Clay and Cast, who acted on this occa- | sion as they did throughout the whole sessiou— | that is, in favor of a settlement of the slavery ques- | tion, and in opposition to agitation. The Senate then took up the bill to prevent the enticing of slaves from their owners, but did not act upon it. | In the House, a resolution to admit Mr. Babbitt, | delegate from Utah, was rejected, on the ground | that he was elected prior to the formation of a g vernment for that teritory. After some debate, | the House agreed to pay the instalment of $3,250,- @C0, due to Mexico under the treaty of Guadalupe | ington correspondent informs us that Mr. Webster, Secretary of State, is in possession of information which requires the Water Witch and Vixen vessels of war to leave for Cuba imme: ately. This has reference, no doubt, to recent events in that quarter. We are informed there ere movements on foot | for the extengion of our steam navy, by formiag a | line (o ply betweea California and Canton. We | must have our steam navy increased, in erde. to keep pace with the progress of the age and with the growth of our commerce | | | | The Turkish Envoy's Misston—Progress and | Destiny of Turkey, | Amin Pey, the distinguished envoy of his Impe- rial Highne Abdul Medjid, the Sultan of Tar- key, has left thie city for Washington, where he will receive, doubtless, all those honors and atten- | tions to which he is entitled as the representative | of the yeuthful monarch of Turkey. The objects of his mission being to gaina knowledge, by direct observation, of our institutions, of our public schools, of our great naval and marine enterprises, and of our commercial wishes and designs, the government will be very desirous to afford him every facility for making correct estimates of our commercial, social and political character as a people. Already the visits of Amin Bey, in this country, have given him great satisfaction, and he has been received everywhere with great liberality and hospitality. The public press, with one ex- ception, has been very kindly disposed towards the distinguished visiter, and this is a broad evi- dence that the people have a strong interest in the foture welfare of the Sultan's empire The exception to which we refer isa Wall street journal of the largest dimensions, and small circu- Jation, professing to teach truths with respect to the history, prospects, and probable destiny of | Turkey. Never were more egregious blunders made upon any subject. The journel in question has picked up a few Anglo-Russian ideas—some of the Trollopian scandal of some scribbling adven- turer--without regard to the great philosophical outlines of history, by which the future ef the Turkieh empire alone can be bounded. The his- tory of the Ottoman empire, though less familiar to men than that of Europe, is not a whit less in- teresting or important. The natural prejudices of Christian nations, for centuries, have shut out the truth with respect to the advancement of this great people in the scale of political being. The religion of Mahomet, however, has had an influence upon the world not less important ia its results than that cf Christianity. Commencing to develope it- self towards the end of the sixth century, it spread with vast rapidity over Asia, Africa and Southern Europe. It established itself in Moroeco, in Spain, actually advanced into the cold northern oli- mates, sustained by powerful dynasties in various parte of the East--wae fully founded in the tenth century—grew to grea’ power in the thirteenth cen- tury, cverwhelmed Persia and the East general- ly, and had a vast effect upon Europe, in the four. teenth century.

The transition state that marked Europe at the time of the reformation,'has just commenced in Turkey. A new order of ideas has set in upon ancient customs. Old religious customs have been | abolished as unsuited to the age and‘to the digni- fied character of man. An edict has passed, for- bidding any more eunuchs—all rehgions enjoy equal privileges—the inhabitants are subjected to | fewer impositionsthan formerly—and the desire of the Sultan is to establish education on a broad and liberal basis. The spirit of liberty has pierced the whole empire, and is slowly but surely working Tue Trrat or tHe Davrys—More Mystenies Comma Ovr—Svuppen Disarreanance or Wanner —ARrEsT AND ImrnisonmENT or Ong-Evep Tuomr- son.—The trial of the two Drurys, on the charge of making and sending the famous torpedo to the house of Warner, and there exploding, was again called up in the Cowrt of (yer and Terminer, yes- terday; but it was again postponed and set down for Friday (to-morrow), in consequence of the ex- traordinary and sudden disappearance of Warner himself, the principal witness and accuser of Drury, The debate and decision growiug out of these matters, will be found elsewhere in our columns, and will be read with increased and increasing in- terest. It seems, from ail that has been developed thus far, that Warner has been preparing for this dis- appearance for some time past.

The petty intrigues of European powers may seek to disturb the wise an4 judicious reforms which the present liberal Sultan is carry- sorb the territory of the Ottoman, cannot prevail. Interested scribblers may seek, by misrepresenta- tions, to give a false picture of the improvements set in motion by the present Sultan; but they can- | not abridge the truth of its beautiful proportions. | His Imperial Highness has determined to grant to | principal witness, under all the circumstances of all the inhabitants full security of life, honor, and property, and though he is beset with pachas, beys, beglerbeys, and mohassils, wh» do not implicitly heed the wise and wholesome de- | erees which he has made for the good government | of the empire, yet it cannot be doubted that in time he will achieve the great work of his ambi- n. Itisno easy task to eradicate error, and to | bring about, out of corrupt chaos, a brilliant erder of new things; but the approach to it has been made, and the epoch of the Turkish reformation, in reali- {t is, perhaps, true that there may be Swartwouts and Hintons in the realms of the Sultan; but we do nei, on that account, des- pair of @ prosperous futuie for the empire. Cer- tainly, we should deem the desire of the Wall street jourpal, already noticed, the very worst that could happen to Turkey. Once permit the Russian | power to have unrestrained passage to the Mediter- renean, and give Turkey in Asia to the convulsive grasp of Great Britain, and the world would be hur- ried into a series of disasters of the most deplora- ble character. We have urged, and still urge, the cultivation of closer commerciul relations with Turkey. The ships of Austria, Russia, Greece, and England, are much more numerous in the varions ports of the The Bri- tish vessels are as five to one against us. This The trede can be extended so es to that the government at Washington, independent of all political consideration,{end apart from the de- | sire to secure the future peace of the Turkish em- pire against certain contemplated attacks, will make such treaties and open such relations as will be a benefit to us and to the world at large. Meanwhile, the commercial broad-sheets of Wall street may seek to find seme of their mercantile advertising friends, who are willing, like them, to see Euro- pean nations ride, rough-shod, over the great Mo- | hammeden nation, the day of whose reformation has come, as assuredly as that of Luther did for | the Chnstian world. NomixaTions nevore THE SENare.—The great delay of the Senate in acting upon certain impor- tant nominations for collectors and postmasters, and particularly those now befere them, causes some attention, and many inquiries are made into the real causes of their postponement in voting upon them. Many persons believe that the delay of the Senate will extend beyond the present session, and that their purpose is not to act on those nominations at all during the present ses- sion. It is very likely that such is the case ; and if true, the nominations will of course fall to the ground, and the P: upon to appoint other candi offices left over by the Senate. In such a condition of things, the collectors of New York and Phila- delphia, and several postmasters in this and other States, will very likely be changed immediately after the adjournment of Congress. Indeed, it has been for some time a question of po- a judgment on his real estate in New York, in fa- vor of Doctor Moffat, for $8,000 and some odds. The furniture of his house was removed on Tues- | ing forward with al) possible efficiency; but the | day, or a few days since, and he himself has gone | designs of Russia and England to subvert and ab- | off to the country—to the springs—to the sea shore—to California—to Europe—or to the devil— no one seems to know—not even Mr. M’Keon, the District Attorney, or his assistant, Mr. D. Graham, who ought to know. Now this is a most singular disappearance of a the mystery. According to the proceedings yes- terday, it seems that Mr. Horace F. Clark pre- sented a notice some months since, calling upon the prosecuting attorney to take measures for the purpose of securing the attendance of Warner, as is frequently the practice in other criminal cases. To this notice, neither Mr. MeKeon nor Mr. Gra- ham paid any attention. In consequence of this negligence, a principal witness is found ab- sent, and the ends of public justice are defeated and delayed. Is this right, or proper, or vigilant ? What will Mr. McKeon do ia such a dilemma? Why did he not secure the attendance of Warner and his witnesses? Will not malicious people associate the high character of Messrs. McKeon and Graham with such a mysterious disappear- ance? Where has Warner gone? Who has ac- companied him? Is Miss Busby with him? Is there any clause in the famous new code that can solve this difficulty !—that can unravel this mys- tery? We see no other solution than for Mr. McKeon | to proceed to trial at once with the Drurys—to settle that case tirst—and then to take instant steps in seerch of the true culprits. It is time to begin. He has delayed long enough. It is time to show that he knows his duty. Already the preparatory steps are taken to reach the real criminals, and to do tardy justice to innocence. We see that Mr McKeon, himself, has issued an ettachment for ‘Warner—and we learn further, that warrants have | been issued by Justice Mountfort for the arrest | of Warner and One-eyed Thompson, on the cri- | minal charge of conspiring to make and to send | that torpedo for the purpose of blowing up old Mra. Warner, and thereby creating a vacancy in War- ner’s heart and house, to be filled up with the | beautiful Miss Busby. One-eyed Thompson was | arrested yesterday afiernoon, and is now in prison—all enug. We should not be surprised | to learn that warrants were soon to be issued for | the arrest of Wilkes, Warner, and Thompson—all in a row—for conspiracy in the famous rat council in Brooklyn, and in other acts, for the pur- pose of sending Drury, an innocent old man, | to the State prison for a term of years. The tables are now turmed—and the truth of | the torpedo mystery is coming out, slowly but surely. Benjamin Galbraith, the never tiring | and vigilant counsel, was the first who dug out of obscurity the real lineaments of that mystery, in the libel suit lately brought by Wilkes, to screen himeelf; and Mr. G. possesses affidavits and evi- deace on this subject, which, if made public, would astound the whole world, and all the stool pigeon gangs in creation. This strange case comes up again to-morrow, and it will be curious to see what course Mr. Mc- Keom will take to get out of the dilemma into | which his good heart, but simple intellects, have got him, by the arts of Warner and his gang. We never shall quit this subject until justice is dealt to ail concerned—the innocent as well as the guilty. Who cangive us afull biography of Warner, Wilkes and Thompson, with sketches of their coadjutors t licy among the friends of Mr. Fillmore in this State, whether he should not revoke or with- draw the names of a number of persons ap- pointed to office in this State, and which are yet before the Senate awaiting their action. Mr. Bene- dict, Postmaster at Albany, and various others of the same class, in the interior of New York, may soon be removed from their places. Lf the Presi- dent wants to be respected by his friends, he should take positive and distinct ground on this, as well as ‘on other questions, and come up to the scratch like aman. A vast responsibility rests upen him in the present position of polities in New York, and the future prospect of parties. The whig party here are in a state of transition, and are on the verge of a most signal defeat, or on the threshold of main- taining power for a great length of time. If Wm. H. Seward and his clique be permitted to control the whig party in New York, the democracy will soon be in the ascendant, not only here, but throughout the Union, and will remain so for many years to come. Tre Firawen any THe Common Cor: xewt.—The Joint committee appointed to investigate the charges made by the Chief Engineer of the Fire Depart- ment sgainst the Common Council, met yes terday evening in the City Hall, but made no progress in the business committed to their charge.

So far so geod. We also learn j thas they insist upen conducting the proceedings with closed doors, and excluding the press and the public. The committee of the Fire Department were willing to admit both; but the Common Council committee would not aseent to it. We have no hesitation im saying that this isan out- | Tageous procedure—en insult to the people of New York. It is perfectly natural that the Common Couneil should wish to conceal everything con- nected with those charges, for evil doers prefer They will be compelled, how. ever, to back out from thie position too.

ANOTHER FALLING BUILDING. Mn J. G.

The occurrence from which yeur reperter drew his inferences was a very simple one. A singe beam was supported by an z ht, which upright rested upon cand. Several of the laborers were dieging in this quarter, and, although frequently cautioned, carelessly undermined the up- right, when, of course, down cam: e beam. This was the “tremendous crash’. single beam! The building still remains where it was, and is likely to do 80 for some time to come.

QUIMBY, 3033 or —_—_— MONEY MARKET. Wroxespay, Sept. 18—6 P.M. ‘Bhe stoek market continues active. Speculation ig evidently extending, and as quetations for the fancies advance, outsiders take hold with more spirit. This class of operators always come in upon arising mar- ket; and we have nv doubt but that there would be more activity in the street, and a greater number of outsiders amoug purchasers, at prices three or five per cent above prices now current. There were very ex- tensive transactions in Reading Reilroad stock to-day, the sales summing up nearly four thousand shares. Erie Income Bounds were in demand at au advance. There are large orders in the street for the purchase of these bonds, and parties holding them have kept aloof, with the hope thet lower prices would rule, and the orders filled upon better terms, Such hopes have been abandoned, and there are more purchasers in the market at current prices than sellers. At the first board, Erie Income Bonds advanced 1 per cent; Brie Second Mortgage Bonds, 1s; Farmers’ Loan, 4; Morrie Canal, 4: Reading Railroad, 1; Erie Ratiroad, 'y; Nar~ iem, %. We notice large transactions on time, seller's option, which is considered indicative of confidence ya the minds of purchasers in an improvement ie prices. The receipte at the office of the Assistant Treasurer amounted to $88,108; payments, $5. 81 70. At the second board the market was very buoyant, and there was considerable activity im the leading fam cles. Erie second mortgage bonds, advanced \ pet cent; Harlem, *;; Farmers’ Loan, *, The tendency of prices at the close was upward. ‘The receipts of the Verment and Massachusetts Railroad Company, for the first eight months of 1850, amounted to $110,677 37; same time in 1849, $92,201 39; increase in 1850, $18.475 98, equal to twenty per cent. The greatest increase was inthe months of Jaly ana August. In relation to the traffic of railroad companies ia New England, the Boston Traveller says:—"From ail the accounts we can gather, the receipts on most of the roads have very considerably increased during the last few months. and it is confidently asserted by some of the directors that the exhibit of earnings at the clese of the year will surprise those who have dis- trusted the real value of such securities for invert ment. About allthe new projects which have beer started within the last few years will be completed by the first of October; and it will probably be along time befere any new roads will be proposed. #0 that time will be allowed to develope the capabilities of those in operation, i ascertain their real value for investment before capitalists will be called upon to epgage in any new enterprise.’” ‘The annexed statement exhibits the quantity of certain articles exported from this port, for the weelc ending the 17th inst., distinguishing t® destination and extent of shipments to each place:— getets Secttees SERGE.
