Mexican boundary Commission.

For the information Of the friends and rela-
tives Of the officers and men engaged in thi,
service, we are authorized TO state that official
letters have been received from Commissioner
Bartlett, dated Indanola, Texas, August 3lst,
from which we are glad to learn that, with few
exceptions, the party were all well.
One death had occuued--that of Richard
Sullivan, the servant Of Captain Sutherland.
Mr.. NJ W. II. Chandler, of Philadelphia,
had been detained at New Orleans by sickness.
but, being convalescent when the party left, was
expected to rejoin il before its arrival at San An
tonic.
n. T.. Worthington, Of Washington, in con
sequence Of feeble health, was compelled to re
turn.
The Commissioner joined the party at Indi-
anola on the Both ultmo. whittier they had
preceded him few days, and left for the inte-
rior the next day.

Abolition OF the Slave Trade In the District.

We consider the vote rejecting the amend
ment Of Mr.. SEWARD decisive of the determi-
nation of the Senate to tolerate no more agita-
ton upon the subject of slavery. We now
trust that this important measure will receive
the sanction of the Senate As a measure of
police regulation, it is clearly within the scope
of the powers of Congress. As measure of
general policy, its effects will be most salutary.
The slave trade in the District, insignificant as
it has been stated by Mr. BUTLER TO be, has
been invaluable to the Abolitionist. He has
used it as the temperance lecturers do the loaf
ers, as an example" The passage of this
bill will take the bullet out of his cartridge
plain Of being held responsible for what he
stigmatizes as crime committed by common
government, for whose morality these purists
consider themselves responsible.
We think that it will prove most advanta-
geous measure for the South. The slave trade
in the District is libel upon slavery. 1t pre-
sents to the foreigner, OF the non-slaveholder,
often the first, perhaps his only, view Of
that institution. 1t is relieved by no con-
trast of the comfort or content of the slave.
1t is seized and descanted upon as the daily
result of slavery, as a part Of its machinery,
indispensable to its operation. The neophyte
of abolition is pointed to the slave Jail as
miniature Bastile-" whips, racks, and scor
pions dance through his excited imagination;"
he thinks if this be the threshold Of slavery,
what must be the terrors of the interior He
sinks by in silent horror, and departs from the
District of Columbia with a soul as thankful as
if he had just escaped from the coast of Barba-
ny. His whole opinions Of slavery are formed
upon the imaginary cruelties Of the slave trade
in the District. To reason with such person
would be absurd. You could not convince him
that few of these "slave pens" as they are
iancifully termed, are necessary incident TO
the institution Of slavery, only TO be understood
by seeing it in connection with every thing
else. Nor could you convince him that there
are probably as many Of these receptacles in
the District Of Columbia with six hundred
slaves, as in Virginia with half a million But
let this perverted argument against slavery be
seen nowhere else than where it is indispensa-
Bile. The South should no more desire TO ex-
pose this penal popularity Of their institutions
to misrepresentation and to censure, than one
would choose 10 chastise a child in the drawing
room for the entertainment Of visters.

promise, he renewed the demand for the previous
question
Mr.. THOMPSON of Mississippi, moved that the
motion TO reconsider be laid upon the table.
Mr.. ASHMUN inquired whether, if the motion
to reconsider should prevail, it would be in order
Tor the gentleman from New York MIR. BaooKs)
TO move his resolution.
The SPEAKER replied. that if the motion should
prevail, the original report be open to amend
ment.
The question was then taken, and the motion to
reconsider the vote by which the report of the Com
mitee of Ways and Means was disagreed TO was
laid upon the table-yeas SO, nays 80.
Various private bills from the Senate were ap-
propriately referred.
The bill TO supply deficiencies in the pay and
mileage OF members of Congress, as returned from
the Senate, was taken up, when the amendments
were concurred in, with the exception OF the fol-
lowlng-yeas 10, nays 9S--yiz
That the mileage OF the Senators and Represen-
tatives from California and the delegate from Ore
gon, be computed according TO the most usual
travelling route within the limits of the United
States; and the per diem of said Senators and Re-
representatives. for this session shall commence from
the day on which the constitution of California was
first communicated to the two Houses of Congress
respectively"
The House then adjourned until Monday.

was defeated, the law of lS42 was passed
which gave lands to all the ne,o States without
recognising the right of the old States TO parti-
cipate, except through the temporary and preca-
rious distribution of the Treasury Under that
law and others, the lands granted to the ne,o
States and Territories, for internal improve
ment, the support of insane asylums, schools,
military grants, grants To individuals and com
panies, &C., amount TO more than thirty mil
lions of acres. An immense quantity, estima-
ted at more than fifty millions of acres, will be
required for the soldiers of the war of 1872;
millions are asked for special works of internal
improvement within the new States; and inn
mense as is the national domain, the legisa-
ton Of the next few years will bring it speed
lily to that condition when the recommended
ton of General JACKSON will be complied with,
and the "whole machinery of our land system
will be withdrawn Yet in the midst of this
profuse distribution of the domain, Virginia has
during the present session been refused public
lands to meet the grants to her revolutionary
soldiers, the territory heretofore allotted for that
purpose being insufficient! People of the South,
are the politicians of the Calhoun school prac-
teal, faithful guardians OF your interests Had
you not better confde those interests to men who
will come in and demand portion of this land
fund.- Some Of your politicians would divide
the Union for the privilege of sending slaves to
California. They will not participate in the
territory by sale and distribution of its proceeds
| of ntativ puJ 4. nI. a.,
construct your magnificent roads which you
have projected to the Mississippi and the Ohio.
You will soon recover your lost ground in the
Confederacy. Do not be deprived of your
rights by unsubstantial objections, or empty
appeals to your pride. The distribution of
the public lands is the only just method by
which they can noo be disposed of. The pre-
sent system is partial and unequal; it will be
succeeded by one of graduation and reinquish-
ment Europe will pour its squalid hordes into
the vast domain. Your own citizens will be
tempted by the inducements of cheap lands, or
exemption from taxation by annual sales of
public land Every indication proves that the
old States are to be excluded from participa-
ton. Every indication proves that the power
built up by the public lands will be adverse to
the interests of the South You can but for a
brief period have an opportunity to demand that
the public lands shall be disposed of for the
common benefit of the United States. We
hope you will press applications for your pro-
portion. You should feel no delcacy; il is
your right, not a gratuity to encourage subser-
vence, but an encouragement Of industry, a
imminent Of freedom, the aiment of national
strength.

Northern Sentiment.

We have conversed with a distinguished
member of the United States Senate, who has
Just returned from visit 10 his constituents in
one OF the New England States. He informs
us that he has never known more general re-
Jocing among men Of all parties than that which
hailed the passage OF the recent measures OF
paclhcatlon. During his whole journey, in
the course OF which he saw and conversed with
hundreds of individuals, he met with but a sim
gle person who was disposed TO denur at the
result, and that person he found TO be connected
with political abolition. As the gentleman to
whom we allude himself voted against the ON
nlbus bill IN the Senate, his testimony is that

Coast Survey.

Professor A. d. BAcHE; the Superintendent Of the
Coast Survey, has lately been in our city tour
of inspection among the parties employed upon
the eastern coast. At the instance of gentlemen of
this city, interested in commerce, who have de-
sired an immediate survey of the harbor of refuge
afforded by Richmond Island, near Cape Elizabeth,
he visited that place on Saturday last, and has
given directions to proceed with the triangulation
it. Typographical and photographed parties
will follow Immediately, and, if the weather dur
ing the fall proves favorable, all the material
cessary for complete chart of this important har
Dor will be obtained before winter sets in. A chart
will thus be furnished to navigators, some two
three years in advance of the regular operation of
the coast survey
Professor Bache visited Cape Small on Monday,
with view to early prosecution of the work of
the coast survey in that quarter, and returned TO
Washington on Tuesday morning.

Tue REcoNNofssAscg or THE MfssIssfrrI.-The
last Legislature of Louisiana appointed a commits
sion TO make surveys and collect all possible in
formation regarding levees, with instructions 10
report at the next session. The committee have
made an examination Of the bed and banks of the
Mississippi at the various points between New Or
leans and the mouth of Red river, and thence from
the source of Atchaialaya 10 the head Of Lake Eau
see Point. Among other results Of the investiga-
ton, we learn II has been asceraned that, by clear
ing away various obstructions, the Atchafalaya,
with its bayous, can readily be made to receive
and carry to the Grand Lake any desirable guam
ty of Hood waters for the relief Of the Mississippi.
II has also been discovered that If the system Of
outlets ia determined upon, the most practicable
point Tor the purpose below the Lafourchc IL al the
Bonnie Cure Creuasa. An Improvement Of the
lcvee system u recommended, by which the con
struction should have reference 10 the topography
OF the ground, so az 20 prevent one district from
being overlooked b. accident neglect in any
other. II IL proposed, finally that The building,
keeping, and repairing Of levees shall be placed
under the immediate control Of State officers

EDITORIAL AccEssIoN.-The Richmond Uhig, of
September Is, has the following announcement:
"Mr. John Scott, late of Fauquier county, hav-
ing purchased an interest in the Phig, we take
pleasure in announcing that he will hereafter be
associated with us in the editorial department.
Mr.. Scott is gentleman of education and talents,
and of genuine Wing principles"
Mr.. Scott appends 10 the announcement card,
n which he says
at is almost supcrfluous TO say, that am tho
rough Wing in all my opinions and feelings. The
principles which enter into the creed of the Wing
party are 50 well understood 10 render il unne-
cessary for me 10 do more than express my entire
concurrence in them. But there is another ques-
ton, upon which wish to say word. ] could
never consent to unite myself with any newspaper
that was not wholly and altogether with the South
upon the question Of slavery, and wholly and alto
gether against the North in its assaults upon that
institution"
The Richmond Iphg is Of those sterling
Wing journals which, under all ts editorial phases,
while preserving dignifed regard for the rights
Of the South, has ever manifested a disposition 10
unite with those who take broad just, and national
views Of government tai policy.

gresslve men of the country-the men of enter
prise and busness-the men Of invention and
creation--the men who dig in the mines, smelt
the Ores roll the iron, and manufacture the wool
lens and cottons-the men who plant the corn
and cotton, and want home markets as well as
foreign markets for their produce: these classes
and interests are TO be sacrificed and abandoned
school of mystical and hair splitting politi-
clans have interpolated in the Democratic
creed.
We believe that the interests of the whole
country are promoted by the increased produc-
tons and prosperity of particular portions. The
western railroads add to the prosperity of Mas
sachusetts. Wealth dug from the mines Of
Pennsylvania or sprlnging from the looms of
New England, enriches the farmer of Mich-
gan, and the sugar-planter of Louisiana. But
if the representatives of the great practical in
terests Of the republic are about TO surrender to
the do-nothing school, we trust that their con-
slituens will at least study their respective
cases and administer to them salutary doses.
We rejoice to see that the Wines everywhere
have thrown off the yoke of this school, and
that the WINGS Of Alabama, Virginia Georgia,
Tennessee, and Kentucky, have voted with
all the other WHIGs of the Union, Saving the
North Carolina exceptions to the effect that it
is eXpedient to attempt some Legislation on the
Tariff at this time. Here is something on
which we can stand as a National Wing party,
and carry the country with us, for all parts of
the country are waking up to the importance
of Improvements and manufactures and the
school OF politicians who oppose them will find
itself in very conclusive minority when the
issues can be made before the people.
