Telegraphic Summary.
There was no business of any importance trans
acted in the House of Representatives, at Wash
ington, yesterday. The members were engaged
with the convention with Brazil, and the expsol-
ency Of granting money to pay for clerk hire In
the Department of the Interior.
The Senate was occupied in presenting resolu-
tons from the Legislature Of Mississippi, on the
subject OF slavery, and IN debating Mr.. Bradbury's
resolution in relation to removals from Office by
the present administration, which we referred to
yesterday. So far, at all events, Mr.. Bradbury has
done nothing to disprove the charge of prescription
against the cabinet.
Mr. Foote defended the Nashville Convention
from a charge that was made against it, that it
was intended to be second edition OF the Hart
ford Convention.
1t appears there has been an other attempt at re-
volution in Mexico, having for its object the re-
storation OF General Santa Anna. These fmeutes-
Tor we cannot call them attempts at revolutions
will occur periodically in Mexico, for such is the
condition of the people that the intelligent classes
have nothing to think of but politics, and the
masses are so ignorant that they are easily duped
by the others, and moulded to suit their private
purposes Similar outbreaks will characterize that
country until new state of things, moral, social
and POLITICAL is brought about by the incorporation
of more of the Anglo Saxon blood with that of the
native population, than at present exists there.
The mixture of the Spanish and native races
has had much to do as any other cause In reduc.
ing Mexico TO her present unenviable position,
and yet it is nothing more than what might be ex-
pected. AS general rule, wherever pnestcraft OF
any description is tolerated, the people will be more
or less degraded but when to that is added an ad-
mixture of the quick, energetic blood Of the Anglo
Saxon, with that OF the sluggish, imbecile African
or Indian, a deterioration must in the nature of
things follow, and likewise degradation of the
people. And If the abolition fanatics had their
way we should see eventually the same state of
things in the United States for their doctrines tend
ultimately to amalgamation IN its worstform-an in
corporation of the black and white races in this
country.
The city of ST. Louis has spoken on the present
condition of the country, growing out OF the anti
slavery agitation. The people Of that city have
recently held meeting, at which, while they com,
planned of .Northern aggressions on the constitu-
ton, in relation to fugitive slaves, they advocate
compromise and harmony, and oppose the Nash
vile Convention, we suppose On the ground that
such an assemblage is not yet called for by any
exigency at present.
Next Saturday, it seems, is set apart by the As
sembly of this State for the third reading and pas
sage of bills, some forty of which, 1t is SAID, are
ying on the table, awaiting final action. Among
al. Ia, HI Uhic oh IL daa cd
to remedy some evils of glaring character
which exist in the present system, and which
are felt as grievances in this metropolis. We I'M
derstand that property owners in Wllliamsburgh
and Brooklyn are exerting themselves to the ut.
most to defeat Its passage, for they are well aware,
If it should become a law, many of the sneakIng
New York merchants, who do business in this
metropolis but reside in those places, for the pur-
pose Of avoiding taxation, would be obliged to re-
,urn to New York, as they would make but little
by remaining where they This would, Of
course, tend to depreciate the value of real estate
In those places The milhonaires of this city, ike
wise, oppose it, for it will bring to light some mll-
lions of dollars worth of personal property,
which ought TO pay its share of the general
expenses, as wel.a real estate, for il gets equal
protection, and needs il more. We hope that all
these influences will be OF no avail, and that both
branches Of the Legislature will discharge their
duty, in regard to this bill, without fear or favor
We can tell the New York city delegation that the
eyes OF this community are upon them, watching
their action in this matter, and that If they allow
the bill to slip through the fingers Of the Lee
gislsture, or to be smothered, or disposed of In
any way but by passing IL. they may as well hang
mp their fiddles, as far as politics or honorable
Office is concerned, hereafter These are the SEN
timsnts Of the real estate owners Of New York,
and our representatives may as well know il.
