WAsn, NGToN, June /.
The Senate is much agitaled with the
question Of slavery in the territories.
The question comes up on The bill to
establish territorial government in Or
cgon. There is anurgenl necessity for
The immediate passage of the bill, as
shown by documents submitted by the
President to The Senate. MI. BGnton
has moved an additional section provid-
ing for the military defence of the Terri.
tory from the Indians. Mr.. Hale yester-
day brought in his 'ppstiferous question:
the slavery restriction; but, finding that
the bill, as it stood, provided in effect
for the exclusion of slavery, he with.
drew it, rssrrving the privilege of re-
newirg ii, should the bill be so amended
as to throw out that feature.
.Thh 12lh section of the DILL recoeniz-
es the laws already made by the Provi
slonaI Government Of Oregon, and one
OF these laws prohibits slavery. Mr..
Calhoun and others protested against the
righ, Of the people Of a territory to ex-
cIude from it the property of any por>
ton of The ci,izrns Of the Union. Mr..
Bright; of Indiana, as the manager Of
thu bill, proposed, as a compromise, and
with view to secure the immediate pas
sage of the bill, 10 strike out the 18th
section, thus leaving to the territory the
right 10 Iegisla,e in future on the subject
of slavery, bu, avoiding any direct re-
cognition Of her existing law for its pro-
hi6ilion. Mr., Foote and several otter
Cass men were willing to let the bill
pass in this way, waving the question as
to the right of "a territory to exclude sla>
very, for the present. Mr.. Foole cam
didly admitted, he said, tina. he did not
wish The question to be agitated now,
for the reason that it would excite the
South, and dispose them to go against
any Northern candidate for the Pr,siden-
cy. Gen. Cass, it will be recoIlected,
stands upon /. around that Congress
cannot exclude slays.y from territory,
but that the people Of the territory,
through their local Legislature, can do
it.
Mr.. Calhoun declared that Mr.. Brighrs
proposition would no, remove the diff
Guilty. 1t left TO the territory full power
over the subject He insisted upon the
adoption of carefully considered pro-
vision, reported last session, by the
Committee on the Judiciary, which ef.
fectually inhibits the territorial LegIsla'
ture from making any law for the pro-
hibition of slavery.

As party, we ought not 10 mistake
the signs Of the times; bul should bear in
mind, that this is an age Of progress-of
advancement in all the clemens of in
tellec,ual powers, and in the opinions Of
the world. The general government
should assume no powers-it should ex-
ercise none which have moi been clearly
granted by the parties to the federal
compact. We ought 10 construe the
constitution strictly. according to the
received and sound principles of the Jef-
fcrson school. But while rash expert
ments should be deprecated, if the gov
eminent is stationary in lis principles of
action, and refuses to accommodate its
measures, within its constitutional sphere
cautiously indeed, but wisely and
cheerfulIy-to the advancing sentiments
and necessities of the age, it will find its
moral force impaired, and the public will
determined 10 do what the public author
ily itself should readily do, when the in
dications of popular sentiment are clear
and clearly expressed.
With great respect. gentlemen, l have
the honor 10 be your obedient servant,

no, true that the world hates piety.-
The modest and unobstrusive piety
hich fills the heart with al! human
charities, and makes man gentle to-
others and severe to himself, is an object
of universal love and veneration. But
mankind hates the lust Of power when it
is yelled under the garb of piety; they
hate can,ing and hypocrisy; they hate
advertisers and quacks in pirty; they do
not choose to be insulted; they love to
tear folly and impudence from the altar,
which should only be. sanctuary for
the wre,cbed and the good.-SrDNEv

Gen. Scott.

The Pittsburg Gazette contains call for
the friends of Gen. Scott. in Allegheny Co.,
to meet in convention, for the purpose OF
nominating the General for the Presidency
About 1900 hundred names appended to the
call are published, and large number were
left out, for want of room. Gen. Scott is very
popular in Pennsylvania and indeed in all the
Middle States and it is not improbable, should
there be much of contest between the friends
of Mr.. Clay and Gen. Taylor, that Scott will
receive the nomination. Or should Mr.. Clay
be nominated we should not wonder if Scott
should receive the nomination for the Vice
Presidency, provided he will accept it. He
would add much strength to the ticket.

ohio-Legislature Disorganized.

Fifteen of the seventeen Loco Focos in the
Ohio Senate abandoned their seats on Monday
last SO as to leave that body without quorum
and incapable of doing business. The excuse
given for this is that the Wing majority were
about to pass an Apportionment bill which
they denounce as unfair, unequal, and even
unconstitutional, in that it divides the County
of Hamilton into two Districts, one (Cincin-
nati) electing Senator and two Representa-
tives and the other Senator and three Rep
resentatives. This they prefer to break up
the Legislature rather than permit.
This pretext of unconstitutionality is un-
available in the premises. If those who make
it have any faith in it, they (having the entire
control of Hamilton County, have but to elect
all the Members from that County on one
ticket, and thus try conclusions with the New
Apportionment, or they may resist the division
by legal process and establish its unconstitu-
tionality if possible. But they appear to
know we'll that their position is untena5le.-
And it seems, fair, so just, SO desirable, that
the Senators should be chosen by Single Dis
tricts in Hamilton County as we'll as every
where else through the State, that we shall
deeply regret the success of their factions
experiment.
AT our last dates. the absquatulators had
not resigned, but remained in Columbus
The majority of the Senate had sent the
Sergeant at Arms to command their attend
ance in theil seats, but they refused. The
Legislature continues its daily Sessions,
though the Senate can do no business.
Unless the recusants shall be induced to
return to their duty, it is apprehended that
the State may be permanently disorganized.
as no Apportionment Law will exist under
which new Legislature can be chosen. N
