Editors Crescent The weather to-day is 50 insult.
f6rably hot that one may be excused from writings
long letter, though the materials for very long one
are athand. Business is still very brisk here, and all
articles Of produce bringing very high prices Hemp,
the best quality, is up to-day to $50 per ton conse-
quently rope and baggng have advanced-the former
held at lO5 cents and the latter at is cents Bacon
sides are worth l0 cents and advancing and pork is
held at sls These two latter articles will advance to
a considerably higher figure but the two former have
think nearly reached their eliminating point. You
will see decline soon.
Tobacco, for manufacturing purposes, is sold at
higher figures than the same qualities are worth in
your city Quite number Of hogsheads were received
to-day from Richmond, Va, on order. Just think Of
tobacco being brought here from Virginia. The man
ufactured article is bringing good prices and ready
salesnothng can be had under Is cents and even at
that price it is very inferior article.
There has been splendid spring business here and
very heavy stocks of goods have been worked off at
satisfactory prices.
This city is certainly superior point for business
indeed it is the ladiating point for the whole great

WASHINGTON, June 2G,-Senate-The Senate took
up Mr.. Adams resolution providing for an adjourn
nlent of Congress on the 18th of July.
Mr.. Seward opposed the resolution. He thought
the business of Congress in no condition to allow
the fixing of day for an adjournment, especially at
time so early as designated. The great question of
the day, touching Kansas, had not been taken up in
the House. and even here had only reached inter
mediate stage.
House.-The bill to admit Kansas into the Union
was taken up.
Mr.. Dunn said his object yesterday in moving to re-
fer the bill to the Committee Of the whole on the
State of the Union was not to embalrass action, but
to insure action and produce satisfaction, hut the
gentleman from Pennsylvania Mr.. Crow thought
such reference would kill the bill, he now proposed
to let it remain for consideration before the House
with the understanding that general debate shall
continue until terminated by the previous question.
Then members to be allowed to offer amendments
and make five minute speeches in explanation pro-
yded by the rules.
BY this means the bill may be perfected,
Mr.. Washburn, Of Maine, asked Mr.. Dunn whether
he proposed any termination to the five minutes de-
bate.
Mr. Dunn, let the understanding be three days
Surely in great NATTER this time is brief enough.
Mr.. Stephens thought this would not accomplish
the object. The three days might be taken up in
calling the yeas and nays. The bill should be con-
sidered in Committee of the Whole on the State of
the Union
Mr.. Campbell, of Ohio, said to send the bill there
would be to commit it to the tomb of the Capuets
tie rpCoecleu tllt llIte more litu Two years ago.
when Mr. Cutting moved to refer the Nebraska and
Kansas bill, which has brought so many troubles in
the country to the Committee of the Whole on the
state of the Union, Mr.. Richardson appealed to gen.
tlemen not to permit it to go there, that would be
equivalent to defeat, and this position was likewise
taken by the gentleman from Georgia
Mr. Stephens replied that Mr.. Campbell mistook-
He was not present at the time the Kansas and Ne
brasls bill was passed. and had nothing to do with
bringing troubles in the country.
Mr.. Campbell said the tree known by its FRUITS
Mr.. Stephens rejoined that evil is not the fruit of
that tree, and he should speak of it hereafter.
| Mr.. Campbell-So shall I.
| Mr.. Stephens-Send the Kansas bill tothe Commit
tee of the Whole, and the majority can bring it before
the House whenever they choose.
| Mr.. Campbell reminded the House of the fact that
when Mr.. Cutting moved thus to refer the Kansas and
Nebraska bill, Mr. Breckenridge, the Democratic can
ddate for the Vice Presidency, said that Mr.. Cutting
sought by this side blow to kill the BILL and accused
him indirectly of treachery, which difficulty came
near being settled on & field of conflict.
Mr.. Dunn said explicitly that he never would vote
for the bill in its present form He wanted the mea
sure secured but surely not in the revolutionary form

My Lady Waits for Me.
BY GEORGE z. MORRIS.

My lady waits Tits now the hour
When morn unbars her gates
Ny vessel glides beneath the tower
Where now my lady waits.
Her signal flutters from the wall,
Above the friendly sea!
4 live but to obey her call
My lady waits for me,
My lady waits--for me she waits,
While morning ope's her golden gates
My lady waits No fairer flower
Fer decked the floral grove Ill.,
Than she, the pride of hall and bower.
The lady of my love!
The eastern hills are tocked with light,
81 The land-breeze curls the sea!
BY love and truth sustained, for flight,
My lady waits for me.
My lady waits-for me she waits,
While morning ope's her golden gates.

in noticing Mr. Flmore's acceptance says: He has
nold fashioned way of huggug the constitution to

shaping his according to the theories of either

has made good President once. and if elected will
undoubtedly do so again. 1t is not by any means
