THE THICK-coMING EVENTS OF THE FU-

The Herald, OF New York, contains report
Of the speech made in that city by Senator
Douglas, in tho course OF which, he thus boldly
presented the programme Of slaveholding oper.
atoms for the future:

in the popular favor as it is becoming more
thoroughly understood | hear men now say
that although they opposed il at first, they are
now willing to acquosce in il; and If they arc,
let us take them at their word but let us first
understand what they mean by acquiescence.
II is not sufficient that they shall not seck 10
disturb Nebraska and Kansas bnt they must
afq,aesce also in the principle, and apply u IN

we have always insisted upon, that the au-
thors Of the repeal Of the Missouri Compro
mise intended to establish Principle, in virtue
Of which Slavery should be propagated in all
future acquisitions Of Territory, is here dis
tinctly confirmed by the highest authority.
We have cautioned our friends against being
lullcd into security by the reports Of letter
writers, that all difficulties with Spain are ad-
justed and the Cuban plot IL ended. What
trust can be placed in an Administration and
an unscrupulous Oligarcby that have taken
the country by surprise, in the notification of
the Missouri Compromise, forcing upon II a
fraudulent measure by fraudulent means
Will an Administration that boldly proposed
to take twenty millions out of the Treasury,
unknown to the People, to enlarge the area OF
Slave Labor, md secure route to the Pacific
by railway for the Slave Power, hesitate TO
prosecute in secret plot for the acquisition OF
Cubal II is folly to expect fair and open deal
ing from onr present rulers.
Before the meeting Of Congress, we heard a
great noise about tho vast surplus in tho
Treasury--twenty- millions Of dollars--and
constantly growing. What was to DO done
with il What was TO be done to keep il
down? These were the great questions
Whatever disposition might be made Of the
actual surplus, il was all-important, 20 said
the Administration and its organs, TO bring
down the revenue Of the Government to the
expenditure. Secretary Guthrie went into tho
subject Of Tariff revision at length, and Iaif

House Of Representatives., June 10, 1854.
The House immediately went into Commit
tee Of the Whole on the state Of tho Union,
MIR. Bocock in the chair.
MIR. Chastain, of Georgia, addressed the
Committee in favor Of the annexation Of Cuba,
by means Of negotiation. He declared that
the differentiation Of Cuba would not be- per-
mitted by this Republic, North or South. This
is the best time for any contest that must come.
France and England have enough to do 10 tho
Eastern hemisphere, in their contest with
Russia
At first he said, his sympathics wero with
Turkey; but he changed his mind. Russia he
had found, upon examination, to be our friend.
Russia had never interlered with or denounced
American institutions. Russia had always
been fair, friendly, and just toward us. We
ought to wish we'll to Russia in its present
Conflict md defeat to England and France,
who are seeking only their own commercial
advantage
Mr.. c. concluded by stating that if negotia-
ton should fail to accomplish tho purpose in
view, he was in favor Of an open aud direct
war OF conquest.
The Committee then rose, and the commit
tees were called upon for reports. Among those
presented, were
A bill granting additional powers to the Cor
poration of Washington
A bill to reorganiae the United States navy
A bill increasing the capital stock Of the
Washington Gas Light Company; and
A bill to moro efcctnally provide against
frauds on the Pension Office.
MIR Riddle from the Committee on Patents,
reported back q memorial on the subject, ask
ing tho United States to purchase from Peru

chief business of Congress would DO the revi-
zion and reduction Of the Tariff, according to
Free Trade Principles, so as to relieve the

ings Of Congress tell us what has become OF
the zeal Of the Administration and it's Party on
this subject? Why, during session Of six
months have we heard nothing about relieving
the People Of burdensome taxes? Nothing OF

Nothing Of the benefcent effects Of Free Trade!
Has new light dawned upon tho Presidents
Are there schemes in the Future, breaking upon
his vision, that may require for their consum-
nation that vast surplus in the Treasury, and
that large excess of receipts from customs over
the ordinary expenditures of Government
which is constantly swelling The surplus?
IL the Administration Party in Congress fail
to make some certain disposition Of the surplus,
and to provide for reduction OF the Tariff, we
may take it for granted that the Executive and
Slavery Propaganda are secretly engaged in
pushing forward schemes which will involve
the most extravagant OUTLAWS.

ByA Delano Auburn & Buffalo Miller, orion,
Mullignn.
Mr.. Dclano Of course writes from experience,
having accomplished an overland trip to Cali
fornia. He presents in a very interesting way,
the scenes and adventures of such journey,
dwelling upon entertaining incidents, and
throwing out many useful thoughts concern

The volume is handsomely got up, and !lastra-

~ A writer in the National Inteliigencer
condemns and denounces the miserable con-
dition of the Washington Jail, and censures
tho Grand Jury for not presenting it as a
nuisance His condemnation and denunciation
are correct, but not his censnre Of the Grand
Jury, for it has, time and again, presented
that establishment as nuisance needing
thorough reform.
The Washington Sentinel approves of the
writer's views and incidentally charges upon
Christians who give aid to the destitute abroad
the neglect of these things ut homo. The
heather abroad have no other friends than
the charitable Christians Of the more favored
lands of civilization; the jail is not subject to
their control. Ii is part of our municipal
institutions managed by the political authori-
ties, who alone are competent to conduct it
Alright. Christians cannot be reproached for
neglecting it, any moro than for permitting n
Nebraska bill to pass, or it's opponents to be
insulted, bullied, and menaced, in the chamber
Of the American Senate.
