The Senate of the United States were engaged yeetorday, in active legislation upon several bills of Paramount importance to the whole country. The bill granting to Obio the unsold and unappropri- ated lands in that State wae engrossed by a vete of | 281018. There goos over two hundred thousand | aeres more of the public domain. Land has been | swept off at a wonderful rate by the present Con- | gress. Mr. Mangum has » personal explanation to | make to-dxy. Wonder if itis in referonee to that | | Congressional caucus, of last Friday night. His | pesition in that affair requires some explanation; | and if he hasan explanation to give, we deubt not | it will be frank and satisfactory. We are on the | eve of a great critis, and it behoves every man te | toe the mark | Just as was to be expected, the proposition of | the Joint Committee on the Congress Printing, | *o quash the contract with Boyd Hamilton, and | to give the House printing to the Union, and | fhe Renate printing to the Republic, dees not | get on as emcothly as was to be desired. In the firet place, the division of the werk be- @ween two offices will double the cost of the eomposition; whereas, in one office the s forms would answer for the saune deecuments for both Houses. But that ix not the diffeulty. The friends of the Southern Press—the especial organ ef the Ronthern rights party—are in for a share. It is sight to demand it. And the National Era cught to put in its claim. The old fogies have hada good | sop in the skillet, and the young ones ought to Ihave a chance. At all events, if the troasury ia to be plundered for the sake of supporting the | party organe at Washington, the least that can be done is to make « fair division of the plander, al} round. In a parliamentary senre, ‘ honor among thieves,” is the fundamental maxim of the profession. Let the Southern righte men stick to their organ. Thedemocrats are swampod without the Kouthern rights party, and they can bring the eld fogies to terms, and screw a share of the print- img out of their hands, if they insist en it, or com- pel them to fall back upon the honest plan of a go- vernment printing office, ae proposed by Mr. Flo- renec. Let Mr. Brown, ef Mississippi, hold fast to Ale ergan, and let the free soilers perevere for # | few crumbs of comfort to the National Era, and it may reeult to the public benefit, ty a general agreement to withdraw the public money from fhe support of the party press altogether.— There is truth in the eld saw, that ‘ when rogues fall out honest men get their just deserts.”” Possibly this may apply to the Congress printing, for it looke likea ‘knavieh piece of work.” In the | debate, yerterday, it will be ecen that Mr. Polk was asanxious as J): ry te have some one ‘ write Bim down an ass;"’ and wo hould probably gratify his wish upon this point, if we didnot believe him to be a chip of Young America, end decidedly hostile te the Maine Liquor law, which ie an indication of geod common Kense. Upon the whole, the debate ef yesterday looke well for the public treaeury. Bomething will have to be dons in eaveus, or the Dbenue to the will We like the fun amazingly.

Doubts are entertained of the success of the bill for the pay- ment of French spoliations. The claus ought to have been decided hy Congress, one way or the ether, long ago. The proceedings in the Btate Senate, yeeterday, are porsorsed of unusual interest. The committee appointed to investigate thefcharges that bribes, or | Diack mail, had been given by certain benks, in | erder to secure the deposits of the canal tolls, made ®@ report which, if nothing else had heen known, very | early establishes the fact that bribery and cor- | ruption have been practised, on the most extended | seale, with regard to the management of the canals im this State.

Tt is asingular vo idenee, that the Senate of the Jnited States, silerh ped the question.cf intervention with the e of Kossith from Washington, should ako it vp agein immediately upon his return. It would sccm that the wise heads of that vencrablo body..are determined to make the mort of every opportunity to instruct the illustrious Hungarian in the true principles and policy of our government in reference to European affairs. And if it were not that these Senatorial instructions were awaste of the public time and the public me- ney, and interfered with the legitimate routine of public business, the solicitude of the Senate upon the intervention question would be a commendable thing. But we must also remember that something is due to the Presidential quostion, to popular opin- ion, and to Buncombe: and the Senate cannot permit Kossuth to have the argument all his own way. The epesch, therefore, of the Hon. John Bell, of Tennersee, in the Senate on Tuesday last, en the in- tervention question—considering the tour of Koseuth around the United States—considering the “financial, and material aid” which he bad already got out of the contingent fund of the Senate—and considering the programme laid down by aicading Koseuthergan, for active intervention in the invasion and conqueet of Europe by <Jen. Scott—ané considering the Gen- | cotton and our California gold. lican principles upon the earth. He even thinks it probable that Louie Napoleon, having no cause of war with hie fellow absolutists, and being under the neces- sity of giving employment to the French army some- where, may be driven to the expedient of ing an ‘Invincible Armada” to lay siege to the city of Washington. We had insulted Russia in the recep- tion of Kossuth ; and, in the event of an invasion by Louis Napoleon, the least that could be ex- pected would be a combined descent upon our shoree by all the powers of Europe. Such ore the apprehensions, not of a schoolboy, but-of a United States Senator, of sober age and long experience, all the way from Tennossee. Buch drondful fears are simply ridiculous. We hold the power in our hands of compelling Furope to keop | the peace. Europe is tho market of our Southern Let our supplier | of cotton be stopped, and her millions of people en- | gaged in cotton manufactures will rise in revolt, for starvation is the sure fomenter of rebellion, Let our supplies of gold be ewspended, and the bankrupt governments and financial classes of Kurepe will be thrown into chaos, and from chaos inte revolution. Peace with us ie necessary to the internal peace of | Europe, and the despots know it too well te doubt it. Besides, the refuge of our country, and of our free and glorious institutions, are bringing thonsands | of the European red-hot republicans to our sherce every day—perhaps equal to an army of at least one hundred thousand fighting men in the course of a | year, And the removal of these materials of revo- | lution is too such in accordance with the policy of despotism tostopit. They will not dare to reverse | it, and turn thetide back again upon Europe, by an invasion from Louis Napoleon, the last man in the world that would undertake an enterprise so Quixotic and absurd. ) Mr. Senator Bell, however, urges the necessity of arming our fortifications, and of building up a navy sufficient to meet this apprehended European inva- sion. Perhaps he isright, in view of the Presidential election. It may be convenient to give the ad- ministration as much patronage as possible, to meet the necessities of the campaign. There is a surplus of thirteen or fourteen millions in the Treasury. Why should it lie idle, when ships and armies are wanted? But above all, in view of this apprehend- ed war with Europe, it will be necessary to place at the head of affairs a man vorsed in the science of war, and fully able to meet the world in arms. | Who is that man but Gen. Scott? The gist of thie speech is, that the critical relations between Europe and Ameriea demand the election of Scett to the Presidency. The case is made out. The speech of Mr, Bell is a speech for Scott. It is an argu- ment for a military chieftain upon a military plat- form. It begins with non-intervention, and winds up witha general war. Gen. Scott is the man for this last crisis. Let tho friends of Webster and Fillmore keep an eye on Mr. Bell. Vaure or Oxy Wine.—The New Your Henanp becomes more rich, racy, and valuable, as it be- comes older and more rare. The back volumes of the Hrratp are, in thomsel & possession highly..to be esteemed. Happy is the man that hath his shelves full of them--without them no bock-collection can be considered complete; and no paing or expense are spared in procuring this indispensable component of a library, in Europe as well as in America. Wo have just learned ecal’s proxpecte for the Presidency—was a speech in good time, and directly appliceple to the cireum- stances of the case. The scasonebleness of a speech sheuld be the first consideration, of a speaker—the time, the place, the occasion. Uson this point, Mr. Bell was exeeediugly happy—the. time, the place, the oceasion—Kossuth being in ‘own—were all apropos. The pith and substance of the argu- ment are, however, of more importance ; and the opinions and apprehensione of Mr. Bell upon this subject of interventson, are sufficieatly curious to ustifya brief examination. He hae made a power- | ful speech upon a great and comprehensive ques- | tion—he takes a curious and startling view of the ubject ; and it ix important to know kow far it will tally with the facts of kh story, experience, and prac- tieal philosophy. Mr. Bell recites the history of the late European revolutions correctly. He details with mficient cor- failure, one and all, and the causes of the ro-establishment of despetism up- ona firmer Sasie than before. It is true that the savage and destructive thoories of sociahem and rank infidelity poisoned the very feuntaius of liberty in Europe, and that thus the whole current.of her republican principles was rendered nanseoue, dis- gueting and deadly. It was to be expected. It could not beavoided. The philosophy of Voltaire and the seeds of the first French revolution had been sewn broad-cast over the Continent, and had taken deop reot under the superstitions, traditions, miracics and mummeries which had for ages superseded the simple elements of the New Testament. Tgne rance and superstition are ever allied, and frum eu- wy. Thae, in I848, when the paople of Barope struck forliberty, it wae for the liberty and license of socialism and infidelity. Between the mastery of they could y. cee.

Thoy were theorists, metaphyticians, transvendemtaliste, bnilders of stles in the clouds, socialists, or infidele. Ledru Roliia, Louis Blane, Mazzini. Kankel, and Koseuth, were eyuully the visionaries of igpossible abrtrac- tions. Their theories were splendid, but they lack- ed the essential element of common sense.

But he saye the dospotic powers of Burope have reawp to be jealous of the United water; | a couple of incidents which illustrate the high ap- preciation in which the Hrraxp is held, and the desire, manifested to be the possessor of its back sheets. A fow years since, an advertisement appoared in ‘the morning papers of this city, offering to treat with any person who had for sale a complete set. of its back numbers. A gentleman who was so fortu- nate, or rather so provident, as to possess them--- thongh not bound in volumes---answered the adver- tisement and arranged to meet the person who wanted them. The latter offering, at the first bid, to hay-the whole lot at the rate of two cents a piece--sthough some of them had originally cost but one cent---the owner, who was a genuine shrewd Yankee, eaw that here was an opportunity to drive a good bargain, and fixed the cost at six cents cach, at which price the bargain was concluded—the lucky vendor pocketing some three or four hundred dol- the transaction. Subsequently the purchaser mood him that he was the agent of a banking firm in Hamburg, and was commissioned to procure the back files. of the Henan, regardless of expense. The only other similar instance which we will here cite, is one which occurred a few days since. An advertisemont appeared, offering for sale ten vo- lumes of the Nunw York Heranp. The owner was waited on by a gentleman, who, on ascertaining the price fixed on hie property—@10 each volume—wrote to his principal in Mobile for further instractions. Pending the receipt of his answer commissioning him to pay the price asked, he was evticipated by another gentleman, who, fully aware of the real value of the lot, offered an advance of a dollar per volume, and actually paid down $110 for the entire, well pleased, ashe ought, with the good bargain ke had made. These, and many other like instances which we | could cite, if necessary, evince the great value of | the New York Heranp. It is universally appreci- ated, not only ne by far tho most complete journal of news on this continent, but as also presenting in its coluzins the most perfect ad reliable compendium of all the great political, fashionable, financial, re- | ligions and moral events passing on the earth. In all those phases it is therefore an invaluable autho- rity for historical reference ; and hence the earnest- ness manifested to procure its back numbers. In all mattere of daily interest, to every class of the com- munity, ite superiority to all other journals on this | continent is anquestionable as it is immeasurable, and the appreciation in which it is held is plainly inanifeat in ite great cireulation through the length and breadth of the land.

A vast soa, studded with fertile islands, with good harbors, and favorable sailing winds, is beautifully adapted for “the liquid road” between this country and wealthy Asia. To prophesy the ultimate civilization of that begun by England in Hindostan and China— cannot be thought chimerical, nor that sueh civilization will and must, of necessity, be pro- mulgated by commercial genius, and intercourse with enlightened nations. Inancient and in modem times the countries of Asia have been pre-eminont in farnishing the inhabitants of rougher olimes with most of the necessities, luxuries, and splendor ap- potamia of the world, from the foundation of the garden of Eden, and the first successful cultivation of apples, down to the present time. Greece and Rome, in the height of their grandeur, thirsted for her territory and riches, and carried their conquests as far a8 practicable. England derives the chief source of her greatnese—at the bottom of which is: her wealth—from her vast India possessions, of which Bonaparte was eo well aware when he planned the subjugation of Egypt. Her maritime power, resulting in a great degree from her insular position, her enterprise, her comparative internal freedom, the absence of neighboring broils, and her perse- vering Saxon spirit, obtained her these and other vuluable possessions. Next to her may be ranked Holland, a sea-board nation, though of a stolid, yet of a free and bold ge- nius; and next Spain and Portugal, iron bound, su- perstitious, and weak. Civilized colonization and universal commercial intercourse, have yet to be developed. With insignificant exceptions, England has had it all her own way in Asia, and indopen- dently has been the greatest pirate on record, the Cuban fillibusters notwithstanding. Other nations, through the force of various circumstances, have heen prevented or have neglected to enrich them- eelves from the Eastern mines of commercial wealth. Does the United States possese any barrier to an extended Asiatic intercourse? Just the contrary; a glance at precedent, at her nztural position on the face of the globe and in the ecalo of nations, at her present and future power, and above all, at the un- surpassable commercial genius of her people, de- monstrates, as quick as the thought can be con- ceived, that she is destined to bo—if not the pesses- sor of the .castern part of Asia and the islands of the Pacifice—the principal shareholder in the com- merce with that part of the world, ss a natural and necessary consequence. This is astupendous age, and the mind of the enlightencd world must keep pace and be on an equality with it. A greater ora more momen- tous period has not occurred.

England holds Hindostan by means of the East India.Company, and extracts incomparably more wealth from her possessions than she would under treaties from her native princes. She is her own landlord. She got Hong Kong into her clatches by a eombination of opium and honor. British “honor” is, at timos, both the means and the ob- stacle to her oxtending her territorial influence.

Garrison and GreeleyAntl-Slavery and Treason. ‘The recent fugitive slave case in thie city, w! excited so much attention, by the developement of the pugnacions propensities of the lawyers engaged in it, and which resulted in the remission of the captured runaway to the ewployment from which he had escaped in Baltimore, nas furnished to pil the abolition papers in this city, and in the North generally, a fresh topic on which to vent forth their spleen ageinst the South, and enuneiate again the pernicious revolutionary and disorganizing prin- ciples which they profess. The notorious Win. Lloyd Garrison’s paper, pub- liehed in Boston under the title of the Liberator, is somewhat extensively known as the authorized organ of anti-slavery in the New England Rtates, it having been established and been kept in exis istence for that sole and specific purpose. This journal is, consequently, the bitterest aud most un- | compromising opponent of the Fugitive Slave law— | even mere noisy thanthe Hon. Wm. H.Seward—and it agitatee for its repeal, regardless of the conse- quences, and unrestrained by any consideration as to whether that object is attainable at any less sacri- fice than a sanguinary social revolution, and the ultimate disruption of the Union of the States. One of its mottoee expresses ite principles in four words—‘‘ No union with slave-holders.” It iz, there- fore, natural that in a journal professing such doc- trines, and establiehed for such » purpose, the recent fugitive elave case in this city should have been com- mented on in the moet violent and uninoasured terms of reprobation, and that all who sesisted in the execution of the law should eome under its ter- rible anathemas. Its last number, of the 9th instant, doosnot dleap- point these expectations. We Sind init denuncia- tion aud abuse of the real sort.

Can the Sonthern whigs, with any regard to their own con- stitutional rights, fraternize, on any pretence, with such men as Seward and Co., who are encouraging these avowals and these courses at the North? CriesraTion o¥ * Fourrten’s Brarupay.—lIt seems that the admirers of Fourrier, the French socialist, celebrated his birthday at a country place somewhere down on the Now Jersey shore, where a number of these visionaries—men and women—have associated together, and call it the ‘* North American Phalanx.” Several of these idealogists went from this city to join in the celebration. They had a dinner in the afternoon, a fancy ball in the evening, danc- ing and enjoyment, and toasts and speeches, and all such things that mark similar celebrations. Some of their toasts are very significant of their doctrines and their expectations “in the good time eoming.”’ It appears that the condition of women is not yet satisfactory to this portion of eociety, but they look the coming age. This North American Phalanx is the last of tho Fourricrite associations, numbering twenty or thirty, which have been attempted in this country during forward to the time when the rights and liberties of lovely woman will be acknowledged in the fulness of to cupy it as a Mantill undertaken to cell St jeonard xtrect, 1 the Ist of May, ¥. 1, then retaining the whole of the store.

There may be one or one and ahalf still in existence somewhere out West ; but this North American concern, of Jersey, is the only one that still hangs together in a very loose way, on this side of the Alleghany mountains. This Phalanx consists of a tolerably sized farm, stocked with cat- tle and horses, and Fou ‘ites of both sexes. They are a qneer sot of visionaries, and look on Fourtier as the modorn Messiah of the present age, who was actually sent on earth by the Divinity, to enlighten the world, teach man his duty, and woman her j tights, ofwhich she has been deprived since the | creation of the world. ‘They are a curious company | of enth: ‘ionuries—half amiable, half contemptible—oceupying very much the sume posi- tion ag ihre ule Semmes adwirers of Tom Paine or losophors of past D> onro.—Korsuth has reaehod gton, ou bis return tothe North, and » ys pass through hore in a few days, to W Ho remains two or throe days at and alrondy it is said that Senators Cass anc ward have called on him to present to him thelr re- rpects and to report progress on the movements of intervention, aud on the procpect of getting the United St | movements ion. to take purl in the revolutionay Europe.
