AMERICAN MUSEUM—A~ moor ann Breve New York, Saturday, Angust 3, 1890, | | Telegraphic Summary. A calm seems to have succeeded the storm | which prevailed in Washington duriag the discns- sion of the Compromise bill. Beth houses of Con- gress seem to be in better humor with themselves and the whole world, than they have been since the commencement of the session. We hope that the calm will continue, and that a settlement of ; the clavery question will grow out of it | In the Senate, the California bill was taken up | at twelve o'clock, but very little was done, farther | than rejecting Mr. Foote’s amendment, restricting | the boundaries of that new State to 35 30. "The Hovse leid aside the California bill, and de- | pated the Indian appropriations, without, however, | eoming to any conclusion, We are informed by our private correspondent, that another Compromise bill will be proposed in a | few deys, for the settlement of the slavery ques- fion, which may pass by a system of log rolling sirnilar to that which prevails at Albany during the sions of the New York Legislature. It is said that the Southern members are willing to concede something to the North on the tariffquestion, if the | Nortk will concede an equivalent to the South in relation to slavery. We are disposed to put some yeliance on this rumor. We have seen indications for some time past, in the whig journals in the North, of an attempt being made, during this session of Congress, to alter the tariff, by making it more protective than it The protectionist papers have frequently of late thrown out intimations that an effort to that effeet would be made, and we would not be at all surprised if the slavery question was settled and the tariff modified at about the same time, and that before long. We perceive that Mr. Pearce, of Maryland, has given notice of introducing a bill, on Monday next, establishing a territorial government for New Mexico, and settling the Texan boundary. } | | | Arrival of the Canada’s Matls—Aspect of the European News. ‘The errival of the mail by the Canada, yester- dey, has supplied us with our letters and papers of one week's later date from Europe.

Nor are we alone in our | opinion of Mr. Seward, for every person who is not | the present circumstances, regarded virtually abolished by this law. The affairs of Schleswig: Holstein have assumed a very threatening aspect, in consequence of the decided opposition in the Dachies to the treaty of peace which has been concluded on the part of Proseia, in the name of Germany. The determi- nation on the part of Schleswig Holstein, to carry on the war single-handed against Deamark, at the sent moment, when Russia is advancing her fleet ia the Baltic, and is prepering to invade the Dauachier, is as heroic as anything can be imagined of a people driven to the last extremity in the struggle to defend themselves agrinst the aggres- sions of a despotic government. The present po- sition of the Schieswig-Holstein question shows in the moet palpable manner, what matters in Europe have, at last, come to, with the domination of Russia on the one hand, and the despotiem of | silitary government on the other. When, several years ago, the intention of Denmark to bring about fa separation of the duchies of Schleswig-Holstein from rmany became manifest, by the acts of the government, by the latter towards the German popalation in | those States, an agitation in behalf of Schieewi, Holstein was got up in Germany, which ended in | adeclarstion of war on the part of the latter to Denmark in the year 1848. The question whether the States of Schleswig-Holeteia onght to remain | German duchies or become Danish provinces, had | previously been decided in favor of Germany, by | the most eminent jerists of Europe, on the ground of treaties by which the union of the duchies with Germany is guarantied. Afier | all the bleod that has been shed in the Danish war, © peace has now been concluded, which is most dishonorable to Germany, | and by which the yelitical union between | the duchies is to be for ever dissoly German: Which, without Schlieswig-TMelstein, could never | have become a maritime power, is to be here. | after little more than a geographical name for a | mamber of kings and dukedoms, all dependent on | Russia, while the influence of the latter is now to be extended to the North Sea. The result @ontest so unequal ae that of Schleswig-Holeteia egtinet Denmark and Russia, will not be difficult to foresee. ‘We ehail expect to hear, by the next advices from Euroy, of the actual commencement of how a filities in Denmerk Teaas axp New Mexico —We are compelled to leave ont, this morning, « letter from Gov.

We hope that the government will not lose sight | of this admirable opportunity for improving upon the hint suggested by Butler King’s report, with re- spect to the Colorado river, and the region adja- | cent—a territory newly acquired, and less known facilities in the possession of the expedition, the Colorado might be explored with comparative ease, and the government would save, by this timely po- licy, much expense which must follow at no day. The savage and war- like tribes in that region make it a matter of impossibility for private enterprise to meet the demands of an exploration. It can only be done by those who are armed with the authority of the | government, and a due regard to this point may save much bloodshed. and produce beneficial re- sults at the eartiest possible period, in the nature of the circumstances. There is ample time to effect the whole object, if the government will only be active in giving adequate instructions. An error will be committed if the work eb not fully accom- plished. ‘Tue New Yorx Heratp anv Senator Sewarp — ‘There are certain newspapers published throughout the country, that indulge constantly in abusing and villifying the New York Herald, when they areshort of ideas, or when their matter rans out. In order to eke out a leading editorial article, they extract a half a column or more from our columns, and fill up the remainder of the colamn with abuse of the Berald end its editor. Well, we are glad in being able to help out such lazy fellows; but if they imagine that their attacks ruffle our temper in the slightest degree, they deceive themselves most con- foundedly. On the contrary, it affords us consid- erable pleasure, that those worthies deceive and “sell” themselves go often in the attempt to morti- fy us. We have seen too much of the world, and have had too much experience, to allow our temper to be influenced by such paltry assaults as what we occasionally witness in envious cotemporarics, who, if they even bed the talent, lack the industry, en- terprise, and tact, to conduct successfully @ journal like the New York Herald.

It is very well known that Mr. Fillmore had nothing to do with that Compromise, in his capacity of President--that it was concocted, several months ago, by the Com- mittee of Thirteen, and cannot, by any means, be identified with his administration. In their re- joicings over the defeat of that conciliatory and equitable measure, the ebolitionsts should con- fine themselves to truth and facts as much as they can. But, if Mr. Fillmore’s administration has not been identified with the Compromise bill, it is to be hoped that he will soon take a decided stand in reference to the slavery agitation, by proposing some measure of settlement that would satisfy the coun- try. There never was a more favorable opportunity cffered to any President to distinguish him than is now offered to Mr. Fillmore. The track dmia- conducting the affairs of government.

Farvay, August 2-6P, M. The stock market opened unusually heavy thie morning, and but for the transactions in Erie Rail-~ road stock, it would have been a very dull day at the board. Prices were pretty well maintained consider- ing the scarcity of purchasers, and no amount of stock ‘was pressing upon the market, The prospect at pre- sent is, that August will be @ very quiet month for fancy stock speeulators, The slight variations in. prices to-day are hardly worth noticing. a ‘The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasuror of this port, to-day, smounted to $120,254 63; pay. ments, $125,655 97; balance, $4,971,989 73, ‘The receipts of the Erie Railroad Company for the month of July, 1650, amounted to $104,063 22, against $57,646 63 for the corresponding month in 1849, show- ing an increase of $46,606 59. Of the increase for tho month this year, $64 397 10 were from passengers and- mail, and $39,656 12 from freights.

To make up the estimated receipts this year ($1,000,000) the gross ineome for the remaining five months must amount to $739,665, equal to an average of $147,833 per month. The ave~ roge for the firet seven months was $122 005 per month. ‘The rame average for the of the year will. produce ag aggregate of $1,477,500. The loss by the late accident will be about ten thousand dollars, The ef- tect on the passenger businers of the road cannot bat be very serious, To give @ pretty good idea of the iron business car. ried on ip the northern part of New York, particular. ly in Eesex and Clinton counties, it is only necessary to state that the forges on the Saranac, Great Ausable, and other rivers, have « tots! of one hundred and six- ty-two fires in operation. The average product of sach fire, per week, is about five tons of tron, equal to 98,740 per year, There are sleo in Borex county five- blast furneces, capable of producing ten tons of pig iron per day, of which no account is made in this estimate; and ail experimental furnace at the Adirondse works, producing two tons per day, and’ converting it into steel. The whole number of fires, in the two counties, is 219, eapable of producing about £0,000 tons per annum. ‘The quantity of flour, wheat, corm and barley loft at tide.water duringf the fourth week in July, in the yeace 1849 and 1850, was as follows :— Comm Dortey, bush, bush. 8018 bs 138,640 sat Deercare. ..20,620 Ine.30.978 Deo.119,203 Tne... 760 ‘The aggregate quantity of the same articles left st tide-weter, from the eomimensemons of navigation te the Slet July, inelusive, during the years 1849.ancd. 1860, wes a9 follows:— tide-water, from the commencement of navigation te the Sist July, inelusive, during the years 18 and 1880, is a8 follows:— have no doubt the receipts will soon reach em amount equal to thore of lost year.
