ST. LOUIS, Aug. II, 1850


TIE Missouri STATE observation-disclosures re-
turns have been received from the Fourth Congress
sonal District to insure the election of Charles E.
Bowman, the Wing candidate. But six counties are
to be heard FROM and the result thus far stands :
Willard P. Hail. ant-Benton democrat, 1923; J. P.
Gardenshire. Benton democrat, 3, 439; and Charles
E. Bowman, wing, 4, 794. The Republican, Of Mon
daJ, says:
1--WE publish this morning all the information in
possession in regard to the result of the
elections. 1t is conclusive to the election of Gil
christ Porter, whig in the Second Congressional Dis
trct and although the vote will be much closer in
the Third we have good reason to think that John
G. Miller is also elected, He has to gain 200
votes to secure his election. This, we think he wll
do
From the returns before US, we disposed to
concede the election of j. S. Phelps the Benton den-
ocratic candidate for the Fifth District The major
ty of the democrats in the district is large being
5000. and it will be hard to overcome.
The Fourth District is not so hopeless. and we
anticipate the election eff Bowman wing is hardly
necessary to add that look upon the election OF
Ar. Durkey, in this district, as fixed fact
So far, the wings have IL members of the House,
and Is in the Senate; the Free Sellers have elected
81 members of the House. and in the Senate, and
the nti-Bcntonites 20 of the House, and , in the

THE WILMINGTON JOURNAL.
n. c.. FRIDAY, AUGUST %. 1850
when win Congress Adjourn!


Is the question NEST frequently asked and the most
difficult to answer. Some conjecture that the adj ourn-
ment will take place about the latter end of Septem
ber others again insnuate that the thirty first Con-
gress is going to be an American edition of the Long
Parliament;; sort of Cis-Atlantic and nineteenth
century Rumpn which will stand in need of some
occidental CROMWELL to put an end to its existence.
1t is again suggested that the different factions have
become so violent in their animosity, that, having
first swallowed their mileage and per diem, they will
swallow each other. One thing is pretty certain,
this will be the longest and most expensive session
since the commencement of the government. 1t is
not at all probable that adjournment will be eff
fected before the second week in October In fact:
the business is so far behind that it is not likely to
be disposed of before then, if Nothing ac-
tually nothing, has yet been done. No bill of any
considerable Importance has received the approba-
ton of both Houses: not even the Texas boundary
BILL and although it is nearly certain to pass eventu-
ally good deal more time will probably be consul
med in its discussion And then the other bills-the
Territorial bills for Utah and New Mexico and the
bill for the admission of California how long will it
take to dispose of them And finally, the appropra-
ton bills-they too, will have to be gone through
with. By the way we might mention, in this con-
nection, mine and countcrmine which is being work
cd between the opponents of the admission of Cali
fornia and the friends of that measure. 1t has been
proposed to defeat the passage of the California bill
by preventing any vote from being taken on it, which
a minority could easily do under the rules as was
shown in the case of DORIS resolution, which was
so disposed of in March last. In such case it seems
be the plan of the friends of California admission
to do away with the rules by ovcrrung the decision
of the Speaker. right wrong and thus forcing a
vote upon the main question We anticipate stirring
times. The fugitive slave BILL presume, will pass
the Senate this week. and far that body is con-
ccrned some action will have been had upon all the
questions r iSSua

THE RALEIGH REGIsTER.-The half-witted genius,
who in the absense of its editor, renders the Regis
ter ridiculous, is down upon all creation, III the
issue of that paper of the 18th inst. The way he
pitches into our friends of the Carolnian and STAN
dard, is by no slow and he perfectly annihi-

WE'LL after ALL it is not so bad to be called Patrick
for the old song informs that Saint Patrick was
a gentleman, which shows that the Saint differed in
this respect from the ocm of the Register who
evidently is not one, he never would have indul-
ged in low and unprovoked scurrility towards one
who. whatever may be his place Of birth, has, in no
instance during his editorial career, been guilty of
abuse Or personality towards any one. But to use
the classical language Of the Register, shall bear

present occupies the editorial chair of the Register

correspondent desires to explain the origin of
the Danish war, declaring that neither himself nor
any of his acquaintance understand it. If cor
respondent had been in the habit of reading the Bull
letn regularly he would have recoected that, about
year ago. we made full statement of the causes
of this war. To oblige him, however as we'll as to
refresh our readers minds, we will briefly explain
again the origin of these hostilities.
The two southern provinces of Denmark, SleSwig
and Holstein, are chiefly populated by the German,
instead of the Scandinavian and in this respect
differ from the remainder Of Denmark. HolStein is
almost entirely inhabited by Germans and has been
annexed to Denmark at comparatively late period
of history. Seswig has a large number of Danes in
it, but is still German in its character sympathy and
population. When the revolution oflS4S broke out
and followed by the general enthusiasm through
out Germany in favor of great German nation, the
people of Sleswig and Hostein with others descen-
ded from the Teutonic stock desired TO secede from
Denmark and join the confederation In this
wish they were secretly upheld by Prussia, power
ever ready to aggrandize itself or weaken neigh
Dor. Denmark, however, protested against parting
with provinces which had been ceded to her On the
faith of treaties and prepared for war Hostilities
have continued since, with varied fortune and in
spite OF numerous efforts the part of ncishbornc
powers to make peace. Meantime both races have
become mutually exasperated against each ether
rendering their living together under one govern
ment more difficult than ever. Unless the Danes
however. are checked by Prussia the reyolted pro
vlnces will have to give in and if Prussia seriously
Interfere, Russia will probably assist Denmark

The sinrerr ancstlon in tlle Housc.


Almost every measure that went to make upthc sum
total of the renowned . Omnibus bil has been pass
ed by the Senate in separate bills and tho matter
now rests with the House What course that body
may pursue, is another matter. Unfortunately, at
the ensuing fall elections more than half the men,
bers will be subjected to the ordeal of reelection or
defeat consequently each one thinks more of my
constituency" than of the general good and does
not dare to peril his popularity in his own district
by 1cld and manly course in behalf ofthe country
This may sound harsh but alas for human nature
and political nature it is too true Many Northern
men, who see the peril and the injustice of the Will
mot proviso and kindred measures, have not moral
courage to vote against it, lest they should be de-
nounced at home and lose their seats On the other
hand, there men from the South, who would pur-
sue course better calculated to produce reconcila-
ton and harmony, were it not for brawlifg dema-
gogues in our midst, who construe moderation into
treachery to the South, and are not willing to believe
that two and two make four, unless you willing
to and baspheme to the fact, by way of giving
it emphasis.
But the most insurmountable obstacle in the way
of settlement is the mutual distrust and want of
confidence in each other which characterzes the re-
lations of Northern and Southern members. We can
didy believe that there are enough Northern men
still faithful to the constitution to enable the mem
bers from the South to obtain all which she
sonably demand, and who would act with her were
it not that certain seetonalists have built up mid
die wall of partition, by teaching the South that the
word, the pledges. the promises, of no Northern
man to be trusted upon this question-thus cut
ting her off from her most faithful allies and repel
ling her friends at the North by treating their prof
fers of service with insult and eonumely At pres
en the House unable to proceed from this feeling
of dstrust, this want of cooperation between the
friends of the constitution from both sections How
long this state of affairs will continue it is mposs
bic even to surmise There is thing certain and
We wish to give it deliberate conviction: We
can have no peace quetness. let Congress do il
may while abuse of the North is considered the cr
teron of fidelity to the South, and rice rersa.

The WING Party and the AbolItIonists.

Under this head the New York Herald has
cle in which the editor justly attributes the late
defeats of the whg party at the South to its
ton with the abolitionists. He warns them of the
fatal effects which persistence in this of
connection must produce and speaking of this State
says that they ought to learn something by expe-
rience. They have seen, within few days. one of
their strongholds wresed from them in consequence
of their identifying themselves with the reckless ad
yocates of abolition. We refer to North Carolina,
where they have suffered most ignominious defeat
where they have been cut down, as it were, in the
house of their friends The of the success of
the democrats of that State must have been great
great and paramount to induce men to forsake the
standards under which they fought and won so many
successive victories, and desert in body to the camp
of their opponents and fight against those with
whom they had been so long associated. Local mat
tiers may have Influenced their action. to certain
but slight extent but the principal reason which
induced them to take such step may be attributed
with good reason to the course pursued by many of
the leading Northern wings in Congress- in the State
Legislature, in the press and at their public meet
ings. North Carolina became frightened, and the
democratic party throughout the country being in
the main sound the question of slavery, they
sought protection from them in preference to fight
ing on the same side with Seward and others like
him"
