The Effect Of mElnaIIiN.n

The following extract from the Boston Jour.
nal, very moderate paper, shows the construc.
ton which the Northern Compromises put on
the practical effects of the "Finality:"
"SLAvERv IN CALFoRNrA.-Tt has been as.
erted that attempts are making to introduce
slavery into California, and the project for the
division of The Sta'c, as well as the fugitive 81 We
law now before the Legislature, are mentioned
as means which have been used to that end.
we have no definite information as to the num-
Der OF those who desire the introduction of
slavery Into California, but there are none who
openly avow their predictions in favor of it;
and we are now convinced, from the character
Of the emigration TO that State, that the proiect
will not find favor with the masses. We have
an abiding confidence in the good sense and
patriotism of the Californians, and are satisfied
that they wiH not be Instrumental in re.openiuo
the SLAVERY CONTROVERSY, by disturbing a compro.
mise which Das intended 10 be a .fndlity"

and clearly show that what is born in iniquity will
be brought up in iniquity, most especially if it
has political names. 1t will show, too, the rapid
progress of political corruption originating in a
great measure from leading men into tempta-
ton, by placing at their disposal vast sums of
the public money to divide among themselves,
their relatives and political toad eaters; and
afford melancholy proof that the United States
are not making greater strides in wealth and
power, than in legislative corruption. N. b.,
one of the principal actors.in this disgraceful
scene of corruption, will probably be the next
Democratic candidate for governor, and with
the experience gained in the school of canal
lettings, can scarcely fail of success. No doubt
with the aid of Mr.. Ephraim Morris patent for
'the improvement of governors" he will cast
Governor Hunt into outer darkness.
recommend the speech of Mr.. Hatch to the
special attention of all young aspirants to poll
tcal distinction, as we'll as all candidates for fat
jobs and contracts. 1t will show them how
these objects are achieved in the Empire State,
and they may at once grow wise by the short
cut Of the experience of others.

american at Btsenos .AyreS "A letter from Buenos
Ayres, dated the 18th of February, states that to
the Americans is due the credit of being the first
to check the plumber and pillage which followed
the overthrow of Rosas, and Mr.. Graham, the u.
s. consul, has since been publicly thanked by
Gen. Urquza, for the daring intrepidity he dis
displayed on the occasion. Ii appears request
was made for permission from the authorities to
land sufficient number of men to protect the lives
and PROPERTY of American residents, which was
granted Commodore McKeever had anticipated
the necessity of such step, and had brought up
from the Congress, at Montevideo, some twenty
marines, to strengthen the guard of the James
town, which was at anchor off the city. Just as
the piagers were everywhere becoming flushed
and embroidered by their successes, body Of
seven marines and three sailor RS, all well armed
were marching to the office of Joseph Graham,
esq, our consul, accompanied by himself and
Midshipman Walker, when mounted body of
twenty-fve or thirty of the pillagers rode down
the street towards them, charged and fired upon
them. The fire was at once returned, and four of
the desperadoes fell, two killed and two badly
wounded. The rest of them, turning their horses,
fled in haste, and the news of the reception which
their comrades had received, soon spread among
the whole of the robbers, and effectually checked
the farther progress of the pillagers

Talent In Europe and America.

The death of Prince SoHwARTZENBERG, Prime
Minister of Austria, and man of great ability
has excited some reflection on the relative estr-
mates and rewards of talent in Europe ana
America-in despotic and free governments.
The principal courts of Europe are now IN The
hands of the re-actionary party and their min,
listers are men of great capacity. Count Mes
sELRopE, now Russian minister, Is the last OF
the statesmen who ruled the cabinets OF Europe
during the wars of NAPOLEON. PITT, TALLEy-
RAND. METrERNcH are all gone. But we see
that Austria found a ScHwARTzENBERG, sue
cessor worthy of METTERNIcH. In France the
ministry is as yet nothing but there really be-
gins to be some suspicion that Louis NAPOLEON
has talent. We don't think, however, that his
power can be maintained for twelve months.
England has now two ADLER men for minis
tiers than she has had since the days OF PITT.
But we think that decidedly the greater OF the
two is D'IsRAEII Chancellor of the Exchequer
and leader of the party in the House OF Com
mons The rise of this man is great compll-
ment to the institutions of England, as well as
to himself. He was the son of DlsRAELI,
the author or rather compiler of "Curiosities of
Literature" and some other works not more re
markable. The family, we believe, was with
out wealth, as it wasiwithout rank. Young u
IsRAELis first production was Vivian Grey, a
novel which displayed more genius than any
work since the best of those of SCOTT, BYRON
and MOORE. Blu! it was said to be only novel,
and the author nothing but young genius
not practical, not solid, not safe. When he
went into the House of Commons, the old
fogies attempted to laugh him down. He is
now in the most responsible post in the British
empire And this just triumph has been won
by him in an old, rich, aristocratc country
where prescription, rank, usage, birth, wealth
and all sorts of prejudices abound. Now, we
are in the habit of Boosting of the great success
of our institutions. What has become OF
WEBSTER and CLAY? They have been sci
aside for HARRISON, TAYLOR, and SCOTT
What became of Mr.. CALHOUN? He was set
aside for JACKSON, VAN buren,, and Polk. Now,
when we consider that this country once pre-
ferred great men, and elected them to high
Office, and that very rapid sliding scale has
been adopted during the present generation,
what is the inference as to the tendency of our
institutions!
1t is remarkable that D'IsRAELI began life as
friend of the people. lie is now the head OF
the Tories. So did EDMUND BURKE. Did they
learn to distrust the people from whom they
sprang? Fox, MIRABgAU and TALLEYRAND were
arstocrats, but became the advocates of popular
doctrines. Did they learn to despise aristocra-
CIV? TALLEYRAND probably despised both.

The Rains and the Floods.

Although the clouds are yet above US, and
the winds are from N. E., the rain has almost
subsidized in this locality; but the Potomac river
is fearfully high, and much injury is being done.
The canal in this city is overfown, and the
waters make up towards the Avenue, filling
the cellars on the south side, and subjecting
every one 10 great Inconvenience, aud occasion.
ally to serious loss.
Business is entirely suspended along the
canal. and there are severe losses of wood, lum.
Der, &c.
We learn that the Chain Bridge, five miles
above Georgetown, has been carried away, and
so has greater por ion of the Long Bridge,
near this city.
All the cellars on the south side of Pennsyl-
vania avenue contain water; and in some in
stances, the loss is immense.
Van Sewick's undergrad, at Pages wharf,
is n perfect waste. His loss, we are told, is
$4,000.
A vessel load Of lumber, intended for the re-
pair Of the Long Bridge, which was few days
since piled up at Easby's wharf, has been car.
ried away.
o'cLocK, P. AT eleven o'clock the Chain
bridge came down in three divisions, each span
in almost perfect state. One grounded on
Sandy point, Just above the long bridge, where
Il remains. The second and third spans came
down soon after in the main current, each one
carving away a pier Of the Long bridge.
The barque VIM. Chase, lying below Alex
andria a few miles, is in danger. She has
a cargo of sugar and molasses from New
Orleans.
Evan Lyons loses 300 barrels -four, and John
Davidson's -four is all afoat.
Myers g. Bakers wood yard is all ahoat-700
or 500 cords, il is supposed.
The lumber in all the yards of Georgetown,
south Of Water street, is ahoat
The entire supply of wood Of McCutcheon
g. Brother. between Georgetown aud Wash
uoton, is lost, comprising several hundred cords.
We rejoice to learn from Harpers Ferry that
the water is subsidng in the rivers. and that the
bridge is safe a. out Of danger Much de-
struction has been wrought along the streams.
