F DE BAUN has received per the Neo- sg {. sho, his expected supply of
 DIRK GcoDs AlvD GROCERIES, direct from New York, which he is prepared to sell, wholesale and retail, for cash, cotton, hides and peltries.

home, for the purpose Of having treaty
ratified which was made by them. The

In consequence of hoslilities ha, ing cea'

mics. we deem it fitting to state. that at the
presenttime further emigration to that coun-
try of any other emigranls. but those in.
tending to settle down as cultivators of the

THE IAkBOR BILLS.

1t will have been seen by yesterdays
Globe, that these bills have at last got
through the House by large vote, after
being subjected to the slare off system to
the utmost extent. The House was oblig-
ed to resort to the previous question again
and again, to get them through.
We were mistaken in supposing that
Mr.. Bell had, after Withdrawing his mo,
ton to strike out the enacting clause OF,
one of these bills. and making six hours,
speech out of it, lodged the vote on the finai
question He made his harapgue on one
bill, and lodged the vote on the other
Our mistake originated in supposing thai
both the harbor bills were one. When
the bill came up in the, House. upon which
Mr. B. made his qeifhdrascn motion 70
strike .ou, the enacting clause, he renewed
| the motion, and got only SO votes for it.
Mr.. Patton, also, we understand, renewed
| it, and withdrew it also: and upen renew
| ing II t,again, got SO votes for it. Upon
the final passage of one of the bills, MIR
BELL did not vote He did vote, however'
on the bill on which he had made his pro
crastinaaing speech.

On the 10th Of December, 1885, cer-
tain resolutions which had been passed by
the Senate were submitted to the House
G Commons for, adoption OF rejection.
The only one material to the enquiry, is
1.-THE fifih-it is as follows
..Resalued, That although by the Con-
stitution, all Legislative power over the
District of Columbia, is vested in the Con
gress OF the United States. yet we would
depreca.e any Legislative action on the
part of that body towards liberating the
Slaves Of that District, as breach Of faith
towards those States, by whom the Ter
ritory was originally ceded, and would
regard such interference, as the first stel
towards a general emancipation of the
slaves Of the South'
Gen Dudley voted. (See Journal, age
l79) How, then, with full knowledge
| of this fact, can he have the effrontery
seriously to bring charges against an in
dividuai, which, if true, would equally
implicate himself The resolution does
not, pretend to deny to Congress the Con-
stiiutiomal power to interfere with slavery
in the District. The Vice President in
his letter, goes no further-he admits the
right, but considers the exercise of j,
dangerous and impoli,ic YET, this letter,
according to Gen. Dudleys speeches and
the presses which support him, proves
conclusively MIR. Van Buren to be an abo.

General believed last winter what he now

why did he not introduce resolution ex

subjectq Why did he not at that time
when the excitement on this delicate ques
ton was yet alive, meet the crisis and de.

gress has no Constitutional power over the
matter We ask. why? AS it is. we be-
