Telegra) Summary. (Our intelligence from Washington, received by Pelegraph, last night, is of a highly interesting @baracter. 1: appears that Mr. Webster will not weturn to the seat of government to resume the | weins of the State Department; but to deliver fhem over into the hands of the President, with the | weasseubling ef Congress. This is conclusive of | the position of Mr. Webster before the cougtry. He is in the field—confessedly in the field—fr the ampaign of 52. He is up—avowodly up—for the momination of the Whig National Convention, provide! they cen so harmonize as to drum up a National Convention. Atall events, the friends of Mr. Webster are acting judiciously, in advising | him to this movement. ‘The proceedings in behalf ef Generel Scott, in several of the neighboring | States, justify it; and strict justice to the high @aims of Mr. Webster upon the whig party, and ‘wpon the friends of the Union and of the constitu- tion, of all parties, demand that he shall not longer | be held in the back ground. The movement is good —it may benefit the whigs of New York at their Sep- } tember convention; at least, we hope it will impart to the constitutional branch of the party reaewed sourage and resolution. We are perfectly aware of the fact that certain cliques are busy in propagating the idea that Mr. Welster is unpopular; that past @ireumstances are too strongly against him for aay prospect of his success; but we trust his friends ; will disregard this trick of the enemy, and all other hostile devices, and stand firm for Webster, the eenstitution, the compromises, the 'nion, and the mationality of the whig party. Their patriotism may then be vindicated, and Mr. Webster may se eure the approaching judgment of the country. | Stranger things have hoppened within the last | ‘twenty years. | Our intelligence, via Bos‘on, from the Cape of Good Hope, shows the existence of a wide-spread @enspiracy against the British authority in South Africa. The conclusion will doubtless be, after an , expensive and exterminating war, the annexation of another empire to her Majesty’s domini by way of “ indemnity for the past, and security for the fu- ture.” With such examples as the Sikh and Caffre ‘wars before us, how supremely hypocritical the Gndignation of John Bull appears, at the an- | mexation of Texas and other territories to the United states. For th: particulars upon this extending war, and ako for various other items relating to the Michi- gan railroad conspirators, the forthooming Boston Failroad jubilee, the late elections, and ether scraps @f intelligence from various quarters, we refer our Yeaders to our telegraphic column. It is seldom , that it embraces such a variety ¢f importa: d in- teresting matter, in this dull interregnum of the dog days.

During the same Congress, Mr. Marshall, in conjunction with Mr. Lewis C. Levin, set up a very }rosperous tee-total society ia Wash- ington, and kept the community, by their eloquence, in a furor of cold water for a whole wicter. The | whig troubles with Jobn ‘Tyler, in the next place, and their passage of the Bankrupt law, aod va- rious other things, especially an old family dis- pute with the Clays—Capulet and Montague—had | so disgusted Mr. Marshall with the whigs, that in the campaign of 1sif he took the stump in Ken- | tucky for Colonel Polk, and only failed in carrying the State from a deficiency of votes. From that time to the present, Mr. Marshall has confined himself pretty much to the shades of private life; until now we find him turning up, after bis elec- | | tion, a whig again, in full whig uniform. Curious bit of history, that. In Indiana, we find Mr. McGaughey defeated, in a strong whig district. He was one of the foar Northern whigs in the Ilouse who voted for the Fugitive Slave law; and his decided defeat might be regarded as something remarkable, were it not that the democrats and the free soil whigs were too His course on the Mexican war bill had embittered the opposition, but it ploased the free soilers, and he was approved and re-ele sted. In voting, however, for the Pegitive Slave law, he | failed to conciliate his enemies, and lost the free soilers. His patriotism was miscalculation, and came too late. Better luck, perhaps, next time. We are all the creatures of cireumstances. In North Carolina, and in Tennessee, the compromises appear to have stood the test | most admirably. The re-election of Mr. Stanley, | in North Caroliag, to Congress, is clearly a com- premise victory in a doubtful district; for Stanley was the most positive and earnest of all Southern men in the House in behalf ef the adjustment. In Alabama, the results, though favorable to the Union party, are not altogether satisfactory as evi- The defeat of principal fight between the two parties appours to have been mate, is prevailing satisfaction wich the compromises. In- deed, the results in Kentucky, North Carolina, and ‘Tennessee, as well as in Alabama, are suffisiently tinged with evidences of disaffection to the slavery adjustment, andthe Union. They distinctly betray an existing irritation all over the Soath, more especially in the cotton Sates, which is not to be | trifled with, and which will not sabmit to such plat- forms as that of the whigs of Pennsylvania, as that of the whigs of Obio, nor even as that of the Albany whig protocel. It would be well, before it is too late in the day—it would be well, before,a great sec- tional party is established in the North, if our blind and reckless political demagogues, leading off in the work, would ponder upoa the late elections, and look to the consequences of their headlong stupidity. Will the silver grays bo firm, andsound as salt, at Syracuse? They mus¢either stand their ground or surrender. We shall wait the result with painful anxiety. Tue Tenvanterrc Treaty.—Some of the New | Orleans papers have commented on editorial articles that have appeared in our columns in relation to | Tehuantepec, and, with a degree of illiberality that justifics a strong suspicion that something disqualifies them from judging correctly. They have imputed to the Herald, and others of the press of this city, that they have yielded to the influence of the PacificSteam- ship Company, or the Nicaragua Company, or some other company that is rival, and therefore hostile, to Tehuantepec. We are sorry that aay decent press should commit so gross an absurdity, and in- We have again inter-oceanic routes alluded to; but we are in favor of them all, on proper principles. We are opposed to any one of them being favored by the govern | mont, if it isa mere speculation, or an unwise and | an unjust monopoly. Asto Tehuantepec, we have repeatedly admitted that it was the most eligible route to California and Oregon for the Gulf States | canal and the lower Mississippi States; and ifa is rida at its head, it is even preferable, so far as res- pects our Pacific possessions, to the Atlaatic States We have expreseed the opinion, also, thatat pre sent, Panama was the best route to California and Oregon for the Atlantic States, and with reference | to the China trade and the trade to the west coast of South America for all the States. We have ad- itted the advantages of the Nicaragua route. We have advocated the encouragement of the Atrato route also on proper principles, but pot as @ private speculation. It so happens that the Pacific Steam Company, the Panama Company, the Nicarsgua Law’s company, all aveuce the HMertia* of bor tility to the respective routes each one of them is desirous of advancing. For all this, we do | not care one fig As to the opinions we have oxprcrred of certain apprebended diffleulties in relation to the construction of the canal or railroad at Tebuantepee, and its permanent safety, we have seen no reason to change the opinioa or the im- preesion that similar difficulties exist aa to Ni- earagua. Faith, it is ead, can remove moun- tains; but it isnot written that it can stop carth- qvakes. We should like to be satisfied that they bave not rred in part times on these routes, as has m narrated by histovians and tourists.

Worx to re Dons —Lurortanr Discovery.— The Altany Journal announces the fact that there ig a good deal of work to be done before the whig party of New York can be efliciently organized. This is an important discovery. But how the party is to be organized at al!, defies ‘conjosture. The ‘Webster men threaten to stick to Mr. Webster and the Fugitive Slave law, tothe last gasp; the Seward Scott faction have sworn upon the Holy Evangely, orthe next thing to it, that they will head the great expounder ‘‘head him or«dic,” as Botts resolved to do with Tyler. lt is just es likely as any- thing e! r gra will cave in; and | that in nvass, We shel! find them and the free sc ors, like Ty'cr and Botts, cosily snooz- ing together under the same blanket, without a why or wherefore. But toeffect even this arrange- ment, there is work to be done. We shall have some eport when they come to fece the music.

There have been large detiuqaencies on the part of tho bulls, which the bears have . rranged by compromise, and made the bert of them. The depreciation in prices within the past foxr weeks has been very great, amd the dif- ferences bave been paid up much better than we ex peeted, The bulls generally do not meet their epgage- ments Fo promptly as the bears, whea the current is set- ting against them, and the profits of operators for @ fal) are therefore Jess than they would otherwise be, Im consequence of this want of principle in bull speculators. the bears frequently purchase their stocks and make | their deliveries during a falling market, before the matu- rity of their contracts, so as to secure what margin they kave, rather than wait fora larger profit, and run the risk of losing all.
