Henry Clay. In that letter Col. Fremont indicates very clearly that he and his friends in California regard very little the admission | of thatterritory asa State, and indicate t they | think they ure able to take care of themselves, and form an independent republic on the Pacific, with } all the contingencies thereto belonging. Another branch of the & element, and originating pro. bably in the same motive, is to be found in the course of Mr. Benton in the Senate, as exhibited during the lust week, in opposing, in every form and way, the compromise movement made under the auspices of the great statesmen Clay, Case, Web- ster, and others of that dignified body. In this new and singular movement, hostile to the settle- ment of the slavery question in all the territories, we find united, the influence of Mr. Benton, in the Senate and out of it, the California speculators, the free eoilers of the North, and, singularly enough, the imbecile and contemptible cabinet which has been inflicted on General Taylor and the country for the laet year and more. For more particulars of the present extraordinary and dangerous state of things in Washington, and this new obstruction to the settlement of the ter- | fitorial question, we refer our readers to a letter | from Washington, froma weil informed and clo quent correspondent, which will be found in our | eolumns to-day, and whose views are clearly, pun- | gently, and most emphatically given on this new form which the present crisis has taken. ‘The position of affairs at Washington, and the | dangers which menace the increase and multiply, ae the birds begin to sing | and the summer to approach, and as the modera- | tion and good sense of the people of the North seem | to indicate a wish for some permanent arrange went. The Southern members have declared their wnalterable resolution to have the whole territorial question settied at the same time, in reference to and their demands on the | subject are founded on good sense and wisdom o | | | deracy, seem to will see the Benton influenee, and the Benton fa- mily, with all their associates, return to the Pacific, und there attempt to erect California into a separate Tepublic and @ separate nation, themselves the only landowners, and all the thousands of gold diggers their hard-working white s'aves. ‘Tue Nicaragua NeGoriarion anv THE TRIBUNE. —Ever since the present administration came into power, and the present imbecile cabinet were se- lected as constitutional advisers by General Tay- lor, the New York Tyibune of this city has mysti- fied and misled the American people on the subject of our negotiations with Great Britain, in connee- tion with the Nicaragua question, so much 80 that we have no doubt many persons suppose it was done on purpose to subserve the views of some interested persons behind the curtain. At one time, it says a treaty has been made between the cabinet and Sir Henry Bulwer, which is perfectly satisfactory in every respect, and that it is sent to England for the purpose of receiving the sanction of the British goverument. At another time, it virtmally denies this, by saying that negotiations on the subject have been opened by the cabinet and Sir Henry Pulwer, and that theré is é¢very prospect of a settlement of all difficulties. And egain, it will re- iterate its former statement, and almost exclaim, * You lie, villain, you lie,” when any one dares to deny the correctness of its statements. The laet report of this kind was published in that journal yesterday, in whch it was said that a treaty was completed, that its stipulations were all agreed upon, that it was to be signed in the beginning of this week, and would be at once transmitted to the Senate for ratification, Sir Henry Bulwer being aymed with plenary powers to conduct the nego- tiation to a conclusion; and finally, thet there has been very little modification in the terms proposed by Mr. Clayton, whatever those terms may be. | ‘This is the last report of the kind, and, as usual, we suppose it will be contradicted to-morrow or the next day, in the same journal. We have very good reason for believing that there has not been any treaty concluded between the cabinet and Sir Henry Bilwer in relation to this matter; and equally good grounds for knowing that the British government, through its minister at Washington, has no idea of quietly retreating from the position which Lord Palmerston assumed openly in the Britich Parliament, a year or two since. He stated, on that occasion, in the etrongeet language, that he would not surrender British rights (2) in Nicaragua, and that, if necessary, the whole force of the government would be applied to maintain them. Is it likely, then, that at this pe- riod, with such an accomplished diplomatist as Sir Henry Bulwer, and with such an imbecile and wishy-washy cabinet as General Taylor has around him, that Lord Palmerston would ebandon the ground thus laid down, and surrender everything to Mr. Clayton? Certainly not. But we think we understand the drift of all these rumors of settle- ment—of a treaty being concluded—of the govern- ment of Great Britain having surrendered u) all its pretensions. It is pretty well known that certain parties are in the market with the stock of the com- pany that have got the right to construct a cana) through the territory of Nicaragua for the purpose of connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. | Such reports are calculated to have an influence on sales, and to induce capitalists to embark in the enterprise, who would not advance a dollar or touch the stock, even with a pair of tongs, unless ell matters of controversy between England and the United States, in connection with the Nicara- gua question, were settled and disposed of and put at rest for eves, one way or the other. ‘The preeent cabinet had a noble opportunity of taking a firm and patriotic stand on that question, and vindicating the rights and interests of the United Stutes in connection with it. They could have done this very easily, by merely sustaining Mr. Hive in the course which he pursued while Minister of the United States, and upholding the tresty which he negotiated with the government of Nicaragua. That treaty conferred on the United = tes exclusive rights and advantages, which would be of the most essential importance to us, and disposed at once of the assumptions and pro- tensions set up by England. Inetead, however, of | submitting it to the Senate for ratification, he throw it under the table, and nothing was heard of it | until the New York Herald, through its correepon- the most undoubted kind.

Why, then, should not the whole | tion affecting those territories be settled at | once? Did not all these territories become the | property cf the United States by the same treaty? and why cannot the disturbing questions, in relation to their local government, be determined in the fame way in which they were reecived from Mexi- | 0, by one law und one legixlative movement in Congres#? The course of Southern mer in insisting on & general eettlement of the whole question is, there bnt on good sense and discretion. The motives of the cpposition of the free coilere to euch a policy, can | easily be imagined. They want the slavery qu | tien left open for future agitation. The suicidal | policy of the miserable cabinet of General Taylor seems to concur in the same object, and from the acme tive as that of the free soil agitators and Northern divunionista.

We do ret leck for any settlement of the Nicaragua question, of an honorable or advantageous charac- ter to the United States, while Mr. Clayton is in office; ond if any treaty should be concluded by the present cabinet, there is every reason to fear that it will barter away rights and privileges of great importance to our interests in California.

One of the imdus trious gentlemen, in the Jowrnal of Commerce, says the most “impartial” topic of inquiry on the Gal- phin affair, was to have been a “subject of special instruction” yesterday. He then adds, that the Pre- mdent is very uneasy, and that, in speaking of Mr. Crawford’s statement, that he had consulted the President on ‘‘the subject,” the hero of Buena Vista replied, ‘I knew no more about it than the man in the moon.” Very likel’. But then the President is the man in the moon. The moon is the cabinet, und “comes more near the earth than it was wont, and maeksmen mad.” We like the man in the moon. We have always liked him, from the time “the came down too soon, to inquire the way to Norwich”—but we detest the moon itself. It hasa pestilential influence, and is always asso- ciated with lunatics. We are glad to have a new candidate for the next Presidency. We goin for the “Man in the Moon,” as a capable candidate for the Presidency. ALLIANCE witTn Switzexcanp.—We publish, in another column, an article from the National Ga- zette of Switzerland, suggesting the importance of an alliance with the United States. As we have litle commercial intercourse with- that govern- ment, the suggestion will not take root so rapidly with us as could be desired. Yet, if the government of the United States were to consider the great na- ‘taral importance of this country’s standing between Phat country and the encroachments and brow- besiting of allied crowned heads, it would be well. There should be as much sympathy of feeling be- tween republicag goovernments as there is onenese of interests. The Swiss affair recently suggested the lengths to which the absolute governments of Europe will go, if necessary; and diplomatit rela- tions with the country of cantons would have a good eflket upon the cause of tational libery throughout the world. ~ Panama Passport System.—The Consul of New Graneda seems to have been justified, if we may judge by Mr. Secretary Clayton's letter, in another column, in instructing our citizens to obtain pass ports before proeeeding to Panama. The letter epeaks foriteelf, ‘The Fine Arts, Tur Nationa Acapemy or Dausien.—Tho twenty- fifth annual exhibition of this !nstitution is now open on Broadway, At no other place can no favorable, fall, eatisfuctory, and just an appreciation of the ad- vancement in the art of painting, as connected with New York and the United States, be obtained as here, The stranger who seeks to know our best artists ean have an opportunily of acquainting himself with the styles of the various painters In the metropolis, and can readily trace the ruling charac!e-isties of each. We have among us many artiste who have risen to great distine fon by the force of their homely genius, unaeristed but little by a familiarity with the works of the ‘old masters. A strong celf-relinnce’ and sealous, untiring Industry, usually have produced all the great rerults of which one ar can boast. Notwithstanding all hat may be deemed bars to ad- vancement in the art, thee ae those who contend that a residence abroad. and visits to the Louvre and Vatican, are by no means essential to euccess. There are painters among us who exbibl @ fo ee and free- dom of style, originating in an uneramped genias, who may well be proud of the distinction they have earned. As far as our observation extends, the mere- triclons style predominates more in the works of those who have resided in Italy ond France, than of those who have been denied euch « luxury; and. it not invidious, we could particula ise, to establish the |: ath ofthe observation. Our painters, like our merchante, are full of energy, enterprice, and daring. They rise from humble villages and remote districts, and “go right ahead” in the art. One of the beet portralt painters | in this State was a chair painter, who one day kicked the chairs over, and declared he was born for something better. His first works proved thet he had not esti- mated himeelf too highly. His portraits, painted thir- ty years ogo, are still fresh in color, and are beautiful ftudies for freedom of style. In! him, but in Albany many mom remain to exact admiration. elty, born in the same village with this unfortunate painter, has had few advantages, yet he is second to no one in his historical paintings. His style is masterly, | and he advances by his own works, unaided by any ad- | ventitions elrcamstanees There are many others whore porttions are as high, and who have struggled into fame by the mere foree of their own merits—and whose histories are fall of inte- | rest and encouragement to the faint hearted. In ex- amining, hereafter, their works at the National Acado- my of Design. we shall point out the pecullarities of their productions; and ald, eo far as we ure able, tholr alm to distinguish themeelves among their country- men. It fs favorable for them that their works oan be teen with #0 little trouble at the exhibition room of this institution, where their merits can be made known. We shell do our part to dircet public atten- tion to those artiste who exhibit skill, without regard to any other cireumstances than ruch as bear direetly upen their efforts with the pencil.
