Now, he berates the Democrats for defeating the bill introduced into the Senate by Mr. Crittenden for the relief of the Irish sufferers. We did not watch the progress of the bill while it was .up, but know that it was only objected to by Democeats on the ground that it was unconstitutional. But one Democrat spoke against it, according to our recollection, and this w•as his position. Several Whigs concurred with him, and what is more, Horace Greely, the great leader of the party refus ed to sign a petition in favor of the bill on the very same ground, viz: its unconstitutionality. We shall examine into this matter, as 1,54 dis cover that it may be of some importance, The ..idea of the Whigs malting capital out of it, is, however, too ludicrous to require serious attention. _ . IncarsoNmur I , olt DE ar.—The House of Del egates, on Saturday, passed a bill abolishing impri sonment for debt, as applicable to nonresident debtors. They should hare gone one step further, and wiped this relic of barbarism from the statute books of the State.--Baie Sun. T y. The Sun is right. •Imprisonment for debt is certainly a great u relic of barbarism," and we tristt be day is not far distant 'when the Legisla tures of every state in the Union will remove such a disgraceful stain from their statute books. In Pennsylvania, Ohio, and several other states, it is unknown, except in cases of fraud. Grjy•The American editor his got notion into his head that it will be vastly severe to denounce the ;Democrats as Torirs. Does the gentleman really understand the meaning of the word Tory ? We doubt it. General CAIIR, in his place in the U. S. Senate, opposed the Wilmot Proviso that Slavery shall never be introduced into the territory which may be acquired from Mexico by means of the $.3,0..?0,- WO appropriation, on the following grounds, viz' lit. The present is no proper time for the intro duction into the country and into Congress. of an exciting topic, tending to divide us. when our uni ted exertions are necessary to prosecute the tlip• ing war. W. It will be quite in,season to provide for the government of territory, not acquired from foreign countries, after we shall have obtained it. 3d. The 'proviso can- only apply to British and Mexican territories, as there arc no others coter minus to us. Its phraseology would reach either, though its application is painted to Mexico. it seems to me, that to express so much confidence in the successful result of this wpr, as to' legislate at this time, if not over this anti gated acquisiti at least for it, and to lay down a partial basis for its government, would do us no good in the eyes of the world, and would irritate still more the Mexican people. 4th. Legislation now would be wholly inopera tive ; because no territory hereafter to be acquired can be govenied without in act of Congress pro viding for its government. And such an act on its passage would open thei whole subject, and would leave the Congress celled upon to pass it, I free to exercise its own discretion entirely urton• trolled by any declaration found on the statute book. sth. There is great reason to think that the adoption,of this proviso would, in all probability, bring the war to an untimely issue, by the effect it would have on future operations. 6th. Its passage would certainly prevent the ac quisition of one foot of territory ; Thus defeating a measure called for by a vast majority of the Amer ican people, and defeating it, too, by the very act purporting to establish a partial basis for its gar• ernmenl. 7th. The progress of public opinion upon the question of the adoption of this proviso, as the circumstances of the country have become more and more difficult, seems to me to' indicate very clearly that, since it• introduction at the past ses sion of Congress, the conviction has been gaining ground, that the present is no time for the a,:ita tion of this subject, and as the foreign war becomes mole embarrassing, in a greater degree than many anticipated, it is best to avoid a domestic dispute, which would raise bitter questions at home, and add confidence to the motives for resistance abroad.

A DUEL.—The Charlestown (Indiana) Farmer, of the I 7tb ult., gives an account of a duel which occurred, a day or two previous, about nine miles from that place " The parties were Edward C.

This displeased the Mexican Federalists in the United. States—the •leaders, we mean, of the Corwin stamp—and hence 'they are now ernWavoring to force Mr. Clay out of, their party!

We have no disposition to taunt our neighbors with want of success, but !oe must say in all sin cerity, that they ate justly liable to the ridicule of all deserving men; and we may add, that hereafter they shoirld be very modest in urging their claims or judgment on the Pennsylvania company, or in any wty attempting further to dictate in prosecu ting this great measttre.-:4 o pieit of Mr Times, —The above is very tine. indeed. And what', offence have the people . of Pittsburgh committed that they have forfeited their right to the privilege of urging their claitnsoi judgment upon the Penn-' sylvania company, &c. Wl4, simply this: They ! desired a connection by railway with Baltimore,? they asked leave Of the Legislature to build a Railread with their — own capital and over their! own soil. This was all. The Chinese ohject.l ed, contending that Pittsburgh people should deal with them, and required the Legislature to rotee! upon them the Central route, in substance decla ring you shall buy (romps."

There is but one iernedy, for this, Which:is resistence ; a remedy most potent when resorted to deter mination. There is gt. preseqt no excuse for nre duction in the price ;of any, branch of labor; - and we cannot but thinic of the .,, despotism' of capital when We hear of these strikes; for !ewer wages made by employers. Legislation can afford, no re iief to the poor.thus imposed upoti; &Idle opinion may, and this great source of all political and'so cial power, should be directed aright: Let those interested see to it. We have just been informed that the proprie.' tors of the Pittsburgh Iron Works gave notice, last 'Tuesday, to the nail cutters to their' employ, that hereafter their wages should be reduced from to 1 centliel• 100 lbs. This wilfamount to`a reduction of fMm 2 to 10 cents per day- on the ray of each Workinan. We refer. to this on.account of its most 'contemptible .meanness. Such grinding and shaving, is without pirallel. Let no man dare Say that Lorenz &Sterling have been driven to this by the " ruinous - TaritT-of '46." Two facts will set this matter right: the price of Iron has been maintained and tbe demand is increasing. g We bear much said about certain Vapor 43.1thsi to be had some where in the .city. , If the owner Would send in one through tbeP. b . . , or oth erwiSe, we may he able to form some opinion as to its imerits.
