Homeless. Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun. Washington, June 28th, 1850. Much anxiety prevails here as to the result ol' the final vote in the Senate on the adjustment bill. I learn that the bill is losing strength daily in tho House of Representatives. It will be past praying for, be fore it reaches that body. Tho Southern members who were, at one time, very favorable to it, ore now hostile to its passage, it is notgaining in the North. Thfe tariff men were relied upon to come to the roB. cue, but they will not do it, unless the omnibus vvil] take the iron, cotton and wollcn interests ns passeu. gers. * The great battle is to commence in the House next week. The plan of the campaign is to be agreed on to-night, and the geucrui order will lie issued on Mon day next. Notices were posted in the hall of Repre sentatives to-day as follows: “Members of tlm House of Representatives, favorable to tho immediate ad- mission of California, separated from all other ques tions, will meet in this hail this evening at 8 o’clock.” It appears from anoticc in the Union that the Hon Mr. Doty leads the movement. The object of the meet ing will bo to take measures for passing his California bill next week or sooner. Mr. Clay alsojsmnmoned his forces to-day, but they were rather slow to arm. He was desirous of getting tho vote on engrossment of the adjustment bill on Wednesday. But to say nothing of others. Mr.Bell wished to speak at length, and I will allow two days at least. More amendments aro also to be discussed. Tho strong vote against Mr. Soule’s a- mettdmcut indicates nothing. Of the 3(i against tlie amendment, 19 are opposed to tho bill. The ab sentees were Messrs Borland, Bradbury, Dodge, of Iowa, Spruanee, Mangum: two for the bill, two against it, and Mr. Spruanee doubtful. If wo cun count with certainty on twenty-eight for the bill, it is as much ns we can do. and the result will be in doubt. The speeches against the bill, on general grounds are about to be made. Mr. John Davis of Mass, open ed the general debate on the part of tho Northern opposition, to-day, with great power and effect The main argument against the bill will be that it is no compromise, and that there is no ground for com- promise between slavery and freedom; that the new territories must be slaveholding or non-slavcbolding; that the bill will either place slavery there or exclude it thence, andthat in all probability it will establish it there. Further Foreign News per Niagara. The steamship Niagara arrived at Boston about half past five o’clock on Wednesday afternoon, bring ing tho European and Halifax mails, 92 passengers, and Liverpool dates as late ns the 15th instant. We give below an epitome of the intelligence con tained in our foroign journals: Case of Mr. Smith O'Brien.—In the House of Com mans on Friday night, Sir L O’Brien called the at- tention of tho Government to the state of health and the treatment of hi« brother, Mr. Smith O’Brien, the couvict upon Maria Island, Van Dieman’s Land. The Hon. baronet stated that his health was suffering, and described at some length the regulations under which ho was placed, in consequence of having refused the indulgence of a ticket of leave. Sir G. Grey stated that Mr. S. O'Brien having posi tively refused a ticket of leavo, the Government of Van Dieman’s Land had no other course open to them than to adopt the regulations which they had taken, without neglecting tiicir duty ; but at the same time he had indulgences of which the other convicts were deprived i in factrevery indulgence had been shown him which the Government had in their power. The Exiled King of France.—The health of Louis Philippe is rapidly declining, and his symptoms are suoh as to cause the greatest anxiety regarding their immediate results. The ex-King arrived at the Vic toria Hotel, St. Leonards, about a month ago, Bnd has been confined in his room ever since. It is said that M. Guizot, M. de Salvandy, and M. Duchateil are about to pay l.im a visit. It appears also that the ex- King is anxious that several ot his ancient Ministers should assemble round him before his death, and that sdite questions of great political importance will be discussed in that council. It fs said that he intends in his will to lay down to his family the course which he wishes them to pursue after his death. The French Legitimists say that his wish is in favor of a re mnciliation with the cider brands of the Bourbons. Ini mi. Visit of the Queen to Cork.—The Cork Examiner states, on the authority of a correspondent, “officially connected with the Government, that it is the intention of her Majesty and Prince Albert to vis it Cork on the 2d of August, for the purposo of wit nessing tlie regatta.”' Great Decrease of the Repeal Rent.—The rent at the last Repeal Association meeting, including 11s from Wigan, Lancashire! was only Gil 19s 8d. Kir. O'Con- nclfbas issued his last appeal or threat to close Con ciliation Hall. He declares, however, that they will continue to keep the doors open to the latest mo ment, until they are pushed out by those who claim the rights of landlords over them. O'GonneWs Mansion.—The town of Killamcy was posted, last week, with bills announcing a sheriff's sale, to take place at Derrynane Abbey, the residence of tite late Daniel O'Connell. The sale was to be at the suit of soine half dozen creditors, and the shciifTs name, appended to the placard, was “O'Connell.” France. Gift from the Pope to the President, Napo leon.—The Pope has sent a gift to the President Lou is Napoleon, consisting of a superb missal, decorated with paintings, and having on the cover a gold cross which once belonged to Charlemagne. France and the Sandwich Islands.—The Courier du Havre states that Mr. Judd, the envoy from the Sandwich Islands, who had visited Paris with the ob- pet of demanding an indemnity from the French gov ernment, for damage done to the fortifications of ^"Honolulu by the French squadron, and the capture and detention of several steamers, has loft without having succeeded iuhis mission, except that both par ties have accepted the good offices of the English gov eminent Spain.—The Spanish Government, alarmed at tho first accounts respecting Cuba,has ordered out a num ber of war steamers. It is said Spoin is assisted by Eng land, and that a dozen first class steam frigates are to be immediately built of 1,400 tons each, and of 500 horse power. The armament of each vessel will be fourteen guns. They are to be got ready as soon as possible. Four are now on the stocks in London, four are to be built in other English ports, and tlie re mainder in Spain. Mandalay & Co., the celebrated London engineers, are now mannfecturing the ma chinery for these steamers. Portugal.—The Portuguese government have re cently attempted to stop ti.qshipmeut of port wines from Oporto to the United Stirees, on British account, by requiring ccrtifiiates—to the Portuguese govern ment—that such wines are not to be re-exported to England under certain heavy penalties. It is said in commercial circles here that it will betmpossiblet j carry out this meaure, which has caused much ex ritemeut in Oporto. The United States frigate In dependence, Commodore Morgan,is reported en route to Lisbon, “to demand}of the Portuguese govern ment a settlement of the claims of the American gov ernment." Severe Storm in Cumberland, Md—-New Hotel Blown Down-Stables Burned. Baltimore, Juno 18. A severe storm passed over the town of Cumber land yesterday which, in its progress, threw down the walls of a large hotel in course|of erection, crush ed tiie,Rail Road Depot adjoining : and tlie lightning striking the stables of the National Road Stage Com pany, they were entirely consumed. The horses and coaches Were fortunately all saved. The entirqJflfccaDnot be yet estimated. iirtU^fctca rhHsuie inner. In Washington Gossip. The South united in opposition to New Mexico ; E: citement increasing; Mr. Clay against the admis sion of New Mexico ; ToOm organizing an armrj; The President's determination to resist Texas by force; Mr. Foote speaks of blood shed in July Southern IVhigs abandoning the administration President's answer to Congress; Gen. Houston to take command of the Texan army; Government troops sent to New Mexico. The N. Y. Express, commenting upon late advices from \\Jnshingtoh city, says: We are confidently assured that the great body of tho South will show a firm front tq her admission ns a State. The ultra Whigs,—Clingman, Stephens & Co.—will make ‘war upon her to the knife,’ and in so ,| doing help as much as possible to prejudice the e mse of her competitor for the State Sovereignty— California. The excitement is very great, and the points at issue between tho two sections appear to be multiply ing every day, instead of diminishing. Mr. Clay, it is said will resist the application of Now Mexico to be admitted into the Union, and so will Mr. Benton, The correspondent of tho N. Y. Commercial Ad vertiser says It is no longer doubtful that tho President is deter mined to defend with all tlie powers of his high office tlie territorial rights of tho United States in New Mex ico. It is now no secriit that he will, if necessary, re. Bistby force any armed attempt of the State of Texas to seize upon that province. The time of tho con- ThBRuie light begins to have a very huinbuge- eus glimmer, In relation to the story about lighting tlie Astor House in New York, the Courier and En quirer says it has tlie authority of Mr. Stetson for saying, that it is a humbug. Two or three gentlemen of that city, hearing of tlie alleged discovery, hud tho curiosity to gp to Worcester to examine lj. They saw tlie light and the proprietor of the invention, who observed, to illustrate the cheapness of the light, that he could light tlie Astor House for ten cents a ■light. The gentlemen referred to said if he could do so, tlie proprietors of tiio Astor House would proba bly be very much obliged to him. And that's tho whole story. They made lie propositions, received none, and have no connexion with’the matter on either side or in any way. Curious EJfect of the Electric Light. A gentleman near Waltham Abbey wus experimenting a short time ago with the electric light, and having a wound in his left hand, lie touched the conducting wire with it, and at once felt ail irritation in Ilia hand, and it be- r came swollen und his body wus soon covered witli I template.^ inroad lias been designated by Senator * Foote in a general and miscellaneous tirade, to-day.

Mr. John Davis, of Massachusetts, addressed the Senate ut length in opposition to the bill. Mr. Davis, without concluding, yielded to a motion to adjourn. Mr. Clay expressed a hope that the Senate would agree upon a day to take tho question on the engross ment of tlie bill. He suggested Wednesday next Mr. Bell objected. He wished to give his views.— He and others wouldpiot be able to address tlie Senate if so early a day was fixed. Mr. Yulee laid on the table an amendment to tee bill.
