adoption ofa resolution fr he Printing Committ 3 ‘The hour of twelve a:.iyod, while the Clerk was call- ing the roll, and the House was adjourned. The mes- Bage, it is eaid by some of the members, contained the Presidents reasons for approving of the Oregon bill. A Brief Statement of the Case ‘between Col. Benton and Mr, Butler—Arrest of the Par tes, Wasninctox, Aug, 14, 1848, A few days ago, at the instance of Col. Benton, we sent on to the Herald a series of reselutions against the Brevet promotion of Gen. Kearny, offered by Mr. Benton in executive session, and stated that as Mr. Butler's bill for the punishment of violations of the secrets of the Senate, had not become a law, we had no fear of the penitentiary; but if there was any re- etal casa ce acebtnedennens dateiennatnaateneeneena sponsibility om the latter, we ask to share it with old Bullion, Whether this allusion to Mr. Butler’s bill excited any suspicion in his mind or not, we do not know; but the result will show that the publication attracted his attention. On Saturday last, at midnight, on a motion to ad- journ, Mr. Butler moved an executive session. Mr. Benten eaid he did not hear him. Mr. Butler replied that the Senator from Missouri, would hear him before he haddone. Mr. Butler then went onto State that from a paper inhis hand— (whieh we suppose was the Herald, containing the aforesaid resolutions)—it would appear the Senator from Missouri, had violated the orders of the Senate ; and for the purpose of enquiring into the truth of the matter he would move an executive session, or words to thateffect. The scene then followed, in which Mr. Benton gave to Mr. Butler the lie in his throat, repeating it several times. On Sunday, after the adjournment, we heard ru- mors of the necessity of a hostile meeting, but they assumed no definite shape. ‘To-day, between 2 and 3 o'clock, while at the Tele graph office, a gentleman present informed us that Mr. Mangum and Mr. Foote had been designated as the friends of Mr. Butler, and that one of them had born» achallenge to Col Benton, We thereupon thought it time to act asa se.vant of the law. We repaired to the office of Squire Smith, on Eighth street, and under oath declared, that to the best of our belief the parties in this case were making preparations for a breach of the peace. Mr. Smith promptly despatched the police after the Senators we have named. At 3 o'clock, a messenger came to this deponent at Blackwell’s Hetel, and informed us we were wanted at Squire Marshall’s office. We went over, Col, Benton was there, Justice Marshall asked for our information in the matter, We gave it. Col. Benton remarked that that was all hearsay, and when asked if he con- templated @ breach of the peace, he laughed, and, as we understood, expressed himself perfectly ignorant of any intended breach of law; and that for himself, he was entirely innocent of any such design, remarking that he lived up there on the street, C. street, and did not like to be detained from his family; but that he would be there if he should be again wanted. Justice Marshall permitted him to go home late in the afternoon. Mr. Mangum was brought before Squire Marshall, and, after a while, remarked that he had carried a note from Mr. Butler to Mr. Benton, anda reply back to his principal. One of the officers of the law then waited upon Mr. Butler, who, we learn, was about leaving ia the cars, and securing his word of honor in the meantime, let him off till morning. This wasathis house. Squire Goddard, chief of the police, then waited on Col. Ben- ton, at his house, stated the case, and that bail in five thousand dollars would be required for his security to the law. Mr. Benton upon his word of honor, was also let off till to-morrow. The examination of the parties isto come off at 9 o’clock, A. M. Mr. Foote, who lives on the Heights of Georgetown, has also been sent after. Independently of that respect for the pease common toall men, we felt something of the responsibility in this matter; and it isa proud reflection, that a citizen, as humble as this witness, can, as an instrument of the law, bring the highest dignitaries into submission. ‘HE DOCTOR. The Elections KENTUCKY. The returns received show that Mr. Crittenden’s (whig) majority for Governer, will exceed 7,000. Purtaperensa, Aug. 14, 1848, News received at Pittsburgh, state that the returns of 37 counties in Kentucky, compared with ‘the last gubernatorial election, show a decided whig gain. INDIANA, A telegraphic despatch from Indianopolis, dated 12th inst., states that the Legislature will be democratic ; Senate, probably 27 to 23, House of Representat.ves” democratic gain thus far, 16 members. This secures “he lection of a U. S. Senator, in place of Mr. Han- megan (dem.). Anether account from Vincennes, dated August 13 says—‘ the result is still doubtful.” The probabilities however, are in favor of a democratic majority. ILurnots, Srnixcriziy, Aug. 12.—Scammon, the whig candi- date in the fourth Congressional District, has 50 ma- jority over his opponent, Mr. Wentworth, the present democratic representative in Congress, Another de- spstch says by four majority. We think both are doubtful. Mr. Wentworth was elected in 1846 bya very large majority. There are two democrats and one whig candidate now running in that district. The result for Congress, as far as heard from, appears to be as follower, according to report:—Colonel Baker, whig, no change; Harris, democrat, over Lincoln, whig, a gain; Scammgn, whig, over Wentworth, dem., a gain.

Sap Accinent,—On Friday evening last, a very se- rious accident occurred to the boarders at Harrold’s House, Glen Cove, There were about sixty in number, | men women and children, enjoying themselves on the upper piazza, in presenting and witnessing tableaur nts, When the piazza fell with a tremendous crash, precipitating them all tothe ground, a distance of twenty feet; all miracuously escaping, excepting Mr. F., of New Orleans, whose ankle was badly fractured, and P., whose arm was dislocated. A physician was on hand, and the necessary relief promptly afforded, ‘There was more fright than injury, Sap Accipent.—A small boy, of ten years of azo. by the name of Richard Joyce, while bathing at Red Hook, near the Atlantic Dock, on Sunday afternoon, ventured out into the river out of his depth, and, being unable to swim, was lost. Several men were grappling for the body during the balance of the afternoon, but without success. The unfortunate boy resided ‘with his mother in Trinity Place, near Rector street. It appears the poor mother had only buried her husband afew weeks, when sheis called to mourn the loss of her son.

August 14—6 P. M. The week's later news brought by the Acadia, and published in an Eatra Herald, last evening, had the effect, to-day, ot uusettling the markets for most de- scriptions of produce, Owing to the delay of the Acadia’s mails. merchants failed to receive their let- ters, and consequently were not prepared to engage in operations to any considerable extent. Indeed, the unexpected delay caused considerable disappoint ment, As faras the effects of the news was developed, from the telegraphic accounts reocived, they were favorable to breadstuffs generally, Flour was firmer, and sales made at 6c a 1250 advance over Saturday's rates, Corn was firm, Round yellow waa held at 4o advance ; and sales of mixed made at 236 advance. Sales of meal were made at an advance, Rye remained the fame. Oats were about the same. Provisions were steady. Pork was firm, while other articles remained about a# before, Sales’ of sugars were made toa fair extent, at steady prices. Asurs.—Sales of about .100 bbls, were made, includ ing pots, at $5 37% a $5 60. and pearls at $5 4a $6. Buxapsturrs.—Flour—The sales footed up about 5000 bbis., in separate parcels, among which were 1400 a 2000 bbis. of Oswego, at $5 25, and some small lots of do, at $5 31X. and several lots of Western at $5 25. Sales of about 400 bbls, Southern were made, includ- ing 160 Petersburg City Mills, at $5 60 a '$5 62%. W heat—Gales of 2000 bushels new North Carolina were made at 110c. The article was firmer, and held at an advance.

The steamer’s news has had no effect, one way or the other, on the markets. ‘The steamship America, for Liverpool, leaves this port on Wednesday, and there has been a moderate demand téday for exchange. We quote bills on London at 9% to 914 per cent premium ; on Paris | 5f, 28% @ 5f, 2234, 60 day bills; Amsterdam, 40% a 403, do.; Bremen, 78% a 79; Hamburg, 354 a 36. The Acadia’s mails will not come to hand until to-morrow morning, and, in the event of private accounts being more favorable than those already published, there will probably be a reduction in the ruling rates for exchange, and our local markets may experience an improvement. ‘The quantity of flour, wheat, corn, and barley, left at tide water during the 1st week in August, in the years 1847 and 1848, was as follows :- Flour, bbls.

As the season advances, the weekly decrease be- | comes greater, giving evidence that the aggregate re- ceipts, at the close of navigation, will be much smaller than was anticipated » month or six weeks since.

We | have no doubt that producers, in all parts of the coun- try, are laboring under wrong impressions relative to future prices and future demand. Hopes are enter- tained that the harvests of Europe will prove deficient, and that an extensive demand will arise for our agri- ‘puiturat products; and.it is this belief that induce the farmer to hold on to his grain, and is the prime cause of the reduced receipts. In the event of a rise in prices, we should soon see such an increase in re- coipts, at tide water, as would destroy at omeethe ex- isting idea relative to supplies in first hands We should pe be that the country was full of bread- stuffe—that onr stocks had been by no means ex- hausted by the enormous shipments of last year. It fe by no means certain yet that the harvests of Eu- rope, particularly those of Great Britain, will be even a fair average ; but it ie hardly probable that the defi- ciency will be large enough to create much of a de- mand for our breadstuffs, Btock mr Sreeey Figs Nowa re i, aa 1400 8 to 8 4 wp Io @ ono bee R Bondy Ps ” wD 1000 MM 75 3000 nase “10 10 so iedbees Po z 8 on | ae Faun Trost me R EE WO Tdstand RRO ee e 0” do 16 HO a iS So HH pd no do bso 49 Brie RR, new, full tum, | sions, 25; congestion of the di ions 2; diabetes, and New Orleans. heated, at 56c 058.

Crutchett’s chandelier in full blaze, galleries filled with spectators, including many brilliant illustrations of the fair sex. The lobbies below were occupied with spectators, including also a gay company of summer bonni Mr. Nixes in the chair, Mr. Manoom, without reading, passed up a resola- tion to the chair. R decided it out of order, as the Oregon subject before the Senate, rcoTT appealed trom the decision of the chair, and spoke upon the subject as with the view to the consumption of time. A suspicion is awake that the South intend to de- eat the Oregon bill by talking away the shred of time emaining of the session. Mr. Dickinson thought the reolution ought to be read, for information, though not in order, to aot upon it. ur Kixc—I hope the Chair will not withdraw its deci- sion. Question taken on the appeal lost, 22 to 23, after statement of the case by the Chair. ‘The Senate were about proceeding with the Oregon bill, when Mr. Arnenton asked to present a report from the committee of conference, on the disagreeing votes be- tween the two houses on the army bill. Mr. Jounson, of Ga., having the floor, on the Oregon bill, gave way for the admission of the report. Mr. Atnexton made his report, and said the House were Waiting for the Senate's action upon it. A debate arose upon the propriety of considering this report now. It was debated by Messrs. Atherton, Yulee, King, and Turney, The chair decided tha: it was not now in order, while the he ag bill was pending, to consider the report from the committee. ‘Appeal made—question taken—19 to 20, Mr Nives, in hi own ra. pocull rly dry way—The chair is not sustained. Mr. Arurrton ee ort on the Army bill. The committee reduce the marine corps beyond the number ofthe war establishment by one half. Mr. Yuter: proposed toincrease the number of the corps beyond the report of the committee of confer- ence, and was proceeding to speak in detail upon it. Mr. Brnton—When the Senator is done speaking, Ihave a word to say. Mr. Yutre—Does the Senator desire me to stop. Mr. Bexton—No, sir ; but I have @ word to say when the Senator is done. Mr. Yue went on pleading the necessity of a lange marine corps, and had aletter read on the subject, passed up another letter. ‘Mr. jBeston—l object to any more reading of let- ters, sir. Mr. Yu.rr—I consider this letter as more material than the other to a fair understanding of the subject. Mr. Benron—I object to the reading, sir. ‘The question was about being put. lesire to say a word, sir. I ask the Mr. Bavaen—t rise to a question of order, Mr. Bentox—What isit? Mr. Bavoen—lIt is this, the quest: The cha Mr. Bexrox—I give it up, sir, The reading of the paper was allowed—23 to 15. The Secretary proceeded to read a long statement respecting the marines. ‘A Voicr—Better tell that to the marinos,} ‘ir. Jonxson, of Md.—How much more 1s.there of that paper. Mr. Bentox—You can have the whole history of the,marine corps by going to the Ibrary. (Ha! ha! 8 MD, Feore=1 hope thp Senator will go on, Mr. Jounson—I move to suspend thereading.

The Senator proposes to increase the marines by at t then he proposes to retain all the officers of the war establishment. Mr. Bextron—Yes, that’s it, sir—that’s the scheme. Mr. Yuceer finisbed his argument. His motion was not agreed to. The report of the committee was con- curred in. Mr. Jonnson, of Ge®rgia, was about to resume his yument, when ir. Wenater rose and said he desired, sometime to- night, to ray a few words om this Dill. Ir. Jonnson—I will cheerfully give way to the ho- norable Senator from Massachusetts. MR WEMTER’s SPEECH. Mr. Wensten said:—Mr. President—I am very little inclined to continue this discussion, and | lem utterly disinclined to bring into it any new ex: at or war. | wish to say a very few words—first, upon the question as it is presented to us as a parliamentary question; and, secondly, upon the general questions is debate.

No motion has been made in the Se- nate berm out —y ion = — = Dhow hen urportin; respect Oregon simply aud alone, Pottbeen t subject of any objection in this branch of the legisiature-— The Presioine Orricen—Will the Senator suspend his remarks for a moment? Mr. Wrnsten—Yes, for ever, if you choose. It's of oy moment to the country what I say. (Laughter ) message was then received from the House, te- engating eefain bills ) ‘ensteR continued—The Senate has proposed an amendment to that bill. Now, the honorable Sena- tor from Missouri was right, and precisely right, when he said the amendment had no reference to Oregon. That’s perfectly true. If you look to the 14th section of the bill, which will pone de and does succeed it will see it decrees that the ordinance of 1787 be im force. So that if you refer to the bill, you will see that the amendment which the House of eprocentar lives has rescinded bas nothing to do with yes roe The fact is, the amendment is a resolution; bx the Senate wish to | ape a decree, not gon, but jsenaeaing tl tories of New Moxie alifornia, ,, therefore, | say the amendment: pro- een nol ‘to the immediate object of the bill.
