Commercial.—The demand for almost all kinds'

and although the market has not been quite so
brisk, during the last week, yet we believe there
will be at present no great reaction.
lOras reported on the Paris Bourse recently,
that England had applied to France tojoin her in
a protest against the annexation of Texas to , the
American Union.
The London Times and other English Papers,
are still harping on Oregon and Texas.
The Times of May 2, has a long article on An
ne:idiom • The discussions on the subject in Tex
as are regarded with the deepest interest. If Tex
as consents to be annexed, says the Timesi
is highly improbable that any other new State
will• attain to Independence in the Southern re
gicMs of North America, and the proem of the
dominions of the Cabinet at Washington will be
as Tapia' as'thc decay of its defenceless and ungov

Mexico, which became independent 20 years

almost exclusively occupied with the question of
Maynooth—the great-question of the day. The
public mind is still fermenting, and will continuo
tolo so long,after the statute, book has recorded
the enactment of the measure. All doubt about its
'parliamentary success, was sot at rest by the un
expectedly largo majority„ vhich pissed the second
reading-147 ; and-although its zealous opponents
have since shown fight in.the House of Commons
by: another debate, and another division on the
bringing up of the report, yet the last was a battle
mare marked, by parade than earnestness, and thii
foreground was occupied by a number of small
men who must say something to justify theirin
consistency. The same thing will take place on
the third reading ; and although we hear, in the
mit-door meetings of the zealots, that at least a
&Oxen members are to die on the floor of the,Honse
to prevent its passing, yet this brutem fclimen is
estimated at its worth, and people laugh accor
dingly. The House of Lords 'will be vigorously
bombarded with petitions against the [dreaded.

plpular feelings, the mclizine 'will be swallowed

lINUNDATIONS 1:1 GEIMANY.—The Revue de .
Paris slates that the greatest inundations, of which
Germany has any recollection, were those of 1655
and 1784; nevertheless, neither', of those events
were so disastrous as the inundations of the pres
ent year. The entire - Germanic confederation, a
part of Austria, and of Poland have been literally
under water since the goth of March. The,lthin;e,
the Maine, the Neckar,•the Danube, the Elbe, and
the Vistula, have in succession overflowed their
banks, not in a day, but in en hour. Frankfort,
Mentz, Cologne, Dresden. Prague, and a L number
of other towns, and several thousand villages were
covered with water. The magnificent badge of
Dresden has been carried away, and many edifices
have been- destroyed. A subscription has been

State of Texas" prior or subsequent to the meeting,
of Congress. This is a fertile theme for the seve
ral editors. •
The papers contain ample reports of public mee
tings declarative of the feelings of the people in re-
Ord to Annexation. There is no occasion to give
these reports, so nearly unanimous are the senti
ments of the whole country. The Texans sires
!, regard themselves as a part and parcel of the
United States, and, proud of Abe Union, are only
impatient that any delays should be interposed to
its completion. Even the papers opposed to an
nexation but insinuate their objections ; ;they see
that it must take place, and refry n from any open
resistance to it. If we can jUdgfrom the tone of
the press, and from ,verbal communications, not an
the diplomatic resources of the world can sway at
'ail the general mind of Texas.—N. 0. Picayune,

: C•PrAIS WILV.E6 AND THE °nal:so:sr.—The
accounts of Capt. Wilkes of the navigation of the
Columbia, do not raise our opinion of the value of
that river for the purposes of commerce. His ac
eunnt is especially interesting at the present tittle,
bucausedhe river, or its right bank, or' at' least the
right of navigating it, is likely to prove a bone of
contention between our negotiators and ' those 'of
Great Britain'in the boundary question. If . the
difficulties attending this navigation are such as
they are represented, often baffling the skill of the
best navigators, it would seem.atisurd in the Eng
lish Govemmentdo makethe possession of one
bank or: the right to navigate the river, , a point of
very great importance. On the other hand our
negotiators would find less difficulty in conceding
at least the navigation of the stream, if a boundary
line !satisfactory in ether.resperts can be feund,r--
The unfortunate Peacock, after escaping all the
dangers of the southern Polar Region, yielded at
last to the currents and shoals of the Columbia.—
Many other vessels have met the same fate there
'—quite an unusual proportion-we should think.
We do not, like the late Secretary of' War, find
ip this a subject of cosigralutslion because beca _ use it wood
prove an obstacle to an enemy, but it may serve to
Moderate on both aides an extrerhe Arline for the
szetusive possesanna of the River.—Nero York

LATER FROM7EUROPE
TeX GILZAT Raw:lova Movstarsra or TB*
Dir.--Uaquestionably the most momentous.re
ligions movements of the present day, are those
in the Methodist and Baptist denominations.—
Conventions compased of Southern men exclu
sively, are in session at Louisville, Ky., and Au
guSta, Geo., and the ,result or their deliberations
it requires no seer's vision to discern. Both will
not only decide to separate from the northern or
tion of their respective denothinations, *
also organize churches peculiarly South na in
their character before they adjourn. The ground
of ;complaint assigned against the Northern chur
ches is the same in both cases—Abolition. The
agitation in the Methodist church, is well known
to' most of ont readers, to bo based on the action
of the last- General Conference in 1844,, respec
ting Rev. Mr., Harding and Bishop. Andrew. The
former was a member of the . Baltimore Annual
VOnference,' 'end married a wife owning slaves,
thus voluntarily becoming a sla - veholder, and re
fusing to manumi(them, as the Conferenee werei
- assured he had it in his power, With the consent of
his wife, to 4 0 . _ ,
He was klspended by the -Conferenee from his
ministerial fune.tiorts.'snd appealed• to the Gene.
ral Conference; which sustained the decision . ' by
which - he was suspended. The case of Bishop
Andrew is similar—a voluntary and deliberate
connection oT himself with Slavery.. The Gene
ral Conference required bim to desist from the,ex
ercise of his episcopal functions, until he, should
free himself from this embarresment. He would
,niat do it'; in fact, Bishop A. took care to put it
out of his own power to dissolve his connection
with slavery, by executing a , legal' instrunient
which entails the slaves in question on hts wife.—
It was earnestly desired both for. the North and
South that all the Bishops should keep themselves
bee from the contamination, for the moment this
occurred, their acceptatibility and usefulness at the
North, were at an end.
With the cause of offence in the Baptist Church
we are not so well informed. A correspondent of
the Charleston Courier; gives the Southeren ver;
sion thus
'The Baptists hav'e for along time been carrying
on Miisionery operations through a 'Triennial
Convention' representing all the States. This
Convention has a 'General Board' which meets
annually, also an 'Acting Board,' to sit at all
times as" occasion may require. But twelve
months ago the Triennial Convention declared its
intention to remain 'neutral' on the Slavery ques
tion. The Acting Board after the adjournment
of the Convention, replied io the interrogatory of
the Alabama Church—that it could. not consent
to the appointment of a Slarchulder, to any field
of foreign Missionary laboure. This, board is
charged with all such appointment, and Southern
money has been for years and years, going to sup•
port its operations.
'The General Board has lately been occupied
in examining this decision: They have been in
session at Erovidence, R. 1., Itl6srs. deter and
Taylor, of Virginia, attended the Meeting, and aro
-here to report the results. They left'the meeting
in session. Dr. Wayland, President of the Tienni
til was understood to be opposed.to
the decision of the Board. He offered a resolu
tion to that effect, but it was. not thought at all
probable that it would be carried. Amendment
after amendment was tacked on to it, and the im-
Pressio'n seemed to be that the Board - tvould be
sustained-, or nt most, but slightly censured, just
enough to save appearances., These facts must
have an influence upon the:Southern Conven
tion:- ,
The Methodist and 'Baptist of all denOmin,,tiona
in the I.llrited States, are the iargest and most. in-•
fluential, The violent rending assunder of these

er. The effects will be anything but transient—
they will ;be' graven on the hearts of, that very
class, which, in the convulsions of political con
flicts; has kept the Union steady.—Pittsburg
•
Mn. 4- , L+T AND THE saannata . .—The Rev.
Calvin Colton, who is preparing a life of Mr.
Clay says the papers he has received from Mr. C.
relitive to the great 'Bargain and Salo' question
alone form a hundred pages of notes.. .•
"These documents, Mr. Colton says, make de-:
yelopments that are perfectly astounding, and go
to shots; that all the bargaining was on the side
of Jackson and his friends . . It is,proved by them,
we 'are told, that Buchannan came to Mr. Clay,
from Gen. Jackson, with a direct offer, and that
'Houston also, went to lime with another direct
Offer. The snarUn'o which it gets Buchanan,.
Jackson, Eaton, arc.; is perfectly laughable. Jack
son, in his after attempts to get out of this Cilem
ma, when he found that Clay was too noble to be
bought, annihilates Buchanan, and Btichaltan in
endeavoring to throw the burden from his shoul
der, drives the General to. the wall, while Gen.
:Eaton ea/a them both up. The disclosures exhibit
the Jackson men of that period, who Surrounded
;their favorite candidate in a most ludicrous light,
; while it fastens'a hi& on Buchanan's forehead, ha
'will find it impossible to wipe ont.".
These are 'the statements we find in the New
York Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gaiette.
CAELTON HOUSE, (N. Y.) May 13, 1815
To the Editrrs of the Courier 4 Enquirer.
I notice in your paper of this morning,, an er
,tract from the New, York correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazetie, about my work, concerning
which I beg leave to remark—first, that those
, statesments are unauthorized be me; and next.
:that though , not without foundation, they are, in
,seine particulars, incorrect.
Mn. CLAY Awn nrs FntErrne.—Henry Clay is
:not President—but lie is something better,-he is
right in the opinions of the mass of intelligent
Americans. Failing to, elect him to the. Chief
iMegistraci, they could not rest content without
some further testimony of their respect and regard
. than their votes afforded. We have already re.
'corded the fact that by means of a'quiet subscrip
' Lion—started in this city—Mr. CLA r was relieved
of 'considerable erabarressment, incurred through
his generous aid extended to a relative. We since
learn, that the amount raised for Mn. Ciir, is.
about $50,000, of which about $35,000 have
been appropriated to• the removal of all encum
lbrances from his Estate. Ashland therefore stands
free; and its noble owner has besides, a moderate
sum remaining, from the offering.of his friends.—
testimonial was alike unsought and unexpec-
I ted—a tribute to worth which the donors rejoiced
in their ability to make. May the, venerated ob
! ject of the tribute, live long, to know that the thou
, sands who profess friendship for him, feel it sin
' ccrely, true alike in triumph - or defeat to him, who
' throguh a life of long and arduous service, has
been true to the honor and interest of the Coun
trY.—Noth. Am'eiican. . '
°nick()Sr.—The distance of, Oregon ' from the

ACCOIIIIODATINGI ' BOTH WiTS.--The New

A Mr. Coleman, a brother of the inventor of,
the aEolian attachment to the • pieno, has brought
on here another invention, which promises the
greatest results: He is exhibiting at the Patent
Office, the Working - model of a train of care.34)on
a Rail Road tip hill and downt.hill, regardless of
thedegroe of inclination from the horizon, Briefly
on reaching a hill, the action of the locomotive is
transferred from the propelling wheels on the ou
ter track, to a smaller set. of wheels on an inside
track, while in the centre, attache/to the locomo
tive, is an endless screw, which is idapted to work
upon friction rollers, arranged in the centre of thp
track.- Themodel appears to give geneial satis
faction, and if brought into successful operation,
will.be worth a fortune or two to the inventor, and
save millions of money in averting
,the necessity
Of levelling hills and monntalns, in all future eon
