TnERE IS COMPROMISE brewing. and It will
certainly pass the Senate it may pass the
House also but, even If it should, there ,ciR Be
no Starc'y iegaiised West Of tle Rio Grandc. We
say there will be none, meaning that there is
not one chance in twenty that there will be any.
We greatly prefer that there should he no chance
OF all--not the ghost of onc---but the passage of
Compromise will only create q possibility of
extending Slavery westward of the del Norte.-
There Is just one part of the whole Union in
which Slavery has no legalzed existence yet
which it seriously threatens to invade-an that
is New Mexico east Of the Rio Grandc del
Norte. Such Is the sober truth and IL Texas
shall be shut out Of that region, there is little
danger that Slavery win gain another inch of
territory within the present limits of our Union.

Fon CALHonNIA--A letter from st. Joseph,
No., says that the rush to California, by tho
overland route, exceeds all expectation. The
cmigrants from the East, on reaching the place,
rush by thousands to the post-office in the hope
of receiving letters from friends at home and
many, when about to leave for the plains,
send back by mail to their wives, sisters or
swccthearts their Dagucrrcotypcs taken in their
uncouth travelling garbs. fo-e
SYMrArHr.-Thc New York Star learns that
the liberal people of Boston have made UP a
subscription for the destitute family of Dr. Web
ster, which has already reached $40, 900, and
the widow Of DIR. Parkman heads the list with
$500. This is kind and considcrate, and what
ever may be the final fate of DIR. Webster, it
will be consoling for him to know that his sins
have not been visited upon his unhappy family.
