Mr.. BURT, (the chairman of the committee, J
who made the majority report, called for the read
ing of the resolutions appended to his report on
the subject. These being reported to the House
from the Clerk 8 desk, aa#
Mr. B. announced that he entertained no design
of going into the merits OF the at this time. Al
present, he was willing that the case should 60
to the country, so far as he concerned, on the
argument embraced in his report He desired at
this time merely to correct the many misrepresen-
tations of those writing for the press from the
House, who had flooded the country with injuri-
GUS reports concerning the facts in the case He
trusted that these misrepresentation were unin-
territorial; but, whether so or not, they were GER
tainly injurious. 1t was necessary, under the
circumstances therefore, that he should state that
the determinations to which the majority of the
committee had come, as expressed i'll their resolu-
tons, were drawn FROM and wholly based on, the
testimony which was embraced in the report. In
presenting that testimony, as in drawing conclu-
sions from il in the resolutions, the majority had
acted with great deliberation, and only after due
examination in spirit of perfect fairness-being
determined to do justice, and nothing but justice.
He would not now essay TO make an argument
upon the merits of the case. He would postpone
that duty to the time when it would be his place
to close the debate. Then he would reply to the
adverse arguments to be adduced in the course OF
the discussion. He had only further to add, that
his examinations and replcations upon the case,
occurring subsequent to making his report, had
his resolutions were in all respect justified by the
circumstances, and proven to be enacted.
The debate was further continued by Messrs.
TooMBs, Books, and others. After which the
House adjourned.

In HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE.

On the meeting of the House, Mr.. TooMBs rose
to move to take up the special order--the reports
Of the select committee on the Galphin CASE
when
The SPEAKER stated that the motion of the
gentleman f.om New York, (Mr. P. KING,) to
postpone that special order for two weeks from
Monday next, had precedence Of the motion OF
the gentleman from Georgia, as that was pending
on Saturday when the House adjourned.
Mr.. BURT withdrew his motion to amend
that proposition by introducing "until'' Monday
next, in lieu of "until two weeks from Tuesday
next the adjournment on Saturday having rem
dered that announcement unnecessary.
Mr. BAYLEY moved to amend the motion OF
the gentleman from New York, (Mr P. KING
by striking out the words 'until two weeks
from Tuesday next" and substituting for them
the words, "unt tomorrow"
Messrs. TOOMBS and BURT consecutively ex
pressed themselves satisfied with the amendment
of the gentleman from Virginia, [Mr. BAYLEY.l
Mr.. BURT called for the yeas and nays on
that motion to amend which being ordered, it
was agreed to yeas l05, nays 10.
Mr.. EVANS, Of Maryland, declined voting on
this roll call, having paired off with Mr.. HoAG-
LAND.
The SPEAKER next announced the question
on the amended resolusion-whcn
Mr.. POTTER moved that it be laid on the Ia
Bile,
that motion, if it prevailed, would be to lay the
whole subject on the table.
Mr.. POTTER remarked that he would with
draw it; his purpose Icing simply to get it before
the House this morning.
|. The SPEAKER, in reply, stated that that
could best be accomplished by refusing to agree
to the amended resolution.
The question again being on agreeing to the
amended resolution,
Mr.. TONES demanded the yeas and nays
upon it.
Several members) ooh, no! oh, no."
Mr.. T. withdrew the demand for the yeas and
nays.
Mr.. BURT renewed it; but, at the solicitation
OF gentlemen around him, he, too, withdrew it.
Mr.. GENTRY moved to lay the whole subject
on the table.
Mr.. TOoMBs appealed to him to withdraw
that notion which being done,
Mr.. DOTY renewed it, and the yeas and nays
upon it being called and ordered, it was not
agreed to-yeas %, nays 1877.
So the House refusing to lay the Galphin re-
ports on the table, the question REQUIRED or
agreeing to the amended motion.
Mr.. PRESTON KING asked the yeas and
nays, which were not ordered and then the said
amended motion was not agreed to.
The Galphin case reports being then before the
House,

States, then let them remember the immense value
of the Union to them, and beware how thew goad
the Southern States into sense Of the necessity of
"resuming the powers" which have been con-
ferred on the Union, and (which have been "per-
verted to their injury and oppression" Let them
beware, and God grantlthey may pause before it
is too late. IN
In response TO loud call by the audience, MIR.
Robert G. Scott supported these resolutions in u
speech Of great power and effect.
Mr.. Thomas Richie, Jr., moved the following
a substitute for the resolutions offered by Mr..
Patton .9J.
ReSoLred, That the slavery question is one OF
principle, and not of party.
Resoired, That this meeting recommend a meet
ing Of all parties, to be held one week after the
disposition of the Compromise bill in the Senate
of the United States
This motion having been discussed by Messrs.
Thomas Richie, William Wallace, and p. V.
Daniel, the vote was taken on it, and the substi-
tute rejected
The vote was then taken on the resolutions
offered by Mr.. Patton, and they were unanimousL,
adopted by the meeting
1t was moved by Mr.. Scott that one copy should
be sent to each Of the Senators Of Virginia, and
one to the Representative from this district and
one copy also to each Of the political newspapers
published in this city.
On motion of Mr., Wallace the meeting then
adjourned.

IfTexas attempts to send an armed force into
New Mexico, for the purpose of seizing the ter
ritory of the United Suites, under pretension OF
title. and of driving off the United States troops,
il will be sterny rebuked. Gen. Taylor has made
no threat He has recommended forbearance,
and directed the military officers not to interfere
There are duties, however, which an armed de-
monstration on the part of Texas would call into
reouisilion, and the President is not the man to
shrink from any obligation which his oath OF OF
fee enjons.--Cor. Phil North american.
The correspondent of the North Ameri-
can speaks by authority. 1t is perfectly
natural for President who undertakes, by
his underlings, to make sovereign States, to
have such contempt for them as to think
that he has right to rebuke them. If a
President can set up State like New Mexi-
co without Congress, why can he not put
down one like Texas without Congresss

THE SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER:
This article Of home manufa cture should
also command liberal amount of home con-
sumption for, under the auspices Of John X.
Thompson, it has been made to equal
Blackwood, in the variety and interest of its
contents. 1t spreads literary table-a
feast of intellect-at which all may sit
down, and all tastes be promptly grati6ed
From gay to grave, from lively to severe
this Messenger speeds, and the messages
brought back are such as to gain the ear and
rvet the attention of those who expect its
monthly calls,
The North has enjoyed the monopoly Of
literary production, or of publication at least,
too long; for many Of the brightest gems OF
song, and many Of the strongest utterances
in prose have been drawn from the South,
that they might have their setting at the
North.
Blessed as the South has been with ge-
MUS and talent Of the highest order, and
possessing as she does among her sons many
who could worthily illustrate her historic
and literary annals, she yet has Hitherto
done little in those fields Of labor; for while

roUR DAYS LATER FROM ENGLAND.

The United States mail steamer Pacific, Capt
Nye, left Liverpool OH the afternoon of Wednes.
day the 18th ult. was boarded west of Halifax
by schooner and the intelligence which we give
below has been telegraphed to the associated
press.
We cannot learn, satisfactorily, the precise time
the Pacific was boarded, but we are led to believe
she will arrive here this evening.
The Pacific encountered heavy westerly weather
for three days after she left Liverpool.
The political news from England is of consider
able importance. After repeated efforts of Lord
Palmerston to arrange the Greek difficulty with
France, and after repeated postponements in the
British Parliament, the question was finally
brought up, and the Ministry defeated.
Their resignation, in consequence Of this defeat,
was hourly expected.
Later advices from India are received, and are
unfavorabe in a commercial point Of view
The commercial intelligence from China was
not regarded as favorable.
The commercial news from England is reported
as favorable.
u. s. stocks are firm at the last quotations
Consols on the 18th were quoted at $50 So for
account, shut.
The Liverpool cotton market was firm at the
last quotations. The sales on Saturday, the 5th,

THE THIRD ANNUAL VOLUME
SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE,

Was commenced on Saturday, the 4th of May,
1850, under its original name-lnstead OF Richards

character it being the only weekly organ OF Litera-
ture in the entire South! 1t Is
Greatly Enlarged and Improved,
Containing weekly Thirty-two Columns Of

Entirely .Ns,o Dress

paper so that, in mechanical excellence, 1t is not
surpassed by any paper whatever in the United
States! 1t continues under the same Editorial
direction as heretofore, and no pains or expense
will be spared to make 1t
"A Choice Family Newspaper,
Gas cheap as the cheapest, and as good as the
best!' Utterly discarding the notion that a
Southern journal cannot compete with the North
ern weeklies, in cheapness and interest,
The Southern Literary Gazette a..
rivals the hest of them in all the characteristics of
n truly valuable Preside Journal. Its aim is the
diffusion of cultivated and refined taste throughout
The communicated it embraces in its ample
folds ever species Of intelligence that can tend to
this result.
Original Contributions,
from many of the ablest writers in the South,
chiefly occupy its columns but not to the exclu

The tone Of the Gazette is independent in
criticism and in the discussion OF every legitimate
topic, but it is strictly
Neutral in Politics and Religion
Its columns are occasionally embellished with
Southern, Portraits and Landscapes,
engraved expressly for the work, and accompa-

the demands Of reading public as numer-

Why this state of things should exist, or
should continue, we are at loss to divine
there is no good reason for it !; and its i'm
policy is obvious. "Give me-" said saga
cious statesman, " the making Of the songs Of
people, and care not who makes their
laws" And there was wisdom in the APP
parenty frivolous remark; for the minds of
people are moulded by the literature which
is their intellectual pabulum, and that of
their children.
II the Southern people owe it to them
selves to pasronize their own periodicals,
they are unfortunately SO few thatt the duty
will neither be very difficult, nor very
expensive one. .aaa. a

SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER, which
we commend to the consideration of all our
friends, who patronize Lady's Books, with
fashion plates, and poetry, and pressing to
match: ...'-'
We could wish that one member ofthe Messenger
were placed in the hands of every Virginian and
Southern man by whom it is not now taken. The
number might be selected at random, and we
would. engage that it would plead its own cause
more effectually than any argument or persuasion
that could be used by its friends. There seems
to be an impression among Southerners that
nothing in the way Of literature worth reading
be produced in the South; at least such is the
language Of their conduct. The books and maya
zines of the North elbow Southern productions
out of Southern libraries and drawing rooms. A
sterling PERIODICAL Astounding with the true gold
oflierature like the Southern Literary Messenger
is too often made to give place to some " fiction
book, only capable of entertaining the tickle eye
and shallow brains of the merely fashionable
heads of the large cities.

PROSPECTUS OF A NEW SERIES OF
Thy Southern Quarterly Review.

COMMENCED ON THE lsT OF Arm, 1850, By
WALKER e. RICHARDS, Pr0prieiors & Publishers.
lEkMS-S5.oO per annum, payable in adj
vance.
The publishers of the SOUTHERN QUARTERLY
REVIEW beg leave to entreat the attention of the
pubic to that Work, to return thanks for the in
variable indulgence which has smiled upon its
progress hitherto, and to express the hone that
this countenance will not be Withdrawn, now that
the publication, passing from the hands of the
former publisher into their own, makes, as it
were, a fresh start in the pursuit Of well known
PROCESS. They cannot allow themselves to doubt
that-with all their former contributors, with the
addition OF many new snes, not less valuable and
Observation-Disclosures the conduct still Of Mr.. w.
GILMORE SIMMs, its sole Editor during the past
| year-and with the assurance which the subscri-
bers now beg leave TO give, that the work will be
henceforward issued in style very superior to
that OF the past, on better paper, with a fine new
type, and with regard to neatness and finish,
which will leave it second to none in the country
they will continue to receive that patronage which
thsir own endeavor and the claims of such an or
gan seem reasonably to demand.
The writer's for the REVIEW include the greater
number Of the best and ablest names of the
country. They represent the highest literary
talent of the South, and reflect truly, with a ma
tive earnestness, force, and fidelity the real pol
icy and the peculiar institutions of our section.
We entreat the people of the South, who feel
the importance of such periodical as the Review,
to excuse its Deficiencies, and generously lend
themselves to its assistance. With their counte-
nance and concurrence, it can become the estab-
lished organ Of domestic opinion--the champion
of our rights and character abroad-the guide and
counsel to intellectual progress and proper taste
at home-the arena in which the better minds of
the country may always distinguish themselves,
and find the proper prOvocatioh to execution and
performance-the wholesome authority to which
we may always turn for the correction and
straint of crude and undigested speculation. These
are all objects of the last necessity to civilized
people, who have anything to gain by enterprise,
or any thing to lose by remissness and indiffer-
ence Once more, we ask from the patrons of the
Review, indulgence for the past, and such sym
pathy and support for the future, due to the
vital interests which it faithfully serves, and the
| character which it seeks to establish.
