The deepest excitement prevails here, What next ? is the general question, but nobody cau answer. The Dill was attacked, the first thing to-day by Mr.{Pearce, and the amendment which secured the vote of Texas was indignantly struck out. From that moment the destruction of the bill went on, till nothing was left of it. California, New Mexico, and the Texas boundary, are just where they were last December Mr. Clay will leave the city for Capo May, having done his share to settle the question, and being in that condition which requires repose and son bathing Mr. Bates arrived here last night, He had an inter- view with President Fillmore last evening,jand again to-day.

If he accepts, he will probably take the Inte- rior. His affable manners and good face win all hearts bere. It is thought he will not accept. Explosion of the Steamboat America.
