Ilia family now mourn the death Many of the Southern members who acquiesced of a fond husband and father.—Reporter, in the adjustment of the territorial questions, say that they would not have done it, had they believ ed tbe territory to be adapted to slavery. If they had Mieved that slavery could be profitably intro- daced m California, New Mexico and Utah they would, they say, have insisted on the recognitioi slavery therein. It is yet in he seen whethi nay not be profitably employed in California, and ifthey can be, California will be a slaveholding ““'' State; for the Constitution may be changed by a bare majority of the Legislature, and with the sanc tion of a bare majority of the voters. It experi ment!*, now in progress in working the veins of gold found in quarts rock, prove successful, slave labor will be found necessary. Large capital will be necessary for this operation, and labor will neces- tarally come under its control. In the washings and diggings, labor ia independent of capital. When these sources are exhausted, individual la bor will come to be prodoctive. The Fugitive Slave bill has not been acted upon by the House, but it is supposed that it will pass. Tbe hill of the Committee of Thirteen for the sup pression of the slave trade in this District—that ia preventing slaves from being brought here to bo sold out of the District—still lingers in the Senate, where it is found very difficult to unite the views of tho members upon its details. There was some doubt yesterday, whether it would pass. The abolitionists have begun very early in iheir threatened work of renewed agitation. Mr. Chase, of Ohio, gave notice, yesterday, of his intention introduce a kill providing for tho prohibition of slavery in the territories ol the United States—tlii ia the Wilmot Proviso revived—and for the pui pose of a rallying point at the elections in th Northern States; Mr. Seward also siezed upon hi firebrand and hurled it into the Senate. He mm ed a substitute for the pending bill providing fc the emancipation, with compensation to owners, of slaves in tho District. The Sonlhei were much incensed at this movement, and some of 1 tbe Northern Senators were provoked by its impn- | dence, and the mischief making spirit which dictat- jf ed it. They saw that it was for eflect Senate, bat in the Northern party poli design is to work up the Whig and Democratic patties and give free-soilism the ascendency. - Washington, Sept. 12. The California Representatives were admitted to their seats in the House yesterday. The last in the aeries of the compromise bills, passed by the Senate Committee of Thirteen, iaa hill to abolish the slave trade in this District. Thiebilt was taken up to-day. The debate and proceedings upon it were not of a comprising or conciliatory character. For two days, we have seen incendiary torches thrown into the Senate {with reckless or malicious intent from the North. Feelings quit* averse to conciliation have been thus rekindled. The old wonmls seemed be torn open afresh to-day. Of this I was nev so entirety convinced as I was to day. I had hoped that Northern men, alter the passage of tho Com promise bills, would cease to agitate the slavery question. I still think that among the people o( thl North agitation has been chocked as to all the mischievous questions, and propositions, originat ing in the North ; it ia believed the people poaed to drop them. It is still thought that they, aaa mats, will give up the questions, and throw the responsibility of raising them on their political leaders. The Northern political leaders madly pur sue their mad schemes, and with the purpose to ex cite tbe prejudices and arouse the passions of their constituencies. O" The New York Evening Post states that about one thousand tickets for Jenny Lind’s first Concert ware sold at auction atari avenge of about $10 each. The five thousand'‘to : be disposed of at private sale will probably bring" ‘kh hv^rige of $4 each, so that the proceeds of the first concert ill be but littlo short of $30,000. CO The London Chronicle states that within the last two years 140,000 Mormons have emi grated from Great Britain to the United States, most of them men of some means, from Wales and the Northern and Eastern part* of England; 2,500 left Liverpool in 1849, bound for the Great Salt Lake, by way of New Orleans. Barnum “Sold!”—A fellow with “a bit of brogue,” called on Barnum a few days since, and made him believe that an old colored litho graph of Jenny Lind, waa “ an oil painting” of nightingale—and for which he paid a high price. Oh, Barnum 1 Barnum! that you should oiled over at that rate I—Register. CO- Gen. Roger Jones, Adjutant General of the U. S.

Important Discovert.—The London Cbrono- Thermalist for June announce* the discovery of a substitute for the sulphate of quinine, which is rep- ted as being even a better medicine, and can be bought for one-tenth the price. If we remem ber rightfully, the French Academy has offered a liberal reward for such a discovery. OO- When Ohio had one Representative in Con gress, Virginia had 19. Now Virginia has 15 and Ohio 21. The man now lives in his plain frame house on the banks ot the Miami, who was lor ten years the sole Representative of Ohio, in the Con gress of the United States. ID” The Catholic clergy of Ireland have com menced holding a national synod, which is the first since tbe time of the Reformation. O' A Shark measuring nine feet in length and four and a half in breadth, was lately captured in the Potomac river. He waa caught in a sturge on net, and was not easily brought to shore. the Governor. The Civilian thinks that as the Legislature of Texas, under the Constitution has no authority to dismember the State or dispose of any part of her territory, the proposition of Congress to purchase (should it pass) ought to be submitted to the peo ple of the State for a direct vote. If the House of Representatives will now only strike out the odious proviso at the end of the bill, we think the people of Texas will be able to a wal low it. Judge Franklin, a member of the Senate, in a speech on the Santa Fe question made use of the following language: All just and great principles run parallel. When we claim a right for ourselves, we should do what is just to others. We claim the allegi ance ol the people of Santa Fe; and as a means of enforcing our jurisdiction there, I would first put it out of tbe power of those citizens to a plain of the State, and to charge it with any of injustice. I would place them on the same looting with other citizens from the date of the Declaration of Independence. I would concede them the lands they occupy. If they have perfect titles, I would confirm them in the same propor tion and way as those of other citizens; it imper- lect, within the same extent in which they have been confirmed to other citizens. I would pre serve their usages so far as they are not inconsis- with our laws, because they are familiar to Tbe Canada arrived out on the 26th «U. aX-King of the French, Louis Ph tbe 26th of August.

The conclusion to which our mind is irresistibly driven from all we have heard, is that if the cotton crop turns out two thirds of the average, it must be ited by good seasons throngh the balance of the fall. The recent storm was very violent in the counties of Merriwelher, Troup, Harris, Heard; &.C., and did a great deal of injuiy. It is said by old farmers to be a remarkable fact, and one hav- ig intimate bearing upon the final yield ot the crop, that since then, for the last two weeks, very *w forms have been produced, and very few blossoms have been seen in tbe fields, i corn crop is not as totally a failure as has been expected. It is true that much of it was leveled with the ground by the wind; but we think if farmers will be diligent, and gather it early, very little of what is made will be lost, and there will be enough to supply the wants of the country. —LaGrange Reporter. The Weather akd Crops.—Since our last, (says the Winyah Observer, of Wednesday last,) the weather bas been in a very unsettled state, the wind blowing from tbe North and East, with every indication of a September storm. On yesterday it was very cool, and the air resembled that of Octo ber. Tbe crops in the neighborhood of the town are being harvested. On the rivers we understand tbe harvest work is advsneing rapidly, and ere an other week the major part of our planters will have tbe golden seed in their barn yards. 93- Cotton Crop injured by the storm, but with a late fall, this section will make an average The corn crop will he sufficient to supply the wants of the country—weather fiue—country healthy.—Ala.
