CongreM to that effect; that Congress had no right to interfere with slavery in the .States, and the slave trade between the States, and that it was Inexpedient to abolish sltfvefy in - this distfiet, &c. Mr. Be'xtox insisted upoh motions to except each proposition con tained in Mr. Ct. vv's rekafktfe'ns. It was urged by Mr. Webster that these motions would lead to a fortnight’s discussion, aru! ttftuld einhfarl'ass the ac tion of the Senate and delay the admission of Califor nia. lie stated that, after the reference, it was in ’tended by Mr. Douglas to call up the'CaliToftiia bill, and he and the Senator from Mississippi (Mr. Fftofn) would vote fit? it. The disc us.-ion of that measure would go on, while the Committee were maturing their plan of adjustment. Measures would, after the ‘Committee reported, he acted upon separately or con jointly, as might be deemed expedient. Mr. Butler protested again."t this course. If California vt’Sstci be taken up as a separate measure, ‘there was no useih tte-irg a Corimiittee. *ln the course of the debate .ffr.

This is Mr. Ci.av’s birth-day. It is to be celebra ted by the Clay clubs in various parts of die country. There are great numbers bf persons, in the whig ranks, who look ujxiu Mr. C'lai as their candidate- for the I’leaidcney in 1 S.Vi, with or without a nomination by ! ’ a Whig Convention. ■ldnAT.'bF the I’arkmav Mi.kder.—The New York Mirror draw s—and, in our opinion, very correctly—the followingtenyral reflections” front tin* I'arkinan tragedy: Tin- indirect cause of the murder was the i pecuniary extravagance of the murderer—the ; habit of living beyond his income, and the du- ! ijpliciiy which followed in the desperate struggle: to - keep up appearances.’’ The direct cause was thi-'i-xrletiiig demand—the persevering and insulting ililh df liis creditor. There is no doubt hut the gait tit tuIU £riih collec/nr limited, and ; haunted lijs poor debtor, until he drove him | to. desperation : until, to the sensitive imagina- i lion of his victim, he ceased to be a man, am! j ‘became a dunning spectre —an unappeasable and heart-piercing cry for money, as inexhor abie as death, and ns relentless ns the; grave. The fatal result of this goading system, should! leach creditors to lie ware how they harrass ! thy It debtors; snd it should teach poor men to beware : ho\v they place themselves in a po- j sition to. be oppressed by heartless miilionarics; j bind, finally, it should teach all men to beware J ‘of selling themselves to the devil on any terms Hi hatever. . “James K. l'aulding. who was Secretary of th e Navy under Mr. Van Huron's administration lias written a strong letter to the Tammany Hall Democratic Committee. It pronounces the Wilmot proviso vote a ‘‘declaration of war against the south —a contemplated violation of the constitution, and an invasion of the rights of every state in the Union, north, south,‘east and west.” Reproof of a Free 86ii Governor.—The House of Representatives of the State of lYim 'syfvrfnia have refused to order the printing of ‘file anti-slavery message of Gov.

This was the corres pondence which was sent into the Senate day before yesterday by the President.” A lawyer the other day went into one of our 1 arber-shops to procure a wig. In taking the dimensii ns of the lawyer’s head, the boy ex -1 claimed. “Why ! how long your head is, sir.” ‘‘‘Yes,” replied our worthy friend, “we lawyers ‘must have long heads.'’ The boy proceeded in his v icatiou, but at length exclaimed, “Lord, sir, your head is as thick as it is lung The laivva r mizzled.

We have Lien induced, in consequence of the benefits received tryn this medicine, to add our testimony in t.i vor of its extraordinary healing properties. We take great pleasure in stating, that we have frequently ijfs-d it Ourself and adminL-tered it to others during the past year, in cases of obstinate coughs, colds, soreness of the chest, fee., andaTwa'ys'wjh the r ni6stliappv rosuk. Wethvio fore cheerfully recommend to all aillicted with the above diseases, to ’i'KV the Hal.-am of Wild Cherry. The New York Evening Mirror ttys: “Wi-tarV Bal sam is still working wonders in curing the most de-per frtepulmonary diseases. We have not only witnc-.-cd ‘its ellcdt-s, licit haVe a‘great many certificates, which place theefficacy of this invaluable rifedfeino beyond all question. It was a custom among the early settlers of New England to drink freely of Wild Cherry tea in ea ses of colds and fevers. This tea was made by steeping the twigs and bark of the Wild Cherry tux-, and drank freely inoniing and evening. The old Puritan Fathers used to regard it as “the sovereigntist thing on earth” for all sorts of complaints ; and there can lie no doubt but the Balsam prepared by Dr Wistar is one of the very best articles for Consult .-prion that has yet been discov ered.” .......

FOR TIIE PAST THREE DAYS There has been very little activity in any de partment of trade since our report of Wednes day last. The Cotton market is not in a posi tion for extensive operations, as the agents of the Northern manufacturers have generally com pleted their purchases, and the hulk of the stock is held above the present limits of most Euro- \ pean drders. The letters by tF.e Europa will be due here to- j morrow or next day, and at the close of the j week the Hibernia’s accounts from Liverpool to the 6th instant, will be looked lor by telegraph, j After the Hibernia the departures of the Cunard j steamers will be weekly, and the Cambria was to leave Liverpool for New-York to-day. The weather uas rainy on Thursday, and though clear yesterday was quite cold lor the • season. The river remains at about 2 1-2 feet below high-water mark. Cotton.—Arrived since the 19th instant of Louisiana and Mis-sis.-it.-pi 2 138 bales, Tennes see and North Alabama 5288, Arkansas 1 179. Mobile 170, Florida 32; together 9107 bales, j Total receipts of the week 14,962 bales. Clear ed since the 9th instant for Liverpool 8942 bales, Havre 2081, Gotteuburg 1386. Barcelona 1158, Genoa 2369, New-York 698, Philadelphia 38: together 17.372 bales. Stock in presses and on ship-board not cleared on the 12th inst, 180,104 bales. ‘Otir last report closed upon an inactive mar ket, as but few buyers came forward, and these generally claimed a more considerable conces sion in prices, in view ot the unfavorable advi ces pCr'Europ.a, than holders were inclined to yield. Since then the market has continued in a very dull state, and under the same circum stances, as buyers lur the North appear to have nearly closed their operations, at least for the present, while the limits of most foreign orders are b-low the asking rates of holders. The ad vices from the North, too, received yesterday by telegraph, were not calculated to assist our mar ket, Sis‘they report a decline at New-York of 1-2 a cent per pound Cilice the arrival ot the Euro pa. Under all rite.se obstacles to activity, the business continues quite limited, amounting lor the past three days to barely 4900 bales—viz: f2oo bn Wednesday, 1300 on Thursday and 2400 yesterday—and making a total for the week of 8800 bales, the hulk of which lias been taken for Spain, France, fee. with some few parcels for England and the North. In the few transactions above noticed, and which have generally been in email lots, prices bale exhibit ed considerable im:gl:laray, and our quotations must b ‘ looked upon as in a great measure nom inal, though lectors generally are indisposed to submit to ariv marked decline. The receipts at this'part since September Ist, (exclusive of the arrivals from Mobile, Florida and Texas) are 712,674 bales, against 951,352 bales to same date last year; and the decrease in tiie receipts at all the ports, up to the latest date's, as compared with last year, is 531,261 bales. In the exports froth tile United States to foreign countries, as compared with the same dates last Year, there is a decrease of 418,116 bales to Great Britain, 6091 to France, and 93,- 9i7 bales to other foreign ports. Front the Advertiser Price.- Current, April 13 Review of the Mobile Co'.toa Market’. Our last report closed on a dull, quiet market, sales for the w eek being 6800 bales, at 7-8 cts. for middling. On Saturday the demand was fair, buyers looking tor some reduction in prices subsequent to the unfavorable advices received The previous dav from Liverpool, by telegraphic despatches; in this they were generally disap pointed, holders remained very firm, and the ve ry sipali stock offering tended t > strengthen their position, in ‘conSCijitence, the sales, reached only 800 bales, on sowewhat easier terms, but with *ut any quotable change. Monday was a dull, dragging dav : transactions were almost nomi nal, not exceeding 309 bales, at previous rates. Ull Tuesday rather more was done, some 1000 bales finding buyers— r the firmness of holders being unaltered. Wednesday was another qui et day, there was rather more disposition to sell, but no abatement in prices, and the sales were scarcely 100 biles. On Thursday the demand was again more active, hut without resulting in any large transactions—the sales bring only 890 bales, at very full prices. The demand on Fri day ’was quite general, sales were fully 2,500 calcs at very foil, Slid .in many cases, at rather better rates than previously paid, the market closing quite firmly at our quotations, which we slightly advance. The total sales of the week ar 500 bales, taken mostly tor France and Eng land, quite a small portion by our Northern buy ers. arid sprihe ‘local speculators. The. receipts of the week amount to 4,330 hales, and exports to 10.366. hales—leaving the stock on hand and on shipboard not cleared. 97,255 bales. Total receipts of the season up to date, 30 4,352 bales, against 476 569 bales same time last year. The Supply ol Cotton. To the Editor of the Liverpool Times : Sir : Tffe writer of your commercial article last week noticed the fact of the stock of cotton in America being 20.000 bate- more than la t year, and the stock in Liv erpool being 100.000 : more but he omitted to notice that the amount at sea last year was over 300.000 balds, wlifl't note the amount known to have cleared, not arrived, cannot exceed 80,000, hates if it reaches it.

April 9. 1850. 1G ts REUBEN RICH’S CENTRE VENT WATER WHEEL TO THE PUBLIC! A NOTICE appears in the “Columbus Enquirer,” of the 16th instant, purporting to be tin acceptance by W, H. Morris, of my Water Wlieel challenge—which if strictly .scru tinized wili bo found to be a most pitiable effort to delude the public into such an impres sion. A proffer is made to bet SSOO, ‘that the Morris Wheel will do more sawing and grind ing thaq mine, “the openings in each wheel being the same.” A principle contended for in my wheel—and one on which 1 stand prepared to demonstrate — is that its peculiar construc tion limits, the discharge of water* to .just one-half the measurement of the openings. Thus a wheel with openings measuring 224 inches dicharges but 112 Inches of water. On the other hand, the Morris Wheel, with similar openings, or 224 inches, would discharge full that, quantity., It follows, therefore, thatunder the‘test proposed by Morris, he would secure to his wheel, the use of just double the water employed by mine ; and the public will easily detect in the notice referred to, a measurable effort to delude them into belief that Morris ” ill bet on the supeiiority of Lis wheel over mine, both operating under like heads, audem jiloyit.g or discharging a like quantity of water. Another proposition is to determine the discharge, by measuring the gates ! Now it is plain,lf a given quantity of water only, can be vented by a wheel, (a proposition which I presume will be undisputed,) it would not be in creased by using a gate sufficient to pass half dozen times that tmantity — or were we indeed to remove the gate, and allow the wiicile steam to pass Wo the Scroll or trunk, get the dis charge of the wheel would not be increased. H cnee the fallacy of attempting a gate measurement, as proposed by Morris l -—and equally applicable is my former remark to such a proposition. It is a blind—palpably designed to misled the Public’ _. . If Morris realls entertains the faith with which he seems as solicitiotls to Inspire others — he will accept the following challenge—Embodying as it does terms even more favorable than any .heretofore proffered him. Limiting his wheel, to the quantity of watcr.required by mine under any named head, to per form any given quantity of work. 1 will bet him one thousand dollars that his wheel will not be able to do the work in the same time. Arid if he so desires—l will add the following viz: U ive hundred dollars, that thus arranged my wheel w ill do 25 per cent more in the same space ol time. Five hundred on o 0 per cent. more. Five hundred on 35 per cent. more. Five hundred on 40 per. cent. more. l ive hundred on 45 per cent. more. Five hundred on 50 percent, more and finally Five hundred, on doing three times as much and again, if this be not sulliciently tempting. I will couple with the foregoing. One hundred Dollars that with the two wheels geared to each other, my Wheel - , will reverse the action of his —and Five hun dred dollars more, that thus fettered my wheel will do more work than his unencumbered ! ! And to cap the climax, I hereby obligate and bind myself, to pfefnU him with five hundred dol lars, whenever he will lodge the money necessary In cover the above, in the hands of any unobjectiona ble party. The entire, trial to be made under the supervision of mutually agreed u pon Millwrights of known capacity and fairness. REfJBEN RICH, Per Agent. I’.
