TELEGRapHlC INTELLIGENCE.
Summary.

most provoking and unfortunate accident
took place last evening, TO the wires of the
southern telegraphic line, which caused the
suspension of operations for the night. We had
made arrangements with our congressional re-
porters for comprehensive report OF the speech
of Mr. Webster, delivered in the Senate yester-
day, on the ten regiment bill, which report was
placed IN the hands of the teegraphc operator
at Washington, and was in progress OF transmits
sion, when, from some unexplained cause, the
lightning ceased to flash. From the portions OF
the speech which came through, we see that Mr.
Webster opposes the passage OF the ten regiment
BILL with pretty much the same arguments as
those used by Mr.. Calhoun, and he begins his
speech with compliment to the talents and wis
dom of the Senator from South Carolina. The
speech of Mr.. Webster, in extenso, will be re-
ceived tonight by mail, and will be published
in to-morrow's Herald.
Previous to the taking up Of the ten regiment
Mr. Badger, of North Carolina, gave notice
thsihe would to- day introduce bill to define
rheintent and meaning of the law governing the
franking privilege. Mr. Clark of Rhode Island,
called up a resolution asking information of the
President in relation to a certain despatch which
was directed to the Consul, at Monterey, Cali
fornia, and which had been destroyed before
reaching Vera Cruz. The usual discretionary
clause, "if not inconsistent with the public SER
vice." was appended, and the resolution passed
Mr. Niles introduced resolution, calling on the
President for the correspondence between Mr..
Bancroft and the British government on the in
ternational postal arrangements, which was
adopted. Our reports of the proceedings in the
House of Representatives are also incomplete,
in consequence of the accident above mentioned.
The other telegraphic wires were on their
posts, as usual, and performed the duties as
signed them with the results below.
