Liverpool Cotton Marxbt—Brown & Ship-
ley's Circular reporta Hint since the departure of
the Atlantic tho speculative oxciteraent continued
In tho Cotton market, and was on the increase
since Wednosdny.and sales of the week amounted
to 95,340 balsa, of which speculators took 83,000,
end exporters 3,500 bales. Trices wero again a
■bade higher, admitting of an advance of id. per
lb. on the quotations or Tuesday, except Mobile,
which remained at 72.
Tho reports from the manufacturing districts
are rather improved in tone, and the price of
goods at Manchester were gradually creeping up.
, Tills effect has been produced by tho continued
accounts received from ilia Amciicsn markets
relative to tho deficit in the supplies and the short
crop. This hsa rather lesseued the caution of
buyers for foreign markets.
BaxADSTOKps.—Indian Corn isagnin 6d. lower,
but rather mora doing in it to-day at this reduc.
Him, In oilier respects, tho Corn market U very
dull, and speculation quite suspended.
A rather better feeling exists in Flour, but no
actual advnm c can bo quoted. The same may
be said of Wheat.
In tho London Corn market, May 31, Millers
wero buying with caution, and Monday's prices
could not bo obtained for Wheat.
Flour wna inactive, but no lower.
Provisions.—A fair business doing in Beef, at
full prices. Pork was without much movement,
and prices In favor of buyers. There wss a good
inquiry for Irish Baron—Shoulders in good de
mand, but Ilnms neglected. There lied been
largo arrivals in Lard, with sales at 31 to 39s. for
fair quality. Prices receded duiiug tho week
from 1 to 2s.
Political News,
The new House of Parliament was occupied by
the Commons on Wednesday—since then, Lord
John Russel has obtained leave to re-introduce
' tho bill, which was rejected by tho Lords at the
last eession, to enable Baron Rothschild to lake
his seat for tho city of London.
An address to her Mnjesty, from Lord Ashley,
has been carried, asking that measures maybe
taken to stop all post office labor on the Sabbath
throughout the Kingdom. The address met with
approbation from the Cabinet. Profound silenco
is observed by the Ministers on all furcignaffairs.
Busy negotiations nro going on between tbe
French Cabinet and Downing street, (so says our
despatch.) It is rumored that Gen. Lafitte will
return to-morrow.
The Russian Ambassador has been evolved
from St. James, amt in the meantime public opin
ion in England and France seems to have sum-
ed up the controversy, deciding that there Is a
secret cause behind U|o alleged cause of dispute,
and that while it may be insisted on that Lafitte
was too hasty. Lord Palmerston, it is believed,
will, in tho cud, bo placed in a position beyond
doubt to show that his offensivo demonstrations
aroso in self-dcfonco.
i Tbe discussion of the Arehcr Court in (he Gra
ham case has been postponed until the 10th June
for purposes which are known to those familiar
with the affair.

April 27, in lot. 37 degrees, ion. 49 degrees, with
boats, bulwurks and houso stoved, lust of sails,
and as was supposed, provisions.
Ths Cuban Patriots.—In addition to the Intel*
ligcnco respecting tlio “patriots,” furnished by
tho interesting lottor in another column from
Ocala, wo learn from tho Florida Republican, that
eight or ten had arrived at Jacksonville en routo
for their homes in tho States. Over 300 had
reached Tampa from Key Wost, in two small
vessels and several smacks—among them Gen.
Gbant, one of Lorsq's staff. After remaining a
few days in Tampa, the men left in parties on
foot—some proceeding towards Tallahassee and
others towards Jacksonville. Thoy nro represent
ed to bo in a very destitute condition, having lost
all except tho meagre clothing upon their backs,
and many being oven without shoes.

Dublin, A/uu 21.—Flour aud Wheat are ex
tremely dull. Prices since Tuesday are uuchang-
«d. There i« only a retail demand for Indian

Publio Buildings and Grounds, in rolatiou to the
permanent locution of the Scot of Government of
California. Tho Committee report favorably to

In accordance with another proposition ofGen-
era! Vallejo, tbe Committee further report in fa
vor of submitting this offer to tbo acceptanco of
tbo people, at the next general election. Tho
port eays:.
“ Your committee cannot dwell with too much
wnrmth upon the magnificent proposition contain-
<*1 .in the memorial ofGen. Vallejo. They breathe
tin oughoutlho spirit of an enlarged mind and a
sincere public benefactor,for which ho deserves tho
thanks or Ids countrymen and tho admiration of
tlie world. Such u proposition looks more like
tho legacy of a mighty emperor to his people,
than tho freo dona tion of a private planter to a
great State.'’
There wore several offers from other quarters,
but uotio of equal magnitude. Stevenson-and
Barker offer to erocl buildings at a coast or$100,-

Most Steam.”—The best reason we can give
in favor of any models of American steamships, is
their success. Wo admitted that, in the earlier
attempts in steamship-building, tho Now Yorkers
failed in machinery, and do not say they yet ex
cel tho Scotch builders | but in hullt wo took ex
ception to tho condemnatory article of tho G'tor*
gian and wo maintain it. The ifimann and
Washington are tho only ones iu which perfect
success has not attended tho experiment, so far
ss tho vessel* go. The Cherokee was tested and
was triumphant in ss severe a gale as ever visited
our coast. The Tennessee, Panama, Oregon, and
California went round Cape Horn, quite ss far
southward in boisterous latitudes as the Cutuml
era go northward. The other ships we named
have been tested in all seasons and weathers.—
The United States was only laid up for want of
profilablo employment, and for this reason was
■old not to the Austrian Government, but to the
Prussian. She had no fat mail contract to sus
tain her, like the Collins, Cunard and Bremen
steamers. Nor did sho ever meet any accident to
her machinery. Sho once put into Southampton
as a matter of extreme caution, to have her bed-
plato examined aud overhauled; but otherwise
never wss detaiued an hour by her machinery.—
Site crossed the Atlantic twice successfully and
rapidly, and her commander, Hackstait, staid
by her till she was sold. She had no top-hamper
taken off, except so far as to convert her from a
packet iu to a war steamer; and when sho wss
going to Liverpool to be delivered to her purchaS'
era, she was run upon Nantucket Shoals and much
injured in hull and machinery. If sho had not
been very perfect, sho would never havo gono
further. Tho President is supposed to havo becu
lost there, and it was such an accident as builders
could not bo responsible for, aud such aa tho Cam-
brio, Columbia, Britannia and other Cunarders
have inet with. The Cunarders themselves havo
sometimes had one engine disabled, and have
boasted of making their voyages with one engine
or one wheel.
Wecan easily imnginothal tho steamboat build
ers of Pittsburg might fail in an ocean strainer, but
the New Yorkers have had greater scope for prac
tice. Mr. Webb followed the trade of his father,and
finished his profession by practice and observation
in European dock-yards. Wo presume Brown
k Bell, Wm. II. Brown, Bishop & Simonson,
and others in New-York, are not behind bim.
We havo never before heard tho hulls of the Now
York steamships pronounced inferior to tho Eng
lish—and so far, we know that noue have proved
inadequate to tho service required. We have
seen them and the Cunarders side by side in Nffw
York, and we certainly could not with truth say
the comparison on that score was in favor of the
British ship-carpcntcr. As tho Georgian says,
tha Atlantic and Pacific havo not had sufficient
tlmo or trial to decide on their superiority. Wu
are willing to lcavo time to decide it. The Geor
gia and Ohio have been running forsomc nuntlis
and their time between Havana and New-York
shows wbat they can do, and their mack incry has
never detained them a minute. We allude to this
subject because wo do not believe the knowing
one of tho Georgian had ever e*.amincd as we
havo, the Ncw-Yurk steamers on the stocks, out
of tho water; and wo know Hint ho did injuslico
to their models und to their builders. As to their
machinery, if his remarks bad been dated twelve
months a go, they might do—but for hulls, for
beauty of model, c'.cganco of build, graco and
strength, commend us to tho New-York built
steamships.
This is only a small difference of opinion, and
"it’s of no consequence,” ns Toots says, but we
think the New Yorkers should have credit for
what they havo really well done. It is strange,
too, that tbo Isabel should be commended as "the
qu'.cn of our southern waters,” and the Cherokee,
r.n universal favorite, should be "damned with
faint praise”—especially ns tho latter has proved
herself in severe storms, and on mora thnn one
occasion lias beaten a Cunarder going iu and
coming out from New-York. Our cotemporary
should mete out equal justice to all, a duty which
isinseparahleTrnmthe position which he occupies.
The Sarawak, Captain Tatnall, arrived at
Norfolk the 11th inst., having left Havana the 6th.
Capt. Tatnall proceeded immediately to Wash
ington City, as bearer of despatches from Cuba,
and to report tho result of his cruise in tho Gulf.
Tbe reader will bo surprised at tbe great discrep
ancy between ids accounts and the numberless
rumors which havo been set afloat in overy di
rection. Indeed, telegraphic reports and tbe state
ments of Washington letter-writers have become
so unreliable, that nn honest matt does not know,
now-n-days, whether to bolievo any thing ho
in print.
In the first place, the American Consul bns not
been arrested by the Cuban authorities. In the
second, neither tho Saranac nor any other Ameri
can vessel has bcon placed at the disposal of the
Caplaiu General, for the purpose of capturing the
invaders, or for any other purpose. In the third
placo, Commander Randolph has never bcon up
on the evo of engaging in a navsl battle with
Spanish inen-of-wnr, in order to release the cap
tured invaders. On the contrary, though adrnit-
ance to the prisoners had been denied, and Capt-
Tatnall had informed the Captain General that
ho would take the Georgia and Susan Loud, if lie
fell in witli them, satisfactory assurances bad
been given on both sides that nothing would be
done to inlet rupt tho friendly relations of tho two
countries. Upon this point wc beg leave to quote
tho Washington Republic, which gives tbe official
account of tho matter:
"Leaving the Albany and Germantown at Key
Went, CapU.tnTatn.tt relumed in tin Serr.rmc
to Ii.van.on tho 2ath nit., h.ylngon board Judgo
Marvin, of tho Federal Court at Key We.t, and

facts favorable to tho prisoners.

Editorial Correspomlcnee.
B WNTSVlLMi, (Ala.) JUNE 10,1850.
I doubt whether the fine scenery on the Ten
nessee from Chattanooga to a point known as
Kelly’s Ferry, some thirty miles below, has ever
boon accurately described. If it has, tho de
scriptions must have all gono down the Western
rivers to New-Orleans. It is docidedly the finest
scenery that I have aeon In the United 8tates,and
it shall be my task to glvo the roadere of the Re
publican soma idea of it in a few words. A small
part only of (hat on Ihe North River may be com
pared with it, and that with certainly groat pio-
priety.
Two or throe miles or that at Harper’s Ferry so
much lauded by Mr. JsrrESsoN resembles it,
though it is on a smaller scale. Tako the pall-
sadcs on tho North River—incroaso their height
and tho width of margin between their baeea nud
tho shore, cap thorn with far reaching and sweet-
ly wooded summits, betwoen which mountain
gorges frequently extend back into tho country,
and then break up their straight aud stiff con
tinuity into a thousand graceful and waving
lines, and you produco tho scenery on the Ten
nessee. Tako it ss it is, and clothe ttio flanks or
tho mountains with vineyards, sprinklo here and
there time-worn towers, tho ruins of grim robber
castles of the feudal age, smiling villas, and
cheerful towns, and you hare tho classic Rhine—
tho natural superiority, iu my opinion remaining
with tho Tennessee, though I am almost afraid to
say so. 1 am inclined to think that the heights on
tho Tennessee exceed thoso on tho Rhine, while the
latter river cannot certainly show any thing com
parable to tho Lookout mouutain as seen from
many points. With tho exception of here and
there a cottage, the river rolls its majestic and
abounding current through ono unbroken scene
of solitude and cnchantinont. Every slope capable
of sustaining vogetation, ami every summit is
clothed with a most luxuriant growth of forest
trees, and the whole region nt this season smiles
in tho richest verdure. You see too tho traces of
many a pretty .cascade which tumbles over the
rocks during tho period of rains. More charm
ing situations, for pleasant villas, is not easy to
And, and tho fancy leap* forward twenty-flvo
years to that time when these pleasant retreats
will be occupied with the habitations of men, and
when portions of these stately forests will glvo
place to the cultivation of tho vino. This is a
part of that region opened up by our liucs of
communication.
Tho rapid* and the " obstruction* ” to which 1
have al uded to in another letter, commence at a
point some fifteen miles below Chnltanooga, the
" awclk ” being first in order. Here the shores ap
proach each other, so that tho width of the stream
is not one-third ns wido as at ChnttanoogB. The
consequence is, a greatly increased velocity of the
current, which at this atugo of tho river, may bo
6* miles an hour, perhaps inoro, while the ordi
nary current it not nroro than 2j or 3 miles.—
From (ho suck to tho whirlpool is 4 miles. Be
tween these two points tho river makes one con
tinuous and rather regular curve of considerably
radius, so that it describes three quarters of a cir
cle. AbouKwcnly fivo miles down wopneseda
pretty island called " Snvnnnah Island.” After
s course of somo thirty-five or forty miles, tho
landings and settlements are more fryquent, tho
belts of cultivated alluvial land extend further
bark, but ever and nnon the heigl.lt, now become
less elevated, approach cloao to ihe river and hem
it in. It may suffice to ndd that the whole is at
tractive, and that Gunter’s landing and other
places on tho shores, arc only landings. Indeed,
this whole region is bui just starting into its new
or second stago of existence.
Coining down through tho rapids, we hnd a
young Alabamian on board, who was somewhat
verdant. Ho had his horses, and to allnppcnr-
ancu, a plenty of money with him. Having pass
ed these triTQrs before, lie was very anxious tlmt
we should place ourselves at the bow of the steam
cr, so as to sco what " tremendous waves ” were
going to dash around us. We found thoso wave*
to be rather a failure, and ns our new friend had
been quite pertinacious iu his advice, one of our
company remaikod upon tho circumstance, add
ing, "if wo hadyoudowu there a fow miles out
side of Tybce, wo would show you somo waves,
such as you never dreamed of.” The Alabamian
concluded Ihnt if there wero any wnves higher
than those in Ihe rapids, ho should certainly come
down to sco them. Asa mercantile friend, who
is on a tour hero, has given sonic aecount of tho
actual condition of tho commerce of tho Tennes
see, I need not add any tiling to what ho lias said.
Yours, J. L. L.

tho Spnnish authorities, in company with Judge
Marvin, tho latter' unofficially informed them that
tho affidavits mndo in his court hnd established
tho fact, that tho mon referred to had refused to
accompany tho expedition to Cardenas, and hnd,
therefore, committed noaggrcssfonagainstCuba.
The authorities replied, that they wero them
selves somewhat of that opinion, and that their
trentment of tho prisoners corresponded with that
belief—that tho Inttor wore well housed and taken
care of, and that after certain
which the laws rendered
rtain preliminary forms,
... .. 1 imperative, and which
applied equally to Spaniards, tho United States
Consul and tnoir friends could havo access to
thorn.
"Under these circumstances, and, above all, as
tho Spnnish authorities iu Cuba havo been prompt
ly notified by tho United States Consul, acting
under instructions from tho State Department,
that tbo President intends to claim that tho
American prisoners taken at Con toy have not
been ‘guilty of any crime for which, by the laws
of civilized nations, they should suffer death,'and
if one of them bo unjustly punished *it may cost
tho two countries n sanguinary war,’ all appro-
bouillons ns to tho safety of tho then misguided
men may now bo confidently dismissed.”
The Executions at Caboenas.—We Jesrn
from tho National Intelligencer, the names of the
following persons who wero shot at Matanzas,
having boon concerned in tho invasion of Lopez

sident of Cincinnati;——McGasoaos, residence

ARGUS OFFICE, >
Ocala, E. F.» June b, 1850. $
Gentlemen:—Since tho disastrous result of tho
expedition to Cuba, our village has been consider
ably enlivened by the advent of many of the "red
skirl” hoys who nre finding their way homo via
Tampa, Ocala, Palatka, Jacksonville, Savannah,
kc. from Key-West. Tiie detachments that have
passed through, and are new here, compriso
mostly citizens of Tennessee and Kunluqky. As
far ns their conduct has been noticed in travelling
across our country, they have conducted them
■elves in a manner truly praiseworthy. Theao
people nro entirely without means, and though
their invasion of the soil of a friendly, and more
particularly a neighboring power, is not counto-
nanccd by the mass of our citizens, yet, under
tho circumstances of their deception, they have
been kindly treated, and voluntary contributions
havo been presented them in aid of their return
home. May the good people of Georgin, as they
pass through their State, do likewise, and im
press it upon these gentlemen never to interfere
with a foreign people unless their country calls;
never lo intermeddle with people who nre not
able, or have not the energy and spirit to rectify
their own wrongs; and never undertake a matter
of this importance unless they can go through
with it. ” Re sure you’re right, then go ahead.”
Tills should bo remembered.
The volunteers here say that they havo been de
ceived—that they were employed to go to Cali
fornia, and never knew a word of this expedition
until after they had left Ncw-Oricana, and arms
were distributed to them. They any that Gen’l
Lopez did not half perform tbo spirit of his talk.
They, after consenting to accompany him, found
every citizen Spaniard at Cardenas opposed to
them, when it was asserted that Lopez’s name
would strike every oue with terror, and bring
hundred* to his standard.
Tho long diy weather has much injured the
corn; and if wo do not get rain soon, we won’t
make half crops. The tobacco looks well. We
think an article will be produced this year pos
sessing qualities that havo never before been np-
preached in any part of the world. We hnve not
planted near so much as wo havo formerly; that
which is in the ground looks as usual.
Our citizens are looking with a great deal of
anxiety nt tho movements of the Indians. Tho
trickery of Billy Bowlegs has greatly exasperated
tho people, and it seems that they are determined
to expel them at nil hazards.
Our candidate for Congress, Mr. Cabell, is
now fairly before tho people for re-election. Mr.
Cabell has well merited the approbation of his
constituents, and they ore determined, so long as
ho proves the "faithful servant,” so long will
their confidence in him remain unabated.
We are very sanguine in securing our Legisla
ture. The importance of this election must rally
ovory Whig in the State, and each man should
feel that his individual vote may sccuro tho elec
tion of his U. S. Senator and District Judges. oVor ’
May tho Whig* of our State, high in honor and
in principle, use all high minded means, and
with energy, to perform their duly faithfully at
tho polls. Truly, G. M. G.
Congressional,
In the Senate on tho lUh, after some unimport
ant morning (joaineas, Mr. CUv called for tho or
dersoflhe day. *
Tho adjustment bill was tnkon up, and Mr.
CAsaspokoin reply to Mr. Benton's speech of
the dny previous.
Ho argued Uuil ths union or the measures in
one bill strengthened each measure, and that
Caltfor nls suffered no delay uor detriment from It.
Ho argued against the Wttmot proviso and
against tho Executive plan. He rcvlowed and re- *
plied to tho arlielo in the Republic which explains
and vindicates the President’s views, in an official
form. Ho showed that it was tho duty of Con-
grass to provide governments for Now Mexico
■nd Utah, and that, If this was not doue, agitation
of tho slavery question would bo continued. Ho
advocated tho offer to Texas, and poiuted out tho
danger that would result from leaving the ques
tion unsettled.
Mr. Dayton followed, and ndvocatcd tho Presi
dent’s plan of bringing in New Mexico as a Slate.
The Senate then adjourned.
Jlouss rf Representative.
The Houso met at eloven o’clock, and immedi
ately resumed tho discussion of tho California
question.
Mr. Howabp, of Texas, opened the debate, and
wss followed by Mr. McDowell, of Va.
Before Mr. McD. had proceeded a half hour in
his able speech, tho hour (1 o’clock) for termina
ting tho debate had arrived.
There was an almost unanimous cry that Mr.
McDowbll be permitted to continue his remark*.
The Chair said it required the universal con
tent to permit tbo gentleman Iroin Virginia to
proceed.
Mr. Conors objected, and ho could not proceed.
Mr. Jones, of Term., said that there wore sov
oral important amendment* which had been or
dered, but were not yet printed; he therefore
moved that tho Committee rise, with Ihe view to
nu adjournment till to-morrow, si which time tho
printing will havo been executed.
Tho question was taken by tellers and decided
in tho negntiyc—ayes 86, noes 107.
Tho Cliuir stated that Mr. Doty's bill to admit
California, was in order, and that Iheamcndincnt
of tho gentleman from Mo., (Mr. Green,) to tho
1st section of tho bill was first m order.
Mr. Grbbne’samendment adopting tho Mis
souri Compromise lino of 36 deg. 30 min. North,
for the Southern boundary of California, runniug
through to tho Pacific Otican, was then read..
Ho supported it ir« a few remarks, showing that
the State would Ibcn bo immensely large.
Mr. Ssldon then offered nn amendment pro
viding tlmt i'.io territory Smith of 30 deg. 30 min.
should bo r.ulijcct to settlement by those holding
•lave property. He supported tho enactment of
the Missouri Comptoniiso liue in some few re-
tnnrks.
Mr. Stanton, of Ky., moved an amendment,
providing that the States which inny bo formed
South of 36 deg. 30 min. shnll ho admitted into
the Union whether they adopted slavery consti
tution* or not.
Mr. Mbads, Mr. McWtLLta.snd Mr. Venable
continued the discussion.
Mr. Asiimun moved to amend the amendment
of Mr. Green so ns to confiuo the Missouri
Compromise lino to tho State of California alono.
After this proposition was mndc, there were
several propositions for amendments, upon which
to hnngspeeches under the fivo minutes rule;
■Iso two or three appeals from tho decision of the
Chair, for and against those amendments. After
they were decided, tho Coinmilteo rose, and tho
House, at 3] o'clock, adjourned till next dny.
[The House seems to be inburing under a grant
degree of restlessness and tlmt kiud of sullen ex
citement which is tho natural precursor of a great
storm.]
In tho Sensto on tho 12th inst., tho adjustment
bill was taken up—the question being on the
motion to postpone it till March 4th, 1851.
Mr. Dayton continued, and concluded Ids
speech ngninst tho bill. He was particularly op
posed to the proposition to Texas; to tho fugi
tive slave act; and to tho establishment of territo
rial governments. Ho resisted tho conglumcrn-
-tfoii of tho bills, and declared that there wns’ no
compromise in them. There wus nothing of any
vnluo in the measure outside of tho President’s
plan.
Mr. Clay argued the question on the motion lo
postpone. At a proper time ho would answer tho
Bcnator from New Jersey.
Air. Davis, of Mississippi, commented on somo
of the Senator’s statements.
Mr. Foote said the Senator’s efforts would bo
entitled to n high reward from tho oilier end of
the avenni*. if there wns any thing like a sense of
merit in that qunrtcr,
Mr. Dayton had not spoken with any view to
reward. Ho seldom troubled this body inucli.
He wns surprised nt tho intimation of tbe Sena
tor from Miss.
Mr. Foote rejoined. If the Senator’s speech
wns not nttended with good effects elsowherc,
then human nntuio was insensible to whnt was
due to zealous ndvoenry.
Air. Benton said lie wished to nllow nil amend
ments tu lie offered. If nny wished tooffer amend
ments now, ho would withdraw his motion to
postpone.
Air. Clay said ho hnd requested the Senntor
from Mu , not to move the postponement. It
would lend to the loss of threo days. He hoped
that the Scnn’.ur would now suffer tbo Simula to
voioon the motion to postpone.
Air. Yulee offered an amendment, fixing tho
northern boundary IlneolTcxns.
Air. Rusk raid ho wns obliged to tho Senntor
frmn New Jersey, (Air. Dayton,) fur Ids ussertion
of tho titlo to the United States tu the territory of
New Aloxico cast of tlio Rio Grande. Ho would
at a propor time undertake to show that tho United
Stnlcs hnd nut a title to n foot of it.
The debate Vas continued by Mr. Shields and
Mr. Houston.
Air. Shields offered an ntnendment in relntion
to tho Texas boundnry, which was rejected—yea*
24, nnys 20.
AH tho amendments offered in relation to tho
Tcxns boundary were then rejected.
Mr. Turnsy moved to strike out the 29lh sec
tion of the hill, making a preposition tu pay for
the territory of Texas.
Air. Foote opposed the moiiou.
Air. Hale moved nu adjournment at four
o’clock, P. M. Agreed to.
In the House nothing wns done except to wran
gle over the California bill. Any number of
amendments were offered and voted upon. South
ern members seem determined to prevent a vole
on tho bill itself.
PnOSPECTSOrTHB Co.MIMlOMISE Bill.—Ht Gbee-
ly, of tho Now York Tribune, who is lilmsclf op
posed to the passage of tho Compromise bill now
before the Senate, gives, in a letter dated Wash
ington, Juno 9th, tho following as tho prominent
grounds why tho friends of ths moasuro count
upon its succcsi:
1. It is a very general impression that all ths
other business of the session lies behind (his ad
justment. Land reform, cheap postage, tariff
amendment, ko. have each and all their anient
advocates, yet it is generally believed that there
is little hups for any of tlieso if tha adjustment of
the Slavery agitation doc* not succeed. Indeed,
many believe that it will he difficult to pass even
the appropriation bills. This belief is strongly
calculated to help tho Compromise.
2. Tito incongruity of the band which rallies
against the Compromise and of ths reasons where-
by they justify their opposition. First, a North
ern Free Boiler will riao and denounco tho ro-m-
sura ns ono which surrenders tho Territarks to
Slavory and gives everything to tiie South; next
a Southern Propagandist will assail it whh equal
vehemence as giving tho North all tho Territories
with half of Texas and taxing theSc.ilh several
Atillions to buy Slave Territory from Texas and
transform it Into Frco Soil. Th'iS Butler and
Hull, Chnse and Clemens, Baldwin and Soule,
unilo in denouncing tho tnessi.ro upon grounds
as inconsistent as possible. There is inconsis
tency, also, on tho side of ths champions of the
bill, but it is by no meano so striking os uu the
other.
3. Several of tho leading opponents of the hill
are notoriously nctinir as their constituents would
not Imvo them. F»v instance, Virginia’s two
Senators, Alnson nr.d Hunter, havo strongly op
posed the bill and are still counted on Hint side,
while tho pcoplr of that Sialo arc clearly tho other
way. 1 have been somewhat among them during
tho Inst three days, and I feel very sure Hint nine-
teen of every twenty Whigs, aud a decided ma
jority of tbe Loco Focus, are in favor of the Com
promise.
4. 1 bear to day Hint Gen. Shields, whom 1 have
act d-.wn as nnli-Ctimpnimiae, will vote lor the
bill; Hint Air. Norris of New Hnmpsliiro is most
IH.eiy to do do so; mid Hint one or two more of

Interestino Relic.—Mr. E. B. Thompson, of
New-York city, and now a compositor in tho
office of Hie Courier, has in his possession a very
intcicsting historical idle,—a small embroidered
cambric pocket handkerchief, which wns used by
Charles 1. upon tho scaffold, and isjstainod with
his blood. It esma originally from John Fen
wicke, who was Mojor of Cavalry In Cromwell’s
army and in flint capacity wns required to -be
present nt tho execution of Hie unhappy monarch.
Thu relic passed from his family to Hint of Jacob
Lyell, whoso wlla emigrated to New Jersey
near the close of the 17Hi century, and was coil
nccted with tho Fsnwickc family. Sho gavo it
to her daughters wiio kept it with tho greatest
care, and at their death it passed into nuothcr
branch of the family, and has finally cotno in pos<
session of Mr. Thompson. Its nullicncity, says
the Courier, seems to bo clearly traced and proved
beyond doubt. Tho handkerchief is of small
size, and tbo figure of tho Scottish thistlo is cm'
bruidored around Ilia edges. Upon uuo corner is
a very small figure of a crown. It is thickly
stained with daik spots, some of which areas
Inrgo as a dollar—tiie others smaller. The lincu
is considerably discolored by time. It aceins to
imvo been ironed but not washed.

Enormous Lump or Gold.—Wo ycslordsy hnd
tlio pleasure of examining a large number of rich
specimens of California gold. Among them was
ono which weighed fifty pounds. It is composed
mostly of pure gold, apparently having, while in
a liquid state, run among some quarts rocks,
wns found near tho Alarnposn, about three feet
below tho surfneo of Ihe enrth. $6,000 was offer
cd for it on the spot where it was found, hut it is
supposed to be worth about $6,000, although tho
actual value cannot bo ascertained until it Is
ground up and assayed. Tlio big lump is now
tho properly of Mr. II. B. Williams, who arrived
in this city yesterday on board tlio steamship
Ohio. Tho sight of such a valuabio "chunk” is
good for noro eyes.—N. O. Pie.

is evidently a convert to the "Alauifcst Destiny 1
doctrines of the American school.
Ala. Clay’s Hsalth.—Every ono rejoices nt
tbe recovery of Mr. Clay from his recent alarm
ing attack of illness. Any indisposition, nt his
time of life, naturally creates anxiety, but in (Ufa
instance the attack hnd none of the peculiarities
Hint indicates tho failure of the system by age
and infirmities. Ho line recovered rapidly and
was not a day out of hla scat in tha Senate Cham

such as ho shows daily, can decline so suddenly.
Kentucky Tobacco Crop.—Tlio Louisville

An Oriental Embassy.—On thu 25th inst., his

Chief or Hie kingdom of Ncpnul, situated on the

sador extraordinary from tlio King of Ncpnul to
tlio Quucii of England. His suite consisted r f
twenty-four persons, and lie was charged with
letter from his King to (juccn Victoria, and with
presents, of Ncpaulcse manufacture*, wortli near
ly a quarter uf u million sterling. The travelling
expenses of the embassy lu England, were Inear-
ly 10,000 pounds sterling. They nro all Utidd<

They are continually washing;.fund of smoking,
aud of all urientnl habits of luxury.
AlAnvLANo Slaves.—A meeting of tlio slave,
holders of Queen Anno’s county was hold at Con
trcvillc a few days since, for the put pose of or
ganising a society to protect slave property, ou
account of tho numerous depredations that have
been made by tho abolitionists recently in tlmt
vicinity. Officers were elected, and n coustitu.
tion adopted, and mensurcs taken for immediate
ly commencing operations. The number ufslsvcs
weekly lust from tho border counties of tills Stato
is estimated tu bo equal to $10,000 iu vnluo, nuc
the most efficient organization will l>e necessary
to prevunt its increase. That they receive mon
ey, arms, and directions from the abolitiouisls,
there is no manner of doubt; and, after thoy
cross the lino, places of concealment nre provided
for thorn, with nil the "aid and comfort” necessa
ry to enable them to eludo pursuit. Tho rcccnl
stampede of sixteen slnves belonging to Colons
Peabce, from Baltimore county, and their nrrest
near Shrewsbury, Pennsylvania, proved this bu-
yund a doubt. A rewnrd of $2,000 discovered
their hidiug-plsca in ono of the out houses of a
farmer in tlio vicinity. They were carried home
without waiting for legal process.—Balt. Cor. of
fVuihington Union.
Important to Ambricars.—- An American,
writingfrum Paris to tho Newark Advertiser, says:
" To Americans about to visit England for tho
first time, it may lie of some importance to re
mark, that no books, not English, which thoy
may tako with them ,for their oton personal use, nro
exempt from the enormous duty which she im
poses; and all English works, re-printed in any
“flier country, ir brought within the reach of her
Custom Houso, without reserve, nre taken and
destroyed. It would have been important to rno,
had I had this information before I left America.
But thinking that a few books for private use
would bo allowed to pass ns freely as personal
garments, I brought a number with me, many
of them reprints. Having, howover, learned in
time what their fate would bo, if they were
brought on shore, I avoided their confiscation, or
rather their destruction, by giving them in
charge of ono of the officara of tuo vessel, to bavo
the mretaroed to Amorica.”
Senator Dawson slayino IIale.—Tho corres
pondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin thus speaks
of the late passage nt arms between Mr. Dawson,
of this State, and IIale, tho abolition Sonator:
Mr. Halo succeeded to the floor, fo reply to Mr.
Dawson for his attnek upon himself on Friday
last; and in a speech, remarkable for ils bitterness,
m the Georgia Senator with Interest.
1 ,, I’ Dawson had used stratagem. He had
avoided a direct assault, and like a skilful gene-
ral, masked his batteries until tlio enemy exposed
his flunk, when he charged with a full brondsldo,
and swept the field before him. Ho wailed until
Mr. Hale exhausted his topic, when ho coolly un
rolled a package of collated documents, and com
menced a review of Mr. II.’s political conduct
from tho year 1833, down to tho present period.
It was an incontrovertible history, and ono tlmt
presented so many extraordinary nnd variable
features, that Mr. II. winced under Hie attack
and left tho field, even divested of his spurs. I
never listened to a scathing to replete with stub-
born, yot opposite facts, nor to a speech Hint toid
with more effeefupou a listening and deeply In-
teres ,ed audience. '
Fbom Texas.—By Iho arrival yesterday, from
Galveston, of Hiosteamcr Galveston,Capt. Place,
we have papers from that city to Hie 7lli inst.
Tlio sugar and corn crop, on Oyster Creek nnd
the Lower Brazos, are said to bo very promising
in spito of the cold and wet weather.
Cotton is quite backward, but with very favor-
able weather may produce a medium yield. Th
planter* iu that district aro generally abatidoninj
cotton for sugar.
The Brcnlmm Star says that never since 1036
havo the prospects for tlio crops been so gloomy
