The un- pardonable sin was the publication of the letter of instructions to Mr Slidell, though the prisoner has not had a question put to him on that mat- ter. The instructions to Mr Siidell show that this Cabinet did not consider the Rio Grande as the boundary of Texas, from the sum which they were willing to pay for it; besides, the bar- gain which Mr Slidell was authorized to make, being more favorable to Mexico than the Trist treaty, it is feared that that letter will either en- danger the treaty in Mexico, or the consistency of the Cabinet at home; and the publication of that letter, therefore, is the real offence of Mr. Nugent, in the estimation of the mejority of the Senate, as they believe that he furnished it, and frem the same source whence they suspect the treaty to have emanated, and for the same pur- pose, namely, to defeat the treaty, or, at least, to damage the prospects of the President of the United States, and his plans, whatever they may be, for the campaign of forty-eight. Now all this alarm, or affected alarm, at the publication o' Slideli’s instructions, or of the treaty and documents, we take it is all sheer fustian—all mooushine. There isno danger of the treaty from the publication of these papers, and it-was a clear duty of the public press to let the people know the whole of the facts upon u subject on which their interests are so deeply in- volved. The Herald, therefore, did the public great service in publishing ‘the treaty and those other papers referred to; and the reporter held as a prisoner is perfectly right in refusing tot li how they got there. When the Senate find out that fact, we promise to justy tnem in what they have done, As the night advances a fine rain is coming on, of inestimable value to the farmers. Tue Doctor. Wasurnaton, April 11, 1843. Abolition—Massachusetts—Virginia—The Scenes in the House. Nearly three hours of the time of the House to-day, was occupied with speaches on the suject ot slavery, freedom, superciliousaese, and gentility. Old Massachusetts, in the person o! Mr. Ashmun, wasarrayed in all the harness of battle, against the Old Dominion in the person of Mr. Bayly These two commonwealtho set the ball of the revolution in motion in our early struggles for freedom from Britain, and it seems unbecoming that they should now be opposed, at a tims when they should sit down under “« theshade of our fig trees,” and eat the fruit But uniavorably as many may look upon the pro- ceedings ot the day, they served to keep open eyes that else would have been closed in slumber on the settees. The ‘“‘ keen encounter of wit” was relished by the auditors. We look upon the proceedings, if 1n no other hight, as unprofitable, for even Bumcombe was not benefited. You will see from your Congressional reports, that Mr Ritchie was not forgotten, and came in for an extralick. The beauties of free negroism and of slavery are presented in snch favorable | ghts, that a man like Casper Hauser, would be puzzled to make his selection. The whole affair was “*rich”’—decidedly, indisputably. Fruix. THAT Sen CONGRMSS, FIRST SESSION. Benate, Wasnisarow, April 11, 1843. ‘Weather warm as a medinm dayin the middle of July. Thin Senate this morning. Prayer, journal, poti- ‘tions, ko. THE CHAMPION OF THE FARMERE, Mr. Revenpr Jonxson presented a memorial from John S. Skinver, the champion of the agriculcural inte- reste of the Uaited States praying an appropriation by Congress for the estanlishment ofaa institution wherein shall be taught the sciencs of agricuitars iu all its va- rious branches. Mr. Skioner enters into aw argument in support of the object of his memorial. He exhibited from the official records, that of the exponditares of the general goveroment, includiog s long series of years eighty-five cent have bren absorbed io the military and naval establishments of the country, while to the pro- motion and encouragement of agriculture, not one dol Jar has been given From 1759 to 1843, ths expenditures for the civil departments of ths government exclusive of the public debt, were, $246,620,000; for the army and navy, $539,960,000; while in mone of these ap- propristions did the interest of sgriculture have apy exclusive advantage. The annua! agricultural pro- ducts of the Union exceed $600,000 000. It is the great interest of the country, and entitled to the consideration of the government. Commerce, mavufactures, and the profession of arms, were made the objects of the protec- tion and encouragement of the general government; ond why, then, should not ogriculture, the greatest of oil in- dustrial interests, be also protected and encouraged? Hi memorial was referred to the Committee on Agri- culture. ABSLITION, Mr. Hace presented a iot of abolition petitions, several of them praying the appropriation of the public lands to the extinotion of slavery in the Union. NEW YORK BRANCH MINT. On motion of Mr. Dickinson, the bill for the establish- ment ofa branch mint in the city of Naw York wastaken Zz and made the special order for the second Monday in May next. MR BAGBY's RESOLUTIONS, declaratory of the powers of the federal government, and the ressrved rights to the people and States, on the slavery and territorial questions, were taken up. The first resolution declares that Congress has no power under the constitution to abolish slavery in any State or Territory of the Union. The seoond declares that it is just and proper to ac- quire territory as the conscquence of a just war. The third declares that territory acquired from the expenditure of the blood and treasure of the citizens of ail the States, is open to the citi of ali the States; nor can their slave property, any more than other pro- perty, be prohibited in such territory. Mr. Bacny submitted an argument in support of the grounds laid down in euch of the feregoing resolutions; end in concluding, moved that they Le made the order Of ths dey for Monday weok Mr Hae asked @ postponement, in view of other mea- sures coming up Mr. Bacny declined to yield for the present, and his motion prevailed. THE CALIFORNIA CLAIMS—THE MEXICAN TREATY. Oa motion of Sir Cass, the bill appropriatirg $700,000 for the payment of California claime, was takeu up. Mr. Dayton took the floor, and after some general preliminary observations on ‘he duty of supporting the country ina state of war, aid that there was now ap armistice between the two countries—asuapeneion of arms—a point where whore we may exorcise the right o: self judgment and the right of its fail expression. The War, commenced and prosecuted for indemnity ter the Past and security for the iuture, bas thus far given us An expenditure cf $100 000.000 as a Indemuity for the past, and the contingent of $20,000.00 as security for Uhe fnture. The great object Dayton, in U speech, was to reply to the recent speech of Mr Webi fgainet the Vrist treaty. air Dayton said tbat ie ¥n the first senator on this side of tie chamber who OF: kr a Wad in luvor ef the treaty, anu he smould stand by i’ ‘oe Senator from Marsachusetia, (Mr. Webster) in speuking of this treety, declares it a bic of paper culled or miscailed, @ treaty, that had been enatched up by the Seuate, and ratified, «na commismovers then appointed to negotiate upon it,thus reversing the usual order of tuings Mr. D. contended thatthe treaty had been taid before the Senste by the proper authority, under the constitution, the President of the United Btater, and the Senate had no right Lo go beyond the treaty to look into the charac- tor of the negotiator. The whole question of objections to the treaty must, therefore, be confined to tie treaty itself 1 care nothing «bout the poverty of the ceun- ty acquired. It is, perhaps, a8 weil thatthe country isthe worthless region described; but after all that the Seastor from Massachusetis has caid sgainst the vast expenditures for so worthiers a country in exchange, still we do get something—we get San Diego, anu we get San Francisco, which are admitted to be of some yaiue But it matters mot with me if the territories acquired be as worthless and barren as tho Senator has deruribed them. That matter dors not enter into the discussion Of the real meritsof the case. The Senator srom Massa- chusetts asks why not make peace without territory—can we Bot do that? No,tir.

House of Kepresentatives. Wasnineron, April 11, 1848 THE RESOLUTIONS EXPRESSIVE OF SYMPATHY FOR FRANGE— PREROGATIVES CF “COLORED Feoruk”—“a CHARMING poy.” Mc. Parraey, of Maseachusetis—I move a reconside- ration of ta vote by which the House y+sterday passed the resolutions from the Senate ce: latiog the French government onjhaving “consolidated the princi- ples of rapuciicanism ”? The Srzaxer-Did the gentleman vote in the af- firmative? Mr Faurarr—I did. I move the reconsideration of the resolution, for the purpose of offering an amend- ment. The government overthrown was said to have been a throne surrounded by the popular institutions of arepublic. There were two hundred thousand voting citizens, who wielded the elective power of that go vernment, and affected thirty-five millions of men. Phey wielded {t, like other oligerchists and monarchists to other days, through republican o .aunels. yet, by ar- bitrary power, and threats and intimidation. Bui m: otject in rising is to make a remark or two, called fo: by the observations of the gentleman from Virginia, (Mr. Bayly) I did not hear him distinctly, yester- dwy, though I sat by him; and es bis h does not appearin the morping papers, I do pot design to follow him at every step He, Lowever, advorted to certain laws of Massachusetts.

Mr. Patrney—This reminds me, Mr. Speaker, of the time when you and I were at school. We had to hold up our hands and say to the teacher,“ May | speak?” The gentleman from Virginia ssys that this iss care where publie sentiment overrides the law. I never sat upon ajury.

I suppose depends upon the selectmen of the three hundred and ten towns. ir. Bayty—It would seem, then, that in public offises they may be deprived of their rights. ‘he Sreaxen (there being much confusion) requested gentlemen to preserve order. Mr Patraryr—The gentleman asked, yesterday, whether colored men were heard «fon the bench or ai a Justices’ Court. I know this much. as Secretary, I sent, withthe broad coal of the com- onweaith, a commission asa lawyer, toa respectavle colored man, nearly as biack aa my coat. If the gentle- muan goes to Marsachusetts, whien I hope he will, and it he gets into trouble—which I hope he will not—he would be as likely to get jastice meted out to him by this co- lored gentleman as by any other lawyer boaring the com- ssion of the old Bay State. The gentleman said some- thing about the Legislature. Iwas there in 1842 and 1843. In one of those yesra, it was said inthe House, and I suppose it was true, (I never sew the election cer- tiffeate) that acolored man was chosen for the Lgisla- tare. [ suppose the statement to be accurate. ['‘ Where was he from?”] From Townsend, my friend informs me, (Mr Baviy—Did he take his seat?)

The gentleman gives mang facts, which may be of interest to the gentle man from Virginia, and to others. “There are, in New Bediord,”’ he says, “about twelve or thirteen hundred colored persons, and ef that number three or four bun- dred are emancipated slaves. They are beginning to improve themselves in education. Last year the highest teholar in the high school was a colored girl, whose composition wou'd have doae no discredit to a graduate of Harvard.

Whig Organization—Repudiation of Joh P Kennedy and other Prominent Taylor Whigs— The Mineral Bank, $c _ The whigs of Baitimore held their ward meet- ings on Mondey evenin:, to choose delegates tor thé State couvention 10 nomiaat: delegates to the graud national whig convention. There was uw large attendance at ali the wards, and great unanimity in regard to their desires for the Presidency evinced; every man of the one han- dres delegates elected being in favor of Heury Clay. Resolotions were almost unanimously adopted in every ward, dee aring their ** decid ed preference for Henry CO} above all other men, as the fittest und most acceptable candidate for the Presidency.” In some of the wards [ learn that various quite amusing incidents occurred. In the tenth ward, the Hon. Joha P. Kennedy was brought forward as a candidate to the convention, but his letter to the Philadelphia Taylor festival was arrayed against him, in which he pledges the vote of Ma- ryland for General Taylor Intimations were then given to the meeting, that he was prepared to recant thet decluration—that he fiads himsell to have been inerror, and that he was now ready to go, heart and soul, for Harry Clay. This an- nouncement was weil received, but a voice like that heard in the French Chamber of Deputies proclaimed ‘it is too late.” and the election was proceeded with, and Mr. Kennedy was not elect- ed. The object of Mr. Kennedy desiring to be elected to the convention, was to afford him an opportunity to define his position to the friends ot Mr. Clay, and to be received back to the gen- uine whig told. Ja all the wards, some of the prominent whig leaders who have proclaimed General Taylor to be their first choice, were brought forward, but in every instance deieated by overwheliming votes This was the case with Z, Collins Lee, Outer bridge Housey, and J. Nevitt Steele, Esqs , all of whom were repudiated. Lhe general impression is that the Hon. Chris- topher Hughes wil be chosen by the city con- vention to represent the city in the national con- vention at Patladelphia, as te 18 known to be for Henry Clay first, last, und ail the time.

Case of Insolvency—The Election in Camden, N.S. $e. The insolvent petition of Major Abner G. Daniels, of Kentucky, was this day heard before Judge Parsous,and the opposition having been withdrawn, he was discharged by proclamation of the court. He is, therefore, released from all demands upon him in this city. David Paul Brown, his counsel, then asked that the order previously made, that Major Daniels should be handed over to the authorities of New York, on the requisition from the Governor of that_State, should be revoked, on the ground that there is no averment contained in the requisition, that ob- ing goods under false pretences, is a crime just the lawa of New York. This was op- by Mr. Hazlehurst, the counsel for the claimants in your city; but without concluding, the judge postponed the case until Friday The festival in honor of the birthday ot Henry Clay takes place this afternoon, at the Chinese Museum; at which Messrs Corwin, Botts, Mingum, Thompson, Morehead, Greeley ‘and © hers are expected to attend.
