The Intelligencer copies from yesterday’s Unton an article saying that the Navy De- partment arein possession of despatches show ing that the story of improper interference on the part of Capt Tarleton, of the British sloop-of-war Eurydice, in the affair of the steamship Orizabs, Capt. Tinklepaugh, at San Juan del Norte, is wholly untrue in every im- portant particular. It will be recollected that at the time we discredited the current account of it, and explained how, and why it must be utterly baseless. We note this official publi- cation at this time, as an evidence of the gen- eral corr-ctness of all that we take occasion to state concerning affairs of public interest occurring abroad, as well as at home. The Union, to-day, contains many able political articles, urging the election of Bu- chanan and Breckinridge. The editor reiter- ates his views of the impropriety of the course of Col. Benton, if that gentleman is really an advocate of the Democratic national ticket; or of its disingenuousness, if, as it insists, he is secretly aiming to bring about their defeat in Missouri. a ee WASHINGION NEWS AND GOSSIP Very Indignant Indeed.—Mr. John L. Smith, one of the Know Nothing set that interfered with and disturbed the Old Line Whig meeting on Saturday night last, indig- nantly denies through the columns of our tal- ented, truthful and ipgenuous neighbor, that in his speech te the crowd of Know Nothings and Republicans from the City Hall steps (de- livered after the conduct of the persons there congregated had broken up the Whig meeting at Copp’s saloon) Mr. Campbell of Obio, al- luded in any way to the Brooks and Sumner affair. We know well that he did not mer- tion the name of either of these gentlemen. But why, if be designed no reference to that affair, did he discourse of ‘gutta percha eanes’’ and the “‘hireling of the South’? Though hot ourself present, we have far more confidence in the version of his remarks given to us by an observing, cool and scrupulous gentleman who did hear them, from whom we derived the information on which the article calling forth Mr. Smith’s denial was based, than on the assertion of any one writing on such a subject matter under the obligation of the oaths taken in a Know Nothing lodge. The truth is, Mr. Campbell scattered his fire so much on that occasion, az that it was as hard for bim to remember just what he said, as for many of his Kuow Nothing brethren present to comprehend the real drift of his remarks. He (Mr. C ) * put his foot init” most egregiously on Saturday night last, and is essaying to craw-fish clear of the conse- quences of his conduct on that occasion, by using Mr. Smith in the Organ, and his name- less friend in the Intelligencer. The effort will not avail him, however. He had no bu- siness whatever to interfere in the procesd- ings of an old line Whig meeting ; being both ® member of # Know Nothing lodge and a staunch Republicau—a Fremont and Dayton man athome. His protestations of fidelity tu Whig prizciples on the City Hall steps, his habit of boasting of bis American partyism at Know Nothing meetings here, and bis Pledges of fidelity to the abolition cause of the Republican Freesoilers at the North and West, satisfy us that, however clever he may be personally, his politics are cut after the pattern of the virtue of the French vzvande- rie, (female camp follower) who always boasted that she was true to—a troop of dragoons! Our City’s Finances.—The Washingten Property holders’ attention should be directed to the proceedings of Monday in the Board of Aldermen. The new Mayor estimates the class of the debts of the Corporation which the late Mayor thought to be some $14,000, at about $71,000—a vast difference, truly Mayor Magruder deserves thanks for his prompt re- commendation of increased taxation. The in- terest of property holders is at once to provide for its payment at whatever cost. This large indebtedness is the result of Know Nothing mismanagement of‘our Corporation affairs Under the Know Nothings, the policy of the city government was to do everything in the way of special favors for every partizan of theirs who applied for such assistance. The money to pay the whistle must be raised. The holders of Washington real estate will have got off cheaply enough, if hereafter they will profit by the lesson of the Know Nothing era in their municipal affairs, out of which they have recently escaped. The refusal of the Know Nothing majorities in the Couneil Boards to carry out the Mayor's recommendation promptly to increase the rate of taxation, seems t> evince their determina. tion still further to involve the corporation in financial difficulties, merely, as far as we can Perceive, to gratify a petty spirit of spite They must kuow that it is the desire of the Property-holders of Washington to get the eity out of such debts as they are thus asked to provide for, rnd at the same time to con- tinue the really necessary improvements of streets, dc. Knowing these facts, what else but sach a spirit as that to which we refer, can be at the bottom of their refusal on Monday last to carry out the Mayor’s recommendation in this connection? Mr. Fillmore.—This gentleman cannot as yet realize how his determination not to with- draw from the list of candidates for the Presi- dency, cuts, in Washington. The Republican members of Congress, the wish being father to the thought, had very unanimously made up their minds that his first act on landing in New York would be to take himself out of the way of their candidate. His failure to do so, and the now admitted fact that he does not pro- pose to govern his conduct by what they may deem most likely to aii them in crushing his immediate friends whom they hate so in- tensely, has caused much gnashing of hon- orable teeth, and bids fair to cause much more of it ere the end of the canvass. One or two other facts that have very lately become apparent also seem to render the Republican members not 8 little discontented with the existing condition of the pelitical horizon. We allude to the state of affairs in Massachu- setts, New York and Pennsylvania, in all which States it is now very certain that Mr. Fillmore’s vote will outnumber that of Col. Fremont. From those and other northern States they are daily hearing of declensions of leading persons who have until lately be- longed to the Republican Know Nothing party, to sustain the Philadelphia nomina- tions. They realize, and many of them frank ly admit in conversation, that in nominating Col Fremont they sold out at half price, and that they are literally without hope of suc- cess in November, unless Mr. Fillmore will very speedily back out of the canvass. Dead—Our many readers will learn with sorrow that the disease under which he hasso long been suffering, has at length carried from earth the Jfon. Thomas H. Bayly, of the Ac- comac congressione’ district of Virginia, in- formation of whose demise, at his late resi- dence in Accomac county, Va., reached us this morning. Comparatively young, he has thus been cut off in the beginning of his career of great public usefulness. Had he lived and been blessed with good hea‘th, he could not have failed to have become one of the most distinguished statesmen of the age; for his mind was poweiful and clear, his attainments in public rfairs vast, his character energetic’ and his ambition entirely legitimate. He leaves a wife and a daughter just grown. His estate was large and carefully husbanded. His death leaves a void in thousands of hearts, for he was as widely beloved as he wes known. The Settlement of the Texas Debt.—Up to yesterday morning there have been issued at the Treasury Department, under the law for the liquidation of the Texas debt, 602 Treasury warrants, amounting to an aggre- gate of $6,580,377.74. The distribution of this vast sum among our own citizens for the most part—very little being held out of the United States—has of course had a most beneficial effect on the state of American monetary affairs. The Current Operations ofthe Treasury Department.—On yesterday, the 24th of June, there were ef Treasury warrants entered on the books of the Department— For redemption of Texas debt $38,161 37 For the redemption of stock. 80,093 42 Fer the Treasury Departme: 15,686 30 For the Interior Department..... 10,711 06 War warrants received and en- tered. .....00. 57,894 50 From Customs... 170 82 On account of the Nevy.... + 173,230 10 CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. In the Senate, yesterday, after we went to prese, Mr. Hunter continued his speech upon the Kansas question, directing himself to the Massachusetts resolutions with reference to the Brooks and Sumner affair, and to imputa- tions of Mr. Sumner upon the State of Vir- (se He regretted that the legislature of assachusetts had treated a mere personal affair between the two gentlemen named as a matter of public moment. He said that many personal collisions between members had oc- curred, but thia was the first instance in which a State had interfered in such affairs. He regretted this interference because it had a tendency to exasperate and aggravate the sectional animosity and strife which were al- ready distracting the peace of the country. While paying @ tribute to the revolutionary fame of Massachusetts, he denied that her present position in oy ih to her fidelity to the constitution and the Union gave her any pe- culiar right to sit in judgment, and demand of Congress to execute her decrees. His re- marks upon the personal-liberty bill in exist- ence in Massachusetts were extremely im- pressive and forcible. In re} uM to certain reflections upon the char- acter of Virginia contained in Mr. Sumner’s specch in connexion with the institution of slavery, he entered upon a philosophical and conclusive vindication of that institution. He showed that transfer of slaves by sale from one State to another was & necessary conse- quence of the existence of slavery, and that it was essential, not only for the comfort and happiness of the whites. but of the slaves also. He dwelt with power upon the impracticabil- ity of the abolition ot slavery witaout conse- quences far more disastrous to both master and slaves than any evils that could be pic tured in their present relations. He defied apy man to show three millions of negroes, bond or free, in any country onthe lobe, who had made the same progress in civilization, and who enjoyed the same Prosperity and happiness, with those three millions in the Southern States. He alluded to the histori cal fact that slaves were introduced into Vir- ginia by Old England and New England, and said that the seller was just as responsible as the buyer. He then showed that there were as many men outside of the slave States as inside of them who owe their subsistence and their profts to slave labor. At this time Old England and New England were buying freely the products of slave labor, and were making profit on it They were, therefore, as respon- sible for the continuance of the institution as was the slave-holder. He said that if the people of New England and Old England should refuse to buy the products of slave labor, it would cease to be # vipwargete at home, and the institution would die out. With such views, Mr. Hunter thought it exceedingly un- reasonable in Massachusetts to approve and endorse a speech which assailed the Southern people, as did that of Mr Sumner, for having amongst them the institution of slavery, for which they were as responsible as were the Southern people. Mr. Hunter’s vindication of Virginia against the charge of “turpitude” contained in Mr. Sumuer’s speech was characterised by the loftiest eloquence and the most noble devotion to the fame of his native State. In the course of his remarks Mr Hunter discussed with great ability the question of constitutional “ privilege,” as guarantied by that instrument. His investigation of the subject had induced him to change his mind as to the correctness of the conclusions at which the Senate committee had arrived in the case of Mr Brooks, and he regretted that the Senate had not declined to take jurisdic- tion of the matter, and to leave it to the judi- cial tribunals, to which he thought it Pprop- erly belonged. Mr. Hunter with a eet or to the Senate and to the country in behalf of a restoration of more kindly and fraternal feelings than now pre- vailed, and in language of the most thrilling eloquences depicted the fatal uenees that must follow ig something was not done to arrest the career of mad sectionalism Mr Seward replied to that position of Mr. Hunter’s speech, argu: the action of the Senate upon the srooks and Sumner affair was proper, and essayed to show that the re- solves of the Massachusetts upon it had also been Proper. The debate was further continued by Messrs. Butler and Pearce, in short, but powerful speeches, and by Mr. Hunter in a few closing remarks; until they adjourned. In the House, various territorial bills were considered in committee of the Whole on the BA fteece state of the Union, most of the session of the day being devoted to the bill to admit Oregon into the Union when that Territory shall have the requisite population, which was tempora- rily lad aside to take up other bills not likely to give rise to so much discussion. When the committee rose, the bill for the establishment of two additional land offices in Minnesota was passed; and then they adjourned. Proceedings ef Te-Day. In the Senate, to-day, Mr. Toombs intro- duced his bill for the pacification of Kansas, which was referred and ordered to be printed Mr. Wilson presented a memorial from the New England Eniigrant Aid Society, for prop- erty of theirs alleged to have been haa so in recent popular outbreaks at Lawrence, sas; referred. Mr. Johnson, rising to a personal explana- tion, questioned Mr. Seward upon the drift of his remarks on the day before, so far as they bore on his colleague in the other House, Mr Rust; and his interrogatories gave rise to a discussion upon the Rust and Greeley affair between Messrs. J. and S., that was in pro- gress whon the Star went to press. In the House, various Territorial bills were reported and committed. Mr. Washburne, of Me., gave notice that when the special order—the current Territo- rial business—shall have been disposed of, he will call up the report of the Elections Com- mittee on the Illinois contested election ease The question then arose on the amendment eh yesterday from the Committee of the Waole, to the bill to establish two additional land distiicts in Kansas territory. Mr. Bennett of New York, moved to lay the bill and amendment on the table; iaid on the table—yeas 105, nays 79. Ex-Presipent Fittmore has been exten- sively lionized by the New York Know Noth- ings. On Monday his quarters at the St. Nicholas were besieged by his admirers from early morning until midnight. In reference to the current report that he would withdraw his name from the Presidential canvass, Mr. Fillmore stated to one of the committee men who we‘ted upon him that it was his determi- nation to stand by the American party; ‘‘and until that party sees fit to withdraw my name,’’ said he, “ it will not be withdrawn.’’ The public reception came off yesterday, when & procession escorted him as the guest of the city to the City Hall, where he remained un- til two o’clock in the afternoon, to receive the congratulations of his fellow-citizens. Mr. Fillmore was to leave for Buffalo to-day. ———~-—2+e —____ GEORGETOWN CORRESPONDENCE Georgetown, June 27, 185€, The ratification meeting of the Georgetown Democracy last night was very large indeed. At one time the entire space in front of the hall, and the adjasent portions of tbe streets north, east, and south were filled with a mass of human beings, the outskirts being graced by quite a large number of ladies, until a dis- graceful disturbance was raised (which was soon quelled) for the purpose, we suppose, of trying to break up the meeting. Ould, presided. Esq., ‘Tie Hon. Mr. Smith, of Tennessee, was ibe first speaker Mr. 8. said that he regarded is the duty of every man to speak out upon the current political questions. We had fallen on troublesome times: The paree ay of our in- stitutions was threatened, and it was the duty of every patriot to put forth every effort to arrest the threatenea danger. He dealt the woolly-horse team and the Know Nothings a few pretty severe blows, and after pledging Tennessee for 10,000 majority for the Demo- cratic nominations, took his seat. The next speaker was the Hon. Mr. Caru- thers, of Missouri. Mr. C. said he had been an old line Whig. He did not get straight into the Democratic party ; he came through the Know Nothing party. He was induced to join them for the purpose of raising a new arty to defeat the Democracy, believing that it (the Know Nothing party) was a national party. He found, however, that he was de- ceived. Then he saw a glorious army with banners, with the mottoes on them of * Just equality of the States,” ‘‘ The capability of man for self-government,’’ ‘ Civil and reli gioas liberty,’ and he followed it, and ex- pected to continue to follow it into the very thickest of the fight. He loved the names of Webster and Clay; buthe had been told that if they had lived they wouMi have been Know Nothings. This he denied. It was a libel upon their character. They were not the men to be found sneaking around dark cor- ners, and in at back doors, under cover of night, and pledging themselves by oaths to aaron posses they could not openly de- fend in the Senate of the United States. He had also been told that the immortal sage of the Hermitage would have been one had he lived. That was false! That great patriot and statesman had a way of his own, which was to face every danger and meet boldly every error, and had he lived until the days of Know Nothingism he would have sworn “by the eternal” it was wrong His speech was replete with wit, humor, and sarcasm, often eliciting loud and long applause. Mr. Stanton, of Tennessee, was then intro- duced to the meeting. He was a native of the District, and felt a deep interest in the people of the District. No people in the coun- try have a deeper interest in the struggle now going on than they have, as upon the stabil- ity and perpetuity of the Union depended their future welfare. He was in the National Legislature when Wilmot immortalized him- self by the iniquity of his acts. The people might for a while, through prejudice, passion, or excitement, be led astray by such men; but as soon as they were properly informed they were always found right—battling for national principles. Hoe regarded Fremont as well qualified to explore the wilderness, but wholly unfit to hold the reins of government of this great nation. As tothe Know Noth- ing party, he regarded them as completcly torn and riven into factions. The next speaker was the Hon. Mr. Burnett, of Kentucky. We shall not attempt to follow him in his flights of eloquence, sallies of wit, and biting sarcasms. It was the first time he ever was in Georgetown. He had heard of the people, of their intelligence and love of order, and their former adherence to the old Whig eee He regarded that party as now defunct. it always bore upon its banners in characters of light the great principles for which it contended. But thero has ariser up in its stead a party that came like a thief in the night, appealing to the passions and pre- judices of the public mind for support, array- ing one — of the community against the other. He sepeuee to the people to look back over the history of the country and see who assisted our revolutionary fathers to achieve our liberties. Among them, he said, were hundreds and thousands of foreigners and Catholics. Then they were one people, having a common interest, and knowing but one religion—the religion of the Bible, which proclaimed universal charity and good will to all. He wa. frequently interrupted by deaf- ening applause, and took his seat after pledg- ing Kentucky for Buchanan and Breckinridge, and urging upon the people the duty of sup- porting that party which has upon it the im- press of nationality. He was followed by Mr, Peck of Michigan, in one of the very best historical und logical political speeches we ever had the pleasure of nearing, which must have fallen upon the hearing of all with tell fect. Lieutenant Herbert of Louisiana, was then called for, and came forward and addressed the meeting for @ short time in a strain of wit. and humor which often convulsed his hearers with laughtor He cloved by offering to bet apy man ten hogsheads of good sugar against ten boxes of Yankee shoes, that Buc: would be elected by the largest majority ever given to ang proridentist candidate. Daniel Ratcliffe also delivered a short speech, in the. may sel helene arto fo.:thnee resent, ishing those who had mani- ‘ested a disposition to create disorders to es- chew such evil ways, lest er fall into the hands of an an, Judge (Crawford) who Would not spare them. Three hearty cheers were then given for the Democratic ticket, &e., and the meeti: adjouraed. Spectator, ALEXANDRIA CORRESPONDENCE. ALEXANDRIA, June 25, 1856.

The dey (June 18) on which Fremont was nowinated was the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo. At Waterville, Maine, the announcement of Fremont’s nomination being made to the Wa- terville Republican Association, they imme- cane adjourned to Elmwood Hotel, where Hon. Lot M Horrill, last year Speaker of the Maine Senate, addressed them. A farious Republican clergyman of Detroit used the following language in a recent ser- mon—as reported by the republican organ of thatcity: . “ Before I would see the popular sovereign- ¥. wrested by force from the people of the ferritories, I would have the plains of Kansas silent with universal death. Before I would have the lips of our Senators and Represen- tatives sealed in craven silence by the hand of Southern violence, I would seo the halls of Congress ankle deop in blood.’ Fresu Deposits or Guano —The London Chronicle of June 5, says: It appears that in addition to the deposits of guano lately dis- ered by the Americans, there have been overed several isolated islands on the coast di of Arabia, lately ceded to Great Britain by the Imaun of Muscat, on which a valuable deposit of the same fertiizing ingredient has been found, of good quality. A royal license has been granted to Mr. J Ord, of Litherland, near Liverpool, and Messrs. J. Hindson and J.H Hayes, merchants and brokers of Liv- erpool, to raise and export the guano, during & period of five years, from the islands of Jib. leea, Haski and Ghurvoad, in the bay of Koo- ria Moorta, on the south coast of ‘Arabia. The license stipulates that all the guano which shall be raised from these islands shall be shipped direct to the port of Liverpool, or sucn other port as may be approved, on the application of the licensers. A royalty of 2s per ton is to be paid upon :all the guano shipped during the first two years, and 4s. per ton afterwards. This discovery will tend to reduce the price of Peruvian, or at least to check any rise in its value ; more particularly as the Panama Railway Company have re- duced the charge for its conveyance across the Isthmus. —<$<$____ A Perrumep Breatu.—What lady or gen- tleman would remain under the curse of a dis- agreeable breath when by using the “Balm of a Thousand Flowers’? as 9 dentrifice would not only render it sweet but leave the teeth white as alabaster?
