A NATIONAL PRoHIBIroRY LIQUOR LAw-SE-
cRETARY MARCY ITS APosTLE.-We give, in an
other place, the speech of q. G. Delavan, deli
vered at Albany on Thursday, to the State Tenn
perance Society. Mr.. Delavan's speech is worth
printing for several reasons, butmore especially
because it contains letter from Marcy, in which
he states that there is no treaty extant which
could prevent Congress from making ma
tional Prohibitory Liquor law, by interdicting
Importation altogether. This must be move
for the succession by the Secretary Of State.
Marcy's policy, it seems by this, is to lead the
temperance party by advocating the extension
Of Neal Dow's law, and Neal Dow's style of en-
forcing it, over all the States and Territories in
the Union. Then Marcy would be temperance
candidate for the Presidency-Neal Dow the
second man on the ticket--and we should have
cur army and navy engaged in the demolition
Of grogshops and the bombardment of fashion
able hotels. There is good time coming.

KANSAS FREE SON. MEETIMss-They had a
free soil Kansas meeting in the Tabernacle
the other night, and another on a very
small scale last night, and the parties in.
terested will probably keep up and extend this
plan of operations as long as they can make
it pay. The prime movers, like Governor
Reeder, have bought up various tracts OF
land in Kansas, which they want to sell.
Hence these patriotic gatherings and appeals
for more money and more emigrants. 1t is q
landjobbing speculation upon free soil pro-
fences. Let all the greenhorns subscribe to
the emigrant fund accordingly, or 60 out and
buy farm of these free soil Spectators, at
three or four times its first cost, and the cause
will go on swimmingly. Citizen Mucklewrath
will advance loans on short time, upon good
security, and for q good stiff interest The
financiers in the cause of freedom can't be ex.
pected to work for nothing.

The LIQUOR LAW IN BRooKLYN.-It is said
that Mayor Hall, of Brooklyn, differs from
Mayor Wood in his Interpretation of the Liquor
law, and joins the prohibitionists throughout.
It is understood that though Mayor Wood has
wisely decided to suspend the operation Of the
law till after the fourth, Mayor Hall intends to
make parade Of executing it, ana to order the
police of Brooklyn to seize remorselessly all
liquors, whether foreign or domestic. We trust
that The Mayor Of Brooklyn will think twice
ere he does any thing SO foolish. 1t is easy
enough to get up riot here; aud though riots
can no doubt be put down with great facility,
the abstract satisfaction Of having INDICATED
the law would be a poor consolation to Mayor
Hall, if he caused score or less of human
beings to be put to death for refusing to obey
statute which the courts afterwards pro-
nounced unconstitutional.

GREELEY IN CLICHY.-Our Fourierite philo
sopher, Greeley, may thank Barnum for his
late imprisonmeDtin the Jail of Cichy, in Paris.
When the Crystal Palace speculation had It's
back broken, the stockholders, in desperate
effort to save themselves, fell back upon Bar
mum. He had proved his ability to carry
through any humbug, however transparent,
disgusting or abominable. He had made money
out of an old negress, woody horse, Goldfish
mermaid, and various other devices which ordi
nary swindlers would have refused to touch
and Barnum was therefore the man to save the
stockholders Of the Crystal Palace. They hum
plugged the prince of humbugs in the trick
and Greeley in the bargain. They called upon
us, offered us stock upon the most accommo
dating terms, il we would give Barnum lift
but we turned them over to Greeley as theii
man; and sure enough they caught him. Hence
his arrest and Imprisonment in Paris as a debtor
to French exhibitor in the Crystal Palace
BarHum is responsible for it--Barnum got him
into the scrape, and from the profits Of the late
baby show Barnum ought to pay the costs
Let Citizen Mucklewrath hand in his bill at the
Museum.

DESPATCH OF THE SOUTHERN MAn-In 1858
we received the gratifying intelligence that
the great Southern mail between New Orleans
and New York, was to be put ahead twelve
hours, or would occupy but five and half days
In coming from New Orleans to this city. We
patiently waited during the whole year for the
fulflment of the promise, but the change never
took place. In the spring of 1854 arrange
ments were again made to shorten the time,
but by daily meeting, we presume, with some
mishsp the mail never came through in the
time specified This summer the affair was
to be arranged to a certainty. A convention
Of the Southern railroad directors was held,
who, in connection with the Post Office Depart
ment, assembled in Washington, and settled
matters to their own satisfaction, and published
a statement Of the time to be occupied in the
despatch of the mail between each place on the
route which arrangement was to go into effect
on the 10th of June--whereby the mail would
be landed in New York In five days from New
OSssns. All seemed fair and promising at the
time; but we have not yet received the benefit
of tie change. As it is now, the great South
ern mail leaves Philadelphia at two o'clock p.
NJ, by the Amboy route, and arrives in this
city about eight o'clock the same evening,
which Of course is too late an hour to be of any
benef. to the business community before the

BRIeApIER GENERAL JAMES WATSON WEBB
REDUCED TO THE RANKs.-Our military cotem-
porary Of the Courier, after career Of many
interesting fluctuations and vicissitudes, is re-
duced to the ranks He began his military
course as lieutenant in the regular United
States army from which he was promoted to
the State militia--frst captain then colonel,
ard lastly, through his partizan influence as
wbig Journalist he was advanced to the high
distinction Of Brigadier General, by Governor
Hunt. Now, the whig party having been
knocked all to pieces and disbanded, the same
question arises with the Chevalier Webb which
suggested itself to Mr.. Webster when he found
himself standing alone in Captain Ty ler's Cabi-
net" Where am I to go?" But, suiting the
action to the word, without waiting for instiSc-
tioDs our enterprising Chevaler has fallen
back into the ranks Of the Seward coalition.
Citizen Robespierre Mueklewrath has taken him
in hand accordingly, and is teaching him the
discipline Of the camp; and we wish the drill
sergeant and his pupil good time of it.
The Chevaiier Webb is under sort Of CON-
pact to serve w. Fl. Seward in this crisis. When
the latter was Governor he saved the Chevalier
from the penitentiary, whittier he otherwise
would have gone on account Of that ridiculous
duel with Tom Marshall, Of Kentucky. 1t is
understood that as an equivalent for this
service to Webb, he engaged when the time
should arrive, to do all that he could
in behalf Of his benefactor, Mr.. Seward,
for the Presidency. Hence the present course
of the Chevalier on the Nebraska question. His
time has come for the fulflment of his bond
We may deplore his humiliating position as an
underling of Citizen Mucklewrath u Co. in the
service of the niger worshippers, but we must
approve the fidelity Of the Chevalier to his con-
tract. 1t is not as agreeable as the ifty-two
thousand dollar compact with Nicholas Biddle,
winding up with the bankrupt law, we admit;
but still there is something magnificent in the
good faith exhibited by our chivalric Chevalier
in sticking even to bad bargain. For some
time past, as Brigadier- General Of the peace
establishment, our Chevalier has pursued pretty
much his own political course There may be
some difficulty in reducing him to thorough
discipline under his new enlistment, but Citizen
Mucklewrath, aided by Lloyd Garrison, Lucy
Stone, and the women's rights women of the
Seward anti-slavery league, will doubtless be
able, among them, to take the stiffness out of
his joints, and make him flexible and obediept
soldier. We may pity the case of our preux
Chevalier but there is no help for it, Seward,
like ShylOck, must have his bond.

and resolution TO this House, In order that the said
statements may be corrected and such dscredt and
proach may be removed from the members of this
House, and from the character Of the Senate.
long and most violent discussion arose; after which
the motion to adopt was lost, 203 to 68.
Tie following is the preamble referred to above
Whereas the bill granting IL, 600 900 Of public
lands to be appropriated pro rata among the several
States Of our Union for the benefit of the INDECENT in
passed the United States Senate at the last session
OF Congress- by vote Of 25 yeas to IL nays and the

failed to become Law in consequence of tns veto
rage OF the President OF the United States -
The objections 10 the above that the bill OF Con-
gress specified ten instead Of twelve millions Of acres
stated in the preamble agreed to by the House. The
preamble stated that the bill had passed Congress at
the last session. whereas 1t had passed at the pre-
vious and that instead Of the bill providing for pro
division of the public lands among the States as
stated in the preamble the bill provides that there be
appropriated In compound ratio Of their geographical
