ft, tU Editor of the Constitutionalist:
Washington, 1). C., March 14,1856.
Niice the organization of the House, no practi
or important legislation has been done in either
inch of Congress; the Senate having been en
in discussing the Clayton-1 tutwer treaty,
-.1 the violation of our neutrality laws by Eng
»nd; and the House on the resolution submitted
the Committee on Elections, asking lor authori
al o-'iid for persons and papers in relation to the
ntested seat of Gen. Whitfield, the sitting dele
■.:>! from Kansas, by (lav. Hesder.
On reading the debate on this question, it will
apparent to every candid and unprejudicial man
riot right and justice are entirely on the side of
’*!i. Whitfield; and further, that there is a la
ridable want of talent among the opposition
u mbers, and hardly any one of them who have
•yken, have made even a plausible argument.
One reason for this is, that they were elected to
V digress simply on account of their opposition to
Kansas-Nebraska act, the majority of them
n , v,T having been here before, and are not fully up
-..tfUamentary debate, and the principal cause is
thuUto' are the advocates of all the isms of the
Times, whit h is sufficient proof that they are defi
cient in brains.
Among the number of speeches made, I was par
ticularly pleased with that of the lion. Mr. Craw
ford, of your State. During the delivery of his
speech, he teas listened to with deep and earnest
attention, and his arguments and conclusions struck
me with particular force; being clear, plain, and
logical.
He started out with the proposition that Gover
r Keeokh had no legal right to contest the seal
s' (Jeneral Whitfield, and then reviewed ecria
„ the four points bv which Reeder founded his
,iiin, and clearly proved that the simple question
•■r the House to decide was whether Gen. Whit
fibld was legally elected under authority of law,
ami on the day tixed by the territorial Legislature
fr holding an election to send a delegate to Con-
E i—i—that admitting illegal votes had been cast,
. ill as Whitifbld had no competitor, he was dull
cteJ even if a majority of the people of the Ter
r Jid not vote for him. Mr. C. further proved
, (Jovernor Reeder’s mvn memorial that he did
r „,! claim to have been elected by authority of lav
in any called election by any authorized authori
ng ....for the lain, but was the leader of a revolu

lie acted with unfairness in attacking the report
when I was detained from the Senate b v ill health.
I would ask him within what reasonable time will
nia speech be printed?
Mond V Umb, 'l ’hink it will he published by
Mr. Douglas— It 1 can ask a postponement of the
question till Monday, I will reply to my colleague’s
speech on Tuesday.
Mr. Seward—Take your own time.
- - Douglas, quickly—l understand that game.
I ake your own time.” The Senator from Massa
chusetts took his own time to write and circulate a
libel on me about the time the Nebraska hill was
reported. I understood my colleague to say that
he corne here a Democrat.' That will be news to
the Democracy of Illinois, and is a libel on the De
mocracy of that State.
Mr. Crittenden here interposed, saving that the
debate was transcending the rules'of decorum.
The Senator had charged a libel on Mr. Trumbull.
(Sensation.)
.'Jr. Douglas—l should have been better satisfied
it the Senator from Kentucky, had, when the Black
Republicans denounced us in coarse terms, rebuked
them for want of courtesy.
Mr. Crittenden—To what do you allude?
Mr. Douglas—When they made vulgar, coarse
partisan assaults on the Democratic side of the
Senate.
Mr. Crittenden—lt was no more mv business
than that of others to call Senators to order for
personalties. This is not the place for vitupera
tion. It should be settled elsewhere.
Further colloquy took place, when the Chair de
cided that Mr. Douglas’ remarks were not per
sonal.
Mr. Douglas said that so far as he was advised
and believed, his colleague was the candidate of
the miserable sect of Abolitionists and Know Noth
ings, which are one and the same thing.
Mr. Crittenden—l wish the Senator to under
sjand that I co-operate with the American party.
Standing here as a gentleman and Senator in abso
lute independence and claiming all respect due to
honesty as a freeman, 1 repel with scorn every im
putation of that kind as intended to embrace me
and mv political associates.
Mr. Douglas explained- I spoke of what Know
Nothingism is in Illinois, and said it might be oth
erwise in the South. Every Know Nothing Lodge
in Illinois adopted the Abolition creed, and that is
the miserable faction that sent my colleague here.
The Senator from Kentucky misunderstood me,
else lie would not have conceived my remark as
personal to him.
Mr. Crittenden—The gentleman did not make
the qualification he now does.
Mr. Douglas—Every gentleman'must have un
derstood me as makiiig the distinction; l said noth
ing about Southern Know Nothings.
Mr. Trumbull—l will shall permit such remarks
us those from my colleague to pass unanswered.
II he means to say that I am or ever have been
a Know Nothing or connected with any secret
political organization, the charge is basely—l
will not violate the rules of the Senate, hut f will
sav untrue!
Mr. Douglas-—My colleague said that the rea
son why he did not accept, at Salem, my pro
position to resign our seats last year to test hv a
re-election whether be or 1 represent Illinois, was
that Governor Mattison would appoint mo and
mother Democrat to fill the vacancies. [ tell him
1 will sign ray resignation now to take effect at
the next meeting of the Legislature.
l said my colleague received every Abolition and
Know Nothing vote in the Legislature. He dare
i not deny that statement. M’hv equivocate?
In his further remarks, Mr. Douglas said that
Mr. Trumbull had become the Chief of Black Re
publicanism.
Mr, Trumbull 1 ask mv colleague to explain?
Mr. Douglas -Was not the gentleman voted for
by Abolitionists and Know-Nothings from all parts
of l lie State ?
Mr. Trumbull 1 tell him no, to his teeth. 1
never was a candidate of the Abolition or Know-
Nothing partv. 1 may have been voted for by
members of the American party with the gentle
man —hut, that I was their candidate, is not true.

The steamship Texas, Capt. Forbes, reached the
levee at dusk last evening, with the mails from
Vera Li nz of the btli inst.
We have full tiles of the Vera Cruz papers, the
I trueri 'ino and Pnu/c io, to the sth inst , hut no
thing whatever front the eapilal. From Ihc latter,
indeed, we are not to expect any, as the communi
cations between it and Vera Cruz are said to be
interrupted. The telegraph wires are etit, and the
revolutionists, we are told, intercept all correspon
dence, public or private.
If the report of the interruption is correct, there
must he strong revolution forces outside of the
city of Puebla.
And that there arc perhaps we should say that
there were, if we were in possession of all the
facts of the case- we have a startling proof in the
important fact that Gen. Uraga had surrendered at
Aculzittgo with no fewer than six thousand follow
ers. For the numbers, we have the authority of a
correspondent ; hut we have not been able to find
them stated in either of our Vera Cruz tiles. In a
supplement to its issue of the 28th tilt., the Pro
t/rexo published a private communication from (lie
President to Gov. La I,lave, front which the follow
ing is a translated extract:
I now have the pleasure of giving yon the im
portant news that a party, which left Puebla to
cover the entry of Uraga, was completely routed
in Fiaxcnla, its officers being taken prisoners; and
also that Uraga himself, with the whole of those
who were with him, without excepting a single
private, surrendered at discretion in the neighbor
hood of Tulancingo, where lie was besieged hi
forces of the Moreno brigade, under the command
of D, Sahas de Iturbide. Uraga and the chiefs
and officers taken prisoners are on the way to this
capital.
It appears that lliis was effected without a sin
gle drop of blood being spilt.
In the same communication President Comon
fort informs Gov. Ln Llave that the Congress
had confirmed the decree nominating him to the
Presidency, by a majority of seventy-seven votes.
In addition to the affairs above noticed, the Pro
greso notices several others favorable to the Gov
ernment. At Chautla, an advanced corps of the
revolutionists was defeated by Ghilardi’s troops :
Sagrada, their leader, being taken prisoner. It
was reported that on the night of the 2oth Febru
ary, the great body of Haro’s forces had left Pue
bla, nobody knew for what point; but we see, ns
vet, no confirmation. In connection with the state
ment, if is added that there were not more than
eight hundred or one thousand men left in the city.
At the capital everything was ready for the Pres
ident to leave on Wednesday, the 27th till., at the
head of nine thousand, besides the Ghilardi, Trn
conis, Gttloaga, Moreno and Villareal sections,
amounting to not less than six thousand more.
The Vemcruzinio of the Bill inst., acknowledges
the receipt, in Vera Cruz, of a letter from Pue
bla, dated the Ist inst., and in which it is an
nouticed that it was expected the siege about
to he put to the city by the Government forces
would open on the 3(1. The insurgents in the city
are estimated tit from seven thousand to eight
thousand in number. On the day of the date of
this letter all the forces between Situ. Mat tain, Tes
meluean and Puebla were awaiting the arrival of
the President.
The Vertcruzano dwells with the greatest satis
faction on the confirmation of President Comon
fort, and augurs the best results for the country.
Os course, the surrender of Uraga is regarded as
a desperate blow to Haro’s interests.

| forms us the officers of the revolters in the castle
j of San Juan de l loa, on the 13th till., had been :
I sentenced to he shot, with the exception of Salee- !
j do, who, it seems, was forced to be their leader, j
, and was the first to surrender. His punishment,
| our correspondent says, is tixed at ten years’ im
prisonment.
In addition to the Government successes above
reported, the Venicrusn.no, of the sth inst., gives
another, announcing the complete suppression of
the outbreak in Chiapas. The arms and munitions
of all kinds had fallen into the power of the Gov
ernment. Five insurgents were taken prisoners,
and one was killed.
With regard to the question of communication
i between Vera Cruz and the capital, the Veracrnta- \
, no, of the 6th inst., says that on that or the follow- j
| ing day, they would he re-established byway ot j

Later from Central America.
steamship Prometheus, Captain Churchill
from San Juan, arrived early yesterday afternoon!
Bv this arrival we have tiles of El Nicarague lt »>
published at Granada, to the Ist inst. The news
is interesting and important.
The Government of the Republic of Nicaragua
issued a decree, dated Granada, February 16th,
annulling the contract with the Nicaragua steam!
ship liue, or, more properly, the Accessory Transit
Company. The decree appoints a board of three
commissioners to wind up the affairs of the old
company, and to contract with other parties for the
instant commencement of a line of steamships to
the Atlantic States and California. The commis
sioners are Don Cleto Mayorga, Don Edward J. C.
Kewen, and Don George F. Alden.
.IS. JSkarayuiwte, ofFeb’y. 20d, has a long and
highly interesting article accompanying the publi
cation of the decree. It gives the reasons why the
decree was issued, why the property of the Acces
sory Transit Company is to he seized, makes some
curious developments, and some serious charges
against individuals, and winds up by a reference
to the bold and energetic policy which the Gov
ernment has pursued and intends to pursue. Al
though the article is long, we copy nearly the
whole of it, as follows:
“As the decree sets forth, the Government of
Nicaragua, in 1848, in its great anxiety to perfect a
junction of the Pacific Ocean with the'Gulf of Mex
ico, by means of a maritime canal or other speedy
method of conveyance, granted to the above com
pany, although under a different name, the right
to uu exclusive navigation of the inland waters of
this State for twelve years. This contract also in
cluded a specific right in the company to construct
a canal on certain terms therein set forth. At least,
these privileges are granted in the present charter,
though they may have been conceded at different
times. The company stipulated, however, to pay
this Government ten thousand dollars per annum,
together with ten per cent, of all nett profits of the
line. These conditions have never been fulfilled,
and therefore in its right, the Government annuls
the contract, and siezes the property to indemnify
it for the amount due by the company.
Two considerations have prompted the Govern
ment to tliis action, right and policy. The Acces
sory Transit Company failed and refused to comply
with its agreements, and therefore the Slate was
bound to see its interest and dignity respected •
the Company had threatened to suspend the line
and break up all communication with the ports of
Nicaragua, and therefore the State was interested
in seeing that this threat was not executed.
The ioss of what the Accessory Transit Compa
ny owes the Government is of small concern ; hut
it is of vital importance at the present time that
the line of communication between California and
the eastern world should be maintained unimpair
ed and regular. Thus, in the pursuit of its duty
and its policy, the country has done this act ; and
the future will show to the people of Nicaragua the
wisdom of the step.
The Accessory Transit Company has not only
forfeited its foil'd, but its honor is' held in slight
esteem in the State at present. We are in posses
sion of convincing proof that the Company has not
only acted dishonestly, hut it has been guilty of
treason, if an incorporated body can be charged
with such a crime. Mr. Joseph L. White, with
Mr. Marcoleta, have not only violated the neutrali
ty laws of the United States, in shipping an armed
force of fifty men to this State, ready armed and
officered; but they have been guilty of fomenting
the internal discords that have prevailed in the
country. They had their policy to accomplish, and
had it not been for the interference of Gen. Walk
er it would have been successful. The fifty Her
mans sent to this State, and stationed at Castillo
first, and secondly at lfivas, were intended to ad
vance a grand speculation ; hut a new game was
made before Ihe hand was dealt out, and to-day
Messrs. Aspinwall and Vanderbilt are losers oil
the deal.
Both of the last named gentlemen -grand specu
lators in steamship and railroad stocks are now
interested in the Panama railroad stock. There is
a capital of $110,000,000 in that enterprise, which,
at present, pays a merely nominal per eentage. In
order to get out of that speculation, they know it
is necessary to break down the Nicaragua line, and
thus drive passengers via Panama. This would in
flate the value of their stock, and enable them to
sell out at a large advance. In order to accomplish
this object, the usual discords of this State have
been fomented, the best steamers withdrawn and
old ones supplied, the climate of the country tra
duced, and in fact everything done which coiild in
jure us. They have conspired with White and
Marcoleta to injure the line, and through the influ
ence of Mr. Vanderbilt, who holds a share in the
Nicaragua steamship stock, every impediment has
been thrown in the way of the transportation of
men to this State. In pursuance of this plan, it
has been the policy of the company to withdraw
its best boats from lliis line, and put them on the
Panama route. And quite recently, when Minister
French demanded a settlement in New York, Mr.
White refused to come to terms, and subsequently
wrote ft letter to this place, threatening, in the
event the Government did not come to a proper
settlement, that lie would break up the line.
We have no doubt, it this Government would
connive at the proceeding, that Vanderbilt and
Aspinwall would ultimately succeed in inflating
and selling their Panama stock, when tliev would
invest in the Nicaragua line ; but we have no dis
position to become parties to such a speculation,
nor are we interested that they should patronize
the enterprises connected with Nicaragua. Oihet
capitalists are willing to invest permanently in the
works of this country, and, therefore, w e are in
debted to none for the favor of their assistance.
This must eventually become tlie great and onlt
route from the East to the West, and the present
movement is hut calculated to accelerate that im
portant consummation.
A further result from this step must he the im
mediate organization of a line of steamers which
will merit and receive the patronage of the public,
at the same time that it wiil conduce great! , to the
benefit of this State. It is necessary that every
facility should be offered to emigrants desiring to
come to Nicaragua ; and in order to secure such a
consummation, the Government will hold an eve
upon any new company. .Thus arranged, the mis
erable failures that have hitherto marred the for
tunes of this line will be remedied and public
confidence restored. Prices will be regulated, here,
too, and not at the whim of a combination in New
York.
The speculators and politicians of the United
.States will ultimately open their eves to the exis
tence of an order of things somewhat in advance
of even their progress. A few more movements
on the part of Nicaragua, such as the suspension
of diplomatic relations w ith the United States, the
seizure of property belonging to a powerful com
pany, and the celerity with which these things are
devised and executed, w ill impress upon them the
fact that a government has sprung into being here
such as has never had an existence on this conti
nent■ bofere. No private interests are allowed to
combat w ith the settled policy of the Government,
but all ils ends are consummated with energy,
breaking down the personal aims that stand in the
path. The nation is the first object of considera
tion with the chief executive power, and while its
greatness can in no wise conflict with the just rights
of individuals, then speculations of men are not
allowed to interfere with any of its plans of im
provement and advance. Messrs. Aspinwall and
Vanderbilt may, therefore, reconcile themselves to
a considerable loss, for they have met an obstacle
that cannot be surmounted by money, nor outwit
ted by negotiations.
FI Niteiraynens' announces that Col. Kewen, in
company with one or two other gentlemen, had
left Granada for Virgin Bay to take possession, in
the name of (lie Government, of the property of
the Transit Company.
FI Xtmrugventu also announces that it is in pos
session of reliable information from Guatemala
that no fears of a hostile demonstration from that
quarter against Nicaragua need be entertained.

New York, March 15. The ship W in. Chamber
lain, from Liverpool at this port, reports having
supplied with provisions and water on the 4th inst”
the schooner E. W. Gardner, fortv-two days from
Charleston for New York. | The E. W. Gardner
Capt. Bourne, was cleared at Charleston on the
21st January by .Messrs. T. S. A T. G. Budd, with
1 07 bales of Upland Cotton, 130 tierces of Rice
8,714 bushels of Wheat, and 2,832 bushels of Corn’
and sailed on the following day for New York.
[Eds. Courier.
New York, March 15.—The Bank of the Repub
lic reports Produce drafts ou London as being
quoted at from 108al08%, and others as being un
changed. The supply was limited and the demand
was moderate.
New York, March 15.—Cotton is active and
holders ask an advance. The sales have comprised
7,000 bales at for Middling Orleans and o%c.
tor Middling Uplands. Flour is dull. 0,000 bush
els of Red Wheat changed hands at $1.75 per
bushel. Corn is worth 57 cents per bushel. Spirits
of Turpentine is drooping. In Rosin no business
was transacted. Rice is quiet, and the sales com
prised 100 tierces. Freights are easier.
Philadelphia, March IC.—The ferry boat from
Jersey last night, while crossing the Delaware,
took fire. Many jumped overboard, and thirty
were drowned. Tiie boat was consumed.

has arrived at this port, from Glasgow, which city
she left on the 25th ult.
tun Penitentiary Bill.— The Governor has re
fused his sanction to the bill providing for the lease of
the State Penitentiary. This we have from a reliable
source, llis objection to the bill is a constitution
al one, and its caption provides for the “lease or
removal,” while there is no provision in the body
of the bill for the removal. In other words, the
body of the bill is inconsistent with its title, while
the Constitution requires there shall be no dis
crepancy. The error of omission, no matter where
it rests, is a most, fortunate one for the State, we coll
ect ve. —Allanta Exuminer.
Praying to the Point. —The editor of the Bos
ton Hud gives us in several examples of praying
particularly to the point. Here are a couple of
them:
A certain lawyer who dwelt in one of our New
England towns, noted for his ever-reachings and
short comings, during a revival came under the
conviction, and requested prayers for the further
ance of his conversion, llis appeal was respond
ed to by one of the saints, an eceentriet but very
pious old man, honest, plain, blunt, square-toed
and flat-footed, who thus went at it: “We do
most earnestly entreat thee, O Lord, to sanctify
out penitent brother here ; fill his heart witligood
ness and grace, so that he shall hereafter forsake
his evil ways and follow ill the right path. We do
know, however, that it is required of him who has
appropriated wordly goods to himself unlawfully '
and dishonestly, that he shall make restitution
four-fold ; but we do beseech thee to have mercy
on this our erring brother, as it would be impossi- 1
blc for him to do that, and let him off for the best
he can do without beggaring himself entirely, by
Ins paying twenty-five cents on the dollar.”
The next supplicant at the same meeting was
an elderly maiden who got her by living going into
different families and spinning for them. She,
also, had been famous for her short-coinings
never giving full counts on her yarn; the forty
threads to a knot was a point which she never
reached. The blunt old man thus briefly disposed
ot her case: “ Retorm, O, Lord, the heart of our
hand maid here before thee, we beseech thee;
and will thou enable her to count forty 1”

H. G. FARRELL’S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT.
TBIIIE beautiful and fertile region skirting the
w desert of Arabia, abounds with rare plants
and odorous woods, whence are procured those aro
matic gums and balsams of which this Liniment is
composed, and by whose stimulating, unctuous and
penetrating properties it is, when applied, diffused ,
through the whole nervous system, allaying the 1
most intense pain in a few minutes. Try it, w hen ,
you will be convinced that no preparation possesses
in so high a degree, its perfect anodyne qualities.
Its action is prompt and effective. It penetrates
the fiesh to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, re
storing use to limbs paralysed for years, and where
the flesh lias wasted away, leaving nothing but ,
skin and bone, excites a healthy action, causing
new flesh to grow out and till up the shrivelled ’
part. It restores the synovial fluid or joint water,
and this is the reason why it has been so success
ful in diseases of the joints. In affections of the
Spine, Liver, Lungs and Kidneys, this great reme
dy stands before any other ever produced. For
ague cake or enlargement of the spleen, it is a spe
cific. For any internal inflammation, yon will tint!
it gives great, relief. It has no equal‘in the world
for Rheumatism—also, cramps, swelling, numb
ness, weak joints, Spine and ('best, pains' wounds, j
chilblains, burns, sore throat, bites of insects and
reptiles, salt rheum, warts, corns, mange, and in
deed nearly all diseases which require an internal
application, and many others, are greatly benefitted
by it. It is used externally with great success in
goitre, or swelled neck, Scrofula or King’s Evil,
Liver Complaint, nervous diseases, Ac. For Horses
or Cattle, it is as effectual as in diseases of man.
Will cure any case of Sweeney inexistence; also, 1
Spavin, Splint, Ringbone, Bigdiead, Fistula, Farcy) 1
Poll Evil, Windgalls, Strains, Bruises, Ac. ’ (
Look out for Counterfeits !
The public are cautioned against another coun
terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called '
W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan
gerous of all the counterfeits, because bis having
tile name of Farrell, many will buy it in good
faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex
ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error ,
when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil ‘
effects.
