Rew York, Tharnday, May 9 190, Nows and Reports Crowded out, Owing to the pressure of new advertisements, and interesting miscellaneous matter, we are com- pelled to leave out a portion of our California cor- Ferpondence, letters from Madisoa, Washington and other places, and the report of last night’s pro evedwg of the Common Council. Also, the fol- lowing anniversary report Annual meeting of the Weeleyun Methodist Missionary Society, New York Institution for the Blind, New York State Society for the Abolition of Capital Punishment New York State Vigilw Committee, Ameri- ean Home Missionary Society, and the evening session of the Advent Conference Meeting. The Committee of Lairtecn, and Their Doings. Our Congressional and telegraphic reports far- nish us With some very interesting fucts with respect to the great national question now before Coogiess. It will be observed that Mr. Clay has brought his report before the Senate; and we are assured the great statesman has fall confidence im the arrangements the committee’has urged, as precticable, Should Mr. Clay’s hopes be not too sanguine, we may be expected to see land shortly. Meanwhile, the position aud attitade of Congress on the report ef the buker’s round dozen may hurry up the cakes, for which the government are so deeply wnxious. It i time for something to be done, and, if Mr. Clay gets over the difficulty, a6 it is poteible he may, he will add the keyetone to the ach of his fame. We shall look with the liveliest interest for the result. California and her Destiny. The lust news from the Pacific must have con- wideruble influence at Washington, on the fate of the great questi before that body connected with the admimsion of the new territories, inclu- ding California and the settlement of the slavery question. The attempts of an unrecognised legislature, now im existence in California, to annal the revenue lews of the United States, is the first overt act, in the way of disunion, which bas ever taken place to the sume extent, since 1787. During the last war with England, in 1812-"14, some of the dissatistied Eastern States propored to adopt similar measures; and in the crisis of the tariff enactment, it may be | well remembered that the Legislature of South Carolina proposed to adopt the same policy, atja | eertzin future day, wader the name of nullitica- tion of the laws of the Union. California, how- ever, in her legislative capacity, unrecognised yet by Congress, hus drawn the sword, thrown away the ecabbard, and seems resolved w be the first State or territory to commence the serious dissolu- | fou of this glorious and biilliant confederacy: Where do we stand? What are we to do?) What is coming to pass? It is tome consolation, in this dilemma, to know that the influences which have produced the exist- | ing political condition of things in Cali .

We have very fully reported them ull, and shall continue to report the others, from | “ny to day, gratified always, without regurd to ex- the eourse of trae benevolence, by giving the utmost pub- licity to anything that may tend fo improve man- kind, or to promote their happiness. A It is with regret, therefore, that we find the mis- apprehension of what is fuir in public discussion, leading thoughiless persons to use foolish means to stop the liberty of speech. If it be necessary that Duneful opinions should be banished from society, the legitimate battery is furnished by replication, eatire and argument, and not by threats and intimi- dation. We ull have a common cause in sustain- ing freedem of speech; and, though we may ex- press our disgust or displeasure, as we may our approbation, yet there is @ limit to the mode in | which all such demonstrations should be made. We cun always do enough by retaining the true elements of politeness, even iv the presence of those who set at defiance al) reason and judgment, and who would boldly trample dowa religion, Christianity, the constitution and laws of their country, andeven adecent regard for the memory of the virtuous dead. Necessary us it may be to defeat, as the ex- pression of public opinion, monstrous iniquities of the humun tongue, there is a proper mode of doing it, and by the calm exercise of the same weapnn that designs mischief tor society. Satisfied as we are that this community desire no attacks upon the constitution and laws, and no blasphemy of the Bible and Christianity, we utterly reprobate the funuticirm of power, even against the worst of sin- ners. People may overthrow argument by argu- Hl ment in any public assembly; but they can do more, | without being charged with a trespass upon indivi- dual rights. At this season of the year, when there } is so much discussion and debate, it is pleasant to | see so many good people coming together for great | and virtuous purposes; and, notwithstanding Satan is going up and down the earth at this time, we think that he can be defeated. We have all deep interest in sustaining our laws, constitation, insti- tutions, the gospel, and Christianity ; and all Chris- tians should now come forward, hold a great mass meeting in the Park, say next Saturday afternoon, and give the country the great public view of the true epinion of this community on the gross out- rages upon public sentiment, as uttered by these abolitionists and atheists, which have been chill- ing the blood and shocking the moral and religious sense of society. Never was there a period when the great interests of this country, of Christianity, and of rationul freedom have more fally demanded a great popular demonstration, and strong and pa- triotic resolutions. A meeting in the Park would be very useful at such atime, and valuable in its recults. Cun we have it? Tria. or Ongs-Eyep Tuomrson, 1N Brookiyn.— The tial of this distinguished savan will be con- tinued this morning, before the Court of Brooklyn. We suppose it will be finished this week. We have not heard what new witnesses or fresh evi- dence may be produced; but we have no doubt it will be interesting to the public. ‘These triale—the Drurys, Ashley, and One-Eyed Thempron—have all developed parts of a very curious drama; and the additional wials and evi- dence will be anxiously looked for, in order to throw a full light on the whole batch of these mye- teries. The several courts, counsel, and jurors, on both sides of the river, have already gone through | much hard work, and they have yet much before | them. We have, in our capacity as conductor of i a leading journal, endeavored to aid and ascist the | puipores of public justice, as it is our bounden duty to do 60, und eepecially to expose the stool-pyeon system. In performing this difficult task, some yew d@eprit or jocular remark, in one or two of our arti- clee, has given ofience to Judge Greenwood and the Courtof Brooklyn. We are very sorry that any such construction should have been pat on our words, as that of disrespect to the court—fer it was the furthest from our thoughts, wishes, or feelings, to | offend in any way the Judge or his associates. ‘The courts, on both sides of the river, have exhi- | bited, in these trials, patience, labor, talent and de- | votion to the public interests, which will alwaye find support in our columns. Much yet remains to be done. The public interest in these trials has increared mueb us they proceed, though Mr. Chat- field, the Attorney-General of the State, has givea nouce to Mr Mekeou, the Dustrict Attorney | here, that he (Mr. C.) intends to come dowa and | try the Liury case himself.

We su) pose that some of the museums will be the seeu of their next experience, in gulling the eredalous people always found in a large city, as well asia the country. There is no doubt that the aumerous publications which have appeared for tne best three months, on the knockings, alphibet, and communications with good and evil spirits, connec- ted with Rochester and Stratford, are mere adver- tisements of an imposture got ap by some priave of humbugs, and supported chiefly by the Tribune and the Sua, those organs of all kinds of isms and humbug». The business, however, is shameful, in a moral, religious, and social point of view, an calculated not only to take moaey from the people, under false pretences, but toshake fuith in all the goepel history and purity. To these humbugs, whe are continually seeking to obtamm money under false pretences, for which they ought to be made to smurt ut the Court of Sessions, nothing is sacred. The memory of the dead is not respected. The living sensitive heart is not spared. The myste- ries of God himself are not regarded; and the low moral taste that would eagender and perpetuate such trickery, would, under other circumstances, and with a motive, rob agrave or pillage a church From the first, we have scouted the whole thing as unworthy of record, even; and have only given as much of the nurrations as we supposed would be sufficient to destroy any belief in the sincerity of the tricksters, or in the truth of the affair. Not so with the Tribune und the Sun. These journals have industriously worked to encourage the de- lusion, The editors of both of these papers have taken great pains to force the public mind to enter- tain the affair as important to the world. The Sun hus always been foremost in such matters. It was established upon the ‘* Moon Hoax,” and gathered fame from chronicling the history of Joyce Heth, from her childhood down to the time of her post mor- tem examination, so that Recorder Riker, Dr. Fran- cit, Dr. Rogers, and many other disunguished citi- zens, were deceived, and made parties to a stupid and gross imposition. And in this recent Stratford basi- ness, the Sum has made itself notorious for preseat- ing a theory to explain the knockings, declaring that a new principle exists between electricity and animal magnetism, that connects the spiritual with the material world, as a gate which is only to be discovered, as at Stratford, to be passed through, either way. Now such impostures are knavish, even in their simplest form, and particularly where the object is to defraud people of their money. They should be denounced as the schemes of showmen and their poor dependants, while any attempt to touch mat- ters where the human heart may be lacerated, or the faith of man in divine things can be shaken, thould be frowned down by an indignant com- munity. Patience should no longer be exercised towards impostors. They should be exposed. They shall be. From Britisu Guiana.—We have received our files of the Royal Gazette, published at George- town, Demerara, to the 13th ult. The following paragraph, which we find in the Gazette of the 13th, is the only item of interest they contain : “By the arrival yesterday of the Glentanner, 22 days fiom St. Helena, the colony receiv 404 captured Africans. The slave trade, it would appear, is being prosecuted with undiminished ac- wens on the — of Arica On = — oe en ‘ety "s 6 n ‘ater Witeh, brought in to St Helens a Beagiling piize brig, even @ 30 Africans on board ; aud a few days Levens to the departure of the Glentanuer, Her jesty’s sloop | (screw-steamer) Katler brought in to same place, an American prize brig, captured under Bra- uilian colors, with , Wreic captives of the sume te race.” ‘The above is a specimen of British philantrophy, which is of almost daily occurrence. Vessels of from one to two hundred tons burthen, filled to | suffocation with slaves, are cuptured on the Coast | of Africa, often within sight of land, and, instead of | the philanthropists putting the slaves ashore on their native soil, they take them to St. Helena, from whence they ure shipped to the various colo- nies of Great Britain, under the name of appren- tices, where they remdin until they serve their | time (allotted to them on this earth) out, in the moet abject misery.

This increase, however. is chiefly caused by the suspension tor a period of at least six weeks, which took place last epring. The prospects for the trade are represented as far from encouraging. and much dissatisfaction exists in consequence of the are Coal Company reduc- ing their prices. Their average price tor broken, egaed stove coal, at Richmond. has been fixed in their last circular at $3 20 per ton. This coal. the Miners Journal states, costs them, even at the present low rate of wages, delivered on board at Richmond, not one eent less than $3 60 per ton. without paying one cent rent for the coal in the ground, or for machinery. What motive prompts a course, remains a mystery to the trade, We learn that of the gold brought by the Cherokee seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000) was in Eng- lish sovereigns, and that the gold brought by the Georgia was coin from New Orleans, consigned to « house in Wall street. bie report of earnings for the month of April, this year, compared witb last. much tothe astonishment of every one, but upon inquiry, we learn that it was more appa- | rentthan real. The increase arises principally from the commutation money paid in by the Morrisians and other residents in Harlem, for the next six months’ ase of the road. This system of publishing one-sided statements, for the palpable purpose of affecting the market price of the security. ot be justified upon any principle of honorable dealing. doubt in the minds of those who are sequainted with the affairs of this company, from recent investigations, that the concern is not as well off this year as the last, and the ides of the read earnin dividend on its old stock is perfeetly absurd. It is possible that an ad- vance in the market price of the stock may tempt some green grocers, or other verdant individuals, to pur- chase on rpeculation, and it is alse very probable that holders may fail to realize on a moderate advance, and in locking for the price predicted by those engaged in the inflation of the bubble. the opportunity to get out there two elases of operators, It ia necessary to post them up i] bt : : | Interest on old stock dividend if made, say 2 | Net rece! ) Balance Trees Total resources... 6. eee es Kepairs, city track. new rails, ex- penses, tunnel, bridges, Re... . . preferred stock...

Monway, April lst.—Sinee our eireular of 19th ult, the reevipts at the ports, as compared with last year, have fallen off nearly to the full extent gen- erally predicted; but »s they have continued to gain- upon thore of 1847. without, as far as ean be known, any corresponding falling off in the interior stocks, the ebauces of this crop falling below 2,100,000 have been diminished. To understand this, the people of the South must know that we have seen letters from as high a souree for inte~ grity as there is in Liverpool, dated April 20th, stating: that the writers are informed. by some leading selling brokers, that the reason the market had not advanced more than a farthing, was that certain leading houses there were thuuderstruck at the news being so different from what they bad been led to expect, by letters from their agents, and branch houses, in New York, and bad ordered out on the tables, on Wednesday of that week, sll the samples of cotton they could con- trol. and designedly broke down the market, for several. mort important avd particular reasons. First, they were fteartul of the effect of any excitement in Liverpool, upon the New York market, apprehensive that it would sop shipments and raise the price of exchange, before © they could fill their portfolios with the latter at a profié of 3 or4 per cent. Another motive, with others, was _ the fact that they bad rattled off, hammer and tongs, every bale of fuir bowed they could control » short time previous at comparatively low prices, during a panic communicated to the market by the operations: of the leading bear speculators, and the oft repeated: arrertion, that the crop would turn out full 2,400,000- bales. and the remark #0 frequently made on ‘change by the managing partners of the most prominent: cotton houses in Liverpool and Manohester, that “these Southern Yankees were @ pareel of lying kpaves, and always eried short erop when there was a full one.” To produce this panic, and in- duce rmall houses to sell and depress the market, the “regulators” resorted to all kinds of triek- ery. All sorts of engines were set to work to smother any buoyancy in prices, and to break them down. All, however, failed, Holders here are impregna- Die in their position, and before the contest eloves, they will teach certain houses in Liverpool and Manchester that they bave trifled with our great southern interest & little too long; that the period of their power hag terminated. Capital is powerful, but not absolute. Witbout judgment in the proper application of it, or where it i» depended upon entirely to create an artifi- ein] state of prices, it often proves powerless, and fre- uently inflicts heavy loses upon its possessor. We huve more to suy on this subject, and before we leave it, believe we shall convince the cotton growers that they have entrusted their business to parties whe have never relaxed in their efforts to feather their own neste at the expense of the planting interest.
