MII. EVERETT'FiNTOMINATION.

It is all but certain that rthe nomination of this gen- I
theman 115 Ambassador to L.)ndon will be rejected, on the ,
&guild of the private opinic ins of Mr. E. on the subject '
of slaierY•
Theee opinions, as now freely canvassed at Washing •
ton by Senators and others, are-
-Ist. That Mr. Everett kkelieves in the right, under the
Constitution, of abolishing, • slavery in the District of Co-
lumbia and the Territorie; of the United States.
2d. That he believes in the right, under the Constitu-
tlnt , of prohibiting the intttrnal slave-trade, that is, the
tied, in slaves between the different States ; and
3d. That he believes in the right, under the Con-
stitutiov, of refining to adm it into the Union new States
that tolevate slavery—and Ithat he thinks these rights
%hould,.at a proper time, be enforced.
:Now, what have these views of the power of the
Constitution to do with the mission to England? It
1" said, in let d, that delict ..te questions ccnnected -with
the recognition of propel t y in slaves, and compensa-
tion therefore, are under discussion with that countt_,'Va
Which more° xer, it is adtied, is the focus of abol.;-
tion. What then? Is it ma:ant to say that Mr. Everett'
or any other honourable man, will be faithless to any
trust confided to him, because of certain speculative opi-
nioas he may entertain? Such a suspicion, such an im-
putation, strikes at the persontl honour of every northern
•Inan ; and yet, when did any northern man ever betray
1411 e interests or the rights• of his country?
a'
,solan Jay was, for his day, a decided abolitionist ; but
aid lie fail in ought that the most scrupulous Southern
/Oat? could have stickled for in his negotiations, with
? But yet stronger. Rufus King was, in the
-41-isst etri controversy, the champion of that opinicet
now ~''unputed as a crime to Mr. Everett, that no
•ate permitting slavery should be brought into
the Undo,:--and vet ho was afterwards sent to
„ -r•ogland, and on the question of his confirmation not
whi Tee of obi,-ction on that score was heard. Yet
1110 first and chit:fest matter confided to his charge
NN'as-the adjtistment of the compensation for slaves,
!older the Ghent treaty-,. and he only did not succeed
111 terminating the ne,-;oliation, before illness that
proved mortal compelled return home, because he in-
sisted upon the highest rate of compensation. This
"„tree negotiation w:ts afterwerds completed by Albert
kallatin, another man from the Free States, who, un-
sier instructions from the. Government at home, accepted
half a million less than Ru.!us King had asked.
n Away then, with the 13: Ise, the dishonouring impute-
-I°n, that northern men are not to be trusted with the
anterests, rights, and honour of their country. We
‘ purn it as a personal wrou,:;—we spurn it as a political
I,.tcligeity, to which no man e.c.• honour can submit, which
ao Anaerielen, .worthy ef. the vaam, can fail to resent.

If the South shall force this issue upon us, we say to
them h ill earnestnc.,ss, that they are, digging the grave

a party qu2stion—nof a tranient ques-
tion—but aborbiug all others, overreaching all others,
the one test at all our elections will be, Freedom and
the North—Slavery and the South. The result cannot
be doubtful.—New York Inquirer.

tu.om THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.--:The Journal of
Commerce has Sandwich Island dates to the 10th of
April. The United States ship Vincennes and the brig
Porpoise sailed on the sth for Columbia River. The St.
Louis, Captain French, arrived on the 6th at Mazatlan,
and was to leave in a few days'for Monteroy. The brig
Cayuga was at Mazatlan, in thirty-seven days from
Callao. American ves,els left at Calico, by the Cayu a,
United States Ships Constitution and Ydrktown ; United
States store ship Relief ; ship Emily Taylor, of Boston ;
bark Harmony, of New York.
Later Florida news have been received at Savannah.
An Indian had been captured near the Ochlawaha, who
turned out to be one of Haleck Tustenuggee's chief war-
riors. He had promised to guide the troops to Haleek's
camp, and a company of dragoons, in conjunction with
a detachment in boats, accordingly started in search of it.
The boat party returned, and reported that they found
three large camps abandoned within a day or two, the
trail leading in a southwest direction. Hopes were en-
tertained that the dragoons would be able to overtake the
Indians.
Tampico dates to the 6th inst. have been received at
New Orleans. A conducts, with $1,600,000, mostly for
England, had arrived at Tampico. Business was ex-
ceedingly dull. The schooner Tippecanoe waf seized oft'
the port on the Ist, for smuggling 100 boxes spermaceti
and a quantity of fine goods. It was said she would be
condemned.
On Saturday the nominations of Mr. Jenifer as Mi-
nister to Austria, of Mr. Todd, as Minister to Russia,
and of Gen. Wool, as successor in command of Gen.
Scott, were confirmed.—New York Inquirer.
ANOTHER BANK ROBBERY !—The Branch of the
Farmers' Bank, at Danville, Va., was entered on Sa-
turday night or Sunday, 21st or 22d instant, by reel or
false keys, and robbed of ninety-two thousand one hun-
dred and thirty five dollars. As, however, this occurred
in the State of Virginia, where they have great theoretical
abheirence of banks and bank notes, but nevertheless
have no other currency, and that irredeemal the robbers
only • got " rags and lamp-black." Even these, to the
amount of 72,000 dollars, were of notes that had been
cancelled, and so stamped on the face of them. The
balance of 20,000 dollars was in other notes of the insti-
tution. A reward of 5,000 dollars is offered for the re-
covery of the money.

The sales at the Board to-day were quite limited, and
in sorne.descriptions an improvement was manifest. Be-
tween thirteen and fourteen•hundred shares U. S. Bank
were sold, closing at 106, an improvement of 1 per cent.;
Harlem went up 1* per cent., Long Island -11,-, Auburn
and Syracuse Boston and Providence New Jersey
; Paterson fell off -4.
The sales of State Stocks wet% Illinois Sixes, 1870, at
55 ; Indiana Bonds at 55.

We understand that the Merchants' Bank having de-
clined giving security for the Government Deposits,
they have been transferred to the Bank of Commerce
The Merchants' Bank refused to give security before it
was appointed the depository. The appointment was a
very popular one in the street, and it is to be regretted
that circumstances should require its cancelment.
The Cotton Market has been very quiet to-day, and
we hear of no sales worthy of notice. The Flour Mar-
ket is very heavy, and although holders in the face of
receipts to the extent of 20,000 barrels in two days are
generally firm, yet there are indications of a decline to
some extent before large sales can be effected. The ar-
rivals are principally of Genesee.
In the main features of the money market we have no
alteration to advise ; capital is abundant for good paper
both at ,the banks and in the street. The prospects in-
deed for mercantile enterprise generally are highly en-
couraging, and clouded only by an apprehension of dis-
tress arising among our foreign customers through a de
fiCient harvest. The fall sales of dry goods promise to be
heavy and at good prices, and there are already here a
larger number of country dealers than we have had for
two years past.
Fancy Stocks or Stocks not paying dividends, are gra-
dually becoming more depressed. whilst State and City
Stocks are increasing in favour, and evidently attracting
large investments of money.
United States Bank notes are at 30 per cent. discount.

Specie continues abundant, our supplies and ship-
ments being about to the same amount, which will pro-
bably continue to be the case as long as our Foreign Ex-
changes remain as near at par as they are at present.
We regret to learn that the Government deposits
have necessarily been withdrawn from the Merchants'
Bank of this city, because that institution very naturally
refused to give the security which the law compelled
the Secretary of the Treasury to require_ We would
not insinuate that the Bank of Commerce is a less safe
depository, far from it, but only that the former from its
long standing, and the high station it holds in the public
estimation, would have been generally considered
preferable.
