I agree with the Sel! nator from South Carolina, (Mr. Butler,) that Mr. Calhoun alw.ivs pontended that Congress would have to wiihdraw its jurisdiction be1 fore the people woild be free to act for the lorination of a State Government. That was Is opinion; but he was of e opinion, not %vithsianding, that if Congr s thongit pro per to Waive irregnulities or informalities committed in such a eawe as that now under c:onsideration, (for the $enator from South' C:.rtlina and myself have had the honor of .wari, him speak freely of this very case o .CAliornia,) and the Congressional sanction should 'be finally attached to what has bee 'done, it would all be so far validated an oonfirmed as not io be questionable after v.n-ds in any earthly tribunal.

WASIssa o, Maty 28, 1830.. Th erroceedings of the Senate, yesterday :re 6finterest. 'The bill to esh blish abranei of the United States in New-York wat 4t.ken up, and Mr. Jelferso:i, Davis moved an radditional section for the establishment of twt %assay oflices in Calioi-ia. AUr. Underwooc igniiied an inten: ion to bring again to. th4 Kon-.ideration of the Senatethe proposiioi to establish a br.meh mint in California. fr Jg:dger gare notic3 ofian anendinent to striki 5out that part of the bi which proposest ,mint in NtwiYork. and .itute for it pro '.isions for a mint in C ornia. The sub jeet was passed over, in order to take up thi c:oromie bill, or rather, as Mr. Foot l md ine Union now propose to call it, in d -ferencto Mr. WebAserasviews, the ajust n.:nt bill. Mr. Websir, some time ago !tAted that the phrase, counpromise, seeme ~to imptort that something was to be compro isued. away. It seems, from a statement ii the- Union, that lie still dis-approves of th 1term, "conpromis," 'because "it seems t inport the surreader and usurpation of soni stittuional 'rights-one part giving u what the constitu:ion enjoins and the othe 1p.ay taking what the constitution forbids o .tin4llows, and both coming to terms by violi ing the constitution." Mr. Webster cor Zsiders the.bill as involving no constitu'ion ;questiun, but as arnngements of expedieneq ia the sixth of the. Camrleston resolution de .point isxtaken, and ic must be obvion n~e or v irginjia ot .J:unourv, 102, n one of the conu:ugcecis upon which the Go'. rnor wais to call toge'ther the Legislature.t ,ca:-u upon the mode and measures ofr( h r. Foote ass.erted that the resolution, rc tru "to by Mr. Mason was signifieatmtly omit Ld by' the Virginuia Leg.l.tiure, in their rei u..ins of the late sea~.ion. Mr. Ma~won ii uted, how~ever. thtat the original resolution ,.oodl unrevoked. Mr. Foote read the resc i'mions' of the late session, which refer nott to any~ measures interferiing wvith th s of'slaveholders in the district." M. Slauson satid thut it was the samne thing an .Mr. Foote contended that it was :a very dii fterentt thuig; for., Mississippi prohiibited th inu~trodu1cton of slaves from other States, an htwas not interferitng with the rights o i A:vholders. Be.ides, lie said, the dignit' f thie ingtitution was dimtinishied by identiff Lgit wiih the interests of negro traders. Mr Mrdason was opposed to the proposi ioi gio~redne~e the boundauries of Texas-by wie dreduction, as prouposed, two slavehiolding States would be lost to the South. He wva tiso opposed to the admission of California with her present bounudaries. But, in regar< ~to the territori l qutestioni he woubul ofl'r comp~romtise. ie would propose to adopt th~ ieof the Missouri compromise-3G .30 mnd carry itf through Trexas to the Pacifi ocean. Mr. Clay intquired whether the Senato was authorized to oifer this, on the part o the Sututhern Senuators. M1r. Mason said hi -spoke for himself. Mr. Clay would not, h s.;id, agree to disturb the boundaries of Cali tornia. but, if the Southern Senators wouh pgree to vo;e for it, he woul agree to tak< Itheilinue of 36 30, through Texas, to the casteri limit of California. Some conversation took place on thi point and it seemed that neither of the high ca:endingo par_____ ethat ald be assured that the whoh ~bodly o . hern Senators would consent t< udpt the line of thi. 7 hirty 'across th< eotnent, ifronm the Sai' the P ili, and wiuthout requfiig any.~ -lation '611av6. hegato long' bifer'e lie wvonld himself refuse uls as.sent to it. But,...looking aiound, lhe u.sked who was for it--are you! or you !. and lhe mect only with niegative nods'fromt ~Southiern nmmbers. --Mr. Clay has always stated, as tin objection to the adoption of a line, that, while it res tricted slavery north of line, it did tnot secure it routh of the line, and that, therefore, it was better for the South to try the question of the Lax loci, or the vigor of the Constitution-if there was any thing in the latter whtichtenr ried slavery with it imo the new territories. A five column article in the Reymblic, of yesterday, is devoted to a vindieation of' the President's plani, and, to strictures on Mr. Clav's course. Thte a'benee of hairnmony andl conidettce between the~ Executive and Legis lative branchues is attributed to Mr. Cl's' 1mbitionm. The breach is now made between Mr. Clay and the admnisttratiotn. Tur.

Senator ELmoRE died at Washington on the 27th ult., from an attack of Neuralgia. Mr. ELMORE, has: long held conspicuous place in our. State, having from time to time filled the highest trussta in the gift of the peophdand the Legislaturc. His. urbanity and talent endeared him to the people, and ever gave him a large share of the public confidence. Receetly transferred to the Unitedl States Senate, where a broader field was open'd for the exercise of his political abilities, it must be a source of regret to all, that he has been pre mdurely eut down, before he had an opportunity ofdliying in his new station, those-abilities tiat would haveadded much to his reputation, an-dobtlss, great good to the country.
