Several bills, appropriating money for institu- tions in this city and elsewhere, passed the State Senate yesterday, but no other business of special interest was transacted.

The first State nomination for the Presidenry, in anticipation of the contest of 1852, masmade‘on Wednesday, by the democrats of New Hampshire, assembled at Conoord. Judge Woodbury has been jeet to the con- currence of the National Conventien, to be held at Baltimore next summer. ‘This is the first distinct and positive State nomi- nation that has yet been made in the Union. There have been numerous newspaper nominations by both parties, and also county nomination: a!l over the Union—but no State nomination tillnow. Isaae P. at a smal! meeting at Tammany Hall, composed of General 3 sott has been nominated by whig county meetings in various parts of Pennsylvania, and also in some Western States. Gereral llouston has been mea) ioned, in connection with the office, at some meetings, and by several democratic newspapers. An attempt was made at the Democratic State Convention held recently at Reading, in Pennsylvania, to nominate Mr. | Buchanan; but the delegates forbore doing so, although it was well understood that a majority of them were in favor of him as their candidate. At the Whig State Convention, which will be held at | Lancaster in the same S:ate, on the twenty-fourth of this month, it is expected that Gen. Scott or Mr. Webster will be nominated as the choive of the whigs of Pennsylvania for the Presidency. The nomination of Judge Woodbury ix, however, the first that hus been made by any State Convention | up to this time. Now, who is Judge Woedbury? Judge Wood | bury, of New Uamp-hire, is an eminent judge and | statesman of many years’ standing. He is at pre. sent a jndge onthe bench of the Supreme Court of the United States; but has been, heretofore, under Jackson’s administration, Secretary of the Treasury and Secretary of the Navy, as well as a Senator in Congress. On all occasions, and in every office which he has held, he has displayed considerable talent. The platform put forward by the democratic State Convention of New Hamp- tionable as far as the great question of the day is | concerned ; it is tue only platform in that respect, on which any jarty can stand, with any hope of be- ing united throughout the country, on any candi- date or on any principles. ‘The whig party of New Hampshire, it is well known, are opposed to the | compromise measures of the last Congress, and es- | England States the same party are ia the same isolated position, as regards the whigs of the Southern States.

Exrraonprnary =Porics Disctosunes—Tne the world. Our reporter.also furnishes a list of the burglars, bank robbers, hotel thieves, counter- feiters, and other rascals, more or less associated with this terrible stool pigeon gang, who have been rioting in this community for some years past. They are now mostly disposed of. Warner and Wilkes—the one the lawyer, and the other the them are dead, and the rest are in the State prison, or soon will be. The rise, progress, and termination of the famous stool-pigeon coterie, whose organ was the Police Ga- zete, is one of the most curious events in the crimi. nal history of this metropolis, and the surrounding country. In fermer years, individual police officers and speeial adventurers, endeavored to practice in the same line of business. Every one remembery the career, and its close, of the famous stool-pigeon justice, Bill Wiley, who was a sort of George Wilkes of his day, with a emall gang at his tail of very good 8,ool pigeons. We could name others who are still floating about in the community, who were engaged in the same business several years ago, but as they have reformed, and set up for men of respectability, it is as well, perhaps, to let them cut andrun. The Wilkes and Warner stool-pigeon gang, was the greatest organization of the kind ever attempted in this country. They not only en- gaged in criminal matters, but aspired to manage elections, to regulate Tammany Hall, and to control nominations for some of the chief crimi- nal offices in this city. The whole confederacy is now broken up, scattered to the four winds of heaven, and for this happy result, the community is much indebted to the firmness of the Chief of Mr. Weesrer axp THE ANCI-SLAVERY Fac- TIONS. —The organs of the anti-slavery factions of the North are, and have been for some time past, assailing not only the publis, but the private cha- racter of Mr. Webster, Secretary of State, in a very coarse, vulgar and discreditable manner. A short time since, the Zvcbune, on the Seward cide, abused him for his tergiversacions, as they imagined, in reference to the slavery question, and his treach- ery to the North, as that famous journal thought proper to term Mr. Webster's course in sustaining the constitution; andthe Evening Post, of the Van Buren faction, brings up the old stories of subscrip- tions having been made for his benefit on sundry All this is done by these anti-slavery organs, be- | cause Mr. Webster took the bold, manly and patri- otie course which he did on the seventh of March, 1850, in opposition to the tide of fanaticism which threatened to deluge the Northern States gene- rally, and to swamp both the Union and the consti- , tution. Now, we hare never been a great eulogist of Mr. | Webster, but have on all occasions dene him as | much justice as it has been our aim to mete to other public men. We approved of his course when we thought approval due, and opposed it when we thought he was wrong. The position he has taken on the question of slavery meets not only our ap- probation, but that of a majority of the sensible people of the whole North. Of this there can be no doubt, and hence the assaults that ar> daily made upon his private and public character, by some of his old friends and enemies, who comprise | the anti-slavery factions of the two old parties. ‘The public and private character of Mr. Web- | ster, like that of all other men, may be marked more or lees by the weakness and infirmity of hu- man nature, but no one can deny that he has exbi_ bited an intellectual vigor and a moral courage in public affairs, that deserve, as they meet with, the approbation of the whole country. That Mr. Webd- ter meets with the virulence of the anti-slavery factions of the North, is not to be wondered at. | Some of the journals, indeed the most of them who thus attack Mr. Webster, are great sticklers for respectability in newspaper discussion, and for dig- nity and propriety in newspaper controversies. La the attacks we have referred to, by the 7'ribune and Evening Post, and other journals, thers is no- thing in the whole history of the newspaper press, that we have heard of or seen, which exceeds the meanness, the virulence, the vindictivene+s, fully, and xpgentlemanly allusions and personal atta: in their columns i ference to that dis. ‘Th aleo to certain officers and judges of the courts, who are all known to every one conversant with the criminal history of the times. CALIFORNIA aND ITS Fruenps—Hoxor to Wiiom Hoyor 1s Dve.—We have recently seen that a number of politicians, some of whom (not all) spend their rowdy winters at Washington, have been presented with golden tokens of esteem from California, for their presumed services in behalf of that growing and already flourish- ing State on the Pacific. Watches, wateh chains, breastpins, rings, and big lumps, have been forwarded to these politicians from the citi- # San Francisco, and other places in Cali- For instance, Mr. Senator Douglas re- ceived a massive gold watch, and Mr. Senator Cass a heavy goldring. Mr. Clay and General Houston, also, have had watch chains of California gold. ‘These articles were very clegant, and inscriptions were on some of them, which, in the easy phrase- ology of the day, have been called “appropriate.” So tar as appropriation is concerned, they were; but nofurther. In fact, the recipients of such unde- served bounty ought to bave given them to the poor. ‘The generous remembrance of good deeds is a very beautiful trait in the character of the Califor- niaus, who seem willing t» remember with pleasure thuse who have contributed to build up that great home of industry and mine of wealth on the Pacitic.

Under the [omits it is wonderful that the acsomplished reporter performed the service as well as he did, but | a mistake occurred of some importance, which he correeted as soon es it mes his eye. Towards the | end of the speech, [ am repreeepted az having said, “Gentlemen, ! regret exceedingly that tlavery ex- that Congress has no pares over it.” This is o entirely in opposition to the whole drift of my remarks, that it might have | been hoped that all would have regarded it as a misprint or an error. It appears, however, that this was not universally the case; and therefure the | reporter very aor pily sensed the following correc- tion to be inserted in the Herald, the paper in which | the report first appeared :—* Gentlemen, I regret in the Southern States; but Congress has no power to act upon it. It may be, however, that in the dispensation of Pro- vidence, some remedy for this evi) may occur, or may be hoped for hereafter.” It must be obvious to every intelligent perso: that if Congress possessed power over slavery as exists in the Southern States, any attempt to exer- | cise such power would break up the Union, just as | surely as would an attempt to introduce slavery into Massachusetts. These are subjects of mere State right, and State authority, intended orig nally to be left entirely with the States, and they ae so be left still, if we wish to preserve the nion.

During the { whole of the time that Mr. Webster was delivering it the rain poured in torrents, so much 80, that not- withstandiug every effort to prevent it, his notes were saturated, and other reporters were forced to remarks. In addition to this, the speech was trans- mitted to us by telegraph, and re-written once or twice. Under all the circumstanees, its accuracy was extraordinary. City Intelligence.

The philosophy of language, or its relation to the necessary movements of the humwaa mind. must. of c-urse, be much the same whatever may be its particular form. This branch of en- quiry is called general grammar, and has a close relation to logic, or the laws of thought. It is conversant with those matters which all languages have in common, avd may be pursued independently of those special forms whick make distinct and individual languages, The rulss which form the grammar of any particular language, ro far as they ditler from apy 1 are owing to aceidental circumstances, the investigation of which belongs to the history. rether than to the science of language. tal grammar, on the contrary. disregarding that which is peculiar to the speech of this or that individual tribe, pation, or race, considers only what is common to man, in wll ‘ages and countries, both in the arrangement of thoughts, with a view to their expression, and also to the bodily organs and physical acts necessary fur this pur- pose.
