A tremendous conflict is gong in New Hamp- shire between the democratic party side, and a coalition of wings and abolitonists upon the other The struggle is iOr the election of a member of Con gress, by general ticket, l the vacancy caused by the failure to elect al the regular elecion Tine dem ocratic party dropped from their ticket and dscard- ed from their nfiIence, Jso. P. HALE, who after being instructed by his constituents to for the annexation of TEXAS voted against annexation, and justified il by employing the arguments of the aboli- tionists agaInst slavery. Dropped from the demo- cratic ticket, he started 'sndependent candi- date" and succ"eded a obtaining sufficient num- Der of votes to defeat the election of Mir. WooDBU- RY, who had been nominated on the democratic lick ct in his place. For that vacancy another election
 is to be he Id, and Mir. HALE is canvassing the State seeking the united support of the whigs and abol- tionsts upon the issue declared m the first meet ing Exeter the 2lst ult. whether the democrat ic Senators and Representatives who voted for an- nexaton are to be sustained repudialed by the people of New Hampshire.
 Ills speech, as described by n correspondent from Exeter in the Boston Satesman was full bIooded anti slavery speech Of the rank character, and it juslifes the democracy for having discarded him. Such sentiments as he utiers, have no effective meaning short of separation of the Union, with the free States by themselves. The continuance of any political connexion whatever, with States which tolerate slavery, is totally incompatible with the doc trines of such men lhis Mir. HALE on the exceed. ing hurtuness of any toleration of slavery or of sociation in forms of government that tolerate it. Unionsm in such mouths IS the most transparent hypocricy. The spru which he invokes is the fell demon of disunionsm, and they who in listening to his venOmous lirades against half of the Union as "accursed,' shall he persuaded to rally with hm make this issue of the free States ainst lhe slave states, will be, whatever their success, as morally guilt, of treason to the Consultation and the Union as if with their hands they had set fire 10 the tenn pie of liberty.
 One or two 'conservati,es,' once democrats, de srrters like himself, accompanying Mir. HALE in this anti-savery crusade against he democrats of he Granie State, and in courtng the union of abo- litonism wih ~higgery 10 overthrow the democratic party.
 It is a trying struggle for the New Hampshire de- mocracy, but they have gone vicoriously through fierce conflicts before, and with thorough awaken. ing to the dangers of the crIsIs, and the formidable coalition against them, they " i'll triumph gloriously again.

 It eems that the act of Congress of the third Of Marcl, 1s45, admitting Florida and Iowa into the Union did ConIain any provision Tor the trans fer of he causes pending in the superior cooris o ie Territory the district court oi Inc Uniied States created by that act. It was seriously appie hened lha if the DisiI lct court should be organ ized and put in operation before congress should have provided for the omission Il would arrest these where they are, and put them oul ol the ini ted Sratts. The government interests m litigation in FlnIi,a said 10 be immense
 Under all the circums tances, the President very udiciousy declined appoin, the officers oihe new court, un il Congress shall have an opportunity oi supplying their omission provide ior ihe transfer of the caIsts. and has thus kept the affair disem barrassct oi the cashing jurisdictions o the several tribunals md leaves the superior courts ot the Ter ritory in possession of the same powers which ihey have exercised heretofore, &c.
 We leara, furthermore, that the district attorney for faa Florida addressed letter 10 the Solicitor of the Treasury, asking instructions upon the SUD jcct; which, passing through the usual forms, has drawn forth concurrlng opinions from the Aiior- ney General and Solicitor, which have received the apprnbation of the President-hai the appoint- ments saoull not, and indeed cannot, at this tune be made.
 Since then we have understood that the Solicitor has transmitted his instructions 10 the Onied States Attorney, m which he has fully discussed the ques- tions involved; and the conclusions he came to will be readily understood. when we add that the United States Attorney was instfnc ted to pro ceed "a the for the present, AS the act for the admission of Florida into the Union had not passed
 This being matter of much public concernmenl and general interest, we do not perceive any good reason why the same should not be laid before the public, whom it most concerns. Al all events we s,a II appIy for leave 10 take and posh o"pes ot they will shortly appear in our cou'u"-.-lWash. ington Union.

FULFILMEET OF A PRoPHECY.-ln one of the letters which the senior editor of the Savannah Re- publican is writing his paper, descriptive of scenes and events his tour to Europe, Egypt, Syrla and Palestine, we find the following extract giving an account of his visit to Tyre and showing the literal fuIfnent of one of Gods prophecies:
 We arrived al Tyre early in the afternoon, and surely no place better correspond the desc ip- Iion of it. Formerly insular, i, has been connected with the main land since the conquest of Alexander the Great. and the ishmus is still narrower than the site of the town, notwithstanding the accumulation of centuries. or the ancient town not vestige re- mains. All is buried beneath the sand, and several excavations progress expose to view ihe substruc tons o ancient buildings, the piers and arches of aaueduct. &c but even these remains doubtless long posierior the of the first Tyre The pres. ent town is miserable place, full of filth and wretch edness. The only thing of interest within the walls is lhe remains of very fine church, which has been identified as the one in which Eusebius used to preach in lhe third century. Several fishing nets, spread out 10 dry. called to mind the prophecy "And will cause the noIse of th, 20 gs 10 cease, and the sound of thy harps shall be no more heard And will make thee like the top of rock, thou shalt be place to spread nets upon; thou shalt be bu lt mOre."

In MT. Wigan's very curious work upon the "Du- al,iy of .hc Brain,' the following authentic and in- terestipg anecdoie IS related of Wm Pitt.
 Never did man go near 10 destroy the intellect of his son by excitement, as that arrogant, un- reasonable, imperloas, and much over rated man, the great Earl Of Chatham, as he is called.

The great Race between Fashion and Peytona comes of, without doubt, on the 3th May instant posponement is not, has it been thought of, by the parties to the race. According to the Spirit of the Times, both horses are ready and eager for the contest, and in excellent condition. The odds. however. have changed somewhat. Some days since 1000 to 800 was freely offered upon Fashion, but at this time her friends do not appear to feel the same confidence in her success. The Spirit of the Times thinks it doubtful If 100 to 90 could be got on the northern mare, and il is very probable that before the race, betting will be the order of the day. However, it is said that the friends of both nags .'are hying back for bets." Washington correspondent olihe Times is of the opinion that a greater age and the hard usage of 'Fashion" in her races since the with ''Boston," and the addi- tonal weight which she will carry, must tell against her in the approaching contest. He thinks that if Peytona Is what she should be, she will make her first heat in 30, but sets down Fashion as doing it in not less than 35. These calculations may have good basIs, but shall what we shall see on lhe 18th. The match IS exciting the utmost degree of Interest throughout the country, m sporting cir ces, and so many rooms are even now engaged m New York for the occasion. that lhe question IS ask ed, "Whats to become of the pe0ple?"
