INTELLIGENCE BY THE MAILS, Wasninaron, June 2, 1848. The Oregon Bill and the Wilmot Proviso in the Senate. The Senate continue their wasteful discussion of the negro question upon the Oregon bill. Mr. Calhoun insists that all the States, having an equal interest in the territories of the confederacy, the citizens of none of the States can be excluded with their property. Hence he demands that the territory shall be left open to slaveholders of the South to go into Oregon with their property, in- cluding slaves, Congress having no power to pre- | vent it, and the territory having no jurisdiction in the case, being subject to the laws of Congress. _ The bill, as reported by Mr. Douglass, from the Comunittee on Territories, provides that the terri- torial laws of lowa and Wisconsin, in reference to slavery, shall apply to Oregon. This application would carry with it the Wilmot proviso ; and it is in Oregon that Mr, Calhoun and his Southern allies plant themselves in opposition to the * white man’s resolution,” and the doctrine of Gen. Cass, which assumes that the people of the. territory have the right to decide upon the prohibition or admission of slaver Toe democrats in the Senate are puzzled what todo, The Calhonn doctrine. men in Alabama and South Carolina and. Georgia ean only be ap- peased by a full concession; and there is a dispo- sition in the Senate to make it, were it nottor an apprehension of the disastrous results that would follow in such States as Indiana and Tlinois, not to say Missouri, tor although that State is a slave State, the peo le are anxious that Oregon should bea non-slaveholding region, a home for the working white man, and for him alone. ‘There is every prospect that this question of the Proviso will delay the action of Congress in behalf of Oregon for weeksto come. The memorial of Judge Thorntorn, while it presents a most gratify- ing picture of the good character and highly hono- rable deportment of the people of Oregon, in the midst of the greatest difficulties, also presents the imperative duty of Congress to act at once for the protection and preservation of those well-deserving tellow-citizens of ours west of the Rocky Moun- tains. They rely upon Congress, They are building up an empire out there, which will soon contnbate | irgely to the honor, the prosp2rity, the commerce, and the re nes of the republic ; and they must not be neglected for the discussion of a ridiculous abstraction, as is the Wilmot proviso, in reference to Oregon. The last advices trom the Columbia, show that the numerous Indian tribes are in confederation to exterminate the Americans, and it would be a sorry s} rallthe alleged machinations of the H iy company, to see the American settlers left dependent upon’ that company for the eans of self-defence. ‘ We are gratified, meantime, to state from the imony of an intelligent gentleman just returned ‘om Ore hut the Hadson’s Bay company— especial 2 the Oregon treaty—have been on the most friendly terms with the American set- tlers, fi hing them with agricultural seeds and ith goods, munitions, arms, and farms, on terms of credit not often of the mountains. We hope that attle for their ed & this friendly disposition between the two people— the 4 ericans and the Indson’s Bay company— y prevail. It ought to be an object to encon- age this good feeling, rather than to foment dis- cords between them, which, in that remote part of the world, if excited to civil war, could only ter- minate in the most bloody butcheries. _Lastly, we hope that Congress will dispense with this negro question in this case—pass the bill, and send out a thousand mounted men, as a proof that the people of Oregon south of 49 are held to be citizens of the United States. v. Wasninxe@ton, June 2, 1848. Adwterated Drugs—Misnamed Medicines—The Passage of a Bill to Exclude them. Dr. Edwards, from the select committee, con- sisting of all the doctors in the House, (Jones, of Ga, Fri ckart, Nes, Lord, Newell, Henry, and Williams,) this morning reported a bill to prohibit the importation of articles, purporting to be drugs and medicines. We understand, from the read- ing, that they are to be examined at the custom houses ; analysis is to be made—spurious importa- tions are to be destroyed—violations of the law to be visited with penalties, and examiners appoint- ed at New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Charleston and New Orleans. The bill was pass- ed, after a few words of explanation by Dr. Ed- wards. The report accompanying it is ably written, and exposes the villanons transactions of individuals, whose business itis to adulterate the medicines sent to this country for consumption. It is bad enough to swallow genuine boluses and draughts of apothecary’s stuff. It appears that ona reference to the custom house books of New York, it was found that seven thon- sand pounds of rhubarb root had been passed with- in ninety days, ‘not one pound of which was fi or even safe, to be used for medicinal purpose: Some of it was worm-eaten and decayed, while re Xtracted. from two-and- ) to seven pence ether portions of its virtue had been \ at This article was invoiced a-half pence sterling (five ce (fourteen cents) per nnd The price of good East India rhubarb, for several years past, has been from thirty-five to forty-five cents per pound, according to circumstances. The Turkey or Rus- sien is worth, from a dollar and twenty-tive cents to two fifty, exhibiting a wide difference in price between the good and the refuse article. The = Peruyian bark is worth not less than sixt! reighty dollars per quintal—the worthless traeh that comes from Europe, principally, is previously | deprived of its virtue, tor the purpose of making the extract of Peruvian bark. It is invoiced from two to seven cents per pound. A thousand pounds passed the New York custom house, and may, the committee say, be considered dear even at this rate. Opium is also adulterated ; two-thirds of the active principle is taken out, for the manufacture of morphine. Many of the medicines, gums, &c., are so adulterated, or combined with earthy or other matter, that they are not only unsafe, but worthless for medicinal purposes. Blue moss, when pure, contaizs thirty-three-and-a-third per cent of mercury, combined with conserve of roses, &c. The detenorated article, according to the correct analysis of Professor {Read, of the New York College of Pharmacy, is made as follow: en ee Earthy clay............. Prussian biue, used in colorin Sand. in combination with ela Soluble saccharine matter. Insoluble organic matter. . . Water ‘ Thus it will be seen, that the spurious article contains lees than one-fourth of the active princi- ple of the genuine, to say nothing of the indiges- tible earth, &c. The amount of drugs, medicines, &c., annually imported into New York, is about a million and @ halt of dollars. It was in 1847. Three-fourths of all consumed in the United States are imported through that custom house. There can be no doubt that the Senate will promptly pass the bill, unless an effort be made to nd it, by mene the Wilmot proviso, | " The government has obtained many of its medi- cines for our army in Mexico, by contract, and it is probable, that brave men, having esraped death upon the battle field, have been poisoned in the | hospitals by the administration of cheap physic. We think that an amendment ought to be made to the bill, requiring the importers of deleterious me- dicinesto swallow it in the presence of the exa- minors. Fevrx. Wasiineron, June 2, 1848, A Few Items. We notice, among the recent arrivals, the Hon. N.P. Tallmadge, who was, as far as our memory runneth, firsta democrat; secondly, a whig; third- ly,a Tyler man; and, fourthly, a T The mud of former political preferences rubbed off, and he appears to be in the best possi- ble conditiou for the political campaign.

On Monday next, a meeting is to be held in Charles- ton, to take into consideration the action of the convention, We notice that the whigs of the Georgetown district have appointed Edward Ga- mage, of Charleston, to represent them in the Whig National Convention at Philadelphia. This George- town district seems to be the only one in that State interested in conventions; and they are very partial to @ representation by a unit. The House of Representatives, to-day, were oceupied in the consideration of bills on the pri- vate calendar.

Brutal Murder—Escape of the Murderers—Generat Cass and the Barnbwrners—-Mr. Burton—the Se- guins, Fe. Intelligence was received here last night of the per- Ppetration of one of the most horrid murders on re- cord, in Baltimore county. It appears, that Mrs Cooper, wife of Trego Cooper, Esq., residing near Park- | ton, Baltimore county, returned to Parkton in the cars | from a visit to this city, and started for home, about a mile distant, at 11 o'clock inthe morning. From that time until yesterday afternoon, nothing further had been heard from her; and the general search that had | been instituted, resulted, yesterday afternoon, in fiud- ing her body, brutally cut and mangled, in a ditch by | the road side, covered with brush and rails, ‘Two | Germans, who were lurking about in that vicinity. and have since disappeared, are the suspected parties. She had with her a new umbrella and a pair of shoes. aud probably a considerable sum of m ney, On the eveuing of her disappearance, the suspected Germans Offered to sell a patr of shoes an an umbrella at Park- ton, She was about 00 years of age, Gen. Cass will arrive in Baltimore on Monday on hie way North, on 4 mission of conciliation to the bara- burners, The President and leaders of the party at Washington are exerting themselves to the utmost to bring about such a consummation, but they seem to think that they cau only be bought up by office. If the division is really on principles 1 imagine that the open purchase of the leaders will never carry the mass with them. The General will receive a most cordial welcome in Baltimore, Mr Burton will open the Front Street Theatre on Monday evening, with a good company, producing the new play of “ A Glance at Baitimore.’” The Seguins close their engagement at the Holliday street Theatre to-night, which has been truly most successful. They have performed sixteen succes- sive nights to overflowing houses, Mr. Reeves, hns been most enthusiastically received. They commence a series of concerts in Washington on Monday. Primapetrma, June 3, 1848. Fires—Ratification of the Treaty of Peace with Mexico—Stock Murket—Pony Express—Tele- graph, §c. The upper portion of the building at the north- east corner of Third and Dock streets, occupied the Original Sun office, was discovered to be on fire about five o’clock this morning. The flames, however, did not do much injury, but the whole building was deluged with water, and the contents considerably damaged. The insurance is ample to cover the loss to the proprietors of the news- paper, as well as to the owners of the building. The fourth story was occupied by Edward H. Rau, bookbinder, whose stock was also damaged. The origin of the fire is believed to have been incen- diarism. An attempt to fire an extensive lumber yard in Eleventh street, Spring Garden, was detected this morning by the watchman. A bundle of straw had been placed beneath a pile of lumber and ignited. ‘The fire was extinguished before any damage had been occasioned. ‘The ratification of the treaty of peace is said to be confirmed this morning by a private letter re- ceived at Baltimore from Jalapa. Stocks have been buoyant for several days past, a premonitory symptom that the news had reached the North be- fore the public announcement made of it this morning. The pony express as at present man- aged, has that great failing, to be at fault only when it is the bearer of important news, which if too soon promulgated, would have the effect of spoiling some interested person’s chance of specu- lating in stocks. The telegraph has been in pe fect order, south of Washington, yet no commu- nication has been received from the agent sta- tioned, at present, at Augusta, Georgia, since Wednesday last. Quere ? ‘The Whig National Convention. Puitavertiia, June 3, 1848. Our city is now overflowing with strangers; but to use an Irishism, is not yet full. ‘The singular termina- tion of the democratic convention, at Baltimore, has had an inspiring effect upon the admirers and parti- sans of Mr. Clay; with them he is the Alpha and Omega, and they therefore spurn the attempt that is being made to foist upon them a candidate who will not submit to go into the whig convention upon equal terms with the man of their choice. This state of feel- ing is most beautifully reciprocated on the part of the Taylor men. To unite such discordant materials in not only an improbabjlity, but an impossibility, What phrase then does the state of the case present, toa mere looker on, or to the far sighted politician? Why, simply this: that both must give way, and unite in the nomination of Judge McLean,Crittenden, or ome other distinguished whig. If this is not done, strong resolu- tions will be introduced by the Southern delegates, concerning the Wilmot proviso and other isms, which, if they are not passed. they will retire from the con- vention and nominate Taylor. who would, under such aresult, receive the entire vote of the South. You may rest assured of this one fact, that if Taylor is nowinated by the convention, the Clay whigs will not support him, even though they may not stultify their votes, by nominating Clay. Behold, a prophet!—say you not so? But, as “coming ovents cast their sha- ows before,” the result will prove that we have reached atthe substance of things, not hoped for, but which will nevertheless be attained. Colonel Taylor, brother of the General, informed me, a few days since, that Judge McLean is his father-in law, aud that, there- fore, his house is divided between the conflicting claims of father and brother, Some one writes. that a house divided against itvelf cannot stand—will there be an exception toa general rule, or will the nomina- tion of cither of the two aspirants unite that fortunate family? Mr. Cass leaves Washington on Monday, en route for New York, homeward bound. The result of a few weeks will determine if he is to be bound back agin.

During a week spent here, I have noticed with ad. miration the beautiful churches of the different Pro- tostant denominations.

After listening for some time to the discussion among the boarders and guests of the Palmer House, as to a choice of “good preaching.” I went to Wesley chapel, and heard the Rev. Mr. Holliday discourse from the words, “Take heed, therefore, how ye hear,"’—(Luke 8, xviii.) fle divided his sermon according to the alasses whieh usually make up a congregation—first, the mere churoh- going; second, the mere listeners to the words cf the epeaker ; and third, they who in hearing drink of the spirit of the gospel. The eloquent divine gave to each their due portion The Hon, Judge McLean was among tho listeners. He attracted the eyes of all present, being in a position near the pulpit, where he faced the congregation, and could be conspicuously seen from every part of the house. I could not help coming to the conelusion that this was a designed arrangement, though [ charitably hope not with the Judge's consent. His honor wore a black cloth frock coat, of the style worn a few years since, white linen pants strapped over the boots, black satin yest and cravat, full plaited shirt Losom, crossed by aheavy gold watch guard; and on retiring he wore white linen gloves, and earried un umbrolia, On reaching the Palmer House, instead of retiring to his room and there meditate on what he had heard, as the preacher said those of the third class of his congregation would do, the Judge tarricd in the reading room.and from a dozen of filos of newsr- papers relected the Cincinnati Ei great care. apparently, the sevei juirer, and read with latest numbers, and The Judge. then, although a member of the Methodist chure’, did not on this occasion take heed how he practixed what he heard There resides hore a certain Dr. Ackley, who is an abolitionist of the most ultra and fanatical class, and openly espouses political abolitionism. Some stir was made among the whiga a few days past, on account of the frequent calls of this Dr. Ackley on Judge McLean, at the latter's privateroom. The jealousy of the whigs as to the propriety of suchan open intimacy with an avowed abolitionist.—who, at the same time, too, nouneed Clay, Seott, Cerwin, and Taylor, as unfit to receive his support; but. admitting that if the whigs would nominate Judge McLean they might expect his own and other abolitionists’ votes—was still more exci- ted by the cireumstance of the Judge's lady, and her son, Mr. Gerard, also here, having visited the family of Dr. Ackley and took tea. Some of the whigs say, that the motive which prompts this social intercourse with Dr. Ackley, is too palpable to be misunderstood. 1 think #0 too. It is now admitted by whigs, and aseented to by do- mocrats, that the only whig nomination that can in any manner compote with the Cars and Butler ticket, will be that of General Taylor WESTERN SCRIBE.

To enable you to form a just and adequate idea of the present revolution, it becomes indispensably necessary to refer to the previous history of the President Sou- louque. His predecessor, Riche, had scarcely succeed- ed in putting down the revolutionary spirits, with which, unfortunately, the republic abounds, and estab- lishing something like order, than he was snatched away by the hand of death. It is but just to his me- mory to say that, during his transitory Presidency, his conduct inspired confidence among the well disposed, while he was a terror to evil-doers; and in his death Hayti experionced an irreparable loss, Another P: dent was immediately elected, in the person of General Soulouque, ® man of Whom very little was known, from the simple fact of his never having done anything to merit public attention; in fact, the then ministry, who had the majority in the Senate, thought, by electing a noneutity, to prolong their tenure of office, On the day of his inauguration he took the solemn oath to respect with fidelity the constitution; and pub- liely declared, before God and men, that he should rigid- ly follow the noble example traced by his illustrious predecessor. Being naturally of an indolent disposi- tion, and much addicted to pleasures, purely sensual, he abandoned himeelf to these, leaving the tro of all business of State to the ministers in charge. had been happy for his country had he continued to remain in this’ state of passiveness; but beginning to perevive the extent of the power he possessed, he was aroused from that state of torpor into which he had fallen, and began by replacing those whouw his prede cessor had promoted to places of trust and tonor, by men of notoriously bad character; and, being without that force of character which prompts bad men even to follow their own inspirations, he listened t closely followed the counsel of his new advisers, im- prisoning men of all grades and of the highest respecta- bility, and violating the constitution which he hud so soennly sworn to observe and respect in all its in- tegrity, From the commencement of his reign unto the pre- sent moment, has been a perpetual struggle of the canaille against the respectability of the country—of the ignorant against the educated—and itis not sur- prising that, with the powerful influence of the Presi- dent thrown into the scale of the former, that che lat- ter are obliged to succumb, While he fesses to be the friend of order, he permits, with impunity, the ral ble to threaten, massacre, and to pilla he well di posed aud peaceable portion of the community; hoping by thus favoring the inob, who are unfortunately the more numerous, to be enabled to maintain his position. Among the most beneticial results of the Presidency of Riche was an obliviousness of caste; he sought for no man’s qualitications in the color of his skin, but was ready to appreciate and reward merit, without the smalleet regard to caste. His successor has uufortu- nately resuscitated this “vexed question,” by displacing men of color possessing merit in order to make way fur negroes, whose only recommendation, perhaps, is that they are black; it is even sufficient for one of his own caste to incur his displeasure if he is suspected of a leaning to the colored population. ‘This feature of his character is highly approved of by ‘the unlettered, whose prejudices against the lation amount almost to a savage ferocity, Iam no apologist for the mulattoes—I merely state their present grievances in so far a3 President Soulouque has con- tributed to them. On the 13th of April the caanonsof alarm were the people in this city assembled at the res ports, and in a short time the wretches in the called pickets, but justly meriting the name derers, were roused from their ordinary lethargy by the promise of their chiefs to massacre and pillage the city. They collected in large numbers in its suburbs, knowing well that they would be supported by the President ; sensible, also, of their strength, boldly threatened destruction to any who shouid dare to op- pose them. On the 19th ult., they entered with very little resistance, and took possession of this city. 4 soon as they had placed their oficers in charge. imme- diate preparations were made to march an army on Cavailon, where Louis Jacques, a negro, had collected some hundred men to overturn the President Soulouque. The people of color, almost without exception, were forced to march and, were most cruelly treated at the commencement of the campaign. ‘The said army ar- riving, entered and took possession of the town without much difficulty; although a great number of muskets were fired and about twenty discharges from the can- non, no one was killed except a thief. with his pillage, by a cannon ball. All the prisoners that did not eifect their escape, were fut in prison. Louis Jacques. who finding many persons on his entry in Cavaillon, not disposed to cuncur with him, had a Inrge number imprisoned several days previous.’ Now commenced a ‘uel scene of most inhuman barbarity. ‘As soon as the village was in possession of the attack- ing army, they seized Louis Jacques, beheaded him stuck his head on a pole, sent it to Aux Ca,es, where it was exhibited to the public gaze for two da; the prison was throw open and an indiscriminate slaughter of the prisoners took place, which did not finist un- til all that were in prison, amounting to 136 persons were killed. The brutal fury of the sanguinary sol- diers was. not satisfied with’ simply killing their vie- tims ; for er death they were cut and mangled in such a horribls manner, that on the ne re of the unfortunate victims were friends or most intimate acquaints thirsty wretches, having glutted themselves in blood, next betook themselves to pillage the town, and here their recklessness was exhibited in a forcible manner, for what they could not conveniently carry away. they eut up or broke, such as bedding and furniture large quantity of coffee was thrown into the river. The town was deserted by such of its inhabitants; as es- caped the vengeance of their persecutors. In this d serted condition, it still remains, and will probably for along time tocome. I ought not to omit mentioning that women and children were also beat and otherwise il treated. ‘The army now marched for St. Louis, which they found deserted by the inhabitants, from thence they proceeded to Aquin. a seaport town. The inhabitants having heard of the horrors commitied in Cavaillon, fled with precipitation. content to abandon their property if they could only save their lives. Most fortunate, for them, there happened to be in port a small schooner on board of which many of them teok refuge and proceeded on board of her to Curacao. As pillage was the motive that prompted most of these scoundrels to take np arms, here they were at liberty to give full swing to their bent. They seized upon the most valuable portable goods; what they could not con- veniently carry, they waat only destroyed. Thus in a few hours were the peaceable inhabitants reduced to the lowest depths of misery and dvstitution. As soon ug these savage triumphs had been accomplished. the President agrived and publicly declared that he de:ply regretted the misfortune which had happened ; but by his conduct justified every thing that had been done and permitted his wretches in the face of Heaven ; ai noonday, to send the pillage of these unfortunate wretches to Aux Cayes for sale. ‘A few more remarks. particularly on this city of Cay: will terminate my narrative, Since 19th April, rsons of the highest respectability, and partic ople of color aud offisers of the highest stane¢ ere thrown into prison, Not knowing or imagining the cause of their confinement, treated in the most crusl and inhuman manner before being judged or examined for any offence during the day. they were conducted by the savage pickets and compelled to pe i which it is only usual to employ crimaals they were working as hard as it was possible were frequently and severely beaten indeed, that a person whom | know and who I w: habit of reeing frecquently, happened to incur pleasure of the authorities, (for what reason it is to me asto him unknown) was passing my house, when if | had not had my attention drawn to him, I should not have been able to recognize him from the manner in which he was beaten and difigured by his guardians In the prison es of a inost horrible nature have n enacted ; the recital of them would make your blood run cold.

President Soulouque arrived here on the ‘th instant. During the last few days, he has done nothing to in- spire the least confidence, aud it appears very evident that he is well disposed to sanction his wretched parti- sans in their wish to exterminate, by exile or otherwise, the colored population, and then’ to confiscate their property, If I have taken up the pen at all upon so gloomy and repulsive a subject, it is that the civilized world may not be unaware of the atrosities that are being perpe- trated in this * model republic,” as, admitting the edi- tors of the journals that appear weekly in Port-at- Prince were disposed to record what tales place, the President would not permit it. If a press exists, il ex- ists not to exercise ite weighty, but kindly and correct- ing influence on the faults of those who are at the head of affaire—but meroly to record what takes place in the chambers, without note or comment. | trust, then, to your sense of justice for the publication of the facts 1 have here set down to the enlightened and generous population of the United Statos of America; and through the extensive circulation of your paper, it will bo immediately made known to the other civilized na- tions of the globe.

The blacks are decided upon, and publicly declare their intention. without shame or re- serve, of exterminating the colored population, without distinction of age or sex. They wish the country to be ruled and possessed only by ns of pure African blood. You will, I think, readily agree with me, that this determination on their part could only have ema- nated from persons of pure African blood. Neverthe- less. it is but too certain that they will accomplish their hellish intention, should not the civilized nations unite to prevent it. But certainly they can never look on, unconcerned spectators, in a case where the odds are 80 great, and especially upon such a revolting scene. 1am shocked when | think of my own proximity to these wretches, who could even for a moment entertain such an intention. Justice to them, however, compels me to say that I have always gone and come unmolest- ed amongst them, although I have only remained in the different parts of their country less ‘than two years, Murders and assassinations are of daily occurrence. ‘The night before last, two distilleries were set fire to by an incendiary. Those among the colored population who possess money, are leaving the country as fast as they can. ‘Yhose unfortunates who have not sufficient funds to enable them to leave, must remain to meet their fate, which must be what these flends wish it. Foreign interference alone can prevent such a calamity. ‘To-morrow I shall leave the scene of these atrocitier, but the recollection of them will never be obliterated from my memory.

Griscomb and Whiting, setting forth, in substance, that no injurious effects would, in their opinion, ‘ult from the use of the pier at the North Battery for the purposes of landing emigrants. The following points were insisted upon by complainants’ counsel in the course of his argumeut: First, that a concentra- tion of emigrants at a point of the city so thickly set- tled, would be calculated to communicate to the com- plainants and others, the diseases incident to emi- grants, namely, small pox and ship fever; and therefore constituted a public nuisance. Secondly, that tho bill showed injury to the complainants in particular; and therefore they had a right to invoke the assistance of a a court of equity for their protection. Thirdly, that the North Battery being property belonging to the Corporation, they cannot erect or permit a nuisance thereon, nor, by lease, enable ethers to create a nui- sance, and that a court of equity can enjoin defend- ants to the same extent aa it might restrain private individuals. On the part of defendants. it was con- tended: First,that a court of equity had nojurisdiction, because the appropriation of the premises in question for the accommodation ef emigrants, was a matter of police regulation exclusively within the authority of the Corporation. Secondly, that the commissioners of emigration acted by authority of a law of the Legisla- ture passed in 1848, by which power was given to them to select any pler or wharf inthe city of New York, with the consent of the Corporation, asa depot for emigrants. and that the selection ofa place exclusively belonged to the defendants, who had acted thereon, and a court of equity had no power to interfere with their judgment. Thirfly, that the whole subject was a matter of government regulation, and not within the province of a court of equity. At the conclusion of the argument, Judgo Hurlbue said he had been then sitting for three months, with an intermission of only four days. and felt very much exhausted, and as he had to proceed to Poughkeepsie to hold a general term of the Supreme Court theae on Monday next, he did not think he could be prepared to deliver his opinion before the end of this month, Common Pieas, June 3.—Decisions.—Bofore Judge Ingraham and Daly.—John Murphy vs. New York Hi- heraian Benevolent Burial Soctety—Non-suit confirm- cd with costs, Ogden Haggerty vs. W.

Con.—Quite an interesting case of crim. con.almost came off at Lynn a few days ago, which has caused much amue- went to some. and consternation to others, inhabitants of that peaceful town. where, as is untyersally known, “they don’t never do such things.” What might have happened, had one party been as + willing’ as the other, can be dimly conjectured ; but, as it was, it seems that there was * nothing split but a clapboard.”? We understand that two of the actors in the by-play are brothers, one of whom is married to a rather pretty and interesting wife ; and in these days of “ liberty, cquality and fraternity,” it seems that the other brother thought he * might come in’! for a share of brotherly affection, It would appear that he made certain delicate overtures to the fair wife, who told them to her husband, but he would not believe her. she offered to convince him, and appointing a time to mect the galiant Lothario, hid her husband under the bed. She then proceeded to initiate him into onc of the more advanced degrees of matrimonial free ma- sonry, wt the same time disrobing herself as part of the ceramony. When her enamored neophyte had done tho same, the now thoroughly converted husband forth and spoiled the completion of the in- ng performances. A complaint was entered a magistrate, but as we understand it has been privately quashed, we shall kindly say no more about ithe matter.—Boston Mail, June 2. Foretgn items, Tur Rotsentvs—A Paris correspondent of a London paper states that the above house has lost 000.000 franes by the late revolution. The same correspondent affirms that one of the firm openly ac- nowledged such te be the fact. When the French loan was contracted. the New York Herald contained an article commenting with surprise on the boldness of the Rothschilds, in making such a loan. It is said ihat allthe members of the Rothschild family are as. pied at Paris at this moment. Some idea may be formed of the immense resour: of this great house, from the fact that such immense losses have not tend- od, in the least, to embarrass their payments, or retard or impede their operations. Civn or Wonkrxa Womrx at Panis—Tho Paris Presse, of May 13th, gives a very graphic account of the opening of the part a as J. Q. Adams preferred to spoak—the Women’s) Club at Paris, An immeni crowd of men attended, expecting to amuse themselves and turn the affair into ridicule; but there was nothin; in the whole proceeding, which gave tho least groun for contempt or ridicule ; all was conducted with or- der and sobriety. The female president stated the object of the club. It was composed entirely of work- women of Paria, She repudiated empbatically the in- Aiseriminate and absurd doctrine of Louis Binno, and « Communists, Fourierites, and Socialists, end stated that the ladies were to work and to be paid according to the degree of talent exbibi- tod, and the amount of work done. That part of the discourse repudiating the saalserina uate promiscuous sian of happifying all men in the same degree, good or beds idle Ge industrious, is described as having been greeted with immense spplanse and loud cheers by the assembled crowds which were present at the sitting. \ workshop is to be gre tothe club by the govern- ment, and work will be given out; also, a large kitchen is to be established for the members of the club, to pro- vide » dinner consisting of soup meat, vegetables ant at four cents each person. The lady Presi 1s much applauded, and tho project of the club well ived, Such kind of clubs have long existed in Lon- don among the aristocracy, where they dine sumptu- ously ata cheap rate. Why should nota similar com- bination or clubbing be effected among the pleboian classes of all countries ? New York axp Haver Lose or TRansattantic n@—The Journal du Havre states that the roult Company has been dissolved, and the four fri- gates given them by the government taken away from them in consequence of thoir failure to carry out the gagements and compact they had entered into. Great discontent prevailed in Havre against the com- pany; they paid no one—the crews wore kept up with- Out pay—they did nothing, and the government was obliged to interfere and ro-attach the steamers and their crews to the French navy. ety sufbit, Amefleus snd Lady Mos Trista ok age att cow are nt s ‘a the Centreville Course, next Wednesday.

Since laying aside the “cat” in our prisons, the convicts have performed much more labor than they did when it was used, and contracts for labor now let at an advance of 25 to 30 per cent on old prices.
