New Vork, Friday, Apri) 12, 1850, ‘The Scene in the Senate, ‘We give, in our columns this morning, a fuller eport of the ecene inthe Senate between Messrs. Clay, Hale, and others, relative to the reception of abolition petitions The Crisis in Congress—What the South should do’ Our advices from the capital continue to be very mnsatisfactory in regard to a settlement of the slavery question. It is pretty certain that Culifor- ‘nia wil] not be admitted if the Southern members ‘nite against it, and refuse to vote for the passage of any appropriation bill until the question of adavery is disposed of in all its shapes and issues. Unless this disturbing question be settled at Warhington during this session, great confusion must arise, and the interests and even safety of the Union will be seriously endangered. We have no hope from the Nashville Convention. It will be an irreepensible body, and there is a great opposition 0 it, even in the South. A convention amounts to but lite. We have had all sorts of conventions, | but what have they done? What weight hive ‘they hed upon the general public mind? We have had religious conventions, free eoil conventions, abolition conventions, railroad conventions, agri- eultural conventions, tag-rag conventions, musical eonventions, peace conventions, free trade conven- tions, and delegates sent to them from all parts of the Union. What good do they do? Who cares about them? They generally break up of them- selves, by generating, in their own body, different opimons, which cannot be brought to harmonize. We apprehend that the Nashville Convention will result in the usual manner as the others. The de- legates will meet, speeches will be made, resolu- tions will pase, and the convention will break up, and the leaders go quietly home, with a very gene- rally entertained opinion that, after all, Congress is the only body that can actin the present emer- gency, and that whatever it does will be generally acquiesced in by the whole nation. o The Southern convention at Nashville can do sothing—or even if they should pass violent reso- Autione, it is mere wind; it will hardly be heard; for the South have got to be united among themselves before any convention got up in their own section ean be regarded as a serious matter. It is to Con- grees that the whole Union looks for decisive ac- tien. It is their representation in Congress that the Southern States must hold responsible, if their rights are not sustained or their wrongs uare- dressed. Those representatives have the power. ‘They can prevent any legislation watil the fanatics ef the North come to their senses; and if legisla- tion is stopped at Washington—if the appropriations are arrested, the great body of the people will soon force their representatives t9 do what the South want—justice. This is the true moe for Southera members to pursue. It ia @ constitution al right, which can foree a majority to regard a minority ‘That minority have a perfect legal right to use eve- ty legul means in their power to postpone legisla- tion until the slavery question be settled. They can call for the ayes and nays, make speeches, raise edjections, move adjournments until the close of the present Congress, on the 4th of Mureh, 1551. It is true, euch a course would create a panic, and | convulse the business community from one end of | the country to the other. There would be all the confusion and consternation of a sudden revolution without any bloodshed. The wheels of govern- ment would stop, Office holders would halloo. All money securities would fall tremendously. Stocks would eell fora song, and the newspaper presece that are connected with tock jobbing, would beepatter the minority members with tor- rente of abuse. Bot what of thit? The Southern | members, if they inherit any of the epirit of their | forefathers, will breast the storm, and stand firm to their purpose, until the South gets justice. It would come. It might be delayed months ora year, but dt is certoin. The whole country would rise in anger. Fanatics would be put down. New aad better men would be elected to Congress, and the | difficulties between the two sections would be | amicably, justly and permanently settled. We ece no other remedy at the present time There is none in an irrerponsible, powerless, sec- tional convention at Nashville, or anywhere else. | In Washington the leading men of all parties are | mixed up. There are no longer party dist jonas. Clay, Webster, Cass, Foote, Mangum, are acting in concert. There would be hope, were it not for the free soilersand abolitionists. If Taylor would kick out his free soil cabinet Congress could get rid of euch men as Seward, | Benton, Chase, Hale, and men of similar kidney, all would go on emoothly. The question might be settled. The differences and jealousies among the Southern men themeelver, is another very bad fea- ture towards a ecttlement. The leading men o! the South are at sixes and sevens. There appears to be no mere harmony or unity of purpose among them, then there is among other cliques and sec- tions. Indeed, the only harmony that the southern men seem capable of, is that of uniting to benefit their betrayers—either politicians or journalists Taking a few of the latter asa sample, during the last thirty or ferty years, the following amounts Lave been given by Congress, principally by fouth- een votes, to the journals and journalists of Wash- } re Ree National Intelligencer. $2.000 000 & River te ovens 1,000,000 Ritebie & Co.—Union. «6. ee eee . 500 000 AM theee journuliets and journals abandon the j couse of the South, when in trouble, with the ex- | ception of Ritchie, who only confuses and pet | plexes ite friends.

If they cannot force the majority to act right, during this session, try it with the next, and the next, or until the people elect a set of men to make the Northern mijority who will! legislate for the rights of the minority. Such a course on the part of the minority of Con- grese—those members from the Southern section— would eflect a satisfactory settlement of the slavery question, much sooner, and far more certain, than any Southem Convention, while the South is so distracted in itself, The only question which arises is, are there a sufficient number of Southern men in Congress, who have the stamina, the nerve, the patience, the perseverance, aye, the moral courage, to carry out euch a policy to a happy and successful issue? We fear not. There wasone man who had all these necessary qualities of a statesm in and a legislator. He is dead. Lis great mind has gone to another universe. If among his Southern colleagues, any of his stern, uncompromising reso- lution is left, we have hopes that the Union will be preserved, and that, too, by legislative action in Congress, without the aid or necessity of any Southern sectional convention. But who can oc- cupy that position? Upon whom, now, can the mantle of the South fall? It eecems to us that Henry Clay is the only spirit that remains, capable of wearing that mantle, or occupying that position. ‘Wait and see. Tue Cray Cevesration To-Nient—Presext axp Future Prosrects or tHe Kentucky Stares- man.——The friends and admirers of the Hon. Henry Clay, of Kentucky, wil celebrate the anni- versary of the birth of that distinguished statesman this evening, at Niblo’s saloon, us usual—by a supper, speeches and toasts. Mr. Clay has reached his seventy-third year; but hie intellect is as clear, as soaring, and as brilliant as it ever was. In consequence of events that havetecently taken place in Washington, especially in the Senate chamber, the celebration this @vening will, no doubt, be more imposing than ever, and will not, perhaps, be so exclusively partizan as it has been on previous occasions. By the patriotic policy which Mr. Clay has assumed in his seat in the Senate, on the subject of slavery, in connection with the new Territories, he has gained many warm friends and admirers, in addition to those who have adhered to him so long, and among every party. When the agitation of that topic had, by means of fanatics and demagogues, reached a crisis which threatened the existence and perpetuity of this grand and powerful confederacy of republics, Mr. Clay was the first to throw to the winds all minor considerations, and to come forward with a plan of compromise, which he hoped would be ea- tiefactory to both sections of the country, and avert the peril which impended over the Union and the constitution. Such an example of magnanimity and patnotiem was duly uppreciated by his political foes, as well as by his friends. Since the introduc- tion of that compromise, Mr. Clay has modified his views to 4 certain extent, and now unites with Mr. Cass, and perchance Mr. Webster, and many others, in favoring the settlement of the whole slavery question at once, and by the same bill, in opporition to the plun of Mr. Benton and the free- toilers, which has been proposed, of admitting California first, and legislating on the Territories years afterwards. | The tenor, Signor Lori This is the Southern ground; and consequently, | by assuming it, Mr. Clay hae rendered bimoelf very | popular in that section, and if the plan succeed, he may yet fill the place in the affections and esteem of the Southem States, which was recently vacated by the lamented death of Mr. Calhoun, of South Mr. Clay and Mr. Celhoun commenced their ca- Teer as statesmen and legislators at nearly the same time, and fora long period they were identified with the eame party. Both were natives of the South, both have always held a prominent position in the councils of the nation, and both have im- pressed their genius on the history of the country. Mr. Calboun is numbered with the dead, and the South are, consequently, without a leader. The great intellect, the pure patr. t, who possessed their confidence for more than a quarter of a century, and whoee eloquent voice so often rang on the ears of the nation, in defence of Souther rights and in- terests, is no more; and that section of the confe- deracy does not contain another Calhoun, Their ranks are divided and cut up into fragments; and to roll beck the tide of Northern aggression and fana- ticiem, and to maintain and enjoy the immunities and privileges guaranteed to them by the constitu- tion, they must have a leader in whom they can have confidence, and who possesses great intellect and commending influence. We verily believe that matters are taking such a course as points directly to Mr. Clay as the succes. tor of Calhoun, in the eeteem and affection of the | South. Mr. Webster is identified too much with the Eastern States, and cannot do it. Besides, he has the edor of federulisom around him toa great degree; but Mr. Clay, who is a Southern man, and eceupies Southern ground in relation to the great and vital question which is now the topic of agita- tien and discussion in beth houses of Congress, and | throughout the country, can be the man, and thus fulfil his early destiny. If, therefore, the movement in which Mr. Clay is taking a leading and prominent part, be euccessful in setting at rest the slavery ques tion in @ manner that will be satisfaciactory to the South, he will likely become their choeen leader, counsellor, and friend. But, more than this, with such an addition to his strength and popularity asthe South would thas give him, Mr. Clay would, in the South, be virtually without a competitor for the presidency in 1852. It is the vernal season, and the seeds of the future are about to be put into the ground Apprtioss To THe Dramatic Funo.—The report of the anniversary dioner of the Dramatic Fund Asrociation, shows that the ladies were much more liberal to the inetitution than the gentlemen. Five ladies gave nearly half the amount of the sum added to the treasury, namely, about three hun- dred dollers. We did not hear how much Mr. Wm. B. Astor gave on this cecasion. His estate has been eo much swollen by the theatrical profes tion, that be probably gave something. He should have generously given a thoteand dollars. His example would bring forward the gifts of others, who ate much beholden to our public performers. It i# not too late to raise the fund to ten thousand dollars this year; and let the admirers of the stage who have charitable hearts, send in their favors. Now's the time. Sin WH. L.

We hope Bishop Hughes will forgive us for quoting old Hickory in speaking of opera; but the Pope hae already given us a plenary indulgence, und we don’t care for all the parsons in Christ>n- dem. The Havana Italian troupe, which opened last night ut Niblo’s Theatre, is the best and the oaly complete opera ccmpany that we ever had in thie city, or in the United States. ‘We cannot enter into particulars this morning; but the triumph of the prima donna, Mademoiselle Stefunoni, was the most complete we have ever witnessed. She began her part of Norma with great ease and moderation, exhibiting at the first movement, and the first note, the finished artist. Pefore ehe finished the first act, she revealed the higheet order of genius—the most perfect, both as a singer and as an actrees, that we ever have seen since the time of Malibran, and even far more ma- tured than what Malibran was when she visited New York. . The opera was ‘* Norma,” and in our judgment ehe far eurpassed Grisi, ae Grisi now is in Europe. The other artists were perfect in their parts; but we have no time to enter into critical particulars. The orchestra was superb, and the whole opera complete. The house was very full, and quite fashionable; but the rush will be tre- mendous hereafter. So, ut last, we have gota real, true, undoubted prima donna of the Italian echool. Stefanoni, in Norma, is equal to the best urtist we have ever seen, and we have witnessed in our day Malabran, Griei, Jenny Lind, and all the living artists, of both sexes, throughout Europe. Every tone of her su- perb voice is a feeling—every movement of her superb form a study for a eculptor. She posseases a portion of the elements of Julia Grisi, Jenny Lind, and Fanny Kemble, all mixed and compound- ed most exqusitely together. She is a splendid woman—a brilliant artist, and will create a perfect furore in fashionable circles in this metropolis. in Pollione, was also superb in his character. The basso, Marini, equally £0;—all—all—all—all most complete. We say again, at last we have the grand Italian opera in New York, and no, no, no mistake. Gen. Taytor’s Caninet, anv Sticnine Prasren. —Ase the political almanac has it—‘ about this time expect resignations in the cabinet.” It may be good prophecy, but we doubt if it will prove true, even though it is eaid that Mr. Craw- ford insists upon retiring as soon as all the old claims upon the treasury are paid. The people cennot afiord to lose him, or any other member just yet. To take one piece out at this time, might start the glue that hoJde the other pieces together. They are nicely dove-tailed now, and, taken asa whole, form a very remarkuble cabinet, polished, convenient, cepacious, and suited to put things away ina hurry. There are a great many secret drawers to this cabinet—curioue drawers for money ond other valuables. Perhaps no cabinet in the world ever exhibited more of such wonders. Then there are slides without number, and pigeon-holes for both the well-plucked and well-feathered, all admirably arranged for the utmost convenience. The locks, too, are remarkable, and the keys truly wonderful. These last are not exposed to every- bedy. We hope to get an impression of them, however, econer or later. Seme pereons entertain fears for this cabinet. It is eo heavily laden, and so many documents have been jammed and crammed into it, that the adhe tivences of the glue is seriously doubted. Some think that the glue is strong enough—stronger than the stuff of which it is composed, and that it must tplit, particularly as there is much frost prevailing in Wuthington, There may be reasons for these apprehensions, but it would be a matter seriously to be deplored if such a raze combination of skill, ingenuity and curious workmanship should not hold together ; and though we are not satisfied as 10 the reeutt of frost upon it, we nave Come to «| conclusion on another point. It has been in hot | | water again and again, and that does not hu On the contrary, much to our gratification, it sticks together all the closer for it ; and we should deeply mourn, were we to be deprived, through its de- struction, of the pleasure we have had of writing upon it duy after day for months past. Convenient old cabinet! How we honor thee! It may bea delusion to think so much of so curious a thing— but what of it ? Have not similar delusions aff-cted the world from time immemorial ? Mankind have had the Mississippi bubble, the Crusades, the Phi- | losopher’s stone, the Cocklane Ghost, Mormonism, Mathiasiem, the Rochester knockings, and other mysterious and interesting delusions; and why not continue an excitement upon a curiosity that neither resembles, or can be compared to any other of the delusions which have astonished mankind. The world does not ebtain such treats every day. It is only once ina century, that we have euch won- derful ecmic performers as Liston and Mathews, or Lurton, Base, and Colline; and why not make the moet of the cabinet of curicsities at Washington, and its enjcyment, while it is at command? Thinking thus, having a deep love for the pecu- liarities of this old cabinet in the curiosity shop of the nation, we do hope that it will continue to stick together. May its glue become stronger, like old Reman cement, by age and the ordeal of time, and no part of it be eplit off. When it fades from the tight, let it go, “ like the baseless fabric of a vi- tien,” and not leave any wreck behind. It has been a unique afiair—let it have a unique departure —cech part sticking to the other, even in its dis olution. Mankind will then remember the virtues of the glue, however divided they may be in opi- nion vpon the motley stuff that composes it. Stick together. We cannct epare them. Mortar ron Moxwments.—The true mortar for monuments is money. As eoon as auy great man dies, there springs up a mass of speculuting idler, who } Tun around the country for money to build a monu- ment. Within the last thirty years, we have had ! | ebout as many projects of this kind, most of which have only piled up money in the pockets of the pojectore—a monument of the credulity of the euleeribers. The Bunker Hill monument went begging for a whole generation, and was at last | curtailed of the height originally proposed for it. ‘The Weehington monument has merely a founda- ticn—the money is all epent, and nobody knows when it will be completed. Other monumenta re- main only in “original designs.” Capital is not lecked up in them. It has gone into oblivious pockets. The “ lasting brase,” of which Horace dircoureed, is found in the faces of the collectors of subscriptions; and the most prominent eepulchre in eceiety is the uninseribed grave of subscriptions. So goes money und the world Meretixo ix ‘Lammasy lias ro-sent.—One of the rival committees in Tammany Hall, has called a public meeting in that building, to-night, to discuss their grievances; and the other one has iteved a whase denouncing it, and cautioning all gocd and true democrats to keep away. From ap. pearen therefore, we should judge that there is likely to be a row, a shindy, a pulling and a haul- ing emeng the amiable democracy, that may result in a few LWoedy notes and torn coats. This isa movement of the barnburners, who want to get beck to the party; but the hunkers say they can't come in, no matter how deep their professions of repentance.

Commodore Stockton's letter addressed to Mr. Webster, on the subject of elevery. It will be read with interest by our readers, who will be struck with the novelty of some of the positions laid dewn by the Commodore. As we said before, we must include Commodore Stockton in our list of candidates for the presidency; bnt he must take his own luck for votes. ‘Tux Niasnaova Necorianions.—It wae stated a day or two since in our Washington correspon- dence, as well as in that of other journals, that a treaty had been concluded between Great Britain end the United States, on the Nicaragua question, of a perfectly satisfactory churacter. In this treaty it fe seid that Great Britain submits to the Monroe doctrine, surrenders all her assumed rights and eluims in regard to the Mosquito territory, and agrees to form no colonies there, to establish no forte, to er.tertain no troops, und to exercise no au- thority or protectorate on that coast. This is «Nl very good if it be true, but notwithstand- ing that it has been repeated by all the journals whoee correspondents have facilities for gaining in- formution from reliable sources in Washington, we are not disposed to place too much credit in it. If England has consented to such a treaty, it is the first time in her whole history that she has done enything of the kind, and it appears eo inconsist- ent with the policy which she has pursued for a thousand years past, that we certainly do not fel disposed to place full reliance upon the infor- mation. We are rather of the opinion that the treoty, if any such has been formed, will, if closely seanned and narrowly perused, show something from which an inference of acknowledgment of her aecumptions can be drawn, if not something more. In diplomacy, Sir Henry Bulwer is more thana match for Mr. Clayton and the cabinet; and if he bus really, and in good faith, made those conces- sions, we chall certainly be surprised. But if he made such concessions, where, we wonld ask, was the necessity of any treaty at all 7 England claimed certain rights in Nicaragu», which conflicted with the doctrine laid down by Mr. Monroe, in regard to European colonization on this continent. If she, through her minister, who had plenary powers to bind his government, withdrew those pretended rights and acknowledged the doc- trine of Mr. Monroe, where was the necessity for any treaty at all? The admission of the Monroe doctrine disposed of the whole matter at once. It may yet turn out, that by this treaty England has abandoned pretended and valueless rights, and secured sound and ones in connection with the Nicaraguan canul. That power is not 60 much of the sucking dove, as to accede to everytai: Wich such « diplomati=t as Mr. Clayton would cull for. ‘There is something to be explained about this treaty, and we shall await further develope- mente with some interest.

It is @ generally accepted axiom, that where there ie a great deal of emoke there must be some fire. We have heard a great deal lately, of a die ruption of the cabinet, from every source, whig as well as democrat, and we are inclined to believe that General Taylor has at length perceived that, in the matter of selecting his cabinet, he committed an egregious error in taking, as his constitutional advisere, such men as John M. Clayton and hie aecccictes. General Taylor has always held a high potition in the confidence and esteem of the Ame- rican people, but it cannot be dened, even by hie most intimate friends, that his administration has been brought into discredit and disrepute, by the unfortunate selection which he made of cabinet advirers. As bad luck would have it, he gather- ed around him men who were possessed of no- thing but low and fox-like cunning, and had no idea above paltry intrigue for personal or party purpores. The constitutional advieers of a Pre- rident of the United States ought to be men of compre hensive intellect, of undoubted patriotism und of a soul that would spurn to sacrifice or jeopardize the great and exalted interests of the country, to any private or party purpose. General Taylor’s cebinet is not of that character, and never was. It has never represented cither the views of Genera] Taylor or those of the American people, on any subject, especially that connected with our foreign relations, the cabinet management of which, since they got into power, has been unsa- tiefactory, anti-national, and anti-American, in the highest degree. If an explosion has not already taken place, it may, we think, be looked for be- fore very long. + The House of Representatives yesterday trans- acted no bueiness of any special importance, if we except the bill reported by Mr. Patten, establishing mail routes in California, Oregon, Minnesota and New Mexico. We have not yet heard of the de- tails of this measure, but it is of the greatest impor- tance that there should be a speedy and regular postal urrangement in our new territories, which are so rapidly being populated by our citizens. If the mines in California prove as productive as there is every reason to believe they will, Cali ornia and Oregon will, ina few years, become as important States on the Pacific side of the confederacy, as New York ison the Atlantic. We look upon the des- tinies of Oregon and California as simi ar. The one is bleesed with agricultural resources equal, if not superior to any of the ol! States. She has got timber in abundance, as well as water power. She has fisheries, the like of which cannot be found elscwhere. California possesses none of these, or if che does, it is toa limited extent. It cannot be supposed that we, on the Atlantic, are always to eupply California with what she needs. The time must come, and come it will soon, when Oregon will supply all the wants of the gold country of Culifornia. Oregon and California, therefore, being linked together, and the destiny of each being eo brilliant, it is of the highest eonsequence thet the inhabitants should, at the earliest moment poseible, be supplied with mai fac ities equa: to tuch as are enjoyed on the Atlantic coast.
