statesmen iu the Whig patty, suggested an informal communication on the subject. In pursuance of this sjggestnn I bear, f'laf an in formal meeting of the Whig Senators was held last evening.

Alt in the eiy tr'iotc permitted vere present. 7 Vie situation of the Treasury, and the demands upon it, wilK the me-ins provided to meetthose demands, veieduhj considered. Tht result of their tleUbcrulLm iras, tint without an Kstra Session, the Government leould be disgraced. This, I understand, urs the very gentral impression of those in attendance. I now consider it reduced to a positive certainty that AN EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS WILL HELD, and that, probably, at an early day.

Such Legislatures as may be in session, and which by law, cannot elect the.r members of Congress before May, should forthwith provide for the contingency. Washington, Jan. 27. It appears to be generally admitted within thescfew days, that there will hi an extra session of Congress. Many of the friendsof General Harrison, who had licictofoic entertained doubis of lhe policv of such a measure, are now yiclemg them to the necessity of thecase.

hetlicr or lot they have received anyin-formation of the views jf the President elect on the subject, I am unable say. There may he reasons lor this change of opinun, Willi which I am not ac quainted, but as to the change itself, I can speak without hesitation. An old and discreet member of the. Housj, in a convcriation with me, expressed his conviction that the pcopc expect Congress to be called together during the Summer that, with an impres sion that serious evils oust in tho administration of Mr. Van Burcn, they lave elected General Harmon for the purpose of investigating the extent of thcso evils, and applying an immediate correction and that far from being opposed to tho early assembling of Congress, they expect it, and will not bs satisfied that the work of investigation sad correction 'all be post poned un'il the usual tuner the meeting of Congress.

Apart from lliess considerations, the condition of the Treasury will demand legislative action before the end of the Slimmer. There is such an evident disposition in the friendsof the lo cripple the resources on which General Harrison m.ist rely to carry on thsoperationsof thcgovcrnnent, that he will enter on the functions of Ins high and responsible station, fettered with embariassmetisfrom which there is no hope of his extrication, witlnut theaid of the rcpresen-scmatives of the people. Tin who constitute the majority nrenlieady cvulting it the anticipation of the difficulties against which hewdlhave to contend, and are the rapid Ucclin-of his popularity a re-sjlt to which they will oontibuie by all the moans within their power. For th- purpose of fortifying lrmsolfagainst the schemes ol he must adopt early and vigorous mcasiris, nnd he cannot act with efficiency without the cooperation of the other branches. Some persons arof the opinion that Congress will be called together a-, early as June.

Bui, unless the states which have rot elected representatives shall hold spcunl elecions, it is unlikely that tho session can take place unil the Anlumn about lhe month of September. McLim The following extract fron the special corres-pendent of the N. V. Ilerad, puts to rest the rumors in relation to tho tlschargo of this individual on bail, and gives us some additional facts in the case. LoocroBT, Jan.

23, 1911. The trial of Mcl.cod cannottake place until the Ith Monday in unless a special commission of Oyer nnd Terminer should issie, winch is not probable. His case will come befon the Grand Jury at the County Couit, to bo held earlvm IMiruarv; hut that Court can only indict him. 'lhe evidence' before tho Grand Jury is private1, of coursi, nnd not to be reported. It has lieenslnted, in sonupiinls, that he was to be tried immediately this inayliavc milcd some.

I have not been amo to obtau any information in relation to his history to bo dmended on. Thcrcis nothing peculiar in his situation in jail, except that he sleeps all day, and is up all mVA, probably expecting asiistanccfrom Canada, to enible him Vi escape. If lean find anyone whocangivcany of the information acked by you I will procure it lo le done. The statement that Brothetston, the cashier of the Suspcnson Bridge Rank had h-rome Mcl.eod's bail in S3.000, is also erroneous. McLcod was arrest, ad under a charge of murder, hich i not a bailable oflence.

The xcitmeiit this affair increases every day. Meetings are holding over nil the western (lis-trice, nnd if an attempt le made to I would not answer for lhe comequcnccs. It may be a hard case for McLcod, and the circumstances would undoubtedly furnish ground for a strong appeal to the clemency of the Eve. cutive, should ho bo convicted. But that the operation of our laws in a time of peace is to be sutpenJed at the arbitrary will of Great Britain, is a position tint cannot bo maintained for a moment.

The trial must and should take place, that wo may show both the subjects and the government of Ensland and all other countries that our lsws cannot be violated and our citizens murdered upon any such trivial pre-tenre. If the party that took possesion of the Caroline acted under orders in all the outrages of that fearful night, should have known better than to have obeyed such orders. If they did not know better it is time to teach them better by a wholesome example, in order to prevent a repetition of the experiment. From the Ro. Daily iilv.

We were prevented by our occupation from hearing all the evidence and the remarks of ilic counsel, but from what wo did hear it appears, that the defendant commenced vis-iling the plamtill in summer of 18.13, and manifesting much respect nnd attachment to h'-r, calling at her residence as often as once in lwo weeks at the commencement! his visits, and at last twice each week.

It also appeared thattbo plaintilTvvasstrongly attached to the defendant, nnd would often while in the company of her associates, speak of him as "her litlloman," whose curlv hair, "waved like the waves of the sea."

It was proved that he solemnly pledged himself to marry the plaintiff, nnd when he accompanied her to her parents at Castlcton, he gave them to understand that such was his intention.

CAPTURE OF A SLAVEH. The Commercial Advertiser has boon favored with the subjoined extract from a letter to a gentleman in this city, dated St. Croix, Dcc.UO.

"I beheld this morning, in company with bcvcr.al gentlemen, one of the most horrible siuhts my eyes ever encountered. An English brigof war, winch cruises in tho vicinity of Porto Ilico, while running from St. Thomas to this Hand, observed at a considerable distance a mall d.ity looking craft, which would not have boon sils-pected as a slaver but from the number of men Eecn upon her deck. After a short chase the brig came up to her, and from her appearance the commander of the brig was satisfied she was no slaver, but concluded tba' ifter having taken the trouble of giving her a chase, they might as well search her. On opening the hatches they found tho whole crammed vv ill.

This morning after breakfast we engaged a boat and went along-ido the slaver, a-id conversed some time with the Lieut, iu command: on the subject of his vocation.
