AN ISSUE WITH SLAYERY. There sprung up, at the close cf the last session of Congress, a quesnon of mo mentous interest and importance. The Prcridcnt h-d asked Congress for a con fidential appropriation of 2,000,000, for the purchase, as was supposed, of Cali fornia. Mr. Yilmot, of Pennsylvania, oilered a proviso to the bill, declariug that Slavery should not exist in any territory thereafter to be annexed to the Union. And for once, thanks to Heaven, .Mem bers of Congress from the East, the North and the Vv'est, were true to them selves, their constituents and the cause of Freedom. The amendment was adopted; but tli3 object'of the Administration in as king for the money, being thus thwarted, the bill was abandoned by its friends! But the question comes up again in a way that atford3 great encouragement. The President again asks for $2,01)0,000. And again it is proposed to provide for the Freedom of the sol to be obtained ei ther by purchase or conquest. This question, in our judgment, has bearings, deeper and broader than any, or even all others, before Congress. It is to determine whether the power of the Re- jr b lo l0 vvieldej ia lhe ,pirit of . Freedom, or to become subservient to Sla- very. It is, in a word, a contest between Freedom and Slavery for supremacy in the Government of the Union? In such a conflict, in the 10th century, among a copio advanced m civilization, and pro- Let it be borne in mind that ihe annex ation of Texas was sought, avowedly, by Messrs. Calhoun, Upshur, &c, fur the purpose "of enlarging und maintaining a muiaiei , a oiae majoniy in the U. o. OcilavC. Having acquired Tex?.s, the Adminis tration next aimed at California, with oth er portions of Mexican I crritory. That Territory is now Free, and it is the duty of Congress, should any portion of it come, cither by conquest or purchase, m to the Union, to protect its soil from the curse of Slavery ' ; :'. . - -While the South was content to stand upon the : advantages it obtained in tho Ccnst'.tuticn, hateful as Slavery Is, th iMortli- ayiued by the. com promise of its j framers.

Governor Shimk makes an exhibit of our ciate finances, m inu course ui which he states that the public debt has been reduced within ihe year about $190, 000.

The two new steamers Polk and Bibs, belonging to .the. revenue ser vice, have been temporarily transferred to the Navy Department, and are to join the naval forces in the Gulf. The steamers Scourge and Scoiiox are now at the Brooklyn navy yard, and will be soon ready for sea. The storeship Stfply, now at Boston, and one or two other vessels under Go vernment charter, are detained until fur ther orders from Washington, said to be j i' consequence of the late erroneous news Ir .i from the army. The Louisville Journal" of Saturday says: "It. was reported that the steamer General Taylor, bound to New Orleans, was blown into the woods on Thursday night in the neighbarhood of Blue river, which knocked her chimnics down, da maged her wheel-house, &c. The Pick away was passed by the Courier night before last lying in shore surrounded by timber, some distance below this, but had apparently sustained no damage. The Messenger reports two coal boats and a corn boat sunk at Owensborougii, and a flat boat from the Ohio, below Cai ro. She met the Ilarkaway, which had lost her cliimnies." The Madison Democrat says, that m the Milwaukic land district ia Wisconsin, 700,000 acres of land have been sold within twelvemonths, leaving but 500, 000 subject to entry. This is said to be scarcely inferior in quality and advantages to what has been already taken up, and if the tide of emigration continue, not an acre will be for sale at the expiration ol 1817.

Some of our political opponents still charge that when the country becomes involved in a war, the Whigs shrink from the fighting.
