I'o 6be Editor of He Banner.

 SIR:-We have just passed, in the House by majority of l9 yotes,' the "River and Harbar bll,' copy of which I have in. closed to you. There are many provision. in the bill which did not receive my sane lion in committee of the whole, and which voted against

 It contains an appropriation of S2iO.00O for the Mississippi, Missouri, and Arkansas rivers, and for Red River the sum of S80.0O0 Viewing the importance of these appropria- lions to Arkansas, and the whole valley ol the Mississippi, gave the bill my support. and hope my vote will meet the appreciation of my constituents.

 l made an effort to apply portion of the Red river appropriation, S25,000, to the i'm Pfoyement of the Washita, While and Black rivers; it failed, however considered then. as do now, that the appropriation of ESQ., O00 was more than could be used the next year, and, therefore, no injury could result from the change proposed.

 ] send Yon, also, an extra containing the late English news. Sir Robert Peel has car rled through the House of Commons his re- peal of the corn-laws, by majority of 96 votes. That looks well.

 In haste, yours,
