Telegrapaic Int. liigence — Passage of the Slave TraMfe 41 by the House of Repre- tative. re 10st interesting item of intelligence which | we received by telegraph from Washington last evening, was the passage, in the House of Repre- rentatives, of Uke bill prohibiting the slave traffic m the Distriet of Columbia, by a vote of one hun- dred and twenty-four to forty-seven. This is the 1 ast and fimel measure connected with the edivery ogitation, and mow that it has been sanctioned by | vhe House of Representatives, and the dat which that agittion invoked have been esenped, | ell reasonable men will say that the country he | \ { { to have some repose.

Here then we see decided indica- vions of a general end concerted movement by the abolition whigs in both houses of Congress, to pre- eipitate the country into another slavery agitation. The great mass of the whig party in this State are beginning to eee the necessity which exists for forming a broad end pational platform, if they de- sire to swcceed in the election which will take place in this State in the month ef November next, or in maintaining pewer in Washington. They eommot but perceive that they will have a terrible | opposition to meetin the united ranks of the de- | mocracy, and that they must unite their forces, as | the democrate have done, and adopt a platform similar to theirs, or sufier an ignominous defeat when the fight comes on. The fact is, they can- | not but be aware, that unless they adopt tacties of | thie hind, and abolish everything in the shape of Sewardisen-end sectionalism in their ranks, the tion will go by defiult ; and that they must not only repudiate him and the clique of socialists at- tached to the party, but construct a platform that will be satisfactory to the whole party, South as well as-North, and rebuke, in a proper maaner, the attempts recently le by Wm. H. Seward, in the | Senate, et Washington, to revive the agitation of the slave! stion The wh nals in this region seem likewise | to be aware ef the difficulties that at the present | surround the party.

In @ pecuniary point of Yrew, we are as much independent of the govetament as the tone of our journal is independent of party. ‘So muuch for that point. Now, let us come back to the place from which we started. After quoting oor reimarks, that the present administration ought turn out all the Seward office-holders in this tc, our socialist cotemporary inquires whether, if our advice be taken, we will support the funda- sental primeiples and measures hitherto contended | for by the whigs, continue to oppose protection, and to favor the sub-treasury, and be indifferent or hostite to internal improvements. As for protec- | tien and the sub-treasury, they have beea fought, | and the battle was decided long ago. They are now obsolete, and al] attempts to recuscitate them will be in vein. We are moderately in favor of internal improvemerts, and have always been so, and have constantly supported and advecated the most gigantic scheme of the kind that was ever proposed in this couatry—we mean the construction ofa railroad from the confines of Missouri to the Pacific ocean, for the purpose of connecting the two extremes of our empire. But, strietly speaking, all this has nothing to do with the course which the whig party ought to | pursue in the approaching election in this State. We again repeat, that if they do not forma grand natione!l and comprehensive platform, they will be | defeated, and their forces scattered in every direc- tion. They must repudiate Wm. H. Seward, Thur- low Weed, and llorace Greeley, and the doctrines of abolitionism and socialism which they advocate.

Let them adhere to the Clay, Webster, and Fill- more platform, and they will stand a chance of succeeding at the coming election in this city, and ot preserving their ascendency in the general government for an indefinite time. Tue Mayoravry—A Ternince Contest in Pros- rrcr.—Our witty eotemporary of the Day Book, is probably right in expecting that the next greatest excitement, in this devoted city, would be in the election of Mayor. It looks frightful already. We have simply announced our intention to take the | stump, and our opponent, Philosopher Greeley, is running about in every direction, holding on to his waistband, to see if he cannot catch a few voters— Trish, German, socialist, loafers, or anything. The other night he ran into Tammany Hall in great alarm, to preside at a famous Irish meeting, and to see if he could not pick upa few Irish votes. It was rather a Slievegammon affair all through. We are far ahead of him among the Irish. We are a true Catholic, a believer in the Pope, have gone to confession a dozen of tim and have sympathized with the Irish, down to the chambermaid, who pays every day her twenty-five cents for an adver- Greeley is a philosopher—hostile to the Pope—a Fourierite, which is half an infidel, and wants to establish echools without prayer or a catechism. We have become reconeiled to Bishop Ilughes; he is now our holy bishop; we look upon him as ene of the greatest men of the age—as one of the lights of the church. Greeley prays to Fourrier, night and day, and circulates his secialist nonsense all the time, to the great scandal of all Catholics, of all Irishmen, and particularly to all those who have votes, and who intend to vote for Mayor. We ere all right on these poi Greeley, therefore, has only committed another Shevegammon Blonder in running, with his panta- loons in his hands almost, into Tammany Hall. He did nothing, but nearly kicked up a row, The idea ef his believing in Fourrier, and being opposed to the Pope—for he rejoiced over the defeat of his Holiness, and his flight from Rome—the idea that such a man, a follower of Robespeirre and Fourrier, should preside at an Irish meeting, was enough to create a row in Tammany Hall, that would take the roof off the building, and land it in the vale of Slievegammon. We are far ahead of Greeley among the Catholic Irish, the sound Irish, the | patriotic Irish, and not the Slievegammon Irish. What will be his next move ?

Before another opportunity will be offered to the ultras in that eater, some importent changes may take place in | “he progress of manufactures in both the North and the South. We are in the commencement of a ty transition-state in manufactures in this antry, and it will require some little time and experience to ascertain what the best policy will be in that particular branch of industry. According to present eppearances, the cotton manufactures, of the Eaet must go down, and be revived in the Southern States at no great length of time. Watch and pray.

On the contrary, the clumsy, old, fassy, muddle-headed merchants, booksellers, and deal- ers of various kinds, write out long advertisements, put them in papers with little or no circulation, and continue them without alteration, for weeks, and months, and sometimes for a year. After the first day they are old and trashy, and no one reads them; whereas, the advertisements in the Herald are always fresh and racy, and as interesting to read as the news of the day, or even as the move- ments of Jenny Lind. It is a picture of human life in action, which has all the intereet ef @ drama, got up by the inimitable Burton, or the ecstatic Niblo.

The third concert, last night, at Castle Garden, drew together the largest audience that has yet assembled to h the fascinating vocalist of Sweden. At an early hour, the holders of promenade tickets had filled every available space, and, by eight o'clock, all the seats, except those for which six dollars each had been demanded, were filled. There were one or two hun- | dred ef the bigh priced seats empty, and, at the con- | clusion of the overture, they were filled by those whe | were only entitled to the promenade. The audience were soon seated, after the execution | of the overture, which was magnificently performed, | and the immense assemblage formed a coup d’eil at once brilliant xciting. The entire area was filled | with from six to seven thousand persons, all intent on hearing the wonderful voice of the Nightingale The cavatina, by Belletti, from “Sonnambula,” was Well executed, and with the exception of some ragged and throaty notes, was an admirable piece of rocaliza- tion. Belletti far surpassed his first effort in a Tarentella,’ where his brilliant execution outshone all his previous efforts. The great feature of the con- cert, though, was Jenny Lind, who delighted all by her magical execution of certain dificult chromatic | passages. We do not desire to mention the harshness | of several notes, but as they camnot be forgotten, we name the fact, that we may dwell upon the | really fine portions of the performance, with more satisfaction, The aria from Mozart's“ Flauto Magico,” one of the most artistical operas ever written—was sung with more power than has yet been displayed by _ Jenny Lind She used the best parts of her organ with wonderful skill, and struck the highest note ever touched by the human voice with frmness and preci- sion. Criticiem may detect faults, as it must and ought; but any delicate musical organization must be ausceptible to 4 melodious trills as are revelled in by this fanciful vooalist. The final trill ballad was one of those grand have before noticed; as marking the prominent characteristic of the beautiful iu Madil: Li vocalization. The finale of “ Sonnambula’— Ab, non giunge’’—was another creat triumph. The d iihitum peseages were of the most brilliant order, 4 the time of the composer was generally preserved by the vocalist, On the whole, then, the continuous torrents of applause throughout the evening were very deservedly earned; and had the orchestra, Signor Belletti, and other performers, been applauded ac- cording to their merits, it would have spoken well for the judgment of the audience.

SUPREME COURT—BPKCIAL TEKM. September 17.—Before the Hon. Judge Kdwards. ‘The motion te show caure why a tem: ipjune- tiem should not be granted, restraining Mr. Forrest from leering ite State, was brought on. Mr. John ‘an Buren commenced by saying, that this is an application on the part of the defendant, in « euit in the Supreme Court of the State of. ¥ Catberine N.

The fomaining er is an affidavit of Mr. Forrest, which states that Frested on the llth September by a sheriff's cer, On application to this court, the present pre- Siding Judge (Edwards) granted that the detendant be beard, why a temporary injunction should not be gtanted restraining him from proceeding in Pennsyl- yauia. It may, however, be necessary to rew sineleiat; but he would mot now detain the court by Dg tO. Mr. O'Connor (Mrs. Forrest's counsel) observed, that the motion was to be d, but if any afd which the order was {Tike to'bave notive; they might it would be to be read, he shoul contain matter of great materiality, wh! necessary to have oopentenity of & course would be for Mr. Van Buren to serve hii the aMdavit, that they may reply toit. He, however, acmitted the undoubted right of a party who had been arrested, to be heard as early aa possible. Mr. Van Buren, after some conversation with Mr. Edwin Forrest, who was in Court, said he would go on with the motion, and he offercd to read the affidavit, Mr. O'Conor objected, and the said thet the motion must be made on the papers used for the ar- rest. Mr. Van Buren then said he should leave it to the would briefly call the attention ot the Court to the particulars of the complaint. It undertakes to set out three causes of action. The second revised sta- tutes, rec. 50, 6 146, allows a separation from bed and board forever on the complaint of « married wo- man, on three cases; section 49 states the causes for which the Court may grant the divorce. First, for erucl and unusual treatment; second, for such con- duct as may render it unsate for her to cohabit with him d third, his abandonment and refusal to her. Ashe (Mr. V. B) understood this com- it, it begins with the last ground-the abapdon- nt by the husband, and his retasal to support, nd continues with the same inverse order which has cbaracterized the proceedings ever since they com- menced. The complaint then refers toa case pendin, im Penurylvania between Mr. and Mrs Forrest, au demands that in that suit he be enjoined and re- strained Uy the Supreme Court here, Lt is, how: ever, wortby of remark that the sbaadonment by the husband. as stated in Mrs. Forrest’s sffidavit, ie, as subsequently stated in the same document, t! be put her into « dwelling Bouse in this city and al- lows her $1,600 a year; but it states that she ppre- hensive he will cease todo so. The refusal to provide for her, consists in her apprehensions that he will cease todo 80. Ie (counsel) supposed that the com- jainant has no right te proceed in this suit except by le next friend, who would be responsible for costs, and he referred to the decision of Judge Edmonds ia the case of Coit vs. Coit. Next, he would say there is ‘no fact stated in the bill, which, even if trae, would authorize the proceedings, ‘The only thing that gives color to the bill is, after etating the allowance, she says that the exid Kdwin Forrest, unless restrained, will leave the Stete of New York. and not return to the same, But no facts stated justify any such apprehension, and there is no argument which could justify it. Mr Forrest was witbout the jurisdiction of this State. and he commenced these proceedings, which, counsel was of opinion, cow!d not be stopped by any order of this Court. In the twentieth section of Mrs Forrest's com- | plaint, itis stated chat no person who could be « wit- | ness rerides within the State of Pennsylvania, and every person who could be ® material witness, with one or two exceptions, resides in or near New York. But there was a looseness in the affidavits apparent. and he would direct attention to it before the case was ended, Mr. O'Conor asked Mr. Van Buren to read the last sentence of the twenty-first section. Mr. Van Buren said he would come to that in regu- lar order, Ie contended that there was no fact stated to justify the issuing of the writ from this court, and he continued to read sections twenty and twen- ty-first of Mrs, Forrest's depositions, She says that alleged to be false. and that he could not give evidence against her. Mr. Van Buren then referred to the one hundred and feventy-eighth section ef the code, which pro- vides how all arrests shall be made, and which states that po arrest shall be made but in conformity with these provisions, and he presumed that none of these requisitions had been complied with inthis ease, [He then referred to the case of Fuller ys. Emmett, 7 Lega Observer, and other cases. Me. O'Conor, om the part of Mrs. Forrest, stated that the complaint presents three distinct causes of action —Firet, ‘cbenicoment, and failure to provide for this lady according to the means of the husband; next, such conduct towards the wife as would render it uneafe and improper for her to cohabit with him ; the third caure of action, Mr. Van Buren says, relates to s suit pending in Pennsylvania, by Mr. Forrest, against hiswife. There is aslight mistake there; it does om- menced a suit in Pennsylvania, she being, during the pe- r residence in America. a resident of the State of New York; and the fact that Mr. Forrest pepe | never ceased to be a resident of the Btate of NewY 1tis an application of @ citizen of the State ot New York against another citizen of the State of New York, to restrain proceedings in another State, on charges leges to be without foundation. This lady wee reared ina { country, brought here by her ded in this State for ten years; in- troduced apy as @ citizen of New York. Can he now go off to a foreign State—or another confederacy— and commence a ruit against her, have her served with the powers of the foreign court, and compel her | to go there and defend the suit. or else be blasted with fence cbarged ie that the lady, nas been guilty ofthat fence charg at the ity of t of which the State of New York has absclutely » what excuse is there for his to the State of Penn- sylvania ! | The attempt of counsel, at the other side, toc! Mr Forrest with loose swearing, has been mede rather hastily, and hasas little foundation, in fact. as the other legations against her. His learned o entcoatends that the complaint should be made ¥ & next friend. and that no sufficient case is shown for issuing the xe ereet. He then referred to Denton v. Denton, Ist Johnson's Chan: Reports. (Reads the case) Mr. Forrest's property is sworn to be about $200,000. In all these caves that counsel quoted, the “information and belief’ of the deponent is con- sidered suffics thongh he need not rely upen that, ns there are facts sworn to, Even where @ wife is put — ina house by hereelf, she has means of ascer- taining euch facta aa are stated in thore afidavite, (Reads the third cause of action, aud 19th sect! in which Mre. Forrest states that she will not appear to the sult in Peomsylvania.) Now this complaint con- tains ether matter, showing that Mr. Forrest is going to leave the state of New York; the complaint is supported by an affidavit, which he would read, in order to show that there is good cause to suppose the Intention is true.
