We regret to learn that President Taylor wes alarming!y ill fromdiarrhaea lust evening, although sm was hoped that he would be eut of danger by this morming. Under the telegrephic head, we wublich bulletins that we received from Wasking- ton during the night. The Galphin cabinet got anether very severe mawling in the House of Representatives yester- day. They were handled without gloves, and received a terrible eastigation from whigs as well as democrats, Northern men, and Southern, Eastern and Western. That body passed, by a vote of one hundred and siateen to sixty-six, an amendment decidedly disapproving .of, and dis senting from, the opinion given by the Attorney General, in favor of allowing the interest on the Gulphin claim, and from the action of the Secre- ‘ary of the Treasury in paying it. The vote was ecmpoeed as follows:— Whigs. . Democrats Pree oller . After this strong vote was taken, Mr. Sehenck’s amendment, which we published on Sunday last, ‘was rejected by a vote of 163 to 39, and after that the House passed a resolution, by a vote of 152 to 4, that the Gulphin claim was not a just demand ‘ means to hide its guilt, all the little artifices Which | The News ‘trom Nicaragua—Enterprise in comercial Na DA CELIO EOE EA, BEES deavors to raise a breeze with that Coutry, for the purpose of covering up the iniquity and corruption | of the cabinet.

Sparing fo it resorted to for that purpose fail one after the oth- er, and they stand before the country condemned and censured by the House of Representatives, as improper advisers of the President, aud unfaithful to their offices. May such be the end of all dema gogues who seek their own pecuniary and politica’ agurendizement, at the expense of a confiding Presi. deut and « deceived people. Vhat Quadter, Our efficient charge de affaires, Mr. B. G. Squier, has atvived from his important pest at Leon di Nicaragua, where he has heen active im guarding the best mterests of this country, agzinst the curious intrigues of the Britidk govern- ment. He returns to this country, upor leave of absence, Pith a view to arrange, we de not doubt, certain affairs of great importance ‘te the United States. His mission, thus far, has veflected the highest honor upon him, and we are‘fally persuaded that @ more active and intelligent egent could not be eelected for the important position which he holds. We truet that his vieit to"Wasbington will awaken the slembering officers of the government tothe necessity of our earnest action with respect te the vflairs of Central America. The new federation of Central America is aa émportant event. The intrigues which have been going on in that quarter, forthe last two or three years, have been defeated, and new and briiliant results, and extended prosperity, promise to succeed to the enlightened policy that now animates the moet intelligent States. ‘Che new representatives are te meet in September, and if we may judge of the whole body by the sample furmshed by Nica- ragua,a highly interesting eeries of acts will be advocated to attract our attention and that of the world. This new federation has been opposed by the egente of the British crown, and means have ‘Tue Mustant Rertsuic or Hart.—Tae Do- Frencn Opinin or THR ANNEXATION oF CunA.— An interesting article from La Presse appears in our columns. Tse writer comprehends very clearly | kneckere; end though accustomed to the knock- minican Revthiicans.—The wonderful iatelli- gence has been announced, that Faustia the First, the black guitdian of the dark destiny of Hayti, has con portation of ceritin aiticles, to the amount of tea per centom, and that the United States will be put ‘on th Bame commercial footing as other natioas. | ‘Thre news needs confirmation, and if it were true, es the dictator of Hayti is quite as likely to change 1 bie mind with the firet breeze, on this point, esto | maintuin a fixed liberal policy, we pat no faith in the announcement. Ever since Faustin the First | sprung into the seat of power, his nets have been a reries of drepotic encroachments upon the people | who are forced to submit to his loathsome govera- | ment. The republic of Hayti has been graduafly, and yet rapidly, running back into ‘the barbaric state, ® course to which the ignorance of the gov- ervutent unerringly directs it. Every step taken has been a step backwards. The eeat of the first | Puropean settlement of the new world, it is the wet in intelligence, in wisdom, in practical liberty | end virtue. All that was gained under the Freach | government has been ost, and the population has | been reduced to astate of alarming disorganizi- tion, that threatens eventual ruin. The exports have been diminishing'with extraordinary rapidity, | and the soil and the industry of the country are | slike lost by the pitiful policy of the government. ‘The outrages committed upon the population, and upon foreigners visiting the island for the purpose of trade, have crowned the wretched system which hus prostrated the energies of the inhabitants. Happily for the Dominicans, at the death of Boyer the Spanish population created the republic of Dominica. In this portion of the island is the only hope of the intelligent population, though it is | now threatened by the barbarian troops of the | black emperor. Holding two-thirds of the territory, and the best fortified towns, they are liable any Moment to ‘the slaughterous designs of the brutal Faustin. San Domingo has been the scene of one | Massacre, and may yet be subjected to another. Sach is the wretched position of affuirs. been taken to interpose serious obstacles, by the excitations of revolutions, and such other schemes» as might delay or destroy the project. Inthe failure of these, our countrymen rejoice. The letter of Mr. Chatfield’s secretary and agent, fully confirms our often repeated surmises as to the character of the British patronizing policy in that quarter; and we are delighted to find the whole animus of the boasted liberal views of Great Britain so completely unmasked, as in the letter which we publish. Mr. Bulwer’s letter to Mr. Chatfield, which we were the first to publich, was a very rieh affair—but this one “goes ahead” of that in almost every particular of interest. It will be read with very delicious saticfaction—because it is not often that these diplomats have their correspondence so widely ex- posed. If they will aid in revolutions, however, they must run the chance of losing their corres- pondence. The news, generally, is of a character to excite attention. The States of Central America are too litde known, even to our own countrymen, who are daily becoming more immediately connected in unity of interests, politically and commercially, with them, and with their prespenty. It appears almost self-evident, that our population will soon prefer the route to California by Nicaragua, to that by Panama. Companies of men travelling to against the Treasury of the United States. One report aye that the House next passed a pesolu- tion that the act of Congrees made it the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury to pay the principal ofthe claim. This report may be right, but it is mot very clear to us. Afterwards, ae we learn, they pronounced, by a vote of 117 to 81, that,the Seeretary of the Treasury was not authorized to pey the interest on the claim, and that it was con- ‘tary (o law and precedent to de so. Mr. Feathersten, Mr . bers, gave notice of other amendments deauncia- tory of Mr. Crawford and the cabinet, the last gamed gentleman announcing hie intention of effering one requesting Mr. Crawford to refund ‘the money, with interest. There appears to be @eme funny work yet %o come in this matter, and the probability is, that before ihe House is done with the Galphin cabinet, there will not be much left of them. It will be seen by the telegraphic report, that Mr. Daniel, of North Carolina, offered a resolution proposing an amendment to the constitution in re- lation to slavery, but objection was made, and it was withdrawn. Nothing of conseyuence was done in the Senate. ‘The California bill was partially diseussed, but no conclusion wae arrived at. It seems that there was a hearing yesterday, on the cuse of Professor Webster, the particulars of whieh, in another column, will be read with ia- wrest. A final decision om the case will be given on the 18th inst. ‘There ie a report that cholera bas broken out in Waehington. Ficotensi Impertant from Ouba, Oar advices from Havana by the steamship Georgia, which arrived at this port yesterday, are very interesting, if notimportant. It appears that Commodore McKeever, of the United States frigate Congress, bad an interview with the Cap- tain General, which wan of akind and agreeable ehorncter, end that the latter gave the former the aeeerance that the Contoy prisoners weuld soon be bthersted. On the ovher hand, it is eaid that the Sponieh Admiral extreme Mesenres towards the prisoners, without enring, *e suppose, whether they are guilty of tak- ing © pert in the invasion or not, and probably the hepe thet their execution would lead to a war, im which Don Armero flattera himself he would exprure the whole American navy, and carry out oo land the threats which Saota Anna uttered . Us, previous te the breaking oat of the Mexiewn war, Butas we are treating with the Conat of Aleoy, and not with Admiral Armero, it Carter, and other mem- or do. We further leorm by this arrival, that Commo dere McKeever sent despatches by the Georgia to the gove rotment at Washington, which will pat an entirely distinct face on the matter, and which wil| prove conclurively that there ia ao danger of a “songuinary war” with Spain bar been a great dee! of misund>retan ting coonect ed with thie mutter, in the intercourse which bur them place between the Count of Alcoy and the Ametionn Consul a rereerciol agent, sddreveed his letters in the tone «fa diplomatic.

The whole state of comparison between the two may be comprised in & few words. In passing from one ocean to the ether, by the way of Panama, an economical per- son will have to pay,in the way of detention and other incidental expenses, about seventy-five dol- lars. By the Nicaraguan route, fifteen dollars will tuffiee to transport him across the country. Tolerable accommodations may be obtained for about nine dollars, and one may go across ina cart for seven dollars. When the steamers of the Nicarsguan company are running, the parsange will be made, through Nicaragua, in twenty-three houre,-or im ten hours lesa than by Panama. Even were the advantages ofj speed greater over Pa- nama, the salubrity of the climate, by the Nica- Teguan route, must be deemed an advantage that Panema cannot possess. The Nicaragua route is, also, by many a mile, nearer to ail the ports of the United States and of California, and this is an im- pertont advantege ertening the passage. So much interest will be taken in this new route, that we will look at it more closely. The first point on the Atlantic, ie the port of San Juan del Norte. This igqa neat town, having large houses, capable of containing from thirty to fifty persona, and we are informed that large companies can ob- tain these shelters for about a dime a day, each person. From San Juan to Granada, the river is ascended for about ninety miles to the lake, through which, to Granada, ninety miles more have to be passed. On the luke, at numereus pointa, provi- tions are wbundant and very cheap, while fine huot- ing and game give charms to the traveller. At Granoda, a city of twelve theusand inhabitants, all the comforts of life are to be found. From this latter place to Realejo, on the Pacific, which may be reached by a good cart road, theie are a number of towns and cities. The scenery in this region is full of tropical grandeur and loveliness, such as Humboldt has recently described with such vivid earnestness of coloring in hia **Cosmos.” Beauti- ful valleys, magnificent mountains, extensive lakee, clear ekies, luxuriant vegetation, delicious air, and & healthful climate invite the traveller, and desig- nate it as the country which will soon furaish the pepular path to California. The railroad neroas Panema will thrive in the course of two or thr yeore, and will carry over much freight; but t | pusrenger traffic will be chiefly carried on by the new steamers of the Nicaraguan route. We have many more facts at our command re- epecting this beaatiful country, and with respect to its growing political importance. These must be reserved for another occasion. Cnr simple object | has been to show the value of adjusting the most | liberal relations with the governments in this region, and of doing what we cen to lead the people there toa more enlarged security, happiness aud pros- perity. Mr. Squier, uaquestionably, will furnish the government with sone valuable reports upon the whole subject, and we shall await with anxiety for every additional statement upon which we can rely. | Te Great Saut Laxe.—Captain Stansbury, | of the Topographical Engineer Corpa, has made a Very interesting survey of the shore of the Great Salt Lake. His report does not favor the belief that the leke is suited to navigation. The water ; seems to be only a few inches deep, and a rise of one foot, it is estimated, would double its area. On the first desert Captain Stansbury fouad a evemnent of salt, ten miles in length, seven miles in width, from a half an inch to three-quarters of an inch thiek, and strong enough to eapport his mules from sinking in the mud, which he has de- scribed as very treacherous and dangerous, The | @rentent depth of the Utah Lake ie sixteen fret, and the depth of the Great Salt Loke, for miles from | the shore, ts only afew inches. Thus the hope | Of ony useful navigation seeme to be entirely cut ef, perticulerly as die Utah or Jordan river is an insignificant stream, The difficulty of obtaiaing water, taken together with other circumstances, therefore, seems to have shown, conclusively, that } this long talked of regioa will hold out few induce. ments for the enterprise of man. We mast loot to athe highly favored, and less inacvessible routes towards the shores of the Pacific, to cunncet the civilization of our territories with the new fielde of adventure aud commerce growiag in our exticme Western porseasions. re Cour axo Go About three bundred prsson- The two portions of Hayti, held by the two re- publics, are curiously enough governed by systems totally opposite to each other. When the Domini- cams broke from the traces of barbarian rule, they were without means, and almost without hope.— With great practical sagacity, however, they es tablished a liberal system of oommerce—a feasible, honest and effective currency—and are reaping the reward of their enterprise and liberality. Yet, in the moment of their proeperity, they are threatened with en invaeion, which must be‘dieastroue, even if it only distract the population from their regular pursuits. The preparations of Faustin will do more then this probebly. They will be direeted to the | subjugation of the Spanish population, many of | whomanay innocently fall victims to the blood- | thirety repacity of the black-faced and black-heart- freedom of ignorance, and in the wanton depravity of his barbarous nature. The question is, under the aspect of circum- stances, whether some kind of protection will not be afforded by the civilized world to the Domini- | cans. They have generously offered fifty acres of the position, ef Cuba, but the anticipated ultimate to take place, unless seme extraordinary event preci,iates them. ‘The simple truth is, that eur country does not desire the annexatiun of Cuba, @.cept natura) events bring about such a consum- mation.

New Mexico, also, adds to our anxieties; and it would be folly to increase the series of political anxieties which now distress us, by going beyond our own territory in search of causes. The slavery agitation of the Northern States, for twenty-five years pact, has been preparing « path of therns for we—stimulating at the South a kind of defensive ection, which springs naturally from the senseless Men have departed from the exercise of reasoa, end huve broken down the proprietiee of life—even gving co far, lke Horace Mann, as to entertain ‘colored persons at the family table, and im the ‘drawing room—with no other result than to excite hostilities, and to embitter those sectional preju- dices, which ought net to exist in a confederacy like our own. When men sacrifice to questionable and theoretical freedom the great interests ef an enlightened country, and merge their patriotism into a single barren emotion of abstract theory, then we cannot fail to doubt the results of their peculiar taste and ambition. Too mueh -of this spirit of aggression prevails; and it was an unfortunate hour, when the political parties of the country censented, in decided opposition to the letter and spirit of the constitution, to draw from the discussion the means of amass- ing political capital. This movement on the part ef political tacticians is now doing its work. In direct opposition t» every form of the will of the people at large, for nearly a year, we have had the publie time sacrificed in the halls of Congress. In ovr. polities] calendar this Black Year will long be referred to, as the most disgraceful in the annals of the confederacy. Its cabinet history—its execu- tive history—ite congressional history, ean never be wiped away. The escutcheon of the country has been blurred beyond any and every precedent, and we have only now the prospect of a hepe for an agreeabie future, in a complete reconstruction of the elements of the government, in a general turning out of the degraded partieans of folly and fenaticitm, and in the introduction of a new order of men, devoted, first and foremost, to the Union, in all its integrity and prosperity, and to party lines the one patriotic idea. We shall look for the White Year of the republic, and so arrange our political atmosphere as to produce it. must lie beyond our thoughts. The cabinet may hurry on a war with Spain, to force the annexation land to every emigrant, in full right and property, free of any charge, together with exemption from | military duty. This fact is an evidence of their | superiority of the islanders of the eastern end, who pluce patents on licenses for every kind ef business, | and shut out the enterprise of the world from their _ gates, ignorantly jealous of everything fereign, and incensed against the prosperity of their neighbors. | We are asked to aid this feeling. The agents of the | black emperor invite us to relinquish the settlement ef our claims for the preseat, virtually to permit the funds, which are rightfully ours, to be used for the purpose of slaughter and rapacity. Shall we do this? Shall we consent to furnish any avsist- ance, even the most remote, to Fanstin, and with the certainty that such aid will be for the destrue- tien fof a people, whose policy is enlightened, whose ports have been open to our commerce, and in whose prosperity we have a deep sympathy and a positive interest? A few weeks will settle thie matter. May the end be one that the world will Tejoice to contemplate. Fravps on Emigrants. —Tue Conpuct or te | Coamssionens or Esugration.—We referred the other day, in general terms, to the numerous frauds and impositions practised upon persons arriving at this port from foreign places, and intimated that the | Commissioners of Emigration were justly charge: ble to @ very great extent with them, because | they do not take measures to protect those strang- | ere, and tolerate if not wink at them. About a week since, an English family arrived at this port, and no sooner bad the vessel reached the Quaran-— tine, than she was boarded by a horde of runners and bullies, who seized al! baggage within sight, by foree, and thus compelled the owners to follow ‘hem wherever they pleased, On being remoasrrat- | ed with for their conduct, a person representing himeelf to be Sheriff of New-York, was appealed 19, Who said the outrageous proceedingwas right, ind the runners handed cards to their victims, oa which the names of two of the Commissioners of Emigration were printed, as references. One of the Commis- sioners thus referred to, has been applied to on the subject, and said that the use of his mame in that manner was not without hisauthority. The resuly was, in the case of the family, that the ruAnere who violently seized their baggage brought them to some forwarding house, where they were charged something like five dollars a head more than they ought to have paid. The runners, as they are call ed, receive very large salaries for their services tome of them as high as thirty and forty dollars per | week each, for services of this kind. The Commia . sioners of Emigration were made cognizant of this | case,but they were powerless, they said, togive any | relief. Thie isa specimen of the frands that are prac. | tived upon persons arriving at this port from foreiga | countries. The aggregate amount of wrong intl | ed on these etrangers mast be immense in a siagle seston. Our State Legicloture have, from time to | | time, passed laws for their protection; bat, accord. ing to what we see and hear around us, they are | noperative. The Commissioners of Emigration owe their offices to a recently passed enactment, / but we have yet to hear of their conferring any vantage on the stranger, or protecting him from the numerous runners who infest our docks, and board ships arriving at this city. Ia the case we j have related, we see the names of two of those Commirtioners ured as references, with the aanc- | tion of one, and yet those people were cheated out of five dollare each, and compelled, wgainst their | will, to go the forwarders dictated. Now, is there no way in which this system of robbery and plunder and abuse, can be putanendtet If the Commissioners of Emigration cannot, or do not, or will not, proteet the stranger, we hope the Legislature will abolish the office, and leave it to the protective emigrant societies, or the consuls of the nations which the emigrants leave, as wi formerly the case. This matter ought to be taken | in hand by the press and the public, and some | remedy devised that will save strangers seeking our shores from at least some of the impositions prac | tieed apon them. In the mean time, sitineera | arriving here should at once proceed to the Bo Protective Emigrant Society, the German | grent Seeiety, and other nieniter institutions, where they cen get information and advice, free of expente.

It will knock the | “sanguinary war” with Spain intoa cocked hat— throw into thepshade Lopez's invasion and rapid retreat from Cuba, and go ahead, in an infinite degree, of the famous tobacco case, and the funny correspondence between Secretary Clayton and Mr. Poussin. It appears that one of the letter writers in Wash- ington, generally understood to be the puffer-gene- ral of the cabinet, alleged against Mr. Giddings, that that gentleman had abstracted certain papers relating to acertnin post-office in Ohio, from the archives of the Post Office Department in Ohio.— Mr. Giddings was indignant at the charge, and denied it, in his seat in the House, in unqualified terms, insisting, at the same time, upon having a committee appointed to investigate the matter.— This was at first refused, but was at length granted, and we suppose the committee will sooa enter vpon their duties, if they have not done so alreedy. The best of the joke, however, is, that the charge has since been reiterated. The person who made the charge, says that he has evidence in abundance to substantiate it,and that he is ready and willing to prove his assertion, at the proper time, to the satisfac- tion of the committee, if not to that of Mr. Giddings himeelf.
