Summary of Intelligence. By our accounts from Washington, we learn that the two houses of Congress, if they have not alrea- dy entered upon the business before them, are pre- | paring to do so. According to preseat appear- ences, a good deal of werk will be done during the short session. A variety of subjects of importance | were referred to yesterday, but without any con- clusion being arrived at. Among them were pr emption rights; the subject of establishing a re- ciprocity of trade between Canada and the United States; a bill securing tu dramatic writers the bene- fit of their produclions; the question of establishing additional ports of entry in Oregon; the free land syste; cheap postage, aad several other mea, | sures of great public interest. | From what we leara, there is every probability | ‘that among the first business that will be taken up and dirpored of, will be the cheap postage bill; the river end harbor bill; and the bill branch mint in the city of New York. All these measures are very important, and it is desirable they should be acted upon as soon as possible. Mc ge, es we learn by our telegraphie corres- ience, did not make much by his movement on Monday egainst the Fu, ave law. The slight roffile which his speech caused on the politi- cal cea in Washington, has, according to our ac- counts, disappeared, and we are happy to see that | the waters are as plucid as before. This avgurs | well ‘or harmony in our national councils during | the session, and we hope that the good sense of the patriotic and censible members of both houses will be exercised, to the maintenance of the calm, | which now exists at the Cepito!. It would seem es if the disunionists and fanatics had lost confidence in the ceuse in which they enlisted, and were to be allowed en opportunity to fall back into the insigni ficance from which they ought not to have been allowed toemerge. Inactivity is no doubt the best policy which these disorganizera could pursue, for | they cannot but have perceived the tremendous Teaction in public opinion which has taken place on the question of slavery since the last session, and the desire which prevails almost everywhere that the peace measures shall remain the law of | the lond. The seeming determination by the ma- jority in Congress to disregard the agitators, shows | that the change in public opinion has been felt on all sides. We perceive that it is propored to make General Scot: Lieutenant General. warrior and good citizen will be complimented ia that wey. His exploits form a brilliant page in cur history, and will never be forgotten.as long as grati- | tude exists in the human bosom. He is nowin the sere and yellow leaf of life, and we would like to see him hovored when liviag, as well as his memo- Ty revered when no more. Le certainly deserves well of his country. Whe United States, Great Britain, and Nica- ragua. {n enother column will be found a very inte- resting document from Nicaragua. It contains the buses of an additional convention between that republic and this confederacy, the benefits of which we may enjoy, if the treaty now before the United States Senate is ratified. Mr. Squier made | that treaty in terms of good faith, and it will bea despicable act on our part, toleave the Nicaragua government to entertain opinions untavorable to the honor ofour country, by permitting Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer, and a few speculators in the Nica- regua Canal Company, te barter away our national | faith for the furtherance of a project concerning | the success of which there may be some reasonable doubts, while the stipulations with Nicaragua are trampled under foot. We seriously fear that there have been any- thing but honest or dignified means employed to bring the Niceragua Canal Company into public favor. The history of the speculation i# not the most plan and straightforward, and the prelimi- Bary success has been atiended by erreumstances | which, we think, are disgraceful to the reputation | ofour country, and unjust towards one of the most | efficient officers in the public service. Mr. Squier was ¢miuently petriotic in his acts daring his con- m with the Nicaraguan republic. He dist himself by his diplomacy and zeal ia the | Island «flair — etood aloof frem business | speculations of every kind, and could aot be made to favor the canal compeny's desigas, any further than was warranted by the publie interests. We find him, in the very midst of his im- | portant labors, however, taken away by the | government from the seene of his useful and realous activity—while we find Sir Henry Lyt- | ton Bulwer strengely in taining to this canal project and Quixote movement of the British Minis what immediately arose?

Yet these powers have as much right to do this country ready to join with England in this piratical work, that Nicaragua may be forced to eubmis- | between the two sec'ions of the country: sion? Ona review of the entire case—on an examina- | it e contemptible, abominable and treasonable pro- tion of its history from the first moment—we are | ceeding—one which ought to consign to eternal ig- satisfied that the entire businees of negotiation with Great Britain, in this matter, has been wrong. From this movement on our part, to aid the canal company in obtaining funds, have sprung all the difficulties and complications of the question. We want no treaties with Great Britain—assuredly not, till the terms of those now existing are observed. We cannot possibly have anything to gain by an least of all, do we wish to be connected with a go- vernment that would re- produce upon this continent the history of those aggressions which have mark- ed the progress of Great Britain in India. Our re- lations with Nicaragua are all that we desire to preserve. By the treaty negotiated with that re- public, under President Taylor’s instructions, and already ratified by thet State, and now awaiting the action of our own federal Senate, not only ere ihe ports at the extremities of the proposed canal made free ports, but all the ports of that republic are placed ia the same position. They are not only made free to us, but to the whole world—and upon. equal conditions—conditions to which no natioa can object, except it is England, and she only while she continues to insist upoa her uajust and absurd encroachments on the sheres of Mosquitia. The | thirty-fifth article of the treaty befere the Senate is as annexed :— “tis and bas been stipulated, by and between the high contracting parti “Jet. That the citizens, vessels. and merchandise of the Uniced States, shall enjoy in all the ports and | | harbors of Nicaragua, upon bith oceans, » total ex emption trom all port charges, tounage, of anchorage Cuties, or any other similar charges now existing or which may hereafter be established in manner the fume as it said ports had been declared free ports | whatever ; end no toils, duties or charges of any kind, rhall be imposed upon the transit, in whole or peri, by such modes of communication, of vesreis of war, oF other property belouging to the government of the United Staies. of on public mails sent under the wi lawful produce, manufactures, merchandisy, or other property belorging to oltizens of the United States, | peseing from one ocean to the other, in either direc tom, tor the purpose of exportation to foreign coun- tries, rball not be subject to aay import or export duties whatever”? What further can be demanded or desired? shou'd we seek to negotiate with Great Britaia? Nicaragua, it is evident, is disposed to act with Her government, notwithstanding the aggressions | and outrages of Great Britain, will make no dis- adopted. kt properly seeks only its own property, and the recognition of its owa rights. ing with other countries, in all the benefits thrown open to the world. | The document which we now publish shows hat when the projected canal shall be carried nto execution, Nicaragna will herself establish free cities, both on the Aflantic and Pacific shores. The terms of this convention were arranged be- tween the Nicaraguan government and Mr. Squier, delays and interferences, might have been framed intoa special agreement. The death of Presideat Taylor, the impolitic removal of Mr. Squier, to whom this delicate negotiation was entrusted, and the very censurable policy now pursued to- wards Nicaragua, have now so far weakened, in all probability, the confidence of that republicin the sincerity ef our friendship, as to destroy our influ- ence with her people, and to render the consum- mation of these important grounds of a special con- vention a matter of impossibility. We publish the document, to show, however, the animus of Nica- ragua tow us, before we commenced making false steps, as well as to indicate our sense of the | justice to which that republic is eatitled. After this, we think that there is no independent mem ber of the Senate who will be at a loss to place at their full value, the rude and unwarraatable letters of Sir Henry Lytton Bulwer to Mr. Webster, now, we believe, in the hands of the Senate iteelf. Anoxition Inconsistency.—A great clamor is em States, egainst Southern Slavery-—an institu- tion to which they apply every hard name in the vocabulerly, and our Southern fellow citizens are denounced for not emancipating their slaves at once. Irrespective of other considerations, it may be asked what would the Southern States do with could they goto? Many of the free States have passed laws prohibiting free negroes from entering their confines, and others are preparing to follow their example. liven the Canadians are complain- ing of the number of fugitives that have escaped across the frontier snce the passage of the Fugitive Slave bill, and if they had the power, likewise enact by law that no ne- groee, whether bond or free, should settle in their territory. This is a specimen of the con- the South to do what they themselves refuse to do. | As it is, the South have a great many more free negroes than the Northera States, and we do not hear any complaints on the subject. This will be ng table, based on the census of the number of free negroes in tates, respectively :— SLAVE STATOR Delaware . 1S40, which sho the free end slave yRee states. Maine ..

This law has been passed ostensibly for ice of their rights; but the real ‘he South, and to prevent any reconciliation ‘We have, therefore, no hesitation 1m terming nominy and disgrace, all who took part in it. This is plain language, but we are not in the humor of choosing our words; when we see the Legislature of a sovereign State descend to such a petty and despicable course of action as the Legislature of Vermont has in this instance. This law—thus passed by the Legislature of Ver- mont—extends the benefit of the writ of habeas cor- pus to fugitive slaves. It makes it the duty of the several district ; ttorneys to use all lawful (?)means to protect, defend, and procure to be discharged, every person arrested as a fugitive slave; it autho- rizes the issuing of a writ of habeas corpus in every case where a fugitive is arrested ; it makes it the duty of ell judicial and executive officers who know or may have good reason to believe that any fugitive slave is about to be arrested, to give notice to the district attorneys of the fact; it provides that if, on the first hearing on the writ of habeas cor- pus, the fugitive, isnot discharged, he shall have the right of appeal, and on the second trial, the Court before whom, it takes place shall, on the demand of either party, direct a trial by jury. This is the sub- “stance of this abominable and unconstitutional law —a law which we pronounce, under the circum- stances, and with the motives with which it was passed, a blot on the statute book of Vermont, and a disgrace to that State. There capnot be the slightest doubt of the object and intention of the framers of this law. The Legis- lature could bave but oxe motive in pasaing it, and that is te nullify, as far as practicable, the Fugitive Slave bill passed at the last session of Congress, and to goad and annoy our Souther fellow-citi- zens. Neither was there any necessity for its pas- sage. for it is well known that there are but few it eny fugitive slaves in Vermont, the bleak and in- hospitable climate of that State rendering it uafit almost for the habitation of white people, to say nothing of blacks who have been born and reared under a Southern eun. Bat, if there ere any fugi+ | Uvee in Vermont, we do sincerely hope that their owners will take immediate measures for their re- covery, if for nothing else than to test this law, and | to prove to those Northern fanatics, that as ong es they are a part of this confederacy, insignificant a» thet part is, they shall not with impunity throw unpediments in the way of the execution of the laws pnssed by the Congress of the country, for the benefit of the coun- | try. We should like tosee the Fugitive Slave bill tested in that State, and incase any opposition hberalicy and fairness towards the whole world. | Were made to executing its provisions to the letter we should not regret if ail who opposed it were | reduced to aeense of thelr disregard of superior tinetions or exceptions to the general line of policy | law and plightedf aith, or, if that were impossible, of which there is every probability, to see them properly punished—end, if necessary, shot down probable that it will be necessary to resort to such . harsh meusuies, and we hope, if occasion requires it, such a couree of proceeding will be adopted to- wards thove incendiaries, and incipieat traitors to the country. From what we have seen of Mr, Fillmore, we believe that he will not hesitate to carry the Fugitive Slave bill, like any other law of the United States, into eflect, when necessary, and in doing so, in any State, and more especially in Vermont, we are satisfied he would be backed and | supported by niae-tenths of the people. A pretty State of things, surely, we have reached, when a single State undertakes to practically nullify a law of Congress! We beg of the South to keep quiet and allow the North to manage the fanaties which infest and disgrace it. They may rest satisfied that the Fugitive Slave law will be carried out, even if the sacrifice of a thousand lives be the con- sequence. Let the North and the South mark what we say.

Ali others closed at prices current yesterday. Government Btate stocks and railroad bonds were in demand. Within the past day or two, Erie Income Bonds have advanced about two per it, and the sales have been large at the improvement. It has been « matter of much astonish- ent tous that there bonds have remained so long s0 uch depreciated, end the advance realised is small compared what it should have been. There is a margin for » rise between present prices and par, particularly when it is considered that three and @ balf per cent interest is due on the Ist of February next. The market value of the stock rerges within ten per cent of the market value of the Income Bonds. The former bears but six per cent in- terest, while the latter bears seven per cent interest. ‘The full interest must be paid on the latter betore the former gets the first fraction. The conciasion is that the bonds are too low, or the stock is too high. Nor- of January, is no doubt attracting purchasers. It is, at preeent prices, one of the cheapest railroad stocks on the lit.

The principal articles exported were 14.819 bbls, of flour; 28.723 bashels of corn; 1,047 bbis. of corn meal; and 405 hhds of tobacco. Among the shipments were two full cargoes, prine!pally bread- stuffs. to Liverpool. 4 There were cleored, at the Baltimore Custom House, durivg themonth of October, 9-yesrele,viz.: 3 ships. 7 barks, § brige, amd 12 schooners, having an aggregate tonnage of 7,885 tone, and employing iu their navige- tion 222 men. Of these vessels 7 were British, 3 Bre~ men, 1] Hemburg. and 20 American. Their destinations were as follows: to various ports in the West Indies nd British provinces. 15; California, 6; Trieste, 1; Rio de Jeneiro, 1; Liverpool. 2; Pernambuco, 1; Taleabu- ana, 1; Bremen 2; Laguayra, 2; and Spanish Maia, 1 ‘The total value of the merchandise exported byrthese vessels was $776,497 21. inclading that to California, which smounted to $262987 69. By comparing the above with the monthly statement for October, it will be reeu that the numbor of foreign clearances at the Baltimore Custom Mouse, during the month of Novrem- ber, falls considerably short of those daring the pro- ceding month. While this is the case, however, the fact is presented that the value of the articles exported in November is considerably larger than it was for the month of October. ‘The entries froni foreign ports duriugthe month of November, were, 3 ships, 7 barks, 18 brigs, and 12 schooners, making a total of 40 vessels. During the same period, the arrivals from coastwise ports were, S ships, 6 barks, 18 brigs, and 90 schooners—in all, 118 ‘vessels— making the number of forcign and coastwise arrivals during the month, 168. Of this mumber, 9 were British, 2 Bremen, and the balance, 147, American. Ot the arrivals from foreign ports, 8 had free cargoes, 8 were in ballast, and $4 had cargoes subject to duty. ‘The total amount received from customs during th month was $53,742 56, against $61,293 23 during tl same period last year, The disbursements were $57,-) 280 37, ageinst $68,073 89 last year. ‘The arnexed statement exhibits the amount of bul. jon arrived cleared from ‘the port of San Fran- cisco, during each quarter from Nov, 12,1849, to Sep-| tember 30, 1850, both inclusive:— Movements or Buitton 1x San Paancroco, 1860. .April Int to June 30th 1850. .
