DOST MEAN TO ADVISE. We make tho following extract from an article la the Journal of Satprday, relative to our re. marks on tho advisory attitude of that Journal towards somo of our political friends: . "Wo know that it resoralion similar In meaning, and almost identical fn language, with the 7th of the Sutto Convention series, was offered by the Editor of tbe Commercial at a thinly attended meeting held in the Masonic Hall during last March, and passed with a great deal of difficulty, by a majority of one. We know that several Whig gentlemen then and then denounced It; we know that delegates to tho 8tato. Convention, appointed at that meeting, refused to serve under any such Instructions a thOM Contained, In that resolution. We know, that a meeting was held sometime la the beginning of April, and resolu tions passed pledging tho members of that meet ing against ' the mode of amendment by Convert- ttoa, and also against any nominee occupying such a position.-: The language of the resolutions ii very strong Indeed. , Wo have simnlv alluded to this state of the case. It remains for the gen- uemea concorpea to ttfce sucu course as may seem duo to their own character for. consistency and sincerity. We obtrude no advice. We offer no suggestions for tho simple reason that the ad- pouiiau opponent i wncraiiy regardea with dlstra-it; as weU as the further reason that the gentlemen are fullv aomnetank ta Atvldn fur thoinsolvej-tnd nnles their calmer Judgment be misled by the excitement of party feeling, can have no doubt as to tho coarse which they should adopt to so plain a cast."

Mr. Webster, on his arrival in Boston, on Tues day .last, was net at the Ball Boad Depot by a Deputation of lira hundred citizens, who receiv ed him with nine cheers, Mr. Webster made a short speech from the platform to which he aaid the reception was quite unexpected. Of course it was no one could hare thought that Jonathan would have come down from the high sublimity offals position, in the worship of foreigners, to tico one who Is nothing bnt a native American citizen, and lias done no service except for bis conntry. . METQODIST CONVINTIOS. There was a lay Convention of Delegates of the M. E Church, held at Philadelphia, last week, held for the purpose of considering the propriety of having lay Delegates in the General and other Conferences. The following Resolution was unan imously adopted : Xtselved, That In the judgment of this Confer- enco. he introtiiction of lay dctyg&tea into the , ministerial confea-nces of Uigji; JS. Church. not called for by tb? spiritual wclra of tho Church, nor bv r.uy iiresumed ; n hor rela tion to o; iunuence u;,n the world around her; .una nil, uu in nuj uiuuucr cuuuiuuia lO 1110 usefuloesss of the Church in her peculiar mission the extension of Scriptural holiness over theso lands ana that it is our conscientious conviction, drawn from the experience of the past, as well as our just apprehensions of its necessary consequen ces, that so radical a change in tho organization and government of our Church cannot, in our o piniou, be otherwise than injurious to, if not eventually destructive, of the itinerancy and oth er peculiar features in its constitution. And that from the delegates attending this Conference, and the correspondence submitted from all sections of the country, we are Irresistibly led to tho conclu sion that such are the views and feelings of a vast majority of the members of the M. E. Church. rOS THE COMMfRCML LADIES' BENEVOLENT SOCIETY. This Society held its Anniversary, as previous ly annonneed, at the Masonie Hall, on Tuesday, April 18. The meeting was too small to do full credit to tho hearts of a female community like thia. When teill our ladies generally be awaken ed to the high responsibilities to which they are called by the Dispenser of all good and remem bering the words of our Lord, "Inasmuch as ye have done It unto one of tho least of these ye have done it unto me," claim his promise "Ask and it shull be given unto you V1 A sufficient number met however for the transaction of busi ness. The Report of the Treasurer showed thp receipts of the Society, (with a small balance from the preceding year) to have been about 899,70, viz : 40 on subscriptions and donations of various sums of from S3 to 80 amounting to $54,50. And can it be that only 40 ladies in thia 'large Town feel sufficient interest in the suffering class arouud them to give one dollar annually for their systematic relief! ! Wo know that much private charity is bestowed, but as Union is strength we might accomplish much now by uniting theso little rills into one large and ever flowing stream. This however is not all by which we have been enabled to aid our Poor. The Society being limited by its Consti tuiion to ta? relief of the "Sick, Poor' )ts djs- pensors through the kindness of a friend of hu manity, have had the distribution of a consid drable amount for the supply of fuel, clothing and other comforts to tho needy without such restriction. "Blessed Is ho that considered the Poor. The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble." Psni. 41. lv. The ladies would also acknowledge with plea sure a late Donation from a gentleman now re siding in another connty, who having been prosr pcrous in bis business while here, wishes to re turn his thank offering to the Lord In the place where he receive jbe benefit, and gives S20 tp provide meat fcr the Poor in this time of Bear pity when Market prices are too high for scan ty means.

' The alarm of Ore was sounded a litllo after flre o'clock yesterday morning, occasioned by the ac cidental ignition of a load of cotton aboard the ship Prentice, Capt. Woodbury, of New York, ly tog at Boyco's wharf. The various engines were immediately upon tho spot, when, after a contin ued play of some five or six hours Into the bold of the vessel, she waa sufficiently flooded to arrest the progress of the destructive element. Tho Prentice had stowed about 700 bales of Cotton, shipped by 0. A. Uopley & Co., of our city, on account of parties In Europe, and there insured. No serious injury has occurred to the vessel, and the amount of damage sustaioed by th nrra cannot at nreient be well ascertained. 1 1 Tha Annthilitor wu InthU instance trled.but I ' without succcs.-&uUm Standard, May 8.

On Thursday, In the House of Commons, the subject of abolishing the stamp on newspapers and the duty on advertisements camo up. Milner Gibs6n made a long speech in favor of abolishing an taxes on Knowledge, and introduced a motion to that effect Tbo Chaucellor of the Exchequer looked upon the question as one of revenqe, and stated they could not afford to lose l 600,000 per annum. At his suggnstion the discn,saioa waa postponed till Friday week. Sir J. Packington gave notice of a motion to bring in a bill granting a Constitution to N.Zealand and also stated that it was the intention of Govern ment to make an alteration in respect to the Cler gy reserves in Canada. The Peruvian Legation at Londen cautlonsf vessels against proceeding to the islands do Tier ra and Cobos Fuera without permission of the Pe ruvian government, under penalty of confiscation. J. Wentworth Butler has written a letter to the London Times denying that the Guano Islands of Cobos belong to Peru, as they were not enumer ated among her possessions when she declared her Independence'. Flax-planting is going on extensively in the North of Ireland. Tho overland mail from India brings intelli gence that the ship Fattabsalem left Madias on the 8d of December, with 284 native emigrants for Maucitius. During a sale on the 23d, the hatches were battered down, and every one perish ed by suffocation, j A remarkable statement appears in the Lon don Times respecting the course to be pursued ly Austria, and Russia in the event of Louis Napole on assuming the title of Emperor. The substance of it is that Prince Schwarzeuberg had addressed a circular to the European Courts expressing his conviction that Napoleon was about to erect an imperial throne, adding that Austria felt no alarm, and advocating tho claims of Napoleon to tho friendship and alliance of their respective Gov ernments. Prussia answered this circular on the 18th, and Russia on the 29th of February, and the tenor of both replies is that the two powers looked upon the design neither with favor nor hostility ; tjiaf tljey bejeyed he is disposed to follow the foreign policy of his uncle, and was now aiming to separate the powers in order to profit hereafter by that separation ; but that the three powers, by acting in concert, could keep him in check. Russia and Prussia, however, would recognise him aa Emperor, If elected to that office, but merely as an elected monarch, and not as the founder of a Napoleonic dynasty. In the case of Alderman Solomons a writ of er ror was being prosecuted to obtain the decision of the highest judicial tribunals. The ship Brilliant arrived io the D"wns, from Australia, with gold valued at $217,000. She also reports that the ship Statesman waa to sill in February, witu 80,000 ounces.

The Legislature of Connecticut met at New Haven on Wednesday. The Senate wu organized by the election of Jamea T.

The Governor recommends a Convention to amend the CopstituUon ; to substitute general laws as far as may be for special legislation; to the hours of la bor; to abrogate capital punishment; to aid tho conynon school fund by levying a small tax In the school districts ; to reform, the laws relative to pauperism., and to protect ! laborers employed in the construction of railroads by a lien upon those works for their labor. The Governor is opposed to the enactment of the "Maine law." He regards the late adjustment of the questions which bad disturbed the peace of the country as final. LATE FROM MEXICO. We have accounts from the city of Mexico to the 17th of April. The Trait d Iaiemof the 14th states that iho Tebuantepsc treaty had been rtjecttd by the Cham ber of Deputies, but one vo: beln; recorded in its favor. This took placo on. (he 8th. The same journal xt tho 17th announces the arrival at Mex ico of Mr. Btrell, a siwoial and confldentbtl mess- WJir from the Ouited States, who, it was thought, was the bearer of proposals, from, our Government for auother treaty. The one rejected by the Mexican Congress is known as the Pedraza treaty. Mr. Larralnzar, the newly-appointed Minister from. Mexico to the United States Usft the capital for this city soon after the rejection of the treaty, aqd sailed from Vera Cruz on tho 15th. It 1 said that he has Instructions for the fluai settle ment of the Tehuantepec difficulty. Nat. Int. MR. CLAY'S HEALTH. Washinoton, May 7th.

Jones, a boot maker io Ann street, recovered a verdict p,f five thousand dollars against Geo. Wilkes, editor of the Police Gazette, for publishing a libel against the charac ter of the said Jones, in which he was accused of boing a participant in the robbery of the jewels of the Patent Office at Washington. Wo believe a similar action comes on to-day against the Sun newspaper, for having published the samo story against Jones, at the instigation probably, of Wilkes, or some of his agents at the time. An Irish laborer, apparently about 80 years of age, whose name is unknown, yesterday afternoon placed himself on the track of the New Haven Railroad near Fordham, just before the arrival, at ; that place, of the 4 o'clock express down train. The Engineer saw bim on the track and Bounded the whlstlo, and had the breaks put down; but J before the speed of the train could be checked he making no effort to escajie, was knocked do n and the train passed over bis neck, causing almost instant death. MR. MANGUM. This gentleman's speech in relation to the Pres idency has met with pointed disapprobation from the entire Whig Press of the 8tate, so far as we have been ablo to learn. This is just as it should be. He acknowledged in his speech that in ad vocating the claims of General Scott, ho was not reflecting the wishes of his constituents; and it is written: lie that knowelh his master's wU and dotth it not, shall be beaten with many stripes.
