S5S3E of fee Southern Convention.
Nashville, Juno 8, 1850.
1. Resolved, That the Tcrrilorice of the United
Elates belong to the people of theeevcral States of
this Union aa their common property; that the
cititcna of the several States have equal rights to
migrate with their property to these Territories,
aniTare equally entitled to the protection of the
Federal Government in the enjoyment of that
property, so long as the Territories remain under
the cherge of that Government.
9. Resolved, That Congress has no power to ex
clude from the Territory of the United States any
property lawfully held in the8tates of the Unions
ana any acts which may be passed by Congress
to effect this result Is a plain violation uf tbs Con
stitution of the United Stales.
3 Resolved, That it is the duty of Congress to
provide proper governments for the Territories,
sines the spirit uf American Institutions forbids
tbs maintenance of military governmenta in time
ol peacet and aa all laws licretofore existing in
Territories once beonging to foreign powers,
which interfere with the full enjoyment of reli-
gion, the freedom of the prees, the triel by jury,
and all other rights of persons and property, as
B eared or reougtiixed in tha Constitution or the
nlted Slates, are necessarily void so soon as
such Territories become American Territories, It
Is tbe doty of the Federal Government to make
early provision for the enactment of those laws
which may be expedient and necreeary to swore
to tbe inhabitants of and emigrants to such Ter
ritories the full benefit uf tbe constitutional rights

TUESDAY MOKSIIU, J\!SU 11. MO.
4. Re solved, That to protect property existing
in tbs several State's of the Union, the people of
these States invested the Federal Government
with the powers of war and negotiation, and of
sustaining armies and navies, and prohibited to
Etata authorities the exercise of the Mine powers.
They made no discrimination in the protection to
be afforded, or the description of the property to
be defended; nor was it allowed to tlio Federal
Government to determine wbat should be held as
property. Whatever the Suites deal with as pro
perty, the Federal Government is bound to recog
nise and defend as such. Therefore, it is the
•ansa or this Convention, that all acts of the Fede
ral Government which tend to denationalise pro
perty of any drorription recognised in tbeCunali-
lotion and laws of the Stales, or that discriminate
In the degree and efficiency of the protwtion to
be afforded to it, or which weaken or destioy tbe
titla of any cltiarn upon American Territories,
are plain and palpable violations of tbs funda
mental law under which It exists.
6. Resolved, Thai the slavcbolding Elates can
not and will nut submit to the enactment by Con
gress uf any law imposing onerous conditions or
restraints upon the rights of masters to remove
with their property into the Territories of the
United Stales, or to any law making discrimina
tions in favor of tbe proprietors of other properly
against them.
6. Resolved, That it is the duty of the Federal
Government plainly to recoguize and firmly to
tnaiulain the equal rights of tbe citizens of the
several States In tbe Territories of the United
States, snd to repudiate tbe power to make n dis
crimination between the proprietors of different
species of property in Fecierai Legislation. The
fulfilment of this duly by the Federal Govern
ment, would greatly lend to restore the peace of
tbe country and to allay the exasperation and ex
citement which now exists between flic different
sectious of the Union. For it is the deliberate
opinlou of this Convention that the tolerance Con
gress has given to the notion that Federal au
thority might be employed incidentally and In
directly to subvert or weaken the institutions ex
ietlng to the States confessedly beyond Federal
jurisdiction and control, is a main cause of tha
discord which menaces the existence of the Union,
and which has well nigh destroyed the efficient
action of the Federal Government itself.
7. Resolved, That the performance of this duty
is required by the fundamental law of the Union.
Tbe equality of the people of the several States
compoMDg the Union cannot bo disturbed with
out disturtiing the frame of the American hull
lotions. This principle Is violated in ihedhnial
of the citisens of the slave-holding Elates ofpow-
er to enter into lira territories with the property
lawfully acquired in tbe 8tales. The warfare
against this right, is a war upon the Constitu
tion. Tbe defenders of this right, are defenders
of the Constitution. Those who deny or impair
its exercise, are unfaithful to the Constitution,
and if disunion follows the destruction of tbe
right, they are the disunionists.
I. Resolved, That the performance of its duties
upon the principle we declare, would enable Con
gress to remove the embarrassments in which the
country Is now involvod. Tbe varant territories
of the United 8tatc«, no longer regarded as prizes
for sections! rapacity and ambition, would be
gradually occupied by inhabitants drawn to them
by tbeb Interests and feelings. The institutions
fitted to tiism would be naturally applied by gov
ernments formed on American (dens and approv
ed by tbe deliberate choice of their constituents.
Tbe community would be educated and disciplin
ed under a republican administration in habits of
self government, and fitted for an association as a
Bute, and to the enjoyment of a place in the Con
federacy. A community so formed and organ
ized, might well claim admission to tbe Union
and none would dispute tbe validity of the claim.
9. Rnolttd, That a recognition of this prinri-
pis would deprive tbe questions between Texas
and the United Statee of their sectional character,
and would leave them for adjustment without
disturbance fronr sectional prrjudlrre and pas
sions, upon considerations, of magnanimity and
justice.
10. Resslved, That a recognition of this princi
ple would infuse a spirit of conciliation in the
discussion and adjustment of all tbe subjects of
sectional dispute, which would afford a guaranty
of an early and satisfactory determination.
II. Rnolttd, That in the event a dominant
majority shall refuse to recognise the great con
stitutional rights we assert, and shall continue to
deny tbe obligations of the Federal Government
to maintain them, it is Hie sense of this Conven
tion that the Territories should be irrated as pro
perty, and divided between the sections of the
Union so that the rights of both sections be ade
quately secured in their respective shares. That
wa are aware this course is open to grave objec-
lions, hut we are ready to acquiesce in the adon-
thm of the Hue of 36 ifeg. 30 min. Noilh latitude,
extending to the Pacific Ocean, as an extreme
concession, upon considerations of what Is duo to
tbe stability of our institutions. v
13. Rtodved. That it is tbe opinion of this Con
vention this controversy should be ended, either
by a recognition of tbe constitutions! rights of
the Southern people, or by an equitable partition
of the Territories. That the speclaeleof a con
federacy of States, involved In quarrels over the
fruits of a war in which tbe American arras were
crowned with glory. Is humiliating. That the
oratiuu of the W11 mot Proviso in the offer
lent, a proposition which fourteen States
■*’ garaging and dishonorable, is de-
A country. A termination to this
y by tbe disruption of the Confederacy
S.tnrionmrnt of the territories to pre-
result, would be a climax to tbe shame
which attaches to the controversy wbicb it is the
paramount duty of Congress to avoid.
13. Resolved, That this Convention will not
conclude that Congress will adjourn without ma
king an adjustment of this controversy, and in
the condition in which the Convention finds the
ona before Congress, it does not feel at lib-
D.discuH tbe methods suitable fora resist-
o measures not yet adopted, which might
b a dishonor to tho Southern States.

Union Hall,8abatooa Spbinob#—We learn
through a private letter from Saratoga, that this
popular hotel has already been thrown open for
tbe reception of company, and that on tbe 11th
inst. there were over one hundred visitors at the
bouse, while Islt year at the time time there
were but fifteeo. The Saratoga Republican,
epeaking of tbe hotel, aaye: “it is still under the
supervision and management of Mrs. Wash
ington Putnam & IIBnby H. Hatmobn, by whom
it won gulden opinion^ the year previous. It is
now undergoing the process of improvement and
repair. Inside and out, and avery thing that good
taste snd liberality can suggest will be done to
make it, ae It alwaya has been, a favorite reaort
for strangers. There is no hotel in this country
which enjoys a better reputation or is any better
kept and conducted, than Union Hall. Mrs.
Putnam, the lady proprietor of this establish
ment, has been connected with it, uninterrupted
ly, for more than twenty years, and to whom its
guests, during that long period, are iodebled fot
much of the comfort hitherto enjoyed. The
death of Washington Putnam before the open
ing of tbe hotel last year, threw the chief re
sponsibility of sustaining its well-earned fame
upon Mrs. P., and thousands in all parte of the
country can attest to the satisfactory manner in
wbicb she has thus for performed her duties,
llcr co proprietor and associate in conducting the
business, now as last year, Mr. JIathobn, brings
to the performance of his duties, qualifications
eminently fitting him for the station—liberality
in providing, politeness and affability to stran
ger*, and a strict attention to the wants and com
forts of his patrons.
With personal qualifications such as these,
and a fine hotel fitted up and furnished in the
most fashionable style, with its extensive piazzas
and pleasure grounds, its large and spacious
apartments for families or parties as well as indi
viduals, tbe proprietors of Union Hall have every
reason to anticipate, as they richly merit, a full
share of tbe public patronage."
Votes Pollxo by New States.—On her ad
mission as a State, Louisiana pulled 4,748 votes;
Indiana, 6,789; Mississippi, 7,476s Illinois, 8,075;
Arkansas, 3.638; Mirhiran, 11.3G0: Florida, 6,301,
I and Iowa, 13,971. California polled, last year,
14/213 American votes. These statistics are
tnkeu from an article In the last Southern Recor
der; to show that California is better entitled to
eompln, as a State, than either of the oliisra
mentioned. Resides, Texas, when admitted, had
an area of 325,600 square miles of territory. Cal
ifornia covers, by her constitution. 169,000 square
miles—leu than on* half of Texas—and half of
that a sandy desert or unarable and rooky
mountains. How unreasonable then for tbe South
to object to the admission of California, berause
she chooses to have slavery!— Georgia Citizen,
Aoa or TtMiaa.—The piles under London
Bridge have been driven 600 years. On exami
nation, in-1766, they were found to bo but little
decayed. They were principally of elm. Old
Ravqry Plaoe, m London, was built 680years ago,
nnd the wooden piles, consisting of oak, elm,
beech and cheroot, were found upon recent ex
amination to be perfectly sound. Of the dura
bility of limber in a wet state, tho piles of the
bridge built by the Emperor Trajan, over the
Danube, afforded a striking example. Ono of the
piles was taken up, end found to be petrified to
tho depth of three qutrtrrs of an inch; but the
rest of the wood was not different from Us former
State, though it had been driven more than 1600

The Lawsbncb Divobce Case.—Judge Brt-
lock, of Louisville, derided this case on Monday
of last week- Tho decision grants a divorce to
Mrs. Sally WABoLAWEBNCEfrom her husband,
G. SiafiLow Lawrence.
"Wabs and Rumobs or Wabs.’’—While the
opposition papers are ever prating of the dissen
siona in the ranks of the whip, it is nbt without
amusement to watch the contest that is now go
ing on about Washington among the " uulcrri-
(led democracy." Tho ona side is led and offl
cered by Messrs. Cass, Foote, Speaker Cobb,
Boyd, and father Ritchie, tha organ-grinder, or
fifer; the other by Benton, tho northern anil-
compromise democrats, and tire southern chival
ry. Between these two factious an intestine, fra
tricidal war is waged, and brother stands ready
to imbrue his bands In the blood of brother. Tho
breach Is evidently widening and deepening, and
bids fair soon to become an impassable gulpfa.
Upon the success of the Compromise, in the opin
ion of Messis. Cass k Co., hang ail the hopes of
tbe unity and euecess of the " great national
democratic party." Upon its defeat,* eay the
other aide, depends the political salvation of tbe
free-soit wing of the party at the north, which
delights iu troubled waters; nnd of tbe firu-ealers
of the south, who, in imitation of Petcb the Her
mit, are beating up for crusaders to rescue lb«
constitution, sword In hand, from the desecration
of the northern Saracen.
A passage at arms has already occurred be
tween Messrs. Cash and Bbnton, tbe leAdcre of
tbe opposing forces. Tbe great Missourian, the
Lieutenant General of the chivalry and freo-soil
forces, commenced tbe attack by dealing out
some of bis hardest blows at tbe Compromise.
He ridiculed it as a huge cataplasm brought for
ward to heal " the five wounds of the country"—
as a "Sand's Sarsaparilla ” affair—an unholy
onion of discordant and incongruous measures—a
damnable marriage of tbe fair California to four
strapping beaux, which, in his opinion, was rank
polygamy, and an insult to her virtuo as well
as to South Carolina and Massachusetts. Mr.
Cass, the leader uf tbe quiet, conservative por
tion of the democracy, returned blow for blow
defending the Compromise from the attack of tbe
Missouri bison, sud allowing that it is a wise end
patriotic measure, which every friend of tbe coun
try and the constitution may support. Rut this
is only the beginning of tbe combat. The main
battle remaina to be fought, when many a veteran
politician will be sent to his " long account," or
disabled for life. This battle will be contested
over the Compromise. In the meantime, consid
erable skirmishing is going on betweeu the offi
cers of lesser note. Mr. Meads and others, of
Virginia, and Messrs. Wallacs, Bust and Wood-
wabd, of South Carolina, in addition to divers free
soilors from tbe north, ever and anon fire into
their opponents from their seats in Congress,
through letters and addresses to their constituents
and tbe public. For every such shot father
Ritchib returns a broadside from the Union bat
tery. He denounces them as ultraists snd disu-
nionlsta, who are determined to be satisfied with
nothing.
The numerous changes which have taken place
among the men and papers of the party, aro wor
thy of note. Mr. Cass was once the contempt,
and then tbe admiration, of tbe Charleston
Mercury. Now they are as wide as the poles
asundor. The same may be said of Gen. Foots,
once a " patriot and statesman," but who is now
ridiculed for "securing a good assortment of cer
tificates" for the Compromise, "evidently bis
true vocation." So of tbe Washington Union.—
Bbnton too, at ono time the raw head and bloody
bones of free aoilistn, tbe coward and tbe bully,
is now working “ check by jowl" with the Mer
cury in keeping up tbe agitations of the day.—
Verily, fanaticism and uitraiam make strange
bed-fellows. Indeed the political millennium is
at hand—for now
"The Beat, the West, the South, and snowy North,
Rejoicing meet."
Tho wolf dwells with tho lamb—the abolition
ist with tbe slaveholder. With looks of love,
Bbnton, and IIalx, and Sbwabd, and Gid-
dings, now lio down with Mason, and Clemens,
and Vulex, and Bust. Tho chivalrio Knight of
Palmcttodom and the fanatical Crusader of Aboli
tionism, tbe Charleston Mercury and tho National
Era, together wage war upon the Compromise
and tho country’s peace. Tho littlo ultraist of
tho south now leaps from bis mother’s arms, and
strokes the crested snakeof anti-slavery, and rolls
"among bis speckled waves;” and the sauntering
free soli school-boy, slow returning, plays at evo
about the den of tho lion of slavery, and weaves
into bis shaggy mane fantastic flowers.
Does tbe country see no cause of alarm in this
meeting of extremos—this amalgamation of in
congruous and discordant elements! Is there
nothing ominous in this friendly reunion of the
houses of York and JLancas ter,after years of bloody
ktrife? It ia a milleolum indeed, not of peace
and harmony, but of evil spirits, who seek, by
spells and enchantments, to foment strife and bit
terness In tbe land? Let them be "cast out.”
Let tbe country be exorcised of them, and then,
and not till then, may we expect a return of con-
cord and good feeling.
CHATTANOOGA• JUNE 14, i860.'
This place is last attaining the importance to
which It is ultimately destined. Tho completion
of the Nashville and Chattanooga Rail-Road will
give it another step In advance. That road will
cross the Tenncseeeats point known as Long
Island, twenty-seven miles, by land, below here.
For the mere matter of crossing, there are pieces
enough, but this is the nearest ono which satis
fies the conditions as to grade, Jtc. The contract
for grading this distance ia already given out,
and it ia not known that any contingency can
arise which will materially retard the construc
tion of the entire work. I will add in tills con
nection, that the East Tennessee and Georgia
Rail-Road, (110 miles,) from Knoxville to Dal
ton, lain a most healthy elate of progress. 1 saw
Mr. 8m!Tii, one of the Directors, this morning—
you meet people from all quarter* here—who says
that tbe Iron for the Aral forty miles from Dalton
will be purchased and received within two months.
I expect that atrangemente can be made to re
ceive tbe Iron at Savannafce and transport it over
the Central and Macon and Western Roads.—
Other things being equal, this route would be
preferred. This road will be the best ono in the
South—rails 61 lbs. to tbe yard, resting solely on
cross-tics two feet apart from centre to centre.
With eight inchee bearing, and mud-sills beneath
tbe ties. The first 40 miles is already gradad,
and an excellent bridge is already built across
tbe Hlwsssee river. Forty miles more are iu ac
tive progress, and the Iron will be soon ordered.
The bonds of the Stato of Tennessee, bearing an
interest of 6 per cent., are relied upon for the
purchase of the iron. Such bonds are now at 4
percent, premium In Tennessee. I speak of these
things to show tho readers of the Republican how
rapidly and how surely these works aro advanc
ing towards their completion. Of the Memphis
and Charleston Rail-Ruad, more hereafter.
I return to Chattanooga. This place bee been
well started, (if I may use such an expression,)
and its business is conducted on sure and judi
cious principles, without any want of Intelligent
enterprise on one hand, and without reckless ex
travagance on the other. The character of those
engaged in the pursuits of commerce and trada
i**agood guaranty of prudent and healthy growth
Tha principal commission bouse* here are B.
Chandlkb k Co., J. F. Bbooke k Co., Wil>
son, Bsvan. Gaines k Co., and J. G. Didlake
k Co. Tbe following keep the most ample as
sortments of country supplies: Newton It Lu
cas, Macaulay Ii Hoobk, W. 8. Townsend,
E. E. Wobley, G. W. Haskell, (formerly resid
ing in Savannah,) M. B. Pabiiam, J. F. Baooxt
k Co., A. D. Tavlob, J. G. It E. A. Glass, J
P. Lono, F. W. Lucas, and perhaps others whom
I do not know. I find these gentlemen most fa
vourably affected towards Savannah, and fully
apprised of the great exertions which our citizens
have made Insecure a communication with them.
Tho interests of our city and the Central and
Macon It Weatein Roads have a constant and
judicious friend and advocate here and else
where in General Mills, so well known as the
Isle ablo Superintendent of the State Road.
These interests are represented by liiin in the
most efficient manner. Ho knows the country,
the people and tbe business, and in my opinion
tlio Directors ot these Roads could not well
have found another Agant, so popular, so ablo
and active. Tito reaultsof the business of the
past season, however, speak more emphatically
ia his praise than any thing I could say. While
■peaking of this placo I may not foil to add that
Mr. Montoomeev keeps a neat house, where tho
traveller finds himself most comfortable. Ths
table set forth by Mr. M. is excellent. Mr. Alex
ander is also spoken of as an obliging and at
tentive landlord. A new brick hotel of some
filly-fire placet has just been completed here
with ample accommodations. Chattanooga boasts
of two well conducted papers, of opposite prin
ciples of couree— both of them being the ardent
friends and supports** ot every useful improve
ment. I speak ot tbe Gazette, edited by Mr.
Pasham, and the Advertiser,edited by Mr. Foao,
Tlio "Lion" of Chattanooga’(the Lookout
Mountain) has been often described. Tho view
from its elevated summit is not probably surpass
ed by any in tho United States.
It is hardly necessary to add that I have met
Charlestonians everywhere rn route. Their ac
tive perseverance commands my admiration,
Doing immeasurably less for internal improve
ments than citisens of Savannah, they yet out
strip them in securing business. The destiny uf
Savannah is pronounced, and few causes can re
tard it; but it is our duty to "do as the Romans
do." The task is not difficult—success is not un
certain. Greater obstacles have yielded beforo
our well directed efforts. Since our neighbors
will form acquaintances, and solicit business in
Ibis region washed by the Tennessee without
waiting at home, we should do the same thing.
Having done so much, wo should not remain
strangers toa country where our presence is really
welcome, and where such inducements are offer-
ed. We have had Herculean tasks to perform
hitherto, hut we are now arriving at the comple
tion of our enterprises, and we shall have more
leisure in future to direct our attention in an out
ward direction. Nor do I propose to preach with-
out practising. It has always been my ambition
to give tbe Republican a fair circulation in those
regions so lately inaccessible to us. Acting on
this principle, I am gratified to state that I have
made a handsome addition to our subscription list
at several points of North Alabama, in this place,
and elsewhere, and that I have arranged to pro
cure yet more. In doing tbia, I hope I have done
some public as well aa private service. It is to ths
Interest of our city, that her commercial, social,
and political movement be no longer a sealed
book in this quarter, where the dearth of papers
from any part of the Atlantic seaboard is great
indeed. Youra, J. L. L.

Rteolved, That in the opinion of this meeting,
if the principles of the compromise are faithfully

harmony will speedily be restored, and sectional
jealousies be allayed, the union of the States more
nnnly ccmentrit^md all will aid in strengthening
and pepotuating the institutions of uur beloved
country.
Resolved, That the peace, harmony, prosperity
and integrity of the Union can only be preserved
by that spirit of magnanimous roncesiioii and
compiomUo in which the Federal Constitution
had Us birth, and that we deeply deprecate and
deplore the factious spirit which has innnifcalod
itself iu Congress, calculated to weaken the bond*
of fralcrua! union, for sectional and selfish frur-
puses.
The report was received, and the resolutions
adopted by acclamation.
On mutton of Thomas Harney, Esq., it was re*

Congress; and,on amendment of A.8. Mitchell, 4 ^' '
Esq., to the Chairman of the Committee of Thir

ber of that Committee.
—
In tho Senate on tho 13th, tlio cotnpromlao Bill
wai taken up—the motion of Mr. Tubnbv pend*
tng to strikeout all that relates to Texas
Mr. WABsraa spoke briefly against the motion—
urging thn expediency of an interposition by this
government between Texas and Now Mexico.
Mi.Sbwabd said Texas bad not a shadow of tl
tie to any part of New Mexico. If we gave fifteen
millions to buy our peace, we should create fifteen
millions of sympathies against tho immediate ad
mission of California; and should destroy the con
stitution which New Mexico brought with her,
and make ft aiava*holding territory. If we let
Texee Alone, she would, iu tho end, get ea much
of New Mexico aa she was entitled to, and that
just none At ell. If this bill were withdrawn wa
could Appoint a Board of Commissioners to draw
the boundary line between Now Moxlco and
Texas, or refer the subject to Uis Supreme Court.
Texas owed all the money ahe borrowed to carry
on her war, and the United 8talce, by annexing
her to the Union, knowing that Texas could not
pay her national debt, nsaumed the obligation to
pay th* debt. He was for paying the debt.
Mr. Clamens said he bad no doubt that the
whole territory claimed by Texas belonged to
her; but tlio Semite decided otherwise. He moved
now to fill the blank with one million of dollars,
which was all that was due to Texas on account
of the duties on imports into Takas, collected by
the United Slates since her annexation.
Mr. Clay hoped the motion would be voted
down. He denied that this bill had delayed the
public business and preveuted the admission of
California. Thoao who resisted the committee
were liable to the charge. On the 13th April, the
motion was mads by Mr. Foote to appoint the
committee. Had it been done, according to usage,
we might long ago have acted. But by persever*
ingly resisting tho appointment of a committee,
the long delay woaoccasioned. Thecourseuf this
minority was the cause of the embarrassment of
the publto business in this branch of Congress.
This minority now obstructed progress by re
newing motione for amendment, on which the
majority ol the 8cuate bad frequently decided
against. To postpone, check, evade, and pro-
craailnato was the policy of the minority. It had
been for weeks the anxious will of the friends of
the compromise bill to take the queetion. They
iutd taxed their physical power* to the utmost by
attending here. Ho, with weak and trembling
limbs, hid dragged himself here to-day, in the
hope that the minority would suffer some pro
gress to be made in the bill. He would answer
for the majority, that they would tajeo no course
that would prevent final aclioo«a Jt in ono week.
Mr. Foote expressed bis abbotemmee of tho po.
licy advocated by tho Senator from New York.
If we did not settle the Texan boundaxy, it would
be ecttied by tho sword. Toxas would not yield
in this conflict, nor would she halt in her rouiso.
Now, the Senator from New York invukes the
force of the executive government in resistance
to Texas. If a drop of Texas blood was shed in
the contest, by tho executive power, every man
in the south would take up arms in behalf of
Texas, snd wa should be involved in civil war.
This inlirht suit the policy of some one aspirant
who, north of Mason k Dixon’s line, might expect
to preside over A portion ot A dismembered con
federacy.
The discussion was continued by Mr. Sbwaad
Sir. Tuanev, and Mr. Bbnton.
Mr. Clay rejoined to tbe retnArks of Mr. Ben-

BOSTON, JUNE 11, I860
Tho all absorbing topic of conversation among
out good citizens, at the present time, is Olio-
don's Mummy, some three thousand years of
age, more or less. The learned Orientalist made
a slight mistake In deciphering the hieroglyph
ics,—he guested it was a woman, when so it turn
ed out to be a man. But the faith of those who
believe in^GLtoooK ia unshaken—nothing short
of an earthquake would disturb their belief. The
Mummy itself is a great humbug, inasmuch as
iu cinbalmers only steeped it in hot pitch, not
taking a thought of the terrible disappointment
that would result, when it should be unrolled to
tho gazo of the staring and wonder-loving yan-
kee. The poor Egyptian, whose form has been
so unceremoniously exposed to view, was not
perfumed at all; tbe consequence of which is that
he is looked upon by all with disgust. To shew
you how close and accurate an observer ia Prof.
Aoassix, the Swiss Satan, I may mention that
when the face of the Mummy was first exposed
to view, lie pronounced it to be that of a man—ail
the other medical gentlemen disagreeing with
him. Tho complete unrolling of the figure only
confirmed hie judgment.
There is almost a complete atagnstion of busi
ness at tho present timo—though importations aro
coming in heavily upon us, to be paid for by-and-
bye. Some of our importing merchants must ex
perience the turning of the screw, I think,
with heavy stock* on hand and but little or no
deinaud for goods. The alteration in the British
Navigation Laws, and our own, to meet the re
quirements of treaty, baa bad the tendency to
increase, and largely loo, the number of arrival*
of British vessel* nt this port. Within the last
four or five weeks, great numbers of them have
arrived from England and Ireland, many of them
freighted only with tho better class of population.
As a set-off, our vessels hove gone to the provin
ces to take deals for Englund, and at 1cm freight
than tbe Pritisb vessels have charged for theeamo
service. Whst the final result will be upon our
own navigation interests, time alone can deter
mine. I see by a proclamation of the Governor
General of India, that the coasting trade of India
is to be thrown open to our vessels. This may
give employment to eomo of our shipping, which
is uow unemployed, notwithstanding the number
of vessels which have sailed for California.
Tbo money market continnes easy—little paper
is offered on the street—the want* are nearly all
supplied by tho banks In the atook market con
siderable Activity bAS prevailed during the week.
Appeal raoH Massachusetts to its Repre
sentatives.—The Boston Daily Advertiser says:
" The following letter to our delegation in Con-
grrss has just been prepared, and will to-day be
circulated for signatures. Wo know that it ex
presses the views of them who voted for those
who represent Massachusetts in Congress, nnd
suppose therefore that it will receive a large num
ber of signatures."
7b the Massachueelte Delegation in Congrett:
Gentlemen—Tho political state of the coun
try, we think, justifies and demands thn expres
sion of the opinions and wishes of llinsts of your
constituents who feel that the iinliou is in a dan
gerous position. We sec, on every side, an un
precedented excitement of feeling, unfavorable
alike to wise counsels nnd friendly dispositions;
and, even in Congress, we think wo peieoivo ttn
alarming deficiency ol the spirit of conciliation
nnd mutual rouccsaios. We need not remind
? 'ou that nu controversy can be settled without a
urge measure of that spirit oil both sides.—
That alone enu restore tho nation to its accus
tomed calmness of prsgrrss, and give us that
beneficent legislation for which Congress wns
created, and without which there can be neither
G nee nor prosperity; and we would urge you,
• every consideration whit It can Imj drawn from
the recollections uf uur history, nnd Iho hopes of
our futurity, not to bn wanting in your share of
that temper whirh will lead ton rmsonnble ad
justment of existing difficulties; to let no pride
of power—no dcsira to obtain advantages, nor to
push political rights loan unwiso extreme—pre
vent you from adopting measures which will tend
to restore peace, prosperity, and kind feeling.
We desire tu be represented in Congress ■■ men
acting with*fortiesrnucc. We trust, therefore,
that you will be induced to give a ready support
to those measures which will most speedily pro
duce, and will longest maintain the spirit of
union. Respectfully, Ac.

were destroyed by fire. The mail matter was
saved with liitlo damage. Many packages were

A Const Appboaohino.—The now comet is

it will attain its minimum distance from us of

one half its present dUtance. The N. Y. Mirror

As tt la also approaching the sun, it will become
five or six times brighter than It now is. On the

Mr. Houston spoko in reply to some remarks
heretofore made by Mr. Dayton. He said Texas
had never threatened to use-military force. Sho
had but a single commission, and her authority
had been obeyed. Hut Texne was tnouaced with
force, if she asserted tier rights.
Mr. Bbnton and Mr. Clay had some conlro.
versy in regard to the allegation of the laltor,
that Mr. Benton was, last November, opposed to
the admission of California.
Mr. Benton denied it.
Mr. Clav read (lie letter from 8t. Louis, signed
John 11. Reed, statiug that Mr. Benton had ex
pressed these views.
Mr. Benton hoped the letter would bo entered
on the journal. He proceeded to allege that Mr.
Clay had delayed the business of Iho 8enate, and
wae originally in favor of admitting California
as a separate incnsuie.
But the Senator should not get off by bringing
up so offset.
Mr. Clav—I have no thought of getting off.
Mr. Benton—You shall not, If you wish to.—
[Much laughter.] Ho would hold the Senator ns
the author of that letter, for ho iiad produced it.
II* did not admit the Senator’s rigiit thus to ar
raign him for delaying business. Tho Irtter is
ait lufainuus calumny, and I thus brand it—and I
brand (land tha publisher of it.
Mr. Clay. I repel with scorn and contempt
tho Senator’s insinuation against tne.
Mr. Benton. Oh, you muy send It back, but
you gut it firsl.
Mr. Websteb. I hear with pain such offensive
remarks. It is (lie duty of the Chair to stop
debates on personal mnitors. Ho could not sit
hero quietly and witness such breaches of d*
corum.
Mr. Bbnton. Oh, it is all over.
The Vice President said ho did not perceive tho

Mr. Hals said that when he was attacked and

Mr. Undbbwood took the floor. He did not

House qf Representative!, June 13 —Tho House
met at 12, and went intocominilteo on the Cali
fornia question, Mr. Boyd in the Chair.
The Chair stated that tho following was the
pending amendment to Iho amendment of Mr.
Gbecn, adopting the Mo.CumproinUo lino as the
Southern boundary of California.
"Provided that it shall be no obstacle to the ad
mission into the Union of any 8tate which may
hereafter be formed out of the Territory lying
South of the parallel of Intltudeof 36 dog. 30 min.,
that the constitution uf said State may authorize
or establish African slavery therein "
The proposition was debated under the five
minutes rule by Messrs. Thompson, of Miss.; Sto-
plii-ns, of Gn.; Wentworth, McLntiu, of Md.; Bo.
cock.Pcatherston, Meade, Hilliard, and Hubbard,
and the qurstion was taken thereon, and decided
in the negative—ayes 79, nocs 89.
Mr. Seddon introduced an amendment to the
Mismiuri Compromise Proposition of Mr. Green,
of Mo. as follows: "And nt tho timeofilsadop

slave-holding Slates, of tire territory of the United
Sintra, to the uttermost extent of its Western
limits, nnd as such was enacted mainly by tho
votes of tho representatives from tho non slave-
holding Sintra!
A debate of an interesting and exciting charac
ter arose on this amendment, in which Messrs.
Seddnn, Ilrown, of Miss.; Carter, Venable, Baker,
Meade, Stanton, Toombs, Wlnthrop, Thompson,
nfl’n.; Doer, Hull, Harris, of III,; and McCIcr-

From Mexico.—Tbe New Orleans Picayune of
tho 12th inst., says: Wo received yesterday
files of papers from Mexico, which, though no
later than bad previously come to band, contain
several items uf news
M. Melchob Ocampo, who had resigned his
office of Minister of tho Treasury, coulu not bo
persuaded to withdraw his resignation, and con*
scqucutly D. Bonipacio Gtmaasax was appointed
iu his place.
A kind of an insurrection had broken out In
tbe oily of Puebla among the officers and soldiers
composing thu battalion uf liurbhlo. It seems
that Senur Muuica, recently Governor of the
Stato,had,on account of III health, obtained leave
uf absence, during which D. Ualtasar Furlong
exercised tho functioos of the gubernatorial office.
Tills gave ■ good chnnee for a protiuiiciaineuto
to tbo unquiet spirits in ths army, and according*
ly they touk up a position and issued a pioctnina-
(ioii, declaring that they would never lav down
their arms tiirSeuor Mooioa rcsssumed the Gov*
etnorahip.
In Uuamsntla some difficulties of a more serious
nature had occurred. A number ot contraband
ists attacked tbe soldiers who were guarding the
tobacco and drove ibein off. Three hundred men
and two pieces of artillery wtie instantly depatch-
ed to tlio scene of disorder.
A very free discussion is going on in relation to
iho freedom uf religious worship, which is forbid
den by tbe cunstituliou of Mexico. The Cham
pion uf religious freedom and tbe natural rights
of man, not unly to entertain what upitiiotis tiiey
f ilcase uii that subject, but to worship God accord-
ug to their cunscieuce, is the editor of the Moni
tor Republics™. The existence uf such a publio
discussion forma ol itself an epoch In Mexican
history.
Tlio papers still contain accounts of thoterrlbls
ravages of tho cholera. In Taboscu tlio disease
had broken out with great violence. At Quere-
taro tbe number of deaths sinen the commence
men! of tho epidemie amounted to 799. Tho
Government lias decided, in css* the chulera
should attack the capital, to form a naw cemetery
at Muliuo del Rey.
The Hayti Mission.— 1 Tho objectof Mr. Green’s
recent mission to Iho Island of Hayti is thus stated
by tbe Washington correspondent of tho Now-
York Courier:
As the return of the special agent—Mr. B. B.
Green—who was appointed to visit tlio Island of
Hayti, twelve months ago, haa occasioned sums
■peculations ill tha press, which nro csloulntod to
mislead the public, it is proper that Iho real ob
jects of that mission should 6e understood, since
they wero never designed to be secret, and never
haveb en so regarded here. 8hutlly after the
Administration canto into power, attention was
directed to tlie diminished stato of our cumincrco
with that Island, which from beiug larger than
with all the British West Indies, had, iu a period
of seven years, been reduced, by civil ware be*
tween tho blacks and Duininirana, and otbsr
causes, to an iucunaiderabla trade.
This wns a sufficient object in itself, to have
justified tbe employment of an agrnt, if there
was any reasonable prospect of reviving that tie*
predated commerce by negotiation or more libe
ral regulations.
Tho important position occupied by 81. Domin
go, and the abundant supply of coal which its
vicinity furnished, *1*0 presented inducements,
In counrctiou with our steam marine, tradiu;
with California and distant parts, to demam
thu attention of the Government. Superaddcd to
llit-se considerations, however, it was ascertained
about thessine time, that England and France
had conceived designs for obtaining a foot-hold
oil the eastern part of the Island, undrr tlie Do
minican Government, which might operate to
tho disadvantage of the interests of the United
State*.
It was under these circumstances that Mr.
Green was employed to obtain the necessary In
formation concerning tho population, wealth nnd
resources of that porliuit of Hayti called Dutnini
ca, sod inhabited principally by tho white and
mixed races. One of the objects was tu ascer
tain their capacity for svlf-guvernmriit—for (he
administration ol justice ami tho like, looking to
tho recognition of their independence, should it
become necessary, ns a menus of saving this ter
ritory from foreign jurisdiction, or bo rendered
proper, by the spirit of enlightened progress and
civilisation. Tne intelligence communicated to
thu Government on three subjects is interesting
nnd hnpurtnnt, nnd may ba used with benefit tu
Hip great commercial cuinmunity.
The agent was Instructed, after fulfilling his
mission at St. Dotningo, to proceed tu Port au
Prince, fur the purpose of obtaining the recogni
tion of Consular agents who hod nover heforo been
received or acknowledged, und proruriligii rcnrnl
of a standing imposition of ten per eentiiiity
against American commerce. In tlie wars against
tlie Dominicans, Sou toque had cnuflscated Amur
lean property to carry utt hostilities, nud the ar
guments of tha agent worn strengthened by a de
mand for reparation. 1 am gratified to say,
that the American Hug now aflotds protection to
American commerce nt Port au Prince; tlial
tlio impost has been ahnmlonrd, ami that the
Just indemnity will |>o forthcoming in good sea
son. Mr. Grorn is engaged in thopprpnrntinn of
Ills report, wbicb will bo laid before Congress at
au early day.

Paris, Thursday Evening.
The news in reference to the Greek question,
wns cuiitrsrlictory, but tho general opinion ia that
it approaches A sail.factory setllomuiit. On the
Hourao it wsa believed that thu basis of a audio-
merit Imd been agreed oil.
Very little credit was attached to the report
about the withdrawal of the Russian Envoy from
London. The Morning Chronicle says, however,
Huron Urunuw will loave London if tlio reply uf
Lord Palmerston to thu Russian nulo be utuulia-
factory.
Forty-seven socialists were arrested in Paris on
Wednesday night.. They were members of a se
cret society. A large quantity uf ammunition
was found In Ibeir possession.
The apprehensions uf a i Uing uf tho people of
Paris have riled away, mainly, perhaps, owing
to tbe fact that General Chnugarnicr makes it
known that ho is fully prepared, with 160,000 men
at his back. The democratic journals, generally,
counsel patience and inuderaliuti.
The ticgutirttioui on tlio Greek difficulty have
not approached a conclusion. It is understood
that the French Cabinet insist on the execution
of the London convention, pure and simple; hut
Lord Normanby is still in Paris, and on ultima
turn saliafsclory to all parlies will, it Is expected,
be agreed on.
A rumor is current that Gen. Lafitte wilt short
ly retire from the ministry.
There Ims been a reconciliation between Car-
nignac and tho Mountain—Girnrdin arranging
thu concessions, and tho newly crested party
Will, it is expected, act with vigor. Girardin
will shortly be returned for tho Assembly. His
friends are in trepidation, lest the sentence pend
ing on him in Iho courts for printing a petition
without affixing a name of a licensed printer, will
be one of imprisonment.
The Paris correspondent of the London Times,
of Friday, says, a rumor lust reached me, which
if it turns uni to be true, is of impur'ance. It is
stated that tlie Emperor of Russia, after haviug
received despatches announcing thn solution of
the question between Hie Greek and English gov
ernments, decided on at once recalling Ids am
bassador from London. It is added Ihatthebear-
er of tho order went out uf the way to coimnuni-
i nto hie despatches to tho Russian Ambassador nt
Paris, who had received instructions either to re
tain or forward tho despatch according to the eir*
cuinstance in wbicb lie found hluiaelf.
Italy.
Romo was tranquil ou the 91st May, but (ho

tho day previous, no mention for niunetaiy re

The archbishop of Turin has been convicted of
violating Iho Inws uf tho press, and sentonccd to
imprisonment, nnd a fine of 600 francs.
Adviccsa from Flor« tire, of the 21st inst., state
that Lord Palineislon has addressed a nolo tu the
cabinet of Naples, on the subject of tlie indemni
ties claimed by British subjects. Tho King is
anid to have consulted the plenipotentiary of tlie
great powers, who hnvo declined to express an
opinion, ou account of the late events in Greece.
Germany.
Accounts from Berlin, of tho 29th, stato that
Prussia will withdraw her forces from Schleswig,
hut will not arcedo to tho stipulation of tho Con
gress of Loudon. Denmark, on the other hand,
refuses to accept tho proposition of Prussia, His
said, on tho German qurstion. Austria has ex
hibited a disposition to yield to tho requirements
of Prusain.
Entertainment to a Phince.—A brilliant
entertainment was given, on Monday night, to
the Prince of the 8andwich Islands and Dr. Judd,
by a wealthy gentleman at Clifton, Staten Island,
N. Y.
...The house and grounds of the proprietor were
illuminated i several largo tents were erected,
under which a ray parly, consisting of shout
four hundred ladies and gentlemen, were enter
tained with dancing and feasting. A fine band of
music was in attendance, and tho tables wero
loaded with every delicacy tho season afforded.
Some of tha guests were from Boston, New-Yoik,
Philadelphia and Baltimore. The dancing con
tinued until a late hour. The affair was one of
unrornmun splendor, apd went off with groat
■atiefaction to those who participated.
Bubnino the Dead.—There ia in London
among the multitude of 'associations,' one for tho
"Burningof tho Dead." Ills proposed to con
struct an edifice for a funeral pyre In the imme
diate vicinity of London, "upon principles that
