Thirty-First Congress—lst Session.
Washington, June sth.
SENATE.
Mr. Yulee moved that the Senate take up
the message of the President respecting Cuban
affairs.
Mr. Bradbury urged upon the Senate the
expediency of taking up his resolution and
voting on it.
Mr. Webster was willing to take up the Cu
ban question for discussion. He presumed
there would be much discussion.
Mr. Yulee thought that a committee could
make a report of some of the facts presented in
the voluminous message of the President. If
we waited for the documents, the subject
could not be discussed this session.
Mr. Foote was in favor of a deliberate dis
cussion of the subject. It was necessarv that
some reply should be made to the views taken
of the subject by the Hon. gentleman from
Massachusetts, [Mr. Webster,) when it was
before the Senate some days ago.
The motion was laid aside.
Mr. Bradbury again urged his motion.
Mr. Clay said it was evident that a long
debate would follow, and no question. It was
a high party topic: and was that to be con
sidered when the country was agitated by a
question between union and disunion? The
President would, of course, reply to the reso
lution; that he could not answer it without
•derogation of his executive character. He
\)oped the subject would be laid on the table.
* Mr. Footejhoped the Senator from lowa who
alid the floor on the resolution of the Senator
from Maine, would give way. The debate
would beinterminaoleon it. He hoped that
a more important question would be first dis
posed of.
Mr. Benton said the bill from the compro
mise committee had been long before the Sen
ate. ft was a bill of forty sections. A de
bate on one clause of one section had occu
pied one month.
In justice to California he could not longer
than this week defer the motion to postpone
the bill indefinitely.
Mr. Foote said it was evident that, after
this week, the Senate must, in reference to
the proceedings of the other House, determine
whether to go on with the joint bill or take
up California by itself.
Mr.gßardbury’s resolution was laid aside.
The Senate took up the Adjustment Bill.
Mr. Turney commented onsome remarks in
the “Union” respecting his course on the
bill. He should give his vote for the bill,
though he should not support some amend
ments.
Mr. Foote made some expnalations in de
fence of the venerable editor of the Union,
whom he highly lauded for his patriotism and
wisdom. Mr. Ritchie was nobly sustained in
his course by the present Governor of Virgin
ia, who had pronounced this to be the proud
est portion of his life. Mr. Ritchie had
treated this question as one above all party
considerations.
Mr. Whitcomb made some remarks in vin
dication of his course from the comments of
the “National Era.”
After deb ite, the amendment of Mr. Chase
was rejected—yeas 25, nays 30.
Mr. Jefferson Davis’ amendment was also
rejected—yeas 21, nays 30.
Mr. Seward moved the Wilmot proviso,
which was rejected—yeas 23, nays 33, as fol
lows :
Yeas—Messrs. Baldwin, Bradbury, Bright.
Chase, 'Clarke, Cooper, Corwin, Davis, of
Mass.; Dayton, Dodge, of Wis.; Douglas,

Nays—Messrs. Atchison, Badger, Bell, Ben

Pratt, Rusk, Sebastian, Soull, Spruance, Stur
geon, Quincy, Underwood. Webster, Yulee—
-33. Absent—Messrs. Borland, Phelps, Wales
—one vacancy.
Mr. Berrien’s amendment, prohibiting the
judiciary from passing laws either excluding
or establishing slavery; was agreed to. Yeas
30, nays 27.
The Senate then adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
On motion of Mr. McLane, of Md., the
rules were suspended, and the House resolved
itself into committee of the whole on the
state of the Union, and resumed the consider
ation of the California question.
After some remarks by Mr. Jones, in favor of
a substitute offered by him, Mr. Dunham took
the floor upon the general question. He was
followed by Mr. Tuck, Mr. Johnson, of'l'enn.,
and Mr. McLean, of Kentucky ; after which
the House adjourned.

The sales to-day reach 1500 bales at 10 to 12£
cents.
Augusta Market, June 8, P, M.
COTTON.— Ihe recent favorable advices from
New-York, gave holders to-day more firmness,
and they refused to sell at prices yesteraay sub
mitted to by one or two Planters. The transac
tions, in consequence, were limited, but the few
sales made were at full rates.

[PER AMERICA.]
Liverpool Cotton Circular.—We have
had a perlectly steady market all the week. Oc
casionally, the demand has been limited, and the
business small in amount —but there has been
uniform firmness and confidence, founded mainly
on the ascertained fact of the short crop iu the V.
States. Perhaps some of the middling qualities
of American, at or under 7d, may have comman
ded a trifle better price, but the change is so
small as scarcely to be quotable. All other de
scriptions remain as before. The quotations be
ing for fair uplands 7;[d.; Mobile 7jj; and Orleans
74. Attention will be strongly d'reeled to the
amount of our stock as compared with the same
period last year.
Liverpool Corn Market, May 21.—The
piesent exceedingly fine weather caused a very
sack trade for wheat of all descriptions,and a
declide of 2d per 70 lbs from the rates of Wed
nesday week. Fiour in slow request, at a reduc
tion ot Gd to Is per quarter Sack. Indian corn,
although not quite so lively as yesterday, was in
fair demand, at Is per quarter over the rates of
this day se’ennight. May 25. There was a slen
derly attended market this morning, attributed to
the favorable change to mild showery weather.
Wheat and flour barely supported the rates of
Tuesday. Indian corn supported the price of
Tuesday, but the demand was less active than of
late—3Bs per4Bolbs is the quotatio i for the finest
American yellow.

it needless to say anything byway of recom

most simple, and yet the most efficient piece of
machinery that has ever been introduced into this

which these pumps have over all others which
have been, and are now in use, is that neither
pistern rodsor valves are about them, consequent

that nothing can get into the pump to injure it in
the slightest degree.

DR. WISTAR’S BALSAM OF WILD
CHERRY.
IT was known many years ago, that the Wild
Cherry tree of 'his climate possessed valua
ble medicinal properliees. Indeed, this fact was .
known to the aborigines, and a decoction of the J
leaves or bark of this tree has ever been
by their physicians as one of the most
i emedies in many diseases. This fact, levejfl *
years s-ace, arrested the attention 1 -of ,J>r.
a highly respectable practitioner ol
investigated with care, the healing properties of
the W ild Cherr, “tested its effects when admin
istered alone, and when in combination with othei
remedial agents. He found that its natural vir
tues might be grea’ly improved, and by combining
it wi<h ingredients, whose properties were well
proved and generally recognized, a medicine was
produced which constitutes a remedy of great
value in pulmonary affections, ai.d diseases ol the
chest and th'-oat—diseases which are proverbially
prevalent in our cities and large towns, and often
prove fatal, swelling the bills of mortality to a
much greater extent than is the case with most
others, we had almost said all other classes of dia .
eases. •
EXAMINE CLOSELY BEFORE PURCHASING.
The genuine Balsam is put up in bottles, with
the words •< DR. WISTAR’S BALSAM OF
