Much speculation was indulged in Wash ington city at the latest accounts, as to the reason why the treaty of annexation was de- layed so long from the Senate The sugges- ton of our correspondent, that the delay is induced by the absence from the Capital of several Southern Senators, is probably the true explanation; though another correspon- dent writes us that the time required for CO., pying the documents intended to be trans mitted to the Senate in connection with the treaty, is the sole reason why the treaty is not sent in. The National EatcHgencer in- lers from the tardiness of the movement, the incubation of some new and desperate plot perhaps the s.springingn of the question on both Houses of Congress instead of on but one! Possibly this is. the case. Indeed, we have little doubt that if it appear improbable that the Senate will ratify the treaty, that an act of legislation will be introduced to the same end. We have no doubt of the com- potency of Congress, with the assent of Texas, to receive her into the Union, or to establish a territorial Government over her, which will probably be the better plan

In debate in the British House of Com m6ns en-the 8th of. March, on a motion 10 bring i'll bill for the reduction of the sugar duty, Sir ROBERT PEEL stated that it had been determined by the Government, as a last resort to put an end to the slave trade, 10 establish with British ressels C complete block ade of ufe coast of y4frica. He also stated, more definitely than ill the debate on the same subject last summer, that proposals had been made to the Government of the Brazils to commence some plan of gradual emancipa- tion, and that I reduction of the duties in British ports on Brazilian sugar and coffee had been offered as an inducement If these terms were not accepted, the duty would be continued. The motion to bring in a bill was lost-that is, Sir R. was sustained-by a large majority. ,E O. Bulletin

 The Telegraph was silent as 10 Sabnus' speech, and the Wings, when met in the street. could not be induced to venture an opinion; but in private conversation learn the views of some, in substance as | have stated
 The ReUerend pr. James II. Walker has delivered couple of speeches before the club. One was verbatim with that delivered before the Wing Convention, which circumstance is an evidence of the poverty and baseness of his mind. The other was in keeping with his former efforts i'll the rostrum; being a compound ofaneedote, slang, and abuse, with such an admixture ofyulgarity, that my sense of decency and aversion to obscenitv forbid me from commenting upon 1t. But it was the right kind of pill for the Wings, they swallowed il without grimace.
 But the most ridiculous and puerile effort in the way of oratory before the club, has yet to be spoken of-the speech of .Mr. Clag an ltinerant schoolmaster, who professes to be nephew O. Hemy's, but, alas,
 low vain without the merits the name.o ft would be impossible for me to give you far description of his speech; for must can didly confess 1t excelIed all l ever have heard for hyperbolical assertions, and wholesale de- nunciation and vile abuse of prominent Dem ocrats.
