The bill to repeal the present tippling law was again taken up for dipriission in the ITonse of Representative yesterday. - Daring the discussion, Mr. Temple, one of the Representatives of this coauty, ex pressed himself iu favor of a repeal, or rather a modification of the liceu.se law. He was opposed to falling back upon what is known as the " quart law, " and favored the enactment of a law which should confer the power of granting license to sell spi rituous upon the County Court?. This, he considered, would free the license system of its most objectionable features. Under the present law, aiiy man who will pny the tax, can obtam a license from the Clerk of the County Court, no matter what may be his character. Rut if the power of granting license was conferred upon the County Court, with proper guards and restrictions, no man who is not a law-abiding citizen would apply for license, knowing, a.s he would, that the Court would not grant the license until they were fully sati?f n3 to his character. Under fiueh a law, Mr. Tem ple contended, the selling of liquor to slaves and other Improper persons, would be ef fectually 6topped, and other improprieties ut present connected with tippling aban doned. Ex-Gov. Rkowx, (Mr. Dunttiiigtou in the chair) stated that ho would not vote for the Maine Law, because he regarded it as impracticable, and he considered the present licen.se law an enorraoas curse upon t he people. He thought the " quart law, " in its effects, the best we have yet had, and if nothing better could be adopte 1 by the present Legislature, he was willing to fall back upon that law ; but he thought the " district law, " with certain modifications, an improvement upon the quart law, and was in favor of its adoption, as that would leave the people free to act for themselves in the matter, lie thought this law would alford the remedy needed to stay the tide of intemperance. Democratic Slate Convention. NIGHT SESSION'. Mr. CaviLt offered u resolution tiiat the committee t select Electors for the State at large, be instructed to recommend two f tillable persons for "alternate Electors" for the State at large, which was adopted. Mr. Thompson, of Maury, moved a re consideration of the vote adopting the reso lution endorsing the course of the Demo cratic delegation iu Congress from Tennes see, which motion prevailed. Oa motion of Mr. Thompson, the reso lution was amended so as to extend the en dorsement of the Convention to all those Democrats who were voting for Mr. Rich ardson for Speaker. The resolution as thus amended, was then adopted. Mr. L. C. Wagner offered the following resolution, which was adopted : "IUsolred, That the thanks of this Conven tion are due all the Democratic Speakers, and those old line Whips who a'wled in the over throw of the dark cohorts of Know Nothing iurn in the gallant Stute of Tennessee; and with out wishing to make iuvidioas distinctions, we think they are especially due the oIJ aud gal lant patriot, the Hon. A. V. Hrown, for his nervicee, and upon whose devoted head the vials of Know Nothing wratli and billingsgate clang were bo remorselessly poured." The committee to select Electors for the State at large, reported, under Mr. Cavitt's resolution, George V. Howies, of Bradley, and W. E. Travis, of Henry, as "alternate Electors." The President announced the State Democratic Central Committee as follows : For East Tenntfstr.. Messrs. T. C. Lyon, W. M. Churchwell, .1. G. M. Ramsey, W. T. Helms, John McMullen, D. H.

Currin, Sam'l McClaaahan, E. W. M. King, J. E. R. Ray, , R. J Chester, Henry McCorry, and A. S. Currey. Mr. W. T. Helms offered a resolution providing that tho Central Committee for each division of tlio. State be instructed to appoint a Central Committee for each Con gressional District, whose duty it shall be to co-operate with them in effecting au ear ly organization of the party. Objection being made to its adoption, Mr. Holms withdrew the resolution. Mr. Small, of Knox, offered a resolution recommeuding the formation of County and District Associations, iu order to secure a thorough organisation of the party through out the State, which was adopted.

The Rational Americana. , The American members of the Kentucky Legislature held a meeting oiTthe 4th in stant, and adopted the following resolu tions : Revolted, That the protracted delay in or ganizing the House of Kepre-entatirea in Con gress Ua'tributiLle loan effort of the so-called Republican and Democratic parties to make political capital out of the slavery agitation. JirtoireJ, That the American Party stands on the true conervnti?e ground, distinctly marked ot.t l.y the Philadelphia platform, and on thtt the battle ngiinstsectionalfein ought to be fought and can be won. lleohcl That the people of Kentucky heart ily approve the wmi of their Representatives in Congress (belonging to he American Party,) and of the patriotic men acting with than in the contest for Siker. And we earnot'j counsel them to perpevj-re, without yielding or modifying their position; and to leave the re Fonsibility of delay or dU-nter from not co operating, to t est on those who causelest ly re fuse to co operate in bringing this contest to a satisfactory conclusion. It gives U3 much satisfaction to place on record th;3 emphatic tndorseratpt of the noble band of conservatives who ha-rc steadily voted in the House of Represen tatives for Mr. Fuller. It is no more than what is due to then, fur tho gallant stand they have maintained oa truly national ground, resisting Dlack Republicanism on the one hand, and the Democratic agita tors on the other. They have done all they could do to prevent the triumph of sectionalism, and up to the close of the 8th inst., with success. If Ranks iu the end fchould be elected, it will not be by any dereliction of duty oa their part, for we feel assured that, in no eveut, will they swerve from their position. No, if the Black Republican banner is to be unfurled over the Capitol, it must be by the aid of others, of men voting for Richardson and professing to be National in their views. OIK FOREIGN RELATIONS. DENMARK AND THE UNITED STATES. Accompanying the President's tnessage, was the correspondence which has i'issed between this Government r.nd Denmark on tho Sound Dues t;nestion. AVo give below Secretary Marcy's letter declining to accede on the art of this government to the proooaition of a Con gress of European powers: Mr. Zliircj to Air. Ucdinger. Diri'AH MCN'T OF STATK, Washington, Nov. ISoo. Fin: I proceed to Ciiiiiinuiucate the Piesi deiit's reply to tho proposition of the Danish government lo the Uniit d Siutes to join in a convention with other powers interested in the "Sound Does,1' at C-pcnhage.n, for the jturpose of deliberating on that subject. The friendly relations between Denmark and the United States have never been interrupted. The President cherishes an ardent disposition to sustain ar.d strengthen them, and he would extretncl' regret that his determination to as sert what he believes to bo a just right in an unexceptionable manner bhould be regarded as an indication of disrespect for Denmark, or a want of a proper appreciation of her friend ship. The exactions n foreign commerce at the entrance iuto the IJa'tio have been a pro ductive source of revenue to Denmark, and it is very natural that she should struggle to re tain it. If these exactions were founded iu right, the United State. would be the last pow er to interfere with her enjoyment of them. It is not proposed to discuss the question of right in this communication; that lias already been done, and the United States have adopt ed the conclusion that they are under no obli gation arising from international law or treaty stipulation to yield to this claim. Denmark, on the contrary, has adopted a different and an opposite conclusion. . It is readily conceded that both rations are anxious to arrive at a satUfuctory solution of this vexed question. The subject interests beveral other powers indeed, all tuaratiino nations and Denmark has invited them to be represented in a con vention to assemble this month at Oopenha gen, to consider a proposition to be offered by her to capitalize this revenue, and to appor tion among commercial powers the sum to be paid for the renunciation of the present mode of collecting it. The United States have been respectfully invited to send a reoresentativo to the proposed convention. Without at all questioning the fair intention of Denmark in proposing this measure, the President feels constrained by a sense of duty to decline the acceptance of this invitation. The convention is to u.v-umo aa the b:tsis of its proceedings, the very right on the part of Den mark which the Uuiled Stales deny. It is as sembled without any power to pas upon the right of Denmark to levy n contribution upon foreign commerce, but only authorized to ad just the share to be paid by each nation in lieu of the collections theretorore assessed uiiou their respective vessels aud cargoes. The Uni ted Staits, however, contest their liability to jay any contribution whatever. The main question at is.ue between this government and that of Denmark is, not how much burden shall be borne by our commerce to the Ualtic, but whether it shall to bubjected to any bur den at uil. The pvo;osed tribunal, it will be perceived by the restriction upon its jurisdic tion, is expressly precluded trout deliberating ami deciding upon the only se: ious quescion al itsue between, (ho Uuited Mutts and Denmark. This is uot, however, the only difficulty which prevents tho President from consenting to be represented in convention, in ciauuiug an exemption of our ships and their carg.vs from taxation by Denmark at the straits ot the of the Ualtic, the President i? vindicating a great national ptinciple, of extensive and vari ous application. If yielded in one iustauce, it will be difficult to maintain it in others. If exactions upou our trade at the entrance into the Haltio were acquiesced in by the United State, f imilar exact ious might, on tho same principle, be demanded r.t the struits of Gibral tar and ifestina, at the Dardenelles, and on all great navigable rivers whose upper branches and tributaries are occupied by different inde pendent powers. Tho President cannot admit tho competency of such a tribunal as that proposed by Den mark as he would do it this government were represented therein to deal wit h a prin ciple of fcuch vat importance to the whole commercial world. There is another ground of objection to joining in the pro;scd convention quite as controlling as the foregoing. Tne government of the Unittd States will never consent to the pretension that the Xe,s World is to be appro priated U adjust the iiiicd balance ot the Old. It is cieftrly stated iu the proposition w hich Denmark has submitted to the United S:at.- that the convention is to act upon the question relative to the Sound duea in connec tion with the system of the European balance of pow er. It is moi-e than intimated that the former is to be subordinated to the latter. Of tl e cltility ur wiloin uf the political theory of the balance of power in its application to the Eurtju family of nations it is trot pro posed to txpre an opiniou, bnt enough of it operation has been aeeu to impress upoa this government a fixed determination to avoid being brought within its vortex. It has long been the cheiiahed xlicy f this guvei uiuont to avoid such a dangerous complicity, aud the Prot-ideiit will not yield iu any ca to ll.t slightest relaxation nf it. TLo fallowing quotation from the Danish document aubutittiug the Mip.iiiou to this S votueut will !; the intended connec tion dud commixture of the tAosubjecU: Beeid.-a this condition, there ia atil oinxber tsLich lha DaUh fOTeniiuft t coiisiJfr eseual, naiueij: tLal th affair ia queatioa the Sound daeaj be t.ol eonaiJcred as one Ot commerce or bio, titt as a pchticai ouo.

In pa.iUg c(Kjn tLe poli: jca qaestiooa pre- seated by this extract, this government cannot be indnoed to take any part ; nor will it sub mit to Lave its international rights restricted or modi Sod in subservience to the political theory with which the questions as to the Sound dues is intermixed in the Danish pro position. ' . ..; t In the paper submitted by Denmark to the consideration of this government there is an allusion to u tin taeriteaV the has made for facilitating tho navigation of foreign vessels through the Baltic straits. Any expenditure she haj intde for the safety and facility of this navigation may ctriftitute an equitable claim upon foreign powers for remuneration to the extent they have participated in this udran tge. The cjllt-ciions hitherto made have much ir.ra than compensated for these out lays, Wliile tho United States would not con sent to purchase a right which they consider indubitable the tree use of the Baltic sound they would not hesitate to share liberally in coinpeua.uing Denmark fr any fair claim for expenses she may incur in improving and ren dering fcii'e the navigation of the Sound. There is undoubtedly a necessity to keep up at a considerable expense, light-houses, buoyp, &, tor tho security of this navigation. For Mich expenses in future, disconnected from a claim tor surrendering a pretended right to control the navigation of the Sound and Belts, the United States are willing to enter into an arrangement with Denmark, and to pay a fair equivalent for any advantages to their com merce which my be derived from these out lays. Yoj, are, therefore, instructed to invite Den mark to submit a proposition on this subject, and to assure her that it will receive due con sideration from your ffoverninenf; but she must not expect that it will be favorably entertain ed if it should include, either expressly or im pliedly, any compensation for the enrrender of Iter pretended right to control the free use, by our ships, of the Sound and the Heirs of the Baltic. I am, sir, respectfully, your ob't ser't, W. L. MAKCY. To Henet Bedinoec, Esq., &c, &c, For the Daily Patriot. Texas Western nail road and Its Con atructiou Objectiona, Ac. The old saw "lltat it never rain but it pour," i perhaps as applicable to railroads as to any other institution of the present age. ' Let any railroad having for its object the attain ment of any peculiarly important and profitable result, be ever so much derided, and on paper pro ved impracticable or however meritorious, let it have been defeated or delayed in an possible way, the moment it becomes plain to everybody that it can be more quickly and easily constructed than any other having the same ol ject, thousands of the "knowing ones" rush to the rescue of what they have but lately declared to bo an impossible project. The above remarks are particularly applicable to the Texas Western llailroad. Shortly after its charter, on failure of its immediate and expected commencement, all manner of doubts were leveled against its practicability, and every variety of sneer and j'.-er thrown out against its projectors. Xo doubt the road was long delayed by the extraordinary cojmc pursued by those having it in charge. But this should not have affected the merits of the road, but should have stimulated, at it ha3 done, the efforts of those who have, at length, so euergeti cully and fortunately proceeded with its construe tion. The real merits and proximate eucrcss of the road now stand out in relief as bold and glaring as the mountains aud the snwos, which mus-t indefinitely block the construction of its Northern rivals all of which that are practicable, tho friends of the Texas Western Hailroad hope will be accomplished as speedily as practicable, without prejudice to its own project. It is a consequence of the merits and practica bility of the road that it has met with so much en vious and interested opposition. Envious, because based npon the impossibility of immediate and suo Oessful competition from aay other surveyed route; and interested as opposed to the plans of those who are directly connected with the great and growing commerce to the shores of the Pacific Ocean a commerce now expensive, dangerous aud dilatory, which this road, if energetically pushed forward, must soon make safe, cheap and speedy, thereby in creasing profits, lessening risks, and quickening returns. One prime objection was that it was to pass through a country without a population sufficient to construct it or to sustain it though this objection applies with ten fold force to any other route. Then there was the danger to be apprehended from the Lipans, and other Indian tribes. This also applies with much more force to any other route, and to Western Texas its construction must and will bean immunity against any further incursions of Western Indians. The Llano Estacado was magnified into a Sahara, without wood or water, and pronounced impassably ex-ept at occasional sea-tons of tbe year. The spurs of the Sierra Madre, loo, were the last nd greatest obstacle to the road through Texas. Tbese obsta cle, however, soon passed away before the advance of the engineer. Tbe Lbtiio E-itacado turns out to be, if not adapted to usual agriculture, a good grazing region, abounding with wild game at ali semtona of the year. The Southern slopo of this elevated plain along which the Texas road, on line of 82 degrees, will generally pais, pours out innumerable springs of gooJ water. These springs have within tbe last Summer been reached from the surface of the plain above by vtells a few hundred foot deep uot very difficult of excavation. The spurs of the GauJalope have been found to present fewer obstacles than the time distance through most parts of the Alleghaiiies. Ample stores of coal underlie the whole valley of the upper Brazos, aud from the Red river of Louisaua to the Bravo, no equal extern of the Union affords so many facilities for the construction of a llailroad. But then beyond Texas was that desert of the Colorado, so impassable and so worthless. To say nothing of the desert west of the Colorado, desti tute of water, timber, material or substance of any kind. And beyond and above all was the enow crowned coast range, the leirible and im passable Sierra Nevada. A full bat not yet perfect examination, has, how ever, developed the fict, thai tne Hi miles from the Bravo to the mouth of the Gila if not general ly as valuable for agricultural purpose as Western Texas, yet, has uuny detached and well watered Tallica. These are eaaily accessible by side tracks of ea-y temporary construction for tbe purpose of obtaining tiiuVir and other aupplioa during the con struction of the ro.d. The (iadsdefl purchase too, through which the rod passes, i probably tbe richest mineral region of North America. Water on the surface, in pools or streams, from the Bravo lo the Color a Jj L never wanting for over a days journey. West of the Colorado to the coast range, it Is any a here accessible by wells, iu the drye-t season, not over 10 to CO feet in drpth. No to'ioel are required throughout tbe whole route, and the greatest elevation to be over come is but liula over 6,000 feet, which will admit of gradients not more difficult than may be found on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. It has also been found within tho last year that there depresions in the coaatrauge, the nearest mountain lo tbe Pad So, by which a road may reach San Diego on a route whose distance need not much exceed an air-line. The last and seemingly greatest objection, was the harbor of San Diego. It was repeatedly published. uu vj'parouuy vwuprui aiifcuviiiT iwuak u u uui to be safely entered except at par ticular seasons, and thai it had not surBcient dpth or capacity to ac commodate the btuine&s of a road, lbs construe tioa ol which ta tie, moat Important object of modern enterprise). It ia true, that tba Larbor of San Ditgo La not aqaal that of San Francisco, tiiher for depth of wa ter cr for extent of surfac. But it baa been dtmoo suted that thera are ftwer raure scoeaaiUl and co safer harbor in lh world. Ia this retpect tt Is pref erable to that of San Francisco or New York, a ad ihia sill be trident by a g'aueo at lha direction by wlkh it it eutered aai the eooformauoa of a DU a'0 Bay. Ihe entraaca U about cus-fourth of a mil wida between bluff, rocky banks, with 6 to 7 fathoms or 38 to 42 feet of water. This entrance is by N. West channel, about parallel to the.gerwral direc tion of the coast. By an easy curve the bay trends to the S. and S. E., still parallel to the coast The entrance having a depth of water equal to 30 or 40 fet for a distance of 7 or 8 miles, with a depth ol IS feet ia the Bay at its southern extremity. It has a capacity to contain five times our naval and commercial marine, end ia more than ample for all purposes of the road of which it will soon be the terminus. The above Lets as to the facility of obtaining water Irora the Bravo to tho Pacini, (though established before) were given the writer yesterday by Mnjor S. P. Ueiutzeloian of the U. S. Army, now stationed at Newport, Ky., to whom all interested, are, by his consent, referred. .The facts givea relative to the harbor of San Di ego, are also from the same source. " TO BK CONTINUED. . Tns Anglo Frknch Alltaxck. There are preg nant indications that the intent cordlale between England and France hxs lost somewhat both of its closeness and cordiality, and that if even the came relations towards each other ate maintained by the two governments there is still a manifest cooVg offiu the feelings of mutual admiration and unity it first exhibited by tbe masses of the two countries. The exaggerated compHinentsandflomewhatfnlsome praise which the English and French press were in the habit of bestowing upon each other has been visibly pretermitted, the notes of accord from the camps of the allies are not so frequent or profuse as heretofore, and tbe cessation of these evidences of close and entire friendship has been quickly followed by fault finding and criminations that possibly portend serious consequences. The London Times lately scored Marshal Pelissier for bis inactivity since the fall of Sevastopol, and received in reply from the Paris journals, the admonition, coveyed in all the epigrammatic pointeduer-sof Frerch sarcasm, that England having done but litde towards the glorious achievements in the Crimea it did not be come her to criticise the conduct ot the nation that h id encountered the sacrifi es and accomplished all the valuable result of the war so far. The Times did not reply directly, but the following paragraph, introduced into an article on the peace rumors, has a significance, as well as n direct reference to France, not to be misunderstood. "Happily for us, we have within ourselves sources of hope and confidence which the adhesion of an ally cannot give nor the defection of tn ally take army. We may say it with pride, though we tru-t not with arroi;ance,that England is no necmnbiry lum inary of tte Kurojitan ty&tciA, shines by no borrowed lirht, and moves on iu a course little perturbed or affected by the attraction of other bodies What we are to-day we were yesterday, and shall be to morrow a nation laying no claim, indeed, to the character of a military monarchy, but a power whoe resaurces begin to develop theinselvcsju-t at the time when those of her rival: sic: (uut enemies) are exhaused." The great unwillingness of the British Ministry lo conclude a peace without another compaign i also, and pet haps rightly, attributed lo jealousy of the lion's share of laurels won by the French in the Crimea. The gallant assault of the Malakoff bv the French, and the lani ntuble failuie before the Redan is a thorn in the stout heart cf England, which she hopes to extract bv the aid of glory to be won on the shores of the Baltic next summer. She well kuows that her share in the war has not exalted her standing among the nations of Europe, whilst France h s won Lot only f in-, but has strenlun.- t an 1 improved her position. This f;ict is no doubt at the bottom of the growing jedousy between the two nations, already breaking c ut in iuuendors aud suspicions, oud giving color to the comments of their respective journals. It may yet exercise an important influence in the ultimate decision of an early peace or a prolonged war. Bah American. 'I lie Territory of Banvai. The Hon. Sterling O. Cato, the Territorial j; Judge, in a recent letter to his brother, of Eufanla, Alabama, says: "The people here are quiet and orderly, sharp and intelligent, a little rough in man ner, but warm-hearted and cordial. This is as fine a country as any on the face of the earth, and the profit of its produc ions would far exceed those of the cotton fields of the South. All kinds of grain, grass, clo ver and hemp yield a rich product. I have no doubt but that slave labor would yield in heron, corn and crain. at least from ! thirty to forty dollars per acre annually. I have seen no poor land; it all seems to me t richer than the best Chattalioochie bottom, and most of it is just such land as in the ad joining Missouri counties is now selling at from $20 to $50 per acre. Corn is now selling at 25 cents per bushel, and the product estimated at 1000 bushels per acre; and the hemp crop (G tons per hand) at $140 per ton, and you see at once how labor is more productive here than at the South. It is impossible to give an adeqnote idea of the beauty and fertility of the soil and country; generally rolliug, with out a great deal of timber, but as I understand abounding in coal for fires, and stone for build ing and fencing; food wells of waters can be obtained anywhere, bca des frequent streams running through the prairies."

The couuterfeit may be detected by the engraving, which is much lighter than in the genuine bill. The vignette on both genuine and spurous is a firmer on horseback, over seeing hands harvesting and loading wheat. One mark will enable persons to detect.
