This is theexact point upon which the South will revolt. Their de- ‘termination is se palpable. that incredulous men begin to talk of dissolution as tveviteble, and without xemedy. There is majority of thirty iu the House for the admission of California as she is-there is a ma- jomty of ten in the Senate for the same thing. In point of constitutional authority aud law, the bas the most plausible grounds of dufence in support of this mearure, and the South the weaker side of the ar- gument, if you please. Even (ld Zack, who has not dared to smell the proviro, or touch it, or look at it, or epeak of it, or think about it, bas uot hesitated to re- commend the admission of Califormia It isthe first proposition in Mr Clay's compromive; it isthe first motion on the subject by Col.

The object of Gen Cass was to consiliate the South, Gen. Cass pleads the unconstutiouslity of the pro- Gem. Taylor washes his hands of the whole business. And yet the plan of the one is the plan of the other. an ‘point of fact, each of them is nothing else than the met proviro, The planof Gen. Cass is therefore, abandoned by the South, and the plan of Gen. Taylor, which is about the same thing, has simply brought his ‘administration to the brink of destruction Mr. Clay comes up to the question He does not propose. like Gen. Taylor. to let the Territories take cere of themeelves; but be proposes. like @ mi eo mre them the protection of goverament, bat to say nothing about slavery, which is in substance, st this time of day, the Wilmot proviso. A year or two ago. this idea of raying nothing about plavery would baye done well enough, The South ‘would then have emigrated to the territories with their slaves; but Nortberp agitation and emigration have excluded the south, aud now to say nothing, is aimply to say that the South are wholly excluded. Gen. Case, Gem. Taylor end Mr. Clay do not come up to the necessities of the care On the other hand, President Vaylor, Mr. Cass, Mr. Clay and Mr. Benton’ io urging the admission of Call- fornia as the firrt step to the settlement of the ques- tion, are urging upon Congress this dangerous issue in its mort fatal shape for it tovelves to the South all the bazards cfa complete surrender to the tender mercies of the abolitionists The adwirsion of California, by herself, gives to the North the bulance of power by « clear gontrolling mae jority in the Senate, Alresdy they have it, in fact; for Delaware. practically, is for the exclusion of slavery, though nominally a riave Stace. ° + the first step, then, The admission of (aliternia ‘would leave every otber question completely at the mercy of the Newth. This is the real difficulty—the real denger, and the real contest. The President, in attempting to evade the iesue, bas blundered into it; and the cabinet being utterly impotent, it depends entirely upom Congress to extricate the administration and the country, The time has come. Cats bas failed; Clay bas failed; Gen, Taylor has falied. The South now insist thet the compromise sball come from the North, and they declare, let.

Mr. Jefferson Davis, of the Military Committee of the , Caiitornia by herself, | senate, has introduced a bill for the increase of the rank and file of the army. It proposes :— 1, To strengthen the companies attached to the five or six batteries of the Light Artillery, from 42 to 64 the rank and file of the frontior regi- mente of Infantry, by the mumber of each company from 42'to 74 men. Thie is believed to be necessary for the protection of the Western frontiers against the Indians. The bill aleo proposes a beunty to men enlisting in the army of the trontiers, of about one hundred d: in each case. We hop avis will next bring in a bill to raise another regiment of dragoons or ¥ ers, for active service among the Camanches, Na\ igi- those devilish rillas, Arapahoes, and rep ‘of cut-throat A pac! it will be necessary during next m0 , to send a strong detachment into the Colo- rado country; and the boundary commissi: mm of the bi Gila will require an howitzer or two.

The twenty-fourth of February being this year on a Sunday, our French citizens celebrated the second an- nivereary of their glorious revolution on Saturday night, the twenty-third. At 634 o'clock, the Gardes Lafayette (the French company of militia in our city), commanded by Captain Leclére, and headed by Dod- worth’s Band, came from Duane street to the Hotel de Paris, in Broadway, where the subscribers to this na- tional banquet were already assembled. At 7 o'clock, Ladislaus Ujhazi, Governor of Comorn, who bad kindly, with bis som and & 1 Pragay, acoepted the iavita- mmittee, were presented to the principal ‘lor of the hotel, receded by th tional airs, went up Broadway, to the Coliseum, 4 ihe u a m superintenden Mr.) that magnificent establishment. jonia Ja- eS the Hungarian heroine, who had also premised to onor with her presence this national five, having ar- rived, the company proceeded immediately to the sup- m, where four large tables, ab dently spread, rs. 001 ar. rapged in avery superior manner.

Tue Prorosen Cuanor ix Rererence to THE City Ixsrecton.—The Common Council are wisely shifting all the responsibility of attending to the public health upon the shoulders of the City Inspector, where alone it ought to rest. It will be seen by reference to the City Inspector's report, that there have been eighteen deaths from cholerain the last week,on Ward's Island. it is high time, therefore, that the se should know te wi they are to look for clean streets, @ pure atmosphere, and the removal of every descrip- tion of nuisance caloulated to generate disease. For- merly the responsibility was so divided, and opinions so clashed, that nothing effectual could be done by any o1 What was every body’s business was nobody's, and the work of purification was left undone, or only partially attended to, The committee appointed by the Board of Aldermen to inquire into the matter, have reported in favor of the change recommended 4 Mayor, in his message of the first ef January. They tay they are of opinion “that the eaid depart- ment requires more help, in order that it may be rendered as efficient as the public interests The following extract from their report contains the pith of their argument “The duties of this department have increased tos great degree within the last five years, in consequence of the rapid augmentation of our population, the growth of the city. ‘the great amount of emigration from Euro- tries, causing thereby an increase of the throwing, ¢f course, upon the ent ties.
