Benton's amend- ment separately, Mr. Haxveoaw urged immediate action of the Senate on the bill. He said that he should vote against Mr. Hale’s amendment under any circumstances.

INTELLIGENCE BY THE MALLS, Wasnixcrox, May 30, 1848. Bargain with the Barnburners—Mr. Dix—Changes in the Senate ‘The barnburners are to be won over. This is the newest move on the chess-board. Mr. Benton and Mr. Francis P. Blair are to be peace-makers ; and the sup- | port of Mr. Dix for Governor of New York, is to be the propitiatory offering on the part of the hunkers, The latter are willing to give this asan equivalent for the support of the Baltimore nomination by the barnburn- ers. It is to be a bargain, The hunkers are to en- Joy the federal spoils. leaving the State spoils to their opponents, The friends of Mr. Cass are in high spirits at the prospect of the success of this negotiation. Mr. Benton's willingness to support Mr. Cass, may create some surprise ; but it ia, nevertheless, perfectly natural. It has been generally supposed that his sen- timents on the slavery question have corresponded with thoes of the barnburners ; and his letter to the editor of a St. Louis paper about a year ago, declining the Presi dency, was regarded as a full committal to | those views. “But it is all a mistake. It is not | to the sentiments of Mr. Cass on the slave- | ry question Mr. Benton objects. It is to those of Mr. Calhoun, Subtract from Mr. Benton's anti-slavery sentiments his anti-Calhoun sentiments, and nothing remains, Itis sufficient reason why he should support Mr. Cass, if that gentleman’s views are distasteful to Mr. Calhoun ; and it is not improbable hat Mr. Cass’s friends have been at no little trouble to impress upon Mr. Benton how very obnoxious Mr.Cas# is to South Carolina, and how widely his views differed from her views. But Mr, Dix is to be made Governor. How that gen- tlemen can face his constituents. after his recreancy ona late occasion, his servile truckling to Mr, Polk, is inconceivable. Toseek the vote of the State after having disgraced it by pitiful time serving—to ask to be made chief magistrate for the purpose of clenching a bargain with those with whom he has refused to act, because of the pretended unsoundness of their principles, lending himself to carry out the animosity of Mr. Benton to Mr. Calhoun, by helping to raise Mr. Cass to the Presidency—requires somewhat more boldness than he displayed on the oc- easion to which Ihave alluded. Of course, Mr. Dix Il be applauded for consenting to sacrifice his own | feelings on the altar of democracy, &c., and his run- ning for Governor will be held to be an instance of the sublimest self-devotion. No doubt is entertained of the success of the bargain. As to the rank and file of the barnburners, they are expected to agree to what- ever contract their leaders make with the enemy. | _ There will soon be several changes in the Senate. | Mr. King, of Alabama, will succeed Mr. Bugby. The ridiculously stupid person sent from Maine, by the Go- vernor, on the death of Mr. Fairfield, will be succeed- ed by Mr. Hamlin; who.although entertaining rome ex- | travagant views on the subject of slavery, has yet | sense enough not to disgrace himself or his State. as | his immediate predecessor has so happily succeeded in doing. Connecticut can scarcely be expected to send men of ability tothe Senate, but the country hada right to expect thet she should not send back such a narrow-minded bigot as Mr, Baldwin, A man £0 ut- | terly unfit to be ontrusted with the business of legisla- | tion, could scarcely be found even within the contines of Connecticut. | Mr. Sion Cameron's seat will also be soon vacant. It is to be hoped the people of Pennsylvania will not | insult the country by sending him back. The Senate | has lately heen overrun with such characters: This man, like Mr. Turney, of Tennessee, was sent to the | Senate by his political opponents, in order to bring into contempt the party to which he professes to | long. This course on the part of the whigs is neither patriotic nor honorable. They should have more re- | gard for the intere=ts of the Union than to send to ite | councils men of such a stamp. whose whole lives have | been a constant mockery of everything like principle | In enumerating the yarious sources whence the Wash- | ington correspondents deriyg their information. the | Jéerald mentioned Mr. Cameron aa one of those from | whom Mr, Grund, of the Ledger, was in the habit of | obtaining news. That gentleman felt exceedingly mortified at being suspected of communicating con- | Suentially with the sitppery Senator from Pennsyl- vania; aud / am authorised to say that he is innocent | of any euch connection Cameron supported Mr Buchanan in the Balti- more Convention, The secret of that support may not be generally known. He knew he could not be re- | elected to the Senate if he opposed him; and although at first. he went over to Mr Polk when there yet | mained a prospect of the success of that gentleman's schemes. yet when jt was evident that there was no hope of his re-nomination, Mr. Cameron immediately ratted to Mr. Buchanan. It ia, then, simply an act of justice to Mr, Grund, to relieve him of the onus of a confidential connection with such aman cameron, GALVIENSIS. Battimony, May 31, 1848. Melancholy Suicide—Victim of @ Kind Heart—~Insur- rance Losses by the Great Fire—Relirf of the Suffers ers—Theatricals, §c. A most melancholy suicide was committed on Mon- day morning at Barnum’s Hotel. Mr. Wm. Bechtel. ® most faithful and confidential clerk in the banking house of Mr. Josiah Lee, was found dead in his bed. aving killed himself by placing the muzzle of a pistol in his mouth; several balls passing through his brain. He was a rather eccentric, but warm-hearted old ba | chelor, overflowing with the milk of human kindness to all his species. He had for many years been em- ployed, at a large salary, by Messra. Lee & Johnson, | which he spent in extending relief to the poor and | destitute, many of whom will lament the loss of their steadfast friend. He was particularly fond of children, nd generally kept a supply of cakes and candies with him to distribute, even among those he chanced to meet in the street The cause of his death is another exemplification of his character. He had recgntly formed an intimacy with # young man, with whom he had spent all bis leisure hours, and was much attached. On the morn- ing of his death, he had accompanied to the cars his friend, who was out to settle inthe West, and | turned to the he much excited; when he was heard to remark, that now his friend was gone, he had no desire to live.

Cur with Intent ro Kitt.—An affray took place betweon nine and ten o’clock last night, in Broadway near Grand street, between Frank Stewart, a weil kuown sporting gentleman, and some four or five others, unknown at present, in which affray Frank received a desperate and perhaps a mortal wound from the hand of one of the ruffians, evidently done with a sharp knife, asthe cut struck the hat, passing through it, and in- flicting a most awful gavh, beginning at the lower part of the skull immediately behind the left ear, cutting down over five inches in length, almost’ severing the large muscle of the neck,’ and within a quarter. of an inch of the jugglar vein or main artery. The wound bled most profusely, and for some time it was thought almost impossible to stop the bleed- ing. The circumstances which led to the murderous assault, as far as we could learn, were as follows:—It appears that Mr. Stewart was attacked in the street by some four or five rowdies, said to be from the 9th ward, who knocked him down in Broadway, near Howard street; and finding he was overpowered by numbers, he left as soon as he could extricate himself, ran into the Broadway House, and in a hurried manner bor- rowed a heavy gold headed cane of Mir. Martin, the proprietor of the house. saying to Mr, Martin at the same time, “you shall have it back again presently.” On going out at the door, Mr. Martin saw him take hold of the cane at the lightest end. Suspecting something was afoot, Mr. Martin fol- lowed outat the door, when he observed Frank walk quickly down the strect on the east side, and look at two men who were coming up; and then cross over to the other side immediately, when two men were coming up Broadway within a few doors of Grand street, Frank raised his cane and knocked one down after the other, and still continued to pay them off until arrested by one of the policemen. Frank's arrest gave time for the two men who were knocked down to recover themselves, and likewise for some of their iriends to come up to their assistance. When, just as Frank was about going along with the officer, he eived the cut with a knife from the hand of one of the party, who were all much in liquor at the time, with the exception of Frank. On Frank calling out he was cut, and as the blood was pouring out from the wound in a stream, the policeman conveyed him into the drug store on the corner of Grand street and Broadway, where a surgeon was in attendance, who stopped the bleeding to some extent in a short time, and sewed up the wound. Mr. Martin, who was very kind in his attendance, procured a carriage and con- veyed him to his residence, where he remains in & very critical and dangerous situation ; however, some hopes are entertained of his reeovery. ‘Tbe Sth ward police were promptly on tho spot, and arrested two of the party implicated in the assault. Officers Pruden and Fountain conveyed them to the stution house, where they gave the names of John Handran and James Mahony, alias Wright. The latter. it seems, is a stone- cutter by trade, On scarching the prisoners, a pen- knife was found on one of them. but as no blood was to be seen on any part of it, it was evident that some other knife had been used. A Mr. John Day, of No, 251 Centre street, stated at the station house that he was present at a part of the affray. and saw Mahony strike at Frank, but whether he intlicted the wound or not, he was unable to say. The cane used by Frank was broken in two or three pieces, showing that he had kept himself busy whi’e he was at work, The accused parties will be taken before Justice M‘Grath, at the Jefferson market police, this morning. for examination; but Frank stated last night that he did not intend to appear against them. fan Docs.—A rabid dog entered the store of Mr. J. Smith, 123 Fulton street, this afternoon, and gave furious indications of laboring under bydrophobia. much to the consternation of the inmates.

Fer- | rier, addressed the meeting at some length. in the course of his remarks, he epoke with much feeling upon the baneful effects of intoxicating liquors, in the use of which so many of the waiters in the city indulged Several members of the society also addressed the meeting. urging the importance of uniting asa band of brothers, meeting regularly, and as often contri- buting something towards such of their brethren as might be laid upon sick beds, without the means of providing for themselves, and perhaps fumilies, the common necessaries of life. It was also stated by one of the speakers that in the prin- cipal hotels in this city the waiters did not get more than $10 per month, in addition to their own board. notwithstanding the fact that some of those waiters had each a wife, child, or others to suppor’, be- sides having to pay rent for apartments out of the before named amount. A series of resolutions, ex- pressing their views of the soc'ety, were offered aud unanimously adopted.

The case was dismissed by the Jus- tice before whom it was brought by Thorne, the com- plainant, and from all the circumstances, as far as we have been able to discover, Mr. Bowyer was more ned against than sinning in the matter.

At this particular season of the your, there was considerable specuiation set on foot in that branch of the business connected with the sale of raisins, Plain- | tif! went to the store of defendants, and made a pur- chase for the amount claimed, as he alleges; the article thus purchased to be fresh in quality, and at tho same time, paying theamount. On subsequent- ly sending for the raisins, he was handed old fruit, of bad quality; and the only point in controversy, was, to whether the plaintiff, as pe ment, Was to re- eive new or old fruit. Several witnesses were exa- mined on this point, when the case was adjourned over to this forenoon, Court Carenpan—Tuis Day.—Common Pleas Part 1. No.’s 31, 61, 67, 59. 65, 67, 77, 95, 117, 127.

State of Trade. m the Liverpool Courier, May 17.] The woollen trade is still improving, a large amount of goods having met with purchasers this (Fi Lexps. week. Prices do not advance, and, though much more eloth is being produced than there was a month ago, stocks are not heavy, and are not accumulating. Bravrono.—The demand for yarn continues inac- tive, and must necessarily continue s0, till there are additional outlets beyond the home consumption. The recent disturbed state of France has retarded the man- ufacture of piece goods and of French merinos, of which large quantities have been usually imported into this country. also sent to America, there is is now no stock of moment to be found. As a substitute, nice, soft makes in Coburgs are looked favorably upon, in which a large business has been done by the home trade houses during the week. Fancy goods for the autumn are expected to go well, both for here and America; some orders are now in course of execution. Rocnpaty.—The market has shown some improve- ment over that of the preceding week. There has been hepa tdage bation aarasatiee pieces, but no improvement in prices. The government order for flannel became known on Monday, and it has been apportioned to about four manufacturers. The contract is stated to be for 8,000 pieces, the weight of each piece 14 pounds, and the length forty-six yards, It is said the price is at a decided reduction from the last contract. Hatirax.—A more cheerful tone seems to prevail throughout the Piece Hall, but it cannot be said there is any actual improvement in the worsted trade. For plain goods there is literally no demand. and fancy goods only dribble off in small lots, at extremely low prices. There is no alteration to note in the demand for yarn. Hvuppersrietp.—The fine weather has produced a favorable effect upon the market, and a large quantity of goods hus changed hands in the Cloth Hall, but the trade has been principally in low priced woollens, In Almonbury and the Kirkburton districts there is a stagnation in the fancy trade. Norrincuam.—Although the London demand for the best faney lace goods continues, yet the supply being necessarily limited, the general tone of business here is but little improved by it. A perfect stagnation exists in all other departments. Operations from America are scarcely begun, and nothing worth re- mark ie doing for the continent. ‘There is a general improvement in all the various branches of the hosie- ryitrade. In cotton hose there is a large amount of business doing, particularly in that class of goods called straits and mock fashioned. Theglove branch in cotton, lisle thread, and spun, isin # sinte of great activity. A good trade is also doing in silk gloves; so that this branch of business may be considered in a healthy state. In pantaloons and shirts there is more business doingin the home trade. Leicesten.—There is more confidence in the main- tenance of prices, an evidence of an improved tone in business, and some contracts (for delivering in the au- tuum) for goods for home trade have been entered in- to. Yarns have been moved from the spinners’ stocks to some extent, but little improvement can be reported in either the continental or American demand. Gtascow.—The improved feeling of the last week has steadily continued during the present, and com- mercial matters now assume a decided appearance of settling down toa steady progressive improvement. The transactions in cotton have been but toa mode- rate extent; the spinners buying merely to supply their immediate wants. No aiteration cau be noticed in price, holders remaining firm under the impression that an advance will soon take place. The import di- rect has been considerable, amounting to nearly 6,000 baler. In the cloth and yarn market a fair business has been done at steady prices M ester, Turspay Eveninc, May 16.—We have to report. throughout the week, a rather depressed state of things, and but for the home trade, which has been toa fair exte nt, matters would have been really very discouraging: when, however, the unfavorable news from Paris became known it proved a complete damper, and all parties scemed disposed to cease opera- tions for the moment. The American houses are do- ing moderately, and the Greeks are doing rather more. ‘The demand for yarns. early in the day, was on the increase, but the market closed as flat’ and quill as ever. Perhaps the prices of grey fustians was never Letore so low; good cords being ebtainable as low as one shilling per yard. Some of the calico printers are ing a moderate business, but the prices are low bo- youd all experience. ‘The silk trade is perhaps as heuthy as any branch, but even this, now that the spring trade is all but over, will no doubt partake of tue genoral inactivity that pervades other branches, The Markets. Loxpqx Moxey Market, May 45, ERvening.—Tho Englieh funds experiensed very {ittle alteration to-day. During the earlier hours of business, the tendency of the market was rathor towards a decline, but prices closed firmer than on Saturday. The dealings wore not important. Consols for the greater portion of the day were steady, at 83%4 to “but were done at 83, both for money and account. They left off with a firmer buyers for present transfer and time. ‘The foreign stock market was dull, and a further de- cline occurred, ‘There was little movement in the railway market prices being much the same as on Saturday. North- western and Midland stock were each £1 lower; Brigh- ton. on the contrary, improved to nearly that extent In other casos there was no change worth notice.— Bus ness was dull, and confined chiefly to Caledonian, Brighton, Midland, and South-eastery. The jobber vere pringipally engaged arranging for to-morrow’s settlement. ‘The corn trade was dull, with a downward tendency in prices. Loxpow Conn Manxet, May 15,—The supply of Eng- lish wheat, by land-carriace samples from the near counties, was very short. In the early part of the morning sales were made at prices fully equal to thoxe of Monday last; but the trade afterwards became dull. and previous rates were barely maintained, Very little business was done in foreign wheat, but its value was supported. There was a steady sale for barley, at an improvement of 6d to 1s per quarter, owing to mode- te supplies. The feceipts of oats during the week ve been very limited, and this article must be quoted to 1s higher, Peas were much inquired for, and in the absence of Ct lized ls to 2s more money.

Corton Manner, May 17,—Thojmarket has been steady since the 12th,and prices have an advancing tendency. Onthe 13th the sales were about 5000 bales, including 800 for export. The market was steady, nd full rates readily maintained. On the 15th the market closed with animation and an upward tenden- cy. Compared with Friday's rates, prices of Ameri- can under 434d were 44 per Ib dearer, The late { port does not come freely on the market; in other sorts there was little change. but the tone among all hold- era was one of confidence again, The sales were about 6000 bales, consisting of nbout 5500 American, of which 800 were for export; 100 Bahia at 54d to 400 Surat at 24d to 24d, and 80 Sea Island at 714 fd, The market on the 10th was steady, and full prices paid, The transactions were estimated at about 4000 bales. Livervoot Cons Manxer, Tuesday, May 16—The supplies of grain, meal, and four since Inst ‘Tuesday, have been small. while the export of India corn and corn meal to Ireland continues to increase, Duties have been paid at this port from the 6th to the 12th instant, Inclusive, on 2.159 qrs of wheat, 2,115 barrels of flour, 18.952 qra of India corn, 1.373 barrels of Indian meal, 47 qre of barley, 4122 qra of beans, and 860 qrs of peas, quantity at market, At thsesiee oodvattendance of town, os, ene, one Trish buyers, A steady business was done in wheat, at an advance on last Tuesday's prices of 2d per bushel on Irish pew, and 1d per bushel on middling qualities of foreign. No imprevement, however, gould bb established on fine fo- reign wheat. Flour was ls per sack snd 6d per barrel higher. Indian corn was in spirited request for Ire- land, and the advance since this day eee a7 may be called 2s to 3s per qr, and on Indian meal fully 1s per barrel.

Panis Bounsr, Monday, May 15.—Three o’clock— The disturbed vtate of the capital prevented speculation to- day, and very little business was done.
