Mr. Calhourijet remains in a precarious condition.
His further continuance in active public
life may he considered as very doubtful, if
not wholly out of the question. Last week,
however, he sent word to his friends that he
hoped to be so far restored to health as to he
able to kddressthe Senate on Tuesday next ensuing.
He now says he must make one more
effort, though Such efTort should he at the cost
of his life. Ml5, Calhoun is determined to die
when he must, with "harness on." He is 'game'
iu justice and right to the last.
The Senate has been wasting time and energies
in a fruitless discussion of the petition from
"Friends" in Pennsylvania, praying Congress
to adopt measures for a peaceable (!) dissolution
of tlie Union, as though such peaceable dissolution
can ever happen.
If Mr. Clay, iu his celebrated speech last
week, had not taken ground against the line of
30 deg. 30 min., the exciting, absorbing, and
i -i- A 5?Li 1 -I . 1*
jUl-imponani question migiu nave oeeu in a inir
train of settlement The South would be satisfied
with an arrangement which would extend
said line to the coast of the Pacific. We yesterday
were told by one of tire warmest advocates
for the rights, interests, and honor of the
South, a distinguished Senator, that but for Mr.
Clay's proposition and 3peech, the vexed
question might have been settled satisfactory to
all parties. But now, Mr. Underwood voting
with Mr. Clay, aird Gen. Houston with Mr.
Benton, all in opposition to the Missouri compromise
line, the question is unfortunately left
open for further and possibly more disastrous
agitation and discussion. Heaven forefend such
a result!
The Senator and Representatives from California
are on the floor of the House, and are cordially
greeted by members of all parties. If the
question of admission rested solely with the
House, California might be a member of the
Union without the delay which is now anticipa
The President's message upon California affairs,
together with n voluminous mass of public
documents relating thereto, has just been laid
before the Senate and the House of Representatives.
It amounts substantially to this. " I
have the honor to submit herewith the Constitution
of California, &c., and am very respectfully,
Ate. Z. Taylor." No recommendation pro
or con, in relation to California, forms part of
the message. In reference to Nicaragua, Mosquito,
Ate., the President assures Congress, all
the information asked for and in the power of
the Executive to give, will be communicated
cheerfully so soon ns the public interests will
make it expedient and proj>er.
Mr. Stanton, of Tenn., is occupying the attention
of the House in a defence of the last administration,
and especially of Mr. Buchanan.
Col. Davis, of Mississippi, is replying to Mr. Clay
in the Senate. Having succeeded in getting
smuggled into a very fair position among the la
dies, wno crowqeq tne loonies tnrougn tne gallant
motion of Gen. Foote, we had an excellent
opportunity to see and hear Col. Davis. His
remarks were principally in reply to and comments
upon the speech of Mr. ("lay, and he succeeded
in controverting very successfully the
positions assumed by Mr. Clay, in all the resolutions
up to that relating to the boundaries ol
Texas.
At this point, Col. Davis, somewhat reluctantly
gave way to Mr. Mangum's motion to postpone
the consideration of the resolutions until
to-morrow. We cannot, at this moment, make
a just or proper comment u|?on the very able
and eloquent remarks of Col. Davis, to which
we have been listening with all attention,
