RON our CORRESPONDENT AT WASHING TON.
Saturday, February 60.
A call ofthe house which took place yes
terday, produced fuller house than was
ever Known before since the origin Of the
union. On question taken by ayes and
n ,e,, there were on one side ninety votes,
and on the other eighty-seven-hard and
even running you will say-the saddle
skirts almost touching each other-and that
too upon the business Of slavery. With re-
spect to the new territory OF Arkansas, the
question is determined, and, by way 81
making prosperous beginning, accompa-
MED by the blessing Of God, slave-holding
is established there by statute--by the laws
of our free and independent national legis-
lature.
1t is a fact, that during the debate
on this business, a string Of negroes
were marched along under the walls, and
in sight Of the windows, manaeled with
long chain, the links of which were
thicker than waggonor slough chain,
while that benevolent free citizen the
driver, rode along with them, seated in
hel!ish majesty upon his steed, whom, no
doubt, he probably more than hey consl-
dered all the time as the most respectable
being, next to himself in the cavalcade-it
was fine practical comment on what was
passing in the Congress house, and was
seen by two or three members wohm acct.
dent brought at the time to the window.
The smallness Of the majority on the
question, however, is consoling, as it shows
that stronger light is breaking upon our
national councils And who knows but in
few years, we may actually be as we'll as
boast Of being the champions of freedom
and the rights OF man.
In the end the Arkansas territory was
raised TO the dignity Of territorial govern
ment--and after that, the bill from the Sc.
nate admitting Alabama as state into the
union, was read third time and passed.
The vocal concert advertised for this
evening at the Theatre, has every attrac-
ton for the musical amateur. The songs
are well selected, being the newest and
most fashionable of the present day. Mr.
Brennan is said to be unrivalled in his style
of singing, having the pathos of Braham,
with more musical voice. Mr.. E. Bre-
nan has basetone voice of the richest qua
lily, which has beautiful effect in duets
and glees. Mr. Hewitt, we hear, is an
eminent performer on the violin. We are
happy to see so rich an entertainment ad-
vertised for the evening OF the nata! day of
our beloved Washington.
