THE SPIRIT OF COMPROMISE
A better feeling is at length beginning'
to pervade our Legislative Halls, ' at Wash
ington. Things :begin to brighten : and,
with. such Statesmen as Clay, Webster,
Cass, Beriton and others, who are in favor
of a settlement of the question of slavery,
we can hardly dotibt that, a settlement of
the question will soon be effected. The
Washington correspondent of the 'BaltimOre
Sun states the Teeehes of Messrs. Clay and
Webster have created a disposition on the
part of our public men to bring this contro
versy to a close. The terms of compromise,
it is stated will be as follows. We will
not vouch for its authenticity, but give it as
one of the rumors of the day.
Ist. California is to come in as a State.
2d. The territorial government established
by the will of the People in Deseret and New
'Siesico to be legalised : judges and other of
ficers to be appointed by the President.
3d. The boundary of Texas to be definite
ly settled, and Texas to be paid a reasonable
1 indemnity for all the territo* east of the
Rio Grapple to be ceded by her to the, U.
States.
4th..Nevv Slave States to come in out of
, Texas as fast as that State consents to the
1 division,and the parts thus set apart have
the requisite population.
MR. WEBSTER'S SPEECH
T i e speech delivered in the U. S. Senate,
by Mr. Wehster, is without doubt, one of the
ableSt that has been deliiered this session. 4
Great and powerful as is the speech ; long
as has Mr. Webster stood before the Amer
ican People, as one of their most eminent
Statmmen, insome portions of the 'country
the speech has created much disappointment
and sensation. 'ln Boston, as we perceive
by the CoUrier, the speech meets with little
favor ; the Tribune, does not hesitate to con
demn the position assumed .by Webster.—
We think, however, that the speech is des;
tined to exercise a more powerful influence
in the settlement of. the Slavery Question
than any that has yet a delivered. The
chief positions of Webster's -speech are
as follows:, ~.
\That the Gave emt Is Unrll° form several slave
States out oi th territory of Texas; that slavery can
cot he extend d to the territories acquired from ?devi
-1

LITEST MOM gALIFO4NIA•—The steam
skip Georgia arrived at New .York after 12
o'clock on Saturday night•last,bringing dates
from San, Francisco up to the' beginning of

(17 The Gas Company..;--We learn that
this Company orgur: &el on Tuesday eve
ning last, by electitntldr.pAnurt.SlLLYllll2l,
71124 dent, Mr.B. taMeron, Secretary and
Treasurer. At the same time, we tilsoleara
that' they fixed the price of Gloat 160 Per
thousand feet.• OU Wednesday, about eighty,
embracin,g more than three-fourths of the
Gas Consumers. signed a palm', refusing to
use the Gas, at these rates, and accordingly
on Wednesday evening, the various lamps,
which had . been removed, were again re•
stored, and but few gas lights Were 'seen in
the Borough.. The council also discontinued
its use; and are now fihitfg up fluid lamps
for lighting the Borough. - • The petition of
the citizens was presented to the. Company
on Wednesday evening; but they declined
making any- reduction in the prices, and fur
nish their reasons for so doing, in an article
which`we publish in another column. As
an act of justice to the Presideat of the,
'pany, and the other stor_lhoiders residing
here,(three or four in Inirober.) we will state
that they , all advocated lower rat es , but were
over-ruled by the foreign stockholders, some
of Nvb9.ln, it is reported' , made use of very
imprudent exprsions, not calculated to ben
efit their cause, but his had the tendency to
cause more determined opposition on the
•
part of the consumers of Gas.
Thii Company was located here under
pe
culiar circumstances: our citizens never had
an opportunity of participating in the stock.
It was confined to a feti persons only, and
the whole project seemed wrapped in myste
ry. We know nothteig,of the intentions of
the Company or • the cost of the works—one
states the.sum at $28,000, another at $35,-
000. Their first act in obtaining a charter
was believed to be an evasion of the Borough
ordinance ; the whole conduct of those who
seem to represent foreign stockholders, has
created an impression that it was gotten up
for speculative purposes, and the People are
determined that they will not be taxed exorb
itandy on one of the nece.slaries of life to ad
vance the interest of any _ speculator. It is
also the opinion of practical men, who have
been connected with gas works for years, l
that $5 Would handsomely remunerate the
companyfor the investment ; and if this'
rate had' been adopted, the consumption'
Would
.have rapidly increased ; but at the
present rate, we question whether a dozen
persons, unconnected with the company,
-will use the Gas.
If the stockholders abroad cannot afford to
furnish Gas at less than $6 per 1000 feet,
all they have'to do is to furnish our citizens
with the actual cost of the works, together
with a fair interest on the money paid, and
they will soon be relieved from the necessity
of furnishing Gas for less than cost—but they
will not pay them at the rate of 40 to $50,-
000 for what ought not to cost more than
from 20 to $25,000.
Since the above was in type, we append
the following from , the Ledger of yesterday :
COST OF LIGIIT,—The Pottsville Gas COM.
pany met on Tuesday evening, and fixed the
price of gas at six dollars per 1000 cubic feet.
This is a pretty large price, considering that
the water gas manufactured in Baltimore
costs but $1.50 albousand feet, including all
materials. By the way, an experiment was
tried in Baltimore. The results were, that
the water gas consumed two and six-tenths
cubic feet per hour, and gave a light equal to
25 sperm candles. The same pressure was
used as for the water gas, and the same gas
burner consumed four feet of coal gas per
hour. and gave the light of less than six can
dles.
0 Extract of Coffee... 7 —We received, a
few days ago, from Mr. - Bahler, a Cißie of
Extract of Coffee, and after trial, pronounce
it an excellent substitute for coffee. By the
use of one half the usual quantity of Coffee
and substituting the extract for the other
half; but few persons can tell the difference,
and those who are fond of this beverige can
indulge in it,. as usual, at a less expense
than before the, rise• in price took place, by
the use of the Eziruct.•

that Mr. John P. Douty; was seriously burnt
in the mines, at. Wadesville, a short distance
from this,Borough, on yesterday week, by
the explosion of Fire Damp. Though bad

the Emporium that "on Sunday night last a
Cow belonging to Mr. Shaffer. of Patterson
Schuylkill County, produced a Calf with One
body and two-perfectly formed heads. From
appearances this extraordinary production
had breathed, but when found was frozen to

e ming t lectine of the series of Academic
Lectures, in Clayton's Hall ► on Monday eve
ningisst. The audience was large and in
telligent. The Laws of Kepler and that dis
covered tylProfessor Kirkwood himself, regu

sublecti—and Intricate as they may appear to
the general reader—they were dwelt upon in
an able and lucid manner.
While nwn 'this subject, .we cannot re

Mr. Hamm.
, DEAR Sta.—The speech of the
Hon. James Cooper, in reply to the impu
dent and arrogant interference of the British
Minister .with the protective policy of .this
country, has been well received here..) ,. All
parties agree in pronouncing it au able and
patriotic effort of eloquence, every way worthy
of his resplendent talents, an 3I the exalted po
sition he occupies. Ills friendxthink that he
enunciated an.important - iruth when:in re
ply to the remarks of 'Messrs. Clay, „Seward
and others he• stated "that heAkeliered he •
best represented - the 'wishes of his constitu
ents when he spoke the honest sentiments of
his heart." Mr. Cooper has already attained I
a high position as a Statesman, even it the
Senate of the United
P 1
States, ar,ii the great
Whig party of .ookmith con
fidence to him, t this time of trial and dis
tress,, as tbf:lr honored, faithful chuff:lion and
Metti, in whose hands their own and the
Country's interests may safely be confided;
knowing they will ever be guirded with the'',
most jealous care, 'and never compromised
whilst committed id his keephig.
In the House, Mr., Porter, has submitted
the report of the'Committee on, the subject of
the repeal Of the act of 1849, 'relative to Ne-
Foes escaping froth Slavery. That act made
it a penal,offence for arty constable to arrest,
any magistrate to commit. or jailor toreceive
any negro arrested - on Suspicion of being a
slave. The passage of the act was based on
a decision of the Supreme Court of the United
States, that the duryof arresting runaway
negroes, belonged properly to the government
of the United, States, and vas not a subjezt
for State Legislation. The act originated ,
with Mr. Thomas Nicholson ;`•at that time a
member from BeaVer county, (at present the
chief clerk in the StateTreasurer'soffice) but
was not passed through the first Session
during the next session of the Legislature,
through the influence of Mr. Bigham; of Al
legheny, it was passed by both Houses and
signed by the Governor. The negroes were
so delighted to think the " hunter of men"
could find no countenance in Pennsylvania,
they presented Mi. 8., with a gold headed
cane, as a testimony of their regard. The
object of the present bill is to repeal that
merciful act of Legislation; that would give
the poor negro smite placd of refuge where
the man' stealer could not take one'born per
haps to • occupy as exalted it position before
the throne of his . heavenly Father, as many
not guilty " of a skin colored like his own,"
though poor and 'wretched, trampled under
toot and despised by his fellow-man, yet
bearing within him a soul worth all that it
cost, and whose value in the eyes of his Crea
tor, the terrible scenes on Calvary bear aw
ful testimony as to its amazing worth. The
poor creature thought that if he escaped into
the land of Penn; he, might at least find no
panderer to that SOuthern chfiralry " that
tears asunder the Sacred ties of husband and
wife, parent and; child, brother and sister,
with the utmost Unconcern; as if the wretched
African were devqid of feeling; • and which
ask the North to sustain and protect them in
the infernal barbarity of their infamous sys
tem. It causes the blush-of shame to man
tle on the cheek of every honest man to think
that any man, or set of men, could be found
in the Legislature ofPennsylvania, so utterly
lost to all the finer feelings of humanity and
even common deeency, , as to recommend the
repeal of this merciful lati, merely for party
purposes. I thank God the Whigs have no
part or lot in thia matter. They are the little
Spartan band, e:sfushed by the cloud of Demo
cratic arrows; 'yet like Job when smited
and afflicted; "they still retain their integrity,"
Like the oak on the monntatn, deep rooted and Elm,
Erect when the tittitode pend to the storm."
Mr. Porter and his friends in thuiyielding
their birthright for political purpose will be
destined to the same fate as the Roman girl
Tarpei, when she betrayed her countrymen
to the Stibines, the reward received for treach
ery will crush them with their constituency
at home.
The farce of. the Investigation relative to
Mr. Ball's official conduet is still progressing
slowly. The great and unpardonable sin on
his part, was, that he, paid off the August
and February interest without making a loan,
and paid it in Gold and Silver, besides fund
ing a portion of the State debt,
and providing
for the North Branch Canal. This was a sin
that could not be overlooked, and accordingly
the great Falstaff of old •Hunker Democracy,
Jesse Miller, (who is at present employed in
the listless inactivity " of quarrelling, with
his own party through the .‘ Keystone" of
which be is editor because
wad and high, the Carsaroa's gathering rose,"
When they have out-mahouvered him in po
litical management, as they always have done
both in County and State Conventions and
leave him and his followers in a glorious mi
nority,) commenced the attack on Mr: 8.,
through the columns of his paper, but Mr.
has met them boldly, and says he is pre- I
pared to show a clear, fair statement of facts
that will show any man he has been most
unjustly and shamefullypersecuted. Mr.
Ball says he dont care anything about the in
dividual whcroccupies the office of State Trea
surer, as he has been a source of trouble to
him for more than forty years past, and it
has been as much as he could do to keep him
in order, but he is determined that no blame
shall attach to the office itself while under
his care. Mr. 8., will come out with flying
colors, all parties agree that nothing but
shame and mortificatiori to all engaged in this
infamous attempt to enislia most worthy and
faithful public servant.
The Whig State Central Committee, met
to-day at the •' Washington Hotel',' in this
Borough, and appointed the meeting, for the
State Convention, to be held in the city of
Philadelphia, on the 19th of June.
No Legislation of any local - interest worth
mentioning. The Apportionment Bill has
passed the Hosise, but in the Senate, I think,
it can never pass in its present shape.

MR. BULWER'S LETTER
•
The following are the remarks of the Hon:.
JAstrs Coorre, on the extraordinary letter
Of Mr. Bulwer, communicated to Congress,.
which we published lait week.. We copy
the reulirks Worn the Washington Republic,
of Saturday last:
• • * As far as the policy of al. e
in
dependent nation towards another is withii
the control of the Executive, and subject-to
regulation by treaty, so far is it legitimately
the object of suggestionanst discussion by the
diplomatic representatives of either. By this
I do not intend to say, that the representatives
of one nation May not make known to.the gov
ernment of another, that its policy iin par
ticular cases, in which it comes tn conflict
with the interests of that (which heiepre
sents. might be modified in such a way as to
be mutually beneficial. But I ,do say, that a,
diplomatic representative fails in tall the
duties of etiquette and courtesy towards the
government to which he is accredited, when
he undertakes to inform it that any contem
plates] legislative acticii.on its part "will pro
ducea very disagreeahle,effect on" the goy
inueent " or public qpinion" of his coon=
try. To do so, sir, is Obtrusive, impertinent,
and deserving .of rebuke. We are compe
tent to manage our own domestic policy,
without, hints, or , suggestions from the agents
of other goiernments, however pawn:fill,
however wise in the management of their
own. It is our duty to xegdlate our own
policy for the benefit of our own people—the
whole of our cirri people—withont reference
to the state of British " public opinion . " or
French public opinion, or public opinion
elsewhere. .
I doubt not, Mr. President, that- British
public opinion is gratified by a policy which
feeds her people though it should starve ours;
but it is impertinent on the part of the Brit
ish minister to tell us so. lmowthat there
thin difference of public opinion at home, on
the subject of th e policy referral to ; but it
is a t differeitee *limb we can settle at home
amongst qpirselvei, and, all th e b etter an d
so oner ,without Obtrusive, unsought advice
from abroad. Our southern brethren do not
all of them agree with us od the subject of
this policy but duly ,will agree with Die
ihat it is a domestic
,concerni • and tO be set
dent home by' our awn -Congreul, in such
manner as shall, best comport ,with the in
terests of all:'; When England, though her
statesmen, int a, manner far Tess offensive, in
asmuch as it was said of us and not to us,
has denounced the institution of Slavery as a
stain upon out national escutcheon which
ought to exclude us frein the community of
civilized nations, nortbem". men as l weil as
southern men have , expressed their indignant
disgust at the cant of those who denounce na
;far the tolerance of that which was inbieted ,
on us in the beginning by 'British cupidity.,
I am opposed to slavery—deeply, conscien
tiously, and forever opposid ; but, sir, en-'
tertaining an opinion hostileto slavery, I shall J
never so act as -to give cause of offence to the I
citizens oLthe ,S:ate* in which the institu
tion exists, in which it I is :,protected by the
Constitution • and while urn opposed and
conscientiously opposed to slavery, I wish to
hear no English denunciations of my Court
try, nor 'any' part of it, *Aro this account or
any other. -And what would our southern,
hrethem say if this same Sir Henry Lytton
Butiver should d conceive it to be his duty to
,
Pell us whatjthe public Opinion " of Eng
land' is relative to the. institution of slavery ?
' I leave it to them to answer.
This same ambassador 'Seems to have a
peculiar penchant for offering hisradvice to
the Governments to which he happens to be
accredited. Bin a little more than two years ,
since, when minister to Spain, he volunteered I
to tell the Queen what England thought her
policy ought to be in relation to the domes-
tic management of the internal eSsits of
Spain. The correspondenee w'oich took place
between the Duke of Sottimayar, the Prime
Minister, So to speak, of- Spain, and Lord
Palmerston, on the subj&t, is fresh in the
memory of all. One would have thought that
he might have profited by:: the lesson which
was taught him men ; but it seems that he
regards Englandjas so far in advance o' all;
other nations, in power and in wisdom, that J
they. will - be obliged for such hints and sug- 1
gesuons its may emanatO . roin her ambassa
dors, wherever they marchan'ce to reside.
Now, for, my part, I da not thank him for I
the sugg es tion m relatfon to our domestic
policy, and the Administration will not thank
him, I trust. But a little while since, it will
be recollected , that, in a case not entirely dis
similar, when, the ,ornbassador of another
-power quite as respectable as that of England,
and 'to whom we owe fatinore than we owe
to England of friendship and of courtesy,
'undertook to tell the national Executive or
this country what was due to its honor, and
what was due to justice on his part, his:
passports were furnished , ' him by the Presi-
'dent of the United States - i - aud he has left out'.
shores for his home, thereto account for his
interference, not with a l .matter of domestic
policy, but for volunteering advice as to what
was compatible with hOnor and justice on ,
the part of the country to which he was ac.
credited. In this case the Executive did right,
and I have no doubt that Sir Henry Lytton
Bulwer has already been informed by the
President ofthe United States, that his advice
is unsought for, in language equivalent to that
which he used to Monsieur - de Tocqueville,
I the Prime Minister or, Minister of Foreign
Affairs of France.
,
I Sir, lam willing to trust the honor of this
Government to him in whose hands the
people have placed it, He -will do all that
as necessary for its vindication ; but I thought
that it was but right thnt this department of
the Government, the li.islative department
of the Government, equally concerned in all
that relates to the honor of the country,
onight speak , its sentiments in reference to
(this matter r ,and if thehumblest member of
this body felt called upen, by the relation
' which he bears to the, particular subject to
which reference is made, to speak, the 're
buke will befall the more severe.
It was in order to submit these remarks
that I made ,the motion to refer, to the sub
ject embra'ced in the President's message and
correspondence to the Committee on Com
merce, and i 4
_there be not a reply intended,
I - will - now withdraw it.
