New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1850-06-06

In the Senate Mr.. Yulee called up his re-
solution of inquiry about the Presidents
Cuba message; but it did MT come, and Mr..
Yulee had to suffer rather hard hit from
Mr.. Webster by way of consolation. Mr..
Bradbury also tried to get up bis resolution
about removals from Office, but that was also
q failure, and the Omnibus bill came upon
the carpet.
The Senate now took hold of the bill as if
its stock of preliminary talk were at last
exhausted, and proceeded to vote upon the
various pending amendments. Their votes
are given at length in our dispatch, where
the reader will see that sectional divisions to
some extent disappeared in the general COM
plication.
The first amendment in order was that
Of Mr.. Chase proposed as an amendment to
JEFF. Davis's amendment to the original bill.
Davis moved that the restriction which the
Bill imposes against the passage by the pro-
posed territorial legislatures Of any laws
on the subject of Slavery should not be con-
strued to forbid them from passing laws pro-
tecting the rights of property Chase moved
that this amendment should not be con-
strued so as TO authorize the introduction Of
Slavery. This was voted down, % ayes, 80
nays. Mr.. Webster voting with other Free
State Senators in the affirmative and Mr..
Clay in the negative.
Next came Davis's amendment which was
lost "a to 81 Mr.. Clay voting yea, Mr..
Dickinson being the only Free State Senator
among the yeas, while from the Slave States
Mr.. Benton and Mr.. Spruance voted nay.
Next Mr.. Seward moved to add the Will
mot Proviso to the bill, which was lost, %
to 80. Cass, Dickinson, Dodge of Iowa,
Sturgeon and Webster voting among the
Southerners in the negative.
Mr.. Berrien then moved to amend the
bill so as to restrict the Legislatures from
passing any law either prohibiting or estab-
fishing African Slavery, which was carried
so to "a. Dickinson, Sturgeon and Web
ster voting ay, and Benton and Under
wood, Southerners, voting nay.
Mr.. Hale then attempted to add after the
word establishing as introduced by Berri-
ems amendment, the word allowing
which failed 81 to SO, Bright, Cass, Cooper,
Dickinson, Dodge of Iowa, Sturgeon and
Webster voting Nay.
Mr.. Chase then moved to strike out the
words prohibiting African" which would
have left the sort of Slavery referred to
shade less definite, but this failed without
o count.
Finally, Mr.. Douglas moved to strike out
all relating to Slavery, which was lost q to
33. On this Mr.. Clay voted along with
some Free Sellers, in the affirmative, while
Baldwin, Bright, Davis Of Mass, Dodge of
Wis, Hale, Smith, Walker, Webster and
Whi,comb, all from Free States, were in the
negative.
The Senate was unusually full, only two
seats being vacant, that Of Mr.. Wales Of
Del. who is absent, and that lately filed by
Mr.. Elmore, of S. c. deceased. The fullest
votes were on the motion to apply the Will
mot Proviso, when only MesSrs. Berland
and Douglas did not answer, and on Mr.
Hale's amendment when Mr.. Douglas
again failed to come up to the scratch.
AT the adjournment another amendment
81. fishing Peonage in the Territories, ex-
Oept 50 far as it may be ama'''r OF p'S''0n-
tract v as pending.
