SENATE.
Th" bill to make donations of pub-!
lit* land': loactual settlers was taken
up, a id Mr. Walker spoke at length
in ?ts support.
Tac bill was postponed till to-nior-'
row.
The California bill was taken up
on its third reading.
Air. Jefferson Davis, who had taken
the floor yesterday, addressed
the Senate at considerable length.?
He stated his objections to tl e bill on
several grounds.
\V hv. he askfd. wrp Nnrfhnrn
men urging the admission of Cali- j
fornia? Jl was not to promote their
manufactures, for Oalfornia would ;
he free trade. It was not to preserve j
political power, because the North
had a majo.iitv already. The only
purpose was, therefore, to commit
an aggression upon the South. If
thsrewas now dangler to the Lnion,,
it was because the North had acted
unjustly to the Souih; and this was
the healing measure that was pro-'
loosed, The remonstrances of the'
South were met with indifference 01 |
contempt.
This was a constitutional I nion?;
1 il l 1- 1
ana muse who nuenipieo 10 over-!
throw tlie Constitution, were the i
real disnnionists. We stand on the i
verge of an act that will form an era 1
in our history. At a moment of tin-!
paralleled excitement, we are about
io do an act that will overthrow the
balance of power. The consequences
could be foreseen.
For his own part, he felt obliged
to resist the measure as one pregnant
willi consequences fatal to the Union,
lie was instructed by the Legislature
of his State to oppose this bill,
and he considered it as tantamount
to the Wilniot Proviso, and in a form
objectionable. He gave his solemn j
warning againt the consummation of I
his act. lie had used no menace, |
?ut he warned the majority not to ,
ook to the South as a field where j
victories were to be without cost

States were not subjects of the ao |
tion of the government. This gov- j
ernment could not, if it tried, subdue
one State, but they would have the
whole fourteen against them, before j
long.
Mr. Houston vindicated his vote
in support of the bill.
Mr. Barnwell replied to some portion
of Mr. Houston's remarks, and
vindicated the Nashville Convention.

Mr. Butler, from a portion of the
minority, asked leave to ofler a pro-1:
test to morrow, to be entered on the 1
journals.
Mr. Douglas moved to take up the
bill 1o establish the territory of New
M exico. It was read a second time i
and postponed till to-morrow.
Same remarks were made by Mr.
Eoote, Mr. Foote, Mr. Butler, and
others, on the order of proceeding
Mr. Foote said the Bill could be

Mr. Butler said he had intended to

hill was reported to the Senate, and
ordered to be engrossed for a third
reading. '
CALIFORNIA. I
The amendment offered to the bill
by Mr. Turney, on Saturday, was ,
pending before tho Senate :
Mr. &oule spoke briefly in support
of the amendment?of the necessity
of a provision in the Constitution of
California securing to the United
States entire control over the public i
domain with'to her limits?^-the di s're
of the South to limit the southern
boundary of California by the line
of 30.
A pass at-anns here took place between
Messrs. Footo and Soule, a

The vote was (hen taken upon the
amendment, which was rejected?
yea; '20, nays 30.
Mr. Berrien spoke at length, assigning
his reason at length for oppcs'ng
the hill. lie declared that
California herself were not at the
present time anxious for admission ;
that the people were fully satisfied
that a State Government was best
for them; and that a different Constitution
would be adopted in another
(Convention.
i\ I r. i ass replied to some portions
of his remarks.
Mr. Foote I lien moved to lay t lie
bill on the table, saying that he had
been instructed by the legislature to
oppose, by every possible means, the
admission of California; lost, yeas 19,

Objected to by several.
Mr. J Iarris asked a suspension of
the rules to enable him to introduce
it.
The Chair stated that there was a
proposition to suspend the rules pending,
therefore his motion was not
in order.
Mr. Potter, by unanimous consent
reported a bill to establish certain
mail routes in the United States,
which was read and ordered to be
printed and referred to the Committee
of the W hole.
Mr. Meade, of Virginia, asked the
unanimous consent of the House to
introduce a resolution expressive of
the sense of the House that the President
of the United States should
any action which is calculated to result
in a collision between the Texans
and the United States troops;
and that he should await such legislation
as Congress may adopt in reference
to the territorial claim of the
State of Texas.
Mr. C niter and others objected
to the introduction of the resolution.
Mr. Meade gave notice that he
would, when in order, move a suspension
of the rules to enable him to
introduce the resolution.
The House adopted a resolution
to close the debate on Friday next,
ai 12 o'clock in Committee of the
Whole on the Civil and Diplomatic
Appropriation Bill.
On motion of Mr. Ashman, the
House resolved itself into Committee
of the Whole, (Mr. Burt in the
Chair,) and resumed the consideration
of the civil and diplomatic appropriation
bill.
Mr. Cary who was entitled to the
floor, addressed the House upon the
subject of the Tariff of 1810; eontending
that the iron interest of the
country had been broken down by
it. He presented many statistics, to
show that that interest in Pennsylvania
is in a most languishing condition.
He denounced the conduct of
Mr. Buchanan, and the Democratic
party generally, in regard to the
tariff; arguing that their free trade

With ii view of accommodating our Su

TEXAS.
Governor Bell, backed by the liar
dy yeoman ryof his State, is resolved
to stand or fall in defence ofthe rights
of the State. The most reliable
sources give us information that he
has issued orders to nearly every
county in Texas to raise troops, and
j we may well judge ofthe promptness
with which these orders are obeyed,
j when we are told, there arc now under
arms and ready for service, over
j S.000 brave soldiers, who knowing
I the rights of the 'Lone Star,1 dare
I maintain them. And it is stated that
| great unanimity of sentiment prevails
| among the people, as to the bounda;
ry of their State. This is as it should
be, and we congratulate the South
I on her unity of feelings as to the
rights of Texas, and tlie usurpation
of authority on the Dart of the Ac!
I ministration. Hotli AVhigs and Dem
ocrats entertain but one opinion on
; tiiis subject?all huzza for Texas and
denounce the tyranny o{ the Administration.
Those who opposed the
annexation of Texas, are among her
strongest friends, and assert her right
to all the territory east of the Rio
Grande. Indeed, it does seem as if
the President in his message has be;
trayed a sort offancy or mania to
. have things done up after his own
manner of thinking, regardless of the
! opinions of others, the acts of Congress,
or of former Administrations.
TllUS. wllPlI Tcvfls \\'?c nrttniHorl in.
to the Union, it was on the avowed
understanding that she was received
with all her lights and claims, she
I then claiming all territory east of the
Rio Grande1 and soon afterwards the
Governmcrnment of Mexico was
about to lake forcible possession of
that territory, Gen. Taylor was or1
dered to defend it, which he did, and
by act of Congress a state of war was
declared to exist between the United
States and Mexico, and a bloody con
ilict followed. Now it is very evident
that the United Steles made no
other claim to that territory except
that derived from Texas, and upon
that title it was bravely defended.?
The laws and enactments oftheTex|
an Republic, the correspondence of
j Cobinet officers, speeches of memi
1 ' M * 1
urrs in congress, ana even acknowledgements
by Mexico herself, may
1 lie adduced to show that Texas
| claimed from the month of the Rio
I Grande to its source. Hut all at
once new lights are revealed to Mr.
Fillmore, acts and precedents long
since ratified by Congress, by the
people of Texas and of the United
States, are not [in accordance with
his faith, and he assumes the duly of
declaring all those solemn enactI
ments void, and of rectifying the error
of the General Government on
; tl is point. But the existence of New
j Mexico is of such recent date, that
| only a lew persons know what portion
of country the name designates,
and at the time above alluded to, it
was absolutely unknown to the political
world. But because, within a
I few months past, a handful of exiled
foreigners and vagabond Yankees
have squatted there?agreed to form
a Government?and presented a constitution
to Congress, to be admitted
into the Union; that constitution
being agreeable to the politico-moral
creed of the President, he concents
to give them a portion of the territory
of Texas, and then asserts that
] he has the power and means to use
it. Does this savor of Republicanism?
May not the Administration as consistently
declare that our .Republican
Government is a failure, and proclaim
himself solo monarch? The course
of the administration is bordering very
close upon monarchy. But upon
this subject he tnuy rest assured? that
the first gun fired by the Federal
Government against Texas will be
the signal of alarm to all the South*
and hundreds of brave soldiers will
, press to her rc?cue.
GEN. H. S. FOOTE.
When (Jen. Foote saw "the hand
writing en the wal!" that the South
could not be gulled into the support
of the Clay 'omnibus' bill, and that
with its defeat his glr ry would be eclipsed,
he most ungenerously undertook
to prop his falling reputation by
traducing the character of better
men. Very unfortiuiat^BL for the
General his artillery was directed
against gentlemen who, although, as
he says "to him unknown," are too
well known and appreciated in South
Carolina to be easily affected by any
discharge from his battery. The
gentlemen whom he has had the audacity
to misrepresent, misquote and
ridicule in the Senate Chamber, art!
our worthy citizens ColY. Gregg and
Oliesnut; who, however, have air ady
administered a deservedly severe castigation
to the Hon. Senator, of which
if all shame is not lost, he must keenly
feel the smart, and we sincerely
hope it may operate a wholesome in- '
lluence upon his political morals.
We regret that the crowd of other
matter upon our columns will pic- j |
vent the publication of ihese responses i :
of Col. Gregg and Chesnut. Indeed j !
we can conceive of no obligation j !
moral or political requiring any gen- j
(Ionian to nolir'.o tliPi wnnlnn i
of such a personage as Gen. F., but 1
since the reply is already made, we (
are glad "'twere well done."
A large number of Senator Footc's (
constituents have sent an able docu- <
mcnt to be read in the U. S. Senate, <
protesting most strenuosly against
their Senators course.
CONGRESS- J
By reference to our columns it will j
be seen that a bill for the admission t
of California as a State has passed i
the Senate by a large majority.
The New Mexican territorial bill J
has also passed, to go into effect upon ,
the settlement of the Texas boundary :
question. An attempt was made to 1
engraft the Wilmot Proviso on it, but 1
was rejected by a vote of ayes 20,
nays 25. ,
A formal protest against {
the passage of the California Bill, '
has been drawn up by Mr- Butler of "
South Carolina, or Mr. Hunter of Va. j
signed by ten Senators and read in ,
the Senate, upon which an exciting |
debate followed. 1
We have on our files the protest 1
itself,together with remarks made on j
the occasion, but not having room '
for them this week, wo shall sjwn .
comment and publish next week the 1
proceedings entire. The protest was 1
presented by Mr Hunter, but not ner
mitted to be entered on the journa (
of the Senate, by a vote of 22 to 19, j
Mr. Foote voted with his northern t
friends against the protest. <
Godey's Lady's Book?The Sep- J
tepiber No. of this highly interesting j
periodical has been received, and i
from a glance at its contents, we arc f
assured that Mr Godey's many readers
will be pleased with the present j
number.

CALIFORNIA AND SLAVKKY. 1
We glean from various sources 1
that the California peopl; arc hcconi- ?
ing convinued that there was too
much haste for their own good in the
adoption of a Slate form of govern- ''
mcnt. It is asserted that they now j
believe a territorial government will
better suit their condition, as they *
cannot carry on a State government '
commensurate with California prices.
Mr. Berrien read a letter in the *
Senate, on Monday, from a distinguished
source in California, avowing
the opinion that the slavery question 1
is not yet settled in California; that ^
their constitution will be altered in '

indicate it; and the writer asserts s
that the people do not wish the hill
for the admission of the State to be
passed. <]
The Washington correspondents l!
of the Baltimore Sun and New York Jj
Herald all seem to agree that there is j
some authentic information upon
which the Southern members are 11
basing their efforts to defer action on h
the hill to admit California. It is un
derstood that since the adjournment
of the California Legislature, the j
members from the southern counties ! j(
have gone home with th' intention of j j(
getting up a convention for the clivis !
ion of the State, and the establish-! (]
irient in the southern part of said !
State of a sonarate territorv and ;v
, | ^ o
separate terntorJiil > ovemment.? j.
News is expected by the steamer u
low about due of some proceedings t|
n California looking to the division {|
if the State. j,
In view of all this, we cannot un- rj
lerstand why Southern Senators (j
any of them) could vote for rushing ,,,
California through in such hot-haste
>n Monday and Tuesday. 1 (j
That slavery will eventually be |,
established in California, there is : ^
svery reason to b ilieve. Additional (l
evidence of the value of tint species v
jf labor is found in the following ex- ^
rapt of a letter from Washington in n
lie New York Herald. The writer
mys: . . d
"1 am informed by a distinguished 7
nember of the State Senate of Callornia,
that there are several thousand | e
slaves in that country, chiefly below t|
S6 30; that one person estimates the 11|
lumber of slaves in the country al- ' n
eiidv at froi>i fivr> UiMiicnnrl. !
Our gentleman, from Ark ansa, has
eighty staves engaged in the southern y
nines, oil ers have been named lo us ?
is having Iheir slaves in the diggings 0
taken out by Ihe Gila route from Tex- j?
!\s, Arkansas, and Louisiana, and
:>thcr Southern Stales. The aboli[ion
of the system of peonage has j,
ihrown out of the possession of many j,
large landholders1 and cattle raisers 1 (f(
Inindreds of peons. Under this state 1 (j
af things, some of these stock raisers 1 (t(
ire already providing to supply the ' j|
ors of their peons with negro slaves. ,.j
i'he abolition of peonage will also ac- ^
**oulit for the meetings which have | y
jeen Ircld in southern California, for tt
i separate territorial government." j .)(
All this seems to indicate that, [j
vhatever the action of Congress n,
nay be, slavery will find its way at C(
east to the southern portion ot the 1 ?
erritory. But what a striking evi- jj.
lence is it of the gross wrong inflic- j n
e<l upon the countrv. ns \vf>ll ns nn !
lie inhabitants of California, by the 1 (>1
lofarious plotting of the last adrftinstration,
in forcing a State govern- (j(
