Cass made an elaborate speech in the United States Senate, yesterday, in support of the proposi- tion to give additional compensation to the Collins steamers. The General argued upon broad national ground, and demonstrated the advantages of these steamers in case of war. It will be recollected that they were specially constructed so that they may, in a very short time and at small expense, be turned into vessels of war that would eclipse the world for speed, strength, and capacity, which are the easen- tial requisites for naval service. They occupy a prominent position, not only in the maritime com- merce, but the naval history of the country. After Gen. C. had concluded, a vote was taken on Mr. Jones’ proposal to reduce the appropriation to $25,000 a trip, and it was rejected hy 2] to 28. Mr. Brooke, of Miss., then moved to strike out the clause giving additional aid, and instead, give the present com- pensation, together with the revenues derived from all postage matter transported by these steamers. This was negatived by the decisive vote of 9 to 38. An amendment was adopted, giving Congress the | privilege of withdrawing the additional appropria- tion after 1854, by giving six months notice. The votes yesterday render it quite positive that the extra compensation will be granted. A report was yesterday made in the House of Re- presentatives, by the Committee on Printing, in which it is asserted that the contractor has failed to mect his engagements—that the Joint Com- mittee of the Senate and House, in accordance with their express obligations, have entered into con- tracts with the proprietors of the Union and Re- public to execute certain portions of the work—that the House has no legal control over the action of the Joint Committee, and, therefore, that the Sena- torial portion ef said committee will pay no at- tention, whatever, to the mandates of the House. Here’s a fuss that is likely to create more excite- ment than ever on this subject. The old fogy organs of both parties have got a taste of the public pap, and their friends intend that they shall have more. The subject will come up next Wednesday, when a great flare up may be anticipated. If the profits are to be given to party organs, they ought to be equally divided, The Southern Press and the National Era ought to have an equal share. The Boston Common Council have invited Seere- / tary Webster to speak in Faneuil Hall next week, An association has just been formed in that city, | fornia appears to have been discovered—the Vera his mind, take courage, and give us seme fine play upon the aspect of England, and her present tory government. Let him haves slap at Louis Napo- leon, Kossuth, Kinkel, and the lot, and show up all the humbugs. He hae got a good field for action | before him, and let him make good use of it. Let | him remember that we aro the refuge of martyrs— | political, religious, and all kinds—and that oursym- pathies have always run strong on the subject of martyrdom. | Mr. O'Connor will find backers, friends, and sym- | pathizers, and could get up a considerable row apon a variety of platforms, and in a variety of places, and then go back to England and set about republi- canizing it, all in his own way, and destroy and | discourage his enemics, for he has fewif any friends in that country. Ho might have done well—might have got a place, and got money—but his strong po- litical feelings and exeitable nature were all against him ; he has been much “ more sinned against than sinning,” and has received much base ingratitude from those whom he sought to benefit. It may be hard to tel] how far disappointed ambition and va- nity were mixed up with his patriotism; but from a knowledge of Mr. O'Connor’s character, we think it might have had a share of these qualities; but still that would not lessen the results sought to be achieved. In the whole course of his politieal career, he seems to have been unaccountably blind to the instincts of the English people, and of human nature; he overlooked the fact that— Quem vis media elige turbi ; Aut obavaritid, aut miserd ambitione laborat Much less did he understand how to manage or pander to these instincts; his national land scheme presents abundant evidence of this. Mr. O’Connor, | however, has a sphere of talent, and here is a promie | nent stage, and no doubt he would command good audiences. Tne Tenvanterec Rovrr.—The Tehuantepec treaty, we have reason to believe, notwithstanding the doubts ef the New Orleans journals, has been decisively rejected by the Mexican Congress. What | Mr. Webster will do in this exigency, remains to be seen. We perceive it has been suggested by awhig paper, of the Seward stripe, that a forcible occupation of the Tehuantepec route would be a good policy, for the very good reason that we can’t dispense with the advantages of this route; but, in the meantime, anotherand a shorter route to Cali- Cruz and Zacatula route, of which we gave the particulars in a leading article of the Hera seve- ral weeks ago. A New York company, consisting of Simeon Draper, A. C. Ramsay, and others, have secured a charter for fifteen years, for this route, including the exclusive privilege of transporting the foreign mails across the republic of Mexico. The com- pany have been incorporated by’ our Legis- lature, and we understand they are now en- gaged in placing coaches for the overland trans- portation between Vera Cruz and the navigable waters of the Zacatula, which empties into the Pa- cifie five or six hundred miles above Tehuantepec. Steamers on both sides are to be placed on this route as soon as possible; and if, as is estimated, the trip can be made by this new route from New York to San Francisco in fifteen or sixteen days, we shall not require the Tehuantepec route for some time to come. The shortest time between San Francisco and New York has been by the Panama route, requiring something over twenty-five days. If this time can be reduced by the Vera Cruz route to sixteen, or even eighteen days, it will pay. And, possessed of the advantage of this latter route, if they shall prove to be genuine, we do not sce that Mr. Webster need distress himself about the Tehuan- with the view of elevating My. W. to the Pre- sidency. It is believed that the majority of the delegates, selected by the New Jersey Democratic Convention, are favorably disposed towards Com. Stockton. They were not hampered by instructions. By the latest accounts from Mexico, we learn that anew minister has embarked for.the United States with full instructions to effect a final settlement of the Tchuantepee difficulty. i The Methodist Episcopal Convention yesterday eonfirmed the decision of the Troy Conference, which expelled the Rev. Asa Sprague for practising mes- merism and spiritual manifestions, in the course of 2 a load of mannre is said to have disappeared. who, with several others,4vere yes- terday amusing themselves by working a hand car on the Rome railroad track, were run over and in- stantly killed by a freight train. Notwithstanding the frequent and awfal warnings, people will not keep off the track. This is the third or fourth in- anee in which ladies have been killed on our Western roads within a few days. Capt. Edwards, his mate, and three men, were lost by the wreck of the schooner Nassau on the 24thof March. The N. left this port on the 15th of March, for Ponce, P. R. Cotton went up another fourth of a cent on the | receipt of the Pacific's news at New Orleans. The bank forgeries case was commenced yester- day in the Court of General Sessions, with the trial of Captain Rowe on the Pacific Bank check. The court adjourned till Monday, when it is supposed this trial will be concluded. The testimony of the boy Woodruff, who has been admitted as States’ evidence, was all taken, and two other witnesses, but the case for the prosecution was not closed. A full report will appear, probably, to-morrow. Stanley, the husband of a woman who pleaded guilty last term to a charge of burglary, voluntarily surrendered himeclf, and, with a view to procure her liberation, declared that he was alone guilty, and that she had acted under his directions. He was fully committed. Four ladi Mr. Feargus O'Connor, the Great Charitst Orator, In New York. Mr. Feargus O'Connor, the well known Chartist orator, and member of the British House of Com- mong, axsrived here on Thursday, by the Europa, and is now staying at the Irving House. We are not in the seerct of Mr. O’Connor’s actual intentions; but | there is a wide field in our susceptible and excitable republic for the exposition of the abuses of the Eng- | lish aristocratic system of government, and the de- gradetion in which the masses of the people are held in the mother country, and whose champion Mr. O'Connor has been. He has been a good orator in his time; and possessing warm sympathies, his popularity among the lower classes of the Eng- | lish was considerable. Having been the friend o° | O'Connell and Sheil, and intimate with most of the | Jeading political characters who have played their parts in the English political arenas for the last thirty years, he necessarily possesses a fund of anec- dote and peculiar information. Throughout the whole of his political Gareer he has sided with the people, and earned for himself the title of a ** dema- gogue”’ from the aristoeracy. His national land scheme—a sort of phalanx plan—was ill-conceived, and, as is well known, was a failure, and entailed upon him considerable personal loss and great men- tal excitement, and derangement. We always be- | lieved Mr. O’Connor to be sincere in his professions, but rash, hot-headed, and imprudent—hence the results Kinkel and Kossuth have each performed their revolutionary mission ; and we now have another “star” in the political horizon, representing popular rights and the virtues of John Bull republicanism, who could afford us mueh entertaining and pleasur- able excitement, to fill up the present lull. We are getting so pleased with and used to political « citement, that by-and-by we shall no It sharper up new tt able to dis- ponse with it sympathies, ope developes new prac finpetus to our go-ahead propensit fery, and pecuniary matt there chance of tepee route, unless he feels a lively interest in the individual rights of the Americans interested in the Garay grant. This whole business, however, includ- ing the arrest of Capt. Levy, is very mysterious and very much involved; and may possibly yet result in some trouble with Mexico. No telling till Mr.- Webster returns to Washington. Conxecricut a Rum Srate.—Highly important intelligence, of a very melancholy character, has just been received from the State of Connecticut— not by telegraph, not by stage—but through the spiritual medium of the New York organ of all the “isms” of the day. We are informed by this won- derful organ, that the State of Connecticut—hitherto considered “true blue” in point of morality and re- ligion, and correct in everything, according to the Bible and the Westminister Catechism—has made a complete summerset in morals and picty, and now presents nothing but scenes of immorality—reeling drunkards, hurrying as fast as they can, some to the insane asylum, some to the almshouse, some to the State prison, and others dying by inches by the road- side. The Governor of that unhappy State has been, according to this announcement, ‘‘wafted to his present dishonorable elevation on the tainted breath of drunkards and by the money of rumsellers” and “now sits in bis Presidential chair, their pur- chased instrument, attorney, and tool.” In such style does the Zribune inveigh against the back- slidings of what was once the land of steady habits— but now, alas, how changed !—its people ripening for the State prison and the insane asylum, and its Go- vernor taking his stand with the ‘sons of Belial,” of whom he is the purchased tool! We are not, however, informed the amount of the purchase, or for how many barrels of rum the bargain was con- cluded. Seriously, however, itwould seem to be now a question whether the drunkenness of fanaticism or that of rum is the worse species of madness. When we see such balderdash, such rant, such nonsense, such vulgarity, such almost insanity, promulgated in a daily journal of the city of New York, it is high time for sensible people to see if there are any va- cancies in our insane asylum; for certainly there will Yery coon be some applicants for admission into that establishment. Wuat 1s He }—Wuers 1s He Is ex-Governor Marey an old hunker or a barnburner? In Mr. Polk’s cabinet, we believe he was an inveterate old hunker, and was hated by the Sage of Kinder- hook and his promising son Prince John, and their party, as bitterly as they hated Robert J. Walker or General Cass. Of late, however, it appears that he has been supported by some of the barnburners about Albany, as their candidate for the Presi- dency. The Democratic Review suspects that this is a trick, and that they are merely lifting up vy the patch of his old breeches, to give him full at Baltimore. The ex-Governor, at al events, is true to his platform of the epoile. Old hunker or barnburner, he is still for the spoils. ticks like wax to the cohesive power of the public plunder, and is always on the look-out for the strong side of the democracy, and always on hand when ‘he spoils are divided. But he is an old fogy, “done the State some service,” has hada smashing haul at the spoils, and is now only fit to be turned adrift. He may be anything or nothing, now, for he is alrea d up among the remains of the Albany Re It is all over with Marey. Usion Couns, L. stake $200, mile heats, b §. MeLaughiin ent Nodine entered b.

Yesterday afternoon, a very extraordinary affair took place before Mayor Kingsland, respesting the capture of an English gentleman, named Dr. Andrew Ploomer, of Brighton. England, on the complaint of Gol. T, A. How- ard, of the British army, who eharges that the Doctor has defrauded him of £1,900 sterling, amounting to about $9,000, under the following the Colonel before the Mayor:—It seems that the Colonel as detailed by | | and the Doctor were intimate friends, residing at | England; and a few weeRs ago, the Colonel , ‘ton, concluded to take a tour, and left for Bologne; but pre- vious toleaving, the Doctor knowing that the Gbtonel had the above numed amount of money in the house, por- suaded him tolet him (the Doctor) place it in his bank for rafe keeping during his absence. ¢ Colonel, having implicit confidence in his friend the Doctor, agreed to the ition, and accordingly let him have the money. ¢ Doctor then deposited the money in the bank to his own credit. The Colonel left on his tour; but scarcely had he been gone a week before the Doctor conceived a plan whereby to possess the funds himself; and, in order to do eo, he drew the money from the bank, abandoned his wife and four children, and eloped with a Miss Emma Patterson, a girl of very genteel appearan years of age, und rather good looking, the daughter of neighbor, a riding master in the town of Brighton. They now. together with the $9.000, took passage for this | country, in thesteamship Niagara, arriving at Boston on Saturday last, and forthwith proceeded to this city, 04 | man and wife, putting up at the Irving House, As soon as the elopement was discovered, the Colonel was advised of the fact, returned home, and ascertaining that the partics had taken passage im the steamship for vuilt: this pepe he therefore took himself, in pur- | suit, in the steamship Europa, w! arrived at this port ursday evening. The counsel of the British Con- sul was sought by Colonel Toward, and Mr. Bowyer, one of our expert police officers, was sent fer to ferret out the whereabouts of the runaway Doctor, The mat- ter now being placed in the hands of the police. Mr. Bowyer started on the search, and the same night succeeded in detecting the Doctor at the Irving House. The fact was communicated to Mr. Howard, the pro- prictor of the hotel, who gave the officer some informa- tion respecting them. He said that the Doctor, on Mon- day morning, informed him that a trunk containin good deal of his wife’s wardrobe had been lost, and therefore wished to be recommended toa store, in order to replenish the clothing. Mr, Stewart's store was re commended for that purpose, and the Doctor and wife | made purchases amounting to near $200. The bill was sent to the desk of the hotel, and paid by Mr. Howard. As the whole affair could not be construed into a criminal matter, a civil suit was brought by the Colonel against the Doctor for the recovery af the money. On this suit a writ was issued, with an an orderto ho'd to bail. All now being in readiness, Mr. Bowyer called upon the Doctor, about two o'clock, and requested him, very politely, to accompany him to the Mayor's office, for the p of examining some lady's wearing: apparel. sup to be the articles alleged to be lost by his wife. The Doctor consented to go, and the officer ushered him into the pri- vate office of the Mayor, where he was requested to be seated. Inafew minutes after, instead of being shown fome Wearing apparel, who should be introduced to the room §but Colonel Howard. the claimant of the money! 'The Colonel, who is a man possibly over fifty years of age. became very much excited, and exclaimed, “Give me back my money, sir.” ‘The Doctor replied, ina very cooland collected manner: “I have no money of yours. You loaned me ome money; but I have no money belong- ing to you now.” The Deputy Sheriff then served the ees and took him into custody. ‘The Doctorfinding imself arrested, requested counsel, Ex-Recorder Tall- madge was sent for, whom hee to act in his bebalf. Miss Emma Patterson was then brought before the Mayor by the proprietor of the hotel. A letter from her parents was handed to her by the Mayor, brought by Colonel Howard, written in the most affectionate manner, imploring her to return and receive their forgiveness; also, a letter exhibiting deep feeling from the wife ofthe Doctor, was shown to the Mayor, de- ploring the terrible disgrace brought upon herself and children by the conduct of herhusband. Emma refuses to return, and exhibits much love and attachment for the Doctor, They embraced each oter at parting in the Mayor's office. The Doctor was taken off by the Sheriff to nd Emma back to the Irving House, under the es- nd protection of Mr, Howard, the proprietor of the 01 hotel. Malls fer Europe. THE NEW YORK WEEKLY HERALD.

Farivar, May 7—6 P.M. The most active fancy on the list, to-day, was New Jer- sey Zinc, which advanced 3g per cent, with large sales. Erie Railroad was in demand at an improvement of 14 per cent. Harlem fluctuates strangely. The company have most encouraging prospects, and the earnings al- ready are equal to a dividend of six per cent on the par value of the stock, notwithstanding which. it is impossi- ble to get up any speculation in shares, and the bears ap- pear to possess the power of depressing it at any time, andas muchas they please. Reading is much better sustained than we anticipated, Lately the stock has not been very active, but the bears have about concluded that the time has not yet arrived for a collapse. Nothing in the world but the easy state of the money market sus- tains this, and most of the other fancies on the list. Norwich, Stonington, and Long Island remain the same as previously reported. Nicaragua advanced to-day 34 per cent. The steamship Northern Light, for San Juan, car- ricd out nine hundred and fifty passengers for California. ‘This has given holders of Transit etock more confidence, and removed whatever anxiety might have existed to put stockon the market. Edgeworth has improved 2j per | cent, and closed with an upward tendency. There is very little of this stock on the market. At the second board the market was not so buoyant, New Jersey Zinc declined *{ per cent; Canton Company 14; Erle Railroad 34; Harlem 34. The sales of each amounted only to a fewshares. These sudden changes in the market are ominous. They are indicative of a weakness on the part of holders, and should by no means be lightly considered. Some day one of these sudden changes may be large cnough to produce a panic, aud the scenes of last July would be acted over again. Opora- tors in Wall street have not forgotten the suddenness | With which the screws were put upon the money market at that time. In one turn, there was almost a revulsion. Nooneknew the causeat the time. The scarcity of mo- ney lasted about six weeks, during which time funcy stocks fell off ten and fifteen percent. We know not the day or the hour when a similar movement will be again experienced, Adams & Co. have made arrangements to deliver, in any part of the United States, or of the world, free of charge, three cent pieces, from the United States Mint Philadelphia, in any sums from $30 upward, The object | of this is to meet the many demands at their offices for this convenient coin, which heretafore they have been | unable to supply. By remitting the money to Aduns & | Co, in this city or Philadulphia, the coin will be forwarded | to any place free of churge, and at their own risk, This coin is rapidly taking the place of the clumsy cent piece, and ina short time the old copper coin will only be re- quired for the smallest payment. There has already been a very large issue of three cent pieces, and the Mint is turning them out at the rate of about a million pieces per month, Adams & Co, deserve much credit for their efforts to get this coin into general circulation, and we hope the liberal offer they have made will be duly ap; ciated. The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port, to-day, amounted to $63,409 31; payments, $27,007 08—balance, $3.586,002 46 Later advices from California must be near at hand Our next recounts will be to the 15th of April—ten days later than those brought down by the last steamer, It is the impression in Wall street that the next arrival of gold dust from San Francisco will be much larger than any previous shipment this year. Thus far, this year, our | receipts of gold have been equal to last. Private lot. ters from San Francisco give the most favorable reports | of the sucess of miners and the arrival of gold dust into that port from the interior, which, if confirmed by the next steamer, will give a new impetus to emigration, and to shipments of merchandise to California markets. Ad- vices recently received from Australia, are full as extra- | ordinary and astounding as those first received from Cali- fornia, and it is equally evident that the result of the diggings will ke full as great. With a production of so- venty to eighty millions of gold in each country, per an- num, it is utterly impossible to form any conception of the effect upon all the old rystems of finance and com- merce, We have no data upon which to make estimates or draw inferences, We cannot look back and argue feom | | | old theories or from established facts, but our eyes oust: be directed to the future—to events as they pass—to enable us to arrive at some gatiefactory solution of this important question.
