THE NEW YORK HERALD. WHOLE NO. 6002. MORNING EDITION----SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1850. “DOUBLE SHEET.

Mauirax Teteorarn OFricer, Fripay Mornina, 10 o’clock. ‘The Cambria sailed from Liverpool at M., Nov. 2, and has just arrived, having been detained off the harbor several hours, owing to very dense Jand fogs. She has 26 through passengers, and 17 -for Halifax. The political news by the Cambria is of more than usual interest. Since the sailing of the Atlantic, cotton has re- -eeded jd.

Total sales for the week, 39,780 bales, of which about 7,000, including 2,000 Ameri- can, were taken by speculators, and about 4,000, in- ~cluding 1,000 American, have been taken by ex- orters.

The Church of England, through her bishops and - clergy, seconded by several of the leading journals of the country, is calling for penal enactments to -extinguish the new titles assumed by the Roman «hierarchy. A deputation of the clergy waited upon the Bishop of London on Friday, to present an saddress previously determined upon, at Zion College. The deputation was cordially received ~by the Bishop, who expressed his entire satisfac- ation with the nature of the address, and strongly carged that every parish should at once prepare ‘xd forward an address to the throne, at this cri- ‘tical period. The Standard states, on high autho- rity, that Her Majesty was most anxious to receive the addresses of her loyal people, and their uncompromising determination to resist this impu- dent interference with her authority. The French Republic, The appointment of General Schfamm to the of- “fice of Minister of War, has not led to a better un- derstanding between the Prince and General Chan- garnier ; there have been, in fact, greater disputes thanever. Generals Schramm and Changarnier have hada serious quarrel. The dismissal of Ge- neral Newmayer from his appointment as second under Changarnier, and the difficulties arising therefrom, have led to a cabinet council, at which the decree dismissing Newmayer was reconsidered, ‘and a fresh decree issued, appointing him to a higher command of the fourteenth and fifteenth military divisions, the head quarters of which are ‘at Nantes. The General having refused to accept ‘the command tendered to him, he had forty-eight ‘hours granted him for consideration of the subject. | General Changarnier strongly urges him to accept the post. Numerous arrests have been made of parties concerned in the late discovered conspiracy at Lyons, which is said to have had extensive ramifications. Late advices from Algiers state that the cholera had reappeared there, and the deaths intwo days amounted to 150. On Thusrday, the 3ist ult., there was a fair bu- siness done on the Bourse. Fives opened at ‘1.90, and closed at 92f. Hesse Cassel. ‘The German papers received on Wednesday, confirm the accounts respectiag the movements of Austrian troops in support of the Bavarian force, which is about to enter electoral Hesze. A telegrephic despatch from Cassel of the 28th ult, in the Coloner Zeitung, states that in the «gouree of Sunday night all the troops at Cassel re- ceived orders to leave that city, and that they are marching to Hazan; they will thus be in a position to join the Bavarians and Austrians as soon as they cater the Electorate. A telegraph despatch of the 29h ult., from Cas- vel, states that an army of Bavarian troops was hourly expected to enter the Electorate. The removal of the State Treasury from Cassel had been determined on. The arsenal had been - emptied of all the military stores. The command of the Prussian corps of the army of the Rhise had been given to the Duke of Sax- enburgh Gotha. The Cologne Gazette contai Frankfort lettere of the 20th ult., which state that the Hessian croops in Haynau, in the environs of Frankfort, we been disbanded, and were compelled to give up their arms and accoutrements. The same eaper states that the Elector and his ministers, after protesting against the Bavarian invasion of the Electorate, have suddenly altered their views, and given their consent to the entry into Hesse of a Bavarian army—that army was expected to ar- rive on the 30th ult. The Muyence Journal also states from Haynaa, of the 23d, that the Bavarians and Austrians were to enter the Electorate army, which was on that day to be assembled in the -rovince of H oyaen, ap. Mo authentic information has been received of she result of thé Conference at Warsaw, between the Emperois of Russia £24 Austria and the King of graphic despatch from Berlin, of the 30¢h wt, which ates that information has been received from “Warsaw, according to which the Prussian propo- -enlshave been peremptorily declined. Denmark, tooyia not likely to necede to the proposal of a Danish and German commission to settle the difti- culties of the Danish question. The Berlin ministerial paper, German Reformer, denies that Prussian officers, in full uniform, are allowed to join the Schleswig /{olsteiners. The Times Berlin correspondent writes that no- thing has oceurred during the visible and external roceedings of the Congress at Wareaw to lessen ihe hope that its issue would be favorable to the a. . continuance of peace nasteta. ‘The correspondent of the London Timer, under , states that public feeling wae Prussia; but the Cologne Gazette contains a tele- | aroused, and that even the most apathetic go s0 far as to declare that they should have no great objection to shoulder a musket againt Pruasia. The Morning Chronicle is informed that Austria will never yield on the federal question. The German papers are occupied with the move- ment of troops to Hesse Cassel. India and China. We have advices by telegraph from London to Liverpool, from Bombay to October 2d, Calcutta September 21, and from Alexandria to October 21. Except commercially, the news is destitute of in- terest. At Bombay, the import market was dull, and many articles had declined, owing to the un- promising prospect of the crops, and the unfavora- ble English and Chinese cotton reports. In the export market, business was extremely dull. The London mail, of the 7th of August, arrived at Cal- cutta on the 18th Sept. were less abundant,than usual, and prices, general- ly were firm. Sugar had advance, and also Lanca- ire cottons, many holders refusing to sell at price. Gray shirting are 4s. to 8a. per piece, White jaconets Se. to Ge. Higher freight 1 had given way; sugarto Liverpool, £3 5s. Jute in active demaid. Saltpetre dull. Indigo unchanged at Alexandria. The prices of all ls of produce are well sustained, except wheat, as de- clined a trifle. A great many veasels are reported to have arrived, but the despatch gives no names. Markets. In corn, flour and wheat, there is no perceptible change. Dull market. Provisions generally dull. Beef, nothing doing; pork dull, but stock low. Bacon is in demand, with light stock. Shoulders well supplied. Lard is firm at previous rates. Tallow 6d. lower. Linseed cake unchanged. Ashes—No change. Coffee— Quiet. Tea was in moderate but steady demand. Sugar—Transactions were limited, but prices firm. Naval Stores, but particularly rosin, go off well. Cod Oil—£37 per tun, and in demand. Tobacco was in more active demand from the trade and speculators, at advancing rates. Consols closed on Friday at 97}, after a very fluctuating market. We have telegraphic advices from Havre, dated Thursday evening, which inform us that the mar- ket there is calm, and the transactions limited. The sales on that day until 2 P M., only amounted to 153 bales very ordinary New Orleans, at 115f. to 11Sf. 50. The eales for the week, up to Oct. 30th, are stated at 12,400 bales.

Le had never redeemed that pledge, end the time had now come tor him to tell the reason why he bad not done so. The reason was, that be found the Hon. John C.

Le suffered the time to pass without opening the discussion, and soon there was no occasion for it The object im view had been accom plished in & manner more sgreeabdle to him.

This incre- | dulity in the disunion scheme t vanished, for he then knew that the people would take care of the Union themselves. Ile said that Messrs. Tay- | jor, Clay and Benton started, standing upon | the platform of commom sense, reason and jus- | tice, viz, that every measure should rest upon | ite own merits, General Taylor kept the track till he died, and left him (Colonel Benton) to end the race. | Mr. Clay bolted—an operation easy to him, for he had rerved an apprenticeship to the business of changing. | He must have all the bills bundled together into what ¥ alled the compromise bill.

It had also prevented M: 2 | souri from sending delegates to the Nashville Von' tion. He wae very severe on the anti-Benton party. He thought their course was characterized by hatred tos man— and infernal—and neither whigs | or democrats should affiliate with them. There were twelve in the last Assembly 0; d to | him, and about the same number in this. Most of the others are in banks. on benches, and in nullification caucuses. There are few besides; and between them and him, now and for ever, igh walls jeep | aitches—no fellowship, communion or compromise. ‘This is the watchword of the anti-Benton men. N. they will compromise upon any man but Benton. That is, having failed to destroy him. they wit buy him, and give him all the offices in Missouri as pur- chase money. The devil was a compromiser—he offered to compromise with Christ, by offering him all the land in the world—although the devil not own one foot of it. So it is with the anti-B nians—they do not own one office in Missouri —yet they offer all. He agsin alluded to the Union meeting in St. Louis, brought in Mr. Clay, and handled all without gloves. He concluded his epeech by a reference to the various bills that had already been passed and would here- atter be presented to Congress for the advancement of Western interests. GEORGE THOMPSON, THE ABOLITIONIST. HIS RECEPTION AT BOSTON, EXTRAORDINARY SCENE IN FANEUIL HALL, THE NEGROES AND ABOLITIONISTS HISSED OUT. TREMENDOUS CHEERING FOR DANIEL WEBSTER AND THE UNION. A kee Dance, and Groans for John Bull. Boston, Nor. 15, 1850, The meeting in Fanueil Hall for the reception of George Thompson, the English abolitionist, was very large, and the galleries contained many ladies. Kd- mund Quincy presided. When Mr. Thompson entered the hall, he was greeted with shouts of appiaase trom his friends, mingled with hisses from the other party. Wm. Lrorp Gannison commenced the proceedings by reading the address of reception, containing a history of Mr. Thompson’s movements in the anti-slavery cause, in England and this country, and concluded by stating that just fifteem years ago be was obliged to Hy clandestinely from this country; “but,” said the tpeaker,’’ “thank God, the Boston of 1835 is not the Boston of 1850. The Massachusetts of 1850 is not the Masrachusetts of 1835." (Loud cheers.) Towards the close of Mr. Garrison's remarks, the meeting began to be disorderly, and when he finished, many cheers were given for Daniel Webster and the Union, Wenpatt Paitiirs next ascended the platform, but was greeted with groans, hisses and exclamations which completely drowned his voice. Loud cheers were again given for “the Union and Daniel Webster, and for Governor Briggs, and a Lind.” Mr. Prutisrs appealed to them to hear Mr. Thomp- son, and wipe off the stain of 1835, when Boston drove | him off a fugitive. Mr. P. then retired, and Mr. Tiomrson took the stand, but instantly the Hall became a perfect bed- lam of noise and confusion—he tried to speak, batin vain, Cheers were reiterated for “the U a Web- | ster,” intermingled with groans, cat calls and hisses. After remaing upon the stand for time, Mr. | T. bowed to the audience and was about to retire, but his friends would not permit him— air was hand. | ed and he sat down fronting the audience. From this time the anti-abolitionists had it all their own way, Groans were given for John Bull, a ring was formed on the floor, and one or two commenced dancing. Avery Kevty was called for and endeavored to speak; but after uttering a few centences stopped. The Ney. Ws, Henny Guasnixa next appeared, but his voice was drowned in hisses and outcries. The Rey. Trxopone Pannen next ascended the plat- form. He mately pointed to the pictures of Washing- ton, Adams and others, and endeavored to make him- self heard—but the cries were redoubled. The Parsonnt of the meeting, at thie point. came forward and shook bande with Mr. Thompson, e dewed to t dience, and rotired amidst thunders of | applause.

Nasnvitix, Tenn., Noy, 15, 1850. The members of the convention having assembled, the States were called upon for resolutions. Mr. Breed, of Ga., presented resolutions, in effect, de- clearing the recent legislation by Congress as a direct attack by the North upon the rights of the South, and that this convention cherished # hope that Texas would repuke the abolitionists by spurning the pro- position. If Texas acceded, the convention protests against the set as grievance to the South—a repe- tition of which would be a just cause of secession. The Committee on Resolutions asked leave to set during the session of the convention, and would re- port to morrow. Granted. A motion to adjourn failed. Mr. McWuanren, of Ga., presented the following re- solution:— Resolved, That it should be the policy of thia Con- yention, while it stirs up some to a higher grade of feeling, to restrain others who would rush into fatal action without the necessary preparation, Mr. McWuaarex spoke at some length in support of his resolution, and wished the Convention to accept the “stirring up” part, which he undertook te do most effectually. Mr. Crarsounne, of Tenn., followed, ina strong se- cession tone.
