I ?. TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. Reported for the Journal. Charleston, June 6, 1850. One thousand bales of Cotton were sold to-day at 11J to 12^. The weeks sales amount to 3,600 bales, and the receipts for the same time to 4,000. W. Later from Europe. The steamer America arrived at Halifax on the ^ 4th inst., bringing advices from Liverpool to the 25th ult. From the telegraphic dispatches of the Charleston papers we extract the following items: The cotton market a Liverpool was firm at the >atoe nt'thn nrpivuliii? week, and the demand stca <iy. The sales of the week reached 32,000 bales, of which speculators took 6,000 bales. The accounts from the Manufacturing Districts \tere satisfactory. Late advicps from India were favorable, and it Xvaa thought the effect on commerce would be favorable. The withdrawal of the French army, it was thottght, was a mere ruse of Ministers for carry. jug the new election law. Circulation was given to the insulting note of Hussia condemning the policy of the British Government regarding the Greek question. The Paris correspondent of the London Times says, with regard to the difficulty with England, that Lord Palmerston's offer of Compromise had ._j ?j t, ^ oeen respecieu, aiiu uie urnui x i Uw,.l,,v?v? * willingness to accept any conditions consonant with the dignity of the French. The Ministers agreed with him. An attempt had been made to assassinate the King of Prussia by a sergeant of Artillery, who fired a pistol, wounding him in the arm. Nothing else of interest. Intermeddling Rebuked. In the sitting of the Presbyterian General As- | semblv, Old School, on the 27th ult., the delegate from the Massachusetts General Association having oresented a resolution from that body, on the | side of slavery, Dr. Breckcnridge, of Kentucky, olfered a resolution, which was adopted, declaring the General Assembly to be the best judges of all i matters within its jurisdiction, and that interior- ' ence froin the Massachusetts corresponding body [ is offensive, and must tend to an interruption of the correspondence between the two bodies. EDITORIAL GLEANINGS. Poirer's Ere.?A letter from Hirain Powers* dated the 5th May, received in this city, says: "Mv Statue of Eve (fortunately insured) was lost in the Westmoreland,' which was wrecked near Carthageaa, on the coast of Spain, not long ago. It has been got out, but as the vessel had been full of pu triij water for a month or more, ot conr?v in a damaged state, more or less. 1 know not yet how much."?Mercury. The Duke of Wellington had a service of plate presented him by the Portuguese government, which is worth halfa million of dollars. Judge Daly, a New York paper tells us, has recently promulgated the decision that a woman may not legally be held to bail for a breach of 'promise to marry, and that it is only the masculine gender who can lie so held for refusing to consummate such a contract. p I he Lropturea 11 ensure.?i/espatcnee receiveu at Washington from Key West, state that the ! money taken from Cardenas by the invasionists was returned to the Governor when he was liberated.

In procession we moved from the house of the deceased to the Senate Chamber?which was filled to overflowing.? Mr. Gurley, the Chaplain of the House, delivered an eloquent and appropriate discourse, replete with warnings which the occasion demanded, and with encomiums so justly deserved bv the deceased. After the services the procession formed for the Congress burying ground, and his body was deposited in the same vault where, a few weeks since, rested that of the great Calhoun. It is a wild, and sweetly romantic place ?a place well fitted for the great to lie?on the very banks of the old Potomac, where the ' - ...

Both houses adjourned over until .Monday, when I expect we will have a warm discussion on the amendments pending upon the Compromise Bill.? Cass and Webster will speak at an early day on the Bill. A tremendous effort will be made to puss it, but 1 think it must fail. Col. Benton has given notice to the Southern Senators that he will not interfere with them, as long as they wish to diseilss the Bill, but when they arc through, to give him notice, and he will move ' - -i m i i 1 ii to lay it on trie i unit*, aim men iv wine up my California Bill. Then the South will lnive :in issue, such as will enable her to unite her forces or declare at once in the face of the civilized world that she prizes hut little the liberty that was purchased by the blood of her Fathers. Burke, as \ou may see, has broken up his-relations to the Union?and Father Ritchie will do his best now to make it have a Southern look, with Northern tone, hut he is too late. I trust in less than many days we will have fl pa. per, Southern in tone and look. On the 2nd Tuesday of this month, the debate on the California question, in the House, M ill he stopped. The Southern men, many of them who are anxious to speak, cannot tfet the j floor, on account of the trickery of the Northern knaves. Perhaps it is well, for there is no use in speaking now. A thousand Southern speeches would not make the Government give the South her due. We have nothing, to look for from the Government, but oppression. It is perfectly useless to talk about gaining our Constitutional rights; the Constitution will hereafter be but an instrument to work our destruction more surely, from the very fact that an unprincipled majority will bend it to suit their own peculiar views. Ji nk 3.?Yesterday the Rev. Dr. Campbell, of Virginia, founder of the Campbollite sect, preached in the Hall of Representatives to a very large congregation. It was quite an able discourse; but lie would never lie taken to be tlu? founder of a sect. He appears to be about tiftv-five years of age. To-day, in the Senate, has been one of the most interesting of the session. Mr. Soule offered an amendment to the original bill, which was ordered to be printed. Mr. ('lav said he was glad to see the Senator proposing some plan, as he was opposed to that of the Committee. < The debate during the day was kept up in a very excited state between Messrs. Davis, of j < Mississippi, Webster, Cass, Downs, Butler, I Douglass and Hale. The Senate adjourned without taking a vote on the amendment of Chase, which was offered to the amendment of j Davis. Mr. Hale stated, in his remarks, a truth, of inneh interest to the South: That the question uf the extension of slavery was one of vital in- i terest to the North; that they need not talk of I legislating for Hanks, Tariff, or other property ; the grand question was Slavery; that in that, the North knew no Democrat?no Whig;? but all were as one, in toto, against the extension of slavery. This is the truth, and Mr. Dale is honest enough to tell it. Will nut the : South profit by it? When the enemy stands in one wide, unyielding, undivided mass, will she j j let discord throw division and consequent defeat ! upon her? Will she calmly and supinely lie, j j md say there has been no aggressionthe j , North don't mean what they say; it is only a j low Northern fanatics. When the mighty army ; if the North, as one man, are rushing on to Jestroy, what is the division in the North? Is j t shtrcry or nn sbtveiy? No, indeed, it is all 10 slavery. They only diller as regards the ; best mode of abolishing soonest. This fact we ' overlook?unmindful that the ultimate object of ;he most friendly Northern man is the abolition >f slavery. The Republic has endorsed the new paper, which will, in a few days have its lirst number from the Press. I cannot give you all of the amendment of Mr. Soule, as it is too long; but I will give you jne item: That the boundaries of California shall be restricted tu 3f?? 30', and South of that there should be no prohibition of slavery.? ' Fhere is no Constitution. Out of the Constitution the Union came, and by it had its existence as a confederated equality. There is, ; therefore no Union of .confederated equality. Flu's is the converse of that proposition?a mion of degradation to the South. If the South are not determined to remain thus degraded, with their bonds every day be- ' :oming stronger, it behooves them at once, j vhile they may, to proclaim their rights. 1'. | MARRIED?On the 2<l June, near l'almetto uaaemy, oy ho v. m>an uranam, loi. win. cuit'er to Mrs. Martha R.
