You win observe by the proceedings Of the Senate,
report Of which is herewith sent that that body
occupied TO- day, in great measure, with Mr.. Foote's
resolution to refer the slavery question to committee
Of thirteen which debated ct considerable length
but without coming to vote the consideration Of the
subject laid till tomorrow cannot give
much hopes Of the success Of this movement.
Mr. Caes has the floor for to and II Is under
stood that he will take bold conservative ground the
question Of slavery and the agitation growing out of
His friends confident that he will nulfy ct once
the effects Of Sewsrd speech. That be easily done,
for the truth is Stewards ultra prosavery sentiments
have made little impression His speech Is looked
upon by the moderate members Of both sections In
tended for only the Northern and Eastern fanatics
am informed that Mr.. Webster's views do not meet
the appreciation Of and will not be supported by, the
New York delegation.
Mr.. Benton and Gel. Fremont, his n.inlaw sp-
peared before the Grand Jury to day in relation to the
celebrated woolly horse Both extremely in
dsnant ct the trick but the humbug Is transparent
that people ridicule the idea Of much being made
oft.
The Senate got to stand stil to- day, In executive
session, on the promotion Of Lieutenant Ewsll, who
was nominated to MI Q vacancy In the Dragons.

GRASrrNc AMBITioN or THE Ten GOVERNORS
Official personoges, when complimented for their
Judicious reforms, frequently upset all their good
deeds by the most mischievous " good intentions" ="
The ten Governors Of the Almshouse, IN their re-
cent repor-hiehly creditable, generally, as the
Hralfs recent elaborate analysis Of that report
represented it to behave asked for extraordinary
powers, in defiance of all the civil rights belonging
20 the poor and unfortunate, and have hurried into
the Legislature to gain the object Of their desires
These sage reformers want powers constitutional
and unconstitutional deliberately demand that
the Governor of the State should transfer his par
doning power to them, and the Judges and courts Of
law should permit them, without any other Judge
or jury, TO sentence and incarcera,e those wreched
beings who are the victims Of the wees Of society.
Such are the lengths which men will seek to run
into, when they stert upon what are called,mora'
reforms. The over,urnng Of the federal and the
State constitution is a mere tnfe in the way Of
their ambition. They become so accustomed to
vice and lts victims. that they see no way for extir
patton and rest aini, except in the exercise Of
powers az once summary, and contrary 10 all the
requirements Of law and justice.
The monstrous proposition Of making the w.
nanis Of the penitentiary hospital debtors to the
County, and Of forcing them to work. after they
are cured to dcfray the expenses incurred by
,heir presence in the wards Of the establishment,
thows the extent to which these modest governors
would 90 in their demands. Then, with respect
to the indentures Of apprentices, the utmost stu
Iidiiy is exhibited. Where can these governors
obtain any power to enable them to send the youth
iul poor Of tins county, without the consent Of pa
rents, into other States This is the white slavery
system generated on large scale. !, is the same
system as that carried ont by the English poor law
unions, and which has been the source Of misery
and oppression 10 thousands aud tens Of thousands
of poor English families. Such movements mus,
be checked al al hazards.

They must be checked Ia their attempts to smug.
