NO. 180.
JUNE 9.
Mr Phelps of Missouri advocated the admission
of California, whether in a separate or conjoin'
measure
Mr McMullen of Virginia charged Mr. Phelps
with favoring the President's plan.
Mr. Phelps said he did not?nor could be say
whether he would favor the Smote plan, till he
lucw what it was. But, he would vote for the
admission of California.
Mr. MoMullen said, disguise it as you may.
the people will take this view of the question:
those who vote for California, in advance of n
settlement ot the other questions, might as well
fsce the mueic and gallop to the tune of the Wilmot
Proviso at once ; for the result will be. New
Mexico and Utah will follow the example of California,
anil ootne in with a slavery prohibition.
Wherever the American flag goes, a man baa a
right to transfer his properly. Do the North act
like honest men in endeavoring to appropriate all
to themselves ? No; but like thieves.
Mr. Allen of Massachusetts said that the dehates
woald he the means of doing good to the
country at large. It had been shown in the discussions
that, so far froui securing '-the Meanings
of liberty," one of the purposes for which the
I'onstitution of the United States was framed,
something far different in sought. It had be?n
shown that liberty, bo far from being supreme in
the Government, holds a subordinate rank. He
then entered upon history, to demonstrate that
not only in the acquisition of territory has a
change come over the Constitution of the country,
but a great idea enforced of establishing slavery
as the paramount duty of this Government,
and to extend Hnd perpetuate it forever. In the
>. course of his remarks, he spoke of the straightforwardness
of the Free-Soilers. They had no
J disposition to dodge the Wilmot Proviso; they
act out their purposes here and elsewhere, and
openly and fearlessly tell what they will do.
u We will,'' he said, ' surely put a stop to the encroachments
of the slave power, break the bands
of oppression, und let the oppressed go free, aud
secure freedom, not in name, but in fact; not to
the high, but to the low."
Mr. Thurman of New York was not a sickly
sentimentalist?he did not believe slavery a sin?
but it was u political evil, and he would keep it i
out of the Territories. He was in favor of the j
admission of California as a separate measure.
In the evening, Mr. Hamilton of Maryland,
Mr Butler of Pennsylvania, nnd Mr McQueen
of South Carolimt, each occupied uu hour on the
same subject,
And the House then adjourned till Monday
morning at 10 o'clock.
JUNE 10.
Mr. IJowdou of Alabama spoke against the
compromise of the Senate, against the President's
plan, and went for a partition of territory between
North and South.
Mr. Gentry of Tennessee attributed all our
difficulties to the annexation of Texas and the
war with Mexico. He was uncommitted as to
any particular measure. The Senate's compromise
he did imA apptove of, but he the
President's plan. It was not in the power of the
House, even if sustained by the President and
his Cabinet, to destroy the Union, which was safe
iu the hands of the People.
Mr McClernand of Illinois spoke of Mr. Wilmot
as the source of the present discord. He advocated
the admission of California, and the establishment
of the Governments of Utah and New
Mexico, as measures to be incorporated in one
bill. He was for peace.
Mr. Woodward of South Carolina protested
against the admission of California as a State.
Mr Stanton of Tennessee said California had
no right to claim admission as a State; and as to
Texas, he would sooner pay her for keeping her
territory, than parting with any portion of it.
Mr. Kaufman said Texas would never give up
one inch of her territory below 34 degrees?that
lor what she surrendered she would never take
less than twelve millions of dollars ? that she
would then demand the organization of four
States in her territory below 34 degrees, and that
Government for New Mexico above that line be
organized without the Proviso.
Speeches were subsequently delivered by Mr.
Stevens of Pennsylvania, Mr. Wellborn of Georgia
Mr. Harris of Alabama, and Mr. Thompson
of Pennsylvania; after which, the House adjourned.

The author has happily brought out the finest
points in the character of the heroine. Her patriotism

fastidious can scarcely cavil at the unfeminine
character she is sometimes obliged to assume in
the prosecution of the high objects to which she
consecrated her li'e, and for which she died a
martyr's death. The unworthy arts by which
the author supposes she was deluded into the belief
of the divine authority of her mission, are
fully eiposed, and the heart burns with indignation
at the baseness which could thus deceive a
trusting woman. The helpless despair of the poor
victim, when she begins to suspect the truth of
the mysterious revelations, is pitiable.
FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE.
Paris. May ii3, 1850.
To the Editor of the Nutiotwl Era:
The genera) debate on the bill against universtl
suffrage closed last night, after an animated
discussion of two days. M. Victor Ilugo on the
first day, and M. Canet on the second, bore off
the honors of the struggle. The heart of Hugm
the great poet, beats always on the right side'
His speeches on tho expedition to ftome, the
transportation of political convicts, the bill of
public instruction, and the bill against suffrage,
place him among the first orators. Parts of his
speech on Tuesday compare advantageously with
those of Cicero; and the Roman orator never
pronounced a nobler one than that in which
Hugo appealed for mercy in lwhalf of condemned
patriots. These orations are gems in French
liUMr?i?r?, tuJ are destined to find admirers as
long as there are Frenchmen whose hearts throb
with sympathy for the unfortunate. A medal
has been struck in their honor, and such was the
rage to have the last, that an edition of one hundred
thousand was exhausted in less than a week.
M. Canet is an advocate of some celebrity He
was for seven years Procureur General under
Louis Philippe, but was always noted for his
liberal opinion* nnd manly sentiments In common
with his countrymen, he hailed with joy the
arrival of the February revolution. Unlike
many of them, his republican faith has been
strengthened by time. Opposed alike to the
violence of the Mountain and of the Reaction, he
has kept himself on the Left of the Centre. I ]jg
speech of yesterday wis the outspeaking of an
honest man and an able orator. Never before
was the President flagellated so unmercifullyand
yet in parliamentary rules. The bill was
criticised in the most masterly manner, and
sharp satire and overwhelming invective forced
the majority to produce their best orator to
answer. M. Moutulembert undertook this task,
but did not succeed in anything but a few coarse
personal attacks, which appeared to please his
party. M Canet has revealed political talents of
a very high order, and marked his place as a
future minister. The effect produced by his
speech was so great, that half the Assembly left
their seats on the close of it to congratulate him,
and the sitting was suspended for half an hour.
M. Leon Faucher reported the bill last Saturday,
and the Assembly adjourned until Tuesday,
partly to prepare, for the discussion, and partly to
observe the feast of Pentecost. The report is as
jcsuitical as expected, which is all that oan be
said of it. It takes the ground that the hill is
quite constitutional.
M. Laroartine has gained no oratorical honors
or any others this time. How oould he, after
attacking universal suffrage in his CouhkIIot of
Ihr People, be eloquent in its defence ? M Lamoricicre
has not spoken, and it is said he will uot,
as he expects shortly the staff of a Marshal of
France. This is a little scandal which you roust
not attach importance to, unless it shot/Id turn
out to be true M. Theirs, true to bis character
of mover of cat's paws, has not spoken at all. M. 1
Berrjer and M. Moll have followed the same
prudent example. Few of the majority dare to
apeak, because they know that the fate of the
man who advocates this law is sealed. The act
will kill him politically, if the Republic survive.
Bat the majority will paas the bill. They are
determined to wreak on universal suffrage the
lesson given them by the people of Paris, just as
they destroyed the clnbe which exposed their
conduct, and passed laws to cripple the press
which dared to censnre them. Like snarling
dogs, they bite the stick which strikes them. Or
they may be compared to the barbarians brought
to fight in the gladiatorial shows of Rome when
their enemy struck them on the arm, they put
their hand on the spot; when he struck them on
the head, they earried their hand to the head
but never thought of attacking the enemy himself.
The difficulty with England has lost all importance.
After a delay of six days, the diplomatic
correspondence has been laid on the desks
of members. It is a folio of 240 pages, fall of dry
letters from Athene London, end Paris. When
I say it has lost all importance, I mean that no

toward the RomIm alliance. Thia view ia taken
by 7vr Hrm,. d*i Dtmi MtnAn, a fart friend of the
Government. Speaking of thia aobject, and the

_ L
THE NATIONAL Eli
M. de 1'Hoys were recalled; and the President
was obliged to submit, it being impossible to
change the Cabinet just now. It was the President
who prevented the report of M. Lifittc's
speech, and suppressed the documents for several
days.
The polios continues its persecutions of the
press. 1m I'oix du Pmplt has ceased to appear.
The condemnations of M Langraud, its conductor,
amount to some ten thousand francs fine, aud
three years and a half imprisonment. The people
are calm, and there is leas prospect than ever of
an attempt at resiatance. They will wait a little
longer Some of the Paris journals quote with
| expressions of horror the advertisement in the
i New Orleans papers of one W. B. itourk,of Louisiana.
It is an advertisement, in regular form, of
blood-hounds trained to catch negroes, so long as
the trail is fresh. Charge, ten dollars for each
capture.
The news has reached here of the death of
Tao-Kwan, Emperor of China. I lis oldest surviving
son, Se-hin, has succeeded him on the throneThis
gentleman Is hut nineteen years of age, and
in excellent health, so that he has the prospect of
a long reign before him. His father seems to be
deeply regretted by all the journals of Paris,
which devoted a good deal of space to the defunct
on Tuesday morning The fact that there was no
session of the Assembly on Monday, aud the ab
sence of all other news, miy ace mut for lliia excessive
grief.
A letter from Vienna represent* (kc people as
very backward to vote for the members of the
municipal council. Not more than one-tenth of
the voters had been inscribed. This astouiskes
and displesMs the Government papers, which rate
the people soundly for not using the right of suffrage.
They forget to mention that the council
has no importance whatever, the city boing still
in a state of siege.
The first vote in the Commons on the bill for
the abolition of the vice-royalty in Ireland showed
a largo majority in its favor. The vote stood?
170 to 17.
A law for the regulation of the system of public
instruction has been pussed in the Lower House
of Belgium, with such conditions as to excite, to a
high degree, the wrath of the Catholic clergyThe
bishops and archbishops have laid before the
Senate a petition?or, to give it its proper name,
a protest?against the enactment of the law. But
it is not probable th it the protest will produce
any effect. Belgium presents a state of things
worthy ofatudy. Though there are only a few
thousand Protestants in the whole kingdom, the
.Catholic clergy bavf been successively driven
from the Cabinet, cha-A from public employments,
and deprived of the direction of education, which
had been in their hands time out of mind. The
secret of this is, that the absolutist tendencies of
the Catholic clergy nre too great to be tolerated
even in Catholic Belgium
GERMANY.
The Congress called by Austria at Frankfort
has done nothing. The situation was a very awkward
one for the Austrian Envoy, who found
himself surrounded, on the first day, by his old
allies, Bavaria, Wurtemberg, and Saxony, but not
one of the powers of the Prussian Union was there.
In despair, he adjourned the Congress until something
should be heard front Prussia. No meeting
has been held since.
The Congress at Berlin has accomplished more
than this, but has not established anything firmly.
The two Messes, Dessau, and the Mecklenhurgs,
will most certainly retire. This result is at tempted
to be disguised by the Prussian Court, which gives
out that these powers have not finally decided,
aud that their places in the College of Princes will
be kept open for them. The other parties to the
treaty of May 26th agreed to two measures which
I note as the only ones of any importance: 1 The
formation of a Provisory Government of the Union.
This is limited to a duration of Bix weeks, when
the parties will deoide whether it shall be continued.
For this short time, M. MunteufTel, of Prussia,
is to aot as Minister of the Interior, and M.
Schleinitz as Minister of Foreign Affairs. They
hold the same offioes in Prussia. 2. The substitution
of the College of Princes to the Council of
Administration for the Government of the Union
of North German States. The advantage in this
is, that the votes of the College will be decided by
the mnjority of voices, while in the Counoil, unanimity
was necessary.
The diflvreut parties to the Union are free to ao
* ?l>t OuugTM* ni BP to MBit Tkeg
will all either go or send. Negotiations may
therefore be expected to commence in a day or
two at Frankfort, where something new may be
patched up, or a return made to the treaty of 18 If).
This last is most probable.
Nothing effectual will he done for the establishment
of Germany on a solid basis, until the people
clear away ull this rubbish of princes and kings.
PIEDMONT.
The conduct of Archbishop Franzoni, of
Turin, is tbe prominent topic, at present. in Piedmont.
Thin ecclesiastic wan no outraged al the
abolition, by Sictrdi a law, of the ecclesiastical
courts and the right of convents and churches to
shelter criminals from the pursuit of .justice, that
he issued a circular to the priests, requiring them
to refuse to appear or testify in any civil court
without the permission of the bishop of the diocese.
This was organising a revolt aguinst tbe law of i
the land. The Government attorney cited the
archbishop to appear and answer to a charge made
against him; the citation was neglected. The
judge of the court then offered the archbishop to
visit him nt his palaoe, and examine him there, <
but the archbishop refused to open his doors. No i
other course was left open to the Government
than an arrest in dne form, which was accordingly
made. This energy of the Government has filled '
the people of Piedmont with joy, but the priest- i
hood consider the archbishop a martyr, and have (
commenced, after their fashion, a war on the (
Government. Their way of carrying on the campaign
in this : the churches are hung in mourning,
and relays of priests keep up, from morning till
night, the doleful chant of tnnnmlis (in chains.)
This weeping of the whole fraternity may have
tbe name effect on King Kmmanuel, as (he never- f
ceasing tears of David Copperfield's acquaintance, )
Mrs. Gummidge, had on the good-hearted Peg- t
gotrv. "She's always a crying for the old un,"
would he say before giving up.
Second only in importance to this conflict be- (
tween the spiritual and temporal, is the bill pro- y
posed, on the Kith, by the Piedmontesc ministry, J
for the suppression of all existing estates in tail J
and majorats, a species of trust estate in tail for ^
the oldest son. 'I'his will pass the two Flouses <
It is a fatal blow at the nobility, which cannot long *
subsist under a system of equal division of property
among all the children, or even of free
alienation.
Theme two attacks, one on the priesthood and the *
other on the nobility, ehow that the march of
Piedmont is slowly in advance. A little more
speed would be advisable.
THE COURT AT PARIS.
When the people of Paris burnt the throne of
Louis Philippe on the place Rastill>, they did so r
to symbolize what seemed to them true, that the (j
luiuriousneM. nepotism, corruption, and spirit of tj
self-aggrandisement, inseparable from a throne,
had periahed before the anger of an outraged na- (|
tion. They did not intend t<s wreak a petty spite
against half a dozeu gilded sticks, and four yards u
of red eel ret. This bonfire was well enough It
should have been, however, s pledge of the revolutionitera
to destroy the pedestal of the throne slso,
to sweep away that vast system of corruption ,
devised by the monarchy for its support, and re- h
'Iuiring a monarchy for ita own permanence ^
Why drive off Louis Philippe, and leave untouched
his hosts of interested partisans, the swarms
of corrupt judges, notaries, aqriii, courti*ri of
oommeroe, prefects, ivour/, diplomatists, civil and
military functionaries, priests salaried by the ft
State, hospital directors, prison directors, civil
engineers, chiefs of bureaux, commanders of
gendarmerie Ate., ike, numbering at least five hun- j.
dred thousand, mi l nil reeling their rat otlices ,
menaced continually by the Republic They
nee<l a court and a King to protect them in prir- J
ilegee opposed to the popular interests, and would
just as soon accept Louis Napoleon, as any of the t
Bourbon*. These are the men who ars now the
nfost persevering and dangerous enemies of the t
Republic, which left them in full pttMAssion of all 0
their power for evil. The great error of the ?
Prorieory Government was its feebleness; it ^
listened too much to Lamartine, and too little to t
Lcdru Rollin. Instead of disarming its deadly e
enemies, it threw aside Its own weapons, and hased
its breast in a generous appeal to thegratitnde
and sentiment of honor of the vanquished. Feebleness
and folly! there was no sentiment of
honor to appeal to. f
The same error killed the resolution in Germany.
Kings and Princes were left on their ?
thrones after basing humiliated '
The same error caused the failure of the insurrection
in Lombard/and Piedmont Italian patriots "
imagined ths folly of that using a Kiog and n nobility
as ths instruments of s national resistance to
an emperor and nobility They hare suffered A
biterly for their fault. C
Tbe same error contributed greatly to ths Is!! n
of Huagtry. Had Kossuth swept out of power tl
eery man oonneoted with the aristocratic party, p
he would out have had to utter tbe cures of his 9
in all to on* hundred and eighty-three persons, '
who belong Btrictly to the President's family j
This does not include his visiters, nor his three j
prettly little daughters, nor their mother, nor yet
the police agents of the F.lyi>?, who would in- j
crease the number to al>out six hundred
To make head against the expenses of this establishment,
the President hss an annual income
of 1,20(1.000 franca?or a daily one of about
Louis Philippe's iucome was larger, and he is
reputed to have been a strict eoonomist; but he
left some twenty-five millions of fnncs in debt.
Louia Philippe had but one table, to which he
and all his family AU Vrf, ?, r-?i>*vn? is
rather more stylish, for he has three?one for himself
and friends, one for the higher officers about
his Court, and a third for those of lower grade,
besides those for the domestics. He will so ircely
go out of office rich, althongh he may be a better
economist than Louis Philippe. No other man
than the President could sustain such an estuhlishment
for less than twice the amount of his
salary ; but everything appears to be going on
swimmingly. lie has even purchased one or two
country estates with his economies, paid fifty
thousand francs towards a cite ouvrnre, which has
since been sold at auction, and given to charitable
purposes a good deal of money. The exact sum
may be learnt from the announcements in the
different Government journals.
There is no doubt, then, that we have a true
prince at the head of affairs, and all the externals
of the royalty. When the Prince President goes
out to ride, he is nearly always followed by a
troop of lanoers or dragoons, and eaoorted by a
brilliant staff. All that is between France and
a monarchy like that of Louis Philippe is universal
suffrage and that uncomfortable obligation to
change the President in 1852. Cannot thoae obstacles
be thrust aside? This is now the object
of the reaction. Some want to repeal the act
banishing the Bourbons, and run one of them for
President at the next election. Yours. &c.

The Republicans of Venieeand of Rome sustained

The Provisory Government, under Lnntartine, !
noted more feebly than the American Abolitionists
would do, if, after getting the majority in the

they should go about filling all the places in the j
Cabinet, all the legations, offices in the army and i
n?vy, and all oth?r places in the gift of the Ex- !
eoutive, with slaveholders, by way of appeasing
the wrath of these gentlemen. Such a policy was
worse suited to France, because there are so many
monopolies, ami there is so much more cunning n
and ability in the classes which enjoy privilege^J

CONGRESS.
THlRTY-mST CIIMIRKSS-KlkST SESSION.
ft KK ATIFriday,
Junk 7, 1850.
The Senate was occupied the larger part of the
day in the discussion of the boundury of Texas,
on the amendment of Mr. Clemens affirming that
boundary as settled by her law of limits, passed
by the Congress of Texas in 18.10. The debate
was various and protracted. In the course of it,
Mr. Webster declared his opinion that it was
competent now, for the United States to briug
suit against the State of Texas for the territory
to which each laid claim ; hut, he was in favor of
settling the question by compromise.
The question was then taken on the amendment,
and the vote stood?

Mr. Foote ofl'ered the following amendment;
after which, the Senate adjourned :
' Strike out the tenth line, and to the word
'thereon,' inclusive, in the eleventh line of the
thirty-ninth section, and insert in lieu thereof,
' where the thirty-fourth degree of north latitude
crosses said river.'"
At the end of the bill add an follows:
* PronAo/, That nothing iu this ael eonl-alued
shall be so construed as tn any manner to impair
any rights which the Slate of Texas may now
have to any territory claimed l>y her, under and
by authority of her line of boundary of IS'tfi, in
the event that the terms proposed to said State of
Texas should not lie accepted, in the same manner
as If thfis net had not passed Ami jirorhM,
also, That nothing in this act contained shall be
so construed as to contravene tlie principle of
compromise on the subject of slavery embodied in
the Texas resolutions of annexation, in regard to
the Territory, the cession of which on the part
of Texas is provided for by this act."
Natijkimy, June 8, 1850.
Mr Cbnse presented some of the usual aeries
of pet itions on the subject of slavery and fugitive
slaves.
Mr. Douglas, from the Committee on Territories.
reported hack the hill from the House, entitled
"Aii set disking further appropriation for
public buildings in the Territories of Minnesota
and Oregon."
Mr D. explained the bill, and after some debate
upon its provisions by Messrs. Hutlcr, King,
Jones, Underwood, Foote, and Douglas,
The ipiestion was then taken, and the bill was
read a third time and passed
The Senate then resumed the consideration of
the bill reported by the select committee of thirteen
The i|ue?tion ponding was on an amendment
to a part of the 39th section, containing the proposed
boundaries of Texas
Mr. Clemens moved to amend the amendment I
Mr Foote explained his amendment, and ac- i
epted the amendment of Mr. Clemena as a mod- I
fication of his own.
Mr. Clay defended the boundary as reported
ly the committee.
Mr. Husk supported the proposition to make
he 34th parallel the southern boundary of New
Mexico. *
Messrs. Mangum, Clay Husk, Douglas, Foote, j
ind Pratt, continued the debate. (
Mr. Foote then withdrew his amendments.
Mr Douglas moved to strike out the whole of "
he provision. Hnd insert the following.
" ma normern nounuary or ine atate or I oxs
shall be a line drawn due enat from the Rio
jrandent the southern and of tha Jornado da)
duerto, or Journey of tha Dead, to tha Rad rivr,
and thence down the centre of eaid river; and
he eastern boundary of the Territory of New
dexlco shall be the range of mountains or diwiing
ridge separating the waters flowing Into the
Lio Orande from the waters flowing into the Aransas
and Red rivers''
Mr. Pratt gave notice of the following amendlent:
*' prowleil, That nothing herein contained
all he so construed as to amend, abrogate, or
Ifect the resolutions of annexation, it being the
rue intent and meaning of this act that tha anid
MdaDona A>b*ll not be altered, annulled, or afrcted
by anything herein contained."
Mr. Davis of Mississippi opposed tha prineile
of buying this territory at ail. He denied
lat there was any constitutional power to purbnaa
this territory from Texas: the powers of
be Government to purchase territory within the
tates were clearly and definitely limited.
Messrs. Clay, Berrien, and Downs, all expressed
different opinion. ,
Mr. Davis refilled, and Mr. Downs rejoined. I
Mr. Koote followed in support of the amend- j
lent. and in a reply to a circular lately issued r
y General Wallaoo of Mouth Carolina. He
;x)ke of the rfTect of tbia bill as in no wise deter- 1
lining tbe question of slavery.
Mr Halo followed in reaponae.
Mr. Dawaou replied to the Senator from New
[fimpahire, and read from several New iiump>lre
paper* to ehow that that Senator waa in
i.'l.l ultra in hla opposition to Abolitionist*. and t
armly aupported Mr. Van Huron?"the Northrn
man with Southern principles"
Mr. Hale rejoined ; and then, on motion, t
The Senate adjourned r
monday, ji:nk 10, !S'?0. f
After the transaction of the ordinary morning
uaineaa, the Semite at 12 o'clock proceeded to i
to consideration of the report of the Committee of t
'hirteen *
Mr. Ilenton moved that the further conaideraon
of thia bill be pontponed till the fourth of
(arch in the year one thousand eight hundred
nd fifty-one. 1 le alluded to the character of the
ill, and ita avowed object to restore p. ace and f
arvnony to a dlitreased country. He eaid that
did not beliava there wae any distress in the f
wintry. He lielieved that the nation was in the 1
ajoyment of every blessing that waa possible.
He did not imagine that any of that distress 1
nd aUrm, so movingly pictured by the Senator a
rom Kentucky, existed among the people. He a
id not believe in the existence of those five gap- (
kg wonnde aa fearfully pictured by the Seaator,
nd so omphatioally eautaerated on the Ave fin- (
gfrs of bia left hand The Senator had but five
finger* on hi* hand, and h4<\1r. 1$) thought that
I perhaps the reason why there were no more
! wounds than fire war. that the Senator had no
more finger* on hia left hand
lie then aaid that in this c.mipromise the committee
make California the scape.goat for all the
dins of slavery in the United State* ||e read
from some work to show what war the orgin of the
word scape goat, and rend a description of the capture
of the goat, the covering of his head with scarlet
cloth, and then the ceremony of the high
priest confessing over the head of the goat all the
gin* Bnd transgressions of the nation. After this,
the goat was carried to a mountain, and the cloth
being removed, he was shoved backwards down
the mountain to prevent him I'mtn jumping to
save his life lie then drew an analogy between
this proceeding atcl the conduct manifested to- ,
Wards California, by making her admission dependent
on the passage of remedies for evils growing
out of slavery.
He examined the report on the subject of the
proposed boundary of Texas, and said that one
error of the committee was, that it assumed that
there wan a difficulty existing baftween Texas and
New Mexico. There was no such thing. New
Mexico was no party. Her territory was the
property of the United States, and the difficulty i
was between Texas nnd the United States, and
was to he settled hy them. The case was one of
which the Supreme Court had original iurisdir
tion, Mill the Unit*! States had the power and
the right to bring Texas into court, ercu without
her consent.
lie then examined the boundary line proposed
by the committee, and said that, if it were adopted
mirttjprn it *about
seveu hundred thousand square miles from
the flunk of what was New Mexico, as laid down
anciently, lie cited Humboldt and other writers,
and also various maps, to show the ancient hound- ;
ariesofNew Mexico, also, to show that the territory
cut off by the liue proposed by the com- >
mil tee was the ancient pasture grounds, and
also that therein was the region wheuee the j
inhabitants of New Mexico obtained their salt
lie then alluded to the subject of slavery, and (
said that his early principles upon the subject of
the necessities of two racesdwelling together, and ;
upon the doctrine of emancipation, were derived
from reading Virginia authority. The principles
formed in early life he still maintained. He was :
opposed to indicting any evil upon any people j
which could not be remedied. He was opposed to i
extending slavery to those who hove it not.
The committee had also reported two smaller
hills which were dangling at the tail of this compromise.
He would not now discuss them. They
were not under consideration, though they formed
part of the scheme which was to be taken as a ;
whole under the penalty (not, however, suggested
by the committee) of being gaxetted as enemies to
compromise, and of being played at by the organs.
One of these organs was sadly out of tuue,
it w is cracke I and disjointed, hut still they were
called upou to danco to its music. This old organ.
which was not very good in its host days,
and whose piping Via* lophome so discordant from 1
having played so long on the four " F's "?" Kitty. '

and waiitimr in hannonw??*S11
j to dunce to its music. It is now crocked, and j
; presents wounds more gaping (bun those pointed
| out by the Senator from Kentucky lie could j
j not dunce to such music
The hills which have been taken by this com;
mittee and conjoined into a compromise, had been
, already before the Senate before this committee i
\ went out. The (California hill, the bills giving j
Territorial Governments to Utnh and New Mex- j
ico, had been reported by the Chairman of the
Committee on Territories long before this corn- [
I mittee went out. The hill respecting fugitive
| slaves hHil heen reported early in the session by
J the. Committee on the Judiciary ; a portion of
! that part of the hill rehiring to Texas hud heen
| introdnced by himself They ivoro all on the t.<- j
j hies of the Senators. It was said that a rose by (
any other name would smell as sweet. ThiH did (
uot hold good in this respect. These hills, when
| laid on the tables of Senators, did not, it would
j appear, smell at all; they did not reach the olfac,
lories of the nation at all. Hut as soon as this
l grand committee took them up, and their adopted
father placed them together, then they became
I something great, an 1 the whole nation experienI
ces their odor, lie did not know how this could
hp accounted for lie could not understand it.
He was a reading tnan, and read the papers, particularly
the advertisements. Ho would call the
attention of the Senate to an extract from an advertisement
of old Dr. Jacob Townscnd's sarsapirilla.
It would be remembered that there was
a young Dr. Townsend. who alao manufactured a
ssrsiiparilla b?lsaiu. They both extracted from
the same root, yet there was a great difference
between their syrups
The old Doctor arocss'ds in his advertisements
to give the reason for this. Mr. 11 then read an
extract from the advertisement of Dr. Townsend,
which was something to the fotlowtng effect
" liulike young S. P. Townsend's, it improves
with age, and never changes, hut for the better;
because it la prepared on scientific principles by a
mrnfijte mnn. The highest knowledge of chein
lutry nnu tne latest discoveries or the Art have
all been brought into requisition in the iwnnufacture
of the Old Or'it Barsaparilla The sarsaparilla
root, it in well known to medical men, containt
many medicinal properties, and some properties
which are inert or useless, and others
which, if retained in preparing it for una, produce
fermentation and acid, which ia injurious
to the syttem. Some of the properties of the
sarsaparilla are bo rolntilr that they entirely i
evaporate and are lost in the preparation if they i
are not preserved hy a srirutifir protein, known only '
to those experienced in its manufacture More- ,
over these rohitilt pritiripbs, which tiy off in va- |
por, or at an exhalation under heat, are the very
msmlutl tn'ifiail projvrtm of the root, which give '
to if all its value."
Mr. I), said that the tecret wot, that the volatile
projierties which the old doctor, being a scientific
man, secured ami preserved, slipped
through the lingers of the young doctor, and
were lost to the medicine The old doctor also '
had a caution iu his advertisement, which warned
the publio that they would know the preparation '
of the old doctor, as none was genuine unless his 1
name w is labelled upon it.
Mr. Halo followed Mr. Heuton, in reply to
the personal assault made upon him by Mr. Ibiw?on,
who repeated his remarks. A tier which, the
Senate adjourned.
