Dear Sir: Since I addressed my fellow-citizens of How ard, at Fayette, on Monday last, I have learned that nolhwithstanding the ex plicit avowal of my decided opposition to the Wilmot proviso, nnd the declara tion that if elected, and the question was unsettled, I would vote against it, and oppose its passage by every means in my power, I have been represented as being in favor of that obnoxious measure. To those who heard me upon that occasion, it is unnecessary to say that such statements are untrue. But I beg leave to say, that I may not be misunderstood or misrepresented, that I am noio and have ever been opposed to the Wilmot Proviso, in every shape in which that question has been present ed, and if elected, will continue to give it my active opposition. Very respectfully, Your friend, And ob'nt servant, JOHN G. MILLER. COLUMBIA CONVENTION. Nomination of A. McKinney His Declination The Benton Conven tion met at Columbia on Monday last. Twenty delegates were in attendance, representing six counties, viz: Cooper, Moniteau, Cole, Howard, Monroe and Boone. John Miller presided over the Con vention, assisted by Wm. Canoi.e, of Howard; and L. J. Eastin, of Boone, acting as Secretary. Gen. G. W. Miller, Lt. Gov. Price, end L. J. Eastin, addressed the Con vention, and are represented as having been very bitter against the Green fac tion. Strong resolutions were passed, ond earnest protestations made in be half of their nominee. Adram McKinney, of Randolph, was unanimously nominated for Con gress. Mr. McKinney was at Fayette, attending the Circuit Court now in ses sion, and although not officially inform ed of his nomination, declines the great ness the partiality of his friends would thrust upon him. Whether the compa ny ho was in at the head quarters of the clique, had anything lo do with his declination or not, we leave others to form their own opinions, but it looks to us a litllo suspicious. Candidates. In Carroll county we learn that Dr. D. II. Dewew, (Whig,) is a candidate for Representative. Creel has no opposition for re-election as Sheriff. In Linn county, Wharton R.

The following resolutions were introduced by Mr. Smith of St. Louis, and adopted. Resolved, 13y the several delegations 01 this Convention assembled, that the report or the Lonimiltee ol .thirteen in the U. S. Senate, selling forth the present distracted and alarming slale of our naiional interests, and urging the preservation and perpetuity of our glorious confederacy, in opposition to discord end disunion, meets our hearty, cheerful, and undivided co-operation, as the best remedy to insure continued prosperity to our common country, and causa peace and harmony lo triumph over the present disaf fected materials that form a part of the Amer ican Congress, and we sincerely trust that the same may be adopted speedily, and be, come the sentiment of ell parties.

Tho nomination of Mr. Darby was warmly greeted by tho St. Louis press He will make an able representative, and should receive a cordial support from the Whigs of the District. WHIGS OF RANDOLPH, AWAKE! Huntsville, Mo., Moy 30, 1850. Dead Sir: Without any caucus or con vention, the Whig ticket for this county 1 believe is complete, for the coming contest in August. Nicholas Dysart ond Benjamin Haley, two good and true Whigs, are out for the Legislature. The Democrats have been working the wires for some lime past to effect a compromise, and run n Whig and Democrat. . They found tho old saying was a true one, that a house divided cannot stand. They are so split among themselves that they feared they could iiot rally thedif ferent factions, and unite their force upon any two Democrats; hence their willingness, and their magnanimous generosily, in being satisfied to send a Whig and a Democrat to represent Randolph county. But the Whigs are too old to be caught in any such trap; they have battled too long, and under such adverse circumstances, that they are not wiN ling now, when they see a small glimmering of hope rising to their vision, to yield half their ground, when such fluttering prospects are ahead for the whole. The Democrats have but one candidate out yet. They have been waiting patiently to sea if their bait would nut catch fish, Col. M. Horner has declared himself a candidate, so I under stand; a very clever man bytheby, but most too much of a Democrat to represent Ran. dolph this time. 1 supposo now that the Whigs have candidates in the field, ihey will look around them, and bring out another man. Col. II. is anli.Ber.ton, strong; and so will their other candidate be, I predict; and if I em not very much mistaken, there are at least a few Democrats in tho county yet who love old Tom too well to support any man who denounces him, and supports ihe Missouri resolutions. Hardin Taylor is the Whig candidate, for Sheriff, and a very popular man, and deser vedly so he will make a strong race. Isaac Wilcox, a man universally liked by ell who know him, 1 expect will be the Whig candi date for Assessor. He is adverse to running, but his friends seem to think ihey cannot lei him off. With such a ticket, tho Whigs in old Randolph ore bound to ba successful. They ara all men of integrity and moral worth, and can and will unite the whole Whig force, end that is all lhal is necessary for success, Bean and Hancock Jackson, are the can didates for the Senate in this District, and from all tha indications at present, Been will win the race. Respectfully yours, &c, RANDOLPH. liZrWni. H. Swiizler, Esq., has been appointed by the Governor of tho State, as Notary Public fur the city of Bruns wick. Missouri. By Teicgraph, for the St. Louis Tress. Washington, May 28. Senate The Senate proceeded to consider Mr. Bradbury's resolution rel ative to removals from office. Mr. Webster moved that tho subject be postponed until , Thursday next. Mr. Hale wanted to know if Mr. Brad bury would object to going a little far ther, say lo the year 1841, and request an account of removals made then. Mr. Turncy addressed the Senate in relation to removals recently mado in Tennessee, charging the President with having violated his pledges by remov ing high-minded, honorable and com petent men from offices of trust and profit in that State, to the injury of their feelings and reputation. The resolution was then posponed till Thursday. The Senate then resumed tho, con sideration of the Compromise bill. Mr. Underwood, having tha floor, address ed the Senate, contending that those who had gone before him had assumed wrong premises when they assured us that Congress had no power to legislate for territories; he proceeded to argue that Congress possessed that power in various ways, and that it was given by implication in the constitution. Ho also argued the propriety and philanthropy of permitting the diffusion of slavery. When Mr. Underwood concluded, it was proposed to take the question upon Mr. Davis' amendment. Mr. -Berrien remarked that the Sena, tor was not present, and hoped that be fore so important a question was taken, somo intimation would be given of the time. Mr. Dayton had supposed that there were other Senators who designed speaking on the amendment. He in tended, at somo stage of tho bill, to ad dress the Senate on thegoneral subject; there were, however, many absent who would desire to be present when the vote was taken. He hoped then, that tho taking of the question would bo postponed. Mr. King pressed an immediate vote, and desired to address the Senate upon tho general subject after the amend mcnt had been disposed of. Mr. Chase moved to amend Mr. Da vis' amendment by adding the following "provided further, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as author izing or permitting tho introduction of slaves or of holding persons as proper ty in said territories. " Mr. Dayton moved tho postpone ment of tho further consideration of the question until to-morrow at 1 o'clock. Negatived. Mr. Clay said, ho understood the pur port of Mr. Davis' amendment to be this a provision excepting from res trictions upon the Legislatures of Ter ritories tho power to pass a law for the protection of the rights of property held or introduced into a territory con formably to the constitution and laws of the U. S. He had no particular objection to that amendment, because it only asserts an effect which would follow without its introduciion. Mr. Davis denied that ho designed or desired his amendment lo carry any im plication as to what were tho rights of tho South under tho constitution; he never had end never should permit Congress to measure those rights; he simply desired Congress to abstain from touching thoso rights either way. Mr. Halo spoke. Mr. Dodge, of Iowa, followed and denounced tho doctrine held by Mr. Halo and by thoso who think with him; he declared his opposition to the Wil mot proviso in every shape and fornn After some debate between Mr. Day ton and Mr. Berrien, in relation to the effect of tho pending amendment, the Senato adjourned. House. The House went into com mittee of tho Whole, ond proceeded to consider tho special order of tho day, being territorial business bill, making further appropriations for public build ings in Minnesota and Oregon. After somo remarks by Mr. Sibly the bill was laid asido to b; reported to the House, as were also the bills providing for the construction of certain roads in Min nesota, as also the Senato bill authori zing tho President to enter into treaty with tho Indians of Oregon for tho ex tinguishment of their claims to lands west of tho Cascado mountains, and regulating Irado with them. The bill to appoint a surveyor gen eral for Oregon, and to grant lands to actual settlers in that territory was de bated without being disposed of. Tho committeo roso, when tho bill making appropriation for public build ings in Minnesota and Oregon was passed. After which tho House ad journed. Washington, May 29. Senate. Mr. Clay presented a pe tition from citizens of Berks County, Pcnn.i asking a modification of tho ta riff, so as to afford adequate protection to the coal and iron , interests; he re marked that ho hod heard with regict that their interests, as well as other manufacturing interests in various parts of tho county, were greatly suffering; of ono thing wo might be assured, that until this ogitation of slavery was dis posed of, in ono way or the other, none of their interest could receive any at tention on the part of Congress; he moved that the petition be laid on the table. Agreed to. Mr. Seward moved for the printing of the correspondence between the Ex ccutivo department and Generals Per cifer F. Smith and Riley, in California sent into the Senate a few days since. Agreed to. House. On motion of Mr. Jones, it was ordered that when the Honse adi journed to-day it bo till 8 o'clock, when the adjournment be made till Monday next for the purpose of having the hall put in summer trim. Bill for constructing certain roads in Minnesota was passed. The bill authorizing tho President to negotiate a treaty with tho Indians of Oregon for relinquishing their claim to lands was taken up and passed. The House then went into n committee of the whole and resumed the biil to ere ate the office of Surveyor General of public lands in Oregon, to provido for surreys and make donations to settlers of public lands; the amendment pend ing was to confine donati ons of land to freo whites. Mr. Giddings earnestly opposed it, and spoke of the intelligence and pa triotism of many blacks. Mr. Fitch said, whether it was adopted or not, it would make no difference, as the people of Oregon had excluded negroes, be cause they amalgamate with and lead the Indians to mischief. Mr. Sackctt contended that tho legis lature of that torritory had no power to exclude any colored people, and if congress sees fit to make a grant of land to whites, the blacks had a right to a grant for their benefit. Mr. Conrad thought that Mr. Gid dings was in some degree concerned with the negro race, ho was of opinion that it would benefit both races to dif fuse over tho country on the Pacific. Mr. McMalton replied to Giddings and said, it was true that Virginia blood was of noble character whether in view of whito or black (laughter,) if ho (Gid dings) goes to Virginia, he will bo invi ted to associato with that race of which he is the peculiar friend. Several oth ers mado remarks, when tho amend ment to insert free white was agreed to, 07 to 51. Tho House then ad journed. i iTTSouncii, May as.

The Charleston Courier publishes a letter from Havana, which slates that some con victs whom Lopez liberated at Cardenas rei fused to join him, and the departue of the expeditionists was hastened by their obscrv. ing the people of the country flocking in wilh hostile demonstrations. The govern, rcent has declared the island in a state of blockade; but it is believed that merchant vessels in lawful trade will not be exposed to any inconvenience. In the fight at Cardenas, a company of lancers who charged on Lopez's troops were all killed. Lopez had possession of Carde nas 18 hours, when reinforcements of troops from Matenzas arrived. The fighting then commenced in earnest. The expeditionists had 30 killed and wounded, end the Span, iards from 100 to 150 killed ond wounded. They continued fighting and retreating until (ho expeditionists gained tho steamer Creole and'sailed. The vessel was followed by the Spanish steamer Pizarro, Lieut. Jones, of Alabama, one of the wounded who received a ball through his right side is at Key West. The letter giving an account of tha landing and fight says, that when the expeditionists were within six yaids of the Governor's house they were received with showers of bullets from the tops of tho houses, windows and piazzas which wounded Cols. Wheat and O'Hara and many men, but none mortally; the expeditionists returned the fire with great spirit. The battle lasted one hour, when is while flag was shown from the Govi einors house. Soon lifter several citizens renewed the firing, when the - expeditionists set fire to the Governor's hoosc, compelling him to surrender wilh his staff and 100 men in all, who were placed in the barracks. The expeditionisis remained in quiet possess. ion of the cily till evening, wilh the excep, lion of Gen. Lopez and staff and Captain Logan, of Ky.; with 25 men, who went on board the Creole. At this juncture. 200 lancers and cavalry made their appearance, and the fight was resumed which lasted near ly en hour;' 12 of the expeditionists were killed and wounded, Including Capt. Logan, who died subsequently on board the Creole, The Spaniards lost all except 12 so says our dispatch. Oapt. smith was slightly woun ded. Quarter master Loxies, of Miss., who was wonnded has since died; Mai. Hawkins, of Ky., is seriously wounded, one of Lopez's stall is wouuded and another missing, .

Hundreds of cases, many nf them citizens of St. Louis and others from abroad, havo been cured williin the Inst few months in tho city of St. Louis alone, while letters from agents abroad show, also, that it is-performing the same wherever tried. Many of thoso were Chronic cases of long standing, and all hope of recovery had been given up. Whila others were of more recent dale; of tho acute inflninatory form, very severe. All however, yield to the- wonderful virtues of this medi cine, and thousands who have realized its benefits, nVl are now in the enjoyment of health, can but esteem the original discoverer and proprietor, a benefactor of mankind. It is well known frum the experience of tho past, that no outward explication can possibly effect a permanent cure i-f this dreadful dis easo. By the application ot stimulating lini ments, partial relief, in somo cases, maybe obtained for a short time. But all the while this disease is fixing its grasp more perma nently in tho system, and sooner or later will again develop itself in a more dreadful form, and after a few periodical returns, it settles into a chronic form, which, if not soon arres ted, ruins the individual for life. This is ver ified by the history of the pastin all countries, and more lully demonstrated by tho history furnished of late to the proprietor of this Com pound, bs given by several hundreds of thoso who have passed under his immeniate notico and treatment during the last few months. MO RT I MO RE'S RHEUMATIC COM POUND AND BLOOD PURIFIER is an in- . ternal remedy commences its operations where the disease first originates, and, in pu rifying the blood passes through tho wliolo system, neutralizes the impure, or caustic sed iment which has settled upon the membranes muscles and tendons removes it entirely from the system, and restores the individual to porlect health. Let those who arc afflicted not deceive themselves, and put off the use of this medi cines too long, or until their limbs are dislo cated or contracted to such a degree that they are cripples for life. The experience of hun dreds of thousands during tho past, as well as a multitude at the present day, demonstrates the folly of expecting permanent relief from external application. The proprietor of this valuable medicine knows, from experience, that no outward ap plication can possibly effect a permanent cure, where this disease is firmly fixed in the sys tem. He can and does prepare and apply em brocationia very accuie cases, which will givo relief in one hour's time, but this will not effect a permanet euro. The nature of this disease is such that it requires longer time, and an internal remedy, to produce the de sired effect, and Mortimore's Rheumatic Com pound and Blood Purifier is the only remedy that has ever been discovered, either in Amer ica or ony other country, that will effectually cure this disease.
