has reported bill, on the lssh inst, which Is
likely to put this vsKed question to resi-
"The Committee Of eight members Of the Sc.
nate. appointed by that body, TO report a Com
promise on the slavery question, TO be ineorpo.
rated with the laws Tor organising the territories
Of Oregon, New Mexico and California, yester.
day reported a bill which it is hoped will put
this dslraclng question for ever 81 rest. The
National lnIelligencer says that The bill propo-
ses TO establish Governments for the territories
Of Oregon, California. and New Mexico, upon
such principles Of universal justice and consli-
nlional right as il is hoped will challenge Ihe
approval Of every calm and rehecling miud.
! The bill provides a Territorial Government
for OregOH-continuing in force the laws which
have been passed by ePresentsemPOrary Gov.
ernment until the Legislature, TO be created BY
this act, shall pass other laws in conformity TO
the wishes and interests Of the people whom
they will represent.
As it regards New Mexico and California, i
provides for each Government such as tha
first given 10 the Michigan Territory; but at the
same lime resIrains those Territories from pass
ing any laws on the subject Of slavery, freedom
of religion, or imparing the right Of the United
States 10 the eunoccupiedlands. WhaIeverrighu
Of properly are to be enjoyed by persons reno
wing TO those territories, derived from the Con
stiution and Laws of The United States, are Il
be referred TO and decided by the Judicial Pow
er Of the United States, subject to an aPPea
from the Courts within the Territories 10 the Su
: preme Court Of the United States.
Hence it is apparent that the rights and claim
Of the North aud the South on the subject o
slavery are reserved; and, without giving tn
sanction Of the Unued States 10 further exIen
sion Of the territory in which slavery will be re
! cognized, the future character of those State
will depend on the character, the habits, and tn
wishes Of the people who shall hereafter iorr
: the State Constitutions for those territories.
We sincerely trust that this scheme, proceed
y ing as it undoubtedly does from the most patr
: otic motives, may put an end forever TO aque:
ton, from the agitation Of (which alone the enc
mics of our great and glorious Union derive an
r hope of succeeding in their insane purposes.

LATER FROM MEXICO.

The steam ship Palmetto, Captain ]. Smith,
arrived at New Orleans on the 7th instant from
Vera Cruz, having sailed thence on the Sd in
stant. By her the Picayune has advices from
the city of Mexico to the eth ultimo-threc
days later than had before reached us, from
which we extract the following letter:
Mexico, June q7, 1848.
The revolution which was to have broken
forth in the city Of Mexico the night oflhe 25lh,
has been deferred in consequence of the arrest Of
five of the leaders of it, and ofa discovery made
by the police of ESQ muskets which had been
secreted by several members Of the Puro party,
from the time Of the occupation of the city by
the American troops. These muskets, as we'll
as some sabres, ammunition, and clothing, were
all of American manufacture. They were
found in house that had been occupied by tn g
jockey club founded in Mexico by Major Polk
Grayson, and other distinguished officers.
| Paredes, against whom the Government de-
clares itself most violently, as well in written
documents as by its acts, is far from abandoning
his position. He has had Notifications erected
in Guanajuato, to prevent the danger of sur
prise by the Government troops, and to enable
him 10 swell the ranks of his little army. Al
present he has l9 pieces Of artillery, 800 SOL
diers, 1000 muskets, and proporIionate muni-
tons Of war.
On the other hand, Gen. Minon and Busta.
mente do not much concern themselves about
approaching Queretaro. They alege, as their
excuse, that their advance guard is continually
deserving, and that in truth they are at the mer.
cy of the officers serving under them, who have
hitherto five or six times engaged in insurrecton
for which they have been literally rewarded in.
stead of being punished, as they deserved. The
Government must be besotted indeed to place a.
ny reliance upon troops Of this character, espe'
cially after the experience which it has had.
The St. Patrick company has emancipated it
self! When the Government received the new:
of the pronunciamentO of Paredes, this compa
ny was escortng conducta Of million of spe
Gle from Queretaro to this city. When they
reached Tula, they received orders to reioin tht
Government troops stationed near Queretaro.-
Whether they were influenced by the desire o
making their fortune off hand. by stealing tn,
money in the cOnducta--of which they are very
capable-or whether through insubordinatiol
which had not before manifested itself in thei
ranks-the truth is that as soon as they receives
the order to countermarch they broke out an,
t insulted their Mexican commandant name,
r Schiafno, and were about to assassinate him
when a company of cavalry present interposed
and they all returned TO their duty again-a
least for the moment.
r Even should the Government triumph an
Paredes be compelled by force Of arms to retire
. the revolution will be far from being put down
Another, moral revolution, has commenced, {
which have before made mention. Yours, &c
