DOUBLE SHEET. New York, Thursday, March £5, 1852. ‘The News. Our Washington despatch contams a rumor of a rerious rupture between President Fillmore and See- retary Corwin. Indeed, it is intimated that the latter has beon politely requested to resign. Whe- ther this is true or false, of course we are unable to say; but one thing is quite certain—recent develope- ments have shown that Mr. Fillmore has not been on the best of terms with some of the members of his cabinet, for many montks. The probability, therefore, is, that’ the report ic correct. In the United States Senate yesterday, a motion was made to refer to the proper committee two pe- titions from Louisiana and Maine, in favor of the Collins steamers, when Mr-Gwin arose, and observed that the reference was unnecessary, as the commit- tee were prepared to report. Resolutions were adopted calling for information respecting the ma- terials to be used in the extension of the Capitol, and for the correspondence and papers growing out of the anisunderstanding between Com. Jones and Lieut. Meade, and for the proceedings in the Court Martial of the officers of the propeller Edith. The full particulars respecting this naval difficulty, will doubtless be very juteresting, and bring to light sume very curious transactions, of which the public generally are not aware, Mr. Hale announced that he sould take an early opportunity of calling up Gov. Foote’s compromise resolution. This unfortx- nate le of the ex-Senator is like the bequest. of a scroful man te his children—it will break eut occasionally, and set the whole body in a ferment. A resolution was yesterday offered in the House of Ropreeentatives asking what amount ofmoney had becn expended upon each soldier during the trans- por 1 of the army to, and since its location in, New Mexico. ‘The resolution was very properly laid over, upon the principle that it is better to get through with one thing at a time. Notwithstand- ing the numcrous charges of wanton extravagance against government officers, many of which are pro- bably correct, it is necessary that the deficiency ap- propriation bill should be passed, in order that our Dat credit may not be further impaired. It ie understood that.overnment drafts have already been protested; and for the sake of the country, no more such reports should besetafloat. Afverthe passage of the deiliciency bill, it will be just and proper to over- hau! and straighten up the accounts of the officers in Now Mexico,.ond if one-tenth of the allegations of corruption and reckless mismanagement prove true, all concerned should be heid to a strict account- ability. Of late years, there has been an immense deal of official rarcality of all kinds, and it is high time that some plan was devised to prevent the people's trenenry from being robbed with impunity. li is a waste of time to talk about the peculations aud abuses of government officers. The only remedy is to enact luws that will effectually secure an honest performance of duty. A long and uninteresting de- bate took place on the deficiency bill; and notice wes given of.a bill to make several reductions and alterations in the tariff. By refe ceedings, it will be seen that a communication was yesterday lain, charging Attorney General Chatfield with having made affidavit to a falsehood during his examination by the canal letting investigating committee. Thir is a very serious allegation, and nises to add to the excitement respecting the inary contracts. On the opening of the al were symptoms of another political | Senate thei » to the report of the legislative pro- | ent to the Senate, from Mr. Chamber- | The bark Sunbeam ran ashoro on the night of the 5th inst,, near Assateague Light, and at last ac- counts was going to pieces. Capt. Lincoln and his wife and child, were washed overboard and drowned, but the remainder of those on board were rescued. Several other accounts\of marine disasters will be found in the telegraphic’columns. We have also an account of the loss of the schooner Henry Curtis, off No Man’s Land, andl the drowning ef Capt. An- thony and his cook. Our miscellaneeus telegraphic intelligence this morning, is unusually diversified and interesting. An insane wontan hung herself in hiladelphia, on Tuesday night. A lawyer accidentally shot and killed a friend, while gunaing, on Tuesday. Two men had ‘@ dispute in the city of Memphis, Tenn., the other day; ene shot his adversary, and the latter died on Sunfay. A passenger named Erhart, was killed by the breaking of an axletree, on the Charleston and Hamburg railroad, on Tues- day morning. Several other persons were much injured, and two of tire cars were smashed to pieces. Destructive fires oomrred in Boston and Pittsburg on Tuesday. Manyof the inhabitants of the Jatter city are greatly excited concerning the Maine Liquor law. The report of the proceedings of the Industrial Congress on the Maine law, which we publish to- day, will be found a very funny affair. These savans and philosoyhers are famous for provoking the laughter of all men who are possessed morely of common sense. Fourteen days have now been consumed in the trial of the alleged Cuban invaders. The District Attorney yesterday announced that he would pro- bably be able to finish the examination of witnesses recent proceedings in the case is given in another part of to-day’s paper. The Organ of the Holy Alliance and the Mi- nority Report on the Maine Liquor Law. The fanatics who are in favor of the Maine Liquor law are very rapidly losing their senses, and ex- hibiting a species of intoxication equalling, if not | exceeding, that produced by King Alcohol himeelf. The leading organ of this new ism is perfectly crazy. ‘In some remarks, purporting to be a comment upon the minority report in the Assembly upon the sub- ject of the proposed law, it indulges in a strain that beats by long odds the vernacular of the Five Points, and is almost equal to the vernacular of Congress during aregular “set to.” Here are a few of the phrases used in this very temperate organ of temperance :—‘‘ Of the lowest and vilest character”’— ‘‘vestibules of brothels and gaming houses” —‘“ most, infernal depravity’’-—“ drugged and extra-poisonous liquor”’—‘ most shameless and degraded harlots and barefaced swindlers”--‘‘debauched and plun- dered”’--“ horrible baseness”—‘‘ rum-corrupted and destroyed”—“ ruin of his fellow creatures”—‘‘ rum has many shrines erected for its heathen worship”— “liquor or slavery or conquest”—‘ more mindfal of their own lusts than of God’s glory”—*“ ten thou- sand Bibles”--‘rascality so barefaced’”-—‘‘a hog is property”’--‘‘ ditto of gunpowder”——‘ Rose’s flock of smutty sheep” —‘‘ cutting off the tail just behind the cars. Such are specimens of the delectable, sweet scented flowers that bloom in the columns ef the chief organ of the Holy Alliance, which is now lead- ing the country into a new species of fanaticism. They are philosophical, temperate, tectotal epithets, cclipsing the elassic, chaste language of the most eloquent termagants of the Five Points, and even the polished periods of the orators of the Industrial Congress—they are only surpassed by the unap- proachable elegance of the brilliant displays in the halls of Congress. All these epithets, which we have culled from among many more of the same choice description, are applied to the members of the Assembly, the minority report of the committee, the committee themselves, to their constituents, and to all who deal in the liquor business. The Tribune found it more easy to lampoon the gen- tlemen who drew up and presented the minority re- port, than to answer its reasoning, which bravely takes the bull by the horns. The majority report is completely demolished by it, and hence the towering rage, and the beautiful and sub- lime Billingsgate of our amiable contemporary. Let us take a glance at some of the facts and figures and arguments which have produced such an over- flow of the bile of the white-livered organ of cold water. In the first place, the minority report shows that the very title of the bill reported by the majority is deceptive. It is ‘ an act entitled an act to prevent pauperism and crime, by the suppression of drinking and tippling houses.” This title assumes that spi- rituous liquor is the sole parent of pauperism and crime, which is contrary to reason and experience. A regard for the morals, prosperity and wealth of the Si is the pretext that has been employed in | every age to cover the designs of tyranny and aticism. Sumptuary laws were enacted in re- mote times and countries—Rome, England, France, | and Sweden—and all without effect. They were enacted in the early settlement of Massachusetts and Connecticut, and even in the State of New York. ‘These laws were either formally repealed or became ally adead letter. Chancellor Kent, in his condemns all such laws in the follow- quence of the absence of the Presi- , Lieutenant Governor Church. The dispute, vever, was subdued by the timely entrance of Mr. Morgan, who had been nominated for temporary chairman by the whigs, in opposition to Mr. Me- Murray. Mr. Morgan withdrew his name, and stated that ho should vote for Mr. McMurray, and ‘friends would do likewi These yurtesy greatly tend to pi ed that all of ng the more belligerent and ultra partizans, always ready and apparently anxious fern | | yesterday called the attention of the | nthe Tribune relative te j rve har- Rose mbly to temperance and a gambling house in the Fourth | he 1 fal appears to be losing caste | y, half the mem- the Senate turned their backs | ward, which pronou “‘moral coter ry with our legislators.

The most atrocious crimes, in #, have heen committed by men who seldom never the vice of drunkenness.

France and tlungary, where wine constitutes the ordinary beverage of the people, drunkenness is leas common than in ogland or America. The diffu- sion of education, and moral suasion, are the great and oniy enccessful means of combatting intem- perance. In confirmation of this truth, we have the fuct, that while in 1840 the quantity of whiskey State amounted to 11,973,815 gal- lons, it appears by the census to have been reduced 109,231,700 gallons in the year 1850—~heing a disi- distilled in thie gentlemet, are engaged by the contestants, ft is | agaititt these self-righteous Pharieses. It shows quite probable that the trial will occupy the atten- | that the prophot Jeremiah, under the inspiration of tion of the court fora long time. Ga, commanded the poople to ‘ buy meat, wine, or strong drink, or anything their souls desired, that they might make merry with their friends.” And ‘when the Israclites were delivered out of bondage, God promised that ‘‘ their vats should overflow with new wine.” Wine was the common beverage of tho Jews and early Christians, and the assertion that it ‘was not intoxicating is refuted by the fact that it produced drunkenness and that the excess was de- nounced, but not the moderate use. Thelogical writers inform us that wine is used in the eucharist because of its renovating, cheering and sustaining qualities, and Christ himself was in the habit of drinking wine, and was called a “‘wine-bibber” by the Pharisees of that day. His turning of the water into wine, (and capital wine, too) for the use of the guests at the marriage feast at Cana, of Galilee, when the supply of the exhilarating beverage fell short, is in the recollection of every reader of the New Testament. But Greeley, and the illustrious individuals of the Holy Alliance, claim, it seems, to be better and holier than the Son of God. But, say the fanatics, there is no utility or bene- fit from the use of liquor, and therefore why not legislate against it? The costly mansions, the ele- gant furniture of our citizens, the works of art, the silks of India, and the diamonds of Brazil---the theatre, the opera house, and the ball room—are all ‘unnecessary, and, according to this argument, ought to be demolished, and banished by legislation. Nearly 300,000,000 pounds of tobacco are annually ABOLITION NuLLIvicaTion.—ExPexses or Exe- curine THE Fverrive Stave Law In Massacv- serts.—We learn that the expenses incurred by the government, in arresting, holding, trying, and restoring the fugitive slave Simms to his master in Georgia, exce: ded five thousand dollars, to wit:— For Add owner's expenses in same case....., And we have a total of............0006 —as the actual expenses incurred in the recovery of acsingle slave, ag @he law-abiding commonwealth of Massachusetts. And the case is the morediscourag- ing from the fact that all the influence of the ad- ministration, all the influence of the friends of Mr. Webster, in Boston, a'l the strength of the mer- chants, and all the power of the government, were combined to make out a good case for Mr. Webster and Mr. Fillmore in the South. It was made tho test question between all the weight of the govern- ment, of law, and of policy, on one side, and of the abolitionists on the other. Very flattering to the South, and particularly flattering to Mr. Webster! in reserve, Mr. Webster has the gratification of see- ing the law—a solemn compact—enforeed in Massa- chusetts, after an expenditure of $8,400, against the resistance of the abolitionists. Beautiful! But it is not every owner that can incur, like Mr. Potter, raised in the United States. There is no utility in this article; and is it to be prohibited by law? Inreply to the assertion of the majority report, that the consumption of spirituous liquors adds nothing to the general prosperity, the minority refer to the fact that foreign wines and spirits, to the value for the prosecution to-day. A lengthy report of the | of $25,000,000, have been imported into the United | National Convention, will dodge the Fugitive Slave States from June, 1843, to June, 1851; of which nearly two-thirds were received in the port of New York. The commercial and shipping interest is, therefore, seriously involved in this question. The revenue and the right of Congress alone to ‘‘ regu- late trade and commerce,” are also involved. How far tho agricultural interest of this State would be affected, the following important extract from the minority report will show:— ‘We beg to present some brief but conclusive statistics which we havo obtained by official transcript from the last census of this State, not yet published, in the census office at Washington. From this authentic source of evidence, it appears that the amount of grains produced and used in the State of New York for brewing and dis- tilling. fer the year ending June Ist, 1850, is as follows : arley.. ASR -2:062.250 bushels, Rye ‘909.087 do Cate. ~6,707 do Corn. 7,266 do Total amount........+.+-4,625,200 —Haking s total of four millions, six hundred and twen- ty-five thousand, two hundred and ninety bushe!s of these four kinds of grain, which, but for this demand, would be thrown upon the hands of the farmer. The 2,062,250 bushels of barley thus thrown into disuse constitutes a large portion of the whole barley crop of the State—thus showing that very little of this grain is used:for any other purpore in this State than the manufacture of the bevo- Tages which the bill now before the Assembly proposes to of the value of the prohibit, If we make am ostimate respective amounta of theeg four kinds of grain produced and ured in this State for this purpose, according to thelr present average value per bushel, in the New York Price Current we have for the (062.250 bushels at 76 eents 1,567,810 75 do 681,800 40 do 2.682 65 do 1,070,722 Total value of grain. $3,322,514 ‘To this amount other agricultural products must be added. It appears by the census of 1850, that portion of the hop crop of this State employed in the manufacture of ale, amounts to 581 tons, or 1,311,440 pounds, which, at 20 cents per pound, is $203,432. From tho same authen- tic source it seems that 24.500 hogsheads of molasses are annually consumed for purposes of distillation. Tho value of 3,062,500 gallons of molasses at 22 cents, the sup- posed average price, would amount to $673,750; adding, therefore, these sums, we have an aggregate of four mil- lions three hundred and eighty-nine thousand six hun- dred and ninety-six dollars, being the amount to which extent agriculture would be annually affected ; deducting the molasses, the products of the State used for such purposes amount to three millions seven hundred and fifteen thousand nine hundred and forty-six dollars, In the barley crop of the State thus principally appro- priated to brewing, and for which there is no probability ofa demand for any other mode of consumption. almost every county in the State is interested, there being but three counties in which it is not produced, The thirteen counties, Albany, Cayuga, Genesee, Herkimer, Jefferson, Livingston. Madison, Montgomery, Onondaga, Ontario, Otsego. Schenectady, and Schoharie, annually produce 1,874,447 bushels, worth one million four hundred and forty four thousand five hundred and seventy-nine dol- lars, independently of the value of their rye and hops used in the process of brewing and distillation. ‘The whole barley crop of the State of Maine is much les than that of our single county of Onondaga ; indeed, the united value of the barley and rye cousumed in this State for those purposes exclusively, amounts to conside- rable more than one-half of the united value of the whole crop of these two descriptions of grain raised throughout the Stato, But there are various interests besides these affect- ed. The coopers and other mechanics would be seri- ously injured. Independent of thechargesforfreight, ontvansmitting by railroad and canal, grain, molasses, foreign and domestic wines and liquors, the mere items of manual labor cartage amount to several hundred thousand dollars. In the variouscities and counties of the State upwards of $10,000,000 is per- manently invested in distilleries and breweries, giv- ing employment to thousands. the buildings and apparatus, the passage of this law would involve a sacrifice of $7,000,000. The amount of investmentsin hotels, taverns and groceries, in- cluding stocks of wines, ales and liquors, may be sufely calculated at $50,000,000—the largest por- tion of which is invested in the city of New York. This property would be reduced 50 per cent at one fell swoop. Such is a summary of the principal facts, argu- ments, and statistics produced in this able document; and it isno wonder that the organ of the Holy Alli- ance should feel the intoxicating effects on its brain, and ree], and foam, and curse, and revile worse than the most degraded drunkard found ® the lowest haunts and us of vice. But overwhelim- ing as ie this report, there is one point which it has overlooked-—it is the infernal stool pi- geon system which such a Jaw would entail upon the country. In a case recently brought be- fore Judge Fitch, at Portland, against a citizen, for violating the statute, it came out on the trial that the author of the law, Neal*Dow, the fanatic Mayor of Portland, emplo; as a stool pigeon to co da common informer viet him, and that the wretch received twenty dollars as the reward of h infamy. This Neal Dow is the ‘honorabl whom was lately presented a gold medal in this city, by the hands of the hero of San Jacinto. If the Maine law should be adopted in this State, what a crop of ®, informers, stool pigeons, and double dyed villains will spring up like rank weeds, under the patronage of the lenders of the Holy Alliance, to swear away, for hire, the property, the liberty, and the character of the citizens of New York! Tne Rervrxep Friursvsrens.—The Cuban _filli- busters, who recently returned from prison in Spain, clemency of Queen Isabella, have been making a little fuss round town, during the last few days, in some very curious modes. They seem to be very much astonished that the Corporation and the public have not received them with as great a burst of enthusiasm as they received the Hungarians ; and they have, in consequence, been particularly se- vere, in some bulletins, on some members of the Cor- poration, who refused to vote in favor of the resolu- tion for their relief. We must beg to tell these gentlomen fillibusters that this is all in badtaste. They may talk as much as they please of freedom, and patriotism, and of des- potism in Cuba, and the glorious batties they fought there, but they should remember they were engaged ina lawles# expedition; and they should, on ar- riving bere, have adopted a demeanor a little more modest, and in keeping with their position and cha- macter. Some of the same persons engaged in get- ting np that enterprise are now on trial in this city, population has increased over 27 per cent inthe same period. But the violence and coercion attempted by the fanatics are very likely to produce a reaction.

Gil Podrida, the cupboard-courting steward of the con- vent, was very happily reprerented by Mr. Leach, and Lord Pumicestone by Mr. Andrews. On the whole, the presentation of “The Black Domiuo” was very succoss- ul last night, and may attract for a few nights longer, in the abrence of the Italian trewpes.

On a comparison with the Phenix Company, the chasge of monopoly against the Cumberland will scareely hold good ; the former having 22,000 acres of the best mineral property, while the latter will fall short of 12,000. And again, when we take into consideration the immense out- lay which the Frostburg miners have had to encounter in the construction of canals and railroads, and in the purchase of their lands, at comparatively high prices, the capital of $5,000,000 contemplated to be raised for the Cumberland, is not, all things taken into consideration, of greater relative magnitude than that of the Phenix Company, of $2,000,000. The pioneers of the Frostburg Cumberland region have had every difficulty to contend with; labor, capital, and supplies had to be introduced originally by them, while the Phenix, the pioneer on the Potomac, whose property lies in the centre of the mineral basin, has quietly and sluggishly awaited the progress of events, and now, with a few thousand doliars, (less than $15,000.) they are preparing to take advantage of the facilities presented at their door, by the completion of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, immediately in front of their property. Under these circumstances, it may be readily admitted that the city of Cumberland has rome eause for apprehension, especially should capitalists turn their at- tention to the water-power of the Potomac, and commence the establishment of a manufacturing community in the very heart of the mineral region—an event by no means unlikely soon to take place, as this location will command the trade by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, to the great West, as well as to the Atlantic, Stock Exchange. g she EriaRR.... 50 do every other remedy to no benefit, he will ite virtues, Office No. 3 Division street Consultations private MONEY MARKET. é Wepsespay, March 24—6 P.

Tho manufacturing interest of New England has been de- Pressed more from the want of knowledge on the part of the proprietors and managers, than from any want of pro- tection from the government. The progress and operations of the numerous enormous manufacturing companies of the New England States have been from time to time of the most extraordinary nature—eometimes up and some- times down ; one year paying large dividends, and an- other making large losses. Under the same policy of the government we have seen all sorts of fluctuations in these establishments; notwithstanding which, immense fortunes have been made, and those who have made them have been known throughout the country as lords of the loom. They have, even in their palmiest days, never neglected an opportunity to appeal to the sympa- thios of government, for the purpose of strengthening the monopoly they enjoyed, and year after year the most sturdy beggars at the door of Congress have been the millionaire manufacturers of Massachusetts, Having, for such a long period, been so liberally protected, at the | considered it nothing more than right that it thould be continued, Since the public erib hes been closed, and they can no longer fatten at the public cost, they have been most clamorons, and, through their organs, keep up the ery of protection, distrers, and ruin. Previous to 146, feeling confident that the tariff of 1842 was a fixed fuct—that the protection they then enjoyed was perma- nent—the most extravagant expenditures were made for the erection of new mills, new machinery, &c., and the extension of manufactories almost every year was sufll- cient for at least five or ten. It was nothing more than ® period of speculation, dependent entirely, for succoss, upon the continuation of government patronage and protection, It was carried to such an extent that it was supposed by the prime movers that Congress would be overawed by the amount of capital involved, and, of course, political power controlled, and continue at least the sup- port then provided for, and perhaps increase it, ‘The im- pudence of the New England manufacturing interest is pretty generally known, and nowhere better than in Washington, The repeal of the tariff of 1842, in 1846, and the adoption of a tariff solely for revenue, was a mo ment the manufacturers of Massachusetts little expect and were wholly unprovided for, They were, at that time, in @ position similar to fancy stock speculators, after an enormous inflation in prices, upon a sudden turn ip the crews on the money market—completely pante struck, The lamentations of their organs were enough to aroure the sympathy of the hard hearted free trade members of Congress; but strange as it may seem, they did not. There is no doubt but that the moet siderable activity in manufacturing stocks, and some of expente of many other equally important interests, they | 100 10. . 25 Nicaragua. nb a # L Island “Ri do sérip, SECOND $1000 Erio bonds "50 ete prio bonds '50.., 104M 18 shs Hnd Ri OTE 200 ths Reading RR. 7538 25°" do...
