FRIDAY, MARCH Is, 1874.
OF STATE.

John c.. Calhoun has been nominated and unan-
imously confirmed by the Senate as Secretary of
State. In many respects, no man is better fitted
to conduct the pending negotiation in relation to
Oregon, than MIR Calhoun. His prudence, sagaci-
ty, and foresight; his intimate acquaintance with
our foreign relations, his well-known views upon
the subject of our Western Territory, his high
character and reputation, peculiarly fit him for this
task. While he is strongly American in his feel
ings, he has no petty hate against out mother coun-
try. The selection of such a man to conduct the
negotiation is a compliment 10 the British minister
and to the British government.
But there is one reason why we look upon this
nomination with deep regret. Mr. Calhoun is in
favor of the annexation of Texas to the Union. 1t
is understood that a negotiation in relation to this
subject is now pending with the Texan minister.
Although il be true that Texas cannot be annexed
to the Union by the mere treaty making power, nor
without the action of both houses of Congress, yet
il appears TO us that there is great danger of that
deplorable result being effected, unless the people
the people Of the North in their majesty, make
their voices heard in thunder tones at Washington.
With a slave-holding President, and a slavehoiding
Cabinet, with the great genius of the slaveholding
interest at the head Of the State department, with
a Senate, one half of whom are from the slave
states, with a house ready to sacrifice patriotism
and country at the altar of private ambition and
party success, what is there not to fear'
The slave power feel the sceptre of dominion
trembling in their hands, and their throne tottering
beneath them-and they look to the annexation of
Texas-dnd 10 that alone, TO restore them to domin-
ion and empire. To effect this they will make a
desperate death-struggle. The nomination of Mr.
Calhoun will inspire them with courage, with en-
ergy, with power. Let the friends of liberty and
humanity awake to the danger.

New HAMPsHIRE.-The general election in this
State took place on Tuesday last. We are not yet
informed of the result, although of that we presume
there is little doubt,
We see by the Newport Argus and Spectator,
that Gov. Hubbard, by a letter bearing date the 9TH
inst, has reiterated his views in regard 10 corpora
tons, and says he does "not perceive the necessity
or expediency of any change in the existing laws
of the State upon the subject" This is undoubt-
edly the feeling of a large majority of his party, and
the friends of rail roads in that State may as well
submit to their fate without a struggle.

CONGRESS-.
Monday. Feb. %.

MONDAY, feD. 10.
SENATE.-Mr. Upham presented the pc
ution OF EbeueLer Swan for a pension
Mr.. Dayton of New. Jersey continued his
speech land an excellent one it was,) upon
the Oregon question. He deseryedly re-
buked the rampant spirit of Benton & Co.
who are for getting up a war for party pur-
poses.
HousE.-Slavery again on the tapis. Mr..
Holmes Of S. c. brought up the subject by
the following resolution, IN which he in-
stantly moved the previous question, thus
cutting of debate
ResOiued, That the people Of the slave
holding States and Territories of the Union,
and of the District of Columbia, have a
right not only to their property in slaves,
but to the enjoyment of that right in peace,
unmolested by Federal action and that the
receipt of any petition, memorial or resolu-
ton touching that right of property, is a
gainst the spirit of the Constitution, a gross
interference with the right Of the States, and
a disturbance of the peace and safety Of the
Union.
This was almost pushed TO a vote, when
Mr.. Belser Of Alabama succeeded in arrest
ing the question, when a series of resolu-
;ions (ndopted by the Locofoco National
Convention in IS40) were presented by Mr..
Campbell Of S. G.. as a substitute for the
above. Mr.. Adams and others wished to
debate them, 10 offer amendments, &c. but
nothing of the sort was allowable, as the
previous question had been instantly de-
manded. These resolutions were divided
and voted upon as follows
DJ MI. T,...oo - zz.-l H..
forbid the Federal Government to foster one
branch of industry to the detriment Of an
other, or to cherish the interests of one por-
ton, to the injury of another portion of our
common country.
Adopted; ayes l6l-noes A. Messrs.
Adams Grinnell and Winthrop of Mass. and
Severance of Maine.
Resofred, That every citizen, and every
section of the country, has a right to demand
and insist upon an equality of rights and
privileges, and to a complete and ample
protection of persons and property from do
nestle violence or foreign aggression.
Adopted yeas III, nays none.
Resolrod, That Congress has no power
under the Constitution, TO interfere with, or
control the domestic institutions of the
several States and that such States are the
sole and proper judges of every thing apper-
tanning to their own affairs, not prohibited
by the Constitution
Several Southern members objected that
Congress has no business to give any opin-
ion on this matter-that if they can affirm
these doctrines, they have a right also to
deny them. They asked to be excused
from voting. Refused; and the reso-
luton was adopted ayes ISL noes
Messrs. Adams Of Mass and Vance of Ohio
-2.
Rcsolred, That all efforts of the Alb
olitionists or others, made TO induce Con-
gress to interfere with questions of slavery,
or to take incipient steps in relation thereto,
are calculated to lead to the most alarming
and dangerous consequences, and that all
