ADVER TERMS, eath in advance. Governor Jones has been nominated for Presi- dent in Tennessee, and for Vice President, with General Seott, in Maine.

General Sam Houston claims to have beon born either in Virginia or in Tenneesee, or in both, or in Texas, or in tho Cherokee nation. If he runs, of course Pillow must retreat; and he had better do so forthwith. If General Foote is brought forward as the Demo- oratio: Whig: Union-Compromise candidate for Vice President, with Mr. Webster as President, (which, it is said, is the “arrangement,” in some quarters,) it must by all meanabe authentically ascertained where he was born. We were never fally and cer- tainly informed whether his native State was Vir- ginia, Mississippi, Tennessee, or Texas.

John Boll may not like the preference of Jones over himself, bat ho | ig usefulin the Senate ; and George W. Jones may | think he ought to be elected instead of Pillow; but | he is too faithful a sentinel of the federal troasury | in the House to be spared. If the whigs rejoct J. C. J., the democrats ought in liberality to reject J. G. P., and vice versa. The young whigs of New York, and the Clay men, it is said, are going in for Jones, and were busy as bees, at the Astor House, groom- ing him for the race, whilst ho was thero. Tho democracy should not forget thepurso is fifty mil- lions a year for four years. Anti-Sravery MovemEnts.— While both parties are returning to their old platforms, and the grand battle isto be oace more between old fashioned whig and democratic principles for the spoils, we find the anti-slavery societies of the North moving again to renow the agitation upon tha negro question. Garrison, Phillips, and the rabid abolition nullifiors of Boston, have just closed a most terrifiy demon- stration, which is soon to be followed up by similar proceedings, at various points in the North aad West. Tho Cincinnati Anti-Slavery Soviety, of both sexes, and of all colors, have issued a call for @ grand convention ia that city, to ke holden on the 27th, 28¢h, and 29th of April next, ‘to in- quire what can be done for tho three millions of slaves in these United States;” and they declare “that whilst there is a slave to be liberated, thera shall not he wanting an abolitionist to strike the fetters from his limbs.” On the 18th and 19th of March, the Rochester Ladies’ Anti-Slavery Sowing Society, according to Fred Douglass’ paper, will hold a grand anti-slavery festival and bazaar in that city, and they have determined, at the samo time and place, to hold a grand Anti-Slavery Con- vention, ‘“‘and to cecure the presence of somo of the ablest and most eloquent advocates of eman- cipation in the country.”” This oal: is signed by | twenty ladies, all white, we suppose, and is in that | warlike spirit which shows that they are about to gird on their armor for a fight, hand to hand, and are not to be fooled with any longer. They still entertain the idea that the Southern slaves aro suffering dreadfully—that they must be emanci- pated—that ‘‘matorial, financial, and political aid” must be. collected—and that the good tim coming when all colors and all sexea shall mfiglo together on a footing of the most perfect equality. The war is thus to be renowed, and the end is yet to come. Arcusisnor Hvucues anp THE Great Waa- starF.—We perceive that Archbishop Hughos denies, through the columns ef a Wall street paper, that ever Signor Wagstaff had» right to wag his tongue with the name of his Grace in relation to the Galway lino ef steamships. The holy Archk- bishop, who ought to be a pattern of Christian love, is very exact and punctilious in exhibiting his dis- likes. Why did ho not sond us the correction in stead of confining it te a paper of limited circula- tion?’ When he wants a generous subscription for a Catholic purpose, he is not so squeamish.

She has been visited by the chiefs of three tribes—the Sioux, the Iroquois, and the Pawnees, She made ali of them valuable presents, and received likewise some tokens from them. They admitted her a member of their tribes, and decorated her with their most beautiful ornaments, They also offered to make the Countess their Queen, if she would only sccompany them to the forest—an offer which she declines for the present, though they placed on her head a crown made of the plumage of arare bird. They have called her Cat-rat tamtararara, or the great female war dancer. An Iroquois chief, of thirty years of age, and having already two or three equaws, fell desperately in love with her, and she thinks the Indian method of making love is quite superior to the mode pursued in the Quakerly city, She does not like that city much— nore is no fighting, or fun, or excitement in it. The only eptlemen rhe met there were the firemen and the Indiana. In Washington ehe will no doubt meet with great suc- | oces, Boing a great politician, she will enlighten the mem- bers cf Congress, particularly in reference to Kossuth, whom he says she knows like a book.

It is curious enough that Kossuth, who talke so much on the subject, should have overlooked this important movement. Ic seems Lola Montes is a better informed politician than the ex- Governor of Hungary. Intedligence, COMPLAINT AGAINSE A GAMELING HOUSE—LARCENY AND GAMBLING—STRANGE DEVELOPEMENTS— COUNT CURRENT OF THE LOSING GAMELER— WARRANTS ISSUED FOR THE ACCUSED PARTIES. It is o rare occurrence that complaints are instituted against a gambling house, for the very reason that ninety- nine out of every hundred of the complaining parties only seek the aid of the police to recover back their money; and &8 soon as that is obtained, away they go froma the city to parts unknown, and then, when the case is prerented before the Grand Jury, no witness appear- ing, the complaint falls to the ground. Yesterday a very peculiar case of gambling was presented before Justice Lothrop, implicating Tom Hyer, Frank Stewart, Moses Haymer, and others, keepers of a gambling house, situated at No, 3 Park place. The facts which have elicited the exposé in this matter are as follows:—Some short time since, a young man named Alexander Cornell was in the emplcy of Kimball & Johnson, No. 25 John street, and during his clerkship embezzled and stole from his em- ployers property to a large amount, the proceeds of which he has gambled away at the game of faro, at the gambling house situated at No. 3 Park place. Zhe employers of Cornell discovered that he had been robbing them, and accordingly caused his arrest and conviction before the Court of Sessions, on which con- viction the Court sentenced him te thirty days inthe city prison, Since his confinement in prison the fact of gambling has been developed, and the complaint enter- tained against the firm of Hyer, Btewart & Haymer, The following is the account current as made ou: by Cornell: — New Yonx, 1851, Acecunt of money lost, won, and received at house Xo. 3 Park place. kept as # gambling house by Haymer, Stewart & Hyer:— May 3d, lost, playing at faro, $45.

We hopeit is not like the Slievegammon fund, which has gono to “the devil's exchequer.” Tue Forrest Case in Pawrn et Forum —We have just received a pamphlet on the Forrest case, from an lawyer of this city. It makes a ter- ible overhauling of the witnesses and others con- cerned in the trial, and puts in a vigorous defence f Forrest.

Thebaud, Vice Presi. dent of St. John’s College, Fordham, delivered » lecture at the Stuyvesant Institute, for the beneiit of the Hospi tal of 8t Vincent, being one of a series given before the Catholic Institute. The subject was ‘ Pope Pius VII. and Napoleon.’ The reverend gentleman commenced at 8 c’elock, and read to an audience of about 150 persons, from his notes. a very lergthy discourse. giving a history of the principal battles and events in the life of Napo- leon, and the bistory of Pius VIL. and the Church, as far as they were connected with the career of the great war- rior, The lecturer, who isa French Jesuit, read s0 rapidl) and inarticulately, and his pronunciation of the Eaglis!

Charles Delovan, before ,the Mechanics’ In- stitute lastevening, at Clinton Hall. The lecture was illustrated by plates, showing the effects of alcohol on the human stomach. The lecturer proceeded to enforce the fact. that water is the only fluid which does not pos- sess an irritating eflect upon the buman stomach, and thet alcohol is not necessary for man—it is as averse to bis nature asit is to that of the horse or the ox. Mr. Delevan concluded in very eloquent terms, by appealing to his hearers to shun sil places where intoxicating ‘rinksare used, for, he said, there was no more certain method of dissipating wealth and ensuring poverty than intemperance They owed it to their country—to their families and friends—to abstain from intoxicating drinks, which tend only to shorten life, The meeting was well attended, amongst which there waa a large number of ladies, We havea report of the lecture, but cannot find room for it this morning.

One would think, in looking about, in seeing the activity of all classer in this city, that we were in a high state of prosperity; andthat the mort repid progress was being made ia every department of business. Such is, at all events, the appearance of thines, but according to the high teriif or gans, it is all deception—sll moonshine, Acording to | their statements, we are utterly, almost irretrievably | ruined, Nothing can save us from complete annthilation | but the immediate passage of an act raising the dutieson | our imports to almost prohibitory points. It is most ex- | traordinary that members of Congress do not see the | dangerous position of the most vital interests of tho | country, and instead of devoting their time and ener- gies to the advancement of some prominent candidate for the Presidency, and for the manufacture of political capital for personal profit, turn their attention entirely | to the cavees tending so much to our prostration, and provide on immediate remedy. If we may believe one half what the protectionists say, there is but one remedy. The pasasge of a bigh tasiff act would at once regulate and remove ajl diffioutties and establish the prosperity of the Union, in a financial avd commercial point of views | upon a solid, eubstavtial foundation, This having been pointed out, it relieves members of Congress from the ne- cessity of looking round for a pulliative, and they should, at cnce proceed to adopt it. fo say the manufacturers through their organs. They even gofurther. In their liberality apd generosity they advocate the cause of the agricultural and mercantile classes, and devote part of their political influence to the rescue of these important jnterests from the depression surrounding them, Bread- stuffs do not, eccording to the authority quoted, bring Temunerating prices ; and our splendid clipper ships are. carrying freights at ruinously low rates, Our works of internal improvement do not have half the business, un= der the present commerciel eyetem of the government» they would have under a high tariff; and uuloss we re- turn immediately to the system in operation previous to 1€46,the millions of doliars invested in the constrastion of our railroeds, plank roads, canals, &¢., will soon become unproductive, Thousands will, ofcourse, be ruined if such ® result should be realised. It is not strange that those who look upon things in this light should be alarmed at the apathy of Congress, and have the most fearful fore. bodings relative to the future existence of the country. But it is strange that eapitalists continue to employ their means in such a precarious business as manufac- turing cotton, wool, or iron, instead of withdrawing at once, turning their property into gold, depositing it in some safe place, putting their hands in their pockets, and patiently waiting for the country to break. They can then afford to let it break, for they would then have the right kind of stuff to buy up the pleces at a great de» preciation Seriously speaking, the statements put forth by the organs of certain manufacturing interests, are sim. ply absurd. They are hardly worth noticing. The manu. facturers of the East suppose that the first duty of Gon, gress isto protect them against encroachment from any foreign competitor; that everything else should give way to insure their prosperity; and that it must follow as a certainty if they are in a prosperous condition al! other interests must be. This igncrance—to give ths most favorable construction to the cause—would hardiy be expected from sucha source. Fortunately, they d,, not succeed in making Congress believe their statements, and there is not the most remote possibilty of any of their objects being aceomplished. We can, therefore listen to their complaints, and read their ridiculous and mournful statements with perfect indifference. They bbe decidedly behind the age, and are likely to remain ere. It is well known to every person who continues posts’ up, that the country at large, from Maine to T»xas, from the Atlantic tothe Pacific, never was in @ more pros- Perous condition, Even the great iron and coal iuterests, about which so much sympathy has been expressed, are in a thriving, progressing condition. It ie true that many furnaces have been blown out, many collieries closed. many manufacturing establishments turned to other purpoces ; butall this shows nothing; it does not even show that these were not profitable when in operation. Those who are engaged in manufacturing know that competition from those surrounding them, is one of the must difficult, dangerous things to contend with, and it is this home competition which leads to extravagant ex. penditure cf capital, for the purpose of crushing at once all oppotition that loads to insolvency and ruin. Within the past twelve months several large mills have been erected in New England, for the manufacture of mous* telin de laines, An immenee amount of sapital has been expended for buildings and machinery, and the quantity put upon the market another year will be immense, Aly this looks well, end it would appear es though manufie- turing establishments, constructed and put into opera- ticn under a low tariff, would be likely to continue upon | astrong basis; but all such expectations will not be realized. It is our opinion that, in lees than three years a majority of (hese companies will suspend. be attributed entirely to the absence of a hi when, im fact, it will be from excessive competition, from an excess of supply over the demand for consumption, to ruch an extent as to depreciate prices below remune- rating points. Meeults similar to this have been realized in the coal trade, and will be ri ned agsin, tariff or no | teriff. Withall this, the ma Lever were in amore prosperous, ratisfactory condition.” With full employ- | ment, and good wages, they are large contur: | the neceeruries, and most of the luxuries of 1i | would ke well for Con, to letthem alone. | monofacturers here and there are continually boring | Covgress with petitions for an increase of duties on this | iole, and it probably will always be 0, What is worth having is certainly worth asking for | and we shall doubtlers have petitions of this kind every session of Congress, Fortunately ether matters oscupy | the atiention of most cf our legislators at Washington and these who can be prevailed upow to advovate the protectionist’s cause make little progress towards the ob» ject they have in view.
