By the steamer Great Western, Captain 1\'latbews,"we have English papers to the 11th ult. being a week later than before received. - The Great Vl"estern left Liverpool at 10h 45m, A.

The state of feeling on American af- fairs was the same as before. Mr. Hay- wood’s speech had reached England, and was read with much satisfaction. American flour, in _bond, is quoted at 35s a ‘.26. Sir Henry Hardiuge and Sir Henry Gough, who distinguished themselves by military services in India, have been el- evated to the pcc'age. There are now six government war steamers fitting up in London. The Irish papers describe the flood of emigration from Cork, Limerick, &c. to be greater this season than it was ever known before. The Archbishop of Paris, in a pastoral address, has expressed his sympathy for the Poles. Sixjournals have ceased to appear in Madrid, and 3000 persons supported by them have been thrown out of bread. In Persia the cholera is raging with devastating effect. At Meshed one third of the population has perished. At The- heran and Ispahau the mortality has been very great. The American provision trade has par- taken of the facilities which the Treasury order affords. Considerable supplies of beef and provisions have been released from bond under the lo\v duties, and are finding their way into general consumption. In various parts of the country large numbers of operatives have struck for an advance of wages. L1v1~:nPooL, April ll-—Prayers are to be offered up to-morrow in all the Anglican Churches throughout Great'Britain for; the success of our arms against the Slkhs,l and a form of prayer has been composed by the Ar-chbishop of Canterbury, thank- ing. the Almighty for our recent victories’ on the Sut-lej. The policy and good taste of such a movement may.‘ be questioned. One whole week in Parliament has been lost. The introduction of the lrish coer- cion bill rendered this inevitable; two adverse parties had an interest in delay. The third reading of the corn bill to take place on the following Monday. Discussions continue as to how the ta- riff will fare in the Lords. The opinions of some 300 members of that-House are ascertained, it is said, they are nearly equally balanced ; but the-views of,:'>0 more areoscilating. Upon these the fate of the measure and of the Government depends. The “talk on change,” 9th inst. was, that the news from America was favor- able ;- that the debates and delays'_'in the, Senate argued an expected adjustment of the 'q.uest_i’on: and the priva?e~ information was, that the member from South Carolina, the personal friends of the President, had“, :_,,tb‘ro'\vn out a fecler, and asserted a fact, Resolutions of the New Jersey l.egislature -. ‘when he declared that all the States gov-, ernment reqiiired was a compromise on the Oregon qltufion, and that all they had ‘II don; was to facilitate an adjustment hon- orable to both parties. . The further talk is, that the matter has been virtually settled in London, and that,- although the arrangement may alter the relationship of parties in the States——the Whigs aiding the malcontents among the Democracy—the President will confirm the arrangement. Poland. Lsnznene, March 13—At 7 o’clock this morning, Vveseznivoki and E. Dembosski, the leaders of the late insurrection, were brought into. this town in chains. The former is said to have headed the -attack on the troops at llariof, on the night of the ‘list February, when two. cadets were killed :and two privates wounded. The Government had set a price of :1 thousand fiorins on each of the leaders’ heads.—— Tbe reward in the case of Wesezivoki falls to the lot of two countrymen, who’ discovered him lying upon a haystar-k,and delivered him on suspicion to the district authorities. He was disguised,in a priest’s garment-—had cut off his whiskers and mustachios, and shaved his head behind. Poses‘, March ‘l'7th—-The Warsaw Ga- zetts, received here to-day, announces that she land owner Pantalcon Patoski was condemned to death, and the sentence ‘was executed on the 17th of this month at Sicdloe. coNGuEss“ibN.tL. Mor:o.a.r. April 27’. SENATE-The morning business pos- sessed no interest, and at an early hour the consideration of the French spo.l- ation bill was resumed. Mr.‘Dix was entitled to the floor, and occupied the remainder of the session in reply to Mr. J. M. Clayton, and in opposi. tion to the bill. In the House, as soon as thejournal had been- read, Mr. C. J. lngersoll rose and briefly reiterated his charges against Mr. VVebstcr, which were, lst, Unlawful use of the secret service fund; Qd, misapplicn- tion of said fund to corrupt the party press; 3d, leaving the Department of Staten defaulter; and went on to show that the secret service fund was always kept in the hands ofthe “disbursing agent” of the Department of State, and that du- ring the first twelve months of his admin- istration of that office, Mr. VVebster drew from that fund, on his own orders, payable to himself, the sum of $15,000, and there was evidence in the Department of State to show thatithis proceeding did not re- ccive the sanction of the President. Of this 815,000, Mr. Vlfebster returned $5, 000 on the 23d June, 184-2; and $4,500 was settled by Presidcnt’s certificate in July, 184-2, the greater part of which was applied to the corruption of the public press through the agency of Mr. F. O. J. Smith. Mr. Ingersoll said that after cred- iting sundry other itcms, Mr. ‘Webster was still a defaulter to the amount of $2, 300 when he left the office, and the ac- count was not finally settled until the 12th February, 184-5. Mr. Ashmun asked leave to reply and entered into a review of the history of Charles Jared Ingersoll, from his entrance into public life; and showed that he had been the traducer and villilier of some of the best men in the country. He also showed that Gen. Jackson had dismissed him from the office of District Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, for improper conduct in office, and he had retained the public funds in his hands, for which suit had been brought, and it was. two years after a judgment had been rcn-i" dercd against him before he paid over thci amount. Mr. J. R. Ingersoll made a beautiful and feeling defence of the conduct of his brother while District Attorney, and as- surred the House on the word ofa gentle- man that his course in that office was per-, fectly honorable. Mr. Ashmun said be appreciated every thing which came from the gentleman; from Pennsylvania, (Mr. J. R. lugersoll,)‘ and he had no doubt that was truly hisl opinion. But he must leave the Houscl unbiasscd by ties of such close relation-3 ship, to judge from the facts he stated.-——’l As to the charges against Mr. \Vebstcr, be‘; pronounced them to be utterly false. l\'lr.§ 'l‘yler had given his testimony that nof money was drawn from the secret servicel fund without his express authority. Mr.l A. said he knew of iuvidious efforts that‘ had been made to induce Mr. Tyler to dis-l; avow the sanction be had given to thoscf disbursements. - Mr. C. J. lngcrsoll—By me, sir, by me '1 l Mr. Ashmun—-Yes, sir, by you. Mr. C.J. lngersoll—lt is fulse———iL is a lie. Much confusion ensued, during which? Mr. Ingersoll indulged in the epithets, liar; and coward, and was called to order by} the Speaker. Mr. Ashmun preserved his coolness, and said he was not to be drawn into :1 person-E al controversy with the member from Pa. He came from a part of the country where the duel and pistol were not in vogue _ —:md where the people were not afraid to: decline a resort to that mode of settling disputes. As to his personal courage, the member from Pa. or any of his abettors, could have proofs of it, if they felt dispos- ed to attack him. Mr. A. then concluded his remarks. Mr. Schenck then offered a resolution to appoint a committee of live to ascertain by what means Mr. Ingersoll obtained in- formation which the President had said could. not be communicated. Some debate ensued. on points of order and the resolution, after being amended: so as to appoint a Committee to investi- gate the charges made by Mr. Ingersoll against Mr. VVebster, with a view to the impeachment of the latter ifproved true, and with power to send for persons and papers, wasad-opted. Adjourned. TUESDAY, April 28. t I In the SEN.-r'rI~:, Mr. Mills presented ‘the in favor of the l‘arifl' and of a Light house on Tucker’s-Be_acb.’ , ‘ ~ ' Mr. '3-arnagin gavegnptice of a Joint Res- ’ a olution authorizing the appointment of a Board to adjudicate upon..tbe claims of our citizens against Mexico. In tbe.HoUsr:, the Speaker announced the Select Committee, on Mr. Schcnck’s resolution, to enquire how Mr._ Ingersoll obtained possession of the papers on which he had founded his late charges against Mr. Vlrebster. The Committee consists of Mr. Schenck, Dobbin, Mell- vane, Stanton and Rockwell. . ‘ The Committee to inquire into the char- ges brought against Mr. W'ebster was also announced, as follows; Messrss. Pettit, Vinton, Davis of Miss. King of Mass. and lNilmot. The Sinithsonian bill was discussed by Messrs. Sims, J. Q. Adams, Johnson of Tenn. Thurman and Ratbbun. ' ' It is reported that the President yester- day gave. Mr. Pukcnhamjthe ‘Notice’ of the ts:-rmln.'1ti0n of the Joint Occupancy of Oregon. , V.71:nz~:sso.tr. April 29. in the SEl\'ATl~‘.tlilS1110rnlng a communi- cation was received from the Secretary of Vlrar, in answer to a resolution, transmit- ting some recent information in relation to the Copper mines on Lake Superior. Mr. Jarnagin, on leave, introduced “a joint resolution in regard to claims of cil- izens of the United States, upon the Re- public of Mexico,” of which be had given notice yesterday. The resolution was read a second time and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. On motion of Mr. Morehead, the Com- mittee on the Library was instructed to enquire into the expediency ofdistributing the copies of the American Archieves,now in possession of the government, among the Historical Societies and Universities of the country. The Senate then took up the bill grant- ing alternate sections of the. public domain to aid in the completion of certain works of internal improvement in Michigan. Mr. Calhoun said it was not only the right, but the duty of the United States to afllord aid to works running through the public lands, by which the value of those lands would be enhanced. Mr. Niles opposed the bill, and expres- sed his surprise at the new ground taken by the Senator from South Carolina. His remark was so general that it might easily be misunderstood. The debate was further continued by Messrs. Cass, Niles, Breesc, VVestcott, Archer, J. M. Clayton, Benton, Hunting- ton, and others, after which the bill was slightly amended and passed. Ayes 26, noes 11. The Senate then adjourned. In the House, the Smithsonian bill was taken up in Committee of the Whole. Mr. Hamlin advocated the bill, and op- posed the substitute which had been pro- posed by Mr. Adams. The money should be deemed to be in the treasury of the U. S., and could not be properly anywhere else. If the Government had invested it, it had done so at its own risk,and was re- sponsible for the principal and interest. After some brief remaks from Messrs. “food, of N. Y. Giles, and others, the pe- riod for the debate to terminate having ar- rived, the Committee proceeded to vote on the various amendments proposed. After spending three hours in the con- sideration of the amendments, the Com- mittee adopted the bill, and it finally puss- ed the House by a vote of 85 to 76. Tuunsnnr, April 30. in the SE.\‘.\'rB,tl1c Smithsonian bill which passed the House yesterday, was received, read twice and referred to a Select Com- mittec of Three, to be appointed by the Chair. The Committee appointed are Messrs. Dix of N. Y. Corwin of O. and Lewis of Ala. The resolution offered by Mr. Sevier, authorizing a compilation of business re- cords and operations of the Treasury De- Jartment, was taken up. Mr. Allen supported thcresolution. He had seen one volume already prepared and the compilation and an index of the next, and pronounced the work a great, substan- tial and desirable desideratum——-a compila- tion of Jewels. Mr. J. M. Clayton thought the work would be valuable for useelin the Treas- ury Department. Mr. Evans laughed at the idea that it was a ‘work of jewels.’ He had never seen a more trashy, useless work in hislife. Mr. Benton ridiculed “this work ofjew- els,” and road from a volume of it, before him, specimens of its jewels, in a merry way. He was utterly astonished to hear Senators get up and recommend such mis- erable stull‘ as valuable jcwels,about which they knew nothing. Mr. Allen then took the floor and is replying, as this report closes, in an earthquake style. There is uite :1 scene l , The House met this morning, and im- mcdiately adjourned over to Monday next. \Vc understand the wise and democrat- ic selectmen of Greenwich took posses- sion of the Registry List, at the close of the elec‘ion in that town, on the day" of the first trial, for Representatives, and at the second trial they put into the hands of the presiding ofiicer, and which was used as the check book on the latter day, an ‘entire new list made out by them between the two meetings. The new list contained many democratic names that were not on the original list, and some whig names on the original list were not to be found on the new list,-and such whigs were depriv- ed of their votes.

Letters by the Great Western from high sources, say that the Oregon question is settled—and give the details, viz. lat. 4-9 to the Straits of Fuca, and thence through said straits to the Pacific, leaving the whole of Vancouver’s Island to Great Brit- ain, the navigation of the Columbia for a term of years, dcc. We understand the fact to be, that the arrangement made through the medium of several gentleman at Washington, and which we announced perhaps two months ago, but which was retarded by the uncorteous manner in which the offer of arbitration was rejected, has now been recognized and confirmed. The forms of diplomacy will be gone through with at \‘Vashington, as we pre- sume———for the formal negotiation has never by our government been committed to Mr. McLanc, though the generous con-‘ fidence existing between him and Lord A berdeeu has doubtless enabled him to render important aid in bringing the con- troversy to a favorable issue. The President, \vc have reason to know, is ready and will be prompt to accept the terms stated above, and the Senate not less prompt in confirming what he does. Now let the dogs of war bowl and go to 54,- 40——the prey has escaped them. The “national heart” needs not now to “be prepared for war.” A paragraph from :1 Liverpool paper of the 11th, which may be found among the news by the Great \Vestern, mentions the above intelligence as having been rumored on ’Changc, but does not speak confidently of its correctness. Our regular corres- pondent writes us under date of the _10th inst., that the war party in‘ ‘England, as well as here, was completely do\vn, but does not appear to have been aware that the terms of an arrangement had been agreed on. By the way, Mr. McLane only engaged to remain in London for a year, and will probably, in the course of the ensuing summer, return to his post as President of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. JV. Y. Jour. of Com. .flrr2'va.l of Jlfr. Web1s‘ler.——Tl1e unnotice- ment that Mr. Webster was expected to arrive on Monday ‘2'7th P. M. from New- York, attracted :1 vast concourse ofpersons to the station of the Boston 85 Worcester Railroad, about 5 o’clocI.-, for the purpose of greeting him on his arrival.—It being announced that he had arrived, he was most enthusiastically cheered, and alter he had taken his seat in a barouche provided for the occasion, Mayor Quincy in the name of the assembled multitude, inashort address, bade him :1 cordial and appropriate welcome. Mr. “lobster replied in terms expressive of his sense of the compliment paid him by so hearty a greeting, by so manyof his fellow-citizens. Several thou- sands of persons were assembled to give this spontaneous testimonial of their regard and after his address, a procession was formed to escort him to the residence of J. W. §Paige, Esq. During the march of the procession, the horses became so exci- ted by the acclamations of the multitude, that Mr. lVebster and those who accom- panied him were obliged to take to their feet.——Bos!. Adv. Jllr. C. J. IngersoIl.—VVe had forgotten, until the fact was recalled to our memory bythc Washington correspondent of the V. Y. Commercial, that Mr. Ingersoll, the de- famer of Mr. Webster, some years ago, in a like spirit of wantonncss, charged the late Chief Justice Marshall, than whom a purer man never breathed, with having been corruptly influenced in his celebra- ted decision in favor of ‘the constitution- ality of the United States Bank—a charge which! like those recently made against Mr. \Vebster, recoiled on him who made it. His appetite for slander must be insa- tiate. But, henceforward, his poisoned arrows will prove inuoctious, except to hiniself.-Rich. Vi’/rig. From Thom.psons’ Bank Note Reporter. The notes of the VVhite Plains Bank are again under protest, and it is now said the Bank will be wound up; its circulation is $32,200, as security for which the Comp- troller holds $18,252 New York state stocks and $14,000 bonds and mortgages. From these there will be very near enough to redeem the notes. From the Liverpool JlIcrcnr_1/, 10th April. There is little doubt that the offer from our Govcrment which went out by the Caledonia last Saturday——for it d.'¢l go out notwithstanding the ignorance ofour slow coach contemporaries on the subject——— will be accepted and finally settle this im- portant and long [the Oregon] question. The London Times devours Mr. Adams for his gospel claims to Oregon. VVhen be vindicated the British war on China by scripture texts, he was almost an inspired oracle for the same Times. The London Examiner of the 14th April, honors him with a column ofobloquy, under the head, Quincy fldams on Genesis. Suspender Factory Burnt.——Last night about_1‘2. o’cl’ck, a fire broke out in the large lndia Rubber Suspender Factory of 'Pritch- ard &; Co., situated near the west end of Chapel street, and it was soon totally de- stroyed. The building was built of wood and was about 100 feet in length. The whole loss is estimated at $l5,000—0f which $10,000 was insured. The loss in the building and machinery is estimated at about $S,0O0—-the balance is in stock and goods. The insurance was in New York Oflices.—-./\"ew Haven Palladium. The large building at the corner of Spruce and Nassau streets N.

Recent experiments have demonstrated that the new may be jotted down by the Magnetic Telegraph, at all the points be- tween Buffalo and Albunyat the some in- stant. , ‘ The English papers talk of the “brilliant victories in India,” as though their myriads of troops had been out in their parks shoot- ing game. it is humiliating ‘0 see how indifferent to the destruction of human life, nations and indivizlual become, when they are seized with the love of conquest. The British arms have been successful in the East Indies, thousands of human be-; ings have been slaughtered to avenge wounded honor, or to urge forward the advance of conquest, and tbejournals are in exliilaratiori‘ over the event. England has pushed onward her power, and exten- ded ber dominions in the East, from the very first, by a resort to the most cruel and barbarous measures—by sacking, plun- dering and destroying-—-by the most whole- sale destruction of human life——by wanton outrages upon the happiness of the natives —:1nd by every species of civilizecl barbar- ity which modern times have developed. And, this is a result over which the jour- nals of a christian country can exult and boast, with a__ satisfaction worthy only of beast of prey, or savage men who are in the dnr.-ness of heathenism._ The lust for conquest roots out every vestige of peace- ful or humane sentiment from the breasts of a nation. How long shall the pride of man, and the poison of vengeance desolate the earth, and make a mockery of life and all its high purposes.

The Temple at .N'auvco.-—VVe are grat- ified to learn that there is a prospect of converting the Temple, recently erected at Nauvoo by the Mormons, to .1 useful and most charitable purpose. A wealthy gentleman from the South arrived here a few days since, en route, to purchase the Temple, if it can be bought for a reason- able price. His object, we understand, is to convert the Temple into an asylum for destitute widows and females, and to pur- chase lands and town lots, and endow it out of the rents of them. The author of this liberal proposition, we understand, is a bachelor, far advanced in life. St. Louis Republiczm. ./Jo. Unscased Woman.-——A young woman was recently taken to the N. Y. City Hos- pital from Anthony st. with a broken leg, who goes by the name of“Johnny.,’ It is said she acted in the capacity of stage driver nearly three years on one of the omnibus routes in the city. Dressed in male apparel, she chewed tobacco, smoked slegars, drank brandy, and swore as val- iantly as any of her confederates, and her sex was never discovered. It was during this time that she adopted this name which is now the only one by which she is known. The low rates of travel on the Hudson river—‘.25 to 50 ccntsa passenger-—fill the steamboats daily with crowds. The new boat George Washington, which will be completed and put on the river in a short time, will be a powerful competitor.

'\Vith its mea- ger majority of 7 on joint ballot, and a minority Governor, it will be worth the while to look on just to see how it will discharge its responsibility in state matters. \Vill the license law be re- pealed in to to, or will the majority by tinkering it attempt to trim between the temperance and anti-temperance portions of the party '! The locos are clem'l_v committed for repeal, and can- not easily avoid that step. Should it be taken, the telnperancenien will kick. but after a little muttering will most of them go their death on Toucey, secret letters and all. The leaders know their troops. Against a repeal remun- strauces will flow in from thousands of the froc- men. of the state. The Registry Act, we suppose will come in for a share of regard. Although a most whole- some enactmcnt—accomplishing an objectwhich all claim to have at hcart—thc purity of the bal- lot box—yet so obnoxious is it to our order-lov- idg opponents, that they have ever looked upon statutes of this nature asinimical to the interests and success of their party. As a voluntary matter, to be resorted to in the primary, wards meetings of the city of N cw York, it operates to a charm, but it becomes a different affair when, as a statute it is used to exclude illegal locofoco votes. The purity of elections, as a thing upon the lips, is very well, but we will wage eternal hostility to its reduction to practice. Such is the honesty and consistency of the party. N o favor has been shown to any thing which the Whigs have done for the last two years. The whole course of legislation by that party has been virulently, and indiscriminately assail- ed. If these attacks have been sincere, and the party making them show their honesty by ap- plying the progressive principle to each of them, they have work enough marked out for a session of some length and interest. As they have the inajority, and the responsibility too, we can only say “go your gait,” your reign is a short one, it will be your own fault if you do not make it a ruerigy one. THE TRUTH COMING OUT. Mr. Chipman, a member of the House of Representatives from Michigan, is a rare speci- men of the Democracy. He regards Education as no great things, and has as great an aversion as Jack Cade had to any one who had been guil- ty of “erecting a grammar school." He made a speech, the other day, upon the Smithsonian bequest, and took occasion to say that “he had found, since he came to this lHouse, that modern Democracy was made of mighty flimsy, supple sl'q[]'.” . He need not have gone to 'W'ashington, to have learned that. He confessed his verdancy. A man who has watched, for half a dozen years the history of that party, must have long ago discovered that simple truth. Never was a par- ty made of such ‘miglzty flimsy, su-_pple stufl‘ as the present party in power. Mr. Chipman is not yet too old to 1earn.—C'ourant. £§?Thc New Haven County Temperance Society has adopted resolutions strongly recom- mending the getting up of petitions in every town in the State, praying the forthcoming Le- gislature not to repeal the present License Law. 1'£r7’A new morning paper to be called ‘Ben- net's American Herald,’ in the city of_N.

Tm: Purmc D1-:n'r or Tr;xAs.—A corres- pondent of the Journal of Commerce, writing from Austin, Texas, April 8th, says: “The Commitee to whom was refered the action on the Puplic Debt, have repor- ted that it is impossible to ascertain what part of the puplic_debt should receive par, and what part less than par, and how much less.—So their idea is to ‘lump it,’ and pay when they can about 50 cents on the dol- lar. There is in truth, there» can the at; present, no calculationjn the »Imtt.er.”' , _,,
