The total crop of this year (that which has and will come to market up to the Ist of September) will not vary much from twenty-two hun- dred and seventy-five thousand bales, which will be an excess on that of the pr: vious year of about five hun- dred thousand bales, an increase of nearly thirty per eent. The increase in exports to foreign ports has eon greater than the increase in receipts from the interior. The excess in exports this year has been 635,-16 bales, and the excess of receipts 493,426 bales. ‘The extra quantity of cotton shipped from the South- ern ports this year, has made up, ins measure, so far as freights and our shipping are concerned, for the im- mense falling off in the shipments of breadstutffs, but it has by no means made up for the tremendous falling off in value. ‘There has never been a period in the whole commer- @ial history of the country, when the cotton trade, generally, was so much depressed as it has been within the past eight months. Prices during that time had deen steadily settling down, and the demand has rapidly declined. In the face of # more limited con- sumption than has been known for years, the supply has been larger than any previous period, with the exception of one year. The planters, in the early part of the season, evinced « determination to hold for better prices, and for ® long time tenaciously ad- hered to the policy; but circumstances compelled them to give way, and the crop has been put upon the market at enormous sacrifices. Had the receipts from the interior been more limited, the producers could have controled the movements of the crop more effec- tually, and there would have been less @epreciation in prices; but the supplies caxe in to such an extent that they were compelled to abandon the attempt, and larze sacrifices were submitted to. In the attempt to hold, the planters lost the Denefit of the comparative high prices ruling last fall, and finally disposed of their crops at current rates later in the season. Our planters invariably fai! in all their attempts tohold their supplies. The manu- facturers of Europe invariably break them down in al their combinations to regulate prices; and we « ust not expect to be able to keep enough of this staple out o foreign markets to have any very important influence wpon prices, until we consume more in our own limits, and make this port the grand distributing point for the world—until the cotton trade of Liverpool is transposed to New York, and we regulate the supply more by demand than we have as yet been able to do. ‘The growing crop in all parts of the Southern coun- | ary is represented as being remarkably free from all ‘those diseases which usually at tie close of the season attack the plant. In the event of the balance of the geason continuing favorable, we may look fora yield equal to any ever before realized. In Texas the crop is exceedingly prolific, and the productions will, with. out doubt, be large. ‘A late report of the Commissioners of Railways in the United Kingdom of Great Britain, shows an in- crease in the number of passengers on all the railways open since 1843, of 120 per cent, and in the total in- eome, of nearly 100 per cent., as follows:— RatRoap Trarric 1x Great Brrrar Pe Pass rec'ts.

The carriages are required to be provided with seats, and to be protected from the weather. ‘The whole amount of money which had been received for the construction of railways in the United Kingdom to the end of the year 1847, was £167,321,856.

POR THE BILL. AGAINBT 17, Democrats, (including Demoorats.......... 9 Mr. Calhoun and his — Whigs, (including M: friends) Hale,)..... sere 13 Whigs. : Five Senators, Allen, Badger, Bell, Metcalf, and Underwood, have changed sinee the. test vote, on Saturday last; and one, Mr. Pearce, was absent. Maryland and Pennsylvania, if both members had been present, would, doubtless, have given a united vote for the bill, and Maesachusetts against it. ‘Thus there would have been fifteen States for the bill, nine against it, und five divided. There is now in the House a clearly ascertained majority against the bill. But no efforts are spared by the President to gain over the number of votes requisite to its passage. His emissaries here have been all day busy in the House, with what success I am not prepared to say. This pale and hardly dieguised attempt to control the legislation of the representative branch ef Congress, on @ question so momentous 3s monstrously in- decent. In heaven’s name when will this cor- Tuption cease? Can no law pass in which exe- cutive patronage is not brought to bear on the one side or on the other? This it is that lends strength to the agitators. They complain, that, on every question in which the rights of the North have been involved during the present ad- ministration, Mr. Polk has stricken down those who were sent to guard the interests of their con- stituents, by flinging at their heads some appoint- ment, the price of their subserviency to his will. When will this system have an end? ‘ The two amendments to the details of the bill, moved by Mr. Reverdy Johnson, smooth away some of the less important of its obnoxious fea- tures. One of these amendments provides, that a writ of error may be carried up to the Supreme Court of the United States in any case, without regard to the amount in controversy; and the other provides, that the promibition to legislate on slavery shall be applicable to negro slavery alone, and not to peon servitude.

Let us briefly recapitulate from memory the doings of this long heat on the legislative anvil. Mr. Johnson of Md., led off in support of the ee beginning at half past 11, and spoke about two hours. Mr. Badger succeeded in a powerful appeal against the bill. It was an absolute surrender on the part of tha Smith. Say two hours and a_ halt. Mr. Dix, in a stron historical argument for the ‘Wilmot proviso—one hour and a half. ; Mr. Dayton, on the same side, in a capital speech, indicative of a strong, well trained mmd— one hour and a half, y Mr. Upham, in an unconditional attack upon slavery—one hour. A Mr. Bell, in a new, comprehensive, eloquent and most interesting speech against the bill, recend only to Mr. Corwin’s—two hours and a alf. Mr. Berrien, in a massive and well compacted legal argument, in support of the bill and Southern sluvery—say two hours and a half. This brings down to about one o’clock, A. M. of Thursday, an aggregate of some thirteen hours discussion. | Mr. Baldwin savage against the bill—one hour. Mr. Chea in opposition to it—one half hour. Half-past 2, A. i—An effort several times repeated to adjourn. ‘0 go. E So that, at about half past two, A. M., Mr. Niles tookthe floor with the distinct avowal that he should speak for two or three hours. Like Mr. Baldwin, he epoke to empty chairs, there being at one time only five Senators present. But in two instances he soon called in filty-odd Senators to their places on a motion to adjourn, and then he would tear away again for half an hour until the Senate was depopulated, when he would proceed very quietly, and with a good deal of humor—his evident object being the consumption of time. He spoke, as Mr. Foote said, till “ Meck Aurora, daughter of the dawn, Sprinkled with rosy light the dewy laws,” _ or about two hours. Mr. Atchinson, Mr. Bright, and Mr. Dickinson, in defence of the commit tee, sustained the debate till six o’clock, A. M., when the work upon the amendments commenced. Mr. Benton here came in, fresh as the morning, having gone off to his comfortabie bed at home sometime inthe night, with the express declaration that though he could sit out the dog days, he was not going to sit out the dog nights. He made a brief speech for the bill, because it would give governments to the territories, which they wanted above all things. Mr. Calhoun and Mr. King, and others among the oldest members, weathered the long hot night through. The day and the night were most op- pressively hot and sultry. > Mr. Bright, in his speech, said that if under this bill the South choose to take their slaves to Cali- tornia, let them go there, s Mr. Hannegan—(Very emphatically)—Yes, let them go there. Mr. Bright— sir, let them go there. This had Spied effect on Southern members, but it remains how this declaration and the votes of Messrs. Hannegan and Bright, Dickinson, Douglass, and Breese, against the proviso for Ore- gon, will'tell at home. ‘ : Mr. Benton put in a round aye for this proviso.

In opening the case, the District At- torney stated that he would be able to prove that the man who chartered the “ Pearl,” the schooner which was used to carry away the negroes, had been in communication with a Southern dealer in Baltimore, who was to receive the deluded blacks and convey them South for sale. If this should rove to be the case, all the abolition sympathy of essrs. Mann & Co., will have been thrown away. Itis bad enough to induce the poor blacks 10 leave comtortable homes, where they were well clad and cared for, but it is a still worse crime to induce them to leave, merely to speculate upon their value. We cannot conceive what defence will be set up, for there can be no doubt as to the fact of the abduction Ps, Bavtimore, July 28, 1848. The Independent Taylor Convention—Democratic Nemination—Intended Duel, §c. The Independent Taylor Convention assembled yesterday morning, and after a secret session of four hours, adjourned sine dice. With regard to the letter from General Taylor, which has been forsome weeks in the possession of the commit- tee of correspondence, they resolved, in compli- ance with his request, to withhold it from publica- tion, though at the same time agreed that it should be forthcoming whenever General Taylor or his authorized friends should desire its publication. The feeling among the members of the conven tion, with two or three exceptions, was not that of- hien to Gene Taylor, b an order to remove all obstacles to his success. Such the President stated to be one of the chiet objects of the call of the convention. Two of the eleetois, Charles Pitts and John Wesley Wal- ker, Esq., will not vote forhim as a whig. Al- though one of them, Mr. Pitts has been one of the leading whig orators of theZcity for a number of years past. " a The democrats last night nominated General Tobias 15.

Howse of: ntatives, Wasninaron, July 26, 1648, d in the reading ofthe the State of the Union Mr. and resumed the consideration of the Morehead in the Chair, OREGON BILL AND TK sURJECT OF SLAVERY. Mr. Watxace, of South carolina, took the floor, and made his maiden speech assumed, first—thet the territory of the United States is the joint property of the people of all the Statex, and is held by them as tenants in common; secondly, that Congress has no absolute power over the territory, but, on the contra- ry, the power which is granted to Vongrens to “dispose of and make all nerdful rules and regulations respeet- ing the territory.”’ is limited, und is conferred by the constitution on Congress, to uct as the trustee; third- ly, that in the exercise of this power the general go- verpment {s bound to @ limited action, and confined to the clear objeots for which the trust is created, to secure the greatest possible benefit to all; fourthly, any act of Congress which tends, or has a tendency to defeat the objects for which the trust is created, is un- authorised and unconstitutional, and, therefore, not binding. It follows, then. in order to settle the rights of property, to inquire who purchased and patd for the territory. Did the people of the non- slaveholding States do it? If to, produce the evi- dence, But they can produce no such evidence or title. The money was pela out of the public treasury; not by the people of the North, or the people of the South, but by the people of the whole Uniot ds portion of the territory was purchased by the blood of the slaveholder and the non-slaveholder, mingled to- gether on the same battle-field. The territory, there- fore, {6 the joint property of the people ofall the States. The party in the North, who have placed themselves in hostility to the South, are increasing daily in numbers and influence, They have, to ure their own language, entered into a solemn league and covenant with Frange, Englond, and the whole world, and one of the terms, is never to cease their action until the institu- tions of the South are utterly destroyed, With the in- dulgence of the committee, an extract was read from the New York Herald of the 6th instant, under the title of “ Pronunciamento of the Liberty Party,” and which emanated from the Foreign and American Anti- Slavery Society, sustaining the assertion of the gen- tleman from South Carolina Extracts were likewise read from Vattell’s Laws of Nations, pages 154 and 156, toshow tbat the interference of a foreigu governme! in the affairs ofancther, was a just cause of war. in conclusion, he spoke of the disastrous consequencos which would result if this crusade shall not be stayed. The North are mistaken if they think the South Jacks the ability to take care of themselves. There should be an end of this matter, and both whigs and democratsshould unite tosettle the agitition. SLAVERY IN THE BISTHICT OF COLUMBIA. Mr. Crowe, of Ohio, said. that at no period sinoe the adoption of the constitution, has the public mind been s0 widely awakened as now, on the subject of ala- very; and the opinions of the people, to some extent, are represented in both branches of Congress, Slave- it has always been, a disturbing element ment; and there is every reason to be- lieve it will always remain so until the iast vestige of it shall have been swept away. ‘The public pross has con- tributed largely to the difturion of light, and toa por- tion of it great credit is due for the judicious tone of remarks’ on this exciting and absorbing topic. The friends of union and republican liberty have every- thing to hope and nothing to fear from the tem: which has distinguished the debates, All efforts to suppress discussion will prove fruitless and vain. The annezatien of Texas was begun, consummated, and carried on for the extension of slavery. Every soldier who has fallen in Mexico, either from the hardships of the service, on the battle-field, or on the ocean wide, was a victim on the altar, in this free and happy land. to the dominion of African slavery. Every dollar of the national finances expended in the prosecution of the war, is, in fact, levied on the labor and industry of the people of the United States, free as well as slave States, for the extension of slavery, when three- fourths of the American people, who are compell- ed to bear the burden, are not only opposed to the extension but to the very existence of the institution, and when there is nots shadow of right in the constitution to authorize an expenditure for such a purpore. Mr. €rowell said that some time since, he introduced a bill, which was referred te the Committee for the District’ of Columbia, to repeal act of Congress of 1801, which adopted and extended the slavery code of Virginia and Maryland over the Diatrict of Columbia, It was referred to and is in the hands of the committee, where it sleeps soundly, and he presumed its slumber was never to be disturbed.— Congress had no right to extend the laws of Maryland and Virginia over the District of Columbia. ‘The laws ceased when there Stases made the cession of territory for a seat of government ; the laws could not be ex- tended beyond the limits of these States Lord Mans- field says, that slavery cannot exist bnt by positive law, because it is repugnant to rearon, and opposed to christianity and morality. The institution is so odious that nothing but positive law support it The laws to which he referred, were unconstitutional. and thould be repealed; and the wrongs inflicted on the slave and the free, dead and living, ought :o be re dressed. The cityof Washington, instead of being cursed with slavery, ought to be consecrated to free- dom. The people, for the gratification of holding in slavery afew hundred persons, ought not to throw any obstacle in the way of an abatement of the nuisance. Strong prejudices exist in some portions of the country, and especially in the free States, against the slave trade; ‘and this” is another reason why slavery should’ be abolish- ed on this neural ground. this common property ofthe whole Union, The traffic is a necessary appendage to to the institution of slavery. The practice of buy’ and selling men, women. and children, like horses’ a mules, is looked upon by those who are not familiar hey scemed | (oy y to desire to dissolve theiy electoral ticket, | with the institution, with utter abhorrence and detes- tetion. It is carried on here,in the District of Co- lumbia, where men from the North, South, East and West, meet as brothers, and where there should be no cause of offence so odious and abhorrent. The slave trade has bern denounced as piracy, and is punish- able with death, and it isso puaished by every Chris- tian community on earth. Congress ought to with- draw all support from tbe institution. A member of this body informed him that,in March last, on Pean- sylvania Avenue, a man in the image of God, was walking quletty the streets of the city of Washington, (the eeat of the general government of the United States, the example, the only free government on earh, the model republic.) when five free ruffisns, (they were not “ Virginia gentlemen,” though it is presumed they came from “Old Virginia Shore,”) seized him; aad within the hearing of the capitol, he lifted ap his voioe and asked protection, for he said he was a free man! Still, under the legislation of Congress, these men dragged him beyond the limits of the District, and took him into asiave State He was rescued only by a lawyer in this city, by money raised in this House, and in this way he was restored to his wife and children. The selling of free colored men, to pay jail fees, is a matter of frequent occurrence.’ In conclusion, Mr. Crowell asked whether it was reasonable and just that Conpress shall continue to support a system so re- pugnant to common humanity, A VoICe FOR THE SOUTH. Mr. Iverson, of Georgia, said that he intended to speak for Buncombe, and therefore the empty benches would in nowny deter him. Other gentlemen had read their speeches, and as he was a lawyer, he would follow precedents, ‘The estimated value of the slave property 1s $1,200,000,000 This is in peril; remote, it may be, but yet in peril, from the want of good faith in the: North to the compromises of the constitution. Let the people of the South look to their own safety, while the remedy isin their own hands, “ Now is the day and now isthe hour” for their sufety. If this queation be left to Congress, without check, who does not see that the South must yield to a factious majority? Is there a whig from the North who intends to vote against the Wilmot proviso’ He paused for a reply. Is there one fir the Missouri compromise? Is there one who is willing to leave with the pepple of the terri- tories the decision of the slave question? At present the safety of the South depends upon @ portion of the Northern democracy, Though deserted by the Southern whigs, and threatened by thier friends at home, they are the firm friends of the South, andthe undaunted defenders of tke constitution. If the Wilmot proviso should be here enacted, the South will look to the Senate. If they tail in Congress, they will look to the Executive veto. to save them feom the danger threatened. Generai Taylor, in his “ Sig- nal” letter, favors the extension of the ordinance of i787. Gentlemen of the South, belonging to the whig party, argue in favor of postponing this question an- til aiter the Presidential election; but the future safe- ty of the South rests on the Presidential election. While the whigs of the South look upon the election of Geperal Taylor as the ark of their political safety, thore of the North regerd him as the advocate of culiar notions. Where is the declaration of Gen. ‘aylor, “I ask no favors and shrink from no responsi- bilities!” Is his tongue hushed by the voice of ambi- tion? If be continues to close l..s lips—if he does not act a manly part, and pulist bis opinions to the world—be will forfeit the respect (as il is trusted he will.) and also the support of ali honorable men, 20 matter to what party t g belong. Mr. Iverson said that Martin Van Buren has deserted his democratic fricnds; he has been cast out from among the deimo- cratic party, as a dog on the dung-hill, to fester and purify, amidst the mass of corruption around him, and which he contributed to collect, He will descend to the rave with the brand of traitor on his forehead, and Giy “dying, he wil go down “ To the vile earth from which he sprang, Unwept, unhonored, and unsung.” Mr. Iverson alluded to Mr. Fillmore, wbo, he said, ‘was elevated to the office which he held by those who expressed their opinions in favor of the Wilmot pro- viso, and who, in Congress, acted on the subject of abolitioniem with Josbua R. Giddings, and even went beyond him. In conclusion, Gen ral Case o atull share of adviation; his letter to Mr. Ni and that in reply te mination of the Baltimore red to. purpose of shows dou! nwere y
