CoNGREss.-Nothing has been done in this
body since our last issue. We perceive from
our exchanges that the Gadsden Treaty as
amended has been rejected by the Senate by a
vote of q to Is. This verihes the prediction OF
Mr.. PIKE made week or two ago at the Com
mercial Convention, that if the South desired the
construction of the Pacific Rail Road It would
have to be built by subscriptions from the
States, as the Governme MT would never agree to
make and appropriation for that purpose. The
Nebraska and Kansas Bill is still under discuss
ion apparently becoming more and more I'M
popular every day. For our part We can see
nothing to be gained by its passage and we care
but little about it. 1t amounts to but little more
than Compromise and during our brief exis-
tence We have never known Compromise in
which the South was not the loser. The body
is like to remain in session for many months
yet to come Anderson IS. C.) Gazette.

Some friend has sent US copy of the Knox
vile Register, with an article "marked, which
we find to be description of some extraordi-
nary mineral discovery, recently made in East
Tennessee. So rich are the copper mines
discovered; that about three quarters of sec
ton of land in one locality was sold for the
extraordinary sum of million and quarter of
dollars But this is not surprising, when it is
stated that about five thousand tons ofrich cop
per ore are taken from the mines monthly,
worth nearly half million Of dollars, and it is
supposed that this vast amount viii be increas-
ell. when other shafts are sunk. The Register
thinks these copper mines are not as valuable
as other mineral resources in the vicinity, such
as zinc lead, marble and gypsum. If all these
statements shall rove true, we shall soon hear
of thousands of adventures focking to East
Tennessee, with as much eagerness as they
recently hocked to California, and with better
prospects of realizing fortunes. Besides, if the
half that is told shall prove true, there will be
70 great difficulty in extending railroads from
Knoxville to every point Of the compass. For
the interest of the South, and the general inter
est of the country, we sincerely hope there may
be no deception in these great accounts of the
mineral wealth of East Tennessee and Virgin

H6r The Union at Washington in noticing
the speech of Hon. S. A. SMITH, of this District,
delivered on the 9Th ult. in the House of Repre-
sentatives on the Nebraska Bill, pays the fol.
lowing compliment:
"This gentleman is now filing his first term
as q member of Congress, and it is no dispar-
sgement to others to say that few young
members have made so favorable an impression.
His speech on the Nebraska question consti-
tutes a solid basis onwhieh his future cogres-
sional reputation may rest. 1t establishes his
claims to high order of ability. The legal
questions involved are discussed with great
clearness and force, showing that Mr.. Smith
has made his attainments, as lawyer, availa
bic in the discussion of measures before the
House.

the finest and most delicious figs that we have

superfne article will find them by calling at the
confectionery of the above named gentlemen.
Their stock of candies, &C., &C., large, and they
are determined to hold out inducements to pur-
chasers in the way of good bargins. They are
liberal-minded gentlemen who do not neglect
the press, and it is an established usage among
the people never to neglect such men, for they
invariably give good bargains. They buy goods
of the best quality, and are not afraid to have
them undergo examination. Set it down as
rule to which there can be no exception. that
merchants who remember the press always
have the best goods and the best bargains.

GEN. CuILoM's SPEECH.-Another power
full blow has been struck by Southern hand
against the nefarious scheme to repudiate The
Missouri Compromise. The speech delivered
in the House of Representative, on Tuesday
last by Gen. Cullom, of Tennessee, in oppoO
sition to DaugIaS' Nebraska Kansas bill, is
spoken of by those who heard it as among the
very ablest efforts yet made upon the subject
Gen. Cullom is gallant and whole-souled Ten
nessee Wing, who thinks for himself, and has
the manly courage and independence to speak
out his convictions and vote accordingly. In
short, he is bold, fearless, independent, and
able man, who appreciates the motives and pur-
poses which induced Judge Douglas to cast this
frebrand into Congress, and does not hesitate
to denounce the act as it deserves.
This is Gen. Cullom's second term in Con-
gress. Though an able debater and always
listened to with great respect, he occupies the
attention of the House very seldom. His man
ner of address is bold and earnest, such as to
what he says, and influenced only by sense of
public duty. Being Southern member, and
speaking out as boldly and unquaiifedly, in
opposition to the whole scheme, denouncing it
as nothing more nor less than an attempt to re-
pudiate national honor and national faith, as
we learn he did, it is to be hoped that large
number of his speech will be printed and cir
culated. 1t could not fail to be productive of
good if large number were distributed in our
own State Philadelphia Daily News.

THE MEXICAN TREATY.

The special Washington correspondent OF the

the GADsDEN Treaty as amended, says the vote
was 80 to l3.
Mr.. BELLS amendment with reference to

out SLoo's name, and simply. provide right
of way across Tehuantepec, for the ttansporta-
ton of the United States mails and merchan-
disc sent from the Atlantic States to California,
and rice persa-;t thus merely provides tor a
right of way without interfering in any manner
with the conflicting claims of rival companies.
Upon motion of Mr.. RUsK, the boundary was
slightly altered, so as to take in the disputed
Mesilla Valley, and run somewhat south OF the
line designated at the time the treaty was re-
jected.
Mr.. MASON then moved to increase the COM
nensation to ten millions, which was carried.
The treaty, therefore, as ratified, extlngulsh-
es the claims under the eleventh article OF the
treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and abrogates tina
article; it settles the disputed Mesilla Vale.
