Mr. Wilkinson Of Minnesota made refreshing
and excellent remarks on the crisis to-day in the

THE COMPROMISES.
The Compromisers' Convention are likely TO get
2 small majority in favor of Slavery extension,
but am not aware that that scheme grows in

England and the interior were victimzed TO

ttitutions have suffered largely. In many
fsses Mr.. Floyd personally assured the parties
they would be paid at maturity, and that he
fsvsr accepted for one half the service
actually rendered by the contractors.
