Tharsday, March 28—6 P. M. Stocks are all down to-day The sales were very small. Harlem declined 1} per cent ; Ohio 6's } ; Vicksburg } 5 Mohowk }; Kentucky 6's } ; Pennsylvania 5’s 1} ; North American Trust 1; Farmer's Trust}; Long Island and Norwich closed at yesterday’s prices, Ia remarking upon the failure of a cotton speculator in * his city, some little time since, we mentioned that seve- fal Georgia banks would be large losers by the event, and that they had been instrumental in getting up specula- tions throughout the §South. A paper published in Sa- vannah denied that such was the fact, and assured the public that all the banks of that State were sound and sol- vent. Since the failure of the Phenix Bank of Columbus, what we asserted has become history. The circulation of the Phonix Bank does not exceed $35,000, butthe Au. usta banks have fon hand protested drafts amounting to about $250,000, which are worth about as much as the paper on which they were drawn. ‘The Sanate of Pennsylvania have passed the bill for the payment of the interest on the State debt, due on the first of February last, with an amendment extending the rate of interest upon certificates of stock to 5 per cent, extend- ing its provisions to the interest falling due in August next. The ‘was sent back to the House of Represen- t atives for concurrence. The receipts of the Western Railroad for the week ending March 234— Boing 3.139 4,62t $6,150 $9,445 This shows on increase of more than 33} per cent. "the opening of the North River will draw a great deal ef { reight from the road. Large quantities of produce, such aa flour, grain, &c., will reach Boston by water, freigh by packets being cheaper. The public mind is at this moment somewhat agitated in relation to the annexation of Texas to the United States, and as the importance of that event depends in a great measure on the trade and commerce existing between Mexico, Texas and the United States, we have taken from official reports the amount of trade carried on for several years, The amount of merchandize exported from theUnit. ed States into Texas is not very small compared with our trade with Mexteo j Dut when we take IW Cuncsiderativis the age and resources of the two countries, it will appear surprising that Texas should, in so short a time, have be- come so good acustomer, Under the fostering care of our government, the resources of that country must be- come more rapidly developed than while weighed down by war and poverty. The population of Texas at present ia very limited, and the uncertainty that hangs over the existence of that republic, prevents emigrants from set- {ling on its soil. Remove this obstacle, and we have no dowht people trom all parts of the world will settle within the limits of that fine country. It is, without doubt, the best cotton growing country in existence. The climate is favorable to the production of every variety of food. Imports From axp Exroats to Trxas ‘ ‘Balance in ports. Exports. Savor U 165,718 1,247, 1,082,162 18. 303.03 vane 430 892 ‘fue imports into Texas from the United States, have increased very rapidly up to the last returns, having nearly quadrupled, while the exports to the United States have fallen from $1,637,082 to $406,929—a decrease of threethundred per cent in four years.

Of the imports into this country from Texas, about two-thirds of t . total amount was 1m raw cotton as follows :— 18; 1, total importation, 395,026 Value of cottoa, 1842, do" 480,892" Do do ‘808,296 496,929 Imports of cotton for $875 918 two years, £683,358 We see by this, that of the imports from Texas there is nothing that competes with any of our domestic interests; and the admission of that country into the Union, would give us a large home market to supply with our manufac. tures of all descriptions. The movement going on between Mexico and the United States, in relation to Texas, may possibly result in an annexation, without creating any of the anticipated troubles, Ourtrade with Mexico has, for many years past, been gradually falling cif; until lately it has not ex. ceeded that between this country and Texas. Vanog oF Isronts From axp Exports to Mexico rrom ‘otal import for two years, THE Unitep States, Balance in Bat agetyst Imports.

In 1834, our imports from that country exceeded our exports nearly three millions. Ourtrade has fallen from $9,000,- 000 to about $2,000,000 in eight years. The principal articles of import from Mexico are hides and skins, dye woods, specie, and wool, and of the total imports for 1841, $3,190,204 were entered free of duty. The principal do- mestic articles of export from this country to Mexico are provisions, suchas flour, pork, lard, &c., iron manufac- tures and cotton goods. Many of these things are entered under a very high rate of duty, and many of our exporting staples are prohibited. Very little of our exporting trade with Mexico is composed of merchandise of domestic manufacture, the bulk of it consisting of foreign goods sent from the United States into that country, such as ilks, &e. The additional market created for our manufactures by the annexation of Texas, would, pro- bably be more valuable thau the whole trade of Mexico Great Britain at present monopolizes the most valuable portion of the Mexican trade, Fxvonts rnom Grear Briraiw ro Mexic 1696. 1637, 1898, 1839," 940, Cottoy manufsctares, value, £114,065 199,156 250,929 990.755 a2, 9 Liner do do 17, 65 872 78.958 9175 “gy '9I9 Woollen do do 15,785 W.3M93:719 57316 Salone £147,009 901,722 969,791 546,788 gma) It will be observed that within a few years the exports from Great Britain to Mexico of these three kinds o+ manufactures alone, have nearly amonnted to as much a« the total exports from the United States to that country. Should the negociations, now progressing with the Mexican government, relative to the purchase of ‘Texas, prove successtul, our trade with Mexico} will suffer no intermption. We have given these tables, for the pur- pose of showing, at the moment the subject is creating an excitement, the comparative position of the foreign trade of this country with those interested in any movement approaching an annexation. The position of Texas at this time favers any movement made on the part of the United States towards purchasing that territory. Her in- dependence having been recognized by the most impor: tant powers of the world, and the probability that Mexico never can recover possession by force of arms, may lead to some mutual arrangement between the go- vernments negotiating, that will keep in existence the amicable position of both parties.

And I am satisfied that the peo- ple will sustain me in this.” re Senator.—Nothing would give me 80 much pleasure as to charge the enemies of my country at the head of a regiment of mounted men. TyLer.—Well, sir, I think it very possible you may have a chance to do so. We hear further, that there is now a probability that the negociation with Mr. Packenham will ter- minate abruptly, aud end in nothing ina few weeks. Then Mr. Tyler will send a message to Congress, advising that body to give Great Britain the year’s notice, and proceed to take possession at once of the Oregon Territory up to 52 40. Both parties in Congress will be foreed to show their hands on this question. A treaty will also be made with Texas and sent to the Senate—and a similar process take place there. {tis expected that Mr. Calhoun will be im Wash- ington this week, in order to give impulse and energy to all these movements. It is also stated, that a general sweep will be made of all Mr. Webster’s friends now in office, either here or on foreign missions. Mr. Webster is now considered deadly opposed to the adminis- tration. Great times ahead. ———____. Washington. [Correspondence of the Herald.) Wasuinoton, March 27, 1844. Mr. Phoenix has returned to his seat in the House. His health is much improved, excepting a slight pain in his side. Cassella has advertised to give a concert on the violoncello on Thursday evening next. ‘The friends of Calhoun have advertised that he will arrive here on Friday next, at 2 P. M., and they are all invited to meet him at a steamboat wharf and escort him up to the city. J suppose it is intended to have a great procession, ‘The weather is quite warm, but the dust renders Pennsylvania Avenue almost uninhabitable, and quite untravellable. I discover that there are not a few Van Buren men in the House who are shy of touching the new Tariff Bill. They think the party has nothing to gain by meddling with it, and much to lose. Its fate grows more and more doubtful, especially, as nine out of ten of all the petitions now nats in to Congress are against it. Ss. B. Wasutneton, 27th March, 1844. Mr. Simmons did not finish his speech to-day in the Senate, but gave way for an adjournment. I cannot speak of the realfcharacter of Mr.Simmon’s argument if he had one at all, it was 0 difficult to follow him. He was not listened to with interest, although I have heard it said that he is an able man on the tariff side of the question. It cannot be dis- guised that the tariff discussion has been worn thread bare. Even Mr. Benton himself could not hold an attentive audience. People want some- thing new. ‘They are tired of the old topics. ‘The fact is, just at this identical junctare—before Calhoun’s urrival—the city of Washington is very dull and dusty. Conversation drags heavily, for there is nothing to enliven it, _In a fit of desperation I heard some Senators to- night speculating about Mexico, Texas and this Government, something as follows :— ‘There is an armistice now between Texas and Mexico. If Texas takes advantage of it in con- nection with the old la—y, (such were the words, at the head of this Government to form a treaty liance with the United States, Mexico weuld con- sider it a violation of the laws of nations, and would appeal to the world to justify her in declar- ing war against both Texas and the United States. The armies are now—so they said—hovering upon the borders of Texas—and she would regard such @ Negociation as sufficient cause to instantly break thearmistice, Sig. Almonte has his eyes wide open uponall that is going on—and nothing can be con- cealed fromhim. But it was said that in the event of a war between Mexico and Texas, the whole South and West would rush to the scene of action—and the end would be that Mexico would be overrun and plun- dered. Although it was very justly doubted if any permanent government could be erected. : aes ran the substance of the conversation allu- ded to. Probably next week the Oregon bill will come up for discussion in the Senate. Mr. Bagby_is ex- pected to speak upon the question. 8. B. TWENTY-KIGHTH CONGRESS, FIRST SESSION, Senate Wasninaton, March 27, 1844. TARIFF oP ’42. Messrs. Pearce and Francts presented petitions from both their respective States, remonstrating agains: disturbing the tariff of 42. ‘RR VON SCHMIDT AND HEMP. Mr. Bayarp reported a bill in favor of paying this gentleman for translating a work on hemp from the Russian language into the English. Read twice and referred. Several private bills were read twice. Among them a bill to increase the salary of the District Judge of East Tennessee, was discussed by Mesers. Tappan, Jarnagan, Foster and Allen. Mr. Allen made humorous allusion to the very laborious du- ties of the Committee on Retrenchment in the ate, who began their work at the last Congress, d had been hard at work ever since, but they had producd nothing yet—there was great roo tor hope, however, that the committee would not falter in their labors, even though retrenchment seems to be now travelling the wrong way. (Mr. Allen is always opposed to all increase of the expenses of the country, He goes for strict economy, cutting down expenses on every and all occasions.] Mr. Al- len thought Judges should prefer honor and diguity to money. Mr. Janwacan thonght if Ohio Judges could port familes—pay their rent, butter their , and clothe themselves with honor and dignity, it should not be ex wenious judges in othi States, Judges inother States were very apt to think that mere dignity would prove buta homapatheie supper, and honor a thin garment. Mr Carrrenpen said he did not like to interfere with his friends, (the whigs) but he doubted the propriety of increasing the salary of this Judge from $1500 to $2000. Ie was unjust to other Judges who Nveeived Eee 1000 te 1500. He could not go with those . Increase ii ornone. He is Siposed to thie partial legislation, If you increase this Judge's (Brown) salary, then all who hold small salaries will call on you for am increase a eet vey thought this case should be considered on vepective of other Judges.

Mr. Carrtespen proposed to re-commit the bill to the Committee on the Judiciary, with instructions to take in totheir consideration the expediency of equalising the salaries of all the District Judges of the United States. The bill was postponed. Col « wanted to call up his Post Office bill, which w de the order of this (ay but it was by informally, in order to give Mr. Simmons an opportu- hy to make speech upon THE TARIFR, Mr. Simatows# therefore rose to make his speech.
