The Fugitive Slave Lnw-.Tlic South to be ' nui tie UcNponHible for its Repeal. The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Ex press, under date of 1st inet. says :— The lirst movement in Congress, of n grave orsc- rious character, will be a descent upon the Fugitive .Slave Hill, it is useless to disguise the fact, and what is more, the propaganda, acting through their lenders in both houses, will stand aloof, and refuse to succor the Northern friends of the!measure.— Exasperated by the loss of Georgia, prostrated by the loss of Tennessee, and farther embittered ,in their defeat by the stern patriotism of a groat portion of the people of Mississippi, they will seek any pre text to efleet secession. even to voting with the Se- wnrdites for the repeal of the law. Tacit consent is equivalent to u vote,and the Mississlppian has declared In advance, backed by the disuniunists here, that the worshippers at the shrine of South Carolina Treason will not nositato to observe such neutrality. If they do, well knowing there is a powerful Union party in botli branches—a majority of the North attracted by motives higher than demagogism—upon them lie the responsibility of what ensues ; FOR WITHOUT THEIR AID, I DOUBT WHETHER THF. ACT CAN HE MAINTAINED. The majority will never lend its vote to a section which scorns tho proffer of fraternity, and prefers to welcome the embraces of a class which essays hourly to terminate our history in u monument oi ruins. It will be seen tbat wbile the writer admits there will be an attack upon tho Slave Bill, he endeavors,in advance, to make the South responsible for its re peal. “The MAJORITY WILL NEVER LEND ITS VOTE TO THE SOUTH WHILE IT SCORNS THE PROFFERED FRATERNITY.” How signifi cant. Washington, Dec. 1.—Cabinet in Session— Genxbal Quitman.—While I write the Cabinet is in Session, and it is said, (not rumor merely) tbat the subject of its deliberations is no less a personage than his Excellency, Governor General Quitman. The atory goes, that the District Judge Of Louisiana, be fore whom the Buit against the General is brought, has made application to the President for ad'-ic* and the opinion is advanced—I do not avow it—that tho Cabinet will decide to grant tbeCourtthe Corpora's guard asked for, in the event it be needed to induce the General’s attendance in New-Orleans. The Spanish Minister, De La Barca, has been ur ging matters the past week quite strenuously ; and it is ns much at his instance ns tho federal authorities of Louisiana, that the requisition is made. De Ln Barca is determined to push the suit to extremes; he has sufheient testimony ready to support the accu sations now pending niul will bring it out the mo ment the Hotspur Disunionist can be captured and arraigned for trial. He therefore appeals to the President and demands •ompliance with the treaty obligations of 1818; and the Court backs him because it contends Quitmnn has algo been guilty of high treason, in furnishing arms to the enemies of the Republic Ac. Ac. Sic. 1 do not ask you to repose implicit faith in these state ments, for ldo not; but It is manifest tbat De Barca is cross about the affair, and Quitman is in a tight place for an act that in some countries, would bring his head to the block N. Y. Express Matarday Mornlnu- December 7, 1850. Largest Circulation in the City I! The Weathek.—For some weeks past, we have hod remarkably mild weather. During thepast, few days, it lias been very foggy, and the sky lias been steadily overcast with clouds. In consequence ot the fog, the Charleston boat, with the Northern mail duo on Thursday night, did not arrive until one o’clock, yesterday afternoon. A case fob the Police.—On Thursday afternom a lady, while walking in the street about sunset, was assailed by a negro boy, who seized tho purse which she held in her hand, and made several violent efl'orts to wrest it from her. ln the struggle the villain pull ed the lady to tho ground ond bruised and scratched her fingers, around which tho purse was wrapped- The screams of tho lady soon brought several per sons to her assistance, who, however, did not reach- the spot until her assailant had fled. The' desperate rascal should be sought out and condignly punished for his audacity. We recently heard of another case in which a young Miss, while returning from school, was as saulted in the street by n black fellow, who detained her tor some time, submitting her to annoyance and indignities. The police should be on the lookout for such fellows. When caught, they should bo made examples of. Florida Legislature.—The Legislature'of Flor ida met at Tallahassee, on the 35th ult. The Gover nor’s Message is stronger on the subject of Southern Rights than was expected of him. Ho says “nothing is surer than this government must eventually fur nish a faithful reflection ofthe established opinion of a popular majority, and this fact considered in con nection with the manifestations of Northern senti ment upou their obligations under the federal com pact, justifles a serious : concern for the perpetuity 0| the Union. The repeal or essential modification of the law for the recovery of fugitive slaves, will in my judgment, ho tantamount to a formal record and notification of the unwillingness of our Northern brethren longer to abide by the Constitution ofthe United States." -“'i Governor asks from the Legislature authority to call a convention of the people of the State, “iu the event of a repeal ofthe Fugitive Slave Bill, or the consummation of any other aggressive measure." Proclamation of the President of the State of San Salvador The President of San Salvador has thought it necessary to publish a proc lamation to the people of that State, to tho States ot Central America, and the other nations, in defence of its position in refusing to yield to the British Consul, Mr. Chutfield, tho right he assumes of forcing upon itono of his functionaries, and of snatching from the power of the State one of its subjects, by clothing him with official dignity. The proclamation is as fol lows: States of Central America—The People of San Sal vador !—You see the position of this government,the systematic aggressions of His Honor, the Consul,co c- bined with the ever hostile power of Gauteraala, to wage an unjust war founded on vain pretences, against the State which hns now placed itself at the head of the Central American Union, the object of their odium and common aversions. Our cause and our stand ara unfounded upon the honor and the rights of tho various nations of America. You see, then, tho necessity ot defending your territory, your existence, the liberty of yourselves and your children. * These 1 will defend at the cost of my life, in spite of the accustomed arrogance of His Honor the Consul.' 1 have more than oncp given proofs of a prudent and conciliatory spirit, by taking all the steps I have tfihught proper to the obtaining of an honorable, rea sonable and equitable arrangement; the only result, however, has been to bring upon San Salvador new outrages, new oppressions and new aggressions. The time has come when we muBt show to the world the situation in which we find ourselves; we are to learn if the efforts that have been made by us, and by this great and heroic people, are to prove vain and fruit less ; we are to leikn whether independence be a pos sible truth, or an intangible illusion; if, in fine, the couso'ina hope of seeing a common country rise for ward and glorious by the efforts of her children, has vanished before the blasting breath of internal fuc- tia:" allied to foreign hate. But I feel confident, every Salvadorian, who loves truly Central America, must feel his heart throb with indignation at the sight of the outrages made upon hU country. People of Central Americal I have thought it a part ol my duty to make you aware of the line of con duct followed by the Consulate of Great Britain, in its intercourse with us; this conduct could not, consist ently with our dignity,be met with more freedom and reserve, i shall he happy, if it meets with your pru deuce and approbation. (Signed) Doroteo Vasconzelos. SaN Salatdob, Sept. 3,1850. Louisville, Nov. 30.—A Terrible? Tornado— Seventy or Eighty Houses Blown to Pieces— A Great Number op Lives Lost.—One ofthe most appaling and destructive tornadoes which has been experienced in the Mississippi valloy for several years occcurred about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. It swept over the town of Cape Girardeau, Mo., situated on the Mississippi river, just below St. Louis and demolished some seventy or eighty buildings, many of them the finest and principal business houses in the place. The Baptist and catholic churches, and tho Catholic convent ware destroyed. Two of the large and splendid telegraph masts belonging to the St. Louis and New-Orleans telegraph company, were cracked, shivered and brought to the ground with as much ease as though they liad been pipe stems. The steam boat Saranac,, No. 2. which had just rounded to at the wharf, had her upper works com- vu off, and several persons on her were nred, and some, it is probable, were wharf boat was likewise blown from her moorings, and almost irreparably injured. In order that you may judge of the tremendous vi o)euce ofthe storm, I will state that a cow was uncer cmoniously lifted off her feet on terra firms, and de posited in the top of a tree, sixty feet from the ground. ^M'ho loss of life by this awful visitation cannot as yet he ascertained, but it is certainly very great; as numbers are doubtless buried beneath the rnius of fallen buildings. There are also a great many per sons who are sdiioualy injured, and some of them are so crippled and maimed that they will never re cover from the effects. The town is literally torn in pieces, and looks truly wobegone. Many citizens who wore this morning to he seen with light hearts and Smiliug faces, are to night wrapped either in the arms of death, or else are weeping ior their friends who have been thus untime ly swept away. Philadelphia, Dec.fid, 1850.—The mail pilot line from New York due here last evening did not arrive till three hours after the usual time, in consequence of an accidental collision of two trains, near Bergen HilL The Paterson train left Jersey city immediately after the Philadelphia mail train, mid the latter hav ing ti> stop suddenly, the Paterson train was driven into the rear c.ir, forcing it into the preceding ones, and throwing several of them from tne truck A tnan, named Wilson, was crushed and left at Newark in a hopeless condition. Twoothermeu and a child, were seriously, if not fatally injured, nnS many pas- seniors wwe hurtieilby the upsetting of the stoves. The Nicaragua Affair. On our first page to-day, will be found an interest ing article on the subject of British encroachment on the territories cf Central America. This matter is attracting considerable attention at this time in ofH. cial quarters, and it is expected that the Conduct of the English Government in reference to the Mosquito teritory, will he brought before Congress at pt early day. It was perhaps in view of the contingences which might arise in this connection, that President Fillmoke expressed himself so explicitly in regard to international policy. From the tone of his mes sage, we infer that he is not inclined to interpose tor the protection of the Nicaragua Government. Iu his nllusion to the treaty, it will be recollected that he re commends the adoption of "peaceful measures” for the purpose of "harmonizing conflicting claims to ter ritory in that quarter." Commenting upon this matter, the Philadelphia Bulletin says :— When the Nicaragua treaty was negotiated, by Messrs. Clayton and 'Bulwer.it was on the supposi tion that England did not wish to appropriate terri tory in Guatemala, and thnt al! ahe required was a guarantee that tile United States would exercise equal forbearance. It was on this basis that the treaty was signed. But now, Great Britain, instead of evacuating the Mosquito territory, exhibits une quivocal evidence ofholding it permanently, and is building, at Greytown, public stores and offices on a quite extended Beale. As if to render her intentions unequivocal, Chatfield, the agent, in his late corres pondence with the Nicaraguan Minister of Foreign Affairs, does not hesitate to assert thnt. by tile Clay ton and Bulwer treaty, the Mosquito kingdom is ac knowledged, and consequently the British presence at Greytown ondorsed. Thus there can be little doubt that England intends to hoid that post, by which all communication across tile peninsular be comes practically impossible, unless with her con sent. The persistance of Great Bitain in retaining pos session of Georgetown is, however, in direct viola tion ol the treaty. Sofar from the United Spates ac knowledging the Mosquito Kingdom, in the sense as serted by Mr. Chatfield,it was emphatically stipulated that neither England nor this country should fortify cither Costa Rica.Nicaragua, the Mosquito Const, nor any other part of Central America. Nor was this all As if not to leave a loop-hole for evasion it was also specifically covenanted that neither power should exercise or assume any domination over either ot those territories. The language is plain and un equivocal. Not a peg is left in the treaty to hang au evasion upon. The United States is fully prepared to carry out In good faith, the stipulations of the contract; but Mr. Chatfield mistakes our national character if he supposes we will submit to he juggled in this matter. The people of this country want no territory in Cen tral America. But they will not allow Great Britain to obtain a footing there. On this point we believe North and South, East and West, to he unanimous. Much less will they submit to be cheated, in the way Mr. Chatfield proposes. If the British govern, ment does not disavow the proceedings of its agent there wilt be trouble, as the temper of Congress” on its reassembling, will show. The time has passed by whon the United States call he trifled with. Thissubject assumes the more importance because by advices from San Juan to the 2d of November, the practicability of constructing the ship canal no long er admits of a doubt. An excellent route has been sur veyed from the lake to the Pacific, by which the western canal will be only twelve miles long. Any rttempt to build the canal will be useless, however it' England is allowed to establish a fortified post on the Mosquito coast, and thus hold the key to thisgreat commercial enterprise. This subject may possibly be turned to amount, this winter, by the politicians who may desire to divert tho public mind Irom the domestic strifes in which the country is engaged. Whatever comes of it, President Fillmore does not seem disposed to bluster about it, hut indicates in his message, ado- sire to settle those points left unarranged by Mr. Clayton, by a supplementary treaty. This, how- ever, may be difficult to accomplish, os John Bull is not in the habit ot quietly relinquishing advantages gained by diplomacy. The City of Venice—Venice is a Inhvrintli — There is no city like it in al] the world. iFalwnys wusan unintelligible place, and itis still unintelligible It contains a population of 115.000 inhabitants, located In 27,918 houses. Thero are 112 religious establish ments, though at one period thero were no less than 228. Of bridges chiefly of marble, there are 30G, nnd small communicating streets no less than 2,108. The city is seven miles in circumference. The grand ca nal is nearly 302 feet wide ; other canals are wide enough, but the widest street is not more than 10 or 12 feet Irom house to house, and the majority do not exceed 8. Horses are unknown, and the larg est auitmtl to be seen is udog. The foundation of the city commenced in 402, when the Venitinns fled to tho Lagunes, before the invading army of Alnric.llicGoth. 1 lie city is built upon 72 small islands, with pile and stone foundations for the buildings. The church of “Santa Maria do ln Salute” was constructed in 1531. is a monument of thanksgiving for the cessation ora great pestilence, and rests upon one million two hundred thousand piles. This church contains 125 statutes. Itis said, that in Venice there are thousands who never saw a hill, or a wood, or an ear of corn growing, or a vineyard, or a green field, or even a horse and carriage. The canals are traversed by gondolas, a species of canoe, tvvelity-five feet long, with a little cabin in the centre, sufficiently spacious for the accommodation of from 5 to 10 persons — These gondolas and their furniture nnd equipments areall black, and when they move upon the water, they have the appearance of floating hearses. The black cloth which is thrown over the cabin top is rringed with tassels, and exectly resemble) a funeral path—Cor. If. l r . C-immercial 'Advert iser. Movements in New Orleans.—We gave an ac count yesterday, ofthe proceedings of a great Union meeting held in New Orleans An the 27th ult. We see by the papers that amass meeting was to take place in that city, on Saturday eveniuglast, "ofthe Democracy nnd of all citizens, friendly to the main tenance ofthe Constitutional Rights ofthe South."-— In alluding to the call for this meeting, the Delta, an able advocate of Southern Rights principles, sayo :— The object of this meeting, we understand, is to af ford those who could not acquiesce in the St. Charles Resolutions, to lay down their platform. We trust in doing so, they will exhibit a more catholic spirit than the committee of the St. Charles meotiug. Wo commend to the consideration of thoso who may bn entrusted with drafting theresolutions, tho platform which we recommended to the St. Ohnrlos meeting, and which has carried everything before it iu Geor- gia. The platform recommended by the editor, was thnt portion of the “Union and Southern Rights' platform of Chatham, which reads as follows : “That if Congress shall uudertnke to legislate aggres sively upon our rights, by the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia, or tho interdiction of the slave trade between the States,or the enactment of the Wilmot proviso, or the repeal ofthe Fugitive slave law—the people of Georgia will not submit, but wili with united voice resist, though that resistance Bhould create a dissolution of tho Union." On tills platform, says tho editor, we are willing to stand,—all our citizens were willing to stand, hut it did not suit the designs of tliise who wished to turn the Union meeting to party purposes. 1 Vc were com pelled to declare that we approve the Compromise ere we could get admission into the Union temple. sir- We hnvo been informed that some ofthe Peach trees in the neighborhood ofthe city, are put ting forth blossoms. They must have mistaken the mild weather for the return of spring. SHIPWRECK.-The brig Alabama, Capt. Westfeldt Irom New York, with an assorted cargo for Mobile, went ashore at Mobile Point, during the heavy gale on Wednesday night. The vessel has bilged and is a total loss. A portion of her cargo, some of it in a damaged state, has been saved. The SurnEME Court.—Tho Supreme Court of the United States met oil Monday, in their room at the capital, at Washington. Justices McKinley, Wayne, Nelson, and Woodbury, were present, Asikrican Claims on Portugal.—A Lisbon cor respondent of the London Times states that Mr. Clay waa, according to last accounts, at Paris, en- route for Lisbon, to liquidate a number of American cluims recognised by tho Portuguese government lust July, and to make arrangements for the arbitra tion of the French government iu the case of the General Armstrong. New Orleans, Nov. 30.—A hill hns passed the Mississippi Legislature appointing next November ns the time tor holding the Southern Convention,—the Delegates to he chosen next September. The Anti Compromise Meeting is to ho held here tonight,—Senator Soule will nddreis the meeting.
