men could not we'll take part in-by blows even'
when Sam Houston gave that body just the lee
ture which it deserved-whereof he proof 49,
that he brought the Senate into decent order by
the means.
The only other occurrence in the Senate note
worthy was the presentation of pro slavery reso
lutions from North Carolina. They we're recei-
we'd and referred: nnii-slaveryism is "fanati-
cism" and can't be tolerated.
The House has been employed mainly on the
bill to enable the Secretary Of the Treasury to
collect the revenue, and the debate has been
more strictly confined TO the bill than usual. Mr.
Clay seen.s to have taken the wind out OF the
House. Thanks for that.

To the Point.

Mr Clay, in his introductory speech expapa.
tory of his resolutions, used the following pithv
language. What think the Free Solers OF Har.
ry-Clay?
al am extremely sorry to hear the Senator
from Mississippi say that he requires first, the
extension Of the Missouri Compromise line to
the Pacific, and also that he is not satisfied with
that, but requires, if understood him CORRECTLY.
positive provision for the admission of slavery
south of that line. And now, sir, coming from
a slave state, as do, l ow, it to myself, / owe
it to truth, owe it to the subject, to say that
no earthly power could induce inc to vote for
specific measure for the introduction of slavery
where it had not before existed, either south or
north of that line. Coming as do from slave
stale. it is my solemn, deliberate, and well ma
tured determination that no power, no earthly
power, shall compel me TO vote for the positive
introduction of slavery either south or north of
that line. Sir, while you reproach, and Justly
too, British ancestors for the Introduction Of
this institution upon the continent of America.
am, fer one, unwilling that the postcrity of the
present inhabitants Of California and of New
Mexico shall reproach US for doing just what we
repfoach Great Britain for doing 10 U.s."

Such resolution carried out into practice would
save the State of Vermont a. least $50 900 an
