Mr. Bouton thinks it is to bo a power of vast importance in com merce or in war. Jenny Lino. The New fork papers state.thaj Jenny Lind's Fifth Concert, on Saturday niglit last, was attended by a larger number ol persons thnn cither of the previous ones, and that the enthu siasm was unbounded. Jenny, seems, however, to have fallen under the displeasure of one or two of the New York editors, who are saying all manner of unkind things about her, mid, her manager, Mr. Bar. num. Wo have within I at day or two past read ar ticles in certain New York prints.in reference to them that have caused us to blush for tho character of the American press. Our correspondent Charlemac snys, it is rumor ed' 11 New lurk, that Jenny has .expressed her un willingness to sing ill a Slave State. VVe can’t believe , it. We have joo high an opinion of her good sense, to suppose tuat Jenny would make such a Judy of herself. She is, however, closely beset by mendicants ... and canting fanatics—the Hutchinsons. havo been to see her, and whined out some of their Abolition doggerel to her, and there is no telling what influence bad company may have upon her susceptible nature. She would not be the first one thut had been ruined | ^ w The mails for Havana, Chngres, Panama California and Oregon, to go by the steams hip Ohio, will be closed at II o'clock thla morning. CongreBMionnl Proceedings. The proceedings of Congress on Monday last wero not of sufficient interest to ho given in detail. In the Senate, Mr. Benton failed in his effort to obtain an appropriation todefray the expense of experiments with Protesaor Page's electro-magnetic engine. One thousand dollura was voted to purchase copies of John Adams's writings. Mr. Dawson moved an item, paying $2,000 mileage to the Senators from New Mexico. A debate followed, in which Mr. Foote opposed it, and pronounced the interference of the late ad ministration in New Mexcim affairs ns infamous. Mr.* Downs, Mr. Ewing and others defended the measure showing that New Mexico stood on the same ground with California. Mr. Halo said there was one difference. Cal if or nla got in and New Mexico did not. Mr. Dickinson said there was no time to go over that ground again. Mr. Rusk would not discuss the subject now ; but at a proper time, ho would sluw that Texas was act ing within tlie pale of the cogitation. gg The amendment was rejected—yeas 23, nays 24. Other unimportant amendments to tho General Appropriation Bill were considered. The House of Representatives occup led the day In the discussion of amendments to the Naval Ap propriation Bill. The amendment prohibiting flog, ging on board tho national vessels was passed by a vote of 131 ayes, to 29 uays, after which ihn Bill was passed by a vote of 111 ayes to 48 nays. An amend ment had been passed abolishing the spirit ration, and another prohibiting the officers from using wine or spirituous liquors while on duty, except when pre scribed as mediciue. Both those amendments were, however, superseded by the one prohibiting the lash So our tars are y et to huve thei r grog and the officers their wine. This is us it should bo. Let them es tablish as many temperance societies as they will- let every muster-roll bo headed by tile Temperance Pledge; but pass nodegrading legal restrictions,which could only abridge the liberty of our sailors', without effecting the least possible good. We think Jack would be mnefi more willing to do without the lash than his grog, especially in rough weather. The London Brewers. The New York Mirror «ays a movement is on foot, in that city, towards raising a sum of money, for the purpose of making a complimentary present to the operatives employed in the brewery of Barclay, Perkins & Co., Loudon, as « testimonial of respect for their manly reception of Marshal Haynuu.—We always pronounce this name 4|whwl __ The New York Herald says: —From accounts continually coming to hand from the East, there is no doubt that the potao crop of that section baa been very seriously injured. The disease has at tacked the plant in all parts of the United States and the British Provinces ; but the effect has been more disastrous in the New England States than in any etbor part of the country. Important from the British Wert ladles. THE GROWING COTTON IN JAMAICA. ENGLAND ABANDONING HEM COLONIES. We find the following letters in the New York Evening Express ot Monday. They develop a sad state of things In the British Islands. Kingston. Jainaicn, Sent. 14,1850. The weather for the last two weeks has been very unfavorable, but ns the manufacturing process has nearly closed on all tlio Sugar Estates, the plantors have not been so m uoh inconvenienced ns they other wise would be. The crop will bo greatly behind the yield of last year, which will cuubo hundreds of planters to forsake the culture of the cane, and adopt tile cotton plant, now so successfully tried here. On Green Pond Estate I inspected lust week, a Held of cotton, containing 20 acres, the whole of which was in a thriving and healthy condition. The appearance of the Ben Island plant is gratifying in the extreme, as the shrubs, though not above 3 feet high, are liter ally covered with brilliant blossoms,and give premise ot a lair reward to the agriculturists, and leaves not a doubt hut thut the experiment will result in cotton becoming the staple of this Island. The Southampton steamer arrived here a few days ago, and her nows is pregnant with evil, throwing all the inhabitants of the British West India Islands into gloom and dispair, notwithstanding the misfortunes of the present day. The Govenor of this Island (Sir Charles E. Grey.) and all others swaying British command in the West Indies, have received circulars from the Home Colonial Secretary of State, to the effect that utter the first day ot June, 1851, each colony will be com pelled to support its own military establishment, ns the authorities nt home deem it expedient to with draw the respective British force from euch Settle ment or Colony. Should this infamous threat lie carried into execution his Imperial Majesty ol lluyti will bo empowered to extend uml strengthen his em pire, ns not a white person, tor tlio short space ot a month, could, if inclined, remain with safety ill the Island. 'J'he Commnndcr-in-Chief of the North American and West India Stution (Earl Dumdonuld) has been recalled at the instance of Lord Ilowdon, British Minister in Madrid, and Vice Admiral Sir Charles Malcom appointed to be his successor. The latter officer is us known to be a favorite ut the Court of Is- nb el. The instructions cfhls government he will rigidly observe, and he has given assurance that the authori ties of Culm, can at nil times command himselt, his men, nnd his vt ssels. He is represented to lie a tar ot the Nelson schooil and unshuken in purpose. Tort of Stain, (Trinidad,) Aug. 21. Since I wrote you lust, most unwelcome news hns reached us from the Mother country, viz. tile propo sed withdrawnlofullthe white troops, leaving us only n mere handful ol black soldiers to take care of our lives; should thid bo carried into effect, I look for the most direful consequences; the teriblo scenes of San Domingo. &c„ will be enacted here. The bitter feel ing between the blacks and whites,that 1 noticed since my arrival here, is increasing daily, and an opportu nity ulone is wanted tor thefarmore numerous blacks to exterminate the few wh'tes remaining. Strenuous efforts are making to call the cnilous attention of the British Government to our deplorable condition and I trust most sincerely that they will listen.—A Short time, however, will decide. ***** Italian Affairs There is.snys the N. Y. Express, an important rumor relating to Haitian affairs, which if it turns out to be true, is likely to exorcise a fno- meutous influence in the politics of that part of Eu rope, which seems destined never to be freed from French or English intervention. Lord Palmerston, we Rre informed, has addressed to the court of the Vnticnn a most energetic note, in which he cautions it ngninst ndopting violent measures towards Sardi nia and persevering in the system hitherto pursued by the Pope with regard to the government. We wonder how those Englishmen who believe in the “repressive foreign policy” which Blackwood lays down ns the moBt proper for the British Government to piirsuein relation to Continental uffuirs, will relish this last “error" of tlio Secretary of Foreign Af fairs. If Englnnd is not disposed to lend a helping hBnd to such of her neighbors on the Continent as have been trying to infuse a little more liberalism into the antique tyrnnies under which they are groan ing, Lord Palmerston, nt least, shows a disposition to use fair pltiy. Texas Crops. The corn crop around San Antnnio and New Braunfels is abundant. It was much need ed. New cotton has been sent, into Houston. The corn crop is fully mntured around Bastrop, nnd yields well—cotton very promising. One more rain nud every planter would make more thnn he could gather. This was pretty much the case throughout the .State. The sugar crop will probably full short of last year in proportion to the amount planted, but the aggregate will be greater, and yield per acre suf ficient to satisfy all reasonable hope. Around Victo ria the cotton was very promising, and the bolls ma turing and opening fast. The planters busily engag ed in "piekINg. No sign of the worm. Better crops would be mude than tlliving the Inst live years. Caft. rarker II. French. The Victoria (Texas) Advocate affirms that Cupt. Parker II. French did, him self, draw nnd negocinte the forged draits on tlio house of Howland & Aspinwall New York. Rejoicings. In Boston, on Saturday last, a nntion. al salute of one hundred guns was tired on behalf of both political parties, without distinction of parly,in testimony ofthej iy of her citizens In the fact yiat tho slavery agitation was over in Congress. The Boston Advertiser, alluding to this demonstra. tiou, snys: “In this joy we have no doubt a great majority of the people, not only of this city, but ol the Common wealth, cordially participates. These measures are cordially approved because by the adoption of the entire series, they accomplish, as an incidental effect, a great national object which is far more important to the country atlargc than the specific benefits proposed, from the several acts taken individually. Rev Henry Ward Beecher, who returned from Europe in the steamer Asia, publishes an article over liis acknowledged -ignature, in the Boston Indepen dent, oi llmrsdny ot last week, which contains charges against the proprietor of the Cunnrd lino of steamers, which seriously impeach his civility nnd good manners, if nothing more. Mr. B. says that there were nine clergymen on board and that Mr. Cunnrd who came out in tho steamer to Halifax, re fused to allow any one to preach except those of the Episcopal Church and of the Established Church of Scotland. We copy the following paragraph from the letter:— On the second Sabbath Mr. Cnnnrd invited a Trcs- byterinn clergyman of the Established Church ot Scotland to preach, after the service had been read. Every one was rejoiced that this worthy gentleman had been permitted to preach ; but it wus asked upon rvhut considerations the rule liud been broken, and why a Scotch Presbyterian had been permitted to preach, hut American Methodist clergymen, or Presbyterian, or Congregational had been forbidden? Mr. Cuuuni quite lost his temper under such ques tionings. Tho gentleman from Boston said iu the most friendly manner to him thut such an arrange ment was calculated to produce ill feeling towards the Cunnrd lino among Americans, who were quire unused to such restrictions upon the right of reli gious worship. Mr. Cunnrd replied very tartly that ne knew very well that Americans would patronize their own steamers (alluding to Collins line) ns soon as they had as much confidence in their safety ns they hud in his ; that it made him angry to have such intimations held out for threats ; nud he added, in so many words, that if Americans did not choose to go irr his ships, “ let them stay nwuyl" lie afterwards repeated the fame remark to the writer, in the pres ence of several others, and added that it'we did not choose to go in that line, “ we might go to h—11!" He said that he wished tho American'people distinctly to understand this. In that wish we so fully sympa thized, that wo thought it a duty to call the attention of tho public to this mutter. Manufacture of Corn Starch.—At Oswego, N. Y., there is a manufactory which turns out 40,000 pounds of what is said to be the whitest nnd most benutifu starch for all domestic purposes, for fhe 1 nuhdry or pantry, and consumes 200 bushels of corn per week. This new application of com may prove valuable to western farmers especially, ana create an increased demand for com, as starch is very oxtonsively used. Correspondence of the Daily Morning News. New York, Sept. 23, 1850. In nnd before tho opening overture at Jenny Lind’s concert on Snturdny night, tho audience were Sur prised by the tiring of cannons on the Bay, nnd their urprize wus not n little increased when it became known, that the Pacific had nrrived, giving the crown ing triumph to Collins’s Line, by making the short est passage on record—ten days, five hours and a hall from port to port. If the Cunarders can beat this—why then John Bull can take Uncle Sinn’s hat, and that it will be attempted,! feel assured. How ever, no fair trial ot epeedsCuu be mado, so long us there is a restrictive law, as regards the pressnro of steam to be used, unless indeed, an arrangement be made between the parties, that one of Collins steamers shall make one voyage, with only the same quantity that the Cunarders are allowed, propotionutcly of course, to the difference of tonage. I wish the ques tion were decided, so that we might really know to which the palm belongs. There are long fnces nt the Custom House again to-day, as it is rumored that the .Senate will not act on Mr. Maxwell’s nomination, nnd in that case the com mission expires, and tho President must make nno- tner nomination. He may re nominate Maxwell, but I hardly think that probable, nfter the significant con duct oi the Senate, nnd knowing the fact, that all tho New York Delegation ure opposed to him, as the new man, will of course, have friends to oblige; of course u great many of Maxwell’s men will have to walk the plunk. Thus we go—life is a regulnr see saw—now wo go up, up, uppy, and now we go down, down, downy. The Drury trial is not crcntiug much excitement nt present, and it seems to be the general impression that the jury will fail to agree, for the second time, and then the discharge' ot the accused will he de manded. Warner, 1 guess, has gone to Europe, and a sale of his effects is to take place this week, lie has so fixed his affairs, that his wife cannot touch any of the property. I understand tliat every ticket has been sold for Jenny Lind’s concert to-mor' ow night.—there will be a greater crowd than ever, 1 expect. I viewed the immense mass of people, from the balcony, on Sat urday niglit, and the spectacle was grand mid iinpo sing. Jenny visited the Herald establishment this morning, and it is astonishing how quicKlv the news spread. In a few minutes, there wus a crowd of se veral hundred persons, completely blocking up the street; nud shouting, und hurrahing like mud when she app nred. It was with great difficulty that she en tered her carriage, and when it drove off, it was fol lowed by tho exc ted inob. Gratifying as such popu larity must be, it nevertheless, must he excediniily unpleasant. She leaves here on Wednesday for Boston, by the Fall River routs',but will return early next week and will not leave New York .again, for some time ; hut gives a long series of concerts ; probably til ty. Mr. Barnum lias had several applications, to take Jenny to various second and third class cities ; but he has invariably refused, unless ho is guaranteed from $8,000 to $10,000. So the good people of Sa vannah, know at whut cost they can hear the nightin gale,and regulate themselves accordingly. By the by Cl though, I see it intimated in a Richmond paper, that she refuses to sing in a slave State. I dont know if it bo so or not, but it hns not been so stated here. The amount of specie shipped from this port last week was $175,079—total since January 1st $5,501,• 689. The Onderdonk affair will be agitated again this week, ns the Episcopal Convention assembles on Monday next. It is rumored that the Bishop will resign, provided he he allowed to name his successor. There will bo another exciting discussion, in which Ministers of the Gospel will join ; and become as in temperate as the laity. It would be better in many respects, if these meetings were private. A double expedition is talked of, to annihilate the black Eippcror of Ilayti, mid capture Cuba ; and I believe the rumor is not altogether groundless. They are talking of annexing Brooklyn und Wil- linmsburgh to New York, nud placing them all under the same Government. There is also a talk of con veying the Croton Water to Brooklyn,through Gutta Perclia tubes submerged in the East river. It can be done doubtless, but tho expense would be some $108,000. It would tuke about 68,000 pounds of Gutta Pucha, and 24,000 lbs. of iron for the job. The editor of the Police Gazette, is getting his hands full of busines, which is not by any means profitable—one suit of libel against him is on trial, and in whicli he will probably be cast in heavy dam ages; and not only he but the owner ot th'e press on which tlie sheet is printed, and the agents who sell it. This seems to he the law, so that if the editor he ir responsible, the libelled party can seek recompense from-every body connected with tho paper, who may be able to respond in damages. There is still hope of the recovery of tho Calhoun Statue, I hear, when the cotter diun is completed. The box is entirely embedded in sand, which is con stantly shifting by the action of the surf. Cotton speculators begin to look blank, at every arrival from England—the price is still depressing, and it i9 expected that it will be permanently so. Fortunes have been made during the past few months, mid fortunes will be lost by cotton, during those to come. The stock market has been exceedingly brisk, all kinds of stocks tend upwardly, outsiders and im bued with the spirit of gambling, and by and bye there will be a downfall. CHARLEMAC. New and Important Discovery in the Manufacture of Iron. The Pittsburg Post has a letter giving an account of a discoveiy made by a young man by the name of Adams, the Assistant Manager of tne Brady's Bend Iron Works, in Clarion county, in the manufac ture of railroad and merchant bars Iroin Coke metal. By the old method, the rails were ninije with charcoal pig; and would crack very much and would break with one or two blows. By Adams’ process iron can he made from eight to ten dollars per ton lower, mid of « superior quality. The process is not mentioned, but the quality of the iron produced is spoken of. The writer of the letter was shown a rail flint had been put to the severest test, by putting it, While hot, into cold wuter ; ufler which they tried to break it with u sledge hammer weighing 80 pounds. Forty blows wore given by fix men alternately, and they could not ev.n crack it. Tlie charcoal iron of the company costs from 18 to 22 dollars per ton; their “ Coke metal" costs only from 9 to 11 dollars per ton. The discovery has caused quite an excitement among the workmen, for they were under the im pression that the works would have to suspend on uccount of the low price of iron. PASSENGERS.

Lumber have been disposed of, at $22 for Bath and Machine, and $21 for Eastern. Two more vessels are in, bringing a further quantity. A cargo of good qualify Mobile steam-sawed has realised $26. SHOOKS, CASKS AND HOOPS.—There is very little enquiry us yet for Box Shooks on contract; tho last transactions were at 7 rials. The quotations we give below are based on the last sales of Shooks on the spot. The dernnud for Ilhd. Shooks is ns yet quite limited ; a small parcel of very superior Mo lasses was placed ut 18 rials. There are no Empty Casks in first hunds, butd- nlers have a large quanti ty in their stors. It may take some time therefore for the price to improve materially. The momenta ry wants of dealers in reguvd to Hoops have been supplied by some arrivals from Rhode island, which sold at $45 tor long and short, the quality not being very good. The accounts from the country respecting the Chole ra.are. somewhat more satis factory ; but the disease still lingers in several districts in the interior. Scarce ly any cases huve occurred lately iu the city. 1 HEIGHT^. The last charters to Europe were at £2.2i6 for email vessel to Cowes and a market, and at 16[ t . Liverpool.
