Jt is with no ordinary emotions that we inform our readers that the Compromise bill, introduced by Mr. Clay, has been defeated in the Senate, at Washin, Accerding to our telegraphic de- on. spatch irelating to New Mexico and Califor | nia was stricken out, and a bill fixing the bounda- ry of the territory of Utah at thirty-seven, passed. Thas the bill has been defeated—eight months of labor gone for nothing, and the great question of the day remains where it was at the beginning of the session. We now advise Congress to adjoura, | #0 that the members can have an opportunity of | consulting with the people. We have not time to | make any comments upon this disastrous result to | a bill which, we are certain, would have disposed | of the agitation if it had passed, but will do so on another occasion. One Week Later from Europe. The steamship Canada touched at Halifax, at seven o'clock, yesterday morning, from whence a | summary of her news, which is one week later | than we were previously in possession of, was | transmitted to this city by telegraph, via Nova Seona and New Brunswick, and from Portland by | Bain’s line of telegraph. By this arrival, we learn that our great Southern staple has experienced another advance of from an eighth toa quarter of a penny sterling per pound, and that very large sales were made at this figure during the week pending the sailing of the Canada, amounting, in the aggregate, to one hundred and eleven thousand bales. This intelligence will be received with pleasure by the planters inthe South- ern States, and by the holders of that article gene- Tally throughout the country. It ought to be wel- comed by the whole nation, for the advance will assist us materially in discharging the balance against our trade with England and the rest of Europe, in consequence of our having imported, during the last year, more than we exported, to the valine of several millions of dollars. It appears that the political economists of England have at length arrived at the conclusion that they are de- pendent upon us for a supply of cotton, and that if, through any casualty, the crops in the United States failed, it would be as great, if nota greater e@alamity to England, than it would be to the United States. We have repeatedly told them as much, and have argued therefrom that Eaglind ‘was under bonds to keep the peace with this coun- try; that her own salvation existed on our cot- fon crop. They are, therefore, casting abou to see where they can grow that material, so as to be independent of us, to a certain extent, no for the purpose of entering into hostilities with us, if occasion ofiered, for England knows better than to attem) it, but to provide for the emergency that ‘would occur, in case our cotton crop, like the po- ‘tatoe in Ireland, were suddenly blighted. They have already tried, and failed, in India; we leara that they are about to test the soil of the West India islende. We shall see what the result will be. It is, perhaps, as well that those experiments ‘ere being ma for the time is not very distant awhen the whole cotton crop of the United States witli not be more than suflicient to keep our own manufectories employed.

When the people of that country become @ little more intelligent than they are,—when they relieve themselves of the mental slavery which they have suffered under for centuries, they may, with some chance of success, strike a blow for political liberty.

In our telegraphic synopsis of the news it is said that she made it in ten days and a half, allow- ing the diflerence of time between New York and Liverpool. This is true, or nearly so; but as we do not on this side of the water either add or sub- tract for the difference of time between Liverpool and New York, we count the apparent length of the run, £0 as to make the matter as simple as possible. This run has never been exceeded but once, end never equalled but once. It was ex- ceeded by the Atlantic, twin sister of the Paeific, and belonging to the Collins line, and equalled by the Asia, of the Canard line, which latter vessel left Boston on the twelfth of June, at noon, and arrived at Liverpool at five o’clock, A. M., on the twenty- third of the same month. Adding twenty-one hours, for the difference between New York and Boston, and she made the passage in ten days and seventeen hours, which, up to that time, was the shortest passage onrecord. The Atlantic followed on the fifteenth of June, and made the run in ten days and sixteen hours, beating the Asia one hour; and now we learn that the Pacific has made it in ten days and seventeen hours and a half. The following is a table of the shortest passages that ever were made from New York to Liverpool:— Le Arrived Passage. New Yerk. At Lnersect. Days.Hours. 0 1848, 1 PLM. tt ut Steamers. A .

This is as much as could be expected within such a short time, for, as our readers are aware, the Atlantic and Pacific have been running only three months. As might be expected, the extraordinary speed of these vessels, together with their unequalled ac- commodatioas for passengers, make them great favorites with the travelling public. Patronage is being extended to them on a bountiful seale, and the probability is, that these vessels will hereafter have as much freightas they can carry, and as many passengers as they can possibly aceommodate. Tue Tenvanrerec Treaty wit Mextco.— We publish, in another part of this day’s paper, the convention entered into by the United States and Mexico, securing to American citizens the privi- lege of constructing a canal or railroad across the Isthmus ef Tehuantepec, to connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. We have frequently com- mented on the importance of securing the right of ‘way across thut isthmus, and are pleased to see that it has been secured at last. We have now got eontrol over the three most favorable points for formin, janction of those two oceans, viz., Pa- nama, Nicaragua, and Tehanatepec, and we hope that, befere long, some one of them will be ia perfect operation. Indeed, we are certain that the Nica- regua route will be open in a couple of months. By this recent convention with Mexico, both nations guerantee to maintain the neutrality of the proposed canal or railroad, as the case may be, and also ten leagues in width on each side, in time of war as well as in peace; but in time of war, if any should ever eccur between the two countries, no arms or munitions can be transported on it, All inthe North, but in the South. Hardly a week passes Sint we do not hear of new factories being erected in the Southern States, so that, before very Jong, the probability is, there will be as many in thet section of the country as there are in New England. Kdbehoves England, therefore, depen- dent co much as she is on cotton from this eouatry, 42 look out for asityply by the time we will be ina condition to manufacture all that we cultivate Within ovr own territory. We have not as yet reeeived any further intelli- gence concerning our claim on Portugal, but we shall probably gather something from our ex- @hoages ond correspondence, when the mails of the Canada come to hand. The most important feature of the political in- telligence received by this arrival, is the accowche- livered of a con, which, however, survived its birth but a few minutes. The difficulties, therefore, that eurrounded the suecession to the throne of | Bpain, and which were suspended on the annouace- ment that the Queen was enciente, will, in all pro- bability, break out afresh, and the good people of M6 the sugoeesion. The probability is, that whether Queen Christina wave any ferther issue or not, they will be ceztaia of heing ryled by either a King or Queen, cae The Queen of Portugal's sister hae, it appears, @ontracted a motrimonial allicnce with the son of | Don Corlor, at which the Spanish Minister was so indignant that he demended his passports, on the ground thet such marriage isan infringement on | the quadruple alliance. We do not see how this | difficulty can be got over; but we apprehend the | world will revolve on its axis for the remainder of the year, just as uniformly as jt would if such mar. riage hed not taken place. It may create a brush j Detween Portugal and the other contracting parties, but it cannot amonnt te a very great deal According to the accounts which have come to hand, there is no prospect of the difficulties be- tween Denmark and the Duchies being satisfac. torily settled. At the last date, the expectation ‘was, that if hostilities were not actually recom menerd, they would be in » very short time. The Moet teresting point of the present attitude of the conflicting parties is, that Russia has determined upon assisting the Danes, and has stationed a fleet off the coast for the purpose of following up her threate. It would appear that the Czar is, at the present time, supreme in Europe, and crn to what he pleases in that part of the world. It looks ns if the checks and counterbalances which kept the Ratione of the Continent in their proper places have been removed, and that Nicholas is not only auto- erat of all the Russias, but of Europe likewise. | What hes become of England, that she does not | stir?

It will be etrange in- deed if the work of connecting the two oceans for commercial purposes be delayed much longer. Tux Avortionists axD Mu.

The Atlas, at Albany, acts in this way, but we apprehend that all the ef- forts of that sheet, backed as it may be by the whole abolition force of the State of New York, cannot shake popular cémcdence in Mr. Clay, or detract from his merit as 9 pettiot who dered tg stand up and defend the constitution from the at- tacks of its enemies, and the Unioa from th saulis of those who would destroy it. While Mr. Clay oceupies the proudest position that could be allotted to him, he need not care about the puny attacks which the abolitionists may make on him If bie opponents were possessed of a tithe of his petriotiem, they would second his efforts to pour oil on the troubled waters and efiect a reconcilia- tion between the North and the South, rather than oppoee them.

Comarrres.—The Tammany Hall convention adjourned last night till the third week in September, on account of the hot weather! It was entirely too warm to discuss the report on or ganization. Before adjourning, they issued an order for the election of delegates to the Syracuse convention, and also for the election of a general committee for the remainder of the present year, who will take charge of the fall elections. We pererive they have passed a resolution requeeting the sachems not to permit the Western committee to meet any longer at the old wigwam. It appears that the Western committee are somewhat obati- nate, and, in defiance of the convention, have called a meeting, for this evening, at Tammany Hall. It is evident, however, that the convention have got the whip hand of them.

The Cuaimman decided that a motion to adjourn, or indefinitely to postpone a question, was always in order, Mr. Kenrepr then urged the Conventiou to take up the repert and go through with it. They could have disposed of the whole matter while they were talking about the time alleged to be necessary to discuss it. Mr. Sexy moved the previous question. Mr. Cocnnane rose to a point of order. He said the motion for postponement was, in effect, the same as layisg it indedinitely on the table, Captain Rwwnmne said his object was, not to inde- finitely postpone, but to gec cooler weather to discuss the merits of the report. Mr. Cocunane said they would be left withont any organization, if they adopted this resolution. They had resolved on organization, and on the last night of they had negatived the establishment of The previous syyten was then put and sustained; 23 voting for, and 15 against. ‘The main question was then put on the postpone- ment till the third week of September, Dr Incnanam, in explanation of his own*vote’ingthe affirmative, said he was in favor of discussing the re- port now, but there was not time for the democracy outside to make up their mind previous to the Syra- cuse convention.
