Senator Halsted of Wyoming Co., who brokehis leg some weeks ago, ia itill confined by tbeaccident, and will not be able to take his aeat tillnear the fjJoM of the session. He ia a Republican,and hii absence renders a clear Republican majorityin our preient Senate at least doubtful.

A dispatch from New-Orleans stater that Vi-daurri, after all expectation!, has succumbed t<> theGovernment, and agreed to obedience.

We print in another column the letter of Mr.Edward Oa 1 Mnvan with reference to the stateand prospects of the cause of Liquor Prohibition.In this letter he corrects two erroneous statement*which be attributes to us.namely:

1. That he voted u^uinst Messrs. Wood andMullin, Republican candidates for Appeal JoifMin 1866. He did not vote at all at that election,but th'uks he should have voted for Messrs. Woodand Mullin if any how.

2. He says that tbe Court of Appeals last Winterdid not decide that Liquor already in our State be¬fore the Prohibitory Act was passed cmid not bedettroyed under that Act; though he admits that" tbe belief that they had done so whs universal" when the judgment was rendered.".As to the first of these points, we desire only

to suy that it ir just as notorious that Mr. Delavan'scourre with regaid to the election of 1865 power¬fully contributed to the defeat of Messrs. Woodand Mullin and the election of Mr. Com-took ai itis that such a man livea as Edward C. Delavan.It MODI that we were in error iu supposing 'hathe vo'ed for the ticket that hud the full benefit ofhis influence.he did not vote at all, having rcent-Ij ehunged his residence. How much he desired toTote, it is not worth while to inquire. We will tryto jenicinbcr henceforth that he did not vote in1866,. Not having found time to study Mr. M'Coy'*

demonstration that the Court of Appeals' decisionon the Prohibitory Liquor Law means just the op-potdte of what everybody else has hitherto supposedit to mean, wo cannot sty how convincing it maybe; but this we do kuow.that decision practicallypuralyzid and broke down the Prohibitory Act, andevuybody has since sold rum who chose to do so .

at,d is still eelling. If Prof. M'Coy has discovereda new reading of the decision which makes it up¬hold instead of overthrowing Prohibition, wo trustbe and Mr. I>davan will proceed to make that read¬ing effective forthwith, by prosecuting and shuttingup the drunkard-manufactories. Do hurry up tbe

sorely needed fruits of that reinterpreted decision'We Whit e all question as to the soundness of Prof.M'Coy'b demonstration.we will take its correct¬ness for granted if it will only restore the elTi.-aeyof Prohibition.Mr. Delavan is "glad to see" that we "ttOOg-

" nize the truth that the friends Of* Tempera let

"and Prohibition are not limited to oae politicU" party." We are very glad to find Prohibitionistsin any party, and to act with them if they will befaithful to their professions. But, throughout therecent struggle to enact and sustain Prohibition,we found this Btttte of facts steadily existing:

1. While-most Republican Prohibitionists madeProhibition paramount and Politics Becoudary, theProhibitionists in other parties generally put their

paity first and Temperance second;2. Wherever Prohibition was in question, the

Liquor interest rallied all its forces and spent largesums to defeat any restrictive law; and such forces,such disburtcments, uniformly told against the Re¬

publicans;3. The leading iVmocratic can\»ssers, such as

Horatio Seymour, John Van Buren and Auiasa J.Parker, uniformly represented Prohibition as a Re¬publican (or Whig) principle, and called upon allwho liktd to drink or sell liquor to vote the IVim*-cratic ticket ou that ground. We challenge any¬one to name an election whilo Prohibition was

urged in which ninctcc ii-twcutictht of the rum-

fellers and \otvrs under their intluoure did notvote against the Republican part). Tiny knew in-*stiuc'ivcly how to vote to further their main pur¬pose. Mr. Delavan, we tbitik, has b<vn less sa¬

gacious or less intent ou the main question.4. We were jaeitectly aware from the outset that

Pit, l.il/.t.i n could not be carried and uiniut.vnojwithout damage to that patty with which we *T0Midentified. All reforms cost something; and tiieywho urge them inui-t be piepared to pay the d.t n-

age. Thit. we were and still are willing to stand,if the Temperance men in other parlies will act uptotliir ptofeaaioDs. But we cannot help seeingthat they will uot bud do not.that both 14 IVmo-crats " ai.d " Americans " who professed an eaructfnilh in Prohibitiou have stood by and chuckhd tosee their respective parties make capital oat of theRum interest at the expense of the Republicans.This has gone on until the Prohibitory Act whichthe Ke^ubiic.ins parsed has Uvn broken down by a

combination of lVuiocratic and American judges,with the general approval of their respective par¬ties. We, therefore, seeinir no practical good tob« att.'intd by at.einpting. Lt ta I luv ofthat decis¬ion, to rtenart Prohibition. fffOpfhM Io wtit audconsiJtr. Cotitince us that Profukj im may be re-

The vote fill to IW) on Friday, by which theHowe reconsidered ita former d*v;*r»n not to admitJohn W. Whitfield to a teat aa Delegate fromKansas, may be regaided ai decisive. A reconaid-eration being^ thin carried, the direct question on

admitting Whitfield to a aeat if to be taken to-mor¬row, wben there can be little doubt that he w Ube admitted by at least the rnajority of Friday.The Members who voted to eject him hut Augu«t,but were absent on Friday, are:

Metsr*. E. Clark of Conn.. Comins of Maas., Covodeof Pa. Dunn of Ind.. aid Mace of Ind.-5 in all.Add Messrs. Childs and Dickson of tbis State,

and we have term absentees on Friday: at least fireof them so ill aa to be incapable of reaching Wash¬ington. Mr. Mace, we presume, had paired off.bis '- custom always in the afternoon ".that is, atbis dinner-time. Of the cause of absence of Mr. E.Clark we ire not informed.On the 1st day of August last, this same House

ejected Whitfie.'d. after the fülltet investigation anddebate, by a vote of One Hundred and Ten to Sim-ty-tvo. The simple and sufficient grounl of thisrejection waa the invalidity of the law appointingthe election at which Whitfield claimed to havebeen chosen. Nobody doubted that be received a

majority not only of all the votes but also of thelegal votes cast at that election: and, if the electioniNelf was a good one, he was undoubtedly the trueiJelegate. But the Investigatini; Committee sentto Kansas by the Home had reported, after thefullest tcrutiny and the examination of hundreds ofwitnesses of all parties, that tbe KansasLegislative EVctiou of March 30, 1 ¦?.">, waa

essentially fraudulent.that four times as manyinvaders from Missouri as actual residents ofthe Territory voted thereat.that a Legisla¬ture was cboten which was not the choice oftbe People of Kansas, but most repugnant to theirfeelings and antagonist to their wishes.that it rep-re.entcd tbe slaveholders of the Missouri border-not the residents of Kansas, and enacted laws ae,

eoroingly.that tbe settlers of Kama* nearly unani¬mously repudiated it* authority, refused to obey or

r» ppcct its < nactments, united in a resolve to abstainfrom voting at any election appointed by it and from

any recognition whatever of ita authority, anl to

appeal to Congress for relief from its imposture anddetpot c iiMirpation. To this end, tbey held an

election in defiance of it* authority, and, by thevotes of a large majority of the actual settlers, choseGov. Eeeder.who, on a false pretext, had b-*n re¬

moved from office because he sympathized withthem and repudiated the bogus Legislature.to betheir Delegate. , Thi* state of facts being report*!aiid clearly demonstrated to the House, It ejectedWhitfield by a vote of 110 to 92 a* aforesaid.

Whitfield returned to Kansas and waa reelectedunder the tame authority and by the same means

as before. He had more resident vote* than before,for the population had increased, Ruffim as

well as other, and a very large influx of Southronsundtr Puford, Titus and other chiefs, had mean¬

time been quartered on the Territory. But thegreat body of the «ettlers utterly refuted, as before,to vote at this election; since to vote would be torecognize the legality and authority of the bogutLegislature, and subject them beyond appeal to thetender mercies of the Border Ruffians. If they hadvoted at tbis election, held under the laws and au¬

thority of the bogus Legislature, they would havebeen overwhelmed with Border-Ruffian vote*, as

they had been on fjrmer occasions. They were

atked to play a game in which tbe cards were

stocked against them, with their rights aa freemenas the stake, and they simply and civilly dec ined,beiDg prompted and incited by the vote of theHouse aforesaid to do so. They had a right to trustthat those who voted to eject Whitfield in Augustwould not vote to admit him.the circumstinc»*beiDg in no essential changed.in December. Yetthese Members who voted to eject him in Augusthave now voted in effect to admit him:Maocli Broom. Penn. 'J. Scott Harrison, e)hio.Mler.rv M. Fuller. P. nn. "Oscar K. Moore, Ohio.t.M n Ui.kman, Pean. 'Waa, W. Valk, N. Y.tAse Packer, Pent. ' 1'hoinaa 11. Whitney. N, V..Job B. Tvson, Penn. I lohn Williams. X. V.

M>*niel Wells, Wis.. Americans. t Democrat!.

.By tbe apostasy of these eleven men.not one

of them, we gratefully observe, now or for a yearpast pretending to be a Republican.the Free-State men of Kansas are placed legally under thefeet of the Border Kuffians. Whitfield is, at leaat

temporarily, the recognized Delegate from Kansas,though two-thirds of ber actual Bettlers disownand detest him. He is put over a people whomhe no more tmly represent* than Preston S. Brookswould represent Mr. (iiddings's Dis'rie*. or AlbertBust would represent Vermont.

It is an ianVnictive circumstance that suewssors

have bee n chosen to every one of these eleven, andbut one of them (John Hickman ol'Pn.)i* reSlected,and hu through a division of his adversaries, and ou

the strength of his fidelity to Free Kansas last ses¬

sion. Had be voted then as be does now. he wouldnot be in Congress to vote another session. His re-

election is a triumph of false pretense*, and we uow

predict that he will never be chosen again.Mr. Tyson is the only one of the eleven who

lina'ly vottd for Speaker w th the Republicans,having been chosen a* an American and Whig. Hewould rather be right than not, if it did not cost

anything, nor offend anybody; but be has been

rteadily aeainst Fremont, and we believe he votedfor Buchanan. Mr. Williams represents MonroeCounty in thi* Stafe, was elected, by Know-Nothinghelp, as an An'i Nebraska IVmocrat, and is per-feetly aware that in voting to sustain Whitfield hedefies the earnest and auxious wishes of an i<n-mtnte mnjority of his constituent. At to Meisrs.>alk and Whitney.but we will -'let expressivefilenee muse their praise.*' They voted at they didin Aogioi be.-aure they then had hope* of re¬

jection; tbey vote con.rariwite now, because these

hoj es have ber n blasted, and they are left free tolollow the de.ice* and desire* of their own Pro-H ivery heart*._Upon the question of tie future supply of the

cot ten market, decidedly conflicting view* seem to

be entt rtaiued by thoie who profess to ipeak withl uthcrity on the subject. As always happens inl '.Dgland in tbe eras of short supply and high price*,attl ntien b*s been turned afresh to the idea of ren-

i!ci:p« that country !«»s dependent than it is uponthe American crop; and Lord Palmertton, in a fo¬ot nr speech at Manchester, referred to India andAfrica as pn inismg tbe wi*hed-lor relief, Oirr.Allan s of South Carolina admits, in his late m. <¦-

rage, the probability of a pofreifoi competitionfrom tbn a.l, and insitt* that nothing can enablethe I'nited Slate* to maintain their monopoly ofthe cotton market except an aSundant tupply of

"Leap labor, only to be obtained, as he thinkt, byre-lega n ng the African sate-tra^e.

Tht Titrrttai Tie BrnU tttttfedfy intlit oa

ary c< mpetito'on from any part of the world withour eotlon-growmg State* is ridiettto*, since theypossess advantages of soil, climate aad labor whichmutt alts ays give them th« read, and muit en¬

able them to drive all eonipetiU rs from the field.TV Hrrald even ma;ntains that there is a pecu¬liarity in the climate of ear cotton-fTtiwittg Stute«which especially fits them, of all cuntne*- ia theworld, and to the exclusion of all competition, to

supply tbe world with cotton. The only difficultyw bu b Tike Hrrald foresees is that pointed oat byGovernor Adams, the* deficiency of labor: aad itgoes into an elaborate calculation to show that the

present and prospective supply of slave labor is ujt

adequate to the purpose of supplying the probabledemand for cotton.

It is unquestionably one of the greatest economi¬cal objections to f'sve labor, especially when de¬

prived, ss slave labor in this country is, of theadjunct of i foreign slave-trade, that the supply ofit is so limited that sny considerable increase in thedemand for it raises the price of slaves te such a

figure as to make any large increase of productioneither impracticable or a very hazardous speculation.The slave cultivator who wishes to extend hi* cropmust put to risk not merely, like the free-labor cul¬tivator, the additional amount and value of labornecessary to make that particular crop; he isobliged to risk a great sum.if be is 10 lucky as tobe able to command it.in the purchase, out andout, at prices much more likely to fall than to rise,of the additional laborers he employs, and, havingonce got those laborers <>n his hands, he is obliged to

keep on employing them, even though the marketfor the article which he produce* should becomeoverstocked.We cannot therefore consider that the fact that

our cotton-growing States are also Slave State*,and that our American cotton it, maiuly producedby slave labor, gives us any advantage over othercompetition. In fact, it ii an obstacle in our way.and one which will be felt more and more in pro¬portion as the demand for cotton increases. Slavesnever commanded so h^h a price as they do now;

ltd, as labor is the chief item of expense in theproduction of cotton, it must cost ut more to pro-due^ cotton than ever before. Hence we must not

rashly conclude that the profits of cotton cultiva¬tion advance in proportion to the gross mm forwhich tbe aggregate crop ia sold. Nor is this in¬crease of the cost of production the sole disadvan¬tage. Every rise iu the price of cotton is attendedwith new efforts and experiments toward openingnew sources of supply. Perhaps the partial suc¬

cess which has hitherto attended these experimentshas been occasioned as much as any thing by relax¬ations of effort caused by the dropping back of

pr ccs to a low figure. A permanent rise of price,consequent not merely upon accidental short cropsor upon the consumption overtaking the produc¬tion, but upon permanent enhancement in the costof production, would, we are induced to think,brine quite a number of new competitors iuti thefield.The two advantages which, more than anything

else, have given to the I'nited States their greatpredominancy in the cotton market hare been, not

any peculiarity of climite or command of labor,but their unlimited supply of new lauds, and theaccessibility of these lands to water-carriage. Wehave (hut been able, with the same amount oflabor, to raise and get to market a larger quan¬tity of cotton: and, what is of not less importance,the cotton produced from our rirgin lauds has beenof a longer staple ami a superior quality. Hut thisadvantage <>f virgin lands we are gradually losing.The crop of the older States.or, at least, of that

part of them where cotton has bieu cultivated for

twenty years and upward.is le»s to the acre andof a quality inferior to that produced in the newer

States. These newer States are also rapidly under¬going the aame process of deterioration. Cotton cul¬tivation, as carried ou in tbe l'nite.1 S ate*, isaterri-b'e destroyer of land. Already the lands nearest to

the water courses have been sensibly deteriorated,aud hence the necessity of making the more renntelands acccr sib'e by means of railroads, the amouutof tlave labor devoted to the construction of which;s one of the causes of the present temporary hightalue of slaves. Iu this connection it is importantto recollect that the cotton-growing State« do notconsist, like those north of the «>bio, of immenseetretebe* of fertile land. The quantify tit for thecuitiration of cotton is eomparatirely limited, lie-duct the pine barrens, the swamp* and the moun¬

tains, with the quantity that must be employed for

raising food, and the cotton land* are so limitedthat, within no very distant period, our planterswill be reduced to stand on the same level withtheir foreign competitors in the cultivation of oldlands.Then sgain as to transportation. It is not in

America ouly that railrotds are built. They are in

progress also n India, aud a* the best c >tton landsare situate in the interior, they can htrdly fail toexercise a certain influence in asgaienting the cropof that country, already (takiog into account thevast domestic consumption) perhaps the greatestrotten producing country in the world.

I'pon a review of the whole case, our sltvekold-ing friends of the South ought not to allorv theirLeads to be turned by tbe present high prices ofslaves and cotton. Governor Wise's famousm heme for enriching Virginia by raiting the valueof slaves to five thousand dollar* the head is a self-contradiction, because there is no sort of productiveindustry iu which slaves could be profitably em¬

ployed at that price. Even at the present price,. very purchase of slaves becomes a very hazardousspeculation. Let the European demauf for our

breadstufls receive a decided check.and it can

l.ardly be expected to keep up at all to the presentrate.and thousands of slaves w hich the hiirh pricesof grain have retained in Virginia will l»e thrown ou

(Le Southern market, attended by a fail of a quarteror a third, if not more, in the value of workinghaxds.

The methods of Messrs. Bessemer and 1'c.hatiu*for the cheap production of sttel still continue to ex¬

cite grtat interest, and as various experiment* havebeen made for the purpose of testing their relativemerits, we can now form tome opiniou as

to their practical value. A* regards theresult of Mr. Bessemer * experiment*, the mostci*jtradictory statements bare of late Bt*sj|p!actd before tbe pubic; but as the in'.enturLas ojerated upon a large and small seile,ai.a with all appliances to boot, we may safely con¬

fer that Lie method ha* received a fair trial. Inone inatance we are to'd that an ingot of iron whichHas red hot, upou being placed under Nasmith'shammer and b*-attu, flew in all .i.n-.-t;";**:. muck t»'Le discomfiture of the owner of the works, whowas a string advocate of the Bessemer price**;w hile in another instance it appears that the re¬

Ml Mlvfictioc. I*»"»- facts we by no m*>»ci excep¬tional. We rractmotJi bear of good mH*l resulting.t one operatioo, alal* in another it ia foutvi to beof inferior quality. It would appear from tbeee op-

poaite reaulu that Mr. Beesemer cannot rearulate his

supply of oxygen *o aa to render the quality of themetal a mat'er of any certainty. Thus the metal¬

lurgist cannot know at w hat period of tbe processbe should arrest the operation so as to obtain c-n-

stunt') the same kind of metal. Should this in¬

fer* noe be correct, it must deprive the methodin a great measure of its practical value. It is

also a question whether the sulpbur and phos¬phorus, which exist in many pig irons to the ex¬

tent cf 14 per ceDt, and the removal of which is so

very essential to tbe production of good steel, are

got rid of at all. For these reasons meta lurgiatsare not so sanguine about ita superiority over all

other methods as tbey were when it was firstbrought out.As for the method of M. I'chat.us. we learn that

tbe itf el produced by it has been submitted to va¬

rious, trials in the workshop* of the Northern Rail¬road of Paris, and that the result ha* been of a *at-

iiftte'ory natuie. It appears that the steel obtainedwas superior to all cast steel used there, not even

excepting hrst-ra'e English cast ateel. A* our

rtaders may remember, the principle of Mr. I'cha-tius con.ists in fusing the granulated cast iron withit on ore reduced to powder and the peroxyde of

margane*e. When he desires to obtain a soft steela little iron i* added, but when hard steel i* re-

i|ii:n d this is not employed. The finer tha pig iron

is granulated, the softer will be the steel produced;.nd the progress of the decarbonizing action will

depend on the amount of metallic surface which is

brought into contact with the oxygen-yielding ma¬

terial with which the iron is «urrounded. Goodevidence of tbe merit of this process i* found inthe result of a series of experiment* made before

Commissioners appointed by tbe French Goveru-mei t to examme and report upon the value of themethod. The operation* performed before the Coni-m'ssion were to produce the granulation of thecast iron, and tbe conversion of the granulatedca*t iron into cast steel, and then to try several in-itiuments made from the cast steel obtained, inordtr to ascertain the pressure it would support.The grauulation wa* effected by running a cru¬

cible of melted pig iron into water, whenit was converted into «mall shot-1 ke particles:the quantity operated upon was forty pounds,and it took one hour and three-ip-iarter* tomelt. The instruments made from the cut steelwere tried and pronounced to be good, while the

experiment* instituted to ascertain its power ofleristance, and its flexion, showed that the steel

possessed great body, and that it was superior, as

respects resistance, to the best iron employed inthe workshops of the Northern Road, and could be

advantage msly compared with enst steel of thefirst quality. Tbe conclusiens arrived at by thi*Commission were that the method of I'ehatius maybe sdvantsgtoutly employed upon a lar/e scale;that it is of easy application, and cm be used with¬out any great outlay; that it doe* not demand more

fuel, or more hands, than would be required in the |conversion of steel which baa undergone the pro-eeaa of cementation into cast stee l; and also thatcast at, ol, more or lets bard, can be obtained byvarying tbe proportions of the material* first

employed; that, these material* being cheap,cast steel can be obtained by the new methodat a much lets cost than by any other.The cast stiel is also declared to b« in

every way proper to take tbe place of iron, iu manycasts whtre that metal i* at presen* employed.'1 ho mraiipulati >ns of melting and casting, are thesame as are commonly employed by cast steel nian-

manu'acturer*.Another trial of Cchatius's process has been

made in London, at tbe Albion works, in presenceof several gentlemen competent to judge upon the

subject. Mr. Charles Lenz, who operated uponthe occasion, stated that this invention wouldrender England entirely independent of Swedennr.d Ruttm for iron for steel, as East India pig iron,which was plentiful and cheap, could be converted

by it, in a few hours, into fine steel. On that occasiona weight ofM lb*, of granulated cast iron wa*

mixed with crushed ore and was allowed to melt.The content* of the crucible were then poured into

tbe iron mold, at:d opened, when an ingot of steel,weighing 85 lb*., being one pound more than theiron employed, w a* exhibited to tbe company, andpronounced to bear every external mark of beingt f tbe first quality the bar steeI produced fromtbe irgot of steel was pronounced to be excellent,and the tools made from a fellow ingot were triedand found to poetess all the qualities of fine Ec-klish cast steel. The importance of thia methodin reducing tbe price of tteel seems unquestionable.It w ill probab'y be applied to numerous purposes, inpreference to iron. Steel tyres, axles, piston rod*,and shafts, can be produced by it at a price noti xoeed ng that ab present paid for first-class iron,while a* respects strength and durability there iaM comparison between the two metal*.

Mr. Jacob Little, we believe, i* a highly respect¬able citizen; but gambling is gambling, whethercarried on in broker-' shop* in Wall street or innegio oyster cellars in Little Water *treet. Thereis a difference between betting pennies on the turn ofa card and hundreds of thousands of dollars on therise or fall of stocks; but it is a difference of repu-tabiiity rather than of principle. In one respect,the advantage is decidedly in favor of the oystercellar: the gambler there bets money that be ac¬
