Correspondence of the Daily Morning News. New Yoke, May 24, 1800. There is nothing particularly stirring in the city at present, and even the Cuban invasion is not regarded with great interest, though tho One Star Bonner ia ■till tloating from the fifth story window of the Sun building. 3y the bye, I conversed yesterday with u person who is waiting hero for news from Cuba, be fore starting to join the invaders. lie assures me that none have left this port at present; but that a large body of men are ready to start at any moment, and their arrangements are such, that the authorities cannot prevent their departure. According to hta statement, Lopez does not contemplate a revolution ary movement Immediately; or, at least, does not calculate upon it. It is skid that he can take up a po sition and-maintain it for two years, against all the forces Spain can bring against him. There is no lack of funds, it seems, New York being tho principal source; but Mobile, 1 hear, has contributed liberally. The gallant fellows departed yesterday on their mission of mercy towards the North Pole, in search of Sir John Franklin. It was a very interesting scene, for thousands of persons had collected to give them a cheer at parting. They proceed direct to Baffin's Bay, thence to Lancaster Sound, through Barrow'i Straits, and their'future course will depend upon the ice, and shquld their progress westward bo obstruc ted, they will return to Baffin’s Bay, and attempt it in another direction, and if expedient, pass through Behring’s Strait to the Pacific. This is the general plan, buti of course, to be changed according to cir cumstances. May success crown their efforts. The Immigration this season is positively startling, I am happy to say, however, that large numbers are proceeding westward; one boat, a few nights since, took 1,950 to Albany. The passage money amounted to $2,100, and the freight about $500. You may im agine the scene on board,—it cannot be described. It Is astonishing to what length cupidity will lead a man, and how eagerly he will seize upon every chance of making a few dollars. One of our theatrical man agers, it seems, wanted Mrs. Forrest to appear on his stage, and thus make money for him by the unfortu nate and painful notoriety she has obtained. But the most disgraceful instance of this kind, is an exhibi tion now open In this city, of t wo statuettes, colored, and the size of life, of the late Dr. Farkman, and Prof. Webster. There is also exhibited a daguerreo type ot the Janitor of the College, Littlefield. I am told it is visited by a largo numbers of persons 'daily; but, for my own part, I cannot imagine a greater out rage upon decency and propriety, and instead of sus taining it, the public should frown upon, such an * fl y£ a ro is no excuse for not educating children in tbft city, for, it appears, that we havo 199 Public 8chools: ■65 Ward Schools; 115 Public School Society; and 19, Corporate Schools. Last year 53,546 scholars attend ed the Public Schools; and 49,428 the others; so that 102,974 children received the benefit of education, (free,) at a cost to the tax payers, of $248,300. The average attendance, however, was only 35,998. It was expected that Norton, the libeller of Miss Crean, would have been sentenced to day, but the Court decided to go on with Bennett’s trial, and pass sentence to-morrow. Bennett’* case will probably cltwe to-day, so far as the testimony is concerned. The defence is, that “one-eyed Thompson,” the scape goat, seemingly, of all the villains, wrote the note, having stolen a letter of Foster’s to Bennett, and re moved all the writing but the signature, by a chemi cal process, and then filling the blank in the form of a nQW . it was very ingeniously contrived, and had Mr. Foster chanced to have died about the time It became due, no doubt the estate would have paid it I don’t think Bennett win be convicted. The Ohio is coming up the bay as I close my letter, and she may have news from California and Cuba, though it is doubtful. If so, you will get It by tele graph, in advance of the mall. The American and Foreign Bible Society are.hold- ing protracted meetings in the city ; and the subject of altering seme portions of the Scriptures has caus ed warm debates, but the majority, I hear, hak resol ved not to interfexa at present.

She Is to give a fewcon- certs at Mobile, anil wo presume will pay our city a visit on her way North. he found that his father, nn old officer ol Napolean having come under suspicion ot the government ns a friend to Republicanism—bad been murdered bv a detachment of Russian soldiery after a resistance by himself and retainers of three days, his castle de molished, and estates confiscated—that his sister, a beautiful girl of 17, to shield herseli from their brutal ity, had taken her own life. Despairing ol a cause to which he was ardently and instinctively attached the cause of huntnn rights and civil liberty—beset by danger and overwhelmed with the desolation of his house nnd his hopes, lie again sought our shores, tuna landed at Baltimore, last fall, and came thence to this place. For some time after his arrival among us he was sustained by the novelty of hie situation, the en couragement of friends nnd the plans which he form ed for the future ; but becoming accustomed to these and distrusting, from wont of experience and means, IPs capacity and fitnessforthe business pursuits ol life he indulged in the gloomiest memory of his misfor tunes and shrank from the prospect of becoming depen dent upon This friends. To the world he betrayed but little or the anguish that was praying upon his heart, and theterrible conflict between life and death, that was passing in his mind—but his more intimate ac quaintances were awaro of his intense unhappiness, and did much to cheer and strengthen him. We have reason to believe that hiB days were prolonged -several months-by these means; but. alas ! they could not preserve from destruction a life, which, under happier -auspices, would have proved a blessing to film self and an honor to hia land. W e have never Known any event so suggestive of pity and regret as the melancholy one which terminated his exist- •ence. . , .. In no moment ofmadness—in lio paroxysm ol the passions—in no delirium of the brain—but upon a calm and well considered calculation of'the good and evil of existence;—with every indication of seli-pos- session and of nerve, he stilled the quick and levered throbbings of his heart, and silenced the voice that spoke oniv sorrow to his soul. He had, by his frank ness, his enthusiasm, his intelligence and strict moral ity, as well as by- the graces of his person and man ners and by his romantic history, won most warmly the sympathy, respect and admiration ot all who en joyed his acquaintance. We have never known a warmer heart or braver spirit; and the last scene m the sombre story of hia life, attested by its circum stances that the one was not crushed by misfortune, nor the other embittered by adversity. Iiis last words were those of gratitude and affection, his-last act was neither a mad defiance of Fate nor an unmanly despair of the future, but the effect of principles and feelings in some measure attributable to hia birth, education, and life, a too constant and gloomy contemplatian ot his iU fortune, and a keen sense of shame at the thought of forfeiting his independence. There are piany who will look upon him aa he spoke ot himselt inaletter written to a friend but a few minutes before Ins death, as “ a soul in error," but there are none who have generous hearts, that will speak coldly or harshly of the unhappy stranger. Let none reproach him, for none can fell the agony that wrung his soul. Hit remains were attended to the Presbyterian grave yard, where they now repose, by a large procession of the Son* of Temperance, of which order he *«s « member, and by a number of citizens. Peace to his troubled spirit I The Compromise. We stntcd in our article yesterday that there were unmistakable indications, in certain quarters, of a de termination to defeat Mr. Clay’s bill, with a view to keep the slavery question open for another politics] campaign. Tho late of the compromise of the last Congress, and the influence the unnatural death of that bill had upon the last Presidential campaign is regard ed as ahopeful precedent, and there Is no doubt in our mind, that if tho present bill is defeated, it will be for the same selflih motive that prompted the smothering of the former measure in the House. But as we have said, we do not believe that tho people, who have ao much at stake in the matter, and who are growing so heartily tired of the angry controversy to which it has given rise, will submit to any lunger delay, or that they will permit themselves longer to bo deluded by the mock heroics and transparent patriotism of those politicians who desire to use this question for election- eering capital, who would keep it open as a perpetual element of excitement. Reflecting men of both par ties begin to see through the motives of those who oppose every scheme of settlement, and who, ns each new arrangement is proposed, seem to bo watching the favorable time to interpose their influence to prevent an adjustment of the question. As an evidence that we are not alone in this opinion we oiler the following article from the Baltimore Clip, per, the leading Whig paper in Baltimore—a paper whose veteran editor has never shrunk from a hold nnd candid avowal of his sentiments on all questions of national policy. The “ Omnibus Bill."—Wo consider it now certain that there will be an organized opposition to this bill, and that a fearful effort will be made to havo the door uf controversy on the slavery question open; with the view of making political capital for the next Presi dential election. We denounce all such mnneeuvers; and will lend no aid to schemers who would sacrifice the country to obtain or retain pov/er. We prefer the harmony of tho country—the preservation of the Union—to all parties, sectional or political—to all as pirants for political distinction, and we trust that the friends of the Union in both Houses of Congress will rally in defence of the measures introduced into the Senate by the committee of thirteen, as that alone can put a final extingusher on agitation, and amicably close the whole controversy about slavery. It is said, that the opposition to the “ omnibus bill, originates in part, from hostility to Mr. Clay, and from the sycophantic desire to please the President by a- doptinghis imperfect mode of treating the subject. We care not what may be the moii.es for the opposi tion; it is against the clearest mid dearest interests of the country: and, if the support of the bill bring ad ditional glory to Mr. Clay, Mr. Cass, and others, they will have deserved it by their patriotic labors in the cause of the nation. It is an interesting and touching sight to see the pa triarchs of the Senate—men who have grown gray in the public service—rise in their places and plead for their country against faction; and he who cannot admire and sympathize with them, deserves not pub lic confidence or respect. We have greatly mistaken the sentiments and char acter of the President, if he can be gratified by the defeat of measures which would heal all disfcontents —or if he would unite in any attempt to prejudice dis tinguished patriots for exerting themselves in the cause of their country. But, whatever may be hia feelings or disposition towards those who are seeking Not a Bbitish “Colored" Subject. It turns out that there has been no abridgement of the liberty of a British subject in America, in tho case of tho colored man in Charleston. It has been ascertained at tile Registry, in London, that Bowers was always described in the register tickets ns a native of Boston, Mass., and he was so entered in the articles of agree ment, when he shipped In the "Mary Ann." The wrath and indignation of members of Parliament, anil tho whole editorial corpB, has, therefore, been ex pended to no purpose. gl?ipying PORT OF SAVANNAH.” PORT C A L ENdTp moon’s PHASE* Last qr. 4th, 5h. 37m., m. | Fst 8 riiE Ur- 11 is New Mn, 11 ’ 6h lm.j’ a! | Fll idn.’iu,’ 8 U N May.

From Washington City The correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, writing under date of 21at Instant, says— This has been a brilliant and exciting day In the Senate Mr. Soule made a grand and imposing ar- mment against every feature of compromise, and declared that no Southern man could vote for it Mr. Soule was listened to with deep attention, and the im- nreaslon which it left ia anything other thanencour- aiimr to the friends of the peace and national harmo- nv * A sullen assent to a measure of peace is all thal be'eoald promise, and not that until every measure cf resistance was exhausted. Mr. Clay't mstimtane. -mis reply was a triumphant refutation of all the chief nointsof Mr.Soule's argument. But Mr. Clay had a still higher duty to perfom— that Is, to express his disapprobation of toe Provl- dent’s plan, and to call upon the friends of that plan, if oneuiere was, to stand up, not in a newspaper column, hut in the Senate, and defend that plan and compare Its advantages and mento with the compro mise scheme. Mr. Clay spoke with unusual elo quence, and in a tone notunhke that of indignation. If Mr Clay's scheme does not pass, it may not be positively averted that California will soon come into the Union. She will never come in on the Pres ident’s plan. The struggle may be a severe one, and may shake the Capitol to its base—but California is not so to come Into the Union. The country it now in a triple crisis. First, there is a threaten.ng difficulty in the controversy between Texas aud New Mexico, a difficulty involving na tional hate; next there is the California and W ilmot Proviso war; and, third, we are menaced with a pre cipitation into all sorts of difficulty growing out of the Cuban affair. The correspondent of the New York Commercial Advertiser, says: To-day Mr. Downs, of Louisiana, haa made the qpoet conservative speech yet heard from any South- i trn Democratic member, in which he expressed au intention of giving the compromise his untmaltied support. The speech surprised me more than his col league's did. 1 subjoin a list which an attentive ob server of the indications of Southern sentiment handed to me while Mr. Downs was f peaking, of those Southern Senators who are set down ns hostile to the committee's project. They are, Ma«cn, of Va; Butler and'Elmore, of S.

I have great doubts of the course of Bemen.Hpru- ance and Wales, and am much Inclined to believe that, if they fail in procuring the amendments toey desire, they will at last take th« bill oa the best they can get. Ireland. Several of the Orange Lodges have dissolved as political bodies. Those of the Tintona and Dromore district* follow the wake of the Armagh Orangemen, The Dublin Advocate says,— “We have been favored with a list of the persons to whom remittance* have been sent from America within the last eighteen months in the perish of Bal- linakill, county of Galway ; and we find that from 48 persons to less a sum than Afi83 bad been transmitted to this country during that period two-thirds of them also being laborers or servants. This statement ia important, as exhibiting tbo extensive field of em ployment on the other side of the Atlantic ocean, and the strong feelings of affection and attachment mani fested by the peasantry towards each other. These remittances have been chiefly to the mothers and sisters of emigrants, and sometimes to their wives and families, to bear the expenses of outfit and pas sage to the New World.” '< • Last week four hundred pauper* applied for ad mittance into the Tipperary Union I For want of funds the guardians were obliged to deny them relief. The Nation, of Saturday, publishes a long letter from the pen of Mr. Meagher. It bears date 1st of December, and is written in a frank, cheering, and uncomplaining spirit. He pays high testimony to the kindness which he received at the hands of the captain and all the officers of the Swift gun-brig, who, though not permited to hold conversation with the “ felons," allowed scarcely a day to pass over without the latter “ receiving some new and gratifying proof that they were in the company of gentle men." lungs or disposition towarus tnose wiiu are seeaiug heal the wounds of the nation, sectional factions must be crushed, and the country be steered safely through all difficulties. Whoever may be the instru ments of effecting these objects, will deserve and re ceive the heart-feltgfatitode of the people whilst their opponents will be remembered only to be condemned. Mr. Clay in his late great speech on on Compro mise measure, says :— I have seen with surprise and regret—persistence —for so I am compelled, painfully, t > regard it—from the Chief Magistrate of the country, in his own pe culiar plan. I think, in a spirit of compromise, the President ought to have come to us, and not we to him.” The opposition presses of the North take this para graph for a text, and in their comments, ridicule the assumption of Mr. Clay, that hia measure should take precedence over that of tho President. The Courier, and Enquirer says :— “ Whether it was the duty of the Administration to abandon its own public policy, to which it stood committed before the world, and to espouse one originating with its political enemies, is a point we shall not discuss. The country has had some experience on that point which cannot be use less. The Editor then vauntingly alludes to the history of John Tyleb's administration, and intimates that if Gen. Taylob* would avoid the fate of the former he mUBt not abandon his pledges. Now we have always regarded the promise to leave the legislation of the country to Congress, and to abstain from all Interference therein, as promenent among the pledges made by Gen. Taylob, previous to his election, and we doubt not that Mr. CLAYhad reference to this pledge, so often reiterated, when he made the remark above quoted. For our own part we know of no pledge made by Gen. Taylor which requires him to use his influence to defeat the com promise measure, while we think he incurs quite ns great a hazard by doing so as he would by giving it bis countenance, and support.

The Cuba Expedition.—Spanish Reprisals on America.—A long article appears in La Cornica, a Spanish paper in New York, earnestly refoting the Idea that "neither the people nor government of this country lends any aid nor gives no support" to the Cuba expedition. It inculpates even the official pa pers at Washington, says that the neglect of the gov ernment has been such as to render it responsible for the damage which may ensue to Spain, and add* : “ The armament to which the threats against Cuba have given a rise, ought to be the subject of a prompt and vigorous claim on the part of the Spanish Government, which opght, in no wise, to consider themselves responsible tor the injury which it might cause to the commerce of the Union, by stopping and searching at sea, any American vessel, in order to execute u duty belonging to the authorities of this country, but performed by them. It 's very possi ble, if our news from Madrid do not deceive us, that the Spanish government may this year begin to in demnify itself for these extraordinary expenses, by adjudicating to itself the interest of a certain national debt of bad oriein, which it has hitherto scrupulously paid to the United Stutea." More of the Lucre. The Ohio which arrived at N. Y. from Chagres on Friday brought $410,000, in dust, and $200,000 in specie, besides 11,000 in Span ish Doubloons, which were shipped from N.
