A Sign ok \\ ab.—A significant fact is re
ferred to tit the private advices of some of the
Poston merchants by the last steamer from
Europe, viz : that the English government has
recently been buying large quantities of sidt-
petre. One letter states that they are believ
ed to bold now one half the entire stock in
market. They are known certainly to have
purchased several thousand tons recently ; and
iu cotiscqucuce, an ailvatiec of about £5 per
cent, has been made on the ordinary price of
the article in market.

The day before yesterday thc Southern
Whig Senators held a caucus in reference to
the state oftlie ]>arty, thc Nebraska bill, and
matters and things touching Whig policy in
general. Thc National Intelligeuccr came uu
der discussion, nud Seuator Toombs of Geor
gia, offered a resolution repudiating anil de
nouncing that press, which was umuiimously
adopted—but three Southern Senators absent,
aud one of those kuown to accord with Mr.
Toombs iu sentiment and feeling. This is the
knell ofthe quondam YY’hig pnrtj’. So Senator
Toombs aud his confreres admit and do uot
conceal their joy on account of it. Thc debris
of whigslnp, with the lutclligeuccr, it is well
understood, arc to be turned over to Mr. Ev
