WASHINGTON, July 8, 1913
The Senate keeps up warm debate upon the Oregon
bill and yesterday Mr. Davis of Mass was heard long
argument upon the Northern side of the question: touching
the extension Of slavery mic free territory into the territory
of the United States The argument to the effect that
the South had received all the advantages growing out OF
the annexation Of territory and the compromises of the Con-
sttutOn. Had the territory OF the Union remained Il
was and the compromises of the Constitution continued
there would have been but 20 Senators from the South
slave States instead OF 3d. which the present number,
and the members of the House had been enlarged in
ton The argument of Mr. Davis attracted good deal of
attention and will be followed by from Mr.. Johnson OF
Md who it understood will break ground for the Mis-
sour compromise large party here forming that
basis but probably large enough to make prevailing
principle of action. Dry the subject IS and late the
session continues to command very considerable aten-
ton in Congress.
Quite controversy has arisen in the Senate relative to the
reference of the President message and matters connected
with it, Mr. Butler of South Carolina has advocated

hered to former order by vote Of II to H. that the Com
mittee on Territories shouldreport upon the subject.
The House Committee Territories. it is understood will
report bills for the Government of California and
the other for the Government Of New Mexico SUCH also,
seems be the intention of the Senate All here appehend
that there will be difficulty and perhaps serious one
in settling the question of the Texas boundary
The House has sent back the bill regulating the dismissal
of the officers of the Army to the Committee Military
Affairs and with suggestions from several quarters that those
dismissed officers and men alike receive three months extra
pay at the time of their discharge. This done at the
close of the last

GEN. S. w KEARNEY.-The distinguished Off
Ger above named arrived in our city yesterday
from Vera Cruz Among all the officers of our
army who have earned fame and glory in Mexico,
none have gained more deservedly high rePuta-
ton than Gen. Kearney, nor has any performed
services of more lasting benefit to the country, 1t
would be needless for us to recaptuae here all his
brilliant expoits-his march from Independence to
Santa Fe, and to the coasts of the Pacific-by
which all the territory have gained by the treaty
was effectualIy conquered. These things have
now become part of our history, and should be

pleasure in announcing the arrival from Vera Cruz,

one of the most gallant OF whom the army can
boast During the whole war he has although for
the most part of the time Colonel of the I'd Infan-
try been in command of a Brigade. While serving
under Gen. Taylor, his Brigade was advanced to
Monte Morelos, where it remained until the march
to Victoria, when it joined SCOTS Division. At
Contreras, being thrown upon the rear of the enc
N.Y. his Brigade the first to enter the enrenched

more than any thing else to the success ofthe cam
paigu and the subsequent victory at Churubusco.
For his gallant conduct upon that occasion, he re-
ceived his brevet as Brigader General.

Yesterday was the commencement of the Examl-
nation of the young ladies belonging TO this insttu
ton. We spent some hours there, and were much
pleased to notice great alteration for the better,
both as regards proficiency and behavior. While
there. they showed what could be done towards the
attainment of cultivated intellect, in Moral and
Natural Philosophy, Bellies Letters, Elocution,
French, Arithmetic, Geometry, etc. 1t seems they
have been made to take hold of all their studies,
beginning at the foundation, cOmprehending all that
series of instruction and discipline which is in
tended to enighten the understanding, correct the
temper and form their manners and habits, and fit
them for usefulness in their future stations To give
children a good education in manners, arts, and
science, is important and such these young ladies
have been receiving. They are preparing their
minds rightly Mrs. Pargaud, the principal, fully
comprehends the importance of her CHARGE and fills
her station to perfection Some of the young ladies
certainly show a very marked improvement in all
their studies. 1t would be improper in us to make
any invidious distinctions on this ocCasiOn-they
all did we'll
To-day the senior young ladies perform their parts,
and we say to all who feel interested not to let this
opportunity slip for hearing them, and showing by
their presence that they feel an interest in the good
cause of education.

A DEProRABLE MIsTAKE.Ait appears from the
profound logic of John c. Calhoun that we have
all, in speaking of cur Creator, taken His name in
vain, because we have no Creator, having never
been created but only born And then, we have
made another mistake, almost as deplorable, in sup
posing that we were born men, whereas we were
only born babies. But Mr.. Calhoun would do well
to consider that there are some babies that were
never born such, and to ask himself whether he
has not become one of 'em.-BostOp CtrOnOtype.

THE MEXICAN CLAMs.-The Washington Union
of the 9Th inst, says: In copying the Presidents
message, an error occurred in single word, by sub
stituting annual for quarterly. The President
states that the sum awarded to our claimants under
the Mexican commissions at 81 026, l39 69, which
sum is taken from the awards on file in the State
Department, and is perfectly correct. He adds
This sum was payable in twenty equal annual in
salments as copied, whereas it is truly stated by
the President as quarterly.
This is the error alluded to by Mr.. Rev6rdy John
son in the Senate, on Friday last, and the Union
shows by quoting from Mr.. Polk message of 1915,
that the error originated in copying, and was orr
ginally correctly written by the President.
