The Questions Settled.

The Questions Settled
II gives US pleasure TO inform our readers
this week that al! the bills, embraced in the
Compromise Bill has, after great effort,
finally passed both Houses Of Congress-
They are
The bill relating to the Boundary Of Texas
and the Territory Of New Mexico;
The bill to admi, the Stale Of California into
the Union;
The bill To establish a Territorial Govern
ment in Utah aud
The bill relative to Fugitive Slaves.
The three first have been ,igned by the
President and have therefore become laws.
The last one will also no doubl receive The
Executive sanction. A certified copy OF the
Texss Boundary &C, has been despatched by
mo Secretary OF Stale To the Government OF
Texas ny special messenger, for her accep.
lance.
Never, in our opinion, has a greater ef.
fort been made to pass a bill than was called
forth on the Texas Boundary bill. Ii had
been We think rejected twice and the SPca'
ker even expressed the opinion that the bill
could no: be reconsdeted again. But an ar
peal was taken from The decision Of the
chair, and the House dad not sustain him.
The bill IVES again rccOnsidered and finally
passed BY the following vote:
