The Star in feasted by Mr. Cllngm tn to uy that lie

aVmt the Colt Investigating >>tnrnitte?\ an 1 states tint
he In (hut gentle lau'n projence, that though he
regretted the annoyance which tlio investigation Tiii<ht
jthe to some of hi* per?onal friends. mor? esp >c.ally
Coming through himself, ho l>*lioved the result woul I
justify all he hud xalil ou the mibjeet Id the debate."
The conversation alluded tn wts direotly with us, In an
Interview nuu^ht l>y Mr. Clingtmtn, anil aalt **n upon a
public Hubjeot, we felt do hojitr.tijo in mentioning It.
It wae not a conversation helil by Mr. Clingrn <n which
wehappened to overhear, fur wc repeat no auoh couver
nations, or auy others of a private character. Mr. CU.ig
iuc.n volnntn-lly stated tha he had made muc.h graver
charges than he intonded, aud that as he saw it annoy?<1
his friends, he regretted he had gone so far as linking for
? committer upon mero rumors. The debate on Satur
day proven that he started nut with charges agtin->t
members, which he avowed afterwards he did not suppose
be had mxlo. So it is with the conversation all hie 1 to;
hoaaid moio than, perhaps, ho im?glned. We havo no
leason to believe Mr. Clliigman la not actuated by the
beet motives. and that he is not a highminded ta?a.
Upon the present occasion, however, ho has evidently
been at sea from the commencement, and when hU evi
dence is published it will be seen that be has beoa labor
ing under a, hallucination, which has obscured hi*
judgment and induce: nlm to make humiliating charges
agalnat the honesty of gentlemen equally highmlnded
?nd honorable as himself.
It most be token as evidence of strong confidence in
the honesty of the Colt application to 8nd sixty-four
gei tlomen to-day desirous of acting apon it without
awaiting for tho committee to report. It will be much
more satisfactory to the publi), however, first to hrar tho
report of the committee, whioh, of course, wiU be made
early nest week.
Notwithstanding the favorable rumors from here aa to
tho probable ratification of the Reciprocity and Fishery
treaty, some of the most intelligent Senators express the
belief that it cannot be ratified this session. Tbesubjeot
has not, hewevor, yet been up for consideration, and any
opinion* expressed are merely these of individual mem
btrs.
Latt week, It will be remembered, a good deal of ex
citement wua caused by the discovery that an interlope
tion bad teeu made in the Appropriation bill, which wae
n*?*1fcorr/e<l by the committee. An investigation wai
talked of <o discover the perpotrator of the frand. It is
now said that It can bo traced directly to a member of
the House, who enjoys an unenviable reputation in con
nection with a former transaction. I<et us have the
facts.

the Mil, and ask tbatwavc.
Tbe Mil was then read for the first time by its title.
Mr. ? iia?* resumed?The bill which I h?ve just Intro
<lnced is very brief. It enact* that there shall be neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude, otherwise than ia the
Snifhinent of crime, in any Territory in the Totted
itea. Its work* of prohibition are tho-e proposed by
Jefferson in 1784?their soo[>e ts tbe same. Ia 1784 Jet
ferecn propo^d to prohibit * livery la all the Territories
0> tbe W d States, and Ml bill proposes the snme nr?
hibitiou llie prohibition of Jefferson was looorpo
?.ted in the oidinanoeof 1787. and thus became a la'v
throughout the whole territory then subject to
federal legislation. It was renewed la the art for
the admission of Missouri au<l applied to the otbor
ngiot west of tbe Mississippi md north of M :<n
At thl ci ft ion this ancient policy of prohibition bas
keen reverted by the lepeal of tho eighth section of the
Missouri act. The Kansan and Nebraska act substitutes
the p< lley of slavery allowance for the policy of slavery
prohibiten. I have no wiah to renew the discussion ot
thin great riuestlon at this time. I merely wish to give
notice by the introduction of this MU that the legisla
ture wWeh repeals tbe Missouri prohibition, and reverses
the policy of Jefferson, Is not acquiesced ie, and thit
there is a settled purpose ia the conntry to rein
state tbc prohibiUor, and etbnd it to a! national
territory I do not ask that the MU shall be referred,
nor do I Invoke any action upon it at this session, now
nearty exr ired. Tbe Senate la fre?h from the discussion
of the subject, and its decision ts fixed. If I shall have
the honor of a seat here at the next session, I propose to
?abmit the bill to diaeusaion and vote. In the mean
time, I invoke the judgment oi the people
Mr. Josw, (whig) of Tsnn.. said ha wished the Senator
would place hU bill In such a position that it wctild be
in order to move to lay It on lb* table. He desired to
make tliat motion, in order that It might be seen bow
many tin tors there were for or la favor of such a mea
sure
Mr. said that the Mil would come up to morrow
on its aeeood reading, when the Senator amid make such
a motion, and have the test vo'* ne wanted.
Mr. Pvwabp, (fNe soil) of N. Y., said that a* this
matter was likely to eomc up to mem w, and as he ex
pected to be absent at the time, he desired now to sey,
if present, he weald vote for the bill.

[Fro* tbe West Indian, (Bridgetown Paper.) Jun? 9.]
For the Information of our readers we give an
account of tbe flpread of tbe cholera, ana of the
steps taken to relievo the sufferings of the poor,
oiid to check its fatal effect*. It first appeared on
tbe 14th of lust month, in a wooden hovel in a ntwet
running into Bay street, not far from the Hospital.
A black woman died there from it after a few hoars
illness, and two other Jeaths within threo <iavs.
It has been said that it wax brought to Barhadoes
from Jamaica, where it isprevuiling in the Derwent;
tbat ?ome seamen on board of her died of it ob the
parage, and the clothes of two of them belonging
to this place were brought here and given to the j
person to be washed, in whose U ?use is first broke
eut. But the troth of tho statement has not been
ascertained. On tho occurrence of the first ca?es,
the symptom,* were not considered by the medical
men to be thomyof Asiatic cholera, ft was thought
to be only an aggravated form of common diarrhT-i ;
?a disease frequent in Barhadoes. However, the |
Health Commi-sioncrs lost no time in cautioning I
the inhabiting against anjthinK likely to bring on j
complaints of the bowels, and recommended the
adoption of means for the prevention of the spread '
of the disease.
Opinions differed about tho character of the j
<JJtasK); which soon, however, showed tbat it was
'epidemic, in the first, week. The number of cases j
atd deaths increased, and they were mostly found |
among tbe black people, and in the lilthk-t and j
closest part of the town, l'rom the Bay the disease i
spread lot ) tbe close lanes in White Park and a}jont
Ht. M?rj'j. A meeting of the B >ard of IbtRh w(b?
aeain held, and the fearful truth ooolH no longer be
disguised or iieo>od, that Asiatic, or ut any rate, a
rnn-t fatal type of choleia, prevail jd in Bridgetown.
The remedy found most efficacious was camphor.
We seem as ignomnt. indeed, of the treatment nt
the disease In its full development as of Its origin
au<2 nature.
At the < nd of the seconl week the eyes of the
public were opened to the reality and extent of the
danger, when they saw tbe numerous corpses car
ried through tho streets, five or six in the aamc
hcarce, with no funeral procession. like so much
merchandise, under the care of the undertaker
alone, oonslgned to tbe grave. The burials were
too numerous to be admitted into the church, and
to have tbe funeral services performed over them.
Their interment was left to be provided for by the
sexton, the undertaker, and tbe grave diggers
Tbe clergymen turned their attention from tbe
dead to the living. They went about visiting the
stick, with restoratives in their pockets, and reliev
ing tie destitute. The Interments were made in
the ground of Bt. I-eonardi, a recently erected
chapel, in the Weetbary road.
Over four hundred corpses were buried there in
a few days. Tbe soil being of marl, the graves
could not, witboot great labor, be carried to a depth
of nix feet; and sometimes two coffins wero put
Into the mime grave. Tbe smell arising from the
ground became so offensive that the grave diggers
could no looger t-tand it. All the houses in tho im
mediate neighborhood were deeert> d. Ht. I<eonardN
was becoming a seat of pestilence. and it was for n(t
necessary to provide another burial place. Op. the
same ro:id, tear tbe btach, between BrandonNbath
ing house and Fontabellc, four acres of )'*nd was
Cared, and tbe interments were mgr,ved there
8t. Leonard's. They bad now 'reached tbe
frightful number of two hundred Is one day. In
tbe morning score* of cofina are to ^een Ism ei>ic
by aide on the ground, waiting to be pot into
graves.
la tbe meantime the authori'jM owd every ex*r
ttoqle provide against th^ftcti of thia dxwdfcl
calamity. It hs* be* n thought neeeaaary to mike
amusements to. (blouiugtlie occupants of n tuaea

there was a good deal of thunder nud liKbtning.
What the effects of this chanere will be on the cpMc
