The Washington Union of Friday last, says: The
protest of the Senators against the California bill
called forth another and interesting debate yester
day. 1t finally resulted in laying the whole subject
on the table by vote Of % to 10.
ssAs soon as the question had been terminated Mr..
Douglass called up the engrossed bill for regulating
the territorial government of New Mexico. There
was no further debate on the bill and on taking
the question by yeas and nays, the bill was passed
by vote of 81 10 10.
"This bill has passed the Senate entirely Invested
of the Wilmot Proviso. But it is believed by some
that in the House of Representatives motion will
be made to amend it, as well the Utah bill, by
attacking the Wilmot Proviso 10 it. We cannot be-
eve that it win be attended with success; for more
liberal spirit begins to prevail in this respect
the North and Northwest, as we find by the extra
ordinary meoration of the public sentiment in Mich
igan and Indiana and other States, and also among
many of the members of Congress. But should i
unfortunately pass the House of Representatives, i
will be arrested in the Senate''

would delight in nothing much in the passage of
the proposed bill That would effect it sooner or later

healed 1t will of itself Disunon party there

We trust, however, that the California BILL If un-

us. The Southern people becoming and more
united and decided When time is thus given-when
the argument is exhausted and the consequences arc
obvious the South will have done her duty-the North
may take the responsibility.
The Southern Press of the l4h inst, contains the
passage of the California bill by the Senate and says
the time has been when the country looked TO the
Senate The South must now LOOK TO THE
HOUSE; or, at least, we suppose, the Southern por-
ton Of it, TO obstruct the wheels of legislation We
hope that such the indicates by the
resolutions and the Southern organ will be pursued
but that the already passed by the Senate
will also pass the House, and that Congress will
speedily adjourn.
The Washington Union, speaking of the late meet
ing Of Southern Representatives, says: "We have
been informed that about forytwo persons were pre-
SENT and that twelve of those dssented from the po-
sition of the majority If this be so, the almost en-

The Valley Of The Allegheny River.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
SlR-As the New York and Erie Railroad will
soon each the Allegheny River at or near Oean,
propose to draw attention to the importance Of
carrying branch road down the valley Of that river
to Pittsburgh.
OF the importance of Pittsburgh with it com
manding position, and its vast local resources, it ID

wish rather to speak of the country between
Olesn and Pittsburgh-the Valley Of the Ale

1t is a remarkable fact, that the Allegheny

and even on these il is subject to great loss and in
convenience, because it is only at short intervals

The products of the forest are OF the most valua

Much Of the land ON the route here indicated is
