The House appointed Tuesday last for tho
election Of a U. s. Senator for the short term,
but the Senate had not concurrcd at the latest
adviccs. There is much speculation about the
Senator, and no one can forsce the result
The correspondent Of tho True Democrat thinks
majority of the Wings arc in favor Of Gid
dings, but il is by no means certain that enough
of them will unite to ensure his election
There is some talk on the part of the Hunkcrs
of both parties Of clecting Gov. Wood.
In the House on the 18th Mr.. Pow of Ma
honing, from the Committee on Federal Rela-
tons, reported resolution asking Congress to
repeal the Fugitive Law. 1t was laid on the
table &c to "a. This looks bad
In the Senate on the llth Mr.. Sutlif intro
duced series of resolutions, declaring that
Congress has no right to logislate on the subject
of fugitives from service that the late Fugitive
law is unconstitutional; that it ia the duty of
State Courts. to allow the hahcas corpus that
it is the duty of Congress to repeal the law,
sc. The resolutions were ordered to be print
ed, together with an amendment offered by Mr..
Pmdec declaring the law inhuman and hostile
to the spirit of the age, and instructing Sena-
tors and requesting Representatives to use their
best endcavors for its repeal.
