TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE,
TeIegraphae sum mary.

According to our information from Washington,
an ominous calm seems to hang over the capital.
1t seems that no hopes are entertained of Mr.
Foote'S movement being successful, but we shall
know more in the coarse of the day. II is quite
natural that there should be calm after the deli
very of such sentiments from representative from
New England, as those that were delivered by Mr..
Webster on Thursday last 1t will be well if this
calm do not result in reaction, of which, indeed,
there seems to be some likelihood. This should
not be allowed. The country at large, and parti-
cularly New York and New England, and espe-
cially The commercial interests of those regions,
should support Mr.. Webster in the stand which he
has taken, lest such reaction should take place,
and deeper and greater excitement be the result.
The press of Boston and of New York should move
at once in this matter Nothing Is to be expected
from the ultra whig press. They appear to be pre-
paring to oppose Mr.. Webster, and very likely
there will be rumpus in the whig party on that
ground. AS yet, the slavery question has not made
much havoc in the wing ranks, but the time is
approaching, unless the movement Is stopped by
the independent masses and Independent press,
when division similar to that which exists among
the democracy, will occur among the wings

FOREIGN Missions AND FOREIGN MUsIC.-One
of our contemporaries, somewhat more amiabe
than usual, states that Mr.. Gordon Bennett, editor
of the Herald, Is not seeking after the mission to
Vienna-that not being the object of his ambition;
but that he looking with intense eye upon the
mission to France, with the prospect Of entering
the Eiystes Bourbon. As we have some slight ac-
quaintance with the editor, and occasionally look
at the columns of the Herald, we may well cor
rect the amable mistakes OF our contemporary, be-
fore they have gone the rounds Of the press,
In pretty much the style that the story of the
three crows went through various editions.
Mr.. Bennett has not been seeking for the mission
10 Vienna, nor for the mission TO France, nor for a
mission TO any particular country; and that for the
best of all reasons. He has already received an
offer OF an appointment on a general and comprc.
hensive mission to all these countries and capitals,
from quarer which has as much influence on
these movements, as the cabinet at Washington.
He is now considering whe ther he will accept the
appointment TO this mission all over Europe, on his
own hook, and at his own expense, for the purpose
of tracing out the character and direction of those
elements that have been put in motion during the
recent volcanic eruptlons of society and govern
ment all over the old continent. Three or four
years ago-a few months before the late eruptions
ioek place-he travelled over that continent noted
the condition Of society, government, religion, and
the tendency Of things in general, and predicted
almost what we have recently seen. He now
wishes to take another tramp over the same ground,
and to ascertain from personal inspection, what is
be the course and character Of coming events,
growing out Of the terrible eruptions and singular
convulsions and vibrations of public institutions
and popular liberty.
This is the appointment which has been offered
| HIM by one who has considerable control over his
destiny, and he Is now celebrating whether he
will accept il this year or the next. The only OBJ
stacle in ms way, at present, is the slavery agitation
| IN Congress, and the dangers with which the Union
is peed by fanatics and philosophers of the North,
and the excitable and chivarous people of theSouth.
He wishes this great question settled before he
leaves this country on any foreign mission, or for
any foreign purpose, and he will endeavorto aid in
/ bringing about settlement before he leaves these
shores. II, however, the question at Washington
is incurable, and the agitation must 20 on to dis
union civil war, and the destruction Of all that Is
grand and noble this great confederacy, he also
wishes TO be there, to save piece Of thus same
Union for his cabinet of curiosies, TO transmit to
| posieriiy. That's all.
