In the Senate yesterday the bill to amend
the warehousing system by establishing private

ed, and passed. The Pacific Railroad bill was
debated by Messrs. DAVIS, Dawson, and

the report of the Joint Committee prescribing
the mode of counting and announcing the cleo

the United States, on Wednesday next. The
remainder of the day was unproftably con-
sumed in parliamentary struggle between the
friends and opponents Of certain bills granting

Commenting on the recent passage alarms
by Messrs. STANLY and STEPHENS, on the Null
LITIGATION question, the Charleston Mercury
uses the following language:
'sMr. Stanly is mistaken in supposing nulli6ca-
ton and secession to be dead. They are not dead,
unless State rights and the South be also dead.
True, this armor of republican liberty, like the
sword of Wallace, hangs rusting on the wall for
want of arms stout enough to WELD it, But the
day will come when it alone will be sufficient
to protect and the stern demands OF necessity and
existence will raise up men equal to the crisis"
The declaration comes at an inopportune
moment for Democrats of the Union school
who are hunting for pretexts to fight under
the leaders of what they are pleased to call ga
defanct heresy." They must enter the trap
now with their eyes open.

SHIPLoAD OF WIvEs.-An immense emigrant
chip called the Caroline Chisholm, is about to sail
from Southampton, England, for Australia, with
nine hundred young women of good character as
emigrants. Mrs. Chi holm, whos having lived in
Australia, is famous for her generous interest in
behalf of female emigrants to that country, will
accompany them. The expectation is, that all
these stgentle creatures will be eagerly sought
for in marriage by industrious and hardy miners,
farmers and shopkeepers.

The SHORTEST PASSAGE FROM CHINA.-The New
York Commercial advertiser corrects a recent state
ment that the ship Panamas run from Shanghai,
China, to New York in ninety days, was the
shortest passage made, and says:
Son referring to our own files of February 10,
1851, we find that the ship Howqua, Capt. McKen-
zie, made the passage in eighty days from
Shanghai, and seventy two from Anjisr. The
supposition of j. s. that the voyage has been
made in seventy-two days from Canton to this
port is mistake. We believe the old favorite
ship, the Natchez, has made the run in seventy
nine DAYS to New York;

The nomination of Mr. SAMUEL MEDARy
for the Postmaster Generalship under General
PIERCE is bitterly opposed by the ALLEN por-
ton of the Ohio Democracy. The Cincinnati
Enquirer, unquestionably the most vigorous
Democratic journal in the State, denounces
MEDARY in strong terms as incapable and cor
rupt. The Enquirer attributes MEDARY'shos-
tllity to ALLEN to the alleged fact that the
latter refused to employ his Senatorial influence
to aid MEDARY in consummating certain cop

Our Buffalo namesake has fulfilled its duty
to the Barnburners by assailing in good set
terms the antecedents, character, and pretensions
of Mr.. Dickinson. Other of the Barnburning
journals have labored to effect the object ind-
recuy, and under show of Democratic unity;
but the Buffalo organ throws off all disguise.
and takes the HunkeI bull by the horns with
out more ado. 1t assaiis all that portion Of the
New York Democracy that did not support the
Buffalo platform, and accuses Mr.. DIcKINsoN
Of ''proving himself as recreant to truth as he
was to duty" because he did not vote for the
Wilmot proviso and against the Compromise
measures.

cratic print, declares that "the old leaven of
Buffalo platformism" is still at work, eds
