Thus far, sixty wit- nesses have been examined on the part of the prosecution, but a great many more are yet ia re- serve, for 1t was alleged that there were, in all, eighty-six to be examined. This extraordinary cuse creates more interest and more sensation as the proceedings on the trial progress. Noclue has yet been obtained as to the nature of the defence, or what tts character will be. It will soon, how- ever, become known. The Great Senators on the Great Question, Three great statesmen in the United States Se- nate have all spoken on the great controversy of the day, and their speeches have been betore the country fer weels. Probably, since the founda- ton ef the , ove:nment, no men have been listened to with more attention or respect. To produce an efieet so profound, it is not enough that a man be gifted with extraordimary political sagacity, or uncommon yenius. He must be favored by cure cumstances, and events must be propitious. A penod like the present has never before been wit- nessed in ourrepublic. Fanaticism never went so far, and the recoil from it never became so sigaifi- cant. Demegogues and madmen seemed for the time to have filled the arena, and passion and prejudice seemed to contro! the current of events. Very nearly all the politicians of the country had been drawn into the general maelstrom, which threatened uot only to swallow up the reason and judgment of the nation, but to enguiph the com- monweakh itself. During the present sessioa, meny members ia both houses had attempted to bring forward some scheme of compromise, or, at all events, to propose some remedy for the exis tence ot the evil. But nearly all these plias were stamped with the bitterness and bigotry of their | originators, and there was no abatement in the popular exeitement on the slavery question—there was no cooling of the fever in the public miad. ir. Clay, « veteran Senator, en eloquent orator, and a celebrated compromiser in past crises, had indeed brought forward a magnanimous proposal, whieh, at any period before these fatal passions were co deeply stirred, might, and probably would, have been hailed as a practicable and magnanimous proposal But coming at the tune it did, when there was eo little calmness and reasou in the navional councils or in the popu- lar mind, it produced only a portion of the effect which legitimately belonged to it. It had become evident that the hope of the nation was limited to course, except tnrough the medium of other lips, he was listened to with veneration and respect, even by those who disseated most widely from his opinions. It is not in the nature uf go mignant- mous and bold a man as Mr. Calhoun to conceal any portion of his heart, or withhold any of his sentiments, The very exces ot his heroism and moral daring has often betrayed him into a sacri- fiee of popularity and fame with the men of his own umes, for which the future willdo him jus tice. The effeet of bis speech was, from different reasons, precively the same as that of Mr. Clay’e; and while it exhibited the disease to the pu'stic chargrd nd wale even to pronoance ie div | TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENC™, Hereafter, the Congressional and Legislat will be found on the First Page; the Market Aeports nected.

Ic is with great egret that we hear of such pro- ceedings in CJagress, as took place in both houses yesterday, At this distance from the ecene, we can hard!y form a just opinion of who is right, or who 18, wrong, as regards the altercatron between Sena- tors Benton and Foote, in the venerallle body to which they belong. Both, however, are, in our mind, like bis predecessor's, it prepared the way | opmon,to blame; Mr. Foote, for commencing a for something else, both stronger and more effi- cient, in the form of compromise. It was the second great step in the settlement of the Union question, because it bared, most vividly, the dis* order which afflicted the vitals ot the republic. V The hopes of the republic were now centered in Mr. Webster. By generel consent, he was ac- knowledged to be the only maa left who could fill the breach and complete the compromise ; and it was LO easy matter, we confess, for a Northern man, who must be supposed to entertain, to some extent at least, the feelings, the principles, aad even the prejudices of New England, to cast off all those encumbrances of education, to break over all the intervening barriers of party, and, in the megnanimity of his soul and the freedom ot his own will, defy all the fanaticism, and bigotry, and hostility of cliques and parties, planting himself on the rock of the constitution, where its founders stood, and proposing a just, great, and noble ar- rengement, by which all moderate and ratiogal men must be satisfied. We confess that we our- selves, for some time, entertained a doubt, even aif Mr. Webster, with the Herculean weight of in intellect, and the gigantic force of his will, could | achieve so great @ triumph over the passions of | the day, and the prejudices of his times. It has stamped his moral character with a sublimity which belongs to few other men, and it has given to his political character the impress of the most complete statesmanship. The rebuke he adminis tered to the cowardly agitators of the day—to the restless demagogues of every section of the coua- try—was withering and intolerable. Abached, con- founded, and overwhelmed, they could hardly re- cover from the etunning force of the blow. ‘They will, and they have already began to, send up their howl of lamentation, mixed with the cant of sociale asm on the one hand, and what has been digaified hitherto by the imposing epithet of free soilism on the other. Mr. Webster undoubtedly foresaw all this, and he knew that he would make some sac fice of popularity among the fanatics and dema- gogues of the North; but he knew, too, that truth hes, of necessity, between extremes, and that wnat he lostin sectional he gained in national fame. Feel- ing the republic pressing on his shoulders, he bore the Atlean weight with composure, firmness, and dignity, and by the mugnanimity and greatness of his conduct, has gained the gratitude of sensible and patriouc men, and secured what he had never before achieved, the certainty of the gratitude ot the whole nation, throughout posterity. The Massachusetts Senator now occupies a most enviable position. Superior to the transient and local passions of his time, Junus like, looking atthe same tme upon the past and the future, and midway between the two, acting for all tune, he has perhaps accomplished a task more difficult than has been given to any other man since the organization ot the republic. His great speech | was the third great step in the compromise of | 1850. Wee still hope that, with such patriot states: menas Clay, Calhoun, and Webster, includiag | Cats, Foote, Benton, Bell and others, the republic, | torn and distracted as she is by demagogues and fanatics, and drifting, as she has been for a loag year, in times more perilous than she ever knew before, without guidance or direction from the President or his Cabinet, she may yet weather the storm and moor herself still more securely than ever on the rock of the constituuen.

In fact, there 18 mot a great deal to choose between them. The course of each was unworthy of the position and charae- ter of the Senate. While it is to be admitted that both of the gentlemen were rather hasty, the lan- guage used by them, and their conduct on the occasion, show the deep feeling which exists on the slavery question in Congress. We would not be at all surprised to hear of a hosule meeting taking place between the two Sena tors, although we trust that nothing of the kind will occur. If there be bloodshed, in consequence of anything growing out of this unfortunate slavery question, its settlement will be delayed for an indefinite time, if pot for ever. We had hoped that the worst of the excitement was over, but we now entertain most serious fears for the future. In{the House, the proceedings were of an equally exciting character. We are of opinion that Mr. King 18 in error. We think the Speaker's expla- nation of the alterations in the journal, eught to have satisfied Mr. King that no wrong was ia- tended. Such, we think, will be the tenor of the report of the committee of invei ion who have been appointed to look into the charge. The application of Mr. Forrest for a divorce from his wife has been virtually denied by the Legislature of Penneylvania—or, rather, ithas been referred to the courts in Philadelphia, to be tried, we suppose, before a jury, on a feigaed issue, ace cording to the usual course of such proceedings. This will be more satisfactory to Mrs Forrest, as she will have an opportunity of submitting to the jury evidence to disprove the charges which have been made against her, and rebut the evidence which Mr. Ferrest brought before the Legislature, and explain away the impressions which he formed from the information that reached him. The Latest from Washington, OUR SPECIAL TELEGRAPHIC GORRRSPONDENCE. Wasninares, March 26, 1850, This has been an exciting dey in Wasbington, as you will perceive by the proceedings of the two houses, @ report of which you will receive by telegraph. Im regard to what tranrpired in the House, the general impression is, that if Nr. King do not make a full spelogy, ill be expelied from that body. There was terrible confusion m the Senate, caused by a Personal altercation between Senators Benton and Foote. Mr. Foote, too, is condemned for the course which he pursued. and Mr!Filimore is blawed considerably for eillowing such a scene to proceed, but he is partly ex evused,as bishearing is rather defective, and he may not have heard sll thet travepired. It is thought tnat this unfortunate business will pot very s00n Of very peaceably In fact, bloodshed is expected before it Is Gnally disposed of, It is feared that this alterca- tion will bave a serious effect on the settl: slavery question. In thie connection, | that it is expected a large party will rally around Mr. Benton in opposition to Mr. Feote's committee of thirteem, There can be no question thst the oscur repces of to-day widen considerably the breach be- tween the North jouth, aod of course render a settlement of the great question more diffieult and more distant than ever.
