Atan early our last evening the rain ceased to fall, but the wind continued wit h unabated violence until nine o’clock this morning, since which time the wiad has somewhat abated in violence, and we have had showers at intervals.

The river at this point is at least eighteen inches higher than it was at the spring freshet last April, and was this morning still rising slowly At St. Authony, yesterday aiternoon, it had fallen about an jneb. From thia'we presume the still increasing waters here come from the Minnesota, The rise at St. | Aptbony was so great that the boom above the mill dam was broken. and the immense body of logs carried | down ageinet the dam, The water pours over the | structure in u buge torrent; and about fifteen huadred logs were swept off before they could be checked. Bome sawed-lumber was also carrid away. The steamer Governor Ramm y was unable to reach Sauk Rapids, on her last trip up, owing to her wood, piled at different places slong shore, being carried off. Rice creek. Coon creek, and Kum river are higher than ever before known, Mr Freeman’s house, stables, garden, &c.. at the mouth of the first named stream, are flooded. The Minnesota is not yet as high as at the April rise. Mr. Martin McLeod, from Lac-qui-Parle, reports a heavy vise about the sources, all the low lauds being under water, Information b4* Sion received from Mr. Kitt- bon, The trader at Pembina, that the whole country slong the Red river is completely submerged, and he, with the rest of the inbabitants, forced to take to the hills. ‘Tho annual caravan of traders from Red river, which usually reaches St. Paul about this time, need not be expected for several weeks, The destruction on 8t.

All the booms below the fulls—at Marine, Osceola, Arcola, Sc., are broken, and general havoc committed among the logs. At Stillwater. the flood is over the principal street, running parallel with the lake, and of course all the low joors of the buildings along it are submerged. Along all the streams mentioned, the crops planted on the bottoms are probably entirely destroyed. This will prove the severest loss of all, as our setlors are not yet in circumstances to bear such # calamity without great inconvenience and suffering.

Intenestine rnom Fort Laramir.—A correspondent of the St. Louis (Mo) Republican of the 16th inst., writing from Fort Lamarie, under date of the 2d ult, says:—* Tho tide of emigration is still sweeping acroes the prairies in great force, carrying along in its current all our floating population, such as mechanics, la- borers, hunters, Indian traders, &c. Up to the pro- sent time, the entire number of men, women, chil- dren, wagons, horses, mules, &c., that have passed this point. is as follo 9.972 men, 95 women, 76 children, 2,797 wagons, 9,820 horses, 3.126 mules, and 2.340 oxen. The emigration is at least three ke ahead of that last yoar. Mavy supplied themselves with grain at the frontiers, and were enabled to push wre in the vi- cinity of this place, which gave them four weeks the advantage over those who waited for grass on the Mis- souri; and, besides this, the roads this spring have been much better than they were last, owing to the dryness of the season, which has been another great advantage that this emigration has had over the last. Another party of footmen passed iyestenday,. pier] everything, provisions, bi &e., stray on their backs, One provident fellow, in addition to all this, had a small sheet iron cooking stove slung to his back, with which he appeared to be much delighted. The health of the ty thus far has been. good; but few, ifany, have died on the road. Some half dozen have been left here sick, but all are now convalescent.

The Texas Boundary Dispute— Governor Seward’s Highee Law—Mr. Peatt brings it to an Tssue—Funny Scene Mr. Pratt comes aff second best, under a grand Rally of the Freesoilers, We have hadachange of the programme to-day Tho true question was the Texas boundary; but, by the zealous devotion of Mr. Prutt to the constitution, it was changed to a discussion ov.that “higher law’ of Y | Governor Sewnrd The subject of the Texas boundary had been under ditcussion tor several hours—various amendments had been rejected, when Mr, Seward got up, and put one in of such an extraordinary character, as to have the effect at once to divert Mr. Pratt from the amendment, to an attack upon Seward himself, ADMISSION OF NEW AtExICO. Mr, Sewar2 “UBmitted an amendment providing for the admiesion of New Mexico asa sovereign State of the Union, on the proclamatisn of the President of the United States. Mr. Beward made a considerable speech in support of his motion, the most prominent point of which was that in admitting New Mexico, you provide at once for the rettlement of the boundary, by bringing the subject before the Supreme Court ax 4 question between the two States, MK. PRATT GRTS EXCITED. Mr. Pratt took hold of Mr. Seaward witheut gloves, and handied him with exceeding roughness. He charged that the Governor's amendment involved a violation of the constitution. and said that, of course, an amendment of this sort could only come from that Senator who had pleaded that there was@ higher law than the constitution He charged that Gov. Seward could not have been admittcd to take his oath with this conviction, but for the coneralinent of his opi- nions, and that since he has divulged them, be ought to be turned out of the body. Mr. Seward defunded bis amendment by reading from the constitution of New Mexico, to show it was strictly republican; but aid that, according to the Senator from Maryland, there was one heresy in it, that is, the admission of a higher power than the o stitution, in the Supreme Kuler of the Universe. Mr. Pratt desired to explain. Mr. Seward gave way. Mr. Pratt, (unnecessarily excited) declared that the ailegationof the Senator was not true. (Cries of order, order ) Mr. Pratt the former lified bis remarks, and maintained that jon of the Senater from New York was susceptible of a construction that would convict him of repudiating bis allegiance to the eoustitation. Mr. Seward ¢ declined any ani r Mr. Pratt, then, did not think it necessary to say any more. Mir Dayton appenied to the Senator from New York, to withdraw bis amendment, ar entirely out of place, and inconeistent with the position of the opponents of bill. ‘Mr. Seward stuck to his amendment. Mr. Hale mad -y eloquent confession of his be- lef of a powel the constitution, the Suprem Ruler of the Universe \d ifthat doctrine were suffi- cient for the expulsion of a S: or, he pleaded I o conviet himself He Mr. Pratt was thrown upon He had been @ little to: but he still contended that the objectionable declaration of Mr. Seward placed bim in 4 position which qualified his obligations te the oon- stitution Mr. Baldwin read from the speeck of Mr. Seward, (delivered scme months ago.) objectionable sen- tences which wed consistent with am oath to support the contstitution, while it declared there was @ power above it. After some further discussion of the subject by Messrs. Chase, Seward, Pratt, Foote, Baldwin, Mr. Jefferron Davis rose He raid he had been ab- senta short time, and expected on returning to his reat to find the Senat ly to vote upon the amend- I. prise I find them e ‘And as the question be- fore us is one pro iy ding 4 season of prepara- tion, and as we ought to have a night's conrideration upon it, and as we have had & prayer from Brother Beldwin, (great laughter) I move that the Senate ad- ‘The motion was lost.

We presume that, atter to day, there will be no farther question of a power above the constitution, and in obedience to which, the constitution itself is but an instrument in carrying out the obligations of that bigher law. De jae as Gov. Seward may be, odious as he certainly and did not ask for proo! pleaded guilty, and desired is, from his extreme abolitioniem and socialist ponte is Leng 4 % be ae echivairic ote constantly peo im w \ve personali Shon tt ie Lacwn that he seputiotes the paatipte at self-defence. And upon this secount, we are rather Preys we the assistance which he received from Chase, Hale. and Baldwin, to-day. And we just say, that Mr. Foote had @ retort and & look from Mr. Chase, in the controversy, which constituted the most ment of the day's debate. We have seen —— like the inrtantaneous effect which it produced. Aj wher we say dispcsition to “ crowd upon the mourners,”’ abandoned sinners as they may be, it is quite patural to concur, if they square off for reristance and clear the ring. As for the bill, it still swings upon a single hair, though it will probably be squecsed through the Wasuinaron, July 24, 1850.

Ewhank, Butterfield and Warren — Mr. Pearce— Compromise Bill — Weather— Scandal, #e.
