The 1arG.-The following lines from the New
York Commercial Advertiser confirm the rumor afioat
of probable early adjustment of all commercial diff
hculties with England, upon basis. The Ian
guagt ofthe Advertiser is unequvocal and would not
have been used without the Of
Information. The superseding Of The Tariff by the
means mentioned, the overthrow Of system estab-
lished by Congress, by Of the exercise of the
Treaty making power, vested in the President and
Senate, should it be actually done, attempted,
would set tho whole country in a blaze We are not
prepared to express any opinion, but it US at
the first blush, that the nfraction of Ia,o of Con.
gress direct indirect cannot be within the con-
,ettutional scope of the Treaty making power The
Commercial says
"Suppose for instance, that Mr.. BPLane, our new
ly appointed Minister, should 90 out armed with in
structions to negotiate away the Tariff. Such pro.
Ject, we have reason to know has been under delbe
ration by the Executives and legal advice we have
reason TO believe, lus been taken, to the extent
with which the treaty making power will warrant the
executive IN negotiating away the acts of Congress
The British Minister, also given To under
stand has been consulted, to the probable DISPOSE
ton OF his government to relax their laws IN ia
OF the United States, upon condition that all descrip
lions OF their manufactures shall be admitted into the
ports of the United States, under moderate uniform
duty to be reciprocal between the two nations His
answer favorable but whether Mr.. M'Lane will
finally goout with such instructions, we cannot tell
Certain IS, that the project has been seriously
tertaned, and IL is therefore possible that those who
SUITE. from the operation of the Tariff. may find
relief without waiting for the ardy and doubtful pro-
cess of legislation"
a liberal Proposition.-The Editor of the elite
rary Subatern says he not in the habit of betting
but should any feel disposition to hazard $4,000
or less, he can be accommodated by friend of ours
IN saw hn will tl,ot
sum or any less amount that Henry Clay will be the
next President of the U. States" Another bet of
$1,000 is offered. that Clays majority of electoral
votes will be 100" The first bet is we should iudpe
very safe one, for opinion setting rresisbly
that way.

riosity to the horrible disclosure foreod in the fol-

An affair occurred in this town. within few ia VS.
which in all human probability will lead to de-
noueulent, which will mpcate individuals in one of
the most outrageous and infamous conspiraces that
ever disgraced the character of man. individuals
are ssId to be involved in it, who have heretofore
been looked upon men entitled to respect, conf
dence, and veneration. We throw out these
damnaoie inuendoes' not from a disposition 10 give
rise TO Unnecessary gossip and curious specuations.
1t is probable, that the lapse Of few days will
bring things TO light, and expose of the blacklist
deeds that human depravity could conceive. For
the credit of the character of the town, hope that
public expectation tnay not he realised.

1T Mr.. Wickhfe has been acquitted for the hon.
cide Of Benning The particulars of the trial have
reached u.s. farther than that the Jury was alb
sent but fifteen minutes. Mr.. Clay was of counsel
for Wickae. To such lengths do the fears and rage
of the less liberal Of the Jacksonians transport them
against Mr. Clay that anticipate his denunciation
for appearing counsel for the Defendant. Nay,

These gentlemen would be well pleased if Mr.. Clay
