indicate his opinions, and try to exert the in fluence of his high position. The President lays great stress on the Missouri Compromise, renewed again in the case of Texas, and says in very plain terms that, if any portion of this territory were to the south of that line, he should interpose the veto; and further, that while he is President, no bill excluding slave ry from the region South of 3G 30 can receive his approval. The justice and the importance to the peace and harmony of the Union of compromising the slave question, he enforces with much earnestness. The tone and senti ments of the message arc highly patriotic and commendable.” TirE Suffrage Questiox! —That “local ques tion,” in North Carolina, did the business for the Whigs, at the late Election, but the En quirer flatters itself, that the case will be re versed in November, when the said local ques tion is settled. We think differently. The poor people of the old North State, who have hitherto been deprived of free suffrage, have just found out that the Democrats are their friends, and the Whigs enemies, on this ques tion, and it is not likely they will forget a mat ter of such vital importance to them, by No vember. They will be slow to place them- I selves, again, under the feet of those who | would disfranchise a poor man because he did not possess a property qualification. In fact there was a great political principle involved in the late election in North Carolina —and we shall marvel much if the same principle is not carried into and made a party test in all future contests in that State. The anti-free suffrage party is the Whig party, there, and they must take the conaequeuces of their own anti-republican measures.— Muscogee Democrat . Among the appointments made yesterday by the President, with the consent of the j Senate, is that of Gen. Shields, one of the ! bravest of the brave during the late war, but who is accomplished not less as a civilian than a soldier. May success attend him on the dis tant banks of the Columbia. This appointment furnishes another refuta tion of the plot of the “ Buffalo hunt.” Shields, who was to have led a new revolution in Mex ico, is now, it seems, destined to a very differ ent theatre.— Washington Union, 1 5th inst. IF 'tom the Knoxville Standard.] “ How are you, Mr. L “ Poorly ; how do you do, Mr. P r” “ Fine weather ! Any political news ?” “Oh ! bless you no ; none of interest. I’m : so busy now I hav’nt time to meddle much in ' politics, I hear some men talking up there I at the grocery and around at the post office about the candidates for President; but, la ! I don’t consider myself at all interested.” k> “ What! not interested ? Why I thought you were one of the strongest Taylor men in the country. How is it ! No objections to . Zachary, have you?” “ \V ell, I don’t know, Mr. P., I always went for old Clay. He’s a man for you—[here Mr. L.’s eyes sparkled, and his brawny frame ex tended to its utmost altitude and magnitude, I while, with an animated countenance, he con tinued,]--a whole man—a real straightout Whig ; —every inch of him. Ah ! Mr. P., we have some tall men in the United States, but Henry j Clay is u head and shoulders taller than any of them.” j “Then you won’t vote for Taylor, I sup- 1 pose r” j “No sir-ee. I’ll be darned if I do.” “ Then, what say you to Cass r Any objec- j tion to tire volunteer General r” “I can’t exactly say. One thing is certain, 1 I go in for a whole soul man like old Hal, of Kentucky, and ‘ nothin’ shorter.’ I was in | that big coon hunt in ’4o—the time when wo i caught a Tartar in the person of Tyler—you’ll find me out of this hunt. I’ll be darned if I ever vote for a man who has a t and y, and an 1 and an rin his name.” And Mr. L. will not be alone in his position, : as will be clearly proved by the ballot box in November next. liiSE in Grease.—lt is said that so great’is I the demand in some parts of the country, for | lard to grease Whig throats to swallow Gen. j Taylor and “ his free soil laborers,” that all j sorts of grease is in active demand. — P/uladel- ! phia Spirit of the Times.

June 21 3m € c m m c r c i a L CHARLESTON, Aug. 19 — Colton. —This ar ticle has attracted very littie attention since our last report, and the week under review may be said to have been a very quiet one. Ihe sales at the close of business on Tuesday, as stated in our semi weekly report, had reached but about 1000 bales. Although the market had exhibited daily a good deal of lassitude, buyers had been unable to make any»decided impression on prices ; as the week however, advanced, buj'ers manifested even less disposition to operate than they had done at its opening, owing in part to the complexion of the advices brought oyer by the Acadia, which reach ed us on Thursday last, and to the non-arrival of the private advices ; and also in part to the high terms demanded, for although the sales made with in the last three days have occasionally turned in favor of the buyer, the change is not of that deci ded character us to induce us to change our quo tations, and we therefore continue those given in our publication of the 12th inst. The aggregate sales of the week do not exceed 1770 bales, against the receipt in the same time of 4506 bales. The transactions comprise 118 bales at 6,1, 3G at 5 5-16, 134 at 5g ,55 at s£. 4at s|, 173 at sg, 53 at G, 110 at 6|. 102 at G|, 436 at 99 bales at 6 13-Kic. The first bales of the new • f crop was received here yesterday. The market for Long Crttoh has also been very quiet since our last, the transactions having been confined to some •>9 bales, at prices rangiukiroin 12 to 24c. Corn —The corn murkwPbas been quiet through out the week, owing to the absence of arrivals. Nothing has reached ns from North Carolina ex ! cept about 3qo bushels, whicli were partially dam aged, and sold at 50c. Our quotations refer to i previous transactions, and are a fair criterion of ; the market. No \ irginia or Maryland have been received since our last, and present quotations are nominal. 'We have no transactions to notice in | country corn. Flour. —This article has been very much neg i lected during the week. The bakers generally are well supplied at present, and hence the quiet state of the market. Small lots Baltimore have hi ought G; do. Western d : \ and 6; and country brands within the range of our quotations, and a> I high as $G per barrel for a fancy Jot. The receipts are 150 bids. New Orleans, and 414 by Rail Road. Sait. — There is none afloat. The article is sell ing from store at $1,20 per sack, in small lots. Freights. — We quote to Liverpool, Colton in square bags and Sea Island if a 4d. To New York 25c. for Cotton and per tierce for Rice.— There is comparatively nothing offering to Boston : I we quote nominally for Cotton 25c. and $1 per tierce for Rice. New York, Aug 16—G P. M. , The tidings by the Acadia do not continue to keep the market up, the private advices not be ing so favorable for bcadstuffs as the published ac- I counts. The flour market is dull, and the tendency of prices is back to their old position. Sales of 5,000 hbls. four to-day at 5 12.} a $5 25 for Blacklock, Oswego, Troy and Brooklyn. Southern is quiet at 5 25 a $5 50 i The sales of corn to-day amounted to 10.000 bushels at GO to G 8 cts., according to quality and description. Sales ol 150 bbls. whisky at aj24 cts. per gal lon. Cotton has changed bands to-day to the extent t of 1.100 bales. The market now to | cents, per pound below prices previous to the arrival of ’ the Acadia. Slipping Intelligence.
