ANTELLIGENCE, GY TSE MAILS, Our Washiagtus Correspondence. Wasnineton, June 2, 1850. The Compromise —The President's Plan—The Course of Colonel Benton, &e. ‘The amount of force which the administration fis mustering to defeat the Compromise bill, re- ported by Mr. Clay from the Committee of Thir- teen, is truly formideble; but General Tayloris gadly deceived if he imugines, fora moment, that the dreadful array in fiver of his plan is the con- Bequence of the popularity of his measures, or an expression of confidence inthe men of attainted Teputation composing his cabinet. The coalition of the Southern ultras and free soilers with the administration, is for the purpose of creating such @ state of things as cannot well be borne by the people of either section, with a view to open resis- tance. The administration and the President are Mere cat’s-paws in the hands of designing knaves and demagogues, hof whom has his own ob- ject in view, and his own wishes to en. Yet the cabinet is tabering under the belief that they are acquiring strength, aud the toadies are full of exultation.

The buffoonery and vul gar attack on Mr Clay hod also been concocted and plonned by and with the advice and consent of the cubinet, and Mr. Bentoa acted in regard to it merely under # cormrus-ion from the President, as jevtenent General without forces. His purpose evidently was to exarperate Heury Clay, and to drive him into seme jety that should sink Clay to his own level Olay, with the instiact of propriety, at once perceived the drift of his an- tagonist, ‘Of course, after this tail Mexico, and spoke from the cards, ticularly the “ 4 possession, the secret of the : Again, Mr. Clay w myphurt new in currence, Mr. Clay will Do longer notice suything Mr. Benton may say.

Admitting that Texis, by conquest, settlement and occupation, is entitled to the line of the lower half of the river, sh« his no shadow of claim from this part to the territory of New Mexico on the upper hilf, begianing at her Southern boundary near Paso de! Noite. The mistake of Mr. Webster is, no donbt, the result of carelesaness on his part; bat it does not the less require of him a specific and prompt cor rection. It no doubt arose from the constint dis cussion upon this bill, of the disputed territory in connection with New Mexico, as if New Mexico com} all the territory in dispute ee ith regard to the capacity of the new territories to support slave labor, they are, from all reliable authorities, not worth a straw From the frontiers of Arkansas, west by Santa Fe, across the Rocky Mountain chain, down the Gila, aud seross to the mountains that look over the Pacific, near Sia Diego, a journey of 1,200 miles, the whole country is a desert of rocks, mountains, ravines, and sand plains! 300,000 square miles of the Great Besin and the territory south of the Gila are a desert of voleanic ruins, with mountains and hot springs still in action from the fires below—without timber, without rain, without soil, without a_ living thing to be seen, often fur many davs of weary travel, except, perchance, a cricket, or a lizard, crawling in the rocks, or a half- starved Indian, lost in the arid waste. The great Colorado river and its tributaries have some strips of good land; but they lie wide apart, cegregated by almost inaccessible mountains on every side, the course of the river being for hua- dreds of miles through a deep chasm in the basaltic rocks. From the sources of the Colerado to its mouth, it has a fall of probably not less than 5,000 feet, through a labyrinth of mountains more for- midable than the Cordilleras of Mexico, till it passes out into the open and unexplored desert ex- tending South to the Gulf of California; see the official reports of Fremont, Emory, Abert, Kear- nv, Cook, Lieut. Beall, Colonel Washington, Lieut. Simpson and others. The mere patches of th vast desert, such as the riband of the Rio Grande, and the oasis of the Mormons of the Salt Lake, are but scattered islands in the waste, breaking the horrid monotony of the general desolation q Such is the country about which the quarrel is pending on the subject of slavery. For all practi- cal purposes, there is nothiag in dispute except Ca- lifornia on the Pacific. If the North get that, they get everything ; and a law for the introduction of slavery, at a bounty of $100 per negro mun, into the residue of our Mexican acquisitions, outside of Texas, would be a nullity. The friends of General Cass would be willing to go for the Missouri, if it did not strengthen Mr Buchanan. The friends of Mr. Buchanan would probably agree to the omnibus, without much trouble, if its success did not enure to the benefit of General Cass ; and the friends of the ad minis- tration would, with little difficulty, consent to the bill of the committee of thirteen. if there were not a state of hostilities existing between the adminis- tration and Henry Clay. The freesoilers, and the Northern outsiders of all sorta, are, of course, de- termined to keep the question open as long as pos- sible, and to break up existing parties, by its agita- tion, as their only chance. nd thus the terrible danger of the dissolution of the Union resolves itself i pitiful squabble for the Presidency ; yet pi . the chances are still in favor of its og kept open, notwith- standing all that Mr. Clay and the moderadoes m 1 attempt to accomplish. But open or shut, there will remain issues quite enough to break demi-parties, as they now exist, and to lead to a thorongh re- organization. The cabinet will go first—the whig party next—the Northern democracy next; and, out of their ruins, we shall have a new stractnre of parties, and new candidates in the field by the quantity. The Union is safe enough till 1852. Wasurna ton, June 19, 1850. The Compromise and the Presideacy—The real Merits of the Game. The Omnibus looks better to-day. Its success depends upon three or four doubtful votes, and we understand that they are as good ag pledged for the bill. The proceedings of this day are worthy of a brief review. The amendment of Mr. Jefferson Davis, repeal- ing the Mexican (municipal) Jaws in the territories (which abolish slavery), and for throwing over the said territories, in lieu of these Mexican laws, the Constitution and the laws of the United States, was rejected to-day bya very decisive vote—19 to 29. This vote was the result, to a great extents of a belief that the constitution, proprio rigori, is spread over the territories, and that the amend- ment is therefore unnecessary. But a considerable number of Northern men, if not every man of the believe that the Mexican laws remain in force expressly repealed, and that till this is done, sla- very is prohibited under these existing Mexican laws. x number of cther minor amendments were re- jeeted in a very summary manner. Mr. Underwood next put. a very important amendment, providing for Texas or the United States to bring up a suit in the Supreme Court for the settlement oF the boundary of Texas, provided she shall not accept the terms of adjustment pro- posed in this bill. A legal debate upon the powers to sue between a State and the United States, of course, had to fi low ; and the difficulty suggested by the amend- ment led to a suspension of the day's diseussion. A\ this juncture several other very ugly amend- ments were introduced for information, to be pro- posed in their order. 1. By Mr. Dayton, proposing that on the pay- ment of the ten or fifteen million, more or less, for the disputed territory of Texas, the State of Texas shall retrocede to the United States all the public lands within her limits We suppose this amendment will be reject because the public lunda of Texas searcely ex in value the amount given to the other new States of the Union. 2. By Mr. Berrien, proposing to send back the present California delegation, to be elected over again, end to reduce her delegation in the House, from two to one. This will give some trouble. question or two with the as those upon which th bill, without some conce is made. This amendment gave great anxiety to Mr. Clay, coming, as it did, trom Mr Berrien, who is re- mrded ‘as ecarcely second to any man in the nion, upon constitutional questions, aad the fanda- mental laws and principles and practices of the | government. Mr. Clay expreseed his mortifica- | tion and regret rather sharply, at the embarrass- mpposed to the bill, and’ Mr. Berrien replied, I decision, that he should never submit, in silence, to any imputation of his motuves, in any | amendments he might propose.

The call is signed by our most influential citizens, without distinction of party. Fireman’s Insurance vine ww of this city, have declared a semi-annual dividend ef 64 cents, tal of the company. The stock is about thirty per cent. above par. The insurance companies of this city generally pay large dividends, as our firemen allow but few heavy conflagrations, to damage their profits. Allthe most combustible property, such as candle manufactories, steam mills, Xc., are ge- nerally insured in Northern offices, the agents of which, in this city, are 80 anxious to issue polici that they jump at every thing that offers.

The whig State convention, this morning, nomi- nated the following, the whig State ticket :— Bucks ; for Surveyor General, Joshua G. Hender- son, of Washington ; for Auditor General, Henry W. Snyder, of Union, a sen of the celebrated old Governor Snyder. The committee on resolutions have hed a great deal of difficulty in agreeing upon the relations. The Clay feeling is strong in a a of the committee, and hence the difileulty. r. Charles Gibbons is the representative and lead- er of the Clay party, and Mr. Gilpin of the Taylor party. The dinner festival, last. evening, pre+ sented a moet exciting scene. Mr. McMichael, the Talleyrand of the party, made a strong speech in favor of Taylor and whig principles, which was answered by a cunningly devised speech by Mr. Gibbons, in favor of “ Clay any how.” It is difficult to say whieh had the best of the bargain; buta speech, made by Mr. Charles i of —— principles, without respect to leaders, made a mostdecided impression. Mr. Gilpin is the whig candidate for Mayor, who was defeated at the last fall election. Of course, as he was defeated, he goes in for the party, any , ond the nominations particularly. Phese speeches have a most impor- tant beariog on the political sentiments of the city, which could not be conveyed to you, except by re- porting the proceedings at length. From a member of the committee on the subject, I he resolutions are of a m Lkind. Origi valiy, they but through the instramentslity of Messrs.
