WASHINGTON, Sept. 7, 1851

WASHINGTON, Sept I, 1850.
The bill for the admission of California
was taken up in the House to-day. and
when It WIS announced by the Speaker the
usual struggle was made for the floor, but,
as anaitcr OF course, it was assigned to 1.-The
gentleman from cntucky," Mr. Boyd, who
moved to amend the bill by adding the bill
to establish Territorial Government for
Utah. A point OF order was nlcrpo. cd
that they were not congruous subjects, but
this was overru!lcd by the Speaker. AN
appeal was taken from this decision, and 1t
was, in turn, overruled by the House by
vote Of ll5 to 81, and SO Mr.. BOYD was ruled
off the floor. Mr.. Thompson OF AIississippi,
then offered as al amendment the subsli-
tute proposed by Mr.. Soulc in the Senate,
and in short and impressive speech, urged
It's adoption as measure of justice 10 The
South aud of peace to the Union. Mr.. Orr,
by leave Of MIR Thompson, offered to amend
tho bill by providing that her Southern
boundary should be on the parallel OF :}6

Mr.. Orrssamcndmen,. it was rejected
ayes -, noes 1872 So much for the Mis-.
souri, Compromise line, which Mr.. Footc
has so often asserted could bc carried
through Congress. The question was next
taken on Mr. Thompson's substitute, and il
was rejected by still more decisive ma.
joritJ--ayes Gl, noes l3i. The bill was
then put on ts third reading, which was
carried d-ayes Isl, noes 81: and 1t was i'm.
mediately read third time and passed.
